LONDON, Aug. 19.—The strike de. clared by the Amb&lgamated Society of Railway Servants and three allied societies was attended with compara- tively little rioting today, though the afternoon brought reports. of blood- shed at Lianelly, Wales, where troons fired on a mob, killing two men and woundin, a third. . Shortly before this news was re- ceived the home office issued an op- timistic bulletin. It read: “Perfect tranquility and order pre- valls throughout the London districts. Reduced, but effective traim service ig operated at all stations. The port of London is working at its full ac. tivity with the exception of the light ermen, who are still on strike. “No serious rioting is reported from any part of the country. although there have been disorders at various points. The Lord Mayor of Liverpool reports that he is being loyally supportea by magistrates and large number of citi- zens, 3000 constables have been sworn in at Liverpoo)."’ The disorders mentioned by Home Sec- retary Churchill were ehiefly conflicts between the strikers and police in the northern towns. Violent attempt to damage the railroads were few. In some instances the rails were torn up, creeough wires cut and signal boxes wrecked. “osng trains have been stoned and ‘ne obstructions put in their way; but ail of the obstructions were discovered in time to avert accident. Few Trains Run, The chief railway companies of En- gland are living up to their promises to maintain restricted train service under the protection of soldiers and the police. Trains were running this morning on all lines, although in greatly reduced numbers. A fair percentage of the men remained loyal, while a large number of applications were made for work by outsiders. Even some of the union men continued _ at their. duties, being reluctant to strike while negotiations for a settlement were proceeding. A few local urlions adopted resolutions not to strike until some de- cision had been arrived between the Government leaders and the railway managers. .

A valuation basis of $7500 a front foot, the largest price ever recorded for property in St. Louis west of Twelfth Street, was made in a 99-year lease to George W. Teasdale of the southwest corner of Olive street and Grand av- enue. An annual ground rental of $15,000 is provided for in the lease completed Friday. The lease is based on a 4 per cent net valuation of $375,000 for the Olive street frontage of 50 feet. The property ex- tends 100 feet on Grand avenue and con- tains a three-story stone building. The conditions of the conveyance provide that the old building shall be replaced with a business building of sufficient value to insure the rental of the fee. Teasdale plans to erect an eight-story business structure on the property, but the exact character of the building has not been determined. The site is owned by Thomas Halpin, who conducts a drug store in the corner of the ground floor. He has refused many offers to pur- chase the property, holding it with a view to leasing it as a permanent in- vestment. NEW WAY TO GET RID OF A MOTHER-IN-LAW

Son-in-Law Won’t Receive Her When She Comes From En- gland, So She Is Deported. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 19.—Amorz the pa -enger& who sailed from here to- day for Liverpool on the steamer Me- ron was a mother-in-law who had been “turned down” by her son-in-law and was being deported ty the National Gov- ernment because she was likely to be- come a public charge. | The mother-in-law is an English won- an and her son-in-law is a resident of this city. \Vhen the woman arrived here last Monday on the Meron to make her home with her daughter the son-in-law yrotested to the immigration authori- ties against her being landed. In his formal protest he declared the mother-in-law, who had visited him vefore, to be a perpetual trouble maker, objectional in many ways and that it was impossible for him to live under the same roof with her. His wife joined him in the formal pro- test. The mother-in-law being well up in years and the son-in-law refusing to receive her, there was nothing left for the immigration officials to do but de- port her.

A HEARING REVEALS HEARST’S OPTION TO BU THE STAR Proposition Made to Referee to Pay $55,000 for Equity of E. G. Lewis by Nathan Frank Who Plans Then to Conclude Deal With New York Publisher.

MASTER COLES WOULD QUESTION LEWIS Wishes to Talk to Him and Expert on Newspaper Val- ues and Hearing Is Set for Monday—Mortgage Fore- closure Hinted.

The plan of William Randolph Hearst of New York, publisher of newspapers to buy The Star in a hearing before. Walter D. Coles, special master in a number of cities, Was revealed Saturday appointed to take testimony in behalf of the receiver the E. G. Lewis properties. Attorney Philip W. and Jehn H. Williams, representing a com- mittee created to reorganize the Lewis properties, appeared before*Coles and urged him to recommend to the re- ceiver Matt Reynolds, the acceptance of @ proposition to sell the Lewis equity in the Star to Nathan Frank for $55.000. As an additional consideration, Frank is to turn over to the receiver for the Lewis properties $35,000 of real estate notes, the ownership of which is in dispute. Frank contends that the ownership of the notes is vested in him, but the Lewis interests claim the notes were put up as col- lateral to secure Frank when Lewis failed to keep up his payments on the property. , Option Was Extended. Tt was revealed that Hearst had ob- tained an option of purchase on the Star, to be exercised on or before Sept. 15, and that the option had been extended 30 days. The deal between Hearst and Frank was so urgent, it developed, that Coles was induced to interrupt his vaca- tion and return from Michigan to St. Louis to hear testimony as to the value of the Lewis interests -in the Star, and to determine whether to recommend the acceptance of the Hearst offer. Haberman and Williams told Coles that Lewis owned 1350 shares of the 5000 shares of the capital stock of the Star. Of this he had pledged about 250 shares, so that about 1100 shares were involved in the deal, Williams said Frank probably would get $100,- 000 for the 1100 shares if his deal with Hearst went through, indicating that a valuation of about $500,000 had been placed on the property. $50,000 Cash Offered. While it was not brought out at the hearing, it has become known in St. Louis that Hearst has offered to pay Frank $50,000 cash for the Star and assume all og its outstanding obliga- tions, providing wJrank can acquire the Lewis equity. Coles told Haberman and Williams that he would like to hear the testi- mony of a newspaper expert as to the for Haberman like to have Lewis called as a witness. It was agreed that Lewis should ap- pear at an open hearing before Coles at 10 a. m. Monday. Coles: said it had been represented to him that Lewis invested about $500,000 in the Star when he bought it a few years ago. He said he could not under- stand how the Lewis interests had dwindled to a valuation of $55,000 in such a short time. He wanted to have Lewis called, he said, to make an explana- tion. Williams said, in the discussion of the value of the Star, that it was worth whatever it could be sold for. He said there were but three men in the United States, one among them being Hearst, who could use the property. He said Frank probably would make a profit on the Lewis stock, but that he would have to take long term note or bonds, and that it would be years before he could convert them into cash. Asks Reason for Haste. “What is the urgency of this propo- sition?’ Coles asked. “Why should I be called here from my vacation in Michigan to consider this proposition? Why does not the receiver for the Lewis properties sell the Star?’ Haberman and Williams explained that Frank held all the stock but the 13h) shares, and that before the receiver could. sell the property he would have to satisfy the Frank claims. It would be much easier, they said, to sel] the Lewis equity to Frank so that he could sell it under the option. If the receiver sold the property he would have to raise §110,000 to pay Frank outright,”’ said Williams. “He wouid have to pay $15,000 rent, and raise about $175,000 to pay operating expenses and loeses until the paper Could be sold. The simple method would be to sell the Lewis equity to Frank and let him dispose of it as he sees fit.” Haberman and Williams urged Coles to recommend to Judge Dyer and Receiver value of the Star, and that he would}:

Girl Stands by His Side and Sheuts Encouragement to Men Battling in Waves. By Associated Press. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Aug. 19.—Wire- less ‘messages received here early today gave meager details of the rescue of the crew of the sinking yacht Zingara off Horton’s Point, in Long Island Sound, this morning. Jacob Astor’s yacht Noma, on which Col. Astor and his fiancee, Miss Made- line Force, are cruising to Newport. Col. Astor and Miss Force watched the thrilling rescue from the deck. The young woman, with her fiance, stood at the yacht’s railing, he direct- ng his men, and she shouting encour- agement to the life-savers. The Zingara left here yesterday and ran into a squall off Indian Neck, which washed the decks clear, opened up the seams of the boat and left the crew of five helpless in a high sea. The sailors had to man the pumps and keep them going while the vessel drifted before the wind. The water in the hold was gaining rapidly on them when the Noma was seen off Horton’s Point. Sends Up a Rocket. The Zingara sent up a rocket as soon as the lights of the Astor boat were sighted, and Capt. Roberts of the Noma, at Col. Astor’s direction, put his high powered electric search- light into commission and turned it on the Zingara, quickly making clear her plight. Twelve miles off Horton’s Point, in a high. sea, the rescue was effected by the men of the Noma. The sinking Zingara was left behind, while her crew was hustled into commodious quarters, given a change of clothing and the best meal that the Noma’s lockers would provide. The rescued men will be landed at New London. Detail of Rescue. The rescue\was described in the fol- lowing wireless message received by the Associated Press today from the Noma: “Captain Richard Roberts, master of Col. J. ‘J. Astor’s steam yacht Noma, rescued the crew of five men from the fifty-two-foot sloop Zingara at 11:30 p. m. (Friday). Strong wind from west northwest with very rough sea. She (The Zingara) left Duck Island this morning headed toward Newhaven. She struck heavy squall off Indian Neck, which nearly capgized her washing bin- nacle and everything movable over- board. The five men worked at the pumps all the afternoon but without avail, as her seams had opened badly. “Captain of Zingara said several ves- sels paid no attention to their signals for help. Col. John J. Astor was.on deck during the rescue and gave 4as- sistance when launching and taking in Hfeboat. Mr. and Miss Force were on deck during the thrilling operation. This is the second rescue at seas Capt. Roberts has made within the last few years. . Astor accompanied by his fiancee, and her father, William H. Force, sailed in the Astor yacht, Noma, yesterday. A half an hour before the yacht weighed anchor Col. Astor and Miss Force were at the office of the Astor estate, 23 West Twenty-sixth street, where, it was said, a marriage settlement of $2,000,000 was made upon the bride-elect. Coi.

BAYMOND AHERN BRINDLEY TELLS HOW HE SET NEW ALTITUDE MARK IN FREEZING AIR Hands Numb From Cold as He Lake Michigan at Chicago, and in Quick Dip to Earth He Gets Air Sickness. Soars Above Special to the Post-Dispatch. of the aviation meet here today. France. By Oscar A. Brindley. AM overjoyed at breaking the record, | as it has been my ambition ever since I took up aeroplaning. The high mark got to be such an obsession around the hangars, but I’ve got the laugh on the other boys now. I started after the world’s record yesterday the minute my Wright bi- plane left the ground at 3:30 p. m. It was an ideal day for climbing, the air being calm above 3000 feet, hardly a breeze blowing. I climbed about 500 feet before I hit a stratum of air that I liked. I stayed there a while, floating around until I was directly over the Hawthorne race track. Then I started to climb. I gave my machine its head and we started. Up and up it went. When I next came to a level angle I was 10,000 feet high and above the old world’s fair grounds. Then I pointed the nose of my machine out into the Lake and climbed against a slight wind. It was terribly. cold out over the lake. Up 10,000 feet it was several degrees below freezing, and with each succeed- ing inch it grew colder. My hands be- came numb, but I took turns holding the controlling lever with one hand, while I warmedithe other against the engine radiator. I saw the water in my drip pan freezing as though it was in the winter, but my engine seemed to be working perfectly, so I Wd not mind. Couldn’t Judge Height T was hard for me to tell how high | I was. Had I known I was only 11,000 feet I could have climbed a coupie of thousand more. Strange as it may seem, it didn’t look as if it were more than 400 or 500 feet to the ground. I could see everything plainly from up behind the clouds, even to the tents on the aviation grounds. When they say I cotldn’t be seen from the grounds because of my being up a couple of miles, I could pick out various buildings I knew in the loop dis- trict and could see the crowds moving ‘about on the grounds, If I had been up only a couple of hundred feet I could not have seen plainer. My hearing wasn't affected in the least, except by the constant drum- ming of the engine, and the light air aid not hurt my eyes or ears. I breathed just as naturally as though I were on the ground. When I canie down I found a couple of blood stains on my ear lobes, probably from bleeding, but I did not feel the strain that must have been on the drums. I am down mainly because I guess- ed I had smashed the record—the ob- ject of my climb—and because it was so terribly cold. I had on a heavy leather jacket and leather gloves, but the cold went through them as though they wére bits of cloth, Trip Didn’t Hurt Him CAME down the 11,000 feet In just 14 minutes. I felt fine until I got to the 8000-foot level, when I became stomach. I had to slow and float until I recovered na Then I glided down a hurry because I feared I \ with ,me that it was almost a joke! CHICAGO, Aug. 19.—Oscar Brindley, who yesterday broke the world’s altitude record in aviation by ascending 11,728 feet, was the popular hero Brindley’s altitude was 1168 feet more than two miles, and 767 feet above the previous high mark, established July 8 last by M. Loridan in Here is Brinkley’s own story of how he set the new mafk: sickness. The quick change from the rare atmosphere to the warmer air prob- ably brought on the iliness, I feel confident I could have climbed two or three thousand feet higher, but I thought I had broken all records, so 'I came down. I was up at the highest altitude about 5:30 o’clock. From 5 until 5:30 o’clock I was climbing steadily. How little the strain affected me is proven by the fact that I was able to pilot my machine back up into the air for an hour cruise when I landed after breaking the record. I haven't felt the slightest ill effects from that lofty trip. Hearst’s Option on the St. Louis Star Shown at Hearing Continued From Page One. Reynolds the prompt acceptance of F'rank’s proposition. Frank is now in New York, where he has been in conference with the Hearst representatives. Hearst is in Europe, but he left the power of at- torney with one of his financial rep- resentatives'to exercise the option as soon as Frank could get control of the Lewis equity. While the diseivfssion was in prog- ress Attorney Haberman declared that unless the Frank offer was ac- cepted Frank would foreclose his mortgage on the Star. He said it would be much more desirable to make an Outright sale of the Lewis equity, as Frank could then get pos- session of the property without liti- gation and delay, and could put through his deal with Hearst within the limit of the option. |PULLS OWN TEETH WITH PAIR OF PLIERS Benbow City Man Saves Dentist Bill and Rids Self of Of- fending Molars. Joseph Biehler, a Benbow City saloon- keeper, had a toothache Friday, but he did not go to a dentist. What was tie use? He had a pair of blacksmith’s pliers, and he was strong enough to pull his own teeth, so he went at it. He made up his mind that two of his teeth were causing the trouble, and he decreed that they should be pulled. With the aid of a mirror and the pain he located one, got a strangle hold on it with the pliers, and pulled. He only increased the pain without removing the cause. He grappled with it again, and one of the offending molars came out. Pausing only long enough to take a. long ‘breath and get a good hold, Biehfer pulled the other one.

Mrs. Corrie Ahern, also years old, is restrained at the home of her mother, Mrs. Hill of 5469 Dres- den avenue. This “wedded-though- parted” drama in real life follows an at St. Charles, Mo., by Justice Beh- rens, against the wishes of the par- ents. her daughter’s elopement, but she thought the only thing a mother coula do under the circumstances was to forgive the young folk and make their lives as pleasant as possible. and full of bumps. they went to Pacific, Mo., thinking that town a county seat and that a marriage license could be obtained. After learning of their error they went to Clayton and a hard-hearted license clerk looked them over care- ully and smiled a cruel smile when they asked for a license.

Ahern was also older and wiser and they readily ob- tained a license. When they re- turned to St. Louis each went to mother and it was not until Saturday morning that their secret was known. Then the elopers were kept confined to their respective homes, but thanks to telphones they could console each other, The boy bridegroom had called his bride 14 times up to 10 o’clock Satur- day morning, with prospects of keep- ing this rate up all day unless the telephone wire breaks. The bride is a granddaughter of the late Gen, A.,P. Hill, a noted offi- cer of the Confederate Army. Ahern’s mother is a wealthy widow. All makes typewriters. $10, $50.

Sharp of this city, who returned here yesterday from New Or- leans, where she went following a quar- rel with Sharp’s second and younger wife. The first Mrs. Sharp last night was a guest again at the Sharp home. “She can stay as long as she wants to,’ said Mrs, Louisa Sharp. “But, I am to be the boss.” Sharp and his first wife, Ann Cather- ine, were parted in the great Chicago fire. Nine vears ago he came to Pitts- burg and married. Ann Catherine lo- cated Sharp through the United States Pension: Bureau. She came here, but found him married. As she had been legally dead many years, she had no standing in court. Sharp, however, took her into his home and for several weeks the two wives lived in the house, the first one as a guest. Quarrels caused Ann Cath- erine to go to New Orleans to live with a son a month ago. Is CUT BY STRANGER. WHO GRABBED HAT “Funny Looking Lid’? Says Man Who Boards Car—He Seizes It, Fight Follows.

The two ports were suggested as rendezvous for, Mrs. Foree and the members of the two families, who will be present at the ceremony. | With an unusual stock of provisions aboard the officers and crew expected to be away from land for a long time. The ice bunkers were filled to capacity, while enough coal was taken to carry the yacht to the Agores in case a trip } to the Mediterranean should be made. There was also a wireless operator on board. 2 One of the interested onlookers at the sailing preparations was ae & Morgan, who was at the landing stage of the New York Yacht Club, waiting for hig daughter and a friend. Mor- gan left for his yacht, the Corsair, before the arrival of the engaged pair. Force was the first of the Astor party to board the yacht, but before he reached the Noma he lost his way on the East River waterfront. A re- porter found him and guided him to the ‘yacht landing. He refused to answer questions about the weddin plans, Nurse With Miss Force. Half an hour later, just as a storm broke, the Astor automobile arrived at the Yacht Club pavilion. Miss Force, attended by a trained nursg, stepped 4 out of the car, carrying a dozen books. Col. Astor had William A. Dobbyn, secretary of the Astor estate, at his side, and the four made haste to reach cover in the pavilion. There Miss Force spent some time fondling Col. Astor’s dog Ignatz. “Does this trip mean an immediate wedding?” Col. Astor was asked. “Now, gentleman, really, you know it is only a pleasure sail, a little recreation and perhaps some fishing in the ound,” he replied. “It is reported that the wedding is to take place at sea.” “Nothing new today. Nothing at all on that subject,’ replied Col. Astor. “As I have said before, only a week-end cruise, with no particular destination,”’ Col. Astor then continued his conversa- tion on the storm, while the captain of the Noma made the launch ready for the party. Col. Astor waved his hand to the newspaper men as the launch pulled out of the slip. Fifteen minutes later the Noma was steaming up the Kast River. Earlier Col. Astor was asked: “Ig it true that you and Miss Force will be married on board the Noma or that you will put into some Connecticut town and be sien by a minister?’ “Nonsense,” be replied. ‘Al . riage talk is very on Eg si, up a fairly good passenger service, but like the other lines running north, was unable to accept goods, This compelled a cessation of fishing operations, and the fishing fleets in the Firth of Forth and on the coast were tied up. The London, Brighton and Southcoast railway and the Southeastern and Chatham road continued sending out trains from Victoria and London Bridge stations but closed the smaller depots such as Cannon street, Holborn and Ludgate Circus and several suburban stations. Although a number of men in the underground tubes system joined the strikers today the companies, with the assistance of their officers an® shop staffs, maintained a service except on the North London railway, an old and very small concern, which suspended operation. The other lines received many applications for work and prom- ised to have their normal schedules in operation this afternoon. General in Dublin. The strikers are meeting with more success outside London. At Birming- ham freight was moved today only with the assistance of strong forces of police and it was feared that disorders would occur. The strike is general in Dublin, where the Unions claim 8 per cent of the employes are out. The expresses from Dublin to Cork and Dublin to Rosslare Harbor have been discontinued and the trains operated today were in the hands of inexperienced men, : In West Wales there was an almost complete stoppage, while in Edinburgh and at ‘other Scottish points the com- Janles experienced the greatest diffi- cuity in keeping their trains moving. Three trains for London Were cancelled as the men refused tg mount the loco- motives. Americans Stranded. Hundreds of Americans booked to sail on ‘the blockaded ships are literally stranded in London. Many of them at- tempted to reach Liverpool and sail minus all their belongings except what they were wearing or could conveniently carry. Today the London steamship of- fices wera besieged by Americans who held tickets oh these ships and for those due to sail today, clamoring for trans- fers to boats sailing from Southampton, now the only port where traffic is not tied up. The boat train for the Hamburg-Almer- ican Kalserin Auguste Victoria got through safely, but Waterloo Station was surrounded by grenadier guards with fixed bayonets and ball cartridges to prevent trouble. The boat train also carried 1000 bags of mail which had been diverted from Liverpool. Today another train will start for Southampton for the American liner Philadelphia and the Atlantic transport Minneapolis will leave Tilbury docks. It is predicted that these will be the last ships leaving until the strike is set- tled, as rumors of a tieup of Southamp- ton port are now getting ominous. Asa result the new Olympic and other boats have been forgotten and the old Phil- adelphia and Minneapolis will be the popular sailings of the season so great is the demand for accommodations, INVESTIGATE OHIO WRECK * Corns removed in 3 min V7 oofter’s pte ha Corn and Bunion Remedy, SPECIAL TRAINS AND BOAT BRING DOCTOR Isaac Untermeyer Amazes Swiss by Amount Spent to Get Phy- sician to Sick Son.

MANN RESOLUTION TABLED , Minority Leader Wished to Stop Legislation at Late Hour Tonight. Tv Asacctated Preas., WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Adjourn- ment of the extra session of Congress at 5 p. m. Tuesday was, virtually agreed Sherman, Senator’ Penrose and Demo- eratic Leader Underwood of the House. The conference resulted in Mr. Pen- rose’s decision to introduce a resolution, providing for adjournment that day. Mr. Underwood agreeing to make every. effort to complete the legislative pro- gtam of the: Democratic House Mon- day. The action closely foliowed a formal announcement on the floor of the House by Underwood that while he could mak« no promise in advance, he saw no rea- gon why adjournment should not be had by Tuesday or Wednesday. Underwood was the storm center of the questions from both Democrats and Republicans regarding the legis- cussion Representative Lenroot of Wisconsin, progressive Republican, announced that. the cotton bill, as amended by the Senate, would re- ceive no support from progressive Re- publicans. Lenroot is a close political ally of Senator La Follette of Wiscon- sin, who voted against the bill in the memorable fight of Thursday, when the Democrat-Ingurgent alliance was broken, “nmderwood Says Republican Leader ~ Mann vf the House pressed Democratic Leader Underwood for a‘ positive assurance as to what he proposed to do when the President vetoed the cotton bill Little, -Mann declared that if the session con- tinued until Tuesday, he would not look for adjournment for two weeks. He ssid it was necessary to know whether to keep the Republican members in town. Underwood can- didly advised him to hold his forces, and indicated that he did not wish to say in advance whether an attempt would be madé to pass the Dill over the President's veto. Garner of Texas (Democrat) in- A sisted the Hqyse should pass the new’ - statehood bill and the cotton bill and adjourn at 11 o'clock tonight. Under- wood said that there was no occa- sion for rushing the important busi- ness, but that it was improbable that there would be any attempt to. over- ride the veto. Underwood was care- ful to avoid committing himsel not to take advantage of any opportunity that might be created at a crucial moment by Republican absenteeism. Republican Leader Mann introduced a joint resolution directing the Vice- ‘President and Speaker of the House to adjourn Congress at 10 o’clock to- ‘night, but this was tabled on motion of Representative Shackleford of Mis- souri by 106 to 66, | Clark on the Floor. Failure of the attempt of the Demo- _. cratic House to override the vetoes Fri- day came in a day filled with stirring incidents. The close of the debate on the motion of Underwood to pass the wool bill over the veto found Speaker Champ Clark, an aspirant for the presidency, ' pleading the cause of his fellow Demo- ' erates from the floor, surrounded by a throng of his colleagues, who cheered him vigorously. The galleries were filled to overflowing and to the Speaker, as he concluded, was accorded a demonstra- tion that for several minutes delayed the roll call. On the motion to pass the wool meas- ‘ure over the veto, there were 227 af- firmative votes, 22 of them insurgent Republicans and one indgpendent Re- ‘publican, while the negative votes were 18. The motion to override the veto} on the free list failed of a two-thirds majority als, the vote being 228 to 127.

Louis Boettger, 23 years old, of 192: engineer at the repair shop, who was pursuing boys on the roof when. Robert fell, was arrested Friday evening, bond of $800. Robert was playing ball on the va- cant lot in the rear of the repair shop with Edward Bray, 2824 Park avenue; John Mulerig, 2629 Caroline street; Roy and George Allred, 2708 Caroline street; Eugene Morissey, 2224 Rutge: street, and Elisworth Staver, 2349 Hick- ory street. Ball Knocke~ on Roof. The ball was knocked on the roof. Robert and two or three others climbed up after it. When they saw the engineer coming the others slid down a telephone pole in reach from the roof. Robert fell forty feet to the ground. He was taken to the office of Dr. Benjamin Shanklin, 1006 South Jefferson avenue, who had him‘ taken to the hospital. Mrs. Hannah Staver, of 2349 Hickory street, told the police that she saw Boettger running after Robert on the roof, but she did not know whether he was trying to strike the boy or to catch him. Mrs. Adele Larkins of the same address said that after Robert fell Boettger went into the building and did not come out again to see how badly the boy was hurt. Mrs. Birdie Busch, of 2349 Hick- ory street, says Boettger had a stick in his hand. Policemen Peters and Eller arrested | Boettger and took him to the Soulard Station. He at first denied having been on the roof. When witnesses confront- ed him he admitted pursuing the boys, but said he was not within twenty feet of Robert. The boy is unable to give his version. His injury, has destroyed his memory of the occurrence. The doctors say he has retroactive amnesia. or loss of memory. His condition is very serious. 3 BUILDINGS RAZED IN NORMANDY FIRE Postmistress in Suburb Saves Mail—Bucket Brigade Saves Church. Fire at Normandy late Friday de- stroyed Edward H.

The burning buildings were near St. Anne's Catholic Church, which was saved by a bucket brigade of boys and girls, or- ganized by the pastor, the Rev. Ste- phen Kendrick. The fire started in the Hobelman store, probably from a gasoline explo- re Mys. Hobelman, who was in the above the store, fainted when the fire started, and was carried out by John Johnson, a negro employe. Miss Kathar =McSwiney, the Post- mistress, saved al) the mail.

All the priests of the St. Louis diocese received Saturday copies of a letter written by Archbishop Glennon to the Rev. A. V. Garthoeffner, diocesan su- perintendent of Catholic schools, com- mending the new Catholic high schools that are to be opened next month in St. Louis. In an address to the Catholic Par- ochial Teachers’ Institute at Christian Brothers’ College Friday, the Arch- bishop emphasized his approval of the plan. He said the high school centers would be. expected to take a leading part in the upbuilding of Catholic edu- cation in the St. Louis diocese. The Archbishop’s letter-is as follows: Reverend and Dear Sir—I desire again to express my hearty approval of your efforts in the promotion of secondary education, and particular- ly in the purpose you have now be- : fore the Catholic schools and the Cathofi- public, of forming Catholic high school centers. As we are all agreed in regard to the value and hecessity of Catholic education, it becomes a logical duty to perfect the system that bears that name; to strengthen, link by link, the entire system from the kinder- garten to the university. ‘You have already placed before the public the need of establishing high schools as one of the most important links in the ch-'in. You have shown its dou- ble importance—namely, because of the Catholic training it imparts on the one hand and the urgent neces- sity of Catholic pupils to obtain such a training in these particularly try- ing years of their lives. Your pur- pose to have high school centers es- tablished will satisfy the need we have of such and will do so in :.n economic manner. Forget Parish Lines, It is better that we should have three or four well-equipp high _ schools than to have 12 or 14 indi- vidual parishes burden themselves with an extensive staff of high schol teachers and necessarily have only a limited number of pupils for them to teach. I wish to go on record as approving your plan and commend- ing the same to the kindly consid- eration of the parish priests and the school directors of the city. We ought, as earl; as we can, to realize that our Catholic high schoolg are one and al] a part of a grand Cath- olic system of training; that it is “one faith, one Lord, one baptism,” preachéd in the Catholic churches, which also should be the keynote of instruction in our schools; and that oneness should be not alone of faith, but of system as .well; to perfect that system we must forget for the moment parish lines and may even forget diocesan lines and make the sacrifices (and .aey vill be many) that are necessary to insure the survival of that system which stands for the, survival of all_ truth and the permanency of our civiliza- tion. Sincerely yours, JOHN J. GLENNON, Archbishop. Starts With Three Schools. There “are to be three of the high schools, one for boys and two for girls. The one for boys will be called the Kenrick High School and there will probably be an affiliation between it and Kenrick seminary. It. will be in the school building of SS. Peter avd Paul's at Eighth street and Allen avenue and will be taught by the Brothers of St. Mary. The ones for the girls will be cailed the Kain and the Rosatti. One will be in St. Teresa's, Grand avenue and North Market street, to be taught by the Sisters of St. Jo- seph, and the other in St, Francis de Sales’ school building, Gravois and Ohio avenues, to be taught by the Schoo!

Harrington at Union Station, Saturday morning, that he had a peach stone in his throat. He said that while sucking the stone Friday afternoon he swallowed it. Harrington sent him to the city dis- pensary and from there he was sent to the city hospital. The physicians said that it was not likely that the stone was still lodged in the throat, but that when such a large object passes through the esophagus it leaves a soreness which causes the person to imagine that it is still there. An X-ray photo- graph will be taken to locate the stone and then an operation will be performed to remove it. MISS HEARD IS ENGAGED

Special to the Post-Dispatch, CHICAGO, Iil., Aug. 19.—While Mrs. Myrtle Reed McCullough. novelist, who wrote under her maiden name. lay dead in her home here, as a result of poison taken with suicidal Intent, her husband, James S. McCullough, apparently ignor- ant of her tragic end, sent her a tele- gram last night conveying love greet- ings from Appleton, Wis., and telling her he would be home soon. McCullough, who is a real estate bro- ker, left home early Thursday morning, saying he was going to Milwaukee. Late Thursday night Mrs. McCullough was found dead in her room by a maid. Mrs. McCullough left a note in which ghe hinted that ill treatment by -her husband, who, a@ year ago, was called the “model husband’’ by her, caused Her to end her life. Her father also de- clared that his. son-in-law’s habits had broken his daughter's heart, The maid said McCullough came home Jate Wednesday night under the influence of liquor, and that when he departed Thursday morning without bidding his wife good-by, Mrs. McCullough appear- ed hurt and was despondent all day. That she committed suicide was the verdict of a Coroner's jury which held an inquest at the McCullough home. Her tragic death in her home, which had been termed by her friends ‘“Par- acisé Flat,’”’ is something her most in- timate friends cannot explain. Close friends and associates of McCullouzga declared they were unable to under- atand the note left by Mrs. McCullough, which cast a reflection upon her hus- band’s attitude toward her.

LIVED TOGETHER 4 YEARS Mrs. Henry. Powitzky Accuses Mate of Violent Temper and Indignities. id Alleging that her husband has a vio- lent temper, refused to allow her rela- tives to visit her, and grudgingly gave her money to run the house, Mrs. Artha Powitzky has filed a suit tn the Cir- cult Court for a divorce from Henry S. Powitzky of 3555 Longfellow boule- vard, president of the Powltzky-Collins Woodwork Co. On one occasion, the petition alleges, Powitzky tore a telephone from the wall of their home in a fit of temper when a friend called Mrs. Powitzky up to congratulate her on her birthday, At other times, according to the petition, Powitzky grew furious when relatives visited his wife and talked so loud that it aroused the neighbors and humili- ated her. The day before their separa- tion, July 23, the petition states, Pow- itzky struck Mrs. Powitzky’s sister and drove her fromi the house, Mrs. Powitzky alleges that her hus- band is wealthy, and that although he gave thousands of dollars a year to his married daughter, and paid numerous debts for his son, he Barely gave her enough money to buy family neces- sities. The Powitzkys were married April 25, 1907, and separated July 23, 1911. Since the separation Mrs. Powitzky has been staying at the home of her sister, Mrs. Richard Dawson, 3628 Cleveland av- enue, After the divorce suit was filed she departed oh a visit to friends and could not be found at the Dawson res-} idence. George B. Webster, Powltzky’s at- torney, to whom he referred inquiries, said Saturday that his client denied the allegations in Mrs. Powitzky’s peti- tion. He said that the sister whom Powitzky is charged with striking is Mrs. Dawson, with whom the wife is now living. He stated that Mrs. Daw- son stayed at’ their home so late one night that -he was compelled to ask her to leave, and that Mrs. Dawson created such a disturbance that a report was made to the police. Mrs. Powitzky formerly was the wife of Malcolm Ulch, from whom she was divorced in. 1899. Ulch conducted a liv- ery stable on Lafayette avenue. In her petition for a divorce from Ulch she al- leged that her husband was quarrelsome and called her vile names. The allega- tion was made that Ulch left her and went to Texas, where he was granted a divorce form her without her knowl- edge, and that she had caused the di-

| varce decree to be set aside before fil- ing her suit in the St. Louis court.

COMPLETING THE RECORD. Consistency of a sort, required of President Taft the veto of the Farmers’ Free List bill yes- terday. A truer consistency would have dictated its signature. Reciprocity was a Taft measure. It aroused the honest apprehensions of some farmers along the northern boundary. In recompense to them this bill was promptly introduced in the House, reducing taxation upon many articles which farm- ers buy. It is complementary to reciprocity. The two measures should go together. Mr. Taft has never spoken as sharply of the tariff on articles covered by. the free list bill as he has of the “indefensible” taxes on wool and woolens. But he knows, as we all should know, that nineteen farmers out of twenty have never benefited by the tariff, since they sell their sur- plus crops in world-wide competition; while every ° farmer is robbed by tariff-protected trusts in his capacity as a consumer. And to the farmer no less than to the consumer of woolens is the President held by his Chicago pledge of Dec. 3, 1910: “We are bound to promote the prompt elimination of instances of injustice in the tariff law.” : However, the President hds made his choice. He has refused the chance offered him by Con- gress to lower taxation at once. He will now veto every tariff bill brought before him. This Congress has little more to do except to complete the record by passing such other tariff bills as , are pending and letting them meet their certain fate. , Upon the record that is now being made will largely turn the result of the 1912 election—to be decided by 15,000,000° American voters, most of whom are “ultimate consumers.” == * The fact that $7,000,000 of the city’s $10,000,000 revenue is paid out in salaries is the principal reason why the Kiel-Kreismann fight for control of municipal] jobs is interminable. i i i — A COURT CUSTOM.

Some 400 persons have journeyed from st} Charles to Clayton to testifily in the contempt proceedings against the officers of the company reducing St. Louis garbage. Three days of the court’s time have been consumed in the effort, from the mass of testimony offered, to determine a plain question of fact—whether the company E eb or has not violated the terms of an injunction issued against it last January, by creating a smell which is a nuisance. It would seem that this question of fact, could be determined more quickly, easily and conclu- sixely if the Judge would take a half day off, go to St. Charles and smell for himself. But doubt- less such a procedure would be irregular. It might even strike at the foundations of our judicial system, which rests in part on some an- cient and very queer ideas. s -=— ~~ Shwe **MADE-IN-ST. LOUIS’’ EXHIBITION. Last year St. Louis manufactured $329,000,000 worth of goods for the use of its citizens and for distribution ip its territory, which contains 30,-

~. 000,000 soulg in a radius of 500 miles. Within a year the efty has added 50 new plants and fac- tories, which means that this year’s Made-in-St., Louls Exhibition, which opens at the Coliseum Monday, will break all. previous records. It will prove. to the world that it is no empty boast that “St. Louis Has the Goods.” The increase in the valu» of St. Louis manu- factured products in 10 years, since 1900, has been 69 per cent, which is a greater percentage of in- crease than that of any other city of its class. It has 49 shoe factories, employing about 20,000 people. Its five big car factories also employ 10,000 and put out an annual product worth $70,000,000. It has 92 factories making gcods for its dry goods stores, which sell more than $70,- €50,000 worth in a year. Its hirdware stores, largely supplied by its own factories, sell $42,- 000,000 worth of goods in a year. So of other im- portant things of all kinds necessary to human life, comfort and happiness. St. Louis amply justifies its existence to all thai vast territory which depends upon it for-supplies. But ft is not enough that a city should make things in profusion. Tne quality is as important as the quantity. And it is to prove. the quality that the annual “Made-in-St. Louis” Exhibition has been established. In a measure it may be said that the city’s trade, represented by a freight tonnage, by rail and river, of more than 76,000,- 000 tons a year, attests the quality ofeSt. Louis goods.

City Comptroller Taussig’s figures show that the appropriations for food in the city institutions have not been used up. In the case of every item there was less money spent for fodd than was appropriated. On the Investigating Cofmmittee’s visit to the city hospital Thursday everything was found in good condition, including Supt. Baur’s palatial apartment. It is clear that if there was poor food and in- sufficient food it was not because of the lack’ of money to buy it. It is equally clear that if there was filth and dirt and ‘vermin it was not because those were necessary or unavoidable. The inescapable conclusion is that these de- fects and deficiencies were due to bad manage- ment or no management. If the management had been good, more money would have been spent for. food and more food and better food would have been supplied. If the management had been efficient, alert and capable, the filth and vermin would have been done away with as effectively before the investigation was started as after it was under way; there would have been no filth or vermin at all. : The $225,000 additional appropriation asked for would not mark the difference between hunger and plenty, between bad food and good food or between dirt and cleanliness if it were to be used for those particular purposes, instead of raising wages. It might, under careful, capable manage- ment mark the difference between what is neces- sary and what is desirable. It might relieve em- ployes of burdens too great, but can an adminis- tration which was hopelessly inefficient on $750,- 000 a year be made even hopefully efficient on $975,000 a year? Will a hospital commissioner ena a hospital board who were blind to dirt, vermin, bad food, rancid butter, rotten eggs, neglected patients and suffering and abused inmates on $750,000 a year, be able to see them on $975,000 a year? If nothing is done but to add $225,000 a year to the wages appropriation, what is to prevent the mantle of secrecy from again being drawn over the institutions? What assurance is there that presently more money will not be asked to correct more evils? Hospital Commissioner Morfit and the Hos- pital Board are failures both by confession and by proof. If they do not resign voluntarily, their resignations should be requested. = = * =a And, moreover, Mr. Taft believes that the Tariff Board is. the only scientific method of delaying tariff revision, so there is no reason why he and the Globe-Democrat should not rally around each other.

COCOANUT GROVE’ S PROTEST. The cry that arose from Cocoanut Grove, on Natural Bridge road, against the extraordinary labors of the St. Louis Society for the Relief and Prevention of Tuberculosis was to be expected. The society is trying*to save a number of little children from contracting the white plague and help Ahem to get a public school education. It provides trained nurses for these little ones, bathes them, feeds them and cares for them in almost a maternal way, all of which is an aston- ishing innovation and departure from CocoafPut Grove’s customs. In one of his miracle stories H. G. Wells tried to show how an angelic being, suddenly fallen into a typical English village. found himself con- fronted at every turn by the selfishness and cow- ardice of its inhabitants. His nature prompted him to evgry kind of altruistic and helpful work, which earned for him the deadly hatred of those who misunderstood his motiv:s. The work of the anti-tuberculosis society in its attempt to save these St. Louis children is so altruistic as to be almost angelic. But it is the sort of work that the twentieth century approves, even if it threatens to bring what is possibly unpleasant In that case one promptly becomes medieval. Fear and ig- norance close the fountains of pity in’ Cocoanut Grove as elsewhere,

Thirteen members of the New York Live Poul- try Dealers’ Protective Association were sen- tenced each to three months’ imprisonment by Judge Rosalsky. In imposing sentence the Court said: The defendants have been convicted of the crime of conspiracy to control and monopolize a food product—a crime thet is mean and in- sidious. They have masqueraded as merchants of good repute while common morality was stifleqg in their despicable greed. They have waxed rich at the expense of poor and helpless consumers. They combined with the corrupt intent to drive from the field all who were not in sympathy with them, and the jury had no difficulty in fihding a verdict against them. Selfish aggrandizement was their motive, regardiess of the law. When, in 1906, they formed their combination, they controlled 956 per cent of the product they intended to monopolize, and they ruthlessly crushed out competition in protecting their power and con- trolling their monopoly. The imposition of a fine would absolutely destroy the efficacy of the verdict rendered by the jury. A prison sentence, even with the misery it would bring the families of these men, would be vastly more effective. No time should be lost in finding a place on the Federal bench for Judge Rosalsky. Men of his courage and determination should be put ‘where their courage and determination will do the most good. ~ President Reber of the Board of Public Im- provements is wasting a deal of valuable time in planning to add two stories to the City Hall; he}

W. S. Stuyvesant is right as to need for public links, but wrong as to Triple A, That little hilly, tree-blockédd, nine-hole course is already public and crowded to its limit during those hours of each afternoon when business mén and scholars find time to field the festive shinny club, and all Saturday afternoons and from/early morn to noon on Sundays*there is usually a waiting list

“of folks who don't hesitate to pay the paltry 6 cents or so a day it costs them to belong to the club, an organization that is so nearly public ever failed to find a welcome there. Incidentally, W. S. might study the other points which make the other part of the park best for the public links. For instance, accessibility, Triple A is too far from the cars. And the only cars which run through that section are the Mar- ket streeters, the infrequent Taylor transfer sys- tem and a sprinkling of Laclede cars which per- collate to the Highlands Sundays. The University cars run chose to the beautiful level area in the Other part of the park, where the links could be laid out with everything that would make them attractive for average players. They would be “on the level” in every sense of the word. No hills, no trees of consequence, no driving out of an established athletic’ organization which has already done a lot for the public both in golf and tennis. Eighteen holes, sand-pit hazards (the very best, according to authorities, and used al- most exclusively at Jackson Park), the remnants of the lagoon for an ideal water hazard and a couple of bunkers built where they would do the most good. Hills are bad, especially on public links. Too hard to climb, making the procession of golfers move too slow. Public links must be built to accommodate the largest possible number of average or less-than- average players. Let the experts go to Glen Ecro |for their stunts of bogey-play and_hill-climbing. For an ordinary citizen the exertion of playing 9 or 18 comparatively easy holes, without leg- ging it up and down 15 or 16 declivities and chas- ing the elusive red dot through the deep grass, is quite enough. 1 = Scald the Garbage Can. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, I wish to thank the editor for the suggestion to scald garbage cans with boiling water. Hav- ing added a cup of salsoda, the offensive odor “was also removed, also pouring the same where any stale water might have run on bricks in the alley. Now that this good work has been start- ed, why not have a day that everybody will act and, as the rat-killing day, let one big day come for a general war on flies? Ten moments after I read last night’s article, my garbage can.was boiled. I hope thousands of others will do the same every week. E. DETRICH, : A. Cofrection. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatg¢h. While reading last Sunday’s Post-Dispatch I noticed an article which stated that when I was married I changed my name to Haines. I beg to say that statement is untrue. Therefore I would like to have you publish that at no time have 3 changed my name from Stankey to Haines. H. A. STANKEY, 1837 St. Louls avenue, East St. Louis, I), To Prevent Auto Accidents. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch I agree péffectly with R. R. A, in regard to the prevention of automobile accidents to pedestri- ans, but have little hope of any remedy ever be- ing applied. Nearly every week such accidents would be prevented. by the attachment of a band of small, silver-toneg grelots to the front part of the machine. These little bells make but little more noise than a silver chain, but they are never silent when there ts any motion and can be distinctly heard at a distance of a hundred feet. They can be obtained at the hardware stores at a cost of about 60 cents. Such an attachment would make progress through the streets much easier for the automobile and would add a real charm to the machine. Owing to the distressing nature of these acci- dents, I am astonished that some such remedy has not been adopted. We wait for Chicago or New York to start it. E. F. MALONEY. Ambulance Service, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Since the subject of our city hospital taking proper care of its patients has arisen, I would like to mention that in connection with same there is another apparently small matter that should be attended to. That is the ambulances. I cannot understand why (when an ambulance is sum- moned) they should send a policeman to take care of the injured person. Would it not be better to seng a surgeon or physician? I know of one instance where @ young man died in the ambulance, I being the only one ‘in the am- bulance to care for him on the ‘way to the hos- pital, — Possibly the immediate attention of a physt- clan would have been of great benefit in his case, and there are numerous others. R. E.. THOMPSON, Individuality in Fashions. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatcn. I see by the late papers that women in differ- ent parts of the world are becoming their own fashion dictators! What a glorious thing it would be for the whole world of women to fol- low suit and dictate their own fashions. It -would be the greatest opportunity for women to show tndividnellty and save millions at the same time. If they had any pride they would not imitate someone else forever and ever! Individuality in dress would be the most interesting thing in the world; there would be constant guessing as to what people were going to wear. There could be no end to the different styles. All the fash- fons of the past could be brought forth and new and becoming ones invented and all be in “style,” The leading women of the world shoulda “start the ball a rolling” by bringing forth past fashions and inventing new ones in opposition to the Paris fashion dictators, who laugh at the imita- tors. a.

UNENDING PROCESSION OF IDIOTS From Life. One would think people would get tired of being killed in automobiles crossing railroad tracks. It seems such an avoidable manner of death. It may be true that the same person is never killed twice in that way, but that fs no help. The experience of the dead ought ty teach the living. Apparently it doesn’t. Every motorist must know from repeated and re-repeated demon+ stration that when a motor car and a train of steam cars dispute at a cross- icg as to which shall pass first, the motor car invariably gets the worst of it. And yet, week after week and month after month, the argument goes on and contestants on the motor car side pro- ceed to the hospital or the cemetery.

POLITENESS. The movement to make politeness in public places compulsory is altogether too new to hope for anything from it locally for another two or three years. Like the recent revolt from the Repub- lican party, these things usually cross the Eads Bridge and take quiet, but none the jess the firm possession of the city when the rest of the country has taken up something else. Meanwhile, we shali have to get on the best we can with what goes for po- Hteness hereabouts. In the matter of men knocking the women down in the rush for car seats; why couldn't the company let women exclusively on the front? With the funnel collector, it would be just as easy to get the nici} there as anywhere else.

Novelist Says Roles Have Been Reversed by Change in Industrial Conditions—An Interview for . the Post-Dispatch By Marguerite M. Marshall. rs é 7 ITH the present-day ar- rangements, any mai y vf should censider himself * highly complimented if a woman consents to marry him or thinks very seriously of him in that respect.” Thompson Buchanan seemed in earnest when he said this, for he flecked the ashes from the tip of his cigarette and uncrossed his kneesinavery decided manner. His feet settled firmly on the floor and he stopped roeking. Mr. Buchanan, author of ‘‘A Woman’s Way,” “Judith Triumphant,” ‘Castle Comedy” and other pleasing books, looks to be a contented bachelor in his apartment. He has his own ideas about love, marriage and men and women. “You see,’ he continued a trifle less seriously, ‘“‘it would seem that the way the world is run today it is producing a lot of loveless women. There is a very great deal outside of mere man for her to think of and she seems to welcome the relief. Man in the calcula- tions of the modern, advanced woman is @ very smal) figure. He seems to belong on the right hand side of the decimal point instead of the larger place on the left hand side that he used to occupy. In fact, woman is so inde- pendent of man, as far as money is concerned, that if she marries him at all it is because she loves him, not be- cause she needs his support. oN OW, I am not speaking of the woman who is resourceless, but of that fine example of American wom- anhood who moves abreast of the times. thinks for herself instead of simply feel- tng with her emotions, and knows just about what she does and does not want fm this world. “Maybe some of the women of today @re becoming loveless, but the vast ma- fority of them have just arrived at that state of living where they can assert the things that women have thought and felt for generations, but have never before been in a position to déclare. “There are many women whose atten- tion is so absorbed by business that they give little thought to affections unless they come naturally in the way. There are other women who have taken to suffrage and such things just ex- actly as the old maid used to take to the matter of missionary work. These women do not care to marry, but the reason there are more of them to be found now lies in the fact that women are so independent of men that they don't have time to marry until they get ready. and can be honest about their thoughts. “In earlier times the woman married that she might escape an old age in some charitable institution. She made herself a slave to the household and worked nine times as hard married as those of today unmarried. Today the woman who has been brought up to work generally has a snug [ittle ‘bank account. This is a duty she feels she owes to herself and a protection against the fate the others dreaded. She doesn’t object to being looked upon as a bach- elor woman, and she Is so interested in the human things of the day that her intellect instead of becoming dry and useless grows and increases with her age; she always has good friends and a happy time. “TI faney that many women have be- come rather cynical about marriage in the present day, for everything seems to be in a very unsettled condition. Be- yond a doubt !t is because of the great change in woman’s position in the world. Men are not quite used to it. They don’t know what to make of women who are not glad to marry them under any circumstances, MAN has to bea pretty good sort to hope to marry the right kind of a woman these times. Until he can prove himself up to the mark there isn’t much use in his going courting. A woman demands more than good looks good clothes and a bank account. “The reason women seem to be less filled with romance and love today its because they love with their minds when they love. They have but lit- tle of the silly emotional ideas of the young girls of long ago. Love, mar- riage and divorce are discussed freely and openly in the majority of famfl- les and young girls do not forget these things, but think of them more than the parents really suppose. Seeing and hearing of such things and knowing so much of unhappy marriage, they decide to cast the die in favor of jerk, freedom and happi- ness rather than on the side of mar- riage, shattered ideals and a divorce. That is why I say that a man may feel mightily complimented if a wom- an says she will marry him, because the woman makes a study of men and their doings and is pretty wary of them when it comes to saying ‘For better or for worse.’ OU know men used to do the se- lecting, the courting and the proposing, and how proud the girl did feel when engaged or courted. If the men only realized it the woman does most of the selecting nowadays. It is the woman who looks at the man and makes the choice. “The woman now realizes how inde- pendent she really is of financial aid of man, and no longer can a man send his pocketbook courting for him. His brain must be as full of interest for the fair one as his pocketbook used to be of money. “Of course, you must remember, I am not speaking of the women of the, so- ciety where the women have nothing to occupy their minds and nothing to do save spend their money or the money some one else has earned. Those women are not representative of this country. “These are not the kind of women I mean. I am speaking of the woman of the fine mind, who has arrived in busi- —— and who considers, marriage so serious a proposition that she finds it. her duty to stay unmarried until she fs pretty certain of the step she is taking. “When the woman of today puts aside her work or her pursuits of any kind long enough to think of a man and marriage, you may be pretty cer-

tain that she loves him, and she will handle the situation with all her fine business acumen and all of the love that comes from a fine brain anda heart that is steady and true.”

Love and Courtesy Written for the Post-Dispatch By Betty, Vincent. HUNDRED novels (most of A them written by women, I am sorry to say) have for their hero the sort of man whom a self- respecting girl ought not to want to touch with a pair of tongs. He is the sort of person who is gsiangily known as “a man with a e In other words, he has lived the kind of life and mingled with the kind of associates that ought to bar him out of decent society. In the novels he usually wins the love of gome sweet, pure young girl, winning ‘her in spite of the attentions of doz- of clean, straight suitors. We are all, mentally, ae what read. And the impressionable whe knows nothing of the world too apt to take her ideas of life from books, and to believe anything that is in print is true. It is to such girls I am writing today. You wil) find marily men whose reputations are emirched, whose lives have been, rot- ten, who » pasts are like those of your novel weroes. Don’t imagine for an instant that there is any charm or glamor about such men. They are not even G@angerous. They are merely disgusting. Let them alone, as you would let alone any loathsome and uninteresting animal. This ol14 world is still full of clean, honest, strong men who believe in goodness and who are fit sweethearts for any girl. The other Bort of man simply does not exist—for you. “Mar- rying a man to reform him” is about as safe and sane as to pet a mad dog in the hope your kindness will make him ashamed to snap at you. * Another Man. G. writes: “I have been paying attention to a girl a year young- think we ought to marry now?” I think you would be wiser to wait. If your love is the real think it will stand the test and $14 a week is a pretty small income for housekeeping. A Matter of Etiquette. ° W. G. writes: ‘“‘Would {ft be ® proper to ask a young woman on whom I have frequently called, and who seems to like me, for her photo- graph? After I have been calling on a girl should I say, every time, that I have enjoyed the call?’’ ' I think it would be perfectly proper for you to ask for her photograph, if you know her well. To express your pleasure after an evening spent in a girl’s society is always the courteous thing and courtesy is never wasted. A Lovers’ Quarrel. L. writes: “Recently a very good © friend of mine asked me to go out with him. I failed to keep the appoint- ment. Now he is very angry and won’t speak to me. I like him and want to be friends. Please advise me.” Write him a little note anologizing for breaking the engagement. No gen- tleman will fail to accept such an apolo- ey. Friends or Fiancee? J G. writes: “Some friends of mine © “asked me to their wedding recep- tion without extending an invitation to my fiancee, as they did not know of my] will engagement. When I told them, one man volunteered to call on my fiancee with a@ personal invitation.

By E. Phillips Oppenheim.

CHAPTER XXVI. At Bay HE entrance of two persons into | the room, apart from its aston- ishing significance to us, seemed to excite a certain amount of interest amongst the ordinary throng. My lady of the turquoise wore a dark-blue closely fitting gown, which only'a Paris tailor could have cut, 2 large and striking hat, and a great bunch or red roses in the front of her dress. But, after all, it was upon her companion, not upon her, that our re- gard had riveted. He was dressed with ‘the neat exactitude of a Frenchman of fashion. He wore a red ribbon in his buttonhole.° His white hair and mous- taches were perfecly arranged. He leaned heavily upon a stick, and he had the appearance of a man prematurely aged, as though by an illness or some great suffering. His tone; as he turned to his companion, was courteous enough but querulous. ; ‘“‘My dear,” he said, “‘this place {s full of draughts. We must find a table over there by the palm.” He pointed with his stick, and it was just at this moment that Louis, round- ing the corner from a distant part of the room, came face to face with them. Once before during the last 24 hours I ad been struck with the pallor of Louis’ expression, ‘This time, he stood quite still in the middle of the floor, as though he had seen a ghost! He was close to a pillar, and I saw his hand suddenly go out to it as though in search of support. His breath was com- ing quickly. From where ! sat I could see the little — y sweat breaking ut upon his forehead. . “Monsieur!” he exclaimed. He gave them a table not far away from mine. The memory of his face as he preceded them down the room never left me. I glanced instinctively towards Delora. His back was turned towards the entrance of the restaurant, and he had apparently seen nothing. Felicia, fon the contrary, sat as though she were turned to stone, I saw her lean over and whisper to her companion. “Who is the man: ee asked. aH.

an. Fear had come suddenly, and she was haggard. ‘We will go at once!’’ she answered. “You are very kind. I came to con- front Louis and that other. I came be- cause I would have them understand who it was that had ruined their plans, because they made use of me—of Bar- tot and me—and threw us aside like gloves that were finished with. But it was a foolish thing to do, Monsieur. I see that, and I thank you now for your warning.’’ She gathered her things together for her departure, and teaned across to- wards her companion. What she said to him I do not know, for I returned to my place. ‘They will not eat,’’ I whispered to Lamartina:>¢*Tell me, who is the man?” ‘Hush!’ ,Juamartine said. ‘Look there!”. .. « Apparéntly’ angry words had been passing betWeen Felicia and Delora. She had -rigen to her feet, notwith- standing his efforts to detain her, swept past my table with scarcely a glance, and made Nér way towards where the two latest arrivals were sitting. She stooped down towards the man, and talked to him‘ earnestly for several mo- ments. All the titne he looked at her with the puzzled half-vacant expression of a child who is confronted with sqome- thing which it does not understand. Delora had risen to his feet, and stood nervously clutching the serviette in his hand. Delora glanced at his watch, and then at the clock. Finally he crossed the room to where his niece was standing, and laid his nand upon the man’s shoulder. “Ferdinand,” he said, “I am glad to seo that you are better. Come up to my rooms for a few minutes. We must have a talk.” At the. sound of his voice something seemed to come back to the face of the older man. He rose slowly to his feet. I could see his white fingers trembling, but 1 could see his eyes svddenly fil with:a new and stronger light. “You!’’ he exclaimed. ‘Yes, I am here to talk to you! It had better be at once! Lead the way!’’ I saw Delora look towards the lady of the turquoises. Apparently he made some remark which I failed to over- hear. ‘“This ladv ts nry companicn,” I heard the other say. “She has been very kind to me~—kinAies, I am afraid, us a strang- er, than others have been on whom I should have relied. She will accom- pany us. She does not leave me.” ~ Lamartine and I went out close upon their heels. “A new move, Louis?” I asked, as I pastcd. “The last, Monsieur,’’ Louis answered, with a bow. CHAPTER XXVII. The Unexpected HE entrance to the Milan Court was small and unimposing, com- pared with the entrance to the hotel proper. I reached it to ’ {ind some confusion reigning. A tall, gray-bearded man was talking anx- iously to the hall porter. Felicia, stand- ing a little apart, was looking around with an air of bewilderment. My ladv of the turquoises was standing by the side of the lift, with her arm drawn through her companion’s. Lamartine no sooner saw the “ace of the mun who was in conversation with the hall porter than he sprang forward. “Your Excellency!’’ he exclaimed, The Ambassador turned quickly to- wards him. “Where is Delora?’’ he asked. “He was here but five seconds ago,”’ Lamartine answered. ‘“‘He must hav left the door as ‘you entered it!’ The man who was “prec with my lady of the turquoises turned suddenly round. “Delora!” he.exclaimed. “That is my vame! I am Ferdinand Delera! My brother, Maurice, ‘was here @& moment ago. You are or V are you not?” he continued. “You ‘must re- member me!” % The Ambassador grasped him by the and. “My dear Delora,”’ he said. “of course I do! What has been the meaning of all this pe ae ne stepped wig torward. “Can't you see what it all means?” he : “Ferdinand : here ar- n \ to England. There, through reason or shrew h some cause,—-who knows'?—he falis ill. There comes to London Mau- ri with plaving. i ‘that it was not Ferdinand himself.

“The Heritage of the Desert’ by Zane Grey, which is the next novel in this series and will be- gin next Monday, is a action, in which men virile romance, full of are suaayed by strong, primitive motives, facing death carelessly. The tale overflows with exciting happenings, not the least of which is the taming of the splen- did wild horse, Silvermane—one of the great horses of fiction. Yet it is more than an ex- citing novel. Every motive is so genuine, all the people are so convincing, the spell of the desert is so insistent that the reader soon loses the sense of reading a book in the sheer hun.an in- terest of the drama. it that you have let your brother in- tervene? Did you not understand how secret your mission was to be ?—how important?” The man shook his head slowly. “T am sorry,’ ne said, ‘I have: been ill. I know nothing. There was an ac- cident in Paris. I have no papers any longer. Maurice has them all.’ My lady of the turquoises plunged into the conversation, _. pig , “But it has been a wicked conspir- acy!’ she cried. ‘‘Monsfeur here,” she added, clutching hie arm, “was drugged and poisoned. Since then he has been like a child, He was left to-die, but I found him,’ I brought: him'-here. And meanwhile, that wicked brother has been playing his part,—using even his name.,’’ I went to Felicia. * “Felicia,” I said, “it is you who can clear this up. The time has come when you must speak.”’ Felicia was standing with her hands clasped to her head, looking from one to the other of the speakers as though she were trying in vain to follgw the sense of what they said. At my words she turned to me a little piteously. She was beginning to understand, but she had not realized the whole truth yet. ‘The lady over there,” she said, point- ing to my lady of the turquoises, ‘‘has spoken the truth. Uncle Ferdinand was ill when he arrived in Paris. He stayed with us—that is, my uncle Maurice and I—in the Rue d@’Hauteville. He seemed to get worse all the time, and he was worried because of some business in London which he could not attend to. Then it was .arranged that my Uncle Maurice should take his place and come over hére, only no one was to et! was secret business for the Brazillian Government. I do not.

It was hateful, but they all said that it was necessary.” A motor drew up outside. The Ghi- nese Ambassador stepped out with more haste than I had ever seen him use, and bv his side a man in dark clothes and silk hat, who from the first I sus- ted to be a bank manager. The razilisn Minister welcomed them on the threshold. ‘ “You. are looking for Delora?”’ he ex- claimed. The Chinese Ambassador looked around at the Httle circle. His face was emotionless, yet he spoke with a haste which was unusual. “Tt is true that I seek him,” he said. “This morning he has cashed a chetk for two hundred thousand pounds. I do not understand. There is a part of our bargain which he has not kept.’” A gleam of intelligence filitt into the face of the newly discovered De- lora. -He stepped forward. “Tt is in order,’”’ he said. “You have taken over from my brother, who repre- sents the Brazilian Government, two new battleships.” “That is so,” His Excellency an- swered, “but I want the indemnity of your Ambassador.’’ “I cannot give it you,” the Ambas#ga- dor declared, “nntil I have received the money.’ ‘“‘Where is Delora?’’ come one asked, We looked around.

Felicia busied herself tending to him. Then «a struck me. I opened the door ef the further bed chamber softly and stood to face with Delora. There was a quick flash, and I looked inte the revolver. —— Ww \ foro plas “It is exactly as I have I knew from his face that he had for- fotten the other lift. He snatched up his hat and disappeared. I returned to the sitting room, and, although I had made no promise, the consciousness of my escape kept me silent as to having seen him. Felicia was sitting on the sofa, talking to her uncle. My lady of the turquoises, with a triumphant smile —— her ips, was o¢gcupying the easy- r, Felicia rose at once and drew me to the window. I passed my arm around her waist. “Felicia, dear," I said, ‘let them fight this matter out between them. It is nothing to do with us. You are here, and you remain!”’ She came a little closer into my arms with a sigh of content. My lady of the turquoises laughed outright. “You are infidele, monsieur!”’ she ex- claimed. “But there, the poor child ts young, and she needs some one to look after her. Listen! What is that?’’ We all heard it—the sound of a shot in the corridor. I kept.Felicia back for the moment, but the ‘others were al- ready outside.

I let even Felicia be led back to her room by her companfon. I took the lift down- yy ti and I made my way into the cafe. “Where is Louis?” I asked the first waiter I saw. “He is away for a minute or two, sir,”’ thé man answe Almost as he spoke Louls entered from the further end of the restatirant. He did not see me, and I noticed that his fingers were arranging his tie, and that as he passed a mirror he glanced at his shirt front. When I came face to face with him he -was~-breathing fast as though he had been running. “Louis,” I said, ‘‘five flights of stairs are trying at our time of life!’’ He looked at me blankly, and as one who does not comprehend. Louls glided away, and I saw him smilingly escorting a party of late guests to their places. I stood where I was and watched him. To me, the man was something amazing! I firmly be- lieved, even at that moment, that he had, safely hidden, not the whole, of the proceeds of this gigantic acheme of fraud. I belfeved, too, that his had been the hand which had killed Delora. And there he was, within a few minutes of the time when the i. edy had happened, waiting upon his guests, consulted about the vintages of wines, suggesting dishes!

HE Kelly-McFarland match, which the Mozart Club has virtually clinched for labor day, will prob- ably not be any -vwvorld’s champion- ship spectacle; but it will, at least, give a few’ St. Louis boxing enthusiasts -a chance to see in action the man who is said to be the successor to the “Old Master,”’ Joe Gans, in handling his fists. McFarland stands for the highest type of the boxing machine turned out by the advanced schools of today. There is probably no man of any Class, save possibly -Abe Attell, so capable of dem- onstrating the possibilities of foot, hand and head work in the ring. * * * | Farland wilt shortly box for the title, brute strength plays little part in the makeup of McFarland’s cam- paign. He has knocked out opponents; but that is not, his specialty. Wolgast relfes solely on his physical force, his insistence and his indifference to the at- tacks of his opponent. McFarland ac- complishes his ends by manual skill perfected to the INghest possible de- * . CRUEL, BUT EFFECTIVE. W ponent to the non-resistent stage he does it through a refinement of goads his opponent and pecks away at his sight. When he has cut him and merciful referee steps in and saves his foe. CRAFT HIS RELIANCE, NLIKE Ad Wolgast, whom Mc-

gree, making his science offset any dis- advantage in strength he may suffer. . HEN the necessities of the game demand that he reduce his op- cruelty that only the most proficient boxer is able to employ. Jab by jab he blinded him to. a point where he can put over the coup de grace, perhaps a . * . BRING ON THE STALLED OX. ELLY is a strong, rushing fighter K who has set himself the little task of making @ showing against Mc- Farland. He would like to drop him; but he has about the same chahce that Abe Attell has to drop Jack Johnson. McFarland will not have to extend him- self, probably. As an introduction to McFarland the exhibition should be in- teresting. J . * Ss. .TWENTY ROUNDS ENOUGH. —— FRED MURPHY WILL COACH BALL PLAYERS NEW HAVEN.

OB HARMON leads all the pitchers of both St. Louis clubs in games won, this season, he having credit for 18 winning and 9% losing games.

“Silent George’”’ Struck Out Seven Times in Two Games — Against Marty O’Toole.

ARRY HOWELL, one of the most popular players who ever donned a Brown uniform, was in St. Louis Friday. He is now performing as a second baseman with the St. Paul (American Association) team, and is having fair success. Howell's batting average is between .260 and .270, while his fielding ability is well known here. Howell, believes that Marty O’Toole, the pitcher of the St. Paul club, for whom the Pittsburg management is al- leged to have paid $22,500, will make good in the big arena. Of course, How- ell realizes that O’Toole will have to learn some of the finer points of the ~ game used in the big League, and not — on tap in the American Association, — ' “George Stones ability is pretty well — known in St. Louis,” said Howell to — the Post-Dispatch, “but as an exame- ple of what O’Toole can do, i must .. say that he struck out my former St. — Louis tcammate seven times in two . games. In one game George whiffed | four times. In another he swung ane? missed on three different trips to the ., bat. 21 strikes to George, even get a foul.”-+ “ Howell Likes Ben Houser. > Howell is out with a boost for Ben Houser, the former Mackman, and now — and he didn’t ' playing first base for the Indianapolis ~~ team. As a first-class; all around first ~ sacker, Howell says: he believes Houser has it on everything In the league. He says that the former Mackman is hit- ting all kinds of pitching, and is — ing a good fielding game. Autrey, the former Boston first man, now with the St. Paul team.

INDIANAPOLIS AND SAPULPA. é¢ AY UNTO DAY,” by Louis [) Howland, is a collection of es- says on the relations of rell- gicn to modern American life, repub- lished from the Indianapolis News. The atithor is a churchman. He has the in- stincts of a gentleman and the literary tastes of a scholar. He is liberal in all things. He writes quietly and sanely of questions which are most apt to vex the minds of those wno Have no stand- ard. He speaks always under authority rather than as an authority. He speaks always with an assurance, however, which to many may carry reassurance with it. He writes from close famil- ierity with the Bible, the standard au- thorities of the Church of England anc the standard writers of English prose and verse. Each one of his essays 158 after its kind a sermon. He preaches always, but not as if he felt under pro- feesional obligations to say what he does. The characteristics of his style are calmness and restraint. As the best forms might otherwise end in formality, this is relieved by frequent sentences compact with real thought. They 4d» net stir the mind. Perhaps they may not reach the conscience, but always they are in the best form. «As a gentle- man speaks to his equals, with respect for them shown always by the feeling of his own worth entering what he offers them, so Louis Howland speaks to his readers. Even if he fails to con- vert them:‘from anything or to anything, he will leave them feeling the satisfac- tion of association with one they ar¢ pleased to acknowledge as a peer, who has been pleased to think of them as good company, worth the best he “can offer them.—(Day Unto Day, by Loui: Howland, Indianapolis, the Bobbs-Mer- rili Co.). From Indianapolis to Sapulpa, Ok., is not so very far on the time tables which abolish distance. At Sapulpa, Francis Warren Jacobs has been moved by the same impulses which moved Louis How- land at Indianapolis. He has that to communicate which he thinks of infin- ite value. He has collected it in a vol- ume entitled ‘“‘A Tragedy of the Christ,” which he has published himself with a dedication to his daughter. It is a col- lection. of his writings in prose and verse. The opening sketch is prose fic- of Mary, the Sinner. peems and prose pieces attempting to nmiake clear what have always been con- sidered the final mysteries of the uni verse. The author has read Hamilton, Cousin, Herbet Spencer, Materlinck and other writers. Occasionally, in his verse there are lines of profound meaning. which express themselves in fitting form. In his .preface, however, he an- nounces himself beyond rule and. un- confined by any limitations others may think should control. This is his signif- cance, as his book meets that of Louis EHfuwland. It is a meeting of extremes. Mr. Jacobs, when he begins founding the Sapulpa school, begins at the top. experiments in the middle and works at every place except the right place. He shocks taste on every page. He de fies good form and is hopelessly worst} ei in the unnecessary conflict he chai. lenges. Yet, perhaps, the Indianapolis school has as yet sent to Oklahoma nething with more meaning in in it than he puts into those unfinished lines ot his, headed “‘Pardon:”’ “Against the rock, amid the gloom, The sigh for freedom breaks; Arising from the death-wet tomb Immortal, man awakes— Awakes from frightened reverie, In God’s own gift, ’Tis liberty.”’

COMPOSITE HISTORY. ORD ROSEBERRY is a Conserva- g tive Liberal Democratic Tory Im- perialist. As a composite leader in English lterature and in world poli- tics, he makes no attempt to please ev- erybody all the time, but he does suc- ceed in a most remarkable way in pleas- ing somebody all the time and every- body some of the time. He has never written a school history of the United States, but if he were to attempt it, he could hardly exceed the remarkabic success of the composite work of Prof. Andrew C. McLaughlin of the Univer- sity of Chicago and Prof. Claude Hal- stéad Van Tyne of the University of Michigan. As headg of the departments of history in these two universities, these two able authorities have com- bined their talents as authors of school history, for the purpose (a) of putting in what will please everybody; (b) of leaving out everything that is most dis- pleasing, and, finally (c) of leaving every one who studies the book so pleased that he will accept it.as real history instead of,school history. In pleasing everybody some of the time where it is impossible to please every- body all the time, Mr. Bryan Is intro- duced as “a man of ideals and great sincerity,” and Col. Roosevelt is en- dorsed for “untiring industry, remark- able mental powers and unusual! breadth of interest and sympathy.” This shows composite genius which might have been equal to giving Gen. Funston and Aguin- aldo floral offerings of the same kind, Satisfactory to them ag representatives of conflicting factors in the logic of events. Yet, seemingly distrusting their powers too much, the joint think best to omit all mention of sev- eral years of the most critical history of the twentieth _Pentury rather than attempt to ham ‘se Funston and Aguinaldo with and working method. As this work od characterizes American school history, it is hard: to see how anything better than the pres- ent .volume can result from it. It is pleasingly written. The authors state facts to illustrate their own opinions of what @ young person ought not to know in a way which is so pleasing that it forestalls objections and subdues criticism. Such facts as are incompati- ble with this plan are omitted with the utmost skill in the art of inspiring con- fidence. The young American educated thus in the history of the United States

4 will be more composite than Lord Rose- berry himself. He will be a Conserva- tive-Liberal-Democratic-Tory - Imperial-

Picture Review. (‘‘The Harvester,’’ by Gene Strat- ton Porter. Doubleday, Page & Co., New York.) | '

“THE GRAIN OF DUST.” OT cr GRAIN OF DUST,” David Graham Phillips’ last novel comes from the press with a tragic nis- tory that probably will attract a great deal more attention to it than it merits. The story was written to order for a weekly literary journal and the last three chapters of it were found in the author’s pockets when he was murdered by an insane assassin on the New York streets less than a year ago. It is unfortunate that Fate made it his bid for posthumous fame. Truly enough, it is a story of action and, at times, ‘of absorbing interest, but its characters and motives are so con- temptible as to jar the finer sensibili- ties. It is well enough to say that the author was portraying rather than creating and that he painted a certain phase of New York life just as he found—want and all. But it is doubt- ful if the reader will sympathize with this view. Surely, even in New York everybody isn’t bad. All have not de- signs on the virtue and fortunes of their neighbors. The fault with the book is its low moral and ethical tone. Fred Norman, pictured as New York’s most successful lawyer, spends all his time trying to accomplish the ruin of an innecent maid and only marries her because he can’t get her otherwise. Miss Hallowell—the grain of dust that, carried hither and yon by the winds of a city street, gets in the eyes of men, who thereafter can’t see anything else —has the innocence of ignorance rather than knowledge and, therefore, can’t possibly be a strong character. They are the only persons in the story that matter, the others being even more con- temptible. The gist of the story is this and nothing more: A lawyer with a tre- mendous income lusts for the physica! glories of his stenographer. She has eyes but can’t see, can't even *fall into the traps he sets for her. And so it goes til] the inevitable marriage when, it is to be hoped, they be- come real as Weill as sane persons.

T Galilee and the miracles He per- formed in the healing of the sick and the raising of the dead is again told. without any new variation in “Achsah, the sister of Jairus,” a nov- elette by Mabel Cronice Jones.

oa Wy, VICKROY, Principal, : “THE OTHER MAN.” DGAR WALLACE, in ‘The Other Man,."’ has produced a big, bold story, which runs at impetuous speed through a baffling plot in high finance, piling incident upon incident, until the thrills produced are as livAly as the wireless waves upon which hang the chapters of mystery and suspense. There is a clever, sinister criminal, a man of power, who composes epigrams as he pursues his terrible course. There are a father who goes to the bad, and a daughter, the dauntless girl heroine influenced by the wily villain. Rut, also, there is a shrewd detective— T. B. Smith, prosaic assistant-commis- sioner of Scotland Yard. ‘Smith’s pic- ture is done in colors at page 278, and there is no pipe in his mouth, but his lips are set for business, and he is a busy man in this mory of “Thé Other Man.’ Smith is put up against a ring of bad, bad men in silk hats and evening dress—they are part of .the time—who by the poWer of manipulation and mon- ey already acquired, play international hob with the markets and reap enorm- ous profits, and any curious person ' whose cupidity is aroused by a chance {to get in on the game is put out of ithe way swiftly, and with the same pre- cision that one goes about drowning kittens. But the big thing in the game of these desperate fellows that lifts them above the petty high financial criminal is the sens* of romance and imagination they display. Pirates bold they are in the markets and on the high seas. When all on land is unsafe for them, they take to the great’ ocean in a warship of their own, and. defy the world—and it is some time before the dreadnaughts of the nations bring the story to a cli- max that would get a dozen curtain calis if dead men could come to life as in the drama of the stage where the deaag are never dead. Poltavo, Cord, Doris, Baggin and all the others, the good and the bad—a busy cast. It’s a story of subtlety, something do- ing and sudden death. And fh the end— “Bang, bang!’ There’s. the Yankee man-o’-war, and T. B. Smith, Cora and Cord and justice lift their heads in tri- umph, and the nations sigh because the jangle of battle is over. The war dogs stretch their noses between their paws and snooze while the dove of peace alights on the shoulder of the heroine, and the hero takes his own. TIilustra- tions in color—four of ’em—by T.

THE WORST IN AMERICAN STYLE. CCORDING to Robert Louis Steven- son, all art begins in knowing what to leave out. In other words, if there is no restraint, there is no art in writing books, painting signboards or in anything else. This is important in connection with all war periods. During any great war the nervous tension threatens always to reach beyond restraint. In some the power of restraint is lost or so impaired that chronic hysteria appears in a great mass of writings: following any great war period. It may be concealed, and to that extent Stevenson might not have condemned its results altogether. But in some it shows itself with the full in- tensity of unrestrained hysterical spasm. After the close of the Civil War sev- eral writers became nationally notorious by cultivating this habit to its utmost extreme. One of them went from Ohio to Mississippi and edited the® Okolona States. He-had some method in his ut- most hysteria. In a way he had a cer- tain sort of genius. He has a great deal of physiological and political importance because he founded a “‘school,’”’ which had (or has) no sense whatever of the importance of leaving out what ought not to go in. It is necessary to say all this to show in advance why the collected writings of W. C. Brann, in two volumes, with a biography by J. D. Shaw, compel notice. Brann was born in Illinois. He left home at 18, beginning life as a beliboy, and educating himself without restraint by reading everything, good, bad and in- different. When he located finally in Texas ne was under the influence of the stvle which represented the worst over- strain of the Civil War period, as it had passed into a routine, mechanical meth» od. He was shot in Waco, and his bi- ographer recalls with apparent satisfac- tion that, after being mortally wounded, ke was able to return the fire of his assailant, who was also mortally wounded. As this sort of style intro- duced the “Spanish War period” of “red blood”’ fiction, it connects directly with the results of the Civil War on nerves and on the style of writings which results when nervous ; strain passes restraint. Such results may be atudied hereafter with close at- tention. In one sense, the writer of the book who does not know what to Ieave out is below the line of notice. By any standard of art, writing of this kind is the worst, even if otherwise un- objectionable. But when other genera- tions pass judgment on American his- tory the posterity which looks for the meanings concealed by the present may find the worst style and the crudest things said in it part of the best ma- terial for judgment,: (Brann, the Icon- oclast, a, Collection of the Writings of W. Cc. Brann,” In two volumes; Herz Bros., Waco, Tex.) the |

book is a blunder which should be cor- “SUCH A WOMAN.” WEN KILDARE’S death left this book unfinished, and the last chapters were completed by his widow, Leita Kildare, whose name ap- pears with his as joint authors. The preface, also Mrs. Kildare’s work, de- scribes the novel as her husband's legacy to the Bewery, and as a book with a purpose. The purpose was to show how mis- sion and settlement work, often mis- directed and futile, may be made of real service to the people of the slums. Kildare’s criticisms of some prevailing methods had aroused controversy, and this novel shows the constructive side of his program. Ervin Stoddard's ‘“‘Waysid@d ‘Inn,’”’. where ‘occasional volunteers” of the dilettante sort were not tolerated, and where ‘“testimonies”’ of previous depravity were cut short as superfluous recitals of the self- evident, is the center of the story. The pictures of the “‘Inn’s’’ effective work, of police court and prison scenes and of the daily life of the slums, are remarkably free from exaggeration or misplaced sentimentality. Kildare knew the Bowery, and he could write, though with a diction far from fault- less; and he made “Such a Woman’”’ both a very readable novel and a most interesting sociological treatise. The final episode of the story, Stoddard’s love affair, Is needlessly shocking to the reader's sensibilities. Stoddard, a man gf clean record and fine antece- dents, had no business to marry “such a woman.”’ A like situation was far better handled in “A Singular Life,”’ by the late Elizabeth Stuart Phelps. But this unhappy “happy ending’’ does not offset the great merit of the rest of the

book. (G. W. Dillingham Ce.) “CONFIDENTIAL CHATS WITH BOYS,” COMPANION volume to “Confiden- tial Chats With Girls” cémes from. the pen of Dr. Willjam Lee How- A ard under the title ‘Confidential Chats’ + With Boys.” Dr. Howard talks to boys as boys should be talked to. His lan- guage differs from that used in talking to the girls. He tells boys the tiings they should know about themselves the things which, according to tue Soci- ety for Social Hygiene, should be told all boys. Blind obedience is not de- manded in following the rules of health. Nor is the book intended as an agency for turning out ‘“‘goody-goody’’ boys or “sissies."’ In fact, Dr. Howard tries to impress_the boys with the necessity of being r@al boys and real men. He tells them how to attain to real manhood. There are two serious ‘‘breaks’’ in -the book. One is bound to make for preju- dice against those who are not native born Americans. The assertion is made that ‘all ‘“‘quacks’” who prey upon ‘the ignorant and. unfortunate are foreign- ers; that of the fake ‘“‘medical establish- ments,"” “not one is controlled by a genuine American or Britisher.’’ This assertion is surely incorrect, unneces- sary and mischievous. Anything that will make for prejudice is bound to be. Another serious blunder is the high praise 'of the navy and the urging ot hoys to join that branch of our service. Thousands of broken-hearted immothers and fathers can be found in this land as a result of boys running off to the navy. To urge boys to such a step in such a
