FATHER GIVES LIFE TRYING TO SAVE SON FROM "DEATH POND’
Alfred Froehly Jumps Into Deep Water in Abandoned Quarry After Boy and Both Perish. {3 HAVE DROWNED THERE ee
Bodies of Two Latest Victims Re- covered by Grappling Hooks After Many Hours’ Search. Alfred Froehly, 51 years old, of 3859 Kosciusko street, gave up his own life in an unsuccessful effort to save that of his 12-year-old son, Lawrence, in a dan- gerous abandoned quarry pond at 3800 South Main street, where, neighbors say, there have been 13 drownings in the last two years, Pond.”’ It is known as “Death The bodies of father and son were found in 35 feet of water at 9:15 a. m. Saturday, after a searching party had been dragging the pond with grappling hooks for hours. Froehly and his son were fishing in the quarry pond, the bank of which is nearly 20 feet above the surface of the water. According to 10-year-old Joseph Kelbe, son of Fred Kelbe of 3852 South Main street, there were three eyewitnesss to th drowning. The Kelbe boy told the police that he end his father were standing on the south bank of the quarry shortly be- fore 8 p. m. Friday. They saw Froehly and his son on the opposite bank in the moonlight. Lawrence suddenly umped up and ran to his fishing pole. The clay bank gave way with him and he fell into the water. Joe Kelbe says Froehly at once jump- ed in after the boy. There was a short struggle and both sank, He says a lit- tle girl who had been standing on the north bank of the quarry also saw the Crowning and called out: “Oh, look at the men swimming with their clothes on!’’ 2000 PERSONS SEE NEGRO BURNED AT STARE, TYLER, TEX. Lynchers Make Girl’s Assailant Sign Confession of His Guilt. . IN PUBLIC SQUARE , Torch Applied After Doomed Man Was Bound on Huge Pile of Wood. TYLER, Tex., May 2%.—Dan Davis, a negro, was burned to death at a stake in the streets of Tyler early today, after he had confessed to attacking Miss Car- rie Johnson of this city, a week ago. Two thousand persons participated in the lynching. Davis had signed a statement confess- ing to the assault, but before the match was touched to the pile of wood on which the negro had been bound by the mob he was again asked if he was guilty. ‘IT am guilty,’”’ he cried, and a moment later the flames were leaping high above his head. Mob Awaits Confession. Davis was brought here early today from Athens, Tex. When members of the Sheriff’s posse arrived at the jail with the negro they were confronted by several hundred citizens, who waited until Davis had written his confession, then demanded that he be turned over to them. Officers and citizens who had gathered inside the jail protested but finally sur- rendered the negro to the mob, whose numbers made protest useless, the of- ficers say. From the jail Davis was led to the public square where several wag- on loads of wood had been piled. He was tied to a rail and after he reiter- ated his confession, a match was ap- plied and the flames enveloped him. Crowd Watehes Fire Burn Out. The mob stood around the fire until it had died down and little was left but charred bones and ashes. PYRE Former St. Louis Beauty Will Marry Grandson of Famous English Duke

Evidence of Crisis Coming. Out of the mass of conflicting re- ports that have come to the State and War Departments as to _ the, actual situation in Cuba, the conclu- gion was drawn today that a crisis impends in the island and that this : is sufficient to justify full prepara- : ig tions for the protection of American Pale interests. Therefore word was passed to the Navy to hold itself subject for call and early this afternoon two divisions of the great Atlantic fleet were un- der orders to rendezvous at New York x eee Hampton Roads. : State, Department officials inclined to Y ihe assembly of this force at Key West. While willing to adopt that suggestion, if requested to do so, the naval officials believe that until the ships are actual- ly needed in Cuban waters, they will occupy a better strategic situation at these northern ports. It is pointed out that contrary to the common belief, even News York, much less Hampton Roads, is not so very much further away from the eastern end of Cuba, where the trouble exists, than Key West. The Navy Department does not ex- pect that the battleships, as such, will be necessary for Cuban operations, but it happens that they furnish the only convenient means of providing a suf- ficient number of the “always ready” - marines at various points on the Cuban coast to afford protection and rallying _ points for Americans on the island. Believe Marines Will Be Enough, ‘The first and second divijons of the fleet carry about 600 of sea sol- diers, which force, it is believed, in ad- . @ition to the marines which will be con- ‘ecentrated at Guantanamo when the . Prairie arrives there next Thursday *** morning, will be sufficient. 7) - The immediate neea for these ma- >) tines is believed to be in the neighbor- -—— hood of Nipebay, on the north coast - @f the east end of Cuba, where an in- -vestment of nearly $20,000,000 of American money is represented in the great sugar _ plantations, tron mines and other indus- tries, within a range of 2 or 30 miles. © The naval force is ready to start in @® moment's notice, and the fute De- partment, which must -give notice, is waiting for the developments of the near future.

“Look before you leap” The United States Government says there are 140,000 families in St. Louis, 750,000 people and five English daily newspapers, One of these five papers, the POST-DISPATCH alone, sells as many papers in St. Louis and suburbs as there are homes in the city, which means, by the law of averages, that the POST-DISPATCH is read by practically all of the English-reading people of St. Louis. The big, successful, up-to-date merchants of St. Louis have for over 30 years been trying out these five daily mediums, and have discovered that the direct profitable method of reaching all of the people in this field, all of the time, is through the columns newspapers as advertising of the POST- DISPATCH, as Friday, when they placed dise will follow.

) ES Club Shooting—Another Pris- oner Has Bride. Three men arrested in St. Louis Sat-| urday confessed to the police that they robbed 28 rooming houses in St. Louis this week and 90 in Chicago last week. The prisoners are Edward (Shanty) Burthardt, % years old, of 437 Lucas avenue; Fred Klefish, %, of 2247 Mont- gomery street, and Harry Price of 3028 Bell avenue. Price, who is 18 years old, is a brother of Oscar Price, who was shot in front of the Hiawatha Club Thursday night. It was when searching for the persons who shot Price that de- tectives found the rooming house gang. Six women whose roomin, ouses were robbed in the last few 25 iden- tified Burthardt, Price and Klefish at detective headquarters. How the Men Worked, The men worked in pairs, going to a rooming house and engaging a room, taking a valise with them. As soon as they were left alorie they would begin ransacking the house. They seldom re- mained more than an hour. In Chicago, they confessed, they robbed an average of six houses a day. They would fill thelr own grip with clothing and jewelry, and usually stea! another from the house and fill that. They would then slip out of the houses and take their loot to pawnshops and dispose of it. Mrs. Carrie Kannenstein of #00 Mor- gan street Was one of the first of the rooming house keepers to reach de- tective headquarters Saturday. She tm- mediately identified Burkhardt and Klefish as the two men who rented a room at her house and stole $200 worth of clothes and jewairy from the rooms of Miss Gertrude Hempstead and Oscar Winge. The other rooming house keepers who identified the prisoners were Mrs. L. E. Smith, 3907 Delmar boulevard: Mrs. Fred Zeller, 1332 St. Ange avenue: Mrs. W. A. Bullard, %38 Zindell avenue; Mrs. Lulu Scheindlin, 718 North Garrison avenue, and Mrs. W. H. Lawyer, 5175A Easton avenue. Burthardt and Klefish told the po- lice that Price had been operating with the crowd only two or three days, They took him in to teach him the game, they said. He had been in only three or four jobs when he was arrested. Bride Calla on One Prisoner, Burthardt was arrested in 1903 for robbing rooming houses. At that time he told the police that he was a pupil under others. He turned State's evidence, after pleading guilty and taking a sentence of five years. and was paroled. He was recently married to Miss Nora Wyrick. His bride went to police headquarters soon after he was arrested and tried to get him released on bond. She said she believed that a mis- take had been made and was sur- prised when she was told her hus- band had confessed. She gave the police a gold watch which she said her husband gave to her last week. If it had been stolen, she said, she] did not want it.

LEAGUED WITH EUROPEANS Secret Service Notified of Story . Told by Man Who Threatened Carnegie’s Former Partner. PITTSBURG, Pa., May %.—William D. Pastorious was sentenced in Criminal Court here today to serve four to six years in Riverside Peniten- tiary after being convicted of sending -@ bomb to Alexander R. Peacock, for- mer partner of Andrew Carnegie and Millionaire capitalist, and attempting to extort $5000 from him. Pastorious, it is said, told his attor- ney, A. C. Stein, details of an alleged plot to assassinate President Taft. The plans, he said, were made in New York. It was Stein’s purpose to have Pastorious tell his story in court, but this was abandoned, and the entire mat- ter was placed in the hands of Govern- ment officers here. Attorney Stein further said Pastorious .told him he was a dupe of European anarchists and asked that secret service. men be sent to him that he might give all the information in his possession. The prisoner asserted that the alleged plot was the result of the abrogation of the Russian treaty. Attorney Stein has taken up the matter with the Govern- ment officials and has notified them of the story told by the prisoner. When asked if the prisoner’s attorney had anything to say, after passing of sentence, Stein told the Court the story as told by the prisoner, adding that he could see no reason why = sentence should be postponed, that the prisoner had always maintained his innocence of sending the bomb to Peacock, but that he had told an inconsistent story and he had advised him to plead guilty.

Quest for Butterflies to Take St. Louisan Into of Scorpions
©.C. POLING Entomologist Will Seek New Va- rieties Where the Hydrophobia Skunk Abounds. O. C. Poling, an entomologist of St. Louis, is making preparations to star: on his eighteenth annual expedition into the Southwest in search of new varie- ties of butterflies. He will be accom- panied by A. J.:Rehn and Morgan Heb- bard of Philadelphia. Rehn, accor4- ing to Poling, is connected with the Philadelphia Academy of Science. Poling took up the study of entomo:- ogy as a hobby 25 years ago, he says, after taking a scientific course at Illi- nois State University, and his private collection of North American butterfli2- is unsurpassed by any in certain gen- era. He values it at $20,000. Poling and his companions will go »5y rail to Tucson, Ariz., and drive south 90 miles across the desert to the Bab- oquivaria Mountains on the Mexican border. The first 40 miles of the wagon trip will be over the big Cactus Des- ert, where the giant cacti attain their greatest size. The remaining 50 miles lie across an open, sandy desert. Poisonous Mountain Spring, The trip will be made with a mule team and water, for both men and beasts must be carried in the wagon, as there are neither wells nor streams along the way. There are no settle- ments of any kind, either in the desert region or at the mountains. After arriving at the mountains, Pol- ing says, the party will depend on a single water hole for its water supply The only other source of water i" that region is a mountain ‘spring, | the flow from which is so highty: charged { with copper as to be vfoltently’ poilsori-‘ ous.

‘abreiebay EVENING, MAY 25, 1912. s_ |ALVESTON OPENS GREAT CAUSEWAY TO THE MAINLAND Last of Thrée Great Works Planned After Disaster of 1900 Is Completed. ROADWAY -COST $6,000,000 Former Storm Endangered Island Becomes Securely Intrenched Peninsula. GALVESTON, Tex., May 2%.—With Gov Colquitt and other State officials present and with thousands of visitors here from every portion of Texas, the new Galveston causeway, which links the city to the mainland with a con- crete roadway, was thrown open to pub- lic traffic today. Gov. Colquitt had is- sued a proclamation for a state-wide holiday. The causeway cost the city $6,000,000, half of the sum being con- tributed by the railroads. The opening ‘of thé causeway marked the conclusion of a 10-year battle of Galveston against the Gulf of Mexico. The trinity of great protective works fortifying the Southern city securely against tropical storms has been com- pleted. City Walled in and Raised. The people who placed a concrete sea- wall four miles long and 17 feet high between their homes and the hurricane- whipped waters of the Gulf of Mexico, who then hoisted their city 17 feet in the air, flush with the seawall, by pump- ing 16,000,000 cubic’ yards of sand from the bottom of the ocean bed to raise the grade, have finished the two-mile con- crete causeway that makes a peninsula of Ga:veston Island. The completion of the causeway marks “Finis’’ cne of the greatest municipal works ever undertaken. It is the epic of a handful of men who, after a night of terror, saw the sun rise upon the storm-swept ruins of a historic city. Those men were not specially trained, they were average American business and professional men. The morning of Sept.. 19, 1900, they were confronted by chaos. Over night the city has lost by death 6000 of its citizens. The hurn- cane had swept. through their city, de- molishing $20,000,000 in property. Death and desertion lessened the population of Galveston by more than 10,000 persons in the next 12 months. A Year to Clear Wreckage. Fewer than 30,000 persons were left in a city where high-piled wreckage hid the bodies of relatives and friends, where martial law was instituted and where the. first labor of clearing the debris «nd burying the dead lasted nearly a year. The terrific havoc wrought by the storm of 1900 had caused the faint- hearted to take such of their families as survived and move ‘to the mainland. It was practically a picked band that stayed to work out the city’s destiny. Those who stayed were imbued with firm faith in the city’s possibilities. They formed the “old guard” of Gal- veston, to whotn the completion of the seawall, grade raising and causeway holds a personal triumph. The census of 1910 gives the city a population -of 36,981, which is almost equal to the highest count before the disaster, and the renewed growth has only fairly begun. CLUB CLOSED AFTER MYSTERIOUS SHOOTING “Gang Ethics” Defeat Police Ef- fort to Find Who Shot Al- bert Price. Defeated by ‘“‘gang ethics” in their attempt to learn who shot Albert Price of 3028 Bell avenue, in front of the Hiawatha Club, 2802 Olive street, the police have closed the club and con- fiscated its charter. Capt. O’Brien, commanding the Laclede Avenue Police Station, sent word Saturday to Joseph J. Murphy, manager of the club, that he must go out of business at once or invite prosecution. John, alias ‘‘Doc’’ Donovan, of 3208 Lucas avenue, was arrested’ Friday night, at Twenty-ninth and Morgan streets, after two other men: under ar- rest had told the police Donovan and Price were with them in the club before Pti¢e was shot, early Friday morning. All three of the men were taken to Price at the city hospital for identifi- cation. He declared he never had seen any of them before.

{LORIMER'S FRIENDS GIVE UP AND RINT THAT HE RESIGN Vice-President Sherman Goes to Chicago After Poll of Sénate Is Taken. 16 VOTES ARE IN Illinois Supporters See No Chance to Win When Vote Is Taken. WASHINGTON,. May 25.—Senator Lorimer of Illinois will receive word direct from his friends in the Sen- at. that they can not hope to save him in his fight for the retention of his seat, While it is not admitted that Lorimer will be urged to resign, it was said he might decide on that couse. Vice-President Sherman is believed to have arrived in Chicago today. Whether his visit has anything to do with the reported collapse of the Lorimer defense was a matter of conjecture, as the Vice-President was reported to have left the train at Englewood, some distance from the heart of the city, and to have given no hint of his destination. The poll of the Senate shows: Cer- tain for Lorimer, 40; certain to oppose him, 39; doubtful, 16. One vacancy. The attitude of the Senators whose votes are classed as doubtful has caused ogg friends of Lorimer to give up hop Datneugh nearly a week has gone by since the poll was made the Lorimer supporters have not been able to add one name to their list. Those classed as doubtful have refused to give the Lori- mer mem any indications of their inten- tions. Lorimer men were forced to the con- clusions that the list of doubtful votes was too large to give them any chance to win if the tase were brought to vote. It was decided, therefore, to submit the exact situation to Senator Lorimer. There was no one of the Lorimer sup- porters authorized to speak for the junior Illinois Senator today, but it was argued that he should resign and not further uselessly embarrass his friends in what they felt would be a futile bat- tle. It was argued further that Senator Lorimer should be content to rest on his former victory and the fact that a ma- jority of the committee which investi- gated the charges in the second time, had reported in his favor. Finally it was agreed that the only thing that could be done would be to present the situation to the Senator him- self. His health has been impaired throughout most of the present session and he has been unable to remain here to look after his own interests. It was thought that he might be influenced to abandon the fight on that account. One severe blow to the Lorimer forces was the knowledge that Senator Curtis of Kansas, who voted for Senator Lori- mer last session, would be against him if the case again came to a vote. This offsets the gain by Lorimer of Senator Jones of Washington, who last session voted against him. COEDS’ VOTE AGAINST THE SANITARY KISS Northwestern Seniors Favor the Old-Fashioned Way—Girls Also for ‘‘Fussing.”’ EVANSTON, IIl., May 25.—The senior class of Northwestern University took a secret vote for or against the “sanitary kiss.” The vote was almost unanimous against it. The class numbered 170 men ond 113 girls. Secretary Drugge of the class said: ‘This means that we consider the anti- germ kiss and sanitary kiss advocated by physicians to be ‘bunk.’ The class believes in kissing in the old-fashioned way. Why, the doctors would cut all the flavor out of osculation and leave a kiss as dry and mechanical as a clinic.” The girls took a vote on “fussing,” the college girl term for ‘“‘spooning.’’ The ayes had it by a big majority. ‘The class will be graduated within a few weeks and has but a short time to do any college “fussing.” In the vote on kissing each member of the class received a card on which to record his or her choice of kisses. “With one accord, the class of 1912 tubooed the sanitary kiss as a reform too premature for this century,” says the secretary’s report. “All called for the good, old-fashioned, unimpeded smack. One woman said that men never would succeed in business if they did not adopt the ‘direct delivery’ system.” A general report on the habits and ap- pearence of members of the class also was made. A feature of the report was the ‘sizes of the women’s feet, none wearing smaller than a No. 2 shoe. The largest foot reported admitted a seize cof No. 6.

BREAKS AEROPLANE ENDURANCE RECORD IN FIERCE STORM Paul Peck, Half Mile in Air, Im- periled by Sudden Wind and Obscured by Clouds. ' NEW YORK, May 2%.—Paul Peck, in a Columbia biplane, was nearly half a mile up in the air over Long Island when the first flash of lightning was seen in the west as last evening’s storm came up. He started to descend. Clouds swept under him and shut him from the view of the anxious watchers below except when lightning flashes revealed him making desperate efforts to keep his airship on an even keel. The wind was blowing 40 miles an hour. Fre- quently a gust would catch the biplane and whirl it dizzily. Watchers got lanterns and built fires of gasoline to guide the aviator to -safe- ty. But the crowd had given up hope of seeing him alive again, when in a vicious gust of wind and in the heav- lest part of the downpour he landed. As he touched the ground there was a vivid flash of ligthning which made the land- ing the most spectacular feature of his flight. Peck was unhurt, but he said it was the most thrilling experience in his life. There were so many “holes” in the air, he said, that several times his craft nearly captized. The hail beat into his fact, almost blinding him. He said he had to “feel” his way down and had no idea where he was until he touched the ground. He was unable to see the sig- nal lights at any time. If his engines had stopped for a moment, he said, he would have been dashed to death, as nething could have prevented the bi- plane from turning turtle. Peck started for the endurance record at 3:20 and in the first hour flew up 2000 feet. Then he dropped 500 feet. He remained in this altitude for an hour and then rose to 3000 feet. He was at that point when he saw the storm com- ing and immediately started to descend. Peck broke the American record by staying in the air 4 hours 23 minutes 15 seconds. The former American record for an endurance flight was made by Howard Gill of Baltimore in a Wright biplane. He remained in the air 4 hours and 17 minutes. Peck is getting ready to fly to Wash- ington from Governor's Island, he hav- ing been designated to carry the United States mail. DAMAGES FATHER’S FURNITURE $1000 Horace Russell Pours Ammonii on Carpets, Breaks Up Things, Is Arrested. In the Page Avenue Police Station, Saturday morning, Horace Russell was in a penitent mood for his conduct of Friday afternoon, when, in anger, be- cause money had been refused him, he entered the home of his father, Frank D. Russell, 520 Waterman avenue, and damaged the furniture $1000. Russell said he had been out of work for several weeks because of injuries sustained in an automobile accident. During this idleness, he said, he drank heavily, and a few days ago gave his father a small sum of money to keep for him. Friday morning he asked for this money and his father refused to give it to him. The police report says he returned late in the afternoon and broke into his father’s house. He said the maid let him in. The destruction of property consisted of pouring ammonia over the carpets, defacing furniture with a knife, breaking dishes and bric-a-brac. The police estimated the damage at $1000 and arrested the son on. complaint of his father.

CASH FOUND AFTER DEATH Hermit Bequeathéd House Con- taining Hidden Money to Youth Who Nursed Him in Illness. the Post-Dispatcna. SSPRINGFIELD, Mo., May %.—Al- though kinsmen of James Burge de- clared today, following the decision against them here in tne contest for $32,000 found in the home of the agéd recluse, that they would carry the suit to the Supreme Court, Orris Northrip, the 12-year-old boy who gets the money under the Judge’s ruling, was happy at the outcome of the trial. He is the eldest son of a Frisco employe and he hopes to be able to assist his parents to live without drudgery. The Christian County Court held that the gift by the old man of his cottage as a reward to the boy who had be- friended him and nursed him: in his final illness th the contents of the dwelling and that the money which was taken from various hiding places by brothers and sisters of Burge, rightfully belonged to Northrip. Ever since the money was found, it has been in a trust deposit in a local bank. The friendship between this oddly as- sorted pair, Burge, a reputed miser, cold, friendless and not séeking com- panionship, and young Northrip, young, happy and kindhearted, began on May day more than four years ago. Children in the neighborhood of Burge’s home were placiig May baskets at the doors of friends. They did not leave a basket at the home of Burge, but Northrip, who lived a few doors away, moved by childish pity, ran into the yard and placed his prettiest basket on the doorstep. The next morning the old man found the basket with a card on which the boy’s name was scrawled hidden in the flowers. He was deeply touched. Deeded House to Boy. A friendship began between them which lasted until Burge’s death, and which brought to the boy the gift of the house and its contents. A deed to the property was made out by Burge and placed in custody of a trustee, but aft- er Burge’s death relatives found and re- moved the money for which the boy later brought suit. Burge had lived alone for 18 years, deserted by friends and relatives, The finding of the May basket seemed to revive memories of his boyhood, and created a longing for companionship. He called that day at the Northrip home and asked for Orris. Within a few days the old man and Orris, then 9 years old, became boon companions, and Orris bécame a daily caller at the lonely house. Burge seemed to appreciate the novel compan- ionship, and would read to Orris for hours at a time, interspersing these tales with his own youthful experiences. Burge became unable to work about two years ago, and soon after that he was confined to his bed by an acute attack of dropsy. While he was help- less Orris called even more frequently than before. Quit School to Nurse Friend. Three weeks before Burge’s death, Feb. %, 1911, Orris quit school and gave his entire time to his invalid friend, sleeping at the old man’s lonely home and arising at all hours in the night to give him medicine and in the day- time preparing food for the ailing man. This devotion and self-sacrifice was not lost on Burge, and 10 days before his death he said to Orris: “I am suffering terribly, my boy, and I feel that I am not going to live much longer. You have been my only friend for nearly three years now, son, and in appreciation I have deeded to you this house, all that is in it, and the lot upon which it stands. I want you to take possession the instant the breath leaves my body.” As death drew near Burge’s relatives became interested and attempted to re- move him to a hospital, but his pro- tests stopped them. Their repeated ef- fcrts caused Burge to appeal to his young nurse for help, and Orris sought gid which resulted in the dying man be- ing allowed to remain at home. Mrs. George Northrip, Orris’ mother, then offered her services, and daily took food to the man, and gave him such care as Orris could not give. Relatives Take Possession. Before Burge died his relatives ques- tioned him closely about his fortune, and learned that there was considerable | money in the house, and they declared that he told them the hiding places. Immediately after his death the housé was ransacked and enough gold and currency found to fill a half peck mea- sure. Orris, who had so faithfully cared for his friend, was kept out of the home be knew so well while every nook and corner that might hide valuables was being pried Into. In an opening overt a door casing several baking powder cans full of gold coins were found. About $9000 In gold was found beneath the false top of & center table; large amounts of currency were found in an

Director McKinley of the Taft bureau said today that he and his associates would welcome a fight on Senator Root, slated for temporary chairman of the cor.vention.. The Taft strength in the convention, he said, was greater than the number of delegates pledged or in- structed for the President. “According to reports in the newspa- pers,””’ Director McKinley said, ‘Mr. Roosevelt would like to recall members of the National Committee. This indi- vates the limit to which he would go. That Mr. Roosevelt. and his followers will resort to every known means to terrorize the Chicago convention is a fact which grows more apparent day by day. “The time has come “when the moral stamina of the leaders of the Republican party is to be tested as it has not been since the Civil War,"’. MciKnley con- tinued. “It is within the power of the National Committee to make or bréak the Republican party for many years’ to come. The party'is strong enough to’ withstand the shock of any attack with- in or without, but no party can survive a compromise with principle or an aban- donment of all principle. | “In the Jast analysis, Mr. Roosevelt is going to meet his own party, not the Democratic or Socialist party, face to face at Chicago.” MeéKinley says that Roosevelt's own statement is ample evidence of thé fact that he knows he-has not enough dele- gates *to fiomindte him and he is ‘“de- termined, with defeat staring him in the face, to wrest the nomination for the presidency by any means, fair or foul.” Denies a Compromise Plan. McKiniey branded as “an absolute falsehood”’ the story that the Taft man- agers are themselves planning to at- tempt to shift to a compromise candi- date. The Roosevelt committee, he said, charged him with sending a telegram that delegates “would be taken care of in the compromise.”’ The Roosevelt managers are chal- lenged to produce the telegram ‘‘or stand branded as manufacturers or purvey- ors, or both, of absolute lies, maliciously conceived and circulated.”’ “First, last and all the time President Taft is in the present fight to stay,” said McKinley, and his friends will stay with him until he is renominated and re-elect- ed President of the United States for a second term.” PRINCETON BARS T.

The Roose- velt message was brought to Chicago by Ormsby McHare, who has been en- trusted with representing the Roose- Volt: contests before the National Com- mittee: McHarg, who said he spoke by au- thority of Col. Roosevelt, declared thet Senator Root would not be permitted to preside if the Roosevelt men con- trolled the convention. The National Committee’s selection, McHarg said, would be ignored by Col. Roosevelt an4 hig followers and they would taxe charge of the convention, immediatety after the chairman of the National Committee had called it to order. Senator Clapp Is Favored. In place of Root for temporary chair- man the Roosevelt men would put for- ward Senator Clapp of Minnesota and demand a rolleall. After calling atten- A to the former friendship existing beTween Senator Root and Col. Roose- velt, McHarg said: “You can take it as definitely settled that Senator Root will not preside as temporary chairman. Col. Roosevelt is determined that he -.shall not and in that determination he will be successful. * “President Taft will be greatly sur- prised when he sees what the Southern delegates are going to do. I make this statement without any fear of contradic- tion: Roosevelt will get at least 25 per cent of the delegates selected in the South who are supposed to be instruct- ed for Taft. They have come over to us voluntarily. Aside from the dele- gates we have instructed for Roosevelt in the South there are only 190 supposed to be in the Taft column. Of this num- ber we will have 50 sure. Roosevelt will. get as many delegates out of the Southern States as does Mr. Taft.” Expects 260 Candidatés, MeHarg said there will be about 260 contested delegates for the National Committee to dispose of when it begins hearing the contests on June 6 Four years ago there were 229. Secretary Nagel sent word to Chair- man New today that as he was a mem- ber of President Taft’s Cabinet, he yrould not serve on thé National Com- mittee during action on the contesting delegations. He gave his proxy to Con- gressinan :‘Bartholdt of Missouri.

Lockwood, the juror alleged to have been bribed by agents of the McNamara defense, was expected today at the trial of Clarence S. Darrow, the Chicago law- yer, who was declared in the opening presentation of .the. case, yesterday, to be the man who directed the bribery ne- gotiations. .. Lockwood, .was expected to the stand yesterday. ms Only a brief session was scheduled to- day, on account of.the .usual Saturday half-holiday. Civil War Veteran. Lockwood's. @ppearance against Dar- row; was looked, forward to with much interest;- He was said to. have acted as an agent of the prosecution in trapping In his opening state- ment yesterday District Attorney Fred- ericks said that Lockwood was in- structed by the prosecution to continue the negotiations for his apparent brib- ery, after he had been first approached by Bert Franklin, the chief detective of the McNamara defense. Lockwood is a Civil War veteran and formerly was a deputy sheriff. John F. Ballard was the last talesman rejected for alternate juror yesterday. He said he was fully in accord with the doctrine of a book written Darrow, particularly that which held “if capital has the right to put labor out of busi- ness, labor has the right to put capital out of business,” as he expressed it. “T belong to the school of philosophy,” he said, ‘‘which teaches that the end justifies the means.”’ The defense did not resist the Statdés challenge for cause. There will be no such denouement as ended the McNamara trial in that of Darrow, according to District Attorney Fredericks. Reports to the effect that Darrow had offered to confess and plead guilty were characterized by Darrow as ‘lies. ’* “Tl never had anything to confess in this case,” said Darrow today, “and never had any conversation with any- one regarding a confession, nor any in- timation or thought of that kind.” Fredericks refused to state definitely whether the prosecution conducted any negotiations with the defense looking to a plea of guilty. He said, however, that he expected the trial of Darrow to con- tinue until the jury agreed on a verdict. FOR RHODES SCHOLARSHIP

PASTOR Ta ODEON TO MILES TO SPEAK LA Head of Rock Church Objects to Lecture Under Auspices of Guardians of Liberty. IS CALLED NONSECTARIAN General, Also Shut Out of Bap- tist Hall, Will Speak on “America’s Danger.” Following *the refusal of the Odeon management to permit Gen. Nelson A. Miles, retired, to speak there on “Amer- ica’s Danger,” under the auspices of the Guardians of Liberty, arrangements are being made to have the lecture deliv- ered a few weeks later, probably in June. The use of the Odeon was refused, Friday afternoon, at the last minute, be- cause of opposition from Catholics in the vicinity. The Rev. Father N. L. Franzen, pastor of St. Alphonsus (Rock) Church, called on F. E. Norwood, man- ager of the Odeon,’ and informed him that if the lecture were permitted, he * | would: have “the Odeon’s: fire escapes, which project over the church property to the north, torn down at. once; Prior to engaging the Odeon the Guardians had been refused the use of the Second Baptist Church by the Rev. Ww. Cc. Bitting, the pastor. Lecture Will Be Given, Gen. Miles was accompanied to St. Louis by Charles D. Haines of New York, a former Congressman, who is Chief Guardian of the society, and by the Rev. Dr. Augustus E. Barnett, rec- tor of the Episcopal Church of Our Re- deemér, Philadelphia.- ,In a formal statetient, issued after the Odeon engagement had been ¢an- celed, Haines said the lecture would be given in St. Louis in about three weeks. Gen. Miles confirmed this by saying he intended to return soon and speak in St. Louis. Both Haines and Gen. Miles said they were unable to understand the oppo- sition aroused by announcement of <he lecture, They declared the lecture was not to reflect in any way on any re- Father Franzen said he - had Catholic... - Supporting his statement, Haines ex- hibited copies of the Guardians’ decla- ration of principles, which reads as fol- lows: 1.

Every bridge between Rellano - and Corralitos is destroyed and the rebels, continuing their flight to Jimenez, de- stroyed most of the railroad behind them. One and one-half million rounds of ammunition were used by the Fed- eral infantry and 400 shells were fired by the artillery during 18 hours of fighting, Gen, Huerta said today. The artillery inflicted terrible pun- ishment on the insurgent columns. Some of the shells severed the. flee- ing troop trains, killing scores of rebels at a time, More than 800 dead and wounded rebels were found on the battlefield behind Rellano as the Federal ad- vance guard under Generals Rabago and Telles pressed northward in pur- suit of the retreating insurrectos. In all, Gen. Orozco is estimated -to have lost nearly 3000 of his force of 8000 rebels. Two thousand are re- ported to have fled in disorder, and the dead and wounded ultimately will amount, it is believed, to 1000. The charitable ladies of St. Louis must have a home for the 8t.

Ta PROPOSED UNION AVENUE VIADUCT Declares Plan Too Elaborate and Says It Is Unreasonable to Ask Railroad to Build. FORMAL OBJECTION FILED Engineer Points Out That Struc- ture as Projected Will Be Much Wider Than Free Bridge. The Terminal Ratllroad has filed a formal objection before the Public Im- provements Committee of the City Coun- cil to the proposed viaduct for the elimi- nation of the grade crossing at Union avenue. Herman J. Pfeifer, chief en- . gineer of the Terminal, told the mem- bers of the committee that the viaduct planned at a cost of $160,000 is too elab- orate and that it is unreasonable to ask the railroad to construct it. The members of the committee, ac- vompanied by Maxime Reber, president of the Board of Public Improvements, ané officials of the Terminal, will in- ‘gpect the Union avenue crossing Mon- day afternoon and will look over the gurrounding property. The Terminal has asked the committee to refer the grade crossing ordinance back to the Board of Public Improvements and that the Terminal engineers be given an oppor- tunity to confer with the board on plans for the viaduct. Pfeifer cited the dimensions of the free bridge to show that the proposed via- duct wil] be out of proportion to the amount of traffic it will be called on to accommodate. He declared that the traffic on the wagon roadway of the free bridge will be immense, and that the Union avenue viaduct will be in- significant in comparison, He produced figures showing that the free bridge roadway is 38 feet in width, and that the proposed roadway on the Union avenue bridge will be 60 feet wide. The sidewalks on the free bridge are 8 feet yide, and the proposed ordi- ance for the Union avenue viaduct calls for sidewalks 20 feet wide, Pfeifer point- ed Out. The total width of the free bridge roadway is 54 feet, and that of the Union avenue viaduct will be 100 feet, according to the pending ordinance. , Pfeifer declared that the proposed or- dinance instructs the Terminal ‘to build @ viaduct at Union avenue wider than the Brooklyn Bridge or Eads Bridge or any bridge or viaduct in St. Louis. .The Terminal does not oppose the elimination of. its -grade crossings — in St. Louis, Pfeifer stated, but it objects to building elaborate and costly struc- tures, with much greater dimensions than necessary to handle’ the traffic. He said that a viaduct~60 feet» wide at Union avenue Would-be ample to care for the travel there, and that it could be built for about $55,000. He declared that the property adjoining the cross- ing is now sold by the acre and ts not thickly populated, making a rim via- _ duct -unnecessary. Councilman Protzmann, who: is a _feal estate agent of North St. Louts te ~ yt PS | ~and handles property in thé vicinity of the proposed viaduct, disputed Pfeifer in this statement and declared that the section is growing rapidly and that a large structure will be necessary soon to accommodate the residents there.

Mamma Votes While Papa Holds the Baby in California Now

Ce 5: WHERE MOTHER HAS HER CHANCE HIS photograph, made at a Los Angeles polling booth during the presidential pref- erence primaries in California last week, shows how one papa and one mamma solved the question of what to do with the baby while they went to the polls to exercise the right of franchise which belongs equally to both under the new State law. Papa chivalrously held the little ore while mamma cast the first ballot, and then she took the young hopeful in her arms while daddy voted. This scene, according to dispatches, was repeated frequently all over the State.
WOMAN TELLS HOW SHE SAVED MAN FROM POLICEMEN Mrs. Nellie Stanley Testifies Be- fore Commissioners Two Pa- trolmen Were Beating Student. Mrs. Nellie Stanley of 3000 Locust street, told the Board of Police Commis- sioners Friday evening how She rescued Don Numbers, a medical student, from the hands of two slugging policemen. She exhibited a bruise on her left arm, the result, she said, of a personal en- counter with one of the policemen and she laughed as she related how the oth- er policeman ran down the.street when she ordered him to “beat it.” Patrolmen John Bohachek and Ben H. Boody of the Soulard Street District were being tried on a charge of afttack- ing a citizen. Mrs. Stanley identified both, but Numbers was not positive about Bohachek. Policeman’s Blow Answers Criticism. Numbers, who lives at 2948 Locust street, testified that he, in company with Charlies Sendlein of 616A North Garrison avenue, and Ben Constantino of 2948 Locust street, was walking along Garrison avenue near Locust i street, when two policemen passed them. One of the policemen stumbled and Sendlein made a disparaging remark. Numbers repeated it and the larger of the patrolmen struck him in the face. pays he was pursued by the policemen. According to the testimony, they were , | beating him in front of Mrs. Stanley’s home when she ran into the front yard and reaching across the iron fence shoved the large policeman away. Mrs. Stanley testified that the large policeman seized her arm so roughly that he crushed her gold bracelet. He threatened to strike her, she said, but she shook her finger in his face and dared him to lay a hand on her. Cowed Policeman Without Help. She called the policemen cowards and ordered them away from the front of her house. The smaller of the two went away, she testified, but the larger one stood his ground. Her husband j went to.her aid, she said, but she or. dered him to return to the house, say- ing she could take care of herself. Mrs. Stanley testified that she tried to take the policeman’s star away, but he saved her the trouble by removing it himself and handing it to her. She added that she wished she had kept it. Neng 200 persons gathered at the cor- , Mrs. Stanley said, but the police- ieee on the beat did not appear. Fina!- ly the large policeman left, She’ iden- tified Boody and Bohachek as the two. The case was continued until next Fri- day, as the policemen wish to summcen witnesses. They deny the charge. Patrolman Edward Baggott was fined $0 and 100 demerit marks for intox!i-

A public hearing on the repeal of the free bridge franchise of the Southern Traction Co., of which Jeptha D. Howe is one of the chief promoters, will be held Tuesday at3 p.m. by the Railroads Committee of the House of Delegates. Chairman LBilers of the committee has announced that only one public hearing will be granted and that a re- port will probably be made to the House Tuesday night. The Alton & Mississippi approach to the free bridge was killed by a vote of 18 to 11 Friday night in the House of Delegates, and was then brought back to life by referring it back to the Rail- roads Committee on a majority vote. Several unsuccessful efforts were made by House members to force a vote on ithe. uortheast approach. The reason for the unlooked for ac- tivity on these approaches was a desire by the members of the House of Dele- gates to “put the City Council in the hole.”” Members of the Council an- nounced several days ago that the Reber approach would be passed by the Council and sent to the House for approval. This, it was thought, would place the responsibility for further ce- lay on the House members. Wrangle Spoils Program. A wrangle in the Council committee Friday afternoon caused a delay in this program and the members of the House attempted to play the same game and put either the Alton & Mississippi or the northeast approach up to the Coun- cil and shift the blame for future delay on the Council. The inability of House members to agree upon either approach blocked this plan. A game of hide-and-seek Friday be- tween the Council and House members of the Joint Free Bridge Committee caused another delay in the final re- port on. an East Side approach. While the House members waited in the House chamber the Council members waited in the Council rooms and engaged in a long-distance wrangle over whether a meeting of the joint committee formally had been called. Hilers on his return from Pittsburg Friday sent copies of the proposed agreement with the Denverside Connect- ing Railroad ta.the members of the committee and’ notified them that a meeeting would beheld Friday after- noon in the city hall.. No time or exact place of meeting was specified. Eilers went to the ‘city hall Friday at 2 p. m., and announced that he was willing to.confer with any of the stayed in the House chamber, other delegates joined him. The Council members assembled their rooms and awaited action. They announced that if a meeting was to be held in the city hall, it might as weil be held in the Council committee rooin. Atinp. m. Delegate Ebrecht grew tired of waiting in the House for the Council members and went to the Council cham- ber. He rounded up three Council mem- bers and escorted them to the House of Delegates.

HERE'S THE WAY WEBER & FIELDS HELP THE FRIARS Cancel Their Own Eastern Book: ing.to Insure Big Audience for Annual ‘‘Frolic.”
Although Weber and Fields are draw- ing crowded houses in every city on their jubilee tour, a significant little in- cident now just recorded in a New York néwspaper proves that friendship counts for more than money in the general scheme of their lives. In addition to starring in their own production of “‘Hokey Pokey,” in which they will be seen at the Shubert Thea- ter in St. Louls on Thursday evening, June 6, they also will be the stars of the “Friars’ Frolic,”’ the annual tour of which takes place later. It.so chances that both ‘“‘Hokey Pokey” and the ‘Friars’. Frolic’’ were booked for one performance each at Atlantic City, the Weber-Fields jubilee booking antedating the other. This fact naturally constituted a seri- ous menace to the full success of the Friars’ performance, but Weber and Fields, in their loyalty to the fraternal Friars’ organization, and without any solicitation whatever, promptly removed the menace by canceling their own jubi- lit is the best medicine on earth for
the field free of competition on the part of themselves and their all-star organ- ization. “Good luck to the Friars!” they wired, announcing their unselfish action. And so the matter stands— greatly to the benefit of the Friars and the credit of Joe Weber and Lew Fields. The Jubilee Company originally seen in the New York run of “Hokey Pokey” will appear in St. Louis. Its list of prin- Cipals includes Weber and Fields them- selves, Lillian Russell, Fay. Templeton, William Collier, George Beban, Bessie Clayton, Ada Lewis, Helena Collier Gar- rick, John T. Kelly and Frankie Bailey, together with some 6 beautiful show- girls.

“NERVES” — Much of the nervousness, worri- ment and bad temper that we see ev- ery day among our friends is due to weakened kidneys. Good kidneys drive a large amount of uric products out of the body every day. .Uric acid is very irritating, and when in excess, it attacks the weakest parts first. Nerve troubles are more common than in years gone by. The nervous sys- brain and nerves. tem offers less resistance to attacks ; { of uric acid. % Nothing can cause more unhappi- ness than fits of temper, ‘‘ blues,’’ the inclination to worry over trifles, to suspect one’s friends and to see the worst side of everything. Nervous- ness is so easily misunderstood that many a kidney sufferer drifts to the very verge of nervous collapse without realizing the cause of it. Here is the clue: If your nerve troubles are due to kidney weakness, you are likely at the same time to have backache, dizzy spells, headache, or rheumatic or neuralgic pain.

snaeetieestnnediineenn eee GOOD reprint is now and then A A pleasure to a lot of men. For instance, in the week just past, I read “Two Years Before the Mast.” The youth who wrote it went to sea And turned the Horn in ‘thirty-three. He touched at Frisco, Monterey, And lay in San Diego Bay, About the time we broke the trail To Santa Fe, and lo! a sail Went down across the burning sand, And many an Injun, with his hand To shade his eyes, crouched in the grass And watched the prairie schooner pass. Then the great romance of the West Slept in the wilderness. The quest For Marshall’s gold had not begun. There in the land of the setting sun The Mexican held quiet sway, Undreaming of another day, Of all the world gone mad for gold, And Mexico’s too feeble hold Snapped as a kite-string in the wind By the avalanche of humankind. The author of this book was more Than traveler to a distant shore. Hé was a poet. Here the sea Rolls in a wondrous imagery. A ship ig a living thing. To climb High in the shrouds is more sublime Than standing upon a mountain peak And breathing the clouds, To hear the creak Of the rigging when the breeze is air, And to battle the tempest high in ain— That, my friends, is the sort of thing That a poet, being such, will sing In prose or whatever it is he does, And a poet is what this sailor was.

W brero on his head, chaps on his legs, spurs jingling at his heels, r.des up the mountain pass in the very first chapter and comes, sprang upon Beauty-in-Distress trying to escape from the hands of villanious Pete Leddy, the reader knows right away that he is soon to smell gunpowder and witness some al fresco love-making. And there is gunpowder and love-making enough in Frederick Palmer’s “Over the Pass,”’ aithough there is scarcely too much of either. The book is a breezy, galloping story of the West, one of the kind prede- stined to hammock and summer vaca- tion purposes. While Senor Don’t Care is rescuing Beauty-in-Distress, exchang- ing persiflage with her father, the Doge of Little Rivers, and fighting a duel with Leddy, one simply knows there is something more to him than his Arizona fmake-up would indicate. Consequently there is little occasion for surpise when it turns out that he is the vagabond heir to $20,000,000. Fortunately this point is not the end- ing of the story but only its real start- ing point. Senor Don’t Care goes back to his father’s New York emporium, but he stays only two months. And then, at the call of his old friends at Little River, it’s: boots-and-saddles for him and away across the plains again to danger and devotion. . How he fights and wins a great bat- tle, gives up his inheritance, convinces Beauty-in-Distress that he is not a poser; how he proves faithful to his prairie training, to Firio, the Mexican, to P. D. (without the Q.) and Wrath- to-God, his ponies, and to Jag Ear, the pack burro, and how everything comes out happily is all told in some sprightly chapters that finish a most enjoyable little tale.—(Scribner’s.) “Two Years an addendum, “OVER THE PASS.” HEN Senor Don’t Care, a com- “THE BACHELOR DINNER.” LIVE M. BRIGGS has written some excellent short stories for this interesting volume, which takes its title from the first of them. A zest, as well as a connection, is given to them by representing them as being told at a dinner party given by Dan Travis in Paris. As a rule, they &@re pithy, pointed and striking ex- amples of the high art of short story writing. But & must be admitted that the performances are not all uniform- ly good. & is hard work to get a big human interest yarn in a few hundred words and most writers fail at _ it through reserting to ‘‘suggestion,’’ which, in simple language, means that & whole lot is left for the reader to guess. Miss Briggs occasionally slips upon this literary banana peel but, as & whole, it is a mighty good collection of yarns. The characters are mainly Americans but there is a distinct and palatable Latin Quartier flavor about some of the stories. It is the Paris of today and not of tradition that is re- vealed to us. (Scribner.) EDUCATING EVERYBODY. N “All the Children of All the Peo- ple,’ called “a study in the attempt to ¢@ducate everybody,” William Hawley Smith arraigns, with highly im- pressive logic, our system of mental training that follows a “psychology that is based on the uniformity of the hu- man mind and the possibility of environ- ment fashioning every individuality to a common model.” This system takes no cognizance of the fact that “all men are born and not made.” It is Mr. Smith's conten- tion that just as the poet is a poet be- Cause he is born—a fact that every- body concedes readily—just so different then are born with different faculties, with great capacity for some things and amazing incapacity for others. Yet the children, 80 variously gifted, are poured into our great educational machines in the attempt to mould their intellectual inclinations, capacities and powers in accordance wth a common model.

(Macmi!ian.) THE DEPARTMENT |. STORE, ARGARET BOHME’S “The De- MI partment Store,’’ has been trans- lated from the German by Ethel Colburn Mayne. The scene fe laid tn Berlin, the time is the present and the story centers around: characters em- ployed are interested in a mammoth de- partment store owned by Joshua Mull- enmeister. Joshua Mullenmeister was the adored son of Israel Manassa, a@ small draper, who conducted a small shop on the ground floor of a house where be had lived for many years, but Joshua mar- ried a piano maker’s daughter and took her name. As a boy Joshua was backward both ih body and mind, and was the despair of his teachers and his fathef, but he lived to fulfill the prophecy of old Peter Rib- bick, who said, when Israel] tearfully confided his trouble about Joshua to his friend, “Take care that he does not yet beat the whole crew of schoolmasters.”’ At 16 he went abtoad, studied and worked in the largest establishments of London and Paris, and came back to Berlin a far seeing, cautious, clever buisness man, with ideas in advance of his time. At the opening of the story Joshua has lost his wife, has’ two grown sons and a daughter, has married a second time, and Mullenmeister’s is a power in Berlin with Joshua as the beloved chief. The best ¢haractér drawing in the book is Agnes Matrie, a lovely clerk in the toy department, who attracts the éye of Freidrich, Joshua’s eldest son. After several weeks of clandestine meet- ings, the two become engaged, with the reluctant consent of thé father, who re- alizes his son is merely infatuated by the girl's beauty. Agnes is weak, vain, selfish, whose one longitig is for luxury that wealth can give. Freidrich goes to Ameéfica for two yéars to study départment store meth- ods in New York and Chicago, and be- fore he returns Agnes admits to herself that Freidrich means nothing to her ex- cept as a means to her dazzling end. The two years he has been away from Agnes has opened Freidrich's eyes and shortly after his return there is a defi- nite rupture. There are coincidental romances and a powerful depiction of the anaconda characteristic of the department store which not only swallows the small shop and makes clerks of their proprietors, but absorbs weaker department stores.

(Duffield.) “BUCK PETERS, RANCHMAN.” HBRE is no apparent effort at tell- B ing a story in Clarence E. Mul- ford’s handling of “Buck Peters, Ranchmanh.” It is a narrative of the early days in Montana, when cattle thieves and sheepmen pestered the large ranch owners and detective ability, ioy- alty and bravery counted for more than round up agility and cattle lore. Three men figure as heroes and two as vil- lains and hdéth of the latter die from bullets. The sternness of the story is relieved by bits of bunkhouse comedy and some reminiscences that please. There is also woven into it, not obtru- sively, a romance of an Englishman who made g00d and wins the hand of the capitalist who owned the acres.

“ ] BP A PUBLIC OPEN-AIR SCHOOL. "The most joyous feature in connection with the ‘graduating exercises of the open-air school on the “Natural Bridge road will be the release of 25 pupils who have been relieved of the threat of ‘tdberculosis. These 25 children will graduate “from weakness to strength, from disease to health. “They will again re-enter the public schools to ‘pursue their studies. ‘The rescue of 25 children from the peril of the white plague is a striking demonstration of the value of this school. But why should children tuberculosis or threatened with it be com- pelled to go outside of the public schools for an education under wholesome conditions? The open-air school is supported by the Society for the Prevention of Tuberculosis. This society has accomplished much in the fight against consump- tion, but it should not have the burden of support- ing a school. It has plenty of uses for its limited resources in other practical lines of preventive ~The Board of Education should provide school accommodations for. these unfortunate children. They should not be debarred from: the ‘benefits of the public school system. They should have in- struction under conditions which will not menace the health of other children and will promote their freedom from disease. There. should be public Open-air schools. Making provision for these ‘children is a legitimate and necessary use of pub- He school funds. hi =. i i A it the abolition of smoking in street cars can be submitted to a referendum of patrons, why not Re abolition of straphanging? = = _— =. -

Those sensible parents, Police Sergeant and Mrs. Mathews, and their 12 children form a St. household of distinction. The fact that this » children have had every juvenile malady my other children ever had and that 12 sturdy, ved, bright-eyed children rurvive out of
ee lowe old, attests the value of a system in bring- ing up families that is based on common sense ind practical experience. It compares well with stems based on scientific speculation. laps men and women who have had a y sringing up as the only child in a family better than others the great privi- eof being reared children of a big family. sm fewer children should be denied parents. There is no better school than » family for Bors age the’ respect for \ || Breceding mitinicipal elections. AN APPEAL TO IMBECILITY. Mr. :ait announces that he is determined to wreck the sepublican party in order to prevent the nomination of Col. Roosevelt. He rnd his ad- visers admit that the President cannct be re- elected if nominated. But they decinre that tue salvation of the country depends upon the defeat of Col. Roosevelt in the Chicago convention, be- cause if he is nominated, he will win. Nothing exceeds the marvel of this plan of sav- ing the country from itself except the public an- nouncement of it. If the country really wants Mr. Roosevelt as President, will it consent to be saved from its own impulse by men whose leadership it repudi- ates? Will it accept Mr. Taft, who admits he can- not be elected, and his advisers, who have helped to ruin his political career, as its saviors? Will the Republican party consent to be wrecked by its repudiated leaders? itself to be sacrificed on the altar of defeat to save the country from another Republican admin- istration? Will it consent to be saved from the fate of nominating a candidate that can win by a candidate who admits he cannot win? We can imagine the joyous abandon with which Republicans will flock to the standard of a con- fessed party wrecker. We can see the office-hold- ing delegates at Chicago enthusiastically desert- ing the standard of a candidate who can win for the black flag of a candidate who cannot win. What following can Mr. Taft command in this program of Republican disaster? If he failed to hold his party’s loyalty in a plan of construction, can he win it for a plan of destruction? He has never had an original personal following. He has always been somebody’s appointee or somebody’s man. He began as Roosevelt’s protege. He has been Aldrich’s man, Ballinger’s man, Hammond’s man, Root’s man. Mr. Taft has finally stripped himself to the lash of the Rough Rider. He, not Roosevelt, is the party wrecker. He, not Roosevelt, is the candi- date of defeat. He, not Roosevelt, is the self- constituted savior of the country. Col. Roosevelt is singularly fortunate in his op- position. His enemies have served him well. But all the folly that Mr. Taft has committed since his descent into the political prize-ring does not compare with the spectacular madness of this in- vitation to party defeat and ruin. If Col. Roosevelt is to be defeated, the appeal to reason must be substituted for the appeal to im- becility.
President Taft’s tax statement shows him $29,510 richer in money than last year, but what would an inventory show as to other assets? = = * — a a DETAILS ARE THE PUBLIO’S BUSINESS. Mr. O. T. Crosby, who is a purveyor of corporate good feeling and promoter of public good will toward American traction interests, remarked in St. Louis: “The public will make a fool of itself in at- tempting to criticize the minute details of a cor- poration’s business. It is best to impose confi- dence in your public officers whose business it is to supervise these companies. In justice to Mr. Crospy and thé public utility interests for which he speaks, they must be cred- ited with gracefully accepting regulation and co-
Commission to that’ end. Antagonism cf the pub- lic is furthest from their association’s motive. Yet we beg to differ with the speaker respecting the public’s making a fool’ of itself over the details of corporate management. The details are precisely what the public per- sonally comes in contact with. It was only the other day, for instance, that the people of Kan- sas City were offered a vote by the traction com- pany as to whether smoking should be allowed on cars. The method of payment, the stops, the size of platforms, the seating capacity, indeed, the number of straps, and all the details of operation are vital personal matters to the individual who pays for the service. The only wonder is that the passenger in this country does not make more of his personal rights as such. Ile is the most lenient passenger in the world, and the corporations which serve him are the least molested.
Why not let Theodore Roosevelt go alone to Cuba and settle it?
- THE CHARTERED DIVE. A midnight shooting affray in front of a so- called club is one more testimonial to the char- acter of an institution which cannot be tolerated in St. Louis. . We refer in general to dives which are clubs in name and. charter only. There is one simple answer to the problem of what is and what is not a club which may be tol- erated. We assert that the character of the place or the character and conduct of the people who frequent it must control. Poor men have the same right to clubs as wealthy men, and there cannot be any interfer- ence With those that are properly conducted. But the mere possession of a name, a charter and a ‘membership list cannot protect a dive or a disor- derly resort, which can be and should be disposed of as a nuisance by summary police methods. The suppression of resorts that offend decency and public morals, or nuisances which disturb the peace usually calls for little more than a black maria. The police of St. Louis should know a dive when they see one. i i ip, ~~ CUBAN INTERVENTION WARNINGS. Very characteristic of the Mr. Taft we have since got better acquainted with was his weak compromise when he went in 1906 to Havana as Commissioner. Up to that time we had known him as the Great Pacificator, as Washington's Traveling Glad-Hander. The title given Mr. Palma to a second term in the 1906 general election was of the clearest. His victory was almost unanimous because of the de- fault of the Liberals, who puerilely boycotted the election onthe ground of alleged irregularities in Gomez, since

Palma-resigned in protest and died broken- hearted. His creditable administration had fought practices that have flourished under his successor. Graft was put down. The lottery was frowned on. His one blunder was in holding it too monstrous to suppose that Cuba Libre could ever fall again into the anachronism of insurrection, after 30 years of disorder under oppression, and in con- senting to unwise military reduction. Malcontents were taught by Mr. Taft in 1906 a way of winning election success by appeal to arms. It is a wonder that a renewal of disorders has been delayed ‘as long as it has. Every reason- able and honorable means should be used to avoid a second intervention, but if it becomes necessary under treaty obligations, it should be so conducted as to teach the insurrectos a lesson they will not soon forget. We should’ promote law and order, not lawlessness and disorder. == ~~ -— WHAT? What has Theodore Roosevelt done to fill the empty market basket? What does he pro- pose to do? ———

It will be thankful that respect for lav will not be further shaken by a renewal of the unseemly struggle between money and justice. ‘‘Mix brains with the steel” is John Stevenson’s advice on how to succeed as an ironmaster. With- out the steel it is the success formula in any line. = = "= = The Republican primaries in New Jersey, the home of the trusts, should make the latter’s pref- erence as plain as day. oes LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Nocturnal Noises. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I think it an outrage that saloon music be per- mitted between 9 p. m. and 7 a. m. There should be a law forbidding any undue noise by “music” or otker means in any resorts within a radius of, say, 1000 feet of a residence occupied by anyone except the proprietor of the resort making such ncise, between the above hours. It ‘s a recognized fact that the great majority sleep at night; and

It would be a good thing if the exampte of Denver were followed, and all unnecessary noises, such as automobile sirens, factory whistles, screaming venders, and church bells, be sup- pressed. Why the factory whistle? Simply be- cause once upon a time clocks were unknown, and by some noise the workman was notified that he should be on hand. But with the $1 watch, the whistles should go. And the same thing of church bells. How would you like to get here on a late train at 2 a. m. and take a room in the} Jefferson, to be awakened by thundering bells of Christ Church at 5 a. m.? Would wish you were in Denver, or they in East St. Louls—what? The auto siren needs no comment. Of all the diabolical devices, this is the worst. Yours for a quieter St. Louis, a la Denver, CHARLES G. 0. DE FRO of. The People Will Decide. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Taft and Roosevelt have had their political and personal contest and the people have had the les- son and benefit of the agitation if nothing more. We have kept close tab on them all the way through and see the whole affair reduced to just about this: * Taft to Roosevelt: I have a right to another term and you have no business to get in my way. Roosevelt to Taft: If the people want me they have a right to me. Taft to the people: If the American people elect Roosevelt instead of me I will have my opinion of them. Roosevelt to the people: My opinion of the American people is that they are competent to vote for whom they want and for what they want and they have a right to their ballot unhampered, ' J. A. TATE. Ash Pit Fires. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have read the complaints of people living in the vicinity of Wellston whistles which start blowing at 7 o’clock. I am up at 6 o’clock every morning for no other reason but to get the fresh mcrning air. These whistles bother one so little that if you are not just thinking of them you would hardly notice them. If these kickers would look out of their back doors at the ash pits strung along the alleys they would see a real nuisance, People throw any rubbish they happen to have —old shoes, rubbers, paper, rags, and dry weeds, things that give off a terrible odor and smoke when burning it, into their ash pits and burn it. The smoke and odor from this burning rubbisn penetrates‘our homes from kitchen to living rooms and parlors. If you are unfortunate enough to live opposite one of these careless, senseless ash pit burners and notice your bed, table, and fur- niture coverings after an ash pit fire, you will nctice a coat of black soot that flies as the breeze blows it, and you are bound to breathe it into your lungs; you cannot escape it. If they would burn their rubbish in their fur- naces, it would clean out the pipes and the smoke would be flying above the house tops, no ono would suffer, and they would help to have a clean St. Louis.

AN ARISTOCRATIC EDUCATION. | Owen Johnson in Collier’s. _ : Here, then, is the most completely misconceived system for the education cf our aristocracy that could be con- ceived. From the moment a man of so- clal rating enters Harvard everything is ready to protect him from any demo-f cratic knowledge of his fellows. He rooms in dormitories of such luxury that only men of his own means can surround him. He soon enters an ex- clusive intermediary club and then a more exclusive final one. No obliga- tion is laid on him in the sléghtest to win recognition in his own class. He may be detested, as sometimes hap- pens; he continues sublimely indifferent with no other conception of a college career than the social success which is handed down to him by those mem- bers of his Boston or New York or pri- vate school sets who look after their own. He has experienced nothing real, been brought under no _ discipline, learned nothing but to wind tigheter about him the cocoon of social predes- tination. The fact that national prob- lems—economic and political—exist, pro- foundly bores him. He has learned only one thing: whom he should associate with—and into the hands of his like will pass the control of concentrated power over masses whom he does not understand and for whom he has learned no sympathy. His social course has completed the miseducation his parents have chosen to give him. The university continues to preach theoretical democ- racy while practically it surrenders its control to social sets that mock the very sound of the word.
Willlie’s Astigmatism. From the Augusta Chronicle. Willie came home in the middle of the forenoon bearing this note to his stern parent: ‘Dear Sir—It becomes my painful duty to inform you that your son, William, shows decided Indications of astigmatism, and his case should be attended to without delay.”’ The sfern parent wrote beneath this message the following and sent Willie with it to the teacher: “Whip it out of the lIittle cuss.”’
May Be Needed. From the New York Post. It may be that the 590,000 bags of cof- fee stored up in New York are held as a reserve in case the third cup of coffee comes into general usage.
Cash Follows the Hat. From the Philadelphia Inquirer. Mr. Roosevelt threw his hat into the ring and Mr. Perkins immediately fol- lowed it with his purse.

Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams. ————— SATURDAY IN THE CITY. ATURDAY in the city is a sorry day for toil— A man once made a dollar, but they made him put it back. The city goes to the country for a good smell of the soil, And the cars go by like a string of beads on any outbound track. There are young men full of vigor, there are old men bent with care, And some there are with glowing eyes that smell the fields of June— All en route to the purlieus, and the fresh, sweet country air, In the exodus from the city, on Saturday afternoon. + ATURDAY in the city is the chosen day for play— A man once kept on working, and a copper ran him in. The city man is a boy again for just this fleeting day, And many a zephyr ‘courses through the whiskers on his chin, There are old bald-headed athletes, there are youths upon the run, And some there are with garden beds that cry, “Not yet, but soon!” Each ‘one bent on the joy of life out in the warmth of the summer sun, And blowing the job like a two-year-old, on Saturday afternoon. + ATURDAY in the city is a barren day for wits— A man once thought of something, and the wagon took him quick, The city is interested then in tennis scores, base hits, The beauty of the waters, and the flowers it can pick. There are poor folks very happy, there are rich folks in their cars, And some there are just looking on, to them no less a boon, Till the setting sun relinquishes the dark sky to the stars, And the city has been a child again, on Saturday afternoon, + + THE PERSONAL PANTHEON. Probably if Mr. Taft could display some of that ingenuous candor of which Col. Roosevelt is capable, he would do better in the primaries. Speak- ing of the Spanish-American War in one of his New Jersey speeches yes- terday, the Colonel said: “It was not much of a war; but it was all the war there was, and it is not my fault if there was not enough to go around.” This is a frank admission that he grabbed that war, and it implies that he adapted it to his political ends. It is Napoleon speaking, but it sounds ‘ike Bill Nye. Col. Roosevelt is not merely Augus- tus Caesar reincarnate, as someone has said. He is a fine blend of all the his- toric personalities which happen to serve. A Real Bolt From the Blue. As WNewt Garrison, living southeast of town, sat milking a cow Monday morning, a bolt about six inches long dropped with great force between him and the cow, bury- ing itself in the ground. Mr. Garrison was Greatly startled and got up and looked around, but could see no evidence of storm or cloud anywhere. and no one anywhere to be seen. Mr. Garrison cannot account for the strange occurrence unless it had been carried up tn the storm Saturday night and kept whirling about until it was dropped Morday morning. Mr. Garrison was exhibit- ing the bolt there Monday afternoon.—Butler (Ok.) Heraid. O’Rozco, who is in very much the Same position that Mr. Taft is in, will also continue. s

I made an effort to rise, but fell back, too weak to move again. The surgeon came in shortly after that and took my temperature. It was with a sickening sense of humiliation that I heard him say that it was a bad case of fever. Before I could be moved Bud came In. “If I should die, Bud, will you tell Miss Ellen that I have always loved her and that my last thoughts were of her?’ I said in a half whisper. He pressed my hand for an answer and placed his other on my fevered temple. I heard him ask the doctor to let him have charge of the patient. “His life is dearer than my own,” he said. I saw the surgeon nod his head and heard him add that it would take great nursing to pull me through. It was the last thing I remember for many a day. I heard afterward how he nursed me; how he slept by my cot at night and sat by it all day. Afterward he told me that I talked only of the Fines in my delirium, and for the first time he had learned that it was I who

BLISS AND ELLIS MAY GO FOR VIN CAMPBELL HAT a trade is pending between the Cardinals and the Boston National Leagu« club. whereby Catcher Jack Bliss and Outfielder George Ellis will be shipped along in exchange: for Vin Campbell. the fleet- . footed fly-chaser of the Braves, is a rumor going the rounds at Robison Field. ’Tis said the swap. will be made while the Cards are in the ‘East. Manager Bresnahan Saturday re- fused to affirm or deny the report. Roger’s only answer was: “I'm ready to make deals.’’ Campbell’s spéed is heetied on the: Cardinal club. He’s a former Smith Academy boy and his home is in St. Léufs, but whether the deal will be put through is a matter for time to decide. However, it is significant that Bresnahan now has five catchers— himself, Bliss, Wingo, Murphy and Burns—and it may be that he will let Bliss, a good man, go. He could fot spare Ellis unless he gets a man of OCamphell’s stripe in return. Bot in as much as Bresnahan wants. speed, the consummation of the deal seems probable.
| By W. J. O'CONNOR | Three Cardinal Evane and Huggins are hitting better ithan .300. Four others, Hauser, Mow- rey, Wingo and Oakes, are hitting better than .270. The pitching of Har- mon and Sallee in their recent out has been sensational, but nevertheless the club is losing too regularly. There must be a reason and there is. It's Bresna- han’s absence. The Cardinal defense without Bresna- han is loose. When Huggins also is away it is still worse. Consequently games such as Harmon’s two-hit bout against the Phillies, are being chucked ir.to the discard. Geyer pitched none too well Friday, but he would have copped had the defense been tight. The Same goes for several other defeats which have been chalked up of late. Until Bresnahan gets back in harness this defense will not tighten up. Roger has the happy faculty of keeping the Cards on their toes. He fights them sand: fights theiti hard, .They,Aght ‘back, | nether: ‘aegvessive. ee her” ‘win | _{ gemies Se 3 : Roger’s Aavice Alware Néeaeas’ The club's failure this spring- surely did emphasize Bréesnahan'’s worth to: the club, While Roger was away the players tried hard. There isn’t a quitter: in camp, but when Roger isn’t on the job they don’t try things the right way...

He thinks for a few of them, and his ability to think from the bench has been ques- tioned. He cannot telegraph his instructions from the bench as well as he can from the cateher’s box. Hence the club’s failure. Furthermore, it is high time for Bresna- han to play. if the teams is to get any re- turn at the box office. To date the club har paid off on only one big crowd. That was the whopper which saw the first Sun- Gay game of the season here, the game which Satlee won from Mordecai Brown in 12 innings. Approximately 26,000 saw that battle. Since then the attendance has _. been wretched. Rain has ruined two Saturday dates. while last Sunday. with Philadelphia as an attraction, scarcély 9000 paid to see thé pastime. And that 9000 was the biggest turnout since the Sallee-Brown duel the first Sunday of the season. Costs Roger Money to Lose. The Cardinals didn’t attract anybody on their first swing around the Western end of the circuit. The wéather was bad in Cin- cinnati and Chicago and thé crowds were poor, Pittsburg had one big Saturday crowd anc two minor-leaguish turnouts, Indeed, the team’s. slump has proved ceetly. It has proved costly to the club éwner and to the mahager, Mr. Bresnahan, whe this season is working on a@ percentage besis. It’s money out of Bresnahan's pocket évery day the club loses, and inasmuch as Reger is human and likes the merry jingle of silver dollars, it is evident that the Duke is unfit for play or otherwise he would be back in harness. Bresnahan intends to take active charge when the club goes on its lone Eastern trip Sunday night. CARDS HAVE A HARD
After their final game with the Reds here Suntiay, the Cardinals will be asked to make a record-breaking jump to Pittsburg in order to play.the Corsairs at Forbes Field Mon- day.

According to present arrangements the Cards are booked to leave St. Louls Sunday night at 8:15 and arrive in Pittsburg Mon- day afternoon at 8:15. The regular starting time for games in Pittsburg is 3:30, so the Cards will barely have time to hustle out to the park providing their train is on time: They will be forced to don their uni- forms on the train, but if the train is late they probably will be saved this trode, as no game will be pares: AUSTRALIAN CRICKETER Ss TO PLAY IN ST.

But. you “‘ought to see the other fellow!” As a matter of fact Scott hasn’t been able to pitch since hé lost that memorable con- test. ir a RUNNING IN OREGON BOOTS. HE Athletics’ chances really seem to be in bandages, at the present time, al. though nobody seems to be trying to hedge any investment on the Mackmen. Krause is a complete failure for Mack this seasan, having been let go to the Baltimore olub. Morgan is not working with his customary smoothness. Coombs is wearing a harness when he pitches and not getting away with much. Plank and Bender are performing in- differenfly.

Donahue Hangs Up Records in Decathlon Meet LEY, Cal.. May 25. —In his de- Hoary aaaie” for the all-America Olympic team, James J. Donahue - of the Los Angeles A, Cc. yesterday upheld the remarkable standing he established last Monday in the hion trials eS te running broad jump his best ae-' tances were 21 feet 11 inches, 22 feet 1 inch ahd 22 feet 3-5 inch, all of which beat the best record of any aliround athlete since the national championships were established in 1886. The allround record is 21 feet 58% inches. In the 400-meter run hie time was 51 seo- : a ximately the equivalent of oO PT ccleaas tet 440 yards, the allround record for which is 54 1-5 seconds. Again, bis high jump of 5 feet 8% inches 4s better than the famous Martin Sheridan’s Deat—5 feet 8 inches fiat, though not a ies itis put was his weakest effort.. He did onlv 32 feet % inch.. But in the 100- meter dash he let out another link and .did i) 1-5 seconds, the equivalent of 10 3-5 seconds for 100 yards, which is only 1-5 of a @econd slower than the best done by ahy j a champion. ras coined inder of the full Gecathion, the 110-meter hurdles, the one throw, javelin
‘MORE SHIFTS COMING IN BROWNS’ LINE-UP LEVELAND, May %.—“I am going to keep shifting the players about in the hope of hitting a winning combination,” said Manager Wallace to the Post- Dispatch this morning. “We'll try Austin, Pratt and Laporte at their old jobs for a day or two, and if we do not win we'll think up some other scheme for a different line- up.”
ANNUAL CARDINAL MEET POSTPONED The annual meeting of the local Na- tional League club, scheduled for Sat- urday morning, was postponed until June 16, according to an announcement made by Mrs. Britton Saturday noon.

It’s All Up to Man Who Beat Mandot to Decide the Question. They can’t come too hard or too oft- en for the “Pride of the Patch,” Harry Trendall, Missouri’s champion light- weight. One by one hé has been sent against the flower of the lightweight pugilists of the West, and one by one they've all been taken care of. The worst Trendall has done since th®@ 1912 campaign started was in one of his earlier bouts, that with Willie Ritchie, by whom he was.shaded. Since that time Trendall has at least held his op- ponents even, winning from most of them. At the next show of the St. Louis Athletic Club Trendall will again be the attraction. The club is negotiating with Ray Temple, thé young man who de- feated Joe Mandot in the latter’s home elty, just a few days ago. Temple’s victory sufficiently classifies him. Tren- dall is willing, and the club is awalit- ing a reply from Temple. Bronson Badly Punished. Harry Brewer, who almost spilled Ray Bronson’s championship beans, Thursday night here, departed for his home in Kansas City, Friday night. bearing not a mark of |his encounter. Bronson, on the contrary, | had a bad eyé. a sore nose and a badly battered short-rib region. Bronson will have difficulty getting into shape for his bout with McFarland next Wednesday night at Indianapolis. Admitted His Greenness. Ray Brongon surely could not have known: much about Harry Brewer. He evidéntly considered the tobacconist a shining mark. whose goat was waiting aroufid to be caught. As soon as the men were in the ring Bron- son sauntefed over to Brewer's corner and examining his hand wrappings remarked supérciliously: ‘‘Why don’t you tape your hands like I do mine, Mr. Brewer?’’ Pipe the Mister! “Oh, perhaps I'll know better when I get your experience,” Brewer came back. And about two minutes Iater thé inex: périenced one knocked Bronsén dowh twice for the full count and twice through the ropes, the veteran ‘‘taper’’ being rescued by the gong while dreamland was reeling around @ ; Pride Goeth Before a Fall. About that same time Bronson’s manager, O’Brien, wheeled away from the ringsidé and ran out, crying: ‘‘I cag’t stay to see it!"’ Never again will egaeee ga: be guilty of the sin of overconfidence. ’ Contract Binds Palszer. Al Palzer -has quit his manager, Tom O’ Rourke, declaring that he knows now why George Dixon died a pauper. He hints that O'Rourke could tell something about the same inoident, ‘‘Palzer }has no moral courage, has the swelled head, and is money mad. Besides I have a con- tract with him which he. can’t break. I

Ellis, aac and Wingo Toss Off Another for Hardluck Jack Geyer.
The mere announcement of Jakie Geyer’s name as Roger Bresnahan's pitching nominee seems a signal for all Cardinals to play bum basébdll. Any time Jakie climbs the kopje, the Cardinal defense usually cracks, withefs and blows awey. As a resuit, the home olub loses. It did Friday, 106, Then there’s another angle. Anytime Rube Benton pute on hig glove, the Cards give up the ghost. Rube needs but ap- pear on the hurling hillock and the Cards will lay down their bats. Rube has rescued his faltering brothers four times against the Cardinals this season, and in each instance he has tamed Bresnahan’s hoisy gang. He ig credited with Friday's victory. In Friday’s frolic at the Britton pasture, Geyer had to pitch his arm off in the first six rounds because of weird support frem Mowrey, Ellis and Wingo. Entering the stretch run, Geyer was fagged weary, and although he showed signs of distress in the seventh stanza, Boss Bres- nahan suffered him to tarty and the Rhine- landers gallop away with an undeserved victory. The Reds copped two runs in the second inning when Ellis muffed Phelan’s high fly and the Red third-sacker went all the way to third. Esmond then hit to Mowrey, who made a high throw to Wingo, and Phelan counted. Esmond swiped sécond. Then McLean rolled to Hauser, wees throw had Eemond at third, - but Mowrey dropped the ball, and Eemend ecored. In the third, Bescher singled. So did Marsans. Hobby sacrificed them slong. Mitchell went out, Geyer to Koney, and when Bescher tried to score, Koney pageed to Wingo in time for thé out, but Ivey spilled the pellet, and another run was over, making three that should never have happened. At the end of the fifth the Cards had counted five rune and routed George Suggs. It looked like a triumph for Geyer, but with two out in the seventh Bescher walked, : t ij i i :
and Pe-. and ft on Esmond. and two hits positively would have been cut off. In the ninth. with one out Béscher singled anc stole. Marsane doubled. scoring Bescher. Marsané then swiped third while Mowrey slumbered. Wingo’s throw was perfect. but Mike wasn't on the bag to cover. Hobby coaxed a walk and Bresnahan ordered Mitch- ell purposely passed. Then the Cardinal in- field came in, Dut Egan walked, forcing home Marsans, while Phelan pun¢hed a single through the box, scoring two more. Bemond and McLean were easy. The Cards could do nothing with Benton. Geyer plucked a single in the sixth, but nothing elee resembling a eafé knock was allowed by the Cincinnati southpaw. With Ellis on second and Mowrey 6n first and Koney at hat, Ellis died stealing third, McLean to Phelan, in the seventh.
