Pt Both the Republican and the Demo- _ ratic city committees will meet next Tuesday to organize. Charles (Cap.)

m ry BODE APPEARS WINNER
Defeat of John Alt for. County Court Judge Also a Serious Loss to Organization.
The Essen machine, severely jolted by the first returns in the St. Louts County Republican primaries, got an- Other shock Thursday, when returns from the Second Legislative District of the county indicated that Sam D. Hodgdon had won a nomination for the Assembly by & votes over Floyd D. Brooks. Hodgdon has been an anti- Essen leader. George A. Bode’s nomination for Sher- iff over Essen’s candidate, Albert Au- tenreith, was clearly indicated by the re- turns in the hands of the County Court. The defeat of John Alt by William Buer- mann for County Court judgeship was another serious loss to the Essen forces. Essen s victories were mostly in cases where no doubt as to the result had been felt. He succeeded in “putting over’ Herman Hackman for Assessor, against {Sheriff John Grueninger Jr., Joseph C McAtee over Howard Butler for the Legislature in the First District, Wil- liam Elbring over Edgar Rapp for Sur- veyor, and Louis H. Bopp, an under- taker, over Dr. R. B. Denny for Cor- oner. Senator A. E. L. Gardner, Es- sen’s chief ally, won the renomination to the Senate over Buel L Matthews. A. H. Werremeyer will have to go on dispensing justice and marrying roman- tic young persons for another two years. He was supposed to be the Essen can- didate for constabl* of Central Town- ship, but Harry Wengler showed a ma- jerity of 157 votes, and Werremeyer is now composing a poem in which the words, ‘‘boss", and “‘double-cross”’ wil] be rhymed. The new county committee will be fa- vorable to Essen, and this iS taken as partly making up for his loss of the Sheriff and Prosecuting Att orney. Pros. ecutor Mills, who was unopposed fo3 renomination, is anti-Essen. TWO MEN FINED $500 FOR MEDICAL FRAUD Employes of Institute Which Made X-Ray Diagnosis Plead Guilty to Charges. John J. Weitzman and Dr. S. D. Nevel- ing were fined a total of $300 and costs, Wednesday afternoon, in Judge With- row’s court on charges of having ob- tained money by false pretenses through a medical concern, in the Fullerton Building, with which they were cdn- nected. Health Department officials investi- gating the ‘‘institute’’ found patients were paying enormous sums for “‘treat- ment,” after their aiiments had been diagnosed by means of fake X-ray ma- chines. Ascociated with Weitzman and Nevel- ing were Charles W. Minor, Walter A. Jasinski and Albert le Doulx. All were included in the prosecution, but when Weitzman pleaded guilty on three counts and Neveling on two, the charges against the others were dismissed. Cir- cult Attorney Jones said Weitzman and Neveling had promised not to engage in any similar schemes.

rT : MEN PICKED UP AS SUSPECTS Pocket Picking Reported After Arrest Is Made and Victim Identifies Bank Notes,
MEN IN ROGUES’ GALLERY
Bertillon Superintendent Con- gratulates Patrolmen on Jef- ferson Avenue Capture.
Three men were arrestéd at 8:30 a. m., Thursday, at Jefferson avenue and Olive street, on suspicion of being street car pickpockets, though no robbery had at that time been reported. An hour later William Miles of Union City, Tenn., re- ported that he had been robbed of $90 on @ Compton car, and his money, bank notes from the Third National Bank of his home town, was found in the ef- fects of two of the men. Patrolmen Curran and Bentley of the Laclede Avenue Station made the ar- rests. They noticed the uneasy, shift- ing appearance of the men, and judged them to be police characters. Curran remembered having seen them jumping on and off cars. At headquarters all three were recognized as police charac- ters, and were identified with the aid of Rogues’ Gallery pictures as Kid Foster of New York, Tom Wilson of Hoboken and Gus Meyer of Chicago. Curren and Bentley were compli- ted by Supt. Shea of the Bertillon Foreau on their’ catch, but it did not appear that lany charge would be placed against the men, until Miles appeared at 9:30, accompanied by William A. Beckham, another Tennesseean. “Somebody got my purse on a car be- tween Union Station and Broadway,” gaid Miles. “I might not know the fellow that got it, but I certainly would know the money. There were three twenties and three tens, all from the Third Na- tional in Union City, and the twenties had the name of the president of the Lank signed on them in red ink.” A look at the articles taken’ from Kid Foster and Tom Wilson showed the money, red ink signatures and all, and Miles was invited to look at the three -men. He said he recognized Foster as a man he had seen on the car plat- form. Others who recently have been robbed B street cars will be asked to inspect prisoners.

SMYTH INQUEST IS ADJOURNED TO FRIDAY Autopsy Physician Fails to At- tend—Cause of Fatal Brain Concussion Not Fixed. An inquest begun Thursday into the death of Michael F. Smyth, secretary of the Jefferson Club, who was found dead
_ Wednesday morning in the clubhouse ' @riveway, was adjourned to Friday be- Cause of the absence of the physician Who had performed the autopsy. The autopsy revealed that death had been caused by concussion of the brain. Whether the concussion was received in @ fall from a window or in some other manner was not determined. All that the inquiry developed was that Smyth disappeared after midnight. His hat was found in the clubhouse. Search was made for him, but he was mot found. Policemen found the dust on one of the window sills disturbed. President Edward P. Farrell of the club testified that Smyth had been drinking heavily and that a meeting of the Board of Directors was to have been held - Wednesday night, at which charges would have been preferred against him. CARNEGIE IN SPEECH FAVORS INCOME TAX
Tells Britons It Is Just Justice Alone Insures General : Contentment. ' NEW YORK, Aug. &—That Andrew Carnegie is. a firm believer in a grad- uated income tax is shown in a passage ~ from a speech made by him this week et Montrose, England. A cabied ab- stract of his address quotes him as fol- lows: “In one department the motherland is ahead of the Dominions and the United States. She has established the law, first proclaimed by Adam Smith, that every subject should contribute to the support of the Government in pro- portion to the income he enjoys under the protection of the state. “This just taxation the millionaires of the Dominions and the United States thus far have escaped, but their day ia coming. The hordes of millionaires whould be so treated, not as a punish- a ment, but for their good, because it its Just, and justice alone insures general contentment.”

Primarily the benefit of any tariff should be disclosed in the pay envelope of the laborer. We declare that no industry deserves protection which is unfair to labor, or which is operating in violation of Federal laws. We believe that the presumption is always in favor of the consuming pub- lig. We demand tariff revision because the present tariff is unjust to the people of the United States. Fair dealing to- ward the people requires an immediate downward. revision of those schedules where the duties are shown to be unjust or excessive. We pledge ourselves to the establish- ment of a nonpartisan scientific Tariff Commission, reporting both to the Pres- ident and to either branch of Congress, which shall report first as to the cost of production, efficiency of labor, cap- italization, industrial organization and efficiency, and the general competitive position in this country and abroad of

Treaty Rights. We pledge our party to protect the rights of American citizenship at home and abroad. No treaty should receive the sanction of our government which discriminates between American citizens because of birthplace, race or religion, or that does not reeognize “the abso- lute right of expatriation. The Immigrant. Through the establishment of indus- trial] standards we propose to secure to the able-bodied immigrant and to his native fellow workers a larger share of American opportunity. We denounce the fatal policy of in- difference and neglect which has left our ‘enormous immigrant population to become the prey of chance and cupidity.

= IMPEACHMENT OF HARRIMAN IS NOT ALLOWED AT TRIAL Court Sustains Darrow Lawyer, Who Then Tries in Vain to Question Witness. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 8.—Judge Hutton today sustained the objection of the defense to the question asked E. A. Cantrell yesterday tending to impeach Job Harriman in the bribery trial of Clarence S. Darrow. } The Court ruled that the question, which related to Harriman’s alleged con- nection with the Los Angeles Times dynamiters, purported to impeach Har- rim@n in a collateral matter and there- fore was improper. Notwithstanding the ruling, Rogers, chief counsel of the defense, on the ground that he had advertently an- swered the question in the affirmative yesterday, asked that the defense be permitted tO cross-examine Cantrell. Rogers withdrew the original objection, which had precipitated the long argu- ment, but District Attorney Fredericks met this move by withdrawing the ques- tion, leaving nothing before’ the Court, but a desire of the defense to cross-examine Cantrell. Judge Hutton ordered Cantrell excused. ee = EXCEPTIONS UPHELD IN STEPHENS CASE Master’s Report Virtually Re- versed in Fight for Possession of Land. Exceptions to the report of E. C. Chamberlin, Master in: Chancery in the fight waged by M. M. Stephens against the St. Louis heirs of the late W. S. Forman for possession of 23 acres of valuable land in Edgemont, were sustained Thursday by Judge Crow in the Circuit Court at Belleville. This virtually reverses the Master’s report. Stephens is a wealthy resident of East St. lJ.ouis, and formerly was Mayor of that city. Forman at one time rep- resented the Twenty-second Illinois District in Congress. He is supposed to have left a considerable fortune when he died several years ago. The Master’s report was filed in a par- tition suit. Stephens alleges that he gave Forman $2500 with which to buy a half-interest in the Edgemont tract and that the title to the land was vested in Forman and F. F. Espenchied. The claims Stephens made in a suit filed after Forman’s death were favored by Chamberlin. The Forman heirs filed ex- ceptions. DOCTOR WANTS HIS MARRIAGE ANNULLED Says He Discovered After Wed- ding That His Wife Was Not Sane. Dr. Warren P.. Elmer of 4448 Olive street brought suit in the Circuit Court Wednesday to have his marriage to Alice D. Elmer annulled. He charges that when he married her in April, 1919, at Fort Worth, Tex., she was not sane, though he did not discover this fact until three weeks after their marriage. Dr. Elmer says he had his wife ex- amined by specialists, who told him that her mind was unsound and that she was suffering from démentia. At June 1T, 1910, he had her placed in a sani- tarium at Flint, Mich. He says she has steadily grown worse and is incurably insane. He asks that the marriage be annulled on the ground that his wife
| was incapable of consenting to the mar- riage contract. MORTGAGE IS FILED FOR $200,000,000 Covers All Roling Stock and Other Physical Property of Iron Mountain Road. A $200,000,000 mortgage, secured by 40- year gold bonds bearing not more than € per cent, was filed in the office of the Recorder of Deeds Thursday by the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern Rail- road Co. The mortgage is to the Union Trust Co. of New York and B. F. Fd- vards as trustee for the bondholders. It is dated July 1, 1912, and the filing fee was about $100 It covers all the rolling stock and other physical proper- ty of the road. At the same time, a $25,000,000 mort- rage held by the Guaranty Trust Co. of New York, on an issue of improve- ment bonds, was released. “ROCKEFELLER” IS ERASED eee ee William Refuses to Allow Name on Bridge He Gave. TARRYTOWN, N.

The new bridge is nearing completion, and a bronze tablet with suitable in- scription was ordered a few days ago by the Committee on Arrangements. When Rockefeller learned what was on the tablet he became tndignant, and is- sued orders that his name be erased. LISTS 3 CO-RESPONDENTS

One Concern Gives Up $40,000 _ Monthly for Royalties, Which q | Public Must Pay.
‘7 ; ai tn an unpretentious four-story building . at Twenty-second and Pine streets, 50 ot the biggest shoe manufacturing con- cerns in the United States, producing > at least 60 per cent of the nation’s shoe ' output, have established an experiment _ étdtion for testing anti-trust machinery, with a view to breaking the grip of the Spormechinery monopoly. Operating as the Non-Royalty Shoe 0, the station, since June 1, has been @ turning out men’s welt shoes of all 4 styles and grades without the use of - eny trust machine, a pound of trust ; @® nails or a spool of trust wire. 4 The experiment has been so much of ' « success so far that 10 salesmen were started out Thursday to take orders for the ‘Non-Royalty Shoe Co. throughout the South and Central West. If their efforts bring the proper returns, the 60 hig companies composing the Shoe Man- | ufacturers’ Alliance, will throw out their “® trust machines and equip their factories ® with machinery from the independent _@ plants, according to W. F. McElroy, @ president and treasurer of the new con-
actual royalities and 2 or 2% cents in hidden royalties. The latter is a tribute exacted through forcing the shoe man- ufacturers to use thread, wire, nails and other supplies made by the United Shoe Machinery Co. We can buy such aup- plies in the open market for a half or a third of what we pay the United. “The concern does not sell its ma- chines, but leases them, with the under- cern. standing that independent machines are Old World Methods Studied. rot to be used in the same factory. If McElroy, who formerly was general}, manufacturer, for instance, uses a siperintendent of the Hamilton-Browr.

In order ' t familiar!z+ himself with the shoe ma- -chinery situation, he went to Europe and visited all the principal shoe ma- i; chinery plants. In many of these, espe- United pulling machine, he is required to use a United lasting machine, also. If he uses an independent lasting ma- chine, the United makes him pay royal- ties on the product of that machine, just the same. © “‘We have been able to find a satis- factory substitute for every one of the lily in England and Germany, he said ‘ Poe toon ree tat as good as any United's machines except the puller. Emiade in the United States. Some of| 7% Work of pulling in our factory now must be done by hand, but I am _ in- formed by good attorneys that the pat- ents on the United’s pulling machines will’ expire in about 18 months. Then the last great barrier will be down. “With the independent machines we can make men’s shoes for 65 or 6 cents less a pair than the same shoes would cost if made on trust machines.” Officers of Concern. F. Cc. Rand of St. Louis is secretarv of the Non-Royalty Shoe Co. Its vice- presidents are: E. J. Bliss, Boston; E. P. Reed, Rochester, N. Y.; C. H. Krip- pendorf, Cincinnati, and J. B. Howarth, Detroit. As an indication of how much the shoe manufacturers expect to save in case ef victory over the trust, McElrov says the International Shoe Co. of St. Louis pays a monthly tribute of about $40,000 to the United Shoe Machinery Co. This money, he says, must be counted into the cost of manufacturinz and come from the pockets of the con- summers. © the machines, however, could not be im- | ported because of possible infringements » cf patents, held by the United Shoe Ma- ; 4 ‘thinery Co., which shoe manufacturers > declare to be the most absolute and dom- P thant trust in the world. | Other good machines, McElroy ‘learned, are made in the United States, -one of the principal factories being in ' St. Louls.

As its work so far has been only the - making of samples, the new concern at § Present employs fewer than 100 shoe’ | ' Workers.

on wee MLE HAPPY THOUGH THEY ARE IN TOYLESS LAND Playthings Taken Away in Their Special Ward at the City Hospital.
> One ward in St. Louis took no interest in the primary election. Returns in- dicate that not a vote was cast in this ward for any candidate, the stated rea- son being that there is not-a qualified voter there. “ It is Ward K 30, recently set apart for the exclusive use of children at the city hospital. Supt. Smith is proud of K 30. He says there is no ward like it in any other public or private institu- tion in St. Louis. And it is soon to be still further improved. To make up for the loss of their toys, which were banished for sanitary rea- sons, the children within the next week will have’ a complete kindergarten out- fit with which to amuse themselves. All Comforts Provided. Every comfort and convenience is pro- vided in this new children’s ward. The room has southern, western and eastern exposure, 14 windows and a large screened porch for the children to play on. A sun room also will be added be- fore the snow flies. Some of the children were taken to the hospital as patients. Others were born there. In July there were 32 birth: at the hospital, five of the babies ar- riving between 9:15 p. m. July 29 and 8:55 a. m. July 30. There are now about 20 babies in ths ward, their ages ranging from 3 weeks to 5 years. Every scientific precnutinn is taken to restore or assure the health of. the children. Their food is prepared in a special dietary kitchen. Modified milk and barley water for the younger chil- dren are compounded under the direc- tion of scientists, each child's food be- ing adapted to its special needs. Babies Weighed Daily. Weighing the babies is part of the daily routine of the ward. Accurate schedules are kept to show whether they improve or retrograde on the diet provided. Some of the babies are gain- ing more than a pound a week under this scientific feeding system. When first put on the diet they all lose weight for two or three days. After that there is a steady gain in most cases. Before being taken into the ward each child is kept for, 86 hours in a detention room, where bacteriological examina- tions are made to find whether it has any contagious disease. Kindergarten tables and chairs have already been installed in the ward, and the older children are permitted to romp about at will They play ring games and sing. Reconciled to Loss of Toys. When the. kindergarten is complete there will be instructors to show the children how to play systematically as they do in the public school kinder- gartens. The children have become reconciled to the loss of their toys which were taken from them a week ago. The hos- pital physicians feared that dangerous germs might lurk in Teddy bears and dolls and that the.children’s habit of passing their toys from one to the other might spread infection.

John S. Lyle Wills Three-Fourths of Fortune to Woman He Married in 1910. By Leased Wire From the New York Buresa of the Pest- Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. &—Mrs. John Ss. Lyle, who until two years ag0.. Was Tulla Gertrude Hannon, 4 professiona) nurse, is in possession of an estate worth at least $3,000,000 by the probate in Hackensack of the will of her hus- band. She was married to Lyle Sept. 21, 1910, when she was 30 and he 92 years old. He died July 27 of this year. The will bore date of June 14. His signature shows he was then extremely weak. Fortune Is $4,000,000. Various personal cash bequests amount- ed to $200,000, and religious and charit- able gifts made a total of $425,000 in cash. The widow receives $500,000 out- right, the homestead of 40 acres, valued at $200,000, and the residuary estate, of which she is sole executrix. Lyle had made Tenafly his home since 1867, when he retired from active busi- ness as a partner in the dry goods firm of Lord & Taylor, to which risen from the position of errand boy. He came frvin Nova Scotia at the age of 14. Much of the success of the firm initiative. connection, for after nearly half a cen- tury the will directs that ‘‘Lord Taylor shall pay their indebtedness to me in sums of $25,000 a month, or in larger sums if they so desire.”’ First Wife Died in 1908. Lyle’s first wife died in 1908. Miss Han- non went to his home to attend a wom- an relative who had taken charge of the house and who became so ill that it was necessary to remove her to a sanitarium. Lyle persuaded the nurse to stay after tthe relative had gone. Through all his years he had kept a modest carriage and a pair of easy-go- ing nags for his driving. Now suddenly the stables were enlarged for a garage, in which he installed the latest styles of automobiles. The neighbors noticed that as he dashed over the country roads in the new vehicles with the nurse he straight- ened his shoulders, threw out his chest and looked many years younger than they had known him. Qne day the mo- tor trip extended to Yonkers and they were married.

I tnt ‘BALLOTING CAUSES $3,000,000 ESTATE! BUCK'S DEFEAT
Scratch Other Names, but Fail to Write In His as Commit- teemtan.
William. Buck of 3934 Russell avenue, president of the Monarch Construction Co., discovered Thursday the secret of his defeat for Democratic City Central Committeeman of the Thirteenth Ward in Tuesday’s primary election, although he got most of the votes. Buck was also one of the three candi- dates for the three legislative nomina- tions in the First District. Herman W. F'ay, who has been committeeman for several years, decided not to stand for re-election and induced Buck and Jesse Lukenbill to enter the race against each other to succeed him. The First legislative district is Re- publican by more than 8000. Fay trudged over the ward for several days trying to find some Democrat willing to stand for the slaughter, and finally in- duced Buck to consent to have his name printed on the ticket as one of the three candidates. He had no opposition, as no Democrat would care to make a fight for such an empty honor. Friends Are Puzzled. Buck’s friends worked hard for him for Central Committeeman, however. |\They were greatly puzzled when the election returns showed that he had re- ceived but 211 votes to 595 for Luken- bill. The secret of his defeat for Central Committeeman, however, was disclosed when the returns for the legislative candidates came in. These returns showed that Buck had received 362 more votes than the two other candidates for the Legislature. Buck’s total vote in the district was 5898,-and that for the two other candidates was 5536. Although it was printed over the names of the legislative candidates that three were to be voted for as nominees for Representative, the returns showed that 362 of Buck’s friends had scratched the names of his féllow-candidates for the Legislature, thinking they were thus voting for him for Central Committee- man. It was necessary to write the name of the candidate for Central Committee- man at the bottom of the ballot used by each voter, and this they failed to do. Had Cards Printed. Buck had cards printed directing the voters how to write his name on the ticket for Central Committee- man. One of his business friends met him Thursday and asked him this question, which opened Buck’s eyes to the secret of his defeat: “Why was it, Buck, that you went to the expense o* having those cards printed and. distributed directing voters* to write your name on the ticket for Central Committeeman? I found your name: printed on my bal- lot and I scratched off the names of your awe opponents,”

NURSE, 32, WIDOW |FRIENDS’ ERRORIN [Former Teacher Here Writes Campaign Song
Mrs. E. M. Robinson Now En- thusiastic Democratic Worker in Spokane, Wash.
Mrs. E. M. Robinson, who formerty was a teacher at the Jackson School and resided at 1378 Granville place until about & year ago, has become an enthusiastic} worker for the Democratic party tn the State of Washington, resides—and votes. She is one of the leading figures in the Woman’s Democratic Club of Spo- where she now ‘kane, her home city, and is the author of a campaign song which made a great hit, according to Spokane newspapers, when sung at a recent meeting of the club. The members liked the song so well that they adopted it and will sing it at all their meetings. The song is sung to the tune of ‘Marching Through Georgia.” Its stan- zas are as follows: We stand now as a unit On a platform that is sound! There’s reason in its doctrine. So just pass the word around That Teddy isn’t needed now, His place cannot be found. For all are working for Wilson. We stand for conservation, too. The watchword of the West. We want the streams and forests used As serves the people best. We fight our fight for principles That will not fail the test When they are backed up by Wilson. While a resident of St. Louis, Mrs. Robinson did not affiliate with the equal suffrage forces and was only mildly in- terested in politics, her friends in this city declare. The chance to vote, how- ever, under the new equal suffrage laws of Washington, aroused her interest in political questions. Mrs. Robinson believes that a woman can do her part toward bringing about better government without losing any of her womanly qualities. She is the mother of four children—two girls and twin boys—and her home is both well- appointed and well kept, her acquaint- ances say. She is a member of the Order of the .Eastern Star and the Daughters of the American Revolution. She is a daughter of the late Judge E. M. Vance. Her husband, who practiced law in St. Louis, is president of the Arcadia Orchards Co. of Spokane.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8—Young Mrs. John Jacob Astor’s only feeling, ac- cording to Dr. Edward B.

Special furniture for the nursery costing $10,000 has been installed. The curious persons who loiter about the house are making Mrs. Astor ner- vous about going out, says her physi- cian.

——— A GREAT SPEECH. | Woodrow Wilson’s speech of acceptance is the ablest, clearest, sanest statement of high public purpose this country has known in a generation. Without passion, without invective, without abuse, without partisan bitterness, without de- nunciation, without egotism, without demagogy, he has driven straight to the heart of the supreme issue of American institutions—the partnership between Government and Privilege. Every great conflict within the lifetime of the republic has hinged upon this one question. Every great reform marking a milestone in the political progress of the American people has forced the _ dissolution of such a partnership. 4 Federalism was destroyed under the leadership of Jefferson because federalism had become a partnership between the Government and a small class of property owners. The Democratic party swept into power under Jackson because the Government had entered into partnership with the United States Bank and its financial allies. - Under Lincoln the Republican party obliterated the partnership of Government and slave .owners in “the mightiest struggle and the most glorious victory as yet recorded in human annals.” It was the Gewvernment’s partnership with a shameless pltocracy which rehabilitated the _ Democratic party urider the leadership of Tilden. é ar Because of the Government's long partnership with Privilege under the McKinley, Roosevelt - and Taft administrations we are face to face h the old issue in a new form. Again we have what Gov. Wilson rightly describes as “An awak- - -qned nation impatient of partisan make-believe.” Of all the candidates for President, Woodrow Wilson alone meets this issue frankly and sin- cerely. .The Republican party under Mr. Taft still holds to its ancient partnership with the beneficiaries of extortionate tariffs. The Pro- Steasive party under Mr. Roosevelt frankly pur- poses to maintain a perpetual partnership be- tween the Governmént and the trusts. But the - Democratic party under Woodrow Wilson has set at ey, . * ~~ , ?.~* ‘ the average ‘wan Seasonable and | _ Were bought and _ of July, practical! - had really arrived _ obtained full awa _ if it is late tn the them up, and at t We are describing, .

By CLARENCE F. LLOYD Of the Post-Dispatch Sporting Staff. ee farther they go the fetter they get. That's S | ing carnival here. The senior events of the Southwestern Amateur Rowing _ © Association are up for the decision today and the best competition of the re- _ ‘gatta should be furnished, although the three preceding days have offered some - good sport. The four barge and eight-oared events should be closely contested, inasmuch gs the St. Louis oarsmen will have the Grand Rapids and Detroit crews to fight : against. These oarsmen from the North have already shown their caliber and it : will be no easy task for a St. Louis shell to finish in front in the foar-oared or | dght-oared race. | That the St. Louis oarsmen are not | quite up to the Class A caliber was ' @emonstrated in the open ; free-for-all | {our-oared race yesterday. This con- | test introduced for the first time this | week, the Winnipeg and Arundel oars- - men, the latter crew from Baltimore, and coached by Jim Rice, who had turned out innumerable good crews tor Columbia University in New York City. _ St. Louis Crews Outclassed, There were four starters, the Cana- diang from Winnipeg, the Arundels framg Baltimore, and the Westerns and Meend Citys from St. Louis. It proved a great contest. In fact, there were two contests in one, one for first place, between the Canadians and Marylanders, and the other for third . place between the Westerns and Mound Citys. | The Canucks rowed a splendid contest and beat their old-time rivals from the United States. It might have been even closer than a length and a half at the sh had the Arundels steered better. t they swerved from their course, losing considerable ground at times, while the Winnipegs pulled in excellent fashion, and rode an air line from start to finish. | ' As soon as the quarter mile buoys had been reached, the two St. Louis crews had dropped back. Their stroke ‘wasn’t nearly as perfect as that of the Canadians or the Baltimoreans. It sim- mered down to a pretty contest between the Westerns and Mound Citys, how- éver, with the former nosing out the Madison street four by about a quarter of a boat length. Barge Race Close. ® But this was not the only race fea- | tured by close finishes. The barge con- _ “test, in which St. Louis rowing clubs al- ways work up a lot of rivalry, also furnished a thriller at the finish. There ] Stiles, Thrown Out | Wins Row-Off | psHE single sculls proved easy for . # Lester Stiles, the Grand Rapids § crack, despite the fact that the -@ contestants had to row twice becanse of i + & foul committed by Hank Bieser, the aN gag City sculler, who was disquali-
_ Five lined up at the start. Stiles ‘@an't see the drop of Starter Dilg’s flag and lost about four strokes at the Deginning. He made up the distance in ‘SB quarter of a mile and had a lead of about five lengths over Martin of the Centrals and Bechestobill of the Cen- Bleser, in approaching the turn, ‘Bteered into Stiles’ water and collided ‘with his shell, knocking a piece from ‘he splash box. The race was then de- ‘@lared no contest by Umpire Frank Riefer and ordered rerowed, with Bieser out. : Easy for Stiles.

Jokers Induce Starter Hess to Re-enter Shell. PEORIA, IIl., Aug. & Fo zs7r HESS, the former single sculler of the Century Boat Club, and starter in the Central states racea, was the victim of jokers yesterday. He is named as substitute of the Century Club’s pair-oared shell, entered in today’s event. Hess has not pulled an oar for two years and is anything but a capable substitute. Al Bechestobill and Gus Goessling, the regulars in the pair-oared shells, decided it would provide a good laugh to tell Hess that he would have to pull today. Goessling then flashed a ‘“‘phoney’’ telegram, stating that he would have to return to §t. Louis immediately because of the illness of one of the members of his family. There was nothing for Hess to do but to unpack the shell with Bechestobill, and for a long time last night he was working like a beaver in an effort to get into condition on short notice. Needless to say he’s glad he won't have to per- form today. He’s walking with a lame back, however, as the result of his workout.
were seven starters, and a quarter of a mile from the finish it was anybody’s race, Coming closer the Centrals, Mound Citys, St. Louis Rowing Club and the North Ends pulled away. It was nip and tuck, but in the last half dozen strokes, the Centrals managed to cross the line first by a couple of feet, with the Mound Citys second. The St. Louis and North Ends crossed in that order,. with no more than six feet separating the bows of the boats. The Central No. 2 crew was fifth, the Westerns sixth and the South Sides of
Quincy seventh. by Collision, of Singles Handily preferring to bet their money next Satur- day. “ Lester Stiles of Grand Rapids, having won the junior race yesterday, is eligible to com- pete today against his teammate, J. Kort- lander. There are some of the Grand Rap- ids contingent here who belive that. Stiles is Kortlander’s superior. In the trials to select the oarsmen for this meet, Kort- lander proved a little speedier. the was Starter Dilg was delayed in races off on time yesterday. No provided for him until after 2 o’clock. At that he ran off seven races an hour earlier than Ernest Hess did the day before. —_ aunc Secretary Frank Fortemeyer of the Na- tional Assocfation arrived last night. The N. A. A. O. general meeting will probably be held tonight., If all the delegates are not here it will be stponed until day morn- ing. . The selection of new delegates ll be made Fridav evening.

Ac- cording to ancient prophecy, the final conflict between the powers of Good and of Evil is to be waged on the Judg- ment Day at “Har-Magedon.” This name has been corrupted into “Arma- geddon,” and is translated from the Hebrew by some authorities as “thee mountain district around Megiddo” (or Esdraelon), in Syria. Hundreds of fierce battles have been waged in the Esdraelon, or Armageddon, district of Palestine from the days of the olden Assyrians down to Napoleon's time. From long use the phrase “Arma- geddon” has come to be a symbol for any great battle or slaughter. And of late montha it has been appropriated for political uses,

_- — _ Mrs. Jarr learns the great lesson of diplomacy. 66 SUPPOSE this visit means _ you’re tryin’ to crab my daugh- ter marrying into your family?” asked La Superba’s mother, coming to the point. Mrs. Clara Mudridge-Smith paused, considering whether. she should plead or bully in her effort to save her ex- fiane® from the threatened mesalliance. But Mrs. Jarr, with rare intuition, rose to the emergency. ‘‘Why, not at all,”” she said quickly. ‘“‘We are anx- lous that the marriage take place, and the sooner the better.’’ “Huh,”’ replied the professional mother suspiciously. ‘‘You’re tryin’ to put something over on my child. I’ve been up again this propersition before. I've married in haste a few times my- self, and I want to tell you we ain't going to fall for any bunk. Our family is as refined as your family. ‘La Superba was fine educated and swell brung up, and she ain't going to get in Dutch marrying a boob without his family consent only to find he loses his cush if he does it, and as a fair young bride to awake upon her { wedding morn to find she’s double crossed and has a husband to support who can't even play the plano or paint a lantern slide, and so, at least, earn his cakes and be billed with her Firefly] Venus act as ‘La Superba and Com- pany.’ “IT wanta tell you right now—excuse me, I got a weak heart and this I’m takin’ is on doctor’s orders—that my daughter ain’t lookin’ for a husband to carry her grips and fight her for cigarette money. She'll marry a ltve one or she won’t marry at all. After follering Valeska Suratt on-the bill and never havin’ anybody walk out on her she don’t need to marry for love—simply to have a husband to support. : “Do you know who La Superba is? The Firefly Venus is the act that makes Fiva Tanguay jealous. Birdie’d be booked solid for 40 weeks in the big time if certain parties wasn’t afeered it would be ‘Good-by, John,’ for them!” “Oh, not at all! Not at all!” said Mrs. Jarr, seeing her ruse had worked. “You mistake us. The fact is that we are only friends of Mr. Silver. It was just a joke of this lady saying she was Mr. Silver’s sister. We are. really pleased he is to marry so gifted a young lady and settle down, and we've come to extend our congratulations.”’ “Now you're spreading the salve,” said the professional mother, upon whom the colorless remedy she was taking for a weak heart was having a genial effect. ““‘Well, dearies, can the bunk and let’s be friends!” “But there will be a wedding? You will do nothing to separate them?’ asked Mrs. Clara Mudridge-Smith, tak- ing her cue from Mrs. Jarr. ‘T’m on! I’m on!” replied the black alpaca mother. *Youse ladies have tipped yer mit. Them wedding bells shali not ring out!’’ Here she cackled with great enjoy- ment of her own astutement, and then @ sudden rancor overcame her. “I knowed he was up to somethin’!” she cried. “He never wanted me to be around, and when he was around he never slipped me nothin’.

His income will NOT be affected, no matter whom he marries. You can ask him.” It would seem that La Superba’s union mother had an affection of the eye as well as the heart. For thé eye opened and shut séme five or six times in rapid succession. “If he was the guy that put the cush in cushions,”’ said their winking host- ess, “‘there’d be nothing doing. La Superba ain't going to the expense of getting a divorce to get hergelf in bad again.’’ : “Oh, she has a husband?” asked Clara Mudridge-Smith. “She married for love a coupla times, and she ain’t going to do it no more,”’ was the reply. “But you'll do nothing rash?’ asked Mrs. Jarr. ‘Now that you have wised us, no,” replied the lady with the heart trouble. “But, jest the same, we ain’t going to can the party in question so kmg as he is liberal and refined.’’ 7 “You can tell him we called,” said Mrs. Jarr, rising with Mrs. Mudridge- Smith to depart. “And start somepin?” asked the pro- fessional mother. “And mebbe gittin’ Birdie to think it would be great press stuff to do a romantic runaway and mebbe get her booked at Hammerstein’s roof while the papers was full of it, only fer her to repent in the picter houses when the story blew up? Not much!” ““Well,”’ said Mrs. Jarr, complacent,y, as they were journeying home, “we've sundered two fond hearts this day!” “It was wonderful the way you man- aged it!’ said her friend. - “Yes,” said Mrs. Jarr. ‘““‘When in doubt, tell-the truth!’’ Fatal!

I see you are curious to find out how I happened to lose my arm.
