Mre. Baton was calm dnd self-pos- sessed as she began her testimony. The jurors gave.close attention to her story, ‘which she told in a clear, well modulated voice, addressing herself always to her senior council, William A. Morse. Unde: the questioning of the attorney, Mrs. Haton described her early life. She Was born at Alexandria, Va., 39 years _ @go, she said, her family later remov- _ dng to Michigah and then to Washing- ton, where she met her first husband. D. H. Ainsworth. | Her life with Ainsworth was unhappy, She said that her husband lost two po- nitions ‘and: thet she -was forced: to aid jn the support of the family, selling books from house to house. During her life with Ainsworth she and her two children, June and Dorothy, lived suc- cessively at Washington, Guthrie, Ok.; -8t.

Mrs. Eaton said that she placed her daughters in a school at Frederick, Md., land then took up nursing.

She and Admiral Eaton werd married @ Boston, July 2%, 196. They began housekeeping on an elaborate scale in Brookline, but because of their debts and the Admiral’s intemperance, Mrs. Baton decided to buy. a place in\ the country. She said that she had to dis- dharee three maids from the Brookline Home because of the Admiral’s atten- tiéns to them. She added that her hus- be hed insulted her daughter, June. * the Assinippi place was bought on Aug. 31, 1907, the family had only $500 in cash with an indebtedness of more than $12,000.

British Ambassador, and upon re- ceipt.of news of, Sir Cecil’s continued il health, advanced the date of his prom- ised visit to him. The press generally agrees with the Government officials that the differences of view between the United States and England are not serious. It declares that all that En- gland desires is the restoration of order in Mexico. No Hostility to U. S. The Westminster Gazette, a Gov- ernment organ, says that while En- gland has great interests in Mexico,, she cannot take the same liabilities or responsibilities in regard to that country as the United States does, although the fact of her not doing 80, constitutes; no sort of hostility to the United States. The Pall Mall Gazette, an opposi- tion newspaper, says: “Provisional President Huerta'’s declaration to the dipldmatic corps in Mexico. City. is full of superficial common sense. But despite the self- denying ordinance by which he with- draws his candidature for the presi- dency and despite the promise of the Mexican Government. not to interfere with the elections, Gen. Huerta will remain dictator when the poll has been declared.” The newspaper points out that recog- nition of the existing Mexican govern- thent does not constitute support of it and continues: -“3¢ Great Britain were indeed sup- porting a man whom the United States declines to recognize, the relations of the two countries would be badly strained, but there is not and never has been any question of such action on our part.” — The Pall Mall Gazette concludes that England can nave rio complicity with any league of European nations to thwart the policy of the United States on the American continent. The Standard says: “Engiland’s only attitude in regard to Mexico is one of strict neutrality. Even the Monroe doctrine itself cannot compel England to refrain from recognising & man whom an independent nation has entrusted with the government.” The Globe, in a long editorial article, says that Great Britain has no desire or intention of picking a quarrel with anybody over the question of Mexico, but thinks that the United States should accept Gen. Huerta's assurances that of Mexico inevitable. Therefore, he adds, Great Britain ought not’to put the brake on the wheels of progress and rightly or wrongly she should support the American policy in Mexico. The Dally News, in a strong editorial, demands the recall of Sir’ Lionel Gar- den, On the ground that he is doing his best to help President Huerta in his de- sign to set the British and American governments at loggerheads. The news- papers say: ‘The maintenance of American friend- ship is the keystone to British policy.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. The United States Government is pre- paring to notify the nations of the world generally that any interference in Mex- ican affairs will be regarded as un- friendly to this Government. President Wilson anc Secretary Bryan and Counselor John Bassett Moore of the State Department have exchanged ideas on what the proclamation to the world should express. It will be com- municated to foreign svvernments everywhere in line with the policy es- tablished earlier of keeping other na- tions informed of every step taken in its handling of the Mexican problem. The proclamation or note also will serve, it is Under8tood, as an explicit definition of the policy of the United States toward the de facto authorities in Mexico, reiterating the principle that America to recognition Gan only be given to gov- ernments on this hemisphere founded on law and order. \ It has been practically decided to hold the matter in abeyance for sev- eral days, at least until after the elec- tions in Mexico, next Sunday.

By Associated Press. LQS ANGELES, Cah, Oct. %.—Mrs. Evera Drummond has obtained a divorce from John N. Drummond Jr., son of the late tobacco manufacturer of St. Louis. Mrs. Drummond, who before her mar- riage was Miss Evera Meyer of Chicago, charged her husband with desertion and cruelty and named Mrs. Laura Eastland of San Diego, Cal., as corespondent. At the last minute Drummond decided not to contest the action and withdrew a cross complaint alleging cruelty. In support of her charges Mrs. Driim- mond produced letters, checks and tele- grams which Drummond was alleged to have scnt to other women. Mrs. Drummond gets custody of the couple's 4-year-old daughter, Virginia, and obtains the home here and stocks from which she will obtain an income of $250 monthly. Bacon Says Only U. §. Marines Should Land in Mexico. PHILADELPHIA,. Oct. 25.—Presi- dent Wilson and party arrived heer a fe wminutes after 1 o'clock today. The President would not comment on the Mexican situation. On\the special train bearing a dele- gation from both Houses of Gongress, including Speaker Clark, Minority Leader Mann and others, the Mexican situation was discussed. Senator Bacon, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, expressed’ the views that if any marines have to be landed in Mexico, they should be American marines. “The interests of the United States in Mexico,’’ Senator Bacon said in a statement, “are greater than those of any other nation. I would not dispute the right, under ordinary conditions. to land marines wherever necessary for the protection of personal property, but I (‘ink it would be inadvisable under the present circumstances for other nations to land marines in Mexico, be- cause that might lead to unfortunate complication,” he said. Inasmuch as Senator Bacon knows the Washington administration's view- point intimately, it is not unlikely that some of his views expressed today. will be included in President Wilson's forth- coming note to the powers against for- eign interference in Mexico. “I have no authority to speak for anyone but myself,” said Senator Bacon, “but I think. if the subjects or citizens of any nation need protection in Mex- ico on account of which. undér ordin- ary circumtsances, marienes would be landed, it would be far better to call on the United States for whatever pro- tection is rkquired, so that whatever may be absolutely necessary may be at- tended to by American marines.

By Associated Press. | DAWSON, N. M., Oct. %.—Rescue crews today succéeded in working thei way well inte the fatal chamber No, 18 eas’ on the high line where 200 men are entombed in the Stag Canyon Mine, and before nightfall they expect to be within a few feet of the jammed door connecting this chamber with the ‘last on the east side high line. It is be- yond this door that the great number of bodies are expected to be found, among which are those of General 8u- perintendent William’ McDermott and Henry P. McShane, the wealthy young New Yorker: That the men will be found dead is the unanimous opinion of all concerned in the rescue work. Mine experts, includ- ing J. C. Roberts and his assistants of the United States Mine Rescue Service, agree that the amount of black damp which penetrated. the nineteenth cham- ber as the result of the explosion was sufficient to have killed all of the oa- cupants instantly. Huddling ef Miners Pussling. But that so many of the miners, al- most 200, should have been in the cham- ber, ig the puzzling feature to the men who are directing the rescue work, From the conditions found in the ad- joining chamber it waa believed that the center of the explosion was in either the. eighteenth or nineteenth chamber and by this reasoning they are unable to see how the miners could have reached the chamber if there they are. The rescue work has been systematised with a directing head at each phase of exploration. With the coming of the Government rescue crews the miners were given new courage and no diffi- culty was found in the organization of helmet crews, a task which had assumed desperate proportions when it was learned yesterday that two of the hel- met men had been killed at their work. The opinion still exists that all of the bodies will not have been recovered be- fore Sunday. , Sixty-One Rodtes Recovered. Sixty-one bodies had been recovered when the search was resumed today aga 86 of these have already been buried, a union service for all taking place yes- terday. The two deaths added to the list yes- terday were those of James Lurdi and William Poisi, who were among the 23 rescued alive, earlier. - The .men were members of a rescue squad which en- tered the mine in the early morning. They did not return and it was only after the experts of the United States rescue car had searched six hours that the bodies were found.

Louig Star Saturday filed their answer to Frederic B, Warren's peti- tion for = temporary injunction to re- strain them from interfering with his control of the editorial policy of the paper. The shoemaker’s side of his contro- versy with the editor of his newspaper is told in this answer, filed in Judgs Grimm's court. Judge Grimm told at- dismiss Warren’é petition, alleges that Warren in several ways has violated the contract which he made with Rob- erts and the Star-Chronicle Publishing Co, May 18 jast. The: answer denies that Roberts en- tered into any agreement with Warren to continue ig force any contract War- ren may have made with Nathan Frank It denies also that Roberts had knowl- edge of any contract by which Warren was to be employed for eight years as editorial director of the Star. Dented the Contract, It is asserted that Warren denied to Roberts that he had any contract with Frank. Roberts alleges that May 13 last he entered into contracts. with Warren, Fred C. Veon and John J. Olsen and that under the terms of these con- tracts it was stipulated that Roberts was to have absolute contro! of the paper. Warren and others were to give their services to the paper for five years at salaries of $100 a week each. When the profits of the paper should reach $7500 a month their salaries were to be increased to $125 and when the profita reached $10,600 a month they were to receive $166 a week. The anewer alleges that Warren's contract was obtdined through his false representations to Roberts, Ed- ward. 8. Lewis and Virgil Rule that the daily circulation of the paper had continuously increased since Sept. 1, 1912, when Warren first took charge of it. Warren, according to the an- sewer, falsely represented that the av- erage paid circulation of the Star in the six months preceding May 13 last had been 63,836 and that the circu- lation May 13 was 94,639. Warren, it ig allege’. also falsely represented that he had through his efforts added 40,000 or 50,000 to the paper's circu- lation. Warren, the answer asserts, repre sented that before May 13 the Star was alleged, wag made to induce Roberts to enter into a contract to employ War- ren, while Warren knew that the Star's circulation was not %4,000, @new that tho income wags not sufficient to meet expenses and knew that in the near future it would not be sufficient. Roberts in his answer says that after signing the contract with Warren May 13 he advanced $25,000 for operating ex- penses. He denies that he has been un- reasonable and arbitrary or. that, as charged by Warren, he disregarded the first principles of success in newspaper publishing. ° Roberts denies that Oct. 1, or any other date, he adopted a policy opposed to woman suffrage, union labor .or the full and free disclosure of public or private corruption. He has always ad- vocated a fair and independent policy On such questions, he says. ays Warren Suggested e answer alleges that Sept. the Board of Directors of the Star passed a resolution introduced by Warren and calling for the following changes: Elim- inating phe eagle at the top of the title page, a change in type dress, the dis- continuing of catchey headlines and of large seven-column heads, the abandon- ment of a Sunday edition and the spend- ing of large sums for advertising in Other St. Louls newspapers, In his petition for an injunction War- ren alleged that these changes were made without his consent.

HUGH FULLERTON N S ACQUITTED 0 ED WOMAN'S CHARG ]Chief Probation Officer Charged With Influencing Adoption of Children. ALL JUDGES HEAR CASE Defense Shows That Girl Gave Socks, Necktie and Sus- penders to Him. of- ac- Hugh Fullerton, chief probation ficer of the Juvenile Court, was quitted Saturday of impeachment charges brought against him by Mrs. Rose’ Allen of 2728 Washington avenue. Fullerton was tried: before all the Cir- cuit Judges sitting together, with Judge Withrow presiding. The evidénce in the case against Ful- ierton was presented Friday. The Judges iook it under advisement and when they met Saturday morning they announced their decision. Mrs. Allen charged that she had been deprived of her two children through the recommendations of Fullerton act- ing in his capacity as probation officer and that she had been put to great trou- ble and expense in regaining possession of them. The children, Etta and Lucille Al- len, 12 and 8 years old, respectively. were awarded by the Juvenile Court to William Abar Dec. 2, 1911. Abar and his wife lived in a housebcat at the foot of Kraus street. Subsequent- ly Abar obtained adoption papers for them in the Probate Court. Fullerton Denies Aiding Adoption. Their mother asserted she was ne aware of the adoption proceedings until after the court made the order. She charges Fullerton helped to ar- range the adoption. He denies this charge. He was confirmed in this by the testimony of Devereux Hender- son, a lawyer who appeared for Abar in the Probate Court Abar and his wife left St. Louls with the Allen children after Mrs. Allen re- newed her efforts to get the girls and the mother later located them in Cana. da, across from Detroit, and brought back her children to St. Louis. In her charges against Fullerton, Mrs Allen complains that he had représent- ed she was not a fit woman for cus- todian of the girls and that he Withheld information from the court which result- ed in the girls being temporarily taken from her. She says that Fullerton recommended that the-girls be placed with Abar al- fhough the later had confessed that he and Mrs. Allen had been on very friend- ly terms, Fullerton, in his statement at the trjal Friday, admitted that Abar had made such a statement to him, but said there were circumstances which caused him (Fullerton) to act. as he had done in the matter. Fallerton Denies Getting $100. Mrs. Allen and her daughter, Etta, testified to having heard that Abar told someone he would give Fullerton $100, Fullerton declared he never received @ cent from the man. In his statement to the Court of what he expected to prove, Attorney Walz saidy#e would show that gifts had been received by Fullerton. When Etta Al- len was on the stand, Fullerton, who conducted his own defense, brought out that the witness had given to him presents of a necktie, a pair of purple socks and a pair of suspenders. Ful- lerton told the girl that if such gifts were not from the heart he would be glad to return them. “T still have the articles, althougn the necktie is a little soiled from wear, the suspenders are as good as new. I don’t wear suspenders,’’ said Fullerton. Etta answered that she had no use for the articles and that he might keep them. Defense Witness Makes Charges. Fullerton called only one witness, At- torney Charles F. Krone, with whom he engaged in a colloquy. Krone, in answer to questions by Fullerton, ad- mitted he had made derogatory state- ments coucerning Fullerton at the City Club. “Did you not speak of me there as being either a knave or a fool?” asked Fullerton. ‘“T did,’’ Krone admitted. “Which?” asked Fullerton. “Both,”’ answered the witness. On motion of Judge Koerner all of Krone’s testimony was stricken out as without bearing on the case. Fullerton explained he had called Krone because the latter had made some ‘nasty charges” in connection with the Allen- Abar case. “The charges, if true, would not only oust me from my present job, but would bar me from polite society,” Fullerton said. Fullerton made a statement of his A, te neta ap STOMACH SICK, $1 Do some foods you eat hit back— taste good, but work badly; ferment into stubborn lumps and cause a sick, sour, gassy. stomach?

He denied ali in- timations of any improper influence and declared that the houseboat in which Abar had lived was nicely furnished and comfortable and contained five rooms. Concluding his statement, Fullerton said that the present proceedings ar= more of an assault on the Juvenile Court system than on him. “Permit me to say,” said Fullerton, “‘that the Juvenile Court has a Judge only four days of the week and that because of this you are forcing your probation officers to but it is not I, so much as it is the court, that is concerned in this at- tack.” Judge McQuillin took issue with Ful- lerton on this, saying: “You are wrong in your conclusion it is an attack on the court. It is an attack on you ana your administration of the probation office.” Fullerton was appointed by the Circuit Judges about three years ago.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2.—‘*Unclean! clean!”’ The cry that for centuries made a bar- rier between lepers and the rest of the world, the warning note that made the clean turn from the afflicted, still mili- tates against me in this twentieth cen- tury here in Chicago. Only today I heard the girls in the of- fice where I am employed saying: “It’s a shame we have to work with her.’’ And they cast sidelong glances of avér- sion in my direction as they talked in low tones. I am trying to find other work where I won’t be in their way. I wish I could go to another city where I am not known and start life anew. It is only hope for a realization of that desire that turned me aside a few days ago after I had made up my mind to kill myself.

I could not afford to do that, and it was the last drop im life’s cup that had been tinc- tured with, bitterness because people shunned me when they learned that I had spent four months nursing the poor | stricken lepers in the Tracadie colony in Canada. I went there to become a nun in the Sisters of St. Joseph, a little order of martyrs who minister to the Govern- ment’s only colony of lepers. I was only there four months when my health broke down on account of the climate and I had to come back to Chicago. It was one of three girl friends I trusted who met me when I came back last December, and who spread the story that I had been at a leper colony. Peo- near. Someore telephoned the boarding house where I was staying and I was warned to move. ‘‘Leper,’’ was whispered in the halls by other women in the house. They drew their skirts away when I passed. I moved away, and the warning word ed me. Eight times in one week I was forced to move. Since then I have been driven nearly crazy with persecution and manifesta- tions of aversion which are in evidence wherever I go. And that is in spite of a clean “bill of health’ that has been issued to me by Dr. George B. Young, the City Health Commissioner. I have a letter from him inclosing a document signed by Drs. Oliver Ormsby, W. A. Pusey, Joseph Zeisler, W. J. M. Cun- ningham and Murray Rawlings, certify- ing that they have made an examina- tion, and that there is no trace of lep- rosy in me, And yet whérever I turn it is as if I can still hear the centuries old challenge and warning, “‘Unclean! Unclean!’’ “‘Buck’s” Stoves and Ranges are peace- makers in thousands of homes. PIG OVERTURNS AUTO, ONE MAN IS KILLED Three Other Illinoisans Hurt When Machine Hits Animal, Crossing the Road.

BEFORE TEN YEARS SENTENCE 15 BEGUN James Lynch Convicted of Rob- bing Saloon Man of $3000 Succumbs to Tuberculosis. James [I,ynch, under sentence of 10 Years for highway robbery as one of four men who took a grip containing $3000 from M. J. O'Meara, near the lat- ter’s saloon at Twenty-first and Ran- dolph street, Oct. 10, 1912, is dead of tuberculosis at his widow's home, 1921 Lucas avenue. Lynch’s attorneys had appealed the case to the Supreme Court and he spent his last days at home under bond. He had been afflicted with tuberculosis for years. Ray Stevenson, under sentence of seven years for the same offense, testified that Lynch claimed all but $100 of the O’Meara loot after.the robbery on the ground that his days were num- bered. Lynch and Stevenson were not prose- cuted by Circuit Attorney Seebert G. Jones because of alleged defects in the evidence, but when Judge Thomas B. Harvey was elected Circuit Attorney he issued warrants and obtained convic- tions. The State never has been able to -lo- cate the stolen money, despite rumors that Otto Stifel, a brewer to whom the money belonged, had been told by go- betweens that the greater part of the fund would be turned over to him if prosecution would be abandoned. Stevenson owned and drove an auto- mobile which he said was used by the three who helped him in the robbery. He denied that he accepted $100 he al- leged Lynch tendered him. Lynch was 29 years old and a bartender. He dled at 8 p. m. Thursday, and John M. Shea, head of the Bertillon Department, iden- tified the body in a casket at the Lu- cas avenue house Friday.

The watch and chain were found on the’ courthouse lawn. Gilbraith denied having taken the watch. Duley lives at 110 Nagel avenue. Eas WHY 700, DRUGGISTS Guarantee and Recommend Vinol. If anyone should know the value of a medicine it is the retail drug- gist who sells it. Thercfore, when over seven thou- sand of the best retail druggists in the country recommend Vinol our, delicious cod liver and iron tonic, without oil, as the greatest tonic reconstructor and strength creator they have ever sold, it must indicate the value-of Vinol. We could publish columns of such testimony as the following: J. C. Brady, druggist of Fall River, Mass., says: “In cases where cod liver oil, emulsions and other tonics fail, Vinol will heal, strengthen and cure,” C. A. Potterfield, druggist, Charleston, W. Va., says: “It is a pleasure to sell Vinol, as it gives such universal satisfaction.” Hunter & McGee, druggists, of Jackson, Miss., say: “We have great confidence in the strength-creating and curative value of Vinol.” We ask every run-down, nervous, debilitated, aged or weak person or any person suffering from chronic coughs, colds or bronchitis, to try a bottle of Vinol with the under- standing that their money will be re- turned if it does not do all we claim.

Im your paper of last Friday the Park Commis- ‘pioner suggested a play-ground as a more appro- priate monument to the memory of our esteemed I heartily concur in the opinion of the Commissioner and desire to call your attention to the execellent site for such a patk. The Old Picker Cemetery, long abandoned, woukd make a wonderful playground. It has trees, which would take centuries to grow. The natural lay of the Jand is such that it could easily be converted to suit the requirement. Compton avenue and Arsenal street is within easy access of five street car lines. : I believe a playground is a more fitting monu- ment than a statue dould ever be. FRANK B. NUDERSCHER. Don’t Give Away Franchises. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your issue of the 20th Mr. Houseman has an article explaining how he will build a subway if a on 2 7 LMA ALLL AL ORS Ne ROE OR el, a BE a IT ERT emo Discussing the timidity of capital to seek Ameri- can investment and the feeling of uneasiness in America, Judge Gary said in a speech to Steel In- stitute: : “7 venture the assertion that it is largely because of such unnecessary agitation and ill- considered criticism by those who have not the nation’s best interests at heart. There is too much demagogue, too much mud slinging. Granting that there may have been over-agi- tation and mistakes in the attempt to curb busi- ness abuses and monopoly practices, what was the cause of the agitation—the abuses of Big Business and monopoly or the so-called demsgogues who demanded their reform? Where has there been any destruction of legiti- mate business enterprise? Has not the Govern- ment been exceedingly lenient with corporations and their managers who haye actually violated law? ‘ Is not the timidity of capital due, not to demf- gogical agitation but to illegitimate business methods which have put Big Business upon such an abnormal basis that the market value of its securities is endangered by any agitation or ex- 'posure and by any effort to enforce honest and just methods? ' - When men like Judge Gary who control vast trusts organize their business on an honest basis of value and cease their monopoly practices they need not fear either agitation or law énforce- ment. Nor will business lack capital. The trust exploiter is a greater foe to business stability and prosperity than the demagogue. Both need curbing. = — i i MINIMUM OONSUMPTION Missouri’s visible supply of unmined coal is computed at 39,854,000,000 tons. It is figured that at the rate at which it is at present mined and consumed, it will last 9200 more years. It would last a good deal longer than that if everybody was as sparing of it as Capt. Robert McCulloch is in the street car stoves. = = * ae a FAILURE AT KOCH HOSPITAL. Inspection by Dr. F. M. Pattenger of Califor- nia, an authority on tuberculosis, showed that St. Louis’ Koch Hospital is filled with patients in the last stages of the disease and, accordingly, beyond hope of benefit. He also say8 the open- air treatment, in severe weather, is handicapped by the institution’s lack of spacious, covered porches. . To provide during their last days for the com- fort of the tubercular poor, whose condition is hopeless, is in itself a fine philanthropy. That, however, is not the special aim of the new tuber- culosis movement. If all the accommodations at the Koch Hospital are occupied by: such patients, what can it be doing for those in the early stages of the disease ‘and still curable? It is a distress- ing condition which compels a person who may still receive benefit from the treatment to wait until death creates a vacant cot, by which time he, too, may have passed the possibility of re- covery. Who is to blame for this condition? St. Louis earth Giasases,” the and rabies. Like malaria afd the bubonic plague, infantile paralysis is carried from. the lower orders to human beings by an insect. With malaria it is a mosquito. With plague it is a flea, and with infantile paralysis @ certain fly, fortunately not as common as the house-fly. The article in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch describes and pictures this fly. The next thing is to ex- terminate it. = = > = ‘STILL VALID. With President Wilson asserting the Monroe Doctrine from Washington and ex-President Roose- velt proclaiming it in Brazil], European statesmen who have in late years formed a habit of scoffing at it “under the rose” will perhaps take a second thought. = a MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP IN MISSOURI. gaged Or a survey of utilities supplying water and iJuminants. Of the 312 utilities of this sort in Missouri, 109 are under public ownership and op- eration. Forty-five of these 109 supply water aione, 29 supply both water and electricity and one supplies water and gas. Thirty-two supply electricity alone, one supplies electricity and gas aud one supplies gas alone. Thus these 109 municipally owned utilities op- erate 75 plants supplying water, 62 plants sup- plying electricity and three plants supplying gas —140 plants in all. Public control of water plants is generally aecepted as the most practical means of obtaining a water supply of requisite adequacy and purity, but probably the fact that 62 electrical plants are also publicly owned will be news to many, The figures show that municipal ownership is well advanced in Missouri, so far as ufilities op- erating with a maximum of machinery and a minimum of labor are concerned. The question for the future is how far this policy shall be adopted for ending abuses on the part of other utilities almost as intolerable as the exorbitant charges and corrupt practices of lighting com- panies and the greed which leads private water companies to subordinate health and fire protec tion to dividends. 3 : The survey will fllustrate the advantage of a utility board with a state-wide rather than a local jurisdiction. Facts as to the costs of pub- licly managed. utilities will be of value in regu- lating the privately owned utilities. The towns of less success with municipal ownership can learn lessons from the towns of greater success. Both can find instruction in comparisons. a ‘= = ~~.

By H. M. O swindle on the grand scale was ever so successfully contrived as that of the Nokomis Land Co. : ‘The members of this organiza- tion had ffliched his Western property from John Haynes, an Englishman; had torn him from his wife and daughter, crippled him with a treacherously Tired bullet, and, while he lay helpless in the hospital, railroaded him into the pent- tentiary for 14 years, under the name of Pete Timmons, a notorious gang leader. Then, giving out.that Haynes had ac- cepted a miilion dollars in settlement of. his claims, and ‘thad gone back to Bngiand, they divided their plunder an1 went their several ways, while the new city” of Nokomis, built on the stolen land, sprang into being and brought | them ample and continuous incomes in | the shape of hduse rents and sales ou the installment basis. The company was dissolved. There was nothing corporate for Haynes t seek to be avenged upon—when he came out. He could not sue the thousands of innocent property holders who had obtained their titles in good faith. No: @id he pian to do so. He had no con- Yidence in justice; he himself would) bring the conspirators to book. While working in the prison machine Bhop, he invented a powerful gyroscope which, when attached to any vehicle or to the feet, even, would carry the wearer at an Ancredible rate of speed along roads or railway lines. With the ald of this, he escaped, Jocated his daughter, sent her to Chicago to await his summons, and then turned all his attention to finding his wife and wreak- ing vengeance upon his enemies. “THE MAN WHO KNEW. ’ Haynes knew that, like his daughter, his wife must have been told that he was dead. That was the reason why she had got sought him out. One man alone knew where she could be found; Chauncey E. Robertson, cf had betrayed him into the power of the more corrupt fudge that had sen- in prison, awaiting what he believed to be the’ continuation of his trial.

In the penitentiary, Haynes had worked ott the intricacies of his re- vyenge, and, with that fixed idea of the ao who has been driven in- mane by wrongs, he determined that to each of his enemies should fall a ipense of the same nature as ‘fthat ¥ which he had received from Bin. between the desire of wr @ vengeance and the need of @ bargain with Robertson, in for the information he needed‘, hurried to Benderville. | + there had heard of Robert- » Certainly there was no man of @ Rame in Bendervilie—a smail, rf city of a few thousand souls came could concea) him- ;. this point, John "Be thought at first that Robertson might be there under an alius. an ol4 city directory knew Robert- furnished his more than five it seemed reasonable to be- one now inhabiting that feach of retribution, and, own share in the proceciz » had fled to another e country.

He looked around him and then per- ceived that there were footsteps in the dust that covered the carpet—steps oth- er than his, and finger marks upon the mahogany writing table. ‘i Evidently this house had visitors—not burglars either, for they would have re- moved at least that ivory statuette upon the mantel, and the gilt clock that had run down—the “books, too, that stood in dusty.rows beside the window. Was it Robertson himself, perhaps, or some agent of his? If so, what did he com: for? | Haynes found the half empty box of cigars in a drawer of the table, lit one, and kindling the charred logs wita Some scraps of newspaper—not without difficulty, for they were damp with mil- dew—stretched out his legs to the blaze and fell asleep, pondering. When he awoke it was daylight. He started up in some confusion at first, not knowing where he was. Theu. stretching himself and yawning, he rose to his feet and began to ponder upon the best means of effecting his escape funnoticed. As he stood before the shuttered win- dow, gazing out through a chink at the deserted street, he heard a sharp click at the gate. A postman had dropped a letter into the box. Haynes hesitat- ed; then, very deliberately, he unbolted the front door, walked down the patch of weed-grown garden, and took the letter. ia. It was addressed to Chauncey E. Rob. ertson. Then the man came there secretly, he thought, as he tore it open without com- punction. He sat down in the library and read it. It began without address and briefly informed the recipient that he had opened a real estate office at a certain number in a downtown street in Omaha. There was no signature. Bu: this was a clew. Omaha lies some 350 miles east of Ben- derville. That evening John . Haynes strapped on his gyroscope skates, and running swiftly along the railroad lines make a detour around the larger sta- tions, he reached Omaha about 2 in the dress given. HIS OWN NAME. | It was a small, old building in an old part of the city; it was.not guarded and it was very easy to pick the lock of the entrance door with a skeleton. key and to enter. Haynes found a little directory printed in black letters upon the wall. He looked for Robertson's name, and’ to his astonishment, he found: 7 Haynes, John, real estate... .44. This was amazing. Haynes hastened up to the fourth story of the building, where, in front of him, he saw his name again, painted upon the ground glass panels of a door which again informed him that he was in the real estate bus:- ness. Two minutes later he was insidv a tiny offige, furnished with a single desk, on which was not a scrap of pa- per, and with a large safe of that late pattern which ve itself “the burglar’s growing interesting. This office, like the house, was evident- ly a bend; Robertson was an adept at covering his tracks. But why had he selected Haynes’ name as an alias? Evidently the safe would furnish val- uable information, possibly embracing this fact. But Haynes examined it with increasing dismay. Nothing short of an electric drill and metal-melting appa- ratus would force it. It was controlled by a combination word-lock, but what word Robertson alone knew, If Haynes chose to remain until his enemy arrived in the morning he would undoubtedly hold him at his*mercy. But Haynes did not intend to murder Robertson; his. scheme was far more subtle—and be- sides, he must force him to confess where his wife was to be found. There was nothing but to acknowledge defeat and go. Yet the man could not tear himself away, but kneeled before "i safe and pulled now this way and now that, watching the letters pass across the lock. His fingers moved au- tomatically, for his mind was elsewhere, and he did not know that he was mak- ing words in answer to the stimulus of the mental images. Suddenly he be- came aware, With awe and something almost approaching terror, that the safe door was open. He looked at the word. It was “Mary.” His wife’s name—for his thoughta had been of her: and that was the name Robertson had selected! A sudden flush of anger made his lips quiver and his face grew hot; then, swinging back the door, he reached in and drew out a bundle of papers. They were letters, mostly, and as he read them he learned for the first tline the full extent and ramifications of the plot which had been formed and put ~~ we eee ee de cold dratts? —_— e. —— vealed willed ewainet wind, rain and dust, through the darkness, halting only to’ morning and made his» way. to. the ad- — American — Famous Dressmaker, Though He Sticks. to “Eyeglass Myth,” Far- nishes an Alibi Against Critics Who Denounce Dress and Amusements and Manners of Modern Women. “Her Life, Her Actions, Her Conversation: Are Flawless,” He Says of the Girl — as | Found Her From Boston to California. sl By Nixola Greeley-Smith. ) MERICAN girls are just a lot of An and Priscillas, says M. Paul Poiret, French dressmake; de luxe. Not in those Words, of course. His exact phrase was that the “American girl is a Puritan.” M. Poiret says: “It is my opinion on the American git) from California to Boston. Everywhere she represses her emotions. She is never really natural or impulsive. She thinks or acts. Her life, her actions, her con- versation are flawless, Well-bred, 4rre- proachable, but they are governed bv system and the opinion of the world. She follows the line laid down by her Puritan ancestors, and Mke them she Wears a uniform. Nothing has interest- ed me so much as this uniformity of dress among American women.” Further on in his analysis of American femininity M. Poiret observes that we all wear eyeglasses, a. detai] which should indicate pretty clearly the depth, justice and truth of his other remarks. However, the myth that all Americans wear eyeglasses is the most sacred tra- dition of the foreign critic. In continu- ing to circulate it, M. Poiret merely runs true to form. In every other statement he departs refreshingly from the trodden path. Un- til he came among us the American gir! had been called everything on earth— formity and the unanimity M. Poiret hes diseovered in us we should join hands and say: “We thank. thee, Fren¢hman, for calling us that word.” Because it’s a nice word and an awful- Iy good alibi for all those other thing« men have said we are. From every pul- pit and lecture hall thunders denuncia- tion of our dresses and dances, of our lack of decorum and .the sweet, old- fashioned, womanly graces. And ‘just as we had come to think that’ after all we were just a lot of turkevy-trotting mill- stones about the neck of the American man—millistones CAN trot; I’ve seen them do it—along comes that dear M Poiret with his reassuring words.

Poiret spent such time as remained to him when he was not lecturing or giving interviews? Or has he really looked upon us and found us ali the same? Here we are the melting. pot of all nations, to borrow Mr. Zangwill’s force- ful phrase. The mere fact that the pop- ulation of our large cities is of such racial] variety would prevent the uni- formity of type which M. Polret: by some strange ‘obliquity of vision has found among us. We are, as a matter of fact, a nation a la carte. The menu of our American femininity is printed in all languages. If you like French vivacity and the highly accented charm of the Latin woman you will find it in New York or San Francisco just as well as in Paris. lf you sse allurement in thé lanky fresh- ly polse of the German, or if you pre- fer the many generations of American layer of ‘German, layers of English, Irish, Scotch, Jewish, any nation and all nations of the earth in fact, you will discover it here.’ So much for the faces of American women. As to figures, they are con- ceded to be’ more uniformly excellent here than anywhere elge on earth. Our clothes ARE too much alike. In that particular M. Poiret speaks with authority and justice. -I think he was quite right in saying some weeks azo that we need to think less of fashion and’ more of ourselves. Yet fashion makes more beauties than it mars.

When the conspirators, having secured John Haynes within this penitentiary at Nokomis Falls, spread the report that he had accepted one million dollars worth more than ten times that amount, this sum was detached from the total capital and became the spoil of Robert- son, the lying lawyer wha had betrayed Haynes to his enemies Resolved to. obviate all possibility of retribution, Robertson had removed tw Benderville, where he took up his reai- dence. But his uneasy fears would uot under his own name was intolerable, he hit upon the scheme of taking the name of his.victim. He settled in Omaha as John Haynes, and lived upon the pro- ceeds of the plunder, which brought him a&@ substantial income. The houge at Benderville he had not sold, partly be- cause he feared to show himself there, partly because his avarice impelled aim to hold on to 4 property which yearly appreciated in value. He also left a thousand dollars in the bank there, un- disturbed. A MINOR CONSPIRATOR. Of late, however, he had come to the resolution to cut the last connection with his past, and had employed an agent, who had been a minor mem»er ln the conspiracy, to visit.the house by stealth and receive communications from him there addressed under his own name, He had rented the real es- tate office to cover his tracks in Omaha; when the sale was effected it was his plan to withdraw to Europe. there to dwell in security. But the letters—to which he had clung in order to hold evidence against the test of the gang in case he needed it— trhese afforded the reader for the first time a complete understanding of the scheme, Haynes learned to his amaze- ment that no less a person than the Governor of the State was implicated. He had therm been a notoriously corrupt Senator; now he was-Governor, and Robertson had not allowed the wretched man to forget his past. One letter, written in despafr by Gov. Harding himeelf, although not signed, implored Robertson's leniency in not insisting upon the vetoing of a certain oS se > in settlement of his clahn to an estate, leave him. At length, finding that life | John Haynes placed the Governor's letters in his breast pocket, replacing the remaining papers in the safe, closed it. stole out, and locked the door again. There was now no sign that any mid night visitor had entered the real es- tate office. At 4 o’clock he stood upon the streets of Omaha. At 6 he was once more in Benderville; and 10 minutes late: he was back in Robertson’s house. That morning he took up his residence at the most fashionable hotel, signing his name as Chauncey E. Robertsc g upon } the register. By nightfall all ti@town knew that Mr. Robertson had returned to live in the community. Next day the shutters upon the windows of the house were folded back and an army of work- men was placed at work upon its reno- vation, As the days passed, Haynes grew se- cure in the conviction that Robertson was personally unknown to anyone in Benderville. He made secret inquiries and discovered that none of the officials in the local bank had been there more than three years. Everything pointed to the success of his undertaking. PASSED HIMSELF OFF. Haynes knew that, sooner ‘or later, Robertson's agent would learn and bring him news concerning this bold usurpa- tion of his principal’s name and inter- ests. But for more than two months nothing occurred. This suited the En- glishman’s plans, for, the longer the period that should elapse before the cri- sis arrived, the better he would be able ty» establish his identity in the town. He did not scruple to- state that he had come from Nokomis, or that he had owned shares in the land company. To the full he adopted his enemy’s person- ality, and when two months had passed and the house at last stood ready for |his occupancy, he had become universal- ‘ly known as Robertson, and was consid- ered a person of much importance at the local bank, where he had deposited the balance of the $5000 that remained to him ‘fiom the proceeds of an earlier exploit acainst one of the conspirators. ‘All this while Robertson made no ‘move. In fact, it was not until eight weeks had elapeed that his agent, mak- ‘ing his periodical visit to Benderviile, ‘learned to his mapneenpeast that Robert- h returned.

Robertson. “Evidently this is a case of mistaken identity,” he said, ee The ¢thes had been staring hard at him all the while, He knew him at last, though it was five years since they had met, when he was a poorly paid clerk in Robertson's law office at Nohc mis. “You're John Haynes,” he whis- pered in terror, and his knees knocked together. He had read of the man’s exploits, of his machine, his. terrible vengeance. He sank into a-chalr. “You haven't any grudge against me, sir?’ he whined. “I knew noth- ing «bout it at all. Can't we make Fsome hkrrangements?” “T really fear you must be under some strange misapprehension, Mr.-— Jenkins, isn’t it?” said Haynes, the name of the cheap little clerk sud- denly returning to him. “Why, Jen- kins, although 1 haven't seen you since you were my law clerk: in the Nokomis days, I hardly think this explains the purpose of this unex- pectsd visit. ou should have given me warning, Jenkins. Do you not remember that I used to have faint- ing fite when I argued cases before Judge Charteris?” THE AGENT’S FEAR. The wretched agent sank in his chair like a collapsed bladder, star- ing at Haynes with fishy eyes, lis- tened in terror to this sarcastic out- burst. “By the way, Jenkins,” Ha continued, “Il am giad that you come here after ail, for I have been anxious to discover the whereabouts of a certain John Haynes.

We went all over the papers togeth- er, you wi'l remember, and finally, as his lawyer, I advised Mr. Haynes that he had a case and that he should refuse to settle for less than a mil- lion dollars.’ The agent rose up tremulously and drew near, fawning and rubbing his handa together. “I can do anything for you, sir,” he whispered. “I know where Mr. Robertson's to be found.

Cote Brilliante ad- herents claim they have the fleetest trio of backs in the city, and if Coach Kelly sees fit to unleash his men today, they predict a record score against the Cape Normals. The loss of Sid Collins, a finished quar- ter and field general, may somewhat hamper the work of the collegians, al- though Murphy has been doing great work in practice. Murphy will show at quarter today, assisted behind the line by Ratican, Shea and Gebhart, all fast and artful dodgers. Quinn and MclInnis will be the wing men with the regular line intact. / Last Chance for Victory. Coach Edmunds realizes that his Pike- way eleven must win today or forfeit its one big chance of the season for vic- tory. With Drake and Missouri follow- ing Westminster, prospects do not seem bright for triumphs later in the season. _ However, in Westminster the Pikers today meet a worthy foe. This team is every bit as heavy—or should we say light—as Washington, and has been coached well by Lemire, a former Mis- souri U. star. Lemire taday will have Eddie Klein, one of the present Mis- souri coaches, on his bench as assistant adviser. Besides helping the Blue Jays, Klein can also get a good line on Wash- ington’s style of play. Missouri calls here two weeks hence for its annual tilt with the myrtle and maroon forces. All the Washington regulars, with the ex- ception of Kammerer, will break into the Iineup today. Play at 3 o'clock. St. Louis U. is idle this afternoon.

Robison Field soccer officials believe they made a ten-strike in booking these teams. Secretary Will Dooling says they are the best in the East and should properly demon- strate the art of kicking, Officials of the Athletic Park League bave not closed with any Eastern team as yet, although they have opened negotiations with several strong teams. President Winton Barker has generously offered to guarantee all expenses of the visiting teams during the holidays, thereby assuring a competent attraction.

Because of the intercollegiate rela- tionship and because both coaching sys- tems are versatile, the meeting between the orange and black and the green is the day’s premier gridiron event. Each team seems to be confident al- most to a dangerous degree, but should the gridiron prove sloppy and the bail slippery as a result of the steady rain that began ‘yesterday forenoon, the nat- ural advantage would lie with the heavy Tiger eleven, although it must be re- 1'membered that the heavy going slows up the shift plays that have been the mainstays of the Princeton offense for two years. Tigers Are Favored. Prestige and the ability to win games by clever following of the ball make the Tigers a natural favorite, although the first few minutes’ struggle between the two lines might result in an advantage for the lighter men from Hanover. Should either eleven “get the jump’”’ in the line, the game might well be one- sided, with a high score. But on a heavy field there would seem to be less chance for wide-open play that both teams would like to have. Princeton took the open play from the beginning Dartmouth was slower to adopt, but both, I think, would ask for nothing better today than a dry field and no favor. One of the day’s real treats should be the meeting between Carlisle and Pennsylvania. Little by little the Quak- ers have’ been brought along by Georg:s, Brooke, and as a result, an eleven that looked to be just the average red and blue team early in the season has be- gum to show signs of really high-class form. On a rather soggy field neither ‘eam will be able to make the most of the open game, and Carlisle’s sheer power may be more effective than it otherwise would be. Should the Quak- ers play up to form and, win the game with reasonable comfort, their stock would go soaring. Good Line on Yale. After today’s game at New Haven, which the Biue should win if it does not show a slowing up in its recent steady progress, the New Haven eleven will be easier to size up. The reappearance of Warren in one of the tackle positions is one of the best signs of the early season, I think, as is also the apparent return to form of Avery. one of the best “‘big game’’ ends I have geen. The Washington and Jeffersoa eleven, conqueror of Pennsylvania “tate. is one of the huskiest and best coached of the small collega teams, and Yale is in for a busy afternoon. The game should prove just such a test as Elis founé in the Army game, a week earlier in the season, in re- cent years.

Up to @ week ago Hallenback’s team looked quite as formidable as many State college teams of the past, but the defeat at the hands of W. and J. was a severe blow to the Pennsylvanians. Neverthelesa, if Cutter is in form and the team does not suffer from stage fright, it would not be surprising to find it hustling the Crimson quite a bit from time to time. Since the defeat of a week ago, Hallenback has been hard at work with the line, and there has been noticeable improvement on the «nds. Cornell in Real Test. Cornell is in for a hard game with Pitts- burg. and much of the success of the Itha- cans depends upon their ability to weather this game, probably one of the hardest on the Cornell schedule. It seems to have heen all but impossible to get the entire Cornel! team up to its top form on one day, some- thing that will have to be done soon if ‘the Carnation and White is go through the rest of the schedule with credit. From now on the Ithacans will have their hands full. Tufts is coming down to West Point with the best eleven the Massachusetts institu- tion has had in 20 years, and the Army will have to improve on its showing against Colgate to handle the visitors. — Manager Huggins ANAGER HUGGINS of the Cardi- nals trekked into town Saturday morning and prepared for a long session with Owner Britton, who will as- sist the tactician in preparing the ‘“‘tin” for the undesirable athletes infesting these parts. ‘“T have made no deals ag yet, but I expect to do extensive trading at the National League meeting in New York the second Tuesday in December,” de- clared Huggins. .“‘I had a taik with Manager McGraw in Cincinnati the oth- er day, but we did not consummate any swap.

By Clarence F. Lloyd. Because he believes there are more effective ways of discipling ball piayers than by fining them, Manager Rickey intends next season to take no money from the Browns as penalties for of- fenses on or off the field. “Only as a last resort would I take a player’s money,” said Rickey to the Post-Dispatch Saturday. “If'I did that, player, but maybe his wife and chil- dren as well. He's playing baseball for a living, the same as I am, and it would be unjust to fine him.” | Although it was pointed out that such men as John McGraw, Frank Chance, John Evers and Roger Bresnahan, whén he was manager of the Cardinals, were in the habit of fining players when they System. : “I do not believe that I should fine @ player who fails to run out his hits,” he continued. “If a player doesn’t do that of his own accord, it means that he hasn’t the welfare of the ball club at heart. But if that same player had to report at the ball park the next morn- ing and run out every ball he hit for two hours, it probably would cause him he got into a game.” This kind of talk indicates that Rickey is planning a long way ahead It will be almost six months before the athletes assemble ofr the 1914 season, but al ready he is arranging schemes to he most out of hig ball club.
