Miller addressed Federal Judge A. B. Anderson. "Tf it pleases the court, the de- fendant Clark of Cincinnati wishes to change his plea from ‘not guilty’ to ‘gullty.’” Clark stepped forward. MDo you plead guilty?” asked Judge Anderson. "Tt plead guilty,” said Clark. The prisoner was separated from the other 45 defendants and taken to jail to await the imposing of his sentence. Clark pleaded guilty to all the charges—five counts of con- spiracy and 50 counts of being a state shipment of dynamite and ni- troglycerin. President of Local Vaion. Clark was business agent and president of Local Union 44 of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers from January, 1908, to July, 1911.

In connection with a scheme to blow up the Harrison avenue viaduct, Miller alleged Clark wrote to Ryan: “Tt would be dangerous for me to buy explosives down here. You had better send a stranger.

NOW EVEYBODY'S PETTING IT CORVZA Begins’ With a Big Sneeze and . Makes Noses Red and Eyes .. Tear-Filled. Have you got coryza? Sure you have. “Everybody's getting it,” or soon will be, according to the Health Department. You may think it is only a cold in the head that you have, but it isn't, it’s coryza. Dr. Martin C. Woodruff, head of the Department of Contagious Diseases of the city Health Department, told a Post- Dispatch reporter Monday all about the great sneeze. General coryza makes an attack at this time each year and is particularly vicious toward fair ladies in low cut dresses. He will be out in force for.a big time at the Coliseum Tuesday night while the Velled Phophet’s ball is in progress, the health officials predict. When the tip of your nose starts to blush like the cheek of a frost-kissed ap- ple, when your lips and the roof of your mouth begin to feel dry and hard and your eyes fill up with tears for no ap- parent reason, while your handkerchief does overtime on your nose—you've got coryza, or rather coryza has got you. Coryza comes every fall just’ when we think the time has arrived to change underwear. physicians, it doesnot come to all in ting at the open window.of a street car on a cool morning. Others ‘have al- ready made its acquaintance during the night by sticking their feet out from un- der the covers of the bed. But particu- larly, say the health physicians, does Coryza love to greet ladies in low-neck gowns just after they have danced. That is why the ybelieve coryza will be out in force at the Veiled Prophet's ball. ‘ But oéryza ‘is not an aristocrat. It goes every place, and the physicians say that the favorite haunt tn <i. Louis). is the Mill Creek Valley—any place 'where there ie belching forth thick black smoke. The smoke produces a carbonic gas, the physicians say, which-is the princi- pal article of diet for the soldiers of /coryza’s army. Physicians differ as to the exact idefitity of these soldiers, -but many of them think they are the bacilli discovered by Friedlender. The bacillus of Friedlander is a rod- like bacillus, always present in the air passages. When the carbonic acids pro- duced in the air by the smoke are in- qu h and then go to r 24 hours.

Enderle, president of the Enderle Drug Co., and Miss Madeline Van Winken of 4905 Forest Park baule- vard were married in Chicago Sept. 24, their friends have just learned. They returned to St. Louis two days efter the wedding, and have been living in Dr. Enderle’s home on Hanley road, in St. Louis County, but the news of the marriage did not get out until the last few days. The bride formerly made her home with her sister, Mrs. C. H. Snyder, at the Forest Park boulevard address. She was at the Northern Lake resorts during the latter part of the summer, and on her return was met in Chicago by Dr. Enderle. — PISTOL SHOT KILLS MAN PROWLING IN YARD Chester Pryor of Ilinois Said He Had Entered the Premises by Mistake. “YM DREADFULLY SORRY” Mrs. Delilah Mudd Fired to Scare Intruder—Becomes Reconciled With Husband. The bullet which Mrs. Delfah Mudd of 2126 Olive street said she fired merely to frighten a man who was prowling in the back yard of her home last Thurs- day night, caused the death at the city hospital Monday morning of Chester Pryor, 54 years old, of Lewiston, Ill. “I am dreadfully sorty,’’ said Mrs. Mudd when told of Pryor’s death, “but what else was I to do?” Just before his death Pryor told De- tective Bart Keaney that he had en- tered Mrs. Mudd’s yard, through a mis- take. The shoofing brought about a recon- Cillation between Mrs.. Mudd and her husband, Elzara Mudd, from whem she had been separated for two weeks. He visited her in jail after an information charging her with assault to kill had been issued and told her he would make an effort to obtain her release on bond. Held Till. After Inquest. After Pryor’s death it was decided that bond for Mrs. Mudd would not be ac- cepted until an inquest had been held, This is set for Tuesday. Whatever the finding of a Coroner’s jury may be, the case will be reviewed by the Circuit Attorney. If the evidence thows that Mrs. Mudd believed the man to be a prowler when she shot at him, she probably will be released, the police belleve, as was done in the recent case of Thomas Gerhart, who shot and killed 8 negro burglar who had invaded the Gerhart home. Mrs. Mudd, who is 2% years old, and her two children, John, 5 years old, and Samuel, 18 months old, ‘were alone in her 1i-room lodging house about 10 D. m last Thursday when she was startled by the.squeaking ef the alley gate. Bur- giars had tried on three occasions to enter the rooming house, she later told the police, and fearing for the safety of her children she armed herself with a revolver and went to the back porch She saw the forms of two persons and demanded to know what they were de- ing in her yard. They made no reply and then she ordered them to leave Receiving no response, she aimed at the shed and fired, she said, to frighten the intruders. They fled. A few minutes later Pryor staggered into a saloon at Nineteenth and Olive streets and said he was shot. He was sent to the hospital, where it was found he had a bullet wound in the abdomen. He said that as he was walking along Twenty-third street, between Pine and Olive streets, he heard a shot and felt

BUTCHER-BANKER FAILED, IN DEBT 10 FAMILY MEMBERS J. Phillip Hoffmann Borrowed $1000 From Wife and Some From His Son. HE APPEARS DEJECTED At Hearing Bankrupt Wears Worn Clothes and Betrays Extreme Nervousness. * J. Philip Hofmann, known as “the butcher-banker” of 2301 Howard street who has spent practically all of $66,000 entrusted to him by friends and neighbors, admitted Monday that his own son and wife are also among the debtors he can’t pay. He owes the son $200 which he bor- rowed from the young man’s savings on a salary of $15 a week, having traded in to the son a grocery at Pleasant and Penrose streets at $300 of a total $500 debt. Borrows $1000 From Wife. The debt of $1000 to the wife came about when Referee in Bankruptcy Coles asked ‘him about an arrangement to open a savings account at the Cass Avenue Bank, . “T had borrowed about $1000 from my wife,” he explained, “and thought of starting a savings account with $100 to pay her back. But I. never deposited any money toward this fund.” About 2% creditors, most of them wom- en, were in Coles’ office when the hear- ing was resumed. None of them spoke to the grocer, who sat with bowed head. Hoffman apparently wa suffering greatly from nervousness and his an- swers to questions came haltingly. Wears Weorn Clothing. He was wearing a worn pair of gray trousers, a worn black coat and a low collar in which was a worn tile. His hands trembled as he frequently stroked hic face with them. He said he had been in business here 28 years and that he began bor- rowing to build a house his second year. He said most of his finghcial troubles had followed his endorse- ment of $8000 worth of notes for a man. named. Buschart,.most of which he had to pay. He said he kept most of his books in his head. His ‘son, Philip Jr., did try to keep books for awhile, but gave it-up in June because accounts were g0 badly muddled. He put Philip in charge of the Pen- rose street store, he said, at a salary of $15 a week and rent free. When he found he owed the bay $500, back salary and money borrowed, he turned over the store in part payment. Checks aggregating $14,000 to the Cass Avenue Bank were shown him. He said that when he would renew ane of the Buschart notes he would pay $100 and give a note for the rest, but that to make the transactions regular, he would give his check for the full amount of the note, Hofmann’s liabilities are placed at $66,- 000 and his assets at. $3000, most of which, it is said, cannot be realized on. Several times as he talked Hofmann shook his head ia a dazed way. He was unable to explain what he had done with all the money he borrowed, x- cept that he feels In some way that in- terest and the appreciation in value of property in which he spéculated had eaten it up. Finally, referee Cole declared he couldn’t make head or tail of the case from the information at hand and di- rected Hofmann to prepare a list cf his investments as well as he could re- member them. Old Friend Tells Experience. One interruption showed even more than the unfriendly glances that che butcher’s creditors, who before (feit kindly toward him, have changed. YF. H. Rehmoeller, to whom Hofmann owes $3000, asked and obtained permission to make some remarks, “We are neighbors—and were good friends,”” he said. “These folks here and I patronized him for 2 years and this is what we get for it. I don't know where all this money has gone to. “Hie was getting $155 a month rent from those houses around there. I tried to keep track of those real estate spec- ulations he told me about, and I don’ t think he could have lost over $600 or 3700. I went to him about a year ago about my note and asked him if ne couldn’t pay it or some of it. He said he would, but was trying to put his son in business. I thought he was a good man, like everybody else did around there, so I told him all right, he could go ahead. He never told us the condition he was in.” At this Hofmann raised his hand ex- citedly and said: “May I say something against him?” “No, you can’t say anything against bim,” Cales replied with a smile; “you owe him $3000.” When Hofman left the office he went through a little room at the rear, canght the first car going down and walked hurriedly north on Fourth street. ‘The ceditos stood around in groups and sev- alias Claxton, surrendered to the Oak. band pean, ame Sontetene he, sto- the Australian Govern:

CHARLES: R.CRANE MEN MUST WORK TO-FEET DOWN 70 LAY FOUNDATIONS Quicksand on ‘Commonwealth Trust Site Makes Use of Caissons Necessary. Men will have to work under heavy air pressure and 70 feet below the level vi the street in putting down the tounaa- tions of the new structure on the Com-. monwealth Trust Co. site, at Olive street and Broadway. The necessity for the use of caissons in sinking the piers for this 29-story building, the tallest in St. Louis, just has been demonstrated by the excava- tion of what is known to contractors as a test hole.’’ Using the ordinary methods of digging, the James Stewart Contracting Co., which will construct: the building, has found that a layer of quicksand under- lies the upper strata of clay and gravel and that the piers cannot be put down. without using compressed air. The excavation for the foundation has been delayed pending the arrival of the caisson equipment in St. Louis and only a few men are being employed to cart away the top dressing of clay. It was reported the first hole sunk for a foundation pier had been “‘lost.” This, in contractors’ parlance, means the dig- ging was interfered with by a sudden inrush of quicksand, which made it nec- essary to abandon the excavation. L. A. Meyer, purchasing agent for the Stewart compahy, said Monday the re- port that the first hole had been lost was not technically correct. -“Tt was merely a test hole,” he said. “We carried it down until we struck quicksand, and then abandoned it. The test gonfirmed our previous belief that

Trouble has again arisen over the tangled affairs of Mrs. Sabina Born- feld Herck, 19 years old, whose flight from home a year ago, followed by her marriage, two attempts to end her life and:a second disappearance, have kept her family and friends in a state of agi- tation. A $50 reward, offered last month for the finding of the girl, is the subject of a suit filed in Justice Krueger's court Monday by Leo R. Greenwood, a private detective, who says he found the young woman in Springfield, Il., Sept. 21. : Before he undertook the search, Greenwood says, he required the moth- er, Mrs. Betty Bornfeld, proprietor of a restaurant at 917 Locust street, to deposit the $50 reward with a third per- son. The third person, it is stated, was Frank Lind, a Seventh street grocer. Lind is said to have refused to pay the money, saying Mrs. Bornfeld had not told him to. Mrs. Bornfeld denies that the arrangement was as Green- wood says, but Lind says he understood it about as the detective did, and that e ; tas a >t \ 2 ' ; ;. = é — — ae el jTRAL FOR HS LF | COURT IS JANIED | | wusband and Six Other Al SOLEIL — — — ——— — BECKER ON Mrs. ‘Becker in Room When leged Slayers Enter. — — —— Oct. 7.—Charles Becker, formerly in command as Lieutenant of a “strong-arm equad” of the New York Police Department, was placed in trial for his life this afternoon on an indict- ment charging him with the murder of the gambler, Herman Rosenthal. The first talesman examined, Philip Herr- lich, was challenged peremptorily by the prosecution because he formerly had been a policeman. : Much of the seseion had been taken up with the selection of the extraordinary grand jury which will hear all the phases of the Rosenthal case. Becker and the six men indicted with him were brought into court, District Attorney Whitman moved that the trial of Beck- er proceed separately. His motion was granted, Mrs. Becker was in court when the procéedings opened. The room was jammed to suffocation and a great crowd surged through the corridors. John F. McIntyre, Becker’s counsel, early In the day asked Justice Goff to adjourn the hearing because of the ill- ness of John W. Hart, associate coun- sel. Justice Goff denied the motion, and then proceeded with the selection of the grand jury. Fifty of those sum- moned for service: having failed to ap- pear, the grand jury panel was ex- hausted after 21 of the 28 required had been selected. Ju8tice Goff said this number was sufficient, and after swear- ing in the jurors, dismissed them for two weeks. Almost without exception the jurors are well-known business men, including Jesse I.

The killing of “Big Jack” Zelig Saturday night was a blow to the prosecution. Rigid inquiry has Gisclosed nothing to indicate that Zelig was slain to defeat the ends of justice. Davidson, the slayer, appears to have been actuated only by the desire for revenge on the man, who, he ‘says, robbed him. Through Zelig, the State hoped to prove that his gang men, re- tained by “Bald Jack”’ Rose, shot Ro- senthal at Becker’s bidding. KOBUSCH FILES COUNTER CLAIM AGAINST BANK Says Oil Stock Worth $50,900 Was Bought In for — $500. ) George J. Kobusch, in an answer ani counter claim filed in Judge Taylor’s court, Monday, to the suit of the Brad- dock National Bank of Pittsburg against him, alleges that 509 shares of stock of the Federal Oi] and Gas Co., which he had pledged as security on a note was offered for sale by the Braddock company and bought in by it, for $59), when it was worth $650,900. The suit of the Braddock company alleged that Kobusch had executed a note for ‘$23,328.80 to W. L. Mellon of the Mellon National Bank of Pittsbure, secured by the 509 shares of stock. Mel- lon transferred the note and stock to the Braddock bank, which sold it May 1 for $600. After deducting the expenses of the sale, Kobusch was credited with $447.50 and suit was brought against him for the balance alleged to be due, $22,- 931.84. Kobusch alleges that “the stock was bought in by Walter D. Guthrie, an at- torney, for the company. He asserts that the advertisement of the sale was indefinite and insufficient and that the sale was illegal. He asks that the sale be set aside and that he be given judg- ment for the difference between thy amount that he owes on the note and the amount that the stock is found o be worth.

he will turn over the $50 either to Green- wood or Mrs. Bornfeld,*as the court may. direct him. Sabina Bornfeld first ran away Nov. 4, 1911, taking money and jewelry be- longing to her mother. The mother esti- mated the loss at $1500, and instituted a search which resulted in the finding of the girl in Hot Springs.

Alfred Davis -of Alton Says Mrs. Voorhees Once Threatened Him With Gun and H- Promised to Stay Off Place if She Wouldn’t Kill Him. | SHE DENIES STORY, ' CALLING IT A JOKE Man Tells of Being Helpless in Wood for Hours and of Crawling to Creek, Guard- ed by His Dog. ‘ Alfred Davis, 2% years old, of Alton, _ who was mysteriously shot from am- bush on the farm of Mrs. Ella M. Cul- ver — Sunday morning, was in a critical tion Monday at &t. Jos- gophi’s Hospital in Alton. His case is: considered so serious that doctors are afraid to attempt an oper- ation to remove many shot from his right side and back. Assistant Prose- cuting Attorney Wilson Monday got from him a formal ante-mortem state- ment. Davis told a Post-Dispatch reporter a graphic story of the attack and his hours of suffering. He was so weak that at times his voice sank to a mere whigper, but his narrative ran along coherently. "Tl didn't know I was on Mrs. Voor- hees’ farm,”’ he said. “I had no idea of going upon it, for about a year ago Mrs. Voorhees exacted a promise from me not to come there again. ; Quarreled Over Dog. “T had quarreled with her that time over a dog and had gone to her place to get the dog. .She pointed a shotgun at me and said she was going to kill me. ‘ “IT fell on my knees before her and begged for my life. She finally said 4 ¥ ; a 5 * — — — - ise never to come on her farm again. I promised: But the place is a big one and I didn’t know the boundaries, . or I wouldn’t have been there Sunday. “T had no warning before the shooting and was so dazed when the first charge hit me that I never saw who fired it. I was out gathering walnuts and was stooping when the first shot came. It appeared to have been fired by some- body hiding behind a bush. “T straightened up and screarhed that I had been hit. Then the second load came and I fell. It must have been about 10‘o’clock and I lay there stunned for I don't know how long. “| realized that I might @® there in the woods and nobody be near enough to help me, so I tried to crawl te the railroad embankment about 300 yards away. T could scarcely move, for my right arm and leg Were useless. Suffered From Thirst, “Fever came up and I suffered agonies from thirst. I could only gét along a foot or two at a time. I picked weeds and grass and sucked them for the 4 — moisture. After a long while I got to 4 a creek near the railroad tracks. I crawled down into it and drank. “Then I tried to make my way up the bank towards the tracks. But it was > too much forwe. I lay in a clump of \ _ weeds and tried to think what to do.

The first message received in St. Louis from Dr. R. B. H. Gradwohl to his wife since he strangely left his lucrative practice and departed more than a month ago, has not served to clear the mystery of his disappearance. Mrs. Adolph Lederer of 5024 Vernon avenue, mother of Mrs. Gradwohl, said ‘Monday that her daughter, who is at the Lederer home, was too ill to make a statement about the message from her husband. | “I can tell you,” said Mrs, Lederer, “that the message was an extremely brief cablegram. It said that Dr. Grad- wohl was in Paris and asked that his wife write him a letter. Nothing of Explanation. ia “It has been eroneously stated that Dr. Gradwohl in this message promised to write a letter of expla- nation to his wife and that he asked about her health. .§ He did neither. There was nothing to indicate that he intended to explain his absence.” Friends 6f Dr. Gradwohl who learned of the cablegram said they were unable to tell from it whether Dr. Gradwohl is now aware that his absence has been the subject of much comment and that his wife has said that he showed lack of consideration for her in going away without tell- ing her of his intention. So far as could be learned no othér member of his family has received @ message from him since he sailed from Baltimore about Aug. 25. Brother Does Not Cable Him. er announcing several days ago that he would send a cablegram to the doctor, and advise him to return at once, said he had chaaged his mind, and would write a letter instead. He said the last he heard of the doctor he was in a tewn in Germany. Jacob Gradwohl, another brother, said Monday he had received no word from Dr. Gradwohl, and that.so far as he had learned the cablegram to the wife was the only communication which‘ had come — him since his departure. iil A: tulhakl thine atrebiiedll. he. and — Parrar were married.

She is also remembered for a row she had with a neighbor, George Lohr, over one of her horses which had strayed. Lohr demanded pay for feed h@ had giv- em the horse and she refused to pay it.

Robert Greer, 4 years charged with selling cocaine. The men arrested with him were his roomate, Rictfard Jones, 40 years old; James T. Dineen, 40, who says he has no home, and Joseph Lefebre, 37, of M11 North Seventh street. Greer and Lefebre are lame. Lefebre is held as a witness on Cole’s statement to Patrolman O’Con- nell that Lefebre purchased the drug for bim from Greer. The police say Cole represented him- self as an assistant to A. H. Lawrence, -a special investigator for the Board of Health. Cole told a Post-Dispatch re- porter he represented the Health De- partment and had been engaged in a crusade against St. Louis cocaine sellers since last January. Used as “Stool Pigeon.” “That is untrue, so far as I am con- cerned,” said Lawrence to the reporter. “T used Cole once as a ‘stool pigeon’ to help make ar arrest in*°a cocaine den, but I have gtven him no authority to represent me or the board any fur- ther.”’ : Cole had in his possession an eighth of an ounce of cocaine in a bottle, about a dozen morphine tablets, four little cardboard boxes containing cocaine and four hypodermic syringes for injecting rubcotaneous doses of a morphine so- lution. All the articles, he said, were taken at Greer’s room. “T have to take this stuff all the old, was | time while I’m working on these cases,”’ said Cole, as he opened one of ‘the little boxes ‘and snuffed a genersus portion of cocaine. “It’s great for the imagination and it enables me to get right in among the cocaine sellers and users. They know down at Greer’s place that-I was working for the Health Department, so I had to send Lefebre to get the stuff for me.” Lawrence said he would find Cole, take the “evidence” away from him and make it plain to him that he has no right to represent himself as an attache of the Board of Health. At Lawrence’s request the police la- ter released Greer, Jones, Dinneen and Lefebre. “IT did not authorize Cole to bring about the arrest of these men,” said Lawrence, “‘and I do not care tq present the case for prosecution on Cole’s evi- cence.”’ Wabash Road Makes Plans for V.

With State Chairman McClung and County Chair- man Shotwell, Major left Democratic headquarters at 9 a. m, to drive through virtually all of the towns and subdi- visions in the county.

Judge Nortoni is scheduled for a speech Monday aight before the Amert- can Institute of Electrical Engineers at the Missouri Athletic Club. HOW NATURE CURES CONSTIPATION And Why Drugs Are Being Used Less and Less for That Purpose. . The custom of Internal Bathing for keeping the intestines pure, ‘clean and free from poisonous matter, curing con- atipation, biliousness and the more seri- ous diseases which they bring on, has become so universally popular and so scientifically correct in its application as to merit the most serious consideration.

Bryan’s Hat Proves Too Big for Wilson _ NLINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 7. OV. WILSON lost his hat in the auditorium here, and sent Walter Measday, his secretary, to search for St. “Perhaps you left it in the ring, Governor,” remarked Dudley Field Malone. “Here.” said Bryan, “if my shoes fit you, may hat should.” ’ Then the Nebraskan put his big slouch hat down over the ears of the presidentia] nominee. “No, no,” said*the Governor, as he glanced at Bryan’s bald spot, ‘you are more likely to catch cold than I am.” “Then,” said Bryan, “how will this do?” He pulled from his pock- et’a traveling cap, and placed it on the Governor's head. Wilson's hat was recovered later.

No sleight of hand performer ever performed more mysterious tricks with his hands than protectionists have per- formed with words. But the reign of deception has reached an end. The jug- gling and the jugglers have been ex- posed, and an indignant people are gird- ing themselves for a great task. They are preparing to take the Government out of the hands of those who have used it, as a private asset In business; they are ready to restore control of the “fovernment to the people to whom the Government belongs. Wilson Worthy to Lead, Our tariff laws are no longer to be written by the few who have been the beneficiaries of protection, but by the many who have been the victims of high tariff rates, and, with the driving of the exploiters and their lobbyists from the halls of Congress, the country will have a new birth of political freedom. Patriot- ism will again become an unselfish sen- timent: and not a sordid and calculating desire for pecuniary profit. Gov. Wilson has shown himself to be worthy to lead the great fight for lower tariffs. In his discussion of the sub- ject he has taken the side of the people as against those who have been prey- ing upon them and he has given con- clusive proof of his earnestness in his opposition to the nomination of ex-Sen- ator Smith, who, when in the Senafs two decades ago, was instrumental i preventing the reduction of the tariff which the people then’demanded. The people need as President a man with in- telligence enough to understand public questions—and Gov. Wilson possesses that intelligence. The people need more than intelligence in the White House; they need a man whose sympathies are with the whole people rather than with a few of the people—and Gov. Wilson has shown that his sympathies are on the side of the people. But what the people need most in the White House is a4 man who has the courage to take the people’s side in spite of the) tremen- dous pressure that the special interests can bring to bear upon a President— special interests which have ‘coerced both Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt into submission to their will. Gov. Wilson has proven the possession of the moral courage necessary in a President.

Heir to $50,000 — Traced by Stained Uniform and Fol- lowed by Bloodhounds. QUINCY, m. Oct. 7.—Ray Pran- schmidt was today arrested for murder in connection with the Pfanschmidt gquadruple murder case. The formal charge is that of the murder of Blanche Pfanschmidt, sister of the accused young man. The prisoner is 23 years of age. On the morning of Sept. 29:the bodies of Charles A. Pfansechmidt, Mrs. Ma- thilda Pfanschmidt, their daughter, Blanch, and Emma Kaempen, were found in the burning ruins of the Pfan- schmidt home, 12 miles soutHeast of Quincy. The condition of the bodies Lroved conclusively that the four per- sons had been murdered and had not burned to death. Suspicion at once fell on Ray Pfan- schmidt, the only surviving. member of the family. e Pfanschmidts were well insured of the estate is estimat- ed at $50,000. Bespite the fact that de- tectives from all parts of the country came to investigate the crime, nv ar- rests were made last week. State’s At- torney Gilmer insisted that not enough evidence existed to arrest Pfanschmidt or any other person. Today unusual evidence was discov- ered in an accidental manner. J. L. Frese, who lives north of Quincy, near the railroad canstruction camp where Ray Pfanschmidt was employed, was making improvements on his place. He moved into a shed and under it he dis- covered a stained khaki uniform. Pfan- schmidt has generally worn such a uni- form. The bloodhounds last Monday followed Pfanschmidt’s buggy from the scene of the murder to the camp. Cin this evidence the young man was today taken into custody. :

If so, exp J x s wit Step Your_ can be commanded, condemn the tariff system as it now exists and outline the tariff system as it should be, while the Republicans not only refuse'to discuss the Democratic position as it really is, but they even refuse to discuss the present tariff situation. Both Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt cling to the protective system, and the language which they employ is the same that has been employed by the defend- «rs of that system for half a genera- tion. When the protective system was first established it was defended on the the- ory that it was a national necessity; that we shculd encourage infant indus- tries until they got upon their: feet, or until they had time to demonstrate their ability to maintain themselves. It was admitted in the early days by the most ardent champions of the system that the protection should not be continued if, after a sufficient trial, it was found that the industry could not, when es- tablished, maintain itself in the face of open competition with the world. This was protection when it was first introduced, and when its original appeal was made to the patriotism of the coun- try. But that was long ago, and we hear nothing more of that kind of pro- tection or protection based upon that theory. Before the war the fallacy of protective arguments was shown up, and the system was overthrown. The reyenue tariff . adopted in the ’4s worked so well that thé firat Repub- ican national platform—the platform of 1856—never mentioned protection as @ matter worthy of consideration, and the renewal of a high tariff in 1961 was advocated, not upon the theory of pro- tection, but on the ground that more revenue Was necessary to carry on the war. The laboring man was tnformed that his Wage Was promptly increased by a protective tariff and that this increase should be accurately computea by him and should be accepted as a liquidated sum given him in return for his support of the Republican ticket. Manufacturing communities were as- sured that they had a pecuniary interest in the election of Republican Presidents, Congressmen and Senators. In fact, the | country Was put upon .a commercial basis and each voter was tagged with a card plainly showing the exact price for which he sold his vote to the Re- publican party.

More than 15,000 persons will hear Gov. Woodrow Wilson's Speech in the Coli- seum Wednesday night, according to forecasts issued by the Democratic or- ganizations in charge of arrangements Monday. Hundreds of visitors from every county in the eastern half of the State are expected, while the Demo- cratic ward comimtteemer said a great majority of the Democratic voters of their wards were eager to get to the Coliseum in time to hear the speech. The problem of handling the crowd is worrying the arrangements committees. Secretary O’Donnell of the Democratic City Committee said that fully 20,000 men who march in the torchlight parade will not get to the Coliseum in time to get seats in the hall. The marchers will pass into the Coliseum and then march out again. The overflow meetings will be addressed by Democratic State candi- dates, and by Speaker Champ Clark, while Gov. Wilson is delivering his speech inside. Some to Ride Horseback. The marching clubs will form on Twelfth street, and on Jefferson avenue north and south of the Coliseum. Big delegations of marchers from St. Louis County and East St. Louls will come in on horseback, all carrying torchlights. National Committeeman ‘Goltra placed orders with eyery torchlight factory in the country to get an adequate supply. He ordered 16,000 torches, but the de- mand for them has been so great he cut down the City Committee’s allotment from, 12,000 to 10,000. There will ‘be no reserved seats at the Coliseum. The box seats have been allotted to persons who. contributed $10 ‘to’ the fund to defray the expenses: at the Coliseum. The party workers said the Coliseum probably would be filled by 7"p. m. and that those who went later would have to take their chances on getting in. . Goltra will leave St. Louis at 7:4 a. m.

instant coming out of the skin of his: creation. Burns is merely @ human “derelict’’ of the non-criminal class. He is quite happy, in his somewhat vague and dazed manner, to wander through life ragged and virtually nameless, with a sort of childiike delight in his daily quest of the scrapheaps of London’s bankment completing the round of his cleck. All he asks is te be “let alone” to re- main in his own cless. “Leave me be!” he ¢eries, almost fiercely, to those who have disturbed the even tenor of his way. - “You've put the barber on me!"’—they had just caused him to be woefully shaven and shorn. “You've taken Iberties with me! It's an out- fage, that’s wot it is!” And, somehow, thanks te Mr. Hd- garde’s lifelike playing of the part, one is made to feel that Samuel Burns un- questionably has rights which should be respected. It all comes about by reason of Peter Waverton premitting his valet to in- terest him itn the Piccadily “passers- by” seen from his chamber window through the drab of a London fog. Sam- tiel Burns is among these passers-by; 80, too, is “Nighty,”’ a finely philosogh- ical old “‘horse cabman” whom thé new- fangled taxis are beggaring by painful degrees, and Peter Waverton has both of them brought to,his apartments and entertains them with a whimsical ap- preciation of their human values. It happens, as well, that a former governess who is the mother of his child, born out of wedlock, is driven within his doorway by the choking fog. Here, with a happy ending, you have Peter Waverton’s romance, quainily dramati4é, terminating his search for the ‘only woman he had ever loved and at the same time, breaking his engage- ment to a “brick” of a girl whe bowed her head to the superior claim of the pretty governess, laughingly making the best of an eleewise unhappy situation. .. Always, however, save for one or two Jintensely emotional moments toward the play’s close, Derelict Burns and i“*Nighty,” the old cabman, who himself flluminates Burns’ significance by some exceedingly clear-sighted comments on the shortcomings of human society, hold ‘the center of: the. stage. And when it so comes about that Samuel Burns, losing all patience under the restraint of a mistaken kindness, kidnaps the little son of Peter Waver-~ ton and the governess, taking him for a day: of rabbit-snaring in the country

It delights ane from start to consistent. 4 finish. “WHIRL OF SOCIETY” AT SHUBERT A hapby family of comedians present- ed “The Whirl of Society” to a large audience Sunday night at the Shubert and sent them away humming the catchy airs of the incidental music. The success of the Winter Garden company, which comes to St. Louis aft- er protracted runs in New York and Chicago and a detour to Kansas City, Seems to lie chiefly in the fun the per- formers themselves get out of the per- formance. Miss Ada Lewis makes fun of her Stage husband, Clarence Harvey, in lines the playwright did not write. Al Jolson, in his black-face role, calls his employer “Clarence,” not his stage hame, but the name his mother gave him. When the players have occasion to speak to the orchestra leader, Cas- slus Freeborn, he is addressed as “Cas- Sius” and altogether the members of the company seem to be on the best of terms with each other, a spirit quickly Caught by the audience. The company gets on intimatd terms with the audience by a novelty which takes them from the stage down the center of the theater on a walk which ls built om.the level of the seats and extends from footlights to foyer. Over this the newly-rich Mrs. Deane (Ada Lewis) brings the company ip from the foyer to take part in ‘the #0- clety minstrel show she has arranged for her guests. When this feature is over ‘the performers march from the stage back to the foyer and around the side of the house to their dressing rooms, the procession béing {lluminated In passing by rose colored lights on either side of the walk-which suffuse the lingerie of the attractive women of the company with that delicate tint and afforas the audience an opportunity to gee the performers at short range. Melville Ellis rejoined the company yesterday afternoon in the piano mono- logue role which he created. The good fellowship of the company was shown in a cordial reception given him by his associates when he appeared in the second act. Al Jolson is given much of the isin and his scene with the Barl of Paw- tucket (Lawrence d'Orsay) is deélight- fully funny. Jolson not only took part in the parade through the audience, but walked down.among them again and stood in thé aisle to sing a song. “The vocal honors were easily won by the Courtney sisters, Fay, and Florence, with the “Sumurup Girl.” Fanny Brice, as the German servant girl and later as “endman” in the minstrel show, pre- sented a quaint and distinctively indi- vidual quality of coméay.

“‘Winehelt Smith, in “The Only Son,” which opened the Century seasoh of 191-18 Gunday evening, has put into dra- matic form a strong preachment against the gacrifice of the home for the selfish life. Its chief character is an only ‘son who is pampered by a doting mother and @ too-indulgent father. Wine, wom- en and gaming claim’ all of his. time. The r is one, whose success in business as made him forgetful of home, fe and all except financial af- fairs, The neglected vege and mother band, son is the strained situation devel- in the earliest stages of the play, aud ‘from it develops a story in which the'playwright seems to have put more than the present players develop.

There could be Mttle comedy in a son’s cefense of his mother; nothing short of tragedy could be expected. But this edy, and each gripping situation is. bro- ken by la ter. ' The effect of the comedy and the ten- dency toward a happy ending, makes of “The Only Son,” just a pleasing drama for the multitude, without any especial From its first act melodrama, but unlike “The Fortune Hunter,” the author's other successful drama, its happy ending is the most unhappy thing of the play. . Thomas W. Ross is a happy character as the pampered son of the early stages of the drama, and changes but little as the play progresses and his fortunes change. Lizzie Hudson Collier gave a consistent portrayal of the mother, stay- ‘ng well within the limited confines of the part. Katherine La Salle was excel- lent as the lovely and lovable Anne Les- ter, who was an inspiration for the son’s reformation. Campbell Gollan’s stern- ness as the father seemed a trifle stiff and artificial, but*unlike the ethers he improved as the play progressed. Tem- perance Reld as the sister was a charm- ing social butterfly. Wallace Wille- combe was the lord somebody who caught the butterfly... The minor char- acters were satisfyingly played. GORDON 8. SERVANT. —e_ GERMAN THEATER SEASON OPENS The opening of the German Theater Co.’s season at the Odeon, Sunday night, was notable because of the in- troduction to St. Louis of three new players who are expected to increase greatly the strength of the organiza- tion. Marie Erwin and Adolf Stoye, whv will play the “straight”. feminine and

bow to an Odeon audience, ar was Schonthan and Kadelburg’s four- act comedy, (‘Love's Lottery’’). It was not @ fortunate selection fo- such a) warm evening, and everybody wished. something, a bit gayer and live. lier had been given Fraulein Erwin’s voice has not yet been ranged to the necessities, of its big, new field, ae those who sat at some distance from the stage had some difficulty in understanding her lines. But she more than satisfied in the sartorial sense. She has style and dash and wears her clothes like a fashion plate. Herr Stoye had a role with few exacting demand... but his clever acting foreshadowed .« brilliant season for him, Frank Holt- haus was most happily cast and his playing was greeted with appreciation. Among the old favorites, who were ap- plauded joyously on their reappearance, were Louise Pellmann, Clara Gefrec, Olga von Bodenhausen, Christian Sch.- ber, Gustav Hilmer, Gustav Haussig, Willy Scholier and Alfred Gefre. Herr Hans Loebel, director, delivered an introductory address just before the rise of the curtain, in which he con- gratulated the audience on the ap- proaching completion of the new ‘Ger- man Theater building, which will-be ov cupied about Jan. 1. He pleaded for the united support of the large German element in the city and warned his hearers not to ‘be content merely -with the erection of the building, but to con- tinue to show their interest by attend- ing the performances, else the history of the passing of the old German Theater on Fourteenth street to English uses would be repeated. Herr Loebel was not in Sunday. night's ‘cast, but he will be seen next Sunday evening in the principal character part in Treptow ard Steffans’ musical comedy, ‘“Der Wasser Doktor” (“The Water Doctor’).

The international balloon race is the chief aerostatic event of the year. When the aerial classic was started in 1909 from Berlin, a balloon: manned by A, tiolland Forbes and Augustus Post burst at a height of 1000 feet. The Basket plunged through a roof, but the Ameri- cans were uninjured. At the same race a balloon piloted by another American dropped into the North Sea, but the crew Was rescued. When the event was last held in St. Louis, in 1910, Alan R. Hawley and Augustus Post set a rec- ord in contests for the cup by a flight to Canada. Honeywell was winner of the elimina- tion race in Kansas City this summer. Watts made the second longest flight.

Aithough he has not said “out loud’ bimself, it is pretty well established that he is 69 years old. The best records say he was born at Greenfield, Ind., Oct. 7, 1853. But in the minds amd hearts of everybody, Mr. Riley is a young man, and in his case years do not count. The poet’s birthday was celebrated generally by the 350,000 throughout In- Giana and there were also Riley exhib- its in several of the public libraries. It is Riley week at Greenfield, his birth- place, and he will go. there himself Wednesday to acknowledge the greet- ings of his former fellow-townsmen. From his pleasant. old-fashioned study room in his fine old dwelling in Lockerbie street, MY. Riley made the following acknowledgement to the children who are remembering him: “To the School Children Generally “It may be well for you to remem- ber that the day you are about to celebrate the birthday of many g00d men, but if I may be counted the’ least of these, I will be utterly con- tent. and happy. I can only thank you and your teachers with a full heart and the fervent hope that thé day will prove an equal glory to us all. “To the very little children: “I would say, be simply your own selves, and though even parents, as I sometimes think, do not seem to understand us perfectly, we will he patient with them and love them no less loyally and very tenderly. “Most truly your hale friend and comrade. “JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY.”

ADAY GUTS LIVING COST, SAYS EAPERT Buyer for Hotels Asserts They Must Charge More, but Fam- ilies Can Simplify Diet. | FOOD IS UP 25 PER CENT Using Flank Instead of Porter- house Will Cut Household Expenses, He Declares. John D. Tellman, expert buyer of food, stated to a Post-Dispatch reporter Mon- day his conclusions on the high cost of living problem for St. Louis house- wives, which, he said, is substantially ‘the same as the problem which hotels ij have to solve. Tellman is chief purchaser of food for the Jefferson and the Planters hotels, As told in Sunday's Post-Dispatch, those hotels. have lately increased the prices of beeksteak and chicken: 25 per cent to diners in their cafes. These increases, he etated,. were forced by the increased cost of meat to the hotels. Hotel guests must have what they or- der, #0 there is nothing for the hotels to do, Tellman says, but to pay more end charge more. But with ‘families, he declared, the problem is different.

Meat Only Once a Da “Take the item of chicken,’’ "he said. ‘Five years ago we paid from 13 to 14 cents a pound for chicken. Now we pay 24 cents. Bacon used to te 19 cents a pound. Now it is 29 cents. Ham has gone up 10 per cent. Five years ago we thonght 21 cents a pound for butter was a good price. Now we pay 3 cents. Eggs have increased from 21 to 22 cents a dozen to 29 cents. Of course, they will be higher later in the year. At one time last winter we paid 55 cents a dozen for eggs. “With the exception of canned goods and green vegetables, practically every- thing served at a hotel table or in a home has increased from 20 to 35 -per cent in the past five years. Some canned goods have also increased, but very few. “However, it is not vegetables or canned goods which increases the cost of food bills. It is meat. A few years ago nearly every American family had meat three times a day. Most of them keep it up, and it is driving many homes into bankruptcy. The Wage éarn- er cannot afford meat three times a day. He does not need it. It does not increase his health or strength, and if he will understand that he will be as strong and healthy by eating meat once a day, and cereals and vegetables the other meals, he will soon discover that his cost of living is reduced about % per cent.

STREET AN HOUR “DEAD” M AN (IV Revived by Heroic Treatment Day After Suffering Electric Shock and Broken Skull. By Assdciated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 7.—An hour's heroic treatment brought back signs of life here today into the body of Bert Edgar, an electrician, after he had been pronounced dead from a shock of 2200 volts of electricity. Besides the shock, Ldgar was suffering from a. fractured skull, received when the electricity threw him from a platform 15 feet above the cement floor of the basement of a downtown office building. Hé has & good chance to recover, it was said at the emergency hospital: The accident happened yesterday, and a physician in the building Edgar dead. ' Herman Krecgmayer and Adam Baker, ambulance attendants, de- cided that the cessation of heart action was due to the shock and might be rp- stored. Baker and a patrolman. ran Wdgar’s apparently lifeless body up and down the street, With the feet touching the pavement, while Krecsmayer struck him about the chest and shoulders, and all three shouted continuously into his ears. After an hour of nearly continuous treatment of this sort, interruptions be- ing caused by well-meaning passersby who thought Edgar was being beaten/ up, Edgar showed signs of life and was rushed to the hospital.

— ⸗ LINCOLN’S REMARKABLE GATHERING. The amazing developments marking the earlier part of the presidential year no doubt have given an anti-climax effect to the post*convention period and account for the current feeling that the campaign lacks ginger. That an absence of intémse, vital interest is not to be inferred is shown -by the striking series of gatherings dur- ing Gov. Wilson’s Western trip, reaching a cli- max at Lincoln, Neb. The honors paid to Gov. Wilson and Mr. Bryan on their meeting at the “ latter’s bome formed a demonstration remarkable for this or any other campaign. That the partici- pants should have numbered 125,000 in a town of only 45,000 inhabitants is significant of the two leaders’ hold on the popular affection and of in- terest in the Democratic cause. Rich as .Mr. Bryan’s previous experience had been in great outpourings of the voters, it is said to have. in- cluded nothing as extraordinary. ‘With favorable weather, Gov. Wilson’s coming, to St. Louls Wednesday promises to become the occasion of a gathering fully as extraordinary. i i i ie 2 le “Mr. What‘s-hie-name. that highwayman from South St. Louis,” has replied to Col.

_ WHEN UNCLE SAM BUYS SCALES. ‘Uncle Sam is about to publish advertisements | asian tenders on 60,000 or more scales, as a part of the equipment needed for the parcels post. It is sald that when the new service is in full work- ing order, not less than 70,000 scales will be needed. What would Uncle Sam do if he found that the lowest bid perpetuated the scale-makers’ practice of charging more for their goods at home than abroad? For one common type of American-made scales much used by retail] men and others, the foreigner pays only $6.16, but the home purchaser has to pay $7.20. A 45 per cent duty explains the 17 per cent graft. Wheb Uncle Sam himself beco consumer and contracts for things Panama strip and elsewhere, he has at times shown himeelf exceedingly impatient and resentful over extortion on the part of the beneficiaries of tariff monopoly.

He is a graduate of Wa- basi College, the St. Louis Law Schoo! and a member of the St. Louis Bar Association. His rise in his chosen profession has been rapid, his ability as.a lawyer recognized, and the esteem in which the people of: St. Louis hold him was unmistakably shown by the tremendous vote that was cast for him in 1910, which resulted in his election to his present office.

Even this was resisted by the Pro- gressives and the courts say thaf under Gov.

It.is that after all the centuries of Christianity and at this stage of civilization there are so many educated men and women who in order to gratify thelr speed-mania are ‘ready to maim and kill their fellow. crea- tures. Even if there was no law giving to foot pas- sengers the right of way on crossings, once they are on the crossing, a proper sense of justice should ‘recognize this right, but the automobile owners evidently defy both law and justice and take advantage of might over right and then calmly say “the accident was unavoidable” and the victim “stepped right in front of the ma- chine.” The machine is never said to have run right over the victim. ‘This never happens.

EXPLAINS THAT IT GOT PAID. From the Springfield’ Mo.) : Republican. As was expected at the.time, the reproduction in these columns Tuesday morning of this week of an article taken from the. St. Louls Republic of the Suhday previous, in which an earnest plea was made for the re-election of Mr. Taft, has thrown the latter sheet into a towering rage. All the same, the moré the Republic has to say about the matter the more inexcusable its party perfidy for double-dealing in mildly advocating on its editorial page the: election of the Democratic presidential.candidate, while elsewhere in the Same issue pleading with persuasive facts and ar- guments for the election, of the Republican candi- date appear to be. To,advocate the election of the presidential standard bearer of the opposition party because it docs not aprove of the presiden- tial standardebearer of its own party, for. personal or othér reasons, is bad enough for a straight-out party newspaper, but to confess that it was done for pay is the limit. The Republic’s explanation of how it happened te be drawn into pleading the cause of Mr. Taft simply makes its present plight all the more pitt- able. Commenting on our exposition of its facing- both-ways attitude, the Republic says that “the statement in question is not even taken from the Republic. It comes from the Repub- lic’s Sunday Magazine, .a.. publication which we issue from an Hastern press jointly. with 11 other daily papers.” The Republic etplains that the article which we reproduced to its so great embarrassment was printed at thé instance and by the authority of thé Republican National Commit- tee. It then goes on to make this startling con- fession: “As a matter of fact, the Republic aid not know of the committee's purchase of space from the Eastern advertising representatives of the As- sociated Sunday Magaziries until the issues: con- taining the advertisement “were already off the press.” So, according to its own statement, the Republic does not know what it is going to say until after it has said it.

GOVERNMENT BY BLACKMAIL, From the New. York. World. ; According | to the sworn testimony: of Geo: R. Sheldon, who, succeeded:..Cor- nellus N. Bliss as treasurer of the Re- publican National. Committee, 7344 per cant of the contributions. to. Mr. Roose- velt's campaign fund in 1904 were made by corporations. Thése corporations were. all subject to investigation, control , or prosecution by the Roosevelt administration. -Some of them were industrial . corporations by Mr. Roosevelt's Bureau of. Corpora- tions. Some of them were railroad cor- porations under the regulation aad. con- trol of Mr. Roosevelt’s.Interstate Com- merce Commission. Some of them.were combinations in restraint of trade lable tu civil and, criminal prosecution under Roosevelt's Attoreny-General. Mr. Roosevelt was managing his own campaign for President. of his national committee, appointed by Mr. Roosevelt personally,. was Geo. B. Cortelyou, who had once been - Mr. Roosevelt's secretary and was Secre- tary of .Commerce and Labor in Mr. Roosevelt's cabinet, this. being the de- partment charged. with the duty of mak- ing ‘ “diligent investigation” into the secret affairs of the great corporations. Mr. Roosevelt was more than a can- Gidate for President; -he.was already President, with the power of life and death over hundreds of millions of dol- lars of Wall stréét capital. His activi- ties In the campaign extended even to euch matters as the Republican State ticket in New-York, in relation to which he. repeatedly invited Harriman to the» White. House. Naturally, the very astute gentlemen in Wall street knew what this all meant. It meant that. they were expected to contribute handsomely to the Roosevelt campaign fond and Mr. Roosevelt was not dis- appointed, . $100,000. Mr. Morgan gave $150,000. Mr. Frick of. the Steel Trust gave $100,000 and offered to make good any Standard Oll money that was returned... Mr. Gould gave $100,000. Mr. Harriman raised $20,- 000 after his visit to the White House in the closing days of the campaign. This was the $260,000 which, according to Mr. | Harriman, York City alone, “making a difference The great life insurance companies which wasted a Federal insurance law (a law.that Mr.. Roosevelt recommended to Congress) gave $150,000 of their policy holders’ money, and other great inter- ests were equally generous. Mr. Roose- vel insisted in his rambling testimony . yesterday that these contributions hought no favor and that no favor was implied by their acceptance. “Then why dia he order the Standard Ol contribu-. tion returned? Why does he insist that! he ordered the Tobacco Trust* contribu- Oll money and co Harriman money be accepted for:Mr. Taft?

He received me sullenly. “I suppose I've got to pay you for this,” he said, “but this branch of the Smith family is going to the dogs, and the more ancestors it has the more ashamed: of itself it ought to be.

He inimediately or- dered me out of the house. His cup of trouble seemed overfull. But the last week in January a new worry came to him. He recetved a let- ter from Grandma Smith in New Hamp- shire. The penmanship was cramped and uncertain becauSe Grandma Smith had written the letter in the open air with woolen mittens on her hands. “My Gear son,” it said, “I am in good health, but nervous. That old jacka- napes Wilmot still sits on the other side of the fence with his cow in hand. I am worried about something else. About the first of this month an un- couth man with black hair and brown pants came to this neighborhood, and every day he hides behind a tree across the road and shoots. I have no idea what he fs shooting at, but he ts a reckless shocter. Several times a bullet has come into my yard. I am worrléd. He shoots ali day, and the noise annoys me. I believe he is insane.”’ The*next day another letter ar- rived. My Dear Son—I am becoming nerv- ous over the actions of the crazy man with the gun. Today he climbed over the fence into my yard and hid be- hind an apple tree, and he has been shooting all day. At 8 o’cleck this afternoon he shot that old jacka- napes Wilmot’s cow. I hoped then that he had shot what he had come to shoot, but no; he is still shooting. Can he be shooting at something in my yard? The next day there was no letter, but the day after that there was one. My Dear Son—I am packing my trunk tonight and I shall start for Westcote tomorrow. I cannot stand this crazy man any longer. He is on my nerves. At 11 o’clock thig morn- ing that old jackanapes Wilmot was shot in the leg and was taken away to the hospital, but not before he said he would buy my farm if I would call the man with the gun.

When Edgar Smith handed me this letter his face was bright and smil- ing. : “Now,” he said, “our troubles are at an end.

Theatrical Salaries Have Raised With Cost of Living

AVID WARFIELD began as an D usher in California theaters. Eleven years ago he was paid $75 a week at Keith’s Union Square Theater. Today he would refuse 6 times as much. The four Cohans—who included the effervescent George, his sister Josephine and their father and mother—are said to have been glad to revel in the bene- fits which a salary of $150 a week af- fords as recently as 1902. Today George alone could obtain 20 times as much, while Josephine has repeatedly been paid 10 times as much. Rose Stahl, who is now a shining light in the best theaters, a very few years ago took a sketch, from which her play, “The Chorus Lady,” was evolved, and was giad to try it out at Proctor’s, a vaudeville theater, without any com- ‘pensation whatever. | These changes are demonstrated in every phase of the stage. Eva Tanguay peveral years ago was content to re- ceive one-tenth of the $2500 which she finds in her pay envelope at the end of every week, while Gertrude Hoffmann, who last year signed a contract by which she was to obtain $105,000 for 30 weeks in the vaudeville theaters, was vnable to induce @ manager to pay her $150 a week five years ago. Annette Kellermatn, known as the beautiful diver, was ‘discovered’ by B. F. Keith. He signed her up for a long term at & comparatively low figure. Mr. Keith has accorded te Miss Keller- | mann an honorarium far in excess of that which his contract stipulates. Rg i

ously been unknown to fame. These were Frances Starr, Dorothy Donnelly, Laura Hope Crews and Alice Johnson. The combined salaries of the four while at this theater did not amount to $250 a week, and the largest portion of this amount was paid to Miss Johnson. Today Miss Starr is a David Belasco “star.”’ Miss Donnelly has scored a sensation hit in ‘‘Madame X” and other plays. Miss Crews was the distinguishing feature at the successful comedy, ‘“‘Her Husband's Wife.” Nothing New.

AVOID DANGERS OF CHANGING SEASONS

I? you would add ten years to your life fol- low the advice. Written for the Post-Dispatch By J. A. HUSIK. M. D. — — — — EARLY, during the period when the changes of seasons occur, there are many persons who fall ill altogether need@lessly, by rea- son of sheer neglect to take proper care of themselves. Formerly it was believed that the periods of the year when winter changes into spring and summer and again when summer turns into fall and winter contained within themselves a certain mysterious something which was responsible for all the ills of man- kind. But wé know better now, It is well known that the atmospheric | changes which occur in the spring and autumn cannot by themselves bring on disease: It is the sudden change in the habits of living that is chiefly responsi- ble for the coincidence of ill health. ‘ Take the fall, for instance, when the eee

summer is changing into winter. Dur- ing. the summer people are habitually out of doors as much as possible. They wear light clothing and engage in @ great variety é¢ outdoor exercises. As & rule people eat more moderately in the summer than in the winter. Now, as soon as the raily and cooler weather comes on, most people begin to keep themselves within the four walls of their homes. They spend part of their spare time-in stuffy, il-ventilated places of amusement. This sudden change from an abundance of fresh air and exercise to a fe of inactivity and confiment is very prejudicial to health. It is this that is largely responsible for the many coughs, the colds, grip and bronchitis in the autumn. The first secret, therefore, of avoiding the danger of ill health during changes of season is not to deprive one’s self of an ordinary amount of exercise in the open air. Keep out in the open as much as is consistent with comfort, and avoid hot and stuffy rooms in the winter. Do not hasten to make changes of clothing on the first cool day. It is wise to waft till the season has advanced sufficiently to make the change perma- nent. In the fall the change to @ more lib- | eral allowance in diet becomes impera-} tive for many. Nature demands more food to keep the body warm, and the appétite increases. This demand must nourished, infections with germs the more easily aqueduéts in a region te the whenes it came, whither it vanished. diss pents. Then, in 1598, a party of Spaniards from Mexieo explored it. Ancient tra- ditions that !t was an Eidorado con- taining seven huge treasure cities urged them on. They found na treasure—noth- ing but desolation and warlike savages. So they returned, disheartened, to Mex- ico. Next year @ second expedition, under Coronado, explored it and made one or twe military settlements there. The place became known as “Arizona,” which some authorities translate as 4 “arid belt.” The town of Tucson was founded there in 1560. A village named Tubac also sprang up. Here missions were established. And for more than 200 years these twe little towns—or migsion postse—were the only permanent settlements in all’ Arizona. There seemed little to tempt colonists, atid there was much to terri- fy them. The mest ferocious and mer- ciless Indians in all ca—Apaches and Navajos—awarmed over the land; torturing and all the white men théey could lay hands, on. Of Ari- azona’s 72,882,000 acres only 000 were capable of being cultivated. There were vast deserts, there was almost no rain. Fierce beasts and fiercer redskins scourged the entire tract. The scienee of irrigation, that has since made large stretches ef Arigons blossom like the rose, was unknown. There were no ad ethods for getting at the w » Wealth . of gold, silver, copper and prec stones with which the district was so bounti- fully supplied.’ And Arizona remained practically a desert waste. It was nom- inally a part of Mexico. But Mexico did nothing to develop it. After the Mexican War all of Afizona north of the Gila River was ceded to the United States, and later, by the Gadsden Purchase, the rest of the fu- ture State was acquired. When the “gold fever’ of 184 sent people rush- ing wildly westward to California some tired emigrants halted in Arizona and, on the Gila River’s banks, started a stock raising industry. They were the first permanent Amé- dan settlers. And soon they made their presence felt,.

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-—Five thousand persons, 300 of whom had remained up all night, stotfmed the Polo Grounds today at the opening ot the public sale of the remaining reserve seats for the world’s champlonship baseball series. Twelve thousand tickets {n all were put on sale—4000 for each of the three games scheduled for New York. If Sat- urday’s game is not played the money will be refunded. Each purchaser was allowed two seats for any or all the three games; but tae bulk of the crowd sought tickets for the first game, to be played tomorrow. The tickets were handled at three separate windows, so that to buy seats for the seriés, it was necessary for the applicant to fall in line three times. This tended to defeat speculators and divided the allotment over three days in the hands of three delegations of en- thusiasts. In the hotel lobbies here, are gathered hundreds of men notable in the base- ball _world,. among. them _ Presidents dig leagues, and August Herrmann of Cin- cinnati, who constitute the “supreme court” of baseball. They had an in- formal meeting scheduled for the day at which they planned a final super- vision of arrangements for the big games.

The Weather Bureau hopes to provide “erroriess’’ weather for the pening game. Its official forecast for Tuesday is “fair and colder; moderate, variable winds.”’ It could be several degrees colder, however, without spoiling the game.

Baseball was dealt a black eye by the fluky bevy of hits poled by Lajoie. The same teams engaged in the final game of the season on the same field Sunday. Lajoie was one of the participants, and, strange to relate, he was also the owner of five hits. They were of a different brand, however, from the ones he got credit for on the 1910 wind-up. In fact, Lajole had a great day Sunday. He went up five times and poled as many hits, one being a triple down the line that shoved over the Naps’ first run. Four of his five blows were line drives. The fifth was a slow roller to Pratt, and the big Frenchman beat the throw to first for a single. Pratt didn’t play the ball as John Lawrence Corriden did two seAsongs ago, however. .. wr fin

Big Demonstration Marks Sox’ Departure for First Title Game.

_BOSTON, Oct. 7.—The Boston Red Sox left this afternoon for New York. They were given a demonstrative farewell by several thousand supporters, The Red Sox went through an hour of light practice this forenoon. Attention was given largely to batting. Of three pitchérs who tossed .to the batters, two, Van Dyke and Collins, are left-handers. Joe Wood, Bos- ton’s probable choice in tomorrow’s game, warmed up with Cady as his catcher most of the time. Two of the Boston players complained of slight colds. Hall did not get into his play- ing togs for this reason, although he looked well, Duffy Lewis batted out long flies ana laid down bunts with the others, but said his cold still bothered him. Many Boston enthusiasts had purchased tickets for the 1 o’clock train and thousands of others planned to give the team a rousing send-off. While the _ players were going through their morning practice, many of those who will be spectators of the game here were lined up outside Fenway Park tv get their allotment of reserved seat tickets. Efforts of the speculators to buy reserva- tion of the local games have been frustrated thus far. club owners believe.

Reds. Will Sign Chanee; Cards to Keep Hugoins

By W. J. O’CONNOR Three managerial changes are sure to be made in the National League next season, and indirectly they will influ- ence the make-up of the Cardinals. Un- official, but fairly reliable, announce- ment was made’ia Chicago Sunday that Frank Chance would manage the Reds, next season. That means the curtain will be drawn on Hank O’Day’'s career as a tactician. Then Johnny Kling has come to bat with the announcement that he will not return fo Boston, in- dicating that George Stallings, now of Buffalo, “but formerly of New York, will handle the reins in the Hub. Chance’s successor has not been hamed although it generally is accepted that Joe Tinker will draw the assignment. However only ‘in Chance’s affiliation with the Cincinnati club is St. Louis interested.

WE HAVE WITH Us, HOPE. ITH the curtain bately. down 2n the twenty-fourth major league sea- son since St: Louis last owned a baseball pennant, the Midwinter Con- versation League has already planned a temporary organization with a view to demonstrating the great future of both local clubs in 1913. Old Kid Hope is the.one vetéran of them all who is able te come back annually as fresh as evér. Can you beat it? But while one is compelled to respect optimism that survives in the face of! * quarter century of setbacks, it is only fair to say that this fall the stuff that springs eternal iy St. Louis must re- quire a very slight encouragement to g° on the job. Both teams have shown some new ma- térial; and while a new man here and there on the two clubs has made something of a flash, the lack of finish recessary for big league survival has been evident. 3 2 * ALL UP TO DAME FORTUNE, HE chance is the usual] 1-to-10 shot that neither club draws two stars of big league caliber in the entire out- fit. That there is always some hope of @ material advance the case of the Washington club illustrates; but once in a decade is about all such lucky breaks occur. ° The Cardinals still need a pitching staff, a .80 outfielder and a third base- man. The Browns need two outfielders, an infielder, catchers and a few other essentials. And the chances are strong- ly against either club getting all it needs for a successful campaign. So the United Order of Never-Give- Ups is really traveling on their nerve in hoping for next séason stuff. * 7 . ALL UP TO PITCHERS. N fact the Cardinals slipped back from their previous season form in 1912; and though the Browns advanced, it was due entirely to the improvement cf Hamilton and the unexpected good work of Baumgardner and Allison. The team gathered about these men is Uttle if any improvement over that’ of last season. The presence of that pitching staff, however, is the favorable sign. A few j kood .300 swatters in that list of raw recruits will assure the Browns freedom from the fear of slipping back to tha last notch. But the pennant stuff? Sh-h-ii! Let the paranoiacs rave, * — J — A SURE SIGN.

It | {is well known that Mr. Milligan ever allows anyone to wake him by | gOifiething Hike a dictagraph. “Workings will be brought out more “minutely during the big series. “The awakening of Swat suddenly | was due to the arrival of Whitey ‘Whipsaw, the star pitcher of the Rashes, who has come to as- the @ames, Capt.

To begin with he chose big Jeff Tesreau team lined up. 7 “Why, I can throw Tesreau out with my left hand,” said Chief Meyers, who wanted something hard- er. “We shall see,” smiled Swat. Tesreau was put on the base and Whitey Whipsaw went to the box. On the first pitched ball Tesreau went down to second and Meyers’ throw was so wild that he kept go- ing to third. The Chief was seen to rub his eyes. One after another the slower runners of the Giants were tried out and every one of them stole with comparative ease, while Meyers blinked his eyes strangely. {It must be understood, however, that Milligan was at the bat and gave them the signal when to start. The Chief was so discouraged that he began to fear something was the matter with his arm. “Don’t bother about that,” said Swat. *I am making you throw wilq and any batter on your team can do the same thing -by the aid of this bat. I'll make it plainer.” Rube Marquard was the next start- er, Swat gave him the signal to 0 just as he swung at the first ball. As Milligan drew back the wonderful bat. he was seen to the ruby set in the side, _I tly a slot in the side of the bat opened and a puff of' fine white powder struck the Chief squarely in the eyes. He threw the ball to the center field fence.

It's no wonder she’s so peevish. That's @ sure sign she’s going to be an old maid.
