Jones, 4452 Laclede in her Mrs. grate daughter, avenue. Twice in two days her granddaughter, Miss Lillian Jones, 16 years old, saved her from immediate death by fire, each time at the risk of her own life. In the second rescue the girl’s hands were Sse- verely scorched, her grandmother was burned nearly all over the body, and her white hair singed off. In each instance the aged woman im- periled herself because she was deter- mined to have a fire that she could see. Thursday afternoon she stuffed papers under the grating of the register and touched a match to them. Her grand- daughter smelled smoke in the hall and opened the door. Mrs. Forrester was unconscious. A lace curtain and a basket of clothing were in flames. The girl dragged her grandmother to a window and held her head out until the fresh air revived her. ; Thursday night Mr. Jones repaired an old grate in the room and built a fire. Mrs.*Forrester enjoyed it thoroughly, saying it reminded her of the early days when there were no furnaces. After spending Friday morning in Mrs. Forrester’s room before the grate fire Mrs. Jones and her daughter went downstairs to prepare lunch. Shortly after noon Lillian heard her grand- mother scream. She rushed up into the room and found Mrs. Forrester sit- ting before the grate, her clothing aflame, probably from flying sparks. The girl removed her own skirt and wrapped it around her grandmother's flames. Then she dragged Mrs. For- rester to the side of the bed and smoth- ered the flames with the quilts.

BOTH MEN INJURED

Lad Uses Bricks, Woman Relies on Teeth, Fists and Feet— Police Called For.

Mrs. Agnes Donovan of 1512 Cass ave- nue and her 10-year-old son produced 30 minutes of excitement for Deputy Sher- iffs Moore and Hochturn Saturday. The deputies went to Mrs. Donovan’s home Before they got her to numerous to arrest her. jail they had each received plows, bites and bruises and had to turn in a call for help and a patrol wagon. An information charging Mrs. Dono- van with concealing mortgaged prop- erty was issued Saturday on the com- plaint of Henry Detmer of Eleventh and Olive streets. Detmer alleged that the woman failed to pay for a piano she bought on the installment plan and also. failed to return the instrument. When the deputies reached the Dono- van home Moore went to the front door and Hochturn went to the rear porch. Moore knocked on the front door, and, | looking through the glass panel, saw a hand turn the key and disappear. He ran to the rear and joined Hoch- turn. Bites, Blows and Kicks. | The woman ran out of the rear door and was stopped by the deputies. She denied that she was Mrs. Donovan and said that Mrs. Donovan lived upstairs. Moore started upstairs to investigate and noticed that the woman walked hurriedly away in the alley. He told Hochturn to follow her. Hochturn caught the woman just be- fore she reached Fifteenth street. <A blow in the jaw from the fist of the woman staggered the detective. This advantage was followed up by a few kicks on the shins. The woman then bit Hochturn on the right hand with which he was holding her. : In the meantime Moore had found that nobody lived upstairs and followed Hochturn. He was followed by Em- mett Lawless, 10-year-old son of the | woman. . ‘‘Son, don’t let those men arrest me,”’ commanded the woman to the boy. “Throw those bricks at them.’’ The boy followed instructions. <A good-sized brick pile nearby soon began to disappear at the rate of several bricks a second, and all of them were shied in the direction of the deputies. , The bricks knocked off the hats of the’ detectives and struck them in various places as they dodged. While the son lj bombarded the officers the woman added her bit to the activity by biting Moore’ s | hand. Both rie Held. | Moore released his hold on the woman and grabbed the boy, while Hochturn held the mother. Moore took the strug- | gling youngster to a patrol box and | called the patrol wagon.

The boy is héid at the House of Deten-! tion, and Mrs. Donovan was locked up. | Moore received a scalp wound, a bit-: ten hand and several bruises in the, Hochturn was bitten in the left hand and has many bruises, espe- cially about his shins and ankles.

Mrs. Louise G. Simon of Glendale, St. Louis County, admitted on the witness Stand in Judge John W. McElhinney’s court at Clayton Saturday that she struck her husband on the head with a water bottle, inflicting injuries which kept him in St. Luke’s Hospital nine days. Mrs. Simon appeared as plaintiff in a suit for custody of her child, Mark Simon Jr., 4 years old, pending the outcome of her husband’s suit for divorce, which probably will be heard about the middle of February. The divorce petition, alleging indignities, was filed Dec. 8, Simon is living with his father, ‘Israel M. Simon, a well-known brok- er, at 4116 West Pine boulevard. His still occupies. the handsome home in Glendale. Downtown When Boy Vanished. Mrs. Simon testified that Dec. 4 she and her husband came downtown to din- ner, leaving the child in the care of a Gebhart at 1760 Aubert avenue, ‘unable to learn the whereabouts of Mark Jr., except that her husband’s mother had told her by telephone that the boy was receiving good care. Ex-Judge Moses Sale, who is counsel for Simon, told the Court that Mr. and Mrs. Simon pr. were taking care of the child at their home. Mrs. Simon told the Court in reply to an inquiry that either Mrs. Baker, daughter of Samuel Lazarus of 4481 Pine street, or the wife of Vice-President Farrell of the Cotton Belt railroad, would help her take care of the child if necessary. “Did you ever shoot at your husband, Mrs. Simon?’ asked Sale. “YT don’t remember,’’ replied the wit- ness, after ‘some hesitation. Denies Shoeoting at Husband. “Ts it not true that you fired two shots at Mr. Simon, one of which passed the baby on one side and the other on _ the other side, the bullets burying them- selves in a bedstead, so.that you called the negro butler to dig them out?’’ Mrs. Simon said she didn’t remember, but later said she didn’t shoot at her husband. “What is your favorite drink?” the lawyer. “I’m not especially crazy about any drink,’’ Mrs. Simon replied. ‘Didn’t your negro servants serve you highbalis in bed?’’ Mrs. Simon denied this. asked When asked ‘if she had ever threatened to kill her child she said she had not. Can Borrow From Friends, “What means of support have you when the supplies now in the Glendale house run out?’ “Tl can borrow any amount I need from my friends,’’ she answered, ‘“‘but I have not borrowed any yet.” Judge Sale asked Mrs. Simon if she did not visit Kammerer’s road house on Gravois road oftener than she visited her husband while he was in the hos- pital. She said it was lonesome at homé and she sometimes went to the road- house, “Did vou not order a negro there to bring you a drink? I don’t mean beer or soda water either,’’ said Judge Sale. “TI don’t remember,’ answered Mrs. Simon. | The witness said she never gave sifnon a black eye, but qualified her statement later to say that if she did it was in self-defense. She also denied having struck him with a flower vase arm an electric lamp. Married Life Not Happy. “Wasn't your married life constant mutual warfare?’ asked the lawyer. “Well, we haven’t been happy.” Mrs. Simon declared her husband drank heavily and worked only two or three days a week and that every night he came home with a bottle of liquor which he would put to his mouth and drain at one drink. She stated that Simon told her that after the marriage of his sister, Nov. 2, he would “run her out so fast she could not see straight.’’ After a conference between attorneys and Court it was decided that Mrs. Simon should have the custody of the boy until noon Friday, Dec. 22, aft which date the boy should remain wit the elder Simon until the divorce suit is decided. 3 HOURS WED; QUITS HUSBAND AND SUES HIM Charlotte Koebbe filed suit Friday ,for divorce from Bernard Koébbe, a clerk to whom she was married Nov. 1.

When Murray Morley, a mining stock broker of New York, was arraigned in the Dayton Street Police Court Saturday on a charge of disturbing the peace of Mrs. Bessie Quigley of 3816 Delmar boulevard, he told Judge Sanders that he had spent $20,000 on Miss Edna Hayes, daughter of Mrs. Quigley, within the last three years. Morley went to Mrs. Quigley’s home the night of Dec. 5 to see Miss Hayes. Mrs. Quigley would not let him in. He broken the glass in the door and forced his way in. Thomas Farnshaw, a brother-in-law of Mrs. Quigley, hit him with a potato masher.

Diplomatic Relations May End If Sulzer Abrogation Resolution Is Put Through.

MINISTER DELIVERS THE MESSAGE AT WHITE HOUSE

E‘forts Will Ee Made to Have Demand in Be- half of Jews Modified But Suizer Will Oppose Plan

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.—What in diplomatic language is interpreted here as practically a threat by Russia to sever all friendly relations with the United States in the event that Con- gress goes ahead with its plan to abrogate the treaty of 1832 with that country has been made to President Taft and Secretary of State Knox by the Russian Ambassador, George Bakhmeteff. Bakhmeteff protested against the Sulzer resolution for the abrogation on the ground that its final adoption would be incon- sistent with the long friendship that has existed between the United States-and Russia. While neither the President nor Secre- tary Knox was alarmed over the turn of affairs, it was said at the White House a determined effort would be made by Senate leaders to modify the Sulzer resolution. Owing to the reticence of all concerned in the negotiations, it was impossible to learn the exact nature of the protest. It is believed, however, to have been di- rected principally against the language of the Sulzer resolution, which boldly declares that Russia had violated the terms of the treaty of 1832. When informed of this, Sulzer, chair- man of the House Committee on For- eign Relations, declared that he saw: nothing insulting to “sensitive Russia’ in his resolution, and believed it would go through the Senate -wthout modifica- tion. — Senate Action Due Monday. Action on the . Russian treaty is scheduled in the Senate for Monday next, but it was indicated that consid- eration of the subject might be delayed. Meanwhile diplomatic negotiations are being continued with Russia, The Russian protest was made last night. Later the Ambassador and Sec- retary Knox called at the White House and took the matter up with the Presi- dent in a lengthy conference. Today the Secretary of State and the President considered the matter at length, and it was not until this conference was ended that the matter became public. Bakhemteff let it be known.that Rus- sia was decidedly dissatisfied with the Sulzer resolution. I* was from senators who visited the White House that Taft learned that an effort would be made to modify in the Senate the Sulzer resolution as it came from the House. Following the conference between Secretary Knox and the President the Russian Ambassador called at the State Department and was closeted for some time with the Secretary. Proposais for Modification. That the United States was leaning strongly to the hope that American Am- bassador Guild would be successful in obtaining a modification of the pass- port regulation with the St. Petersburg Government was indicated by a member of the cabinet. One basis suggested was that the Russian Government agree to admit Russia-American Jews whose character and standing was vouched for by the United States. It was the belief here that this suggestion had been of- fered by Ambassador Guild and that it was being considered by the Russian foreign office. Chairman Sulzer said regarding the resolution: ““‘The resolution follows prec- edent. It’ follows the language of three similar resolutions, abrogatigg treaties with Belgium, France and Switzerland.”’ The closest vote in the House on an attempt to modify the resolution was 114 ayes to 18 noes. This was the amend- ment of Representative Olmstead to strike out the charge that Russia had violated the treaty of 1832 and to insert the statement that the discrimination against Jewish Americans was construed as a violation of the treaty. Text of Resolution. The Sulzer resolution providing for the termination of the treaty as passed in the House Dec. 13 by a vote of 300 to 1 reads: “Resolved, by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States in Congress assembled, that the people of the United States ‘assert as a funda- mental principle that the rights of its citizens shall not be impaired at home or abroad because of race or religion: that the Government of the United States concludes its treaties for the equal protection of all classes of its citizens without regard to race or re- ligion; that the Government of the United States will not be a party to any treaty which discriminates or which by one of the parties thereto is so con- strued as to discriminate between «amer- lean citizens on the ground of race and religion; that the Government of Russia has violated the treaty between the United States and Russia concluded at | St. Petersburg, Dec. 18, 1832, refusing to honor American passports duly tesued to American citizens on account of race and religion;

nen Haar Spe tir say «9 for the aforesaid reasons the said treaty is hereby declared to be terminated and of no further force and effect from the expiration of one year after the date of notification to the Government of Rus- sia of the terms of this resolution and that to this end the President is hereby charged with the duty of communicating such notice to the Government of Rus- sia.’’ Republican Leader Mann of the House expressed the hope today that the “recitals” in the Sulzer resolu- tion would be stricken out before it passed the Senate. He said that it was not within the province of Con- gress to declare that Russia had vio- lated the treaty, though it was prop- er to say “in our opinion, from the linited States’ standpoint, pene anpesap has been violated.” Speaker Champ Clark, when ~ formed of Russia's protest againat the Sulzer resolution, said: “The House hag the right to pass any resolution in any form it pleases. News Excites Washington. News of Russia's protest spread through the city and caused a deécided sensation. Little else was talked of at the’ Capitol and there were numerous informal conferences among the national legislators. The eeSnate was not = ses- sion. The State Department admitted that the situation was serious. Some of the officials there have contended from the first that the abrogation of the treaty of 1832 would leave the United States without any sort of friendly intercourse with Russia and, therefore, in a worse position than now to enforce the admis- sion of American citizens. All thought of being,able to negotiate a new treaty with Russia, if the Sulzer resolation should pass, apparently has been @is- missed. NOTEIN POCKET | OF MAN KILLED INDICATES SU

Attorney Thomas E. Mulvihill Satur- day filed a motion in Judge Withrow’s court asking that the verdict of the mott will case be set aside. Judge Withrow announced that he would hear arguments on the motion ferred to the criminal division of the court. Mulvihill said that so far as he knew St. Louis. To assure a rehearing of the case he said he would also file a motion for a new trial. in favor of Mrs. Mary Farrington and against the Rev. Father John White, in the woman's suit against the priest- Mrs. Bridget McDermott, for the setting aside of the will. In accepting the verdict, directly Friday afternoon, Judge Withrow in- vited a motion to have the verdict set aside. When this is made and grant- will be offset by. a stroke of the Judge’s pen and the attorneys in the ease will begin over again.

The advice of this jurist,. whp has been on the bench of various Missouri courts from the Circuit to the Su- preme Court, was to fulfili their sworn obligation to return a verdict by sign- ing one in accordance with their own views and to ignore the mandate of the court. Lawyers Modify Opinions. Some of the lawyers who, before studying the case carefully, had said the striking jurors were wrong and eould be punished for contempt, inclined to modify their opinions Satur- day. Several said that the action of Judge Withrow in accepting the verdict was the proper one. . former Judge Matt G. Reynolds said: “Judge Withrow acted with a great deal of prudence in dealing with the case. On first thought I believed that he had the right to send the jury to jail for refusing to obey his instruc- tions, but I. am satisfied that a proper conclusion was reached. A will contest is different from the ordinary law suit, for the reason that the verdict of a jury must be had. It is not infrequent that judges instruct juries to find one way and they find another. It was a very interesting case, and the fact that the Judge accepted the verdict, and did not attempt to commit the jury, saveda lot of trouble.” Property in Litigation. The property in litigation is an old house standing on a fifty foot lot at 5350 Old Manchester road, and Attorney Mulvihill said Saturday morning the ‘walue was chiefly in the ground, worth from $1500 to $1800. There were unpaid taxes due and street improvements on two streets to be paid for when the deceased daughters of Mrs. McDermott transferred the ‘property to Father White, said Mulvihill, who declares he does not think that there is much dif- ference between the market value of the property and the amount Father White has paid out on it. ‘There are some facts that will be brought out in court soon in regard to this property and how it came iato the possession of Father White that the public should know," said Mulvihill. “They will come out in a. suit now pending in which Mrs. Farrington seeks to have the transfer of the property set aside. “We will prove that Mrs. Farrington refused to take the property on the ground that the charges against it were ‘more than it was worth, “The girls then went to Father White He told them him they had already offered it to her and she had refused. After being urged - to relieve the two invalid girls of the property, Father White consented and shortly before they died the two sisters gave Mrs. Farrington $600 they had saved in cash. “For a long time Mrs. Farrington lived in this property. It was the un- derstanding that she should pay a small amount of rent to the other sisters and should keep up the taxes. She not only failed to pay the rent, but allowed back taxes to accumulate.” Se ao 52 34 Dave. pied at SV Ne oredpe IA were | hy ny relieved b ‘ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. __ | © ARE MOST PEOPLE HONEST?

If you should lose a fat and val- uable pocketbook in a crowded St. where it would inevita- do you believe it would Louis street, bly be found, be returned? Here are the results of a little re- search work I did along this line. I was appointed an honesty squad of one to drop six plump pocketbooks in differ- ent parts of the city and try to deter- mine how the innocent bystander would act if people would literally throw money at his feet, instead of punc- tuating his uncontrollable curiosity with stray bullets. The pocketbooks were new and their “Was this your's, mister? didn’t intend te keep it.” contents were valuable enough to war- rant their being returned, honesty pre- vailing and other conditions not inter- fering. Each contained a $1 bill; a telegraph envelope on which were writ- ten my name and residence address; a certificate representing 50 shares of stock in a company which doesn’t ex- ist; a promissory note for $475; a clip- ping from the Wall Street Journal, and, to give a touch of sentiment, a photo- graph of a pretty young woman. The promissory note had been can- celed, of course, and it looked like just the kind of receipt one would hold to defend himself against an over-zealous creditor who had a bad memory and no bookkeeper. ? My name was typewritten plainly in the blank spaces of the stock certifi- cate, and the back of the document was printed in the popular heart disease yel- low of valuable bank notes. The clipping from the Wall Street Journal had to do with the latest quo- tations on Amalgamated Putty, or something of that sort, in order to give the finder the deliriqus impression. that {am in the habit of buying up railways and dodging indictments under the Sherman oe ere They Went. Well this. i" how the six pocketbooks went: I started at Third street and Washing- ton avenue. On the south side of Wash- ington avenue, where the crowd was comparatively thin, a man was handing out circulars, another was presiding solemnly over a basket of crullers, an] a hand organ man was discussing the outlook with a philanthropist who sells these fuzzy little dolls that dance and turn somersaults as long as nobody sees the thread and the operator’s finger doesn’t get too cold to supply motive power. I thought that was the proper place to drop No. 1, so I let it slide from under my overcoat,’ and it struck the Sidewalk with a lively spat. I walked on rather rapidly, expecting to hear a riot break out immediately in the ranks of two ‘‘small merchants,” a “musician” and a “publicity man’ in that vicinity, but nothing of the kind happened. Instead, a little boy about 5 years old came panting after me, and caught my overcoat. “Mister,” he said, “you lost your pockk- etbook.’’ His mother, who had been in command of the relief expedition, over took us, and said: “I just happened to see you drop it back there.” I thanked we wen them confusedly, and CL ta ra cold in chest y Omega Oil. s in A h the it the sy? to the inilouad servi Sore throat and EE ‘¢.

On the south side of Washington ave- nue, between Sixth and Seventh streets, I dropped No. 1 again. Although sev- eral persons were walking behind me, none of them saw it. A group of labor- ers walked right over it, and went on discussing various phases of hard luck. Then a rank of women swept down the Street, eastward, and a slender crea- ture in a long black coat and a red or wine-colored velvet turban, disenguged her arms from her companions’ grasp and picked the pocketbook up. Legless Man Sees It. Feeling rather nervous at the idea of throwing away real money, I took a turn around the block and dropped No. 2 on the west: side of Sixth street, be- tween Locust and St. Charles streets. A young woman who saw it bounce on the pavement looked at me ‘in aston- ishment—or, perhaps, pity—and walked hurriedly away. But the “pocketbook fell directly in front of a legless crip- ple, who was offering shoe laces for sale, and he lost no time in giving the alarm. “Hey, Billy!” he shouted, ‘but I walked slowly on, pretending not to hear. At this he whistled and emitted such a generous ‘“‘Hey, Billy!’”’ that passers-by stopped to see if Billy really had come to town. I had to turn back. “You'd bétter take care of that,’’ said the cripple, pointing to the pocketbook. “You might lose it.” And he laughed heartily, while a circle of interested spectators assembled to have a look at “Billy” and see what he would do for the honest shoe lace man. I dropped No. 2 next on Franklin ave- nue,-at the mouth of an alley between Seventh and Eighth streets. A negro girl about 16 years old was walking be- hind me and the pocketbook fell at her feet. She made a startled leap, shied | them Was an old negro, who carried a Oe “You'd better take care of that,” said the cripple. past the pocketbook as if in alarm and walked rapidly westward like she ex- pected some calamity to settle upon her. I stopped and gazed into a window. Just then a mixed wave of humanity Swept over the pocketbook, and al- though the passing occupied but a mo- ment, my treasure was gone when I looked for it again. The careers of No. 3 and No. 4 also were short. I dropped the first on Broadway near Franklin avenue, in Plain view of several persons. Ons of basket and walked slowly as if In great pain. Then I had proof again that Dr. Osler should have been teaching em- broidery work in a girls’ finishing school when he said a man should be chloro- formed at 60. The sight of that fat purse tumbling across the pavement seemed to bring back to the old negro all the vim and spryness of the bulldog: shotgun-watermelon days. A Negro’s Rejuvenation. He swooped upon it with the vicious- ness of an ultimate consumer who Is just about ultimate, turned into Franklin avenue and headed toward Fourth street. Hé. also footed toward Fourth street at a pace that seemed to astonish the other Spectators, as well as me. I! suppose they must have almost had lethal attacks of astonishment, since none of them warned me of my lo8y, al- though at least two of them had seen the pocketbook fall. I let the old fellow get about half a block ahead of me. Then-I started after him, using the swift stride every re- porter develops while ‘‘cubbing’’ in the districts where street cars are operated for educational purposes only. It wag no use then. Half a block was all he need- ed to lose himself in a forest of ever- green Christmas trees arrayed in front of a line of commission houses. Pocketbook No, 4 feil to the sidewalk on the east side of Broadway between St. Charles and Locust streets. Two women looked at it suspiciously and hurried on. A man behind me picxed it up. Two small boys joined in the curt- osity that prompted him to remove the rubber band and open the flaps, but he was so uncongenial that they gave up, after following him about half a block and straining their necks to the danger point. I walked along beside the man for about .a block, sometimes going ahead and again dropping behind him. He made no effort to restore the pocket- book, but I am not absolutely certain he saw me drop it. He wore a long black overcoat, a light-colored ‘“‘pan- cake’ hat and tan shoes. In front of a big store on Olive street I dropped No. 5. I walked away hur- riedly, but not quite fast enough.

A tail woman, dressed in dark clothes and wearing a}, FIRE IN black hat with a dash of white about it, darted from the door, picked up the forsaken pocketbook and darted back into. the big entrance. As I turned toward the entrance two women came out and one of them dropped a dime. A young man who was walking near me spied the coin when it quit rolling. “Tl beg your pardon, madame,” he said, “you dropped a coin.”” He stooped to pick.it up, but before he could reach it a woman seized it, crossed Olive street hastily and ran south on Tenth street with all the fervor of a comr muter making impassioned love to Time ou the fly.

On the opposite side of the same room a weary-looking W n called: ‘“‘Mis- ter! Mister!” as soon as the pocketbook struck the tiles. In the second-class waiting room, where are hérded the men who come here from foreign lands, intending to get rich, but eventually deciding to call it off and go into the retail peanut business, I dropped the purse again. Two timid-looking men immediately let loose a flood of language unlike any I ever heard, and the property was re- stored again. In the midway I dropped the pocketbook and walked hurriedly toward the Eighteenth street entrance. Just as I was about to start up the steps, a tall young man, wearing a brownish overcoat and a big buff-col- ored slouch hat, rushed up behind me and panted: “Feller, feller! Y’ lost yer pocket- book. I jist happened to see it fall,”’ While I thanked him, he laughed mer- rily as if the ethical standard makes grief for lost money almost needless in his country. Honest Working Girls. I then went to the Twentieth street entrance and dropped the pocketbook just outside the gate. Although it was getting dark and I was walking rapid- ly, two working. girls hailed me. ‘Hey, mister! You lost yer pocket- book,” one shouted, and the other said, as I picked up the purse, “You'd better bring yer maw with you next time.” In the- secdnd-floor waiting roofh I dropped the pocketbook directly in front of a boy, about 16 years old, who was seated on a bench in a dark corner, counting a handful of change. I saw his shadow flash across the floor and turned instantly. He was sitting just as he had been when I passed him, but the pocketbook was gone. Without letting him know I was watching: him I managed to stay near him for about ten minutes. Every time he moved I followed as if interested in something in his part of the room. At last he walked out the Market street door and, believing he had eluded me, he opened the purse. I followed and reached his side just as he unfolded the stock certificate. “Was this yours, mister?’ he asked in a trembling voice. “I didn’t intend to keep it. I’m a news butcher. Hon- I didn’t intend to keep it. Here, take it! Shake my hand. I'll know better next time.’’ Something suddenly made me feel very queer. I used to be a newsboy, too. And I used to sit counting my nickels and pennies and wish some such luck as finding an unclaimed purse would come to me. I repressed an in- clination to give advice and shook his hand. I hurried back to the midway and dropped the pocketbook again. Two Italian laborers walked around it with the greatest respect. A farmer, count- ing the lights in the train shed, stepped on it, but as I lIngered hopefully a flashily-dressed young negro hove in view. From the corner of my eye I saw him pick up the purse and look furtively at me. I saw him try to “re- store’’ it to the farmer. And I saw him look anxiously at me again and dash out the Twentieth street door into the darkness. The last pocketbook was gone; and from the circumstances under which it disappeared I felt, somehow, that it was gone for good. One Is Heard From, And what of the other five? — Well, up to date, I have hegrd from only one. It was* No.-1, which was picked up on Washington avenue by the young womarr with the long black coat and the red velvet hat. The day after the purses were lost, I got the following letter. ‘Dear Sir: If you are the owner of a purse which I have in my possession, and which I found on Washington ave- nue this afternoon, please call or write to me at 4024 South Broadway. “Yours truly, LILLIAN MEYER.”’ I have diligently searched the “Lost snd Found "column of the daily papers for traces of the others, but have found no reference to them. And all these results lead me to con- clude two things: Some S8t. Louisians are afraid of money when they see it lying in the street; others decidedly are not. I still believe the percentage of hon- esty is high in St. Louis. If I were to lose &@ purse containing the major part of my financial resources, I would live in hope for afew days. But in the meantime, I’d visit a few loan agencies to find out how much I could get on a standard typrewriter in good working order. —— You'll Deem It Right If DEEMS did it.

Admitting to the police that he openly threatened the life of William Holland, his former business partner, Henry W. Schlobohm Jr., held for police investiga- tion, denies that it was he who attacked and seriously injured Holland in his of- fice at 1429 North King’s highway. Schlobohm was arrested at his home, 2621 Shenandoah avenue, Friday after- noon, two hours after Holland was found unconscious and with his skull crushed. Mrs. Holland, who spent the night at her husband’s bedside at the City Hos- pital, said that her husband was partly conscious for a short time about 5:30 a. m. Saturday, and that he muttered: “Henry, go ahead and strike me. I’m not afraid of you.” W. T. Whitman of 3640 Page boule- vard, a former partner of Schlobohm, gave the police the information which led to Schlobohm’s arrest. He said Schlobohm had frequently said in his presence that he felt like killing Hol- land. “That’s what makes it look so bad for me,” said Schlobohm in a police station cell Friday. ‘“‘I did tell Whitman and others that I had a notion to kill Hol- land after we had fallen out over money matters. But that was just talk. “I was not near Holland’s office Fri- day. The last time I saw him was Thursday night, when we tried to patch up our business differences. Says He Was in East St. Louis. “I went down to the Anheuser-Busch brewery at 7:30a.m. Friday and stood around watching men at work building a new garage there. I didn’t ask for a job because they seemed to have all the men they needed. I didn’t speak to any- one. I hung around there until about 10:30 and went home. I didn’t speak to any of the family but went upstairs to my room. They called me to dinner about 11:30."’ This is the hour at which Holland is believed to have been attacked. Schlobohn says he cannot give the names of any persons who saw him in South St. Louis Friday morning. He says he did not meet anyone he knew. Paid $200 for Interest. Whitman told the police that Schlo- bohn bought an interest in Holland’s paper hanging business three months ago, paying $150 and giving a note for $50. They quarreled and the partnership was dissolved. Schlobohn claimed own- ership of a horse and wagon, but Hol- land would not turn it over to him, It was then, Whitsnan says, that Schlobohn first threatened to kill Holland. Whitman says that he and Schio- bohn had a conference with Holland in Holland’s office Thursday night. Hol- land offered to give Schlobohn a letter of recommendation, but Schlobohn re- fused to accept it. Holland then offered Schlobohn a job driving a wagon at $2 a day. This seemed to make Schlobohn angry and he walked out of the office. Holland is still unconscious at the cit, hospital and it is believed he has little chance for recovery. ~~ Christmas Presents on ogi oa Diamond Rings. rhage” J erento Cred- it.

While Ella Shelby was attending a store owned by her brother, John Shel- by, at 712 Chouteau avenue, Saturday noon, a stranger came in and asked to see some shawls. Miss Shelby turned to get them from a shelf and when she again faced the man he struck her on the head with some weapon. The screams of the girl brought her sister-in-law, Mrs. Margaret Shelby, downstairs and an ambulance was called which took the girl to the city dispen- sary, where wounds on the back and [top of her head were dressed, -after which she returned to the store. Miss Shelby said that a shabbily dressed stranger came in the store and asked to see some shawls. These were close to the cash register. ‘“‘When I got the shawls down,” she says, “the man struck me several times on the head and ran away. He did not téuch the cash register. I screamed and I sup- pose he heard my brother’s wife run- ning downstairs and did not have time to grab the money. “He was about 25 years old, 6 feet tall, dressed in a brown sult and brown hat.

B. Dickinson Tells of Experi- ence as Job Hunter for Post- Dispatch Readers. EE YOUTH THE BEST ASSET! Experience Not an Aid to Man Who Seek Employment, He Finally Concludes. Is a man worthless in St. Louis after he has passed 45 years of age? H. B. Dickinson of 3147 Washing, ton avenue thinks he is. He bases his conclusion on his own bitter expert- ence. For weeks he has been looking, for a job. In his wanderings he has seen men older than himself at work, but when he has used this as a rea- son why he should be employed he has been told that old men hold their places merely in recognition of long service and that when death or disa- bility weeds them out younger men are selected to succeed them. Dickinson has no trade, but he has had .years of experience as a retail salesman. He prides himself on his ability to bring out and emphasize the “talking points” on any article of merchandise which he may be em- ployed to sell. Here is his own.story of his efforts to find a job in 8, Louis. It is his summary o; the re- sult—or rather, lack of result—-of two typical days out of the many which he has consumed in the retail dis- trict, asking again and again that fu tile question: “Have you anything for me to do?” BY H. B, DICKINSON. 1. used to laugh at Dr. Osler. I thought he didn’t know what he was talking about when he said a man was worthless at 45 and ought to be at 60. Even now | won't say that I think he is right, but I am convinced that nobody in St. Louis wantg to employ a man whod is more than 45. I can't see why this should be. I have years of experience as my capi- tal I know that I am a better retail salesman than I was 20 years ago. I do not feel old. I had always consid- ered that experience was my capital, but I find that I was mistaken. In my. search for work 1 was told by macy St. Louis employers that they did not care to or could not afford to pay for experience when they could hire younger men at iower salaries. I found too, that women are competing with me, to such an extent that a large percentage of the vacancies are filled with girls Tells of Efforts. Here is an account of my efforts to find work on Wednesday ard Thursday of this week: My first visit Wednesday was to a large downtown department store. The superintendent was very considerate en@ affable. He listened attentively ‘hile I told him that I had been a re- tail drygoods salesman for more than 20 years. He courteously told me that nearly all of the extra Christmas holi- day help had been hired and tha‘ no men were being put on. He said thar my age would cut oo figure if he had 9 place for me. This seemed encouraging. But my hopes fell at the next [place—e large rétail clothing store. The”"manager here said that he had some old men work- “rg for him, but that he was not hiring any’ more. There was a greater demand for boys and girls. At another large retail store I was told by the superintendent that there ‘Was no chance for an elderly man. I was cot permitted to show my refer- ences. I walked into a large men's fur- nishing goods store and asked for the manager. When -I told him I was looking for work he was as polite as if I had dropped in to buy a couple of dozen shirts and a pair of silk sus- penders. But that was all. He could not give me a job. He was extremely sorry. Age was no bar, he said, and experience and ability should be en- couraged instead of cheap help. I looked about the beautiful store and

he would like to have younger men in their places. Spending one of my few remaining nickels, I went home to my boarding house tired and hungry. I was out again bright and early Thursday. The first place I went to was a large retail drug store. They carry so many things in a drug stre nowadays that I thought my general knowledge of sales- manship might be valuable. I was curtly told that the gencern did not hire elderly men. I got a similar answer at a clothing and furnishing store’ further up the street. Storekeeper Tells of Brother. The proprietor of a widely known hat store took the time to talk to me. He frankly told me there was little chance for any other than a young man. He said he had a brother who was a good business man, but that whe this brother found himself out of work at 50 he had to take a job as a bill col- lector. At four music houses I was told there was no place for me. They had jobs enly for experienced musicians or young women. At a big manufacturing plant wheré [ asked for office work I was told there was nothing for an old man. Another manufacturer told me thai my age would be no bar to my employ- ment but that there was no place open that I could fill. Two furniture and a large dry goods store ylelded no better results. In one case I was bluntly tol@-that I was too old. At anotWer furniture house and at a large retail grocery store the managers talked to me a long time and told me to call again, I am convinced that the busy commercial world—in St. Louis, at least—has no use for a man who is more than 45.

OPERATED UPON FORAPPENDIITIS NEW YORK, Dec. 16.—Cornelius Van- derbilt was operated on today for appendicitis by Dr. Austin Flint Jr. The operation was performed at Van- derbilt’s. Fifth avenue residence. Dr. Brewer assisted Dr. Flint. The following bulletin was issued: “Mr. Vanderbilt was operated on this morning. The result of the operation was entirely satisfactory. There are no complications and Mr. Vanderbilt is resting easily.’’ It did not become known outside the Vanderbilt family circle till. yesterday that the financier was suffering from appendicitis, though it was known among his friends he had been in ill- health. His illness did not reach the acute stage until about three days ago. Then Dr. Flint called in Dr. Brewer and the two after a long consultation decided that an operation would have to be performed within 60 hours. Then the fami.y was told. Mrs. Van- derbilt was the most affected. All had hoped that Vanderbilt's illness would not necessitate an operation. it was whid that the first signs were discovered when he was traveling abroad in the fall. He had spent the late summer in Germany, with his wife and children. ‘

LOUIS POST- DISPATCH. ) REVIEWS OF NEW BOOKS SATURDAY EVENING, , DECEMBER 16, 1911. ene OT L — eae OES that romance which Daniel And followed hotly night and noon And thence to other mountain ehains, THE ARCTIC TIC PRAIRIES ' D ‘Boote One day discovered moving West Beyond the Alleghenies’ crest, Across the dark ana oloody ground, Still live? O yes, it may be found Conserved upon the Arctic plains. If. Why, bless you! There is wilderness Enough for all of us who will, And e&sy living, none the less, That ohe has but to shoot and kill. The moose run everywhere around As once the buffalo did here, And the Buffalo Bill game is frewned Upon too darkly to appear. III. There is no one with long back hair Endeavoring to lay them low, And having killed them everywhere, Go out and give a ‘“‘Moose Bill” show. The modest native now and then Hangs one upon his smokehouse nails, But that is all, nine times in ten, And great unselfishness prevails. . Iv. And what is more romantic still, The country is about the same As when delivered from the mill According to creative aim. The wild broods everywhere about From Beersheba around to Dan, And one can easily be out A menth and never see a man. V. The world primeval pauses there With all that Nature can endow, A moment beautiful and fair, Refore it makes its final bow. There are the busy world’s outcasts, Each of them clinging to its nook, And the way to see it while it lasts Is to look in Mr. Seton’s book. “The Arctic Plains,’”’ with phetographs and many drawings by the author, by Ernest Thompson Seton. (Scribner’s.) “SPIRITUAL CURIOSITIES.” 'To see her agaia in all the. mys- ‘ory and Gelight and reality of her to hear her little throaty ice, wo full of the ergo ah (x) 6 a je te eS ne —y ARs y and «haps hold it pe dhe and still one ag moment in mastery against one the swift little motions of which t was so quiverful, to look into the Jusk of her eyes, so pregnant with the abysses that had forever en- _ thralled him—what more could he ask of fate? HAT more, indeed? A man who W would ask more than that would , be, to put it plainly, a hog. But listen farther to Marian Cox: As he pictured her in her new-found charm and sweetness, all his heart and veine uncongealed and gushed with an infinite tenderness and in- dulgence for her. His soul felt fam- . §ehed for her presence, as if it would pour manna upon its aching dearth, and at last the full dementia of his passion seized him for its trembling, sense-ridden prey. Apparently the writer is endeavoring to convey the impression that this man is in love. This impression is strength- ened as the reader passes to the next chapter, where Lawrence [Ilford is shown calling on Sabille Orman—Mrs. Sabilie Orman, for it is a married wom- an, alas, who has caused all the above flood of metaphor. | “T have missed you s0,"" she sighed, and enfolding him in the maddening fondness of her eyes. as be eat beside her on the divan. . All this maddefiing fondness lasted just long enough for the lady of the quiverful hands to get Iiford’s vote (he was a Senator or something) for a mea- sure which meant redoubled riches for her millionaire husband. Then: One final second she hesitated, toying with the tinsel galicon upon tne oe Meith an’ inflexible pre. ahd force: “I have changed gee mind. I retract all the foolish “things I said to you when we were last together.”’ That was a good deal of retracting, for there were several pages of con- versation, none of it especially sapient. in the chapter telling of their former meeting. But the previous confabs shrink to monosyilables in comparison with the reams of talk, most of it by Lawrence, which bring the story to a close. Marian Cox is the writer of ‘“‘The . Crowds and the Veiled Woman,” and - has been praised by Edwin Markham ‘and Max Nordau. (Kennerley.) —_—_—_—_—_— THE MAN OF OLAY. IRAM W. HAYBS, formerly a 8t. Louls newspaper man, now read- er of a Christian Science Church in Washington, D. C., and editor of a ‘s magazine, has itten, in “The Man of Clay,” a companion story to “Paul Anthony, Christian,” his ear- lier work. While disclaiming that the book is Christian Science literature, the author Says it is written for a purpose. The - purpose, palpably, is to instil Christian Science. As is usual when the purpose is palpable, some will read the book for the story and some for the purpose and some, maybe, will become inter- _ested in the purpose through interest in the story, which appeare-to be the real purpose of purpose books. | The scene is laid in Mexico. The characters, mostly Americans, are mem- bers of a house party there. Their ad- »i¥, inate and convince and transform the persons of clay in the book, do not illuminate or convince the clay reader. If personality were added te the argu- ments it might be different. The story, as such, is not gripping eneugh to stubtly instill an interest in the purpose for which it was written. The mah of clay, as defined by the author in the words of Paul Anthony, is “merely a compilation of false be- liefs, which parades in the guise of truth, calling itself man, the mental and physical manifestation of all the material beliefs of the age in which he lives.”” (Davis-Bend.) HUMAN CHARACTER OF JESUS. ORACE DAVIS has read the Gos- t+ pel of Mark closely in comparison with the other Gospels and has istry of Jesus,” treated historically from the standpoints of modern life. He does not disregard the supernatural en- does not require the reader to accept it on his authority or any other. In direct narrative, showing the connection of events, he is highly successful. He writes the best English. The character he {)- lustrates in describing that’ of Jesus, seems intended to represent an elevated human type now extinct. He does not follow .he outlines of Renan’s ‘Life of Jesus’’ or of similar works in German, but writes directly to his own conclusion in aig own way. (Am. Unitarian Ass’n.) SOCIAL VALUE. N inquiry into the theory of value A comes from the pen of Dr. R. M. Anderson Jr., instructor of political economy at Columbia University, in a little volume called “Social Value.’’ The essay was awarded second prize in the Hart Schaffner & Marx Prize Essays on Econemics. The author, who dedl- cates his work to his father, Prof. Ben- jamin M. Anderson of Columbia, inquires into the various theories of social value of products. He passes in review the various schools and gtves each due cred- it for contributions made. He concludes that: “‘Ends, aims, purposes, desires of many men, mutually interesting and mu- tually determining each other, modify- ing, stimulating, creating each other, take tangible, determinate shape, as eco- nomic values, and the technique of the social economic organization responds, and carries them out.” (Houghton-Mif- flin.)

HE essential features of prosperity ‘3 are discussed from their various angles by James Allen in ‘The Eight Pillars of Prosperity.” Arguing | that prosperity does not rest upon any immoral foundation of trickery. or dis- honest ‘practice the author supports the structure upon eight pillars, which he names energy, economy, integrity, sys- tem, sympathy, sincerity, impartiality and self-reliance. To each of these is devoted a chapter, divided in sub-titles showing the composition of each pillar. After each is finished the temple of pros- perity is shown resting upon the secure foundation of “The Principles of Truth.” (Crowell.)

He demonstrated to his own satisfaction that Gibraltar is not the important strategic it is supposed to be; that its guns are too far from the | channel of the strait to hit a ship, and. that France and Spain, or Spain alone, could blockade England's entrance to the port at any time. What England would be doing in the meantime, he does not state. In some parts of the book the writer gives free course to his own impressions. In other parts he wields the scissors furiously, and one can only imagine what like when he got through with his chap- ters on that country. (Dillingham.)

TEMPORARY SHELTER PLAN. = *The plan for the relief of the shelterless which e Civic League recommends to the Police: Board Fesdoubtedly embodies all it will be practicable to “@o in that direction with) the winter season al- *jeady upon us. The report suggests that the old, sanitary Four Courts building shall continue be used as a shelter, but that provision shall she made for. better ventilation and for frequent “Sleansing and disinfecting, Next in importance to temporary help for thé “Bhelterless and famishing is the matter of en- -~bling them to help themselves. The problem of “the unemployed in cities is one demanding ener- Yeetic and specialized effort. In some cities it is Kceiving it. In Seattle during 1910 employment was found for 29,010 persons at a cost to the city "af 514 cents for each job ured. Spokane is find- “itz employment for from 400 to 600 men and for é 50 to 100 women each month. In Milwaukee a#, committee on the unemployed has become one of the distinctive features of the present munici- Mal administration. A part of the Civic League plan in St. Louis ig card-index and-other records of all who avail themselves of the municipal shelter and of full ta as to their personal status. Those disabled to. be sent to hospitals. For those able to Work, employment will be sought by co-operation gith the State’s Free Employment Bureau. Cor- support should be given this part of the plan. "These arrangements, of course, are to be re- garded as only in the nature of a makeshift. Be- re the coming of another winter we must have quarters for the Municipal Lodging House da better system of looking after the shel- Werless and unemployed. The criminal and lazy d also have their deserts. —_>--—————— Because of the juror who ran away, a third Dr. Hyde trial becomes necessary. The possibility of something happening to a juror is always present in a criminal trial. It occasions embarrassment and inconvenience enough under judicial proceed- ings conducted with reasonable expedition. It becomes a: positive calamity under proceedings s0 conducted as to entail almost intolerable delay A remedy should be adopted. i i = +. THE VULNERABLE POINT. The action of the British Government in refus- ing to deal with Chicago packers while they are “in serious litigation with the Government” offers a solution of the trust problem from an unexpected quarter. If Great Britain should for- bid her people as well as her governmental de- ents from trading with the Beef Trust, the oe Machinery Trust and the Harvester Trust, bn account of litigation, these organizations would : into court and set their houses in order. This flank movement threatens to cut off part the entrenched interests’ incomes. This is the Inerable point. 2. i, i. ~4 —--. = ‘Will Alfonso name the new baby after Aunt Eulalia? . ++ --—— 4 Oe ewallctetcosni quencians RACE SEGREGATION. - (Neighborhood associations of this city are advo- eating the passage of an ordinanc® for the segre- gation of white and colored races on the Balti- more plan of last spring. White persons are to be forbidden under penalties from moving into ES blocks in which a majority of the residents are colored and colored persons are to be forbidden to. move into blocks in which a majority of resi- dents are white. The plan is fatuous and futile. Enactments of the sort claSh with the spirit of our institutions and, since the Civil War, with the supreme law of the country. The Federal prohibition en laws which “abridge the privileges and immunities of gitizens of the United States” bars its enforce- “ment, even if in harmony with the State Consti- é - Baltimore’s ordinance was in force but a few hours before it wis nullified by the courts. _ The aims of the improvement associations are “helias, amas do something’ eiee'sotmewhers. : Yet it} | JURY TRIALS—FARCE OR REALITY? Judge Withrow is to be commended for his wise action in accepting the verdict of the jury in the McDermott will case ana receding from his order that the jury sign a verdict contrary to their judg- ment on the evidence. We do n«t doubt the legal correctness of his decision. We do not pretend to expertness in legal technicalities, but we do pre- sume to say that the conclusion of this case is in accordance with common sense and the principles of equity which should underlie all law and judi- cial practice. That the rights of juries in similar cases have been overruled seems to have been due wholly to their ignorance of their rights and the law. But the victory of this jury goes beyond the mere validating of the right of juries to record their own verdicts and to refuse to sign judicial verdicts contrary to their convictions. It estab- lishes the right to an actual trial by jury against the judicial practice of giving the technical form —the shadow—instead of the substance. In his able defense of the judicial practice, which we publish elsewhere today, John F. Green refers to the constitutional provision that parties shal) be entitled to jury trial-in certain cases, saying, “In will contest cases the statutes prohibit a non- suit or a dismissal, and there must be a verdict.” But he adds that this ‘‘means only that if, in the opinion of the Court, plaintiffs have by their pleadings and by their proofs made out a proper case for submission to the jury, then the jury must | pass on the facts, but it is for the Court in every case to decide, in the first place, whether the plaintiff, either by his pleadings or his proofs, has made out a case for submission to the jury.” Mr. Green says there is no inconsistency in compelling the jury to record the Judge’s con- clusion as its verdict. : It may be granted that a judge in ordinary cases may refuse to submit them to juries, a pro- ceeding of doubtful propriety unless there is no issue of fact. But in those cases where trial by jury is specifically provided by the Constitution and a verdict is demanded by law, is it not a sub- stantial denial of the right and a substantial vio- lation of law to force the jury to sign a verdict contrary to its judgment of the facts? Does it not substitute the technical and farcical form for the reality ? We cannot see the parallel drawn by Mr. Green between this case and the case of a reversal of a decision of a lower court by a superior court. In the reversal of a decision the judgment of the lower court is set aside and that of the higher court is substituted therefor. The moral respon- sibility of the inferior court judge is not in any wise involved. He does not actually or formally sign or approve it as his decision. If trial by jury is to mean anything as an es- sential part of the administration of law it must be maintained on the basis of reality and good faith, not by technical evasions. The rights of juries as well as the rights of litigants to true jury verdicts must be sustained in law and prac- tice. 4 = = * — Why shouldn’t our Government, too, refuse to deal with the Beef Trust and with all other trusts as well, including the Powder Trust? = = * — DRIVE OUT THE ‘‘CON’’ MEN. St. Louis will compare more than favorably with any other city of its size in tle matter of morals, but there is one respect in which the need’ of improvement is urgent. Scarcely a day passes without the fleecing of some stranger by Sharpers. Almost every attempt at bunco begins on the streets or in some of the numerous semi-public resorts in the neighborhood of the Union Station. And the sameness and lack of originality of the swindles indicate that they are engineered by one and the same gang of petty crooks. That these harpies should be permitted to ply their trade at the main gateway of the city day in and day out, apparently unhindered, reflects little credit upon the guardianship exercised br the Police Department over a district requiring especial vigilance in behalf of the stranger within our gates, whose story of being swindled, well- circulated among his friends at home, advertises St. Louis in a fashion at once unpleasant and un- profitable. There is no brief in this for the swin- dled fo = = ‘ — The esteemed Appeal to Reason of Girard, Kan., doesn’t seem to be quite as snappy as it was be- fore the McNamaras. confessed. == = a A SHAMEFUL SPECTACLE. The hanging of a negro murderer on the stage of an opera house at Jackson, Ga., was a shock- ing demonstration of barbarity, little mitigated by the negro’s prior conviction and confession. That the boxes and front seats should have been crowded by friends and relatives of tse negro’s victim aggravates the offense. Evidently the performance was a gala occasion for the town. Unfortunately, its chronicler neglected to list the social leaders present or de- scribe their gowns. Nor did he inform us whether lemonade and cake were. served or whose orches- tra enlivened the affair. Mirderers, duly convicted, must pay the pen- alty of their crimes. But that penalty should be inflicted before the minimum number of wit- nesses required by law. And no relative or friend of the condemned or the victim should be eligible as a witness. Such performances as that at Jackson are shameful. The Sheriff responsible should be se- verely disciplined. “The Female of the Species” may have been in- spired by the divine afflatus. But it affects us like an effluvium. . ‘*HOME AND SOCIETY.’’ 48 the “dance hall problem” is being presented in St. Louis, it is the problem of “the relations of home to society,” for those whose homes are “domiciles” only. Legally, a “domicile” is a home. In fact, it is a place to sleep in, with some incidental possibilities of eating in it, but no ac- commodations for sociability with outsiders. For the thousands as yet unnumbered who must go away from home to be sociable, it is ap- patent in connection with the public dance hall, as with the private clubhouse, thgt people who can only sleep (and perhaps eat) in their domi- appears that when block 4500 to 4600 Lindell boulevard is threatened with the clubhouse of the most exclusive woman's club in St. Louis, the whole block is in danger of ruin for cena purposes. So from bottom to topmwe have the problem of home and society concentrated to the sticking point. When we either cannot or will not be extensively sociable at home, we, certainly need domiciles where we can sleep, undisturbed by others, who go away from .home when they begin being sociable. Thus far, the only relation home proves itself to have with society is connected with the open determination to have social ac- tivities removed to another block. eee Chicago is unusually | receptive ta to new move- ments promising civic betterment, but is not ex- pected to adopt the idea of the organization in |.

Lr - LETTERS Fkum THE PEOPUE COURT AND JURY. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The unusual action of a jury in Judge Withrow’s court in refusing to return a verdict as directed by the Court, has given rise to public discussion respecting the relative rights and duties of Judge and jury. This practice of the Judge in directing the jury to return a particular verdict whenever in his opinion there are no disputed facts in evi- dence for the jury to pass upon, or whenever in his opinion the law requires a. particular verdict and judgment notwithstanding the facts offered in evidence, is so common that it is a matter of astonishment that even laymen should not be famillar with it. In any action for negligence, or for libel or slander, if the Court is of the opinion that the facts alleged or proven do not show or tend to show any such negligence as would make the de- fendant liable in damages or that the language shown to have been published was not libelous, it is the duty of the Court to instruct the jury to re- turn a verdict for defendant anditis just as plainly the duty of the jury to obey the instruction. Some times this duty of the Court to so instruct the jury in such cases is obviated by the attorney for the plaintiff electing to dismiss the suit or to take a non-suit; but if the attorney does not choose to do this, then, in every such case, the Court must direct the jury to return a verdict for defendant. In will contest cases the statutes prohibit a non- suit or dismissal and there must be a verdict. The constitutional provision that parties shall be en- titled to jury trials in.certain cases, means only that if, in the opinion of the Court, plaintiff have by their pleadings and by their proofs made out a@ proper case for submission to the jury, then the jury must pass upon the facts; but it is for the Court in every case to decidg, in the first place, whether the plaintiff, either by his pleadings or his proofs, has made out a case for submission to the jury. There is no inconsistency in this practice, nor does it involve any violation or straining of the juror’s oath to try the case according to the law and the evidence, because in such cases the Court records must always be made to show that the verdict and judgment were rendered by di- rection of the Court—not as the voluntary finding of the jury. Appellate courts frequently reverse judgments of lower courts, and direct the judges of such courts to enter a particular judgment instead of the ones they have entered and believed to be correct. Yet no judge of a Circuit Court would be so foolish as to refuse to enter the judgment directed by the Appellate Court on the ground that it violated his conscience, because the records would show that it was rendered by him under direction from a higher authority, and he was not in any way, mor- ally or otherwise,-responsible forit. The oath of jurors is to decide the case according to the law and the evidence, and it is for the Court to declare! the law; and if the law makes it his duty to direct a particular verdict then his direction is for the jury the law of that case, and it is the sworn duty of jurors to obey it. In the recent decisions of the cases of Cook vs. Pulitzer Publishing Co. and Tilles vs. Pulitzer Publishing Co. the Supreme Court ordered the judgments in those cases reversed without re- manding, which means merely that in the opinion of the Supreme Court the trial judges in those cases ought to have instructed the jury to return a verdict for defendant, and because these trial judges failed to do their duty in this respect the judgments were reversed without any opportunity for another trial. There never was any system of jurisprudence, including both a judge and a jury, devised in which the judge did not have some such control over the jury, and it is a safe prediction that there never -will be, because without such power and authority in the judge, the jury system would not be practicable. JOHN F. GREEN. New York Firearms Law. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I inclose clipping I cut from your Dec. 8 issue relating to the fire arm law of New York City. How soon may we look for a similar law for St. Louis to prevent citizens keeping fire arms of any kind in their homes for the protec- tion of their families and their women? Will the free-born, free-thinking American sleep on, until they are tied hand and foot by a dominat- ing influence on the lines of the middle ages, and awake later on to find the best they can hope for is a slight loosening of the bonds? What is the matter with us? Are we “doped for fair?” M. STEFFAN. Overdoing Sales. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Have you heard the different merchants ask, “What is wrong with business?” As a merchant Iam going to give you my views on this point: Refore any season is’ opened, sales are adver- tised. To my knowledge there are only three clothing houses in St. Louis that have not cyt the price, and to my Knowledge they are doing as much business and more than the clothing stores that are advertising sales and their suc- cess is lasting, for the methods they are pur- suing. ¢ This method in a measure has led lots of people to ask, “what is wrong with St. Louis?” There is nothing wrong with St. Loufs. The mer- chants are killing themselves. You look over a Chicago paper or any New York paper and you will not see any such fictitious prices and exag- gerated values, and the amount of clothing sold in these cities, compared to St. Louis, at regular prices, good values, is far in -excess, Two clearance sales a year is all that is nec- ‘essary for any house—Feb. 1 and Aug. 1. F R. DURNING. Look Where You Are Going! To the Edlior of the Post-Dispatch. ‘Humanity” thinks that our Municipal Assem- bly ought to force auto owners to provide a continuously ringing bell or other device to pre- vent accident. “Humanity” ought to wake up. There is not one person in 50 who looks to see if there is an auto coming. Most of the time it is the peoples’ fault who get hurt by autos. Of course, there are a few exceptions.

LOUIS. | “I INTRODUCTION. a _ttilingind wokaon. ie | | | * WHY NOT THE HAGUE? From the Christian Science Monitor. The United States cannot well continue to tolerate discriminations against her citizens, Russia has unquestionable prior right to settle who may or may not enter her borders and on what terms. On the other hand, the fact re- mains that both Russia and the United States agreed, in article 38 ‘of The Hague. peace treaty of 1907, that ‘‘in questions of a legal nature, and espe- cially in the interpretation of applica- tion of internatfonal conventions, arbi- tration is recognized by the contracting powers as the most effective and at the same time the most equitable means of settling disputes which diplomacy has failed to settle.”’ An interpretation of the treaty of 1832 between the disputing powers by The Hague tribunal would be far more inspiring to the world than prompt abrogation of the treaty by the United St&tes following failure to ad- just the dispute by diplomacy. HER “LITTLE GENTLEMAN.” From,the Cleveland Plain Dealer. He was only a poor little messenger boy. When the young woman stepped into the elevator on the first floor of the Williamson Building it was crowded with big men—and that messenger boy. In an instant the boy snatched his hat from his head. One by one, but with shamed blushes, the men inj the elevator followed suit. The young woman was not handsome, but she was neat and trim and self- possessed. Quickly she turned to the lad and said: “You are a little gentleman—one of the old-fashioned sort!’’ and she flashed @ wonderfully sweet smile upon him. The child looked at her in amazement. He had been fumbling with his cap, but now he found the message he had stuck in its sweatband, took it out, stuck his cap on his head and began to whistle. SIN VS. SURGERY. From the New York Evening Post. The mystery of evil is not altogether cleared up by the moral improvement that now and then follows a surgical operation, if the judgment of some of those who know him is correct in the case of a certain Yonkers lad. The phy- siclans are reported as diagnosing his trouble as original sin, aggravated by association with bad companions. This diagnosis ts capable of far wider appl cation. We see ex-bankers going to prison without the suggestion by their counsel that the trial be halted to al- low the performance of an operation upon the skulls of the accused. That our shrewdest attorneys do not résort to this process must tend to confirm the notion tha whether original or acquired, sin rather than want of surgery is at the bottom of most moral delinquencies.

J. O'CONNOR. ‘FTER listening to the inarticulate wailings of wine-buying and war-breeding magnates for a week, one finds particular pleasure in returning to the old task of telling the manager how to run his ball team. Managers have it on magnates forty ways from the acé, doing everything. Reason: manager to buy. In the business imbroglio at New York during the current week, neither St. Louis team negotiated a trade or a purchase and Managers Bresnahan and Wallace will probably face the barrier next April as the only ‘‘Stand-patters’”’ in both leagues. They failed to ais- pose of or buy any players in New York and practically the same players who participated in the series last fall will toe the mark in the spring sonatas. In- cidentally St. Louis has the distinction of being the only city with two major league teams that will ring up in 1912 with the same managers who rang down in 1911. Roderick and Roger will stick’ In all other cities where two teams are harbored, one hew manager will show next spring. Looking through frosted field glasses, however, one can see at least one prob- able switch in the Brown line-up. These long-range predictions are hazardous, but if the many good things said about Second. Baseman Pratt are’ true, the Montgomery (Ala.) boy will second sack for the Brownies next year, while Frank Laporte will do garden duty. This its not an official announcement from Man- ager Wallace, but it is only truth that the Brown tactician heard nothing but boosts for Pratt during the recent meet- ing in New York. A Boost Frow Bureb. Al Burch, the former Cardinal and Brook- lyn outfielder, who will play with the Louis. ville Colonela, next year. was the most san- guine supporter of the Pratt cause. Rurch wae released by Brooklyn to Chattanooga last season, and finished out the yeaf with the Southern. Association. He had ample op- portunity to observe Pratt's work. and here's how he reported to Wallace: ‘Pratt ig a natural hitter and a natura! fielder. iie has speed and a good arm. On top of that he’s ambitious. He covers a lot of ground and Goes so without exertion. I think he's the most promising young plav- er I've seen in many a day.’’ Sparkling wine is too high for the poor This and other lavish boosts, coming from men who should know whereof they speak, got Tactician Wallace to thinking, and it was evident that he made a mental nota- tion to put Spratt on second base when the vybell taps for the start of hostilities next spring Sw.tching Laporte to the outfield would not be a hard task. Francois,, the Urichville chicken raiser, has fly-chased be- fore. He did meadow duty for the Yankees and for the Red Sox. Incidentally Laporte Gid his best sticking while disporting on the fair green, and Boss Wallace is happy in the fact that he may be able to strength- en his infield by putting Spratt at second and then bolster up his outfield by putting Laporte jin right. Hogan, Shotton and Compton \will fight it out for the other fily- chasing jobs. Shotion is pretty sure of: his assignment in center. Compton showed a jot at the wind-up last season, but Manager Wallace is inciined,go think that Bill Ho- gar will make goud with a vengeance next season. Hogan %Vas Sick. A Philadelphi@ newspaper man who fol- lowed the fortunes of the Athletics for the past three yewurs. @sked Wallace in New York why it was that Hogan didn’t prospe” with the Brownhies. Roderick replied: ‘‘Bill Was sick jast season. I was surpriséd that he played .ag regularly as he did. He couldn't get acclimated until near the wind- up, but he refused to step down. I rely on him for reguiar duty next year.’’/ ; So it is that the fans seldom know why baliplayers are no* going at their best. Wal- lace says Hogan was in pretty bad phys- ical shape last year. In fact, Manager Bob stili wonders why Hogan played as mucn as he did Huwever, the fans always ‘were in ignorance of Hogan's condition. Wallace is anxious for next season to start. Roderick bas a good line on his matefia. for 1912, and he intends to get a flyine start. He is strcne for the idea of trainine at home, and thinks he will have a better [getaway under this scheme than he did last year. when the Brownles browsed on the arid fleids of flot €prings, Ark.* A good dia- mond always makes a hit with the players. rhe. Hot Springs diamond was aie joke. Sportsman's Park fleld is a beauty. So Mr. Wailace is happy. eae Rucker Was Roger’s Goal When He Tried to Buy Charles Dooin Fans are unable to reason out why Bres- nahan should have been after Charley Dooin. The answer is obvious. Brooklyn wants Doo- in and Bresnahan wants Nap Rucker, who at the present writing, is on the Rrooklyn re- serve jist. Pity poor Henry O'Day, dean of umpires, but novice among managers! When Hank trips upon the sand lots next spring, al! decked out in his managerial togs, there will be a lot of kidding started with Henry on the short end of the betting. Some of the players who are laying for Hank are Manager Bresnahan of the Cardinals and Mike Doolan of the Phillies. Doolan and Bresnahan have warred with O’Day since father was a boy. Fred Clarke celebrated his withdrawal from the active end- of the game with a little party in New York. Only Fred’s intimate friends were present, but ‘tis said that Fred apologized to Owner Dreyfuss the next day fur some of his (Clarke's) capers. Pormer St. Louls managers were plentiful in New York the last day of the meeting. Johnny McGraw, Jim, McAleer, Tim Hurst, Jimmy Burke, Pat Donovan and the present tacticijans, Bresnahan and Wallace, were around the corridora. Hurst managed the for «a brief spell, eons and eons The finish fight between Battling Fogel! One-round Dooin Frank Navin and W. H. Yawkey, owners of the Detroit American League Club and recent purchasers of the Providence (In- ternational League) team, cut the proper caper when they retained Frederich Lake, gum-shoed scout of the Browns, to man- age the Providence team. The fact that Lake was running loose proved too deep a mystery for baseball men to solve. How- ever, Navin and Yawkey were on the job and got Lake to john-hancock a contract calling for a handsome figure. Lake is weary of scouting. He told the Post-Dispatch representative in New York that he would not scout again next season, and in signing with Providence he only did what he should. Owner George Tebeau of Kansas City was one of the Many wise men who couldn’t figure why Lake should be idle. Speaking of Mr. Tebeau, there's a good one going the round at his expense. Be- fore going to New York, George purchased a fur-linéd overcoat for $175, which is an investment. The “benny” created quite a atir around the Waldorf Hotel. One eVen- ing, though, Tebeau rushed breathlessly up to Billy Grayéon, owner of Louisville. “I've lost my coat,” shouted the Kaw City magnate. A diligent search wag made, Grayson leading the sleuths. After an all- night tour of the cafes, Tebeau returned to the Waldorf and found that he had checked his coat in the cloak room. The discovery necessitated the purchase of an- other quart, Harry Wolverton kept up his task of cleaning house and sent two more Players to Rochester—Catcher Blair and Pitcher Klepfer. Inflelder Otis Johnson and Short- stop Martin were sent along, just ag was Wid roy of Washington. New Yok BATTLE HYMN OF THE CALABASH.

One was the purchase and sale of a player of the name of Lockwood, who is dead. Lockwood was purchased from the Vancouver (B. C.) club and later let go to Sacramento. He also found that he had one pitcher less than he thought. Fournier, also pur- chused from Vancouver and thought by Stahl to be a pitcher, turned out to be a catcher. The new manager said he had made formal application to the commission for reinstate- ment. He expects to be placed in good standing as soon as the members can take a matl vote. His refusal to report to Bos- ton last year, caused the black mark against his name. He expects to be ready to go with his players on March 10 to Hot Springs to begin training. BRANNIGAN SUSPENDED; ST. LEOS WILL NOT QUIT The soccer war has been averted. ‘‘Bull’’ Brannigan, the starry forward of the St. Leos, will not be suspended for three weeks and Klostermann’s city champions will not quit the league. That decision was reached at a meeting of the officials Friday evening. Brannigan has been set down for one week. however, this sentence representing a compromise. Manager Kiostermann of the St. Leos says he will stand for a one-week suspension of his field leader and star.

OLLEGE authorities have about ad- mitted their importance to control the playing of amateur baseball; the A. A.

It will take about forty huskies like Hercules, a couple of score of Titans and « gross of Cyclopses to clean the Augean stables in the billiard woods. ‘And, in- cidentally, Diogenes had a real graft of it hunting for an honest man compared to the job of him who tries to find a billiard player who has never played for money. | nection with the ticket scalping during the world’s series.

It is that baseball countenances things that can’t nold under the law. ' eo 2 “Daly beats De Oro at table,”’ re- cites a Chicago headline.

His Idea of Bonanza. CERTAIN man had a disastrous experience in gold mine specu- lations. One day a number of col- leagues were discussing the subject of speculation, when one of them said to this speculator: “Old chap, as an expert, give us a definition of the term ‘bonanza.’ ”’ “A ‘bonanza,’’”’ replied the experi- enced man, with emphasis, “is a hole in the ground owned by a champion liar!” Alma Mater. ARMER UPSTATE (writing to col- lege president): ‘“‘That boy Josh, of ourn, writes me that he’s in love with his Alma Mater.

NEW FABLES IN SLANG NCE upon a Time a Rugged Character from the Middle West was in New York City fixing up a Deal. Although he wore overlapping Cuffs and a ready-made Tie, he had a Rating, so a certain Promoter with an Office in Broad

O hacia found it advisible to make a Fuss over him: The Promoter invited the prospective Mark to Luncheon and to have same served in a snug Corner entirely screened by Oleanders Palms. The Chef received private Instructions to throw himself, so he per- sonally supervised a dainty Menu which any Gourmet might be ee nounce a Triumph. When the Visitor entered the far-famed Establishment and * himself entirely protected from the Vulgar Gaze he knew that at last be | was in the Headquarters for sure-enough Food. “What is it?” he asked, gazing into the limpid ‘Amber of the First Course. “Turtle Soup,” replied the Host. “We shoot the Blame Things just for Practice, out our Way,” saiq the Guest, “but if I went Home and told my Wife I’d been eatin’ Turtle she wouldn’t live with me.’ So the Alsatian Nobleman hurried it away and substituted a Tid-Bit with Cray-Fish as the principal Ornament in the Ensemble. “It’s a Craw-Dabber!” exclaimed the horrified Man from the Prairies. “I see Ten Million of them little Cusses every Spring, but I wouldn’t touch one with a Ten Foot Pole.” To relieve the embarrassing Situation, the Host gave a Sign and the Menials came running with the Third Course, a tempting array of Frog _ Saddle; “A Frog is a Reptile,” said the Hoosier, backing away from the Table. “T’ve heard they were Et, but I never believed it. I can go out any Morn ing and gather a Car-Load.” The next Serving was Breast of Guinea Hen with Mushrooms under Glass on the Side. “On my Farm I’ve got a lot of these Things,” said the Guest, poking at the Guinea Hen timidly with his Fork. “We use them as Alarm Clocks, but I’d just as soon eat a Turkey Buzzard.” “Tlow about the Mushrooms?” “Eight People in our Township were poisoned this Summer from foolin’ with that Truck. My pasture’s speckled with ‘em, but we never pick ’em. Most of them are Toadstools. I tried a Real ‘One once at 4 K. P. Banquet. It tasted a good deal like a Rubber Glove.” The cnly remaining Item before Desert was a tempting Salad of Water Cress. The Guevt identified it as something that grew in the Crick below the Spring and was commonly classified as Grass, . “Perhaps you had better order for Yourself,” said the Host, as the lowly Water Cress foliowed the others into the Discard. “14 The Guest motioned the Waiter to come close and paid: “I want a nice Oyster Stew and some Sparkling Burgundy.” Bs MORAL—A Delicacy is Something not raised in the same County.
