Its Ban on \Board of Bishops Urges M. E. Church to Lift Amusements

iy SITUATION’, : aides Ques- 1 More Than Hour in They Recognize Gambling Is Same Sin in Wall Street as in Lowest Resort; but They Should Leave Decision to the People.

Effort to 3 By Associated Press. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., May 3.—‘*The American people are too far advanced longer to be restricted by church rules as to what their amusements shall be. The rules prohibiting dancing, card play- ing, gambling and going to theaters, cir- cuses and horse races therefore should be abolished.’’ This is the gist of a report presented today to the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church by the Board of Bishops. In recommending this radical change, the 24 active bishops stipulated that the church, however, should not be indiffer- ent on these subjects, but that the peo- ple should be left to judge for them- selves what is right or wrong in amuse- ments, having before them only the in- junction of John Wesley, which forbade “the taking of/’such diversions as can- not be taken in the name of the Lord Jesus.”’ Church Cannot Fix Point. The bishops declared the church re- iterated its opposition to theatergoing and gambling, but the rule in force since 1872 could not fix a point between ‘“‘the turf and the stock market.” The bishops’ report was delivered by _| Bishop Earl Cranston of Washington, D. C., and it formed the second section of the Episcopal address, the first half of which had been given the day before. “We would joyfully acclaim the day to Prosecute Politicians, METHODS, IS BELIEF iti i tenlains His Dis- . missal of Liquor Cases, : Which Circuit Attorney _ Has Looked Into, and De- A Following a new line of inquiry in its Investigation of the lid club situation: in Bt.

r failure to prosecute proprietors and wnen every Christian would abstain from the amusements which have been prohibited, but we can’t repress our con- viction that Wesley dealt more wisely with the danger. “The bishops therefore recommend a return to the consistent treatment of this subject by Wesley and the more earnestly because we are dealing with the American people and the intelli- gence of the twentieth century. “As a church we cannot approve danc- ing and theater-going. They are ques- tionable amusements. To us, as to sev- eral of our sister churches, they who justify these amusements as consistent with the spiritual life seem to manifest a deplorable lack of spiritual percep- tion. “Same Sin in Wall Street.” “Again we stand unitedly against gam- bling and we recognize clearly that it is the same sin in Wall street that it is in the lowest resort, but we have never ventured legislatively to fix the point where the racetrack gambler, from the turf to the stock market, be- comes a respectable business man eli- gible to church membership and- the chairman of the Board of Trustees. ‘In our absolute helplessness before this question we must continue to allow the world to suspect that the larger the stake and the more reckless of public wealth the gain, the less Vicious the crime, provided the winner pays tithes to frreligion or benevolence.’”’

Scares at : 8 Topp iy. Ba ‘ ‘mers j

One man was injured and about $1000 worth of plate glass was broken by a dynamite explosion at Vandeventer av- enue and Olive street shortly before noon Friday. The explosive was used by employes of the James Carroll Construction Co. in blasting for the foundation of a building to be erected on the northwest corner. The blast sent great fragments of stone flying through the air. Four large plate glass windows of the Steinbrook Importing Co.’s store on the northeast corner were broken and all the second-story windows of the same building on the Vandeventer avenue side were shattered. Frederick Stable of 3851 Washington boulevard was struck by flying stones and his face and head were cut. He was able to walk to his home, a block away. James Carroll, president of the con- struction company, after visiting the scene of the explosion, said that an em- ploye used bad judgment in setting off eight blasts at once. It had been the custom, he said, to set off not more than four at a time. . nent from the room also indicated ‘some that the Circuit Attorney's of- i © ‘might be under investigation and hat Sidener was asked to teli what he te about the acts of Circuit Attorney s in connection with lid club cases. opments are watched with inter- 4 Db politicians not only because hes and Sidener are contenders for Republican nomination for Cir- Atttorney, but because of the be- _ the grand jury is endeavoring n through Sidener and other wit- the identity of men of political ‘who have been acting as spon- s s for the lid clubs.

Henry Schroeder, charged with having embezzled $47,000 from the L. Bauman Jewelry Co., in the Century Building, by which he was employed as bookkeep- er, was found not guilty in a sealed ver- dict which the jury returned to Judge Rassieur Friday. The trial had lasted four days, and the verdict was reached after an-hour and 20 minutes’ delibera- tion. Six other counts are still pending against Schroeder. Assistant Circuit At- torney Shaner, who prosecuted him, said the State would proceed with the other charges. The count on which he was tried alleged the embezzlement of $300. Judge William Zachritz, who defended Schroeder, declared his acquittal had been expected and predicted he would also be freed on the other counts. Schroeder Thursday testified he had not taken a cent from the firm, but that it, on the contrary, had borrowed $20,000 from him at one time to save the com- pany from bankruptcy. He said he mortgaged his home, at Grand avenue 'and Humphrey street, to make the loan to A. L. Bauman. He denied testimony that he had admitted his alleged short- age to members of the firm. A. L. Bauman, testifying in rebuttal, denied Schroeder’s assertions. He de- clared the company was solvent and had never borrowed money. Experts who went over Schroeder’s books, he testi-

fied, had found a $47,000 deficit.

The robbers, who were masked, worked for two hours'*at fired two charges of the explosive, he said, but were unsuées ‘ stu They departed after the second attempt, leaving Brockman secur ly bound. The attempt closely resembles the robbery of the Columbia Theater, sev- eral months ago, when a watchman and a friend were held up by two al men and tied to seats. In that case | ; ibe robbers blew open the safe and got $4900. They escaped in an automobile and have not been captured. ite Atob} to Polise, This‘is the story Brockman ‘told the police: He had been on duty with an- other watchman until midnight, when be other man left. Brockman, who lives at 3605 Commonwealth avenue, in Ma- plewood, was “near the front of the big gilaundry building about 1 o'clock. A street car had just passed, its noise evi- dently prev enting him from hearing the footsteps of the masked men, as they crept up on him. Brockman thinks an- other passing car had also drowned the sound made when the robbers forced a window in the rear of the store, by Which they obtained entrance. When Brockman wheeled at the sound hehind him, and saw the masked rob- bers, he had no time to reach for the revolver he carried. . His hands went up. The men, he said, were of medium build, well dressed, and wore soft hats. Their masks were white handkerchicfs, which covered all their faces below the eyer. The trucks used in the laundry have a post at each. corner. The robbers laid Brockman flat on his back on a truck and tied: his, feet with ropes to the lower posts and his hands to the upper posts of the truck. Try to’ Blow Open Safe. Then they asked Brockman if there was not $500 In the big safe which stood in the laundry. Brockman said he did not know. One of the men calied him a liar and gave: him a: kick. But Brockman still insisted he did not know where any money was. The men then covered him with a tarpaulin, rolled the truck toward the rear of thé store and began work on the safe. For an hour the safe-blowers drilled and pounded at the safe.’ Théy knocked off the combination knob with a crow- bar and a hammer. They bored a small hole in the center of the doors and in this and in the cracks of the doors they placed laundry soap. Then they poured nitroglycerin into. the hole they had bored. Into the hole they ran an electric wire and to this attached a small bat- tery they. had brought with them. All was now ready for the explosion. But before setting off the charge the men .went into the rear portion of the laundry and obtained several blankets. Afraid to Cry Out, The men tossed the blankets into an electric washing machine, turned on the water and set the machine going. When the blankets were thoroughly wet, they) them to the safe. Brockman work, but was dragged could hear the men at afraid to call for help. When the men had covered ae: safe with the wet blankets, to muffle the sound, they set off the charge. It was so thoroughly muffled, says Brockman, that although less than forty feet away, the explosion sounded very distant. But the burglars were disappointed: From thelr exclamations, Brockman knew the charge had failed to blow the sefe. Brockman had heard the clock 2 Undeterred the men refilled the, safe with nitroglycerin and re- sated the opera after nearly an- other. hour's work. t the second ex- plostye had little more pond. than the} 3 first...

CON FERENCE "IS CALLED Georgia Manager Seeks to Reas- ~ sure Executive That Leader Is Loyal. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 3.—President Taft, who returned to Washington to- day, was amazed when told that ‘“‘Bos*”’ Barnes of New York was “feeling out” the situation with the idea that a ‘‘dark horse’ must be nominated by the Re- publicans. Henry Blunn of Savannah, one of the Taft delegates from Georgia, informed the President of the Barnes letter while Taft was at Fayetteville, N. C. He told the President also to him the letter con- veyed the idea that Barnes was seek- ing inférmation as to the number of Southern delegates to the national con- vention who will follow Barnes in a movement to nominate some other Re- publican than Taft or Roosevelt. So surprised was the President at this in- formation that he called in for a con- ference Henry S. Jackson, president of the Taft clubs in Georgia, and the lead- er who has been managing the Taft campaign in the State. Jackson accom- panied Taft back to Washington. Admits Getting Letter. Jackson told the President and the correspondent of the Post-Dispatch that it was true Barnes had written to all the delegates in Georgia instructed for the President. He said: “Three or four days ago I received a letter from Barnes in which he said in substance, ‘I am writing to you to get your suggestions as to what you think can best be done to secure the renomi- nation of Mr. Taft. As you no doubt know, while New York did not instruct its delegates for Mr. Taft, yet it en- dorsed his administration and denounced the recall of judges and decisions and the third term propaganda. Our dele- gates stand 83 for Taft and 7 for Roose- velt,’ “I think Mr. Barnes sent out this letter to bolster up Southern delegations named for Mr. Taft. Whatever his idea was, Georgia will stand solidly for Taft. If it is true that some of the Federal officeholders do not agree with me, they, almost to a man, are not ac- tive in politics and therefore not in a position to judge how the delegation will behave at Chicago.”’ The President would. not say what he thought of the Barnes letter, but it is known it will be the subject of discussion by the Taft managers in Washington today. It is known that some of the Taft leaders have for some time since the New York con- vention feared that Barnes’ action in holding out against an instructed dele- gation was to be prepared for a move- ment to nominate a dark horse. These leaders believe Barnes’ views are that the party is bigger than the man; that the bitter feeling btween the Taft followers and those of Roosevelt will make it impossible for Taft to be elected if nominated and that the party wants a winner. Factional Figzh In connection with the 5 oe sit- uation there is a story which shows the many factional] fights in the ranks of the Taft followers and which largely has had much to do with the present situation. Henry Blunn of Savannah is the pres- ent national committeeman from He was put in this office by Postmaster-General Hitchcock, against the wishes of the party work- ers. Blunn is not an enthusiastic Taft man. In fact, he is said to lean toward Roosevelt. He has been named as a delegate to the Chicago conven- tion. His pledge to support Taft was pro- cured in writing before the Taft man- agers in the State would agree to his being named. He was defeated for re- election as national committeeman by the very people who were four years ago forced to accept him. His defeat Was encompassed by the ald of the White House over Hitchcock's protest. Jackson has been elected to succeed him.

BARNES SAYS TAFT WILL BE NOMINATED By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, May 3.—Republican State Chairman William Barnes Jr. is quite positive he didn't write to any Southern leaders or delegates to the Chicago convention asking what they thought of Taft’s chances for the nom- ination, and whether it was advisable to begin looking around for a compromise candidate, *“T have written a letter to the dele- gates throughout the country informing them that the claim of the Roosevelt pporters regarding the delegates in ‘w York wag untrue,"’ said Barnes, d that’s all. And I haven’t even opened the replies I have received. I have never said I was for Mr. Taft, but Mr. Taft is going to be nominated— that’s a ten to one bet. “I don't know why the fact is over- looked that I’m not for ahy individual. It is a question of what the Republican party is.going to stand for. I'll meet the situation in Chicago when I get there, but you can say for me that Roosevelt can’t be nominated, and that Taft will be nominated.” “How about Taft being elected?” “That's another matter entirely,” said Barnes. “It isn't a question of electing anyone; it's a question of standing up for what we think is right.

City Auditor Hodges received notice from Comptroller Taussig, Friday, that he could add to the general revenue of the city $189,000 set aside last year for the contruction of the cells in the new Municipal Courts biulding. This, together with the $1,086,000 dis- covered as available for general appro- priations several days ago and some lesser items have since come in, give the treasury $1,281,536.27 more than the Comptroller thought was _ available when he directed the heads of the vari- ous city departments to make up their annual appropriations. It is considered likely that the, $189,000 will again be set aside for the jail. It was not appropriated last year because of the failure of the Municipal Assem- bly to decide wehether the cells should be of steel or concrete. Plans for Tennis Court This will leave something over "$1, 100,000 in the treaSury more than was thought would be available for the city’s ex- penses. Taussig said this would mean all departments would get more money than it was thought they would get a month ago. Park Commissioner Davis’ chances for a $15,000 appropriation to provide for eight baseball grounds, 32 tennis courts and free golf links in Forest Park are con- sidered bright. Taussig said he was in- clined to think the appropriation would go through. Health Commissioner Starkloff also planned to get an increased appropria- tion to carry on the campaign suggested by the Post-Dispatch against mosqui- toes in St. Louis. Oil on Stagnant Water. Assistant Health Commissioner Jor- dan said his department had asked for $5000 for sprinkling coal oil upon stag- nant water on property belonging to non-residents. The State laws do not compel non-residents to abate nuisances although, Jordan says, if the money were spent it could be recovered from the property owners and _ therefore would be in the nature of a loan. Jordan quoted Taussig as saying he thought such an appropriation would not be legal. Taussig told a Post-Dispatch re- porter he had no recollection of any conversation with the Health Commis- sioner’s department about the matter. 30,000 Open Vaults. Commissioner Starkloff, Friday, de- clared that the hands of his department are virtually tied in the proposed war on mosquitos and flies through want of money. He added that the department was doing what {it could, but that this little was scarcely enough to count. “If we could only get the co-opera- tion of individual property owners,”’ he said, ‘‘we could make much progress. There are 30,000 open vaults in St. Louis, to say nothing of sewer manholes, and ‘}on many lots are depressions filled with stagnant water. Coat to Owners Small. “At a cost of 5 Or 10 cents to each property owner, crude petroleum could be sprinkled over these places three or four times a year. This would gratly lessen the number of breeding places for flies and mosquitoes and would do more than anything else to- ward accomplishing the task of freeing St. Louis of these pests.”’ The health department is sprinkling petroleum over all stagnant pools pos- sible. While there is no direct appro- the department has been drawing on the general fund for ,} sanitation supplies. Dr. Starkloff reported the conditions to the Board of Health Wednesday. The board promised to support a bill to be introduced in the House of Dele- gates toabolish the 30,000 =a vaults. What Honolulu Is Do He pointed out that, while cy depart- ment is asking only $5000, the city of Honolulu has appropriated $145,000 for a similar fight. This 1s $45,000 more than St. Louls allows her entire Health De- partment, including salaries. In a recent interview he said $30,000 would make a good beginning in the war on Jjnsect pests. Davis’ plans for turning Forest Park Into a great public playground are rap- idly developing. He said that if his de- partment got the $15,000 asked for, in addition to the baseball grounds, tennis courts and golf links, a general athletic field would be established on the leve] ground at the foot of Art Hill, with a running track and the other necessary equipment for outdoor sports.

Managers and captains have now been appointed for all the public schools that are to be represented in the Public School Athletic League, and the lists are complete, The Jackson School, Madison and Ho- gan streets, is the last to comply with the formalities and get in line for the medal contests, but it starts off with such a rush that schools that have been in a longer time may be overtaken. After’ Walter H. Wilcox, the principal, had appointed Leon Pollack of 1600 Knapp street to be captain of the Jack- son School squad, he called the boys of the school together and submitted the appointment to them for their approval. They approved enthusiastically and 34 boys were enrolled in the Athletic League for a starter. The number will be increased. Training was begun and will be pushed with vigor. The Jackson School meet will be held in connection with the school picnic, which is to take place June 1 at Normandy. Real spring weather has given an im- petus to the training. Squads are out each afternoon at the parks and play- grounds and on vacant lots running and jumping and putting the shot in preparation for the school meets. Near- ly all the meets are to be held in con- nection with the school picnics and will leonstitute attractive features of the pic- nic programs. ‘Many of the principals are giving their personal attention to the arrange- ments and are planning to have the meet on such a scale as to reflect cred- it on the schools.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 3.—The body of Col. John Jacob Astor rests today in the reception room of his . ancestral home, Ferncliff-on-the-Hudson. Mrs. Madeline Force Astor, the beau- tiful young widow, was waiting in the great mansion when the body of her husband was carried in on the shoul- ders of lifelong servitors and today this young widow, whose poignant erief is further complicated by the uncertain- ties of motherhood* close at hand, will be in seclusion with her dead. Mrs. Ava Willing Astor, the former wife, was not present. That Mrs. Ava Willing Aster was not present caused no surprise. If she ex- pects to be present at the funeral, the fact is not admitted. It is possible the two women may meet when Lewis Cass Ledyard reads Col. Astor’s will, after the interment in Trinity Cemetery, at the Astor town house on Fifth av- enue. It is expected both women will be provided for in this document.

Well, that is just what is happening all through the retail clothing business—not alone in Saint Louis but throughout alc United States. Nearly every retail clothier in the country has heard of our glorious success with “Edgemere” clothes. Some of them have copied our ad- vertisements, but, so far as we know, not one has successfully copted “Edgemere”’ styles for less than $20. There is nothing to prevent them from ad- vertising $20 suits for $16.50, un- fortunately, but there are enor- mous obstacles to prevent them from delivering the goods. We overcame the obstacles first. Then we could one fully advertise There is nothing to equal “Edge- mere’ $16.50 clothes in any other city in the United States. Louis is the one and only city, large or small, where the people can ob- tain genuine $20 qualities in clothes for $16.50. And the Werner & Werner store is the only store that has. “Edgemere” clothes in the only city that has them! Suppose somebody in the same line of business that you are in would come along and offer a $20 article for $16.50; or a $200 article for $165; or a $2000 article for $1650.00. What would happen?

Spring weather, with its sudden ee its cold, raw damp winds, is bad for rheumatic sufferers. It starts the aches and pains, the twinges and tortures. But every rheumatic suf- ferer must remember that the weather is not the cause of rheumatism. It merely arouses the slumbering rheu- matie poison and the poison is in the blood. The only way to reach the trouble and cure it is through the blood, Lin- iments, oils and other external appli- cations may relieve the pain tempo- rarily but to cure rheumatism—teally cure it, so that it will stay cured, the poison "must be driven from the sys- tem. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills do this. They enable the blood to absorb oxy- gen, the oxygen changes the rheu- matie poison chemically so that it is excreted from the body through the skin, bowels and kidneys. At the same time the blood which always becomes thin in an attack of rheuma- tism is built up and the system is guarded against another attack. As long as the blood is kept rich and red there is no danger of rheumatism. Mrs. J. T. Sloggy, of No. 4009 Thompson avenue, Tacoma, Wash., says: ‘‘A few years ago I suffered a great deal with rheumatism, being confined to my bed some of the time, was under a physician’s care and was unable to do any work. I was also troubled with indigestion. When spring came I was thin and nervous, had a poor appetite and was broken down in health generally.

AUCTION | BRINGS cna! Articles Started at Low Price, Run to High Figures Before Financier Gets Them. a

At an auction sale of the personal property of the late Mrs. Josephine | Brinckwirth, results of which were an- nounced Friday, objects of art brought high prices, with John 1. Beggs bidding against relatives of the former owner. The sales brought $10,000, of which Beggs paid $4000 and J. G. Grone, one of the relatives, $4000. Other relatives paid the rest. . Mrs. Brinckwirth was a member of the Grone family, one of the old German families of St. Louis. She died intestate and Harry Troll, Public Administrator, took ciarge of the estate. Her home, 4511 Lindell boulevard, was sold recently to Murray Carleton: The household furnishings and bric-— a-brac were sent to the art rooms of! the R. U. Leonori Auction and Storage | Co., Grand and Lactede avenues, where | the sale took. place. Beggs Is Chief Opponent. J. G. Grone, J. B. Grone, William Nolker and several members of the Griesedieck families, all relatives of Mrs. Brinkworth, were there to keep the articles in the family. Bexzgs was their only important opponent. The first clash came over a, gold-in- crusted Limoges dinner set of 345 pieces. J. G. Grone started the bidding at $126, | and the set finally was knocked down to Beggs for $360. Beggs won the next contest also. It was over a marble statue called “The Fisher Boy.”’ Grone started the bidding at $100 and Beggs ran it up to $675 be- fore he was declared the winner. Grone won the next contest, for a painting by Verboeckhoven, paying $260 and the next, for a water color by Ro- sati, for $100. A painting by Caille, started by Grone at $60, was bid in by Beggs for $300. Lyman Hay Gets Parlor Set. Lyman T. Hay, manager of the Jef- ferson and Planters hotels, got into the bidding in a contest for a five-piece par- lor set, which he won for $200. Beggs ran the bidding for a statuette, ‘“‘The Young Savoyard, * to $250 and got it. For another piece of sculpture, the “Tratore di Giacchio,’’ Beggs paid $675. Besides these many other articles of virtue sold at high pricves. Oriental rugs brought from $10 to $350 while small pieces of bric-a-brac brought prices in porportion. Rhine wines sold at from 7 cents to $2 a bottle, while champagne brought, the current wholesale prices. MRS. VANDERBILT JR.’S APPENDIX REMOVED Condition After Operation Re- ported Favorable and Recov- ery Is Expected. NEW YORK, May 3.—Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt Jr. underwent an operation for appendicitis at her residence in Fifth avenue, it is reported. Her condition today. is said to be highly favorable, and ft is believed she will recover rapidly. Mrs.. Vanderbilt, before her marriage, was Miss Virginia Fair, daughter of the millionaire, Senator Fair of California. URGES MARRIAGE REFORM Former Judge Williams Suggests Health Certificate With License. Former Judge George H. Williams in an address before the Medical Society of the City Hospital Association at 3523 Pine street, Thursday night, advocated legislation to compel certificates of good health to be filed before marriage licenses are issued, to abolish common- law marriages and to prevent marriages of children. While these revisions of the laws would rob marriage of some of its sentiment, he argued, they would benefit the race. The address was part of a discussion on the influence of heredity on children. The Rev. Father F. J. O’Boyle of St. Louis University and Dr. M. Spitz, edi- tor of the Jewish Voice, took the stand that the influence of heredity is over- rated and that environment plays an important part in the lives of children. MOTT QUITS THE BELL

~~ —_ ee ct ce > « ~—- It is unfortunate that men who assume to speak for the Terminal combine—one an eminent at- terney—should minimize the decision of the United States Supreme Court as of little ef- fect and should give the impression that the arbitrary will be abolished only in name, to re- appear under an ingeniously contrived terminal rate. The Terminal is put in the attitude of re- senting the court’s action and of devising schemes to wreak its anger on St. Louis by devising new forms of Oppression which will evade the tech- nical prohibitions of the court.. These utterances are unfortunate, because they arouse suspicion of the good faith and just in- tentions of the railroads, and thus render it dif- ficult to establish a fair basis of mutual under- standing and co-operation between them and the St. Louis people. It will be more unfortunate for the railroads if they accept these counsels of resistance and evasion. We cannot conceive of greater folly than an attitude of contempt for court decisions on the part of-.railroad managers. We cannot imagine a more disastrous railroad policy than that of reflecting on the judgment or the fair- ness of the highest tribunal of the land; of at- tempting to prove that its decrees are shams of little or no force and effect; of convincing the public that cunning, high-priced lawyers can de- vise methods by which the railroads can evade and nullify Supreme Court decrees; that there is no remedy in the courts for wrong and graft on the part of powerful interests. The railroads have reaped sufficient whirl- wind from sowing the wind of popular suspicion and discontent by unfair dealing. If they now resent just decisions and enter upon a course of deliberate evasion and nullification, they will reap something worse; they will strengthen anti- railroad agitation and fill the quivers of dema- | gogues who urge the people to adopt revolutionary remedies which threaten the foundation of con- ‘| stitutional government. The Post-Dispatch has fought the monopoly abuses of the Terminal combine, but we are not enemies of the railroads; we do not attempt to injure them by assuming that they will resist and evade the clear decrees of the Supreme Court, or that they are determined, regardless of justice and law, to deal unfairly with St. Louis. We assume that the railroads will submit to the court’s orders in good faith. We assume that the wrongs and monopoly abuses which have been handed down to them, having been pointed out and forbidden, will be eliminated. We credit them with the wise and sound intent to place St. Louis on an equality with other cities, as the court ordered and as the judgment of every ef- ficient railroad manager approves. Nothing could exceed the absurdity of the sug- gestion that, in lieu of the arbitrary, the rail- roads will charge mileage rates for terminal serv- ice. The scientific railroad method of handling combination terminals is to create a zone of free delivery embracing the entire system of common terminals. The Mississippi River dividing the Terminal combine should have no more bearing on rates than the Chicago River or the Hudson River or a viaduct over a thoroughfare. Thia is the policy on all rates outside of the 100-mile zone. Why not inside, making allowance for higher local rates? We would regret to learn that we are mistaken n the temper and intent of the railroads. We seek fair dealing, peace and co-operation. But we are prepared to renew the war if forced to it. fue conseyverces will be neither pleasant nor profitable to the railroads.

This week’s scenes at Halifax have perhaps had no counterpart since the great wreck on the Welsh coast of which Charles Dickens wrote with such a sense of overpowering tragedy. The sea gives up its dead with reluctance. We may doubt whether, from a wreck in midocean, as many victims were ever recovered as from the Ti- tanic. The Royal Charter, from Australia with $1,- 700,000 in newly dug gold and much wool, went down off Lianallgo on a wild night late in Octo- ber, 1859. The 500 persons aboard, many returning, after long absence, with their fortunes, perished. Nearly three times as many drowned from the Titanic. Ocean disasters will diminish in fre- quency in the future, but when they do come their horrors will be progressively magnified, be- cause the wrecked ships of the future will carry so many more people than the wrecked ships of the vast. Dickens visited Llianallgo on the last day » 1859. Bodies were still coming ashore, and i

The melancholy cel hae Solute D ct received the! anxious relatives who trooped to the place, and in eight weeks wrote with his own hand ‘1075 re- plies to somber letters. “My dear brother had bright gray eyes and a pleasant smile,” was the only means of identification furnished by a woman. Dickens thanked God ‘that the poor sis- ter would never know how far this was from describing the brother washed ashore. Substituting telegraph operators by wire and wireless for one Overworked postman, and mak- ing allowance for other unimportant differences, much of what the novelist said of the Welsh town might describe Halifax under the depression of the great sorrow. “So much of the scanty space of the churchyard was already devoted to the wrecked people,” he wrote, “that the villagers expressed many doubts whether they then:selves could He in their own ground with their {fore- fathers.” The Halifax cemeteries will probably hold many unclaimed bodies.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Not a Lid Club. . To the Editor of the Post-Dispatgh.. In Monday’s issue of the- Post-Dispatch, under the caption, “Thirteen Lid’Clubs Visited by Juror Hoke,” we should like to ask why The Printing Trades Club, 413 Locust street, should be men- tioned in the same breath with a lid club. The club’s quarters consist of three floors at 413 Locust street. The first floor contains an assembly hall, parlor, reading room and library consisting of an immense collection of rare@eooks of history and fiction. The second floor is de- vvted to pool and billiards, with sanitary shower baths. The third floor is set aside for a buffet and refreshment parlor, together with telegraphic service, reporting results of baseball games by innings. The Printing Trades Club is no money-making proposition for some certain individual or politi- cian, and should not be confused with other clubs bearing names pertaining to the printing in- dustry. The membership consists of gentlemen con- nected with the allied printing trades, strictly, and none but union men holding working cards in their respective unions are eligible. Women are strictly prohibited. The officers of the club —president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and a board of control of nine members—recelive no salary for services rendered. The Printing Trades Club is operating under a bona fide State charter, and complies with the law strictly. The Printing Trades Club is held in high esteem by the Police Board, as we.cause no trouble to the police, and probably with a single excep- ticn—that of a monetary point of view—we con- sider: ourselves in the same category as the Mer- cantile, Missouri and Noonday Clubs, In a word, it is an organization whith the allied printing trades may feel proud of, and deserves their hearty support. E. H. GIBBONS, president. J. E. CHAPLER, secretary. R. D, GEARY, treasurer. (Members Typographical Union No, 8.) In Behalf of the Babies. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the St. Louls Pure Milk Commission, held on April 19, it was moved that the Board of Directors of the Commission express to the Post-Dispatch their thanks for the financial aid rendered the Pure Milk Commission in the past years. As secretary of the Pure Milk Commission, I' wish to extend my personal thanks for the favors rendered, and trust that this coming summer we may receive the assistance of the Post-Dispatch in our work of helping the poor babies to receive sufficiently prepared modified milk. H. E. MORTLAND, Secretary, Editor Stead. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, The reason Mr. Stead “always shut down on the subject of spooks” when his reverend Pres- byterian friend brought it up, was that Stead knew and his friend did not. The occult can- not be proved by talk. The minister’s remark that Stead was “a very sane man on most things,” is absurd, especially as the minister admitted that Stead “could get anywhere and get any- thing he wanted.” There is not in all Great Britain a mind more sound than was the mind of Editor Stead. He simply knew more of the laws of nature than did his friend. These laws have not changed in the least since St. Paul’s day. SOCRATES MUNSON. Decline in Church Attendance. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I see in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch Cardinal Gibbons says there is a decline in church attendance. Here are some of the causes of the average man's lack of sympathy for the church. First thing you see on entering the church is the, table with the money exchanger by it. Of course, the rule is no more entrance fee, but it ts too good a thing to be dropped. What chance has a man with a small income and a big family, who does not fee] like begging a seat, in-the House of the Lord? Then, again, he sees the well-dressed race-suicider in the front pew; of course, he’s got the price! Why? The average reverend ifkes to associate with the oe ee Se ees See ae money pe.

Wilson’s candidacy is favored by a larger number of Democrats in Texas than that of any of the other gentlemen who are seek- ing the Democratic nomination. Our own opinion is that a clear and very] considerable majority of the Democrats of Texas desire the nomination of Gov. Wilson. If he does not get the Texas delegation, it will be because his sup- porters are more apathetic than his op- ponents, or because they are less de- termined than his opponents. Unhap- pily, the primary convention system, as a means of ascertaining the will of the majority, is about the poorest method that could be devised. It is not the larg- est crowd, but the most experienced and pugnacious crowd that usually deter- mines the result of these primary con- ventions.

UNWARRANTED CHARGES, From the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Whatever may be thought of the use- fulness or futility of the ‘‘Money Trust’’ probe that has been authorized by the House of Representatives, there can be little sympathy with the charge that it is a “hold-up” game planned by the Democrats to wring campaign tribute out of the coffers of Wall street: Hush money of this kind could be of no avail, even were the Democrats to seek it or Wallstreet to attempt to bestow it. The preceeding is so completely in the open that charges like those of Republican Leader Mann, that the investigation is a “come-and-see-me” proposition, are ridiculous.

DEPLORABLE, From the Denver Times, The dignity of the presidential office is not going to be augmented by the campaign of personalities in which Mr. Taft and Col. Roosevelt are now in- dulging. ~It bids fair to become more and more objectionable as it progresses. But it seems only fair to the President to call attention to the fact that he re- frained from methods of this kind untii. as he himself expressed it, his manhood compelled him to defend himself. Per- sonalities were first brought into play by Col. Roosevelt and he has forced the President to hit back in order to protect his own name. The whole thing is deplorable.

Immortals Limited, From the Pittsburg Post. “My boy,” inquired a visitor at a North Side school, “dan you name the Forty Immortals?’ “There ain't that many. When you mention Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Fred Clarke and a few others you have to stop.”

From Satire. Transient: You are getting to be quite a city here, aren't you? Native: You bet. We've had the mili- tia down here three times this year and the State Board of Health twice. Not bad, eh?

The rainy season is about gone, and Cricket Hicks is preparing to trim down his umbrella and make a parasol out of it. The editor of the Tickville Tidings an- nounces through his columns: this week that he will allow nobody to talk for publication until he gets in his new supply of quotation marks. Last night Sidney Hocks in his dreams saw some large, mysterious looking animal settling in front of the blacksmith shop. Though he looked closely he failed to identify it, and he will go to sleep early tonight in an effort to more thoroughly inspect it. Tobe Moseley has gone over to the Calf Ribs community to look for some seed from the celebrated wandering gourd vine that created so much wonder in that section last summer. This vine, once it sets into growing, wanders around over all the adjoining farms, and is very little trouble to the owner, it being never at home. When the frost begins to fall and the gourd@ get yellow, then the owner draws in the vine and gathers the crop. — Hogwallow Kentuckian. PROSE POEM. The morning sunlight loves to play along some little alleyway. It says “There may be someone here the better for a bit of cheer. Some mother toiling in despair and weary with a mother’s care. Some heavy heart made light again for sunlight dancing on the pane. You cannot tell what dreary place a little cheeriness may grace, or what turned turtle one may right with turning on a little light.” You may kave seen it shooting beams .of old joygiver in the seams, and dumping cures for aches and groans upon the dirty cobblestones. It likes to gravi- tate about, and knock a pillow window out, Or thrust a sliver through a slit end see what cheer: will come of it. A troop of little evils hide in nooks and crannies, terrified, and many a valliant ray of light inquires if any" care to fight. A beam will turn upon its back and quickly wiggle through @ crack, and many a one will smile population going through. The Palace Barber Shop.

AM always glad when the spring has come. Something delightful is bound to happen to one in the spring—that golden time, when a man opens the windows of the heart and lets in the sunshine—and usually a new tenant with it. And what more de- lightful can happen to one—than a GIRL in the spring time? May is moving time in the heart; when old lovers move out and new loves move in; when we sweep out the cobwebs of cynicism. and the dust of indifference, and tack the notice, *‘To Let’ upon the door. Pshaw! Old loves, like old lamps, burn low and fitfully. It takes a new heart-interest, now and then, to keep up the glow of life. And, at this time of the year, a chap doesn’t stop to think of the girls he has loved and lost, but of those he MIGHT love and WIN. That is why every pretty girl he meets looks like a possible “aitinity.” You never can tell just when or where you may run across the One Woman—the lifetime tenant, for whom you have been waiting and searching. But you are sure that she must be just around the cor- ner. In autumn you may despair of ever finding her. By winter you may be glad that you didn’t, and that you are still a bachelor. But in the spring you feel convinced that she is somewhere near, and waiting for you. From the moment you get up in the morning you are-on the quest. All the way downtown to. the office you are looking for her. You peer surreptitious- ly under every flower-decked hat, in the hope of finding her. You glance down ' the line of little stenographers and clerks in the street car; for who knows that she may not be among them? You crane your neck to catch a glimpse of a face in a passing motor car—perhaps the Ideal Face. You risk your life to glance after a pair of French heels, and are furious with the police- man who rescues you, because he doesn’t seem to understand. Policemen are so material. But, in the words of the im- mortal song, you “MUST love someone,” and you usually end by falling in love with the nearest one. That is the pity of it! You can fall in love with only ONE if you are at all fastidious. More than one love, in a springtime, would be gross, sordid, in- artistic. Yet it gives you a melancholy feeling to think of all the girls you nev- er: can love—all the girls who would appreciate being loved by a man like you or me. A chap’s heart is filled with pity for them and for himself. Ah, well! There are many springs. And a man can only do his best. I cannot remember a spring when [ have not been in love. Yet, I have al- wavs been exceedingly fastidious in my choice of a Spring Girl. I cannot imagine a man falling in love with a widow at such a time.

Neither can I fancy falling in love with a chorus girl in spring, and above all, I cannot think of myself as falling in love with a divorcee, even the young- est and most beautiful divorcee. No, the spring girl, to be quite perfect, must be in the springtime of life, with the dew still fresh on her mind and heart and lips, and never a weed of disillusionment among the flowers of her dreams. Can you remember your first spring girl? Of course you cannot. Neither can I remember mine, though I remem- ber very distinctly “the day and the way we met.” It was quite by acci- dent, of course. That is the only way to meet a spring girl, to come upon her unexpectedly as you might upon a clump of arbutus or a violet in the woods, To go out purposely, bedecked in your frock coat, with a definite engagement to meet her, is fatal. As for remember- ing her, that would be fatal, too, and exceedingly impolite to all the ‘other spring girls since. Besides, she has un- doubtedly forgotten YOU. And, as Swinburne says: The best and the worst of this is That neither is most to blame, If she’s fotgotten your kisses And you've rest otten her name.

Betty Vincent’s Advice Lovers’ Promises. F you make a promise, raise heaven and earth to keep it. Young men and women are much too careless

about the giving and keeping of. the word of honor. The modern stand- ard needs to be raised in this respect. The young man who “breaks a date”. for some trivial and unimportant rea-. son is more at fault than he realizes. He has promised to be at a certain place on a certain moment, and he has bro- ken his promise. And I, at least, am old-fashioned enough to think that breaking one’s word to @ woman is a particularly bad betrayal. However, the girl who forgets or dis- regards her engagements is not to be admired. | Of course, it is justifiable to break a promise to marry, when love is gone— but in that case the lie would be in keeping the letter of the plighted word. Beware. : ©. writes: “My flancee secreily e met a former sweetheart; also she went to a dance without mé, pre- tending she was going elsewhere.

JENKINS is coming fh from East Malaria today M and she’ll be up to the house to see the children, and then we’re going shopping,’' said Mrs. Jarr, as Mr. Jarr was preparing to depart downtown for the duties of the day. Mr. Jarr paused, for he knew more was coming. “And Mr. Jenkins is coming up home with you to dinner and then going home with Mrs, Jenkins.’ “Well, I’m agreeable,” Jarr. “So, don’t sodacl to tell Mr. Jenkins,”’ added Mrs. Jarr. *‘Doesn’t he know?” asked Mr. Jarr. “She forgot to tell him,” was the answer. ‘Sd she telephoned me last night to tell you to tell him today.” “How could she forget to tell him this morning—she remembered to tele- phone you. last night?’ queried the amazed Mr. Jarr. “Oh, don’t be nosey! Maybe they are not speaking,”’ was the reply. “Suppose he won’t come home witb me to have dinner with us and his silent bride?’’ said Mr. Jarr. **He’ll come, all right,” was the an- swer.. “It’s only when a woman is genial and amiable to her husband that he doesn’t do as she wants him to. All men tréspass on women’s patience when the women are too good-natured. But a man always sticks around when a woman is mad at him and is just bursting to tell something very import- ant.”’ “All right, I'll bring old Jenk home replied Mr. with me,’’ said Mr. Jarr. “Tie a string around your finger so you won't forget,” cautioned Mrs. Jarr, “because we want to keep in with the Jenkinses, now the winter is over.

Jarr Family Their place in East Malaria is very nice to visit on pleasant Sundays, and, of course, if we entertain them they'll have to entertain us. Our children like to get out in the country in the summer and it doesn’t cost anything except the carfare when one has friends to visit in the suburbs. So get home early and bring a nice steak from Bep- ler’s butcher store, as you come by with Mr. Jenkins, and an extra loaf of bread and a can of corn and some strawherries and any nice salad you may see.’ “Can't JI send out the children for those things when I get home?” asked Mr. Jarr. ‘I hate to carry bundles.”’ “You hate to do anything I ask you!” retorted Mrs. Jarr sharply. Mr. Jen- kins brings home.froOm the city almost everything the Jenkinses eat. They had grape fruit all winter. And Mrs. Jen- kins tells me he got the nicest, juiciest ones and only paid 8 cents apiece for them. Sometimes, when they were es- pecially nice, Mr. Jenkins used to bring home a couple of dozen grape fruit at a time. You wouldn’t do that for me.” “Carry two dozen grape fruit? I guess not!”” said Mr. Jarr. “And then you ask me why we don't live in the country!’’ exclaimed Mrs. Jarr. ‘‘Well, will help you carry the things. — won’t be so high-toned, and it is won- derful how many things a_ suburban man can carry at a time. One would think they had extra arms like spiders. Anyway the children have to go shop- ping with me for Mrs. Jenkins.” “Why’s that?’’ asked the good man. “Because she’s getting things HER children, stupid!’ said Mrs. Jarr. “Gladys, her little girl, is now fourteen and Aubrey, her little boy, is twelve, and the railroad ccnductors insist they

~|/MAN ACCUSED OF SHORTAGE MISSING

Disappears After Helping Wife to Celebrate Her Birthday. Detectives are looking for Charles Pil- lar, 6683 Theodosia avenue, who disap- peared Sunday night after assisting at a celebration of his bride’s birthday, when they ‘entertained a house full of guests at their home. Pillar was employed by the Fox Tailor- ing Co., 618 Pine street, and for four months has conducted a branch shop at 1110 Franklin avenue. His employers say they have discovered a shortage of be- tween $700 and $1000 in his accounts and have obtained a warrant for his arrest on a charge of embezzlement. Pillar, who is 44 years old, was married in Jacksonville, Tenn., nine months ago. His wife, who is 24 years old, was an actress. Their Theodosia avenue flat is comfortably furnished, but Mrs. Pillar told detectives Friday that the furniture was bought on time payments and that some of the payments are past due. She

HOPE OF PEAGEIN. MEXICO TURNS 10 NeW COMMISSION |§ Washington Officials Lay Stress on Plan of Madero Congress to Treat With Rebels. WASHINGTON, May 3.—The appoint- ment by the Mexican Congress of a Peace Commission to treat directly with the revolutionists for a cessation of hostilities is regarded by State Depart- ment officials as very significant. It is believed by them to indicate that the Mexican Congress, wearied of the long darwn-out insurrection, has determined to act on its own initiative in endeav-j. oring to terminate the war, No indication has reached heer as to whether President Madero has given his approval to this actio of Congress. The British cruiser, Algerine, will ar- rive at Mazatland, State of Sinola, on the west coast of Mexico, in about a week to take aboard any British refu- gees who may desire to leave Mexican territory.

LD TE RENE > DANDRUFF AND FAL BKENS THE HAIR: LING HAIR STOPPED 3 % For generations Sage and nd Sulphur e i have been used for hair and scalp troubles. Almost everyone knows the value of such a combination for - keeping the hair’ a good even color, for curing. dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair, and for promoting ° the growth of the hair. Years ago “the only way to get a Hair Tonic of this kind was to make it in the home, which was troublesome and not always satisfactory. Nowadays, almost any up-to-date druggist can ‘supply his patrons with a ready- to-use product, gkillfully prepared in perfectly equipped laboratories. _ fn ideal preparation of this sort is Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair * Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur SSQgK gE are combined with other” valuable remedies for scalp troubles and thin, weak hair that is losing its color or coming out. After using this rem- edy for a few days, you will notice the color gradually coming back, your scalp will feel better, the dan- druff will soon be gone, and in less than a month’s time there will be a wonderful difference in your hair. Don’t neglect your hair if it is full of dandruff, losing its color or coming out. Get a fifty-cent bottle of Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur from your druggist, and see what a few days’ treatment will do for you. All druggists sell it, under guarantee that the money will be refunded if the remedy is not exactly as repre- sented. Wolff-Wilson, 524 Washing- ton Av.—ADYV. —_—— (z Want 2 “mame Name This Bird!!

Jones for Circuit Attorney and the nom- ination« of City Marshal Charles P. Weinbrenner for Public Admirfistrator and Republican City Chairman Frafik Slater for Sheriff, has been formed dur- ing the past few days, according to members of the Republican City Com- mittee. The combination contemplates the dropping of Harry Troll as Public Ad- ministrator and his retention as attor- ney for Weinbrenner in the event of his nomination and election. The attorney's fees of the Public Administrator's office amount to as much as the fees of the Public Administrator. Howe in Lead. The moving spirits in the combination are Jeptha D. Howe, former Republican boss, who is eager to renominate Jones, his brother-in-law; Harry Troll and his half-brother, Charles (Cap) Troll, who have a large political following in South St. Louis; City Chairman Slater, with as much of the Republican organization as he can control, and Marshal Wein- brenner, with his political following. The three offices, Sheriff, Public Ad- ministrator and Circuit Attorney, from the point of emoluments and influence, are the most important for which new officials will be chosen at the November election. The fees of the Public Admin- istrator’s office, according to belief in political circles, aggregate more than $20,000 a year; the fees of the Sheriff's office about $12,000 and the salary of the Circuit Attorney is $6000. Three candidates are already in the field for Circuit Attorney. Prosecuting Attorney Howard Sidener and Attorney George B. Webster have announced that they will enter the contest against Jones for the nomination. Weinbrenner Switched. Jones and Sidener are already in a bitter warfare, each criticising the other’s record. Weinbrenner originally had intended to run for Sheriff, but switched to Public Administrator when he was'informed that Troll would not enter the contest for renomination if he was assured of being retained as at- torney. Slater recently was elected Chairman of the City Committee by the new Stifel - Kriesmann - Kiel combination. Kiel told the committeemen months ago that he was going to enter the race for the nomination for Sheriff, and his friends expressed surprise that Slater had decided to go into the _ contest against him. George Riechmann, another member of the committee, is already making an active canyass for the nomfnation, and it is probably that Committeeman Nat Goldstein will also run. With atmost one-half the members of the City Com- mittee seeking nomination for office the prospects of slate making are not so alluring as in former campaigns. WOODROW WILSON IS ILL Candidate at Home With Cold, Breakdown Denied. TRENTON, N. J., May 3.—Gov.

KOSHER FOOD IN HOSPITAL A compromise between the Reformed and Orthodox Jews of St. Louis has been reached through fhe plan of in- kitchen in the $7%,- 000 addition to be erected at the Jewish Hospital, 5415 Delmar boulevard.’ The orthodox branch had announced a de- cision to build its own hospital, where only Jewish cooks, nurses, attendants to which none but Jewish patien would be admitted. This plan has been abandoned. f The compromise was brought,-about by the Orthodox Committee and/a com- mittee from the Central Jewish Council. The additional kitchen at the hospital will conform in every respect to the Jewish dietary laws and all patients who so desire will be housed in a sep- arate part of the building, served with “kosher” food and attended by Jewish nurses. The hospital, however, will continue to admit patients of all na- tionalities and employ Gentile physi- clang. 7 - —————e Bive Ribbo By acquiring the stock of the Fech- heimer-Kiefer Co., makers of the well- known Blue Ribbon Clothes, the Well Clothing Co., at 8th and Washington v., is enabled to launch a selling event of unusual magnitude.

HEN the schedule makers decreed that Friday May 3 should be an Open date in St. Louis, they inadvertently made themselves solid with the Crippled Cardinals—who weren't crippled when the schedule was Made. There'll be no defeat chalked up nest the Ex-Wreckers this afternoon use no game is scheduled, but the eas, like hungry wolves after raw theat, will stick around to renew hos- ties Saturday and wind up Sunday. owever, those Reds will find a dif- nt team in the field Saturday. “Pewee” Hauser, that all-wool short- who has been ailing for a week, promised to wiggle into harness guard the gap between Huggins and rey. Steve Evans had discarded ® splints from his right fist and will -chase in right when the matinee ns tomorrow and, with George El- in left fleld, the team will be prac- y intact for the first time in ten . With this battle array the club lidpes to start its season all over again. a Here’s a Bad Record. e Cardinals have lost nine of their last ten games. Their lone victory ce April 16, when they wound up a rious series at home, has been ned against the Cubs. That was bout which Larry Chance tossed way in Chicago. But by losing ne out of ten games the club has -canned from first to last place. The game fate has befallen the {ill-fated Phillies, who are crippled by the ab- @ence of three regular players. Dooin’s Jinx-ridden club was tied with the : Rogues Friday for last place, ng. fallen from the top just like the mtry did. "s only one reason why the sanguine ra of the Robison Field cadets should give up. That is the fact that the Car- jails “were off to this same bad start last ar, but later rallied and fought its way © first division by July 4. zt Was Worse Last Year. "On May 14 a year ago, the Cardinals had @ reaywd of 4—14. Then the club opened abroad against the Hastern clubs and won 6 out of 11 games. “What the team did for the remainder of the season is a matter of ory. The pitchers—Harmon, Sallee and Crave rounded to after getting away to a a up near the top on July 4 and had a nce. to stay there had they not lost their de ah the Bridgeport wreck. Anyhow, start—just like they did this spring— won game after game. The Cardinals |

ROGER MUST REMAIN IN HOSPITAL FOR 10 DAYS ANAGER ROGER BRESNA- HAN of the Cardinals will remain a patient at St. Luke’s hospital for 10 days on the order of his physician, Dr. Louie P. But- ler of 4661 Maryland avenue. Bresnahan was removed to the hospital Thursday evening after his condition devetoped seriously. Fri- day Dr. Butler made the follow- ing statement to the Post-Dispatch. “Mr. Bresnahan has had a series of colds and an attack of tonsilitis since the spring series games and now he has developed a slight at- tack of bronchitis. There’s noth- ing really serious in his condition, but he is not fit to play and he’s badly in need of a rest. I think he will profit by a stay in the hos- pital. He’ll probably be ready to play as soon as he’s discharged.

the team put up a gallant fight and wiped out the memory of thelr disastrous spring start. They may repeat that performance later this season—and they may not. But It’s too early to desert the ship. With Hauser and Evans in the line-up Saturday, the. club should be greatly improved. while it is un- likely that Harmon, Sallee and Steele will continue to uncork punk performances. This trio of pitchers figure to win as many games as they lose and they are sure to hit their stride soon. ‘When they do the club’s at- tack will improve and the team may show a resemblance of its old self. At present the Cardinals are shot to shreds. There is no life to the team. The batting is weak and the pitching is weaker. A big slump has rammed the good craft amidship, but slumps never last all sea- son. The loss of Bresnahan is a sad blow on the eve of the first series with New York. How- ever, the return of Hauser and Evans will help as, both these men figure to outhit their substitutes—Smith and Wille. A practice game was scheduled for Fri- day afternoon with Lee Magee’s Yannigans bucking the Regulars, ———— |

Reds Gain Revenge for Bumps Handed Them by Cards in 191 1

Cardinals have dropped five out of games to the rollicking Reindeers of this season, and victory No. 5, Thursday, was the most decisive Red sh to date. The tally was 10—0, per- the Reds still to pace the field in the Ligheh League derby, pursued by the Cham- pion Giants.

The one bright play credited to the Cardinals was pulled by Miller Huggins. In the first inning the Rabbit singled to right and advanced a station on Miller’s demise. Then Oakes drove deep to Mitchell. Mike owns a great whip. Hug knows this as well as any man in the game, but Hug tricked Mike to-wit: After the catch Hug took a liberal lead off sec- ond. Mitchell cocked his arm for the throw, Then Huggins retreated, but just as soon as Mitchell let his arm fall, the Rabbit legged it to third in safety. He crossed Mr. Mitchell and made Mike look bad, although this seldom happens. For the third time this season, Ed Koney went hitless.

CHICAGO, May 3.—The range of prices for the Flynn-Johnson world’s champion fight at Las Vegas, July 4, will be $25, $20 and $10. This was the statement of Jack Cur- ley, promoter of the fight here, last night. He added that the arena, if filled to capacity, will net the promoters $150,000. This would mean a paying in- vestment, he said, for all concerned. Las Vegas promoters were anxious for a& general admission ticket, but Curley ruled against it, pointing out that the patrons of the fight would be eager to pay an extra amount to be sure of a place of vantage. Jim Flynn and Curley left for the scene Of the proposed match last night, Fiynn to begin his training and Curley to superintend the building of the arena.

‘Diamond Glints | No game in St. Louis today.

The last. Cards are last; the Browns second Their standing ig the same. The Reds have lost only three games to date. Two of those defeats were suffered at the ha=ds of the Fred Clarke’s Corsairs. Wait until New York gets a crack at the Reindeers! McGraw’s champions, with Matty up. will beat the Rhinelanders as sure as shooting. in five years Matty has lost one game to the Reds, Hats off to Grover Laudermilk, that elon- gated right-hander discarded by the Car- dinals last fall. Grover is carrying the Louisville club into first division, having beaten the champion Millers, 3—2, in 10 in- nings Thursday. Laudermilk probably could win in the National League if he ever got the proper trial. Jimmy Williams. ex-Brownile, is regularly for Minneapolis these days. Jimmy had a field day Thursday. He nicked three hits out of four times up and accepted 15 chances in the field without the semblance of a miscue. That’s a rare feat! playing Otto Williams, the St. Louis boy, got three hits out of four times up, but the In- dianapolis nine lost again. Tough on Goose Hill Jimmy Burke! Johnny Kling, Boston manager, is out with the tip that the Giants will come West, fat- ten up at the expense of the Occidental teams and own such a lead by June 1 that they never will be headed. Somebody ought to put Johnny wise to the fact that this year’s schedule calls for 154 games. Hub Perdue, once with Cincinnati, won his first four games for the Boston Braves, same being one reason why Kling’s counter- feiters still are in first division. This Larry Doyle, captain of the Giants, is a funny feller. The box scores says Larry went to bat twice but scored three runs. Takes a guy like Larry to pull that stuff. Big Jeff Tesreau, as big as Big Jeff Over- all was when the latter flung for the Cubs copped another game for the Giants. ‘‘Tes’’ set the Phillies down with eight scattered hits and won going away. The Giants swiped five bases on Catcher Peaches Graham of the Phillies. Four hits’ out of five times up for Fred Merkle. Thé collection included a double and two triples. | Yankees won! G.

Wray’s WHAT’S A PARADOX? A PARADOX, fellow fans, is a $250,000 baseball club which can depreciate in value, in the esteem of followers, and yet advance to $500,000 in value to its manager. Such a club is our own Cardinals, accord- ing to testimony at the hearing of the Brit- ton-Steininger case. On the theory that ‘‘the last shall be. first,’’ perhaps we can see where Manager Bresnahan would be right. But not -this season. . * * DUE TO “COMB BACK.” THE SURPRISING UPHEAVALS in the National League—yes, and the American, too—may be followed by reversals later on. With but 15 games played of the 154-game schedule, there’s ample time for the sick ones to mend, the weak ones to strengthen and the front runners to grow weary. In fact, the clubs that are leading now will sur- prise most fans greatly by holding their positions beyond the middle of June. Exceptional weather and training condi- tions preceding the schedule opening are largely responsible for the existing condi- tions, . * . REDS DESERVE SUCCESS, THERE IS LITTLE DOUBT but that Hank O’Day is this year getting the “goods” which the Reds were generally expected to deliver last seagon, but which failed to materialize under Clarke Grif- fith, In fact, the team is better in its pitching department than last season, and has a spirit that it totally lacked in 1911, It plays with snap and dash. Those who gave the club a look-in for the first di- vision last season have still better reason for believing in the team this year. - oe = GIANTS HAVE THE GOODS, New York is the only club that ap- pears fit to take Cincinnati's measure right now. The tragedy of the Dooin Phila- delphia outfit, whereby that club has been completely wrecked, for the time being, and Boston, Brooklyn and New York fig- ure to halt a bit when they get through playing each other and face ~~ op- position. ne * . ee HOW THEY NOW APPPAR. A concensus of opinion as to what the two leagues’ clubs may reasonably hope to do, based on developments to ‘date, would read something like this: AMERICAN LEAGUE. Chicago—Due to drop back to fourth or fifth place, owing to ordinary infield and expected falling off in hitting. Club is strong in pitchers, who are now keep- ing up the club, Boston—The contender. Just now the best balanced team in the League, save the Athletics. Washington—About June 15: goes Griff, coming back.” Walter Johnson team. Cleveland—Not now at its best hit- ting strength, but does not figure much better than its present position. oe same old 1911 thing over ag Detralt-Pitchers away off now, and Crawford not hitting.’ First division, later, St. Louis—An improved club over last year, but uncertain as to pitching, New York—Another hard-luck club. It's pitching ought to land the club high up in the race. Team is now shot to pieces, but may recover. NATIONAL LEAGUE, Cincinnati—Fourth piace or better. New York—Appears the most substan- tial team in the League, ooth in indi- viduals and management. Boston—Playing ‘‘out of its head,” right now. Chicago—Permanently ‘“‘cracked,” in the opinion of many. It’s future is up to form shown by pitchers. Pittsburg—Wili be in the fight for a one, two, three berth. Brooklyn—As usual). St. Louis—Not doing Itself justice. improve when its troubles end. Philadelphia—Jinx is running this club. Ig last, should be first, or near there. * ° ~ KNOCKOUTS MEAN LITTLE. BUILD NO ‘white hopes’? on a mere knockout record as carefully developed in rising pugilist by far-seeing managers. For example this Luther McCarthy, 6 feet 4 inches in height, whose match with Cari Morrig caused a little political teapot tem- a= **There Strictly a Whi

Column pest at Springfield, Mo., has a string of knockouts in his short but busy career that may attract attention. All sorts of “‘hopes”’ and ‘‘has-beens’’ have fallen before his prow- ess, according to his circulated record. But he’s little more than a big husky who has a world to learn about the game. HOW DIFFERENT Now, THERE'S CARL MORRIS himself. Be- fore hf left Oklahoma he was flattening them all out via the sleep route. Since that time Carl hasn’t ehown anything that resembles a knockout. Then there’s also Abraham Attell, whose record at one time in his career had noth- ing else in it but the K. O, sign. Abraham, when he came to St. Louis in 1901 owned 37 knockouts. At least that’s what Jack Mce- Kenna vouched for. Yet thereafter Abe’s time was largely spent in ‘‘tin-canning’”’ away from the punches of the opposition. Knock- outs vanished almost completely from his repertoire. The conclusion ig that knock- outs early in a scrapper'’s record signify little more than the weakness of the oppo- sition. When it comes to picking out a man who is to meet Johnson just waive the candi- date’s preliminary ring period.

Several of the runners, especially the vet- erans, complained Friday that the warm weather would prevent a record-breaking per- formance. For a Marathon race to be run in record time there must be a chill .in the air. Indications are that Saturday will be warm and the old record is, for that reason, pretty secure. Officials of the race met Thursday evening and everything was put in readiness for the start. Unofficial announcement also was made that this probably will be the last race over the Freeburg course.

But Umpire Egan, who hasn’t given the Browns an even break in any of the six series he has worked with them, said the ball struck Derrill’s bat. Stovall rushed up to the plate, and even after he had funbuttoned Pratt’s shirt and showed the offi- cial where the ball had made a red mark on his back, Egan refused to let him have his base. Stovall kicked, but was only rewarded by being chased from the grounds.

' Browns Missed Three‘Chances

| Had Frank Laporte not struck out with men on second and third; had Pratt not missed a hit-and-run sign from Krichell; and had Lake or Austin come through with any kind of a hit, the Browns wouldn’t have been forced to accept the nothing end of a 1—@ count against the Tigers yesterday. Ralph Works, a right-hander, one of Hugh Jennings’ in-and-outers, served his first ful) game yesterday. He was constantly in trou- ble. Brownies getting on in all but two of the nine rounds, but he was just good enough to prevent them from crossing the pan, southpaw, was selected by Manager Wallace to face the Tigers. But Bill was as wild as the proverbial March hare. The wonder of it all is that the slugging Tigers didn’t get a million runs at the start. Bailey opened the matinee by passing Bush. Then on @& hit-and-run play, Vitt singled to left, but Donie got no further than second. Cobb, in attempting a sacrifice, laid down a perfect bunt. That filled the bases. but Crawford’s best was a roller to Pratt. whose toss to Wallace forced Cobb at second. While this was going on Bush paid off. It left Vitt on third and Crawford on first. They tried a twin pilfer, but this was foiled by Krichell and Wallace. But Batley continued wild and heaved a high one to the grand stand, on which Crawford moved to third. He also passed Delahanty, but Gainer ended it with a lift to Hogan. It was in the opening inning that the Browns missed their best opportunity. Shot- KIRKWOOD GOES TO NAPLAND FOR BOUTS George Kirkwood, the crack featherweight boxer who makes this city his home, left Thursday night for Cleveland, O., where he expects to get on with some of the 122-pound- ers in that city. He has under advisement matches with Johnny Creeley, Patsy Branni- gan and Cal Delaney. From Cleveland Kirk- wood will go on to New York City and wil! remain in the East so long as he can keep busy. He has never been east of Chicago, but has boxed with success throughout the West. Kirkwood picks Al Wolgast to beat Jose Rivers, the Mexican, in the match sched- uled for July 4, but is somewhat dubious regarding the lightweight ‘champion’s condi- tion. TWO NEW LEADERS NOW IN TENPIN CLASSES Two new marks were set in Thursday's city tenpin championship bowling on the Washington alleys. In the five-man team division the Old Lynch Ryes are still scratch leaders with 2826, but the Wagners have shoved fhto first place in the handicap class, 2915 being their count with the allowance. Of this 875 pins were given them. Kressig, in the individuals, went to the top of both scratch and individual classes, His scratch score was 687, making his handi- cap figure 670, Curtain and Lynch did the best bowling tn the doubles, 1220 pins. But it wasn’t enough to dislodge the leaders. — ----o——- Has “Come Back.” NEW YORE, May 8.—Billy Papke of Iill- nois, shaped tp like a real champion middle- weight against Billy Leech, the erstwhile cop, in a short séssion of boxing at the Na- tional Sporting Club last night. After Papke had knocked Leech down five times—twice in the first round and three times in the seo- ond, the seconds of Leech threw a towel inte the ring as a signal of surrender. And thus ended in less than four minutes of actual fighting the hopes of Leech and his friends that he would some day wear the crown of the middleweight champion. ww Palmer and Ashe Draw. PHILADELPHIA, May 8.—Eddie Palmer, the New Orleans negro, was able to earn & draw in his contest with George Ashe at the Broadway Club last night by -@ great rally in the last two rounds. For the fret two rounds it appeared as if Ashe were go ing to have things his own way, dut he weakened and in the last round was forced to hold on.

A vv Dufresne Hurts Shoulder; Quits. LEWISTON, Me., May 3.—'‘‘Irish Paddy”’ Callahan of Brooklyn won his fight with Napoleon Dufresne of this city last night when the latter suffered a dislocation of the shoulder in the fourth round. These men met in Boston last winter and Callahan won in the same way.

Pelky Defeats McDonough, BOSTON, May 8.—Arthur Pelky of Chio- opee won an easy victory over Jack Mo- Donough of 8t. Paul, Minn.. last night be- fere the North Zerkshire Athletic Club. Mo- Donough was in better condition for a fat man’s convention than for the prize ring and at no time showed any ability. a os Williams Put, Out Young Ketchell. BALTIMORE.

Concordia Meets Valley Nine, The Concordia Seminary basebail team will play the Missouri Valiey Cojlege nine at c. B. GC campus this afternoon. Game will be called at 2:80

to Avoid That Shutout Defeat ton got a life when Works fumbled his tap. Bert deserved a hit on the rap. Then Aus- tin bunted safely and both runners advanced on Stovall’s perfect sacrifice, That put it up to Laporte and Hogan. but the French- man struck out, while Hogan’s chased Cobb into deep center for his poke. Another good chance to break into the run column came in the fifth. Pratt started this session with a scratch single, while Wallace paraded. Krichell, at the bat, gave the hit and run sign. He bunted and the ball went straight to Works. The lanky pitcher fielded it cleanly and passed in time to Moriarty to force Pratt. Had Pratt At the start Bill Bailey, because he is & — not missed the sign, he would have been on the run when Krichell bunted and would have been safe at third. Then Lake’s long drive to Delahanty would have tallied the youngster. Manager Jennings, because his team has been going badly, made a big shift in his lineup. He benched young Louden, who has been playing third, and George Moriarty, the veteran, made his debut of the season. Jim Del. was sent to left field, exchanging places with young Oscar Vitt. The new combination proved a winner and will prob- ably stick for a time at least.
