EDISON REMOVES IE DOUBLE CHIN,

Wizard Inventor Says He Can Brighten Eycs, Peachify Cheeks, Fill Hollow Necks.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, ‘Feb. 27.—The greatest of all inventors. has become a beauty specialist. After revolutionizing industry, thread- ing nations together with. his quadruplex telegraph wire and his electric railway lines, after increasing the value of the country’s products until §$7,000,000,000 are interested An industries founded or touched by his inventions, Thomas A. Edison has removed a double chin. Joking? Not at all. Ask Mrs. , Edi- son. If you have ever met the white-haired master of things electric, you. know his willingness to laugh—it’s usually at him- self. You will not be surprised, then, to learn that Edison smiiingly announced he could brighten eyes, peachify cheeks, fiil out neck hollows and abolish surplus chins—all by his new .and infallible pro- cess, cutting down sleep and food! “I have proved to my wife, at least,” he said, with a twinkle, “that women who would keep young and sler &r must never sleep but six hours. Less would be better, but sia will do. “Funny, isn’t it, how you can talk yourself bjack in the face trying to demonstrate science to a woman? She wont’ listen. Talk beauty to her and her attention sticks like glue. Funny, isn’t it? Anyhow, I’ve proved my point, ban- ished the chin, and taught her to sieep six hours instead of nine. Mrs. Edison is so far the only family disciple of the new beauty theory. Miss Madeleine, recently betrothed to a young inventor, is not bothering much about extra chins, says ber father. Neither are the boys, Theodore and Charlies. ‘But wait,’’ says Papa Edison. ‘““They’ll all come round to my wey of thinking some day.” If the Wizard lost his job as the world’s master inventor, he could easily evalify as an impresario. He dis- ccurses on timbre, overtones, voca: color and production in a way to put Gatti-Casazza to the blush. “I have’ spent a year on the study of music,”’ Edison said, “and [I shall cevote two more years to it. read it and I work it out both.” “| MUST BE BRAVE,” SAYS ‘EXPEORER SCOTT’S WIDOW of Husband's Death Was Conveyed to Her in Mid-Ocean. WALLINGTON, New Zealand, Feb. 27. —Lady Robert Scott, widow of the Ant- arctic explorer, arrived here today on poard of the Aorangi. Lady Scott heard of the death of her husband while she was in midocean off Fiji. As soon as she recovered from the first shock she said: “IT must be brave as my husband would have wished me to be.” Her brother, Lieut. Bruce, and Com- mander Edwards Evans of the British Navy, who brought back the sad news from the Antarctic, met Lady Scott on the pier. 7 —

MORGAN REFUSED INVALID CHAIR FOR FEAR OF PANIC Wanted to View Karnak, Couldn't Walk, and Wouldn’t Seem to Need to Be Carried. LONDON, Feb. 27.—ZIt is told Cairo that at Luxon J. P. party drove to view thé temples in the village of Karnak. He wanted

in Morgan’s to drive around, but the government inspector would not aliow him to do SO, Saying: “Not even the Khedive could drive around. Only the other day we had to refuse similar permission to a Russian prince.”’ “But-I can’t walk around, as I am not well,” protested Morgan. “Oh, but you can be carried around,” was the reply. ‘There are plenty of carrying . chairs for invalids, and there is no objection to that,” Here the secretary intervened and said: “Oh, yes, there is one very great objection. If Mr. Morgan were to be carried around Karnak the news would be telegraphed to America. It would be said he was too ill to use his legs and there would be a great financial crisis.’’ But even that threat did not win the required permission and Morgan had for once to retire defeated. 18 OF PARIS AUTO BANDITS GUILTY: FOUR ACQUITTED Three Women, Two of Them Alleged to Have Been Decoys for Highwaymen, Freed.

+“ ? * *. ONE ROBBER THOUGHT TO HAVE BEEN SHOT “Stool Pigeon” Was Sent Out After Visit to Lumber Office of One-Armed Ped- dler, Seen at Previous Rob- bery Scene. The trail of a one-armed shoestring peddler, believed to be scout for &@ band of yeggmen, led Deputy Sheriff Jules Schoenbein, of St. Louis County) and three city detectives té the St. Louis Lumber Co.'s office, 6240 Easton avenue, Wellston, at 1:45 a. m, Thursday. They had inside information that the yegg- men were coming there to blow the safe. Two of the robbers were obliging enough to keep the appointment. They got there at almost the same moment as the officers. There was a fusillade, in which the two robbers and Detectives McCarthy and Kaiser fired revolvers, while Schoenbein and Special Officer Tiffany used riot guns. The shooting

ee got away. Eighteen Other Robberies, . Eighteen other safe robberies or at- tempted robberies have been committed in and around St. Louis since the middle of last October. The men always have got away, though, twice before, they bave had encounters with officers.

From ‘the imprints left at one point, one of the detectives deduced that the. man was wearing corduroy trousers. __ After the safe.robbery in the Horn Liquor Co. establishment at 218 Chest- nut street last week, it was recalled tnat a one-armed shoestring peddier had been in the office for some time on the. day before the robbery. Got a “Tip” on Robbery. Wednesday morning the one-armed vender called at the lumber office in Wellston, and stayed longer then ap- peared necessary. An employee reported this to Schoenbein, and he communicated with the St. Louis detective department. The detectives put a “stool pigeon’ on the trail, and shortly after midnight they got.a “tip” that the lumber - pany’s safe was to be blown between 4 andtiBa.m. . Night Chief Gillaspy gave McCarthy? sary for going outside the city Iimits,. and they joined Schoenbein near the lumber yard about 1:40 a. m» McCarthy. and Schoenbein, the latter with a riot . gun, waited on the north side of Easton avenue, opposite the lumber office, while Kaiser led Tiffany, who carried a riot gun, into the lumber yard. Kaiser was surprised when he saw a stranger on the other side of the picket fence. An instant later, a revolver was against the detective’s stomach. Kaiser backed off as Tiffany came up. Seeing Tiffany's riot gun, the two rob- bers fired. Katser and Tiffany climbed a lumber pile, and fired from that fort; while McCarthy and Schoenbein ran up and began trying to give the robbers tt “iey de fuga” with their weapons. T fas no light near. Z Wellston residents, turning out, got in the officerfs’ way, and it was not until lanterns were provided that the robberg were traced.

OPPOSED BY LACLEDE GAS

Contended Competitor’s Exten- sions Are Barred, While Union Electric Has Ample Space.

Investigation by Post-Dispatch re- porters reveals a ‘‘gazipe’’ in the under- ground conduit bill pending in the City Council by which the Union Electric Light and Power Co. would have a monopoly on the streets in the down- town conduit district, and rival com- panies would be barred from «niarg- ing their service to compete with Union Electric. It was found that the bill was intro- duced in the Coungil by Councilman L. E. Lehmberg at the request of the Union Electric Light and Power Co., and that the measure was drawn for the company by Ben Schnurmacher, its attorney. The bill containing the gazipe is pend- ing before the Public Improvement Com- mittee of the Council, of which Lehm- berg is chairman, and it was planned to report it favorably Friday and rec- ommend its passage as a substitute for a similar bill introduced by the Board of Public Improvements, which did nor contain the objectionable provision. A request made to Lehmberg for a public hearing before the bill be reported oui was refused. Hiere Is Provision Opposed. This is the section in the bill which ferms the gazipe: “Provided, however, that the Board (Board of Public Improve- ments) shall not consider the ap- plication of nor issue permits to any person, corporation, or asso- ciation for conduit or duct facili- ties in any street, alley or public place in or under which there shall be at the time a conduit or duct, or conduits or ducts already constructed, nor shall the Board consider any application for or issue any permits for conduit, duct or manhole facilities in any street, alley or public place which was considered at any hearing of ‘the Board prior to the passage of this ordinance.” Hygo A. Wurdack, president of the Cupples Station Light and Power Co. mailed special delivery letters Thursday to the members of the City Council de- ‘manding that a public hearing on the pill be held before it was placed on its sage. A conference of officials of the Laclede _ Gas Light Co. will be held Thursday and the cOmpany’s counsel will be asked for an opinion on the effect of this particular clause in the bill. Whatever means are considered necessary to pro- tect the interests of the company will be taken, following the conference, President C. L. Holman told a Post- Dispatch reporter. District Formed 15 Years Ago. The underground wire district in St. Louis was established 15 years ago by ’ the Keyes ordinance, passed by the As- “ pembly. The district includes the terri- tery bounded by the Mississippi River, Spruce street, Twenty-second street, and Wash street. The wire-using companies were ordered to place their wires un- ground in this district. On a specified day the companies were -Yequired to come before the board and @iesignate what streets they desired to fuse and the amount of conduit space ‘they would use. No further extensions were allowed after that day, the object being to fix the district specifically and Ealoces the streets from being periodi- at cally torn up. * I Since that time St. Louis has become s i j ; (J

Much larger and the demand for wire Bervice much greater. The companies which applied for space at that time did not foresee the wonderful growth of the wity and did not provide for enough @pace to accommodate present needs. aa To allow more conduit space and to _» ®@nable the competing companies to re- . @djust their wire’ service the Board of Public Improvements introduced a bill in the City Council in June, 1912, al- lowing the board to hold another hearing _* nm the conduit systems and grant the ‘~ space needed by the companies at pres- ent. Competitors Fear It Bara Them. The bill was referred to the Public . Improvements Committee of the Council, and is still before the committee. The bill containing the gazipe is planned to take the place of the bill introduced by the board, and, in effect, it is held by * the rival companies that it would effec- _ & tually close the streets in the downtown © district to the Laclede Gas Light Co., oe and the Cupples Station Light and : Power Co., the principal competitors of Union Electric. The bill also would apply to Unjon _ , Slectric and would prevent it from en- Fe. a larging its service, but since the dis- a Ay (trict was established, Union Electric has absorbed five or six smaller companies = Pek having conduit space under the oki 2 _ Keyes ordinance, and the aggregate - Space allotted to these companies fur- ' fish sufficient room for Union Electric _ Wires, according to its competitors. The ie other companies which have not ab- ' sorbed competing concerns, have only RS the original space granted and are ag - barred from getting more by the terms _ of the pending ordinance.

power to fix the salaries of members of the St. Louis Police Department. “The salaries of the police will not be interfered with,” replied Hay, “‘until the Municipal Assembly is in a position to act on that question. There may be a referendum vote on the home rule laws before they finally go into effect.” Would Suspend the Law. Under the initiative and referendum, the home rule bills or any other bills vassed by this Legislature can be sub- mitted to a vote of the people at the next general election, in November, 1914, Pending the submission of the question the operation of the law as adopted by tre Legislature is suspended for two years, Opponents of Gov. Major’s public uti- lities bill,. which. has passed -both houses, are threatening to invoke the initiative to stay its operation and this is true also of the proposed ccunty unit local option law. The police lobby, aided by Joe Tall, former chief clerk of the House, se- cretly fought the home rule pills from their inception. The wgitation for in- voking the referendum comes frcm po- lice sources, aS no complaint of legis- lative action -on these ineasures has come from the interior cf the Staie. Neither Gov. Major nor other state officials believe there ia the slightest danger that the Republicans or Demo- crats will encourage a ‘ovement to refer the home rule laws to a popuiar vote after they had been _ sv:-ported with practical unanimity »y tne Legis- lature. i ee '

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH.

in the event of a referendum vote, a complete copy of the bill as passed by the Legislature must be printed on the separate ballot provided for the proposed constitutional amendments. The utilities bill contains 4,000 words and if set in solid agate type would lengthen the bal- lot to the extent of approximately 200 feet. The home rule and county unit local option bills would add 2% feet more, to say nothing of the space necessary for the 12 or 15 @mendments usually sub- mitted to the voters. As the voter, in St. Louis for example. is not allowed more than three minutes to prepare his ballot, it would be « phys- ical impossibility for him to peruse the laws he is expected to pass upon at the polls. The publication of the ballot, so arranged, would cofsume at least two pages. of space in the newspapers.

Override Veto, Then Relent. OLYMPIA, Wash., Feb. 27.—Having passed an appropriation over the Gov- ernor’s veto, the House reconsidered its action and voted, 56 to 40, to expunge from its records all reference to what had been done.

IMONEY TRUST NOT POSSIBLE, MORGAN FTTER DECLARES Banking House Tells Pujo Com- mittee Any Evils Are Due to Our Money System.

By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Feb., 27.—A general denial of the existence, or possibility of a ‘‘Money Trust,’’ was presented to the House Money Trust Committee today in a long letter from J. P. Morgan & Co. On the receipt of the Morgan letter, Chairman Pujo gave out a letter writ- ten to Morgan & Co., saying that the invitation to Morgan & Co. had been extended Jan. 27 and that the commit- tee had been at work on its report for a month. , “Zour memorandum,” the reply con- cluded, ‘‘manifestly. comes too late: to be of value.”’ The Morgan ietter laid at the door of the present banking and currency laws the responsibility for any ‘‘concentra- tion” of money and credit that may ex- ist. In its conclusions as to the comniit- tee’s activities, the letter said: ‘We venture to submit the considera- tion that in a strong public opinion, such as exists in this country, there lies the greatest safeguard of the com- munity—always assuming that Congress will evolve a basic system of banking which is scientifiec and sound—as at the present tinfe, ours admittedly is not. ‘The public, that i# the depositors, are the cnes who intrust bankers with such in- fluence and power as they today have in every civilized land and the public is unlikely to intrust that power to weak or evil hands. “Your counsel asked more than one witness whether the present power held by bankers in this country would not be a mena@ if it lay in evil hands. Such inquiry answers itself. All power, physi- cal, intellectual, financial, or political, is dangerous in evil hands. If Congress were to fall into evil hands the results might be deplorable. But to us it seems as little likely that the citizens of this country will fill Congress with rascals as it is that they will entrust the leader- ship of their business and financial af- fairs to a set of clever rogues.” The letter says that such concentration of money in New York as has occurred is due to the “antiquated banking sys- tem”’ and the natural law which “in every country creates some one city as the great financial center.” That part of the money trust resolu- tion declaring that it is ‘‘generally be- lieved”’ that groups of financiers ‘‘create, avert and compose panics’’ was attacked particularly by the letter. Morgan and Co. set forth that any withholding of money or credit by one man in any mar- ket would be “promptly relieved by the automatic flow of credit from some al- together foreign source.”’ Panic Not Artificial. ‘‘We regret,’’ said the letter, ‘‘that a helief so incredible, so abhorrent and so harmful to the country should for a moment have fourd lodgment any- where. And we welcome your invita- tion aS an opportunity for us to state that to the extent of our observations and experience, there is not even a ves- tige of truth in the idea that in whole or in part the financial convulsion of 1907 was brought on through the design of any man or men.,”’ The letter further pointed out that the individuals ‘‘to whom is attributed the power to create panics,’’ were the ones to suffer most by the severe shrinkage in values of securities during the 1907 anic. Ago support the contentian that a conkrol of money and credits existed, thé letter said, the committee has considered tables of “so-called inter- locking directorates fro which ex- ceedingly mistaken inferences have been publicly drawn.” The letter said these directors represent only one- quarter of the boards upon which they serve. “It is preposterous to suppose,” said the letter, “that every interlocking director has full control in every or- ganization with which he is~ con- “nected.” “Perhaps the greatest harm,” the letter continued, “in the presentation referred to lay in the further unwar- ranted inference, to which nas been given wide publicity, that the vast sum of $25,000,000,000 was in cash or liquid form, subject to the selfish us@ or abuse of individuals. Such an idea excites the public mind to de mand the correction of a fancied sit- uation, which in our mind does no* and cannot exist.” “Concentration Necessary.” The letter sets forth that the banking facilities of the country, instead of be- ing centralized in New York, have been scattered. Concentration of banking resources by mergers, the letter said, has been made absolutely necessary by the demand for banking facilities to handle large issues‘of securities. The same cause is declared responsible for the combfMmation of banks to handle public issues of securities. Bankers have been led to sit as directors and exercise authority in industrial corporations, the letter explained, through the ‘bankers’ “moral responsibility’ for the corpora- stion securities which he has engaged to market. The letter defends private banking houses as against corporate banks, de- claring that the individual responsibility ties for partners tn private banking con- cerns was more powerful than the dits- seminated responsibilities of stock- holders in corporate banks. SINGULAR CLAUSE IN WILL WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—Talbert Lanston, a well-known inventor, who died a few days ago, left in his will a strange provision for his son’s pro- tection.

eatianie “In my campaign speeches and later in iny inaugural addresses,” said the Gov- ernor, “I took the position that a work- iren’s compensation law would be a most important step in the direction of progressive legislation. My opinion !.as not changed. _ “There is a measure before the legis- lative committees which embodies the result of the commission appointed two years ago for the purpose of investigat- ing this question. I know only in a Seneral way the provisions of that bill. It seems there is opposition to it on several grounds, but I am sure a happy medium can be found. “The objectionable features of the bill, if there are any, can be removed. In this, as in other matters, I have trusted implicitly to the judgment of the Legis- lature. “It is my jurgment that when the Legislature has finished its labors three weeks hence it will be found that prac- tically all the Democratic platform pledges have been redeemed. I teel certain a workmen’s compensation act will be among the accomplishments.” Senator Greene, chairman of the f£en- ate Judiciary Committee, to which the workmen's compensation measure has been referred, promised today that he would call a meeting of his committee in a day or two to go over the whole subject. He was glad to observe, he suid, that a great paper like the Post- Dispatch had undertaken to rearcuse public interest in the matter. “It is my opinion,” said Senator Gitene, “that the measure will be re- rerted out with amendments to meet some of the objections urged against it. If this is done, a Starting point of the legislation will have been established. There is no doubt of a sincere purpose cn the part of the Legislature to adopt & workmen’s compensation law and I am afraid that what we regard as ex- cellent provisions in the bill have been purposely ‘knocked’ by damage suit law- vers.”’ President Wood of the State Ic«dera- tion of Labor, who was here today, thinks the bill can be amended tv mee} the requirements of wage earners, but

SAPOON MEN SUED. FOR $10,000 BY PARENTS OF YOUTH Contend -Asphyxiation of Thom- as Eagle Jr. Resulted From Drinking in Wellston.

Thomas .Eagle and his wife, Jose- Phine, of 6419 Derby avenue, Wellston, filed suit Thursday against George H. Muchling, Jacob Strassny and George Meyerrieks, proprietors of the Wellston Liquor Co., for $10,000 damages for the death of their son, Thomas Eagle Jr., a minor. The young man was found dead in the Kitchen of the Eagle home. the morning of Dec. 5, 1912. His body lay in front of a gas range with his head resting on a lowered oven door, dil- rectly beneath which a gas jet was open. His parents contend that he had been made drunk by wine bought at the de- fendant’s saloon, 6116 Easton avenue, trat he fell across the range door and accidentally opened the gas jet and that l:is stupor from liquor was so deep tuat he was unable to arise. The liquor company, the Eagles-al- lege, sold three quarts of wine t? their son and another minor the night of Dec. 4, although it had been warned to sell no liquor to Thomas Eagle Jr., without written permission from his perents. No such permission had been issued to the young man, the Eagles assert. The death of young Eagle was a mys- tery. The theory of intentional death was advanced, but .,his parents emphati- cally affirmed their belief that he had fallen asleep with his head resting on {le oven door and had accidentally opened the gas jet.

Discoverer of Serum Asserts That All Negotiations With the Claimant Are Off.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, Feb. 27.—How Albert von Hoffman, well-to-do St. Louis aeronaut and publisher, has lost, or is threatened with the loss of the opportunity of put- ting Dr. Frederick Franz Friedmann’s consumption ‘“‘cure’’ on the market, was related here today, following the dis- closures that he had been in negotia- tions with the German scientist, who has just arrived in this city. According to Von Hoffman, who has been unable to get in conference with Friedmann, the hitch comes through the fact that he was in Mexico with his family, his address unknown to his busi- ness associates, when a letter reached his St. Loujs office, demanding accep- tance of certain changes in the contract by Jan. 2%, on penalty of having the negotiations called off. Von Hoffman asserts he did not get the letter until many days after the time limit set, but he considers‘the agreement binding. How Contract Was Revealed. It was Dr. Albert E. Sterne of Indian- apolis who revealed the existence of the Von Hoffman contract with Dr. Fried- mann, which was conditioned on the proposition that the effectiveness of the “oure’’ be demonstrated beyond reason- able doubt. Dr. Sterne happened to be one of 8 party in the smoking car on a Pu'lman train bound to New York three days ago. Dr. Friedmann and his remedy ‘yume up for discussion and Dr. Sterne, as a physician, was:appealed to for his opinion.’ He oxpressed thé opinion that the effectiveness of the cure nad not yet been definitely established. This aroused Von Hoffman, a member of the party, and in the ensuing discus - sion he told Dr. Sterne of the con- tract. The following morning he again brought up the subject and showed the contract to Dr. Sterne. Von Hoffman said he had been in Germany last year on business :m con- nection with aviation, when he learned that a cousin of his wife, who lived in Germany, was raising animals for Ir. Friedmann’s experimentatiou. That started the trail. He followed it to the doctor himself, found that a tubercu- logis ‘“‘cure’” was in process of devel- opment and immediately broacned a scheme for putting it on the American rarket if it proved to be of value. The German financiers were rot to be considered in the same breatn witn generous, ample American capital, he said. and so Dr. Friedmann was in- clined to cast his lot with American business. According to Von Hoffman’s account lte Dr. Sterne, these preliminaries led to a satisfactory contract which would mean a big profit if the cure was meritorious. Friedmann Gives Explanation, The story was taken to Dr: Fried- mann,’ and he, through the interpreta- ; tion of Mr. Hundt, his secretary, gave a ready explanation. He said he had known Von Hoffman, and that he had There had been a tentative contract, Hundt said, but this had been broken off. The doctor exhibited a letter by himself to Von Hoffman, bearing date of Jan. ll, 1913, written in German, and setting iiforth, as he explained it, his financial conditions and terms in the negotiations. What these conditions were he did not say, but in the letter he warned the American that they must be accepted unconditionally by wire by Jan. 2, and later by letter together with a sworn consider everything off. words of the letter, he should consider himself ‘‘no longer bound.’' The time limits were reached and passed, he said, and Von Hoffman had not accepted the terms or answered. That ended the St. Louis man as far as Dr. Friedmann was concerned. “Von Hoffman is in New York,’’ he paid, “and has written, chile and tele- phoned twice, but I have refused to answer and have refused to see him. There is no contract between us. We have no further relations. I am here to demonstrate the value of my treatment. I wish to be let alone to do that. I Want to give health. I am not a busi- ness man to sellit, nora lawyer to make contracts. [ am just a doctor. I want to show that my discovery is all that I believe it to be. I want to heal the sick. After that, business; but the treatment first.”’ Von Hoffman Gives Version. According to Von Hoffman he sent up his card to the Friedman apartment in the Waldorf and received in return the direction that the he state his -busi- ness. He sent this note: “I returned from Mexico a few days ago and found your registered letter of Jan. 11, 1913, awaiting me. My business, Which you now ask that I state before seeing you ig in regard to the contract which T have with you. I await your answer."’ In response the envelope came back with ‘“‘wait’’ bine penciled upon it. The injunction to wait caused Von Hoffman to leave the Waldorf im- mediately, first penning a note which fave his hotel address and in addition Said: “I shall expect to hear from your to- day.”’ Dr. Friedmann did not communicate with him.

EATING KRAUT AND DRINKING, DUTY OF STOVE SALESMAN Culver Testifies in Receiver Case City Drummer Wasn’t Supposed to Sell Goods. One-of the functiong of a city sales- man for a range company is to “eat sauerkraut and drink booze,” accora- ing to the testimony of Walter I. Culver of 8654 Shaw avenue Thurr- day, in his suit for a receiver for the Never Break Range Co., of which he was formerly the president. One of Culver’s complaints was that the officers of the company, whom he accuses of conspiring against him and putting Adam Karr of Belleville in his place as president, after taking charge, dismissed the city salesman. On cross-examination he was asked by Wil- liam C. Conmett, vice-president and counsel of the company, if the city sales- man had not been drinking and if it was not a fact that he had not turned in an erder for three months. Culver answered that the man was not supposed to bring in orders. His busi- ness was to visit the trade and eat Sauer kraut and ‘drink booze’ with the company's customers, he testified. Culver admitted he had struck Rufus R. Clabaugh, treasurer of the company, on account of a telephone conversation between Clabaugh and Karr over Cul- ver’s request for a job for his son. Culver testified that Clabaugh called him a liar, whereupon he struck him in the eye. He then sent out for a rem: edy for Clabaugh to apply to prevent the eye from becoming black. The defendants .assert reorgan‘zation was necessary. They deny there was a conspiracy. Doctors Said He Would Dig A Friend's Advice Saves Life I wish to speak of the wonderful eure that I have received from your noted Swamp-Root, the great kidney and bladder cure. Last summer I was taken with severe pains in my back and sides. I could not breathe with- out difficulty. I tried all the differ- ent doctors from far and near, but they said it was no use to doctor as I would die anyway. I was at the end of my rope and was so miserable with pain and the thought that I must die that words cannot teH how I felt. One day a friend told me of the won- derful help she had ‘received from Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. She gave me one of your pamphlets which I read and determined to try Swamp- Root. After taking half a bottle I felt better. Have now taken ten bot- tles and am well as ever was, thanks to Swamp-Root. I wish to tell all suf- fering people that have kidney, liver or bladder trouble, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is the best medicine on the market. ~ All persons doubting this statement can write to me and I will answer them directly.

PRESCRIPTION KILLS BOY Drug Clerk Who Used Mercury for Calome!l Is Held. RICHMOND, Va., Feb. 27.—Thomas W. McCrary, a drug clerk, was ar- rested here, charged with murder in having caused the death of Robert Lee Masuier, a 4-year-old child. McCrary compounded one and one- half grains of bichloride of mercury, instead of calomel which a physician insisted, before the Coroner's jury, he had ordered, when giving the prescription by telephone.

JUNGLE SCENE PAINTED TO MAKE SNAKE HAPPY Bronx Zoo Officials Believe 22- Foot Python Will Eat in New Surroundings. NEW YORK, Feb. 27.—With a dozen strong men Curator Raymond Ditmars went into the snakehouse at the Bronx Zoo yesterday and opened the door of a cage containing Selina, a 22-foot yython. While she dozed a noose was slipped over her neck. Selina has not eaten in 19 months. Freshly killed pigs and other tempting bits have been brushed aside. The tying of the noose about her neck aroused her to fury. More nooses were got about her and Selina was hauled through the doorway and she flopped to the floor of the house and began a series, of contortions. Keeper Michacl ©' Keefe got too close to Selina’s tail and was knocked through a window. Next John Hastings was sent sprawling. For two hours the men fought and tugged before Selina was got into another cage 150 feet way. Then the men went-back for latima, a 24-foot python who weighs £65 pounds. Fatima is tractable. The change in snake quarters was made so that the old quarters may be atcorated. On the rear of the cage will be painted a jungle scene and a flowing river. Selina’s refusal to eat is due to homesickness, it is thought.

1 TONEWSBOY' OF POST-ISPATC Star of Play, Once Paper Seller, Will Entertain Them Again at Theater.

No dramatic star could have received a more enthusiastic greeting than that given by the Post-Dispatch newsboys Wednesday, night’ to Buford Hampden, a former London newsboy, who is ap- pearing as the boy star in the “Blue Fird”’ at the Saubert Theater this week. Their noisy greetings of appreciation ceme at the proper places during the evening, so that for the grown-ups “downstairs” the pleasure of seeing Maurice Maeterlinck’s beautiful poetic drama was not marred in the least. Of course, once in awhile, when some little fellow could contain himself no longer, he would “bust out’? with an audible expression of appreciation, but immediately would come silencers of “Aw, cut it out, cut it out,” or ‘Put on the soft pedals, you,”’ from the crowded gallery. “Nix on That Stuff.” One voice from close to the roof shouted, “Nix on that stuff, Heine.’’ He had spotted the chief offender sitting in the middle of the front row. Heine had found his blue bird of happiness. There was nothing pathetic-looking about Hei- re. And this likely was not his first experience with happiness. Heine was ‘fall there’’ inside his yellow and black striped jersey. He didn’t have to worry about wheth- er “‘Willlam’’ would be there with the ‘imousine when the show was over to keep him out of the rain, and he wasn’t worried about the stock market as he l.oked down on the audience below him. packed with ‘‘swell guys” in their even- ing clothes. e Has It, Doesn’t Know It. He had what ali humanity is searcl:- ing for, but he did not know it, just as little Tyltyl and his siter Myltyl do not know until they come to appreciate that the happiness of which they are in search is themselves and their own homes. Buford Hampden, the little hero of the play, who once sold the London Times, the Express, the Daily Mail and other British newspapers, will entertain his Post-Dispatch newsboy friends § again Thursday and.Friday nights at.the Shu- bert through the courtesy of the com- pany’s manager, Nat Roth.

Don't miss “The Just and the Unjust,” that wil! begin in the Fiction Section of next Sunday’s Post-Dispatch. Critics consider it just as good as his earlier work, “The Prodigal Judge,’’ which had the distinction of being a best seller for nearly two years. AUTO BURNS IN STREET J. Arthur Anderson’s Car De- stroyed When Pipe Breaks. A touring car owned by J. Arthur An- derson, a laundryman at 3970 Olive street, and driven by James Shirk, a chauffeur, was burned Wednesday evening at Natural Bridge road and Florissant avenue. The chauffeur had taken Anderson to his home in Nor- mandy Heights, and was returning the car to the garage. When he reached Florissant avenue the machine stopped, and when crank- ing the engine the pipe connecting the gasoline tank and tiie carburetor broke. The leaking gasoline caught fire in- stantly.

keynote of the play. Mr. Browne has so trained the players that their sus- tained lamentation becomes an unfor- gettable cry of sorrow and _ hopeless homelessness. The somber significance of their speech fills the soul with an unutterable compassion. They have lost all that is worth hev- ing in life. They are soon to become the slave-chattels of their country’s con- querors. There is one moment in their performance when, prostrate on the earth, they beat the soil of their native land with helpless feminine hands, chanting: a noble farewell to the dead Trojan men of their loving. This mo- ment attains the purest heights of trag- ic sublimity. Its complete poetic beauty was magnificently . realized. In this especial achievement the part of Hecuba was finely portrayed by Ellen Van Volkenburg. Those composing the chorus were Elizabeth Bingham, Alice Gerstenberg Genevieve Griffin, Marjorie Janes and Miriam Kiper. Each of these players won the sincerest honors. But, standing out from the group in the fullest beauty of tragedy, was the Trojan woman of Miriam Kiper’s pictur- ing. This yeung player possesses a deeply emotional voice of the truest tragic utterance. Her face is the face of a mourning Rachel, instinct with the spirit of well-nigh unspeakable woe. Her temperament is splendidly attuned to tragedy. Her bodily movements are of the utmost eloquence. She seemed ab- ¢olutely unconscious of her audience, I could not but believe, studying her en-, dearor, that the fabric of a great player of loftily poetic roles was here seen in the shaping. Before this. little group of despoiled Trojan women is toid the full story of the fate of Troy, doomed to immemorial calamity by wayward Helen's beauty.

"The plot in its execution was so bar- ous as to be without parallel in the of modern civilized warfare. "It is the story of a prearranged bat- ein which the coir-mon object of the on both sides was the murder of ousands of loyal Madero soldiers— £ a ive men who thought they were giving » their lives for the cause of their nt, but .who instead were being eres to execute a plot intal treachery.

JAMES. 4 WAS twelve o’clock in the dead of night T And the deckhands all asleep; A bull frog on a big black log Sang the song they call “Knee Deep,” When suddenly there came a sound “Way up on the Texas deck, And the wireless clerk rolled out of- bed And nearly broke his neck. The Captain and the mate turned out, For that zippety, zingety, crackly thing “Man the life-belts,” cried the mate, There's something wrong with this here hulk And I guess we’ll all cash in.” “Belay the guff,’ the Captain cried (He once had béen to sea) “That noise you hear is the wireless thing On the Texas deck,” says he.

a the enemy’s position, wrecking public buildings and homes and killing scores of persons outside the danger zone. ~“Tt will be recalled that during the bombardment the correspondents’ re- marked the seeming disregard of the Federal gunners for the Diaz position. “Diaz and Gen. Montdragon, his second in command, were not allowed to leave the Arsenal during the fighting lest they be killed. “And in spite of his understnding with Huerta, Diaz was wary, having profited by his experience at Vera Cruz, when Gen. Beltran, after promising to join him, captured him instead. “According to the American's inform- ant, none of the officials of the Porfirio Diaz regime were in the conspiracy, which was planned and carried out by the artillery. Maj. Rafael Romero Lo- pez and 20 artillery captains and lieuten- ants were entrusted with executing the details of the plot. “Gen. Angeles was not a party to the conspiracy, the rebels realizing that his loyalty and honor were impeccable. Blanquet Has No Standing. “Gen. Blanquet, who, acting on orders of Huerta, made the actual arrest of Madero in the Palace, took no part in the fighting, and today he has no stand- ing with the administration. he has had no success. He waited two hours yesterday in the ante-room of Diaz's headquarters, but was refused an interview by the rebel leader.”’ ciasiarciniaanggesitielly 7 ZAPATA REBELS ARE EXECUTED By Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, Feb. 27.—Seven Zapat- is eight miles from the capital were captured today and executed. The rura- les encountered the rebels at dawn and defeated them. Later Juan Varges, commander of the rurales, sent a mes- sage to President Huerta in which he sald: “T have the honor to report the execu- tion of seven bandits taken in outlawry and rebellion.” Huerta replied, highly commending the prompt and efficient action of the of- ficial. Confidence in the Huerta administra- tion daily appears to wax stronger if faith is to be placed fin the Government reports as to the rapid vanishing of the rebel spirit throughout the republic. Plots and conspiracies against the Pro- visional President still are talked of, but there is at least an outward appearance of harmony between the leaders of the new regime. Provisional President Huerta and Felix Diaz seem to be work- ing together to bring about general peace which both express themselves as ardently desiring. Oreseo Supports Huerta. The collapse of the revolutionary movements, both north and south, ap- pears to be imminent. The latest ad- herent to the Government ts Gen. Oros- co, who has sent a telegram declaring his allegiance.

Venustiano Carranza, former Governor of the State of Coahuila, according to dispatches received here, has not suc- ceeded in gathering general support for his attitude against Huerta. A further adhesion to the Government was registered last night when Rafael Tapia, a former Chief of the Rirai Guards, in the Stateof Tlaxcala, with 600 of his men, signified his desire to surren- der. Tapia conferred with the Federal Minister of War and was told to return for another conference, bringing with him Antonio Hidalgo, a candidate for the governorship of Tlaxcala, who is in rebellion.

gency tories, 32 West 25th Street, t- = Vac STOVEPIPE STARTS $60,000 BLAZE IN | ARMY DARKENS THE PAPER CO. PLANT Fire in Crescent Concern Routs Girls From Nearby Second Street Building.

A stovepipe passing through the second fioor of the Crescent Paper Co.'s four- story building at 215 North Second street, became overheated at 7:30 a. m. Thurs- uay, causing a fire which destroyed the stock, valued by the company at $50,000, and damaged the building to the extent of at least $10,000, according to the fire- r.en’s estimate. The fire originated where the stovepipe passed through the floor. Lieut. John Moynihan and Pipeman Ernest Kosenjan of Engine Company No. 15, were overcome when working in the dense smoke on the third floor. They were dragged out by other fire- men and taken to the Woodward & Tier- nan Printing Co.'s warehouse at 211 N. Second street. » There they lay uncon- ecious about 10 minutes. Both returned to wark. So thick and pungent was the smoke arising from the burning paper on the three upper floors that the fire- nen had great difficulty in find- ing out where the blaze was and reach- ing it with water. Once when they thought they had the fire under control it suddenly blazed up again more flierce- ly than before. Government officials in the .14 Post- office building at Third and Olive streets then vacated their offices and let the firemen run lines of hose through the building and attack the tire from: above. <A. short time later the fire was again brought under con- trol, but by that time the roof and part of the second floor had fallen in and the stock on all three floors had been burned or ruined by water. First Arrivals Kindle Stove. The first three employes to arrive at the building Thursday were D. L. Dan- iels, shipping clerk, and A. L. Meyr and Arthur Scholde, order clerks. They started a fire in the big coal stove and went about their duties.” Ten minutes later, Scholde happened to look up and saw a tiny blaze play- ing around the stovepipe at the ceil- ing. He ran to a fire alarm box while Meyer and Daniels rushed upstairs, only to find that the blaze was spreading rapidly over the stock on that floor. By the time the fire department appar- atus arrived, the fire had virtually raced all over the upper part of the building. Adjoining the paper company’s build- ing on the south was a vacant, four- story building. On the north is a three- story building, occupied by the Hop- finger & Roth Perfume Co., the Roth Printing Co., and the Art Electric Co. The stock of the perfume company was damaged about $3000, by, smoke and water. __. John Butts of 2536 Slattery street, pres- ident of the Crescent Paper Co., is out of the city. Employes of the firm said about $30,000 of insurance was carried on the stock. The building the company occupied is owned by the Eugenia Blair estate and is valued at about $20,000. The police could not ascertain whether it was in- sured.

NEGRESSES VOTES NUAD 10 CAPITAL Sallies Forth to Meet “Hikers” and Causes Consternation in “‘Gen.’’ Jones’ Ranks.

By Associated Press. WASHINGT ON, Feb. vading army of “hikers’’ from New York under command of ‘General’ Rosalie Jones, within a few hours of their goal, leaders of the suffragist cause at national hneadquarters were aflutter with preparations for their re- ception. The Executive Committee has been increased by the arrival and dis- appearance of Mrs. Olive Schultz, the official scout for the “hikers,’’ who dashed into the city in a high-powered automobile, reported “all well,’’ and promptly dashed out again. The ‘“‘hikers’’ are expected to reach Hyatsville, Md., tonight, and, according to Mrs. Schultz, they are to be “roy- ally entertained’’ in that town. Mrs. Schultz added, however, that the march- ing suffragists would not devote the evening to social diversion, but would retire early in order to appear tomor- row fresh and ready for the speaking program that has been mapped out. Army of Negressesz Routed. Five negresses of liberal physica! pro- portions and ranging in color from jet to gingerbread came nearer routing the suffrage army near Elkridge, Md., than all of the rats and mice that have been conjured up to torture the suffragists with. Each one of the five carried a huge banner. In capitals were inscribed these words: “Votes for Colored Women.”’ Simply that and nothing more. SUFFRAGETTES IN COURT FOR FELONY LONDON, Feb. 27.—Militant suffra- gists connected with the burning of buildings in public parks are Hable to ‘penal servitude for life.’’ This was the announcement today of Travers Humphreys, public presecutor in ask- ing the Magistrate at the Kaw Police Court to commit for trial Miss Liltian Lenton and Miss Joyce Locke. The two were arrested February 20 for setting fire to a pavilion in the Kew Botanical Gardens. ‘“T make my charge,” faid Hum- phreys, “under the Malici-s Damage Act, which makes it a felony punnsh- able by penal servitude for life for any person to fire a building belonging to the King or devoted to public use.” At the hearing today only Miss Locks appeared, Miss Lenton having been re- leased owing to ill health after carrying out a hunger strike. Humphreys said the prison authorities had reported that she would have died unless released. The magistrate protested that the pro- ceedure was an extraordinary o1e. Prisoners, he continued, sometimes are released from prison but not from cus- tody. He immediately issued a warrant for her re-arrest. Miss Locke, who also started a hunger strike while detained, was forcibly fed. She pleaded today that she was too ill to conduct her defense, but the case proceeded and she was committed for trial at the Assizes. Bail was fixed at $500 on the promise of the accused that she would refrain from any agitation pending her appearance before the jury. 277.—With the in-

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, THURSDAY EVENING FEBRUARY 27, 1913, ——— > me age : | 7 . | : ’ Se ; T.LOUISPOST-DISPATCH] _— DANGEROUS IGNORANCE. | LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE tert , s eS ONE SCHOOL BURNED EVERY DAY. The St. Louis School Board has appealed to the Supreme Court from Judge Miller’s decision hold- ‘ng them subject to the fire-escape law. It is to be hoped that other and worthier purposes are ‘pursued .by them with the same persistence with which they have resisted the reasonable demands of the public relative to fire precautions. Figures whose accuracy is accepted by the press show that on an average one schoolhouse is burned a day in the United States. Not a few of them, of course, are small rural schools, but the moment when flames will cause panic and death in a large city school cannot be foreseen. ) St. Louis has mang fine, new school buildings of fireproof construction, but some of an older, more inflammable type are still retained. In these the excellent firo drills are not a sufficient precaution. Fire escapes must be provided, not with a view to their utilization in fire drills, as a correspondent suggests, but to sefve as an out- side means cf exit from upper rooms, should flames cut off exit °; inside stairways. — — = + —_— SS = . PUBLICITY BROUGHT JOY. If one half the world realized how the other half suffered it would bestir itself to alleviate the suffering. This was apparent in the prompt response to an appeal made recently in the Post- Dispatch for gifts to furnish indoor recreation to the patients of the Koch Hospital for Consump- tives. Within a few days sympathetic persons had sent to the hospital two pianos and a piano- talking machine, and a number of music house had offered to put and

Is he a fool? has to deal in court: ous. It invites disaster. The Supreme Court was good to the Terminal] combine. It permitted if to keep its termins] combination on condition that it stripped of monopoly charges and practices. The penalty for failing to strip it of monopoly abuse is dissolution. It’ would be calamitéus to the Terminal if the ignorance of its attorney should lead it to per- sist in continuing what Mr. Wickersham de- scribes as an “tinlawfu! charge.” The incoming national administration is pledged not only to destroy monopoly, but to punish personal guilt. | Not only is there in the Terminal situation a Terminal combime, but there is a coal traffic combine upon which the Wilson administration can apply its antimonopoly policies. | It would be wise for the Terminal Railroad managers to instruct their attorney on the sub- ject of the bridge arbitrary. adi dp i is

Those “modern Joans of Arc’ who are marchinz to Washington may not get burned, like their famous prototype. But they may get “stung.” = -_ SS Se UNITED RAILWAY EARNINGS. “The United Railways has not been earning $700,000 a year,” says Councilman Espenschield. Mr. Espenschield speaks of the so-called net earnings over all expenses and fixed charges, pvt he should glance at a copy of the company’s last annual report. In it he will find these figures: Gross income ++. $12,251,091 Operating expenses 8,480,723 NET income 3,770,368 Not one dollar of this net income was used to pay dividends to stockholders. Instead, two- thirds of it disappeared as interest on more than $50,000,000 of bonded indebtedness—much of it water. The financial follies of the United Railways ex- cite no sympathy from the citizens of St. Louis. That corporation, as its own figures show, and the reports of the Public Utilities Commission em- phasize, gets enough income not only to pay profits to shareholders, but also to provide more cars and better service for its patrons. It must not expect the people of St. Louis to be satisfied with present conditions in order that the finan- clers who gobbled the watered securities can realize returns on them. = = ree

The seat-for-each-passenger ideal does not ap- peal to the true American temperament, in the opinion of our esteemed contemporary, the Sc. Louis Humorijst. 4 Your true American is a straphanger by prefer- ence; he is a constitutional straphanger, intj- timates the Humorist. “He would rather hang to a copper wire by his teeth than wait a minute for another car.” A seat for each passenger is all very wel: for Europe, where such regulations have been in force for many years, and people have grown used to them, but, “what the Ameri- can wants for his nickel is standing room, even, on somebody's corns, and the liberty to curse the street ca> company.” | To be able to contemplate the straphanger’s woes with this bland equanimity is proof of rea] humor, Doubtless the same authority would be moved to merriment by the wrigglings of an exe- cuted felon dangling on a hangman's rope. The humorist is several centuries out of date, how- ever. To have been really felicitous and at his

Please tell me who the lawyer is. I need a lawyer very bad, but I have no money. Yours in ete ga (Go to the office of Mr. John W. Calhoun, At- torney for the Legal Aid Society, Central Na- tional Bank Bldg., 795 Olive street.—Ed. P.-D.) Bridge Connections With the South Side. fe the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ffvery resident on the South Side agrees with the writer of a letter in a recent issue that no direct route exists connecting that portion of the city bounded by Lafayette, Meramec, Jefferson and Tower Grove avenues and the downtown d°2- trict. Lafayette avenue is the thoroughfare use’, but this comes to an abrupt stop at Thirteeth street. Then by a “hound and rabbit” game with the car tracks as the hound and your watch as the rabbit, the foot of the Twelfth street bridg> is fihally reached. But the gentleman in Mon. dey’s paper stops at the Twelfth street bridge— and he should. Any one of the thousands that cross this bride: dally feel as I do, and it is In their name, that ° ask to express my sentiments in your columns evpecially since a Twelfth street viaduct is being agitated. Place yourself at the wheel of a north-bound automobile on the rise of the bridge. “It very sel- dem happens at any time in the day when there is not a car behind you, but at that time of the auy, when 40 per cent of South St. Louis are using the lines which cross that bridge, the interven- ing space between cars Is about one-half a block. Thus, with four to six cars on the bridge, the srace between car tracks must be used by general traffic—and traffic it 1s; every conceivable form of commercial transportation ts using the bridge at this time, which: makes very slow automobile speed impossible. Add to this the presence of a few careless chauffeurs, the dreaded .ride over the bridge is made much more dangerous. Very often the distance between a passing car and a vehicle is reduced to a mathematical point and complete blockades are not unusual. Remember that you are still at the wheel. of the car, whose purchase was contemplated by you for years. Finally you land, a nervous. wreck, at the other side of the bridge. The people of South St. Louis have watched bridges like the King’s Highway and Compton avenue bridges built (the gentleman in Monday's paper proved that the Compton bridge was use- less to South Side residents), and they must be complimented on the spirit, with which they saw the people of the West End afforded every op- portunity for comfort and the minimum expendi- ture of time granted them, in the construction of finé direct boulevards connecting residence and business. ‘But has not the city overlooked the fact that no direqt route connects the South Side The gentleman’s solution is the agreed desire of all the South Side residents—Lafayette to Twelfth, a new Twelfth’ street boulevard cut through, leading directly to a bridge equal to the traffic which patronizes it. We, the men of South St. Louis, plead for a direct route to the, business district and a bridge that can be crosed bs rapidly as the Grand avenue bridge. Then no more nervous days will be the result of a thrilling escape on the Twelfth street bridge. We, the residents of South St. Louis, know how to appreciate a good thing—give it to us. THE SOUTH SIDE RESIDENTS. Poor Postoffice Facilities. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Does the Postmaster think this a fourth-class city? At the Eighth and Olive street postoffice there is only one window for receiving and weigh- ing parcels for the parcel post. During the dull- est hours there are always four or five people waiting. What must it be when busy? The busiest postoffice in a city of 700,000 people hav- ing only one window and one@clerk to wait on parcel pest patrons. Is this a joke? L. 8. : British Suffragette Violence. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Don’t you think your editorial headed “Crimi- nal Folly,” was a trifle loose in thought, or at least careless in statement, wherein you accused the English suffragettes of criminal methods in a country with “a Parliamentary Government eontrelled by the people?” Should you not have said, “controlled by the men?” You continue: “We cease to wonder why the British Parliament hesitates to give the women suffrage.” You evidently havn't read your American history lately, else you would not have begun to wonder. You evidently do not acknowl- edge that there is a revolution on in England, be- cause you reserve to men only the divine right of revolution. The women of England have patiently and per- sistently worked and petitioned for equal suf- frage for 50 years, to be persistently met with ridicule or indifference or trickery. Shall Amerli- cans deny English women the right they exer- cised of enforcing their demands after all gentle methods had failed? Fortunately American: women are achieving equal suffrage by peaceable agitation and peti- tion and by so much American men are superior to Englishmen. American men can show their superiority also by suspendfhg judgment while Finglish women are exercising the same right of revolution to which they resorted for much less provocation. AN AMERICAN. ee ee Wasting Theater Goers’ Time. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If the theater managers expect to begin their shows at the matinees at 2:30 why do they ad- vertise them at 2:15? Last Wednesday at the Olympic they started their matinee at 2:30 and Friday at the Columbia they started at 2:20 and in each case they advertised to begin at 2:15. This is a busy age and people can hardly afford to waste a quarter of an hour, besides it is not businesslike and gives visitors to our city a bad impression. The above iIngtances gre only two of many such that have occurred lately. A PATRON.

TOBACCO AT WINDSOR CASTLE. From the Pall Mall Gazette. The number of smoking rooms now distributed over the Windsor Castle would considerably as- tonish Queen Victoria could she but see them. Her late Majesty could never bring herself to do more than tolerate the weed in any form, and the smoking room was always relegated to a very dis- tant part of her various residences. Nor were the guests permitted to solace themselves with a quiet smoke in their own apartments, as on their ar- rival they were specially warned not to do do.

Pessimistic. From the Columbus Journal. Sometimes we become so discouraged about the general reform movement thdt we feel pretty sure the only real advantage accruing from the individual drinking cup system on our. great transportation lines is that we have to give the porter an exira dime for giving us one that we know hasn't been washed since the train left

Manley.’ Why had Howland opened the way for such a thing? Any man going on this hike stood less than an even chance of coming’ back. * e ' “She kissed his picture and cried a little.’’ | The words seemed to fire him with conscience could not quench: He ‘brdught his big fist down On the. written .phrase:. . “With all my life, Ruth.”’ Fate had given him this chance. It was his only chance, gnd with a hot, blinded sense of fury he determined ‘to use {t. White and calm as death, he rose and strode to the door. “Sergt. Manley!” he called in the al- rection of the adjoining hut, where the squad was quartered. “Yes, sir,” answered a tall standing at the door. Crane closed the door behind the other as he entered' and faced him. The older man’s eyes were set and stony, and he had cavered .the picture, the letter and the order. The other stood at careless attention. They had been boys together in Indiana. “George, an order has. been carried in by courier from San Mateo. Some hill men and the bad jot from town here are going to hold a meeting up in the old fort tonight. Howland orders is to split the force here and arrest the lot of them. You will take command’—— Crane stopped short, and the words died on his lips. Singing through the night came a call from over seas. It dinned in his ears and pierced his tor- tured heart. The phonograph was voic- ing the thing that had halted the soldier in .the midst of his terrible act. Clear and trenchant, it bore through the silence of the ‘night into Sergt. Robert Crane’s soul of souls the venerated hymn of American loyalty, devotion and God-fearing courage; the hymn that the children sang in the red brick school- house in the cornfields along the Wa- bash: “My country, ‘tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty.’ His country! The land where his fa- thers died! Crane’s lips moved wordlessly for-.a moment; then he slowly drew up to his fine height, and his chin went out. A smile trembled about his mouth as he Spoke on: “As I said, you are to take command of one of the details. You will] therefore remain in cOmmand of the village.”’ In an hour, the little band had stolen away behind the huts into the shadows. The lights were out in the president's house and all seemed at peace; ut Manley, as he sat before the door of the headquarters, his. rifle across nis knees and two ammunition belts beside him, could see that at each corner of the plaza, deep in the shadows of the flowering trees, were two silent figures —his own men, stationed at points commanding every approach. But the barrio was not asleep. Hari- ly a household was there from which someone was not in the hills that nigt+. To Manley's eager ears there came ihe low hum of wideawake life from behind the thin walls. Here and there a baby cried, and.its mother hushed it hastily. Now and then a door would creak, end a dark head appear, to be withdrawn quickly at the sight of the grim white men in the shadows. The fthoon was swinging into the Northwest when, far and faint report of a single shot came breaking tie calm of the night. Then there came a fast and furidus fusillade, which fj- ternately fell and’ rose in intensity, ow«- speaking a close, hard fight. Monley smiled, laid down his rifle and rclled a fresh cigarette. The sounds in the hills were dying away, and in 10 minutes all was still. When the first burst of the dawn wag turning the mists into masses of pink and rose-tinged gray that over the tree tops, a striking procession wound into ihe grassy square. Leading the column were 29 men of Tabarac, bound to a sinuous vine fresh- ly cut. Beside them walked the 10 sol- diers who had gone up in the hills. Two had white windings oh head and shoulder that showed fresh red stains. Then.came two bough litters, on one of which reclined Corporal Dwyer, wound- od, but still able to hold his rifle and help his comrades to mount guard over the half dozen crestfallen hills chiefs. On the last litter was a prone form of khaki, with a Sergeant’s chevrons on the sleeves and the hands tiled across the chest so that they should not dangle. Copyright, 1913, the Frank A.

Her voice is low and gentle. “Is it true, Miss Harraden,” I asked, “that you've come to tell us how well the new woman can get along without man? Somehow, I never gathered that theory from your books.” “But indeed I do not think women will draw apart from men, or that they should do so! I have never talked nor written any such unnatural segregation of human interests. One of the reasons why I am such a firm believer in the woman movement is that I am con- vinced its success will result in a closer and more loyal union ofthe sexes. The perfect friendship of equals is bound to be a finer relation than the one-sided pond between master and slave. LIKE men,” the novelist added, with ingenious candor. “I’ve al- ways liked them, and I fully appreciate their excellent qualities. I’ve had some splendid comradeships, and even if I am a militant suffragette, I’ve never ap- proved of wholesale condemnation of half the human race.”’ ee Incidentally, Miss Harraden looks the part of a “shrieking sister’’ about as much as—yes, just about as much as Mrs. Pankhurst, who is another slender, fragile, low-voiced woman. However, she is taller than Miss Harraden, whose hammer, I am positive, must be made to order. “The party to. which you have allied yourself is continually attacking men,” I reminded, her. “Oh, -but women must be free!’’ she cried, the slight, tense figure leaning far forward in its earnestness. “I believe so much in women. Don’t you? Aren't you a living example of what a woman can accomplish, even when conditions are not equal? And when they are, who can set limits on our achievement? “There are two big gains involved in the successful outcome of the woman movement. One will appear in many different forms, but its general descrip- tion is simply the improvement of so- cial conditions. When we have the power we shall not permit the labor of little children. We shall not allow our sisters to work overlong hours for a pittance. We shall find some way of rescuing those other sisters whose lot is even sadder, the women of the streets. Already we are learning not to draw our skirts aside from them, and they are becoming more willing to be helped by us since they do not scent the patron- age beneath the pity. E shall look after the helpless and oppressed, the children, the aged, the poor and the sick. We shall champion the causes which the men overlook. They have always punished the sinners. It will be our part to aid the suffering. ‘But there is another development of the woman movement, and it is vital. I refer to the education of the individual women. An original feminine Viewpoint exists at last, one not superimposed by man or male tradition. If the new woman had made no other contribution to the world, this would have justified her existence.’’ “And . what asked. “It is characterized by an immense loyalty based on immense pride. We are so proud of womanhood that we must be loyal to all other women. We have flung away surface distinctions of property or position or occupation. Rich or poor, married or unmarried, fishwives or actresses, we're all women. We've dropped the critical attitude.” “And you are sure that this sense of eolidarity is not accempanied by an- tugonism toward the opposite sex?’ Miss MHarraden’s wide, expressive mouth bent fn a smile triply compound- ed of tolerance, confidence and mirth. oo EN are our sons, our lovers, our husbands and our brothers,” she observed. ‘‘They are what we make of tnem; We have the first chance at them.

BEATRICE HARRADEN... one of our jobs to help them catch up.” ‘And you think they will suffer your help?” “Other things being equal, the than of tcday is attracted to the woman of strong will and intense vitality. Tamiar, one of the characters in ‘Out of the Wreck I rise,’ is such a woman. She’s been in my head for a dozen years, and when she went on paper there was no auestion but that the man in the book would turn to her. “Nobody can do away with human na- ture, and love and marriage are human dcmands. The new woman desires her romance, but she desires a new man for the hero.’’ Miss Harraden looks on her novel writing as work of art and so no propa- gandistic fiction need be expected from her. She plans to live as well as write, but she won’t combine the two too closely. And as she takes much in- terest in active living there is another reason her books come so far apart. “I don’t believe a writer should put 9ut too much,’’ she said. ‘‘Under the conditions I’m surprised not that so much poor work is done but that so little poor work is done. All is rush and hurry.” “Perhaps the writers want to make money.”’ ISS HARRADEN agreed with the suggestion.

to make too much money. I am not tempted by that in the least. To make enough to live comfortably, yes. But to make too much money doesn’t foster the best work, the best that’s in one.” ‘Don't you ever regret,’’ she was asked, ‘‘the loss of royalties that might have come to you from ‘Ships That Pass ‘- the Night?’ ”’ Miss Harraden thought seriously for @ moment. “No,”’ she answered. .“‘I don’t believe I do. Though I received about $30—for writing a preface—from the American sales of the book, and I’m told it sold nearly a million copies over here. But I received something much more val- uable than money—a hearing for my next work.” In connection with this mention of “Ships That Pass in the Night’’ it is interesting to recall its curious history. At the time of its publication, in 1893, Miss Harraden was entirely unknown and she parted with the copyright for a hundred dollars. Hundreds of editions were exhausted, both in England and this country—editions selling at from 5 cents to a dollar and a half. It was translated into French, German, Dutcii, Polish, Swedish, Norwegian, Hungarian, Russian, Japanese, Italian and Spanish, and issued in raised Braille letters for the blind. But the author has received, from translation rights and all, less

‘‘Yes,’’ she said. ‘‘But it is a mistake than $500.

A THRICE TOLD OF THE SEA THE “DEAR FRIEND” SAID: ‘LL, I tell you you have to be on shipboard with people really to know them.

Shocked? Why, I was simply astound- ed. Lucile Jerome and I went to Miss Blank’s school’ together for years. I always thought she was a nice girl. The first two days out she didn’t budge from her room, but on the other four days, my dear, she bloomed forth an inch deep in make-up and all swathed in violet chiffon veils and chinchilla. But it wasn't her mode of dress that amazed me—it was her actions. There was a Russian on board. Really SOME- BODY, you know. And if you could have seen the dead set she made for him! The Captain introduced him to me the first day out—I’m never seasick, you know—and he was absolutely taken with me. The first two days of the trip jhe used to spend hours with me, talking of things worth while, you know. He thought I had a wonderful brain. But from the moment SHE blew on deck the poor man didn’t have a ghost of a show to follow his own !nclinations. -|She simply shadowed him. Well, really, you know my reputation’s always been that I never speak {ll of anyone, but for once in my life I was ashamed of a friend! She used to try all the little comic opera stunts, you know. Such as strum- ming on a guitar in the moonlight and humming French songs. Her voice is punk. . But anything goes on the water, and then she’d go ‘way forward and pose at the rail, and then nearly faint with joy when he approached. THE MAN SAID: Y ES, a very amusing crossing. Amer- ican women are so-—so unusual. There was one, of course. Why not? When a charming and exquisitely gowned creature strews one’s path with rose leaves, why not tread it? I took the trip as a rejaxation. I found a delightful little bit of femininity to smile at my approach and sing to me in the moonlight, bathe me with ador- ing glances and furnish all the touching devotion herself. I will never see her again. She stghed so deeply On parting. So did I—antict- pating the ordeal of the American Cus- tom House. Yes, it was a fairly amus- ing crossing.

GOOD NEWS FROM PARIS. A news item from Paris informs us that the American method of producing a slim, trim figure is meeting with astonishing success. This system, which has made such a wonderful impression over there, must be the Marmola Pre- scription Tablet method of reducing fat. It is safe to say that we have nothing better for this purpose in this country. Anything that will reduce the excess Gesh a pound a cay without injury to the stomach, the causing of wrinkles, the help of exercising or dieting, or inter- ference with ones meals is a mighty important and useful addition to civil. gation’s necessitica. Just such a cata. logue of good results, however, follow the use of these pleasant, harmiess and economical little fat reducers. We eay economical because Marmola Prescription Tablets (made in ae with the fa- Ses = ; (Xantippe’s) capricious, passionate and ee ae violent disposition. He was not ignorant of her character. He says himself that he had expressly chosen her from the conviction that if he should be capable of bearing her in- suits, there would be nobody ever s0 difficult to endure with whom he could not live. If this was the view with which he married her~for self-discipline —it was certainly fully answered. I am taclined to belleve with Solomon. whose matrimonial experience was rath- er multitedimous: “It is better to dwell in the corner of a houstop than Im a wide house with a brawling woman.” Perhaps it would help some people to make the best of a bed matrimonial bargain if they looked at marriage from Socrates’ viewpoint; if they considered it a discipline of character, rather than as a short cut to the highest heaven of happiness. At a Scotch ministers’ festival meeting, “Our Wives.” was one of the toasts. One of the brethren, whose wife had a temper of her own, | on being sportively asked if he would drink it, exclaimed: “Aye, heartily! Mine brings me to my | knees in prayer a dizzen times a day, an’ nane o’ you can say the same of yours.” Perhaps never was a woman of so vio- lent and fanatical a spirit, and so bad a temper as Xantippe. Tradition tells us ee ing vented all the reproaches her fury could suggest, she emptied a bucket of water upon his head, at which the philosopher only laughed and said: “So much thunder must needs produce a shower.” Some writers claim that Socrates mar- ried a second woman, Myrto, grand- daughter of Aristides the Just, and that he suffered exceedingly from them both, as they were constantly quarreling with each other and never agreed but In load- ing him with reproaches and offering him the greatest insults. It is claimed that during the Pelopone- gan war, after the pestilence had swept off the greater part of Athens, a decree wvas made whereby, to retrieve the’soon- er the ruins of the republic, each citizen Was permitted two wives at the same } time and that Bocrates took advantage of the new law and again found that marriage was a discipline of character. For, while hfs wives made marriage . & school for scandal, the philosopher made it a school of dtacipline. Had not an old Roman moralist taught us that “to e- cape misfortune is to want instruction and to live at ease is ignorance?” Socrates lost many faults and greatly developed in character by passing through purgatorial existence. His e2- perience is no argument against matri- mony, except to those who deny that “42 is better to be seven times tn the furnace than to come out unpurified.””

BANKER IS BACK IN PRISON Spanish Cell Again Holds Rus- sian With Buried Pelf. He’s in again! That vnhappy Russian banker is once more languishing in a Spanish prison, with a beauteous daugh- ter powerless to help him, and with a treasure of roubles equivalent to £48,000 tucked away where he could get at it if cnly he had the help of some honest and

capable American with a little capital. The banker, S. Solovieff,-told all about it in a@ letter from Spain which Louis P. Sutter, member of a tobacco firm at 414 North Third street, received a few days ago. He offered Sutter one-third of the treasure, or $169,000, for his trouble, and gave explicit directions as to the cablel. iiessage which would start things mov- iig. But Sutter decided that he would not have time to attend to the matter.

He said it seemed to him that he bad heard about the case before, anyway.

A court attachment tieing up that portion of the receipts which might have gone to Eddie Hermann, had he Kept his engagement to box George Block last night at the Columbia Athletic Club resulted in the bout being declared off when Hermann declined to proceed any further. An announcement was then made from the ring of what had taken place and the members informed that the assessment which had been paid by them would carry admission to.the next boxing entertainment, which would be arranged for and carried out in the near future. Before this announcement was made, however, President Fred Ward and Matchmaker Pete Diehl endeavored to substitute someone in place of Her- mann and “Billy’’ Lutz, a boxer who hails from St. Joseph, Mo., was sug- gested. Lutz was willing to go on, but Block declined, ~saying that he had trained for Hermann and that he would want more time before consenting to meet anyone else. The large crowd which was present took the disappointment good-naturedly. Prior to the main event being called off two preliminaries were put on, swith Referee “Red” Held in charge.

Harvard Dean Claims Athletes Are Spoiled by Luxurious Living inisiiaelak Mass.. Feb. 27.—‘‘I am not sure that the enormous outlay of money on the athletic teams of the college has in- creased the chance of victory and I am sure that it has damaged some players,’’ declares Dean Lebaron R. Briggs, chairman of the Committee on the Regulation of Ath- letic Sports at Harvard College, in his an- nual report, which was made public today. Dean Briggs says further: ‘In certain things related to athletic games the col- lege should spare no expense, for. example, sh# Should studiously and at any cost reduce the danger to life and limb.”’ Discussing the ‘‘luxurious living of college athletes,’’ the report says: ‘‘A boy, poor when he comes,

and poor gle for a living if he has learned to regard costly food, automobiles on the slightest provocation, free entertainment ip hours of leisure, and refreshments as due from the world to him.’’ Much its being done at Harvard toward re- ducing the expense of maintaing the ath- letic teams, Dean Briggs says, and in clos- ing he adds: ‘Harvard has honestly clean game.”’ tried to play & —_--—_@——_— Zeigler Wins Weight Evcats.

He declared that the ma- jority of his clubs had their players nearly all signed up, the only exception being the Jersey City Club, which, owing to the delay in closing the deal with Thomas A. Fogarty, sent out its contracts only a few days ago. ‘‘There was no opposition on the part of any of our club owners to the adoption of the present salary limit,’’ he said. ‘‘They all realized that the salary lists of several clubs were entirely too high, Not only were the players getting all the money, but sev- eral of the teams had become so much stronger than the others that it was neces- sary to make some move to equalize. the playing strength of the teams. “That the adoption of a uniform salary limit will help to bring this about in a short time I haven't the least doubt, possibly not this year. but by next season the good ef- fects were sure to be seen and felt. ‘“‘The fans have no cause for worry, the quality of ball in the International League in 1918 will be just as high or higher than that of previous years.’’ St. Louis Tenpin Team Total Not Likely to Stand TOLEDO, O., Feb. 27.—While a 2758-pin total is regarded as a good performance on new alleys, many’ bowlers here for the American Bowling Congress fear that the Wooster Lambert team of St. Louis, which jumped into first place in the tourney last night, will not take away first prize. The tournament is still in its infancy and many believe that some of the teams stil] scheduled to roll, will beat the mark of the young millionaire’s quintet. Jake Pflueger and George Men- ninghause were the head liners for Lam- bert’s five. They stopped on 590. Lam- bert was only three pins behind that total, having two 200 games. Roberts was the weak sister, getting some bad breaks in the final frame. The St. Loulsans have proposed the names of Charles M. Barker and leo Ganahl as delegates, although it is likely that only one will be chosen. Ganahl’s name was not offered in opposition to Barker's, but be- cause the Mound City bowlers want two delegate. st. Louis men were scheduled t@ roj) in singles and doubles today.

World’s Best Performance Will Not Be Recognized as Record Because Made in League Not Sanctioned by the A. B. C. )

What probably is a new record for tenpins was bowled on the Olympic al- leys, where Phil Pitts, a member of the Missouri No.. 1 team of the Royal Ar- canum League, made 30 consecutive strikes. In three games Pitts amassed an almost unparalleled total of 857, In consignments of 278, 300 and 279. After getting a split on the first ball shot down the runways, Pitts hit his stride and made 11 strikes in his first game, then uncorked 12 successive strikes in his second game, negotiating a perfect count, and came back with seven strikes in his third and final game. This performance will not be recog- nized by the American Bowling Con- gress as a world’s record, because Pitts was not bowling in a sanctioned league. His great feat was made in a match game, and therefore will never be en- tered on the A. B. C. record books. However, the oldest pin-topplers can- not recall another such a sensational performance. Thirty strikes in a row undoubtedly is a world’s record, and it is to be regretted that Pitts did not make his brilliant score in a sanctioned league. It is pertinent to remark here, though, that sensational scores are the Successive Tenpin Strikes Scores 857; 900 Possible

A week previous to his record; breaking score Pitts, in a match game, made a spare and ‘11 successive strikes for a total of 28. Harry Dean made a perfect score of 300, while T. Kirchner, A. Cox and H. Plitt duplicated Dean’s stunt. In 1912 Charles Lang and Rich Palmer uncorked a perfect game, while John Green got rid of a 12-strike game in 1910. L. Young and Louis Ahlefeldt were. the top-liners in 1909.

St. Leo Players. Ready to Jump to Other Teams —————— | Leo football players are like fish out of water. They compose a per- fectly good team, but do not play. The result is that the men are getting nervous and want to do some kicking. So far as The St. Manager Bill Klosterman is concerned, the team is through for the season. Some of the players have associated themselves with the teams of the Pastime Park League, but the competition in this organization is not up to the St. Leo standard, and they crave more excite- ment. It is said that several members of the ten-time champions are ready to de- sert to the Athietic Park League, but each fears to act as ringleader. If one an- nounced that he had signed with the Innisfails, Columbus Club or Business Men, it is belleved that a half dozen would “jump.” Stars to Go East, It looks as if the Innisfails will com- pose the major portion of the all-star team that Invades the East for seven games. Some of the men are said to be balking, on the ground that the jaunt will not be a success financially. They are in favor of playing a _ three-game series with the St. Leos, as more money would result from such contests. President Murray of the Athletic Park League has suspended George Miller, halfback of the Columbus Club team, for taiking back to Referee Will Bascom last Sunday. He will remain on the sidelines for a week. Sunday's echedule at Athletic Park fol- lows: Innisfails vs. Compton Hillis, Co- lumbus Club ys. Business Men's’ Athletic Club. LL...

$ HUESTON MUST MAKE 371 TO DE ORO’S 200, TO WIN NEW YORK. Feb. 27.--Alfredo de Oro Zept Thomas Hueston far behind in the sec- ond session of their match for the world’s pool championship title last night at Doyle's Academy. The score for the night was 200 to 131. De Oro’s grand total stands at 400 to 229 for his challenger: There were brief and spasmodic periods of brilliancy on the part of Hueston, He threw away giittering opportunities by ecratching in what seemed to be an inexcusable man- ner. De Oro, in contrast, was the old master. He was in his best form. and rarely ty&s he played with greater certainty and skill. The game consumed 25 frames. De Oro made a high run of 85 and Hueston a run of 20 balls. The champion had four scratches and the challenger pina

| ——-_ Frankie Cornet Unable to Come for M. A. C. Meet Frankie Cornet. the St. Louls boy who has for several years been one of Cornell's main sprint reliances and who tied the %&-yard indoor dash record in a memorable meet here a few years ago, will not be here with the Cornell track squad which is to compete in the indoor athletic meeting of the Missourl A. C. in March. Cornet and Reller, another St. Louis star at Cornell, had been relied on to appear in the 50-yard dash. In a letter to a St. Louis friend Cornet, who is in his graduating year, states that he is behind in his studies and wili have to work hard for the rest of the year, as he does not wish to jeopardize his degree.

Jimmy Rector is working the Missour! A. C. squad nightly at the club’s gym. A new track has been built and it is well used each night. Rector expects to show a new half miler shortly. He <- a converted sprint- er, name not open for publication ag yet.

Jinx Evades Will Locke. Bill Locke, the new president of the PnhiI- adelphia Nationals, believes the Phils have lost the Jinx that has pursued them for two seasons. He makes this assertion following the escape of his ball yard from being de- stroyed by fire earlier tn the week. Had an east wind been blowing the Phils’ yard would very likely have gone un in a puff, as a fire destroyed a big granary across the street. The direction of the wind, however, saved the plant. KIRK SIGNS FOR NEW YORK SCRAP- WITH ABE ATTELL Local Boy Believes He'll Put Yiddisher Out for All Time, if He Wins Again.

Oliver Kirk, the St. Louls boxer, Wednesday signed articles to box At- tell, former featherweight champion, a 10-round bout in New York, March 19. Kirk has agreed to make 128 pounds, ringside, for the little Yiddisher. The bout will be staged by the Fortyfourth Street & & It was Kirk who forced Attell to an- nounce that he was through as a boxer when they met at the Jai Alai last No- vember. After six rounds of milling Abe declared that he had lost his old- route. He said he was through for time. But evidently those kidding New Yorkers told Attell differently. As early as Jan. 17 he hied himself to Muldoon's physical culture farm to pull a “‘come- back.”” He picked Kirk as the Individual whom he'd like to assassinate first. As the terms offered were agreeable, Kirk lost no time in signing. : “I’m going to work immediately for this bout,” said Kirk Thursday, “be- cause I know Attell will be fn shape. This will be his last chance. If he fails tuis time it means that they won't stand for him any longer. For that reasen I look for him to put up a good bout, if it is in him. I'm going to try to make the job more completé than I did at the Jal Alal when we met last.” —_—- —- Shelton Would Box Trendalfi. Jack Shelton is waiting to hear from Harry Trendall, Leo Kelly or any of the other topnotch lightweights or near-light- weights in this vicinity. Shelton has just returned from a successful Eastern invasion and believes he's good enough to take the taw of Trendall, Kelly et al.

Another Bout for Rowan. Marty Rowan, who defeated Art Magiri at the Future City A. C. Tuesday, will probably take the vanquished one’s place against Billy Lutz of St. Joseph at the Brewery Workers’ Club next Monday evening. Magirl has an ulcerated tooth and isn't eager to enter the ring with his mouth in bad shape.

Tommy Sullivan wants Benny McGovern and Danny Dunn for the Future City's March 11 show. McGovern expects to meet Willie Purcell in Cincinnatf!, {, March 24. As Ray Bronson, the Indianapolis boxer, will do no better than 145 pounds for Lee Kelly next Wednesday night. the local boy will be handicapped considerably in the poundage line. Bronson can no longer make the welter limit of 142 pounds, while Kelly has just graduated from the lightweight Givision.
