Six college towns, Warrenton, Fulton, Colum- Fayette, Marshall and Lexington, are on the entral, or Santa Fe trail, route, officially select- d for the new State highway. Its construction 1 be a liberal education to the State. | The State Board of Agriculture, which made ie selection, saw fit to make its decision a con- ‘Bitional one. Its members probably reasoned ' Bhat the privilege to be conferred, while not a ranchise, had some of the features of a fran- ihise, and should carry some of the common re- » Btrictions of a franchise. One of the most com- non of these restrictions is the requirement that onstruction must take place within a certain me. So the board ruled that, to gain full offi- lal recognition, the towns along the central _ Poute must make their road forthwith, complet- ' @hg it before either of the rival highways, the ‘Bouthern or the northern, is completed. This adroit stroke of policy will encourage the Owns along the other routes to build their roads, ind to rush work on them. Probably nothing nore than encouragement is needed, for the orthern and southern towns will realize that, they build as good a highway as the central one, the official stamp will not make any great lifference in favor of the latter. Whichever -Boute is found the most picturesque, smooth and Thospitable, will eventually become the favorite, tnd the prospect that three competitive routes ' Will. be built is a proper subject of congratula- - Hon to the State.

This act is the more gracious because the Emperor had hoped and had g0o0q reason to believe that the Archduke, who is second.in line for the throne of Austria- Hungary, would wed his granddaughter, Arch- duchess Ella, the eldest of the four daughters of his own favorite daughter, Archduchess Maric Valerie. This huge castle, with its extensive grounds, is a picturesque scenic ruin, once the headquarters of the “Bohemian Brethren,” and stands in a con- spicuous position in the ancient historic Bohemian town of Brandeis, 13 miles northeast of Prague, on the banks of the River Elbe. The property was purchased from Archduke Louis Salvator, an uncle of the disappointed arch- duchess Ella.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. MONDORF-LES-BAINS, Luxembourg, Aug. 198,— One of the strangest of the municipal officers in the realm of the pretty young Grand Duchess of) Luxembourg is the man who takes the pigs for a walk each day. He is no vulgar swineherd, but a municipal offi- cer, receives a salary from the town, is given a house to live in, a suit every year which he.calis his uniform, and he is entitled to a share of every pig he takes for a walk. His duties consist in parading the village streets at daylight and sounding a horn. Instantly every pig in his stye, recognizing the call, begins squealing like mad, and housewives can hardly run fast enough to let them out. As soon as he has collected his flock he leads them into the woods for acorns or into meadows far away, réturning them to their homes in. the early. afternoon, when he sounds his horn at each door, the pigs running each to his own home, eager to see what the trough contains, Each pig owner pays him a small sum.

They undertook to report, and the Kaiser, vexed at being met with disspirit- ing news, according to Nova Reform, a Polish paper.printed in Cratow, which claims to have in- side information, impatiently exclaimed: “You have a free hand to get what you can out of this affair, only I tell you plainly there hone be no fighting over Morocco—it is not worth: it. : never told you to send a warship to Agadir saise was your own idea, and now you must finds way out of this muddle yourselves.” Thereupon he turned to the plano. Though em+ barrassed by this rebuff; Kiderlin- Waéchter tried to regain his sovereign’s favor by inqufring. about the imperial opera. “What is its subject?” he asked. 3 “Oh,” answered the Emperor, “it is iin Awe.) gustus Il, a King of Poland. I tell you, it wll be a brilliant work. I shall incorporate in it Pollsh music ang dances there will be mazurkas, ipols-. naises and crecowilas.” In court circles it is not thought that there is4 any likelihood of a genuine imperial opera being produced in Berlin. ‘ “oe ? a OES : WHY THEY ARE AVIATORS... : ‘ PARIS, Aug. -19.—The winnings of Beaumont and Vedrines in various air races this year are | stated by @ local newspaper tv be $102,200 and $40,000 respectivély.

Cardinal de Lal, Secretary of the Consistorial Congregation, when he goes for a few weeks into the country, takes with him a formidable pile of documents requir- ing attention. Cardinal Rampolia, though ill from the heat, is kept harg at it. Cardinal Martinelli is overwhelmed with work. The gene.al impression is that Pius X is a man of pliant disposition, a tool of the more active members of the college, The truth is that he is an unbending and sincere Catholic, who lives out- side of the spirit of the age and who wishes to keep the faith as it was in the Middle Ages. The governments of France, Spain, Portugal, and even Italy, are in a constant state of antagonism with the Holy See, but the Pope pursues his aims and ideals, fights modernism, revives anctfent ritual reforms and clings to doctrine in its most rigia form. He is an apostolic and not a politician. CITY HONORS MAN WHO SOUGHT TO KILL KING. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York Werld. BRUSSELS, Aug. 19.—M.

LABOR HEADS FILE ANSWERS TO CITATIONS Continue to Rely on Contention They May Not Be Required to Disclose Defense. WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Samuel Gompera, president; John Mitchell, vice-president, and Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of-Labor, today filed sworn answers to the rule in contempt against them by Justice Wright of the District Su- preme Court. Continuing to rely on their conten- tion that under the Constitution they may not be required to disclose their defense before trial or to bear wit- ness against themselves, the three labor leaders content themselves with making oath to the formal pleas made before Justice Wright: last ‘month. The sworn pleas are four in num- ber. The first Is a general denial] of the charges in a plea of not guilty. The statute of limitation forms the basis of the second plea. In the third plea the court is accused of delay in commencing action, and by the fourth plea the claim is made that the delay has been so umreasonable that the
accused should not be called on to answer the charges. Track and Field Meet in Forest Park Will Raise Funds for Unfortunates.

It reads: “In my manifesto of June 12 of this year I explained to my fellow citizens, both civil and military, who have tried to proclaim my candidacy for the presl- dency, that I believed that, at the time when the agitation of the recent war had hardly died out, in place of accept- ing the candidacy with the danger of provoking a commotion under such dell- cate circumstances, I would have to re- fuse. I did refuse, categorically, to en- ter the race, for I held it the patriotic thing to do, as the quickest possible re- establishment of peace and order was to unite all elements in favor of the revolutionary cause, headed by Francis- co I. Madero, who was designated in the most vigorous manner by the irre- sistible demonstrations of public opin- fon as the man to occupy the highest picce within the gift of the people. Wishes to Strengthen Hands. It was this consideration which caused me to accept his candidacy and to re- cuest my followers to follow my exam- ple, with the conviction on my paft that by joining to the chief of the revo- lution all the corresponding elements he would be given the necessary power t» prosecute the energies of the nation and to dominate all elements which did net subject themselves to the reign of Inw and order, so that at last, in the wake of war, and the misfortune of the Republic, justice in all its splendor would sbine—justice. (I said in my other manifesto) for all the worried ones, justice with which to honor the fidelity and heroism of the army, jus- tice to reward the men who had made sacrifices for the triumph of democracy, justice and guarantee, in ghor. fr all social interests, deeply wounded or sus- picious, as they may be. “Tess than two months ago I issued this manifesto, and in this short tims I have seen that my desire to unite with and carry my contingency to the leader of the revolution is in vain. Part of his ardent followers have rejected me and mine, directing at me, through the press, all manner of denunciation, and these offensive manifestations of the irre- concilable ones, who nobly and _ ener- getically Mr. Madero opposed, were fai- lowed by others more serious. They originated with authorities who were placed in power by the revolution, an4 I found myself watched by the police ord Maderist troops as if I, a man of well-proved honor, and a soldier of hon- orable antecedents, were capable of an unworthy act, or conduct of any kind, which I would not display before my fellow-citizens and my companions-at- arms. Efforts’ Failed. “Thus it was that my efforts to plaee my contingency with that of the lead- er of the revolution ended in failure. They were rejected and the effort of uniting them le4 to loss of confidence and friction which might lead to conflict and even produced divisions among the followers of the noble champion. I then decided, with explanations on my part to Mr. Madere, who has been al- ways courteous to me, to leave his party in the most decorous manner, and a sincere letter from him which was writ- ten July 16 and which was not published until three days ago, in answer to mine, relieves me from all of my former prom- ises. “In this letter Mr. Madero does not speak only of my separation from him politically, but, inspired by the broad- est ideal of democracy, says that he would not consider it hostile to him if I should accept the candidacy for the presidency, since he was confident that the campaign would be according to the law. “On the other hand, the unfortunate happenings of the last months in differ- ént parts of the republic have greatly moved the spirit of the public. The in- jurious realities, and after them tha threats of demagogues, have caused a great desire on the part of the people for the re-establishment of peace and the guarantee of individual rights, and from every part of the republic I am re- ceiving energetic petitions to lend my name and elements through the elec- uons to a favorable change in the fu- ture situation.

PET BULL SNAKES URUP SAVERS FOR Kansas College Tells Growers Reptiles Will Keep Fields Free of Pests. . SHOULD BE 2 TO AN ACRE Are Affectionate Little Creatures and Are Certain Destruction to Gophers. | MANHATTAN, Kan., Aug. 19.—if the advice of the Kansas AgriculturaleCol- lege is followed every Kansas farmer will keep a herd of trained snakes on his farm and when Bill Jones meets Hi Jenkins at the cross roads on a Sun- day morning on the way to church they will tell of the prowess of their respective snakes and talk trade. Snakes are valuable to the farmer who raises alfalfa, and they are advised tc breed and raise them because the snakes drive out the pocket gophers and moles, the worst foes of alfalfa. Farmers who have been experimenting with snakes in the alfalfa fields say that two. active bull snakes will keep three acres of alfalfa clear of gophers and moles and that this service is worth at least $> per snake in a saving of alfalfa. State Law Advised. The Agricultural College has issued a bulletin on snakes on the farm. The re- port says: “Few of us relish the notion of keep- ing two bull snakes for each three acres of alfalfa, but there is no doubt that the snakes would take care of the gopher situation.’’ The bulletin advises that legislation be enacted protecting certain kinds of snakes from the ravages of the man with the club, as game birds are pro- tected. Maybe a snake warden. with oodles of deputy snake wardens, will be provided for and then there will be a lot of new jobs for the politicians. The gophers and moles have done such dam- age in Kansas alfalfa field& that -legis- lation has been attempted to require farmers to kill the gophers and to use poisons. . But the bull snake Is held to be far superior to poisons for killing gophers and moles. Most farmers keep dogs and cats but the snake experts assert that a herd of bull snakes would be much more valuable. The farmer is advised to give the wriggling protectors of al- falfa as much care and consideration as he does the helpful hen and the rat terrier that keeps the rodents from un- dermining the corn crib and wheat bins. Bright and early every morning the farmer should gather his bull snakes about him and hasten to the alfalfa field where the gophers and the moles are want to cavort in the dew and al- falfa. After ’Em, Bull! ‘‘Whoop-la. There he goes! After him, Jimmy Bull! Right down that hole, Bill Bull! Wriggle along there, now, you old sinner! After ‘em ole snake! Sic ‘em, Bull Swaller him whole."’ These and similar cries the farmer boy would give as his trained bull snakes go wriggling through the alfalfa and into the gophers holes. It ought to be lots of fun. Then the bad boys of the farms wili sneak away on a Saturday night with Dad's favorite bull snake and tney will meet under the railroad bridge and have a snake figlit. Cool nights drive bull snakes into win- ter quarters, where they remain untf! late spring, while the gophers and moles work a much longer season. To guard ‘against this the farmer could gather his snakes every evening just as he does the cows, only place them in lined bas- kets and keep them behind the kitchen stove. Sometimes the snakes might escape from the basket and decide that on the farmer’s bed was a much warmer place and they would crawl over and cuddle down on the farmer’s manly bosom. But one wouldn’t mind that when he got used to it. The bull snake is a light yellow, spot- ted with brown. They often grow to be six to eight feet long and are very powerful. They are not poisonous, but in fighting they bite very hard and cause ugly wounds. BLAZING COAT TAILS. TARGET FOR PISTOLS Old Town War Breaks Out Again in War Between Officer and Bootleggers. ARAPAHO, Ok., Aug. 19.—Intercity war has broken out again between this town and Clinton. It started over a county seat fight and was continued by the arrest of a lot of Clinton citl- zens of bootlegging charges. George Stevens of Arapaho went to Clinton to get a mess of bootleggers and when they showed fight he emptied his six-shooter into the ground around their feet, causing the Clinton men to exe- cute some fancy steps. Abe Green was so anxious to get away that he knocked down a horse hitched to John Miller’s dray in his flight. Then the bootleggers nade a stand and began shooting at Stevens He returned their fire, shooting wih a small revolver from his pocket. This get fire to his coat and with that gar- ment ablaze he ran out of town. The bootieggers shot at the burning garment while its owner fled. THOUGHT BEE CIGAR STUB EVANSVILLE, Ind, Aug. 19.—Col.

This is the fjrst political campaign since he became a resident of 8an Francisco and he is enthusiastic over the candidacy of the man for whom he stands sponsor. Theodore Jr. lives at 1942 Pacific av- enue, in the fashionable district of thé city. His wife was Miss Estelle Alex- ander, a relative of Mrs. William H. Crocker, wife of W. H. Crocker, presi- dent of the Crocker National Bank in San Francisco and a member of the famous family whose fortune Was es- tablished when Collis P. Huntington built the first railroad to the Pacific Coast. Dodging Publicity, Since their arrival in San Francisco the young Roosevglts have appeared but little in the public prints.

-ing year for the St. * Merchants say. OL. LOUIS MARIS First Week at Wholesale Houses Indicates Season Will Be Un- usually Good. More outside merchants visited St. Louls and purchased goods’ last week than ever before at this time of the year, according to wholesale merchants. Mere goods were bought here last week than in the same period of any pre- vious.year in the city’s history. A bet- ter class of goods was purchased by the visiting merchants than in former years. All indications point to a record-break- Louis wholesale market, jobbers say. Forrest Ferguson of the Ferguson-McKinney Dry Goods Co., told a Post-Dispatch reporter yes- terday that the sales so far recorded this month indicate that the business in August will be the largest ever done by his firm in any one month. Other merchants make like enthusiastic re- ports, Here by Hundreds. Hundreds of merchants from Southern and Southwestern states are crowding the wholesale district and buying their fall stock. They seem satisfied with the crop prospects in their localities and are buying freely. The fall buying will continue until the last of September. The cause of the optimism and en- thusiasm among the visitors is the un- expected large corn and cotton crops generally. Merchants from the South and Southwest say that the cotton crop will be the largest in the history of the country. The -world is waiting for the cotton crop, and the South is getting ready to supply it. Recent rains have turned expected poor crops into large yields. Where a month ago farmers were doubtful and looked for only part of a crop, they are making prenarations for a banner harvest. The large open stocks carried in St. Louis. are complete.and afford close competition, making it one of the best open markets in the country, visiting Salesmen report that made-in-St. Louis goods are rapidly making a name for this city for qual- ity and workmanship, and are becoming easier to sell each year. In women’s ready-to-wear goods, St. Louis is overhauling its competitors and is becoming recognized as one of the leading markets for this line in the United States. Up to three years ago St. Louis merchants had little of this trade. Since then several factories have been constructed to manufacture these ar- ticles. These goods have captured the St. Louis trade territory and their su- periority has been recognized in dis- tricts tapped by Eastern houses. Elias Michael, presidént of the Rice-
held their trade against the world. “The cotton crop, for which the world is waiting, is controlled by the South, and will bring more money into this country this year than ever before. The cotton crop will be abundant and the manuf: ‘uring world needs it. Cotton will brig e@ good price. St. Lo t# has been financing and as- sisting 1 levelop that section of the country and will this year get its re- ward. The people there naturally look to St. Lonis for their supplies. The vatheringe of the cotton crop, preparing it for merket, transporting it, and its manufact: e will make busy times for numberles. .eople and will put money into circulation. A large portion of it will be spent in St. Louis by merchants in that section who must supply the demand for goods.”’ Retail Stores Complimented, The retail stores in St. Louis are com- plimented by the visiting merchants. They say that many of the large stores are show places for outside merchants at which they get valuable ideas for use in their own localities. The wives and daughters of merchants from other states come to St, Louis during the buy- ‘ng seasons and inspect the displays in the retail stores. In this way they are able to suggest improvements in the methods used in their home stores. S. A. Hanlin, owner of a department store at Newton, Kan., is enthusiastic about the St. Louls market. He told a Post-Dispatch. reporter that’ St. Louis is one of the best open markets in all lines in the country. “The open stocks carried are complete and varied, creating a competitive mar- ket,”” he said. “The prices are fair end reasonable, and are kept so by com- petition. In some cities the merchants are left to shift for themselves and have to take the goods at a sort of fixed price, which always is high enough to be profitable. In St. Louis we find that the wholesalers and jobbers are after our trade. They almost come after us with knives and guns when We ur- rive in the city. This spirit of push and competition is what is making St. Louis one of the leaders as a trade center. “We can pattern after your retail] stores, and annually find new ideas that are valuable to the merchants in smaller cities. Your fine retail places help to draw business to the city. I am buying a better class of goods this year t:.an in some other years. The recent rains in Kansas have assured good crops and the people have money to spend. A prosperous year for the farmer means more profits to the merchant, wholesaler and everybody else.”

St. "Louis Sales Managers Arrange to Entertain Big Buyers This Week. Ag- The St. Louls Sales Managers’ | sociation has completed plans for the entertainment of the members of the National Commissary Managers’ As- sociation, which will hold its second annual convention next Tuesday, Wed- inesday and Thursday at the Southern Hotel. The convention will bring to St. Louls several hundred merchants, who do tre- mendous purchasing. There are about 8000 commissary stOrekeepers in the country, and they buy approximately $350,000,000 worth of merchandise in a year. The commissary stores are conducted by. industrial companies and are the source of supply of large numbers. Be- ing generally isolated each store has io carry eveything that men, women and children need or want. St. Louls business men will undertake to show the commissary managers that “St Louis has the goods,’ and be- sides is the logical distributing center for the commissary stores. The annual furniture exhibition and the Made-in- St. Louis show will be in progress dur- ing the convention. Out-of-town jobbers and manufactur- ers, alive to the importance of the con- vention, are coming to town to get ac- quainted with the buyers. They will have exhibits at the Southern.* The lo- ca] exhibitors will be at the Coliseum. New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Chi- cago, Cincinnati, New Orleans and other cities will send delegations here to try to get next year’s convention. The: association was organized at Baltimore last year. J. M. Schlonbach of St. Louis was largely instrumental in organizing it, and in bringing —_ year’s convention to St. Louis.

il lle at Hard and Soft Corns, Sa ee ee ee Remarkable Home Treatment ? For All Foot Troubles ;
“Dissolve two tablespoonfuls of Calocide compound in a basin of hot water, soak the feet in this for full fifteen minutes. (Less time will not bring results.) Massage the sore parts gently while in the water.” This should be repeated for a number of nights until the cure is permanent. The effects are almost magical. All soreness goes instantly and the feet feel so good that the whole nervous system is benefited. Corns and cal- louses can be peeled right off. Bunions are reduced and the inflam- mation drawn out. Sweaty, bad smelling feet and swollen, tender fect need but a few applications. Any druggist has Calocide in stock or will get it frem his wholesale house. A twenty-five cenc package is usually sufficient te cure the worst feet. Calocide is not a patent medicine. Formerly used only by doctors, but now is obtainable by the public in general, and is saving many an hour of torture for thousands.—ADV. French Heel Cramp

Below are 1911 successes fresh from the fields and sent us by our Commissioner of Agri- culture, Mr. L. A. Markham, formerly connected with the United States Government as agricultural expert. FARM of 18 acres! Bit of a small affair, isn’t it? With a price of $10 an acre tacked on it ceases even to be respectable. But, say, we are reckon= ing without the Elbertas. The Oakland Fruit Company has 18 acres in Elberta peaches four miles east of Van Buren, Arkansas. Last year that 18 acres yielded 6000 crates of peaches. Begins to look better, doesn’t it?’ Would you scorn to be the possessor of only 3% acres? Would, eh? Well, listen. Mr. G. A. Howell, of Van Buren, Arkansas, had 3% acres in, cantaloupes last year. The yield was 472 crates. The 472 crates sold for $603.32. Then he followed the cantaloupes on 14 acres with beans. The beans sold for $85. Total income from 3% acres, $688.32. Would an offer to sell you a 2-acre farm be an insult to your intelligence? Maybe such an offer would have insulted Mr. J. G. Nordin, of Russellville, Arkansas. But, anyway, he decided to plant 2 acres to Nancy Halls. MISSOURI ma\sigié IRON MOUNTAIN Those peaches sold for $6000. That’s his sworn statement, : Yes, they are; but surely you Nancy Halls are a particular luscious and succulent variety of sweet potatoes. He got 1140 bushels and sold them for $1 per bushel. what do you say? These instances are exceptional? could do one-fourth as well. Then, how would you like to raise peaches at $83 per acre, cantaloupes at $50, and sweet potatoes at $142? Know what I’d do if I were wearing myself out in a store, a shop, a factory or a mill, or if I were a tenant paying the other fellow high rent on $100 land that I could never hope to buy? Don’t know? Well, I’d pull up stakes and go down to Arkansas or Louisana. First I'd buy 25, 30 or 40 acres of $10 or $15 land near the Iron Mountain Railway. Then I’d put out a peach orchard, set some strawberry plants and lay out some patches for potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and cantaloupes. Finally, I’d get me a flock of chickens, a bunch of pigs and two or three cows. Then to the dickens with your panics, lay-offs and teal cost of living!

‘ AUSTIN, Tex.,. Aug. 19.—The Legisla- ture, called in special session to pass the general appropriations bill, ts cook- ing up the biggest mass of Democratic politics that has ever been brewed in this State. The recent State-wide prohibition cam- paign developed a political Situation that is unusual. It has caused a new alignment of party leaders, made politi- cal foes of friends and otherwise dis- arranged things. For some men who have been recog- nived leaders the new turn of affairs portends early retirement or a desper- ate struggle to win a continuance of their political supremacy. This situation applies particularly to Senator Joseph W. Bailey and Gov. 2. FP. Colquitt. These two men are facing a crisis. Both are alleged by enemies to be playing a desperate game to win .the approval of the majority of the Lemocratic voters.

RAE OEE EE RENN NL I NS A TET ae iPiotocrapk OurT Thoughts? Say. Now, Isn't That.a Bit Embarrassing?) ~ HALPIN'S PROF T 4 TIMES HIS INVESTMENT Filing of Option for Grand- Olive Corner Reveals Rapid Growth of Mid-City Center. BEGAN AS DRUG CLERK Pharmacist Who Has Acquired Great Wealth by Foresight, Now 67, Has Just Retired.
A romance of business is revealed by the filing of an option yesterday held by George W. Teasdale for a 99- year lease on the ground at the south- west corner of Olive street and Grand avenue, owned by Druggist Thomas Hal- pin. By the terms of the option Hal- pin expects to realize a profit 42 times the original investment. Halpin told a Post-Dispatch reporter that Teasdale has until next December to complete the option, and that ![t very likely will be consummated. The option is based on a 6 per cent net, valuation . Of $300,000. The property extends 50 feet on Olive street and 152 feet on Grand avenue to an alley. On it stands a three-story bulldirig and also the three-story resi- dence of Halpin at 3602 Olive street Negotiations between Halpin and Teas- dale call for a valuation of $7500 a front foot. The ground was purchased by Halpin in 1882 from James A. Hardy at a valuation of $140 a front f6ot. Hal- pin erected the buildings and has occu- pied the property since 1883, conducting a drug store on the corner. The provision for the conveyance calls for the erection of an eight-story bulld- ing on the site, Halpin to receive a yearly rental of $15,000 for the ground. According to the terms, he shall be permitted to continue in the drug busi- ness in the new building. Came From Ireland, Halpin, who is 67 years old, came to St. Louis from Ireland when a boy. His first employment was.in a drug store at Broadway and North Market street, in 1861. Then he became pre- ecription clerk. ifn the drug store at Tenth and O’Fallon streets of R. W. McBride, who also owned a store at Broadway and O’Fallon street. After McBride’s death, 40 years ago, Halpin bought both drug stores, and subse- quently. married his former employer's widow. Halpin said he was induted to buy the ground at Grand avenue and Olive atreet on account of his belief that some time that section would become the cen- tral part of the city. When he made the purchase there were only a few houses ‘in the locality, Including the residences of R. M. Scruggs, Daniel Catlin, A. H. Handian and John A. Scudder, across the street on Olive. Grand avenue, at this point, was the terminus of the Olive street car line, and a block.away, at Spring avenue, was the terminus of the old narrow gatige Florissant line. This being an important transfer point, Halpin said business on the Corner was good from the time he opened his store. Held for Investment. In-a short time the neighborhood be- gan to grow and the Beers hotel was| erected. Halpin and others were instru- mental in getting a@ franchise from the | ’ Municipal Assembly for the Grand. av- enue trolley line. They later sold the privilege to interests represented by John Scullin, which built the road. Halpin has refused many offers to lease the property, holding it with a view to leasing it as a permanent in- vestment. Until three weeks ago, he has been in active manaS#*ment of his drug ‘store, working, he said, from 7 a. ™m, to ll p. m. every day. Mrs. Elizabeth Dwyer, who owns the ground adjoining the Ha!pin property on the west, is planning to erect a building on her property. It will be a three-story ornate fireproof structure, occupying a frontage of 8 feet on Olive stréet by a depth of 152 feet to an @iley. The first floor will be arranged as stores while a bowling alley will occupy the basement. The upper floors are to be occupied by offices and studios. The facade of the building will be of omene brick and terra cotta, Mrs. Dwyer recently acquired 200 We of vacant ground adjoining the Halpin strip on, the west, but has resold all except the site-of her proposed bulld- ing. A plot of 85xl52 was acquired by the Empress Amusenient Co., which wii erect a concrete theater building for moving pictures and vaudeville, while the adjoining west 35 feet was acquire by the Gerhart Sisters, who have erect- ed a studio building.

~SENGE IN TIME > WILLREVIVEDEAD And When That-Is Done the Wizard Thinks Questions as to Consciousness After Life Has Once Ended Will Be Definitely Settled. -IN PARIS, TELLS OF EXPERIMENT HERE Blames Shape of Heads for Criminals. and Says Man Is a Mechanism—if fis- torted in Any Part He Is Bound to Lose Power. Copyright, 1911, by Press Publishing Ca (New York World.) PARIS, Aug. 19.—That the human being is only a higher kind of a phonograph was one of the views ex- pressed by Thoraas A. Edison in a ']- © talk I had with him today at the 4 + _, Hotel Majestic while he waited for _ tis friend, Mr. Monnat, of the Clax- - ‘tton Cos who fe acting as the inven- tor’s guide about Europe. Mr. Edison is an ardent reader of mewspapers and being interested in everything is consequently a versa- tile talker. In the numerous con- versations I have had with him his words have covered a wide field of topics showing that the inventor has mone of the insularity possessed by BO many scientists today. For in- stance, our conversation jumped from Shakspeare to musical glasses and later to Dr. Carrel’s recent sur- gfical marvels performed at the Rockefeller Institute. “Dr. Carrel has succeeded in graft- ing the-leg of a dog which had been cut off and kept in cold storage, back onto an animal so that the grafted ed became norma! again,” said Mr. Edison. “Such a successful experi- ment inspires the imagination; it prompts one to ask if the great ques- tion of consciousness after death may not eventually be solved in some such manner.” “If some day the scientists arrive at a point where the human body, afier life ls extinct, can be thus pre- served and after an indefinite time through the transformation of life- giving blood or fluid, be brought back to resume its normal functions, who can sfy that we may not learn defi- nitoly if there is consciousness after death?’ he asked. Man Is Mechanism. “At present, however, man must be regarded as au intricate mechanism, susceptible as a wax recorder to his special environments. Each individual does the best he can in the circum- gtances surrounding him. The degree of moral responsibility: one may pos- Sess depends on accidents of nature. If manis born with a face that, lacks proportion he cannot be blamed for picking pockets or indulging in other -$ngenulties of crime, since nature has -sinkindly deprived him of the norma! balance he is entitled to. In other ~~ S¥ords, We work weil or il] as a machine according to the degree of perfection . with which we are turned out of na- ture’s workshop. “Our prisonn and asylums are con- fequentiy only storehouses where a Z *-e@eficiont human machine or phono- graph is locked out of harm's way. el! 3s Civilization must have machines that s . * ~ Fi, -~ > *' Its innumerable an work properly to achieve the grand results of development which, I be- fieve, are the fruits of the future * mind.” Finery. **. Mr. Edison went on to compare mental “development of savages and Caucas- fans, but. he was soon talking of Paris as a paradise of women's finery, which * Jed him to express doubt as to civiliza- tion’s entire freedom from the fetich worship of gewgaws, characteristic of the Fiji Islanders and .other savages. The Rue de ia Paix is one of the streets of Paris which Edison avoids. “vanity shops” dis- please him with their displays, he told me. He objects to members of his family wearing jewels, having per- _@unde@ them that every jewel ts a ‘ink binding them to Hottentot stand- ards, where the female attains impor- tance in proportion to the pounds of ornaments ghe can carry about her body. Edison believes not only in the peempie life, but In the simple wife, “@nd is convinced that if pearls re- mained in their oyster shells, society “would not only be happier, but there would be fewer suicides among des- perate heads of families who live be- -yond their income to supply their Te with expensive superfluities, © Mgbts Monamenta. In = ¢ of Edison's materialistic views, Siany of Paris's most famous Pa 0 ‘Monuments recetve from him only cursory attention. — “When I see a great cathedral like “* Notre Dame,” he said to me, “I think © of what the enormous expenditure of money it represents would have _ «seam te the people of that day if it ‘~ hed been devoted to needs of edu- -@ation, Education is year by year a paking the false disti :ctions of class - $m Burope a thing of the effete past. Bd woulg welcome the revolt against o> (MUR ub oO Ponrene We POWITZKY ; time, and the fact that the Ameri- cans do not realize this is one of our defects, one of our lapses from com- mon sense.” 3 But Edison is no Socialist in the mobs sense. Grasping the morning paper giving the latest news of the English railroad strikes, he expressed satisfaction that the Government had resolved energetically to protest by, its military those who wished to labor independently of trades unions. “These labor societies,” he said, “threaten t6 become the tyranny of the twentieth century. They simply repeal the despotism of the paz3t which inspired their existence. Any individual who wishes to work, no matter at what wages, should be free to do so, and England's energetic measures to insure such liberty is a healthy sign of her: basic common sense. “France was at fault when she didn’t take the same stand in quell- ing the late state railway disturb- ances instead of contenting herself with a change of Cabine?.” Likes French Writers, He got to talking about literature and Edison told me he liked the French writers perhaps best of all as affording him mental recreation. He likes Victor Hugo, and he said nothing entertains him more than reading some exciting detective story of Emile Gaboriau; he likes Conan Doyle, too. .From literature we went to art and Edison told me he liked French paintings and intended going to the Luxembourg gallery to see some of the works of his favorite painter, Gerome. “T am not interested in old mas- ters,” he said. “The pursuit of these. ancicnt paintings by retired million- aires seems to me a mark of menta! decline, "What I like in art is the realistic tendency of the present day which has something definite to say to the every-day man, and among the French painters I find canvasses most to my Jiking.” Edison speaks quickly. He rarely elaborates an opinion, dismissing the subject in a few words, which ac- counts for the wide variety of topics the “Wizard” discussed with me In a short, entertaining half hour while he was waiting for his friend, Mr. Monnat. Edison’s green Daimler has been busily moving the last two days, for his stay in Paris is brief, and he is eager to continue his way through provincial France, which offers more things of interest than the huge arti- ficial cities, His mind appears to move as rapidly as his motor, and new inventions are constantly being sug- gested by objects coming under his eye. When passing through the Bois de Boulogne, after leaving the Sacre Coeur, his attention was suddenly drawn by a famous old windmill] in the Longchamps* racetrack, which, ivy-covered, has long stood a land- mark, Edison then confided to me. “This suggests to me the idea of a tangent windmill, which could be used for practical purposes, for instance, to ran dynamos for accumulating large amounts of electricity for industrial uses. I will work on the idea when ft am back at Orange, and hope soon to get a patent.” STONE SUCCEEDS Kansas Citizen Gets Place as State Bacterioltogist. . JBFFERSON CITY, Aug. %—pDr. M. C.

John Jacob Astor is acclaimed a hero by all Newport today, by townspeople as well as the summer colony, and his fiancee, Miss Madeline Force, is shar- ing in the glory of it all, for the Colonel rescued a crew of bank clerks who were shipwrecked off Horton's Point, in‘the sound, last night. “That will show what sort of a man Col. Astor is,” is the verdict of his friends here, for it is apparent that there is no longer a trace of resent- ment in social Newport against him because of his approaching marriage. After landing the young men he had saved, Col. Astor, accompanied by his flancee and her father, was driven to Beechwood, his palatial cottage here. They remained in the house an hour and were then driven back to the yacht, which sailed at noon for what Col. Astor described as “just a little week-end fishing trip.” Will Follow the h. ‘T really fo not know just where we shall co,” said the Colonel. “Wher- ever we can find the fish, I expect.” The Noma is expected to return to New York on Monday and there Col. Astor will proWeably remain several days before returning to Newport. “The fact is that Col. Astor does not himself know just what his movements will be’ one of his intimate friends here told the Post-Dispatch corres- pondent. “Much depends upon the health of Miss Force. No date has been set for the marriage, but it will not probably be for several weeks at least. 1 don’t. think Colonel Astor has made any definite arrangements for it. Tt is reasonable to believe it will occur quietly in Connecticut or New Jersey and that there will be a small reception at the Force home in New York. ‘‘The Colonel and his bride will then take their wedding trip on his yacht. Whatever he decides to do can be eas- lly arranged as his places here and on the Hudeon are both in readiness for any function and he has his yacht fitted for any emergency that may arise. Col. Astor expects to return to Newport some time next week with Mrs. Force and Miss Madeleine. but further than that nobody here can make the prediction.’ Mise Force Sees Rescue. The men rescued by Colonel Astor are Lester Bauer of New York, James §8. Mann of Brooklyn, Wilham Humphrey of Garden City, Herbert Hirchs of New York and James McDonough of Staten Island. Miss Force was standing beside Col. Astor when they were brought aboard in the life boat from their waterlogged craft, the Zingara, chilled and- weak from five hours of terror as their half sunken craft was driven before the gale. “Oh, let me help,” one of the personally oversaw the brewing of coffee for them and listened with the keenest interest while they told their story. “As far as we could see Miss Force was in the best of health,” said Humphrey. “She certainly did not show any sign of iliness as she hur- ried away to see about a lunch for us and we were mighty grateful for the hot coffee,” ; ¥ NOR SORE CSE Te Tere oe Rae PET INT eee papi igs tte es toe ag ; £ - > se r 3 4 “aren AY MORNING, AUGUST MORNING, AUGUST 20, 1911. AE meena tenet eh ET TRUTH SIDE WOMAN WHO LEFT | MANSION HUSBAND BUILT FOR HER POWITZKY GANT SEE HOW HIS WIE COULD QUIT HOME Points to Beautiful Longfellow Boulevard Mansion as Proof He Is Not Stingy. TELLS OF POLICE CALL Woman’s Divorce Petition As- serts He Didn’t Keep Wolf From Door of Palace. Answering his wife’s allegation im ea Atvorce petition that he was stingy, Henry F. Powitsky, president of the Powitzssky-Collins Carriage Woodwork Co., told a Post-Dispatch reporter yes- terday afternoon that he is willing to introduce his mansion at %85 Long- fellow boulevard as exhibit A in his defense. Anyone who wishes, he says, may in- spect the house, his view of marital re- sponsibility being that when a man has provided a beautiful and perfectly ap- pointed home for his wife he has done his duty. ’ Powitzky says he cannot see why any woman should not be happy in a home such as he provided for his wife, nor why she does not wish to live in it. Is a Beanatiful Home. His friends say there is not @ more beautiful home of its pretensions in South St. wouls. Vistors to the city have marveled at its pergolas, its pillard porches, its ter- raced gardens, its conservatories, its sunrooms, its classic perfection of Iine and finish and its general air of taste- ful affluence. For all of this Powitaky claims credit. The house was built to his order to please the wife who is now suing him for divorce. Having spent money to create a love- poem in brick, stone and mortar, Pow- itzky .cannot understand why § there should be a jarring note in the sym- phony. Mrs. Powitzky’s ‘view is different. Though she now sees the house only from the outside, she cannot bring her- self to indorse her husband's opinion as to what makes marital happiness. Boulevard Is Shocked. The Powitzkys were married April 25, 1907, and, according to Mrs. Powit- azky’s divorce petition, separated July 23 last. Mrs. Powitzky alleges that the di- rect cause of the separation was an attack by Powitzky on her sister, who visited her at her Longfellow boule- vard mansion and was so entranced by the beauty of the place that she remained there until after midnight. Longfellow boulevard, the petition indicates, was inexpressibly shocked when a patrol wagon swung through ite portals and a squad of policemen jumpeq out and asked what was the matter. So far as official records show there were no arrests. Living With Her Sister. The sister whose presence at the Powitzky mamsion caused the police call, was Mrs. Richard Dawson of 3628 Cleveland avenue. Mrs. Powitzky is now staying at the Dawson home, from the upper windows of which she Gan see the beautiful Longfellow bou- levard residence which, her husband says, should make any woman happy. But she doesn’t want to go back. In her divorce petition, filed Friday afternoon, Mrs. Powitzky alleges that her husband was stingy. She says that while he gave thousands of dol- lars a year to a married daughter and paid his son’s debts, he failed to provide enough to keep the wolf from the door of the Longfellow boulevard mansion. He Tells of the Visit. Mrs. Powitzky also alleges that her husband had a violent temper and that at times he talked so loudly as to disturb the peace and dignity of the conservative neighborhood. One of his wife's allegations is that while she was receiving telephone birthday congratulations from a friend her husband tore the telephone from the wall. “T deny that,” said Powitzky to a Post-Dispatch reporter yesterday, ‘“! don’t want to say any more about it, but I'll have my say in court. Any- body can inspect my house to see whether I was stingy. “My wife's sister, Mrs. Dawson, came to the house one night at 11:30 and stayed until after 8 o'clock in the morning. When I said it was time for her to go home she created a dis- turbance and it was necessary to cali the police. Police Report ef Incident. The police report on this incident says that Mrs. Dawson went to the Powitzky home the nfght of July 22 last and tried to coax Mrs. Powitzky away, and that, whan ordered to leave, she fell down and screamed. When policemen arrived at the Long: fellow boulevard mansion they found that Mrs. Dawson had gone home. accompanied by Mrs. Powitzky. Mrs. Dawson, according to the report, sal: that her knee was sprained, but she refused medical attention. Lieut.

CALLS SYSTEM OBSOLETE Would More Than Double Num- ber of Physicians at the Sanitarium. ce-president of the Hos- His chief argument was that in- salaries would mean increased efficiency. Gray declared there was no shortage of coarse, wholesome food for the in- stitutions, but that under inexorable rules laid down by the comptroller, it was impossible to supply the delicacies required by the {ll and convalescent in- mates. Comptroller Taussig, President Reber of the Board of Public Improvements, and other city officials, while agreeing that conditions at the hospitals need correction, are opposed to the hospital bill as giving too much power to the Hospital] Commissioner and the Hospi- tal ‘Board. “The Comptroller ilaiiteda the super- intendents of the institutions to furnish an itemized list of everything in the food line for an entire year,” said Vice- President Gray. ‘‘We are compelled ‘o spend our appropriation for groceri. meats, fish, poultry, bread, milk, vece- tables and fruit. We cannot vary from that program. Delicacies Necessary. There is no shortage of food at the hospitals now. Of course we are not expected to provide a high-class hotel bill of fair for the inmates, but people who are ill ought to have delicacies to promote their rapid recovery. “Many patients go to the hospitals suffering from severe illness or injury. The physicians do the best they can to start them on the road to recovery. “It is all right for a strong, well man to eat megt, beans, potatoes, hominy and other coarse foods, but sick or convalescent people require something else. Under the Comp- troller’s ruling !f we exceed our a)- lowance for groceries we will have to run short on something else, “We think we ought to have better paid help. Hospital salaries have not been increased for years, and, while there has been an increase in the cost of everything they wear, they have to continue to work at the same old gal- ary. The highest price we pay at the city hospital {ts $85 a month and keep, and there isn’t much incentive for good service in such salaries. Shortage of Nurses. “The hospital service is not bad now. The board has received numer- ous letters from patients compliment- ing us on the efficient manner in which the hospitals are conducted, and commenting on the kindness of the attendants. We are not making complaints about conditions, but we did ask for the enactment of the hos- pital bill to make improvements where we thought they were neces- sary. “There is a shortage of nurses and physicians in the city sanitarium and some of the other institutions. We cannot provide more physicians and nurses. We have to get along with what we have got. “Take the sanitarium, for instance, we have a superintendent and three physicians to take care of 1800 insane persons, “Suppose you went to a town of 1800 people, where health conditions were normal, and became ill. If you learned that there were but three phygicians in a town of that size you would be startled, wouldn’t you? Now we have a town of 1800 people at the sanitarium, all afflicted, and have but four physicians to take care of them. We ought’ to have at least 10 physi- clans, and probably more. More Would Be Cured. “Then we could turn out as cured some of these unfortunate people— say 10 per cent, or 180 a year. That would be a great benefit to humanity, as well as a saving to the city. We think we ought to have a psycho- pathic ward where people mentally afflicted could be treated without being sent to the sanitarium. If they recovered they could be sent home without the stigma of having been in an asylum. If they could not be cured then they could be sent to the asylum. We ought to be humanit- tarian.” We can’t establish the psyco- pathio ward under present conditions. We could if the hospital blll were passed. “Patients who go to city institu- tions cannot expect such treatmenr as they would get tn private hospi- tals. But we ought to give them the best treatment possible. We do not propose any reckless expenditure of the city’s money. We are not serving porterhouse steaks, but we ought to have a dietitian to prepare the food we have in the most attractive and appetizing way. “We ought to have an appropria- tion for tools to repatr institutional property. The doctors at the hos- pitals have no tools to make splints for binding broken limbs. We need good nurses. We have a staff of fine physicians for the city hospital. They are all capable men, and are siving the city much valuable service for nothing. efficient nurses where we do not now have them; it will deo away with the obso- lete system of requiring all the hos- pital employes te live at the institu-: tion.

HE city hospitals of New York come T under three heads; those under the control of the Commissioner of Cnarities, those in the independent group, known as Bellevue and allied hospitals governed by trustees appointed by the Mayor, and those for contagious diseases, under the direct control of the Buerd of Health, including the Otisville for tuberculosis patients. In the hospitals under the control of the department of charities the daily average of patients treated during the jnonth ‘of June was 5635, not including ing 3980, requiring more or less constant medical attention. To care for these there are 2533 em- ployes, including all from the Commis- sioner of Charities down to the gate- keepers and stablemen, the average wage being $20 a month. In all the hos- t-itals the employes, except those of the clerical staff, are housed, fed in the hos- pitals and have their laundering done anc thelr uniforms furnished. Minimum Wage -85 Monthly. The hospitals in all branches of the service have both house physicfans and visiting physicians. In the Charities Department the low- est wage is $5 monthly, with board and lodging, which is the amount paid the scrubwomen. As to the standard of ef- ficiency, the hospitals declare it to be as “satisfactory as could well be expected at the rate of wages.” The pay of the bulk of employes, orderlies, laborers and workmen of the cheaper class is a constant source of dissatisfaction and the department has issued a pamphlet on the subject call- ing attention to the fact that of the 2533 employes, 1208 receive less than $240 per year. To keep the force re- cruited up in this class there are an average of more than 7000 changes @ year. The work is hard and the time of employment 12 hours daily. Bellevue Hospital itself cares for a daily average of 1150 patients. There, are, all told, 900 employes, 750 of whom work in the hospital proper. The re- mainder do outside work, such as look- ing after the sick poor in their homes. work in connection with the settlement workers in the congested districts on the East Side. 1030 Patients; 923 Employes. The contagious disease hospitals have a daily average of 1030 cases under treatment, with a total list of physi- cians and employes of all grades of ap- proximately 925, at an average wage of $425 per year. The biggest general hospital in the jurisdittion of the Commissioner of Charities is the Metropolitan Hospital [ts average daily census for 1910 was 1430 patients. There were nine pupil nurses at $120 per annum, 24 at $144 per annum, and 87 at $180 per annum. There were 21 trained nurses at $600 per an- num. ‘'There were 18 internes, who re- ceive no salary. ‘here was one order- ly at $420. There are 429 hospital helpers, which includes workmen of all grades and duties. Of these, three are paid $600 per year, seven $480, four $420, fifty-five $360, ten $300, eight $240, five $216, three $ly2, thirty-eight $180, one hundred and eighty $150; four $120, two $96 and ten $60. | Convalescent patients are set to work as orderiies, a custom against which the department is always protesting, Dut under the appropriation for the main- ——— tenance of the hospital, ne others can be hired.

They get their pay from the school, which is a private institution and has had the contract for years, Th staff of the ‘Dunning Insane Asylum includes the superintendent, 6 senior physicians, 2 assistant physit- clans, 2 head nurses and 165 nurses and attendants. The nurses at Dun- ning get board, laundry and $30 to $50 a month, paid by the county. The patients are: Insane, 3626; tuberculs- sis, 220; paroled, subject to observa- tion, 126; total 28732.

He knew the President was going to veto the bill and any and all other tariff bills that Congress might pass at this session. Assurances to that effect had been given him before he ever con- sented to father reciprocity on the floor ef the Senate. But that veto meant much to Penrose. Had the President signed the wool bill and told the people that he looked on it as a crude and half-baked measure to be amended later In the light of the Tariff Board’s findings, he would have made a long step toward re-election in 1912. The common people would have been quick to see in his action an earnest desire to heed the clearly ex- pressed demand for hone:+ tariff re- vision and rapid relief from the real hardships of a schedule he himself has branded as ‘“‘indefensible.’’ But the President is not a politician. Penrose is. Taft, with reciprocity, the farmers’ free list, wool ang cotton revision, the arbitration treaties and his trust-bust- fmg record behind him, could have gone to the people with more than even chances of success. He would have gone as the real leader of the Republican party, not as the candidate of the Re- publican machine. The organization woufd have been forced to renominatc him as the only alternative to over- whelming defeat. Now it will be in a position to ‘‘confer’’ the nomination on him, and, if he consents to lead the forlorn hope, place the blame for defeat squarely on his shoulders= Now for the Cabinet. NCIDENTALLY, the Republican machine, of which Senator Penrose is the new boss, will be able *o force a readjustment of the Cabinet. From the first the organization has been dissatisfied with the Taft Cabi- net. Dickinson was a Democrat an! Franklin MacVeagh and Wickersham have both shown far more independence than the part, bosses were, prepared to tolerate. Ballinger was drorred purely on grounds of expediency. ! Dickin- _ got got rid of for politica! reasons. Fish- er and Stimson have taken their places Both are Roosevelt progressives, but just as amenable as their leader to or- ganization rule. The Knox faction itn the Cabinet—th» faction which has the support of the old guard and machine Republicans—is now planning how to get rid of the Secretary of the Treasury, who was strongly in favor of the revision of th- schedule, also of the Attorney- 1, who refuses to listen to the Big Business or to show any tion to the Steel Trust and its this purging of the Cabinet Penrose is Yending his every effort. The new Republican, leader looms larger just now in the political situa- tion in Washington than any other man. Penn ose has succeeded to Aldrich’s place in the Senate. He will have charge of Taft's campaign tn 1912. He aspires to be the Mark Hanna of a rejuvenated G. O. P. At Best in Home State. TT atou is nothing of the statesman
about Penrose. He is a politician, pure and simple, and a gang poll- ticlan at that. He is at his best when presiding over a gathering of the Phil- adelphia ring bosses in his offices in the Arcade buikding, or running a leg- isiative caucus at Harrisburg. There, in his own State, he preaches the gos- pel according to Quay. But although he employs the methods, he lacks the ability of his old-time boss. se has “All of Quay’s Sen aeneiae, none of his talents.” More than half of Penrose’s life has ean Spent in politics.

ANNULMENT SUIT FILED
Mre. Ethel Stirratt Walters of Bast St. Louis filed a petition at Belleville Friday seeking an annulment of her marriage to Fred Walters, in St. Charles, Mo., April 12, 1910. The peti- tion relates that Walters had been di- vorced only a few months before the marriage and that she was ignorant of the State law prohibiting a divorcee from marrying until a year had elapsed. Mrs. Walters says that on May 323, 1910, her husband left her without means of support. Miss Stirratt was a tele- phone operator

DESERTED BY MAN IS Lia TO GIVE UP BOY He Is Invalid and All Possessions Had Been Sold to Buy Food for Baby. Deserted by his wife and unable to work because of an attack of sciatic rheumatism John Hollis of 1614 Pine street wrote to the Post-Dispatch and asked for aid in placing his eighteen- month’s-old son, Clifford R. Hollis, in some good family until he can be cured of his ailment and make enough money to support the baby properly. Yesterday afternoon a man whose name is Anderson called at the Pine street address with his wife and after a conference the father agreed to give the chil4 to them temporarily. The three left the house with the child and late last night Hollis had not re- turned when.a Post-Dispatch reporter called. Other roomers say Hollis liked the couple and they heard Anderson tell. ing his wife to buy the child some clothes and a crib as they left the house, Hollis and the chfléd have been living in a small room at the Pine street ad- dress. The only piece of furniture that he owns in the room is the sewing ma- ‘| chine; even the bed on which they slept having been sold to the landlady to buy milk for Clifford and pay the room rent. Hollis was employed until four months ago as a clay digger. He was strick- en with sciatic rheumatism and unable to continue at his trade and moved to St. Loufs from Benton with his wife and baby. He stored most of the furniture, which was valued at $300, with a stor- age company, borrowing 83 on it for immediate needs and reserving only enough of ft to furnish one room. They came to the Pine street address a week ago. The wife, Mrs. Fierenes Hollis, sup- ported the Yamily by working in a res- taurant until last Wednesday, when she feserted her husband and the child, Hol- lis hag asked the police to look for her. The room rent was due and Hollis was obliged te sell all the furniture in the room but the sewing machine to pay the rent and buy food. : yee

SAUNDERS. World. W can’s season this afternoon and evening the new theatrical year of 1911-1912 has its. formal beginning in St, Louis, and the next fortnight or £0 will probably witness the rise of the curtains at ‘all other important loca! _ playhouses. _ ‘The past season in this city was made sadly memorable by the death of Pat Short, the dean of St. Louis theater managers, and the two houses formerly under his management are hereafter to be directly controlled by Klaw & Er- . langer of New York, through their St. Louls representatives, Messrs. Sanford and Cave, with high-class offerings promised on both stages. It is as yet too early to attempt an analysis of the new year’s dramatic outlook, but all indications point to a better quality of entertainment. Unworthy plays mrt with wholesale disaster during the sea- gon of 1910-1911, permanent and profitabie @uccesses being scored by competent Grama alone, and the teaching of this truth is too plain to be wisely ignored. Jt is safe to say that the average of plays to be presented at the Olympic, _ the Century, the Shubert, the Garrick and other St. Louis dramatic houses will be higher in quality than for some “years past. One may find comfort, therefore, in the immediate theatrical prospect. Be- ing by nature an optimist, I enter upou the new season’s work with @ sereny confidence that its undertaking is wel' worth while Skinner has been “loaned’’ by Charlies Frohman to Kiaw & Er- Jlanger and Harrison Grey Fiske as the star of their forthcoming production of “Kismet,” the intensely dramatic Ara- bian romance by Edward Knoblauch, which carried London by storm laSt sea- son. He will be the American creator of the role of Hajj, the beggar, portrayed by Oscar Asche in the London presen- tation of the play. It is an extremely picturesque part, calling for the most convincing and masterful art in its in- terpretation, and I imagine thet Otis Skinner, to my thinking the best - equipped actor on the American stage, » 16 destined now to score the biggest triumph of his brilliant career. The story of the play, which wag told some weeks ago in this column, gives him ample oppo ‘unity to this end, being _ @f the most fascinating romantic quality, with a climaxing scene of uncommon power in its legitimate grip upon the ‘Imaginations of its audiences. I do not know any other player more certain to make the most of such an opportunity. The chances are, however, that we in St. Louis shall not have the pleasure _ ©f seeing the Hajj of Otis Skinner’s ' playing in “Kismet” this season. The play’s prestige as a London hit of the T rejoices my soul to learn that Otis 2 . first magnitude, tosether with the cer- = tainty that its production by Klaw & "* Erlanger and Harrison Grey Fiske will + be-singularly memorable, seems to in- Sure a New York run covering its first year's American presentation.

N insists upon the lighter form of stage entertainment—that is, if we on this side are in the same mood as our English cousins across the water. The London season, now practically ended, has been strangely calamitous for offerings in the field of straight and musical comedy. There have been many failures, so ‘many, indeed, that man- agers are beginning to fear that English writers of lightly diverting drama have forgotten their cunning and sunk into the sere and yellew leaf of unmitigated dullness. This may be the explanation, of course—and again it may be that the exclusively amusing play, demanding and provoking no thought on the part of its audiences, is out of favor for the time being. It is significant, at least, that during this same period of disaster to the lightweights, Sir Herbert Beer- bohm Tree has devoted one entire year to the presentation of Shakspearean drama at His Majesty’s Theater, every night since last September having wit- nessed a Shakspeare play’s performance, and that this “‘Shakspeare year,” as Tree himself calls it, has been the most profitabie, financially as well as artistic- ally, in the history of the playhouse just named. The year closed with a “Shak- speare Festival’ of three months’ dura- tion, crowded houses being the invari- able rule. I give you this truth for what it may be worth. To me it seems a truth rich with the brightest promise for the future of the English-speaking stage. OR ts it so certain, after all, that don’s actor-managers, evidently is still of the opinion, however, that audacious novelty will continue to be a winning card in the mimic world, and he plainly proposes to act boldly upon this belief. His big production of next season is to be a melodrama of Anglo-Chinese ea- vironment, its star figure being drawn from no less a real-life personage than our old friend, Wu Ting Fang, former Chinese Minister .to Washington—but, oh, how deplorably changed from the affably suave Celestial nobleman of our knowing! For in this Anglo-Chinese melodrama, written by one Harry M. Vernon and frankly called “Mr. Wu,” the title-role character is that of a crafty Chinaman of dominating per- sonality who, beneath a veneer of Euro- pean culture, retains a primitive sav- agery that makes him grimly out of the ordinary run .of contemporaneous worl4- stage mankind. Returning to China as the head of a powerful secret society based on the Tong scheme of organiza- ticn, he then sets himself to the task ef evening up his score with a distin- guished Englishman of affairs whose son has wronged the vengeful China- man’s daughter. Here, of course, is the motive power for all the play's “thrills,” but just how they come an¢é what is the story's ending are bits of information which Mr. Bourchier does no. yet see fit to give out. The plot's basic structure seems to me @ trifle “ten-twent’-thirty,” so to speak, but it must be remembered that English playgoers of @ certalfi class can swal- low their melodrama in Gargantuan gulps.

The American Theater opens its season this afternoon and evening with “Rock of Ages,” a new play by Edward EB. Rose,’ whose helpful and uplifting drama, “The Rosary,” was one of the big successes of last year. Playwright Rose’s latest work is along the same lines of beneficent purpose, but somewhat broader and more far-reaching, than “The Ros- ary.” It takes a present-day theme, that of the white slave _ traffic, coupled with its twin evil of political graft, and upon this foundation builds a strong dramatic story, said to be of intense-interest from start to fin- ish. Despite the fact of its dealing with a subject essentially somber, ‘the play is, nevertheless, a breezy comedy, redolent of green fields, bright sunshine and ‘wholesome human nature in the main, with its pathos and humor skilfully blended. Miss Jessie Arnold heads the cast, which includes Bernard Craney, Fred Pittan, Jack Lewis, Albert Hyde, Alma Russell, Lulu Bishop and Lou- ise Kelly. “The Third Degree’ follows. Charlotte Walker, this season’s most successful Suburban star, begins her third and farewell week tonight, presenting for the first time in’*St. Louis the comedy- drama entitleqg “Just a Wife,” writ- ten especially for her by’ Eugene Walter, her husband, and in which she has already scored a brilliant New York triumph under David Be- lasco’s management. Monday night’s performance will be for the benefit of the Denver Home for Consump- tives. The new play is one of the best yet written by the author of “Paid in Full,” “The Easiest Way’ and “The Wolf,” and Playwright Walter him- self has rehearsed the Suburban company and star for its presenta- tion.

Loebel is not only one of the most popular German actors this city has ever known, but he has also given ample and convincing proofs of man- agerial ability of a high order. As a Player, he is versatile and always a genuine artist. As a manager, he has already carried to a successful issue a St. Louis season of German dfama which at one time threatened to be disastrous. Now, with the confidence of the guar- antorsa supporting him, and having been given a free hand in the selection of his company and in its management, he is expected to make a distinguished record. Nearly all the leading mem- bers of the new company have been en- gaged, the majority from _ prominent theaters abroad, the remainder from well established German playhouses in this country. Comic opera will be a feature of the season soon to open, the new company being thoroughly trained in both drama and opera. Manager Loebel is now at BPlkhart Lake, Wis., reading up on the latest German stage successes, some 50 of which he has already booked for St. Louis production. “In “Elevating Her Husband,” the new play in which he will star next sea- son, Louis Mann will have, for the first time in many years, a role which does not require a German dialect. sacrifice. ~— -*-- -~ wee ee ee -: Tis NEW UPRIG nomical purchase. -‘Biasy BY Stock * Lewis Waller to Play we in “Garden of Allah.” From New. York comes now the au- thoritative announcement that Liebler & Co. have signed Lewis Waller, the fa- mous English actor, to play the role of Boris Androvsky, the renegade monk, later repentant and returning to his monastery, in the forthcoming Ameri- can production of “The Garden of Allah,” dramatized from Robert Hich- ens’ novel of the same title by the author and Mary -Anderson, now Mrs. De Navarro. George C. Tyler, managing director of the Liebler firm, has devoted the better part of a year to choosing the player of this all-important part. It was offered some time ago to Forbes- Robertson, whosé engagements in ‘The Passing of the Third Floor Back” pre- vented his acceptance. Waller was the next choice, and the contract with him has just been signed. He has never been in America, but will shortly sail for New York to create the role of Boris at the Century theater in that city. During his American engagement he will appear at a limited number of matinee performances as “Henry V,”’ a character with which he has long been associated in England. Waller’s stage career began in 1883, when he played with J. L. Toole in “Uncle Dick’s Darling.” He has since been seen at the head of many notable productions. He toured with Mme. Modjeska and Mrs. James Brown Pot- ter, and hhs been associated with John Hare and W. H. Kendal in the manage- ment’of the St. James theater in Lon- don. Later he appeared with Julla Neilson, Wilson Barrett and Mrs. Lang- try. Then he played a season in ‘‘Hy- patia” under Beerbohm Tree’s manage- ment, afterwards touring with his own company in Oscar Wilde’s “A Woman of No Importance.” His great produc- tion of “Henry V” was first made at Lyceum theater fn 1899 Among his other famous characters are “Briga- dier Gerard,” “Monsieur Beaucaire,’’ “Othello,”” D’Artagnan in “The Three Musketeers,” and Jim Carston in ‘“‘The Squaw Man.” In the latest London re- THIS t Sf D PIANO vival of ‘The Rivals’ he played Captain j lf 4 hit THIS UPRIC Te Absolute.

President Authorized to Ask Their Participation at San Diego, Cal. WASHINGTON, Aug. 19. — The House today passed a resolution au- thorizing the President to invite Mexico and the Republics of Central and South America to participate in the Panama-California Exposition at San Diego, Cal., in 1915. The exposi- tion was described as a branch of the Panama Canal celebration to be held at San Francisco. Republican Leader Mann’s amend- ment providing that the invitation shall not be extended until the Pres- ident is satisfied that a suitable site has been selected and not less than *$2,000,000 has been raised were in- corporated in the resolution, eee TWO CANDIDATES FOR “QUEEN OF A PARISH

The Plain Truth Is This Rupture—as explained in our free book —can't be relfeved or cured—can’t even be kept from growing worse—unless con- stantly held in place. Just as a broken bone can’t “knit” unless the parts are held securely together.

NP COMMON. IN STATE, DOCTOR SOULS WARNING Secretary of. Missouri Health Board Publishes Bulletin of Advice About Disease.
ABOVE ALL, SWAT THE FLY Dr. Hiller Says Patients Should Be Segregated and All Food Should Be Screened.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Aug. 19.— Typhoid fever is prevalent through- out Missouri, according to Dr. Frank B. Hiller, secretary of the State Board of Health. The enidemic is due, he believes, to the long drouth and the reduction of the water sup- ply. Flies, he Savs, are the dissem- inators of typhoid and he cautions the people against permitting them in infest their homes. The sanitary intelligence of the community, he says, can be measured readily by the existence of typhoid fever. Where filth is permitted to accumulate and where unsanitary conditions generally obtain, there typhoid flourishes. Proper sanita- tion, he says, can suppress that dis- ease altogether. Following is on this. subject: “Typoid fever is an infectious and communicable diseasa. It is pro- duced by a germ. This germ is tak- en into the human organism through the medium of water, milk and food. “It is a disease which attacks the vigorous and healthy, as well as those who are enfeebled. Faulty sanitary conditions are chiefly re- sponsible for the prevalence of this disease and reports made to the Board of Health show that in in- sanitary communities, the prevalence of typhoid fever is exceedingly great. It Is Preventable, “The very existence of typhoid fever is an index of the sanitary in- telligence of a community. This dis- ease is a preventable one and the public should’ exercise every means at hand, looking to the suppression of the disease. Prophylactic meas- ures should begin with the care of those sick front typhoid fever and should be exercised, as well, by those free from the disease. “One having typhoid fever should be segregated from the family. The windows of the sickroom should be adequately screened. The one having eare of the sick should exercise que measures in disinfecting all excreta coming from the patient, and a thor- ough dGisinfeection of the bedding, linen, dishes, ete., with which the pa- tient comes in contact, should be made, “In those communities in which the disease is prevalent the people. should see that all water used for drinking purposes is first boiled; milk should likewise be boiled. Vegetables Infected. “The typhoid fever germ reaches food largely through flies, therefore all food and milk should be thorough- ly screened and covered, and people should decline to buy food which has been exposed to flies or other carriers of infection, “Green vegetables largely become infected because of sewage which Is used as a fertilizer. Water becomes contaminated because of the gérm raining entrance to the supply as Jit is drained from contaminated soil. The typhoid fever germ will live in soil for weeks and is carried about in par- ticles of dust, and in this mdnner water and food is also contaminated. “As to flies, the following rules should be observed by the public: “Prevent flies from gaining admit- tance to your house by closely screen- ing all windows and doors. “Don’t permit them to come in con- tact with food. ‘Refuse to buy food stuffs where files are tolerated. “Don’t eat in a place where filles have access. “Elies are born In filth; Hve on filth and carry filth around with them. They are known to be carriers of millions of disease germs. ‘Don't allow flies to come in eontact with those ill of typhold fever or other communicable diseases. Kill every fly that enters the sick room. “Disinfect and dispose of all dis- charges from the patient. Use liquid poisons, ‘sticky fly papers and traps. Gives Fly Potson, “A splendid fly poison is made by dis- solving one dram of bichromate of pot- ash in two ounces of water. Sweeten the water with plenty of sugar, place this about: the house in shallow dishes. “Breeding places of flies should be sprinkled with chloride of lime or ker- osene. “Garbage receptac les must be tightly covered and cleaned daily. “Cuspidors must be cleaned dally. Keep 10 per cent solution of carbolic acid in them all the time. Don’t use saw dust boxes as cuspidors. “Notify the local health department of any nuisances which may exist in the community.” REWARDED FOR RESCUE a bulletin he issued

IKE McDERMOTT, an 18-year-old Chicago Athletic Associa- M tion athlete, won the National Athletic Union ten-mile championship swimming race under the auspices of the Missouri Athletic Club in the Mississippi River yesterday after-. noon after one of the most spectacular aquatic battles ever wit- nessed in the West. McDermott won rather easily, his margin at the finish being about 30 yards ove: Gus Goessling, of the Missouri Athletic Club, who beat out his clubn.ate, Chauncey Heath, for the place by 6 narrow margin. McDermott’s time was 1 h. 41 m. The record for the event is 1 h. 30 m. 49 s., established by L. B. (‘‘Bud’’) Goodwin of the New York Athletic Club, who won last year, beating Mc- Dermott to the finish line by a scant four feet. From start to finish it was plain to be seen that the struggle for victory OFFICIAL ORDER OF FINISH OF SWIM would narrow down to a battle between Goessling, Heath and McDermott. Mc- - 1.

While it’s no place for the man on the outside a lc ~-- ing in at baseball magnates arranging how to spend their bank rolls, to offer advice, most of us fans rather think Presnahan entitled to an extra punch or two on his meal ticket next time. Roger has done a world for the Car- dinals, ~en if he hasn’t landed a } en- nant, or even if he doesn’t finish .n the first division. He has launched a guns to make a noise in the pennant engagement of 1912. vYhen one considers the difference in and thesteam of 1911, it looks as though an epoch, not merely three years, has passed.

For, even though his club did tire this season, Bresnahan has shown he has “the mak- ings.”’ Most of the fans are well pleased with the 1911 showing.

1G BOB HARMON WINS FROM ALEX THE GREAT IN TWELVE-ROUND DUEL
Jackie Geyer, Though, Loses Second Game to Quakers and Cardinals Gain Only an Even Break in: Double Bill.
FTER Bob Harmon triumphed in a 12-inning pitching duel with Grover Cleveland Alexander in the opening session of today’s double header between the Cardinals and Quakers, Jakie Geyer tired in the second show and lost to ‘‘Smoke’’ Stack. Harmon won, 5 to 3, while the Quakers landed on the right side of a 5-2 tally in the windup. Prior to starting of the matinee, the Cardinals were but a single game behind the Quakers in the National League standing. A double triumph would have put the Cardinals in the, first division again while the Quak- ers would have slipped to fifth place. By the victory ,in the opener the Cardinals gained a tie for fourth place, but by dropping the second game they again fell behind one game of the Philadelphians’ mark and are’ till in fifth place. The Cardinals pushed two runners over the plate in the first inning of the opening contest. Huggins drew & pass and tallied on Oakes’ double to left. Koney moved Oakes up with a sacrifice and “Rebel” scored on Ellis’ triple to «right. On Evans’ grounder to Knabe, Ellis was caught at the plate and Alexander’ tossed Mowrey. out. Knabe made the circuit for the Quakers on a pass, Paskert’s single, Lobert’s sacrifice and Magee’s out, Smith to Koney, in the home first. The Quakers tied the score in the second session. With one out, Knabe again drew a pass. Otto stole second end scored on Lobert’s” single to rizht. The latter tried to take sec- ond on the throw and was retired, Evans to Harmon to Smith, The Cardinals again jumped into the lead in the fourth inning. Ellis got a double when Paskert and Magee nearly collided on the run after his fly. Rube moved up on Evans’ ,out, and scored on Mowrey’s single. Mike stole second, but was caught at the plate trying to score on Smith's sin- gle to right field. With one out in the home team’s half, Ti¢us was safe on Huggins’ fum- ble. As Silent John hurt his leg, Beck took his place. On Bransfield’s single to left, Ellis’ throw to Mowrey caught Beck at third. Harmon tossed cut Doolan. Knabe prevented Harmon from scoring in the fifth round. Harmon reached third at the start of the inn-
ing on his safe bunt and Alexander's wild throw. Huggins gave Bransfield a fly. Oakes’ liner looked safe, but Knabe gave a plunge and knocked down the ball and threw “Rebel” out at first. Harmon was compelled to remain at third and he died thers when Koney put up a fly to Doolan. Ellis opened the sixth by getting a pass only to be doubled up with Evans on the latter’s grounder to Knabe. Mowrey also receivedsa pass, but he was thrown out try ing to steal second, After Smith went out in the seventh session Bliss singled to left and took second on Harmon’s out, and was left as Knabe threw Huggins out. The fanning of Bransfield in the Phillies’ half was followed by Doolan hitting to the right-field wall for three bases. Mowrey went into the air and got Madden’s' bounding grounder and threw to Bliss, heading off Doolan at the plate. Koney singled to center in the eighth, but Madden nailed him when he tried to steal second. Paskert met a similar fate in the Quaker’s half after hitting safely. Bliss made a perfect throw to Huggins. Mowrey walked ang stole second in the eighth, and Bliss was also given a stroll, but Harmon wound up the session by being called out on three pitched balls, The Quakers rallied in their half and evened up the count. Beck opened the round with a drive over the right-field wall for a home run, tieing the score, 3—3. Smith threw Bransfield out and Doolan doubled to left. Ellis fell after going near the wall for the ball and hurt his leg, but continued in the game. Oakes landed Madden’s.fly and Alexander beat out an infield grounder. It was up to Knabe, and he failed by fouling to Mowrey. Only one runner got on the sacks in the next two innings, this being Bransfield, who singled in the eley- enth. Bliss Paves the Way for Victory in Twelfth With Ripp:ng Double HE Cardinals finally broke up the game in the twelfth. For a starter Smith struck out. Bliss, owever, doubled to left. Then Harmon laid down a bunt and Alexander tried for Bliss at third. He threw past Lobert, and Bliss scored, while Har- mon reached second on the error.

‘START LAST SERIES WITH BROWNS TODAY 73 HE world’s champion Athiet- T ics of Philadelphia inaugu- rate their third and final series of the season, with the Browns at Sportsman’s Park this afternoon, starting at 3 o'clock. Three games will compose the cuP- rent battling. To date the Athletics own eight victories in as many contests staged with the Browns on the home field. Manager Wallace says he will use Roy Mitchell or Fari Hamilton in the opener. Manager Mack will likely call on Chief Ben- der or Jack Coombs. HEDGES OBTAINS THREE NEW MEN Pitcher Brown, First Baseman Miller and Outfielder Bonnin Sold to Browns. President Hedges of. the Browns last night announced that he had pur- chased three new players, They are Outfielder Bonnin of the Columbus (American Association) team and Pitcher Elmer Brown and First Base- man Ray Miller of the Akron (Ohio and Pennsylvania League) team. They will not report until the close of the seasons in their respective leagues, Bonnin played in only 18 games at the begipning of the season for the Columbus team. Then he broke an ankle, ang only recently has beep hobbling about, However, in the short time that he played he showed signs of being able to hit the ball. He bat- ted an even .400 while playing in the association, Pitcher Brown is the leading twirler of his league. He has worked in 24 games to date and has won 20 and lost 4. Five of these have been .shut- outs and in none of the blank con- tests has he allowed more than four hits to the opposition. He is a right- hander and owns the fastest ball in the league. Miller has played in 110 games and owns a batting average of .343. He has been to bat 381 times, made 132 hits, including 38 doubles, 6 triples and 4 home runs. He is sixth in the list of batters and ranks only 28 points behind the leading hitter of the league. It was announced late nast night in Quincy that the Browns had ob- tained Pitcher Spencer, the hard hit- ting twirler of the Quincy (Three I league) team. BIG SIX LOSES 23D GAME TO THE REDS NEW YORK.

Twice the Nationals tied up the score after “the Browns had taken the lead. Then in the tenth round, they jumped onto Jack Powell for four runs. It seemed that the game was hopeless- ly lost. but the tall-enders rallied and had scored three tallies when Johnson stepped to the hill and stopped the rally. Powell was found for 12 hits. He also received poor support, Jimmy Aus- tin and Bill Hogan being the worst offenders. Dixie Walker started twirl- ing .for the Nationals, but after three runs were tallied at his expense in the opener, he gave way to Bob Groome, who did fairly well until the tenth. Austin Makes Costly Error. With one gone in the opener, Schae- fer singled. Clarence Walker beat one to Austin and when Jimmy threw past Gust, Schaefer scored and Walker went to second. when McBride lifted to Meloan, Walker raced to third. Walker and Gessler pulled a double steal, Walker crossing with tite Nationals’ second run. Starting for the Browns, strolled an@ moved up.on Austin’s sac- rifice. Schweitzer also coaxed a pass. Then Laporte singled to center and Me- loan scored while Schweitzer raced to third. He tallied on Hogan’s sacrifice fly. Clarke followed with a double to right and Laporte crossed, being aided by Gessler’s wide return. The Nationals tied it up in the third when Schaefer singled, stole . second. went to third on Clarke’s low throw and scored on Walker’s infield hit. The Browns, however, again jumped . into the lead in the fifth. Austin got a life when McBride fumbled his roller and moved to second on Schweltzer’s — infield demise. Laporte again singled — and Austin registered. Jimmy Austin again paved the way ifor the Nationals to tie it up when he threw McBride’s roller wide in the seventh after George had singled. Conroy sacrificed and Cunningham singled, scoring the former Cardinal, That made it 4—4, Powell Pounded tn Tenth. It remained tied until the tenth. - Then Powell blew up. Groom started the rally with a single down the third-base Iine. Milan elso singled, and Schaefer moved thm up 7 @ sacrifice.

rere it did any good to threaten the um- pires and occasionally take a wallop at one of them. My answer is that if you didn’t stand up for your rights they’d give you the worst of it. If an umpire made a mistake in the rowdy days the whole team would crowd around him and threaten his life. Would that scare him? Ishould say yes, and the next time a close de- cision came up, he would even up for the bad one previously handed down. IT IS NOT NOW LIKE v 7 Jan threw out Huggins. Then Oakes NEW YORK. beat out an infield single and Har- mon scored the second run of the in- Bing. Oakes retired the side when he was caught trying to pilfer. ' The Quakers threw a «light scare into the Cardinals in the twelfth, but mo damage was done. Thomas went fm to bat for Alexander and drew a pass. Knabe popped to Smith, but Paskert singled over second, After Lobert lifted to Oakes, Magee was hit by a pitched ball. That filled the bases, and with Beck at the bat it looked dangerous. He had tieq up the game with a homer in the ninth, but this time Ellis made a sensational eatch of hig high foul, Stack and Geyer were the opposing twirlers in the second affair.

Incidentally, Elberfeld is probably the champion ‘‘daddy”’ of the big leagues. He is the father of six living children. He lost three boys, and of those re- maining five are girls.

os mene FLANDERS BEATS FORD ON PROTEST Cross State Run of Fifteen St. Louis Autos Most Trying Ever Attempted by Men In Trade.
The Dorris car carried off the hen- ers with a perfect road score and a perfect technica] examinatien in the St Louls-Kansas City run ef the Auto- mobile Manufacturers and Dealers’ As- sociation, which finished Thursday aft- ernoon. The Dorris came through with- eut a single adjustment of any kind with a mileage exceeding 750, made in the four days of the run, and had but two tire punctures. The car was driven by J. EB. Baker, who is head demonstrator and tester for the Dorris Motor Car Co. The Ford car, which was awarded the trophy in the runabout class, did not The Technical Committee gave the Ford No. 6, driven by Bagley, a perfect bill of health and it had a perfect road score, so that the referee made it the award. The driver of the Flanders, No. 6, B. W. Scott, however, filed a protest, al- leging that the Ford carried a cutout and had a wrapped steering wheel, both of which were not stock equipment. The result was that Secretary Lee of the association received a telegram late Saturday, stating that the protest was sustained and that the award would be made to Flanders No. 6, which had two points against it. The closeness of the score put the victor and loser almost on the same par. Followed State Highway. The route followed going to Kansas
City was by what is known as the | Northern Highway. That on the re- turn trip was practically the Central Highway, which has just been adopted by. the State Highway Commission. It covered on the return every one of Bg towns on the approved State Highway. These roads were found to be in the most excellent condition, but there were many bad sections which were trying on the cars. In fact, with the exception of the 1910 Glidden tour, no reliability tour has ever been attempted which had as many extreme road conditions to meet. The scores charged against some of the cars were very unfortunate, bccause they were due to matters not under the fections In the car. Thus the Interstate was penalized 60 points for being late at the control, hav- ing lost the confetti and the route. The Parry oar was penalized for a motor atop which was due to water getting into the carburetor at a deep ford. The Cadillac was disqualified because the driver misunderstodd his rights in doing work on his car inside the noon contro! at Warrensburg. : The Ohio car met with a series of amall disasters which in no way re+ flected on the car, but which compelled its withdrawal] the morning of the third day. This was after two days of per- fect road score. The Hudson car lost zome points because it was late into the
control—another case of lost road. The Marmon drove 50 miles out of its

way and sprung a water leak in the strain to make up time. Efficient Official Odds. The confetti and pilot car was fur- nished by W. M. Johnston of the Bohen-Faught Co., and it made a fine run up to the last day, when repeated tiré troubles put it behind the Amplex and the confetti man, Dr. Camden Woofter, was taken into the Amplexz, the pace maker. The Amplex made the entire trip in remarkable time and without a mis- hap of any kind; not even a tire puncture, One of the best and most consistent scores was made by a nonocontestant Ford; driven by C. 8. Gilpin, a well- known St. Louis cigar man. Mr. Gil- pin furnished his car for the use of the starter, and it made the entire round trip with nothing more serious than a disarrangement of the timer. The examinations made by the ‘Technical Committee Thursday after- noon were most thorough and cover- ed every point in the mechanism of the cars, a loose fender bolt even counting against. the cars record Under the circumstances the records of the Dorris and Flanders, going through with perfeot technical as well as road scores, were remarkable, the hard roads and the lengthy tour being considered. An Extra Prise Oup. The Technical Committee consisted of A. C. Webb, chairman; Chas. A. Marien and R. R. Van Antwerp. They were assisted by the A. A. A. official, w. P. M. Btevens of Kansas City. The Contest: Committee which ar- ranged the run and superintended it consisted of John H. Phillips, chair- man; A. C. Webb, W. C. Anderson, Herman Schnure and BH. P. Rhodes and Robert E. Lee, secretary. The officials of the run had their hands full. In particular was this the case with F. H. Pingree, chief observer, who was compelled to check in every car at each control, assign the ob- ‘servers to the cars for the next run
Ss Excelsior Auto-Cycle and to get away first the next morning, The St. Loufs Motor . Accessories’ Association donated a handsome cup to be awarded to the car, regardless of class, which has the highest total score. The Dorris gets it. The tourists had a remarkable re-
ception at Waverly, Mo., the noon stop the second day. The Commercii] Club filled them up with corn, fried chicken, watermelon, other dainties, including “home-made ham,” and then invited them to come again. The Automobile Club of Kansas City also entertained the St. Louis crowd with a vaudeville’ entertain- ment, FORD CONTEST AWARD TO FLANDERS When told of the action of the Con- test Board of the A. A. A. tn sustaining the Flanders protest against the Ford car in the St. Louls-Kansas City run, W. C. Anderson of St. Louis, manager of the Ford Motor Car., said: “I can assure you that this matter will be taken to the highest appeal board in the A. A. A. I have searched the rules book and cannot find where there is any interdiction of the wrapping of a steering wheel with twine. to give a good grip nor anything about tying open the muffler cut out. Such things can- not possibly have anything to do with winning or losing a contest nor with a cars usefulness and I am sure the wisdom of the Contest Board will pre- vent its gnembers from putting out rules that would make it seem foolish. “We have demanded that the cup in this contest be not awarded until our protest against this protest is acted upon and we fee!) sure that the Ford, having had a perfect road score and a perfect technical examination, will eventually get this cup.”’ THIRTEEN ENTRIES IN FOX GLIDDEN TOUR The contests for the Glidden tour- ing trophy have for seven years past demonstrated to the public at large the merits and advantages of the modern motor car. The eighth con- test for, this classic trophy which will be oonducted by the American Automobile Association, starting from New York Oct. 14, and ending at Jacksonville Oct. 26. will continue to Sive material proof of motor car re- liability, The elimination of the many téch- nical details and restrictions here- tofore imposed now makes it possible for the individual tourist who is the owner of a bona fide touring car or runabout to go'through the tour with the minimum of expense and in- convenience and. the maximum en- joyment of the pleasures of real tour- ing, while at the same time aiding the great cause of road improve- ment, The competitive feature of the tour is strongly impressed by the actives formation of representative teams of three cars each to compete for the Glidden trophy, not only by towns and cities along the route, but by those adjacent thereto and even by neighboring and distant sections. Teams may be looked for from Har-
tomatoes and. REMARKABLE TRIP ACROSS CONTINENT Harry Davis, who represented the United States Tire Co. on the ocean- to-ocean tour which ended in Los Angeles last week, “was one of the first of the party to return East. He reached New York Monday and ! particularly enthusiastic over the results of this tour and-the possibili ties of similar trips in the future. “Tt was by all odds the greates* motoring stunt ever pulled off,” said Mr. Davis in commenting on the trip. “When you stop to consider the fact that 12 cars carrying 40 men, women and children, covered every inch of the distance between Atlantic City and Los Angeles without the slightes: mishap te any of the cars or a single person riding in them, it is a record that will go down in automobile his tory. Outside of a few delayed meals some bad stretches of road through Wyoming and Utah and. severa! nights spent in barns, the backs of cars and in the open, there wasn't an incident oonnected with the enfire trip that could be called unpleagmnt. There were times of course when tpaveling became rather tiresome, but one night's rest was always sufficient to blot out the monotony of the pre- vious day. 4 “The hardest going we had was af | crossing the desert between Ogden and Reno, @ distance of about six hundred miles. The road we encoun: tered on this barren stretch was very much héavy sand as one would ex- pect. The chief trouble with these desert highways is their roughness.’ | PAT CLARKE’S BACK FOR HIGHWAY STAND The Automobile Club of St. Louis is supporting the “Lincoln Memorial Highway” movement, that is, the es- tablishing of a highway between Washington, D. C., and the historic pattlefield of Gettysburg, as a fitting memorial to Abraham Lincoln. Champ Clark, Speaker of the House, has declared himeelf in favor of the movement, and Congressman Bor- land of Missouri, headed the delega- tion which recently visited President Taft on behalf of the proposed High- way Memorial The Automobile Club of St. Lonis sent the following telegram to Mr. Clark: “The Automobile Club of St. Louls congratulates you on your favorable attitude toward the Washington- Gettysburg Highway as the most practicable form of a memorial to Abraham Lincoln. “There has a been great awaken- ing in the good roads movement in Missouri recently, which we hope will result in roads, such as Pike County has shown us how to bufld,

“A wave of the hand, indicating the driver’s intention to either wait for pedestrians to cross or to g0 ahead, will s@ve many accidents and narrow escapes at street corners,” says an expert. “It is a small thing, but will often avoid trouble. Even when a person is not hit, being compelled to more or less acrobatic- ally jump out of:the way of an on- rushing mudguard when the person thought it was safe to proceed, is liable to make a decided enemy who perhaps may make it uncomfortable for motorists.”

and we think you reflect the true sentiment of the great State of Mis- sourt!, which you represent, in favor- ing this proposition.” SPEEDERS TO SPOT THE SPEED SPOTTERS There is much controversy over the new automobile law, and espectally over the speed regulation clauses, and local automobilists - are frequently befng stopped by St. Louls County of- ficials, who are laying out speed traps of a half-mile distance, and ar- resting them for exceeding the speed. limit. The ,pAutomoDdile Club of 8t. Louis has always taken a stand against lawless ang reckless driving, and in no way would sanction the violating of the law. Neither will it sanction or tolerate the persecution of its members by unjust arrest and fines. “Speed for onerhalf of a mile is only prima facie evidence,” said a club officer. A driver may be going at the rate of 30 miles an hour in that given space and yet not be ex- ceeding the speed limit. Automo- bilists should remember thig and not give up their fines to the Justice of the Peace, but appeal their cases,” The club will place motor cyclists at the speed traps to have as wit- nesses in case of persecution. 1912 OUTPUT WILL

EXCEED 210,000 CARS Benjamin Briscie, president of the United States Motor Company, makes the statement that the year 1912 would see the greatest production of motor cars in the history of the industry. Pie expressed the opinion that the pro- duction ef power-driven machines next year will be not less than 210,000, aside from motor trucks. He further says that 6 per cent of these passenger vehi- cles will be for utility purposes as the motor car has now become such an !m- portant addition to modern civilization that every man who has to travel any distance must have a car or fall be- hind in the fast moving world of busi- ness. MOTORCYCLISTS TO TOUR. Motor cycle riders of the various clubs, expecting favorable weather Sunday, have planned a number of runs in the vicinity of St. Louls. The combined mileage of these riders will be close on 1200.. The roads are reported to be in excellent condi- tion, by scouts sent out during the week. Richard Hurck, W. J. Whitler, Clem Ferguson and Fred Sturdy have planned a run to Washington, Mo, Carl Brandenberg, Leo Hamm, Al- fred* Mayer, Charles Welsenfels, Charles Bart and Fred Collet will head for St Peters, Mo. Holman Johnson and Harry Col- Iins will try and burn up the roads from St. Louis to House Springs, Mo. There is always a hearty welcome given to the motorbicycle riders by residents along the country high- ways. ; risburg, York, Baltimore,, Washing- ton, Roanoke, Winston-Salem, Ander- son, Salisbury and Macon, as well as New York, Atlanta and Jacksonville. and Detroit, Chicago and Indianapolis and many other towns and cities in the United States and the progress of such teAms during the running of the tour will afford most interesting and competitive conditions, Entries so far are a Garford, three Maxwells, a Pierce, a Stevens-Duryea. a Marmon, a Cole, two Cadillacs, a Cunningham and two Reos. Other entries, a large number, have been proinised. : Inasmuch as under the present plan the National Tour is a good roads and tourists tour, witfout technical ex- amination or technical penalties, it is open to any owner of a bona fide touring car or runabout, and is to be run under Grade IV Reliability rules of the A! A. A and “Supplementary Regulations,” waiving the necessity of technical registration. PREPARING FOR. RACES ON ST. LOUIS TRACK Fred Strang has: been sent to Chicago to meet Chairman 8. M. Butler of the Contest Board of the American Auto- mobile Association to arrange for races in St. Lonis the first week in October. Tt is announced the mile banked track at Maxwelton; ‘just west of Wellston, will be finished by that time.

C., Aug. 19.— Tuesday, Aug. 22, at 2 p. m., has been framed up as the probable day and hour when the extraordinary session of Congress will adjourn. Senate and Hiouse leaders have agreed to the pro- gram and Chairman Underwood of the Ways and Means Committee has promised to do all possible to have the legislative work concluded by that date. He will do. better and try to have the adjournment arranged for Mondoay night, if thet can be ac- complished, The Senate passed a concurrent res- olution, in accordance with the agree- ment. It was sent to the House for the action of that body. Vice-President Sherman, Senator Penrose and other regular Republic- ans implored Underwood to hold the House in continuous session and ad- journ some time tomorrow, under leg- islative date of this day, but he re- fused. When the resolution came up in the Senate for adoption Bailey opposed it, saying the President would have an opportunity to pocket veto the cot- ton bill, with its steel and chemical amendments. He desired the session extended until the President was forcég to indicate his reasons for not approving the measure. Realizing that adjournment was at hand, Bailey. said, he presented some figures to demonstrate that the reduc- tion of duties on hides and lumber only lowered the price obtained by the producer. He said the farmers lost $18,000,000 a year through,hides being placed on the free list. Senator Bailey and Page had a long argument over the monopoly in hides. Page insisted that the big Chi- cago packers entirely dominated the industry, while Bailey declared to the contrary. ' The adoption of the adjournment resolution was also opposed by Sen- ator Owen.

C., Aug. 19.—The House passed the Statehood resolution which was adopted in the Senate yes- terday at 5:40 o’clock this afternoon. The debate was bitter at times. » Chair- man Flood of the Committee on Terri- tories virtually charge Presidént Taft with bad faith. He said that a sub- committee of this committee had called on the President before the first reso- luhon was drawn, obtained his views and embodied them in the resolution. In presenting his resolution Flood said: “‘Under the resolution, which was formerly passed, the recall amendment to the Arizona Constitution was to be submitted to the voters, but whether they adopted it or not, the State was to come into the union. The present resolution requires that they shall adopt it. It forces the people of Arizona not only to vote upon the amendment, but to adopt it. “This resolution was prepared to meet the views of ihe President as expressed In his veto message. “I want to ask the gentleman this question’’ said Norris of Nebraska. ‘I have heard it stated several times that in the other resolution, which has been vetoed, that the committee had an un- ‘derstanding before it reported on the conference with the President as to what the resolution should contain.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 19.—The fifty-seventh annual convention of the International Typographical Union ended here today, after the administration wing of the union, which favors a liberal policy in dealing with employers and the avoidance of strikes so far as possi- ble, had been sustained in every issue coming before the convention. The laws committee, which has won on every indorsement it has made in the last ten years, passed through the con- vention with its record unbroken. The most import&nt Items of the work of the convention were: the adoption ofa tentative arbitration contract, liberal in its provisions, to be submitted to the American Newspaper Publishers’ Asso- ciation Jan. 1; the decision to resubmit the vote abolishing piece work to a ref- erendum; the raising of the number o union petitions req@Mred to initiate -legis- lation from 50 to 100; the voting of a per capita assessment of 2% cents for the defense of John J. and James Mo- Namara; the passing of resolutions urg- ing drastic Asiatic exclusion laws; and the decision not to Invest the old age pension funds in bonds, but to keep them for fighting resources. The new arbitration agreement takes the place of the present agreement, which will expire May 1 next.

several weeks | HBA ASSER Spectal te the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Aug. 19.—James Sidney Mc- ‘Cullough, husband of Myrtle Reed, the gifted novelist who died by her own hand, arrived home this morning, and immediately went into hiding. The funeral, which had been set for 2 Pp. m., was cemteaana? until he could be found. Later, he said toa reporter, who dis- caveread him on the lake shore, “My wife was insane. Her condition was due to nervousness and the drugs which she habitually took to allay her nerve dis- orders. That is all I have to say.

If he was a few minutes late at fdiiner, she would imagine something terrible had happened, and thus she tended to, become worse as time went cn,”’ * The failure of her husband to return home for dinner on her wedding anni- versary is cited by her parents as her culminating sorrow. Then he left home without seeing her. In her last article in a morning newspaper, written March 29, she attacked the stronger sex. She wrote: ‘ “The great charm of marriage, as of life itself, is its unexpectedness. The only way to test a man is to marry him.

F rieze 200 F eet Long and Fight Feet
High, Containing Thousands of Figures in Alto.and Bas Relief. Will Tell the Sacred Story in the Dome of. Saint Louis’ Noblest E-difice : bo HEN the stations of the cross, .done in white marble, are placed. in the New St. Louis Cathedral boulevard and WNew- stead avenue, they will form an endur- ing monument to the artistic ability of an American woman. Miss Melva Beatrice .~Wilson, the first American woman sculptor to attempt such large ecclesiasti- cal work, was awarded the commission for the stations, in competition with the best artists in the country. Her ‘designs recently ‘were accepted hy Archbishop Glennon, ‘and she now. is begin- ning the ‘second year of her four-year task. There is not in all the world a prodéession of stations like that being carved for the New Ca- thedral. The completed frieze. 8 feet in height, will be miore than 200 feet long and will contain possibly thousands of figures, many of which will be 6 feet high. The frieze will be mounted in two semi-circles on the curving walls of the transept, 15 feet above the floor. ! Unlike the usual form of stations, which are 14 separate paintings or groups in stone, those of the New Cathedral will tell an uninterrupted story from beginning to end. From each of the 14 principal groups in alto relief, processions of figures will dwindle in bas relief in the distance and again advance from the background to the next group. Thus will the story of the cyclorama be continuous, from the Condemnation to the Entombment. The frieze will be divided into two sections, 7 stations being placed in either semi-circle of the transept. Miss Wilson intends that this work for the New Cathedral shall be her masterpiece and shall rep- resent+ the four best years of her life. To that ad she is studying and working with infinite | re, Before beginning her sketches of the sta- ‘ons, she read exhaustively in history, both sacred and profane, concerning the life and death ‘f Jesus Christ. Then she spent months in the yreparation of a wax model to the submitted for -yproval. . Ali the preliminary work will be done at Miss Wilson's studio in the New ‘York - Arts Club, where she resides. When the actual work of ex- ‘ecution is begun, however, she will set up her workshop under the mighty dome of the Cathe- dral and there she will ¢arve on huge blocks of stoné the story of supreme sacrifice. every detail of which she will bave first worked out in wax miniatures. This commission, while. overshadowing all her prior efforts. is not the first one. of importance she has received. Notable among her other work fe the great statue of Christ surmounting the mortuary chapel for Catholic clergy on Long Yeland. Her “Minute Man” is in the Corcoran Gallery at Washington, and many other groupg ahd single pieces of statuary from her studio have attracted wide attention. Among them are a. memorial to the Bishop of Brooklyn; an eques- trian statue of Col. John F. Doyle; “The Spirit id

Continued her literary work simultane- ously and won local renown as a writer ef verses for newspapers. Awarded a prize of $100 and a ticket to New York and advised by her editor to seek a wider field. Found encouragement in the “art col- ony” of New York, notably from Carl Bitter and J. Q. A.

witah of Poetry,” an electrolier; a bronze bust of the late J. Q. A. Ward, dean of American sculptors, and “The Valkyrie,” a spirited group in bronze. Yet all of these, however great, will fade. into . insignificance in comparison with the great frieze of stations for the Cathedral. It may truly be spoken of as a colossal work in sculpture. Miss Wilson says there will be no fewer than 400 full- size figures in the 14 groups of alto relief, while hundreds and hundreds will be depicted in the processions and in the mob which followed the Savior from Pilate’s judgment hall to Calvary. The work of “roughing off” the stone will be done by men, but Miss Wilson will do every de- tail of the art carving after the blocks of marble are ready for the sculptor’s chisel. This notable woman is delightfully ¢c»mocratic. She moves at will in the true aristocracy ‘f in- tellect and the exclusive circles of wealth, yet mo one is too humble to win her consideration. She is brilliant and broad of mind, at one with the great wide world of men and women and events. Indomitable courage is a characteristic at once manifest in her words and deeds. Such an im- mense undertaking as the Cathedral frieze is proof enough of that. But, if other evidence were demanded, one might point to the fact that no Mmrilding or scaffolding can baffle her in the per- sotmance of duty, and that she has pronounced convictions and speaks them emphatically. When her statue of Christ was completed, she did not entrust wholly to men the important task of lifting it to the dome of the Long Island mor- tuary chapr' Instead, she climbed to the top of the building and directed every detail of the work.

It takes courage, no doubt, to sit all night among the «hastly bodies in a morgue, but Miss Wilson, ac-ording to reliable report, worked all night over the head of a murdered man.in the New York morgue while she was modeling a statue of St. John and Salome,” and in that same gloo™y atelier she probably will find models *- gome of the figures in the Cathedral frieze.

- AB's uit pas is ai yD Sete . es OYERISM, the Newest Culinary Sensation. Invention of a Famous London Chef, Abolishes Pots and Pans and Delivers Food The sughly Sanitary and With New and Delicious * ° ° s Flavors eee HE common paper bag is revolutionizing an science older than civ- iligation. It is a mua gician’s cabinet, from which our chefs and cooks: and housewives henceforth will extract perfectly-cooked foods, prepared in a way that reduces expens?, les- sens Jabor and insure; absolute cleanliness. _ « Jn a word, the paper bag ‘'« the most perfect cooking utensil yet. discovered, Such a sugges- tion appears at first glance to have come from the brain of a practical joker, It was regarded as a hoax when given to the world by no lIess an au- thority than Nicholas Soyer, famous chef of Brooke’s Club in London and formerly superin- tendent of kitchens for leading families of the English nobility. But Soyer proved to England that he was right, and subsequent experiments have proved his invention to America. And now, it is only a matter of weeks, or possibly days, until your grocer, butcher, hardware dealer or department store will be offering paper cook- ing bags for gale. “Soyerism,” as the new system has been call- ed, banishes heavy pots and pans and eliminates . the drudgery necessary to care for such utensils. ~* Tt makes a great array of dishes unnecessary. Best of all, it brings the accomplishments of the greatest chef within the ability of every house- wife, ad lends to the food on the poor man’s table all the delicacy and healthfulnesg hitherto found only in viands served to the rich. “Soyerism” Brings About Great Saving in Food and Fuel.
, At, pe tA Hf
66S ccenony. also brings about a great economy. It makes posible a food sav- i ing of 25 per cent and a fuel saving of 40 per cent, besides al] the wonders it accom- plishes in the way of saving labor and time. With paper bags used as utensils, the oven of a gas stove can be made to perform all the duties usually assigned to the battery of burners on top. The gag stove, however, is not the only apparatus by which paper bag cookery can be made successful, Any stove with a good oven will serve as well, although gas for many rea- sons is the cleanest and most convenient fuel. Although Soyer was the first to bring this re- markable system to perfection, he graciously ad- mits that he did not discover it. In his book on paper-bag cookery, now being published in Amer- ica by the Sturgis & Walton Company of New York, he says our forefathers prepared certain foods in receptacles made of coarse paper and that ancient peoples cooked meats in wrappers of leaves and parchments. One of the greatest household economic dreads of the keeper of the home who does her own work is the washing of pats and pans, which she instinctively feels is no fit work for a lady who must show her hands in public. Most housewives will go about their various @rduous household duties with comparative cheerfulness, making light of the labors Inci- _ dent to sweeping and cooking, and even wash- ing the family clothes, only to balk in their minds at the pile of greasy skillets and vege- table encrusted pots left after every meal. Soyer cooking bags, it is claimed, will wipe away from their lives this domestic bugaboo. M. Soyer, until he was 15 years old, intended to be a clergyman. Then his plans were changed and he wes apprenticed to the famous confec- tione*, Papon, at Clermont-Ferrand. There he + learned many ways of using waxed paper in the preparation of certain dainties. It was not until 1, he was graduated, however, that he began his / first experiments which led un to the pérfected a paper-bag cookery. -. Long Search of Soyer to l'ind Aseptic, Greaseproof Paper. 7 HILE Soyer was chef to the Dowager VY Duchess ef Newcastle, he tried the plan 4 _of putting certain foods inte paper te bags and of covering others with sheets of foole- + ap before putting them into the oven. But the _ dags almost invariably exploded with diastrous results and the foods covered by sheets of fools- _ cap always tasted of paper. A The explosions were obviated by filling the ** bags properly, without too much liquid. and by _ putting them on the grating instead of the oven *" floor. This triumph nevertheless was of little 7 gonsequence, since the food still tasted of paper ~~ 40 such an extent that {t could not be eet-n, |} ~The only thing to do was to find a kind cf paper 4 3 ~ which would not communicate its flavor .o the A ge food, and this Soyer did. His research and ex- ao ” periments with different paper fabrics extended Lab -° * over many months, but he was at last successful. ; = The mater{al must be aseptic, pure and grease- pr ie not appear tWat any. great revolution in. paper ~~ zking tc necessary to bring about tle ruccess- PAGE TWO. - See mRAS eee ee eet: SS” Has Ba ed ce 4 ry yi A EEO 3 IGE ee RT ae | RRR $8 eth oe) pe Riss ta hn aa e ¥. ro ME oe ON han 38 Set Fr aw “ ie ea a Se GM irs eee rie aS OE EO ea a " gs Ree, recy ea G * i ee * o« wat ng bits ar res eee > Bae AN le a - SY, a ae we ot OS Hs Bo Sis es PR deeb te Aa 4 Saabs 2 * 2! i

ful application of the paper bag to cookery. All that is required ia that a certain kind of »aper. now used for different purposes, be made into bags, Manufacturers of paper already have per- ceived the opportunity and are preparing to turn out the new kind of bags in unlimited quantities, While Soyer was conducting his experiments, Herr Lampeit, a noted chef of Frankfort, invaded London with atories of new successes in the art of paper-bag cookery. Soyer immediately chal- lenged him to a test of ability, and a “duel” in cookery was fought at the English National School of Cookery. Soyer won with 11 dishes, Even this food, however, tasted of the paper, but the interest created by the “‘duel” aroused the paper makers, and one of the big London man- ufacturers sOon announced that he had discov- ered a way to make tough, sterile, grease-proof paper. -It stood every test and’ “Soyerism” im- mediately became popular. ' The advantages of “Soyerism” are so many that only experience can bring one to realize all of them. One of the most important is its pos- sible effect on the health of the nation. The working out of this result comes under two heads—more sanitary ways of preparation and increased nutritive value of the food when cooked in paper bags. Boyer claims that anything from a stew to & steak can be cooked In a paper bag on the grid or shelf of an oven. The food will retain all its flavor and juices, I¢ will be tender and whole some and free from all contamination by soot, smoke or gas. The most delicate pastries, in- cluding such dishes as milk puddings, can be cooked in paper bags. And any food, so cooked, can be prepared for the table in far less time than by any other method. Certain foods, of course, must be put into dishes and then in- closed in the bags. Others containing a high percentage of liquids, a stew for instance, can be poured directly into the bag and cooked thus. Considering the subject, from the sanitary standpoint, Sir Joseph Lyons, a London epicure, wrote of “Soyerism:” “Tt is a preventive of the congregation of mi- crobes that often gencrate disease. In many sey"
working-class homes, for various reasons, the dishes and pans Iie about on tablea without be- ing cleansed tor hours. The result is that mi- crobes are drawn and are not easily extermi- nated, “Under this system, cleanliness is assured. The microbe has no resting place. The clean bag is at hand, When done with, it can be thrown into the fire and thus it makes possible a clean home for the people,” From the standpoint of the dietician, Dr. Charles Reinhardt, author of “Diet and the Max- imum Duration of Life,” says in Soyer’s book, “Paper-Bag Cookery:” “Man has been differentiated from the mem- bers of the lower creation as the only animal that cooks ita food. The art of cooking is older than: eivilisation, and, in spite of the theories of the ‘uncooked-foods cult,’ is essential thereto. “There are several reasons for cooking most of the foods which we consume, the chief of which, however, may be grouped under two headings: the hygienic and the esthetic. Certain foods are rendered more digestible by efficient cooking. That the opposite result follows the inexpert ef- forts of the amateur chef, no one who hag eaten an all-cooked dinner needg to be told. The heat applied during the process of cooking partly ster- ilizes the food, thereby averting certain dangers we should otherwise meet with. All animal par- asites are killed during the process of cooking, provided that the temperature is maintained for some time at not less than 70 degrees, Centi- grade, but certain bacteria require greater heat to destroy them. “Cooking improves the appearance of most of the foods we eat. It also develops many new, attractive and appetizing flayors which are by no means unimportant, even from the hygienic point of view, as they conduce to perfect digestion, Cooked foods of certain kinds keep longer with- out turning rancid or undergoing objectionable forms of fermentation and decomposition than the same foods which have not undergone the process. Paper Bag Cookery Cleanest and Most Economical. spite of the fact that cooking is so {m- portant where most of our foods are con- cerned, many of the methods employed have the very opposite effect of those outlined above, The food materials are rendered compar- atively indissoluble, and therefore difficult of di- gestion; their most valuable ingredients are either destroyed or washed away and discarded, or being volatile, escape into the kitchen and pol- lute the atmosphere of the entire residence. “Ungkillful cooking of meat completely coagu- lates tne exterior of the joint, jin some cases rendering it unfit for food, whereas the interior iz hardly subjected to the culinary process at all, the result being an indigestible, unpalatable and repulsive mess. “The cooking of vegetables ef all kinds may be no less diastrous to their food value. The nutri- tive and blood-purifying salts are thrown away in the water in which the vegetables are boiled, the volatile oils are dissipateg into the atmos- phere, the organic phosphates, the diastic fer- ments and the health-restoring ‘‘emrymes” are - ideally clean. apt to be destroyed, and all that is left is an insipid mass largely composed of indissoluble cel- lulose, from which a horse or a donkey might ex- tract some amount of nutriment, but which is insusceptible of assimi:ation:- by the human con- omy. “For many years the defects of the ord'nary methods employed in the kitchen have been known to dietitians, and various suggestions for their elimination have been made—~such, for in- stance, as the substitution of the Norwegian hay- box for the kitchen range, or of the “Bainmarie,” as used in France, or the duplex boilerette, al] of which have their good points—but, so far as my own experience goes, no more benefizent end cer- tainly no more strikingly revolutionary method of overcoming nearly all the difficulties attendant upon the culinary art has been devised than that of M. Soyer, who, by the eminently simple de- vice of cooking foods of all kinds in paper bags, of special construction, achieves at once the true object of cooking in a fashion which no-—other method with which I am famitiar can accom- plish. The advantages offered by M. Soyer are numerous and indisputable. “First must be mentioned econsmy. ‘Innere is no loss of the actual food materials, but every- thing is conserved. There is a saving on the outlay upon cooking utensils, pots ‘and pans be- ing dispensed with. There is also a saving upon fuel, for the paper bag being effective non-con- ductors, of heat, an even temperature is main- tained, which effects the cooking with consider- able expedition. “Then there is increased cleanliness. Pots and pans, under the best of conditions, are seldom M. Soyer’s paper bags ure abso- lutely so, and in fact are completely sterile. The objectionable smell of cooking, so often destruc- tive of appetite, is done away with alJtogether. The burning of the foods becomes practically im- possible, and the finished dishes leave nothing to be desired in the point of flavor, tenderness and nutritiveness. “M. Soyer’s device is essentialy a labor-saving one and wil come—when, as it deserves to be, it is universally recognized and adopted—as a boon to all classes without any exception whatever. Having tasted a dozen dishes of the most varied character, cooked under my own observation by M. Soyer, and having discuased the outline of his system with the master chef himself, I am able SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—AUGUST 20, 1911.
to speak both from theoretical and practical ap- preciation.” Paper-bag cookery is truly a boon to bachelors, flat-dwellers and women and girls living alone. A delicious and nutritious meal may be prepared in half an hour, or less, and only the plates, knives, forks and spoons remain to be washed when the food is eaten. The fact that foods do not give off objectionable odors when being cooked in paper bags, commends “Soyerism” to all persons residing in restricted quarters or in apartments where neighbors are many and ill- natured. The temperature of the oven should not be less than 200 degrees Fahrenheit when the food is in-| troduced. It should be reduced in eight minutes tc 170 degrees and kept there until the process of cooking is finished, An oven thermometer is almost indispensable to one who attempts paper- bag cookery. If a gas stove is used, the gas should be lighted about 8 minutes before. the food is put into the oven. Joints and entrees should be placed on the lower shelf of the oven, fish in the middle and pastries on top where the heat is most intense, Soups, with the exception of beef tea, paper bags. Other foods, which Soyer, in his book, says cannot be cooked well in paper are beans, cab- bage, cauliflower, broccoli, artichokes, macaroni and other Italian pastes, omelettes, scrambled cannot be successfully cooked in.

“I went through every department of the . factory.’’ E prizes won last year by aeroplane operators in the United States and abroad reached the immense total of $940,000. Of this sum the Minister of War of France expended $240,000 in a rveet exclusively for military aeroplanes. Paul- han, the Erench aviator, led with prizes aggre- gating $100,000, of which*he earned $20,000 dur- ing one month’s engagement in the United Stats. Grahame-White, the English aviator, earned $50,000 during the year. The supply of birdmen does pot equal the de- mand. The cause of the dearth of aviators is herewith strikingly portrayed in ‘he following ar- ticle by Andrew Drew, a St. Louis balloonist, who has just completed the course ~ of study prescribed in the aviation school conducted at Dayton, O., oy Wilbur and Orville Wright, in- ventors of the aeroplane. Young men of the Southwest who are ambi- tious to become professional aviators, both for the sport and for the financial returns can learn from Mr. Drew’s article, based on personal ex- perience, the difficulties in their path. Andrew Drew qualified as an _ aviator-pilot August 9 on the Wright aviation field near Day- lon. Groom E, Sexton of Chicago, secretary of the Aero Club of Illinois, representing the Aero Club of America, went to Dayton for the pur- pose of witnessing Drew go through the necessary “The next step of my training was on the balancing machine.” aerial maneuvers to entitle him to a pilot’s li- cense.

HAT trasnion is determined to thrust a freak skirt upon us in spite of ourselves, is evident from some of the new models that have re cently made aprearance, We have been hearing about the new slashed skirt and the skirt with a “nick” at the sides, ani here they are, I believe they will have a vogue because they afford such possibilities, es- pecially in gowns of fine pliable fabrics for formal occasions. Fashion has tried everything she could think of in freak skirts in the last few years, from the Diiectoire that even Paris—always thirsting for a sensation—hooted at. Tpat failing, Dame Fashion, designed the sheath, which had a short run—very short—then the’ hobble held us for a time literally. It found favor with the tall and the short, the fat and the lean.

Only a few actrésses seeking publicity and the manne quins hired by the creators of the thing, ever appeared in public wearing it. But here we have a skirt that has already been accepted. The slash appears in such a way as to be perfectly modest and yet fo show a prettily shod foot and a bit of dainty ankle.

The elbow bag has grown in size and is now made to hold a perfume bottle, a handkerchief. a powder puff, a bit of rouze to use when one ig fatigued, a, tiny mirror, and anything else re- quired. : . Fine satin or brocade is used in fashioning the bag, and it may be trimmed as much as one de- sires, with cords of a cont asting color or gold lace set with artificial jewels and stones in colors that will go with any gown. . ‘The beauty veil 1s very much to the fore at present, despite the hot weather. This does not mean a veil that is beautiful. It is an illusiop which makes you beautiful if you are not so: All women who have studied themselves ana their veilg must be fully aware of the fa¢t thai the most perfect complexion heautifier in the world is the veil of fine tulle in ivory or pale pink, and some women have found black. chenilk pin point dots on such a veil to be most flatter. ing.

To make the beauty veil really successful, the finest possible tulle is‘called for, which should exactly match or cloud ti individual's complex- ion.

Theirs is real work—bag-punching, wrestling. tramping for miles, pullmg weights and tugging at rowing ma- chines, dieting and physical culture. For them oy the gain of a pound is unspeakable; another inch in the waist line intolerable. What would Paquin say, or DPoucet, rotund Madame demand those long, should curveless res lines and slender bodies that Paris has decreed? And how would they look even if they could crowd themselves into the gowns of the mode? Why, they’d be simply ij opossible! 2 But it hasn’t gone that far yet. The fat is flying and a slender company of maids and ma- ‘- trons will forsake Newport in the autumn ready for another winter in town, all trained down—fit up on their toes, as the athletes like to say. Take Mrs. Pembroke Jones example. She had typhoid fever not so long ago, and when con- valescence set in Mrs. Jones found her figure los- ing its fine lines and delicate curves. Not for her! There was instantly a talk with a professional physical culturist, and Mrs. Jones was told that if she followed directions ail would be well very shortly. Mrs. Jones obeyed orders like a soldier. In the privacy of her Newport villa, “Friedheim.” she took her physical culture exercises so rigor- ously and uncomplainingly that today her figure is sthe envy of many a Newport grande dame who hasn’t vot attained the dignity of being the mother of a grown-up daughter. Today she is as lithe and slender as she was 20 years ago. > s Mrs. Jones’s task was easy compared to .the * crisis that confronted Mrs, Burke Roche-Batony! ; and Mrs. Herman Oelrichs. Of course, it couldn’t have been said at the time, but it can now—last season these two handsome matrons were actual- ly getting fat! But not now. As their friends are saying frankly enough today, they look 20 years younger and 50 pounds lighter! Of course, it isn’t as much as that, for that much isn’t needed. But, really, both ladies are appearing to great advant- age this season, thanks to the hard work they have done and are doing. ' Both walk prodigiously and each has one sport to which she gives her undivided attention. » With Mra. Oelrichs it is gymnastics; with Mrs. Roche- Batonyi it is fencing. Thus have buth made the fat fairly fly. Mrs. jess than five miles a day, and ten miles, if she can spare the time.

For years Mrs. Roche-.atonyi’s igure was the envy of the women of her set. Tall, graceful, every line perfect, she has the poise of a Greek Statue. But a year or so ago there came a bit of fullness here and too much tissue there—lo! she was in danger of growing really stout. “I’m going to take up fencing,” she told her friends. This was easy, for her daughter, Mrs. Arthur Scott Burden, Cynthia Roche that was, was al- ready an adept at the foils, and she agreed to “take on” her mother every day. Kegularly and persistently did Mrs. Roche-Batonyi go at it, im- proving in skill and grace, and losing her heavy lines slowly but surely. Now she keeps at it to stay where she is, and everybody is remarking how very well the handsome daughter of the late Frank Work is looking since she began to ex- ercise. As for young Mrs. Burden, she rides, swims, dances, fences, plays tennic and walks, and never gains a gram.

To the older women she goes for individual training and instruction. Some of the younger set take their lessons im company and have great fun over it, too. There is Mrs. O. H: P.

She is one of the best half dozen swimmers among the women at Newport, and more than one tennis championship at the Casino has fallen to her slashing racquet. Every day it is some form of regular and sustained exercise, and so she keeps her slender figure as the s€asons come and go. For her, it is a regular course of training.

These they take religiously in the privacy of their boudoirs, following out the rules laid down by Mrs. Baldwin-Cass. This, of course, does not ex® clude other exercise, like tennis or riding, or a dip at Bailey’s Beach late in the mornins. And the dip generally means a good swim—the best of exercise—for all the young matrons of New- port know the art natatorial.

Dieting is not a part of their regimen— Mrs. Baldwin-Cass does not believe in it, and her word is accepted for everything. Their beautiful harmony of figure and grace of carriage are achieved solely through the simple exercises of the boudoir. “Exercise,” says Mrs. Baldwin-Cass, “is absolutely necessary for all who possess the ideal figure of today, or for all who hope to possess it.” Mrs. Stoddard rides to keep her girlish figure, and take@ the aetting-up exercise to boot.

Death in Old Manuscripts..... HE life of a heroic scholag was ended by the death of the Hungarian scholar, Dr. Emericus Karacson, recentiy °© ported from Constantinople. Dr. Kara® son’s chief interest was in Hungaria® history of the 16th and 17th centuries, which is closely connected with the history of the Otto man empire. To consult the Turkish sources, he learned the Turkish language, and when 4 “onstantinople newspaper, the [kduin, published several volumes of Evlia Tshelebi’s Travels, he made a valuable translation of them, to which he added léarned comments. The government of Abdul Hamid, however, was opposed te the pub lication of too many books, even Eviia Tshelebi's 300-year-old manntscripts; it forbade further pub lication and confiscated the volumes already pu® lished. ; Dr. Karacson, with the fimancial support of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, went to Constantinople, and through the intervention of the Austro-Hungarian embassador, succeeded in getting a permit to see the manuscripts there. Most of the libraries and archives of Turkey are kept in mosques and monastarfes, they are not open to the general public, and contain maino- lv ill-cared-for, moldy manuscripts. The student who does his work in comfort can scarcely real- ize the physica] heroism required for researchers in the Turkish mosques. To work for years, day by day, crouching in Turkish posture on a rug, is hardship, indeed; but danger lies im the decayed, musty condl- tion of the manuscripts to be handled. A few weeks before Easter Dr. Karacson suffered & painful swelling of the face. He had scratched himself, and absorbed in his work, chanced to rub the spot with his fingers which were cov ered with fungi from the moldy manuscripts. A quick operation relieved him from his patn, his face regained its normal size, and he seon — resumed his work in the mosque library, ap parently in perfect health. About a month later he was taken {lJ with fever and treated Qrst_ for influenza, then for typhoid fever. His cen- dition grew worse, and a physician diagnosed the case at once as blood poisoning, doubt, by germs from the fungt. a few days of intense ing, being years old, ee

I found him at the Shades Club having something with two other notable Dead Ones whose li es were also associated with fish. Jonah was one and the other was the Norwegian party you used to see in the patent medicine advertisement with an enormous codfish swung over his back ty a rope. You no doubt remember the pair of them—the fisherman had a sad look on his -ace, probably because he had to tote that large dead codfish home, and the codfish had a sad look on his face, too, brought on, I take it, by having inside of him the kind of.a liver that they get cod liver oil from, I know that if I ‘iad that kind of a liver inside of me.

I explained t!is 8 .uation fully to him, and then I told him that inasmuch as a con- siderable period had elapged wine his fust!; cel- ebrated work came off the presses, and, further- more, as there had been a considerable number of changes in the art of fishing since the days cf his greatest activity, I thought at few words from him at this time would be both appropriate and appreciated. He seemed to agree with me, for, after he had told Bacchus, who was acting as one of the club stewards, to bring us fresh glasses and cigars, he took a feflective sip and said: “SMishing, considered both as an art and as a ‘alling, is the same now, in at least one respect, that it always was It is a noble sport-—when you do it out of a book.

She is Mrs. Mary EB. Ewing, widow of the late William Bion Ewing, a prominent civil and consulting engineer of Chicas : died a few weeks ago. The story of how Mrs. Ewing hasssuccecaed to her husband’s business, becoming the actual head ef a large engineering company, forms an in- teresting chapter in the annals of woman’s achievements. At the time of his death Mr, Ewing had under wey, or in thé course of planning, work on many gewerage systems and contingent work in nearly a dozen Illinois towns, the total cost of which ran up into hundreds of thousands of do sre How to carry these unfinished contracts Co toh» pletion was the serious problem Mrs, Ewing had to face. | Only two courses were open to her; either to gell her husband's business to some other com- pany, or continue the work herself Afte: a few days’ conside Aion of the matter she decided upon the latter, and %rdingly formed a new company, associating wit: ier a young man who had been in her husband's emplo~ since a boy, and another young engineer o* © /eral- years’ experience, A few days later she took her place at Mr. Ewing's desk and every day since she hag been there conducting the business, looking after every detail of the office work and personally directing many of the fleld operations. It was necessary, of course, that Mrs. Ewing should first Secure the consent of the companies and village boards with whom her husband had contracts. She, therefore, appeared before each of them in turn, explaining her knowledge of the Mra. Mary 2, Hwing, of Chicago, work proposed or already in course of congtruc- tion, and her fitness to carry it’on, and it is a remarkable tribute to her technical knowledge and executive ability that every one of the interested officials unhesitatingly voted to pags the contracts into her hands for completion of the work. Mrs, Ewing’s training was secured by inter: esting herself in her husband’s profession and keeping in close touch with his work from the very seco seal of their mp © life, twenty- four years ago. Much of Ws BOwtags sMaanioe for t.e larger contracts was done in the quiet of their home, and so she had an opportunity to see him draw the designs for the different pieces of work and to hear him talk over his plans. They also read and studied many technical books, tegether, and Mr. Ewing would outline his solu- tions of the varians problems that arose as the work proceeded, In addition to this, Mrs. Ewing took ca. at the books, maps, tracings, blue prints, and 4}! reports, and in many other ways “served we «40 eral office boy,” according to her own statement, Bhe also went on many trips of inspection with her husband, and thus was enabled to become familiar with the practical part of the work, Just now Mrs. Ewing is pushing to rapid com pletion an élaborate system of storm sewers and filter beds for the town of La Grange, Illinois. Although fully a hundred men are employed on this work, Mre. Ewing seems to know quite as vell as her field assistants, who are constantly un the ground, just what each one is doing, and what progress i# made in the work each day. The men all seem to realize, too, that in this guiet but forceful little woman is the real power ind guiding hand behind all this scene of activity. “My experience has led me to believe that all sf the engineering professions offer splendid opportunities to women who want to work and who must work,” said Mrs. Ewing. “But first let them be sure they are really interested in the work before attempting to embark upon such @ career, 3 “Now the work I am doing—the building of sewerage disposal plants, water systems, deep well pumps and the like—may not appeal, on the face of it, to every woman. But to me every feature of it is interesting, and in my opinion there is no part of it that is outside of a wom- th would rather hand it to a newsboy or a waiter than to clutter up his pockets with so much chicken feed. “He thinks you ought to have at least $75 worth of regalia, Of course if you’re going to be gone several days and expect to get a few fish big enough to fry in the pan, you'll have to buy more of an outfit than that or forever after for- feit his good opinion. But $73 worth will be enough if you're only organizing say to snare a chub minnow large enough to put on a greasy make-up and masquerade in a can with a French label on it as an imported sardine. F ish Never Behave in Real Life as in the Books. sy" 1U8 equipped, you fare forth a-fishing. And from the very first moment, care marks you for ite own and life ig just one blamed care after another. Somehow the fish won't behave in rea] life as you have been led to believe from reading about them in the proper authorities. You get into a rowboat which starts out by weighing 200 pounds but increases at the rate of a ton ee ute. and you row. until your palms are so fif™ee blisters that you have the sensation of carry® g a bunch of hothouse grapes in each hand. You anchor at what seems to you a favorable spot by the sim- ple expedient of falling overboard with the an- chor, then leaving it there and climbing back in again, You fish, and fish, and fish, and then discover that you've been atationed at the mouth of a popular and commodious sewer for the last hour or two. So you pul) up the anchor and a considerable section of the bottom of the stream with it, and move on. “The sun grows unpleasantly warm—something it never does in the books, Your line, which’you bought under the impregsion that it was a mere plain, simple fishing line, develops a demoniac instinct for snarling up into 9000 different kinds of hard and difficult knots. Your hook insists on catching in the rocks, in the driftwood, in the shore, in the side of the boat, in the tenderer parts of your own person, in the ‘rees above and the earth below. Most of the time if a fish really wanted to bite it he’d have to dig or else climb. But on the other hand, most of the time the fish has no such ambition. If you brought worms, the indicated lure is minnows. If you brought live bait, you should have brought dead, and fre- quently if you wait long enough it will be, but by that time the fish has changed his mind again and wants it brisk and- wriggling. If you have artificial flies, there’s positively nothing doing in artificial flies, and if you have frogs there's not a self-respecti: g fish in the river that would have one, even if you gave double green trading stamps with it. Number Eighty “It ig at this stage that the inevitable smal! boy is supposed to ass jeeringly by, carrying a magnificent string of fish which he caught with a bent pin for a hook, one of his mother’s corset strings for a line and a chair leg for a pole. That is always the way it occurs in the books and funny columns. The only reason why Aesop didn't write the fable-of the unlucky city fish- erman and the fortunate farmer's boy was be- cause it had been running in the comic papers of the period for a considerable time before Aesop ever started. “But if the imaginary smal: boy with the im- aginary string of fish really existed, you couldn't feel any unhappier tham you will feel, as you come trudging homeward carrying an outfit of expensive*equipment which has cruelly deceived you. You will begin to note ab ut this stage that the mere fact of your carrying a fishing rod entitles everybody you meet to make unkind and personal remarks to you. You could carry a bunch of bananas or somebody else's baby or a week's wash or a century plant In your arm: and no stranger would fee) at liberty to address you on the subject, but a fishing rod under your arm is a license for every passer-by to comment loudly upon your qualifications, ~-- | ck of them, for the Hfe of a carefree fisherman.

Mercury is at greatest elongation Kiess comet had a tail a degree and east of the sun on Aus, 12, and should a half in length, and it was visually between the sixth and seventh mag nitude. Spectra taken by Mr, Park: hurst show the typical cyanogen band at 3883, and the carbon band at wave length 4710. The comet was moving southwest when dis- covered. On the morning of July 12, 1911, Director Frank Schleisinger of the Allegheny Observatory reported that fairly bright comet was seen just ‘ales dawn in the eastern sky. The right ascension is four hours and forty-five minutes and Its de- be visible shortly after sunset a few days before and after this date as an evening star in the west. On the &th Mars is 90 degrees west of the sun and rises at midnight. During August it increases much in brilliancy, rising earlier each night. The glittering orb of light, Venus, which for months bas been resplend- ‘ent with beauty in the western sky is at her maxinium bDrilliancy in August. Her beauty beging to wane as she draws in toward the sun. On Sept. 14 Venus passes the sun and becomes a morning star. Just now, however, she is a beaut!- ful object when seen through a small telescope, showing like a crescent moon half way to the first quarter. Venus so resembles the earth in size and general charagteriatics that she hes been called the “earth's twin sister.” The earth is 7,920 miles in diameter, Venus is 7,700, Are there other points of resemblance beyond mere size and,“moat inter esting question of all, is Venus in- habited I{ke the earth? The celebrated astronomers of past times have been greatly concerned in the possible habitation of other planets, and as telescopes became of greater size so that the planetary detail could be examined more fully, and as general knowledge advanced VENUS ARE IN THE AUGUST SKIE - more and more, the same old ques tioh has been asked again and again. What do powerful telescopes teach about Venus? The greatest of all visual observers, Prof. Barnard, has examined Venus for thirty years with telescopes great and small, in- cluding the great 36 and 40-inch glasses of the Lick and Yerkes Ob- servatories, and under all varieties of conditions, morning, noon and night. He has seen markings on Venus, but of @ very evanescent kind, which change rapidly from hour te hour-—-which are explain- ed by him as some kind of cloud phenomena. ‘No permanent markings of any kind or deseription have ever been seen by him, an ideg which Is in keeping with that of most conserva- tive astronomers. The general idea is that Venus ig covered over densely with clouds; tha¢ at best we can ob- tain but fleeting glances through this permanent atmosphere of clouds, and that consequently we can know nothing at all of the actual] land or water surface of the planet.

And yet, nobody, he is at times!” “That’s true, that’s true,’’ responded the authentic Mrs. Leek. ‘‘He was always so changeable, so queer.” “Queer!” Alice took up the word. “That's it. Queer! I don’t think he’s quite right*in his head, not quite right. He has the very strangest fancies. I never take any notice of them, but they're. there. I seldom get up 1n the morning without thinking, ‘Well, perhaps today he'll have to be taken off.” “Taken off?’ “Yes, to Hanwell, or wherever it is. And you must remember,” she said gazing firmly at the curates, “you've got his blood in your veins. Don’t forget that. I sup- pose you want to make him gv back to you, Mrs. Leek, as he certainly ought.” ‘‘Ye-es,” murmured Mrs. Leek feebly. “Well, if you can persuade him to go,” said Alice, ‘“‘i' vou can make him see his duty, you’re welcome. But I'm sorry for you. I think I ought to tell you that this is my house, and my furniture. He’s got nothing at all. 1 expect he never could save.

He'd deny it like anything. But in the end I dare say you'd be able to prove it.

The Post-Dispatch has chosen his work in its series of the best current novels in cenformi yy with its policy of giving its readers the best fiction that living men are writing. It is divided into four installments—-cne for each Sunday in August. By this arrangement a complete new story is given to the readers | 6 ‘B URIED ALIVE”’ is Arnold Bennett’s latest and best story.

It's a mercy my own poor mother hasn’t lived to see where am today. Aa for my father, old as he was, if he’d been ablive. there'd have been horse- whipping, that I do know.” After some rather point- less and disjointed’ re- marks from the curates, a sound came from the cor- ner near the door. It was John's cough. “Better clear out of this!” John ejaculated. Such was his first and last Oral contribution to the scene. IN THE BATH. Priam Farll was wander- ing about the uncharted groves of Wimbledon Com- mon, and uttering. solilo- quies in language = that lacked delicacy. He had rushed forth in his haste. without an overcoat, and the weather was bluster. ously inclement. But he did not feel the cold: he only felt the keen wind of circumstance, Soon after the purchase of his picture by the luna- tic landlord of a fully li- censed house, he had dis- covered that the fram» maker in High Street knew a man who would not be indisposed to buy such pi-- tures as he coula paint, and him and the frame maker had developed into a regular trade. The usual price paid for canvases was ten pounds, in cash, By this means he had earned about two hundred a vear. No questions were put on either The paintings were delivered at intervals, ang the nuoney received; and Priam knew no more many weeks he had lived in expectation of an uproar, a seandal in the :art-world, visits of police and other inconveniences, for it was diffi- eult to believe that the pictures woula@ néver come be- neath the eye of a first-class expert. But nothing had occurred, and he had gradually subsided into a sense of security. He was happy; hanpy in the untrammeled exercise of his gift, happy in having all the money that his needs and Alice’s demanded: happier than he had been in the errant davs of his glory ana his weaith. Alice had been amazed at his power of earntng: and also, she had seemed little by little to lase her suspicions as [to hig_perfect sanity and truthfulness. In a word, the doxK of fate had slept; and he had taken particular care to let it lie He was in that species of sheltered groove which is absolutely essential to the bliss of a shy ani nervous artist, however great he may be. yy 2», CME, pve. < ‘ err®

The wonder was that the early sins of Henfy Leek had not troubled him long ago. What could he do? He covld do nevething. That was the tragedy—he could do nothing. He could but ‘rely upon Alice. Alice was amazvirg. The more he thought ef it, the more masterly her hand'ing of these pre- pesterous curates “seemed to him. And was he to be robbed of this incomparable woman by ridiculous pro- ceedings connected with a charge of bigamy? He knew that bigamy meant prison, in KEngland. The injustice was monstrous. He saw those curates, and their mute brother, and the aggrieved mother of the three dogging him either to prison or to his deathbed! And how could he explain to AtTiee? Impossibte to explain to Alice! Still, it was conceivable that Alice would not de- sire explanation. Alice somehow never did desire an explanation.

But December rain has a strange, horrid quality of chilly persistence. It is capable of con- quering the most obstinate and serious mental preoccu- pation, and it conquered Priam’s, It forced him to admit that his tortured soul had a fleshly garment and thac the fleshly garment was soaked to the marrow.

No odor, no -teeth- disturbing grind of rack-and-pinion, no trump- eting, with that machine! It arrived before the gate with such absence of sound that Alice, though she wa3 dusting in the front room, did not hear it. She hearid nothing till the bell discreetly tinkied. Justifiably as- suming that the tinkKler was the butcher’s boy, she went to the door with her apron on, and even with the duster in her hand. A handsome, smooth man stood-on th: step, and the electric carriage made a background fo; him. He was a dark man, with curly black hair, and a moustache to match, and black eyes. His silk hat, of an incredible smooth newness, glittered over his glitteriny hair and eyes. His overcoat was lined with astrakan, an:i this important fact was casivally betrayed at the lapels and at the sleeves. He wore a black silk necktie, with a small pearl pin in the mathematical center of the per- fect rhornbeid of the upper part of a sailor’s knot. His gloves were of slate color. The chief characteristic of iis faintly striped trousers was the crease, which seemed more than mertal. His bcots were of glace kid and as smooth as his cheeks. The cheeks had a fresh boyis' color, anj between them, over admirable snowy teeth, projected the locked key to this temperament. It is possible that Alice, from sheer thoughtlessness, shared the vulgar -prejvdice against Jews: but certainly she 41d not now feel it. The man’s personal charm, his exceed- ing niceness, had always conquered that prejudice, when- ever encountered. Moreover, he was only about 35 in yevrs, and no such costly and beautiful male had ever vet siocd on Alice’s doorstep. She at once, in her mind, contrasted him with the curates of the previous week, to the ogo ge Ppa ete I: tablished Church. She did not know that this mah was mire dangerous than a thousand curates. “Is this Mr. Leek’s?” he inquired smilingly, and raise his hat. “Yes,” said Alice with a responsive smile. » “Is he in?’ T HE machine was one of those electric contrivances “Well,’’ said Alice, “he’s busy at his work. You see in this weather he can’t go out much—not to work—and so he” “Could I see him in his studio?” asked the glossy man, with the air of saying, ‘‘Can you grant me this supreme fuvor?” : i Tt was the first time that Alice had heard the attic called @ studio. She paused. “It's about pictures.’®explained the visitor. “Oh! said Alice. “I’ve run down specially to see Mr. Leek,” said tie visitor with emphasis. Alice’s opinion as to the seriousness of her husband's -gift for painting had of course changed in two years. A man who can make two or three hundred a year Oy sticking colors anyhow, at any hazard, on canvases—by producing alleged pictures that in Alice’s secret view bore only a comic resemblance to anything at ali— that man had to be taken seriously in his attic as an artisan. It is true that Alice thought the payment lie received miraculously high for the quality of work done; but, with this agreeablé Jew in the hail, and the coupe at the kerb, she suddenly perceived the probability of even greater miracles in the matter of price. the average price of 10 pounds rising to 15, or even 20 pounds—provided her husband was given no opportua- ity to ruin the affair by his absurd, retiring shyness. “Will you come this way?” she suggested briskly. nd all that elegance followed her up,to the attic door: which door she threw open, remarking simply— “Henry, here is a gentleman come to see you gbout “Will you come in?’ pictures.” A CONNOISSEUR. Priam recovered more quickly than mig!t have been expected. His first thought was naturally that women are uncalculated, if not incalculable, creatures, and that the best of them will do impossible, things—things in- conceivable till actually done! Fancy her introducing 2 stranger,.without a word of warning, direct into his attic! However, when he rose he saw the visitor’s nose (whose nostrils were delicately expanding and contracting in the fumes of the oil stove), and he was at once reassured. He knew that he would have to face neither rudeness, nor bluntness, nor lack of imagination, nor lack of quick sympathy. Besides, the visitor, with practical assurance, cet the tone of the interview instantly. ~ “Good morning, maitre,” he began, right off. “I must apologize for breaking in upon you. But I’ve come to see if you have any work to sell. My name is Oxford, and I'm acting for a collecter.” He said this with a very agreeable mingling of sin- cerity, deference and mercantile directness, also with a bright, admiring smile. He showed no astonishment at the interior of the attic. ; Maitre! ' . Well, of course, it would be idle to pretend that the greatest artists do not enjoy being addressed as maitre. “Master” ts the same word, but entirely different. It was a long time since Priam Farll had been called maitre. Indeed, owing to his retiring habits, he had very seldor: been called maitre at all, A just-finished picture stood on an easel near the window; it repreéented one of the most wonderful scenes in London; Putney High Street at night; two omnibus horses stepped strongly and wil- ingly out of a, dark side street, and under the cold glare of the main road they somehow took on the quality or @questrian sculpture. The altercation of Nights was tn the highest degree complex. Priam understcod imme diately, from the man’s calm glance at the picture. and the position which he instinctively took up to see at, that he was accustomed to looking at pictures. The visitor did not star® back, nor rush forward, nor dissolve into hysterics, nor behave ds though confronted ‘by the She Sa We oe ; 3 3 : ghost of a n.urcered victim. He just gazed at the pictur+, ‘keeping his nerve and holding his tongue. And yet ‘t Was not an easy picture to look at. It was a picture of an advarced experimentalism, ani would have appealel to nothing but the sense of honor in a person not a con- noisseur. ; os “Sell!” exclaimed Priam. Like ‘all shy men he couid hide his shyness in an exaggerated familiarity. “What price this?” And he pointed to the picture. There were no other preliminaries. “It is excessively distinguished,” murmured Mr. Ox- ford, in the accents of expert appreciation. “Excessiveiy distinguished. May I ask how much?" “That’s what I’m asking you,” said Priam, fiddling with a paint rag. “Hum!” observed Mr. Oxford, and gazed in silence Then: “Two hundred and fifty?” Priam had virtually promised to deliver that picture to the picture framer on the next day, and he had not expected to receive a penny more than £12 for it. But artists are strange organisms. He shook his head. Although £250 was as much es he had earned in the previous 12 months, he shook his gray nead. “No?” said Mr. Oxford Kindly and respectfully, putting his hands behind his back. “By the way,” he turned with eagerness\to Priam, “I presume you have seen the por- trait of Ariosto by Titian that they’ve bought for th» National Gallery?. What is your opinion of it, maitre?’ He stood expectant, glowing with interest. “Except that it isn’t Ariosto, and it certainly isn't by Titian, it's a pretty high-class sort of thing,’ said Priam. Mr., Oxford smiled with appreciative content, nodding his head. “I hoped you would say so,” he remarked. And swiftly he passed om to Segantini, then to J. W. Marrice, and then t29 Bonnard, demanding the maitre’s views. In a few moments they were really discussing pictures. And it was years since Priam had listened to the voice of informed common sense on the subject of painting. It wag years since he had heard anything but exceeding puerility concerning pictures. He had, in fact, accustomed himself: not to listen; he had excavated a passage direct from one ear to the other for such re- marks. And now he drank up the conversation of Mr. Oxford, and perceived that he had long been thirsty. And he spoke his mind. He grew warmer, more en- thusiastic, more impassioned. And Mr. Oxford listened with ecstasy. Mr. Oxford had arparently a natural dis- cretion. He simply accepted Priam, as he stood, for a great painter. No» reference to the enigma why a great painter should be painting in an attic in Werter Road Putney! No inconvenient, queries about the great paint- er’s previous history and productions. JuSt the frank, full acceptance of his genius! It was odd, but it was com- fortable. | “So you won't take’ 250?" asked Mr. Oxford, hopping back to bdsiness. ~ “No,” said Priam sturdily. ‘‘The truth is,” he. added, “I ghould rather like to keep that picture for myself,” “Will you take 500, maitre?” “Yes, I suppose I will,” aiid Priam sighed. A genuine eizgh! For he would really have liked to keep the picture. fle knew he had never painted a better. “And may I carry it away with me?” asked Mr. Oxford. “I expect so,” said Priam. . “T wonder if 1 might venture to ask you to come back to town with me?” Mr. Oxford went on, in gentile defer- ence. “I have one or two pictures I should very mucin like you to see, and I[ fancy they m@ght give you pleasure. And we could talk over future business. [If possibly you could spare an hour or Sso. If I mighi reqest” A desire rose in Priam’s breast and fought against his timidity. The tone in which Mr. Oxford had said “lI fancy they might: give you pleasure” appeared to in- dicate ‘sgmething very much out of the common. And Priam could scarcely recollect when last his eyes had rested on a picture that was at once unfamiliar and great, PARFIT'TS’ GALLERIES. I have already indicated that the machine was some- what out of the ordinary. It was, as a fact, -exceeding!y out of the ordinary. It was much larger than electric carriages usually are. It had what the writers vf ‘motoring notes’ in papers written by the wealthy for wealthy love to call a ‘limousine body.’ And outside and in, it was miraculously new and spotless. On the ivory handles of its doors, on its soft yellow ieather up- holstéry, on its cedar woodwork, on its patent blind apparatus, on its silver fittings, on its lamps, on its footstools, on its silken arm-slings—not the minutest trace of usage! Mr. Oxford’s car seemed to*® show that Mr. Oxford never used a car twice, purchasing a new car every morning, like stockholders their silk hats, or the Duke of Selsea his trousers. There was a table in the ‘body’ for writing, and pockets up and down de- vised to hold documents, also two arm-chairs, and a suspended contrivance which showed tne hour, the tem- perature, and the fluctuatiuns of the barometer; there was also a speaking tube. One felt that if the machine had been connected by wireless telegra phy with the Stock Exchange, the leading studios and the House of Parliament, and if a little restaurant had been con- structed in the rear, Mr. Oxford might never have been under the necessity of leaving the car; that he might have passed all his days in it from morn to latest eve. The perfection of the machine and of Mr. Oxford’s at- tire and complexion caused Priam to look rather shab- by. deed, he was rather shabby: Shabbiness had slightly overtaken him in Putney. Once he had been a dandy; but that was in the lamented Leek’s time. Ani as the car. glided, without smell and without noisg through the encumbered avenues of London towards the center, now shooting forward like a star,.now stopping with gentle suddenness, now swerving in a swift curve round a vehicle earthly and leaden-wheeted, Priam grew more and more uncomfortable. He had sunk into a groove at Putney. He never left Putney, save occa- sionally to refresh himself at the National Gallery, and thither he invariably went by train and tube, because the tube always filled him with wonder and romance, and always threw him up out of the earth at the corner of Trafalgar Square with such a strange exhilaration in his soul. So that he had not seen the main avenues of London for a long time. He had been rorgetting riches and luxury, and the oriental cigarette snops whose pro- prietors’ names end in ‘opoulos,’ and the haughtiness of the ruling classes and the still sterner haughiiness of their footmen. He had now -abandonea Alice in Putney. And a mysterious démon seized him ana gripped him, and sought to pull him back tm the direction of the simplicity of Putney, and struggled with him fiercely, and made him writhe and shrink before the brilliant phenomena of London’s center, and indeed almost pitch- ed him out of the car and set him running as-hard as ees would carry to Putney. It was the demon which we call habit. He would have given a picture to be in Putney, instead of swimming past Hyde Park Corner tv the accompaniment of Mr. Oxford's amiable and deferen- tial and tactful conversation. * However, his other demon, shynesga kept him from imperiously stopping the car,
Se % wh ite The car stopped itself in Bond street, fn front of @ building with 4 wide archway, and the symbol of empire floating langely over its reof. Placards said that ad- mission threugh the archway was a shilling; but Mr. Oxford, bearing Priam’s latest picture as though it had cost £50,000 instead of £500, went straight into the place without paying, and Priam accepted his impressive in- vitation to follow. Aged military veterans whose breasts earried a row of.medals saluted Mr. Oxford as he en- tered, and, within the penetralia, beings in silk hats as faultless ag Mr. Oxford's raised these hats ts Mr. Ox- ford, who did not raise his in reply. Merely nodde.l, Napoleonically! His demeanor had greatly changed. You saw here the man of unbending will, accustomed to use men as pawns in the chess of a complicated career. Presently they reached a private office where Mr. Ox- ford, with the assistance of a page, removed his gloves, furs and hat, and sent sharply for a man who at once brought a frame which fitted Priam’s picture. “Do have a cigar,’ Mr. Oxford urged Priam, with a quick return to his earlier manner, offering a box in which each cigar was separately encased in gold lea‘. The cigar was such as costs a crown in a restaurant, half a crown in a shop, and twopence in Amsterdam. It was a princely cigar, with the odor of paradise and an ash as white as snow. But Priam could not appreciate it. No! He had seen on a beaten copper plate under the arghway these words ‘Parfitts* Galreries.’ He was in the celebrated gallaries of his former dealers, whom hy the way he had never seen. And he was afraid. He was mortally apprehensive, and had a sickly sensation in the stomach. After they had scrupulously inspected the picture, through the clouds of incense, Mr. Oxford wrote out a check for £500, and, cigar in mouth, handed it to Priam, who tried to take it with a casual air and did not suc- ceed. It was signed ‘“Parfitts.” “I dare say you have heard that ['m now the sole proprietor of this place,” said Mr. Oxford through his cigar. “Really! said Priam, feeling just as nervotis as an inexperienced youth, Then Mr. Oxford Ied Priam over ue carpets to a saloon where electric light was thrown by means of re- flectors on to a small but incomparable band of pictures. Mr. Oxford had not exaggerated. They did give pleasure to Priam. They were not the pictures one sees every day, nor once a year. There was the finest Delacroix of its size.that Priam had ever met with; also a Vermeer that made it unnecessary to visit the Ryks Museum. And on the more distant wall, to which Mr. Oxford came last, in a place of marked honor, was an evening landscape ef Volterra, a hili-town in Italy. The bolts of Priam’s very soul started wien he caught sight of that pictupe. On the lower edge of the rich frame were tw» words in black lettering: “Priam-Farll.” How well he remembered painting it: “ang how masterfully beautiful! it was’ 7 “Now that,” said Mr. Oxford, “is-in my humble opinion one of the finest of Faril’s in existence. What do you think, Mr. Leek? e Priam pause@ “I agree with you,” said he. “Farll,” said Mr. Oxferd, “is about the only modern painter that can stand the company that that picture has in this room, eh?” Priam blushed. “Yes,” he said. There is a considerable cifference, in various matters, between Putney and Veclterra; but the picture of Vol- terra and the picture of Putney High Street were ob- viously, strikingly, incontestably, by the same hand; oae could not but perceive the same brush-work, the same masses; the same manner of seeing and grasping in a word the same dazgling and austere translation of na- ture. The resemblance jumped at one and shook one by the shoulders. It could not have escaped even an auc- tioneer. Yet Mr. Oxford did not refer to*it. He seemed yuite blind to it. All he said was, as they left the rooin, and Priam finished his rather monosyllabic praise— “Yes, that’s the little collection Ive just got together, and I am very proud to have shown it to you. Now I want you to come and lunch with me at my club. Please do. I should be desolated if you refused.” ‘f Priam dfd not care a halfpenny about the desolation of Mr. Oxford; and he most sincerely objected to lunch at Mr. Oxford's club. But he said “Yes” because it was tie easiest thing for his shyness to do, Mr. Oxford being a determined man. Priam was afraid to zo. He was dis- turbed, alarmed, affrighted,»by the mystery of Mr. Ox- ford’s silence. They arrived at the club in the ear. THE .CLUB. Priam had never been in a club before. The state- ment may astonish, may even meet with incredulity, but it is true. He had left the land of clubs early in life. As for the English clubs in European towns, he was familiar with their exteriors, and with the amiable babble of their supporters at tables dhote, and his de- sire for further knowledge had not peen so hot as to inconvenience him. Hence he knew nothing ef clubs. Mr. Oxford's club alarmed and intimidated him: it was so big and so black. - Externally it resembled a town hell of some great industrial town. As you stood eon the pavement at the bottom of the flight or giant steps that led to the first pair.of swinging doors, your head was certainly lower than the feet of a vpeing who examined you sternly from the other side of the ziass. Your head was also far below the sills of the mighty windows of the ground floor, and above them a projecting eave of carven stone that threatened the uplifted eye like a menace. The tenth part of a slate, the merest chip of _a corner, falling from the lofty summit of that pile. would have slain elephants. And ali the facade was black, black with ages of carbonic deposit. The notion that the building was a town hall that had got itself misplaced and perverted gradually teft you as you gazed. You. perceived its falseness. You perceived that Mr. Oxford's club Was a monument, a relic of the days when there were giants on earth, that it had come down unimpaired to a race of pigmies, who were makirg the best of it. The sole descendant of the giants was the scout behind the door. As Mr. Oxford and Priam climbed towards it, this unique giant, with a gtant’s force, pulled open the gigantic door, and Mr. Oxford and Priam walked imperceptibly in, and the door Swung to with a large displacement of air. Priam found himself in an immense interior, under a distant carved ceiling, far, far up- wards, like heaven. He watched Mr. Oxford write his name in a gigantic folio, under a gigantic Clogk. This accomplished, Mr. Oxford led him past enortnous vistas to right and left, into a very long cnamber, both of whose long walis were studded witn thousands upon thousands of massive hooks—and here and there upon a hook a silk hat or an overcoat. Mr. Oxford chose a couple of hooks in the expanse, and wnen they had di- vested themselves sufficiently he led Priam forwards into another great chamber evidently meant to recall the baths of Carealla. In gigantic bastns chiselled out ef solid granite, Priam Scrubbed@ his finger nails with ° nail brush larger than he had previously encountere-\ even in nightmares, and an attendant brushed his coas FICTION SECTION.

with a utensil that resembled a weapon of offence Tatery the property of Anak. : “Shall we go straight to the dining room now,” asked Mr. Oxford, “or will you have a gin and@ angostura first?” Priam declined the gin and angostura, and they went up an overwhelming staircase of sombre marble, an} through other apartments te the dining reom, whicu would have made an excellent riding school, Here one had six of the gigantic windows in a row, each w*t)) curtains that fell in huge folds from the unseen into the seen. The ceiling probably existed. On every wall were gigantic paintings in thick ornate frames, and betwee": the windows stood heroic busts of marble set upor columns of basalt. The chairs would have been im- movable had they not run on castors or weight-resist- ing rock, yet against the tables they had the air of negligiblé toys. At one end of the room was a sideboard that would not have groaned under an ox whole, and a- the other a fire, over which an ox might have been reasted in fits entirety, leaped under a» mantelpiece upon which Goliath could not have put his elbows. All was siient and grave; the floors were everywhere covered with heavy carpets which husned all echoes. There was not the faintest sound. Soand, indeed, seem- ed to be deprecated. Priam had already passed the wide entrance to one illimitable room whose walls were clothed with warnings in gigantic letters: ‘Silence. And he had noticed that thickly padded and upholstered in soft leather, and that it was impossible to produce in them the slightest creak. At a casual glance the place seemed unoccupied, but 2n more careful inspection you saw midzets creeping about. or seated in easy chairs that had obviously been made to hold two of them; these midgets were the members of the club, @warfted into dolls by its tremendous dimer- sions. A strange and sinister race! They looked as though im the final stages of decay, ana wherever their heads might rest was stretched a white cloth, so that their heads might not touch the spots sanctified by the heads of the mighty departed. They rarely spoke t»9 one another, but exchanged regards of mutual distrust and_seorn; and if by chance they did converse it was in tones of weary, brusque disillusion. _They could at best descry each other but indistinctly in the universal per- vading gloom—a gloom upon which electric Ilxmps, shin- ing dimly yellow in their vast lustres, produced almost no impression. The whole establishment was buried in the past, drcaming of its Titanic yore, when there were doubtless giants who could fill those tauteuiis and stic! their feet on those mantclpieces. It was in such an environment thHat Mr. “)xford gave Priam to eat and to drink off little _ordtnary plates and out of tiny tumblers. No hint of the club’s immemorial! history in that excessively: modern and excellent repast —save in the Stilton cheese, which seemed to have de- scended from the fine fruity days of some Homeric az, a cheese that Ulysses might have fnaugurated. I need hardly say that the total effect on Priam’s temperament was disastrous. (Yet how could the diplomatic Mr. Ox- ford have guessed that Priam had never been in a club before?) It induced in him a spéechless anguish, and he would have paid a sum as gigantic as tne ¢club—he woul: have paid the very check in his pocket—never to have met Mr. Oxford. He was a far too sensitive man for a club, and his moods were incalculable. Assuredly Mr Oxford had miscalculated the result of his chub on Priam’s humor; he soun saw h‘s error. ‘Suppose we take coffee in the smoking room?’ he said. The pepulous smoking-room was the one part of th> club where talking with a natural loudness was not a crime. Mr. Oxford found a corner fairly free from mid- gets, and they established themselves in it, and liquors and cigars accompanied the coffee. You could actually see midgets laughing outright ir the midst of smoke; the chatter nafrowly escaped beinz a din; and at intervals a diminutive boy entered and bawled the name of a midget at the trop of his voice. Priam was suddenly electrified, and Mr. Oxford, very alert, noticed the electrification. Mr. Oxford drank his coffee somewhat quickly, and then he leaned forward a little over the-table, and put his moon-like face nearer to Priam’s, and arranged his legs in a truly comfortable position beneath the table. and expelled a large quantity of smoke from his cigar. It was clearly the preliminary to a scene of confidence. the approach to the crisis to which he had for several heurs been leading up. trembled. “What is your opinion, maitre,” he asked, mate value of. Farll’s pictures?’ 4 Priam’s heart “of the ulti- Priam was in misery. Mr. Oxford's manner was defer- ential, amiable and expectant. But Priam did not know what to say. He only knew what he would do if he could have found the courage to do it; run away, reck- lessly, unceremoniously, out of that club. “-[ den’t Know,” said Priam, visibly whitening. “Because I’ve bought a goodish few Farlls in my time,’ Mr. Oxferd continued, “and I must say I’ve sold thei well. Ive only got that one left that I showed you this morning, and I’ve been wondering whether I should stick to it and wait for a possible further rise, or sell it at once.” “How much can you sell it for?” Priam mumbled. said Mr. Oxford, “that I It’s rather “I don’t mind telling you,” fancy I eould sell it for a couple of thousand. small, but it’s one of the finest in existence.”’ “I should sell it,’ “You would? Well, perhaps you're right. it’s a-ques- tion, in my mind, whether some other painter may. noi turn up one of these days who would do that sort of thing even better than Farll did it. I could imagine the ts oe bility of a really clever man coming along and imitatin~ Farll so well that only people like yourself, maitre, a:..J perhaps me, could tell the difference. It’s just the Kis! of work that might be brilliantly imitated, if the imitater was clever enough, don’t you think?” “But what do you mean?’ asked Priam, perspiring iu his back. “Well,” said Mr. Oxford vaguely, “one never knows. The style might be imitated, and the market flooded witia Canvases practically as good as Farll’s. Nobody might find it out for quite a long time, and then there might be confusion in the public mind, followed by a sharp fall in prices. And the beauty of it is that the public wouldn't really. be any the worse. Because an imita- tion that nu one can distiavruish from the original ia naturally as good as the ce iginal. You take. me? There's certainly\a treme: ccs chance for a man wh> could seize it, and that’s why I'm inclined to accept your advice and sell my one remaining Farll.” He smiled more and more confidentially. His gaze was charged with a secret meaning. He seemed to be suggest- ing unspeakable matters to Priam. That bright fice wore an expression which such faces wear on such oc- casions—an expression cheerfully insinuating that after all there is no right and no wrong—or at least that manv things which the ordinary slave of convention woull consider to be wrong are really right. So Priam read the expression. “The dirty rascal wants me to manufacture imitations of myself for him!” Priam thought, full of sudden, hidden said Priam, scarcely audible, “anger. all chairs and couches were ° ‘connoisset! “that you bought that picture this mw: “He's known all along that there's no difference between what I sold him and the picture he’s al- ready had. He wants to suggest that we should come to terms. He’s simply been playing a geme with me up to “now.” And he said aloud, “I don’t know that I advise you te do anything. I’m net a dealer, Mr. Oxford.” He said it ‘tn a hestile tone that ought to have silenced Mr. Oxford forever, but it did not. Mr. Oxford curved away, like a skater inte a new figure, and began to ex- patiate minutely upon the merits of the Volterra picture. lle analyzed it in se much detail, and lauded it with as much justice, as though the picture was there before them. Priam was astonished at the man’s exactitude. “Scoundrel! He knows a thing’ or two!’ reflected Priam grimly. “You don’t think I overpraise it, do you, cher maitre?” Mr. Oxferd finished, still smiling. “A little,” said Priams If only Priam could have run away! But he couldn't! Mr. Oxford had him well in a corner. No chance of freedom! Besides, he was over 50 and stout. “Ah! Now I was expecting you to say that! “Do you mind telling me. at what period you painted it?’ Mr. Oxford inquired, very biandly, though his hands were clasped in a violent tension that forced the blood from the region of the knuckle joints. This was the crisis which Mr. Oxford had been leading up to! All the time Mr. Oxfords teeihy smiie had con- cealed a knowledge of Priam’s identity! CHAPTER &X. THE .SECRET. ‘m HAT do you mean?’ asked Piiam Farll. But be he put the question weakly, and he -mignt just as well have said, “I know what you mean, and I would pay a m:llion pounds or so in order to sink through the floor.” A few minutes ago he would only have paid £500 pouuds or in order to run simp!y awa¥Y. Now he wanted Maskelyne miracles to happen to him. The universe seemed to be caving in about the ears of Priam Farll. Mr. Oxford was still smiiing; smiling, man holds his breath f + a wager. could not keep it up mucis longer. however, as a 1,04 telt that he “You sare Priam Farll, «ren’t you” suid Mr. Oxford in a very low voice. “What makes you think I'm Priam Farli?’ “T think you ere Priam Farll because you painted that picture I bought from you this morning, and I am sure that no one but Priam iarll could have painted it.’ “Then you've been playing a game with me al} morning!” “Please don’t put it like bet! cher maitre,” Mr. Oxford whisperingly pleaded. “i only wished to feel my ground, 1 know that Priam Farl! is supposed to have been buried in Westminster Abbey. tut for me the existence of that picture of Putney High Street, obviously just painted, is an absolute proof that he is not buried in Westminster Abbey, and that he st.ll tives. It is an amazing thing that there should liave Leen a mistake at the funeral, an utterly ama“ing thing, which involves ali sorts of consequences! Bui that’s not my business. Of course there must be clear reasons for what occurred. I am not interested in them—I mean not professionally. I merely argue, when I see a certain picture, with the paint still wet on it: ‘That picture wus painted by a cer- tain painter. I am an expert, and | stake my reputa- tion on it.’ It's no use telling me that the painter in question died several years ago and was buried with national honors in Westininster Abbey. I say it couldn't have been so. I'm a connoisseur. And if the facts of his death and burial don’t agree with the result of my ship, I say they aren’t facts. I Say there’s been a—a misunderstaiuding en cee. Now, cher maitre, what do you think of my position?’ Mr, Oxford drumined lightly on the table. “IT don’t know,” said Priam. Which was another lie. * “You are Priam Farll, Oxford per- sisted. = “Well, if you will have it,” am. And now you know!” Mr. Oxford let his smile go. He had held it for an incredible time.‘ He let it go, amd sighed a gentle ard profound relief. He had been skating over the thinnest ice, and had reached the bank amid terrific crackings, and he began to appreciate the exteht of the peril brave’l. He had been perfectly sure of his connoisseurship. But when one says One ig perfectly sure, especially if one says it with immense emphasis, one always means ‘im- perfectly sure.” So it was with Mr. Oxford. And really, to argue, from the mere existence of a picture, that a tremendous deceit had been successfu ly practiced upon the most formidable of nations, impl:ics rather more than rashness on the part ef the arguer. “But I den’t want it to get about,” said Priam, still in a savage whisper. “And ] don’t want to talk about it.” He looked/at the nearest midgets resentfully, suspett- ing them o* eavesdrepping. aren’t you?” Mr. sald Priam savagely, “I “Precisels ,’ conviction. | “It’s a matter than only concerns me,’ said Priam. “Precisei;y,” Mr. Oxford repeated. “At least it ought to concern only you.

I want no signature.” “I haven’t signed my pictureg fer twenty years,” Priam. “Pardon me,” said Mr. Oxford “Every square inch of every one’ is unmistakably signed. You cetld not put a brush on a@ canvas without signing it. It is the privi- lege of only the greatest pailters not to put letters on the corners of their pictures in order to keep other painters from taking the credit for them afterwaris For me, all your pictures are signed. But there are some people who want mecre proof than connoisseurghip can give, and that’s where the trouble is geing to be.” , “Trouble?” said Priam, with an intensification of his misery. “Yes,” said Mr. Oxford. “I must tell you, so that you can understand the situation.” He became very solemn, showing that he had at last reached the real point. “Some time ago a man, a litile dealer, ceme to me and offered me a picture that I instantly recognized as one of yours. I bought it.” “How.much did vou pay for it?” Priam growled. After a pause Mr. Oxford said, “I don’t mind giving yo,the figure. I paid fifty pounds for it.” “Dia you!” exclaimed Priam, perceiving that some per- son or persons had made four hundred per cent. on his work by the time it had arrived at a-big dealer. “Who was the fellow?’ “Oh, a little dealer. said Nobody, Jew, of course.” Mr. “ever was. said Mr. Oxford, but im a tone that lacked’ = . eee « Oxford’s way of saving ‘Jew’ was ineffably treats. Pra knew that, beirg a Jew; the Cealer could mot be i frame-maker, who was a pure-bred Yorkshireman fr@ Ravensthorpe. Mr. Oxford continued, “I sold that ture and guaranteed it to Be a Priam Fart.” “Th: devil you did!” “Yes. “WLs bought it?’ “Whitney C. Witt, of New York. He's an old man now, — : of course. I expect you remember him, cher maitre.” Mr. Oxford’s eyes twinkled. course he accepted my guarantee. Soon afterwards £ had the offer of other pictures obviously by you, frem the same dealer. And I bought them. I kept on buying them. I dare say I've bought forty altogether.” “Did yeur little dealer guess whose work they were?" Priam demanded suspiciously. “Not he! If he had done, do you, suppose he'd have parted with them for fifty pounds apiece? Mind, at first I thovght I was buying pictures painted before your supposed death. I thought, like the rest of the world, that you were—in the Abbey. Then I began to have doubts. my thumb, I can tell you I was startled. However, If stuck to my opinion, and I kept on guaranteeing the pictures as Farlis.” “It never occurred to you to make any inquiries?” “Yes, it did,” said Mr. Oxford. “i did my best to find . out*from the dealer where he got the pictures from, but he wouldn’t tell me. Well, I sort of seented a mystery. Now Ive got no professional use for mysteries, and I came to the conclusion that I'd better just let this one alone. So-.I did,” “Well, why didn’t you keep on leaving it alone?’ Priam asked. “Because circumstances won't let me. tically all those pictures to Whitney C. Witt. right.

You see the fix?’ Priam did. “My reputation—Parfitts—-is at stake. If those pic- tures aren’t by you, I'm a swindler.

Well, t»> cut a long story short, I’ve found yeu, I'm glad to say:” He sighed again. “Look here,” said Priam. “How much has Witt paid you altogether for my pictures?” : After a pause, Mr. Oxford said, “I don’t mind giving you the figure. He's paid me seventy-two thousand pounds odd.” He smiled, as if to excuse himself. When Priam Farll reflected that he had received abot four hundred pounds for those pictures, vastly lesgthsu one per cent of what the shiny and prosperous dealer ha:t ultimately disposed of them for, the traditional fury of I sold- prac- It was all - the artist against the dealer—of the producer against the parasitic middleman—sprang into flame in hi? heart. Up till then he had never had any serious cause of complaint against his dealers. (Extremely successful artists seldom have.) Now he saw dealers, as the ordi- nary painters see them, to be the authors of all evil! Now he understood by what. methods Mr. Oxford had achieved his splendid car, clothes, club, and minions. These things were earned, not by Mr. Oxford, but for Mr. Oxford in dingy studios, even in attics, by shabby industrious painters! Mr, Oxford was nothing but an opulent thief, a grinder of the face of genius. Mr-Ox- ford was, in a word, the spawn of the devil, and Priam silently but sincerely consigned him to his proper place. It was excessively unjust of Priam. N ‘ody had askel Priam to die. Nobody had asked him to give up hs identity. If he had latterly been receivine tens instea-l of thousands for his pictures, the fault was his alone Mr. Oxford had only bought and only sold; which ws his true function. But Mr. Oxford’s sin, in Priam 3 eyes, was the sin of having been right. . It would have needed less insight than Mr, Oxford hed at his disposal to see that Priam Farll was taking ihe news very badly. “For both our sakes, cher maitre,” said Mr. Oxforl persuasively, “I think it will be advisable fer you te put me-in a position to prove that my guarantee to Wi.t was justified.” ‘ “Why for both our sakes?” ‘‘Because, well, I shall be delighted to pay you, sor thirty-six thousand pounds in acknowledginent of—er— He stopped. Probably he had instantly perceived that he was con)- mitting a disastrous error of tact. Wither he should hays offered nothing, or he should have offered the who. sum he had received less a smaH-commission. To #u*- gest dividing equally with Priam was the instinctive im- pulse, the fatal folly, of a born dealer. And Mr, Ox- ford was a born dealer. “I won't accept a penny,” help you in any way. as it is.” His cold resistless fury drove him forward, and, with- out the slightest regard for the amenities of clubs, he left the table. Mr. Oxford, becoming more and more the dealer, rose and followed him, even directed him te the gigantic cloak-room, murmuring the while soft per- suasions and pacifications in Priam’sg ear. “There may be an action in the courts,” ford in the grand entrance hall, would be indispensable tq me.” “I can have nothing to dv with it. Good-day!” The giant at the door could scarce open the gigantic portal quickly enough for him. He fled—fled, sur- rounded “by nightmare visions of horrible publicity in a law court. Unthinkable tortures!

Then Priam understood the solitary letters, and he rushed, with a new accession of fury, to the adjoining cage, where anéther disdainful hand picked up the cheque ani turned it over, with an air of saying, ‘Fishy, this!” And, “It isn’t endorsed!” said another mouth over another high collar and green tie. The second disda‘n- ful hand pushed the cheque back again to Priam, as though it had been a begging circular. “Oh, if that’s all!” said Priam, almost speechless from anger. “Have you got such a thing as a pen?” He was behaving in an extremely unreasonable man- ner. He had no right to visit his spleen on a perfectly innecent-bank that paid twenty-five per cent to its sliareholders and a thousand a year each to its direc- tors, and what trifle was left over to its men in cages. But Priam was not like you or me. He did not invari- ably act according to reason. He coutrd not be angry with one man at once, nor even with one building at © once. When he wag angry he was inclusively and mis- cellaneously angry; and the sun, moon, and stars did not escape. After he had endorsed the cheque the disdainful hand clawed it up once more, and directed upon its obverse ' Of eyes gianced with critical distrust at so much of Prian.’s person as was visible. Then the eyes moved back, the mouth opened in a brief word, and lo! there were four eyes and two mouths o'°" ‘he cheque, and four fof an instant on Priam, |!’ ‘ected some one to call for a policeman; in spite ' he felt guilty —or anyhow dubious. It was the _.. sest insult to him to throw doubt on the cheque and to examine him ‘a that frigid, shamelessly disillusioned manner. “You are Mr. Leek?” a mouth moved, Yes” (very slowly). ‘*How would you like this?” “I'll thank you to give it me in notes,” answered Priam hatghtily. When the disdainful hand had counted twice every corner of a pile of notes, and had dropped the notes one by one, with a peculiar snapping sound of paper, in front of Priam, Priam crushed them togetner and crammed them without any ceremony and without gratitude to the giver, into the right pocket of his trousers. And he stamped out of the building with curses on his lips. Still, he felt better, he felt-assuaged. To cultivate and nourish a grievance when you have five hundred pounds in your pocket, in cash,.is the most difficult thing tn the world. e TO BE CONCLUDED NEXT SUNDAY. 4 | @Mmd a green tie, behind the grating. and a disdainful and upon its reverse a battery of suspictons; then a pair — ‘ee ‘te aa a ee ee B & * The Professor's Mystery The book is a collaboration by Wells Hastings and Brian Hooker. It is full of gripping interest, thrilling action, with a baffling, ever-present sense of mystery that is never dis- -pelled until the startling finale. Through all its wealth of bold deeds and uncertainty it sustains a pleasing love story. The book is chiefly about a young academician, whose prowess in athletics exceeds his ability in the lecture room, and a charming girl, his sweetheart, over whose life is a strange cloud. . & ; ‘ f b 3 ' : $ Be ¥ : ET OR eee PEON Te SORE ae For the rest, there are trolley wrecks, midnight motor car dashes, kidnapings, bizarre mental phenom- ena, spiritualistic mediums and. trances.
