MOTHERS KEEP THEIR CHILDREN AT HOME One, However, Sees Son Shot After Hearing Imitation In- dian Warhoop—Youngster Tells Alf About His Daring Deeds After His Arrest. With an air rifle which he says he received as a prize for regular attend- ance gt meetings of the Christ Church Cathedral Boys’ Club, Willie Ryan, 12 years old, went out to shoot up the neighborhood. Willie was arrested Tuesday after had shot four boys. He says he was playing policeman, but the mother of one of the boys whom he shot says he imitate an he apparently was trying to Indian on the warpath, dancing around her son in a circle and emitting blood- curdling yells. While the police were searching for the wild boy with the rifle, Tuesday, anxious mothers in the neighborhood of Carr Park kept their children indoors to protect them from the lad, who, they believed had been crazed by reading wild west stories. -Starts on Warpath. Willie started on the warpath at noon.Monday. When night fell he had shot Emil] Epstein, 8 years old, of 4216 North Sixteenth street; George Able, 8 of 1225 North Fifteenth street; Louis Goldberg, 10, of 1514 Biddle street, and Lawrence Zimmer, 9, of 1225A North Fifteenth street. None was seriously hurt. ‘Willie is a pupil at Special Public School, No. 4,1721 Wash street, where instructions are given to defectiv children. ’ At - the Carr street station he said that he goes there hkecause he stut- ters, but he didn’t stutter when he told how he had tried out his new rifle by shooting the four boys. Disturbing Peace Charge. He will be sent to the Juvenile Court on charges of disturbing the peace of the boys whom he shot. The police say they cannot accuse him of discharging a firearm because an air rifle is not a firearm, though some air rifles are made with sufficient power to send a bullet through a three-inch board. “A fire-arm is. one in which powder and ball are used,” said Sergt. . Fitz- gibbon at the Carr Street Station. ‘‘No powder is used in an air rifle, therefore we can’t prosecute anybody for shooting a Mrs. Kate Ryan, hur- ried to the policéstation when she heard he was arrested. His first statement was that he obtained the rifle in the gymnasium of the special public school. After he had talked with his mother he told of getting it as a prize at Christ - Church Cathedral. Was Such a Good Boy. “IT started to go there last June and I didn’t miss a Sunday,” he said. “That’s why they gave me a rifle.” Mrs. Ryan says Willie took the rifle home Sunday afternoon and she gave him a nickel to. buy bullets. "He wanted to show it to his school teacher yesterday morning and [ let him take it along,’ she said The first boy that Willie shot was BRmil Epstein. Emil's mother says that. she was standing at the front door of her home when Emil startet to take lunch to his father. As Emil was crossing Carr street at Six- teenth street sie saw a boy rush toward him and dance around him, crying like an Indian. After the boy iad circled Emil several times le jeveied a rifle at him and fired. The bullet passed through Emil's lower lip. He was taker to the City Dis- pensary, where it Was said the wound was not serious, barring danger of Dlood- poisoning, .

Willie's story of how he shot Emil is @ftferent from that of Mrs. Epstein. He Rays that Emil stopped him and asked him to let him shoot the rifle. if Me tried to hit a tin can with it and he said he wasn't afraid to let me gp at him,” said Willie. “I shot and when I aaw I'd hit him I ran.” A few minutes later George Able was + ghot in front of his home a block away. says he was playing policeman. res he cannot remember shoot- 5 Goldbety and. Lawrence Zim- lI7’S A WISE HEN WHO KNOWS OWNER Man Calls Biddie, Mary Garden and Others and They Come to Him. Benjamin Thompson of 1806 North For- ty-third street in East St. Louis was passing Heffran:& Bresnahan’s grocery at Eighth street and Baugh avenue, when he stopped, started violently, and gazed at 14 chickens 1n a coop. Then he called out to Michael Bresnahan, one of the proprietors. “Those are my chickens,’ he said ex- citedly. ‘They werd stolen from my henhouse last Friday.night.” “How are you going to prove they are yours?” Bresnahan asked. “Just open the door of that coop and I'll show you,” said Thompson. Bresna- han complied. “Biddie, Biddie, Biddie,’’ called Thomp- son. | A rhode island rea jumped out of the coop and hopped cackling to Thompson's side. ‘‘Mary Garden, Mary Garden,’ son coaxed. A’ white leghorn hen with large feet left the coop and joined the rhode island red. Bresnahan is authority for the state- ment that Thompson called each of the 14 chickens by name and that each re- sponded. He had bought them from a man he supposed to be a farmer, but aft- er this demonstration of proprietorship he did not hesitate, he says, to turn them over to Thompson. ’ Thomp-

}LODGE BROTHERS, 1000 OF THEM, FIGHT FOR PASSWORD Riot in Fraternal Hall Causes Police to Enter Without Giving Mystic Signs. The Progressive Order of the West is a fraternal organization, but that didn’t prevent two members from fighting while 1000 other members looked on at the order’s annual convention in a hall at Eleventh street and Kyanklin avenue. For a time all forgot that according to the ritual of.the order they were brothers. Some took sides with Henry Rosen and others rallied to the standard of Abe Krishalka. The scrimmage looked like a dress re- hearsal for a moving picture Mexican revolution when policemen broke into the hall without giving the password. Rosen testified in the Dayton Street Police Court Tuesday that he was the duly appointed sergeant-at-arms and ex- cluded Krishalka because the latter would not give the password. Krishalka denied that Rosen had the authority he claimed. Judge Pollard fined Krishalka $10.

She Jokes About Kennedy as She Lies on Cot in the Hospital.

A young man stepped on to the garbage wharf at the foot of Plum street at 10 Pp. m. Monday and accosted Charles Burns, the watchman. “Where are they building that free bridge?” he asked. Burns pointed to a light on one of the piers opposite Chouteau avenue. “They’re a long time at it,’’ said the Stranger. ‘If you want to cross the river now you have to swim.’ He pro- duced a pipe, lighted it and settled down for a smoke. “Great old town fortably. The watchman assented. Presently the stranger arose, knocked Out his pipe, nodded a good-by to Burns, walked to the edge of the wharf and dove head- first into the river. For several seconds Burns was too much surprised to act. Then he seized a pike pole and thrust it into the water. Reports to Police, “Catch hold,’’ he shouted, but received no response. After a time he gave up hope of rescuing the man, and reported to the police that he had witnessed a suicide. ‘He was a smooth-faced young fellow, about 5 feet 9 inches tall,’”’ he said, ‘‘and he wore a black derby and a dark suit, with a gray sweater vest. ‘ guess he’d weigh 170 or 180 pounds.” Instantly the police of the Wyoming Street District recognized in this a de- scription similar to that of George Lee Kennedy, who thrice shot Fay Benton of 2724 Washington avenue Monday aft- ernoon. He wore a black derby, dark sult and gray sweater vest, and was de- scribed as 6 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 160 pounds. He escaped after the shooting, and the police supposition is that he finally determined to end his life. Miss Benton, who had not: heard of the river episode, was in a vivacious mood at the city hospital Tuesday, and said that when she recovered she in- tended to spank Kennedy. “He is only a kid,’’ she laughed, “but he is a bad little boy. He’d better not let me catch him or I’ll give him a good spanking.”’ She and Kennedy are each 2 years old. Two of the bullets passed through her left arm and the third struck her right shoulder. City hospital surgeons say that she is in no danger. ‘I have known George for only three months,’’ said she. “I went to the theater with him once or twice, and he thought he could dictate to me where { should and should not go. “Saturday I went to the theater with another young man. Monday afternoon I was sitting in my room combing my hair when George entered. He asked me if I were going out, and I said I was, with a girl friend. ‘**You’re going with another man,’ exclaimed, and shot me.’’ John Hoffman, a Belleville saloon keeper and several waitresses at the Belleville House, who say they know Kennedy, declare that he was in the town Monday afternoon and told them he had shot a womah. They thought he was joking. At about 6 p. m. he board a car for St. Louis, Hoffman says. Ken- nedy is a machinist.

Morris Gutman of Gutman Bros. Dry Goods Co. started from his home, 272¢ South Broadway, Sunday afternoon, at 2 o’clock, to. go to Old Orchard. He took a Broadway car, and when he reached Market. street a Meramec Highlands car was just leaving. He ran to catch it and swung aboard as it was in the middle of the block in’ front of the old Grand Theater. When he got to Old Orchard “he missed a large diamond, which was in his necktie when he left home. The diamond was worth $150. He thought he might have lost it on the car, and he went to the car line and waited un- til that particular car came along and he got aboard. The conductor and mo- torman searched the car, but did not find the diamond. Searches in Street. Then Gutman decided that he must have lost it when he ran for the car on Market street, west of Broadway. He went there and searched the gutter and the erevices between the paving stones. Monday morning at 11 o’clock he came to the office of the Post-Dispatch and left the following want ad:

DIAMOND STUD—Lost; pear shaped or old mine cut, on Broadway or Meramec High- lands car, Sunday afternoon; reward. Gut- man, 2726 8. Broadway.

The Home Edition of the Post-Dis- patch in which this want ad first ap- peared was on the street at 1 o'clock and among the first to pay a cent for one wastan old man who lives in af lodging house on South Broadway. Early that morning this old man had gone from his room to look for cigar stubs. Poking in the clutter of waste paper and sweepings in the gutter on the north side of Market street between broadway and Sixth street he had found a diamond stud. He had taken it to a pawnbroker who had offered to lend him $25 on it, but who advised him that it was contrary to law for him to keep the dlamond and to'd him to watch the want ads in the Post-Dispatch. Diamond Is Returned. So the old man was at the mouth of the alley on Olive street in the rear of the Post-Dispatch office when the first papers came off the press and in the Lost and Found column he saw Gut- man's advertisement. He went straight +o Gutman’s place, 2726 South Broadway, and returned the diamond. “What reward = shall asked Gutman. “Oh, anything at all, I don't need much,”” answered the old man. Gutman gave him $10, and that's the true story of how a little Post-Dispatch want ad made two men happy. I give you?”

Walton Rife stood between two loves when his, home at 1816 Coleman street was burning at 1:30 a. m. Tuesday. In one room were his four smal! chil- dren. In another were 38 violins, two harps and 67 mandolins, which he Lad made with his own hands through months of patient toil. His affection for his beloved instruments was almost but not quite, as strong. as -his fatherly affection. He forgot all about his love for the violing of his own creation, and saved the children. ’ Josephine, 7 years old, Nora and Cora, o-year-old twins, and Robert, 3 years old, were in bed in the middle room when Rife was awakened by smoke. The children, after being a week in the city hospital with mea..es, had been brought home only a few hours before. They had sat up late celebrating their return, and Rife had kept an unusual- ly hot fire in the kitchen range on their account. Overheating of the stove set fire to the woodwork. , Rolls Them in Blanket. When Rife ran into the children’s room, the flames were leaping toward their bed. Rolling them all together in a blank- et, he picked them up and carried them to Vernon Cummings’ home next door. Then he went back to save his be- loved vialjns, harps and mandolins, but it was too late. All he succeded in sav- ing was $45 In cash which he had kept in a dresser drawer. Rife valued the violins at $25 each, and he says that the total value of the instruments destroyed was nearly $1400. They were not insured. tife’s wife, formerly Miss Bessie Doffiow of East St..Louts, left him and her children 18 months ago and he says he never has beep aDle to learn her rea- son for doing so. Since then he has been cgring for the children and doing his work at home, so as to be always with them. Child Ran After Mother. Josephine was Christmas shopping with her father on Sixth street more than a year ago, when she caught sight of ber mother. Releasing her father’s hand, the child started to run after her mother, who was with two other women. The’ mother saw her and ran away. There was excitement in the street as the child pursued, calling ‘Mamma, mamma." She failed to reach her moth- er and returned, sobbing bitterly, to her father. 4 Rife says his wife's first change to- ward him first became noticeable after a spark of steel at the Fulton Iron Works caused him to lose his left eye. “T had no education,”’ Rife told a Post- Dispatch reporter, “while she had a splendid one.

ages of Jefferson City as a capital, he hopes there will be no row over the question of a site. Congressmen Morgan and Alexander are in favor of rebuilding on the old site. a HOUSE WILL MEET IN CHURCH SCHOOL Sentiment of Members ia Favor of Hadiey’s Bond Plan. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 7.-~Arrange- ments were made today for the State Senate to meet in the Supreme Court Building and the House in a hall in St. Peter’s Catholic School building. The sessions will begin as soon as the saga ings can be put in order. The House met this afternoon in a theater, and the Senate in the county courthouse. The bills which were lost in the fire which destroyed the capitol Sunday night will be reintroduced. The bills of the House which had been sent to the Senate are safe, as all the records of the Senate were saved. The sentiment of the legislators is to begin rebuilding the capitol, and it is thought that the bond issue election resolution recommended by Gov. Hadley will prevail. The question of capital removal to St. Louls is being generally discussed among members of the Legislature, though the leaders of both houses joined with business men of Jefferson City in a concerted movement to stop the talk of removal. Legislators Are Dined. A dinner was given in the Madison Hotel cafe last evening in the interest of Jefferson City. Among the local busi- ness men who attended were: Sam B. Cook, president of the Central Missouri Trust Co., former Secretary of State; W. A. Dallmeyer, president of the Ex- change Bank, and Charles A. Winston, a real estate dealer. Among the mem- bers of the Senate present were F. W. McAllister, President pro tem; George Humphrey and A. L. Oliver. Following a meeting of the Jefferson

City Commercial Club, yesterday, a del-’ egation of local business men visited the Madison Hotel, where they enter- tained members of the Legislature the entire day and far fnto the night with luncheons and at the bar. After this committee began its work. there was a noticeable diminution in the talk of removing the capital, until St. Louis members of the House and Senate arrived. Senator Brunk an- nounced last night that he was willing to start a subscription with $1000 to- ward a fund to build a capitoi in St. Louis. a 0 PRODUCE MEN FOR.

ee Why | Lost . iy Job Reasons Why Thousands Like Mo 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. In this

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, nwo 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 ig in himself until he ig first free from all fretful indispositions and worries, “That was my trouble. I was full of troubles. QThat’s why I lost my job. My. stomach in the first place wag 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. dyspeptic manners, 2nd rep ve atmo pheres. No employer wats 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 s0 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.

Lord Who Weds Miss Gould Today Receives Many Threatening Letters. By Associated Press. NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—Titled notables of England and members of represent- ative families in this country assembled in St. Bartholomew’s Church late this afternoon to attend the wedding of‘ Miss Vivien Gould, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Jay Gould, to John Graham Hope Horsley-Beresford, Lord Decies, an international match that has aroused the social interest of the Unit- ed States and England. Great throngs of the curious gathered early near St. Bartholomew’s to watch the wedding guests, but unyielding po- lice lines were formed to prevent a repe- tition of the scenes at the Drexel-Gould wedding last year, when the police were bowled over and the. frightened bridal couple almost mobbed by curious per- sons, Decies Tears Up Letters. Lord Decies had already received a let- ter threatening his life with a bomb if he wedded Miss Gould. The English peer complacently tore up the letter, but plain clothes men mingled with this aft- ernoon’s crowd and turned away several who seemed more than idly curious. The crowds could see little of the bridal couple and guests, for q large canvas canopy fastened to stout steel poles was erected in front of the edifice on Madison avenue and shut out all view except a glimpse of those alight- ing from the carriages. Choir boys preceded the wedding pro- cession led by the ushers, Lord Decies awaited at the chancel steps for his bride, and was attended by his cousin, Lord Alastair Graham, R. N., a son of the Duke of Montrose. After the bride- maids. followed the small attendants, baby Gloria Gould, who walked with Master William Beresford and Diana Daiziel, who was escorted by Master Marcus Beresford. RESULTS OF FOOD Health and Natural Conditions Come From Right Feeding. Man, physically, should be like a perfectly regulated machine, each part working easily in its appro- priate place. slight derangement causes undue friction and wear, and frequently ruins the entire system. A well-known educator of Boston found a way to keep the brain and the body in that harmonious co- operation which makes a joy of liv- ing. “Two years ago,” she. writes, ‘“be- ing in a condition of nervous ex- haustion, I resigned my position as teacher, which I had held for over above the camp long enough to see the message delivered to Lieut. Ruhlin, re- and after passing over the cruisers anchored in the harbor, landed. This is the first time the aeroplane has been used in actual military opera- tions in the United States and the flight was considered remarkable for an ama- teur aviator. For.the greater part-of the time Harkness was over the ocean or the Bay of San Diego. His machine worked perfectly and the flight was made without incident. ——--_-@---- TRYING TO END HONDURAN WAR PUERTO CORTEZ, Honduras, Feb. 7. —The preliminary conference relative to an armistice in the Honduran conflict was held aboard the United States steamer Tacoma yesterday afternoon.

Frank Teague Is Found in East St. Louis Ravine, Dying _ From Wounds. For five weeks box car thieves broke the seals of cars and plundered them of merchandise when freight trains stopped at the V. & C. crossing of the Southern Railway, in East St. Louis. to let pass- engers trains go by. As a !ast resort, E. E. Brown, special agent of the rail- road, detailed J. Frank ‘Teague, a watchman, at the crossing, whose ac- tivity in another part of the city had driven away the robbers after they had twice waylaid and beat him. The detail was Teague’s death war- rant. The thieves, from double motives of revenge and apprehension, are be- Heved to have determined to assassinate him. He was found lying in a ravine Monday night, 30 feet from the railroad tracks and 400 feet from the crossing. There were four bullet wounds in his head, two of them above the eyes. An- other bullet had pierced his left arm. One of his ears was part!y severed. He died an hour later at a hospital. He was 42 years old and lived at 1504 IIli- nois avenue, Fast St. Louis. Foreman Heard Shots. Ollie Chase, foreman of a switching crew, heard six shots at 7:30 p. m. Mon- day and turned in time to see the flashes of three of them. He stopped the train and found Teague. Last November, after a battle, the watchman arrested a negro thief whom he found entering a box car. The next day he was set upon, while off his guard, by a big negro, who took his re- volver from him and clubbed him with it. . A month later Teague arrested a man who was loitering about the yards as if picking up coal from the tracks. While Teague was leading his prisoner away, two other men attacked him and rescued the prisoner. Assistant Detained. J. L. Blackburn, a watchman, who was detailed as Teague’s assistant at the crossing, was detained by the po- lice. No suspicion attaches to him, but the police and railway officials be- lieve he may have seen the shooting and that he has not tdld all he knows of it. Blackburn says he heard no shots. “I got an eastbound freight train at the V. & C. crossing shortly after 7 p. m.,’’ said Blackburn. ‘‘Another man, who I supposed was Teague, got on the train a few cars behind me. I got off at Fifteenth street and walked to my home, 1808 St. Louis avenue.”’ Teague had been employed as a watch- man by the Southern Railway for two years. Prior to this he was a policeman in East St. Louis. Causes of High Living Expenses, report of the United States Senate committee. See the World Al- manac and Eucyclopedia for 1911.

The divorce suit of Anna Witte against Casper Witte of 4296 Evans avenue has taken under advisement by Judge Shields. Witte and his wife are first cousins and were married in Kentucky in 1896 following® a threat of habdéas cor- pus proceedings by Mrs. Witte’s moth- who objected to her daughter's mar- riage to the defendant. While Witte was courting his cousin she disappeared from home and went to the house of a friend, refusing to return. Her mother, Mrs. I.ammers, reported the girl’s disappearance to the police. She was a witness for her daughter at the divorce trial. The plaintiff's brother, George Lammers, was put on the stand as witness for Witte. He tes- tified he never saw his sister mistreated by her husband. On the witness stand the husband tes- tified that he still loved his wife and always alluded to Mrs. Witte as ‘Pet.’ The Wittes separated in 190, Mrs. Witte going to Seattle, Wash. She tes- tified that she had contemplated leaving her husband “and had kept track of the days he had been absent from work in the year 1904 with a view to using it as evidence for divorce. She said he was away from work 165 days. She also said that in the time they lived together he bought her only one dress. Witte told the court his wife left him without cause. He said that after she had been in Seattle two years she wrote to him for transportation back to St. Louis and he sent her a railroad ticket, expecting that she would live with him, but instead she went to her mother.

OPPOSE HIM BANKERS

Story Is That Kuhn, Loeb & Co. Are Antagonistic to New Yorker.

Officials in charge of the St. Louis offices of the Missouri Mountain System refuse to discuss re- ports from New York that control of the property has passed to the New York banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and that George J. Gould will be forced from the presidency. “They ‘know more about those matters down, in. New York than we do out here,’’ remarked one of the local execu- tives. St. Louls financiers identified with the Missouri Pacific interests predict that George J. Gould will be re-elected to the presidency at the annual meeting of the directors March 14. W. K. Bixby and O. L. Garrison, St. Louis directors on the Missouri Pacific board, are strong Gould adherents. According to the New York advices, Kuhn, Loeb & Co. have an option on 100,000 shares of Missouri Pacife stock, besides another large hlock which they acquired when the Pearson syndicate collapsed six months ago. At that time there was a semi-panic in Missouri Pa- cific shares, the common dropping $14 in one day on the New York Stock Ex- change. . One Side of Question. . Herétofore the chief financing of the Gould properties has been negotiated through Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who are now reported to be antagonistic to a con- tinuation of the Gould domination. In this connection a story is current in the local financial district that) New York interests, not identified with the Goulds, are displeased with the failure of the present management to establish the system on a better physical and financial basis. It is understood, also that friction has existed for some time between the sub- ordinate heads of the Missouri Pacific system. The resignation of a half dozen of- ficlals recently, including Alexander G. Cochrane, general solicitor, and Col. Wil- liam H. Phelps, legislative agent, now a member of the Missouri General As- sembly, was only part of Gould’s man- agerial troubles. It was generally known that Gould’s St. Louis attorneys repre- sented the American Tobacco Co., a corporation said to be part of the Kuhn, Loeb community of interest, before the Missour! Legislature. One of the bills which the Missouri Pacific agents had defeated persistent- ly was that relating to the prohibition of the manufacture and sale of cigar- etter. Shortly before the present ses- sion convened one of these attorneys was notified by the Tobacco Company that other arrangements had been made for handling the anti-tobacco legisla- tion and the services of the~-Missouri Pacific would not be needed. Fee of $10,000, The fee usually paid by the Ameri- can Tobacco Co,to its legislative at- torneys was 000. It is understood the corpo has transferred its Missour! legislative interests to the legal departmégnt of another St. Louis public service, corporation. New , Yor Gould’s frieds declate he has not sold a share of Missourl Pacific stock, but that he has realized more than $24,000,000 by the sale of holdings in other prop- erties and he can sell enough secur- ities to raise ample funds.

Shepley, a ‘iam Tavesty ta. oe | OPERA COMPANY ] ity to one’s task in art which is always numbers to fill the Century about two- thirds full, and, happily, the Aborn sing- ers sang with as keen a delight in their work as if they were presenting Bizet’s vivid music-drama to a crowded house. This is always of comfort to one’s soul, even while one deplores the fact of inadequate support of worthy opera. It proves that there are artists who do not gauge the extent of their endeavor exclusively by the reward received in dollars and cents—an exposition of fidel- of value for art’s sake. Maybé the time will come when stch devotion meets with a more congenial popular response. Louise te Baron in the title role fully met the high expectations aroused by her admirable singing and playing of the part of Azucena in “‘I] Trovatore’’ on Sunday evening. The velvety and pas- sionate Carmen score, rich in emotion- al quality, excellently -suits Miss le Baron’s deeply mellow contralto voice and. the several ‘‘great Carmen mo- ments’’ now so world-famous for the measuring of the artistic stature of the singer accepting such a test of vocal and dramatic gifts were finely met. In addition to this meeting of the part’s acting and singing demands, Miss le Baron ‘“‘leoked’ Cafmen to the Iife, seeming veritably the ‘alluring Spanish cigarette gifl and ally of mountain smugglers around whose vital person- ality. the story of the opera is s0 com- pellingly woven. Yet, while giving the title-role singer full credit for competent achievement, the truth must be conceded that the most memorable success of Monday night’s performance was scored by George Pickering as the Todeador, a part in which fi. Louis opera lovers have heard many of the world’s most famous dramatic baritones. Curiously enough, remembering his English name, Mr. Pickering possesses to an astonishing degree the Italian temperament, the Italian dramatic method, the Italian softness of enunciation and, most not- able of all, that admirable Italian trick, as one might call it, of the sudden and convincing emphasizing of the drama- tic word in song, the one stroke, here and there, that informs the lines of the score with their full emotional mean- ing. His singing of the ‘Toreador Song”’ was admirable and the audience re- sponded to it with well deserved ap- plause. I have heard more than one Escamillo, far more widely exploited and much more costly to hear, who failed to measure up to.this excellent bari- tone’s standard of genyine worthiness. The Don Jose of Signor Domenico Russo's essayal. valiantly sung in un- familiar English, won the audience’s ample favor and amply deserved the winning. It was instinct with dramatic fire, the glow of a hapless infatuation, deepening into that tragedy which log- ically follows upon Jose’s betrayal of his love for poor little Micaela and of his soldierly duty, and, properly, its ap- peal increased with the development of the story itself. The possession of a singularly sweet tenor voice capable of rising to the robust upon occasion en- abled Signor Russo adequately. to real- ize Don Jose at every moment of the opera's progress. Properly, then, he shared in full proportion the honors of a “Carmen” evening in which a Car- men, an Escamillo and a Don Jose of sincerely satisfying quality were brought into evidence. Bertha’Davis distinguished herself by proving to be one of the best Micaelas I have ever heard on a St. Louis stage. It's rather a thankless part, this of the helpless and finally forgotten little peas- ant swetheart of Don Jose, but it has at least one big ‘“‘song opportunity” and } Miss Davis scored here with memorable effectiveness. The Zuniga ef William Schuster, thé Dancairo of George Shields and the Remendado of Philip Fein were of satisfactory merit. The orchestra and chorus again, as in “I Trovatore,’’ proved generously efficient. Carlo Nicosia conducted with authori- tative mastery of his task. “Faust” is this evening’s offering. NEW VAUDEVILLE BILLS. Annette Kellermann, world-famous as the “‘Diving Venus’’ and said to be the most perfectly formed woman living, heads the Columbia bill which began its week at Monday’s matinee and evening performances. She appears in the div- ing and posing act in which she scored a two-years’ run in New York City, breaking all vaudeville records. Other features are La Tortejada, a beautiful dramatic and operatic star, in the pro- tean operetta. “‘Adventure of a Tprea- dor,”’ in which she plays four parts; Willard Simms and company, in their excruciatingly funny farce, “Flinder’s Furnished Fiat,”’ Including the _ § side- splitting wall-papering act; Wheeler Barl and Vera Curtis, in the comedy and singing sketch entitled ‘Innocents Abroad:"" the Navas, novelty gymnasts and startling trapeze performers; Clen:- ens and Dean, Sandberg and Lee, and the kinodrome. At the Princess the topliners this week are John C.

Other features are Stevens and Valerio, two attractive young women prettily costumed, in songs and dances; Musical Lowe, in an especially -clever instru- mental number; the Jupiter Brothers, in a hilariously comic offering of mys- tery, illusions and tricks of legerdetnain; Mattie Lockette, the original Mary Jarie in “Buster Brown,” in juvenile songs, dances and recitations: Roberts, Hayes and Roberts, in their singing and dan- cing sketch, ‘“‘The Cowboy, the Swell and the Lady;”’ Spencer Kelly and Ma- rion Wilder,.in “Melodies Old and New,” and the Bennington Brothers, Olympian athletes, in feats of strength. APOLLO CLUB CONCERT AT ODEON A BRILLIANT SUCCESS The audience at tha Apollo Club concert at the Odeon Monday night was 80 appreciative and go eager. to manifest its approval that frequently t broke in on the soloists with ap- plause at the wrong time. Francis McMillen, the solo’ violin- ist of the evening, was assailed with a voNey of handolapping during « rest in the Mozart minuet. He waved his hand to silence the noisemakers. The concert Wwas one of the best ever given by the club. McMillen, a concert violinist of the highest class, made the hit of the evening with his rendition of Paga- nini’s G string fantasie, the execution of which requires the hand of a mas- ter. Mons. Gino Aubert was the ac- companist. H. Evan Williams, the Welsh tenor was in rare voice. He sang Handel’s “Sound and Alarm,” for four spright- ly and melodious love ballads. The choral numbers sung by the club were “The Trumpet Calls Away,”’ “The Witch,” “Invictus” and “The War Song of the Dare-Alls.” Black Joe” was beautifully rendered for one of the encore numbers. “olal | New Senator’s Credentials Received.

PILOT KNOB, Mo., Feb. 7.—This city will give the site of its historic battle- field and 200,000 acres of Arcadia Valley land for the new capitol.

If the lawmakers were kept busy fishing during sessiens we wouldn’t have so many bad laws.”’ HILO, Mo., Feb. 7.—The Coon Hunters’ Club of Hilo held a meeting in the Bot- toms last night and decided to get the Missouri capital.

Only President Taft can call that special session. If YOU wish to see the known abuses and injustices of the existing tariff corrected AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE MOMENT; if YOU wish to have -this unjust tax removed | from the FOOD AND OLOTHING of the American people NOW, fill out and send this blank to the Post-Dispatch and your name will be added to the signers of a continuous peti- tion which the Post-Dispatch and the New York World will begin within a few days to transmit to the President.

NEW JERSEY HOUSE JOINS IN MOVEMENT Printing of Voters’ Petition Blanks Meets Approval in Washington — Seventy- Two Mayors Have Joined in Protest Against High Duties. By the Associated Press. TRENTON, N. J., Feb. 7.—The lower branch of the Legislature to- day adopted a resolution calling on President Taft to convene Con- gress in special session after' March 4 to reduce or’ remove the tariff on ‘she necessaries of life. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ALBANY, N. Y., Feb. 7.—It was by a straight party vote, 75 to 46, that the As- sembly adopted the resolution introduced by Cuvillier ‘of NewYork, calling upon President Taft to convene an extra ses- revise the tariff and repair the damages’ to the empty market basket.’ The debate, which consumed the great- the lower House, was the most interesting of the session. The Republicans, under the leadership of Merritt, a stand-patter, at- tempted to delay action on the resolu- re- sponding to the forceful speeches by Ma- jority Leader A. E. Smith, Cuvillier, the author of the resolution, and A. J. Levy, regulars, and Drummond, insurgent Democrat, rallied to the support of the’ resolution and sent it to the Senate by a unanimous Democratic vote. The insurgent members were quite as enthusiastic in their support of the movement as the regulars, which is the first instagce of harmony that has pre- vailed since the session began.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—Members of the House and Senate today applauded

| |it is the preacher’s own fault in not giv- the peopfe asking the President to call an extra session of Congress to lower the duties on the necessities of life. Representatives and senators expressed belief in the right of the people to the two co-ordinate branches of the Govern- ment—the. Congress and the President. But thesesame national legislators, while expressing publicly their belief in the need of an extra session both .on and off the floor of the Tiouse and Senate, pointed out that, as members of the legislative co-ordinate, branch, they could not consistently petitiom the ex- ecutive branch to take action, as it would be the same sort of attempted coercion that was much complained about by the legislative branch when a recent president was in office. Anti-extra session members of both branches of Congress received a severe setback when tidings were received from the White House that the President is standing firm for action now to reduce the tariff on the necessaries of life by he ratification of the Canadian reciproc- ity agreement. Representatives Mann of Illinois, Dwight of New York and Mc- Call of Massachusetts were the bearers of the tidings, after President Taft had summoned them for a conference on a plan of procedure in the House for the McCall resolution to ratify the reciproci- ty agreement, and for the purpose of learning just how the House stands. PASTOR WANTS EVERY CHURCH TO HAVE PAID PRESS AGENT Believes New spaper Advertising Is the Best Way to Fill the Pews. The Rev. Charles Stelzle of New York. superintendent of the department of church and labor of the Presbyterian Church, formerly pastor of the Mark- ham Memorial Church in St. Louis, was one of the principal speakers Tuesday afternoon at a one-day ‘conference on “The Problem of the Downtown Church” in Central Mission, 816 North Eleventh street. His subject was: “Principles of Suc- cessful Church Advertising and the Ef- fective Use of Literature.” He said that the newspaper was by far the best advertising medium for the church as it was for all general publicity purposes. The newspaper is read by practically everyone in town. And, if a newspaper has the confidence of the public, it is ail the more valuable, the advertiser thus Obtaining all the advantages of this confidence which has often cost many years of careful cultivation. He said that preachers sometimes blame the reporters for inaccuracies, but

ing the reporter courteous co-operation. Every church should have an expert advertising manager and the church shouldr set aside an appropriation to pay him, he said. G. B. St. John, fleld investigator of the department of church and_ labor, spoke on ‘‘How: to Make a Survey of Local Conditions.”’

“0 TNE 0 MAN, MRS, HAYES ADVISES GIRLS} ‘Mother Says I Was Hypnotized,’ Bride of a Month Now Suing, Declares.

“PROMISED ME_ $100,000” “But He Didn’t Come Across,” She Adds, ‘‘Got $16,000 in Bonds and Gems.’’

The May and December romance of Miss Vivian Stockwell Mitchell of St. Louis and ‘Col. William B. Hayes of New Orleans, reputed to be a million- aire ranchman and mine owner, came to an abrupt termination when an in- stallment man backed his wagon up to their door and drove away with their furniture. The bride husband is 64. They month ago in New Orleans after a five- year courtship which began in St. Louis. Miss Mitchell lived with her mother, Mrs. William G. Mitehell, at 728 North Euclid avenue. Simultaneously with the seizure of their furniture in New Orleans, Mon- day, Col. Hayes filed suit for divorce. A few hours later the bride filed a similar petition, with the addition of a request for alimony. Mrs. Hayes Talks. “T want to advise all girls not to marry an old man even if he has a billion dollars,’ said Mrs. Hayes to a correspondent in New Orleans Tues- day. “I must have been a fool. My mother says I was hypnotized when I married this old fellow, and I guess she was right. An old man and a girl can never be happy together. “Did he give you @ $500,000 dowry?’ she was asked. “He promised me $100,000 in bonds, but he never came across,” she re- plied with a sigh. “All I got was about $10, 000 in bonds, about $6000 worth of diamonds and an automo- bile.’’ Col. Hayes, according to .a dispatch from New Orleans, had no home in that city until his marriage, when he rented the Canal street cottage, which is not in a fashionable section of the city. Hayes first appeared in New Orleans four months ago. He displayed a big bank roll and said been out West and made a is 22 years old and her were married a he had fortune. Friends of Col, recall a message sent from there to the bride’s mother in St. Louis immediately after the wedding ceremony. It read: “Everything O. K.—Gussie.”’ Gussie was Mrs. Hayes’ maid, the bride’s mother. says. Dispatches from New Orleans say that she did not ap- pear there in the roe of maid and that she apparently was a.close friend of Miss Mitchell and was prominent in helping along the match between the young woman and Col. Hayes. Was a Clubman, Col. Hayes first dawned on St. Louis five years ago with cards of introduc- tion which readily gained him admission to many St. Louis clubs. He had social graces 4nd an air of wealth and distinc- tion and he boasted that he maintained homes in Paris, New Orleans and several other cities. Miss Mitchell, Haves in New Orleans then only 17 years old went with her mother to a children’s Christmas festival at the Missouri Athletic Club. Col. Hayes was introduced to her. In his courtly manner he complimented her on her beauty. He told her mother that if he were younger he would try to win the daughter’s love. Mrs. Mitchell at the time thought he was joking. She laughingly teld him to ‘‘go in and win.” That he was in carnest became ap- parent when he began to lavish atten- tions on the young girl. He made fre- quent visits to St. Louis to visit her. Married Jan. 5. Their marriage at the Monte Leone Hotel in New Orleans Jan. 5 was an event there. It was given out that Miss Mitchell had traveled to New Orleans in a private car at Col. Hayes’’ expense |

ALE AT Sr ie 4 and that he had given her $500,000 worth of bonds as a wedding gift. They went to live in a sumptuously furnished home at 4712 Canal street. Miss Mitchell took with her to New Orleans her maid, Gussie Meyers, whose name is prominent in the Colonel’s di- vorce petition. He alleges that his wife and the maid frequently went out at night with two young men to whom he was not intro- duced. When he proteS8ted because his wife kept late hours, he says, she called him names. In the brief period of his honeymoon, he alieges, he has been repeatedly assaulted, cursed and abused because he refused to give up a letter which .is bride wanted to read. Tells of Beating. “Both my wife and Gussie beat me,’ he says in his petition, ‘‘and I now have the marks of my wife’s teeth on my right hand where she bit me at the time of this assault.’” Hayes alleges that. his wife has squandered more than $5000 in the month of their married life and that she has in her possession jewelry and other valuables which he would like to get back. These include a $1500 diamond bracelet, a $1200 brooch, two $1000 diamond rings, a $2000 paradot necklace, a black onyx guinea gold cross and chain, a real lace collar and cuffs valued at $300 and three im- ported Japanese shirt waists worth $75 each. When Col. Hayes’ suit was filed, the Maison Blanche, a New Orleans depart- ment store, brought attachment proceed- ings to recover $1685 worth of furnish- ings which it was alleged were bought by Hayes and not paid for. The goods were removed from the house on a Sheriff's writ, Wife Denies Charges. Mrs. Hayes denies all of the allega- tions in her husband’s petition. She al- leges that he Slandered her to her ac- quaintances, gave her nothing for her daily expenses and compelled her to buy groceries on credit. She charges that he frequently cursed her and that after beating her he left their home Feb. 5, taking his trunks with him and declar- ing that he would never return to her. She asks for $300 a month alimony while her suit is pending. She asks that the Court issue an in- junction to'prevent her husband from disposing of the property she now has. This, she says, consists of a large quan- tity of jewelry, an automobile, valuable bonds and other “‘paraphernalial prop- erty’’ which her husband gave to her.

| Through ce GIRLS SCREAMS - SCARE INTRUDER: ESCAPE MYSTERY First Test of New Police Red Signal System Brings to Patrolmen to Scene.

Twelve-vear-old Alips Selvaggi awoke at 2 a. m. Tuesday ih her home at 1700 North Grand avenue, with a man’s fin- gers at her throat. Her screams fright- ened the man away, and he fled, pre- sumably as he entered the house, through a window qn the roof, from which the roof of an adjoining dwell- ing -is accessible. When the alarm was telephoned to the police, the Dayton Street District put to test for the first jtime its red-light system of signals. These consist of elec- tric bulbs on the police telephone boxes, ‘which can be switched on by touching a button at the station. | The policemen on the beats call up the station but ence an hour; but when they see red lights, , visible several blocks away, it is a sum- ;mons to them to call up at once. this system, 10 policemen reached the Selvaggi home within 38 minutes after Alice’s.cries startled the household. Virginia Selvaggi, 10 years oid, and Albina, 7, were sleeping with Alice in a rooni on third floor. Mrs. Selvaggi and Julius, 16 years old, - were .on the second floor. Selvaggi, a steam- ship agent, was. out of town. Albina was sleeping between her sisters, ‘and Alice, in terror, kicked her vigorously. She added. her screams to her sister's as the intruder fled from the room. Examination by the police showed that the first floor windows and doors were locked, but a window opening on the roof was found open. Mrs. Selvagei was certain it had been locked when the household went to sleep. Access to this window might have been by means of a ladder or from the adjoining roof. There was no ladder about, and no_,evidence that one had been set up. The polfce fol- ‘lowed the trail across the roofs to , the adjoining dwelling, which is like ‘the Selvaggi home and is _ built against it. The house adjoining is occupied by Mrs. Mary Wood. fhe had’ not heard any unusual noise, and two men who room there said they had not. The win- dow onto the roof was locked, and ‘he downstairs doors and windows seemed securely fastened. This left the question of how the bur- glar got into the Selvaggi home in doubt. That there had been a man in the house was proven by the fact that both Alice and Albina, not unusually imaginative children, had seen him. and that there were marks from his fingers on Albina’s throat. a

Mr. Cannon and the stand-pat leaders are shed- ding crocodile tears over the prospect that reci- procity with Canada will impoverish the farmer. The National Grange, it is true, has gone on rec- ord as opposed to this particular measure of Mr. Taft’s negotiation, but not for fear of bucolic impoverishment or any of the reasons mentioned by the guardians of the farm and the farmers. The Natjonal Grange objects to reciprocity be- cause it will make wheat free and not nails, be- cause it will cut the duty on cattle but not the duty on steel and iron. If there are to be losses as the result of the lowering of the tariff the farmer wants them to be shared by all the ben- eficiaries of the existing law. He is willing to take his chance, but only if all the others will take the same chance. Thus we have from an authoritative source the single objection the farmer will raise and the reason for it. We do not share the opinion that

reciprocity with Canada will emphasize privilege by making it still more exclusive, but we admit the cogency and force of the argument. Reci- procity with Canada is a small affair. The reme- dy the country wants applied immediately—the remedy the people voted for last November is a reduction of all tariff rates, and more particularly an instant reduction in all rates on the neces- saries of life. — —_— =— > ii i

The movement started by the Post-Dispatch aft- er the burning of the State capitol at Jefferson City for the transfer of Missouri’s seat of govern- ment to St. Louis is booming. It strikes a popu- lar chord in this city. It appeals to the imagi- nation and the judgment of leading men. The capitals of most of the states were selected when the states were young and when the rail- ways,’ the centers of transportation and the cities which make them had not been developed. The geographical centers of the states were favored, with the result that many capitals are in small and insignificant towns. Some, like our own Jef- ferson City, are rather inaccessible by rail. Being the seat of government does not insure commer- cial, industrial or transportation growth, nor does it retard them. The two have littie relation to each other. ' ‘ In pioneer days the small town was favored on account of its simpler ways of life and the im- pression that the large city had a demoralizing effect on State officers, especially on legislators. But that opinion is rapidly waning. The cities have become the centers of civilization, of pro- The great li- braries, the organizations working for social im- provement, men of light and leading, the pro- gressive social forces are found in the large cities. The government seat does not contribute to the growth of the city, but the great city dignifies the the seat of government. It provides a fit set- ting, adequate conveniences and civilizing and en- lightening influences. Experience does not bear out the theory that the influence of large cities demoralizes governments. Boston is the capital of Massachusetts, yet the laws of Massachusetts on many subjects, particu- larly the control of public service corporations, are models for other states. Virginia has not suf- fered from the location of her capital in Rich- mond, nor has Indiana because the seat of gov- ernment is in Indianapolis. The superb State Capitol of Minnesota adorns St. Paul, which in turn contributes greatly to its beauty and ac- cessibiljty. The conjunction of the capital with the two greatest cities is a source of civic pride and profit to the people of Minnesota. On the other hand, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York and many other states were not saved from plutocratic control and shameful corruption because their capitals were not their chief cities. The smallness and inaccessibility of Jefferson City has not protected our own beloved State from the humiliation of shameful corruption and corpo- rate domination in the Legislature. Accessibility by rail and water, ample hotel conveniences are desirable conditions for the State capital. The importance and dignity of the capital as well as the impression it creates in the minds of the general public are enhanced by its location in a large and growing city. The change of Missouri’s capital from Jefferson City to St. Louls would be far more advantageous for the whole State than for St. Louis, The argument of cost and historic interest went up in the smoke of the burning capitol. The heavy balance of argument is in favor of the capital’s removal to the metropolis. It re- mains for the St. Louis people to present these arguments to the General Assembly and have the question of location here presented to the people with the constitutional amendment for a bond issue for the new capitol building.

To the Edrtor of the Post-Dispatch. The interesting article in the Sunday Post-Dis- patch relative to the decline in population of the rural districts of the Middle West clearly demon- strates one of two things, or both. Either the op- pression of the railroads is driving people from the Central West to the cities enjoying deep water transportation facilities or else there is a tre- mendous case of race suicide to be considered. Complete figures of this census show an in- crease of a little less than 16,000,000 for the past decade, It is usually considered that the net gain by foreign immigration was about 9,000,000. If this be true there are left 7,000,000 increase by births of native-born and foreign-born parents. The 11 dormer Confederate states increased 38,415,- 269, which also includes nine-tenths of the negro increase; the balance of the negro increase need not, therefore, be further considered. It is a well-known fact that foreign immigration did not | flow into the South to any astounding extent, and as the previous decade showed only 352,584 for- eigners there (an increase over 1880-1890 of 85,494) we may conclude that the increase was not over 100 per cent, or 352,584. Now the increase of native whites of foreign parents from 1890-1900 was 4,- 171,667, and if the same increase took place from 1$00-1910, I obtain the following race suicide re- sults among the Anglo-Saxons and Celts of the Northern states: Gain from immigration Gain by births from foreigners.. 4,171,667 Gain by negroes 1,862,001 Gain by Southern whites........ 2,068,268 —

In Sunday’s Globe I noticed an article in ref- erence to our firemen, with a comparison of their pay with the firemen of several other cities. I presume the figures given are correct, and when we consider the fact that our men are on duty 21 hours a day six days a week, which equals 126 hours, or in other words, 15 days and % of eight hours each per week, it seems to me every right-- thinking man, whether a taxpayer or not, will heartily approve of any move which may be made toward getting an increase in their pay. I, too, am a taxpayer, and nothing would please me more than to know a portion of the taxes I pay would be appropriated to assist in giving the firemen of our city a substantial increase in their salaries.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Missouri has the best lawa of any state in the Union for the protection of game and fish, and yet the enemies. of game protection are attempt- ing in the Legislature to repeal these beneficent laws. The real motive in investigating the office of Game Warden is to destroy the game laws of the State and the records of those who are en- gaged in this attempt shows that they were en- gaged in the same business in former Legislatures.

All the Demo- crats voted for it, and half the Repub- licans. The latter held that the resolu- tion was in line with their party plat- form and avith the wish of the people. A demand for the extra session even less easy to ignore was the passage by the popular branch of the New York Legislature yesterday of Assemblyman Cuvillier’s resolution of similar charac- ter. The'debate was long and sharply ontested. The decisive vote was 75 to 4. Those Republicans who furnished the futile group of negative votes repre- sented neither the people of the State nor the rank and file of their own party. Those Republicans who voted “‘aye’’ did represent both their party and the peo- ple. In the World’s poll of many Re- publican business men of New York State, free from the power of which bosses wield in legislatures, more than half expressed a desire for an extra session and prompt relief from intoler- able conditions. In the debate at Albany yesterday Assemblyman Murray sought to amend the resoultion so as merely to favor President Taft’s Tariff Board and piece- meal revision. His effort at obstruc- tion is well answered in the World to- day by R. K. MoLea, chairman of the Committee of Wholesale Dry Goods Merchants, who argues that Congress ean and should remedy known injustice at once without depriving a Tariff Board of its legitimate functions. It is a known injustice that the poor . should face the blizzard in cotton or shoddy clothes because good woolen- mixed clothes are tariff taxed an av- erage of 61.20 per cent under a com- If so, we earnestly desire pound, or “joker,” rate.

No Tariff Board is needed to characterize those impositions.

MERGERS AND PUBLICITY. The magazine merger, discussed in New York telegrams to the Post-Dispatch, cotitemplates such a control over periodical literature as the Steel Trust exercises over iron production. Some suppose kerosene and Steel Trust endowments may effect finally a similar “merger” in the con- trol of higher education. With publishing houses merged, “taken over,” this great scheme of finan- cial genius might promise itself such success that not a single idea calculated to interfere with its plans, will be left at liberty except on good be- havior parole. The whole gigantic undertaking is already a complete failure, however. It is a failure in the nature of things and especially in the nature of ideas. Men or magazines which profess ideas may be subject to merger and control, but the ideas which move civilization pass out unmerged and uncontrolled by any bill of sale. As a very practical illustration of what this means, Post-Dispatch telegrams mention that the magazines which “merged” with the Morse inter- ests have been obliged to secure financial support elsewhere since that financier was committed to the Atlanta penitentiary. To paraphrase the Caliph Ali, the universal magazine merger which is intended to defeat the decalogue is insane while for any other purpose it is impossible.

As a native Mexican, an Aztec of the race of the “Little Indian’ who overthrew Maximilian’s empire, Arevalo developed genius for painting. On coming to St. Louis for study, he placed law’ above painting, because he wished to use the full strength of his mind to teach his countrymen the meaning of the eroention which includes every- thing.

The joint committee of the Legislature whose chairman is Senator White, could better employ that time in making other laws for Missouri. Hon. Frank Farris, who introduced this bill to in- vestigate the Game Warden’s department, has, on former occasions attempted to repeal the game laws of the State. Game and fish are of inestim- able value to the people of Missouri and should be protected by law. The report of the Game and Fish Commissioner for 1910 shows that this de- partment paid all expenses and has to its credit with the Treasurer of the State $62,000.

Say if the baking powder bribes Are not of record since the fire And no remaining thing subscribes To what base ends we were for hire— All one with Nineveh and Tyre, The famous thousand dollar bills, And all that narrative of dire And wicked legislative ills? Where to Locate the Capitol. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There seems to be an idea taking shape in the minds of some people that the new State capitol building should be located in the western part of St. Louis. Before that idea takes possession of the minds of the citizens of St. Louis to any great extent, would it not be well to call their atten- tion to the effect that such action would have? St. Louis is built in almost a crescent shape, bounded on the north, east and south by rivers, limiting expansion or growth either to the north, east or south, necessarily leaving the western out- let as the logical place for future growth and de- velopment; but why should we artificially encour- age the growth westwardly before the inner con- fines are fully built up? As we build rapidly to- wards the west we draw away from the eastern portion of the city, and sometimes leave big vacancies occasioned by the westward movement. As the city grows westward we are taxed more for additional police and fire protection, water and lighting and also an expensive drainage system. This increases city taxes; on the other hand, a toss of tenants within the confines of the city reduces ‘the taxable wealth. An effort should be made to utilize all the ground and territory close to the eastern confines of the city before we go too far west. In the O’Fallon Park district, on the heights overlooking the river, in my opinion, would be a beattiful location for the new capitol, if it is to be located in or near 8t. Louis. ARTHUR B.

United Railways’ Franchises To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch There is one section of the eity that will strong- ly protest against the granting of any franchises whatever to the United Railways Co. till they comply with some of the conditions of a franchise that has been held for 17 years, a portion of which they completed and the remainder of the same franchise has been incomplete for 17 years. The franchise referred to is that extending from Newstead avenue along Natural Bridge road to the city limits. The portion from Newstead avenue to King’s highway has long been finished, but from King’s highway to the city limits re- mains still.a hunting ground for want of street ear facilities. High city tax, without the car facilities it is rightfully entitled to the same as other sections of the city, is practically amounting to confisca- tion. So the policy of the citizens of the north- western section of the city is, no more franchises to the Wnited Railways till they ¢c with the wee ee eee : Man's love is of man's life d thing apart, "Tis woman's whole existence. 2 a the cold, calculating scientist, who sees love an love—as a mere eee Instinct, we ir. has cooked til it ia b ken this ey eu neeass A 4 tore ery or or as preeddn olled gr

Written for the Post-Dispatch By Roy L. ERE’S a letter from Uncle Henry,’ said Mra. Jarr, as Gertrude came up from the letter box and the mail man called and put a smeared missive by her place, She said “Here's a letter,” but she opened it and started to read it, knitting her brows and muttering her impatience at the quality of Uncle Henry’s pen, tnk, paper, spelling and handwriting, all of $s which were of the poorest. “What does he say? Want money or clothes or both?’ asked Mr. Jarr. The letter was addressed to him, but Mrs. Jarr usurped all the mail that came to the house. She also considered it a breach of trust and confidence when Mr. Jarr received any mail at his office. “Oh, he doesn’t say anything much,” said Mrs. Jarr; “and I can’t see why a man with as much money as Uncle Henry has wouldn’t expend a little of it in buying a ready letter writer. I’m sure I can’t make out a word he’s writ- ing. You certainly have seme queer relations!’’ Uncle Henry was Mrs. Jarr’s relation, but she blamed all the annoying sort on Mr. Jarr and took unto herself, as her very own, the rich and pleasant family connections on both sides. “What does he want?’’ asked Mr. Jarr. “He wants something or he wouldn't write. At that,-he generally is too stingy to pay 2 cents for a stamp and we have to pay for his letters at this end.’’ Mrs. Jarr stopped puzzling over the letter and peered at the envelope. “It looks to me as though there was something queer about this stamp,’’ she said. ‘It looks as though it had been canceled once before or was bought in a second-hand store, or something.” ®**woat does he say?’ repeated. Mr. Jarr. “‘*Dear. Ed’ (Mrs. Jarr read): I thought I would take my pen in hand and let you know that me and Hetty has been in miserable health all winter and the chickens have beén killed by foxes or some such varmint’ ’’—— “He isn’t vain, Uncle Henry isn’t,’ broke in Mr. Jarr. “I can see from here he is using a little, or lower case, |.” “Shut up!’ said Mrs. Jarr, sharply— “and I think the peach trees is ruint by the frost. They has started a new bank in SmithvHle, but I hear tell as how it is really owned by the Fiddlers’ Trust of Philadelphia.’ ”’ “The, Fiddlers’ Trust?’’ Jarr. ““That’s. what he says, and I guess he knows what fe’s talking about,” replied Mrs. Jarr. “Oh,” erled Mr. Jarr. “I remember now;,he means the Federal Trust. I heard they were going to open local] branches in small towns.” “Please don’t interrupt!’ Jarr. “Tt'’s hard enough to make out what he’s written as !t is!’ ** ‘And’ ” (she was reading again), “ ‘if you want to send me any money send a sacrificed check. After you get the bank’s sacrifice on a check it’s good as gold. They pay interest too, and as you only spend your money there in the city in sinful extravagance, I will put what you send me out at interest here, as I hear the Fiddlers’ Trust ts sound.’ ”’ ‘The nerve of the old villain!” cried Mr. Jarr. “He and “his ‘sacrificed’ checks!

Baltimore Woman Would Prohibit by Law a Practice of Which an Ardent Suffragist Approves. Written for the Post-Dispatch. By Nixola Greeley-Smith. HOULD kissing be abolished? Mrs. Calvin N. Gabriel of Bal- timore takes the affirmative side in the discussion of a problem which may interest many! persons, and Dr. Anna G. Freedman holds the negative view.

But Sam Cooter got well and everybody is disappointed because there hasn’t been much going en in Swope Comers this winter.’ ”’ “And there’s a man who runs a dairy farm and yet wouldn't give you a glass of skim milk!’ said Mr. Jarr. ‘Well, give me my breakfast and forget my relations.” “Oh, dear!’ said Mrs. Jarr. “Ger- trude’s burnt the steak so you can’t cut it)’’ “Cut it?” replied Mr. Jarr. “‘Why cut it? It breaks easy.’’

Young Commentators. N a Sunday school address a teach- er quoteg oddities from a num- ber of ¢hildren’s Biblical composi- tions that had been submitted to him in competition for a prize. Among the more whimsical oddities were: “Manna is being polite.” “Jerusalem was surrounded with walls to keep in the milk and honey.” “Jacob was a patriarch by trade. In-them days people lived on corn, like horses do now. They always called pudden and porridge messes. Jacob could eat a good mess, but Esau, who was the eldest, could not eat as much as you might think. The patriarch Moses never ate nothing except when there was a famine.”— it-Bits. = The Latest Oharge.

meaning and usefulness. Dr. Freed- man is well known as a suffragist, and Mrs. Gabriel, who takes the sterner view that “the utter mean- inglessness of the performance should have killed the kiss long ago,” is also an advocate of votes for wom- en, and a member of the Just Govern- ment League of Baltimore. It. may be news to schoolgiris, lovers, afternoon-tea girls and other devotees of the ancient and honorable practice of kissing that their favorite pastime is on trial for its life, but if they hearken to the harsh words of the prosecutor they will be in bliss- ful, or maybe kissful, ignorance no longer. ‘Kissing should be abolished,” de- clared Mrs. Gabriel. “The uttor meaninglessness of the performance, to say nothing of the unsanitary ele- ment of it, should have killed the kiss Jong ago. “The menactes to health that are difficult to get rid of, such as open sewers and such things, are be- wailed and bemoaned, but one of the most dangerous practices, one that constantly endangers the health and spreads disease, is allowed to flourish on account of the mere maudlin sen- timent that surrounds this form of caress. Robbed of this sentiment, there is nothing to a kiss.” TERN words! What would Cyrano de Bergerac say to them? I won- dered. Surely the singer of the kiss praises must °turn over in his coffin at the gross libel upon the kiss—‘‘the rose dot on’the ‘!’ of adoration,” “brush of a beeswing that makes time eternal,” or anything else you and the quota- tion dictionary please. Not being able to summon Cyrano from the dead or to visit the shrine of his modern interpreter, Rostand, I had to content myself with Dr. Anna Freedman’s opinion. I’m sure you'll all like it. ‘Do you wish me to discuss the kiss from a medical or a human stand- point?’ inquired Dr. Freedman, with delightful seriousness. ‘"Both,’’ I said. “Discussion from a medical standpoint would be much too long and compll- cated,” Dr. Freedman answered, ‘and such things are not always for the public. The kiss has a physiological basis, or excuse, or whatever you choose to call it, but I would have to explain the whole nervous system to tell you why. Many kisses are meaningless and to some unresponsive persons all kisses may. be. ‘Mrs. Gabriel must be one of these, that is, if she refers to the kiss as the expression of an overwhelming senti- ment between aduite. ‘But I tmagine she refers more par- ticularly to the kisses exchanged be- tween women who care nothing for each other. oof * fs wrong for any person, under any circumstances, to kiss a child on the mouth. This applies fust as much to the baby’s mother and father as to anyone else. “Many diseases may be conveyed to infants by a kiss on the mouth, and no mother who loves her baby will ever expose it to possible contagion by kiss- ing its mouth. “T @o not think kissing between healthy adults ts attended by the same danget. s ‘T think kissing between women who are utterly indifferent’ to each other should be abolished. ‘‘There is really no such thing as an indifferent kiss. There is the kiss of love and the kiss of hate, . a Judas kiss. If you kiss a person, man or woman, with indifference in your heart, you have given a Judas kiss. Don't you think so? “Many women exchange this type of kiss more from a senseless and mean- iingless custom than anything else. This | practice should be abolished, but laws %& |

cannot do it. Only improved education in ethics and hygiene could accomplish such a reform. “It would not be possfble to frame a law making kissing in public places, like railway stations or steamship pliers, a misdemeanor, and the persons arrest- ed subject to a fine. “Those very persons might be the ones who could kiss with perfect im- munity. “If there could be a law forbidding the kissing of defenseless babies upon thé mouth it would be an excellent thing. But you understand as well as I do that to enforce such a law would be impossible. “‘No,” Dr. Freedman concluded. ‘It is impossible te legislate against indis- criminate kissing. One can only edu- cate against it.’’ Perhaps Chicago University will take a hint from Dr. Freedman’s conclusions and establish a professorship to en- lighten the public upon the folly and danger of meaningless kisses. Or may be the New York public schools might add the subject to their list of studies. Cost of Living. HE high cost of living continues to furnish a theme for every- bedy.

HIS is the peried of bubbie-biow- ing in the baseball world. Fans dip the pipe in the suds—don’t take this too literally—and proceed to develop large, irridiscent futures for the teams of their hearts; futures, alas, that the least zephyr can dissipate. Out on North Market street, which is the home of the bubble brigade, and of the winter hatching of hoped-for cham- pions, they are blowing Cardinal pros- pects so large and highly colored that it seems a shame to smash them. But smash they must. In any case extrav- agant hopes only make the disappoint- ment greater when the blow-off comes. For, when you peek straight into the eye of the future, unless it’s a mirage, you can’t see any pennants fiying around League Park. Up on the North Side they think that Bresnahan is going to give the big teams a run for the flag this year. But a look fails to disclose more than a single team that the Cardinals appear certain to beat in the National League race. This is not idle swinging of hammer. In the present condition of team devel- opment Bresnahan eught to beat out the Boston team. He may beat out Brooklyn. But what is the ground for the seemingly prevailing belief that his team is going to pass Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Pittsburg, New Yerk or Chi- cago? . * * The O14, Old Stoty. N fact, any showing that Bresna- han’s team makes at all is up to his pitching staff. And one glance at conditions there will muss up even a well-groomed enthusiasm. Harry 8Sal- lee is a grdat pitcher. If he does what he has never done before—remain straight—Bresnahan will have one re- liance. The rest of the staff is purely hypothetical. It ig made up of Har- mon, who, saving his admirers’ opinions, has yet to make good, and of many young pitchers. In the, case of the lat- ter, can you recall any manager who ever had the good fortune to have three, or even two youngsters develop into greatness in a single season? It is highly probable that Bresnahan’s pitching staff will be weak. In fact, it is an 8 or a 10 to 1 bet against his getting three pitchers of major league bigness out of the juvenile bunch. And that means it’s about 10 to 1 to name a team outside of Brooklyn and Bosten that Roger can beat out. * . . Great Is the Infield. RESNAHAN has a nice infield, K and an incomparable catcher in ; himself. The rest of his club re- mains to be developed. Perhaps in two years some of those young pitchers who now appear so big and strong may have enough of the raw edges rubbed off to make good. But blowing the bubbles about them for next season is courting the explosion gure to follow. + a . Trimming A. B. ©. Safls. ROBABLY the last of those mam- P moth American yoo Congress tournaments was closed Monday night, when the event at the Coliseum concluded. It was a stormy voyage the A. B. C. ship survived, and that it came safe through troubled waters is due entirely to the world of energy dis- played by Dennis J. Sweeney and his associates. Only a few hundred dollars of deficit remain, and this is covered by revenue that is coming from adver- tising sources. But for the future the city associa- tions have been safeguarded to a cer- tain extent by a larger per cent of the entrance fees. They should be still fur- ther protected by cutting down the duration of the meet. The recent event lasted 17 days and the interest fagged toward the end, untii only those bowl- ers who were actively interested were at all keen about it. If the convention and tournament could be crowded into one week it would be better for all con- cerned. J Adolph Wolgast will embark on @ career that threatens destruc- tion Wednesday night, when he ventures his championship crown for the first time, seriously, in a short bout with Val- entine Brownheime, alias ‘“‘Knockout’’ Brown. If Adolph stands toe-to-toe with this gentleman he is apt to experi- ence some such feeling as Mahomet might have experienced had the moun- tain decided to come to him hurriedly. The chances are Adolph will stay dis- creetly away and box with the “knock- out’? person, trusting that a smirch on his aggressiveness will look better in the public eye than a sleeping turn on the canvas. Wolgast Takes Chances. NLESS popular opinion is wrong, MeFariand te Follow. But following Valentine, etc., comes Packey McFarland, the redoubtable fox of the Chicago stockyards. Wolgast will not be able to box with this young man to any degree of satisfaction. And if he rushes In where many of his kind have feared to tread, he may meet a worse fate. If he survives both McFarland and Brown, he must needs face Owen Moran of England in & finish fight. It ap- pears to be a trifle foolish of Wolgast to try out two hard men right with a newly-mended bone, and a champion- ship match waiting. It would be far while it is ripe and in -reach. a . .

HIGGINS TO RET ANOTHER TRIAL WITH CARDINALS Much Traveled Pitcher Again Due for Berth With Manager Bresnahan’s Team. FLYNN NOT TO COME HERE Brown Fans Will Not Regret That Pittsburg Cast-Off Is to Stay Away. Ed Higgins, the lanky right- hander, who has had several trials with the Cardinals, will receive an- other opportunity to show if he is of big league caliber this season. Manager Roger Bresnahan of the lo- cal Nationals, who is wintering in Toledo, has hotified Secretary See- kamp that Higgins’ release has been purchased “from the Terre Haute (Central League) team. Severa)] efforts have been made to dispose of Higgins, but he always lands with the Cardinals again. He Was released to the Terre Haute team at the close of the season in part pay- ment for Pitcher Hennis, who will report next month. That Roger still has confidence in the long fellow is indicated by his recall. According to Roger’s letter to See- kamp, the former’s parents are slightly improved in health. For awhile Roger feared that his father would not survive. Browns Don’t Want Flynn. The latest from Pittsburg is that President Dreyfuss will not let First Baseman Jack Flynn come to the Browns. The news will probably be welcomed by Brown followers. It was rumored that the inflelder was to land here in payment for Inflelder Corriden and Pitcher Malloy, who were released te the Pirates by Man- ager Wallace. If Flynn isn’t good job with the Pirates, Adeemed tnferitor for work on the Browns. The Pirates gave the Browns one first-baseman in Bill Ab- stein. While the St. Louis boy was welcomed, he failed to make good, proving one of the many disappoint- ments of the 1910 Browns. Unless Manager Wallace manages to arrange a deal at the American League meeting in Chicago next week, the first base job will be open to Pat Newnam and Young Flint. who hails from the Jackson (Cotton States League) team. That’s the same team from which Graham, who tried the job last fall, comes. Griff Has His Dates Mixed, Manager Clarke Griffith of the Reds of Cincinnati evidently has been misin- formed about the stay of the Browns in Hot Springs. From Redland comes the report that it will be impossible for the Browns and Reds to engage in a series of games because the St. Louis team will not reach the Arkansas Spa until March 22. ' Griff has his dates mixed. According to Manager Wallace’s program, the Browns will leave St. Louis March 1 and reach Hot Springs a day later. They will remain about 21 days and work out at the same park with the Cincinnati team. If it so pleases Managers Wallace and Griffith the Browns and Reds will) tie up in a few exhibitions gamés. How- ever, it Is probable that the games will continue only four or five innings with only youngsters in the lineups. The games will not be for blood. AMATEURS PLAY TONIGHT IN INTERNATIONAL CUE EVENT NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—All arrange- ments for the international amateur 18.2 balk-line billiard championship have been completed by the committee in charge at the Liederkranz Club. Charles F. Conklin of Chicago meets Dr. Leon- idas I. Mial tonight in the opening game. Wednesday afternoon Edward M. Gardner ef Passaic, N. J.,. national champion, meets J. Ferdinand Poggen- burg. In Wednesday night’s game Al- bert Poensgen, the German champion, first appears, playing against Joseph Mayer of the Columbia Club, the Phila- delphia champion. All of the games will be 400 points. Albert G. Cutler, the Boston profes- sional, will act as referee throughout the tournament. Hon. S. R. ivcaiied Side-Steps Fight With “Tony” Biddle NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—There will be no fight between the Hon. 8. R. Beresford and Anthony J. Drexel Jr., nor will Beresford tackle Warren Barbour or any other American society heavyweight. Why? Because the Honorable Bobby is not ‘‘fit.” In fact the Honorable Bobby never has been “fit” since he landed in New York. The blasted climate is most ‘strawdinry and he has a touch of the influensa— what? This announcement was made itn the Waldorf-Astoria, where the English party of Gould wedding guests is staying, - The Honorable Bobby received a eal! from the reporters. He was studying the construction of a cocktail when he got the cards of the newspaper men and.fin- ished his beverage and hurried over, “Tt gay, old chap, what can I do fer yeu?” he asked the first reporter he met. “Tell about the fight with Drexel.” “Oh, come now, I say, there wiil not be any fight, you know.

It is possible that the manage- ment of the New York club may trade Jimmy Austin, with the pepper, or Frank Lapérte, with the wallop, for Roy Hartzell of the St. Louis Browns. As in the National League, holdouts are few in the American. Boston has two—Bill Carrigan and Jake Stahl. The catcher has turned down President Tay- lor’s offer of $3500 salary and a bonus of $500, said Taylor announces he will depend on Jack Kleinow to do the bulk of the catching for hig team.

JENNINGS PLANS. TO CLEAN HOUSE President Navin Asks Waivers on Three Veteran Members of Tigers. DETROIT, Mich., Feb. 7.—The release of First Baseman Tom Jones to the Milwaukee (American Association) team is to be followed by the relegation of three other Detroit veterans to the mi- nor leagues, according to a statement from Tiger headquarters today. Walv- ers have been asked on the players, and already twq clubs have refused to waive on two of the men. The request for waivers on the play- ers may be a feeler for trades, but at any rate it means that the Detroit club is to be rebuilt in spots where weak- nesses have shown. “Chick’’ Lathers, the former Michigan University player, who was a sgubsti- tute infielder on the Tigers last season, has informed President Navin that he will not sign a contract unless he re- ceives an increase in the salary offered him. Pitcher ‘‘Minnie’’ Harden, the St. Louis boy, who made the spring training trip with Manager Jennings last seagon, has been released to the South Bend (Cen- tral League) team. Harden won 14 games and-iost 12 with Bill Coughlin’s Williamsport team last season.

NATIONAL INDO TANK MEET Ml COMETOM. A.C. Club’s Representative, Now in New York, Would Bring All Championships Here. A representative of the Missouri Athletic Club of St. Louis is in New York City seeking to obtain for his organization all the indoor national aquatic championships of 1911. Swim- ming is having a boom in the Middle West and the Missouri Athletic cub members are anxious to secure all the big national stars tor their meet. The plan will be submitted to the Amateur Athletic Union and, although it is net likely that the committee in charge will reconsider its decision to split up events, there is every prospect of St. Louls getting the biggest share of them. Three other clubs are bid- ders for various events which St. Louis is seeking—the New York Athletic Club, the Pittsburg Swimming Club and the Chicago Athletic Club. Monthly Meet, Thursday. Director of Aquatics Frank Sullivan of the swimming squad at the M. A. C. has been hustling hard to get his tank men in condition for a hard season. If the national events should be awarded to this city he hopes to be able to cap- ture a majority of the championships with Frizelle, Suttle, the Schwarz boys and other members of his squad. Thursday night the monthly tank meet of the club will be held, the usual dashes, plunge-for-distance and diving events being scheduled. Feb. 22 the an- nual water circus will be staged. AMERICAN HORSE GETS TOP WEIGHT IN BRITISH STAKES NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—Sir Martin is the best horse in training on the British turf, according to the estimates of the English handicappers. They have as- signed him the post of honor in the handicaps, for which weights were an- nounced Jan. 2%. He is the top weight in the City and Suburban, Victoria cup and Great Jubilee. In the City and Suburban, one mile and a quarter, his impost is 132 pounds and he gives six pounds to Bachelor’s Double and nine to that veteran performer, Dean Swift. His stable companion, Dalmatian, the Lest of the American 3-year-olds of 1910, is equally weighted with Mustapha and Bronzino at 121 and concedes one pound to Greenback. | In the Victoria cup, seven furlongs straight, Sir Martin’s weight is 183. Christmas Daisy, winner of last year’s Cambridgeshire and a winner performer over the jumps, is rated next with 123%. Dalmatian ranks next with 122. “TERRIBLE TERRY” NOW AN INVALID AT HOT SPRINGS HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Feb. 7.—Terry McGovern, the pugilist, is seriously ill here.

NOVELTY UNIFORMS PLANNED FOR J, M’GRAW’S HOPEFULS NEW YORK, Feb. %—The New York Nationals are planning te introduce some- thing new tm baseball uniforms this sea- son, It has always been the custom in the National League for teams to wear white or cream colored uniforms at al) heme games, but Manager McGraw has «a new idea—a white uniform with biack perpendicular stripes, black caps, black belt and black and white stockings. It ie not certain that this innovation in baseball toggery will be permitted by the league officials, but the Giant management will make a formal request for permission to adopt the change at the meeting of the league here this month. The uniform which the Giants wear on the road this season will be gray and biack, with the stripes running perpendicular. The caps will be gray and the belts black, with black and gray stockings. ILLINOIS PROMOTERS FORM NEW HARNESS MEET CIRCUIT Sunday, Fed. 5, at a meeting held at Olney, Tll., @ new fair and racing circult was organized to be known as the B. & O. Agricultural Fair and Racing Circuit. The officers elected were: Fred -Naumer of Altamont, president, and A. W. Grunts of Breese, secretary-treasurer. The towns in che circuit are Olney. Altamont and Breese, with the chances good for two more towns,

Under No Chemhéiines Former Champion, Will He Ever Box Again, fries, just starting for a trip Mexico with his partner, Jack and Barney Oldfield, has : public statement to the der no circumstances will he ever take part in another ring contest or even & boxing exhibition. This, Jeffries says, is the last time that he will answer the question that has been tosaed at , every day since that fatal July @ & Reno. Bee Apparently the stories coming from Los Angeles now and then, crediting Jeffries with a desire to meet Johnson in another championship battle have been pure fakes, not authorised by Jet- fries at all. Fakes, too, were the stories to the effect “that he was going te the City of Mexico to give boxing exh tions there. <i I talked this whole thing over with Jeffries in Los Anfeles a month efter the Reno affair, and the big fellow said * decisively that he had no intention of fighting again. He told me the cireume stances that led him to believe lowe! he had been “doped” before the and then said, as nearly as TI member his words, “I know I ier but it’s hard to prove, absolute proof tn black and white intend to say anything abou facts are bound to come out I get the proof I'll give it to lic, and then I may come out and make Johnson fight me again. But I s know that I'd care to fight, even then, I'm disgusted with the whole business. One thing is sure, if I ever fight ; it won't be with anybody but Johnson.” Lewis No Welterweight. Hugh G. McIntosh, writing from Len- don, says: “Barry Lewis agreed te meet Summers at 10 stone (144 pounds) at : o’clock fn the afternoon, He experienced difficulty in getting down to weight, aa weighed in at 10 stone 8 (148 peendaty forfeiting £100,” The contest was billed as the weight championship of the world.” The: best Harry Lewis could do was 148 pound@. at 2 o'clock. This settled all discussions about Lewis. He isn’t a welterweight, and never will be one. + 7 e ine Another interesting ttem in Mr. Mo- © Intosh’s letter reads: “There was an enor- ” mous crowd, and amongst others who en- © gaged boxes were Lord Kingston, the Bart of Carnwath, Lady Constance Stewart « Richardson, Mrs. Clement Scott and Me goodly number of society ladies,” “Johnny Summers,” McIntosh goes of “created a®remarkable impreasion by his gallant display against Lewis, and he was the only fighter, from welterweight té” heavyweight, that we codld induce to into the ring with him, Lewis ie a markable fighter, and has a chance anyone in the world up to the weight limit. He would most beat Papke if Papke could do 158 ne at the ringside. I have him signed Australia, but owing to lack of 6 there, am somewhat at « loss what to companied by Armetrong, Cotton, ; Flynn, Woodman and several other eel- ored gentlemen. Bill Lang is training at the old ‘Bull and Bush’ and is very con* fident. He was never better, and Australia will give a good account of herself Feb, 15. I have fixed prices from 10 in to 108 6d, and we expect to draw $30,000. Lang, even if defeated, can the white heavyweight champlonship the world. Kaufman has refused the tempting offers to get into @ ring him. I expect to sail from here Marek “3 and will take back with me some at? fighters to close the Sydney season oe. open the house at Melbourne with.” Se Alley Sidelights |, Jimmy Smith of Buffalo, called a champion bowler of the world, pulls down] all-event event, In nine games Re 1919 pins.

The next was Lillian Asmelsky, 6983 Wells avenue. She had just returned from three years of study at the Royal ~ Conservatory in Germany and she sang well, Nicosia said so, but he added: “It’s the German school of music, not sulted for the stage.’’ A young maa living on Poge boulevard. was next. He sang the drinking song from “Robin Hood” and when he was through the director handed him up his music and sald: “‘Next.’’ Four pupils of Stella Kellog Hams were next, including Torti. Two girls and a young man sang while others kept coming in through the lit- tle stage door and as each one sang the others stood and listened and praised, But Nicosia praised none of them except Torti and Rizer. No Stage Presence. Of one he said: “She sings very well but you see she has no stage presence.” Of another: ‘Too awkward.” and of another he said nothing but lighted a cigarette languidly and puffed a@ cloud of white smoke up into the shadows. Torti is glad he is to go. The enga-e- ment will take him to all the lafge cities and he will be singing nightly tn the best of schools, a grand opera com- pany. Those who failed gathered around him | in the wings and said they were glad too that he didn’t have to go out through — the little stage door disappointed after years of hope and of trying.

ca GIRL TELLS OF SHOOTING I, ; : Srreons Find Shot Embedded in ~ Heart and Shotgun Is Hidden | in Wagon. © quest Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., Feb. 7.—The un- _ Witting accusation of her father by a 6- _-- year-old girl has resulted in a State- _ wide search for A. J. Bass, whose wife's body was found in the ruins of their burned home at Bassville, Mo., on the morning of Jan. & At the same time dthe Coroner’s verdict. that she was - burned to death’ has been questioned through the issuance of a warrant for - tW6 husband's arrest by J. H. Mason, - Prosecuting Attorney of Greene County. | “Papa shot a gun off at mamma and dragged her up the stairs,” the child in- nocently explained yesterday when she ‘was questioned, following the exhuma- + tlon of the woman's body and the find- eo ing of bird shot imbedded in the tissues of her heart. “Tater a search of the premises re- vealed a shotgun, hidden in a wagon in the yard near the ruined home and some shelis were lying near it. ' The new inquiry into the death of Mrs. Bass, was inspired by her father, William Goodwin of Fair Grove. He was ‘convinced from the start that his daughter was not burned to death in the firé which destroyed her home and this belief was unshaken by the verdict of the Coroner’s jury. After he had questioned neighbors and had ascertained that the children were _ @arried into the yard and that their fa- a had leaped from a window on the econd floor, he obtained permission to have the body exhumed. Drs. W. E. Albright and W. H. Cowden of Fair _. Grove were engaged to make the autop- sy. The surgeons found several small phot, such as are used in shotguns, in the woman’s heart. _ Following this discovery the child was ~diestioned with the result that she told of the alleged shooting of her mother and the dragging of the body up the stairwey. , This information, together with the _ findings at the autopsy was placed ‘Before the Prosecuting Attorney and he ordered the issuance of warrant at once. Search has bean made for Bass, without success, although he is be- lieved to be in the James River dis- trict in the southeastern portion of the county. He went away soon after the inquest and since then his chil- dren have been cared for by his [ 4 »&#Giilsite Savor of its soups, which are = shipped all over the world.
