So emphatic, so ex- traordinary are the reductions that they cannot fail to arouse the liveliest interest among householders everywhere who can reach the store. Those who know the Vandervoort Furniture Department do not need to be told of the quality and individuality that characterize every piece, and these same people will be among the first to reap the benefits. Positive qua ality livked to equally positive oped reductions form a combination in this sale that is irresistible to those i in any way interested in furniture buying.

Anarchistic literature was also iscovered. Since then a determined attempt had been made to round the men, the auumber of which is a matter of doubt. Three suspects, all Russian, were and are now held in the charge of having’ been connected with e killing of the three policemen. The police investigation connected the band with well-known anarchists ~"~~_, and it was believed a demonstration was planned for the coro- * June. ported that one member of the band had made a trip to Ameri- ombs and materials for Ee them.

Wetinpinicns Tries 1 “to Cross in Skiff and: Falls _ Into Water When They At- tempt to Walk on the Ice, After the Boat Becomes Jammed. ‘ oe Dr. Paul xy Tupper of 4639 Berlin avenue was rescued Monday evening from Growning in the Mississippi River near _ Elsberry, Mo., 60 miles nerth of St. Louis. He and two com- panions tried to cross the river in a skiff and it became jammed in the ice. It was when they tried to walk to shore on the ice that the surgeon went through. In pulling Dr. Tupper out, one of his companions went into the water. It was half an hour before the three, half frozen, reached the shore and safety, according to a news telegram to the Post-Dispatch from Elsberry. Dr, Tupper went Sunday to operate on the child of a friend who lives across He started home Monday and decided, in order to take a short cut, te walk 12 miles from the friend’s house to the Mississipp! River, and row across in a skiff. His friend accompanied him, with a farm- hand. Six feet tall and of robust sievubinte, Dr. Tupper bore the long walk threugh the biting cold with ease. His companions manned the oars in the skiff and he sat tn the stern with his surgical case be- tween his knees, when the boat started on its perilous trip among the floating fee cakes. Approaching the Missouri shore, the ice floes thickened, and then the skiff jammed between them. The oarsmen tried to break a path for it, but could) not. They concluded therefore that the ice was strong enough to hold the weight of the party. To diminish the danger, the men de- cided to walk some distance apart. Dr. Tupper went ahead, stumbling over the rough surface in the dark.

INVESTIGATION ORDERED Utilities Commission Instructed to Inquire Into Street and Residence Supply. The Board of Aldermen of Webster Groves has passed a resolution directing the Public Utilities Commission to find out why the Suburban Electric Light and Power Co. is not lighting the streets, in accordance with its contract. It was charged at the meeting of the board that the entire Fourth Ward has been without street lights since Nov. 2%. Alderman W. F. Biederman of the Fourth Ward in Webster Groves intro- duced the resolution. In a statement which he er Alder- man. Biederman declared that the com- pany was not fulfilling its contract to install street lights ordered by the board. He cited several instances where lights ordered last Manch and since have net | been installed. He pointed out a pro- vision in the contract requiring the com- pany to install lights within 90 days after they were ordered. Certain deductions are allowed the city for the time that any lights are not burning, but Councilman Beiderman says that the deductions are not sufficient re- imbursement for the time the lights are out. Biederman complains also that while there has been a decrease in the electric lighting rate te residence con- sumers, the mill are higher each month. The Public Utilities Commission was instructed to investigate both street and residence lighting, and the board decided to appoint a supervisor to test both services. A. C. Einstein, president of the Suburban Electric Light and Power Co., said Tuesday that he was rebuilding the street lighting equipment of Webster Groves and that caused some interrup- tion of service. “We have notified the Board of Alder- men when and where these interruptfons would occur,” said Einstein. PEG LEGGED MAN HOPPING MAD Broke Car Windows Because He Had to Chase It. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—‘‘I see you have but one leg,’’ said Magistrate Breen, in ‘SALOME’ 100 Ml FOR OLDEST SI. “LOUIS POLICEMAN Sergt. Dowd, After 36 Years on the Force, Falls by the Wayside. After seeing Mary Garden’s perfor- mance of Salome at the Coliseum, Police Sergeant Edward Dowd, oldest police- man on the St. ‘Louis force became greatly excited. He tried to make an official report telling how he hag been unable to prevent a company of Roman militia from crushing a woman to death with their shields. ' Overcome with emotion he dropped his pencil and shuddered. ‘It was a horrible murder,” he wailed as he sank into a chair at the Dayton Street Station and went to sleep. Lieut. Walsh suspended Dowd and pre- ferred against him a charge of intoxi- cation. Walsh gave the details of the investigation of Dowd’s conduct. Dowd was one of a special detail of policemen assigned te handle the crowds at the grand opera performance. After the audience was seated he looked in at the show and saw the thrilling climax in which Salome is killed by» Herod’s soldiers. — He fled from the awful scene and did net stop going until he fell exhausted in a bowling alley at Twenty-second street and Franklin avenue. At 1:30 a. m. attaches of the alley tried to start the Sergeant homeward, but he fell on the sidewalk just as two patrolmen came in sight. They took him to the Dayton Street Station where his ineffectual attempt to report the horrible murder of Salome aroused a suspicion that his excitement was due to something else besides grand opera. Dowd slept in the station until 6:30 a. m. when he was taken to his home at 2031 Eugenia street. He was slowly recovering there when a Post-Dispatch reporter saw him. “I can’t remember all that happened,” he said. ‘“I went to the Coliseum un- der orders from Capt. Wilson of the Magnolia District, and I remained there until 11 e’clock, when Sergt. Smith re- lieved me. I was starting home, when I met a young man, whe seemed to know me. He asked me if I would take a drink. I had just one rhine wine and seltzer, but I can’t remem- ber where I drank it. They say they found me at Twenty-second and Frank+ lin avenue. I don’t remember going there. I might have been drugged. Un- til last night I hadn’t taken a drink away from home in 15 years.”’ Dowd became a policeman in 1874, and he has been a sergeant 17 years, his present assignment being in the Mag- nolia District. He has a wife, three daughters and four sons, one of whom is a policeman. : i ce yee : iy 4, = ‘ = mee = | Approves Only Four of the by Ferdinand I. G.

A fleet of steamers presented their cards at Sandy Hook yesterday and last night, but not one dared cross the bar. The big Priscilla of the Fall River line, and other Sound steamers are anchored above Hell Gate where some have been 36 hours. Only one ferry boat sis been able to reach Ellis Island since Sunday night. It took more than an hour to make the 15 minutes’ trip.

Surgeons themselves consider a per- manent cure of piles by a surgical op- eration as very doubtful, and resort to it only when the patient has be- come desperate from long continued ain and agony.

After falling to confirm the appoint- ment of three courtroom clerks by Cir- cuit Clerk Charles R. Graves, the cir- cult judges adjourned a meeting of gen- eral term Monday to Friday. The men under consideration are Charles W. Graves, a sqn of the Circuit Clerk; El- mer Moone, Republican Committeeman from the Twentieth Ward, and George F. Peckham. They were appcinted to take the places of Fred H. Smith, Capt. E. H. Loffhagen and George W. Stine- baker, friends of the regulars in the Re- publican City. Committee. This action is regarded’ by politicians as an echo of the fight between Mayor Kreismann and Chairman Henry W. Kiel of the Republican City Committee. The three men who were dismissed are friends of Kiel, and Graves was aligned with Kreismann in the quarrel. The reappointment by Clerk Graves ef Alexander M. Lewis as chief deputy was approved. AN Local Firm Sucessfully Tries Entirely New Advertising Method. Considerable comment has _ been aroused in the last few days by the ad- vertisements of Spiro & Singer, 710 and 912 North Eighth street. This concern sells nothing but men’s clothes ready to wear, and their advertisements have announced ‘a clearance preparatory to removal. On March 1, 1911, the firm will occupy the ‘entire building at the southeast corner of Seventh and Olive. In every advertisement which they have published recently, there has been mention of reduced prices, but not a single price has been quoted. It has been argued by several advertising mien that this is suicidal—that it is impossible to attract attention and induce men to visit a store unless prices are quoted. Spiro & Singer believe otherwise, and ‘their hold on their patrons is so strong ig | that the store has been crowded every day since the reduction went into force. It has been the publicly announced policy of the firm to avoid the slightest semblance of exaggeration or misstate- all | ment, and the advertising of their clear- ance is in line with this. policy. That any concern can draw crowds of men customers by the mere announce- ment of price reductions speaks well for the quality of merchandise handled, and the manner of caring for the wants of patrons. . > = nee Near High get nr Jan. 3.—The wetien 0 n the United States 0 LM s between 475,000,000 and As 060 000 short tons, a considerabie rease over Ls tat of 459 715. 104 “1908 and near the i s tons | J of ine bottles I am about well. see my neighbors now.

From a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch and New York World. CUMBERLAND, Md., Jan. 3.—More bizarre thaa ever has become the mys- tery of the double tragedy in which - Grace Elosser and Charles Edward Twigg were found sitting side by side on @ sofa in the girl’s home, poisoned to ~ death on the eve of their wedding. Miss Blosser. had been divorced and re sumed ter maiden name. The State Attorney, Coroner Beall and ether members of the community are attempting vainly to offer some so- lution for the mystery. There was no reason apparent in the world for either a man or weman desiring to end their ves. Miss Grace Blosser was 28 years old and had been divorced from a young man named Willison. There is ne doubt that he felt sorely at the time that she ‘dis- missed him and went about getting her |. divorce, but he had sought and found comsolation, for he is married again, according to all reports, most happily. Both Had Been Married. Twigg was prosperous. He had a growing business in a lively West Vir- ginia town and had just purchased an automobile. Twigg’s first wife died a year after his marriage to her. State’s Attorney Robb, since the find- ing of the bodies, has made several visité to the home of the girl’s parents, where he tragedy occurred. He has not spared his questioning in his efforts to arrive at something that might suggest an explanation for what he is positive is a deuble murder. He examined at length the father and mother of the girl and Miss Elosser’s younger sister, Miss May Elosser, who is It was said that she had been the ‘first to meet the handsome and wealthy « Mi ret Grace” and I had. that was several weeks : 2 iewery to do swith: the (4 i ae 2 of her death Iwas ¢ ‘could to assist her in Bing what was gg in the completion ef her trous- “The quarrel was about the hat and | ‘was not serious.

I demurred and we quarreled, but that had all been. forgotten. We were on the best of terms. We met Twigg to- gether at the same time, not as some _ steries have it, that I met him first and afterward introduced him to my sister. From the very first his attentions were - all to Grace. He was always courteous to me, but it was apparent from the beginning that it was to Grace that he was attracted.” Met Last October. | Twigg and the Misses Elosser met ‘ast October, when he came over from eyster, W.

HIRL STARTS LONG ‘WALK TO. REDUCE HER 170 POUNDS WEIGHT | - Dora Harrison Begins 1355-Mile Stroll From New York to - Tampa, Fla. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—Dora Harrison, the 19-year-eld girl, who purposes walk- ing from this city to Tampa, Fia., to win a. purse of $1000, Is on-the second day of her tramp today. She left her home, Ridgewood, L. I., at 10 a. m. Monday, and reached Newark, N. J., at 5:10 p. m. last night, having made about twenty miles. She has only 1355 miles to go now. One reason for the walks is that she wanted te reduce her weight. She weighs 178. Mabel Saunders, a friend, was to have accompanied her, but Dora says she de- veloped a case of “cold feet.” It is also said that Dora's mother wagered $1000 withMoe Hirschfield of Brooklyn that she could make the trip on foot. The conditions were that the girl was to start without any money except enough to pay her fare across the ferry to Jersey City. She will sell picture postcards on the way to pay expenses. She started on the second day’s tramp much encouraged, for the rain and «fog had disappeared.

Ae keynote of “Salome” voices—and exclusively—an appallingly relent- sondemnation of the sensual pagan- at existed at the time of the - eoming to earth. «=. strument of this voicing is the BA tongue of John the Baptist. \e ali-dominating figure of “Sa- s not Salome but John himself, majestic creation drawn in the rerent spirit—and so portrayed er Dufranne in last night's tion. : is merely the accursed thing ‘astly impressive ctory—the in- sin that demands and. receives hment at God’s just hands. . was this doomed and malig- s Ao vir- ni. oot me

But into his desert-worn young face there leaps a look of — at her words. His wasted body stiffens. His wan hands tremble and are swiftly extended,

anathema. And then, suddenly, a deep pity lives in the face of the youthful Prophet where also horror lives—and his voice is heard in the one supremely great and reverential chant of all ‘“Salome’s” score. + “Daughter of adultery, there is but one who can save thee!” this pitying and yet horror-stricken cry rang out through the vast’ Coliseum last night. “It is He of whom I spake. Go seek Him. He is on a boat on the sea of —* and He tajketh with His dis- “34, e% Kneel down on the shore of the 59. call unto Him by His name. Whelee or cometh to thee—and to allf who call.on Him He cometh—bow thy- self at. His feet and ask of Him the re- mission of thy sins!”’ Here, and most compellingly, there is sounded in Richard Strauss’ music as in Oscar Wilde’s poem. the note ef tender- ness and of reverence that gives a sur- passing melody to score and words alike. It firkds an especially astonishing conces- sion in the Strauss score. The musical phrasing of Joha’s loving mention of the Christ—‘‘When He com- eth to thee—and to all who call on Him He cometh”’—is indescr © tremulous with adorati ‘of the Divine Son of God, infinitely pitiful in its of- fering of redemption to the foul girl displaying her body before his unseeing eyes, breaking, pathetically, in wistful sorrow for the world’s sia of which the girl is the embodiment. It was in his utterance of this soul- moving cry that Hector Dufranne caused John to become, instantly, and for all time in t memory of his heaxers, un- deniably : greatest of ‘“‘Salome’s”’ fig- ures, the one around which all its story revolves and in whose martyrdom for the Faith the opera, the drama, music and poem alike, find their highest justification. Dufranne himself .claimed and attained greatness at this supreme moment of the ‘‘Salome’’ night. The daughter of Herodias played by Mary Garden, red-haired, crimson-lipped of malignant beauty, beer. e an indel-- ible creation with tage e. oalng's pro- Bress. In the flight from the lustful Herod which first brings her upoh the stage she was as some wild and fierce thing of primal life. It was not the flight of virtue made fugitive by vice. It was the loathing escape of a sensual girl from a repellant male. This truth became evident when, but a moment or so ‘ater, her eyes feasting’ upon the skin-clad figure of John the Baptist, a passionate and undisguised carnal love gripped her soul ahd made itself instantly audible ina brazen woo- ing of the holy ascetic. From that moment, too, the shadow of tragedy fell upon Salome’s brow. John prophetically, saw this shadow and voiced his vision of it in conjunction | with every curse leveled at the girl’s pagan soul. Herod felt this shadow~ “There is a wind that blows—I hear in the air something that is like the beat- ing of wings—like the beating of vast wings!"—and never was the shadow lifted thereafter. \ The tragic power revealed in Mary Garden's interpretation emphasized this sense of impending and inevitable doom.* Her voice ‘was the utterance of trag- edy itself, her face a tragic mask—and when, at the play’s final moment, with one cry of blended love and vengeance, with one hand resting upon the bloody hair of John the Baptist, the girl Sa- lome goes down to death under the heaped shields of Herod’s soldiers, last night's Coliseum audience had wit- nessed an achievement in uttermost’ tragedy - beside which the Phedre of Sarah Bernhardt’s playing alone justly may be classed for sincere greatness. And to this achievement of Mary Gar- den as Salome had been attuned throughout the night, an ofchestral per- formance that creates a new art of drama told in music. The evening is never to be forgotten. As for the lewd dance and the passion-solling desecra- tion of the one sacred figure in “‘Sa- lome,” they do not exist as we had been led to believe they existed.

seen the much heralded and much Heroded Salome with Mary Garden in the title part. Salome is nothing to get overheated about;"* was the Chief’s verdict. “It is just a nice little show. Of course I’m no expert on opera or dramatic art but I've seen a lot worse shows than Sa- lome. I didn’t see anything offensive in it. It might be different to a person. who. has imagination. In my judgment Mary Garden did nothing which might be construed as a breach of the peace. “I know my judgment is different from that of Chief Stewart of the Chicago police. When I learned that he had suppressed Salome there I wrote to the Coliseum management. The performance here may have been toned down. I don't know about that, but I am sure that! I saw nothing last night that called for police interference.’”’ Quick Action Prescription Cures Colds in a Day The best and quickest prescription known to medical science for colds and covghs is as follows. ‘‘Get two ounces of Glycerine and half an ounce of Concentrated Pine compound.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. . NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—Although Vienna has had a monopoly in the successful musical cOmedies that have reachea Broadway during the last few months, among them being “The Spring Maid,” “Madame Troubadour,” “Madame Sher- ry,” ‘‘The Girl and the Kaiéger,”’ and many others, all the light entertainments do not hafl from there, as proved by “The Slim Princess,”’ with Miss Hisie Janis at the Globe Theater last night. If George Ade had not once written a humorous story about a lean Turkish Princess who wanted to grow fat, Henry Blossom of St. Louis probably would never have written this opera and draped it about the spare form of Miss Janis, who grows taller every day, but not a bit thicker. The Idea Is Borrowed. — Having borrowed the-idea and given Ade credit, Blossom proceéds on an idea or two of his own. ‘There are three acts of bright, rapid-fire dialogue, which prove -very entertaining with Miss Janis, Joseph Cawthorne, Joseph Miron, Queénie Vassar -and Hlizabeth Brice in the principal roles. Lesiie Stuart, who wrote “Filorodora” and founded the alumnae of origina) sex- tette girls, which has now multiplied to thousands, compesed the music which goes with “The Slim Princess.” That is to say, he recomposed “Viorodora,” for there is hardly a tune in the new piece snek Seems Neny e Deniiag resaealianee to the older one. The Lesson in Love, for instance, is the sextette’s half sister. The caddy song in the second act is its little breth- er. And aoe other song in the plece is far enough away from ‘“Filorodora” to be less than a cousin to it. Musically It Is Slim. All this, of course, is equivalent to say- ing that ‘‘The Slim Princess,”’ musically, doesn’t amount to much. Least ef all things is it original, but even if it were a musical masterpiece couldn’t sing a note of it. Her voice— what little there ever was of it—has de- serted her completely, but it left her the same rollicking little comedienne. of old. Joseph Cawthorme was clearer as the Princess Kalora’s German tutor. musical hits of the night were Dixie Land by Miss Brice and Charies King, and My Yankee Doodle Girl, which Wal- lace McCutcheon sang, with futile at- tempts by Miss Janis to follow somewhat tt in not too sim to last for many weeks on Broadway. | NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 3.—The Cath- rm SAYS HE HAD TD jand since their appointment a month Miss Janis’ The: ea ‘Only Evening Paper i in St, Lonis With the.

Joseph Martin, who killed his best friend, Jesse Cherry, in a saloon duel at Jefferson avenue and Rutger street, Monday, told a Post-Dispatch reporter at the city. hospital Tuesday that he used his revolver in self-defense. “I am sorry I had to kill my friend,’’ be said, “but he attacked me with a knife and cut me three times, before I shot him. He would have killed me if I had not shot him.” Martin and Cherry were night watch- men for the Missouri Pacific Railroad, ago they had been together nearly all the time, according to Martin. Martin is 27 years old and lives at 4201 Page boulevard. Cherry was 2% years old and lived with his wife and child at 2624 Rutger street.

A scholar- ship in any college within the State his parents may select has been awarded him. By arriving in the world just as the chimes rang out the old year, Josephus established a prior claim over five other young gentlemen about his own age, on the prize offered by the Ladies’ Auxiliary of a maternity hospital here, to the first child of 1911. The other five were a few -minutes earlier, but they made the race interesting for the family Hymovitz. HAND IN ICE DISCLOSES CRIME Body of Man Is Found Beneath Stream’s Surface. MORRISTOWN, N. J., Jan. 3—A hu- man hand thrust upward through the ice that covered a small stream near here led last night to the discovery of the body of an unidentified man be- neath the frozen surface. The head had been battered and crushed. ! Near the body was found an ax, with clots of blood and human. hair on the blade. a we EE “¥ > a an gp en A ~ ACCUSES FRIEND OF INSULT-T0 HIS WIFE THEY Ga Both Are apnea’ and.

While Mrs. Anthony Thauvenot, clerk of the Dayton Street Police Court, who until six months ago was Miss Blanch Ross, was walking down Walnut street to see her husband at his tobacco store, 611 Walnut street, she met Twombley of the Ivy House. According to the story told by her, Twombley bowed, tipped his hat and spoke te her. Mrs. Thauvenot tipped her chin a little higher and went on down to the to- bacco store. She told her husband what had hap- pened, and when Twombley sauntered by a moment later Thauvenot recognized him as an acquaintance. *He beckoned to Twombley to stop and informed him it was Mrs. Thauvenot he had spoken to. Ife expected Twombley to apologize. but he declared that Twombley said he aid not care whether she was Mra. Thauve- not. or not. Whereupon Thauvenot struck Twombley in the eys. Policeman Kenny arrested both and took them to pelice headquarters, where they were cross-charged with disturbing the peace. Thauvenot was reieased ob bond, but Twombley was lecked up over night. | When the case was called in the Clark Avenue Folice Court ‘Tuesday Mrs. Thauvenot would not prosecute Twom- bley, and although he protested his in- nocence ahd wanted to be tried, Judge Tracy continued both charges generally.

ST.LOUIS POST- DISPATCH, Feundea by JOSEPH PULITZER, Dec. 12, 1978. cle on the new charter in the Sunday Post-Dis- i Published by the Pulitser Publishing Cen patch, was his admission that the only sugges- eager tion he had made—a provision for the classifying _ SUBSCRIPTION RATES is BY’ MAIL IN ADVANCE 3 and Sunday, one she of property for taxation—was rejected, coupled y only, oe Hep OT with the statement that he would support it on weler or St Lo account of other provisions which make for prog- ress. Mr. Judson exemplifies the wise attitude of practical compromise on non-essential points in which is yleldéd someching of personal views and desires for the common good. On the part of some representatives of radical opinion we find condemnation of the néw charter because it does not go far enough. Putting aside consideration of the wisdom of radical de- mands and the possibility of convincing the public of their wisdom, the folly of the radical element appears in the rejection of steps in the direction of their ideals. Although the new charter does not go far enough to suit them it goes far. The old charter meets none of their demands and if they wait for one that conforms to all they may wait in vain. Advocates of the recall, initiative and referen- dum object that the new charter falls short of the best standard of progress in the direction of popular contro] of govérnment.

BULTOOTH. Women Are Economical. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If the persons who always talk or write about economy could only see to what a degree it is practiced in the homes of the rich they would shut up about it. I have worked in various hemes in the West End of this city for 10 years, and I don’t see where the extravagance comes in, when there is often’ not enough food left for the maid, especially meat, much less ig there any thrown away. Tea and buttered toast often con- stitutes the midday lunch; thé maid, who prob- ably has been working hard all morning, gets nothing else, either. These rich (7?) ladies fuss about a 10-cent scrubbing brush if it wears out too soon, or willfully neglect’ to bring home a 10-cent bottle of vanilla, so the cake has to be baked without it, to save the few cents. They do not use a dollar a day for food, because. if they did they could set a bountiful table for four persons, perhaps a little more in summer, when more fruit and vegetables are bought. For the few cents that are to be saved at bargain sales they run all day and wear them- No man, or very few of them, would think of running like that for a few cents. If economy is needed, preach it to the men; it is more necessary. They think. nothing of throw- ing a dollar away, provided it is for themselves; many @ man who earns between $700 and $800 a year takes $4 a week for his spending money, which is too much-—2 a week is enough for any poor man to spend. Get after the men agd quit harping on the woman all the time. MRS. 8. The Eternal Money Problem. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We hear old-timers remark, with all the dog- matism of corner grocery debates, that they used to work for 60 cents a day severally—and have “prospered.” They forget that 50 cents a day in their times equaled as much as $1.50 today. The absolute necessities of the present are three-fold. what they were in the past: This applies to the laborer’s cot as well as to the palatial man- sion. The very air cries money; and as congress- men raise their salaries, without outside pres- gure, why dannot laborers: get into the game, Nigus, Mo, BSIDNEY AVERILL Bible in the Schools. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The other day in a case at court in sadminis- tering an oath to a child about 15 years old, this child acknowledged that he did not know what the Bible was. How many more of the children are there in the same fx? The Holy Bible is the groundwork of our whole legal system and at thé foundation of our country itself. As most of the’ states are passing “compulsory educational laws, I think that the Bible should be studied in connection with the literary branches just ‘a3 a classic and as a code of morals, and we might even include in this branch some of the' best moral teachings of other religions.

water mark, $158,000,000, had been reached in 1898. There was a decline to $139,000,000, and the probabilities were cited to show that it would con- tinue. But there was a new high water mark in 1909, $162,000,000. And now the House Committee on Pensions has agreed on a bill which, it is esti- mated would iricrease the expendi- tures to nearly $200,000,000 annually by increasing the service ‘pension rate. . Under thé proposed law the appli- cant would not have to furnish proor of ‘disability. Every honorably dis- charged soldier who served not less than 90 days ip the Civil War or 60 days in the Mexican War would be entitled to a pension on reaching the age of 62, and the rates are graded at $16, $20, $25 and $36 a month, ac- cording to age, not rank, as against old rates of $12, $15 and $20.

PRESERVING INDIAN LANGUAGE. From the Portland Oregonian. Stevens Savage, the last living male representative of the Molalla Indians, passed through Portland recently en route to the Siletz Indian Reeserva- tion, where he will join Dr. Frachten- berg and will teach the doctor the Melalia Indian language for preser- ‘vation in the Smithsonian Institution at Washington. Dr. Frichtenberg been among the Indians of this coast for a num- ber of years studying their languages for record at Washington. The Indian, now 623 years of age, did not want to be discovered, and it wag only after Supt. Egbert of the Siletz tribe, had interested other In- dians in the search that the redskin was located at Woodland, Wash. Mr. Egbert called on Savage and induced him to furnish. the information wanted.

THE PLOW HORSE GOING. From the National Magazine. Within 10 yéars approximately 8,000,009 acres of farm land in the United States and Western Canada have been taken away from the horse ang turned over to the steam and fue] engine to be plowed. The farm- ers of Illinois, Iowa, Indiana and other parts of the corn belt are be- ginning to follow the example set by the owners of larger farms in the newer prairie sections.

In McCulloch’s limousine— That’s the way to get about; It's a cumbersome machine, And the type is going out; But for comfort on the route, And for getting on the scene With a minimum of peril, Take McCulloch’s limousine. There are fashfonable cars, Where a few fat financiers Smoke their 50-cent cigars While a fellow for’ard steers; But we don’t shed many tears, For the gulf that lies between While the rest of us are riding In McCulloch’s limousine; There are open touring ‘cars With the occupants exposed, But we thank our lucky stars That McCulloch’s car is closed; There are malcontents disposed To be critica! and mean, But the rest of us are grateful For McCulloch’s limousine. THHD BURDEN OF WEALTH. Let us make no mistake about the burden of wealth. Mr. Rockefeller, who has more of it than anyone else in the world, is spry as a 2-year-old at 72. AnGrew Carnegie, who is almost as rich, is coming and going at 76. Al- most the oldest man in any community, barring old colored men of the Uacle Remus variety whose ages are largely legendary, is the richest man in it. Probably a persevering statistician could discover that age is in the end actually determined by our temporal possessions, subject, of course, to the usual exoep- tions. The pursuit of wealth has never been given its whole due. It is, tn’ fact, the very secret of long life. and the arch plutocrat who gets it all in the end will probably never die at all. Patho-

The victim. of mental depression must go to work on his imagination and curb it. Imaginary advantages are treason. You picture to yourself what you hope for, you dwell on the advantageous fea- tures of the outlook till they seem real. You lose the bearings of fact. Then into this rosy future you march quite iil prepared for the obstacles. For it is a trick of the air-castle mood to eharm and entertain us. We enjoy the day dream and indulge it.

er Continuance of Case Re- fused by Court.

LANCASTER, Mo., Jan. 2.—Mrs. Alma H. Vaughn and Dr. James R. Hull, ac- cused of the murder of Prof. John T. Vaughn, nearly a year ago, were freed of the charges against them, in the Circuit Court, here, yesterday. Their cases were nolle-pressed by Prosecut- ing Atterney Reiger of Adair County, after Judge Shelton had refused to grant the further continuance asked by the State. The announcement was greeted with applause by the friends fo Mrs. Vaughn and Dr.’ Hull, who erowded the court- room, The widow appeared uncon- cerned when she understood that she was no longer held on a murder charge. Inabiilty of Dr. Paul Schweitzer of the State University, the prosecution’s poison expert. to be present caused the request for a continuance. Prosecutor Rieger introduced affidavits to this ef- fect, and Dr. E. B. Clements ef Ma- con, a member of the medical commis- sion appointed in Nevember to exam- ine Dr. Schweitzer, testified that in his judgment the expert never would be in condition to take the stand. In refusing the continuance Judge Shelton said he believed Dr. Schweitzer, who is more than 80 years old, never weuld be able to appear in court. Rei- ger’s term as Presecutor expired today. and it is likely that no further action will be taken in the case, Mrs. Vaughn was accompanied to the courtroom by her mother, her sister Mre. James Johnson, and Mrs. Alice Blodgett” of..8t. Louis. |

By ROBERT EDGREN. A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—Mr. McIntosh, the Australian promoter, is having a busy time in London, where he has just established a boxing club that outranks the famous National Sporting Club. In fact, the National has felt his compe- tition so completely that it has been compelled to build an enlargement of its arena. Here is a letter ftom Mr. Mc- Intosh that just about covers the box- ing situation in England: ‘‘Walter House, Bedford Street, Strand, London, W. C.—Robert Edgren, Esq.: Dear Bob;I have taken Olympia Annex for a season. The arena is un- guestionably the finest in the world. It is capable of seating 8000 people, and everyone is provided with a fixed chair. English Fans Like Lang. “Lang has created a wonderful im- pression in England, both on account of his wonderful physical development as well as on account of his wonderful personality. His residence, short as it was in America, appears to have enabled him to furnish up in a surprising maa- ner. “When we first landed in England we expressed our readiness on his behalf to meet any of the English heavyweights. None were fourthcoming, an@ we were afraid that Bill Lang would not have an opportunity of showing the English press his prowess. Fortunately, Jack Burns has appeared on the scene and although he, too, had expressed the de- side to meet any English heavyweight,. he.could not\be accommodated. ‘He then accepted the challenge we had out and the match was accordingly made. i snall match Burns with the winner of the Wells-Moir match, which takes place at the Olympia Jan. $11. This should provide a very good contest. “I was hopeful that Tommy Burns would have come across and met Lang As a matter of fact, I counted on this match in making my negotiations here. It uld have proved a terrific draw and Would have meant very big money for Tommy. He has, however, told me Wants Wolgast and Moran. that his leg is in a bad way and he will not be able to fight again. “At the present time I am in nego- tiations for a match between W'olgast an@ Owen Moran and am offering 4 purse ef $15,000, with transportation from America to England for four per- sons. This match, I am sure, will draw well. “Lang's next »pponent will in ail probability be Sam MacVey. This will take place in either Paris or London. lam Paris would be a more profit- able center, as; /MacVey is a terrific draw there. da ‘they meet I cer- tainly favor a chances, and I shail ranean», dom syndrome

a between these two men. “Before the expiration of my lease J hope to match the winner of that con- test with Sam Langford. Should it be Langford and Lang I feel cenfident, in saying that the English public will have an opportunity of witnessing one of the finest fights that has been scheduled for a long time. Seeks Man to Defeat Johnson, ‘TIT am still in negotiation with Jack Johnson and will pit the winner of the ‘Lang-Langferd bout against him, and once more we will have an opportunity of determining whether there is a man capable of wresting the coveted title from Johnson. “Papke, as you know, is in Australia and I have cabled for him to ceme di- rect to London meeting Jim Sullivan for the middle. weight championship of the world. J am also anxious that Clabby should ac. company Papke and will match hin against Harry Lewis for the welter- weight championship. — “This, of course, will semewhat ée- plete the contingent at present in Aus- tralia, and it will be necessary fer me te book up a further team ef fighters, not enly to take their piace, but alse for the next season. ‘My advices from Australia are to the effect that the game is Sooming and I: am now on the_ lookout for suitable men to send out. “With renewed regards and good wishes, I am, yours truly, “HUGH M. McINTOSH.” COACH ANDY SMITH MAKES THREAT TO QUIT QUAKERS PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3.—It will by no means an easy task that ao, fronts Penn’s reorganized football com- mittee when it takes up the burden of preparing for next season. In the first place they must choose a coach and this may. be a very hard task for Andy Smith, conceded by all 4o be the logical man for the place, Is more than likely to decline re-election. After his per- formance of the past season in turning out a winning team at. Pennsylvania after things looked so black at the start ef the year. Smith is in great demand for next year. He has received several offers from other colleges; one of them being for double the money he has been re- ceiving at Pennsylvania. Smith says his heart is with s’ennsylvania and if the Football Committee offers him any- where near the money that he can get elsewhere he will stick; but he does not see his way clear to make such a big financial sacrifice as would be entailed in his acceptance of the position for an- other-year at the same salary that has been attached to the post for several

Johnny ‘‘King’’ Finnegan failed to se- lect an all-star eleven formidable enough to defeat the champ'ton St. Leos’ in the final game of. the holida; series at Athletic Park, Monday. In- stead the tables were turned and the St. Leos won from the pick of the league by a 2 to 0 score. The play was al! in favor of the champions, While only two goals were scored, ‘they kept the ball continually in the All-Star terri- tory. The picked forwards displayed no team work. as was to be expected, and Jack Tully wore an overcoat al! afternoon between the goal posts. As the weather was biting cold, the play- ers kept on the jump all the time, giv- ing a fast exhibition of the kicking game.’ About six hundred fans braved the cold. Finnegan showed Young Leahey, for- merly of the Immeculate -Conceptions, in his forward line. He made a nice showing and hereafter will line up with the Knights of Columbus club. Joe }Mason and Harry Monahan shot goals for the St. Leos. ? The St. Terésas, who claim the ama- quite a surprise by defeating the Benld (Ill.); team at St. Louis University Park. Monday, 5 goals to 0. The Benld team, on @ heavy field, defeated the Blue Bellis of the Athletic Park League, Sun- day, 1—0. . The well-timed passing of the St. Te- resas appeared to dazzle the Scotchmen from the Hast Side. On the other hand the advances of the Benld men were stopped by the St. Teresa fullbacks. §8, King got two goals, while Marre, Mc- Mahon and Walsh scored one each. ~ 4 Zbyszko Tosses John Lemm, BUFFALO, N.

Jules Schmitt and Emil Masson won the ragtime tenpin tournament, which closed on the De Soto Pine alleys Mon- day night. They totaled 2182 pins Sat- urday night. Schmitt also won the in- dividual event, with a 109 total, while his partner, Masson, with 1082, gets sec- ond money in the singles division.. Dan McCarthy, with 1079, is third. Al Jellison and E. B. Wilder, up to Saturday night, held the high average for pairs in five games, with a 2072 total, but after it was passed, when Masson and Schmitt rolled 2182, it was generally acceded that that mark would remain high. In the single game event Harry Dean landed the first prize, his best being a 230 mark. Dean rolled Saturday night. Dean's only: miss of a. strike was in the second frame, when he spared. Jake Pflueger pronounced the tourna- ment a success, ‘and stated that it served its purpose in keeping the local men in shape for the coming A. B. C. event, one of the biggest in history. Another tournament may be held prior to. the opening of the big tournament. The St. Louls Tenpin Tournament Co. is making rapid progress with details of the big tournament, and within the next week it is expected chat the $10,000 nec- essary’ will be ready for the Coliseum Co., which demands that figure for the use of the building for the 16 days of the .tournament. Considerable effort is being made to dispose of all of the admission tickets by a special committee of bowlers and Mr. Koeln’s personal representative, Mr. Foland. It is hoped that enoug will be sold to keep the entire first ba cony filled all the time. Another attractive feature of the tour- nament will be the palm garden, an in- novation introduced in bowling tourna- ments. The garden will be arranged at the ones of he alleys.

ee eee PRIDE WG ENTER O tn. IM ve NG wwLY IN WALL STREET Prices Rise One to Two Points on Improved Buying. NEW YORK, Jan, 3. Stocks closed active and strong. Good buying of Union Pacific an and the lead- ing rails carried prices up 1 to 2 points. The market showed increased activity on the rally and final quotations re- corded good gains. Stocks were steady at the noon hour with the general list a sharp fraction above Saturday’s final figures. Union Pacific and Reading were strong fea- tures. ‘Steel common s**', showed pres- sure of liquidation. T “ond market was steady. The stock market showed moderate strength at the opening of speculation Tuesday, gains being general throughout ths list. Trading was professional, how- ever. The London market was irregular and generally lower. The general statistical review of the old year shows in many respects ghe most remarkable development in the country’s wealth and progress. The gold production for the year broke all former records by $10,000,000 or $20,000,000. The American harvest was the coun- try’s largest, its aggregate value ap- proximating $9,000,000,000. Bank clear- ings in the West and Southwest broke all recortis, while in the East the re- turns were almost entirely unfavorably influenzed by the lack of speculation in New York. Dividend disbursements be- ing distributed today approximate $220,- 0,000, easily passing all records. Rail- road gross earnings for the year foot up $2,835,000,000, or over $220,000,000 more than 1909, and $214,000,000 over the pre- vious high record of 1907. Despite the unusual increase in railroad expenses, the year’s net returns will show over $3,000,000 over 1909... These are fundamen- tal conditions on which the country’s prosperity is based. Offsetting these are surface conditions which influence sentiment pessimistical- ty and make for uncertainty in busi- ness. These are the unknown outcome of the Government's dissolution suits against the Standard Oil and American Tobacco companies; the question as to whether the railroads are to be per- mitted to advance freight rates, and a possibility of a downward adjustment of tariff schedules. Regarding the Government suits it may be confidently asserted that their outcome has been made a Wall street bugaboo. Even an adverse decision may quickly prove a bull card.. Since it will open the way for immediate action by the corporations involved to read- j dust their business on lines to more closely conform to governmenta! ideas. Corporations will be in a position to see what is required of them. It is the un- certainty of not knowing where they stand that has been a drag on the rrarket and business generally. On the question of freight rate in- crease official opinion differs greatly. But from the-manner in which wages are being advanced, in the face ef rail- |foad statements showing startling net decreases from excessively high con- struction, despite gross increases, it ap- pears that inside sources are confident of an increase. If so, the really strong point in favor of advancing markets is carried.‘ President Ripley of the Atchison, in a year-end interview, says that the railroads are now $250,000,000 to $300,000,000 behind in necessary expendi- tures. This money and more in con- struction will be spent if the railroads are permitted to advance freight rates. From this it can be seen what an im- portant factor is the rate question. As tegards the tariff, the general opinion prevails that nothing of im- portance will develap at this session. In the future, however, the tariff ques- tion will become one of grave impor- tance to the market. — MUSICAL FOR ‘SALE.
