He Is Seen in the Nooks of Summer Gardens, the Quietest Corners of Quiet Restaurants and Always With a Woman to Whom He Is So Devoted He Gives Him- self Away. ey By MARGUERITE MARTYN. BOUT the most numerously conspicuous fig- A ure in town these days iS the summer : widower, He isn't flaunting himself or trying to ‘attract attention. Oh, no. His motives are baser than that. He intends to be not only very gay but really devilish; which involves being sly and pocretive and careful not to be found out. That’s why we seeKers after the most quiet, well-behaved diversion, encounter the summer widower so numerously in the out-of-the-way places, in darksome corners of restaurants, the shadiest nooks. of the summer garden, the most unfrequented trolley routes, the most remote road houses, everywhere they least expect‘to meet us. Summer widowers seem the more numerous be- cause we all are seeking the sequestered places away from the.madding summer crowds if we aro catholic in our tastes and wise. But even if they were not sO numerous they would be conspicuous anyway. They get in your way so. Must Pretend to Be Oblivious __ When You Meet Them With Ladies \": come upon them suddenly, defenselessly.

They bob up and arrest your attention, thrust themselves upon you unwelcome, compelbling your notice. They are inconvenient chiefly be- cause you feel obliged to seem oblivious when you discover them dining, each with a lady, and happen to know their wives are out of town. For society's sake you cannot approve of such ecnduct. Even though you have not a personal acquaint- ance with them, you may never have laid eyes upon the individual summer widower before, you can't escape him, you can’t avoid recognizing him as such by unmistakable signs. He doesn’t shake off the attitude and habits of peter familias in a day. His efforts to be a “gay dog” in that combination of common sense shoes and summer fiannels cut in a style about once removed from a smoking jacket; that par- ticular stoop and rotundity that has come to him as, an habitual occupant of an arm chair in the chimney corner, are distinguishing points. If they weren’t his manner would be a dead give-away. He Is. Utterly Unable to Act ‘that exists against the 3 his attentions on too thickly. the Part of Eligible Bachelor N the first place, his open-handed generosity, his flattering attitude, his appreciation of the most trivial feminine favor, all distinguish him: from the eligible unmarried man any day. He can’t be expected to become an accomplished actor all of a sudden, this lately model, law- abiding, family man. If he does manage to af- fect a disguise, it is difficult to divine his part with exact nicety and precision, so he usually overacts the thing. He wants to seem fascinat- ing, debonnaire, youthful, in fact, but he spreads He seems to fear he has so little time in which to ingratiate him- “self, he gets all panicky, and the volume of his devotion to the lady opposite him would attract attention and make him conspicuous anywhere.

moved away. He brushes his thin hair over his bald spot, pulls his belt as many notches as it will stand and enlists the assistance of other deserted husbands to discover almost any port in the storm. The saddest failure of the effort served in the large groups of men you see sitting about together over round foam splashed tables in the summer gardens. They look bored and dejected and groggy, as if almost any distraction would be welcome. So don’t flattér yourself when you are the distrac- tion, little girl. Having Married One Woman He Thinks He Knows About Women O. go back to the defense of the summer 7 widower, I began with the one who has been fortunate enough to discover a sum- mer girl who has a spare moment in this, her busy season, to bestow upon him. No doubt he is having a “time.” He is in the frame of mind, having married one woman, to flatter himself that he knows women and that he has a way with them. The summer girl has only to sit and smile. She may let her eyes grow big and awed in appreciation of the expensive foods and drinks and joy rides he buys. But she doesn’t need to introduce any new tricks of ‘her own and he is perfectly enter- tained. It is not until he has wakened up many mornings with an awful head in a. cobwebby, crash-enshrouded, empty house with no one to minister to him; it is not until all the summer girls, like honey bees flitting from flower to flower, have passed him by or left him stung with some web mee sti remark, that he realizes CHORUS GIRL TRIES TO FIND THE RIGHT COLOR NE of the Delmar chorus girls was a bit off C) rer feed not long since, and she went to a doctor to see what the matter was. “Jack” Kearney is authority for this version of what happened there. “] think it’s your stomach,” said- the doctor gravely, after the chorus girl had related her symptoms with a wealth of detail. .“Honust, Doc, I believe you are right.

He must take after his mother in that, because I never saw the day I couldn't figure a ‘dutch’ bodk just by running my eye down the column. Well, one day not long ago this kid of mine goes to the corner grocery, where his mother often sends him when she wants some little thing In a hurry, and he saya to the grocery, he says, "Gimme three baskets of straw- berries at 18 cents and 20 pounds of sugar at oh. conts ® — Pa 2 — rt “ ‘Sure,’ says the grocer, putting it down. | “And 10 cakes of soap at 6 cents, and a gallon | of molasses at 9% cents a quart, and 10 pounds'| of bacon at 12 cents a pound, and five pounds of | tes. at 90 cents a pound, and a gross of candles at; 2» cents a dozen, and a dozen cans of tomatoes at | two for a quarter, ané 100 clothespins at 5 cents | a dozen, and I guess that'll be all,” said the, kid. referring to a piece of paper he held in his, hand. ‘How much will that be?’ “The grocer figured for a few minutes. ‘It will} be $13.24,’ he said. ‘Tell your mamma I'll send the order by the next delivery.’ *““‘Oh, never mind about that,’ sald the kid, Th just wanted you to do my arithmetic lesson for | me!’ ”’ ——— TONY FAUST TELLS ABOUT ONE OF THE HOTEL GUESTs} ONY” FAUST admits that not all of these @ who eat in his noted restaurant have ir-| reproachable table manners.

I can have all the good times I want in St. Louis. If I go to Washington I'll go like I went to Jefferson City—to work. “Ask the boys who were at Jefferson City if I wasn’t at my desk an hour or so before the Scnate was called to order every morning, and i’ I didn’t stay in the evening until I had every- thing cleaned up.

You know what I mean, one man wanting some- thing for his district or section, and supporting 2 lot of other men’s bills for their sections just to get their votes for his bill, and without ever knowing or caring whether their bills are any 500d or not. Some people may think that’s the orly way. to run a legislative body, and I under- stand there’s a lat of that sort of thing in Con- gress. But I’ve kept out of it pretty well so far in the House of Delegates and the State Senate. If I've got a bill that’s any good, I'll tell the other members the good points about.it, and I'll tell the committee that gets the bill all about it, and-.if they don’t think it ought to go through on its own merits, let them go ahead and kill it. ‘Cause I won't promise to vote for any old bill they may bring along.” Really, there ought to be some way of warning Washington. A Congressman who would actually set about to abolish log-rolling, the time-honored means Of siphoning money from the public treas- ury, would cause more alarm in that city than would be felt if the Washington monument should suddenly list to an angle of 60 degrees. For it Was log-rolling—you help roll my log and I'll help roll yours—that put the Capitol itself on the banks of he Potomac; and log-rolling is estab- lished there on as firm a basis, to all appearances, as the Smithsonian Institution. But if log-rolling « Ought to be “rolled,” and many have said it ought to be, ‘fom Kinney, who has been rolling obstacles our of his own way ever since he was a newsboy, may be the gran to do it. ; Thinks Economy Would Be Good Issue for Democrats. 44,7 might cut down the appropriations a few | hundred millions,” Kinney sd@id, “if only the bills were passed that had some merit to them.

I will say if you took away their part from the sum total of the revival of frish art, it would suffer gregily. 1 Should speak of them more at length, but, being a woman, I can, through my very intellectual limitations, be more judicial in my estimation of embroidery twist and more absolute and trrefuta- ble In-my arguments about the way @ fan ought to wave; so I shall. not pre- sume t oanalyze the art of William Or- pin—the Irish Sargeant, or George Rus- sel, the most original and characteris- tic artist of Ireland at the present day; nor Jack Yeats, who does the common peasant type s6 well, or Nathaniel Hone, the oldest and most elemental of them all. In spite of Whistler saying there can no more be @ national art than na- tional mathematics, I am deeply rooted in my woman's prejudice that there is an Irish art. The fairies that you see in George Russell's pictures in the art and James Reardon of St. Louls are Irish fairies. I have seen them myself in the mists on the mountains. They would be out of. place in a pastoral pic- ture of the environs of St. Louis..

STAND PIPE SWIM NEAR FATAL|; KALAMAZOO, Much., Aug. 13.—Using the city standpipe as a swimming pool, George Kingston, 6, would have drowned except for the arrival of his father. The top of the pipe is @ feet above the ground, reached by ladders. Young Kingston climbed to the top, let him- self over the edge and dropped into the 60 feet of water. Henry Kingston, the father, saw George climbing and fol- lowed, reaching the top just in time to grasp the boy as he sank. The boy said he had seen men swim- ming in the tank, and thought he would try it.

the revival of Irish art and you ‘sepa- rate root from branch. Only, happily, it is not a mattet of dispute in Ireland; everywhere the work of women Is ac-. corded grateful acknowledgment by men, and while here my ears. have had a welcome rest from the some- what tiresome and daily belittling of feminine activity; arguments so trite, and arguers themselves so futile in their own field that they can only justify their conceit as the last infirmity of little minds, by enforcing the arrogance of sex. On the contrary, Mm Ireland, there is everywhere co-operation be- tween men and women and no compe- tition. P And nowhere is that vealed than: in the most” unique of all the art revivals; the staining of glass as it was done in the Middage Ages. We all know the _ hideous mockery of our picture windovw- saints in machine made glass; where irreverent artists, indifferent atisan and sodden workmen have mechanhiz- ed and stereotyped this religious and once beautifully personal art. Its deterioration has le@ us to believe that the staining of glass as an art is HS Meh “Of a secret to a modern mind,,as. .. she. constryction of the py rariid ss pm t go to a little shop ina “sid atreet of Dublin and see it revived, a) it was done in those reverent Catholic Ages when artist and -craftsfian were one and _ the stains’ painted in glass was as per- sonally his,.and ‘as true a work of art aS any done in fresco. Here you will see a.group of eight artists, four of whom are women, all work- ing together and yet apart; co- operative and yet tindividual and each equal to the other. They are artists not men overseers and wom- en drudges. The one who makes the first. design goes on with the creat- ing of the window picture, working withthe: stained glass, as the ar- tist »with hls brushes, adding, sub- duing, enriching. better re- Poorest Church Insista Upon Stained Glass Window. MEIR subjects are new and are T given original treatment; for the rich storehouse. of Irish sacred legend is inexhaustible. No country at present is so fertile a fiela for the growth of this art: for Catholi- cism in Ireland is medieyal in its force and prestige. The poorest coun- try church must havé a window where the life history of its chief local saint can be pictured in beautiful col- oring. * Previous to the establishing of this “Tur Goine” or .‘Tower of Glass as this communistic group of artists is called, Ireland sent $185,000 annual- ly to Munich for foreign work done with modern spiritleéssness. As ] looked at the last completed work, scenes from the lifeof Saint Columb- kill is seemed to be the lost art of medieval stained glass come to rich ana giOwing life. And it was all the Ww ork of one woman, from the draw- img “on paper to the last bit of jew- eng jit ‘tlie halo of the saint. -And who was the creator or creatrix rath- er, of the movement? It. was’ the brain of a woman, in spite of its be- ing one cell less than a man’s, that originated, organized and now holds together this work. Miss Sarah Pursur of Dublin first conceived. this seemingly impracti- cable project that now fits easily into the demand for it. She is another ex- ample of the “effete” aristocrat be- lfeingly portrayed as sinking through laixury and idleness into decadence and dragging the country by the way. Miss Burgur, herself an artist of academic recognition, seven years ago nad’ an idea that Irish artists working with Irish glass and following Irish traditions might together revive this beautiful medieval art and at the same time do great industrial good; that Ireland itself should produce the art that its still religious _ spirit craved for expression. Being an independently rich woman she financed her scheme and brought all her .social prestige to aid in its upbuilding, but it is not the fad of a moment, nor a dilettante’s pastime, Miss’Pursur herself has made many of the most. exqtisite examples of the staining of glass.

Govern- lows: One of the most singular features of the evolution through which our politics is passing is the silence of the Democratic camp. Great is the tumult of shouting and of battle throughout the country, but always it is a battle of insurgents against stand-patters, never of Democrats against Republicans. Even the fa- mous Democratic congressional vic- tory in Massachusetts was won un- der the leadership of an insurgent Republican. Where is the Democratic statesman that will give a policy to his party? Where the orator that will utter the words of inspiration? Where the lead- er that will point out the path and show the way? Doubtless there is some show of policy on the part of Democracy in keeping silent at this juncture s0 as' not to disturb the faction fight in the Republian camp, but if so, it is a deceitful show, and a timid poll- cy. It is the duty of the opposition to be always vigilant, vigorous and valiant in opposing the wrongs arid usurpations af the party in power. Why does it not do so? Why was it silent in the House and in the. Sen- ate all winter? Why is it silent in the country now? Democrats Not Silent. Congressman Clark takes exception to the declaration that Democracy in the House was “‘silent.’’ He replies by de- tailing a number of tactical advan- tages which the House Democrats un- der his leadership gained, usually in al- liance with the Republican insurgents of the House. Under the head of actual achievements he mentions the changes effected tn the railroad rate bill and the rule to prevent committees fy6m pigeonholing bills. The regulars voted for the latter measure, but Clark says they did so unwillingly, and for fear of a more radical one. ‘ His letter, in full, is as follows: BOWLING GREEN, Mo., Aug. 7, 1919. To the Editor of the Post-Dis- patch. I inclose your editorial of this date, entitled ‘“‘Silent Democracy,’ in which you charge uncanny si- lence on the part of Democrats— also my interview in the Metro- politan Magazine for August, not for controversial- purposes, but simply to show you that at least one Democrat has not ween asi- lent since Congress adjourned and that he has suggested an elaborate affirmative policy for hig party. You may bar me out of consMeration as being neither a “statesman” nor an “orator,” nor a “leader,’’ but you cannot deny the fact that there are 12 affirmative propositions stated plainly and without equivocation or mental reservation. Do you not think that in ordinary fair- ness your all-embracing charge should be modified? You not only assert that De- mocracy is culpably silent now but you propound to your read- ers, of whom I am one, this ques- tion: “Why was it (Democracy) silent in the House and Senate all winter?” The senators can speak for themselves; but cer- tainly you are in error about the House Democrats being silent last winter. Take the evidence of Mr. Speaker Cannon and his lieutenants as to the fighting qualities of the House Democrats and ask them how it feels to be thoroughly drubbed. True the Democrats could have achieved no victories without the aid of insurgent Republicans for the rules of arithmetic are immutable and there was a Republican ma- jority of 47; but the 26 Republi- ean insurgents could have scored no triumphs without the 174 Democrats, So that the Democrats deserve five-sixths of the glory of Scotching Cannoism.

OF MISSOURI ARE BEING WASTED Receipts Should Have Been Millions, but Were Only $125,000 in 1909. ARE VERY HEALTHFUL

in This State to Go Else- where to Be Cured.

JEFFERSON CITY, Aug. 12.—‘Mil- lions of gallons of highly medicated Fpring waters are wasted annually in Missouri simply because their val- ues are not generally known and the demand for them is not as extensive as it ought to be and will be,” an- nounces the opening paragraph of the chapter in the 1910 Red Book, de- voted to the “Mineral Waters of Mis- sourl, Their Curative Properties.” In 1909 more than a million gallons of Missouri's natural mineral waters were shipped to the large eities of Missouri, Illinois and other states.and there sold at wholesale for about $125,000. For St. Louis this amount of money includes the receipts for medicated waters which were used for bathing purposes. Many Gallons Wasted. As it now is, what waters are not made use of for commercial purposes, including bathing, are allowed to run to waste, the consumption, not near equaling the flow at most springs. If all was bottled there would be enough natural mineral water in Mis- sour! alone to supply the entire coun- try and the income from the sale thereof, at 10 cents a gallon, would reach several million dollars. But all this is a thing for the future as the day is surely coming when not 4 drop of these precious waters will be wasted, and all will be used every- where to. give renewed health and more vigor to the invalids of the land. Beside making the above facts known about the natural mineral wa- ters of the State, Labor Commissioner J. C. A. Hiller goes further into this interesting subject with the declara- tion: “Missourians, when ill and in search of health restoring waters, need not leave the State to find them as in va- rious localities are springs, gushing forth clear and sparkling, and filled to the overflowing with medicinal qualities. The water is free to all, as a rule, and is ready without fur- ther preparations, to begin its cur- ative powers. Have Curative Properties. “And that the waters of Missouri's mineral springs have curative pow- ers is attested to by the thousands who have used them, and by the con- stant growing demand for the same. “In the Ozark regions are acres of springs of valuable and highly cur- ative .waters, now not made use of because they are not easily acces- sible and it is a difficult task to bring their product to market, but the time is coming when they will make that section of Missouri famous as a health resort. Even the regular fresh wa- ter springs of this part of Missouri have been pronounced the purest in the country, being, when not medi- cated, entirely free of foretgn sub- stances. Probably this is the chief reason why the Ozark Mountain coun- ties of Missouri have the lowest death rate for the United. 8tates, and reduce the general death rate for the State to 11.4 annually per thousand, which makes Missouri the most healthful commonwealth of them all. Earned $100,000 in 1908. In 1908 the natural mineral waters of Missouri used for commercial purposes amounted to 752,663 gallons, which amount sold for about $100,000. The gain therefore for 1909 amounts to nearly 275,000 more gallons used commercially, and the increase in receipts about §$25,- 000 making in all & magnificent sum of money to gush forth, year in and out, without any productive efforts on the part of man, from the foot hills of Missouri. As the value of these waters for medical purpose becomes better known they will be more heavily drawn on for their production. Large quantities of the mineral waters of Lewis County are being ‘shipped into Chicago through which city the knowledge of their cura- tive powers has spread. With a little more advertising there is no doubt but that Missouri can be made famous for its mineral water springs and invalids will flock into the State by the thousands in search of the fountains of youth. Many Mineral Springs. The Medicated Springs of Missouri, which are shipping out their waters and which have reported for 1909, to Super- vising Statistican Arch T. Edmonston of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, ar- ranged by counties are as follows: Clay County—Crystal Lithum Spring; Excelsior Lithia Springs; Salt Sulphur Well; Sparkling Lithia Well; Soda-Car- bonic Spring; Regent, Siloam, Soterian and Sulpho-Saline Springs. st.

Livingston and Pery Counties springs of waters, which have been pronounced very valuable by the medi- cal profession for certain ailments and which are being freely used in many sections.

tT OD AE te OD ALLA LE MILK CAN RATTLER FINED $60 PARIS, Aug. 13.—The question was de- bated in court whether the rattling of milk cans in the morning is a disturb- ance of the peace or a necessary sound. M. Wilrotte, a bootmaker in the Rue de Bagneux, whose shop is next door to a dairy, declared that the noise made

by his neighbor in the small hotire Ot) kote oe y the morning prevented him from sleep- i : ing. He had suffered in health in con- sequence and claimed $2000 damages, After much discussion the Court came to the conclusion that the dairyman must move his milk cans without creat- ing a nuisance, and that Mr. Wilrotte was entitled to $60 damages.

BEES ARE TO MAKE A MAP OF MISSOURI, ALL IN HONEY State Inspector Plans Unique Exhibit for Coming Con- gress in Moberly. State Apiary Inspector M. E. Darby has started 75,000 bees at work making in honey a map of Missouri, wnicn will be exhibited at the congress to be held in’ Moberly, Mo., Sept. 7 to 9, under the auspices of the State Board of Immigra- tion. The map will be two feet by two feet, and when finished will contain about thirty pounds of honey. It will show the principal cities of the State, and the Missouri River. Inspector Darby ex- pects it will be finished in about a month from the day the-bees started working. When completed, Inspector Darby will uncap enough honey cells to spell the word “Missouri” across the work, and the bees then will be given colored honey, with which they are expected to recap these cells, and thus spell the name of the State in colors. After the congress, the map, in a glass case, will be presented to Gov. Hadley. Inspector Darby. says the bees of Mis- gsouri produce in a year about 8,000,000 pounds of honey, worth about $1,000,000. Fully 90 per cent of this is consumed at home, he says. FAMINE BREAD 93 YEARS OLD MUNCIE, Ind., Aug. 13.—Among the treasured family possessions of the fam- fly of Joseph Hummel, and carefully preserved beneath a glass case, are two small loaves of bread, each weighing an ounce and a half, that were baked 93 years ago and are relics of the famine that swept Germany in 1815 and 1817. Wheat then sold for $84 a bushel. The loaves are. heirlooms in the Hum- mel family and came into Mr. Hursme]’s hands when he was visiting his old heme in Wurtemberg 20 years ago. Floods and the war that was then raging virtually destroyed the wheal crop throughout Purope, and the few who were able to raise the cereal charged exorbitant prices for it. FREE TO.

DANGER IS StEN BY PROHIBITIONISTS IN COURT RULING Decision Knocking Out Re- publican Redistricting Amendment Is Feared.

DRYS BECOME ACTIVE

Are Trying to Obtain Pledges From Members of the Legislature.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Aug. 13.— The leaders of the dry movement In Missouri are alarmed over the de- cision of the Missourl Supreme Court knocking out the Republican sena- torial redistricting amendment and sustaining Secretary of State Roach in his refusal to file the petitions for the submission of such an amend- ment, They are agreed that the decisior of the Supreme Court just stops short of annulling the initiative and refer- endum amendment under which they will submit prohibition to a vote of the people this fall. E. F. Jones, state secretary of the Missouri Anti- Saloon League, who is traveling about the State ascertaining the attitude of the legislative candidates on the liquor question, said today that in his opinion there is a strong possibility of the .prohibition amendment being attacked, even if adopted. Prodhibition in Danger. He. déclared that under the decision of the Supreme Court in the senato- rial redistricting litigation it would be knocked out in all probability, and upon the same grounds, John Kennish and his associates who have just filed a motion for a rehearing in the Haliburton man- damus proceedings to compel the Secretary of State to file the peti- tions, say that if the Court’s de- cision is correct, and is permitted to stand the prohibition amend- ment. which falls into the same cate gory, must inevitably be declared void. They ratsed the point that the pro- hibition amendment is legislative in its character and not constitutiona! It was upon this point that Judge Fox knocked out the Republican amendment to redistrict the Stat: senatorially. He declared that the amendment proposed was legislative in its character and not a constitu- tional amendment, as it purported to be. For this reason he declared the amendment null and void and sus- tained Roach in refusing the peti- tions. In Declared Legislative. ‘The Republican attorneys claim if this is correct that the prohibition amendment cannot weather the storm. They point out numerous decisions by the Missouri Supreme Court wherein it was held that the Legislature has full power to prohibit or restrict the sale of liquor in Missouri. ing so, they contend that the proposed prohibition measure is not an amend- ment, but is legislative in its char- acter and therefore null and _ void when Judge Fox's reasoning is ap- plied to it. | “Take for instance,” they said, “the proposed amendment to the Constitu- tion now on file with Roach and to be voted upon at the coming election, prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors. Is that proposed measure legislative or constitutional in char- acter? As far back as the State vs. Austin, 10 Mo. 6591, this court said: - ‘But we-are not aware that there is any provision in our constitution which would prevent the Legislature from prohibiting dram selling entire- ly, nor, has the Legislature been pre- vénted from placing such restrictions upon the business as they think fit. They have exercised the power not of prohibiting but of restricting it.’” Would Be Found Void. After citing other utterances of the Missouri Supreme Court with respect to the rights of the Legislature in dealing with the liquor question, the motion says: ‘Under the foregoing decisions of this court (and no decisions can be found to the contrary) the prohibition of the sale of intoxicating liquors is a subject entirely within the power of the Legislature, and therefore is leg- islative and not constitutional in its character, and if the decision in this case is to stand, the prohibition amendment inevitably must be de- clared void and of no effect, no mat- ter how great may be its majority at the polls.” Pledges F'rom Lawmakers, Prohibitionists are now sizing. up the candidates for the Legislature as laws must be enacted to put the pro- hibition amendment Into operation if it is adopted. They will seek to line up the dry crowd for the dry candi- dates of either party. Where it is possible they are trying to get pledges in writing from the legisla- tive candidates to support statutory prohibition if the amendment is beat- en at the polls in November. They claim to have gained ground in the State Senate and that they will be able to muster a greater number of voters in that body this winter. The Prohibition amendment will be inoperative unless laws are enacted providing for penalties for its viola- tion and for putting the amendment into effect. Col. Bill Phelps of Carthage is said to be representing the wets in that aection of the State.

STATE OWNERSHIP OF RAILROADS 1S URGED IN IRELAND Commissicn, After Careful Study, Makes Recom- mendations. TAXES FOR DEFICITS Board of Control of 20 Members Is Sug- gested. eR

“The final report of the Government Commission appointed to investigate the purchase ang control of the rail- roads in Ireland by the State has just been made public, and is a document of the highest public interest,” Attor- ney John P. Leahy, who wrote a4 series of articles on the subject for the Post-Dispatch while abroad, said yesterday. “Tt is well understood that the pres- ent liberal Government favors the nationalization of the railroads in Great Britain and Ireland and owing to the fact that Ireland has but two trunk lines with a few unimportant branches, while the sister isies have a complete net work of railroads, it was decided that the experiment of State purchase and control of the British railroads should be tried first in Ireland, where complications would not be so likely to arise. Notable Commission. “The commission comprised some of the most notabie railroad and financial experts. The chairman was Sir Charles Scotter, president of the London and Southwestern Rallway Company, one of the largest ship- owners in England, Sir Herbert Jekyl, assistant secretary of the Board of Trade; Lieutenant Colonel Hutchin- son Poe, railroad engineer; Thomas Sexton, editor of the Dublin Free- man, and J. A. Aspinall, general man- ager of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Rallway Company. “The question submitted by the Government to the commission was: “By what methods can economic, efficient and harmonious working of the railroads be best obtained? “The answer given by the commis- sion is that such working cannot be obtained in any sense commensurate with the object set before us, name- ly, the full utilization of the rail- roads for the development of Irish resources except by making them public property, consolidating them into a single system, and working that system under. representative control for the benefit of the coup try.” Iesue State Guarantee Stock. “After setting forth at considerable length their reasons for arriving at the conclusion to recommend State purchase and control of the railroads, the com- mission makes further recommendations as to the proper means for putting this scheme into effect. The purchase is to be effected by the issue of a State guarantee stock, the interest of which would be a first charge on the net rev- enue of the unified system. ‘Possible deficits in the net revenue would be charged to an annual grant made by the Government, and if the same proved insufficient to meet the charge for any one year, it will be de- frayed out of the proceeds of a general tax to be levied for this purpose by the railroad authorities. Twenty Directors to Control. ‘The commission recommends that the unified railways be controlled and ad- ministered by an Irish railway board composed of 2 directors, 12 elected to represent the taxpayers of Ireland, two nominated by the British treasury, and two nominated by the Lord Lieufenant. The method suggested in electing the popular representatives is as follows: Two delegates to be elected by each county council, and one by each mu- nicipal corporation, the delegates in each of the four provinces so elected to con- stitute a provincial delegation which shall meet and elect three directors to represent the taxpayers of that province on the Board of Railroad Directors: Made Careful Study. “That the commission has made a close and careful investigation of the weighty matters submitted to it is evi- denced by the fact that it has been sitting for near a year, and has taken four more to compile the report. The recommendation for State purchase and control appears to be based upon the working of the railroads under State ownership in Australia. In this con- nection the report states: “‘Conclusive evidence was submitted to us of the remarkable success in de- veloping material resources which has attended the acquisition of the railroads by the several states of the Australian commonwealth.’ ‘There are no constitutional limits tn England which would prevent the com- pulsory acquisition by the State of the railroads, and the British Legislative Assembly could pass a law for that pur- pose if it saw fit to do so, but judging by the fact that the members of the commission are amongst the largest rai)- rodd owners in Great Britain, it seems Yi probable that the scheme will be put

to th ort fortune ‘|into effect without friction.”

With industrial growth and commercial wealth these matters are all inevitably associated. Church extension and religious effort are as truly by-products of the factories and trades as boots, motors and brooms are the direct products. It is pertinent, therefore, that the people, in con- sidering the material progress on view, consider also the progress in other forms. “Made-in-St. Louis” week will come into the realization cf its fullest promise when it is also a period of reflec- tion—when-it is a time when the inventory of civic wealth is taken and reduced to understand- able terms.

Mark Twain is gone; Uncle Remus is gone, and now in his turn James Whitcomb Riley, gtricken with paralysis, lies at the exit door of life, await- ing the summons. These three men,’ in widely different ways, have given a clear literary form to the common thoughts and the common lan- guage of the American people of their genera- tion. It is not a high literature, but it is as wide as human sympathy and as deep as are the com- mon feelings of men. It will live. There are people to whom the verse of Riley is not poetry at all; but they are few. The sim- plicity of his sentiment appeals to the multitude that knows not Browning. The easy ripple and tinkle of the rhythm of his lines sounds like music to ears that cannot follow the marvelous melody.of Swinburne. The circle of his readers | is doubtless wider than that of any other Amer- ican poet except Longfellow; wider than that of any other living poet, except Kipling. His songs have been of the sweet, homely things of the life of the prairie States. The swim- ming pool, the clover fields, the red schoolhouse and the old sweetheart are at once the sources of his inspiration and the means by which he charmed his generation. He who would under- stand the innermost core of American life of our time must give heed to Riley’s verse. There it lives and breathes; and if it never burns with passion nor flames with ecstasy, it never lacks the wholesome warmth of the sunshine nor the tender brightness of flowers. = = i i Savings banks in New York State have depos- its of $1,676,000,000, nearly three times what they were 20 years ago. This is a gratifying showing when it is known that Great Britain, Ireland and Russia combined will only equal the Empire State’s nest egg. But the money, while trebled in numerical strength, has not more than doubled, if it has done that, in purchasing power. If turned into cooking utensils, breakfast bacon or shoes there is little, if any, more in the savings banks that there was two decades ago. a ee. Le — a ae

the corrupting influence of foreign travel em- ployed not in studying the art or the culture oi where European profligacy disports itself. Next comes the influence of the increasing luxury of American life; a luxury that tempts women as well as men to gamble through a sheer weari- ness born of wealth and leisure. Last, but not least, is the development in the national char- acter of a temperamental desire for gambling, not only as an excitement, but as a means of getting money quickly and without toil. Between Wall street and the gambling room there is little difference, except in the names of the games that are played. When men talk con- tinually of their winnings, when there is an in- cessant boasting of money made and of money spent; women naturally come at last to have a desire to try the game themselves; and with a woman the step from desire to deed is very short. There will be many homilies written on the disclosures of this raid, but none of them will do justice to the women caught at the games, that does not throw the responsibility for tueir folly upon the greater folly of fathers, brothers and husbands who have made gambling in one form or another the most noted occupation of the metropolis of the republic. i, Ae Ae.

While we are pressing forward the work on the Panama Canal, the British are equally ener- getic in hastening the completion of the great railway that is to traverse the length of Africa from the Cape to Cairo. It is probable the two enterprises will be completed about the same time, so that while San Francisco or New Or- leans or both are celebrating the opening of the canal, Capetown may be rejoicing in a through overland route to Egypt. The vaiue of these two great movements can hardly be overestimated “when their usefulness to the future as well as to the present genera- tion is taken into consideration. There is also a good deal of significance in the fact that voth of them have been undertaken and will be com- pleted and controlled by the two branches of the Anglo-Saxon race. While the other great nations of the world are expending their enefgies and their revenues mainly in armaments and prep- arations for war, the United States and Great Britain are doing mighty things that make for peace and for the common benefit of all the world. The fleets will perish. The life of the cost- liest warship is hardly more than that of a canoe; but the canal and the railway will last as long as civilization itself. Moreover, the dom- inance of the world in the end must pass to the nations and the peoples that stand for industrial welfare as against military waste.

OUR GUM-CHEWING INDUSTRY. From the New York World. Twenty-nine students and three professors of the University of Commerce, in Cologne, heartily welcome to our city, find the gum-chewing habit looming large among the wonders of America. We cannot be surprised at this, having been impressed ourselves by the omnipresent nickel- ir-the-slot gum machine, the inexhaustible sticks of chewing gum in jars and piles on candy stere and drug store counters, the jaws almost unani- rmously in activity in subway jams, trolley car crushes and crowds at large. Baseball players chew gum to keep off thirst, children and matinee girls chew it because it tastes sweet, many persons chew in the belief that they are aiding their digestion, but most people chew because they have got the habit. Probably a final analysis would reveal an inti- mate connection between nerves and habitual gum chewing. There have been attempts to establish gum in Europe. The results are as yet inconsiderable. However, the demand right here in the United States calls for the manufacture of 3,000,000,000 pieces of gum per year and gives prosperity to a very healthy 11-year-old trust. If one doctor says gum chewing is harmldss, another declares that it overworks the salivary glands. But to the stranger within our gates the wonder of the busy jaw remains.

The aeroplane described is built entirely of aluminum, It has four planes, as was the case with Langley’s ill-fated aerodrome which flew over the Potomac, but was wrecked on account of a flaw in the launching apparatus. The Mil- waukee machine, however, has a decided noy- elty in construction, the body of it being a cyl- inder placed between the wings, in the same po- sition as the body of a dragon fly to the wings of that insect. Inside this épen cylinder is the propeller, which is the most promising thing about the apparatus. This propeller, weighing 52 pounds, is of aluminum and is capable of delivering a thrust of 750 pounds when revolving at 1000 rey- olutions a minute with a 64-horsepower engine. A 70-horsepower engine will be used for actual flight, and Will weigh 250 pounds. Theoretically, this engine, cylinder and propel- with a thrust of 750 pounds, shé go far towards solving the problem of the flying ma- chine which can lift itself up vertically without needing to be started at a tangent with the earth’s surface.

The story of this journey, continued from day to day, as the train rumbles along with the prize Paris dog in a Pullman palace car, has become quite a feature of the news. Perhaps it will get thrilling when the engine drags its train across Nevada and the purple petted pup has to undergo the heat of the desert. A single official physician was sufficient to wait on him at Omaha, but an entire medical faculty may be commanded to at- tend him at Carson. There are critics, like Ferrero, who say we are showing in our high american life some of the symptoms that marked the degeneracy of ancient Rome. It is gratifying to have such instances as this of man’s devotion to a-dog, to refute such critics. When did Romans ever show such tender care of dogs? There was, indeed, a Roman Em- peror who conferred upon his horse the title, the office, the honors and the staff of a Consul, but that Emperor was crazy. It is only in America, in our time, that regard for animals has been carried to such extent that men of wealth, even some who grudge to pay taxes, and who hesitate to subscribe to funds for the relief of sick chil- dren, have yet enough of kindness in their hearts to love dogs with a lavish prodigality of money

ANOTHER GOLD BUBBLE ‘‘BUSTED.”’ From the Portland Oregonian. The Iditarod mining bubble is pretty effectu- ally punctured by Gen.

Poverty, destitution and despair are facing thousands of unfortunate miners who have been lured to the new gold fields by the highly-colored advertising of the transportation companies. So serious is the situation that Gen. Maus declares that Government aid will probably have to be invoked to bring many of the penniless men out before the winter season is over.

NOBODY WANTS SULTAN’S GIRLS OF THE HAREM Four Hundred Beauties Face Cruel World With No Money, Friends or Chances of Employment—Par- liament Is Deliberating.

RULER’S HOUSEHOLD ASKS TOTAL OF $920,000 IN SALARY

Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. CONSTANTINOPLE, July 30.—When the deposed Sultan Abdul Hamid went into forced retirement Salonica with 12 wives and a retinue of Ser- Vants, only a very small part of his establish- ment went with him. The Government vaguely recognized the residue as a liability for which provision must be made. That obligation hvs now been startlinghy recalled by a claim just sent to Perliament for $920,000 for “wages due” to 746 persons. This demand has roused the legislators to the recessity of action. No particular inquiry had +: been made as to the extent of the ex- on’'s entourage. There had been an exodus omen, supposedly breaking up the harem, oud the household debt was assumed to comprise abcut 200 persons, none of them expensive. The number who have come forward for pay is as astounding as the amount of money they call for. t appears that 746 consist of some 400 young women, the rest being slaves and servants. The list seems to be authentic. Pension for Women. Confronted with the necessity of doing some- thing, Parliament has taken the matter up. It has decided to separate the women from the others and pension them at from $40 to $250 a year, according to a scheme of precedence to be worked out. Pensions will be paid for 10 years and then cease. The others must begin to look out for themselves at once. No actfon has been taken on the $920,000 claim. The debates developed a great variety of views. Mahy members expressed the opinion that these 700 and odd people should forthwith be turned out to earn their own living. The answer was that self-respecting employers would not give the girls ar.ything to do. at Sorry for Girls. One member made an impassioned plea for the women, most of whom are under 20. “They are fricndless and alone in the world, and for the scke of humanity we ought to protect them.” This appeal’ to the chivalry of the legislators had perceptible effect, other speakers following the first pleader in sympathetic strain. It was suggested by some that the girls ought to be married. Others thought that idea good, but no one would undertake to provide hus- bands. | One member made a strong speech in favor of shipping the 400 back to Albania and Arabia, where Abdul Hamid got them, his. preferences having always been for the beauties of these lands. Families Object to Them. This scheme sounded plausible and. might have prevailed: had not report of it that was sent out instantly provoked vigorous protests from the authorities of these countries with stern notice that the women would not be permitted to re- turn. When the women left their native places they did so to the great financial gain of their families, and even they were unwilling to have them back. The case is more serious than it may. appear off-hand. These inmates of the Yildiz Kiosk es- _ tranged themselves from all other contact when they became the property of the Sultan. He could protect them while in power, but when he fell they were left not only defenseless but their record bars:them from outside association. Abdul Hamid could,do nothing for them now if he would, and no doubt he feels that he has trcubles enough of his own witheut assuming ad- ditional ones on their account.

There are so many that they will appear before the aged head of the house in groups. Thé Emperor is not worried by the prepara- tions for his birthday, but seeing that they are made with a real wish to please and honor him, he watches them with a smile on his face, though sométimes he says: “Thete should not be too much of it.” What amuses him most is to notice how the littie Highnesses are learning poetry and prose speeches by heart and trying to keep the secret from him, which they are anxious to reveal.

GEORGE V DISTILS HIS OWN WHISKY ‘Lochnagar Scotch’ Is Often Drunk by Duke of Connaught; Victoria Used It.

Special Correspondence From the London Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Aug. 4.—King George is the master of many industries, but it is not generally known that he is the owner of a distillery where he dis- tils some of the finest whisky that ever drew praise from a connoisseur. This curious posses- sion of the Crown is situated on the Balmoral es- tote, near Abergeldie Castle, and is known as Lochnagar. The whisky manufactured ia, as may be imagined, of the highest possible quality, and it finds it way to all the royal tables via the cellars of Buckingham Palace, where it ar- rives in bulk and where it is matured in large maturing vats, so that it does not really make its “professional” debut mati it is from 15 to 20 years old, ? The distillery was at first an ordinary com- mercial undertaking, doing a fair amount of trade, and producing a whisky of sound repute; but, when the property passed into the posses- sion of the crown, in the reign of Queen Victoria, the products of the distillery were reserved ex- clusively for the use of the royal family #nd their respective households. Although the King manufactures his own whisky, he actually drinks very little of it, for the acute indigestion from which he occasionally suffers has placed it under a taboo. But the “Lochnagar Scotch” is often drunk by the Duke of Connaught, and it was practically the only stimulant taken by Queen Victoria for many years before her death, PARIS TO SPEND $40,000,000 TO PREVENT OVERFLOW Special Cable tre the Post-Dispatch and New York Werld. Copyright, 1910, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) PARIS, Aug. 13.—"What is Paris doing to pre- vent another flood?” Almost every tourist asks that question and the heavy rains recently make it pertinent. wAlfred Picard, in charge of the investigation irt&’ the disastrous flood of last winter, has just submitted his report. Contrary to general ex- pectations, he reports against the scheme of build- ing a canal to divert the overflow of the Seine and carry the water around outside the city. The cost of such @ canal would be immense, M. Picard says. He suggests that the consequences of flood can be much more cheaply averted by so recon- structing drains ag to enable them to carry off the overflow; rebuilding four bridges ‘to prevent them obstructing-the flow of the river; blocking up all air holes opening into the under-street portions of the quays, deepening the bed of the Soine below Paris, and digging « canal which will relieve the Seine of some of the waters of the Marne, the tributary mainly responsible for floods. Although this is by far a cheaper method of fighting the river's dangers, the estimated cost of these improvements is not less than $40,000,000, Work already has been begun. This includes

Begians Declare Actress and Play Are Worthy Successors of ‘‘Merry. Widow.”’

Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. RRUSSELS, Aug. 2.—Brussels is flocking to see “Mam’zelle Dactyle,” the French version of a German musical comedy by Raimann, now on the bill of the Scala and hearalded as a worthy suc- cessor of “The Merry Widow.” The action centers around a stenographer in the employ of a New York agency which supplies anything that money can buy, from a valet or a typist to a caunterfeit prince and his suite. A New York billionaire, in order to entertain his guests at a ball, engages the Parisian girl as private secretary and the. prince and his suite. The part of the stenographer is played with talent by Mile. de Brasy. After winning her first laurels at the Conserva- toire she had gradually climbed the ladder of fame and was already creeping into prominence in the “Great Mogul” at the Theater of the Gal- eries Saint-Hubert (Arcade) when she was in- duced to go to the Scala and create the leading part of Mam’‘zelle Dactyle. Mile. de Brasy has developed a very strong per- scnality on the stage. She is maliciously co- quettish and pretty into the bargain; so it is no wonder that her gayety has crossed the footlights and won the Brussels audiences. WEDDING DELAYED SIXTY YEARS BY GIRL’S PLEDGE Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. BUCHAREST, Aug. 1.—A remarkable story of filial devotion and lovers’ constancy is reported from Braila, where Maria Liega, aged 80, was married to her flance, Joseph Stolesco, aged 86, to whom she had been engaged for nearly 60 years. As a girl of 20 Maria had consented to marry‘ Stolesco, but her father having opposed the match she had agreed that she would never marry as long as he lived. The father died at the age of 113, and the devoted lovers were married a few days later. The ceremony was performed by the Bishop of Braila, who held up the newly married couple as an example to all young lovers. -young Parisian

A tieee-syemen PRINCE HEADS A LEAGUE OF MERCY Alexander of Teck a Plucky Fighter, Princess Is ‘‘Alice in Wonderland.”’

Special Correspondence From the London Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Aug. 4.—Prince Alexander of Teck, who has just been appointed by King George to the Grand Presidency of the League of Mercy, las all the geniality, good nature and pluck of the Teck family. He is a prince whose income compels him to live a life of economy, but, lke his father before him, he is never anything but cheery. The Prince’s instincts are military. He was treined at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, and, in 1888, joined the Seventeenth Lancers, pro- motion folowrmg very quickly. He is no merely ornamental soldier, but a dashing fighter, who won his way to his present rank by sheer hard werk in war and steadfast attention to duty in time of peace. In the Matabele campaign and the Boer war he showed himself “a first-class fighting man,” taking the rough with the smooth and the rest of the risks with the most reckless soldiers. Princess Alexander of Teck has also been hon- ored by her brother-in-law, the King, by being ap- pointed Lady President of the League. She is a daughter of the late Duke of Albany, and is sister td the reigning Duke of Saxe-Coburg. All sorts of stories of foreign aspirants to her hand were tcld before her engagement to Prince Alexander, but her marriage gave general satisfaction in En- gland, where it had been hoped that she would remain to'‘grace the country to which she is so devotedly attached. Unlike most members of the royal family, music is not one of the Princess Alice’s hobbies, but she draws and paints with great skill, She has a sense of humor rare in womankind, and few people know how intenesly amusing she can be. It is said that in her early youth, one of the great trials of her mother and g0vernesses was her hearty laugh, which the severest look always failed to quell. In those days she was known as “Alice in Wonderland” because of her pas- sicnate devotion to Lewis Carroll’s works. She is superlatively charitable in spite of her linrited income, and devotes a great deal of time to per- sonal philanthropy.

CAMERA AIDS KAISER IN QUIETING RUMORS Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. BERLIN, Aug. 4.—Little Prince William, eldest son of the Crown Prince, had his fourth birthday last month. Some day he will be Emperor of Germany and King of Prussia besides a lot of other things, but maybe his good taste in being born on the Fourth of July will appeal to Ameri- cans as & fitter cause for congratulation. Tht sturdy youngster is the pride and hope of the Emperor, who continues to have daily re- ports made to him of all his bright remarks. A snapshot picture of the boy Prince was taken while he was on guard duty with a toy gun given him by the Emperor. Already the child's mind runs to military things, which, of course, pleases his grandfather immensely. Sc many guns and other implements of war were sent the child on his birthday that his romp- ing room resembled an arsenal and the play- grounds are ever a’ battlefield, with. mighty armies. answering to his baby-voiced commands. Unhappily he must depend upon imaginary. sol- diers, except.when he imperiously drafts his at- tendents, or prods them with his toy bayonet when they heed not his command to “half,” for he has no chums to play with like the more fortunate ekildten of less exalted rank. His rext younger brother, Prince Louls Ferdinand, 3 years old, is not at alt disposed to bother him- self with anything. The youngest brother, Prince Hubertas, will be 2 years old in September. Little Prince William's p soldier must secon give way to more serious ings, and in- stead of commanding he must ey. Training to be an Emperor its in itself a task from early youth, but in addition the Hohenzollerns have a way of casting an anchor to windward and mak- ing their princes self-supporting in case they lose their “jobs,” hence the future Emperor must learn a tradé, | -Emperer’s Schoolgirl Guests. The gallantry of Emperor William is proverbial, and his ability to do neat and pleasing things amcunts almcst to genius. When he was crulsing recently his yacht anchored at Odde, in Norway, where the pupils of a school for scientific beauty culture were invited to have tea on board the imperial yacht Hohenzollern. As the women of Germany dote on chocolate with whipped cream and cream tarts, the Emperor ordered the prep- aration of these delicacies for his guests. The beauty students—or beautiful students; as, of course, they were—arrived on time and had a great frolic. Afterward the girls sent the Em- peror a rhymed telegram of thanks for his hospi- tality and received this imperial “poem,” signed “William MII. and fellow passengers,” which, though far better gallantry than verse, delighted the students immensely: Fair maids who chocolate drank with me, I thank you for your courtesy, And hope as sweet may be your fare As whipped cream over chocolate. Camera to Quiet Rumors. In some of ‘his personal affairs, Emperor Wil- liam has recently substituted the camera for the semi-official news article with success, as his loyal but critical subjects accepted well staged photographs more readily than “inspired” news. Ever since he upset things at the Kiel regatta by “dropping in” on Mrs. Goelet of New York, on board her splendid yacht Nahma in time for a late breakfast, the Emperor has seen the advantage of pictures taken on the spot. When Mrs, Goelet and guests from her yacht were later entertained on the Imperial yacht the Emperor had a fine large photograph taken and caused it to be printed in nearly every illustrated paper in Ger- many. In it the Emperor stands on the deck of the yacht, at the door to the salon with Mrs, Goelet, Marquis Inique, Fraulelin von Toch-. irschky, Marqufse Inique and Mme. Schneider grcuped about him. ; While away on his cruise the story spread that he was ill and his true condition was being kept from the public. Just as soon as he heard the stories the official photographer was summoned ané a big picture was made showing the Em- peror climbing the gangway of the yacht unaided, and without even a walking stick. It, too, found its way into all the illustrated papers and con- vinced the public that he was all right again. At another time he had himself photographed on board his sailing yacht and clad in a eu costume. FLORIST GETS AHEAD OF FRENCH PRESIDENT'’S WIFE Special Correspondence From the Paris Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. PARIS, Aug. 3.—Mme. Fallieres is an excellent housekeeper, and believes tn doing her own or- dering wherever possible. She went out the other morning to order some flowers for an official dinner at the Elysee, and was horrified at the price—$200. “I shall go somewhere else,” said Mme. Fallieres. Bie did, and was asked $240. Then, furiously angry, she drove to the flower market, and to her dismay found that she war. asked $280 there. It was not until she turned to drive home that she noticed the first florist to whom she had beon. He jumped upon a bicycle, got ahead of her carriage, and asked hig colleagues not to unéerbid him.

OT of the number of those who ‘¢ean’t come back’’ are the fugacious folk of St. Louis society who are now scattered over North and East, from ‘‘ Weque’’ to Biddeford Pool. They can ‘‘come back,’’ and with the calendar now at the Ides of August, it takes no prophet to divine that the time of their return is near, y For one thing, they have about ceased going, and when the late ones have all gone, it is time for the early ones table of summer resort literature in classified informative look of a few to begin returning. No more has the the railroad ticket offices its classy, fortnights ago. It looks like a dis- mantled remnant counter, with crumpled circulars of Lake Minnetonka seattered among Florida hotel folders, brought through from last winter. Tasty frocks and going-away hats are less common a sight in east-bound parlor cars than they were two weeks ago. For those who have gone abroad, the time draws near when the latter part of the ‘‘going in June, returning in September’’ program will be car- ried out. “Those who have summered in the mered in, and who have in some cases places that exist chiefly to be sum- kept half as cool as they could have been at home, will get back to St. Louis just in time to be reminded that September sometimes gets very warm such as St, Louis has enjoyed. here, especially after a cool summer, Meanwhile, there remain two weeks before the return scramble for state- rooms and lowers. And every mail from the seashore and the lakes and Europe brings its tale of automobiling, golf and bridge, with now and then a touch of romance or adventure. At Wequetonsing.

Meredith Nicholson’s ‘‘Rosa-+ lind at Red Gate’ Begins American’s Season. ATF: OTHER Imperial, Columbia, Haviin’s, Standard and Gayety An- nounce Good Bills. “Rosalind in Meredith Nicholson’s novel, at Red Gate,’ which will be seen dramatized form as the season's opening attraction at the American Theater, be- ginning a week: engagement with to- day's matinee, is described as “a near neighbor to ‘The House of a Thousand Candles,’ ’’ a play that proved especially popular with the American’s audiences , last season. In this story Mr. Nicholson fs consid- ered to have written a buoyant romance even more fascinating, witty and charm- ing than its famous predecessor. Red Gate is near Glendarm-.House, on Lake Annandale, the ground made famous in “The House of a Thousand Candles.’’ The story is an original one, however, not a sequel, and Larry Donovan, the hero of the new play, is the only char- acter that reappears. The brave and humorous Irishman plays his own game cheerily; the story’s two heroines are delightful girls, and a certain mystery in their lives make them well worth while. The play's big climax crowns the absorbing cumulative Interest of many romantic incidents. It is a play of vivid action, its plot being based on the en- deavors of a gentle old woman to pre- vent her two brothers, one of whom ' Ig a scapegrace; from gaining possession of a legacy of $1,000,000 left in her charge by her father. The two men have daugh- ters as much alike as twin peas, and this likeness forms the foundation of the play’s mystery. Miss Cuba NibjJo will be seen in the dual roles of Rosalind .and Helen Hol- brook. Ske will be-supported vy an excellent company that includes Gus Arthurs,-Herbert Ashton, Lester How- ard, Neil MeLieod, Harry Knapp and Helen Gillingwater. The thoroughly renovated, redeco- rated and fan-cooled Imperial Theater ‘opens its doors for the -new seaspn this afternoon, with Barton and Wis- well’s Down fn Dixie Minstrels as the first week's attraction. This troupe of _ sterling artists numbers about 50 of the most capa- ble representatives of the’colored race now'on the. stage. Beaded by John Rucker, the hama Blossom,” one of the greatest negro. Comedians before the public, Whose fun-making propensities have fll away in’ the present offering. A spodial feature is the famous Gold feet Concert Band, noted the country ver; and, as extra.features, there will be vaudeville specialties by Marsh rady, Clark and Taylor, John Pump- lin and Campbell and Warfield, Mat- inees on Shae Thursday and Sat- urday, | Next beok. Down." . eee as the Sun Went Havlip's Theater begins the second week of its season with today’s mat- inee, when its clever stock company will be.geen in another Hal Reid play, “The Pride of Newspaper Row,” now presented for the. first time in St. Louis, *} The play's story is woven about the life of Annabelle Blake, the daughter of a. banker, who clandestinely mar- ries John Livingston, a young college student, and is deserted by him be- cause he fears parental wrath. Liv- ings'om disappears, declaring the marriage to have been a mock one, ® child is born to Annabelle and giv- en to @ nurse to rear, all trace of the child is lost, following the death of the nurse, and Annabelle, forgiv- en by her father, prosecutes a search for her son. It is now that Danny Casey, a bright newsboy, “the pride of Newspaper Row,” emerges on the Scene as the play’s hero, being en- waged by Mr. Blake as an office-boy, ‘and contriving to foll a villain who ‘ts seeking’ Blake's financial down- fall. It is through him, also, that Annabelle’s lost child, and also her husband, are discovered and restored ‘to her, and there are many thrilling situations, one of which shows Danny Casey, at the risk of his life, cross- ing telegraph wires high inthe air to outwit the villain who has plotted reports into Banker Blake's office. Jessaline Rodgers is admirably cast as Annabel Blake. Anna Laynge wilh Play Rene Montez, an adventuress. Hazel Sherwood is Maggié Cassidy, and Alice Gilmore has an excellent part as the Widow Casey. Frank T. Chariton, who made such a fav orable impression last week, will be “Happy Jack,” the reformed+tramp husband. atry Rowley is expected to: give a good account of himself as Danny Casey, introducing a lively specialty And Raymond Capp will play Emmett Wilkins, the villain.

Famous will heartily & earnestly co-operate with the retailers of the city in “boosting” St. Louis-made goods this week. Furthermore, Famous does not look upon this event solely in the light of displaying ‘‘ public spirit,” but is fully cognizant of the excellence of St. Louis-made goods, which, in many instances, when compared, excel those produced elsewhere. The sight. of St. Louis-made goods is not unfamiliar to our stocks. We spend hundreds of thousands of dollars annually for home products, & we are pleased to record that there are thousands of people who come to this store to buy nothing but St. Louis-made goods whenever possible. For this sale we have been exceedingly fortunate in assembling exceptionally attractive values.

Wealthy members of the Second Bap- ,|tist Church; who helped W. T. Winte- }mute through college om the understand- | ‘ing that he was to enter the ministry, have been surprised in the last day of — two to learn that he ‘was under arrest in New York charged with fraudulent use of the mails in a mammoth mining- | stock swindle.. The Countess of Tanker- ville and her friend, Miss Henrietta Eliot of Tunbridge Wells, England, the principal complainants, declare that he obtained $50,000 from them. . The total amount of his dealings {s placed at $1,300,000, Wintemute, some 13 years ago, preached several sermons in various St. Louis Baptist churches, before abandon~ ~ ing the pulpit, for ,which his church friends had sought to fit him, for the stage. He war a pupil of tite late Law- rence Hanley in acting, and went on the read with James O'Neill, but latem-gav up his stage ares tere and went business. Had piaberéte “Offices.

I could hear them ‘talking abolltt my wife, but I prétended not to notice, be- cause-I didn’t want any trouble. “T had to go down to the yard for some water.

“ay Bv Associated Press. NEW- YORK, Aug. 15.—The' same op- timism that has characterizetl the state- ment? regarding the condition of Mayor 7aynor since he was shot on Tuesday by James J. Gallagher, freyailed in the latest bwiletins issued at St. Mary’s Hospital, Hobokin, N. J., tonight. Another consultation of the physicians in aitendance, which lasted half an hour, was followed by’ a bulletin issued at 2:30 p. m., which said: Mayor Gaynor’s condition this evening continues to be satisfact- ory. He passed a restful day with- out pain or discomfort and no un- toward symptont have developed. Dr, Arlitz supplemented this officia) announcement in reply to a question as to the patient’s condition by say- ing: “He is doing fine.” All formal statements bore out the hopeful statements of the physicians. Nevertheless there still remains an undercurrent of feeling that the May- or is in greater danger than is indi- cated in the official bulletins from the sickroom. Secretary Is Sanguine. Robert Adamson, the Mayor's sec- retary, early in the evening an- nounced, upon the authority of Dr. Stewart that his chief was much bet- ter and added that the swelling of the, neck near the wound had de- creased noticably. It was also stated by Adamson that the cough which had caused some un- easiness to the doctors, for fear that it might induce hemorrhages, was better tonight. A mysterious conference held at po- lice headquarters tonight, attended by Secretary Adamson, Commissioner Thompson of the Department of Water Supply, Police -Inspector’ Russell and Lieut.

Besides the case of Annie Roman, who worked three days in a skirt factory for a dime a-day, Truant Officer Max Paswel reports many other instances of wages similarly pathetic, paid to child workers in St. Louis shops and -factories, particularly in the Ghetto. In an interview with a Post-Dispatch reporter last night he cited in- stances of two children, a boy and a girl, who worked for $1 a week, and of a girl, 12 years old, whe got $1.25 a week. He declared that these wages are typical of those paid beginners 14 years of age in many tobacco factories,

LOOKING TO FUTURE Little Hope of Saving House, but Politicians Are Pre- paring for 1912. From a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 13.—Senator Aldrich said he would not talk about rubber, but he did. Secretary Ballin- ger of the Interior Department said he wouldn't resign, but he wi!!. The resig- nation will come about the time several times set in these dispatches to the Post-Dispatch—Sept. 15. Joseph G. Cannon said on Thursday in Chicago that he will be a candidate for Speaker of the next Congress, but’ he won't; that is, not if the new man- agers of Taft destinies can prevent it. The new managers are composed of oli guard members. Insurgents have no part in the doing of the new political tasks except to have inspired them by force of arms. Senator Murray Crane of the regulars was called upon first to put Ballinger off the track. While he has not made his formal report, it is known that Bal- linger is waiting only for the white- washing report of the congressional committee on Sept. 5 to return to his Seattle law practice. Then Senator Crane was asked to urge Senator Aldrich to reply to Senator Bristow. Crane and the Rhode Island Senator had beén political chums for years. However, Aldrich was quitting and Crane was not, and the insurgent \ warning from Iowa and Kansas started panic as far east as Beverly. Crane t Aldrich’s pledge that he will not be a candidate to succeed himself, he got a statement on rubber and a promise that Aldrich will reply about the cotton schedule in a tariff speech. Reaction on Aldrich. Senator Crane does not care and the administraion doesn’t care whether Benator Aldrich’s statements are good,. bad or indifferent. It is admitted here that it was the insistence of the New York World, that Aldrich’s silence was a confession of guilt, that caused the- administration to use pressure for a statement. The statement was de- manded. If it is not convincing, the idea among Mr. Taft's advisers is that the reaction will be on Aldrich only. With his promise to Crane and Taft that he will not again be a candidate for Senator,-he has been wiped off the political slate here and the administra- tion hopes the rest of the country will be as easily satisfied. Next on the list is Joseph G. Cannon, It has been decided that he must make a plain, unequivocal statement that he will not again be a candidate for Speaker. And in this instance, as in that of Aldrich, the man selected to break the news to Uncle Joe fs a bose om friend and political crony. He is William B. McKinley, chairman of the \ = k - of the Treasury. a 4 # Republican Ceagressional Committee, Handwriting on the Wall. Mr. McKinley represents the district in Congress adjoining that of Cannon in Tilinols. He has always been a most loyal and obedient pupil of the Speaker. But McKinley visited Beverly a few days ago and was shown the hand- writing on the wall. He will be here next week to gird up his loins, stock himself with reasons and “go up against’’ the Speaker. Every one realizes that Mr. Me- Kinley is going to have a terrible time. But if Mr. McKinley wishes to remain in national politics he must a0 this chore. » -The President is not responsible for this sudden spurt in house cleaning. He is, of course, giving passive ap- proval to it. But the man who is trying with nervous haste to set the Taft ship on an even keel, is a young man from’ the West, Charlies Dyer Norton, secretary to the President. This tall, slender, blue-eyed, assured young man of 40 comes from Chicago. He lisps, but he lisps crisply and he thinks while he speaks and acts. Whether he thinks before he speaks end acts is a question that the near future will solve. Secretary Is Ambitious. Mr. Norton is ambitious. He left a position paying nearly $50,000 a year te become a $5000 assistant secretary He did, this, hee because he wished to learn fins But Washington and the game of poll- ties attracted and he went over to the White House as secretary to the President. It is he who is sending of | Senators and Congressmen, Cabinet members and politicians here and there on missions to save the party.

It is not expected here that the chasm can be bridged in time to save the next House. It is only hoped that with all the Jonahs thrown .overboard, the Taft managers can re-elect Taft in 1912. CANNON LAUGHS WHEN TOLD OF PLAN TO REPUDIATE HIM DANVILLE, I1l., Aug. 13.—‘“I do not Know whether we will have a major- ity in the next House or not. I-hope wé will. My enemies have repeatedly }néquested me to make a statement. This is it. I know of nothing which will prevent me from being elected to the next House and again its Speaker, if my party wants me.” Thus did “Uncle Joe” Cannon de- clare himself tonight to a Post-Dis- patch reporter. The statement sent out from Bev- erly to the effect that Cannon, Sen- ator Aldrich and Secretary Ballinger would be repudiated by the Presi- dent seemed to amuse Mr. Cannon. When he saw the dispatch he laugh- ingly remarked that it made small difference to him who wrote it, but he presumed it was written by some man connected with a newspaper at war with the administration. “Acting in concert with the Repub- lican majority in Congress I con- tributed what I could toward the en- actment of legislation, and the Presi- dent approved it. The Democratic minority in Congress, reinforced by a Small group of men under the leader- ‘ship of La Follette, Cummins and Bristow, opposed the legislation, and Stands with some so-called Repub- jlican newspapers in an attitude of hostility towards Republican meas- urés and a Republican President. That fs the privilege of the Demo- cratic party and its allies and it is the, privilege of the so-called Repub- lican newspapers to pursue the poll- efeS which seem to them proper. “In my judgment these newspapers are not fair in their opposition to the Republican party; but I cannot help it, and am quite willing to abide by the vote of the majority of the people next November.” In making this statement Speaker Cannon said he had no malice against any one, but he made it plain that he did not propose to be read out of his party. The results in Kansas do not worry him, he said. He knows where the insurgent strongholds are and he ex- pects them to do their best, but says he feels that a Republican majority will be returned this fall. So far the Democrats in this dis- trict have done nothing, and while there is one announced Democratic candidate he will poll few votes. If Judge Kimbrough enters the race there will be a hard fight, but from the present outlook Cannon will have plain sailing into the next Congress. and once there he probably will put up ane of his. old-time fights for the apeakership in the event the House is Republican.

Children as Industrial Asset. “Not a few parents in the foreign quarters regard their .children, of whom they usually have many, as in- dustrial assets, to be realized upon at the earliest possible age. Therefore we have to cope with many fathers and mothers who attmept to falsify their children’s ages, and but for the strictest vigilance, we should have an epidemic of babies working in ‘fac- tories for a few pennies a day.” When Judge Hitchcock was inform- ed in the Juvenile Court that Annie Roman's wages were 10 cents a day, he expressed astonishment and horror. “How can you expect,” he éxclaim- ed, “for girls to work three days for 82 cents and remain good?” Factory Inspector an Aid, Paswel declares that, though the co-operation of Factory Inspector Williams with the Board of Educa- tion, child labor—that is, among chil- dren under 14—is almost stamped out in the city. He says that he visits every factory and shop in the Ghetto once or twice a week, and personally acquaints himself with the personnel of em- ployes. The managers, in many cases, are required to keep a list of their workers, with their ages. “Inspector Williams grants factory permits,” said the truant officer, ‘‘for the most part only upon age certifi- cates issued through the Board of Edu- cation. ‘‘We keep lists of all school children and their ages, with which we compare their applications for permits to work. With Jewish boys, we can keep a check by means of the records of the com- munions, which are performed when they are 13 years old. This is a very solemn religious ceremony, so that the records can be relied upon as accurate. Affidavits Corroborated, “There have been cases where we have compelled parents to send to Rus- sia and Austria for duplicate birth cer- tificates for their children. In all cases they must produce some official corrob- ofation of their affidavits concerning the ages of their children. Inspector Williams revoked more than 200 permits issued to children for factory work. by his predecessor.”’ The case of Annie Roman became public when Paswel took her and her brother and sister into the Juvenile Court in an attempt to have them com- mitted to a home until they could be cared for. Their mother was ailing and said she could not attend to them and work, too. The Jewish Charities inter- vened with an offer to send the family to New York, and the ‘cases were con- tinued generally. : Factory inspector Williams told a Post-Dispatch reporter that no prosecu- tion in the case would be instituted un- der the child labor law because Annie Roman has gone to New York, there be- ing no funds available to detain her as a witness. Samuel Frelich said he did not ask the girl her age because she looked to be 16 years old.

WHITE. NEIGHBORS FORGE A BOYCOTT UN NEGRO FAMILY Ice Men, Coal Dealers and Other Merchants Told to Stop Selling to Them. White neighbors of Louis A. Brown, a‘ Pullman porter, who purchased a $7000 home in Forest Park Heights with his savings from tips, put into effect a boycott yesterday which they expect will result in Brown and his family moving from the neighbor- hood. Delivery men on ice wagons were notified that they must refuse to de- liver ice to the negroes. It was inti- mated to them that any company which sold to the negroes would find itself without customers among the 100 members of the Forest Park Heights Improvement Association. One member said the same rule would apply to coal dealers, and that the negroes would be prevented from lar- ing a supply of coal to last through the winter. Every druggist, grocer, butcher and tradesman for many blocks in every direction of the house is to be noti- fied, according to W. D. Williams, one of the members of the association, that nothing shall be sold to the ne- groes. Brown Asks $10,000 for House. Brown was in a peaceful mood last night and did not exhibit the two rifles and shotgun, which he showed to a reporter yesterday morning, say- ing significantly that he was not afraid of being “run out” by force. “No boycott will get us out of here,” said Brown last night. “We buy all our provisions downtown anyway, and are not dependent on these little st@eres out here. “T bought this house and intend to stay here unless I can sell it for $10,000. That is the least I will take.” Many members of the improvement association say they believe Brown was hired to move into the house with the expectation that a large price would be paid to get him out. These members say they do not be- lieve he owns it. The house is occupied by Brown, his wife and mother and four men, who, he says, are his cousins.

need mm rar OUT OF $50,000 SILENTLY WORKING Women Pass ‘Th ‘Through Ve- hicles, Giving Out Cam- paign Literature. WILL HOLD A PARADE Brewery. Activity in Politics Will Be Wielded as a Club. The United Railways Co. has‘ been impressed as an ally by enterprising members of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, who are prosecut- ing a “dry” campaign of silence and circulars .and employing the street Cars during rush hours as vehicles for the distribution of their pungent literature. The campaigners anticipate no pro- test from the United Railways Co., because one of Capt. McCulloch's rigid rules for his employes is being used a5 a prohibition argument. This regulation is that no motorman shall enter a saloon, on pain of dismissal. A small reward is offered by the com- pany for information on which a motorman may be found guilty of en- tering a bar. On account of this order» several saloons have gone out of business at the divisional points of the-street car system. Brewers as a Club. Another prohibition argument, which the “drys’’. are planing to em- ploy in their street car campaigna, is the prominence of Otto F. Stifel and “Tony” Stuever, millionaire brewers, in the local Republican and Democratic political organizations. “The combination brewery domina- tion of both parties in St. Louts,” said one prohibition worker, “has furnish- ed us with a club which we shal! wield with all our might. ‘Down with Stifel and Stueéver’ will be a great rally- ing .cry for us.” Hundreds of street car passengers during the afternoon hours have opened their eyes at the spectacle of earnest women, squirming through the press with the dexterity of eel- men conductors before the day of P-A-¥Y-E cars, and dealing cards and circulars rapidly to the right and left. If questioned, the distributers shake their heads as a sign of mute- ness. In fact, the circulars are vocal enough to speak for themselves. Cards Are Eloqwent. “Will You Help Make Missouri Dry Nov. 8, 19107" is one of the appeals which shouts from a card, bearing the American flag and a cord by which it may be suspended from the button-hole. “Missouri has the larg- est brewery in the world, and the largest penitentiary,” is the legend on a leaflet. ‘‘Have you a boy to spare for the prison?” is a large-typed query, following after the assertion that “Prohibition Maine sent to the penitentiary in 1908 65 convicts; li- cense Missouri sent to the penitenti- ary in 1908 887 convicts.” This species of campaign was in- itiated by Miss Fannie D. Robb, sec- retary of the St. Louis district of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union. Literature to Saloonist. “Tl gave a batch of ‘dry’ literature to a crowd of saloon keepers on the street car just the other night,” said Miss Robb yesterday to a Post-Dis- patch reporter. “I know they were saloon keepers because the leader looked just like a typical picture of a liquor dealer. “‘T was getting off the car, and did not look back until I reached the rear platform. The men had torn my leaflets to bits and were dancing on the pieces. They had been dis- cussing the state-wide prohibition campaign before I gave them the cir- culars.’’ It is at such critical stages that Miss Robb’s policy of silence is re- lied upon to rout the “enemy.” “We are not going to have any con- troversies on the street cars or in other places,” she said. “We will not hold conversations with the passen- gers or enter into arguments. We pass out the cards and proceed on our way. Are Avoiding Disputes. “To avoid disputes, we have found it most expedient to distribute the literature as we are leaving the cars. Then we can escape to the street be- fore anyone has time to become quar- relsome. “As yet our agents do not ride On the cars for the express purpose of distributing ‘dry’ literature. If we have occasion to use the cars, we take some circulars and pass them Out at the most favorable time.” The members of the W.C. T. U. are planning a street parade to be held in October. Then the most striking in- dictments against the “demon rum” will be transferred to transparencies and banners. CHAMP CLARK'S SON SPEAKS

ELKINS Duke Sends Cablegram From Switzerland to Heiress in Baden-Baden.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. BASLE, Switzerland, Aug. 13.—The Duke of the Abruzzi arrived here last Tuesday from Italy and registered at the Hotel Three Kings at “Sig. Sorreto.”’ He departed Wednesday for Baden- Baden, after sending the following tele- gram to Miss Katherine Elkins, who, with her mother, had been at Baden- Baden for a few days: “Shall be glad to see you. I am ar- riving this evening. ABRUZZI.” ROYAL LOVER AND AMERICAN GIRL WERE TO MEET IN PARIS Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. Copyright, 1910, by the Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) PARIS, Aug. 13.—Mrs. Stephen B. EIl- kins and her charming daughter, Miss Katherine, will be here next week, the Post-Dispatch correspondent is reliably informed. But every effort is being made to keep their plans secret. Simultaneously comes the news that the Duke of the Abruzzi has left Italy on a 'motor trip without announcing his destination. It was expected chaperoned by her and her adventurous admirer would -meet here last year, but they circum- ‘vented the curious by arranging their meeting at a little watering place near ‘the French frontier. They may adopt the same plan this year. A friend of the Elkins family tells the Post-Dispatch correspondent that Mrs. Elkins and Miss Katherine will go to some less conspicuous place, Aix-les- Bains probably, before coming to Paris. Announcement Expected Soon. Mother and daughter will return to America {in a few weeks. Then their friends here generally believe the Amer- ican girl's engagement to her royal suitor would be formally announced, and their marriage will not be delayed much longer. The report, originating here, that the royal family had withdrawn objections to Abruzzi’s marriage to Miss Elkins was followed immediately by a denial from home, but it is a mistake to speak of the “Italian royal family’’ as oppos- ing the marriage. As these dispatches have told, King Victor has never frowned on his cousin’s marriage to the fair. American, but Dowager Queen Margherita has opposed it. Have Met Near Italy. The Duke, his closest friends say, would rejoice to marry Miss Elkins de- spite the Dowager Queen, but his lady love feared Queen Margherita would make her position at the Italian court unhappy, even untenable. Miss Elkins and her mother have been at various watering places in Austria, near the Italian frontier, this summer. There is no doubt that the Duke has made flying automobile trips to visit her. It may be that he has convinced her that as his wife her place in the royal family and at the Quirinal would be assured. Special that Miss Elkins, mother of course,

Crane Pliucks Man’s Eye Out. TeTesear Na PRaPeatanS Burns Diploma to Show What He Thinks of University. SYRACUSE, N. Y., Aug. 13.—Dean Sheppard and Prof. Paul C. Nugent of the Lyman C. Smith College of Ap- plied Science fared badly in fist fights with Herbert W. Faus, a graduate of the civil engineering department. Vexed over the delay in obtaining his diploma after he had made up two subjects in which he was back because of his time given to athletics, Faus walked Into the dean’s office and said: “If you want to know what I think of this institution and your diploma, I wil) show you,” and he started to light a cigar with the diploma. “Don't try that or there will be trou- ble, young man,’ warned the dean, but Faus was not frightened. ‘If that is what you mean.” replied Faus, ‘just take off your glasses,” While the diploma was burning in the student’s hand the dean struck him on the nose, drawing blood and cutting it. Faus retaliated and had by far the bet- ter of the argument. After this en- counter Faus went to the home of Prof. Nugent and had another fight. 52 YEARS IN OWE REGIMENT Irishman Retires, Gets Pension of 37 Cents a Day. » LONDON, Aug. 13.—The oldest soldier in the British Army—Drummer Richard Hogan of the York and Lancaster Regiment—has retired from the. army, after serving 52 years with the colors.

BRAZIL'S BATTLESHIP ‘BIGGEST | Rio de Janeiro Has Twice Dis- placement of Dreadnaught. LONDON, Aug. 18.—The new battleship Rio-de Janeiro, which Messrs. Arm-

for Brazil, will be by far the largest in the world. Accerding to the “Engineer,” she wil displace 32,000 tons, and will mount twelve 14-inch guns. Her cost will be epproximateély $14,500,090. The Rio de Janeiro will be almost twice as large a5 our original Dread- and mounts ten 12-inch kung The 82,000 ton battleship and the 14-inch guns are for all other powers except Brazil only on paper. Great Britain’s largest ship is the Orion, to be launched at Portsmouth next month. She will displece only 22,- tw tons. It is said that the battle- ship-c:uiser Lion, soon to be launched at Devonport, will displace 26,000: tons. As striking as any feature of the Bragzilian battleship ie her secondary armament, which consists of fourteen 6- inch guns, fourteen 4-inch guns, three six-pounder landing guns, six machine automatic guns, and three 18-inch tor- pedo tubes under water. This Brazilian battieship when com- pleted will be the greatest fighting ma- chine ever devised by the ingenuity of man. HAIRPIN A. BOON 70 AUTOIST Repairs Weak Batteries Saves Long Walk. THOROFARE, N. J., Aug. 13.—Harry A. De Hart Jr., an automobile enthusi- ast, has bought @ package of hairpins and says he never again will travel without them. While autoing his bat- teries gave out and the machine stopped. After working about a half hour he found tNat a piece of wire was hecessary, but among his appliances none could be found. He walked a half mile to a farm and asked the woman of the hoise if she had a small piece of wire. The nearest she had was a hairpin, so De Hart took this, applied a portion of it to the batteries and found it was just ‘what he Wanted. Hence the package of pins now carried in the tool kit.

ACTOR ENTHUSES OVER ARTISTRY IN PASSION PLAY

Declares,. Acting Was the Most Marvelous He Ever Witnessed. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World, Copyright, 1910, by the Press Pub. ¢ (New York World.) 7 PARIS, Aug. 13.—Americans returning from Oberammergau are of very differ- ent minds about the Passion Play. Some consider it “interesting,” while a few have gone so far as to call it “sacri- legous graft.’’ But Wditer.Hale, artist, actor and author, and his wife, Louise Ciosser ~ Hale, actress ‘and ‘authoress, came back to Paris this week enthusias- tic in praise of the histrionic work ef the Bavarian peasant-actors. “The very crudities in the acting, which Americans resent, most appealed to us,” said Hale to the Post-Dispatch correspondent. “In our party were Viola Allen, Dustin Farnum and William If. Thompson, all actors with long stage training. We all agreed with Miss Allen that the Passion Play is the most inarvelous stage production we have ever seen. “The little faults in it are such as a competent modern stage manager could remedy in one rehearsal, but that very fact showed us it is the work o’ peasants devotedly sincere in their ef- fort to do their best for themselves, io translate for themselves in their acting the deep emotions that plainly fill and| animate them. “What impressed us most was the dignity trese simple folk put tn their parts. ‘They assume majestic reles with a conviction, a surety, that car- ries the audience. The twnembers of our little party knew that good acting re- sults only from hard, hard work and is hard work. You cannot take anyone from the street, put him in a part and expect him. to do well. These peasants, who have no stage training, who for 1) years at a time lead their ordinary lives off the stage, were alinost perfect in their parts and acted in a way tha* would do credit to actors of great ta}- ent and long training. Taking it alto- gether, I consider it the greatest ex- ample of acting I ever saw.”

$1.25 A PAIR. TOURISTS SEEKING BRET HARTE'S WES ARE DISAPPOINTED English Captain and Titled Wife Pleased With All but Hotels.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—An inter- esting couple of tourists, Capt. Ralph G. A. Hamilton and his wife, Lady Grezel Hamilton, who are now on the last trip of a world tour, under- taken mainly that Capt. Hamilton might explore the battlefields of Manchuria, sailed for England on the Celtic. Capt. Hamilton is the eldest son of Lord Belham and Stenton, Command- er-in-Chief of the Indian Militia. The}. son was in the regular army, ut is now attached to the territorial force. Lady Grezel, charming, entertain- ing and sensible, is the eldest daugh- ter of the Earl of Dundonald. “The condition of the Japanese military forces is very much better than any one imagines,” said _ the Captain. “There is no suggestion of the ‘Sojiman’ of comic opera about the Mikado’s fighting chaps. “As for the Chinese army, no one knows how big it is. When the Chi- nese wake up some day there will be a ‘hell of a row.” “T am amazed at the conditions in the United States,” said Lady Grezel. “T find that I had formed my ideas of America principally from reading Bret Harte and was surprised to find civilization everywhere, especially in the West, so finished and _ up-to- date.” She spoke particularly of the Am- erican magazines which were “a dis- covery” to. her. “Your magazines are vastly superior to our magazines at home,” she said. The Captain is so enthusiastic over the great West that he has decided to return next winter with Lady Hamilton for -a shooting trip to the Rockies. There was one feature of American life the Captain did not like, and his wife nodded her approval of her hus- band’s criticisms. “But your hotels,” he said, “they are horrid. My only protest is against your hotels, especi- ally those visited in this city.” ARRESTED IN MASSACHUSETTS FOR RUSSIAN BANK ROBBERY BOSTON, Aug. 18.—The theft of 100,- 000 rubles (about $60,000) in Govern- ment notes from the sub-treasury at Tiflis, Russian trans-Caucasia, in 1907 is charged against Andrew Rullow, who was taken before United States Commissioner Darling here today and held for a hearing. Rullow has been living for some time in Squantum and is a music teacher. 500 rubles each which were stolen have been recovered. The Russian Government, after a three years’ ineffectual search for the robber, requested the State Depart- ment to co-operate in trying to fina him. Chief Wilkie of the secret ser-

: STUIEVER AGENT I A WAR CENTER OF KINNEY'S FACTION Congressional Candidate From Twelfth District Fights Lawler Daley. LEMPS ARE INVOLVED Meeting on Tuesday Will De- cide Membership of State Committee. Efforts of Lawler Daley, an acknowl- edged lMeutenant of Tony Stuever, the millionaire brewer who has returned to political activities after a five years’ period “out of the game,’ to be electe. @ member of the Democratic State Committee from the Twelfth Congres- sional District have precipitated a lively fight there with the faction headed by Thomas E. Kinney and his brother Mike Kinney. Daley is attempting to break the slate decided on at a caucus of six of the seven members of the committee last Sunday, when an agreement to elect Arthur J. Fitzsimmons and Patrick ODonnell was reached. He is reported to have won over two members ef the committee and needs only one more to have a majority.. Daley is willing for O'Donnell to be elected, but he wants to be his colleague. Lemps Are to Give Aid. This. fight, together with StueVer's plan to defeat Joseph Hannauer for élection to the State Committee from the Tenth District, has caused .Han- mauer and the Kinneys to negotiate for help with the result, politicians gay that Charles and Edward Lemp, representing the Lemp brewery inter- ests are quietly wotking for Hannauer and for the Kinneys. Although he has never been a political figure in St. Louis, Edwin Lemp is reputed to have joined hands with his brother to save Hannauer from defeat. Stuever is believed to have had the backing of the old Butler crowd in his fight which obtained for him control of the Democratic City Committee, and his fight now is to foree the election of his friends to the State Committee. The . Kinneys and Butler have not been friends. Thomas E. Kinney, at the primary Aug. 2, had an easy victory over Colin M. Selph, the Butler candi- ‘@ate for the congressional nomination in the Twelfth. Stuever and the Butlers, however, by qulet work won their way at the City Committee election a week ago, Herman W. Fay, a Stuever favorite, winning the chairmanship. The congressional committees will meet Tuesday to elect members of the State Committee. A caucus arranged by the Kinneys in the Twelfth met yester- day. It was attended by Committee- men Patrick O'Donnell, Rice, Arthur J. Fitzsimmons, John Clooney, Boogher and Mike Kinney. It was determined to elect Fitzsimmons: and: O'Donnell members of the State Committee. Lawler Daley, hearing of the confer- erice, began active work, and, according to politicians yesterday, he had won over O'Donnell and Boogher. Daley wants to be O’Donnell’s mate on the committee. Daley lacks one vote of enough to contrel the Twelfth District “Committee. The Kinney faction, declares he has all he can get. Agreement Is Reached. In the Tenth District, Hannauer, with backing of the Lemps, has not quit fighting, though a caucus of 10 of the 13 members of the committee met at Forest Park Highlands at Stuever’s di- rection and agreed to leave Hannauer off the committee. The slate, which politicians said does appear to be in danger, is for John P. Haney and Joseph Helderle to be chosen Tuesday. In the Eleventh District, Michael J. Mulvihill and W. J. (Boots) Brennan are scheduled to be chosen. So far no opposition has developed to them, the , factions seeming to take little interest in that district.

As a result of cor- respondence between the Corydon Chap- ter of the Daughters of the American Revolution and Benjamin W. Douglass, State Entomologist, the latter has sent Deputy Wallace to Corydon to see what can be done. The large cavities are to be cleaned cut and filled with cement in much the same manner that a dentist fills a tooth. The exposed parts from which Hmbs have dropped off or have been cut will be treated scientifically and the whole tree will be sprayed with a solution of arsenite of lead. s* ¢ ®8 Chicken With Four Legs Walks. As If It Had Locomotor Atazia. MUNCILE, Ind., Aug. 13.—Frank Hum- barger, a farmer living four miles north of Muncie, has a chicken on his farm that possesses four legs, but can not walk. When it attempts walking it uses all four legs at once and staggers like @ man with locomotor ataxia until it falls down. Humbarger, however, has begun teach- ing it to use only two legs and he believes that with patience he will scon have the fowl able to ‘‘navigate,’’' although prob- ably not as gracefully as some chick- ens. ae o * Fish Like Sacred Music; Discovery Made by Resorters.

PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 13. —Physi- cians are investigating the death of William Douglas, who died following an operation when a live turtle egg, which had germinated in his stomach. was re- moved. Douglas swallowed the egg while eating soup. es ss Polly Cries Fire! and Saves Herself and Property. HUNTINGTON, Ind., Aug. 13.—Peter Young’s poll parrot saved its own life, as well as its owner's property and pos- sibly a number of the Erie railroad company’s cars when its cries of ‘‘Help! Murder! Police! Fire! Poor Polly! Poor Polly!” attracted passersby and caused them to turn in the fire alarm and rescu® the bird. ; The family of Peter Young had gone away for the day and left the cage con- taining the bird hanging in the tree near the chicken house. Late in the afternoon a fire broke out in the out- building and Polly was soon enveloped in smoke and flame. The parrot’s cries Sttracted the people passing in the street and the department was called. The yard backs up to the Erie railroad yard and shops and before the blaze could be extinguished two cars had caught fire. But for Polly’s timely warning greater damage might have resulted. ¢* ss Man Lives to Be Ninety, Dies Without Ever a Dream. LEBANON, O., Aug. 13.—Henry L.

BAKER'S DEATH ATTRIBUTED TO UNLCKY SPECULATION Coroner’s Verdict Is That Will- iam Adams, Found Dead, Ended Own Life. The death of William Adams, whose body was found in the basement of his home, 3915 St. Louis avenue, with bullet wounds through the brain and in the region of the heart, is attributed by the police to the man's despondency resulting from unlucky speculation. The Coroner returned a _ verdict of suicide yesterday. There was some mys- tery as to the manner of Adams’ death owing to indications the police say that the wound which pierced the heart was inflicted first. Both wounds were of the sort to be instantly fatal. The body was discovered in the base- ment Friday by the dead man’s wife, Mrs. Phoebe Adams, and daughter, June, 17 years old. Each made a state- ment to the Coroner, which was accept- ed. “According to neighbors Adams had heen speculating and suffered heavy losses. Several checks given by him to merchants in payment of small bills were declared to have been re-’ turned with the notation, “insuffj- cient -funds.”’ Adams sold his bakery business at 2749 North Vandeventer avenue last January to F.

MEN AND 69 HORSES START BATTERY ON WAY Ten Days “Hike” in Vicinity of St. Louis Has Auspi- cious Beginning. NATIVES NOT SURPRISED Peaceful Invasion of the Su- burbs Met Unexpected Complaisance. Battery A, 4 men strong, in camp at Spring Park, South Kirkwood, will rumble over St. Louis County roads today on the second stage of its ten days’ “hike,”’ with Pureka Springs,as its destination. The battery, with 66 horses drawing its two caissons, two transports, one ambulance and several baggage wagons, started from the Armory on South Grand avenue yesterday at ll a. m. Two hours later the bugies sounded ‘“halt’ and the mess call, and tke bat- tery grouped itself under ,##@ trees on Big Bend road, in Webster Groves township, and partook of hot coffee, sandwiches, sausage ama cheese. There was no huryy about resuming the road, for all i afternoon remained to get to Kirkwo and the men could have walked there on their hands and knees in that time. It was 5 p. m. when they reached their camping place at Hamburger avenue and Denny road. v Approve Spot for Camp. The artillerymen dismounted, and after some critical glances, approved the judgment of the scouts who had picked their first night’s camping place. Then tents were pitched and ditched, the cooking kit installed, and Jeff Jones, a negro hotel chef, did his best amid the confusion to get’ din- ner. “Natives” displayed only a mild interest in. the battery. The nearest the city soldiers came to surprising anyone was ih.the case of oné pros- perous farmer, “who vyolunteered the statement that he had never before geen three teams of horses hitched in the manner in use by the battery. Bolied potatoes, hamburger steak with tomato sauce and coffee were the supper courses, There was no “lid” in the officers’ quarters, and provision against a dry Sunday was conspicuous in the form of several cases of future “empties.” Eureka will be the camping place to- night, and the battery will move Mon- day to Elleardsville, Tuesday to Creve Coeur, Wednesday to St. Charles for two days’ practice on the rifle range theré; Friday to a point north of Flor- issant, and Saturday to old Fort Belle- fontdine. There the battery will camp until the return to the city the follow- ing Wednesday or Thursday, Aug. AA, or Regular Army Officers Along. Lieut. B. O. Sanguinet commands the battery on the practice ‘hike,’ with: Inieuts. Peck, Warner, Pim and War- ner, the latter acting as quartermas- ter. Lieut. P. D. Glassford, U. S. A., is along as inspector and instructor. Many of the St. Louis friends and rel- atives of the artillerymen cheered the cavaicade as it swung out of the armory. City friends will visit the campers at Creve Coeur and other places where they stop this week. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD TO USE STEEL PASSENGER CARS Entire System Will Be Equipped as Fast as Coaches Can Be Manufactured. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 13.—The Penn- syivania Lines today announced the ‘placing of an order for 2000 all-steel cars to equip the passenger service of the entire system. The coaches are be- ing delivered as they are completed and are being put in service immediately. The Pennsylvania now haz in use 704 ‘steel cars which have proved success- ful im every respect. Each steel coach weighs 118,500 pounds, while the ordi- mary wooden coach weighs only 8,000

The Pullman Company is now bullding ali-stesl sleeping cars for the Penn- syivania and within a few months only steel Pullmans will be in use on that road, The new Pullman will be deliver- ed at the rate of 830 per month. The steel construction permits the upper berths to be made larger. ST, LOUISAN CATCHES TURTLE THAT 1S YARD ACROSS SHELL Reptile Seizes Stick and Hangs On Until It Is Dragged Ashore. John Frerichs of 1627 North Broad- way made almost a record catch when he landed a snapping turtle measuring 36 inches in diameter and weighing 87 pounds at Bluff Lake on the Fast Side. As a result, Frerich and his friends enjoyed a dinner yes- terday in which turtle soup was the principal course. Yrerichs was fistfing near Center- ville Station when he saw the tur. tle sunning itself at the water's edge, He thrust a stick at the snapper and it grabbed it. It refused to let loose, which served Frerich's purpose very well. The turtle pulled one way and Frerichs' another, and Frerichs was victorious, He landed the turtle on the bank and tied it securely with a

rope. ' Prerichs hired a wagon and brought the turtle to St. Louis and invited | bis friends to dinner. | _ We mre still feeding the peopie.

DuBarrie Explains How the Bust May Be Developed 2 to ‘ 8 Inches in 30 Days. “JT am explaining for the first time to the ladies of America,’’ says Madame DuBarrie, “the French method of de- veloping the bust. Et is much more éf- fective, the results @ppear much more quickly, the breasts become more firm, plump and symmetrical, the method is more simple, the effects more lasting,

and altogether beyond comparison with the results produced here. “You know the French people have the development of the bust and form down to a fine point. “By this French method, the breasts may be developed from 2 to 8 inches in 30 days. This applies to women of a)- most any age, from young girls to elderly matrons, whether the bust is absolutely not developed at all aprrown weak, no matter from what cause. that attracts 4 Rane beth eekeae will 4 too - vy ser ny is. le a Sehe if rests enclo ° this somarkable Frenc enclose 2 cents in for the LARGEST TOMATO. PROP IN STATE IN ST.LOUIS COUNTY Anthon Brothers Realize Big Profits From Vegetable Field.

The record for amount of production and early crop in the tomato market at St. Louis was won this year by Law- rence, Charles and John Anthon, broth- ers, who have the largest tomato field in Missouri. They have 50 acres at Olive Street and Bonhomme roads, St. Louts County, which will produce this year “about 5,000900 tomatoes. The ‘Brothers,/left 10 years ago the only .support gf a widowed mother, started’“a truck» garden, raising fruits and yegetables, They speedily discov- ered that there was -profit in tomatoes, and they, gradu@ily increased the to- mato acteage and stopped planting oth- er vegetables. One ofthe first items in successful tomato growing is*to obtain an early market, they deC@lareé. The Anthons for -several years havé ~béén the first to ‘reach the.mvarket with home-grown to- matogs. Their hothouse product - has been marketed in the first days of the tomato demand, and has sold at $3.25 a bushel. This year they received $1400 for the hothouse product, which was yield- ed by 3000 plants. The field vines do not pay out in the same proportion. While the first mar- keting from the field brings a fairly good price, the majority of the tomatoes from the field vines sell at from 10 to 20 cents a bushel. The Anthons reached the market this year a week ahead of local competitors. Their fleld is expect- ed to yield a crop worth about $4000. The Anthons say they have learned it is wise to’ raise only the better @ifali- ty of tomatoes. They go over the vines carefully in the early days of the grow- ing and pick all the dwarfed and gnarled tomatoes, leaving only the fell-shaped ones to receive the full strength of the vine. They have planned to add three more acres to the tomato field next year, which. will mean an addition of 30,000 plants. AUSTRIA WISHES TO HONOR

Henry Studniczka Was Once Member of. St. Louis. School Board. Henry Studniczka, former member of the School Board and active in Re- publican politics in St. Louis, now em- ployed in the Department of Com- meree and Tabor, has been notified to present to him a gold medal for vaior in the war between Austria ang Prussia in 1866, according to a specia) cablegram to the Post-Dispatch from Vienna. . Studniczka is now in Vienna on a mission for the department. He was 18 years old when he entered the Austrian army, and in the battle of Koeniggratz he was wounded four times. Had he remained in Austria, he would have received high honor many years ago, but he came to St. Louis at the close of the war, and has resided in America since that time. — FINDS FIDDLE 175 YEARS OLp HAZLETON, Pa.

i lie Ais Cag Pe, ee COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 13.—The third last _ ihe Supreme Court. oe sade Lefgreen’s suit was decided ad- Yersely two years ago by Circuit Judge insey after her attorneys had appeal- “sd from a similar decision by Probate x Crews. The probate judge, in ‘his decision, declared that Mrs. Leaf- _green’s claim was devoid of good faith. "Was founded on flimsy pretexts and as an unwarranted assault on the es- Yate and on the name of Howard and “yf his orphan daughter. Mrs. Leafgreen nad tried to prove that Howard mar- “Hed her in Illinois 26 years before “thd had deserted her. *““After Judge Kinsey’s decision a trans- hertgt of the evidence was made and all the records placed together. Attorney “§'Connor later found that two volumes of ‘“iestimony and other proceedings had “fisappeared, and he recently obtained “‘in order from Judge Kinsey against Direult Clerk Graves to show cause “why the missing records should not be ‘teplaced. ©’ "Me. Graves, in response to the order, *gaid that the transcript was prepared band filed before he became Circuit Clerk, and that he was not informed Tibout it. He had employes make a search of the Courthouse, but they *found nothing. * The Circuit Clerk, Attorney O’Connor sand the attorneys for the Howard es- “ jate all are agreed that the records were stolen, but they say they do not know what the motive could have been. aAttorney O'Connor wants the court to oes the Clerk, as custodian of the , to pay for rewriting the evidence, keh would cost about $800, ely spite of the refusal of the Republican organization of his district longer to stand with him, * “T‘do not recognize insurgency,” said Congressman Boutell, in a state- mont announcing that he refuses to abide by the will of the organiza- tion leaders in the Ninth Congres- sional District. “Insurgency is nothing if it does not lead to anarchy. I will be a can- didate for renomination and I will run as a Republican, as I understand Republicanism.” Observers of the situation in which Boutell found himself, pointed out the satire disclosed by the fact that he pins his last resort hope on the pri- maries. Boutell was one of the most veciferous opponents of the primary law. He said that the principles of the primary were opposed to those of “representative” government. He did not explain what he meant by repre- sentative government, but apparently he did not mean government by the voters to whom now he must appeal. The refusal of the North Side organ- ization chieftains, acting as they de- clared, in response to the progres- sive sentiment in the district, was an Iliinois political firebrand,

On the taxable values in St. Louls and Sst. Louis County, this tax would produce an annual revenue of $1,000,000. $2 a Year for $5000. That figure is the maximum, how- ever. The commission has the power to fix the amount to be used accord- ing to needs. In Boston at the pres- ent time only $500,000 is used to main- tain its outer park belt. It has been estimated that $250,000 or one-quar- ter of the amount authorized in the enabling act would maintain the out- er park and boulevard system for St. Louls for many years to come. The total cost to a property holder having a $5000 house, if the commis- sion assessed the maximum levy, would be $5.75 per annum, In Bos- ton, where $500,000 annually is ex- pended on its parks, including bath- ing beaches and recreation buildings, the cost to taxpayers is about 82.50 per annum. As but half of this amount is necessary for the purposes of St. Louis and vicinity fer years to come, the total cost to an owner with $5000 property would be less than $2.00 a year. City officials are contemplating be- ginning the outer park district at Chain of Rocks Park, a site already in the possession of the city.

OS HE ai

The road was primarily built to connect the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Associa- tion’s properties with the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern Railway. facturers’ Railway Company was duly incorporated in 1887. and at that time the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern furnished the only switching facilities in South St. Louis. The growth of the Manufacturers’ Railway, both as to mileage and in popular favor, has been remarkable. i Beginning as a semi-industrial proposition, the demands for adequate railroad facilities increased so rapidly that the road was steadily extended until it is now handling 5000 cars a month, with an average tonnage of more than 60,000 tons. leney of service is the keynote of success attained by the Manufacturers’ Railway, anil its patrons—beginning with the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Association down to the last newly added industry—are all constant in their good cheer and praise of the ser. ice The Second street Tine will afford magnificent opportunities for industrial locations. ane John Nooter Boiler Works has just built a magnificent plant on Second street, near "Wpayenue, and is now operating one of the most thoroughly equipped boiler plants tress The Nooter plant is the latest addition to the Manufacturers’ iisitear Oomiany’ 8 growing family, and within the year it is confidently expected that many more heavy industrial works will seek the excellent facilities and service that ean be secured along the Second street extension of the Manufacturers’ Railway. The Mercantile Trust Company has, for a number of months, had agents in this territory securing by outright purchase and options many available factory sites along Second street. There are‘ also exceptionally good locations for coal yards on this new j The public has been assured by the Owners of the Manufacturers’ Railway Com- pany that eyery pledge made to the City of St. Louis will be more than fulfilled. J udg- ing the future by the past, such a statement is accepted at its full face value, and the shippers of South St. Louis feel as though they are entering into a greater era of prog- perity than would have been possible had not this new terminal company determined to branch out and grow with the growth of St. Louis.

BASEBALL GAME 10 PROVIDE FU FUR FREE BRIDGE

‘Not the Same Old Bridge, but One Between’ the Two Clifton Heights.

The Mtinicipal Freé Bridge, lke human wisdom, may progress haiting- ly, bet not 80 with the bridge across the Rivér des Peres which is of para- mount importance to the residents of North Clifton Heights ‘and South Clif- ton Heights. Waiting upon the favor of no man or set of men, they are go- ing to build it themselves, and they expect to have most of the necessary money by noon. today. It is this way: East of the Scullin- Gallagher Iron and Steel Works on Manchester. avenue, 14 blocks of King’s Highway, there is a gmall foot- bridge, three or four feet wide, con- structed of wire cables, which was built by neighborhood subscriptions. Years ago there was a railroad crossing at this point. After it was abandoned, the wire bridge was slung across the River des Peres on ped old foundation. This is in daily use by 500 persons who work downtown and who have to walk 10 blocks one way and four another to get from the Tower Grove street-car line to the Manchester line. Need a Stronger Bridge. The residents of the two Clifton Heights recently decided that the lit- tle footbridge would answer their purpose no longer, as the cagy little river threatens to destroy it every time it goes on a spree. So they de- cided to build a new one. But how to get the money? That was the question. Some bright body happened to think of the foxy Ham- let’s scheme when he said ‘’The play’s the thing.” and, by association of ideas, the word “play” made him think of ball. Sure! Play ball. Whag¢ could be easier? So A. A. Van Cleave of 2555 Clifton avenue and Edward Bre. ksechmidtt of 6833 Manchester avenue get to- gether and framed up a _ baseball game for the benefit of the Clifton Heights free bridge. These Men Will Play. The game will be played this morn- Ing in Vnplewood Park, beginning at $ o'clock. The line-up will be as fol- lows: For South Clifton—A. A. Van Cleave. captain. First base, Belle or Droes- thel; second base, .Whitmore or Schramm; third base, Van Cleave oar Branch: shortstop, Metz or Knapp: right field, Haney or Dawson; center field, Staley or Clymer; left field, Buechner or Kerner; catcher, Morgan or Garley; piteher, Owens or Merin- ger.

Schultz or Moore; shortstop, Smitty or Cane: right field, T. O’Gorman or Kissane; center field, P. Dolan or Hugh; left field, Murphy or w.

Eagles will fly St. Loulsward next Sunday and will roost here a week. For their entertainment, and for prizes to be distributed among them, the local aerie has raised $13,000 by private sub- scription, according to an announcement last evening by the Executive Commit- tee. Predictions are being made that the visitors will be entertained in royal style, although not so much money will be on hand as was at first expected. The local aerie expected to get $25,000 from the Convention Bureau of the Business Men's League, but this has not been turned over, and the Executive Committee is raising the money by pri- vate subscription instead. The Business Men’s League is said to have concluded that it had helped St. Louis entertain enough conventions recently and decided that its members could contribute to this gathering individually, instead of through the organization. Rudolph F. Hoffman, a member of the Eagles’ Executive Committee, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he falled to understand the action of the Con- ventions Bureau, Position an Embarrassing One. “We were placed in an embarrassing position,”” Hoffman said. ‘““‘We were in- formed by the Grand Aerie, from headquarters in Kansas City, that the local aerie, would not have to worry about expense, as $25,000, had been prom- jsed by the Business Men’s League. We turned down an offer from Dayton, O. Dayton wanted the 1919 convention. Ws “The Grand. Aerie thought the &r. Louis offer better, and it was accepted. But Tom L. Cannon, the secretary of the Conventions Bureau, informed us that St. Louis had had too many con- ventions; that the St. Louis business men were surfeited with appeals. “Brewers of the city have promised us $5000 if we raise $10,000. Capt. Mc- Cullough has pledged $600 for the Unit- e4 Railways Co., and other business enterprises have contributed liberally.” Hoffman says Secretary Cannon is not to blame for the failure to keep the agreement with the Eagles, but that the executive committée of the bureau has failed to give the fraternal order any definite assurances. Hoffman says Goodman King, a member of the com- mittes, has promised the Eagles $500 or $600, which he will personally raise. Visiting aeries, it is said, will spend large sums of money, making a show in St. Louis, notably the aerie of San Francisco, which expects to spend a liberal sum equipping its members for the parade. What Money Is For. Those charged with raising funds to guarantee the success of the conven- tion are James C. Shannessy, president of the local aerte;+ Louis’ Nathan, Campbell Allisun, Dr. Frank Frye, Sam- uel Smith, Rudolph F. Hoffman and C. P. Cole. The money raised is to be used for prizes to degree teams; prizes for bands; credits for aeries coming the greatest | distance, and for the entertainment of wives of the members of local and vis- iting aeries. Members of the local aerie have con- tracted for a band to play at Union Station to welcome all the arriving aeries. All contests for prizes will be conducted in Northwest Turn and Liederkranz Hall,’ 3940 Easton avenue. One of the entertainments will be a picnic at Forest Park Highlands after the parade, Aug. 2%. The parade, which, it is said, will have 25,000 Bagles in line, will march .between Twelfth, Wash- ington avenue; Fourth and Elm streets. Acting ‘Mayor Gundlach is tn accord with assisting the Eagles to entertain their brethren in St. Louls. He ex- pressed the hope that S8t. Louisans IN JUVENILE COURT Case of Clarence Wilkins, Who Killed Man, First of Kind in Local Tribunal. Clarence Wilkins, 15 yearns old, was convicted yesterday of mansfaughter in the fourth degree, after a trial last- ing two days. The jury deliberated three hours before returning a _ ver- dict. The boy was indicted for murder, the charge being that he had killed Otto Jahrung, but the jury reduced the charge. This was the first case of the kind ever tried in the Juvenile Court of St. Louis. The punishment for this offense in Missouri is a fine or im- prisonment in the penitentiary not to exceed two years, or both Judge Hitchcock, who is presiding over the court in the absence of Judge Grimm, will sentence the bor and. fix. the penalty. His home was at 1418 Brook- lyn street. Jahrung was killed June 2, 1910, at Blair avenue and Salisbury street. He was stabbed by Wilkins while he was acting as peacemaker in an argument petween Wilkins and another boy fol- lowing the loss of 35 cents in a dice game. Jahrung lived at Fifteenth and Salis- bury streets, and heard the boys’ quar- rel. When he went out and recom- mended that Wilkins return the % cents to his playmate, Wilkins went home and returned with his two brothers.

STREET SHOW SUBSTANTIAL ADVANCES AT WEER’S CLOSE

Union Pacific, Reading and Steel Are Leaders in the Rise. LONDON Foreigners Are Impressed by Our Strong Bank Position. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—The Evening Post in its weekly financial review today says: It has not needed even the evidence of the Stock Exchange to prove that the feeling of the community, in re- gard to the financial outlook gen- erally, has this week grown more cheerful. One ready explanation of the change—such as it is—may be that nothing has happened during the week. The American markets, and with them the American business community, want their financial food to bée highly spiced. The process known to the popular |' dramatists of another generation as “piling on the agony” is an essen- tial in the campaign of creating financial sentiment. If we are to be- lieve in a “boom’’ we must have stim- ulating evidence of it, and must have the evidence every day; if we can- not have daily announcements of div- idends and deals and melons, we must have daily rumors of them. Market Opinion Mixed. So also, with belief in a reaction. Something or somebody must be “in trouble” or must be rumored to be there. But if the time comes, in either boom or reaction period, when even rumor fails, and the eager listener héars nothing except the dull com- menplace of the markets, his belief in the reality of the condition of things in which he lately believed is inevitably shaken. It is possible, on occasion, to sub- stitute the mere movement of Stock Mxchange prices for both fact and rumor—this was successfully done in 1908. In the present week, however, even the stock market has ceased all semblance of activity. It was inev- itable that the public mind should begin to draw somewhat different conclusions from what it drew when the recent excitement was at its height But there are also the other reasons for at least a feeling of relief. The Wall street market does not “dis- count” coming events by half. It cer- tainly discounted a year ago, on the rise in stocks, a very great many things that never happened, and it was reasonably certain to do the same thing on the fall in stocks this sum- mer. It is true enough that the market will sometimes suddenly be con- fronted with conditions which it had not tmaegined and therefore had not discounted: that was the case in 1903 when the backward movement seemed in August to be over and done with, only to be resumed with great vio- lerice when the steel corporation passed its dividend. But ever-discounting is much more whichever way the market is moving, and in the case of the pres- ent season, it would not be easy to determine, for example, how much of the mid-summer pessimism was a re- sult of belief in trade reaction gen- erally and how much of expectation that the crops would fail. Crop Report Helps. On this -point, at all events, the present week has given some reason for change of sentiment by those who in July looked for the worst. The ‘Government crop report doés not in all respects foreshadow what the country would like to see from the harvests of 1910; but it is further still from confirming the gloomy fore. casts of a month ago. That the winter wheat crop, after all, is one of the beat in our history, and that the corn crop, notwithstand- ing the douth and the hot winds, has a fair chance of making an equally good record, are considera- tions which flatly reverse some of the predictions which had a very consid- erable influence in causing the ex- treme break of the market during July. . On the other hand, the fact that the hatvest outlook is very much better than anyone considered possible a month ago, does not make it In all re- spécts what might have been desired. The grain crop situation, both in this country and in the world at large, is in fact full of perplexity. The latest estimates point strongly to the conclusion that Europe's crop will run heavily short of expectations. If the United States had been fortunate enough to raise one of its 740,000,000 bushe) wheat crops, it would be very " . distinctly the benefictary of that situa- tion; our export trade would be enor- mously stimulated by Burope’s de- mands, and without either impairing . home reserves or creating abnormally high prices. But even with this week's reassuring estimates, the yield can hardly come Within 80,000,000 bushels of that of 1909, and we have sent out little enough of our wheat in the past 12 months. would be the effect of a But this phase in genera! situation must be kept hore perhaps in its bearing on to en financial situation than in its IS CHEERFUL outlook is most uncertain.

By leased Wire From the London Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Aug. 13.—This week's earnings statements of your Pacific roads and the strong showing of the New York banks, have made due im- pression here. .The importance of both is fully recognized: -buf® some misgiving seems to exist lest Wall Street itself will be tempted into a premature movement of prices. It is still felt here, notwithstanding the lessening of apprehension of an acute autumn stringency, that the monetary Consols Are Weak. The stock market outlook is pecul- lar. Consols went this week almost to the lowest price on record, and all genuine investment securities are Still neglected. We have had the best railway half year for years past, yet those securities, too, are neglected. The public prefers either purely spe- culative or high interest-yielding stocks, ‘ ang the same tendency is noticeable in other quarters of the market. Probably it would re- quire a real credit shock to bring money back to sound. investment channels. The week's “slump” in rubber and in rubber company shares was over- done. Just as last spring's rise in the price of rubber to thirteen shillings was largely manipulated so as to af- fect the share market, so this decline was similarly engineered, though doubtless it was assisted by your gen- eral trade conditions, especially in the automobile industry. It is unques- tionable, however, that the break in the shares was largely due to bear tactics. Public Demand Light. Kaffir operators are endeavoring to push the public out of rubber shares, and into Kaffirs. The effort, however. has been unsuccessful. Tho public bought more rubber shares at the lower level; hence the hurried closing of bear commitments later in the week, with a consequent rally in prices. The pub- lic will probably hold rubber stocks tenaciously, ultimately losing in con- sequence. Prices are even now danger- ously high, but it is believed that hold. ers will receive handsome dividends, even though rubber itself falls further. would vitally affect the rubber market; but such reaction seems now not to be generally expected. On, the con- trary, a moderate gradual recovery is looked for, always provided it is not killed by Wall street speculations. Beer- bohn has today an exhaustive estimate on the general crop outlook. He ad- mits that advices from France are more pessimistic than they have been at any previous period this year. AMALGAMATED COPPER, "arious ement a pata ent

“a are ed Fe WEATHER FAVORS GROWING COTTON IN ALL SECTIONS Oklahoma Promises Crop in History of State. heavy general

Best

While no fallen in Texas, temperatures have ruled rains have somewhat lower and the situation is not so acute as at the end of last week. Oklahoma, however, has had an inch or more of precipitation over the entire State, and as a consequence the out- look at present is most flattering. Ok- lahoma should raise considerably more cotton than ever before. Fears that the ‘“‘short squeeze’’ per- petrated in May and July would be again enacted on the August position caused much nervousness on the part of August shorts during the past week and at one time the option was quoted well above li6c as a consequence of at- tempted covering of the unprotected short interest. About 500,000 bales were delivered on the May and July posi- tions. With little or no tenderable cot- ton left in the country, and as the por- tion of August receipts of new cotton which can be laid down in New York in time for delivery during the current month is necessarily small. the condi- tions are conceded to be favorable for a squeeze in August. The unprotected short interest is estimated at from 100,- 000 to 200,000 bales. The present outlook is for a yield next season of not in excess of 12,- 500,000 bales, with a possibility of as little as 11,500,000 bales. Consider- ing that the world is practically bare of cotton and cotton products as a corsequence of last year’s short crop, it is generally conceded that a crop of from 12,000,000 to 13,500,000 bales is necessary next year, even after deducting for curtailment of manu- facture. —_—_-—__@-- NEW YORK COTTON CLOSE.

Simultaneously with an advance of over $8 per share in Lavlede Was stock l, the Wall street market, it was re. ported in local financial and vrekerage circles that the directors of the com- pany had met during the week and in- creased the dividend on the interested stock from 6 to 7 per cent, aad that tho annuonncement of the incréase would be made Monday. At the local offices of the company it was stated that all the members cf tha executive committee were out of the city and no verification of the report vas to be had. The company has outstanding $8,500,000 of common stock, which wil! participate ir. the increased distribution. Besides the common stock the com- pany has outstanding $2,500,000 of preferred stock on which a 5 per cent dividend is paid. A dividend of 6 per cent on the common stock has been paid since March, 1909. The increase in the dividend would mean that the common stock holders would receive $595,000 a vear out of the earnings of the company. This jin addition to the $125,000--paid to the preferred stockholders, would bring the amount of the company’s annual dividends up to $720,000. In addition to its capital stock the company has.a bonded indebtedness of $19,732,000 on which 5 per cent interest is paid. The interest on the bonds amounts to $986,600, which, with the dividends brings the total amount paid out annually to holders of Laclede securities up to $1,706,600. The company has 223,000 consumers. Its gross earnings in 1909 were §$3,- $1,741,508 Its charges were $1,004,- 093. After paying them it has a sur- plus left of $737,415, which was dis- tributed in dividends. The company recently offered to reduce the price of illuminating gas to 80 cents, pending the completion of a pipe line from the Louisiana natural gas fields to St. Louis. The proposition has not yet been ac- cepted. The Federal crop report issued during the week made a highly favorable show- ing and indicated a harvest that com- pares favorably with last year. Ever since the speculative collapse in the Eastern market and growing signs of a business reaction began manifest- ing themselves, the general opinion ex- pressed, has been that the country’s prosperity during the near future would depend largely on the country’s crops. On this account the Government re- port was received with general satisfac- tion, as it immediately conteracted the effect of the continuous pessimestic ut- terances of “crop experts,’’ who were rot only conveying a wrong idea of conditions in the farming sections, but instilling wide spread distrust In busi- ness and financial circles. © In local financial circles, bankers take a very optimistic view of the business outlook. Missouri promises a wheat yield of 27,697,000 bu. against 28,000,300 bu. last year, while the far- mer is reaping the benefit of a high price, brought about by a slight short- age in the spring wheat yteld, and adverse crop conditions in France which has permitted speculative forces to life prices to his interest. The Missouri farmer will receive about $138,000,000 for his 230,000,000 bu. of corn, on its present price of about 60c and over $50,000,000 for his oats, Bankers assert that with such a favorable harvest the so much talked of liquidation of farm loans, owing to supposed over speculation in land will be quite, if not entirely eliminat- ed, since the yield of the speculative lands will be ample to carry them at the country banks, which would not have been the case had the present ~~ LODAL STOCK RANGE.

GRAIN MARKETS ARE FIRM ON GOOD FOREIGN BUYING

France and Germany, on Poor Crop Outlook, Are Inclined to Import Wheat From American Supplies. -

- Foreign buying of wheat futures in domestic markets followed by an increasing export inquiry from France 'and Germany, gave the bulls a decid- 'ed advantage in the past week’s trad- ing. At first skepticism the trade looked with on the reported export business, but confirmation of about 500,000 bu going out, removed the un- certainty and prices bounded upward on confident accumulation. The buying of supplies by foreign- ers was influenced almost entirely by advance crop estimates from Ger- many, France and Russia. A curious feature of the French news is that by Broomhall's cable advices it is one day favorable, the next day unfavorable, and so on, and the trade is governed accordingly, al- though it is manifestly apparent that no crop can undergo changes from ad- versity to prosperity seven days in a week. The foreign reports are very unreliable. There is a shortage of wheat in I’rance, placed by official estimates at 40,000,000 bu, which just equals the carry over of last year’s harvest, and leaves France in a position where possi- bly 30,000,000 to 40,000,000 bu may be im ported, This would not indicate any sensa- tional export demand, especially with Russian conditions on the whole favor- able and her shipments showing heavily above last year, while our prices remain almost prohibitive against a general ex- rort movement. Kansas .City wheat receipts for the week totaled 1,987,000 bu, against 1,407,- 950 bu last year. Shipments were 1,379,- 300 bu, against 1,340,371 bu last year. Chicago received this week 2,434,000 bu, against 2,098,500 bu last year; shipped 773,900 bu, against 2,014,654 bu last year. St. Louis receipts continue under a year ago, but this is explained by the State crop report as caused by a late harvest, only 2% per cent of the crop having been threshed on Aug. 1, against 60 per cent a year ago. The weather also being rather unfavorable for the movement. St. Louis received 1,014,927 bu this week, against 1,394,245 bu last year. Minneapolis cars of wheat for the week totaled 1523, against 308 last year. Duluth had 467 cars, against 94 last year. Winnipeg received 474 cars, against 147 last year. Total primary receipts of wheat for the week were 8,675,897 bu, against 5,888, - 841 bu Isst year; shipments totaled 3,448,434 bu, against 3,826,000 bu last year. Supplies Increasing.

The European wheat visible this week decreased 2,532,000 bu. against an increase last week of 2,300,000 bu. and a decrease last year of 3,- 700,000 bu. Cornm Is Steady. Because of the Gevernment report in- dicating. a big shortage of hay, the corn market showed firmness, despite the general rain in douth sections of the belt. The Federal crop report was considered bullish, as it cut down the estimate about 22,000,000 bu, although the increased acreage of 5,312,000, as in- dicated by the Government on July 1, should increase the yield about 80,000,000 bu over last year, when the total was 2,772,000,000 bu. Again, the weather since the report was issued has relieved the drouth in all sections, which should add material- ly to the ultimate outcome. Oats were steady to higher on an im- proved cash inquiry. The Government report indicates a record yield of 1,009,- 000,000 bu. Cash markets moved largely in sym- pathy with futures, offerings increas- ing on the bulges and subsiding on the breaks. Quote wheat: No. 2 red at $1.04@106% (seed wheat at $1.07%@1.08). No. 3 red at 9644c@$1.02 (mainly 98c@$1). No. 4 red at 90@99c. No.2 hard at $1@1.07, latter Turkey (yellow $1@1.02%4—dark held higher). No. 3 hard, quote at 987@98c nominal.

I came here three years ago with practically nothing and I am willing to try it another three. I have recently refused $2000 more than I paid for my farm.” That is the statement of a northern farmer who went to “see” East Texas and has been seeing it ever since. It takes but a few days of “seeing” to con- vince any farmer of the great opportunities in: this rich, fertile country, where truck and fruit and staple crops are making for- tunes for farmers. Talk with any of the hundreds of truck and fruit raisers there and you'll find them ALL making profits that seem unbelievable to the farmer who is not accustomed to such fer- tile, low-priced land, long seasons and fine “growing” climate. W. F.. Boyette, for instance, gets $375 per acre from beans and radishes and $500 from tomatoes. J. C. Hinton says: “I can raise celery every month of the year and make four crops.” He seldom gets less than $450 per acre. J. H. Parker sold 1800 crates ' of peaches at 45c, from 5 acres, or $162 per acre. Lon Earle made $1700 NET from . 8 acres of tomatoes. On account of these big profits from truck and fruit a great many of the farmers stick to these lines entirely, but even staple crops produce yields there that seem astonishing to the northern farmer. Corn, oats, wheat, sugar cané, alfalfa, ,cotto@m ow%v., make from 15 to $75 per acre on land that can be ought for $10 to $40 per acre now.

Mode of thé Best Havane Tobacce TILE CIGA —— POLICEMEN: AND. TEACHERS LIKELY 10 GET PENSIONS Constitutional Amendment to Be Voted Upon at November Election.

~ FIREMEN

FOR Fire Fighters Believe They Also Should Figure in Distribution. NOT

Two of the most important consti- tutional amendments to be voted up- on at the November election provide for pensioning school teachers. and policemen in cities of more than 109,- 000 population, or St. Louis and Kan- sas City and St. Joseph. No amendment has been submit- ted to provide for the pensioning of firemen. Many firemen seem to think they would be as much entitled to

pensions as teachers and - policemen. The constitutional amendments re- lating to pensioning policemen and teachers merely confer upon the Leg- | islature the authority to delegate to cities of more than 100,000 inhab- tants the right to pension such pub- lic servants. The amendment does not attempt, and could not, fix the amount of pensions to be drawn by those who have grown old or become disabled in the service. Only When Incapacitated. That would have to be fixed by the communities in which the pensions were allowed. The mere adoption of the amend- ments do not carry with them any expense upon the tax-payers. The amendments specify that no part of the general revenue fund of the State is to be used for pensioning either teachers or policemen, but that the money must come out of the treas- ury of the school districts and cities granting the pensions. The amendment relating to teach- ers provides that teachers who have become mentally or physically in- capacitated for further service shal! be entitled to nensions in such dis- tricts as adopt the pension system. Policemen who have been disabled in the service, or incapacitated, shall be entitled to pensions during the period of their disability or incapac- ity only. Firemen Have Own Fund. No pension system could be estab- lished in any city, either for teach- ers or policemen, if the amendments both passed, unless the legislature conferred that power on the city in- terested. If the legislature, after the amend- ments were adopted, enacted a law giving St. Louis the right to grant the pensions, the Board of Education for the teachers, and the Municipal Assembly for the policemen, could appropriate the money out of school funds and municipal revenue. The firemen have a pension fund which they maintain themselves, somewhat after the fashion of the Police Relief Association. The fire- men themselves, and persons who have received benfits from the de- partment, contribute to the fund. 2114 POUNDS FOR $1.00. Pest Eastern Granulated Sugar.

SCOTCH DREDGE FOR THE CANAL WASHINGTON, Aug 13,—American shipbuilders have found themselves unable to compete with the Scotch yards in building 4 steel ladder dredge for the Panama Canal, and President Taft has authorized the Isthmian Canal Commi8sion to buy the big machine abroad at a price more than 50 per cent less than the only American bid. In an open competition, William Simons & Co. of Renfraw, Scotland, bid to build the machine for $399,340. ‘The Union Iron Works of San Fran- cisco wanted $874,146.

Donovan believes he has Strengthened his club by ‘the acquisition of Pitcher Frank Smith and Inflélder Billy Purtell, formerly of the White Sox.

Hildreth Captures Two Saratoga Stake Events SARATOGA, N. Y., Aug. 13.—There is no hoodoo in No. ‘“13’’ for Sam Hil- dreth. On this the 13th day of the month he won- with Novelty and Dal- matian the two big events at the Sara- toga track, the Saratoga Special and the Travers Stakes, worth net to him $14,575. Besides this sum, there was a gold cup worth $2500. All, this followed closely on the action of the stewards, who fined Hildreth $100 for his complicity with Pat Dunne,

who put in a friendly claim for the horse ‘Montgomery yesterday after that horse had finished second. President R. T. Wilson Jr. and Stew- ard Walter S. Vosburgh had Hildreth before them and questioned him closely regarding the claiming incident. Wil- son, white with rage, catechized Hil- dreth closely on the subject. Hildreth finally admitted the claim was a friend- ly one. Then the stewards fined him and censured Dunne for his part in the matter. Novelty won the Saratoga Special be- cause Shilling was much more alert at the start than Butwell, gaining such an early advantage that he never was caught. Iron Mask, an added starter, also slow to break, tried to catch Noy- elty during the early stages of the race, but failed, and Novelty, although stop- ping at the end, won by @ slight margin of a length. The result of the race was 80 unsatis- factory to R. T. Wilson Jr., the owner of Naushon, that he challenged Hj)- dreth to an open sweepstake of $2500 a side. Hildreth agreed to the conditions, but later the proposed race was de- clared off as the engagements of both colts, the owners found, would prevent a special meeting. Dalmatian proved that he was one of the great racehorses of the dec- ade by carrying 129 pounds to vyic- tory in :ne race for the Travers stakes. Although he was conceding from 8 to 18 pounds to all of his opponents, this great son of Ethel- bert. beat them home by five lengths in a canter. During the early stages of the race he trailed the field ang was at one time a dozen lengths in the rear of Ocean Bound, the pace. maker, The crack filly who at Sheepsheaa Ray had beaten Dalmatian, made the running for seven furlongs. ‘Then Lovetie took up the running and lea into the home stretch. Lovetie quit

badly in the stretch and was beaten home by Barleythorpe and Hampton Court. The race for the Officers Army Service cup nearly resulted in a bad accident to Lieut. W, J. Scott. While riding May Lee on the back stretch at the end of the first half mile of the race, May Lee, who was racing next the rail stumbled and fell. Lieut. Scott failed to rise when the mare jumped to her feet and stable hands had to carry the Lieutenant off the track.

J. Handy last year. Behind this youngster, who never had participated in similar competition be- fore, were Merriam and Husagh, of the Chicago Athletic Association, and Handy, swimming unattached, who won the event last year and was thrice Win- ner of the St. Louis 10-mile race. In seventh place was Michael McDermott of the Central Y. M. C. A., swimming unattached to be eligible, who finished third iast year. This quintette had been ‘picked in advance as the squad to furnish the winner. McGillivray, using a crawl stroke the entire distance, and not changing to obtain a rest, got away well after one false start, in which half the field dived off the pier, and practically led i| throughout the race, although the lead- ers were well bunched to the Rush street Bridge, where the youngster began to ‘pull away from his field. ‘The ultimate winner never was in dis- tress and none of those immediately be- hind him appeared in any danger dur- ing any stage of the journey of ap-

HEDGES LANDS 3 TEXAS LEAGUERS Pitchers Malloy and Mitchell and Outfielder Northen Pur- chased From Houston.

President Hedges of the Browns an- nounced last night that he had pur- crased the releases of Pitchers Malloy and Mitchell and Outfielder Northen from the Houston (Texas League) club. Hedges closed the deal with Owner Doak Roberts of the Houston club, who was in St. Louis yesterday. Both pitchers are right-handers and, according to Hedges, rank with the best twirlers in the Texas League. The Browns’ owner Is especially enthusiastic over having acquired Northen. Roberts saw a good deal of Tris Speaker, the sensational center fielder of the Red Sox of Boston, who is also a product of the Texas League. Accord- ing to Roberts, Northen looks even bet- ter than Speaker did when he grad- uated into the big league. As the Houston club is inthe fight for the Texas League pennant, Roberts will not permit: the three players to re- port until after the season is concluded, Sept. 7. They will then be brought on and given a trial by Manager O’Con- no’. BIEL WILL COMPETE JIN MILK FUND MARATHON RACE Irvin Biel, one of the premier long distance runners in the West and win- ner of 22 races ranging from one to ten miles, announced Saturday that he would be a starter in the second mara- thon run given Aug. 18, under the aus- pices of the Million Population Club, for the benefit of the Post- Dispatch ure Milk Fund. Beil, who has proven himself to be the mosi consistent per- former in long distance cvents, and also the winner of the first run given by the club this season, asserts he is in the best of condition after his two weeks’ stay at canoeing on the Gasconade and hopes to be a winner of the excellent medal awarded to the first one home. Besides Biel, the pick of the local talent, will without doubt add to «the success of the event by competing In the race, which will be over a six-mile course, from the entrance. of the Mis- sourt Athletic Club to Delmar Garden.

“Big Jack” Blanks Donovanites Whi e

J Jack O’Connor’s brother-in-law was in fine form. He allowed only four seattered hits and passed only two batters. Powell was master of the situation all the way. He pitched his best ball in the eighth inning when with the bases filled, he struck out Tris Speaker, the Red Sox's crack hit- ter. Opposed to Powell was Ed Karger, the former Cardinal southpaw, who is the leading twirler of the American League this season. Karger allowed only three hits but the three safe- ties figured in the scoring of both St. Louis runs. With perfect support the Texas sidewheeler would have repeated Powell’s performance and the ‘g#me would have gone into extra innings. After retiring the Browns in order in the opening inning, Karger. got in bad in the second. Griggs, the first man up, hit a terrific grounder be- tween Speaker and Lewis. It rolled to the fence. Speaker and Wagner hustled the ball in to Purtell at third in time to cut off Art at that bag but the former White Sox dropped the ball dnd the slugger was safe. Schweitzer sent out a lift to Lewis, but Griggs didn’t take a chance with Duffy’s arm and hugged third. Wal- lace bounded a single through Stahl and Griggs tallied. Karger followed by striking out Truesdale and forcing Killefer te roll to Gardner, Powell helped raise the total to two in the third.. He opened the session by hitting a Hine drive to left for a base. Stone laid down a sacrifice and when Kleinow fired the ball over Stahl’s head Powell chased all the way around while Stone pulled up at third before Hooper could recover the ball and return it to the infield.

SNODGRASS is REAL STAR OF BATTING WORLD

Giant Outfielder Is Now on Heels of Ty Cobb and Is Gaining Ground Daily,

H League, with an average of .377. AVING played in 63 games and showing that he is no morning glory, after all, Fred Snodgrass of the Giants can now claim to be the leading batter in the National Snodgrass has been leading the ‘League for some time, but as he played in many less games than all the others near the top he was hardly classed as a leading swatter. Mauy were inclined to think that he was starting out like lots of other recruits, who hit well in the first 20 games or so and then fall by the wayside when the real test is set be- fore him. But Snodgress has shown that he is none of that kind, ang if he should take a big tumble now, as was expected of him right along, he will certainly fool some of the wise New York experts, who predict that he will grab the automobile. Snodgrass came to the Giants as a catcher and sat on the bench nearly all of last year without doing a thing. He is a young Californian. and, anxious to be active, begged Mc- Graw to give him a trial in the out- field. Muggsy played him in sev- eral games and as a result Cy Sey- mour has been relegated to the befich. Six players are above the .300 notch this week but none of them ere Cardinals. Eddie Phelps has been going well egain and tops the locals with .288. Hulswitt follows, and Koney with .271 tops the regu- lars. The majority of the Cardinal lineup is slumping, hovering around the .250 mark. Ty Cobb kept on going last week despite the setback handed his team and he now has a pretty big lead over Larry Lajoie, who found the traveling somewhat harder. Ty has played in 101 games and with 139 hits has made more bingles than any other player in either league. Speaker continues his consistent hitting and as a result is likely to overtake the Cleveland infielder at any stage of the week. This week there are seven players above the .300 mark, one more than the rival organization can boast of. Eddie Collins joined the ranks of the select circle and if he could continue the gait he went in St. Louls he would be giving his old rival Tyrus Cobb quite a healthy argument. None of the Brcewns are doing any hitting worth mentioning. Hoffman continues to lead the. regulars with .256 by virtue of a benching. Griggs has shown about the only gain of any Brown. Wallace and Newnam who were well to the fore the great- er part of the seuson are. hitting .247 and .230 respectively.

= Gans W as Greatest Ring General in Game ———————-

“Old Master” Knew Every Trick of. Fighter's Repertoire—Late Hours Rather Than Hard Training Caused Downfall.

————— BY ED. W. SMITH. The “old master” is dead. With him has passed the colored fighters’ guide book to boxing. Joe Gans did much for his fellow colored man who aspired to shine in he prize ring. He taught them, by example,. most all that any of them ever knew of the fighting business. Gans was the master. of all that pertained to greatness in the prize ring. Like a great baseball pitcher he “had everything!” There wasn't a trick that he didn’t know and couldn’t work. There wasn’t a single fine point of the Queensberry code which this once. wonderful colored man hadn’t improved in some manner, An Inveterate Gambler. Doubtless his constant reduction in weight to a low figure had something to do with his contracting the dread white plague. Probably late hours and all-night sessions at the gaming table had more to do with it. For Joe was a gambler, pure and simple. . De- spite hig native shrewdness and his seeming cunning in other ways he never could get the notion out of his head that he could beat the various gambling devices, especially the “bones.” But while he was boxing—and his career went from 1891 to 1907—he in- vented more great “stuff for others to copy than perhaps any other fight- er, black or white. If you are familiar at all with the methods of the present day colored fighters you may have taken note of the fact that almost all of them box with the left arm well extended and the glove open. Note, too, that Jack Johnson boxes in this fashion. Fooled Many a Man. Gans probably was the first man to introduce that style. He kept the open glove waving tantalizingly in front of an_ opponent’s face.

' __More

than one good fighter was badly rat- tled by this method of combat, the left being always a blind for the ter- rific right that Gans could slam in at such short range and with such dead- ly effect. This’ system of fighting was ex- tensively copied by all of the col- ored fighters, and traces—marked in a good many cases—are to be noted today in the ring work of such men as Jack Johnson, Sam McVey, Joe Jeannette and others, big and little. The late George Dixon, who began his career before Gans started his, also was an inventive genius, but not the master that Gans afterward proved to be. All of the colored fighters of the day are tricky and have their little boxing eccentricities, but most of these are not hard to trace back to the great colored Baltimore idol, the man who always knew his place and endeared himself to everybody he ever met, despite the treacherous management that once made Joe do things that were obnoxious to him. Gans was of the most kindly dis- position of any of the fighters and never felt it too much trouble to go out of his way to show an aspiring fighter just how he worked this punch or that one or effected this hook or that one. In the matter of defence he was greatest of all. His style of blocking and hitting with the same motion and with high skill and force was copied far and wide, but nobody ever per- fected it to the same degree that Gans had it. They talk about Johnson catching the blows like a man catches base- balls—Gans did that 15 years ago, be- fore Johnson was ever heard of out- side of his own family. And he could catch a blow, too, almost before it was started. Truly he master.” was the only one “old

Quast eeee The Harvester, Geers Up, Equals Cresceus’ Record

CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 13.—Another world's record was broken at the Grand circuit races at North Randall Park today. The Harvester, driven by Ed Geers, won the two heats of the 2:06 trot in 2:04% and 2:03%, re- svectively, making the two fastest heats ever trotted in a race by a stal- licn. Incidentally, The Harvester clipped one second off his own rec- ord, equaled the stallion trotting rec- ord made by Cresceus at the Bright- on Beach track in 1902 and set a new mark for 5-year-old trotting stallions in a race, in the second heat. The stallion had such a big lead over Sonoma Girl, Wilkes Heart and Oro that Geers did not extend him on the stretch. Had he done so0 The Harvester would have eclipsed Cres- ceus’ record of 2:02% made against time at Columbus in 1902, which still stands as the stallion trotting rec- ord. The free-for-all pace with four en- tries was easily won by Ross K, fast time being made in both heats. The 2:12 pace developed the fierc- est competition of the week's pro- gram. It took six heats to decide the event. Sunny Jim, the favorite, won the first heat, but Col. Forest took the next two. Thén Peter Pan proved himself the best stayer and took the next three heats in order. The final heat of the 2:17 trot, un- finished from yesterday, developed a pretty fight between Dovell and But- terbrook, each of whom had won two —oooeeee——e———e—e—ee—ee—oeEeoEo—oa— Extra Base Hitting. aed

heats, until the three-quarter pole. when Butterbrook broke and Dovel] won without trouble. Remorseful, winner of the 2:21 trot, the closing event of the meeting, nar. rowly escaped being distanced in the first heat, but came back strong and captured the second and de¢id- ing heat in easy fashion. Acting on instructions from Gov. Harmon, Sheriff A. J. Hirstius and a corps of deputies raided the betting shed shortly after the races began. So far as arrests were concerned the raid was ineffective as the tip had been given and tHe bookies had made a quick disappearance. There were some hundreds of oth. ers, however, who had not been warned and the Sheriff and his dep- uties found them standing patiently in long lines before the betting stands. Each man had a little ticket in his hand and was waiting smiling- ly for: “paying off’ time. Protesting bitterly, they were hust- led out of the shed. A number of these disappointed bettors spent a fruitless evening hunting for the bookies with whom they made their wagers.

CARDINALS GET AN EVEN BREAK WITH PHILLIES

Willis Goes to Harmon’s Rescue in Time in Opener, While Lush Is Qutpitched by Moore.

FTER winning the opening the Phillies this afternoon, PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 13. game of the double-header from 8—4, the Philadelphians downed the Mound City aggregation in the second by a 7—4 tally. In the first game, MeQuillen grew very wild and Ewing was sent to his rescue. ceeded by Willis. In the first contest the Cardinals lost a fine opportunity in the open- ing inning. They filled the bases when Huggins, Ellis and Evans each drew four balls and Mowrey sacri- ficed. A double play on Oakes’ grounder to Donlan choked off runs. With two out in the Phillies’ half, Grant was safe at first on a grounder to Evans. Eddie stole second and came home with the first run of the afternoon when Magee sent a single over second. The second session was a regular merry-go-round for the Cardinals, the visitors scoring six runs. Bresnahan drew a base on balls and stole second before Zacher fanned. Hauser sin- gled to center and took second when Bresnahan beat Bates’ throw to the plate. Passes to Harmon and Hug- gins filled the sacks and caused Ewing to take McQuillan’s place. A double play was in sight when Ellis sent a grounder to Walsh, but the latter fumbled the ball and Hauser scored. Harmon was caught off third, but he scored when Grant muffed Walsh's throw. Huggins took third and Ellis scored on the play and both crossed the plate on Mowrey's single. Mike scooted home when Evans hit for two bases. A single by Oakes ended the rally, as a double play was made on Bresnahan’s grounder to Walsh. Oakes prevented the Phillies from putting’ a big bunch of runs over the plate and they had to be _ content with only a pair. The Quakers filled the stations on a pass to Luderus, Dontan's single, a balk and four balls to Dooin. Ewing's out, Mowrey to Evans, scored Luderus. Oakes robbed Titus of a double by a sensational running catch, Dooin scoring and the fsrier Lush Receives Poor Harmon lasted less than two innings and was suc- Moore outpitched Lush in the second clash. followed up the play by getting Bates’ foul while on the run. The Cardinals pounded out two more runs in the fourth inning on singles by Huggins, Mowrey and Oakes and Evans’ sacrifice fly. Luderus caused the Quakers to creep up a notch in their half by making the circuit following a walk and a two-base drive by Ewing over Ellis’ head. Both teams had good scoring oppor- tunities in the next few innings, but the veteran twirlers tightened and the game ended without any runs being made after the fourth inning.

Final, While Moore Is Effective N the second game Moore started off poorly by giving Huggins a base on balls, but Miller was forced at sec- ond yy Ellis, who stole second and watched Mowrey and Evans strike out. The Phillies should have been blanked, but a muff by Evans resulted in a pair ot runs. Bates drew a pass and Knabe fouled out. Evans than made his error of Lush’s throw on Grant’s grounder. After Lueh fanned Magee, Bransfield cracked a two-bagger to right center and Bates and Grant crossed the plate. The Quakers added another run to their list in the third session. After two men were out, Grant singled to right. On the run and hit play, Ma- gee sent a two-bagger past short and Grant scored. Magee tried to take third on a short passed ball, but Bres- nahan’s throw to Mowrey beat him to the bag. It was not until the fourth inning that the Cardinals got a hit off Moore. Two men were out, though, when Evans sent a single to ieft field and Oakes was an easy out. * The Cardinals gave a poor exhibition in the Phillies’ half of this inning, and the Quakers piled up another bunch of “ons on singles by Bransfield and Doo- Jan, a pass to Dooin, a fielder’s choice by Hauser, when Dooin scored by slid- ing under Bresnahan, and a wild throw by Huggins. Bresnahan started the fifth inning by getting a base on balis, but the next three men were unable to advance him. They fared better in ‘the sixth inning, when tiuggins and Ellis each drew a pass and two outs followed. Oakes beat out a bunt, but Dooin threw wild to first and Huggins scored. A pass to Bresnahan filled the bases, and Zacher Grove Ellis and Oakes home with a sin- gle to center field. The rally ended when Grant pulled down Hauser’s fly. Knabe made the circuit in the seventh inning on a single, Grant's sacrifice and @ wild throw by Evans. Huggins brought home the final tally of the day. He and Ellis both drew four balis, the latter being forced at second by Mow- rey, and Huggins scoring when’ Evans singled to cénter. ———- ae { WUGGINS PULLS THE UNEXPECTED | peas St ES yaAses sean egy neha sl same thing in St. pitched to 10 batsmen and en kena an halle. rave saw that . he decided eo make Fea ee

Quits Rowing Mound City. Crew, With Big Lead After Believing * Race Is Won.

HE crack Mound City four, race today, Coach Wray’s second and Mound City third. A curious race. The Mound City four mistook the mile flag for the finish, at that time being three lengths in the lead. The crew quit rowing, thinking it had the race won before it realized the mistake. The Vespers and Centrals shot past them aad finished way ahead. On form, the Mound City bunch had it all over the other two. Only four out of the seven boats én- tered in the senior four-oared shells event, started—The Arundels of Balti- more, Mound City quartet of St. Louis, the Potomacs and the Central Rowing Club of St. Louis. For the first few hundreds yards the shells were on even terms. . Arundel spurted at the half mile and Mound City clung tenaciously to the Baltimoreans. At the mile flag the Potomacs and Centrals were hopelessly in the rear, and the Arundels were lead- ing the Mound City crew by a good three lengths, winning the race in a rather easy fashion in the good time of 7m. 2s. Of all the sensational finishes the Champlonship senior single sculls was about the very best ever. Mehrhof beat out Fred Shepherd by a second, actual time. The race was scheduled to include Mehrhof, Nassau Boat Club, New York; Shepherd, Harlem Rowing Club: Doran- do Miller, New York Athletic Club, and Gordon of the Vespers, Philadelphia. The last named quit at the half mile mark, leaving only three to fight it out. Mehrhof jumped into an early lead, but Miller and Shepherd fouled each other, and it was mecessary for another start. The second time, the shells got away, Mehrhof again jumped into the lead, with Shepherd pressing him closely. When the mile flag was reached, Dorando Miller was unable to stand’the terrific pace, and stcpped rowing, leaving Shepherd and -Mehrhof to fight it out. The latter was leading at that stage, by a good length, but during the final 200 yards, Shepherd cut loose with a burst of speed that brought him within about a length of his antagonist, with less than 20 yards to go. Inch by inch, the prow of Shep- herd's shell forged ahead, and had the finish line been two yards farther back, he would have won. Mehrhof’s lead was less than a quarter of a boat length, and according to the official time, he won by exactly one second. The real race of the day, the senior eight-oared shells, in which the Po- tomac’s best crew was entered, proved a disappointment to Washingtonians; as the local shell was forced to bring up the rear, after putting up a beau- tiful, lucky race. Ottawa Rowing Club of Canada carried off the first honors, with the Argonauts second. Summaries: Association single sculls, Senior—Won by S. F. Gordon, Vesper Boat Club, Philadel- phia. Time 8m, 89s.

BULL OF 1 Official Pathfinder of High- way Department Starts Monday in Automobile © to Map the Route. - ve 4 as a * ty . eels oon : ; Jointly. the highway department and the Immigration Commission of Mis- sourt have taken up the proposition to build good roads through Missouri as an aid to better populating the rural districts. Instead of talking the mat- ter over for a year or two, as is the usual practice when movements of this kind gfe undertaken, the Missouri au- thorities have taken the bull ,by the horns. Monday a pathfinding car, an Over- land, furnished by the Overland Auto- mobilé Co., will start from the City Hall, speeded on its way by Acting Mayor. Gundlach, en route for Spring- field, Mo. The official pathfinder, so designated by Immigratian Commission- er Curran and Higtrway Commissioner Hil, is-J. E. Foland, a St. Louis news- paper man. He will find a way to Springfield, Mo., which is 239 mileés from St. Louis. The roads are fright- ful at.this time, but Foland will look | for the best of them, and ‘will make a. careful and detailed topographical map. . Wighway to Ozarks. Ine! tally, he will stop at all the oe towns between here and Springfield, and will explain the pjJan to buil@ a great highway down into the Ozarks, He will endeavor to secure the ~@0-operation of the. officials of every/fown and county en route, the plan Being to have each town and vil- lage biild a section of good road in two @frections for itself for, say, a mile of two or three miles. In this way it is believed. that a per- fect roek road can be buflt between St. Lowen, Springfield in a year or less. This certain if the assistance of the farmers along the route can be enlisted. Y Other Roads in View. The .plan has the sanction of Gov. liadiay; and he has expressed a wish to have Foland’s work continued in othert partS of the State, notably in mapping a good line from St. Louis to Kansas City. This will be undertaken as soéh as the Springfield trip is com- nlete Many letters have- been received by Immigration Commissioner Curran and _ Acting, Mayor Gundlach fn answer to their Communications, in which mayors and ther city officers down in the Ozark Section not only promise assist- ance, Hut they go into the matter with an enthusiasm which indicates that the making of good roads in Missouri is only delayed by the lack. of‘a big man who put the work under way. >.

Red Sox Will Train on Pacific Coast in 1911

President John I. Taylor Closes Deal Whereby His Men Will Follow Comiskey’s “Former Itinerary.

The final arrangements were made yesterday for the trip of the Boston Red Sox to the Pacific Coast next spring. ton club and President Tip O’Neill of the Western, League worked over the details for an hour in President O’Neill’s_ offiee in the Fijsher building, and gave’ me the information: that the Boston club would take the trip. Mr. O’Neill spends his winters in California and is well posted on the baseball con- ditions on the coast. O’Neill was the first to recognize that Duffy Lewis had the making of a good ballplayer and coached him after he left the high school team in: Alameda. O’Neill has been working out the itinerary since early this spring and has closed the dates and leases of ball parks from Frisco to Chicago. There will be no attempt. to take all the money in California, but rather to give the Coast and the Western people a chance to see the Red Sox with their best team out for business. The Chicago White Sox made the mistake of-playing as soon as the men reached the Coast, all out of condition after a long winter’s rest in the East, and this preliminary work put the Chi- cago team in poor condition for the hard season to follow. The Boston players will meet at San Francisco March 1 and practice for a week before playing the first game with one of the leading Coast teams. As Boston will have at least six players on the pay roll who will | President John I. Taylor of the Bos- | winter on the Pacific Slope, the Red Sox will be in condition to show form from the first game. They will play a series of games with the clubs at Ios Angeles, Sacramento, San Fran- cisco and Oakland, making midweek trips into the interior of the State. Los Angeles and San Francisco draw tremendous crowds on Saturdays and Sundays and President O'Neill says that Boston will earn good money on the ‘trip. , The team will not start East un- til near April, and will break the Iong ride by playing at Salt Lake, Denver, Omaha and two or.three other minor league cittes. The following California players are now with the Boston Club: Lewis, Hooper, Arellanes, Hall, Moskiman. At least six other players Boston will try out will be on the Coast this win- ter. The California players are de- lighted with the idea of doing their spring work at home and predict a fine business, as the fans on the Coast keep a close tab on the young men sent out to the major leagues. President O'Neil will go over the ground after.the close of the pres- ent season, and will have charge of the proposition until the players reach Frisco for real business in the spring, when Hugh McBreen will take charge and pilot the crew back to. Boston for the opening of.the season. President John I. Taylor will tn all probability spend most of the win- ter in California. T. H. MURNANE.

Brief Bits About Sport.

It is .with great regret that New York oarsmen received the news that Eddie Ten Eyck had resigned as row- ing coach of Wisconsin to go into business. The passing of Ten Eyck from intercollegiate circles removes from the game one of the greatest oarsmen that ever rode in a shell. Do they ever come back? Yes, they do, and there was quite a crowd of New Yorkers on the special train that came back from Philadelphia after the Langford-Kaufmann fiasco, glad to see the white lights once more, ; It has been learned from good au- thority that the International Avia- tion meet, which will be held at Bel- mont Park, will have the largest guaranteed purses as prizes that have has been contributed for the meet. Harry Edwards will try to pull off a big show at the Philadelphia Na- tional League Park next month. He has a bout between Abe Attell and Ad Wolgast in view, and may also put on a contest between two middle- weights. An amazing thing has hapbened at Cincinnati. For the first time in the history of baseball In that burg a player is being lauded for his mis- takes. “Rabbitt’ McMillen, the Nttle shortstop, has made such a hit at Redland that, although he is batting

However, the rusty anvils are soon due to re- ceive the poundings of the knockers and then more gray hairs for Mr. Griffith. Jimmié Kelly has matched his star bantam fighter, Young.

CHANGES T0 COME “IN. PRODUCTION OF AUTOMOBILES Poor Cars Will Drop Out and Business Adjust Itself to Stable, Solid Practices.

R. D. Chapin, president of the Hudson Motor Car Co., makes the following statement: ‘““‘onditions in the automobile business are changing very rapidly, and the time is now at hand when it will be a case of the ‘survival of the fittest.’ Until to- day the pressure has been to manufac- ture enough cars. From now on with many manufacturers it will be to sell enough cars. “T believe, however, that the future of the automobile industry was never more promising than it is today. “Yet the thousands who are now selling au- tomobiles must be prepared for new conditions if they desire to succeed. “Production of cars has increased tremendously. Until this year people took any car that could be delivered promptly—that could be had at a price which suited their pocketbook. “This caused the most rapid growth of any industry in the history of the world. Scarcely a day passed that a new factory was not started. The com- petent and the incompetent both were attracted to the business. “The automobile business is now pass- ing through a condition of stability. This means different manufacturing methods, different sales plans and fewer dealers. “The production will be reduced or rather restricted through a process of elimination. Those manufacturers who have little experience or capital” and those dealers handling unreliable or un- known cars will drop out. The farmers are becoming large motor car buyers, and next season will probably absorb 60 per cent of all the cars produced. I believe also that the medium price class of motor cars will make the biggest ap- peal to_the American public from now on. “I am often asked by dealers hand- ling other lines fhan the Hudson for advice—what lines to tie up with. I tell them to affillate themselves only with a car built by men who know how—that is built along the right lines with the right’ quality—that is salcable in itself in every respect and is backed by a vigorous sales cam- paign that enables’ discriminating buyers to Know these things and causes them to choose such a car. “In a word or two I might say that the future offers a golden. opportun- ity to real automobile salesmen—men who have selling ability. Pre been far too,few of such kind in the automobile ‘industry fn the past. The coming age of the automobile in- dustry js to be one in which modern and aggressive salesmanship will score heavily. “Every manufacturer -that expects } toa.stay in the game is now laying his campaign. with an idea of per- manancy. Heretofore there have been too many changes every year. This will put the automobile bu®Mess on a broad business basis and will result, I believe, in a more healthy condi- tion. I believe the future offers rosy opportunities to the automobile man- ufacturer—and more particularly to the local dealers who are gifted with sales ability, always remember that back of all this, too, must be a sery- ice organization to take good care of the individual owner.”

Brew- ster, the owner, never had as suc- cessful a season as this, and he is being congratulated on all sides. Second Baseman Eddie Collins of the Philadelphia Athletics is ambitious to steal 8 bases this year. His total in 1909 was 67. The United Hunts, which will hold a fall meeting at Pimlico (Baltimore) race track, on Sept. 1, 3 and 6, has every prospect of the best success in its ca- ree?. | The ‘sixth annual Hell ,Gate \(N. Y.) swim, under the auspices of the Harlem division of the United States Volunteer Life Saving Corps, is scheduled for Sun- day, Aug. 21. Ex-Middleweight Boxing Champion Tommy Ryan has made another match for Con O’Kely, his big heavyweight protege. After his contest with Wil- liams at Syracuse, Aug. 15, O’Kelly will go to Watertown, N. Y., where he meets Billy Edwards in a six-round bout on Sept. 138. “Big Bill’ Caldwell, the former Jay- hawker football star, who will coach the Haskell Indian squad this year, has written Coach Bert Kennedy suggesting that the red men and Kansas elevens play four games of football before the season starts, in order to give the new rules a practical test. Jack Gardner, who was beaten for the world’s professional § sculling championship on the course’in 1901, by George Townes, of Australia, af. ter holding it since 1886 still resides at Kenora and there keeps the tour- ists hotel where the majority of the crews stayed at the recent regatta. The course on the Lake of the Woods is one of the best in the West and it is doubtful if there is another such

‘course in all Canea.

Entries for the motor races are reaching the speed-" way managément in such quantities as to indicate that it will be thé most im- portant series of events given there, and, now that many of the more cour- ageous drivers are familiar with the brick track, a familiarity gained at for- | mer meets, some sensational records are anticipated. | It is expected that a number of the daring foreign drivers will drive famous European racing machines in the Sep- tember meet. The foreigners, coming from France, Germany, Italy and En- gland, will participate in the Eastern races later in the fall, and they have indicated a desire to reach America in time to enter the Indianapolis contests. The program for the two days includes 20 races for which money prizes and trophies worth $10,000 are offered. The speedway management is anxious to give its track first place as a mile rec- ord holder, and to induce the drivers to make an earnest effort to cut down the time on this course below the present point of 35.63, special inducements are offered for mile trials on Sept. 3. If a fraction is shaved off the present rec- ord the driver who does it will receive $200. If the mark ia lowered one sec- ond, he will receive 8300, and $500 will be given for a reduction of two seconds. HATHAWAY DISTRICT MANAGER W.-S. Hathaway, who for the past three years has been district sales manager of the Maxwell-Briscoe Mo- tor Company; has been appointed gen- eral supervisor of all branch houses for the Western district of the Unit- ed States Motor Company.

Miller was bruised, a spring was bent and a lamp broken, but the motor of the little car did not stop. It was extricated with con- siderable difficulty . Lp. — Bachelors Cricket Team Wins.

But whoever chooses to come will be a welcome guest. | It would be impossible in the nature of things for every man who makes anything that has conduced to the progress of St. Louis manufactures and commerce to exhibit all the processes he uses in producing his goods. If he were to attempt it not twenty Coliseums would be large enough. To show all the processes of a single industry, from the crude material to the finished product, would overtax the great building. As it is, enough will be shown of the varied manufactures of St. Louis to send the observer away with a new wonder at the great extent of our products in all that makes for comfort and luxury. There is something for the ordinary human mind to wonder at in the artful complexity of the machines that work away with such canny intelligence and unwearying diligence that they shame the half-hearte” work of mere human kind. But, after all, it is only human intelligence at work in the soul of the machine. | There is fascination in watching even the commonest pieces of machinery that stubbornly eits or stamps or molds or hammers insensate wood or metal or leather or cloth into something useful with a tithe of the effort and none of the fatigue that would fall to human hands. i . But it is the very vastness of the manufacturing strength of St. Louis that will carry the visitor to the Coli- seum along on a wave of enthusiasm. Few of us who live our hum-drum lives at home in St. Louis, using our sare 01 the good things made in St. Louis; know really .hat a producing center this is. There is nothing that a mortal need for his comfort or pleasure, from a pretzel to a motor car, that is not made, and well made, in St. Louis. If an impregnable and unscalable wall were to be built around St. Louis in a night so that nothing of foreign manufacture could come in, still she e tld supply herself with everything she needs, if she had the raw material, for as long as the wall kept from falling. : It is the broad extent of our manufactures that is wonderful to the citizen who knows that he lives in a great city and yet ha. not found out' all that citizenship in St. Louis stands for. One by one he learns of them in the daily course of his life as they are thrust upon him or he runs aeross them. Wit During the ‘Made in St. Louis Week’’ at the Coliseum he will see them en masse, and will be surprised to know that there is nothing he ean possi- 4. Mly ned in life that is not manufactured in his own city. a, "a He will find out for the first time that St. Louis is not only famous for producing more shoes or more beer than any other -ity in the country. He », will be shown that St. Louis in a hundred and one products easily leads the country. Pees All the knowledge that goes into these many things will be laid before him for his inspection, so that at a glance he can see what has taken other men a lifetime of work and an ocean of money to conceive and perfect. The elevation of the understanding is as keen a pleasure to a modern American as warfare was to his savage forefather. That is what makes us the greatest exhibitors on earth. We dearly love an exhibition, and we make them better and oftener than any other race on earth. some The development of the understanding cannot be enhanced better than seeing the processes by which the common and useless is changed into the un- common and valuable; which changes the materials worth thousands into goods worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. | Eo This is the modern miracle of manufacture. Hardly anything is so worth while watching and understanding. How the other fellow does it not only inspires a respect for his trade, but tends to make one sure that his own is worth while, and breeds a desire to show the other fellow what he ean do. The modern way, the St. Louis way, is the best, because it is the highest, development to which ‘the best brains have brought processes. Tomorrow. probably they will be better, for nothing stands still, but the best that now exists will be seen ‘‘Made in St. Louis Week”’ at the Coliseum. _. oe ge ? s . '‘ . : >. : ? 4 Aad

BY A. D. BROWN. The development of the shoe industry of St. Louis in recent years has brought the city to a point where it may justly bé termed the ghoe capital of the world, Theré is a réason. for,this. It Hes th the fact that mest of the St. Louis shoé houses own and operate their own factories. This is the broad. general reason, but there are others almost equally impor- tant. Through the possession and op- eration’ of their own factories the 8t.- Louis shoe houses have developed wha’ I term “ong lines,” that is, complete lines of every style. grade and mate- rial, and most of thesé “long lines” aro subdivided into specialty lines, enabling the retailer to purchasé a complete stock from one house—a stock that will enable him to meet evéry possible de- mand that may come to him from his customers. . In addition, of these “long through the development lines,” the St. Louis shoe manufacturers have put them- selves in a position to supply urgent wants quickly from the made-up stocks always on hand. Indeed, it is a com- mon practice of the present day to ship what are known as “fill in’’ orders, the same day the order is received. Ths factor in the upbuilding of an industry is, perhaps, moré appreciated by ths retail dealer than anyoné else, for it enables. him to réducé very materially his capital investment, through the as- surance that he can fill in any 8Ssizv, style or grade without the neressity of waiting for the desired shoes to make their way throveh the factory—fre- quently & period of three to for weeks. The growth of the St. Louis shoe in- dustry, though it has been going on for almost a half century, has made its greatest progress in thé last decade, for in that time the afinua! total has more than doubled. In the last quartér century it has increased about twenty times. My own recollection of dates back to the year 1872, when I first entered the shoe business in St. Louis. In those days it was St. Louis against the entiré field. I may be pardoned, perhaps, for saying that it was the Hatmillton-Brown Shoe Co. against the fleld, for fron that very time I be- gan the fight for a Wéstern fFhoe and a Western market. The early days of the struggle were interesting, but there was always a gain to record from one year toethe next, The value of St. Louis as a strategic point in the shoe manufac- turing and jobbing business began to make itself felt and the strength of the St. Louls position is now so far ad- vanced that today St. Louis is manu- facturing by far the greater pérréntage of the shoes that are sold i» the St. Louis market. The jobbing of shoes manufactured elsewhere has decreased as the manufacturing business has grown, until there are, rélatively speak- ing, very few shoes wholesaled in B8t. Louis that are not manufactured by St. Louls houses in St. Louis factories, or in nearby towns [{n factories tihder St. Louis ownership. During the time that the growth of the St. Louls shoe market has been going on I have not only been an in- terested observer, but an active partic- ipant. Of the 14 firms now manufactur- ing shoes in St. Louis, no less than their principa)- from two to three men who gainad their training and expérience ih the shoe business with the Hamilton-Brown Shoe Co It has béen & source of much pleasure to me that these men, and, indeed, all the other shoe houses of the city, have helped to build up the industry in. 8t. Louls by the maihte- nance of the same principles which were inaugurated with the establishment of my own company. These principles have been the sale of goods for cash —the trade understands that as 30 days: the maintenance of adequaté stocks from which to fill orders, and, above everything else, keeping the quality up, Pethaps no one in the shoe business has been mere insistent than f upon the matter of keeping thé quality up, and I am corscious in these days of the success of the St. Louls shoe market of the correctness of the principle upon which I havé conducted my own busi- ness, and which I have endeavored to inétil into those who have been associ- ated with me in the past and at the present time. In the earlier days of the development of the St. Loulg shoe market there were many who contended that it would be an impossibility to build up a.large trade upon a cash basis. Tf believed and insisted otherwise, and I am satisfied. that time has Gemonstrated the correct- ness of my views. Today the shoe busi- ness of St. Louls is upon the safest foundation of any city in the country, and today St. Louis is, as I have al- réady said, the shoe capital of the world, made so by the determined sup- port of the three principles of pusi- he#s Which I havé mMéntioned. The records of recent years have been especially interesting in the light of the fact that the manufacturing end of the business has Shown a steddy increase éven in the days of the financial aita- culties of 1907. Though there was, foi- lowing that year, @ slight loss in the total of busienss Gone, there was a gain in the number of pairs manufactiires and their value, and the loss in gérieral was passed, too, in 1909. the year 19—the last complete twelve-month which can be utilized for statistical purposes, there was .manu- the industry

The total shoe trade for the year was $87,- 410,306.86, Which emphasizes my state- ment that the bulk of the St. Louis shoe tradé is in St. Loui made shoes. These figurés G6 not include the rubbers han- died by, 6F tiade for St. Louis houses; & Wné WHIEK ts allied with the shoe business Very fiaturally.

Thé@se Aaré Fernarkable figures when it is recited that % years ago the total manufacture’ Of St. Louis houses ee lees than two miinons of dol- t® per year. Exceptionally mteresting, too, is the fact that the average cust of the shoes mahufactured by St. Louis houses hes increased With the growth of thé @&- gregate. For nearly the whole period of the St. Louls shos business up to about five years’ ago, though the @qual- ity was kept u>, there was no material increase in the average value of 4 pair of St. Gouls made shoés. In thé past five years this average has grown from about $1.48% per pair to $1.77, indicatlis that not only has St. Louis gained As & market. but that -the principles which have developed that market have also induced a demand for a highet grade of shoes. Moreover, there has developed during tho same time, & very decided increase in the quantity of high grade shoes manufactured heré. The time Was when there were no shoes manufactured in St. Louls which could ybe retailed at $5.00, $6.00 or $7.00 pér pal. That day has passed and St. Louis is a& Well equipped today to turn ott shoes of these grades as any other manufacturing center in the United States. In the women’s and children’s lines there ts also a. steadily increas- ing volume of the finer styles and high- er priced shoes. ‘This aS’ béen the result of natural progress. It has been the history of shoe tianufacture, as in othér lines of industry, that first efforts afe ditect®d toward the medium and low-pricéd grades of goods. of workmanship and experiénce grow. the better grades comé into play until in St. Louis at the present timé there are made shoes of as high a grade ati.i of aS pérfect a style &8 can be found anywhere in the world. The dev- opment of thé manufacture has brveagnt with it the development of the *40e Workers, whose skill is unsur- passed anywhere, and these shoe work- ers command wages the equal of any of their trade. Our company § alone emplovs 6800 shoe Workers, With a week- ly pavrol!l of $60,000. During recert years thé annual payrolls of all the St. Louis shoe manufactories have growr heyond 87.900,000, and, includitie the fae- teries opérated by St. Louis firms th nearby towns, the annual parro'le to shoe workers will aggregate more than $16,000,000, which is almost double the amount paid in wages by any otheF ih- dustry of the city. With an Pastern distributing hsiise at Boston, our compahy is séiiing made- in-St. Louis shoes in @very eorner 6f New England, and, while the &t. L6ula shoe industry has been receiving céHsid: eration as a part of the internal growth of the city, it must not be forgotten that this same industry has spréad the reputation of the city, not only through- out the United States and foreign toun- tries, but to the uttermost @énds of the earth St. Louls shoes are known. The force of nearly one thousand salesiien representing St. Louif flttns has car- ried abroad not only thé Quality of the shoes produced here, but the famé of the city also. Every state and territory is covered in a thorough manner, and the fact that quality has been maiti- tained by St. Louis manwfacturers is as well known wherever St. Louis shoes aré sold a8 it is in the factories where they are made. The reputations of the firms which have éfgaged in thé busi- ness have had their share in the devel- opment of the standing which the city has gained, and herein lies another {m- portant factor in the growth of St. Louis to the proud position of the shoe capital of the world. I have dwelt to some extent wupot the fact‘ that St. Louis is réally the leading shoe manufacturing city of the United States. It is unfortunate that in other shoe manufacturing centers statistics do not sépdarate the products of manufacturers from ‘the handlings of jobbers, Other cities have been con- tent to rest their claims upoh the gross amount of business transacted, regard- less of the source of manufacture. Such figiires as are Available, therefore, pé- mit only of estimates, but I am safely within conservative borders when 1 make the statement that 8t. Louis man- ufacturers distribute directly to reta!. dealers approximately twice as manv shoes of their own manufacturé a’ Ac the actual manufacturers of any other shoe manufacturing city of the United States, while the total trade is itsel: in Mne with St. Louis’ claims for geti- eral pre-eminence in the industry. In the manufacture of the general or ‘long’ lines to which I have referred St, Louis. firms adopted a course which has been of essential importance in the development of that policy to Which it has been my custom to refer to as “Concentration.” Operating numerous factories under a sing’e managemént, it lias been possible to ééncenhtrate in each #ingle factory, thé production of specific branches of the general lines thus ih effect specializing dor concentrating on one broad branch of manufacture. This: has led to a dégrée of perfection in thaking, tO &n é6coromy of manufac- turé, té An Aecbhtuation of st¥te whieh which be possible in ne other manner.

_ Allied Lines Total Other Mii- lions With Money Distrib- uted in Many Channels. .

Tast vear the value of the shipments of dry goods from St. Louis increased 10 per cent over the year before.. The sales for the year were reported af $70,000,000. On the basis of last year and of 1907, the average sales from 1910 may rise from $75,000,000 to $100,000,000 a year, out of which the city ought to supply at ‘ Jeast & fourth as its own manufactured product. The dry goods business alone, on its 1919 basis, might easily support a city of on returns of $70,000,000. That amount of money in the business of a single line reaches into all other lines. 100,000 Where St, Louls Business Began. Thig was the original base of business St. Louls began on. It was always the base of the country store, which divided itself into ‘‘departments,” with shelves for the dry goods and the groceries and the “‘wet goods’’ in the back room. Since 1900 this original method of the backwoods has been modernized. Every town now has its department stores, doing on a small scale what is done on an immense scale in the great depart- ment stores of St. Louls, where it has been said that everything is sold from @ paper of pins “up to” a locomotive. | They stop on reaching “up to’’ the locomotive. They do not keep them as shelf stock in St. Louls department stores this year, but no doubt they will cheerfylly send out and buy either a locomotive or an automobile for any regular customer who happens to item- ize it among other things in his order. As the same methods are imitated in a smaller way in towns which order from S8t. Louis, manufacturing in the city accommodates itself to these hab- its. In the @ry goods review for St. Louls it is said that ‘‘a vast territory to the south, southwest, west, northwest and southeast is supplied from St. Louts with such goods as come under the heading of dry goods and kindred lines. “As a manufacturing center for nu- merous specialties which are a big item in the Wholesaling of dry goods, etc.. St. Louis is yearly showing a marked and general improvement; a large number of factories are located here Which turn out many thousands of dozens of such articles as hose, un- derwear, shirts, drawers, pajamas, skirts, petticoats, neckwear, suspenders, garters and the \Ilike, which carry brands sold only through St. Louis interests.”’ Millinery, 87,000,000; Gloves, $5,000,000 To the total of $70,000,000 in dry goods. millinery adds $7,000,000 as the annual value reported for its own and its allied lines. Hats and gloves report $5,000,000, with the city as a manufacturing cen- ter for derbies, helmets, caps, opera and sijk hats, as well as for “cowboy speciaities.’’ . It mé@nufactures an increasing per- centage of tife gloves it sells, shipping hats and gloves to the South Atlantic States and northwest into British Co lumbia. its exports £0 to Merico. South America. Cuba and the West Indies on the south, and ft has Asiatic demand for its goods of this class. In the outside department stores, which buy from St. Louis, clothing tg a leading dry goods feature. The St Louis supply for this demand is valued at $13,000,000 annually. The city is a center for manefacturing cloaks and}: sults for women and children, and “half a score of factories are now \o- eated here.’’ W'en a “factory” is mentioned, the idea of the capital attached to it is from $100,000 up. In the manufacture of elothing and of many specialties ua- der the genera! heading of dry goods, it is eaw to start with very much Tess. Some begin manufacturing « speécialty in two or three rented rooms. with rented power to run a few machines. They may appear later tn factory build- ings of thelr own, At the last Missouri report, the city had 48 “establishments” making men's elothing, valued at $11,179,000 a yedr. The output ef women’s clothing was repor:- ments. The total for clothing, men's and women’s, is $15,714,000 a year, with 2846 men and 4046 women employed in men’s clothing. In women’s clothing, 1950 women and 79 men are at work. The an- nual wages in the clothing industry are $4,290,000 in a year below the aver, age. With $5,000,000, estimated, as the total wages paid in 1910, the greater part of it will go to women werkers, of whom between 6900 and 7000 are em- ployed. Turning Skill Into Millions. A feature of the clothing inqdustry is that skill turns materials whose value ia reported at $7,765,000 into val- ues of over $15,000,000 at the “factory door. In hats and caps, materials worth $345,000 are turned into finished ed. $4,535,000 a year from 65. establish-}

ture of St. Louis furs, $456,790 in the | raw materials, becomes $900,471 in the finished -goods. In hair goods, $24.90 In raw materials, values ape raised vy manufacture to $61.70, but this Output is not yet count- ing in the hum@rea thousands. Jewel- ry-making raises $1.85 in material to $4.29. After ladies have been outfitted with eldthing, including cloaks, under- wear, millinery and gloves, all made tn St. Louis, the city supplies them with furs, hairgoods and jewelry up to & combined total of $1,400,000 a year. If,all the small specialties which #0 under the general heading of dry goods and allied lifes could be followed to the factory, there would be a number of surprises. It is in the smal] spe- clalty. that a great fortune may be made more suddenly than in almost anything, if thé specialist “happens to strike it.” Some little “fixine’”’ the statisticians do not notice at all may capture the market with a run which will put the man who began i!n a rented room into a factory of his own with his wife In diamonds and her own auto, before the statistics of the business are collected. The only drawback on this methcd of becoming a million- faire suddenly is the difficulty of fnd- ing what specialt® will strike the market, added to the certainty that as soon as it does strike, there will be The specialty may be pe making it all over the country. Other patents are got out on something like, it, Others break in, regardless of patents, hoping that the “clean | up” will pay profits above the ex- penses of all lawsuits. While St. Louis itself has suppiled no famous romance of this kind, other cities have done to very lately. The great painter, Sir Joshua Reynolds, tried to prove that quickness and skill in imitation is the real secret of genius. The way successful spe- claities are stolen shows genius of its kind. Because of this, and for other rea- sons, when St. Louls capital fn large amounts goes into new factories, it ts ssually in lines on which returns can be calculated as ‘steady with offictal figures to show results from 10 years to 560 years back. These now cover everything except “modern specialties.”” They do it so ‘horoughly that in manufacturing the staples of dry goods and everything else werything except the “personal equa- Hon” can be figured out in advance. fhe mathematics of staple business hows averages which will hold for five- ear and ten-year periods, with margins ‘or increases, made certain by increases xf demand from population which can

TRADE RAPIDLY |

The canning business tn fruits and vegetables reached $54,900,000 a year five years ago, and in the west and “outh it has probably doubled since. When St. Louls handles more and more of this product for the smaller fuwns, the money they get out of it comes back in buying other goods made in St. Louis. It is one of the best features of recent years in results which make city living more comfortable all the year -around. Besides foods, cereals -and baking products, otherwise classed, Si.

The total! capital for the whole State was $981,975 in 1900, and for St. Louts alone $1,607,981 in 1905. In electrical ap- paraius. the State report gives the num- ber emploved as 1928 and the wages paid as $418,000 in 198, with a product of $1,638.116 under this heading. Reports to the Merchants’ Exchange put tne annua! tota: of the city’s business in electrical supplies now at $12,000,000. This includes the city’s own manufactures in the total marketed. St. Louis firms ship electrical goods to Mexico and South America, as well as to the surrounding states. The manufacture of electrical lamps is one of the lines in which the business is growing. The total number is report- ed as “‘many millions.”’ of other smal! articles now growing the same way. Wireless telegraphy alone has made a new market for scores of different arti- cles never marketed or heard of until iately. The business done with students and amateurs in “wireless work’ now has factories supplying it in nearly all the North Central and Eastern States. {ts goods are so well advertised that tirvose who “read up” on electricity may get an idea that everybody is catching a wireless craze. This is a minor item in the business. at takes a great many of these minor items to show the reach of tlie industry as a whole.. Thomas Commerford Mar- tin. who is the ‘special Electrical Ex- pert’ of the United States Government, took up electric fans and found $1,168,000 at work running them. That amount of money was represent- ed in motors of 30,796 horsepower. used in running the fans. This was an in- crease from 12,766 horsepower in five years. This year probably not less than 70,000 horsepower is at work fanning down the summer temperature in Amer- ican cities. - Intercurbans Increase the Demand, The total electric horsepower supplied for all purposes by electric motors of all kinds in 1910 may Safely be set down as over 1,000,000. It was 615,000 in 1900, and it had tncreased to 672,910 in five years. Since then the demand from interur- ban railrbads and for miscellaneous pur- poses has increased greatly. There has been an increase, steady but slower, in electric elevators, while the increase in horsepower for “‘miscellaneous purposes’”’ was at the rate of about 100 per cent every two years at last reports. The 11.392 electric horsepower used for general purposes in 1990 may show ten old increase in 1910 for the country at large. In St. Louis it has been great beyond any reports that have been made of it. From the motor which runs a fan, motors rnange up to a titanic capacity of from 2000 to 6000 horsepower. What this means is_ illustrated when it-is reported that two motors of only 200 horsepower each drive a subway train at 45 miles an hour ™lectric locomotives are rated = as high as 2200 horsepower. German stee] makers report a single motor f 10,000 horsepower. This shows what the heavy busi- ness employing electricity is reach- ing for now in this country and Fue rope. Some of Its Varied Uses. Electricity fries buckwheat cakes and makes steel rails on the same sclentific principles. It heats flat- irons in the laundry and moves freight and passengers, changing anly the methods of applying its “horsepower.” We eat with it, hear with it at long distance, ane m»v with it. As it is applied in frn- ning the apparatus of the talking machines and picture shows, we taik with it and see with it. All this calls for “supplies” before coming to the immense business now done in electric lighting, and to the uses made in medicine of such things as the X-ray machine and the electric

The total value reported last year was $3,500,090. The city also makes freight cars by the thousand” for railway use, and turns out passenger coaches of the highest finish. The annual value of the car construction and steel frame production for st2:am roads is reported at $10,000,000, mak- ing the total for steam and electric cars $13,500,000. On the census report of 1905, the city turned out $9,700,000 in cars, in- cluding $1,724,000 itemized as “cars and general shop construction and re- pairs.”” The total product for one year nearly doubled the total cap- ital invested, which is a remarkable showing for St. Louis or any other city, in that line or any other. The Missouri report gives the total of 1908 for “car works” in St.’ Louis at $9.154,009 in value of the product. The business calls for the highest skill both of the woodworker and the metal worker. After this, the electric car calls for workers who put high science into work- ing order. A completed electric car has reached into many states for its ma- terials. Its supply of hardwoods and of metal products is in reach of its St Louis base by both water and rai] ane the industry raises its raw materiais high in the values of its finished woois. Intelligence means a greater part cf the value in the products of this busi- ness and the business grows with the increase of intelligence shown in the rate at which the United States are heing ‘‘electrifiea.’’ The demand for more steam railroad cars, both passenger and freight, keeps steadily in advance of the supply. The demand for freight cars in the last decade was not nearly as great as it will be in the next ten years, but it broke all records and astonished those who thought they knew all about the business of supplying it. Fature of Electric Roads. With long distance electric traction now crossing the Mississippi at St. Louis it will not stop until it reaches the Rio Grande and the Pacific. It grows as the telepnone systems have been grow- ing. Local systems connect from town to town and from county to county un- til they begin connecting from State to State. As St. Louls is now connected across Tinois, Indiana and Ohio by this growth, the connection, extending eas to the Altantic, now will grow toward. the Pacific from St. Louls in the sam TURBINE GENERATOR Floor space, 15 feet diameter.

The Union Electric brigade may be de- scribed as consisting of a staff of two regiments, of & troop, of light and heavy artillery, of ambulance corps, of signal corps, of commissary and quartermaster trains. The two regiments are the large bodies of men. One of them is the com- mercial regiment; the other is the oper- ating regiment. The scouts’ company, the clerks of the ‘‘New Business’’ and the commercial engineers belong to the commercial regiment. Now comes into the field a company of the operating regiment. The details have been worked out on paper. The customer signs a contract. Orders bring forward the first company of the operating regi- ment. This is the installation company. There are meters to be put in, lamps to be attached and other work to be done until the interior is electrically furnished according to contract. The installation company is composed of twenty five men and its equipment includes an automobile and eight wagons. Other companies of the operating regi- ment are in action, Here is the overhead lines company of sixty men with six auto- mobiles and twelve wagons setting poles, stringing Wires and making connections between poles and buildings—a work that goes on with this force the year round. The Union Electric brigade must do more than hold its ground. It advances. If one year does not show an extension of field work, an expansion of operation greater than the normal growth of the city, a council of War which meets in the board room makes a noise. Hence it is that the construction or improvement battalion, 200 men strong, is kept actively engaged on construction work to improve and increase the efficiency of the gener- ating plants. This is work on the coast defenses, so to speak. These are the men behind the big guns. The big guns of the Union Electric are the turbines. The improvement battalion constructs and improves according to plans on which an engineering corps of_twenty-five men is kept busy at headquarters designing and drawing. It is an important part of the operating regiment. There is always something doing at the headtonarters at Tenth and St. Charles streets. Machines whirl by day and lights blaze by night. Behind tables are demon- strators to.show what electricity does and that means more than 200 distinct uses. The ground floor of the Union Electrie headquarters is a daily electrical expost- tion. Each one of these 200 devices is connected with current and the actual operation of it is illustrated te the vis- itor. The ten men who do the ee belong to the commercial regiment. J outside of the doors of the headquarters stand three electric automobiles. They are there all day except when conveyi heads of the severa] de ments on baat ness tO various parts of the field of oper- ation, In the adjutant’s office at head is done the accounting. There the muster rolls are kept. There the claims are looked after. There the collections are

It is the ‘‘trouble de partment’’ and its hours are twenty-four of every day, with no half holidays, no Sundays off and no vacations. ith. three automobiles and one wagon to carry them and their repair outfits, the twenty- three men are on duty to answer all re- ports of trouble. They are s€attered throughout the city wherever wires run and current goes. They mend wires; they doctor transformers; they extend first aid to a great variety of electrical injuries. As svon as one of these trouble men has finished a job of repair work, he telephones headquarters and gets his next order. Every fire alarm is sounded in the Union Electric headquarters. Te the scene of every fire is sent at least one member of this ‘‘trouble platoon,’’ Every half hour the trouble man must ‘phone headquarters and report where he is and what he is doing. Akin in its work to the ambulance corps or the trouble company is the motor repair force. Ordinary electrical trouble can be remedied on the spot, but a motor disabled is more of a problem. It often means a h run to the scene, the removal of the afflicted machine, the loan of a good motor until the other one can be taken to the shop, overhauled and repaired. This motor repair duty calls for sixtv-five men, whose movements are expedited by a train of electric trucks and wagons. The policy of headquarters in the loaning of motors is very liberal. Motors on the premises of consumers are it- spected without cost to them. To look after the 27,000 meters through which the various kinds and qualities of current are served by the Union Elec- tric, is required a company of 110 men, This meter department has delivery wag- ons driven by electricity, storm buggies and other vehicles. These meter men test, inspect, repair and change meters, and they are expected to do it in such a manner as not to ruffle the most sensi- tive consumer. For example: It is the policy at headquarters to politely invite the consumer to read his own meter, for any reason the meter man has failed to obtain access to the building. The consumer will receive a prepaid post card on which are placed the dials of the, meter and on which appears the following request: Please mark on the above dials the position of the hands on your meter as they stand at the present time in the man- ner indicated on other side of this card. Above hand Our in- represents position of spector called to read your meter on rey but could not get in. Kindly comply with above request, or notify us when your meter may be read; otherwise we will assume that your premises are tem- porarily closed and that no current aas been used during month just closed, and we will send you a statement in aceurd- ance therewith. Union Electric. Light and Power Company. The wording of the card is interesting. It shows the courtesy which the Union Electric strives to maintain in this rela- tion with customers. Something like the service which the quartermaster renders, the stable depart- ment supplies in the Union Electric or- ganization. To take care of the horses and vehicles utilized in the operation ef the brigade, twenty men are necessary. The Union Electric equipment is not em- tirely horseless. There are in the stables at Nineteenth and Gratiot streets, sixty- five horses which are used with wago where speed is of no consideration, most of the Union Electric wagon and truck service is rendered by automobiles. These automobiles are electrically driven except where they are required to ecovbr a great deal of territory, that is, where the service needed is more thas miles a day. The = ment of the commeretal regli- ment includes a public electric garage, not for the b e’s assortment of automo- Biles, but eqateively for the eo At this garage, No. 3920 Morgaa thi Union Electrie men take eare of cighty pleasure and business electric automobiles for the owners of them. When this branch of the Union Electric organization was established, there were in St. Louis eighteen electric automobiles. Now there are more than four hundred. The purchasing department is the Unies Electric commissary. It is carried eo with fifty men who have a miain depot at Nineteenth and Gratiot streets, with branch supply depots at No. 1908 Loenst; at the headquarters, Tenth and St. Charles streets, and at the Union Electric arsenal, the foot of Ashley street.

In the latest report of the Interstate Commerce Commission, the railroads to which St. Louis is central are grouped by the great rivers, so that Missouri, south of the Missouri River, is in group VIII, with 31,70 miles of track, while Missouri, north of the river, is in group VI, with 61,091 miles. This group extends south to the mouth of the Ohio and includes the St. Louis connections which enter through [IIll- nois only in part, the rest being included in group Ili, east of the Wabash and north of the Ohio. Missouri is thus in two groups, which alone have the enor- mous total of 82,791 miles of track, or enough to stretch more than three times around the earth. On the Interstate Commerce map this grouping by rivers shows the railroads following the great streams, the Missis- Rallroad tral, East, Railroad tral, West, Railroad Centra] South Cen. give St. Louis its water connection with this midcontinental area in which the miles of single track reported at 162,.-. in the latest report of the Interstate Commerce Commission exceed the total mileage of the rest of the world, except Europe.

As this is permanent; as the railroad trackage of the future will fall into natural systems, the fact that the meet- ing place of these systems is already decided by nature is the most import- ant fact in the history of St. Louis and of the United States. St. Louis will always have the Mis- sissippi and the Missouri in an hour by trolley from any part of its incorporated area of the future. With the mouth of the Ohio to the South, a few hours away, it is (and it is to become more than ever) the midcontinental city for steam and electric roads, as it is for its own rivers. No combination in railroad control could change this, if it were wished to change to it. The natural lines of least resistance have decided it and hundreds of millions have been spent by railroads in finding and following them. Those who try to take in all of what this means now and must mean here- after, have too much in view on the map. Look at a school globe, putting the hand on Europe te turn it. As it turns, with Europe covered, think of what it means, when daily shipments of goods made in St. Louls over rall- road tracks which would extend five times around the world reach out in different directions over more miles of track in the Central United States than there is elsewhere on the entire planet, outside of Europe. Then it will be easy to see that in another generation, this track in the central states of the Union will exceed that of Europe, as the track in a single St. Louis group now exceeds that of the greatest country in Europe. St. Louls Certain to Profit. . The railroads to which this track be- longs are bound to build up St. Louis in the future as they are doing now. They must go on adding all the popu- lation they can along their lines, to sup- port the lines. Every additional mil- lion of population along their tracks centers its buying power on the city which is central to its business by rail and water. St. Louls alone is perma- nently central to both these movements. This is its navigable water mileage, for comparison with its rail connection: Mississippi Fiver, 2429 miles. . Missouri River, 2284 miles. Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland and Ohio, 2362 miles. Total navigable mileage, including the Arkansas, etc., 7007.6 miles. Railroads connect with St. Louis for business, and business with them means more freight and more money for it. The river connection helps to give more money by moving more freight instead of waiting on ‘‘congestion’’ to raise the rate. This is why St. Louis adopted “River Regulation is Railroad Regula- tion” as the motto of its deep water movement. Every mile of this connecting water helps freight to move easily and at the most reasonable rates through the whole LOUIS 2 hh Lx rs ‘“ - pi oe Ree bear ee: halk SEM iS pate Cee me ieee © -el

The truth in that connection is much more inter- Sting than most fiction. But it be- lonm@s to biography and not to modern bu®iness.

| versity in a special report on chem- E “MAKE COLD”! |} the greatest single feature of Twen- been sprung already. Thir is how it is explained by Prof. Charles E. Monroe of George Washington Uni- icals te the Department of Commerce and Labor: “The increase in the quantity of anhydrous ammonia manufactured depends principally upon the exten- sion of the compressor system of arti- ficial refrigeration, though this sub- stance is also employed to some ex- tent {In the absorption system. Thus, from the report on manufactured ice it appears that at the census of 1900, 546,666 pounds of anhydrous ammon- ia, costing $249,838, were used in the compressor system, and 109,869 pounds, costing $29,842, in the ab- sorption system; while at the census x 1908, 1,795,893 pounds, valued at $484,769, were used in the compres- sor system and 136,604 pounds, cost- ing $37,506, in the absorption sys- tem. “There were therefore used in the manufacture of ice, at the census of 1900, a total of 1,066,535 pounds of anhydrous ammonia, costing $279,689, and at the census of 1905 a total 1,932,497 pounds, costing $522,275. The manufacture of ice, however, rep- resents but a part, and probably the lesser part, of the application of the process of artificial refrigeration, for, as is well known, it is applied very extensively in cold storage for the preservation of food products, and in many manufacturing operations.” {if this is not entirely clear, it may become so when it is explained that ne of the most important manufac- tured products of the twentieth cen-- tury is artificial cold, and St. Louls is now one of the great artificial cold centers of the world. Prof. Monroe credits St, Louis with the manufacture of the first liquid hydrogen made in the United States. This was during fhe World's Fair. Like liquid air, it was an exhibition of British science. As cold-producers, liquid air and liquid hydrogen may have several scientific revolutions in them, but as a raw material for mak- ing the artificial cold of commerce in any quantity, ammonia is reliable and cheap. The business which depends on ar- tificial cold after it is made, now runs into the hundreds of millions. It is life. extent It depends to a on what was ago only as around man- tieth century considerable noticed 200 years an unpleasant smell ure heaps. Without the modern city could not be fed. Take it away now and the death rate of New York and London might double in a year. St. Louis not only refrigerates meat, eggs, fruit and all other perishable products for market, but it has pipes in which artificial cold is carried un- der some of the downtown streets. One of the results of the chemical industry promised for the future, is that the owner of a St. Louis resi- dence will “turn on the cold” when the thermometer is above 90 in the shade, as more heat is turned on in zero weather. - This is one example of what can it

be done with St. Louis chemicals. a ee oo

The ! rest would make one of the most in- teresting books in any library if it were all! told. Perfumes are a “side line” in nearly all drug stores in the show case with the fancy soaps. The fancy soaps are chemical products and *o are the perfumes. All the finest perfumes and the most delicate flavoring ex- tracts come in nature from “woody fiber” or from the sap which makes it. Tar is only another form of this Sap. The fragrance of a rose or of @ lily, or the delicate flavor of a peach may be manufactured out of the cheapest material by any chem- ist who Knows how. Tar can be made to produce both the colors and the scents of flowers. Corn startch ‘is extracted from the woody fiber of Missouri cornfields and no one knows how many things may yet be made of corn starch be- Sides “glucose” and “corn syrups.” Preserves are made of it in dishonest cities and also ice-cream. But every one expects St. Louis science to be used wholly for improving nature and not for criminal forgery of its best products. This year we will ma.ae 98,500 000 of the total we sell in drugs and chemicals and we wiil pay of $1,500,000 to 1400 men at work in the business. In 1905 chemicals without drugs gave the city a total of §$3,- 248,000 and all druggists’ prepara- tions together gave $1,551,000. It is a great business. It has all best brain of the world at work for it every year, making its possibil- ities greater. Nothing else has so wide a range for doing great and Startling things as chemistry. Noth- ing else is better worth studying. When St. Louis leads in supplying chemicals, it is at the front of the firing line of twentieth century pro- gress. ST, LOUIS’ ENVIRONS TO SHOW GREAT INCREASE and St. Big wages

st. Clair County, IIL, Louis County Get Overflow. St. Louls County will probably show the greatest percentage growth in pop- ulation, though St. Louis growth into St. Clair County, Ill., makes it certain that East St. Louis will soon rank as the second city of Illinois. This industrial district, soon to be con- nected by three bridges across the Mis- sissippi with their western terminals in- side the city limits, is expected by the Census Office to connect itself through- out, more and more closely, until it will be reached in all its parts by rapid tran- sit for passengers and easy movement for freight from the central point of the “city proper.” The new plan of taking the ‘industrial and manufacturing census” is based on this expectation. St. Louls with over $300,000,000 worth of goods ‘‘made in St. Louis’’ inside the incorporated limits, will add between $60,000,000 and $70,000,000 made outside the limits, with a possibil- ity that the outside total will be over $70,000,000.

of 1919 showed Louis ap- ers. Plans were drawn for skyscrapers to be begun before the close of the year. and in July it was said that the work of the architect was “about done’’ on one of 22 stories, to be begun in the fall. But without a single skyscraper —ruring in tota’s during the first half of the year, the rate for the year on the figures of six months is over $21,000,000. The 4548 permits for buildings issued includes ‘‘improvements,"" so that the tato.l of $10,830,822 as the building invest- ment from Jan. 1 to June 39, 1910. can- not be averaged on the number of per- mits issued. It is only by going through the rec- ords from week to week that the extent and variety of new buildings for the year appears. Only One $100,000 Residence. There is only one res'dence costing $100,000 or over. It was begun in May. in Portland place. The items of $100,000 or over are for factories, commercial buildings and flats. The highest figure for the six months is $220,000 for a new commercial building on Washington av- enue. The prosperity of the St. Louis stove industry is shown by the fact that ‘n April one company beean a group of s!x buildings to cost $223,000, while in July another company began a new factory costing $108,000. A brake company plant with a new building costing $100,000; a new bag fac- tory building costing $100,000 and an ice plant building costing $90,000 illustrate the heaviest totals in manufacturing structures. The highest figures in new flats run $135,000, $175,000 and $185,000. Washington University is represented by $148,000 as | the cost of a new “outbuilding,”” and there is an item of $185,000 for a new public school building at 1118 South Sev- enth street.

LOUIS” Manutacturer — a eT NE year ago, when we celebrated with you the advent of this week of industrial display, you did not fully realize the im- portance of the relation between Gas Fuel and the manufacturing interests. Up to that time our sales of Gas Fuel for industrial purposes had been comparatively small. You then decided to give the subject more careful thought and attention. We had ap- proached it cautiously—somewhat slowly, perhaps, but with at- tention, determination and confidence. We first satisfied a few of our consumers and immediately the list began to grow—it grew quite beyond our expectations, until today we have pro- gressed so that our satisfied customers emphatically advo- cate the use of Gas Fuel for any purpose where HEAT is an essential element. Manufacturers are more and more look- ing to us for this fuel supply, realizing that GAS is the very HEAT ESSENCE OF THE COAL, capable of rendering UNI- FORM TEMPERATURE AT ALL TIMES, and UNDER PER- FECT CONTROL. There is no waste, no dirt, no smoke— NOTHING BUT HEAT, and in such form that you can. obtain the highest possible utility and efficiency. Right here is where we want you to fix your attention for just a moment. We want you to think over the heat-using appliances— melting furnaces, drying and annealing ovens, steam generators, forges, soldering furnaces—in your shop or factory, then tele- phone or write our Industrial Department for a representative. He will analyze your requirements to the minutest detail and will show you why GAS Fuel is the BEST FUEL FOR YOU. | ur handsome new booklet, “One Hundred and One Reasons,’ will be of interest and value to you.

1 DEMAND GREATLY _FADEDS SUPPLY Opportunity for Live Manu- facturers to Push St. Louis Made Goods. CLOSE TO THE MARKET Despite Splendid Showing in Implement Output There Is Still Room. 7~ The vatue of farm toots and machin- ery used this year will be not less than $120,000,000.. This is vatue at the factory door. The increase was from $%1,271,000 in 1899 to $101,207,000 in 1800 and to §112,- 007,000 in 190. The value of machinery and tools on the farm is reported as Saining at the rate of $25,000,000 a year. Farming states supplied by St. Louis use more and pay for more than the Fest of the country The city can easily double the sales oi 190 in 1910. In 1910, f= has easily a demand for $10 for every Gollar it can supply of these goods “Made in St. Louis.” Product Relatively Small. - The total reported by the State sta- tistican for the ‘city is $159,579 a year. William M. Steuart reports to the De- partment of Commerce and Labor that “the invention and perfection of ma- @hinery for use in connection with ag- riculture has revolutionized farming in the United States” but that ‘in spite Gf the wide area of its market the area ‘of significant product is relatively @mall.’’ “@‘The number of establishments has Bteadily decreased since 1860 until in 3605 there were less than half the num- Ber reported in 1850," he says. He ex- ins that the industry has been ‘‘cen- fralized.”’ Still St. Louis which has been in the Business since 1550 and before, is in it Still with several factories and 180 peo- ple at work in them. We make plows, Guitivators, harrows, planters, drills and miscellaneous tools, whic. keep Missouri above the million mark, while ‘Massachusetts reports only $64,000.

tion” is often told in reports of court proceedings against monopolies and “trusts.” It makes the opening wider for St. Louis in the future. 1910 Total Estimated at $17,000,000, But farm “implements and machin- ery” do not include the wagons and buggies St. Louls makes in increasing numbers. In “vehicles and implements” together, the St. Louls market distrib- utes an annual total which will be re- ported to the Merchants’ Exchange this year at not less than $17,000,000. The implements are of all Kinds, used in the shop and on the farm. The value of the total of these made in 8t. Louls may reach over $2,000,000, but they are so various that they are not itemized more than once in 10 years. On vehicles, including buggies, car- riages and wagons of St. Leouls make, we have 2658 men at work, drawing wages of $1,500,000 a year. They were turning out a product worth $5,570,000 in the year’last reported. An increase of 10: per cent last year in St. Louts products gives a total ex- pected for 1910 of over $6,000,000, ex- cluding automobiles, which, though they are both vehicles and carriages, are not classed with ‘implements and vehicles” in one report on St. Louis or as “carriages and wagons” in another. Nor does thfs include street and rail- road cars as vehicles. Brains and push put into the buggy business in St. Louis since 1900 have shown what it means to have the best material in the world and the market for what is made from it, both in close reach. In this case it was shown that the demand on the city for all the goods it supplies after buying them elsewhere means a greater demand for its own goods. In nearly every case when total sales still double totals of manufactures in any line, it is an opening for St. Louis manufactures to double as soon as they

are pu ‘hed by someone who knows how.

IMADE-NST. LOUIS MONEY HAS BEEN GREAT INDUSTRY Instances of How Some Lo- cal Fortunes Were Made Cited as Examples.

THERE IS STILL ROOM

Secret of Minting Process Lies in Mixing Brains, Nerve and Opportunity.

When St. Louis was first called “the City of Opportunity,’’ it was because almost without exception its greatest industries have been built up by brains, which “made the money’’ to build up the business. It takes brains, opportunity and money to build up any line of business until it will lead in the United States. The opportunity for brains has always been “‘wide open” in St. Louis. wider open now than it has ever been before. There are more people to be supplied now, they are increasing faster than ever before, and they are also increasing their power to pay for what they need faster than ever before. This makes St. Louis the town for young men. If they have brains and energy, it gives them the opportunity to make money that builds up business out of its own natural growth. Sam Gaty, who founded the iron busi- ness in St. Louls and the West, had barely the price of a meal in his pocket when he began making his fortune. When he did his first busienss as an iron founder it was in making a shaft for a steamboat. “There was not a general lathe in the place’ then. Nor was there any- thing else needed for a “plant.” He used brains, created his plant, met his contract and made money. That is, he saved his first $250 in profits to begin on. After that he never stopped. He grew during his lifetime with a yusiness in iron making that has been growing ever since. It is now ready to grow faster than ever whenever brains are put to work in it in the same way. When this city is to be accounted for as the greatest tobacco-manufacturing center in the world, it is explained in the same way. It is a place where a young man who tooks around finds what he intends to make his life-work and puts brains into it, makes his own money for his own rncreases of plant. The enormous tobacco production of the city grew out of capital under tha hats of the Shaws, Liggetts, Drum- monds and Dausmans. When Daniel R. Garrison came to S8t. Louis he worked for wages in a foundry: The capital under his hat built the first steam engine manufactured west of the Mississippi. This same capital grew afterwards into the Jupiter and Vulcan iron works and into railroads. Adolphus Meier brought a ‘‘fine educa- tion” with him to St. Louis and turned it into factories. After this, he turned it into the first reliable road to the coal fields across the river and proved that no other city in the wor!d has such opportunities in the way of fuel supply for manufacturing power. Mixing Brains and Nerve. When the city is the greatest inland center for ground coffee and spices, it is because such men as William Schot- ten started in it, without waiting for anyone to “capitalize” or “finance” them. When Schotten could afford ao plant excepl a hand mill, he “started”’ the hand mill by turning the crank himself. It is said that Robert M. Funkhouser had more capital than most of the great men of St. Louis when he “‘az- rived.” He had $50 in his pocket and nothing to do when he dropped into an auction room. A job lot of looking glasses seemed such bard stock to others that when he risked his $50 fortune in a bid on them, he got them. Then all he ha: to do was to use brain talent and leg- talent. He made money on the mir- rors and went on making it. We do an enormous business in chem- icals, drugs and druggists’ supplies. In order to start it, Jacob S. Merrill cut cordwood and did other ‘‘odd jobs” in working his way to the city in which he made his start. He helped clear the site of Toledo with his ax, but he kept on to St. Louis and kept on in St. Louis as one of scores who have shown how money is “‘made in St. Louis.” The type-founding industry of the city, second to none in the quality of its prod- uct, ‘‘started’’ under the hat of a man who reached the city “without a penny in his pocket."” The first great Western soap and candle factory was built up by a man who tramped to St. Louis from Pennsylvania, mixed mortar at cents a day and then ‘‘started.’’ St. Louis sells more hardware ‘‘than New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore combined.” Its capitalization began with men who “started” by wr iv -sweeping stores and handling trucks. The twentieth century start in St. Louis boots and shoes was made by brains. They were under the hat of a salesman who saw the opportunity open for supplying the states around St. Louis with boots and shoes mage in St. Louis. When he put his own savings into his own business it was so smal! at the start that some men might have sold it eut at a profit and stepped This is the finanhelal method of “pry- ing up’’ opposition instead of competing with it. This young man of 27 not only started, but kept on. He refused to sel! his ehance. He competed with Boston. His meney was “made in St. Louis” in the Bt. Leouls way. The more he cem- peted, the more money he made. Others in St. Louls saw it. They also started shee facteries and competed with him and with each other, as well es with Beston. Aji made mere money than ever. They will make mere meney next year than last and they will go on making {t. This is the St. Louis way. Money “‘made in St. Louls’’ makes more

money. It is KEEPING UP WITH THE ADVANCE OF SCIENCE IN TRADE How St. Louis Manufacturers Have Acted as Pioneers for New Inventions. IN. THE FiIeELD

EARLY Autos, Airships, Dry Plates and Electrical Supplies Are Some Notable Instances.

In automobiles, which are more mod- ern than anything else except airships, St. Louis “spurted”’ far to the front last year. The demand for automobiles in and around the city is now in the nature of a fairy story. Some things connected with it are not mentioned at all except confidence. There are bookkeepers trust companies who know in St. Louis the auto- in mobile numbers which represent loans on first-class real eState, including mod- ern residences. They never mention names or numbers. About all they say is that the demand for automobiles is astonishing. It is no longer a city demand only. Last year cattle ranches in the level Southwest were outfitted with automo- biles which can run almost anywhere inside the fences, as well as on the roads. With haif a million acres un- der a single fence occasionally, there is room inside and outside the fences for the growth of the automobile business. Autos to the Horizon’s Edge. Photographs of automobile processions at Southwestern cattle conventions stretch to the vanishing point. The num- ber of farmers in Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas now do- ing business in automobiles allows room for the imagination to spread through the multiplication table. It is said that a Tennessee farmer who had hardly been seen in his county town in five years appeared the other day in a new automobile in which he expects to keep on coming unti! the mud stops him. It will do that temporarily in No- vembe?. The moral its that the automobile business is not waiting for good roads. During more than half the year in the level West and Southwest the roads are ‘“‘hard’”’ enough for any sort of a motor car, including the portable steam engine, which moves itself from field to field in harvest time. As a result the reports made this year on last year’s business done by St. Louis in distributing automobiles, show 60 firms. They handle motor cars of 104 different kinds, 10 electric and two steam. The rest are gasoline, and out made for trucking, heavy hauling and freight moving purposes. St. Louis reports 10 local plants at work with a capital of $1,950,000 and 1850 employes. The number of cars made in St. Loulg is reported at 2400 and the value at $3,899,000. : If this is a grand total instead of an annual,. the infancy of the automobile industry is still beyond the need of apology. The level West is setting both its heart and its hecd on automobiles. It is likely to have more of them in use to the thousand of population in five years than any other part of the world. Anyone who would guess how close to what their total values will be in ten years might be thought fit for the ob- servation ward, if he told his guess. Waiting for the “Airship.” For this reason, it may be better to say nothing at all of the future use ef aeroplanes in the level West. With aeroplanes and flying machine company already in existence, St. Louis can af- ford to wait with this infant until the first flight is made to Denver and re- turn on schedule time. No one doubts now that it will be done. Industry begins, however, when money begine to come regularly as the goods go out. We can postpone the very latest and most modern in prospective indus- tries to mention the fact that St. Louis electrical industries have now reached a state of infancy where they report a total of $16,000,000 a year as an increase o. 83 per cent over the preceding 12 months. This is medern enough to satis. fy most people and a totai of $16,000,000 is certainly satisfying. Some towns make themselves famous on a grand total of less than that for their combined industries, ancient and modern. Electricity calls for science. St. Louls meets the demand though really nothing electric is more scientific than turning an ear of corn into candy and clay into kitchen utensils. We do both these things in the 8t. Louis in- dustrial district. Although not ag modern throughout as electrical supplies, the dry plate and photograph supply business in St. Louis is now reaching all over the United States, Canada and Mexico. With $1,000,- 000 invested in dry-plate making and a product of about $2,500,000, the city is en- titled to lead in this industry, of which it is virtually the Inventor. Its product is estimated et 95 per cent of the total for the United States. as it stands for the march of science,’ it stands high. The aeroplane is not above it scientifically. Demand for Improved Cameras. This ig true also of the improved cameras St. Louis is marketing. They are as scientific as science can make them. The capital is small, because knowledge with little money creates the values in them out of almest noth. ing, except knowing how. This means so much that the demand for them, as @ mall order feature of the city’s manufacturing business, be- came international soon. There may be people in Canada and twiee as many om tae Pacific Coast who could fina the factory and salesrooms without the directory as there are in St. Louis itself. =

| This has been @he case in other things of the total number of kinds seven are also. St. Louls has always been doing & great deal better in most things than anyone but people outside of St. Louis knew. In this connection a story is told, good enough for science, though it is cred- ited to philosophy and hams. St. Louis had a famous philosopher once. He had @ Pupil who announced in an open meeting that the man hardly thought of at all in St. Louis was better known to the world outside than any other St. Louitsan. After the interval of silence, it is Said that James A. Waterworth spoke from the floor for a modest and in- Conspicuous friend of his own. In his opinion, the name on the label of St. Louis suger-cured hams was better known outside of St. Louis than the name of the most famous living philoso- pher. The story may have improved with age, but it may apply still to other things besides philosophy and hams. Our Output of Philosophy. It may not be generally known th:s year that the Si. Louis and Missouri Output of high-grade philosophy exceeds the tonnage and intrinsic value of the vutput of Massachusetts. It is as much tbove the demand of this year’s market “S Was the output of the first pioneer duminum factory, which St. Louis started when the world was first startled by the discovery that a metal almost as light as paper and as shining as silver could be manufactured from clay ww. “Girt.” The world was not ready for aluminum then. It has learned a great deal since. The first aluminum plant in St. Louis was pioneering about the year 1890, when the total production of the United States was only 61,2 pounds. The United Stateg Geological Bureau now reports over 17,000,000 pounds used yearly in the United States. she heaviest demand comes from the manufacturers of railway cars and mo- for cars. It doubled between 194 and ivve and it is increasing now at a rate airships and aeroplanes are expected to treble. To meet tne demand, the new aluminum plant which had been started in East St. Louis reported to Washington that it greatly enlarged its capac.., in 1907 and that it was treating the output of the “bauxite fields’ of Arkansas. When “bauxite,”” which is one of the best ores of aiuminum, was found in Saline and Pulaski counties, Arkansas, and in Tennessee, the fields were se- cured to accommodate the airship busi- ness of ie future, as the rubper ucids ave been secured to accommodate the modern demands for suto-tires. Almost everything, from a souvenir poon or pepper shaker to the ear of in airship, has been made of aluminum. East St. Louls is the great Western center of production, with other works :

When the metal is produced 99 fiie, high science can use it for its highest work of improvement, such as the long-distance carriage of electric power. A voltage of 60,000 was used in experiments transmitting power from Niagara Falls. The equipment of alumi- num wire in use between Niagara Falls and Syracuse, 160 miles, was last re- ported at 12,000 miles of heavy wire in three cables of 19 strands each. The public which sees aluminum pep-

i per boxes on the 10-cent counters and reads of the aluminum airship of the future, does not often see or hear of such modern improvements as this. The new uses for riew things, made possible by brains, mean new opportunities for making money from material which has been as “cheap as dirt” around St. Louis. The “bauxite” of the Ozarks has been as cheap as any other dirt, but it is a valuable “resource” now. It {fs only one illustration of what increasing knowledge is doing. There are many like ig.

i A SIEN OF GROWTH After manufactures have been mea<- sured in the old way by the value of the product and the number of.men em- ployed in making it, they are now mea- sured by horsepower. One of the most interesting and im- portant things to be learned about St. Louis manufactures this year is the ex- tent of the changes in horsepower used during five years since the last reports. Showed Great Promise. Then the revolution which was said te be in full swing promised St. Louls a great deal. The city and the State as a whole were making no progress in the use of water power. On this some of the most important industries in New England depend for existence. it was used for all it waa worth there 20 years ago, and there is little or no chance for New England to advance further through its use. Aside from the use of water power, m which a great deal may bé done in the future, St. Louls industries were show- ing the use of the local fuel supply i an increasing horsepower from electric motors and from gas and gasoline én-< sines. The total for the city and sub urbs was thus reported in 1906: | Industrial district of St. Louls, Mo. motive power employed in Se de of St. Rt. Louls.

Northwest and South, Both at Our Doorway, Are Only Less Flourishing.

The movement of population during the last ten years changed its direction. It was no longer from East to West, with the lines parallelling the Lakes controlling it. While the East to West movement continued, St. Louis grew in a healthy way, but Chicago grew like @ mushroom after a week of rain. Rail- roads which headed the Lakes and turned Northwest made Chicago great by building up support for themselves along their lines, connecting with the deep-water routes of the Lakes. The new movement has been from Northeast to Southwest. The railroads, centering in St. Louis and reaching West and Southwest, have been working to build up their own supporting territory in a way that broke all previous records. They have printed “boom’’ literature by the ton. It illustrates every feature of life and of the chances for greater production in the states which support their lines. Gateway to Other Sections. The result is being hinted at in first figures, showing that some districts are so far below theiY own estimates of in- crease that the census office is grieved even to hint at it, while others are reaching totals which when shown in advance estimates were thought of as “boom figures.”’ The Census Bureau hinted this move- ment in the estimate of gain of popula- tion to the square mile of area it pub- lished for the middle of the decade, showing these results for the Southwest- ern group, including Missouri: Pop. to sq. mile. 1906.

Kansas New Mexico. ; Ps 2 This total area of 712,006 square miles is between a fifth and a fourth of the gains far beyone the cautious estimate of the census experts. Gateway to Other Sections, The percentages of gain in. the Ohio and Mississippi River states south of St. Louis are exceeded only by the percentages of the Southwest. St. Louis is the “gateway” of both these groups and it is equally the gateway of the Northwest. The Southwest begins on the St. Louis side of the Missouri River, and _ the Northwest on the other bank. That is the only difference in geography, though, as the prairies begin on the north side of the Missouri River, the end of the nineteenth century left it a generation ahead of the Southwestern Ozark region in agricultural develop- ment. Missouri itself is both Southwestern and Northwestern in this way, with St. Louis at the focus where Northwest and Southwest begin. With Illinois on the other bank of the Mississippi, the St. Louis states are already the greatest group on the map, measured by their tn- creases of the last 10 years and the last 2. , and 1900 as the Census Bureau is hinting that Central fIllinols is checked now. But Illinois will ad- vance as Kansas rallied. This notice of Kansas expectations for this year was published for completion by the Washington enumerators: Kansas, Census, 1895.. U. 8S.

The trade reports put .he minimum figure for 1910 production at 65,000,0u pounds of “pluz’ and other chewing’ to- bacco, with total values of over $50,- 000,000 in tobaccos and cigars made and sold at wholesale. The State report of 1909 credits the city with $27,000,000 as St. Louis made goods in the year following the panic. The census this year may show above $50,000,000 made here, out of tne total made and sold. From a Small Beginning. In many ways the business is one of the most interesting in the United States. St. Louis took the lead in mak- ing plug tobacco nearly two generations azo. Out of almost nothing at all it had reached a position so commanding 12 years ago that it controlled the situa- tion for the WUnited States in the re- organization of the industry. That reorganization left the city stil) entrenched in control. Its plug tobacco goes everywhere in the Uniied States and out. It is in the pockets of chewers in Africa who have pockets and it is chewed in darkest Africa where they wear nothing but a ‘g-string’ for full dress. The ‘‘open door’ in Asia is an opening for St. Louis plug and fine-cut. It goes round and round the world as the quid in the cheeks of sailors in the world’s navies, in war and peace, It is an international business, not only because it is likely to be chewed wherever men chew at all, but because European governments enter the market for the supply of the leaf used in Louis factories. The greatest tobacco factory in the world is a wonder be- St

Tobacco and its products, liquors, malt and boots and shoes gave a total of $67,000,000 out of the $267,000,000 on our last census count. Malt tiquors were second then only to tobacco. On the city’s own count this vear, both malt licvors and tobacco are second ta ieather goods, but with the largest brew- ery in.the United States, if not in the world, a St. Louis output of 3,225,000 bar- rels of beer is entered in our totals at By comparison with the $20,930,000 re- ported from Washington in 1905, it ap- pears that there is a mistake in the maps published in some of the maga- zines with large areas shaded to show an increase of suffering in the consci- entious drouth districts. It ig said by some that the St. idea of temperance beverages is Ger- man. On the other hand, the idea of mineral waters and “soft drinks’’ is cer- tainly a St. Louls idea and Enno*San- ders, who was its pioneer, was a Ger- man revolutionist, one of the first rank, or, it might be said, of the first water, if his qualities were measured by the sparkle of the carbonic acid bead in soft drinks. Besides the estimate of 1,100,000 gal- lons a year to cover the mireral waters proper made in St. Louis, and as chem- ically pure as if they had come from the most famous springs, the city foots up 6,000,000 bottles of soda pop, with beverages of this exhilarating kind in- creasing with the sale of the different specialties in beer. The St. Louis idea of temperance dates back of the arrival of Lemp to St. Vrain. It is French in its St. Louis be- ginnings, not German. The American idea of a beverage was then four fingers of.the liquid the “poet-naturalist’’ Au- dubon imported from Loulsville when it was respectable to drink four fingers ‘“straight’’ without showing it. The French villagers of St. Louis had the French idea of light drinks and table wines. When table wines were out of reach, they took St. Vrain’s beer Louis

For the year ending June 30, 1910, the total paid by the United States for im- ported tin was $25,000,000, of which $9,- 000,000 came from the Straits Settle- ments and nearly all the rest from the British mines. This gives less than a pound of tin a vear tahe head of ‘our present popuiation. Considering the number of purposes for which tin or something in the way of a substitute must be used, Granite City results from “granite ware’ and enameled ware of various kinds.

& F . es * FUNSTEN BROS. & CO. HAVE MADE ST. LOUIS THE GREATEST FUR CENTER IN THE WORLD Furs Representing a Total Value of Millions of Dollars Are Shipped to This Firm by the Trapper and Hunter From All Parts of North America—Great Buildings Modernly Equipped for the Hand- ling of Furs Contribute to the Firm’s Phenomenal Success. Probably few people realize that St. Louis is the greatest primary fur market in the world. Since a century and a quarter ago when this city first attained fame as a grent fur trading center, the business has been growing and St. Louis only leads in that line, but has the largest fur dealing firm in the world, Funsten Bros. & Co., whose buying operations reach ovt to every fur producing section of this Continent. It was about 1810 that St. Louis began to attract attention as « fur market and trappers and hunters sent their hides of the buffalo, bear and mountain lion from the great North nad West here to be marketed. The business assumed large proportions in those days, but it wes small when compared to the operations of Funsten Bros. & Co. at the present time. As orarsecg the importance and rench of the business of ‘this firm, during the past winter representa- tives f:om fur houses in: England, Germany, France, Russia and other European countries came here to buy their supplies of raw furs, because they can be obtained in larger quan- tities than at any other place in the country. FPunsten Bros. & Co. do a wholesale business only, selling to St. Louis fur dea:ers and to buyers who come from every part of the United States and Europe. Their immense building, de- signed and erected especially for the handling and grading of raw furs, is conceded by fur experts to be the finest building in the world for the handling of raw furs. The floors where the grading is done, where the furs are valued and assorted, are per- fectly lighted and are equipped with every known device to facilitate the work. Employing no traveling agents, prac- tically all of the furs of Funsten Bros. & Co. are received in the’ raw state direet from the trapper and fur col- lector, from every state and section of the United States, from Canada, Alaska and from as far north as the Arctic Circle, The annual business of the firm reaches into millions of dol- lars, and Funsten Bros. & Co. have been the méans of bringing millions of dollars worth of business of. al! lines to the St. Louis market. This would not have been possible but for the enterprising method of the firm in bringing trapper and manufacturer to- gether. .

These were the skins of beaver, marten, red fox, silver fox, black fox, sea otter, polar bear and other animais. All told, they consti- tuted a remarkable collection of furs to those not familiar with the busi- ness, but it was nevertheless just an everyday affair with Funsten Bros. & Co. Many of those who attended the banquet assumed the furs displayed constituted the season’s collection and were astounded when told that they were the ordinary two days’ offering. With an exception here and there, the entire lot had been disposed of -the next day and fresh lots were arriving from all sections of the country.

It is at the base of Supply for everything uséd ih making any kind of furniture intehded for any sort of general use in the United States. It runs the scale from &n ice chest to a plano or a cathedral organ. Excepting only tropical woods, it is also at the base of supply for material for the finest furniture in use. Its fac- tories can supply mahogany and rose- wood for furniture on demand. If other cities can compete in this, St. Louis has the advaiitage of its oWn $120,000,000 cap- ital, brifiging in reach of thé furfilture factory the best woods of the finest hardwood forests left anywhere north of the tropics. Thesé @fe all réached by St. Louis railroads and they stilk grow along St. Louis rivers so densely that it is hard for a saw mill to cut its way into them. Southeast Missouri and Eastern Afkan- sas can supply any North Ametican hardwood that is called for in making furniture. This explains a St. Louis furniture businéss reported by Geofge T. Par- fker at $25,000,000 a year, including goods made in St. Louis. It also explains the fact that the city has a ‘Permanent Furniture Exposition’ open all the year, with a display of fine furniture in it which convinces visitors that they need seek no further. Also, there are smaller rival ‘‘expo- sitions’’ in the way of showrooms and gelésrooms opened in the city by the furniture makers of competing points, 40 that St. Louls is growing into a fur- hiture headquarters for other cities as well as into a great manufacturing point. It is shipping St. Louis-made furniture to Mexico, Panama and Cuba, as well as to the states of its home mar- ket. ; In furniture without the ‘“‘allied lines,”’ it has 50 factories in 1910, and their prod- uct runs to $5,000,0uU0 4a year. Thié is house furniture, office furniture, furni- ture for schools and public buildings and furniture for all the uses of life. Incidentally, one of its ‘‘allied lines” its not for the “uses of life. It is “coffins and caskets,’’ with salés of $3,000,000 a year, out of whichmfive factories in St. Louie report $1,850,000 as their output.

The capital and surplus of St. Louls banks have increased in 10 years from $42,285,538 to over $84,000,000, so that the gain‘of a 100 per cent marks the advance of the city as money center during the decade.

In accounting for this incréase, the Business Men's Leagtie has compared it with other increases during the s&me period.

The total for the last five yéars more than doubles that for the preceding five, while the total for 1909 quadruples that for 1900. Beginning with a total of $5.- 916,000 for new buildings in 1900, the city spent nearly $180,600,000 for new buildings and building improvements in ten years, exclusivé of those of the municipality.” Manufacturing Also Doubles. The increase in manufacturing cap- ital shows the sAmé fate of hundred ber céht gain.

MASUR, T'S an event that means a great deal to every mother and father—and every boy and girl—it’s an event that sets a new record in the making of Children's Shoes. For many years we’ve worked and planned on perfecting a line of Children’s Shoes that will excel anything ever produced—and at last we feel satisfied —and so will you. Our Nine O’Clock School Shoes are a decided improvement over any Boys’ or Girls’ Shoes on the market today. They are made of specially selected leathers all the way through—the lasts are roomy and scientifically designed so that they permit the natural growth of the children’s feet. The styles are nobby and different. See These Shoes This Week You'll quickly recognize that they excel anything you’ve ever tried on your children’s feet—and what’s more, they will hold your good opinion, for they will wear half again as long as other School’ Shoes, making them the most economical shoes you can buy. Make It a Point to their shoes this week—and try Nine O’Clock Shoes? Pretty soon you'll be fitting the children for school—why not get Over 80 progressive Shoe dealers in St. Louis are displaying and featuring them—each and every dealer is as enthusiastic as we are over the instantaneous success of Nine O'Clock School Shoes for Boys and Girls. See Our Exhibit at the Coliseum Most likely you’ll visit the Coliseum this week to see all the good things made in St. Louis, so don’t miss the ‘‘good thing” for boys and girls—Nine O’Clock Shoes. A beautiful souvenir book, ‘‘Our Flag,’’ by Francis Scott Key III, will be given to every boy or girl accompanied by their parents. (Our booth is the first to the right of Main Entrance.)

Kessler, the landscape arehitect who designed the landscape features of the Louisiana~ 2 : ex — a & ~ E : ad 3 ig i ad ™ Purchase Exposition. His designs’ contemplate an entrancing outlook from the terrace at a Cost Exceeding $300,000. 7 - i ae i = on the family side of the chatean, a great lawn stretching away through the park in which ‘ | Ps, Oe & an m™ the herds of deer, tor which the farm is already noted, ill be seen. From the windows on. ee ee. this side of the building beautiful vistas stretch away through the natural forest. © The ’ other side of the house overl.u s the beautiful Mecamec Valley. : The chateau will'be approached by several beautiful winding drives through the park from both the Grant road:and the Gravois roa’ | The chateau itselx is in the‘early French renaissance style of architecture; and will be simple, dignified and homelike, with a warm roof above gray stone and granite, with just enough red‘Freneh brick showing between the stone for warmth and harmony, Every facade of the house will have an importance all its own. Unlike most houses the entrance driveway will not be’along the principal front of the house, but will sweep up from the back, or that overlooking the Meramec Valley. In the center of the front of the house is a stately entrance hall, 24 feet wide, on either side of which are the living room and the dining room, each 41.6x24 feet in di- mension. Facing the guest who enters the hall is a splendid staircase rising to the upper floor, which will be modeled after that in. the Grand Opera in Paris. : Entrance from the rear is by way of a dignified pillared porch, and under the stair- case into the front hall. - The hunting room, behind the living room, is probably the most splendid of its kind in this country. It was designed by Mr: Busch according to his own ideas of what such JP, | a room should be, but was modeled after the gorgeous old hunting rooms that are a feat- ure of the great. houses in res ininb as ' od ‘is echiian ss = , : At one end will rise the great fireplace of stone, copied from those that adorn the — STRAUSS PORTRAIT old German houses. The walls will be hung with trophies of the chase, great stag and boar AUG. A. BUSCH ' heads, and with gun racks and other accoutrements of the hunt. The wainscoted walls will be made of cedar, and above the rail, for steins and cups, the wall be of interwoven birch, producing a remarkably beautiful ‘and odd effect. At intervals about the room great carven seats will be built into the walls, and in the center massive tables of the old German style. The floors Living Room Eatrance Dining Room will be covered with skins of deer and bear and buffalo.. This will be Mr, Busch’s own lounging and entertaining room. Behind it is a den for his boys, : with billiard table and other means of amusement. . mee a. we pie wut , ore ae" The living room will have an aleove for the grand piano, a great fireplace and bookcases; which latter Mr. Fred Lehmann, the bibliophile, has promised to design. - | The ceiling will have a design in relief, the walls will probably be covered with tapestry, and the oak floor with the most beautiful rugs that looms can produce. : : The large dining room will be heavily wainscoted in oak, with a fountain instead of a fireplace, and will be treated in’a rich, warm style of decoration. | Behind the dining room is a breakfast room, dainty and inviting. The offices of the house open off it, The sleeping chambers will all be on the second floor, — with others - the third floor. Mr. Busch will furnish the lower part of the house with belongings made especially for it from designs by masters of the” furniture crait. * 7 | ‘ae ae One of the unique and beautiful features pertaining to the new establishment will be a bauernhof, or settlement for the help on the farm. At some distance ¢— from the chateau will be‘a large yard surrounded by a stone wall with an arched entrance. ‘ Within the wall-will be the house for the families of those in charge 7 of the work of the farm. The house will be divided into several apartments of five rooms each for the use of the families of the chauffeur, the gardenér, the | farmer and the milkmaids. It will follow in design similar houses for the same’ purpose to. be found on'the great estates of Germany, and will be ext picturesque. In the yard will be the. cow houses, the stables for the horses, andthe garage. Mr. Busch’s new, country home will represent the of more than $300,000, not counting the value of the land. we cee Beta he ay iy pe ~f nt Ra’ —— . : | @ytler's | Roo - ~- m « ; * “> : * . » % - S 4 t ‘ ‘ " ; - Z 2 sry, tS ‘ bis ee ; 3 at i ee Cee ee ?. > . © ' a ~ Ad Mpe e 4 Bee h S ai ee ee ee er ee ae ae

Mrs, Anderson desired to be the Recorder of Wright County, Iowa, and she ' “‘leid her wires,’ ‘‘built her fences’ and ‘*spread the salve"’ with the ability of a sea- soned politician, winning the nomination at ttc primaries after as strenuous a campaign as aman could have made. This is the first time a woman, on avowed suffragette, and yet not a ‘‘rank"’ one, as phe says, has gone out into the fleld and - asked the men to vote for her on her merits as good political timber. Mrs. Anderson has a sense of humor, and by right of her widowhood presumably has a sufficient knowledge of man’s nature to make her dangerous as an opponent to a mere man ina campaign. In asking the suf- frage of the men of her county she did not have recourse to her femininity, but weni at the voters on the straight issue of her fit- ness for the office and her superiority to the other candidate. Having been @ rural school teacher she had an education at least equal to that of many of the men in the county, and better than most, and she combined with this a high ideal of political obligation, the ability to speak in public, indefatigable energy, and— her duty to her four fatherless children. In apite of the wiles of the practised pols- ticians who were opposed to her, she won handily. Out of 22 voting precincts she car- ried 17. Her opponent carried one small town, three wards in another town, and beat her by two votes in one farming precinct, and the farmers cast more votes at that pri- mary than for many years. AMPAIGNING in least for a woman, is not an unpleasant experience, judg- ing from Carrie Vaughn An- derson’s own description of the events that transpired during her efforts to win the nomination for the office of recorder of Wright County, in that State. Four years ago Mrs. An- derson lost her husband, and the duty of the support of their children devolved upon her. This happened at the close of a “political year,” as the politicians call it, when candidates for every ‘ office in the gift of the people seem to spring out of the ground, and the process of elimina- tion becomes a battle of wits and influence. At this time Mrs. Anderson cast her ¢ye upon the office of recorder of her county as a place ‘ she could acceptably fill and which would fur- nish an income for the comfortable support of her children. Of her ability to perform the du- ties of the office she had no doubt, and she de- cided to let the man who had just been elected =|C Beating the Politicians at Their Own Game. ™ to the office fill it for two terms, and then go after it herself. Right there she began to construct her “po- litical fences,” as the politicians call the plot of - their campaign of persuading the people to vote for them, and she put the first posts in the ground by doing anything honorable to “get be- fore the public.” An aspirant for the office of . president of the United States could do no more. ~.

At * first the voters look- od askance at this woman campaigner. “and some of the ' Women sniffed and turned up their ‘noses, but she kept right on edging into the public eye and mind and in the end she woh out, but it was hard work. Some of the made were raid for, but she was accused of having paid to be al. lowed to make oth- ers, or at least of having begged her audience to remain ° and hear her, argu- Ments after the masculine orators had finished. “I rather think I bad the best of the -@peech-making,” said Mrs, Anderson ifn re- lowa, at en. eae ee Cee FRAY ee ee 2 a Se iis 4 or vociferously, as the case might be, and laid a firm foundation for her candidacy when the time might come, She became well known all over the county, and she was welcomed in many places where the farmers were tired of listening to the buncomb of the old-time politicians. At least, Mrs. Anderson’s candidacy had something fresh about it, there was a flavor of newness in having a good-looking widow tell a man what he should do to save his country. “The official announcements cf the candidates for the county offices were made in February of the present year,” said Mrs. Anderson, “and we all began work in earnest. I was engaged in teaching a rural school in my own home, and Saturday was always a busy political day with me. Every Saturday I campaigned in earnest, and did a land-office business.’ “The school closed April 1; and I decided to resign and devote myself exclusively to politics. The men.told me I better keep out of it, that politics was no place for a woman, but I de- cided to stick just the same. “My opponent, and other interested parties, told me that I was not onto the game, } new nothing of political conditions, and the wires that were necessary“to pull to get preferment, and that I was not acquainted with the men who controlled the vote in the various townships. “I informed them all, as politely as I could under the circumstances, that the day was pass- ing when one man could control the vote of @ whole township, and promptly proceeded to see the voters personally. “I ‘made’ all the towns before going into the country districts. The hardest part of the whole campaign was in talking to the first few men ] met, but I soon became accustomed to the ‘spiel’ and enjoyed it immensely for a time. The man- ner in which different men considered the mat: ter of my candidacy was rather amusing. “Some of the men were absolutely opposed to women holding office, others were sympathizers of the syffrage movement, while in others the personal note was struck, and they promised to vote for me because [I had children to support. “I am sorry to have to say so, but I felt like fighting a good many times because of the attitude of the more ignorant men I met in saying: “What do women know about voting, any way? Their place is in the home.’ My pugna- efous feeling was not SO much because of their opposition to women in _ politics, but their own ina- bility to comprehend the obligation of the franchise. They had no fixed politica) principles. Like Ber- nard Shaw, who was making a rambling ralitical speech when he was interrupted by a voter, who call- ed eut: ‘What are you political princt- ples, anyhow?’ Shaw replied: ‘I have no principles.~ I make told me because they were Democrats they couldn’t vote for me.

They were engaged with their plow- ing and planting, and hadn’t much time to talk politics, which the town man can nearly alway: find time to do. It is, in a way, a deplorable fact that farmers haven't the time to become closer students of politics. “A farmer was plowing in a field when he saw me coming toward him. He waited for me wit. wide open mouth and eyes, and when I had fin- ished telling him why I was there he asked: ‘By gosh, do women run for office the same as men?’ When I assured him it was even so, that women, not being allowed to vote or uelp make the laws, naturally had to do their campaigning in the same manner as the men, he said enthusiastic- ally: ‘Lady, you sure have got my Vote.’ “An old farmer to Whom I was introduced heard what I had to gay, with a twinkle in his eye, and said: ‘Why, sure, ma’am, you look good to me.’ “Many of the men regarded my candidacy as s great joke, and bantered me considerably. “The old bachelors and widowers pretended to seoff at a woman running for office, on the ground that there were already too many wife- less homes. I told them that the laws of the country did not yet entitle a woman to ask a man in marriage, and that the accommodating leap year was then three years off.

ERE’S a new angle to the problem ' of the high cost of living—has the manufac.urer of a food product the right to fiz the price at which the retailer— your grocer or butcher—must sell st to you? If your grocer, for instance, is willing to sell you a can of beans, a package of starch or a carton of cereal, for 9 cents in- stead of 10 cents (which the manufa ‘urer -says he must charge in order to maintain a fixed price), that he may give you the bene- fit of @ moderate profit to himself or for the purpose of attracting your trade, ‘should he be punished by the manufac- turer by having his supply of that particu- lar product cut off? This may seem a simple problem, but tt has become one of national import, and made one man, Duke C. Bowers of Mem- phis, Tenn., a national figure, through a bil introduced recently in Congress to pre- vent price fixing. Bowers, who operates a chain of 32 grocery stores in Memphis, claimed the right to sell his own property at whatever price he chose. He did so in a number of 5 ROBLEN D.

They will not let the wholesale grocers who sup- plied him sell thewr products to him, and he Ras gone to Congress for relief, not only for himself, but for all the people of the United States. Bowers presents the singular spectacle of conducting the fight against the fixing of prices of foods by manufacturers; fight- ing by himself and at his own expense, un- aided by any combination, against the com- bined food-producing and food-selling in- terests of the country, who, he says, drove him to make it a national issue in order to save himself and the ultimate consumer. The bill presented at his instance in " both houses of Congress by Representative Charles A. Crow of Missouri and Senator Robert L. Taylor of Tennessee, is ‘‘to pre- vent trusts and combinations from con- trolling the market value of merchandise, produce or commodities.’’ It ‘has had its second reading, and ‘has been referred to the respective congressional committees on interstate commerce. ‘Its passage or rejec- tion means much to all the people who are strugcling against high prices.

UKE BOWERS first got in- to trouble when his busi- hess grew from 8 cents, the first day’s sales, to the comparatively | enormous amount of $1,028,120.11, made during his seventh ear in business.

and he eut the orm to this set ustomers and He is a big fellow, 36 years old, full of original ideas, and imbued with the fighting instinct, yet backed by a strong religious spirit, which he does not force into his Sscathene relations but which guides him in his merchandising. Every two weeks he advertizes in the daily papers of his town the eut prices which will be in — at his stores during the ensuing fort- night. Vhen he buys he sweeps the market with a big broom of cash, and p»rcheses in vast quantities. The secret of his success lies im his purchasing ability. He turns the selling over to young men who became his limited partners in the chain of stores. At first his only troubles were with his local toil and competitors, whose business, based on the average profit of 35 per cent, could not keep pace with him. They fought him by organizing against him, and then called upon the wholesale grocers, from whom all bought their stocks, for help. The wholesale grocers put the screws to Bowers as far as they could, but as his stores grew in number he became a powerful factor among the buyers.

First one manufacturer wrote to Bowers telling him he must charge the same price for his prod- ucts other grocer. were charging. Bowers ex- lained that, according to his manner of doing the fact that he was content with \ +N My i i . HH] } i - 7 4 i} } V/ () , small profits, he was sat- isfied to sell the goods in question at the prices he was advertising, which was 10 per cent, at least, lower than that charged by his competitors. Urged by competing re- tailers, and by the whole salers who were depend- ant upon the retailers fof their existence, other manufacturers wrote to Bowers to charge the fixed price for their goods or he would be refused the privilege of buying them. This sort of thing became general among the manu- facturers, but Bowers suc- ceeded iy, buying the pro- hibited goods in other cities and through other mediums than the whole salers at home, and kept on cutting the price. Bowers had come to realize the extent to which fixed prices were domi- ee ioe _s nating all classes of goods to the restraint oi competition and to tie in- jury of the ultimate consumer. He wanted to buy some electric ians for his stores, and went about among the dealers to get prices in compe- tition. He found that the prices were uniform, and that none would recede from the fixed price. The dealers told him frankly that the manufac- turers has put the price upon the fans, and if they sold them for less they would not be able to get more. , eS He learned that an optician in his city- sold glasses that cost him 80 cents for $3 a pair, when he would have been

told him’ that if he did not maintain the fixed price he could get no.more to sell at any price. Bowers by this time had succeeded in accumu- lating a mountain of letters from manufacturers of food specialties in all parts of the country, protesting against his method of doing business and all eventually refusing him the privilege of buying their prodacts through the wholesalers. He was put on the blacklist of almost every well-known and popular food product, which he had to buy by itrategy, and kept his com- petitors and the trade ha- rassed and unhappy, while his business continued to grow. He had not only the gro- cers of his own town to fight but had arrayed against him the National Retailers’ Association, the National Wholesale Grocers’ Associa- tion and the American Spe cialty Manufacturers’ Asso- ciation, all of whom declared for the “fixed minimum val- ;” which means a price which entirely eliminates competition and forces the consumer to pay the large profits. ' The manufacturers were in a manner: forced into the Situation by tie retailers. The Retailers’ Journal in April, 1909, had this to say: “The crux of the situation is that the retailer holds the whip hand, Mr. Manufacturer, in the distribution of your goods, and in .the utilization of his strengt’ can create or kill the demand for them. The grocers have now arrived at such a state of organiza- tion that the manufacturer who fails to appreciate that he must heed to their de mands or imagines the re tailer can be ceorced te dimply handing out the goods that he caflea ror is due to a rude awakening if he expecta to make the demand foi his goods permanent.” Then came the ¢ase of Grogan vs. Chaffee in California that put @ weapon into the hands of the price-fixers that made it ible for them to punish them severely. Chaffee was a retail grocer in Pasadena, Cal., Grogan a manufacturer of olive oil, on which he had placed stickers naming a fixed price at which the oil must be sold, Chaffee cut the price,’ and Grogan sued him for damages. The Svpreme Oourt of California awarded Grogan $1000, aftirming that any mer- chant who euts goods labeled with a fixed price violates a contract and is amenable to the col- lection of damages. This started what is known as ‘‘the California plan,’’ and made fixed prices all over the coun- try a eomparatively simple ——— Manu- facturer after manufacturer has begun marketing his goods with the fixed price sticker attached to the packages, and others have promised to do so. Recently The Retail Grocers’ Advocate, pub- lished in San Francisco, printed a list of goods sold on the ‘‘ protected price plan,’’ such as olive oil, eva avabea milk, breakfast foods, soap, tea, coffee, flour and canned govde. It requested re- ports of instances of price cutting, which the manufacturers promised to punish. : A grand jury in Loraig County, Ohio, inavesti- gating the cause of high prices found that there was an agreement emong retail grocers, whole- salers and manufacturers to maintain prices, tpat meant exorbitant profits to the dealers and tm- poverishment of the consumer, with the following recommendation: ‘‘The passage of a statute making it a criminal offense to boycott a tradesman or to arbitrarily — fix or attempt to fix or control the price of a f ee commodity, whether the result of a eombination of acts or a single act, might bave a salutary effect.’’ In his correspondence with boycottin facturers Bowers puts, plainer than cou to aie = price’ fixing. In a letter to a concern which had put him on the blacklist, he wrote: necessary, I am compelled to sell your 15 cents and still make what I c margin of profit. ‘(When you refuse to sell me because I will not —— we out raise my selling price 662-3 per cent, then to my mind, you commit &@ wrong. wh product are those whe suffer, be they rich or poor.

more fleet, with Dewey's thrown in. So much for the two vessels Turn now to their arma. ment. The plans contemplate a battery of 10 14-inch rifles for each ship. This weapon is by far the most power: ful ever constructed for any navy, greatly exceeding in range and hitting power the 12-inch guns with which the Delaware and the North Dakota aré armed. With a weight of 63.3 tons, it is a fraction more than 10 tons heavier than the 12-inch type car- ried by the Dreadnaughts that we now have in commission. The weight of the projectile which the new gun will carry is 1400 pounds; the weight of the powder charge will be about 450 pounds. The designed muzzle energy of the new weapon is 65,600 foot tons. To translate this into plainer English and to afford some idea of what this power means, let the reader suppose the 16,000 tons of the battle- ship Connecticut emplaced on top of the Cunarder Lusitania, whose displacement is 32,500 tons, and the biggest of the Fall River steamboats super- posed on top of all. Next try to conceive of the united weight of the three,“and the power that would be required to lift them. -The muzzle en- ergy of this gun is equal to the task. - By this

heavily armed and armored Indiana, Massachusetts is meant the energy exerted at the moment of discharge, an en- ergy so tremendous that it would be able to lift all three vessels one foot. A force that is sufficient to lift a weight so enormous as this must needs be con- Arained by metal] of tremendous esistance. The builders of the gun sve seen to it that the powder chamber in which the explosion oecurs, and the massive steel breach-block upon which the shock is exerted with the same energy that expels the 1400-pound shell through the air at a pace of nearly half a mile a second. shall be equal to the terrific strain. This is, of course, instantly imparted to the carriage, a mechanism which must, in the frac- tion of a second, tuke up and absorb a shock equal to that of a heavy engine and five Pullman coach- es, running at a:speed of 70 miles an hour, and brought to a sudden stop—a stop as sudden as though such a train had smashed into a stone wall. On leaving the muzzle of the gun, the shell has an energy equivalent to that of a train of cars weighing 580 tons and running at 60 miles an hour. This energy is sufficient to send the projectile through 221-2 inches of the hardest steel armor at the muzzle, while at a range of 3000 yards the projectile, moving at the rate of 235 feet per sec- end, can pierce 181-2 inches of steel armor at normal impact. At a range of five miles the striking energy is sufficient to cut through 14 1-2 inches of Harveyized nickel steel. The velocity of the projectile as it leaves the gun is 2600 feet a second, a speed which, if main- tained. would carry the missile almost twice around the globe within 24 hours, and to the moon and back in little more than a week. The cost of the 12-inch guns averages $70,000 each. The cost of the new 14-inch rifle has been placed approximately at $85,000. Since the close of the war with Svain the development of navy ordnance has been so rapid that the high-powered sea-borne guns of today are almost twice as pow- erful as were the guns of the same caliber of that smoke-blown period. Because of the excess- ive pressures in these later years, it is difficult to prevent erosion, and, as it would be fatal to guns to fall suddenly in battle, the life of the new type of high-powered ordnance becomes a vital factor.

These guns cannot be hastily built, and the great amount of money that they cost , would seem _ to warrant the expectation of considerable service be- fore becoming useless. One of the’ ordnance ex- perts of the navy made some calculations for the writer, which go to show that if one of these new 14-inch rifles were constantly submitted to excessive pressure, such as might obtain in a hot action, the gun could not last more than 70 rounds. The length of the gun is a fraction more than 53 feet—642 inches, to be exact. Although the muzzle velocity of the projectile is 2600 feet a second, the ordnance experts have figured that it requires one-tenth of a second for the shell to leave the gun, this because of the fact that the shell moves from zero to 2600 feet and that the mean velocity must be taken. This mean being one-tenth of a second, the actual gas life of this 85,000 weapon is shown to be only 7 seconds. Judging from the performances of the 12-inch guns, .hese greater weapons should be able to deliver three sho‘s a minute. If all 10 guns of the projected Dreadnaught should be brought into action and should maintain that rapidity of fire for one hour, the cost of the ammunition expend- ed in the hour would reach the enormous sum of $2,529,000, or about one-fourth of the vessel’s en- tire cost. With guns of such tremendous power, with its numerous magazines in which are stored in vast quantities explosives of the most violent tempers, with torpedoes and their charges of wet and ary gun cotton, the layman might well suppose that ‘he modern battleship carried within itself many elements of danger to its crew as well as to an enemy. As it is not the mission of a battleship to hoist herself with her own torpedoes, or to injure her own men, every effort, of course, has been made to minimize the danger of internal explosion. But despite these efforts many explosions have occurred, some with disastrous consequence. In the service it is well understood that fighting cannot be made a safe business. .

Is Understudy LS A TE ET LL TL TE LE ESET | NT TL CE TERT To New King of England T the beginning of the new reign in England, certain circles were agitated by the ques- tion: Who will be King George’s under- study? When King Edward was unable to at- tend a function he usually sent the Prince of Wales, or, failing him, Prince Arthur of Con- naught. The accession of King George, of course— changed all that, and as the newly created Prince of Wales is thought to be. still rather young to be thrust into official life, the question was as to whether Prince Arthur would continue to be the royal “undérstudy” at the smaller functions. It is impossible to speak of these things with any certainty, but it is understood that -Prince Arthur’ had rivals tn Queen Mary’s brothers, especially Prince Francis of Teck, but that Queen Alexandra used all her great influence with her son in favor of Prince Arthur. It is, of course, a very vague appointment, without any real existence, but, such as it is, it may be said to have been confirmed when Prince Arthur was deputed by the. King to pay the royal

visit to the Royal Agricultural Show at Liver- pool, Certainly no more popular Prince could have been chosen, for Prince Arthur has an almost extraordinary way of making ‘riends wherever he goes. This is probably due to a *ralt he has fa- , ease? a ’ . ‘~ herited from his father: he has no “side.” He is always dignified as befits a King’s representa- tive, but he is also always good-humored, al- ways keenly interested in what is going on, and always ready to make friends with everybody. This friendliness makes him immensely popu- lar when he is sent abroad, and, appreciating this fact, King Edward sent him on quite a large number of foreign missions. Indeed, King Ed- ward once suggested that he should add to his visiting card: “Monarchs understudied on the shortest notice.” He has made, one may say, a specialty of christenings. He went to the christening of the Prince of the Asturias, and had the honor of be- ing chosen to reply at the State banquet for all the assembled foreign princes, and he also at- tended the christenings of the little Italian Crown Prince and of the son and heir of the German Crown Prince. When he went to Japan to invest the Mikado with the Order of the Garter, the prevailing opin- ion was well expressed by the little Japanese lady who said to him, in quaint, broken English: “You welly nice!” In spite of his success as an envoy-extraordi- nary, however, Prince Arthur is, before anything, a soldier, and most of the stories told of him are in connection wtih this side of his work. At Aldershot, a journalist once surprised him sitting on the counter of the regimental coffee- bar, whistling to himself as he gravely counted out the coppers in the till and entered them in his account book. Prince Arthur is always very much to the fore at maneuvers, and is always cheerfully keen on going through the strenuous work and small hardships that have to be borne under canvas. During some cavalry maneuvers last year, a farmer came upon a group of officers calmly seated on a low stack of hay enjoying a hearty. lunch. Choking with indignation, he ordered them off his property, and in forcible language expressed his disapproval of the lot of them. - One of the officers laughingly tried to soothe him down, urging upon him that they were all very deserving and respectable and pointing out that among them was the King’s nephew, Prince Arthur of Connaught. The farmer was scornfully incredulous. “But, prince or no prince, off my — he goes!” Then, in a burst of sarcasm: “Dash it all, judging from the look of .you, the next thing you'd do with the stack would be to eat ft.” The Prince and his comrades left {in disorder. Except that he is not, for a royalty, particu- larly well off, Prince Arthur is one of the most eligible of royal bachelors, and his financial po~- sition would have been much more satisfactory if he had not refused to become a German in order to inherit the Duchy of Saxe-Coburge-Gotha gi" < ' , wa vate ES Ae erie Pe Ve ‘ a eka hy We ie s wa" ¢. é 7 ae ~ jet, se eS eens SCRE ort =t.

Miller of the 29th Infantry, Known as the “Demon” Among Moro Pirates, Came to Be the Absolute Ruler Over the 34,000 Inhabitants of Palawan Island and Met an Inglorious Death by Drowning---“A Regiment Couldn’t Take His Place,” Washington Declares HE Tagbanos are disconsolate, for their man-god, soldier-king, 1s dead. Salip Akib and Salip Toma, the pirate Moro chiefs, are again despoiling the peaceful and fertile island of Palawan, for was not the man they had come to fear as the devil incarnate seen to tumble inglor- iously from a boat, flounder helplessly and sink to the bottom. Lieutenant Edward Y. Miller, the gover- nor of the most outlying of all Uncle Sam’s territory and the inspired uplifter of tts people, has been drowned in the course of duiy and where is the man who wll be able to fill his place? : ’ This is the question that is facing the Philippine Government and the Bureau of Insular Affairs. This is the question that is bringing to light a piece of work that has been carried forward in the wilds of the great East that is as full of romance and ac- complishment as the most fanciful yarn even spun by the imaginatton. For Lieutenant Miller, U. 8. A., has for eight years been the absolute ruler over 34,- 000 people, wild, barbaric, unchristian. He has single-handed brought peace to those people in the place of continuous warfare. He has repelled the Moro pirates in many pitched battles, armed and drilled his, na- fives and made his coasts a place to be shunned of all else by these gypstes of the seq. Yet Miller died ingloriously a month ago from falling overboard from a boat tn the still waters of an wnland stream. #| | A Soldier- King From Illinois. HE Moros have learned of the nature of Lieut. death in an emergency s0 simple that any mere native would have been able to save himself. The fear of him and his kind has consequently vanished and the Moros are again at war. Dean C. Worcester, Ameri- can Secretary of the Interior for the Philippines, who came a little later into Palawan to inaugurate Emergency Governor Evans, was attacked by the Moros and much hlood has been shed. All is chaos in Palawan, where peace has reigned for six years. The In- sular Bureau and the Provisional Government is ine $0,000,000 Americans over for a man who can fill the place of the dead Governor-King, but with little hope of success. All of which leads to the story of Lieut. Miller. > A Moro chief grown old in piracy. He was at the time of his death a member of the Twenty-ninth Infantry, but had never seen that regiment and was unknown to its officers. This because of the fact that he had been, since the time of his appointment, on detached duty as Governor of Palawan. At the breaking out of Miller’s the Spanish-American War he had been an of- ficer in the Chicago militia and had enlisted. His service was with the Fifth Illinois Volunteer Infantry and had first taken him to Porto Rico and later to the Philippines. He served in the outlying southern provinces and his superiors scon recognized his genius for getting along with the natives. Because of it he received his ap- pointment in the regular army and his detached de‘ail. Lieut. Miller was but 24 years old when he first enlisted. Yet he left a soldier’s sweetheart behind him in Illinois, and when he received the permanent detail the sweetheart came into the wilds to him and they were married. All the years between then and now Mrs. Miller has spent at the side of her husband and hand in hand they h&ve sought to lead the way for their charges from the darkness of barbarism to the light of civilization and to better living. They have left behind a monument of accomplishment that is perhaps unequaled in the history of so small a force working for uplift. Palawan is the very outpost of the Philip- pines. It leg in that great reach of the island that runs out to the southeast, two days’ jour- ney, nearly, to Borneo, and separates the China Sea from Sulu Sea. It is a strip of land 20 miles wide and 275 miles long. Timbered mountains store the moisture which make makes its valleys perennially fertile. Its long coast line offers it- self to the spoliation of the Moro pirates whc have swarmed through those waters for cen- turies' and have preyed continuously upon their natives. The mountain people and those of th valleys are wild, but sweet-natured and simple. 4 They are the Tagbancs, good-natured wanderers for whom much hope is expressed. Yet all was chaos and war never ceated in the old days. It was into these conditions that Lieut. Miller brought his young wife. The men of the aim) protested against such exposure, but the young officer believed that he knew the natives better than they did and that he was gafe with them. IN Sa ASSN He established himself at Puerto Princesa, which had once been a Spanish town of some impor- tance but had become a deserted city of the south seas. Here he made his capital and here he began his work with the natives. The people in the immediate vicinity of Puerto Princesa had known something of the outside world through the Spanish, but their memory of ht nk ee their former masters was not: such as to encourage intimacy. But the new Governor became ac- quainted with a few and for these he began by healing the'r sick. A man of great 1.ysical strength and much energy, Lieut. Miller worked among these people immediately around him, and they soon learned that all his e-ts were for their good. They carried the storics to ‘on ever-widening circle. Soon he was able to master a number of chosen young natives {into a militia organiza- tion. These he supplied with arms and drilled. His alm was the repel- ling of the Moros. Salif Akib had long been the terror of the coasts. The natives had been fneffec- tive as warriors and the raids were at the option of the pirates. Lieut. Miller was well prepared . before he struck a blow. Then one Summer night the news was brought _—i that the pirates were ashore at a up the coast and the natives were being robbed of their stores and ani- mals. The raiders had gorged them- selves, had stolen a score of the pretty women of the settlement for barter in other ports and were carousing in the village The Governor massed his village: in reality king for them and there was no au- thority in the land but his. When a mass of people has been tucked away in a lost corner of the earth for 20 centuries and has known nothing of law and order, it does not readily grasp the ideas of civilization. An indi- vidual man and woman might exhort a consider- able influence on a few people, but “= object’ here was to uplift the 34,000. The American school has been the great in- strument in the hands of the Americans in the Philippines. In the: islands every year 500,000 native chil- dren are learning English and getting the American idea from Uncle Sam. Already vastly more people speak English than learned Spanish in the 200 years that the islands were \) \; \ i or ‘ai constabulary and crept upon the town. The Pirates were surprised, but expected an easy victory. But they had reckoned without the big American, who was a fiend when aroused. His followers had been drilled into efficiency, but were yet timid, not knowing tlieir strength when armed with American guns. But they followed their chief to battle in fairly good part. The pirates were cut to pieces and the band broken up. The American that day won for himself the title of “the demon.” The timid natives learned that they were able to stand against their he- reditary enemy. The gratitude of the whole cop- munity came to the Governor. Recruits came to his arma. The band of Salip Tomi gave the second big battle in the working out of the problems of this isolated law and order scheme. “The demon met this band under similar-conditions and the results were the same. The timid natives found that they could fight and that they liked it. They placed themselves at the command of the Gov- ernor and did his bidding without question. They came to cal] him king and his word was law. They carried the tales of him to the ends of the island and all the people proclaimed him. None would have dared stand against him, even uad they not loved him. He gave his orders as to cessation of war among the tribes and the allot- ment of land. In two years he had brought peace into the whole island and found it in readiness for his real program. The fear of his arms among the Moros became so great that for six years before his death there was not a pi- ratical raid on any part of the island. The na- tives called him king and his power with them was absolute. To all intents and purposes he was . = ~— —— SUNDAY MAGAZINE- -ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH- -AUGUST 14, 1910, £ tributary to Spain. In another decade the whole islands will be an English-speaking people, 8,000,000 strong, planted here in the southern seas. The common language will have supplanted those of the six tribes. Stiangely, these natives have the quality in them that wants to learn. The Malay mind is acquisitive—is that of the student. The first crop of teachers, native boys and girls but two years out of the brush, would hardly be regarded as classically educated in Boston, and would be considerable puzzled by the teach- ers’ examinations put on by moet of the states back home. But they began the education of their fellows and as the seasons passed they were added to by young people with more and more learning. The parents made every effoit to as- sist. They voluntarily contributed ‘beir labor to the building of schoolhouses and often materials were given. As rapidly as possible the education idea got hold and was just coming on to fruition when the Governor was drowned. But, being a practical man, Lieut. Miller knew that if the people prospered it would be through & cultivation of their ferthe soil. They were mostly nomadic, wandering from place to place. He exerted all his influence to get them to set- tle down and make themselves permanent homes, cultivating more land. The Tagbanos, or inland people, were the fa- vorites with the Governor, They were intelli- gent, tractable, musical, lovable. He determined that he would do something for these people to fix their habits and tie them to the sofl. It was — the carrying out of this plan that he lost his e, The Aborian River runs inland through a fer- tile valley near Puerto Princesa. Twenty-six miles up this stream, Governor Miller selected the site for a model colony he planned to plant. Here he would erect a school that should be an agricultural and demonstration plant. Here he would get the children of the Tagbanos to go to the industrial schoolL On. the fertile lands that lay round about he would locate their par- ents. These he would show how to farm at the same tim: that the children were attending school. He would teach them the virtues of a | ROE 9, Sg Sea Seppe: Gov. Miller told his li sional Government and secured an app with which to begin it, A little money he go a long way, for the natives volunteered to the work without charge and there was not call for the fine finish. The colony was spring drawing on toward completion and, as it was the particular pet of the Governor, he formed the habit of running up to see it every night after work, in a gasoline launch. It was while returning from one of that the launch was upset. Gov. Miller, a great, strong, athletic man, had the vulnerable point of an inability to swim. The men who knew him were surprised to know that he should drown in a narrow river. They supposed, course, he could swim. But when the boat turned over the King of Palawan, the savior of the peo- ple, the man who had started the thousands on the road to development, went unoeremoniously to the bottom and his native companions dived for hours before they were able to recover his body. So there has settled down upon Palawan the gloom of the great loss. The people mourn the death of the American as they have never grieved for anything before. The great work which he has established for them ig at a standstill] and its future is in ‘doubt. Such work requires the ge- nius of a man who fits into just such a nook, and Civil Service nor the discretion of the men high- er up is unable te iermine just what are the qualities needed,“Wecu were the man with these qualities idealist enough to give up the world to whirb he had been accustomed, to live among the people of the wild for the sake of doing good. And the Moros, these Samals or gypsies of the sea, are again at their depredations. They have thought this big American a demon, a thing of supernatural strength and of charmed life. Yet he had sunk and drowned with his boat turned over. So would all his kind. They would throw the next big American overboard and drown bim. Before a congressional committee last winter Maj. Gen. Bell, Chief of Staff of the Army, was telling of some of the remarkable men of that service and the effective work they were doing. Lieut. Miller was cited as the most prominent of these. Gen. Bell told of his work and concluded by saying: “I have heard it stated that he could not be replaced by a company, probably not by a bat- talion, and possibly not by a regiment of troops.” This was merely from the military of keeping the peace, and assuredly the island overrun by troops would not have the beneficial Lieut. Miller's body was given a . aig at Camp Jossman, near Puerto is Princesa.

N edict has just appeared in the Wiener Zeitung proclaiming that unless proof to the contrary be adduced within six months from the date of first publication, His Imperial Highness, Archduke John Napomneene Salvator of Austria, com- monly known as John Orth, well be declared legally dead. The fate of John Orth has never ceased tc interest the whole world. The general pub. ie was first attracted to him by his romance and his renunciation of all that a prince holds dear, simply for the love of a woman. The Archduke saw Milli Stubel upon the stage and t:::mediately fell in love with her. She was then'a pretty girl, of respectable but plebeian parentage. Marriage with her was impossible for him as a royal archduke, and Both he and she were too high-minded to desire a relationship that should be mere- ly meretricious. But they were so much in love that the Archduke preferred her to all his titles and his royalty. After a morga- natic marriage he formally renounced his rank and with it any pretension to succeed to the throne of Austria—assumed the simple name of John Orth and solemnly married Milli Stubel in London. John Orth went into business. He char- tered a sailing vessel, the Sainte Marguerite, loaded her with cement and sailed for Bue- nos Ayres, taking his bride with him. At Buenos Ayres he sold the cement, got rid of his officers and part of the crew, hired .a new crew, took command of the vessel him- self and sailed for Valparaiso in ballast July 10,1890. The pilot left the ship two days later and returned to shore. John Orth was never seen again, nor was his wife, nor were any of the Sainte Marguerite sailors. Ship and men simply vanished. The evidence that the ship perished with all on board is strong, but circumstantial. It és set forth at great length in the brief * which Dr. Bachrach, counsel for Archduke Joseph Ferdinand, has filed with the Grand Marshal of the Austrian court. T is almost exactly 20 years since there was any positive news of John Orth. In the meantime he has been re- ported as living in all sorts of strange places, under all sorts of disguises, but inves- tigation has always proved these reports to be false, and the Austrian court is firmly convinced that he is dead. The proceedings to have his death formally and officially proclaimed were begun by the Grand Marshal of the Imperiai Court, at the instance of Archduke Joseph Ferdinand, nephew and heir to John Orth. The Archduke Joseph Ferdinand is a son of Ferdinand IV, the last Grand Duke of Tuscany, who died in 1908, and of his second wife. the Duchess Alice of Parma. He js half- brother of the former Archduke Leopold, who is now known as Dr. Woelfling, and. of former Archduchess Louise, who is uuw Mme. Toselli. John Orth was the younger brother of Grand Due Terdinand IV and son of Grand Duke Leo- pold II of Tuscany, and of his second wife, Marie Antoinette of the Two Sicilies. So he was.a sec- ond cousin of Francis Joseph, Emperor of Aus- tria, their grandfathers having been brothers. As he was born in 1852, he would suw be 58 years old if he were still alive. The Grand Duchy of Tuscany was taken from these Austrians in 1860 and became a part of United Italy, Archduke Joseph Ferdinand is anxious to have his uncle declared dead, because the laiter left an estate that is estimated to be worth 4,000,000 crowns, or about $300,000, His will is on deposit PAGE SIX Mystery of the Strange D i¢ A shipwreck scene, showing how John Orth ia supposed to have perished in the South Atlantio with his actress bride, 7 - in the office of the Grand Marshal of the Court, in Vienna, and his nephew would naturally like to have it opened. So the Grand Marshal an- nounces that, unless anyone can prove John Orth to be alive still, his death will be judicially pro- claimed,. and he gives six months in which to produce the evidence. The declaration of his death will, as a natural consequence, carry with it a similar declaration for his traveling com- panions and for his wife, who was the Viennese actress, Ludmila Stubel, familiarly known as Mili. Orth had always been a serious-minded man and a good soldier. He wrote music and com- posed a ballet that was performed with success at the imperial opera. He was one of the inti- mate friends of Crown Prince Rudolph, whose tragic end is wrapped in a mystery that seems as if it would never be solved. He wrote, in 1883, a pamphlet entitled “Drill or Education,” in which he severely criticised certain of the practices in the Austrian army. This .got him into trouble and he was sent in disgrace to Linz. From there, in 1886, he announced himself as a candidate for the throne of Bulgaria, which had become vacant through the abdication of Alex- ander of Battenberg, but he withdrew in favor of the present Czar Ferdinand. This mixing’ up in politics annoyed the Aus- trian Government, especially as he had taken a position diametrically opposed to the politics that it was playing. As a punishment he was deprived of his command as a general in the army, upon which he sent in his resignation as an officer. It was three years after this, in 1889, that he rid himself of his royalty and married the girl he loved. There was just one thing of which he Gould not rid himself, and this was his knighthood in the Order of the Golden Fleece, which no man can resign. It was July 12, 1890, that John Orth and his wife sailed out of the Rio de la Plata; their des- tination involved going around Cape Horn. He left on shore Capt. Sodich, Lieuts. Suchich and Leva and several sailors. All of these returned safely to their homes within a short time. The ship was manned by 25 sailors, most of them Dalmatians, and a few who were picked up in South America, A few of these men wrote home before sailing from Buenos Ayres. John Orth himself wrote a letter dated July 12, 1890, to his lawyer in Vienna, Dr. Haberler, now dead. This was probably sent ashore by the pilot who steered the Sainte Marguerite out of Mili Stubel, 20 years ago. Buenos Ayres Harbor and mailed by him. In this letter the ex-Archduke complained that he hed not received any news from Dr. Haberler at Buenos Ayres: Then he referred to some pure- ly legal matters and added: 3 “My voyage was very pleasant. I am highly pleased with my vessel. The captain, falling ill, has given up the command. The first lieutenant has been dismissed for irregularities when the cargo was declared. afraid of the sea and has resigned. Now I com- mand the ship myself. But I have two capable officers, one of whom, an elderly man, has al- ready commanded on board. I am starting to- ‘day under sail for Valparaiso, passing around Cape Horn. Send your letters to Valparaiso, Chili, poste restante. “With the cordial greetings of your devoted “JOHN ORTH.” The receipt of this letter by the lawyer in Vi- enna was the last that was ever heard directly of John Orth. The Sainte Marguerite was a staunch iron ves. se] and equipped for a long voyage. Capt. Sodich says she was stored with bread enough for a year and meat enough for eight months. John Orth was a strong, wiry man, not tall, but well-built. He had passed his examinations as a master mariner, but this was his first experience in com- mand of a ship. On July 20, eight days after clearing the La Plata estuary, the Sainte Marguerite should have been about off Cape Blanco, in 48 degrees south latitude and 66 degrees west longitude. Now, on this day there was a tempest of abnormal vio. lence in this part of the ocean, and for almost a month storm followed storm in a succession that was scarcely broken. These storms are recorded with minute accuracy in the logs of 41. German ships which rounded the Horn about this time, which logs are on file in the maritime observa. tory at Hamburg. They prove that between July 30 and Aug. i2, 1890, 46 hurricanes, accompanied by storms of snow and hail, raged about those waters.

DISPATCH- -AUGUST 14, 1910, Grand Duke of ‘Tuscany, Ferdinand IV, asked the Argentine and Chilean governments to make in- quiries. Messages sent by telegrapa to all points along the coast that could be reached by wire gave no result. No vessel arriving at any South American port had spoken of the Sainte Mar- guerite. On Dec. 2, 1890, the Argentine gunboat Den- nojo, commanded by Don Mensilla, began a cruise along the coast. This lasted four months. The gunboat, drawing only eight feet of water, visited every bay and cove, cast anchor in 29 ports and steamed 5000 miles. Fina:ly in Beagle Canal, Don Mensilla learned that a vessel cor- responding in size and rig to the Sainte Marguer- ite had been wrecked on the reefs of the little ‘sland of Nuevo-Affo, in a cyclone that had last- ed from Aug. 3 to Aug. 5, and had been lus. with all on board. Basing it upon this account, the Argentine captain closed his 50-page report with the assertion that the Sainte Marguerite went down with all on board on the aforesaid date in between 655 and 57 degrees south latitude and 67 degrees west Icngitude.

eS. al ———— —— ee Ballplayers Are Subjected to a Terrific Strain in Playing in the Glaring Solar Rays RACK! Bail and bat meet and the ball sails far out info the field. As it wings its way through the air in the direction of the waiting flelders it seems to soar higher and higher before the inevitable drop. The .fielder in whose ter- ritory the tiny speck of horsehide mous almost in condemnation of the player, fails to take into considera- tion the conditions under which the fielder made his costly error. The most conservative refuses to give the player the benefit of the doubt. The is due to fall watches the ball, small - as it seems in its flight, and judges his catch accordingly. Down drops the ball and the bat-- ter who sent it on its high ‘flight is speeding down toward the first He sprints his hardest, al- though something seems to tel] him the ball will be caught and his run will be for naught. The flelder is a ‘veteran, a sure catcher, with few er- rors chalked up against him during his long career in baseball, While the runner ifs hurling the gravel from his spiked shoes on the dask down the base line the fielder - -~- — pwn . #8 hig hands raised ready to clutch the dropping ball. it strikes his gloved hand. That seems enough for the thousands of fans rooting for the fielder. The well-olled piece of baseball machinery, so to speak, seems certain to have another put- out credited to him. But @ groan goes up from the bleachers, where the spectators have a little better view of the fielder than the.fane massed in the grand stands. The ball strikes his glove near the tips of the fingers, hangs a fraction of a second and drops to the green outfeld. The flelder has made an error; the runner ig safe on first ; for once the “sure” catcher’s judgment has been at fault, yhap that single error costs the Mielder’s team the game. If so the fans are caustic in their criticism of the player. It seems to be the opinion of the crowd as it files out of the gates that the veteran has lost his grip; that his days of use fulness on the diamond in big league e ed are numbered; ip fact that _ he hes joined the ranks of the _ , mumerous He has com-

game has been lost—that is enough! Were the fielder to give an explana tion of his muff what would he say? He could explain in four words: “The sun bothered me.” doesn't offer an explanation. Thé ballplayer seldom explains for the benefit of the rooters. While his fel low players understand the cause oi the muff and sympathize with their mate it would be folly, thitkks the fielder, to attempt to explain matters to the public. Somewhat inured to eriticiem, he awaits his turn to re deem himeelf. Errors of such a nature are soon forgotten by the flickle public, which the following day may taud the same player to the skies for a sensational catch. Even Merkle, the Giants’ pare, who practically cost New ork the pennant a few years ago by his failure to touch second base ‘at a critical moment in the game has lived down his vunfortunate misplay by excellent work on the diamond since. Now and then the incident crops up' and while Merkle may never lose the name “the man who failed to touch second,” he has n applauded again and again by thousands of fans for his excellent playing. And, while in Merkle’s case there was no sun to bother him, it is much ~~ t high fi But he different in the cage of the ordinary fielder. The continual glare on the player’s eyes, combined with the heat of the day and the excitement of the game often ruins the player’s judgment when he seeks to field a y. The sun field, whichever t may -be, according to the layout of the diamond is one of the most difficult and trying positions to fill on a team. In that territory the flelder’s eyes are subjected to a continual strain. He must look up into the glaring face of a hot sun day after day dur. ing the baseball season and pick out from the fiery background the ball that must be clutc in willing fingers and clung to. And what a task it must be. We who sit and watch a game, with ever ready criticism, whether it be from a cushioned seat in the grand stand or from the sun-baked area of the bleachers, fail to realize the strain on the player’s eyes; on his brain: on his muscles. The work of the three in baseball must go hand in hand. The eye must telegraph to the brain; the brain must urge the muscles, * If any of the three fails in its duty action is halted, the action means, barring the element of blind luck, a successful or an un- successful catch. The eye, the throt. tle of the trinity of focus, must reg. ister the correct Impression of where i Si rr 7 eee SUNDAY hand around bis first two fingers to show you

The excuse that the sun bothered him is perfectly legitimate. The next time you travel in a Suburban train look steadily for a few seconds at one of the electric bulbs which light the cars. Then turn away and attempt to read your paper. The print will dance before your eyes. You will see specks and blots all over the page.

How much greater, then, must be HANS WAGNER the derdngemént of “hé clear vision of the ballplayer who is forced to face the mocking rays Of the sun in the course of his dey’s work. When a tiny spark affects our vision, the ball of fire affects the player's 20 times as much as he watches the ball on its downward flight with the sun in the background. But the fielder is not the only play- er on the team whose eyes face the sun. With the possible exception of the catcher, every man on the team hts at some time or other to cast his eves in the direction of a flery Old Sol in an effort to catch a ball. Hich files, even in the infleld, cause the players to work under the same con- ditions which caused the veteran fielder to muff the ball. It ds true, MAGAZINE—ST.

Like ing and ran continuously until 5 o’clock the next morning, when the management had to shut down to give their attendants some rest and cool off the axles of the cars. The first year the road made $60,000, when a normal season’s profits would be about a third of that amount Mr. -Briggs, who built the road, remained in Paris several months after the opening, to see that it ran properly. He is of the opinion that when the “Co-nee-ee-lan” is opened the Parisians never will go to bed at all. “Life in Paris is one continual holiday,” said Mr. Briggs. “I don’t see where they get all the money they spend on pleasure. The streets seem always crowded with just plain folks having a good time. The Englishman has his fun in spasms, on a bank holiday or Sunday, and then he puts by a shilling for fun in a park and spends the rest on beer. He is a more solitary funmaker than the t'renchman. Once in a while he will take the ‘missus and the kids,’ or maybe his ‘doner,’ with. him, but generally he goes ‘alone and meets a mate or two on the way. “The Frenchman is more gregarious; he likes lots of company. When he goes out for a day’s pleasuring he takes the whole family. There are madame and Anatole and Anastase ‘and Helie and Pierre and Francois and Jean and Constantin and Francette and Mimi and Julie and Sophie and Lizette and Marie and little Babette, the baby, nearly all the children, in fact, to say nothing of ‘Folie,’ the clipped poodle. There are always two baskets full of food, with the ends of long loaves and the necks of bottles protruding. “They have come to ride on the ‘deep.’ A gen- darme lines them up with the others and papa buys 16 tickets when he gets to the wicket, and they go to‘the starting stage. They exactly fil] a train, which consists of two cars, and one would think that an anarchist riot was in progress when papa and mamma are loading the family in. Such shrieks of injunction to hold on to their hats and the car, and Anatole is told that if he lets the dog go overboard he may as well keep going, for there will never be a place at home for him. The train is started off and goes over the first dip. Say, a crowd of American children can make some noise on a scenic, but they are dumb com- pared with a trdinload of French children and grownups.

Papa goes down ‘in his pocket and digs up 16 francs again, and away they go. The next round is the same. Papa can- not drive the children out, and off they start again. Inithe meantime, the frantic populace is waiting .at.the wicket to. get a chance at the ‘deeps,’ but papa and’, the children do not sur- render their cars until they go broke. “But it was different in England. ‘The first scenic built in°England I erected at ‘the ‘White City’ at Manchester. Later I put one in at Black- pool, a resort near Liverpool, and one at Shep- herd’s Bush, near London. At first the English- men looked askance at the ‘blawsted Yankee trick’ and did not warm up to it. But we got them started at a shilling a ride, and after the roads had been approved and had become an ‘in- stitution’ they were well patronized. “It was nothing like Paris, however. You can’t get up much enthusiasm on roast beef and beer and drizzle. Sunshine and wine and chicken make the Parisians lighter and gayer. On a ‘bank '‘oli- dav’ or ‘wake,“as they call their days of merry- making, they rode in the rain or drizzle, as the day happened to be stormy or fine. ‘Anyhow, the Englishmen generally rode the scenic with their umbrellas up. “In Engiand we had to have extra men to catch the umbrellas. When the cars started everyone would be holding their umbrellas aloft, but wien they came to the first dip they grabbed the sides of the car and the umbrellas went soaring out over the grounds like parachutes. Our men and the police gathered them up, and at the end of the ride the owners claimed them. But the En- glishmen did not stay in the cars, repeating the sensation, as the French did. Once was enough for them at a time, then they went for a ‘glawss o’ something.’ “The present King opened the scenic at Shep- herd’s Bush, and was there with his family. King Edward was the only one of the reigning family who would not take a chance on it. The then Prince of Wales and Queen Alexandra and all the

ttle princes and princesses piled nto the cars: and the keenest of e lot was Princess Victoria. “King Edward stood by the cars jollying the others and shaking his ead at their invitations to join em. if assured him that the cars re perfectly safe, and while I was alking to him and gesticulating an snterprising photographer took a snap- shot of the scene with the King and in the forefront, and it was published /Ag few days later in the London Era, and ater in the New York World. “To my urgings the King smilingly shook his head. ‘No,’ said be in a kindly eS ENJOYING RIDE ON LOWDO PASSEN GE URING A RAIN STORFT.

I suppose there was a thought in his mind that if an ac cident should happen there wouldn’t be much left of the royal family to continue the dynasty. “The English took to the seenics gradually, when they found that they were not slaughtered by the hundred. And there is where they were differnt again from the French. I don’t suppose the Frenchmen who hurried to the ride ever v whether the "Ouvetaiead had looked out for that.

SILKEN FABRICS DOMINATE carves Are Popular Decorations of the Moment Which French and , English Women Are Wearing in Lieu of Summer Wraps IN CLOTHES FOR

PARIS MODE T is quite settled tn Parisian quarters that aaving ‘serge there ia to be little else used for tailor suits but the charmeus¢ and moire, that are all silken fabrics. 1 don’t know what, the lesser tailors will think of this moVement, for the silken fabrica demand very nice handling, especially charmeuse. Moire is certainly a more tailorable material, and may be pressed and otherwise manipulated more freely. At the moment moire is very popular witb the model-making faisures of Paris. If we have the silk suits this ‘winter we shall be certain of the continuance of the ample fox fur sets of last winter. Charmeuse or moire and fox are delightful to- gether, whether -the fox be lack or silvex fiecked. It is rather difficult yet to be sure which decorative element will find favor with the silken taflor suits. It is quite pos sible they will be severe, relying only on perfect cutting and shaping to the figure. On the other hand, it is quite possible that we shal] see some form or another of braid- ing, rat-tail, or rouleau, the design always in- spired by the square rather than the curve. No doubt between midsummer and the month of October, when new ideas are introduced, the matter will be decided. Meanwhile it is enough to know that the silk materials will be most sought after along with serge for tailor guits. At the moment some of the most elegant Parisians are wearing suits, in white as well az in colored and black moire, and of all the white are most admired and considered most chic. I do not know whether a tailor- ism so elegant has yet ventured to air itself in London, suits of dark blue and tilleul moire I have met certainly, but a venture in white | do not happen to have yet Seen. RE Ce ORE CONCERNING THE SCARF. HE scarf is more than ever popular. In the daytime the scarves are of satin and crepe de chine, and of chiffon, and some- times of chiffon over satin, black over pink or over white, etc. Scarves of chiffon only are cunningly weighted with leads at the ends, so that they drag around the figure with clinging grace. This, of course, is easy when the scarf is gathered into a tassel or some other ornament, Dut not so simple a matter when the scarf has straight, free ends. In this case there is something to be said for jet cabochons—-not those of the celluloid kind, which are light, but those which are heavy, and will take the place of lead weights. Such a scarf of black chiffon or fine black tulle net, mmy be applied with some motifs of black Chantilly lace at its ends, and these be studded with jet cabo- chons. Indeed, a scarf of white chiffun or white net might very well be weighted in the same way with appliques in that case of either black or white Chantilly lace. Ca laeeatee Ore - SKIRTS SOMETIMES LONGER. T is rather an interesting question just now, the length of the skirt. The elegant evening and afternoon frock has more or less reverted to the longer skirt, but at the same time is retaining its gathered-in-at-the-knees line. At the moment, a skirt which hung in a line undisturbed from the waist would be absolutely dowdy and not to be considered, but the skirt which radiated only at a point just below the knees may be quite another matter and entirely modish. Such are the subtleties of Fashion. Truly one must have the sympathetic and inside point of view. Several quite new frocks | have seen con- sisted of a narrow tunic over an underskirt made with a measure of fullness that radiated directly it. got free of the controiling tunic. It will be this kind of controlled fullness effect we shall see in the immediate future, not any alteration from the waist outward. This draped skirt is really mounted on a very narrow foundation, otherwise it must mlfss all its meaning and grace. It. is frankly rather difficult to foresee at this moment the future of the skirt, the propositions to which we are looking forward in the late autumn. eS re Pe ae ae VESTS OF PEAU DE. SUEDE. | EAU DE SUEDE is again very much in favor, not only for gloves and automo- bile bonnets, but also for little vests, but- tons, tabs and other trimmings for our tailor-made suits. These little vests of peau de suedé are Jined with cashmere muslin and take up no room whatever under our jackets. With ou? capricious and changeable temperature they form a welcome addition, and seem to be the result of thoughtful pru- dence and reasonable coquetry. But I mvs admit that the application of this material ‘o our sunshades pleases me jess. When any - particular thing comes in fashion we generally use it “not wisely but too well.” So our sunshades are covered with a sort of cloth of dull gray, sable or fawn, which is a marvelous imitation of peau de suede, These sunshades, soberly adorned with an open-work hem, gen- erally have a horn handle dyed the same color as the sunshade. This is the latest novelty. These handles are provided with a strap of fawn or gray leather, which is passed over the right arm. Some handles have a knot of the same material as the sunshade, a long loop of which is left hanging to pass over the arm, or this loop may be of cord with tassels tipped with gold or silver. These handles are very practical for the country. ea wweesa HOW DID SHE siT? E is an episode of the Grand Prix which is very characteristic of the mode of 1910, says the Paris correspondent of Londen Lady’s Field. Two elegant man- aequins stepped out from one of our great courturiers to g0 to the wsaces. They were, needless to say, dressed in the height of fashion—tight (oh, how tight!) skirts and

immense hats adorned with feathers to match. A taxi-auto was standing before the door. The first damsel endeavored to get in. But it was impossible; her hat was too large for the door, However, after some skillful maneuver- ing she succeeded in ateering it through, but when she came to culty arose—the hat high commodated under the roof of the taxi! What was to be done? The whole effect of her toilet would be spoiled were she to take it off. An instant of hesitation, then heroically she decided, and seated herself on the floor of the cab. Her companion followed suit, and thus they arrived at Longchamps, Needless to say that the scene was a source of keen de. light to the curious and interested spectators, ‘ } é .

RECIPES FOR MAKING JAMS AND JELLIES URRANT JELLY.—Remove the stalks of some red and white currants, using two pounds of red curranis to one pound of waite currants, and add to these nine ourices of rasp- berries for every six pounds of currants; mash these all together in a basin, then press them through a napkin to extract all the juice; weigh the juice, and for each pint allow ¥, pound of sugar. Dissolve the sugar in the preserving pan, then add the juice, and cook it all over a very quick fire till it jellies, keep- ing it well skimmed; then pot in the usual way. EAR JAM.—Core but do not peel some good ripe pears, slice them, crush them well in a bowl and wring the pulp through very strong muslin. For every pound of this pulp add % pound of cane sugar, previously boiled to a thick syrup and clarified; turn the mix- ture into a stone jar, and set it in a cool oven overnight; or ele cook it very slowly on the stove till redu: to about two-thirds its original quantity. It should when ready be of the consistency of honey. Pour it into pots and cover down when cool. RAPE FRUIT BUTTER.—Remove the yel- low rind from some grape fruit; place it in brine and: boil till soft and transparent; then drain and soak in fresh cold water for two hours, after which remove every particle of white pith, and cut into thin slices. Re- move al] the pith and seeds from the fruit, and put the latter into a pan with the juice: when the rind is ready add it to the pulp with equal weights of sugar, and boi) for 30 min- utes, or until it jellies when tested. RAPE BUTTER.—Seed six pounds of unripe grapes (those thinned out from the vinery answer capitally) and throw them into a saucepanful of water on the fire; as soon as they begin to swell lift them off the fire. add a little lemon juice and let the pan stand at the side of the fire till the grapes are quite green; then turn them into an earthenware basin and leave them till cool. When nearly cold, rub them through a sieve, and stand them on the fire to dry; then stir into this six pounds of loaf sugar boiled to the “crack,” put the pan back on the fire till the butter - of. the right consistency, pot and cover own.

E ; : BABY HE babies of this day are very lucky [it- tle personages. They arrive al a mo- ment in which the excellent virtue of common sense is applauded, therefore neither made the victims of ins nar me martyrs of experiments. stage beyond the one that : erless cradles and no kisses to tye oe a nent of blameless fittle lives has been reached, and the happy medium of an occasional gentle rocking to send his majesty into dreamland, and a discreet amount of kisses to prove to him that he is welcome and beloved, is ob- served. If the Kisses are on the child’s brow or his little cheeks, so much the better, No sane adorer would desire to convert an infant’s sensitive mouth into germ trap. His wardrobe contains the prettiest of frocks and other fal-lals, chosen with the spir- it of beauty well in view as well as that of common sense. A safe foundation is a wise precaution, so instead of the tiny shirt of finest lawn that used to be stitched to his long flannel, baby has a knitted vest of the very softest wool. After many controversies have raged for

" and against the long clothes of the infant’s earliest months, the conclusion has been .ar- rived at that the mothers of long-past years did not choose the sweeping robes of their babies merely for the sake of the picturesque appearance they presented. They are warm for the tender child In cold weather and keep the burning sun from him in hot weather. So they are retained, with the long sleeves, instead of short ones, for the mothers of past generations were evidently not aware that colds are often caught by the exposure of the arms to cold in the case of babies as well as of grown-up persons, Weighty clothing finds no placé in the in- fant’s wardrobe. Baby has his magnificent cloak for state oc- casions, made of white embroidered silk for winter wear, or of finest hand-wrought cam- bric mounted upon taffetas for the summer, but a big white knitted shaw: splendidly be- ribboned is the outdoor raiment approved by many nurses nowadays. In it the infant is rolled, gold safety pins forming a fastening. Should the day be cool, the shawl] is closely wound about the little one, but if it is warm it is opened. Under such circumstances over his robe the child has on a short jacket, the quaintest and prettiest little affair maae of white sprigged or spotted muslin or white China silk edged with ruffles of lace. The nurse’s wardrobe is controlled by her employer, and in many families one type of dress fs followed as long as there is a child in the nursery. Gray is the accepted color at present, for the wearing of white dresses has been found to be deleterious to the infant's sight, owing to the dazzling effect of the white surface constantly beheld. Gray with a hint of blue in it has not this objection, and is in fact soothing and pleas- ant to the sight. \ HE canoe shape is the usually chosen type of perambulator, and very mach more roomy sizes are now made than formerly, so that thé child can have plenty of stope for ~ growing, and Iie at full length in his chariot when asleep until he is too old to | baby any more. The purchaser will discover that perambulator is far less frequently asked than it was. Gren, in a plain t or “motor car” stripes, blue in the same t ment, and a rather startling mustard shade are approved instead. and the quaint conceit stil] holds sway of matching the automobile white motor car, for the same reagon, and in the perambulator’s case an additional White does not wear so well as a color, it is not good for baby’s eyes. Mustard has not that objection, is recommended by oculists, in the blotting-paper and screens to adults with eye-glare from tlie prevailing red of a room decorated In that angry shade.

WOMEN WHO KNOW HOW TO FLY Fe. seems to attract women more

than motoring did when it first became popular. Although the sport is still iu its infancy, lusty and thriving as that is, there is already one airwoman competing at flying meetings with the great names in the annals of the conquest of the air, and there are in addition half a dozen or more promis- ing woman air pupils coming on well at the different Continental flying schools. The smallness in number of airwomen must not be taken as evidence of woman’s unfitness to fly. It is rather explained by the fact that a flying course is very expensive, involving, as it does, the purchase of a machine at a cost of from $2500 tu $5500, and there are not many women who have this capita! to invest. All the flying schools take women pupils, They pay their premium for the couise—at the Farman schools this amounts to $500—and undertake to purchase a machine at the con- clusion of their apprenticeship, that is to say, when they can fly about six miles, driving tne machine alone. Almost without exception hitherto, airwom- en, even when they are able to fly, take up a man with them in case they might lose con- tro] of the machine. Mme. de la Rothe, the dariig woman avi- ator who was recently seriously injured by a fall! in her machine, of which she lost control while in a race, is a notable exception to this rule, She is unquestionably the Paulban among airwomen. She alone is in possession of the “brevet de pilote,” the air license granted by the various national aero clubs. Hers, grant- ed by the Aero Club de France, was the first certificate of flying proficiency to be granted to any woman. She is a Voisin biplanist, and learned at the flying schools of Mourme- lon-le-Grand. She made her professional] debut at the Heli- opolis flying meeting, although she had al- ready appeared at St. Petersburg; but her first great success was won at Rouen not long ago, where she soared aloft to a height Of 400 fet. She had a very bad accident on alighting. smashing the biplane to bits, but not hurting herself. Her longest flight is about 13 miles. Before Mme. de la Roche took up flying she had motored, and possesses a high speed car, which she drives herself with al! the skil! of a professional] road racer. After Mme. de la Roche it is invidious to make distinctions. The Farman school has one very promising airwoman. Then there are Mile. Jeanne Herveu, mo- torist and balloonist, who is a Bleriot disciple with a two-mile flight to her credit; Mlle. Helene Dutrieu is a Sommer pupil, and has flown at Mouzon, and promises extremely well. One of the most noted Bleriot lady pupils is Miss Spenser Kavanegh, who went through her training at Pau and made a very good impression on those who watched her work. She is credited with the intention of trying to fly the Irish Channel. An English woman who is learning to fly is the well-known racing motorist, Miss Doro- thy Levitt, She is a Farman biplanist. Mme. Koechlin, wife of the constructor of the Koechlin monoplane, is practicing with an An- toinette monoplane, and has made several short flights in a straight line On this side of the water, a sister of the Wright brothers was the first woman to fly in an aeroplane, but she has not gone into the work professionally. Mrs. Clifford B. Har- mon has also made several flights. At the flying schools women pupils are taught in just the same way as the men. They are left alone to wander about and watch the training for a week or so, and then are given their turn on the “school machine,” rather a battered aeroplane, which is reserved for the use of pupils. They are supposed to have mastered the very simple details of working the levers by using their eyes when other pupils have been learning. At the Farman school the instructor generally takes the learner up as a passenger, and as she gains confidence lets her drive a little when in the air, but at the “Bleriot Uni- versity,”’ as the schoo] machine seats only one, the pupil has to start off on her own on a mad éareer over the ground, After one or two trials she is permitted to tilt the elevating plane and fly'a little. There is one thing about flyine which is most disagreeable, and which particularly af- feote the aspirant airwoman, and that is the circumstance that the oi] used for the famous Gnome motor is castor oi1. The smell of this buebea: vf early youth is extremely trying, “although one alrwomati gaid vravely that she tried to think it conjured up memories cf childhood, ees It is no uncommon thing to see fiving men on landing from a long flight, especially if they have the motor in front of their scat, as tm the Bieriot machine, wringing castor oil out of their clothes. This oil] is used because Mt fs the cleanest and purest of any ub-icant. The alrwoman who files with a mirro~ in aeroplane has yet to come. The only ob- ect extraneous to the wires and canvas in 3 aeroplane is, mostly speaking, a teddy , or some motor charm, such as @ billiken or a policeman, Sap There does not yet seem to be any distinct alr ion. Some pretend that the hobble ta’es its origin tn the practice of air- and women who go wp fn aeroplanes a& passeneers fastening a strap about the bot- tom of their frocks to keep their skirts from flanping, | Pe that as it may, alrwomen dress as sen- sibly as possible yet with a due regard to their appearance. They do not all have their fiving costumes made at Paquin’s, as does Mile. Dutrieu, who fifes in a perfectly cut bleck leather mechanic's dress consisting of a blouse and trousers fitting close in to the ant les. Mme. de la Roehe, who, in addition to pos- sessing a very good figure, is extremely pretty, flies in a tweed divided skirt and white sweat- er with a white weol snow-can.

Many charming Indian girls in their teens are to be seen. But one has to remember that they are married women, perhaps moth- ers of families, with the responsibilities of life already settle. for them. The. poetry of maidenhood is absent; the ehild is trans- formed into the wife without ‘hose p years of waiting and growth when the i ly knight is still in the future and ro- mance of life is still ethereal and delightful in its uncertainty. | Amongst the poorer classes it is just the same. In the villages dear little dark-eyed girls run up to one and smile, and one’s ex- | perienced guide announces that they are ma~ ~ wes trons because they are wearing bracelets abo-e their elbows. Or in the jute or cotton mills one sees little girls whom one almost suspects of being under even the low age (9 years) at which children may work in mills in India, and one is told tnat the red paint along the parting of the biack hair, is the sign that they are married. An Indian lady doctor was asked one day whether there were less child mothers now than formerly, and she replied that ste had atterded one mother of 15 that day and one of 14 the day before. The physical results of such motherhood have been attested as bad by quite indisputable medical evidence. Its cramping effects, men- tally and morally, are acknowledged as evil by the most earnest of Indian reformers. | Upon this the questions naturally arise: In . what direction are reformers in India work- . ing to change these customs whith they rec- ognize as evil, and what progress aré they making?

St. Louis Woman’s Design for a Lady Doll Makes a Great Hit--- Baby Bumps and Snookems Newlywed DividePopularity With Billiken. and Chanticleer. VOLUTION has been at work in the mafter-of dolls. The old miniature children in wax and china are out of date. Girls no longer care for them and to take their place a variety of new and attractive dolls have been broy¢ht out by the toy makers. In the American dolls there ste the Baby Bumps— which is uncannily like a real bab’y—Napoleon Newlywed, (*“Snookems’’), Miss: Biliken angett few others, while among the German dolls that are largely imported are the baby doll and the little character dolls named Hats and Gretchen, Pierre and Marie, Walter and Elise. SS Mile. Doll is as old as the firsf' child, but she has not improved as rap- idly as her mistress and a modern little lady, up to snuff in all that goes to make up present day feminine pefection, had to take her place. The result | was the St. Louis doll. ¥ : we A St. Louis woman is the mothfr of the new doll. She is Mrs. S. L. H. Slocum, wife of Major Slocum, who is now stgtioned at’ St. Petersburg as United States Military At- tache. Mrs. Slocum was formerlg Miss Luna Garrison, daughter of the late D. R. Garri- oe @ 5 Ss son, and was prominent in ac circles when the family resided in the old Garrison mansion Stee Ss Rg at 3019 Belle avenue. Althevgli she now resides abroad, St. Louis is her home, and the doll Sapa Soe Raa aaa 7 ld | SLOCUM 'S which is to be the new queen off he nursery, was modeled in this city, or at least the work was com Res: SS Mrs. Slocum was living with her husband at a military post out West when she cong-ived the § =) «#8 AADY DOLL pe pleted here. % idea of making a new doll—a creature superior to the old characterless wax object that _nildren had grown tired of; in her girlho#d days while she fondled the china and sawdust and wax creations. Santa Claus at first and et loving parents brought her, she often longed for a real lady doll, one that had real hair and real figure that she could dress as she dressed herself, and last but not least, a doll that had a rea face, not a cold, featureless, glassy-eyed creature. -In short, being a real girl, she wanted a reaf doll. ; Presently she began t® put her ideas of w hat a doll. should be into play in clay and wax Soon she achieved he¥ girlhood ideal, and then she wanted other children to share in her possession. The originfal perfected m odel was turned over.to the Missouri Glass Com- pany, toy importers, of thif city, who sent it on to George-Borgfelt & Company, New York, who in turn sent fit to their factory in Germany. Everyone was pleased with the model afmd all were greatly interested in seeing what kind : of a doll would be turned out by the German makers. The result was not of entirely satisfactory. While the new doll had an American face, most £ unmistakably it had a Aierman body. Now the doll’s motfler was perplexed. It would never do to let | == «dollie carry around so hfughty a head, such a pretty face and per- $99, wo fectly arranged coiffuye on such a clumsy body. © Well, maybe a the body wasn’t clumpy, but at any rate it wasn t the kind of a figure that @ doll with such a face and head should have. So the @pll’s mo}ther consulted with St. Louis, then with New York }and then she took a liner for Germany and visited the factory in person. At the big toy plant in SofMneberg, Mrs. Slocum personally superintended the Anakinig of figures, made sugges- tions, altered this )) art and that and finally’saw the new St. Louis dolf, body, head and all, made to her satisfiction. Thefn she went to St. Petersburg to join her husband, whjgle the factory began making the dolls by the thousand!s to fill the orders that began to pour in from the catflogued illustrations, in which the doll is described as Whe American for European trade and the Gibson for American toy dealers. The’ St. Louis doll as finally perfected and as it ywiirsoon be shown in shops in this city is about twenty inches long and has a kid body and bisque head, elbows and hands. The face is a perfect Gibson type and the wig is made from real hair and comes in the very latest coiffures. The baby dolls, which have come into such genera! household favor that they are taken by Miss Sixteen-year- old to the boarding school and there installed in a place of prominence and eminence, is a ‘‘lovable’’ little creature that baby can hug with all her might without damaging. It is made of bisque and kid. Baby Bumps, Snookems, the Chanticleer and the Billiken dolls are made of stuffed bodies and some have the rough Teddy Bear skin for the body. Others are made entirely of celluloid. These dolls are 80 genuine in ap- pearance as compared to the old-fashioned onés that the latter have been relegated most likely for- ever along with the out- of-date nursery toys to oblivion in the old trash box in the garret or base- ment. No longer will doll-face have a peculiar significance. eye ae or RA ile a aaa oe ad ERR MMC LAE f r. lees Ae hea . 3 oe ue » - » -
