My opinion is that business men would do better work if they did not partake of liquors until they had finished the day's work.”’ “In *the 10 years that I have been connecteq with the league, I have observed a steady decrease in the number of cocktails consumed,” said Saunders. “This has been especially ncticeable during the last two or three years, when a large proportion of the “cocktails served at our lunch- eons were left untouched, “At one of our recent luncheons we told the waiters not to place the cock- tails, but to ask each man at the table whether he wanted a cocktail. About half the members present called for cocktallis. 2 “That plan, however, caused the luncheon to be delayed about ® min- utes while the orders were being tak- en and filled. At the last luncheon, we instructed the waiters to put a cocktail at each plate. So many of the drinks were left. however, that we decided to try one luncheon without them. “If the members prefer a dry’ lunch- eon, we will not serve cocktalls in the future.

MIRROR Itt IN GUURT OF MIRROR

Judge Stages Tableaux in Hear- ing of Dr. Otto J. Schwer’s Suit.

A mirror test was made of mirror testimony in the divorce suit of Dr. Otto J. Schwer against Mrs. Elizabeth Schwer, in Judge Hennings’ court, ThurSday. Mr. and Mrs, C. E. Norden, who occupied a part of Mrre. Schwer's home at 3409 Pine street, after the Schwers separated, had testified tliat they had seen Mrs. Schwer and a man in Mrs. Schwer’s room from an “I.” window. Judge Hennings had a mirror brought into court and directed ii» making of tests in angle reflections. The Schwer case was partly heard by Judge Hitchcock in October and con- tinued for further testimony. On Judge Hitchcock’s removal to another room, the case was set for complete rehear- ing. Mr. and Mrs. Norden repeated ‘he testimony they had given in October. They said that a mirror was so hung in Mrs. Schwer’s room that they could see from their window what took place there. They told of seeing Mrs. Schwer and a man in the room. In rebuttal, Attorney A. R. Russell, representing’ Mrs. Schwer, introduced photographs intended to show that re- flections could not have been seen from the Nordens’ window, and put Elmer E. Arant a photographer, on the stand, to testify to the same effect. Blue prints were also introduce ad which were in- tended to show that no mirror reflection could be visible from the angle of the Nordens window. Judge Hennings ordered a mirror brought from his chambers. It was placed on the wall back of the bench. Norden was directed to stand at a point corresponding to the location of his win- dow in the Schwer home. Attorney Rus- sell and Attorney B. E. Hamilton, rep- resenting Schwer, stood as the Nordens had testified Mrs. Schwer and the man had stood. Norden could not see the reflection. When the two lawyers were placed at the angle which Arant had testi- fied would make their reflected images visible at the Nordens’ window, Norden could see them reflected in the mirror. These positions, however, were not the positions alleged to have been occupied by the man and woman. The Schwers were married in De- cember, 1897, and separated In Febru- ary, 1911. In his petition Schwer alleged that Mrs. Schwer was jealous and interfered with his practice. Mrs. Schwer filed a cross bill, in which she alleged that her husband expressed a preference for a younger woman and compelled her to undergo en operation which she said was not necessary. Dr. Alonzo Kiefer testified that the opera-

tion was necessary. ; DIVORGE STORY Two Non-Combatants Are Killed in Street. Club today by bursting shells. of detachments of all arms of the service.

They contained an account of the most isquieting feature of the fighting in Mexico City—the killing of two Amer- ifan women yesterday. Those who consulted with President Taft today declared the fact that he was to go out of office within the next three weeks would have no weight fn determining his. action toward eg he They said the President was ready "for action up to the last moment of his ad- ministration. In regard to reports that Taft had or would consult President-elect Wilson, it was said at the White House today that the President considered the Mexican problem one for him alone until March 4. Administration officials loox with much apprehension upon the effect of the killing of the two Americans, and one of the first results of the incident was an order to Ambassador Wilzon to warn all Americans out of the danger zene. The President is keeping in co stant touch with the situation from _ three points of view, from the diplomatic side, which involves the actions of Ambassa- dor Wilson in making representations to President Madero and Gen. Diaz in the interest of the foreign life and prop- arty in Mexico; from the naval view- point, as it concerns the extent of the activities of several thousand marines and bluejackets who will appear in the Mexican ports within the course cf the next 48 hours, and from the miiitary standpoint, which involves a determina- tion of the question as to when, if at ali, he shall give the word for the en- trainment of the First Brigade «f the First Division of the reorganized urmy of regular troops, which now lies under arms with knapsacks packed and emer- gency rations, ready for an immediate Geparture for the South. Wilson’s Course Approved, * Ambassador Wilson’s cqurse so far has the unqualified approval of the admin- istration, though some of the army men questioned his attempt to stop hostili- ties. Admitting that his aim was to protect lives and property of Americans and other foreigners, they believe there wil] be less bloodshed and a speedy de- termination of the rebellion if the com- batants are allowed to fight it out with no interference. Secretary Knox and his immediate ad- visers, however, do not accept this view and although instructions have been sent to the Ambassador to do everything pos- sible to induce the American residents of Mexico City to vacate their homes temporarily at least and go to some place of safety, there is no disposition there to criticise Wilson for his forcible representations of yesterday. Prepared for a further call for bat- uleships, the Navy Department has kept Admiral Badger, in command of the Atlantic fleet at Guantanamo, advised of developments. The ships, with banked fires, are ready to move at once. The Marine Corps, ‘‘always ready,” is prepared for immediate embarkation of its companies at the Atlantic Coast navy yards and stations. The marine force on the Panama Canal zone is ready to move. The First Army Brigade re- ports 3000 men are in condition to start for Newport News within three hours. Knox Outlines the Plans. Secretary Knox in outlining the at- titude of the administration toward the Mexican situation said that its object is non-intervention. No troops for in- tervention will be put on Mexican soil until Congress has told President Taft to go ahead, President Taft and the Cabinet are in accord that Congress shall share the re- sponsibility for any intervention. A day of conferences between the President and his advisers ended with the under- standing that should conditions in Mex- Mico City become so much worse as to demand the landing of American troops, Taft will lay before both houses of Congress the full facts of the situation in a special message. : Preliminaries All Arranged. Every preliminary has been arranged for the action which might follow such a course. Thirty-five thousand men of the army, navy and marine corps are in readiness for movement, in addition to the six dreadnaughts, with approxi- mately 6000 jackies and officers, which are now under full steam for Mexican ports. Galveston, Tex., would be the port of departure of the artillery forces and some of the cavalry. DEWEY CONVENES JOINT WAR BOARD WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—A signifi- cant proceeding of the day was the

MEXICAN FIGHT INTERESTS FRANCE! PARIS,: Feb. 13—The civil ‘war inj} Mexico occupies a larger place in public interest in France at the mo- ment than does the Balkan war. The keenest attention is paid by members of the diplomatic corps to the possibil- ity of intervention by the United States, the prevailing view being that this probably will occur before order has been restored. The French Foreign Office declines to make any comment on the situation, as it wishes to maintain its attitude of neutral observation. The foreign Min- ister, however, receives frequent com- munications from the French Charge @’Affairs in Mexico City. The Mexi- can Legation in Paris also from time to time transmits to the foreign office encouraging messages, received from the Madero Government. The interest taken in the situation

msasure has sbeen referred, expressed the fear that somebody was seeking “‘to put Something over.” ‘I warn you Democrats now,” sald Roney, “that this legislation must not be passed with indecent haste.” Representative Harris of Boone Coun- ty, -a champion of the county unit local option bill, thought the attack on St. Louis was not justified: “I do not think,” said he, “that we j#eed be afraid of what St. Louis will do under home rule laws. There are f00d people down there and I do not believe they will violate the law.” Senator Wilson of Platte assailed the attitude of Hay and other prohibition members, ‘ Not a Brewery Issue. “This is not a wet and dry fight,’’ said Wilson. “It is not an issue between the breweries and the anti-saloon league. The clear and unavoidable question con- cerns the honor of the Democratic party in this State. When we said we favored home rule, did we mean it or did we just put it in the platform as mere bun- combe? Was it a vote catcher and nothing more? The issue is too great to be sidetracked by a covert attempt to blacken home rule legislation by giv- ing it the appearance of a scheme io. lift the Sunday lid in St. Louis. “I pin my colors to Elliott W. Major. I believe he will not hesitate to re- move any official in St. Louis who fails to do his duty. If you say ‘the bills we have been considering are not effective, you ara insinuating that the Governor will not ‘enforce the law down there? Are we going to bring this sort of hu- miliation on the State administration? I hope not. Let’s,meet this issue square- ly, face to face. We have given our word to St. Louls. The least we can do is to keep it.’’ Moore of Barton, author of 37 bills, dealing with every phase of the liquor traffic and each designed to hamper the licensed saloon, made a_ prohibition speech. x Speaks for St. Louis. Lyles of Shannon spoke for St. Louis. Orr of Livingston and Senator Busby of Carroll made strong pleas for home rule, Many of the members crowded the hotel lobbies after the caucus. Gov. Major made his appearance among the legislators. There were reports that certain po- litical interests in St. Louis had sud- denly decided to oppose home rule leg- islation. The Governor insisted he was merely exchanging social amenities with the Democratic lawmakers. State Audi- tor’ Gordon, Secretary of State Roach and Attorney-General Barker mingled with the crowd. The prevailing ‘senti- ment seemed to be that home rule legis- lation for St. Louls will be énacted.

A LOAD 10 MOVE ASHES IN JANUARY This Is More Than Private Haul- ers Charged, but Expense Later Will Be Reduced. TOTAL OUTLAY, $14,723 United Railways Got 80 Cents a Wagon Load for Disposing of Some of Refuse. A report of Street Commissioner Tra- villa for January shows it costs the city of St. Louis $2.11 a load to remove the housebol@é ashes. It costs 18 cents a load to pay inspectors to drive about the districts and see that the ashes are removed properly,’ according to the re- port. Twelve inspectors are employed for this work, and the inspection payroll for the month was $1253.96. Travilla dis- charged three inspectors recently for failure to do their duty, he told a Post- Dispatch reporter Thursday. He de- clared several inspectors seemed to think they hold political jobs, and did not have to do any work., The total cost of removing the ashes in January was $14,723.97. This includes $2300.25 for disposing of the ashes es they were collected. The number of wagon loads removed in the month was 6928. U. R. Gets 80 Cents a Load. A charge of 80 cents 2 wagonload is made by the United Railways Yor haul- ing the ashes away from the dumping stations on its line. The Wiggins Fe1- ry Co. is paid 25 cents a load to haul away ashes delivered to its dumps. The city is required to pay 10 cents a wag- onload for the privilege of dumping ashes in an abandoned quarry hole on Burd avenue. In January 279 loads were delivered to the United Railways, 655 loads to the Wiggins Ferry Co., 733 loads were dumped into the quarry and 2961 were disposed of at free dumps. The Complaint Department received letters com- plaining that ashes were not remove promptly and properly, according to the report. This shows a decrease from December, when 1000 complaints were received. Before the city undertook to remove the ashes it was customary for team- sters to charge from $1 to $1.50 a load for hauling the ashes away from resi- dences. Travilla Thursday told a Post- Dispatch reporter the expense to the city is higher than {t will be when the system is perfected and running smooth- ly. He declared the ashes formerly were removed from ashpits at a charge of from $1 to $1.0 a one-horse wagon load, containing about two yards. The city wagons hold four yards of ashes.

The police Thursd&y received from Havana, Cuba, a cablegram addressed to Ramon Liano, the Spanish author, who was arrested about a week ago when he tried to convert two $10,000 bills into foreign exchange at the Third Na- tional Bank. Llano is still held incom. municado, but the police say he has admitted that the bills are part of the $200,000 stolen while being shipped from the National Bank of Cuba to the Park National Bank of New York. The cablegram was in Spanish. Chicf of Detectives Allender called two inter- preters to his office and had them translate the message, but he an- nounced after their departure that he Was not ready to make known the con- tents of the cablegram. He also said the cablegram would not be given to Liano for the present. Two men who were arrested as sus- pects after the theft and released a short time later, have been re-arrested in Havana as a result of the arrest of Liano, the police say. The Cuban Gov- ernment has made a formal demand on the United States for the extradi- tion of Liano, and the request ig going through routine form at Washington. Liano is taking things easily. He has his own bedding in his cell, buys his own food and keeps himself wel] supplied with cigarettes and other luxuries. He has asked that nobody be admitted to interview him. a Cogswell’s Friday Candy Special, 40- Chocolate Cocoanut Cordials, 150 Ib, 515 N. 6th. THE DAY IN CONGRESS ‘WASHINGTON, Feb. 13. SENATE.

Drinking and money-madness were de- clared by Archbishop Gitennon, in his Lenten midday sermon at St. John’s Church Thursday, to be forms of mod- ern paganism. ‘“‘We don’t see a golden calf erected nowadays,’ said the Archbishop, “but that is because the worshippers of gold have other uses for it than to make a visible idol of it. The worship is here just the same. There are those who sell body and soul, time and eternity, for money; those who trade dishonestly and fleece their neighbors, and those who, to gain money, will trade in hu- man souls. “They are worshippers.of Mammon. And Bacchus, the jolly god, whom the ancients showed as a bloated youth, has his worshippers, too. “The man who stays in a saloon Sat- urday night until the proprietor, or a policeman, sends him home, and “sleeps it off” all through Sunday morning, has abandoned the shrine of the Lord God to worship at the shrine of Bac. chus. “Some would like to serve both God and Bacchus, But the ancients knew what they were doing when they pic- tured Bacchus as surrounded by satyrs, Satyrs were half man and half animal. And the drinking man, the modern de- votee of Bacchus, is half man and half heast—or if he drinks enough, he is al]] beast.’’ The Archbishop declared it was doubt- rul whether atheism, as an actual belief of intelligent persons, had any exist- ence. Those who call themselves athe- ists, he said, are usually persons whose manner of living accounts for their un- willingness to acknowledge a supreme power. He included in this statement those whom he termed “ethical people, who profess a human standard of hon- orable conduct, but reject the supernat- ural,’”’ CHAUFFEUR BURNED IN GASOLINE EXPLOSION a | Blast Sets Fire to Garage at Home of W.

Peper discovered the fire When the light from the flames on the roof of the garage were reflected into his bed- room through a window. One of the cars destroyed belonged to Peper, and the two others were owned by his nephews, Clarence Peper, 5887 Washington ave- nue, and Charles Peper, 5200 Delmar. Mrs. Peper told a Post-Dispatch re- porter Thursday that because there have been four similar fires recently within a radius of four blocks of the Peper home, she believes an incendiary set fire to the garage. She said no lamps or oil was kept in the building, and there are no electric light wires. She cannot ac-

Shepard, Justice of the Peace, was narrowly averted here today when Shepard fined Leonard Wolf of this city $25 on a charge of stealing an over- coat. “This is an attempt to railroad an innocent man to jail,’’ said Cross, “You’re a Har,’ said Justice Shepard, as he picked up a chair and swung it to his shoulder.

The committee also will urge the pas- sage of a bill now pending before the Legislature to permit St. Louis to :n- crease its bonded indebtedness for the purpose of constructing a subway. Studying the Subject. Rosenfeld, who has been correspond- ing with public officials and subway builders in New York and Boston, ad- dressed the Board of Directors of the association and outlined what he con- siders the best plan to be followed in the event the city decides to build a subway. “New York had no money when it made up its mind to have a subway,” said Rosenfeld. “The State Constitu- tion prevented the city from incurring indebtedness beyond a certain percent- age of its tax assessments. “The Legislature passed a measure authorizing the city-to submit to the voters a proposition whereby the mu- nicipality was given power to borrow $50,000,000 in excess of its regular allow- ance. Later that amount was increased to $120,000,000, and still later to $300,000,- 000. The investment of that immense fortune in making a subway system proved a most profitable one for the city. The subway was leased to com- panies who paid the city 4% per cent interest on the total amount of the in- vestment and a share of its profits over the 6 per cent dividend allowed stock- holders. Boston Spent $80,000,000. ‘Boston invested $80,000,000 in a sub- way, following the plan adopted by New York, and never has had cause to regret the step. St. Louis can do the same thing. “St. Louis should have a subway ex- tending from Fourth street to Sarah street. It should be so constructed as to carry four sets of tracks, two for passengers and one each for express and freight. Telephone, telegraph and electric light wires could be strung in the tunnel, and, perhaps, a pneumatic mail tube could be constructed there at a light cost.”’ A complaint regarding delayed mail deliveries in the West End was re- ferred to the Complaint Committee. J. H. Butler of the St. Louis Pneumatic Tube Co. delivered an illustrated lec- ture on ‘“‘Mail Tube System.’’

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—Reports that attacks upon the life of Police Captain Tom Walsh were feared because of his confession to police graft involving others, were substantiated by admis- sions from Walsh's physician today that his patient’s food was being very care- fully examined before he was permit- ted to eat it. “Do you mean you are afraid that Walsh's enemies might attempt to pois- on his food?” he was asked. “IT don’t say that. I can only say that his fo0d is examined. We are not taking any chances,’’ was the doctor’s reply. The District Attorney also is taking no chances either on the rather serious state of Walsh’s health or on the risks of taking Walsh to the ceurthouse. Accordingly, it was arranged today for “he gran4A jury membery, numBering 18, to visit Walsh at his Madison avenue home and to hold a formal session at the bedside of the sick policeman.

WOMEN MARCH ON DESPITE ICY WIND AND A BALKY MAR Obstacles Fail to Dishearten Suf- frage Army Now on Way , to Capital. METUCHEN, N. J., Feb. 13.—The suffragette army marching to Wash- ington faced a 2%-mile tramp today against an icy wind to Princeton. It was the second lap of the journey be- gan yesterday. Sixteen pilgrims composing the regu- lar army responded when Gen. iosalie G. Jones, commander of the exposition, scunded “forward, march.”’ A score of local suffragettes joined the ranks with the intention of march- ing as far as New Brunswick. Reports were received just before the start that students from Rutgers Col- lege planned to meet the army out- side New Brunswick and escort the members into town. The same welcome is promised by Princeton students who have been in- vited to hear an address tonignt by Miss Elizabeth Freeman, “official ora- tor’’ of the pilgrimage. The unambitious disposition of Lu- sanne, the mare which is drawing the ‘ammunition wagon,’’ so alarmed Gen. Jones that she called in the services ef a local veterinary today. The surgeon pronounced the animal ‘“capabl2 but apathetic.”’ —_

Suffragettes Warned Not to Violate Sacred Princeton Tradition. PRINCETON, N, J., Feb. 13.—Unless “Gen.”” Rosalie G. Jones and her “army’’ of suffragettes agree to break ranks before entering Princeton, where they are expected this afternoon .on their “hike’’ to Washington, they are in danger of bringing down upon them- selves the wrath of the undegraduate body through the violation of one of ‘Old Nassau’s’’ most sacred traditions. It has long been the custom here that only students shall march along Nassau street, the main and only direct thoroughfare through the town. In order to uphold this custom, the undergraduates upon one _ occasion charged a circus parade, liberated sev- eral elephants and engaged in a free- for-all fight with the circus employes. It is the general belief, however, that

i\the suffragettes will comply with the students’ request and break ranks dur-

SENATE FIGHT ON TAFT MAKES TAILORS MOURN Deadlock Over Confirmations Causes Ordered Uniforms to Remain in Makers’ Keeping. WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—Gloom as black as the blackest midnight has set- tled on the leading military tailors of the Capital as a result of the Senate’s failure to confirm the appointments and promotions of army and navy officers, for the land and sea fighters in consid- erable numbers are failing to take off the hands of their tailors new uniforms and other glad raiment until they are authorized by a dilatory government to don them. Uniforms to the amount of between $25,000 and $30,000, made up and waiting, are now lying idle on _ the _ tailor’s shelves. 4 A number of those appointed to the army and the marine ships as second lieutenants after . passing competitive examinations gave up their civil posi- tions in expectation that they would be appointed quickly. AS a result many of them are short of funds and because of the deadlock in the Senate over Pres- ident Taft’s nominations it is not proba- ble that the appointments will be con- firmed at this session. Accordingly both the aspiring officers and _ perspiring tailors needs must mark mournful time.

DIVORCE CASE Judge Hennings Refuses De- crees After Testimony Last- ing Two Days. At the conclusion of the testimony in the Krause divorce case Wednesday, Judge Hennings dismissed both the Dill of Mrs. Lillian Krause and the cross- bill of Jacob Krause. The Krauses oc- cupy the same apartments, at 440 TFor- est Park boulevard. They haveé one daughter, Myrtle, 10 years old. The trial lasted two days. Krause tes- tified that his wife went out to poker games and associated with persons of whom he did not approve. The tele- phone rang frequently, but when he an- swered it there was no response. When Mrs. Krause answered it, he said, there ensued long conversations. Mrs. Krause testified that, although her husband’s income was $500 a month from his business, he allowed her only $40 a month for running the house and buying clothing for .herself and her daughter. Bertha Brown, a negro maid, testified that a man named Goldstein called sev- eral times a week. Krause testified he once saw Mrs. Krause walking with Philip Goldstein on Broadway.

LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. 13.—A delega- tion of more than a score of Indians, men and women, of the Winnebago and Omaha tribes in Northeastern Ne- braska, appeared last night before the Senate Committee on Judiciary and urged the passage of bills now pending in both Houses of the Legislature le- galizing tribal marriages and provid- ing that marriage in the future be placed on the same legal footing as those of the white race. ‘Women members of the band did the buik of the talking, and their argu- ments .were impassioned and eloquent. Mrs. Loulsa Johnson, mother of George Johnson, a baseball pitcher, this season With the Chicago American League club, aroused enthusiasm among her followers. One Indian, who opposed the bills, was denounced as not repre- senting sentiment of the two tribes. SOCIETY WOMEN TURNERS Newport Gymnastic Students to Give an Exhibition, NEWPORT, R.

Figures in Series of Fatalities, Levora was an employe of his broth- er’s ice plant, and the rifle with which he killed the woman belongs to another employe, and was taken from the ice plant. After the shooting he took the rifle to his brother’s house, and re- marked to his brother that he had shot a woman. He left before his brother could question him. In the ‘“‘Blondie’ Atwood murder mys- tery of June, 1910, which has never been solved, Anton Levora was a Coroner’s witness, and it developed that he had ‘been much in the company of the At- wood woman, whose body was found lying beside a railroad track. Another witness, Charles M.. Berger, died last year from an iliness believed to have been caused by worry over the case; a second, Lizzie Jedliska, was killed by a fall from an interurban car; and Levora is thus the third person connected with the case who. has since met with tragic occurrences.

In exempting the School Board nominations from the operation of the new municipal primary law, the Legislature wisely refrained from acting upon the rattle-brained counsel] of raw reformers to invest party committees with the sole legal power to name school directors. But the mere exemption of the nominations, without definite provision, leaves the selection of School Board candidates in a most unsatisfactory state. Apparently the School Board nominations remain under the old universally denounced and repudiated municipal primary law, which the new direct popular primary law otherwise repeals and supersedes. Messrs. Drabelle and Kortjohn agree that the old law governs the nominations for both school directors and charter freeholders. Thus by legal exemption the choice of candi- dates for two of the most important boards in the city is turned over to delegate conventions

' MR. TAFT’S PRUDENCE. Anarchy is the only reason that justifies the a -. {mvasion of Mexico by the armed forces of the __. Unitea States. The inability of the Mexicans to ggtablish orderly government and to protect the lives and property of Americans and other for- eigners is the sole ground which would warrant American intervention. But the task of restoring order would be long and arduous. It might involve war, with all of its possibilities and unforseen consequences. It. would certainly require a prolonged guardian- ghip similar to that we are exercising in Cuba. Annexation cannot be considered except with the free consent of the Mexican people. Because the task is great, because it involves unforseeable consequences which might tax the wisdom and patience of the nation, President Taft is wise to submit the question of interven- tion to Congress. The counse] of the nation’s representatives should be taken on so grave an act. The just intention and unselfish motive of the United States should be clearly defined and the unity of the nation on the purpose and ‘wisdom of the step secured. It should not be - made until the resources of warning and media- tion are exhausted. Have we done that? _ Mr. Taft’s statesmanlike procedure with re- gard to Mexico is in admirable contrast with Mr. | Roosevelt’s reckless exercise of personal will and power with regard to Panama. = = a ae No matter where the Grant statue is placed, ‘the site will be honored and visited.

The voters have no direct votce tn the selec- tion of party candidates for these offices. There is no guarantee that the party commit- tees will not put the School Board and the Freeholders under garty control or will not conspire through bipartisan or tripartisan agreements to divide the spoils of the public schools. ee The only protection of the people lies in the power to nominate independent candidates by electors’ petitions. These candidates, in order to defeat a conspiracy of party bosses, would have to be elected against the combined power of the party machines. | The choice of several candidates for the Board of Freeholders at the last charter election con- tributed much to the defeat of the charter. The people of St. Louis must rely upon the force prof public opinion to protect the public schools and the Board of Freeholders from assault by party bosses. Opinion should be crystallized into such a demand for good candidates that the party committees will not dare disappoint the people. So far as the new municipal primary law gots, the Post-Dispatch regards it as a fair result of our long-continued protest against boss control of nominations. But it is incomplete. It has the defects of hurried legislation. The primary and election laws should be thoroughly revised in the interest of the people.

FIVE CENTS FROM EACH PASSENGER. The United Railways Co. is advertising that it received $12,084,080.00 last year for carrying 244,- 386,564 “revenue passengers’ and 113,001,983 “transfer passengers,” a total of 357,388,547, and therefore that it received only 3.36 cents per pas- senger, and not 5 cents. Does anybody remember having had a ride for 3.36 cents? If so, will he or she stand up and move forward, please, so that we can have a look at him or her? The counting of 113,001,983 ‘transfer passen- gers” twice in order to swell the grand total is very pretty arithmetic, but it is even a prettier joke—or is it only another pathetic instance of hcw poor, innocent little figures can be made to tell a great big lie?

i, A ee THE COUNTY UNIT PRINCIPLE. If the county unit bill, upon which the pro- nibitionicts in the State Legislature have concen- trated their strength, is to become law, it should bo amended. The pcwer to determine whether or not saloons shall be licensed, which the bill proposes to invest in each county as a _ unit, should be supplemented with the power to regu- late the saloons. If each county is to ve author- ized to decide the question of permittirg the sale of liquor within its borders, it should also be authorized to decide the cenditions under which, i? they are licensed, they shall operate, the regu- lation of the hours of o»enin~ and closing and the mode of conducting the dra 1-hops. The one is the logical corollary of the other. The bill is based on the principle of the local control] of the liquor traffic, which is sound prin- ciple. The only crestion is of che unit, and if the county is the proper unit. the power of regula- tion as well as the power of ~rnu.wvition should be in the hands of the voters of the county. They are the best judges .o” their own needs. = = ll

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. | Judge O'Neil Ryan’s lectuye on “Ireland, Its History, Politics and Economics,” was a most full and complete refutation of Prof. Ushér’s so0- called historical lectures on Ireland and its peo- ple. There is one phase of Prof. Usher’s lec- tures whicn deserves the severest condemnation from an ethical point of view. Prof. Usher, al- though instructor of history in Washington Uni- versity, stated in reference to his Irish lectures. “T made no claims that the instances I cited were facts. I simply presented the matter from two viewpoints. It was like a lawyer presenting the arguments in favor of his side of the contro- versy.” That is a most astounding and unethical admission for a professor of history to make. If the facts and truths of history are openly and admittedly distorted; why not with equal logic distort the facts and truths of science and religion? The Orange political clique in Ireland is opposed to home rule, just as the highwaymen {s opposed to surrendering his loot. The time is near at hand though when the Orange garrison shall surrender or be captured. Their dismal howlings will avail them naught. Their carnival of crime and graft will soon be at an end. They will soon have to go into a cold world to earn an honest living by the sweat of their brow. In this and in this alone {s there a chance of regeneration fer the benighted Orangeman. DR. HENRY W. CURTIN.

Advice to Kansas City. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Mr. Show Me in Monday’s Post-Dispatch is cor- rect in his remarks on §St. Louis, except in re- gard to her citizens not knowing her power. Must citizens do realize her strength, but they come of a race of people who do BIG things quietly. The idea of boasting about their achieve- ments has never entered their minds—bombast is not necessary. Really great cities are not obliged to blow a horn. Great men seldom brag, nor do they belittle their less fortunate brothers. St. ‘Louis would not do so. She does not mind Kan- sas City’s criticism any more than a Great Dane worries over the barking of a terrier, but it may be beneficial to the terrier to rebuke him eccasionally for his own good. Now, Kansas City, be quiet, and begin industriously sawing wood. CANFIELD. Warning to Illinois Democrats. to the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Is popular government a failure? We have been working four years to get rid of Lorimerism. The election of a speaker in the Illinois Legis- lature yesterday arouses grave doubts in the minds of real progressives. It is to be hoped that Mr. McKinley, the Speaker elected, is a clean man and was sincere in the statement he made while the vote was being ‘taken, but the combina- tion of votes that elected him creates a suspicion. There is an effort being made by so-called Democrats higher up in the organization to pre- vent the election of J. Hamilton Lewis to the United States Senate. If any Democratic mem- her of the Illinois Legislature should ignore this primary vote, his constituents should make it so warm for him that he would not dare return home afterwards. I was not for Mr. Lewis in the primary, but since he {s the nominee of the Democratic party in a popular primary, every member of the party in the Legislature should continue to vote for him as long as there is a possibility of his election. If any Democratic legislator can conscientiously ignore this pri- mary vote then I must admit that I don’t know Ff why I am a Democrat. Soronto, II. A PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRAT.

We revere Lincoln, and we like to remind every- body what a fine man he was as often as we can think of some new way of putting it. It seemed impossible yester- day. We looked around to see if any- one else, perhaps, had hit upon some new way of putting it. No one had. This is our chief objection to great men. Useful as they sometimes are, they work a great hardship on posterity, which naturally feels that it should do something about their birthdays. If they left other great men who could do this as it should be done, it wouldn’t be so bad. As it is, the birthday of any great man becomes in the end as water drop- ping upon a stone. It makes a bright and beautiful spray for a while, and then lapses into a dull chug. We don’t like the dull chug in association with as clever a man as Lincoln was. He never did any dull chugging. We therefore permitted his birthday to pass unno- ticed, though hoping that there wil) be an occasional man like him, even unto the end. Senator Feaster is having some pretty hard sledding with his State park bill. No doubt the man who got Forest Park for us was regarded as a great crank in his day. Scientists say that men are growing larger all the time. It is just as well. The women are becoming more obstrep- erous all the time. A New York hen is laying flat eggs. It won’t take the hens long to adjust themselves to the parcel post.

mani 6 B.D, ls Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark MegAdams. AN OLD PREJUDICE DYING. The town of Trenton, Mo., in Grundy County, made a crusade against the prejudices which divide rural districts and country towns. The conquest in- creased the membership of the Trenton Commercial Club from 18 to 500, and changed it into a chamber of human | Welfare, agriculture and commerce. Half the members are farmers. Town and country have found inter- ests running along the same lines and co-operation for the advancement of Grundy County socially, commercially and agriculturally is the result. The membership of the club now is to be increased to 800. The organization will deal in men, products and distribution. The united town and country has rolled up its sleeves and is working for the benefit of the community without refer- ence to the town limits.—Fulton Tele- graph. Hurrah!

COMING. TWELVE WORDS A SECOND. From the New York Times. The first demonstration in this coun- try of the Pollak-Virag rapid telegraph system, by which 40,000 words an hour can be dispatched, was given yesterday afternoon at the Vanderbilt otel by Antoinne Pollak, the inventor. The sys tem has been successfully tested in Germany and France, and will be dem- onstrated next for the benefit of the English Government. The most. re- markable feature of the invention is ) that the message, sent at such great speed, is recorded directly in writing as with the hand, at the receiving end. Much to his surprise, the inventor found that he had to pay duty on his apparatus to bring it into this country. He had it set up in his rooms at the Vanderbilt and it worked at the dem- cnstration without one hitch. The ap- paratus consists of a perforating ma- chine, in some respects similar to a typewriter, for the making of perforated tape, an automatic transmitter and a receiver.

From Le Bres!l Saibaiees sy The rumor is abroad that the German war vessel Bremen has proceeded in the port of San Francisco, State of Ban Catherina, to recruit a number of young Brazilians, born of German parents, for service in the navy of Germany. This action is not without precedent in the German navy and everyone will remem- ber of a like recruiting effected under orders of the German ship Panther.

Per- ‘she \She gave him hers. “You are right,”’ she exclaimed. “It is a splendid opportunity, and, as you say, perfectly justifiable.”’ Slowly and stealthily they crept up to the rocks where the married couple were concealed. Their rubber-soled shoes made no noise. They sank down behind a rock not five feet away from their quarry, whose every word could be distinctly heard. Mr. Spencer was smoking a cigar. The faint, blue line of smoke rose above the rocks, until the afternoon breeze caught it and blew {it away into thin aur. iy “The fact of the matter is," he was gaying, “that we are diametrically op: posed on every subject, and always have been. But certainly a woman ought to yield occasionally.” Mrs. Spencer apparently tossed her ead. “That's a particularly pleasant thing to say to me,"’ she said, “when I’ve done nothing but yield all my life, when-I might have been something if I hadn’t been kept down by household work.” “Fie!

The fire started on the first floor of e Brusnwick-Balke-Collender Build- gz, at 324 South Wabash avenue. its rapid spread and the fact that a watch- man and engineer employed in the building could not be located after the fire broke out, led the authorities to an- nounce that a searching investigation into the cause of the fire would be made.

POLICE ORDERED. 70 TAKE FUGITIVE DEAD OR ALIVE: East St. Louis Search Continues for Man Who Killed Detective —Escaped by Ruse.

East St. Louis policemen continued Thursday their search for Otto Schaum- berg, skeleton key burglar and* mur- derer of Detective James J. Arnold. They were prepared to take him dead or alive, and were under orders, be- cause of his desperate character, to ‘take no chances’ in arresting him, but in case of any apparent danger, to shoot him at sight. Such a close watch was kept over the many avenues of exit from the city Wednesday that the East St. Louis po- lice believe he is still hiding gomewhere in that city. He is well known by sight to many persons, and if, as the police believe, he is hungry and out of money, his capture depends only on keeping him in Bast St. Louis. Arnold was shot by Schaumberg when, after he had arrested the bur- giar in his home on State street, he gave him permission to change his treusers. Arnold’s reason for doing this, according to his companion, De- tective Adamson, was that he recog- rized a blue vest as having been stolen, and was willing to let Schaumberg put on the vest and the trousers matching it, in order that he might have tna evi- cence on his prisoner.

UP GARBAGE PLANT FOR FIVE YEARS Officials Believe They Must Re- advertise for Bids Under Standard Company’s Bond.

BUILDING COST $250,000

Contract at Remunerative Price Would Cost City $400,000 in Time Covered by Bond. Discovery was made Thursday that plans of the Board of Public Improve- ments to erect in St. Louis a $250,000 municipal garbage reduction works will be frustrated by a gazipe in the $50,000 bond of the Standard Reduction and Chemical Co., which will prevent the building of a municipal plant before Sept. 1, 1918. After an examination of the bond the city Law Department reached the con- clusion that the city can take its choice between advertising for new bids for garbage reduction, or erecting a munic- ipal plant, and forfeiting the bond, In 1910 the city entered into a contract with the Standard company, by which the company agreed to dispose of all St. Louis garbage for 27 cents a ton, It gave the bond that it would faithfully perform the contract. Company Lost From Start, The company lost money from the be- ginning. Members of the board have said that they believed the city was get- ting an advantageous contract, as they said garbage cannot be handled profit- ably for less than from $1 to $1.25 a ton. The company first erected a plant near St. Charles, but after a short time was forced to move. It went to Stallings, Ill., where several of the officials were indicted and county authorities conduct- ed a vigorous prosecution to oust the plant. The company became bankrupt a few weeks ago and the city now has to transport its garbage to Chesley Island. City officials at first believed this failure to carry out the terms vf the contract would forfeit the company's bond, and a bill was introduced in the Municipal Assembly appropriating $14,- om for the Board of Public Improve- ments to investigate the better meth- cds of garbage disposal and p-epare Pans and specifications in acc:)-dance with its decision. A detailed examination of the bond, however, resulted in the discovery of the clause which provides that in case the Standard company fails to handle the garbage, the city shall advertise for bids and relet the contract. City officials, after a conference with the law department decided, this would give the surety company ground for refusing to pay bond unless bids were advertised for and none received. They say the city would be compelled to ac- cept a bid from any responsible con- cern. One official, who would not consent to the use of his name, told a Post- Dispatch reporter: ‘Unless a reduction company should bid from $1 to $1.25 it would lose money on its contract with the city. If such a ridiculously low bid as the last one was received, the city would eventually be in the same position it is now. It would have to advertise again. Could Build for $250,000. “But there is this situation. The cost to the city of a contract calling for a payment of $1.25 a ton would mean an expenditure to the end of the term of this bond of approximately $400,000. For $260,000 the city could build a garbage plant which would be a money-maker. Under those circumstances, it might be advisable to forfeit the $530,000 and build our own plant.’’ President Reber of the board admit- ted the Standard company’s surety bond seemed to prevent the city from build- ing a plant before 1918, and said he sa‘v ng other method than to readvertise for bids. Mayor Kreismann has been working with the board in an effort to get a definite plan for a municipal plant start- ed before his administration closed. Officials virtually had reached the conclusion that the proposed municipa! plant should be erected within the city The mere discussion of the question al- ready iias resulted in protests from many rural communities near St. Louls that if an attempt should be made to put the plant near them, legal action to stop it would be begun.

Anyone for the Mere Asking, to Prove Its Marvelous Powers | Catarrh Kills Thinking Power —_---—o—_-- Gradual Clouding of the Brain and Loss of Memory Inevit- able Result of Catarrh Catarrh anywhere in the head or throat or ear is right next to the brain. The catarrh germ grows fast, does an enormous amount of damage in its burrowings into bone and flesh and is difficult to destroy. There are thou- sands of little nerves that run from all parts of the face and head to the brain. Some of these little nerves have to pass through probably &@ mass of catarrhal inflammations on the road to the brain. When they do they are weakened, and sometimes destroyed. What affects the nerves js bound to affect the brain, and when the nerves are deadened by constant catarrha] discharges there is bound to be a certain torpor or stupidity brought about in the brain of the victim. Thus follows sleep- lessness, inability to think clearly or to connect ideas, -loss of memory, lack of concentration, lack of presence of mind and a wandering of thought. If any man or woman imagines that these things do not affect their earning capacity, their cheerfulness and the esteem which their friends have for their brightness, they have little realization of the necessity of keeping the mind always clear. That is all there is to life. When it takes such a comparatively short time to cure this terrible disease by the Gauss common-sense treatment, and regain the flash | and brilliancy of the normal brain there is no good reason why one should not spend the two or three minutes it takes to cut out the cou- pon below and sent to C.

: ee Confessions of a Catarrh Victim Some of the Sadeiniiinams That. Catarrh Forces Upon Its Slaves

I get boiling mad when people tell me I’ve got catagrh. I’ve had dozens of mere ac- Quaintances, and especially one young lady, who have come up and ventured to tell me something ‘‘for my own benefit.’’ That expression begins to pall on me—‘‘for my own benefit.” It seems they all want to tell me the same thing, ‘‘you ought to take something for your catarrh; I’ll tell you how my cousin got cured, and every doctor used to say he had the worst case he ever heard about.’”’ . Now, when a friend puts his hand on my shoulder, I. gulp in preparation for catarrh ad- 1 vice, This gulp is not mere throat action, but the swallowing of mucus. Nothing could suit me better than to have the earth open and swallow me up. I walk along the street close to the curb stone. When I ride on a car I stand on the rear platform rather than sit down inside. I wish I could talk without having to open my mouth to breathe. I wish that kisses were obsolete. I wish that handkerchiefs could be Sniffling and Hawking All Day Long. turned Into sheets. I wish that no chair but mine would be placed at the table. I wish that the other people were deaf, blind and without noses. I wish that I were alone, always alone, to hawk and spit when and where I pleased. I wish that I was my mother’s little fairy once ‘more, with my little towsled head that knew lying on her warm shoulder. Now I feel that I am an outcast. I know what they think of me, every one. I know my friends shun me, for even Jack, my old college chum, doesn’t come around and chat and smoke any more as he used to ao. My ac- quaintances only say hello, and pass by: Mrs. Grundy, next door, and all the other neighbors are talking about how repulsive I am. I see it in the way they look and act. People I sit next to get up and move some- where else. People who talk to me turn their heads at an angle. And I’m in pain. It’s not alone physical pain. It’s my mind, too, that is in agony. I can’t remember things as I used to. Thoughts slip away from me. I say things I don’t mean and mean things I never say. My head is thick and my brain is fog. I. walk alone, my work palls on me, my nerves refuse me. That let-her-go feeling has got me. I relish nothing I eat, and my ‘appetite is gone. And as I think of my misery I must hawk again. My cough is a rattle. The ruby has been plucked from my cheeks. The flush of my young health is gone. My head is in a fever, hut my hands are cold, and I seem to feel in them the approaching chill of the tomb~— I have read of catarrh deaths, and my mother’s brother died of the same disease.

ch Readers ‘Some Results - of Catarrh Even Slight Cases of Catarrh Have Terrible Consequences —_———— ee Every case of catarrh, of course, is not fatal. Nor does every case result in consumption or bronchitis, but nevertheless they are very fre- quent. No man or woman knows what his or her case of catarrh would lead to. Men of robust health have succumbed to resulting con- sumption and partial idiocy. Women of strong vitality have. become nervous wrecks and vic- tims of bronchitis. Your good health is not always a preventative against the catarrh germs. The more you feel sure there is no danger of the catarrh resulting in a disease more ser- ious, the more danger there is; simply because you will neglect yourself. This happens in hundreds of cases and we see it recorded almost daily in the letters we receive. ‘“‘If I had only started the cure earlier,’’ is a very frequent expression, showing that our warning is not fanciful, but based on fearful reality. Even slight cases of catarrh may result in nose cancer, than which there is hardly a more painful affliction in this world. Catarrh Fatality Frequent Some of the frequent results of catarrh are bronchitis, pneumonia, death and decay of bones, loss of thinking and reasoning power, death of ambition and energy, loss of appetite, indiges- tion, dyspepsia, ulceration, bad breath, raw throat, raw sores in the nose, general debility and sometimes idiocy and insanity. This is why in the death list you do not find a mention of fatal catarrh;' the death is caused not directly by the catarrh itself, but by a disease which was caused by catarrh. Medical books and cyclopedias will tell you even more serious news than we tell you fere; proba- bly after reading them you will have a full realization of what it is to have catarrh—a common disease, it is true, but with a common result—misery for years, if not death. Cure Is Certain You can cure that catarrh, slight or serfous, once and forever by means of the only common- sense sure cure for catarrh, Gauss’ Combined Treatment. We don’t ask you to believe it be- fore proving it yourself. Therefore, we send you a treatment at our own expense, absolutely free to you. When you get it you can prove it all to your own satisfaction. It is without question the greatest catarrh cure on earth. Cut out this coupon and send for the free treat- ment today to C. E.

An Old Soldier Grateful Mr. Gauss: I have finished your treatment now and am completely cured. My wife says she cannot detect any of it left and says my catarrh is gone. She ought to know, for she is a graduated nurse. I am as truly grateful to you as any old soldier can be for what your treatment has done for me and certainly will recommend it to those whom I know are af- flicted. You are certainly at liberty to use this if you want to in recommending your treat- ment to others. WwW. B. PLUMB. In the Coils From Childhood I have suffered with catarrh since I was four years old, but it has annoyed me more in the last two years. 1 tried everything I read or heard of, but they did me no good, and I saw your ad- vertisement in a paper and wrote to you and received a sample package. was impressed so favorably with the sample that I immed- iately sent for the full treatment. I suffered much with the dropping back into my throat and after I had taken the medicine for three or four weeks this nasty sensation entirely ceased and I have never had any return of it. I am now fully cured of my catarrh and I-am. very grateful to you and your medicine. I will be very glad to tell any one whom I think needs it, and if yeu wish to use my name you may do so, as I am so grateful that I wish everybody who negds it would use it, and I am sure that it will cure them.

Do you wonder that other people despise this creature?

Cure them early, All great things are conceived in ‘‘sweat.” Gauss worked hard and produced a cure that will live after him. Some would know & great deal more about being able to cure catarrh if they could forget a lot of old ideas they never should have learned. The reasons of the strongest always yield to the strongest reasons—common sense Gauss’ treatment prevails for the same reason. If the catarrh victim would stick to the treat- ment as faithfully as the catarrh sticks to him, that disease would probably be as infrequent as the now conquered diphtheria.

Catarrh Everywhere Even on Pike’s Peak No Man or Place Is Immune From the Deadly Catarrh Germ There is no part of the land which is free from catarrh. Altitudes and latitudes have little effect in destroying this omnipregent germ. Many imagine that the climate of the West, with its high altitudes and dry atmosphere, tends to prevent catarrh. There are just as many cases in proportion to the population west as east of the Mississippi, only the disease is not as severe because of the climatic effect upon the nerves, Even on Pike’s Peak, which ts over 14,000 feet above the sea level, catarrh seemed to at- tack several of the attaches of the signal sta- tion located there some years ago. No place is exempt, no human soul is ftm- mune from catarrh. Den'’t imagine because you don’t live by a lake or a river that you can’t have catarrh, or that you have only @ chronic cold when your nose has been stopped up for some time.

U. : Mark of 9 3-5 Not Allowed. On May 16, 1908, he negotiated the cen- tury dash in 9 3-5s and was allowed the record by the South Atlantic division. However, the mark never was officially credited to him in the East, because one of the timers in the race was not an A. A. U. official, but otherwise com- petent, In 1901 Arthur Duffey was officially credited with 938-5s, but subsequently

Three Years, Only Man Accredited With Doing 100 Yards in 9 2-5 Sec- onds, Has Not Competed. By W. J. O’Connor. AMES RECTOR, the only sprinter in the world ever credited with running 100 yards in 9 2-5 seconds, and the father of the now famous ‘‘Rector start,’’ has taken charge of the M. A. C. squad of dash men, and will prepare the Cherry Diamond flyers for the big M. A. C. carnival at the Coliseum, March 15. Rector, on invitation from Dr. C. W. Bassett of the M. A. C., has agreed to give his services in coaching the run- ners “free, gratis;’ and he’s willing and eager to téach all the local eprint- ers the advantages of the start which made him famous. In addition to coaching the M. A. C. boys the former Virginia Uuniversity speed marvel may himself tos the scratch in the special 60-yard invita- tion race, which promises to be the bright feature of the M. A. C. meet. Rector aims to “‘come back’ aftur be- ing away from the track game for four years. Will Try to “Come Back.” However, nis final decision to run in the-M. A. C. meet is contingent upon his abjlity to regain his old form: Rector will not ruin a past reputation by a defeat in the Coliseum race if he can help it. In other words, he won't enter the open invitation race unless he’s fit to do himself justice. Rector’s last race was run in the spring of 1909, when he beat the pick of Yale’s squad in a dual meet between Cid Eli and Virginia U. at Charlottes- ville. Since then he never has donned a spiked shoe. ‘He was clocked at 923-56.

' One of these defines as ineligible any: player who has played in an inclosed dpark to which admission was charged and on @ team in an organized league. This is aimed at certain Trolley League stars. Several of these might be rung in with the Manufacturers’ League clubs. : On the other hand, amateur players who are this spring granted tryouts by major league clubs, but who are turned Hloose before June 15, are eligible.

Virginia University Graduate | Believes He Can Come Back to His Old Form and Will Enter Indoor Meet Here, if He Is “Right.” this record was erased, because Duffey confessed himself a professional at the time of its making. Dan Kelley’s rec- ord of 93-58 was disallowed on some technicality, virtually leaving Rector’s South Atlantic record of 93-5s the pre- mier performance on the athletic alma- nac today. In the London Olympic games, Rec- tor ran the 100-meter race in 104-5s on three successive days. He was de- feated in the final by Walker of South Africa, who breasted the tape only a few inches ahead of the Virginia U.. hero. However, Rector’s supremacy in the dash events in this country has really never been questioned. He re- tired at the top of the heap. ‘“‘Please Go ’Way,”’ Etc. Incidentally, Rector’s retirement was not voluntary. When he came to St. Louis to practice law three years ago he had every intention of running. But athletics and athletic officials, at the time of Rector’s arrival here, were in a deep’ sleep. Rector, recognized as the premier runner of the day, was not in- vited to join any of the clubs or run in any of the meets. The local officials were. really unaware of his presence, although the papers wrote columns about him. But now Rector hag been invited to help the M. A, C. runners and he’s enthusiastic about his work. He contends that a man who is naturally fast can only improve his time by improving his ‘‘form,’’ especially at the start. Therefore he will teach the Cher- ry Diamond kiddoes the ‘‘Rector’’ start, which differs from all other starts in every particular. Good Material Here. “T believe there are several promising youngsters in the M. A. C. squad,’’ Rector told the Post-Dispatch Thursday. “I already have noticed two who may develop into won- ders and I'll take pleasure in teaching them what few points I can. ° “I'm willing, though. to do this for any young sprinter in St. Louls. All he needs to do is apply to the M. A. C. gymnasium and he can have a trial. ‘‘As for myself, I can’t say that I posi- tively will run again. However, I have worked out twice and am surprised with my- self. If I can attain anything like my old form I'll be on the scratch in that special race in the Coliseum March 15.’’, With Rector lending a helping hand it now looks as though Dr. C. W. Bassett and the M. A. C. officials will give St. Louis the greatest track meet in the history of ath- letics in St. Louis. Martin Delaney, athietic boss of the Chi- bring the flower of his flock here for the big meet. He mentions Belote and Ward, 4 former St. Louisan, as being the fastest 50- yard men in the country. This rounds out a field of eight. if Rector runs, for the invita- tion 50. The full entry is: Belote and Ward ‘of the C. A. A., Reller and Cornet of Cornell U., Lippincott of Penn- sylvania U., McCawley of M. A. C., Coe of Morningside College of Iowa, and Rector. No better field ever faced a start in the West. And this race only is one of many big fea- tures. Magirl Not to Do 146 Pounds in Rowan Bout

| The Art Magirl-Marty Rowan boxing match, scheduled to take place at the Future City Athletic Club, Feb. 2%, may be called off unless Rowan changes his demands that hig opponent do 146 pounds at 3 o'clock. ' “I can do the figure,” Magirl de- Clares, “but I'll be so weak I will not give the members a good show. They all expect this, after our previous bdTTle, and I cannot afford to risk niy aenntge® tation. I will do 150 pounds at 3 o'clock.” Magirl had difficulty doing 148 pounds his previous out with Rowan. The lat- ter had no forfeit up and refused to

By Harry S. ieee Clarence Carmen, riding mate or Har- vey Wilcox of the Mormon team in the bicycle race‘now going on at the Coliseum, was thrown from his wheel last night at 8:15 o’clock and so se- verely injured that he was removed in an ambulance to the city hospital. Be- fore leaving the Coliseum, emergency treatment was given Carmen by Dr. F’. W. Shaffer of 4085 Olive street, who pronounced the rider painfully, but not seriously, hurt. When the accident occurred all the riders on the track were engaged in a spring at a high rate of speed, and just as Carmen made the turn at the upper end of the track leading into the stretch a tire on his machine exploded with a loud crack and the rider crashed to the floor, falling on his head and left shoulder. Immediately behind Car- men, Mitten of the Australian-American team came tearing along, and he, too, went down, pitching headlong onto the back of Carmen. Mitten sustained a badly scraped left arm and leg, but he immediately scrambled to his feet and walked unaided to his tent. Feet Strapped to Pedals. Carmen lay where he had fallen, and the spectators thought him unconscious, Sut his inability to free himself from his machine was due to the fact that his feet were strapped to the pedals and he was unable to disengage them. Carmen was quickly liberated by train- ers and officials, who rushed to his as- sistance, and he was helped to his tent, where he lay until] Dr. Shaffer was called. The doctor advised that Car- men be removed to a hospital for fur- ther examination, and Sergt. A. J. Smith phoned for an ambulance. Carmen’s place on the track was tak- en at once after the spill by Harvey Wilcox, his team mate, who finished out the race for the night, but if Car- men is unable to resume his place in the race at starting time today the tearn will be withdrawn. Sprinter Ryan Falls. Hardly had the excitement of the accident to Carmen and Mitten died away when, at 9:32 o’clock,: Martin Ryan of the Irish went down when his pedal strap broke, but he escaped with nothing more than some scratches. At the time Ryan fell he was holding the pole in the lead and dropped to the floor within the boundary of the track so quickly that all the other riders passed safely by. though three of them had to swing high on the incline to avoid a fall. During the afternoon about two hours after the day’s racing had begun. a nasty spill occurred in which Paddy Hehir of the Aus- tralian-American team, Willie Coburn of the German-American team and George Cameron of the Knickerbocker team went down in a heap. At the time of thie accident the riders were moving along at a 20-mile-an-hour gait, which is not considered very fast. and this probably saved the riders from serious in- jury and they all resumed riding again with- in a few minutes. The average pace for the day was slower than that maintained on Tuesday and when the riders finished last night they had ridden 11 miles and 1 lap less than the day before; but spills and sprints had contributed many thrills. Beck ang Morton Gain Two Laps. The first came when at 8:58 o’clock Beck of the Boobs team ‘“‘jumped” the bunch of riders and shot out far in advance of the fiel4 and continued the sprint until he had regained one of the three laps previously lost by his team. The sprint had exhausted the little fellow and he was immediately re- lieved by his partner. After a good rubdown, Beck returned to the track and, at 4:45 let out another spurt, at the same time calling for Mor- ton, his riding mate, to get ready and come on. Beck continued to tear around the track and opened up a wide space be- tween himself and the flying field behind him. Then a clever pickup by Morton was made, and the latter, by a wonderful burst of speed, overtook the bunch and regained another lap for his team, leaving them sition when the racing came to @ close last night. Total score at end of the second day's riding was 340 miles and seven laps for all the teams excepting Beck and Morton of the Boobs team, who were one lap be- of an outraged nature.

THE CASE OF JOE GANS. OSEPH GANS, champion despite the slight differences of cuticle pigment that caused him to be classed with the darker ‘side of life, taught the boxing world a lesson it seems reluctant to profit from. The teaching of Joseph was involuntary and eventually the price he paid for in- structing mankind was his life. Incidentally, Billy Nolan, one time manager of Bat Nelson, if he has such a thing as a conscience, must sit up at nights pleading with the ghost of Joseph to let him forget and sleep. The Gans lesson briefly is: You can’t make a welterweight inte a lightweight without paying the price. HOW IT HAPPENED. HEN Nelson was matched with Gans for their fight at Goldfield, Nev., the negro champion was g heavy Welterweight and many of his battles had been at over 140 pounds. He agreed to make 133 pounds ringside for Nelson and the day of the fight he weighed in at that figure. In fact, the inexorable Billy Nolan made him weigh ih three times the same day. He insisted, too, on the then unprecedented condition that Gans get on the scales in his ring paraphernalia, adding another two pounds or so, to the utter misery of Gans. Dessicated to mere skin and bone the negro made it—the dry air of Goldfield permitted him to do this. And he fought a good fight and retained his title. But it was the last expiring spark In two battles with Nelson that followed, his exhaust- ed frame offered little resistance to Nel- son. Tuberculosis had gripped him even then and he was an easy knockout vic- tim for the Durable Dane in both con- tests. * + @ ONE POUND WORSE THAN SHYLOCK. OLAN’S last two pounds of flesh virtually sent Gans to his doom. But does the modern fighter see the im handwriting? Nix on the chirography. If he needed the money he'd saw off a leg, open an artery or do any other act equally foolhardy. Everywhere one finds examples of fighters normally a /5,, few pounds too heavy for the class they aspire to. Nature is outraged every time they get into condition. Frequent- VA ly she protests and such farces as the Magirl-Ferns bout, the Kirk-Kilbane contest or the Dixon-Kilbane affair re- A sult. No telling what injury to the fighter is done by the reduction in weight to suit the demands of a champion. * * * TAKE OFF A LEG, ART. NO: Art Magiri, a husky middle- weight, is thinking of doing 4&n- other training stunt, just because he has to have the money. Marty Rowan, who refused to weigh in or post @ Rowan wants him to do 146 pounds for they last met. It took Magirl’s best effort to get down to the figure. Now Rowan wants him to do 148 pounds for their contest Feb. 26. If Magirl does it he risks health, victory and ea future. He gains—well, not much more than coffee and rolls. But, lads, if you've ever had the last notch taken in your belt, you know t the call of the “coffee and” is ME call. And it’s immediate.

Feb. 13.—Changes in rules defining ‘‘amateurs’’ are the most portant matters to be considered at the ty-second annual meeting of the United National Lawn Tennis Association here ' morrow. Opposition ‘has developed te of the proposed amendments on the that they are too drastic and hostile development of the game. The association will choose officers ensuing year, award the national ships for 1913, and act upon the the Ranking Committee and of the Committee on International Competition thorized at the last annual meeting. One of the proposed rules which svelte to cause the most discussion would bar ama- teurs from accepting money, t board or lodging from any hotel, club or sim- jlar organization in connection with which a ae be i a tennis tournament is being held; another . would regulate the conection of with the sale of tennis goods, LITTLE NOTES ABOUT LOCAL MINOR LEAGUERS George Barrett, a brother of Scout Charile Barrett of the Browns, will make his debut in professional baseball this season with the Houston (Texas League) team. George is a shortstop and he had an offer from the Kan- vas City spring. but took the advice of hig brother and played independent ball around St. Louls. Jack McNulty, who handled the indicator in the New York State League last season. has signed a contract with the Three. League, but he has a clause in his contract that if he is able to secure a position as umpire in the Pacific Coast League 10 days prior to the opening of the Three-I. season he can accept it.

Bernice Smith, sporting editor of the Pe oria Star, was in St. Loulse Wednesday to sign Walter Halke, the local lad who held down the first sack for the Peorta (Th I. League) team iast season. Walter was sensation of that league last season and thought he deserved an increase in salary. He sent back his document unsigned. Hoike was sought by the Detroit club last fall, but the owners wouldn’t sell him—one reason why Holke thinks he has a kick coming.
