Dr. Downey L. Harris, City Bateriolo- gist, gave details Monday of a simple method of treatment by which he bas cured a case of what he has diagnosed as rabies. He will .make_ thorough . diagnosis and says if it actu- ally was rabies it is the ‘first “time ‘br ie ftecotd, 86. far as he knows, that any! are per- holds the a it or oth- ully without ff the owner. 3’ what extent capacity, but i a large part _ equest. of -cli- e carefully is s of property © Fink in this asked the in-| lach, who re- amet at $500,- hand as er pst was has not yet et thinks it ver to somc- a which wi'l ears Od. lie 2% years. lor and lived ? fthe court- human being has been cured of the dis- ease, once fully developed. The petient is Charles Beardsley, 72 years old, who lives at a hotel at -617 Walnut street. He was taken to the hospital seriously i.1 last Thursday. Dr. Harris, who {fs an expert-on rabies gays he found Beardsiey had every symp- tom of that disease. He complained of pains in the throat, was unable to swal- low and couldn’t drink water. He had been bitten by a dog about a month be- fore. On Verge of Convulsions. At the time he entered the hospital, Beardsley appeared to be on the verge of convulsions, usually fatal, which are distinctive of the disease. As a last resort, the bacteriologist determined to try an experiment. He had read that J?r. Virgil Moon of Chicago had cured dogs afflicted with rabies by quinine, given internally and hypodermically injected. Beardsley’: Case seemed desperate to Dr. Harris and he arranged to give him a modification of Dr. Moon's treatment. He injected 15 grains of quinine un- der Beardsley's skin. He said he feared the delay—might be fatal if he waited to give the quinine internally. The first injection was: followed © by: favcrabis symptoms and another was given. Since then Dr. Harris has given two injections. a day and Beardsley’s con- valescence has’ been rapid. He says he is ready to leave the hospital, but Dr. Harris will not dismiss him as cured until he has had time to watch devel- opments. Ringing in the Ears. The only ill effects Beardsley suffered were ringing in the ears and a tingling isensation throughout the body: Dr. Har- ris said this was only a natural result of the Heavy quinine dosage. The bacteriologist's theory is that the quinine tendr to throw, off germ organ- isma‘in the system. Dr. Moon's experi- ‘ments with the dogs and Dr. Harris’ ex- periments are expected to arouse the interest of dootors all over the country. Before he began the quinine treatment of Beardsley, Dr. Harri: decided not to make his plan public. He only told Dr. Ralph Kinsella, a resident physician at the hospital, who assisted him with the case. NO CITY WATER, HE FINDS WELL WITH ‘WITCH STICK’ Kansas City (--an.) Man Doesn't Need Supply Long Sought From Municipality. Now. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 1.—Disap- pointed after five years’ effort to per- suade the Water Department of Kansas City, Kan., to extend the water mains to his neighborhood, Harry Snedeker re- sorted to the “witch stick” and found a rushing stream of clear, cold water in A few days ago Snedeker cut a forked BUOODHOUNDS ON ANEARLY MORNING, TRAIL WAKE ALTON? Police Arrest Neate on Evidence! | of Dogs Alone, Holding Him for Robbery. For the second time within 10 days, bloodhounds bayed through Alton streets early Monday morning. Without know- ing what crime had been committed, men turned out, giving up their holiday late naps, and joined the crowd, com- menting on the manner in which,police: dogs are taking the place of policemen. And the dogs showed that, while the} may not get the right person, they can get somebody every time. This time they got Elmer Shannon, a hegro, 21 years old, in Middletown, and the police did their part «by locking Elmer up, on suspicion of knowing something about the robbery Of George Hair’s store, in Upper Alton, Sunday night. In starting on the crail which led to Elmer, the dogs disagreed. The bigger one, named Nick Carter, at length had his way, and the two animals sniffed along the route made by the tracks made by one good shoe and one which had 1 cut in the sole. They followed this trail to Shannon's porch, and sniffed an4d pajwed him as he sat there. The young negro denied knowing anything about the robbery and said he had been in the main downtown section of Alton until midnight Sunday. The robbery was discovered when Hair returned to his place of business at 11 p. m. Sunday, after having been away for three hours. He found that the place had been entered and $36 taken. As soon as he notffied the po- lice they wired to Springfield for the bloodhoundas, and the animals arrived on at 6 a. m. ‘The' same dogs, day, followed a a week ago Satur- trail from an East Second street store to Duck § Lake, southeast of town, and pawed and sniffed at a young countryman whom, for that reason alone, the police at once took in custody. No evidence connecting’ the younc man with the crime was found, and the police,safter holding him three days had to let him go. But it was great fun for.the men and boys of Alton.

THOUSANDS MARCH IN CITY'S RECORD LABOR DAY PARADE Cael Marshal Est Estimates 52, G30 Men and Women Are in Line Which Requires Zh, 15m to Pass—Police Escort Missing. Bands Fill the Air With Mu- sic, Crowds Cheer and Gay Colors Predominate Throughout Long Line. Men March Without Coats— Women Brewery Workers and Telephone Operators Objects of Much Attention. The greatest army of labor ever sect. on parade in St. Louis, estimated by its leaders as numbering 52,000, marche:! over downtown streets for more tha) three hours Monday,~ Labor day. Tie line, comprising 170 local untors, wit" many bands and gaily decorated floats, was 2 hours and 15 minutes In passin« any point. Its route was, from the city hall, via Broadway and Washington avenue, to Market street and Leffing- well avenue. Women,. many of whom are or have lately been on labor's firing line, won the greatest applause from the crow which lined the sidewalks all the way. The telephone girls, who recently sei- tled their strike, marched in the posi- tion of honor, just after the grand mar- . shal and his aids. They carried Japs- nese parasols, and small telephone in- struments were hung about their necker. The waitresses, also carrying paraneig, were next in line. Garment Workers Chancel. The striking garment workers, men, women and girls, who were in the mid- dle of the parade. were heartily cheered everywhere, and in the Washington av- enue manufacturing-district they got an ovation. Because of the complaints made by striking-weiters; teléphone employes and garment workers against the police, the officials of the Central Trades and La- bor Union refused to have the customary escort of mounted policemen. They got along well without the police, starting promptly as the City Hall clock struck 6, and keeping the line of march clear by the efforts of four mounted aids; who preceded the grand marshal. The last division of the parade left Twelfth street at 12:15, and it was long after 1 when the last of the union men broke ranks and scrambled for waiting cars, to go to Priester’s Park, Grand and Meramac. There many of the men met their families, and a picnic began, to last through the evening. . Ice Wagon Driver Arrested. Only once were the police called on to make an arrest. This was in front of a cafe on Broadway, near Pine street, where an ice wagon driver, stopped in his rounds by the procession, begau throwing pieces of ice at ice wagon drivers and milkmen in the last division of the parade. Some of those at whom the bits of ice were thrown togsed them: back, and one woman’s hat waa struck. She complained to a policeman, and he arrested the iceman, W. G, Milam of 101 Chouteau avenue. He is a union driver, though he was not in the parade, He was charged with throwing missiles, but it did not appear that the woman would prosecute him. The police did not learn her name. The brewery workers and carpenters formed the biggest divisions of the pa- rade, with more than 5000 men each, di- vided into several locals. The teamsters. drivers and chauffeurs, the vanguard of the procession, roda in their vehicles, which their employers had loaned. These wagons and motor vehicles were decorated, and the men riding on them tossed out advertising cards and. bills announcing boycotts on varitou« firms. Packazes of seven cards, hel: together by rubber bands, and an- nouncing seven seperate boycotts, were widely distributed, Men in Line Are Coattess. | The marchers were coatiess, with Nett shirts. and the different trades hai each a uniform hat..

The teamsters, who brought up the rear of the pageant, rode on 50 big transfer wagons, each drawn by four, six or eight horses. On the fourth wagon, as the line was starting from Twelfth street there was some excitement because one of the men refused to sit down when others told him to. There was a scuffle, which caused a tumult in the crowd, but quiet was soon restored. With each division of the parade were several aids on horseback. These men, sometimes with difficulty, kept the crowds back with light canes which they pressed against the bystanders. The division organization of the pu- rade was as follows: ' First Division, Division Marshal Rob- ert Fitzgibbons and’Grand Marshal Jo- ~geph Rustige, brewery crafts, barbers, moving picture operators and actors.

MINOR IS CHARGED WITH BEATING EMPLOYE Groundkeeper Says Attack Fol- lowed a Trash Fire Which He Couldn't Control. Frank E. Minor, wealthy real estate Iman, who resides in a fine residence on the Price road, a mile west of Clayton, and who formerly was associated with Louis J. Cella in some of his promotions, Was arrested, Monday, in Clayton, when he motored to the courthouse and gave himself up under a warrant charging him with assaulting S. W. Mann, ground- keeper at his home. Mann told Justice Wocthiieyer he Was cut over the left eye and was beat- en by Minor, Saturday afternoon, when he was sprinkling the lawn.

The principal piece missing, and about which the entire Roosevelt household is greatly concerned, is a gold watch, bearing the Colonel’s coat of arms and valued at $1600. The iece is an heirloom, prized by the oosevelts as far above its intrin- #ic value.

This is her story: She was working in a bakery in Sout! St. Louis when she met Amann, eight months ago. He was a collector for an ice and coal company. He represented himself as single and made love to her. They eloped to Edwardsville, where he gave the name of Nemann when he was married. He gave a fictitious name because he said he would inherit $2500 if he did not marry. He feared his sister would see the license in* the papers, if he gave his right name, and cause him to be disinherited. The bride had saved $100, which she drew from the bank, and they took a trip to Chicago. He came back here and lived at different places until ail but 50 cents of her money was gone. He told her he was going to leave, and asked her for a quarter. She began a search for him last week to get evidence for a divorce, and was much surprised when she found he had another wife. Mrs. Ida Amann, 27 years old, said she found the second Mrs. Amann, and the police waiting for her and her husband when they returned from a river excur- sion in, the evening.

He wrote a postcard to her every day he was away, she said, Amann was greatly devoted to his daughter, Dorothy, 6 years old. One room in their flat is filled with toys of all kinds which he bought for her amugement. Mrs. Amann said he brought something for the little girl ev- ery time he came home. Amann said he took a chance in ths bigamous marriage, and was willing to “face the music” of the prosecution. ‘Tl knew I was doing wrong,’ Amann said, ‘“‘but I did not have the will power to resist my infatuation for Miss Crowe. My conscience soon pricked me pretty hard and I could not resist the temr- tation to see my first wife and our little girl. I went to see them constantly. The more I saw of them the more con- science stricken I became.” He decided to treat his second wife so badly that she would seek’ a divorce. They agreed, he said, to separate, and she was to remain away from him for @ year and then charge desertion in a divorce suit. RECRUITS WANTED FOR U. S. AVIATION CORPS White.

CHANGES HIS EVIDENCE Boarder Also Alters Statement and Says Mrs: McWilliams Ate Only Little Sauce. Harry Neff of 829 South Bighteenth Street, husband of Mrs. Myrtle Belle Neff, who died a week ago Sunday from arsenic poisoning In chicken dumplings at the family dinner, testified Monday at the inquest that the dumplings were prepared by Mrs. Margaret McWilliams and that his wife was not in the kitchen while they were being made. He denied the statement made by Mrs. McWilliams a: tne hospital that Mrs. Neff was in the kitchen and handed her a blue paper which she said con tained baking powder. He also changed his statement made last Tuesday at the inquest in which he testified that his wife was in the kifchen with Mrs. MeWilliams part of the time the meal was being prepared. Did Not Know of Arsenic. He told Coroner Padberg that he was sick. Tuesday and was worried because of the death of his wife and his mind was not clear. He had studied the situ- ation, he said, and now remembers clearly that his wife was not in the make the dumplings. Neff said that he did not know of the purchase of arsenic by Mrs. McWilliams a few days before the family were pois- oned, and that if his wife caused Mrs. McWilliams to purchase the poison for her, she did not tell him of it and he did not know it was in the house. Leo Trimble, a boarder, who also was made sick by eating the dumplings, asked permission at the inquest to change his statement made at a former hearing in which he said that Mrs. Mc- Williams ate some ef the dumplings. He said he meant that she ate only some of the sauce from the dumplings. Otfered to Make Dumplings. Neff testified that Trimble brought home a chicken on the Wednesday be- fore the Sunday the persons were poj- soned, ‘and told Mrs. Neff they could have chicken and dumplings for Sunday dinner. Mrs. Neff told. Trimble thai she was not very good at making dumplings, Neff testified, and Mrs. Mo- Williams then volunteered to prepare the ag ‘saying she was a good’ pastry Mrs. SA lieris out of the kitchen about; 3/30 p;.m., Neff testified, and told Mrs. McWilliams the chicken was cooked and that all was ready for the dump- lings.

Neff, his wife, and Trimple sat down to the table, Neff testified, but Mrs. McWilliams said she had eaten at a restaurant and was not hungry. His wife called Mrs. McWilliams back when she had started upstairs, according to Neff, and asked her to eat something. Mrs. McWilliams then said she would drink a cup of. coffee, Neff said, and later, when urged by the others, she tasted of a little of the sauce over the dumplings. Neff said that he and Trimble be- came sick after eating the meal, but that both had drank a bottle of beer after eating, and that he believed the beer overcame the effect of the poison to a large extent. The inquest was held open until John F. McWilliams, husband of Mrs. Mc- Williams, can be summoned to testify. He is a mail clerk. Mrs. McWilliams is at the city hospital and is yet in a serious condition, the physicians4say. Want to enjoy the autumn days board- ing at a home that has.a big yard and large porches?

When Viscoutt Haldane, Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain, visited West Point, he was accompanied by J. P. Morgan.

We cannot ex- pect that American citizens will be re- spected and receive the protection to which they are entitled under the prin- ciples of international law and the cus- toms of nations, if we declare thut our Government is so impotent that it can- not give to foreign citizens within the states the same protection.” : Mr. Kellogg asserted that the Supreme Court of the United States, fully realiz- ing its grave responsibility, has estab- lished beyond peradventure_/the | su- premacy of the treaties over the laws of the states and has enforced the rights of foreign citizens in the face of pop- ular prejudice. “ Congress Held Derelict. He commented, however, upon thé uni- form refusal of Congress to provide leg- islation to punish violations of treaty rights. He stated that Presidents Har- rison, McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft each urged upon Congress the passage of a statute conferring on the Federal courts jurisdiction to punish violation of Federal treaties by citizens of the vari- ous states, but that to the present time Congress had not acted. The speaker said: } “But the faith and honor of the nation are pledged to their enforcement and it ig as much the duty of Congress to en- act legislation to carry into effect these provisions *f our treaties as it is to appropriate money and enact other leg- islation which Congress has always done to carry out the provisions of our inter- national agreements. The result has been that the only recourse foreign nations have had has been to demand in- demnity for such injuries, which this Government has always recognized and paid. No nation claiming the high pre- rogative of the treaty making power has a right to shield itself behind the claim that one of the constituent ’states of the union has violated: the treaty and that the central Government has no author- ity to redress the grievance. He said the United States resented a similar position taken by, Brazil in 187, and he insisted that the question of the admission of alien races is a national quéstion; that the Féderal Government alone has the power to exclude them from the states and if admitted, .to de- cide on what’ terms and conditions. Mr. Kellogg held that the argument is academic; that if there are no im- plied limitations to the treaty-making power, it might be used to dismember the union. He asserted this use of the treaty-making power is not within hu- man probability. ' In conclusion, he said: “When the time comes, shall, that such a de “i is made, it will be backed by a litary power to enforce it rather than by the untram- meled exercise of the treaty-makin power.” : if it ever Stove, Range and Furnace Repatira.

JEROME EXPECTS VICTORY Fugitive’s Lawyers Plan Appeal, Remarkable Step, if Prisoner Is Set Free. By Associated Press. SHERSROOKE, Que., Sept. L—Crowds streaming into Sherbrooke today for fair week, all glimpse of Harry K. Thaw, so impressed the authorities by their number and out- spoken sympathy for the fugitive from Matteawan that Superior Judge Matthew Hutchinson conferred with Sheriff Aylmer with regard to the advisability of holdin&® the habeas corpus hearing tomorrow in private. The Judge has in mind the demonstration for Thaw on Wednesday last, when counsel for New York were ruled out of court and every effort will be made to prevent its repetition. The Sheriff, custodian of the court- house, argued against a secret hearings on the ground that it would outrage the British idea of the courts being open to all. This afternoon the question was undecided and plans for a heavy polic: ‘guard were being made. 20,000 Strangers in Town. It is estimated that 20,000 persons, besides Sherbrooke’s normal popu- lation of 20,000, will be in town this week. To hold them in check, there will be on hand four separate squads of police. These will incfudt the Do- minion police, Dominion secret serv- ice men, co-operating with the im- migration authorities; Provincial uni- formed police and Provincial plain clothes men under command of. Ken- neth McCaskill, familiarly known throughout Canada as “Pete.” Thaw’s lawyers went forward today with their plans for preventing his release on the writ of habeas corpus tomor- row. If the writ is sustained, there will be a dramatic scene in the court, for the instant Thaw is a free man, E. Blake Robertson, acting for the Immigration Department, will step forward, tap him on the shoulder and announce “I arrest you in the name of the King.” Secure for one day, at least, from any sudden judicial action against him, this being a legal holiday, Thaw spent the forenoon with his tending to his voluminous mail His counsel discussed plans for appeal in the event of the writ being sustained. They were not sure this afternoon that they had any precedent for such action An appeal against a writ of habeas cor- pus would, in a sense, destroy the effi- ciency of the writ and the rights of a citizen, guaranteed centuries ago, under the Magna Charta. It would mean that hereafter a prosecutor could ap- peal from a sustained writ and stay proceedings after a Court had ruled that a prisoner was detained illegally. William T. Jerome, special Assistant Attorney-General for New York State. rétained to get Thaw back to Mattea- wan, returned to Sherbrooke this after- noon.

This releases Boudreau from any responsibility in the case. In this way they hope to show that Boudreau is. ‘a disinterested party in the proceedings and has no right to ask for Thaw’s lib- erty. They have gone a step further in having Thaw swear that he is in no way desirous of being set free at this time and that the proceedings are con- trary to the basic principle of habeas corpus.

Should tomorrow’s, writ fail there is reason to believe that some action may be taken through Dr. Raymond Kieb, superintendent of Madtteawan, and as such, Thaw’s legal c@stodian. It was pointed out that Dr. Kieb could demand that Thaw, as a lunatic, be surrendered to him. go back to Matteawan, and soon. He believes that if further legal entangie- ments arise here, High Dominion author- ities,’ branding Thaw’s long detention without trial a public scandal, will de- mand his release. ; FAKE STORY ‘THAW KILLED’ GIVES NEW YORK THRILL Thousands Buy Papers, Printed in Philadelphia, When. News- > bo: s Cry Sensation. NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—Thousands of New Yorkers were victims of a fake sensation last night when they bought a newspaper across the front page of which in black letters three inches high they read, ‘Harry Thaw Shot Trying to Escape.” Those who bought received an even greater thrill when they réad below that Thaw was “kflled’’ and one or more men with him in his dash for liberty also were “killed or injured” —qualified, however, by the state- ment that the report was uncon- firmed. , On close inspection the. fake be- came apparent as the issue was “VOl. 1, No. 1, of the Sunday Telegram,” printed tn Philadelphia, where no regularly established paper of that name is known. It is estimated that over 100,000 copies of the newspaper had been sold between Philadelphia and New York. The story was wholly unfounded, Thaw not even having attempted an escape.

You ‘wonder at the turkey trot, the tango, - the slit skirt. I say it is because ths i mothers of this country are not inter- ested in their children.” + Then the Vice-President turned to 1 ‘Thomas Jefferson as the greatest Amer- | tean, comparing his teachings with ') those of Jesus of Nazareth. i “He was the great democrat,” sald Oo the.

Jefferson said that man was entitled to liberty, and this age has construed it to mean license. That is wrong. There is no freedom anywhere, where there is not a clear conscience, free from fear of God ani man. “Jefferson- was an individualist, and so am I to an extent, but in that part of his teaching lays his weakness. He taught ‘the survival of the fittest’ and taught man to think for and take care of himself first. But I long for the day when every man will answer ‘yes’ to the question, er?’ “Lats Do Not Change Hearts.” “But let me say that I have no hope of that unselfish attitude coming through any legislative enactment. In my State the Legislature made it a crime to play nine pins. The day after the bill was signed the gamblers added another ‘pin and now they play tenpins. “So, while I believe in all good reme- dial legislation, I do not belleve that bad people will be reformed by statu- tory enactment. It is impossible to change men’s hearts by law. “Now, this country of ours is living today a beautiful practical Christian life in many ways—in many ways I say—but there is too much tendency for men. to: counsel with sharp lawyers as to what: they can do and still keep out of jail.”’ Society \ J RS.

L—The Unionist and Liberal parties in England are trying to make political capital out of the riots in Dublin. Latest reports say that 33) civillans and 45 policemen were hurt and required hospital treatment. One of tue civilians has died of his injuries. It is argued on both sides that Irish »yassions have been stirred by the home rule campaign and that this has been responsible for the lawlessness in Dublin and also for the recent disturbances in Londonderry.

The man who demonstrates it ought to win success, even if every newspaper were against, him. And we believe that whenever and wherever such a man appears, he will win, with all newspapers which deserve success, helping him to win all the suc- recess he deserves. But first of all, thé country needs men who are personal demonstrators of their own merits. The sole political function of the newspaper is to inform the public. The newspaper which at- tempts to dictate, to govern, to dominate, to boss, becomes the worst of all political bosses. No such newspaper can long survive. Nor ought any man survive long -in politics who relies on any newspaper or combination of newspapers &s part of his own machinery as a political boss. Our compliments to the House of Governors for the‘help it has given in the elucidation of this important subject: Such of its members as are intending to become senators and presidents may rely confidently on their own personally demonstrated merits as far as they demonstrate them. They may rely not less confidently gn the impossibility of keeping their personally dem- onstrated merits out of the newspapers. - s KISSES AND EXPLANATIONS.

Nahigian Bxptaine. 2 ‘fo the Baitor of the Post-Dispatch. According to the philosophy in vogue at the Carr Street Police Station, any man that goes to a lot of trouble and expense putting up signs ad- voeatiice the humane treatment of dumb animals must be crazy. And on that same reasoning, they didn’t do a thing but land me inte the observa- tion ward of the city hospital for fiye days, Pub- lic morality must have come down to a mighty low level when any expression of humane genti- ments is attributed to insanity. Besides, they broke in and ransacked my store at 1532 Franklin avenue and my home at 1530, searching for me without a search warrant. They tore down my signs without any sort of process of law, and yet If I had‘used strong language against viviseo- tors they could have prosecuted me according to law. I had said that the vivisectors should them- selves be vivisected. Is that a crime? Did you not, on the 15th of July, editorially say the same thing? Oh, you said so in a jocular mood, but Mark Twain said, “Vivisect the vivisector,” with | his Aying breath, and he very much meant #. So did’ Julia’ Ward Howe. Ingersoll said that he wouldn’t shake hands with a vivisector. Mahomet, Plutarch, Seneca, Hubbard, Reedy and posed to the useless, extremely eruel practice, for the simple reason that the. medical profession has yet to show.a single discovery for “ benefit of humanity through vivisection. My saying that hydrophobia ard ws “oure” are lies, and that this disease is mostly a disease of the imagination, does not mean insanity. If it did, why don’t they gather In all the Christian Scientists? They certainly don’t believe in it. My saying that 20,000 dogs came to violent ends last year in St. Louis, and to avoid this useless slaughter people should remember the adage of the “ounce of prevention” and not keep a she dog, or if thty did, they should drown the blind pup- pies, was also from humane sentiments. It cer- tainly is more humane than turning the grown dogs loose into the street or taking them a dis- tance from home and lose them—that is the act of a coward. As a matter of fact, the powers that be in charge of the Carr Street Police Station didn’t know the pronunciation of the word “vivisec- tion.” They had never heard of it before and didn't know what it meant; and yet such ignoram- uses have the power to blot a man’s name and reputation for life, simply because that man stands up for the protection of dumb animals, Of course, if the City of St. Louis cannot put more intelligent and decenter men in charge of its police stations, the City of St. Louls will have to. pay for all’ the physical, mental and moral * A.

She is very much interested in Snookums and she wants to know when he is of him to let Mr. Barber cut your hair like Ne did... She also says father told her Snookums was the oldest, so why don’t he go to school? It takes about an hour every Sunday to have the comio section explained to her, but Snookums is the one who keeps her guessing. So please let her know through your paper why he don’t walk or’ go to school like her, and, him past six years old. GEO. W. JOHNSTON, Clarkton, Mo, |. Sogation of Proposed Zoo, ro eA Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Will. you permit space in your paper to present the views of the members of the South Forest Park Residents’ Improvement Association in re- gard to proposed location of the male taiton Gar- den in Forest, Park? The bill which has been tntrotuced in our Neale. lative bodies provides that 164 acres be set aside for this purpose; that the Zoological Society be permitted to sell refreshments and maintain con- ; cessions, etc., and to have absolute control over this part of the park. The Park Commissioner will have no supervision over this 164 acres, which is about one-eighth of the enfire park. We believe it is wrong to destroy trees, kill any grass or place any more buildings in the park. We have too much that is being used for other than park purposes there now. There is the police station, with its pastures, which are sel- dom used, railroad tracks, the A. A. A. club house and grounds, street car pavilions; and we have been advised that plans have been drawn and it is proposed to erect a large club house for Police officers. We have ball grounds, tennis courts, golf links, etc, and if this 164 acres is given to the Zoological Society what is there left for the man and -his family who does not care for these things? The small collection of animals now maintained in the park is not objectionable to our association, but we do object to.the setting aside of one-. eighth of the park for Zoological Gardens. This is a large undertaking and will re- puire intelligent and competent management, and while the gentlemen who are now back of this enterprise are, no doubt, all that could be de- sired, will the same class of men contro] and will we have proper management in five or 16 years from now, ang if we do not,’ what will be dene about it? | We are in favor of a large Zoological Garden for St. Louis, but we believe the Zoological So- _ST.

If I but knew What fortune would attend my song— Or if the blue. _ Soft skies of fall Shall cast their glory over all— I would not wonder what to do, If, say, the summer shall be long, If I but knew. If I but knew What morn the sun shall dimly spring Up from his couch, soft-shadowing The wildwood through, And in the tall, Gold corn the quail shall sweetly call, I would not wait this verse or two, If I but Knew. . If I but knew My song would rise above the dust And fill with glory when it bust, As stars bedew, The arch of space, And startled angele’ eyes would trace The stick swift-falling from the view, If I but knew.

Séptember was the seventh month in the old Roman calendar, and there- fore took tts name from the Latin sep-| tem (seven). This brought Labor Day around in midsummer, when it was too hot to march far enough to make mucn of an impression on capital, and the q Scnaniedll “ the waiter and disperse, the gorgeous hunter’s moon will mount the roof tent of the universe, the katydid will wake the night with one last carol of de- spair, the student will get out his light and don the somber brow of care, the pretty redwing will depart to spend the Winter in the rice, and the suiimer girl will bring her heart back home and put it on the ice. The fragrant cider press will flow with drink from the celestial mill, and the blood-red sassafras -will show its rew slit skirt upon the hill. The sad and melancholy boy will wend his heavy way to‘school, and rone but willow bugs will toy around the vacant ewimming pool. The teacher, looking stern and prim, will close the windows and the door, and the captives, safely shut with- in, will sing from pege 234.

A new and better brand of air will circulate among the trees, and music from the county fair will softly float upon the breeze. Sweet Venus’ star will sail the sky to render beautiful the night, and the pests of summertime will die and turn their mandibles up- right.

An4 at the beginning of this life, before reason plays any part in our manifestations, we dance. Lit- tle children dance in happiness, in sor- row, in anger. They dance about their mothers in love. Yuuth dances giorious- iy in exhilaration. Age bows and sways in grief. Every movement or gesture of man that emphasizes thought has definite relation to the dance. And re- cently Sir Ray Lauketer has pointed out the motives that impel human kind to this form of expression. I might go on indefinitely about the effect of dancing, its value and its ben- efits, intellectual, spiritual and physi- cal. I believe, I know, that every time we try to express a beautiful thought we are uplifted. By so much has our better and higher self been developed and strengthened. Life is a struggie for self-expression, the dance ts a me- dium of expression for all. Not every- one can sing or play. Few can write verse and though in- spiring and refreshing, indeed, listening tc music or reading poetry can be but second hand for self-expression. This must not be taken to mean that I do not love poetry and music, for were I not what I am I would choose to be a poet or a composer and a harpist, a sort of modern Sapphv.

If is said that thé effect was extremely gratifying. The endurance of everyone marching in- creased, capital was cowed, and wages went up. The name September has always been popular, and the only attempt ever made to remove it from the calendar resulted in one of the worst riots in history. This occurred in the time of Germanicus ‘the tyrant, who sought to give his own name to the month, as the Caesars had given their names to July and August. Soon after the change was made there was an uprising among poets, song writers ‘and other persons of refined instincts, and Gernmianicus was chased pack into Germany, suffering the ¥ of most of*his men and his royal coat- tail. The name September was then re- stored to every stone and bronze from which it had been expunged, and no one else has ever tampered with it. There is no other time of year So welcome as the season nigh, When the haze gets in the atmosphere And the pumpkin vine begins to pie. The very thought of all that goes With this delightful time of year Makes poets tingle to their toes And sweetly smile from ear to ear. fall upon their eager lyres As lightly as a ton of brick, And poesy s tmmortal fires 7 up the country mighty quick.

But not so hard as tf it had been good-by. I had determined to return to them, not as their pastor, but to minister to their physical disorders. In two years I did return to practice medicine among them. My-dear people showed their confidence in me by giving me a practice which was the envy of all my confreres. To ‘them I was still their beloved pastor, though I took their money for my pre- scriptions. “But I was overworked, and on two or three occasions took stimulants to enable me to attend to my patient, when I should have been in bed my- self.

NBD evening at the Abbaye de Saint-Wandrille, where I am wont to spend my summers, some newly arrived guests were amusing themselves by making a small table spin on fts foot. I. was quietly smoking in a corner of the drawing room, at some distance from the little table, taking no tnterest in what was After due entreaty the table replied that it held the spirit of a seventeenth century monk who was buried in the east gallery of the cloisters under a flagstone dated 1698. After the depar- ture of the monk, who suddenly, for no apparent reason, refused to continue the interview, we thought that we would go with a lamp and look for the gTrave. We ended by discovering in the far cl » On the eastern side, a tombstovie in very bad condition, brok- en, worn down, trodden into the ground, and crumbhng, on which, by examining it very closely, we were able with great difficulty to decipher the in- scription “A.

LEARN ONE THING EVERY DAY Many clever men have big heads, says Gertrude Bacon, in the Strand, but so have many lunatics and imbeciles. The weight of the brain is a surer guide to its quality that the size of the head. Other things béing equal brain-weight cerresponds with intelligence. The aver- age weight for a man is from € to 8 ounces—of a woman from 41 to 47 (@ bitter fact for advocates of the super- iority of the fairer sex). The heaviest human brains known were Dr. Aber- crombie’s, which was 62% ounces, and Cuvier’s, the great French naturalist, an ounce and a half heavier. It falls tc the lot of but few geniuses, however, to have this test applied to them. The brain of a man, on the whole, is about one-fortieth of the weight of his body. Of a dog, but one hundred-and-twen- tieth. Only two kinds of animal, the whale and elephant, have larger brains than man, but in both these the propor- tion to the weight of the body is greatly less. In 1906, it is estimated, the money In- vested in Norwegian whaling companies amounted to $1,032,000. By 1910 this had increased to $3,000,000, doubling that year ty $6,000,000.

Additional competition will be fur- nished by Willis Murphy of the Missouri Athletic Club and and Arthur Raithe! and W. 8S. Merriam, both of Chicago, all’ of whom have figured creditably in previous events. Heath has beaten Raithel, Merriam and his clubmate, Murphy, in a previous race and, as he is at the top of his form now, there is at least an even chance that he will repeat over these men this afternoon. McDermott, however, is a sturdy lad. He all but beat out Bud Goodwin the year the New Yorker won the event in the record time of lh. 30m. and 49s. Another year he beat so good a swim: mer as Gus Goessling, in time two min- utes slower than that in which Heath won the 1912 contest. River Stage Affects Time. Time, however, will have to be elim inated from the preliminary guessing, for the stage of the river and the care- ful piloting of the men by their ad- visers has much to do with the period required for covering the distance. In all, there are 28 entries for’ the event, but the five names mentioned are the only ones to which the experts are giving consideration. Dr. C. W. Bassett will start the event from the Chain of Rocks promptly at 2:30 o'clock. The men should finish shortly after 5 o’clock, if no delays occur.

And Mi wie morning the Browns were only one game from last place, still the new manager, whom we are assured is coming, delays appearance. Why? Why wait until Sept. 8, Oct. 1, Jan. 1 or any other old date when the club so plainly needs the grip of someone who can hold it together? : Branch Rickey has been for several weeks the director of the club’s policy in the matter of obtaining new men, he is the man who is to be the gen- eralissimo of the Hedges army, next year, reliable authority permits it to trickle out. Therefore, he is available for the po- sition at once, and could be used to put a little ginger into the team and keep Frank Chance’s last place pre- diction from coming true, = + . But Let’s Be Serious. URTHERMORE, he might enable that harlequin outfit of Browns to put 75 cents’ worth of baseball into the game, and thus decently reimburse grandstand spectators for their invest- ment. At present about one bit or 12% cents ought. to buy tickets to four Browns’ games, basing the estimate on the St. Louis end of the exhibition. That is taking the game seriously; as a joke, their shows might be worth the money. | One more downward move and the in- coming manager will have a cellar team to uplift. And it takes some dynamics, not to say dynamite, to lift a club out of that position, once em- bedded there. . . . For Commercial Reasons. T. LOUIS and New York are two spots in the American League cir- cuit that will be treated for hookworm shortly, if improvement in the quality of baseball is not soon made. The reason is purely a financia) one, not a sporting proposition. Visiting owners complain they with difficulty pay hotel bills and transportation aft- er playing here, in certain stages of the race. They draw down 12% cents per head On all admissions. With the unusuaily large number of bleacher seats here the returns are slight. The home club, too, gets a big edge on the grandstand. So that while the home club mey “get by,’ the visitors do not. Why Ban Johnson Came. HERE was a report that President Ban Johnson was here partly to discuss ways and means of rectifying this situation, as well as to consider the acceptability of Branch Rickey as next manager of the team. Other club own- ers are complaining that the Browns “get by” at their expense, while con- tributing little to the general welfare. & + * Treat This Tenderly. EW YORK? Ah, that’s a sore spot. Every time Ban Johnson re- calls that the Giants are making be- tween $400,000 and $600,000 annually, his heart bleeds for the Yankees who may not make enough profits this year to enable Frank Chance to buy a new overcoat with his 5 per cent of the spoils. That the League is trying to help out New York is a “yarn thdt seems 99 44-100 pure and floats, despite denials. The Ty Cobb $40,000 sale story, if con- firmed, would indicdte that some pres- sure is being exerted to swing help Chancewards. Don’t lift your hands to heaven, Ban, in protest. Such things have been dis- cussed—and done, Nor would club Owners object much if the Highlanders were so bolstered. They would like a ‘little of the New York pie, such as the National League clubs have been eating for lo, these many years. * aa a Cc HANCE was perfectly safe in pre- dicting that he would have a baseball club in three years. The League can’t afford to have a leader there, for very long. ee Alexander’s Triple Smashes 44th Goose Egg in Browns’ Collection FTER going 4 innings without scoring @ run, a major league rec- ord which has not been questioned, the Browns Sunday reared up and broke their string of ciphers at the expense of Pitcher Vean Gregg. Alexander’s triple, scoring Mike Balenti put the shut-out record on the everlasting blink in the third frame. Withal the Browns lost 9—1. This run compounded by Messrs. Alex- ander and Balenti was the first scored by the Browns in eight days. Their previous tally was made in the fourth inning of last-Sunday’s game off Ben- der. The Browns went through 54 In- nings on two runs, losing six straight games. As a result of Sunday's setback, the Sports- man’s Park entry now is only one full game ahead of the Yankees, Who &re struggling to evacuate last place. At that, Chance’s team is crippled, by the loss of Shortstop Peck- jnpaugh and Outfielder Cook, two regulars who are on the sick list. The Yanks’ feat of winning two games from the Men of Mack Saturday was the cause of the Browns being relegated to the very threshold of last place. Incidentally, Frank Gilhooley, the diminutive fly chaser, who once was with the Cardinals, helped the The retrograding Brownies beat a hasty re- treat after Sunday’s game, rushing on an early train to Detroit, where they play a double-header today. Stovall will use Baum- gardner and Leverens agains: the Jungaleers. nein Gus Williams is regaining his batting optic, which was dimmed by reason of Gus’ recent improvement im the art of catching fly balls. Gus nicked two hits Sunday, while he combed a like number Saturday. He's now hitting .272, while his running mate. Bert Shotton, is tearing along at a pace ot .804. G. Btovall tumbled out of the charmed cjrcle during the past week. He’s hitting 204. The Naps gained two full games on the Mackmen during their stay in this city. How. ever, the Cleveland crowd still is seven games behind the men of Mackmen and only a cyclonic finish will give Birmingham’s men a chance. Af the same time the Athletics must have a slump to make the pennant pos. sible for the Forest City entry. > a FEDER AL LEA UE. Manager Huggins Say hncianat Club Wouldn’t COT e ee, a Deal, Se By W.

Here ang there some changes in the appearance of the Te teams in the two big leagues are now stringing out in about the order table of the standing of the clubs may develop before the end of the race, but nearly all the important positions in it have been spoken for and re- served. It is now apparent that the Giants and Athletics will take the champion- ships in their respective leagues, as both have good leads. These two clubs have had to travel over some thin ice the past month and a half, I don’t mind admitting it now, But neither one of the pursuing teams was able to take advantage of its opportunities. The Athletics face an easy schedule with the Westerners from this point ginning to take the Athletics’ victory each season as a matter of course, now since they have won two world’s cham- pionships in three years. They only complain if the Athletics don’t repeat. Naps Easier Than Mackmen. HEN a town, which supports but T one team, is always crazy over that club when it is winning, or even in the first division, and the news- papers send a flock of special writers. artists, photographers and paragraph- to the end of the race with a long stand at home, while the Cleveland Club is traveling and meeting the stronger Eastern teams. It doesn’t seem to me that the Naps have a chance. They passed up their big opportunity when they fell before Boston and Washington, after taking three out of four from the Athletics in the last series and putting them- selves into the race. Personally, I would just as soon have seen the Cleveiand team win for many reasons. One is that the city has nev- er won a pennant, and such a maiden town generally turns out big when .-t does get a world’s championship battle staged in its park. There would have been a lot of money in that Cleveland series, possibly more than will be at- tracted to the Philadelphia gate. as tho residents of the Quaker City are be. Pigs min a.

All this would have attracted 9g big crowd to a world’s series battle in Cleveland, whereas, the New York and Philadelphia newspapers insist on a first place team. It is a matter of habit with them, and they have been educate up to it. They are not satisfied with anything else. There is still another reason why I should just as soon have seen Cleve- land win as the Athletics. I believe the Giants would have had a surer chance against the Naps than against the Ath- letics, because Cleveland has not the pitchers that “Connie’’ Mack carries on his payroll.‘ Neither is the club as steady as the Athletics, but is more in- clined to be streaky. And I would /Jike to have seen Napoleon Lajoie get a chance in a world’s series. He has been in the game for a long time and has nev- er had that opportunity. I believe he would show up even better than his previous best in such a series berause he is the kind of a player who is always there when the emergency is most pressing. There is a story in the American League that the Naps are none too well liked by the members of several other clubs. Certain rival players maintain that some men on the Cleveland team got swelled up this year when they made such a good showing in the race. It is also well known that several of the Naps and as many of the Red Sox en- gaged in some kind of a pitched battle earlier in the season. Therefore no love remains between those two clubs. and Boston went into their series with When Cleveland had its recent chance to catch the Athletics, both Washington the Naps and played their heads off against them. Griffith worked Boehling and Johnson, his best pitchers, for they say in the American League that Boeh- ling is one of the coming great south- paws when he gets a. little steadying. Washington took two games of the series and the Red Sox cleaned up, prac- tically pushing Cleveland back to a po- sition in the race where their cham- pionship chance was gone. Quakers Out of Race. HE Philadelphia National League . team is out of the race now, too. They hung on well for a long time, but, when the Pirates grabbed the Guakers for a double-header last Satur- Cay, that pushed them down too far to recover. My club should now have a fairly comfortable trip for its final swing through the West, with the present lead. We will not have to play our heads off just before the world’s series, and I will rot be forced to take as many chances of men getting hurt by ordering them to steal or attempt other dangerous plays. Of course, any time a player goes into a game, he is taking chances on getting hurt, but these cannot be avoided. How- ever, the wise manager makes the most cf the percentage and tries to keep it in his favor. with the more-dangerous plays when he is not pushed. , Do not think from this that I am not going to keep my club hustling. But, with the lead safe, I'll rest a regular here and there each day and give the veteran pitchers as much of a chance to freshen up as possible. Of course, each of these will have to take a good, stiff workout every once in a while in order to keep in shape. Mack’s Pitchers Weak ? HE world’s series this fall is going fs to be a good one. Some baseball men are counting on the Athletics lacking pitchers because of the hard work both Bender and Plank have been subjected to this season, but I have been reliably informed that Coombs expects to pitch in the biz serles and is work- ing desperately to that end. He said, only a short time ago, when someone asked him how he felt: “The arm is fine, never better. From my knees up I am as good as I ever was, but below my Knees I am not there yet. I feel as if I had to learn to walk ell over again. But don’t you fear, I'll | be in the series.’’ The weakness in the legs is doubtless due to Coombs’ long stay in bed, which always results in this way. I shall have more to say of the impending world’s series in my next article.

By ROY L. M’CARDELL R. JARR came home late and with a headache. He felt dizzy and nervous. Mrs. Jarr was not at all sympathetic, although Mr. Jarr had repeated to her impressively before he sank into a trou- bled slumber: “Efficiency! Punctuality! Modern methods! Co-ordinate co-operation!’’ Why this statement, sounding oddly on Mrs. Jarr’s ears, should be repeated te her with emphasis and unction eacii e she had requested that he take off his shoes before retiring, Mrs. Jarr could not guess. But Mr. Jarr was repeating the frag- rents, as he remembered them, of the oss’ parting address to the employes | of Smith & Co. at the seaside office fimner given at the instigation of the firm’s efficiency engineer. For some -days Mr. Jarr’s shop talks at home had been filled with allusions to the new efficiency engineer. At first he Kad een skeptical, later on he had been in- ‘erested, and toward the last eagriy nithusiastic. Put for some strange reason he hed *t mentioned the name of the effi- necy engineer to Mrs. Jarr. This was yecause he knew Mrs. Jarr was ac- uainted with Mr. Dinkston before that gentleman had taken up efficiency en- gineering. “She had known him as a book agent, ah advertising poet, a professional bo- hemian, as the husband of Mrs. Gratcii, the militant suffragette, and ag a teach- er and exponent of the turkey trot and tango under the nom de danse of “the Great Plantagenet.” Mr. Jarr, even when he hed returned dizzy with too much efficiency, had a suspicion that Mrs. Jarr would not re- gard Mr. Dinkston in any capacity oth- ’ erwise than with alarm. So Mr. Jarr slept late the next morn- ing and awoke with the remnants of ths very efficient headache he had gone to bed with, He heard voices from the front room. Has. Mr. Jarr ‘ost his position, then?” @sked one voice, the voice of Mra, Rangle, the wife of his best friend. “Oh, no! What an idea!” responded rs. Jarr loyaliy. “He was up late last } ad at a meeting of the board of rectors of his firm. They have a new fictency engineer, and so much more ork and responsibility devolve upon ar. Jerr.” “Well, it all sounds very fine, Mra, .’ Mrs. Rangle was heard to say, Het I am frank to tell you that you give more confidence tn Mr. Jarr than have in Mr. Rangle. Guess who I saw Rangle meet at the corner? That fful loafer Dinkston! And in a tax!- ib! Wishes must be automobiles these s if loafers are riding. Not only was Dinkston fn that taxi- . but Gus, who keeps that place on corner; and Slavinsky, the glazier: Rafferty, the builder; and some man I do not know were in the iele.
