Several passengers appealed to the conductor, who refused to interfere. Miss Chadima was compelled to listen to the abuse, all the way to South St. Paul. She sued for $600. : SENATORS LEARN LORD'S PRAYER Kansas Chaplain Found Only 8 Knew Familiar Petition. TOPEKA, Kan., Feb. 4.—In opening a session of the State Senate a few days ago, the Rev. A. F.

He said the case seemed one of carbolic acid poisoning, and that there were no marks of violence on the body.

She may have been in Philadelphia |. since she disappeared from her home, but she has not been located there, is not stay- ing with friends, was not seen at a hotel there, nor was she kidnaped in any automobile, taken to Philadelphia and held for ransom, so far as her rela- tives and her father’s Jawyers have been able to ascertain. : Reports that the missing heiress had been found by her brether, John, in Philadelphia, were thus summarized and denied today by John S. Keith; attorney for Francis R. Arnold, her millionaire father. Keith met John S. Arnold on his re- turn here. Nothing, the lawyer said, had been added by the Philadelphia trip to the family’s meager knowledge of Dorothy’s movements since she left home, Dec. 12. “The Philadelphia story has been ex- ploded,”’ Mr, Keith said. “It was wild and unpromising at best, but we are running every clew to earth.

Bride Hears of Plan. In some way Miss Catlin and Allen heard of the plan. They went to the Country Club, and, leaving Miss Cat- lin in the auto, Allen entered, and after explaining the circumstances to the guests, accompanied Miss Catlin home in the auto. The chauffeur was put on his guard and cruised slowly up and down in front of the Catlin home until he was sure no constables were near, then he stopped and the bride-to-be brbke all existing records in getting out of the auto and into the house. . That was at 8:45, and a few minutes later the constables arrived and took station in front of the house to await her return. While Miss Catlin slept the officers walked up and down in front of the house to keep warm. Their movements were noted by the Catlin chauffeur from a front window. Daniel Catlin Served. At 10:30 an auto rolled up to the door and the constables were alert waiting for Miss Catlin to get out. Instead, | however, her father, Daniel Catlin, alighted. They had a summons for him, which was served, and when he went into the house the weary wait for Miss Catlin was resumed. When midnight eame thé watchers be- gan to grow uneasy, but they stuck to their post, running. up and down the walk to keep warm, and the chauffeur kept watch behind a curtain in the house. At 1:30 it began. to dawn on the constables that they had _ been fooled, and they started away, re- turning a few minutes later, but final- ly giving up the attempt at 2. o’clack Sorry for the Constables. 4 Miss Catlin said that she was very sorry the constables had such a long cold wait for her. “I didn’t know anything about it,”’ she said, ‘‘until this morning, for I retired a few minutes after coming home from the Country Club. “If I had known they were out there in the cold I would have sent some re- freshments out to them or shown my- self at the wiridow so they could have gone home instead of staying around the heuse until 2 o’cluck.’”’ Red Raven cures constipation.

John H. Blessing, a stock and bond broker, testified Saturday before Spe- cial Examiner Gehman in the Federal Building, that he organized, in 190, a syndicate of men whose fortunes to- italled $40,000,000, to take over about 5000 acres of Colorado coal land from the Yampa Anthracite Coal Co. at. $200 an acre. The syndicate had an option on the land for six months, Blessing testified, but it did not buy the lands under the option, because it was found that the individual owners had not transferred the land to the Yampa company. He said the option was made by him with F. W. Keitel, a director in the Yampa company. The depositions were taken the suit in which the United States Gov- ernment. is seéking to reclaim 4680 acres of land held under patent by various persons. The Government officials charge that the present holders were used as “dummies” by the Yampa com- pany. It is also charged by Ethelbert Ward, Assistant District Attorney in Denver, who represents the Depart- ment of Justice, that L. M. Rumsey and Keitel got relatives and friends to take up the lands, to be later trans- ferred to the company. 3 The. patents were granted to the lands at a cost of $10 an acre, witnesses stated. Blessing testified that the option held by him recited that/it included lands on which options were then held by L. M. Rumsey and J. L. Green. The option also recited, he said, that the land was to be delivered to the syn- dicate free of all liens and incum- brances, except a deed of trust to B. L. Dorsey for $25,000, running from April 25, 1905, bearing 5 per cent interest. BILL FOR ABOLITION OF CITY OFFICES TO COME UP MONDAY Reorganization Is Expected to Cut Down Expenses $100,- ooo Yearly.

Damages done to abutting property in bridging the Missouri Pacific tracks at the Chouteau avenue grade crossing will be assessed against the railroad company if the Council adopts a bill which has been passed by the House of Delegates. A bill under which this part of the expense would have been borne by the city was killed in the Councll last Mon- day, and it is believed that the new measure will be passed. The damages are estimated at $40,000 to $300,000. Twenty-two delegates cast their votes to put on the railroad the entire cost of eliminating this crossing. Three— Hamilton, Jacobs and Russell—opposed the plan. Three other delegates were absent. Although he subsequently supported the bill, Speaker Rombauer condemned tne advocates of the policy of com- pelling the railroads to pay-all the dam- ages to abutting property. These legis- lators, he declared, were unwilling that the city should contribute $500,000 of a total of $7,500,000 to abolish cross- ings, but were ready to give the rail- roads the free use of the municipal bridge. Mayor Favored Other Plan. Mayor Kreismann and President Re- ber of the Board of Public Improve- ments favored the plan of dividing the cost between the railroads and the city. both sought to bring Councilmen to that view of the question. 7 The viaduct which the bill directs the Missouri Pacific Railroad to build will extend from a point 37 feet west of Tiffany avenue to Vandeventer avenue (Old Manchester road). It will cost about $200,000. Speaker Rombauer and other city of- ficials say they expect the Missouri Pacific to resist in the courts the en- forcement of the provision requiring the company to bear the consequential dam- ages. Vice-President Clarke has told members of the Assembly that the Mis- souri Pacific would build the bridge if the city would pay the damages to abutting property.

EA FOR. SPECIAL _ SESSION PASSED IN THE INDIANA HOUSE

a . Vain Effort by Republicans to Kill | Appeal to Taft to Make Tariff Cut Possible.

Shall tariff reform be postponed until 1912 ? Shall reduction of the cost of living be postponed until 1912 ?

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Feb. 4—By an almost unanimous vote the Indiana House of Representatives adopted the joint concurrent resolution, introduced by Representative Michael Thornton of New Albany, calling on President Taft and both Houses of Congress to recognize the demands of the people, expressed at the recent elec- tion, for immediate rduction of the high cost of living. The res- olution has been sent to the Senate, where a similar one was intro- duced by Senator Robert Proctor of Elkhart. Senator Proctor has been assured of an early and favorable report, An effort was made in the House yesterday to kill the resolution in committee, the Republican members opposing and obtainimg an unfavorable report. But Representative Thornton called the resolution before the House and asked an immediate vote. ™ All the Democrats and fully half the Republicans etal for the resolu- tion. Many Republicans said that the resolution is in line with their cam- paign in Indiana last year, and that they could not consistently ‘oppose it. Gov. John A. Dix of New York, D. Cady Herrick, Herbert P. Bissel and Justice Gerard, candidates for the Wnited States Senate, the 25 Demo- eratic members of the New York dele- “gation in Congress; mayors of a score ‘of New York cities, and other citizens of the Empire State equally distin- guished, head the list of representa- tive men alréady on record in favor of a special session of Congress to reform the worst features of the tar- iff at once. ‘Today the Post-Dispatch presents ’ more of New York public opinion, as follows. « . To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. | I favor an extra session. The will of the people as expressed at the last election was in favor of a lower tar- iff. The high cost of living must be reduced. LOUIS P. FUHRMANN, Mayor of Buffalo. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I favor an extra session of Con- om: ' gress ‘to pass a tarifff measure af- fording relief from present excessive rates on all necessaries of life. I _tuly agree with Gov, Dix and other leading Democrats that the result of the last election was in the nature of a command to revise the tariff at the earliest date possible and, if neces- sary, to call an extra session of Con- gress. I approve of Assemblyman Cuviellier’s resolution petitioning President Taft to call an extra session of Congress to revise the tariff. DANIEL SHEEHAN, Mayor of Elmira. To the Editor ef the Post-Dispatch. I am heartily in favor of an extra session for the purpose of taking the tax from the necessaries of life. JOHN J. IRVING, Mayor of Binghamton. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The duty of the Government is to give relief wherever it can be done. The demand for tariff reduction on life’s necessities as soon as itc be accomplished has been insistent, as all impartial judges read th. sentiment of the people. Naturally an extra session of Congress, for the consider- ation of this question would seem to be desirable. ' JAMES T. LENNON,

’ Mrs. Sarah Fox of 4130A Easton avenue, a niece of Abraham Lincoln, and whom Judge Grimm has permitted to sue aS a poor person, told a Post- Dispatch reporter Saturday of her early life in the Lincoln cabin in Sangamon County, Ill.. She said that Lincoln often rocked her cradle, and that his pet name for her was “Bright Eyes.”’ “My grandmother on my mother’s side was Elizabeth Lincoln,” she said. “When I. was born, Uncle Abe was grown and was away most of the time working and later studying law. But he came often to see us, and I remember him very well. He was a jolly fellow, full of fun and jokes. “I. remember one of his favorite Sayings.

I had been married only a few months and was living on a farm near the old Lincoln home. He asked me to go with him to the graveyard at Shiloh, where his father was buried. | I went with him in a buggy, and was with him when he stood for the last time at the grave of his father. “T remember that when we came back home, my mother put her hand on his shoulder and said, ‘Abe, I knew it was in you,’ but he had little to say. We expected that he would be proud and, as we say in these days: ‘All swelled up’ over his great honor. But instead, he seemed to be very sober minded and- weighed down with the cares of office. I never saw him after that visit.” Mrs. Fox fell through the floor of a shed at her home, and is suing the owner of the place, Ephraim Silver- son, for $10,000, because of her in- juries. She told Judge Grimm Fri- day that she was without money, and that her son, with whom she lives, was too poor to help her. The Court then granted her permission to sue aS a poor~-person, or without depositing a guarantee of costs. MRS JINKS °° STILL IMPROVING

Chairman Kortjohn of the Election Board was subjected to a three hours’ examination Friday. Election Commis- sioner Blodgett was also subpenaed as a witness for Saturday. All the hearings thus far have been secret. The committee has undertaken an in- vestigation of the registration in the river wards. It is also making a care- ful inquiry into the conduct of the po- lice In connection with the election. The Election Board obtained from the Police Board the services of Sergt. John McMullen and ten patrolmen“and de- tectives to canvass the registration in several river wards before the Novem- ber election. As the result of the can- vass, indictments were issued by the Circuit Attorney’s office against a large number of persons alleged to be fraud- ulently registered. The Election Commissioners told the committee this canvass was made as the result of complaints made by Wil- liam H. Wallace of the Prohibition or- ganization and prominent Democrats to Gov. Hadley, to the effeot that the reg- istration books were padded.

DRUGGIST’S JOKE SAVES LIFE AND CURES EFFECT OF DRINKING Young Man Leaves Note That He Is No More but Potion He Drinks Is Harmless. Some druggist played a joke on Ed- ward Eaton and as a result he is still alive. He is 28 years old and stops at a hotel at 4 North Thirteenth street. Friday night Eaton handed a note to Rebert Klein at the clerk’s desk. ‘If I do not get up at ll o'clock when you call me, deliver this note,” he said. Then he drew a bottle from his pocket and drank the contents. An ambulance was called and Eaton was taken to the dispensary. “Only a harmless bromidia,’’ said the physician there. ‘‘He has been drinking and the stuff he took ought to straight- en him out.”’ Eaton was then taken to Central Dis- trict Station, for a good night’s sleep. He was released Saturday morning. The note he had given to Klein was addressed to “Mrs. Cora Haus, super- visor of the Bell Telephone Co., night.’’ ‘This is to notify you that I am no more,” it read. “Try to keep the truth from mother and father.” The note was not delivered.

~~ ai CAPT. T.H. WELLS, OWNER OF TINIEST CIGAR SHOP, DEAD Man Who Sold to Grain Brokers From Store 8 Feet Square Had Crossed Atlantic 60 Times. Capt. Thomas H. Wells, cigar dealer, who died Thursday of pneumonia, was buried Saturday at 8:30 a. m. in Calvary Cemetery. The funeral was from the home, 4532A Cote Brilliante, to the Vis- fitation Church. Capt.

eS Why | Lost My Job Reasons Why Thousands Like Me Cannot Satisfy Their Employers. “I believe my fate is not unlike that of thousands of other workers who daily lose their places for rea- sons they do not know, and probably would not believe. When their last pay envelope comes along, it is usually, ‘Your services no longer re- quired.’ If the truth were known, the reason for their unceremonious removal would probably be that their usefulness was destroyed because of some mental worry, bodily ailment or general indisposition. These things, as we all know, are the most fruitful causes of failure in all walks of life. The battle of Waterloo was lost because of a headache. gIn this quick age our minds must be clear, rapid, active and free from outside influence or worry, or else we go down to failure with the throng of ‘floaters’ who go from one place of employment to another, giving no satisfaction to others or to them- selves, constantly growing older and less useful, with no ambition, no will power, and no hope. “Every man requires from every other man the best that is in him. But no man can-use or get the best that igs in himself until he is first free from all fretful indispositions and -worries, “That was my trouble. I was full of troubles. That’s why I lost my job. My stomach in the first place was always out‘of order, and I was worrying about it and my mind grew cloudy, and slow. I made mis-

‘takes, and grew grouchy. That was the end. “There are thousands like me, go- ing about with “quick lunch” faces, @yspeptic manners, and repulsive atmospheres. No employer wants such men’s services, “Take my advice. A_ healthy stomach is half the battle, for it keeps your mind clear, and your face rosy. I ‘have a healthy stom- ach now and hold a good position, and my employer -is satisfied and so am I. “I started to take Stuart’s Dys- pepsia Tablets, which I was told were good for the worst cases of indi- gestion and dyspepsia. The first two tablets made a wonderful difference in my condition.” One ingredient of Stuart’s Dyspep- sia Tablets digests 3000 grains of food. The stomach doesn’t have to work at all. The Tablets do all the work, no matter how heavy your meni; == x Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets cure brash, eructations, burning sensa- tions, bloat, irritations, loss, of ap- petite, nausea, heartburn, lack of energy, loss of memory and dyspep- sia and indigestion in their very worst forms. No other little tablets in the world can do so much. You should carry them around with yeu wherever you go and take them regularly after meals. Then you will realize what it ig to be freed from stomach tor- ment, and have a clear mind, a quick memory, a happy disposition, comfort and rest.

SYNO PSIS) The Jilt, a Kentucky girl, after a series of unlucky love affairs, goes to a con- | t hospital to care for her sick aunt. There she meets Dr. Ray, on whom she makes mn instant impression. But, having resolved to be a priest, he puts away all thought marriage. She becomes interested in a patient, William Lioyd, against whom Dr. {Ray warns her. (Copyright, 1910, by Doubleday, Page & Co.) CHAPTER V. HIS was certainly more like the jealousy of the ordinary man than the charity of the prospective priest, and I determined to play upon it if I could. ‘Mr. Lloyd pleases me,’’ I said. **And he has pleased many women before you! **T can believe that,’’ I said maliciously. ‘‘He would not be altogether wrapped up in his own soul, nor does he belong so exclusively to God that he cannot make himself agreeable.’’ Dr. Ray threw out his hands as if to ward off a blow, and I knew that at least I had the power to hurt him. He turned as if to leave and then he : i landy Andy } e ters Fr om “You may think I am a coward and a prig—you may think what you; — | : 2 : | we : You know nothing ; ye ae cael a N O ern i | a ' THE RECEPTION 1S THIS Al ™ SO & WON'T NEED ‘E Wf ses , If: ‘ choose—but it is my duty to warn you against that man.

The extent to which he put himself in a false position would be some measure of his love for me. He hated to do it, but he conceived it to be his duty, and he went on: _ 4 sippose you know the position he occupied in the capital of’’—— and he named the now deposed dictator of a certain Latin-American republic, whom I may call Gonzales.’’ ‘*No,’’ I said. ‘‘Tell me.’’ ‘*There is no language by which I can soften the infamy of it in order to tell it to a lady,’’ said Dr. Ray. ‘‘More innuendoes!’’ I sneered. ‘‘Ask him why the people rose and drove him and Gonzales’ wife from the country,’’ said Dr. Ray. ‘‘I could see that it hurt him to say it. ‘‘Perhaps I shall,’’ I said. ‘‘ Why didn’t the dictator himself do it?’’ ‘(He was an old man, and he trusted him,’’ said Dr. Ray, ‘‘and’’ 44 And maybe a little afraid of him, too?’’ I suggested. ‘‘I can imagine - that Mr. Lloyd would not be easy to approach on a matter of that kind. And I can also imagine his opinion of men who hawk about tales behind his back they they are too cowardly—or too conscientious, perhaps?—to bring more directly to, his attention.’’ And with that I left him mute, a picture of misery. Winter passed, and with the coming of mild spring weather Mr. Lioy d grew strong fast and was presently able to take me out driving in the Warm, sunny afternoons. Aunt Allison, who was growing stronger, too, and needed less and less of my time, was pleased enough to have me go. She thought that I had been very unselfish to remain in the hospital with her for a year and was touchingly grateful for the sacrifice. Just then I think I could have done no wrong in her eyes, and she would not have refused me a pleasure for the world. So I took my happy drives day after day, with no one to disapprove but Dr. Ray. I often caught glimpses of his face, stern and sad, at some window as I rode off, and I felt a joy in his discomfiture. One evening, as we were driving home through the Aprit dusk, Mr. Lloyd turned to me and said suddenly: ‘‘ You know—don’t you, Sylvia?’’ . There had never been a word of sentiment between us, close and con- stant as ouy companionship had become, but I did knew instantly... There Was no mistaking his tone. But I didn’t intend to forego his telling me for all that.

And I want you to laugh with me, Nell, at the pros- pect! When Joaw and I got there Mrs Horton was stretched on a white and gold Recamier couch, attired in a mauve chiffon teagown, with a huge bunch of Russian violets at her waist her blonde hair bound tightly with a wide violet bandeau—and she was smoking a cigarette that was violet scented. She's 66 Exe a beauty, Nell—a_ glacier heauty! And the cold of her eyes goes surprisingly well with her firmly chiseled lips and the pale gold of her hair. She's 24 and has been married two years to Willis Horton, Yale 1900, and the son of three generations of millionaires. Naturally Joan asked for. her brother-in-law as soon as she had kissed her sister. “Well, really,” Mrs. Horton replied “Tl imagine Wifis is O. K. Fact is, I haven’t caught sight of him for three days—our engagements never seem to collide, someway or other.”’ At first I thought I hadn’t heard correctly; then I saw Joan gasp 4&4 little—and I knew I had. ‘“Rut—don’t you—don't you dine to- zether?” Joan. questioned, in amaze- ment.

If we remember that in the fourth century people wrote with sharp points on wax instead of with pens on paper, the picture suggested by Ausonius and his stenographer is sur- prisingly like that of the business man in his office dictating a letter.

In old times each family owned its home, and the woman could make of her heusehold a home if she chose. The growth of modern industry fas taken the work out of the home, and with.the work it has taken the worker. The poor cannot afford to have homes; they have only a tenement, crowded and overcrowded: but it is not only the poor who have jost all sense of home—even the well-to-do are out for amusement. They do not want the care and trouble of servants and housekeep- ing.

HERE are thousands of homes— millions of homes in America,’’ claimed the golden Mrs. Atherton, when I read her this doleful diatribe. ‘You can’t drive through the streets of any of our cities without seeing them--rows upon rews of houses filled with women who are making homes for their hus- bands and children. “The expensiveness of great cities has developed apartment life, and the apart- ment husband and wife. A great many marriages are just chumships. A man marries because he wants a chum, and he prefers a female chum. If he and his wife want to have a little apartment and go around to the theaters together, that is their own affair; but apartment life is hard on children. It makes them abnormal, introspective, often vicious— and, of course, there must be children or the world would stop.” Mrs. Atherton paused a moment. But multitudinous ideas were flashing in the blue fire of her eyes, and the effect was like that of sunlight upon a thous- and swords. “T can’t see anv particular reason why the world shouldn’t stop,’’ she added, “but serious minded persons are opposed to it: They say that it won't do. “You and I,’’ Mrs. Atherton added, “belleve that women should do things. But we're abnormal. We have a reitten spot in the brain that makes us wish to create ideas, to write books. Other women with the same spot want to be poets or painters. “1° normel womaar the one whose happpiness is in having eight nine children.

I call her golden because her hair and the brain under it were stamped in the treasury of the gods. ‘‘Children up to the time they are seven or eight years of age are care and occupation enough for any woman. They are very delicate little machines. But when chil- dren get to be of an age when they are away at school most of the day and can Play outdeors afterward, there is an opportunity for every woman to find whether the writing of books or opening of a milli- nery shop. “The most permanent happiness is in work. And the sooner a woman gets rid of the old-fashioned idea, handed down by the dramatists and poets, that her lifework is in the love of a man, the happier she will be. Love.is an inctl- dent.

The interviewe? is essentially a bird of passage; when confronted with the largesse wo ideas Mrs. Atherton supplies, she can not possibly carry them all away, eve: with the most capacious beak, or mem ory, if you dislike the bird simile. I don’t know how the subject changed but from the snobbishness of men we fell to discussing society. ani oT HIS idea possessed by the ignor- ant rich that they constitute an upper .class, is absurd,’’ Mrs. Atherton said.. “The word middle class “annot properly be used in America except as applied to a point of view. “An aristocracy in the United States can be composed of those only who make it for eumbabons through the pos- session of brains, breeding anda broad point of view. are frankly middle class or bourgeois. “In England society is much more democratic than it is here.

We treat our servants as friends and expect to have them with us for a life- time.” But perhaps our plutocratiec so- clety has the exclusiveness of fear,”’ Mrs. Atherton added. “They may have banded together to conceal their ignor- ance and social insecurity from the rest of the world.” No Clevw.

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.—The identity of American League official scorers here- after will be known only to League officials, club owners and the scorers themselves, if the owners take kindly to the suggestion when made by Presi- dent B. B. Johnson at the schedule meeting of the League here, on Feb. 14. The matter will be put up to the mag- nates by Mr. Johnson, who said yes- terday that he favored the move. The same suggestion has been made by Secretary Heydler of the National League. Sentiment. in favor of removing the .Official scoring from the conflicting in- terests and influences which are un- avoidable when the scorers are known publicly has been growing for some time, it is said, and was crystallized by events in connection with the bat- ting contest between Lajoie and Cobb last fall. If the rule of secrecy had been in force last year, it is argued, the suspicions surrounding the contest would have been avoided, for the rea- son that only the secretary of the League would have known how close the race was between the leading bats- men until the contest was over. : Players Use Influence. By the existing system official scorers in both' major leagues are known to the players and anyone else who cares to ask. . Naturally they are subjected to pressure, often from players them- selves and more often from friends of players. Batting and fielding averages depend much upon judgment, which is bound to be affected more cr less by outside influences or opinions. The plan of withdrawing the official scorers from these influences is not a new one. It was tried successfully by the Chicago National League Club when A. G. Spald- ing was its president. For 10 years, ending in 1891, the official scorer on the West Side was known to the of- ficiale of the National League only as ‘hm. G. Green.’’ That the scoring was done by Mrs. Eliza Green Williams, mother of C. G. Williams, now treasurer of the. Cubs, was known only to her- self and to President Spalding until years afterward. Speaking of the inci- dent, Treasurer Williams said: Anson Never Knuew. ‘‘Manager was official scorer for the club, nor did any of the players, newspapers or the public. My mother usually sat be- tween Mrs. Anson and Mrs. Dalrymple at the games and they did not know she was official scorer. I used to mail the scores to League headquarters for her and I did not know it. In signing the scores she used‘ ‘her maiden name, and even Nick Young, who received them, did not know who ‘E. G. Green’ Was.’’ “BILL” TAFT GETS ANNUAL COURTESY GARD FROM CUBS CHICAGO, Feb. 4.—Distribution .of an- pual courtesy cards to Chicago National League games among distinguished “fans’’ was begun yesterday. “William H.

“Have a Seat, Signify By ROBERT EDGREN. A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 4. OM SHARKEY pulled off a few funny ones in his day. Tom wasn't such an easy mark as he looked. He was one of the forerunners of the modern school—boxers who make fighting a business and save their money. Tom came along when John L. Sullivan was still regarded as the ideal fighter, and when everyone thought a fighter ought to stand on the street corners and throw his money into the gutter. To tell the truth, that is why so many stories about Tom came into circulation. Tom wasn't so “tight” after all, and I could ‘tell of many occasions when he has helped a poor “bum” along with a dollar or two, and when he has even bought railroad tickets across the continent for some busted sailor who hailed from Vallejo, where Tom first fought in this country. But, as I said, he wasn’t exactly an easy mark. When Tom was at the height of his fame in the ring he usually trained at Coney Island and spent his time along the beach. One afternoon Tom seated himself at a table on the porch of a famous hotel down that way and ordered a dinner. While he was busy with the fork along came two well-dressed strangers, and spy- ing Tom: immediately walked up to his table and opened up @ conversation. They stayed there and talked and talked, and Tom, becoming embarrassed. finally asked them if they wouldn't sit down, Handing the Lemon. They would, and no sooner were they geated than they ordered an elaborate dinner, with plenty of wine. Tom ate along leisurely .and kept up his end of the conversation. The strangers managed to finish at the same time, and ordering a couple of Havanas teaned back in the ‘Join Me, the Lexicon of Sharkey

WAM on one check, Mr, Sharkey?” asked | Doesn't in “Naw,” replied Tom; “Give me mine separate.”’ “What?” ejaculated the two strangers. “I gaid ‘Give me mine separate’”’ said Tom with a scowl. “But you asked us to sit down—we're busted—-we can’t pay for all this,” shrieked the butters-in. “That's none of my business,”’ said Tom coldly. “I asked you if you would sit down;: I didn’t ask you if you'd feed.” And paying for his own dinner he got up, bowed pleasantly and walked away from there. When Fits Punched the Lion. OB FITZSIMMONS has always want- ed to be an animal trainer. Down at Coney Island his friend, Bos- tock, had to watch him all the time to keep him from slipping into the lion cages. Bob has many an experience with lions. There was one that came a few days after he won the middle-weight champion- ship from Jack Dempsey. Bob was. so tickled over his new title that he couldn't keep still, but coming North again jumped off the train at every station and jogged up and down the platform. At one sta- tion a travelling circus was unloading its animal show. Bob spied a big cage with a lion, in it, “Ah,” he said, “here’s where I. show you fellows a trick. You've heard of the power of the human eye. Just watch me,” Bob stepped close to the lion cage and directed a blue stare at the lion. The lion stirred uneasily and yawned. “He's afraid of me,”’ chuckled Bob, and suddenly shooting out his left fist he punched the lion on the nose. Just as suddenly the lion whipped one huge paw through the bars and gave Bob a raking smash on the forearm. There was a show- er of freckles. Bob continued his Journey with the famous left in bandages. His. A.B. TOURNEY DIERS NOT SUFFER LOSS Local Men Who Backed 1911 Event Will Just About Break Even Officials Say.

Unless the calculations of the officials of the St. Louis Tenpin Association are all aglee, the locai organization which promoted the present American Bowing Congress tournament will get out of the event without an actual financial loss. As the affair-now stands, an apparent loss of $2000 or more is in sight, the attendance faliing below what was need- ed to bring the promoters out even. But it is estimated the deficit will be.muade up by the advertisements in records, books and from other sources, so that the local men will have to be stung for but a slight touch. When the local promoters took hold of the event it was in the face ofa finan- cial loss on their previous similar ven- ture, several years ago. Only the rep- resentatives of certain interests hore induced the local men to take it up. When the promised support failed, the local bowlers’ association took the mat- ter on their own shoulders. They had been given to understand, it is said, that they would receive enough to help to reduce their Coliseum rent from $10,000 to $6000. Had this beer’ done, the local men would have come through with a handsome profit. No Chance to Lose, Again. Under the conditions gxOverning the holding of future A. B. C. events it is not possible for the organization promot- ing the tournament in the interest of any city to lose money. The congress in session here voted to turn over 33 1-3 per cent of the entrance fees to the use jof the local organizations for expenses, This will practically guarantee any city association from loss in handling the event, while reducing the prize list only slightly.

AMERICAN DERBY WINNER IS ON MARKET FOR $250 LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4.—In connee- tion with the passage by the Legis- lature of the Walker anti-betting bill, comes the announcement that the

-famous string of race horses owned byrthe late, “Lucky” Baldwin is being rapidly disposed of from the Santa Anita ranch. When “Lucky” Baldwin died he owned about 300 pedigreed horses. Administrator Unruh has been selling them off indiscriminate- ly and probably only about 100 are left. The most noted horses now on the ranch are Rey el Santa Anita, Cruza- does, Lisaro and Amigo. What they are valued at in the inventory would make some of the old sports sick— $250 each being asked for the two former.

Otherwise certain pillars of the circuit couldn’t foster the idea of paying President B. RB. Johnson a ninth share in the season's receipts instead of the fabulous gsal- ary which was voted him at the 1910 meeting, when he was tendered a healthy increase to go hand in hand with a 20-year term at the helm. The big idea was unfurled by Owner Comiskey of the Chicago White Sox. La. wr Y ale Students Vote Former Capt. Daly: M ost Admired Man NEW HAVEN, Conn., Feb. 4. EVERAL Yale seniors are walking S the college campus today with new honors attached as the result of the annual class balloting. The returns show that former Capt. Frederick J. Daly of the football team is the most admired man and John Reed Kilpatrick, the football and track star, the man who has done the most for Yale and the best athlete. ““Pop”’ Corey landed second place in this com- petition. CC. S. de Long of Chicago| was voted the class beauty. The wit- tiest man, according to the vote, is Erastus Henry Hewitt of Willistown, Mass. William de F. Manice of New York was pronounced the handsomest and best-dressed senior. The vote for the biggest “fusser’’ was won by Charlies L. Reed of Cincinnati, with Horace R. Boynton of Los An- geles a close second. The most versa- tile man and the most likely to suc- ceed was voted Francis Fitzrandolph of Baltimore, with Kilpatrick next. Cor- nellue E.

A Ban Johnson from R. L. Hedges, the last possibility of the ‘‘social’’ regeneration of the Browns through the medium of a Racquet Club syndicate is gone. When Mr. Hedges resumed the reins, some weeks ago, he an- nounced that the deal was ‘‘temporar- ily’’ off. Manny Hodgman, one member of the syndicate who did not suffer from frigidity of the propellers, was given an extension of time to try and interest other ‘‘socialists’’ in his scheme, to make up for the seceding members of the original syndicate. Although the time allowed Mr. Hodgman for this purpose has not-.yet expired, Mr. John- son’s tnformation has it that all the “pep’’ is out of the movement and that the promoters of blue-ribbon baseball have officially surrendered. The country owes the St. Louis syn- dicate sométhing. Any set of men who are willing to pay $30,000 to furnish the world with a laugh deserves some rec- ognition. * + * Making It Up to Howell. RESIDENT BAN JOHNSON is now P getting busy applying cooling lo- tions to the lacerations suffered by Harry Howell, following the dis- closures of last October. in con- nection with the Lajoie incident, here. Robert L. Hedges laid a mailed hand on Harry, then. To take the sting out. Johnson is now promoting a job for Harry. It’s either a minor league man- agership or an Association umpire’s berth for Howell. “Following which,’ adds Ban B., “there may be a position in the Amer- ican League for Howell, if he makes good.”’ It is only just that something should be done for Howell. - The notoriety, rather than anything Howell actually did, deprived him of a chance of two good berths. He was “canned” by Mr. Hedges as scout; and he was repudi- ated by President_ Johnson as a@ pros- pective big league umpire. As is usual, Harty suffered for the man higher up. The eagle eye of Ban B. detected the mistake; now every little movement in favor of Howell in the future will have 4 meaning of its "W's only proper that so good a base- ball prospect should not be ruined to make a poor — singer. e Stand By His Guns, 1LE nearly all the other breed- Wes of the country are discard- ing their thoroughbreds slowly but surely, Barney Schrefber of An- glum, Mo., is one who is doing the op- posite.

His -Wood- lands farm today has probably the finest collection of thoroughbred mares in the United States.

NE can sympathize with Schrei- () ber, who loves horses and who has step by step evolved an ideal establishment at Woodlands—probably the most modern and most complete horse breeding plant in the country. To see this threatened, perhaps wiped out, injuring at once his pride and pocket-book, would stir the activities of a more phlegmatic person than Bon- aventure. * * * Last Chance in Missouri? T is very nearly the last stand for racing in Missouri. If it is not successful, it is unlikely to be brought up again. For-the horse is in danger of being forgotten. Many of the best sires have been shipped to Ar- gentine, France, Russia and Germany, countries that are fostering instead of restricting racing. The good strains will have been wiped out, in a few years, if this and other states see fit to continue the ban on the sport. Pres- ently it will be no longer possible to revive it, because of want of the ma- rial. It’s a horseless age, that’s coming. « * 6 Somebody should send a C Q D to Dave Nelson, at Jefferson City, if they want that racing bill passed.

FEW CHANGES IN Committee Decides to Give New Code Benefit of Another Year’s Tryout. NEW YORK. Feb. 4.—While the inter- collegiate Football Rules’ Committee will continue its meeting here today, it is not anticipated that any further changes will be added to those promulgated yes- terday. The most important alteration made Friday was the reduction of the first and third intermissions from three to two minutes, giving the teams just time to change from one goal to the — Following are the. more important changes announced: A new rule was adopted permitting teams, by agreement, to transfer the su- pervision of off-side play upon the line of scrimmage from umpire to head linesman. The linesman, however, is to report any infraction to the umpire. Another new rule provides that throwing a player to the ground after the referee has declared the ball dead may be con- sidered unnecessary roughness. An amendment was adopted allowing only three men to walk up and down the field on each side of the line. The pres- ent rule allows five. If the ball accident- ally strikes an official, provides another amendment, it shall not become dead; but play shall continue. A new rule adoptéd specifies that al! penalties under the rule regulating the forward pass shall be applied from the spot of the down and not on the spot from which the pass was made. The committee transferred the duty of keeping time from the field judge to the umpire, and in Rule 18, section 2, which provides that a player in catching for a pass ball not be tackled or shouldered until he has caught the ball, and “taken more than one step in any direction,” the words “taken more than one step in any direction” were stricken out. It was decided that if the ball, after hay- Ing been legally touched, shall then the ground, the pass shall be considered as incomplete. The object of this rule is to stop high pesses and make a clean play.

The Pittsburg ascribes are making al! kinds of remarks about Clarke Griffith's judgment.

Danny Long, Stealing signais has gotten to be a com- mon thing in the big leagues, according to Paul Bruske, the Detroit baseball author- ity. There is nothing against a manager getting the opponents’ signals if he can do so without using unfair tactics. Half of the game is in watching the opposing team’s plays, and then trying to guess’ what they are to do. Using spyglasses and tipping off the signals by means of devices from outside the grounds is hardly a square deal, however, as that looks too much like betting on a sure thing. Comiskey beat Connie Mack out in the race to secure Pitcher Jesse Baker last summer.

ST. LOUIS POST. DISPATCH.

THE POST- DISPATCH 1 DAILY “RECORD OF OF MARKETS AND FINAN .

TRADERS LIFT PRICES IN Tit STOCK MARKET closing Figures Are Strong and Active at the Highest Level. BANK RETURN IS GOOD

Shows Increased but Heavier Gain in Deposits. Statement Loans, By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—The Evening Post in its copyrighted daily financial review says: The movement at which was suspended actively resumed today, and numerous recoveries of a point or more were made, This is usually the character of a Saturday market when a professional operation of this week’s sort is under way. To allow the market to end the week in dullness, or with declines, would miss the influence which it is hoped to exert on outside sentiment over Sun- day. The Monday morning /{‘wire or- ders’’ are, of course, the objective point. If enough of them come to hand, even the day-to-day professional buyers are able to take temporary profits and to engage in the market for the rest of the week, according to what happens after- ward. Today’s stock market closed around the best, with Union Pacific, Steel common and Reading, the familiar trio, leading in the movement. Bank Statement. . The weekly bank statement showed a very large further increase in loans, that increase having, however, been largely diverted to the trust companies towards the end of the week. he statement by daily averages reported $34,600,000 in- crease in loans at the Associated Bank: the actual week-end showing made the increase only $9,700,0000; but the separate returns of the trust companies reported the exceptionally large loan expansion of $19,600,000. This shift to the trust com- panies has not occurred because of in- viting rates for loans; ca]l money has ranged as a rule below 2% per cent. The banks gain only $3,000, cash on the actual return. The result is a practica)- ly unchanged surplus reserve inthe week-end statement, and a $3,700,000 de- crease in the average. The actual sur- plus reserve is $14,000,000 above this week of a year ago, and $37,000,000 above 1909. It is the largest surplus with which Feb- ruary has opened in a decade past.

Evening up of contracts by traders ‘over the close of the week gave wheat a firm tone Saturday despite a rather bearish run of market news. Outside speculation was quiet. The pit element made the market. — There has been little if any improve- ment in the cash demand, despite the long decline in prices and until there is, traders say the market can show only minor: rallies. The flour’ trade shows little if any betterment and Min- neapolis reported some cut in prices friday, without bringing any unusually heavy orders. Crop reports from the Southwest have ceased to be a factor in the market, the early dry seed bed having given the Plant a tough growth at the Start, which authorities say has made it capa- ble of standing moderatety cold weather without snow covering, as has been the condition in the growing fields most of the winter. The weather map showed temperatures over the belt mild. A storm in the West is moving’ eastward. low temperatures prevail in the Da- kotas and Minnesota. Liverpool wheat steady, the weakness ‘in American markets being offset by firmness of cargoes offereq and lighter arrivals. Predictions of smaller Russian ship- ments with resultant lighter world’s shipments and an improved Continen- tal demand from France made a good inquiry for red wheat. Argentine of- fered wheat freely and the export demand there was less urgent. Stocks there »show an increasin tendency for the first time in weeks. Liverpool wheat futures closed %d higher, Berlin %c up, Antwerp un- changed, Budapest %&c up, and Paris wheat and flour 4c to %c lower. Minneapolis cars of wheat today totaled 195. last week 303, last year 246. Duluth had 28, last week 56, last vear 45. Winnipeg had 35, last week 24, last year 128. Minneapolis wheat stocks total 15,366,000 bu, an increase of 829.000 bu for the week. Chicago wheat receipts today 33,600 bu, ing st 14,400 bu last year; ship- ments $20,600 bu, against 36,293 bu last year. wheat receipts today Kansas City 78,000 bu, against 75,000 bu last year; shipments 76,800 bu, against 76, 650 bu last year. Local wheat receipts today 59,400 bu, or 54 cars local; last year 41,907 bu, or 1292 sacks, 33 cars local, 6 hrou h. ’ aoa oats receipts today 95,200 bu, or 40 cars local, 16 through; last year 73.600 bu, or 41 cars local, 5 through. Local corn receipts today 116,400 bu, or 72 cars local, 25 through; last year 92.815 bu, or 606 sacks, 73 cars local, 10 through. Total pr mary wheat receipts today 455,268 bu, agaimst 517,206 bu last year; shipments 264,120 bu, against 294,706 bu last year. Corn was quiet and firm. Cables were %d up on Argentine advices. Receipts were not up to expectations and country offers are lighter. The seaboard reports a poor export de- mand, but this seems not to be borne out by.the daily heavy export clear- ances. The general run of receipts has been disappointing to the bears, who expected farnrers” to market their grain more freely when wheat declined in value. Clearances of wheat and flour were 167,000 bu; of corn, 540,000 bu; of oats, 700 bu. Cash wheat closed about steady, but the market was very tame. Cash corn %c lower for yellow and sedinndt and dull. White grades steady. Cash oats %4%@%c lower for white grades and quiet.

He repeeted'y 4ays “we, including himself among them. Coming from such a source, the book is bound to stlr a bit ef Cialist as well as non-Socialist circles. The author covers the subject from every point of view. He goes back to gur Declaration of Independence and the social unrest of that time and since. He traces unconscious Socialism as it makes its Way in custom and law. He then proceeds to look into the next step of Socialism, points out the various modi- fications it has gone through, and an- swers many of its critics. In an !nter- and Socialism the euthor points out that Socialism is ‘‘the applied ethics of Jesus."" This chapter apnsists mainly of quotations from the New Testa- ment and their fitting in with Socialist ideas and ideals. In another chapter author endeavors to show that ism alone will bring equality of oppor- tunity for woman, make her mistress of herself and allow her to develop her- self fully. He also explains why So- clalism has seemingly been somewhat antagonistic to the church, this appar- ent antagonism, he avers, having been brought about by a total disregard of the interests of the masses by the church and its siding with the powers preying upon society. There are many quotations, and an index. (James H. West Company, Boston.) Red Cross — Cough Drops. Little sweetmeats. but very effective. J, C. GEITZ FURNITURE CO. GIVES BANQUET TO EMPLOYES The directors of the J. C. Geitz Sew- ing Machine and Furniture Co. gave a banquet to their employes at the Mar- quette Hotel Thursday evening in recog- nition of the faithfulness of their serv- ice. There were more than thirty pres- ent. Mr. G. Gelitz, president of the com- pany, gave a brief review of the firm's history, its phenomenal growth and its plans for the future. The company was founded in 1877 by J. C. Geltz.’ The enterprise was joined by his brother, G. Geitz, three years later, The company was Incorporated in 1896 for $20,000. In 1906 the stock was in- creased to $60,000 and in 1910 the capital stock was increased for the second time to $120,000. Mr. Geitz attributes their success largely to liberal advertising and to the untiring effort made to please customers. They have three stores, at 1315-19 North Market, 4706-08 Easton avenue and 518 Franklin avenue, respectively, and con- duct a gmeneral storage and moving bus!- ness. They are exclusive agents for the White sewing machine, the 1900 ball- 5c. Champion interchangeable gas and. coal ranges, claimed by them to be the best- selling article ever controlled by them. Mr. Geitz expects to sell 1000 of these ranges before the close of the year. Among the participants at Thursday’s banquet were: G. Geitz, A. E. Geitzs, W. S. Geitz, A. Reher, W. Elam, P. M.

HERE is magic in such words as T gold and diamonds. Its influence is felt at once when an author is round who dates a new period in world history from the day in March, 1869, when a negro shepherd boy picked up a pretty white stone near the Orange River. Few who have read a version of Aladdin reliably translated from the be to!d that if the Griqua shepherd boy pebble to an in- taliigent Englishman, it is certain to turn out a “superb diamond,”’ weighing at least 38 karatsa. That, in fact, was its weight, to be remembered as the be- ginning of ‘“‘Expansion.’’ When the his- torical imagination moves forward six years, it comes into full play on reading such a South African report as this, dated ‘‘Pilgrim’s Rest, 24 December, 1875: I beg to inform ‘you that Messre. Ors- mond and Barrington, two miners at Pilgritn’s Rest, found 18% pounds weight of gold {n one-half day’s work. The gold was weighed in grocer’s scales, the same as sugar. and washed out in a dish. Amongst the gold was one nugget of four lbs. weight, two of three Ibs. weight, etc., all coarse gold. “H. RHODES.”’ This H. Rhodes is highly energized at ‘Pilgrim's Rest’’ by the forces of sub- sequent world history when he sees gold weighed like sugar, with nuggets of four pounds, ‘“‘three pounds, etc.,’’ in the scales. He is perhaps the same age as the Griqua boy who had found the pretty pebble, but he is several years older than two other boys, who also become highly energized very soon. One of them is his brother, Cecil. Ce- cil was the son of an English vicar. The other boy, then about the age of Cecil, had religious antecedents with a claim to equal respectability and great- er antiquity. He was the son of a Jew- ish rabbi in London. He was known afterwards as Barney Barnato. When diamonds weighing 83 carates began to be found on the Orange River, Cecil, born in 1853, had reached the age of 16 years. It is said that he was born in ‘“‘the quiet vicarage of Bishop’s Stop- ford, as the Vicar’s fifth son, and chris- tened Cecil John.” The year 1870 found him. in process of removal from the quiet religious influences of home to Africa, landing at Cape Town from the Sarah Bell in June, 18%. He did not disturb the Vicar’s quiet after this . But once in Africa, he was so fully energized be- fore his twentieth year by the magic of gold and diamonds that he became the “Right Honorable Cecil John Rhodes.’ Premier of Cape Colony, and author of the ‘‘Era of Expansion.”’ Hts “Life and Times’ are now written out inte two thick volumes by “the Honor- able Sir Lewis Michell, member of the Executive Council, Cape Colony.’’ (Mitchell Kennerley, publisher, New York and London). It is the intention of Sir Lewis Michell in these two volumes to prove that after being shipped to Africa in his seventeenth year, this vicar’s son became the greatest Englishman of modern times, not excepting Lord North, Clive, Warren Hastings, Bar- ney Barnato, Lord Rothschild or Lord Kitchener. The proof is that when John Cecil Rhodes reached Africa, somewhat in advance of Bar- ney Barnato, the gold and diamonds of South Africa, with other assets of the Union Jack. now producing an- nual dividends by the ten million ster- ling, were all beyond the lawful juris- diction’ of Great Britain, while all are now under it, with their sritish status so firmly established that to attempt to disturb it would be a crime against the world's peace, At first, the son of the British vicar knew nothing of practical work in modern magic. He dug for’ dia- monds himself. This wearied him. Then he hired IKaffir “boys” or other negro “boys to dig fer him. He spent months, blistering himself the burning African sun, watching his negroes for fear they would find an 88-carat stone, and (being now feloniously aware of its value) would divert it from British assets. After all this, he realized wheer the of i@ in -_—_oe SO a the bing.” He began to capitalize ground on which others were blister- ing themselves into permanent pov- erty. Asa result, when he begins the ‘“Expansion’’ which introduces Twen- tieth century history, he had ex- panded and floated ‘stock enough to be ready to begome a diamond king in hig own right. Then as between diamond kings for the De Beers and Kimberley mines, one of the two is to be dethroned. In 1885, Rhodes with the De Beers mine, joined issues with Barnato at Kimberley. The rab- bi’s son was too much for the son of the vicar. Rhodes seemed hopelessly defeated. He sailed to Dngiand. It was not for the purpose of visiting the quiet vicarage of Bishop Stop- ford and hearing discourses on the Decalogue. At about this time he wrote: “I have no great use for churches.” What he did have use for was the Kimberley diamond stock which Barnato had floated in Paris. When hé returned to Africa, he had the voting power of this stock, which meant the control of Barnato’s mines. Later in life, Barnato was asked if he thought Rhodes a great man. “Yes, he was,” he said. ‘He bested ME.”"” The result was the expanded and consolidated De Beers and Kim- berley mines with Rhodes as King of Diamonds and Barnato as viceroy or knave in the same suit. When the of London, Paris and Berlin. As in the days of South Sea expansion, ev- erybody wanted them and everybody who could buy bought... When this had fairly begun, Rhodes went into politics, with the secret of suctess he practiced to the end. He called it “squaring” his opponents. He was charged at Cape Town with saying that “anybody could be squared.” He explained that he did not mean bribed, but placated and won over. Politically, he was often rude in speech, but he exuded money so free- ly that all. who touched him, even accidentally, as. Aladdin's mother did the lamp .when she thought it dirty enough to need cleaning, saw thv genius of wealth before them, offer- ing himself for their service. Rhodes said he wanted money as power. He; sqvared bankers and cabinet min- isters, dons and doctors, archbishops, bishops, priests and deacons, as well as laymen of all nationalities, includ- ing more especially the African. When he needed “concessions” on which to capitalize a chartered com- pany gréater than any since the days of John Law and Warren Hastings, he trekked out northwardly into the wilderness and found Lo Bengula, a land-poor potentate who had a royal signature to sell. Almost any other African king in easy reach might have done as well, but Lo Bengula made ‘‘grants’” now chawgtered “(for Rhodesia as a new British domain al- most as extensive as~Europe outside of Russia. Several British dukes and the most influential bankers of Europe were “squared” or admitted to the “ground floor.’’ The result was the South African company. Rhodes never intended that any one who could be easily and permanently squared should be killed or seriously injured, but Lo Bengula became in- convenient and was permanently pac- ified. Later when the German Kaiser revolted against finance, some power- ful influence in Berlin pacified him. There is nothing to prove that it was done by the bankers Rhodes had squared. But when the time came for overthrowing the Boer republics, Germany had other business than that of interfering. Rhodes had this simple creed. “Having read the his- tory of.other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and, that the world’s surface being limited, the great object should be to take as much of it as we could.’ (Volume I, p. 75.) Agreeing with this, his bio- grapher thinks him the geratest mod- ern Englishman. No secrets are left in connection with the Jamison raid. Rhodes and Jamison planned it to- gether. For twenty years, Rhodes had worked with those who intended the subjection of the Boer republics. But as Jamison was “premature,” Rhodes consented to be repudiated with him for the sake of appear- ances. At the same time, he began filling the British mind with a new vision-—that of the “Cape to Cairo” raliroad, making the ‘‘map of Africa all red.’’ This prospectus “squared” or enchanted England and Rhodes grew greater as a magician. The rest igs the story of ten years of bloodshed, spreading around the world. As far as Sir. Lewis Michell considers it, he makes it part of the — & | | Post-Toasties A Breakfast ~ Favorite — If vou haven't tried this sweet, crisp food there’s a ‘‘treat’’ in store.
