PRANK PLANNED AT PARTY

Big Brother Is Enlisted ‘to Climb Pedestal and Adorn Figure Which Seemed Cold. Carrie Kingsbury, gayly clad in a large straw hat, flirted with passersby on Union boulevard Monday. Startled beholders at first thought that Mary Garden was giving an open-air peeform- ance of Sa!ome. Carrie is the mare or less classical] statue—more classic and less clothing— which cecorates the entrance to fashiun- able Kingsbury place. Her New Year's gown was donated by young women -of prominent families living in the aristo- cratic neighborhood. The plan to clothe Carrie originated at a New Year's eve party at the home of Miss Helene Rosemann of 5354 Water- man avenue. Among. the iuir plotters were Margaret Senseney, of 57233 Cleinens avenue; Grace White of 4417 Westmin- ster place; Lucy Reynolds’ of, 6671 Von Versen avenue, and Lida Wiegand gil Washington terrace. Just who first proposed that Carric should be clothed. in conventional: garb is @ secret that is being jealously guarded. Leaving the Rosemann home at 10:30 p. m., the young women brav- ing the cold of a winter night, carried the nightgown, hat and sash to Carrie. But, horrors, they found that Carrie was so far above them that they could not dress her. With some , misgivings they decided that they would have to call on Helene Rosemann's brother,, Edmond, to help them. One of the girls went back! to the ‘house and Edmond responded ‘to the call. Putting the hat on his own head and tying the gown and: sash around his waste, he climbed to Carrie’s * pedestal | while the girls stood about shivering and giggling. Sash about her waist ahd put leghorn hat on her head. To the sash he pinneda_ Sign which the “A New sear @ Resolution.” Monday, while Carrie was flendting: her new wardrobe on a near-zero breeze, the young women refused to tel] what the sign means. “Tt speaks for itself,” said Miss Rose- mann. “‘Werthought Carrie was a riva] to Mary Garden, that’s all.” JUDGE: BROWN TAKES HIS SEAT ON BENCH OF SUPREME COURT Listens With Associates to Me- morial Addresses, Kennish Arrives Also.

PORTLAND, Me., Jan. 2.~—Twenty- three hunting seasons in the Maine woods, with 38 deer, hundreds of part- ridges, ducks and smaller ganie, in ad- dition to many strings of trout, have given to Mrs. Walter Juddkins of Port- land the reputation of being the best allround sportswoman in the Eastern United States.

Many of the wealthiest men in the county have been indicted, and their fines have been as- sessed at rates that have made them gasp. One of them, noted for his penu- riousness, although he is worth $60,000 or more, thought te escapé by pleading not guilty. The Judge put him under $500 bond for trial. He tried half a day to get someone to go on his bond, but his personal unpopularity made that im- possible, s@ he came back and pleaded guilty and nearly strangled to death when he was fined $30 and had to pay it. Two ministers of the gospel are among those who have been indicted. Two prom- inent physicians have pleaded guilty. One young man has confessed to selling his vote to his own father, an elder in the United Presbyterian Churen. Only the United Presbyterian Church. “Uncle Freddie’ Beck, a village char- acter in West Union, received $25—the highest price yet reported to have been paid for a single vote.

He spent $150 to buy 300 Democratic votes at 8 cents ‘each; and was elected. Four years later when Charley Foster ran for Govern- or, it became a regular business for both parties. ey

KING FAILS: T0 GIVE ANY PEERAGES FOR NEW YEAR England’s Ruler Creates Some Knights, Including a Caterer and a Miner’s Son. LONDON, Jan. 2.—Much surprise will be expressed by the absence from the New Year’s honors issued last night of any new peerages. The political prophets had predicted an unusually large list of peerages, tha rames of the Rt. Hon. Richard B. Hal- dane, Secretary of War, and others having been :mentioned., Some conservative papers have talked of the appointment of as many as or 80 new peers. The omission is susceptible to two pos- gible explanations. ‘Hither the Kins would net sanction or Premier Asquith was, reluctant to recommend the créa- tion * of peers while the difficult ques- tion relating to the House of Lords re- mained unsettled. The most likely te strike public atten- tion among the néew knights are Joseph Lyons, a well known caterer, for serv- ices in supporting the territorial move- ment, and Henry J. Wood, the orches- tral conductor. Sydney Colvin, keeper of prints and drawings in the British Museum, was also knighted. MET YOU BEFORE, SAYS MASHER YOU'RE A LIAR, SAYS WOMAN One of Crowd in Waldorf’s Peacock Alley Shows She Can Protect Herself. NEW YORK, Jan. 2.+-Peacock alley, in the Waldorf-Astoria, was so thronged with visitors Saturday afterneon that the house detective was busy trying to protect women from the attentions of ‘‘mashers.” A handsomely gowned, at- tractive young woman proved, however, that she was able to protect herself. After eluding the detective’s vigilance, one of the “mashers’’ stepped jauntily up to this woman and said in his most gracious manner, “Pardon. me, I be- lieve I have had the pleasure of meet- ing you before.” : . Mimicking his tone and manner, the young woman replied: “Pardon me, I believe you are a damned Har.” The fellew vanished, ;

“SEESHOW, FIANCE. SHOOTS HIMSELF Naval Reserve Attempts His Life After Sweetheart Objects to Venturing Out in Mud. AMBULANCE IS MIRED Neighbors Push Vehicle Carrying Wounded Man Two Blocks Toward Hospital. Joseph Smith, a Missouri Naval Re- serve, who shot himself in the presence of his sweetheart, Miss Belle Mullin, after she had refusea to go to a nick- elodeon with him, is in a serious con- dition at the city hospital. The bullet entered his left breast, narrowly missing his heart. Miss Mul- lin, who tried in vain to. knock the re- volver from Smith's hand, is prostrat- ed at her home, 5 Bast Grand avenue. “We had a little quarrel, but I didn’t think he would do anything like that,” she said Monday. Smith, who is 19 vears old, lives at 5014 Bulwer avenue. Before leavirig his home Sunday afternoon he told his mother that he and Miss Mullin were to be married in a few weeks. He went to the.Mullin residence and asked Belle to go to a nickelodeon with him. She refused to do se Be pie sake was raining. Smith remained there until after sup- per, when he again asked Miss Mullin to go to the show with him. She con- sented, and tity had reached the front gate, when she changed her mind,.say- ing that it was too muddy for the walk to and from the nickelodeon. ‘‘He seemed angry,’ said Miss Mullin, “and argued with me. I had ne idea he took it so seriously until he pulled a revolver from his pecket. Before I could get it away from him he placed it against his breast and fired.’’ An ambuilance’in which Smith was being taken to the dispensary became mired before reaching Broadway, and residents of the. neighborhood had to push it two. blocks. The police say Smith took the revolver from a dresser drawer at the Mullin home. Members of the family deny this. - Poisoned Kiss Believed to Have Killed Fiancee (ne RRR Continned_ From Précejiag Page : an investigation into the and history generally of Miss Elosser and Twigg. Twigg was 23 year’ of age and quite wealthy. He had a prosperous general store in the village of Keyser and had bought a yeautiful home there for his bride, and one of the other purchases he had for the wedding was that ef a big touring car, in which he and his bride were to have enjoyed their honey- moon, Miss Elosser’s parents are in com- fortable circumstances. Besides the dead girl, the gther member of her fam- ily is her sister, Miss May Elosser. She is voung, pretty and a teacher at the Chapel Hi!! School. It was she that introduced the young merchant to her sister. The young man had come to this city during the Cumberland Fair. He met Miss May Elosser and pafd her marked attention until he met her sis- ter, Grace. Then hevwas wholly at- tracted toward Grace and began his courtship which ended a few weeks ago in her consent to marry him. It was agreed that they would wed on the first day of the new year. Sister Was Jealous. The authorities say they have learned that Migs May Elogser took greatly to heart the turning of Twigg from her-

self to her sister, amd that sne had fot for weeks spokén to her sister, nor had she ever brought herself to the point of congratulating: Grace on her coming marriage. However, the point the au- thorities are most anxious of all to clear up is to determine the exact hour of death and to thoroughly ransack the Elossev’ houselold. This anxiety is grounded on ‘the fact, they assert, that ifi was half an hour after the couple were found sitting together dead before a doctor or any persom outside the family was called in. 4 DON’T BE AN ICEBERB, T THEME OF CARDINAL AL GIBBONS’ SERMON He Advises | Baltimoreans to Warm Up to Humanity and Quit Selfishness.

Also Do Not Think Men on Earth Can Tell the Aerial Conditions, WANT FLYERS LICENSED Glenn Curtiss Thinks Such Su- pervision Should Be Given to Federal Government. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Jan. 2—‘‘No, it is not feasible,” said Glenn Curtiss to the Post-Dispatch correspondent, when asked for his opinion on the advisabil- ity of having all aviation under -super- visors of competent authority to pass en Archbishop. in ais Year mon. Says He Is Oppos HARMFUL TO YOUNGS Love of Arms, the Pp . Avows, Leads to WideSp The spirit of militeriem was as oe ee ee SS ee weather conditions as well as the aviat- ors themselves. “No one on the ground knows any- thing abeut the conditions in the alti- tudes, come when no aviator will be permit- ted to carry passengers wntil his ma- chine has been inspected and passed up- on by a Government officer, and when every aviator will have to have a licensé just as a chauffeur does now. Only, I believe the license should be issued by the national Government instead of by city er State authority. Aviators Difficulties, “The difficulties an aviator has to contend with are not with the wind, but with the kind of wind he encount- ers. No matter what thé velocity of the wind is, he can fly. Men have flown in wind of 70 miles velocity. The dangers come when, for example, the nights are cold and the days het. That condition creates wind of the whirlwind variety and they are to contend with. ‘But no supervision would have pre- vented the tragedies of Saturday. It was not the wind, I think that had to tdo with Hoxsey’s accident. -The wind might have cut some figure, but Hoxsey has successfully navigated werse air than that. You may put me down un- qualifiedly, that I do net favor any at- tempt to supervise weather conditions, “As to the capabilities of machines, that part is feasible as soon as someone of efficiency can be found to do the su- pervising. But it will be some time be- fore that can be done properly.” Agrees With Curtiss. ‘You must leave that to us,” said Walter Brookins, discussing the same subject. “We are the only ones who can tell what the weather conditions are @nd it would be useless for any committee or board to determine it for us. We have to take our chances and that Is all there'is to it.. Accidents will happen in any walk of life. It‘might be all right to have the machines inspect- ed, but no one would do that as thor-j oughly as we do ourselves. I am sure I would not attempt a flight in a ma- chine someone else, had inspected. I don’t care who he might be or how ex- pert or what an authority, if 1 didn’t think -on my own inspection -that the machine was all right I wouldn't make the flight. And I am also sure that I would not take anyone else's word for weather conditions.” Ely Opposes Scheme. ‘That sounds like folly,’’ said Bugene Ely of the Curtiss camp, when told of the proposition. .A board of supervisors would have to fly before they could tell the conditions and they would have to be everywhere in the air all the time, because the conditions change at vari- ous heights and from minute to minute. No, it is absurd.” ‘You might as well try to regulate the air as to supervise i*.”’ said Hubert Latham, the Frenchman. ‘‘Regulation of individuals ‘would be all right and l- censing wili come eventually. But I fear it is a long way off yet. These ac- cidents, such as Hoxsey’s and Mois- sant’s, tragic as they are and sad as they are, cannot be avoided except by staying on tho ground—and then a street car or an automobile will run over you. Further development of the machines and the art of aviation will correct many of the causes of such accidents. No, it would not do to have some com- mittee decide whether we should fly or not.” PASTOR 10 COOK CHICKEN AND

Laswell Is Disarmed by De- tectives at Theater in Springfield, II. SPRINGFIELD, Ills. Jan. 2.—J. K. Laswell, a well known resident of Han- nibal, Mo., caused excitement in front of the Gaiety Theater here last night when he attempted to shoot George Long, also of Hannibal, whom he said had induced his daughter, Geneva Las- well, to leave home. Detectives De Long and Lloyd, who, with Laswell, were searching for the couple, ‘averted the tragedy. De Long knocked the weapon from Laswell’s grasp as Long. came from the theater with Miss Laswell. Long and Miss Laswell were taken to the police station. They admitted they had left Hannibal Christmas eve and had tNved together here ever since.

New. Year; Husbar:: Dend., POO AIDED PE TKALSOMINNG OF LORIMER 10 MEET FIGHT IN SENATE WASHINGTON, Jan. 2,—Arguments against the whitewashing reports of the. Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections and against Senator Lorimer’s title to a seat in the Sen- ate are to be advanced by the keen- est legal intellects and most aggres- sive fighters in that body. Even the conservative Senators, Root of New York and Burton of Ohio, may refuse to smooth over the scandal. “I have been devoting the holidays to a careful reading of the evidence bearing upon the corruption in the election of Senator Lorimer,” said Senator Borah of Idaho today. “In my opinion, the evidence by no means justifies the report which has been submited to the Senate by the committee. I will oppose the adop- tion of the report.” Borah . states his belief that a resolution will be introduced declar- ing Senator Lorimer’s seat vacant and that it will find strong support. Republican senators virtually certain to attack the Lorimer report are Borah of Idaho, Cummins of Iowa, Beveridge of Indiana, La Follette of Wisconsin and Bristow of Kansas, ai.

2 Taking slashing cut-price specials % Of | PUBLIC HIGHWAYS Draftsmen Are Preparing Sug- gestions for Straightening City’s Streets. SMALL PARKS LAID OUT Tentative Arrangement Provides for Making Chestnut Street a Boulevard. 7 Under direction ef the Executive Com- mittee of the St. Louis City Plan Asso- ciation, Secretary Wright, a landscape architect, and a force of draftsmen are at work on four suggestions for widening and straightening city high- ways. These plans, part of a general scheme of permanent public improve- ment, will be submitted to the Municipal Assembly and a vigorous campaign will be.made for their adoption. When drawings are ‘completed, and it is expected they soon will be, the Ex- ecutive Committee will lay them before the association, following which, it is hoped, the municipality will see the benefits that will accrue to it by their adoption. A plan for widening Chestaut street, from Twelfth street to Beaumont street, will be ready for submission to the as- sociation in about two weeks. This street—now 60 feet wide—has been se- lected by the Executive Committee, with the aid of expert advice, as the logical thoroughfare for an east and wést bou- levard, an artery to connect the fash- ionable West End with the downtown district. The plan has the indorgement of Street Commissioner Travilla; and was thought of by former administra- tions. Parks Are Suggested, Drawings being prepared by the City Plan Association show a boulevard 150 feét wide, with driveways on each side and a parkway in the center. For this a half block of ground on the south side of Chestnut street, from Twelfth

street to Beaumont street, would have acquired by the city by con- on. * res of the approximate. cost of zested improvement have been . but Architect Wright declares t ould not be as great on Chest- as it would be on any other ie dog” wn district. -The mpro} «t would bring Lawton avenue} re pene ting i for pr tted, with p mn of pr... busing. he y city. f will be that the of ground bounded Diive street, Chan- bust street, to break mie turns at Locust @ Avenue. A plan will of easing these road- from Locust street yenue, Olive street and on avenue. else will be htening Natural Bridge and Gra- time of persons Stee driving over them, as well as to shorten W the running schedules of car lines that ‘tfaverse them. | The improvement ef Gravois road is a suggestion of Capt. Robert McCylloch of the United Railways Co. To bring about this improvement, it Is estimated, about $200,000 or $300,000 would have to be spent for two biocks of improved prop- erty. However, 50,000 persons on the South. Side would save 10 minutes each day tn going to and coming from down- town. At an average day’s wage, it has Reen computed, the amount spent by the city would be returned te the citizens in five years. Would Extend Gravois Road. Another plan is for carrying Gravois road through private property from Eighteenth street and Russell . avenue. across the intersection of Doiman street and Allen avenue and through private property to Thirteenth street at Geyer avenue. This change would shorten the route of the Bellefontaine line one-third of a mile, as well as shorten the road- Way for persons using Gravois road in getting downtown. The Bellefontaine cars make four turns from Gravois road and Mississip- pi avenue,*o Fourteenth and Chouteau avenue. “By continuing Gravois road th Thirteenth street these curves would he eliminated. By acquiring a block at Glasgow ave- nue and Natural Bridge road a curve into Jefferson avenue could be made which would make a shorter route to Jefferson avenue. Users of the Natura] Bridge road would come to Jefferson avenue to get down town instead of using» Grand avenue and other western thoroughfares. It is said that the jogs at Natural Bridge road and Glasgow ‘javenue cause congestion of traffic east and west of Grand avenue. George J.

Photographic evidence and fines, doubled or greatly increased on every conviction after the first, were the means by which Dr. Justus Ohage, for- mer, Health Commissioner of St. Paul, abated the smoke in Minnesota’s cap- ital city. Dr. Ohage will tell, in a public ad- Gress to be given in St. Louis Jan. 31, of his successful campaign against smoke. The place for the address has not yet, been selected... Mrs. Louis Marion MeCall is in charge of the ar- }rangements.. He is a public speaker of repute, and has delivered his anti- smoke address in Philadelphia, Cleve- land and Detroit. St. Paul has an ordinance which does not, like the St. Louis ordinance, pro- vide that it shall be a defense for the producer of emoke to show that there is no consuming or preventive device pdapted to his use. The St. Paul smoke law unreservedly forbids smoke from chimneys, boats and locomotives and provides $25 te $100 fines and terms of imprisonment ranging to 9% days for violations. Conferread With Firemen. The ordinance does not provide for the appointment of any special officer to enforce it, and Mayor Smith turned the task over in 198 to the Health Commissioner. Before proceeding in his campaign, Dr. Ohage questioned officers of the national and local un- ions of steam firerién as to whether, in their belief.the existing smoke nuisance could.reasonably be prevented without injury to trade and manufac- turing interests. The answérs were in the affirmative, and the Health Commissioner then adopted as his motto, “Smoke does not mean prosperity; it means waste of fuel and disregard for the rights of others.’’ “This motto he printed at 31N WITH COLD WAVE 4 ‘ is Forget Temperament and ddile, Shivering, Just Like Real Humans. fary Garden Selon® slept late Mon- ¥ morning in a baby blue. bed the Jefferson.

: > $0000 Circulation Books Open to All OOOOOOO MODERN ‘‘SOCIETY.’’ To some it may have seemed a new and strange

doctrine when Dr. Woodrow Wilson, Governor of New Jersey, claimed a partnership for “society” in all private business. When incidentally, he defined “the life of society” as a “struggle for law,” the novelty of the doctrine disappears al- We have then nothing more repulsive- ly novel from Dr. Wilson in the essence of his theory than is contained in the Decalogue, as a protection against false weights and balances. Whatever novelty appears in thought as most strange and unprecedented, is almost always the result of a new word or of using an old word for @ new purpose. We are using the old word “so- ciety” now for new purposes. It takes the place of such old words as “anybody and everybody.” If Dr. Wilson succeeds _in establishing just weights and measures in New Jersey, the most characteristic and notorious New Jersey methods of cheating will be punishable as cheating was under the oldest codes. In the oldest codes, cheat- ing was a sin against the “Sungod” who stood) for society because he saw everything “goihg on under the sun.” Under the oldest codes “if somebody cheats anybody,” it- is the business of the Sungod to stop it. If “somebody” refuses to stop robbing “society,” then under the Sungod’s law, he is outlawed, with the law against him and everybody supporting the law. When “somebody” cheats privately, it is not “private business” under the code under the Decalogy ' which can appl; is nothing ¢ anybody k in his ho private 4 the L right y rule of | bere ; A eee ‘ pegs wrote to the righ “ph marry before getting a the > 7 r. ‘at nt bo Peg poving, rinsing a n. 3 WIDOW.—Free dental for ma schools.

You ought to know who I am by this time. I want that woman to have her divorce. I'll pay for it. The day you set Mrs. Billings free I'll pay you $500.” “Lady to see you, sir,”” bawled Archi- bald, bouncing in from his anteroom. He had: orders to always announce immedi- ately any client that might come. There was no sense in turning business away. Lawyer Gooch took client number one by the arm and led him suavely into one of the adjoining rooms. “Favor me by remaining here a few minutes, sir,” sald he. “TI will return and resume our consultation with the least possible de- lay. I am rather expecting a visit from @ very wealthy old lady in connection a a will, I wil] not keep you waiting ong.”’ “Show the lady in, Archibald,” he said — office boy, w who was awaiting the order A tall iady, of commanding presence and sternly handsome, entered the room, She wore robes—robes; not clothes— ample and fluent. In her eye could be perceived the lambent flame of genius and soul, In her han@ was a green bag of the capacity of a bushel, and an um- brella that also seemed to wear a robe, ample and fluent. She accepted a chair. “As a lawyer, sir,’ began the lady, “you may have acquired some knowl- edge of the human heart. Do you be- lieve that the pusillanimous and petty conventions of our artificial soci life should stand as an obstacle in the way of & noble and affectionate heart when it finds its true mate among the miserable and worthless wretches in the world that are called men?’’ “You wish to state a hypothetical case?’ said Lawyer Gooch. “I was going to say that,’’ said the lady, sharply. ‘“‘Now, suppose there is a2 woman who Is al] soul and heart and aspirations for a complete existence. This woman has a husband who is far below her in intellect, in taste—in every- thing. Bah! he is a brute. He despises literature. He sneers at the iofty thoughts of the world’s great thinkers. He thinks only of real estate and such sordid things. He is no mate for a woman with soul. We will say that this unfortunate wife one day meets with her ideal—a man with brain and heart and force. She loves him. Al- though this man feels the thrill of a new-found affinity he is too noble, too honorable to declare himself. He flies from the presence of his beloved.

But one flight of fancy did he _aliow his mind to entertain. He was . a of likening his suite pf office rooms te ’the bottom of a ship. The rooms Were three in number, with a door open- ing from one to another. These doors - €ould also be closed. “Ships,” Lawyer Gooch would say, “are constructed for safety, with sep- 3 . arate, water-tight compartments in their bottoms. If one compcrtment springs a leak fills with water; but the good hor goes on unhurt. Were it not for the separating bulkheads one leak would -@ink the vesse). Now it often happens that while I am occupied with clients, '-other clients with conflicting tterests call. With the assistance of Archibald— an office boy with a future—I cause the _ Gangerous influx to be diverted into sep- ' &rate compartments,, while I sound with - my legal plummet the depth of each. If necessary, they may be baled into the hallway and permitted to escape by way _f the stairs, which we may term the lee scuppers. Thus the good ship of business is kept afloat; whereas if the _ €lement that supports her were allowed to mingle freely in her hold we might ‘be swamped—ha, ha, ha!’’ The law is dry. Good jokes are few. ; _ ‘Burely it might be permitted Lawyer ’ Gooch te mitigate the bore of briefs, the - tedium of torts and the prosiness of with even so light a levy up- en the good property of humor. Lawyer Gooch’s practice leaned large- ly to the settlement of marita) infelici- ties. Did matrimony languish ‘hrough * ®omplications, he meditated, soothed and arbitrated. Did it suffer from impll- cations, he readjusted, defended and championed. Did it arrive at the ex- tremity of duplications, he always got light sentences for his clients. But not al s was Lawyer Gooch the keen, armed, wily belligerent, ready with his two-edged sword to lop off the shackles of Hymen. He had been known td build up instead of demolish- ‘dng, to reunite instead’ of severing, to lead erring and foolish ones back into the fold instead of scattering the flock. at a handspring. Lawyer Gooch arose from his chair. ft : .“Mrs. Billings,” he said courteously, “allow me to conduct you into the ad- joining office apartment for a few\min- utes. I am expecting a very wealthy old gentleman on business connected with a ee will. In a very short while I will join “You tre Phineas C.

He carried in one hand a small satchel, which he set down upon the floor beside the chair which the lawyer placed for him. His clothing was of good quality, but it was worn without regard to neatness or stvle, and appeared to be covered with dust of travel. “You cases,’’ ‘My name is Gooch,” at saith the rer admitted.

I am a plain aman of business. I will be as brief as possible. We will first take up the hypo- theitcal woman. We will say she is married uncongenially. In many ways ‘she is a superior woman. Physically she is considered to be handsome. She is devoted to what she calls literature —poetry and prose, and such stuff. Her husband is a platn man in the business walks.of life. Their home has not been happy, although the husband has tried to make it so. Some time ago a man— a stranger—came to the peaceful town in which they lived and engaged in some real-estate operations. This woman met him. and became unaccountably infatu-: ated with aim. Her attentions became so open that the man felt the commun- ity to be no safe place for him. so he left it. She abandoned husband and home, and followed him. She forsook her home, where she was provided with every comfort, to follow this man who had inspired her with such a strange affection. Is there anything more to be deplored,” concluded the client, R a trembling voice, “than the wrecking of | nee by a woman's uncalculating oO y ‘? Lawyer Gooch delivered the cautious opinion that there was not. “This man she has gone to join,’’ re- sumed the visitor, ‘‘is not the man to make her happy.-It is a wild and foolish self-deception that makes her think he will. Her husband, in spite of their many disagreements, !s the only one capable of dealing with her sensitive and pecullar nature. But this she does not realize now.’”’ “Would you consider a divorce the logical cure in the case you present?’ asked Lawyer Gooch, who felt that the conversation was wandering too far from the field of business. “A divorce!” exclaimed“the client, feel- ingly—almost tearfully. “No; no—not that.

My brother thinks I should not marry him because he is a foreigner and I am an American. What shall I do?’’ The difference in your nationalities cannot matter if you are temperamental- ly suited to the young man you love. Opened Letters.

Here is one for my girls M Dear girls, do not allow young men to kiss you unless you are I receive many letters on this subject. Jane will say ‘‘she does not see any harm in it.’’ Mary will declare ‘‘the girls who do not allow young men to kiss them are unpopular,’’ and Maude will write me ‘‘only old maids and prudes are never kissed, and it is all nonsense to say kissing is wrong.’ My dears, believe me, it is NOT all nonsense to preserve your dignity Maybe it is not always ‘4wrong’’ in the strict sense of the word, but believe me, jit. is very, very foolish.

If you are old enough to receive letters you are old enough to open them. Another Girl. M P. writes: “I am in lové with.a ® young man and engagéd ‘to mar- ry him. He used to call steadily ‘upon ‘Written for the Post-Dispatch By Betty | another girl before he was engaged to me. Then he apparently gave her up, but recently he has been calling upon her again. Is this right?’’ Have a plain talk with the young man about the other girl and find out exactly how he feels. If he cares more for her than he does for you it is better for you to find it out at once. A Quarrel. Lu. writes: “I have had a quarrei ®with the young man I lové. “We were both at fault. He will not make the first advan toward a reconcilia- tion. So, Go you tn s+ woul be un- womanly for me to de 580: Not at all.

She drinks intoxicating liquors. And I do not ap- Vineenf. prove of this. What shall I do?’ Explain kindly to the young lady why you do not approve of the habit, and ask her if she does not think enough of you to give it up. Not Attentive. ; : “A man I know has V A. writes » told me he loves me and I told him I loved him. But he does not pay much attention to me. -In fact, he is more attentive to another girl. This makes me very sad. What shall I do?” Treat the young man indifferently and do‘not feel that you should accept his attegtions unless he is willing to confine them to you. A Bad Temper. R I. writes: “I like a little girl very e much, but she has a terrible temper. For that reason I have ceased to call, because when I did we vould, frequently quarrel and sne wou come very insulting.

travel and weariness. Twice during the pursuit I saw her, but various circum- Stances prevented our having an inter- view. Will you undertake this mission for me, Mr. Gooch, and earn my ever- lasting gratitude?” “It is true,’ said Lawyer Gooch, frowning slightly at the other’s last words, but immediately calling up an expression of virtuous benevolence, “that on a number of occasions I have been successful in persuading couples who sought the severing of their matri- monial bonds to think better of their rash intentions and return to their homes reconciled. But I assure you that the work is often exceedingly difficult. The amount of argument, perseverance, and, if I may be allowed to say it, eloquence that it requires would aston- ish you. But this is a case in which my sympathies would be wholly enlist- ed. I feel deeply for you, sir, and I would be most happy to see husband and wife reunited. But my time,’”’ conclud- ed the lawyer, tooking at his watch as if suddenly reminded of the fact, ‘“‘is valuable.”’ “TIT am aware of that,’ said the client, “and if you will take the case and per- suade Mrs. Billings to return home and leave the man alone that she is fol- lowing—on that day I will pay you the sum of $1 I have made a little mon- ey in real estate during the recent boom in Susanville, and I will not. begrudge that amount.”’ “Retain your seat for a few moments, please,” said Lawyer Gooch, arising, and again consulting his watch. “I have another client woiting in an ad- joining room whom I iad very nearly forgotten. I will return in the briefest possible space.’ The situation was now one that fully satisfied Lawyer Gooch’s love of in- tricacy and complication. He revelled in cases that presented such subtle prob- lems and possibilities. It pleased him to think that he was master of the hap- piness of the three individuals who sat, unconscious of one another’s presence, within reach. His old figure of the ship glided into his mind. But now the fig- ure failed, for to, have filled every com- partment of an actual vessel would have been to endanger her safety; while here, with his compartments full, his ship of affairs could but sail on to.the ad- vantageous port of a fine, fat fee. The thing for him to do, of course, was to wring the best bargain he could from some one of his anxious cargo. First he called to the office boy: ‘Lock the outer door, Archibald, and admit no one.’’ -Tnen he moved. with long, silent strides into the room in -which client number one waited. That gentie- man sat, patiently scanning the pictures in- the magazine, with a cigar in his mouth and his feet upon a table, ‘Well,”” he remarked cheerfully, as the lawyer entered, “‘have you made up your mind? Does $500 go for getting the fair lady a divorce?” oe hundred is my limit, I tell you. “Just Say fd

Guess I'll have to hunt up a cheaper lawyer.”’ The client put on his hat. “Out this way, please,’’ said Lawyer Gooch, opening the door that led into the hallway. As the gentleman flowed out of the compartment and down tne stairs, Law- yer Gooch smiled to himself. “Exit Mr. Jessup,’’ he murmured, as he fingered the Henry Clay tuft of hair at his ear. ‘And now for the forsaken husband.”’ assumed a businesslike manner. “Tt understand,” he said to client num- ber three, “‘that you agree to pay $1000 if I bring about, or am instrumental in bringing about, the return of Mrs. Bil- lings to her home, and her abandonment of her infatuafed pursuit of the man for whom she has conceived such a vi- olent fancy. Also that the case is now unreservedly in my hands on that basis. Is that correct?’’

He returned to the middle office, and eagerly.

‘“‘And I can. produce the cash any time at two“hours’ notice.’ Lawyer Gooch stood up at his full height. His thin figure seemed to ex- pand. His thumbs sought the armholes of his vest. Upon his face was a look of sympathetic benignity that he always wore during such undertakipgs. “Then sir,” he said, in kindly tones, “IT think I can promise you an early relief from your troubles.

East St. Louis Bowlers Eager |

to Meet Local Tenpinners Charley Houser Defeats Al Jellison in Special Match and Issues Defi for Himself and East Side Experts.

Following the victory of Charley Hou- ser, manager of the Arcade alleys in East St. Louis, in a speci] tenpin match over Al Jellison of St. Louis, East Side bowlers are chesty and hurl ‘a sweep- ing defi at tocal bowlers. Jellison and other. St. Louis tenpin experts are in- vited to invade the city dcross the river at any time. The Houser-Jellison match was the outcome of a contest’ between the ex- perts last week, when Jellison won from the East Sider. Houser asked for a return matg¢b. Jellison agreed, and was given a good beating. Houser rolled sensational tenpins. Houser Rolls 2060 Total. In the 10 games, he totaled 2060 pins, giving him an average of 206. Houser failed to make an error in the 10 games. That’s a record of which any bowler may be proud. Jellison’s score. was 1853. Because of his victory in the first match, Jellison is said to have wagered heavily on his chances in the return contest. He was accommodated for ev- ery dollar he put up. age Houser announces that he is ready to meet all-comers at the Arcade alleys from now on. It is probable that sev- eral matches will result from the Je)- lison-Houser clashes. The East St Louisans have the fever and special team “matches will likely be arranged also. The Stifels, leaders in the Commercial League, will meet the Granite City team in a special match in Granite City Mon. day afternoon. The local tenpinners have been shooting in excellent form a etinsntiaeetalie aa « a — ee

recently and expect to pick up some easy money. The Stifel lineup will be chosen from Heibert, ° Antheny, Lilly. Jarrett, Pitts and Giessow. Martin Kern, who will have charge of the construction of the alleys in the Coliseum Building for the American Bowling Congress tournament this month, Says it will require but a week’s time to put in the drives. Master Painter's night af the A. B. C. has been set for Jan. 31. Secretary A. Lj Langtry of the A. B. C. has granted the local “daubers” that evening on which the painter teams will roll. A big delegation of members is expected to attend. Five hundred tickets have been purchased. Baker? League Scores. Three 2-1 matches resulted in the American Bakers’ League round on the De Soto Pine Alleys Sunday. The Yankees took two from the Buster Browns while ~ the Bismarks and Baby Labels defeated the Main Of- fice team and the Butter Krusts, re- spectively, by the same scores, In the Junior Cocked Hat League, Weilda heads the list in bowling 75 games with an average of 52.65, having a lead of over one point on Hirsch, the second man. Weida’s percentage of cocked pins is 1.63 and per- centage of misses 2.52. Hirsch only rolled in 70 games, his average being 61.41. His per- centage of cocked pins is 1.68 and percent- age of misses 2.70. 4... Rogge is third with an average of 51.16. i In the Office Men’s League West leads with an average of 51.98, which is only .24 better than L. Rogge’s mark. West’s per- centage of cocked pins is 1.41, ieee Eee | HERRMANN SURE TO RETAIN JOB National Commission Has Little Business to Transact at An- nual Meeting. CINCINNATI, Jan. 2.—The annual meeting of the National Baseball Com- mission will be held here tomorrow at the Laughrey Club, where the mag- nates will be the guests of President Garry Herrmann of the Cincinnati club, who is also chairman of the commission, for a day or two. Little real busingss will be transacted for there is practically nothing to do except elect a chairman. As Herrmann is certain of re-election, this matter wil! be attended to in short order. President Ban Johnson of the American League will nominate him, John E. Bruce will second the motion and the deed will be done. ‘ Then President Lynch of the National League will nominate John E. Bruce for secretary, Mr. Herrmann will second the motion and the commission will be ready for another year of strenuous labor. All the business of the year has been cleared up, anu the meeting of the com- mission will be a good deal in the na- tura of a formality. Not socially, how- ever. Already wagon loads of sausage, embracing the 18 leading varieties recom- mended by the most cultured Bohemian epicures, strings of suckling pigs of a delicious fatness, crates of spare ribs, ‘bushels of delicatessen and barrels of the lucious fruit of the sauerkraut tree may be seen wending their way down the river road toward the famous clubhouse. Certain careful tinklings from some of the vehicles indicate the presence of glassware, and every one knows that empty bottles are not hauled 26 miles by intelligent people. So it is evident that the wants of the inner man will be supplied while the magnates are s0- journing on the banks of the Ohio. In addition to the National Commission meeting a meeting of the Joint Schedule

| SOME OFF-SEASON BASEBALL |

President Tom Chivington has issued a call for the annual meeting of the American As- sociation. It will be held at thes Congress Hotel, Chicago. Jan. 12. It is sai@ that Joe O’Brien, former president, will be - candi- date for the presidency. Tommy Connolly. the American League umpire, is very giad he does business with Ban Johnson. ‘‘Why,”’ says Tommy, “this eye test for umpires is all a joke. It’s the magnates who should have their eyes tested. They strain them counting the kale. I’d like to know how anybody can properly judge a play from a distance of 100 feet.’’ Washington scribes scout the idea that Jerry Freeman will be brought back from ‘the minors to play first base for the Sen- ators. According to their dope Freeman will be lucky if he sticks in Olass A company. Bert Daniels, the phenom. uncovered by thé New York Highlanders early last sum- mer, faded out toward the close of the sea- son. After the pitchers on the other teams found out that Bert could not connect safe- ly with a curve his batting dropped to a mere shadow of what it was in the early weeks, Pat Donovan, who returned from his Bu- ropean wedding trip filled with confidence for the coming year, says he is sure Jake Stahl will be back playing first for the Red Sox next year. @ Says no.

In an interview in San Jose, Oal., Hal Chage, manager of the Yankees, gave the lie to a story originating on the coast to the effect that Harry Wolter was te be cast | adrift by the Highlanders. Chase expressed an opinion that Wolter would prove one of the most valuable outfielders in the Ameri- can League the coming seasc Hugh Jennings believes thé Wea-spot of the Tigers lies at first base, owing to. the questionable poip: of Tom Jones being able to stand the strain of a hard season. Jen- ning§ will make an effort to secure George, Stovall from Cleveland, as Stovall for sev- eral seasons has been dissatisfied with the Forest City. Jennings has not despaired of doing. business with. McGuire despite... the fact that the ‘‘Deacon’’ recently refused to turn over Stovall for Outfielder Matty Mcintyre. % Garry Herrmann is going to keep in fast company a few players who evidently ‘do not look good to National League owners. He has put in claims for Second Baseman Dave Shean and Outfielder Fred Beck, on whom the new Doves management recently. asked waivers. The owner of the Reds also claimed Vic Willis, the pitcher on whom Roger Bresnahan asked waitvers. He did this on the advice of Manager Clarke Griffith, now on his way to Redland from his Mon- tana ranch. a ——s

The promise of its first act is at it will be so developed. “he second act, however, revokes this ‘tse by becoming so “‘telky’’ as to rgely a bore.

Some similar ambition must have in- spired the man who recruited the Ama- zons in the chorus of “Two Men and a Girl.” Speaking of the chorus, its cos- tumes in the first act deserve the at- tentions of a laundress, as their cond@i- tion gives the entire act a shabby set- ting. SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA “SUNDAY POP.” The leading features of the program of yesterday afternoon's popular concert by the Symphony Orchestra at the Odeon were the Scharwenka “Concerto in F Minor?’ and the Richard Strauss “Restival March.” The entire program was keenly appreciated by the “Sunday Pop” audience. Its other pleasing features were the overture to Flotow's “Martha,” the “Kin Marchen”’ and ‘‘Mondscheingaub- er’ of Gustav Strube, the intermezzo from Delibes’ ‘‘Naila,’’ the overture to Wagner's ‘Rienzi’ and Ziehrer’s ‘‘Vien- na Beauties” waltz.
