The alliance is composed of ministers of various denominations, the Metho- * dists, Baptists and Presbyterians hav- ing the largest representation. The Mpiscopal clergy are not represented in the body. The manner-in which the resolutions Jhdorsed prohibition was considered rather roundabout by some of the more radical advocates of the amendment, and some desired that it be made more direct. | The preamble of the resolutions states that the value and efficacy of prohibi- (ion have been proved in places where it has been adopted, and the body of the reselutions then pledges the ministers to work unceesingly against the liquor traffic. The preamble and resolutions are as follows: q “Knowing as we do, and as all well- ‘Informed people must know, the value and efficiency of prohibition laws af- fecting the liquor traffic, where such laws have been passed, and further hav- ing the direct testimony of men of high character and unquestioned integrity, living in. cities and states affected by stich legislation, concerning effectual enforcement of prohibition laws, along with other laws ae¢ainst criminal con- duct, @nd knowing further as we do that “brewers and distillers everywhere know- ingly and willfully co-operate with the most disreputable characters in the sale of liquors in violation of the law and. - the expressed will of the majority .of the people, thus becoming open and avowed violators of the law, with ex- pressed determination. to continue suth ‘“rtions of the law, knowing as we do ings, Therefore be it ved, first, That as ministers ting the -various Protestant ; of St. Louis, we deplore the f leading citizens of our great an organization- known as the] .

BARNER IS HE FOR INQUIRY IN DANVILLE MURDER Politician’s Horse Declared to Have Been Used to Take Woman on Death Trip. ANIMAL GOES TO SPOT Bruises on. Owner’s Body Are Explained:as the Re- sult of an Accident. By an Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. DANVILLE, Ill, Oct. 31.—Fred Garner, son of a politically prominent family, was arrested here today by Sheriff Hel- mick in connection with the investiga- tion into the death of Mrs. Elsie Coch- ran, who was found shot to death in an open field Friday. \: The Sheriff's action followed the re- eae of the police to arrest Garner on The Sheriff acted without a but on instructions from the State’s\.Attorney’s office. The Assistant State’s \Attorney says that Garner is “held fdr investigation.” Since Mrs. Cochran’s body was found in an open field’ last Friday evening, beaten and shot, much of the cumulative information gathered by the authorities has gone to show that the horse and buggy were Garner’s. He says that if the rig was used thé night of the murder he- did not know it. Garner, who is a member of a family prominent in politics in Danville, was held for a short time,-earlier in the day, but was reléased on orders from Chiet of Police Schaffer, who said there was no evidence. then on which to hold him. Bruises on Garner’s Sody. While in temporary custody Garner was taken to the office of State’s At- torney John Newman. There Garner was stripped. Two fresh bruises were found on,his body, one on the right side of his chest and the other on the abdo- men. In explanation of these; he said, that he was driving home in his buggy Fri- day night, the night after the murder, and that the buggy struck a telegraph pole, throwing him forward against the dashboard. It was in this collision with the telegraph pole that a shaft of thé buggy was broken, he said. “Garner is about235 years old, 6 feet tall and weighs 190 pounds. When a Post- Dispatch. reporter asked@tim for a state- ment Monday he said: “Lll,not talk about this case. The State's Aftorney has my written statement.” “T have no written statement from Garner,” said Newman, “Garner..made only -a verbal statement, in which «he said that-he was out with his buggy Thursday night, that he returned home at 10:30 p. m. and went to bed and that if his buggy was used later that night someone must have taken it from the stable without his knowledge. He said that he did not know Mrs. Cochran.” Motorman Tells His Story. Motorman A. J. Brown, who lost his position a week ago because of his at- tentions to Mrs. Cochran, says that he last saw her Thursday afternoon. She told “*him that she had an engagement for that night, but did not say with whom. Deputy Sheriff. Harry Coit, who was ‘formerly a horseshoer, examined the tracks in the field Sunday and said that the horse which made the tracks wore a shoe of peculiar and unusual design on its left forefoot. A shoe of this type was.found on the left forefoot of Gar- ner’s horse. —S—S——SS—— Republic .... * | - Sunday advertising Bulletin 187 October 50 Total Columns » ost=-Dispatch -......287 ““lobe-Democrat .......207 BP RSO A Goes 5 & | Post-Dispatch Excess Over Globe-Democrat .... 80 Cols. @,- Over Republic ..:.......170 Cols.

HUSBAND ON’ STAND Tells of Planters Hotel Epi- sode and His Wife Is Sum- moned to Appear. Mrs. May Louise Powell introduced C. City Chair Co., as her sweetheart, ac- cording. to the testimony of a witness Monday in Judge Muench’s court, James L. Powell’s suit for divorce. Powell is a wealthy railroad contractor, in with offices in the Missouri Trust Build- | ing. The witness was Mrs. Robert Milli- gan of 5098 Delmar boulevard, who knew the Powells well when they were living at 6100 Deimar. She safd she chanced to meet Mrs. Powell and Ekfelt down- town two weeks ago, and that Mrs.. Powell said to Her: “Mrs. that my sweetheart.”’ Harry F. Dumm of 2785 St. cent avenue, Milligan, is Fred Ekfelt, Vin- another friend of the Powells, told of a meeting between Mrs. Powell and Ekfelt last April before the Powells were separated— at the Missoufi Athletic.Club. Seen Dining Together. “I didn’t know OBEkfelt at that time,” ) he said, “but subsequently learned his name. He was standing in. the «clubhouse, at the entrance, and attracted nervousness. I wondered what was the matter with him, and watched to see what he would do. Presently Mrs. Powell, whom I knew well. came in. They greeted one another and then she saw me. She started, and took Ekfelt with her behing the screens near the door. Later I saw them dining together.” Powell told in detail the history of his wife's acquaintance with Ekfelt, so far as he-knew it: He said it began last October, according to his wife’s state- ment to him. One day last July he was leaving the Pierce Building, he said, when he saw his: wife get off a street car and entered the Planters. He folé with Ekfelt. “Ekfelt rose and, moved a few steps away,’’. he testified, “‘but he said noth- ing. I asked my); wife ‘to leave that man and go with me: She walked over to Ekfelt’s side, and declared that she loved him and would not go with me.” Powell told:’also of going to Ekfelt’s office and trying to persuade him to let Mrs. Powell alone. “‘He assured me he would never try my attention by his ' |Sarah Bernhardt, the Ever-Y oung, as She Looks Today at Ses Seven WN R= BIDDING ce CA PTA] Baye ae GOO PROT? 5 AMERIC AM PRESS ASS LOBSTER COMES 10 TOWN LOADED WITH BARNACLES; Also Carries a Supply of Clams, and Despite Name it’s a Live One, .' to communicate with her again,” Powell ' wife promised me | testified, ‘‘and my not to accept his attentions, but it was only two days later that I found them at the Planters, as I have said.’ Returns to Find Wife Gone. Returning last July from a business trip, Powell found the Delmar boule- vard apartment empty, and the furni- ture gone, he said. He testified that he found his wife had moved to 6021 Fair- mount avenue, and that when he called on her there she said she was inter- ested in Ekfelt, and wanted nothing more to do: with him. : A barnacle-encrusted lobster, on exhi- ‘bition in a show-window at 414 Frank- lin avenue, is the object of curious scrutiny by passers-by. Clinging to the crustacean are hundreds of sea-para-, sites, some of them as large as a mar-% ble. . W. A. Meletio, general manager of the Meletio Fish and Oyster Co., which received the lobster alive last Saturday in a shipment from Rockland, Me., says he has never seen or heard of such a phenomenon. Lobsters usually fight off ‘Has there ever been any effort at reconciliation between you?" ) Judge Muench asked. . “Yes, sir,”” Powell replied. “I filed} suit for divorce last August, and also} a suit for $20,000 damages against Ekfelt, but on my wife’s promise to have nothing more to do with him I withdrew both suits. We lived to- gether for a. time,-and I found that she was still going with him. So I left her and renewed this suit.” . Judge Muench directed that a sum- mons be issued for Mrs. Powell, who was not in court, to appear Tuesday. He will hear her testimony before deciding the suit: First Suit Filed Aug. 1. Powell's first alienation suit was filed Aug. 1, and he filed at the same time a suit to divorce his wife. The charges in both actions were the same. Powe gave an interview the day after he filed the suits, in which he said he believed Ekfelt had hypnotized his wife... Declaring that he believed Mrs. Powell innocent in intention, Powell said Ekfelt had systematically pursued her for nine months, until she could no longer resist. He told of a meeting between him and Ekfelt, in which, he. said, he actused Ekfelt and exacted a promise from him that he would discontinue his attentions to Mrs. Powell. But two days.-later, he said, he found them together at the Planters. A day or two after filing the suit, from his Wife, asking if she couldn't use his automobile. He sent the ma- chine to her, and when she telephoned to thank him made an engagement to také her driving that evening. They: had dinner together, and he began to think he had made a mistake in filing the suits. After a short time, during which there were frequent meetings between them, he withdrew both suits, and went to with his furniture on Puirmount av- enue.

The most serious problem that Wil- liam Bergmann, a Granite City salebdn keeper, has to deal wjth is Mrs, Buena Vista Hinkle wife of one of his ‘best customers. Fresh air blew into Sisicubiiaait s bar- room Monday through nine shattered panes of glass, the results of a borfi- bardment of the place by Mrs. Hinkle Saturday night. Her reason for adopt- ing Carrie Nation methods was that her husband, Perry Hinkle, had made the igaloon proprietor his banker instead of taking his wages home. Two weeks ago Mrs. Hinkle appeared at Bergmann’s place while her husband was enjoying a social glass with some boon companidéns. In her arms she car- ried a number of hts personal belong- ings. These articles she dumped in a heap on the floor, declaring, “My husband spends all his time here, and he might as well live here and done with it.” Tried to Joke About It, The husband tried to pass the matter off as a joke, but Bergmann said he didn’t care for that sort of jokes at his place. Hinkle continued to visit the sa- ibon as frequently as ever,.and last Sat- urday afternoon he gave Bergmann $15 to keep for him. When he got home Mrs. Hinkle asked for money and was told that the family cash was on deposit at Bergmann’s. The wife went to the saloon and demanded the money, but the saloon keeper re- fused to give it to anyone but Hinkle himself. She went back and tried to get her husband to go.with her for the money, and when he refused, she re- turned and made a second demand. This refused, she ‘went.outside and began throwing stones through the windows, Would Not Prosecute; The customers fled into a -back room, expecting that bricks would follow the shower of stones, which broke one win- dow after andéther and rattled around the mirror and the glassware. Berg- mann went out and drove the woman away. He decided later not to prose- cute her, and shé was not arrested. CALIFORNIA ISLAND 1$ BURNING Grain and Peat Are Ignited by. Electric Power Wire.

Mois-' sant, an American compéting with Gra- hame-White of England and Jacques de Legseps of France, won the greatest race of modern times yesterday in an @eroplane flight from Belmont Park, on Leng Island, around the Statue of Lib- erty im New York harbor and back to ‘the. starting place, where 25.000 Ameri- gans in a frenzy of patriotic enthusigsm] i.e, way, and naturally it was much} gtormed the [little Chicagoan with pro- ‘longed cheering, threw hats, coats and even field glasses into the air and ended the demonstration by wrapping the tri- umphant aviator in the flag. of the United States and carrying him off the field with a howling crowd behind hir. The race was for ‘$10,000 offered by Thomas Fortune Ryan. The- enthusiasm was wilder because Moissant's victory came suddenly, unex- pectedly, when the great crowd had set- ’ tled Into the belief that Grahame- White, winner of the i:uternational racing cup had captured this second and greater honor from the field of American and French fliers. The remarkable Englishman, starting after Count de Lesseps, had neverthe- less beaten him back to Belmont Field He had won over De Lesseps by more minutes. He had in 100-horsepower Bleriot ‘sailed the 33 #42miles with all its obstacles and dangers in @ little over 35. minutes. More than an hour bad passed after Grahame-White, returning, had stood on the judges* platform before the dstand, re- ceiving a victory’s accl tions, when the announcement came that Moissant / would start in the Statue of Liberty rece. He got only a half-hearted salvo from ‘the crowd as he departed.

Within a few hundred feet he brought his -machine to a level, and riding -evenly. and. accur- ately, it shot across the white tape line under the judge's eye. Standing beside the wreck of one of his machines, which had come to grief in the morning, Moissant told of his wonderful flight in the machine that he had bought for $10,000 from Le Blanc, in order to enter the race at all. “Y started from Belmont Park,” he said, “with the wind against me. It was a biting, icy wird, and I climbed higher and higher as 1 went along. This { did purposely, for; by climbing, two objects were accomplished. One was to make as much speed as possible, of course. By slanting upward in going against the wind it is apparent that much of, its deterring force is broken. The other reason was that I had made directly over the city dof Brooklyn. ‘I was safling very high when I rounded the statue. My baragraph will show that_I was 2805 feet in the air at that time.

FLYERS SORRY CUP RACE | WASN'T HELD IN ST. LOUIS

Aviators Say Wind, Is Too Choppy on Atlantic Coast and Conditions Here Are Better Gener- ally for International Contest.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—St. Louis is the best place in the United States, if not in the world, to hold an international aviation meet, according to the aviators who have taken part in the contests at Belmont Park. | | | The flyers, especially the foreigners, are indignant at the conditions they have had to meet here. Aside from the fact that the prevailing winds on the Atlantic seaboard, in sharp contrast to those of St. Louis and the Middle West, are an obstacle to aviation, the birdmen are criticising the way in which the Aero Club managed the first interna- tional meet in this country. made flights in St. Louis and in the Middle West claim that it would have been much wiser had St. Louis been chosen, especially at this time of the year, when“ winds along the. Atlantic Coast are so high and treacherous for haeroplane fiving. Le Blanc, who was France’s st-onges; hope for winning the Gordon Bennett speed trophy. was the most arden: to protest that the place selected for the international. aviation meet wag unfair for an event of that character. Le Blanc, who is the-greatest track racer with an aeroplane in the world, had run an almost perfect race Satur- day en, after the nineteenth lap, while speeding at the rate of. 80 miles an hour, his machine collided with a telegraph pole which was about 200 feet to the right of the course. He had predicted that there were too many obstacles to permit an aviator to feel safe at Belmont Park. Added to the ‘bad course was the high wind which the race had to be flown in. Le Blanc, who made rome very successful aero- plane flights at St. Louis before taking part in the international balloon race from that city, said today that he found conditions in the Middle West almost -i@eal for flying. ' Better Weather at St. Louis. “T think it would have been much better if the international aviation meet had been held at St. Louis, where I made flights under favorable condi- tions,’’ remarked Le Bianc. “I ‘should think, judsing from. the surrounding country and from my personal experi- ence, the weather conditions are more suitable at this time of the year at St. Louls than around New York.

Those amung the aviators who have? “Why, I think that amost any place think also that St. Louls might -have of- “Why, the management here has in the West, I find. “My experience in St. Louis was a very pleasant one, and I made one of the most daring flights I ever attempt- ed in an aeroplane. The fact that there was a high wind blowing at the, time was forgotten as soon as I start- ed my flight. Then, too, St. Louis has plendid grounds for an aviation meet. Certainly the next oné should be held there.”’ Moissant Favors St. Louis. John B. Moisant, the young American who through ¢pluck and courage saved the day for the American aviators, was also of the opinion. that St. Louis might have made a better place for the meet. in the. United States would have of- fered better conditions at this: time of the year than New York,” explained Moisant. “Not that I would deny New York an aviation meet, but because the Americans want a chance to keep the cup in this country. Their chances were not helped any by the location of the aerodrome where the meet was held. I fered a good place ‘because the Post- Dispatch and the World are offering a $30,000 prize for a flight from St. Louis to New York. This 1000-mile cross- country aerial trip could’ have been made a grand climax and finale of the meet if held in the former city. “Naturally an aviator woul: want to start from the west if he undertook to win the -$30,000 prize. The prevailing direction of the winds would make such a choice preferable.”’ The Wright flock of birdmen said they fouffd weather conditions in St. Louis very good for flying and that’ they found the people so enthustastic about aeroplane flights that it was a pleasure to fly there.

Ghetto Resident. Didn’t Know of Closing Order and Suffered Discomfort. | Jewish grocers in the Ghetto organ- ized Monday te oppose the enforcement | of the law which requires grocers to close their stores at 9 a. m. Sunday. Al Blank-ef 714 Carr street, leader of the movement, says the organization, gage Attorney Simon S. Bass to fight the closing law. The ground on which enforcement will be opposed is that the religion of Jew- ish grocers requires them to keep their stores closed on Saturdays and that if the Sunday law is enforced against them it Will be necessary for them to suspend business two days every week. This, they say, would be a great hardship. Many ‘persons in the Ghetto district did. net. know that the law would be. enforced Sunday and, according to’ Blank, hundreds of families had to go} threugh the day without abe necessities of life. Many Homes in Under the Jewish church law all places of business must close at sundown Fri- 1} day .and remain closed until sundown Saturday,- the Jewish Sabbath. Thinking that the stores would be open Sunday morning, manr in the dis- trict did no shopping Saturday night. Kerosene was one of the commodities | of which there was a shortage because of the enforcement of the Sunday clos- ing law. Few houses in the Ghetto have gas. Many of them were dark Sun- day night. Jewish dealers base their opposition to | enforcement on a decision handed down by Judge Pollard of the Dayton Street Police Court, who holds that it is not right to foree Jews to observe the Chris- tian Sabbath if they comply with the [ tenets of their religious and keep their places ,closed on Saturdays. Police Report Names. Acting on a request from the City At- torney the police Monday reported all groceries that were found open after 9 a.m. Sunday.

FOR DIVORCE ARGLS PRIEST WED UNDER ALIAS Reno Plaintiff Against Louis T. Hare Declares He. Is the Rev. Louis T. McGinn, {TELLS OF COURTSHIP Details of Alleged Secret Marriage and Separation Recited in Plea. the New York ost-Dispatch. . 81.—Alleging that T.. Hare, is in ‘reality the Rev. Louis McGinn, for years widely known as a Roman Catholic priest in Brooklyn,\Mrs. Helen F. Hare will sue for divorce this week in Reno, Nev. The plaintiff, whose father was Hendrick Haste, a wealthy butcher of Brooklyn, will charge desertion and non- support. Mrs. Hare’s story of love and bitter- ness is stranger than any other the Reno courts have divulged. It begins 30 years back, when she and her husband were pupils in St. Joseph’s parochial school, Green Point, and runs on through his the priesthood at St. John’s College, Brooklyn, to his appoint- ment as assistant pastor of St. 'An- thony’s, Green Point, in 1895, and his assignment to the Church of St. Mary, Star of the Sea in Brooklyn in 1900. All this time Mrs. Hare says their af- fection for each other continued and on Nov. 3, 1903, the priest persuaded her to go with him to the home of the Rev. Dr. Frederick Mortimer, rector of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, by whom they were married. Because of his vows, she adds Father By Leased Wire Fro Bureau cf the McGinn assumed the maiden name of his’ mother and she became Mrs. Hare. Makes Brother Confidant. Mrs. Hare went to live two blocks fron’ St. Edwards Church, to. which Father McGinn had been transferred One night her younger brother discov- ered the priest in her company. She took her brother into the secret and pledged him to keep the knowledge to himself. To avoid detection by her other brothers and her aunts, her parents be- ing dead, Mrs. Hare moved to another part of Brooklyn after a baby girl was born. There she lived until May, 1904, when the relations that existed between her and Father-McGinn were disclosed in such a way that they were brought ‘to the attention of Bishop Charles E. McDonnell. einen anannceabeil took immediate ac- tion, Mrs. Hare says. On May 14 her hsuband received $100 and was placed aboard a steamer for Europe. He went by direction to a Trappist monastery in Ireland and remained for several years. Then he returned to the United States. being sent, Mrs. Hare says, to a parish in the South. How long he remained there she does not know, but she be- lieves he is now somewhere in the West. In Brooklyn it is said he came back for a visit, not many.months ago. Father McGinn won a wide circle of friends m Brooklyn. When he left St. Edward's unexpectedly his parishioners were told he was going into retreat in Ireland. Hendrick ‘Haste, Mrs. Hare’s father, owned much property in, Brooklyn. GARLAND’S TO ENLARGE “AND OPEN BRANCH STORES

By Associated: Press. ‘ACAPULCO, Mexico, Oct. 31:—From the descriptions given by a detective agency, it is believed that two of the men who were arrested on their ar- rival here Saturday on the schooner Kate are Wilson B. Evans, absconding teller of the Farmers and Merchants Bank of Los Angeles, and H. Hamburn, an. alleged accomplice. It is said that $11,000, which has been recovered, is part of the money taken from the bank. The arrest of the men has been taken up by the Mexican Government with Washington. The. Kate came into port for gasoline, and three passengers, giving the names of Harry Ham, O. Carlson and Dan Archer, were held on the theory that they might have been implicated in the ployed at the

dynamiting of the se eer rr Building. The sum of $11,000 was found on the boat. - The gaptain, Swan Enkdethe, and Adolphoson, the engineer, Were placed under guard. The captain said he had been.engaged to take the schooner from San Friincisco to the Galapagos Islands, off the coast of Peru and Eeuador. He was to be paid $730.

1 FATHER ‘PENS AGANG PROHIBITION LAW Tells St. Margaret’s Congre- gation State-Wide Measure ~ Would Bring Evils. Before a large congregation at sol- ermn high mass Sunday,-the Rev. J. J. O’Brien; pastor of St? Margaret’s Catho- lic Church, preached a sermon against prohibition, to. which, te said, he Is absolutely and unconditionally opposed. “I have pérsuaded: huntreds of men to quit drinking and sign the. pledge,”’ said- Father O’Brien, “but I did it through kindness, morai suasion and argument. They saw themselves that they were doing wrong, and that they were injuring their health and were un- fair to their famflies. This moral sense of right and wrong is-the only thing that can make men quit drinking. “Most of the people who are advo- cating the violent way of making peo- ple quit drinking are some ol¢@ spinsters that can’t get husbands or an army of other women who have driven their husbands to drink through neg- decting their household duties by going out and taking the prohibition stump all day and evening.” Lege!

DISPATCH. “THEGIV’ SA RE-ENTLESS PLAY OF BOLD REALISM It Proclaims the Immutable Law That “the Wages of exp in Is Death.” —— wee fe GRIFPINGLY DRAMATIC Its Dominant Figure, Han- nock, the Drug Fiend, a , Creation of. Horror. S ie : i & By RIPLEY D,. SAUNDERS. eT. HE ‘CITY,’ which struck horror nf, that saw it at the Garrick last » 1s a melodrama of power.so un- deniable as to be significant in the his- | tory of the American stage. . It is, unhappily, a convincing proof in big achievement that the untimely death of Clyde Fitch was a far °greater loss to the theater in this country than had been thought kt even the most ardent velievers in the. nius and possibilities uf this vastly prolific and curiously un- certain maker of plays. | For in this work Clyde Fitch has qual- ified as an earnést master-craftsman wno Knew the use of the medium in which his message must be expresseu and who had a sincere message to which he gave a potently gripping expression. It is not alone that he has placed upon the. stage, in the figure of Hen- nock, the drug fiend, a shuddering crea- ture so helplessly enmeshed in the re- lentless weaving of Fate’s web as to ve worthy of Ibsén’s blackest mood in j the drawing. Hannock, although he dominates the play and remains monstrously in one’s memory thereafter, is but one incidental feature of its story. He stands as the embodied curse that fell upon the fam- ily of George Rand, village banker and “whited sepulchre’’ of mock virtue, in | punishment for a sin of George Rand’s youth. But it is in the merciless marshalling f the full consequences of George tand’s secretly rotten soul-fabric, long veneered by material success and bogus espectability, that the heretofore almost unsuspected strength of this play’s |} author ds found. Ww ith : appalling logic the truth is taught that the penalty of sin must be paid,. not only bythe sinner himself: but: by hose who stand in lineal descent subject >» the iogical consequence of that sin. This is the dreadful justice of life's ‘wn teaching. And there is but one glimmer of sht pointing to the way, not of escape | the selfish. meaning of the word, but f a consistent relief by explation in e shame and suffering necessary to ercain the firm ground of good for vet that-have become mired in the bog of evil. Here, too, and most sincerely truth- ‘yl of all the play’s lesson, does Clyde ‘itch reveal that comprehension of life’s tegest teaching necessary to genuine- v great work in drama. It Is at that moment almost immedi- itely preceding the fall of the last cur- ain when he makes George Rand Jr., ac- ept completely the curse invoked by: is father’s sins and resolve’ upon the ucts of confession, restitution, repent- ance and right living that alone can cleanse him of his sinister inheritance by giving him a receipt in full for the payment of his father’s terrible debts. That the younger Rand has fallen heir to the elder Rand’s moral crook-' edness and lust of reputation at the secret sacrifice of character makes all the more consistent his final turning to right things. The inexorable law which declares that ‘‘the wages of sin death” has been. smashed home to him beyond all doubting of its immutable grapes its operation in the pitiful death of his father, slain by sudden dread of the exposure of his criminal oin i agg ‘tt in the blight that rested upon the life of that father’s illegiti- mate son, his own halfbrother. He saw it in the sin and shame of one of his sisters, hurried into harlotry by the seductive life of the big «city to which the family had removed from the | village where the father had gained his wealth through crooked banking. He saw it in the unhappiness of his mother, pathetically bewildered, trivial, lonely and homesick in that city exist- ence for which she was 80 pitifully un- ed. oe saw it in his own Case, all the latent moral weakness of his nature brought into full flower by that bigger urban tempting which he was helpless to resist. And suddenly, most awful of all, he} saw it in the appalling marriage of Hannock, the drug fiend, to Cicely Rand, half-brother wedded to half-sister—the marriage which resulted in the: swift killing of Cicely by Hannock that she might not tearn the truth of their dread- ful blood- kindship. And it was in this overwhelming ac- cumulation of tragedy that the younger Rand saw, additionally, all that was ‘eft for him to do. ‘Clyde Fitch gave to his play its only consistent and helpful end- in le playing of the play. as I have al- ready sald, is dominated by the work of |Tully Marshall as Hannock. Mr. Marshal] makes of this role a “horror creation’’ that, once seen, may never be forgotten. He held last night’s audience shuddering in its clutch. In ‘the awful s@cond act, with which he vanishes from the play’s story, the act. that culminates in his killing of his half-sister wife, he sounds a note of ter- rible realism that places Hannock among the dread creatures of Ibsen’s presentment. The one error of Mr. Marshall’s committing is found in his response to the curtain calls at the close of this act. He should not again. be seen when once that act has reached its ending. A bowing and smirking Han- nock at the footlights is an unpardon- padie sin against good art. The remaining ee ego By of the play’s JeastP are admirably taken.

NAT GOODWIN AT THE CENTURY. “The Captain,’’ the George Broadhurst and C. T. Dazey -farce-comedy, with Nat C. Goodwin in the title part, which began a week’s engagement at the Cen- tury Theater Sunday evening, has much of genuine humor with an occasional resort to slapstick tactics that robs it of some of its effectiveness, The play starts with a really funny and well-conceived first act, moves smoothly and pleasingly through the second and then talks its comedy to tat- ters in the closing scene, The main story of ‘“‘The Captain” is a tale of the American occupation of Manila. “A. captain is injured and in trouble, and his friend, in the person of Nat Goodwin, takes his place, posing as the army captain. Va- rious amusing complications arise, little love-scenes develop, a marriage takes place and several heroics are indulged in. It is chocked so full of meat that the full ‘third act is required to dis- tribute the finishing touches to the many episodes. The play might have been improved by leaving something to the imagination of the audience. The ‘two settings of the play are as tastefully arranged as could be desired, with a touch of tropical beauty. The supporting company includes Charles Lane, Dodson Mitchell, Sidney Braecsy in the more important male roles, and Beatrice: Morgan, who makes a capti- vating young widow who wooes the bo- gus captain; Rose Curry; who discourses on the psychic art, and Margaret More- land, who figures in the biatant mar- riage episode of the play’s disappoint- ing close. © GORDON S.

No Attack on. Eduéation or Health Board to Be Allowed. oe Seventy-one letters and approximately 200 telephone calls have pledged the sup- port of the senders to Dr. A. Siebert of 1647 South Jefferson avenue, in his cam- paign against compulsory vaccination. Many of the writers of the letters have said they would attend the meeting, called by Dr. Siebert to be held Tues- day at 8 p. m., at the Barr Branch LI- brary, Jefferson and Lafayettte avenues, to discuss vaccination, tetanus, and the rule of the cerning vaccination of school children. An effort will be made at the meeting to form a permanent organization and plan a campaign to cause the discon- tinuance of what amounts practically to compulsory vaccination in schools. Dr. Siebert said Monday that no attacks on the officers of the Board of Health or Education would be allowed at the meeting. Offer&$ a Donation. J. E. Kraus of 4418 Forest Park boule- vard, is the first to come forward with a voluntary donation to aid the cause of the anti-vaccinationists. ute $100 as a nucleus to a fund to main- tain a permanent organization. Dr. Siebert said Monday, such an or- | ganization could be operated with small outlay. Dr. Siebert announced that he is ready | sug- | rdan, Assistant | to submit to the smallpox test gested by Dr. G. A. Health Commissioner, provided Dr. Jor- dan accept his terms. The provisions made by Dr. Siebert in his challenge are that the families of each give their con- sent, ant, the surviving family be-cared for. The test suggested, is that both doctors | submit to exposure to a case of virulent | smallpox to prove the vaccination the- ory. Dr. Jordan has been vaccinated, and insists that this will protect him. Dr. Siebert was vaccinated when 7? years of age, but says that according to med- ical records, the period immunity. has passed. Dr. Jordan said Monday. that he was willing to submit to the test, but in- sists that each contestant deposit $100 for expenses. Dr. Siebert will not agree to make this depasit. Dr. Jordan also said that if Dr..Siebert has been vaccin- 4. ated, even when a child, he will not be eligible to make the test, as ‘his chal- lenge was to a person who had never been vaccinated.

‘And Please SayI Don’t Smoke Cigarettes, Never Smoked and Never Shall and Also Thzt!I Don’t Box Though I Do With My Friends.”

| By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. . NEW YORK, Oct. 31. BEGAN exercising the first time I fell out of my crib.” “And when was that?’ I guess I was three days old or thereabouts,’ laughed Miss Eleonora Sears of Boston, perhaps the best- known sportswomar in America today. It was at the aviation meet at Belmont Park on Thursday, when Ralph Johns- stone was making his 9000 feet flight in the air, and Miss Sears of Buston’s Back Bay was watching. “Isn't it perfectly bully,” she asked, shading her eyes with her ungloved hand as she watched the death-defy- ing birdmen fade away into nothing- ness. ‘I don’t think I’d dare to -do ag Miss Sq > interested that for fully : mishe said not a word, but at “last chars was nothing to see. She stood there—sprightly, chic, welltanned, glowing with health and the joy of living, feminine, but not ef- fiminate. The sport held her fascin- ated. It may be added that among other sports, Miss Sears has included flying. She went up at the meet in Boston recently, and only the other day, Grahame-White, the British bird- man, took her up -in his machine for three ‘laps around the track. There is nothing in sport which Miss Eleonora Sears of Beacon street, Boston, has not done—and done. well. Miss Sears hardly cared to weak for publication and she said: Just Like Other Girls; No Different From Thousands “Why,” she protested, with a mer- ry grimace, “never but once befor have I said a word for publication, and yet all over the country they make me Say all sorts of impossible things. I’m just like other girls; I'm: no different from thousands. My, how my father sd “Oh, and mother object to all this sort of thing! I*get into trouble at home ev- ery time I say a word.” ND Miss Sears laughed heartily, A showing as white a row of well- kept, regular teeth as ‘ever a giv! had. Then she planted her two little feet wide apart, thrust her hands into the two pockets of her short skirt and But the air- men were nowhere to be seen. And finally she had something to say. Better Brand of. Women If More Girls Walked “It’s hard to tell what sort of exer- cise any girl or wonian shoufd takes.” she said with all seriousness. ‘“Every- body in ordinary health should exercise, of course. But: what one girl shouli do and what another should do would be hard for me to say. I, like every- thing. Perhaps that wouldn’t suit ev- ery body. “Walking? That’s perfectly fine. Pec- haps, you remember when I was out in California last spring and I started to walk from Burlingame to Del Monte, 108 miles. I walked 64 miles that first day and then had! They actually Ned to me. Thev told me I was all in, that I couldn‘: make it, and all that sort of . rubbish. I could have made it easily in the 6vu hours that had been laid down for me. But they went back on me—even the men. It was dark, and I did not knuw the roads, and I couldn’t go on alone, and they actually made me give it up because they left me. Walking hurts no one, and it. is surprising how far even a girl can walk when she /xets into training for it and has good he {th to back her up. i “If more girls walked there wou be a better brand of women in the es ve A States. ag “Or if they ride. I have enjoyed ! | es ever since I was able to ride. My faviier taught me. He rode much himself and it was a treat to me when he got back from a gallop to be allowed to sit in his saddle and be led back to the stable, hanging onto the horse the best way I begin when you're a baby. You get to know your seat on a horse and get abso- lute confidence. I never knew what it was to be afraid of a horse, and I never shall. I know what it must mean, though, to be afraid, for without your nerve you never can enjoy a run across country. I feel sorry for such: people; they can never know what réal fun is.

You can do just as much in the side saddle. ‘Polo? Bully! I Have Played It Against Men’' “Polo? Bully!» They’ve written all sorts of things about my playing polo, Which hasn’t been true.

Why I can dance till all the men are-tired out.” T may be said here that Miss Sears | likes a good game of baseball. She can play. herself, and has played. She is'‘better at the bat than in the fleld, despite her slender build and her 135 pounds ‘“Swimming ? There’s the Best Exercise of All’’ “There’s best exercise’ of all,” she said. “I. love it. A lot of foolish things have been written and said abeut my swtmming. Now I don't know any fancy strokes and I don't know much about diving. I just swim for the fun and exercise of it.” Aeroplaning was the next sport that came to Miss Sears’ mind, and she was all enthusiasm. “Afrai Not a bit,” she laughed. “I just Voved it. It was perfectly fine to through the air and see the ground: underneath us. No, I didn’t feel all gone; it wasnt’ like being on a boat or shooting the chutes at all. It felt Mke just what it was—floating on air. The«whirr of the motor deafens you a little bit, but that’s all. I could have kept on sailing that way ali day. I don't see why any woman need feel afraid of flying in an aeroplane. I’m going up again the first time I get a chance. I should like to have stayed up longer the last time.” “Would you dare take up @ machine alone?” “Certianly not. I don’t think that's a woman’s business.

ee Se Fae in their struggle against the ele- ments. T WAS getting cold and the wind was coming up. Miss Sears didn’t have her overcoat with her—the one she usually wears at sporting events in the autumn, but she had a geod, warm, blue serge suit, with jacket and short skirt, with plenty of pockets. She stood with her feet wide apart and thrust her hands into the_pockets: of her vest—she had them on both sides just as a man has them in his trousers. Sometimes she varied this as she taiked by shoving her hands into the pockets of her Norfolk jacket. It was essentially a sporting costume, ‘rough and ready, and eminently fit for the day. She wore low shoes of tan leather with low heels, and a Plain shirt waist under her jacket. There was a soft Eton cellar, held to- gether with a gold pin, and robin’s exe blue four-in-hand tie set with a dainty scarfpin. Her hat was a rough black sailor straw held on not by hatpins, but with a black band behind ‘her hair, which was wisped up tightly in a short braid. She wore no gloves and no jewelry. - ‘tS this your dress at sporting events, Miss Sears?’ was asked of Pher. “Now, don’t you say a word shout’ my clothes,’ she protested. “TI think they’re ugly, don’t you?” > But it was too late. The clothes had to be described, and so she was informed. In return, the ptetty ted from Boston asked a favor. “Won't you please let people know that I don’t smoke cigarettes?” she asked, seriously. “That has been printed everywhere. I never smoked one and never shall, and I don’t think any woman should. Just. because I xo tn for exercise and sport, does that make a man cut of met And how can you keep your wind if you ride and swim and play tennis and golf'and all sorts of things, if you smoke?

It dees you gocd to box.” Just then Mrs. Craig-Biddle and her two pretty children came along—she has been Miss Sears’ hostess during the week. . “Aren't they the sweetest kiddies?’ Miss Sears demanded enthusiastically, showing her femininity once more, though she can tool a coach, or ride cross country, Or sail a yacht, or drive a golf ball or swim four miles. The chat was over. Miss Sears of Boston, Newport and sometimes of New York, had other engagements. “And be sure,’ she laughed, waving NL Ae re emt ae No Hair Is So Thin, Faded or Infested With ‘Dandruff, but That This .emsdy + il Overcome the Trouble.

She has become greatly interested in him and rumors that he had won her heart have been in circulation since the Boston aviation meeting. They gained force today when. Grahame-White's manager repudiated the announce- ment of the young aeroplanist’s en- Zagement to marry Paulnie Chase, | known on the stage as “The Pink’ Pajama Girl.” This statement was called forth to allay the curiosity of visitors to the international aviation meet, who marveled that Grahame- White should be constantly in Miss Sears’ company when he had so re- céntly contracted allegiance with Miss Chase.

RULES ARE _ SIMPLE Literary Ability Is Not Neces- sary—Just Tell the Story, Names and Dates. CHICAGO CHINATOWN HAS. FIRST

A large number of remarkable letters, relating to the authors’ romances of love, mystery, heroism and _ business, have been received from St. Louis and the Southwest in the Pagt-Dispatch con- test for $1000 in cash prizes, offered for the best acceptable stpbries of actual an& unusual experiences. ~ Most of the writers Ainderstood that the contest is in no wAy a literary one, and that no value {whatever will be placed by the judges upon elegance of phrasing or rhetorical flights. Other things being equal, a misspelled and un- grammatical contribution will have as much chance as one fulfilling all the rules of composition. It is facts—actual facts—the names, dafes and places of extraordinary happenings within the knowledge of the competitors, that the Post-Dispatch wants. All the Requirements. A few entrants were discouraged by their mistaRen impression that the prizes could be won only by diterary experts. All that ts necessary is to relate, in the simplest language, that a thing hap- pened at such a time and place, that the writer took such a part and that other persons, if any, who must be named, participated in such and such a fashion. No story should take more than 300 words in the telling. Some of the letters tell of unusual love stories, such as that of the man who saw a beautiful woman’s picture tn a newspaper, followed her around the world, met her and finally married her. Others atempt the solution of mysteries like the Kimmel case or the whereabouts of Mrs. Gunness. Some tell of witness- ing or participating in acts of heroism, others of romantic business deals, like the working of an unknown mine, and still others of humorous incidexts in which well-known persons were con- cerned. The most promising of these contribu- tions will be investigated by Post-Dis- patch reporters and, if found authentic, will be entered for the prizes. Each reader who has experienced an unusual adventure of any kind should write it at once and send it to the Post-Dispatch, as by so doing $200 may be won. ’ : Terms of the Contest. According to the terms of the contest, the Post-Dispatch will pay $200 each: For the best acceptable love story ob- tained through 200 words of information giving facts, names, dates, places and photographs which can be verified by a Post-Vispatch representative. For the best acceptable story of mys- tery obtained through 300 words of in- formation giving facts, names, dates, places and photographs which can be verified by a Post-Dispatch representa- tive. ‘For the best acceptable story of hero- ism obtained through 300 words of in- formation giving facts, names, dates, places and photographs that can be verified by a Post-Dispatch representa- tive.

CHICAGO, Oct. 81.—Sugar cane day was observed in Chinatown yesterday by the consumption of more than a ton of the saccharin article, which is the Chinese favorite conféction. The first shipment of cane arrived Saturday from New Oriéans and every Chinese in town came to Clark street to gorge himself om the sweetened stalks. At some of the stores where cane was sold there were cortests ameas the gourmands as to which could eat the most, “Chinese seldom eat candy,” said Frank Woy, the Mayor of Chinatown, “but I never knew one who wasn’t crazy about sugar cane. The first shipment, which usually arrives about Noy, 1, is anxiously looked for by my country- men. os “A dozen _ “A donen stores on Clark street had

There. should be no. doubt. that the successful candidates of the parties in the primary are the actual selections of honest majorities of the voters. Nor should be accepted by the Legislature.

Mr. Francis and others were notified to make their tax returns on. their personal property. for 1910, and, after being so. notified;. to evade his, ~he sought ‘the advice of legal counsel and was ad- vised not to make a rettirn. His assessment was then raised from $75,000 in 1909 to $2,000,000 in 1910. He said he would appeal'from the raise, but the 16th of April passed by and he did not appeal. He said he would give his personal tax list, but he never did ‘give it. He paid total taxes on his personal prop- Orty Dor 1908.6... wes for 1910.

Ad¢itional sum he will have to pay for 1910 over 1909.. Had he succeeded in his endeavor to defeat these taxes on his personal property, he would have beaten the State of Missouri out of State taxes for the year 1910, $3,272.50. He would have beaten the common schools out of taxes for the year 1910, $11,550.00. .He would have beaten the City of St. Louis out of. taxes for- the year. 1910, $28,912.50; in all, $42,735.00, And he asks the voters of Missouri te send him to. the United States Senate ‘as their honored rep- resentative.

Any desiring to» become members to help the cause may regis- ter for 50 cents an onate, if they .choose, any small amount to sw the fund for the purpose intended. A. W. ELLIS, Secretary, for St.. Louis. ‘Home Rul Phet-Dispatcn: To the Editor of the Now that ex-Gov. A. M. Dockery has said that St. Louis should have “home rule,” the question fs again asked by Cap. W., “will the members elect- ed on Nov. 8 to the Legislature use their influ- rence and work for the benefit of;the city’ of St. Louis, or vote with the countrymen, to the detri- ment of their own personal interests. Mr. Redmond received nearly $5000 tréuy this city to be used to gain “home rule” for Ireland. Let’s hope Ireland will get “home rule’’—and, in- cidentally, St. Louis—without asking for money to pay the “expense.” — It’s up to -the next Legislature as to shat St. Louis willl. get. “Amendment No, 10” is dead—and will sdon be a forgotten issue. , Let the new Legislature make laws to comply with, the present day, repeal the old ones of/ 30 years ago—and let nearly a million souls “know where they are at.” CAP. W. Prohibition Does Not Prohibit. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. For the information of those who heard the address of Gov. Stubbs of Kansas recently, as well as those who may have read a press report of his address, I beg to state through your umns that according to the last official of the Honorable Commission of Internal Révenue of the United States there were 1899 retai dealers, 10 wholesale liquor dealers, two brewers, 493 retail dealers in malt liquors and 72 whole- {Sale dealers in malt liquors, paying special tax t2 the Government for the conduct of their re- spective business in the State of Kansas. As to the consumption of liquors since the or- ganization of the Anti-SajJoon League at Oberlin, Ohio, in 1887, I beg to state that there were tax- paid and consumed in the United States in that year (in round figures) 64,000,000 gallons of alco- holic liquors made from gréti. In 1907 when the Anti-Saloon League cele brated its twentieth anniversary, and published tu the world that two-thirds of the United States was operating under prohibition, there were 134,- 000,000 gallons tax-paid and consumed, an in- crease of 108 per-cent. While the actual increase in. population during the same period was only 38 per. cent. \ The consumption of beer increased from 1,100,- gallons produced and consumed in 1897, as against 1,800,000,000 gallons consumed in 1907. This should answer’ satisfactorily and con- clusively the question asked,’ “Does prohibition prohibit?” JNO, DEAN. Memphis, Tenn. Foreign Scientists Oppose Vaccination. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I read the letter singed BH. J. Kradse about vac- .cination in your paper and wish to get more ac- /quainted with the gentleman. I have the same | opinion about vaccination he has and would gladly. join in any movement against that evil for our little beloved children, and would not spare any money. I have two children, which for fear they will be recklessly killed by Vac- cination I intend’ to send to a private school. I appreciate very much your editorial in today’s paper about vaccination, and wish your paper would help further the cause to put aside this evil. S. MUCK, * The Railroad Candidate.

ONE COLLECTOR’S HOBBY. From the London Chronicle. The hobbies of the rich collectors are sometimes as silly as those of the street boy. A French banker who died recently left a collection of 63,000 cigar bands, each differing in some particular from the others. These had cost him 50 years of smoking and had been arranged sys- tematically in a number of specially con- structed cabinets. None of his children shared his taste, so it was decided to sell the bands. When put up to auc- tion the collection which had entailed the expenditure of so much time and money realized 20 francs.

SAVES ON PENCIL POINTS. From the Chicago Journal. Do you know what “a Standard O11! point” on a iead pencil is? It is a point sharpened like a chisel instead of like an awl. It saves much of th® waste of black lead which is whittled away in the ordinary way of preparing a pencil. Also the writer, writing always on the edges of the chisel-shaped point, can use the pencil much longer without resharpening it. It is understood that statisticians have figured out that Standard Oil saves $2000 a year by the use of this pencil point, which fs said to have been devised by Miss Katharine Harrison, the very tall and able secretary of the late H. H. Rogers. *

STOCK MARKET. a. IES AFTER ~ FARLY DEGLINE Prices Show Only Minor Changes: From Saturday’s Close. NEW YORK. Oct. 31. NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—The market hesitated at the decline when offerings dried up and then éurned upward. Most issues recovered their losses before the advance halted. The closing was quiet at the rally. Selling of an increasing character _turned the market weak nearing the noon hour ard prices on the active fa- vorites dropped an average of oven a he metal shares, with Reading. and Unfion Pacific, were the weakest features. The bond list was irregular. The range of prices on securities was slightly lower at the opening of the ‘market today. Trading was fairly act- ive, with the demand centered in the metal stocks. London. sent over a higher range of prices on Americans before the local opening, the changes showing from % to % of a point improvement. The gen- eral speculation shows some slight bet- terment, due to an easier tendency in the foreign money market. The Lon- don Stock Exchange will be closeij Tuesday. The local market position reflects no important. change over Sunday. A. survey of the bank statement shows a continued widening of loans over de. posits, a condition t..at must inevitably be adjusted either through foreign bor- rowing, a heavy’ export movement or liquidation in securities. The constant decline in grain, which is bringing th: price down rapidly to an export level, is the real assuring factor in the bank- ing position, especially with the fall yield of grain breaking all previous records. . The labor trouble among ithe express companies is causing scme verse corm- ment in the financial circles, as the in- dications are that it wil] extend: io Brooklyn today. This ig, howeve, largely a local disturbance and should not be treated seriously as a market factor.

You go and get the grub, Leclaire. ‘We'll | settle fof it afterward.” Arizona Jack looked grateful, and, muttering: something about “damned lit- tle birds,” stepped aboard the open boat planks that had been sawed by hapd from the standing timber of Lake Lin- derman, @ few hundred miles above, at the foot of Chilcoot. & pair of oars amd Arizona Jack's blankets. Leclaire brought the grub, Wed up in a flour sdéck, and put it on board. As he did so, he whispered: , 2 gave you good measure, Jack. You Gone it with provocation.”’ “Cast her off!" Arizona Jack cried. Somebody untied the painter and threw it in. The current gripped the boat and whirled it away, The murderer did not bother with the oars, rontenting himself with sitting in the stern-sheets and rolling a cigarette. Completing it, he struck a match and Wghted up, Those that watched on the bank could see the tiny puffs of smoke).

They were compelled to make it for themsélves, It was in an early day that Red Cow flourished on the Yukon— 1887—and the Klondike and its populous stampedes lay in the unguessed future. The men of Red Cow did not even know whether their camp was situated in alaska or in the Northwest Territory, whether they drew breath under the Stars and Stripes or under the British flag. No survéyo had ever happened along to give them cheir latitude and longitude. Red Cow was situated some- where along the Yukon, and that was sufficient for them. So far as flags were concerned, they were beyond all jurisdiction. concerned, they were in No-Man's Land. Having disposed of Arizona Jack and watched him out of sight, the population turned from the bank and went to work .on its claims—all exeept Curly Jim, who ‘ran the one faro layout in all the North- land, vand who speculated in prospect holes on the side. Two things happened that day that were momentous, In the late morning Mareus O’Brien struck it. He wasked out a dollar, @ dollar and a half, and two dollars, from three succes- sive pans. He had struck the etreak. Curly Jim looked into the hole, washed a few pans himself, and offered O’Brien $19,000 for all rights—$5000 in ‘dust, and, In Hew of the other $5000, a half-interest in. his faro layout. O’Brien refused the offer. He was there to make money out ‘of the earth, he declared with heat, and

Baseball men believe that Clark Grif- fith overreached himself by trying to {jam through his deal without first no- tifying the president and stockholders of the Philadelphia club. Furthermore, they are of the opinion that Garry Herrmann, a man usually to be found on the right side of baseball issues;-is “in wrong” this time, and that he is talking nonsense when he declares that the dea) has been completed) and that he will send contracts to Batex, Moren, McQuillen and Grant. WN Undoubtedly the addition of this talent to the Reds would make them strong contenders for the pennant next season.

Coaches Mosse and Reed of Kansas University attended the game at Joplin, but the Tigers were not forced to ex- tend themselves, as is shown by the fact that they used only one forward pass, while they have a repertoir \consisting of five different kinds of thi play. On “dope” St. Louis looks stronger than the Tigers, for while the Tigers were able to tie with Rolla, the Jesuits defeated the Miners 3 to 0. Early sea- son games, however, are notoriously misleading and it is probable that Tiger supporters will have to ive odds on the coming battle. Eyes on lowa Game. Missouri followers are watching with more than usual interest the score frofn the Ames-lowa contest and praying that Iowa may win. Fans who saw both of these teams play the Tigers say that al- though Missouri defeated Iowa and was defeated on a technical score of 6 to 5 by Ames, that Iowa can defeat Ames. Upon the result of the Iowa-Ames contest will depend the Tigers’ posi- ction in the race for the Missouri V4l- lex title.

The Cubs provei they were the best club in the National League by winning the ganization is trying continually to strengchen !n order to cope with the Cubs. The Cubs at the present time being the strongest, have less of that to do than any of the other clubs.

I should say not. - Again, just go through the lineup of the Cubs and take and then take any other club you want to and see for yourself whether you and let you see for yourself whether you would trade or not and for whom.
