Dr. 8. H. Woodrow. Its purpose is to put a stop te the buzzing of human voices in the lobby, which dis- turbs members of the congregation in the early part of the service. Wires connect the buzzer with a but- ton on the pulpit. A moment before the beginning of.the service, the pastor will push the button, and this will serve as notification to those in the vestibule that the time for visiting is over, and that their presence in the pews is desired.

He said there had been complaints from persons sit- ting at the rear that they were dis- turbed by the laughing and chatting of those in the lobby. “P] KAPPA PHI’?

Two Girls in the Design. The will said nothing about limiting the contest to women, but the officers of the St. Louis Union Trust Co. de- cided such a restriction would be suit- able, and they instructed Holm to draw up rules for a competition which should be open for women only. The fountain will be Known as “The Margaret R. Kincaid Fountain.’’ Miss Coonsman’s design is that of the un- draped figures of two young girls protecting themselves from the water which sprays forth from the mouths of A ee * ; | four frogs.

The basin is 73 feet long and ‘4 feet wide. Miss Coonsman will receive $2000 with which to furnish the completed design. The remaining. $2000 was spent on the .basin for the fountain. The specifica- tions are so arranged that the bronze work and the. granite base will cost about $2000, so that all Miss Coonsman will get for her work will be the honor of having been the successful compet- itor and having her work placed in. the library garden. The design must be completed within a year. Miss Coonsman at once will be- gin making the. 6-foot figures in clay and then cast them in .plaster.

BE. Fred Gerold, former City Treas- urer of East St. Louis, on trial in the City Court there on a charge of with- holding city funds, was cross-examined Tuesday by Thomas Webb, assistant to his brother, State's Attorney Charles Webb. In his direct testimony in his own behalf, Monday afternoon, Gerold seemed desirous of giving the impres- sion that he knew little of bookkeeping and finance, and had to depend on hig subordinates, chiefly .W. H. Matlack Deputy Treasurer, to conduct the of- fice affairs properly. He said he dij not make out a voucher or a bill, or make an entry in a record, in the two years that he was treasurer. He said that in paying coupons, he had no means of ascertaining whether they had been paid before. The prosecution introduced testimony intended to show that duplicate. pay+ ments were made on bond coupons in several cases, also that an overpay- ment of $1000 on a judgment against the city was made, gph in mi to show that Gerold had a knowledge of financial affairs. He brought out that Gerold was secretary of the Gerold Storage, Packing and Moving Co., and tried to show that he was its active manager, but Gerold said his brother was manager. Gerold said Matlack, the Chief Dep- uty, was “indirectly employed by the city.” but did not explain how his salary was provided for. When Webb asked Gerold if he did not retain $25,000 in two years as Treasurer and Town Collector, representing two per cent of the taxes, Gerold’s lawyer, D. J. Sullivan, made an objection, which Judge Pope sustained. $137,000 Due When He Retired. Gerold, when asked as to the money on hand when he retired from office last July, said there was $137,000 due the city. Webb asked if there was not $31,000 more due, and Gerold said he knew of no such obligation. The $31, about which Webb asked represented special street improvement funds which, it is alleged, Gerold used in paying city salaries and other current expenses. When Gerold said that the Lynch ave- nue improvement fund, $114,224.02, ree nmiained intact, Webb asked why, and Gerold saig the Comptroller had told him that the purchaser of the bonds for that improvement was to retain control of the funds until they should be used up, Webb asked if he could check against the fund, and Gerold said he did, ” the extent of nearly $650,000. Webb showed that the checks welt to the construction company which did the work, and sought to show that this company owned the bonds, but Gerold said the Illinois State bie Co. owned them. Questioned on Salary sieaedin Gerold was then questioned about thé practice of paying salaries and clainw in advance, and receiving assignments from their holders, which entitled him to hold the amounts of the salaries and claims when they became due. He was asked how much he paid for various claims, and in each case answered that he paid the face value, denying that he made a personal speculation of it. Webb brought out that the money paid © advance in this manner was city money. The name of Henry Burton appeared on an assignment of a warrant for $117. Henry Burton was the witness whose departure for Centralia, after a ub- pena had been issued for him, caused the arrest of Ben Gerold and Raymond Le Compte, Monday, on charges of hay- ing paid him $20 to leave the city. Ger- old was asked whether he had hired Sere at ee team with which Burton hauled gar bage belonged to Gerold, or to the Ger-: old Moving Co.

DEFENSE ASSAILS OMAN CLAIMANT |) js T0 EWALD ESTATE Attorney Says Ellen Golden Posed as Wife of St. Louisan Before She Met Millionaire. LOUISVILLE, Ky., March 24.—That Ellen Golden, who, as Mrs. Louis P. Ewald, is seeking $1,750,000 of the per- sonalty and her share of the realty of the estate of Louis P. Ewald, on the claim that she was his common-law wife, already had contracted one com- mon law marriage in St. Louis. when she met Ewald was the assertion made by W. W. Crawford, attorney, in his statement today, to the jury on behalf of the trust company representing the children of Ewald and Ellen Golden, to whom the former St. Louis iron- master left his property. Crawford argued that there must be a limit on common law marriages in! Missouri and that there is no legal way by which Ellen Golden could dissolve the common-law marriage she had en- tered into with one Charlies Seaman, with whom she is alleged to have lived in St. Louis as his wife before Ewald met her. Crawford said that 600 let- ters were found among Ewald’s effects that had passed between Ewald and Ellen Golden, and that not one alluded to either party as husband or wife. Elien Golden wag the first witnéss. She testified that she was 51 years old and the plaintiff’s counsel started tv ask her about her alleged common law marriage contract with Ewald in §&t. Louis. The defense objected to any exami- nation as to agreements or transac- tions with Ewald, because the other party is dead. Judge Fields sustained the objection. Ewald adopted the three children of Ellen Golden and left to them in trust approximately $2,000,000 of his persona! estate. The defense, in an amended an- swer to her suit, which was made part of the record, contended that Ewald had described himself in his will as un- married ata that Ellen Golden, by con- senting to Ewald’s adopting her chil- Gren, had repudiated any claim that marriage ever had existed between them. Matt O’Dougherty, attorney for the plaintiff, told the jury the history of Ellen Golden’s life from the time she went to St. Loyis from Williamsport, Pa., 24 years ago. He said she worked in a restaurant in St. Louis and then fell into a disreputable environment, where she met Ewald and formed a common-law marriage. From that time on, the lawyer declared, she lived with Ewald and was known as his wife, bear- ing him three children, whom he later adopted. Letters in which Ewald mentioned a pledge ring given to her will be intro- duced in evidence, it is said. The actions of Ewald when the plaintiff left him in 1906 vpelll ‘be described, - aeres : The trial has disclosed the double life When he first came here with Ellen Golden he lived on Preston street. Ewald took her name and was known as “John P. Golden, traveling salesman,” in that neighborhood. At the same time in business circles he was Louis P. Ewald, the millionaire iron manufacturer. The city directories of Louisville at that time contained the names of both John P. Golden and Louis P. Ewald. They were one and the same person.

The officials of the choice ? This Magnificent $ 4 “ DEPEW, N. Y., March 24.—Depew to- day is an armed camp. The Seventy- fourth Regiment of militia, ordered out at the request of Sheriff Frederick C. Becker, whose deputies were unable to handle the rioting strikers at the Gould Coupler Works yesterday, is guarding the plant. The question of placing the entire town under maftial law was dis- cussed. The militia used their bayonets in dispersing a crowd of strikers this morning and wounded one man. The departure of the First Battalion of the Seventy-fourth *Regiment from Buffalo was delayed half an hour be- cause of the refusal of the. motormen, acting under orders from their union officials, to move the street cars.

Plans for carrying the crowds to and from the Pageant and Masque of St. Louis, in western Forest Park, May 28- 31, soon will be made by the Pageant Transportation Committee, of which George J. Tansey is chairman. The transportation problem is virtual- ly a repetition of that encountered in the Forest Park aviation events of Oc- tober, 1909. In view of this fact, a Post-Dispatch reported asked Albert Bond Lambert, who managed those events, for his opinion as to the best plan. Lambert is a member of the Pageant Transportation Committee. Lambert, after a visit to the grounds and an inspection of present transpor- porary change in the strect car ar-. rangements, and the laying of a tem- porary single track on Lindell boule- vard, from Skinker road to De Bali- viere avenue, would be necessary. With- out such arrangements, he said, the handling of the crowds would be so im- perfect as to mar the success of the Pageant. To Handle 80,000 Persons. Of the 60,000 to 80,000 persons who are expected to attend the Pageant on each of the four afternoons, the greater part will come by way of the De .Bali- viere entrance of Forest Park. The street car lines now running near that entrance are the University (Olive), Union and Hamilton lines. For spe- cial purposes, the Delmar (Olive) cars also could be routed that way. At present, the Union and Hamilton lines use the tracks of the University line, at Berlin and De Baliviere ave- nues, as a Y-switch, for reversing cars. This arrangement, an awkward one in ordinary times, would be intolerable in the handling of a great crowd, Lambert said. Lambert also pointed out that the dis- tance from the present loading and un- loading place, at Berlin and De Bali- viere avenues, to the nearer side of Art Hill, is 3000 feet, or more than a half mile, and to the farther side 3690 feet. A nearer unloading point is de- sirable, he declared... It cannot be found on the University line, which runs over a long viaduct west of De Baliviere ave- nue. . eiiieie ie Proposes Special Track. He said the switching problem would be solved, and the best place for load- ing and unloading would be provided by the laying of a temporary single track in Lindéll boulevard, from De Baliviere to Skinker, with connections with the University line at each end. This special track would be laid on the surface of the street and would-be used for gastbound cars. Persons going to the park would remain on the car’ until after the turn east from Skinker road, and would get off just west of River des Peres, 1600 feet from the west side of Art Hill. During the latter part of the performance cars would be parked on the special track to await the crowds at the close of the perform- ance, and they would be loaded at the unloading point and all along the spe- cial track. ; One objection is likely to be made to Lambert's plan. This is that a grade crossing over the Wabash and Rock Island railroad tracks would be required in making the connection on De Bali- viere avenue between the special track on Lindell and the main line on Berlin. Lambert said this was not so serious a problem as it might seem, since. there now are street car tracks in De wsali- viere avenue and across the railroad tracks. The railroads and the city au- thorities would have to take especial precautions during the pageant days, Lambert said. Automobiles to Be Cared For. On pageant days, Lambert declared. the streets and park driveways be- tween the street car tracks and Art Hill should be closed to automobiles. This would include De Baliviere avenue anid Lindell boulevard, west of Union ave- nue. A plan for parking automobiles +o the east of the Pageant site should be worked out, Lambert said. The special street car arrangements, Lambert said, should be tsed not only on the days of the Pageant, but on the days immediately preceding, when thou- sands of the Pageant actors will be going to the grounds for rehearsal, and when many other persons will be going out to look over the stage and prepara- tions. He hopes other suggestions wil! be offered so that the Transportation Committee will have a variety of plans to choose from. cm CEDVICE TO) |. . TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 24, 1914. “a y 7 ST.

ENTRY LIST STILL_ OPEN Fully Fifty Nines Expected to Be in.Organization When Polls Close. Captains and managers of 2% teams called at the Post-Dispatch office Mon- day to make application for membership in the Post-Dispatch Public School Baseball League. The first games of the 1914 season will not be played until April 11, but much interest is already being displayed in the annual competi- tion to determine St. Louis’ best pub- lic schogl baseball team. It has. been decided to receive appli- cations for membership in the league untit Thursday afternoon. That means that teams desiring to obtain member- ship in the Post-Dispatch league will have to have their captains or managers file application with the manager of the league by March 26, after school hours. Judging from the fact that 2% teams made application for membership on the first day that the contest was opened, it is believed that 50 teams will join the league this season. Membership Cards Issued. The captains and managers who called Monday received 11 membership cards, This allows each team two substitute layers.

NEW YORK, March 2%4.—All feeling of anxiety regarding the safety of Col: Theodore Roosevelt, who is in the jungle has been removed by addi- tional advices received from Anthony p Fiala, whose party lost their equipment in the rapids of the Devil in the Papa- galo River. Fiala reports that the Colonel is in _ good health and was not with the party that met with mishap. With another part of the expedition, Roosevelt is ex- ploring the Rio Duivata or River of Doubt, a hitherto unexplored stream. Fiala says Col. Roosevelt will reach Manaos early in April, the point mark- ing the end of the expedition. From there the former President will start for Madrid to attend the wedding of his son Kermit. Fiala states that he lost two canoes loaded with food and equipment, but his party of eight men are safe. He sent tne dispatch from Santarem, Brazil, and was to leave that place for Manaos today. $6 Rents a Safe Deposit Box fora Year.

PECK ENDED SPLIT OVER SIZE OF ALDERMAN BODY Aloe and McDonald Want 14 Members .Instead of 28 Now Agreed On. VOTE WILL BE’ TAKEN Question Will Be Disposed of When All the Freeholders Are at Meeeting. A serious division in the Board of Freeholders over the plan of a legisia- tive body to be provided in the new city charter became epparent Thurs- day night, when Louis P. Aloe called up the question of reducing the num- ber of members of the Board of Alder- men from 28 to 14. Aloe said he believed a serious mis- take had been made in providing for a Board of Aldermen of 28 members. Chairman Jesse McDonald agreed with Aloe, and said he believed the legisla- tive assembly provided in the new charter was worse than the present double house system. Aloe was absent from the meeting two weeks ago when the EKreeholders for a second time agreed on a Board of Aldermen of 2% members. Under the plan ,in the new charter these 28 members ’ will be nominated at large and elected at-large, but each ward will be entitled to one member. Four Support Small House. The objection raised by Aloe was that the 28-member board defeated the idea of a short baflot, which is pre- vailing In all modern city governments. Aloe and Frederick N. Judson were absent when the last vote was taken on this question, but were recorded as voting for 14 members. Chairman Mc- Donald and Thomas J. Rowe were the other two members who supported the 14 members idea. LFE IN FEAR OF ANOTHER COLLAPSE Writer Had Been in Poor Health for Month Following Re- covery Year Ago, STAMFORD, Conn., March 24.—Harry Thurston Peck, formerly a professor at Columbia University and a writer of note, who shot and killed himself yes- terday in his room in a cheap lodging house, is believed to have ended his life because he feared a recurrence of the mental trouble he suffered last year. Peck gained much: notoriety in the last few years through his. marital troubles and a breach of promise suit. Dr. Peck was seriously ill at Ithaca, Nea ¥., about a year ago, from a mental breakdown, and was thought to be dying. His divorced wife, Mrs. Caro- line D. Peck, a Christian Scientist, at- tended him, and he ultimately regained his strength. His second wife also was at his bedside, and there seemed to be no friction between the two women. Embarrassed by financial difficulties, Dr. Peck gave up his home, engaged a room in a lodging house and took his meals at a small restaurant. He was working on an encyclopedia for a New York publishing house.. His health had been delicate the last month. His body was taken in charge by his divorced wife, Mrs. Cornelia D. Peck, and his daughter, Miss Constance Peck. His second wife, who lives on Staten Island, was notified, but nothing has been heard from her.

The Canadian Government is sending the whaler to the relief of the Karluk, which with the greater part of her crew has been missing for sev-' eral months. Explorer Stefansson, commander of tho expedition, who with three of the crew left the Karluk, which was fast in the ice to hunt caribou, could find no trace of the vessel when they returned. The ice had been broken up by a gale and the ship? it is supposed, drifted east- ward. Capt. C. T.. Pedersen, master of the Herman, believes he will find the Kar- luk somewhere between Point Barrow and Herschall Island, locked among tie icebergs. By the time the whaler reaches the Arctic, it is expected the ice will be sufficiently broken up to permit the ship to search the wastes. et TAKE IT FROM ME, DICK. you can tis a genuine diamond for ‘$1 a week of Lo Bros. & Co., » 24 floor. 308 N. 6th st.

It was agreed by the.board that the subject would be called up for a final vote when all the members were in at- tendance at some subsequent meeting. Aloe said he thought the members who favored the smaller body might be able t2 make some converts by ‘their argu- ments. ‘| Freeholder Langemann, who favors 28 jmembers, said Aloe should remember that those who favored the larger body might also be able to convert some who favor the smaller body. The Freeholders decided to make no provision in the new charter for the City Plan Commission. That will be left ' to the Board of Aldermen, as under the present charter. The members of the ! City Plan Commission are mostly cit- | izens who are giving their time to civic | work. It was the idea of the Freehold- ers that this should be encouraged, but it was thought the Board of Aldermen would do that. Just what sort of powers to give the Fire Marshal has been a puzzle to the Freeholders. In the originally adopted | trovision on this subject the Fire Mar- shal was given the power to subpena and interrogate witnesses and compel the production of books and papers. Fire Marshal Plan Stands. Freeholder Judson said that this was clething the Fire Marshad with judicial powers, which, he thought, was a mon- strous idea. He said he believed it was; better to have the city overrun. with firebugs than to give the Fire Marshal such sweeping power. A vote was taken but the members who objected to the' provision lacked the necessary seven votes to have it stricken out. The Freeholders will attend a Civic. League dinner Thursday night at which Herbert 8. Bigelow of Cincinnati will | be the guest of honor.

To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. I desire to call the attention of the public and the committee appointed by the Municipal As- sembly to investigate the M. A. C. disaster to ‘additional means for escape from a building on fire. New ordinances may be necessary to en- force the plan to be suggested. All present methods of escape from a building on fire, as is well known, are by means of the fire escapes, ropes, etc. Fire escapes are a good thing to have on buildings where required, but they are worthless in some cases. For instance, if there is a fierce fire on the fifth or sixth floor of a building, cutting off all downward escape with many.people trapped in the upper floors, what is to be done?—two things—jump or burn to death. All thought has beefl devoted to means for descending. Why not also provide means Yor ascending? Why not provide scuttle hole roof exits with fron ladders arranged with a hand ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, TUESDAY EVEN LNG, MARCH 24, x91, — ~~ aee THE REAL ISSUE. Congress now has the advantage of Mr. Taft, who, as Secretary of War, passing upon the ques- tion of forfeiting the Merchants’ Bridge, decided that there should be proceedings in court to de- termine whether or not grounds for forfeiture ex- isted. The United States Supreme Court has de- 3 cided, after consideration of all the facts in the case, that an illegal combination—a conspiracy in restraint of trade—existed between the St. Louis bridges and terminals under the manage- ment of the St. Louis wiabrenein Railway Asso- ciation. This decision affirms the charge that the charter of the Merchants’ Bridge was violated and the specific purpose for which the bridge was char- tered and built—the prevention of monopoly—was defeated. The Court ordered the reorganization of the combination, with the elimination of mo- nopoly contracts, practices and charges, on pain of dissolution. In the light of the facts and of the Supreme Court’s decision, the evasive explanations of Thomas M. Pierce, attorney for the Terminal, be- fore the Senate committee are pitiful. Even Mr. Pierce, pleading that the bridge combine’ had avoided violating the letter of the charter, ad- mitted it had violated the spirit; in short, that it had devised an ingenious scheme to nullify the intent and purpose of the congressional charter, without technical violation of the actual letter of the instrument. The plea is shameful and absurd, but assuming its correctness, will Congress countenance and condone the defeat of its purpose embodied in jlaw by ingenious and subtle deceptions and tech- nical evasions? Is the law’s intent to be ignored when a powerful combine of corporations want to’ twist its meaning to its oppressive and '| plundering schemes? ' The charter prohibition of pooling or consolida- tion is clear. The proof of the organization of a monopoly combine in violation of the prohibi- tion is plain. This is the conclusion of the Court. It is admitted by the Terminal. The charter provides in plain English that for this offense the bridge shall be forfeited to the United States Government “without legal pro- ceeding.” gi The issue is thus defined with translucent clar- ity. It is not whether ample grounds for the for- feiture of the bridge exist, or whether Congress has the right to forfeit it. This is demonstrated. The real issue is whether Congress will serve mo- nopoly .or the people; whether Congress will en- force its own laws for the protection of the public from monopoly or will ignore them for the bene- fit of monopolists. 2 If the Democratic pledges to nostic law and destroy monopoly mean anything the Merchants’ Bridge ‘will be forfeited. = = i i ceive a more favorable hearing. For the present, should the new charter be adopted, we shall have city elections every two years—in 1915 and quad- riennially thereafter chosing 14 of the 28 Alder- men and the President of the Board of Alder- men; in 1917 and quadriennially thereafter the Mayor, Comptroller and the other 14 Aldermen. It is hoped this plan will produce some better- ment of the public service without too seriously encroaching upon the vested rights of the indus- try of ward politics. = = rw : THE MURPHY FILLIBUSTER. Boss, Murphy was ‘a party issue at Baltimore. | He is a national reproach at Washington, where he is openly working against the repeal of the Panama toll exemption measure in the interest of the Shipping Trust. The bigness of the job Bryan did at Balti- more is emphasized by this Washington news of March 21: : Today Mr. O’Gorman talked to a number of Democrats from New York who are anxious to vote in line with the wishes of the President. He is reported to have told these members that Tammany needs their votes against the repeal and that Murphy expects them to vote against the repeal as the price of their re- nomination to Congress. Murphy cannot hold up the administration can nation with a handful of New York votes— but suppose that he held the Democratic party in the hollow of his hand? As it is, the line is clearly drawn, and the old fight is on—between the forces of honesty and progress and the powers of privilege and corruption in government. The Democratic par- ty and the democracy of the nation are on trial cn precisely the same issue of control upon which they were tried at Baltimore. Murphy’s opposition involves the issue of our international honesty with a question of domes- tic morals in every way as vital to this country —and the result should be prompt and decisive. a A i i A The new naval fighter Oklahoma is dedicated to “errands of peace.” New additions to the Kaiser’s equipment of militarism are always ded- icated to the same thing. ‘= =] — NEW ST. LOUIS ADJECTIVE. The trouble with many St. Louis women is that they are too “West-End-y,” according to a wom- an evangelist who spoke at the Y. W. C. A. Their knowledge of the larger St. Louis that does not include the West End is so limited they cannot appreciate conditions against which less fortunate fellow residents must contend. This is of course only equivalent to saying that one fraction of the world does not know how ithe other fraction lives. However, the upstand- ing and useful new adjective has an application tu a wider field than welfare work and to others than women. There is too much of this ‘““West- End-y” quality in all kinds of St. Louis effort. _ There is also too much of the “North-End-y” quality and of the ‘“South-Side-y” quality. The viewpoints of Baden, Carondelet and other dis- tricts should be merged in a Pan-St. Louis spirit {) movements affecting the community as a whole. = = ‘ ~~ SS THE PRISON CONTRACTORS’ MULHALL.

He has done some fine things, such as making the School Board pyt fire escapes on the schools. And how hard he had to fight for this! Blame the rich men at the head of things. They are the ones who caused the great disaster, as they knew the condition of affairs. Also the men who lived in the M. A.

In this way, he says, the people would “save half the expense, agita- tion and excitement caused by our municipal elections.” True. True also that with terms long enough to afford first-class men opportunity to make a career in the public service, more high-grade men would offer for these places, and the level of the service would be raised—perhaps to an equality with the municipal administration of the European cities, whose administrative off- long as they can “make good.” The vital objection to Mr. Corwin’s plan that it would.destroy an old and well-established American industry, ward politics to wit: Prepa- retion for and manipulation ‘of frequent city elections afford a livelihood for a large num- ber of talented citizens. They do not hold office nor draw official pay. They derive their income from private interests of one kind or af- other, which have need either to obtain special favors from city governments or to protect them- selves against predatory raids by city _govern- ments. Would Mr. Corwin, on second thought, wish to take the bread out of their mouths, do violence to their pride as members of the rul- ing caste, and force them to resort to ordinary labor, such as all the rest of us perform ?—would Mr. Corwin have the Freeholders do this, merely * | te improve the administration of the city’s busi- hes ‘pess affairs? ie garanlaanmmatare scat Mr. A. B. Corwin, in a letter to the Post-Dis- cers hold office: virtually for life, or at least sol committee that he is retained at’ Washington by prison contractors to defeat legislation against convict-made goods. Mr. Boyle is a former Treasurer of the National Conference of Corrections and Charities. His value to his prison contractor employers is indi- cated by the fact that he has been on their salary roll at a handsome figure since 1908 and is now in receipt of $100 a day for defending their in- terests. Lobbyists are dependent for success on condi- tions that enable their motives to remain in- visible and the influences they exert to be applied in secret. A lobby law requiring them to appear in their true character destroys all illusions as tc public-spirited action and compels them to work in the open. Officials cannot afford to deal with men who are known to earn their salaries by resisting the performance of public duty. Under such a law men like Mr. Boyle could not capitalize a: con- nection with an honorable and respected organ- ization. For effective suppression of the contract sys- tem, Federal co-operation is essential. That system is now tolerated in many states simply because its products are largely marketed in states other than those in which they are manufactured. Contrac- tors would find the exploitation of the labor of prisoners much less profitable if they were con- fined to the markets of the state in which they operate. States would throw the system out of their own prisons if assured that convict-made goods would not flow in through interstate chan- nels from the prisons of sister states. = = * rere Resolute adherence to the “tipless” policy at the reopened Southern Hotel will mean the same deference to the now exploited public at other hotels.

The varia- tion is said to be so great in some cases as to affect the properties of prescriptions, especially those in which inaccurate weights are combined with accurate liquid measurements.

By Edith Livingston Smith. R. NORTON DREW was tired. So was the white horse which carried him in his buggy up the steep hill toward a pretty cot- tage at the top; away from the town, away from the factories, where the emoke belched forth and the big brick juilding stood like a blot against the (opal sky. To go progressive, Dr. Drew should have a motor car. This he knew full well. To be still more progressive, he should leave Williamsville, with its reeking tenements, its mill population, and the tragedies of sickness and death among the poor. This life was wearing out: and youth was in his heart, ability in his makeup, and perhaps even fame before him, if he could get more time for study. But it takes money to go abroad to study, and it takes money to exchange a white horse, no longer vroung, for a motor car. Perhaps I need hardly mention the ,act that tin the pretty cottage at the top of the hill lived Carlotta Morse, a maiden with a aspring-like face, sa nymph-like form and a woman’s soul. Carlotta met him at the door, and coaxed him prettily to the belated tea table, where she made him a cup of tea with capable fingers before she asked him questions. He looked at her thoughtfully across the tea table. “That our dreams have come true,” 1e sald whimsically; “yes—such is the saradox of life—dreams are not always unmixed with waking joys. If I go to Jermany, I leave you behind.” She gave a little cry of delight. “Norton! To Germany—to study?” *T can go,” he said shortly. “I heard vis morning from a lawyer, and in the déte wae a check for $2000. My father’s sousin left it to me, for some strange reason. Lotta, are you glad? It will be hard to leave you, but it is what we have wished.” She slipped to her knees before him, and took his hand in her own gentle ‘ “Glad, yes, and sorry. It will be lone- ‘y, but it will be glorious in the end. Think of your having what you have always wanted! Think of what these big hands can accomplish with the op- portunity!’ Her face shone with en- thusiasm. ‘‘The,next best thing to being @ great man is to love one,” she whis- pered; “and you will be great some day, Norton—I know you will!” “T will fight for it,” he said, “and perhaps I shall win.” The door bell pealed suddenly, and the girl rose to her feet. “Is Dr. Drew here?’ they heard a Voice say excitedly. “Mj, man’s sick, — Q@nd I saw the doctor’s horse outside.”’ The doctor stood up. “Good-by, dear,”” he whispered. ‘I'll Bee you tomorrow night. Good evening, Mrs. Merle. Yes, I will come with you et once.” He turned Chariot’s head toward the town. Mrs. Merle’s man was, indeed, “bad’’—so bad that the doctor grew what that means.” stairs, had not a voice arrested him. “Oh, Drew! I’ve been waiting for you for half an hour, I’ve simply’ got to see you a moment.” Dick Morse, Carlotta’s brother, drew him into the library and shut the dogr. By one look at the young man’s face the doctor knew that here was another type of illness to face—mental agony. “What is it?” he said kindly. ‘Did you just come from New York? For pity’s sake, what's the matter with you?” | “The bank!’ he whispered huaskily. “The usual story. I didn’t meen to, of course, Norton; you know I'm no thief, if I am fool—I mean I am 4 thief, but it doesn’t come naturally. I was up against it hard. I've been hon- estly trying to brace up. You know I have, because—oh, well, the same ‘be- cause’ that most of us have. I guess —a woman, I thought I would take it just for a week—speculation, of course —and it’s gone!’’ The doctor’s mind flew to Carlotta, to her father, the quiet invalid scholar—na it could not be known. “How much do you need?” he said tensely. “Three thousand,’’ Morse said in a low tone. “I can let you have $2000—yes, $2500 —and I think I can borrow ‘the rest. I will come to the city tomorrow, but you'll have to tell them at the bank.” ‘*“T know,’ said Dick humbly. ‘You're doing it for Carlotta, but it gives me an- otherchance!”’, The next, evening, the doctor climbed the hill without Chariot. She munched her oats in the stable, weary but sat- isfied. In the pretty little parlor of the house on the hill he found Carlotta, and he kissed her tenderly. She waited until he had taken the big arm chair before she asked her timid question. “Norton, is it typhoid in the tene- ments? Oh, say it isn’t!’ ‘But it is,” he said. “‘Five cases yes- terday, 10 more today—how many to- morrow? We are doing everything we can, It’s pretty bad!’’ Carlotta glazed at the dark rings un- der his keen gray eyés. **You are going to Germany,” she said eagerly. “You said so last night. Now you must go at once.” ~ “No,” he said, with cheery decision. “I am not going now.” Carlotta gulped back a sob. “But why?’ she said miserably. “You have the money now. If you stay at home you might spend it, and you may never have $2000 again.” “Very likely not,’’ he agreed, smiling: ‘‘“so you had better marry me at once, for love! Seriously, though, dear, I must stay at home. There is typhoid in the mill tenements—you ought to know “But your future?’ she urged. ‘‘All our hopes and plans?’ “You wouldn’t want me to run away from battle?’ he said lightly. “There grave as he came out into the night once more. “The fifth case!’ he murmured to him- , Belt.

He would have started up- }are nurses coming from the city tomor- row, and the doctor in the next town is going to help me. It’s going to be a fight—a hard fight; but. we will win, please God!

Jack was. for him, a little distrait, and as 1 passed him his coffee he said very quietly. «“Don't you think you were a little bard on me last night, dear?” "Oh, don’t talk about it,” I replied. “I’m disgusted. To think that you would lie there awake and let that fel- low take everything he wanted to, to say nething of your cowardly treatment of me.” “I told you, Sue, that the only reason did not try to do something was fear for YOU. Why, I didn’t even Gare touch you for fear you might move and attract his attention.

Where DID 1 get my extravagant ideas? We were “well-to-do people,” as they say at home, because father owned the house we lived in, and be- cause my mother, who was frail, kept a “hired girl.” But we never had much money for clothes or amusements, and until I came to New York,. or, more positively, until after I had °§ visited Jack’s sister in Boston, I had* been’ sat- isfied. Now my wants, my desires grew with amazing rapidity, fed by my love of the beautiful and by my determina- tion to be well gowned and popular. That Jack’s salary would not allow me to indulge my taste, my longing for these things was a constant grudge against him. I spent the remainder of the day after lunching with Neil and Gertie, in running around paying the trades- mer and others I owed. When it time for Jack to come home I had exhansted my strength and also the $200. I had just about $3-left. But for the first time in nearly four months I was out of debt. WHAT I should tell Jack about drawing the money and WHEN I should tell him,” I was too utterly worn out to con- sider. So I again let him put on the dinner and clear away afterward; while I lay on the couch with closed eyes, too tired to even think.

McCARDELL, All Is Ready for the Mili- tary Theater Party and Harold Dogstory Is Proud. T was the day of “Military Night” at that smashing musical suc- cess, “The Girl From the Cheese Factory.” The front of the the- ater was decorated with flags. The lobby was hung with them, and the stage box, in which Mr. and Mrs, Jarr were to sit with Capt. Herbert Tynne- foyle and his fiancee, ‘Miss Irene Cackleberry of Peoria, was draped with the national colors, without and within. : The company in the Resemary Grays commanded by Capt. Tynne- foyle were to have geats in the or- chestra, while (distributed. without the knowledge of Mrs. Jarr) the hun- dred tickets given to Gus, the popu- lar cafe proprietor, represented just sO many deadheads-to-be in the bal- cony. Mrs. Jarr ani Miss Cackleberry were in a state of excitement over their attire and appearance, and Ger- trude, the light-running domestic, and Margaret, the hairdresser from the beauty parlors around the corner, , had been in attendance on them all Such was the nervousness, excite- ment and confusion of the ladies, bordering on happy hysteria, that Mr. Jarr roamed the back part of the - flat an unnoticed outcast. The children had been sent over to the kindly and unruffled care of old Mrs. Dusenberry. Mrs. Jarr occasion- ally whimpered. She wondered if they were all right. But what is a husband at guch a time? | 7 Altogether it presaged a night of nights for that part of St. Louis. Tony, the bootblack, had so many demands for shines that he had to send for several of his cousins, also experts in the art of shoe blackery, to assist. “She demand for clean shirts and in « hurry had Wah Shing, the Chinese ' Iaundryman in the neighborhood, working with HIS cousins all day and all night for the past 48 hours. ‘High hats that had only been worn et weddings and funerals were brought out from their coverings, and Mr. Slavinsky’s original conception to “make ’em up-to-date” by shining them with stove polish had been readily fol- lowed in the households of Schmitt, the delicatessen dealer; Muller, the grocer, and Beppler, the butcher. Lena, Gus’ handsome wife, had got a dress for the occasion that Gus declared was grounds for a divorce. But it was to be worn, just the same. - Mrs. Muller, who hadn’t been to the ‘theater since the demise of the late Fr Emmett, got out a handso braided gown she had long put a ; MH j if 4 fy woman eres ; | Can You Beat ItP she irs 15 MRS Joun's LOAF oF BREAD RROPERUY LABELLED, Boss.

Albert, the street sweeper, had rent- ed a dress suit for the occasion and was wearing it all day under his white duck uniform. Occasionally, after the Street Department foreman had passed on his rounds of inspection, Albert stripped off his white uniform and did his work in full evening attire and a scariet cravat, to the great admiration of all the cooks and nursemaids in the neighborhood. Claude, the fireman, had a night off and, as he announced, was to be at the show “like a duck!” Seven o’clock and excitement at fever heat. Mrs. Jarr and Irene Cackleberry, still being attended by Gertrude, the light-running domestic, and Margaret, the hairdresser, were in states of vary- ing self-congratulation and despair. “How do I look, dear?’ they askei each other, but never answered ‘How does that skirt drape? Do the tiers hang right? Are you sure the ear-curis are proper for evening, Margaret?’ eagwhile Mr. Jarr was haunting the all and the other bedrooms try- ing to find: 1. His pleated dress shirt. le. His pumps. 3. His pearl studs. 4. The trousers to his dress suit. Other- wise he was dressed and ready. But he dared not approach Mrs. Jarr’s boudoir and ask a question. P It was a night of nights. Harold Dogatory, arrayed in what he called ‘“‘a boiled tripe shirt,” dinner jacket, a black and white striped dress waistcoat, his opera hat, and carrying the cane with the carved feminine limb of ivory on it, was already in the lobby | awaiting the guests. He looked at the flags proudly. “George Cohan, please write!” he mur- mured. .

A is commencin’ to get sensible P again. Leastwise she’s got part way there. She’s met a woman by the name of Mrs. Carring- ton Bruce who has gort of half recon- ciled her to soap. ’ Lord only knows how or where she met her, but she’s a real top notcher, Ma says, and has her pictures regular in the society supplements of the Sun- day papers. Her husband is in Wall street and is a stock broker. Accordin’ to Ma he’s a “risin’ power in the world of finance.”’ Ma ain’t said nothin’ to me about it. I heard her talkin’ to Clarice when they didn’t know I was in the next room. It seemed funny, for it’s usually been Clarice givin’ pointers to Ma. “Clarice,’’ I heard her sayin’, “Mrs. Bruce says society has changed. And you know Mrs. Bruce is in society. Her position is unquestioned. She goes everywhere. She says the husbands of all the real people work. Of course, they direct large affairs, like railroads and trusts and banks and huge busi- nesses. They do not occupy subordi- nate positions. But they make their money, and she says people don’t ask any more how you get your money. They only insist that you have it.” ‘But, mother,’ I heard Clarice put in, ‘they do not belong to the real aris- tocracy. It is merely the ‘dollar’ so- ciety. Anyone can belong to that if they have enough money and know how to show it off. The exclusive set, you know, owe their position to having been born into it. It is a matter of family. The older families’’—— ‘TI know,’ Ma put in. “Mrs. Bruce explained all that’to me. But she says the idle aristocracy is dyin’ because its money is nearly all spent and there’s no one with the gumption to get out and make more. Their little circle is narrowin’ and they are givin’ place to the others. Besides, you weren't born into one of those aristocratic old fam- ilies, so why chase something’ you can’t catch?” “But, mother,” says Clarice, “I might marry into one of them.”’ “That wouldn’t, make you one of them,” says Ma. ‘“*They’d always re- member who you were and. they wouldn’t let you forget it, either. attitude of Mrs. Van Der Loon shows you what to expect. If she let Perci- val marry you, it would be solely to get the money you would bring them. She wouldn’t accept you for what you are but for what you have.” ‘But Percival says he loves me,’’ says Clarice, ‘‘and that I would make him very happy.” “He loves you because you can pay his debts,’’ says Ma, ‘‘and that is also why you would make him happy.” Clarice didn’t say no more; but I could tell she didn’t accept Ma’s doc- trine. But Ma was right. There ain’t no use chasin’ a rabbit unless you've got four legs. There’s no use throwin’ soap after him. You might hit him and knock him over, but it wouldn't make him feel kindly toward the soap. I’m glad Ma is spunkin’ up. I'd like to meet this Mrs. Bruce and put a flea in her ear. If she can talk Ma into common sense on one subject maybe] she could switch her around on some other lines that need some missionary work.
