WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—Former Sen- ator Foraker today produced a state- ment before the Senate Campaign Ex- penditures Investigating Committee, prepared by Gilchrist Stewart, purport- ing to be based on a description by W. W. Winkfield, negro, a son of John D. Archbold’s butler, of how Winkfield and Charles Stump took the ‘Archbold let- ters’’ from the Standard Oil offices and sold them to a representative of Wii- liam R. Hearst. “Mr. Hearst said yesterday that he did not know how the letters were pro- cured,” declared the former Senator. “Such a preposterous story as that you might tell to the marines, but to n* one else.”’ Foraker said Stewart in 1908 sent hira a newspaper clipping, in which W. A. Uliman, “‘attorney for C. P. Taft,’’ was reported to have consulted with Hearst about the letters before they were pub lished and suggested that Ollman, Taft and John T. Cronin, the latter former- ly connected politically : awith Mr. Hearst, be called as witnesses. Foraker declared that about a week ago he had Stewart go to Chicago, wheré Winkfield was working as a wai- ter, and ascertain what he knew. Upon the interview, he said, Stewart had nased his report. What that report can- tained Foraker proceeded to. detail, de- claring that he did not vouch for its accuracy. He added that the commit- tee could call Winkfield. Saw Hearst’s “Representative.” According to ths statement presented, Winkfield and Stump noticed a newspa- per item about the sale of letters, and Ltaking some from the Archbold files, tried to sell them, but failed.

He called a policeman, and ran the! prepare machine rapidly to the city hospital. It was evident to the policeman, for most of the trip, that life was extinct. From the hospital the body was sent to the morgue. A card of the Iowa: Traveling Men’s Association was found in MacDougall’s pocket, also an. identification card of the United States Casualty Co., naming Wiliam F. Paschedag as the person to be notified in case of any accident to the bearer. White Powder in Sack. A bank book of the Commonwealth Trust Co., also in his pocket, showed a balance of $19.10 Nov. 23. A gold watch was in one of his pockets and there was also a small sack, containing a white powder of the character. of which the police were not sure. . T. H. Bilundell,. superintendent of Scruggs, Vandervoort & Barney, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that MacDougal had been engaged there for 2 or 2 vears, but resigned two months ago. His last work was as dress goods buyer. Since his resignation at the Scruggs store, Blundell said, MacDougall had been employed ‘as a floor walker inj. another store—the Grand-Leader, he be- lieved. ‘Blundell said MacDougall was temperate in his habits, and that he did not know what reason he could have for ending his Hfe. He said he and other officials at the Scruggs store would do anything —~ cols to ald Mrs. MacDougall. " At the Greer avenue nawine a Post-Dis- patch reporter was told that Mrs. Mac- Dougall was downtown Going Christmas| shopping. Frederick W. Post, Mrs. MacDougall’s father, said he knew of no reason for his son-in-law’s act. He left home at the usual time In the morning, Post said, to go to his work in the silk department of the Grand-Leader. His married life, Post said, had been very happy. The MacDougalls had no children. At the Paschedag undertaking estab- lishment it was said that MacDougall was a friend and fellow lodge member of William F. Pascherag and frequently visited the undertaker's office. It was} said that no one there had known of his being despondent or of any reason he may have had for taking his life.

Bezner of Detroit Gets From Jerseyville the Chair He Used to Use. The bootblack chair before which Fred O. Bezner used to kneel, as he polished the shoes of customers in a Jerseyville barber shop, has been sent to take an honored place in Bezner’s home in De- troit, where he is now shining as one of the leading automobile men of the motor metropolis. He is secretary of the Hudson Motor Car Co., and at the ags of 33, is reputed in Detroit to be @ man of wealth. The disappearance of the chair from its accustomed place, in Frank Miller’s |: barber shop in Jerseyville, has set the people of the Illinois county seat to talking of Bezner’s remarkable rise from | poverty to his present prosperity and trominence. Romantic as areths facts, there are those among Bezner’s old as- sociates who say they always knew the boy would distinguish himself, and that, | if the rapid growth of the automobile industry had not given him his chance, he would have found a chance some- where else. Considering the usual] re- marks made about a successful man by those who “knew him when,” this speaks pretty well for Bezner. Was Bootblack After School. Fred O. Bezner was born in Jersey- ville Sept. 3, 1879. His father, Frederick Bezner, was a florist, and the demand for flowers was not sufficient to afford. him a comfortable living. So the boy, before and after school hours; used to shine shoes in Miller Bros. barber shop. He continued this work while he went through ths High School, and.then he drew from the bank the money he had saved from his $6 a week eariings, and went to Chicago. He took a six weeks’ business college course in five weeks, and then worked as a clerk, first-in the Illinois Central Railroad offices, then with the Goodrich Transportation Co. Two years later he went to Dayton O., to work for the National Cash Reg- ister Co. In 1902 he removed to De- troit, entering the employment of « brass and copper works. He left this place when the automobile business be- gan to reveal its possibilities for an en. ergetic young man. 3 He first was associated with the Olds people, and established there his repu- tation as a buyer. Today he is known to automobile men as one of the best purchasing agents in the country. Six years ago he took part in the forma- tion of the E. R. Thomas Motor Co.. and later he was one of the organizers of the Chalmers Motor Co. He was a stockholder in the Chalmers concern, and when its head bought his holdings. Bezner joined J. L. Hudson. R. D. Cha- pin and H, E. Coffin in forming the Hudson Motor Car Co, Automobile men say that in 1911 Bez- |

Until six years ago, his mother, who was only 18 years older than he, lived at his home. She was killed by a street car in 1906. Joseph Miller, one of his former em- ployers in Jerseyville, is now well es- tablished tn the barber business in De- troit, while Frank Miller runs the Jer- seyville shop. Two of Joe Miller’s sons are employed in Bezner’s motor factory Joe and his sons are often guests at Bezner’s home. Not only has Bezner obtained his old bootblack chair, but he still has the brush which his vigorous arm used to propel over the toes and heels of Jer- seyville men, Recently he went on a vacation tour, and he is now in Ger- many, his father’s native country. i

He re- fused to pay me. “I saw him again, and he asked for four hours fn which to settle. I tendered & quitclaim deed, which my attorneys say is the only kind of a deed I can make under existing conditions. “As the case now stands, I will lose $800 by not accepting the City’s offer of “I did not engage the law firm of Haberman to represent me in the trial. I suppose Scherrer did that. In fact, I never saw Mr.’ Haberman in any matter pertaining to the case until it came up in court.” The contract between Latinette and Scherrer containe a guaranty by Pros- per J.

Glover was hauling the dynamite through the town. His team became frightened and as they ran away the dynamite and a qypantity of fuse and percussion caps bounced about in the wagon. He expected to be blown to pieces, but the fact that the dynamite was frozen is believed to have saved it from 4x- ploding.

“MAMMA, DID SANTA CLAUS FORGET ME?” Christmas morn. T HE most pathetic and forlorn picture in all Christendom is the home forgotten by Santa Claus on Can grief be more poignant than that of the child who awakes to find a stocking empty, or can life seem more bitter to anyone than to the mother who,knows that while thousands of other children are happy and joyous hers are suffering the deepest disappointment heart can know? The faith of the child in the coming of Santa Claus igs one of the sweetest things in human experience and memory. The little one asking if these wonderful things are for it, stabs the héart that knows her baby and the miracle of love that enfolds the world on the natal day who comes lisping to its mother when rumors of Santa Claus and Christmas fill its little Lite, the wall poverty has built between of the Christ. While she smilingly reassures her child that Santa Claus comes to all good little children she knows what disappointment is likely to greet it Christmas morning. For 13 years the Post-Dispatch Festival has provided for those who otherwise would have to do without Christmas dinner, toys and other joys of the season. If you contribute to the Post-Dispatch Christmas Festival Fund, you will be the cause of these trusting babes. enjoying tyjir Christmas dinner at the Coliseum,the little toy that, to him is wonderful and splendid, the excitement of going to a Christmas party, with the ride on the street car there and back home again, the 2 music, the e sight of Santa Claus, the thought that, after all, they are not forgotten. ——

will be in store for some of the poor children of St. Louls. They may find that Santa Claus has not only not come to them, but they have not been in- vited to come to see him at the Coli- seum. The managers of the Christmas Fes- tival want every poor child in St. Louis to have a share of a Christmas joy at the Coliseum on Christmas day. This will not be possible unless the fund is made large enough to provide for all. No child who looks forward with eager- ness to the Christmas Festival should be disappointed. A contribution today will help to make that impossible. Abundance of Toys, There will be an abundance of toys for the boys and girls and the babies. The Gift Committee of the Festival Fund of which James A. Reardon, pres- ident of the Reardon Glue Co., is chair- man, is now negotiating for the pur- pose of these joyous articles. His budget will include: 3000 Dolls. 2100 Pocket knives, 2100 Picture books, 2000 Story books. 7200 Tin horns. 2400 Rubber balls. 600 Pacifiers. - 9000 Packages of candy. John D. Tellman, commissary of the Jefferson and Planters Hotels, is ar- ranging to purchase food suplies for the monster dining room and kitchens at the Coliseum. There will be roast tur- key, pies and fruits, vegetables and all the good things that are provided in the homes of the well-to-do on Christmas day. ' ROF. FREDERICK A. HALL, Washington University, writes: “I take pleasure in enclosing my check for $3 toward your excellent scheme for giving a good time to the poor.” John I. B. McCulloch and Robert Pax- ton McCulloch of 4394 Westminster place are two little boys who are going to have a merry Christmas because they have eaeh contributed $2.50 toward giv- ing other little boys @ merry Christ- mas. The Missouri Pacific Railway Freight Traffic Department, in forwarding $21.3 contributed by employes, requests that the individual names be omitted. The Gauss-Langenberg Hat Co. has gent its check for $10. Every day generous contributions are received from persons who prefer not to make themselves known. They are content if only they can have the per- sonal satisfaction of knowing they have done something toward making Christ- mas merry for the children of the poor.

QL OLD AGE DEFERRED Echo From the Medico-Legal society A few generations back a man at 50 was considered old, gray-bearded, and waiting. for death.- Note the change today; at a meeting of the Medico-Legal Society it was stated that a man of 50 ought to have 40 good years ahead of him and, thus at 90 be in the fulness of maturity. What if you have seen 60, or even 70 birthdays—temperate habits, fresh air and exercise, with a simple diet and a sufficient amount of

PRINCETON, N. J., Dec. 18.—The | Princeton University Triangle Club has now triumphantly opened its musical- dramatic season of 1912-1913 with a bril- liant production of its new original op- eretta, “Once in a Hundred Years,”’ which will be seen at the Odeon in St. Louis on Wednesday evening, Dec. 25. The premicre presentation was made before members of the university facuil- ty, their families and invited guests. The operetta’s story was written by John A. Larkin, ’13, president of the club, an.i Charles D. Orth, ’13, editor of the college funny paper, the Tiger. The lyrics, humorous and sentimental, also are by Mr. Orth. The music was com- posed largely by F. H. Dyckman, ’14; J. M. Beck, 14, and D. D. Griffin, "15, and is said to be unusually tuneful: Eu- gene Sanger, who was made an honor- ary member of the club several years ago, stayes the production. He has long been responsible for the success of these annual Frinceton entertainments. Clever Story and Songs. The story’s scenes are laid in the ban- queting hall of an old feudal castle in the north of England. The plot deals with the cmbarrassing predicament of a party of Americans who, renting an ancient estate for the summer, sudden- ly behold the portraits of the castle’s former cwners step from their frames, these incignant materialized spirits in- stantly ordering the American vandals put in chains. Many peculiarly effective and humorcus scenes have been devel- oped from such a complication, and the musical score is in keeping with the quaint story. Quite a number of Princeton students are frequited to play feminine roles, it having been the Princetonian rule for nearly 30 years that no girl shall ap- pear in a Triangle cast, the college not being co educational, and these imper- sonations are declared to be uncommon- ly clever. The “girl contingent’’ is headed by H. P. Elliott, a junior, who for the past two seasons has figured as one of the best “girls’’ the Triangle Club has ever presented to an unsus- pecting public. Elliott now appears as leading lady of ‘“The people of the Pres- ent,’’ and second only to him in “girl- ish’? beauty and charm is H. N. du Bar.- ry, who is the ingenue of “‘The People of the Past.’’ Among the new play's song-hits are “Ghosts,” “In the Days of Glee,’’ “It’s a’ in the Garne,’’ “The Russian Ballet Rag’ and “Sailing on the Sea of Love.”’ The plot, however, is by no means in- cidental to the musical numbers, but both dialogue and music contribute to the success of the production. HORSE, RESCUED DRAGS MAN BACK INTO FLAMES Meiners’ Livery Employe Burned —Five Horses Killed—Dam- age Estimate $10,000. One man was injured and five horses were burned to death in a fire which Tu2sday night destroyed the building at 1100 Cass avenue, occupied by the Meiners Livery an¢C Undertaking Co. The loss is estimated at $10,000. Eugene Murphy of 1812 O’Fallon street discovered the fire, and with Henry Ort- bal, employed by the company, at- tempted to rescue the horses. Murphy zot one horse into the alley, but the animal broke away from him and ran back into the burning building. A horse dragged Ortbal into the flames, and he was burned about the head. Three carriages, an automobile hearse, six buggies, a wagon, an automobile ambulance, and an automobile runabout were burned. Herman and Alfred Meiners, owners of the company, “were at a theater with their families at the time of the fire. Herman Ms3iners’ living rooms above the company’s offices were damaged by smoke and water. 8 BOYS BURNED BY BLAST OF POWDER THEY LIGHT Explosive Taken From Quarry Tears Great Hole and Shocks Lads.

The effort of Mrs. Mary Jones, 2020 Wash street, to catch a negro lead pipe burglar, failed about 3 p. m, Tuesday, because the negro threatenea her with a knife. Mrs. Jones saw the negro emerging from the vacant house at 422 Wash street and sought to stop him. He flour- ished the weapon and ordered her to stand back.

for Helena, Ark., 82 miles away. The trip was uneventful until the approach of darkness. Then came a most bril- liant sunset. The shimmer of the water, reflecting the variegated colors of the sky, intensified by th speed with which the different color schemes were ap- proached and passed as they broke through the rifts in the trees, produced a kaleidoscopic effect. At the height of our artistic raptures, there came an aw- ful silence from the engine, and we flopped into the water, one and one-half miles from Helena and no gasoline, We had then got into the heart of the black belt. From there on, our approach would blacken the levees, 10 negroes be- ing seen to one white person. Old negroes and young ones showed their fears and superstitions wy the awe and reverence with which they looked at us. One. negro barber: was so overcome by the honor of shaving one of the “angels” that he nearly cut my throat. We left Arkansas City Saturday aft- ernoon, Dec. 7, climbing high and re- maining in sight for 10 minutes. We filled at Greenville, Miss, and made Lake Providence, La, 144 miles, tn 142 minutes. This time, however, deducts: the time taken in exploring Grand Lake, We flew half a mile overiand to get into this lake and enjoyed our first view of the cypress swamps and Spanish moss.

TELLS OF CARING FOR 49 PATIENTS Miss Boehme Had That Many in Charge When Mrs. Gordon Leaped to Death.

City hospital nurses, testifying Wednesday at the inquest into the death of Mrs. Clara Gordon, who jumped early Tuesday from a fifth-story window at the hospital, said that one nurse had under her care 50 women patients, sev- eral of whom needed special watching. At the time Mrs. Gordon jumped from, the window, Miss Dorothy Boehme, a, nurse, said she had 4 patients under her care. Deputy Coroner Fath drew from her, a statement that in case patients be- came unruly she could get assistance only. by ‘telephoning the night superin- tendent, and that several minutes would Warned of Mra. Miss Boehme said that ‘Tosobew night was the first time she had had a night detail, and that she was assigned to Ward K50. She said K20 was crowded that night and the nurse from that ward brought her four patients, including Mrs. Gordon, The nurse told her none of them needed special watching except Mrs. Gordon, who had acted queerly. She told that she passed Mrs. Gor- don’s bed severa] times during the night and that each time Mrs. Gordon seemed to be sleeping. She saw her at 4:30 a. m. and then went into a dressing room |: across @ hall. She had been in the room two or three minutes, she said, when a patient called to her that another pa- tient had opened a window. She hurried into the room, found Mrs. Gordon’s bed unoccupied and the window open. On the ground she saw Mrs. Gordon's body. In reply to questions by Fath, she said she had 49 patients to care for, and that she was the only nurse on night duty in the wari. “Suppose several patients became un-

We ought all to take our places in the great organi- zation and work of the world. “You know money doesn’t mean every- thing; in fact, very little in some cases, ‘for the full value of it is not gained. Take the sons of some rich men; their money is squandered in drinking and otherwise. “Sometimes a poor man is far and away better off than a rich man. I watch my men. I know the lives of many. That doesn’t mean only the men who are close about me, but the men in my plant. Some with only a moderate salary are far happier than men to whom the worth of a bank means no more than a box of cigars in value to _the ordinary person. ‘Because a man has money that does not make him any better. Perhaps it would be better if all men were equal in wealth; still, if that Utopian condi- tion were brought about, there would be some in the world that would corral the dollars of the others and we would / come back to the conditions of the pres- ent day. “But let me tell you something right here.

ARMOUR LOSES IN ASSESSMENT SUIT SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Dec. 18.—~The Supreme Court handed down a de- cision affecting the collection of taxes. and penalties on $168,000,000 worth of property, held by a number of the heaviest property owners in Cook County. The suit was brought by Frank W. Jones to compel the board of review of Cook County, in which Chicago is situated, to assess personal property that had been omitted from the as- sessments from 1905 to 1910. He filed a list of 66 owners of such property with a list 8f the stocks and bonds owned by him. Among the number was J. Ogden Armour and other mil- lfonaires. Some of the largest amounts of stock involved in the list filed by Jones in 1910 are: J. Ogden Armour, $32,119,700: Ed- ward Morris, $39,919,700; Joy Mor- ton, $6,600,000; Arthur Meeker, $5,370,- 000; John J. Mitchell, $4,020,000: Lovis F. Swift, $6,129,000; E. F. Swift, 86,- 036,000; B.

To the Hditor of the Post-Dispatch. x. Mr. B. C. Edmonds advocates the passage of &/| § x D cry ae ae | Pte i rie law prohibiting the issuance of insurance to au- | - BRS we: be! pe pn ms | ree! ve tomobile owners against personal injury. The. Se > x “ . ” a? Oe . *ee™ eye Question at issue seems to be whether os apt the issuance of Mability insurance protection t& oF. is not against public policy. The courts ef this State have held that it is not. It was contended that the issuance of Mability insurance policies on factories resulted in the employer becoming lax as to the safety of his employes, for the reason ~~ he was free from loss financially as @ result of accidents. As a matter of fact, it was shown that thousands of accidents were being prevented yearly as a result of the rigid inspection service being maintained by the companies writing this class of insurance. Not only are the insurance companies exercising this close inspection service on automobiles in Missouri, but they are cd-operating with the Po- lice Department for the preventing any careless driver of an automobile from obtaining insurance. Mr. Edmonds would be surprised if he knew how many owners cf automobiles in Bt. Louls cannot obtain insurance, because of their own records as operators of automobiles, and how many other Owners have been compelled to discharge drivers in order to maintain insurance fn force. Mr. £4- monds can ascertain from Chief Young of the Police Department the extent of the close work- ing arrangement between the companios and the department in the form of weekly reporte to the companies of the names of undesirable operators from an insurance standpoint. It can be shown that most of the accidents oo- cur while the automobile is being driven by per- sons other than the owner and frequently with- out the consent of the owner. It seems, therefore, unfair to undertake to deprive the owner of pro- tection against financial loss resulting from the carelessness of a driver over whom he has no oon- trol. It is hardly necessary to say that the hired driver is not concerned in the financial loss of his employer; meaning that the question of whether or not his employer is insured, would not in any way affect his manner of operating the car. In view of the fact that the situation has been canvassed and the conclusion arrived at, that the prevention of accidents could not, in any manner, be affected by the question of ‘insurance, {t would seém a very unwise thing for Missouri to enact rabid legislation which could be of no benefit te the general public and which would seriously im- pair the automobile industry, which is certainly cne that must be recognized now as one of the substantial businesses of the State. In my opinion, there is only one cure for the situation and that is, police court judges should be empowered to inflict a jail or workhouse sen- tence On a careless operator of an automobile, and this without giving them the privilege of escaping imprisonment by paying a fine. The automobile owners may think that this is rather severe, but it is the only way, in my opinion, that accidents can be stopped which are the result of the carelessness of the driver. I make this state- ment, notwithstanding the fact that I own and cperate two automobiles, one personally and the other through a paid driver. 21.46 ‘ 7” x ~ % oe Ph se \. a + ad % " a Nig ie re ~ FR -. } y - - o . a : bas t. : ot eee a4 ae > . ; ; : %--4 - fer eS: more inexcusable from the fact ‘preserving the fine, demo-} is conceded to entitle it) i+.

A penal institution of notable success is the De- troit House of Correction. In 33 years it has paid a net profit to that city of $1,000,000 over and above all costs for maintenance and improve- ments. In addition, a part of the earnings of in- ‘dividual convicts is devoted to the support of de- pendent relatives. Sentimentality has not been permitted to affect the strictness of its discipline. “The practical penology it exemplified was such that it stood high in the Department of Justice’s list of ap-

eral prisoners were sent before the institutions at Leavenworth and Atlanta were built. ‘After a connection with this prison for 28 years, during 13 of which he was Warden, John L. Mc- Donald sums up in the following his experience with some of the country’s most desperate and confirmed offenders: Predn is the last place to which a judge should send a criminal. It should be the last resort. No man knows for a ; eertatinty whether he would be able to stand the tests that caused | the fall of the men now behind the bars. | Im most cases criminals should be given every chance under parole before they are sent to a penal institution. The State has no right to imprison a man and take from him every cent he earns. The great majority of criminals are re- eruited from the ranks of the homelesa and jobless. Such testimony should assist in removing the misgivings with which not a few still regard mod- ern reclumation methods, including the parole system, The idea of far too many is that. the 9 ti Lue law is not vindicated until some-

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, The newspapers of St. Louls are always roast- ing East St. Louls, Belleville and Alton, but they are far ahead of St. Louis in heating and ventilat- ing their street cars. I notice Mr. McCulloch has made numerous tests upon heating and ventilat- ing apparatus. The Ladies’ Friday Club should have invited him to take a trip on one of the cars going across the bridge to Alton or Belle- ville an‘ no further tests would be required. On cold days when you ride several miles in a St Louls street car and then change cars to the bridge cars going to the above cities, it is like getting off of the Slow Molasses Line in Arkansas and getting into a Pullman car, I would suggest that the club ladies and Mr. McCulloch take a trip on some cold day across the bridge and we will give them some pointers how to ventilate and heat cars.

The one absolutely sure conclusion of modern medietne is that disease never originates de novo and that cases of contagious diseases always take their rise from preceding cases. There is no spontaneous origin of life, and diffusable disease ts due to living germs. Sewage becomes, then, the possible source of disease, and must not be neglected. It is costly to dispose of it properly, but the cost !s more than eounterbalanced by the easily calculable money value of life and health to many people. When it waa first proposed to institute sewer- age systems the expense seemed to be an abso- lutely prohibitive factor. Now even small towns know that it pays. When Berlin found that the two little rivers, the Havel and the Spree, becamé sources of disease because blocked with sewage the growing city made other arrangements, and her sewage farms are one of the sanitary lessons of the world. New York has come to the time when even the abundant waters of our rivers and harbor cannot be counted on to absorb the city’s sewage without danger to those who live near or work on our water front. We must look to some sewage dis- posal system to help solve the problem. Recent discussions by experts show that the solution may even be easy and not expensive. New York's citi- gens must be ready to recognize the necessity we are under of not further polluting our waters ard of making sewage absolutely harmless be- fore trusting it to the vicissitudes of tides and winds.

LOGARITHMS VS. TOBACCO. | With the highest regard for the mem- ory of Napier of Merchiston and aill the other Napiers, a race of genius, many of us will look with a scowling eye upon the proposed tercentenary com- memoration of the invention of loga- rithms. They have done much for man- kind no doubt, and since Napier’s loga- rithms are no longer used we might forgive him and transfer to old Briggs, whoever he was, or the non-Napierian inventor of the so-called Napierian sea rithms, that undying hatred of loga- rithms and their makers which our own and many another green unknowing youth cherishes. Does anybody honor the tercentenary or whatever it ts of the discoverer of smoking tobacco? There was @ man or a god who did as much for the happiness of the race as the logarithm man or devil for its confusion and befuddlement.

COCAINE’S PHYSICAL EFFECTS. from the New York Tribune. Speaking of the effect of cocaine on those addicted to the habit, one of the medical authorities of the De- partment of Health said yesterday: “The so-called ‘dope fiends’ suffer from intense nervousness when under the influence of cocaine. They have an indescribable feeling of optimism and feel very brilliant. They really are sometimes brilliant when under its spell, and have unlimited conver- sational powers. Even their friends are prone to think them bright. “Cocaine has not the tendency of morphine to lower the moral senses tu any great extent. I[t works havoc with the constitution, especially the digestive organs.” While gpium causes a desire for sleep, cocaine has just the opposite effect. It causes a wild exhilara- tion.”

The difference be- tween Greece and the other allies is that whereas the others had their men on the Turkish frontier, all ready to charge, the soldiera of Greece were for the most part abroad, and could not get there short of a few weeks’ notice. It would scarcely be fair to Granite City, for instance, te call the war off before the 60 Greeks en route from the steel milis can get en the scéne, These men are entitled to a shot at a Turk. They have traveled thousands of miles te get it, and they ought to have it. Anything else would be even more brutal than the Turk himself.

For the next few days the old gentle- man was under a cloud, and almost wished he had remained under water. The child had contracted a cold, which developed into bronchitis, and, to add to their misfortunes, the eldest grand- daughter, on the Wednesday, while at- tempting to escape from a discussion of grancpa’s water rights, fell down- stairs, severely spraining an ankle. Things, seemed to be coming to a cri- sis in the family, and those who had hitherto escaped injury seriously con- sidered if suicide was sinful under the circumstances. They had nearly all aversion to the well water, when one morning the small grandson was found choking, and it was only after great difficulty that. one of grandfather's ci- gars (lost down the well and brought up in a bucket) was dislodged from the boy’s throat.

By ARTHUR BENINGTON. HE terrifying experience of the young woman related above is not at all without precedent. The disease—for disease it really is— that caused it is well known to physi- cians under the name of amnesia. -It may come to any man. Suppose that you awake some morning and find yourself in a strange room. The wall paper. and the pictures are un- familiar, the furniture is foreign. You get out of bed and see a strange bureau in an unaccustomed place. Upon it are photographs of faces you can not recog- nize. “Where am I?” you ask yourself. ‘‘And how did I get here?’ A woman enters and addresses you fa- miliarly and affectionately. Her face is that of a total stranger. Embarrassed, you ask a few questions, which bring a look of astonishment to her eyes and words of amazement to her lips. She evidently knows you well and can not believe that you do not know her. There are children at the door calling! “Good morning, daddy.’’ They, too, are strangers to you, but it is quite evident that you are no stranger to them. Your indignant protests are met with tears. These people evidently think you have gone out of your mind. “Am I dreaming? Am I crazy or am I in a house full of lunatics?’ you ask. “This woman certainly thinks she is my wife; the children as certainly believe me to be their father.”’ They persuade you to ress.

The mall arrives. Letters are handed to you, addressed to the same strange name as those in the pockets of the strange clothes you have put on; their postmarks show the date is as on the newspaper. The name on the envelopes is “John Jones.”’ “But I am not John Jones,’’ you cry. ‘‘Who are you, then?’ they ask. “Who am I?” you echo. A wave of uncertainty flows across your mind and in fear you repeat: “Who am I?” but this time| you ask it of yourself. There can scarcely be a more terri- fying thought than the doubt expressed in the self-posed question: “Who am eg Yet many fn man has had to ask it under circumstances, if not identical in detail with those supposed above, at least as maddening.

The shaded parts are those that receive and store up impressions; the dotted parts, called motor centers, are those that send out the messages. Memory seems to be distributed all over the surface of the brain, for no one seat of memory has been dis- covered.—Adapted from the Encycloy tical jokes of a tired or worried mem- ory. ‘ HERE is a young man in prison on Governor's Island, N. Y., who «n- derwent this experience a few weeks ago, if his story is to be believed. He is Lieut. Earle N. Chant of the Eleventh Infantry, U. S. A. A page covering | several weeks of his Hfe was suddenly torn out. He cannot remember what be did or where he was during that time. When informed that he had left iis wife and children at Fort Russell, Cheyenne, Wyo., come to New ‘York, lived rioctously in the Tenderloin and forged the name of his paymaster to a heck, he was astounded. He remembers leaving the army post early in August, but from that moment until his arrest in New York in September everything is a blark. During thoge weeks that he cannot re- member was he somebody else? Had he forgotten his life as an army officer? Did he ever doubt his personality, ask- ing -himself that frightful question: “Who Anrl?” If he did, he cannot re- member, for of his thoughts as well as of his actions in those weeks he has no recollection. There is a man in the New Jersey asked himself that question a thousa times. And he has answered it at la to his own satisfaction, but his answe_ is wrong. He has made up his befud- dled mind that he is “John Doe.” His wife, his sons, his friends know that he is Mark W. Harrington. It is true he has once or twice answered to the name wher doctors and nurses have addressed him as Harrington, but that has been done subconsciously, the habit of a life- time being for the moment stronger than the conviction of the mind. HE personality of Mark W. Har- rinzzton was made up of memories of study in colleges and universities, of a professorship at Pekin, China, of the presiden.:y of a university,-~of work done in meteorolegy, of years spent as Chief of the United States Weather Bureau, of political warfare with President Clevelani, of a sudden fall from his high office and of years of struggle to maintain a family and educate his sons. Such was the mass of experiencés that made this man able to say “I am Mark Harrington.” All this has gone. The man who sits in his clair in the asylum reading Cicero, Virgil, Horace, remembers noth- ing of the university career and the work in the Weather Bureau that won fame for Mark Harrington. They speak to him about it and he smiles incredu- lousiy. “I am John Doe,” he says. He ceased to be Mark Harrington one night in 1899 after leaving his home in Mount Vernon to attend a dinner in New York. For eight years Mark Har- ringtom ceased to exist, save in the memories of his friends. All this time the man who had been Mark Harring- ton was wandering about the world, doing all sorts of strange things. He revisited China, was a tramp in the Southern States, worked beside negroes on cotton plantations, was a lumber- man and a worker in a shipyard and staked out a claim in the State of Washingion. Once in Chicago he had a lucid interval that lasted long enough for him to give an intelligent interview to the Chicago newspapers. But then the doubt re- turned like a mist, obscuring the pages of his memory, settling down like a pall over his past -until it blotted out even the name of the book. Then he asked madly: ““Who am I?” And when his wife and son found him in the insane asylum they were total strangers to him. He had answered the question wrong. He was John Doe. And John Doe he is today. In his case the doubt had driven him mad. But cases in which there is no madness are almost as common. For example, George Scott of Vancouver, State Asylum for the Insane who has vedia Britannica. a broken skull to the startling realiza- tion that several years of his early life had been erased from his memory for more than a quarter of a century. They came back to him now in a flash, as if the cracking of his skull had broken the seal of a cupboard in his mind and revealed the long-hidden contents. He |called his wife of two years to him and told her that 27 years ago he had left a wife and family in Scotland and came to America to make his fortune. CHANDLER ROGERS of New York awoke in a hospital in Seattle on Oct. 10, 1911, after his skull had been trepanned to remove the bone that was pressing: on his brain. He thought he was in New York, for the last thing he remember was being pulled out of the river into which he had been thrown by thugs who had blackjacked and robbed him. They brought him a news- paper, from which he learned where he was and that 14 years had elapsed since that assault in New York. But these 14 years were to him as if they had not been. The nurses addressed him as George Kelly. For a while he lay and wondered, asking himself that fatal question: ‘““‘Who am 1?” But this time it was quickly answered. Though he had for 14 years wpbeen Kelly he knew he was not Kelly ut Rogers. In these cases only a part of the ex- periences of life had been blotted out. The results of education—ability to speak and read, for example—remained. In the case of the Rev. Thomas C. Hanna of New York, the entire book of life was hermetically sealed by a blow on the head received in falling from a trolley car. The learned clergy- man was suddenly reduced to the con- dition of a new-born baby. He knew no one. He could not speak. He couli not even chew food. They began at the beginning with him, teaching him tv walk, to talk, to read. He learned rap- idly. Though he had never known mu- sic he learned to play the scons well in two weeks. As suddenly as it had gone, his minc returned after four months. But the pages that had been added to the book in those four months were forever sealed. | Y., wife and mother. been able to unlock the cupboard in her mind in which are stored the rec- ords of that year.

J. writes: “A young man puts e off marrying me because he says he must sign certain papers connected with his mother’s estate while he is single. She died two years ago. Do you think he is telling me the truth or just doesn’t want to marry me?” The only way to judge is by his gen- eral attitude toward you. Conduct in Society. GNORANCE writes: “At tha time I should have entered society, I was} kept a recluse from all social affairs by three years of illness.. I £m well again and able to go out tn society, but I am too seif-conscious to enjoy myself. I do not know what to say, or how ‘os act.

Clothing, jewelry and money have been taken, most of the things having been stolen from the women’s mail room and locker room in University Hall.

CATAPULT TO LAUNCH | U. S. HYDROAEROPLANES Naval Officers Believe Problém of Flight From Decks Is Solved. WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—As the result of experiments with a catapult launch- ing device, naval officers today believe the problem. of successfullly launching hydroaeroplanes from the decks of bat- tleships has been solved. The experi- ments have been carried on at the Washington navy yard by Lieut. Theo- dore G. Ellyson, U. 8S. N., and his dem- onstration is being applauded by offi- clals of the Navy Department. The launching device is the invention of Capt. W. R. Chambers, head of the navy aviation squad, and is operated by compressed air. The apparatus is sim- ple and can be affixed to a revolving gun turret within 30 minutes, after which the turret can be turned to throw the flying machine into the wind. On returning from -its light,- the hydro- aeroplane would settle in the sea along- side its parent ship and be hoisted aboard. Naval attaches of England, Germany Russia, France and Italy have been in- terested observers of the tests. The various governments also have asked directly for information as to the type and operation of. the catapult.

Some of the stolen hardware was left on the counters of the Schwartzberg dry goods, paing and wall paper store, which the robbers next entered. Several boxes of hosiery and some neckties were taken from Schwartzberg’s, and the eash regis- ter was emptied of $19.48.

In reply to the Bow Street Magistrate, she declared that if she possessed a “hundred millions, she wouldn’t pay a penny,” and was thereupon sent to prison. 7

He has succeeded in wringing more advertising space for himself and his club from hewspapers that despise him than all] the other owners combined. Oh, yes, Murphy is “not responsible.” But were he anybody else, he would

be conceded to be a pretty shrewd sort of a highbinder. ° ° . CHARLES MAY BE RIGHT. T is possible, therefore, that Murphy may Once more be right in the Chance affair. His contention that base- ball players should sign a non-intoxi- cant contract is certainly fair, if strict. His criticisms of the peerless leader have been based on facts that can be proven, in many instances. And his proposal to clean out malcontents from his club is surely to be commended. . o e CUBS STILL DANGEROUS? ET the Oubs are already being as- signed to a lower berth in the 1918 race by the Comiskey-crazed exploiters of Chicago. As Murphy himself says, it's hard to point out where his team has suffered since 1912. The club looks better for the switches that have been made and the real baseball factors of the League, men like McGraw and Clarke, still figure the dangerous rival. @qand pounded Grover so hard in three | great.

NOT A LOVEABLE CHARACTER. HARLES WEBB is not a character on whose neck hordes of admirers will ever be waiting to fall. But one simply must admit some intelligence in one who succeeds where others fail. “Pop” Anson, Hart and other exper- fenced baseball men failed with the ma- terials that Murphy ran up into big money earners. It’s enough said, as evidence, in these days where material results are the measure of brains. os * = ; A MAN OF CLASS. P OUNT ten on Carl Morris as a lily white hope. When he failed to stop a steenth rater like Al Kubiak he showed sufficient lack of class to dro him into the Sandy Ferguson division, which is bounded on the top by all the divisions above Z, and on the bottom by *‘and so forth’ sign. Furthermore, Carl Broke through the concrete bcttom of the heavyweight division by staging knockout shows with his sparring part- ner. This is a sad commentary on the de- cline of Carl. When he started out in the fight game he was a poor but proud engineer. Now he stoops to the petty tricks of the bush league tricksters. Sapulpa for yours, Carl. The only ring that calls you is that of the switch engine. A NEW LIGHTWEIGHAT STAR. J ACK McGUIGAN of Philadelphia may have. the essentials of a real lightweight. champion in Sam Robideau, the ex-navy star, who put away Grover H&yes in the third round of a recent bout at Philadelphia. Grover is a good little fighter. Like Maty Baldwin he has become a sort of trial horse for future champions. He has globe-trotted in search of fights and has seldom had cause to doubt what decision the ref- eree would hand down. Robideau dropped out of a clear sky rounds that they stopped the fight. Robideau has beaten half a dozen third-rate Philadelphians. These bouts and some inconsequentia] victories over naval scrappers constitute his fighting record. Yet he has won his battles easily and may own the makings of a future Anyhow, who can stop Hayes will enlist attention, even though he may have had a swing in the weights and caught Hayes out of condition.

SUGCER LEADERS UNABLE TO AGREE ON BiG SCHEDULE Innisfails and Leos Refuse to. Se- lect Holiday Dates and Will Fight It Out Sunday. ae oe The keen rivalry which exists be- tween the leaders of the Athletic Park soccer teams was emphasized when a special meeting aws held Tuesday even- ing to arrange the holiday schedule with the Eastern elevens. An effort was made at this meeting to have the 8&t. Leos and Innisfails, the present lead- ers, select their dates, but the effort fell flat. ' Both teams decided to fight it out in Sunday’s double bill wherein the cham- pion St. Leos tackle the Columbus Club and the Innisfails buck the Business Ri Men's A. C. If they still are deadlocked, they propose to draw for the holiday dates. Weaker Teams Get Chance, It was decided Tuesday evening, though, to let the Columbus Club and Business Men’s A. C. teams, which are tied for third place, furnish the Satur- day opposition for the West Hudsons and Howard-Bulloughs. Originally it was decreed that picked teams should play the visitors on Saturdays. How- ever, the recent good showing of the tail-enders prompted the league officials to let the Knights and Jai Alai boys go to the post intact. That the Eastern teams will not be at a disadvantage by playing in St. Louis is the opinion expressed by those who should know. None of the local players are familiar with the lay of the land at Sportsman's Park, where the games will be played. It's an even break all around. > Boxing Talk Over Plan to Put Up * * Bill to Legislature 8 ng news editors and reporters for the local dailies were the guests Tuesday even- ing at an elaborate dinner served at the Jef- ferson Hotel by the directors of the Future City Athletic Club, the baby member ef the local boxing. colony. President Tommy Sul- livan of the new Pine -street organization presided, ably assisted by Marion Lambert, whose financial assistance has already made the Future City club a success, _ It was the purpose of those assembled to discuss boxing from all angles. Harry Sharpe, the Post-Dispatch boxing authority, told at length what the game needed and didn’t need, laying special emphasis on the fact that it was now af opportune time to ask the State Legislature to legalize the manly art of self-defense. _ Mal Doyle of the Star, ¥. Marion Parker of the Globe, Dick Collins of the Republic, Sid Keener of the Times and Walter Lavine, matehmaker of the St. Louls A. C. also had their say. “We want to work in harmony with al) other clubs, both in arranging dates and in the selection of boxers for our shows,'’ de- olare4d Tommy Sullivan. That was the spirit which prevailed and Mr. Lavine came back at Sullivan with the same statement. Much Lappiness!

Herrmann Hasn’t Released Chance; May Be Hitch in Big Deal CINCINNATI, Ohio, Dec. 18.—That there is a hitch in the much talked of arrangement by which Frank Chance, former manager of the Chi- cago National League Club, would become manager of the New York American team became known here today when President August Herr- mann of the Cincinnati club stated that he had not released Chance.

YOUNG JACK O'BRIEN IS MUSSED UP BY DUFFY BUFFALO, N. Y., Deo. 18—Jimmy Duffy of Lockport proved the biggest surprise Young Jack O’Brien ever encountered tn a Mashing 10-round bout under Queensberry Athietic Club auspices last night. Duffy actually carried the battle to O’Brien and scored re- peatediy with straight left and a hard right encounter. Duffy mussed Young Jack up more than he had been in many a bout, doing his greatest damage in the infighting, Jack Hogan of Philadelphia and Cy Fiynn fought a draw and Young Henry of Phila- delphia was even up with Herman Smith. ee. se The Case ef Olson, ‘Then there's Emory Olson.

He's been out fer two sea- song, but he’s only a Kid and he may surprise scomebody. He surprised me when he declared his intention of re- turning to the game. Anyhow, these two men deserve watching.” Olson’s determination to break back into the national game presents a pe- culilar angle of baseball which the fans in their mad desire to pan the mag- nates often overlook. Col. Hedges won Olson in the draft. He was the star of the Louisville team, and Billy Grayson, then a magnate, had refused 96500 for him. That was a big price four years ago. However, Grayson had won a pen- nant and decided to stand “pat."’ Olson Obtained for $1000, But Hedges enared Olson for the @raft price of $1000 and was the happiest man weat of the Alleghenies. Then Olson biew a tire and quit the race. Hedges’ giee turned to gloom. He was out just 1000 kopecks, with no chance to recuperate hie lose.

Some of the replies received follow: Dishonor Should Lasting Congress Not Retreat. To the Editor of the New York World.

To the EFditer of the New York Wort PALO ALTO, Cal., Dec. a By al! means amend an act to make it free to all, or free to none. It is wretched statesmanship to violate a treaty or even to appear to do so, and wretched policy to grant ship subsidy in such form, needlessly creating a new privi- unfit for work next day. The vote was 108 to 45 to abolish Kelly pool, bowling end billiards. New York World to the presidents of the principal American wuniver- sities and colleges reveal an over- whelming serztiment among the educators of the coumtry in favor of either amending promptly the Pana- ma Canal Tolis Act, which is pro- tested dy Great Britain as a violation of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, or submitting the question to arbitra- tion.

The Post-Dispatch is the only evening 1ewspaper in St. Louis that receives or publishes news gathered by the Asso- clated Press. of our building it at public cost. By the terms of our treaty of 1908, with Great Britain, ws are bound in precise terms to submit to international arbi- tration any difference arising as to the interpretation of a treaty provision. The statement that we own the canal and built it with our money, and that we can do as ws like with it, is not true. We bought the rights to build the canal subject to a mortgage, and that mort- gage was the pledge to treat the ship- ping of all nations on equal terms. There are those among us who now wish to repudiate the mortgage by vio- lence, and to do in a matter of national and international business a dishonora- ble act that they would not for a mo- ment cont2mplate in their private af- fairs.

NORTHAMPTON, ass., Dec. 18.—I believe that the United States should hold sacred all of its treaty obligations. If the present Panama Canal Act is a violation of our treaty agreements with Great Britain, then that act should be amended. If our most able jurists believe that the canal act is entirely in accord with our treaty obligations, then I believe that the matter should be referred to The Hague tribunal, if Great Britain disagrees with our point of view.

Did Gussie Bepler want to Geliver corn beef C. O. D. to Mrs. Mud- ridge-Smith at the Highcosta Arms? Or aid Muller send her a card conveying his best wishes for a happy Yulstide end a request that she please remit also?" “IT told you I wasn't talking about the butcher and grocer at all! And just . A Foolish Invention HIS is a sketch of one of the stoves used on the cars of ii being impudent, I won’t pay them till I'm ready, either! You know whom I mean—those dreadful Cackelberry girls of Peoria. The deceit, the duplic- {ty of them! Ugh!” ] “The Misses Cackelberry are both bad eggs, so to speak?’ inquired Mr. Jarr. “Oh, you mustn't speak of them that way!’ remark2d Mrs. Jarr quickly “They are good girls and of a very refined family, but I guess they inherit their deceit from their mother. She sent them to visit me and eloped with ths young man paying attention to the daughters. Of course, Mrs. Cackelberry was a widow, and that makes it ro- mantic, but it was a dirty trick, and Irene Cackelberry and Viola Cackelber- Ty are two-faced, trouble-making minxes. But you mustn’t say a: word against them because I[ entertained them, and, surely, if I entertained them, they aro girls against whom nobody can say a word! §8o please oriticise your own friends?” “Name one,” said Mr. Jarr firmiy. But Mrs. Jarr only shook her head and said no one seemed to be werthy of trust these days. “What have the flappers from Peorta done now?’ asked Mr. Jarr. “Why they have used every artifice to lure Jack Silver to Peoria. He admitted it to Clara Mudridge-Smith.”’ *“‘Nonsense!"’ said Mr. Jarr. “To lure Jack Silver to Peoria you’d have to blindfold him end back him on the train like a horse.” “But they did, I tell you, they did!” repeated Mre. Jarr. “They wrote to Jack Silver and told him the designing married woman who had him in her New Store. CUR new Optical Store at 1002 a ive St. is ac- knowledged the finest west of New York City. And the service is as as the store is beau 1002 Olive St, ect toils had boasted he would never marry until she was a widow. And they told him if he’d come to Peorla. they would tell him more. Of course, Jack Silver is too much of a gentleman to show a letter a girl has written him, but he let Clara see Viola Cackelberry’s elberry’s on another, and then he let her see the written words implying that Clara Mudridge-Smith was a siren.’’ “Oh, well, you should worry and get creases in your countenance!” said Mr. Jarr carelessly. ““‘What is it to you?’ “It's a great deal to me!’’ replied Mrs. Jarr. ‘We have a little daughter. Sup- pose when she grows up and has some millionaire’s son infatuated with her that serpents should hiss across her path and lure her sweetheart from her?’ “Well,” said Mr. Jarr clamly, “by the time our littie Emma is old enough to have beaux the Misses Cackelberry will be pretty old lady snakes.”’ “But the principle is the same, isn’t it?” asked Mre. Jarr. “And, just as I said, who can you trust these days?’ A Puzzle, c= you take 4 from 4 and leave 4? asked the Christtan Herald.
