FIRMS CONTRACT FOR FLOOR SPACE May Department Stores Com- pany Gets First Six Stories and Missouri Pacific Gets 50- Year Hold on Section It Will Use for General Offices. ‘ The most important real eétate trans- action made in St. Louis in recent years Was brought about Saturday when the Holbréok-Blackwelder Real Estate Trust Company, together with Thomas H. Mc- Kittrick, closed a lease for the Barr Block, -at Sixth, Seventh, Olive and Lo- cust stfeets, on which a 2i-story build- ing, to cost $6,000,000, will be built at once. The biulding will occupy the en- tire block. | Simultaneously with the closing of the lease B. F. Bush, president of the Missouri Pacific Railroad, signed a con- ‘tract for a fifty-year léase on a’ large part of the biulding, to be used as gen- eral offices of the railway company. The May Department Stores Co. has leased the first six floors for # years, and there, according to present plans, will be one of the most magnificent mer-. cantile establishments in the world. The action of these two companies in taking so much of the floor space in- fures the immediate construction of the building. The work of erection will be- gin at once, it is said, and will be pushed @s rapidly as possible. The railway company probably will occupy all floors of the building above the ninth or tenth. The structure will be of fireproof con- struction throughout. It will be esuipped with a battery of nine elevators on the Olive street side for the use of the upper Office floors, and a similar bank of build, p Locust street side. ure co e _ which can be entered only from balco- nies built for that purpose, and which are absolutely proof against fire as long as the walls stand, will be used in the : * puilding.

NDICTMENTS FOR PERIURY BY COURT Decision Prevents Re-Indictment of Political Leader on Same Alleged Facts.
By Associated Press. , CINCINNATI, J., May 20.—Motions to quash the perjury-indictments against George B. Cox, banker and Republican political leader, made by his attorneys two weeks ago, were granted by Judge William T. Dickson of the Common Pleas Court, who announced his decision in the case today. ; The County Prosecutor at once moved to take the case to the higher courts on an Wilegation of error in the finding of Judge Dickson. If the upper courts find that there was no error, then Cox stands freed for all time on the charge. If the court should hold that there was error sufficient to invalidate the deci- sion, Cox’s case may be brought before a subsequent grand jury and he may be reindicted. Judge Dickson found the indictments defective in substance, this phase of the decision 0} -rating to free €ox not only from the indictments in question, but also from reindictment on the same al- leged facts by any subsequent grand jury. Cox was indicted on Feb. 21, and his case has been fought before fifteen judges of the cammon pleas, circuit and supreme courts of Ohio, the battle ‘of technicalities starting when § Cox, charging prejudice, swore off the bench Judge Frankj Gorman, then sitting fn the criminal! branch of the court of com- mon pleas, gat The motion to quash was originally made before Judge Gorman, but it re- verted 7 Judge Dickson, when the lat- te: was finally named to hear the case. Judge Dickson holds, in substance, that im taking Cox before the grand jury in. and compelling him to testify there and then indicting him for per- jury -because of that testimony, there was a violation of his ‘constitutional rights. The indictments against Cox charged that, in testifying before a grand jury in 1906, he declared that he had received none of the money alleged to have been ‘psid by various banks to county treas. urers as gratuities for the deposit of the county fund in the institutions, the alleged existence of these gratuities having been brought before the Drake investigating committee of the State

Pierpon or- gan today placed the stamp of approval on the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the case of ‘the Standard Oil Co. The Post-Dispatca correspondent met Morgan accidentally at the offices of the White Star Line, where he was arranging to be present at the launch- ing of the line’s new ship the Titanic. He said: “You may quote me as saying that.I consider the decision concerning Stand- ard Oj entirely satisfactory; also thet I expected it. The tone of the Ameri- can market shows that ft is correct. Now, that’s all J-intend to say about business.’ Asked about his plans. Morgan said: ‘I have just returned to London from a long trip on the continent.

On May 31 1 will go to Belfast to see the launching of the Titanic.” Concerning the relicquary of St. Mar- tin sold to him, and supposed to have been stolen from a French cathedral, Morgan .said: “It has been reported that it will be returned to the church, but that mat- ter has. not yet been adjusted. As to whether I have the original, that is not proved. I have learned that there are three or four similar statuettes float- ing around France awaiting buyers.”’ The banker added that he never felt better in his life.

Both Give Views on Railroad Question at Banquet to New Missouri Pacific Head. ROLLA WELLS PRESIDES Five Hundred Members of Busi- ness Men’s League at Southern Hotel Gathering.
The two opposing views in the railroad rate question were discussed by Ben- jamin F. Bush, the new presideat of the Missouri Pacifico Railroad, and Gov. _ Hadley at the Business Men’s League banquet in honor of Bush at the South- ~@tTn Hotel Friday night. Bush made a plea for higher rates on freight and passenger traffic. He de- clared the rates were so low that traf- ‘s fic was handled at a loss. The greater the volume of railroad business, he said, the greater was the loss to the carriers. Gov. Hadley said that if he had known “that conditions were so deplorable as ~~ Bush represented them, he would have .,, Sent to the new president of the Mis- souri Pacific a copy of his brief in the railroad rate litigation in Missouri so ‘ that he could have learned how realty 2the railways as essential to commercial prosperity.

The ani- mals were bleeding from the nose and mouth and their eyes had been swollen by the sharp ammonia fumes. Three times Redding was stricken with nausea, induced by the deadly gas, but encouraged by Cuendet, he kept on working until the last of the ll horses had been taken out. Redding was ill in bed when a Post- Dispatch reporter called on him Satur- day. He said he still felt the nausea vecasionally and his eyes had been burned badly by the gas.

Ries, pas- tor of St. Liborinus Catholic Church, Ho- gan and North Market streets, was found dead in bed at the parochial resi- dence, at 6:30 a. m. Saturday. The cause of death has not been ascertained. The repeated ringing of the priest’s alarm clock, which had been set ior 6:30 o’clock, gave warning that some- thing was wrong... The Rev. Father William Kemps, sitting on the porch, noticing that Father Ries was not heeding the alarm clock, went to his door and knocked. There was no re- sponse. Going around through Father Ries’ study, and his bedchamber had been left ajar, he found Father Ries dead in his bed. There was nothing about the condition of the body to indicate the cause of death. He had of late been afflicted vith a slight attack of throat trouble, but had practically recovered from it. He had. complained Friday evening, while sitting on the porch with his as- sistants, of the unusual heat, but did not seem to be seriously effécted by ity Father Ries was born in St. Louis, in St. Vincent’s Parish. He studied in Rome and was ordained 29 years ago. His first priestly service was as assist- ant to the Rev. Father Hoeynek at St. Livorius’ Church.

May 20.—Queen Mary loses no opportunity to ‘let some American women‘fere know that they do not en- joy the favor from her that King Ed- ward and Queen Alexandre bestowed on them. When Mrs. Ava Willing Astor was Griving through Hyde Park yesterday her motor car was halted while Queen Mary passed near Stanhope Gate. Mrs. Astor bowed as low as she could, being seatéd, of course. Those who saw it say the Queen did no more than to drop ber eyelids in acknowledgement of Mrs. Astor’s salutation. The contrast between the costumes of the two women was most striking. Mrs. Astor was a perfect picture of modern ‘‘smartness,"”" the Queen wore one of the sedate British gowns of which she seems so proud. Mrs. Astor’s black satin gown clung to her sq closely that one wondered how she contrived to sit down without something happening. The neck of her corsage was cut very low, revealing a dazzlingly white throat. Her black hat was enormously large, perhaps its size explained the fact that she was — in the automobile. Her dress was opened at the foot to allow freer movement in walking. Reclining as she was in her automo- bile, Mrs. Astor presented a startling but fascinating picture. The Queen was attired in a conventional bodice of gray cashmere, made with long, sleeves and finished in a point back and front after the fashion of 2% years ago. waist, fell in thick folds. Her hat was small and of an old-fashioned type, trimmed with three feathers, all on one side, and a velvet-bow on the other. Mrs. Astor created a sensation at Lady Saville’s fancy dress dinter by coming in a beautiful harem costume, the acme of grace and elegance. She wore a high gold headdress of transpar- ent blue veiling across her face, reach- Ing to the eyes. Her beautiful coloring and features were easily discernible. >» a “~ Distinguished Automobiles.

Within a radius of 100 miles of St. Louis containing the suburban territory of the city one half—the most populous half—is cut off from St. Louis by a toll-gate system which discourages 4 trade and hampers the growth and prosperity » of St. Louis by levying special charges on its traffic, - The Post-Dispatch is knocking that toll wall. We will continue to knock it until it is down and St, Louis enjoys free trade in every di- rection. We invite the co-operation. of all men and all interests to this end. i i hi = = Now that Diaz has fallen into the hands of the doctors, Madero has only to sit tight and wait. —_ enecengadiasts tet pon tet ea, CRI Oe HOY Toe or era omy RT Mg I KNOWING ST. LOUIS. The Post-Dispatch has recently published the record of St. Louis’ industrial advance during the last 10 years. It belongs to the general educa- tion of the “Know St. Louis” course. As it showed a gain in a single decade of 69 per cent in the value of goods “made in St. Louis,” that fact may be kept in mind for use in suppressing the ig- norance which asks why St. Louis is “losing fac- tories” or is failing to make more goods of its own. There is no such failure. The city has shown its power to go on making and marketing its own goods in greater quantities and values. The vague impression of those who do not know the record cs are not taking part in the work, belong to general conditions, which are not part of the his- tory St. Louis makes in its own way. The panic of 1907 was not a St. Louis product. In the five- year period which includes it St. Louis gained 23 per cent in spite of it, over the preceding five- year period. That is, 1909 showed a rate of gain 23 per cent above that of 1904-5, which showed 46 per cent gain over the fifth year back. Last year’s advance was greater than in 1909. This year the advance is into system which will make @esults for this.decade greater, year by year. But one who wishes to find results of great work already done will need to go beyond St. Louis as ft made the record of the first decade of the new century. “Knowing 8st. Louis” means knowing it has done great things already as a begin- ng for greater. The trouble with our climate is that there is noe particular demand that it give exhibitions in other parts of the country. ~The action of the City Council in confirmirg the Mayor’s nominees for various offices is com- mendable. Those members who were in the combination to use the offices for spoils purposes thought better of it. Undoubtedly the public’s disgust with the plan had a large influence. But the results so far are satisfactory. The real test’ will come, however, when, accord- ing to his announced program, the Mayor again sends in the name of James C. Travilla for con- firmation. The Council’s action in the case of the man who has fairly won reappointment by efficient services and proof of unusual fitness will be the real test of its adherence to the merit Le i i — - It is now reported’ that Lorimer is against Taft's renomination. Things are beginning to pome the President’s way again. THE WAYS OF THE WORLD. President Frederic W. Hamilton, D. D., of Tufts College has incidentally and indirectly indorsed |t : the baseball game here between the ministers and _ the lawyers. He declared that instead of spend- tng their time in the Sunday schools and ladies’. _ sewing circles, minist rs of the Gospel should get - @ut and learn the ways of the world. And how could such knowledge be more rapidly acquired tnan by piaying baseball against a team of law- \—sSwyers, men eminently versed in all mundane prac- y tices. Dr. Hamilton believes that ministers wil) talk more convincingly on the subject of religion if they will mingle more with the male laity. It is no longer permissible to class the world - with the flesh and the deyil as an obstacle to sanc- _ tity and a foe to salvation. To each one of us the world simply means all the other people, and _ the most of them are not bad, although many of _ tnem have strange ways. Much can be learned by associating with lawyers and ball fans, partic- ularly when the clergy meet the other two di- wens of bymanity in a pbilapthtepic contest. res THE STANDARD OIL DECISION. NO. 2. Monopoly Acts Penal Regardless of Forms. The decision of the United States Supreme Court against the Standard Oil Co. was unani- mous. Chief Justice White and all other justices of the court agree with Justice Harlan in it, as Justice Harlan agrees with them. The decision is that no such combination can exist lawfully in the United Statés; that the operations of all corporations, combinations or associations of persons, ‘working ,on the same or like systems for the.same end, are penal. This is the decision of the whole court as a finality. The difference in 6pinion between Jus- tice Harlan and Chief Justice White, representing the majority, may indicate the possibility of change in opinion towardssthe standpoint now occupied by Justice Harlan, without changing in any way the finality or the weight of the deci- sion itself. Chief Justice White has made this unmistaka- bly’ clear. He has based his opinion tuutc all such acts as those of the Standard Oil Co. are penal under the Sherman act and thg principles of American institutions on which the Sherman act is based. In considering the Sherman act, he has defined as an “undue restraint” every violation of its provisions against monopoly. He has included also every attempt of any combina- tion of persons or corporations or of any single corporation so to control the freedom of trade among the states as to restrict it, impede it, or lessen it in any way. While he has held that in each case as it comes up for decision, the court must decide under the rule of reason whether the acts proved are penal, he has shown that he a.ffers with Justice Harlan in opinion only; “every” case to which the prohibition and penal- ties of the law apply,) becomes “each case” in which the law is being practically enforced. While this might seem to offer hope of escape to “each” person or combination of persons now conscious of acts made penal under the law Sn “every” case of its violation, the Chief Justice, in announcing the unanimous decision of the court, also announces that no exception in favor of any penal act whatever is made by the form or manner of its commission. He points out that, the penal statute, now to be enforced in its finalities, was calculated “in view of the many new forms of contracts and combina- tions which were being evolved.” The purpose of the penalties of the law was to “make sure by an all-embracing enumeration THAT NO FORM OF CONTRACT BY WHICH AN UNDUE RESTRAINT OF INTERSTATE OR FOREIGN COMMERCE WAS BROUGHT ABOUT, COULD SAVE SUCH RESTRAINT FROM CONDEMNA- TION.” In the unanimous decision of the court and also in its unanimous opinion, this makes of no im- portance whatever the many shrewd changes of form, ostensibly authorized by law, under which the penal act is committed. Regardless of changes of form, through reincorporation, or in any other way, the plans, purposes and methods prohibited and penalized, must cease or the con- sequences of defying the law as finally decided are incurred in each act of its violation, withgut further room to plead doubt.of the purpose of the law itself. In spite of the difference of opinion between Chief Justice White and Justice Har- lan, all that fs left anyone arraigned for a penal act under the decision is the plea of “reasonable doubt” in his own case, which the “standard of reason” in criminal law offers in each case as the last resort against its penalties in every case. a Ap Ar. rr If the Mexican custom of calling politicians after the names of their leaders, such as Porfiris- tas, Maderistas and Reyistas, should be introduced into this country, we would soon have Taftistas, La Follettistas and Lorimeristas. To call a man a Lorimerista, when he was not guilty, would, however, lead to a breach of the peace. = = * — = THE TERMINAL COMBINE’S ANNEX. The newspaper annex of the Terminal combine asks what the Post-Dispatch has accomplished in the matter of the abolition of the Bridge tolls. Of course, the question is not asked in good faith. Having been on the wrong side from the begin- ning; having attempted persistently to confuse and mislead the public mind with reference to the railroad combine and its tolls, it now wants to confuse the public mind concerning the means and the forces that have brought about better conditions. The record shows what has abolished bridge tolls beyond the 100-mile zone. Everything that has been done, from the creation of the Municipal Commission and its work to the awakening of the public mind with regard to the east side bar- rier to cheaper coal and free trade with all the St. Louis industrial district has been accomplished by the Post-Dispatch’s policy of fearless exposure and intellig@nt opposition to conspiracies to op- press and prey upon St. Louis. This is well known in the office of the Annex, but it-is trying to discredit the policy of courageous exposure of schemes inimical to the public interest and in- telligent opposition to them. If wants to give free rein to the special interests in the future and at he same time sneak a little credit for what has been done against its policy of subservience and , soft soap. i hi Swe Now that Mr. Roosevelt has stated his objec- tions to the Anglo-America arbitration treaty, many a wavering senator will know how to vote. = = * . THE LABORER AND HIS HIRE. If Representative Edwards of Georgia can have his way abot it, the clerks or secretaries of members of Congress will in the not distant fu- ture receive their pay from the disbursing officers of the Hotse, instead of through the members. Congressmen have been certifyiug to the payment of $125 per month for clerk hire, and drawing the money. But, it has been frequently charged, some members have no clerks and others pay only a part of the $125, pocketing the balance. In no case, however, does the Government escape pay- ing the whole $125. It was not the original in- tention of Congress to make a clerk hire to its members, who are now suffi- | cfently well paid for their. services. Col. Theodore Roosevelt - continues to. utt his yoice for war. He’ rebukes those who cry “peace, green wth tree's 29 sheen ap Oe nt wae y present of the] other men are engaged in hot work. = = = : rT ww James D.

La A Ar rr velt stole from him. the phrase, gressive Republican who wants to stay on the track.” Such a theft is only petty larceny. ‘= a — a LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE The People Pay for All. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. When we read that former Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Charles P. Johnson, the lawyer, said that the Supreme Court decision in the Gompers case “was one of the greatest triumphs for labor,” w® wondered, and when we read that Labor Leader J. B, Conroy said, “it is a great victory,” we wondered some more, since the case has taken a quarter of a million dollars out of the pockets of producing workingmen and put it into the pockets of non-producing attaches of court pro- ceedings, and the court says these can go ahead and take some more. And when we read: “Oil Trust Sundered,” and that La Follette said, “Of course the people gain a great deal by a decision to dissolve the gigantic monopoly,” we wondered, and when we read: “Standard Oil to bow to the decision; stocks up,” quoted yesterday at $670, today were wanted at $€75, with none for sale,” we wondered some more, since the producing people, kicking against the high cost of living, pay the cost both of the court proceedings, dissolution and reorganization. SIXTY. % ’ Champ’s Chances. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Champ Clark’s candidacy for President is urged by many, because of his success as the minority lead of the last Congress and Speaker of the present called session. The spokesman of a mi- nority in Cangress and Speaker of the present “annex” go but little towards determining the required statesmanship and ability of a presiden- tial candidate. : The next Congress will determine Mr. Clark’s fitness for his present position, as also his ability to come up to the statesmanship and ability of the great Democratic Speaker, Randall, Kerr and Carlisle. When the Democratic national convention of 1912 meets it will be Ohio and New Jersey, or Ohio and Massachusetts, by acclamation. Missouri may reach the temporary or permanent chairman- ship of the convention and no more. M. K. How Did They Do It? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your problem of the Smith and Brown chil- dren drinking soda it seems to me the most im- portant, and we may say the most phenomenal and by far the most mysterious feature of the puzzle has been overlooked or ignored, purposely, for the reason that the wrestlers with this stu- pendous question were fully aware of the fu- tility of taékling that feature of the case, namely, how in the name of common sense any child could drink 10 glasses of soda.water; for it is clear from the bare statement of the proposition that that is just what they did, except the four of them that only drank nine glasses. True it does not ap- pear how large the glasses were nor how small the children; but it is evident that at least half of the children must have been very small, for allowing that the oldest of the two groups were 12 years and that they averaged down one every two years for eight years, the youngest ones would be only 4 years old, and I think that would be a reasonable conclusion; and then we have the assurance of a 4-year-old child (it doesn’t say whether they were girls or boys) drinking 10 glasses of soda water. Now JI have heard of men who drank 10, 15 or even more, glasses of beer, but it took some time to do-it even with the ef- fervescent nature of that beverage. So is soda somewhat inclined to “effervesce,” but even with that fact admitted we are incredulous and lack cenfidence in the major proposition. Of course we Know, with a vague kind of knowledge, something of the capacity of a thirsty child, and making all proper allowance, we submit that the 4-year- old that can drink 10 glasses of soda at one sit- ting is going ‘some. Please have these “solvers” solve this main and far the most important proposition first and it will then be time enough to tackle the minor question. J. W. J. McLeansboro, III. | Let the Clubs Co-Operate. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I noticed an article «n this morning’s paper that the real estate men were going to organize a club. Now that is surély the limit. The slogan is ‘‘get together and accomplish something,” and a few real estate men come along and say “separate and accomplish nothing.” Why should different commercial enterprises organize separately when we have two organizations that can take care of the men in all commercial pursuits, namely the Business Men’s League and the Mercantile Club, who have facilities and can accommodate double their membership? Such conditions should not exist, and it is detrimental to our city. ‘ Let’s support one institution and do it right and it will be a credit to our city instead of a dozen minor organizations that amount to nothing, : A BOOSTER. Some Inconsistency. To the Editor or the Post-Dispatch. “What is the matter with St. Louis?” Is the question not clearly answered in a morning paper which prints on page 2 Mr. James E. Smith's recommendation to the manufacturers of St. Louis to boycott the newspapers that dare take issue with them, and on page 3, directly opposite, the resolution of the National Manufacturers’ Associa- tion, among whose membership are many St. Louisans, asking President Taft to end the boy- cott for all time by punishment or dissolution of the. organizations prosecuting them. This resolu- tion is openly directed at labor organizations. Can we ever hope to have a greater St. Louis while our leading’ business men so confuse the public mind as to advocate two sets of principles for two groups of society?

Perhaps it is remarkable that in- stances of hereditary literary genius are not more common. Among recent exam- ples in England we might add the Dar- wins, who have afforded a*fine example of the family doctrine of evolution. But euch examples are after all rare and ene cannot recall any example of st- preme literary genius being repeated in the second generation. It was, I believe, a phrase of Pater that there was always about genits “something of the blossoming of the aloe.’’ In other words, there seems to preparation and a sudden and final flow- ering of certain unique qualities. And to support this view of a flowering sea- son of genius {n families we have such examples as the Brontes and the Ros- settis and the Tennysons, where liter- ary talent ts found in several members of the same family in a single genera- tion. - —— —————— 8 CENTS. From the New York World. According to the Tariff Board’s report on the pulp and news-print paper in- dustry, the labor cost of making a ton of paper is $3.27 in the United States and $3.19 in Canada. This difference of 8 cents a ton is an accurate measure of the Canadian ‘“pauper-labor” menace that reciprocity offers to American workmen. This is the 8&8 cents that makes the patriotic heart of Uncle Joe Cannon bleed for his about-to-be-devastated country. How can the free-born. American compete with the wretched Canadian who is ca- pable of making a ton of paper for 8 cents less In wages? Feeling Better. From the Kansas City Journal.

Woman’s Dress Better Than Man’s
Males Might Borrow Sensible Hints From Feminine Attire, Says Dr. Wheeler in an Interview for the Post-Dispatch By Nixola Greeley-Smith OMEN dress more, avangy? than men. For instance, W man wore a Dutch neck shirt in summer he would be infi- nitely more comfortable, amiable and healthy. Also, if men and women dis- carded the. vain practice of wearing shoes much too small for their feet they would get more exercise and keep in better condition. These are some of the interesting con- clusions of Dr. Claude L. Wheeler, as- sociate editor of the New York Medical Journal. He says that woman's dress is growing more sensible every year and that today man might borrow some of the points of her costume to his own great advantage and profit. “Women have worn some form of corset from the dawn of civilization,”’ Dr. Wheeler toid me yesterday, ‘‘and in its present form the corset is absolutely harmless. In fact, it may materially help some women to meet certain condi- tions of modern life. “Nature intended man to be a sort of superior savage, to live outdoors most of the time, to hunt and fish and to be able to travel great distances on his own feet. But the conditions of Civilization and the intentions of nature often clash, and the man or woman living in a city.has to make the best possible compromise between the two. “Women are doing this better every year. Look at the short skirts they Wear; the loose, comfortable, collarless waists. Even the peekaboo waist has fis hygienic advantages in summer, ag it is healthy to expose the skin to the air. Men might take a lesson from women in the matter of oollars, at any rate. What could be more uncomforta- ble than one of these stiff starched things?" Dr. Wheeler, who is a big man, with @ big, sensible gray head, gave an il- lustrative and impartial] tug at his own stiff white collar. “A few years ago an attempt was made to induce men to wear silk-and- linen shirts with soft collars in the summer time. But it was no use. It Wasn't stylish enough for the young fellows. They prefer to go around with their necks choked up in white collars that exert constant pressure on the jugular vein and the carotid artery, and with their feet crippled in tight “Oh, I used to do it myself,” Dr. Wheeler admitted smilingly. “When I was a young doctor I never cared to walk, was always taking hacks to So. short distances, Then one day | bought a pair of anatomical] shoes, shoes that were large enough an‘1 followed the lines of the foot, and T found I oould walk any distance. | had been wearing shoes that were too small for me, as most young fellows do I know of a young fellow of 18 Who was rejected at the Naval Acad- emy the other day because of filar foot caused by wearing tight shoes. “People itn cities don’t take enough exercise. They're not out in the open enough and they eat too much. But if” they would wear shoes big enough for their feet they would be less @verse to exercise. Practically the Only thing I have to criticise about the modern woman's dress is her Way ahead of her grandmother. I can remember the day when women wore prunelia slippers with both * jet made exactly alike—no iefts and rights, you understand. The high- show that the wearer didn’t walk or work. The Chinese aristocrat ‘is really more consistent in this matter. for besides wearing high heels she lets her finger nails grow into long claws to prove that she doesn’t work her hands either. “If women will discard high heels and tight shoes they will find that exercise is no longer a bore. Even our men don’t take exercise enough. They may go to polo games in auto- mobiles, and sit around in their ma- chines watching the game. But what good does that do them? We should exercise more or eat less. The best rule for eating is to partake moder- ately of whatever you like best.” Now could there be a better diet, a wiser doctor or'a more agreeable prescription? But remember, also: Women, beware of high heels; and men, discard -our tight shoes and your choker collar.

Love and Written for the Y dear young men, you must not | feel that the girls of your ac- quaintance are interested in you only be- cause of the theaters you take them to or the candies’ you bring them. If you really do think any girl has such an unpleasant point of view to- ward your friendship I would drop her if I were you. I am prompted to this little sermon by a letter I received only this morning. A young man writes me: ‘“T have been calling very frequently on a young lady I admire, and have tak- en her to theaters and to parties; My
needed all my spare money recently for her care. Do you think I should cease calling upon the young lady bécause I am no longer in a position to take her out?’”’ My dear young men, you do an in- 4ustice to yourself and to all sweet, nice girls when you suspect people only care for you for what you can bring them. “Tried to Reform Him.’’ E. WRITES: “I know a man bad and like him, but he drinks. I have tried to reform him as best I could. Was it my place to do so?” Strictly speaking, it is not your place to interfere in the man’s life unlegs you are engaged to him. Yet, on the other hand, it. is well to do all the good we can in this world. She Kissed Another. HK N. K. writes: “I took a young lady ® toa church sociable lately. While we were there I left her for a few mo- ments and she kissed another man. Do you think she should have done this as iong as it was I who took her to the sociable?’’ The young lady should not have kissed you or any one else at the sociable. He ‘‘Admires’’ Her. M. writes: “I greatly admire a ® young lady I see quite frequently in her office; but we have never met. I spoke to a friend of mine who knows her, hoping he would introduce me, but he did not. Would it be proper for me to ask him outright to introduce me to the young lady?’ It would be perfectly proper for you to ask your friend to introduce you to the young lady. ’ ‘His Neighbor. G. writes: “‘There is a young lady ® who lives in my neighborhood and . admire her very much, though I have rever met her. However, I know the young lady’s name and I] think she knows mine.

Fa al Phe late Addie Joss, shortfy before he died, stated that the ‘pitching consti- -tuted about 80 per cent of the strength ofa baseball team. Joss was a close student of baseball. The showing of the Browns, in the last few weeks, would indicate what the former Cleve- lahd pitcher said was true. ainst the Athletics, the Browns had pogr pitching. The entire team went to pieces and four games were lost. The Nationals of Washington called next the pitching improved. Presto! The entire team looked like a different out- fit and four games were won. . John Powell pitched a good game in the opening contest of the series with the Yankees of New York Thursday, — although he lost, the game was played and the Browns didn’t look ike @@ienders. Joe Lake essayed to 4ve the second game Friday. But he ~ ghowed the effect of recent work and, thee going to pieces, the entire team _ failed him. The result was that the Browns looked like the same old ‘ Browns.

At that, the team is ill- provided with pitchers, and Roger is to be congratulated on his good work in enginering a shaky slab staff through 80 many trials.

Taking the present standings of the two clubs into consideration, if a .600 mark will win the pennant for any club in the American League, the Detroit club will only have to win a trifle more than half its games to capture the flag. Philadelphia, in the meantime, will have to be traveling at the rate of .427to tie. THE ATHLETICS’ FAMOUS DROP. OWEVER, collapses in the bate- ball world seldom come by de- grees.

|GRIF'S DISCARDS HELP CARDINALS HALT RUSTLERS Oakes, Huggins and Mowrey Cut Off Runs and Save Roger’s Game.
BOSTON, Mass., May 20.—Philanthro- pist Clark Griffith is daily putting the St. Louis Club under obligations to him. Clark has helped the Phillies into first Place, by his contributions of players; it is now becoming plain every day, that he has contributed largely to such backbone as the St. Louis Cardinals possess. Friday it was again the former Cin- cinnati trio whose splendid; play con- 5 to 3. Golden pitched a nice game, and Steele, who replaced him, when control seemed wanting, was even better. Likewise Koney and Steve Evans aided largely with their bats. But the defensive work of Mowrey, Huggins and Oakes, pre- vented the Boston club from stopping the Cardinals. Former Redlegs Shine. Oakes, as usual, played his part in yesterday’s session, three of the catches that are making him famous over the circuit. One effort in particular, whieh was taken over in right field, saved the visitors at least one tally and possibly the early blow- ing up of Golden. Huggins and Mowrey were the head- liners for the Cardinals in the batting line, and each succeeded in getting three singles out of four times uf: Their work, that of Huggins especially,.in the eighth inning with the bases choked, when the Rustlers were about to score on a seem- ing basehit by Herzog; was -excepticnal. After a desperate rum, Huggins speared the ball close to the ground, back of first base, and before he could recover his equilibrium, snapped the ball to Koney for the third out. He was given a liberal amount of ap- plause by the small crowd of 1600. Konetchy’s sane. -run Shwe in the fourth ining put the Cardinals in the running and enabled them to craw! up on the lead that the Rustders had secured earlier in the session. The drive went over the fence. * om . There is no man on the Cardinal téam that works as hard as Roger does.

a TORONTO, Ontario, May 20.—The opening of the Canadian racing season here today was signalized with a pro- gram of seven races at the Ontario Jockey Club’s Woodbine track. ‘The big feature of the schedule was the King’s plate, which, however, i8 con- fined strictly to dominion-bred horses. The other opening day features in- cluded the Minto stakes, the Woodstock priate and the Scarborough steeplechase. All the prominent American stables are entered liberally for the meeting, with Sam Hildreth in the lead. The form shown by his horses at Pimlico makes his stable a favorite. s meeting marks the introduction of the mutuel system of speculating in Canada.

Wretched Work in Field Costs Browns Victory Over New York,
OE LAKE, and Bill Bailey who suc ceeded him, permitted the Yankees to overcome a 6—l1 lead and the Browns dropped the second show to the New Yorkers by a 10—6 tally. ‘The Browns played a miserable field- ing game. Jack Quinn, who saved Thursday’s game for the Yankees by pitching sterling ball in the ninth inning,. was the first slab- man sent to the hill by Acting Manager Charley Hemphill. He continued until the sixth inning, when the Browns, by some timely hitting and loose fielding by the Yankees, added four runs to their total of two. Then King Brockett finished up. The Yankees were the first to score. Their first run came in the second, Knight opened the round with a triple over Shotton’s head. He hugged third while Lake threw out Gardner, but when Johnson rolled to Wallace Jack scored.\ It geemed that Rhody’s-.peg to Stephens had the first sacker, Bes stant Mullen called him safe. a ee It was tied up in the Browns’ half when Laporte singled, stole, went to third on Sweeney’s high throw and scored on Stephens’ single to center. The Browns took the lead in the third on Shotton’s single, steal and : Austin’s double just inside the first base. It remained 2—-1 until the sixth when the Browns got to Quinn. Laporte again started a rally with a single. Hogan laid down a sacrifice but was safe when Quinn drepped the ball after tagging him on the line. Stephens tried a sacrifice but Wallace tapped to Quinn, whose throw to Sweeney got Laporte at the plate. Myers’ safety filled the bases, Then Lake hammered to center, for a base. The hit scored Stephens and Wal- lace and when Daniels made a a wide re-
: turn to the infield, Myers came over, while Lake raced to third. Shotton got a single to Johnson and Lake tallied run No. 4 of the inning. It looked like a Brown victory. But in the. eighth the Yankees got busy. In- cidentally Roy Hartzell and Charley Hemp- hill, two former Brownies, did most of the heavy work. Hartzell started with a single. Cree raised one to Shotton, but Hemphill—he got in the game when he moved Wolter to first after benching Knight, in the seventh-—doubled. Gardner hit a single and Hartzell and Hemphill tallied. Johnson also poled a single as did Sweeney. The latter’s drive went to center and when Shotton let the ball roll to the center field wall, Gardner, Johnson and Sweeney scored, tying the score. Brockett, who succeeded Quinn, after the sixth, got a’life when Myers dropped La- porte’s assist. After Wallace fumbied Daniele’ grounder, Lake was benched and Bailey sent to the hill. He struck out Wolter. But Hartzell, up for the second time in the round, got his second single and scored Brockett and Daniels. Bailey struck out Cree. However, Bailey was unable to stop the Yank’ In the ninth and they made victory doubly sure by adding two more runs. Hemphill walked for a start while Bailey dubbed Gardner’s bunt long enough to give him a hit. Johnson laid down a sacrifice and Hemphill scored when Wal- lace threw out Blair, swinging for Swee. ney. Brockett singled and Gardner tal- lied the tenth run for the New Yorkers. The Yankees made 14 hits, |, The Browns got 12. However, the errors were eix for the Browns and two for the Yankees. Shotton, Gardner and Hartzell led the hitters, each getting three safe out of ffve trips to the pan.

Mrs. Pulitzer is the sister of young Mr. Webb. ‘It was stated today by a member of the Webb family that neither Dr. Webb nor Mayor Gaynor had the least ob- tion to the match, but that the fath- rT of the bridegroom had asked his ‘gon to wait until he was a bit older before taking a wife. “Mr. Webb Jr., who is 2% years old, was graduated from Yale in 197. He ig in the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co. The Rev. Mr, Stonecifer was gworn to secrecy.

This afternoon Ger- trude and W. Seward Webb Jr., were ‘ | also wedded here. Let me introduce you to. the happy couple.” "By way of a wedding toast the party, mugmented by Gen. Gray, walked down exe street, the principal thorough- _ f&fe, and entered Watson's drug store, where they ordered soda water.

Published by Davia McKay, Philadelphia.) IN CIN-~ A CLASSICAL TRIUMPH CINNATI, : INCINNATI has produced an “acting version of the tragedy Which Hegel considered the most berfect of all dramas.’’ The tragedy is ‘“‘The Antigons of Sophocles, trans- lated from the original by Joseph Ed- ward Harry, professor of Greek in the University of Cincinnati. He made the translation for a special performance of the play in the Cincinnati Grand Opera I:ouse. It is a great success. It is in luighly readable Shakspearean Enegfish the 12-syllabled, singing verse of the old play is turned into the 10-syllabled blank verse of Shakspeare, which is elo- quent and sublime but not singable. The choruses are turned into rhymed odes of the English style introduced by Dryden. and worked out further by Gray and Collins, with later help from Andrew Lang and others. They make good Classical English reading, but they are not songs. Everything in the old play was made to sing. It is much closer to the best modern Italian opera in this 1cspect than to anything we think of as a modern “drama” or tragedy. Cincin- nati is a singing town. If it keeps on ‘pegging awa?’’~at Sophocles, it may learn things about singing that may astonish the Oxford Grecians and all the cther modern Grecians who “have all cther good qualities though they cannot sing.”’ If it were not for this, Cincinnati could well afford to take all the grue- frome things it has inherited from Sophocles, wrap them carefully in the covers on which it prints Hegel’s in- dorsements of them and then bury them. The Antigon is not as gruesome as geome other Greek plays of the same reriod, but it is full of the grume of the results of becoming too cultured. As a chapter of the family history of the man uho guessed the “riddle of the Sphynx,’’ it shows a considerable part of the worst when ‘“‘race suicide’ is working out logically for the extermination of those at the 40p who become unfit to survive because they are*too superior. It ought tc make anyone who understands it, sick at the stomach. If Cincinnati loses its appetite after each modern production of the play, it will be a certain sign that Cincinnati culture is reaching the point where it can appreciate the old Athenian’s warnings. If this is the point where they are needed, then Prof. Harry has done his city good service.. He has made only one mistake to which his outside sympathizers need object. Pe was mistaken in making an apology in his preface for his work. It can be placed side by side with translations from Franklin to Plumptre and there will be no need to apologize for it. In the old play, male to sing, the English line: ‘Each star, that shines far, spark- ling dim_in darkling blue,’’ may be less singable than most of the 12-syllabeled Itnes which are thus turned in readable Shakspearean verse: “For true ft is. no evil ever grew ae In current us among mankind like money, * This sacks and ruins cities; this drives men From home, makes nature fall into revo, And by its base, corrupting influence, ¢ Trains erstwhile honest souls to set them- selves To dirty practices; plants in the hearts Of men the seeds of every wickedness Ly And teaches them to know all godless cee This shows that Prof. Harry can write Elizabethian blank verse with the best of them. It may be regrettable that by setting his words to dance-hall tunes Rudyard Kipling, who does not “bother with the, classics,”’ is much more classi- cal than any modern ‘translator of Sophocles has yet. become. But Prof. Harry may be altogether mistaken in his conclusion that it Is no use trying to show Cinetnnati what this old play really was when its poetry meant music (almost maddening in its mel- ody) from beginning to end. He shows that/ he has music of that kind in his ear now, but under the traditions of the University of Cincinnati he is too dignified %o risk “letting it loose in the town.” Sophocles had no dignity of that kind. Hence he was classical. If Prof. Harry, instead of living in a mod- ern .Ohio ‘musical center, had lived in Athens about 500 B. C., he might have been fully as classical as Sophocles. Then the “little vagrom boys” on the ystreet might fave sung his classical productions after one pearing. “THE SWORD MAKER.” HEN robber baron’s castles Glosed the Rhine to ‘the commerce of the cities, Frankfort - was the choice of an Emperor's Roland, until he organized a | “cufrr STIRLING BEHIND THE, PICTURE REWEW. .

It has been the fortune of “The Old Dance Master,” by William Romaine Peterson, to arouse recollec- tions of Dickens in the minds of En- gtish critics and, while lumberingly ex- pressing appreciation, they bring forth the old bone to sharpen their teeth. All art expression is exaggeration in some direction, the overemphasis of es- sential and the submergence of the nonessential. A novelist chooses ac- cording to his temperament that which he will cry up. If he deal with the sorrows and persecutions of the poor he will paint some fact blacker than the truth, because all the facts, which can- not be presented, aggregate that black- ness. If he paint love rg&lized he will symbolize in an incident or a caress the glory that life spreads thinly. In so far as Mr. Peterson is a dis- ciple of Dickens, or a follower after the later de Morgan, Arnold Bennett et als., he is a maker of quiet comedy. “The Old Dance Master” is a pleasant story developed in a series of incidents which serve to present persons who have the roundness and gmovement o life. Herr Habenichts, the old -dance master, is a prophet of loving kind- ness, admirably brought into relief by the blondined boarding-house mis- tress, Mrs. Wix, by the gin-drinking Mrs. Bleeks and by the fodolish Ara- bella, Dowager Duchess of Berkshire. Sir John Marduke, the ‘‘filthyanthrop- ist,"’ as one character calls him, is a Strange creation; a man made mad by brooding on the fact that his wealth came from “the slave trade conducted by his grandfather. His son, Monty, is an unsatisfactory hero, and Dorothy Larkin, the heroine, has little substance. It is in his genre pictures of the cab proprietor Larkin’s yard,. and in the boarding house of Mrs. Wix that Mr. Peterson js at his best. He is on firm ground there and all his work is strong and effective. .(Little-Brown.) | oe ee “ACCOUNT RENDERED?’ HAT to do when lovers, who VW are adherents to the convention against divorce, discover that they were parted by crime and thrust into matrimony that has grown’ in- creasingly horrtble? -That has often been the problem facing novelists who would satisfy the instinct in readers to let lovers have their way without vio- lating the readers’ theory of the prob- abilities for such charactere creations. E. F. Benson, a clean cfaftsman of the “story-telling art, has cleverly found’ 4 way in his latest novel, “‘Account Ren- dered.” His disposal of a superfluous husband finely rounds a story which runs freely and effortless from its gay, whimsical beginning to a conclusion that is Greek in its justified finality. Nothing so becomes the man who goes out as his taking off. He rises from dullness, from a heaviness that is almost exas- perating to a height the ostensibje hero cannot reach. The heroine, Violet Allenby, ts a gov- ernese to two *imps when the story opens. The household is rich in diver- gences and the eldest son is the lover. ‘Violet tells fantastic tales of her “‘gold- * to amuse the Imps and hole life is changed by golden uncle in and her inheritance of aot dal i § ( : “LEILA.” (INTONIO FOGAZZARO, for all his A warm devotion to the ideals of Catholicism, cannot convince the Propaganda that his work is not inim- ical to the church. ‘‘The Saint’ was placed upon the Index and his latest novel, “‘Leila,’’ has been forbidden Cath- olics. ‘“‘Leila’’ is a continuation of ‘‘The Saint’’sin that the hero of the later nov- el was a disciple of the great preacher who: sought to re-infuse Italy with the great truths of Christianity. However, the later novel is not a sequel, nor does it c@ntinue militantly the advocacy of reformation. The girl ‘“‘Leila’’ is the daughter of a gambler parasite and a loose woman. She is morbid in her pride and purity. A man to whom she was engaged to be married died; he was an only son ané his parents insisted on’ Leila taking his place in their home. A chance visitor is a ae doctor, whose ardent na- ture was disturbed by the Saint’s teach- ing. The young folk love each other, but Leila’s pride proves an‘ obstacle to ah understanding, until a saintly woman sacrifices her life to bring them together. From the standpoint of the novelist Foggazzaro has net succeeded in creat- ing dramatis personae of great worth or in telling a coherent story. There are great episodes, which arouse the reader’s sympathy for all save the mor- bid girl, such as the death of Leila’s guardian; the annual mass for this fine old man’s wife, the coming of the strange priests and the dying woman's abandonment of her plans for an op- eration, that might save her life, to serve Leila. The lay reader will be puzzled to account for the expurga- tion of the novel by the church author- ities. (Hodder-Stoughton.) “LOVE UNDER FIRE.” 4 HAD drifted slowly across the | river, clinging with one arm thrown over a log, expecting each moment the musket of some startled picket would spit red through the dark, and scarcely daring to guide my unwieldy support by the slightest movement of my hand in the water. The splash of motion might mean death in an instant, for keen eyes, sharpened by long night vigils, were on the stream, and those who had ventured the deed. before me had failed utterly.” Thus does Randall Parrish start ‘T,ove Under Fire,” his new story of the Civil War. His hero, Lieut. Gales- worth, a Union scout, is pictured en- tering the Confederate lines. And here is the closing paragraph: “I lay there gazing out through the open window, her rounded arm under ‘| but diligence. hi beail, SX, ‘ eak: still pressed tightly against mine. My nerves no longer throbbed, my veins no- longer pulsed with fevor.’ She never mdved; just held me there against her, and in silénce I fell asleep. * Between these two paragraphs is a thrilling and romantic story of the Civil War, of, battle and the unex- pected meeting..of the Union scout and the Corifederate Major’s daughter. How. .the course of true love was| made to run smoothly through the elimination of sectional prejudice and the- removal of the’ young woman's renegade suitor is an engaging story well told.— (A. C, McClurg, Chicago.) “QUBED.” QUEER name, Queed. But its bearer was even more unlike the common run of men than Queed is unlike the common run of names. He had no vice but selfishness, né virtue He was book-fed, pook- reared, and so nearly as is possible for one dwelling on the earth and beneath the sun, he Knew nething but books. His purpose—so unhuman a being could hardly be. said to have an ambition— was to write a monumental book “which should be the “last word” on knewledge of the bookish sort. To put a soul into this creature was no less an achievement than to put breath into Frankenstein’s creation, or into Pygmalion’s marble. It was a mir- aclé. And the miracle was - performed by &@ woman, : “Queea’ is the first novel of its au- thor, Henry. Sydnor Harrison, a. Rich- mond newspaper editor. It is strikingly original in style and situations. There ware reminders, nevertheless, of ‘The Honorable Péter Stirling” and of “‘The Passing of the Third Floor Back’’ in the boarding house-scenes and in the dawning of human sensibilities within the breast of the recluse. It is not until near its close that the story has a real bero. It has no vil- lain, at least none who performs the ordinary function of baffling the hero. The foil for Queed, instead, is a very likable young man, who does the right thing when he. finds that -he has un- wittingly done Queed an injustice. But the book has a heroine, from the first chapter, where her big ‘“‘pleas- ure dog,’’ Bee (short for Behemoth) bowls the “‘little doctor’ over a street crossing, to the last, where Miss Shar- lee Weyland comes into the heritage of every heroine—a man’s love. “Evolutionary Soctology’’ was the subject of which Queed, at the outset of the story, was writing. The book contains no more evolutionary sociology than is required to show the. character interesting processes of evolution. The first is the evolution of Queed; the sec- ond is the evolution of the South, on which the writer is an optimist. The pictures of life and sentiment in the new South and the character of Col. Cowles, who stands for the South’s best traditions, are pleasing features of this admirable novel. (Houghton, Mifflin & Co.). ¥ eee POSTMORTEM PROSECUTION. HEN the Government of the W United States was being planned after the close of the Revolu- tionary War, the British commercial in- terests which had resumed friendly trade relations, planned to get back the po- litical advantage they had lost by war. When Alexander Hamilton became Sec- retary of thé Treasury under Washing- ton, he was at once strongly attacked on the suspicion that he represented this British interest. His opponents, in- cluding James Monroe, afterwards Pres- ident, learned of documents showing that men close to Hamilton were speculating on his ‘paynients’ from the Treasury. Hamilton, when explaining. these docu- Monroé:. denounced as @ scoundrel and blackmailer one Reynolds, whom the aocuments showed receiving money from him. Everything which promoted the suspicion that he was speculating for profit with a combination outside, re- lving for profit'on his acts as Treasurer, Hamilton éxplaified as features of black- | nbdids. As Hamilton handled this. case in his published “Vindication,” {t became one if the most famous in American history. As it is made part of “A Study of Alex- ander Hamilton,” Fontaine T. Fox re- views Hamilton’s career and influence on the present. Some incidents usually forgotten or hardly Known at all, are developed, as when documents are quot- ed showing that Hamilton and Monroe were on the verge of a duel, exchanging what were virtually the preliminary car- tels before both recognized the folly of Vacation and Education are combined in a European trip and there is no more comfortable and in- | expensive way to take one than by the roomy, bi paces, ONE CABIN steamships o North German Licyd i ster Rete your from Baltimere to ee remen d .

This is what Mary Heaton Vorse has given her ders in “The Very Little Person.” -Each chapter of the, little volume stands out by itself and can be read separately. Those who have read some ‘of the chapters when they appeared in a leading woman's publication will enjoy going back to them. Those who will read them for the first time will find them very in- teresting. Writing about a baby in the way Mary Heaton Vorse does, is not an easy task. In the first place, a baby must be watched very cayefully, and very close-' ly, and studied patiently that its moods and actions as it grows may be accu- rately described., This the author has done very well, indeed. Then, too, the parents and very near relatives of the baby must be observed, for they natur- ally play an important part in the story is ‘very young. The parents an&® near relatives in this case are well described. The little volume is very appealing. It touches tender spots in the hearts of the readers who have gone through seme of the experiénce of the Gretrax- es, parents of the baby. After ail, some things are the common heritage of man- kind. The things described in this lit- tle book, belong to that class. Young —_—_————————— NEW PUBLICATIONS.
