Searles made an enormous profit, was told to the special Congressional Committee in- vestigating the trust today by Claus Augustus Spreckels. ‘The witness is president of the Federal Sugar Refining Co., of Yonk- ers, and is a son of the late Claus Spreckels cf California. ‘Spreckles said: ‘“‘The war started soon after the formation of the trust in 1887 and continued until 1891. It was very flerce.’’ “How did the end come?” “IT was manager of the Spreckles Re- finery in Philadelphia in 7901 when John % Searles, Secretary and Treasurer of American Sugar Refining Co., came us in Philadelphia and made a propo- sition to settle the war. He said the bitter competition had been ruinous and @ said that if wé‘would sell 51 per cent of the stock of the Philadelphia plant it -.would close its competing plant on the Pacific Coast. “I wired my father about it and after much parleyihg Searles went out to California to negotiate with my father The result was that the Western Refin- ing Co. was formed, embracing the American and Spreckles interest in a $5,000,000 corporation. The American took $2,225,000 in the capital stock and I delivered it to H. O. Havemeyer, Theo- dore A. Havemeyer and John E. Searles in New York. They told me they were the sh, ae and not the American. “They ?paid me half cash and half in short-tiine notes, which they later paid. Wanted to Limit Output. months later the Havemeyers and Searles, with my father, sold the total capital stock of the Western Company to the American for $19,000,000 in preferred stock. Of this my father received $5,000,000 and the Havemeyers and Searles got the same for their interest, for which they had paid my father $2,225,000. They also in the set- tlement of the war, acquired a 45 per cent interest in the $5, W0,000 Spreckels’ Philadelphia plant. “My quarrel with them started when they wanted to limit the output of the PhiladeIphia plant. Their idea was to reduce,the amount of production and thus force up the price. My plan was to increase the output and decrease the price.” Spreckels, after telling Havemeyer, Theodore A, Havemeyer and John KE. Searles had made enor- mous profits by selling the recently ac- quired Spreckela’ interests to the trust” of which they were officers, told how he was kept from purchasing Hawaiian sugar for his Yonkers refinery. : Stro in Hawaii. ‘The planters there have an asso- ciation,” he explained, “which mar- kets all their products, I have been unable to buy any of it, although I “Six how H.

Konle arrived from Chicago Friday night in custody of Special Officer Ben Heckel. He is charged with having stolen $185 from the J. FE. Kaime Real Estate Co., of 711 Chestnut street, and $200 from the Harris Shirt Co., of 411 North Broadway, by whom he was em- pioyed to audit books. As he wept in his cell at police head- quarters Saturday morning, he told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he not only had taken these sums, but also had stolen $700 from the Kaime company. No complaint of this loss has been made to the police In a saloon on Twelfth street early iw June, Konle met two men who imme- diately struck up an acquaintance with him and introduced him to others, in- cluding the dashing blonde. They told him he was a ‘“‘good fellow,”’ he says, and invited him to go on a fish- ing trip, which he agreed to do. “Bring a lot of money,’’ he savs one of the men told him, “because we want to make a flash before some pretty women who will be there.” “Before starting on that trip,” said Konle, “I took $78 from the Kaime company's safe. I intended to spend the $8 and tell the company I lost it. With the $700 I planned to ‘make a flash.’ Then I thought I could replace the money in the safe and repay the $8 later. i “We went to Long Island, Ill, June 24, and took out boats.

He said he had seen the crowd dividing the money. \ “T was desperate because of the loss of the money and looked everywhere for mr supposed friends. At last I met one of the men in an East St. Louls saloon. He told me to go to a certain St. Louis saloon the next day and the other men would be there to restore the monev. I went, but they only laughed at meé when I inquired for my ‘friends.’ ” At this point Konle was overcome and his narrative was stopped by his sobs. “And then,” he said, ‘I went and robbed Harris, my best friend. I went to Chicago and lived as George W. Beck until I was arrested. “I am going to plead guilty and make the best of the situation. The one thing [ dread most is having my wife and children see me behind the bars.”’ Konle was arrested at the general de- livery window of the Chicago Postoffice when he appeared ta,get a decoy letter sent by Heckel. In the letter Heckel had represented himself as a friend and offered to help Konle. When he went to Chicago to get Konle, Heckel said he was “Officer Williams.” “T have one friend in St. Louis,’’ said Konle on the train. “His name is Heck- el. I got letters from him and he is going to help me.” Heckel then revealed his identity.

Artist Calls Third Wife Dearest of Them All. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 22.—Comes now Mrs. Ferdinand Pinney Earle, third to mite to a world-famous colléction of af- finities. Word from the artist, who is in is to the effect that he has married an English woman, daughter of a con- gland. The only additional information is Ferdinand Pinney’s assurance that she is the “dearest, sweetest loveliest of them all,.”’ and her name is Dora. k’'rom.the meager details which the im- passioned bridegroom has vouchsafed to his intimates, it is gathered that his latest matrimonial episode, like the two others, was a case of love at first sight. In fact, Ferdinand himself admits as much, They met, loved and were mar- ried all in as short a space of time as the law allows. Earle and his mother, widow of Gen. Ferdinand P. Earle, left these shores last March. Mrs. Earle No. 2, who was Miss Julia Kuttner, had managed to ob- tain a@ decree annulling her marriage 3ust after Christmas, and the artist dis- creetly waited till the decree had be- come final on the lapse of 90 days before venturing in fresh fields and pastures. There was good reason for this, as Mrs. Kuttner-Earle got her annullment just because he had not waited long enough to satisfy the legal conscience after his first wife, a French woman, got her di- vorce, little Time Wasted, The legal quibbles having been proper- ly put t6 rest on the second occasion, Fiarle settled down in London, first making sure that the loose meshes of his affinity net had been made secure. But nothing came within reach that seemed worthy of capture. Presently Earle wandered a little more afield. Windsor Forest and its purlieus seemed to offer promising sport and one day as he wandered over the Hind- head, a glorious grassy knoll in Surrey, he met HER. There was no doubt about it. The beautiful Dora, with her laughing brown eves and wealth of auburn hair, was surely intended for him, and he for her. Their souls met as he had told the friends to whom he_has intrusted the great secret, when they first glanced into each other’s eyes. Prolonged courtships are not pleasing 1o Mr. Barle. in him so restlessly that what {s to be done must be done forthwith, and it was an added bliss to find that Dora felt just that way, too. Introductions and explanations to Miss Dora’s parents followed as quickly as might be, a spe- cial license was procured, and there was a third Mrs. Ferdinand Pinney Earle. Where to spend the honeymoon was a question speedily answered. Where but in a quaint old English inn on the Hindhead? A week or two there, then off for a world-round tour. She Understood. tion—in fact she was delighted with anything that Ferdy proposed. She had heard the story of his lost loves, of the two previous vows to Hymen and, may- hap, something of that Gertrude Dunn episode. And she understood perfectly just how harshly Cupid had treated him and how his motives had been misinter- preted by a cruel public and a heart- less press. The wedding took place toward the end of June, and about the first of July they left Hindhead to visit Holland. From Amsterdam they journeyed to Haarlem, to see the famous Franz Hals paintings—a treat Mr. Earle had been promising himself for a long time. Mrs. Earle paints too, a little, and she thinks her husband’s impressionistic work (he was a student of Whistler), is simply wonderful. They sketched bits of Hol- land as they made their way by a devi- ous route to Antwerp, and there they took the steanfer for up the Rhine. Cologne and its cathedral is engaging their attention now, and Earle vows and declares he would not give up one little bit of Cologne for all of Holland. Be- sides, the beer is fine at Cologne, as he freely acknowledges, and Ferdinand knows good beer. Home in 1912, The 3 will leave Cologne in a few days, to wander through fwitzerland, on their way to the Italian lakes. From Italy through the Mediterranean to Cairo, then, by slow stages, to Bom- bay and the East, then to San Fran- cisco and nome. It will be the end of 1912 before all the program has been completed. _It came as quite a shock to some of Earle’s friends to get the news today, and. none felt it more severely than his brother, Victoy de la Montaigne ST.

' Heavy rains are falling over many; of the “dry” strongholds in the north- ern portion of the State and fair weather is prevailing in the “wet” country farther south. In spite of the bad weather in many towns and eities in the north portion, however, a rec- ord-breaking vote is* being polled in that section.

At Lockhart, in the central portion of the State, Richard Bragg, a negro, was shot and seriously wounded early today after’returning from a political rally for negroes. One election row was reported early from Faris, in North Texas, wherrn two prominent men of opposing faith turned their umbrellas into weapons and painfully injured each ‘other's heads. In many places women and chil. dren have. projected.their influence into the campaign in the last 24 hours by marching, singing and serving Junches. At Fort Worth about 2000 women have undertaken an all-day fast today for the success of prohibition. In a statement issued today, J. W. Wolters, chairman of the Anti-State- Wide Prohibition Organization, claims that the pending amendment to the Con- stitution will defeated by not less than 70,000. Chairman T. HH. Ball of the State Prohibition organization estimates that the Prohibitionists will carry therState by not less than 5,000 votes. Hall claims that of the 100,000 Republican votes In’ Texas, 75,900 will be cast for prohibition. He also places in the pro- hibition column practically all of the men who voted for local option in the different counties where such elections have been held. Wolters makes no estimate of how the Republican vote .is going, but claims that many thousand local op- tionists will support the anti side of the amendment question.

~—-TEASKED COUSIN TQ BUY SHOTGUN Held for Murder of Young Wife, .Banker’s Son, in Telegram to Father, Says} Statement That Relative Procured Weapon for Him Is Absolutely Untrue. WOMAN TELLS OF HUSBAND’S VISITS Girl on Stand Says He Visited Her Frequently and Was With Her Night Before the Fatal Auto Trip When Mrs. Beattie Was Killed. Special to the Post-Dispatch. RICHMOND, Va., July 22.—Held for the murder of his young wife, who was shot while riding with him in an auto- mobile, Henry C. Beattie Jr., this morn- ing deriounced as untrue a statement made by a cousin, Paul D. Beattie, also under arrest. In this statement, read at the Coro- ner’s inquest today, Paul said that he bought a shotgun at a pawashop at his cousin’s request last Saturday, three days before the murder. He took the weapon to Henry, who was waiting for him in his motorear, he said, and his inquiry as to what was wanted with the weapon was unanswered. As soon as he learned of this state- ment, Henry sent a telegram to his father in which he declared it absolute- ly untrue. H. C. Beattie Jr. is the son of a bank- er and 23 years of age. Paul is 21 and ekes out a living as a street car con- ductor. They move in different spheres of society and have never been inti- mate. Cousin Breaks Down. A report is in circulation that H. C. Beattie Jr. hired his cousin for $1000 to fire the fatal shot. Paul Beattie is said to have attempted to end his life when taken into custody. At any rate, he has had hemorrhages, and despite med- ical treatment, is in a critical condition and cannot be seen, even if the officials were willing that he should be inter- viewed. He is said to be almost a nervous wreck. After the.examination of Henry C. ‘Beattie Jr.. Miss Beulah Binford, the “other woman in the case,’’ went on the stand and testified that she was with the murdered woman’s husband on Mon- day night, stating that he had often spent the night in her home, and that there was a child. She told in detail of Beattie’s friendship with her during the last several years and since he had been married. rR. L. Sydnor and his son, who live near the scene of the murder on Mid- lothian turnpike, will testify that about twilight or later on the evening of the murder they saw an automobile very much resembling Beattie’s approach the scene of the crime. The occupant of the car went a short distance past the scene, got out and pretended to be fixing a tire. It is thought that this ig when the gun was hidden along’ the roadside. Drove Hastily Away. . Mr. Sydnor and his son said they could not identify the man, but where attract- ed by his suspicious actions while they were near him, at which time he jumped into the car and drove toward the city and away from them.

He advised her not to do so but she wrote him later that she wa: coming, and he wrote and begged her to stay away.

There must be one of two reasons for this: Either the refineries receive a rebate from the railroads or they insist that the sugar be removed from the vicinity of the refineries. “That is, a speculator might buy Sugar for Kansas City, but keep it in Storage in California and thus be able to cut the refineries’ price.” Spreckles added that the lighterage company owned by the H. O. Have- meyer estate and operating in New York overcharged the American Su‘ar Refining Co. for its services. “The same company doe: my lighter- age,’ he said, “for less money than it charges the American Sugar Refining Co.” : Spreckles said also that in his opinion the ren.oval or big reduction of the tariff on sugar would decrease the price of refined sugar in this country ~ cents a pound Best for Planters, “It would also be the best thing for Louisiana,” he said. The planters down there are antiquated, use ancient meth- ods and machinery and are not scien- tific farmers. The reduction in the tariff would wake them up and modernize them as it did Hawaii.’”’ Spreckels said that the refineries and planters of both beet and cane Sugar in this country could compete with the world without a tariff; that without a tariff the production of sugar would be vastly increased, that the jam and jelly industry could. be taken away from England and the chocolate production of this country could be vastly in- creased. “Beet sugar can be made for less than three cents a pound and if you go down to the American Sugar Refining Co. offices I think they will find the records of the Beet sugar companies which will show the cost of beet sugar production.”’ The committee was on the point of issuing a subpoena for these papers when the company’s attorney promised to produce the records. ONE MORE DEATH MAKES NEW YORK CHOLERA TOTAL Boy Dies Soon After Ship From Naples Goes Into Quarantine.

By Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 2?.—Cholera claimed another victim today among the patients in the hespital at Swin- bourne Island in the lower bay. The death of Demetric Anagoston, aged 17, reported there, makes the total deaths in quarantine nine. The boy was a steerage passenger on the steamer Moltke from Naples. No new cases of cholera were reported among the other immigrants undergoing examination at Hoffman Island. The steamer Roma was released from quarantine today. Nineteen members of the crew and 19 steerage passengers of the Moltke who had been among those detained at Hoffman Island for observation were sent to the regular immigrant receiving station at Ellis Island. The iook for an heelth officers }easier task in the future, owing to the fact that most of the steamers from the Mediterranean will not take passengers from Naples and Palermo while the cholera epidemic lasts there. A report that the investigation of Health Officer Doty’s administration had been suspended on orders from Gov, Dix to save the local Health Department from interference dur- ing the present stress, was denied today by the commissioners in charge. The investigation will con- tinue next week; but will be arranged so that none of Dr. Doty’s assistants will be called away from their duties at the quarantine station. Bathing has been forbidden on Staten Island beaches because of the cholera epidemic at quarantine.

‘LOBBYING FOR: LORIMER VOTES Tells Committee He Saw Sena- tors Before Ballot Was Taken After Last Inquiry. HE ALSO CALLED ON GARY Declares That Visit to Him Had Nothing to Do With the Lobby. eae,

WASHINGTON, July 22.—The activi- ties of Edward Hines whose name: has been linked with the election of Senator Lorimer to influence the vote of the Senate last spring on unseating the II- linois Senator were inquired into today by the Senate Lorimer Committee. Hines was on the stand again, and testified that he called on President W. C Brown of the New York Central dur- ing the Lorimer fight in the Senate. Hines was asked if he was seeking to influence the vote of Senator Depew. He answered in the negative. Hines did say that he spent a month in Washington just preceding the vote on tHe Lorimer’ case seeing Senators, inducing others to see them and writing letters to some of his friends “to tell the facts to their Senators.’’ The committee was In session only an hour and then adjourned until Monday in order to attend today's reciprocity session of the Senate. - Carl R. Nelson, private stenographer to Hines, testifiedgthat the latter was continually in Washington in February, 1909, except for occasional trips to New York. The object of this was to show that Hires was not in Chicago during the latter part of February, when Clarence S. Funk said Hines called upon him about the famous Union League Club conversation. Funk said Hines asked him to contribute to a Lorimer election fund, but Hines said Funk offered to contribute. : : Hines testified today about a _ pro- posal to him to purchase Wirt H. Cook’s stock in the Virginia & Rainy Lake Lumber Co. Cook has testified that Hines, over the telephone, said he would go to Springfield on the day Lorimer was elected, ‘‘with all the money neces- sary.’’ “It would have taken about $3300,(AC to purchase Cook’s stock and as I had received a letter from him which I fig- ured was in the nature of blackmail I decided not to buy the stock,’’ declared Hines. ‘“‘He claimed he would make some exposures unless I purchased his stock.”’ On a trip to New York in February, 1911, Hines said he called on W. C. Brown, president of the New York Cen- tral. On another trip he called on E. H. Gary of the United States Steel] Corpora- tion. _He protested against being com- pelled to give these names ‘because some of the newspapers might say they had something to do with this Lorimer business,”’ Hines declined to with President Brown ‘‘because Mr. Brown might object.’’ He said, how- ever, that Lorimer’s name was men- tioned, although Hines did not intend to discuss Lorimer when: he went to call, he said. ‘Mr. Brown said he had Known Sen- ator Lorimer for 20 years and had the highest regard for him,’’ declared Hines. “Did you ask President Brown to speak td Senator Depew about Lor- imer?’’ inquired Senator Kenyon. “No sir; nor to Senator Root. Inas- much as President Brown had spoken so highly of Senator Lorimer I told him it might be well to put that out. I didn’t say so to any Senators; I had people in general in mind.”’ CHARLES D. McLURE SUES REALTY FIRM Alleges Anderson-Stocke-Buer- mann Co. Is Holding $3398 of Proceeds of Home Sale. Charles D.. McLure filed suit Saturday against the Anderson-Stocke-Buerman Realty Co. for $3398.69, which he alleges to be due him out of the proceeds of the sale of his house at 3671 Lindell boulevard. The petition recites that McLure em- ployed the real estate firm in June to sell the residence. The house was sold to F. H. Britton for $37,616.10. McLure alleges that he instructed the agents to pay all incumbrances on the property and the expense of the sale out of the proceeds. These items amounted, he alleges, to- $33,371,91, leaving $3398.69 due him. He says he has made a de- mand upon the company for this sum, but it refuses to turn it over to him. Charlies H. Anderson, president of the company, told a Post-Dispatecn reporter that McLure did not delive* possession of the property until Fri- day, and that the company then turned over to him the balance due on the deal, with the exception of $3250, which represented a commission Mc- Lure agreed to pay for the sale last December of a piece of property at 415 North Broa@way. ‘The Broadway deal involved $130.- 000,” said Anderson. “Our attornev advised us to take our commissions on that sale out of the proceeds of the sale of McLure’s house, and we did so. If the court decides that we have no right to the commission for the Broadway sale, we will deliver the money to McLure.” his conversation

Maximum Amount on First Con- viction Is a Penalty of $200. Officers of practically all the St, Louis business houses against’ which suits were filed Friday by the Gov- ernment inspectors for alleged viola- tions of the pure food laws expresseJ their intention Saturday of resisting the Government’s action. _The suits were brought against 10 firms, and each was for $200, the max-

imum amount allowed by law for the first offense. Most of the charges were of misbranding food producta shipped in interstate commerce. The Blanke Tea and Coffee Co. was one of the firms mentioned, the action being based on the brand “‘Mojav,” the Government alleging that this mark rep- resents that the product is a mixture of Mocha and Java coffee and that these coffees are not used, President C. F. Blanke sald to a Post-Dispatch reporter Saturday: Blanke Expleins. “This suit is absolutely without foun- dation, as we have been using this mark for 20 years and it is simply a trade mark and was never intended to mean what they claim it does. It, distinctly Says on the package, ‘This coffee is a blend of geod drinking coffee,’ and that is just what it is. ‘‘We have been working hand and foot with the inspectors, because we heartily indorse the pure food laws. But when we have asked them to approve some label that we thought of using they have always refused, saying that they were not appointed in an advisory capacity, but merely to prosecute. “The inspectors who held the positions before the present incumbents took this matter up once before and also our mark ‘Kafaka,’ which we use on a substitute for coffee. All of their chemists told them on examination that there was coffee in the product, but when we as- sured them that there was not a grain they immediately dropped the matter. We will fight them to a standstill on this present suit, if they attempt to push it.’’ Was a Mistake. Edward Westen of the Westen Tea and Spice Co. said: ‘“‘The Government suit against us is for misbranding a package ‘pure rice’ which did no con- tain pure rice, but a composition of glucose and tale. This is ignorance on the part of the inspectors and an acci- dent on our part. “Several months ago it was custo- mary, before putting in the original peckage, to coat all rice with glucose and paraffine to preserve it and make it look better. All packages were Stamped ‘Wash before using, coated with paraffine.’ It was on. of these packages on which the stamp had been accidentally omitted on which they base their suit.’ Albert Maull, president of Maul] Bros., said “I can not make out whether these inspectors are asleep at the switch or just what they are trying to do. Their suit alleges that we make a macaroni which we style ‘Neapolitan Macaroni, Mezzani Napoli’ thus trying to make it appear as if it were made in Italy. We only sell one brand and that is the ‘Faust’ brand. These gentlemen have quietly slipped into the wrong pew.” Scales Rusty. At the St. Louis Syrup and Preserving Co. it was stated the suit was based on the alleged misbranding of a package of “‘Clymer’s Brand Apple Butter.’’ The inspectors said that it was marked 16 cunces and did not contain that amount. M. G. Clymer said: “These pure food sleut!- evidently hed rusty scales as well as eye trouble. For two years our packages have been marked 14 ounces when they really con- tain 15 or 16 just to be on the safe side. They may possibly however have run across an old package from’ several years ago when théy were marked 16 ounces,”’ At the Katharmon Chemical Co, Dr. Cc. FE. Casper, the company’s chemist, said: “This suit with regard to the make-up of cod-liver oil, which we use for different purposes, is without any sort of foundation. I went to Washington before Dr. Wiley, chief of the Bureau of Chemistry, several months ago, and we talked this mat- ter over, and as far as I know every. thing was settled ‘satisfactorily a; that time.” S. H. Thomson, treasurer of the Provident Chemical Co., said: “The inspectors allege that our product, known as ‘Clariphor,’ a preparation for clarifying sugar, is adultera‘ej with hydroflueric acid and arsenite. We absolutely do not put these sub- stances in, and if they found any traces in the samples which they toox last fall, it was merely in such quan- tities as are found in almost any products when there naturally. tf they took all the arsenic ina carload of our product it would not be enough to hurt anybody.” At the Tip Top Bottling Works Ww3}- liam F. Schroeder, president, said: ‘We have not been notified of any such suit. We get apple jelly made from apple juice shipped to us by a Chicago firm and merely thin this down. A man came from Washington last year and inspected our entire plant and at that time absolutely nothing wrong was found. We were giad to have the in- spection and everything was reported to be all right. & Persons Killéd at Bull Fight.

President Taft has had the general support of the Democrats and of the Repubsican regulars. And in this union of forces he has had enough sup- port so that the bill has never been in danger of defeat or serious amendment since the segsion began. . Canadian reciprocity in its present form is the outgrowth of the confer- ences with Dominion representatives over the settlement of the maximum and minimun®# rates of the Payne-Aldrich law of 1909. : President Taft, W. S Fielding, Minis- ter of Finance of Canada, and William Patterson, Minister of Customs, met ata tormal conference at Albany, N. Y., March 10 for the first discussion of the subject. Open negotiations began in No- vember, when Henry M. Hoyt, and Charles M. Pepper of the State Depart- ment wert to Ottawa to confer with Canadian Government officials. In January Ministers Fielding and Patterson came to Washington to com- plete the work. From Jan. 8 to Jan. 21 these Canadian representatives, closet- ed with Secretary of State Knox and other officials in Washington, threshed out the provisions of the reciprocity agreement which was later submitted Parliament of Canada and the Congress of the United States. The agreement, backed by an Official message of endorsement from President Taft, went to the House of Represen- tatives Jan. 26. From that time up to the present it held the center of the stage in American politica: discussions and has caused party dissensions in this country and in Canada, and has developed tariff discussions upon new and novel lines.

Y FRENCH mINATST WOUNDS CRITIC IN DUEL WITH SWORDS Henry Bernstein and Leon Dau- det Exchange Shots and Then Resort to Rapiers. VICTOR IS LONG AVOIDED Had Been Denied Right of Com- bat Until Committee Passed Upon His Eligibility.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch an d New York World. by Press a yee York World PARIS auly 22.—Heury “‘wiedabela, the dramatist, and Leon Daudet, a newspaper critic, fought a duel in the suburbs lace Friday afternoon. it was uncommonly ferocious, both pis- tols and swords being used. Daudet received a deep wouna in the right biceps which forced him to ask that the duel be stopped, as he must ac- knowledge himself in a state of in- feriority. Four balls were exchanged without results at the opening of the duel, This was not to the liking of the fiery antagonists, so swords were substituted for pistols and the com- bat was renewed. Daudet was dis- armed in the first round and had to change swords three times. In the third round he received the wound that brought the duel to a close, Bernstein has a long score to settle with the Paris critics, and his victory over Daudet, following a still easier one over Tery, no doubt will embold en him to seek satisfaction in several quarters. He has said that the crit- ics are “after’’ him because of their severe criticisms of his plays. some of which have been quite successful in the United States. He held them directly responsible for the disturb- ances at the Comedie Francaise last winter, which ended only when he had been forced to withdraw his plays. 19t1. Co. New First Avoided Him. At that time Bernstein tried to fight seme of the men he considered responsi- | tle for this treatment, notably Leon Daudet. He is the son of the widely known author and is the editor of a mil- itant Catholic royalist newspaper, the offices of which have been the scene of riots several times. But Daudet and the others refused to fight Bernstein on the ground that he had once desert- ec from the French army and after- ward had been exiled, also that he had earlier in life refused to fight a duel on the plea that he was opposed to the practice. This, the critics held, for- ever barred him from the privilege of challenging a gentleman of France. This did not seriously annoy Bern- stein: instead he awaited his opportuni- ty to answer his enemies. It came this week. Bernstein sent a highly provoca- tive letter to Gustave Tery, a well- known writer. The ancient question of HRernstein’s eligibility to stand on the field of honor was promptly submitted to a court of arbitrators, among whom were Admiral de Janquiers, Duke de Cazes and Paul Herv.eu. Said He Could Fight. These men in their different spheres are among the most distinguished men of France. They held that as Bern- stein had publicly expressed regret for his desertion from the army, as a piece of youthful anti-military folly and had gurrendered to the authorities, making full apology in doing so, and as he had fince fought no less that five duels, he ria « Was entirely qualified to demand and re- ‘ceive satisfaction with arme. Tery and Bernstein met at 25 paces and exchanged one shot each in the usual Paris duel fashion. Neither was injured and they left the field, but without becoming reconciled. Bernstelia has the reputation of being an excellent shot, but the nearest he came to his adversary on this occasion was to al- most wing @ newspaper photographer. Tery’s bullet struck the ground back of Bernstein, thereupon took deliberate aim with the almost disastrous re- sults to the hard-working picture man. The duel with Dgudet was regarded as tntended to be a much more seri- ous affair, us the conditions were se- vere. The shots were exchanged at cniy 25 paces, and a fight with ewords was to be continued until one of the pair admitted to his state of inferi- ority. These conditions were imposed by Bernstein, who had long desired to be ) avenged for articles in Daudet’s pa- i per.

A picturesquely impressive perform- ance of Greek drama is now being ar- ranged for the benefit of the Post-Dis- patch Pure Milk and. Free Ice Fund, this classic entertainment being of 4 character so rare in its beauty and ar- tistic simplicity as to constitute a pres- ent-day novelty of the utmost distinc- tion, The benefit will be under the mangae- ment of Mr. J. P. Theodoropoulos, a Greek gentleman of culture who is now ® resident of St. Louis and who has a Stage experience that guarantees the most competent direction of the affair. _ Last summer Mr, Theodoropoulos gave a somewhat similar entertainment for the benefit of the Pure Milk Fund, not only scoring a pleasing financial suc- cess for the fund, but so greatly de- lighting a St. Louis audience as to in- sure a biggger attendance at this sum- mer’s venture in the same field. The poetic Greek drama entitled “Ga- jatea,”’ and telling the same appealirg story @s the favorite old English play. “Fygmalion and Galatea,’’ based on the sarne legend of ancient Greece, has been selecte@ by Mr. Theodoropoulos as this season's offering of the Greek company which has been organized under his direction. The performance will be in the Greek tongue, the costumes wiil be absolutely faithful to the play’s pe- riod of many centuries ago, and the scenic settings will be in effect a series of majestic stage paintings of memor- able beauty. + The Greek play of ‘“‘Galatea’’ is by S N. Basiliades, a famous dramatist of modern Greece, and it will be pre- sented by a company of talented players selected by Mr. Theodaoropoulos, who himself will direct the rehearsals and stage the production. Early announce- ment will be made of the St. Louis theater at which this distinguished pro- duction will be made, and of the date when it is to be given, probably early in August. In the forget meantime, don’t that the famous Yellow Jacket Mia- strel Troupe will appear this evening on the lawn of Mr. John Gorman’s home, 2714 North Spring avenue, in a big minstrel and vaudeville entertain- ment for the benefit of the Post-Dis- past Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund. You need not be apprehensive of wit- nessing a crude performance if you at- tend this entertainment. The Yellow Jacket Minstrels are a company of talented young St. Louisans who have already proved themselves capable of work that will bear comparison with professional achievement. This will be their fourth annual entertainment, and they have invariably scored a big suc- cess. Last summer they gave a bene- fit performance that realized $96.72 for the Pure Milk Fund, and they are de- termined to break this splendid record with tonight’s performance. Those taking part are Ruth Gulick, Iawrence Devoy, Frank Tracy, Sylves- ter Cassidy, Eugene Gorman, Mary Mc- Gill, Pearl Greer, Eunice Wissler, Elma E. Butler, Genevieve Patrice, Jeannette and Marie McGlynn, Margaret, Cather- ine, Helen and Frances Duffy, Peter Quirn, Francis McGill, Will Dunn, Al- fred Heckert and Julien McGlynn. There will be reserved seats and refreshments will be on sale. The price of admission is 10 cents for acults and 5 cents for children. In the event of rain, the benefit performance will be postponed until next Monday évening. The entire proceeds will ‘be donated to the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund. Save the Babies!

GAME WARDEN IS AFTER BOY HUNTERS St. Louis Lads Who Go Shooting Illegally Will Be Prosecuted Under State Laws. St. Louis boys who have the instinct of the hunter must look out for the game warden. Through the police of the various districts, he is after all boys who go shooting illegally and will prosecute them under the game laws m case of arrest. The minimum fine for conviction ia $25. Leon Klink, 14 years old, of 3664 Wyo- ming street, is the most recent victim of this police vigilance. He was ar- rested by police from the Magnolia Ave- nue Station on a charge of having vio- lated the game laws of Missouri. The police say Leon admitted killing three robins with a cat rifle Friday after- noon. Another bey who had shot a quail and a woodpecker was arrested seyeral days ago for discharging firearms with- in the city limits, but the police did not try to obtain a warrant for violation of the game laws.

would not be back till Monday. To a friend he said that he had “received very bad news through the mails.” Ferdinand Pinney Earle’s first ven- ture in the matrimonial sea netted him Miss Emilie Fischbacher, daughter of a book seller in Paris. Earle met Miss Fischbacher, a pretty blonde still in her teens, in the train journeying from Vienna to Paris. He visited her in the French capital, and soon they were wedded. Always at First Sight. That was in, 1903, when Earle was 27 years old. A son, Harold, was the re- sult of the union. But in 1906 Earle met and was charmed by Miss Julia Kuttner, as they crossed the Atlantic cn the same steamer. Miss Kuttner was cuite unlike Mrs. Earle in every way, but Earle let it be known very shortly that he had decided to discard his wife, and live with Miss Kuttner, whom he described as his_ soul- mate, and whom other people have since heard described.as his ‘“‘affin- 3 fe Mrs. Earle took the situation with much grace, and set sail for France with her boy as soon as she had ef- fected a satisfactory money settlement with the artist. She declared that she would not stand in the way of her hus- band’s happiness, if that could only be obtained through his association with Miss Kuttner, and announced that she would“take steps to get .a divorce in France, so that Ferdinand and Julie could be wed. When the news of this casting aside of his wife and child reached the lit» tle village of Monroe, the inhabitants determined to give Earle a warm recep- tion as soon as he arrived with Julla. They did, but with the help of some deputy sheriffs the artist made his way to his castle, which he calls ‘‘Semmer- ing,’’ and once there defied public opin- ion. Choked His Soul-Mate. Mrs. Earle got her divorce in France in April, 1908, without opposition, and then Earle, who had gone on a trip to Italy with Miss Kuttner, married his affinity there. A boy was born of that union also, but when they returned, real. ly man and wife, Mrs. Earle No. 2 began to show signs of tiring of the married state. Her boredom was intensified by an episode which occurred just three weeks after the baby Was born, in August, 1908, when Earle, as he subse- quently admitted in court, choked her during a quarrel. A separation was followed by a re- conciliation and Earle, speaking of his Julie, compared their love affair to that of Tristan and Isolde. But Julia broke away from the thralldom again, and in the spring of 1909 began suit for an annulment on the ground that Earle had not been legally free when he mar- ried her. It was not until December last that the action was finally determined in her favor, after several judges had disagreed on the Jaw in the case. The technical- ity that finally gave her freedom was that the Italian laws, under which she was married, forbid a divorced person remarrying till nine months have elapsed

ANOTHER CAMORRA TRIAL PROBABLE Defendants’ Attorneys Insulted Stays Away, and an Adjourn- ment Is Ordered. PRISONERS PROTEST IN

Declare Law’s Delays Have Al- ready Made Them Suffer Five Years’ Tortures.

By Associated Press, VITERBO, Italy, July 22.—The lawyers for the defense have struck and as a consequence the Camorrists’ trial was adjourned today until next Wednesday to afford time in which to decide on their future attitude. Unless some agree- ment is reached with the Court and the prosecution before the sessions are re- sumed, it is probable that the trial will be definitely stopped and later begun all over again. The trouble began yesterday, when Capt. Fabroni, one of the crown’s best witnesses, in defending himself and his associates of the carabineers, denounced Lawyer Lioy as a suborner of perjury, and Lioy replied in an undignified man- ner. Lawyer Offended. ’ During the exchange all of the other lawyers left the courtroom and later sent a message to President Bianchi say- ing that they could not with dignity return to the Court if they were not assured of protection. At the same time they sald they were taking steps to persuade the offending lawyer to withdraw from the case. When court opened today only four of the attorneys were present and they came to lay the case of the de- fense before the court. They asked the President to postpone the trial to Wednesday, saying they wished in the meantime to consult with their col- leagues in Naples and Rome regard- ing what action they should take. They said they would insist on pro- tection’ from what they called the provocations of the carabineers and intimated that in exchange for this protection they would bring about the withdrawal of Lioy from the defenge, Accused Oppose Delay. The accused, with the exception of Bartolozzi, who fell in a fit during the hubbub yesterday, were present and objected to the proposed iday. Ciro Vitozzi, the priest, weeping, said: “The protraction of this agony {$s killing us.” : When the postponement gas grant- ed the prisoners left tne Bawa, pro- testing that between the uncompro- mising attitude of the lawyers on the one hand and the red tape of court procedure on the other, they had al- ready suffered five years’ imprison- ment.

eee B 4 LAWYERS STRIKE ‘is KONAPNG BRINGS ANEMPTY VICTORY TO MAYOR Adjournment Resolution Likely to Be Invalidated by a Clerical Error. DELEGATE LURED AWAY City Committeeman’s Motor Car Broke Down at Precisely the Right Moment. The heroic methods employed by the Kreismann faction of the House of Delegates to force through Friday night a resolution of adjournment for _the summer vacation brought an empty- handed victory. It was discovered Saturday that the administration faction, In its eagerness to adjourn, made the resolution read Tuesday, July 2. As Tuesday will be July 26, the Kiel delegates contend that — the clerical error in the resolution in- validates it. Assistant Clerk Corbett corrected the error before he sent the resolution to the printer, but Delegates Lahiv and other Kiel leaders insisted that the resolution would have to stand as it was passed. The error in the resolution gave the Kiel men new courage and they went out to marshall their forces for another fight against adjournment next Tues- day. The administration faction got tem- porary control of the House Friday night by kidnapping Delegate Klose of the First Ward, Klose ts a Kiel man. He was induced to visit the saloon of Justice George W. Reichmann at 2 p. m. Friday. Reichmann is committeeman from the Third Ward, and a supaertes of the Mayor. After refreshing Klose with such liquids as Justice Reichmann had at his disposal, a trip to Sunset Inn in the county was suggested. As soon as the automobile was beyond the city limits it developed carburetor troubles, which the chauffeur declared he could not fix. It was 9:30 p. m. when Klose was brought back to town, and the House had then adjourned, Delegate Becker voted with the ad- ministration faction, giving it control by 14 to 13. Action on the hospital bill was deferred, Finding itself in control, the Kreismann faction pressed through the adjournment resolution.

WHERE ENOX FELL DOWN. It is to be feared that Mr. Knox eases up in his diplomatic vigilance in midsummer to an extent that must in time prejudice his popularity, if any. Unustally prompt in his protection of American interests heretofore, and at times seeming to have a prophetic sense of where trouble would pop off next, he has been caught peacefully napping by the attack upon Cape Haitien, and Americans accustomed for some time now to crying “Knox! Knox!” have had to resort to “Help! Help!” “Help! Help!” in this case, fortunately, was there in the presence of Commodore Evans R. Dick, who took the American colony off in his private yacht. “Knox! Knox” was nowhere about. Dip- lomatically there only the day before with the gunboat Petrel, he was no more protection when the crisis came than if he had been hurrying thither those celebrated three men of Gotham who went to sea in a tub. This 1s not like Mr. Knox. His record in the Mexican revolution was that of a hair-trigger and far-seeing protector un- commonly handy and quick with his ships, and he has ordinarily anticipated anything but an earthquake. Inconsistency of this sort will never do in the world. The American colonist wfll have to know whether it {is te be “Knox! Knox!! or “Help! Help!” The uncertainty is a good deal worse >. — oa | a

ST. LOUIS’ GAS RECORD. The Chicago City Council having passed an ordinance reducing the price of gas from 85 cents to a rate that will average 701-5 cents during the next five years, a Post-Dispatch reader indig- nantly exclaims: ; “St. Louis has the goods—but Chicago has the cheap gas, St. Louis is as backward as if it were situated in Arkansas. Otherwise we might be getting gas at 75 cents down to 68 cents in five years.” ‘The writer of this comment has failed to fo'low the history of the gas industry in this city. St. Louis compares favorably with Chicago and other large cities, and has not been sleeping in regard to its interests as far as gas is concerned. Under the leadership of the Post-Dispatch the fight for cheaper gas has been carried on for several vears, with the result that at this time only two of the other large cities—Indianapolis and Cleveland— have cheaper rates than St. Louis. During the years 1908, 1909 and 1910, a determined effort was made to bring about competition by the Intro- duction of natural gas, to be piped from Oklahoma or Texas.

PUBLICITY WILL DO. The chief objection to Senator Reed's plan to make the corrupt or extravagant use of money to win an election a felony is that he can't get it on the statute book. Perhaps it should be placed there but is it really necessary? The purpose of every law providing publicity for campaign contributions and election expenditures is to give the people exact information of the methods in use to the end that they may vote discriminatingly and intelligently. In the safe possession of that information the people may do as they please. While it is true that men have been elected in the face of all but positive in- formation of the corrupt use of money, we are not yet disposed to pronounce democratic gov- ernment a fatiure, or surrender faith in the pop- ular love of decency, virtue and righteousness. No exception can be taken to Mr. Reed’s state- ment that the mere use of vast sums of money to secure a seat in Congress is not in itself suffi- cient to bar holding the seat. At least there is nc precedent for such an assumption. But ff the people of Wisconsin had had positive informa- tion that Stephenson had bought the support of the Game Warden's department for $50,000 cash, Stephenson would never have been sent to the Senate. If the people of Illinois had known there was $100,000 in the jackpot to “put Lorimer over,” Lorimer would never have been put over. If the people of Colorado had known of Guggen- heim’s payment of $50,000 for the support of 12 legislators, the Smelter Trust would now have no representative in the Senate. In each case the use of money was immoral enough to be made a felony, but is that neces- sary? We have never yet tried effective publicity. The people have never had the benefit of accurate information before election. If they desire to elect a man in the face of positive knowledge that he is spending large sums of money, who {s privi- leged to object? No government can be better than its people and every government is just as good as its people make it, provided there js no fraud or deception. If we make provision against fraud and deception, theoretically, at least, noth- ing more is necessary. The people will have an opportunity to declare themselves fairly, and until they show a disposition to elect thieves and crooks, in the knowledge that they are thieves and crooks, we may withhold judgment. = = a a Senator Penrose hopes to present the reciprocity bill for the President’s signature before he leaves Washington today. We have known all the time that if the President didn’t sign the measure just before leaving, it would be immediately after he got back.

; WASTE OF FERTILIZER. Waste of food is bad enough. The news that nearly half a million spoiled eggs are to be dumped {nto the Mississippi means that a large quantity of the most highly concentrated fertil- izer is to be thrown away. And this is being done again and again. On the one hand, we have the State Agricultural Department, doing all it can to teach the farmer conservation of the oil’s resources. And on the other hand we have the State and Federal food inspectors wasting tons of costly soil food. The farmers of the State might well look into this problem. The Illinois farmers, by co-opera- tion, avail themselves of the enormous amount of fertilizing material produced at the stock- yards. Missouri farm lands need every ounce of fertilizer available. In St. Louis it {s mere waste matter and is dumped into the river by the ton. This waste should be stopped. Ln Ap ww eS A man ran about in Union Station the other evening waving his arms and shouting. A pre- sumably accurate account of the occurrence states that “he was given a wide berth.” This may suggest a course .of action to those who have heretofore found the berths provided at the station too narrow for them. = = a. ae GUGGENHEIMIA. The Government has brought suit against the American Smelting and Refining Co., claiming $2,500,000 damages for being swindled out of certain coal lands in Colorado by methods con- ventional in such cases. Among the directors of the defendant smelting company are Daniel Guggenheim, Isaac Guggenheim, Murry Guggen- heim, M. Robert Guggenheim and 8. R. Guggen- heim, which is all the Guggenheims except Sen- ator Simon Guggenheim and one other, who seems to have been mislaid or overlooked for the in- stant. Senator Simon Guggenheim used to be a direc- tor, but it was found more advantageous to detach him and place him in the United States Senate as the representative from the Guggenhelms. With a representative in the Senate, it is hard to understand why the Guggenhelms would steal land. The alleged stealing must have taken place in the old days when methods were crude and before the Guggenheims discovered that the bet- ter and easier way is to have the laws made to fit their plans than to fool away time in fitting their plans to the laws. But the suit is a very interesting supplement to that large and grow- ing branch of current literature known as mee

THE PEREGRINATIONS OF HOW. St. Louls will not lack advertisement in other cities, so long as the wayfaring life continues to attract James Eads How. In Chicago, Mil- waukee, New York and other places where re- moteness from the St. Louls Assessor’s office renders exaggeration excusable, he is acclaimed the “Millionaire Hobo.” And -while he does not make it his mission to demonstrate that St. Louis has the goods, the inference drawn from his title is vastly favorable to this city; for what wealth must await the earnest toller in a town where the very hoboes, forsooth, are millionaires? This week How is in New York, getting more publicity than a diva’s divorce suit. Thence he ‘proposes to move on Washington, and, with the aid of a few prominent personages, to keep the capital from experiencing a dull season when the special session is over. He wants the use of the Senate chamber, and with the gently sad, but effectively persistent manner in which How goes ,

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, In 1856 I was living in California and cast my first vote for James Buchanan. About that time San Francisco escaped getting in the power of a big cinch. A company of moneyed men formed a coalition and was known as the Bulkheaders. They put up a jack pot and elected the Legislature to give them the right to collect wharfage and dockage on every passenger and freight for 60 years. At the same election we elected Milton 8. Latham, from the northern part of the State, Gov- ernor, and John G, Durney, from Los Angeles, Lieutenmant-Governor.. Then they got the tip that Latham might veto their bill, so they jofned with his friends and sent him to the United States Senate. That made Downey Governor. They passed their bill ang Downey vetoed it, and saved San Francisco from their grip for the last 50 years and probably for all time. If some of our wealthy citizens were to propose to build a subway or elevated road from the river front to Creve Coeur Lake and from the Barracks to Spanish Lake and make the city a present of it, I doubt very much that our Big Cinch would allow our city officials to accept it. What this country needs is a Yadero. He has wiped out the Mexican Big Cinch.just in time to save his country. This*city also needs more men Iike ex-Mayor Joseph Brown who gave us the “Brown backs” and Hiram W. Leffingwell, who gave us the parks, and Harry T. Mudd, who gave us the Scheme and Charter.

waxed cards. Too Many Dogs. To the Editor or the Post-Dispatch. There is a law on our books (which has never been enforced) to compel the muzzling of dogs. Since the hot weather spell started there have been, according to your paper, over one hundred people bitten by vicious and: mad dogs, most, or, rather, nearly all of them being little children. Right here a.question of humanity arises: Is it better to look to the comfort of a dog, or to pro- tect our little ones by muzzling the curs? Just last Friday seven people, mostly children again were bitten by a dog, which was afterward found to have rabies. Now, {fs it not a shame and a disgrace* when a supposed-to-be-enlightened city like ours will allow such conditions to pre- vail? -A FATHER, Folk or Olark? ‘To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. IT think it would be advisable for Mr. Folk to withdraw his name from the list of aspirants for the nomination of 1912. I know it would be an impossibility for him to be elected President of the Uniteqg States. I would vote much quicker for the man whom the office wanted than the man seeking the office. I am a loyal, stanch Dem- ocrat and I love my party and it is as dear to me as my heaft’s blood, and I don’t want to see it go down to defeat {n 1912. My choice for the nomi- nation and standard bearer of the banner of Democracy, and the majority of Missourians agree with me, is to have Missourt’s favorite son, the grand, good, noble Piker, the Hon. Champ Clark of Missouri, as the nominee. He is the greatest Roman of them all, and for his great services in Congress and the battles he has fought ifn that body against Republican corruption against an overwhelming mafority, for the welfare of the un- fortunate and poorer classes, he deserves this high honor, and should have it, and I would advise the State convention when they select the delegates for the national convention to consider well this grave question, and they to be inetructed for Mis- souri’s son, Hon. Champ Clark, the champion of Democracy—true and loyal. G. Cc. Cc. ("014 Hickory’’). Beating the Public Administrator. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I haven’t any estate to speak of. Therefore, I want what I have to go where I want it to. Occurrences of the last few days in the Probate Court have convinced me that it would be the hefght of a good thing for me to put my affairs in such shape that there will be no question who is to administer whatever I may happen to leave. And fust for that I sat down yesterday, wrote out my will in the plainest language I could find, except for a few such words as “aforesaid” and ‘hereinbeforé mentioned,” and got two of my friends to sign it as witnesses. I put it in the envelope with my life insurance policy and told my wife it was there. Thereupon fhe news stories about.the Public Administrator's office became of purely academic, and possibly civic interest me. Am I right? POOR MAN, Laundry Prices. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In Detroit, a practical tourist town, the laun- dries are far more reasonable than here, Cities Have Their Slogans; St. Louls Has the Goods"—a very good slogan but how expensive to keep those “goods” clean. I am fn a position where I mest the public in general from near and far. Our laundry prices are the unfavorable comment of the people who travel and can com- pare our ofty (with its goods) to other cities. If the traveler will take notice, why does not the resident? We of Missouri have to be “shown,” why not show the laundry trust or combine up in its true light? The St. Louis Laundrymen’s As- sociation controls the price of about 80 percent of our laundries, excluding the Chinese. Other cities have lower prices and make money; why cannot we have the same prices, likewise profit? Some few years ago the laundries tried to com- dine, but were balked in the early start.

if You - ee ee ee Must Work Beware in the Summer a Eminent Women Physicians Warn Business Women Against Their Peculiar Dangers, in Interviews for the Post-Dispatch By Marguerite M. Marshall. OMEN are shorténing their lives by going # SW erate Sa Sically able to stand the hardships and overcome the ills and troubles that come to the business man. Choosing an environment which pre- vents her from fulfilling her natural mission in life, she has got to suffer in one way or another. “The sex was meant to receive the} shelter of the home. Woman was physiologically intended to perform the household duties which give her opportunities to rest when she feels so inclined, to eat regularly, and to be surrounded by an atmosphere which produces the truly feminine creature—the wife, sister and mother.” R. MARTHA LOVELL, one of Bos- ton’s best known ~ physicians, has just sounded this note ef warn- ing to her fellow-townsmen and women. Dr. Pugenia Hancock says: “Tt is unquestionably true that women are physiologically unsuited to a busi- ness life. They have forced themselves, or been forced, into the world ef stores and shops and offices, and they will soon, if they do not already, repent of it. They cannot stand the killing pace of the modern industrial world; at least, they cannet stand it for many years. “Don’t look at the girl beginners if you want to prove this. Study the busi- ness woman between 4 and &. Note the drawn, tired lines around mouth and bespectacled eyes, the listiess, drag- ging step, the nervous bodily movement. When such a woman does net retire, frankly admitting that she is broken down, it is generally only because her finances will not permit such & step. “T am speaking of what I know, be- cause I have repeatedly been given the opportunity to study gsuch ‘cases in the course of my practice. They are both stragio and pitiful. The tragedy is when the woman has been forced into her work for the support of helpless rela- tives. The pitiful instance is where she has deliberately put aside marriage and a happy home to pursue the chimera of financial independence. ‘In either case the sacrifice is too valuable, and our American men should ‘not permit it. As Dr. Lovell observes, the natural work for a woman to do is housework. It is varied, light and adaptable. There is nearly always a enance to lie down and relax complete- ly at some hour of the day. The work is performed among pleasant, health- ful surroundings, and there is no un- congenial crowd of fellow-workers to st on one’s nerves. It is surely ideal.” “Nevertheless, there are at least six million women in America who are working outside their’ homes, and most of them are working through this hot summer. Are there not certain health precautions which they can take?’ I asked the dector. “Most certainly there are,”’ she re- plied. “I will give you those that I ~ eonsider most essential. ‘ ‘Ee VERY business woman should positively relax during the noon hour. She should lie flat on her back in ool, darkened place and rest every nerve and muscle. “Every employer ought to provide auch rest rooms for the women who work under him. I believe he would find himself paid in their increased efficiency. It would also be a good idea, wherever large numbers of young wom- en are employed, to hire.an older wom- an simply to look after the girls’ health, give them extra rests when needed and su on. “The woman who works during the summer should eat light, cool, nourish- ing food. She should avoid soda water and all fizzy drinks. They have a very bad effect on the stomach. Though ice cream soda is bad, plain ice cream, properly made, is excellent, and the pundaes, with their fruit syrups, if the latter are unadulterated, do no harm. “Buttermilk is a splendid hot weather drink. Plain -uWlk, milk and eggs, and sherbets are all good. There should be plenty of ,coole water. Ice water is all right, if too much of it is not drunk. Avoid the heavier meats and make fresh vegetables and fruits prominent in your menu. Avoid sweets, too: candy should never be eaten in summer. _¢t into the business world. | a Ne = ” eS aes See ee tee ee oy Rte ee , PARES yes - . el we ; We a ‘4 - ” M .

“Take off all your rats and false hair, and when you wear a hat let it be a light one. The head should be kept as ceol as possible. es A> for the rest of the clothes, I think that women at work ought to be permitted te take off their cor- sets and tight shoes and wear simply & one-piece unbelted slip. Failing this, the collarless, elbow-sleeved blouse or shirtwaist suit should always be worn. It is nonsense to martyr one’s self hot days in stiff, tight linens, stmply for the sake of good ferm. Wear the coolest rig decency permits at your work. “Of course, one should always try to work where there are as many windows and as much air as possible. I wish every working woman in New York might possess an electric fan. The hot weather death rate would decrease if she did. “After work is done, dear business woman, keep outdoors. Even if you can’t go further than the . rk areund the block, go there, every night. Come home and take a good bath, put on fresh clothing, eat as nice a dinner as you can afford, and then for the open air. One of New York’s long nickel car rides is a fine way to cool off. Don’t go into hot dance halls and shows, with their tainted ‘iced air.’ Stay under ths sky till half-past nine or ten, then go to bed and sleep ag long as you may. “The business woman who follows this regime is still leading a less healthful life than the home worker,” concluded Dr. Hancock, “‘but she’s doing th. best that can be expected of her.”’ S Or take some simple word as chilly, Or gager, or the garden lily, To spell such words as syllogism And lachrymose and synchronism And Pentateuch and saccharine, Apocrypha and celadine, Jejune and homeopathy, Paralysis and chloroform, Rhinoceros and pachyderm, Metemphychosis, gherkins, basque, Is certainly no easy task, Kaleidoscope and Tennessee, Kamchatka and dispensary, Diphthong and erysipelas, And etiquette and sassafras, Infallible and ptyalism, Allopathy and rheumatism, And cataclysm and beleaguer, Twelfth, eighteenth, rendezvous, triguer, And hosts of other words all found On English and on classic ground. Thus Bering Straits and Michaelmas, Thermopylae, jalap, Havana, Cinquefoil and fpecacuanha, And Rappahannock and Shenandoah, And Schuylkill and a thousand more Are words that some good spellers miss In dictionary lands like this, Nor need one think himself a screyle If some of these his efforts foll, Nor deem himself undone forever To miss the name of either river— The Dneiper, Seine or Guadalquivir.

On How Much May i a Couple Marry?} By SOPHIE IRENE LOEB. ; st OW MUCH A WEEK MAY ACOU- If before, she could not even KEEP H PLE MARRY ON? This is the question asked in many letters received. It is THD ques- tion that confronts young people every day. Of course, in the first glamour of love, when the world seems to hold but two, one thinks one could just endure almost anything. She, for one, can make this or that do. She can make her clothes, etc. “By economy here and careful expenditure there things can move MUCH BASIDR than one would think,” is the belief. And what does a little sacrifice matter when the love dream is young? But to come down to the actual ques- tion, or rather up to it (for I take it the folks who write have meager means and want to know iff they cannot meas- use up to requirements), there are one or two things to consider. For instance, the girl who has been accustomed to gratifying EVERY LIT- TLE DESIRE before taking him will find it bitter medicine to deprive herself of the little nicitiles AFTERWARD. An4 if he has a certain amount of “spending money” it may be difficult to do with less. It may seem easy AT THE TIME, and no matter how in love—after a while, when things assume the natural normal everyday way that things have a habit of doing, then her cravings and longings for luxuries, eta, that per- chance for the time have been bifnded by the little love-god assert themselves again, and there are moments when the woman of her finds herself wishing, wishing—well, all of us know. But the great, overwhelming ques- tion—Can people marry on less than they have been accustomed te and be “eppy? The thing to do is to look at it from all sides WITHOUT the luster of the honeymoon.

ILL STEELE, the big spit K ball flinger of the Cardinals, will be the reliance of the Bresnahanigans in the last game of the series here today. McGraw's best pitcher, Marquard, once the $11,000 lemon, will do the work for McGraw. Marquard, this year, has a splendid record, having lost but three games out of 13. He was beaten rather easily his last out by the Cincinnati Reds, but that is not considered a sign _f weakening on his part.

Roy Collins were traded to Boston for Becker. Now Bridwell and Goudy, a youngster of whom great things have been prophesied, are sent to Boston to get Hlerzog back. The fact that Goudy is included in the deal suggests the probability that Fred Tenney has reached the opinion of the fans that it is time for him to retire. Goudy was bought from Dallas for a first baseman to succeed Tenney, but before he had finished his preparatory course in big league tactics Merkle had made good at the first corner and Mc- Graw has since then been trying to make a catcher out of Goudy. But at that end Meyers has shown such steady improvement and Wilson and Hartley seem so much better than Goudy, there seemed little chance for him to break in. Ought to Make Good. At Boston, if Tenney sends him to first, he ought to prove very soon whether he is of big league caliber. Bridwell has lately been having a lot of trouble with his legs, which is per- haps the reason McGraw is willing to let him go. He was one of the most persistent complainers about the hard field at American League Park while the Giants were playing up there and ascribes his bad legs to his experiences on the hill top. Unless his legs go back on him entirely he ought to add strength to the Rustlers, for he {s a very fast man. MISSOURI III GOES TO PEORIA REGATTA Walter Beauvais and Hugo Lippert, drivers and owners of the world’s cham- pion 26-foot speed boat, Missouri III, will depart with their craft this after- noon for Peoria, Ill., for the motorboat races to be held at that place next Monday and Tuesday afternoon. The Missouri III received some hard raps at the Davenport regatta, the brass bow sheating being twisted out of all shape, the rudder being torn off and the tail end of the boat so warped that a new end was necessary. Other gen- eral repairs to the hull were necessary. Tlie Missouri, however, broke the world’s record for 26-foot speedboats and brought batk four cups and about $250 in prize money. After the Peoria races Lippert and Beauvais will take thejr boat to Detroit,

that is, if they have any boat left.

St. Louis will be represented by two four-oared shell clews at’the national amateur regatta to be held at Sara- toga, N. Y., July 28-29, a disappointing showing considering the fact that 8t. Louis was thought to have a chance to boost the National Regratta west- ward. The Western Rowing Club members, ‘at a meeting held Thursday night, decided that the four from that club, Koop- man bow, L. Ferdina No. 2, H. Ferdina No. 3 and John Lange stroke, had a trip coming to them, even if they fail to row at all the National. It was voted to send the four East and wheth- er the quartet makes a good shqwing or not Johnny Joachim, coach and captain of the Westerns, will be con- gratulated by the members of the club for the excellent work he has done with the wearers of the white jerseys this season. Joachim will accompany his crew East. Mound City Four Going. The Mound Citys have decided to send their four East. This was definitely }settled at a meeting Wednesday aight. Ben Spradling, captain and coach of the Madison street boys, is keeping mum about just what he intends to do. He bas made a change in his four and one man has been sent to the bench. As the Mound Citys go out in semi-darkness for their practice each evening and Spradling seems to want to keep the name of his new star under his bonnet, it will not be possible to learn the make-up of this black and gold crew for the National for severa; days. *Central Not Going. The Central Rowing Club held a meet- ing last night and sprang a real sur- prise when the club decided not to send a four to the national regatta. It was the Centrals that carried off the four- oared shell championship at the Central States regatta, held at Peoria, last Mon- day and Tuesday. Mike Begley, coach of the Centrals, declared that with Clem Burkamper and some of his other stars out of the game for the season, he would make a poor showing. There were two subs in the boat at Peoria that won for the Centrals. M. A. C. Swimmers Expect to Compete in Chicago Event Frank Sullivan, acquatic director of the M. A. C, will. take a number of his pad- dlers out to Laughlin’s Lake, In St. Louis County, this afternoon and send them through training stunts In preparation for the 10-mile national swimming. champion- ship race, to be held in the Mississippi River next month. Chauncey Heath, the star paddler of the Cherry Diamond squad, is at present on a canoe trip from St. Paul to st® Louls, and will not be one of the contestants in the work-outs this afternoon. L. B. Banks. A. M. “Gus” Goessling and Heath have been mentioned as the St. Louisans who will swim in the two-mile swim under the auspices of the Illinois A. C. at Chicago July 29. This swim ts the same event in which one man, not an “expert” by any means, was drowned and many of the men forced to quit a few years ago. Even Handy, thr times winner of the M. A. C. 10-mile swim, had to toss up the sponge and get out of the water. The reason is that the swim is held in the Chicago River and the cold water cramps the swimmers. T O D ” y’ S

THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH. VERY now and then Jack Powell 2 wakes up to remind us that, in his major league career of 15 years or thereabouts he has averaged .600 in his “games won” standing. Big John still has his good right arm, and about the same steam and pitching equipment as of yore; but in these days of the five per cent livelier ball, his is a harder row to hoe. For John’s specialty is giving his fielders exercise. He believes in remem- bering there are eight other men play- ing the game beside himself and, far from occupying all the limelight, John provides them with a chance to shine. In other words, Powell will take a chance on letting his fielders protect him. Those tactics once were good. In fact John still gets away with them to a degree. But the added speed to batted grounders and flies makes it more difficult for his infield and outfield to back him up with the same efficiency as in the old days. « * DAY OF THE STRIKE-OUT MAN. HIS is essentially the day of the T pitcher who can “fool’’ the batter. The strikeout twirler has a value he never enjoyed before. Pitchers can- not now afford to have batters con- nect with the ball at all. Weak swing- ers who formerly were wont to drive rather smartly to the infield, only to go out at first, now find that their raps, struck with the same force as of yore, but against a more responsive ball, are “too hot’’ for the infield to handle. So it is up to the flinger to keep this individual from touching the ball. And that applies, in increasing importance, in proportion to the hitting average of the batter. Inability to keep the batters from find- ing the ball sufficiently accounts for the increased number of men in the .800 di- vision of both leagues. For there is un- doubtedly a greater percentage of bat- ted balls that drop safe this seagon, al] due to that 5 per cent increase in its activity. And that is one reason why men who employ the ancient tactics of “Red’’ John Powell are really pitching @ great game when they get away with a con- test euch as that against Washiugton Friday. TASK IS SUPERAUMAN. OWELL pitched one game here re against the Athletics, eany in the season, that was wonderful, in a way.” The Athletics had been hitting John hard, just as he probably expected they would. But the fielders turned somersaults, did flying acrobatics, with one-handed spearing of flies, catching the ball with one hand, running back- ward, falling while catching the fly and coming up with the ball, and other stunts as features. For seven Innings they “got by,” for John by superhuman fielding. keep it up, and the team cracked In the eighth and ninth rounds. So did John. Anda so will any other pitcher of today who puts it up to his fielders to the lextent which once was considered the proper thing. The pitcher today must,

GOOD RECORD, ANYWAY. WW vce: whatever happens to the Cardinals, they have had a goody If they lose Sunday, as well as Saturday, the clab will have won Jl games and lost eight, which will probably be better than any other Western club’s record. It is a per- centage which is just about the team’s average for the season, .679. Against the Eastern clubs giving the New Yorks the benefit of the doubt about the final game, the team will have won nine games and lost five, a percentage good enough to arouse the envy of rivals, . 643, So, whether an Entertainment Com- mittee arranges fora reception here or not, the work of the Cardinals {s such that there is sure to be a big gather- ing of the fans to greet the team on its arrival here, ness: 4 morning, from Cin- cinnati. trip.

In the doubles an equally good collection of stars will compete. Matches in the preliminary and first rounds of the singl«; and doubles were scheduled for this afternoon. It was announced that entries for the woman’s events and the mixed doubles would be

CATCHER CLARKE SOLVES PROBLEM AT FIRST BASE take Good Showing of “Nig” on In- itial Cushion Helps Out Wallace. of President Robert L. Hedges of _ the Browns, after his mysterious visit East, he failed to announce any news but hinted that he had something up his sleeve. Whether this {s in the shape of a major league player or two or some promising minor leaguers is not known, It is believed, however, that Hedges went East to look over some players. He said that he had been on the road almost all the time since he left St. Louis last Sunday night. He said he had traveled more than 2500 miles since leaving here. This would indicate that he and Chief Scout Fred Lake looked up some half dozen youngsters. Hedges hasn't been very busy in the purchasing line this summer. That is none of his purchases have been an- nounced. He seems to be letting Man-’ agers Duffy, Jennings, Clarke, Dooin, Bresnahan, McGraw, Chance and Mack crowd him out of the spotlight as to purchases made. Clarke Should Help Team. Two days’ work is no criterion of 4 man’s real worth at any position on a ball club, but the Browns seem improved With Jay Justin Clarke on first basa The fact that Manager Wallace delayed in putting “Nig’’ at the first sack has caused some comment among the close followers of the team. However, it is pointed out thaf Walk lace, until just lately, could not af- ford to use Clarke any place but behind the bat because of the injuries to Jimmy Stephens. Stephens met with a severe accident on the team's early visit to Detroit and was out of the game for more than a month. When he was ready to resume play he had to go ~ about it gradually. Noy that Horseshoe James is himself again, Clarke can be spared for other duties and the indications are that jhe will continue at the first cushion, pro- vided, of course, that Stephens remains himself and Paul Krichell continues the good work he has shown in his few outs. Seog the return to St. Louis

“MRS, MAXON PROTESTS.” 7 OUBLESS you remember D The novelist A. HOPE, His prisoner of Zenda, ““" And his quite romantic scope? Well, would you ever think it, This most contrite of men - Has given up that sort of thing And taken up the pen? The flexible Toledo Is hanging on a nail, And love has long ago resigned It’s terror-stricken wail. The gifted Mr. Hawkins Has cast them all aside, And nowadays the ink, and not The blood, is being dried. You may believe us fooling The same as Dr. Cook, But on the level, friends, fhe same A. Hope has done a book. It isn’t such a matter As time will scarcely dim, But the point we want to make ts that It’s bully good for him. The man who stuck to pcople Has taken hold of things, And all but takes a sea: among The literary iings. So pleasantly discursive, He rivals at his best The entertaining Bennett, DeMorgan and ths res. The tumult and the shouting Have thundered down the road, And after them is something in The literary mode. A fine, well-written story, It can not fail to hold The reader twice as long as when The hero was so bold. (“Mrs. Maxon Protests,’’ by Anthony Hope. ifarper’s.) SCIENCE AND HUMAN HORSE- POWER. REDERICK WINSLOW TAYLOR F is the founder of ‘‘the science of industrial management,” now rep- resented prominently by Mr. Brandeis and others. It is the most interesting cf all the very modern sciences, espe- ctally to the unscientific, hence they are ‘We matevial it is now working on. As the machinery used in industry becomes nore nearly automatic, the purpose of the science of industrial management is to raise men to the level of automatic etficiency represented by machinery. This is now explained in “Shop Man- agement” by Mr. Taylor. It is intended to apply the mathematical principles controlling human horsepower which lie discovered and defined in ‘“‘The Prin- ciples of Scientific Management.” This is to be done mathematically. The time each action in a given amount of-work costs is carefully noted. The average time cost is f:und by carefully noting it in the work of a sufficient number of men. In the hundred men, when 10 are above the average and 30 . below it, the obtci of the science of ‘marageinent ic to prevent the efficiency of the fastest and best workers from being controlled by the glowest and Poorest. It is taken for granted that #8 against the 10 men at the top who will work their best, there may be 10 of the bottom who: are deliberately lazy, “‘soldiering”’ or shirking in @ wey which increases the time cost of all work done by the hundred. As the object of scientific management is to control these by the horsepower of the most efficient, this new science is frank- ly a process of “speeding.” ~ Measuring with the dollar is “‘the final term;” it demonstrates success as easily } ‘ible when t is proposed to raise wages while decreasing “labor cost.” “Labor cost’ is almost the same as If a hundred men, timed mathematically and scientifically, can learn to turn out twice as much work in & given time, their average wages can be raised, while at the same time those who reduce time cost most can be paid Wages above the average. This puts a premium on efficiency. It releases effi- cient men from control by the impulses of the laziest or least efficient. Its magshematical operation is to paise aver- age wages, while raising the average “amount of work done in a given time so that the slowest and least efficient are finally forced out by the raised aver- age. The point of failure is self-evident. It is proposed not to sacrifice quality, but what we call “quality” in any human rroduct is the sum total of the human intelligence put into it at the expense cf time and pains. In machine work 3 this quality: appears to be inserted me- chanically through the human intelli- gence already embodied -in almost auto- matic machinery. The most notorious fact, however, of the products of ma- _chinery is that as machinery saves time cost in production, it lowers quality. The steel prcduced mechanically at the lowest time cost refuses to hold its edge in an ax or a knife blade. So of ' everything else in the mechanical -_ “speeding process.” Its products at its cen highest successes fall as against products in which quality means buman \, intelligence inserted through the maxi- mum cost of time and pains. If Mr. ‘Taylor succeeds in lowering the cost of time and pains to the minimum by speeding up human horsepower to the maximum, he does it mathematicaliy and inevitably at the expense of the “quality” which scientifically is nothing more than the results of the time cost and pains cost of putting human intelli- | @@nce into the material. Finally this: wpelence, as it attempts to reduce time. gost to’ the minimum, subtracts its suc- ess in “the best finish.” Under its own be laws, finish in any work giving quality $6 highest natural value begins as a ) —" mocess after the close of the strenuous xpenditure of human horsepower meas- 4 mechanically in its time values. If sh is real and not a mere surface ‘ation it expresses the affection of worker for “his own work It ex- clubs Yes the pleasure he feels in making ork show itself worthy of himself nnd its purposes. After he has used his Porsepower in forcing mind inte his re- suits he expresses the case and pleas- | , «fe of such soul as he has in him tn. the h he gives it to make it worthy of @ own best life.

values and translated into money val- ues may result in more gnoney for the efficient worker and in an increase in the number of efficient workers until time cost or labor cost is reduced. The automatic ‘‘output’’ of machinery may be greatly increased by it. Except as intelligence is automatically put into rroducts by machinery this science op- erates at the expense of the intelligence ireerted into the products by time and pains which the buyer of any product expects to find in it when he pays for it in dollars which represent his own ‘time cost.” As a science it leaves the profit of the buyer or the user of its goods to be determined by experience as they wear or wear out.

White,’ someone with a tale to unfold has writ- ten anonymously a very common story of very “uninteresting people, in which mixed metaphors and tenses are jum- bled Into such a confusing mass as to at times entirely obscure the author's meaning. After telling the story in several acts and a final “curtain call’’ the author offers an argument of some length upon the social ev’ question ahd Piatonic love which he asserts, “is the happy hunting ground whereupon re- spectability caresses illicitness with soft, affectionate stroke.”” The argu- ment throughout seems just as hollow as the story.

HREE YEARS IN THE CONFE ERATE HORSE ARTILLERY.” EORGE MM. NEESE’S book, G ‘Three years in The Confederate Horse Artillery’” may or may not add anything to the history of the, great struggle of fifty years ago but it is a delightfully human story of war and it incidentally answers &@ thousand questions for the mag who has never studied war as a science and who finds much that is written of the great strife tiresome. Neese did not believe in war but when Virginia seceded he wert with his mother state. He did better than chat, he fought for her position and when he enlisted was assigned to Chew’s battery which fought under ‘‘the glorious Jeb Stuart.’ Neese wrote his book from day to- day, beginning Dec. 11, 1861, when he enlisted and apparently nothing has been added or taken away. Almost every day is represented. Some days, perhaps, have only a comment on the weather, usually when the air was nip- ping and clothing scant. The May 19, 1862 entry is: “T was appointed first corpo: ‘al, which means first gunner in the battery. I knew very little about gunnery; in fatt nothing, except that a gun in good health never shoots backward.” Five days later, “Captain Chew ordered me to unlimber and fire on them. I did so. The shell was way too high and went at least half a mile beyond the Yanks and exploded.”’ The night before the Battle of Cedar Mountain a band ac- companying an incoming regiment marched past the battery camp at mid- night playing ‘‘Home Sweet Home.” Neese comments: “T tried to banish the reverie, but it sticks to me even after the music has died away, and I wish for the power and might to rise and shell off my blanket and smash to atoms every im- plement of war in all creation, so that we could all go home satisfied and grat- ified and dwell in peace with all man- kind ever more.” At this time Neese and his comrades were having much fun over Gen. Pope’s reported statement that he “had never seen anything of the Rebels but their backs.”” Aug. 9 he writes: ‘“T have no idea what kind of timber is in this giant from the west who has been feeding on-eagle’s meat—but by the time he bumps up against the stick- ing qualities of Jackson’s bayonets and receives a few object lessons in flank- ing from the master of that art, he will be ready to soar up to Washington and whisper to the Secretary of War that he (Pope). believes and is under the serious impression that he has had a peep of the Rebels that did not look exactly like their backs.’’ Soon after comes an description of a dinner garnered from a corn field ‘‘protected by one of the ten commandments and the army orders.” Also how Neese gathered up the half wilted shucks for a pillow and in the night received the scare of -his life when he was awakened by the hot breath of a cow that was eating his pillow. On each order to fire upon the enemy Neese seems to have drawn his own conclusions as to what was necessary to do. Often he remarks, “I dropped the shell near enough to make them hurry back.’”’ Again he takes great pride in the number of saddles emptied. At one time Gen. Fitzhugh Lee stopped near the battery and noting that the men were exhausted ordered one of the gunner to lie down and _ took charge of the gun himself. And Neese ccemments: ‘‘He worked like ,an old hand and was the best gunner in the battery while he lasted.”’ While the fighting along the Rappa- hannock was in progress he writes: “We had just loaded our guns when a 12-pound solid shot came _ crashing through a little house. When I saw the cebris, such as slivered weather board- ing, pieces of window sash and frac- tured glass flying at us, and very sen- sibly felt the concussion of the solid shot, I thought that the hill had ex- ploded.’’ His good humor is unfailing.

—— ee ee eee to try anything new, as it might throw us headlong on the sick list in the busy season of house building.”’ Of Sheridan, when his army was sure- fly defeating the Confederates, Neese writes: “Sheridan must be a regular butter and a much better actor in tragedy than in strategy.” Later he became a prisoner of war and some of what he wrote of his ex- periences after that is not pleasant and much of it is pathetic. Not a little of his comment is sarcastic but then comes the joy of the home going. (Neale Publishing Co.) SOCIAL “LEGAL DOCTRINE AND PROGRESS.” POSTHUMOUS work by the late A Prof. Frank Parsons, author of many books on diversified sub- jects, has been brought out ty his friends and literary executor, Ralph Albertson. In this last work, writ- ten by Prof Parsons during his final illness, the author undertakes to show that the law is not necessarily reactionary, but that it is progressive —as progressive as the’ public will allow it to be. The book is called “Legal Doctrine and Social Progress.’ The author maintains that legal doc- trine is compatible with social prog- ress, He shows that the law cannot be the leader in social progress or ‘n radicalism. Public sentiment must be formed first for a given thing, and only after a well defined public sentl- ment exists in favor of a thing can the law cement and preserve it until it becomes an integral part of humap society. Law, according to Dr. Parsons. helps mold individuais as well as society. It does that through “the proportional repression of evil actions and quali- ties, and encouragement of good ac- tions and qualities by all means not costing more than the worth of what remembering that dif- ferent methods are proper in different stages of development.” He also Le- lieves that human law should mini- mize the evil effects of natural law as far as possible by leveling the ef- fects of accidents, for instance, by Systems of state insurance. The law, the author believes, is a “reservoir of social progress, and this reservoir will become stagnant unless it._have an outlet and an inlet. Into it the new life of this age must flow: it must circulate and permeate the whole, and the outworn forms of the past must go out. In the law Prof. Parsons sees the germs of progress and of social conscience. “The law,’ he says, “is helping to create the conscience which in turn will make the new law expressing itself.”’ He concludes “The law is here. It fits human life on the whole fairly :well It is far in advance of many. It is a great uplifting force to the masse:. And law is to hold fast that which we have gained, as well as to be the arena in which the spheres of indi- vidual and communal development are slowly and painfully to be molded and remolded and given definition.” Although the book deals with lega! doctrine there are no technical terms used, nor is there any typical “legal parlance” employed. The style rs simple. The various phases of the subject stand out in proper relief. It is the kind of book that should be read and frequently consulted after first reading by social reformers, law- yers, judges and g]] who desire to understand their own city, state or country as well as those of others, (B. W. Huebsch.)

VAUGHAN KESTER. AUGHAN KESTER, who wrote VV “The Prodigal Judge,” is dead. He died at his home in Virginia —Gunston Hall; on thee Potomac—and was buried a few days ago at Mount Vernon, O. The death of the author immediately after making the literary success of the year in America, was a shock to the literary world. Mr. Kester was a brother of Paul Kester, the playwright, and a cousin of William Dean Howells. He was in: middle life, was born at Brunswick, N. J., and had lived at dif- ewved of Wie pit taltie wave eo curred much as they are given in “The, Prodigal Judge” “PERPETUA.” “I am a« fairy,” said Perpetua. “And/ tae I Itve near a little round pool and teach butterflies to dance, and I live on wild honey and ferns, and I go—plop!—in the water when anyone comes past. And I have a rat butler who says, ‘Here's the melon seeds you ordered, walking up the road.’ ”’ And it was a fairy life that Mary Perpetua O’Cree lived with the artist father whom she confidently took it upon herself to adopt in Chapter One of Dion Clayton Calthrop’s romance. It led her through the Bohemia of studio life, along the flowered roadways of France in a circus caravan, to the be- lated school days which ushered the happy fairy into womanhood. Brian O’Cree and a kindly fate had sheltered the child, but life was less kind to the lovely woman who, on the morning of her twentieth birthday, looked outdoors to see if the world had changed during the night. It had changed portentously, for inte her life had come her own father, doing his knavish worst to dim the sunshine that the adopted father had kept bright in Perpetua’s eyes. His efforts, and the girl’s interpretation of her religious duty brought into her life such suf- fering as must leave its mark; yet the Perpetua whom we leave in Brian’s arms at the close is much like the Perpetua who long before crept into those arms and whispered “Father.” (John Lane Co.)

ferent times in New York, in England, | and in Virginia. He was the author of! three former books, “‘The Manager of the B. & A.,” “John o’ James Town,” and “The Fortunes of the Landreys.’’ The Kesters lived for a number of years in what was known in New York as the Big White House. This delightful old place, commanding the Hudson and the Palisades, was the rendezvous of literary people, artists and players. Subsequently they went to live in Nellie Custis’ old home, Wood Lawn Mansion, and it was there that Vaughan Kester met the original of the now celebrated ‘T’'ncle Bob’’ Yancey. He was a very shy man and little inclined to obtrude himself upon any one, but as time went on he overcame his distrust of the new- comers at the mansion sufficiently to come up to the “big house’ now and then for a day’s work when properly urged. Little by little the intimacy grew be- tween the author and the man whose portrait he was afterward to draw so well. If Vdughan was missing at dinner time—he usually was—and no response came to the dinner gong no matter how violently it boomed over the land, some member of the family was certain to ask, ‘“‘Have you looked for Vaughan on the woodpile back o! the barn? I’m sure he’s out there talking to Bob Yan- cey.”” ‘ In one aspect “The Prodigal Judge” is strictly historic, Murrell end Murrell’s gang of slave-Stealers were seal . epi- sodes in the early life of the Missisalp- pi Valley, and Murrell] actually planned to devastate the entire region between the Ohio and New Orleans, by rousing
