The son said he had never struck his father and that he had intended any cruelty, but that he thought it necessarv to restrain him in some way. The elder Glazer came to St. -Louis from Russia six months ago. He and his wife have been living at 2619 Dick- son street. Morris Glazer and his wife live at 1410 North Leffingwell avenue During his all-night imprisonment in the room, the neighbors say, the father was without any attention, and had the building been burned he would have been unable to escape. ‘ husband had said he did not wish to have his father sent to an institution. Two Chains Hold Him. Policemen went to the Glazer butcher shop and to the room in the rear, which had been used for killing fowls. They found Max Glazer held by short, heavy chains which were fastened to his right ankle and his left wrist, and to a large spike in the floor. There is a hydrant in the room, but the policemen say it was not within Glazer’s reach. The air was as cold as in the open, the windows being broken. Glazer, when asked to explain, said a pleasant tonic in witch hazel or cer- tain medicines, were invited yesterday to heed the dangers of losing their sight through this indulgence, by the New York Committee on Prevention of Blind- ness. The committee has arranged a meet- ing for tonight in the Safety Exposition in the Grand Central Palace, where those who know will talk on the sub- ject and tell what ought to be done to protect the public health from this sort of peril.

Testifying in his $10,000 alienation suit against the Rev. Roman Pawlikowski, a Polish priest, Jacob Brys of 1881 North Tenth street, said he saw his wife, Mrs. Walerya Brys, sitting on the priest's lap and also saw the latter kissing Mrs. Brys’ hand. The jury Thursday, in Judge Caves’ court, re- turned a verdict for $750. The husband said he became acquainted with the de- fendant last January, when he joined the Polish National Catholic Church at Eleventh and Chambers streets, of which Pawlikowski was priest. He invited the priest to dinner and after that the latter took dinner at the Brys home every Sunday until he left St. Louls in July, according to the plaintiff. The witness declared he did not want the priest at dinner so often because it cost too much. Tore Up Priest's Picture. Brys said that he and Mrs. Brys were happy before the appearance of the priest. My wife began saying she did not like me and that she wanted a di- vorce, the plantiff testified. “When the priest left I found her kissing his picture. I tore it into 100 pleces. She said she would write to him and get another one.” On cross-examination the plaintiff admitted that he and the priest had been on friendly terms up to the time Pawlikowski left this city and that he had carried the priest's grip to the train. Pawlikoski is now at Duryea, Pa. In court he was represented by Attorney Barney Schwartz, who sought to establish that the charge against the priest was the result of the plaintiff's imagination.

: TEL-TEL LINES Postmaster- General Burle- son’s Declaration for Gov- ernment Ownership of Wire Communication Fa- cilities Likely to Be Fol- lowed by Caucus Soon. POSTAL SERVICE NOW IS SELF-SUPPORTING Surplus—$3;841,906— First Time Since 1883—Parcel Post Successful—Business Capacity Demonstrated by Government. — By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—Postmaster- _ General Burleson's declaration for the principle of Government ownership ot telegraphs and telephones, outlined in his annual report just made public, un- doubtedly will be followed by a Demo- cratic caucus the House in January, which will decide how far the project is to be made an administration policy in Congress. President Wilson has been giving the project careful study, and administra- tion supporters say he has not pressed it upon Congress at this time because of the enormous expense involved. A pre- liminary move will be congressional au- thorization to the Postmaster-General s to make a report on the feasibility of acquiring the lines for a Government monopoly. Representative Lewis, who was fore- most among the congressional leaders who worked out the parcel post, had prepared a bill on the new subject, but will give way to an administration mea- “gure backed by Chairman Moon of the \. phone and telegraph lines, the House .Postoffice Committee. ‘Capacity Demonatrated. The Postmaster-General, in the report, besides his sweeping declaration in fa- vor of Government ownership of tele- phone and telegraph lines, asserts that the postal service now is self-supporting for the first time since 13883. Concerning the acquisition of tele- Post- master-General says that the Govern- ment has demonstrated its capacity to N conduct public utilities, and, from his present information, he is inclined clear- ly to the taking over by the Postoffice | Department of the telegraph lines and, possibly, also, of the telephone lines. He ares: ‘ "A * poses dy of the constitutional pur- the postal establishment leads to tneſcoVetion that the Postoffice De- partment should have control over all means of the communication of intelll- gence.

Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. EL PASO, Tex., Dec. 18.—To attack Mexico City in co-operation with Za- pata’s rebel forces and those camped near Tampico, Gen. Francisco Villa, rebel dictator in the State of Chihua- hua, is organizing an army of 15,000, according to refugees arriving lere to- day from Torreon. Villa's sei:ure of Federal troop supplies in his victory at Terre Blance and later at Villa Ahu- mada gives him plenty of equipment: for a hurried trip to the capital and to prevent being bottled up by the Federals, who have threatened to at- tack him. Gens. Orozco and Salazar, command- ing irregular forces, have been ordered from Ojinaga by Gen. Mercado, who has been directed by the Mexican War Department to attack Chihuahua with 5000 men. Villa has already sent Manclovia Herrera with his command to Parral, where the rebels are to be joined by several thousand recruits, who have been operating in the vitinity of Par- ral and Torreon, Gonzales to Ald Villa. To check the advance of the rebels southward are Gens, Velasco and Argu- mendo with 5000 Federals at Torreon. The refugees assert it is Villa’s in- tention to reinforce Herrera from his own command at Chihuahua, now num- bering 4500, but which is being recruit- ed and will be augmented by the force which was sent to harrass the Federals in their flight to Ojinaga. Pablo Gonzales, commander of the vic- torious rebels at Victoria, is also count- ed on to join Villa’s advance with his force of 5000, making an army of 15,000 that will attack Mexico City from the north, while Zapata and other leaders close in from the south From a lake west of Chihuahua the rebels have recovered 125,000 rounds of seven millimeter Mauser cartridges and two machine guns, which the Federais discarded as they fled to the border. Zapata Close to Capital. Even the Huerta administration ad- mits the presence of Gen Zapata with- in 20 miles of the capital, and it is known that his advance lines have ap- proached to within cannon fire of the very city itself, although the Govern- ment claims that the rebels were de- cisively routed at San Lorenzo and the Zapatas driven to refuge in the rough Boer-like country at the base of Mount Ajusco. This is about 20 miles away from Huerta’s single stronghold. The Fed- eral District, in which the operations are occurring, bears the same relation to the Mexican capital as the District of Co- lumbia to Washington. The Busy Bee Christmas Special.

Bast St. Louis and in 1874 incorporated as terminal corporations in Missouri and Illinois to build tracks and operate trains over the Terminal’s bridge and through the tunnel. These companies Were the Union Railway and Transit Co. of St. Louis, and the Union Rail- fied that when the Terminal n. car of coal from one road for delivery to another road, its charge is 7% cents per ton, although its regular switching charge for delivery on its own tracks in Bast St. Louis is 10 cents. The regu- lar charge in St. Louis for delivery on the Terminal tracks of East Side coal is 20 cents per ton, and it charges this full rate for intermediate switching. Versen expressed the opinion, in re- sponse to questions by railroad attor- neys, that the McKinley System, which conveys coal across the river for 10 cents a ton, performs a greater serv- ice for the money it receives than does the Terminal, which gets 20 cents. Al- though the McKinley line delivers only to its yards in North St. Louis, Versen said, it alone bore the full cost of its bridge, while many roads bore the cost of the Terminal’s equ!pment. pet 2 8 ee ee 16 * — ees 7 5 ve 3 av . 7 THURSDAY e DECEMBER 18, 1913. to show on cross-questioning Versen, that railroads which are not proprie - tary linés of the Terminal, should not be compelled to absorb any Terminal Charges.

W. R. Easling, Town Marshal, tempted to arrest Harvey and a com- panion on the street early today on a bootlegging charge. Harvey fired two shots at Easling and with his compan- ion, fled. Both shots missed. Easling then went about town awakening citi- zens until he had recruited a heavily armed posse. Harvey lived with his wife and two children in three rooms on the second floor of the city hall building on the main street. The members of the posse took: positions on the four sides of the building. In response to a shot Har- vey appeared at a rear door. “Surrender,” shouted Basling. “We're 15 strong.

Years Needed for Reform. “China today,” she said, “is a seeth- ing mass, in the throes of internal dis- sensions and revolution, and foreigners should remember that she needs many generations to really change or mold a new character. The missionaries in China are a splendid lot of earnest, consecrated men and women, who are accomplishing wonders for education and the-opening up of medical study in China, They are all university trained people, and aré helping more than any other single force tn the evolution of the Chinese character. Yale mission, especially, lo- cated in Changha, a town in Hunan, about 800 miles up the Yangtse River, is déservirig of much credit for the work it is doing in this respect. “Chinese women, while they Still strictly preserve their Oriental individ- ualism in matters of dress, like to wear skirts that are cut on foreign lines, and the American shoe with a heel (not high, but nevertheless a heel is grad- ually appearing among them. “Tt is curious what a fascination a watch has for these people. It is not uncommon to see a Chinese woman, or man, wearing three or four watches, and in some of the palaces and private homes fourteen or fifteen clocks are going at once, many in the same room.“ No Debutarte Slouch There. ‘Ig there anything like the ‘debutante slouch’ in the carriage of fashionable Chinese women?” Mra. Carl was asked. “Such a thing is unheard of,” she re- plied. “The Chinese woman’s ideal is a modest, quiet demeanor, and this is really what she strives. for. You will understand me better, perhaps, when I explain that a Chinese woman wears seven or eight bracelets on each arm, and it Is an old, traditional precept among them, inculcated from youth, that a Chinese woman should try to walk in such a way that her jade bracelets will make no noise.” Mrs. Cari said that although the ques- tion of the ballot for Women had been agitated since the revolutionary out- break two years ago, it had failed to gitt CHRISTMAS BONDS A Bond as a Christmas present en- courages saving—a : shipped and cashed twice a year,.cause donor to be eres and the ever appreciated. ‘the coupons — > = “BABY” BONDS 8 00 A ° e*eeees 1 „ eke.

HE “Brutal Beast,” said to be the most powerful hydro- aeroplane ever, constructed, . @wned by Robert J. Collier, the publisher, made four flights” at Raritan Bay yesterday, several times reaching a speed of 80 miles an hour in the air and from 50 to 55 miles on the water. Incidentally Frank Coffin, the aviator who drove the Brutal Beast, announced after the trials that he was through with flying forever. He thinks he’s been toy- ing with fate long enough. The engine for Collier’s machine was built in France by Anzami. It has 2 cylinders and can develop 222 hersepower. The most power- ful motor before this has been of 160 horsepower, Coffin says. The machine will carry one pas- senger besides the driver, has a wing spread of 53 feet and weighs 2400 pounds. Its propelier is four. | bladed instead of two. .

By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 18—The mem- bers of the National Republican Com- mittee lopped 165 off of the Southern representation at the next national con- vention, and ended their meeting here last night. The plan to hold a convention in the immediate future to reorganize and re- vivify the party was voted down by a large majority. Under the new scheme of representa- tion the South will have less than one sixth of the delegates in the next con- vention. Formerly it has had as high as 40 per cent, which was later cut to 3 per cent. Former Gov. Hadley, as proxy for the Louisiana member, voted for the resolu- tion. Hiram Lloyd, sitting as proxy for T. K. Niedringhaus of Missouri, voted the same way. No response was heard when Illinois was called. H. I. Remmel of Arkansas, who had fought against a proposed plan which would have re- duced Arkansas’ representation eight delegates, voted for the final plan adopt- ed, under which Arkansas will lose only three. Missouri loses no delegates un- der the new apportionment, nor will Kansas. Illinois will lose two. Following are the States in which changes are made in representation: No. of dele- gates under eRRRERRSEBESRTSe HR new plan. „ Georgia — — ů ů Kentucky Louisiana 2698 66 „„ Ge « „„ „„ „ „ „„ „„ The total number of delegates under the old plan, 1078, is reduced to 928. MILLIONAIRES ARE THICK IN ENGLAND There Are 4000 of Them and Their Millions Are in Pounds Sterling, Not Cheap Dollars. LONDON, Dec. 18.—There are now, according to the Inland Revenue Com- missioner, more than 4,000 millionaires in the United Kingdom of Great Brit- ain and Ireland. That is to say, there are 4143 Britons with an income ot $60,000. or more a year. Such an in- come capitalized at 4 per cent equals $1, „ and it is on this basis the issioners make their estimate. A~‘“millionaire’’ in Great Britain is a person who possesses a million pounds sterling, equal to $6,000,000 or the equiv- alent thereof in income—$260,000, Of this class there are no fewer than 214 judged by their income returns. Of the number 56 have incomes of $250,000 to $325,000; 87 have incomes of $325,000 to $260,000; 55 have incomes of $360,000 to $500,000, and 66 have incomes of 3000, - 000 or over. There are 11,800 Britons with $25,000 or over yearly income. Last year 106 British estates of $1,000,- 000 or over paid death duties; and in the past 10 years death duties have been paid on no fewer than 81 estates which 000 or more. What a tremendous amount of British money is invested abroad is shown by the fact that the income alone last year drawn by Britons from their for- eign securities ‘totaled 20,000, 000 Maintains Ne Households, TACOMA, Wash., Dec. 18—In a re- markable confession C.

Dane, and three chil- dren. Parsons’ confession was the re- sult of the death of two of the children and his inability to attend their funeral because the undertaker knew him as the ‘head of the other family. He is usted under both names in the city di- rectory, with two separate addresses. His wife never suspected the situation. As he had never married the second woman he cannot be prosecuted for bigamy.

To give pleasure is the idea of Christmas gift giving. But why give little things that perhaps cost a great deal of money and which your family soon tires of? Why not give something that will give them lasting pleasure, not only next year, but for many years to come? That is what you can do if you give them a Technola Player-Piano.

Caulfield to Make Ruling on Legality of Pro- posal of Board. — The, most important problem under consideration by the Board of Free- holders—whether to provide for a legis- lative body of one or two houses—prob- ably will be determined at Thursday night's meeting in the Municipal Courts building. Former Judge Henry 8. Caulfield, counsel for the board, will give on opin- ton on whether the charter may provide for a single legislative house, nominated elected by general ticket, but from wards or districts, so that not more than one member shall reside in any one ward or district. Several weeks ago the board decided to provide for one house, the members to be nominated by wards or districts and elected at large. Judge Caulfield held that this plan would be illegal. Holds Back on Other Work. While the members of the board havé expressed themselves freely in favor of one house, they have also gone on rec- ord as favoring district representation. The State constitution provides that where there is only one house, the members must be elected at large. The board has been holding back on its other work until the Assembly ques- tion should be finally disposed of. Sev- eral members have declared that they did not wish to commit themselves on other important phases of the charter until it had been determined whether there should be one or two houses. If Judge Caulfield upholds the legality of the plan submitted to him, it is con- sidered probable that the Freeholders will adopt it, and recommend that an amendment to the State Constitution be passed giving the city full authority to have a single legislative body, with the members nominated and elected by wards or districts, Board Almost Evenly Divided. If Judge Caulfield decides the plan is illegal, then it will be up to the board to determine whether to provide for the present two-house system, with a Coun- cil nominated and elected at large and e House of Delegates nominated and elected by wards, or a single legislative body nominated and elected at large. While the members have not formally expressed their views by a vote on these particular questions, the range of dis- cussion has indicated that the board will be almost evenly divided on tha question of one or two houses, ai HEAR THOSE BELLS?

Kaeshoefer has lived in St. Louis for fifty-nine years and is well known as a reliable and trustworthy man; he says: re, was suffering a great deal with y stomach; when I went to the table I had to choose my food care- fully, nothing tasted good to me and what little I did eat caused me great distress afterwards, there seemed a heavy lump in the pit of my stom- ach and gas would form and bloat me up uncomfortably. I had tried al- most everything I could hear of for gastritis but nothing helped me and 1 was disgusted and discouraged, but I saw Plant Juice recommended very highly by some of my old time friends, I had some confidence in what they said and,I just said to myself, I will try once; I got a bottle and took it according to di- rections and I am back here to tell you the results were all I could ask. I feel one hundred per cent . better in every way and my stomach is in fine condition, I can eat any- thing I want now. I think Plant Juice is not only worth what you ask for it, but is worth its weight in silver.” There is nothing to equal Plant Juice for all ailments of the stom- ach, liver and kidneys; it builds up and invigorates the whole system, ens weak kidneys, cleanses ® blood of. all impurities and erad- fcates. all malaria and biliousness; it tones up the stomach and diges- tive organs so you can eat anything you want without fear of bad after effects. If you are not well get a e from the Plant Juice man at Wolff-Wilson Drug Co. store, corner 6th and Washington Avenue, and if it fails to help you he will give your money back.—ADV. vn Phe Best Gift elieu Pearls Bee necklace strand or ring tting of these wonderful earls ts delight the recip- fe and would be prized for- ever.

A BURGLAR IN A ~ BATTLE IN DARK Locomotive Engineer Wields Butcher Knife After Intruder in House Fells Him. Richard Bolin, a locomotive engineer, fought with a burglar Wednesday night in a dark room at 5324 Zealand street. Bolin was armed with a butcher knife with which he slashed his assailant across the cheek. The burglar used his fists and knocked Bolin down several times. Bolin lives at a boarding house con- ducted by Frank Schraven, and when he entered the basement from the back yard, shortly before 6 p. m., he heard footsteps upstairs and, concluding a burglar was at work, got a butcher knife and went around to the front door. As he opened the front door Bolin saw the flicker of a match. Then the foot- steps ceased and Bolin called out, Is that you, Frank?“ Tuo Burgliars in Slouse. „No, this ain't Frank, but come on in,“ replied the burglar. Bolin groped into the dark room and as he entered he was felled with a blow on the head. He staggered to his feet and grappled with the burglar. Another blow on the head sent him reeling to the floor, and when Bolin again regained his footing he and the burglar rolled about the room in each other’s embrace. Bolin succeeded in downing the burglar, and then, freeing his arm, he slashed the right side of the burglar's face with the butcher knife. „Dan, Tm hurt,” the burglar cried, and then Bolin became aware for the first time that a second burglar was in the house. Releasing the man he had cut, he searched for the second intrud- er, but the latter had escaped from the house. In the dark the wounded burglar crept to the front door and a minute later Bolin saw both burglars running toward O’Fation Park. By a street light Bolin saw that the burglars wore tourists’ caps and that the one whom he had cut wore a green sweater. The other man had a thin face and a long nose. A suit of clothes belonging to James Whalen, another boarder, was the only thing missing. WIFE DIVORCES MAN WHO ESCAPED FROM ASYLUM Mrs. Emma Brinkmann Gets $10,000 by Settlement With Husband. Mrs. Emma Brinkmann of 3838 Greer avenue obtained a divorce from Joseph B. Brinkmann,a retired grocer, in Judge Jones' court Wednesday. Brinkmann filed a crossbill and appeared in court with his counsel, James M. Rollins, at the trial. At the close of the testi- mony a settlement of alimony was ar- ranged, the defendant, it was stated, being willing to give the plaintiff 310 000. He has property worth $30,000. Mrs. Brinkmann alleged that her hus- band drank to excess and that, as a result of such drinking, his health broke down and he became mentally. de- ranged. A Probate Court jury adjudged him of unsound mind and he spent four years in the Missouri State institutions at Farmington and Fulton. H~ escaped from the latter place about seven months ago and walked back to St. Louis. Then he appeared in the Probate. Court and had the guardian- ship over him vacated, Judge Holtcamp finding. that the man had recovered his reason. Silver vanities, all styles, all prices. Heffern-Neuhoff, Jewelers, 805 Locust. McCOMBS TOO POOR TO ACCEPT POST IN FRANCE Would Cost $150,000 a Year to Live With Only $17,500 Salary; Will Practice Law. NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—William F. McCombs, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, today was asked ir he had any ambition to de an Ambassador end said he had no idea of accepting the French embassy or any other post in the diplomatic service. ‘ “I am going back to practice law, he said, “and, I hope, make some money.” The position of the French Am- bassador, he gaid, involved an ex- penditure of at least $150,000 a year, and as the salary is $17,500, he could not afford to accept it.

The flaw in Mr. Yoakum’s defense of the in- side” dealing of himself and other Frisco offi- cers with the road is found in the profits of sales and promotions that went into their pockets and the pockets of their syndicate associates instead of into the assets of the Frisco. It the “feeders” which Mr. Yoakum and his as- sociates built and sold to the Frisco at a profit were good investments they were good extensions for the Frisco to build and thus acquire at first cost. To say that the road itself could not raise the money for valuable extensions which could be raised by a syndicate including Frisco officers and directors is absurd. Mr. Toakum's defense of his policy of extending and strengthening the Frisco system with valua- bie “feeders” is strong. His own position would be far stronger if he himself had not taken heavy toll from the road by grabbing the opportunities to build “feeders” and gelling them to the road at large profit. The Fristo might have carried the “feeders” during their development period if they had not been overloaded with the profits of “inside” syn- dicates. P.

GREATEST OF RECENT CARDINALS. If a place of such commanding influence in the Catholic Church as to be next to that of the Pope himself were to be conceded to anyone, such second place would probably be assigned to the late Cardinal Mariano Rampolla. As Secretary of State to Leo XIII he directed during 16 stormy years the foreign policy of the papacy. But for Austria’s veto, interposed because of his conduct of the affairs of his department, chiefly in favor- ing France, he rather than the Patriarch of Ven- ice might have been the choice for Pope of the 1803 conclave. Many of the great minds of the church, including, it is said, Pius X himself, have long looked on him as the probable successor of the present Pontiff, and his eligibility was dis- cussed in especially favoring terms some months ago when the Pope’s illness was still critical. _ It would be natural if the new attitude toward the church of France which had been the recipient of so many proofs of his regard and on whose behalf he had lost the office of chief au- thority, had deeply affected him. Though he had lived for a decade in retirement, avoiding diplo- macy and concerning himself with ecclesiastical matters only, the world-wide impression he had made on the church has been much in evidence. That his work during two pontificates will make him a historical figure in the hierarchy seems at this time a just estimate. At least he had qualities recalling those strong old Cardinals of the past whose practical grasp of large affairs and masterly capacity for direction made them international figures of major im- portance in their time. > = * . n 3 LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE ae THE ANTI-VICE CRUSADE. . \ To the Baitor of the Post-Dispatch. 5 tT have read in twe morning papers reports _ of a meeting held last night at St. John’s Church.

The City Council can, and should, call up and kill the proppsed amendments to the billboard or- dinance Friday. Mayor Kiel’s return to the city will release Mr. Lazarus, president of the council and acting mayor during Kiel’s absence, to preside and cast his vote against the amendments. Lazarus, Protzman, Haller, Herrmann, Hines, Ebeling and Koenig have indicated, by vote or statement, their belief that the 1905 ordinance should be enforced as it stands. Let them express this belief in action Friday, and put an end to a situation which exhibits the incompetency of city government in St. Louis only less painfully than the incompleted free bridge. It is intolerable that the Billboard Trust, defy- ing the city’s law during eight years of costly litigation, should be permitted to cheat the peo- ple’s will after victory has been won in the courts.

Kelly of Johns Hopkins and Dr. Robert Abbe of New York on the curative properties of radium applied to can- cer. That its power might avail against the scourge Was suspected very soon after the ‘dis- covery of the element in 1898. More than a do- cade ago a radio-therapy had grown up. Not only disappointing results on diseased tissue, but harm to healthy tissue was however, caused by ignor- ance of the proper method of applying the new substance. While years of experimentation has taught something about effective uses of radium, science even yet is able to claim uniform results only in the case of external cancer in its early stages. But under the same circumstances, com- paratively simple operations also give relief. The encouraging thing for victims of the fright- ful disease, who should be afforded every povsible hope, is that radium is now proved to attack cancer under conditions justifying a belief that its attack may be equally effective under other con- ditions when new ways of directing its a are found.

LL fasntons these days are 4e- signed tc give that insouciam effect, so that we find not oniy low draped girdle and negligee effects, but more effective than all, an upward sloping line which prevails in skirt, tunic and trimmings. With this style of trimming the en- genue slouch” is inevitable, for the hips seem to be thrown forward, whether they are or not. As for waists, the size too bis’’ look is indispensable for the smart appearance of the gown of today. Stout women continue to pro- test against this fashion; but can it be possible that they prefer the tight- fitting clothes of a few years ago, when stout women secmed to be poured into] their clothes? For those who study their figures, it seems to me the soft drapery of today, artfully done, is a much more effective way of concealing one’s overproportionate curves. It is fashion’s edict of simplicity which must be adhered to that has caused the severe elegance ct previous years to give place to richness of material and trim- ming, but smartness with simplicity are not always easy things to attain. In the design I am showing, velvet brocade with touches of gold forms a delightful trimming, giving speci»! cachet in the form of simulated pock- ets on the skirt. These drop from a suggested yoke, which is defined by a cording merely spplied in an upward sloping line from the back. and the fun- ness gathered evenly into it to suit the bigness of the h:ps around. A chic little upward turning ruffle of the material further emphasizes the yoke effect ani adds daintily to the plainness of the cord. Similar ones, with a cording to hold them, trim the top edges of the deep cuffs, while the drop-shoulder lines of the waist have the richness of the brocade material -:o define them, ia the form of straight CHRISTMA PIANOS BiG.

He really started out very early that year, so that all might have their presents on Christmas day. The first place he stopped was on the roof of a large house, and, taking a big pack from his sleigh disappeared down the chim- ney. But no sooner was he out of sight then the queerest little creatures appeared. They came from behind the binds and jumped to the roof, from under the eaves and out of the water spout. They had on green jackets and red hoods drawn tightly around their little round faces, and their legs and pointed feet were covered with red leg- gings; they were the goblins in winter dress. They looked Santa’s sleigh thing for us.“ “There wasn't last year or year before that,“ said another. “We'll have something this year,” said one goblin, hopping on the horns of one of the reindeer. ‘Let us take his sleigh and help ourselves.’’ They scrambled inte the sleigh, on the backs of the reindeer, and onto their horns, and with their pointed shoes they poked them, and off they went like the wind, into the valley, over the moun- tains, and then into the woods to the house where the goblins held their meet- ings. The goblins jumped to the ground and fastened the head reindeer to a tree, and then you should have seen them unload that sleigh. Books flew in one direction and dolls in another, until the ground was strewn with tops, balls, baby through the bags in and one said: “Not a ‘carts and all sorts of toys. When they came to the oranges and vandy they called out: “Here are the good things!“ and away they scampered into the house and put them on the table, which they soon filled with the nice things that Santa had for the chil- dren. + By and by the goblins who were in the house heard a loud noise and when they went to the door a train of toy cars rushed by, filled with goblins, which bumped into a tree, and goblins flew in all directions. Another crowd of goblins was perched in a rocking horse and others had a picture book, which they were looking at with great interest. Come in and eat the good things before Santa Claus finds us,“ the goblins in the house called, and everything was dropped and into the house ran the goblins. They were all seated around the table and were just tasting the nice things when a tap was heard at the door and a fairy entered. „Walt,“ she said, holding up her hand and every goblin stood up. Do you know,” the fairy said to them, that you will cause a great deal of sorrow in the world by taking Santa Claus’ sleigh and eating all the candy and nuts and other things that you have on thé table! Thousands of children are waiting for their Christmas and you will spoil it ODD NEW FACTS. Servia has placed an order for 900,000 war medals with a Swiss firm. When a native of Feuador wants a blanket he cuts one from a demajagua tree. London has some lamp posts still doing duty which were planted in the time of George III. Norway is extending its industrial training to embrace workers in the fish canning factories. The Reason why there is Always Room in the Down-and-Out Club” is that Resolute Members are Resigning from it Every Day! Germany. Austria, Switzerland, Nor- way and other European nations have for many years been making provision for industrial and technical instruction in public schools. The question, What becomes of the pins?” has been answered by science. Dr. Xavier of Paris thought the ques- tion of sufficient importance to make it the subject of a prolonged inquiry and investigation, and he has given the an- swer that they go to dust. He found that an ordinary pin left exposed to the eiements and hardships of the world will disappear in 18 months, and an ordinary hairpin required only 154 days to vanish in the shape of dust. A steel pen nib lasted 18 months and a polished steel needle withstood the ravages of time for two and a half years. “No man gets a better insight into what people read than the public librari- an, and a friend of mine, custodian of a library in a poor South London district, can cite many instances of a taste for the higher things of literature in unex- pected places,” says a writer. “Among his regular borrowers are a policeman who specializes on sociology; a lavatory attendant, who borrows little else but works on education and psychology; 4 commissionnaire, with a taste for ab- struse theology, and two rag and bone shopkeepers, one of whom studies only theosophy and Buddhism, the other only art!“ Public executioners used to add very considerably to their official salaries by the extortion of tips from their victims, and @ man of any rank was expected to hand his executioner anything from 8 to $250. If the tip were liberal enough, it was possible to defeat the ends of jus- tice. The famous Jack Ketch once con- fessed to having accepted ™ guineas ($100) from a notorious criminal, in con- sideration of which he gave the crim- inal an opportunity to slip off the scaf- fold and mingle with the crowd.

INPOSTAL SAVINGS} Arrest Is Made Here on Descrip- tion by Chicago Postoffice Authorities. Fred Flefisch, who says he is a paint- er and whom the police found in the 3400 block on Lucas avenue, was ar- rested Wednesday afternoon on a de- scription furnished by the Chicago postal authorities, charged with attempting to forge postal savings certificates in Chi- cago, where he was known by the name of George Hendrix. The alleged offense was committed in July, 1912, and was participated in by Edward Burthardt, who was later ar- rested in St. Louis and sentenced by the Federal Court in. Chicago to two years’ imprisonment in the Federal pen- itentiary at Leavenworth, Kan. Fleifisch and Burthardt had previously been implicated in burglaries in St. Louis for which Burthardt had received a sentence to the penitentiary and Flei- fisch was at the time serving a year in the workhouse for this offense. At the completion of the nen Fleifisch was to have been turned over to the Federal authorities, but through some mistake he was released, and could mot be located until the officers found him Wednesday. It is charged that Fieifisech and Burt- hardt were rooming together in Chi- cago in the summer of 1912 and that they stole from Joseph Jaeger a suit case. containing a number of certificates of deposit in the postal savings bank of that city. These were taken to the postal savings department where they attempted to withdraw the deposit after signing Jaeger’s name to them, it is charged. The clerk m charge hap- pened to remember Jaeger and refused to cash the certificates. He notified the Postoffice Inspector in charge, who | began a search for the two men. PRESIDENT TO GIVE FIRST CABINET DINNER TONIGHT Executive Hopes to Take Two Weeks’ Rest After He Signs Currency Bill. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—President Wilson will give his first Cabinet dinner tonight at the White House. A few in- vited guests outside the Cabinet will be present, among them John Purroy Mitchel, Mayor-elect of New York. It will be the first state function of the season and the usual official receptions and dinners will follow. The New Year’s reception will not be held this year, as the President will go away for the Christmas holidays. There is a possibility that the diplomatic re- ception, scheduled for Jan. 6, may be delayed a few days to give the President a longer rest in a Southern climate. The agreement to vote on the cur rency bill in the Senate on the legisla- tive day of Friday, with prospects of its being brought to the President for sig- nature Monday or Tuesday, have made Mr. Wilson's plans for a vacation more definite. He will leave Washington im- mediately after signing the bill and will be away for at least two weeks and possibly three. It has not been an- nounced to what place the President will go, but the selection is said to have narrowed down to some point on the Mississippi coast or Asheville, N. C. The President had few engagements for today. He arranged to take part in planting an elm tree on the White House lawn on the spot where the Cleveland elm was uprooted by a storm several months ago. MURDER TRIAL REVEALS, SCHMIDT AS A FORGER Priest on Trial for Killing Anna Aumuller Said to Have Offered to Sell Bogus Diplomas. NEW YORK, Dec. 18—Testimony of witnesses who appeared before the German High Court of Munich when Hans Schmidt was tried for offering to sell forged certificates and diplomas to students was read today at Schmidt's trial for the murder of Anna Aumuel- ler. A search of Schmidt’s room in Mu- nich revealed blank diploma forms and facsimiles of the seals of the Latin School of Mainz and of the Royal Sec- retary of the University of Mains. At the Munich trial Schmidt declared, according to the testimony read today, that he had left the priesthood be- cause his father was a Protestant and he (Schmidt) could not agree with the doctrine of the Catholic Church.

M. charles A. Prouty of the Interstate Commerce [Commission says his speech at the Lotus Club Dec. 13 has been misin- cent, “In the first place,” Prouty said, “I am not chatman of the Interstate Com- merce Commission, as was represented, and in the second’ place I am only a nominal. member. The office of chair- man rotates among the members, and after the expiration of my term Com- missioner Edgar N. Clark became the chairman, I resigned from the commis. sion several months ago, asking that my resignation take effect Nov. 1. President Wilgon has not yet acted upon my resignation, so I am still nominally a member of the commission, but I have not participated in its deliberations re- cently, and attended only a part of the first hearing on the rallroad rate ques- tion. I missed the second hearing en- tirely and shall not vote on the ‘Anal question at all. “Therefore, it must be ‘Sain that no matter what I said on Saturday night have not studied the present request for increase of rates at all fully, and do not knew how I should vote on the question coramission. How the commission will vote I certainly do not know, and I don't believe any of the commissioners know. They will have hearings and investiga- tions for eight months before they can decide. Wants Government Supervisien. “What I did say at the Lotos Club dinner was that the railroads would have a difficult time in securing a sub- stantial increase of freight rates, in my opinion, until they were able to show that they would use the money obtained for proper purposes. They can: | not show this, I fear, until there is Government supervision of — railroad securities. “My argument on Saturday night was an advocacy in a general way of such Government supervision. I have ad- vocated it for fifteen years, and did not say anything new. Briefly, my position, the railroads will always have a very difficult time getting extra money until there is positive assurance that the extra money will be used rightly, and the only way we can get the assurance is through Federal laws regulating rail- road securities and investments with Government supervision of them. “This has no direct bearing on the one immediate request of the railroads: 1 was thinking particularly of the New Haven Raulroad's past history when I mentioned Government supervision. I meant t6 be understood as meaning that the Goyernment wanted some as- surance that the future policy of the New Haven would be different from its past before it granted the New Haven more money. In our recent investiga- tion of the New Haven's affairs we found records of grossly improper prac- tices ins the management of the road. We found inflated capitalization, money used for improper purposes, investments made in trolley lines, the Boston & Maine, and elsewhere that should never have been made, In fact, the powers- that-were did everything with the New Haven except run @ railroad. “Supervision Only Guarantee.” “Now what I want to see is an ab- solute guarantee that these things won't happen again. They are called ‘by- zones.’ What I want is assurance that peated. To my mind Government super- vision of securities, which I hope to see enacted into law at the present session ot Congress, is the only means of ob- tajning this guarantee. The railroads funder. present eonditions, but, in my opinion, they will have a hard time do- ing so. That's an A said: about the present case before the Interstate Com- merce Commission. But I may say that if the railroads tan show they need more money they will get it.. I can speak for the Inter- state Commerce Commission suffictent- ly ‘to say that the commission~ has no desire to sacrifice the railroads. Let the railroads once convince the commis- on that thelr request is just, and ft wil be granted, Government supervision or no Government supervision. The only point is that it will be harder for the railroads to win their case without Gov- with It. It is possible, but difficult “Le me say, however, that persen- ally I would like to see the railroads big money makers. When I im sure that their earnings will not be capital- trod and ‘will be used properly, I shall be mm favor of allowing them more than what we call ‘a fair return upon the in- vestment.’ I think they should have a liberal return upon the — if losition, and I think that everyone should | the Interstate Commerce Commission to TAFT’S SON AND SON OF | bractiins attorneys, one was a son of stand behind him end give him altake charge of the valuation of rail- chance.

T is interesting to learn straight from the front that Yale is not as much worried over its reverses in recent years fae the outside public, which seems to have a sort of trusteeship over Old Ells affairs. The situation at Tale ig thus explained by W. R. Orthiwein, a St. Louis grad- uate, former captain of the swim- ming team at Yale and a crack golt player: “The d t by. Harvard this year ‘s not considered humillating. In fact the fine rally of the eleven from a broken condition in mid-season is taken to show that the Tale spirit“ ia still there, even if the flesh happens to be week. It’s Harvard's, Turn. “Most Tale men look upon the Har- vard rise and the Yale decline as due to the law of averages, which decrees that one institution be successful for a period only to. give way to another school. Such successes go by turns. “If you want to go farther for an ex- planation of Yale's present slump, at- tention might be called to the fact that the Eli student body ia not nearly as numerous as is popularly supposed and therefore the number of men available for various teams is not so great as at Marvard and other institutions, “Yale, in fact, ie twenty-firat in the lint of universities that lead the coun- try iu attendance,” All of which is very true. But when we come to the matter of attendance, we might cite the case of Princeton Uni- versity, which cnnually makes d splen- did showing with.a student body of 1500 to draw on. „ * * A more reasonable explanation ot Tales slump appears to be found ia Orthwein’s further suggestion that Yale had not thoroughly grounded itself in the new rules. 0 But then there are no rules in the rowing game, in which Yale has made that still less impressive showing than in Winter Record for Glen Echo Temporaty Greens for a New Mark. KELLY TO FIGURE re 2 Medal Store ot 73 on ‘ | : 4 oe IN FIGHT BEFORE SULLWAN'S CLUB South Side htweight, From Denver, to Meet Jack Shelton. Back Leo Kelly, who recently returned from Denver where with Stanley Yoakum, during which his opponent was credited with a slight shade, will get a chance to show before the Future City A. C., next Tuesday, when he is to meet Jack Shelton, an- other St. Louis product. Trendall, Sheiton and Kelly are the “big three“ of the lightweight division in this city and the issue has been close between them. Trendall has thus far had a shade on both of his rivals. Shelton is a hard fighting lad who makes the milling interesting for three who like hard hitting and plenty of it. Shelton ig bigger and stronger now than ever and his bout with Kelly should prove a corker. Kelly is one of the ruggedest boys turned out in St. Louis. He was the most popular of three St. Loulsans who were given a show at San Francisco, some weeks ago. Kelly got all the ap- plause, although he broke even in his bout, whereas Trendall won his mill. while Hennessey was beaten. Mere Bouts for Kelly. Another match awaits Kelly if he can find a club to put on the show. It is with Red“ Robinson, Manager Meson’s Pennsylvania champion, who was prevented from appearing here by an affliction of boils. Mason departed Wednesday for Pitts- burg with his fighters Hugh Madolo and Johnny Ray. He stated that he would also be willing to match Robinson against Trendall and to wager a little ou. the side that “Red” lands the ver- dict over either Kelly or Trendali. Mason aleo wants another chance at Archie Maleod with his little serapper, Johnny Ray, who, he thinks did not show his best paces in his fight here Tuesday. West and Retedell Sign.

I8.— Capt. R. G. Ritson, who was leader of the English polo team last year in its attempt to lift the international cup, will probably be an absentee in next year’s matches, for which England has recently chai- lenged. Capt. Ritson’s place on the challenging team will be hard to fill, as he showed himself to be a most ca- pable allround horseman and hitter in the games last summer. A serious in- disposition will prevent him from tak- ing part in any interna tional matches. In an early start, condition- „ St. Ledgers will go to Marie early next month, accompanied by Maj. F. W.

J. O connor. OME baliplayers have temperame nt, intensely developed like an opera fe singer's, that often leeds them u a weap) of trpuble. Mike Mowrey has | @ finely developed strain of it. | It was Mike's temperament that got the better of him last Decoration day in Pittsburg, when Manager Huggins re- fused him two dall game passes, the eulqvalent of $1.50, and guided him into a petty quarrel with hig boss, a spat that eventuated last week in Mowrey's dismissal with the brand of @ trouble- maker. The inside story of Mowrey’s first and almost his last run-in with Huggins was told to the writer Wednesday by * player who was with the elud in Piratetown Decoration day. @ facts are these: Mowrey's brother and cousin came on to Pittsburg from Baltimore to visit him, They arrived after the morning game had started and gave Mike thé once over from a box back of the play- ers’. bench. Mowrey gave them tho fraternal grip and promised to save them the expense of paying their way into the park in the afternoon. No Passes for Mike. Mike presumed that he could coax two tickets from Huggins, a custom that isn't uncetamon in the big leagues. But after the morning game—an li-inning af- fair—Mowrey braced his manager for two readers,“ as the free tickets aro familiarly” designated. “T can’t do it, Mike,” quoth Huggins, according to a witness, because I don’t care to inaugurate such practice.” “Well, everybody else does it,“ opined Mowrey, who already was getting warm under a flannel shirt. “IT won't do it,” snapped Huggins; “but you might get them from See- kamp. If he doesn’t take eare of you, dome back and see me. I may be able to do something.’ Tu see Seekamp some place else de- sides Pittsburg defore Tu ask him for two tickets.” declared Mowrey, who passed into the dressing ros. Wanted to Quit Playing. The players then hustled to the Schenley Hotel, where they had soup tors knotted around a cigar stand after lunch and confided in them that he in- tended to make one more request on Huggins and that if he was turned down he would view the afternoon game from At s meeting of ball eleven Wednesday Chalfont, Tom Walsh, Harold — Charles Swingley and Tom Beale were nominated for the captaincy of next year's deferred the . ebf Wii ie 1 18 — ab 8 J CINCINNATI, Deo. 18. HARLEY HERZOG is coming { to Cincinnati on his own hook, and not at the request gf the Cincinnati club to make ap- plication before the board of di- rectors for the job of running the Red Leg crew next season, accord- ing to Harry Stephens, secretary.. Stephens aid today that Hersog was sure as a player, but there has not been any agreement that he was to be manager, Herzog secured permission from the Giant club to talk with Steph- ens and President Herrmann in New York and made application for the managership. Stephens says Herzog will be heard before the board the same as any other can- didate. The managerial proposition has narrowed down to a choice be- tween Herzog and Dick Hoblitzell. A meeting of the board will be held tomorrow, and it is likely the name of the new manager will be an- nounced then. * „% ]] ² r y TT ²⁵dʒñfa ]¶˖v7᷑/ꝗ% . p ]⁰“ri. — nm. —K»» . . . |chalantly explained that he would not play in the afternoon game. His friends then rallied around and, after much persuasion, got him into a uniform, after he had previously pur- chased two tickets for his brother and cousin, They explained. that by spend- ing $1.60 he probably would avoid a fine of or more.
