|, . FIRST IN EVERYTHING ————————— SET THE GOVERNMENT FREE.

On his trip West Gov. Wilson was frequently compelled to make brief speeches from the car platform. Here are several pithy sentences: . **My, Roosevelt puts forth an admirable platform - of what he would like to do for the people, but how is he going to do it? It is perfectly idle to talk of doing things when our hands are tied and your hands are tied for you so long as the men who now control the industry of the country con- tinue to control it. Now, we don’t want to disturb the industry of the country. We are not here to destroy the industry which these men have built up. But we are here to destroy the control over the industry of other people which these men have established and which makes it impossible that he should give ourselves a free field of sery- ice. , ‘*This Government can. be set free only by abol- | dshing every means that has been used to establish monopoly. I want the workingmen of this crowd to remember that the men who control prices do so by limiting in some cases the supply; that if you can limit the supply you can control the in- dustries of the country and you can also control th market for labor, and these men who con- stitute the leading instruments of the trusts are the very men who have fought and the only ones who have successfully fought the organized labor the United States. They have absolutely refused recognize the rights of labor to organize, and they have tried by patronizing the laborer to sub- ject him to their own will and purpose. ‘‘I am not here to attack the reputation and integrity“of purpose of any man, but the only way , you can tell whether a man can assist you in poli- ", thes or not is by finding out whether he is fol- “lowing the direction “in which freedom is to be discovered. These gentlemen have not found the direction, for they do not even propose the abo- ition of monopoly, and until monopoly is abol- ished, until it is destroyed, the Government is not . , free. And until the Government is free it cannot imerve you or any other man. - “We are trying to set the Government free ‘and until we do that we cannot do anything.” 74 + + - + rT er * J. Adam Bede's theory that the Ten Command- ments were not discovered until after 1904 may “explain why some of the contributions of that year were accepted by the Colonel, but is this important “dtscovery to have no effect on tairted contribu- , tons in 1912?

‘343 5 HELEN KELLER’S SOCIALISM. “The most interesting and significant article in any St. Louis Sunday newspaper was the inter- view with Helen Keller, the blind and deaf think- "tt in last Sunday's Post-Dispatch. ae must have startled thousands of readers to + discover that Helen Keller is a Socialist. But no *ome is surprised to find that the key to Miss ath Socialism is her intense human sympa- y. Like many thousands of sympathetic souls mo are not Socialists, Helen Keller finds that emédern conditions are intolerable. And she has additional cause for cendemning those condi- | tions, in ..e fact that, as a blind and deaf person, | ghe knows that much blindness and suffering is the outcome of unmerited poverty. sne defines poverty as a “facing the world and the vicissi- tudes of life unprepared. The want of proper equipment, scancy leisure and a shameful waste of precious capabilities. Being cut off from the “full benefits of education, science and medical as- @atance. . _,Miss Keller herself was, fortunateiy, enabled to “rise out of this condition of unpreparedness. Un- “ke hundreds of her fellows, she has been’ given - Advantages which have lifted her t» a position where she may fee] secure. Instead of abandoning those less fortunate, she feels it to be her duty to’do all in her power to help them. She thinks that, in politics a way ma, be found to accomplish this desirable object. * who is responsible for Miss Keller’s conclu- ti-ns and put forth no hand to ameliorate em? The beneficiaries of tariff laws which itinuously rob the masses for we enrichment w the few; the big gamblers who manipulate the ount "8 resources without regard to its people; he employers of labor who nave oppressed lab -r bh long .ours and low wages; the corpora... ich have sa orat ty ‘a0 about to debauch leg- ai LET BAD ENOUGH ALONE. “Let well enough alone” is the threadbare stand pat plea which the politicians in Mr. Taft's retinue are making on behalf of what they de- scribe as “the business of the country.” “Let well enough alone” runs the familiar ar- gument. “We are just on the eve of a great era 0’ prosperity. The crops are bountiful and all that business needs is a chance.” What chance, we ask, has business ever had with Mr. Taft? That is to say, the great, general, legitimate business of the country, and not the plethoric parasites of tariff privilege. Business has had ample experience with Mr. Taft and it has done nothing but complain. Busi- ness is still wrestling with the consequences of “My Policies’ —the policies to which Mr. Taft fell heir from his panic-making predecessor who in 1907 cried, “If business cannot stand my policies, then let business go to the wall!” Promptly after Col. Roosevelt uttered this epoch-making senti- ment at Keokuk five years ago a good dea) of business did go to the wall. A good deal of other business which barely survived has had its back to the wall fighting for sheer life. Business has not fully recovered because Mr. Taft has not allowed it to recover. He dared neither to give it a dose of medicine nor to let it alone. On the one hand his apparent uncertainty with respect to the tariff created conditions of fear; when he wavered business faltered, On the other hand, while he essentially stood pat on be- half of the system of tariff privilege and plunder, he has seemed always to be tottering. His tim- orous manner of defending the system only chal- lenged attention to its viciousness and vulnerabil- ity. Ceaseless agitation has been the result—a public clamor that would not and will not down. Mr. Taft tried to befriend the trusts, but while he stood pat for them he apologized for them. A shrewder friend of the trusts would hav2 con- ceded something to the people’s cry for revision. There would have been a show at least of revision downward instead of an actual revision upward in some respects. Mr. Taft’s pottering nag only ex- posed the whole system to attack. When he has shifted from stupid apology to the other extreme of defiance he has fairly flaunted the system’s in- famous menace in the public’s face. His Winona speech was the greatest challenge to tariff re- formers delivered within a gencration, in which he declared the recent upward revision by Payne and Aldrich “the best tariff ever enacted.” 4ll of the malaria is by no means out of the svstem of business—though it is assured that it ix “on the eve” of great prosperity. Why should it be still “on the eve,”’ always ‘‘on the eve,” under Mr. Taft? The patient has had ample time to re- cover fully and robustly, if the doctor had only dared to do his duty. Business has merely con- valesced under Dr. Taft and it has convalesced in spite of him instead of by his aid. Bumper crops can no more cure the fundamental ills of business than an extra feed of oats can cure a colicky mule. The real business, the great legitimate business of this country cemands a square deal and a fair chance. The substantial in- terests of the country ask to be defended against Privilege and Plunder. The prosperity of the people themselves is the only wholesome basis upon which the welfare of business may rest, and the people recognize a monopoly-breecding tariff as the greatest menace to real prosperity. The true business interests of the country welcome measures necessary to sunder the partnership of Government and Privy- ilege. The honest business interests of the country interpret the Taft party’s plea of “‘let well enough alone” to mean “Let bad enough alone.” ——— -—— —- ee —— With disallowance of the final disposition of the Cunningham coal claims in Alaska, a certain let- ter written by Mr. Taft three years ago last August makes queer reading. Li A. ~-waS Ss THE AMERICAN MOTOR CAR ‘‘PERII. ’’ The “reverse English’ was put on the Ameri- can protection argument at a luncheon tendered by Editor R. D. Blumenfeld of the London Ex- press to 20 British motor car manufacturers to talk over the disastrous effects of American com- petition. . This has been a subject of agitation in Lenéet for some time, but reached the acute stage with an announcement throwing British manufacturers into a panic, to the effect that Americans were about to put out a car that would sell in England for $250. Already unable to compete on $1000, $1500 and $1800, the British motor car men would face ruin with such an invasion. Motor cars are protected in this country by 45 per cent duty, but the industry has not yet had its efficiency impaired by dependence on debilitat- ing tariff coddling. It is the newest of gll large American industries and in its history, known to all, protection is so far seen at its best. What- ever aggistance the tariff may have been to it in its early days, it has been placed by American invention and energy in a position wheré it can compete with all the world. Why should protection to the extent of $450 be afforded a $1000 American car, when it can be shipped to England and sold cheaper than English manufacturers can produce it? ~~ » «=. i

Maybe Mr. Morgan's hope in excavating Hercu- laneum is to see if he can find any light on how the ancients unserembled eggs. he

A SCIENTIFIC SENSATION. Newspaper readers are about to make the ac- quaintance of the hormones, more or less learned articles will describe them, and the para- graphers will play with them. Prof. Edward Al- bert Schaefer of Edinburg University, president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, has introduced them to the notice of ordinary men. The scientists have been as- serting for a number of years that life can be pro- duced artificially Prof. Schaefer declares that by suitable proo- esses living substances can be produced from in- animate chemical mavter. To turn the trick, the presence of the substance called hormones is the essential requisite. They are largely found in the glands, and excite the cells to activity. Now, it is claimed, one of these hormones has béen

In all seriousness, it is scarcely necessary to point out that the important matter is the phys- ical principle at stake. If man can produce life, it will be argued that nature herself.was chemist enough to do so ages ago. The open-air schooi, which enables delicate children of tubercular tendency to obtain an edu cation while at the same time their physical con- dition is improved, has become a permanent part of the public school system of the country. There are now more than 200 such schools located in 50 cities and 19 states. Boston alone has 60 open- aif schools. St. Lous has one. -_——__oeoe——_-_— Points in British constituticnal law will be involved if Canada bars, under its immigration act, the visit of militant London suffragettes, but suffragette protests are not likely to get much sympathy from the wondon —. = = LETTERS FROM | THE PEOPLE Cardinal Gibbons’ : Seeman Views. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your issue of today I read an interview with

_|Cardinal Gibbons in which he expresses strong views against equal suffrage, and as a leading argument against it urges that if women had equal rights with men it would dispose them to rush more eagerly than ever to the divorce courts. His Eminence does not say why it would make them more solicitious about obtaining divorces, and we are left in the dark on that point. Does the privilege of voting make men more eager to seek divorce from their wives than if they could not vote? I cannot see why voting should promote an increased desire for legal separation, The Cardinal, continuing, speaks strongly against divorce in general fn this coun- try and says it is a blot and one of the greatest evils of the day. No one denies that an abuse of the divorce court is an evil, but I would sub- mit that the per capita morals in the United States, despite its divorce laws, are considerably higher than in countries of Europe, particularly Southern Europe where divorced persons are practically ostracized, Further, is a Cardinal or any member of an order apart from and outside of marriage, a thoroughly competent judge of what is most needed in the marriage state? Is not experience, the actual daily travail and cares, of any state necessary to the framing of rules to govern that state? We women of the twentieth century have taken to thinking and trying to work out what is better for our condition. Equal suffrage will not head us pell-mell to the divorce courts, but may enable us to correct many factors in daily life which will vastly reduce the necessity of recourse to divorce. If the marriage and divorce laws are to be made more strict or lenient, please let those who are married frame those laws and their modifications. NELLIE C. SAWYER, “A Suffragist.” Ce eee The Single Tax Amendnient. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Through the efforts of Senator Stone an@ ether representatives of the great privilege-seeking and land-speculating interests, the Democrats have gone on record as being opposed to amendment No. 6, the “single-tax” amendment. The Demo- cratic farmers of this State will repudiate this ac- tion of their party when they find out that the amendment, so condemned, would, # passed, lift all the taxation from their homes, barns, machinery, crops, fertility of soil—in fact, everything the farmer has except land values. The farmer does not own much land value. One block in the heart of St. Louis is more valuable than all the land in any one of 90 counties of this Stete. The Canadian farmers in Manitoba, Alberta and other Western provinces of Canada are almost unanimously in fa- vor of the system of taxation proposed for Mis- scuri in amendment No. 6. Shall we say that the Missouri farmer is not as wise as his Canadian brother? : An overwhelming majority of the people of St. Louis and other cities of this State will be in favor of this amendment. It will, if passed, not only un- tex their homes, personal property and store buildings and goods, thereby saving them money, but it will by freeing industry from the barden of taxation, bring to our cities thousands of indus- tries from other states, increase the population of St. Louis to over a million people, and adver- tise St. Louis to the ends of the earth as the largest, freest city in the world. ARTHUR M. CUSTER 5056 Wells avenue. American Consumer Is Robbed. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. HWigh-tariff experts sometimes tell us that high prices are caused by the demand exceeding the supply, Then, again, they gravely inform us that American industries supply more than the home market demands, and that this surplus output must be sold abroad, sold cheaper than at home, sold for little or no profit, in order that Amer- ican labor and capital may have steady employ- ment. Common sense tells us that the American people are made to pay two prices for everything thes buy, simply because they are good livers, good spenders, and will stand being robbed. Just, for instance, let us say that American flour sells for twice its rea] value at home and sells for its real value abroad. The American werkman buys a sack of flour. He pays for two sacke, but he gets only one. What then? The manufacturer has a sack of flour in his posses- sion that belongs to the American workman. It came easy, The manufacturer will not sell it over again to the workman. No; he is too honor- able. Money is no object; he has sucked that out of the American people. What he wants now is fame—fame abroad. The big-hearted manufac- turer becomes a philanthropist. He _ sells the American workman's sack of flour to the poor, dewntrodden workman of Europe at half price— ov its real value. The American workman has already paid cost and profit. What the manufac- turer gets, minus freight charges, is more profit. Could anything be more lovely? Think of it. The poor workman of Europe gets cheap flour, the benevolent manufacturer gets fame and royal applause, while the American workman pays the bill and gets a living if he works regularly and don't get sick. INDEPENDENT VOTER. Fur Industry. From Harper's Weekly. It is not generally known that the muskrat is the most important fur-bearing animal of North America. In one year sione (1910) 5,500,000 muskrat-skins were put upon the market, realiz- ing to the trappers a sum approximately $1,700,000, A large percentage of the muskrat catch is fur- nished by the tide-water region of Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey. In Dorchester Coun- ty. Maryland, the marshes are usually leased to the trapper for half the value of the catch. In that County some 260,000 skins are taken annually. Key to Society Page. From the Cleveland Leader. When the society reporter says, “the date of the marriage has not been definitely fixed,” that means the prospective bridegroom isn't earning wrener enough to support a wife.

Nogi and his wife so that they might accompany and protect their ing the past week than any other single topic. proves that Japan, after all, has but a thin is still stronger than the new. The concensus of opinion is that it veneer of civlization and that the old order However, the latest information from Tokio indicates that it was his distress at the growth of Western materialism and cupidity that drove the hero of Port Arthur to take his life. have his people in their grasp. He feared it and the democratic habits of thought it was developing soon would Hie counselled with his wife, and they determined to die while the country was mourning its great ruler as a rebuke to. the evil tendencies into which the land had fallen. That this dramatic act of self-immolation has aroused the old spirit in the country is beyond doubt. How long it. will last is another question. American writers believe, however, that Japan soon will come to see the loss of Nogi’s services to -his country is much greater than the resultant revivification of the theory that the individual is nothing but that the state—this is, the Emperor—is everything. What His Suicide Means. New York World: if the Duke of Wellington had killed himself upon the death of King Wil- liam of England in 1837; if the aged Von Moltke had slain himself on the day of the old German Emperor William's funeral: if Grant had sought his own death on the burial day of Abraham Lincoln, we should have had an incident only partially paralleling the act of Gen, Nogi, hero of Port Arthur, in committing suicide to honor his dead Kmperor. Had either of these three great war heroes done such a deed his nation would have assumed at once that he was deranged. In Japan all will know that Nogi did not act hastily or upon sudden impulse. The people will credit him with the fullest pos- session of all his faculties. They will find in Ceuntess Nogi, who willingly shared her lord’s Supreme act of sorrow and reverence, an ad- mirable pattern of the old-fashioned virtues for the wives of the land. Thin Veneer of Civilization. Philadeiphia Ledger: In the sharply contrast- ing attitudes of Japan and the Western Powers toward the mode of Nozgi's death it is seen how thin is the veneer of civilization upon the essen- tial paganism. It is the difference between the 20th century and medieval feudalism. In India the faithful wideéw still eludes the vigilance of the English ruler, if she can, and commits suttee— immolation on the funeral pyre—to prove the in- tensity of her devotion to her lord. Japanese hara-kiri and India suttee alike are relics of an elder day, whose crude and sometimes even brutal Siilpérstition ig dignified by a spirit of renuncia- tion that—even though misguided and misspent— is sometimes as austerely beautiful in its mani- festation as it is fanatical and futile. Japan Wanders From Old Faith. New York Sun: A Samurai and his wife killed themselves in the feudal way. and one of the greatest soldiers of modern times died like a Japanese warrior of the sixteenth century, true to traditions and an ancient faith which the new Japan no longer professes and cannot afford to sanction. In Bondage to Custom. Indianapolis News: Japan is still in bondage to this suicide tradition. General Nogi was a great soldier and a true patriot. By his own hand he inflicted a grievous loss on his country. A Challenge to the West. Philadelphia Enquirer: In dying, perhaps, he strove to prove to an arrogant Caucassian civili- zation that it had not pierced the skin of Japan- _ese life, that Japan had’ taken it and selected from it the elements useful for Japanese advance- ment, but had not adopted it as a substitute for the age-old civilization of Nippon. Virility, of Shintoism. Bosten Traveler: It is difficult for the occiden- tal mind .to comprehend the process of thought or the slavelike devotion to the Emperor that could lead a man admittedly as cultivated as was Gen. Nogi to the act of self-destruction. It is one of the contradictions of Japan. It is also another proof of the virility of the Shinto religious sys- tem, which defles the Emperor and makes hara- kiri a religious duty in the eyes of the Japanese. Rebuke to the Discontented. New York Evening Post: We must remember that the Mikado’s people are not the superhuman- ly loyal, tractable, self-devoted race that became a legend after their extraordinary achievements in the war against Russia. Since then we have learned that under a sufficient provocation they will behave very much like other people. When crops fail and taxes grow unbearable, they will riot. -When Cabinet Ministers displease them,’ even though these Ministers are «upposed to em- body the Emperor's will, they w.il have parlia- mentary protests and crises. There is a Socialist party in Japan, and there is an Anarchist move- ment, as was shown in the recent execution of more than a dozen conspirators against the life of the Emperor. Dig Gen.

EX-PRINCESS TELLS OWN STORY IN A GAY OPERETT A. Copyright, 1912, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) ROME, Sept. 21.—-Not even ‘a new drama by D’Annunzio or a play by Rostand could concen- trate such a fever of interest as that which awaits the premier performance—scheduled at first for Berlin, but the Kaiser is said to have declared that he would not tolerate it—of “Naughty Fran- cesca,” the joint work of Maestro Toselli, and his wife, the former Crown Princess of Saxony. It is not only that the royal lady persists from early girlhood in looking away from those of her quality of birth, that her career would have de- lighted Boccaccio’s pen, that William and other Kings and Princes wince at the idea of the dra- matic rendition of “Naughty Francesca,” but also that the Princess, who spurned the prospect of a throne of her own, has lampooned everything about European courts from the divine rights of kings to the mean gossip of valets and maids of the ladies and gentlemen in waking on the sover- eigns of the world as she came peculiarly to know them. The Prince and Princess, now merely “Mme. Toselli,” have been separated for many a month, but they have sunk all] their differences so far as to permit collaboration in literature and art—she in admiration for music, he in appreciation of her wit, satire and cleverness as displayed in the lib- So that, while they do not now speak, they will join In the rehearsal and presentation of “Naughty Francesca.” The former Saxony Crown Princess probably revels in this unique situation—as much as a press agent. She has loved the limelight. She has made scandalous sport of the traditions and etiquette of royalty. From girlhood she has never endured restraint. She eloped with Giron after, as wife and mother, she had seemingly settled into the position of a Princesg who would one day become a Queen. The plot of the operetta is based on court life and its blighting influence on matrimonial] happi- ness in a certain class of unions, The scene is laid in Spain in an undetermined period of history, when a certain king marries his three daughters te aspirants of different character and mental at- tainments. The eldest daughter, Francesca, who before her marriage has always been mild and submissive, gets a thorough milksop of a husband, and to the terror of the court turns out a devil in petticoats. She completely transforms her better- half and the couple make a revolution in court circles with their contempt of its restrictions and formalities. The second daughter marries an up-to-date youth, but as he is hidebound by court etiquette and ig just the opposite of her sister, the couple separate and he goes abroad. The third sister alone mates well, and she presents her husband, a crown prince, with eight children in ae many years. The King, to avoid the heavy charge on his subjects of the royal appenages for so many grandchildren, contrives to send his son-in-law away for a term of years, and various incidents of a serio-comic order are woven into the story until finally the three couples come together again and live happily ever after.

LONDON, Sept. 21.—Arthur Bourchier is to Stage another of those “thrillers,” which Paris 80 dearly loves and which prove drawing cards in London playhouses when not too long and fol- lowed by a bright act of vaudeville to relieve the strain. The name has not yet been decided. but it will be “The Seven Blind Men,” or “The Blind Terror,” and the naming will be left to Jcsae G. Levy, who is to adapt it for an English production. The scene is a workshop for the blind. Four of the blind workers who think they have a grievance decide to go on a strike, and intimate He argues with them, but in vain, and as the clock strikes 4 they pick up their tools to go. “If you leave,” says the manager, “you don't return,” They take no notice, and the manager declares that they must not leave with the tools, which belong to the firm. Knives are drawn, but the manager protects himself with a form, steps out of the workshop, and locks the door. The biind men, left alone on the top floor of the building, become afraid. The sound of a fire-alarm bell is heard in the distance. It grows louder and louder. The seven blind man fear that the place is on fire, and they ere eaged in the burning building. Their fear is increased when a sudden gust of wind slams the shutters of their workshop. The sound to them is the sound of falling debris. Then- one of them, overcome with fear. eries out that the flames are scorching him. A panic follows, until one by one the blind men, with the dread fear of the unknown on them, go mad. The “alarm” was given by @ passing ongine on its way to a fire in the neighborhood. The “horror’ is a thrilling Dlustration of the power of imagination.

LONDON, Sept. 21.—Fashtonable court society is still the place where one can hear the latest and most accurate news of the Foreign Office. attached to the households of the King and Queen have many opportunities of acquiring such information in advance of publication and often discuss it freely in their intimate circles. Thus tt is of political interest that the tnten- tion of retirement of Mr. Bryce at Washington has been @ constant theme of conversation of late, proving that it has been occupying much atten- tion from the powers that be. And the court un- derstands that a decision has recently been made to keep Mr. Bryce in Washington for some time to come. It is curious to hear that two women are re- sponsible for this decision of the cabinet, namely Mrs. Bryce, mi organizing an influential follow- ing in the cabinet to begin with and in attract- ing the personal interest of the Queen, and the Queen herself in letting it be known at the for- oign office that she particularly approves of Mrs. Bryce as a dignified exponent of those traits of feminine character and conduct which Queen Mary holds so dear. Mr. Bryce is accredited with no great desire for the ornamental duties of an ambassador and he has never tried to fortify himself against Intrigue, jealousy and misunderstandings by getting to- gether a faithful band of friends to tmterpret his factions in the Government councils during his ab- sence from the country. He has not even taken the trouble te appear in London before returning to his post at Washing- ton after his long journey to AustraHa, although he is supposed to be fully aware that there are several powerful persons at work to discredit him lover the Panama canal controversy, with the ul- timate object of displacing him at Washington. Mrs. Bryce, however, has not been idle, and it is due to her astute tactics that the Ambassador is not disturbed, Mrs. Bryce was a Manchester girl, and she in- herited a fortune which was amassed in plain. middle-class business. Mr. Bryce was a strug- gling young tutor at Oxford, with plenty of brains, but no money. His marriage brought him the financial political career in England. His grati- tude to his wife has been shown in a rare devo- tion, and the only thing he has denied her in his career is the refusing to maneuver for a seat in the House of Lords, which would of course place Mrs. Bryce above the necessities of diplomatic prestige. It is well known in diplomatic society the world ever that during King Edward’s reign the Euro- pean diplomatic service of England was regulated to fit the monarch’s’ personal tastes, especially in Paris. Sir Francis Bertie’s appointment was a joke, his acknowledged chief qualification being his ability to give King Edward a “good time” in the French capital. Queen Mary has always disapproved of him and of his wife, a sister of Lord Cowley, a defendant in more than one “eause celebre” of the divorce court. or Bryce Oignifies British Diplomacy. The appointment of Bryce to Washington did not interest King Edward one way or the other, as he had no intention of seeking an ambassa- dorial guide in American gayeties. cal departure on England’s part in sending to the United States a man who is without the slight- est pretensions to artistocratic connectiors, and. able as he is, who would, if measured by the pre- cedence of birth, have to yield the entree to ev- ery other British ambassador and nine-tenths of the boyish. young diplomatic secretaries. But the British diplomatic corps contained sc fmany of King Ed@ward’s boon Companions that Mrs. Bryce’s ambitious demands for her husband’s appointment met with astonishing success, even to the initiated. The Foreign Office eagerly wel- = comed a chance to add dignity and decorum to | its diplomatic service, and that is very largely the secret of this appointment.

LO GIS POST-DISPATC i New St. Louis Fair Promises to Be as Much of a Function as Was the Old One but Under Greatly ’Contrasted Conditions. 7 O you remember when St. Louis extended only as far as Grand avenue, with a few, oh, so few, houses scattered beyond? When the Olive street car line ended at Grand avenue, too? And every year there was a wonderful fair the first week of October, with wonderful exhibits of cattle, furniture, embroidery and things? with races—trotting and running —every afternoon? And the wagons that used to be at all the corners of Grand and Olive, decked with gay bunting, with chairs and boards for seats to take visitors to the grounds, because the little mule-motored cars could not meet the demands? How those drivers did scream the merits of their wagons like a lot of donkey boys, and how the stream of did keep up all day! There were wagons and carriages turnouts in the parade. Occasionally a brake or a would pass loaded with belles beaux going to luncheon at the Jock- ey Club or to see the races and dine there afterwards. Everybody went to do the exhibits in the forenoon, the races in the afternoon—trotting races in the amphitheater, running races On the track. The clubhousé grounds were always filled with beautifully dressed women. Between the grand stand and the club they promenaded back and forth. Every- body knew everybody else—and it wasn't so very many years ago. And now we are going to have an- other fair.

We are, therefore, particularly pleased to give herewith the prescription which an eminent scientist states he has found, after repeated tests, to. completely de- stroy the dandruff germ in from one to three applications. It wil] also almost immediately stop falling hair, and it has in numerous cases produced a new hair- growth after years of baldness.

SPRAINED THUME =/ AS SHE THWAGKED 0, HAMMERSTEIN Felice Lyne, Back in U. S., Says London Episode Was No Press Agent Story. By Leased W From the New York Bureau of r the P eeat-Diapatch, NEW YORK, Sept. 21.—The girl whose fair hand once thwacked Oscar Ham- merstein over the imperious head so hard that the impresario saw stars and heard the music of the spheres is here temporarily. She is Miss Felice Lyne, the Kansas City singer who carried Lon@on by storm and received the felici- tations of Queen Mary. Miss Lyne laughingly admitted that she was the star who slapped Hammer- stein on his unprotected pate so hard she sprained her thumb. “Yes, and he deserved it,” she said. “I was very much amused when Ham- merstein gave it out tha the story of my chastisement was merely a press- agent yarn. “It was far from being fiction. I was| very, very angry at Hammerstein, be- cause he had grossly inrulted me. So I hit him with the first thing handy, which happened to be a heavy score of || “Faust,” which we were rehearsing. Any lady would have done the same thing if she had been as provoked as I was.’’ The pretty little Missourian would not say just what it was that Ham- merstein had done to provoke her wrath, but stories printed about the’ incident at the time attributed her outburst to an effort which was said to have been made by the impersario to humiliate her before all the other stars in his company by giving the ‘Faust,” in which Miss Lyne had made a tre- mendous hit, to Mme. Berthe Caesar, 1a French prima donna. High’ words passed and then came the swift de- scending hand. Miss Lyne’s’ resentment against Oscar has not cooled a lttle bit. “Hammerstein is a dead duck in London,” she said. “All of his tall talk disgusted the English people. He cannot go back there. If he should try his former audiences would stone him out of the city.” RUNAWAY VICTIM AT 120

SCOTTISH RITE (ee CHOIR TO SING AT DEDICATION Organization of High Degree Masons Will Participate in Infirmary Ceremony. Australian Has Been Awake Since His Wife Died. SYDNEY, Sept. 21.—Albert ‘Herpin of Trenton, Western Australia, has not slept in 30 years, according to his own statement, which is corroborated by oth- ers. Soon after his wife died, more than 3) vears ago, he was attacked by this strange malady, and since then has passed his nights in a chair. He says he does not know what it is to even feel drowsy, and that he is wide awake at all hours.

The Scottish Rite choir, composed ex- clusively of Thirty-second and Thirty- third Degree Masons, will take part in the dedication exercises of the new Masonic Infirmary on Sept. 24. The choir, or Moolah Chanters, belongs to Scottish Rite Consistory No. 1. It numbers 24 and has been in ex- istence for more than eight years. Two of the members are Thirty-third Degree honorary Masons, three are knights commander of the Court of Honor and the others are Thirty-seaond Degree Masons. John A. Laird has been president of the choir since its organization, and is its baritone soloist. James T. Quarles has been director for five years. Beside Laird and Quarels the of- ficers are: V. H. Falkenhainer, vice- president; William H. Thompkins, treasurer; O, G. Mueller, secretary; Largest Mill Burns. ESTILL SPRINGS, Tenn., Sept. 21.— The plant of the, Tennessee Mill Co., the largest in the State, burned here, with a loss of $400,000. Engines were brought from neighboring cities, but the water supply was short and the firemen could not make any impression on the blaze. The mill had a capacity of 2200 barrels of flour a day and em- ployed 300 hands. ‘The insurance was $150,000.

GERTRUD VANDERBILT- COLUMBIA." > Great and Sincere New York Success Scored by ‘‘Mile- stones,’’ the Astonishing Eng- lish Play Whose Story Covers Three Generations of Human Life. By RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. MITE curious story of “Milestones,” T a play by Arnold Bennett, the English novelist, and Edward Knoblauch, whose ‘‘Kismet” has given him a distinguished place among con- temporaneous dramatists, covers a period of 60 years. It concerns itself with the fortunes of three generations. It is mainly a thesis on the theme of tadicalism versus conservatism in af- fairs of the business world. Yet, despite .. all these ordinarily fatal dramatic de- fects, the play repeated in New York this past week the sincere’ triumph which it scored in London last season. “Audacity! Audacity! Always au- dacity!’’ was the impetuous mastercry of the Great Napoleon, controlling his career and sounding. the keynote of his character. Justified by success in the Corsican’s own case, it seems now to validate the success of the Arnold Ben- nett-Edward Knoblauch defiance of the drama’s conyentions, It is of no im- port whatever, remembering the accom- plished fact of success, that all the rules of the dramatic game demanded failure for “Milestones” as the penalty for their violation. The play's first American audience at the Liberty Thea- ter in New York last Tuesday night put the stamp of its approval upon the work, precisely as London audiences ynad done, and, therefore, the story’s ‘halt a hundred years of action, together Wwith its exposition of commercial poli- icles, need no excusing against academic protest. When. the playgoing public speaks there's no going behind the returns, Methysaleh himself, with all his hine nturies of life, no matter how prosaic they may have been, will become a ‘“vell established stage figure whenever ahis public sees fit to give the word. * é Happily, however, there is nearly al- Nays @ good reason for its course when oe playgoing public likes a play which Fa the canons of dramatic art declare hould be disliked. & The good reason in the case of ‘‘Mile- tones’’ seems to be that it is an un- ‘bommonily human play, the people in h of its three generations being pe- liarly alive and true to their human- ty. The story's action begins in 1860, wthead & Sibley, English shipwrights, Jhave made their money building wooden we ships. But now the era of the iron ship as dawned, and John Rhead, the pro- |

The management has brought over from London, especially to play the part of the lad Tyltyl, the clever boy, Burford Hampden, whose quality is in- dicated by the fact that he was the Puck in Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree's famous production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ a season or so ago.
