DULUTH, Minn., Aug. 16.—Every ef- fort is being made by the police today jto unravel the mystery of the death yesterday of John McAlpine, the wealthy lumberman, who was found shot to death in the basement of his home in the fashionable east end district. The wound in McAlpine’s head is not one that ordinarily would be self-inflict- ed, the police declare, as the lack of powder marks indicates that the shot was not fired from close range.

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 16.—Ernest Jaumsen, the Russian journalist who was held up by immigration officers| when he arrived in Boston a week ago, has won his fight to enter this coun- try. An effort had been made to bar him on the ground that he was a political agitator and that he might become a public charge.

When she awoke, she said, she found Kapp dead in bed beside her, a bullet having entered his head through the left ear. The young woman was moved to con- fession by the story vf Alzire Pates, a negro church worker, who lives upstairs ‘at 1917 Division street, the windows of his room being opposite those of the room occupied by Kapp and Rose Pow- ell. Man Dared Her toe Kill Him. Pates told the police that about 1 a. m. he heard Kapp and his companion | aeaeeding in their bedroom. He could see them plainly, he said, as the edr- | tains were up and the light was burn- ing. Rose Powell, he said, was trying to get Kapp’s revolver “I dare you to try it. You're not game " enough to kill me,” Pates said he heard Kapp say to the girl. Kapp then pulled down the window curtains. Pates said he heard no shot fired and took no further notice of his neighbors until after 5 a. m., when he saw Rose Powell raise the window cur- tains. Fell Asleep Beside Him. Miss Powell told Capt. Schoppe, after Pates’ story had been heard, that Kapp ‘went to bed and to sleep and that she got up, took his revolver from his coat pocket and shot him. “IT don't know what I did with the revolver,” she said. “I think I gave it to a fellow named Harry. I was so excited, after I shot him I just lay down on the bed beside him and I fell asleep and slept till after 5.” The police do not believe her story that she went to sleep again. They are trying to learn whether she left the house after the shooting and re- turned just before she gave the alarm that Kapp was dead. They especially discredit a state- ment that she drank a can of beer and then lay down beside the dead man to go to sleep. A box of cartridges was found in the toom, but there was no revolver. The girl said Kapp always carried a big pistol. She teld the police at first that she had lived with Kapp nine months, but later said she had lived with him Only one month. Her mother, Mrs. Mol- Powell of 1922 Division street, said girl had been with Kapp only a Threatened te Kill Her. Powell said Xapp had threatened times to kill her.

His water plane is a double-decker, fitted with a 100-horsepower motor. The shore was black with spectators as Hawker started on his 1600-mile flight, which must be completed within (2 hours. Descents may be made on the water only at contro] stations at Ramsgate, Yarmouth, Scarborough, Aberdeen, Cro- marty, Oban, Dublin, Falmouth and the finishing point at Netley. The fact that there is only a single competitor for the big prize open to all British machines is commented on by the newspapers, which say it proves that Great Britain is still dependent on foreign: countries in aviation. ST. LOUIS BOY CAUGHT IN FRATERNITY HOUSE RAID To ¥.iung Men and Three Girls Are Captured by Police at Columbia. COLUMBIA, Mo., Aug. 16.—A raid on a Missouri University fraternity house last night, by police resulted in G. W. Gladding, a St. Louis boy, T. A. Ruler and three girls, facing the charge of disturbing the peace. Queenie Nichols, the 16-year-old girl who was considered the motive in the Lee Moore murder case, slay- er of mother and grandmother, was one of the girls. Two girls and three boys escaped when the policemen en- tered the house. Evidence of drink- ing was found. Mrs. Bertha Plater and Ida Nichols were fined $1 and costs with Queenie this morning. The boys are waiting trial after a night in the lockup. Just how much this will affect the fraternity situa- tion at Missouri University is doubtful, as Gladding is the only member of the party belonging to the Pi Kappi Alpha fraternity, whose house was raided. POLICEMAN ATHLETE * “PROBABLY BLINDED Matt McGrath Hit in a Fight, Expected to Lose Sight of One Eye. NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—Matthew C. McGrath, Olympic champion hammer thrower, will probably lose the sight of one eye as the result of a fight in the lobby of a Broadway theater at midnight last.night with five men whom he and another special. police- man attempted to eject. One of the men’swung his cané and struck McGrath in the right eye with it. The athlete, blinded and suffering with pain, fell to the floor and for a few seconds was unconscious. He was rushed to a nearby police station where a physician put 12 stitches in MoGrath’s face and said that the pupil of the eye had been so injured that probably he would not be able to see with it again. The “man said by the police to be the: one who injured McGrath gave his name as John Brink, 35 years old, a civil engineer of this city. “Be-at Peace j ing his life in McAlpine’s business af- fairs, his condition of health or his state of mind. The authorities did not learn that a shooting had occurred. until the body had been removed from the basement of the home. The revolver, a 48-caliber auto- matic, was found under the basement steps, according to the police. Big Life Policies Involved. On the determination of the question of se)f-destruction will rest the pay- ment of $140,000 in accident insurance held by McAlpine. Policies amounting to $65,000 are straight life risks and are not contestable. Members of the family say that Mc- Alpine was accidentally shot when he fell over a pipe with an automatic pistol in his hand or that a burglar killed ‘him. An inquest will be held late today. In explaining the incidents of the morn- ing of the finding of the body, Mrs. McAlpine said that about 2:45 a. m. she awoke feeling ill. The house was bril- liantly lighted. Cards were on the table where her husband had been play- ing solitaire, waiting for his stepson Dale McAlpine, and Dale’s wife to return home. Finding that her husband was not in the bedroom, Mrs. McAlpine went out into the corridor. From there she saw that the downstairs rooms were lighted. She called to her hus- band, but there was no _ answer. She then summoned her son Dale. H»> followed through the lower floor rooms to the basement door, which the mother and son found open. Shot Was Not Heard. No shot or other disturbing noise had been heard, according to Mrs. Mc- Alpine. According to the story told Chief Troyer, young McAlpine found his step- father lying face downward under the basement steps. A window opening into the basement coal bin had ben removed, but set clear of the opening There was sufficient space, however, for a person to enter. As soon as he had discovered the body, young McAlpine hurried to telephone a doctor. MAD DOG IN A TENEMENT Twenty Families Flee From Ani- mai Patrolman Kills. Twenty families living in a tenement building at 1717 South Second street ran into their rooms when a large white dog frothing at the mouth ran into the tene- ment yard Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. Someone notified Patrolman Eilers of the Soulard station, who shot the, dog before it injured anyone. It was turned over to the city bacter- fologist to be examined for traces of rabies.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—BKarnest Jaumsen, the young Russian Socialist writer detained by the immigration au- thorities at Boston, has been dérdered released. A telegram was sent to Im- migration Commissioner Billings by Commissioner-General Caminetti in- structing him to permit Jaumsen to en- ter this country and go to the agent of the Political Defense League in Boston, who promised to obtain work for him. After a review of all facts appearing in the record, Caminetti recommended to Acting Secretary of Labor Post that the appeal of Jaumsen be sustained. Post. promptly concurred in the recommenda- tion. “The bureau believes that the evi- dence in the case justifies no other action,’’ said Caminetti. The vessel that brought Jaumsen to Boston will sail on the return voyage tomorrow for Hamburg, where he em- barked. Jaumsen hopes to obtain work on a Socialist newspaper.

Suit for $12,000 damages was filed Saturday by Mrs. Blanche Gardener of 2807 Cass avenue against John Schruender of 2707 Utah street, a policeman. The petition sets forth that June 19 last Schruender opened the door to Mrs. Gardener's private apafttments and entered; that he beat her with his fist, tore her dress, swing her around and broke china and glassware. Mrs. Gardener de- clares that she is a permanent in- valid and a nervous wreck as a re- sult of this experience. W. A. Kane, attorney for Mrs. Gard- ener, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that the policeman visited his client to arrest her, having mistaken her for another woman. He said that Mrs. Annie Auk- toff, who lives in the same house, had gone to Mrs. ,Mary Mull at 2811 Cass avenue, a fortune teller, and after. pay- ing a fee had been told that her hus- band had heen meeting another woman. “Mrs. Auktoff,”’ said Kane, “grew an- gry at this.

They tried to arrest Mrs. Gardener in- stead.”’ Kane said that Joseph Gardener, hus- band of his client, . was arrested on a charge of interfering with an officer, but was discharged by the police judge.

SUES ON GROUND THAT CONDUCTORS ARE ALSO GUARDS Woman Asks Damages From Street Railway Company Be- cause She Was Attacked. The-rule of the United Raitways that conductors on pay-as-you-enter cars shall stay in their compartments is at- tacked in a suit filed Saturday by Mrs. Mary Schrimpf of 34445 Virginia avenue against the United Rallways for $10,000. She alleges she was struck in the moutn by a drunken man Aug. 8 on a Grand avenve car. The petition argues that the rule re- quiring conductors t stay in the box- like compartment prevents them from seeing all that happens in the car an‘ makes them unable to protect passen- gers from injury. The further allegation is made that the company is Hable for «permitting an, intoxicated mam to remain on a street car if he becomes offensive and abusive, and that it is Mable in durrages to any passenger who is injured by the man’s actions. ‘Mrs. Schrimpf is 26 years old, and is the wife of Frank Schrimpf, an electrician.

The Mexican , Embassy here had no advices whatever _of John Lind’s note; it had not been _ advised of its contents by the State Department here and Embassy officials expected to receive it, if at all, from Minister Gamboa in Mexico City. Publication Is Withheld, Publication of this Governments views as set out in the note is being withheld for the present, at the re- quest of the Huerta government, that it be first permitted to go over ‘the communication. Secretary Bryan's - plan is to publish the contents simul- \ taneously in Washington and Mexico “. City later and probably with the ac- * quiescence of Huerta. * The Semate Fcreign Relations Com- + mittee again today discussed phases -of the Mexican situation and the ‘scope of the report by the special _investigating committee of which Senator Smith of Michigan was chairman. The committee directed that this re- ‘ port and an additional report by Sena- 4 tor Fall should be laid before the en- » tire Foreign Relations Committee, prob- ‘ably next ‘week, for decision whether they shall be submitted to the Senate. None of the pending resolutions on the Mexican affairs was acted upon. » The committee instructed Chairman .-Bacon by a formal resolution to insist that all Mexico resolutions introduced ‘In the Senate hereafter be referred. to the committee before being acted on by the Senate. Republican Senators did not vote for the resolution, but did not op- pose its adoption. Senator Lodge called at the State De- partment today and conferred with Sec- retary Bryan about the Mexican situ- ation but he refused to indicate what phase. Carranza Deteat Reported, Gen. Venustiano Caranza, Constitution- alist leader in Northern Mexico, with a large number of his troops, now is in Durango, according to State Depart- ment dispatches today, having retreated westward after a reported defeat near Torreon, where about 2000 of his revolu- tionist followers were killed. Carranza had not been heard from since July 2. Gilbert Duthie of El Paso, reported to have been kidnaped and held for ran- som by followers of Maximo Castillo, has been liberated. PLAN FOR GAMBOA IN HUERTA’S JOB John Lind Reported to Favor Change to Clear Way for Coming Election. MEXICO CITY, Aug. 146.—John Lind, President Wilson’s envoy, has had sev- eral meetings with Frederico Gamboa, Minister of Foreign Relations, which have deen most pleasant and cor- dial. It is said that Lind is urg- ing Gamboa to become Provisional President and this would bring about recognition from Washington. Huerta could then go before the people as a candidate. President Huertadoes not fail to ap- preciate that what the United States thas thus done in this case is only the first step of several which President Wilson has decided to take, if neces- sary. How far this realization may in- fluence his attitude, now that he has the President's message, remains to be geen. Some belief is entertained that the firm tenor of the message, together with certain parts of its contents, which are regarded as noc altogether pleasing to the present head of the Mexican Gov- ernment, may evoke declarations from Huerta which will not tend to make less tense the present relations between the two nations. It is too much to expect that Huerta will accept without demur- ring the obligations which the United States would impose upon him as the price of recognition. The decision to transmit the message to Huerta through the agency of the Foreign Office, instead of a personal meeting between Lind and President Huerta, was reached Thursday nicht at @ two-hour conference In which Lind and Minister Gamboa participated. The original arrangement, which compre- hended Gamboa's presence at the em- baesy, was altered on account of the slight indisposition of the Foreign Min- ister. Lind went to Gamboa's residence in Moror, unaccompanied either by Charge O'Shaughnessy or any other member of the embassy corps. $12, Niagara Falls & Return, $12 Aue. 23. via Clover Leaf Route.

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.—James A: Patten, whose deals in grain and cotton in the last decade have attracted world-wide attention, is once more the central fig- ure in a speculation that is causing the corn pit on the Board of Trade to boil with excitement, Patten started to buy corn three weeks ago, when the first reports that hot weather and drouth were damaging the crop began to come in. His paper profits at the present time are said t) be at least $500,000. According to reports, he is now in pos- session of contracts calling for the de- MNvery of more than 56,000,000 bushels in September. As there are less than 1,000,000 bushels of contract corn avail- able for delivery in Chicago public ele- vators and the farmers are refusing to ship their old corn to market pending the outcome of the new crop, it begins to look ap if those who have sold for next month’s delivery are in a tight place. September corn has Jumped to 75 cents on the Board of Trade, the highest price of the year. The market recalled some of Patten’s former deals, so intense was the excitement accompanying the ad- vance. ; GIRL SHOT ON PORCH OF COUNTRY HOME Father Does Not Believe Recent Juvenile Quarrel Is Respon- sible for Accident. Opal Wood, 7-year-old daughter of Charles Wood of McKnight and La- due roads, St. Louis County, was mysteriously shot Friday afternoon while she was standing on the front porch at her home. She was struck by several buckshot and her pet dog, with which she was playing, received several of the shot. Her injuries are not serious. Wood and his wife returned from Clayton late in the afternoon and were standing in the lot unhitching the horse when they heard a shot. Wood saw a puff of smoke from a cornfield about 75 feet from the house. Thinking one of his children had fired the gun he ran into the field and called to them but got no answer. When“he came ‘back to the porch he found that the girl and dog had been injured, Wood told the Clayton authorities that he has no idea who fired the shot. He said recently his children quarreled with the children of a neighbor, but that he did not believe the enmity would cause the girl to ete MN am oe 3 attacked, AK RRO oo SVR coe —Copy right by U: Underwood | & & Underwood. a ane SULZER AND GLYNN IGNORE EACH OTHER AS GOVERNOR Indications Are That No Change in Situation Will Occur Before Legislature Meets on Tuesday—Glynun Declines Court Trial. * By Associated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 18.—All nego- tiations toward having the courts de- cide wha is the Governor of New York were declared off today. For the third consecutive day, William TSilzer, “the” fmpeached™ Governrer,—and Martin H. Glynn, who was elected Lieutenant-Governor, occupied of- fices in the Capitol, each claiming to be the chief executive. Indications were that the deadlock would last until the meeting of the Legislature next Tuesday, if not longer. Neither claimant endeavored to in- terfere in any way with the other. Each seemed to be marking time waiting for the other to take the offensive. The breach between Sulzer and Glynn is complete and there will be no further conference between their counsel, so far as is known, on the question of sub- mitting the controversy to the courts. D. Cady Herrick, Sulzer’s chief counsel, in so announcing today, said that he did not expect to make public any plans of lawyers for the impeached executive. ‘“‘We are preparing our case for trial,”’ Herrick said. Interviewers asked Herrick what the next move would be. “I don’t know that there will be a next move,” he replied. The proposal of William Sulzer, the impeached Governor, that he and his rival lay their respective claims before the courts for speedy settlement came to grief last night. Lieutenant-Governor Glynn, who claims that he is Acting Governor by virtue of Sulzer’s impeach- ment, notified Sulzer that he had no in- tention of asking any court save the court for the trial of impeachment to decide the question. Thought Settlement Near, Glynn's refusal places the entire situ- ation at sea again. Indications late yes- terday afternoon were that there would be an amicable adjustment. Lawyer: representing the contestants conferred regarding possible methods of taking the issue into court and it Was generally expected that a wiy of doing this would be devised. Glynn's refusal to arbitrate was a distinct surprise to Sulzer’s friends. “It is beyond my power to barter away any of the functions attached ‘o the office in which I am placed by your impeachment,” reads Glynn’s reply to Sulzer’s suggestion. “Any attempt on my part to do so or to stipulate a meth- od by which it might be uone would properly place me in the position you Cons tipation Vanishes Forever oe cre ee Genuine cout bear Signature a Phy ewe ek C now occupy—that of being impeached for malfeasance in office. I cannot and will not attempt to do it. “The decision of the court of im- peachment, once made, is binding on every court and every person in the State and must be so respected and treated. Any attempt to interfere with the jurtsdiction of the proceedings of such court of impeachment by any member of any lower court would be as futile as would any attempt of a Justice of the Peace to enjoin the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals from exercising his functions as such Chief Judge. “I hold myself in readiness to perform every function of the office of Governor except in so far as I am restrained by vour illegal action or by physical force.” No one was willing to forecast this morning what the day,.would bring forth. Among the reports current was one that Glynn expected to go in person tu the executive chamber and attempt to perform the duties of Governor. Sulzer asserted that he did not intend to relin- quish any of the rights of the govern- orship. The words “physical force” were brought into the controversy for the first time by Glynn’s letter. Last night was the worst passed by Mrs. Sulzer since she became ill of a nervous disorder several days ago, but her condition this morning was less alarming, according to bulletins issued by the attending physicians. A bulletin prepared by Dr. Abrahams, a New York specialist, says: “I arrived at the bedside at 1 o’clock this morning. Mrs. Sulzer’s condition was as follows: “Temperature and pulse increasing; she complains of headache and mental depression and had two fainting spells. She sleeps restlessly and the little sleep was increased by sedatives.”’ $35--New York and Return~$35 Pennsylvania Lines. Ticket office Tenth and Olive sts. Families of Three Lead in England.

Prayers for Rain Are Asked for in 2 States KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 16 RAYERS for rain were asked - for in Kansas and Missouri by citizens and clergy. In Kansas hundreds of persons wrote to Gov. Hodges asking him to issuo & proclamation calling for a day of public prayer. The Governor, however, declined. “IT believe in the efficacy of prayer,” said he, “but not in the case of flood or drouth.” Bishop J. J. Hennessey, of the Roman Catholic diocese of Wichi- ta, Kan., issued an order that on next Sunday an hour should be given in each church in the dlo- cese for special devotions and “fer- vent prayer to our Blessed Lord to terminate the present unus- ually protracted dry spell.” By Associated Press. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 16.—Heavy showers last night and early today re- lHeved conditions in parts of the heat and drouth-stricken regions of Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma, but the rains were far from general and in most in- stances inadequate. In one section it is said only a 24-hour ‘“‘soaking’”’ rain can alleviate osntirely hardships to drouth. Where wells and streams are dry, a heavy precipitation is regarded necessary to replace the exhausted wa- ter supply. Temperatures that for 12 days have hovered above the 100 mark, fell to- day in Southern Kansas and Northern Oklahoma because of showers and clouds, but according to the United States Weather Bureau here, there were evidences of a thirteenth day of extreme heat generally over Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma. Inch of Rain at Some Points. Arkansas City, Kan., reported heavy rain falling this morning over.a wide section of Southern Kansas. The tem- perature at Arkansas City was 15 de- grees below yesterday's. Hutchinson, Kan., reported rain, amounting in some places in the vicinity to nearly an inch. Northern Oklahoma has attained great relief through showers that began yes- terday afternoon and continued today. Light showers fell in this city yester- day in the midst of bright sunshine. The principal benefit furnished was the cooling of the atmosphere and burning pavements. Hundreds of children and in many instances their parents rushed into the street and stood in the rain. There was not the usual scurrying to save hats :.nd gowns. trangers became as affable as friends at sight of the first rain drops here in three weeks. Drought in Northern and Eastern Kansas and most of Missouri, continued unabated. Springfield, Mo., which has had less than half its normal rainfall since April 1, faced the possibility of a failure of its water supply. City au- thorities sought to find wells or springs to which they might lay emergency pipes to provide a fire supply. In prac- tically all the Springfield church, by agreement, prayers for rain will be of- fered at 4:30 this afternoon. Water by Tank Traina, In Southeastern Kansas and South- western Missouri many mining towns stMl are suffering from want of water. Pittsbury, Kan., and Joplin, Mo., are supplying many of these points with water shipped in tank trains. St. Joseph, Mo., reported increasing damage from drouth. Fruit growers of that district, who had expected a heavy crop of apples, say the apples now are dropping from the trees immature and that the late crop may be a total loss. Topeka suffered the twelfth hot night during which the minimum temperature has exceeded 75. A trainload of water is being sent from Topeka every day tu supply railway shops in Horton, Kan. Wichita, Kan., reported showers this morning after an oppressively hot night. The heat through the night was 80 stifling that few attempted to sleep in- doors. There was a breeze, but it was so hot that many persons turned on the lawn sprinklers and slept on the lee side of them for rhe sake of water- cooled air. Rain was reported in Kingman and Harp counties of Kansas last nigh* An inch of water tell at Wellington, Kan., half an inch at Sedgwick and a shower in Butler County. Hand-Picked Catfish. Hand-picked catfish are being enjoyed by persons in Eastern Jackson County as a by-product of the drouth. Most of the streams have shrunk to standing pools and the fish have been driven to close quarters. Experienced fishermen do not hesitate to wade into these pools, feel under the edges of the rocks and capture the fish in their hands.

SE a oo ‘Stove, Ravge Others Leave England. LONDON, Aug. 16.—The British Gov- ernment, believing that the militant suf- frage movement is dying out, has made it known that it will not oppose the de- parture of the suffragettes to other countries. It is stated that there are not now over forty militant suffragettes remaining in the kingdom. At the recent gathering in Hyde Park 100,000 nonmilitant suffragettes weer in attendance. The departure of Miss An- nie Kenney to the Continent a few days ago and the fact that Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst was permitted to sail for France today, are therefore taken to in- dicate a decline of the movement. Mrs. Pankhurst, the militant suffra- gist leader, bid farewell to England last night.- She crossed the channel from Southampton to Havre. She had been put on “license’’ under the “cat and mouse’ act and the police did not try to prevent her leaving. Mrs. Pankhurst was sentenced to a term of three years penal servitude on a charge of conspiracy at the London sessions on April 3 this year. In a speech in the court she declared she would fight to the end, and since her condemnation she has compelled the authorities to release ner on a number of occasions owing to fear: that she would die from the effects of “hunger and thirst strike.” Miss Christabel Pankhurst, daughter of Mrs. Pankhurst and chief organizer of the militant suffrage organization, has been living in Paris for some months, She directs from there the campaign of the militant women in En- gland. Mrs. Pankhurst has gone away for what her friends call a “rest cure’ which they say will probably be extend- ed to the United States. Miss Annie Kenney, another militant, preceded Mrs. Pankhurst to the con- tinent and it is expected that Miss Sylvia Pankhurst will follow as soon as she has sufficiently recovered from her latest “hunger and thirst strike.” The police authorities will not attempt to bar the egress of the militant lead- ers and would in fact be only too de- lighted to assist them to emigrate.

Carafiol told the police Clochewsky had been dis- charged and that he stood about the doorway loudly cursing the employes and officials of the firm. Clochewsky said that he was dis- charged Saturday morning because he sympathized with the striking garment workers, and that Carafiol called . the police after he had demanded that h» be immediately paid his wages due up to the time of his discharge. He was charged with disturbing the peace. W. W. Crockett, a negro special of- ficer, was shot in the forehead Friday afternoon when he was attempting to quell a disturbance between garment workers and strikers at Fourteenth and Morgan streets. He received a scalp wound not considered serious by phy- sicians. Crockett and another negro special officer, C. E.

So I agreed to write a story of 20 years a House employe, but it was expressly understood I was not to write it until after this investigation.’’ “And you receive $75 a week?’ ‘Yes, sir.” “Didn’t you tell receive the salary for Mulhall?” “No, wir, I did not.” “Didn’t you tell Irvine that if Rep- resentative McDermott would pay you $325 he owed you, you would not say a word to hurt him?’ demanded Smith. “Did you intend to suppress all you have told if McDermott paid you the $326 ?” “Absolutely not,’’ insisted McMichaels: “I intended to do just what I am doing, tell the unvarnished truth.”’ McMichaels testified today that the pawnbrokers raised $7500 to defeat the bill and McDermott was to get $6000. He swore that the conference at which that was arranged took place in April, 1911. Attorney Smith for McDermott brought out that the loan shark bill was not introduced until May and at that time did not include pawnbrokers. Says McDermott Got $7500. ‘When did McDermott tell you about getting money for the loan shark bill?’ asked Smith. “Shortly after it became a law. I said to him, ‘Mac, on the level, what did you get out of the loan shark bill?’ He said, ‘I got mine—well, it was about $7500.’ ”” Pressed to fix a date for that conver- Irvine you were to corroborating -_—----——— — eee Ces UncleSamsLast Bie Land Opening 1,345,000 Fertile Acres Open to White Settlement on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation—Montana ee ee ene Baia Railway ews 2 Information FREE wee today for free illus- Register at Glasgow, Havre or Great Falls, Montana Daily—September ! to 20, inclusive.

Mulhall know it,” said Moe- Micheals. “I communicated with Mul- hall. The amendment was offered and ruled out on a point of order. “McDermott was anxious for me te get word to Col. Muthall. I told him that I did.” “How long have you known Harris Parker?’ asked Chairman Garrett. “Almost ever since I came here,” said ‘the witness. “In 1909 he told me that he was working for Mulhall, getting money for it, and that the Colonel was a good fellow and would pay me I know that Harry and Neal Smith were paid, for I paid them once. I gave Harry $20 and Neal $8. The Colonel had given $100. I kept the $50 for my- self.” Got Room for Mulhall. “Did McDermott know of your em- ployment by Col. Mulhali?” “Yes sir. I told him about it in 1910 sation, McMichaels declined to be more epecific. He testified he knew McDer- mott had invested $6000 in an airship company. The attorney wanted details about the money McMichaels swore he was getting from Mulhall and dividing with McDer- mott, but the witness insisted there had been so many checks he was not clear about any particular transaction. “McDermott went to Col. Mulhall one day and said: ‘Colonel, you ought to have Mac’s salary raised to $100 a month, then I could get $50 of at.” ”” said McMichaels. Attorney Smith led McMichacls back to certain dinners in Washing- ton and asked him about McDermott’s share in them. “He seldom blew his’n,” said Mc- Michaels. “He bought drinks, yes, but I think the gentleman himself will admit he didn’t pay for them.” The story told by McMichaels yester- day was graphic, breezy and highly en- tertaining. Many members of the House were present, but the most interested person in the room was Representative McDermott, who sat within 20 feet of McMichaels, facing him. Sometimes his face, flushed, was bowed below the edge of tre table. Is a Tinner by Trad “T am a tinner by trade, — IT worked as a mechanic when I first came here,” said McMichaels at the outset. “I com- \menced to work for the House 22 years ago as a folder. A Pennsylvania Con- gressman stood sponsor for me for years. James T. McDermott became my sponsor in 1911. I was chief page and doorkeeper in the press gallery and ele- vator conductor in succession. I was chief page about seventeen or eighteen years on the Democratic side.’’ “When did you first meet Representa- tive McDermott?” asked Chairman Gar- rett. “I met McDermott March 4, when’ he was sworn in for the Sixtieth Congress. After that McDermott and I were to- gether every day. I helped him in his office and qpened and answered many letters to him. Most of his constituents seemed to be hard up; they requested everything from shoes to money for house rent. He said most of the re- quests were holdups. “I was paid irregularly by McDermott. Sometimes I got. $10 and at others $20. McDermott was always hard pressed. He got me to collect his clerk hire money before it was due. The clerk of the House would date the check the first of the coming month, when, it was due. and I would get Heidenheiner, a pawn- shop man, to cash it. From December, 1907, to July, 1913, I served McDermott as clerk. When Congress was not in session I had charge of McDermott's office.”’ “Did Mr.‘ McDermott let you open all of his mail?” Brother-in-Law Franked Mail. “Yes, with.one exception. He told me when I recognized a letter from his brother-in-law, Mr. Fleming, who was then in Chicago, not to open it, but to turn it over to him. I always knew the letters from Mr. Fleming, tor they were franked with the McDermott frank.”’ The witness told of being introduced to Mulhall, and said: “Col. Mulhall asked me what I did for a living. I told him, and he said he would like to have me do something for him. He said that he would make it worth while for me. The first thing he asked me to do was to send out some Congressional Records. He gave me the ‘met in the names of officers of the N. A. M., and Mi ‘told me to see that they got the Rec- im} ord daily. He came back in three days and asked me if I had sent the Ree- ords. I told him that I had—but I had not. “All right,” he said, handing me two $20 bills and one $10 bill. He told me that I would get that much every month while Congress was in session. He left and I sent the Records. I mailed them under franks every day until I got some Congressmen to put them on the regu- lar list for: me. “In 1909 Col. Mulhall and McDermott latter’s room and McDer mott talked rough to Col. Mulhall. The N. A. M. and Col. Mulhall were pre- paring to fight McDermott in his dis- trict. The Colonel told me so. He had prepared several hundred letters to man- ufacturers and others to get them to oppose McDermott’s renomination. I told the Colonel if he wanted to trim McDermott, who was a friend of mine, I would quit him. I got Mulhall to withdraw the letters. McDermott was renominated.”’ What He Dig for Mulhall. “Tell everything you were employed by ‘Mr. Mulhall to do,” sald Chairman Gar- _ rett. “TY was to send records, bills and other documents, to supply Information as to what committees were doing, tell ‘who was speaking before committees, ‘what bills were introduced, and do any- thing else that would help the N. A. M. I lived up to my agreement. “Col. Mulhall told me that Emery might call dp et any time, and asked going = 3 , when he came back from his primaries. “He said then that Col. Mulhall was not such a damned old skate after all. “Soon after meeting Mulhall, McDer- mott got charge of a basement room in the Capito! which had over the door ‘Room of the House Committee on Ex- | penditures in the Department of Com- merce and Labor.’ “Representaive Roth- that committee but used the rooms in the House Office Building. “McDermott got three keys to the room and gave me one and Col. Mul- hall one. He told me that thereafter when Col. Mulhall wanted to see him to. take him to that room and notify him and he would go down. He said he did not want to be seen with Mul- hall. “Mulhall, McDermott and myself used to confer there, and then adjourn to Fritz Reuter’s. “The room was used for conferences of the kind described and as a place tv sleep off drunks. I slept off many a drunk there. It was provided with a telephone, to be used anywhere in the city.”’ “Did you know if Mulhall paid Mc- Dermott any money?” Sat Down Broke; Got Up With Cash. “I did not actually know it by seeing it passed,” said the witness. “But not being blind or a fool, I knew that two men, McDermott and myself, neither of whom had a cent, would sit down at a table at Fritz Reuter’s, and a third, Col. Mulhall, would come in, and both McDermott and myself would have plenty of money when we got up. “When we arose, I was afraid to let McDermott know how much I had ani he was afraid to let me know what he had. I have an affidavit from Sam Regan, barkeeper at Fritz Reuter’s then. saying that McDermott used to give him 20 bucks to keep and kepttwo bucks himself, so that if I wanted to borrow from him he could say that he did not have but $2. That is the game we worked.” Saw McDermott Get $100. McMichaels told of conferences at Fritz Reuter’s with Col. Mulhall, Mc- Dermott and Louis Fernandez, a Span- ish Count. The Count saw McMichaeis receive $100 from Col. Mulhall in the fall of 1911, said the witness. “One night at Fritz Reuter’s,’’ said McMichaels, “Congressman McDermott, Mulhall, myself and others drew up a resolution to investigate the N. A. M using the correspondence of Col. Mul- hall as a basis. ‘“*‘McDermott was to see Speaker Clark, majority Leader Underwood and Mr Mann about introducing the resolution. Nothing ever came of it. McDermott said he was told by Clark, Underwood and Mann that it was not the time to take up the subject. These men have said that they never heard of the reso- lution. I don’t know what McDermott did about it; he would rather Iie than eat,’’ added McMichaels. “IT was running an elevator in the House Office Building, when someone asked me if I had seen the New York World in which Col. Mulhall had ovlown up. I got a paper and read the story and sent for McDermott. “McDermott came and we had a lonz talk. “ ‘My God, I am ruined,’ Dermott. ** ‘So am I,’ said I. **You think anybody will believe that old guy?’ said McDermott. ‘***What shall I do?’ I asked. “*Go down the river to the ark,’ he. ‘““*Why should [| go away?" MeDermott. “ ‘So they won't catch you,’ said he. “I looked him tin the eye and told him what I thought of him; that I had shared my salary with him. “He said: ‘You go down the river to the Ark.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. 1A true American sentiment recognizing the dignity of labor and the fact that honor lies in honest tofl. _ Contented labor is an element of national pros- perity. Ability to work constitutes the capital and the wage of labor the income of a vast num- ber of our population and this interest should be jealously protected. In their present struggle our fellow workmen are not asking unreasonable indulgence, but as intelligent citizens they seek the same consider- ation which those demand who have other in- terests at stake. They should receive their full share of the care and attention of those who make and execute the laws to the end that the wants and needs of the employers and employed shall be alike sub- served and the prosperity of the country, the common heritage of both, be advanced. As re- lated to this subject we wish to call the atten- tion of our fellow workmen. While we should not discourage the immigration of those whe come to acknowledge allegiance to our Govern- ment and add to our population, yet, as a means of protection to our workingmen a different rule should provide concerning those who, if they do come, or are brought to our land do not in- tend to become Americans, but will injuriously compete with those justly entitled to our ele of labor. In @ free country-the curtailment of the abso- lute rights of its citizens should only be such as is essential to the peace and good order of the community. The limit between the proper subjects of governmental control and those which can be more fittingly left to the moral sense and self-imposed restraint of the citizen should be carefully kept in view.

Watch newspapers, = pended or whether Martin Glynn is act- ing Governor of New York hinges upon the validity of the impeachment voted by the Assembly. The main legal question at issue is whether the Assembly in special session ernor except upon recommendation of the Governor. If Mr. Sulzer is deter- mined to rely on technicalities for his defense rather than to meet the charges of corruption and criminality brought against him, he unquestionably has 4 cake to which the court of last resort will be compelled to give most serious attention. In enumerating the duties of the Gov- ernor the Constitution provides that he shall have the power to convene the Legislature on extraordinary occasions and that “at extraordinary sessions no subject shall be acted upon except suc” as the Governor may recommend for consideration.” Impeachment is one of the exclusive and absolute powers of the Assembly. The Assembly is the sole judge of the grounds for impeachment and may pre-/waim fer an tmpeachment for any reasons it sees fit, but may it prefer an impeach- ment whenever the Legislature is law- fully in session? Is impeachment one of its inherent powérs? Or may it im- peach the Governor only during a regu- lar session, except by the Governor's own initiative? It is plain enough that if the impeach- ment is valid, Mr. Glynn is acting Gov- ernor. The language of the Constitu- tion on that point is as clear and definite as language can well be. But if the impeachment is not valid, Mr. Sulzer is as much the Governor of New York as he was the day he took the oath of of- fice.

Copyright, the Paget Newspaper Service. al en By LEONARD MERRICK. HAVE often said that I could not be your wife, but I would never tell you why. Tonight, suddenly, I want to tell you why, I want to write to you. I wonder if you will understand. You heave heard how my marriage ended. For many months after I di- yorced him I ceuld concentrate my thoughts on nothing but my wrongs. I had no child, no interests, the hurricane of pain and jealousy swept me day and night. Then resentment grew less vehe- ment—faded into lassitude. By very slow degrees I concerned myself with other things. ’ ‘Later, I began to dwell on scenes of my brief happiness with him, and though remembrance made me cry for the irrecoverable, to remember was sweet. Moments which had been trivial while they lasted assumed in retrespect an air of exquisite companionship. It ‘was my weakness to recall some com- monplace incident and indulge myself by reanimating its minutest details; the hours that I lived most vividly were the hours that I lived in looking back. Ewen when I found pleasufe in s0- ciety again, recollection remained a secret joy. I could forget by this time, and amuse myself, had my vanities and vexations, was socially like any other woman, entertained in ordinary ways, but clandestinely I still revisited the past. So 18 years went by—and, un- guspected by my dearest friends, I ‘ecommuned mentally with a young husband, who, in these reveries, grown no older. I tried to bear in mind that he was older—much older than I—but I could think of him only as I had seen him last. I repeated, marvelling, that he must be over 40 now, but in my mem- ortes I laughed and talked about the personality that I had known. Al- though I told myself that I might pass him by unrecognized, the face that I smiled to in my visions was the face of the young man that he used to be. I believe you have sometimes won- @eread who your rival was. He was the man that my dtvorced husband once had been. ‘Last September I was in Pour- in the hotel, glancing at an English paper, I read that he had just arrived in Paris. I meant to leave for Paris, myself, towards the end of the week, and I sat thinking how very soon he and I would be passing through the same ‘streets. Doubtless we had drifted had _. Qlose to each other many times before, but I had not known it, and some- how——-__ Well, the impulse was very strong, I wrote to him! ) “I do not know,” I wrote, “whether it ‘will pleasé, or distress you to hear from me. If my letter is unwelcome, burn and forget it. Speaking for my- self, all ili-feeling died long ago. Time has taught me to think of our first year together and obliterate the rest. Our marriage was blunder, but—-so much am I changed from the girl who was your wife—that seems to me, today, no reason why we should never meet again as friends, I shall be at Meurice’s on Saturday. If @ reconciliation would not be odious to you, if there is no one to resent - $t, will you come to see me?” When the letter was posted, I said t I had committted an imbecility, but I am not sure that I believed my- gelf. At any rate, I rejoiced half an hour afterwards. By and by, of course, I was sorry again. And 80 on. Then, on the morrow, something hap- of poems on a chair in the courtyard. Have you ever read any 0of his poems? But I suppose poetry is not). ' fm your line, you great, strong, practical builder of big bridges? On the fly-leaf he had scribbled, “‘To Janet Herbert- gon, from her sincere friend, Gilbert Owen.” I had picked up the book eager to read some of it, but I fell to dream- ing over the fly-leaf, wondering who Janet Herbertseon was. While I wondered, she returned to her seat. “Have I taken your book?” “Oh, thank you!” She was a girl to whom I had already spoken once or twice; I had not known her name, and I don’t suppose that she knew mine. I call her a girl because was unmarried, but she could not been more than four or five years younger than myself—a girl with a fine and abundant health, but, to my at least, no features worth men- Her eyes were shallow, and her hair came near to being sandy. Most of her remarks were prefaced by “Of course,” and she expressed herself in very incisive tones. I had noticed her one day with an easel among the gorse at Varengeville Plage, and I set her down as an amateur, with means. “You didn’t go to the Links, then,” I said. “Not this afternoen, I was too much “No, I only just saw it.

I saw her shudder. “Emerson was one ef the world’s teachers. A propos of the impressions to be derived from Nature, he said that a tourist could never take away from any place more than she brought to it. Of course it’s the same with ‘a reader; if she hasn't the receptivity, she cdn’‘t receive.’’ This person educating me! eae wanted to hear about him: I submitted. “I think I follow you,” I murmured. She unbent. “If you like I'l) lend it to you presently?” “I should be delighted; if you can spare it?’ “Yes, I shan’t read after dinner. In the evening you always play that idio- tic game, though, don’t you? Well, you can have it in the morning.” “If you’re sure I shouldn’t be rob- bing you?’ “Quite. Besides, I’ve read most of it already, in manuscript.” “Really? It must be very fascinating to know a poet so well as that!” “Oh, I know Gilbert Owen very well! If you're staying next week, you'll see him here;” she tittered self-consciously. “I’ve told him that the rest would do him good. **Here?’”’ “Yes, but not till Wednesday, I didn’t want him till I had finished my picture. Of course, I shan’t have much time for my work after he comes.” “I shall be gone by then,’ I said. “What a pity! I suppose there’s no chance of his coming before?” “Oh no, he'll come on the day I fixed.”’ Wednesday?” **Yes.”’ “To oblige me, you .might let him come a little sooner,” I laughed. “I’m afraid I can’t do that. You had better stay.’ “I wish it were possible. You must be immensely proud of your influence?” “Oh, I don’t know. I find myself quite forgetting he’s famous, and think- ing of him simply as a dear friend.” In a pause I glanced at her left hand. There was no ring on ft, but I knew that she foresaw one there. She turned a page of his book, and for a minute or two we didn’t speak again. Across the blaze of begonias the musicians in their red coats were fiddling drowsily, and, inside, the croupier called ‘Numero deux!”’ “What's he like?’ “Eh? Oh, it’s so difficult to say what anyone is like. Do you mean his ap- pearance, or his temperament?’ “I think I meant his temperament. “Amusing? No, I should scarcely de- scribe him as ‘amusing.’ Of course he can be very brilliant when he meets a foeman worthy of his steel, but his nature is a wistful one. He has suf- fered deeply, and it has left its mark.” “I think I remember reading some- thing,” I said. “Wasn't there a case of some sort?’ “He made a very unhappy marriage years ago,”’ she said sharply; “his wife was a vapid girl who didn’t understand him. He was very much to be pitied.’’ r I nodded. I could have struck her across her conceited face. “It must have been hideous,” she added, “for a man of his intellect to be married to a fool.’’ The begonias were making my eyes ache. “Awful!” I muttered. I won- dered what in the world he could find to admire in her. “Well, you shal! be left in peace. I’ve a sudden fancy for cing. It’s my lucky number.” To Be Ended in the Post-Dis- patch on Monday. Clouds and Weather. EALLY there are scarcely any clouds of bad omen, except the rapid cirrus and the cirro-cumu- lus. Those dark gray and biack clouds, those nimbus and cumulo-nim- bus, as they are called, seen in time of rain or storm, do not announce a de- pression, they accompany it; they are not a prognostication, but a manifesta- tion of bad weather. Cirrus clouds, so valuable to the fore- caster, may serve also at night when we cannot see them directly. When they pass across the face of the moon they are the cause of the “halo” or “ring,” as the case may be. The sight of such @ halo around the moon is proof of the presence of cirrus and generally means a change in the weather. Certain other symptoms he Sagacity of the weather moma ey Look at a train rushing across the country. The steam escapes in white clouds from the locomotive’s smoke- stack, but it may issue in several dif- ferent ways. If it forms a long, flocky streak, recalling the appearance of the cumulus clouds upon the hori- zon, it shows that the vapor is con- densing easily in air that is therefore humid, and this humidity is always favorable to rain. If, on the contrary, the puffs of vapor dissipate in the air almost immediately on issuing from the smokestack this means that the con- densed drops are evaporating rapidly so the dry air does not present a condition favorable to rain. It is therefore a sign that permits us to hope for fine weather.

I ALWAYS [GoOuT OF Town EVERY STORIES OF FAMOUS NOVELS st agar VENNER” was one of the -first medical problem novels and was by Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes. HE was a_ splendid scowling beauty, black browed, with a flash of white teeth. She was tall and slender, but rounded, with a peculiar undulation of movement. Black, piercing eyes, not large; * * * diamond eyes!’’ That is Dr. Holmes’ description of El- sie Venner, one of the strangest hero- ines in literature. Elsie’s father was the rich man of Rockland, a little New England village with a huge mountain behind it.- The mountain was alive with rattlesnakes. One ledge of rock was so infested with these reptiles that no villager dared set foot on it. They often spread terror by creeping down into Rockland itself. A rattlesnake 18 years earlier had bitten Elsie Venner’s mother. Stimulants and cautery had been em- ployed at once and Mrs. Venner had seemingly recovered from the bite. A few months later Elsie had been born. When the child was a few weeks old her mother died. Elsie grew to glorious womanhood, but from infancy she had stood apart and alone. She had no friends. The village was full of strange stories about her. For one thing, a hideous serpentine birthmark surrounded her neck; a mark she always covered with a necklace. Also her black “diamond” eyes had hypnotic, snakelike power. Her motions were snakelike, too. In winter she was dull and languid, seldom stirring from the fire. In the hot months of summer she seemed infused with weird power and energy. At such times she would vanish from home for days, and weuld roam alone on the mountains, treading fearlessly upon Rattlesnake Ledge and sleeping in its reptile-filled caves. Folks called her the “Snake Giri.” Elsie’s cousin, young Dick Venner, used to play with her as a child. But once when he made her angry she bit him on the wrist. A doctor was sum- moned in haste. And the wound was treated as though for rattlesnake bite. The bey got well, but the teeth marks were never effaced from his flesh. Another phase of Elsie’s condition was her hysterical dread of white ash leaves. This bore out the local tradition that rattlesnakes will never go near a white ash tree. 4 A governess was engaged for the way- ward girl. Elsie hated the governess and tried to poison her. Then it was decifed to send the girl to school. There she proceeded to try her hypnotic pow- be 4 = » a 4 aed SOO NS has sais ate . ee By ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE. form and come down to her desk. The assistant principal of the schoo! was a medical student, Bernard Lang- don—good looking, clever, kind of heart And Elsie fell in love with him. At first he did not notice this. Then he ignored it, for he felt ne spark of love for the uncanny girl. Indeed, he was inflicted by the nameless physical re- pulsion with which, in spite of her beauty, she inspired nearly everyone. This feeling was but intensified once when a rattlesnake was about to attack Langdon during a ramble on the moun- tain and was driven away by a look from Elsie Venner’s black eyes. Dick Venner came back to Rockland about this time, after a roving career in South America. Dudley Venner, his un- cle, Elsie’s father, was rich. By marry- ing Elsie the young adventurer would be made comfortable for life. So Dick wooed Elsie. She hated him. He saw she loved Langdon and he made fun of her for her cheice. She retaliated by trying to poison Dick, as she had tried to poison the governess. Dick’s suepi- cions were roused and he avoided the trap. But he saw that matters must come to a climax at once. And he decided to put the schoolmaster out of the way. He attempted one night to strangle Lang- don with a lariat he had brought from South America. Langdon frustrated the attempt and, with the help of a passing villager, captured and bound the would- be murderer. To spare his relatives’ feelings Dick was not prosecuted, but was packed off to regions unknown. Meantime, a subtle change had been taking place in Elsie. The family doc- tor explained it by saying the “rattle- snake” characteristics were dying out, leaving in her only the better side of her dual nature. But the evil element had taken so strong a hold upon her system that she could not survive its death. She pined away, very gradually; the hard, “diamond” light in her eyes being re- placed by a softer glow. At length she died. At her death they removed the golden necklace she had always worn to conceal the serpent on her throat. Her old nurse cried aloud: “The Lord be praised! He has taken away the mark. She's fit to meet His holy angels now!” An Exceptional Man. ILLIE: Pa, when has a man horse sense? Pa: When he can say: “Nay,” my — . 33 oe : : .

And the scien- tist, on his side, is always quite ready to furnish these explanations. But scientific explanations are hard to re- member and not of much practical use to any except those learned in science What most people need are not expla- nations of the facts, but the facts them- selves and what they portend. The former they can get by observation. The latter are nowhere so clearly and con- cisely given as in the old weather proverbs, now falling into undeserved disrepute. Prof. W. J. Humphreys of the United States Weather Bureau in an article entitled ‘“‘Seme Useful Weather Prov- erbs,” printed in the year book of the Department of Agriculture, has done a good deal to restore them to their right- ful place. Here are a few of the oldest and most famous, with Prof. Humphrey’s scien tific explanation of their truth. “Frost year, fruit year; year of snow, fruit will grow;” “A year of snow, a year of plenty” and “A late spring never deceives,” all three of which mean the same thing, are very easily explained. If the winter is a norma! one, with plenty of frost and snow, and spring comes at the right time, it is not possible for the fruit trees to blossom prematurely and be later killed by hard frost or destroyed by alternate . thaw- ing and freezing. Consequently, all thie proverb means, and its meaning is quite obvious, is that normal seasons mean normal fruft crops. Here is a still commoner one, and one that interests everybody: “A red sun has water in his eye.” A red sunset indicates the presence of rain elements. If the sky near the western horizon is yellow, greenish or any of these more delicate colors, it is a sign that there is less vapor conden- sation in the atmosphere than in the case of red, although the red does not indicate quite enough water vapor to cause rain. Here are the certain signs of rain in the evening sun: ° “Tf the sun set in gray, The next will be a rainy day. If the sun goes pale to bed, "Twill rain tomorrow, it is said.” The explanation of this phenomenon is simple. The space between our earth and the sun is filled with particles of dust. When the water droplets itn the atmosphere are #0 numerous as to sat- urate these particles the sky seems to be overcilouded with a uniform gray, for the sun is obscured. Rainfall is certain te follow this phenomenon, 87 Ee ee EE BALE RONEN, St eM But there are other and equally de- pendable signs of rain, such as the halos and coronas that sometimes surround the sun and moon. One of the proverbs in this class is: “The nearer the ring, the bigger the wet.’”’ These halos and ,coronas are caused by storm clouds. If they seem smal! it means that the clouds are the result of storm far distant. If, on the other hand, they seem nearer and therefore bigger, it indicates that the clouds are low down and that the storm is not far off. There is one set of proverbs, however, which Prof. Humphreys attacks, declar- ing there is no basis of truth in them. They are the proverbs relative to the influence of the moon on the weather. He says there is absolutely no connec- tion between that body and our weather phenomena beyond a small tidal effect on the atmosphere, which is recorded by the barometer. He grants, however, that the appear- ance of the moon may be taken as an indication of weather conditions. “Clear moon, frost soon.” ‘Moonlight night has the heaviest frost” and other proverbs of this class have a scientific foundation, for on clear nights the earth gtves out most of its heat and conse- quently, owing to the fall in the tem- perature, frost or dew is more probable than on other nights. . There is yet another proverb connect- ed with the moon: “Sharp horns do threaten windy weather.” When the horns of the moon are clearly discernible by the naked eye, it means that there is nothing in the atmosphere to obscure them. An atmos- phere as clear as this generally indi- cates that it has been swept by the winds in the upper ether, and these winds will probably reach the earth be- fore long. There are other proverbs too numerous to mention which are equally well founded and reliable. They are gener- ally the result of close observation on the part of those most interested in watching the signs and portents of the heavens, and, in very few cases, can science disprove them. Even in these cases the point is a matter of dispute not only between scfentist and old weather prophet, but between scientist and scientist as well. por a A - pan eo a him?

As a result of “Rabbit” Huggins’ protest against the unjust, unfair, un- mitigated and malicious ruling of Um- Dire Quigley in willfully robbing and taking away from Edward Konetchy, otherwise known as the “Big Train,” in broad daylight one perfectly good home run, President Lynch will in all probability promote Umpire Quigley to the rank (rank is right) of regular um- pire and decorate him” with the Iron Cross; whereas he ought to be indicted by the grand jury. * a * For such is the esteem in which our ball clubs are held by the umpires. e - 7 ® Rule No. 1 in the unwritten law of umpires is: “In case of doubt sodk St. Louis.”’ *. . +.

Magilligan Boxing Editor San Francisco Bulletin. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16.—St. Louis boxers broke even here last night with the San Francisco boys in three fat- tling good contests. Harry Trendall, the Mound City light- weight, beat Willie Robinson of San Francisco in a fast bout. Leo Kelly drew with Louis Rees of this city, and Roy Moore of Frisco beat Francis Hen- nessy to the decisiou. Trendall’s work was the most finished of the visiting boxers, though Kelly’s rough-house tactics won him a. home here and he will be popular with local ring goers in the future should he de- cide to stay here. Though little Hennessy was beaten, the lad made a strong impression on the fans and was given a rousing cheer as he left the ring. Frisco Rules Bother St. Louisans. The one-arm-free rules that prevailed here seemed to work against the St. Louisans. They appeared to be boys used to clean-break fighting and thus were at a slight disadvantage boxing the Frisco men under the rules that pre- vall here. Hennessy suffered the most from the local interpretation of the rules. At long- distance fighting Hennessy had much the better of the going, but when the boys buckled in Moore was far to@ strong for the Mound City bantam. Kelly was the only one of the St. Louis boys to score a knockdown. Leo crossed a nice right to Rees’ chin in the first round of their bout and dropped him for the count of eight. But Rees came back and boxed himself into a draw. Kelly-Rees Bout Spectacular. The bout between Kelly and Rees was the most spectacular of the evening and the chances are that the pair will be matched again. Trendall won all the way in his bogt with Willie Robinson, the hard-hitting San Franciscan. Trendall outboxed Rob- ingson all the way ana while he never had the San Franciscan in serious trou- ble, he gave him a boxing lesson. The concensus of opinion among the critics was that while Trendall showed considerable science, he did not display either enough boxing or hitting ability to make him a serious contender in a ®- round bout with the real top-notch lightweights. None of the St. Louis boys expressed any dissatisfaction over the decisions. OTHER LEAGUE STANDINGS FEDERAL LEAGUE. 4UB. . L. Pet | t Indiana’olis 57 85 .630/ST.

McLoughlin, the 23-year-old tennis cham- pion; R. Norris Williams, the 19-year-o.d Harvard freshman, and Capt. Harold Hackett of the American tennis team were greeted with cheers as the steam- ship France reached her slip yesterday. Robert D. Wrenn, president of the United States Lawn Tennis Associa- tion and many Jlusty-lunged tennis sharps and athletes, were on the French Line pier at the foot of West Fiftieth street to welcome the team which brought back the Davis (St. Louis) tro- phy to America. They hugged Me- Loughlin as if he were a girl. All the members of the team said they believed America was going to keep the Davis cup for years to come. The cup. which was lost by the Amert- cans to Austrailia in 1908, and now re- turned for the first time since. arrived on the Mauretania a few minutes before the France at the next plier. There was a hitch over the cup with the Customs house. which wanted to collect duty on it. notwithstanding it went from this coun- try. Collector Mitchell will straighten the matter out, and Mr. Wrenn will get it out ot “Government hock” Monday and take | g e523 g i tt : é Davis Any Old Cast-Off Can Hit Over .300 in the Mid-West Class _ - Association. | The Jones family, strange to relate, Joneses are all former Brownies. Squire Tom, who used to cover first base for the Sportsman's Park crew, is having a great season with the stick. With a .336 mark, he’s the runner-up’ in the race to Kirke, another big League castoff. Tom is with the Brew- ers of Milwaukee, who are in second place in the standing. ‘ Ex-Brownies Doing Well. Next come Charles, the outflelder,. and Davis, late of the Tigers, both ex- Brownies. Charlies is hitting .330 and is at .324. Then Jim Delehanty. another former Brownie, is up with the leaders, owning a .813 mark. Harry Clark, maneger of the Brewers, once the prop- erty of the Browns, is closely following Del. Walter Rehg, the St. Louls boy. vho was eagerly sought by Manager Huggins, is the leader of the new element. He's bat- ting .306, but will be seen with the Red Sox next ‘ Nitnott Is Well Up. Four points below Rehg is Inflelder Nie- hoff of the Loulseville team, who is being flirted with by the Browns.
