It was also said by friends of both the Governor and his wife today that during the campaign Sulzer gave Mrs. Sulzer $900 for personal expenses. She is said to have told her confidantes that this sum was invested with others in the stock market. The Governor’s friends say this accounts for the $900 payment to Boyer, Griswold & Co., mention of which was made in the testimony be-, fore the Frawley committee. Since his occupancy of the executive office Gov. Sulzer has declared he has been subjected to continual espionage. Spies invaded his household in New York before his inauguration, friends declare, and followed him to Albany. Many private documents belonging both to the Governor and Mrs. Sulzer have disappeared, among them being, accord- ing to Sulzer’s friends, many which could be used in substantiation of her story concerning her alleged use of the Governor’s campaign funds.

It is that Mrs. Sulzer has issued a statement to the public bedring vitally on these charges. I believe this House cannot without satisfying itself go further with this matter. It is newly discovered evi- dence, and in view of these facts I move that further consideration of this resolution be postponed until tomor- row.” Tammany Weader Levy answered: “The information that comes from the gentleman from Albany is no surprise to most of the mémbers of the House. I knew of that statement of Mrs. Sul- zer’s, but I feel strongly of the opinion that it should not act as a sudden stay of these proceedings. I hope that the motion to postpone these proceedings until tomorrow will not prevail.’’ “What is this information that con- cerns Mrs. Sulzer?” asked an up-State Assemblyman. Hisses From Galleries. “It is as I understand it,” replied Levy, “that Mrs. Sulzer has admitted that she forged Mr. Sulzer’s name to certain checks.” Hinman asked for a slow roll call on his motion. There were shouts accom- Hoods Sarsaparilla Acts directly and peculiarly on the blood; purifies, enriches and revitalizes it, and in this way builds up the whole system. Take it. Get it today, Sulzers Courted by Postcard for 5 Years CHICAGO, Aug. 13. RS. WILLIAM SULZER, wife Mi of the Governor of New York, who, in an effort to prevent his impeachment, shoul- dered the responsibility for the stock transactions of which he is accused, is a former Chicago wom- an. She entered the Presbyterian Hospital here 15 years ago and left it three years later a graduate nurse. Mrs. Sulzer left this city 10 years ago and went to New York, where she met the Governor, then a Con- gressman, at a dinner. They cor- responded, mostly on post cards, according to her statement, for five years, and then married. She is considered a woman of great charm, is a splendid cook and personally directs the affairs of her household. Her maiden name was Rodelheim. i panied by hisses from the galleries. “No,” the Speaker ruled. The motion was lost. Hinman then asked for a reconsideration of the motion, and asked for a roll call. The motion to postpone the proceedings was lost by 49 to 73 and debate was resumed. Along towards midnight, when the rumors could not be held down longer, a close friend of Gov. Sulzer, Samuel Bell Thomas, a New York lawyer, who has been assisting daily in Sulzer’s war on the bosses, was sent to the execu- tive mansion to ask Sulzer regarding the report that Mrs. Sulzer had made a “‘confession’’ to Senator Palmer. “I can make no _ statement about that,’’ Thomas said the Governor told him. “Mrs. Sulzer is upstairs in bed and cannot be seen. She had a fall and suffered a slight hurt. Tell the: news- paper men that they must see Senator Palmer for any statement that is to be made.”’ Senator Palmer was told that the Gov- ernor had referred the newspaper men to him, but he would make no State- ment. Verge of a Breakdown. If the statement of Senators and mem- bers of the Assembly are to be accept- ed as true, Mrs. Sulzer has been on the verge of a nervous breakdown for more than 48 hours. She has borne up bravely through all the trying days of the past several weeks while the Fraw- ley Committee was getting closer and closer to the trail that eventually led to the uncovering of the Sulzer Wall street accounts. : , ‘There was a report current in the capital that Mrs. Sulzer suffered a nervous collapse Monday night. One of the Governor's friends, who spent the night at the Executive Mansion, con- firmed this report. He said that Mrs. Sulzer had quickly recovered, however. Senator James J. Frawley, chairman of the investigating committee that pre- the indictment upon which Gov. : official head is demanded, rapped hesitatingly earty yesterday at the door leading from the main corridor into the Governor’s private office. The door opened slightly at first and was then thrown back to admit the burly form of the Tammany Senator. In usual li form ¢: the tablet sellet Senmtaba oS . one entered, the door closing quietly behind him. For 10 minutes Frawley faced the hos- tile gathering. Investigation Planned. At the very moment that he and the Governor were exchanging words weighted with vital impogt to both, John A. Hennesey and former United States Attorney Henry A. Wise were collabo- rating over an application to the court designed to pave the way for an investi- gation by Hennesey of Frawley’s polit- ical and business past. The secret visit of Frawley to the Governor provoked this remark from one of the Tammany men: “Frawley now finds himself in the po- sition of the boy who threw a stone at the side of a mountain and started an avalanche that engulfed himself.’ Various interpretations of this remark were attempted, and all were predicated on the announcement by Hennessey that before he got through investigating he would “get Frawley.” Only two men saw Frawley enter and depart from the Governor’s private of- fice. They were detectives who for a week have been standing guard at the main entrance to the executive chamber like plain-clothes policemen on station- ary post. Apprehensive of the espionage of this pair, Frawley, as he walked down the corridor toward the elevator, glanced to see if he would be shadowed. The dete@tives stuck to their posts. Amazement was expressed by more than one member of the Legislature when it was learned that Senator Fraw- ley had called on the Governor. No teason could be assigned for the Tam- many Senator’s visit by his friends in the Legislature. MORGENTHAU TO TURKEY WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—While the White House declined to authorize any announcement today it is known that friends of Henry Morgenthau, chair. man of the Finance Committee of «ha President’s campaign, have brought word that Morgenthau will accept the ambassadorship to Turkey and his nom- ination will be sent to the Senate soon - SO Ee ee LA LLL LE ISULZER CHARGES INCLUDE PERJURY, BRIBERY, LARCENY EES SE OE — IS. Eight Distinct Allegations Presented in Arraign- ment of Executive— About 4000 Words in the Official Document. —_—_— ALBANY. N.Y, Aug. 13.—The official document presenting the Assembly's charges against Gov. Sulzer names eight counts on which he 1s to be tried be- fore the impeachment tribunal. The charges contain about 4000 words. Most of the allegations concern the use of campaign contributions and the Governor's report of the amount of the contributions. It is charged that Sul- zer has been guilty of bribery, larceny and perjury among other offenses. The articles are in substance as fol- lows: 1. That Gov. Sulzer, in filing his statement of campaign expenses, set forth that his entire receipts were $460, and his expenditures $7724; that this statement “was false and was intended by him to be false and an evasion and violation of the stat- utes of the State;” that his list of receipts failed to include 11 specific contributions, ranging in amount from $100 to $2500; that the Gover- nor’s false statement, made “wrong- fnully, wilfully and _ corruptly,” caused “great scandal and reproach of the Governor of the State of New York, 2. That Gov. Sulzer attached to his statement of campaign expensese an affidavit declaring that the state- ment was in all respects “A full and detailed statement of all moneys re- ceived or contributed or expended by him directly: or indirectly.” That this affidavit, duly “Subscribed and sworn to by said William Sulzer, was false and was corruptly made by him,” and that he was “Guilty of- willful and corrupt perjury. 3. That Gov. Sulzer, “unmindful of the duties of his office and in viola- tion of his oath of office, was guilty of corrupt conduct in his cffice as Governor and was guilty of bribing witnesses." The specific charge is that while the Frawley committee was investigating the Governors - Campaign accounts, he “fraudulently induced" three witnesses (his cam- paign manager, a personal friend and a stock broker), “‘to withhold their testimony from said committee,” and that in so doing he “acted corruptly and was guilty of a felony.” 4. That the Governor was guilty of | *“‘guppressing of the State penal law. The specific Governor appropriated campaign con- tributions to his own use, “‘and used the same, or a large part thereof, in speculating in stocks with brokers operating on the New York Stock Exchange and thereby stole such checks and was guilty of larceny.” Among the contributors mentioned are: Jacob H. Schiff, $2500; Abram L Elkus, $500; William F. McCombs, $500; Henry Morgenthau, $1000; John Lynn, $600; Theodore W. Myers, $100; Lyman A. Spalding, $100; Ed- ward F. O’Dwyer, $100; John W. Cox, $300; Frank V. Strauss company, $1000, and John T. Dooling, $100, and cash aggregating $32,850. 7. That Gov. Sulzer promised and threatened to use the authority and influence of his office for the pur- pose of affecting the vote or political action of certain public officers, in- cluding two Assemblymen. & That he corruptly used his au- thority as Governor to affect the prices of securities on the New York Stock Exchange, in some of which he was speculating, upon a margin or otherwise, recommending and press- ing for passage legislation affecting the business of the exchange “And ——__—-. te In A Special Display of White Petticoats Our stock of white Petti- coats can readily meet your every demand, as it is at all times complete and the — range is satisfactory. ote these: Cambric Petticoat with flounce of eyelet embroidery.

S. V’ord That B-itain, France and Germany Recognized Huerta Because of H. L. Wilson’s . Speech En- courages President Wilson. By Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, Aug. 13.—John Lind, President Wilson's personal representa- tive and adviser to the American Em- bassy, Was received in an unofficial ca- pacity yesterday afternoon by Frederico Gamboa, Mexican Minister of Foreign Affairs. The visit of Lind consumed only a few minutes of Senor Gamboa’s time, and few persons knew that ft had been made. The time selected for the cal was when few visitors were at the For- eign Office, and a disposition was shown in the department to cloak it with secrecy. No further steps were taken by Lind to advance the object of his mission to Mexico, and it is believed little will de- velop in the situation before Thursday. Lind is in communication with Wash- _$ngton, and it is not improbable that his movements will be governed by instruc- tions from there, based upon the prog- ress he is able to make here. ‘In view of President Huerta’s . note of last week, issued through the act- ing Foreign Minister, stating that Mr. Lind would not be received officialiy unless he brought credentials and also official recognition of the Huerta Gov- ernment, great significance attaches to his reception by Huerta’s Cabinet chief, even unofficially. By some persons his reception is taken as an indication of the disposition of President Huerta to learn the character of the message Lind bears. There is an unconfirmed rumor in circulation that steps already have been taken to bring about a con- ference between President Huerta and Lind. Reception Merely Courtesy. It is the opinion of Mexicans gener- ally that even if President Huerta should receive Lind it would be mere'y te show him a personal courtesy, aad would not alter the stand the Mexican executive has taken in relation to for- eign interference in the republic. it is pointed out also that even should President Huerta be disposed to listen to suggestions there remains the rebel element as a bar to the restoration of Mr. Lind was presented to Senor Gamboa by Nelson O'Shaughnessy, Charge d’Affaires of the American em- bassy, in the character of a private cit- izen. The conversation between the Mcex- jean Cabinet officer and Lind was en- tirely informal, both carefully avoid- ing the subject of politics or the mis- sion which is personally intfusted to Lind by President Wilson. Two official dispatches concerning the defeat of the rebels at Torreon and the lifting of the siege there say 3200 rebels were killed. The reports say a large number of those classed as killed were executed. The third day of the fighting there Was an uprising in the town involving a number of. local officials. The troops, however, gained the upper hand and wiped out the mob with machine guns and rifle fire and by arresting and put- ting to death a large number of persons. e mob used dynamite bombs against e troops. Dynamite Train Deralled. Outside the city tee rebels rédoubled their efforts to capture the place and at one time sent a dynamite-laden train against it. The train, however, was de- railed some distance out from the town and the Government forces were saved from harth. The reports say the rebels have aban- doned their attack on Torreon and are moving southward and westward toward the states of Zacatecas and Durango. The advices from Torreon were sent by Gen. Bravo, commander cf the Fed- - erals in that district, under date of Sat- urday. Gen. Bravo places the Federal loss at 200. The report says that the rebel strength at the beginning of the action was 10,000 or 12,000 men. The rail- roads approaching Torreon are out of commission. A,letter sent from Tor- reon the last day of the fighting tells how the rebels advanced into the city and their horsemen dashed to within 60 yards of the Federal lines and attempted to throw ropes around the guns with the - intention of dragging them away. The Government is silent with regard to the notice issued by the Japanese Government that Gen. Felix Diaz would not be received as Mexico's special en- vay to thank Japan for having partici- pated in the Mexican centennial. WASHINGTON SEES SUCCESS FOR LIND |GIRL WHO WANTS “SISTER” AND MOTHER WHO OBJECTS TO REMAIN WITH MRS. ROZELLA SMITH. that the first step in the program of the American Government to throw its in- fluence in the direction of a quiet and peaceful settlement of the revolution- ary troubles had succeeded. The incident, however, will not change the procedure previously outlined to Lind before he left Washington. He will submit all his representations to Charge O’Shaughnessy, who will trans- mit them, in accordance with diplomatic proprieties, to the Mexican Foreign Min- ister. It has been left entirely to Lind’s discretion upon whom to call. While there is nothing in Lind’s instructions which would prevent hint from calling on Provisonal President Huerta, it 18 not regarded that he would do so unless the latter had indicated his desire to receive the unofficial envoy. It became known that Japan, which had hitherto recognized the Huerta Gov- ernment, virtually had decided not to receive Gen. Felix Diaz, special Ambas- sador, to express thanks for the par- ticipation by Japan in Mexico’s centen- nial a few years ago. Likewise the statement of the British Government explaining that it, as well as Germany and France, had recognized the Huerta Government after Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson had made a congratulatory speech to President Huerta, encouraged administration officials to believe that the foreign powers would give their moral support to the efforts of Presi- dent Wilson, through constitutional processes, to influence the restoration of peace in Mexico. Within the last 48 hours the Navy Department has started two light draft vessels for Vera Cruz to aid in picking up Americans along the east coast of Mexico desiring to return home. The navy now has on the Eastern Mexican coast the battleships Louisiana, Mich- igan and New Hampshire, the cruiser Wheeling and collier Neptune at Vera Cruz and the battleship South Carolina at Tampico, and on the west coast the armored cruiser Pittsburg, supply ship Glacier and collier Justin at Guaymas and the auxiliary cruiser Buffalo and gunboat Yorktown at Topolobampo. The battleship South Dakota is en route to Guaymas and the cruiser Tacoma and gunboat Nashville to Vera Cruz. ”-_ De La Berra, Heary Clews’ Dinner Guest, Toasts President Wilson. NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—Francisco de la Barra, Mexican Ambassador, on his way to France, was the guest yes- terday at a luncheon given by Henry Clews as president of the American Peace and Arbitration League.

AMARY CATHERINE RADERU... MOTHER SUES FOR CHILD SHE GAVE AWAY 7 YEARS Ai Girl Prefers to Remain With ‘Sister,’? Daughter of Her Foster Mother. Eight-year-old Mary Catherine Rader of 4035 North Newstead avenue saw her mother, Mrs. Rogella Smith of Coun- cil Bluffs, Io... a few days ago, for the first time since infancy. Until then the child had supposed that Mrs. E. H. Young, who died last January, was her mother, and that Mrs. Ida Reger, with whom she lived at the Newstead avenue house, was her sister. The news that the “strange lady” was her mother seemed to mean little to the child. “She said she preferred to remain with “Sister Ida.’’ As Mrs. Reger wishes her to remain, the mother brought a habeas corpus suit to recover her daugh- ter. Chila Gtven Away Years Ago. Mrs. Smith filed her suit Tuesday, naming Mrs. Reger and her husband, Loyal W. Reger, as defendants. The child was given to Mrs. Young, seven years ago by her mother, who was at that time about to marry again. Mrs. Smith visited her daughter at Mrs. Young’s home, four years ago, but the little girl was not told at that time that the visitor was her mother. Wher she was 6 years old, Mary Cath- erine went with her foster-mother to live at the home of Mrs.‘ Young's daughter, Mrs. Reger. The Regers came to love the child, and after Mrs. Young died last winter, they took her as their own. They have placed her in the Holy Rosary Parish school. Child Makes Inquiries. Mrs. Heger said Wednesday that she would try to prove to the Court that she was better fitted to care for the child than the mother. She said that, when Mrs. Smith appeared at the Reger house, last Sunday, she demanded im- mediate possession of the child, saying she would pay her board bills. Her words caused the child to make inquiries, Mrs. Reger then told her the truth about her parentage. When the child showed no desire to pe with her mother. Mrs. Reger an- unced her determination to keep Soe ~ until she should grow up. Cockroaches Rats and Mice Nothing is more disagreeable than a home infested with vermin.

Tt, os Stearns’ Electric Paste Co, Chicago, U1 : | | WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 13, nn " POLICEMAN WODES ON TRAFFIC DUTY, WINS RIGH BRIDE}. George E. Dennis Engaged to Divorced Wife of Dancing Master, Charles Davis. A courtship carried on at one of the busiest stfeet corners In St. Louis has led to the announcement that Traffic Policeman George E. Dennis soon is to marry Mrs. Mary Davis of 2333 Palm street, wealthy divorced wife of Charles P. Davis, dancing master. Dennis for the last nine months hag been stationed at Eighteenth and Lo- cust streets, the main east and west automobile thoroughfare of downtown St. Louis. Hundreds of machines and three lines of street cars cross this traf- fic point. Each courtship session was necessar- ily brief, but several times a week Mrs. Davis, driving her own big touring car, would stop, if. but for an instant, to talk with the busy traffic policeman. Beyond saying that it was true that he and Mrs. Davis were engaged to marry, Policeman Dennis, when seen by re porters, refused to discuss the novel courtship. At Mrs. Davis’ home it was said she was out of town. Met Her When Sent to Her Home. Dennis first met Mrs. Davis about two years ago, when he was sent to her home to investigate a burglary. They ‘| did not see each other again until about two months ago, when Mrs. Davis, driv- ing her touring car on Locust street, recognized the traffic man at Highteenth street and stopped and spoke to him. After the acquaintance had been thus renewed, Mrs. Davis laughingly told Dennis that since she saw him last she had become a “grass widow.’ She ob- tained a divorce May 7 last. Mrs. Davis was surprised when she learned that Dennis lived at 3616 Bailey avenue, not far from her home. There | Was not much chance for him to call on her of evenings as his work kept him on duty until 10 p. m. So most of the meetings were at his busy traffic cor- ner. Mrs. Davis and her husband con- ducted dancing schools in St. Louts for many yeras. In her divorce petition, she alleged that Davis deserted her and that he had associated with another woman. Davis Deeded Preperty to Her. In his reply Davis said that in No- vember, 1910, he deeded to Mrs. Davis $20,000 worth of real estate so that it would be exempt from any claims of his children by a former marriage. At that time, he said, there was an agree- ment she would not divorce him. They separated in March, 1911. Friends of Dennis say they have been informed that the wedding is to be Sept. 13. The romance of Dennis and Mrs. Davis recalis the secret wedding two years ago of Miss Giulia Morosini of New York and Arthur M. Werner who, when a traffic policeman, saved her life in a runaway. Miss Morosini was one of New York’s richest hefresses and was called ‘‘the best-dressed woman in Amer- ica.."" $11.50, Cleveland and Return Via Clover Leaf Route. NATIONAL GUARD HAS SURPLUS OF GENERALS Spencer and Lechtman Put on Unassigned List to Make Room for Others. The: National Guard of Missouri had too many Generals, and the problem which this fact created was solved only by placing Brigadier-Generals E. J. Spencer of St. Louis and Cusil Lecht- man of Kansas City on the ‘“‘unas- signed” list. Or rather, the list was created for them, as unassigned Briga- diers are a luxury which the State’s mi- litia has not enjoyed in recent years. At the same time Major-General H. Cc. Clark of Butler was named Brigadier- General, in command of the National Guard of Missouri. Back in the Hadley administration Frank M. Rumbold, then Adjutant-Gen- eral, recommended to the Governor that a division of Missouri troops be created. A division consists of nine infantry reg- iments of 800 men each, one cavalry reg- iment and artillery, engineer, hospitai and signal corps In carrying out this recommendation Gov. Hadley elevated Cols. Spencer and Lechtman to the rank of Brigadier- General. When arrangements were made with the War Department for this year’s State encampment, to be held at Nevada Aug. 23-31, it was found that the strength of the division was not up to Government standards, and that it would have to be reduced to a brigade. Accordingly, Spencer and Lechtman were not deprived of their rank, but were left without definite duties. - —————EEEEEE EE ——$—$——$———— RESINOL STOPS — SKIN TORMENTS How This Wonderful Ointment Ends Itching and Heals Skin Eruptions.

By Assoctated SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13.—Marsha Warringten was the State’s first wit- ness today in the trial of Maury IL Diggs, charged with violation of the Mann act. She continued her story of how she, in company of Lola Norris, Drew Caminetti and Diggs, slipped away fmom Sacramento te Reno one night in hope of avoiding local notoriety ‘and stirred up-a scandal which has de- veloped into an affair of nation-wide interest. The customary hundreds gathered in the corridors before United States Dis- trict Judge Van Fieet’s court and trailed in a long waiting line into the street. It wae not alone for Miss Warrington that the crowd took its slender chance of admission. The next witness ready to be called was Lela Norris. Her story in essentials, it was expected, would be much like that of Miss Warrington, al- though the latter testified Diggs was the more active in some of the quar- tet’s preparations than Caminetti, with whom the Norris girl fled. “What did Caminetti say?” asked an attorney when Miss Warrington was explaining how the men had labora? to persuade the girls to leave home. “He didn’t say much,” she replied. “He just agreed.”’ Knew Men Were Married. Marsha Warrington picked her way through a hushed courtroom when she took the stand yesterday. The girl, who is a decidedly pretty blonde, said in be- ginning her testimony that she was 2 years old and lived with her father and stepmother. Her mother died when she was 5 years old. “IT have known Maury I. Diggs since last September, and we were very close friends,’’ she continued. “Two weeks before we left for Reno, while Drew Caminetti, Miss Norris and I were rid- ing with Diggs in his machine he told me there was a scandal about to be published about the four of’ us and that we would have to leave town. I was surprised, but he said he would have to go. “Miss Norris was told, and Caminetti joined Diggs in urging that we leave im- mediately. They told us that we would be arrested and subjected to the third degree.”’ “Did you know that Diggs and Cami- netti were married at that time?’ “Yes, and Miss Norris knew it, too. Diggs told me his relations with his wife were unpleasant; that he was un- happy and wanted to leave town. He said he had an affection for me—cared for me more than he did for his wife. I believed him. “He manifested affection for me; he kissed me; discussed marriage with me and said he would get a divorce and marry me. Caminetti told Lola the same thing.’’ “Did you have an affection for him?” Had Affection for Him. “Yes, I had a strong affection for him. He discussed leaving town togeth- er several times, when the four of us were on automobile trips, and in Diggs’ office. The men told us Diggs’ father and Caminetti’s father were going to prosecute us two, and that Diggs Sr. was giving an attorney named Harris large sums of money to keep the story out of the papers. They said there would be warrants for us and that we would be given the third degree. “We said we couldn’t go. I said I couldn’t go away from father, that it would kill him. Diggs said it would all come out in the papers any way, and that my father would know sooner or later, and that we had better go. “Miss Norris told them it would kill her mother, and Caminetti and Diggs told us that our parents would soon get over it. They kept urging us to go im- mediately. “On Saturday, March 8 Diggs returned from San Francisco from a business trip. He called Lola, Caminetti and me to a cafe, told us his father was coming up from Berkley the following Monday to put Caminetti in jail and have us prose- cuted. He saki that ne nad cleaned up his business and that we would have to leave right away. We protested, but after three or four hours consented to gO. Decided to Go to Reno, “The next day we met again, and the men finally decided on Reno, after con- sidering Salt Lake City and Los An- geles. We tried to back out. We said we would just as soon stay and take chances on the scandal. They told us we couldn't back out. “That night we met in a cafe. Cami- netti went out to get some money. We went to the railroad station and while there a train for Reno was pulling out. 1 told Diggs I would stay in Sacramento. He said he cared too much for me, and I would have to go. “Caminetti didn’t come with § the money, and we missed that train. Later we met Caminetti at the cafe an) at midnight we went to the station again. When we got there Diggs told us to wait where we were and he went over and bought four tickets. “We got into a Pullman car and Diggs enga,ed a drawing room. He paid th Pullman conductor. Miss Norris and Camfmnetti took the upper berth and Diggs and I had the lower. “We arrived at Reno the next day —the 10th—at about noon, and went wo a cafe for something to eat.” journment until today. Diggs and his counsel were 10 min- utes late appearing, and in reply to apologies, the Court admonished them it must not occur again or he would commit them into the custody of the Sheriff.

Wilbur George Brown, 16 years old, who knows no other parents than his wealthy foster-father and foster-moth- er, George Warren Brown and Mrs. Bettie Bofinger Brown of # Portland place, became legally their son and heir by the filing of articles of adoption in the Recorder’s office at Clayton Tues- day. George W. Brown is president of the Brown Shoe Co. A Post-Dispatch reporter saw the boy at the Portland place home, soon after the filing of the papers. He had been told of the action, and said that it was no surprise to him, as for several years he had known that Mr. and Mrs. Brown were‘ not his real parents. Has Good Home; “That’s Enough.” “I don't know who my own parents were,” he remarked. “I have never been told, and I have never tried to find out. I have the best parents a boy could have in this home, and I am in a good school, and that is enough for me.”’ The adoption papers did not name the boy’s parents. The document stated only that the boy had been with the Browns since he was 2 years old, and had known no other home It set forth that, “for a consideration of $1,” Mr. and Mrs. Brown agreed to assume the obligations of parents toward him. The Browns have a summer home at Crescent, St. Louis County, and as the boy is away at school during the win- ter, most of his time with them is spent at the country home. Wilbur George attends the Boys’ Pre- patory School at Tarrytown, N. Y., and is fitting for a university course. His foster-father said the adoption was a step which he and Mrs. Brown long had been determined on, but which had been put off from time to time. He declined to give further informa- tion. Brown is a leading layman of the Methodist Church, as his brother, the late Alanson D. Brown, was in the Bap- tist church. Hé and Mrs. Brown have been interested in the Methodist Or- phans’ Home on Maryland avenue, and in other charities, and Mrs. Brown has been prominent in Y. W. C. A. work. Their neighbors and close friends have known that George Wilbur was an adopted son, but many of their ac- quaintances supposed he was their own child. DANISH EXPLORERS CROSS GREENLAND Capt.

Dr. Mulford is the physician at the Industrial School .and for the clinic at the Boyle Center pure milk station maintained by the St. Louis Pure Milk Commission.

The Grey Eagle will leave the foot of Olive street at 8 p. m. sharp next Tues- day evening, and will return about 10:30 p. m. A feature of the evening’s en- tertainment on the boat will be the mu- sic furnished by the Salem M. E. Glee Club, composed of about 40 voices. The club will serenade the excursionists from the decks and will add much to the enjoyment of the moonlight ride so popular with St. Louls young people. Tickets are placed at the moderate price of 2% cents each. Special prizes, ranging from one to 10 free tickets, are offered to those selling the most tick- ets.

By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Aug. 13,—President Wilson issued a statement before the Democratic House caucus resumed con- sideration of the administration bill to- day, announcing that he believed it not advisable to amend the measure at present with provisions for rural cred- its, but to postpone that phase of bank- ing reform until the December segsion, ‘when the Government commission now studying. the subject in Europe will have reported. Representative A. Mitchell Palmer, chairman of the caucus, conferred with the President and was acquainted with the contents of the statement through which it was hoped to persuade so- called insurgent Democrats to abandon their fight for agricultural currency. The President said: “Again and again during the discus- sion of the currency bill it has been urged that specia] provision should be made in it for the facilitation of such credits ag the farmers of the country most stand in need of—agricultural cred- it as distinguished from ordinary’ com- mercial and industrial credfts. Separate Bill Needed. “Such proposals were not adopted be- cause such credits could be only imper- fectly provided for in such a measure. The scope and character of the bill, its immediate and chief purpose, could not be made to reach as far as the spe- cial interests of the farmer require. “Special machinery and a distinct sys- tem of banking must be provided for if rural credits are to be successfully and adequately supplied. A Govern- ment commission is now in Purope studying the interesting and highly suc- cessful methods which have been em- ployed in several countries of the Old World and its report will be made to Congress at a regular session next win- ter. “It is confidently to be expected that the Congress will at that ses- sion, act upon the recommendations of that report and establish a com- plete and adequate system of rural credits. “There is no subject more import- ant to the welfare or the industrial development of the United States; there is no reform in which I would myself feel it a greater honor or privilege to take part, because I should feel that it was a service to the whole country of the first magni- tude and significance. It should have accompanied and gone hand in hand with the reform of our banking and currency system if we had been ready to act wisely and with full knowledge of what we were about. He promises Relief. “There has been too little Federal legislation framed to serve the farmer directly and with a deliberate adjust- ment that is real needs. We long ago fell into the habit of assuming that the farmers of America enjoyed such an ini- mense natural advantage over the farm- ers of the rest of the world, were so intelligent and so enterprising and so at ease upon the incomparable solls of our great continent that they could feed the world and prosper, no matter what handicap they carried, no matter what disadvantage, whether of the law or of natural circumstances they la- bored under. “We have not exaggerated their ca- pacity or their opportunity, but we have neglected to analyze the burdensome disadvantages from which they were suffering and have too often failed to remove them when we did see what they were. “Our farmers must havo means af- forded them of handling their financial needs, easily and inexpensively. They should be furnished these facilities be- fore their enterprises languish, not aft- erward. “And they will be. This is our next great task and duty. Not only is a Government commission about to report which is charged with apprising the Congress of the best methods yet em- ployed in this matter, but the Depart- entire stock of recently established Women’s Apparel specialty house.

IGNORED; CLAYTON Gov. - O'Neal Hol Power to Select Man—Majority Again in Danger. By Associated Press. M ONTGOMERY, Ala., Aug. 13.—Con- gressman D. Clayton has been named O’Neal as United States Sena- tor, to fill the vacancy caused by the by Gov. death of Senator Joseph F.. Johnston. Clayton’s commission was delivered to him shortly after 5 p. m. yesterday, in Clayton has start- || ed to Washington, but he will not resign the Governor's office. his seat in the House until he is seated in the Senate. Gov. O’Neal issued a statement, say- ing: “I do not believe it ever was ‘con- templated that any state should be de- prived of its right of equal representa- tion in the Senate, and I am of the jiopinion that the seventeenth amenda- | ment does not apply, so far ag filling vacancies is concerned, to the term of any Senator chosen before the seven- li teenth amendment became a: part of the Conatitution. “T am not unmindful that an important i | constitutional question is presented, but unless the proviso that the amendment shall not be construed so as to affect the election or term of any Senator, was A iintended to except from the operation fiof the seventeenth amendment, not only the eleetions but the terms of the Sen- ators chosen before it became valid, I can see no other field of operation for the language employed.”’ Democratic Senators Had Urged O’Neal to Call Special Session. WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—Surprise was expressed by Democratic leaders of the Senate when they learned that: Gov. O’ Neal had disregarded their advice and had appointed Representative Henry D. Clayton to succeed the late Senator Johnston,. without express authority from the Alabama Legislature. “It is my opinion that Mr. Clayton will not be seated,’’ said Senator Over- man, acting chairman of the Judiciary Committee. ““‘The mrembers of the Ju- diciary Committee and a majority of the lawyers of the Senate were of the opinion that the seventeenth amendment w the Constitution does not give the Governor authority to appoint a Sena- tor except under expressed directions from the Legislature.”’ Senator Kern had sent a second tele- gram to the Governor, urging him to call a special session of the Legisla- ture to grant him authority to name a Senator ad interim. Senator Simmons also had sent a message emphasizing the Importance of Senator Kern’s re- quest. Both Senators pointed out that it was important that there should be no possibility of a contest. Clayton is chairman of the House Ju- diclary Committee and has served 16 years in Congress. Democratic leaders, having lost a vote through the death of Senator Johnston, now are worried further by the con- tinued absence, on account of serious iliness, of Senator Culberson of Texas. No word, it is said, can be communi- cated to the Senator who is undergoing treatment in Connecticut.

A man going to work told the patrolman he saw a negro run into the rear yard at the home of Mrs. Ida Duke, 4454 Delmar boulevard. Robbins found Williams crouching in @& rear doorway there and fired two shots as the negro ran toward the alley. One bullet struck the negro in the heel as he leaped over the fence and he fell. He was sent to the city hospital. The purse and money were recovered. Williams told the police he lives at 4228 Fairfax avenue, and said he went into the yard at 4454 Delmar avenue to look for a doctor, who had sent for him to come and cut the grass on his lawn. He denied he had been at the home of Miss Selby. WOMEN VOTERS WORKING FOR NON-VOTING SISTERS Conference Meets in Washing- ton to Lay Plans for Nation- Wide Suffrage.

POSSESINBOATS, | TN SKIRT [5 AMONG THE LATEST STYLES IN FALL Slit Gown and Diaphanous Dress to Stay, but With Touch of Modesty. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, Aug. 13.—Hamlet without Hamlet, or you can have your cake and eat it, will be the motif of madame’s garb next fall. There will be slits with- out any opening, shadow skirts without any view. It will be a season of com- promises. These things are evident at the an- nual style review of the Chicago Gar- ment Manufacturers’ Association, which opened last night. And they are au- thoritative, for it is the claim of the Chicago garment manufacturers that fashions for a majority of American women are created in this city. Skirts will be just as tight and just as thin and just as slit as they were this year. It is only they won’t look that way. The sensible American wom- an, according to one leading designer, wants the graceful, smart effect of the narrow slit skirt, but she wants it less sensational. For which reason ingenious designers have devised a gown with rows of ruf- fles or flounces running around the bot- tom. The skirt is slit and of the trans- parent texture that the dictates of fash- ion demand, but the thick circles of flouncing fill up thé’ gap and make the whole thing as impregnable to vision as a Chinese wall. Tango Skirt Devised. Beyond this there won’t be much change. The narrow skirt with straight lines will prevail. There will be much more fullness around the hips, how- ever, and skirts will be somewhat longer. Drapings also will be popular. Freedom is allowed in the choice of colors and no one shade will be much more popular than any other. If there is any preference it is in various shades of green. The same freedom is noticed in materials. If there is any preference in the latter it is toward sobriety, the Bulgarians being somewhat more sub- dued and the combinations of cloth less hectic. Among the novelties is what fs called a tango skirt. This is built along the architectural Iines of a coat shirt. It buttons around instead of going on over the head. This has the added advantage of providing an elastic slit, a sliding scale of frankness. The wearer can leave as many of the lower buttons un- buttoned as she chooses, Colored furs will be a distinctive note in winter wear. Cloaks of new and va- ried materials, worn with fur hats and fur collars, will be most conspicuous, Evening Gowns About Same. Evening gowns will have the same general tendency, although there will be more room for originality of treatment. One of the novelties is what is known as the butterfly wrap. Here is a tech- nical description: Coral colored brocaded faille, cut from one piece, draped to give the butterfly effect. A most unusual collar effect is obtained by a large bow made of moleskin. The wrap is worn over the butterfly evening gown in coral colored crepe, meteor and chiffon, trimmed with rhinestones.

ON HORSES, HUNT FOR GIRL'S SLAYER Hundreds of Men Search River and Woods at Lexington, Mo., for Young Negro. besmieneimened By Associated Press. LEXINGTON, Mo., Aug, 13.—Several hundred men, in motor boats, on horse- back and of foot, today continued beat- ing the country about Lexington in search of Goldie Winkfield, a young ne- gro, accused of attacking and murder- ing Estelle Potter, a 13-year-old girl, whose body was found in a ravine on her father’s farm yesterday. About a thousand men, divided into a dozen posses, kept up the search ai) night. A number of them this morn- ing said they thought the negro must have thrown himself into the Missouri River. Sentiment here is so strong against the negro that open threats have been made to lynch him. A minister of the town askisted in organizing the posses, 7 after declaring the negro Should be “hanged or burned.” Bloodhounds on Trail. Bloodhounds placed on the trail last night stopped at the Missouri River bank two miles south of here. At that point a belt belonging to Winkfleld was found and it was discovered that a boat that had been tied up there was missing. Believing the negro had crossed the stream the dogs were taken ty the other bank. When they failed to pick up a trail, the posse leaders con- Haat eee name ES ———__—— — GRes3— is the depilatory you ought to use, and tuere are thousands of women.who would be glad to tell you so.

The Sheriff does not be- lieve the negro has killed himself. “I think he got away in a boat,” he said, “but we will have him soorf.” The Kansas City police have been asked to watch for Winkfield. The child had been attending a sum- mer school a mile from her home. Yes- terday morning Winkfield saddled her pony and sent her away. The negro did not then return to the house, as had been his custom. In the afternoon, when the child did not return from school, a search was begun for her. Her body was found in a ravine, halt a mile from: the Potter home. There were evidences of a struggle. The child’s clothes had been torn from her body and her throat severed. The girl’s father said his daughter and the negro had quarreled when the child ordered the negro to peel some peaches. The negro obeyed in great anger, and it is thought his alleged act was one of revenge. Winkfield had been employed on the Potter place one month. $10, Detroit and Return, $10 Via Clover Leaf Route.

Hereabouts, faith is 4 in Chaurcey _leath, the slim web- tec wonder, who, according to itaker, is swimming better now than ever has. Heath outclasses all other precast experts. ‘Chicago Experts Are Coming. But whether he is able to take the ees of some of the invaders is a ques- tion. Chicago is preparing to send down a few men, everyone of whom is given the trip because he has a chance to land the big cup offered to the winner. Coach William Bachrach of the IIli- is A.

But who wants to see the NEGATIVE side of a game whose primal element is aggression? e . & It’s Just a Phrase. I F we come right out and face thea proposition honestly, boxing as a ‘“‘manly art of self-defense’ occupies the same relation to the popular mind that racing does as a “developer of thorough- bred cavalary stock for the army.” Both phrases are mere can’t. . Strong Against Weaklings. ILLIE RITCHIE put away Joe Rivers because the latter developed a strong ochre tendency. He had put away nothing of importance, prior to this bout, except food. He is essentially @ sparrer, if descriptions of his bouts are correctly analyzed; and Welsh ie of the same sort. Pitted against weaklings, both have unbelted a punch. But both require to be absolutely certain of their ground before they will take the chance. As a result, 3 rounds of prime fiddling for openings may be expected by the Brighouse A.

Red Sox to Show Here Minus Wood: Carrigan in Saddle as Manager pions of the world, but who will be lucky if they finish in the first division this season, Inaugurate a four- game series with the Browns at Sports- man’s Park Thursday afternoon. The Red Sox are coming West minus Joe Wood, the famed speed ball hurler of 1912. Wood is still on the hospital list and will probably not be seen in' any city In the West. Wood's failure this season is the prin-, cipal reason why the Red Sox are not again pennant contenders. He was in- jured early in the season, a sprained thumb preventing him from putting up his puzzling curve to the batters and he has been ordered to rest the mem- ber until it has completely healed. The world’s champions will show here Thursday for the first time under the man- eatcher. Hoe mucceeded Jake Stahl] as leader of the team, ammediately after the Boston team played here on the last trip.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—The Cards ar- rived this morning to start their final series of the year on the Polo Grounds. It is a hoodoo date for a start, but Huggins says that if that were the only thing he had to bother about he would not consider the immediate prospect at all bad. Otie Crandall and Manager Huggins got together this morning for a heart- to-heart talk over the size of the month- ly check that would be slipped into the ‘fold doctor’s’’ pay envelope this month. The Browns pulled up stakes last night and started westward. Despite the fact the. Browns won the last tussle by a 7 to 2 score, tieing the series with the Yanks, Stovall was not in a very good humor when he left. Unless he changes his mind before he gets back to 8St. Louis he is going to hand Ban Johnson a most emphatic kick against Silk O’Leoughilin. . O’Loughlin, he positively declares, was- the aggressor in the little setto with Pitcher Mitchell and he acted as though he regretted that his duty compelled him to Jump between the angry pitcher and the umpire to save the latter from a punch that Mitchell seemed just ach- ing to get rid of. Umpire Backs Away. O’Loughlin, too, seemed to think it was coming to him, and he acted as though he hated to wait for it. With his mask in his hand, and a wild look in his eye he drew away from the angry pitcher as he kept ordering him out of the game. Stovall claims that O’Lough- lin was utterly unjustified in his remark to Mitchell, which started the trouble. Mitchell had walked in quietly with the other players. Referring to a pitch that he thought was over, but which O’Loughlin had called a ball, he asked: “How did you come to miss that one?’ Then, say Mitchell and Stovall, O’Loughlin came back with his answer, “I missed that one just because I wanted a good ex- cuse.to put you out of the game, you yellow cur.” The whole storm broke utterly without warning,. and no one in the stand had the slightest inkling there was any trou- ble until they saw O'Loughlin backing away from Mitchell and Stovall and Jack Knight of the Yankees jumping in between them. O’Loughlin Takes “His.” When Mitchell was safely blocked off Sto- vall went after O'Loughlin with a line of talk that would ordinarfly get a man sus- pended for a month, but O'Loughlin let itt pases and contented himself with pending Mitchell to the clubhouse, Up to the time of his banishment Mitchel! was vitching a «reat came of ball and by dint of some good batting his teammates had secured a 8—1 lead: 80, of course, he gets credit for & won game. Leverens wae fust as effective. Aside from the row between Mitchell and O'Loughlin and the great batting streak the Browns de- veloped in the sixth inning, the game’ was without special feature. Maisel. the $12,000-plus-Daniels-plus-Mid- iff third baseman, has yet to make his first safe hit, though he laid down a pretry sao- rifice to help Cook along in the first inning and is a veritable streak of lightning on his feet. ——_—— Stovall had a rather happy day with the stick. Two doubles, the first of which would have been an easy triple for &@ speedy man and a singie was hie tally for five times up and had Cook made a less perfect throw to the plate on the fly in the sixth, doubling Compton, he would have been exempt from pion. He won the title by defeating Mr. Grubbds of Louieville in the final round of the tournament here yesterday, 2 up 1, in a 8¢-hole match.

LOUIS POST-DISPATOH PIPER'S ESTATE |WATCHMANHELD $790, IS AWARDED TO nls WIDOW Her Request That No Letters of Administration Be Issued Also Is Granted. SHE ESTIMATES THE VALUE jue. ail » Claims Allowance of $400 and Says She Needs $1500 More for Maintenance. The personal estate left by Edmund J. Piper, president of the Bollman Bros. Piano Co., who ended his life July 18 by swallowing carbolic acid at his home, 6354 ‘Waterman -avénus, amounted to only $790, and was awarded Wednesday to his widow, Mattie G. Piper, by Judge Shackelford of the St. Louis -County Probate Court. Judge Shackelford also granted the petition of Mrs. Piper that no letters of administration be issued because the estate Was so small, and ordered that no letters of administration be granted to creditors unless it be shown that Piper left additional property. Widow's Affidavit Fixes Value. The value of $790 was fixed by an affidavit of Mrs. Piper filed with her petition. The widow claimed $400 as her allowance, and stated she will need $1500 additional for her main- tenance for a -year in lieu of provi- sions which should have been pro- vided béfore her husband's death. Unger the Missouri law the widow is entitled to ask that she be ap- pointed administrator of her hus- band’s estate, and if she fails to apply for letters of administration in a specified time creditors have the right to demand administration of the estate. Where the estate is so small that the allowance to the widow is not fully satisfied the Court has the right to deny letters of administration to prevent the prop- erty from being expended for costs and litigation. Furniture Listed at 8250. A list of the property left by Piper and its value, as set forth in the affi- davit of Mrs. Piper, follows: A Bible, $10; household furniture, $250; provisions in the house, $; a bond of the ‘Organized Investment Co.,. $25; a note signed by Max F. Ruler, dated July 1, 1911, and due one year after date, $500. A note for $28, signed by Henry Smith, dated Feb. 3, 1918, and due one year after date, is stated to be of “‘no valus,”’ and is not computed in placing a value on the estate.

As every passenger train passing through East St. Louis stops at the Re- lay Depot the station agent there con- sidered it his duty to notify the police when he saw seven little negroes and a white boy swimming in a pond just a few feet away from and within unob- structed view of the station. The police seized the clothing of tho lads on the bank before making the arrests. The negroes explained they were from St. Louis and that as they were deprived of bathing privileges at the Fairground pool they had gone to East St. Louis to take a plunge.

JAIL AS ICE CREAM CURE AMESBURY, Mass., Aug. 13.—Four long, ice-creamless months in the lo- cal jail is the fate into which Ed- ward Burke’s thirst for that delicacy has led him. Edward broke into the refreshment parlors of William E. Carr and was helping himself to & liberal plate of chocolate ice cream when a watchman arrested him. In court the charge of stealing one plate of ice cream was preferred against him, but, as this was not the first time Edward has indulged in similar raids, the Judge thought that four months in jail might cure him PPR ers tay arte For.

ADMIRER STEALS ONE. I$ CAPTURED Miss Catherine Gibson, Webster Groves Station Agent, Did Not Know of Theft. Long country automobile rides en- joyed by Miss Catherine Gibson, Frisco station agent at Webster Groves, led to the discovery that her sweetheart, Ru- dolph Schroeder, also of Webster Groves, was a thief. He was arrested and Wednesday confessed that he had stolen an auto. He also admitted he had a prison record which he said ne had concealed from Miss Gibson. On the night of Aug. $ an automobile belonging to Dr. E. T. Urban of 1458 South Grand avenue was stolen from| the private garage behind his home. A description of the car and its license number was telephoned to St. Louis County. The day following the theft Schroeder drove to the 14-mile house on Manches- ter road and purchased a drink. The rroprietor, William Grupp, recognized the car as one the county officers had been inquiring about and whispered his suspicions to Frank Letterle, a brewery drummer, of 3962 Garfield avenue. When Schroeder departed, Letterle got into his own machine and chased the suspect. four miles, overtook him and compelled him to return to the road- house. Schroeder escaped by jumping through a window when his captors were awaiting the arrival of a Constable and fleeing in the machine. News of the chase and capture was telephoned to St. Louis and since then detectives have been watching Schroe- der’s home on Forest avenue. He was arrested Tuesday night when he drove up to the house in the stolen machine. Schroeder told the police he greatly ad- mired Miss Gibson, who.lives with her parepts at 715 Selma avenue in Webster Groves.

SEE DEEMS (The Letter Man) 120 Olive St INEW SIGNAL CODE. GIVES TRAFFIC MEN THE ‘DERRICK ARM Movements in Directing Drivers of Vehicles Makes Policemen Stiff and Sore. ‘LIKE A JUMPING-JACK’ Member of Squad Tells of Diffi- culty in Executing Signals at Busy Corners. After the first full day spent in ex- ecuting the new traffic signal code-- elevating both arms at right angles with the body to indicate the route in which vehicles are to move—members of the police traffic squad returned to their homes, ‘Tuesday evening, suffer- ing from what some of them termed *““derrick-arm.” | Their arms were so stiff and sore from the long, continuous calisthenic exercise that it pained them to lit their food from the supper table. Large quantities of alcohol (externally) were used to relieve soreness. Much complaint was made Wednesday about the new signal system, Reporter Watches Signals. A Post-Dispatch reporter spent Tues- day afternoon observing the oper- ation of the new plan, and it was evident that it was a strain on the patrolmen. As the end of the day’s work approached the arms of the policemen seemed to work with difficulty, as though the mechanism that propelled them was running short of motive power. At noon the arms were moving gracefully and naturally, put toward evening they assumed a sort of mechanical movement. It was the new movement that led several patrolmen to remark that they were getting ‘“derrick-arm.” Their arms moved like derricks, they said. In the hour between 1:30 and 2.30 p. m., while the traffic patrolman at Broadway and Olive street elevated his arms 412 times. That averaged about seven times a minute, or once every 8 seconds. As the policeman put in an eight-hour day, that means, at a rough estimate, he raised his arms and low- ered them mere than 3000 times in the course of his day’s work. This physical strain is of interest to physical culture experts. Opinion by an Expert. Prof. A. E.

RO BOO NP were verein, said the traffic squad men are subjected to a great strain by the new signal code. They may become accus- tomed to it in time, he said, but. until they do they will suffer as much as if they had rheumatism. Twenty-five minutes of calisthenics. in a stretch is considered the limit by ac- tive turners, he said, but he qualined that statement by adding that turners exercise all their muscles in the exer- cises. He said the exercise indulged in by the traffic men under the new system will result in the over-development of the muscles which control their arms and will be of no benefit to the rest of their muscular organization. Causes Much Confusion, The patrolmen say the new system causes much confusion to the drivers of vehicles. Under the old coda the pa- trolman merely waved his hand in the direction in which the traffic was to move and the plan was so simple that no one could misunderstand it. Under the new system, they say, it is hard to regulate traffic, because those drivers wishing to turn a corner do not correct- ly interpret the signal given. It is impossible properly to direct the vehicles, the men say, when a driver coming west, wishing to turn north, and another coming east,. and wishing to turn south, reach tne corner at the same time. Under the old system, they say, a few short and swift movements of the hand directed both vehicles almost simultaneously, but under the new plan two distinct and laborious motions have to be executed. Drivers Greet it as Joke. The new system seemed tobe regard- ed as a joke by a majority of the driv- ers who traversed Broadway between Washington avenue and Chestnut street. Very few understood the signal or needed it and many laughingly imi- tated the patrolmen in their wild efforts to operate and teach at the same time. “7 feel like a jumping-jack,” said one patrolman in discouragement, after he had. succeeded finally in relieving a Se- rious congestion at his corner. “There isn’t a man on the squad who likes this new system. It makes us look like a lot of mannikins and it is not a bit up- to-date. Why, if they keep it. up they will need two men at every busy cor- hicle drivers will never become accus- tomed to the system and it will be vir- tually useless.” That seemed to be the opinion of all the patrolmen interviewed by the re- porter. Not one of them has taken kindly to the new code. None of them cared to have his name used in discussing the new code, for the obvious reason that it was worked out WANT AD ANSWERS The People’s Popular Wants Bring Auswers. | ee ree me nae) Chiet Young, Capt.

What may be called the family corner in State jobs is a disgusting spectacle of official cheap- ness, involving necessarily a sacrifice of public welfare to private well-being, and a matter of ‘shame to Missouri. The Post-Dispatch has been at pains to show the extent to which the families of officials feed on the payrolls at Jefferson City. Gov. Major's 15-year-old son draws $40 a month from the In- surance Department. One of the - Governor’s ‘brothers is a deputy. hotel, inspector at $1200 a year. Practically the entire family of Auditor Gordon, including his wife, hold jobs. Secretary of State Roach has one of his family drawing $1800 and his sister-in-law drawing $1200 a year. The Hotel Inspector has his wife.as a deputy, drawing $900 a year. Beer Inspector Mosby has his son drawing $600 a year as a special messenger. The Warehouse Commissioner’s daughter receives $1500 as clerk. The Bradbury family (Mr. Brad- bury is secretary of the State Public Utilities Commission) has four jobs ranging from $3600 to $1600. Warden McClung has a son drawing $100 a month as commissary. Numerous legislators have members of their families on the payroll.

It is already han wheat, and ia still going up.—News.) == SPANEING DROMGOOLE'S BOY. Spanking Mr. Dromgoole’s 10-year-old boy is evidently one of the most perilous of outdoor or indoor sports. Some conception of its perils may I will k ] And I will make my .love be gained from the following dispatch from Slaughter, La., a town, by the way, which seems to have beer aptly named: SLAUGHTER, Ia., Aug. 18.—Emmett Wil- liams today was killed by O. M. Dromgoole becauge he spanked Dromgoole's 10-year-old boy. _ Spankifg Dromgoole’s boy, during the open season, may attract those big game hunters and heroes who have exhausted the thrills of the jungle. Lind’s mission to Mexico seems tame by contrast. As a substitute for a Mexican war, spanking Dromgoole’s boy should satisfy any jingo. | Furthermore, the boy probably needs it, and to spank him doubtless amounts to a high civic duty, a patriotic obligation worthy of a Hobson or a Roosevelt. The town would likely issue a license to any benefactor who would thus devote himself to the public weal. Perhaps there’s a bounty on ti Manifestly there’s a Carnegie medal in it and ¢mmortal reputation. As to the propriety of spanking a boy on gen- @ral principles there can bé no question. Glad- stone publicly declared for it when the matter was in direct issue before all Britain. Butler, the great poet, and most of the considerable authori- ‘tiés sanctioned it. In fact, there is a pretty general agreement that other people’s boys ought to be spanked. It is apparent, also, that spanking is a - custom too often honored in the breach rather than in the obsérvance by parents and guardians, and that unless some outsider or snooper volyn- teers it a boy will go unspanked. _ Many persons will admire and sympathize with the: deceaseil at Slaughter, La. There will not be many who will emulate him. For our part we are not mowed either by sheer love of adventure or reckless concern for the public weal to take up the task where the deceased left off. There is no man whose friendship we regard more de- sirable than that of the father of the Dromgoole boy and we tender him our most respectful con- sideration. = = —_- '- = Boss Murphy of Tammany Hall, interviewed some weeks ago, predicted Gov. Sulzer would be in the Progressive party with'n a year, and said: “T’ll stake “em to him, f. o. b.” It now looks as if he had undertaken to guarantee delivery. List to the last cry of Paris fashions—the gals are wearing galluses! Or shall we say, the girls | are wearing girluses? Evidently nothing could lend a more convinc- were never planned; they “just growed.’ Latter- ly some of them have been trying to correct a few of the worst defects due to the Topsy system of city building. In the new cities of the Canadian Northwest, they tell us, there are no grade crossings; all streets run under the railroads, on long inclines, and the railroads foot the bills. The 3-cent street car fare is universal—and the cities own the car lines. Electric current costs about one-third as much as in Missouri cities—and the cities as a rule own the electric light and power plants. Most of those amazing young cities get the bulk of their revenue from a land increment tax; they proceed on the assumption that the community, which makes increased values in unused land, is entitled to take a large part of the increase for community uses. They levy a very light tax cn buildings; they say they don’t wish to make any citizen pay a fine for being progressive. Travel is a great educator—if one travels in a land where new ideas are in vogue. i i ie — Govs. Major and Hodges, if in need of pointers on how to run a steam roller on Missouri’s good roads days, might consult Hon. Oscar W. Under- wood, Washington, D. C. The report of the special Charter Committee to the Central Civic Council, representing a number of civic organizations, has one notable contradic- tion. It recommends “a simple, Democratic and responsive form of government, which can easily be controlled by the voters as s whole.” But it urges “‘one house of legislation composed of representatives from comparatively small vot- ing districts.” Condemning the commission form of govern- ment, which is ideal because a city is nothing more than a municipal corporaiion org.nized to do the common work end take care of the general in- terests of the community, it condemns also one legislative house elected at large for the singuler reason,that “it tends to their selection by small but powerful groups of men who do not repre- sent the diverse interest of the city.” Since the Constitution reauires at least one leg- islative house elected at larze, the committee rec- ommends the continuation of the present halting and antiquated two-house system, founded on the ancient delusion that a modern city is a po- litcal state. is his second year) should consent to eonduct + Bible conference at a place where the people are s0 worldly and that he should stay and live a that time, have heard that awful ragtime and seen those Oriental dances. GUS V. R. MBCHIN. Two Great Problems Sglved. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There is a glimmer of a solution of the dog- surplus problem. The consumption of dog meat for human food is increasing in Germany. Indians have long found it an. excellent food. If meat is to be eaten, why let ignorance and prejudice stand in the way? Besides, is not this an easy road to cheap meat? CHILE CON CARNE. A Lady’s Views of Street Car Smokers. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I believe that any innately refined man would not force his fellow passengers to endure the dis- comfort of smoke, odor and ashes from his cigar, pipe or cigarette. I have had to leave my seat beside a man with a vile pipe in his pocket, the stench was s0 nauseating. Fifty-cent cigars are not so bad, except for the ashes; but then every- body can’t afford 50-cent cigars. I have seen a woman passenger have a hole burned in a pretty summer frock by the burning ash from a cigar. I have geen a child leave the car crying from tobacco blown in its eye from a cigarette in the “makin’.” In fact, the discomforts suffered from the smoke hog are too innumerable to mention. If a woman chewed gum on the car incessantly, she would be an object of severe criticism. Yet this habit can only Je criticised from an asthetic standpoint and can in no physical sense annoy a fellow passenger. The extent to which the to- bacco smoking is carried is unbellevable, and it does seem to me that the manhood of our coun- try should awake to the almost crimihal selfish- ness of the filthy and annoying habit. ORTIA. Why Not Sprinkle the Coal Dust? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Kindly publish the following in your “Let- ter Column” and oblige one of your subscribers. The Polar Wave ice plant at Broadway and La Salle street have recently made a change in the boilers which requires what is known as peat coal and is very fine. This plant uses from ten to twelve (three-horse) loads daily, which are hauled there by their own teams. Every day, including Sundays, they receive these loads of coal dust. None of this coal or dust is ever wetted in the least, and the result is that great clouds arise. which are so dense that you cannot see in its path. When the wind is blowing from the south the residents on La Salle street and pass- ersby are littered with this dust, #8 where it is unloaded is only about 200 feet from the street. Now, something ought to be done to abate this nuisance without delay, as it is a detriment to health. THE PRINCIPAL SUFFERERS. Mashers Denounced. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. . Would like to ca your attention to the action of some of the men who make it their business to loaf around the streets of our city. It’s really getting so that a respectable woman can hardly L walk along the south side of Washington avenue } between Broadway and Sixth streét without be- ing annoyed and often followed by the men who make it their business to loaf there during the busy part of the day, especially the noon hour. It's really too bad that women who go along minding their own business have to endure the insults of these masters. I wonder where the police are that they allow this to continue.

ROADS AND ROADHOUSES. | Dear Just a Minute: Your suggestion that Gov. Major could get everybody § out by including roadhouses in his proc- lamation is the most sensible thing I have seen this summer. Roadhouses are inseparably associated with roads, and to omit all mention of them in an appeal is absurd. I cannot imagine & more effective and thrilling spectacle than all the people in Missouri who are interested in roads working on roads, and all those who are interested in road- houses working on roadhouses. We would certainly get some new roads and roadhouses after two days of that sort of thing. I have what is perhaps an average acquaintance, and I think three-fourths of the people I know would rather build new roadhouses than new roads. The enthusiasm of the in- dividual is a consideration.

Sulzer did anything very bad? was return him the winner in so technical an effort. The latter are composed of that class who do not, nor possibly never will be able to understand that a negro is the same kind of human be- ing as any other individual or race, with the exception of the color of skin and texture of hair. The first class of surprised beings are those who would have the negro breathe a different strata of air than that breathed by th» Caucasian, if- such a thing was pos- sible; yes, they, would even go so far as to have it written in the statute books of law: “This air to be breathed by negroes only.” Notwithstanding the classes above mentioned, we are pleased to be able to congratulate the Post-Dispatch for its fairness in the matter; and we are in- deed sorry to know that we cannot say as much for the other daily papers in St. Louis. This is the second time that the Post has fearlessly awatded a sub- stantial prize to members of the ¢éol- ored race; fresh in the minds of its many read- ers. We refer to the sending of Miss Floy Ma? Johnson to Washington, D. C., to witness the inauguration of one of our Presidents. We remember when the St. Louis Times inaugurated a con- test and when some of our colored eitt- zens applied to enter they were told that the cdéntest was for white people only. The Post-Dispatch, by its feir- ness to its negro readers, especially in contests where merit sets the standard, will always rank as St. Louis’ biggest and best newspaper. The Central Afro.

St. Louis real estate men return from a visit to Western Canada with strange stories about — | = — a “Lyoung cities in that region which appear to have been built to plan, like a house, or a factory, or a world’s fair. Telling such stories ‘in any big American city, théy must feel some doubt of be- ing believed. Our cities, like Topsy, in “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” were never planned; they “just growed.” Latter- ly some of them have been trying to correct a few of the worst defects due to the Topsy system of city building. ; In the new cities of the Canadian Northwest, they tell us, there are no grade crossings; all streets run under the railroads, on long inclines, and the railroads foot the bills. The 3-cent street car fare is universal—and the cities own the car lines. Electric current costs about one-third as much as in Missouri cities—and the cities as a rule own the electric light and power plants. Most of those amazing young cities get the bulk of their revenue from a land increment tax; they proceed on the assumption that the community, which makes increased values in unused land, is entitled to take a large part of the increase for community uses. They levy a very light tax cn buildings; they say they don’t wish to make any citizen pay a fine for being progressive. Travel is a great educator—if one travels in a land where new ideas are in vogue. =" .

A. — ae a NOT AN ANTIQUE HULE. The report of the special Charter Committee to the Central.Civic Council, representing a number of civic organizations, has one notable contradic- tion. It recommends “a simple, Democratic and responsive form of government, which can easily be controlled by the voters as sc. whole.” But it urges “one house of legislation composed of represeatatives from comparatively small vot- ing districts.” Condemning the commission form of govern- ment, which is ideal because a city is nothing more than a municipal corporaiion organized to do the common work and take care of the general in- terests of the community, it condemns also one legislative house elected at large for the singuler reason that “it tends to their selection by small but powerful groups of men who do not repre- sent the diverse interest of the city.” Since the Constitution reauires at least one leg- islative house elected at large, the committee rec- ommends the continuation of the present halting and antiquated two-house system, founded on the ancient delusion that a modern city is a po- litcal state. With the present two-house system or with the ' Se be - LOUIS POST-DISPA ‘conventions whipped or frightened fnte submis- sion to the popular demand. | ‘Bad Councils have been elected through pub- lie neglect when the nominating ‘power was in the hands of ward bosses. We are now in better position to control a one-house legislature, elect- ed at large, because we have the direct primary. The power of the political bosses in a vote of the whole city is weakened. It can be broken. The artificial ward system helps to keep party bosses in power. The interests of the city are common, rot di- verse.

Since St. Louis cannot get a board of directors of its best men, let us have the next most efficient single legislative house elected at larre with all other offices appointive. Let us empower this government through the charter to build, purchase and operate publf¢ util- ities, to raise money by bonds and district as- sessments for parks, playgrounds and boulevards and to do all the work necessary to meet the so- cial, industrial, commercial and artistic needs of the city.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Will you kindly publish this in answer to the letter in your paper of last Friday, which the author did not sign, but simply subscribed as “A Cottage Owner.” It seems strange that In this twentieth century some people do not recognize that we are in an age of progress and evolution, and the old-fash- loned camp meetings of ante bellum days are a thing of the past, and that all religions acknow!l- edge modern ways and ideas, and that we no long- er desire to live Yike our Indian predecessors, in tents, but rather accept present civilization and dwell in cottages; but there is nothing in the rules of Chautauqua to prevent this disgruntled individual selling his cottage and. living in a tent if he wants to. I have for some years lived as near as anyone at the Chautauqua to the place where “the tired ‘commuter is assailed” in the way mentioned in this cottage owner's letter, and can hear and see everything that goes on there, and I deny that “one ig bothered, annoyed, tortured” by “ragtime music going on at the-platform until 12 o'clock at night;” nor have I seen any Oriental dances going on there, and yet I am not blind. The best proof that Chautauqua is not becom- ing so worldly as this cottager of ancient times would have us believe is that, as he says in his letter, no games, not even the “innocent” game of croquet, which seems to be so near the heart of our friend, is allowed to go on, on Sundays. Now, up to the present dar, as to automobiles, their honk, honk and chug does not prevent the worshipers from hearing the sermons any more than the old-fasioned “whoa” and “git up” that our antiquated friend used to listen to. Don’t you think, dear “cottage owner,” that it is strange that the Rev. Dr. Williamson (and this is his second year) should consent to conduct + Bible conference at a place where the people are s0 worldly and that he should stay and live 4a week with such sinners, and yet he must, during that time, have heard that awful ragtime and seen those Oriental dances. GUS V. R. MBECHIN, Two Great Problems Sglved. To the Hditor of the Post-Dispatch. There is a giimmer of a solution of the dog- surplus problem. The consumption of dog meat for human food is increasing in Germany. Indians have long found it an. excellent food. If meat is to be eaten, why let ignorance and prejudice stand in the way? Besides, is not this an easy road to cheap meat? CHILE CON CARNE. A Lady’s Views of Street Car Smokers. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I believe that any innately refined man would not force his fellow passengers to endure the dis- comfort of smoke, odor and ashes from his cigar, pipe or cigarette. I have had to leave my seat beside a man with a vile pipe in his pocket, the stench was so nauseating. Fifty-cent cigars are not so bad, except for the ashes; but then every- body can’t afford 60-cent cigars. I have seen a woman passenger have a hole burned in a pretty summer frock by the burning ash from a cigar. I have seen a child leave the car crying from tobacco blown in its eye from a cigarette in the “makin’.” In fact, the discomforts suffered from the smoke hog are too innumerable to mention. If a woman chewed gum on the car incessantly, she would be an object of severe criticism. Yet this habit can only Je criticised from an asthetic standpoint and can in no physical sense annoy a fellow passenger. The extent to which the to- bacco smoking is carried is unbellevable, and it does seem to me that the manhood of our coun- try should awake to the almost crimihal selfish- ness of the filthy and annoying habit. ORTIA. Why Not Sprinkle the Coal Dust? To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. Kindly publish the following in your “Let- ter Column” and oblige one of your subscribers. The Polar Wave ice plant at Broadway and La Salle street have recently made a change in the boilers which requires what is known as peat coal and is very fine. This plant uses from ten to twelve (three-horse) loads daily, which are hauled there by their own teams. Every day, including Sundays, they receive these loads of coal dust. 7 . None of this coal or dust is ever wetted in the least, and the result is that great clouds arise. which are so dense that you cannot see in its path. When the wind is blowing from the south the residents on La Salle street and pass- ersby ate littered with this dust, #8 where it is unloaded is only about 200 feet from the street. Now, something ought to be done to abate this nuisance without delay, as it is a detriment to health. THE PRINCIPAL SUFFERERS. |, Mashers Denounced.

It’s really getting so that a respectable woman can hardly . walk along the south side of Washington avenue between Broadway and Sixth street without be- ing annoyed and often followed by the men who make it their business to loaf there during the busy part of the day, especially the noon hour. It's really too bad that women who go slong minding their own business have to endure the insults of these masters. I wonder where the police are that they allow this to continue.

Roadheuses are inseparably associated with roads, and to omit all mention of them in an appeal is absurd. I cannot imagine 4 more effective and thrilling spectacle than all the people in Missouri who are interested in roads working on roads, and all those who are interested in road- houses working on roadhouses. We would certainly get some new roads and roadhouses after two days of that sort of thing. I have what is perhaps an average acquaintance, and I think three-fourths of the people I know would rather build new roadhouses than new roads. The enthusiasm of the in- dividual is a consideration.

He got caught, : THAT POST-DISPATCH PRIZE. From the Central Afro-American. The awarding of the Post-Dispatch $100 cash prize to a negro school teacher of Alabama has caused a great deal of surprise among the many whitc com- petitors throughout the more than ® States In which the hundreds of coa- testants live. Many of these contest- ants were surprised to know that ne- groes would be allowed to compete and many are surprised at the fact that a negro had the qualifications that would return him the winner in so technical an effort. The latter are composed of that class who do not, nor possibly never will be able to understand that a negro is the same kind of human be- ing .as any other individual or race, with the exception of the color of skin and texture of hair. The first class of surprised beings are those who would have the negro breathe a different strata of air than that breathed by th» Caucasian, if- such a thing was pos- sible; yes, they, would even go so far as to have it written in the statute books of law: “This air to be breathed by negroes only.” Notwithstanding the olasses above mentioned, we are pleased to be able to congratulate the Post-Dispatch for its fairness in the matter; and we are in- deed sorry to know that we cannot say as much for the other daily papers in St. Louis. This is the second time that the Post has fearlessly awatded a sub- stantial prize to members of the col- ored race; the other instance is still fresh in the minds of its many read- ers. We refer to the sending of Miss Floy Ma Johnson to Washington, D. C., to witness the inauguration of one of our Presidents. We remember when the St. Louis Times inaugurated a con- test and When some of our colored ceiti- zens applied to enter they were told that the céntest was for white people only. The Post-Dispatch, by its feir- ness to its negro readers, especially in contests where merit sets the standard, will always rank as St. Louis’ biggest and best newspaper. The Central Afro. American takes no middle ground when it says to the world, “There are thou- sands of Isaac Fishers knocking at the door of opportunity.” GOVERNMENT BY BLACKMAIL From the New York World. At the time Mr. Sulzer was nominated and elected Governor his «private in- tegrity had not been questioned. He was supposed to be poor and honest. There: were no rumors of financial ir- regularities until he had quarreled with Murphy. When he stood in the way of the boss and his contracts, exposure was swift and certain, and would be equally swift and certain in the case of any Other man of independence who was vulnerable. It is now apparent that Tammany nominates and elects nobody to office who is not vulnerable.

He now swung down from his mount and hitehed across the sidewalk into the Palace saloon, Taking his drink of raw red, he glouched over to the stove and was goon immersed in the Sunday news. Two grizzled old prospectors sat on the opposite side of the welcome heat, and finally the Kid gave up disgustedly trying to read about the Russian Coun- tess who did such a series of alluring dances, and was endeavoring to give the public her secrets on beauty. Such sentences as these were the cause of his abandoning the paper. “T tell yer, Mike, that is the finest hoss I’ve seen out in the hills as long as I’ve been there. If he was caught, the feller what put the rope on him would get a nice little stake out of it.” “Wal, it sure is the best piece of hoss-fiesh I ever seen, all right; but I don’t think there’s a puncher in this county who's slick enough to get the Shy Un.

Lashing and squealing with rage, the animal got again to its feet, when, in another endeavor to throw him, the rope, weakening where the hoofs had hit it, gave way. Shaking his head, the erstwhile cap- tive deliberately «icked Peggy and sailed off in a fine, reaching gallop, fol- lowed by the three mares. Shorty stood helpless with the end of the rope in his hand. “Well,”” he spoke aloud, ‘if that ain't the doggoneddest I ever seen or heard tell of. The son-of-a-gun broke the stake ropes on all o’ them when I was fightin’ him, an’ then this here rope broke, an’ he sails off with the bunch in tow.” And, throwing the saddle over his shoulder, he plugged 11 weary miles back to camp. Arriving here, he found that all his other stock was loose, and for the latter half of the day he had the questionable pleasure of trying to catch them. At last, after many attempts, he managed to rope Daffy, the tamest, and, saddling him, tried to get the others. They disappeared in the gathering darkness, and when Shorty turned in for the night, the last thing he heard was a heavy neigh of, what seemed to him to be derision, and knew that it could come from the throat of one horse only. In the morning, after.a slight break- fast, he saddled Daffy and took up the trail again. Rounding a small sand-dune an hour later, he found that he had come out right among the animals. “Now,” he yelled, “I’ve got a fatfr chance with you. That shoulder of your’n must be some sore today, an’ on a horse like Daffy you’re sure goin’ to be easy pickin’.” Although his shoulder was sore, and he ran with a limp, the wild horse Managed to keep just out of range of Shorty’s rope, which. was ready for in- stantaneous use.

Walking back to the helpless pony, he stood for a moment in doubt. Shaking himself together, he spoke de- cisively: “Daffy, old boy, you've seen your last round-up.

This slaughter has been overcome by a device of Prof. A. D. Mead, in charge of the State hatchery at Wickford, R. I. The young lobsters are placed in a series of bags 12 feet square and 5 feet deep, in each of which is fixed near the bottom a horizontal propeller turned by a shaft geared to a gasoline motor. The rota- tion of the propellor keeps the water in the bag in continuous motion ani prevents the lobsters from catching and eating each other. The currents in the water also seem to preserve the lobsters from the at- tacks of parasites. The young lobsters are kept in the bags from four to five weeks, when they are liberated in deep water with a rocky bottom.

Between bites he gave them the story of his failure. “An’ I guess that about proves that you lose an’ we win,” old Mike grinned complacently when he had finished. “Yep,” the young man rejoined. “You win that bet, all right; but I beat you to something a whole lot better.” “You what!” the. other asked, draw- ing back in surprise. Striker carefully drew his hand across his mouth, turned in the chair and faced him. “Ain't you always been lookin’ for the ledge what the rich float you found last year come from?” “Sure.” “Wal, I just happened to find it about two miles up the canyon from your claims,” and for corroboration he drew from his pockets a nandful of speci- mens. Breathiessly the crowd tnspected them: then Nicholas, the “barkeep,”’ broke the awed silence. “Wal, Mike,” he decided, voicing the crowd's attitude, “you won the bet, but if them’s fair specimens, the Kid has sure- beat you to the ledge.” Then, turning to Shorty: | w did you name it?’ he asked.

For a woman to reach 20 without marrying is considered a terrible thing. A peculiarity of these) weddings is that they would appear to be a matter of interest to everyone except the parties mostly concerned, who often see one another for the first time on the wedding morning. This is because in a\Korean household the boys are kept apart from the girls, the father and sons occupying the front of the house and the mother and the daughters living in the resr of the establishment. Moreover, in their social life the boys are not allowed to mix,/with the gentler sex. The parents and friends arrange the match, in accordance with their own interests, and if both parties agree and the bargain is concluded, the formali- ties are of the simplest. There is no religious ceremony and no legal con- tract. Early on the wedding morn the best man arrives to tie the bridegroom’s, pig- tail in a knot on the top of his head, and this not only remains forever as an out- ward and visible sign of his condition, but entitles him to wear a hat for the first time in his life and to be treated as a man and enter public life. He may be a mere child, 12 years of age, but he has no longer any right to play with his boy friends, and must choose his associates among old men. He has now all civil rights, and is expected to be- have accordingly. If, on the contrary, a man is unable to afford the luxury of a home and a wife, he may reach the age of 50, but he must still wear his pigtail down his back, has none of the advantages of citizenship, ard is expected to play with kites, marbles, and such-like. Any folly he may commit is excused in the same way as the naughtiness of a child who is not re- sponsible for his actions. The wedding ceremony itself ts most simple. The whole function consists of a procession, when the bride and bride- groom are conducted by their respective relations to a dats.

OBERT BRIDGES, the new poet laureate of Great Britain, judging from newspaper ballots on the question, “Who Shall Be Laureate?’ was not within gunshot of popular choice. result of one of these polls gave Rud- vard Kipling 22,630 votes; Alice Meynell, 6598, and far down in the list came Rob- ert Bridges, with 710 votes. Dr. Bridges has recently published a book called “English Pronunciation,’’ in which he calls attention tm grave tendencies which threaten the public taste. Dr. Bridges is credited with a vein of. hu- mor. It should bs explained, however, that this credit is given by Englishmen only. Here is a sample of it, in T. P.’s Weekly: “My friend, the late Dr. Gee, going his round of the hospital wards one day, came to the bedside of a newly admitted patient. After wxamining him carefully and finding little the matter with him, he called for the bed card and in his deliberate manner prescribed thereon a diet with a placebo to be taken three times a day. The man, frightened by his gravity and silence, feared the worst (he may perhaps have been reading Mr. Stephen Coleridge’s letters in the news- papers), and was no sooner left alone than he snatched down the board and seeing cabalistic signs and at the ioot of them the awful words ‘ter die,’ and reading them, this learned man, with much the same kind of pronunciation as the public orator, saw as he thought his death warrant, so he whipped out of bed and fled for his life; to add, no doubt, a new tale to the ‘terrers’ of the hospital.

By CELIA K. HUSIK. N authority on agriculture in a A recent article on soil culture speaks of the farmer as “the most independent man in the world.” The farmer is not only that. He is the most wseful man in the world, too. And the sooner the people at large realize this fact the betten it will be for all concerned. The farmer has long been denied the appreciation that is his due. In. order to become “the most inde- pendent man in the world” W is neces- sary to have the will and desire to labor hard out of doors. The city man who is contemplating going to the farm must bear this in mind. The work of tilling the soll requires in- finite toil. And only the man who has so great a love for seed and soll that working with them is a labor of love to him, should think of taking up farm- ing as a profession. Physical strength is a great neces- sity in this work. Adaptiveness to one’s surroundings is very important. The future farmer must also be willing to forego all the pleasures and com- forts of city life. He must likewise be a man of infinite patience, willing to labor and to wait. With all these qualities at his command a man would do well to take up farming. A scientific training is absolutely necessary to produce the very best re- sults. For a young mana course in a State agricultural school is the best preliminary to actual farm cultivation. The city man who is not able to give up several years to agricultural train ing should either employ a practical or scientifically trained worker in farm- ing or be In constant communication with State agricultural experts and with the Department of Agriculture at Washington. For these agencies do a great deal to promote agricultural f knowledge among the people. During the winter, again, when the farmer has considerable amount of leisure, “short term courses” in State egricultural schools may be taken with the utmost benefit, Upon the completion of his course the agricultural student may hire himself out to work for another farmer, or if € > AND COURTESY A* conduct.

They are: Mrs. Louis Lasky, Nettie Lasky, ) years old; Clara Goldstein of Minne- apolis, 20; Mrs.~Aaron Siegel, Benny Sie- gel, 7; Sylvia Siegel, 14; Phil Siegel, 4. Two are at the hospital, Mrs. Ed Las- ky and Mrs. EB. Franklin. They will re- cover. There were 23 on the boat, all from Superior except Miss Goldstein. The party was on a trip up the river. All but a few of the passengers were sitting on a couple of benches on the roof. The vessel was pitched up and down when a tug passed, until the benches were wrenched loose, hurling the occupants into the water.

Gomi Kisco, banished son of a Jap- anse tea importer of Los Angeles, held at Police Headquarters for having cashed several forged checks, attributes his downfall to girle and taxicabs. He is 33 years old and a graduate of the University of Michigan. Kisco told the police his father gave him $10,000 10 years ago and told him never to show his face at home again just because he wanted to marry «@ white girl. He entered college at Ann Arbor, he said, and in 190 graduated from the law department. Since then he has been wandering he sald, enjoy- ing the company of American girls and the luxury of taxi joy rides. He came to St. Louls several months ago, he said, with $1500 and opened a restaurant in Wellston. He roomed at 6313 war: ington avenue. Kisco passed the checks, which were for small amounts, on storekeepers from whom he purchsed provisions.

Mrs. Jarr turned on him. “Don’t you say a word! Don’t you dare say a word! It was your plan that We take these so-called ‘little trips around St. Louis.’ What is the world coming to that life should be so dread- ful? Well’’—here Mrs. Jarr assumed an expression of serene determination— “this is a warning. After this you will go to church every Sunday! EVERY Sunday, I said!” “But, Clara, maybe’’— “TI told you not to say a word! And, oh, to think of how you persisted in sitting, around smoking your old pipe and rgading the papers and not even giving a hand to get the children off tos ay school! They would have never gotten to Sunday school if I hadn’t seen to it, as, I am thankful to say, I did!’’ P “But, maw, was: it Indians in the woods that fired the guns? Was it. pop?” “Certainly not, my son!”’ said Mra Jarr, glad to have someone to talk to. “But wasn’t they Indians, pop?” re-: peated the boy. ‘‘I seen Infians.”’ “How silly, my son!’’ said Mr. Jarr, Smiling. “Papa will explain it all to you. There are no Indians nearer than 2000 miles. Oh, Indians are NEVER anywhere near here!’’ And here, just to show how accurate the father was in everything he told his children, a series of blood-curdling warwhoops smote upon the air, and Mrs. Jarr had just time to seize her children and step aside when from the woods dashed a tribe of. painted red devils in full war panoply. The sun glistened on their half-naked, shiny, bronzed bodies, and on and past they dashed, yelling and turning te shoot from the backs of their gallop- ing mustangs. One great warrior shook a gory scalp almost in the face of the panic-stricken Mrs. Jarr as his horse loped by so close that she could have reached ou: and touched it! But the red devils were not to escape unscathed, for a“detachment of United States cavalry emerged from a cloud of dust over a small rise to the front, while out from the woods and riding for dear life and revenge came a‘ band of hardy settlers led by Cal, the cow- boy king—it was Willie Jarr who rec- ognized this hero. The Indians, seeing their escape cut off, came to such a sudden halt that several fell from their mustangs. The rest alighted somewhat more carefully and, taking their horses by the jaw- straps, made them lie on the ground. Behind these breastworks of horseflesh they leveled their rifles, and soon the battle was at its height, the Jarr fam- ily being right in the line of fire. But, in this hour of peril, was Mr. Jarr dismayed? Let it be written here he was not. “Don’t scream so, children! come on, Clara, and don’t worry,” he said. ‘‘DQon’t you see that we’ve wan- dered into the moving picture taking belt ?’’ And, leading his family, while. the director and camera man in an automo- bile swore at them roundly for having spoiled a thousand feet of film and a carefully rehearsed three-reel spectac- ular production of “‘Pioneer Days,”’ they _Wwent their way.
