NO. 338: “Pm Getting Tired of These D. » nials, Says Witness When ci sk e Cummins, author of the resolution under Which the Senate Committee is investi- gating the “lobby” today, added his de- pial to statements of Martin M. Mul- hall, one time lobbyist for the National Assoctation of Manufacturers. In a let- ter to John Kirby, president of the asso- dation, Mulhall told of meeting Senator Cummins in May, 1910, and going to the | room of the late Senator Dolliver, where they talked about a speech to be made in the House by Representative Kendall I have no recollection of seeing Mul- hall or of speaking to him on any sub- ject, but I am not prepared to say that I have not,“ said Senator Cummins. Muthall “Tired of Denials.” „Rut I am certain that I did not have any conversation with him about the speech Kendall was to make on the eight-hour bill; I am certain I never went into Dolliver’s room with him, and I am certain that I never had any con- -yersation with him there.“ Mulhall leaned forward in the witness chair and shouted: am getting tired of these deniels.” “J don’t care whether you're getting tired or not. It makes no difference to me; if you don’t tell the truth, I'm go- ing to deny ft,“ replied Senator Cum- mins. * Under a sharp fire of questions Mulhall testified he did not know where Dolli- ‘Ser's room was. Muna had written in his letter that ‘Be and Senator Cummins retired to a “private rom” to confer. “As a matter of fact,“ observed Sen- _@tor Cummins, the room then occupied “by Senator Dolliver was a single room. 1 don't care to cross-examine this wit- nes® any further.” _ Mulhall declared he had no intention of implying that Senator Cummins had done anything wrong and the Senator replied that he was not making an ex- planation because he believed himself 10 in any way, but because he be- Mulhall’s statements were incor- rect. 8 - “Chased Cummins Over Iowa.“ Mulhall added that the Manufactur- ers’ Association was opposed to Senator Cummins because he was known to fa- vor an eight-hour bill and declared that it the committee investigated the asso- ciation properly it would find that it} had “chased Senator Cummins all over Towa.” Before he got to the Cummins matter, Mulhall told the committee that he, Counsel Emery and others had a “‘se- @ret room” in the basement of the House side of the Capitol, where they conferred and made long-distance tele- phone calls. He said the room had been furnished by Representative McDermott of Illinois. The committee did not go into the subject in detail.

WASHINGTON, July 24.—Henry M. Rose, Assistant Secretary of the Sen- ate acting as reading clerk was struggling through the first pages of the tariff bill yesterday when Senator Gallinger arose. “We have now reached paragraph 24,” said the Senator gravely. “While the Secretary had been doing very well, I hope he will read this clearly and distinctly, “Coal tar products known as anilin ofl and salts and various other ar- ticles,” began Rose, blandly. 1 protest,” seid Senator Gallinger, “he is not reading the complete para- graph. os Rose appealed | to Vice-President Marshall, but the latter was obdurate. Pitching his voice so it reached far outside the Senate Chamber Rose socalled off the various items. 7 “T »xluidine, xyHdin, eumidin, bini- trotoluvl,” he chanted, “binitrobensol. benzidin, tolidin, dianisidin, naphty- lamin, diphefiylamin, benzaldehyde, benzylchloride, intro-benzola and nit - rotoluol, naphtylammsulfoacids—" At this point the gravity of the Senate gave way and members joined the galleries in a burst of laughter. Secretary Rose refused to be stopped. “Naphtolsulfoacias, amidonaphtol- sulfoacids, amidosalicylic acid,” he continued, “binitrochlorbenzol, diami- dostilbendisulfoacid, mentanilic acid, paranitranilin, dimathylanilin.” FROGS EAT RIM FROM — A SLEEPING MAN’S HAT At Least St. Clair County Farm Hand Who Tells of ‘Thousands of 'Em,’ Says They Did. John Smarenski, a farm hand em- ployed in the extreme southwestern part & St. Olair County, was in Belleville and reported that the section of country where he lives has been invaded by frogs. “There are frogs of all size and de- scription,’’ he told acquaintances in a Belleville saloon. The other day I went to sleep under a tree and when I woke up part of the brim of my hat had been eaten. At first I thought a cow had been nibbling at it, but there was no cow in sight and I believe the frogs did it. There are thousands of, em.“ Smarenski says he thinks the extreme heat has driven the frogs forth into new fields. He says frog legs are no longer a delicacy where he works, but have be- come more common than “side meat. BAND CONCERTS TONIGHT| Forest Park, Fischer's Band.

WORKERS STRIKE They Are Locked in Cells and Transfers to Auburn Are to Be Made in Few Days. SHOE OSSINING, N. T., July %.—Another fire at Sing Sing Prison today gave the mutineus convicts a chance for more riotous demonstrations. The blaze started in the clothing shop, and the prison fire brigade extinguished it, after a hard fight, without ouiside aid.. It was the second fire in the prison buildings this ‘week, notwithstanding the fact that the guards had been doubled since $150,000 worth of property was burned there two days ago. Although tt ig generally believed that the fires were started by convicts, the Warden has been unable to place the blame. Trusties Fight Flames, When the fire broke out today in the clothing shop, the whistles were blown and every precaution was taken to guard against the escape of convicts. While the guards and the trusties“ were fighting the flames, more than 1000 pris- oners locked in their cells raised a cho- rus of yells that sounded high above the noise of the alarm. The men at work in the building were marched. out tn good order, and the blaze was extin- guished. Warden Clancy attributes the recent disturbances among the convicts to an order for the transfer of some of them to the State prison at Auburn. Most of the prisoners at Sing Sing come from New York City, and object to being sent upstate, where their friends will find it difficult to visit them. It was this element that led the mu- tiny yesterday which at first promised to develop into an ae attempt at prison delivery. On account of the une the Warden decided today to rid the pris- on of the mot disorderly element. Two hundred of che worst offenders, all seo- ond term men, were kept in their cells today, and tomorrow 6 of them win be sent unaer heavy guard to Auburn. The rest will be transferred a day of two later. The 200 belong to what is known as the “knitting gang.” One Hundred Strike, Locked Up. One hundred men employed in the shoe shop struck this afterrioon, and told ths Warden that they would not work any longer unless the members of the knit- ting gang were released from their cells. . The Warden promptly marched the strikers to their cells and locked them up. The shoe workers hooted, and called to other convicts to join them, but the Warden's threat to lock up anyone who showed signs of disorder was ef- fective in keeping the other convicts at work. Warden Clancy said that if Attorney- General Carmody had not delayed straightening out the tangle relative to the appointment of Prison Superinten- dent Riley, the second term men would have gone to Auburn quietly, and would not haye had a long period to brood over their fancied wrongs. POLICE SAVE ASQUITH FROM A SUFFRAGETTE Miss Key-Jones, Shouting “Scoundrel,” Tries to Pull Premier From Carriage. DONCASTER, England, July 24—An attempt by a militant suffragette to at- tack Premier Asquith while he was on his way today to the town hall of Morley, Yorkshire, to receive the freedom of the city, was frustrated by the police. Miss Key-Jones, a well-known suffrag- ette of this city, sprang onto the step of the Premier's automobile shouting, “Stop torturing women, you scoundrel!’’ and tried to pull Mr. Asquith from his seat, but the police caught hold of her and dragged her away. RATTLESNAKES KILL 3 CHILDREN IN TENNESSEE While Mother Fights Reptiles, Fourth Child Falls in Stream . and Drowns, KNOXVILLE, Tenn., July 2%4.—Three children of Mr. and Mrs. John Cooper of Townsend, Tenn., were fatally bitten by rattlesnakes late yesterday and while Mrs. Cooper fought them, an infant she had placed near the bank of a stream tell into the water and was drowned.

Knapp Has Scheme to Submit Proposition for Sun- day Saloon to Voters, WANTS $1 CONTRIBUTIONS Proposes Open Barrooms, t to 11 P. M. to Keep Money From Going Out of Missouri. John D. Knapp, a baggage checker at Union Station, has organized himself into a committee of one to take the ld off St. Louis. The only aid that Knapp is seeking in his single-handed fight is a contribution of §6000 from saloon keepers, brewers and hotel keepers. This fund, according to Knapp, would be used to finance an initiative and ref- erendum campaign to submit to the voters of the State at the general elec- tion in November, 1914, a proposition to amend the liquor laws to permit saloons to be open 1 p. m. to ll p. m. on Sunday. Picks His Place in League. “I expect to be secretary and general manager of this league, and will have oharge of all the work of getting signa- tures to our petitions to submit this question to a vote of the people,” said Knapp. “I do not intend to let anybody beat me out of that job.”’ Preliminary to launching his campaign Sept. 16, Knapp says he has sent letters to all the brewers and distillers in the State to sound them out on the proposi- tion, and has also had conferences with the hotel managers. He says he will have conferences with the Retail Liquor Dealers’ Association in St. Louis to en- list its financtal co-operation. Knapp has prepared a typewritten prospectus, setting forth his plans in de- tail, which he is mailing afound, and has also had an amendment to the Sunday law drafted by Attorney Charles J. Maurer. Reasons for Hts Effort. Under the caption, “‘My reasons for initiating this ¢o-operative campaign and why I believe it to be a great bene- fit to our city and State,“ are set forth in the prospectus. They are: 1. That thousands of St. Louis people go to East Side cities every Sunday to drink instead of spending their money in St. Louis saloons, the amount of their expenditures being estimated at $50,000 each Sunday. 2. That before the Sunday closing law was enforced, between 10,000 and 15,000 country visitors came to St. Louis every Sunday during the summer, railroad excursions being run to bring them in. 3. That lid clubs will die a natural death if licensed dramshops are permitted to operate on Sundays. 4 That an open Sunday will help St. Louis to attain a million population. Knapp says he is a member of the Missouri Referendum League and aid- ed Sheridan Webster in the organization of the People’s League. SUFFRAGETTES ARRESTED TRYING TO BURN MANSION Glasgow Police Find One With Lighted Match and Another. Hidden in a Chimney. GLASGOW, Scotland, July N. —-TWo suffragettes, Miss Margaret Morrison and a young woman who refused to give her name, were arrested here today as they were about to set fire to a large mansion which was at one time the res- idence of the late Sir John Muir, Lord Provost. The attention of the police was at- tracted to the house this morning, and they entered. Inside they found a woman standing with a match in her hand in front of some piles of combusti- bles which had been banked against the doors. Shortly afterward Miss Morri- son descended a chimney in which she had been hidden. She was covered with soot. A quantity of suffrage literatura was found in the house.

CHICAGO, July %4.—Ned Allis, the young golfer who made a 30-yard hole in one stroke on th? opening day of the golf tournament here, made another re- markable shot today. Allis was 2 up on Champion Evans at the end of the sixth hole of the morning’s 18 On the fourth hole Evans laid his op- ponent’s dead stymie within a few inch- es of the green.

COURTSHIP OF .A MONTH St. Louisan Met Mrs. Haymore at Pass Christian in June; Ceremony Was July 16. St. Louls friends learned Thursday that Dr. Harry McCrindell Johnson of 5567 Waterman avenue was married in Ashe- ville, N. C., July 16, to a Mrs. Haymore of Chattanooga, Tenn. Mrs. Haymore is a divorcee, with two small children. She obtained her decree last March. Her acquaintance with Dr. Johnson began in June at Pass Chris- tian, Miss. Dr. Johnson, who is a former member of the St. Louis Board of Health and a popular physician, obtained a divorce in the fall of 15.1 from Mrs. Sophie Blood Johnson. He obtained the custody of his two boys, who are now 10 and 6 years old. Soon after the divorce the former Mrs. Johnson was married in Sydney, Neb., to Eugene Benoist, member of an old St. Louis family, who had been named in Dr. Johnson’s divorce petition. They since have lived in Colorado Springs. Benoist's admiration for Mrs. John- son became known early in 1911 to mem- bers of his family, who live at 4414 Mc- Fherson avenue. He was then 21 yeats old and his relatives believed that, by sending him away from St. Louis, he could be cured of his infatuation. Mrs. Johnson was several vears older than he, having then been married for nine years. So young Benoist went to Colorado Springs in June, carrying 16 suits of clothes and % fancy waistcoats, and with $50 capital. He got a job as helper in an electric power house at $6 a month. Before the end of the summer, Mrs. Johnson also appeared in Colorado Springs. With a spotted bull pup as her companion she went to living m a cot- tage on Cheyenne Mountain. In September Dr. Johnson filed his sevens suit in St. Louis. It was not em contested. Mrs, Johnson remained’ in lorado Springs and after Benoist’s salary was raised to $5 a month, they were married. GETS VERDICT BECAUSE HE COULDN’T BUY COW Belleville Dairyman Recovers Value of Eight Day’s Milk That He Didn't Get. Magistrate Underwood of Belléville had to resort to mathematics to decide the suit of Joseph Brutto, a dairyman, against Cyril Sobbrey, a farmer. Brutto wanted to buy a cow from Sobbrey. The cow was reputed to give six gallons of milk a day. Brutto had two cows he wanted to sell that pro- duced three gallons a day each. Brutto says he contracted to buy the cow from from Sobbrey and Sobbrey testified he had contracted to sell the cow on condi- tion that he could not get a better price than Brutto offered by a certain date. Sobbrey sold the cow to a butcher, he says, for more than Brutto offered. Brutto says he was so certain of get- ting the cow that he sold the two three- gallon cows and as a result he was un- able to supply milk to his customers. Magistrate Underwood held that Brut- to was entitled to recover at the rate of 30 cents a gallon for milk, six gallons a day for eight days, and gave fudgemant for $14.40 Afterward Brutto was arrested on a warrant sworn to by Sobbrey charging him with disturbing the peace.

NEW YORK, July 4.—Mrs. Horatio G. Winslow, formerly Miss Rosalind Gug- genheim, and later Mrs. Jack Punch, has left her home in St. Louis and come to New York, where she has gone the former Inez Milholland one better and has turned practical Socialist. In sailor’s canvas blouse and sandals of open work sanitary variety, she ped- dles socialistic tracts every Tuesday noon under the Franklin statue, and Wednesday in front of the Subtreasury Building. Mrs. Winslow not only wears the un- form,“ but lives in the heart of the Bast Side in a Social tenement at 5230 Hast Seventy-seventh street, where she enjoys a fine view of Blackwell's Island from her windows on the sixth story. How She Took the Plusge. Mrs. Winslow taughed as she told how she had taken the plunge from society into Socialism. Two years ago she mar- ried Horatio G. Winslow, editor of The Masses, a Socialist publication. She met Winslow at the Rand School, the Socialist headquarters, in Nineteenth street, after a runaway trip to Burope. „My family struggled for the last few years to get me contented with money, clothes and society,.“ said Mrs. Winslow. “They always rebelled against my way of looking at life... I ran away... I went to Europe and remained a year. I ab- sorbed plenty of Socialism over there. I saw it, I breathed it and I lived it. I told them that every woman should [ 80 be allowed to have her own way after she was 18. ‘If she did not want to Aleave home at that age she ought to be sent away. I refused point blank to return home. Well, they got used to having me away. Father realized that the die was cast. So I came. home that is I came to my chosen fleld of work on Manhattan Island. attended the Rand School here, and fell in with my present husband?“ “Present husband?“ I say so advisedly.

I admit that | was a hypocrite because I was not yet Socialist enough to wound my family, so I consented to a ceremony. „But I have one dream.

THAT OF Prix Effort to Give Bride of Chief Blackhawk. St. Louis Address Spoils Her Témper. The wedding morn, which was to see Miss Katie Moonshine become the bride of Chief Blackhawk, found the Indian maiden in a bad humor. Her wrath had been aroused because some overzeslous person in trying to give her a St. Louis address, had confused her with a pale- face Miss Moonshine and there had been recriminations from the paleface tepee. The visible manitestation of her bad humor was that the usually light-heart- ed daughter of chiefs assumed an air of cold stolidity. She sat very straight in her chair at her temporary home, 2732 Washington avenue, refused to answer any questions from strangers—not even tnose about her tribe and her romance— and simply could not de cajoled into smiling.

I could make no headway on trains, Every few hours the train was held up by roving bands who demanded money from the passengers. At length I obtained an automobile and made a 75-mile drive from Hermosillo to Guay- mas, in Sonora, and there took a boat to Mazatlan in Sinaloa. At Mazatlan I boarded a ship for San Francisco. I have been more than three months on my way to St. Louis, and I consider myself lucky to have escaped at all. “At Mazatlan I found several hundred Americans who had been robbed of ev- erything they had. Bands of robbers are moving from place to place through- out the entire country.“ KNOCKOUT DROPS KILL RICHEST SAILOR IN NAVY Owner of Quarter Million Pre- ferred the Bluejacket Life— Met Death in Saloon. PHILADELPHIA, July 24.—It devel- oped today that Wilbur Martin of the battleship Connecticut, who was killed ia a tenderloin saloon here Wednes- day with: “knockout” drops, probably was the wealthiest bluejacket in the American navy. Martin came from Anderson, S. C., and last March re- celved from the estate of his mother $250, 000. The proof of his identity was disclosed by papers in his possession, which showed he was the owner of much real estate, as well as of stocks, and bonds. His wealth was known to some of the sailors of his own ship. He was but A. and despite the appeals ot his family he insisted, even after he had attained his fortune, he would serve out his enlistment, He intimated he might enlist again. Pressure was brought to bear at Washington to have him rejected, but officials informed his relatives they were powerless.

The burned town appeared to be deserted, and a great deal of shouting had to be resorted to before some women issued from the ruins.

The secret marriage. of Miss Pauline Pomorsk of 43808 Nebraska avenue, her quarrel with her mother and separation from her husband of three months were revealed to the public Thursday through the finding of a suicide note which she lost on the street. In an effort to clear up the mystery of the note, a Post-Dispatch reporter learned that since April 22 the young woman has been the bride of Franklin Wice of 4826 Fountain avenue, a clerk in the offices of the American Brake Co., at 1932 North Broadway. The note was found in front of Kie- fer’s summer garden, 4026 South Grand avenue, by Mrs. William Heptner of 4245 South Thirty-seventh street. It read: Mother Forgive me, as it is not my fault. Good-by forever. Get my trunk at 4027 McPherson avenue and pray for me, as I know I am lost forever. What is there for me in this world without him? Mamma, he told me what kind of a girl I am, but you know better. If I had only gone to the convent. Forgive your only daughter. Good-by. Love to Frank. Tell him all. PAULINE. She Explains Mystery. The police learned that for a week the writer of the note had lived at the Mar- quette rooming house at 4027 McPherson avenue and had left there last Tuesday. It was learned that on leaving the Mar- quette she had her trunk sent to 4308 Nebraska avenue. She was found there Thursday and explained the mystery of the suicide note. She said that she and Wice, whom she had known a year, were married by a Justice of the Peace, April 22, but never lived together. After the ceremony they went to their homes, agreeing to keep the marriage a secret a year The bride’s mother saw her daughter’s name in the published list of marriage, licenses, but the bride told her it was some one else of the same name. Ten days ago Mrs. Pomorsk found the marriage certificate in a book in which the bride had hidden it. There was a quarrel, in which Mrs. Pomorsk ordered the young woman to leave home. The bride went to the Marquette and engaged a room, using the assumed name Florence Foster. She and her young husband had quar- reled, she said, and when he learned she was at the rooming house, he called her on the telephone frequently, and in- sisted that she return his letters. She, in turn, demanded that he return her photographs. Mrs. Alice Brownfield, proprietor of the Marquette, objected to these tele- phone quarrels, and the bride decided to leave. Bought Poison and Wrote Note. Last Monday night, she said, she pur- chased bichloride of mercury and car- bolic acid, and wrote the suicide note. The next day she started for her moth- er's home on Nebraska avenue, intend- ing to slip the note under the door. When she arrived there, her mother met her, and told her she was forgiven, and might return home. When she looked for the note, intending to destroy it, she found she had lost it. She thinks it blew away while she was on a street car. Now that her mother has forgiven her, she says she has no further thought of suicide. DEMURRER FILED IN SUIT TO END COLE TRUSTEESHIP Son of Former Mayor Dissipates Reports That Case Would Be Settled Out of Court. Recent announcements that the legal squabble among the heirs to the estate of the late Nathan C. Cole was about to be adjusted out of court were dis- counted, Thursday, when Nathan Cole Jr. filed a demurrer to the suit to end the Nathan Cole trusteeship. The sult originally was brought by Richard N. Cole and Hallie Cole Hebert against other heirs, the Nathan Cole Investment Co, and F. N. Judson, trus- tee. Subsequently Dr. Ernest H. Cole, Rebecca L. Cole, Herman C. Cole and Amedee B. Cole, all named defendants, filed a request to be allowed to join in the petition of the plaintiffs. The demurrer declares the plaintiffs have no cause of action, that the stat- utory five years’ limitation has expired and that the plaintiffs have neglected to assert their rights and cannot now invoke them in the courts. It was filed by Judson, Green and Henry, atttorneys for the defense. Nathan Cole was a former Mayor of St. Léuls. He formed the Nathan Cole Investment Co., to“ take over his hold- ings, and named Judson as trustee. - $464,655,630 IN BANKS Missouri Institutions Show $20,529,784 Gain in Year.

Sheriff Asks for Troops to Quell Strike Riots. CALUMDET, Mich., July 24.—Strike vio- lence, occasioned by yesterday’s walk- out of copper miners in this district, grew beyond control of Sheriff Crune today and he wired Gov. Ferris, asking militia companies were ordered to hold themselves in readiness for service, pending word from the Governor, who, it is understood, is on his way to Al- pena. The chief attack of strikers today was directed against the Calumet and Hecla properties. Shortly before noon 300 men, armed with steel drills, clubs and stones, a few firing revolvers, divested of their stars all deputies stationed at No. 2 Conglomerate Shaft of the company. The strikers moved to the Hecla branch mine and repeated their tactics. Sev- eral men were badly beaten and sent te hospitals, The strikers also visited all surface plants of the companies affected and closed them. George Danblom, aged 30, was so badly beaten that he may die. George Uns- worth, chief engineer at the Superior Mine House, was cut about the throat i that State troops be dispatched.

SON’S FORGETFULNESS SAVES MOTHER’S LIFE Returns to Get Telephone Num- ber and Finds Mother Had Taken Acid by Mistake. The forgetfulness of Michael Alch, 17 years old, of 4546 Cook avenue, enabled him to save the life of his mother, Mrs. Cecelia Alch, Wednesday afternoon. He went to a store to call up a butcher, but forgot the telephome number. He went back home to ask his mother the number and found her unconscious in the bathroom. A glass which had contained carbolic acid lay by Mrs. Alch’s side. The youth administered eggs and milk as an anti- dote and telephoned to a drug store for a doctor. Four physicians soon arrived. but the woman was out of danger when they got there, Mrs. Alch is the wife of Dr. George H. Alch. Eight years ago she was stricken with paralysis and has been an invalid part of the time since. She told re- latives that she went to a medicine chest to get a bottle containing syrup of hypophosphate, a strengthening tonic she had been using, and by mistake got the bottle of carbolic-acid, which is similar in color.

COW BALKS, BLOCKS TRAFFIC IN BOSTON Animal Stares at City Hall as Thousands Try in Vain to Make Her Move. BOSTON, July 24.—A cow balked in front of the City Hall yesterday and the machinery of government as well as street traffic stood still while sev- eral thousand citizens offered advice as to how to make the animal move when the perspiring driver failed. Police reserves hurried out to break the jam of people, tried in vain to move the cow. A man who said he was “from the country,” tried cajol- ery, then he, too, yanked at the rope. A well-dressed woman objected to this “cruelty.” A young man laughed at her objections, the woman called on a policeman to have him arrested and the young man asked the wo- man’s arrest because her hat pins were too long. Meanwhile City Hall employes abandoned business and returned the stare of cow. Mayor Fitzgerald ap- peared at a window and suggested, “Make her think you want her to stay, and then she'll move.” It failed. Finally an electric ambulance was called and the cow, still staring Vacantly, was hoisted aboard bodily and forwarded to her destination. “GERMANS” RAID COAST; LAND TROOPS IN ENGLAND Enemy“ Occupies Towns After Maneuver Battle in British Waters. LONDON, July 24.— Germans, rep- resented by the Red Fleet“ in the an- nual maneuvers of the British Navy, in progress in British waters, raided the east coast of Great Britain this morning and landed troops in the neighborhood of the Humber. After the warships, escorting the con- voy, had engaged and defeated the de- fending fleet, four transports laden with soldiers ran the blockade and upset the cherished belief of the British Admiralty that the British Isles were invulnerable. Vice-Admira] Sir John R. Jellicoe commanded the fleet representing the enemy. The towns of Grimsby, Glee- thorpes and Immingham were occupled by the enemy, who routed the territorial forces. a La Salle Friday Bargain.

FAVORS PUTTING AE STANDARD OIL MEN IN JAIL Attorney William H. Gray Says That Recent Dissolution Or- der Failed to Dissolve. FOR SEPARATE OWNERSHIP Companies Are Not Competitors When Owned by Same Per- sons, He Declares. William H. Gray of Houston, Tex., the attorney whose book, The Rule of Reason,“ charged the Standard Oil Co. with violation of the dissolution decree and made him a prominent figure in subsequent prosecutions of the trust, is in St. Louis today. He was asked how in his opinion the Federal Government could effectively dissolve the Oil Trust, break the oil monopoly and restore competitive condi- tions in that trade throughout the Unit- ed States. “So long as the Federal Government permits common ownership of the sev- eral companies composing the Standard Oil group it will not be able to force them to compete with each other,“ Gray said. He Would Send Em to Jall. “Three steps should be taken. The Government should bring Standard Oil’s leaders into the Federal court here in St. Louis and punish them for contempt of the dissolution decree by sending them to prison and appointing receivers for their properties. That is the only step which will ever make them understand that they are not above the law. »The Government should bring new suits against the Oil Trust for new violations of the Sherman act, committed in Pennsylvania, California, Texas and other states since the dissolution de- cree was entered. “The Government should end common ownership of the Oil Trust’s companies by allotting ownership of one company to one group of the Standard stockhold- ers, another to another group, and so on, until no stockholder had a dollar’s worth of interest in more than one of the companies. These men should then be restrained from acquiring ownership in any competing company. “If this were done, the Standard Oil Co. of New York would want a part of the profitable trade of the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey and would go over into New Jersey after it—which it never yet has done. The Standard Oil Co. of Indiana would want a part of the profit- able trade of the Standard’s Oklahoma and Texas subsidiaries, and would go after it. And so on down the line. There would be réal competition between com- panies, none of which would be strong enough to overawe and dominate all the others, as the Standard Oil group of companies, all of them controlled -from 26 Broadway, does today in defiance of the United States Government. “Prices to consumers would go down; the trade would become a safe one for honest business men to enter; the reign of trust terrorism would end. A new field of opportunity for enterprising men with moderate capital would be opened and the dragon within that * would be slain. Prosecution Has Broken Down. The Government’s prosecution of the Oil Trust has broken down; has result- ed in a flasco. But I do not believe President Wilson will be content to leave Ir rest there. I believe that just as quickly as he has put through the tariff and currency bills he will take up a vig- orous enforcement of the Sherman act against those trusts which, have been nominally dissolved, but which are actu- ally as strong and merciless as they ever were. Indeed, this action may come earlier than I anticipate. The Department of Justice is conducting an investigation now, and, it may prove the Post-Dis- patch called the turn on future events when it predicted Standard Oil offend- ers would be haled into the Federal Court for contempt at an early day.“ Independents Diapleased With tlement of Case. HOUSTON, Tex., July 23.—The inde- pendent oil companies are not. satis- fied with the settlement of the receiver- ship suit against the Magnolia Petro- leum Co., the Standard Oil Trust’s Texas subsidiary, on terms so favorable to the trust. They say they have final- ly reached the conclusion that there is no lasting safety for independent competitors of the trust under State anti-trust laws. Nothing short of a vigorous application of the Federal an- ti-trust law, they gay, will open the way for genuine competition in the pro- duction and marketing of oils in tie United States. And they are finally convinced, they declare, that nothing short of the n- prisonment of one or more of the Stand- ard Oil captains, and the appointment of receivers for Standard Oil proper- ties, to operate them lawfully, will con- vince the Oil Trust magnates that the anti-trust laws were ever meant to ap- ply tq them. Thus far, they say, the Oil Trust -lead- ers have been atte to settle with the laws of states and nation by paying what to them were merely nominal fines. Encouraged by their apparent immunity from any real punishment, they have continued flagrantly to violate the dissolution decree of the United States courts, and are still violating it, as was teveale“ in the settlement of this latest Texali cage. For example, the independénts say, the 11 marketing companies of the Standard Oil Trust, alleged by the trust to be “independent” and competitive“ Set- since the dissolution“ of the trust un- der Wickersham's friendly supervision late last year, still carefully abstain from selling. any oils in each other's territory as defined by the trust agree- ment of 1882. — Today and every day Post-Dispatch | Wants are full of chances for getting > ee ease eon ae veteran HE THINKS OIL TRUST HASN’T BEEN DISSOLVED WILLIAM H. GRAY FARM FOR SANITARIUM — — — Hospital Board Plans to Submit Proposition to Voters. The purchase of a 500-acre farm for inmates of the sanitarium on which vegetables used in all city institutions could be raised, is planned by the Hos- pital Board. The Municipal Assembly will be asked to submit at the free bridge bond election the proposition of issuing bonds amounting to $260,000 for this purpose, according to present plans. The procedure was outlined Wednes- day at the meeting of the board. A report by Hospital Commissioner Shutt showed that similar farms in other large cities had proved successful. The St. Louis Sanitarium controls 12 acres of land, which is not considered enough to provide work and recreation for in- mates, Dr. Shutt’s figures showed the average farm in other cities is 440 acres. TAKE THIS MAN'S ADVICE TRY THE GREAT KIDNEY REMEDY. It Always gives me pleasure to rec- ommend anything that is right and so I' feel it my duty to herald the praises of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. For years I was troubled with kid- ney disease and it was so intense that I was bedridden for days at a time. I gave up all hope and doctors for miles around gave me no help. Inei- dentally I tried several patent reme- dies and at last- tried Swamp-Root. From the first it gave me relief and it was no time before I was able to be up and around and now I am per- fectly well and able to work as I used to before my terrible sickness.

sr. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. TRESTO 1 HIGHWAYMAN East St. Louisan Strikes Robber Who Springs From Weeds and Holds Pistol Against Him. C. E. Bayes of 1115 North Ninth street, Bast St. Louis, was shot and seriously wounded Wednesday night when he tried to beat off a highwayman who was holding a pisto)’s muzzle against his abdomen. The bullet ranged below vital organs and doctors say Bayers probably will get well. The attempted robbery took place on a residence street, with eight or nine persons visible within hail, The first in- timation others had that something was wrong was when they heard a shot and @aw the two robbers running away. Bayes, a carpenter, was crossing the etreet toward a vacant lot at Eighth atreet and Exchange avenue, two blocks from his home, at 8:30 p. m., when two men, one wearing a mask, sprang up from the weeds and ordered him to hold up his hands. Because he knew virtually everybody fn the neighborhood, Bayes thought it was a joke. The men pointed their fingers at him, as he thought, to make him think they had revolvers. He laughingly told them to go as far as they liked. THREE LITTLE GIRLS WHO GAVE CARNIVAL FOR PURE MILK FUND 6 shoved the muzzle of a revolver against his body, Bayes realized his mistake. With his left hand he grabbed the wrist that held the pistol and with his right struck the bandit in the face. The blow was not heavy enough td daze the highwayman, who stepped back a pace and pulled the trigger. Bayes fell and the two ran toward railroad yards and got away. Before they start- ed Bayes heard one of them call the other Rich.“ Neighbors ran to the wounded man’s assistance. After emergency treat- ment he was taken home. His physician, Dr. R. S. Stanton, said Thursday the chances are for a speedy recovery. — Assorted Fruit Cream Patties, 18e Ib, Cogswell’s Friday Candy Bargain. 515 N. 6th. — — — — — ae 9 309 Washington Av..

UDGING from the noise emanating from the meeting places of oars- men, we are.inclined to think the cor- rect pronunciation of the word r-a-w- i-n-g is with the short O, as in fowl. and it very likely will—the countries this year represented in the contest will furnish a majority in favor of the clay courts, England, Canada and United States will be lined up for the grass, while Germany, France, Belgium, Aus- tralia and South Africa will be against it. | From every point of good tennis the clay court is superior to its more pleas- ing turf competitor. On clay better ac- tion is obtainable on nsarly every stroke used; while the speed of a game is 20 per cent better on clay than on grass. It's harder on the eyes and on the feet—that’s the chief objection to the dirt court. Out for the Dough. Y, COBB is just an ordinary, common clay mortal, like all of us. We arrive at this conclusion from the fol- lowing news headline: Ty Cobb Eager for Change.“ — | Redskin Bender Puts an End to especially noticeable in the preliminary practice yesterday that not a single ground ball was fielded cleanly by the St. Louis team. Bad Field Spoils Piay. This presaged a similar exhibition’ of fumbles in the playing of the game, which Brooklyn had no trouble winning by a score of 7 to 2. Time and again on safe hits to the outfleld which usually are fielded clean- ly 99 times in a hundred, the outfielder would make something of a mess of things. As a rule it was only a case of a ball bounding a few feet away, just enough to let the runner get the extra base on a single. The most serious was Oakes’ fumble of Tingling's hit in the seventh. It was a solid single, but as it came to Oakes it failed to bound true, hit the edge of his mitt and rolled almost to the fence and before it was fielded back Yingling was on third. The ground around short field also seems to be had, judging from the number of bobbles made there. In Tuesday's game; Huggins’ drives twice went between’ Fisher’s legs. In neither case did his hands even tip the ball, though he was set solid for the stop.

Curley Brown is mainiy responsible for the fact that the Montgomery olub is pacing the field in the Southern League, while John Powell has won six straight games for Low isville and the Colonels are in second place, pretty close to Milwaukee, the leader. Brooklyn has won eight and lost one game to the Cardinals so far this season. Incidentally Earl Yingling, a second rate southpaw, has beaten Hug’s men three times. Although the Cards can’t beat the Superbas they find it comparatively easy to trim the leaders, having won five out of 11 games from the Giants. New York has taken eight out of 10 from the Pirates, this campaign. Winning extra-inning games is the acid test for a ball club. So far this season the Giants have played 14 extra-round battles.

ACCUSED POLKICE ARE Rough Handling Described and One Operator Says That She Was Kicked. Striking girl operators of the Bell} Telephone Co. appeared before a special investigating committee of the House of Delegates Wednesday afternoon and testified that employes had been dis- charged because they joined a union and that strike pickets had been roughly handled by policemen. It was also asserted that the company had influenced policemen on strike duty by giving them meals at the va- rious exchanges. Mrs. Sarah Spraggon of the Women's Trades Union League, one of the organ- wers of the Telephone Operators’ Union, | | said: “Since the strike commenced I have been in the neighborhood of several of the exchanges. I have seen policemen coming from the exchange buildings wiping their mouths and picking their teeth. That was sufficient evidence for me that the company was feeding them.’ Girl Says She Was Kicked. Miss Sybil Hudson of 3138 St. Vincent avenue, testified that while she was acting as a strike picket in front of the Grand Exchange May 15, a policeman with a badge numbered 1894 pushed her off the sidewalk and kicked her. Miss Grace Gleason, a striking oper- ator, told the committee of her arrest by Police Sergeant N. 914 Tuesday even- ing. Miss Gleason said she had followed a working operator on a Hodiamont car and tried to persuade her to join the strikers. The operator left the car at Tenth street and complained to the Ser- geant that Miss Gleason was bothering her. Although the operator said she did not wish to make any formal charge]! against Miss Gleason, the Sergeant ar- rested Miss Gleason. Her trial is set for Aug. 4in the Municipal Police Court. Miss Hudson and other strikers said that policemen frequently had shoved girl pickets and used force in clearing sidewalks in front of the exchanges. Miss Lillian Miller, formerly president and now secretary-treasurer’ of the op- erators’ union, testified thet a police- man stationed at the Sidney exchange told her that the company was feeding the policemen on strike duty. Questioned, Then Discharged, Miss Mazie. Julian testified that she was employed for a year as operator in the Webster Groves exchange. When the union was formed, she said, a chief operator asked what the striking men employes paid her to join the union. She answered that they paid her noth- ing. She was then discharged. Miss Nellle Carter told the committee she had worked for the company 10 years and was supervisor at the Tyler exchange. In the rest room one day she told some of the other girls she thought the union was a good thing. The next day, she said, the chief operator called and expressed surprise that she should have said this. For a week, she said, she remained on duty but found that no work was given to her. When she used the telephone, she said, someone always listened in. At the end of the week she was dis- charged. Miss Mazie Forest, who was an opera- tor five years at the Main exchange testified that an official of the company told her it was a disgrace to join the union. Later when she refused to sign a pledge that she would not join she was discharged. Miss Clara Dill of 2881 South Thirteenth street testified that she was notified of her discharge by a traffic official named Mason the morning after he had seen her come from a union meeting. He told her her work was not satisfactory. She reminded him that only a short time be- fore he had commended her work, and he replied: O, well. You know what you're fired for.“ Sisters Among Those Fired. Miss Lilian Cunningham said she and her sister, Margaret, were discharged after Margaret had been falsely accused of being a leader in the strike move- ment. W. D. Smith, secretary of the Flectric- al Workers’ Union testified that on May 4 at the beginning of the movement to organize the girl operators, W. J. Hiss, manager of the company said: We will nip this thing in the bud.“ Hiss has maintained that operators were dischurged for incompetency and not because of their connection with a. union. f ——— Maryland Hotel Seeks Striking Waiters, The Maryland Hotel Co. applied for an injunction in the Circuit Court Wednesday against members to Enjoin ing persons who would go places, Walter H.

Postponement of the St. Louis historical pageant celebrating the one hundred and fiftieth anni- versary of the founding of St. Louis in 1764 is so completely in harmony with the Post-Dis- patch’s suggestion with regard to making it a notable national event that we do not criticise.

It is not within the power of Secretary Bryan, Piesident Wilson, the Congress nor all three The administration can determine the first step— that is the significant and decisive act. After that precedent and the inexorable law of imperial expansion work for continual extension. Power : feeds on accession, Imperial hunger is insatiable. The hostility of Latin American representatives in Washington to the Nicaraguan policy and their fear of its extension to other countries of Central and South America are justified. They, as the weaker peoples, see more clearly than we the ort this first step. It is never difficult for the Btrong country to find excuse for interfer- ence in the affairs of the weak country. The appearance of consent is easily obtained. The color of justification is always in the eye of the greedy strong. Conditions in Latin America offer as strong arguments in favor of extension to other countries as of inaugurating the policy in Nicaragua. The logic of the Monroe doctrine involves a “hands off” policy on our part as a corollary of our enforcing a “hands off” policy on the part ot Europe.

The decree of ouster against the Missouri re- finery of the Standard Oil Co. was modified by the Supreme Court on a showing creating the pre- sumption that it had reformed all its monopoly practices. The refinery is permitted to continue business within the State on good behavior. Is the Missouri price of 17 cents a gallon for the cheapest grade of gasoline a good-behavior price? In view of the light afforded from Texas as to the actual cost of producing a gallon of gasoline, could not the company do a little more reforming in monopoly’s prices? = = & = ae The Mole of Wall Street has just died, and the Wolf of Wall Street recently entertained Congress.

They assert that it is commonly made from food once set before guests and paid for, though rejected. Lazarus-at-the-Gates is not sure any more of the scraps and crumbs that re- main from the tables of generous diners. They are manufactured into club sandwiches, the wait- ers state, and sold at a la carte rates appalling to a Lazarus. A similar charge against peach cobbler could not be more disquieting. An aroused public demands the facts. To assail the club :andwich is to assail one of the chiefest after-theater delicatessen dainties. To place the piquant club sandwich along with hash, Hungarian stew and mince pie among the things that must be taken on faith means the disappearance of a wholesome alterna- tive to lobster and cold birds from the menus of Great White Ways. The intricacy of the formula for true club sand- wich makes it peculiarly susceptible to libel. Diners have the detection of imposition in their own hands.’ After inspection of its dill pickle, its cold chicken, its bacon and its toast slices, no Wiley is needed to determine whether a house- wife’s handout to a back-door tramp is being charged for on the bill. If an unjust and shocking slander has been made in the heat of controversy, it is the duty of the waiters to give the club sand- wich an immunity bath—in fresh, wholesome mayonnaise. In this case “open-mouth” sabotage has gone the limit. = = — * Farmhands’ refusal to hire out to John L.

When John Wanamaker was Postmaster-Gen- eral, in the Harrison administration, he recom- mended the création of a parcel post service. He said there were only five reason to be urged against it. Those reasons were the five big express companies, These “reasons,” represented in the Senate by Platt and Depew of New York and some other Senators subject to railroad control, were strong enough to prevent the United States from estab- lishing a parcel post for a generation after other progressive nations had it. Platt and Depew and most !f not all of the Sen- ators who represented the “five reasons” have been retired to private life, but the.opposition to | nave BOY STATESMANSHIP. | nA IIE D LEI LOO AED OO EAM INO a I I thank you ee on behalf of the humane cause for the strong and strikingly illustrated ar- ticle in your magazine section of July 13 entitled “Send Criminals to Vivisection Table Instead of Gallows!” It shows what humane people have long contended, that animal vivisection does not prevent, but is leading directly to, medical de- mand for human vivisection, beginning with the most helpless class, but ending where? Lessen mercy and pity in one direction, animal or human, and you lessen them all. Instead of there being difficulty in obtaining medical executioners, one can see plainly, from the eager approval of most of those interviewed, that they would simply „jump at the chance” ef such an interesting and profitable office. Unly a few years ago medical men tried hard to secure a law allowing them to vivisect crim- inals to death in the State of Ohio. The bill came dangerously near passing before the Humane So- ciety could wake up the people to the real sig- nificance of the barbarous measure. One is tempt- ed to ask who is the most dangerous criminal, the ignorant man, who, in sudden passion, slays one of his fellows, or the “scientist,” -who seeks to destroy the humane sentiment of the public to the extent of turning over our unfortunates to him, to die as the poor animals are dying, by inches, under the knife, or the slow agony of cancer or other induced disease?

Happy is the old couple that fs childless, They escape ingratitude. OCTOGENARIAN, Find Out What Caused Your Illness. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Sufferer from sick headaches must remember that diseases do not fall on people as rain falls from the sky. Nearly all diseases come from something we have done. In your case I am convinced your sick headaches come from some- thing you have done. You may have eaten too much animal food; you may have smoked, or sometimes have drank beer or wine or whisky. Any one of these things may cause sick head- aches. I\ myself am no physician, but I know from observing my fellow creatures that too many men and women violate the laws of nature and suffer for it. I am now. 89 years old. I never have a headache or tooth ache. I have all my own teeth as sound as ever. I never eat: animal food. I am a vegetarian. I drink no tea or coffee, never smoke, never have in my life drank one drop of beer of wine or whisky. A r Banging and the , Clanging of the Bell.’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, ~— Bang, bang! Clang, clang! At 6 a. m. the church bells begin hammering their metal sides as though some rivalry of noise existed between them. They keep up this thunder of ringing from nine to 45 times each, with only a short inter- val of time between, until 8 o’clock in the morn- ing. After many hours of wakefulness a few poor sufferers pray for peace. A. Me. The Full Crew Law. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. General Office Clerk in his letter a few days ago takes the Wall street side of the argument over the full-crew law. Brother Clerk, do you really know from experience anything about the operation of freight trains? With 28 years’ ex- perience I believe I ought to be a competent wit- ness and I say to you that the men who man the trains are very badly in need of this law. Gov. Major, in his message concerning the full-crew law, called attention to the fact that in 1904 one trainman in every 11 on the roads in the United States was killed or injured. In 1911 this propor- tion became one in every eight. What better ar- gument could be produced than these figures? With only two brakemen, the long trains cannot be inspected at every stop, as the rear man must flag and the head man stay near the front end of train in order to cut off engine at water tank and coal chutes. With an additional man on the long trains reasonable inspection will be possi- blo at every stop, thereby avoiding many of the wrecks now so frequently happening, due to lack of inspection. The companies would, in reality, make money by placing an additional man on the long trains, as well as the public profiting by it, as many delays and tie-ups would be avoided; also much overtime eliminated. It is safe to say the people of Missouri will vote in favor of the full-crew law and you should join the proces- sion. EXPERIENCE. * What Is Under the Tad?“ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, The readable and truthful article in Sunday’s issue of your paper by Mr. Putnam calling St. Louis, next to Glasgow, the world’s largest vil- lage, is not exaggerated. Much of this condition is due, as he says, to the “lid.” The masses of the French, German and Austria-Hungarian cities find Sunday a day of rest and entertainment in the true sense. There is no “lid” to harass them or breed hypocrisy. Indeed, if such an act were attempted, it would evoke violence and revolu- tion. The “lid” is a farce and a failure. people will admit this. The club and the private home are now the Sunday saloons. Ask grocers in the tenement and West End districts as to their beer and wine deliveries on Saturdays, Ask the Union Station, bridge, suburban car lines and river ferry attaches as to the thousands that leave us on Sunday. The “lid” is worse than a farce; it is a crime. E. A. NOONAN. Singers of Sorts! To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There are many kinds of singing. But only two good reasons for it. One, the song of the artist, is to please, to make others happy; the other is the song of the joyous soul, the spontaneous glad warbling of the happy-hearted. There are other reasons for singing, but not good ones. The amateur who loves his own voice has not even a Food excuse for raising it. This kind is as plentiful as weeds around here.

What with the new swim- ming pools in the parks and the hot weather, we seem to have hit the water like so many ducks. The interesting feature of the craze is that almost nobody knows how to swim. There are many persons who did know, but after being out of the water for years they find that swimming, too, has progressed, and they know almost noth- ing about it. Thus we see the man who formerly swam the river practicing swimming across a pool. The old strokes are no more. He could get across the pool with them, and more, but people would laugh at him. He must swim the crawl or the trudgeon, which have been brought from Australia. These are the thing. Their effectiveness is amazing. Young boys and girls shoot around in the water like goldfish. In the crawl they lay flat on top of the water, turn- ing their faces every five strokes to breathe. The old-timer has to learn to do that. It is very hard. Every now and then he gets a mouthful of water and has to be rescued by the life guards. This humiliates him. He curses the Australians, Nor is this all. When we shall have mastered the crawl and the trudgeon, some other stroke will come in. We shall have to learn that. It will save us a great deal of trouble and vexation here- after to drown now. Let's drown, Young Mr. Chappell, for whom the White Sox paid $25,000, has justified the three oughts, but he doesn't seem to be able to do anything for the twenty-five, It was a little warmer yesierday, and Senator Bristow kicked about the new parcel post order. —— — Maybe Photographer Fischer was mis- taken about having taken bichloride of mercury. j ve aa 2 len 2 THE REAL CURRENCY PROBLEM. | — END OF PATERSON STRIKE. From the New York Evening Post. The scarcely noticed breakdown of the Paterson strike marks the collapse of @ movement that has signally failed to win popular sympathy. From the mo- ment it was clear that the 20,000 workers had accepted I. W. W., and not union, leadership, the publice lost interest. A writer in the Survey has pointed out that the most violent utterances have come from those who wished to purge Paterson of the syndicalistg. The whole outcry, of course, has been directed against the organisers, and not the rank and file, But. the impressive fact is that the principle recognized as at isgue so dig- nified the manufacturers’ position that the only possible ending of the strike was total failure. All that is now lack- ing to justify the opinion that the work- ers shared few of their leaders’ views, is a repudiation by them of Elizabeth Gurley Flynn's statement that it the strikers have gone back to work, it is che not to make marketable silk.” DRUNKARDS GETTING SCARCER. From the San Francisco Bulletin. Nearly half the United States is ary. The old slave states, embracing fully one-quarter of the population of the United States, have with great unani- mity outlawed the liquor traffic. All through the border states, the North- west and the West there are Saharas continually advancing their frontiers Public opinion is frowning down the liquor habit in a way that strikes home, It is operating in a sort of cold-blooded way through business. Time was when everyone dallied more or less frankly with the enemy. The lawyer, the do- tor, the banker and the general man of affairs began the day with the | part matutinal cocktail and wasn’t entirely out of touch during his waking hours That is all changed.

I am quite sure I don’t like you well enough to marry you, As you won't be just friends, there was no course open to me but to ask you to stay away.” She sighed as she looked at him, for Bob Murray was a well-favored, manly fellow. Then she turned her head sharp Ty and gazed out on the overlasting prairies with their scorched crops dfooping in the heat. “As I was saying,” went on Mr. Mur- ray imperturbably, “your whimsical Ideas that we were not made for each other in nowise interferes with my in- tention of showing you where you err. ‘The shoulder nearest him shrugge4 expressively, the visible gear turned wrathily pink.

With one accord Murray and Miss Mackay also jumped,to their feet. The @ause of the excitement needed no ex- plana tory words. ' Coming after them, exactly down the” track, whirling, lifting, dipping, was a black, funnel-shaped cloud. It was ig away, but nearing rapidly.

But you are too proud to give in! And now—and you'll never get the chance!” With a start the girl looked out at the rear door again, recalled to their danger, and the sight she saw sent her , Dlindly grouping for shelter, her superb nerve at last shattered. As Murray put both arms around! her and shut her eyes against his shoulder, there was both desperation and victory in the expression. For the ugly roar of the thing pur- suing ‘them was drowning out all other sounds; the whole world outside the rocking, throbbing train had grown dim and black. “Tell me,” he whispered to ber com- mandingly. Her trembling hand crept round his neck, “Oh, yes, yes!” she sobbed. “T was wicked—why—why didn’t I tell you be- fore? And now Don't look!” Murray cried sharply as she raised her head. He shut his own eyes and waited the bare instant for the end of all things. There was the sudden silence of utter terror in the reeling car full of doomed human beings. N But nothing happened, absolutely nothing. When Murray opened his eyes again, wonderingly, the whirling cloud was gone, At a rise in the track it had leaped, swerved, and taken a sharp tangent, abandoning the prey just in its clutch and roaring its way south across the open country. The engine stopped the next minute at the little station of Honey Creek, and.crew and passengers staggered out into the open air with dazed white faces. Murray and Louise Mackay stood watching the disappearance of the cy- clone in the distance. Then he looked at her, and as he remembered and mar- veled at his happiness, she turned to- wards him a face on which there was a mingling of tremulous thankfulness, exasperation and hepless surrender. “I believe,” she said, half laughing, half crying, as their hands met, “I believe, Robert, the whole afafir was a sham you arranged on purpose, and pressed a dutton or something wher. you were done with it!’ “Of course!” agreed the irrepresaibie Mr. Murray.

GROWING business is at all times profitable to take up. Photography is one of these The demands for good photo- graphic work today are steadily increas- ing. The line of moving pictures alone requires daily the services of many ablo photographers, both men and women, competent to do good work. The enthusiastic amateur photo- grapher can hardly make a mistake in entering this field with a view of mak- ing it his life work. In order to do that successfully he should possess (be- sides a love for the work) artistic per- eye, and should be patient and painstaking. The latter is of great importance in working out details and in retouching. The best way, usually, to learn the art of photography is to apprentice oneself to a successful photographer. An earnest desire to learn the work in all of its details will here find its reward. Some photographers pay learners dur- ing their period of study, while others do not. It is always advisable to take up some special branch of photography after the regular routine of the work has been mastered. There are several important branches to choose from—portrait photo- graphy, scenic photography, interior photography and others. To specialize in only one of these fields of photo- graphy is often the wisest course ‘to pursue, for few can master successfully all of them. There is no special system of pay for photographers. The profession is rather loosely organized, and there is much diversity in Income, hours of work, and other conditions, Usually the pay ranges from $15 to $25 per week. Good, competent workers can earn much more. The successful photographer with a good business head will do very well to go into business for himself. Here, particularly, his own efforts and abil- ity will count in bringing the returns. I can personally give an instance of a young man with natural ability in this line who started working at $8 per week in a studio. After 12 years of hard work. he has developed a business that pays him more today ¢hen $10,000 an- nually. To the amateur photographer, there- fore, as well as to others who have ability in this direction, photography offers a good field full of many possi- . 1 3 * 0 7 * K 2 — * 2 1 N nd. imper- 4 ° 2 — * 8 * Bes 2 tae 1. nk 5 1 5 . 2 ¥ | + " | 6 *. ra Something — om re- mina me that my boy is growing MOVING PICTURES SEARCH FOR HER LEARN ONE THING EVEXY DAY 4 34.— Hawaiian Islands. ? HE Hawalian Islands were an- nexed to the United States in July, 1898, at the urgent request of the inhabitants. People live on seven of the islands. One, which was once inhabited, is now deserted; and there are 12 smaller islands not lived upon. All the islands taken together are not as large as the State of New Jersey. The Hawalian Islands are volcanic and the decaying lava makes a wonderfully rich soll. As there is much rain there, things grow as if by magic The prin- cipal. crop is sugar cane, but there are also enormous quantities of pineapples and bananas there. Some of the volcanoé¢s on the islands are not dead. Kilauea, on the island of Hawall, is the largest active volcano in the world. The crater is about nine miles around and in the center is a great lake of molten lava, which rises and falls like water. At night this red-hot, quivering mass is one of the most won- derful sights in the world. At present there are only about 30,000 native Hawaiians left out of nearly 180,000. Other inhabitants are Ameri- eans, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, etc. A La Sherlock H.

She was taken from her home in Revere, Mass. The child’s mother notified the police and efforts were made to trace the child by means of circulars.

This plan was adopted, and the little girl and her father, who is accused of kidnaping her, have been shown time and again in cities East, West, North and South. , ** His Literal Wife.

For instance, the girl who lives at home is not supposed to ask young men to call on her. She does this sometimes, I know, but it is against the laws of etiquette. On the other hand, it is absolutely proper for the girl's mother to ask young men to call. And though, according to the gen- eral custom in this country, she is not supposed to remain with the young people during the entire even- ing, she should be presnt at first, and with her added social experience may be of great help in breaking the ice. Wedding Presnts. W. writes: “Should a present be „sent to a newly married couple after receiving an announcement of their wedding? No invitation was re- ceived.” An announcement is not necessarily followed by a gift. It all depends upon how well you know the persons in the case. Gifts should only be made when the heart dictates them. „I'm Sorry!“ PERSON in the wrong only gets deeper in when he refuses tg say “I’m sorry.“ Some sorts of pride are excel- lent and not to be criticised. But they do not include the stupid, self-righteous variety which prompts its possessor never to express repentance. Such pride is admirable in neither man nor woman. If two young persons quarrel, it’s ninety-nine chances out of a hundred that each is in some measure to blame. And you know the old adage, “Two it takes to make a quarrel; one can al- ways end it.“ The one, of course, is he or she who first apologizes. The other party to the disagreement is almost al- ways ashamed not to go half way and shoulder a share of the blame. And then it’s clear weather, with two more happy persons in the world. Take the Initiative. B. writes: “I am corresponding ® with a young lady in another state whom I have never seen. She asks me to send her my picture. Should I be the first to do this, or should I wait for one from her?” I think you ought not to expect the young lady to 2 the initiative.

AMP life at Lake Tahoe with Georgia E—— had been so exhil- arating that after we came east we opened our camp atgUpper Saranac Lake. Several other families had homes near us and among ourselves and our guests ve formed quite an independent colony. There were enough to have golf and ten- nis tournaments, motor boat races, mas- querades, progressive whist and shoot- ing contests. One of the institutions of our life up there was afternoon tea at the G— 8. This 5 o’clock collation was different from any other I had ever partaken of. Crisp maids served frothy milk from huge pitchers, fruit-ices from punch bowls, coffee and tea from steaming urns, and delicious sandwiches and cakes ef every variety. One afternoon we all steamed in, hungry and warm, from our exercises to this general meeting place and Raymond R-—, a friend of Fay W——’s, was presented to me. I had met Raymond before at dances and he had always flattered me by ask- ing me for more dances than I could give him. He possessed the qualifications which can make a summer so ideal and which every girl hopes to find in her summer catch. Raymond was a champion tennis play- er and helped me to improve my game. In paddling, rowing and swimming his superior skill lent assistance to my fem- inine shortcomings. It seemed that our romance could end only in one way—in matrimony. The only blot on the scutcheon was Ray- mond’s jealous disposition. Papa came up toward the end of the month and brought with him Edgar L—, a very handsome cnap whom I had gone about with in town. When Raymond saw Edgar he accused me of having deliberately inviting him because I had a secret admiration for him. I as- sured him I had not known Edgar was coming. And in rather impolite lan- guage Raymond told me he did not be- lieve me. The next day I played tennis with Edgar and rode with him in the after- noon. At night mamma was giving a dinner dance at our house and Raymond tried to assume a very indifferent, irre- sponsible attitude toward me. Afterward one of the men told me that Raymond had taken six cocktails before dinner, and during dinner and the dance I noticed that he drank a great deal of champagne. He danced every dance with Evelyn L—, whom he had always before ig- nored, and incorporated steps into his dancing which were highly original and unnecessary. The next morning he telephoned and asked to be allowed to see me. I frigid- ly refused to see him. He then dis- patched his valet with a note saying he had not slept all night and that he could not rest until he had explained his behavior. His note was followed by another telephone message and by this time my curiosity as to what he him to call. He said that when I went out riding with Edgar he had wandered in the woods to a gypsy encampment and one of the gypsies had told him his fortune. Among other things she had told him that he was in love with a girl who did not care for him. zie theught of my riding with Edgar; and his jealousy was so violent that he was almost desperate. And that was why he had drunk so much and had danced all evening with — another girl. He expected me to forgive him, but I decided that I could never be happy with a man of his disposition. No hus- band was certainly preferable to an Othello, Marse’ Page Goes to Co’te.

Did his wife call him Henrik formally, harshly—or did she tone it down to Hen, Henny, Harry, Rik or Hank? And Bismarck? Did the Furstin ever call him Ottchen? Or Otilly? Both favorites at the Ger- man hearth! And Tolstoi? By Russian custom he was Leo Nikalajevitch to his friends—but was he ever Lee or Nicky to the Countess? What was Grant to his wife?
