CLEVELAND, March 26.—George E. Harbaugh, president of a big oil com- pany, has filed suit for divorce against Catherine Trench-Harbaugh. Neglect is charged. Louis F. Hart, also a rich man, is @ prospective bridegroom of the woman. He says there will be no contest by Mrs. Harbaugh. Harbaugh, it is said, found his wife end Hart last Tuesday in an automo- bile, which was speeding out the Rocke- feller boulevard. The story goes that he gave chase, declared his intention of suing for a divorce, and. demanded Hart’s promise to marry the woman im- mediately after the issuance of the de- cree. Hart replied, say those who pretend to know that there was no need of insistance, as he would be de- lighted to marry her. The suit comes before the surprise has subsided over the marriage of Harbaugh and Miss Trench last October, follow- ing close on a divorce granted to the first Mrs. Harbaugh, in a suit in which Miss Trench was named as corespond- ent. It then was chareed that Har- baugh had given many presents to Miss Trench, including a $3000 cottage.

Doctor Supplies Quart to Infant ‘+ He Was Called to Treat. CHICAGO, Mareh %—Dr. Audley Sanders gave up a quart of his blood to save the five-day-old infant of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Adelson whom he had been called to treat.

Dr. Lespinasse opened an artery in Dr. Sanders’ arm and made a connection with an artery in the baby's neck by the use of a magnesium ring. The flow lasted for 2) minutes and the pale features of the infant took on a glowing red color. New Mexico Deadlock Holds. SANTA FE, N.

LAWN IS DUG UP

1900 GEMS FOUND IN A SEWER PIPE Chamois Bag, Dropped in Basin, Recovered With Jewels Safe, Though It Was Open.

ARTICLES LOST SATURDAY Crowd Attracted by Search for Mrs. Louis Klein’s Property on Julian Avenue.

Three men, digging up the front lawn of the Le Roy Apartments, 5633 Julian avenue, Tuesday morning, were the cen- ter of curious inquiry. Some of the neighbors suggested that oil or a mineral deposit was being sought; others that buried gold was the object of the quest. The latter sur- mise proved to be in part true, but it was learned that the sodded lawn was supposed to conceal not only gold, but diamonds. Mrs. Louis Klein, one of the dwellers in the apartments, watched the men at their digging and told other women that three articles of diamond jewelry which she valued at $1500, were believed to be in a sewer pipe toward which they were torking. Appeal Sent to City Hall. A chamois skin bag, containing the jewelry, was dropped accidentally Sat- urday by Mrs. Klein into a basin i the bathroom connecting with the sewer. After ineffectual attempts to recover it from within the house, an appeal was made to the Sewer Department, and three laborers with shovels were sent to dig up the yard. When the laborers uncovered the pipe and made ready to open it, there was an anxious moment for Mrs. Klein and the spectators. Then one of the men shouted: “‘We’ve got it,’”’ and a moment later a drenched bag containing the dia- monds, was displayed. Although the bag was half open, none of the contents had been lost. Jewels’ Betrothal Gifts. Mrs. Klein told a Post-Dispatch re- porter Tuesday afternoon that the articles of jewelry were engagement presents from her husband, who is in the millinery business. One was a solitaire engagement ring, valued at $400, another a la _ valliere of pearls and diamonds, valued at $300, and the third a diamond sunburst which she considered worth $800, “I was determined not to lose them,”’ she said, ‘‘and I have been so worried that I could hardly sleep for the last pegee | nights. Saturday night I didn’t sleS at all. When the men were dig- ging [ couldn’t keep away from them, not because [ distrusted them in any way, but because of my anxiety to know whether my jewels were really lost.”’ The pipe, at the spot where the jewels were recovered, is nearly six feet below the sidewalk level. ‘RAT CATCHER’ SOUGHT AS BAD CHECK PASSER Paper Signed ‘‘Edward A. Faust”’ Cashed by Butcher and Others Complain. A man of professional bearing. whose card proclaimed him ‘‘A. Rohr, cham- pion rat catcher of the Mississippi Val- ley,’’ is being sought by the police on a charge of passing worthless checks. “Rohr,” after contracting to catch all the rats in Henry Belz’s butcher shop at 2037 Gravois avenue, handed Belz a $25 check signed ‘‘Edward A. Faust.” Belz cashed it, but the bank said it was forged. Similar complaints against the rat catcher have been made by Sam Bings, a confectioner at 713 North King's high- way, and Stephen Speres, a cashier of Duffy’s restaurant at 113 North Sixth street.

The inspectors had heard the water running and investigated. They cut the chain, shut the water off from the house and split the placard So as to leave only the caution about the carpets. The first half of the sign they took to Assessor and Collector of Water Rates Burton, with a full report of the case. way as Must See Wall. When the manager of the rooming house called Burton up to find when the water would be turned on again, Burton replied the matter was out of his hands. He had referred it to Com- missioner Wall and intimated that the manager would have to make peace with Wall before there would be any more city water in the house. Tuesday Burton received a check for $776 from the owner of a business house on Olive street, which hadn't had a meter or paid any assessment for 1a year.

Miller said that the trust agreement between E. G. Lewis and the People’s Savings and Trust Co. was entered into Dec. 13, 1910. He said the stocks of the va- rious concerns put into the debenture fund were subject to all loans or debts of the various concerns. The trust agreement was subject to the approval of the People’s Savings and Trust Co. Miller said that the agreement stipu- lated that the People’s Savings and Trust Co. as trustees of the debenture fund should not control nor administer the fund, nor execute any trust with- out agreement with Lewis. The deben- ture holders were not notified, he said, at the time of the disagreement. On redirect examination Tuesday L. B. Tebbets testified that the entire indebt- edness of the Lewis corporations, which it was proposed to handle through the debenture scheme, was $4,172,149.73. Both Tebbetts and Miller testified that the debenture plan was a creation of Lewis. The total amount of Success Publish- ing Co. stock deposited with the deben- ture fund was $82,500, Miller testified. The company failed, he said. Of the preferred stock of the Lewis Publishing Co. $256,735 was put up, and of the com- mon stock, $418,366. That Lewis made a practice of using Tebbetts’ name in his advertisements Tebbetts admitted under cross-examina- tion Monday afternoon by Attorney Cullen. He insisted, however, that he had not given his permission for the use of his name in the advertisement entitled ‘“‘The Solution,” which first an- nounced Lewis’ plan of issuing deben- tures to refund his indebtedness. Tebbetts said that the Lewis corpora- tions were in chronic condition of hard financial straits, but said he was led by Lewis to believe that prospects were bright for the future.

The Day in Congress]: SIEDLLOSES HIS. FIGHT 10 OBTAIN ~ CHANGE OF VENUE Defense Plans Disqualify Judge Dearing—tTrial to Proceed.

to

The fight of attorneys of Joseph Sei- del, accused jointly with Mrs. Anna Hunning of the murder of the woman’s husband, Martin Hunning, for a change of venue was continued before Judge Dearing at Hillsporo, Tuesday. Several witnesses were called to teatify to preju- dice in the county against the defend- ants. County Judge James H. Winter, in response to a question by an attorney, admitted he had once said, speaking of the Hunning case, ‘‘We ought to have un hanging in Jefferson Ceunty to put it back upon the map.”’ He made this re- mark in Jefferson City, he said, when he first heard of the Hunning murder. Prosecutor Miller said he felt confident the motion for a change of venue would be overruled. He said he believed Sei- del could get as fair a trial in Jefferson County as anywhere else. In the fight for a change of venue Monday Judson Pounds, a farmer, told the Court that residents of Sugar Creek Valley had held a mock trial and found Joseph Seidel guilty of the murder of Martin Hunning. This was urged by the attorneys for the defense as proof an impartial jury could not be found in Jefferson County to try the accused man. 1 Prosecutor Miller anticipated the fight for a change of venue and had _ ar- ranged for witnesses to be subpenaed to show there is no such prejudice against Seidel. The little courtroom was packed when Mrs. Hunning and Seidel were brought in for arraignment. Neither prisoner appeared greatly interested in the crowd. Both pleaded not guilty and their attorneys asked that they be tried separately. When permission to do so was grant- ed, Prosecutor Miller elected to try Sei- del] first. Then the motion for a change oi venue was filed.

MEETING IN AN UPROAR Fairbanks, Watson and New on Taft List, Beveridge and Landis on the Other.

By Associated Press. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 26.—The Indiana Republican convention today adopted a resolution instructing the States’ four delegates-at-large to the national convention to vote for the re- nomination of President Taft. National Committeeman Harry S. New, former Vice-President Charles W. Fairbanks, James E. Watson and Joseph D. Oliver were eleceted delegates. The Taft faction had an apparent ma- jority of 105 over the supporters of Col. Roosevelt, who withdrew to the rear of the hall, held another convention and named Roosevelt delegates-at-large. They are: Senator A, J. Beveridge, Fred Landis, Edwin M. Lee and Charles H. Campbell. Both factions claims theirs is the only legal convention. Taft and “Teddy” Cheered. A storm of shouts of ‘“‘Taft’’ and ‘‘Ted- dy’’ broke when State Senator William R. Wood of Lafayette, who first called the convention to order, declared he did not believe the ‘“‘people of this country will condemn the just President, William Howard Taft.’’ Wood was permitted to say only a few words when his voice was drowned by shouts of “Roosevelt,” and ‘‘Keep still, Wood.’’ Horace Stillwell of Anderson, a Roose- velt man, took the chair and pleaded for a hearing for Wood, as temporary chairman. aR . - i ” >. * : J ok

WANTS BODY TO KEEP UP INQUIRY} Manufacturing Cost in Amer- ica and Abroad Compared and Differences in Selling Arrangement Are Set Forth in Detail. iy Associated Press, WASHINGTON, March 2%.—Presiden* Taft today transmitted to Congress the Tariff Board’s report on the cotton schedule, with the recommendation that that section of the tariff law be taken up with a view to revision and reduc- tions in the rates of duty. The President advises Congress that the board’s investigations have shown that the duties on some cotton yarns 15 two and three times in excess of the difference of the cost of production in the United States and abroad. The du- Wes imposed because of finishing proc- esses are in excess of the difference in the extra cost of finishing and are iften in excess of the total domestic cost of finishing. Prices paid by consumers in the United States are higher than abroad, even when prices received by manufacturers 1 both places are the same This ts aid to be due to the higher cost of dis- ribution here, Plain cloths are as cheap 'ore as anywhere, but on fancy fabrics the duties are in excess of thé differ- enee of cost, and in many cases the ‘itles are greater than the conversion sts in the mills of the United State3. Wants More Cash for Board. resident Taft asks a deficiency ap- ovopriation of $60,000 for the board to ontinue its work, in April, May and _ June, and urges Congress to continue _ further the life of the board that k : may prosecute investigations of the met- READ THIS. al, leather, chemical and sugar sched- les which the President has directed, The President’s message is a com- prehensive summary of the board's find- ings. As in its report on the woolen schedule and the pulp and paper sched- ule, the board makes no recommenda- tions, and suggests no duties in its re- view of the compley subject. The President says he bases his rec- ommendations on the declaration of the platform on which he was elected— “that a reasonable protective tariff should be adjusted to the difference in cost of production at home and abroad,”’ “The report of the board shows the _ difficulty of stating in general terms, ' differences in costs of production for a great variety of cotton manufactures,”’ the President wrote, The differences vary widely, according to the character of the particular fabric. Difference in Spinning Cost. “The report shows that the cost of spinning cotton yarn in this country is greater than in the leading competing countries. In the case of ordinary warp and filling yarns, forming the bulk of the production of the domestic industry, the foreign cost of turning cotton into yarn is shown to be about 70 per cent of the domestic cost. “The duty on these yarns is two or three times in excess of the diference in cost of production. On some highly specialized yarns and on yarns of the highest count—that is, of greatest fine- nesa—the: duty in some cases about equalizes the difference in ecodnvension vosts. “In many cases, however, on the hizgh- cr g:ades of yarn which are produced in this country, the duty is in excess of the difference in the cost of produc- ticn, though by a much less amount than in the case of ordinary warp and filling yarns. “The difference in the cost of weaving yarns into cloth as between this country and its chief competitor varies accord- ing to the character of the fabric. In the case of many cloths of plain weave ihe American cost of weaving seems to be lower than the foreign cost du t» the greater number of looms tended per weaver tn this country. This re- fuces the labor cost per yard despite the higher earning of the American weaver. How Price “This conclusion Is Increased. is further substan ‘lated by the fact that cloths of this deseription are by the domestic nianufacturer in this country at prices as low as those charged by the foreicn manufacturer in his own country. In proportion, however, as the fabric he- ci mes more complicated (and therefore mrmits ef fewer looms per weaver) the American cost of production increaers. In the case of most fancy fabrics of complicated weave, the cost of weaving solhd is higher in this country, but on gurn fabrics the present duties are in excess ‘of any difference in cost, and tn many “ases are in excess of the total con- version costs in this country. ‘The report further shows that in tie case Of a large variety of fabrics which A A ah te ta eee ate tenet

permit of the use of many looms per weaver the prices at which goods are scld by the American manufacturer are as low as the prices charged by the foreign manufacturer in his own market, and in many cases lower. ‘‘Under the existing system of distri- bution, a slight reduction of duties would, in some cases, materially re- duce the price to the consumer, while in other cases a large reduction of the duties would not change the price to the American consumer at ali.” In the cost of raw material, the ® ard reports, there is practically no ad- Vantage possessed by either country. Conmiparing all of the yarns selected by the board as samples, the I:nglish lator cost was found if be on an average cf practically seven-eighths of the Amer- ican in two mills selected Enforced Limit en Inquiry. It was not possible for the board, with the time and money at its disposal, to investigate each of the items of the cotton schedule, and its werk was con- fined to yarns, threads, textile funrics and such specialties as tapestries. plush, hosiery, table damask and the like. Figures are presented to show that al- though labor costs in the cottou indus- try are in many cases lower in tie United States than in England, yet the actual hourly earnings in this country are, in most of the principal occupations, much greater. The conclusion is that on many plain fabrics the cost of pro- duction in this country is not greater. The report gives some figures show- ing the difference in cost of cotton fab- ries at the mill and the cost to the con- sumer, Cloth sold at the mill at $3 or 9 cents a yard reached the consuner at 15 cents a yard. Some examples are ziven. ‘In 1908 a quilt sold at the mill for 62% cents was sold to the consumer at $1. In 1910 the mill increased the price to 75 cents and the price to the con- sumer went up to $1.50.’’ The board argues, however, that in some cases a reduction in the mill price might have no reduction for the con- sumer. A study of comparative statis- tics seems to show that the English consumer buys cheaper, because there is less profit between the mill man and the retailer. In determining costs the board did not take into consideration the item of in- terest upon investments, but the cost figures do allow for depreciation. Wide Variation Shown, Taking all the mills. covered by the investigation in each country, there were wider variations in the American costs secured than in the English cofts, due partly to the fact that the English mills were all in the Manchester district, where wages and other conditions are well standardized, while the American costs were taken from mills covering a much wider area, with much greater differences in labor and other condi- tions. Another reason for the wider variation in American costs is that the English mills for which figures are ob- tained are all of a modern and efficient type, while some of the American mills included were old and of low efficiency. Discussing duties in their relation to eost of Weaving and finishing the re- port says: “The ratio of the duty to the conversion cost bears little relation to the ratio of the duty to the foreign market value. Thus in some cases, duties which are less than 30 per cent advalorem will be one and a half times the total Ameri- can conversion cost while in other cases, duties of nearly 50 per cent ad- valorem will be only three-fourths of the American conversion costs. In the greater number of cases, the duties are greater than the total domestic costs of spinning and weaving. Margins Greater in America. “One of the most interesting results of the investigation is to be found in the facts included in the report re- garding the different methods of distri- bution in the two countries and the greater margin which exists between the prices at which the manufacturer sells his goods and the price at which the consumer buys them in this country as compared with similar prices in En- giand. The relation of the tariff to the prices paid by consumers can only be understood by fully comprehending the significance in American trade of the principles of ‘set prices.’ ”’ The summary of the report is a large pamphiet and the full report probably will fill two to four volumes. The woo: report filled four. It probably will be ordered printed by Congress. ring on credit et Lotus hoe thet smond Govermment Deficit Cut.

SHE FORGAVE HIM ONCE He Pleaded That He Was Lonely While She Was Away, She Says.

Mrs. Ida Glen Goergen, who Dec. 8, trailed her husband, Philip C. Goergen, to 1502 Olive street, where she confront- ed him in the presence of Mrs. Julia Shrive, obtained a divorce in Judge Al- len’s court Monday. The diverce was granted on evidence that Goergen plead- ed guilty in the Court of Criminal Cor- rection to a charge made against him and Mrs. Shrive by his wife. Goergen was a former medical student and athlete at St. Louis University. Mrs. Gvuergen is a magazine writer and busi- ners woman. They were married March 9, 1908, and separated March 21, 1911. Wite Went to Chicago. Mrs. Goergen testified that the day they separated she left her home in Overland Park, St. Louis County, and went to Chicago to take a position as private secretary, because her husband was not supporting her. She returned in the summer on her vacation and found evidence, she said, that her hus- band had been attentive to another woman. She accused him, and he admitted it, but begged forgiveness, explaining he had been lonely, she said.

When I got back to St. Louis I found my home in Overland Park deserted.” Mrs. Goergen said she got on the trail of her husband at Wellston. Heavily veiled, she boarded the same street car and sat behind him on the ride down- town. Georgen got off at Fifteenth street and his wife followed him to the hotel, she said. Goergen is a nephew of Bishop Schwel- bach of La Crosse, Wis. According to the plaintiff, Goergen said he was worth $75,000 when he married her. She said he got $1000 from her.

Teachers and Parents Are Invited to Offer Field Day Suggestions HE POST-DISPATCH is T relying on the interest and co-operation of the principals and members of the patrons’ alliances, composed of the parents of the schoolboys to carry out its Public School Field Days plans. The Post- Dispatch will be glad to have those who are interested in the welfare of the boys write to this office making suggestions or volunteer assistance in form- ing the athletic league and car-

rying out the plans.

- Prof. A. E. Kindervater, Supervisor of Physical Culture of the St. Louis Public Schools, to whose capable direc- tion the success of the Public School Field day of the past two years “as been greatly due, approves of the plan of the Post-Dispatch to organize a pub- lic school athletic league for the pur- pose of holding individual school meets and a great interschool final meet dur- ing the spring and summer months. Prof. Kindervater has indicated *#illingness to give advice which tigh general qualifications and espe- «ially his experience in handling large meets will make very valuable and co- operate in every way that he can in tile ecaurrying out of the plans. Advocates Sports. Discussing the Public School Athletic Ixnague with a Post-Dispatch reporter, Pref. Kindervater said: *“l am very much in favor of any mecevement that stimulates all well-regu- lated, sane and safe outdoor physical netivities for people of all ages, espe- eialiy for children. “Athletic games and contests for grade Behool children in the adolescent age lis nis eec careful grading in order not to overtax the heart and lung capacity of s the participant.

95 SCHOOL NINES ENTER POST-DISPATCH LEAGUE —_— én a

eel Fifty Expected to Be Enrolled When Entries Close Friday—Call or Telsphone and Get Your Instructions. Qua

WENTY-FIVE schools Monday afternoon responded to the call of the manager of the Post-Dispatch sent representatives to the Post-Dispatch office with their entries for Public Schoo] Basebal] League and the 1912 championship, which this year will open April 6. Of the number, six were not in the organization last year. As more new schools are ex: pected to be represented later, the management of the league expects that fully 50 institutions will have teams when the entry lists close. All schools desiring to be represented in the league that have not yet been entered will send representatives to the Post-Dispatch office to receive member- ship cards and be enrolled. Captains or managers who find it impossible to be present by Friday may enter by tele- phone, and cards and instructions will be sent to the proper addresses. Call or telephone after school hours, and not later than 5 o'clock. Remember that the sooner the play- ers get their cards, sign them in the presence of the principal and _ return them to the manager of the league, the sooner the teams can be assigned to their subdivisions and grounds. It also will help the arrangement of a schedule in ample time to avoid con- fusion. The league, as last year, will be dfi- vided inte eight subdivisions as fol- lows: West End. 1; West End, 2; North End, 1; North End, 2; Central, 1; Cen- tral, 2; South Side, 1; South Side, 2. Teams of each of the divisions wili jlay together, as last season in pre- liminary contests, and the survivors be- come members of the main league .f eight teams, which will contest for the championship. If there are six tean.s nie, Day of. International entered in the race by Friday night, Post-Dispatch. The championship finai of last season was played before 5.0 persons. The old teams which have re-entered fcr the event this season are: Ashland, Arlington, Blair, Blow, Co- lumbia, Dozier, Farragut, fanning, E'roebel, Field, Garfield, Hodgen, Lafav- ette, Lincoln, Monroe, Marshall, Madi- son, Siegel and Sherman. The newcomers to the league entered so far are: William Clark, Elliott, Emerson, Gra- tlot, Meramec, Washington. LOSES RACE WITH DEATH

Woman on Way to City Reads That Brother Had Died. After traveling. three days and two nights to reach the bedside of her brother, Thomas J. Prendergast, 2401 Biddle street, whose last wish had been that he might see her again, Mrs. Fan- Falls, Minn.., bought a newspaper on the train coming into St. Louis and read the notice of her brother's death. The funeral was Monday from St. EZ RASCO HANGED [= DENYING THAT tit KILLED 4 PERSONS Missourian Trailed to Home by Bloodhounds After an Entire Family Was Killed. MARYVILLE, Mo., March 2%.—Hez Rasco, murderer of the Hubbell family of four, was hanged in the yard of the county jail here as the clock was strik- ing 6 this morning. Rasco protested his innocence on the scaffold and recited the Twenty-third Psalm. The letter writted by Rasco to the Revs. Miller and Miller, his spiritual advisers, to be opeend after the execu- tion and which was believed to be a con- fession, simply thanks them for the comfort they had given him and for shywing him the way to everlasting life. It clases with a warning to young men to obstain from gambling, espe- cially with cards; to shun bad company apd to refuse liquor. The crime for which Rasco was hung was the murder of Mr. and Mrs. Oda Hubbel and their two small children at their home near Guilford, Mo., on the night of Nov. 2, 1910, and the firing of the house to cover up the murders. Bloodhounds taking up the scent at the scene of the crime, followed a trail to Rasco’s room in his father’s home and stopped at a closet in which was found a pair of his overalls. Rasco was spir- ited to St. Joseph, to prevent a lynch- ing. An oddly shaped print of a shoe heel near the Hubbel home corresponded with the heel of a pair of shoes worn by Rasco. The motive assigned by the State was Rasco’s desire to recover money wdén from him by Hubhel in a poker game. He was convicted on circumstantial evi- dence alone, his alibi having been torn to pieces by the introduction in court of a strange hunter whom he accused.

The vital emotionalism of the Strauss composition was so humanly voiced by the players under Josef Stransky’s con- cuctorship that it seemed to hold its St Louis audience spell-bound. It was the storm of applause following the emer gence from under this spell that cre- ated the “big scene” of the night, a scene almost without a parallel in the annals of orchestral achievement in this city. will hand up a presentment. grand jury will report to Judge Crain in General Sessions next Thursday. eter THE SMOOTHEST TOBACCO tells its own story, and there's not a dry moment in it. latest styles; extra 6.75 eeeenes oe 20.00 watch pocket; 1.90 aplendid line; at. e ; a 98: il Strictly Tailored Dress Skirts 3.50, 5.00 and 8.50 all-wool; serges, diagonals, cheviots, »rilliantines, Panamas and voliles; latest models; all colors. 3.50 Skirts 5.00 Skirts 8.50 Skirts 1.49 2.43 3,49), women’s white w calidon good wear- ing material Suits 15.00 women’s satin-lined Suits; serges and mix- tures} slightly Men's 12.50 Blue Serge Men’s $10 Cieenl ette Coats CONFIRMATION SUITS: 2.75, 5.75, 6.75 = Up to 12.50 2! 4,80 Conductor Stransky, recatled again linings : and again at the number’s close, finally realized that only the fullest acknowl- edgment of the house acclaim would suffice as his own expression of thanks for an appreciation of his work so over- whelming in its spontaneous fervor. First he signaled to his 88 players and brought them to their feet, erect and formal as a battalion of soldiers hear- ing on dress-parade the approval of a commanding general. Then, as the Odeon rang with an even greater vol- ume of applause, Stransky yielded even further and gave an additional signal which swept his splendid orchestra into @ second peptoemanes, of the triumphant score, The passionate Strauss tone-picture, so amazingly realizing the curious leg- end of the world’s fear and dismay at the loss of fire, the fiercest of the ele- ments, and yet so indispensable for hu- man comfort and safety, and the mad rejoicing at its restoration, gave a ma- jestic opportunity for the most con- vincing proof of a great orchestra’s ut- terance of supreme and alli-dominating emotion. The opportunity was magnificently im- proved, the strings, the brasses, the wood-winds, the percussion battery, all combining in what really seemed a vast elemental unison to produee a climac- teric moment.of almost inconceivable grandeur in tonal eloquence. It was a great.etroke of instrumental art—I doubt if we in St. Louis have ever heard it equaled, And, happily, it had followed swiftly the Philharmonic interpretation of an other composer’s dreaming which af- forded -@ test-contrast of unforgetable beauty. This other score was the very levely Grieg elegiae-melody for string orches- tra, “The Last Spring,” in which, with ravishing poetic delicacy, the wistful souled Norwegian creates a marvelous- ly atmospheric picture of vernal days amid the melancholy fiords and rocky barrens of his native land. It is a picture that may Rot safely be attempted for reproduction by any but masters of their craft. In Monday night’s drawing by the Philharmonic string section it received a treatment which so fully brought out its charm that I doubt if any who heard will ever forget the completed tone-painting ulti- mately submitted. This, to my thinking, was the gem number of the night, although, as a mat- ter of course, its restriction of achieve- ment to the strings forbids its being employed as a basis of judgment upon the work of the orchestra as a whole. It remained for the “Fire Famine” to complete proof of the full ocrestra’s competency. The quaint and appealingly tuneful f GF : ‘ ; Weber overture to ‘“Euryanthe,’’. de- | lightfully played, constituted the pro- gram’s opening number, and the Tschai- kowsky Fourth Symphony in F Minor, performed by our own Symphony Or- chestra only last week, marked the pro- gram’s close.

The Post-Dispatch is the only evening BLANCHE BATES IS | IRRESISTIBLE IN NOBODY'S WIDOW’ Hopwood Comedy, Olympic Of- fering, Is Full of Laughable Situations.

BRUCE M’RAE _~ PLEASES Small Cast Effectively Aids For- mer Heroine of ‘“‘Darting of the Gods.”’

In each of the three acts of ‘‘Nobody’s Widow,” which began a week’s engage- ment at the Olympic Monday night, Flianche Bates does one irresistible bit of comedy. In Act 1, draped in widow’s weeds, she shows her Palm Beach hostess the big doll she.has' purchased in France, and then, removing the doll’s lead, produces an array of contents indicating her belief that smuggling is only a conventional offense. Her second bit of pantomime comes in the second act, in the solemn devour- ing of grape fruit sandwiches as she takes in the situation which her sud- den arrival at a little supper-for-two— the two being her ‘“‘late’’ husband and the hostess—has broken up. The third requires a heroic sacrifice cf her personal charms, as she sits be- fore her boudoir dressing table and makes up into a perfect Sis Hopkins, with mop-twisted hair and the unsig!it- liest of patches. This is done to con- vince her hostess’ suitor, who has beea horrified by a chance view of the host- ess en deshabille, that all women look equally ugly at bedtime. Avery Hopwood’s ‘“farcial romance,”’ agl the playbill announces it, concerns itself with the second meeting of the Duke of Moreland (Bruce McRae) ani Mrs. Roxana Clayton (Miss Bates). The gnificance of the second meeting, which occurs at Palm Beach, is that on the occasion of their first meeting, in France. the Duke and Roxana were ma.-’- ried. They were happy for several min- utes, but separated when, within an hour after the ceremony, Roxana found the Duke kissing an.old flame. Rather than tell her friends what had happened, she put on mourning, and announced ito them that Mr. Clayton—she had known the Duke only by that name—had died suddenly. The Duke meets her at a Palm Beach house party, and while he consents, in their first interview, to ‘‘stay dead,” he has his own idea of a deceased husband's proper behavior toward his relict, and the fun, all the funnier for the supposed grief of the charming widow, runs through a course of rapid repartee un- ul things resume their intended course. “You Englishmen make shocking hus- bands,”’ is the hostess’ reproach to the Duke, at one stage. ‘‘Yes, but splendid ghosts,’’ is his retort. Bruce McRae avoided any burlesque Anglicism in his portrayal of the Duke, and behaved as an American husband might have done. The rest of the small cast, including Adelaide Prince as Bet- tie Jackson, and Kenneth Hunter as Ned, her somnolent suitor, met the de- mands of their parts amply, and if the supper scene between the Duke and Bet- ty was not exactly convincing, it was the playwright’s fault rather than the fault of the participants, who at any rate made it funny. It was a relief, in the second act, to see Miss Bates shed her mourning for colors more becoming to her. The last few minutes of the last act carry the action rather beyond what is required, and are—oh, la, la, la— so Frenchy. C. F. HURD. a wr

LITTLE WOMEN AT GARRICK. A sympathetic dramatization of Louisa M. Alcctt’s “Little Women”’ fairly cap- tivated a goodly sized audience at the opening production in St. Louis at the Garrick Monday night. Marian de For- est’s stage version of the famous lit- tle book crystalizes it into two hours and forty minutes of wholesome tears and good fun. The play’s homely heart interest does not falter for a moment. This result is due no more to the ap- peal of the story itself than to the cap- able interpretation it had from the well-selected cast of 12. Marie Pavey as Jo March, big sister and big tomboy, puts enough comedy into her role to make it delightfully suggestive of Rose Stahl in the best moments of the Chorus Lady. She bosses Meg and Beth and Amy when she ign’t mothering them, and makes no end of sacrifices, and as a line in the play says, ‘‘the bread that she cast on the waters returned to her buttered.’’ Jo gives up the sweetheart that Amy wanted, and marries the German profes- sor who had innocently braved her wrath by criticising as trash Jo’s love story that had been printed in a rather violently inclined periodical.

FRENCH MINISTRY. ORGANIZES CHASE OF AUTO PIRATES Motor Car Squad Will Seek Per- petrators of Robbery and 3 Murders in 3 Hours.

MAKE FLIGHT ON TRAIN Abandoned Machine, Containing Hats and Cartridges, Pro- vides Only Clew.

By Associated Press. PARIS, March 26.—At a specially con- vened meeting of the French Cabinet today it was decided to strengthen and centralize the French Detective Depart- ment and organize a division of secret service men to operate in swift auto~- mobiles to cope with the new type of criminal called the “auto bandit.”’ A general alarm was sent out from the Prefecture of Police to all the po- lice authorities throughout Europe in connection with the murders commit- ted yesterday by the gang that has ter- rorized the highways of France. No trace, however, has been found of the brigands who, besides killing 4 chauf- feur at Villeneuve-St. George’s, held up a bank at Chantilly, killing two of the employes and wounding another and stealing $8000. Apparently the police are powerless against this organization and @ section of the press is beginnig to criticise Louis Lepine, the Prefect of Police, who is charged with allowing his administra- tion to get out of date. Criminals Work Rapidly. The feature of yesterday’s series of crimes is the startling rapidity with which they were committed. An auto- mobile was stolen by the bandits as it was passing through the historical Forest of Senart, about 25 miles from Paris, at 8:15. From that place it was traced to Paris and Chantilly, where it arrived at 10:30. Its occupants had stormed the bank at Chantilly, 23 miles to the northeast of Paris, returned to the suburb of Asnieres with the spoils, and escaped by 11:30, after which all trace of them was lost. The stolen automobile was seen and recognized by the cyclist police on watch at Asnieres about 11:30 a. m. The police sprang upon their bicycles and gave chase, but were soon distanced. Shortly afterward they came up with the automobile, which had been aban- doned by the bandits close to the ralil- road. This is the last trace of the as- sassins, and it is assumed they jumped the fence to the track and boarded a train for Argenteull, which usually slows down at this point. In the abandoned vehicle the police found an empty portfolio belonging to the Chantilly Bank, which removes all doubt that the Villeneuve-St. Georges assassins were also those of Chantilly. Two hats, with a number of cartridges for revolvers and carbines, were found in the machine. Alphonse Bertillon was immediately summoned and photographed the finger rrints on the automobile for the an- thropometric department of the police Bank Robbery Story Told. An employe of the bank at Chantilly, who escaped in a mirculous manner, re-

lates the story of the bandits’ attack as follows: “Four assassins entered the bank and lined up before the counter with mili- tary precision. At the word of. com- mand, given by one of them, a volley was fired and the cashier dropped dead, while another man was mortally wound- ed and expired in a few minutes. A third man was wounded. A fourth hap- pened to be stooping to open a drawer when two bullets Passed close to his head without hitting him and he escaped into the yard.” .Soon after the robberies had been re-

ported, detectives in automobiles vegan searching the environs of fa". The detectives believe they have a much bet-| ter chancé of capturing the assassins now,.in:' as much as several persons have been able to obtain a good look at them and could identify them. A ru- mor is current that a man named Garnier, one of the band, has been ar- rested in the suburbs of Colombes, but there is no confirmation of this.

work, Special to the Post-Dispatch. MEXICO CITY, March 26.—While all dispatches from the front agree that an important battle has been fought be- tween Jimenez and Torreon, and that the Federal commander, Gen. Jose Gonzales Salas, committed suicide, the outcome of the engagement is in doubt. Federal advices are that the Madero troops defeated Orozco crushingly, while other messages say the Government army was routed. That the rebels were successful seems the more probable.

NEW YORK, March 26.—Theodore Roosevelt, winding up his campaign for ‘delegates in this city, addressed six meetings on the East Side and in the ‘Bronx last night.. Total attendance, 9100. * Maud Malone, militant suffragette, nearly broke up’ the most important ‘and best attended meeting that Roose- ovelt addressed in his “whirlwind tour.” Her heckling brought from the Colonel a brand-new answer to the query that some suffragette has asked at nearly all ‘big political meeting of late. } Miss Malone stood in an audience of > ore than 3000 at the New Star Casino, | | 07th street and Lexington avenue. When | the Colonel had waved his hands to ¥ he cheering crowd, and had got well yPato his speech, she cried: “i*What about votes for women, Mr. Roosevelt?” * Miss Malone has a high voice, which es. Her interruption caused the r to pause and the crowd to be- hissing: The hissing grew quite loud mand there was some laughter. Says He Wants to Answer. "Let me answer. her; let me answer fer,”’ shouted Roosevelt.

STATE BACKING NEEDED Special Medical License for Weddings. A number of St. gymen believe that the clergy of the Cathedral, requiring medical cates as a preliminary t9 ceremonies, is too. radical church to enforce without of the State. No sucn rule, as can be learned, has ever down by any Episcopai rector Louis. Dean Carroll M. Church Cathedral, cor- responds to that of Dean Sumner, au- thor of the Chicago rule, said Tuesday that the Chicago clergy had the right to ntake any requirement they Saw fit, but would make no statement regarding the possibility of putting such a rule in effect here. Christ Church Cathedral, which is near the marriage license of- fice, and which has a chapel especially for small wedding parties, is the scene of many marriages. ; Deserves Consideration. The Rev. Garrett of St. cer’s Episcopal. Church expressed proval of the spirit of the Chicag» dean's action, but said: ‘It will be found difficult for any one clergyman the rule made Chicago marriaze for the far laid St. sO been in Davis of Christ whose position Pe- a rule. To make it effective, the clergy would all have to stand together, antl the state should back. them up. But I think this whele matter deserves much more consideration than it has received. If morg.attention were pa:l to the proper requirements for maij- riage, there would be less domestic infe- licity and divorces would be fewer. The state, which now prohibits mar- riages of insane persons, might weil ex- tend its restrictions.’ St. Louis advocates of eugenics ex, pressed approval of the action of the Chicago clergymen, as calling atter- tion to the need for laws establishing medical supervision of marriage. Favors State Law. “IT don't knéw just how far the churches will be able to go."’ said Dr. Frances L. Bishop to a Post-Dispaten reporter Tuesday. “Even a general ac- tion on the part of the churches would not have the effect that @ State law would have. There are now laws of this sort in Indiana and some Western states. “The action of Dean Sumner is a step in the right direction, and I hope to see the time when not only a church marriage, but a state license to marry, will depend on the fitness of the appli- eants. This is uecessary as a protec- tion to future generations.” Dr. W. H. Fuchs, a leading member of the St. Louis Society of Social Hy- giene, said: ‘“‘Sueh a rule is a neces- sity, but the action of churches is not sufficient to enforce it.

THE POST-DISPATCH PLATFORM. I know that my retirement will make no difference in its cardinal principles, that it will always fight for progress and reform, never tolerate injustice or corruption, al- ways fight demagogues of all parties, never belong to any party, always oppose privi- leged classes and public plunderers, never lack sympathy with the poor, always re- main devoted to the public welfare, never be satisfied with merely printing news, al- ways be drastically independent, never be afraid to attack wrong, whether by preda- tory plutocracy or predatory poverty. April 10, 1907. JOSEPH PULITZER.

Circulation Last Sunday oo —_————— a —— sd —s eS ee eee eee ceutinetatetitans mannan THE KEY TO THE TEXTILE SETTLEMENT. From sources connected too intimately with the Textile Trust to be doubted comes the report that the raise in wages of wool and cotton mill workers in New England is to be followed by an increase in the price of the goods from their looms. There is no reason to suspect that the report is unjustified. The Aldrich-Payne tariff law, which Mr. Taft approved, disapproved and now temporizes about, gave these textile bosses a bigger profit than ever before, yet they seized upon the mere fact of a rewriting of the iniquitous textile schedules originally framed by their own agent as a pre- text for increasing prices to the consumer. No one will be surprised that, forced by public opinion to grant their employes a small advance toward living wages, they hasten to transfer to the wearers of clothing made from their cloths the burden of the higher wage. There is only one defense against the robber extortions of the New England tariff barons and Republican grand dukes. It is through re- duction of the tariff to revenue rates. i di die — The spectacle of Horace F. Kearney of S8t. Louis convoying the ship of friends out to sea in an aeroplane and dropping letters and bon- bons on the ship’s deck miles from shore con- duces to further flights of aeroplane fiction. —— — = i i se *‘GOOD BREEDING’’ IN CHICAGO. No fact is better established in the history of morals than that immorality increases in propor- tion to the extent of official restrictions on mar- riage. In spite of this, a Chicago “dean” an- nounces that after consultation with his bishop, it has been decided to require persons applying for matrimony to present “a certificate from a reputable physician, that they are normal, phys- ically and mentally.” This is the idea of the late Francis Galton. It is only one of his extensive stock of ideas, fads

a and fancies, many of them so erratic that no one needs to be a physician to deny a certificate that he was normal mentally. He was British, how- ever, and his theory was that the “lower classes” should be subjected to the same regulation in “breeding” that the upper classes of aristocratic British land owners apply to cattle and swine. Galton believed that “selection” of this kind, with a pedigree of 10 generations, such as goes with a British prize hog, might make the British oe classes” decent from his standpoint of “~~ “good breeding.” In England now, the “lower classes” are under- taking to establish tests under which the upper classes will have to show they are “normal phys- ically and mentally,” not by a physician’s certifi- cate, but by going to work and showing ability to support themselves. In Chicago, they may be- _fome better bred finally, even under Galton’s ~~ methods. Who knows? Let them try, if they like.

Japan has thousands of story tellers, who go from house to house and spin yarns at 20 cents an hour. The United States have millions of ’em, who insist on yarning without invitation to men whose time is worth several times 20 cents an hour.

-~2 ee — = THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. At Fort Smith, when they supposed that San- ford Lewis had shot Deputy Constable Garr, they lynched him by hanging him to a trolley pole, without stopping long enough to think about doubts. ‘Now, when Deputy Constable Garr is recover- ing, a specia: grahd jury will begin an investi- gation of the doubt in the case. “It has devel- oped that there is a doubt as to whether the negro shot the deputy constable,” Fort Smith informs readers of the Post-Dispatch by tele- graph, to explain the work of its special grand Tt is to be hoped that the grand jury will do ite work of investigating the doubt thoroughly, It late to give Sanford Lewis the benefit of if it is thoroughly investigated, it may some possible benefit to someone else is about to be suspended from a trolley regardless of the suspension of public opin- to operate in such a way that a, of doubts will not ad ex post} ie too it, but ‘be of COL. ROOSEVELT’S PURPOSE. In his Portland speech even more clearly than his Carnegie Hall speech, Col. Roosevelt reveals bigs intention to do his utmost to defeat Mr. Taft for re-election. He has gone to the limit cf un- fairness in construing Mr. Taft’s utterance with regard to representative government. He as- sumes that because Mr. Taft opposes the Roose- velt plan of reform and supports constitutional representative institutions the President believes in government of, for and by the privileged few. Mr. Taft need hardly defend himself from such an implication. The issue of the recall of judicial decisions, to which Mr. Roosevelt has devoted a part of one and all of two important campaign speeches, re- lates solely to the states. He says it has no con- nection with the Federal Constitution or the Fed- eral Courts. Nor has it anything to do with or- dinary civil or criminal suits; nor with the recall of judges. But Col. Roosevelt makes this one issue touch- ing state government tu Lasis of 4 vigorous at- tack upon all goverpmént as it has been admin- istered in the United States and an impassioned appeal to the people to take control of their gov- ernment. He pictures his issue as the vital issue of democracy and vaunts himself as the steward of the welfare, not alone of the American people, but of mankind. Sentence after sentence clearly indicates his view that he is.a new Moses leading the people out of the oppressions of the modern Pharoahs into the promised land of justice and liberty. Col. Roosevelt is too shrewd a politician not to realize the apparent hopelessness of his contest for the Republican presidential nomination. His announcement has not brought a great popular spontaneous response. On the contrary he finds himself compelled to beg for support. North Da- kota rejected him for La Follette. There is strong evidence that the great Republican states are aligning themselves with Mr. Taft, whose strength is increasing. The powerful Republican leaders are supporting the President. If Col. Roosevelt is not on a political spree, there is an object in his present campaign beyond that of obtaining the nomination. Even if ne is blind drunk with vanity and lust of power, there is a drunken purpose in his madness. The points we have noted suggest that purpose. The Colonel wants to lead a political revolution and form a new party. He expects to defeat Mr. Taft and thus wreck the present Republican organization. He expects to take possession of the Republican party in the name of progress. He expects to combine the Republican and Democratic progressives. Un- doubtedly the Colonel has a vision of himself im- mortalized in history as another Lincoln striking the shackles from the white slaves of America. He sees himself as the leader of a new democracy establishing a new nationalism. This is a large ambition with many obstacles in the way of its accomplishment. Humiliating de- feat may unsaddle the Colonel as a popular leader. The American people may recognize the dema- gogue in the mask of a Lincoln. A wise and liberal Democratic administration may accom- plish the reforms needed witiout nullifying the constitution or mutilating representative govern- ment. The American people may decide to make their present form of government thoroughly rep- resentative; they may correct its evils without destroying its safeguards. eh hn hn — a “Jackpot Government” will be the subject of the address of ex-Mayor Dunne at East St. Louis, a place where the allusion is certain to be under- stood.

STIMULUS TO AMATEUR SPORTS. Excessive professionalism is the weak point in present-day sports. The stimulus it must inevit- ably give to local amateur sports of all kinds is one feature which invests the Post-Dispatch plan for a Public School Athletic League with an interest and importance not confined to school circles. The number of those who participate in school football and baseball contests is necessarily lim- ited. Encouragement of healthful sports in whose benefits all boys may share is the central idea in the Athletic League of the schools. Events will be arranged with a view to giving an all- round physical development, games of violence from which injury and harm to immature boys often result being avoided. Field days will be held at convenient intervals with a final compe- tition at a closing interschool meet. To introduce common sense into school athletics in which the entire body of boy pupils will be encouraged to join is a plan whose high merit is obvious. The increased interest on the part of schoo] boys in amateur sports may be expected to continue after their school days are over. Prof. Scott Nearing of Pennsylvania University figures that 320,762 trackmen and other laborers on the railroad system of the United States get but $1.38 a day, with time lost on days when they do not work. A large proportion of 37,760 tele- phone employes average but $30 a month. No wonder the cost of living pinches. It must be brought down nearer the range of wages. —_ - S = ’ GIRL PHINEAS FOGGS. Three sons of wealthy parents, including one from St. Louis, have got as far as the Pacific Coast in an attempt to work their way around the world. Probably they will succeed, for it is a feat which three girls from Englewood, N. J.. have just accomplished, with adventures which may make those of the young men seem tame, The three girls shipped as stewardesses on the freighter Suruga last October. The fact that their influential parents’ pull with the owners undoubtedly assisted in procuring for them the only status in which they could embark on the vessel, which has no license for passengers, de- tracts nothing from the enterprise of the girls and the interest in thefr unique voyage. As members of a crew which included 42 Chinese they went to the Straits Settlements, and then to Manfla, from which the ship has just returned to Boston loaded with hemp and sugar. They made landings at many Oriental ports and had a series of experiences which no three American girls probably ever had. before.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Descendants of the Cavaliers. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. An article in a recent Sunday paper, written by Rev. Cc. W. D. Nicholls entitled, “Scions of Cavaliers,” places nearly all of these scions in and about New York and Boston. We have no record of any cavaliers settling anywhere in this country except in Maryland, Virginia, the Caro- linas and Georgia. There were many noblemen among the French who settled in South Carolina; also there were nobles from France who were among the early settlers who came to Louisiana. I am under the impression that none of the no- bility of any European country settled in New York or the Eastern States, except two or three from Holland. So Mr. Nicholls’ ‘“‘scions’” (if he has any), must have come from the South. The passengers of the Mayflower were of the work- ing people. John Alden and Miles Standish, al- though gentlemen, certainly were not of the cavaliers. Perhaps I am mistaken in regard to this matter and would be glad to be corrected and enlightened. M. M,

A Simple Remedy. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Three ounces of green mullein leaf, boiled in a pint of milk, morning and evening, have cured some cases of consumption. This remedy, simple L. H, Street Cleaners’ Pay. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch | I heartily agree with a previous writer as to the pay of the street cleaners of this city. It isa shame that everybody’s salary is or has been rnised except those men that have to go through all kinds of weather; for instance, look at the last two months—shoveling snow continuously, and some of them half clad, not being able to buy clothing out of the niggardly salary they re- ceive. It seems to me that the business men would take hold of this matter, and urge our city fath- ers to do justice to men that well deserve a bet- ter pay than they get. One other thing: they should be paid twice a month, as the majority of them have no credit at the groceries or meat r rkets and to only get about $30 per month they have to live very hard; they must save car fare out of that besides. JUSTICE. ‘‘Save the Boys.’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There is a cry going up, “Save the babies!” Every mother’s heart responds with a hearty amen. But where is the cry heard, “save the boys.” When the dear babies, cared for so ten- derly by their mothers, are grown up, we see too often, these same men who have cried “Save the babies,” going to the polls and voting so that saloons may be placed on every corner to catch the dear boys and drag them down to their de-~ struction. AN ANXIOUS MOTHER, Safety Tests for Rails. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We note the railroads are themselves becom- ing alarmed at the numerous wrecks and are meditating the slowing down of speed of the cannon ball and flyer trains to about 35 miles an hour. The wreckage is not to be wondered at when we reflect that in the past decade locomo- tives and railway equipment have increased nearly 40 per cent in weight without practically any corresponding increase in the strength of the rail itself. The Government, in the public interest, should compel all the railroads to make a thorough and severe test of every rail before it is allowed to be put down on the road bed, READER, Retroactive Fines. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, For one week’s work of nine hours per day, a girl in one of the nut factories earned $1.40. The price for picking whole kernels is 11 cents per pound, and for broken ones 3 cents per pound. If a girl is late one morning in the week, wheth- er first or last day, 1 cent per pound is deducted for the entire week’s work, making 10 cents for the whole kernels and 2 cents for the broken ones. Is it possible that an employer can make fines retroactive? Girls in the shoe factories and the garment factories many times lose a half day’s work if they are late, and are generally charged with the articles they spoil, but they ordinarily receive the damaged goods. In many restaurants wait- resses are charged with broken dishes. In the great wholesale houses employes are docked for the minutes they are late. But no disciplining I know of equals that of reducing the pitifully small piece work price for the days before the of- fense as well as after. CHEELA, Enlightened Journalism. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. While I am not in accord with the political sentiments of your paper, I do admire your sense of fair play in publishing in full Col. Roosevelt’s speech at Carnegie Hall. This is my idea of journalism, and explains the reason of your large circulation, double those of the other newspapers who pursue a different course. I am certain the majority of the public will commend your stand, “SQUARE DEAL” Don’t Waste Water. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. He who advocated “knocking the water meter idea on the head,” and signed, “A Lover of Wa- ter,” has a small, narrow conception of what wa- ter meters would do for the city. His argument is that “people will discontinue bathing and sprink- ling.” Nonsense! Nearly all large cities have water meters, and we ought to waste no time in having them installed.

RAT-PROOFING FRISCO, Dr. Rupert Blue in World’s Work. We learned,. beyond all chance of a mistake, that rats are almost invariably the carriers of the disease. A flea bites an infected rat, and is thereby infected. Then the flea bites another | rat or a, human being—and so trans- mits the bubonic infection. Rats get into buildings by gnawing through the wooden floors. So I hired gangs of laborers and had them cut all woodwork and substitute concrete in the foundations and basements of all the buildings in Chinatown. Our suc- cess in eradicating the plague by this method established the principle that by rat-proofing buildings and driving the rats out of their homes we could destroy the plague. Altogether, we rat- proofed the entire 20 blocks of China- town, even wiring any openings that might be near the ground.

A WORD TO SENATOR STONE, From the Missourian. No one will question the great ability of Senator Stone as a party leader, but it is just as well to take cognizance of the fact that the Democrats of this State are not altogether charmed by the pros- pect of degenerating into a one-man party. The day of the party boss has passed, and the people have acquired the unpleasant habit of resenting any- thing savoring of dictatorship.

VOTE FOR WILSON, From the Dunklin Democrat. Should Champ Clark fail in the Balti- more convention, Missouri delegates will be wise if they vote for Woodrow Wil- son. And, if they should be carried into the Harmon camp, they would best not return to Missouri. The two young men from this district, Mr. Green and Mr. Harty, have bright futures; but they should remember this warning.

His Excuse, From the Cleveland Plain Dealer. She: You didn’t seem to like the new symphony at the concert last night? He: No. The fact is, I ignored It. She: Ignored it! He: Yes, Mrs. Knozitall was with us, you know, and she said she heard it in Munich last year, and I couldn’t show an interest in anything as secondhand as that, could I?

He Growled, From the Yonkers Statesman. Redd: Saw you out with your wife’s dog yesterday. Greene: How did you know it was my wife’s dog? Redd: By the growling. Greene: But the dog didn’t growl. Redd: No; but you did.

No Excuse. From the Chicago Tribune. “By George, old chap, when I look at one of your paintings I stand and wonder’ — “How I do it?” “No—why you do it.” ——

Wagener of Keokuk, Io., came to Thomas last Friday to make his semi-annual visit. Weather prophets immediately said that ‘‘spring was near, for Dad Wagener has come to town. He always comes a day or two in advance of the robins.’” Sure enough, the next four days were sunny and pleasant. Mr. Wagener has always kept a close tab on Thomas and it was kind of him to liberate the balmy air and bring it along with. He is admonished, how- ever, to come earlier next year-—Thom- as (Ok.)

Grandma King patted the girl's head: “You're a good Tohild, Sarah. We'll pull together and _meb after all we can keep up the place—and the roses, yore Grandpa's the old King a subtie rah did do it. But she wore one y suit three years, and sturdy, Bible boots built to stand wear.

This particu- r June evening as she sat in the corch the approval of her fellows rmed to Sarah King pecullarly in- icient—an: 1 all eCaUse of a g so trivial that her cheeks shame in the remem- ince of it.

Sarah asked Jimmy to wait a minute. Then she walked deliberately to the liv- ing room and took from her portfolio ihe letter she had written. She en- closed two bills from her purse and gave Jimmy directions for registering the letter. As she hurried to the school- house she tried to justify herself. John Dexter had passed by on his leisurely way to his office while Sarah cut the roses for Mrs. Johnson's daugh- ter’s wedding bouquet, but Sarah’s back had been to the street. John rested his arms on the fence and watched Sarah with the tantalizing smile in his eyes. Sarah King was the prettiest girl he kne w, and by long odds the finest. St: ange how a gir! could be as pretty as Sarah and not know it. John was not sure that a pretty girl was not prettier when she did not know it. He watched the round arms reaching for the top- most roses for a little, then went on his way saying to himself: “It's a_ pity Sarah doesn't know how pretty she is.” By Friday morning Sarah's twinge of conscience had become a downright ache that vanquished her childish self- pity. When at dusk on Friday evening Sarah did receive from Jimmy’s hands a flat package, she had already decided that she wonld never open it. She would keep it as a reminder of the wicked vanity of a woman old enough to be above such things. She ran up- stairs and locked the box in her trunk, But even for the third time the wind of destiny played tricks with Sarah when o’ Saturday afternoon, as she was start- ing down the graveled walk tc set out ro her way to the sewing cifcle, it blew . irresistible spice and honey of Hun- area Leaf directly in her face. Sarah stpped and picked a bunch for her belt and as she fastened the moss of bloom che was compelled by the charming ef- fect of the pink against the gray of her girdle. She had never known before how beautiful were just the right shades of pink and gray together. She went back to her chamber and unlocked her trunk. Released from the narrow quarters of the box in which it had been mailed the Shining frilled blouse expanded to its

proper shape with a _ delicious rustle. Sarah locked the door, and when she emerged a few minutes later she was 4 glorified Sarah. She was still a glorified Sarah who wulked homeward about sundown and who even forgot the existence of a cer- tain law office on the square. She ap- preached the low frame building with- out knowing that she did so. All her senses were engrossed with the delight- ful fitness and daintiness of her ap- perel, a feeling she had missed all of her fe. John Dexter happened to come to the door of his office at that moment. He was not conscious of the pink dainti- ness. He did not see it. He saw only the face above it. He forgot to put his hat back on his head, and stood there looking at the faded red brick of the courthouse behind which the slender figure had disappeared. The tantalizing emile was gone from his eyes. Did Sa- rah King know she was pretty? He put on his hat and set his feet in the path through the courthouse square, for the first time in his life a man tn a hurry. Sarah did know. She had come into her own. Suddenly something had hloomed within her, something choked hb, duty and sacrifice to a summer in- stead of A apringtime flowering. Give the word back to the French from whom we borrowed it. Banish it from the vo- cabularv of the “cultured.” But the thing exists, potent, eternal. The femi- nine. It is a woman's own. And the fragrance of it may be as wholesomely eweet as is the perfume of the clove- pink by which she sends her wireless message to The Right Bee: “See how { have decked myself for you! With her arms around Grandma Kine’s neck Sarah told her happiness: “We are to be married in September. but we are going to stay right here with you and keep up the place and the roses juet as thev have alwavs been.’ Grandma King’s faded bine eves didn’t fill with tears. They smiled. “We . ehild, T can’t say I'm surprised gieatly. Pretty girlse—as prettv as you— rarely ga to their graves single.

Cavalieri, whose fame as a beauty culturist is scarcely less than that of a singer. “These are more dificult and serious to treat than wrinkles,” she continues. “The sag- ging muscles indicate they have grown too weak to remain in place; they must be assisted, strengthened.” The best way to strengthen them ig by using a wash lotion made by dissolving an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint witch hazel. This creates a freer circulation to the parts, besides causing muscles and skin to contract. Saxolite, pro- curable at every drug store, has hyn by here m the Short story Poh Co.)

ng Age. HAT is the relation between age and marriage? Ever so many questions are addressed to me which have to do with one phase or another of*this important subject. Let’s see if we can't arrive at some general rules. Don’t marry too young. It’s a good plan for both the bride and groom to be of age. But don’t put off marriage too long. When people are young the mutual ad- justments inseparable from married life are infinitely easier to make. Some- where between 20 and 30 is a good mar- riageable age for either man or woman, If you are a girl don’t marry a man many years oldet than yourself. If you are a man don’t choose a wife who will be old while you are still In the prime of life. In the majority of happy marriages the husband is from two to six years older than the wife. Religious Differences. J O. writes: “I am very much in e love with a young lady of the same age. She and I have gone to- gether for four years, she an Episco- palian and Ia Catholic. She said some day she might become a Catholic; also says one chureh is as gf0o0d as another in her eye. I promised to marry her, and she now says she cannot change her religion.” Religious differences are a fruitful <A ER ERE US a IT The é¢

He returned it to the ‘-éfub management, unsigned, with a note paying that he expected more money a oS, than was offered in the document. How- j see fit to boost his salary that he would sign the contract offered, if it was re- j turned to him. It seems that the contract Was not te- turned to Mowrey and he Was puzzled as to what the élub planned to do. He Was obstinate for awhile, and so Was the cliib. For awhile it was believed that Mowrey Was the only Cardinal who was having trouble with the club Ovef his contract, aside from seme of the;rectuits. Before the players assembled for the training junkets, Manager Brésnahan anhounted that no player who had not signed a con- tract would be permitted to be included in the party at West Badén or down South. He was unsuccessful in trying to keep this rule as the players reported at different places. ' According to Bresnahan,. Harmon and Steele are still holdouts. Both’ players mihgled with their teammates, or ex-team mate@, at Robison Field Monday morning, but fatiea to feport at the Armory in the afternoon for a workout. | Bresnahan says he saw both men, but neither side relented in the galary stand.

Reports from Camp Brown in Montgomery that the Browns want to corie to St. Louis aré amusing to the Cardinals. Just what freakish dGesife has seized Mahager Wallace and his players to long for St. Louls in its present condition is a mystery to the Na- tional leaguers. They would gladly swap places with the American League tail enders. It seems a very good policy to keep the Browns in Montgomery until the latest min- ute possible prior to the opening of the series with the Cardinals, It’s impdssible now to work on the field at Sportsman's Park.

One would hardly expect the player to have a laugh com- ing. . * cd NOT A JAIL DELIVERY. B ILL BAILEY is practicing a new delivery. Probably the parcéls post, as it’s rumored Bill is soon to be hand- ed a package. e * = HE’S A LEMON PICKER. IM FLYNN’S remark that popular opinion of a fighter’s ability; or expert opinion either, can be safely disregarded is not without its truth. The public has been on the wrong side of nearly every big contest in the last decadé; as for thé experts, did Jim Cor- bett EVER pick a winner? ” * + PUBLIC HAS TO BE SHOWN. ee Nelson, Jeffries, Fitzgsim- mons, Corbett, Sullivan—all were favorites when they went down the long road. Except in the instance uf Jim Corbett, however, it was the case with all the men named of the pitch- er that went to the well oncé too often. The defeated ones had gone back, but the public had to see its idols fall before it’ could believe their overthrow pos- sible. s s « THE UNANSWERED @QUBSTION. —= was still in his prime when Fitz reversed him, and it is one of the few instances ih which a title holder at his best has been defeated. For the most part, champions decay through neglect of themselves. or through advancing years; then comes defeat at the hatids of a husky young- ster, and the question whether the néew title holder was superior to the beaten ehampion at his best always remains 4 matter of dispute. BOTH MEN DECLINING. TH Johfison-Piynn fight may see the same thing transpire. But the argu- ment against this is strong. For, in Flynn we have no young and improving man opposed to an old and declining veteran. Fiynn is within a year as old as Johnson and has been battling almost as long. The effect of age and promiscuous living may land quite as severely on him as on Johnson. NEVER TOO SOON TO BRGIN. F Johnson wants to retain his title, how- ever, he is making a serious error in hot getting down to work. The mistake that beat Jeffries, want of boxing, can defeat John Arthur, too, for Johnson has not fought in two years, It isn’t a mere matter of physical condition—Jeffries’ case showed that. Jeff was in good physical con- dition; but his eye and hand and foot would not answer to his will, as of yore. TWO YEARS’ SLOTH TO WIPE OUT. J OHNSON will have two years’ rust to @ét out of his system and if he goes into the ring another Jeffries in want of boxing practice, even Fiynn will beat him. how to do things ts net every. thing—it’s the ability to execute what the mind advises that spells champion in any- thing. And thet means hard and constant work. Johnson has three months in which to over- come the idleness of two years. Can he do it? That he may not be able to ts the hope of the Flynn contingent. | * CAN'T AFFORD TO PART. EVER fear, men; we'll have them al) with us; Mowrey, Harmon and Steele. The holdouts need the money and Bresna- han needs the holdouts—a condition which is ripe for compromise. VERY RARE BIRDS. ITH Harmon and Steele out of the Cardinal makeup, the team will have to have some remarkable good fortune to overcome the loss. It takes about two years to develop a pitcher of the effi- ciency of Harmon and as many more to find one with the ‘“‘makings’’ that Steele owns. Pitchers are at-once the. most assential part of the club and@ the hardest to acquire. The Cardinals had ali too few last season and with two of the first-string men lost to this year’s team it can hardly hope to create a disturbance such as last year, when the club had every team in the League on the anxious seat. It’s hard to feel that you are being heid up; but what te the needy One thing fs certain: ing much of the will take all the strength

MCOVERN SHOWS WHITE HE OWNS KNOCKOUT PUNCH St. Louis Bantamweight Wins Third Contest From Coulon’s Sparring Aid. Frankie White, who was brought up in the camp of Johnny Coulon and ought to know something of the fight game, evidently has had Benny McGovern) sized up badly. White pointed by McGovern in Coliseum bouts. He had Benny rated as a light hitter, however, and thought by “‘boring in’’ he would sooner or later cop. He “bored in’’ last night at Cincinnati! and had his head jabbed off for thrée rounds, and then, at the start of the fourth, ran into McGovern’s right, with which he had never become acquainted. It dropped him G¢leanly and he was un- able to get higher than one knee when the referee finished counting. St. Louis Stars tu Fine Shape. Harry Trendall and Léo Kelly, who furf- nish the important event at the Irish-Ameri- ean A. C., Saturday night, were guests at the club Sunday.

T. R. Bland, chairman of the Olytm- pic Committee in St. Louis, states that if St. Louls doesn’t come to the front with $2500 in contributions toward the fund necessary to defray the expenses of the American Olynipic team at Stockholm it will not be doing justice either to its financial standing er te its own importance in the athietie world. “Missouri is going to be more strorig- ly represented at the games than many persons expect,’ said Mr. Bland. “If 100 or more track and field men are send to Stockholm (this depends on the sum raised), St. Louis anda the State of Missouri will have at least one dosen eligibles, a majority of whom would make good in the tryouts.

> New Department Praised by Busy Men for Its @airness and Opportunity for Grasp of Week’s Events Which It Affords.

IDESPREAD indorsement of the following: WALKER HILL, president Me- chanics'-American National Bank: A g00d idea, which will meet with the hearty approval of the busy man. JEPTHA D. HOWE: I think a lit- erary digest of the week's news as the Mirror of Public Opinion represents is a very good idea. It is especially good for filing purposes, so as to be able to refer to, and find readily the important news of a certain period. JOHN D, JOHNSON, attorney: A literary digest of the important hap- penings of the week is original with the Post-Dispatch, and a very important step in the right direction for the bet- terment of our newspapers. I think the local newspapers should not pay 6&0 much attention to trifling accidents, and other news matters, which -are only printed to satisfy idle curiosity, and pay more attention to educational and instructive news. An exchange of views on popular topics among different locall- ties is an important step in that direc- tion, and I think Is a véry good idea. The cartoons are very interesting and instructive. Minors cartoons in the Post-Dispatch are the best in any news- paper in the country. They are not only well conceived, but are well executed from an artistic standpoint. BRECKENRIDGER JONES, banker: The Mirror of Public Opinion is anh added fgature of the Sunday's Post-Dis- patch which will maké it more interest- ing. An unbiased View of the week's news from different localities is a help to the busy man, who hasn't time to read the papers thoroughly through the week. R. A. ROCFORT, principal Patrick Henry School: The “Mirror” is a splen- did feature. It brings to the people's notice all-.kinds of opinions) on public topics. By publishing the views of, oth- ers, even those which conflict with Its ‘ the Sunday Post-Dispatch’s ‘‘ Mirror of Public Opinion,’’ a page of news and cartoons reviewing the world-wide news field for the week, has shown the general pop- ularity of this carefully prepared feview. Some of the latest etpressions made regarding this feature of the Sunday Post Dispatch by readers are its fairness and impartiality, just as I have seen it do by printing news which was not in accord with its editorial position. Such a department seems to me to be especially desirable in a Sun- day newspaper. That paper reaches more persons than any other, and they have more time to read. As a@ conse- quence they are able to give more seri- ous consideration to all phases of ques- tions that should compel public interest. DR. C. H. SHUTT, Hospital Com- missioner: I consider the ‘Mirror’ a magnificent /dea. Such an impartial re- view should give the Post-Dispatch great strength among thinking people, and, if kept as free from bias in the future as it has been in the past, should add to the paper's weight in pub- lic matters. DR. l. M. OTTOFY: The depart- ment, “Mirror of Public Opiniofi,” is a marked advance in dally journalism, giving as it does a widely scattered opinion of the brainy men of this coun- try on moving, virile publie questions. While two men of probity, character and superior mentality, Nke the editors of the New York World and the Courter- Journal may have diametrically differ- ent and divergent opinions of views upon a subject, it is nevertheless an intel- lectual treat to be able to read them side by side, without loss of time. This species of journalism is about’ the only recommendation that has popularized an Eastern weekly and given it wide and extensive circulation. DR. G. F. CHOPIN: The depart- ment is very interesting, I find, and the idea, as a whole, is splendid. I am es- pecially impressed by the impartial man- ner in which political que#tions are han- died. The “mirror” gives the Sanday Post-Dispatch something of the tone of the Idterary Digest and similar maga- zines, and that* tone, of course, is un- questionably high. I hope you will con-

ENGINEERS ARE TO VOTE NEW YORK, March %.—The demands of the engineers on the & raliroads east of Chicago and north of the Norfolk @ Western Rallroad, having been refused and neither of the committees of the railroads and the enginéers indicating any retreat from thelr position, moves were made today to submit the whole matter to a referendum vote of the en- gineers involved. There has been no talk of a strike “We are not talking of a strike,” said engineers.

BATTLESHIP WILL COME UP RIVER AS FAR AS POSSIBLE New Hampshire Will Visit St. Louis in May Unless Two Bridges Interfere. By Wire From the Washiugton Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 26.—The hbat- tleship New Hampshire and the gunboat Petrel will visit St. Louls in May, pro- vided there is enough water in the Mis- Sissippi at that time to enable them to go that distance up the river from New Orleans and return. The Navy Department has ordered the battleships New Hampshire and Nebras- ka, and the Petrel, to take part in the Louisiana Statehood Centennial at New Orleans April 30, and the New Hamp- shire and the Petrel then will cruise up the Mississippi as far as they can go, the Nebraska returning to join the North Atlantic fleet. %-Foot Stage Sufficient, St. Louis river men said Tuesday that a 2%-foot stage of water, on the St. Louls gauge, would indicate sufficient water in the channel to float the New Hampshire, which draws 27 feet. The channel is about 3 feet deeper than the gauge reading. The river often rises above a 2%-foot stage in May, according to Weather Bureau records, and has gone as high as 36 feet in that month. But the river men pointed out another obstacle which, apparently, has not oc- curred to Navy Department offictais, and which, it is believed, woulda pre- vent the New Hampshire from reaching St. Louis, though the Petrel might come here. The Memphis and Thebes bridges, the river men say, are not far enough above the water for a battleship to pass un- der therm, at any stage of water which would float a battleship. The Thebes Bridge is 6 feet above hRigh water mark, and 108 feet above low water mark. The New Hampshire’s masts. according to naval recruiting officers ir St. Louis rise about 190 feet above the water, are not collapsible, and could not be removed without destroying the fighting effectiveness of the ship. They could be taken down, but the ves- sel would have to go back to the Navy Yard and be rebuilt before it would again be serviceable. Reserves Get a Cruiser. The Isla de Luzon, a protected cruis- er, of which Spain was once the proud owner, probably will be added thtx spring to the scenery of the North St. Louls river front. The Navy De- partment has assigned the boat to St. Louls for the use of the Missouri Na- Val Reserves, in place of the moniter Amphitrite, which got only as far as Memphis last pring on its way here. Lieut. G. F. Schwartz of the Naval Reserves said that body was in better shape than ever before, and that the members were enthusiastic over the prospect of getting a new training ship. The Huntress, now at Bissell’s Point, is ite Oniy possession at present. A fund was raised last year the Amphitrite to St. Lowls be expended tn nging

This great sale is due to the backward season; Spring is practically three or four weeks late and our stock is entirely too large for the time of the year. The keynote of this occasion is Value Gi —the question of former price or profits cut no figure—there is no reserve—everything must go. It is an event that will completely overshadow all other sales. In other words, the great Stock Reducing Sale has been schedul for a record breaker. It means dollars in the pockets of every one who takes advantage of it. The items mentioned below are only a few of what you may expect to find here tomorrow in the greatest sale ever attempted. BE we ki (we we w) SURE TO.ATTEND EARLY. — | eA eer ; 4 mi a) Me eg Oy

He was vived, but several days later began to @ omplain of a continual drowsiness.
