WASHINGTON, April 19.—Officials of the Navy Department are: suspending judgment upon the conduct of officers of the Carpathia, who have treated with Scant courtesy requests for information transmitted through the scout cruisers Salem and Chester by Government offi- cials, including the President of the United States. Whether responsibility rests with the captain of the Cunarder or President Ismay of the White Star Line, who is reported as a survivor of the Titanic aboard the Carpathia, is a matter of conjecture. Naval officials indignantly resent the insinuation by the Cunard people that naval wireless Operators are incapable of handling messages with aue celerity. , wr MARCONI, WIRELESS INVENTOR, CHEERED Blushes Furiously at Applause for His Part in Saving Titanic Passengers. NEW YORK, April 18.—Guglielmo Marconi, inventor of wireless telegra- phy, crossed and recrossed his legs fike a bashful schoolboy last night on the stage in the Engineering Societies Building before he arose to respond to a burst of enthusiasm of which any man might have been proud. Two thou- sand persons were packed in the hall at that society meeting when Frank Sprague a pioneer in electrical engineer- ing, stepped upon the stage. “Mr. Marconi,’”” he said, “when to- morrow night those eight hundred or more survivors of the Titanic disaster arrive in New York the entire world will look upon you as their savior. You, sir, have added appreciably to § the average life of the human being.”’ In an instant the entire audience sprang up cheering and clapping hands. Marconi blushed like a child. Then it was proposed that the in- ventor be made a honorary member of the New York Electrica] Society. The motion was seconded by scores of per- fons through the audience. There was more generous applause. Of the Titanic tragedy, Marconi said: “I know you will all understand when I say that I entertain a deep feeling of gratitude because of the fact that wireless telegraphy has again contribut- ed to the saving of hundreds of lives.”

Survivor on Carpethia Ie William Jewett? pmrell at LIBERTY, Mo., April 18.—Stuart Co)- lett of London, England, a passenger on the Titanic whose name has not ap- peared on the list of survivors is safe on board the Carpathia. A wireless received today from Collett by William Jewell College, where he

is to ennoll, reads: “Carpath e—Collett.” “The night was so clear,’’ said Suth: land, ‘‘that-the Parisian’s lookout se. eral times mistook stars on the horizo for ship’s lights. You have seen beau tifully clear winter nights: when yor went skating and it seemed just like day. It was just such a night. You could have played a game of football.”’ And what is more, Sutherland says that from his instrument through most of the evening he was sending out warn- ings to other ships as to the unusual condition of ice floes in the usual win- ter course of Atlantic travelers. All navigators agree that the condi- tion was unusual, that constant north- easterly gales had driven ice hundreds of miles further south than is usual to be expected at this time of the year. Tisually the greatest danger from de- relict bergs is to be found in May and June, and even as late as July, in the transatlantic avenue in which the Titan- ic was passing. Kept Sending Warniugs. Sutherland says that while he has no positive information he is sure the warnings that he and other’ wireless operators sent out must have reached the Titanic. He said: “On Sunday, the 14th, I was at my instrument until 10 o’clock at night. the Mesaba of the Atlantic Transport Line was khead of us. The Californian was about 50 miles in our rear, and the Titanic was following the Californian at a distance, I judge, of 75 or 100 miles. The Mesaba was giving me warning messages about the unusual ice conditions of the course and warned me of the presence of big bergs. I passed the information to the Californ- ian. I sent this message repeatedly: ‘“ ‘Running into ice—very thick—and big bergs.’ “I assume, although I do not know, for I did not talk directly to the Ti- tanic that the Californian passed to the Titanic the messages I had sent and which I had myself previously received from the Mesaba. “I left mv instrument o'clock. I was ordered Capt. Hains because I many hours in an effort to get a ship to go to the aid of the Tank Steam- ship Deutschland, which I had heard was in distress. The Deutschland had no wireless, so I could not get into direct communication with her, but our information was that she was pretty far to the south, and Capt. Hains was heading in that direction as fast as he could go. He wanted me to get on the wireless at 4 o’clock next morning and do what I could with the wireless to discover if possible what news was crossing the sea regarding the Deutschiand. ‘But next morning, when we were 50 miles further south of our course than the Parisian had ever before gone, our route being between Glasgow and Bos- ton, with Halifax as a port of call, and we were on our way to Halifax, but of course had to dig southward to es- cape the ice line, I got a wireless from the Asian stating that she had picked up the Deutschland and so we came on to Halifax, “I received a query on the night of the disaster from Capt.

Relatives of Mrs. Edgar Myers, daughter of the late Andrew Saks, received this message: ‘Leela safe; well cared for. Edgar missing.’’ Neither she nor her husband, who is vice-president of a copper com- pany, had been reported in the list of those saved. Mrs. Harry B.

Sutherland was asked ag to this out of his own ex- perience. He said it was absurd and exclaimed: “Why, on a clear night you can see a berg away off by its glitter.

TEN MILLIONS 1 ESTIMATED Ure INSURANCE LOSSES NEW YORK, April 18.—A revised estimate of the wealth of the better known rich men who went to death

on the Titanic follows: JOHN JACOB ASTOR, head of the house of Astor in America, society leader and one of the richest if not the richest land owner in the United States—$100,000,000. BENJAMIN GUGGENHEIM, Meyer Guggenheim, and member the Smelter Trust——$10,000,000. GEORGE D. WICK, Youngstown, O., &@ coal.and iron magnate—$5,000,- 000. HARRY ELKINS WIDENER, son—$2,000,000, ISIDOR STRAUS, philanthropist; member of the firms of L, Straus & Co., R. H. Macy & Co., and Abraham & Straus—-$5,000,000. GEORGE D. WIDENER of . Phila- delphia, son of P. A. B. Widener, so- clety man and promoter of many en- terprises and traction schemes— $5,000,000. ARTHUR RYE phia—$5,000,000. WILLIAM C. DULLES, member of an old Philadelphia family—-$2,500,000. C. DUANE WILLIAMS, Philadel- phia—$2,000,000. CHARLES M. HAYS, president of the Grand Trunk Railroad, one of the most noted railroad men in the coun- try—-$3,000,000. FREDERICK phia— $500,000. TOTAL—#141,500,000, The best estimates today place the life insurance carried at only $10,000,000, which is amazing in view of the great wealth of the men. It is explained that they, like some of the very rich cor- porations, carried their own insurance. Of this total fully $3,000,000 is thought to be accident insurance. C. M. Hays, formerly of St. Louis, carried $75,000 accident insurance in which was a double liability clause, un- der which $150,000 may be collected by his heirs, son of of his merchant and RSON of Philadel- SUTTON, Philadel-

SAILED 20 MILES AROUND ICEFIELD NEW YORK, April 18.—The Dutch oil tank steamer La Flandre, which came in today from Antwerp, reported an interesting encounter with the ice fleld on April 11 at 9 o’clock at night in latitude 42.02 and longitude 530.07. Dur- ing the intermittent fog Capt. Claude Says that the La Flandre steamed into a large ice fleld which became _ so thickly packed that the steamer could not penetrate it. As far as could be seen from aloft the ice extended in all directions. La Flandre was compelled to put about and steamed for 20 miles to the south- ward in order to clear the ice field. The temperature of the water on enter- ing the ice pack registered 30 degrees and after clearing the ice pack it rose to 54 degrees. If the Titanic sank in water register- ing but 30 degrees those who may have leaped overboard probably survived but & few moments. MRS. CHAMP CLARK TO MEET BOAT WASHINGTON, April 18.—Mrs. Champ Clark and Miss Genevieve Clark, wife and daughter of the Speaker of the House, have gone to New York to meet Miss Rule and Miss May Birckhead, passengers on the § Carpathia. Miss Rule ana Miss Birckhead,- after a six- weeks’ visit with the Speaker and Mrs. Clark, sailed last Friday for a three- months trip abroad. The part the Carpathia played in the tragedy of the Titanic has, of course, altered plans and Mrs. Clark and her daughter expect the two women will

in the night, passengers hurry from their staterooms without stopping to gét either clothing or valuables, and that when they are once on deck they fear to return to the staterooms. Aside from the immediate proximity of the berg which wrecked the Titanic the ocean was full of drifting ice. This would certainly mean that the tempera- ture was reduced greatly, and any per- son in an optn boat without adequate clothing would suffer. ; Mrs. M. Robert has been an invalid several years and it was to take a cure at an English watering place that she went abroad the last time. While she and her party were in London Miss Madill became ill with appendicitis and went to a London hospital for an opera- tion. Mrs. Robert is twice a widow. Her maiden name was Elizabeth McMillan. Her first husband, Judge Charlies Ma- dill, who died several years ago, was wealthy. He rebuilt the family home at 414 Lindell boulevard into one of the best appointed mansions in the city. Advised Wife to Stay Abroad, Mrs. Robert's second husband, Hd- ward 8. Robert, an attorney, became itl since the family went to Europe. Hé aid not think he was dangerously if and told his wife to stay abroad until the spring, when he would - join her and they would go to the Riviera. He died Dec. 12, after a surgical on, Miss Georgette Madill, who is 16 years old, is one of the wealthiest young women in St. Louis. The Probate Court has allowed her $7500 a year for her edu- cation and dress out of legacies of her father. When she is of age it is said: she will come into $50,000 a year, The party was expected in St. Louis for a brief stay in May, and planned to go to England again soon for the mar- riage of Miss Allen, Mrs. Robert's niece, to Dr. James Mennel, a London physi- clan. While Mrs. Charles M. Hays and her daughter, Mrs. Thornton Davidson, weré in good health, their relatives fear the women have undergone intense mental suffering. There have been no advices — that the husband of either woman was rescued. William H. Gregg Jr., of 438 Lactead avenue, and Norris B. Gregg of the Buckingham Hotel, brothers of Mrs. Hays, have received messages Montreal saying there has been no con-_ firmation of rumors that Hays and bat vidson were rescued, Norris B. and his granddaughter, Miss er, have gone to New York ta

Roland Van Hoefen, 8408 Halls Ferry road, an insurance adjuster, obtained a verdict for $600 against the Columbia Taxicab Co., in Judge Muench’s court Wednesday. Van Hoefen sued for $5000, alleging false arrest. According to the plaintiff, it was agreed by an agent of the company to take him in a taxicab to his home from the Planters Hotel for $3.80. On reaching the destination the chauffeur, it was alleged, told Van Hoefen the fare was $. The latter re- fused to pay this sum, and a policeman was called. Van Hoefen said he was held a prisoner on the street until his father appeared and paid the chauffeur the sum asked, despite the son’s protest. The son was not taken to a police sta- tion. The chauffeur testified the bargain to take the plaintiff home was on condi- tion that the route be by way of North Broadway. After starting Van Hoefen, the driver said, instructed him to go by way of Grand avenue, which was three miles longer than the Broadway route. L. W. Childress, president of the com- pany, testified that employes had no authority to cause arrests for nonpay- ment of fares.

e "+ Please Read These Two Letters. The following letter from Mrs. Orville Rock will ll prove how unwise it is for women to submit to the dangers ofa sur operation when it may be avoided by taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s ‘egetable Compound, Sh® was four weeks in the hospital and came home suffering worse than before. Then after all that suffering Lydia E. Pink- ham’s egetable Compound restored her health. HERE IS HER OWN STATEMENT. x Paw Paw, Mich—‘Two years ago I suffered very severely with female trouble. I could not be on my feet for a long time. My physician treated me for several months without much re- lief, and at last sent me to Ann Arbor for an op- eration. I was there four weeks and came home suffering worse than before. My mother advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound, and I did. Today I am well and strong and do all my own housework. I owe my health to Lydia KE. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and advise every woman who is afflicted with any female complaint to try it."—MRS. ORVILLE ROCK, R. R. No. 5, Paw Paw, Mich. “THERE NEVER WAS A WORSE CASE.” pockport, Ind.—“ There never was a worse case of women’s ills — and I cannot begin to tell you what I suffered. For over Beare I was not able to do anything. I was in bed for a month the doctor said nothing. ut an operation would cure me. My father sngeeeted Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound; so to please him I took it, and I improved wonderfully, so I am able to travel, ride horseback, take long rides and never feel any ill effects from it. I can only ask other suffering women to give Lydia E. P ham’s Vegetable Com rn a trial before submitting to an operation.” —Mrs. Marcarer Merepirn, R. F. D. No. 3, Rockport, In We will pay a handsome reward to any person who will prove to us that these letters are not genuine and truthful—or that either of these women were paid in any way for their testimonials, or that the orig- ingl letter from each did not come to us entirely unsolicited. For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for fe- male ills. Noone sick with woman’s ailments ie justice to herself who will not try this fa- medicine, made from roots and herbs, it restored so many suffering women to health. W rite toLYDIA E.

Ascending After Quarrel, Verreht at 1000 Feet Throws Up Hands, Lets Machine Crash to Earth.

Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. Copyright, 1912, by Press Publishing Co. World.) (New York PARIS, April 18.—For the first time the aeroplane became the vehicle of suicide when John Verreht, winner at many Special plunged to his death from a height of 1000 feet at the Chateaufort aero- drome near Versailles. Proof that the act was intentional was furnished by the perfect condition of the motor when it landed. Strangely, it came through intact, although the fall splintered every other part of the machine. Girl Embraces Him. Baffled love was the motive. As the aeroplanist dashed to the earth a young woman rushed across the aerodrome field, and, throwing herself beside the aviator, gathered him in her embrace, crying: “Oh, my John, why did you do it? I never thought you meant it when you said you would kill yourselt.”’ Verreht, with practically all his bones broken and unconscious, breathed his last in her arms. She swooned as he died and friends bore her away, whil- attendants from the field carried the body to shelter. Still other incidents confirmed the self- destruction. Verreht and the girl had srrived together at the aerodrome only a few minutes before he made his as- cent. They had been disputing over something that excited him, He was trying to get some promise from her and she held out against his persua- sion. Finally he was overheard saying to her: “If you don’t do it, I will kill my- sel?.’’ Those who caught these words knew that the pair were affianced and judged that they were having a lovers’ quarrel, Shows Her Photograph. When Verreht went over to his hangar he ostentatiously showed her photo- graph to men standing there and spoke bitterly to her. Then he mounted his machine and flew aloft. Those to whom he spoke at the hangar noticed his ex- citement, but did not suspect suicide intent. Persons watching him with giasees say that at the top of his flight they saw him throw up his hands and let the machine go its own way. It came down almost in a plumb line. Verreht was a Belgian. Although only twenty-three he had taken part in near- ly all of the recent flying competitions of importance in Europe.

BOY BEST SPELLER OF COUNTY PUPILS He Will Go to Jefferson City to Compete for the State Honors. W. T. Bender, School Superintendent of St. Louis County, thinks he has found a living refutation of the as- sertion that the modern school system is meglecting the old-fashioned spelling book in its devotion to “new-fangled” isms and ologies. His argument is Henry Wilmer Jones, 13 years old, who spelled 283 words out of 300 correctly, and defeated 12% other grammar school pupils of St. Louis County, in a spelling match at Clayton. Jones is to go to Jefferson City May lv to compete in the State spelling match there, on that day, for the championship of Missouri. If the Webster Groves School District, in which Henry belongs, does not pay the expenses of the trip, Bender says he will pay them. He be- lieves his prodigy will take the State championship. SE

If headachy, bilious, dizzy, tongue coated, stomach sour and full of gas, and you feel sick and miserable, it means that your liver is choked with bile. Constipation is worse than most folks believe. It means that waste matter decays into pois- ons gases and acidg and that these poisons are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which should suck only nourishment to sustain the body. Most people dread physic. They think of castor oil, salts and cathar- tic pills. They shrink from the aft- er effects—so they postpone the dose until they get sick. That is all wrong.

— 43 SCHOOLS I ATRLETICLEAGUE TWO MORE JOIN Sigel and Oak Hill Are Latest to Enter the Move- ment.

Two more schools were enrolled Thursday in the Public School Athletic League that is being organized by the Post-Dispatch, making 43 that will be represented in the contests that are to be held for supremacy, and the prizes that go with supremacy, in running and jumping and other field and _ track events that are on the program for the Public School Athletic League meets. The two latest entrants are the Sigel school, Allen and McNair avenues, and the Oak Hill school, Morganford road and Bingham avenue. Principal William C. Dyer of the Sigel school appointed Herbert Sleicher to be captain of the Sigel school branch of the league, and Principal George L. Hawkins of the Oak Hill school appointed Leslie Thorp of 4128 Meramec street to be captain of the Oak Hill branch of the league. To Organize a Squad. Each of these new captains will at once organize a squad in his school and take up outdoor training, and the cap- tains are confident that they can easily overcome the slight advantage that may have been gained by teams having a few~days’ earlier start. If the athletic squad of the Eliot School, Florissant avenue and Ferry street, of which W. W. Walters is principal, does not go away from the big inter-school finals al] tangled up tn blue ribbons, it will he because there is no longer merit in a mascot. Ned Vaughan, captain of the Eliot squad, has appointed Eddie Patterson of the Eliot graduating class as the official mascot for the team. Patterson is the shortest member of & graduating class on earth, but js mighty long. on luck, and the luck he is expected to bring to the Eliot squad, added to their natural prowess, will probably work wonders. Team in Training. Capt. Vaughan has his squad about complete, and is training them whenever the weather will allow. These Eliot athletes are in active training: Ned Vaughan, William Wendt, John Bridge, Louls Colley; Charles Schuppe, Car! Kranz, Edward Vogt, Charles Lutz, Os- car Drake, George Patterson, Eddie Patterson, Charles Pietsch, Diura Pip- pan, Earl Frei, Edward Ramshaw, El- mer Yeager, John Roth and John Roz- ers, Principal T. E. Spencer of the Irving | School, 3829 North Twenty-fifth street, announced Thursday the appointment of Elmer Apenbrink of 39% North Twenty- second street as captain for that school, and Principal F. W. Potthoff of the Shepard School, Wisconsin avenue and Potomac street, announced the appoint- ment of Anthony Winkler of 1921 Presi- dent street to be the captain of that school. Both the Irving and the Shep- ard have heretofore been listed, how- ever, and these appointments do not in- crease the total, number of schools en- tered. These captains have entered upon the work of organizing their squads, and preparations are being made to put them into training. To Be Reporters, Athletic League captains are invited to act as reporters for their squads, and send in to the Athletic League Depart- ment of the Post-Dispatch accounts of their progress and plans. All captains who have not already done s0, are re- quested to call at the Post-Dispatch of- fice, third floor, any day at 8:15 a. m. or 4p. m., for a consultation with the managers of the Athletic League. Cap- {ains are also at liberty to call up on the telephone for information or advice or for giving reports of their work and making suggestions.

A DELUSION-SMASHING DISASTER. | The ideal ocean liner of the transatlantic steam- ship companies is the palatial floating hotel, sup- plied with every comfort and luxury that wealth can command, and equipped with sufficient steam power to drive the vessel at racing speed. The increase of luxuries to tempt the jaded rich and of speed to dazzle and invite the strenuous and the sensationalist have been supplemented with ingenious devices to keep the palace afloat, Double bottoms and bulkheads protected the shell. Watertight compartments have been mul- tiplied to keep the vast weight of steel, luxurious furnishings and masses of human flesh afloat. The captains of the liners naturally shared the ideals of their masters. They were infused with their spirit of competition for speed and luxury. Under the stress of ambition to have the largest luxurious palace driven through the water at the greatest possible speed ambitious anq optimis- tic captains went to the bridge, They were able, skillful, careful, but daring. They had the obses- sion of successful courage. No disaster was pos- sible to their perfectly equipped, monster ma- chines under their constant vigilance. Let others on the path look out. Short cuts were sought, regardless of danger. With the multiplying of floating devices and mechanical contrivances grew the theory of the The business boast of the steamship offices became the faith of the public. It finally became the disastrous delusion of ship- owners and legislators. No account was taken of the possibility of the extraordinary disaster, the extreme emergency, when the vast bulk of the Ship struck a vaster bulk of iceberg or rock. Little preparation was made for the shattering blow that smashed bulk- heads, ripped the steel bottoms, broke the com- partments and rendered the mechanical contriv- ances unworkable and useless.

HIS picture depicts a prob- lem which confronted the passengers of the ill- fated Titanic. The Titanic is sinking. The last lifeboat is about to put off. There is one seat left. AST SEAT

Coming | down the gangway is a man, the ithe lifeboat. the wife. The bridegroom written law of the sea, ‘‘ Women and children first.’’ If he joined his wife, the woman behind him will perish. If he gives the wom- an‘the last seat, he will perish, leaving his bride a widow. WHAT SHOULD HE DO? ‘ne Post-Dispatch will be glad to print replies from its readers giving their solution of this real- life problem. Write briefly on one side of the paper, and ad- dress ‘‘Problem Dispatch, St. Louis, Mo.’’ HIS DUTY. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. The rule of the sea is also the rule of the land. In times of disaster the strong should lend a hand to the weak and helpless. I think the man should give up the last seat for he could not do a nobier duty and will receive his just re- ward. C. H. WILSON. GIVE IT UP. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. I think he ought to give up his seat to the woman behind him. A woman is always helpless and he can try to save himself, EDITH ROSENBERG. COWARDICE VS. HONOR, Problem Editor Post-Dispatch: Is it better to make a widow of a bride or cause the death of a woman? It’s a struggle of cowardice and honor. Possibly caste would have its influence with many in answering this question. Here’s a case where millions to one are mo more than overalls to the stoker.

No. He should not take it at one lone- ly woman's expense, but give the “‘last hance” to the woman who would be jeft alone to perish.

The woman behind him on the steps is only a woman—unknown to him —but he will sacrifice his life, make his bride a widow, that she may be saved. No! is my answer to your question; it is the only answer: MARVIN FERREE. WOMAN SHOULD HAVE fT, Problem Editor Post-Dispatch: The woman should have the seat. The man is stronger than the woman and if there was any chance at all for the man to escape death he would be more liable to escape than a woman. ISABEL KIMBREL. A LOVELESS BRIDE. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch: If the bride really loved her bride- groom she would have stayed on the sinking ship and died with him. The pride who left her husband did not love him at all. FE. Z. BRIDE SHOULD RETURN. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch: The bride should return and join her husband on the sinking ship, “for better or for worse” being her obligation and should have no fear to risk the same dangers as her husband. ma &, SHOULD TAKE THE SEAT. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. The husband would be perfectly justi- fied in taking the last seat with his wife The woman behind him probably has no husband or parents, and no one to care for. If he perished, his bride would be a broken-hearted widow, and probably it would cause her death, too. H. F. Ww. SHOULD DIE TOGETHER. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. If in that predicament I were still man enough not to have excessive fear of death, I'd give the strange woman preference, certainly—but I would ask my bride to stick by me, then, God willing—together we stand or die.

R. BIRDSEYE, the Lon- don gent, is here, sir, to see you, sir.’ Calder looked up his man, standing the doorway. “What does* want?” he asked. “The representative of the London tai- lor, sir. He said as how you were to see him today, sir, for some fittings.”’ Calder reflected. He had been getting his clothes at Birdseye’s for vears— their New York man had called on him at regular intervals, the clothes had been made in London, and Calder had paid the duty. Calder was not sure that clothes made by an American tailor were not better. Some of his friends, who patronized American tailors, had excited his envv. An American tailor had received a hint of this, and he had called on Calder to solicit his trade. Birdseye’s man, watch- ful of his own firm’s interest, had found this out. Hence he had been more un- usually persistent. He didn’t propose to let a good customer slip through his fingers. Calder tore open a note. follows: I leave suddenly for London tomor- row, Won't you come and say good- by? *OLLY. Calder jumped up hastily. does this mean?’ he exclaimed excited- ly. ‘“‘Here, Hobbs, get my boots. Teie- phone for my car. Get out another shirt. Hurry, Hobbs, where are iny trousers?”’ Calder. from being a moment before the quintessence of indolence, was now a moving mass of nervous energy. And all because of a few pen strokes made by a pretty girl. He rang the bell of Polly’s father's mansion. He was evidently expected, for he did not have to wait more than 15 minutes. “Well, sir,” she said, as she swished in. “You are prompt. Thanks for com- ing.” She held out her hand. ‘“Good- by,” she said. “I’m off.” ee at in he It read as He didn't let go. “What is joke?” this—a “Certainly not.

Don’t you understand that my father must be considered?” “Certainly, but so must I. Good-by.” At midnight Calder got possession of himself. He had worked off his feel- ings. At 7 o’clock in the morning Cal- der awoke, and went down for his breakfast. “‘Messages for vou, sir. Miss Winslow telephoned, sir, yesterday afternoon. I told her you would be here at 8 o'clock to keep appointment with Birdseye’s man, sir, and she said you were surely to get her note as soon as you came, sir.’ It read: You had no right to leave me as rou did. I love you. Of course I ove you. But if I had told you eo I would in honor bound have had to tell papa. And this I could not do now. And yet [t cannot leave you in this state of mind. You have made it very hard, Mr. Van Antler called after you did. I refused him, I told him I loved you, and the reason I could not tell you on papa’s account. He has given up his trip. I suggest- ed that you would také@ his room on the steamer. You should receive this in time to do this—that -is you care to, POLLY. Calder looked at his watch. It was 10:45. He sprang inside to a telephone booth, and madly eet the number of the steamship office. It seemed ages before he got the connection. “Has the Lupania sailed?’’ ‘Yes, sir.”’ “What time did she leave the wharf?’ “At 9:15.” Calder's eight-cylinder motor boat, the North Star, would go under pressure nearly 3% knots an hour in smooth wa- ter. The Lupania had about 30 miles the start. Could they catch her? Hobbs had helped on the motor boat before, so he knew just what to do. In 18 minutes they were off down the har- bor. te “Thank God, Hobbs,”" said Calder, as he ran up the § ker, “‘there’s no speed limit in New York harbor.” On they went, until they began to feel he real heavy swells of the broad At.

A thin line of smoke, a black column in the dis- tance, betokened the Lupania. A stern chase is a long chase. Little by littie, however, they crept up. It was Wuon- derful to watch the methodical engine, singing away, singing away. The great turbines stopped. It was evident to the captain that there was @ messenger afloat. Possibly he had been informed—by someone. As the North Star shot alongside, a ladder was thrown out. Calder, drenched, hatless, grasped it and clam- bered up the side. Someone standing back of the curious crowd of passengers gave him a look, a look that was quite enough to set his heart singing as the cylinders had sung. And was it not for that look he had come? Calder leaned over the side of the ship, making a megaphone of his hands. _‘*Hobbs,”’ he shouted. “Go to Mr. Van No Need Being Old or — Wrinkled Before 75 Lillian Russel] says any woman who has wrinkles before she’s 75 is herself responsible for them. Sun- shine and fresh air she considers more valuable as complexion pre- servers than nostrums and cosmet- ics. The chief objection to cosmetics is that at best they only temporarily cover up defects. There are certain true aids to Nature which may be applied with directly opposite ef- fect. Ordinary mercolized wax, for instance, actually removes a bad or oldish complexion, by gradually, almost imperceptibly, peeling off the worn-out scarf skin. Just one ounce, procurable at any drug store, will soon unveil an entirely new and natural complexion, with an exqui- site girlish color. Of course cutan- eous blemishes, freckles, fine lines, moth patches, liver spots disappear with the discarded skin. To prevent or remove wrinkles, a face bath which also produces nat- ural results, is made by dissolving an ounce of saxolite in a half pint witch hazel. It’s wonderfully ef-

Betty Vincent’s Advice

Persevere. D. writes: “I want to get ac- , quainted with a certain girl, but know no one who can introduce ine. How shall I go about it?” The only way is to persevere in your search for a mutual acquaintance. Change of Affection. B. writes: “I have been going with a young man, but recently met a Shall I drop the first man gradually or at once?’ At once. It will be kinder in the end Small Gift. M. writes: ‘‘What would be proper ® to give a young man for his birthday?” A book !s always a suitable gift. Indifferent. L. writes: “A young lady I call ®* on is sometimes very indifferent. What do you advise me to do?” Try to convince her of your deep af- fection—if you have it. Be Exclusive. S. writes: “I am in love with a © young man who thinks I love his friend. How can I convince him I don’t?’ ERE are the replies to five ques- tions which were printed on Encyclopedia. H this page a few days ago: 6. HEARING: Any noise causes sound waves to vibrate through the alr. These sound waves are collected by the outer ear and sent through the ear ca- nal to the ear drum. The drum is set in motion by the waves and it communi- cates this motion to the small bones suspended in the middle ear. The bones transmit these vibrations to the fluid contained in the sac in the middle ear. The auditory nerves then collect the vibrations and pass them on to the brain. 7. COLOR BLINDNESS: Color blind- ness is the fault of the brain, not the eye, and no certain cure for it is known. It is usually the inability to detect red. A color-blind person mistakes red for black. He seldom mistakes blue for any other color and never mistakes yellow. 8 “SEEING STARS:” The optic nerve has no power of sensation as

have other nerves. When hurt or ir- struck, he “sees stars,’ or, rather, the flashes of light produced by the irri- tated optic nerve. : 9. SIGHS: Sighing is caused by nerv- ous exhaustion. It is produced by & spasmodic “inspiratory” effort of the — diaphragm and the other muscles ee f° ‘2 re ad * tv ee a phe are used in breathing. The air is craun tat ir. through the vocal cords and an e recoil of the chest walls drives it out j again. 1. BALDNESS: The hair is con- stantly cast off. As long as the p illae (skin projections of the scalp) which the hair springs are in good dition new hair replaces that which out. ensues. But if the papillae are destroyed — or the skin is ill nourished, the lost hair — ie not replaced by nature, and ae j ERE are five more questions. The>- will be answered shortly: tiga 11. What is pain? 12. What is fever, and why are pais and fever often beneficial? 13. What causes crying? 14. Why does cold water erack a glass? es 1S. What causes thunder?

"TAFROPLANES ND BALLOONS 10 SEE EULIPSE OF SUN Aerial Craft ead at Paris When Moon’s Shadow Hides Light of Day. CITY IS IN TWILIGHT Scientists Believe Elaborate Pho- tographic Outfits Obtained Valuable Data. PARIS, April 18—Scientists from all parts of the world who came here to witness the eclipse of the sun could not have had better weather for their ob- servations. The sky had been cloudless all morning and so remained during the phenomenon. So complete was the shadow that at noon, when the eclipse occurred, street lamps were lighted and the shops and cafes turned on their illumination as at night. Great crowds came out on the streets to watch the sky through smoked glasses. The atmosphere be- came greenish dark. All the observatories entertained scientific guests. Five official parties made observations from balloons. Army officers ascended for this purpose in two military biplanes, each carrying two passengers. In addition three bal- loons took up official observers to make scientific study of conditions while the sun was hidden. A captive balloon manned by army of- ficers carried an elaborate photographic outfit. The plates obtained have not yet been developed’ but the officers feel con- fident that excellent results were ob- tained. It had been announced that the eclipse would be total at the suburb of St. Germain-en-Laye. A holiday crowd thronged that place. The eclipse began about 10:45. One hour afterward the atmosphere became shadowed and precisely at noon its ap- pearance suggested the approach of a heavy thunderstorm. This condition lasted for 10 minutes, when the sun showed its edge again. In half an hour it was once more dazzling bright. The cone of the moon’s shadow ran directly through Paris. Its path lay through northwestern Portugal into the Atlantic. All the big astronomical societies sent representa- tives here for the event.

Her Husband Is 19 Years Old and His Mother Is Sur- prised. In the Olive street office of a drug company a vacant chair and a silent typewriter await the return of Mrs. Wil- lis Malone Jr., 20 years old, who, as Miss Selma Ahring of 2927 Hebert street, ‘‘started to work’’ Wednesday and wan- dered to the marriage license office at Springfield, Ill., instead. “T hope she comes back,”’ said one of her associates in the office. ‘She has been with us three years, is a good ste- nographer and a pretty girl and was the life of the office.’’ Her husband is a 19-year-old clerk in the Central National Bank. The bridegroom’s mother, Mrs. Willis Malone of 1801 Oregon avenue, said her son came home late Wednesday night and went to bed without announcing his marriage. He had said, when de- parting in the morning, that he would not be home in the evening as he had an invitation to dinner. He also tele- phoned to the bank that he was ill and could not come to work.

Judge Rules They Cannot Offset Legitimate Debt. Notes given‘in payment of losses in a craps game cannot be used as an off- set to a legitimate debt, according to Judge Shields’ decision Thursday in awarding a judgment of $265 to Solomon B. Pruschansky in his suit against G. F. Keane. Keane admitted owing a bill to Prus- chansky, but said that he held $400 of Pruschansky’s notes. Pruschansky told the Court the notes could not be held against him, as they were given in pay- ment of a gambling debt. Busy Bee Friday Bargain.

Appendicitis Is Latest Scourge to Hit Quakers » {ILADELPHIA, April 18.—Jinx sank his spurs into the already bleeding wounds of the Philadelphia National League club Yesterday. The result was apparent in the announcement that “Red” Dooin, catcher and manager of the club, had been stricken with appen- dicitis and might have to be operated on. His condition was slightly improved this morning, but it was not thought he could get by without an operation. This means that Dooin will be out for many weeks, if the Knife becomes nec- essary. Dooin's misfortune follows five others to important members of his club, as follows: Outfielder Magee—Broken wrist. Utility Man Walsh—Broken ankle. Inflelder Lobert—Broken rib, Catcher Killefer—A broken hand. Pitcher Chalmers—Torn shoulder ligament. This series of misfortunes is calculated to keep back the club for several weeks. A succession of accidents last vear deprived the Quakers of a chance at the flag. SAYS POOR HIGHWAYS COST IS BIG ITEM Hauling Over American Roads

Costs 23 Cents a Mile, Over Germany 8. KANSAS CiTY, Mo., April 18.—To unify the several historic roads repre- sented in the National Old Trails Asso- ciation and to work for Federal aid for a national coast to coast highway, an organization of two delegates from each State touched by the proposed ‘road was decided upon at today’s session of the association’s convention here. Five hun- dred delegates from states from Ohio to Arizona were present. Arguing for the national highway, Jesse Taylor, secretary of the Ohio Good Roads Association, said: “It costs us 23 cents a mile to haul produce over our roads, while it costs Germany only 8% cents for that distance because of its improved highways.”’ “HARRISON” MEANT ALL CHICAGO, April 18—Wojcich Dyll ap-

LAS VEGAS GETS JOFINSON-FLYNN

New Mexico City Contributes Enough to Build Arena for World’s Championship Show.

CHICAGO, April 18.—Las Vegas, N. M., will be the scene of the next world’s championship prizefight, according to an announcement made by Promoter Jack Curley, who is also manager for sim Fiynn. The date of the battle is set for July 4, and the serappers will be- gin training work soon. An arena will be built at Vegas for the show, and about all that the town guaranteed Curley was enough money to put up the arena. Curley has contract- ed to pay Johnson $30,000 for his end, win, lose or draw, while Flynn is gam- bling for his percentage. Flynn's theatrical contracts have two or three weeks to run. After these are completed he will settle down to hard work. Johnson doesn't appear to feel the necessity of doing much work for Flynn. At Santa Fe, N. M., the State Legis- lature is considering a bill to permit limited round boxing. There is no law on the subject, for or against, in the State, at present. The bill now being discussed has already passed the House and is expected to get by the Senate and the Governor’s veto. If it does, all fights will be at the 45-round limit, as the bill specifies that maximum. ,’ a

CAN THIS MEAN YOU, MALACHI? a to keep your guessing hand in, see if you can figure out the name of the gentleman you might reasonably expect would be likely to propose the following matches as evenly balanced and interesting entertainments: Jack Johnson against Bobby Gresham, catch weights. Frank Gotch against Al Wasem. James Rector vs. Albert A. Aal, 100-yard dash. “"T. R.”’ vs. Bob Douglass, rag-chew- ing contest. Athletics vs. ball. Horace Fogel vs. solid-ivery competition. Housewife vs. the fly, elimination contest. As a key to the correct reply, we may state tnat the gentleman in question once thought Eddie Randall would make a good match with Harry Brewer. + . + the Wabadas, base- Fred Merkle, THE HALL OF FAME. A T last James J. Corbett ceases to be in a class by himself. For yeahs and yeahs Joimes has had prac- tically a monopoly of the pugilistic pre- diction game. In the long years of service James has rendered the com- munity, during the course of which he has grown gray predicting the prob- able finishes of champion’ contests, Corbett has had the distinction of never being right. But James’ honors now are challenged. Newer blood has been injected into the game and the chances are Corbett will have to step aside for a newer and abler cham- pion. He is M-l-ch- D-yl-. M-I is the most consistently mistaken man in history. If you want to take a summer vacation get acquainted with him, get him to pick the next president, and then bet against the selection. It's a cinch. . J THERE WITH THE HO’S Malachi? Why, he’s the gentle- man that said Eddie Randall was another McCoy and had a punch that would have made Bob Fitz envious. If Eddie set himself, took a minute to judge the dis- tance and then cut loose with a right and PUNCH,

left, full force, he might dent a chartotte LD ‘Robbed by the Umpire’ ie hav- ing an inning, again. But he hasn’t anything on ‘‘Won on a Foul,’’ which° is right to the front, too. JINX DOES A GOOD JOB. Or Dame Fortune insists on cutting Red Dooin’s splendid outfit down to the size of the rival clubs. . Dooin himself is a victim of Jinx, he being afflicted with appendicitis, making the sixth man of his regulars to be put down and out this season. Be patient, McGraw. If we can only lay up Alexander, Knabe and lLuderus, your club will be right in the hunt for the title. « * * HE’S BATTING DOUBLE BLANK.

We may add that it is confidently expected fully 23 snow checks will be issued at the box offices. ANY OLD FILLER WILL DO. ALLAHAN, Harry Lord and Ed Walsh are here for a series. With the as- sistance of six marionettes the Sox hope to be able to win a majority of games. s * 2 CAN THE BIDDER BE DIPPY? ELL, well! So Las Vegas is going to give up $30,000 to get the Johnson- Fiynn fight! Jack Curley will do well to scrutinize the origin of this bid carefully. They have a very large and well-stocked asylum at Las Vegas. * e = WHY NOT CHASE THE LOUIS DOR? J ACK CURLEY is not a good citizen. That fact became patent when he re- fused to take the Flynn-Johnson fight to Paris, in response to a big bid. If you must put this thing across, Mr. Curley, why not tap the Frenchman’s till, instead of that of your countrymen?

the ring. As a three other physicians were allowed to participate in the examination and their (pinions differed, but Dr. Gauen, the only one called upon to render an offi- cial opinion, decided that Randall had been struck low and was in no condi- tion to continue the bout. He was un- able, at that time, to determine the seriousness of Randall’s injury and said this might not develop until several hours later. Afterwards, in the dressing room, a further examination developed the fact trat Dr. Gauen’s first diagnosis was correct. The doctor gave it as his opinion that no permanent injury would result. No one regretted the unfortunate, and ii may be said unsatisfactory, ending of the bout more than Brewer. It was admitted by all who expressed them- selves that the blow was purely acci- dental, as Brewer had manifested great fairness up to the moment of landing the blow that sent Randall down. Prior to the foul Brewer had much the better of the mill and it began to look as if Randall would be a sure loser. Brewer was much the stronger of the two and was outboxing and outpunch- ing his lighter opponent. There seemed to be a difference of at least ten pounds in their weight, and this was a handi- cap that could not be overcome by Ran- dall’s cleverness and speed. Then, too, Randall failed to show the punch that had been expected of him, and after the second round Brewer deliberately stepped into several of them, as if to try their force. From that time on he seemed to have no fear of being hit and was less careful in his blocking than he had been. Randall had started out in an aggres- sive manner, and did most of the lead- ing, Brewer holding himself well in re- serve, but near the end of the first round he cut loose with right ’and left swings that drove Randall to cover. It was apparent that Brewer's strength was al! that had been claimed, and that he was a clever and experienced boxer. When the second round ended, Randall appeared to be worried, while Brewer appeared satisfied he had his man sized. He continued to permit Randall to do most of the leading in the following round, however, but had no trouble blocking the blows when he wished to, and whenever he assumed the aggres- sive Randall got the worst of it. I round to end matters, and from that time on until the unexpected ending of the bout, held the upper hand: He punished Randall severely in the fourth and fifth rounds, drawing blood in the fourth, and forcing Randall- ‘to frequentiy duck for safety. As the nhout wore on Brewer did not appear to be worried in the least by Randail's blows, while his own grew harder and they were rocking his opponent to the danger line. I am quite pdsitive that the blow which landed low and terminated the ‘bout so abruptly was accidental and ere was noth- REWER started out in the fourth [

For the first time in 58 years, Mrs. Joanna Schroeder, 6 years old, of Cleveland, was in St. Louis, her birth- place, Thursday. She made a special trip here to see how the city looked after half a century. After one stroll about the downtown section and one car ride to the West End, she departed for Cleveland, amazed and bewildered by the changes. She declared the trip here had been more than worth the trouble. Came From Chicago. “For years and years I have intended to return to St. Louis before I died,”’ she said to a Post-Dispatch reporter. She came from Chicago, where her son, William G, Schroeder, is vice-presi- dent of the Continental and Commercia? National Bank. Mrs. Schroeder is a remarkably well preserved woman. Her bearing {s erect and her step is firm, almost athletic. She was dressed in an unostentatious black frock and a gray wollen sweater. She asked for no guide but made her way about the city alone. She went first to Main street which was the most important street of the city when she lived here. She was amazed to find it completely over- shadowed as a business street. Fourth Street Changed. She remembered Fourth street only as one of the residence parts of the city upon which the business section had be- gun to encroach. There were more homes on it than anything else the last time Mrs. Schroeder visited it, in 1858. Her own home, in those days, was al- most out in the country, she remarked with a smile. It was on Tenth street, and there was then a cow pasture where today some of the city’s largest busi- ness buildings stand. As for the new Fourth street, Broad- way, Olive, Sixth, Seventh and other downtown streets, she said, she expected to find them built up as they are, but that it was impossible to conceive they were on the same land where she played as a girl oes to West End. Her staan car ride was on the Uni- versity line. She wished to see the site of the World’s Fair. Instead of get- ting somebody to accompany her, she had a clerk at the Planters Hotel to write the name of the car she was to take, and the name of the street at which she was to leave it. | She rode to De Baliviere avenue, walked over to the entrance of Forest Park, and then went back to her car. On her return downtown she said she had been delighted with the excursion. When Mrs. Schroeder, whose maiden name was Joanna Schaeffer, was a schoolgirl in St. Louis, she said, public schools were an innovation not yet used by those who were wealthy enough to send their children to private institu- tions.

The program for the plans was issued today. The new capitol building must contain more than 7,000,000 square feet and the cost must come within $2,500,000. Six per cent of the first million dol- lars expended will go to the architect and he will get & per cent of all over that amount. Drawings must be in July 1. will be left from the cost of the build- ing for improvement and grounds. SOLDIER FALLS OFF TRAIN, Leonard G. Helms, 2% years old, a pri- vate in a company of United States sol- diers bound for Fort Leavenworth, Kan., was killed when he fell from the rear platform of a Wabash train near Elm Point, three miles west of St. Charles, Mo., Wednesday evening. His body was found early Thursday by a track walker. Helms evidently had gone to the rear platform of the last car for a breath of] air after retiring, for his shoes had been removed. The platform was open and a lurch of the train, it is thought, hurled him off. His body rolled down an em- bankment, free from the tracks, or he probably would have been crushed by two trains which passed before his body was found. The fal! proved fatal, how- ever. Helms was the sen of Frank G. Helms of Wittenburg, Kan. His father was notified.
