Rex, committeeman from the Twenty-eighth Ward, did not appear as a member of his delegation, but he filed it. An interesting feature of the Clark delegations was that Victor J. Gebhardt, who ran for United States Senator against Folk and Stone, was a member of the Clark delegation from the Elev- enth Ward. Sanders said Edward Devoy had agreed to head the Folk delegation in the Twenty-eighth Ward, and that l’‘rank K, Ryan, a lawyer, and Dr. Ed- ward Preston Hill, president of the Sin- zle Tax League, were to head delega- tions in other wards. In his letter to Chairman Fay, San- ders said that, instead of holding pri- maries according to the _ instructions given by the Democratic State Commit- tee, the City Committee proposed to hold a primary without enforceable restric- tions or regulations, with no protection whatever against fraud. “If we participate in such a primary,” said Sanders in the letter, ‘‘there will be no way for us to secure either a fair vote or a fair count; no way of deter- mining the identity of the voters, no Way to prevent votes from being cast by Republicans and others having no right to vote in a Democratic primary, and no way to prevent one man from voting in the name of another nor to stop the gangs of repeaters from going their rounds of the polling places, voting as often as their bosses have instructed. s “Primary Would Be Farce.” In the country district where voters are personally known and primaries are fair, the results are unquestioned; hut here in St. Louis when you do not know your neighbor, such a primary as you propose to hold will be a farce.” The Democratic State Committee or- dered a primary to be held under the direction of the city committee, but or- cered the use O6f official registration and poll books and ballot boxes. The toard of Election: Commissioners’ de- clined to let the committee use the reg- istration and poll books.

Bargain hunters were packed so tight- ly against the doors that for a time it seemed impossible to open them. The doors open outward, and the pressure of the crowd held them fast. Using all their strength, a small army of clerks inside pushed the doors out- ward, breaking one from its hinges. This left a small opening, through which nine men entered one at a time. A tall negro hurdled the line, jumped over men and women in front of him, and forced his way into the store. Suits of clothes were given free to the first 10 men who entered. Bundles were handed to them and they were told that if the suits didn’t fit they could ex- change them after 6 p. m. As the crowd continued to press against the doors ropes were thrown out over the transoms and stretched by the policemen who beat the crowd back with their clubs. Men’s hats were bat- tered and women’s clothing was torn in the bargain rush. Finally after an hour’s work a narrow path was cleared and relays. Inside the store there was another scramble. Standing on a table a tall blonde young woman in black essayed to sell the one-cent stockings. At the other end of the room a stout, dark woman dispensed the lu-cent trous- ers. Both of these tables were centers of swirling crowds. It was announced that purchasers must have exact change. There was no time for fitting the stock- ings or the trousers or for ordering them by number. No one could buy more than two pairs of stockings or one pair of trousers. A piece of paper was wrapped loosely around each purchase. If a stout man got slim trousers there was no help for it. On every corner within two blocks of the store men could be seen com- paring and exchanging their purchases. RANKEN HEIRS QUALIFY ee Thomas S. Lytle and Hugh R. Lyle, nephews of David Ranken, the wealtliy bachelor who died Sunday at 1214 Wash- ington avenue, qualified Wednesday in the Probate Court as administrators of his estate, which is Supposed to be worth about $275, The estate will be shared by Ranken's brothers, his sister and six nieces and nephews. Ranken was a cousin of the late David Ranken, who established the David Ranken School of Mechanical Trades. Spirits forRheumatism The use of spirits in the treatment of rheumatism has proved an in- novation among the medical profes- sion. When mixed with certain other ingredients and taken proper- ly it is said to be an almost infal- lible cure for rheumatism and backache. Here is the formula: “From your druggist get one ounce of Toris compound (in _ original sealed package) and one ounce of syrup of Sarsaparilla compound. Take these two ingredients home and put them into a half pint of good whiskey. Shake the bottle and take a tablespoonful before each meal and at bed time.” Results come immediately. If your drug- gist does not have Toris compound in stock he will get it in a few hours from his wholesale house. Don’t be jinfluenced to take some patent med- fcine instead of this. Insist on hav- ing the genuine Toris compound in two of the original one ounce led “= sealed yellow | the bargain hunters were admitted in Neighbor Tells of as of Quarvel Couple Had Just Prior to Tragedy. The testimony of Mrs. George Ward, @ neighbor, in the trial at Edwardsville of George Yates for the murder of his wife Apri] 4, 1911, stirred the crowded courtroom Wednesday. Mrs. Ward said that Mrs. Yates had called on her that afternoon and weepingly told of a quar- rel with Yates she had re- fused to give him her money. Half an hour after the visitor had returned home she was killed. Mrs. Ward said that Mrs. Yates had told her that her husband demanded the money she had received for chick- ens and they had quarreled so bitterly that Mrs. Yates had come to the con- clusion they would have to separate. Mrs. Ward advised her to go back home and try to patch things up. On motion of an attorney for the de- fense, the conversation Mrs. Ward re- peated was ordered stricken from the record, because the defendant was not present when it took place. Mrs. Ward is the wife of a foreman at the factory where Yates was employed. Thomas Moriarty, Captain in charge cf the Edwardsville Police Station the right of the killing, was the first wit- ress called Wednesday. He testified that he was at the station when Yates came in and called him out for a pri- vate talk. Yates told him, he said, that he had killed his wife, and gave him the keys to the home. He locked the man up and sent Lieut. Jelidcka to the house to investigate. Jelidcka testified Tuesday that he found Mrs. Yates’ body on a bed, with two bullet holes in the head and the throat cut. Two physicians testify that any of the four wounds—two from a re- volver, two from a knife—would have proved fatal. A pathetic figure in the courtroom was Yates’ father, M. D. Yates, who is 75 years old and blind. The old man was led down the aisle, tottering feebly along beside.his wife, who is past 70 vears old. The two sat down at a table beside their son. Opposite them were Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Darragh, fos- ter-parents of the slain woman. 2 DOGS BREAK OUT AND BITE A BOY City Bacteriologist Has Them Under Observation for Rabies. As austin Fitzmorris, plumber’s helper, 3414 School street, was on his way home to lunch at noon Wednesday he was attacked by two bulldogs be- longing to Nelson Jacobson, 3150 Schoo! street. The dogs, which had been Kept in a basement, broke out of it just as the boy was passing the place. They knocked Fitzmorris down and were biting him savagely when the cries of spectatars brought Sergt. Watson and Patrolman Dollard to the scene. The policemen beat the animals off with their because a clubs and drove them back into the basement. Fitzmorris was taken home. Hts right arm was lacerated in five places and his left leg in two.

TO REPRESENT AL ITV'S INTERESTS Members From 30 or More Civic Bodies Will Meet to Discuss Plans,

ADVOCATED AT DINNER

Speakers at “Get Together” Ban- quet Tell of Proposed Central Institution. ee D A committee repfesenting thirty or more business and improvement organ- izations will meet Friday afternoon at the City Club to discuss plans for form- ing a central body, such as was advo- cated at the ‘get-together’ dinner at the City Club Tuesday night. A. 5. Werremeyer is chairman of the commit- tee. Co-operation of the organizations rep- resenting different lines of business and different sections of the city, in the gen- eral work of improvement, was urged by the speakers at the City Club dinner. F. Pr. Crunden was toastmaster and the Business Men's’ League, President O'Reilly of the Real Estate Exchange, H. Sawyer of the Advertising Men’s League, H. W. Barth of the Tenth Ward Improvement Association, L. F. Ped- berg of the Liquor Dealers Benevolent Association, J. H. Gundlach, President of the City Council, and William Marion Reedy. Reedy spoke on ‘'Co-Operation of the Press.’’ Sawyer’s address on ‘‘A Great Centra! Organization” advocated the formation of a body whose voice would speak for the people of the whole city. ‘‘During the negotiations of the Terminal and railroad committees, in reference to the bridge arbitrary,”’ he said, “some of the railroad men said they did not think the committee represented the business interests of St. Louis. If that commit- tee had represented one large general body, the railroad men would have known St. Louis was speaking.”’ HAD HUSBAND CALL, THEN GOT A DEPUTY Wife Tells How.,She Obtained Service on Circus Man, and Gets Divorce. Mrs. Anna Arens told in Judge Kin- sey’s court Tuesday how she inveigled her husband, Henry Arens, so that serv- ice could be obtained in her div suit. Arens, she said, is a circus pe and when the circus was here in June he tel- ephoned he would like to see her. Mrs. Arens’ divorce suit had been filed, but she invited her husband to her home at 2528 Sullivan avenue. Then she told the Sheriff's office and Deputy Sheriff Remmler was at Mrs. Arens’ home when Arens arrived. Arens refused to accept service and the deputy placed the papers on the man’s shoulder. They fell from a window into an alley. Arens abused his wife and the officer and then left the house, according to the testimony. She won a divorce on the ground of desertion.

MAN ALSO IS A. WITNESS

Declares He Was Told Spine Was Curling and Legs Might Have to Be Amputated.

Informations were issued Wednesday by Assistant Circuit qurrgsin Rosskopf against two members of ¢ ‘“‘medical in- stitute,’’ which was nto at its offices in the Fullerton Building a few weeks ago. The informations charge Walter A. Jesinski and Albert La Doulx, who are alleged to have posed as ‘“‘physi- cians,’ with obtaining money by false pretenses. Jasinski, who was known at the “in- ‘stitute’ as “Dr. Tony,’’ is accused of having obtained $62.85 from Mrs. Kath- erine Jbignisaics .of 1420 North Twelfth street. She told Rosskopf that Jasinski ex- amined her by focusing a camera on her and by comparing a drop of blood from her ear with one of the 10 shades of red on a card. He told her that two layers of her stomach were gone, that the only remaining wall had two holes in it, that her liver had almost disappeared and that she had only half as much blood as Was necessary to health, she said. Placed Fee at $72.85. He told her he could cure her by two years’ treatment with imported drugs and that the fee would be $72.85, she de- clared. She paid him all but $10 of the money, she asserted. Experts for the Health Department have examined Mrs. Jbignisaics and found her to be healthy, they sav. The principal witness against Le Doulx is Antonio Regio of 711 North Seventh street. He was told by Le Doulx, he says, that his spine was curling up and that if it were not straightened within two years, his legs would have to be amputated. He of- fered a cure for $60, Regio says, and $55 of the sum was paid down. Interpreter Aids State. There were four other members of the ‘“‘institute,’’ the police say. Specia) Agent Lawrence of the Health Depart- ment got evidence against the concern by inducing Walter Kowalski of 3667 Finney avenue, to turn witness for the State. Kowalski was in interpreter em- ploved by the “‘institute.’”’ J. J. Weitman, who is said by the authorities to have been manager o} the

concern, was arrested at Union Station a few days ago when he was found there with Kowalski. He is accused of having bribed the interpreter to leave town.

That neither Michigan or Cartisie will play here next season was the rathér discouraging information received at St. Louis University Tuesday. Both schools state that their schedules for next fall have been made and the proposed local trip is an impossibility. However, the Michigan authorities express the hope that they will be able to play here in 1913. The Wolverine management is eager to send Yost's eleven to St. Louls, but cannot do it this year because of certain obligations to other schools. Glenn Warner, director of athletics at Carlisle, is opposed to a western junkét and declined the St. Louis U. offer with thanks. However, the real reason for Warner’s refusal is’ probably found ta the fact that St. Louls broke off with the Indians to book Syracuse here for the past two years. Carlisle called hete in 1908 and 1909, but was then dropped by the Billiken eleven. That has, nettled Mr. Warner somewhat. After Big Eastern Game. Aside from Indiana and Illinois, the 4t.

J. O'CONNOR. Roger Bresnahan will pitch his train- ing camp at West Baden, Ind., this spring, with the smallest squad of any major league ball club. The word has gone forth that no more than 27 pur- veyors of the national pastime will be allowed to John Hancock the hotel reg- ister at the Indiana watering place next month, all of which means that Bres- nahan will not be worried with a multi- tude of aspiring, but non-talented ath- letes. In this respect Bresnahan’s job will be much easier than Bob Wallace’s, al- though Bob is tactician for a tall-end club. Wallace has a small army to look over this spring and a Herculean task awaits the canny Scot. However, in only that respect is Bob’s task harder than Roger’s. When the season opens Wallace’s job will be a sinecure compared to Bresna- han’s, all things considered. Anything that Wallace accomplishes will be so much to his credit. If he can whip a fast team of youngsters into line and extricate the Brownies from the base- ment of Kan Johnson’s baseball] plant, he’s liable to prove the town’s hero. On the contrary, if the Cardinals fail te do startling things, Bresnahan may be forced to impersonate an Angora before July 1. This isn’t as it should be, but it is as it is. Expect Cards to Be Contenders. Great things are expected of the Cardinals. Just because they stormed their way into second place at one stage of last year’s campaign and were recognized the country over as the ‘‘sensations,’’ the Cardinals have a crooked, rocky road to travel this sum- mer. The fans expect them to be contend- ers, to be fighting with New York, Phil- adelphia and Pittsburg, whereas Bresna- han will face the barrier next spring .with the same team that wound up in fifth place last season. The club hasn’t been strength- ened as yet. Bresnahan may make a trade or acquire a few youngsters by waiver that may help out put the chances at present seem strong that there’ll be no material change in the Robi- son Field Club this season, It is pretty well understood that only the following play- ers wili report at West Baden, March 1: Catchers—Bresnahan, Bliss, Wingo, Burns and Johnson. Pitchers—Harmon, Geyer, Woodburn, dington, Willis. Infielders—Koney, Huggins, rey, Magee and Smith. Outfielders—Evans, Oakes, “Ellis, Gilhooley, Ten-Million and Willie. Four of these, two pitchers and two out- fielders, will be passed along before the season opens. That will give Bresnahan a squad of about 22 on opening day unless some recruits are picked up in the méan- time. Players to Report on Feb 29. Bresnahan has decided to change the re- porting time from March 1 to Feb. 29. Fur- thermore the players will report at West Paden on the first and be prepared for work the following morning. They will return home March 9 and take up their duties at League Park- As they have done in the past three years, the Cardinals this spring will play soccer fcctball to condition themselves.

A deal for @ 10-round bout between Oliver Kirk of St. Louis and Tommy Dixon of Kansas City, to take place at Kansas City, is in progress, and will probably be Closed shortly. Dixon was incensed at his failure to show better against the recently graduated amateur, while Kirk thinks that next time he can make his victory decisive instead of merely shading his opponent. “I’ve just turned down an offer to meet Bobby Waugh, at New Orleans,” said Kirk to the Post-Dispatch. ‘I ex- pect to hook up with Dixon at Kansas City. I didn’t extend myself Monday night; I have got this lad’s measure, now, Next time we meet I think I will win decisively.

Tuesday night he added an- other victory, defeating Charles Warren of Boston, 530 to 44. The game took 143 innings to play, probably the slowest of the schedule. Excessive safety was responsible for the low average.

FITOR HELD AFTER (LLINGOF WOMAN Editor and Associate Arrested in Lawrence as Result of Mon- day’s Rioting.

NO PARADING ALLOWED

Imprisoned Man Counsels Idle Mill Workers to Make No Demonstration for Him.

LAWRENCE, Mass., Jan. 31.—The ar- rest df Joseph J. Ettor, leader of the mill strikers, and his principal assis- tant, Arturo Giovanniti, editor of a New York Socialist paper, during the night on a charge of being accessories in the murder of Anna Lopezzo, who was shot Monday night while riots were in prog- ress, apparently had little effect in the strike situation early today. Up to 8 a. m. no trouble was reported and the whole city was guarded by militiamen. Col. Sweetser, military forces, would not allow in command of the announced today he the strikers to parade in connection with the funeral of the woman. Yesterday, at the request of Strike Leader Ettor, Col. Sweetser gave rermission to parade, but since the ar- rest of two of the principal leaders in the strike he decided the best policy would be not to allow any great body of strikers to congregate. John Mullen, a Haverhill labor man, conferred with Ettor in the latter's cell in the police station, half an hour early today and afterward stated that Ettor desired the strikers to make no demon- stration as a result of his arrest, and wished them not to attempt to parade at the funeral. Through the night the police station was guarded by a company of infantry to prevent a possible attack, rumors of which followed Ettor’s arrest. Police and militiamen also were stationed in- side the building. Both Ettor and Giovannitti pleaded not guilty in the Police Court today. ELECTRIC SIGN BILL DEFEATED IN COUNCIL Measures Fought by Civic League and Favored by Business Men Lost by One Vote. The overhéad illuminated electric sign bill, favored by many business organ- izations and opposed by the Civic League and similar bodies, was defeat- ed in the Council Tuesday by one vote. Davis, Espenschied, Evers, Fletcher, Haller, Lehmberg and Gundlach voted no on the measure, while Leahy, Paule, Protzmann, Randall, Rower and Caul- field voted aye. An amendment offered by Caulfield to strike out the words “illuminated be- tween the hours of sunset and 11:30 o’clock at night,’’ was defeated. The bill authorized projecting signs, not less than 10 feet apart and not less than nine feet above the sidewalk, to be of a height of not more than five feet for vertical signs and 4 feet for hori- zontal ones. They were to extend not more than eight feet from a building and to approach not nearer than four feet to the curb. Each person obtaining a permit for such a sign was to pay not less than $1 a year, at the rate of 2 cents for each square foot of surface, and was to furnish a $5000 guarantee to cover possible damage by accident.

McKittrick and George H. Allen are the principal stockholders in the Seventh street building, while Mc- Kittrick projected the Railway Ex- change Building. PRIEST WINS SUIT WITH SEVEN JURORS ——-—

[soth Sides Agree to Try Ca:: Rather Than Call New Panel. - There were but seven names left on the jury panel in Judge Millard’s divi- sion of the East St. Louis City Court when James Kassly’s suit for $124 against Rev. Father J. A. Gadikus came up for trial Thursday. Both sides agreed to try the case with seven jurors rather than submit to the delay that the sum- moning of a new panel would cause, and the seven found for Father Gadikus. Four years ago Kassly borrowed $200 from the priest, who is pastor of the Immaculate Conception Lithuanian Catholic Church, and gave Father Gadi- kus his note. Father Gadikus sold the note to Samuel Kokiss, and Kassly re- fused to pay Kokiss, who sued him for the amount. Kassly filed a counter suit for $124 against Father Gadikus, alleging that the priest owed him that amount for hauling freight to the church. “Scratch-No-More.” Monarch Laundry’s Velvet Edge Cuffs same as collars.

By afeondl From the Washington Ba- of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON. Jan. 31.—The mem bers of the Senate Judiciary Commit tee were struck by a ‘Georgia cyclone’ yesterday. It happened in this way: The committee gave a hearing to some fifty members of the W. C. T. U. ad vocating the passage of the bill o Senator Kenyon, providing for inter state regulation of the liquor traffic. Accompanying the delegation, and one of the chief speakers before the commit- tee, was Mrs. Mary Harris Armor of the as she is credited to talk Eastman, Ga., better known as “Georgia Cyclone,” in her State with the ability faster than any other human being. _ Mrs. Armor said what she had to say a rapidly that the committee stenogra- They did pilin could not follow her. their best, but were beaten in the race.

I don’t want to hurt any- body’s feelings, but I’m here to talk common sense and I haven't any time to waste on you all. “Speaking of this bill,’ she launched forth,. “I’m no lawyer, but I've read law and anyone who votes against this bill because of alleged unconsiitutton- ality, is a mighty poor lawyer. Why, wed folk make laws that make it im- e to ship rotten eggs in to Geor- : ; why not make a law to prevent the shipment of a brain poison into the State. If the United States can protect dGogs and terrapin, then I want to know why it can’t protect people from alco- hol.” ’ Mrs. Armor then stopped, but said she would conclude her remarks against the “booze fighters’’ later. "Mrs. Lilliam M. N. Stevens of Port- nd, Me., president of the W. C. T. U., | ted the passage of the bill. ‘‘We are asking for protection against the home’s greatest enemy,” she said. Miss Ellen M.

STRAuSS PORTRAIT MISS VIRGINIA ELLIOT Those Asked to Make Selection Invariably Name Miss Tilton and Miss Valle. HO are the 10 most beautiful girls in St. Louis society? New York's ‘10 most beautiful’’ society maidens met Princess Patricia a few days ago at a reception given by Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson. Chicago, which was not visited by Princess Pat and her papa, the Duke of its 10 pre-eminent beauties anyway. The list it finally got was compiled by Mrs. Pauline Palmer, a painter, and was one not of girls, but of the ‘10 most beau- tiful women,”’ miss. Mrs. Potter Palmer and Mrs. Hobert Chatfield-Taylor were included. St. Louis does not have to invade the ranks of its dowagers in the se arch for beauty. It has so many beautiful young women that the only difficulty is to make a choice among them. This was the declaration of St. Louis soci: ‘ty women and artists whom the Post-Dis- patch Wednesday asked to name their se.ections for a St. Louis list of 10 to correspond to that made in New York. dé COULD much-more easily make a list of 25 ‘most beautiful’ St Louls young women than a list of 10,’’ declared Mrs. rodt. “There are more beautiful girls in st Louis than in any city I ever saw.” Dawson Watson, painter. ‘It impossible tO choose 10."’ Edward Mallinck- said Would be But nearly every person interviewed mentioned, Imost off-hand, the names of two, three or a half-dozen Society girls as types of St. Louis beauty. These names were noted, and those most fre- quently mentioned were compiled by the Post-Dispatch into a list of 10. Of these 10 almost every member of the informal] jury mentioned the names of Misses Esther Tilton and Isabel Valle.

SHOOTS GIRL WIFE, | SFIZES BABY. FIRES HOUSE; CAPTURED Who Deserted Bride Wounds Her as She Holds Child He Never Had Seen.

IS CAUGHT AFTER A DUEL Picks Up Infant, Hidden in ‘Box, and Places Boy Between Him and Police.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 31.—After a brief courtship, Lillian Johnson, one of the most popular girls of Coilinsville, Conn., was married a year ago to John M. IXenefick, formerly of Hartford. For several months the couple were hapfy. Then the man deserted his bride. Heart- broken, she went back to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Johnson, whose home was one of the finest in Collins- ville. Just before Christmas a boy was born to Mrs. Kenefick. It was thougnt this might bring Kenefick back to his wife, but apparently it only steeled nim the more against her: The slight wound- ed the mother, who is only 19. Yesterday afternoon Kenefick went to the house, burst in a.barricaded door, shot his wife twice, inflicting serious in- fired four bullets at his mother- juries, in-law and one at his wife’s 16-vear-old sister. Then he seized his son, wh» had been hidden in a paper box, ran to the front yard and there, with the infant ‘ving in the snow almost. between. him and the police, engaged in a revolver battle that lasted 15 minutes. Chief Tells of Fight. This graphie story Was told by Chief of Police A, H. Bushing of Collinsville: “Kenefick peered into the sitting room windows till he saw his wife. He beck- oned for her to open the door. She paid no attention to him. He burst the door open. He was in a frenzy as he confronted his wife. As he Saw the child at her ‘breast he gasped. It was the first glimpse he had had of his son. ‘‘He shouted a curse, pulled a revolver from his pocket and fired a shot into the young, woman’s arm. She swung around and he fired. again. The bullet struck Mrs. Kenefick in the back of the neck, circled her throat and lodged just beneath he> chin. She _ toppled _ over, clasping the baby more firmly in her arms. “Kenefick started for the door, and as he had his hand on the knob, Mrs. Johnson entered the room. Kenefick called at her to stand back, but Mrs. Johnson did not heed him. Kenefick fired four shots at his mother-in-law, none of them hit her. Kenefick was edging toward the door when his wife's 16-year-old sister entered the room. Bullet Misses the Girl. “Mrs. Johuson had lifted Mrs. Kene- fick in her arms and carried her to a sofa, the baby rolling to the floor from his unconscious mother’s arms. Miss Johnson bent down to take the baby. Kenefick told the girl not to dare to touch his son and began to reload the revolver. Miss Johnson = shoved him aside, caught up the infant and darted from the room. As she went through the doorway Kenefick fired, the bullet imbedding itself in the wainscoting. “Kenefick was furious at his failure and turned toward his wounded wife. Mrs. Johnson had fled from the room. Kenefick muttered something about go- ing to shoot his wife again. not so that she would die quickly, but by degrees. While he glared at her he raised the revolver, but changed his mind and ran out of the room by the door through which Miss Johnson had fled. “The girl had run to the second floor and placed the baby in a cardboard box, leaving the cover open at one end so the child would not be smothered. Then she hid the infant in a closet and ran down the back stairs. Kenefick searched the whole house before he found the baby. Fires the House; Is Captured. “Then he set fire to the house. At this time some of my officers and I had been notified. We went to the house just as Kenefick came out. He opened fire on us. Then putting the baby in the snow, he got behind a tree, the in- fant 10 feet away from him. About fifty shots were fired. As we closed on Ken- efick he put his revolver to his. head and pulled the trigger, but his last cart- ridge had been fired.”’

WHEN HIS VOIGE GHANGED “My 15-year-old son,” says Mrs. I. Cc. Sherman, whose home is in Brook- lyn, “caught a bad cold just when his voice was changing and could not get rid of it for about a year. Vino] was the only medicine thé¢t diq him any good and it was just what he needed to drive his cough away and build up his strength.” If he had taken Vinol sooner, he would have been spared a whole lot of annoyance and suffering. Bronchitis—cough is gimply a sign of bodily weakness. When you build up the bodily strength and enrich the blood with Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron preparation with- out oil, the cough is bound to dis- appear. It is really the only natural and right way to get rid of these bron- chial coughs that hang on so long. In all weakened and run-down con- ditions of the body, whether in men, women or children, Vinol is exactly what is needed to Dring back strength. We guarantee to give back your money if Vinol does not help you. Chester Kent & Co., Chemists.

in St. Louis Teach Crime

‘One Warrant Will Stor} of Poolrooms Result: in Declaration That cial Inquiry Wil Fo low. Be Issued anc Of i-

Supt. Major of the Industrial School Wednesday took folir inmates of the in- stitution to Assistant Prosecuting Attor- ney Wilson’s office in the Four Courts. They told Wilson a story of tutelage in crime which, the prosecutor said, will cause the immediate issuance of a war- rant against one man, and which will probably cause an official investigation with a view to the arrest of other men on criminal charges, The boys declared that there are in St. Louis schools of crime, where youths are taught to pick a pocket, steal a chicken | or rob a drunken man. The investigation revealed these con- ditions as told by the boys: These breeding’ places of youthful iniquity are what are known by the police as “Fly- by-Night” pool halls, which derive their principal support from minors and youths. One or two are more or less garish downtown places. But the most are poorly lighted, poorly furnished, dingy, ill ventilated, stuffy little rooms in the congested tenement districts. They are seen at their worst along towards evening, when the sickly look- ing jamps rather illuminate the clouds of cigarette smoke than light the room. Newsboys and other lads gather around tle cheap tables and gamble their nick- els and dimes recklessly as long as the money lasts. ° Always Can Get Drinks. The spectators shout out ribald jests and obscene stories, the language be- coming all the wilder as here and there a boy is fired by the cheap whisky or beer he can always get in the place— if he nas the price. Mingling with the crowd is the ever-present “house man,” to rack up the balls, collect the money. and to aick out the one who has loafed around too long without spending anything. It is among these and the managers that the true Fagins are to be found, according to information collected in the investigation. The Fagins are ready to “put wise’ a new boy on how to rob a drunken man, going through his pockets and even turning him over with- out awaking him—‘‘rolling’’ him, as the process is called. By precept they in- culeate the sentiment that the boy who would “snitch’’ on another for wrong- doing is everything that fs vile, while the boy who can “‘put something over” that is crooked is a sort of hero. The influence some of these places have over the unfortunate lads is re- markable, Major has found. Many boys who have yielded apparently to the good influences of the Industrial School and give promise of leading respectable lives, go straight to the pool halis from the school. Before long they come straight back from the pool] hall to the institution. Runaway Boys at Pool Hall, Two boys who ran away from the school in their stocking feet during re- cent near-zero weather went directly to a pool hall and there were recaptured. Most of these dives are open until late in the night, and some all night, and boys sleep in them. Boys who get drunk in them are dragged into some hidden ‘sleep it off.’’ ‘Philip Goldberg, 15 years old; John Maddox, 15; Joe Finnan, 14, and Abe Raker. 14, all newsboys now in the In- dustrial School, told Assistant Prosecut- ing Attorney Wilson of the lawlessness in some of these places. All of the boys bragged of “rolling’’ drunks, and all but one admitted that he had been intoxicat- ed in the dives. Goldberg said he was in the habit of frequenting a pool hall in the neigh- borhood of Carr Park. corner to drunk there frequently. downtown dry goods store, he continued, collected on his route. him.

When the boys couldn't get any money to spend for pool any other way they would go out into the park, find a drunkard asleep on a bench and rob ing openly when they had made a good haul. Everything was merry in the pool hall when a boy had money, but there was no room for him very long after he had gone broke.

This same proprietor, the boy added, volver often to intimidate his boisterous clients and is fond of boasting that their little thefts are insignificant besides some he has committed, always con- cluding with the remark that he is the ‘‘best crook in the city.’’ Maddox and Baker told.of another similar pool hall in the heart of the busiest part of downtown, This place has touts, according to their story, to entice newsboys in and especially to see that new boys learn the way there. Told How to Rob, In this place drinks are sérved, Mad- dox relates, and many boys, himself in- cluded, have been intoxicated there. As in the other places the youthful cus- tomers who go broke are tipped off to an easy way to get a little change. This ‘easy way” is to find a drunken man, get him into an alley or dark corner of the street, and rob him. “One night about a year ago,”’ the boy went on, “an insurance man came in and he was drunk. I waited until he was asleep and went through his pock- ets, taking $100. “I gave $24 of this to one of the men who runs the hall. Then a lot of us boys got together and all got drunk. I got soused to the eyebrows and went to sleep. When I woke up they had even taken my good clothes off of me, giving me some old Mes. I didn’t have a jitney in my pockets.” Baker said he drank beer and whis- ky in this same place many times and that he had “‘rolled’’ drunks time after time—that some 20 or 30 times the same man to whom Maddox said he had given the $24, had told him to hustle out on the street and get some coin. lie was introduced to the place by two young men he subsequently found were touts.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau cf the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 31.—A dream fol- lowed by revelations has aided the fam- ily of John Wiedenroth to take the first step from a houseboat home to a Geor- gia estate, to which Mrs. Wiedenroth has been told she is heir. The house- boat. the May, has been moored for Island Creek, the lower used for a work shop rnd Mrs. Wiedenroth dreamed early last week that her father, who fought for Confederacy, appeared to her to tell property he had bought and which should be hers. In the morning she told her husband and at his suggestion she visited a fortune teller. When her palm had been crossed with silver Mrs. Aimee Smith went into a trance. “IT see,’ said :the: medium, ‘bountiful rolling acres. On some of them housés are built—public buildings.

In it you will find the proof.” Mrs. Wiedenroth recognized the wom- an referred to as her mother. To- gether they went through the house and found the trunk, which had aot been touched in years. Among some papers Mrs. Wiedenroth found a deed for 250. acres of land, part of the site of Columbus, Ga., a thriving city. The document recorded the purchage of thie tract by C. H. F.

' 7 f go Sar i y) ~~ MEASURE THE SOOTFALL. At last London is vindicated of being the smokiest city in the world, which it has been termed by Americans, accustomed to the sunny climate of the greater part of this hemisphere. Its vindication is due to the Lancet, which has caused the sootfall to be measured by a roof gauge, and reports it to be slightly in excess: of one ton per acre per year. A similar measure- ment on Michigan boulevard, Chicago's only fashionable downtown thoroughfare, showed the deposit to be five tons per acre per year. When we reflect that the soot on a square mile of downtown Chicago would each year make a pile 1000 feet long, 25 feet wide and 25 feet high, the seriousness of the soot proposition is more easily grasped. The datiage done to build- ings, wearing apparel, and human lungs is be- yond estimate. | This pile of soot is unburned carbon, a loss to coal consumers, 3200 tons to the Chicago square mile. It contains approximately 250 tons of ammonia, 320 tons of sulphates and 125 tons of chlorine, all waste, not to speak of being injurt- ous to health and property. In such lavish ex- travagance does Chicago establish its title to out- rank London as the Smokiest of the Smoky. The city,of St. Louis should promptly install accurate apparatus by which the soot deposit an be measured at regular intervals, thus pro- viding an indisputable witness to the progress made in banishing what remains of smoke in the everyday atmosphere of St.Louis.

re | fers from the last man in whom the country had chology with a but. Senator Hoar’s memoirs say that Gen. Grant, feeling his military reputation secure, was really rather indifferent about his first and second nominations for President. But he wanted the third nomination the professional politicians tried to get for him. He had found life at Galena and elsewhere dull. The thought of moving back into the White House was agree- able to members of his family. COL. WATTERSON’S TEMPEST. : | “Mark now, how plain a tale will put you down.” , In the flood of peevish garrulity with which Col. Watterson has overwhelmed himself and bespattered the continent is the assertion that while “Gov. Wilson was receiving popular ap- plause because of the sacrifice of private friend- ship to public duty he was groveling at Harvey’s feet after pardon for his shameless, heartless treatment, etc.” Then he adds: If he possesses a spark of honorable sen- sibility he will at once demand and require the publication of the abject letters he wrote to Harvey when he was made to understand and realize that he must square the account of ingratitude or take the consequences. By joint consent of Gov. Wilson and Col. Har- vey the letters that passed between them con- cerning the Manhattan Club incident have been made public. Here is the Wilson grovel: A long time after the interview with you and Marse Henry at the Manhattan Club it came over me that when (at the close of the interview) you asked me that question about the weekly, I answered it simply as a matter of fact and of business, and said never a word of my sincere gratitude to you for all your generous support, or of my hope that it might: be continued. Forgive me and forget my manners, Replying that no personal issue could arise between him and the Governor, Col. Harvey wrote: The real point at the time of our interview was, aS you aptly put it, one simply “of fact and of business. ad ° td The ample apology which Gov. Wilson subse- quently made to Col. Harvey for the uninten- tional offense to a personal friend, caused by his blunt answer to a direct question, was not base, but manly and honorable. It fills the measure of the gentleman of which Col. Watterson talks so eloquently. Unless Col. Watterson’s other “proofs” which are too sacred for publicity and can only be ex- hibited to a court of honor better sustain his charges than these letters, he would better take them with him to his “winter home in Florida beyond the reach even of the telegraph,” where he says he is going to ease the tempest of a mind o’erwrought. ‘¢ By the way, what has this personal controversy to do with Gov. Wilson’s presidential candi- dacy? The only incident of vital importance in that connection was Col. Watterson’s failure to get his friend Mr. Ryan into the Wilson band wagon. == — — i s09 If the Government breaks up the Aluminum Trust, we shall be able to buy another frying pan to replace the Steel Trust article worn out last December.

WILL IT* PROMOTE BUSINESS? The people of St. Louis are little interested in the effect on the fortunes of Republican party leaders of the apparent realignment of forces at the city hall. The chief concern of St. Louisans is the promotion of public business. If the reconciliation of Mayor Kreismann and the Kiel-Stifel faction, with ex-Boss Howe cavort- ing on the Roosevelt broncho outside the camp, does not. bring prompt action on the free bridge approaches and other municipal work, the new combine will profit nothing—not even the party or any of its leaders, = = rr

Suggested Routing Improvements. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I notice complaints in regard to the service on the Union avenue car line, which is considered the worst in the city. I would suggest that if the United Railways would extend the line down Calvary avenue to Broadway, instead of running out Florissant avenue, allowing the Bellefontaine line to extend out to the city limits on Florissant avenue, they would open a gateway to North St. louis, whereas, as matters are now, a person living in the West End, working on North Broad- way anywhere, must go all the way down town and then back again up north, By running the Union avenue line from Broadway on the north to the Skinker road and McCausland on the south, people living in North St. Louis would have a chance to visit Forest Park in the summertime, whereas they now must go practically around the moon if they wish to get there. Another ad- vantage it would have would be to open up the section north of Natural Bridge road for settle- ment, by giving the factory workers a chance to transfer from Broadway directly home.

Police Protection Needed. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, As one interested in the welfare of young wom- en whose circumstances compel them to earn their own living I ask, “‘Why is there not more police protection in the neighborhood of Jeffer- son, Leffingwell, Olive and Franklin avenues?” It is generally: Known that this is a part of the city needing attention, yet seldom, if ,ever, will you meet an officer of the law within it. At Beaumont and Locust is an exchange of the Bell Telephone Co. where a number of young girls are employed; their hours are such that it necessitates them going and coming to and from there from 7 a. m. in the morning until 10 p. m. night. My daughter, who is employed there, has numberless times, I might say daily, been in- sulted by low, cowardly brutes, who either hurled some instlting remark at her, followed her or used some other means of showing of what a low character they were.

One of thembdelieves in com- pulsory outdoor exercise, and the other is advocating licensed after-dinner speakers, The man who wants an export duty on American dowries explained his plan (o the other cranks yesterday afternoon. He quoted figures to prove that this economy would in the past 10 years have paid the entire expense of the United States Navy. The suffragettes practiced violence this morning. One of them hit a win- dow target at 30 yards, two stones in three. The man who is trying to Suppress picture shows was visited yesterday by his wife and daughter on their way home from the picture show. The prohibitionist will hold a rally with himself on Friday night. The triat marriage man got over it, and was discharged on Monday. : The woman who wants to have sepa- rate street cars for women and men has been put in the dungeon for Sending out tracts. The Mormon proselvter had an alter- cation yesterday with the man who wants the works of Horace Fletcher made text books in the public schools, and they were both put in the guard- house.

Stopes Stops Dandruff and Restores Gray or — THE JARR FAMILY Mr. Jarr Starts a Revolution but Is Foiled

Written for the R. JARR was mad all the way through. Time had been when coming home at such an hour as this, he pussy-footed up the stairs and seeped stealthily through the doorways in the dark. But now he trod up the stairs with such emphasis that other tenants in the flat thought it was someone mov- ing a piano at midnight. Mr. Jarr jammed in his night key, banged open the door, turned on the light and glow- ered at Mrs. Jarr abed. That lady sat upright and regarded him. ‘Yes, I’m late!’ began Mr. Jarr. ‘‘No, I haven’t been drinking—that is, not much! Yes, I’m mad! No, I won't talk quietly! I’m not your dear, and don't you try to spread the salve to me any more!” snorted Mr. Jarr. Mrs. Jarr gathered from this that Mr. Jarr did not desire to be placated by flattery. ‘Now, don’t be so cross just because | I asked you to take poor Gertrude to a dance. You are always preaching so- cialism and true democracy. “Any little thing I asked you to do you fly into a rage and abuse me! I’m ‘sure I have it hard enough, work- ing as I do— Mrs. Stryver says there's work enough in this flat for three giris. and she says I'm a fool to slave as I do with one girl. And do I have time to be a suffragette? Do I get anywhere” Do you take me to a dance, although you put on your evening clothes and wear your silk hat to take our servant? Suppose we had a butler and [I went to the Lady Carpet Layers, or what- ever ball it is, would you like it?” Mr. Jarr saw that Mrs. Jarr was beating him to the Isle of Self-Pity and Indignation. He saw that in another moment HE would be on the defensive. “Stop!”” he bellowed. ‘“‘Never mind the tearful recital of the wrongs you endure at the hands of the man who has blighted your Hfe with the sordid sur- roundings in which his poverty has placed you!”’ ‘“But’—— began Mrs. Jarr. “But nothing!’’ tnterrupted he. “T’ll do the butting. I'm the goat! Right here is where I’m going to read ‘The Married Man’s Declaration of Inde- pendence!’ ”’ Mrs. Jarr gazed at him tn amazement. ‘Listen!’ he continued. “You are never to treat me with silence just be-
