GOVERNOR IS_ SILENT Declares He and Former Pres- ident Only Talked of Poli- tics and Hunting. The borrowing by Theodore Roosevelt from Gov. Hadley of a phrase defining an insurgent, which the Governor coin- ed, apparently was the net result of a 10-hour conference between the two in Kansas City. At least it was the only result given to a Post-Dispatch reporter who accompanied the Governor to Kangas City. The expression which found oacine with Roosevelt was the Governor's definition of an insurgent as “a pro- gressive who has exceeded the speed limit.”’ Greeted by Hadley. Gov. Hadley was the first to greet Col. Roosevelt on his arrival in Kan- sas City, at noon Thursday. Roosevelt showed his great regard for the Gov- ernor by shooing everybody else out 7a the car and having @ ten-minute tom with him, which delayed 8 parade. A few minutes later, while riding im the parade with Gov. Stubbs of Kan- sas, Gov. Hadley and Col Roosevelt continued their talk. The Governor -madé it very plain to Col. Roosevelt that he was not an insurgent within the close "meaning of the term, though he said he was a “progressive. - “That's right.” Roosevelt declared, “but what is an insurgent, and what is a ve.” . “Well, Colonel,” the Governor replied, “an insurgent is a progressive who haz exceeded the speed limit.” “Bully, bully,’”’ cried Roosevelt, ‘that’s fine.”” - A few minutes later, Roosevelt asked Hadley’s permission to use the expres- gion in his speeches and-the Governor told him he would feel honored to have the expression adopted. Roosevelt used it in his very next speech. Roosevelt Borrows Phrase. He brought it in while talking at a Juncheon at fie Baltimore Hotel in the afternoon. Shortly before he spoke, the orchestra pleyed, “Has Anybody ‘Heré Seen Kelly?’ A parody, “‘Has Anybody Here Seen Teddy?” was sung in the press gallery. The parody received repeated encores, : Roosevelt clapping his hands loudly and laughing with the remainder of the din- ere. When he arose for his speech he said: “Among the songs which have been Pung here this afternoon is one which evidently was written to gain knowl- edge of my whereabouts. The song, of ' @gourse, could not be improved upon, but its technique might be bettered were 2° the word ‘progressive’ substituted for "IT am equally anxious to make the gentiemen who want to mark time or Yall back to come forward as I am to _ make those exuberant progressives who . @estre to exceed the speed limit remem- Sheed they must not behave.as if the “bridle were off.’’ ; Conferences Kept Secret. oe op 8 “Roosevelt did not permit the Governar * a Sage ‘to leave him during the afternoon and a evening.

*“*He’s Just a Boy,”’ Says the Father HH elder Stuever laughed aloud when told of the politi? cal aspirations of his son. “Why,” he said, ‘‘ the boy’s only voted once. He hasn’t. had any experience. He’s too young. “But he’s of age, and if he wants to get into politics it’s his privilege. It’s up to him. Of course, I can’t tell whether he’ll succeed, but he's just a boy.’”’ Asked whether he was planning @® reconciliiation with his son, whom: he disinherited: and dis- owned, the wealthy brewer said: “Why, there’s no enmity between us.”’

BLACK CAT, EVIL ‘OMEN, CAUSES A WANCTO BE SAD Ebony-Hued Animal Crossed His Path Two Months Ago; Now He:Is-in Hospital. A black cat crossed the path of Thom- as Maher two months ago, and Friday, us a direct consequence, Maher is at tne Gity hospital with two bu!let wounds in his abdomen and another in his thigh. The shots were fired by George Voegel, owner of the cat. Voegel, who is also at the city hos- pital with a slight knife wound inflict- ea by Maher, told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that he was tending bar in Thomas Golden’s saloon, Thirteenth and Market streets, and that Maher, wh» | was drinking, becatne enraged at the ficry eyes and ominous blackness of the saloon cat. -He seized the animal of Ill- omen by the throat, put it on the bar and tried to choke it,to déath, Voegel declares. Voegel saved the cat, he says, und Maher, lying’ in wait for him outside the saloon, struck him in the eye when he started home. -“Maher is a’ bad man,” said Voegel. “Policeman Hughes of the Centra] Dis- trict met me a few days ago and told me to be careful. He had been told, he said, that Maher was making threats to kill me. So I bought a revolver to be ready for him. Shooting in Downtown Street, “Thursday night several friends and I were walking about the down- tcwn streets, and I noticed Maher was following me. When I left a billiard hall at 207 North Sixth street, at 10 p. m., Maher was standing at the door. .He slashed at me with a knife, but merely scratched me. As he raised the knife for another stab, I shot him three times.” _| Maher's hostility against Voegel was heightened. because the police ordered Thursday. He blamed Voegel, his next door neighbor, for the eviction. On July 20, Mrs, Hazel McGowan fired five shots at Maher,.who was her sweet- heart, and the police ordered the couple to leave the Central District... Thursday, when they attempted to en- ter the Pine street house, Sergt. Wade Matthews stopped them and took Maher to the Central Police Station. “I've paid a month’s rent for that house and intend to stay there,” said he to Capt. Schwartz. “You'll be arrested every time you try to enter the door,” Schwartz rejoined. Maher was extremely angry and de- clared that Voegel had informed against him in revenge for the blow, with which Maher retaliated for Voegel’s interfer- ance in behalf of the black cat.

~ FLEECE SHOOTERS BY FAKE TARGET Arrests Expose Scheme by Which “Steerer” Always Won; Customer Lost. WOMAN WAS CAUGHT ee Mrs. J. S. Reynolds Fails to Appear in Court; Bail Is Forfeited. A new scheme torn getting money has been discovered by the East St. Louis according to a report filed at headquarters. It is in the shape of a fake shooting gallery target, con- fiscated by the pdfice, by which a “barker” or ‘steerer’ for the gallery was always able to defeat an opponent in a shooting match. The targets were taken from galleries at 302 Broadway and 21 Collinsville ave- nue, formerly’ operated by John S. Reyn- olds of 1419 Pine street, St. Louts. The target, according tothe police, consisted of a sheet of steel hidden be- hind a thin blaek board. It was placed behind the real target, at which the victim aimed. Tithe “‘steerer,’’ who ap- parently aimed at the real target, shot a little above &. His bullet passed through the soft pine board and hit the sheet of steel, making it ring like a bell. There was no dhance, according to the police, for the “steerer’’ to miss his fake target, for it was almost as big as a barn door. The “sucker” was required to shoot at a target with a hole in it a little larger than a pea. Sometimes the “steerer” and ‘‘sucker’’ would shoot merely to see who paid for the shots. At other times they would have side bets. Woman Arrested for Fraud. The police arrested Mrs. Reynolds and charged her with operating a device for fraud. She signed her own bond and -was released, but failed to appear for “$n g@ dance with another man. ~ trial. Her bond was forfeited. Frank Carmody, who was acting as “‘steerer,’’ also was arrested. He was fined in police court. An East St. Louis car repairer testi- ed that he had lost $3 trying to out- shoot Carmody. Following her arrest Mrs. Reynolds wrote a letter to Mayor Cook and charged that Sergt. Tom Bos- ton, who arrested her, slapped her. She} algo charged that Boston used the shoot- ing gallery and refused to pay for the shots, 3 ; Reynolds has been having trouble with the East St. Louis police for sev- eral weeks. The records show that he has transferred the licenses for the gal- leries ‘to Eugene Bruntz, who has dis- appeared. The galleries had been closed two or three days when Mrs. Reynolds went to East St. ele and opened one of them. CHARGES WIFE HAD GOOD TIME WHILE HE COOKED MEALS; SUES Charles B.

SCANDAL Sheriff, Guard and Convict Accused of Attentions to Katie Manz. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CANTON, O., Sept. 2.—Katie Manz, i6 years old, who is awaiting trial for her life for the murder by poison of ker older sister, Elizabeth, at Massilion last spring, . was today placed under the personal surveillance of a woman at- tendant in the county jail here, fol- lowing the discovery that one prisoner and two jail attaches had fallen vic- tims to her personal attractiveness. The discovery that the young prisoner had disrupted the usual stern discipline of the jail, came this morning when Sheriff Frank Wilson, 4 years old, custed Warden: Isaac Slusser and transferred a Cletus Willaman, to a cell in the base- ment. \ Slusser immediately issued a long statement declaring that the Sheriff himself had violated his oath of office and had on three occasions taken the girl on automobile rides and on one occasion to church. The girl is held in jail without bail. The quarrel between the Sheriff and Warden began yesterday when Wil- liam’s wife, on a visit to her husband's cell, discovered that a ring she had once given him was missing. She was immediately taken to Katie’s cell and compelled her admit Willaman hav given it to her, and then forced her 1to return the ring. The county authorities fear the ef- fects of the girl’s attraction for men when she faces a jury this fall. The evidence against her is circumstantial, and the girl, deepite insistent question- ing by detectives, has maintained her innocence. The police think she mur- dered her older sister to obtain her pretty clothes. ST, LOUIS BOY I$ KILLED IN BOXING BOUT ON GUNBOAT Corporal on Des Moines Buried in Nicaragua—Body May Be Exhumed.

“SHULL OF 13 GOES TO MATINEE, FLEES WITH BOY, 18 Her Mother Heartbroken on Hearing Pair Are Held in. Kansas City.
IS IN SHORT. DRESSES Blanche Trader and Carl Jack Arrested After Absence of Several Days. A heartbroken mother sobbed her grief. Friday when she heard the news from Kansas City that 13-year-old Blanche Trader had been arresied there in company with her former schoolmate, Carl Jack, aged 18 The young pair cloped last Saturday. The girl's child- ish appearance—she wore short dresses and braided her long black hair down her back—is supposed to have kept them from getting a marriage license. Blanche is the daughter of John P. Trader of 5550A Easton avenue, head of the automobie tire department of »s large rubber firm. Trader said Friday that his wife, as soon as she recovered sufficiently from an attack of hysteria, would go to Kansas City to bring the girl home. ‘My daughter is only a child,”’ he said, “We shall take her home and forgive her and try to help her forget. The boy we shall help to prosecute. He is big for his age and old enough to know better.”’ Carl Jack and Blanche Trader were boy and girl sweethearts at the Arling- ton School. He was graduated a year ago, while she had two more years before entering the high school. Thev were openly attached to each other. and the girl’s father was willing to put him in the way of a future livelihooi. So he helped the youth to get a job with an automobile firm. Jack did not hold the job long, Trader says, and again the older man’s help was called for. Again the youth failed to “make good.’ This rather discour- aged Trader, but he decided to heip young Jack once more, and he lately got him employment as a tire repairer, The boy and girl went out together frequently, but always chaperoned, un- til last Saturday, when neither of the parents was able to go to a matinee with them. They were permitted to go alone. They did not return, and search showed that the girl’s clothes and some of her mother’s garments, and a satchel were missing. The police were notified and the two were arrested Thursday in Kansas City, INTERNATIONAL PEACE UNIONS ADOPT BARTHOLDT’S PLAN His Resolution Urging The Hague Conference in 1915 Is Passed. é BRUSSELS, Sept. 2.—The Inter- Parliamentary Union for the promo- tion of international arbitration, whose conference closed yesterday, avoided direct action on Secretary Knox’s proposition to confer the pow- ers of a court of arbitral justice on the international prize court because the convention creating the prize court on Oct. 18, 1907, has not been ratified, Instead, the sontenelien unanimous- ly adopted a resolution which while “rendering homage to the sentiments which inspired the American propo- sition,” simply urged the powers to ratify promptly the treaty “independ- ently of any question concerning the organization of a permanent court of arbitral justice.” The resolution introduced by Con- gressman Richard Bartholdt of Mis- souri, chairman of the American dele- gation, instructing each national del- egation to urge its respective parlia- ment to pass resolutions in favor of The Hague conference in 1915 was adopted.

Roosevelt, accus- ing him of “preaching reform,” and at the same time receiving “aid and comfort” from the Beef Trust and other big organizations in the shape of campaign funds, and inviting the late E. H. Harriman to a secret conference at the White House, the Colonel tele- graphed in hot haste from Cheyenne, Wyo., to the Outlook of New York, of which he is contributing editor, a spirited reply, part of which was quoted in Thursday’s Post-Dispatch. ‘Whoever wrote the article in the Evening Post knew that this was the foulest and basest lie when he wrote it,” wired the Colonel. In conclusion he said: “Of course obejection will be made to my use of this language. My an- swer is that I am using it merely SCIENTIFICALLY and DESCRIP- TIVELY, and because no other terms express the facts with necessary precision."’ Here are the opinions of some well- known St. Louisans on the scientific and descriptive use of the word “liar.” BY WILLIAM MARION REEDY, Editor of the Mirror, To call a man a liar “scientifically and descriptively’’ is to call him a Nar in the most direct way. All science is exact, and to say that a man is a Mar is to presuppose knowledge, which is science itself. In calling his enemies ‘lars, Col. Roosevelt gets right down to the bone of the situation. He eliminates all superfluities, and makes his meaning clear at a glance, and in a single word. He is the very opposite of Dr. Johnson, who, in his celebrated dic- tionary, defined “lace” as “a series of reticulations with interstices be- tween the articulations.” BY LEWIS B. ELY, Playwright, The best way to call a man a Har “sclentifically’’ is to hit him in the nose with your fist and not do it by telegraph at long range. The pugilistic science, as inculeated by the terms of the Mar- quis of Queensberry rules, is the only way to settle a question of this kind. Call a man a Har with a stiff upper- cut, in your most scientific manner, and Wee the New York Evening Post keep your guard up in case he attempts . to get back at you. Leave the “de- scriptive” part to those who witness the encounter. Hamlet was very Sesiebene: you re- member, when he was reading only ‘‘words, words, words,” but there was plenty of excitement when he struck old

DICTIONARY FACTS ON SCIENCE AND LYING ER’S Unabridged Dic- tionary gives the following definition of several words, and words allied to them, which were used by Col. Roosevelt in his controversy with the Evening Post: LIE—An intentional violation of the truth, LIAR—A person who knowingly utters a falsehood; one who lies. SCIENCE—Knowledge classified and made available in work, life, or the search for truth; compre-. hensive, profound, or philosoph- ical knowledge; art, skill, or ex- pertness, regarded as the result of knowledge of laws and principle. (“‘Literally,” says Webster, “science is knowledge,’’) CIENTIFICALLY—In a scien- S tific manner; according to the rules or principles of science. DESCRIPTION—A sketch or account of anything in words; & portraiture or representation in lan- | guage; an enumeration of the e%- sential qualities of a thing or spe- cles. DESCRIPTIVELY- -The adverbial form of descriptive, meaning to de- ities of.

Polonius with his sword behind the arras., BY THOMAS E. MULVIHILL, Former Excise Commissioner. Terrible Teddy seems to think he has a copyright on the word “liar,” and he applies it indiscriminately and often without apparent reason, when somebody happens to disagree with his opinion. Therefore, I dispute his assertion that he uses it “scléntific- ally,” because science is exact; and how can he be exact unless he is sure of his premises? He does not even use the word “descriptively,” be- cause simply calling a man a liar does not make him one, There is no more “precision” about his latest outburst than there is of calm or reason. BY E. A. NOONAN JR. Lawyer, ' Col. Roosevelt's idea of calling a man a iar “scientifically and descriptively’: is a bit puzzling to me, but he is too! good a student of the dictionary not to know what he is talking about. I sup- pose he uses the word “‘liar’’ outright, instead of prefixing it with a lot of adjectives, because the simpiest form of expression is usually the best. Again, he recognizes the forcefulness of the “short, sharp shock” of explosive monosyllables, and has always been able to use them to good advantage. His “liar’’ is akin to the “hell’’ of Vice- President Sherman and the frequent j “damn” of Uncle Joe Cannon, both of which are expressive, if neither scien- tific or descriptive. pict, portray or represent the qual-“]| Pat Carmody Thinks It Ought — to Mean ran a rigs BY W.

-Man and Wife Must Answer Charges Preferred by Pros- ecuting Attorney.
® Just because two horges, sold for the price of good horses, were so un- fortunate as in one case to get sick and in the other case to die, almost @s goon as the money for their pur- chase had changed hands, Mrs, Mag- gie Taylor will have to defend her- pelf against a charge of obtaining money on false pretenses. Assistant Ciroult Attorney Davis said Friday that he would issue informations against her, and that her husband, George Taylor, would be included in the accusation. The Taylors, who live at 2320 Carr street,.are under common law bonds of $800 each. J. C. Campbell of 1420 “Mississippi f@venue charges that Mrs. Taylor posed as a widow in an advertisement stating she had a team for sale. When he answered the “ad” Sunday, he says, the “widow” displayed great af- fection for the horses, and told Camp- bell that they had been the especial pride of her dead husband. Horse Has Heaves. He bought one of the horses for $137.50 after the ‘“‘widow” had stated that the animal was in excellent health, he said. Reaching home, the horse suddenly be- came afflicted with the “‘heaves,"’ Camp- bell said. He called a veterinary, who gaid the animal was in the last stages of the disease, which he said had been hidden by drugs. When Campbell went back to the “‘widow,’’ he says, she told him she did not know the animal was in bad health and that she was only the agent for a widow named Mrs. Meyer. She refused to return the money. Mrs. Harriett Muzzy of 4420 Henrietta street made the complaint against Tay- lor. She said she applied to Taylor for a gentle horse and he sold her one for $60. In appearance it was a prancing, fine animal, she said, but when she took it home and gave it a good meal, the horse lay down and died. When she applied for the return of her .money it was refused.

The Governor refused to indorse cago Frank when he was solicited John B. Owen, representing the . Republican organization in St. Louis. The Governor told Owen he intended to take no part in the senatorial pri- mary, and that between upobjection- able men, he would not permit his ai preference to become known. | told Owen that if any man he deemed objectionable announced for) tor he would oppose him, epublican politicians believe the Governor would have little choice be- tween Frank and John C.

The Governor does not believe, according to these politicians, that elther Frank or McKinley represents the progressive idea.

WIGGINS’ TITLE EAST ST. LOUIS ELECTION ISSUE Fight Against Ferry Com- pany Brought Into Contest for Judicial Office.
The attitude of the candidates for judge of the East St. Louis City Court toward the Wiggins Ferry COmpany and its property is being made one of the issues in one of the hottest elections ever waged in the Illinois city. Frank C. Smith, chairman of the Riv- er Front Committee of the East St. Louis Commercial Club, who has led the fight for testing the title of the Wiggins Company to the river front, opened the subject by sending out 1000 letters condemning Judge W. J. Moyers, incumbent and candidate for re-election, because he expressed a con- viction in an interview published in the Post-Dispatch Feb. 17, that the Wiggins title was a good one so far as decisions of the Illinois Supreme Court go. Supported by Mayor. Friends of Judge Moyers are pointing to the fact that R. V. Gustin, another judicial candidate, is being backed by the administration and by Mayor Cook and that the Mayor has always taken the stand that the Wiggins title is in- Cisputable. And in addition they say that one of the chief backers of a thirJ candidate, W'.. M. Vandeventer, is a di- rector of the Wiggins Ferry Co. A. B. Garrett and Edward C. Rhoads are the other judicial candidaica. At the election, which is to be held Sept. 6, both a judge and clerk of the City Court will be chosen. Thomas Healy, who has held the clerkship for 12 years, is a candidate for re-election. He is running with Judge Moyers on the Judicial ticket. Willlam Veach an‘ Vandeventer are running on the Pro gressive-Citizens’ Judicial ‘icket and John F. May, City Clerk of East St. T.ouis, is Gustin’s running partner on the City Judicial ticket. Garrett and Rhoads are running in- dependently for the judgezhip and John M. Trendley, night clerk of the Po'ice Station, is running independently for ~| the clerkship. There, are two other can-

Chamlee had asked leave to withdraw his petition for con- sideration by the American Bar Asso- ciation of charges made against Mr. Choate by John R. Watts of New York and that the association probably would take no action on the charges, made the following statement: “The charges of Mr. John R. Watts against me are absolutely unfounded and I am glad the American Bar Asso- ciation has disavowed all responsibility for them. “I have never acted for Mr. Watts or had any knowledge of his affairs, So far as his charges against my for- mer firm have heretofore comé to my knowledge, I have investigated them and found them to be without founda- tion.’’

POPULAR PRICES WILL: PREVAIL AT Towns Within 200 Miles or|Fifty Cents and $1 Will Be More Will Have Advantage | of Cheap Fares, CUPS AND CASH PRIZES Both Harmon and Baldwin Are to Be Seen in Spectac- ular Exhibitions. er _ ame Residents of Missouri and Illinois towns within 20 miles of St. Louis will see the aeroplane flights by Clif- ford B. Harmon and Capt. Thomas &. Baldwin Sept. 10, 11 and 12; arrange- ments for which now are being complet- ed by the Post-Dispatch and a citizens’ committee. The principal event of the three days is expected to be a flight along the St. Louls river front, from 6900 north to $100 south, a distance of 100 city blocks, by Harmon, on the aft- ernoon of Saturday, Sept. 10. Low excursion rates for a distance of 200 miles or more will be made by most of the lines entering St. Louis. It was planned at first to limit the rate to 100 miles, but it was found that the Frisco wanted to include Springfield. Mo., 240 miles away, and that Eastern lines wanted to extend the sone to Terre Haute and Vincennes, Ind., so it was decided not to fix a limit. All field flights, and the start of Har- mon’s river flight, will take place at the North St. Louis aviation field, east of Bellefontaine Cemetery, reached by the Broadway line. All will be free to the public. Permission for the use of the larger portion of the 1l0-acre tract owned by the Rock Island Raltlroad was giyon Friday by E. J. O'Neill, genera! agent in charge of the St. Louis offices of the Rock Island, to Edward Devoy, chali- man of the Citizens’ Committee. No ob- jection is anticipated to tho use of the remainder of the tract, which belongs to the O’Fallon and Kennett estates. The Terminal Association will be re- quested to keep ! line through the tract clear during the events. _ | Capt. Baldwin, who will return to St. Louis Tuesday, bringing his. biplane. intends to make several flights about the fleld each afternoon, and, following Harmon's flight, one dash across the Mississippi River. He will plan to make @ round trip to Granite City and re- turn Without Janding, but will have as a@n emergency landing place in Granite|& City, the fleld near the Niedringhaus rolling mill, Harmon's long flight down the Misr- sissippi, over the Merchants’, McKinley and Eads bridges, also probably will be a round trip. It is expected that he will land on the sandy plain in the rear of the east side landing place of the Cahokia ferry, and will ascend from that ground for the return flight-north. | That Harmon and Baldwin, with fa- verable weather, will make the intend- ed flights is a certainty in the minds of St. Leuisans who know them. Har- mon is @& fearless aviator, and is a wealthy man, who follows aeroplaning at a sport. Baldwin is an extremely bold air veteran, who has turned in the last year from ballooning to aero- planing, and has beer highly successful in his new efforts. He is a showman by training, and was one of the earliest of the daring parachute jumpers from hot-alr balloons. Tne Post-Dispatch will % award a gold cup to Harmon for the river flight, and a cash prise to Baldwin for field flights. The Citizens’ Committee will award a $1000 cup to Harmon for field flights, and a cash prize to Baldwin. The Post-Dispatch will pay -the rafi- road and hotel) bills of the aviators, and inciderital expenses. The committee will attend to the cost of preparing and caring for the fiel€, and for other ground incidentals.

Fifty cents and $1 will be the prices of public admission to the ten days’ aviation exhibition, to be held by the Aero Club at Kinloch Park, Oct. 8 to 18. Everyone who gets inside the grounds willbe able to see the flights, but the choicest seats in the grandstand will go to the holders of $1 tickets. At least 15 machines will be in the air each day of the exhibition, according to an announcement by Albert Bond Lambert, president of the Aero Club, at a dinner to newspaper editors and writ- ers at Cambridge Court Thursday night. “Only rain and wind of a velocity more than 25 miles an hour will prevent the flights,’”’ said Lambert. ‘‘We will try to keep something doing all the time for the amusement of spectators. There are intense moments in such ex- hibitions, and others which are not s0 intense, but we shall try to ll in the intervals with interesting features. Monoplanes and biplanes will be flown. “As our club has undertaken this ven- ture without assistance’ from other civic organizations, we shall have to charge an admission fee, but it will be 50 cents and $1, in comparison with $5 at the Eastern aviation shows. There will be Sunday flights October 9 and 148. “Five Wright machines will be seen. Le Blano, the winner of the great inter- national race in France, will be one of the contestants, I hope.” Lambert said he hoped that the pub- lic, in the interest aroused by the avia- tion meeting, would not forget that this city is a ballooning center, and that the international balloon races are to follow the aeroplane meeting. Lambert suggested that, by fostering an interest in aviation here, this city might be made the center of a great new manufacturing industry, as Detroit has become the center of automobile making. The aeroplane business, he said, is certain to be commercialized, while ballooning will remain a sport. pemrinenee

Mrs, Marshall was living at 1420 Wash- ington avenue. A month ago her hus- band left her, and after that she lived on the generosity of neighbors. Her youngest child is 6 months old ald the oldest 5 years, and it was their suffering which prompted her finally to appeal] to Sergt. Wade Matthews.

WAS OVER: LAKE ERIE Shifting Winds Made Trip Perilous, but He Lands Safely. 5 lal to the Post-Di tch CLEVELAND, O. Sept. 2—Glenn H. Curtiss flew faster than the gulls and distanced a Lake Shore train yesterday when he made his Euclid Beach-Cedar Point return flight over Lake Erie. By his own figures he flew at the wonderful speed of better than 70 miles an hour each way. Esti- mates here put the average speed at a fraction above 64 miles each nearly correct. “If I am correct, my time to the Point ~one hour and 18 mi: utes—is the fastest flight for such a distance,” he said. “I was two hours and # minstes flying down the Hudson from Albany to New York, 150 miles, York World prize. Curtiss started from Cedar Point at 2:47 in the afternoon after a brief flight over the Hotel Brewars to test the air eurrents, which had given warning of trouble. He rose rapidly to a height of 600 feet before passing from sight of the crowd of 10,000. A grain of sand in his eye, rain which assailed him in gusts and a stiff gale made high speed im- possible for 30 miles. He accelerated his speed in the last half of the flight and landed at 4:28.

IN FARES. AST OF AL ZUBMARNATE Cardinals’ Owner Fails to Land a Single Player in Drawing for Minors.
IMPORTANT HAPPENINGS AT COMMISSION MEETING ATIONAL COMMISSION refused to sanction tour of All-National and All-American teams after conclusion of League seasons. President Lynch of the National League was instructed to arrange schedule to enable world’s champion- ship series to commence as soon as possible after American Leagug-Season coneludes. One hundred and fifteen minor league players were Grafted by the major league clubs. » Almost $125,000 was deposited with Secretary John E, Bruce of the Na- tional Commission by ‘major league Clubs to bind drafts. President Hedges of Browns obtained several players by draft. President Robison of Cardinals falfled to land a single player in the drawing.
President M. Stanley Robison of the Cardinals proved the most unfortunate club owner attending the National Com- mission meeting in Cincinnati Thurs- day. He was the only magnate who falled to land at least one player in the drawings for minor league players drafted by major league clubs. Owner Robison personally attended the meet- ing, but a jinx of some sort followed him. : ‘Of the 115 ball players drafted, 67 were obtained by the seven other National League clubs, while the American ' League magnates drew but 48. President Ebbets, who is considered a lucky man in obtaining plums in the way of National League dates, fared the best of the club owners in the num- ber of players obtained. He drew 165, Two Fbbets also landed Harry Lumley, his former manager, by draft, from the Binghampton (New York State League) club. Dave Altizer, the former Washington play- ing shortstop for the Minnéapolis (Ameriean Association) team, was one of the most eagerly sought tossers. _Cincinnatt obtained him in the draw. Jim McAleer of Washington obtained ’ Dill of,.the Edmonston (Canad- fan League) ub, @ player Manager Bresnahan of ‘the Cardinals wanted. “The Detroit’ club. landed one player and is. not sure of him. He is Pitcher Skeels, an Indian, of the Regina club, Whose standing is to bo investigated. So, after all, Owner Robison may not ‘be the only magnate who didn’t land @ single player.

Plage Gept, 2.- easy to talk of a baseball war, The queer notion that the exercising of their contract rights by major league club owners in preventing players fron\ indulging in off-season playing could form the basis“for a “‘war’’ has arisen in some minds. It may as well be dis- missed, for outsiders are not going to interfere in the matter while the play- ers themselves are in no position to dis- pute any rule established by organized baseball. Pouf! Goes the Koney Bubble. S stated in this column several days A ago, the teapot tempest made over Koney could have but one end— the discomfiture of the baseball player, no matter through what means it was brought about. The National Commis- sion has stepped in and has fortunately ended the acrimony by not allowing the all-star league teams to make the pro- posed tour. Mr. Robison and other magnates, in declining to let their players take part in post-season athletics, are within their rights. They pay their men big salaries under year-round con- tracts and are entitled to the assurance that their men will be physically fit when they report for duty each spring. The chance of injury during off-season play, and the consequent endangering of the team’s make-up, are entirely adequate excuses for the stand taken by the club owners. The case of Catch- er Bliss, cited by President Robison, sufficiently attests this. The Spoiled Darlings, HE baseball player today, especially af the brilliant one, {is more pampered than a prima donna. These spoiled children of the diamond some- times have real grievances, but in a majority of complaints the foundation ig found to be mere vanity and pettish- ness, or else an unreasonable salary re- quest. The commission has been very temperate in its action against baseball players. It has overlooked, for a mat- ter of small fines, offenses that, ac- cording to the statute books, would have put mahy men of big earning ca- pacity beyond the pale of organized baseball. It has safeguarded the inter- ests of players fairly well, in consider- ation of the necessity that exists for trust methods of preserving the organ- igation. ae In the main there & but Ifttle that could help the player that has not been done, except the Quixotic lifting of all the “chains” which prevent his being at all times a free agent. The last is in- compatible with the keeping together of successful team make-ups and therefore can never come to pass. Gracious, goodness; ,There goes Fred Beebe “‘coming back!” We thought that incident was closed. Homes for Demented Referees. FTER the present football season is over the asylums for the harbor- ing of soft gray matter, and dis- ordered tmaginations will do an over- time business. No, it is not the player who is in danger; nor eke the worried coach. But a state appropriation for the care of unbalanced officials will cer- tainly have to be made, to be observed by the referee that if he had the hundred eyes of Cerberus, could run the hundred in “even time,” and had @ reserve set of boots for more important cases he might be abie to pass acourately on half of them. Al- together too much is asked of this in- dividual in the matter of judgment of distance and the legality of plays. As it stands now, the referee Will have to

She just doesn’t seem inclined to flirt with this ardent suitor at all, for the past ten years. At Cincinnati, Thurs- day, she calmly turned her back on Robison and smiled on Hedges. She geve Hedges ‘“‘Lefty” George, a player Robison had long been angling for and whom both had asked for in the drafts. Also Robison did not draw one playcr, which is rather bad luck considering the degree to which Robison, Bresnahan and company need men. ‘The old dame is a coy bid; but once she starts to be} kind, it’s all off with your rival. So bide awee, Stanley, and keep coaxing her.

Goodwinand M c Dermott Best in River Tryouts
“I wish we had thought to give Good- win a note to deliver in St. Louis say- ing that we would be down there some time later in the evening,”’ remarked one fof the men in the launch which was following the swimmers yesterday after- noon during their tryout for the big 10- mile Labor day event... The paddlers included Hall, Bunks and Kaiser of Missouri Ath‘tetic Club, Good- win of the New York Athletic Club, McDermott of the Central Y. M. C. A. of Chicago and O'Neil, unattached, of St. Louis. AlJl dove off the launch about two miles north of the Merchants’ Bridge and swam down the river to the foot of Elm street. Michael McDermott of Chicago showed he is a powerful young swimmer. Most of the way down stream he kept far enough away from Goodwin not to be swamped by his waves, Banks showed up in the best form of the M. A. C. representatives, and when he was not performing vaudeville stunts his easy, but powerful,. strokes showed what he could do when in earnest, O’Neil, the . unattached, also showed great form and undoubtedly with an- other season’s training will make thsm all sit up and take notice. Goodwin Wants That Cup. Goodwin seemed a trifle peeved when he learned that the cup could not go into the possession of the man that won it, so when he dove in he immedli- ately hit for St. Louis and left the rest of the hopefuls far behind. After he had gone about a mile he felt much Ketter and waited for the other boys to come up with him. All the swimmers used the crawl and trudgeon strokes 9]! the way down stream except when rerforming Weber and Fields stunts for the benefit of the men in the launch. The men will go out again this after- noon for another short try-out. Another entry recently reserved by Dr. Bassett of the 'M. A. C. is Charles Schrimpf of Cemarem Canoe Club of St. Louls. He was formerly a member of the Central Y. M. C. A. and in 1908 he took fourth in the Labor day event and ninth in 190%. This year he has been training in the Meramec Rivervand feels confident of making a good show- ing.

ATION OF YORK ClTY IS 4,766,893 ‘a’s_ Greatest City 3; Pace With Sisters; icrease 38.7 Per Cent. ASHINGTON, Sept. 2—New York r has a population of 4,766,883, ac- ‘ing to the figures made public by sana Durand, Director of the Cen-
mn 1890 the component cities of the ‘esent Greater New York had a pop- tation of 2,507,414. From 1830 to 1900— uring which decade the consolidation Was effected—the total increase was 929,788, or at the rate of 87.1. From 1900 to 1910 New York City’s
population increased 1,329,681. The rate per cent of the growth was 1.6 per cent higher than for the preceding decade, or 88.7. ' In maintaining this rate of growin America’s greatest city has kept abreast of practically all her lesser: sisters in the United States. The general average of increase expected from the first and second class cities of the Union is in the neighborhood of 40 per cent. Of the five boroughs comprising New York City, Manhattan leads in actua! inhabitants, as well as in the increase. Manhattan has now a population 0? “.,901,542. A majority of the New Yorkers of the present day will live to see their city outstrip London and become the first city in the world in p pulation, ac- cording to Acting Mayor Mitchel, who bases his prophecy on computations of the comparative growth of the two cities for many years back. The probable growth of the two big- gest cities of the world is estimated by statisticians at an amnual ratio of 3.8 per cent for New York and 1.6 per cent for London. On this basis the fu-
ture population is as follows: London. 7,500,000 &,750,000 10,210,000 11,200,000 11,910,000 5468 POPULATION INCREASE IN ROOSEVELT'S HOME TOWN WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.—The follow- ing Illinois figures were given out at the Census Office this afternoon: Dix- on, 1910, 7216; 1900, 7917; decrease; Byron City, 1910, 932; 1900, 1015; decrease.

What will the other Clothiers give you innew Fall Suits at $12.50? Ask them. That’s the way to find out. They’ll hem and haw and tell you that woolens have gone up—that the price of labor is higher—that the new tariff prevents their giving you this or that—and when you sum up all their excuses, you’ll find that they are wrapping up in your package a cotton worsted or a shoddy woolen suit with very little real tailoring in it, and indifferent style. It’s not their fault entirely— they’re giving you facts—but not all the facts. They should add that they must make their big profits at the opening of the season to pay for their big rents, big expenses, costly fixtures, free trading stamps, etc., and that’s why they must give you cotton mixture suits. Here we give you all- wool, pure worst“, finely tailored Fall Suits at And what’s more—they’re made by two of the best clothing manufac- turers of America—David Adler & Sons, of Milwaukee, makers of the celebrated ‘‘Oollegian’’ clothes, and Leopold, Solomon & Eisendrath, of Chicago, makers of ‘‘Sophomore’’—‘‘Her Brother’s Clothes’’—suits that are chock full of style, good wear, good tailoring, and good looks.

IMINISTERS SCORN PASTOR'S IDEA UF ~ PLAYING MARKET “Good Thing He Quit Church,” One Says of the Rev. Mr. Arthur. MIGHT HURT MEMBERS!
Case Is Cited Where “Tip” to Dominie Ruined His Parishioners.
A word spoken in du iti Provera, eo @ season, how good is n Say unto you, make to friends of the mammon of cafglttabemen Luke, 16, Even with two familiar Scripture texts seeming to uphold his position, the Rev. S. E. Arthur has not suc- ceeded in persuading St. Louis minis- ters that they would do well to solicit “tips” on the stock market and other forms of investment from wealthy or well-informed parishioners, and to eke out their small salaries by safe specu- lation. The Rev. Mr. Arthur, former rector of the defunct St. Mark’s. Episcopal Church, has left the ministry to go into the insurance business. In an interview in Thursday’s Post-Dispatch he urged that business men should share their tusiness information with their pastors, so that the latter might add to their mands made on them. “Buy pork” or ‘sell Reading’’ might prove, he believes. to be the Scriptural ‘‘word in season,”’ if spoken by a man who was “‘‘in the know.” Could Get $400 or 8500. ‘Almost any church,” says the Rev. Mr. Arthur, “contains members who have it in their power to aid the min- ister by giving him tips on safe invest- ments, and almost any minister could get $400 or $500 to invest in ways that would help to piece out his usually meager salary.” The Rev. Josephus Stephan of the Mount Auburn M. E. Church, when asked his opinion of the suggestion. said: “T think it is well that the man who makes this suggestion has left the min- istry. Such a proposal’does not seem to me to be in harmony with the true ideals of the ministry. , “No minister should have any* other purpose than to preach the gospel. If he does that, I have found by expert: ence and observation, he can depend on his people to support him. The idea of speculation on ‘tips’ {s not befitting @ church member, to say nothing of a minister.”’ Wouldn’t Spoil Rest. The Rev. F. J. Hart, pastor of the Olive Branch ~Congregational Church, said: “T think we are asking enough of tho inaymen now, without requiring them 10 give financial ‘tips’ of doubtful value te the clergy and to lie awake worrying for fear the tip they have given will turn out badly. “That requirement would be harder on the lay tipster, if he were sincere and conscientious, than it would be on the minister. ‘Most business men I know would hesitate to adopt such a sugges- tion. “Some ministers are well paid, some are not well paid. Perhaps some get less than they are worth, but water gen- erally finds its level. One man will get along well on $1200; another, whose wife likes Paris gowns, wiil have a hard time on @ much larger amount.” Would Ruin Parishioners. A minister who,’ because of his ac- quaintance with the Rev. Mr. Arthur. did not wish to have his name pub- lished in connection with his statement, said: “The minister who would go around among his rich parishioners looking for tips on the market would soon have a fine state of affairs in his church. If the minister prospered in his invest- ments, poorer parishioners would soon begin to watch him and invest their little savings accordingly. Sooner or) later the crash would come. Such cases are not unknown. We have all heard of the big Wall street operator who gave a clergyman a ‘tip’ and that the clergyman would pass on the ‘flp’ to members of his parish. The minister lost everything he invested, and true to his promise, the financier promptly gave him a check to reim- burse him. ‘But what about my parish- loners?’ asked the distressed pastor. ‘Ah,’ said the financier, ‘they were the ones I was after.’’’ MEXICAN COMMISSIONERS HERE Will Represent United States at Centennial Celebration.

THE HARMON-BALDWIN FLIGHTS. In perfecting arrangements for the Mississippi flight of Clifford B. Harmon on the afternoon of September 10, it. was discovered that the fields where the start and the first landing will be made are ideal. The low water is an unusual advantage ‘and the aviator will have the benefit of ground as clear and flat as that of the sands at the sea shore. The river itself, instead of being a drawback, is another advantage. It is a preferable place for an unintended landing. The spectators will be highly favored. The population of all the cities on both sides of the river can dispose itself along the levee without erowding. There is 15 miles of river front available from which to view a per- formance which promises to be as spectacular as any ever made. Only accident or intolerable weather conditions will forbid the flight. The stunts of Capts Baldwin promise to be as sensational as Harmon’s. Capt. Baldwin’s impres- sion of the site was so favorable that he is eager to try it and will probably make numerous trials before the time fixed for the big events. With two skilled aviators on hand, there is no doubt that St. Louis will have some real flying on September 10, 11 and 12.
— Mr. Roosevelt says he is a progressive, not an insurgent. Insurgents, we believe, are those who oppose the main thing. = = = —- = = READY FOR PEACH. Out of the welter of graft stories and scandals that make up the bulk of the news from Illinois in these days, there comes a gratifying assurance that the prolonged coal strike is in a fair way to be settled to thesatisfaction of all concerned. It appears a basis of agreement has already been reached, and negotiations as to terms, conditions and details are expected to be harmonious. While a settlement of the controversy with a prompt resumption of work under almost any circumstances, would be beneficial to general in- dustries, there will be a special sense of satis- faction over the announcement that the miners are to get an increase of wages. It is but fair they should do so, for there has been a rise in prices all along the line, and wage earners even more than producers and manufacturers, have felt the pressure of the increased cost of living. This strike, although of long duration, has been on the whole well conducted and orderly. If now it is to be concluded on a basis that will give honest satisfaction to both sides, the public will have good cause for congratulation. Modern society cannot live without coal, so labor and capital alike will be glad to see the output begin again. a

Signor da’ Annunzio boasts that he has revived ‘thousands of words that had fallen into disuse and given new meanings to many others; a record too much like that of an American dictionary maker to be thought much of in this country. La hi —_— -— ww THE EFFEOT ON THE CROWD. ’ Upon laying the cornerstone of a structure for the Young Men’s Christian Association at Beverly, President Taft remarked upon the curious fortune
that has attended him in such matters. He has laid. cornerstones for Y. M. C. A. buildings in Dayton, in Omaha, in Seattle, in Shanghai, in Hong Kohg and in Manila» Thus as an official cornerstone layer he has come near to girdling the globe, It appears, however, that in almost everything Mr. Taft does, something happens to detract from the gravity of the occasion and his own personal dignity. In this case the President instead of being called upon to make a few perfunctory. strokes with a trowel, was actually required to spread the mortar upon a stone three feet by four. at would be easy for a mason-on a cool day with nobody looking at him; but for an un- skilled man on a hot day with a crowd watching him, it was too much. The President reddened at his task and the people laughed. Meantime, far away over at Osawatomie a short- necked ib and twist sort of a man without per- sofal. dignity was prancing on a table shouting at the top of his yoice to make a Kansas holiday. The dispatches tell us: “The crowd was so great that only'a small part could hear what was said, but: they. all cheered.” So there you are. There is a dignity that gets itself ‘langhed at, and there is a swagger that draws cheers. Perhaps it is the personal equation; perhaps ‘the psychology of the crowd. It doesn’t amount to much agp but it may be dan- gerous on election
It ts eqid that Mra. Kila Flagg Young, Chicago's able Superintendent of Public Schools, is not tn favor of much home work for children. She be- Heves that if school work is made more practical, the duties of the home will complement it instead of being @ hindrance. Home work is a bugbear to ‘the pupils in some of the gradés of the Sst. _ i - . Louis ‘schools. Too much of it tends to make tO.sap-the stamina of the. chil- 0 Efyonane mare ge in school hours WORDS, WORDS, WORDS! Whether establishing a new rule of conduct for ex-presidents and showing how they may be guides, counselors and friends of the people, or paving the way for a dictatorship in which the fundamental law shall be bent to the dictator’s will—whether working unselfishly and patrioti- cally or selfishly and demagogically, Mr. Roose- velt has put into spoken words the principles to which a vast majority of the American people will respond. From his general characterization of the strug- gle as one “to gain and hold the right of self- government as against the special interests,” to particulars and specifications he shows all his wonted power to touch the popular fancy. He speaks forcefully. He has the dramatic touch in written as well as in spoken word that impresses the reader or hearer with his own earnestness. He has the trick of emphasis, and when the reality of importance is added, what he says becomes tremendous. Unfortunately it is only the actor’s art—the mountebank’s skill where boldness of attack and force of presentation befuddie for the instant and the illusion of sincerity is created. Are we to take Mr. Roosevelt as a newcomer into the realm of forensic politics? Are we to consider him as an unknown making his first déclarations to an admiring people? In neither biography, history nor politics are we justified in limiting analysis or yielding to rhetorical charms. Mr. Roosevelt has a long public, record. His performances must be con- imaaie with his promises. What he contemplates can be seen clearly only in the light of what he has achieved. His new motives must be read in connection with his old ones, : Except in regard to the tariff he said practically nothing he has not said before. The tariff is a subject on which he was eloquently silent for seven years. And on the tariff he is not at all convincing. He dismisses the livest and most im- portant issue of all by weakly indorsing Mr. Taft’s foundling scheme of piecemeal revision under the directions of a tariff commission. Mr. Roosevelt’ is not insurgent on the tariff, and the tariff is the basis and.cause of all insurgency. He is no more convincing In other respects. It is unfortunately true that the robustness of his @emand for numerous reforms is offset by some act of his own which contradicts his spoken word and often makes it ludicrous. He demands the elimination of special interests but he consented to a moral violation of the law whereby the Steel Trust swallowed ' Tennessee Coal and Iron, and so connived at perfecting the ultimate monopoly and power of one of the most specially favored of an the specially favored in- terests. He demands complete and effective publicity of corporation affairs, but it is of record that he re- fused to hear ‘proffered evidence of Sugar Trust perfidy whose ultimate disclosure was followed by fines and penalties aggregating more than §$5,- 000,000 and the conviction of several men for crime, He demands effective laws to prevent corpora- tions furnishing funds for political purposes, when he himself is one of the greatest offenders in collecting such funds and a particular benefi- ciary of them. ‘He demands that responsibility for corporate law-breaking be personal, but he himself white- washed Paul Morton against whom attorneys of his own selection favored criminal proceedings. The obvious value and importance of other recommendations suffer impairment with those enumerated. They are matters which he ad- vocated many times in messages to Congress. Some of them have been partially realized. and others are certain of ultimate realization when the impediments interposed by Mr. Roosevelj’s own party and many of his warmest friends and supporters in it can be overcome. But his noble resolves have fervor even if their force {8s cur- tailed by their inescapable suggestion of embar- rassing events in his own official career. Reading the words we pause to admire. Reading the record behind them we wonder if they are any- thing more than words, words, words. = = = Be aie ile, i gc Now that Kansas has finished sicvitvine her “battle against Missourians,” it may be just as well to remind her that the Missourians won

That is the sum of the fortune a man who was twice President of the United States leaves for the support of his widow and his children. In any land on earth a man born in poverty, may by force of character, aided by good fortune, rise to high eminence; but the United States is the only land where a man who had once at- tained such eminence would retire after years of power to comparative poverty. The position of an ex-president of the United States is at best an embarrassing one. ever be the simplicity of his life, there is a certain dignity he must uphold. He should not be com- pelled to return to the arena where men strug- gle for existence. There should be provided for him a retirement of honorable estate. Grover Cleveland never asked it. A man as rich as Roosevelt does not need it, Nevertheless it should be provided. There is. indeed a proud sense of national honor in the consciousness that a presi- dent of the United States leaves no fortune be- hind him; but it would be better if we also knew that his service to the public entailed no poverty to his widow in old age. hh i — eS As against Mr, Roosevelt's sweeping accusation of deliberate mendacity the New York Evening Post is able to produce a long and honorable record of unselfish devotion to sane methods, a studied regard for the truth and an unprejudiced adherence to it..

} LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE ———— Gamb Is Gam Te the Editor ef the oa ow Bo ena Without any prejudice, I would like to ask why gambling in various forms is permitted at church fairs and deemed a misdemeanor if’ in- dulged in by private individuals. If I attempted to operate a wheel or a fish pond for my own benefit the law woulq intervenes yet at lawn sociables and Coliseum bazars various forms are allowed. The Post-Dispatch did a grand work in suppressing gambling on an excursion boat, and I want to know why under the cloak of religion, children even are admitted to games of chance? Is the chief of police so one-sided that he can’t see the difference? Is gambling on a church lawn different from gambling on the deck of a steamboat or in a clubhouse? Does the end justify the means? FAN FAIRFAX. The Long List of Drownings. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. It is indeed with much regret we note the drowning of another in the Meramec. However, it is to be regretted that the beautiful stream is so often and so unjustly made the object of attacks. When a drowning has occurred in the Meramec, why is it that such proniinence is given to it in the papers, while a drowning in the Mis- sissipp! receives only the slightest notice? Can & place be found that is frequented by many people from week to week, who bathe, swim and canoe in the waters, that does not have its ac- cidental drownings year by year? Kindly take into consideration the numbers that visit the Meramec every week, its proximity to St. Louis (inviting the unskilled upon its waters) and the numbers and skill of those visiting other water- ing places throughout the country, and see for yourself if the five victims of the Meramec this year is not small in comparison with the number of drownings in other places? ONE WHO LIKES THE WATER. The number drowned in the Meramec to date is 10; in the Mississippi, 11. The Post-Dispatch has dealt with all cases impartially, giving the news as it developed—Ed. Post-Dispatch. American English. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. EF see that your reporter states that Countess Brenzoni speaks English fluently. I am inclined to think that she must have learned it in St. Lcuis, for the reporter quotes her as saying: “I feel like I ought to keep,” etc. P. 8. M. Work for Civic Betterment. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, A. H. G. says he will vote the Socialist ticket hereafter, but says he wants to see a half-dozen municipal ferries before he’ll vote for the “outer park system.” East St. Louis has estdblished an “outer park system,” therefore to desire many municipal ferries is laudable. If we adopt an “outer park system” East 8t. Loufsans will want a half-dozen municipal ferries. I hope A. H. G. will vote the Socialist ticket and that all Socialists will vote to their own in- terests, thus making an “outer park system” an assured fact, which makes toward the object for which Socialism exists, L oe, to benefit the people at large. The power that put the “outer park system” afoot has accomplisheq establishment of public playgrounds, public. baths, vacation schools, school gerdens, systematic tree planting and other pub- lic improvements, while it is still working an important hygienic improvement of downtown dis- tricts as well as the “outer park system.” Get in line boys; join the civio league in their Socialistic endeavor. Honest Americans, rich or poor, as to money, are not so far apart as to purpose, G. 8. For a Fine Zoo. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your article “Public Fund for Zoo,” is very timely. Some time ago I wrote to your paper along these same lines and called attention to the fact that one of our citizens (Mr. McMillan), who is sojourning in Africa, presented Roosevelt with a fine collection of skins and remains of animals to be presented to the Smithsonian In- stitution. Now I think with a little persuasion this former citizen could be prevailed upon to gather up a fine collection for his native city. I would suggest that your valuable paper take hold of this matter like it did with the old Post-Dis- patch lake and the same would be brought to a speedy consummation. I would suggest that this fund be secured through the school children, each one to furnish the small sum of 10 cents and each one of these to secure as many more dimes from their friends and acquaintances as pos- sible. I’ll venture to say with your paper back- ing up this worthy scheme, St. Louis would have in short order one of the finest zoos in America. JULE A, MARTIN, { Manufacturing Outlook in Ireland. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I see by your paper that a gentleman from Ireland ig here in St. Louis—the best place on earth—to learn the shoe manufacturing business, with the fntention of establishing that industry at his home If the Engiish Government should feel toward the shoe industry after having been established as it did toward the woolen industry when at one time there were more than forty thousand people engaged in the manufacture of woolens in Ireland, then the outlook would not be bright. As it was with the woolen so was it with the fisheries and boat-building industries— just as soon as it came in competition with the English brother’s business then and the Parlia- ment would be appealed to and the finale was little by little acts were passed that by degrees put the Irish back to where England has always wanted and ons Ireland—an agricultural country. LANCELOT, Treatment of Ex-OConvicts. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I see “Cake Eater” takes issue with “Pie Eater” in reference to the detectives hounding ex- convicts. One of Pinkerton’s best men is an ex- convict. “Cake Eater” acknowledges he is an “ex” and has never been bothered; he may have influential -relations or friends who have saved him. If “Cake Eater” thinks I do not know what I am: talking about I will refer him to such men as Gov. Charles P. Johnson, Judge Ed- ward A. Noonan, Judge J. R.

Major Harrison, who was one of the best de- tectives and also police chief often said to his men: “Go after the game fish; you will be of more service to the city.” PIE HATER. BACK TO THE FARM: From the Springfield Republican. Back to the farm? The census returns which come dribbling out from day to day indicate that all the talk we have had on that subject must look to the present decade for results, not to the one just past. Michigan, for example, shows a population increase of 889,191 or 16.1 per cent for the last 10 years; while the aity of Detroit alone gained over 180,000, and 266,000 of the state’s total increasé is in the larger cities whose figures have so far been published. The
Tother cities will doubtless locate most of the re- maining increase, leaving to the agricultural towns. little or no gain at all. And a fairer farming region than Michigan does not exist, Michigan’s population gain from 1890 to 1900 ~wae 15.6 per cent, against the present 16.1 per cent, while in the decades of 1880-1890 and 1870- 80 the gain was respectively 87.9 and 88.3 per cont ee, ms aire LS age? ° t ‘3 oa SAP ee eS ae — ‘es eal

a A STORY OF GRANT AND SUMNER, From Goldwin .Smith’s Reminiscences in McClure’s Magazine. Pitchforked into the presidency by the passion of the Americans for military glory, Grant, being totally without political experience, of course, failed. The only political quality which he had was resolution, which he once at least opposed, un- der good advice, to dishonest and mis- chievous legislation. He had a fatal notion that supporting public delin- quents of his own party was stand- ing by comrades under fire. Between this rough soldier and such a man as Charles Sumner, with his high- stepping culture and lofty self-esteem, antipathy was sure to be strong. Some one, to please Grant, was decrying Sumner to him, saying that Summer was a free-thinker and did not even believe in the Bible. ‘Well,” said Grant, “I suppose he didn’t write it.” Wellington, between whom and Grant there was some resemblance, also once in his life said a good thing. When he appeared. at the court of the restoration the marshals of the em- pire turned their backs on him. The king apotogized to him for their rude- ness. “N’importe, sire, c’ese leur habi- tude,” was Wellington’s reply.
AN “EDITORIAL VISION.” From the St. Louis Times, ; The air-lanes above the Mississippi River will always be the most acces- sible place for the aeroplanists in St. Louis, when that species of recreation- seeker reaches this city, as he must sooner or later. In another decade or two, when flights are being made regularly by that class of people who formerly kept the fast- est horses, and who disposed of their trotters when the automobile arrived upon the scene, there will be no end of opposition to indiscriminate ‘“‘cross- country” flying. But there will always be comparative safety in the aerial fields which lie above the waters. In St. Louis an aviation course has been mapped out along the Mississippi, from a point near O’Fallon Park to another point on a line with Pestalozzi street. There will be, as nearly as one may predict, a series of flights between these two points within a short time. And it does not seem improbable that the time will come when this course will be the scene of much aerial festiv- ity, and recreation, and rivalry.
Hig Pride—Her Dust. From Exchange. . ‘Your marriage to this plebeian American heiress, my son,” said the Countess de Broque, “will humble our ancestral pride in the dust.” ‘That’s all right, mother,” rejoined the titled son. ‘She has agreed to fur. nish the dust.”
But Will He Believet From the Springfield Republican. The scheme to make Mr. Roosevelt the Republican nominee fer Governor of New York and then bury him under an enormous adverse majority is being too well advertised in advance. Mr.

JUST A MINUTE, — pmeageennenemectece Written for the Post-Dispatch by Olark “McAdams. IN THE FALL OF THE YEAR. AREWELL to Summer—the year is fast aging, The spirit of Autumn is come to the dells, And the soft-piping cricket is sadly engaging The gathering ‘dusk with its plaintive farewells. O, blest is the season when summertime closes, And fair is the earth in the mellow and sere, O, sweet is the breath of the fast-dying roses, lI marks we are by this time able to make
In the Fall of the year. In the Fall of the year, when the birds that have thrilled us’ Are mute and disconsolate deep in the trees, And the soft-blowing leaves that have tested and stilled us Are drifting away on the crest of the breeze. O, sad are the woods in their innermost bowers, And sad is the heart holding summertime dear, O, drooped are the heads of the withering flowers, In the Fall of the year. In the Fall of the year, when the sun jg soft-beamifig Through faint phosphorescence enveiling the sky, And upon the brown hillsides the sumach igs gleaming As blooms in their beauty soon coming to die, O, swift are the geese in their clamoroug warning Of the rigors of Winter too soon to be here, O, soft is the sun on the bright wings of. morning, In the Fall of the year. Saaeeeneemneine eee ol FROM OSAWATOMIEF. The more one hears of Gifford Pin- chot, the greater that gentleman’s pop- ularity becomes. The former chief forester is about the finest individual- jged instance of our independence of which we have any knowledge. We are told that when he got up to speak on the platform at Osawatomie, not- withstanding Mr. Roosevelt had just spoken, the first thing he said was: “This is one of the biggest moments in the history of the United States,”’ It takes a brave’ man to share a speak- ing platform with Mr. Roapsevelt and insist that the occasion of his own re- marks is one of the biggest moments in the history of the United States. DIFFERENTIATION. From Mr. Roosevelt’s scattered re- out that there are threé kinds of jour- nalism: 1. Mendacious journalism. 2. Yellow journalism. 3. Journalism. *Mendacious journalism is journalism that does not agree with Mr. Roosevelt. Yellow journalism is journalism in be- half of the people Journalism is journalism in his behalf. If nothing comes of the promise that the Illinois coal strike will be settled this week, how would it do for the mine owners to step aside and let the consumer see what he can do?
The consumer is the man who will the increase anyway if

Where It Shows Most women suffer much humiliation because of great quantities of fat, so located that, no matter how they dress, everybody sees that they are abnormal. This is the day of the slender figure, and fat women are simply not tolerated either in business or social affairs. Women may not know it, but men when they see a fat women pass them on the street or in. public places make all man- ner of sympathetic remarks about her. They do not mean to be unkind or to seem unmanly, but it is natural for @ man to dislike fat on a woman. Where fat shows the most there is where it must be -removed, and as quickly as possible. This season's dresses seem to be made for the fat woman's misery and the slender woman's delight. They expose all the charms of woman and her ugliness as well. Exercise and diet will not remove fat.

Railroads from. now on will show unfavorable net earnings and trad- ers believe that a heavy decrease in gross business can be expected with a number of weeks.
