After holding the fort in the West- moreland Hotel, 4496 Maryland avenue, for two days and a night against be- sieging constables, Mrs. Ruth E. Blake fled suit Monday for divorce against She alleges en, and that he received letters with endearment from women. After the suit was filed, E. Caplan, an attorney, told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that he represented two ladies’ tallors, Anton Schumack and Henry Cramer, who have claims of.$275 and $60 respectively against the Blakes. Found They Had Moved. Caplan said deputy constables from Justice of the Peace Moore's court, who were sent in quest of Mrs. Blake Fri- day, found that she and her husband had removed from the Lucerne Hotel and taken quarters at the Westmoreland Hotel, having stored their furniture. In her apartment at the latter hotel they found clothes and jewelry belong- ing to Mrs. Blake. The _ constables seized the jewelry, said Caplan, and left a watchman in charge of the clothes. But the watchman after a time quit his post for a moment, according to the lawyer, and on his return found the door locked ag-cinst him and admission refused. When the watchman reported defeat, Caplan related, two con- Stables were sent to stand guard over the Westmoreland Hotel all Friday night. The next morning a constable with an attachment was sent to the hotel and was confronted by the manager Joseph Gerardi Jr., continued the attor- hey... Gerardi protested against the state of sieg@ ‘in which the* hotel was held and called policemen to rout the constables. But the policemen, when in- formed of the circumstances, declined to interfere. Levies on All Her Property. Late in the day the Constable with an attachment was admitted by Mrs. Blake and levied on all of the property in her apartment. When a Post-Dispatch reporter tele- phoned to the Westmoreland Hotel Mon- day afternoon, he was informed that Mrs. Blake lived there, but was out. Neither was her husband at home, it was said. Mrs, Blake alleges that her husband accompanied a woman to the Virginia Hotel, in Chicago, Dec. 9, 1911, and that he was in the habit of remaining out late at night. She asked that her maid- en name, Hauskins, be restored. They were married July 7, 1903.

MOTHER, HUNTING BUYS IN SWIMMIN G1 IPS AND DROWNS Mrs. R. H. Craig of West Kirkwood Loses Life in Pond Near Home. HUSBAND OUT OF TOWN Mrs. R. E. Sprague Thought to Have Slipped Into Water While Looking for Sons. Mrs. Annie Craig, 40 years old, wife of R. H. Craig, a buyer for the Rice- Stix Dry Goods Co., was drowned Sun- day afternoon in a large pond back of the Craig home at Couch and Woodbine avenues in West Kirkwood. Her body was found at 5:15 p.m. by her sons, John, 15 years old, and Charles, 14, who had been swimming in a nearby creek. They had searched an hour for the missing woman before finding their mother’s body floating in the pond. It is belieyed by the family that Mrs. Craig became uneasy about the boys and went to look for them, thinking they had gone to the pond. The bank of the pond at the point Mrs. Craig fell in is about six feet above the water and very steep. It had been made slippery by the heavy rains and is believed to have given away with Mrs. Craig when she went too near the edge, The boys called H. C. Ochterbeck, a neighbor, who helped them recover the body by means of poles. DELEGATES ARE INJURED

Various reasons were assigned by his friends and members of his con- gregation, when it became known that the Rev. Edward D. Johnson had tendered his resignation to the Vestry Board as pastor of 8t.

To a Post-Dispatch reporter Monday the Rev. Mr. Johnson gave a new and novel reason. He said: “My resignation is dug to temper- amental inability to ‘continue as pastor of the church.” He did not care to explain further. Successful as Rector. The Rev. Mr. Johnston announced his resignation to his flock in his sermon Sunday morning. He said he regretted much that he would have to leave them and appreciated the fact that they were sorry that he was going.

The Republican party contains a larger number of prominent and experienced politicians than are to be found in the Democratic party, for prominence usu- ally goes hand in hand with official po- sitions. For the last half century the Republican party has been in almost un- interrupted control of the nation and has been supreme in a majority of the states. It has had an opportunity, there- fore, to lift its members into — uous positions.

The name of Jus- tice Hughes was prominent in this dis- cussion. Champions of Senator La Follette and Senator Cummins said they eaw much to favor their candidates in the extremely tense Taft-Roosevelt fight. United States Senator W. S.

DELEGATES NEARLY EXHAUSTS COLONEL “That’s What Makes Revolu- tions,’”” He Says, Discussing California Case in Crush.

By Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 17.—Col. Roosevelt's reception to the Nooseveit delegates and alternates today was the most strenuous experience he has gone through since he reached Chicago. Several times before the apparently endless string of enthu- siasts had passed him, he cried out, “Not another man; not another one.”’ Once the Colonel broke out of the re- ception line, in which he was surround- ed by policemen and special guards, and started across the room toward one of the side doors. | For half an- hour Col. Roosevelt was the target for handshakers and bouquet tosgers. | Tired After Half Hour. He began the handshaking with vim and enthusiasm, but after a half hour of it perspiration was rolling from his face, his voice was gétting tremulous and he was skipping over a half dozen hands at a time. Once he flashed out another indignant protest against the action of the Nation- al Committee on the California contest- ed delegate case. Greeting a party of California delegates he declared, ‘‘There Was never anything like it. That’s the kind of action that. makes revolutions.”’ | Three flashlight photographs, taken within 10 feet. of Col. Roosevelt as be stood at the head of the line, helped to increase his nervousness, and made the long procession more than his patience could endure. Finally he declared: “Hold the line as it is, and I'll pass along it.” Hastied to Illinoisans’ Room. Policemen did the best they could to hold it, and the Colonel, with a body- guard of policemen and plain clothes assistants, was hustled to the back end of the room and around through the hotel corridors to the room of the IIli- nols delegation, where an “experience meeting’’ was being held behind closed doors. As Col. Roosevelt forcibly was pro- pelled into this room policemen pushed’ the crowd back, blocked progress down the stairways. and stopped everyone. The declaration of the guardian of the Illinois headquarters, that “only Illinois delegates could get in,”’ dis- persed the crowd temporarily.

Stubbs, and Delegates Gates, in these strenuous last hours, devoted a whole afternoon to an audience composed entirely’ of women. A gathering of Chicago suffragists, it was announced, would meet at. the Illinois Theater Sunday to hear what Californians, Coloradoans and Kansans had to tell upon the subject of suffrage from their experience. The audience was enticed there under false pretenses, for the meeting turned out to be nothing save a political rally to the Roosevelt standard. Catherine Waugh McCulloch, the suf- frage leader appointed with. Jane Adams t6 present the pléa for a plank th the Republican platform and who declared in no uncertain terms her base suspi-. cions of the Colonel's motives in«com-+ ing out for woman suffrage, was time- keeper. Conscientiously, desperately, she tried to keep the speakers to the theme in hand. Her black eyes would snap, her eloquent brows would grow almost fierce and at length she would pluck the speaker by the elbow, and although Mrs. McCulloch is herself a Justice of the Peace, her efforts were to no avail. The two women delegates from Call- fornia were expected to deliver most im- portant information of interest to women. One Suffragist Has Lest Her Voice. RS. BLANEY had lost her voice Mi from'cold. She could only whis- per, but she managed to get the following across: “Worhen should ally themselves with the progressives of whatever party, and the progressive leader of the Republican party is Theodore Roosevelt, All Re- publican women should follow the Roosevelt banner.” | Mrs. Frances Collins Porter’s speech consisted of something like this: ‘I am one who does not need to speak, for I am invested with a greater power. I came from California not to talk, but to vote—for Roosevelt.”’ Then Judge Lindsey told how he went to Oyster Bay to persuade the Colonel to announces his stand in favor of wom- an suffrage, how the mighty hunter had turned upon him flercely and yelled— “Tindsay, I am for woman suffrage,” and how he (the Judge) had. hastened out to make the announcement to the newspaper chaps, . “and, he concluded,” I haven't been cast into the. Ananias Club yet, . , _Gifford Pinehot,. tall, spare, handsome } and ascetic looking, with a-nobje profile and a manner convincing of. earnestness, was less apologetic for the Colonel's motives.

HE turned out to be a plain, good, S motherly soul, stout, darfd placid. When J asked what qualities in her opinion recommended to woman to a@ political career, she answered with a touch of asperity: “Just good, common sense. I would add one other condition; a woman should be unhampered by home duties.’’ “Any more so than a man?” I in- quired. “Well, yes,” she replied. “A man should not sacrifice his family to his country, and he should be established in business, lest perforce politics be- come only an object: of livelihood to him. But a woman's importance in the home is greater, something different from dollars and cents. Twenty-five years ago I would not have gone into Public service as I do today. My chil- dren are all grown mow. There is no reason why a woman with young chil- dren shouldn't think and vote, however.”’ Then she told me something of condi- tions under the new order of things in California, how the polling places that used to be in saloons are now in churches, how it is the tendency of women to vote for men and issues rath- er than to ally themselves with parties, | how it is quite usual for husbands and wives to vote differently and how no domestic ruptures have developed, how there is a higher standard of men in California than hereabouts and how the women, though well organized, could have accomplished nothing without the leadership and help of the men. “How do you account for the greater chivalry of the men in the West?’ I asked. “It is not chivalry as it is known in effete society, but a sense of justice,” she replied. , Prim, Neat, Gentle, of the School Ma’am Type. When she told me stie had not wanted to come.go the convention, but had been urged to do so as a duty, I could readily believe it. And, when she remarked | that in four more years there will bé fifteen or twenty women aelegates and that she was sure as a result no such “disgraceful spectacie’ as the present scenes would occur. I could agree with her. If the whole convention were composed of women such as Mrs. Porter, there wouldn’t bea ripple to disturb the surface of things. As for Mrs. Isabelle Bianey, as I said, she has temporarily lost her voice, but she couldn't be a garrulous type if she would. She seems to me like—well, the gentle New England schoolma’am type that Owen Wister used to make -his cowboy heroes fr®# of love with: , T havea suspicion, yes, I feel sure shé went to Mount Holyoke to school.

HADLEY LEADER ON | ae by Minor at fbasavcn's ~FLOORFORT. R, OPPOSED 10 BOLI Missouri Executive Expects Colo- nel to Win and Platform to Be Progressive. CHOICE CAUSES COMMENT , Pinchot and Garfield, Early Fa- vorites, Shelved to Give Im- portant Post to Governor. : BY J. J. McAULIFFE, A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 17.—Gov. Hadley of Missouri will direct the battle of the RRoosevelt forces on the floor of the Re- publican national convention. This was @greed upon today at an informal con- ference of Col. Roosevelt and his man- @gers at the Congress Hotel. At a secret pow-wow of 250 Roosevelt delegates this moriling, Jesse, Tolerton, | Missouri State Game Warden, and Ho- mer Mann of Kansas City, made it clear the Missour: flelegation has no idea of bolting the national convention, under any circumstances. Their remarks were loudly applauded. Bolt Talk Discredited. “tT can imagine no contingency,” said Mann, “that could force me from the publican party. Why should I want '» leave it? If-a thief robbed my house, ~ ould I move? Of course not. The ' Aing for us to do is to get together ' and stop all this threat of a revolt, ' which I honestly believe would not '/ command a substantial following.” All the evidence in the contests which the Roosevelt men consider formidable from their standpoint was turned over to Gov. Hadley this morning. The Gov- ernor said he would make a thorough inspection of each case and that no con- tests would be made on the floor of the convention unless there was absolute merit behind it. The fact that Gov. Tiadley has been given the most con- spicuous posg in the Roosevelt ranks is causing con hent. It was or dnally decided that James R. Garfield of Ohio or Gifford Pinchot would lead the Roosevelt. convention army. Both Garfield and Pinchot, who have been loudly declaiming their inten- tion to bolt, have been quietly put in the background. by Col. Roosevelt. It Is feared the incendiary talk in the Roose- velt camp already has done much harm. Gov. Hadley is reported to have de- Clared at today’s caucus that there is too much loose talk going on among the Roosevelt men and not enough definite and persistent action. Governor Expects Victory. “I do not believe, ’ said the Governor, that any delegate from Missouri desires to bolt the action of the Republican na- tional convention. If we are against the gteam roller, the way te fight it is not to run away from it. Woulkd the Taft men want anything better than a bolt of the Roosevelt forces? I can see them laugh- ing at us now. The best way to meet the enemy is to meet him face to face and to fight him openly until we have ‘beaten him. “I believe Col. Roosevelt will be the ‘presidential nominee of this convention ‘and that a great progressive platform will be adopted. But, regardless of such @n outcome and regardless of the nomi- mee, I intend to remain true to my i party.” Tolerton expressed similar views. A mumber of Roosevelt delegates from the Fast made speeches but none of them indicated his intention to bolt. In the course of the meeting, Gifford Pinchot and Francis J. Heney were criticised for indulging in what some of the dele- gates termed “too much hot air." T. R. TO GET 4 —& ST.LOUIS VOTES

EADS. taff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, CHICAGO, June 17.—Four of the six uninstructed delegates from St. Louis heretofore credited to Taft in the cal- oulatiofis of political leaders, will go to Roosevelt on the first or second bal- lot, according te members of the St. A oe a.

Roosevelt Delegates Hold Caucus and Send Protest to Rosewater. CHICAGO, June 17.—The Roosevelt delegates from the State of Wash- ington, who were refused recogni- tion by the National Committee, held a caucus last night and decided to press their fight on the floor of the convention. Senator Miles Poindex- ter was made chairman of the dele- gation and the following resolution of protest was sent to Victor Rose- water, acting chairman of the Na- tional Committee: “Your action on the contest from the State of Washington has deprived our State of representation at the Republican National Convention and denies our people their rights. “Those persons whom you seated do not represent the Republican party of the State of Washington and the voters of.our State will not sub- mit to your biased, prejudiced and unwarranted decision. We will take the necessary steps to present the matter to the Republican National Convention and before the people of the country. No candidate whose nomination depensd upon the meth- ods used by you can carry our State.” DIPLOMATS WILL BE AT CONVENTION Attrécted by Belief That Plat- form Will Touch Southern Trade Relations.

Just a Minute By Clark McAdams. " At the Convention

CHICAGO, June I. Chicago. L . Nothing is typical here of Taft— Oftentimes have I looked and laughed. You can buy a game called “Hat in the Ring,” And amuse yourself with the bloomirg thing, Rolling it here and rolling it there, And holding it high and low in the utr, 9 times. Tipping it thus, and tipping it so, As pigs in the clover used to go. Ev’rybody is doin’ it, shooin’ it, Viewin’ it, Gathere around, and fore, and aft— But nothing is typical here of Taft. If. Taft is the novelty man’s despair— You can buy yourself a lacquered bear, With very long and cruel claws, And wear it bravely for the cause. Bear—bear—every where— On the floor and on the stair— Counting the opposition vain, Back from the wilderness again. Isn’t it silly—willy—nilly? Poor old Billy! Never the like of the handicraft— But nothing.is typical here of Taft. Irf. Now that the battle wages thick, What is so fitting as the stick? Are you a champion of Ted? Here is the pogamoggan dread. Here is your attitude of mind Done with a safety pin behind, Bearing the sacrificial spear, And knowing ‘no morta] bother here. Boys—boys! Here are the toys! O, what a noise! Fach one pushing his Httle graft— But nothing is typical here of Taft. More Experienced Than Wilson Neither Mr. Taft nor Col. Roosevelt is afflicted with Gov. Wilson's particular- ness about his visible support.

He goes about with his body inclined so far forward that if his hat fell off there would be ample time for some one to pick it up before the plodding New Yorker stepped on it. One sees a great deal of Mr. Robinson around Roosevelt headquarters and the impression is irresistible that the Col- onel has been pushing above the waist line for so long that only hope that Mr. in the present matter is purely unself- ish, for if the Colonel wins and subse- quently rewards him with another good push, he will upset him. Bahs—27. Poohis—26. Fiddlesticks—29, Appeals to reason—12. Charges of larceny—12. Epithets—#82. Oaths—40. Groans—61. Intelligence of opponent questioned—23 | Violence imminent—14 times. Policeman summoned—6 times. Disputants asked to speak .in more Hats knocked off by mistake—5 times Sincerity of opponent questioned—3 ‘Brain storms—7. Both talking at once—2 times.

The figures are life-size. With a par- ticularly rugged spot in British East africa for a background. a few minrosa trees for atmosphere, and one foot resting upon the lion's neck, the Colonel compares very favorably with Caesar after the partition of Gaul, Balboa dis- cevreing the Pacific, or Mr. McGilll- cuddy after the series with the Giants. It is @ very amusing picture, keeps a great many people sweet in the press of conflicting Opinions, and is an ex- cellent likeness of the lion. La Follette Men Popular It is something to be a La Follette or a Cummins delegate in Chicago now. You are bull-of-the-woods. You are fol- lowed around like John Arthur Johnson. if you want to walk down Michigan javenue even Gifford Pinchot and Mur- ray Crane will hold up your coat tails. The suspicion that one of these dele- gates migtit be hungry or thirsty, or not feeling well would terrorize both of the big camps.

CHICAGO, June’ 17.—The Roosevelt leaders caucused with many of the State delegations today, previous to the gen- eral caucus of the full delegations. Twenty of the Missouri 36 delegates who are for Roosevelt conferred with the leaders in the Roosevelt headquarters and determined to stand by the Roose- velt program through thick and thin. They also fixed up a slate naming Walter S. Dickey for chairman of the delegation, Thomas K. Niedringhaus for National Committeeman in place of Sec- retary Nagel, Gov. Hadley for Commit- tee on Resolutions, Jesse Tolerton, Cre- dentials Committee, and Charles Rend- lan for permanent organization. 34 tin Ohio for Taft, At a meeting of the Ohio delegation a resolution was adopted authorizing A. L. Garford of Elyria to cast &% of the Ohio 48 votes for Roosevelt and all propositions ,in the program of the Roosevelt forces. The Oklahoma delegation recognized the possibility of a bolt and in caucus \by a vote of 18 to 2 defeated a resolu- tion binding itself to support the nomi- ree of the convention for President and Vice-President. At the caucus of the Nebraska dele- gation it was unanimously agreed that strong resolutions should be passed in condemnation of Victor Rosewater for his action as chairman of the National Committee in the contest cases. Twelve of Georgia’s 28 delegates are regroes and five of them were injured in a wreck on the outskirts of Chicago today. Because of their absence, the Georgia caucus was postponed. Henry Blun Jr., national committeeman from Georgia, said today that he believed all the negroes on the delegation would remain true to their instructions. Pennsylvania delegates passed resolu- tions indorsing Col: Roosevelt; also resolutions of esteem for William Flynn, former State Senator and Roosevelt political boss. With a national committeeman still to be chosen by the New York delegation, its caucus selected Col. Michael C. Davy for permanent organization; rules and order of business, Ezra Prentice; creden- tials, George R. Malby; platform and resolutions, William Barnes Jr. The Michigan delegation passed reso- lutions commending former National Committeeman John W. Blodgett. Arizona’s caucus indorsed a platform plank for a more liberal irrigation pol- icy. New Mexico, in its caucus, selected committee members, all of whom are for Taft except H. O. Bursum, @ Roose- velt supporter. who is to be on the Com- mittee on Platform and Resolutions. Lyon’, Foe Wins in Texas. \ The Texas delegates were in control of H. F.

CHICAGO, June 17.—Senator Dixon emphatically declared today that the temporary roll call of the convention at this hour showed that Roosevelt would be nominated by a majority of at least 42, and that Senator Borah would be chosen temporary chairman over Sen- atot Root by a larger majority. “We checked up our list of delegates, known to be for Roosevelt, and found unquestionably that we would control the convention by a clean majority of 42 votes,” said Senator Dixon. “Put that in your notebook and see if this, my first definite claim, does not preve to be about right when it’s all

trate the old truth that man’s opinion of what is to be: is half wish and half environment.

His opponents think that his per- so unusual a manifestatior as ty offset any good His friends, on the ' cheered ‘by the audacity of his course. They are counting on Wis strengthening any wavering friends/as well as upon his winning over any Opponents who are not riveted to the Taft candidacy. The X or unknown quantity the Republican party situation is col. ored vote from the South. It i» the weakness of the Taft cause. It is & weakness not only because it does not represent a voting strength pro- portionate to it, influence in the con- vention, but a weakness also because it cannot be depended upon to stand tied. There ts a break in the Mississippi del- egation and another in the Georgia del-\ egation.

THE BIG MEETING SET FOR TONIGHT Now the fight over the temporary chairmanship seems likely to give the first reliable indication of the lineup and it may be left to the followers of La Follette and Cummins to decide the question, if they are willing to take the responsibility, but they may prefer to withhold their votes rather than be counted with either side.. Neutrality is their strong card and they would find it difficult to support the candidate of either side without subjecting themselves to misrepresentation. The Roosevelt meeting tonight will give opportunity for an outburst of en- thusiasm, and as the ex-President is go- ing to speak, it is safe to predict that he will studiously refrain from praising the Republican National Committee. In fact, he may brush up on the crim- inal law and make some additions to the adjectives which he has already em- ployed in describing the various forms of larceny which he has charged against his opponent. The war goes merrily on, and I feel even more than a journalistic interest in watching it. TAFT MAN TELLS OF BRIBE OFFER Louisiana Neste aleaate Says $1000 Was Offered to Him to Support Roosevelt. CHICAGO, June 17.—After a day and night surcharged with rumors of bribery, the first definite accusation of corrup- tion has come. F. H. Cook, described by the Taft headquarters as a Baptist minister and a bank cashier in Vidalia. Concordia Parish, La., made an affidavit in which he declared that $1000 had been offered to him to desert the adminis- tration forces and vote for Roosevelt. Cook is a negro delegate, “I never heard of Cook and I think it is all a pure fake,’’ said Senator Dixon. There are 530 negro delegates to the Chicago convention and of these the Taft forces are counting on not less than 48. The Roosevelt men say the Taft forces will hold nothing like this number. Clark Grier, white, a delegate from Georgia, announced that although instructed for Taft he would vote for Roosevelt and would take with him five other delegates. The Rodsevelt men later claimed five votes from Mississippi. The 12 Georgia negro delegates are on their way from Coney Island, New York, where they have been having an airing. According to the Taft sleuths, the man who has been playing havoc with the negro delegates gqollected by thie President’s managers, is the negro chauffeur of George W. Perkins. Hence the admonition to the colored brother to ‘‘watch out or Mr. Perkins'll ger you.”’

l were MILK SLOGAN 10 Last Summer 319 Baby Deaths Were Prevented in Brave Fight for Tenement Tots. PURE MILK SAVED THEM And the Need for Helpful Ser- vice This Summer Already Is Being Felt. If 819 baby lives had been among those sacrificed in the Titanic disaster, what a poignant stroke of deep pit- ifulness would have cut to the heart of all humanity! But if, at the moment of ultimate peril, there had come the sudden res- cuing of these 319 baby lives from the peril of death—O, the universal cry of great gladness that would have ac- claimed the saving of the little ones! Well, this is precisely what happened in St. Louis last summer, devoid only of the setting of sea horror that marked the Titanic tragedy—319 little babies of the tenements were snatched from the very jaws of death at a moment when, but for the timely help of the pure miik movement, those 819 babies would surely have died. They were very near death, the death that comes to babies because of being fed with impure milk during the hot summer time. The doctors and nurses at the pure milk stations to which these 419 babies were carried in their mother’s erms had little hope of saving their lives. But they went at the task man- fully. And

thanks to the wholesome- ness of the milk furnished by the St. Louis Pure Milk Commission, which is financially aided by the Post- Pispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund, these 319 baby lives were saved. It was a stubborn fight. A little baby is a very frail and weak creature and its life is easily snuffed out. Only a day or two more of feed- ing with impure milk and these 319 Lables would have been doomed. Not all the mother-love in the world could have saved them. But pure milk saved them—the pure milk which their mothers would have been unable to obtain were it not for the skiJled and beneficent service made possible by the St. Louis Pure Milk Commission and the support of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund by the Post-Dispatch’s generous readers. These 319 babies, who else would have died, are alive and joyously | well today. And the lives of many more babies of the tenements will be saved this summer—of as many more as the con- tributions to the Pure Milk Fund en- able the St. Louls Pure Milk Commis- sion to guard and protect against the grim death that stalks through the tene- ments of the city’s crowded districts during the debilitating heat of the sum- mer days and nights. This is the only limit set to the scope of the splendid life-saving service—the limit of money necessary to save the » prong lives. Would there be any lack of money for the rescuing of the babies if one ac- tually saw the thousands of tenement tots whose lives soon will be placed in deadly peril by the summer-time poison of impure milk? Bless you, no! The money would flow in a golden stream of salvation to these endangered and help- less little ones of the poor. Well, they’re there, Calling to you for help, all these tenement tots: You can see them any time, their imperiled hosts increasing ominously as the summer’s heat increases. The seeing will almost break your heart—unless you enlist in the good movement headed by the St. Louis Pure Milk Commission and the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund and do everything you can to foil grim old Death in his reaping of the little flowers that so piteously strive for life in the tenements. This is the plain truth of the matter. Save the babies! INDIANA SLAYER | IS ARRESTED HERE Levy Lockhart, otherwise known as George Blackburn, was taken to Rock- port, Ind., Sunday, where he is wanted for killing a policeman and wounding another, horse stealing and violating his parole from the penitentiary at Michi- gan City, Ind.

Pierson had said that he still loved his former wife and did not care to live without her. Sunday afternon he went to Mrs. Shelley’s home and crept into the house. Mrs: Shelley was lying on a couch in the living room. Pierson shot her twice through the body and then turned the weapon upon himself, sending bullets through his neck and heart. Mrs. Shelley staggered into the kitch- en, where her husband, William Shelley. {and her daughter were, and fell into her daughteér’s arms, saying: “Your fa- ther shot me.”’ Dr. O. D. Meyer and Dr. Ralph D. Riley, who were called, had Mrs. Shelley rémoved to the Missouri Baptist Sani- tarium. The bullets were found to have passed through the left lung and to also have fractured two ribs. Dr. Riley said Monday Mrs. Shelley was getting glong nicely and there was a probabil- ity of her recovery. Mrs. Shelley was married to Pierson 2 years ago. They had troubl&® and Pierson left his wife and two children and went to the Philippines as a soldier for four years. While he was away his wife obtained a divorce, and some time later married Shelley. Mrs. She!- ley is 37 years old. Pierson was 4 years old and” was an invalid. Visited Him Three Months Ago. Miss Bridget Ash of 2731 Clark ave- =—s=.j/Nnue accompanied Mrs. Shelley on her {first visit to Pierson three months ago. a She said Monday that Mrs. Shelley asked her to go along because she did not want to go alone. They went to the house and Miss Ash called Pierson from his room. Resented Her Call. “What are you doing here?” Pier- $0.1 asked when he saw his former wife. ‘‘I don’t go out there and bother you.”’

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 17.—Though wire communication still is interrupted, additional details drifting in today show that 29 persons were killed and perhaps scores injured by the storm that swept Central West Missouri Saturday even- ing. The storm struck Kansas City late Saturday, causing the death of two per- sons and doing many thousands of dol- lars worth of damage, and then swept to the south through Bates County. The path of the storm was half a mile wide and five miles long. Between Merwin and Adrian 19 pérsons were killed. At Creighton, Cass County, two are known to be dead, while at Leeton in Johnson County two are dead, and unverified reports say others have been killed. In Bates County the property loss is esti- mated at $75,000. After striking Merwin, the storm took a northwestward course, passing Se- dalia, where the wind did much dam- age.

BRYAN AS A REPORTEB. Col. W. J. Bryan will report the Chicago con- vention for Post-Dispatch readers. Mr. Bryan is an accomplished newspaper man as well as a gifted orator. After his defeat for the Senate in Nebraska 17 years ago he became a member of the regular staff of an Omaha paper. He -reported the great McKinley convention in St. Louis in. 1896 for that paper, fraternizing with and the fortunes of the large corps of professional (correspondents. He went in a news- paper capacity ag well as that of a delegate to the Chicago convention of the same year that gave him his first nomination to the presidency. The Republican convention of 1912 meets under conditions that recall those prevalent in the Demacracy in 1896, and its events, as viewed from the standpoint of the man who has himself been} three times the nominee of his party, will have peculiar interest and value. , The Post-Dispatch plans provide specialists of distinction for recording every phase of the de- velopments at the convention. A bureau of trained reporters under competent direction has, of course, been established in Chicago for prompt and accurate work in news features. Cartoonist Minor has been sent up to draw cartoons and car- ficatures from life. Mr. Clark McAdan.s is there to utilize the possibilities in humorous descrip- tions, of which the convention at this date prom- fwep to supply @ wealth. Miss. Marguerite Martyn will discuss convention topics from the woman's standpoint, illustrating her articles with charac- teristic sketches. FESS The great staff of special corregpondents and artists of the New York World will contribute to the Post-Dispatch columns. No convention of greater importance has met since the Civil War. To read the Post-Dispatch Wl be almost the equivalent of being presenj yqureelf. = = = Says Elihp Root: “I bélteve Mr. Taft now has a majority of the convention and the only question is whether they will stick for him.” Senator Root is not only logical, but he is al- most . diabolically clever at times. It requires some to perceive that if all the Taft’ délegates desert to Roosevelt Mr. Taft will al- Most certainly be defeated while Copl.~Roosevelt will probably have enough votes to beat La Fol- lette and Cummins. —

i i i — a DON’T BE TOO HARD oN THE FLY. ‘The fly has never been a universal favorite nor even half;way appreciated in those regions, like

Egypt, where, together with the sungliine, he has} in reality béen the main standby of sanitation and the best friend of man. Even in normal yearg the fly is at the height of his unpopalarity just at this season, when he enjoys the. and violent enmity ofall bajd-headed ‘mankind, including editors. This year the fly has the editors worked up to a frenzy, and we have never seen the like of abuse aimed at his nimble and care-free person. Among others, the editor of the New York Sun vents his spleen: The fly is a degdiler enemy of man than eny wijd beast in the forest. Horrors! How has the human race survived his deadly ferocity at all? The fly has outnum- bered us a million to one, and some of us arejjien that the Roosevelt cause at Chic:go is suf- here yet. It must be that-our esteemed contem- porary in his wrath has exaggerated. As for ourselves, we hold no brief for the fly, nor does the fly need a champion. Let it be ai- mitted that-be.is a bad egg ‘and a bad insect. We will go further and say that, while in no other qase would We sanction an execution on general principles, we would even advocate the fly's ex- “on general principles or any old prin- or any new principles whatever. So be it. swe #0: BOt propose to yield cur reason to y an’ injustice just because it is the fashion ye him. Let us not be too hard on the fly. ‘||scramble to further his own personal ambitien: PRESIDENTIAL WARD POLITICS. We indulge the hope that the rumor of Col. Roosevelt's intention to leave Chicago before the convention meets is true. His going there to re- sort to’all the arts of the wari politician and the ‘ambitious demagogue to capture votes was dis- creditable in the extreme. His leaving would in- dicate a spark of sensibility and of regard for de- cent public opinion. From the standpoint of ultimate public wel- fare, it may be well that Col. Roosevelt yielded to the impulse to plunge into the convention, It is a timely exposure of ‘his rea] character and]’ purpose, The spectacle of an ex-President in be- half Of his. own third-term eapdidacy for the presidency buttonholing delegates and devising: schemes to stampede his party’s convention ought {© disgust his most enthusiastic followers. His desperate effort to force hig candidacy on his party with threats and maledictions and his unbridled denunciation of all who oppose is a foretaste of what - another Roosevelt presidential experience would be. Armed with what he would regard as a commission from the people to work their will, as he interprets it, upon this country to what lengths would he not go? — Who ean doubt that a third-term: commission would be merely ‘the foundation for a fourth-term commigsion to carry out “my policies?”' With the power of the President to support his pre- tensions, the task of getting an apparent man- date for another term and enforcing it would be possible. The most disgraceful act of a campaign full of Theodore’ Roosevelt in Chicago. It brings the presidential contest to the level of ward politics. = = Free bridge completion is a fine platform for St. Louisans to get together on. = = “a i i OAPT. SCOTT'S SUMMER VACATION. Shall we turn from heated situations of the tur- bid and congested world a moment to refresh the mind with the cool picture of Capt. Scott’s isola- tion at the extreme South Pole? _The ‘latest tidings of Scott, brought to London by the first member of his expedition to return, depict him as placidly spending the summer on a spot even more boreal than Wequetonsing and due serenely there to sojourn with the penguins and snowshoe about until March 4. It is indeed an alluring vision to those un- worldly spirits who would enjoy a hiatus be- tween now and the inayguration of President— shall we say Wilson? The excitements of the period promise to be of a rare order, aid there are few other places to which their vibtations will not carry an enervating daily thrill. To appreciate Capt. Scott’s sensation of perfect immunity from discord and such shocks as the nomination of Col. Roosevelt, for instance, would be te the charted and wired world, it would be necessary to chloroform the mind and perhaps put it on ice as well. That enviable condition, by the way, may be largely sought by intelligent and sensitive minds which could not otherwise find a numb and news- less sphere—in the event that American common sense fails at the polls in November. Lh A he ‘ i i Why should the Racquet Club be such a flood center? Surely it is not a low place, nor on the other hand has it ever been accused of a special affinity for water.

= = % y= = SPREADING TETANUS IN SOUTH. Mayor W. P. Miller plans to make Muskogee, Ok., the center from which influences promotive of an unroariously patriotic celebration of July 4 will spread throughout the South. The Mayor figures that as a boy in Texas he missed un- computable volumes of fun, because it was the custom to have firecrackers under climati¢ handi- caps on Christmas day instead of on Independ- ence day. He is dgtermined that the rising gen- eration in the New South shall no longer be de- prived of all the features of the old-fashioned Northern Fourth of a decade or more ago. The Mayor does not realize what he is doing. With its seeds once spread throughout the sunny iestgis he will find the tetanus germ is harder to éxtirpate than the heokworm. The Mayer should come to St. Louis three weeks from next Thursday and see the superiority of the safe and sane to unsafe and insane celebration as a vehicle for ‘patriotism. For, of course, St. Louis is going to have an- other safe and sane celebration in 1912. The bat- tle against the annoying and dangerous features of the other kind of celebration was fought out several years ago and no need exists for renewing it.

False fire alarms can in a great measure be prevented by a suitable device or fixture to be attached above the fire alarm box, out of reach. I refer te the red light system adopted by the Po- lice Department. I will try to demonstrate the advantages of such a system in case of a false or true alarm. Most of the false alarms are turned in at night. the party turning in the false alarms knew the instant he opened the door or pulled down the hook it would complete the circuit with the red light above him, I think he would be very apt net to turn in the alarm. Of course, it would be necessary to instruct the police the same as they are instructed, in regard to their patrol box lights to keep a special watch on boxes where false alarms are most frequent. This would also enable anyone standing close by and seeing the flash of the light to get a description of the party turning in an alarm. In case of a true alarm it would act as a sig- nal that the alarm had been sent in, thus saving valuable time of others intent on same purpose who qould help in rescue work if necessary, as every second counts in an emergency. This light should be large enough to be plainly seen for sevy- eral blocks to call the attention of the police and also to direct the firemen to the box if the fire is not visible, CHARLES W.* HANSEN. Did Taft Say This? Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Mr. William H. Taft, who was made President of the United States by Theodore Roosevelt, says he and his friends will wreck the Republican party rather than allow the people of this coun- try to elect Theodore Roosevelt President of the United States again. Isn’t that the greatest ex- hibition of gratitude and love of the Republican principles on record? E, F.

Woodrow Wilson. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Gov. Wilson of New Jersey, with a heart of flesh, and not of stone, commands the attention not only of America, but the nations of the earth as well, knowing that the mind is the standard ef the man. fhe age in which we live demands men of ealiber to carry on the affairs of state and na- tion. Gov. Wilson of New Jersey is the man for the Democratic party to nominate at the Balti- more convention, because of his high standing, not only in the educational world, but because he has proven himself to be one of the best Governors the State of New Jersey has ever had. With him we can win, without him we must lose the best opportunity that has been afforded the Demecratic party for years, The trusts, and high cost of living will be taken into account if Gov. Wilson is nominated gnd elected President of the United States. He is an honest and fear- less gentleman who cannot be classed with such men who would run the country to suit them- selves. STEPHEN TAYLOR DEKINS, Stray Cur Nuisance. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Can't you induce the dog catcher to call in cur neighborhood once in a while? Bates and Alabama streets. There would be a big harvest of “man’s best friends,” alias disturbers of the night’s peace, alias good-for-nothing curs, alias —well never mind!—make incidentally a few “lovers of animals” pay license. Love is ex- pensive, unfortunately not enough so in tkis instance. Should be $25 for each and every cur in a city, where they are only a danger and a nuisance. Send us the dog catcher and send him about € o’clock a. m Address, Bates and Alabama, apparently the home district of “lovers ef animals,” if there is one specifically anywhere. I loye them, too—the dogs, I meanon the wagon to the pound! Please, Mr. Dog Catcher, sinaesl WORRIED, Office Tyranny. To the Editor of the Post-Diepatca. In the freight accounting office of the railroad where I am employed thgre ate about 160 clerks. The auditor and head of this department happens to be the secretary of a fraternal inéurgnee lodge. His chief clerk is a@ man who constantly borrows, er. attempts to -berrow, money, from men eém- ployed in the office. Whenever any of us joing the lodge of which the auditor is secretary we gre made to feel that our chance for promotion has been boosted, which is undoubtedly the case. The same favoritism is shewn any one of us who logns: the chief clerk @ few dollars. Incidentally, the money is rarely returned. We are made to feel that getting a $5 raise on the month Is ample re- turn for our loan. Should» we both join the so- clety and loan the money, we feel doubly secure of holding our job for a while To an outsider it might seem that the remedy would be simple. That is, by appealing to the higher officials. Should any of us do s0, we would last about one week after the appeal. The officials all stick together. They even have a so-called club, to perpetuate their “trugt.” These are facts. I have been up against the game for several years. As I have a wife and several chi)- dren, I am between the devil and the deep sea. I do not feel that I can quit, as I hardly make a living as it is, and if I started in another position, I would have to do so at a much lower salary, and more than likely run up against the same condi- tions, or similar ones elsewhere. I have very lit- tle left except some small iota of respect, and I cannot prostitute that by agreeing to such condi- tions as these men try to impose. I do not think that such conditions exist in ali large offices, but have no doubt that they exist In a great number of them, end tend to discontent which accounts for much of the growth of Social- ism.

Semiramis Written for the Post-Dispatch | By ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE ILLUSTRATED BY ELEANOR SCHORER. INUS, King of Nineveh, paused in his triumphant march of conquest {about 800 B. C.) to subdue Bactria, his enemies’ capital city. Bit his best. trcops were hurled back, beaten from the city’s walls. His cleverest plans failed. He could neither storm the place nor epture by siege. Unless he could: take Bactria his campaign would be a fiure. His scheme on conquest scemed crumbling. Then it was that a Weman came to his aid; and, incidentally, changed history. The woman was Semiramis, wife of Oannes, one of Ninus’ generals. She was only 20 years.old. And she was not only gloriously beautiful, but gifted with a genius worthy of Napoleon. Semiramis went to the teny of - " y. whereby he could capture Bactria. Her plan was so amazingly clever and | aam thal simple that it roused the King’s wildest admiration. He acted..on me advice, seized Bactria, and then found he had fallen hopélessly in love > ‘with the woman who had made the city’s conquest possible, to him, But Oannes, her husband, also adored her. And he had: Ro wish. ive her up, even to his King. Finding resistance to the royal will was" =f Amipossible, Oannes killed himself, And Ninus married. Semiramis, os As 800n as she was Queen she began to work for the advancement of her new husband's kingdom. And, when she had helped him make that > . kingdom one of the greatest on earth, she decided to get rid of Ninus and 7) + Feole it on her own account. Whether she was avenging Oannes or was | ™oyed by mere ambition cannot be known. This is what she did. ~ She had already won the hearts of. the chief men of the kingdom. They _ Were slaves to-her beauty and were ready to lay down their lives for -her. » Bo, having perfected her plot, she went to Ninus and begged him to make her the absolute ruler of his kingdom for just five short days, She told him it ‘Was @ mere whim, but that it meant much to her, Ninus consented. In fact, by this time he was so utterly under her influence that he could

“She Raised a Mighty Army and Oonquered Persia, Egypt and , Ethiopia.”’ ) sA@eny her ncthing. He handed Semiramis the reins of full power “for five d ort days.” Before the end of that time she had put Ninus to death and '’Wwas sole monarch of the realm. Then Semiramis proceeded to qualify as the first “New Woman” of Without in any -~way ceasing from her conquest of hearts (and }| the chronicle of her romance is as long as it is unedifying) she set out to. conquer the whole world as well. She raised a mighty army and placed Sherself at its head. With it she conquered Persia, Egypt, most of Ethiopia, and, indeed, carried her triumphs into, India itself. There, however, the . harge of the Hindoo King’s war elephants routed her troops and sent P™her back home with barely a third of hor once invincible army. 2 During .this campaign she was told by a soothsayer that she should reign until her son should plot to kill her. As her only son, Ninyds, was devoted to her, she believed his prophecy meant she should rule forever. ‘Returning @ her kingdom, she built Babylon, the city whose hanging gardens «nearly 400 feet above ground) formed one of the Seven Wonders ef the world. Babylon’s 50 streets were laid out in«exact checkerboard _~ pattern, each 15 miles long. They were surrounded by a square of walls, ench side of which was 15 miles in length, 360 feet high and 87 feet thick. | One hundred gates of solid brass were cut into the walls. Much of Babylon _ ‘was, of course, bullt after Semiramis’ day.. _. 80 supreme was the Queen's beauty and so strong the power of her Loy that once, when @ rebellion broke out, she had merely to go forth ' into the streets, alone and unveiled, against the rebels, in order to make them cringe submissively to her commands. - When she had ruled 42 years Semiramis learned that Ninyas, her son, ‘conspiring to kill her and seize the throne.

E course of true love must never run quite smooth, ’tis said. That doubts assail and proof and tests are required are not signs that love is tottering, but only jockeying on

firmer, truer balance. When the first mean little suspicion creeps in to crowd one out of this perfect bliss the next impulse is. to get back. And I don’t know how it is with a man, but with the daughters of Eve from time im- memorial at a time iiKke that the course of least resistance is by way of the for- tune teller. So it is when you observe a perfect- ly modern maid with high, smooth brow and every Indication of a lavish edu-

cation, seeking out one of these rem- nants of an age of ignorance and super- stition, it isn’t evidence that her mind is failing from overstudy or anything like, that—but just another Indication of a girl in love.

A JOURNEY

By Col. dohn J. Astor (Copyright, 1910, D. Appleton & Co.) Published by arrangment _be- tween the Post-Dispatch and the executors of the J. J. Astor estate. SYNOPSIS. In the year 2000 A. D. several scientists resolved to take a trip through the planets. Hitherto this had:been impossible; But a clev- erly devised airship, the Callisto, driven by anew and wonderful force known as Apergy, made the aerial journey simple. The four men who volunteered to explore the stars in the Callisto were Dr. Cortlandt, U. §S. ovV- ernment expert: Col. Bearwarden, president of the Terrestial Axis Straightenin Co. ; Deepwater, Secretary'of the Navy; and Rich- ard Ayrault, a young capitalist, who was a dabbler in science and was engaged to Svivia Preston, a Vassar undergraduate. their journey to the stars is described. After adventures among the stars they arrive on Jupiter and start explorations, CHAPTER XV. Saturn. ANDING on a place about ten degrees north of the equator, so that they might obtain a good view of the great rings—since on the line only the thin edge would be visible—they opened a port-hole with the same caution they had exercised on Jupiter. Again there was a rush of air, showing that the pressure without was greater than that within; but on this occasion the ba- rometer stopped at 88, from which they calculated that the pressure was pounds to the square inch on their bodies, instead of 15 at sea-level on earth. This difference was so slight that they scarcely felt it. They aiso discarded the apergetic outfits that had been so useful on Jupiter, as unneces- sary here. The air was an icy biast, ard though they quickly closed the open- ing, the interior of the Callisto was considerably chilled. Expecting, as on Jupiter, to find principally vertebrates of the reptile and bird order, they carried guns and car- tridges loaded with buckshot and No. 1, trusting for solid-ball projectiles to their revolvers. which they shoved into their belts. They also took test-tubes for experiments on the Saturnian bacilli. Hanging a bucket under the pipe lead- ing from the roof, to catch any rain that might fall—for they remember the scarcity of drinking water on Jupi- ter—they set out in a southwesterly dl- rection. | Walking along, they noticed on all sides tall lilies immaculately pure in their whiteness, and mushrooms and toadstools nearly a foot high, the for- mer having a delicious fi and ex- treme freshness, as though only an hour old. Suddenly two large white birds rose directly in front of them. Like thought, Bearwarden and Ayrault had their guns up, snapping e thumb- pieces over “‘safe” and pulling the trig- ers simultaneously. Bearwarden, hav- ng double buckshot, killed his bird at the first fire; but Ayrault, having only No. 1, had to give his the second bar- rel, almost all damage in cases bethg in the head. On coming close to their victims they found them to meas- ure 12 feet from tip to tip, and to have a tremendous thickness of feathers and down. » . ‘Th are doubtless Northern birds, ortiandt, “that have just come It is easy to believe that the depth to which the temperature may fall in the upper air of this planet must be sometnee startling.” ° fshment. Every mushroom had peared the toadstools still re- mal "Is it ye we 4id not see them?” gasped Ayrau Concluding that they must have been staken, they continued on their jour- ney.

For sev- eral minutes he worked industriously, used the rubber at the end of his pencil, tried again, and then scratched out. “That humming confuses me so that I cannot work correctly,” said he, ‘‘while the most irrelevant things enter my mind in spite of me, and mix up my figures.’’ “I found the same thing,” said Bear- warden, “but said nothing, for fear I should not be believed. In addition to going blind, for a moment I almost forgot what I was trying to do.”’ Having ascended a few hundred feet, they sat down near some trees to rest, the musical hum continuing meanwhile unchanged. The ground was strewn with large colored crystals, apparently rubies, sapphires and emeralds, about the size of hens’ eggs, and also large sheets of jsinglass.. Picking up one of the latter, Ayrault examined it. Points of light and shade kept forming on its surface, from which rings radiated like the circles spreading in all direc- tions from a place in still water at which a pebble is thrown. He called his companions, and the three examined it. The isinglass was about ten inches long by eight across, and contained but few impurities. Im addition to the spreading rings, curious forms were con- tinually taking shape and dissolving. Suddenly a cloud passed over the ta- ble, and almost immediately disap- peared, and then a sharpened pencil with which Ayrault had been writing began to trace on a sheet of paper, in an even hand, and with a slight fric- ] sound, omtop!’ said Bearwarden; “let us each for himself describe in writing what Wgg . he has Ssment they had done this, and In a momen then compared notes...

Vegetarian Dishes for Summer With Nut and Cheese Flavors

NUMBER of vegetarian dishes made appetizing by the use of nuts, cheese, macaroni, rice and the like are desirable to serve during the hot months. They give va- riety to the diet. In the recipes append- ed ail measurements are made level. ) Nepenmret MACARONI WITH PEA- NUT BUTTER—Macaroni, like all starchy foods, should be cooked in boil- ing salted water. It is ruined if placed in water at a lower temperature. Break | macaroni in one inch pieces; there should be one cupful. Cook. 20 minutes, or until soft, in two quarts of boiling water, to which has been added one tablespoonful of salt. Drain in strainer, pour over one quart of cold water (which prevents pieces from adhering), and put in a buttered baking dish. Scald two cupfuls of milk In a double boiler, and add gradually, while stirring con- stantly, to three and one-half table- spoonfuls of peanut . butter. When blended, season with one teaspoonful of salt and pour over the macaroni. Cover and bake in a slow oven 4 minutes. Remove cover, sprinkle with one cup- ful of buttered cracker crumbs, increase the oven heat and bake until crumbs are. browned. Allow from one-fourth to one-third cupful of melted butter to a cupful of cracker crumbs. Always mix buttered crumbs with a fork, so that the crumbs may be evenly coated and light. EA ROAST.—Break stale bread in pieces, dry in oven, roll, and put through a puree-strainer; there shdéuld be three-fourths cupful of bread crumbs. Drain -canned pees, and rinse thorough- ly with cold water. Put In a saucepan, cover with cold water, bring to the boil- ing-point, and let boil three minutes. Drain, and force through a puree-strain- er; there should be one-half cupful of pulp. Mix bread crumbs and pea pulp. and add one-fourth cupful of chopped English walnut meats, one egg slightly beaten, one tablespoon of sugar, three- fourths teaspoonful of salt, one-eighth teaspoenful of pepper, one-fourth cupful of melted butter and three-fourths cup- ful of milk. When well mixed, turn into a small breadpan lined with par- affin paper. Cover with buttered paper and bake In slow oven 40 minutes. Re- move in hot serving dish and serve with or without tomato sauce. GBAPLEIGH CHEESE PUDDING.— Remove.the crusts from a 5-cent stale bakers’ loaf, and cut bread in one- half-inch slices lengthwise of loaf. Spread generously with butter, and cut in strips. Line the sides of a buttered one-quart pudding dish with strips, and arrange remaining pieces lattice-fashion in bottom of dish. Cut one-half pound of soft mild cheese in small pieces, or force through a chopper, and put in dish; then pour over the following mix- ture. Beat two eggs slightly, and add one cupful of thin cream or top milk, one tablespoonful of butter, one tea- spoonful of salt, one-half teaspoonful of mustard, one-fourth teaspoonful of pap- rika, and a few grains of cayenne. Bake in @ moderate oven 380 minutes, and serve very hot. Arrange around a din- ner napkin folded on the diagonal.— Woman's Home Companion.

~ BRESNAHAN WANTS ONLY FLEET MEN “TOBUILD CARDS Like McGraw, Roger Insists That Scouts Pick Up Only Speedy Players in Minors.

Harmon or Steele to Try to Stop Losing Streak of Cardinals NEW YORK, June 17. FTER a day’s vacation, the Card- inals and Superbas will resume hostilities on the other end of the Brooklyn Bridge today. In an effort to break the losing streak of his club, Manager Bresnahan will probab- ly select Bob Harmon or Bill Steele to do the hurling. The Brooklyn pitcher may be ‘‘Smoke’’ Stack, who wound up Saturday's frolic. Manager Bresnahan hasn’t decided whether he will play center field and bench ‘‘Rebel’’ Oakes. It was Oakes’ loose play principally that lost Satur- day’s game. However, it is almost certain that Ed Koney will continue in left with Magee on first and Huggins on second. Arnold Hauser is due to rejoin his mates today.

By W. J. O’CONNOR Of the Post-Dispatch Soprting Staff. NEW YORK, June 17. H® secret of Johnny McGraw’s team this year lies in the fact that Little Napoleon has enough good substitutes to keep the regulars fighting tooth and nail to hold their jobs. Then the whole caboodle of Giants are mere kids, Matty and Wiltse excepted. McGraw’'s instructions t6 his scouts are that no player shall be recom- mended unless he has the first essential to success In the big arena, the same being speed. Slow men never are tak- en south by McGraw. When the annual expedition into Dixie land starts from the Polo Grounds each spring, every man on the club is a speed merchant. ™ Then McGraw proceeds to teach each player how to take advantage of his nectnté jpabitie am § * * . JOHNSON WEIGHS 23 POUNDS MORE THAN JIM FLYNN With 17 More Days to Train Both Boxers Are Still Above Normal. EAST LAS VEGAS, N. M., June 17.— Just 17 days before the world’s cham- pionship fight, Jack Johnson weighs 219 pounds and Jim Flynn 196 pounds, ac- cording to official measurements taken Sunday by Dr. Edwin B. Shaw, surgeon for the Santa Fe railroad and former president of the State medical board. Other measurements made at the time show the following: figures for the men: biceps, Right forearm, forearm, est. t rest, inspiration, t calf, inches Dr. Shaw eulogized Flynn, saying that he absolutely sound and a man who ought to be able to stand almost unlim- ited punishment. He found Johnson in good shape, but commented on his: in- ferior development in chest expansion. He drew the conclusion that Johnson might lack endurance for a long route. Fiynn Too Heavy? If Flynn keeps at his present weight, he will enter the ring many pounds above what he is reported to have weighed for any previous bouts in which he was in good shape. Flynn has never weighed over 18 pounds for any match, and his best weight recently has been considered 175. He is listed in the An- drew guide book of 1912 as fighting best at 165 pounds, Johnson weighed more for Jeffries than for any bouf in his history. He waa reported at the time as weighing 205 pounds. Thus, if Johnson gets down to his normal weight, he will have to take off permanently an average of about one pound per day. This ought not to seriously worry the big fellow. If FMiynn undertakes to get close to his listed weight of other days, he will have to scram- ble. —_—@-——_—_ Tom Finnegan a Caller. Thomas Patrick Finnegan, the former 8t.

Westwood City Championship Golf Course Unfit for Workouts of Tour- nament Entries. ; Soaking rains of the past two days have made it impossible for ‘tat the city golf championship to get workouts on the tournament links, With the event but a few days off, the loss of opportunity to play ov the course will go hard with those of the local contingent unable to participate fh th recent State tournament. ‘See These include Chris Kinney, Harry Allen, Ralph McKittrick, W. Arthur Stickney and others who have excellent chances to land in first place, or at least In the semi-finals. The city title this year wil] be decided on the Westwood links, in Kirkwood. Mem- bers of the To ment Committee announced this morning that the rain had put the greens in. bad shape and that practice could not be held there Monday. It was thought probable the course would be fit for work- outs by Tuesday or Wednésday, if no fur+ ther rain fell. Stickney Is Favorite. Stuart Stickney’s good golf at Kansas City coupled with the fact that the city cham- pionship almost immediately follows and is therefore eure to find him on edge, gives him the best chance to land first this year. Entries have been numerous and practically all of the known stars of the city are en- tered.
