~ VERDICT CRIMINAL CARELESSNESS FOR CHAUFFEUR NOLIE _Man Who Drove Joy Riders, Killing John W. Groves, a Cook, at Sixth and Wash- ington Will Be Prosecuted in the Careuit ¢ Court.

HELD FOR TRIAL BY THE CORONER’S JURY Four Occupants of Automo- bile to Appear as Witness- es — Chauffeur Admits That All of the Party Had Had Several Drinks on the Night of Accident. Carl Nolte of 2023 Mullanphy atreet, who was driving the automo- bile which ran down and killed John W. Groves at Sixth street and Wash- ington avenue Friday morning, was held by a Coroner’s jury Saturday to be guilty of criminal carelessness, In the custody of the police he was re- manded'to the Circuit Attorney for such action as he might see fit to take against him. The four occupants of the automo- bile, Claude Bernero of 603 Beaumont street, George Boehm of 4316 North Grand avenue and Ruth Stevens and Cynthia Carrell, were held as wit- nesses and .were sent under police escort to the Circuit Attorney’s of- fice. - : After the automobile hit Groves, who lived at 914 North Tenth street, Nolte drove away. A recently enacted statute makes it a felony for the driver of an automobile not to stop swhen he hits or injures a person. Driving at High peed. =e testimony tended to show that N te was driving the automobile at a ed of twenty-five to thirty miles an , ,. that he made no effort to turn out e way to avoid hitting Groves, and that he did not sound his horn. Nolte himself testified that the horn was out of order, and that he could not give any signal. He said the brakes were also out of order, making it difficult to stop the machine, which, he said, belonged to John Holland of the Marquette Hotel. After all the eye witnesses to the necident and the occupants of the auto- mobile had been examined by the Coro- mer, Nolte was asked if. he wished to make a sworn statement, being ad- vised that he could decline if he wished. He said he desired to state the truth. He then said that he started in the Automobile with the four occupants, from Jefferson and Washington avenues about $3 a. m: and drove to the Wood- lawn Club, where all members of the party had several drinks. They went to Circardi’s place in East St. Louis and had more drinks. Saw Groves Start Across Street. “As I was driving up Washingtca avenue, near Sixth street, a Park or “Page car was coming east,” he. testi- . fied. “I saw Groves starting across the street. He-seemed to get confused afte: he had stepped out of the way of the “te automobile, and stepped again right in front of it. ~< 4 After. the automobile struck him he

jis hung on ‘tothe bumpers for about 25 \ feet. The automobile brakes were worn ptt, making it impossible to check tie speed of the car in time to avert ihe accident. I was 80 excited and confused | _ gfter the accident thatyI kept on. I ' ‘went to the Crescent Hotel at Leffing- well and Locust street, intending to sur- render to the police, but was arrested . pefore I had an opportunity to do so.” Frank Nybak, a railroad employe, testified that he saw the automobile hit Groves. He said Nolte made no effort to turn the machine aside to avoid Groves, and that he thought the ma- chine must have been running at a speed of % to % miles an hour. Frank Neuwald of 4150 Turner street testified that he saw the automobile going very fast. Ed Meyers of lil4 Chouteau avenue testified that he fell down trying to get out of the way of the machine, and that he came near being run over. on 3EL TALIAFERRO SUES FOR DIVORCE Wife of Frederick pson Makes Cruelty Basis of Action.

F Felix Cost: Serious y Injured by Lynn Milford in Fratern ty Room at Univer-ity.

Felix Coste, 19 years old, a freshman at Washington University, was shot in the right groin Saturday afternoon when a revolver was accidentally discharged in the hands of Lynn Milford, 19, who was toying with the weapon.

The young men were close friends and were spending the lunch hour Sat- urday in the Phi Delta Flata fratern- ity room at the university. Milford took the “revolver from his pocket and start- ed to unload it, telling his companion he wanted to oil the gun. Coste stood ew few feet away looking at Milford as he ‘“broke’’ the revolver. The two or three other Students in the room were surprised when they heard a pistol shot. As they looked toward Milford and Coste they saw Coste fall to the floor. The revolver dropper from the injured hand of Mil- charged. on Other students picked up Coste and carried him to an adjoining room and an ambiilance was otelephoned for.

HUGH JENNINGS SERIOUSLY HURT IN AUTO WRECK SCRANTON, Pa., Dec. 2.—Hugh Jen- nings, manager of the Detroit American League baseball club, and Rev. Peter F. Lynett of Matamoras, Pa., who were seriously injured in the Pocono Moun- tains last night when Jennings’ auto- mobile fell off a bridge, were brought to a hospital here today and after a further examination the doctors said that both men have a chance for recovery. Jennings is believed to be injured in- ternally. His left arm is’ broken and whether his skull] is fractured cannot be: determined until an X-ray of his head has been developed. On: the’ train from. Gouldsboro,. Pa., near where the aceident occurred, Jennings regained consciousness long enough to recognize his brother and several relatives. Father Lynett’s arm, right leg and three ribs on his right side are broken. Mr. and Mrs. David Holden of Mata- moras, who were also in the automobile, escaped with slight injuries.

Pocono Mountains and his automobile became disabled. He left it at Goulds- boro to be repaired and returned there yesterday with Father Lynétt to bring the machine here. While in Gouldsboro Father Lynett married the Holdens and Jennings invited them to start their honeymoon with an automobile trip to Scranton. At 11:30 p. m. the party approached a small bridge over the Lehigh River, about three miles from Gouldsboro. On the approach something went wrong with the steering gear and the auto- mobile swerved,’ crashed into the rail and fell 10 feet into the river. Jennings and Father Lynett were caught under the machine. Persons liv- ing nearby heard the crash and, sum- moning help, managed to lift the wrecked automobile from the injured men. Jennings, Father Lynett and the Holdens were removed to a farmhouse and local physicians gave prompt at- tention. All efforts to rouse Jennings proved futile until today. The automobile was the one Detroit rtaseball enthusiasts @presented to Jen- nings. Jennings was on a hunting trip in the

INDICTMENT FOR AMBLING POINTS 10 POLITICAL GLUB An indictment for gambling was returned by the October grand jury Saturday in its final report against the officials of a local club, the name of which was withheld pending ar- rests of the indicted persons. About a month ago the police made a visit to the Jefferson Club and several arrests for gambling re- sulted. There were but three indictments re- turrred out of nine considered, and of the other two one was against Della Bogesky and her attorney, Carey L. Carson, charged with obtaining $720 by false pretenses from the United Raitl- Ways on account of a personai injury claim. The third is against Harry J. Cohen, a junk dealer on North Seventh street near O’Fallon street, charged with re- ceiving stolen -property, the specific charge being that he received 68 yards of blue cloth stolen from the /Manhat- tan Cloth Co. The grand jury.made one of the short- est reports on record and had little un- favorable criticism for public institu- tions. In regard to the jail, the jury suggested that the work of building a new one should begin at an early date as the money had been appropriated, the land purchased and the present jail is not adequate. The Industrial School buildings are said by the jury to be the worst of any public institution in the city and hard- ly worth repairing. New buildings are recommended.

This she supported by giving out letters from the woman to her husband.

CTE LONGING TQ DEAD MAN TS. STRANGELY MISSING Money Had Been Paid to Thomas Smith Five Days Before He Died.

~ What became of $2230, said to have been paid to Thomas Smith five days before he died, is a mystery that two reity detectives are working on, and the grand jury is also investigating Mrs. Theodore Smith, wife of the elder Smith’s son, was seen at her home, 1290 Hodiamont avenue, Sat- urday morning and_ said that the night her father-in-law died, Oct, 25, the doctor called at their house and told them the old gentleman wanted come to his boarding house, 3941 Westminster place. “He had often called for us,” said Mrs. Smith, “for since his wife died, four years ,before; he seemed. listless and lacking in courage. “We did not think it was anything serious, and did not go when called at 2 o'clock in the morning, but my hus- band went as soon as the cars began running in the morning. When he reached the house he iound his father was dead. ‘“Hle searched the house that day to get possession of his father’s effects, and particularly to get $2230 which Ed- ward R. Eddins, a real estate man of 121 North Eighth street, said he had paid to my husband’s father in cash while he was lying in bed five days be- fore. ‘There was also a large quantity of valuable jewelry around: the house somewhere and the search, revealed nothing, not even a will. “My husband then went to the Pro- pate Court and had himself appointed administrator. later he made another search and found a will in a place he had prev iously searched ‘without finding anything. This will named the Missis- sippi Valley Trust Co, as administra- tor and my husband then left the matter to them and after the funeral went to New York on a business trip. “We cannot understand Mr. Smith’s accepting the $2230 because he did not like to handle cash at his home and did ali his business by check. After the date when this amount is said to have been paid f him he drew three checks in the five days before he died, rang- ing from $50 to $150. We cannot under- stand why he drew these checks -if he had that amount of money at hand. ‘The week after Mr. Smith died, Mrs. Forrest. with whom he boarded, closed her home and. moved away, into the county I think. She has presented a bill egainst the estate for $755 for nursing Mr. Smitn, although we never knew that he needed a nurse.” Edward R. Eddins of 121 North Eighth street says he had carried on bysiness for Smith for several years and that when he sold the flats at Minerva ave- nue and Shawmut place the price he sold them for: was so low that he did not charge any commission.

WOMAN DRESSED BY THE POLICE Police Captain Penetrates Dis- guise When She Asks Him to Cash Money Order: ————

Mrs. Julia M, Kittinger, who for nearly a year had masqueraded as a man, had so much faith in, her disguise that she walked into Central District Police Sta- tion Saturday and asked Capt. Schwartz to cash a money order. Schwartz was about to hand over the money when he looked more closely at his visitor. He noted her high-heeled shoes, her smooth skin and large brown eyes. “Stand over civse to the window where the light is better,’ he said. ‘You are a woman, aren't you?’ The visitor laughed musically. am,” she said. Has Brown Eyes. “My name Mrs. Kittinger-Mc- Henry, but -I use my first husband’s name, Kittinger, when I’m on the road.”’ Mrs. Kittinger told Schwartz that her home is in Anderson, Ind., and that she came to St. Louis Friday, engaging a room at 1414 Clarkwavenue. She has close-cropped brown hair, trous brown eyes and a smooth, olive complexion. She wore a blue serge suit, a black four-in-hand tle and black Fedora hat. Asked why she wore men’s clothing, she said: “Oh, I just wanted to find out whether it wag harder for a man to get along than for a woman. I believe it is. I have had some hard knock@ “There is one funny thing, though. I have never had any trpuble flirting with girls on the street. All I have to do is wink and they will turn right around and smile at me. Few men know how easy it is to flirt.”’ Mrs. Kittinger says her first husband, Everett Louis Kittinger, was killed in a railroad accident in Indiana a year ago. Rode on Freight .Trains.

John J., in Whose Behalf Attorney Worked Up Citizens’ Movement, May Resign as an Official on Tuesday When He Will Bs Sentenced.

|By Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Dee. 2.—District Attorney John D. Fred- ericks gave today a full account of the negotiations leading up to the pleas of guilty entered yesterday in the McNamara murder trial, He declared that in making the agreement whereby James B. McNamara pleaded guilty to murder and John J. McNamara pleaded guilty to dynamiting the Llewellyn Iron Works, counsel for the defense came to his terms and that outside influences did not prevail upon him, — Men of standing in the community, he said, had been ‘‘up ngainst him ’? with pleas that in the interests of peace and society James B. MeNamara be allowed to plead guilty and that the case against his brother, John J., be dropped. These pleas, he said, he still steadfastly rejected. “I told them I was not running so- ciety,” he said. “Some of the, men, after talking it over, expressed their Darrow Repeated Offer. Fredericks declared that since July he had had an offer: from the defense to let James B. McNamara plead guilty to saye John J. McNamara. “A month ago Darrow and I were talking in court half seriously about it. The Court stopped proceedings, so we quit,” he said. “That afternoon Darrow came to see me and made vir- tually the’ same offer and I refused to accept it.” 2 “Tf you ever change your mind, let me know,’ Darrow said as he lieft. “‘T never will,’ I replied. Then Dar- row an incoln Steffens got together and per to went downtown to get men to come to me to urge to agree to Dar- row's proposal. The matter was put to me, but I refused to consider it, and they did not urge me. Two. dgys later some of them gave me a typewritten statement and it was practically the same thing.”’ It was at this juncture District Attor- ney Fredericks says he told them he was not “running’ society.” “IT said I knew I had the goods,” he continued, ‘“* and I didn’t propose to He down. I asked two or three others, also of the same crowd, if they thought I'd made a mistake, and they told me they thought the case was perfectly safe in my hands. Meanwhile I had talks with Darrow and Davis and stood pat that) both men must plead guilty. The mat- ter of punishment did not interest me, but I knew, and counsel for the de- fense knew, that if J.

Thursday one of them called me up and said some of them might come to see me. “If you have any influence with them, tell them to run along and ‘tend to their own business,’ I said, and they didn’t come. Darrow and Davis came again and said they could not get the joint confession, I told them in that case I'd go ahead with the trial, and that I’d rather proceed with it, anyhow. “Finally they said they would take my terms, and both men pleaded guilty.

He said he had not determined whether tc recommend clemency for the McNa- maras, but declared that James B. Me- Namara would make a complete state- ment of the affair to the world.

BME B. WEBSTER T0 OPPOSE JONES FOR CIRCUIT ATTORNEY Anti-Howe-Kreismann Faction Will Strike at Weeping Boss’ Relative. AIM TO STORM CITADEL

New Candidate Has Been Active Advocate of Kiel Interests.

The fight for the circuit attorneyship of St, Louis for next year has already started, with Attorney George B. Ster as an active cantlidate against Cir- cuit Attorney Seebert G. Jones for the Republican nomination. Webster -will go into the fight with the backing of the Kiel and anti-administra- tion, faction of the Republican City Com- mittee. Jones will have the support of such members of the committee as can be controlled by Jeptha D. Howe and Mayor Kreismann. The fight upon Jones will be made principally upon the ground that he is a brother-in-law of Howe, who was for- merly the Republican ‘‘boss.”’ It is prob- able that a comprehensive fight will be made to break Howe's grip on the of- fices of the town. The effects of the Jong fight upon him are expected to de- velop within. the next week or two by the repeal of the Southern Illinois Trac- tion franchise, which, the anti-Howe leaders declare, was responsible largely for the defeat of the free bridge bond issue a few weeks ago. Howe was chairman of the Republican City. Committee when Jones was nomi- nated three years ago. Practically all the committeemen, at the special re- quest of Howe, worked for his nomina- tion. But after Howe retired as chair- man there was a division in the com- mittee. Some of the members remained Joyal to Henry W. Kiel, who succeeded Howe, while others worked with Howe, who conducted the fight for Mayor Kreismann upon Kiel to oust him as chairman. Webster has been one of the most active Republicans in St. Louis against the Howe domination of the Circuit At- torney’s and Mayor's offices. He has made many speeches in recent cam- paigns, sharply criticising Howe, and making him an issue in the election. The anti-Howe and anti-Kreismann members of the organization. have pledged him their support in his fight for the nomination, and his campaign is already under way. H. B.

MRS. EDWARD\ EB NORVAL.

Edward E. Narval, Who Used Money to Get Married, Suc- cumbs at Excelsior Springs.

After several narrow escapes from death while a soldier in the Philippines, Edward E.- Norval, winner of a $200 prize offered by the Post-Dispatch for the best story of heroism, dropped dead Friday in the Plaza Hotel, Excelsior Springs, Mo., where he was employed as chef. Out of hundreds of stories of heroism submitted to the Post-Dispatch, all: of which were verified and investigated, the story of how Ed Norval, wounded and left to die in. a Pompangoe jungle, crawled inch by inch for 20 feet and draggefi with him his wounded “bunkie,”’ shot through both legs and helpless, was easily the most thrilling narrative of heroic action. It was a short story, as told by Nor- val, the simple recital of being sentenced with three companions to die. were lined up and shot, Pederson, were not fatally wounded, but would have died“if they had re- mained in the hot sun where they fell. Hitched His Body Along. Twenty feet away was shade and Norval found he could hitch his body along an inch or so at a time. Then he thought of his ‘‘bunkie’’ and asked him if he could make it. “I can’t do a thing,’”’ said Pederson, “I’m shot through both legs and helpless.’’ Norval managed to turn Pederson over on his stomach. “Put«yvour arms around my neck, old boy,’”’ he said, “and when I move and inch or two you will move, too.” Occasionally Pederson fainted in the sun and from loss of blood, but Nor- val waited each time for him to re- cover and readjust his arms, and then the death-cheating, crawl was resumed. Lives of Both Saved, The lives of both were saved by reach- ing the shade and soon after a negro soldier, “‘the best looking man I ever saw,’’. says Norval,. found them and they were cared for.

Haling of Ecclesiastics to © Givil Tribunal When Church ss Might Decide. “WILL AVERT SCANDALS

‘Excommunication Latal Senten- ‘tial Incurred by Violation of New Dictum.

The Rev. D: S. Phelan, editor of the Western Watchman and pastor of ount Carmel Church, has received Rome a copy of a decree issued by Pope Pius X making excommuni- cation from the church the penalty for haling ecclesiastics into the crim- qmail or civil courts in cases where disputes or breaches of church law could as well be settled by church tribunals. “he decree in part says: “Now, in these evil days, when ec- _@lesiastical immunities receive ‘ gonsideration, and not only priests ‘and clerics, but even bishops and tardinals of the Holy Roman Church, are cited before lay tribunals, this condition of things absolutely de- mands of us to restrain by severe penalty, those who cannot be other- wise deterred from the commission of _ #0 heinous a crime against the re- Mgious character. “Therefore, by this Motu Proprio, We determine and ordain that what- ‘ever private person, lay or cleric, man or woman, shall without obtain- ' $ng the permission of ecclesiastical guthority, cite to a lay tribunal and 1 to appear there publicly, any ‘ecclesiastical person, either in a crim- ‘nal or civil case, will incur: excom- nunication latae sententiae ‘specially “eserved to. the Roman Pontiff. “This, by these letters, is decided, and we wish to stand ratified, every- thing to the contrary notwithstand- “Given at Rome at St. Peter's, the ‘ninth day of October, 1911, the ninth ‘Year of our Pontificate. Pather Phelan said Saturday that the Seoree is not to be construed as giving edlesiatics immunity from prosecution fader the laws of the State. “Tt means,” he said, “that Catholics wist respect the courts of the church, and take into those courts all disputes or differences which properly come the category of the ecclesiastic laws. In such cases the decision of the church courts must be considered final, and there m be no appeal to the secular courts. / There is nothing in the decree to prevent a Catholic) ‘rom prosecuting an ecclesiastic for an iffense which does not come under the hurch law. The decree was prompted yy the i5-year litigation between Fa- her Murphy and Bishop Bonacum of Webraska. Church courts three times yettled that dispute, but the litigants yersisted in taking the case into the 2ivil “courts.” EILERS APPROACH BILL } GOES OVER A WEEK

LONDON, "Det, 2.—‘If I am suddenly famous I am not a oit sure~I like -t,” said Felice Lyne, Oscar Hammerstein's new diva, to the Post-Dispatch corre- spondent today at the Kensington fiat where she lives under the vigilant eyes of her mother. Miss Lyne vies with Secretary Grey this morning as the most-talked-of per- son in London, since she sang her way into the hearts of music lovers last Saturday night as Giida in “Rigoletto.” The fresh impulsive charm and com- pelling grace that ring in her silvery voice radiate from her in private life. The mother constantly warns the dainty little Kansas City girl not to ex- cite herself; the daughter opvediently 1s- om then immediately bursts impetu- ously into the conversation and monopo- lizes it. Gets Many Missives. Mrs, Lyne was telling how her daugn- ter had been overwhe!med with letters, telegrams, suggestions, demands, .p- peals, when the singer interrupted: “One woman wrote that she had some rare old lace that would be just tne thing for my nightie as Gilda—as if Gilda would -have old lace on ner nightie! “Three hundred and eighteen auto- graph friends have written for my sig- naturegsome mailing their albums with- out sending stamps for their return. “There are lots of drawbacks about being a-prima donna,’’ Miss Lyne con- tinued more seriously. “I have had to learn 16 operas by heart and the acting, which is a separate matter for each 27f them. Only for the trouble our director, Signor Coini, took with me I don’t know what I should hav2 done as Gilda. I know I was very fidgety with my hands. Frightened at Success. “My success frightens me.

Mrs. Lyne broke in at this point to Say again to her daughter that she must not grow excited, Then she herself said: “Felice naturally misses the life that other girls have. She can drive anything within shafts, ride and play tennis finely, but now she only takes some physical exercise for the sake of her voice. I only wish that we could get oysters for her like we have in America, “We are Americans, although my husband’s people are English—from Cornwall, where the family had arms granted to it by the first Queen Mary.

Furopean debut in Hammerstein!s production of “Rigoletto” in London the evening of Nov. 25, is the daughter of Dr. Sanford T. Lyne of this city. She was ‘graduated from Central. High School here in 194. For three years she studied music, and in 1907 she and her mother went to Paris, where she began to study under Mme. Marchesi, D’Au- bigny and others. Through a mutual friend Miss Lyne |met Oscar Hammerstein itn 1910. She had already refused attractive offers to sing in grand opera in Berlin, and at first refused Hammerstein's offer of a contract, supposing that she would be presented in light opera under his management, Finally, upon his explanation of his plan to produce grand opera in London, a plan he had at that time not made known to enyone else, she signed! with him for five years. She first appeared in New York in October, 1910, where she sang the part of Lisbeth In “Hans, the Flute Player,” in which she scored an in- stantaneous success. During the sea- son she sang also in Philadelphia, dividing her time about equally be- tweeh that city and New York.

BABY FOR SALE BY WIDOW With OLDER GHILD 10 CARE FOK

Mrs. Frances Jesse Says She Can Rear One Boy if Someone Will Take Other.

Baby Frank Jesse, 2 months old, fs for sale at his hame, 1426 Papin street. His mother, Mrs. Frances Jesse, whose husband was shot to death five months ago, says he will be sold to anybody who will give’ him a good home and pay enough to relieve her and Frank’s 2- year-old brother from immediate want. The Jesse family was in comfortable circumstances until the father, Frank Jesse, was killed last spring. Then Mrs. Jesse was forced to begin drawing on the savings account her husband had started the day of their wedding. When little Frank was born the money went faster and the mother, burdened with the care of the baby, was unable to work. Eventually the neighbors had to help the stricken family. When the young mother’s last money wes spent Friday and no help seemed in_ sight, she decided that,she must part with one of hér children that the other might live. Phen, since Baby Frank was more of a care than the other, she decided to offer him forsale. Mrs. Jesse, who is 25 years old, says she will be able to get along with only the 2-year-old boy to care for. She says she can obtain board for him for $2 a week, and believes she would have no trouble in getting work. But with little Frank to care for she can not work, and so little Frank must go. His mother is heartbroken at the thought of selling him, but can see no oth¢r way to preserve his life and that of his brother.

REBELS OGGUPY NANKING WITHOUT FURTHER FIGHTING

]Take Peaceable Possession of City After a Parley With the Imperialists.

By Associated Press. NANKING China, Dec. 2.—The revo- lutionary forces took possession of the city today after a parley with the Im- perial Government forces who were in occupation. At midday the white flag was displayed on Lion Hill fort, inside the walls, to the northwest, indicating that the gunners had joined the revolution. Gen. Li Yuen Heng, the revolutionary leader, ‘who had captured Tiger Fort a few days ago, occupied Shai-Kwan, a town on the banks of the river outside the city of Nanking. Thereupon the war- ships under the command of Admiral Sah, which had hitherto lain two miles down the river, cautiously approached and took up a position under the guns of Lion Hill fort. Gen. Lin, second in command of the revolutionary forces, took the Taiping Gate and then arranged the terms of capitulation of the city. Later on the revolutionary troops en- tered and took possession of the tele- graph office. White flags began to ap- pear everywhere and no fighting oc- curred when the revolutionaries entered the streets. : sajeutenant-General Feng Kwe Chang is reported to have escaped. Other re- ports say he surrendered with all his troops on condition that their lives be spared. Owing to the great distances and the lack of communication details are very difficult to obtain, but there is reason to believe the revolutionaries will exer- cise moderation and there will be no killing. Reliable revolutionary yenorth say Pu- Know, across the river from Nanking, is surrounded by rebel troops. It is oc- cupied by 1500 Imperial soldiers.

Irresponsible Bands Are Pillaging the Country. AMOY, China, Dec. ?2.—Clan fighting continues in the northwestern quarter of the city. Shots occasionally strike the United States coast defense monitor Monterey. Several irresponsible bands of men representing themselves to be revolu- tionists are traversing the country and blackmailing the inhabitants of the vil- lages. A band of 30 ruffians, armed with nondescript weapons, have demanded enrollment at Amoy, but the revolution- ary leaders have refused to accept them and the men are now threatening trou- bie.

MURDERERS, NOT MARTYRS. volved in the McNamara case were it not for the folly of many of its leaders. It was a supreme act of madness when men like Gompers, Mitchell and a host of other recognized labor chiefs as- serted the innocence of the accused men, resented their arrest, denounced the officers of the law,” charged conspiracy against unionism and called upon workingmen as a unit to rally to a labor war against capital.” This is the reason that or- ganized labor is hard hit in the confession of the McNamaras that they were guilty of the atrocious crimes at Los Angeles. The Post-Dispatch fore- torial published on April 25, we said: Mr. Gompers and his associates have no words of denunciation for these infamous murders, but they are quick te protest against the arrest of men charged with im- plication in the crimes. No more disastrous coprse could be followed by responsible lead- ers of organized labor. Nothing will do more to allenate public sympathy with organized Jabor and set back the clock of industrial progress. In spite of many mistakes, unionism has accomplished a great work, which has hardly more than begun; but this work will never be completed if organized labor undertakes to sympathize with all the crimes that are com- mitted in its mame. The accused men at Los Angeles are entitled: to their constitutional guarantees of a speedy and impartial trial, but if they are guilty, they are not martyrs —they are murderers. The result of the folly of the heads of union tion to the defense of every union labor repre- sentative accused of crime or violence is found in the statements of the McNamaras. ‘Say to the papers,” said James B. McNamara, “that I am guilty, but that I did what I did for a principle.” John J. McNamara is quoted thus: “What I have done I have done in the belief that circumstances justified me in all my actions. * * * I have gone forward on principle. I have given my life to the work of building up unionism.” * * * This misguided sentiment, this monstrous error tnat unionism can be built up or its inter-~*~ pro- moted by crime and vioicnce must A destroyed if the organization is to survive. Union labor lead- ers must repudiate crime and violence. They must condemn the spirit which leads ignorant, zealous, unscrupulous labor members to commit crime and resort to violence as a service to the cause of labor. = There was a conspiracy to commit the crimes of which the McNamaras are guilty. What was its extent? Who participated in it? Every guilty man should be brought to justice. It is the duty of the leaders of organized labor to join with the authorities in exposing the whole criminal scheme and in bringing to the bar of justice every man in the conspiracy. This is the first step towards unionism’s redemption. Organized labor as a body would not be in- saw the consequences of this course. In an edi- | | He was brought to trial on Oct. 11.

While America wrestles with the problem of the chauffeur gone joy riding without his em- ployer’s permission to use the machine, Europe is said to be equally perturbed over the chauf- feur’s refusal to eat “around back.” The inn- keeper’s private table was always entirely satis- factory to the coachman, and usually kept that respectful individual expectant and happy for some "time before the inn came in sight. That it possesses no such attraction for the chauffeur, who must dine at the table @hote, is moving some of the continentals to question if the auto- mobile is, after all, adaptable to the exacting social strictures of Europe. This shows how little we really know Europe from the novels of A. N. and C. N. Williamson. We had supposed that the chauffed and the chauf- feur al] ate fried chicken out of the same basket, as we do in this democratic country. —_ The greatest day in the life of Editor Harrison Grey Otis of Los Angeles was Duc. 1, 1911. =. rr LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE PIE er Signals. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As a motorist who has given attention to the use of automobile signals, I call your attention to the fact that hasty and prohibitive legislation on automobile horns has seriously to do with the public safety. For some reason or another, prob- ably through heedlessness, the heavy automobile truck is equipped with a bulb horn, which is in reality nothing more than a bicycle “squawker.” It is so weak in tone that it cannot be heard at times above the rumble of the truck itself, and it certainly does not warn far enough ahead to en- able this ponderous machine’ to be stopped in time in case the pedestrian doés not hear the signal. As a result, i read constantly of auto- mobile truck accidents. The driver is held to blame. It is not his fault. His equipment is in- adequate, This machine should be equipped with a powerful signal, as every driver knows, So also should the lighter pleasure cars. The point of the matter is not the prohibition of these louder and adequate signals, but the suppression of their misuse in the hands ofa few joyriders and generally irresponsible drivéts. I trust that the City Council will go into this mat- ter thoroughly and sensibly and not take any hasty and ill-advised action. The only way to solve the problem is to make every automobile carry an adequate warning signal and make the

The troubles of a millionaire club- man who wishes to hunt on the pre- serves of his club in Arkansas are many and varied as Adolph Winkel- meyer and other St. «Loulisans have found. Winkelmeyer will soon g0 into Mississippi County, Arkansas, where a litigation is pending to test the rights of clubmen from outside that State. Winkelemeyer is president of the Union Biscuit Co., president of the Gilead Hunting and Fishing Club of Illinois, treasurer of the Diamond Hunting and Fishing Club of IIlli- nois and member of Big Lake Shooting Club of Arkansas, The na- tives are jealous of any hunter, al- though he may be a true sportsman, from another state and according to Winkelemeyer, appear to be particu- larly hostile to St. Louisans. Inhospitably Received, For more than 10 years Winkelmeyer: and other St. Louisans, notably : Walter Hecker and Dr. Jules Baron, have Leen | making yearly trips into the hunting } territory of Northern Arkansas and } sharing the hospitality of their -camps, for the inner man, with natives of, that they been most inhospitably received.

This is in the “sunken lands’’ which formed the bed of the Mississippi River until the earthquake of 1811 changed the chan- nel of that stream some 60 miles east- ward. For making a levee the Federal Government gave the land to the Chi- cago Mill and Lumber Co., from which the Big Lake Club acquired title. Squatters on Land. Most of this land has been covered by squatters, who grew small crops of corn and cotton in season, but make most of their living trapping and hunt- ing for’ the markets. Many of these squatters were enjoined from market hunting by the Federal courts, but vio- lated the injunction. As such violations are felonious, almost any hunter from abroad is likely to be mistaken for a Federal officer, held up at the point of a rifle and forced to leave by a suspic- lous squatter. The Arkansas laws against hunting by nonresidents is very strict. Members of the club contend they ‘are residents, but the justices have held they are not, and that is where the trouble between the St. Loulsans and the Arkansans he- gan. Shot at in Missouri. As early as 189 wheh Winkelemeyer and others were hunting along the south- ern boundary line of Missouri there they were shot at and several times their tents were riddied with bullets. Until 1900 the St. Loulsans were friendly with some of the market hunters and even contrib- uted liberally to their battles against the injunctions, But when Herman C. Stitel,® Dr. Baron and Winkelemeyer joined the club in 1900, paying $1000 each for membership tickets and $250 annual dues, they were immediately threatened with all sorts of consequences in let- ters. Gov. Folk of Missouri took the matter up and told them they had a right to hunt on the club grounds, but from that time they were marked men. Winkelmeyer sought to compromise with the market hunters, offering to share his club privileges with # of them, but he was told unless he shared them with 200 he could make no agree- He refused. From that time on all diplomatic relations have been sev- ered. Venison Disappears. In 1908 a constable visited a camp in which Winkelemeyer and nine others had just strung up several deer.

Winkele- meyer, however, was fined $45. Guests at Club Fined. The following year a party, composed of Winkelemeyer, Peter Schwarz, Rob- ert Vogel, Rice Emerson, Frank War- ner, Dr. Baron and others went fishing on Big Lake. They were arrested. Three men, who were guests of the club, were fined, but the other cases were dismissed. The next year .Winkelemeyer, Baron and Hecker were invited by William J. Driver to hunt on his farm in Osceola County, Ark. It was the same old story. They were arrested and had two trials in one day, both trials resulting in hung juries. To save time, one of the men agreed to plead guilty, take a fine of $60 and appeal to the Circuit | Court. On the appeal six witnesses for the St: Loufsans testified the men were hunting in Osceola County. One testified they were hunting in’ Mississippi. The jury believed the one and ‘the $50 fine was allowed to stand. ; Verdxct in Rhyme.’ ns one of*the mistrials in the Justice’s court, Hecker afterwards fotind : the ‘jury’s verdict, which Was in rhyme, and said: ‘*‘We, the jurors, can’t agree, Hung jurors three and three.”’ Last year Hecker, Baron and Winkele- meyer were hunting on the Big Lake preserve. They were arrested by a con- stable on a charge of being non-resi- dents. They were walked three miles to the lake, crossed the lake three miles in an open boat and were taken to Ma- nila, Ark., three miles further, in an open wagon, at night. It was below freezing and they whipped the horses up, So the wagon would jolt enough to keep their blood circulating: and keep them warm. “It was 11:30 o’clock when we got to Manila that night,’’ Winkelmeyer said to a Post-Dispatch reporter, recount- ing the incident, ‘‘and we’ were nearly frozen.

Cases Nolle Prosequied. “The cases against the rest of us were nollied later, but Hecker took a fine by agreement. This was for the purpose of appeal and is the last case against us,”” While other members of the club have been arrested, the St. Louisans seem to | suffer most, probably because they get far away from the Big Lake Club house, ‘while Easterners usually hunt close to it. Both Winkelmeyer and Hecker say the natives are determined to pre- vent the St. Louisans from hunting there. They, with equal obstinacy, are determined to hunt there. The members of the club say ther have been generous to the natives. They subscribed liberally towards building a church there and gave $300 for an organ. At their camps they have entertained royally, but this seems to make little difference. Illinois Man 98 Years Old.

My back hurt so bad I could hardly be up, and I suffered with pains in my left side, most of the time. Nothing did me any good until I tried Cardui, the woman's tonic. I am certainly well pleased with what it has done for me. I have taken three bottles, and It has done me worlds of good. Cardui hag strengthened me, and made me feel better in every way. I can do my vir with perfect ease. I sincérely believe if other suffer ing women will only give Cardui a trial, it will help them as it helped me, for I know by experience that it is the best remedy for sick and run- down women.”—Escondida, Ky. There is a reason why Cardui has been so uniformly successful, during the past fifty years, in relieving all forms of womanly ailments and dis- It acts with Nature—not against her.

LOUIS Delegations From Both States Strongly Favor Sending Conventions Here. ON WAY TO WASHINGTON Party Is Entertained Here by the Business Men’s League. Louisiana and Texas are in favor of sending the Republican and Democratic national conventions to St. Louis, ac- cording to members of the Interstate Inland Waterway League, who are be- ing entertained in St. Louis Saturday by the Business Men’s League. The Southerners are on their way to Washington to attend the National Rivers and Harbors Congress, and to demand that the Goverament appro- priate $10,000,000 to complete an inter- costal canal from the Mississippi River to the Rio Grande River, thereby virtu- ally extending the Mississippi River acress the entire west Louisiana and Texas coasts. Cc. 8. E. Holland of Port O’Connor, Tex., president of the league, and Leon Locke, secretary, said that Louisiana and Texas were both strongly in favor of St. Louis for the two big conven- tions. They said all the members of the delegation would like te see St. Louls get both conventions. St. Louis business men who partict- pated in the entertainment of the visit- ors, urged them to use their influence on their national committeemen to in- duce them to vote for St. Louis. fhe visitors were met at Union Station »y Secretary Saunders of the Business Men’s League and James E. Smith and escorted to the Mercantile Club for breakfast. J. A. Lewis and Tom Ran. dolph of the National Bank of Com- merce were also at breakfast with the: visitars. The canal project was explained in speeches by several members of the delegation. The Government has al- ready appropriated $1,021,000 for the canal, and it has been constructed or is under construction from the Mis- sissippi River to the Sabine, and from Galveston Bay to Corpus Christi. The League furnishes the site of the canal, and the Government does the work of excavating and maintenance. When the canal is completed light draft boats from St. Louis can go down the river to New Orleans, and be diverted into the canal for a journey of 70 miles along the Texas coast. The members of the delegation, other than the president, are: Leon Locke, secretary, of Lake Charles, La.; Roy Miller, assistant secretary, of Corpus Christi, Tex.; Calvin Wurzlow, Mayor of Houma, La.; Vincent Bluntzen, Corpus Christi, Tex.; W.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2.—Bridge whist was ®8/ played by 300 society women for the benefit of a girl of the slums, the iden- tity of whom none of them knew. The girl’s reclamation has been already be- gun by the Paulist Fathers. The money raised, about $300, will be turned inio the fund to complete the reformation. The girl, who is now 19 years old, is said to have fallen in love two years two while attending a convent. She ran away from school and was marricd. Her father, said to be prominent, and a contractor, disowned her. She was deserted six months after her marriage and her father refused to take her back. After efforts, in other directions, she gradually drifted into the underworld. She became a victim of drugs and later told her story to Father Ferry. He had her placed in a sanitarium where’ ashe has been cured of the drug habit. Now remains the work of getting her back into the paths she left two years ago. Holdup in Freight Depot.

Ratican’s prowess in athletics is not confined to college football. While a student at Christian Brothers College, Harry developed into the greatest ama- teur soccer player of St. Louis. He still holds this undisputed title. On the track he’s a 10-second man for the cen- tury dash. He's a hurdler of note, like- wise a pole vaulter and broad jumper. Harry holds the Western A. A.

The St. Louisans, who made them- selves heard on their arrival through the efforts of Dennis Sweeney's “Lee- tle German Pand,” believe they have a better chance for some of the prize money than some of the teams that will follow them on the runs.

President Neill of the Blue Grass League was .the originator of the plan "and saw to it that it was put through at the San Antonio meeting. Neill, accord- ing to Stis, tired of having the bigger leagues pick up umpires that he devel- oped. He had three or four seized last | season and decided that he wanted some come-back if the bigger leagues con- tinued to take away his callers of balls ‘and strikes. The plan is expected to meet the ap- proval of the major and minor mag- nates alike. It will not only:-serve as a food system to hire and fire umpires, but it will be an incentive to the men in blue to do their best work in the hope of being graduated.

Perhaps that eight yards reduction isn’t as great as will be found needed within 15 yards of the goal line; but every suggestion is pertinent.

Football Authorities Have Taken the Plan Under Advisement. " Should Johnny Bender be retained football chair at St. Louis U. next sea- son, he probably will have the assistance of Earl Painter, captain of this year’s team, as second team-coach. The athletic au- thorities of the university now have the matter under advisement. Several reasons may be advanced for re- taining an assistant coach. The first is that an assistant coach can relieve the head coach of the worries of getting together a ecrub team to scrimmage with the varsity, The second is that should the head coach sever his connection with the school a com- petent man i# availiable. Schools all over the country are fast adopting the graduate coach system. St. Louis U. has not reached the stage where it can depend on the graduate coach for ,the varsity eleven but in Ear! Painter, the biue and white authorities surely have a man capable of handling the second team. The last important feature of the local football season is set for Tuesday evening. The Billiken Band of Bender will be ban- queted at the Planters’ Hotel on that be and such business as the awarding of ‘Yet- ters"’ and the election of captain will be cleared up.

thing which that tale of woman’s der” “A WOMAN ALONE. 4g AVE you ever eit upon fhe life Of some poor girl who simply pants To be somebody's loving wife, And somehow never gets the chance? Weill, here it is, writ day by day, And showing what a circumspect Young woman fate has stowed away Can learn and suffer by neglect. It. Deponent saith that she was born And orphaned in a country town, And never youth was so forlorn As that which held her spirits down, She simply fluttered like a bird Against the screening of her cage, And one fine day, without a word, She took the early morning stage. III. New York was even then, as now, A densely populated place, And did not even think to bow Its greeting to this newest face. Tt let her shift as best she could, Nor even asked for her’ address, And poor deponent thought she would Die pretty quick with loneliness. IV. The seven years of famine sent Upon the land of Pharaoh Were nothing to the discontent Of seven years without a beau. Her fellow boarders, in the main, . Were kind, and some were hard to beat, - But she never met that fitting swain A woman has the right to meet. | v. The reason why was simply this:. The city isn’t @ny place For lonely women seeking bliss, And boarding, like deponent’s case, 'The city doesn’t care a bit Who languishes within her room, And the certain consequence of it Is bitter loneliness and gloom. IV. The chance to meet a nice, sweet man Is such as no one ought to take, And almost any patent plan To make it better is a fake, For instance, on a day despised In memory, our diarist In desperation advertised, And duly caught a bigamist. VIL The moral is: Stay on the farm, And there, fast-anchored to the sofl, Find sweet contentment in the warm, Great heart of some good man of toil. The city is not what it seems, And in its gates are many sad, Lone women waking from such dreams About it as deponent had. “A Woman Alone,” anonymously writ- ten. (Appleton.) ~

a cynical custom of sending hts vic- tims gorgeous banches of Indian lilies on the morning of their regret, syin- bolically protesting against tears and expressing his continued high admira- tion. So absorbed is ho in the sending of fresh bunches o? Indian lilies that the one woman of the mess who really awakened something like love grows der sad circumstances. A tragedy of promiscuity which awakens small sym- pathy among the attendants on the clinic. “The Purpose,” which is the firmest construction among the added short stories, probably comes from an earlier Sudermann epoch and reveals very strongly the grim inflience of that Rus- Sian group which reacted on French and German fiction a quarter of a cen- tury ago. (Kennerly.) A line Crawford, has added a de- lightful book to the crowded li- brary of Goethe literature. From the numerous biographies and some private papers, she gathered material for a de- fense of Goethe from the charge of lightness in love. Sometimes she has to abandon her thesis for the history is overpoweringly against it; but in the end of “Goethe and His Woman Friends’’ you will grant the genius as clean a bill of health as a genius should expect. He had many delightful friend- ships, Miss Crawford would have you believe, but generally behaved like a perfect gentleman. Of course, there was the great affair with the Baroness von Stefh, about which one may spee- ulate more than is good for one. And there was the ardent Angelica Kauff- mann—but save in the matter of Chris- tine, whom belated marriage justified, there is no direct evidence. Delightful- est of all the gossip in the book is that which throws light on that won- derful woman who was Goethe’s moth- ¢ .

She was the moth- er of a genius before she had time to learn much from books, but she lived fully and, humorously “regretting” with her last breath that she could not at- tend a lady's party, she died. (Little- Brown). H kindly old gentleman with a gift for oddly telling odd tales, one hesitates to write of “A Likely Story” lest the author, William de Morgan, might see what one has written and so find a text for another assault upon unappreciative reviewers. Having brought “It Never Can Happen Again’”’ to its long ending, Mr. de Morgan sought relief from his own style of novel in a thing which has been, not altogether unjustly, classed as a ro- mance of the Eighteenth Century. His public did not like this ‘“‘Affair of Dis- honor,’’ but it seems that to Mr. de Morgan the crippled, dumb and blind offspring was the dearest of his brood. So in an afterword attached to “A Like- ly Story” he has at us—American re- viewers especially—and most delightfully rends us. A LIKELY STORY! AVING been button-holed by a earlier manner of the author and is rich with his happy whimsicality. Nor is it, in spite of the author’s 72 years as gar- rulous as work from his pen published when. he was a youth Of 68 or there- abouts. The story centers on a picture that talks. If you are not prepared to grant the author “the right to an as- sumption intrinsically improbable,” do not read this novel.’ It may help you if we say that the picture is the portrait of a woman—of an Italian woman who lived in the Fifteenth Century, which Was surely the age of loquacity. Even a photograph of the portrait of the Ital- ian Woman talks. And to such good pur- pose that you are told in the space of one comfortable long-short novel a story of Fifteenth Century love, a story of late Nineteenth Century middle-class matrimonial infelicity artd the pretty tale of a high-born lass and her soldier lover which might belong to any century but is dated 1898. (Hoit.) IN FLEMING LAND. Sie: OLD FLEMISH TOWNS” is not only written by, but pic- tured by, George Wharton Ed- wards. The traveler visiting Antwerp and Brussels (which have become so modernized with Paris architecture as to lose all Flemish character), feels that he has seen Belgium and passes on. Mr, Edwards lived in Bruges during els through that country lying between the French and Dutch frontier, he mixed with all classes of society that he might know the Flemings thoroughly. He con- fesses that whenever he found a com- fortable inn he was decidedly avense to moving on, so his progress’ was teib- urely and his work thorough. The pictures are no less attractive than the reading matter. It is fully illustrated not only with towers, bridges and cathedrals, but the people of the*country in their native dress. (Moffat-Yard.) si LET’S GO TO ITALY. DWARD HUTTON in “Ventoe and Venetia” conducts the reader through a personal tour in pen | pictures of St. Mark’s Cathedral, The Doge’s Palace, the Piazza de San Marco, representing the Gothic period, the By- zantine period and the Renaissance. A glimpse is given into the city’s art gal- leries, with a study -of their world- famed pictures, visits are made to the tombs of the poets Petrarch and Shel- ley, to Padua and Verona, where lived the Montagues of Shakspeare’s ‘“‘Romeo and Juliet,’”’ and many places of inter- est to students of Venetian art and his- tory. Illustrated in colors by Maxwell Armfield. (Macmillan.). A going to Burton Holmes lectures, for this year’s book of travels in holiday attire are so plentifully illus- trated and so carefully written that they leave nothing but the trip itself to be desired. “The Spell of Holland,” the story of a pilgrimage to the land of dykes and windmills, by Burton EB. Stevenson, is an easy reading of the jaunt of the author, accompanied by Betty, whom he dedic&tes his book and ca er the best of comrades. Mr. Stevenson started out with the determination to keep clear of the usual tourist route—to forego all places pat- ronized ‘by English and Americans and to become acquainted with the Dutch at home. To see how he kept to that resolution you must read his book. He certainly had plenty of oppor- tunity to test the kindness. and hos- pitality of the people and found it in THE SPELL OF HOLLAND. .

“INDEPENDENCE OF CHILE.” ERNARDO O’HIGGINS, national B hero of the Chileans, is also the hero of this historical work by A. Stuart M. Chisholm.

URNING .a novel into a play has T been successfully accomplished ina few instances. Turning a play into a novel is a task beyond genius. The accepted standards of life expres- sion which obtain on the stage are out of harmony with the naturalistic stand- ards of the novel. Hence, one must ap- proach “Pomander Walk, ’" which is a novel made out of the play bearing the same name, with a willingness to, accept it not as a true novel, but as a print- ing of the play with stage directions and business written into the text. Louis N. Parker wrote the play, and also the¢ story, which is the subject of the pres- ent review. In so far as he has illumi- mated the speeches with explanatory description he has done well; his task was to make the play easy reading for persons who are not accustomed to the tricks of play construction. (Lane.) “A Guide NnISRAELI. EPORTS from the East say that George Arliss is wonderfully suit- ed to “Disraeli,” by Louis N. Parker... If this be true—and reading the play one is not led to think the re- ports unreliable—Mr. Arliss has again shown the broad range of his art. From the dope fiend thief in “‘Leah Kleschna,”’ to Molnar’s ‘‘Devil,” and again to Locke’s “Septimus,’’ were big steps. ‘“Disraell’’ is not like any of these un- less you whimsically imagine ‘‘Sépti- mus” with the. “Devil,” mocking and manipulating, added. Mr. Parker’s play shows the great Jew who was premier of England as a statesman of melo- dramatic tendencies, as a devoted lover to his amiable old wife and as a pro- motor of success in love for a pair who attracted his sympathy. The action is meager as the story; without Arliss one wonders if the play could hold the boards a night. “(Lane.) A» George Middléton is published under the title of the first, ‘‘Em- bers.”” When theater managers realize “what is the matter with the business’ they will put on one-act flays and thus kill a tradition which has almost barred them from the Americafi stage. Three, four and five act plays, occupying 1 hour and 40 minutes to 2 hours and 20 min- utes, require large capita) of money and brains and demand of the auditor a!! the time between dinner and midnight. ‘ oe ONE ACT PLAYS. COLLECTION of six one-act plays fort. Hence the moving picture call to even the almost cultured to make up the theater-going public. In the good day of reform some of Mr. Middleton’s one-act plays will be presented. will be rejected firmly and finally by all, without prejudice, however, to the playability of ‘In His House” and ‘‘The Ibsenesqueness of “The Man Master- ful.”” The latter is probably the most effective reading play in the present series.—(Holt.) F per’s Bazaar and writes occa- sional short stories of distinct originality. She has written a comedy, “The Lady From Oklahoma,” which had at least the sadly satisfying copy- right production at Atlantic City: The theme is novel. A senator’s wife re- alizes that she is uncultured and dowdy A REFINING COMEDY. LIZABETH JORDAN edits Har- when her too suddenly elevated hus- band is caught in the coils of a lady lobbyist. Mrs. Senator is not a wilting flower or a clinging vine. She loves her husband and refuses to lose him. To regain her captive she hurries to New York and places herself under ex- perts, recommended to her by Miss Herrick, editor of the “The Woman's Friend,” to be made stylish, beautiful and cultured. There is an actin a New York beauty parlor that ought to be @ scream on the stage. The plot, of course, involves the discomfiture of the lady lobbyist and the recapture of the senator from Oklahoma by his law- ful wife.—(Harper’s.) THE MAN WHO DIDN'T, F you know Leonard Merrick you will be sure when shown a book by him) bearing the title: “The Man Who Understood Women,” that the her > of the tale knew ‘absolutely nothing about women. That's the true Leonard Merrick touch in the initial story of this short story collection—a poor sort of a story for the author of “Conrad In Quest of His Youth.’’ Fortunately there is a group of taies, in the collection, concerning one Tricortin and certain other really, truly, sure-enough Bohe- mians of :the Latin Quarter. These happy wells of peverty and enthusiasm, whose hard fare and childishly tender Wearts win easy tears, are rich crea- tions. They carry off this book which does not deign to admit their existence in its title with an air. of splendidly squalid romance. (Kennerly.) OUR FIRST CITIZENS. ‘ HE ROMANTIC STORY OF THE T MAYFLOWER PILGRIMS,” by Albert Christopher Addison, is a thrilling narrative of the Pilgrim Fa- thers, beginning with the time when hunted and persecuted on every side, they were obliged to leave their homes and were led out of Nottinghamshire into Holland by the devout John Robinson and it was this same John Robinson who inspfred these Pilgrims with the vision of complete freedom in a new country across the. Atlantic. ; The story traces the individual lives and fortunes of those who came over in the Mayflower.gnd landed at the spot called New Plymouth, after a perilous journey, and aims to be an entirely trustworthy history concering the tale that is of such abiding interest to every Anglo-Saxon. (Page.) A BOOK OF STARS, US TAR LORE OF ALL AGES,” is a collection of myths, leg- ends and facts concerning the constellations of the Northern Hemis- phere by William Tyler Olcott. In com- piling the volume the author has en- deavored to find and rearrange in con- venient form all matter pertinent to the history of the constellations, known to many by sight and name. Many of the probable readers of these tales will have been prepared for them by Mr. Olcott’s previous work, “A Field Book of the Stars.’’—(Putnam’s.) A NEW RILEY POEM.

The narrator is a boy who gives the story of his fa- ther’s and mother’s elopement in a boy- ish dialect just as he got it from his uncle. The poem is embellished by near- ly 50 striking full-paged ilhustrations by Howard Chandler ‘Christy, who has caught the spirit of the verses and ma- terlalized it in his drawings, (Bobbs- Merrill.) OLD MAN GREENHUT. LD Man Greenhut, Mississippi C) River saloon man and philoso- pher on the subject of philosa- poker, has been done into book form, “Old Man Greenhut and His Friends,’’ by David A. Curtis. The volume is a collection of short stories which have previously been published but amenz them the reader will find: many old friends. (Dwffield.) A BOOK OF LOVE. N the assumption that all the € world is interested in love and lovers, Jennie Day Hatnes has called selections pertaining only to that subject from old books, stray magazines and well-known poets and set them forth in a volume called ‘‘The Book of Love.’’ Hearts and Cupids are the prop- er marginal decoration of each page of the book. (Jacobs.) . RUSHING LOVE. y N ACCIDENTAL MOON,” by David Pottér, is a rather improbable story of Tom Fessenden, who on his way to a house- party in some enchanted spot in’ Mary- land has the chance to rescue a fair, a very fair damsel in distress. With a good deal of encouragement on the part of the girl, who dees not suffer frorm shyness, young Fessenden, under vari- ous excuses, slips away from his house- party to meet the young charmer whom he supposes to be a simple country gir), and in an incredible short space ef time his heart Is all her.own. Then they are carried out to sea in a drifting yacht, are rescued and Fessenden, who is not unknown to fame, marries the country girl, who all the time has been masqueradi and is really quite a per- sonage. (L ppincott.) “THE MATING OF ANTHEA.” Q« HE MATING OF ANTHEA,” by At Arabella Kenealy, is so original that its first page isn’t at all interesting except to readers unafraid of half-medical dissertations on mind and matter. Anyone who wishes may HONEY- | skip to the short last chapter and there read a great deal in a few words, but such a ‘‘skipper’’ will miss so much that isn’t ordinary both in the way of plot, character drawing, philosophy and med- ical views, that there really should be a warning in every copy issued. No one need believe the teachings of either the writer or her characters, but there is a healthiness about the book that makes one want to be well physically before one has read two chapters, and the de- sire increases the more one hears about *‘Anthea,” the young woman brought up on a system so natural that it pre- cluded even learning the alphabet. There are three awful descriptions in the book, two likely to cause nightmares for the imaginative, one having to do with a suicide so planned that one whom he desires to be revenged upon is forced to witness the t@king of life, the other an account of. an African wilderness where a human life is sacrificed for the sake ‘of science. The third tells of a most beautiful ‘“‘white garden’’. where a, man of the world goes in lieu of church. Every flower, from snowdrops to Ma- donna lilies, is pure white. When the maak team of the story learns that her rule of this man is over she goes to the garden when he is away and rides her horse over and’ over the beds until the flowers are ruined. The exquisite word picture of the death of the flowers is worth reading the book to peruse. (Lane.) LONDON’S GREAT LIBRARY. é¢ HE BRITISH MUSEUM; ITS T HISTORY AND TREAS- URES,” by Henry C. Shelley, is an attempt to combine in a single vol- ume an ordinary. history of the won- derful museum and a conspectus of its contents, with an aim either to prepare the reader for a visit to the museum or for an arm chair understanding of the’ things contained therein. The book is adequately illustrated, many of the pictures being taken from the official guides, and are in them- selves a liberal efucation. (Page.) A COOKING CALENDAR.
