ABOUT TWICE DIAMETER RIVIAL DIVORCE ACTIONS ASSAILED IN APPEALS COURT Solemnity. of Marriage Contract ' —— — Reversing De-~ cree for John: Barth. In —— a divorce deeree ‘awikdedl by the Circuit Court, a year ago to John Barth against Katie Bath, the Court of Appeals Tuesday affirmed the solem- nity of the marriage contract and de- clared that it should not be ‘dissolved for trivial causes. “It may appear banal,” the decision states, “‘to call attention to the im- portance of the marriage contract. To be sure, it is a civil’ contract, but it lies at the foundation of society and in a measure of government itself. “When it becomes apparent that, the true aims of the union of a man and woman can no longer be. achieved by continuing the marital. tie, it.can hardly be to the interest of society to demand that it be preserved by mere force of law. “ | “But the courts should see that the union. is not dissolved on: slight testi- mony or for light-and trivial causes. Nor is it to be dissolved, however galling the bonds have become, if neither of the par- ties to 4t comes into court with clean Lands.” Barth — that his wife. was jeal- cus, charged him with associating with other women, and once threw a meat ax ‘through a window in his butcher shop. he replied that’ he took a trip. ta Ger- ‘many without tmforming” her of his in- ‘tention ‘until the day he departed, and that on his return he was In St. Louis three days before telling her of his ar- rival. The Court of Appeals held that while Mrs. Barth may have been guilty of Lnagging, she was not without provoca~-} tion and that Barth was not innocent or blameless. The lower court was. in- etrpeted to dismiss his divorce petition. WOMEN’S JURY AGREES, BUT 12 MEN COULDN'T Suffrasgists Bow Heads in Silent Prayer Before Undertaking to Decide Case.

CHICAGO, Dec. 3,—Jack”* Johnson, negro pugilist, declared today that a» planned to marry tonight Lucile Camer- on, the 19-year-old Minneapolis white girl, whose mother,’ caused his arrest or serious charges. The impending marriage will not affect his case before the Federal Court, according to Joha- son's attorneys. Johnson this morning obtained a marriage license. He first made his application to L. C.

The Cameron girl was not with him and when the prize fighter said she would not be 19 years old unti) February, the clerk, fol- lowing a rule of the office of not is- suing a licenss unless the girl is pres- cat to g@wear to her age, declined to is- sue the permit. Clerk Allows the License. Johnson then appeal to Robert M. Sweitzer, County Clerk, who overruled Legner, and Johnson went away, grin- ‘ning, with the document safely stowed in his —pocket. Johnson explained °* to the County Clerk that the records in court show. the Cameron girl is over 1k years of age. Johnson gave his own age as 34. The prizefighter said a moving picture concern had agreed to pay him $5000 to make a’film of the wedding, which tis scheduled to take place at’ the hore of his aged mother on the South Side. Johnson announced that he had ar- ranged. with H. A. Roberts, a negro preacher, “to perform the ceremony. The wedding will be attended by a few intimate friends and relatives, accord- ing to Johnson. “T had a long talk with Miss Odanersn yesterday and we decided to be mai- ried tonight,’” said Johnson. “I. ox- plained that I) had been blamed for u treating her and that we might as well be married right away.

Evidence supplied by paper targets and the revelation of strange and unex- piainable circumstances in connection with the fatal shooting of John Hall, when -rabbit hunting with four other inen, five miles north of St. Charles on the afternoon of Thanksgiving day, have caused the Coroner and prosecut- ing authorities of St Charles to reopen the case. Hall was Progressive party rominee for Assessor of St. Charles County at the recent election. He was oe years old. In the investigation row under way, three “of the men who served on the Cor- cner’s jury and returned a verdict that Hall was accidentally killed with his }own gun will be summoned as impor- tant witnesses to aid the State in clear- ing the mystery. . A Post-Dispatch reporter who went to St. Charles to obtain information about the tragedy found that sentiment was overwhelmingly in favor of setting aside the hastily-returned verdict of the Cor- ener’s jury. Not only his political friends but many who worked against him in campaigns are insisting that further efforts be made to learn how he came to his death. Disinterment Is Likely. The body was buried at Joneshurz, in Warren County, Sunday. The reopening of the case may make it necessary to disinter it and bring it back to ‘St. Charles for a second inquest. Four sheets of brown manila paper, one punctured and burned and the oth- ers peppered with birdshot, are relied upon to show that Hall was not shot with his own gun. It is contended that the weapon which killed him was at least 40 feet away. woe * —“ — fromthe, inside Widow Aoxious for Inquiry. . Mrs. Hall, with herifour ‘small chil- dren, returned to St. © ‘from: the funeral Monday night. Sie insists that a thorough. investigation be_ made. With Hall when he ‘started on the hunting trip were Michael Jost and three brothers, Gordon, Charles and Os- car De Roy. Gerdon De’ Roy's wife is Hall's. sister. Hal! was shot on the Peyton farm early in the afternoon, in an open field of wheat stubble. Dr. Roy Belding, who Was sworn in ag coroner of St. Charles only three days before the shooting, was summoned to the farm by telephone and this was his first inquest. The Coroner found Hall’s body lying in the field about 150 yards from the Peyton farmhouse. Hall had fallen face downward. When the body was turned over it was found that the chest was riddled with bird shot. It wag not noted at the time, but subsequent in- vestigation showed that the clothing was not powder-burned. The shotgun with one barrel empty and the other containing an exploded shell, was round four feet from the body. Coroner Belding lost little time in hold- ing the inquest.. Gordon and Ogcar De Roy ahd Michael Jost were sworn in as members of the jury. The other three surymen were farmers in the neighbor- hood. Only One Witness Heard. Charles De: Roy was the only witness oxamined. He testified that at the time of the shooting he and his brother, Oscar, and Hal] were the only persons in the field. ‘Gordon De Roy and Michael Jost had gone to the Peyton farmhouse to get 3 drink and were drawing water at a well in the farm yard. tions of those in the party, all had their backs turned when the fatal shot was fired. Charles was to Hall’s left and about 40 yards in advance of him. Os- car was to Hall's ‘right and about 9 yards ahead of Hall. The men at the well were about 60 yards in front of Oscar. There was nothing to obstruct a view of the field from the Peyton farm- house, but so far as can be learned, no one there saw the tragedy in the field. Charles de Roy’s statement was brief. He heard a shot behind him. He heard Hall cry: “Oh, Charley, I'm shot.” He turned and saw Hall running toward him in a crouching position. After run- ning about 4 feet, Hall fell forward Charles de Roy and Oscar de Roy ran to him. When they reached him he was dead. Jury’s Verdict Speedy. They ran toward the Peyton Seite house and met Gordon de Roy and Michael Jost, who had started toward the field when they heard the shot. No one else was in sight. Charles 4e Roy and his brother, Oscar, notified the Peytons, who telephoned for the Coroner. The jury, without retiring to delib- erate, returned a verdict that Hall accl- es whe wished,” they said.

Sneed is under indictment for the murder of Al G, Boyce Jr. last Septem- , ber, and will be taken to Vernon * trial in February. Friends of both. the Sneeds and the Boyces filled. the courtroom. when the verdict was returried. Sneed wag em- braced by his children and his friends, many of. whom, despite the warning of court officers, cheered and threw their hats into the air. wneed claimed self-defense, and also @ conspiracy on the part of the Boyces nf rob him of his wife. The families -involved in the two tragedies are wealthy and have promi- nent parts fn the upbuilding of Texas. After the elopement, Sneed spent $20,000 in a chase across the continent to find his wife. Walter Scott and W. P. McLean Jr., defense lawyers, were fined for throwing their hats over the chandeliers in the courtroom. Sneed emitted a cowboy yell, but the Court refused to censure him or to fine him. Mrs. Sneed awaited the verdict in a downtown hotel. Sneed telephoned the news to her. , | Jadge Swayne, speaking of the ver- dict, said: “— don’t see how they could have ; found it. under my instructions.” .

Sneed felt anger at the dismissal that day of the indictments charging abduction aghinst the younger Boyce.. . Boyee, who was 70 years old, was. sit- ting in the lobby of the hotel when Bneed waiked in. Boyce was unarmed. | Sneed ‘walked up to ‘the elder.man. The old man turned and looked at Sneed and then asked him, bystanders said: “Well, what are you going to do about it?’ Sneed muttered something in reply and then, drawing his revolver, fired two shots quickly. He hesitated an in- stant. as the older man fell forward and then fired three more shots into Boyce's side: Boyce was dying when others ta the lobby reached’ him. Sneed immediately left the hotel, but was drrested’ a short time later: as ‘he was returning to the scene of the shoot- ing. Qn his deathbed, Boyce made a state- ment declaring that he saw, Sneed once before in ths lobby of the hotel, and avoided him.

This, howeve?, was a mere formality,,as Judge Taylor had explained to Father Phelan ,before fcourt opened that a layman can hot ap- pear as an attorney in. such ex- cept when defending himself. The Judge then questioned Mrs. Fisch- er and when told by her that she had no money to employ. a luwyer, he con- tinued the case 6) days and announced he would. appoint an attorney for the defense. Benjamin F.

can industries—these are the more strik- | : ing features of President Taft’s fourth annual message sent to Congress today. The message is the first of a series of such communications which he will make to Congress in the -early days of the session, and deals entirely with the foreign relations of the United States. Beginning with the usual reference to the existing good relations with foreign powers, ths President adds that these have been strengthened by “a greater insistence upon justice to American citi- zens, or interests, wherever it may have bsen denied, and a stronger emphasis of the need of mutuality in commercial and other relations,” Get Most Favored Nation Treatment. For the first time in its history, says the President, the State Department has obtained substantially the most fa- vored nation treatment from all of the countries of the world. Therefore, he Says that it is only natural that com- petitive countries should view with some concern the expansion of our com- merce. Hence the warning, “If in some instances the measures taken by, them to meet it are not entirely equitable, a remedy should be found.”’ To this end the President strongly recommends the enactment of: the’ bill recommended by Secretary Knox last December, permitting the Government, instead of imposing the full maximum] rates of duty against discriminating countries, to apply a graduated acale of duties, up to that maximum of % per cent. “Flat tariffs are out of date,” says the President, ‘‘Nations no Jonger ac- cord equal tariff treatment tO all other nations, “irrespective ot the treatment from them re¢eived. * * ® It is very necessary that the American Govern- ment should be equipped with Weapons adapted to modern economic conditions.’’ State Department Was Archaic. The State Department, ‘an archaic and inadequate machine,”’ at the begin- ning of this administration, the Presit- dent says, has become a new organiza- tion, with highly specialized bureaus and experts dealing) with every phase of American trade| and diplomacy. Hold- ing that the essence of this reorganized service is found in the merit system, which President) Cleveland is credited with having introduced, President Taft makes a strong appeal to Congress to make this machine permanent, by giving the force of statutory law to the exec- utive orders governing admission to and promotion in the diplomatic and consu- lar services. | To show that these appointments are already largely nonpartisan, the Presi- dent points to the fact that three of the present ambassadors are holdovers; that of the 10 he appointed, five were by promotion from the rank of minister; that of the 30 ministers appointed, 11 were promotions; and that in the con- sular service no fewer than 66 per cent of the consuls appointed by him were from the Southern States. Responds to Modern Ideas. “The diplomacy of the present admin- istration has sought to respond to mod- ern ideas of commercial intercourse,”’ says President Taft. “This policy has been characterized as substituting dol- lars for bullets. It is one that appeals alike to idealistic humanitarian senti- ments, to the dictates of sound policy and strategy, and to legitimate commer- cial aims.’’ The President adds that “because mod- ern diplomacy is commercial, there has been a disposition in some quarters to attribute to it none but materialistic aims.’”’ ) “How strikingly erroneous is such an impression may be seen from a study of the results by which the diplomacy of. the United States can be judged,” says “the President. He mentions the arbitration treaties with France and Great Britain, which failed of confirmation in the Senate; the successful tripartite mediation of the Argentine Republic, Brazil and the United States, between Peru and Hcua- dor; the intervention between Hiti and thé Dominican Republic on the varge of war, the suppression of the Nicara- guan war, the halting of thternecine strife in Honduras, the adjustment of the celebrated Tacna-Arica dispute be- tween Peru and Chile, and the adjust- ment of the Peruvian-Equadorian bound- ary issue. In consequence of these things, says the President, there has been a general easing of international tension on the west coast of South America. He also adds that the diplomacy of the United States is active in seeking to the remaining ill feeling between this }}country and Colombia. | Taking up some of the details of the year’s diplomatic work, the President refers with expressions of pride to Chi- na, where “the policy of _ encouraging financial inve

There has beeh «4 vigorous assertion, also, he says, of the equal right of thé United States to a voice in all’ questions pertaining to Chi- loans and developments. ' eosin Taft makes the direct charge that the terrible events record- ed in Nicaragua recently, the useless loss of life, the devastation of prop- erty, the bombardment of the principal cities, the killings and the tortures and suffering, ‘“‘mizht have been averted ‘had the Department of State, through eP- proval of the loan convention by the Senate, been permitted to carry out its now well-developed Policy.’’ | +t Central America the alm has been to help such countries as Nicaragua and Honduras to help’ themselves,” says President Taft. - While they are the immediate bene- ficiaries, the profit to the United States is two-fold, he adds. The Monroe Doc- trine is more vital in the neighborhood of the Panama Canal, and such coun- tries should be relieved of the jeopardy of heavy foreign debts likely to provoke international complications. The financial rehabilitation of these countries by American bankers and the protection of their customs houses from being the prey of would-be dictators, says the President, would remove the menace of foreign creditors and revolu-

His father must: have re- sorted to strategy to have taken him from me this way. ee “How much truth is there fn the story that August Belmont will give you $50,- 000 to consent to an annulment of the marriage?’ was asked, “Don’t make me laugh,” replied the bride. “Don’t make me taugh,” she | “I am not tn a laughing mood. money the Belmonts possess.

MERGER DECREE AWAITS : THE TERMINAL DECISION ‘Question of Jurisdiction in-Sup- ervising Dissolution Will Be Settled in St. Louis’ Case.

of the Judges to supervise the dissolu- tion ef the Union Pacific merger; as de- creed by the Supreme Court, may depend upon the disposition of the St. Louls Terminal case now before the Court. In both cases four Judges were called in, under the “expedition act’ to try tne Government's charges in the Circuit Court. In both cases the Supreme Court sent the sults back to the Circuit Court to. carry out its mandate. When the Terminal decree went back for enforce- mont, a controversy arose as to wheth- er the District Court in whieh the suit was brought should enforce the decree ef the Supreme Court or whether the four Circuit Judges should be called in again. The Government has brought the St. Louls dispute to the Supreme Court for a test decision. PEDDLER’S SKULL BROKEN In Hospital Saye He Was At- tacked by a Negro.

SOME PROMISE TO ASSIST Plan Outlined at Second. Baptist Church Is Both Criticised and Commended. The challenge of Augustus L. Abbott, vice-president of the Board of Police Commissioners, Monday night, in his speech at the. Second Baptist Church, to the. ministers and churchmen of the West End at an anti-vice meeting, to let themselves be accosted by girls and women on the streets and after they have thus gained evidence to have them arrested, aroused a variety of comment among the ministry, laymen and police of the city Tuesday. “The police cannot stop the social evil alone. God fearing men of the com- munity must drive these unfortunate ‘women from the West End if our homes are to be protected,”’ said Mr. Abbott jn the course of hfs remarks.. Committee Is Chosen. The. ministry In attendances, at the suggestion of Dr. W. C. Bitting, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, at ihe close of the meeting moved that a com- mittee composed of representatives fr>:n

jeight leading churches of the city be appointed to investigate the proposal. It was adopted. Dr. Bitting, to the great merriment of the-gathering, said he hoped the committee would give the deacons something to do besides “looking pret- ty .when they.took up.the collection on Sundays.” “Of course,” Dr: ‘Bitting said later, “I meant that merely as a pleasantrv and it was so taken: by everyone.” The.Rev. James W.. Lee, pastor of St. John’s Methodist Episcopal Church, aft- er the meeting, said: *‘Before I would voluntéer to go out and discover evi- dence as Mr. Abbott requests, I would desire ‘to hear the report of our com- mittee before granting the necessity of such an innovation. I refuse to say what I will do if the committee reports such a line of action is desirable.’’ Minister Questions Plan. Dr. Duckworth, pastor »f the Church cf the Redeemer, who has been taking an active part in the agitatioi against vice in the West End, and who was one ef the speakers at the mass meeting told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he did not think the ministers could afford to volunteer in the cause. “If we did what Abbott suggested,” said Dr. Duckworth, “‘we would soon get ourselves into serious trouble. Sup- pose we went out and tried to convict women according to the method that he suggested, look at the views that would be taken of the matter by pefsons who saw us on-the street with those women, . “Our motives would be misunderstood and questioned. Besides, we are as well known in the localities in which we have our churches as the policeman on the beat. I do not think we could do ef- fective work as volunteer detectives. “However,” continued Dr. Duckworth, ‘1 think the laymen who were there will volunteer for the work and will do it, too.“ Several days ago Dr. Duckworth roundly condemned conditions in the West End. He said that vestrymen in his church had complained to him that they were being trailed by women on the street. Ministers Disposed to Wait. The Rev. Arthur L. Odell, King's Highway Presbyterian Church, said: ‘‘I did not volunteer at the mesting to fol- low out the plan pointed out by Mr. Abbott because I am not personally ac- quainted with the condtions that are said to demand such treatment. I have much faith in the committee appointsd to investigate and will be governed in the main by what it recommends.” M. E. Alling, Fountain Park Congre- gational emia, said: “Mr. Abbott's veritable allenge to the ministry and churchmen of the city is so startling and noval that I think it demands a thorough inspection before I would countenance its adoption. Dr. Bitting’s flan to have a committee investigate fts feasibility and necessity was a splen- did one. I will await its report.”’ Rabbi G. Lipkind said: “At this time I do not desire to stats whether I would act in accordance with Mr. Abbott's re- guest. I think it deserves considera- tion.” Challenges Churchmen to Ald. At the conclusion of his spirited ad- dress, in which ne compared the atti- tude of ministers and deacons of the toward the police to that of spectators at a prize fight, alternately cheering and -hissing, but never help- ing either of the fighters, Abbott chal- lenged the churchmen to co-operate with the police in “suppressing vice in the West End. “It is easy enough,” said Abbett, “to shout ‘street walker.’ But it is another thing to get evidence. That is work. But it is a Christian work that any of you can do, “A policeman cannot do it, but you can. The women of the street know the police and will not approach them. But they will approach you. Let them do so. Pretend to yield. Walk with them on the street to the corner, or until you meet a policeman and then hand the woman over to the policeman. The next

jday go into court and present your evi- When Abbott had concluded, W. E. Graves of 5149 Westminster place arose and notified Abbott that his chalienge Would be accepted, , “If you want volunteers to clean up i kc said —* Mand oe will clean up the street.” Abbott scored the ministers and churchmen for their attitude toward the police. He said that in his experience he knew of only one case where a min- ister had co-operated with the police’ in ‘the suppressiongof vice and that was in the recent jolfit- Invébtigation-here by a ‘Protestant, Catholic and Hebrew com- mittee. Views in Other Cities, : Abbott said the same opinion was fheld of ‘ministers by police officials in every important city in the country and he read to the meeting opinions of the churchmen that. had been expressed at various times by such men as Com- missioner .O’Meara of Boston, Chief Kohler of Cleveland. and Mayor Whit- lock of Toledo. bott read: —* “Force, jails and prisons are the ‘weapons that ministers want the po— lice to use.”—Mayor Whitlock. “They might help if they -would stop scolding, but most of them are idie theorists. The think people are wicked when they are really only weak.”’"—Chief. Kohler of Cleveland. “Never get any help from local clergy—only complaints.”—Chorus -f police officials, * streets, you might-ask why do not de+ tectives g2t the evidence against them. Well, the answer is simple. It would be imp%ssible to maintain a body of detectives sufficiently large to be con- tinually operating over the entire city. “When you know the facts about an evil that is existing, take your facts to the Chief of Police. or the Chief of De- tectives.

- WILL 8ST. LOUIS OFFEND SOUTHERNERS? If the Council has regard for the business welfare of St. Louis and the advantages of South-’ ern trade to St. Louis it will promptly forestall’ the damage its action has invited in refusing a site in Forest Park to the Confederate memorial. The intimate relation which St. Louis sustains to the South and Southwest in trade is of first - importance. More than any other city St. Louis caters to’the good will of the Southern merchant and the great bulk of its business is with the South and the territory of which it is called the gateway. Does the City Council wish the Southern press to teem with comment and criticism upon the narrowness and mean spirit of a city which can-* not or will not tolerate a memorial of .he South- “ert, cause? Which has no sympathy for Southern pufferings? Which, through containing thou- sands of people of Southern blood, shows no ten- _derness, but only bitterness of memory, towards _ the vanquished? ’ Does the City Council wish the boards of trades in Southern cities to pass resolutions against Bt. Louis? The South is better able to get along without Ft.

INAUGURATION IN DECEMBER, | From the New York World. For many years the postponement of the presidential inaugurations from March to May has been urged, chiefly with reference to the convenience of sightseers and the profits of Washing- ton hotel keepers and merchants. ' What is needed in this, as in many other matters relating to government, is not delay but expedition. The Presi- dent and the House of Representatives are elected in November. They should take office on the first Monday in De- cember following. When Senators are elected by popular vote, such an ar- rangement will present no difficulty. The necessary amendments to the Con- stitution ought to be easy. We now see an old Congress containing many defeated members and an executive de- partment that has been repudiated by the people resuming work as if nothing had happened. It is-this lack of rela- tion between popular and official action which causes much of our political dis- content and violence. Defeated con- gresses not only obstruct the will of the people, but they often become corrupt. Many a victory won by public opinion has been lost under the conditions.

WHAT LOSS OF ONE VOTE DID. From the Richmond Virginian. A correspondent of the Virginian re- lates in today’s issue an interesting story of how a squealing pig, caught in a fence on a Rhode Island farm, brought. on the War of 1812, elected Andrew Jack- son President and destroyed the Bank of the United States. The pig delayed a Whig voter and prevented him from reaching the polis in time to vote. The result was the election of a Democratic Legislature by a majority of one vote, a Democratic Senator from Rhode Island by one vote, @ declaration of war with Great Britain by one vote, the war resulting event- wally in Jackson’s election as President. The moral of this story is the unexpect- ef value of one vote at times.

Only Feet He Had. From Judge. Henry Augustus was learning how to dress himself, he was not as big as the name sounds. Mother, looking on, said: “Why, my son, you have your shoes on the wrong feet!" “Well,” screamed Henry Augustus, “they're the only feet I have to put ‘em on!” “i Identification Cards, From the Boston Globe. . Any citisen of good repute in St. Louis can get at the police station an identifi- cation card, which, it ie sald, may be of use to him in case he is arrested. But why should St. Louls citisens of good repute ever be arrested?

SOCRATES ON THE FUTILITY OF WEALTH. Socrates: Ah, gentlemen! I wag hoping to see you. Glaucon: On what score, Socrates? Socrates: There is a matter upon which I would lke your advice. Polemarchus: Our advice! ° Socrates: Certainly, my dear Polemarchus. Carnegius has just of- fered me a pension, and I do not know if I ought to accept it Glaucon: I think you should, by all: means. Thrasymachus: So do I. Polemarchus: Why not? good, and are quite as deserving as anyone else, Socrates: to accumulate money, as Carnegius has. Still, I might make out; whereas wealth, as I see it, is in itself futile, and unless I avail myself of the offer, it will have served no goed purpose in life at all. Glaucon: ‘True. Socrates: Let us take the case of Carnegius, for instance, [t is admitted, I think, that the best thing he has done with his money ig to place it at the digposal of persons who are doing something entirely too useful to have any time to make money themselves. Glaucon: Certainly. : Socrates: That is, the various scientists and teachers whom Carne gius is either employing now or will také care of in their old age, make it possible for his wealth to do good, whereas it would otherwise do no good whatever, Glaucon: Of course. ) Socrates: Just as the university which Rockefellerius maintains, and the doctors and surgeons whom he employs, make uséful] a fortune which would otherwise not only be the largest in history, but the most useless as well. Glaucon: Unquestionably. Socrates: Very well. They we must conclude that it is only as the handmaiden of brains that wealth finds any practical use in the world, and that if brains denied it this one opportunity to justify itself, it would come into contempt. : Glaucon: Truly. : Socrates: That is, it rests with us, who are too busy to make it, whether it shall be of use or not. You have devoted your life to the public Socrates: That is very sweet of you, Polemarchus. Now let us straws, to see who will bring in a bucket of coal j i

these is of vital importance to the home, where, to use a favorite expression of anti-sufragists, “Woman reigns su- preme.”’. Another equally high-sounding and under present conditions equally meaningless phrase is ‘“‘The hand that rocks the cradle miles the world.”’ Just put that to a little practical test.

The high-strung American women do not possess the cool, calcu- lating nature required to manage a po- litical campaign, and once in politics she would most certainly want to lead. There are a few women capable of cast- ing an intelligent vote, and such women would untloubtedly be a great factor in deciding political {asues of the day; but I think it best to sacrifice the few to save the many by denying them the privilege of the ballot.

B.C SCHEDULES | 7 1913 GAME WITh NOTRE DAME MEN... Prospects Bright for Winning ſve employea: Eleven at Easton Avénue School Next.Season. ~— The success of the Christian Brothers College team this season has resulted in plans for a more extensive schedulé for the 1913 campaign: In fact, Brother Lawrence, in charge of athletics at the Easton avenue institutidn, has already entered negotiations with many teams for contests next: year. It is practically settled that the Has- kell Indians, who were beaten 96 in the Thanksgiving day game, and Notre Dame will occupy prominent places on the purple and gole schedule. The Notre Dame contest was wélcomed because Coach Luke Kelly, who 18 to be retainea as football mentor, is a former star of the South Bend eleven. Games with Arkansas and Baker are also desired, while mixups ‘in October have been booked with D2 Paul Uni- versity of Chicago and the’ Cape Girar- deau Normal eleven, the teams making the best showing on * year'a calen- dar. Cannot Play Freshwen. According to Brother Lawrénoe, the ques- tion of adopting an eiigibility rule xcor next searon hagn’t come up for action as yet... It is probable, however.' that the Brothers will be obliged to adopt some’ code. . First-year men will not be permitted to play against the Notre Dame team, this fact being stipu lated in the agreement to be signed. : It would have been impossible for Cy. B. Cc. to have a team this season had the first-year men been. barred, inasmuch. as football. was restored after having been abolished for about six years, Next year At will work a hardship to rule out the freshmen, although it will not be. as augs cult as the present year. Prospects for another winner are bright, of the 16 players who were .members of .the equad when the season ended tast Thurs- John Mag- ner, the best foothall player in St. Louwls, will be lost, as he'has played four séasons of varsity. football, two with.

One letter came from Cincinnati, and was signed “‘A Relative.” The writer took Schlecht to task severely for his advice to husbands. Other writers éxpressed solicitude for the wife of a man who held such views of married life.

Schlecht declared Tuesday that he did not méan to be understood as advocating a tyrannical policy on the part of hus- bands. He said he believed the husband should be the responsible head of the family, and should show firmhess when firmness is neéded, but that he also realizes the neéd for gentleness and con- sidemation. Mrs. Schlecht’s statement, made at the time of her husband's interview, did not indicate that she lived in any ‘especial awe of him. ‘Yon can often make your husband think he is the boss when he isn’t,” was her way of expressing what every married woman knows.
