President Taft will oceupy the Jef- ferson suite of 10 rooms on the second floor of’ the Hotel Jefferson during his stay in St. Louis Sept. 23. The reserva- tion for the Presidert and his party was made Friday. This suite was used by Dr. Freder- ick A. Cook when he came here to tell St. Louisans that he had discovered the North Pole. On his recent visit, Dr. Cook occupied more modest apart- ments. The Jefferson suite was the home of Theodore Roosevelt when he stopped in St. Louis on his whirl around the circle of the Western states. Last winter the rooms were occupied by En- rico Caruso and other operatic stars. President Taft will have a parlor, re- ception room, bathroom and bedroom of the suite for his personal ‘use. The other rooms will be used as reception rooms and rest rooms for other mem- bers. of -his party. The Arrangement Committee decided Friday.‘to request every man in St. Louls who owns an automobile to offer a services as a driver to the Taft Recep- tion ‘Committee, The committee would like to have automobile owners willing ‘to comply with this tequest to notify Secretary Karbe at his office in Te Carleton Bullding. - Soldier Killed im Runaway. 1 TRE Okia., Sept. 1.—During an ce aed drill at Fort Sill, Private Eu- when « six-horse - @riving to. a gun the use of the machine and his own hata Aang Battery A., Fifth Field MRS. IRMA JONES BEAUTY MODEL. 10 FIGHT FOR CHiLD Declares That She Did Not Knaw Her Husband Had Divorced Her. Mrs. Irma Jones of 3873 Botanical aVv-4 enue, a department store model, has em- ployed an attornéy to make a determined fight against her former husband, Samuel P- Jones Jr. of Memphis, who is trying t O.talge, re am her their small son, Paul, £4 uguwnabeas corpus pro- ceedings. Mrs. Jo Says she knew nothing of the vorce obtained by her hus- band until he filed the habeas corpus suit for possession of the child. The divorce was obtained in a small Ten- nessee town, and Mrs. Jones says she was never served with a summons in the case. Service was obtained by publication. Divorce Not Mentioned. Jones’ habeas corpus. suit merely alleges that the ‘boy is improperly restrained of. his liberty by Mrs. Jones, and does not mention either the divorce case or any reasons why Mrs. Jones is not a proper person to have the custody of the child. Mrs. Jones declined Friday to dis- cuss the habeas corpus case or the divorce suit, and referred reporters to her attorney, William Zachritz. Zachritz refused to make a state- ment of the facts in the case. “T am not concerned about what the public may think,” he said. “I am preparing this case for trial, and I be- lieve that any statement. would only serve to inform the ether side what the défense will be. Tor that reason, I can make no statement. “When the case goes to trial there will be complete answer to every charge which I urderstand Jones is prepanng.”’ The case is set in Judge Grimm’s Court for next Thursday. Mother Widely Known, Mrs. Jones is widely known in St. Louis as a model: She has been em- ployed in the suit department of one of the large downtown stores for several] years. She has also posed for photog- raphers and is in general demand for posings showing the attractive features of suits and gowns. MRS. BUTTERMORE TO KEEP EAGAN BOY Father Fails to Get Possession of the Child in His Aunt’s Care. Mrs. William Buttermore of 4113 Mc- Pherson avenue won the custody of 3. year-old Edward Eagan Friday in a habeas corpus contest with the child’s father, Edward J. Eagan. Ir was shown by the testimony that Mrs, Buttermore had the custody of the child since his birch. His mother, a sister of Mrs.. Buttermore, is a patient in the city sanitarium. Eagan lived at] the Buttermore home until a week ago. When he left he brought suit for the custody of the boy. Judge Grimm held that the child's best interests would he berved by leaving it with Mrs. Butter- more. He said that Eagan had shown evidence of good character and ability to provide for the child, but that it needed the Sttention “ its aunt.

Belzar was found workshop of Universal avisaiion Co., 811 North and make fortune, dead ‘in the the Aerial street, Friday about circumstances which at first seemed to indicate murder. Himself ti.e owner of 400. shares in the company, which is building the aero- plane, Balzar for two months had spent his nights guarding it. The company had been sailing the financialseas with indifferent success and two factions in the company’s organization were fight- ing in the eourts for control. Balzar, like most of his associafes, -be- lieved that when the great gyroplane was completed it would far outsirip the inventions of Wright, Curtiss and Bleriot. Death Comes at Night. Death came upon him at night while he stood guard over the half-completed aeroplane to prevent anyone from breaking into the factory and learning the sec: >t of its construction. After making an autopsy, seph Meinhard of the Coroner's staff said death was primarily due to valvular heart disease, wit:, other ail- ments as contributory causes. Abrasions and cuts found on the face and head were said by Dr. Meinhard to have been made by rats. One theory advanced is that Balzar awake to find the rats attacking him and thai frigit caused a heart stroke. Balzar was foune dead by A. H. Haw- ley, the company’s mechanical engineer, at 7:50 a. m. The body lay on a shelf againsi .the.north.wall/of ihe fagfory room on the third floor. Hawley at first thought Balzar |was asleep. ‘The body lay on the left side with the right arm pillowed under |the head. Balzar evidently had chosen |the shelf as a napping place. Going to arouse Balzar, Hawley found fresh abrasions en the forehead and cheeks. He summoned policemen whose first report was that Balzar had been beaten to death. Watch in His Pocket. Hawley beheved that the marks on the face and head were Caused by acid. Om a shelf on the oppesite side of the room from where Balzar was found, were two large bottles which had con- tained acids used in manufacturing the gyroplane, but the employes say these bottles had been emmty several days. Balzar’s watch, $20 in cash and a real estate note for $1750 payable to him, were found in his pockets. There was nothing to indicate that he had been attacked, except cuts and abrasions, un- explainable at that time. Suspected Murder. Harry Oman, son of J. W. Oman, in- ventor of the gyroplane, was one of those who held the murder theory be- fore the autopsy’s result was announced. “So far as United States patents are concerned,’’ he said, ‘“‘there could have weet. o> theft, as mv father has all nee- essary patents to protect the gyre- plane from infringement. It might have been to someone's interest, though, to steal my father’s ideas to obtain Eu- ropean patents, I was on watch at the factory until a month ago, but se many threats were made against me that I quit. “Balzar was well-to-do. He acted as watchman at the factory to protect his interests as a stockholder.”’ Factions in Concern. The Universal Aerial Navigation Co. has an office in the Third National Bank Building. Its officers are W. H. Walters, president; D. A. Fletcher, vice- president; Meyer Isaac, treasurer, and Chester B. Hyde, secretary. Another factior recently organized with F, A. Seifert, president; William Ramsay, vice-president, and John Els- permann Jr., secretary-treasurer. The company applied for an injunction to restrain the Seifert faction from having anything to do with its affairs. Judge Allen denied the injunction. It is promised that the gyroplanegwill be so constructed that it will not need a running start to rise and that it can remain motionless In midair or attain a speed of 100 miles an hour. The cir- culars say it can he built to carry 100 passengers safely and that it can fly across the Atlantic Ocean. Balzar was the first bought stock in the Navigation Co. He formerly was a real estate dealer ,in San Antonio, Tex. Since coming to St. Louis to look after his interest in the gyroplane he had boarded at the home of Mrs. Hattie Chapman at 5749 Easton avenue.

His bride, formerly Miss Grace Greenway of 3115 Clark avenue, accompanied him, and went from Unton Station to her parents’ home, while he was taken to Police Headquarters. Brown admitted that he had over- drawn his personal account at the Grand Avenue Bank, and had cashed checks against aceount, mostly at the branch offices of his company, when he had no balance. The company’s loss by these checks is figured at $1075 He said that his losses in craps games in Fast St. Louis and Venice, IIL, particularly the loss of $5000 in Russell Baber’s East St. Loulg game, on the eve of his marriage caused him to. over- Craw his account.

Ife said he began frequenting the Ikast Side gambling resofts five weeks ago and that for the first two weeks he was a winner. “Il cleaned up $3000 in those two weeks,’ he said Friday to a Post-Dis- patch reporter. “It went to my head. I felt like the man that broke the bank :at Monte Carlo. I never had so wiuchi money of my own before. I thought I would make. $2000 more in another week, then get married, set- tle down atid perhaps go into busi- ness for myself. “Then 1 began to Jose. I lost the $3000 and began writing checks, on my bunk account. I paid no ‘attention to their amount, for I thought all the time the tide would turn and I would win again. “Aug. 16 I began to realize what I had been doing, and I went to the Grand Avenue Bank to find out where I stood... I found my balance was $440, I drew out $295, and knew that there would be checks for a thousand or more coming in to eat up the $105 I was leaving. Fiancee Agrees to Wed. “Then I telephoned ,to my fiancee. ‘I'm in bad,’ I told her. ‘You ought to break our engagement. But if you want to marry -me right away and g6 away with me, come along.’ “She said she would marry me, and two hours later we were married at Clayten. We took a night train for Kansas City, and frem there we went to Memphis. We hadn’t much money left after paying all that railroad fare. We went to a hotel at first, and I gave my name as Charles Jackson. We left the hotel and went to a boarding house, and I began writing to my ‘friends for money to help me until I could get a start. “T wrote “to Russell Baber, in East St. Letiis, and told h:.m I hed lost $5000 in his game, and that I was broke and needed help. I got no reply. I didn’t write tu Pom Riggins in Vetics. for I had won more than I lost in his place.”’ Brown denied that he had taken any of the funds of the dressed beef com- pany, or had defrauded it in any other way than by cashing his checks in the company’s branch offices. He also cashed a check for $18 at the saloon of J. F. Fritz, at Chouteau and Vande- veoter avenues. Tella of 85 Wedding Fee. He denied a statement, made after his disappearance, that he had thrown a $6 bill at Justice Willecken, who mar- ried him and Miss Greenway, in Clay- ton. He said he handed $5 to the Just- ice, supposing that to be the price of the ceremony. If he had known that the customary fee was less, he said, he would have asked for change, for he realized at that time that he needed money. Brown's arrest was brought about by letters which he wrote to friends in-8t. Louis, asking help. Robert W. Inman of the National Surety Co., which signed Brown’s bond-with the National Packing Co., traced some of these let- ters, and Detective Darby O’Brien, who was assigned to the case, got sinillar information.

A deputy sheriff conducted these witnesses to the machine in a barn several hundred yards from the courthouse. At this juncture Attorney Smith for the defense received the message telling him of an important new witness, and examination of witnesses was suspended. There were rumors that additional evidence concerning the*alleged high- wayman had been received, but coun- sel for the defense gave no paprnns- tion. Prisoner Is Excited. When the prisoner read the mes- sage to Smith he became excited and pounded on the table in front of him several times, his face flushed, and he turned to his father and talked rap- idly to him. Smith immediately left the room. Hil].Carter of counsel for the defense said: “We cannot say anything at this time. We have received some very important information which we are trying at once to verify.” The crowd sauntered out on the lawn during the virtual recess caused by Smith's absence. f} It was learned that the witness will corroborate a story of a Louisville man that he knew of a man and a woman who traveled the Midlothian turnpike on the night of the murder, and that the machine stopped once and the wom- an stood on the running board. Boys Told of Seeing Car. This fact, if established, will be used by the defense to controvert the testi- mony of several boy witnesses of the prosecution that they saw a man and 4 woman in a car similar to Henry Clay Beattie Jr. on the road, and that the Iran: was not in the machine. By the testimony of the boys, the prosecution ‘has contended that the a>- evsed man was not in his seat in the car when the murder occurred. Smith returned to the courtroom at 12 o’clock "re continued his examination of Doug- es Beattie, who was on the stand be- fore the half-hour interruption. BEATTIE LOSES JAUNTY BEARING All Beattie’s jauntiness of bearing fled as he watched his father on the witness stand yesterday. When the old man‘was picturing his own part in the case on the night of the homicide, when he told how he come with poignant anguish at the horrible death of his girl wife, when he described how Beattie had sat fallen back in a chair with one of his dead wife’s slippers in his hand, kissing it and moaning over it, a sud- den redness flushed over the young man’s countenance, there were spas- modic twitchings of his lips, and with a swift movement he drew a handker- ‘ehief from his coat pocket, clasped it over his eyes, bent his head on the table before him and wept openly without restraint. His brother Deuglas, sitting directly behind him, arose from his chair and bent over Henry, both arms around the shoul- ders of the accused man. An Inceagrucus Teuch. Meanwhile the voice of the father continued, his words coming slowly, hesitatingly anq brokenly. The in- seongruous touch in Beattie’s sudden expression of grief over the death of ihis young wife lay in the fact that his garb suggested no token of 7 yg eed for the young woman who died little more than a month ago.

Prose- cutor Wendenburg’s voice was sym- pathetic as he said: “There will be no cross-examination, Mr. Beattie. You may stand aside.” The father went slowly back to his chair beside his son. Beattie. quite recovered from the weepirg spell, seemed highly excited. He talked swift- ly and hard into the father’s ear, as if he were reminding and remonstrating with him concerning something he had forgotten to say. Beattie’s Favorite Son. “Henry is my favorite son,’’ Beaitie Sr. told the jury. “Other child.-en came when he was a little fellow, and he had therefore to suffer some unavoidable neglect by his mother, who died when he was 16 years old. I, therefore, came into closer and more intimate asso-! ciation with Henry than anybody else in the world. “I do not think he was a wild boy. I think that generally you will find that he is regarded as truthfu:, kindly and of a nature that is wholly ‘ %dds with the commission of such a crime as that of which he is charged. ‘He went to school until he was 9, and then I started him in my Store. He began just as another youth might—as} a clerk in the men’s furnishing depart- ment. But gradually he proved his ef- ficiency, and now’’—the father hesi- tated on the word “‘now”- “‘‘now he has charge of the shoe and haberdashery c xartment, does #H the buying for it, and has been my most efficient assirt- ant.

Théir relations v sre broken off. “Sometime thereafter came his mar- riage to Miss Louise Owen. It was very pleasing to me. After the marriage Henry brought hj wife to live at my home. I was delfghted with the young girl and I came to love her most sin- cerely ard she loved me. On more than one occasion I had told her how sweet and agreeable an addition she had proved to my home, and had told her that she must think of me exactly as if I were her own father. When her little baby was born I was more than ever pleased. I told her then that my life had not been altogether a happy on, but that the little grandson she had borne to me renewed my life for me. Seemed to Be Devoted. ‘“‘Henry and his wife seemed to be de- voted. They seemed to be very happy. Of course there may have been things that I knew nothing of, but in my pres- ence they were most affectionate. He kissed her whenever he left the house. He frequently too her out motoring alone. “On the night of this homicide in the Midlothian turnpike I saw Henry leave ths house with the motor car at about 8:30. I was in the bathroom shaving at about 11:15, when I hoard the telephone bell ring and then my son Douglas talk- ing excitedly. I gathered from what I heard him say that Henry had been shot or seriously hurt. That was stil] our im- pression when We started from home to Mr. Owen's house. “When I arrived there I. found Henry fallen back in a chair. There was a cut on his nose and his face was bloody. He was moaning and sobbing and I knelt down beside him and asked if he was badly hurt. He shook his head and then I saw that he had a slipper that I recognized as belonging to his wife. He kissed it and sobbed and seemed almost hysterical with anguish. I never let ‘him out of my sight for hours after that. His grief seemed so great that I really feared that if left to himself he might do something grey a Bip omit Tekan yokes “his emotions are strong but he has control of them. He hates to show them to anybody. With others at the house that night he made a big effort to ap- pear calm, but when we were alone together he would abandon himself to spells of sobbing and moaning and was most deeply affected.’’ ‘Did you hear Henry tell Mr. Sydnor at the scene of the homicide that the highwayman had approached the left side, in contradiction to his other statements that the man Came to a car from the right side?’ re was present when Henry talked to . ,Sydnor. Mr. Sydnor may have ante Henry said the left side, but he is mistaken.” “Did you have anything to do with the. burning of Mrs. Louise Beattie’s clothing?” “No ve Couldn’t Identify Gun. “Was any attempt made by you or any other member of your family, as far as you know, to keep back from the authorities any article of clothing or any other article of possible evidence that they demanded?” “I gave instructions to the household that they were to be given anything they asked for.” “Did you ever see that single-barreled shotgun in your son Henry’s possession or anywhere in your house or store?” “T never did. Or if I did, I couldn't identify it. But I saw no gun.” “It is alleged that there was an at- tempt made t¢ wash the automobile in your garage.’ “There may have a but not bw@my orders.

I will bring him here and you can question him.” ‘‘Was Paul Beattie at your store on Saturday—the night he says he came to get Henry and take him to see the gun?” “I saw Paul Beattie then but if he went away with Henry it was later than 10 o’clock, as he says. The store did not close until fully 20 minutes past ten that night.’’ Auntie Tells of Whiskers. In the attack on Paul! Beattie’s charac- ter, David Beattie, Paul’s grandfather, said Paul’s reputation for truth and veracity was bad. He admitted, how- ever, that he had seen very little of Paul since the young man’s parents died. The prosecution insisted very strongly on bringing out that there had been little association in the last three years, for in rebuttal they mean to show that while Paul Beattie may have been a shiftless orphan he has since his mar- riage been leading a model moral ex- istence, Margaret Jackson, a negress, testified that she had seen a man with a shot- gun on the Midlothian pike acting strangely for several days before the murder. Other witnesses saw a strange man on the turnpike and said that his face bore a growth of beard of from one to two weeks. “Auntie Margie” was asked about this man with the whiskers. **Yas, sah, I see ‘em—’bout two weeks’ growth,” she sald. “How long were they? us,”” said the prosecutor. “*Bout down to heah,” said Aunty, holding her hahd about six inches below her chin.

Grad- uate nurses of other hospitals who are called into St. Luke’s on cases will still wear white. This will embarrass the Si. Luke’s graduates, who feel them- selves entitled to the same consider- ation as the graduates of the other hos- pitals.’’ j Case Sent Away. As the present is a dull season for op- erations and serious cases, the nurses’ decision made little difference on the first day. Only two graduate -nurses were on duty at the hospital Thursday. Both. these quit, and a third, who had been asked to take a case which was to be sent to St. Luke’s Friday, declined to do so, and the case was sent to an- other hospital. During the fall and winter season all available graduate nurses are some- times on duty. Each hospital is sup- posed to give preference to its own graduates, but in some cases, where a certain nurse is preferred by a patient or a physician, outside graduates are in charge. The graduate nurses live out- side the hospital. The undergraduate nurses live in an adjoining building. Mrs. Chambers refused, when seen by a Post-Dispatch reporter Friday, to make any statement about her recent order or the nurses’ action.

As Mrs, Dick- erson she will for a time continue to be cashier of her husband's estab- lishment and will look after things when he is away = as she used to do when she wags fiot his wife. Mrs. Dickerson enteréq the employ of Dickerson seven years ago. Her industry and loyalty to the firm’s in- terests won her promotion to cashier, and when Dickerson had to be out of the city he left the businesa in her charge. Confidence in the cashier and ap- preciation of her business qualities led to a warmer attachment. Fre- quent absences of the cashier from the store during the past week aroused the suspicions of the other employes. When Dickerson and his employe left the store together Thursday afternoon the employes concluded that they had gone to be married, and the stock was drawn on to decorate their desks with ap- propriate symbols against the time of their returning. They were married by the Rev. W. E. Archibald of Emporia, Kan., an old friend of Dickerson, who was visit- ing in East St. Louis, and returned to the store at 3:30 to receive the con- gratulations of the employes, Mrs. Dickerson will continue to act as cashier until after Christmas, and the couple will then go to housekeep- ing.

Henry Harrington says He thinks love’s young dream, and all that sort of thing, may do very well in its proper place, but he says Union Station is, not that place, and he has not hesitated to tell several individuals so iin the last few days. Suburban spooners, who meet in the waiting room and hold hands while awaiting their trains, and urban youths and maids who have no intention of traveling anywhere, but who find the station a convenient meeting place, get on Harrington’s nerves with equal in- tensity. He has no use for any of them. Harrington Gets Busy. At the rush hour Thursday evening, Harrington saw a fond pair seated on the steps in the central midway, an arm of each forming a rest for the other's back, and their hands in a united-we- stand-divided-we-fall clasp. He pushed his way through the hurrying crowds, placed himself before the two and in a hoarse voice shoutéd, “Break!” They broke, and a minute later were gone to seek some more hospitable scene for plighting their vows of undying affec- tion.’ Going into the waiting room soon aft- erward, Sergt.

He remem- bered that he had seen her there the evening before, and the evening be- fore that, first alone, then with a young man who also wore a red rose. “The last rose of summer for her,” } muttered the Sergeant, then went to the young woman and suggested that if she couldn't decide which train to take, there was always a car outside which she could take.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World, Copyright, 1911. by Press Publishing Ce. (New York World.) ROME, Sept. 1.—Reports reached the Vatican today of an attempt made to murder Mgr. Phillip Contessa, a domes- tic chaplain to the Pope and rector of Agira, in Cantania, Sicily, while he was celebrating mass in the cathedral in Agira. Poison had been placed in the sacred wine. The attempt recalls the days of the Borgias. The chalice and a part of the wine have been sent to an analyst. Giusepe Treumpi, a canon of the. ca- thedral, has been detained on suspicion. Mer. Contessa was seized during the elevation. He had just raised the chal- ice for adoration and as he turned to the serving deacon and brought the chalice from his lips, he fell across the front pillar and sank to the floor in convulsions. His fall and cries of pain caused a panic in the congregation. Several women fainted. Mgr. Contessa was carried into the sacristry and an emetic was adminis- tered. He revived, and it is believed he will recover. His first words on re- gaining consciousness were that there had been poison in the chalice. The seizure was so sudden that the monsignor did not have time for the serving deacon to pour in the~custom- ary water for the ablution. The chalice fell from his hands and when picked up was still wet With wine. Some wine still remained in the small vessel from which it had been poured into the chal- ice during the celebration. This, to- gether with the chalice,. was taken charge of by the authorities. FREE ROLLER SKATES TO BOYS AND GIRLS, See the Globe's ad on Page 5 today. BOY SEEKS JOB AT POLICE STATION Lad Who Ran Away From New Jersey Home Also Asks for Something to Eat. A diminutive lad in knickerbockers trudged into Central District Police Sta- tion shortly before last midnight. “Can you give me something to eat and drink and a place to sleep and let me wash my face and help me find a job?” he asked, all in one breath. ‘Anything else?’ asked Sergeant Dris- sell. “No,”’ said the boy. I want right now.” He said he was Arthur Winkle, 16 years old, of West Hoboken, N. J. He ran away from home, he said, because he could not get along with his step- mother. The police took charge of him. GETS 46-YEAR-OLD CLAIM ee me “That’s about all Old Soldier at.Last Receives $2.31 Check. DENVER, Colo., Sept. 1—Forty-six years after he had put in a claim ssainst the Government for $2.31, James FB. Earl, a veteran of the Civil War, received his money. As the: Govern- ment pays no interest, Earl’s check, which he has just received, was for the exact amount he claimed on Aug. 16, 1865, when he was mustered out of the Union Army. At that time his pay check was short $1.60 and his clothing asilowance 71 cents. Earl served with the Fifth Iowa In- fantry and later with the Fifth Iowa Cevalry. ‘ aiix ELOPED TO: ah? +} CH ESTER ‘TO hoe AMPS LAURAMBIS. APPLICATION FOR INSURANCE MAKES MARRIAGE PUBLIC Youthful Husband Visits Brother- in-Law of Bride for Policy on Life. James N. Tuttle, an insurance agent, was greatly pleased Friday wien his young friend, Herman Melis of» 1902 South Seventh street, called at his of- fice and told him that he had come to take out a life insurance palicy. Meis had been very attentive the last. two month to Miss Laura de Muth, a sis- ter of Tuttle’s wife. “That's the right thing to do,” said Tuttle. It's a duty you owe your mother. Of course I'll have the policy made payable in her name.” “No,” replied Meis, “I think I'll make my wife the beneficiary.” “Why,” gasped Tuttle, “you are not a married man, are you? Does my sis- ter-in-law know that?’’ ."*I guess she does,’ replied Melis, ‘‘be- cause it’s her I’m married to.”’ Meis then told Tuttle how he and Miss de Muth had eloped to Chester, IL, ‘a week ago and were married. He said they didn’t want it to become known for awhile yet, and so each of them had returned to their parents’ home. Tuttig was not convinced, and insisted on see- ing the marriage certificate which Meis said his wife had at her home, 2062 Ann avenue. They got there just in time to irg from the offices of the Fergtson- McKinney Dry Goods Co., where she was employed. It iS probable that Mr. and Mrs. Méis will have another marriage ceremony performed, as both are Catholies, and contrary to the rules of the church, they were married by a justice of the peace at Chester.

| mi oA A ~AROSTUE FEE NINE MES AVA ‘Shing on Old Battleship Texas Proves Great Range—New Practice Begun.

Wire From the Washington Bu- rean of the Post-Dispatch, WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.—The exper!- mental firing on the San Marcos—the old battleship Texas—by~ the qe elaware in Tangier Sound this week, has demon- strated to officers of the Navy Depart- ment that hostilities can be opened against an enemy at a distance of nine nilles with prospects of destroying the hostile fleet. Naval officers have -been in a quandry as‘to the distance to which the 14-inch guns would carry success- fully. ‘Navy officers today explained that while the percentage of hits at this great distance is likely to be extremely small, nevertheless one successful shot is capable of destroying a ship. They look upon the destruction of the old bat- tleéship as thoroughly successful as an experiment, and is highly valuable to the navy because of the positive demon- stration of this fact. The Atlantic squadron this morning began two weeks’ target practice off Tangier Island. The shooting will be done under all sorts of weather condi- tions. The ‘smooth weather” ring has been abolished. The competitive firing will be under difficulties and the men will be required to fire at ranges up to 9000 yards. Attention will be given to night work, especially in connection with repelling attacks by torpedoes, subma- aces and aeroplanes. . Experimental aeroplane attacks expected to begin about Sept. 10..

Snap Naab, degenerate son of August; has some of his father’s excellencies. but a bad streak: trains with the outlaws end instinctively nates Hare. Holderness, representative of a big cattle company; ruthless in his methods and aligned with the rustlers; he forces @ war an Naab by seizing the latter’s water oles, Dene, a ‘“‘bad man;” outlaw and rustler.

ACK! the sadle’s slipping!’’ cried 66 Mescal, clinging closer to him. . “What luck!”” Hare muttered through: clinched teeth, and pulled hard on the bridle. But the mouth of the stallion was irdn; regardless af the sawing bit, he galloped on. Hare called steadily: ‘‘Whoa there, Silver! Whoa—slow now—whoa—easy!” and finally halted him. Hare swung down, and as he lifted Mescal off, the saddle slipped to the ground. ‘‘Lucky not to get a spill! The girth snapped. It was wet, and dried out.”’ Hare hurriedly began to repair the break with buckskin thongs that he found in a saddle-bag. The rapid pounding of the stallion’s hoofs drowned the clatter coming up the trail. A backward glance relieved Hare, for dust-clouds some few hun- dred yards in the rear showed the po- sition of the pursuing horsemen. He held in Silvermane to a steady gallop. The trail was up-hill, and steep enough to wind even a desert racer, if put to his limit. ; ‘‘Look back!’’ cried Mescal. “Can you see them? Is Snap with them?” “T can’t see for trees,’ replied Hare, over his shoulder. ‘There's dust—we're far in the lead—never fear, Mescal. The lead’s all we want.’’ Cedars grew thickly all the way up the steeper part of the divide, and ended abruptly at a pathway of stone, where Bullets zipped along the red stone, cutting lit- tle puffs of red dust, and sung through the alr. 5 “Good God!" cried Mare. “TPhey’re firing on us! They’d shoot a woman!” The wind rushed inte Hare’s ears, fil]- ing them with a hollow roar; the ground

The Heritage of blurred by in reddish sheets. The horse- men cut down the half mile to a quar- ter, lessened that, swept closer and closer, till Hare recognized Chance and Culver, and Snap Naab on his cream- colored pinto. Seeing that they could not head the invincible stallion they sheered more to the right. But Silver- mane thundered on. crossing the iine ahead of them at full three hundred yards, and went over the divide, draw- “~~ them in behind him. hen, at the sharp crack of the rifles, leaden messengers whizzed high in the air over horse and riders, and skipped along the red shale in front of the run- ning dog. “Oh—Silvermane!’’’ cried Hare, It was just a call, as if the horse were human, and knew what that pace meant to his master. The stern business of the race had ceased to rest on Hare. Silvermane was out to the front! He was like a level-rushing thunderbolt. Hare feit the-instantaneous pause be- tween his long low leaps, the gather of mighty muscles, the strain, the tension, then the quivering expulsion of force. It was a perilous ride down that red slope, not so much from the _ hissing bullets as from the washes and gullies which Silvermane sailed over. in mag- nificent leaps. Hare thrilled with sav- age delight in the wonderful prowess of his. desert king, in the primal instinct of joy at escaping with the woman he loved. ‘“Outrun!”’ he cried, with blazing eyes. Mescal’s white face was pressed close to his shoulder. “Silver has beaten them. They’H hang on till we reach the sand- strip, hoping the slow-down will let them come up in time. But they’ll be far too Jate.’’ August Naab, bareheaded, yeah shag- gy locks shaking at every step, strode off the porch and his great hands lifted Hare from the saddle. “Every day I’ve, watched the river for you,” he said. His eyes were warm and his grasp like a-vise. ~ ‘*‘Mescal—child!’’ he continued, as she came running to him. “Safe and well. He’s brought you back. Thank the Lord!"”" He took her to his breast and bent his gray head over her. Then the crowd of big and little Naabs burst from the house and eame under the cottonwoods to offer noisy welcome to Mescal and Hare. While Hare was telling his adventures not a word or a move interrupted him till he spoke of Silvermane’s running Dene down. “That's the second time!’’ rolled out Naab. “The stallion will kill him yet!’’ Hare finished his story. “What don’t you owe to that whirl- wind of a horse!”’ exclaimed Dave Naab. No other comment on Hare or Silver- mane was offered by the Naabs. “You knew Holderness had taken in Silver Cup?’ inquired Hare. August Naab nodded gloomily. “I guess we knew it,’’ replied Dave for him. “While I was in White Sage and the boys were here at home, Holderness

Snap and Dene, all of them, thought you were number thirty-one in dad’s cemetery."’ “Not yet,” said Hare. ‘‘Dene certainly looked as if he saw a ghost when Sil- vermane jumped for him. Well, he's at Silver Cup now. They’re all there. What’s to be done about it? They're openly thieves. The new brand on all your stock proves that.”’ “Such a trick we never heard of," replied August Naab. “If we had we might have spared oursélves the labor of branding the stock.”’ “But that new brand of Holderness’ upon yours proves his guilt.’’ “It’s not now a question of proof. It’s one of possession. Holderness has stol]- en my water and my stock.’”’ “They are worse than rustlers; firing on Mescal and me proves that.’’ “Why didn’t .you unlimber the long rifle?’’ interposed Dave, curiously. “I got it full of water and sand. That reminds me I must see about cleaning it. I never thought of shooting back. Silvermane was running too fast.’’ ‘Jack, you can see I am in the worst fix of my life,’’ said August Naab. ‘‘My sons have persuaded me that I was pushed off my ranges too easily. I've come to believe Martin Cole; certainly his prophecy has come true. Dave brought news from White Sage, and it’s almost unbelievable. Holderness has proclaimed himself or has actually got himself elected Sheriff. He holds office over the Mormons from whom he steals, Scarcely a day goes by in the village without a killing. The Mormons north of Lund finally banded together, hanged some rustlers, and drove the others out. Many of them have come down into our country, and Holderness now has a strong force. But the Mor- mons will.rise against him. I know it: I see it. I am waiting for it. We are God-fearing, life-loving men, slow to wrath, But’’-— The deep rolling burr in his volece showed emotion too deep for words. “They need a leader,’’ replied Hare, sharply. August Naab rose with haggard face and his eyes had the look of a man ac- cused. ‘Dad figures this way,’’ put in Dave. “On the one hand we lose our water and stock without bloodshed. We have a living in the oasis. There's little here to attract rustlers, so we may live in peace if we give up our rights. On the other hand, suppose dad°*gets the Navajos down here and we join them and g0 after Holderness and his gang. There’s going to be an all-fired bloody fight. Of course we'd wipe out the rust- lers, but some of us would get killed— and there are the wives and kids. See!”’ The force of August Naab’s argument for peace, entirely aside from his Christ- ian repugnance to the shedding of blood, was plainly unassailable. ‘‘Remember what Snap said?” asked Hare, suddenly. ‘‘One man to kill Dene! Therefore one man to kill Holderness! That would break the power of this band.”’ August Naab cast at the speaker one of his far-seeing glances; then he shook himself, as if to throw off the grip of something hard and inevitable. “I’m still master here,’’ he said, and his voice showed the conquest of his passions. “I give up Silver Cup and my stock. Maybe that will content Holderness." Some days went by pleasantly for Hare, as he rested from his'long ex- ertions. Naab’s former cheer and that of his family reasserted itself once the decision was made, and the daily life went on as usual. ‘‘Here, Jack,’ said August Naab, one morning, “get a spade and come with me. Toere’s a break somewhere in the ditch.”’ ° Work on the washed-out bank of the ditch had not gone far when Naab raised his head as if listening. “Did you hear anything?” he asked. “No,” replied Hare. “Judith! Judith! Here!’ he called. Wheeling with a sudden premonition of evil Hare saw the girl running along the wall toward them. Her face was white as death: she wrung her hands and her cries rose above the sound of the river. Naab sprang toward her and Hare ran at his heels. “PRather!— Father!” she panted. “Come —quick— the rustiers!— the rustlers! Snap! —Dene—Oh—hurry! They’ve killed Dave—they’ve got Mescal!”’ Hare. spurred by the possibilities in the half-cragzed nage speech, cast cau- tion to the winds and dashed forward into the glade. Naab’s heavy steps thudded behind him. In the corner of the porch scared and stupefied children huddled in a heap. George and Billy bent over Dave, wh sat white-faced against the steps. Bl oozed throu the fingers pressed to his breast. Zeke was trying to calm the women. “My God! Pas Ne ane See “You're not hard hit?

My son!” *“‘Dad—I got Chance and Culver—there they lie in the road—not bungled, either!” : Hare saw the inert forms of two men ying near the gate; one rested on his face, arm outstretched with a Colt gripped in the stiff hand; the other lay on his back, his spurs deep in the ground, as if driven there in his last convulsion. August Naab and Zeke carried the in- jured man into the house. he wom- en and children followed, and Hare, with Billy and George, entered last. ‘“Dad—I’m shot clean through—low down,” said Dave, as they laid him on a couch, “It’s just as well I—as any one —somebody had to—start this fight.”’ Naab got the children and the girls out of the room. The women were sai- lent now, except Dave’s wife, who clung to him with low moans. He smiled upon all with a quick intent smile, then he held out a hand to Hare, ‘Jack, we got—to be—-good friends. Don’t forget—that—when you meet— Holderness. He shot me—from yet e — killed them both—trying to get him. You —won't hang up—your gun—again—will you?” Hare wrung the cold hand ing his so feebly. ‘‘No! Dave, no! hen he fled from the room. ‘For an hour he stood on the porch waiting in dumb misery. George and Zeke came noise- lessly out, followed by their father. ‘“Tt's all over, Hare.’’ Another trag- edy had passed by this man of the des- ert, and left his strength unshaken, but his deadly quiet and the gloom of his iron face were more terrible to see than any grief. “Father, and you, Hare, come out in- to the road,’ said George. Another motionless form lay beyond Chance and Culver. It was that of a glight man, flat on his back, his arms wide; his long black hair in the dust. Under the white leve? brow the face had been crushed into a bloody curve. “Dene!’’ burst from Hare, in a whis- clas per. “Killed by a horse!’ ex-laimed August Naab. “Ah! What horse?’ ‘“Silvermane!’’ replied George. “Who rode my horse—tell me—quick!"’ cried Hare, in a frenzy. ‘It was Mescal. Listen. Let me tell you how it all happened. T was ‘out at the forge. when I heard a bunch of horses coming up the ‘tane. [ wasn't acking my gun, but I ran anyvs-ay. When got to the house there was Dave facing Snap, Dene, and a burch of zust- lers. I saw Chance at first, but not Holderness. There must have ben twenty men. ‘ ““T came after Mescal, that’s what,’ Snap was saying. *“ *¥ou can’t have her,’ Dave answere4. “ ‘We'll shore take her, an’ we want Silvermane, too,’ said: Dene. ‘So you're a horsethief as rustier?’ asked Dave. ‘**Naab, I ain’t in any mind to fool. Snap wants the girl, an’ I want Silver- mane, an’ that damned spy that come back to life.’ “Then Holderness spoke from the back of the crowd: ‘Naab, you'd better hur- ry, if you don’t want the house burned!’ ‘Dave drew and Holderness fired from behind the men. Dave fell, raised up and shot Chance and Culver, then dropped his gun. “With that the women in the house began to scream, and Mescal] ran out well as a ’ | saying she'd'go with Snap if they’4 do no. more harm. “*Al) right,” said Snap, ‘get a horse, hurry—hurry!’ “Then Dene dismounted and went to- ward the corral saying, ‘I shore want Silvermane.’ *““Mescal reached the gate ahead of Dene. ‘Let me get Silvermane. He's wild; he doesn’t know you: he'll kick you if you go near him.’ She dropped the bars and went up to the horse. He was rearing and snorting. She coaxed him:down and then stepped up on the fence to untie him. When she had him loose she leaped off the fence to his back, screaming as she hit him with the halter. Silvermane snorted and jumped, and in three jumps he was going like a bullet. Dene tried to stop him, and was knocked twenty feet. He was raising up when the stallion ran over him. He never moved again. Once in the lane Silvermane got going—Lord! how he did run! ‘hung low over his neck like an Indian.’ He was gone in a cloud of dust before Snap and the rustlers knew what had happened. Snap came to first and, yelling and waving his gun, spurred down the lane. The rest of the rustlers galloped after him.”’ August Naab placed a sympatbetic hand on Hare’s shaking shoulder. “You see, lad, things are never so bad as they seem at first. Snap might as well try to catch a bird as Silvermane.” To Be Continued in the Post- Dispatch Tomorrow. (Copyright, 1910. Harper & Bros.)

When we offer, as we do in this great sale, a large number of Pianos and Piavet-Pianos at great bargains, that were in a train wreck and which we purchased from the Railroad Com- pany’s Claim Agent, it can be fully depended upon that the reason for this sale is not only true, but that the bargains are such that will pay any contemplating purchaser to take ad- ventage of, even to come hundreds of miles to secure. Another thing please remember, we would. not have purchased this large lot of Pianos at any price, had more than a few of them been damaged internally. . Our expert not only examined them thoroughly, but we had two factory experts examine them and pass on them, so that we knew beyond a ques- tion of a doubt that, outside of a very few, they were simply case marred and some not even scratched, but heing handled several times, looked dingy from dust and hand marks, all of which cleans up nicély.

We guarantee every Piano sold at this sale to give absolute satisfaction to the purchaser, Even if it’s a $350 Piano that you may buy at this sale for $83, we guarantee absolute satisfaction for the money expended, with the privi- lege of exchange for a different in- strument any ‘time within 60 days.

Could we do this we verily believe there would not be one of these Pianos left by Saturday \ night of this week.

Both as a spectacle and as an achieve- ment, the proposed river flight froin Minneapolis to New Orleans, under the auspices of the Aero Club of St. Louis, will probably be even more impressive than at first. planned.

AURORA, Ill., Sept. 1.—How John W. Gates came to draw two wills was told by. relatives who are beneficiaries un- details of which were published yesterday. When the first will was drawn two years ago, leaving the estate of nearly $40,000,000 in trust for 10 years, values of certain stocks held by Gates were bobbing up and down to a marked de- gree. Friends of Gates, as well as the financier himself, had invested in these securities. As Gates believed that the stocks were due to find stability at a good advance evéntually, Justice Gil- ¢ ~sleeve, who drew the first will, ad- vised that the will should provide for a trust, and Gates assented. Last March, however, just on the eve of his departure for Europe, market conditions were settled, and Gates drew a new will, leaving his great wealth un- conditionally to his widow, Dellora Gates, and his gon, Charles Gates, sub- J ject to specific bequests of a little more than $1,000,000 to friends and other rela- tives.

' -| said, DUKE WOULD BE! $100,000 HIS BOAT BEATS AMERICAN ) in Englishman’s Confidence Motor Vessel Nearly Staggers Owner of the Dixie IV. HE’S THINKING IT OVER Offer of Big Wager Is on the Pioneer in Races for British International Trophy. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—W hen a man is willing to bet $100,000 on a motor boat beating another gasoline-driven boat, he has some confidence, not to say sport- ing blood, in his make-up. This was What the devotees of motor boat rac- ing thought at Huntington Harbor to- day when they heard that the Duke of Westminster, owner of the Pioneer mo- tor boat, had sent a cablegram to 1 “2d Burnham, helmsman and part owner of the noted Dixie IV, that he was will- ing to wager, in whole or part, £20,000 that the Pioneer would beat the Dixie IV in the races for the British interna- tional trophy. When Burnham received the message he was dumbfounded by the offer. He had not expected any such challenge. Although he is not averse to a sport- ing proposition of any kind, the magni- tude of the bet suggested by the Duke nearly staggered Burnham. ‘‘Hum,” he “I guess I'll think it over. The Pioneer must be even faster than she was last year, when she showed more speed than the Dixie III, to warrant such a message. Pioneer Could Have Won. “The Pioneer tould have won the race last year,” said Burnham to a crowd of friends, ‘‘if Capt. Niel Robing had net tried to make a monkey out of me by trying to beat the Dixie III by a quarter“of a mile. If he had been con- tent with beating me a hundred yards the Pioneer would have won. Since her improvements she undoubtedly has in- creased her speed four or five miles an bour.”’ The Pioneer Arrived at the scene of the races vesterday on a steam launch. Her captain and chief engineer were noncommittal to all inquiries regarding her condition and speed. There is some talk that Vita II, which may be a run- ring mate of Dixie IV, is capable of making 55 miles an hour and would show that she could maintain it In the race. 40 Miles an Hour to Win. “Tf she does that,’ said “Burnham, ‘she will win the raee. The Dixie 1V will not beat her. 3ut I doubt the Vita’s ability to maintain that speed. In my opinion 40-miles-an-hour speed wili win the race. When one considers that a boat in a 30-mile race actually covers nearly forty miles in a four- round course she has to travel faster than the watches indicate. ‘Tt’s marvelous what the Dixie’s en- gines are capable of. The hull weighs 00 pounds. She carries 800 pounds of gas 10 pounds of oil, five men weigh- ing 850 pounds in the aggregate, and two engines that weigh 4500 pounds, a toial of 8250 pounds, or four and one- quarter tons.”’ For Touring Cars Phone Olive 2100, or Central 68; $4.00 per | hour.

MINISTER LONG A VICTIM Also Three Newlyweds Who Have Received Vicious Unsigned Letters. Srecial to the Post-Dispatch. . EASTON, Pa., Sept. 1—Three bridal couples whose honeymoon happiness “the poisoned pen of Easton” sought to destroy have become the central fig- ures in ths strange case of Miss Harriet When the young woman, whese ancestors have been prominent in New Jersey for the best part of the State’s history, comes before United States Comissioner Turner today for hearing’ upon the charge of sending scurrilous, malicious and indecent letters through the mail, nearly all of the ac- tion of a curious psychological drama will cling about the three cooing and billing couples. This peculiarly interesting study is af- forded in the charge against the young woman of wealth; had life alone, un- marked by love during nearly forty ears, produced such a mental state with the spinster that the marital hap- piness of young people around her re- sulted in hatred, jealousy and a de- parture from a usually well-ordered life? That is the line on which the Govern- ment in its prosecution is proceeding. At the outset it should be frankly said that the Government clings to a slender thread of evidence. Upon the rudely printed line: “I write you these few lines” hangs the entire prosecution of Miss de Witt. The identical words printed in capital letters with pen, open nearly all of more than 300 letters now in possession of the Government and the witnesses who are interested in the trial. When Miss de Witt was brought be- fore Postoffice Inspector Spaneberger he had absolutely no evidence against her. Month after month the Government had marked the stamps that were sold the young woman at the postoffice. The officials had even placed a marked lot of stamps at a drug store near her home with instructions to the clerk *o sell them only to Miss de Witt. Not one of the marked stamps came to light on any of the letters that marred the happiness ofthis pretty little city. No detective ruse had trapped her during the five years that the secret sleuths of the Government sought proof of authorship. She came before the official on the day of her arrest as free from a con- necting link of fact as a child. Then acting upon an impulse, Shanenberger proposed that it would be a good idea for the Government to get samples of the handwriting of all those interested in the letters. Marsh Miller, her attorney and coeu- sin, blandly admitted that the scheme was good. Miss de Witt freely and glad- ly wrote and printed for the detectives. As she -had finished he held up the product of her pen and declared that she had written the hundreds of letters ee em eee eS that have been a scandal to the city. In tears she made denial.

Pastor Is Involved. P The heartaches and the misgivings and doubtings that these letters have brought cling in the main about. the Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church. The Rev. Dr. Elmer E. Snyder is its pastor. His parsonage lies around the corner in Ferry street. Directly across the street is the dovecote wherein Mrs. Margaret White Tiffany and her young husband are still basking in the soft light of a honeymoon. Diagonally to the right is a second dovecote in which Mrs. Bessie Crater Mayfield and her youthful lord and master are duplicat- ing the halcyon day bliss of their neigh- bors. The parsonage itself is a dove- cote, for Dr. Snyder, its young master, but last fall brought to it a witching and beautiful bride. For all the years that Dr. Snyder has been pastor of the church he has been the target of the anonymous ‘letter writer whose efforts have brought Miss de Witt to trouble. As the parson in “When a Man’s Single,” he was not much worried over the allegations. But no sooner had his bride come to share his home than the letters took a sin- ister and bitter turn. He was told that the young Venus he had brought to share his life had danced, totally unclad, before a dozen men who paid for the view. The letter is among those in the mass of docu- mentary evidence. He was told that his wife had lived another life on the far Pacific Coast. Even an ostrich pliome that adorned her mammoth hat was charged in another epistle to have been stolen. | At the same time Clarence Beck, a prominent attorney and member, of the official board of the church, got let- ters in which the preacher was charged with turning his parsonage into a tem- ple’ of Oriental orgies. He was charged with going the pace that kills and with nearly all of the other sins that have brought wrath of the Almighty and the condemnation of the sinner upon one of their own kind. Brother Robert Klerch, in his jewelry store at the main square, found similar letters touching upon the handsome young man whose ministry had pleased his flock for many years. J. M. R. Shimer; a leading business man, had jthe awful deeds of his shepherd passed in anonymous review before his aston- ished gaze. The mild and gentle Rev. Dr. J. OC; Seagers, pastor of a big church not far removed from the Snyder charge, was berated because he passed some nights under the Snyder roof during the ab- sence of the minister. He was told that he had laid in the house of mammon and in the chief tent of the unright- eous. Then the scene in the psychological drama shifts. Mrs. Bessie Crater May- field becomes the target of the masked battery of authorship. She has plighted her troth to a young man of the town. They have reached the stage of court- ship where the world is a dream and there is go setting of the alarm clock. Suddenly the post brings to her a letter telling of a fictitious old affair in which the roses faded from an in- nocent girlhood. They cried a while and exploded a while, and then their happy marriage closed the incident. Mrs. Margaret White Tiffany, young ang fair, has pledged her love to a youth who exemplified to her all of the manly virtues. “The poisoned pen of Faston” went into his private life and accused him of untoward things. Already the Rev. Dr. Snyder, tor- tured through the years, had made every effort to get a personal inves- tigation. When Mrs. Tiffany joined his insistence the officials acted in earnest. They hag sent._two postal inspectors, who never got near the trail to seek the writer. Both had dropped the job as hopeless. Then came Shanenberger with the final re- sult of an arrest. But the young woman now held was not at first selected as the of- fender. Suspicion went to an old woman of the neighborhood who was openly taxed with the offense. To her and not to the-younger woman, whose home lies at an angle to the left, across from the parsonage, was at- tributed the perpetration of the epis- tles of hate. Evidently the author must be of the immediate neighborhood, for the letters spoke of the minister’s young wife 1s having come to sweep her stoop in less than the allotment of raiment that is prescribed for an Easter parade. “What motive could a young woman, ae —- omoww-- — > —— ——— ae LAST DAY OF SALE Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes at Final Reductions 13 You should positively be here tomorrow.

aa nai SHOWS HACK IS READY FOR TILT WITH GOTCH

After Watching “Lion” in Workout J. E. Wray Says No Man Could Be More Physically Fit. BY JOHN E. WRAY, Sporting Editor, Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, IIL, Sept. 1. enschmidt, dubbed the ‘‘ Russian Lion,’’ and onetime wrest- ae is the story of a man with a purpose. He is George Hack- ling champion of the world. His purpose is to wipe out a stain on his escutcheon blotched here. at Dexter Park Pavilion Chicago, in 1908, at the hands of the American, Frank Gotch, whom he will meet here Labor day, at 3 o’clock. So deep is this purpose, that it is irrespective of great wealth, sacrifice of time, infinite pains and popular opinion. It has obsessed him since the memorable day when he lost his crown. 7 This personified purpose was born July 17, 1877, on the borderline of Rus- sia, near what was then Teutonic do- main, of German parentage. A sturdy youth, he took to athletics, of which the most popular expression then wis Graeco-Roman wrestling. Short of stat- ure, but sturdy of build, he achieved local success, then provincial fame, then finally, after years of effort, he won the International tournament at St. Petersburrc, Russia, which is the goal of all ambitious matmen on the Continent. Tt gave him immediate prestige and at once he engaged in match after match of constantly increasing impor- tance. He won 2000 matches, with never a fall against him. His prodig- icus strength made him a terror to ail, Finally the Sultan's prized giant, Ma- drali, himself unbeaten, undertook to throw Hackenschmidt. He failed.. ce failed again. 5 Hiack was undisputed champion »f the world. He gaired thousands of dol- lars in vaudeville and eventually grew to be owner of an agency. He bougit a prosperous cutlery manufacturing plant, which he still owns. He became a near-millionair2, if not one i. fact. Then came Gotch. Proud of his prow- ess, disdainful of opposition, overcon‘fi- dent of his own strength, which had a limit, great as it was, Hack went into the ring wit.. a smart, shrewd, re- sourceful, punishing opponent—the man from Iowa. Hack had never met a man who could hold him for # minutes. His victories were ridiculously easy. ric expected a similar result with Gotch. But the perfectly trained American harried him, tortured him by every le- * gal trick known to the trade, obcessed him with his own impotency until he quit—not thrown, but beaten after over two Hours of harassment. Then originated the PURPOSE. The “Lion’’ feeling that he had been tricked, determined to retrieve his reputation; to wipe out its only stigma, and to that end. he made the match which will’ ma- ture-here Labor Day. To bring this purpose to a focus Hiack has sacrificed the ease which goes with $1,000,000 of wealth; consented to jet the money end of his contest be a second consideration; he received but $11,000 to Gotch’s $21,000. Trained faithfully for three years; met every wrestler of consequence the & quarters, in beautiful, drowsy -Edgewater, where he did some road work and later toyed with a dumbbell that weighed over 150 pounds, That waz Siz training stunt. To the inexpert eye—ilt is. impossible to get him to submit to a physician's report, before the official one that will be requir-1 of him the day of the Inatch—no man could possibly be more physically fit. Nearly §§ three shorter than the champion he is to meet his development elsewhere is impressive. His chest is as deep as a barrel, arched and broad as well; the muscles stan‘ out all over him, under stress lika knotted and withering snakes. He did not wrestle, but his gymnasium move- ments indicated activity and his prodig- jous strength is undoubted. He put up a dumbbell weighing 168 pounds four times with his right hand. The only visible defect in his wor’ | SAW Hack, today, at his training “was that he walked with a slight limp,: due to a blister acquired thiough too much work on the road. ' “Another Reno” was the whisper that went round, when it was first noted here that Hack would do no wrestling In Chicago. It was remembered that the game refusal to box cost Jeffries lis effort to “come bes ane Ht for the fight title. But—— . “Why should I wrestle?” said Hack, in response to a question. “I have not stcpped mat work for nearly two years. I made a campaign through this coun- try last winter and wrestled many bouts with the very best the country affords. After that I have been wrestling with Roller in England all the time. It is not wrestling practice that I am after. I want to keep in conditon.” “Yes,” put in Chief Trainer Roller, “and practicing with Hack is worse than wrestling many «a finish match.” “And if I keep at it to the last min- ute, I might do myself some hurt, | continued Hack. “And if I. am not right, I do not go on against Gotch. That is so.” And it is SO. It ia this fact that. has kept his manager, Jack Curley, from insisting on workouts, even though he riska the confidence of the public.

Zbyszko Has $10,000 to Back Challenge to Winner of Bout BUFFALO, N. Y., Sept: 1. ACK HERMAN, manager of J Stanislaus Zbyszko, the Polish champion, left for Chicago to- day with a certified check for $10,- 000 in his pocket, which hs says will be used to back up a challenge to the winner of the Gotch-Hacken- sthmidt match. If the winner declines to accept the challenge, an effort will be made to arrange a match with the loser for a like sum.

United States could pit against him; sacrificed all his time and outside busi- ness for one year to the acquisition of condition and knowledge of the game that Gotch made great, catch-as-catch- can, such self-abnegation. means not only a purpose, but a self-confidence that is worth paying attention to. It was this embodiment of an idea that I saw, talked to and observed today. The Russian is so. imbued with his purpose that he has all but made him- self unpopular here. He has been inter- viewed, in actuality, perhaps half a doz- en times. Educated, exclusive, saturat- ed with the British idea of privacy, he objects to having his workouts witnessed save by those properly indorsed by friends. And then he does not like it. As will witness this verity: A newspaper man called at Hack’s quarters. ‘I’ve come to watch you work out, Hack,’’ he said. Hack did not per- form. Afterwards he remarked to one of his trainers: “The impudence of him, without even asking me, too.’’ This exclusiveness has given rise to many speculations, most of them derog- atory to Hack’s condition. But, the truth is, his retirement is just part of the intentness with which he views his purpose; it is not any one’s affair but his own, to him. There its no thought of the thousands who are com- ing miles to see his work here; no ap- preciation of the fact that $75,000 wi}! probably be the total paid to see the master at his work. first, last and all the time; the Hack who is going to beat Gotch, Monday. Russian Is Limping Slightly, Due ‘to Blister Acquired in Road Work FURPOSB. That is to win. “I vill vin, too,” is what Hack says in response to questions. Nor will he discuss the hows or wherefores of his method of procedure. If there is anything in an efficient triining staff, Hack should not entef tre ring unfit to perform the task he has set himself. In his menage are Or. Roller, a 217-pound athlete, who is just next to the championship class; Jecob Koch, who threw the giant Pole, Stavislaus Cyganiewicz, . known as Zbyszko, four times, and who held the kKiuropean championship before he re- tireé from the game, and Gus Schoen- lcin, known as Americus. Koch came all the way from Germany just to see this match. These rugged specimen are needed, too, for the involuntary roughness of the Russian would wear out a weakling in short order. His tremendous strength is: shown in his match with Ordeman, whom he.meét earlier in the year. Hack wrenched all the muscles loose from this star’s shoulders and practically put him out of commission, powerful as he is. Ordeman has not wrestled since. I saw Hackenschmidt the man, later in the day, when he paid his first visit to the heart of Chicago, that is, the first since his arrival here this trip. At his training quarters he is crotchety, moody, impatient of questioning. At ease with his friends, he was talk- ative and friendly, but not on the sub- ject of wrestling. Educated—he speaks English, German, French and Russian fluently—wealthy, and averse to the conditions which sur- round the sport, one can hardly fail to be impressed by the personality of the man, as well as by his physique. Hack will sel€éom talk about his pre- vious match with Gotch. But at times his trainers let drop hints as to what he thinks. He knows now that he un- der-estimated Gotch, when he went into the ring with him without proper prep- aration. “Hack has been heartbroken over that defeat,” said Dr. Roller. “But his own carelessness cost him the bout. He has never met a man who could wresti¢ 99 minutes with him and not be thrpwn, He pooh-poohed the American; Ny sleet. ed hit training, dnd was unwise

And in that time the Lion’s shoul- ders had not been put down. Nature would simply no longer sustain him. I know wrestlers. [I Know Gotch, for I have wrestled him and wrestled with him. I know that he lacks Hack’s endurance and stamina. The latter has gained in ex- perience in wrestling, and is entirely another man than he was when he was beaten in 1908. As. to coming back, Gotch is an older man than Hack, and he has done little wrestling, save in re- cent training. Gotch is over 3% years of age, while Hack was 34 July 17 last. If there is any ‘coming back’ to be done it will be done on the part of Gotch.

Gotch got in early in the day, and with his staff, stopped st the Mor- rison Hotel. He will do his training stunts at the Chicago Athletic Asso- clation’s gymnasium. Gotch an- nounced early that he would give a public exhibition for the newspaper men and photographers, unless he found he was too tired after his journey to this point. Gotch, in his street clothes, looked to be in splendid condition. He would say little except that he was confident, ‘which generally has about the same significance as an insolvent man’s statement thet his business !s good. Gotch's condition, however, is vouched for by “Farmer” Burns. Gotch ‘stated today that there would be no difficulty over the rules.

REGAN AND TRENDALL IN BOXING SKETCH In addition to the wrestling match be- tween Tim McCarthy and Max Lutt- beg, the latter champion lightweight mat artist, at Mannion’s Park Monday right, a number of local boxers, includ- ing Harry Trendall and Johnny Regan, will try out a new sketch called “In a boxer’s training camp,” in which they will show the methods used by fighters to get in condition. Luttbeg and Me- Carthy, in their previous meeting wres- tled two hours and 36 minutes before Luttbeg was finally able to gain a fal] cn the St. Loufls Hibernian. , — Jack Dillon, the crack middleweight of In- dianapolis, has arrived at New Orleans and is putting on the finishing touches there for his 10-round bout with Eddie McGoorty, the rugged fighter of Oshkosh, Wis., which takes place before the New Orleans A. C. on the night of Sept. 4.

CHeaGo PLAYS the fourth, which put the game on ice NEW YORK TODAY Game Will Practically. Decide Championship in National Printers’ Tournament, New York and Chicago will meet in the National Printers’ Baseball League game at League Park Friday afternoon, and the winner will play Cincinnati for the championship Saturday. St. Louls lost to. Chicago Thursday, 13 to 4, while Cincinnati defeated Denver, 11 to 8. The local nine was away off form fhursday. Hanley and Moll were both hit hard and besides, the St. Louisans were charged with eight fielding breaks. Chicago got off with a four-run lead in the first inning anc collected two runs in the third and another pair in for the Windy City experts. Pierce, whe did the flinging for Chicago, bad the St. Louls batsmén puzzled an they were only able to connect safely with his slants on five occasions, friday will practically decide the cham- pionship, as Chicago and the Gotham- ites, on the form shown so far, have an edge on Cincinnati. Cincinnati has teen playing good ball, but the wise sharps have it that the winning team Friday will surely take the Queen City men into camp Saturday. At the business meeting: of the league held at the Southern Hotel Thursday the 1912 tournament was awarded to Bos- ton and the following officers elected: Harry B. Wood, New York, president; Joseph H. Fanetough, Boston, vice- president; J. M. McGowan, Chicago, sec- retary and treasurer.

Johnny Bender, coach of the St. Leuis University football team, who !s at Vin- cemnes, Ind., in a letter to the Post- Dispatch says he has received word from Joe Bayer of Edwardsville, Iil., that he will enter the dental department of the university and try for the foot- bati team. Bender thinks that Bayer will prove one of his most valuable men, as he is six feet tall and weighs over 200 pounds. Fender states that In view of the hard games on the blue and white schedule he would like to line up a couple of more Bayers. Ed Kavanaugh of Musselford, Mo., another recruit from whom Bender ex- pected a lot, has written to the peppery little St. Louis U. football mentor that he will be unable to attend the univer- sity this year. Kavanaugh, according to Bender, weighs 180 pounds and was almost certain to make the team. Bender expects to arrive in St. Louis rext Wednesday and will start work im- mediately with the football men new in the city at St. Louis University Park.

HERE’S THE CARD | FOR MONDAY’S SHOW Leo Kelly vs. Jimmy Foley, i33 pounds. Charley Dalwitz vs. Govern, 122 pounds. Joe Genail vs. Will pounds. Eddie Stafford vs. Jack Bennett, 110 pounds. All bouts are scheduled for six rounds, no decision to be rendered. Benny Mc- Ford, 122 Leo Kelly, who will meet Jimmy Fo- ley, the Canadian lightweight, in a six- round pbout at the Coliseum Monday evening under the auspices of the Mo- zart Society, declares that he is in the best trim since he quit the amateur ranks. Kelly says he will be very much surprised if he does not stop Foley. Kelly has worked hard for the past two weeks as he thought he was going to met a chance at Packey McFarland. Kelly has been training with fast men and while Kelly packs a hard punch, his speed is going to surprise Foley. In his 2-round fight with Everett Gray, the sturdy Collinsville miner, Kel- ly twice dropped Gray to the canvas, but Gray has never been knocked out and he refused to stay down for the count. It is believed that Kelly will have a slight advantage in weight on Foley. The weight agreed on is 133 pounds. Harry Cook to Referee. Kelly is determined to perform at his best Monday, as he knows that if he makes a good showing that he will be sent against some top-notch lightweight later in the season. Leo has trained at ithe Business Men’s Gymnasium and all of the boys who wanted to put on the gloves with him were given a chance to show what they could do. Harry Cook of the Business Men’s Gymnasium will referee the bout but no decision will be rendered. | Three bouts that promisé some keen battling have been arranged as pre- liminaries. Benny McGovern, the “Pride” of the M. A. C., will meet Charley Dalwitz at 122 pounds. Both of the boys-are clever and fast on thelr feet and should furnish a pretty ex- hibition. Application for membership blanks cap be obtained at the club’s quarters in the Coliseum, 2612 Washington. ave- nue, or from Jim Solari at Sixth and Pipe streets. None but members will be admitted and the membership list wi'l positively close Saturday. The po- lice have again been invited to attend and see that nobody but members in good standing are admitted io witness tke contests. ———__-¢———— M. A.C. MAY PUT ON PRO. BOXERS Athletic Board Will Decide Branch of Bouts to Stage This Winter. The “Missouri A. C. Athletic Board will hold an important meeting next Thursday at which a new swimming instructor will be engaged and plans for the winter athletic events at the club mapped out. One of the questions that the club will’ consider is whether to have pro- fessional or amateur boxing at the club. There are few amateurs of skill -re- maining in the ranks, most of them having joined the professional colony. Of course it would be possible to de- velop some clever boxers but as soon as a boxer gets a reputation he is given a chance to appear in a professional) fit to turn down the cash offers. The M. A. C. could without a doubt hold professional bouts. The talk has been going the rounds at the club that professional bouts will be put on in the near future HMmited to six rounds with no decisions, Dr. C. W. Bassett, direc- tor of athletics at the club, states that while he personally is in favor of ama- teur boxing it is up to the club to de- cida@a what it wants in the way of athletic entertainments. Alex Meffert, who has been swimming instructor at the Chicago A, C. and who is rated the best man in the coun- try, resigned Thursday from the Windy City club. His resignation was for the simple reason that his hours were too long. Meffert was swimming instruc- tor at the M. A. C. when the club was opened. He says he is willing to return to the M. A. C. if given enough salary, but it is hardly probable that the M. A. C. board will see its way clear to meet Meffert’s demands. COCK FIGHTS STOPPED Taft Prohibits All Animal Bat- tles in Canal Zone.

Foreclosure suits were filed in the United States Circuit Court Friday by Attorney Claud D. Hall asking that three pieces of real estate owned by the E. G. Lewis eemene be sold to sat- isfy age: -wrony The p rty consists of one tract of 68 acres of improved property in Uni- vérsity City, the Weman’s Magazine Building, and the real estate it occupies, and the Woman’s National Daily and its real estate. The suits 1..ake five fore- closure suits pending against the Lewis real estate, and include all the mort- gages issued by the Lewis companies. Florence K. Hook, a resident of Iowa, and F. E. York and Agnes M. York ask the foreclosure of a declaration of trust on 68 acres to secure a note issue amounting to $236,250. They allege that a portion of the property was sold, and that the money was not applied to the indebtedness on it. This property is also subject to a $400,000 deed of trust held by. the Metropolitan Life Insur- ance Co. George W. Parker of Wisconsin asks the foreclosure of a mortgage for $450,- 000 on the Woman’s Magazine property, the notes being held by many persons in different parts of the country. Lyman C. Stephens of Indiana asks the fore- closuré of a mortgage for $150,000 on the Woman's National Daily property. - FIREMEN BURNED GIVING EXHIBITION Three Injured in County at Fire Which Was Meant for - Sham.

ALL GAMES ON SQUARE Playing for Money Penitentiary Offense’ in State, and Investi- gation Is Likely. Special to the Post-Dispatch. _ RENO, Nev., Sept. 1.—The roulette whee! is spinning and the faro dealer is slipping the lHttle box in the State penitentiary at Carson, the capital of Nevada. The-prisoners are gambling to their hearts’ content with the high approval, not to say suggestion, of Warden Baker. e ‘ Nevada, after the most bitter political fight in her history, abolished gam- bling in all its forms from the State not so long ago. Yet thé convicts in the penitentiary are privileged to gam- ble with the very devices, possession of which outside the State’s jail sends a rman to that prison. Diversion for Convicts. Warden Baker holds that betting on the turn of a card, or whether the little ivory ball will fall in.a red or black, an odd or even number, is the best form of diversion for convicts. Gam- bling diverts their minds, ends their worries and obliterates for the time be- ing their brooding memories. , In many ways’ Warden Baker is con- sidered the best prison’ official Ne- vada ever has had; he has made radical changes in dealing with convicts; he gives them as much freedom of action as is possible within four walls; he places them on their honor, yet he de- mands the strictest obedience to his rules. Criminologists from all over the world who have examined his methods have praised them. Yet it is probable that the State authorities will order an investigation of the gambling in his modéel prison. The convicts play with prison money which is current only in the prison; on its face it is equivalent to real money, it is redeemable at the order of the prisoner possessing It, and is used in checking against the institution's books. The house rules governing this gambling institution with barred windows and steel doors forbids anyone to play him- self overboard. In any event he cannot lose or win much, for only a small amount of prison money its allowed each gambler each day and -he cannot play on credit. Faro and Roulette Favorites. Faro and roulette are the favorite games, but chuck-a-luck, Kliondyke poker and fan tan have their devotees, and men who once moved in the higher walks of life enjoy whist. Craps is for- bidden as a vulgar game that leads to quarrels. But every game that is played is above board and on the level. When the gamblers, convicted of murder, high- way robbery, burglary, grand larceny or pocket picking—when crooks of evcry sort set down *to a game, they know they must play a gentleman’s game. They respect the Warden and they re- spect the privilieges he grants them; they would ostracise the mean thief who would try to cheat at cards. FREE ROLLER SKATES TO BOYS

¥RIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 1, 1911. Crown Prince Expects Stork. DANTZIG, Prussia, Sept. 1—On pub- lishing the program that has been ar ranged for Sept. 15, when the German Crown Prince takes: over command of the bodyguard of Hussars, the Dantzig Zeitung today announced that Crown Princess Cecilie would not be able to come to Dantzig for some time, as she is expecting a happy family event. SHE GOT WHAT SHE WANTED This Woman Had to Insist Strongly, But It Paid ‘*T suffered from a female ailment mach trouble, and I went to BF the store to get a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege- table Compound, but the clerk did not want: to let me have it—he said ‘it was no good and wanted me to try something else, but knowing all about it I in- If sisted and finally Lk f. § got it, and I am so glad I did, for it has @ured me. |. ‘*I know of so many cases where women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound that I can say to every suffering woman if that medicine does not help her, there is nothing that will.’’—MRS. JAN- ETZKI, 2963 Arch St., Chicago, Ill. This is the age of substitution, and women who want a cure should insist upon Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound just as this woman did, and not accept something else on which the druggist can make a little more profit. Women who are suffering from any of those distressing ills peculiar to their sex should not lose sight of the fact that for thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, which is made from roots and herbs, has been the standard remedy for fe- male ills. In almost every community you will find women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable.Compound. BABY’S SKIN IN TERRIBLE CONDITION Now Crust is Gon: and Skin Smooth as Veivet —_ %

What was a most pitiful sight, a baby in terrible misery and a mother nearly crazed by suffering, is now transformed to a happy, healthy, crowing baby, and a mother well and joyful. Her letter follows: ‘“My baby had a crust come on his skin which covered his whole body. My doctor recommended the use of Resinol Ointment. I tried it and it eured him. His skin is now as smooth as velvet. I shall always keep a jar on hand. My hands were cracked and bleeding, and one application of Res- inol Ointment cured them.’’ MRS. M. LANSDOWNE, Paulsboro, N. J. Resinol Ointment, when applied to inflammatory and eruptive skin dis- eases as eczema, boils, pimples, rash, prickly heat, sunburn, chaps, cracks, itching and inflamed piles, etc., brings instant relief and is quick in its ac- tion. It is the best curative applica- tion for sores, cuts, burns, scalds and abrasions of the skin of any kind. Resinol is non-irritant and absolutely harmless even when applied to de- nuded surfaces of the tender infant’s body. It stops itching instantly and promptly allays inflammation. Resi- nol Ointment comes in opal jars of two sizes, at fifty cents and a dollar. -Resinol Soap used with Resino] Oint- mént expedites the healing. It pro- tects and nourishes the skin.
