efficiency expert. He is trying to do the same St. aD Bipt work, in relation to the business of law enforce- “ te are ment, that the commercial or mechanical expert does by looking over bookkeepers’ shoulders, or | counting the number of motions that workmen make. The efficiency expert in a wholesale house or a factory has to convince the board of directors, before he can get things to running as he wants them. And Harvey, in his effort to put his work on a scientific efficiency basis, has had to esx the Mtssouri Legislature to do a number | of things. | ! He has been at Jefferson City several days late- ly, telling members of certain committees, how, in his opinion, justice in the criminal courts can’ be made less of a sporting proposition and more of a mathematical certainty. He has a set of definite measures which, he believes, will re- move a number of the artificial hazards that now obstruct the prosecutor, and which will extract the “gazipe” from some existing laws and modes of procedure. Some of the Reforms He Asks. | H ERE are some of the things he is asking the Legislature to do: To stop the exodus of State’s wit- nesses to East St. Louis, by making such aflight a felony, and extraditable. \ To punish bondsmen whose clients flee for the mere purpose of delaying their trials, and returning in time to save the bonds in the higher courts to which appeals have been made from forfeitures. To remove the present ban on the use of ’ §nterpreters in a grand jury room. { To put public prosecutors in charge of coroners’ inquests in possible murder cases, before the witnesses have been “seen” or have had time to forget most of what they know. | To give prosecutors power to swear per- / — ‘sen art that I was digging the grave of my own | a happiness.

thinks most urgently needed, and it was the first which *he mentioned in talking with the writer, after his return from Jefferson City, of his various proposals. “The fixer,” said Judge Harvey, “is a most mean and harmful criminal in two ways. He preys on those who are generally poor and ig- norant, and he creates a disbelief in and con- tempt for the courts. “The fixer works in about the same way in all cases. He visits the accused person, either in jail or, if he has given bond, at his home, and declares that he can ‘fix’ the case for so much. How much, depends on his estimate, generally made after an advance inquiry, of the amount the victim or his family can pay. , “The fixer demands, say, $200—often it is twice or three times that amount. The victim protests that it is too much. ‘Well,’ the fixer replies, ‘you don’t think I get {it all, do you? Go ahead and take a term in prison, if you want to,’ “In this way, the idea of corruption in the court fs instilled into the defendant's mind, and he becomes convinced that the fixer has financial relations with the Judge, prosecutor, perhaps both of them. “Prequently shis ballet ts fovigred, by the eun-t f : Pa - ie iin ~_ te ta

'_-- MISSOURI GAME LAWS. Of a multitude of changes in the game laws proposed at Jefferson City, two are vital as af- fecting the maintenance of the State Game and Fish Department. One directs that the fees road fund, instead of being reserved for the de- partment’s benefit. The other abolishes the fee licensing Missourians to hunt within their own counties. Approval of either change will cripple the de- partment. Approval of both will practically abolish it. The revenue will be paid cheerfully by 99 per cent of sportsmen as long as it is de voted to the benefit of the wild life of the State. No part of it will be paid with less protest than the modest $1 fee for county licenses. Various bills aiming at greater perfection in the Missouri code of game and fish laws are worthy of enactment. One of great excellence prohibits the shooting of wild fowl from motor boats, Missouri being now the only Mississippi Valley State that tolerates the practice. This bill should be passed, But many of the pending amendments, while desirable, are’mere matters of detail.

THE ‘‘SAFETY’’ AEROPLANE. The type of “safety” aeroplane which M. Moreau of Paris is said to have invented was bound to come. The precariousness of flight in previous types has not been favorable to that early demonstration of the practical possibili- ties of aerial craft expected at the time the Wrights made their discoveries. The world’s list of dead aeronauts is already an appalling one. How busy inventors in progressive countries have been on the perfection of the aeroplane is shown by Orville Wright's visit this week to the International Aero Show in London. He did not find there a single aeroplane of the original Wright type on exhibition and the Wright name displayed in but one place. Various im- provements contributing to facility, speed and re- liability in flight are all the time being made, ’ But “safety first,” even under the most adverse conditions, has been the greatest need. With that secured, the advance of the aeroplane from the stage of dangerous toy and thrilling exhibit to usefulness will be te | ve Leet, fate ~ LETTERS FROM THE PHOPLE “An Orphan”’—WIll the writer of letter with this signature kindly send real name and address to the editor of the Post-Dispatch, as we have received offers of aid.

It has not been proved that Thaw’s money is the Ley of the Asylum for the Criminal In- sane. It has cost the State heavily to heep Thaw in custody, but it has kept him: neither barratry nor bribery has set him free.

A DEFECT IN PARCEL POST. From the Springfield Republican. The manager of the parcel post de- partment of a number of insurance com- panies’ of New York reports that al- ready. losses by theft have been ex- tremely numerous, and complaints have come in from other quarters. The rea- son assigned is that packagés sent in this manner cannot be properly sealed, and must also be inspected by the post- office authorities to determine whether they properly belong to the parcel post rervice. Obviously this reproach must in some way be removed if the postal service is to compare favorably with tnat of the express companies for ar- ticles likely to tempt cupidity. What honest employes is yet to be Been, but invention of an inexpensive, convenient and effective system of sealing.

_ ‘WILSON KEEPS SECRET » CABINET CHOICES, BUT GOSSIPS ARE BUSY

Comment on the men whom rumor assigns to places in the new Pres- ident’s council limited by lack of definite information from : the only authentic source.

RYAN for Secretary of State seems, at this writing, the only certainty in President Wilson’s cabinet. That William G. McAdoo will be Secretary of the Treasury, Josephus G. Daniels Secretary of the Navy and Albert Burleson Postmaster Gen eral seems very probable. Never before has an incoming President so perfectly guarded the secret of his choice for members of his cabinet and it ts likely that the persons will not all be known before Wednesday. President Must Please Himself. New York World: In the past Cabinet com- prontises have seldom been successful, and the President is the man.upon whom the blame al- Ways falls. If Gov. Wilson finds nine Democrats who meet his requirements of public service to administer the several departments of govern- ment, the country is very likely to be satisfied. Nc matter what his selections may be, the pro- fessional politicians will not be satisfied. Prob- ably the best way Gov. Wilson can please the country is first to please himself. The Snap. Pittsburg Gazette-Times: wants a Cabinet with “snap” in it. that, all right, when he gets W. J. B. Mr. Bryan as Secretary of State. Baltimore News: Mr. Bryan will begin his career as Secretary of State—conceding’ the truth of the now practically unanimous assump- tion that he will be appointed to that eminent post under the new administration—with a task on his hands such as has fallen to few Secre- taries at the outset. It is the irony of fate that one who has won distinction as an opponent of war should come into power at a time when the threat, at least, of the mailed fist seems necessary ‘to prevent its more active use. Bryan Would Be Hamstrung. Philadelphia Ledger: Measured by the fate of others, William J. Bryan would be a less potent political force in Woodrow Wilson's Cabinet than he is outside of it. Henry Clay lost the Presi- dency when he took his seat as Secretary of State beside Adams. Webster was, all things considered, the most powerful Secretary America has ever had, but the office was a hindrance rather than a help to him in his presidential aspirations. Great as was Seward, he put the Gov. Wilson says he He'll have “SWhite House forever beyond his reach when he ecepted Lincoln’s. invitation to sit at his right and in the Cabinet. The disruption of the Re- publican party in the few months of Garfield’s ~term was largely due to Conkling’s hatred of Secretary of State Blaine. This eminent states- man, beyond question, again lost prestige during the time he held the same office under Harrison. The Bryan Mystery. goston Herald: Twenty years.ago the Demo- cratic party was nearly convulsed with disgust over the selection for the office of Secretary of . State of a man who had been a Democrat—if one at all—for only a few months. That was Walter Q@. Gresham. Today the same party is suffering still more serious convulsions over the prospect of a man in that office who has been a Demo- erat too long. Verily, the party is ‘hard to sufit. “Bryan for Secretary of State” has been the And yet present reports throw much doubt on its ma- terializing, so great has been the commotion oc- ecasioned. New York’s Hungry Horde. New York Sun: (Washington Telegram) For ‘the New York representative in the Cabinet it was said that about 250 men have made strong ‘and persistent claims for recognition. (Editorial) So few? Were betting not obso- lete and a prohibited ill we wotld have wagered ten cents to a Congressional Record, say 1,000,- C¢0,000,000,000 to 1, that not less than 250,000 New Yorkers had filed their “claims” to sit in that august council of clerks. Guessing the Cabinet. Boston Glebe: Those who have entered them- selves in the game of guessing the Cabinet. are meeting with indifferent success. Meanwhile the maker of the Cabinet, the man who holds the mysterious list of names, offers nothing but cryp- tic utterances. “The lists make me smile,” he says, which may be an intimation that the Amer- ican, people are better on the problem of squar- ing the circle than they are in picking Cabinet slates. | About Brandeis. New York Globe: When Louls D. Brandeis was firat talked of for the Cabinet there Was a howl from people in Boston and in Washington. There was no difficulty in guessing what kind of peo- ple the howl came from. Certainly it could not come from the radical reformers, for with them, whatever part of the country they live in, and whatever political party they belong to, Mr. Brandeis is extremely strong, It is in the other camp that he is unpopular. In a}) Massachusetts there is probably no man whom the pillars of society dislike more. The main reasons for their dislike are two. He has Successfully interfered with the methods of granting franchises which used to prevail at the State House in Boston. He has fought a long fight against the merger of the Boston & Maine with the New York, New Haven & Hartford. Mr. Wilson’s ‘‘Control.’’ Cotumbus Ohio State Journal: There is much in the personality of Woodrow Wilson to inspire confidence. He is a scholar, a thinker, a patriot, a man of courage, and is disposed to stand for the right as he sees it. The worst part of any gcovernment is where it subjects itself to the con- trol of politicians; which does things for party’s sake; which yields itself to selfish interests. Mr Alison seems to be under the control of a ait. ferent Influence. He is for the country.

tion, having a border on Mexico that suffers from the turmoil in thet distracted state. Generally editorial opinion in the country at large is sttll strongly ‘against intervention. Are We Prepared? x Detroit Free Press: President Taft announces that he is bringing about the concentration of 10,000 American troops at Galveston. It is prob- ably true that 10,000 soldiers are all that Mr. Taft can possibly get together at one point be- tween now and March 4. A warning of the con- dition of affairs was furnished the country two years ago, when an effort was made to mobilize 20,000 troops at San Antonio. In three weeks the War Department succeeded in gathering together { 16,000 men. Then it gave up.. Yet, with a knowl- edge of this fiasco before them, and with repeat- ed warnings of the growing anarchy in Mexico, the national legislators failed to take adequate action. We are as unprepared for war as ever we were. A Prospect of Annexation. Washington Post: Where will the two great s2mi-American states of Chihuahua and Sonora turn for relief from conditions worse confounded? Already prostrate politically and commercially and virtually the prey of the first bandit chief who may make a foray and proclaim himself monarch of all he surveys, is it a far cry to say that the $4wo Northern states or republics named will sooner or later invite or seek annexation to the United States? If, for the reason named or any other, Chihuahua’ and Sonora had declared their independence and freedom of. action, and this Government were agreeable to annexation, would we be deterred from admitting them into the Union by any protest from those squabbling for power at Mexico City? The Great Problem. Cleveland Leader: Was there ever a new ad- ministration, in time of peace and with no such storm in the sky as the secession movement in 1861, that faced such tasks at the very beginning of a term? Gov. Wilson has a Mexican situation to deal with which is full of the gravest possi- bilities. It may plunge the country into a long, costly and bloody war in a short time. The Cost of Revolution. Pittsburg Gazette-Times: Germany, it was stat- ed on Friday in the Imperial Parliament by Gottlieb von Jagow, Minister of Foreign Affairs, will take steps to secure full compensation from Mexico for losses of German subjects in that

country because of the revolution. The United | States, Great Britain and other countries will } make similar demands. The bill of damages for } all the destruction will be a large one, for foreign } investments in Mexico have been many and de- | struction has been great. As for Mexicans, they also have suffered large property lossés and for them there will be no compensation from their Government when established. Leaving Wilson a Free Hand.

) Denver Times: The President's stand in this Mexican imbroglio is becoming to him and his office. He is setting the stage for his successor; pes preparations are being made for any emer- gency that may arise over the border. He has } done nothing spectacular or with a desire to court popular applause in the closing hours of his ad- ministration. Excuse in plenty had been offered him te intervene and to undertake @ policy which } would have to be followed by his successor. In- ) stead, he is leaving Mr. Wilson a free hand, } while, at the same time, he has done everything possible to aid’the policy that may be pursued by

warfare, prolonged for years, with rebellious fac- tions ard scattered banditti \s yet, surely, we have no excuse for such integ@@jtion. The time has not yet come when proof beyond doubt ts of- fered that Mexico can not govern itself. Unless it does and a state of lawlessness and anarchy comes about that calls for intervention in the name of humanity, the only proper course for our government is to maintain {ts -present atti- tude of watchfulness, but to keep out of its neighbor's family quarrel. ; Cleveland Leader: Take the Mexican situation for example. If President Taft or his successor were not anxious to maintain peace but,-on the other hand, were bent upon war, it would be easy for cither of them to accomplish his pur- rose. Nothing nrore would be necessary than an order or two to commanders of American troops on the border to use force vigorously and relent- lessly in punishing any breach of international law by Mexican soldiers, or bands of whatever nature, and then a harshly worded and inten- tionally offensive open dispatch to the American Ambassador instructing him to warn the Mexi- can Government that further savagery would be summarily punished if any American were hart or any American rights disregarded. If that course were taken out almost instantly and Congress would bé swept into formal recognition of the fact of war. ee so} «g

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World, Copyright, 1913, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) VIENNA, March 1.—It was Ambassador Kerens’ wife, it now appears, who solved the problem of the Washington birthday reception. When Col. Kerens came here, he leased the splendid Rothschild palace, but, when one of the bachelor Rothschild brothers who owned it, de- cided to marry, he wanted the house to live in, So Col. Kerens had to move and he took apartments in the Hotel Bristol. The suite was not adequate to the demands of an Ambassador's reception and after studying the subject Mrs. Kerens hit upon the plan of renting for the occasion the sumptuous reception rooms in the Palace of Industry on Schwartzenbergplats and there the reception was held with great suc- cess. Out of the 400 guests a large proportion were American doctors who are spending the winter in Vienna, attending the lectures of famous special- ists Many brought their wives and some even their @aughters All the States in the Union were rep- resented Of course the American colony was present Military bands played alternately in the re-

CALLING A INEGRESS PIG STARTS BIG POLITICAL ROW

Neighbors Think Gay Young Man Has Named Birthday Present Porker for the President. onelin PARIS, March 1.—A little pig, a big daily paper, a prefect and the President of France are in- volved in an odd incident, with the inability of a negress to speak French distinctly as the cause of it all. . M. Monis, son of the ex-President of the Coun- cil, is Subprefect of Meau, and his intimate friends were recently entertained by him at a dinner in honor of his birthday. Some humorist among the guests brought a little white pig as birthday present and had it delivered in a wicker basket about the time the wine was flowing freely. The pig was dtily presented to the host and ehristened with champagne, the negress cook em- ployed by the host, standing sponsor for the pig and selecting Aymon as its name. After the christening the negress carried the little pig out and made a miniature pen: for it near the door of her kitchen. Pigsy had the wanderlust and was continually getting out and running away. A few days after the birthday party, Aymon escaped and the ne- gress rushed around the place shouting “Aymon” at the top of her voice and finally recovered her et. . Neighbors, some of whom had heard the chris- tening, at once spread the news that the Sub prefect had called his pig “Raymond,” the first neme of Polncaire, who has since.been inaugu- rated President of France and was then Presi- dent-elect. To call a person a pig is a deadly insult in France and those who heard the story marveled that young Monis should show this desrespect. Then a Parisian paper published a front page story of how young Monis had offered an insult to President Poincare and things began to hap- pen. The young man sent his distinguished fath- er to call on the President and explain that piggy’s name was “Aymon,” not “Raymond,” and an insult to the snag had never been con- templated. As additional proof the young man sent word to President Poincare that the pig could not be

named for him anyway, not being that kind of a |. | Sin but a as King Manuel Inspects Lodging House.

The furnishers agree that, for both mén’s and women’s wear,’the gloves must be turned back at the very apex of the knuckle. They must set extend even a fraction of an inch too fan The best thing about this fashion, in the eyes of the "would-bes,” is that it gives longer servige to a soiled pair of gloves, j

Every woman | should study the question of how to buy corsets, because if the corset is right, most of the problem of making an attractive appearance is solved.

KABO “THE LIVE MODEL CORSET’”’ is beyond all question the corset that does most to satisfy the women who know how to dress. You can get a perfect fit in a Kabo no matter what the style of your figure; there is a special model made for every conceivable variation of stoutness or thiness, tallness or shortness, and every one of these models is designed und fitted over the figure of‘a living model. This feature has given the Kabo ‘The Live Model Corset’ advantages that have made it famous. - First in showing the correct styles, best in fit and comfort, and last to lose its shape, the Kabo is the best for you. Ask your dealer for a copy of the new 1913 Kabo Fashion Book. It’s good authority on styles in gowns and hats‘as well as in corsets. Kabo Corset tre a —_ % (aust acel dee a oe ees

Racquet Club Planning to Become the Most Original ¢ a . + yr fd y in the United States, With ‘‘Ladies’ Quarters’’ and,

Afternoon Teas and Entertainments of Various Sorts—Original Vaudeville and Other Clever Things Are in Prospect.

—_—_—_——— By Frances Cabanne Scovel. UCH wonderful plans are afoot to make the Racquet Club quite the most original club in the—yes, the United States. Sounds sweeping, doesn’t it? First of all, the talk, or rather whispers about adding “ladies’ quar- sl : » ters,” will at last come true. There will be the usual tea rooms and things that such quarters ordinarily have, and the attractive club house om King’s highway will become a rendezvous for all the matrons and maids whose husbands or fathers belong to the club, for luncheon and afternoon tea. ve To make the club the most interesting in the country the new com- mittee plans to make the library a place where magazines and papers from all over the world may be found by persons desiring them. The entertainments are to be out of ihe ordinary, with private views, the original vaudeville, even if they éve to import it themselves—and all gorts of clever things worth while; noth- ing hysterically artistic or “highbrow’’— just clever. ast night they had their first enter- tainment under the new regime. It was a Dutch supper, all arranged by Joe Miller, who is chairman of the House Committee, and is highly enthusiastic. “They had the German band over from Granite City. At the tables arranged foF supper were four or six men—mem- bers of the club.® They all wore caps iach as German officers and students \ There were singing contests be- ' the tables, German songs being ‘endered. It was one of the most orig- inal parties the Racquet Club ever had, and everybody had a fine time. -Qne of the debutantes of next season will be Miss Jane McNair, who has been in school at Lausanne, Switzerland, for two years. Each summer her father, idiburn G. McNair, and his second @aughter, Miss Cornelia, have gone over to see her. Both girls are remarkably attractive and, like many sisters, wholly unlike. Miss Jane, whom her father calls “Billy Boy,” has that charming something called poise. She speaks French and German and goes in for literature and that sort of thing, without. being the least bit a “highbrow.”’ She rides, plays tennis and golf and bids fair to be a belle next year. And of course, she is a possible Queen of the V. P. pall, although with Mr. and Mrs. Sam Capen’s daughter, Adaline, and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wiggins’ daughter, Ellan- pr Seott, and, perhaps, Sarah Talbot Kavanaugh, ali coming out, it is hard to phophesy. Little Miss Cornelia McNair is at school at the Georgetown Convent.\She was so distinctly a belle during the“hol- idays when the college set held sway, that she will be a great favorite wheth- er she makes her debut in the autgmn with her sister or waits until the*fol- lowing season. And the nickname of “Monkey” has been applied to her. They are great granddaughters of Al- exander McNair, first Governor of Mis- gouri, and related to many of the old pioneer St. Louis families. ie “The. Chart Club is preparing a tes- timonial for Mrs, Maria I. Johnston, Who for 9? years was its leader. The club, which stood alone in its inteht, was one of the most delightful in St. 3 The meetings were called “G@rawing-rooms” and were held af the homes of the different members, who are women of social prominence. Current topics, questions of the day, history and literature were dis- cussed, with Mrs. Johnston leading, and although she is almost three gcore and ten, she is a woman of re- markable mentality. Mrs. Johnston made her home with her daughter, Mrs. James Scullin of 6848 Clemens avenue, but has gone to Alexandria, La., to live. ‘Mr. and Mrs. Dwight B. Blossom of Von Versen avenue gave a small dinner Friday evening. The guests were: Misses Irene Clifford, Virginia Long- streth, Cordelia Wood; Messrs. Jewitt Jones, Cham Ely and Oliver Clifford. . ——— _D. M. Strauss, 382 Olive street, mil- liner to Her Majesty, the American lady, announces the opening of his new ghiop, Monday, March &.

daughter, Miss Gertrude McLeod, of 5267 Washington avenue, are there for the season. Mr. McLeod has gone ifi exten- sively for golf. He plays at the Country Club daily in company with Gen. Luke E. Wright of Memphis, who was Gov- ernor-General of the Philippines and served as Secretary of War in Roose- velt’s Cabinet. Dancing is a subject that has been almost done to death this winter, but here is a little story that simply must be told. Like many of the fashionable set, Mr. and Mrs. —. Well! three Misters and Mrses. went to a well-known, very properly run dance hall, where but even a short Boston is allowed, to watch the dancers. The music was so dreamy and the floor looked so fine that they couldn't stand by and see others dance when the dancing craze had them in its clutches, so when a particularly lively waltz struck up they all went on the floor and began a hesitation waltz— began it. They hadn’t done many turns when the bouncer tapped one of the men on the shoulder and said: “Cut it out or beat it, kid; cut it or beat it!’’ And our six swells “beat it.” It doesn’t do to tell names and tales, too, but you can guess. One has a very Scotch name and his wife is quite ethereal looking: another’s name stands for something conse- crated and his wife is slim and dark, with the plural for wilt and his wife's name is the diminutive for a sover- eign. Now do you know? Another story is told on Misses Myrtle Scharff and Leo Fuller, who are among the best dancers in the Columbiah Club set, where there are some unusually good dancers. They were going to take part in some affair, there is always something going on at that club, you know, and were rehearsing in a recital hall downtown. A number of girls, employes of the place, gathered at the door and watched. When it was over, one onlooker asked: ““Who are they?” Another replied: ‘Oh, some of them society raggers.”’ My fancy suits have made the biggest hit. -Each garment has its own indi- vidual style. M.

Just after Easter, which comes this year so much earlier than ugual, there promises to be a revival of the gayeties that made the season just past one of the most brilliant in years. There will be a number of weddings and Easter week will start with at least one ball which promises to be one of the most important of the past season. The St. Louis Chap- ter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy have announced the ball for March 26 at the Woman’s Club.

Then, too, there are many opportunities for difference, of opinion as to whether some offenses are crimes | or misdemeanors, and the Prosecuting | B Attorney, standing on the letter of the |®@ law, may force the Circuit Attorney to prosecute someone for a felony when the evidence is such that the person cannot be convicted of a felony, might be convicted of a misdemeanor. ‘The whole system of double juris- diction justice and expense to the people. work of the Prosecyting Attorney could be administered by the Circuit Attor- | ney’s office at one-third its present | cost.” | Judge Harvey then talked of some | of his other legislative measures, al- | ready outlined. The interpreter bill, | he said, was made necessary by court decisions which have said that no) person but the prosecuting attorney and the witness can enter a grand jury room. get. the. testimony out of a witness) who: cannot speak English. | The proposal to have oaths admin- istered to witnesses by prosecutors is designed complaining witness who tells a har~ rowing tale, unsworn, to the prose+ cutor, and later, aS a sworn witness, fails to repeat the, story. designed to make informations, sued by the Circuit Attorney, carry more weight than they seem to carry at present, i The one concerning Coroners’ in- quests is an attempt, Harvey says, to give the State the same chance, at the outset of a murder case, that the defense are questioned by the Coroner, who may or may not know what sort of questions will show prosecutor needs to know. Harvey proposes to make duty to notify the prosecutor, and to) put the prosecutor in charge of the} questioning, part in it as he wishes to take. The bills relating to the flight of wit- nesses and defendants, Harvey believes, will close up two big loopholes through which guilty persons now slip. At pres- ent, when an fiimoertant witness goes to East St. Louis, or goes from Kansas City to Leavenworth, the State can do nothing about it. Depositions cannot. be used. the wiiness the Cae fails. collect a bond frowr him would not satisfy the ends of justice. proposed law, makirg it a felony for a witness to go outside the court’s juris- diction without permission, would make a big difference in this respect, he be- lieves. Then, too, under the present system, men can jump their bonds, obtaining a. long delay in their trials, and the bonds are still not forfeited until the Supreme Court has approved the forfeiture. Be- fore that slowly moving court gets to the matter the bond jumper can return and free his bondsman from obligation, though the cage virtually has died. Harvey said several times, when run- ning for office last fall, that he was “not a reformer.” consider his new measures as reform propositions. |ness-like plans for transacting public business.

RUevssTism : Inspectors to Work Shortly After April 1. MANY COMPLAINTS MADE City to Be Divided Into Districts and Each Man Required to Repert Daily. Building Commissioner James N. Mc- Kelvey yesterday told a Post-Dispatch reporter that early in April he would assign 20 building inspectors to an in- vestigation of all factories and business houses in St. Louis with a view to re- quiring a strict compliance with all building laws relating to fire prevention and protection of life. McKelvey now has only 14 inspectors available for systematic inspections of buildings, but after April 1, when the fiscal year ends, he will have six men added to his force. “This office has received many com- plaints that St. Louis factories are not complying with the building eng Mc- Kelvey said. ‘Very few of ‘the com- plaints relate to the larger factories, nearly all of them dealing with small factories, generally called ‘sweat-shops,’ where only one or two floors in some old building are occupied. “The law specifically prohibits the placing of machinery at Windows lead- ing to fire escapes, prohibits employers from permitting rubbish to collect and provides for protection of boiler rooms. We are informed through complaints that many factories which employ a large number of men and women are not obeying the law. Complaints which have reached this office are that rub- bish accumulates and that little atten- tion is paid to the prohibition against the obstruction of windows leading to fire escapes. '. “At present I am hampered by a lack of inspectors, but immedi&tely after the end of the fiscal year there will be available sufficient funds to put a force of 20 inspectors to work. I shall divide the city into districts, holding one in- spector responsible for a careful in- spection of each building in his district. I shall receive daily reports from them and will know each day whether the inspectors are doing their work prop- erly. “T hope in this manner to compel every employer of labor in factories and busi- ness houses to comply with the law and’ reduce to a minimum tthe probability of fire and the loss of life if there is a fire. . “Through inspections conducted by this department we have required every ho- tel in St. Louis to comply with all the provisions of the law, and I believe that all hotels now are in as safe condition as it is possible to make them. We have had trouble with some hotels, and in a few instances it became necessary for us to summon the proprietors to court. There are very few, if any, ho- tels which could be found violating the law now. “T expect to bring factories and busi- ness houses to the same standard. “The recent hotel fire in Omaha em- | phasizes the fact that we cannot be too, careful in our enforcement of the law, and that all buildings where many per- sons congregate should have all the pro- tection which the law affords.’’ WELSH TROOPS HOAXED LIKE GERMAN GARRISON Joker Sends Out Mobilization Order and Work Begins Before Trick Is Disclosed. CARDIFF, Wales, March 1.—The Welsh military authorities were the vic- tims.today of a hoax similar to that which recently caused the entire Ger-

4-man garrison of Strassburg to assem- ble for inspection by Emperor William, whose approach was announced by a practical joker. Military and police officials received apparently authoritative instructions to begin the mobilization of the territoria] troops on a war footing. Walls and bill- boards were promptly placarded with the mobilization order, and _ telegrams were sent to all territorial soldiers re- siding in outlying districts. The arrangements for billeting the men on the inhabitants of the town were well under way before the hoax was discovered. COLOMBIA’S ACT CLOSES DOOR TO U. S. OVERTURES WASHINGTON, March 1.—In a spe- clal message reviewing the contro- versy with Columbia over the separa- tion of piesa President Taft to- day transmitted to the Senate a re- port by Secretary Knox which de- clared that Columbia’s flat rejection of preliminary settlement proposals by the United States have closed the door to any further overtures on the part of the United States. , W. R. NELSON CASE DELAY JEFFERSON CITY, March 1.—The Missouri Supreme Court today accepted the resignation of Judge Henry C. Tim- monds of Kansas City, as special eom- missioner to take testimony in the next contempt case against William, R. Nel- son, owner and editor of the Kansas City Star.. : The court appointed Charles C. Crow of St. Joseph commissioner, and extend- ed the time to take testimony until March 26.

Acting: ovér the President’s veto, it has made the Webb bill a law, wil} -9 kixown very soon now~ whether ' dry. The Webb bill forbids the shipment of ie 8 : hy ‘liquor. into dry territory. ‘and Maine, whi States like Kansas have been playing with pro- hibition for years, have been given an oppor- tunity to decidg@ whether they mean it or not. Probably they aon’t. It is one thing to have _ other people dry, and quite another thing to be why a dry yourself. Perhaps Kansas, really, is about bas Ris Fae ae the last State which wants to be dry. That ‘will develop in time. It is going to be very ; . ‘amusing to watch ‘it develop. Probably some f the biggest laug’ 3 in the history of the world ‘will result.

The attitude of Congress is very trying to people who have looked at it this way. Congress, which as- sumes the wisdom of a physician, says it is bad for everybody. Mr. Taft, who does not share that view, vetoed the bill. Mr. Wickersham, wha is disposed to think that lijuor is not necessar- ily bad for everybody, says the Webb measure is probably unconstitutional. It remains for the United States Supréme Court to say if it really ie bad for overytody or not. The s:tuation is about as acute as it could be, especialiy for peo- ple who are disposed to think that it is not ‘bad for them. ‘ NE thing is certain, and this is that if the Webb law is constitutional, the temper- ance issue will come to a head one way or another in very short order. Everybody will quit fooling with it. We shall have to.make up our minds whether we want to be wet or dry, and we have never had to do that. It will be 4nteresting to see what we really do think about it.. Possibly we may decide that, after all, what we shall have to do is to be segregated. It goes without saying that there will be é considerable exodus out of dry states upon the part of people who like to begin the day with an eye-opener and close it with a night-cap. Slight at first, this might easily become one of the most historic movements in which: any people have ever en- gaged. It may even result in all the wets liv- ing on one side of the Mississippi River, and all the drys on the other. A great many far-sighted people have pointed out that thie will have to be done if this thing keeps up. The only point at issue is which side of the river would probably be dry. jome people think it ought to be the west side. They roint out that the west side is naturally dry, anyway; that all the deserts and the unwatered plains are out there. Other peo- ple, probably more humane, think the west side ought to be wet. They set forth that one could probably live on the east side without liquor, whereas it would be almost impossible to do so on the.west side. The air is too dry. ‘There is too much dust and sand. Liquor, they say, has never been used in the Hast as it is used in the West. The Hast drinks liquor socially; the West drinks it to keep from choking to death. There are some Western staves like New Mexico, in which all whisky is drupa straight.“ They never make it into highballs, or take it with soda. Almost all whisky is drunk with something on the side in the East. It is not particularly prized, as it is in the West. HAD an experiepce in the Southwest some |. years ago which indicates ‘the respect in which whisky is held in some parts of the West. I went out on the Santa Fe to Glorietta, N. M., and took a wagon to a fishing resort up on the headwaters of the Pecos River. It was a long haul, and we were most of the day atit. I complained of the distance a number of times. Finally the driver announced that when we turned a bend looming ahead of us we would look down on the resort. As we turned the cor- ner, we came in sight of a cluster of unpainted buildings across the river. In front of one of these buildings, on a long bench, were about a dozen men. Immediately the wagon came in sight these men jumped to their feet and began cheer- ing. Some of them sailed their hats here and there. They were all jubilant. As we rattled across the bridge and drew up before the place, their enthusiasm increased. I got out and made a very low bow. : “Gentlemen, I oy flattered,” I said. “I have %

Now € omes the never gotten such a reception anywhere else.” They laughed. “That wasn’t for you,” one of them said. wagon brought up 10 gallons of whisky.” It has been freely predicted that if the Webb bill became a law it would not leave a single prohibition state in the Union. Prohibition has been something of a joke in those states which have seemed to be dry.. The Webb law will make it a grim fact. My new Dixie, which follows, will reflect a real condition: . “The THE NEW DIXIE.

168 MILES §pruce streets. _f, LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. __

VES ‘CREAN © LIGHT BUSINESS TO UNION ELECTRIC -' Monopoly Now Almost Com- plete Would Be Perpetuated by Ordinance. OF CONDUITS Nearest Competitor Has Less Than 18 Miles and Supplies Small District.

An examination yesterday of the rec- | Ords in the City Lighting Department revealed the fact that because of the extensive underground wiring system of the Union Electric Light and Power “0,, in the downtown district of St. Louis, that company will have a mo- Popoly of electric business in the densely populated part of the city if the con- duit bill now pending in the City Coun- cil becomes a law. The Union Electric has 573,09 feet, or more than 108 miles of conduits in the district bounded by the Mississippi Riv- er, Twenty-second street, Wash and The Laclede Gas Light Co. has 93,700 feet, or less than 18 miles. " The Cupples Light and Power Co. has bee _ 4220 feet, or less than one mile, and the _ National Subway Co. has 9407 feet, or less than two miles. The National Subway, under an ordi- nance, is permitted to furnish conduit space to other companies, but the other companies having franchises are pro- hibited from leasing space in their con- duits. Would Prohibit Extensions. _A map of the ‘underground district’”’ shows that the Union Electric is now able to furnish light and power to all users of electricity in every block in the district, cud that the other compa- ties ure able to furnish electricity only to very limited sections. ‘The conduit bill now pending, which Was introduced by Councilman Lehm- berg, prohibits the Board of Public Im- provements from granting permits for the extension of conduits over any street or public place already occupied by conduits. Holds “Cream of Business.” Attorneys say this means that neither the Cupples, Laclede nor National Sub- Way companies could extend its service over any street now occupied by con- duits of the Union Electric. The map shows that the Union Electric has con- duits on nearly all the streets of the underground district, as established by ordinance. This district includes. the wholesale, retail and office building dis- tricts; and is said by the manufacturers of electricity to compose the “cream of the business.” ; axime Reber, president of the Board’ of Public Improvements, yesterday re- fused to discuss the pending bill. . “The Board of Public Improvements recently introduced a bill which would permit the extension of the conduits of _ all companies now in business,”’ he said. & - Returns $4268 ““We believed this to be necessary to afford adequate electric facilities. “When the Keyes ordinance, under Which the underground business is now handled, was passed an attempt was made to anticipate the electric needs of the busiest section of the city. That was in 1896. It has been proven that a mistake was made. Then there was not one-twentieth, of the business there is today. Can't Estimate Growth, “We are no more able today to esti- mate the growth of electricity than was possible when the Keyes ordinance was passed. In framing its bill, the Board of Public Improvements sought to give all companies the right to such exten- sions as business demanded. _ “A substitute bill was introduced and fs now pending. I have not given it a sufficient consideration to discuss it.” To other persons Reber has said that if the pending ordinance becomes a Jaw he would not be able to issue per- mits to any company for extensions. -The monopoly, as pointed out by at- torneys, lies in the fact that the Union Blectric already occupies the district. It does not need extensions, and the ordi- mance would prohibit other companies eas encroaching on its*territory. Favors the Monopoly. Dr. Paul R. Fletcher, a member of the Public Impnovements Committee of the Council, which will hold a public hearing on the bill at 3 p. m. Monday, yesterday declared that he Was in favor of its passage. “I do not believe that a company which has expended a large amount of money all over the city to provide an adequate electric service should have to compete with a company which seeks only to supply the ‘cream of the service’ in a district where ey- ery building is a large user of elec. tricity,” he said, _ “There are several small companies which have shown no disposition to supply all users of electricity in the city, and they seem to want fran- chises to ehable them to get only the big ‘business which will pay them large returns, without going out in outlying districts, where they would under great expense to gupply cur. : rent to small users.

OF RAREST COLOR WORK Boston . Artist Succeeded in Matching the Marvelous Tones of the Desert.

A treat for art lovers will be revealed at the City Art Museum in Forest Park today, when 60 water-color paintings executed in Greece, Ceylon and Egypt by Henry Bacon, a Boston artist, who died last year, are placed on exhibition in three of the galleries, to remain there a month. The pictures recently were exhibited at the Boston Art Club and at the Montross Gallery in Sw York, eliciting the highest praise from the critics of those cities. ‘Although Bacon had few peers in de- picting the life, the scenery and the at- mosphere of the countries in which he worked, he is comparatively unknown in this part of the world because he spent the last 15 years of his life abroad.. He called London his home, but he spent every winter in Egypt, where he died, and there, perhaps, his greatest work was done. Whereas most painters are overawed by the colossal ruins in the ancient land of the Pharaohs, Bacon's encom- passing humanity took in the life of the present and his pictures consequent- ly are faithful portrayals of the strange peoples that now inhabit that land. Used Ruins as Settings. He did not overlook the pictorial value of the vast ruins. On the contrary, he used the colossi most effectively as set- tings for the life of Egypt as it Is to- day. By painting groups of the desert peo- ples at the bases of those great monu- ments, he produced powerful contrasts between the mighty past and the puny present, emphasizing vividly the fleeting life of man. A striking example of this is ‘‘The Last of the Krio Sphinxes,” where a drowsy shepherd is shown tending his flocks in the shadow of the great stone image. Another is “Entrance to the Rock Temple of Abou Simbel,’”’ in which are shown the tiny, hooded figures of two Arabs. seated by a camp fire be- fore the towering mass.of masonry and carved figures. One of the remarkable features of Bacon’s work is the fidelity with which he reproduced the colors of the desert lands. Formerly a painter in oils, he turned to water colors 20 years ago when he found that by their use he could more accurately and appealingly tones of the 1 landscapes. he loved. ~ ‘Fe used water celorsias they were in- tended to be used—flowing them in transparent washes—sometimes blend- ing them and at other times laying them side by side in crisp and éffec- tive fashion. Camped in the Desert. Bacon went into the’desert to get detai's of his work. Frequently, it is related, he camped out with Bedouins for weeks while depicting their life on “‘the : 1 of sands.” His African pictures, however, are not mere wonderful than those painted in Greece and Ceylon, critics affirm. He seemed to catch the spirit—the color spirit as well as the Hfc—of the warm countries, in a way that few artists have mastered. All the pictures in the collection to be shown here were pair.ted during the last two years of Bacon’s life. Dan Nugent Praises Bacon, Dan C. Nugent, president of the B. Nugent & Bro. Dry Goods Co., was acquainted with Bacon and is a great admirer of his work. “When Mrs. Nugent and I were in Egypt in February, 1900, we Bacon at Cairo,” sai Nugent. “Mr. Bacon was then engaged in painting Egyptian scenes and I took. much interest in observing his methods. “On account of the great heat, he would go out to sketch and paint at Gaylight and then resume his work at the close of day. Mrs. Nugent and I both thought Mr. Bacon caught the color and life of Egyptian scenery in a high degree, and [I was very glad to purchase one of his pictures, which [I still own and prize very highly.” CONVICT TRIES TO JUMP INTO MOTHER’S GRAVE Parent Had Prayed for Him, Made Him Her Heir and Cease- lessly Sought Pardon. KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 1.—Este}] Butler, kno&vn as ‘“Foot-and-a-Half”’ Butler, a 66-year-old convict from the Missouri Penitentiary at Jefferson City, brought here to attend the funeral of “ts mother today, attempted to throw himself into the grave at the burial. The coffin was being lowered in Mount St. Mary’s Cemetery when Butler threw himself upon it. Mourners dragged the convict back. He fell prostrate by" the grave. The mother, Mrs. Rose Butler, had willed all her savings, about $2500, It was her dying request to prison officials that Butler be allowed to attend her funeral. Her life had centered about the penitentiary since the day, seven years ago, when Butler was sent to prison from Joplin. When the mother lay dying in 8st. Joseph's Hospital, she had the nurses pray that she might be saved “for Es- tell.” It was her fancy that none other than herself ever could carry pardon to him, When she recognized that she was dying, she swore those about her to carry on the fight for her son’s free- dom,

YOAYE COMING X SYMPHONY SOLOIST === WEEK OF MARGH 3 There will be no Symphony Orchestra concerts next Friday afternoon or Sat- urday evening, nor Tuesday afternoon lecture recital by Quarles, but the fol- lowing week all will be resumed, with the most interesting soloist of the en- tire Symphony Orchestra season, Ysaye, playing at both concerts. Ysaye, who has not been heard here for years, is recognized as the great- est living violinist. There is tremendous interest in his appearance at the Sym- phony concerts, and in response to many requests the sale of tickets for the two concerts will begin tomorrow morning at Bollman’s, giving an extra week for the sale. He will play twice at both concerts, giving the Viotti concerto in A minor with cadenza by Ysaye, and the Saint-Saens concerto in B minor.

FREEHOLDER BOARD NOMINATIONS 10 BE CONSIDERED TODAY Joint Charter Conference Calls Public Meeting at the Public Library. WILL VOTE BY _ BODIES Conference Has Pick of 50 Names Suggested by 20 Civic Organizations. | The Joint Charter Conference, repre- senting business and civic organizations interested in the mdvement for a new city charter, announces through its sec- retary, Roger N. Baldwin, that a meet- ing will be held at 3 o’clock this after- noon in the assembly room of the Pub- lic Library, Fourteenth and Olive streets, to consider the qualifications of men suggested as members of a pros- pective Roard of Freeholders. More than a week ago the conference sent to the various commercial and civic bodies blank ballots on which each of these organizations was asked to nomi- nate a number of men for Freeholders. These nominations are to be weighed at the general meeting today. The secretary's notice pointed out that a Freeholder must be the owner of real | estate in St. Louis and a qualified voter, and urged that the board should be con- stituted without regard to party affilia- tions. The following recommendations were made: ‘‘Members of the board should not be connected with public service.or fran- chise-holding companies. “They should not be connected in any way with a special or private interest which might affect their judgment in considering: the public interest. “Professional politicians should not be members of the board. ‘‘Men should be selected whose inter- est in the public good and whose record in public affairs show them.to be thor- oughly on the side of the interests of the whole public, and for a progressive form of government, controlled by the whole people.” A board of freeholders to draft a new city charter, Baldwin’s letter advised, may be nominated either in political convention or on a non-par- tisan ballot by petition of 1000 citi- zens. In case neither political con- vention this week nominates a slate approved by the conference, it will place its candidates in the field by means of petition. In choosing its ticket, the confer- ence will have the pick of 50 names suggested by 20 organizations, and of this number 25 or 30 will be pre- sented to the four City Central Com- mittees, which have promised _ that the recomendations of the conference will have careful consideration. Un- der the law, 13 candidates may be finally chosen. The meeting this afternoon will be open to the public. Voting will be by organizations. The Advertising Men’s League, the Building Trades’ Council, the Franklin Avenue Im- provement Association, the Real Estate Exchange, the Rotary Club, the Southwestern Mercantile Asso- ciation and the Tower Grove Heights Improvement Association have re- cently joined the conference.

And, since she is credited with having done a brillant bit of work at the matinee per- fermance ‘preceding her submission to the surgeon’s knife. about all that is left for her apprehensive friends is the voicing of an earnest hope that the ex- citement of her creative effort in drama may cause no harm itn its bearing upon ) lier physical power to resist the shock of the appendicitis operation. She has, at any rate, the satisfaction of knowing that she stood pluckily true to the coel- ors of the Stage Society of New York, under whose auspices “The Honeymoon’ received its metropolitan try-out at the [.vceum Theater last Monday afternoon. The story of the play; which was one of last season's big London hits, be- sins just three hours after its two cen- tral figures have, as they fondly be- Heve, been made husband and wife by a young man whom they supposed to be a full-fledged curate, but who now, they learn, hac no authority to per- form the ceremony.. During these three hours, however, they have already quarreled, the young man insisting upon abridging their honeymoon in order that he may defeat a German rival in an aviation contest, his patriotic mo- tive being the maintaining of England's prestige. Wherefore, when a good old Bishop offers to tie.a really binding nuptial knot for them, the ‘‘bride” re- fuses, contending that her ‘“bride- , ysroom loves his country. better than ‘he loves her, Happily, at this junc- ture, the German aviator breaks his ie ina trial. flight, the sky-race with the “bridegroom” . is necessarily de- Jetarea off, the young couple reach an ae eas mance of a valid marrage ceremony, their honeymoon: is resumed. The play is said to be rich in hum- orous lines and bright comedy situa- tions.. Associated with Miss Crews in its clever presentation were. Howard Estabrook as the young groom, G. W. Anson as the old Bishop, Mrs. Sarah Cowell LeMoyne as a_ strong-minded woman. novelist, Albert Reed as her hen-pecked husband, Ernest Lawford as the bogus curat», and Frank Reicher in a waiter. An interesting development in connec- tion with the Metropolitan Opera House production of Walter Damrosch’s grand opera, “Cyrano de Bergerac,’’ is the an- nouncement of the composer and of W. J. Henderson, the librettist, that they purpose dividing their royalties with Ed- mond Rostand, author of the play from which the opera is made. Poet Rostand was unable to obtain an American copyrjght on “Cyrano de Ber- gerac’’ because of the decision of an American court that his play was a Plagiarism of “‘The Merchant Prince of Corneville,”” by Millionaire Gross of Chicago. Nevertheless, when the late Richard Mansfield produced “Cy rano” on the American stage, he sent Rostand the | regular. royalties, believing the French- man, morally. entitled to. them. Now, however, there is another difficulty in the way: Rostand has protested against the Damrosch-Henderson operatic vers- ton of his play, the French: Society of Dramatie Authors has filed. with the Metropolitan Opera House its own for- mal protest against the production, and Rostand declares that, while the French Society of Dramatic Authors will accept the opera royalties if sent, this action must not be construed as meaning that he himself consents to tbe opera’s con- tinued production. Quite to the contrary, he says, he will never sanction the work and, also, he will take steps to make its European production impossible. ‘ This is an awkward. situation. ‘of course, but the American composer and librettist of the opera made from Ros- tand’s play have at least manifested a spirit of fair dealfmge in so far as the financial aspect of their venture is can+ cerned. In the .meantime, with the French Society of Dramatic Authors ac- cepting the opera royalties on Rostand’s behalf, it may he hoped that Rostand wiil become reconciled to such a situa- tion in the due course of events, especial- ly if-the Damrosch-Henderson work de- velops into a permanent suctess of prime royalty-earning powers. Pf Sip x# On the evening of Tuesday, March 4, when President-elect Wilson duly shal! have been transformed into President Wilson by the grace of the American people through the medium of the day’s formal ceremonies, a play by Frederick Arnold Kummer entitled ‘‘The Painted Woman” will receive its premiere pro- duction at The Playhouse in New York City with Florence Reed as its title role star. Miss Reed is most vividly remembered by St. Louis playgoers for her very. ex- cellent work as I!!ona, the adventuregs, in support of Walker Whiteside in “The Typhoon” last season. Since that time, after playing with Mr. Whiteside in New York, she became a co-star. with Mal- coim Williams in ‘“‘The Master of the House,”’ leaving the cast of this plav, however, before it reached St. Louis not long ago. Now, in “The Painted Wom- an,”’ she is swung backward in Time’s flight to the closing days of the seven- teenth century and appears.in the role of a beautiful Spanish girl taken captive by the West Indian buccaneers in their looting of a Spanish treasure-ship which had become their ill-won prey. The scenes of the story are laid in Port Royal, on the Island of Jamaica, its incidents incorporate much of the spirit of romance and adventure that makes the record of those times so colorful, and Miss Reed is said to have a part which gives the amplest opportunity for a'full revelation of her gifts as an eme- tional and melodramatic actress of un- common power. It is announced that the play will re- ceive an impressive, scenic production and, remembering that it is William A. Brady who makes the production, it is {n order to look for at least one big pirate “mob scene” of memorable fervor and vital thrill. , a ie ee a Ete FRECKLES Now Is the Time to Get Rid of Those Ugly Spots. The woman with tender skin dreads March because it is likely to cover her face with ugly freckles. No mat- ter how thick her veil, the sun and winds have a strong téndency to make her freckle. Fortunately for the peace of mind, the recent discovery of a new prescrip- tion, othine—double strength, makes it ssible for even those most suscepti- le to freckles to keep the skin clear and white. No matter how stubborn a case of freckles you have, the double strength othine should remove them.

WAR, AGRICULTURE, INTERIOR UNFILLED None of Names Mentioned for These Three Places, It Is Said, Will Be in the Final List to Be Sent to. the Senate. By Associated Press. NEW'-YORK, March 1.—Congressman William C. Redfield of Brooklyn will be Louis D. Brandeis of roaston, mentioned for Cabinet. . Whose name has been this post, will not be in the new Cab- inet. night from an authoritative source Trenton, N. J. Three places in the new Cabineit—the portfolios of war, interior and xgricul- ture—still are under consideration b/7 President-elect Wilson. Only himself and one other person know the names of the men to be sent to the Senate for confirmation “’r these three places. It was stated, »>wever, that none of the names that have beea prominently mentioned for any cf these three plates will be included in the final list. This information was received to- in Ex-Governors Out of It. This statement bars the name of for- mer Gov. Norris of Montana, ‘former Gov. Burke of North Dakota, Norman Peall of Oregon, former Gov. Hawley of Idaho, State Chairman Tallman of Nevada, Jerry B. Sullivan of Iowa, and Col, George Goethals from further con- Sideration for Cabinet places. _ President H ‘Waters of the Kansas ‘Btate Agricultural ‘College, Senator Oba- diah Gardner of Maine, and Prof. Charles W.

In preparing his speeches last sum- mer, Mr. Wilson said last night, ‘“‘he had frequent occasion to consult Con- gressman Redfield. No Cabinet nanes will be announced, it was said, until President-elect Wilson sends the final list to the Senate for confiramation. New England Against Brandeis. The opposition of the New England Democrats in Congress, and especially that of those hailing from Massachu- setts, is responsible, it is said, for the failure of Louis Brandeis to secure the a intment of Secretary of Commerce. hen Brandeis’ name was first men- tioned in this connection the New En- giand Democrats in Congress held a meeting in Washington and voiced their protest-against his selection. It was argued that Brandeis was not a Demo- Post- erat, that he was regarded as a Roose- :ing given to his wife and his son to him. velt Republican, and that he had es- |When he left the country Steele took poused the cause of Col.

There is no question bout his Democracy and the announce- ment that he has accepted the tender made to him met with general approval mORS his colleagues. “TURKEY PLACES PEACE IN HANDS OF POWERS| “2 LONDON, March 1.—The Turkish Govy- _ @rnment today definitely abandoned its tanh sipulations in connection é peace and placed the Ottoman _ ‘eatise unreservedly in the hands of the Bu powers, with a request to con- ‘Clude peace as a@vantageously as pos- for Turkish interests. : , as has been the case before. ey changes ter mind before terme L Meaodnatoded. it is believed here «i- lations will be resumed Representative | Redfield is regarded as one of the most ‘death several years lateer. ‘GERMANY SEEKS SHORT, and his | For this rea- Who was looking after his household, ‘followed him to Canada and remained | TAFT IN FAREWELL TALK ADMITS PROCRASTINATION Tells Newspaper Men His Resetting Sin Has Been Indisposition to Labor—Expects to En- joy Discussing Other Administrations.

He acknowledged his “besetting sin,”’ said that he would be nothing but a “kicker and a squealer” if, he regretted what fortune and the countty had given and declared that he expected to Press Club, and sit and chat with his newspaper friends over the doings of another administra- tion which, like his own, might make mistakes, It was a most unusual speech, one of the frankest which those who have ob- served the President's addresses closely for years had heard or read. “I have never wanted office, but I have been in office since I was 21,’’ said President Taft.* “I have served on the bench, in the Philippines, in the War Department and in the presidency. There has been a time that I didn’t my ‘plate’ up at the right time and ‘I held as I properly could. “Now, gentlemen, after this record, still in health, do you suppose that I regret anything, that I have an occa- it as long joron. for kicking and squealing? What kind of a man would [ be if I did, with the measure all on my side? Now I am looking to see if I can’t repay the country and fertune for the good things siven me and if I can’t work in the cause of good government. “I think that one of the mental pro- cesses that helps mankind is a man’s ability once in a while to sit quiet and take stock and see how the world has treated him. It is difficult for me not to feel very grateful for what has hap- pened to me. When I look back over my 55 years of life and see how every good thing has come to me and very little bad, it seems to me that I ought to brace myself against what might come in the future to offset the good luck that has attended me before. “My sin is an indisposition to labor as hard as I might; a disposition to procrastinate and a disposition to en- joy the fellowship of others more than I ought. “TIT hope to leave a pleasant flavor with you, because I want you to know that I would be grateful to renew our friendships. I am not of a mind to treat defeat as exile from Washington, and I expect to come back here and sit down with you again and talk with you about some others in office with a cer- | tain som of sympathetic satisfaction.” EXILE TEN YEARS RETURNS AND BEGS FOR PRISON TERM Former Ohio Lawyer Was Con- victed of Blackmail in Hand- ling Divorce Case. CINCINNATI, March, 1—Thomas Steele, 10 years ago a member of the Franklin County bar at Columbus, O., and a member of a well Known Ohio family, indicted and convicted of blackmail, appeared before United States District Judge Hollister today Aha~begged to be given the punish- ment to avoid which he had been a fugitive for 10 years. Before he became involved in the trouble which led to his conviction Steele was retained by a Mrs. Miller to secure a divorce for her. She came, as did Steele, originally from Lancaster, and she Knew him there.’ She had no money for the expenses of the divorce suit and gave Steele the names of a number of men who were acquainted with her and who she thought would contribute to the cost of the case. Steele wrote letters to a number of the men. In one case the letter fell into the hands of the wife of the man addressed and the wife demand- ed an explanation. This man at once charged blackmail and started pros- ecution and the other men to whom letters had been written, joined in the complaint. Mrs, Miller’s scapes sacs also sued for divorce. Steele declared that after ile been convicted and sentenced to a fine and 13 months imprisonment at Fort Leavenworth, he had left Co- lumbus while out on bond. He said he changed his name and located in Canada where he has since been prosperous. Worried by a trou- blesome conscience, however, he re- cently decided to return and accept his punishment. Judge Hollister declared that he had been informed regarding the case and had reason to know that the facts as stated to him were true.

UR FIRE VIGTINS Twenty or More Bodies Embed: 1 ded in Ruins of Dewey Hotel at Omaha. OMAHA, March 1.—A hundred men tonight worked by the aid of hasthy strung electric lights in the debris of the burned Dewey Hotel in an effort to recover the 20 or more bodies which are supposed to have been entombed when the walls of the building col- lapsed early yesterday. Below zero temperature pravails and a stiff wind blows. The men worked in a great mass of ice weighing hundreds of tons and imbedded in this great cake are supposed to be the bodies of those who were unable to escape from the burning hotel. This number is estimated at from 2 to 50. It is believed many bodies were destroyed before the floors fell and the true number of the dead never may be known. The hotel register, which was recovered this afternoon, was badly burned, but showed at least 63 guests were at the hotel. Only.a few names can be deciphered. Less than 30 of the guests can be accounted for. Of these, three are dead and six are in the hos- pital. Rumor of Incendiarism. The State Fire Marshal arrived here today to investigate the origin of the fire. Rumore are that it was the work of an incendiary and the Coroner prom- ises a sensation at the inquest. The pv- lice are holding three men under sur- veillance. Only one body was recovered today, that of Mrs. Alice Bonnevie of Sun- beam, Colo. The body was identified only by jewelry, being so badly burned and battered as to be unrecognizable. A great part of the day was consumed in tearing down the tottering walis, which menaced the rescuers. The hero of the fire was discovere:] today to have been Frank Murray. His back was broken several months ago and by a rare operation he partly was restored to health and was recuperating in the hotel. When awakened by the smoke, he hobbled down the hall, beat- ing with his cane upon each door énd arousing a number who escaped. At the head of the steps, Murray fainted and dropped, but rolled down to safeiy. His broken back was injured, and he again is paralyzed from the waist down. $1000 Necklace Unclaimed. Late today workmen found a pearl necklace, with diamond pendant, the whole valued at more than $1000. No claimant has appeared, and the owner is believed to have perished. M. lL. Maver, a traveling salesman of Columbus, O., is supposed to be among the lost. An hour before the fire he separated from friends, saying he was going to the Dewey for the night. He was not seen today. Theatrical clothing in the debris leads to the belief several chorus girls were burned to death.

It was consid- ering appropriation bills. WASHINGTON, ing until nearly passing March 2.—After work- 1 o’clock this morning, the. Workmen’s compensation law, and handling a mass of appropria- tion bills, the House took a recess until 2:30 o’clock this afternoon. In order to obviate the necessity for a Sunday ap- pearing as a Legislative day in the record, a recess was taken, preserving the Legislative day of March 1. The Senate remained in session tonight for action on President Taft’s appoint- ments and because of a filibuster against the rivers and harbors and public build- ings appropriations. biHs, which threat- ened to defeat them and put them over for emergency action at the extra ses- sion to be called by to meet April 1. The Senate also lis- tened to eulogies on the late Senator Davis of Arkansas. The Senate’s Workmen’s compensation bill was passed in the House by a vote of 218 to 71, after a long debate. The bill, which was amended by the House Judiciary Committee to apply to express companies and other common carriers, as well as railroads, provides specific rates of compensation for accidental in- juries, resulting in disability or death to employes. It will now go to conference. Representatives Hardwick and Henry and other Democrats had conducted a filibuster against the bill because ‘of its precedence on the calendar. Congress tonight still had 13 ef its 15 big supply bills unfinished. Chairman Burnett of the House Public. Buildings Committee said the “public brildings bill is as dead as.a door nail.’’ He said the Senate had insisted on its amend- ments for many millions of dollars, and it had been impossible to reach an agreement. Senators Root, O’Gorman and Bristow had issued a direct ultimatum that the the House of Representatives must either accept some of the general emendments put into tne public build- ings bill by the Senate or the measure would not pass at this session of Con- zress. Senator Newlands of Nevada, holding the floor for. several hours dur- ing the day, insisted that there should be no action on the river and harbor conference report unless an opportunity was given for a vote in the House on his amendment proposing a river regula- tion board to take control of all water- way development. r Conference Committees Busy. Conference committees worked until after last midnight and throughout to- day attempting to adjust differences. In case any bill fails of passage, it will be necessary for the extra session to take them up, so that Government depart- ments may not be bankrupted. By a vote of 37 to 26 the Senate at 11:30 tonight refused to re-enter upon the consideration of the conference re- port on the rivers and harbors bill. The negative vote was due to a combination of general opposition on the part of some Senators and a desire to take up the genefal deficiency appropriation bii: and the seamen’s servitude bil!. This action was generally taken as indicat. ing the ultimate failure of the rivers and harbors bill at this session: The opposition to the public buildings bill was based on the ground that the Conference Committee had omitted al] the general items and had left only the local appropriations, which Senator Bris- tow referred to as ‘‘grab’’ items. Among the Senate amendments dropped out of the bill were those for the Arlington memorial bridge, a militia armory, an extension of the park system and a na- tional Red Cross building, all in Wash- ington, and $3,000,000 for a New York courthouse. The only measures that had reached the President today were the fortifica- tions appropriation bill, involving about $4,000,000, and the diplomatic and con- sular bill, carrying more than $3,000,000. The measures resting in precarious con- dition involved total appropriations of more than $1,000,000,000. The postoffice appropriation bill was sent to conference by the Howse today after a motion of Representative Mur- dock of Kansas to disagree to the Sen- ate amendment increasing the pay of the railroads for carrying the mail by about $9,000,000 had been voted down. The Senate amendment to the Indian appropriation bill to pay a $500,000 claim of the Pottawatomie Indians has tied up that bill in conference. The conferees have disagreed and the Hiouse will be asked to insist upon elimination of that amendment and further conference. Deficiency Bill Reported. Carrying a total of $28,048,624, an in- crease of $3,824,514 over the House total, the general deficiency bill was reported to the Senate tonight.

LOUIS BOHEMIA SOLVES THE RIDDLE OF DAZZLING GIRL Had Cafe Until Fiance Brought Suit. Milliner’s Habitues Daughter Puzzled The “Cafe Girl,’’ whose Spectacular portrayal of the role of Lady Bountiful of Bohemia has been an enig- ma in the night life of St. Louis for the last month, has been revealed as the Ccaughter of an Edwardsville milliner. The discovery came through a re- plevin suit, brought by a man said to have been her fiance, to strip her of the diamonds and the big automobile with Which she puzzled habitues of rathskel- lers and roadhouses in St. Louis, St. iouis County and East St. Louis during her brief but brilliant career. She is Miss Catherine Lanham, li vears old, and her mother conducts a millinery, establishment at. 225 North Main street, Edwardsville. The man who unveiled her masqjerade as a college girl of independent means und Bohemian tastes was Clarence Ger- ker, 23 years old, of Edwardsville, who says he recently inherited $40,000. He ulleges that the diamonds and the auto- inobile which for four.weeks dazzled the region of white lights were bought with his own money, which he advanced for the completion of her education be- fore they should be married. His petition states that the jewels are valued at $670 and the motor car at $1825. Both are now in the hands of the Sheriff. Miss Lanham created gossip when she first plunged into cafe life. She made friends readily, and her automobile was always at their service. Sitting at the wheel, which she managed with the skill of an experienced chauffeur, she acted as hostess to auto parties which spent the greater part of many nights at St. Louis County and East St. Louis restaurants.

INEW NICKEL GREETED } AS A FAKER IN ST, LOUIS

Post-Dispatch Reporter Introduces the Buffalo-| Indian Head Coin and Is All But Ar- rested Trying to Pass It.

Such an innovation proved the new nickel with an Indian head on one ‘side and a buffalo on the other, which was put in circulation for the first time in St. Louis yesterday, that a Post-Dis- patch reportér was in danger of arrest in one instance when attempting to spend one of the coins, and was treated with sarcasm by several tradesmen to whom its fellows were submitted in payment. The reporter went around with the new nickel to see what recep- tion it would get. Even a bartender, who is accustomed to accepting all sorts of weird metal checks in his trade, inquired ironically, after examining a 1913 nickel given to him for a cigar in his place on Locust street, whether his customer took him for a collector of curios. But when con- vineed that the novelty was really coin of the realm, the bartender was so eager to obtain one of the pieces as a souvenir that he offered two 15-cent cigars in exchange for it. Bootblack Suspicious, The reporter offered one of the new nickels in a Greek shoe-shining parlor at 207 North Seventh street. Only the intervention of another customer, who offered to guarantee that the coin was sound, prevented the proprietor from summoning a policeman. Conductor 4283 on the Seventh street line looked askance at one of the ‘‘buf- falo” nickels when it dropped in his box. ‘“O yes,” he recollected after a moment, “that’s one of the new ones. All right.” “You'll have to come cleaner than

that,”” remarked Solomon Schwartz, a clerk in a cigar store at 612 Olive street, when a new nickel was offered him in payment for a cigar. But he rang it up on the cash register when another customer assured him it was real inoney. The polite objection, “I tiink you gave me a pocket piece by mistake,” was made by Miss Hazel Smith, clerk in a news stand at 509 Olive street. She refused to take the coin until another young woman who entered the store told her it was one of the new nickels. At a candy store at Broadway and live street the young woman cashier consulted with the manager before ac- cepting one of the coins. The new coin bears little resem- blancg save in size and material to the old nickel, which bore the head of a woman on one side and a.“V" surrounded by a wreath on the other. In the new nickel the designs are raised in even bolder relief than those of the old coin as the surfaces around them are-sunk deeper beneath the rim. It bears a minute oe: under the date on ‘the lidian-head sign. This is the surname initial of the designer, James Earl Fraser. The Lincoln pennies issued four years ago were recalled and recoined wien it was learned thgt Victor D. Beenner, the designer, had engraved his initials on them. A dispatch from Washington yesterday stated that Fraser had permission from the Sec- retary of the Treasury to include the “F”’ in the design of the new nickels.

is PROTON BL BECOMES A LAW OVER TAFT'S VET House, 244 to 95, Repasses Webb Measure, Which Senate Had Readopted, 63 to 21. a é WASHINGTON, March 1.—The Webb bill, prohibiting the shipment of intoxicating liquors into prohi- bition states, today became a law, when the House by a vote of 244 to 95, repassed over the veto of Presi- dent Taft the measure, which the Senate repassed last night by a vote of 63 to 21. Only once before in the last 15 years has Congress overridden a President's veto. That was when the Rainey river dam bill was passed over President Roosevelt's disap- proval. The Webb bill passed both houses of Congress and went to the Presi- dent 10 days ago. The veto message reached the Senate at 3 o’clock yes- terday afternoon. President Taft based his veto al- most entirely on the ground that the bill was unconstitutional in that it virtually delegated to the states control of interstate traffic in liquor, when, he held, that control was vest- ed solely in Congress. Attorney- General Wickersham had given an opinion also holding the bill to be unconstitutional and the President forwarded that to the Senate yester- day with his veto mesage. Wide Margin Is Given. The Senate repassed the bill promptly last night and early today the House leaders favoring the meas- ure, led by - Representative Clayton, chairman of the Judftciary Commit- tee, and Representative Webb, one of its framers, began working for an immediate repassage. Debate was limited and the House repassed the bill with as wide a margin over the necessary two-thirds vote as the Sen- ate had done. Supporters of the bill say it will make effective the prohibition laws of dry states, which, they say, now are violated because intoxicants are shipped to private individuals and this has the effect of nullifying the Tocal laws. The Webb bill, in one form or an- other, has been before Congress for nearly 30 years. The question involved is not of itself a prohibition question. The bill leaves the qwuestion whether prohibition is wise where it is now, pro- viding that when a community decides that it wants prohibition it may have it without interference by the Federal Gov- ernment. Fight Lester 23 Years. One version of the law was passed, but the Supreme Court in 189 held it unconstitutional. Again, for 283 years, in a form to meet the constitutional objection, It has been before the House and Senate, but never until the present had it emerged from the Senate com- mittee, and only once had it come from the, House committee. Doubtless it would have passed by a good margin, but many Congressmen were grateful! for a chance to escape voting on the bill. After three futile attempts in Jan- uary to obtain unanimous consent to vote on the Kenyon bill (the Webb bil) in another form), Senator Sanders of. Tennessee Jan. 10 asked unanimous con- sent to vote on the bill and got it, but Senator Smoot arose and said that had he been listening he would have ob- jected to unanimous consent. A two- day discussion was precipitated on the parliamentary question whether unani- mous consent, once given, can be re- scinded. Finally it was decided, for the first time in the history of the Senate. to revoke a unanimous consent. I[t wae pointed out that many Senators took a position out of a sincere desire to up- hold the sacredness of the unanimous Senator Gallinger

The foundations of the apartment houses, which are on adjoining 50-foot lots, at the southwest corner, had been laid, when, in 1908, 30 property owners of the neighborhood sued to enforce re- strictions which, they sald, forbade the crection of apartments. Work was stopped, and the foundations have re- mained without buildings on them. Suit Against a Woman, The suit was directed against Mrs. Honora McGowan, owner of the prop- erty, and against Thomas Bidwell, the feontractor. Mrs. McGowan died while the matter was in litigation, and the: property is now in the name of Dr, Lan-- gan, her son-in-law. Circuit Judge Withrow decided in fa- vor of the apartments, holding that the eighboring property. holders had per- mitted the restrictions to be violated in other cases and that the restrictions had thus became a dead letter. The property owners appealed to the Court of Appeals, and that court yesterday reversed Judge Withrow’s decision and ordered that the foundations be removed or that plans be prepared to conform to the restrictions. Women Fight Apartments. These restrictions state that only one dwelling shall be. placed on each lot. Perry Post Taylor, lawyer for the prop- erty owners, contended that the apart- ments would be a number of dwellings, When he learned last night of Dr, Langan’s threat to build houses for ne- groes, Taylor said he did not know that this could he legally prevented, but that possibly Dr. ate wit, would think better of it. Some of the property owners who have fought the proposed apartments are Mrs, Alice 8. Thompson, James EF. Stans- bury, Cabell Gray and Anna Montgom- ery.

Mrs. Idelle Wynn, 19 years old, of Gunnersville, Tenn., was arraigned in East St. Louis yesterday with De Witt Nellis, a merchant of Cairo, Ill. They are charged with violating a. Federal law by arranging an interstate trip for immoral purposes. The arrest was made a warrant:by Detectives Hurley yoetz, accompanied by Deputy States Marshal George Keys. It was obtained by Attorney J. B. Mes- a Federal agent for the sup- pression of the white slave and other immoral traffic. The pair, when and before Coltas, were confronted by R. W. Wynn, tlie He sat within arm’s length of his wife, but there was ho sign of recognition between the two. Wynn said he trailed his wife from Shelbyville, Tenn., to Cairo, and found that she went to a hotel with Nellis. He also test’.44 that his wife was ac- companied on her flight by their 4-year- old son, Robert Wynn Jr. Husband Finds Letters. When the husband reached the hotel in Cairo, where his wife and Nellis had been, the couple had departed. He ob- tained permission to inspect the room they had occupied and found a coat which had been left by Nellis. coat were two letters written by Nellis to Mrs.-Wynn and_ returned to him by ner. The postmarks showed the letters had been sent from Cairo to Gunners- ville and received there. The letters were read at the inary hearing before the United States Commissioner. One of them said:.**Dear Chicken—I have received no wire from you, but am sending you $14.75 to pay your expenses. Baby, when you come to Cairo I will have two tickets to Last St. Louis or Murphysboro. Stay on the train and sit somewhere so no one wil} be likely to see you.” The other letter referred to plans sug- gested by Nellis for living in East St. Louis or Murphysboro in a way to avoid detection. Admits Trip to Hotel. / When Mrs. Wynn was placed on the witness stand she admitted that she and Nellis had been at the hotel in Cairo, after she had sat,with her eves diverted and her head bowed for a few minutes, during Which time her husband, having left the Com- missioner’s office in the Murphy building,’ paced the adjoining corri- dor, holding his little son by the hand. Before the letter left behind by Nellis, in which he mentioned the remittance of $14.75 for railroad tickets had been read, Mrs. Wynn had ‘sworn that she paid her own expenses and the remittance was for clothes. Following the hearing, Nellis and Mrs. Wynn were sent back to the police station to await the action of the Federal grand jury, which meets in East St. Louis, Monday. The boy was sent to the home of Mrs. Brauer, 1002 State street, to be cared for. “I ‘Know What Love Is.” When the Commissioner ordered Mrs. Wynn back to jail, she walked out of the office with merely a glance at her husband, who was try- ing to keep their little bov from see- ing his mother escorted away by of- ficers As Mrs. Wynn started for lice station, she said: ae Witt Nellis better than my better even than my own little better than anybody in the ant I am going to marry him.

Frederick Zeibig, and ‘Henry L. Cornet are the executors of the will of Thomas F.

The petition was under the complete control of Cornet & Zeibig and that it was in their offices that the will was drawn up. The will provides that the estate must bear the expense of any bond required of the administrators, Cor- & Zeibig. The chief heneficiary under the will is a brother, John A. Hayden, who lives in Los Angeles. He given three-fourths.of>the estate re- maining whep bequests of $120. have been paid to 12 Catholic socie- ties and _ =Iinstitutions in St. Louis.

Calls Petition Absurd. Hayden was 75 vears old at the time of his death. He was one of the pio- neer slate roofing contractors of St. Louis, and it was in that industry that he amassed his fortune. Frederick Zeibig, administrators of the estate, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that the con- tested will was dictated by Hayden. and was in exact accord with his de- sires. « “The allegations of the petition are absurd,’ Zeibig said. “Hayden was competent to attend business, and knew exactly what wanted to do with his property.

In July, 19%, Dr. Simon was removed as Health Commissioner by Rolla Wells, then Mayor. During his term 4s Health Commissioner Dr. Simon had aspirations to run against Wells for Mayor in the spring of 199%. Charges were preferred against him by W. G. ‘MeConkey, secretary to Mayor Wells, alleging that he did not give all his time to his office, and had not famil farized himself with conditions at th? city institutions. Dr. Simon sought 6 restrain Wells from enforcing his dis- missal, on the ground that he had act- ed as Prosecutor and Judge, and had overstepped the limits of executive au- thority. Simon was not successful in his fight to retain his offig@e He at- tributed his troubles with the adminis- tration to his desire to wtn the mayor- alty nomination over Wells. One of the things for which Dr. Si- mon claims credit during his adminis; tration was a crusade for better fool for hospital patients. He started a ris- id investigation of all supplies delivered to the institutions, and charged that im- pure products were being palmed off on the city. Dr. Simon has been active in city pol- itics for many years, and was at ore time a member of the Democratic City Committee. He was a member of the original free bridge conference, of sev- ral improvement associations and the Stringer Hunting and Fishing Club.

Jarrett was chairman of the com- mittee, having been elected after Kiel was ousted by the Kreismann taction As one of the Republican Igaders Kiel supported the bond issue to complete the free bridge, but fn 1911, opposed the charter drafted by the Board of Free. holders.

The charter was beaten by a vote of more than two to one. He was nominated for sheriff ir. the city primary last August. He led the Republican ticket in the November elec- tion, but was defeated by a ngfrow margin by Joseph F. Dickmann, Dem- ocrat.

Committees. He is a sportsman, PRANK H. GERHART, 4990 Line dell boulevard. Former chairman of the Free Bridge and Grade Crossings com- mittees of the Real Estate Exchange. Gerhart is 53 years old, a native of St. Louis, He has given up much of his time during the last 10 years to civic movements, especially the free bridge and grade crossing legislation. He was the author of the resolution adopted by the Real Estate Exchange /advocating the free bridge, which was the first reso- lution of its kind te be pted in St. Louis. He was one of the leading spirits in numerous organizations creat- ed to foster the bridge, and ‘attended virtually every hearing on free bridge and grade crossings matters in the Mu- nicipal Assembly and Board of Public Improvements in the last six years. He was the author of the grade cross- ing bills abolishing the Tower Grove grades, bills which recently were de- clared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court because, it was held, they were unreasonable in their requirements of the railroad and because they had not | originated with the Board of Public Im- provements. He has been one of the leaders in the fight against the bridge! arbitrary, and in a private capacity ren- dered substantial aid to the Government } in the suit against the Terminal Rail-' road Association fer violation of the Sherman anti-trust law. When the Unit- ed States Circuit Court of Appeals was equally divided in ita opinion on this case, he aided in the passage of a bill providing in such emergencies that a fifth fudge shall be called in to pass upon the. case, and make a tie impos- sible. Gerhart was one of the leaders in the three recent fights against the bridge bond issues. His objection to voting the bonds was that the city administration had selected a site for the East Side ap- proach, which, he charged, would result in its being bottled up between the tracks of hostile railroads, and for the further reason that a franchise had Traction Co. to use the bridge. The bridge bonds were defeated at each election. ‘Gerhart is an advocate vf the northeast approach through the Candidates for CITY AUDITOR. Republican. WILLIAM R.

It is estimated this approach would cost about $5,000,- 000. Gerhart was active in the movement which led to the defeat of the proposed City Charter, drafted by the Board of Freeholders and submitted to a vote in February, 1911. Gerhart in 19809 was leader in a movement which sought to remove the Wabash Railroad tracks from the" Catlin tract, owned by private inter- ests, north of Forest Park to the park. As one of his reasons Gerhart argued that residence property in the immediate vicinity of the tracks would be increased fully $10,000,000. The plan advocated by Gerhart pro- vided that the tracks should be car- ried through the park on an over- head structure, which, he said, could be beautified with vines and made attractive. Although the Board of Public Im-" provements granted a public hearing in the matter, the plan was aban- doned because of opposition of mem- | bers of the board and of an aroused public opinion against it.

aes ee oP f era? * aks. SSeee ieee: March is t th of the whole year. It is the month of ill health and blizzards. February ~has passed with its epidemics of grip and holoeausts of colds, which have sown the seeds of disease and derangements broadcast. March is a month of un- toward weather, but is the month that reaps the consequences of February derangements. If one succeeds in get- ting through with the month of March even tolerably well, the rest of the. year will be comparatively easy. Every household ought to be pro- vided with Peruna. If you have had crip during the winter and have not

recovered your former health and strength you surely need Peruna. Peruna restores the appetite. Peruna increases the digestive powers. Pe- runa regulates the bowels. Peruna P2- No family Peruna during the month of March. The symptoms of grip are: First, begins with a cold not due to expo- sure, Second, a number of people attacked at same time. Third, con- fined chiefly to head and respiratory organs. Fourth, accompanied by high fever for several days. Fifth, serious Convalescence slow. The experiences of the people that Peruna is a remedy for grip have been uniformly good. Very few if any have been disappointed in Peruna as & grip remedy. Mr. C. O, Peterson, of No. 3327 N. Hamilton Av., Chicago, Dlinois, had a severe attack of the grip, which left him very weak. He was in a condi- tion that he was unable to do anv work. He began to take Peruna and in two weeks was strong and well. The consequence is he always keeps Peruna in his home. Mr. George E. Pratt, No. 828 19th St., Moline, Dlinois, writes concern- ing his wife. She had had the grip. After using two bottles of Peruna she wes greatly relieved. So much so

that she continued the treatment side & short time, when she was thor-

Not, however, until after he had taken several other remedies without any improvement. The Peruna completely cured him. Mr. C. J. Powers, No. 1631 Williams St., Denver, Colorado, says that the grip had left him very weak. He took | Peruna and at once ne began to gaia strength and was finally cured Since then when I do not feel well or have taken a cold I always take Peruna and it never disappoints me in its action. ; Thus we might go on indefinitely to recite cases where people have suf- fered from the after effects of grip Then they have resorted to this reim- edy or that remedy. Finally they have been cunstrained to take Peruna The result is always favorable. If the people generally understood the benefit of Peruna no household would be without it, during the month of March especially, when elimatic diseases prevail so extensively. Mrs. Charles Anspaugh, R. F. D. 1.}: Kimmell, Indiana, whose portrait is given above, writes: ‘‘Peruna has been a godsend to me. I can feel safe in saying that it saved my life, as I was all run down and was just mis- erable when 1 commenced taking your Peruna, but am on the road to recov. ery now. I cannot thank you too much, ’’—ADV. ee a + ceed

Magee is a stubborn performer and Hug may be extended to land him, but the betting is 10 to 8 that the little manager wins.

Injured i in Final Game, McKinley Five's Star Must Be Operated On

The basket ball season . Just closed, with McKinley High winning the cham- pionship, was the most successful since the old interscholastic league was estab- lished. Enough money was made by the four schools to defray the expenses of the spring pastimes at the various schools. Only two accidents occurred in besket ball @turing the 18 games played. Betts, of the Central High team, suffered a broken nose, while “Tiny” Fitzgerald, the classy little guard on the champion McKinley High five, is suffering from an injury in the abdomen. He is in the hospital now and will undergo an oper- ation. He was afflicted with a similar trouble during the baseball season last year, but had ne trouble in basket bal! suntil the last Central game, in which he participated too strenuously.

SUFFERS “EIGHTH | BASKET BALL LOSS Kansas University for Fourth Time This Season Defeats Pikeway Court Team.

By Ralph Bryan. In the final game of the 1912-13 basket ball schedule, at Francis Gym yesterday afternoon, the Washington U. five met defeat at the hands of the speedy Jayhawkers from Kansas University. The 29 anil spelt the fourth defeat administered the Kan- score was 42—~ this scason to the Pikers by sas team. As well Pikers’ contests, ing game of the Southern branch of of th» it was also the vlos- as being the last the Missouri Valley Conference series and clinched for Kansas the cham- pionship title. in their eight con ference games, the Jayhawkers have lost but one, that being to Missouri U. The State university comes second in the conference race, with a record of five victories to three defeats, while Washington brings up the rear, hav- ing lost every one of their eight championship battles. These eight games, however, were the only ones lost from their lst of twelve scheduled contests, the other four having been won in succession at the beginning of the season from Central Weslyan, Shurtleff and Ames. At the conclusion of these four vic- tories, the outlook was rather bright at the Pikeway school, but the eight following games, with the heavier conference fives, proved too much for the light Pikeway aggregation. Pikers Show Better Form. The game yesterday, while not as close as the one the evening before, wound up the season in better style than was for a time expected. It was the best exhibition the Piker five has put up, not including the contest of Friday night. During the first half the score ‘see-sawed back and forth, with the Pikers showing the better style of teamwork. Kansas did not gain a marked lead until just before the end of the first period, when Berryhill, who had been playing with a broken rib, was replaced by Jackson. The visitors’ then spurted ahead, winding up the half with a score of 24 to the Pikers’ 15. By dint of some spectacular shots on the part of Lacey and Modisette, Washington overcame this lead at the opening of the sec- ond half. But Kansas soon took the lead again, due to the work of Sproull and Green- less, and managed to pile up #2 points by the concluding whistle. Sproull Is Real Star, These two men gathered all but six of the Kansans’ tallies, Sproull being the particular star. The fast forward shot, eight out of 13 fouls and gathered seven field shots as well. Modisette was the locals’ chief point gain- er, annexing 15 points. Lacey, although scoring but twice, was Washington's most valuable floor man, because of his ability to follow the ball. Capt. Gray and Herryhijll also showed up well for the Pikers.

The attendance was the smallest that has attended any of the meets, while some of the stars en- tered in some of the events disappointed by not appearing. The M. A. C. athletes carried off thee honors by scoring the greatest number of points. The Cherry Diamond athletes annexed a total of 28 points,-the Y. M. C. A. being.second with 11, while the Reg- iment was third with nine points. The 600 and 1000 yards runs were pro- ductive of little excitement. In the for- mer avent C.

By Louis E. Steiner. T. LOU Is may not have a penhant winning ball team, but it has ene big S baseb?'' hoast: That it is the greatest baseball player-producing city on the map, proven by the fact that over 150 local boys will earn their living as members of the different major and minor league teams throughout the country, this season. A Mound Cityan is represented in nearly every league under the jurisdic- tion of the National Baseball Associa- tion. Every one of these players has at one time played in the local Trolley League or on the St. Louis lots. Of this 150 ball tossers, 16 are big leaguers, four of them are members of the Browns. As is always the case, Fred Clarke of the Pirates, gets the cream of the local talent. This season he will start with five Mound Cityans. Bdéby Byrne, who is a holdout, and who is one of the best third sackers in the National League; Artie Hofman, ex-Cub who will try to be a regular this season; Max Carev, who was 4 star in the outfield all last season: Walter Rehg, the “sas- siest’’ third sacker that ever broke into the big arena, and Bill Kelly, battery mate of Marty O'Toole. are the &t. Louis stars with the Pirates. The other three in the National league, Ed Reulbach will twirl for the Cubs again. Arthur Fletcher, who is al- ready in training, will try to help the Giants win another pennant, while Vin Campbell, who is engaged in the autemo- bile business in Pittsburg, is still the property of the lowly Boston Braves, Campbell says he will retire from base- Lall for good. American Takes Eight Local Men. While the National League grabbed 10 of the 16 major League men from St. Louls last season, this year each League gets eight.

While the end of most of the ‘profesh’ Is bad, it’s their own fault.

Take “Harlem” Tommy Murphy. There’s a clean, hard-worki-s boy, no particular championship class about him, either, but he’s well off now and still making money. ‘‘There are not more than 100 fighte"s who regularly earn from the fight gam. as much as $100 a month. Most of =2.n blow that as soon as they get it. Ollie Kirk of St. Louis quit a $%-a-month job to take up the game. He’s a high- class young man and has made good, although outside of St. Louis he is con- sidered a third-class fighter. ‘The game is better today because of the short-round fights and the mahy clubs in the country.

son, who was purchased by the Browns from the Mobile club for $2500, and who is looked upon as a possible successor to Bob Wallace, is the only ‘‘vet.”’ The other three players are from the Trolley League, and will hardly make. good on such a big jump, but they will be placed where the firm of Hedges & Co. can get first pick if they make good. “‘Red’’ Roche. a third sacker, who made the training trip with the Phillies last sea- son, and who led the local Trolley League in batting; Ernest Menestrina and Al Casey (both first sackers), who played indeperident }ball around St. Louis last season, are the three who will make the trip te Waco. In addition to the grand.total of 156 basebf!! players, St. Louls will send out seven umpires. Garnett Bush, last sea- sén in the National League, will go to the Pacific Coast, while “Red” Held, who worked the indicator in the Eastern As- sociation last season, will also go to the Coast. Joe Daley, last season tn the Trolley League, will, take the place left vacant by Held. Jack McNulty will work itm the Three-I League, Charlie Hart im‘ the Nebraska State League, Pat Betts in the Wisconsin-Illinois League, while Theodore Breitenstein, hero of many a Dattle on the diamond, who untl!l last season was a pitcher for the New Orleans team, will hold the indicator tn the Southern League.

Bronson has sent on word that he weighed but 145 pounds before he started training last Monday, while Kelly is said to weigh 141 pounds after several days of hard work. Bronson probably will weigh about 148 pounds when he steps on the Irish-American Club scales at the rinigside next Wednesday, while Kelly seems almost certain to weigh within a couple of pounds of that figure.

S Yeas next order of business will bea few words in regard to the second baseman or “custodian of the keystone position,”” as he is frequently called. This title does not belong entirely to him, as he shares his steward- ship jointly. with the shortstop. He is, however, officially in charge of the station, as the shortstop covers only when the exigencies of the situation _ demand that the second baseman be elsewhere. * * * HOWEVER, ALL MUST BE IN GOOD SHAPE, on basemen come in all shapes, there being no special requirements as to height. breadth, weight or previous conditidn of servitude. They run in leans, stouts, medium stouts and fats. The late “Cupid” Childs was in the latter class. The second baseman, many believe, has the hardest job on the team.

~ MEETING TO PUSH FEDERAL AID FOR GOOD STATE ROADS second Annual Convention to Meet in Washington March 6 and 7 to Be Addressed by Leading Men. To involve logically the National Government in the highways Prog ress of the country and to furthe discussion and action which ghall produce a plan satisfactory to the roads 2@vocates of the various states, is the concrete reason given by the A. A. A. National Good Roads Board for calling the Second Federal Aid Good Roads Convention, to which have been invited all organizations interested in this now nation-wide sitbject. In. the course of the five sessions which. will take place at The°Raleigh, in Washington, March 6 and 7, the entire subject will be comprehensively consid- ered by the most representative assem- blage of good roads advocates ever gath- ered in this country. The holding of the convention 4n Washington insures the attendance of many members of Con- gress, who in numerous instances will serve as delegates for their local boards of trade, and automobile and good roads associations. Yhough purposely the program has been left somewhat open in order to provide adequate time for several gen- eral discussions, an outline of the proceedings will quickly indicate its widespread scope. For the morning session of March 6, the registration of delegates, organization of the con- vention, and the appointment of resolu- tiens committee, will occupy the time, with a probable conclusion in the form of a call on the Presijlent of the United States at the White House. For the afternoon gathering, inv:- tations to address the convention have been extended to Hon. Jonathan Bourne Jr., of Oregon, chairman vf the joint committee on Federa) Aid for the Sixty-second Congress; Hon. Dorsey W. Shackleford, of Missouri, vice-chairman of the jo!nt committee on Federal Aid for the Sixty-secon.1 Congress; Henry W. Anderson of Richmond, Va., a well-known advv- cate of good roads and participant in many conventions; and Jean de Pu!- ligny, director of the French Mission of Engineers, and chie” engineer of ads and bridges of France. In the evening addresses arranged for will include those by 8S. C. Stet- son, chairman of the National Grange Executive Committee; Warden Thor - as J. Tynan of the Colorado State Penitentiary, who has made a notable success in the employment of convicts in roads building: and Charles Thaddeus Terry, chaWman of the A. A. A. Legislative Board.

‘third Infantry, ber, | maditian WOULD SEND REGIMENT | ACROSS CONTINENT The United States Government has been asked to take an interest in the big pathfinding tour which the Indi- ana Automobile Manufacturers’ As- sociation is promoting for the pro- posed transcontinental stone motor car road. Col. E, F. Glenn of the Twenty- and commandant at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indianap- olis, has called the attention of the War Department to the importance of the proposed highway, by request- ing permission to send a company «f infantry on the tour, the soldiers to ride in a fleet ‘of five motor trucks as a demonstration of the possibili- ties of this method of transportation for the army. Col. Glenn has compiled an inter- esting: table of figures on the esti- mated cost of the trip, to be submit- ted to the department, and it is prob- able that his plan of gending the com- pany will meet with approval, The 5@ automobiles which will start on the cross-country trip ~- on the evening of July 1, will be led by two American underslung cars which were made the first entries for the tour. 3 According to Col. Glenn’s estimate, the regiment could travel at the rate of about 60 miles a day. Each truck could carry 18 men with their bag- gage and equipment, but additional cars would have to be provided tuo earry the oil, gasoline, tires and extra parts. Col. Glenn contends that if all army posts were provided with trucks, every regiment would be able to move within one hour's notice, whereas at present there frequent!y is considerable delay in waiting for railroad cars. HENDERSON IS NO. 10 IN SPEEDWAY RACE Entry No. 10 for the third annual 500- mile international sweepstakes race on the Indianapolis Speedway, May X, is a Henderson car, which will be driven by William Knipper. Knipper, who is Hen- jlerson agent at Rochester, was former- ly a race driver, but retired te sell cars. The entry will be a four-cylinder car

to facilitate changes. Other drivers in the big race are Gil. Anderson in a Stutz, Henry Endicott in a Nyberg, Bob Burman in a Keeton, Don Herr in a §tutz, and Charlie Merz also ina Stutz. Other important entries are in prospect. There has been a rearrangement of the regular speedway trophies, and accord- ing te present plans the Remy Brassard and trophy, the Prest-O-Lite trophy and the Wheeler Schebler cup, instead of be- ing raced for at the one, two and three hundred mile posts of the 500-mile race, will be given to the winners of the first two, three and four hundred miles. &.. - WEARY WILLIE TESTIFIES A letter to Ralph Dork of the Missou- ri Motor Car Co. says that recently a large touring car was shipped from De- troit to Nashville, Tenn. Before the car got out of the Detroit yards, the seal was breken by a Weary Willie bound for a warmer clime, who at once made himself at home with palace car luxury. When the car was placed for unload- ing, the Nashville dealers found thet the cover had been removed from. the machine, and placed in the rear seat, plainly indicating that it had been used as bed covering. The cushions had been placed to suit the intruder’s conveni- ence and everything so arranged as to make for the greatest comfort in travel. A second look revealed a large piece of paper in a conspicuous place, bear- ing the following testimony regarding the riding qualities ef the automobile: “Dear Gents: I have had the pleas- ure of riding from Detroit to Nashville in an Abbott-Detroit car, and you can! refer any of your prospects to me for reference, and I can convince them thet! it ila the easiest riding car in the world, “A BOOSTER.”

SHOWS. TWO NEW CARS The Kardell Motor Co. is making a handsome showing, at !ts salesroons, 4152 Olive street, of two new and natty Styles of tor cars. One of these is the Little “Six™ which, fully equipped, Sells for $128. The other is the new Chevrolet ‘‘six’’ seen in St. Louis fer the first time. This car, built by the Republic Motor Co., is priced at $2100, fully equipped, with self-starter and electric lighting system. It has the left- hand drive, and a number of unique and important features.

NEW MOON SELLERS. Richard H. Peek and EB. H. Bube, both | experienced automebile salesmen, have | been added to the sales force of the Lewis Automobile Co. local representa- tives of the Moon car. J. J, Meade has just been made super- intendent of the motor-building depart- ment of the Moon factory. He comes from the Packard factory. The new Moon ‘39’ will be ready for show next week.

HAS BUT ONE HEADLIGHT The latest wrinkle in automobile equipment is the elimination of one of the two headlights. It is argued that two lights give no better illumination of the road than one, and one reduces the cost and the. troubles of the driver by half. The first car to be so equipped | is the Garford six, handled in St, Louis avd the Motors Corporation, 8212 Locuat Street. ~ Oldest Co-Operative Society Meets. MASON CITY, Io., March 1.—The Rockwell Farmers’ Co-Operative Sv-

clety held its thirtieth annual ses- sion today. This is the eldest co: Operative concern in the. country. During the year business aggregating | $605,152 was done at an operating ex- | pense of $6700. Five hundred an! twenty-five thousand bushels of || grain was handled, in addition to lum.. coal, clothing and otner com- STARTERS REDUCE GASOLINE COST A group of prominent Chicago automo- bile men were recently discussing the rising price of gasaline and methods to economize its consumption. Finally the question was put up-to Mr. A. L. Ell- wood, St. Louis branch manager of the Locomobile, and he said: ‘‘The best. way to meet this ‘situation is, first, to buy a car that will give you the maximum mileage per gallon, and second, to make sure that it is equipped with a reltable electric starter.”’ tere Mest cars are used a greater part of the time within city limits, where fre- quent steps are made. When gasoline was cheap and before starters of any kind came into use, most people let their engines run and used up gasoline when they stopped the car, because it saved the bother of cranking up. Starters. were first made popular by reason of their convenience, but the right kind of starters is an economy as well, and this is now of prime im- portance. There are several kinds of starters in use, but the king of alli start- ers is the electrfc, when it is properly installed, sbecause there are no “‘ifs’’ about it. With the kind of starter used by the Loecomobile, it is just as easy to start the motor as to stop it, and the driver naturally gets into the habit of stopping the engine when the car stops, even if for a few minutes. In the course of a day's driving about the city, these few minutes of engine running saved be- gin to count, and at»the end of a year the aggregate of gaseline thus saved will run into hundreds of gallons.

THE NEW AMERICAN SIX One of the newest and most dis- tirctive models to be introduced to the motoring public has just been an- nounced by the American Motors Co. of Indianapolis. It is the “American Underslung Six,’ Type 666, the fig- ures indicating that it is six passen- ger, 60 h. p. and six cylinder, While the motor ig one of the larg- est to be shown on any of the new high powered sixes, it ig entirely free from the many little fittings which so often complicate a large motor. The cylinders are cast en bloc together with the intake manifolas and water connections. This gives 2 very smooth casting and with the valve covers in place the motor pre- sents a view of simplicity difficult to reconcile with the old order of rods and levers distributed all over the motor. ? The car is handled in St. Louis by the General Motor Car Co., 3952 Olive ptreet. WILL SELL MOGUL TRUCK W. F. Becktel and EK. B. Thorough- man have taken the agency for St. [Suis and territory for the Mogul truck; built in Chicago. They will be lecated at 1227 North Vandeventer avenue, with sales- rooms, and offices will be at 718 Title Guaranty Building. The name Mogul Moter Trnitk Co. of St. Louis has been adopted. They sold a six-ton truck Fri- day to Ernest Hartman Jr., to be used for trucking and heavy draying.

7? bas [COLISEUM SHOW WILL BE OPEN SUNDAY At a meeting of the Show Committee of the Coliseum Automobile Show Sat- urday morning, it was decided te keep the show open Sunday. The doors will open Sunday merning at 11:30, and the handsome display of motor cars will remain in session until 10:30 p. m. The closing of the show will be marked by jubilant horn blewing and handshak- ing by the exhibitors, who express themselves as Well pleased with the re- sults of the week. While the displays at the show did not include most of the well-known cars, it did introduce to the publte interested in the motor car, a number of the newer lines—new to St. Louis—and the bene- fits from an advertising sense have been great, say representatives of the concerns exhibiting. The Sunday session of the show is a concession to a large number of people who have not found it possible to visit the Coliseum during the week. ‘ticinieaticililataiahias HIGH CARS RAISE DUST “In passing over a readway some cars will hardly raise enough dust to make it noticeable,’’ says Roy Anselm, agent in St. Louis for the Regal car, ‘‘while an- other make of car will raise a cloud of dust. The secret lies in the height above the road at which a car carries its lead. A high car sucks up the surface cover- ing of the roadbed and throws eut a cloud of dust behind the car, This type of car is not only hard on good roads, but more or less of a handicap to the good reads movement, “* car cf low suspension, though still high enough above the road to clear its irregularities, raises, in comparison, practically not dust. What dust is raised by front wheels is forced back to the road by the flat dust pan underneath the car. As a low car is less liable te sway at a high speed, its tendency to tear up the road when rounding curves or corners is. reduced. This explains why a car embodying the ‘‘undersilung”: construction is much easier on good roads than the car built the ordinary way.” iNNIANAPOLIS SHOW NEXT The Indianapolis automobile show, to be held at the Coliseum and the Coli- seum Annex, at the fair grounds, March 24-29, under the auspices of the Indian- apolis Automobile Trade Association, will be beautiful in every detail, ac- cording to the opinion of the members of the Committee on Decoration, who will spare no expense to make the show pretty in every aspect. The Committee on Decoration is composed of R. P. Henderson, Thomas Marshall, G. H. Westing and Frank Lairy. In the Coliseum will be housed al! automebiles. It was the _ intention originally, to place there the -acces- sories and the metorcycles, but the Executive Committee decided that the Coliseum should be given over exclu- sively to automobiles; that the Annex would give sufficient room to house not only motercycles and accessories, but also the commercial cars.

LINCOLN ONCE SAVED - ECKERT’S COMMISSION Told at Trial How President In- terfered When He Was About to Be Discharged. NEW YORK, March 1.—How Gen. Thomas T. Eckert, former head of the Western Union Telegraph Co., nearly lost. his commission during the Civil War was related at the trial of the Contest over his will, which his son, Jameés Clendenin Eckert, is preseing. The story was repeated by the Rev. James Veit, assistant pasior of the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes, as he said Eckert told it to him. “In 1862,’ he quoted Gen. Eckert as saying, “wherg I was an officer ,in charge of the telegraph bureau with the rank of Captain, Secretary of Stanton called me to his office. He told me that he had received advice that I was not attending to my duties and” that my dismissal had been written out, “While I was standing speechless be- fore him I felt-a hand on my shoulder and someone said: ‘I vouch for Capt. Ieeckert. I have had cccasion to go to his office several times and I always found him there attending to his duties.’ It was Abraham Lincoln. Stanton broke the silence. ‘I apologize to Maj. Eck-

ert,” he said.” HI War!

MONEY WORRIES POOR FARM INMATE TO DEATH Hut Searched Later, ~ Yields $1500; $300 in Dog Kennel and $500 in Stovepipe. SUSSEX, Wis., March 1.—Nearly $1500 in gold and paper. money..was found in the dilapidated shack of Carl Schultz, 83, who died Feb. 22 at the Waukesha County poor farm. Schultz was removed from his hut, which was largely filled’ with odds and ends, and taken to the poor farm on complaint of neighbors. He was ill and unable té care-for him- self. When officials arrived he said he was without. means, and refused to hire an attefi@ant. He was then taken in charge, but constant worry over his money’ resulted in his death. Schultz denied having money, but since his removal, a guard watched the shack because residents in this section were certain he was wealthy. Charles Malsch, the administrator, found money. hidden in ‘every con- ceivable place. One-tin pail. contain- ing more than $500 and currency was hidden. in the stove. pipe, and $300 was taken from a dog kennel. The man had no relatives in Amer- ica; but it was said a sister lives in Germany. :

After investigating the conduct of the State penitentiary at Florence, the committee recommended |. that prison stripes be resumed and that no convict be allowed outside the prison walls without a guard, or without the approval of the State Board of Pardons and Parole. The latter recommendation would remove from the Governor all the discretionary control under which he instituted the ‘honor system. Citizens of Florence testified before the committee that a woman prisoner wore tights in a street parade adver- tising a performance of the prison glee club. It was also testified that Louis Eytinge, a long-term convict, gave Miss Kate Bernard, an Oklahoma prison reformer, a buggy ride through the main streets and treated her t» ice cream soda in a _ confectionery shop, INFANTA MARIA CHRISTINA OF SPAIN ISA: DEFECTIVE At 14 Months Exhibits Impedi- ments in Speech and Bear- ing Like Brother.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 1.—The ‘Votes for Women” pageant here Monday is attracting as much attention as the inauguration on Tuesday, for. since “Gen.”’ Rosalie Jones and her army wf ‘thikers” arrived the capital has been filled with little else than talk of the unique parade which the women have planned. Suffragists and anti-suffragists from everywhere are thronging the hotels in anticipation of taking a part in or wit- nessing the parade, the like of which the world has never before seen. Color, slogans and allegory will be the features of the pageant, and of the three most attention has been given to color. The rainbow has given up all its tints for garbs of the marchers.

Deals with the of Shortage of FOR, OF COURSE, THERE’S GOING TO BE a shortage of Sixes. Noth- ing could be more certain—nothing is giving the trade more con- cern at this moment. Dealers are worried and prospective buyers are beginning to be. THIS AD. IS PUBLISHED March 2d in all principal newspapers in the United States. Thirteen days from now is March 16th—then comes the deluge, “"WARE THE IDES OF MARCH!” we say in the automobile busi- ness, for we have learned to regard the Roman Soothsayer's warning, though it was not originally intended for us. SEEMS AS IF EVERYBODY in the world wants his automobile de- livered in the six weeks between March 15 and May 1. That’s a condition that is at the same time welcomed and dreaded by makers whose product, as ours, enjoys a ready demand. WE WELCOME IT BECAUSE it means big business—and we drea3 it because we know it also means disappointment to many good customers—bitter disappointment to some. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN SO—it probably will continue to be so. Tardy buyers are bound to be disappointed. Yet among the tardy buyers are many good friends who have always depended upon this organization to furnish them automobiles of more advanced design, of a better quality and at a lower price than could be had elsewhere, TARDY BUYERS ARE NOT TO BLAME for betng tardy. Mostly they are too busy with other matters, or are unfamiliar with things automobile. Anyway, they are liable to believe there will be plenty of cars to go around. PERHAPS THERE WILL BE—BUT there never has been, and those best competent to judge know that the shortage of the kind of cars you want will be greater this year than ever before. GET THAT! THERE MAY BE plenty of cars. But there won’t be plenty of Sixes, and’ there will be still less of the kind of Sixes that will measure up to the standard of the man who knows— and we are assuming that you are @me of these. WE ARE NOT INTERESTED so much in the man who doesn’t know. We are not making cars to meet that demand. BUT WE ARE VITALLY INTERESTED in those who do know. They are the readiest buyers of cars that do measure up to their standards—and the best customers afterwards. THAT’S WHY WE ARE PUBLISHING THIS AD.—to warn those who know and who are going to insist on having a Six, that there is not only going to be a shortage of Sixes generally, but a dis- couraging shortage of Sixes of that kind. LET US REPEAT—This ad. is only for those who know what does and what does not constitute a successful Six, Those, in short, who know what they want—want what they want—and who will not accept a substitute. And we repeat we are assuming you are one of these. : NOW LET US GET DOWN to brass tacks. FIRST LET US SEE WHY there 1s a shortage of Sixes. Reason is simple—greater demand than possible supply. Why? Because tae Sie be came to realize the superiority of Sixes sooner than most makers. : OR, TO PUT IT ANOTHER WAY: Buyers learned the advantages of Sixes sooner than most makers thought they would. Makers mo all the time, but didn’t think the average buyer was aware, ra) WE PLEAD GUILTY to having precipitated the trouble. And here's how it happened: . In our advertisement announcing the sensa- tional Maxwell “50-6” (then the Flanders ‘50-6”") we said, “If ap Are Paying More Than $1200 for a Car, You Are Entitled to a Six.” AND WE TOLD YOU WHY. And you and all the rest of the auto- mobile buying world understood—evidently for a landslide fol- lowed immediately after. Buyers began to demand and to insist on Sixes in all cars from $1200 upward. And as always happens, dealers echoed the demand of buyers. NOW, YOU'LL RECALL WE DIDN'T say we had a Six at $1200: but we did announce the five-passenger Maxwell ‘40-6 at $1450 ‘at the same time we announced the seven-passenger Maxwell “50-6” at $2350. And we predicted that the man who knew would decide he would rather pay the difference and have a Six than have an obsolete “Four” at the lower price. WELL, EVENTS PROVED that we were right. And it didn’t take long either. In fact, it happened in a remarkable short space of time. Most makers were caught unawares, That’s why we termed it “an avalanche.” ; INCIDENTALLY, WE SUDDENLY BECAME very much disliked ia the trade. We had committed the unpardonable sin of telling the buyer something that other makers protested was “none of ae eee However, we will probably survive that. We're used to WHAT WE ARE UP AGAINST—and the only thing that really mat- ters to you or to us—is the fact that there aren’t enough Sixes to g° around. We Know it. Everyone in the trade knows it. And we are telling you. rf AND WHILE WE ARE TELLIN’, haps you didn’ t know. LISTEN—for there’s something per-

Sixes for 1913] THE IMMEDIATE RESULT of ovr sensational announcement—aside from the impression it made on prospective buyers—was to upset all carefully made plans of competitors. There were conferences, meetings of the “Ways and Means Committees,” and anxious dis- cussions between directors and engineers. The problem was, how to meet the new conditions—how to meet the insistent demand for Sixes. ‘ FOR YOU MUST KNOW that while all makers foresaw the conquest of Sixes in all cars of 40 horsepower or over, most of them agreed that, except in cars of the highest price (say, $4000 and over). buyers would be willing to accept “Fours” for yet another season. There's where they miscalculated, and the matter had suddenly assumed a very serious aspect. THE PROBLEM THAT CONFRONTED. THEM was how to produce Sixes to meet the insistent demand. And most of them went about it by the shortest and most obvious route, NOW GET THIS—IT’S VITAL. Demand always creates supply. The Six demand was no exception. It resulted in a supply of Sixes— but not the kind of Sixes you want if you know the difference between what constitutes a successful Six and the other kind. And we are assuming you do. MANY CARS ARE OFFERED under the name of Sixes—but most of them are only converted Fours. “WHAT {iS A CONVERTED FOUR?” you ask. And we are glad you ask, because we know the answer. A “converted Four’ is a Six that has been hurriedly: produced to meet an unforseen demand by the simple process of adding two to the Four the maker al- ready had,. THATS SIMPLE, ISN’T IT? It’s the obvious—in fact, the obviously obvious way to do it. BUT “IT SIMPLY CAN’T BE DID.” You can pro@uce a “Six,” but not a successful Six that way. There are engineering problems in a Six that do not arise in the designing or making of a Four. Space does not permit us to enter into this important matteh in detail here, much as we should like td do so. For it is 1 t —vitally important to the buyer. WE HAVE, HOWEVER, TREATED THIS matter exhaustively\in little booklet, which we will be glad to send you, the titl “ which is “Two Added to Four Do Not Make a Six. $4 IF YOU WANT TO KNOW’ about Sixes so as to be able to choose in- telligently, you'll get elsewhere. And it’s authentic. Without being tee highly technical, its contents @manated from the engineer who knows, perhaps, a little more about designing Sixes than any other fn this industry. He's the man who designed the Max- well “50-6.” BETWEEN THE LINES we'tell you wherein and why the Maxwell 50-6" is superior. But you are just as much interested ‘in learn- ing that as we are in telling you. Its perusal will be worth while —you'll be able to tq@l the average salésman more than he knows about Sixes, and once you've digested its contents you will able to tell, by simply lifting the h which is a “conve Four’ and which is a true as a Six.

Then their bodies were placed upright in automobiles and rushed to the prison. Just as the machines whirled around the corner of the prison the fake at- tempt at rescue was staged. Several shots were fired and then the dead *Hodies were dumped out into the prison yard. Word was then sent to the guards in front of the prison that Madero and Suarez had been shot in a fight with a rescuing party. The next day an official investigation was begun to carry out the plot and dis- pel all suspicion. The assassination in a room in the National Palace, the Madero’s here de- clare, accounts for the powder marks f.und on Francisco Madero’s face and the holes burned in his clothing by the flame of an exploding revolver. , Raen! and Emilio Madero Escape In- to Texas.

Plans are un-) KATE BARNARD |WELSHMEN EAT STRIKES OL ON LEEK AT PLANTERS CONVICT FARM! AND MAKE MERRY 300 Diners With Wives Cele- brate at Dinner National Customs. A One hundred and fifty Welshmen and their wives gathered at the Planters Ho- tle last night to eat ieek. And they ate it with a relish. It was the regular banquet of the St. David’s Benevolent and Choral Society of Granite City. Leek is both the national dish of Welshmen and the national embiem of Wales. This vegetable can bé made most palatable in 151 different dishes, according to Welsh connoisseurs. [+t was served as the principal ingredient of three courses of the menu last night, as follows: Leek in soup (bouillon). Leek in fish. Leek in cheese. Here is what Mr. Webster of dic- tionary notorlety says about leek: “Leek is a plant (genus allium) having brdadly linear sueculent leaves rising from a loose oblong cylindrical bulb. The flavor is stronger than that of an onion.” Like Onton, Only More So. W. J. Lynch, toastmaster of the feast, however, had a slightly differ- ent definition. He said that “‘per- fectly good leek is just like a green onion, only more so.” Phil Stremmel of Granite City was the principal speaker. He recited dramatically the historical incident which forever endeared leek to the hearts of the Welsh people. “Several centuries ago the Welsh and the English were about to engage in a terrific battle,” he said. “The Welsh commander knew the battle would end in @ hand- to-hand struggles and that the combatants would become so thor- oughly mixed that it would be impossi- ble to tell friend from foe unless the one bore some mark distinctive from the other. dier to wear a bunch of leek in the lapel of his coat, And the Welsh won the battle. This victory gave leek ever- lasting fame with the Welsh race. « “Leek is just the same to a Weshman as the shamrock is to an Irishman, the thistle to a Scotchman, or the rose to an Englishman.

Spectacles $1 up TWO STORES WITH ROLLING PIN Sets Fire to House, Escapes, Is Arrested as Loiterer and Confesses Deed. LEXINGTON, Ky., March 1.—Silas Williams, a 16-year-old negro employed on the farm of Lee Moffett, a well-to- do farmer near Nicholasville, in Wood- ford County, attacked the wife of his employer and beat her to insensibility with a rolling pin yesterday and killed her aunt, Mrs. Susan Black, in the same manner when she attempted to help Mrs. Moffett escape. He then set fire to the house and escaped through the woods. Williams was arrested as a loiterer here Friday night and afterward con- fessed to having committed the deed. Discovery of tne crime was made when a passerby saw smoke and went to the rescue, extinguishing the fine, which had not gained much headway. He then en- tered the house and found the two women. Mrs. Moffett later regained Cconscious- ness and stated that Williams came to the house on an errand. When _ she turned from him, the negro struck her on the head with a rolling pin, and when Mrs. Black came to the rescue he at- tacked her and beat her until she was unconscious. She died today from the effects of the beating. A mob of nearly a thousand men gath- ered about the house when the news of the crime spread and Williams would have been strung up immediately if he had. been caught in that vicinity last OF CANAL DISPUTE Ambassador Bryce’s ‘‘Observa- tions’”’ Insist’ Case for, De- cision Now Exists. WASHINGTON, March 1.-+Great Britain’s final words to the Taft ad- ministration on the Panama Canal tolls dispute, made public today, in- sisted that a case for settlement under the Hay-Pencefote treaty has arisen, but suggested in effect that there would not be time to discuss the subject further before the United States Government ehanged hands. Secretary of State Knox acknowl- edged receipt of this communication without committing the State Depart- ment to an answer, reserving to his successor the decision of the ques- , tion of whether it is proper to make such answer at all, or to await an- other communication from the British Government continuing , the argu- ment. The latest British note, “which was submitted to Secretary Knox yes- terday, instead of being a communi- cation from Sir Edward Grey, the Foreign Minister, was a set. of “ob- servations” by Ambassador. Bryce. The Ambassador explained his. rea- sons for submitting at this stage an objection to the contention in the last American note that Sir Edward Grey was arguing a hypothetical case and that there was no reason for his pro- test in advance of the actual collec- tion of tolls from British ships, while cate. more in accordance with the general arbitration treaty desired should precede rather than | low the doing of any acts, which c raise questions of actual damage suf- fered; sels begin to pass.thrdugh the great Wa- terways in whose construction all the world has been interested there should be left subsisting no cause of difference which could prevent any other nation from joining without reserve in the sat- isfaction the people of the United States will feel at the completion of a work of such grandeur and utility.”’ of the Titanic disaster, Karl H.

Grand it might result very seriously, as the heart must be kept perfectly free in order to perform its duties. American ships were allowed to pass free. The note follows: Feel Bound to Dissent. “His Majesty’s Government is unable before the administration leaves office to reply fully to the arguments con- tained in your dispatch of the lith ulti- mo to the United States Charge d’Af- faires at London, regarding the differ- ence of opinion that has arisen between cur two governments as to the inter- pretation of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, but they desire me in the meantime to offer the following observations with regard to the argument that no case has vet arisen calling for any submission to arbitration of the points in difference between His Majesty’s Government and that of the United States on the inter- pretation of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, because no actual injury has as yet re- sulted to any British interest, and all that has been done so @ar is to pass an act of Congress under which action held by His Majesty’s Government to be prejudicial to British interests might be taken. “From this view, His Maijesty’s Gov- ernment feel bound .to express their dissent. They conceive that interna- tional law or usage does not support the doctrine that the passing of a statute in contravention- of a treaty right af- fords no ground of complaint for the infraction of that right, and that the nation which holds that its treaty rights have been so infringed or brought into question by a denial that thev exist, must, before protesting and seeking the means of determining the point at is- sue, wait until some further action vio- lating those rights in a concrete instance has. been taken, which in the present instance would, according to vour argu- ment, Seem to mean until further tolls have been actually levied upon British vessels from which vessels owned by citizens of the United States have been exempted.

If the stomach is overworked, its ~ muscles become tired anc gradually grow weaker and weaker, until they are unable to take care of the food properly. The glands fail to provide the juices necessary to digest the food. Gases form and cause all sorts of pain, misery and wretchedness, as well as extreme danger: to the heart. . It is then that the stomach calls for help. Ordinary medicinés are impossible. They not only fail to help the stomach, but injure the en- tire system. Medical men have stud- ied the stomach and have discovered that the digestive juices consist largely of pepsin, hydrochloric acid and nitrogenous ferments. What, then, would be. more natural than to supply these properties artificially when the stomach is unable to pro- duce them? A That is the object of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets. These powerful lit- tle agents relieve the stemach of its burden, thereby giving it an oppor- tunity to regain its normal strength. They tone up, strengthen anq revital- ize the secretory glands, mucous membranes, absorbing glands and muscular. walls. They restore to the stomach its lost powers of digestion so that it can again do its work with- out assistance. They contain, in a concentrated form, every’ element necessary to digest all sorts of. food. whether acid or -alkaline. | If you experience an oppressive feeling just. inside the lower end of your breast bone and extending up- ward towards the. heart, do not hesitate an’ instant. Get Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets from the nearest druggist at once and take one. Ina few minutes the pain will leave you and you will feel better. Take a tablet after each meal for several days and your st6émach will oncé more perform its duties.

In their view, the act of Con- gress, when it declared that no toi’s should be levied’ on ships engaged in ‘he coasting trade of the United States and when, in further directing the President to fix those tolls within certain limits. it distinguished between vessels of the citizens of the United States and otticr was in itself and apart from any action which may be taken uncer it, inconsistent with the provisions with the Hay-Pauncefote treaty for equaiity of treatment between the vesses] .f all nations. The exemption referred to appears to His Majesty's Government to conflict with the express words of rule 1 of article 3 of the Havy-Pauner- fote treatv and the act gave the Presi- dent no power to modify or discontinue the exemption. “In their opinion fhe mere conferri:: by Congress of power to fix lower tolls on United States ships than on British ships amounts to a denial of the rich of British shipping to equality of treat- ment and is therefore inconsistent with the treaty irrespective of the particular way in which such power has been so far actually exercised. ° ‘In stating thus briefly their view cf the compatibility of the act of Congress with their trecty rights, His Majestj.'ss Government held that the difference which exists between the two govern- ments is clearly one which falls within the meanjmg of article 1 of the arobi- tration treaty of 1908. “As respects the suggestion contained in the last paragraph but one of your note. under reply, His Majesty's Govern. | ment conceive that Article 1 of the treaty of 1908 so clearly meets the case that has now arisen that it is sufficient tu put its provisions in force in what- ever manner the two governments may find the most convenient. It is un- necessary to repeat that a reference to arbitration would be rendered superflu- ous if steps were taken by the United States Government to remove the objec- tion entertained by His Majesty's Gov- ernment to. the act. “His Maiesty’s Government have not desired me to’ argue in this note that ———— the view they take of the main issue— the proper interpretation of the Hay- Pauncefote treaty—is the correct view, but only that.a case for the determina- tion of that issue has already arisen and’ Myf o At ~~ ~ , - ~ — enh ah nee sil for men and young men; we’re sweeping them out SS . is ee ry ere Cae Pianos An opportunity hke we offer you has never befere been known in the history of Piano selling.

The application for the writ was made to Justice Guy by Lawyer“Doctor Charles Kennedy, who at the instigation of Alfred Henry Lewis, a magazine writer, visited Thaw in his~-cell in the asylum for the criminal insane at Mat- teawan some weeks ago. Dr. Kennedy, who appears as the latest counsel for Thaw, has been a practicing attorney for one month only, He is better known as a physician. The appliction for the writ is based upon an affidavit by Thaw himsélf that he is sane now and therefore should be discharged from custody. Dr. Kennedy “tipon information and belief’ asserts that his client should be given his lib- erty *’forthwith,”’ declaring Thaw has been sane for a long timé. Dr. Kennedy says that in a few davs he expects to be able to name associate rcounsel to aid him ip his fight to gain Thaw’'s release. First Met Reecntly. The first time Dr. Kennedy met Thaw was one Sunday several weeks ago, When he and Dr. William J. O'Sullivan, now an assistant corpor- ation counsel, but better known as a medico-legal expert, called at Mat- teawan and presented to Dr. Russell, jthen the-head of that institution, a letter signed by Alfred Henry Lewis, asking Dr. Russell to allow the two physicians to interview Thaw. Dr. Russell saw no objection and fhe in- troduction took place. Drs. Kennedy and o’sWlivan talked with Thaw for several hours. At the conclusion they reported to Lewis that in their opinion Thaw was sane and had been sane for a long time. Then followed the announcement in the New York World that an ef- fort was being made to free Thaw by insinuating that if Thaw was freed by Dr. Russell Gov. Sulzer would be very much pleased. The publication of this resulted in the present inquiry by the Sulzer Com- mission. which has thus far brought about the resignation of Dr. Russell and revealed shocking allegations of attempted bribery and the soliciting of a bribe. Will Again Retain Jerome. The Attorney-General will have to be represented and it is expected that he will again retain William Travers Jer- ome to look after the State’s inter- ests. Jerome appeared for the Attorney- yeneral at the time Thaw seught to gain his freedom last summer before Justice Keogh at White Plains. Already Thaw’s trial for murder and his at- tempts to be released from the asylum have cost the State fully $500,000. It is said to have cost his family two or ‘hree times as much. Medical experts will be called on either side. Just who Thaw’s experts day and arraigned before Justice Gleger- |} —aoaouaoalll : , : 1 will be is not stated, but both Dr. Ken- nedy and Dr. O'Sullivan will take the witness stand and tell of their examina- tion of Thaw at Matteawan a few weeks ago, When they declare they found Thaw perfectly sane. Dr, Kennedy said today that the brib- ery exposures ha@® not hurt Thaw in the least, that, on the contrary, he be- lieved they had helped Thaw, in that they had called attention to the fact that at least two physicians who had seen him recently believed him to be sane. “Had Thaw ever heard about you as a lawyer before you were introduced to him by Alfred Henry Lewis?” Dr. Ken- nedy was asked. “I cannot answer that question,” was the reply. “But the first time I saw him to speak to him in connection with this case was when I went to Matteawan with Dr. O'Sullivan.” it: Lewis Is to Testify. : Chere were few developments today in the alleged attempt to bribe Dr. Russell to release Thaw. The Inquiry Board will sit again Monday, when Alfred Henry Lewis is expected to testify. His connection with Thaw grows more interesting. When first. encountered with William F. Clark on his visits to Thaw, Lewis said he was preparing some magazine articles on noted crim- inal cases and planned to write up Thaw’'s case. He admitted sending Dr. Kkepnedy, who today appeared as 4 lawyer to examine Thaw, but said this was in the interest of his proposed mag- azine articles. Then came the scandal regarding Clark's alleged exposure as an employee of the State, of Lawyer Anhut’s attempt to bribe Dr. Russell to release Thaw, followed by Russell's resignation. All this was given a strong- er tinge by the testimony of Horace A. Hoffman, a private detective who has been on Harry Thaw’s staff for a year or more. He swore to having paid money to both Lewis and Clark on be- half of Thaw. Clark, Hoffman’ swore, was commis- sioned to go to Utica early in January when’the State bar association, then in Session, contemplated passing a resolu- tion indorsing a bill which if enacted would prevent Thaw from bringing habeas corpus proceedings more than once a year. Clark, Hoffman swore, was to bring about the publication of letters and other material calculated to Gissuade the bar association further- ing any plan inimical to Thaw’s inter- ests. Shortly after Clark had performed this service, Alfred Henry Lewis, Hoffman testified, asked him one day for a check for $100 ‘“‘to pay Mr. Clark for his ex- penses.’’ “I gave a check,” said Hoff- mani. How much money Alfred Henry Lewis received from the Thaws through him Hoffman would not say. He admitted that Lewis got three checks and some cash, but when pinned ‘down remarked that the entire amount was not what he would large.”’ “6000 SNAP SHOTS.

— HERE'S THE LONDON RECIPE FOR MEN'S CASTER COSTUMES

‘Shocking’! Socks Give Way to Softer Tones and Brown Pre- dominates in Suits. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World, LONDON, (March 1.+-Any American youth who wishes to attire himself in the strictly proper London garb for the Eastern parade may do so by selecting his costume within the limits of the following description taken from “Men's Wear,” which is the court of last ap- peal in masculine styles for London dandies: TIES will be of decidedly neat pat- terns, plain colors and quiet. stripes in silk and poplin, and more sober effects in crepe being the best. The colors are blue, black, gold and hrown. SHIRTS will show the following colors: Black and white, blue and white, and brown and white. Tne patterns are stripes, the neater the better. What is expected to be the vogue is a very nar- row blue stripe on a white ground. SOCKS.—The startling “shockers” in socks are quite dead. Patterns are quite neat, the colors being all black, and black with white, brown. or gray clocks, COLLARS.—There ‘is perhaps more feeling for the the square wing of larger area than heretofore, and for sports wear the modernized polo will be en- ergetically pushéd.' . FANCY VESTS will not be an ex- traordinarily strong line. They will mostly show neat striped patterns, with white grounds, or else will be entirely of a quiet shade of gray or brown. SUITINGS.—Brown and gray prom- ise to be the predominant colors in men’s suitings. The most noticeable move is the extended employment of the outside breast pocket in the coat. The @resent peg-top style in trousers will prevail again, and on mogst lounge suits the trouser ends will be permanently turned up. HEADWEAR.—Soft felts and real and imitation velour hats will be seen in vast numbers. A “bowler” with medium- sized brim and’ crown and a fair curl to the brim is the right shape. GOOD READING IN | FEBRUARY “SERVICE” Some of the hugegets of thrift con- tained in the February issue of Service are these: “A dollar is a good tool or a good toy, depending on who has it. “Anybody can make 20 nickels out of a dollar, but the man who makes 21 out of‘ them is the power that moves the world. “Shylock only wanted one pound of flesh. The man in debt’ to a modern loan shark loses more weight than that every interest date.”’

Service is published for present and possible customers of the. Mississippi Valley Trust Co. G. Prather Knapp is editor. A timely article, ‘Sell It—Quick,”’ containing advice to real estate owners, is a feature of the February number, and other articles are “Six Per Cent Se- curity,’’ ‘“‘Experiences of an Execwtor,’’ and “A Picture of a Policy.”’ A picture of Murray Carleton, @ member of the company’s Exécutive Committee, is one of the illustrations.

Let 1913 also : everyone, for the time is critical than in 1813." covered by an unprecedented general levy on property. All German sub- jects are to be called on to contribute a lump sum in proportion to their possessions. The reigning houses, according to an unofficial report, are to be asked | to sacrifice their present freedom from taxation, but persons possess- ing less than $7500 or $12,500 (ac- cording to the decision of* Parlia- ment) are to be exempt from th>2 levy. An estimate of $250,000,000 as the cost of the change is generally ac- cepted. The proposal of a general levy is regarded aS making the German army increase quite as much a na- ticnal sacrifice as is the French ex: tension of active service in the army from two to three years. Other taxation is contemplated to cever the regular annual charges duc | to the increase of the forces. Emperor William is reported as fa- yoring both the general levy and the taxation of the princes. ee MEN

~~ Shares of stock held as security by the Sa St. Louis Union Trust Co. for a loan to Nelson C, Chapman and his wife, Mary B. Chapman, was filed by the Chapmans yesterday in the United States District Court. They alleged that Thomas C. Wright, president of the company and vice-presi- dent of the Third National Bank, has prevented the directors of the building company from declaring dividends on the Stock, and that the earnings, converted into surplus, now amount to $287,000. If the surplus had been divided, ac- cording to the plaintiffs, Chapman would have received more than $20,000 and his wife more than $40,000.

Amer Amer Amer! The cotton market has shown strength during the week eid prices are con- siderably advanced from a week ago. There is a better feeling in the spot mar- kets and an opinion that the decline has gone far enough is fast gaining ground. Statistically the market has been, anid is in a very strong position, but the falling off in the spot demand shook the confidence of the trade genvrally and made bears out of a great many dealers. This brought about heavy sellinz gen- erally and it is likely that there now exists in the contract markets a heavy Short interest, speculative as well as the hedge. variety.

Chicago “In Europe there has existed, both in industry and on the Stock Exchange, a ge enh prolonged through a se- tn years. : h the United States the forw d yement both on the stock market and in neral trade has, as a whole, been ual, deliberate, of recent origin, and based upon visibly sound foundations. “But on both Continents the absorp- tion of capital in such quarters has been extensive, and in Europe this has occurred in the face of an international collision, and of political misgivings which caused a very unusual withdrawal of personal resources from investment by the rich and hoarding of actual cash by people of small means. Very high mondéy rates and very weak bank posi- va have, as a necessary result, pre- ome ed throughout Europe. ' "The relations of the great markets ofthe world being what they are, the 80 dest market of the moment was re- sO to for relief, and New York has sent abroad since the opening of the year more gold than has ever before been exported in the corresponding weeks of any year. “The resultant situation here was per- fectly simple. A man of means, with his rsonal finances in an entirely sound condition, is appealed to by a business associate who is in serious em- barrassment. He advances the neces- sary funds, knowing that he will get them back in time: but to do so, he must deplete his private bank account and realize on some of his private in- ments. “T> the uninformed observer, he is in trouble, and that is prectanty the. conclusion which a good many , ple have .appeared to draw. regar “ol American market, which has been oo ag its own resources into just that to relieve the threatenéd embar- ra sments of Europe.

Lacan report iself, while containing some pro- posals of undoubted merit, also contains some extremely ridiculous suggestions for legislation, will no doubt have its influence on the fate of the document s it stands. wen a La Follette or a Lindbergh would have shrunk from proposing to the House the penalty of five years ina Federal prison for a citizen who mails a letter mentioning prices on a Stock Exchange which has not taken heed of a State law for incorporation. “Tf the general problem is to be taken up again with serious purpose, it will possibly be placed in the hands of a statesmanlike committee. “Prices closed the week. with a bear- ish drift, with the final level somewh at below the finals of = week.’ LONDON MARKET WAITS" ON PEACE IN BALKANS LONDON, March 1.—The sudden rise of the last few days on your Stock Exchange was regarded here as the en- tirely natural recovery of an “oversold” market. For two reasons, however, it had not been expected that the present improvement would go very far. One is, that even an immediate ac- ceptance of Turkey's reported suit for peace on the basis of Adrianople’s sur- render, would leave our own money markets absorbed fer some months in the problem of the large impending se- curity issues. The other is that your markets, in our judgment, will inevitably be affected, during the immediate fu- ture, by uncertainties of the tariff dis- cussion and of domestic politics in gen- eral. The Political Outlook. The feeling regarding Mr. Wilson, in our best-informed financial circles, is that he is a capable and clever states- man; but that the question of real doubt is whether the Democratic majority in Congress, after its prolonged absence from control over national affairs,’ may not be inclined to ride the high horse rather recklessly. If this were to hap- pen, and if financial depression were caused by it. your public, it is thought, might probably be at first inclined to blame the financiers. Briefly expressed, we believe that your people are for the moment disposed to see only the bad side of the banking alliances and combinations, and to‘ over- look the enormous national prosperity and high wages which have accompa- nied them. Ultimately. there will no doubt be a satisfactory adjustment of the disputed questions. but the interva! of uncertainty is likely to be trouble- sole. ‘The Ralliways’ Position. We hear constantly from your railway circles, for instance, of the iInnumer- able legislative measures, and of the consequent embarrassment to invest- ment capital, both in the railways and in your other industries. Argentina’s requisitions on the gold supply are slackening moderately, but your market is expected to send “more gold next Saturday and later.

SUGGESTED TERMINUS Northeast Corner of Fourth and Olive Mentioned as Likely Place for Main En- trance of Terminal Far- thest North; Idea to Boom City. By Berry Moore. Plans for downtown passenger sta- tions which, it is believed, would not only solve the transportation problem in St. Louis, but which would awaken the city, were outlined yesterday by Howard Gambrill, a prominent mem- ber of the St. Louis Real Estate Ex- change. The establishment of two stations on Fourth street, between Washington and Chouteau avenues, contem- plated in Gambrill’s plans, which he will urge the St. Louis Real Estate Ex- change to advocate. ‘ The blocks between Fourth street and the levee and Olive and Locust streets, and the Southern Hotel block facing Fourth, Broadway and Elm street, linked with the blocks lying to its east, he believes would be the most logical and available locations for the proposed downtown railway stations. Trains could be diverted from the Eads Bridge and the elevated railways along the Mississippi River to the north ‘sta- tion, which could be rendered accessible by excavation and filling, or by engi- neering schemes. With the northeast corner of Fourth and Olive streets as the main entrance, a station in this part of the city, Gam- brell believes, would be a big business builder. Southern Hotel One Site. are c | Likewise, it is believed the Southern Hotel block could be occupied for sta- tion purposes. Coupled with the blocks lying en its east, as the plan purposes, the Southern “Hotel or south siatton, would have ample yards, and ‘all the fa- ‘@ilities of the clevated and surface tracks of the river front. As both the surface and’ elevated tracks are owned by the Terminal Rail- way Association, the Eads, the Munici- pal Free Bridge and the Merchantg’ Bridge would be at the disposal of the proposed downtown passenger stations. ’ Asa matter of fact the ‘Terminal Railway Association holds either by fee or lease most of thé real estate along Main street and on the Levee, between the Eads .Bridge and the Municipal Free Bridge, giving to it absolute control of the terminal sit- uation. As @ measure to stelleve the con- gestion at Union Station Gambrill eontends that the downtown station should be dedicated to the use of the trains of the: Eastern railways, Union Siation being restricted to those of the Western railways. ». The intercourse between the pro- |’ sed downtown stations and Union 5 ® sone incidental to the arrange- _ment, would give transients a glimpse of St. Louis and an opportu- nity to spena jh the city money, which otherwise might be spent in ‘Kansas City or in Denver, or in some other burgs of their ilk. ‘Near ‘to City’s Heart. ‘ Passengers landing at the north gide station ‘would be within a step of the Olive, Broadway or Fourth _ gtreet car Aine, or the Washington @venue and Third street loop, the downtown termini of two-thirds of the lines of the United Railways _ system. - Transients, Gambrill declares, are - the life Of Chicago, the absence of hem in St. Louis costing the city ppimses of dollars annually. ~ Gambrill is no more interested in jis than any other part of the city, is su&gestions being merely hints} ee pom the Terminal Railway Associa- tion or the Eastern railways. © The prediction is ventured that the aa pv that would be forthcoming @ areas of the proposed down- Leese ee. 285,395 “ see eeees 140,192 +a’ i 69,918

march from the were not ef- him Evans proved to be only. 13 days’ spot where Capt. Scott lost his life, fective expeditions sent to meet and succor ov the return trip? Finally, is there a mystery behind Capt. Scott’s harsh account of the death of Petty Officer Edgar Evans, for whom he has no words of pity, al- though bestowing the most generous praise upon the others who accompanied him on the dash to the South Pole? To consider the problem of fuel shortage whicn Capt. Scott found inexplicable, it is necessary to review the commander’s plans for reaching the pole. At Cape Evans, which is in McMurdo Sound on the northern edge of the Antarctic Continent, the Terra Nova, Capt. Scott's ship, disembarked enough provisions, fuel and clothing in January, 1911, to furnish out the entire party of 60 men un- til January, 1914. Here was founded the main base of supplies. In November of 1911 the explorer, under unfa- vorable auspices, determined to begin his trip to the bottom of the earth. November is the last month of the Antarctic spring, and Capt. Scott, he states, intended to start earlier, but was delayed because his transport of Siberian ponies was swal- lowed up by melting ice fields in the previous January, when he made an unsuccessful attempt to penetrate into the polar wilds. He took 16 men besides himself, and divided them into parties of four each. The first three parties were to found stations containing food and fuel at successive intervals, and then race back t. Cape Evans. The other four, led by Capt. Scott, were to proceed from the third station to the pole. Cape Evans is about 920 miles north of the South Pole. It is probable that the three depots were at an approximately equal distance, 230 miles, apart. So that, on the return trip, Capt. Scott was justi- fied in believing that at intervals of 230 miles he would find three depots stockeca with fuel and food. He had passed two of the stations, and was within J1 miles of the third and final one, called One-Ton depot, when fate overtook him. ad shortage of fuel in our depots, for which I cannut account,” were his words. Therefore at both sta- tions which he reached he met the crushing dis- appointment of finding that a quantity of.the fuel with which he had expected to replenish his heat- ing apparatus was mysteriously lacking. A simi- lar shortage, it appears from his narrative, was found in the food supplies. In the far polar reaches, the most solitary re- gions of the globe, where no men inhabit, and no wild beasts roam, caches have been found intact years after they were founded, so that the disap- pearance of Capt. Scott’s supplies savors almost cf the uncanny. What agency was alive in that des- olate and congealed tract to which the pillage of his depots, if such it was, could be attributed? Two explanations nave been offered which, it seems, must be dismissed at once. The first is that the fuel evaporated. But dispatches from London state that the fuel used during the expe- dition was liquid paraffin, which does not become gaseous at polar temperatures. The second is that Capt/ Scott was in error as to the quantity of paraffin stored at the depots. But other fa- nous explorers praise him as a skillful commander, watchful of details, who could not have committed a blunder in this matter of life and death. Still ancther suggestion ir based upon an inci- dent related by Roald Amundsen as occurring during his successful trek to the South Pole. Three of his dogs deserted and traveled back along the trail for more than 100 miles to a sup- ply station, which they looted, eating even the leather straps about the cases of pemmican. ' There is no doubt that such famished beasts would eagerly devour fuel oi] if they could reach it. But Capt. Scott’s paraffin was stored in her- metically sealed cans which a dog would find it impossible to break open. So that the problem seems to resolve itself into one of human agency. It happens that during the Antarctic summer of 1911-12, which corresponds with winter in the northern hemisphere, there were four expeditions in the south polar region besides the British. Capt. Amundsen reached the South Pole. on Dec. 14, 1911, one month and four days before Capt. Scott’s arrival. There were also a Japanese expedition, com- manded by Lieut. Shirase; an Australian explor- ing party, headed by Dr. Douglas Mawson, and a German expedition in commarc of Lieut. Filch- ner., No word has been received from these three parties since they varnished within the Antarctic Circle. ;' When Capt. Scott was founding his supply sta- tions, Amundsen was already returning north- ward, and when the Briton reached the pole his victorious Norwegian rival was a morth’s jour- ney, or 600 miles, away to the north, or only 120 miles from his own base of supplies. Nearly a month before Capt. Scott’s death Amundsen an- nounced his triumph to the world at Hobart, Tasmania. Amundsen’s base of supplies was at Whale Bav, 500 miles west of Cape Evans. So that his route diverged at a wide angle, an angle of almost 66 degrees, from the trail followec by the English party. No evidence has appeared to indicate that either the Japanese, German or Australian expedition was in the vicinity of Capt. Scott’s route. Had either party availed itself of the British stores, it should long ago have reached the coast and re- t’rned to civilization. Whether the Japanese, ‘at least, went as far south as the first British depot i: questionable. They were so ill-equipped that before they left Tokio they were publicly advised to commit hari-kKari as the only honorable Way «f paying their debt to thos? who had = gsubscribed money for the expedition. The question, then, appears to narrow itself to Scott’s own men, the members of the parties which established his depots. Those who founded One-Ton depot need not be considered, for commander aid not reach that station. Is it possibie tha* the four mea v ho bade Capt. Scott and nis companions farewell at the third depot, the nearest to the pole, were driven back t the station by a blizzard, and there were com- pelled to Warm and feed thc mselves with the sup- plies left for their commander? And on starting north again did they once more find themselves destitute at the second depot, and a se ond time appropria*e the provisions and ~1el on which their chief's life depended? That these men were in want of fuel is shown b= the sta emen* of Lieut. E. R. G. R. Evans, who the * SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MARCH 2, 1913. “Capt. Scoi.s death.

succeeded to the command of the expedition after “Of the parties which. re- turned after supporting the polar party,” he is quoted as asserting at Christchurch, New Zea- land, “hardly one reached the base at Cape Evans with more than a day’s fuel in hand.” But surely, if the meu had made themselves free with Capt. Scott’s stores, he would have found traces of their presence, and would not have de- scribed the fuel shortage as vnaccountable. This is saying nothing of the fact thate these were picked men from the British army and navy, chos- en particularly by Capt Scott for their training in discipline and loyalty,:and relied upon to de- vote their lfves to the success of the expeditiva, which depended upon Capt. Scott’s safe return from the pole, as freely as if in battle. Still another question is raised by Lieut. Evaus’ disclosures. According to him, the Scott party cetried with them enough paraffin to last a month longer than it was calculated it would take them to journey from the last depot to the pole and back to Cape Evans. “They should have been independent of the fuel supplies in the depots,” said Lieut. Evans. It was planned that Capt. Scott would reach Cape Evans on the return trip not later than March 10, 1912. Less than a month’s march, un- der favorable circumstances, from the base of supplies, the party was halted by a blizzard, on March 20. So that Capt. Scott was only a littte more than a month behind his schedule, notwith- standing the tered. This delay would account for the exhaustion of little more than the oil borne by the party, but not for the depletion of that stored in the caches. Of course, Capt. Scott enccuntered weather bitter- ly wintry at the beginning of the Antarctic au- tumn, and was compelled to burn more fuel than would have been needed under normal conditions, A plausible suggestion is devived from Amund- sen’s statement that he was informed Capt. Scott sent back the last dogs at the third depot, and proceeded to the pole on foot, drawing his sledges by human -traction. Amundsen expressed bew!!- derment as to the commander's reason for this action, if it occurred. It meant for him and bis comrades a foot journey of more than 1000 miles, unless it had been arranged for dogs and pontus t>2 meet him at the Great Barrier on his return. If the trip was made afoot, it is probable that Capt. Scott, burdened by two sick men who conid scarcely walk, to say nothing of dragging a sledge, was compelled to abandon part of his pro- visions, including fuel, especially as he expected t. find plentiful supplies of oil at the depots. The mystery of the fuel shortage is the more confused by statements made at Christchurch by Lieut. Evans and Lieut. H. H. L. Pennell, com- mander of the Terra Nova. “I think you had bet- ter not touch on the fuel shortage in a communi- cation to a newspaper,” said Lieut. Evans. to a correspondent. Astonishment is being expressed in London over the abandonment of the three bodies found netr One-Ton depot. It is said that even a slight con- sideration for the relatives of Capt. Scott and of his companions in death, Dr. BE. A. Wilson and Lieut. H. E. Bowers, should have caused the re-

terrible difficulties he had encoun- ,

Diayram showing Capt. Scott's relay depota, in the second and third of which he found an unaccountable shortage of fuel. He was 11 miles from the third station, or only 13 day’s march from the main base of supplies, when his party was engulfed by a blizzard. lief party to recover the hodies at any — According to Surgeon Atkinson, leader of the ty the bodies could have been brought back to Cape Evans without difficulty. Atkinson explained that it was sentiment, sim- ilar to that expressed in the poem on “The Burial of Sir John Moore.” which prompted him to leave the bodies where they had fallen. It was becom- ing, he felt, that the graves of the victims should be the wide Antarctic space in which they fell, that the polar sky should be their mausoleum, aad that Antarctic blizzards should weave their shrouds. . Thirdly, it is being asked why Capt. Scott was not succored by supporting expeditions sent south from Cape Evans when the calculated date of his arrival had passed? It is a melancholy fact that one such party was at One-Ton depot on March 10, only 10 days before the commander’s arrival near there. This party remained seven days, be- ginning March 3, and returned north again before the coming of the blizzard which engulfed the po- lar party. Polar explorers agree that there is no blissard which should prove fatal to men in good health, sheltered in double tents, if they have fuel and food. No sign of scurvy was found by Surgeon Atkinson. Capt. Scott attributed his defeat spe- cifically to want of fuel and provisions. Why, then, did the relief party return north when Capt. Scott and his surviving companions were reeling on towards them only 80 miles away? Why did Atkinson not push on south with the supplies which would have saved the polar par- ty? ‘There was an abundance of provisions at Cape Evans, enough to maintain the entire party uotil 1914. Public accusations of inefficiency, if not of dis- loyalty, have been made against the relief party in London dispatches, although Capt. Scott's mother has declared her belief that everything possible was done for the rescue of her son. Dr. Atkinson has said that he was compelled to re-f treat because of lack of food for his men and dogs. 3 7 One defense suggested is that, as Capt. Scott took only 30 dogs for the entire expedition, and as a number of them were lost in the futile excursion of March, 1911, there were not enough dogs, after the loss of the ponies, to transpert sufficient pro- visions. Probably everyone who has read Capt. Scott's cold and unsympathetic account of the death of Petty Officer Evans in February; 1912, has asked himself the question: “What did Evans do?” Ti tone seems almost one of censure, when compared with the glowing tribute paid to Capt. li E. G. Oates. .. Was Evans guilty of some act of selfishness or insubordination which is hidden behind the reti-# cence of this epitaph written by his commander? Could the tragedy. in part, be attributed not only to the petty officer’s misfortune, but also to faults or blunders for which he was responsible? ..< It is reported that Lieut. Evans has sealed pach - pers left by Capt. Scott, Lieut. Bowers and Ong Wilson, which are to be delivered unopened tof their relatives. Perhaps these contain secret in-1 formation which, if one day made public, witli solve the mysteries which still envelope the and most dramatic of polar catastrophies,

'Daughter’s Devotion to Husband Ill With Consumption Leads Rich Father to Offer Large Reward for Cure of Tuberculosis, and Iwo Scientists, One of St. Louis and Other of Berlin, Enter Competition Under Strict Conditions With Hope of Redeem- ing Mankind From White Plague

WOMAN’S love for her husband, bringing the romance of wifely devo- tion into strange alliance with germ cultures, se- rums and animal labora- tories, is the source of an approaching contest between two . bacteri- ologists, the one a S&t. resident of Berlin, Ger- many, in which no less a problem is at issue than the redemption of mankind from tuberculosis, the most universal and deadly of diseases. Mrs. Rex Lee Paris is the danghter of Charles B. Finlay, president of the Aetna National Bank of New York. Young, beautiful, wealthy and wed- ded to the man of her choice, she saw these su- preme jewels of fortune turn to ashes, when her husband was stricken down by the white plague. She accompanied him to a hospital at Saranac Lake and consecrated all her waking hours to his bedside. Everything that money, devotion and science could do was lavishly expended. But She suffered the desperation of watching the certain progress of the malady’s siege, the grad- ual withering away of her husband's health. Just as the shadow of impending tragedy wus becoming hopelessly dark over the young wife's |head, there came from Berlin the buoyant and confident announcement of Dr. Friedrich Frauz Friedmann that he had perfected a cure for tu- berculosis in all its forms, whether of the lunczs, the bones or the skin; that he had confirmed the discovery by experiments in more than 1000 enses; and that, in order to test the efficacy of his preparation for the purpose of conferring uni- |} versal immunity against tuberculosis, he had jn- jected it into the bodies of 335 children, from. 1 hour to 3 years old. Dr. Friedmann’s language, as reported to the Berliner Klinische Wochenschrift for Nov. 18. 1912, was unequivocal and emphatic, Addressing ‘the Berlin Medical Society, he said, in transla- tion: . : “Under the influence of one single injection we have seen tuberculous infections of the bones and joints, though of many years’ standing, cleanse themselves and close; we have seen scrofulous epidermis cover itself with young, healthy. skin: great, hard tumors of the glands notably dimin- ‘teh; tuberculous abscesses slough away and heal; chronic scrofulous eczema definitely cures: and last, but not least, sufferers from pulmonary tuberculosis lose their general malaise and the physical symptoms of disease.’’ This announcement, widely heralded in the ‘continental and American press, came to the no-

No expenditure would be excessive, he felt, if it resulted in bringing to a happy close his caugh- ter’s mournful! vigil beside her sick husband. On the other hand, he knew that many celebrated “cures” of consumption, notably the tuberculin of the great Koch, had sadly failed to justify their inventors’ anticipations So he offered to pay $1,000,000 for a positive cure of tuberculosis, but stipulated that the cure must be established by rigid tests upon a num- this country. vr. *riedmann at once announced that he would sail for the United States, and proclaimed his confidence that his preparation would triumph over the con- ditions of the offer.

Dr. Friedrich Franz Friedmann. The St. Louis experimenter was Dr. George M. heath, a graduate of the University of Michigan and formerly assistant professor of pharmaceut- ical chemistry in that institution. He is not a practicing physician, although he holds, he says, an honorary degree of doctor of medicine from his alma mater. Through several St. Louis physicians, he re- lates, he’ experimented with his remedy upon 40 patients, afflicted variously with tuberculosis of the lungs, the throat and the bones. Two cf the patients, who were in the third stage of consumption, died. But of the others, he affirnis, 6) per cent were completely cured, and all the rest showed a benefit more or marked. Throughout the 10 nothing was known of Dr. Heath’s researches except by a few of his colleagues at the universities and the physicians with whom he collaborated: Hespublished noth- ing in the scijentific journals, and has not even yet written any account of his investizations. But he determined to break his silence when Dr. Friedmann, whose remedy he believed. he had proved valueless, came forward to stage a trial of his “cure” in the spotlirht of an American mi!- lionaire’s lavishness. Believing he had found a better method than that of the German, Dr. Heath went to New York to Finlay, of whom he requested that he should have as ample an op- portunity for testing his that corded to Dr. Friedmann. Finlay consented, and the St. Louisan’s account of his experiments thut he came to St. Louis for a personal investiga- tion. At close he set the following tions: Dr. Heath is to choose two phy with his serum 15 patients in tie first and seec- ond stages of tuberculosis. The treatment is to be at Finlay’s expense. If 10 of the patients definitely recover, if they are completely freed from physical and microscopic indications of the disease, the banker will confess that Dr. Heath has discovered the long-sought cure for tubere:- losis. ; Similar tests, it was thought, would he exacted from Dr. Friedmann.

Under the circumstances, the compe- tition is likely to attract world-wide celebrity, both from the great financial reward that is at stake and from the pre-eminent importance of the scientific study of tuberculosis. Dr. Heath’s patients will be treated at their homes in St. Louis. The tests wiil begin in the latter part of March and continue for three or four months. His method, as he explained it to a reporter for the Sunday Post-Dispatch Magazine, is as follows: From a goat inoculated with tuberculosis he takes germs of the disease which he puts through three. different treatments, the process recuiring six weeks. At the end of that time they are profoundly modified, both in form and in nature. .The normal ‘tuberculosis germ is straight and thin, like a short hair; but the culti- vated bacillus is three times as long and is curved. By the treatment, he asserts, the germ has lost all of its virulence, and has the prop- when injected among virulent bacilli, of absorbing and neutralizing the poisons which throw off. reformed germs heef erty, they The containing. glycerin, in test tubes extract and peptones, on which they feed. When they are to be in- jected into the human body, after their lack of virulence has been carefully tested upon guinea pigs and rabbits, a general bactericide is added, for it is Dr. Heath's belief that other bacilli than the tuberculosis germ are responsible for manv of the ill effects of consumption.

br. Heath. The latter takes virulent germs and deprives them of their malignancy; Dr. Fried- mann, by passing the bacilli through the sys- tems of successive turtles or other cold-blooded animals, maintains that he has been able to rear a race of microbes which are naturally without virulence. Dr. Heath, though not formally bound by med- ical ethics, as he is not a physicain, says that he intends to conform in every way to their stand- aid. He will not copyright or patent his serum, he declares, but will give it freely to the medi- cal profession as soon as he has perfected the simplicity of its manufacture to a point where other scientists can produce it without the risk of inoculating patients with germs whose viru- lence has not been completely destroyed, possibly with deadly effeet. Unlike Friedmann, Dr. Heath has not yet ven- tured to attempt to immunize persons against ‘u- berculosis, but says that he will devote the next several years to this purpose. It ig the belief, held by both competitors, that there is near at hand a time when all persons will be inoculated against this disease just as they are vaccinated against smallpox: and that then humanity will have won over its most fatal enemy a victory still more brilliant than that of Jenner, If the claims of either bacteriologist are estab- lished in their contest, some Huxley of the fu- ture will have a touching romance of science te relate. A rich young wife, he will explain, saw the roses of her happiness fading when her husband fell ill of tuberculosis. Her father, millionaire American banker, was led by her despair to offer the princely sum of $1,000,000 for a cure of the disease, a reward unparalleled in the history of scientifie discovery.

The fact that the little girl complains of severe headaches which continue for a considerable length of time after a demonstration of her re- iiarcable ability makes the townspeople of War- ren as well as the many visitors from a distance extremely considerate in their requests. Within the. past two months fame has suddenly descended upon the quiet, sleepy little town uf Warren, R. I., where they have strictly fresh eg: and apple pie for breakfast; where everybody knows where everybody else lives, and whee there. are: the loveliest old-fashioned candlesticks ‘then we have tried her in various Ways.

in nearly every home, and historic andirons and old knockers and everything else so quaintly har- monious that one quite forgets the onward rush of time to modern subways and the _ twentieth century rush hour. Fame did not come uninvited. There was a re- ception committee of two—the Rev. Herman W. Watjen and the Hon. Charles Mason. For 16 years the former has been pastor of the Baptist Church at Warren where little Beulah Miller goes to Sunday school. For 35 years Judze Mason has alternately practiced law, prv .ded as trial justice of the town, and been member of the Assembly. For 26 years he officiated as probate and town clerk. Recently he again resumed the practice of law. For a long time the two scholars have realized what Beulah’s peculiar gifts would mean to sci- ence. Several months ago Mr. Watjen called pub- lic attention to the little girl, with the result that unless care is immediately taken her unusual pow- ers will be overtaxed by unscientific investigators. “At first,” said Mr. Watjen, “I thought it was mere child’s talk when the little folks told me of all the clever things Beulah said and did. Since There is absolutely no question as to the genuineness of her ability to read the mind.” Mr. Watjen spoke with conviction. He was seated in the cozy reception room of the Baptist parsonage waiting for Mrs. Watjen to put on‘ her wraps. “We are just going out to the Miller home,” he explained. “‘Mrs. Watjen, Miss Reynolds, a school teacher living here in town and Mr. Williams, the ticket agent, have been wanting to see a demon- stration of Beulah’s work. We are all going out together.” Miss Reynolds was taking the little girl a gift. Mr. Williams purposed giving her all the coins she succeeded in describing. He also carried a deck of cards with which he purposed to make the usual tests. By way of variety I carried a pack- age of “cracker-jacks.”’ Along a bleak country road the little party trudged, it seemed for miles, through snow and facing a bitter wind, far out beyond Warren until there came in sight a tiny, white house sitting a bit back from the roadside. Smoke curled laztly from the chimney. White curtains hung at the windows, a pet lamb peered inquiringly around the corner of the house, and from within came the sound of merry voices. ; “Oh, Mr. Watjen—what a cold day for a walk out here,” exclaimed Mrs. Miller, in hospitable tones, as she threw open the front door. “Come right through to the stove and get warm, all of you.” Without waiting for all to enter, she turned and led the way tc the next room where a coal fire burned brightly and where three young _ girls stood shyly near the doorway. “The little girl in the center is Beulah,” whis- pered Mr. Watjen as the writer entered the front door and started to follow the rest of the party toward the stove, but at the second step, paused. “Is that the little girl!” was my reply, though the child was in the next room. “I would like to shake hands with her, but I cannot put down my muff, even to get warm. It hides the gift I brought her, and I didn’t want to give it to her until she first told me what it was.” The children laughed. Beulah’s eyes danced. “T’ll tell you now,” she cried, blinking rapidly and glancing toward the ceiling. Her lips com- menced te move as though speaking, but ng sound came.

“Let Gladys, her sister, pass behind you,” whis- pered Mr. Watjen. “If she has a glimpse of it Beulah can tell more quickly.” “Come in, Gladys,” he called. tladys, a girl of 13, entered, gave the most cas- val glance at the contents of the muff and stood looking out the window of the front coor, while almost instantly Beulah, from her perch on the edge of a chair in the naxt room fairly wriggled with childish excitement. “T know,” she exclaimed, half laughingly. “It’s B——-O——-X..”"-——- “But what is in it?’ chorused- several voices. “C—O R——N.”’ | The reply came without a moment’s hesitaticn.

What has she been doing?” Everybody laughed. “She seemsto be eating corn, just at present,’ remarked Mr. Williams, fishing about in his pocket for something that jingled. ‘Now then, Gladys, take a look at this.” Gladys, the elder sister, looked. Then she im- mediately joined in conversation with Miss Rey- nolds, and seemed to give no further thought to the matter. Mr. Williams walked over to the next room and interrupted the popcorn party. “Now, Beulah,” he remarked, “I’ve got a piece of money in my hand. Tell me how much it is and what figures are on it and I will give it to you.” 7 The next moment Beulah was rejoicing over the possession of half a dollar. “I wonder if you can tell the people here where SUNDAY MAGAZINE.

Some time later I chanced to pass the house, and found Beulah playing in front As I stopped and talked with her the mother came out, and I said to her: “Is this the little girl of whom I have heard who can do such strange things?” The mother replied, ‘‘Have you heard aboutthat?

I did 1.ot remember at that moment that Miss Reynolds knew my home town, the place haviag been casually mentioned as we walked to the Mil- ler home: “B—_r——_o”"—_- Beulah spelled the first three letters rapidly. Then she hesitated an instant as she pronounced the second o. There was a long pause before the next letter. Miss Reynolds whispered to Gladys. (They were too far away for any sound to carry and Gladys was completely out of sight of Beu- lah.) Instantly, however, the latter was_ enabled tu overcome the stumbling block, and pronounced “k”’ with confidence. The other three letters of “Brooklyn” followed in quick succession, but there was no falling inflection of the _ voice when the last letter was reached. The little girl always pauses abruptly, as though reading discon- nected letters, and waits to be told whether she has really “spelled anything,” as she expresses it. “But you don’t know my name,” I remarked, thinking that at all events no one would know that but myself. “Yes I do.” The little hand of the youthful mind-reader flashed back and forth before her eyes as though she were brushing away cobwebs that obstructed her mental vision. “I know,” she persisted; sighing heavily again. ‘It’s’’—— The she spelled the name. Nota letter was missing, except that she used a “y” in the first name except an “ie.”’ Not one other person ia the room knew either name. There was a general movement on the vart of ali present to go home. Mr. Watjen and Miss Reynolds feared that Beulah might be ill as a -e- sult of such continued mental:strain. The wri- ter attempted one more test. “Therg is something a long way from here that [ am interested in,” I remarked to Beulah, who had gone over to the window and seated herself rather wearily beside her mother. .“It is not a person. It is not a book. Can you tell me the name of that which I have in mind?” The childish effort was manifest. The little girl breathed more and more heavily. Her eyes closed. She made several mista'*es and corrected herself. “S--——u’’—— she exclaimed quickly, and then upon our amazed and almost unbelieving ears there fell the loud and distinct utte ance of every letter contained in tie words, “sunday Magazine.” The little speakér was decidedly exhausted when she had finished the remarkable demonstration. “Yes,” she sighed, “my head aches. I think it will ache a long time now. It will stop, after awhile,’ she added, cheerfully, to reassure ds. “T’ll go out now and play with the lamb awhile.” She grasped her cap and jacket as she spoke and followed us out of the door and into the yard, where the lamb was bleating for attention. The visit had included many other tests besides those enumerated. Mr. Williams had paid spectal attention to the playing cards, and once, when Beulah was in animated conversation with Miss Reynolds he had suddenly inquired what card he had turned cver. Instantly, Beulah ceased speak- ing, glanced toward the ceiling, then laughed heartily. ; . “Oh,” she exclaimed, “you didn’t turn any over.” It was true. Beulah possesses rather large features, a mouth that denotes character and ti.at she opens well when she laughs. Her lashes are long and dark, and her eyes a deep blue, like her mother’s. She is an interesting little girl quite aside from her peculiar mentality, and a favorite with all who know her. Her repeated success seemed to stimulate her to brave another headache, and when her mother ea- plained that she had attempted some writing for a previous visitor she willingly offered to try it again. “Write,” I replied, “the name of the gentlemar, | in New York who wears spectacles, and sits at a desk, and writes al] day’—— a she interrupted. “The first C"——~- Then she commenced to write kboriously, her eyes riveted to the paper. After some minutes she sighed heavily. “It is not all there,” she said, wearily. I looked at the letters she had written. There was a space where the third letter should be aat another just before the final letter. It was time. I could not wait long, and the child was tired. 1 took Mrs. Miller aside, under the pretext of help ing me with my wraps, and whispered to her the missing letters.

Girls’ Canning Club and was among the first members to join. I enjoyed working — and taking care of my one-tenth of an acre. I cultivated my tomatoes myself, but papa helped me to prepare my seed bed and also helped me to stake the tomatoes. He did all the plow- ing. I raised on my one-tenth of an acre one crop of tomatoes and beans, two crops of turnips, one of which the weeds took; the other is still green. I will tell you how I raised my crop from start tu finish. My one-tenth of an acre was broken up in January with a disc harrow and then har- rowed with a section harrow. Feb. 12 my seed bed was prepared. First-the ’ dirt was thrown out and then fertilizer was ‘put in and three inches of dirt thrown-over ‘it. The bed was then leveled with a garden rake-and ‘let stand til] Thursday, Feb. 15, when my tomato * She had

The seeds came up in about five days. On March 27 my tomatoes were planted in. a, cold frame and*:were covered with hot-bed glass to keep the plants from freezing. I took the glass off the tomato plants on sunny days so the plants would get sunshine. The land was run over with a disc harrow to break the clods and laid off with a bull-tongued stock plow with an eight-inch shovel on it. The fertilizer was put in the middles. The rows were bedded up with a bull-tongued stock. The ‘rows were laid off four and one-half feet

Ten days after the tomatoes were planted in the field they were plowed with a five-tooth cul- tivator and then hoed. My first tomatoes bloomed about April 29 and my first little green tomato was found Tuesday, May 25. About May 8 my tomatoes were. plowed with a double shovel. This was to keep the weeds hilled and to break the clods. And about May 9 my tomatoes were raked, around with a gardep hoe to pulverize the soil around ithe stalk. I first began pruning my tomatoes on Wednes- day, May 5, and kept them pruned until after I began selling tomatoes. I sprayed my tomatoes twice with Paris green (in a very weak solution) and sprayed them four times with Bordeaux mixture, as the worms were so bad. I had to catch worms several times. My tomatoes were. plowed with a five-tooth cul- tivator on May 16.. My plants were also hoed on May 16. My tomatoes were staked Monday, May 24, and were tied on “Thursday, which took four and My first ripe tomato was sold on June 19. My tomatoes were plowed June 25 with a spring-+ooth cultivator. My tomatoes were hoed and the dirt pulled around the stalks Tuesday, June 28. Kentucky Wonder Pole beans were planted Tuesday, July 16, and wax beans were planted. I hoed my beans three times. Turnips were planted or sowed between. ‘the beans, but they didn’t do any good, as the weeds took them. I just’ got a little over one bushes off that patch. Tomato stakes were pulled up about Sept. 1 The ground was then broken with a two-horse turning plow, then harrowed off with a section harrow. The ground lay about ten days to let the grass decay. About Sept. 11 purple-top globe turnips were - sowed and plowed in with a 14-inch tooth har row, which had several small plows on it. MY¥ turnips are green but small] and are looking pret ty. I sold 75 baskets of. tomatoes and also one basket of culls, besides I canned 85 three-pound tin cans of tomatoes.

(Copyright, 1912, Tne Babbs-Merrill Co.) CHAPTER I—FIGHTING SHRIMPLIN. C USTER felt it his greatest privilege to sit of a Sun- kitchen and, while she washed the breakfast dishes, listen to such reflections as his father might care to indulge in. . On these occasions the senior Shrimplin’ commonly called Shrimp by his intimates, was the very picture of unconventional ease-taking as he lolled in his chair be- fore the kitchen stove, a cracker box half filled with sawdust conveniently at hand. As far back as his memory went Custer could recall vividly these Sunday mornings, with the church bells ringing peacefully beyond the windows of his modest home, and his father in easy undress, just emerged from ag his weekly bath and pleasantly redolent of strong yel- low soap, his feet incased in blue yarn socks—white at toe and heel—and the neckband of his fresh-starched shirt sawing away at the lobes of his freckled ears. On these occasions Mr. Shrimplin inclined to a certain sad conservatism as he discussed with his son those events of the week last passed which had left their impress on his mind. But what pleased Custer best was when his father, ceasing to be gently discursive and becoming S | vigorously personal, added yet another canto to the stir- ring epic of William Shrimplin. Custer was wholly and delightfully sympathetic. There 4 was, he felt, the very choicest inspiration tm the narra- tive, always growing and expanding, of his father’s ear- lier career, before Mrs. Shrimplin came into his*life, and as Mr. Shrimplin delicately intimated, tied him hand and foot. Mrs. Shrimplin had been born on the flats, and the flats cast of mind, though Custer—without knowing what is meant by a sense of humor, suspected her of this rare gift, a dangerous and destructive thing in woman. ~s He felt vaguely that she was narrow and provincial; for had she not always lived on the -flats, a region bounded by the Square on thé north and by Stoke's fur- niture factory on the south? Mrs. Shrimplin had been born on the flats and the flats had witnessed her mee‘ing and mating with Shrimplin, when that gentlemen ‘ad first appeared in Mount Hope | in the interest of Whitir2’s celebrated tooth powder, to the use of which be was not perensl’y committed. At | that time he was also an itinerant bill-poster and had | his lodgings at Maxy Schaeffer's Railroad Hotel hard by the B. & O. tracks. Mr. Shrimplin was 5 feet 3, and narrow chested. A drooping flaxen mustache shaded a sloping chin and a loose under lip, while a pair of pale eyes looked sadly ; cut unon tre world from the shadow of a hooked nose. ) Mr. Joe Montgomery, Mrs. Shrimplin’s brother-in-law, ee present on the occasion of her marriage to the little bill- | rester, hed critically surveyed the bridegroom and had heen moved to say to a friend, “Shrimp certainly do favor a reanut!”

; | Mr Sh~implin had now become a public servant, for + certain gasoline lamps in the town of Mount Hope were : | his proud and particular core. He still further added to his income by bill-posting and paper hanging. | And Custer was as like the senior Shrimplin as it was possible for 14 to be like 48. His mother said, “He cer- tainly looks for all the world like his pa!’ but her man- ner of saying it left doubt as to whether she rejoiced in Ae | the fact. * Se ii It was a vagary of Mr. Shrimplin’s that 10 reckless te / years cf his life had been spent in the West, the far West. the West of cow-towns and bad men; that for this e decade he had flourished on bucking bronchos and in gild- £ | ed bars. the admired hero of a variety of deft homicides. Out of his irner consciousness he had evolved a sprightly | | } epic of which he was the central figure, a figure, ac- ; 7 cording to Custer’s firm belief, sinister, fateful with big sae jingling ‘silver spurs at his heels and iron on his hips, whose specialty was manslaughter. In the creation of his romance he might almost be said to have aequired © literary habit of mind, to which he was meakurablv helped by the fiction he read. Custer devoured the same books; but he never sus- 3 nected his father of the crime of plagiarism, nor guessed

that his choicest morsels of adventure involved a felony. It was one memorable 27th of November, and being Thanksgiving day, it was very like a Sunday. Mr. Shrimplin and Custer sat before the kitchen stove ara in the intervals of his narrative listened to the wind ~jco without, and watched the sparse flakes of fine snow thet it broveht coldly out of the north, where the cloud banks lav leaden and chill on the far horizon.

gard. 4 | ¥ T] i = J] On the floor DiS at his feet was a strange huddled shape. Shrimplin adéed not a little to the sense of its import- ence by di.ating on the intrigues of ambitiovs rivals who desired to wrest his contract from him; and he impressed Custer, who frequently accompanied him on his rounds, with the wisdom of keeping the lamps that shone upon the homes of members of the Town Council in especially good order. Furthe'more, there were possibilities of adventure in the occupation; it took Mr. Shrimplin into out-of-the-way streets and unfrequented alleys, and, as Custer knew, he always went armed. To Mr. Shrimplin and his son the small events of life magnified themselves, becoming distorted and porten- tous. A man, emerging suddenly from an alley in the dusk of the early evening. furnished them with a theme for infinite speculation and varied conjectufe. It was midday on that 27th of November when Mrs. Shrimplin began to prepare the dressing for the small turkey that was to be the principal feature of their 4 o’clock dinner. The morning’s scanty fall of snow had been so added to as time passed that now it completely whitened the strip of brown turf ip the little side yard beyond the kitchen windows. | “I think,” said Mr. Shrimplin, “we are going to see some weather. Well. snow ain't a bad thing.” “No?” said Custer interrogatively. “If I was going to murder a man, I don’t reckon I'd care to do it when there was snow on the gruund. I suppose more criminals has been caught because they done their crimes when it was snowing than any other way. Only chance a feller would have to get off with- out leaving tracks would he in © halloon.” At 5 o’clock Mr. Shrimplin. backed wild Bill in to the shafts of his high cart, lighted a hissing gasoline torch, and mounted to his seat. Bill went out of the alley back of Mr. Shrimplin’s small barn, his head high, and taking tremendous strides that somehow failed in their purpose if speed was the result desired. Twilight deepened: the snow fell softly, silently, until it became a ghostly mist that hid the town—hid the very houses on opposite sides of the street, and through this. flurry Bill shuffled with unerring instinct, dragging Mr. Shrimplin from lamp post to lemp post, until presently down the street a long row wf lights blazed red in the swirling smother of white. Mrs. Shrimplin was busy with her mending. All at once Custer. started. “What's that?’ he cried. “La, Custer, how you startle a body! It’s the town bell.” . ‘Tt ain’t half past seven yet. Maybe it’s a fire!” “Set down, Custer! You know your pa don't allow you to go to no fires after night.” “A quarter after seven ain't night!” “No arguments, Custer! I won't have you trapesing about the streets.” “Why don’t they give the ward? I never heard such a fool way of ringing for a fire!” . They were silent, intent and listening. “They ain’t give the ward yet!” said Custer, “1 wish your.pa was to home!” said Mrs. Shrimplin. As she spoke they caught the muffled sound of hurry- ing feet, then the clamor of voices, eager and excited; Section—St. Loyls Post Dispatch March 2, 1312. east <4)

OHN NORTH occupied the front rooms on the first 4 floor of the three-story brick structure that stood at the corner of Main street and the Square. The Only other tenant on the flpor with him was Andy Gil- more, who had apartments at the baek of the building. Until quite recently Mr. North and Mr. Gilmore had been friends and boon companions. but of tate North had rather avoided this neighbor of his. Mount Hope said that North had parted with the major portiom of his small fortune to Gilmore. Mount Hope also said and believed, and with most excellent justification for doing so, that North was a focl—a truth he hd told himself so many times within the last month that it had become the utter weariness of iteration. ner. He had been—and he was fully aware of this—as idle and as worthless as any young fellew could possibly be; he was even aware that the worst Mount Hope said of him was much better than he deserved. In those hours that were such a new. experience to him, when he denied himself other companionship than his own accus- ing conscience; when the contemplation of the naked shape of his folly absorbed him to the exclusion of sll else, he would sit before his fire with the poker elutched in his hands and his elbows resting on his knees, rokinz betwen the bars of the grate, pokirg moodily, while un- der his breath he cursed the weakness that had made him what he was With his hair in disorder on his handsome shapely head, he would sit thus hours together. not whollv trseen. sible for a certain grim sense of humor. since tn all his schemes of life he had made no provision for the Very thing that had happened. He wondered mighti'y what a fellow could do with his last thousand. dollars. especially when a fellow chanced to be in love and medi- ‘tated nothing less than marritaee: for North's dav-dream, coming like the sun through a rift in the clouds to light up the somberness of his solite-y musings, was all of love and Elizabeth Herbert. One point was clear: he must leave Mount Hope.- where he had run his coun where he was involved and com ™itted in ways he coufé not bear to think of. To go meant that he would be forsaking much that wes evil: a situation from which he could not extricate himself otherwise. In the intervals between his musings Mr. North get t* gether such ,of his pers~nal belongings as he d@een.-4 worth the removal; he was surnrised to find how few were the things he really valued.

Under his hands—for the spirit of reform was strorg upon him—his rooms took on a sober appearance. He amused himself by making sundry penitential offerings fo the flames: numerous evidences of his unrighteous bachelorhood disappearing from walls and b-ok-sheives. Coincident with this he owned to a feelig of intense satisfaction., What re i He was a muscular young fell’w of 26, with a hand/ some face, and, when he chose, a*kindly char 1-

Se RO Laas a Ph ate to Ree geired he would have his friend Marshall Langham sell ¥ pe’ after he was g:ne, his finances having suddenly become Of paramucnt impontan - '“Thank you for your kindness, Mr. McBride’ “It was no kindness, just a matter of business,” said McBride hastily. “I'm no philanthropist, John, but just a plain man of busimess who'll drive a close bargain if he can.” | Pie “At any rate, I’m geing to thank you,” insisted North, smiling pleasantly. “Good-by,” and he extended his hand, which the old merchant took. “Good-by, and good luck to you, John, and you might drop me a line ‘now and then just to say how you get on.” “I will. Good-by!” “I know you'll succeed, John. A bit of application, a bit of necessity to spur you on, and we'll be proud of you yet!” oh North laughed as he opened the door and stepped out; and Archibald McBride, looking through his dingy show- windows, watched him until he disappeared down the street: then he turned and re-entered his office. Meanwhile North hurried away with the remnant of his little fortune in his pocket. Five minutes’ walk brought him to the building that had sheltered him for the last few years. He climbed the stairs and entered He patised, key in hand, before his door, when he heard behind him a light footfall on the uncarpeted floor and the swish of a woman's skirts. AS he turned abruptly, the woman who had ‘evidently fol- lowed him up from the street, came swiftly down the hall toward him. “Jack!” she said. “Mrs: Langham!—Evelyn!” | “Hush, Jack, you needn't call it from the housetops!” As she spdke she swept aside her veil and he saw her face, a superiatively pretty face with scarlet smiling and dark luminous eyes that were smiling, too. “Do you want to see me, Evelyn?” She pointed t» the door with her small gloved hand. “Open it, Jack!” For a moment he hesitated. She was the one person he did not wish to see, least of all did he wish to see her there. She was not nicely Wiscreet. as he well knew. She did many things that were not wise, that were, in- deed, frankly imprudent. But clearly they could not stand there in the hallway. Gilmore and some of Gil- fore’s friends might come up the stairs at any moment. Langham himself might be of these. Something of all this passed through North's mind as he stood there hesitating. Then he unlocked the door, and standing aside, motioned her to precede him into the room. This room, the largest of several he occupied, was his parlor. On entering he closed the door after him, and drew a chair for Evelyn, but he did not himself sit down, nor did he remove his overcoat. He had known Evelyn all his life, they had played to-- gether as children; more than this, though now he would have been quite willing to forget the whole episode and even more than willing that she should forget it, there had been a time when he had moped in wretched melan- choly because of what he had then considered her utter. fickelness. Shortly after this he had been sent East to college and had borne the separation with a fortitude that ha@ rather surprised him when he recalled how bit- ter a thing her heartlessness had seemed. When they met again he had found her more allur- ing than ever, but more devoted to her pleasures also; and then Marshall Langham had come into her life. North had divined that the course of their love-making. was far from smooth, for Langham’s:temper was high and his will arbitrary, nor was he one to bear meekly the crosses she laid on him, crosses which other men had borne in smiling uncomplaint, reasoning no doubt, that it was unwise to take her favors too seriously; that as they were easily achieved they: were quite as easily forfeited. But Langham was not like the other men with whom she had amused herself. He was not only older and more brilliant, but was giving every indication that his professional success would be solid and sub- stantial. Evelyn’s father had championed his cause, and in the end she married hin. In the five years that had elapsed since then, her ro- mance had taken its place with the accepted things of life, and she revenged herself on Langham, for what she had come to consider his unreasonable exactions, by her recklessness, .by her thirst for pleasure, and above all by her extravagance. ; Through all the vicissitudes of her married life, the smallest part of which he only guessed, North had seen much of Evelyn. There was a daring dangerous reck- lessness in her mood that he had sensed and understood and to which he had made quick response. He knew that she was none too happy with Langham, and al- though he had been consciou of no wish to wrong the husband he had never paused to consider the outcome of his intimacy with the wife. “You wonder why I came here, don’t you, Jack?” “Vou should never have done it!” “What about my letters, why didn’t you answer them? I hadn’t one word from you in weeks. It quite spoiled my trip East. What was I to think? And then you sent me just a line saying vou were leaving Mount Hope’”’ she drew in her breath sharply. “Why?” ‘It is better that I should.” He felt a sudden remorseful tenderness for her; he wished that she might have divined the change that had come over him; even how worthless a thing his devo- tion had been, the utter selfishness of it. “Why is it better?, Jack, have I done anything to make you hate me”? “Don’t you care any longer for me?” “I care a great deal, Evelyn. I want you to think the best of me.” é “But why do you go? ing, Jack? “IT don’t know yet, my plans are very uncertain. I am quite at the end of the money.

Tonight!” “I am at the end of my string, Evelyn.” “I—I shall miss you dreadfully, Jack! You know I am frightfully unhappy; what will it be when you go? Marsh has made a perfect wreck of my life!” “Nonsense, Evelyn! You must be careful what you say to me!’ “IT haven't been careful before!” He bit his lips. She went on swiftly. “Tl have told you everything! I don’t care what hap- pens to me—you know I don’t, Jack! I am deadly des- perately tired! One endures a situation as long as one can, but there comes a time when it is impossible to ge on with the falsehood any longer, and I have reached that time! It is my life, my happiness that are at stake!” “Sometimes it is better to do without happiness.” “That is silly, Jack, no one beiieves that sort of thing any more; but it is good to teach to women and children, it saves a lot of bother, I suppose. But men take theif happiness regardless of the rights of others!” “Not always,” he said. “Yes, always!” she insisted. “But you knew what Marsh was before you marrieé him.” “It's a woman's vanity te Believe she can reform, cau And wh do you think of go- Fiction Section -St. Louis Post-Dispatch -March 2, 1913.

Why did you not come to see me?” “I only learned that -you were in town this afternoon.” “Yes, but you had no intention of coming, I know you. hadn't! You. would have left Mount Hope without even a good-by to me!” ; “It is hard enough to have to go, Evelyn!” “It isn’t that, Jack. What have I done? How have I displeased you?” a “You haven't displeased me, Evelyn.” “Then why have you treated me as you have?” “I thought it would be easier,” he said. “Have you forgotten what friends we were once? You always helped me out of my difficulties then, and you told me once that you cared—a great deal for me, more than you should ever care for any woman!” “Yes,’ he answered shortly. He would scarcely have admitted to himself how fool- ish his early passion had been, for it was at least sin- cere and there could have been no sacrilice, at one time, that he would not have willingly made for her sake. His later sentiment for her had been a disgracing and a dis- graceful thing, and he was glad to think of this boyish . love, since it carried him back to a time before he had wrought only misery for himself She misunderstood his reticence, she could not realize that she had lost the power that had once been hers. “What a mistake I made. Jack!" she cried, and stretched out her hands toward him. 4 He fell back a step, “Nonsense!” he said. “How stupid you are!” she exclaimed. She half rose from her chair with her hands still ex- tended toward him. For a moment he met her glance, and then, disgusted and ashamed, withdrew his eyes from hers. Evelyn sank back in her chair and her face turned white and she covered it with her hands. North was the first to break the silence. “We would both of us better forget this.” She rose and stood at his side. The color returned to her cheeks. : “What a fool you are, John North! And I might have made the tragic mistake of really caring for you! What a boy you are—almost as much of a boy as when we used to play together.” “F think there is nothing more to say, Evelyn. It is growing late. You must not be seen leaving here!” “Oh, it would take a great deal to compromise me; though if Marsh finds out that I have been here he'll be ready to kill me!” elegy. hog Ve eee North was silent. “ “You must be in iove, Jack! You see, I'll not grant that you are the saint you'd have me think you! Yes, you are in love!’’ for he colored angrily at her words. ai Rs He interrupted her harshly. “Don’t speak her name!” “Then it is true! I'd heard that you were, but I did not believe it! Yes, you are right, we must forget that I came here today.” While she was speaking she had moved towards the deor, and instinctively he had stepped past her to open it. When he turned with his hand on the knob, it brought them again face to face. The smile had left her lips, they were mere delicate lines of color. She raised herself on tiptoe and her face, gray-white, was very close to his. “What a fool you are;—dactk,- what a coward you must be!” and she struck him on the cheek with her gloved hand. “You are a coward!” His face grew as white as her own, and he did not trust himself to speak. She gave him a last contemptu- ous glance and drew her veil. “Now open the door,” she said insolently. “He did so, and she brushed past him swiftly and stepped out into the long hali. For a moment North stood staring after her, and then he closed the door.

CHAPTER II—STKANGE BEDFELLOWS. Gilmore, after a brief instant-~-of irresolution, stepped into the room. He was crudely handsome, a powerfully-built man of about Langham’s own age, swarthy-faced and with ruthless lips showing red under a black waxed mustache. His hat was inclined at a “sporty” angle and the cigar which he held firmly be- tween his strong even teeth was tilted in the same di- rection, imparting a rakish touch to Mr. Gilmore's other- wise sturdy and aggressive presence. “Howdy, Marsh!” “What the devil brings you here; Andy?” “You’re a civil cuss, Marsh, but one wouldn't always know it. Ain’t I a client, ain’t I a friend—and damn it all, man, ain’t I a creditor? There are three excuses, any one of which is gufficient to bring me into your esteemed presence!” | “We may as well omit the first,” growled Langham. wheeling his chair back from the desk and facing Gil- W ici North quitted Marshall Langham’s office, *more. eg “Because there is nothing more that I can do for you,” said Langham shortly. “Oh yes there is, Marsh, there’s a whole lot more you can do for me. There’s Moxlow, the distinguished pros- ecuting attorney; without you to talk sense to him he’s liable to listen to all sorts of queer people who take more interest in my affairs than is good for them; but as long as he’s got you at his elbow he won't forget my little stake in his/’election.” . “If you wish him not to forget it, you'd better not be so particular in reminding him of it; he'll get sick of you and your concerns!” “J ain't going to remind him of it; what have I got you for, Marsh? It’s your job. I know I ain’t popular here in Mount Hope, I know there are plenty of people who'd like to see me run out of town; but I'm no quitter, they'll find. It suits me.to stay here, and they can’t touch me if Moxlow won’t have it. That’s your job, that’s what I hire you for, Marsh; you’re Moxlow’s partner, you’re your father’s son, it’s up to you to see I ain’t interferred with. Don’t tell me you can’t do anything more for me. I won't have it!” “I nave done what FI could for you,” the lawyer said. choking down his rage. ; “Oh, go to hell! You know you haven't hurt yourself, said Gilmore insolently. “Well, then, why do you come here?” “Same old business, Marsh.” He lounged across the room and dropped, yawning, into a chair near the win- dow. more squinted at him over the end of his cigar “Same old business, Marsh!” Gilmore repeated lazily. “What's the enemy up to, anyhow? Are the good peo- ple of Mount Hope worrying Moxlow? Is their sleepless activity going to interfere with my sleepless profession, ‘eh? Can you answer me that?” -‘*¥foxlow has cut the office of late.” “He’s happened on a good thing in the prosecuting attorney’s office, I suppose? It’s a pity yeu didn’t strike t ictio: There was silence between them for a little space. Langham fussed with the papers on his desk, while Gil- -_. . ae oa a $e eg ey seine . oot ‘ “#é at - my eta eel oe be -* oe @cntrol a muan., Jack, dear Jack, are you going to fal! out for sat, Marsh; you'd have been of some use to your }use—and you have used me up to the limit! Ive been geod enough to borrow money from, but not good enough friends if you'd get the job.” “Not necessarily,” said Langham. “Well, when’s Moxftew going after me?" “I haven't heard him say. He told me he had suf- ficient evidence for your Indictment.” “Yes, of course,” agreed Gilmore placidly._ “I guess yours is a case for the next grand jury!” “So Moxlow’s in earnest about wishing to make trouble for me?” : “Oh, he’s in earnest, all right He’ll go after you, and perhaps by the time he’s done with you you'll wish you’d taken my advice and made yourself scarce!” “I’m no quitter!” rejoined Gilmore. “By all means stay in Mount Hope if you think it’s worth your while,” said Langham indifferently. “Cam you give me some definite idea as to when the fun begins?” “No, but it wil? be soon emough, Andy. He wants the support of the best element. He can’t afford to offend it.” “And he knows ycu are my lawyer?” “Of course.” “Ain’t that going to cut any figure with him?” “Certainly not.” “Is that so. Marsh?’ He crossed his legs and mursed an ankle with both hands. “Well, somebody ought to lose Moxlow—take him out and forget to find him again. He’s much too good for this world; it ain't natural. He’s about the only man of his age In Mount Hope who ain’t drifted into my rocms a‘ one time or another.” He paused and took the cigar from between his teeth. “You'll call him off, Marsh, make him agree to let me

alone; ain't there such a thing as friendship in this pro- fession of yours?” Langham shook his head, and Gilmore’s black brows met in a frown. “You're a hell of a lawyer!” he sneered. “Be careful what you say to me!” cried Langham, sud- denly giving way to the feeling of rage that until now he had held in check. “Oh, I’m careful enough. I guess if you stop to think a minute you'll understand you got to take what [ choose to say as I choose to Say it!” : Langham sprang to his feet shaking with anger. “No, by’”—— he began hoarsely. “Sit down,” said Gilmore coldly. “You can’t affoid to row with me; anyhow, I ain't going to row with you. (ll tell vou what I think of you and what I expect of you, so sit down!” There was a long pause Gilmore gazed out the win- dow. He seemed to watch the hurrying snowflakes with’ no interest in Langham who was still standing by his desk. with one shaking hand resting on the back of his chair. Presently the lawyer resumed his seat and Gil- more turned toward him. “Don’t talk about my quitting here, Marsh,” he said menacingly. “That’s the kind of legal advice I won't have from you or anyone else.” “You may as well make up your mind first as last to it,” said Langham. “I can't keep Moxlow quiet any longer; the sentiment of the community is against gamblers. If you are not a gambler, what are you?’ “You mean you are going to throw me over, you two?” “With Moxlow it is a case of bread and butter; per- sonally I don’t care whom you fleece, but I've got my iiving to make here In Mount Hope, tco, and I can't af- ford to go counter to public opinion.” “You have had some favors out of me, Marsh.” “) am not likely to forget them, you give me no chanes,” rejoined Langham bitterly. “why should I, eh?” asked Gilmore coolly. He leaned back in his chair and stared at the ceiling abuve his head. “Marsh, what was that North was saying about me when I came down the hall?” “—T don't recall that he was speaking of you.” “You don’t? Well, think again. It was about our going up to your house tonight, wasn’t it? Your wife's back, eh? Well, don’t worry, I came here partly to tell you that I had made other arrangements for the even- ing.” “Tt’s just as well,” said Langham. “Do you mean your wife wouldn’t receive me?” “J didn’t say that.” Gilmore’s chair resounded nofsily on the floor as he eame to his feet. He strode to the lawyer's side. “Then what in bell do you say?" “Oh, keep still, Andy! What a nasty-tempered beast you are!” There was a pause, and Gilmore resumed his chair, turning to the window to hide his emotion; then slowly his scowling glance came back to Langham. “fre said I wag a common card-sharp, eh?” Laneham knew that he spoke of North. “Damn him! What does he call himself?’ He threw the stub of his cigar from him across the room. “Marsh, what does your wife know about me?” “Know about ycu-my wife—nothing.” “TI suppose she’s heard my name?” “No doubt.” “Thinks I rob you at ecards, eh? Thinks I take your money away ftom you. And it’s your game to let her think that! If wonder what she'd think if she knew the account stood the other way about?

to take home” “Oh, come, Andy, what's the use,” placated Langham. “I’m sorry if your feelings are hurt.” “It’s time you and I had a settlement, Mzrsh., I want you to take up those notes of yours.” ; “I haven’t the money!” said Langham. * “Well, I can't wait on you any longer.” “I don’t see but that you'll have to.” “I'm going to offer a few inducements for haste, Marsh. I'm going to make you see that it’s worth your while to find that money for me quick—understatd? You owe me about $2000; are you fixed to turn it in by the end of the month?” The gambler bit off the end of a fresh cigar and held it a moment between his fingers as he gazed at Langham, waiting for his reply. The latter shook his head but said nothing. i “Well, then, by George, I am going to sue you!” “Because I can’t protect you longer!”

“Oh, to hell with your protection! Go dig up the, money for me or I’li raise a fuss here that'll hurt _ than one reputation! The notes are good, ain't they”? “They are good when I have-the money to meet them.’ “They are good even if you haven't the money to mee them! I guess Judge Langham’s indorsement is wor something, and Linscott’s a rich man: even Moxlow’s got fome property. Those are. the three who are on you paper, and the paper’s considerably overdue.” Langham turned a pale face on the gambler. “You won't do that, Andy!” he said, in a voice which he vainly strove to hold steady. “Won't I? Do you think I'm in business for my health?” And he laughed shortly, then he wheeled on Langham with unexpected fierceness. “I'll give you un-~

til the first of the month, Marsh, and then I'm going _ after youn without gloves. I don’t care a damn who squares the account; your indorsers’ cash will suit n well as your own.” He caught the expression on Laftig- — ham's face, its de and paused sudde itself at the corr By rested it on Lary a you tried that . eek — ee bank in the morning and see if the signatures uine.” “Do it!” Langham spoke in a whisper. “Maybe you think I won't!" sneered the gambler. “Maybe you'd rather I didn’t, eh?

? “Do what you like; whatever suggests itself to a scurvy whelp like you!” er “If you are trying to encourage me to smash you, Marsh, you have got the right idea as to how it’is to be done.”’ -“Smash me then; I haven't the money to pay you.” “Get it!” said Gilmore tersely. “Where?” “You are asking too much of me, Marsh. if I coul< finance you I'd cut out cards in the future. How ineud the Judge—-no? Weil, I just threw that out as a hint, | but I supp~:e you have been there already, for naturally ‘ you'd compliment him by giving him the chance to pull you up out of your troubles. Since your own father won't help you, how about Linscott? Is he going to want to see his son-in-law disgraced? I guess he’s your best chance, Marsh. Put it on strong and for once tell the truth. Tell) him you've dabbled in forgery and that it won’t work!” Langham had dropped back in his chair. He was seeking to devise some expedient that would meet his present difficulties. His bondage to the gambler had be- come intolerable, anything would be better than a con- tinuance of that.- The monstrevs folly of those forger- ies seemed beyord anything he could have perpetrated in his sober senses. He must have been mad! , He might go to his father, but he had been to him only recently, and the Judge himself was burdened with debt. He might go tio Mr. Linscott, he might even try North. He could tell the latter the whole circumstance and bor- row a part of what was left of his small fortune; ofa course he was in his debt. as it was. but North would never think of that; he was a man to share his last dol- lar with a friend. He was notorious for his inability to pay hig debts. This notoriety was hurting his professional standing, and now if Gilmore carried out his threat he must look forward to thie shame of a public exposure. He wondered what men did in a crisis such as this Until now he had always felt certain of himself and of - his future; time was to bring him into the presence of his dear desires, when he should have money to lift the burden of debt, money to waste, money to scatter, money to spend for the good things of life. But he had made the fatal mistake of anticipating the success in which he so firmly believed. Those no —he dashed his hand before his face; suddenly the air of the room seemed to stifle him, courage and cunning had left him; there was only North to whom he could turn for a few nundreds with which to quiet Gilmore Let him but escape the consequences of his folly this time and he promised himself he would retrench: he would live within his income, he would apply himself-to his profession as he had never yet applied himself. He scowled heavily at Gilmore, who met his se owl with a cynical smile. [ “Well, whateare you going to do?” x gag: r

SHRIMPLIN had made his way through a num- re i of back streets oe adventure of an’ ‘pu pusd #2 at as the nig Migs the storm. clases 16 - to : oueinc ee ead am getting down to my lasts rr e lamp lighter ' out ~ % T chabiey. auteeaususes streets and It had grown. steadily: celder with the ap»reach of night. and the wind had risen: The streets seemed de- serted, and Mr. Shrimplin being as he was of a somewhat fanciful turn of mind, could almost imagine himself and ill the only living things astir in all the town. He reached Water street, the western boundary of that part of Mount Hope known as the flats. He jogged past Maxy Schaffer’s Railroad Hotel at the corner of Front street, which flung the wicked radiance of its bar- room windows along the shining railroad track where it crossed the creek on the new iron bridge; and keeping on down Water street with its smoky tenements, entered an tlying district where the lamps were fa: apart and here red and blue and green switch lights blinked at im out of the storm. It was nearly 6 o’clock when he at last wheeled into the Square; here only three gasoline burners—survivors of the old regime—held their own against the fast en- croaching gas lamp. He lighted one in Division street and was ready to turn and traverse the north side of the Square to the second lamp which stood a block away at the corner of High street. He was drawing Bill’s head about—Bill being smitten with a sudden desire to go directly home leaving the night’s work unfinished—when the muffled figure of a man appeared in the street in front of him. The inch or more of snow that now cover:d the pave- ment had deadened the sound of his steps, while the eddying flakes had made possible his near approach un- seen. As he came rapidly into the red glare of Mr. Shrimplin’s hissing torch that hero was exceeding well pleased to recognize a friendly face. “How are you, Mr. North?” “Oh, it’s you Shrimp! A nasty night, isn’t it?” “It’s the suffering human limit!” As he spoke the town bell rang the hour. “Six o'clock,” observed Mr.-Shrimplin. “Good night, Shrimp,” replied North irreleve»ttv. He turned away and an instant later was engulfed in the wintry night, Having at last pointed Bill’s head in the right direc- tion Mr. Shimplin drove that trusty beast un to the lamp post on the corner of High street, when suddenly and for no apparent reason Bill settled back in the shafts and exhibited unmistakable, though humiliating symptoms of fright. “Go on, you!" cried Mr. Shrimplin, Slapping bravely with both the lines, but his voice was far from steady, for suppose Bill shculd abandon the rectitude of a life- time and begin to kick. “Go on. you!” repeated Mr. Shrimplin and slapped the fies azain, but less vigorously, for by this time Bill was Pea adestioninsty backing away from the curb. “Be done! Be done!” expostulated Mr. Shrimplin, but he gave over slap”inz the lines, for why irritate Bill in _ his present uncertain mood? “Want I should get out 2 and lead you?’ asked Mr. Shrimplin, putting aside with “, one hard the blarke's in which he was wrapned. “You're a wame old codger, ain’t you? I guess you ain’t aware you've growed up!” & While he was still speaking he iioved to the ene nd worked his way hand over hand up the lines to 3's bit. Bill was now -comfortably lécated on his p-iaunches, but evidently still dissatisfied for he contin- ‘ed to back vigorously, drawing the protesting little ’ lampl'2’ ter after him. When he had put perhaps twenty be feet between hims+ lf and the lamp post Bill achieved his es usual upright attitude and his coyntenance assvmed its Ahsbitual contemplative expression. the haunted look ‘faded from his sagacious eye and his flaming nostrils “resumed their normal benevolent expression. Taking “mote vf these swift changes, it occurred to Mr. Shrimplin i t rather than r'sk a repetition of his recent experi- Pnce he would so far sacrifice his efficial dignity as to go on foot to the lamp post. Bill would pr b-bly stand Where he was, indefinitely, starding being one of his valued accomplishm« ““Qoveners Taylor, and Tt ee the ‘Sherift, rep ied Harbteon. The man nodded. “All rieht, ll bring them; and say, what about. the Prosecuting Attorney?” ‘Yes, bring Moxlow, toe. if you can find. him.” The man hurried from the room. Gilmore lear«d ageinst the counter and smoked imperturbably. Joe Mentgomery, with his great slouching shoulders arched; and his grimy hands buried deep in his trousers pockets, stared at the dead man in stolid wonder. Coi. Harbi- — “sen’s glance sought the same object with a sensitive shrinking as from an ugly brutal thing. A clock ticked loudly in the office; there was the occasional fall of cinders from the grate of the rusted stove that heated the place: these were sounds that neither Gilmore nor the Colonel had heard before. Presently a lean black cat stole from the office and sprang from the counter; it purred softly. “Hello, puss!” said the gambler, putting out a hand. The cat stole closer. “I guess I'll have to take you home with me, eh? This aint’ a place for unprotected females!” ~The cat crept back and forth under his caressing touch. It was scarcely half an hour since Shrimplin had fallen speechless into Col. Harbisgon’s arms yet fully two hundred men had gathered in that long room or were struggling about the door to gain admittance to it. 4t a suggestion from Harbison, the gambler fol- lowed by Joe, elbowed his way to tne front door, which in spite of the protest of those outside, he closed and locked. A moment later, however. he opéned it to ad- mit Dr. Taylor, the Coroner, and Conklin, the Sheriff. The latter instantly set about clearing the room. Gilmore ard the Colonel remained with the officials and during the succeeding 10 minutes the gambler who had kept hia post at the door, opened it to Moxlow, young Watt Harbison and two policemen. As the Coroner finished his examination of the body. the sound of wheels was heard in the Square ard an undertaker’s wagon drew up to the door. The mur- dered man was placed on a stretcher and covered with a black cloth, then four men raised the stretcher and for the last time the old merchant passed out under his ereaking sign into the night “I've agreed to watch at the house, Andy,” said Col. | Harbison. “I want you and Watt to come with me.” The gambler lighted a fresh cigar and the three men left the store. With the scattering of the crowd on the Square, Shrimplin climbed into his cart 2rd drove off home. He drove into the alley back of his house. unhitched Bill ard led him into the barn. His torch made the gicom of the rlace more terrifying than utter darkness wld have been Suppose the murderer should be hiding there! Mr. Shrimplin’s mind fastened on the haymow as the most likely place of concealment, and the coli sweat ran from him in icy streams; he could almost see the murderer’s evil eyes fixed upon him from the black- ness above. But at last Bill was stripped of his harness. ard the little lamplighter, escaping from the barn with his farcied terrors, hurried across his small back yard to his kitchen door. “Wrell't’ said Mrs. Shrimplin, as he entered the room. “T was beginning to wonder if you'd ever think it worth your while to come home!” - “What's the bell been ringing for?” asked Custer. “T suppose I’ve been out quite a time. and I may say I’ve seen times, too! I guess there ain’t no ere in the town fitter to sav they seen times than just me!” “T know'” cried Custer. “Some one’s been killed!” “Exactiv!”’ said Mr. Shrimplin with increasing benevo- lence. ‘Some one has been killed!” “How you do talk!” said Mrs. Shrimplin. ‘I reckon I might sav more, most anyone would.” re- torted Mr. Shrimplin quietly. “It was old man McBride —some one’s murdered him for his money; I never seen the town so on end over anything before, but whoever wants to be well posted’s got to come to me for the par- ticulars. I seen the old man before Col. Harbison seen tim, I seen him before Ardy Gilmore seen him, I seen him before the Coroner seen him, or the Sheriff or any ene seen him! I was on the spot ahead of ’em all. If any o> e warts to know how he looked just after he was killed, they got to come to m® to find out. Col. Harhbi- son can’t tell ’em, and And Gilmore can't tell ’em: it's ontv me krows them particulars!” “What took you into Mr. McBride’s store? You hadn't no errand there.” Mrs. Shrimplin was a careful and in- quisitive wife. “IT allow I made aw errand there.” said Mr. Shrimplin bridling. “I reckon many another man might have thought. he handn’t no errand there either, but I feel different about them things. I was just turned into the Sovare when along comes young John North’—— “What was he doing there?’ suddenly asked Mrs. Shrimplin. “T expect he was attending strictly to his own busi- ness,” retorted Mr. Shrimplin, offended by the utter ir- reievancy of the question.
