NEW YORK, Feb. 19.—A mysterious voice wafted over the waters between here and Maine for the last two weeks was found today to have been that of Marconi operator on the steamship. Northland, which plies between here and Portland. He has invented a wireless telephone which he says will easily carry his voice in audi- ble tones 25 miles, and that the apparat- us costs only $100. When the Northland. docked here, Ver- milya;. who is only 2 years olé / was found in the vessel's. wireless house hid- ing his apparatus preparatory to going to his home in Mount Vernon for din- ner. He explained that he had tele- phoned his wife while coming down the sound a short time previously. . “On all our last trips,” he said, ‘I have sent the captain's. messages to the regular shore stations by telephone. The other day, when passing Vineyard Sound light vessel, I-relayed a call to a revenue cutter that a schooner was ashore on Handkercitef Shoal.” Wireless operators along the. coast have received many surprises through Vermilya’s invention. Several days. ago the operator at the Sea Gate station nearly dropped aut of his chair when, in- stead of a series of dots and dashes, a voice came out of his receiver: “‘North- land. Wil dock at 4 p. m.”’ : The operator looked about to see if anyone was playing a trick. Finding himself aione, he finished a call to re- peat the message. Back came the dis- tinct reply: “Just thought you might be lonesome, and I would say ‘Hello.’ ” Vermilya would not divulge the work- ings of bis telephone, but he said “‘it was a simple thing.” A Pointer!

Rumsey in New Haven Police Court Admits Theft of Classmates’ Cameras. . NEW HAVEN, Conn., Feb. 19.—Albert K. Rumsey of Webster Groves, St. Louis County, a Yale sophomore and son of an investment broker, appeared in Po- lice Court today on a charge of having stolen three cameras from his class- mates. | 'Herwas put on probation by the Judge in charge of Louls Leyerzapy until June 30, and will depart for hia home shortly. His ‘resignation’ as a member of the sophomore’class in ‘Yale University will be accepted and’ the university will probably detail someone to take*him' to St. Louis.~ , : Rumsey had confessed to the police and’ to his friends, including the Rev. Robert Dension, pastor of the United Church. Rumsey told the police he had a fail- ing for cameras and wanted to get a g00d one for himself... Beside paying ‘his routine expenses‘such as board, lodging and. tuition; his father gave him ‘an allowance of $12 a week but this did not permit the purchase of a. $55 cam- era which he saw at a local dealer's. So he went to the rooms of three of his classmates:who roomed In the same dormitory, Lawrence Hell,.and took their cameras, gaining admission bya pass key. which he borrowed from a campus policeman. This was last Thurs- day. The following day he took the three cameras and with $15 cash obtainea the desired $55 camera, which he has now turned over to the police. He gave his name as E. Waldo Emerson to the dealer. The. classmates from whom he took the cameras, are Arthur D. Platt of Portiand, Ore.: E. Wald. Emerson of Titusville, Pa:, and William H. Gur- ney of Buffalo. They complained. to the. city police, who traced the thefts to Rumsey. It was then too late to drop the complaint. and he was arrested.. Rumsey is a mild-mannered boy of diminutive stature and was greatly agitated by his arrest. He admitted the facts and cannot ex. plain his reasons except his desire for a camera. Rumeey is a son of William C. Rum- sey, president of the Investors’ Real Es- tate Co., 1600 Pine street, who resides at. Joy and Opskwood avenues, Webster Groves.

Joseph Schneider, 2% years old, a oie in Jantzen’s pharmacy, 4401 Olive streer, went to the city hospital at noon Thurs- day to visit Grayce Maudean Jones, 4, who ‘s a prisoner, strapped to a cot Im the solitary confinement ward, an charged with taking three diamond rings, valued at $750, from a jeweler in Council Bluffs, Io. Schneider kisesd the young woman and both wept. He sajd they were engaged, and that they would be mar- ried if he could succeed in getting her out of her present legal trouble, an.i ‘f she could be cured of her present illness, which has been diagnosed as spinal tuberculosis. He said he would engage a law firm to defend her and ty resist any effort tu take her to Iowa for trial. Patient Is Under Guard. Miss Jones was arrested Wednesday afternoon in her room at 5949 Washing- ton’ boulevard, and her four trunks and two suit cases, crammed with costly gowns and hats, and containing a num- ter of pieces of diamond jewelry, were ,aken to Police Headquarters, while she was taken to the hospital. She was at first in an open ward, with her ankles strapped to the cot, but as a further rrecaution she was removed Thursday to the ‘“‘solitary,’’ where she is under guard. The straps were not removed. She told a-reporter that she would gladiy accept Shelp from Schneider, Rev. L. W: Jones af a retired Methodist dis her father, the Stanberry, Mo., minister, since he had virtually owned her, she said, a year ago. Tells of Three Gay Years. She was wearing in bed, at the time of her arrest, the diamond rings which made the trouble, and she hand- ed these to the detectives. She seemed to think that this act would result in the dropping of the charge against her. The technical charge against her In 8t. Louis is that of being a fugitive from justice. Her arrest was caused by the Pinkerton Detective Agency, which is employed by an association of jewelers. To a reporter at the hospital she told the story of the three gay years since she had left a girl’s college. She said her father preached in vari- ous places in North Missouri during her girlhood. that as aie child she worked in a millinery shop, and that in New Hampton, the place of his last pastoraté, she conducted a furniturd store. , Ste said she was engaged to marry Calvin Jones, and that he went to Mon- tana to make his fortune, and was murdered in Butte in June, 1910, two weeks before the time when he had intended to return and marry her. After this disappointment, she said, she went back to school, attending Wal- ter Jackson College, in Chillicothe, Mo, It was while studying there that shu went on a visit to Umaha, stopping in Shenandoah, Io. She met a Shenan- deah business man, who gave her ejm- pioyment. She dressed to the limit of her means, was admired by the young men of Shenandoah, and soon became the ob- ject of aversion with some of the mat- rons, particularly her employer's wife, she said. Miss Jones soon learned, she said. that her employer was receiving letter. from 2 woman in California, which ho tore up and threw into the waste bas- ket after reading them. She took painr te save scraps of some of these letters and piece them together and saved them, she said. Tells of Divorce Su The employer's wife sued for a di- verce, Miss Jones said, and the em- ployer, she declared, begged her to leave Shenandoah, and gave her mor? than $1000, with which she came to St. ; Louis, bringing all the finery she had} accumulated. She also brought the dia-| mond rings, whieh, she said, she had accepted on approval from a dealer, | Emil Leffert, of Council Bluffs, with the understanding that she was to keep the one she liked best and return the others. Her espinal trouble began before she left Shenandoah, she said, and she was taken to her train in an automobile by two men, who held her firmly to keep} the motion of the car from hurting her. | On reaching St. Louis she went first to the P‘anters Hotel, then to 4419 Olive street, and, after her iliness Rowe more serious, she went to the Wash- ington avenue house. | ‘Trunks Takeu by Police. Her trunks were taken to police head- quarters. Miss Jones said published in- ventories of the contents were incor-) rect, and that she had five hats, the best costing $40, and perhaps as many as 2 dresses, worth $20 to $30 each. She hed many shoes, ste said, but not 50 pairs, and three silk dress patterns. which, she said, must have been what the police peenemes as “bolts of ak” ates Se PAE ie 83 2 ge * COURT DISMISSES | BILLBOARD FIRMS INJUNCTION SU Action by Judge Dyer: in Case of the St. Louis Poster Ad- vertising Company. APPEAL NOTICE [S FILED But City Is Enabled to Continue With Enforcement of the Billboard Ordinance. The St. Louis Poster Advertising Co.’s sult for a permanent injunction against Building Commissioner MeKelvey and other city officials, to restrain them from interfering with the company’s billboards, was dismissed, Thursday, by. Judge Dyer of the United States Dis- trict Court. This action disposes of the injunction proceeding and enables Com- missioner McKelvey to continue with the enforcement of the city ordinance against illegal billboards. Application for a temporary injunction was made about two weeks ago and was denied by Judge Dyer. The attorneys of the billboard company then asked that a day be set for arguments on an application for a permanent injunction. The arguments were made Thursday. City Counselor Baird argued that the petition should be dismissed because it did not state sufficient cause to entitle the plaintiff to equitable relief. Company’s Argument. Marion C. Barly and Matt G. Rey- nolds, attorneys for the billboard com- pany, argued that the company had not been given due process of law, in that McKelvey had not followed the course prescribed in the ordinance, but had simply served notice an the com- pany to take down its boards and on its failure to do so had proceeded to tear them down, acting as judge, jury Riceanier Who Has: Lobbied | Four Years for A. & M.

Notice of Appeal Filed: Judge Dyer, in Usmissinge tie case, said the billboard ordinance had been on the books for nine years. Its pro- visions were known to the company, but it went on regardiess of these provi- sions and did as it pleased, he said, and then it came into court and plead- ed that it was not getting due process of law, when it had been making no attempt to obey the law. The Supreme Court of the State had declared, he said, that the billboard or- dinance was valid. The Supreme Court was a court of last resort in all local matters, he stated, and its action was binding on the United States Dis- trict Court on all matters of local con- cern. The billboard company attorneys filed notice of an appeal, and asked 30 days in which to prepare their bill of ex- ceptions, and this was granted.

Democrats and Republicans have fallen under the spell of Scher- rer’s persistent lobbying.

He has avoidéd newspaper interviews t6 a great extent, but has haunt- ed the press rooms t@ supply data about his project whenever it or its rival plan was under discussion. The walls of the Council and House of Delegates today are decorated with nandsomely framed maps, donated by Scherrer, show- ing the route of the A. &'M. belt railway and the Reber approach.

Red fern Corsets ‘Embody the Season’s Highest Fashion Notes The Parisian, the Londoner, the Viennese, the New Yorker—women of fashion wherever found, are fa- miliar with Redfern Corsets as marking a fashion that strikes each season the highest note. However. extreme the mode in dress, Redfern Corsets are harmonious with it and in themselves artistic creations. bee The supple silhouette denotes figure ease quite as much as fashion. Each Redfern model, however lightly boned or topless, or extreme in length, is @ shapely and easy fitting model. ‘ @ ) €; is, — = The cloths of soft, smooth weave have the necessary strength for z « hr stays of heavy fabric and stays more solidly boned, but the popular cor- sets are the corsets that you can dance in—corsets that you can rest in. There is no Redfern model that you cannot rest in, since it is too perfectly designed and yout together to be anything but com- fortable. This designing—putting together— takes the Redfern out of the commonplace into the real artistic atmosphere. We can explain the merits of these corsets much better if you will only give us the opportunity to select your particular Redfern model from this new collection. Jt has never been our good fortune, up to now, to assemble such a perfect collection of corsets for the very good reason that, not to our knowledge, have so many perfect models ever been assembled in any one line. Redfern models are not an extravagance—quite the contrary— they are the highest class ready-to-wear garment at the price of an erdinary corset $3.50. to $10.00 holding the figure regardless of posture.

GOETHALS DUE IN NEW YORK LATE TODAY Ship Is Selaved in Futile * Effort to Aid Schooner in Distress. NEW YORK, Feb. 19.—Col. George W. Goethals, chairman of the Isthmian Canal Commission, is aboard the steam- ship Metapan, due to arrive in New York late today. His ship was delayed in a futile effort to aid the schooner Kineo, in distress north of Diamond Shoals. — Until Col. Goethals lands, it not known what he proposes to do with respect to the offer made to him by Mayor Mitchel for the Police Commis- gionership of New York, which, Mayor Mitchel insists, the Colonel has ac- cepted. The Major has been told that the im- pression prevails in some quarters that the Colonel’s name was simply used to further the: passage of the so-called “Goethals police bills,’’ at Albany, de- spite the very. general belief that Col. Goethals would not accept the police commissionership. This the Mayor de- nied. Stomach Troubles Due to Acidity Seo Says Eminent Specialist. So-called stomach troubles, such as indigestion, .wind, stomach-ache and in- ability to retain food, are in probably nine cases out of ten simply evidence that fermentation is taking place in the food contents of the stomach, causing the Yormation of gas and acids. Wind tdistends the stomach, and causes that full, oppressive feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach, The trouble lies entirely in the fermenting food.,.

Ostatter then fell to the floor unconscious. A physician said he was suffering from epilepsy. After be- ing revived and lodged in the city jail, the pawnbroker said his family had at- tacked him.

EO Tee S WE QrBae & ; sae, much testimony, but their witnesses had not been cross-examined; nor have the investigations by the commission on that question been ecempleted. We are also advised that certain shipping in-’ terests will submit testimeny touching the adéquacy of the present revenue of carriers. In aid of an understanding of the first question and of a proper solution of the second question, the commission, as I explained at a recent hearing, also has addressed certain in- quiries to carriers which they have not yet been able fully to answer. Pending the preparation by the railroads of their replies, we have-been hearing the pro- tests. of shippers against the propesed increases in the rates on certain par- ticular commodities in which they deal or are otherwise interested.’’ At the hearings held so far, testimony was taken regarding free services and special allowances to large shippers. A hearing will be held here Feb. 27 and 28 to consider further the charges for “spotting’’ cars:on sidetracks and fo: similar services; and on March 16 and 17 those subjects will be argued. Rec- ords of the commission show that there are 25,000 shippers’ sidetracks and spur tracks in the territory east of the Mis- sissippi River. Harlan expressed the desire of the commission that the commercial in- terests of Chicago, Detroit, Cincinnati. Indianapolis and Buffalo come together at the hearings prepared to advise the cummission of switching and spur track: conditions in those cities. Other cities also may be heard, At these hearings none of the services to and from and within industrial plants will be consid- ered. It is the information as to what the charges should be for the placing of cars and for the use of sidings and spurs, On March 4 and & the question of a eharge for placing cars for loading on spur tracks leading to coal mines and coke ovens will be considered. That vili include consideration of the cancel- lation by carriers of allowances to in- dustrial roads of coal companies and to mine operators. March 6 and 7 have been reserved for the hearing of the protests against the proposed increase in coal rates: and March 9, 16 and 11 heave been set aside for the hearing of general objections to the propesed general increase in retes and particularly for hearing rep- resentatives of the state railroad com- missions. * Questions Asked of Shippers. That part of the case that pertains to the proposed increases in lake and rail rates will be heard at Washington March 12, 18 and 14. Separate hearings will be assigned later to consider lighterage and other special services at New York City and in New York Harbor, and considering reconsignments and diversions in tran- sit, free storage, etc. The commission announced that it had received many resolutions from organi- zations of shippers and commerci! bod- les advocating the proposed advance.

Free Bridge Grab THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 19, 191¢. EIGHTEENTH WARD VOTERS NOW FOR The Post-Dispatch is printing from day to day maps of the city’s 28 wards that voters all over town may know who thetr respective Delegates are and whether their views on the free bridge question are represented or misrepresented in the House. ——— The Eighteenth Ward's representative in the House of Delegates is \Thomas M. Byrne, a Democrat. Byrne is a blacksmith at 3001 Easton avenue, resides at 2148 Cass avenue. He is one of the\22 obstructionists in the House, who woted against a sub- mission of a bond issue to complete the free bridge by builaing the Reber approach, and who is stauding with 16 other Democrats and five Republicans for the A. & M. approach, promoted by East St. Louis real estate speculators, who admit they expect to make an enormous profit if their approach and is In one of the three elections held to vote bonds for the completion of the bridge, the Eighteenth Ward gave a majority for the bonds, though it ‘dia hot give the required two-thirds vote. The vdte in 1911 was 969 for the bonds and 912 against them. At the special lection in August, 1912, the vote was in the November, 1912, election, the vote Was 1621 for and 1939 against the bonds. Ward’s Sentiment Changes. Property owners and busihess men r2- siding in the ward told a Post-Dispatct; reporter that they were confident the sentiment at this time among the voters of the ward’'was that the bridge should be completed and that if a bond issue proposition to build the Reber ap- proach should be submitted in fhe im- mediate future, it would carry in the ward. Frederick L. Westerbeck of 2233 S‘*. Louis avenue, president of the Colum- bia. Can Co., 128 Madison street, advo- cates the Reber approach. “The uncompleted bridge is costing St. Louis a great deal of money every day,’’ he said, “and its speedy comple- tion is demanded by every interest 2f the city. From,.a standpoint of econ- omy we cannot.afford to let all tha’ money represented by the uncompleted I am satisfied there is not a man in business in St. Louis whu would permit such ea Condition to exist in his business. S “‘Here St. Louis has spent $3,500,000 for Our property is taxed to pay the interest on these bonds, and we are not deriving oné cent of return for the investment. I say we should com- plete the bridge. “However, we should not think of spending one and one-half millions mof to complete it than is necessary. The Reber approach, from ‘all the in- formation 1 can gather’ meets al! the requirements of a suitablé approach. I believe the people want the‘bridze com- pleted, but I do not believe they will place on themselves an extra burden euch as the A. & M. ‘approach would be,” Reeent Convert to Bridge. Henry L. Pollvogt of the Hornet Man- tel Co., 11320 Market street, until a few months ago a resident of the Eighteenth Ward, is a recent convert to the. free bridge bond issue. - “IT have been opposed to the building of the free, bridge and voted agains: it,”’ he told a Post-Digpatch reporter. “However, I now believe that it shoui:! be completed, and will, vote and do ail in my power to aid in the passage of a bond issue to build the Reber approach. “l am satisfied that there are a grea: many people in St. Louis who have also opposed bonds in the past, but who would now be glad of an opportunity te vote for thems’ The Rebe> approach, in my opinion, is the only a would satisfy the public. From talks I have had with people [ am convinced that the A. & M. proposition would be overwhelmingly defeated. We. need men unselfishly for the public interest. “T cannot see any reason for going far out of the way with an approach, such as the route of the A. & M. is. Let us have the Reber, approach, and finish the bridge. The House of Dele- gates should give the people an oppor- tunity to vote on this; but it seems that Sentiment for Reber Approach. A. R. Kopf, a druggist at, Twenty- second street and St. Louis avenue, said talking Jn his store seemed to be all] ‘for the completion of the bridge, and that they favoreill the Reber approach. “They do not Want to spend any mare REBER APPROACH roach whic’ | in the House of Delegates who will be [there geems to be @ universal demand Sf.

Louis, following more than 12 hours of continuous rain, caused street car delays at the going-to-work hour Thursday and gave unexpected employment to hundreds of men who had just completed the task of clearing last weeks snow from streets in the downtown and residence section. From about ll p. m. to 7 a. m. the snowfall, as recorded by the Weather Bureau, was 3% inches. Preceding the snowstorm there was a rainfall of 1.30 inches between 7 a. m. and 7 p. m. Wednesday. The Weather Bureau gauge showed an additional rainfall of .62 inch between 7 p. m and 7 a. m. Thursday. The drop in temperature following the long rain made, street car tracks slippery and interfered with traffic tn although United Railways. sweepers and snow plows had been in use since 2 a. m. Most of the delays were caused by the caytiousness of motormen in’ running over the slippery tracks. From 7 to 8:30 a. m. there was un ugual congestion on the duwntown loop. This threw the cars out of their sched- ule on nearly all of the east and west lines. A switch clogged with ice and snow at Olive street and Boyle avenue caused a delay on all Olive street lines between 7 and 7:30 o'clock.

LOUXS POST ne taper As HOW B® MUCH WILL ST. pu STANT This paper deliberatély proposes the ‘question: How much will St. Louis stand for? . St. Louis should be big eriough to answer it in the spirit in which we propose it. It is time to look facts in the face. St. Louis has stood for a great deal for a long time. How much longer will it be mocked by the rust-covered j monument to municipal sloth and easy-going 8 pscarcep that looms out of the river at Chou- teau avenue? The unfinished free bridge has been the greatest advertisement St. Louis has had since.the World’s Fair. That fact stands unchallenged for what it is worth. There is no use blinking the further fact that it has offset some of the prestige which the World’s Fair added to the city. It stands, furthermore, as a damaging fact against the valued old character and reputation St.Louis -bore for aggressive honesty as well as progressive citizen- ship, acquired through the prosecution of dishonest municipal officers who blocked pnblic works. Is there any other American city of the firat class which would tolerate our unfinished -free bridge under like conditions? Is:there any other metropolitan public in the United States - that would stand for the gold brick offer of the A. & M. approach to finish that bridge when an honest, economical and speedy means stood ready to hand? proportions that would tolerate for ohe day the insOlence and insult of the A. & M. “hold up’’? * Easy-going civic character would not have re- stored Galveston or rebuilt San Francisco, Su- eee) | pineness would have left Baltimore a home for bats, and Chicago.a charred and desolate blotch on_the map. Surely St. Louis does not need an earthquake, a fire or flood to rouse its public spirit, yet there can be no denying that it sleeps. There are a few organizations, a few committees, a few offi- cials, a few newspapers, and a few private citi- zens who are straining to end the embargo ‘on the progress of- St. Louis, but they are a futile handful as against the inaction of the great pub- lic. Only St. Louis as a whole can accomplish the work. Experience has demonstrated that. The public spirit of St. Louis is asleep. The pride of St. Louis is asleep. The-ambition of St. Louis is asleep. The honesty of St. Louis is asleep. The very instinct of self-preservation of St. Louis is asleep when it can tolerate in pa- ion “of its public’ difficulties. § Post-Dispatch proposes the question: How duch will St. Louis stand for? The answer to it ‘your dvestions, What do the should come from the great public and it should come in action. The people have recourse in the initiative. They should prepare to force the submission of the $2,750,000 bond issue. > i> The 19-years-afterward march of Coxey’s army bmi Massillon, O., is set for April 16.

The atrocious charge of which Senator Gore has been acquitted was one which might be easily trumped up against any public official in itis position. It was the “badger game” em- Dloyed to exact an indorsement of public office at the cost of scandal and political ruin if resisted, and so ready is the public to believe anything of this kind charged against a public man that no one of them would be safe from the employment of designing women by office- seekers or political enemies, once the game had been proved workable. The very blindness which made Senator Gore peculiarly helpless against such a’*plot*may have jserved him well in fighting and disproving the chat But he should not be satisfied to drop the matter. There should follow a prosecut of of the public service. ~~ = = rT , Let us hope that the kind of stone for the new State house isnot being picked out under the same sort of pressure that forced the choice of a bond- ing company, : PRACTICAL PUBLIC MEETINGS. We assume that the Business Men’s League will reject the foolish suggestion of the Joint Confer- ence Committee of the Municipal Assembly for & public hearing on the approach question at the futile. Instead of a public hearing for the Conference Committee and the lobbyists who guide its work, the Business Men’s League and the organizations co-operating with it to complete the bridge should plan public meetings in the wards to prepare for the initiative. Citizens of the wards should ‘be brought together to discuss ways and means of organizing an effective campaign to put the ini- tiative into effect. The people should be fully informed of the necessity of action through the initiative and of the steps necessary to be taketi. In this way not only will the way be opened to obtain signatures for the initiative, but great progress will be made in the bridge completion campaign. La i te. rer NO LICENSED DISORDERLY RESORTS. In drawing closer the lines on saloons that give cause for offense, Excise Commissioner Anderson is certain of public indorsement and support. The earnestness with which the new policy is being applied is shown by the fact that in the 12 months after he took office he revoked for ceuse the licenses of 67 places where intoxicants had been sold, twice as many as had been re- voked in the four preceding years. A further step in the same approved direction is the closer scrutiny to which he is now subjecting the char- cation is made for a renewal.

The Scherrer Grab Combine in the Bridge Con- ference Committee has again rejected the business men’s petition and refused to permit representa- tives of the B. M, L. to appear, before them. But the Combine gladiy listens to Promoter and Lobbyist Scherrer and his paid attorneys, who grossly misrepresent the facts. Scherrer with his attorneys is persona grata. They are the advis- érs and guides of the combine members. The peo- ple are not dealing with a committee of their public servants, but with Promoter and Lobbyist Scherrer, who is behind the majority of the com- mittee. Scherrer is the dictator. i> Le. ew ‘‘WORK, NOT ALMS.’’ If the unemployment problém is to be solved, as far as. St. Louis is concerned, it must be by adopting measures that will give a practical an- swer to the inscriptions on the banners carried by the unemployed men. in their march to the city hall: “Give us Employment, Not Charity. ~ “We Want Work, Not Alms.” To bring this about it is necessary that the mu- nicipal lodging hduse be so improved as to make it a real help to the transient lodger. It should be enlarged and equipped in a sanitary, comfort- able manner. And the food supply should be suf- ficient so that the man starting to look for work may have the necessary strength. All this is pro- vided for in the bill introduced by Delegate Meis- ner Tuesday night. Its passage would place. St. Louis in line with New York, Chicago and Kansas City with régard to care of floating labor. If the bill is intended as a substitute for the present ordinance creating the municipal lodging house, it should by all means include the provi- institution an employment bureau. When a lodger has been sheltered and fed, he should have the opportunity to work. Willingness to take employment should be the test of his standing. That test will weed out the tramps and panhandlers, who should be sent to the workhouse. But no effort should be spared in placing the man or woman willing to work in a position to become self-supporting. _—— — _ =_— = COMMISSION PLAN FOR ST. CHARLES. The St. Charles movement for Commission plan government with.Mayor John WN, Olson actively co-operating shows a progressive spirit that must be accorded recognition. Interested St. Louisans had the benefit of a study at close range on the merits of this form ef centralized, responsible municipal government during the campaign for its adoption in East St. Louis. The conditions under which it was re- jected there give no reason for discouragement in Sit. Charles. Commission charters are now au- thorized in more than two-thirds of the states, Missouri being one of the latest additions to the list. They have worked a revolution in the atti- tude toward civic affairs in towns of all sizes. Ad- mirable results have been gained by them in keep- ing politics out of town affairs and giving the people more for their money in cities of St. Charles’ rank and average annual income. To provide the ancient St. Louis suburb with the most improved and up-to-date charter will insure benefits for itself and hasten the belated commis- gion government movement in interior Missouri Coliseum. A hearing of that kind would be} acter of places as their licenses expire 'and appli-| towns generally. \ ——_—_——_—_—_—__—_¢6¢—_____- -—___ i}, . A DOUBLEBARRELED Roy. e conspirators against him in the interest? ‘One of the strangest cases of dual personality ever recorded is reported from Berne, Switzer- land, where the X-ray has just been turned on 4 healthy boy whose amazing appetite puzzled the surgeons. What do you suppose the surgeons found? They found two fully developed stomachs’ in the same boy. Yet even this discovery does not altogether clear up the mystery of where a small boy puts all that he eats. It might pay the surgeons to take anoth- er look—maybe tl®y would discover one or two: more stomachs in the sanie boy. We have seen boys on festal occasions, picnics, visits to rela- tives, and at. Sunday dinners, who afforded reason- able ground for the suspicion that they had half q@ dozen stomachs concealed about their persons. The scientifically demonstrated fact that the normal small boy is double-barreled, at least, must complé¢tely revolutionize the- treatment of stomach-ache, necessitating two doses where but one was required before. — = |S rT OFFICIAL MISFITS. Friends of New York's State Treasurer, who cut his throat when stimmoned to an inquisition into his pu®lic acts, defend him with the argument ‘that he was wholly ignorant of finance and feared that the grand jurors “would make a monkey of him.” He served as Treasurer under three Gov- ernors and had been chairman of a State Demo- cratic Committee, yet was so cofiscious of his ignorance of essential facts connected with his duties that he preferred death to the exposure his friends feel cailed upon to make.

The half and half—beautiful as the Castles danced it, whatever it may be with less expert feet—is written in five-four time, and! the waltz and two-step alternate in it. To the amateur observer the half and half suggested the maxixe, the hesi- tation and the tango, but the maxixe is old, the hesitation is older and the tango is very, very old, as dances go, and society is expected to respond ea- gerly to the latest because it is new. -— NEW YORK, Feb. 18.

She knew thé usual table talk, and in tie words of Dr. Holmes, her evening's amusement-consisted of ‘‘giggle, gobble, gabble, git.”’ She rarely accepted an invitation of any sort unless it was to dinner. In truth, let someone telephone to her to arrange about seeing her and she al- ways made some suggestion about din- ner. A quiet evening at home was unknown to her and a caller might not call ex- cept—to take her to dine. And should such a one unexpectediy come, could he have overheard the comment later he would have found himself labeled ‘‘chair warmer.”’ This lady knew every restaurant in town—especially where the menus were written in another language.

Then measure the cherries, by the cupful; to every cup of fruit take a cup of sugar; put in stone jar; alternat- ing a cup of sugar to one of cherries. Stir well every morning for one week (it takes this long for the sugar to dis- solve), then put up in airtight glass jars. Will keep indefinitely. Serve with duck, goose or turkey. Tapioca Pudding. OAK a cup of tapioca (after washing it through several waters) in warm water, just to cover it, three hours. (Some taploca which is on the market needs little soaking). Then pour over three pints of sweet milk, yolks of six eggs well beaten with dne and one-half cups of sugar, one-half teaspoon of salt, one-half teaspoon of nutmeg.

In that case, the Cardinal club will step in and swap Dolan for Perdue, as Manager Stallings wants D»- lan, and doesn't give a damson plum about Perdue.

PETERSBURG, Fla., Feb. 19.— The four-cornered fight for the first- sacking assignment on the Brown club promises to develop keen competition Rickey finishes his training session at Coffee Pot Bayou. Originally before Manager there were five entrants in the free-for-all, but one man was elim- inated yesterday when Rickey advised dueary, the Utica~recruit, to concen- trate his efforts on the receiving end of the game. He looks more like a catcher. With Leary. scratched there still are four huskies after the vacancy which has not been creditably filled since the halcyon days of Tom Jones. Derrill Pratt and Tex Covington are two of the veterans who seem to have an edge on the rookies, Snedecor and Bold: Fiemingway, still another first sacker, 1s considered too ligt. Covington, Takes Lead. Snedecor gives great promise as a fielder, but has yet to establish his rep- utation as a swatter. Bold, a Boston schoolboy, 19 years old, in guarding the bag. He can ‘hit and run as well as the next, despite his in- experience. Tex Covington, who showed last fall, really has the edge just now, as he’s by far: the most fin- ished allround candidate for the fob. Tex ‘must, overcome a weakness for facterily fill the gap, and in the mean- time his position will be jeopardized by Pratt, who can do everything well but shift his,feet. The consensus of opin- ion now is that either Pratt or Coving- ton will get the job. First game of the season Saturday. Jimmy Austin’s Red Peppers will antag- onize Roy Mitchell's Pan-Handlers. - The hardest in this combat will devolve on Rickey'’s shoulders, as the manager fears the men’ will hurt their arms in their anxiety to “cut loose.’’ Joe Sugden took charge of the artillery- men yesterday. The veteran reported to Rickey in the morning and joined the squad in the afternoon. Among the missing athletes is ‘“‘Dutch’’ Hollender, the former Georgetown U. captain and shortstop. Hollender comes highly-recommended and has a sheepskin to back up his claims. Roy Stevens, the De Soto, Mo., pitcher, looks like a hitter. He mauled the ball in practice yesterday, getting drives that make Gus Williams envious. What he will do when the pitchers try their “hooks” is another question. Bob Wallace is expected* tonight. He will be sort of manager pro tem, as Rickey’s ‘job is too big for five men right now. Sugden wili help to relleve the pressure. PIKEWAY FIVE TO PLAY KANSAS AGGIES FRIDAY Although hopelessty out of the cham- pionship race, Washington .U. basket-bal! players will try to fedeem themselves Friday night by winning the game sched- uled with the Kansas Aggies at the local gym. The Aggies Wednesday evening de- feated Missouri, 35-—-32. in a rough game, and earlier in the season the Aggies whipped the Jayhawkers, who are leading tho pennant hunt. Coach Edmunds will send his strongest team against the farmers, using French, Berryhill, Modisette, Berry and Maener. This squad is too light for the huskies from Kansas, it is believed, but wil! try to make up in speed what it lacks in weight.

By Leased Wire From the New York Burean of the Post-Dispatch.

If the lumber concerns decide to stay in Missouri it is expected that other: plans for the improvement of the corner will be taken up.

Fines have been assessed against the lumber companies and some have been ousted from the State, but have peti- tioned for a modification of the Supreme Court’s action.

This was presumably in résponse to the confirmation of yesterday's Washington reports that the Inter- state Commerce Commission woul’ freig for an early settlement of the eight rate question. he advance, however, did not continue long, and in the afternoon a. gradua) reaction cut off most of the earlier gains. The market was not active at any time today, and it closed extremely dull. “This morning’s formal staterhent by the Interstate Commerce Commission, that a decision on the Eastern freight rates would probably be reached’ within three months, and certainly at least two months ahead of the date to which the ‘suspension period’ was recently extend- ed, sufficiently explained the Washing- ton dispatches of yesterday. “There is no reason to doubt the ex- plicit statement from well-posted Wash- ington sources, that President Wilson had urged expedition in the matter, but whether he did or not today’s announce- ment speaks for itself. “Wall street, which is beginning again to incliné towards foolish points of view, has appeared to be solely interested in what Mr. Wilson could have said to the commission’s chairman at the White House vesterday. “It is highly tmprobable that an exact and certified report of such a conversation will be made to Wall street or any other quarter. “As regards the part of today’s statement by the commission, in which reference was made to the delay of the railways in answering the commission's latest batch of for- mal inquiries, it may or may not be true that some of . those. inquiries were wholly germane to the pending inquiry. But it is difficult to see how any railway could do other’ thau rejudice its case, as matters stand, y delaying an answWer. * Conseols Are Lower. “The recent reactionary movement continued on all the European Stock Px- changes. Consols at London declined % point further, making a loss of nearly a full point since last Saturday, and of % from the highest mark of. January. They still remain, however, above the closing price of 1918. “As a result of the export to the Con- tinent of this week’s arrivals of South African gold, and of some withdrawals from the bank for shipment, the Bank f England's statement showed a loss for the week of nearly $3,000,000 fold. That leaves its gold reserve $24,000,000 above this week last year, and again at the highest recorded mark for this date February except for 189%, but the arrest of the progressive strengthening’ f the bank’s position has become evi- dént enough, and was reflected today by . slight further rise in Lombard street discount rates. ' “As for the French Bank statement, its showing was so favorable as fully te account for the lowering of the Paris open-market discount rate. The bank gains $3,200,000 gold for the week, and its holdings are now ‘$72,000,000 larger ‘an a year ago, and $16,200,000’ greater than at the opening of January. ‘In the corresponding seven first weeks | of 19138 the gain in gold was only $6,- 500,000. The,bank did not lower its rate again today, but if these tendencies con- ae the change cannot be long de- erred.”’ DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S = WALL STREET TRANSACTIONS: NEW YORK.
