PRESIDEN T WILL BE SPECTATOR AT MEMORIAL SERVICE \ President Changes His Mind and Will Attend Memorial Day Exercises. 5 WASHINGTON, May 90.— President Wilson today changed his plans and de- cided to attend the Memorial Day ex- ercises at Arlington National Cemetery. Secretary Tumulty made a statement explaining that the President was not willing that his absence should be mis- construed.” In announcing. the Presidént’s -deci- invitation was extended by the com- mittee representing the Grand Army of the Republic of the District of Colum- bia the President informed the com- mittee that he did not think the oc- casion would be opportune for the de- livery of an appropriate address, and because of this he felt he must decline the invitation, agreeing, however, to attend the memorial services at a later date. “Evidently a false construction has been placed upon this action and there- in lies the reason for the change in the program. “The President was not willing that his absence should be misconstrued.” When it was finally announced a few days ago that the President could not accept the invitation of the G. A. R. to attend the services, managers of the memorial invited Speaker Champ Clark to make the principal address. The Speaker was at Atlantic City taking a rest, but changed his plans and las: night returned to Washington and be- gan preparing his address. Speaker Clark made a long address. Me declared Robert E. Lee deserved to rank with Sir Philip Sydney and King Arthur. The Speaker referred peace. 3. MONTHS - OLD BABY NEEDS 32000 A MONTH Father, a Navy Officer, Makes Application on Behalf of Heiress Daughter. | “NEW YORK, May 30.—Baby Lu- ‘cille _Spofford, who was born a little more than three with her aunt, Mrs. Ellen C. Creigh- ton at 14 East Sixty-third street, must have $2000 a month for her support, according to her father, Lieutenant-Commander Edward E. Spofford, U. S. N. The mother died the day Baby Spofford was born. The infant's grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth M. Stevens, died April 17. Together they left about $1,000,000 to the baby, mostly placed in trust funds until she becomes of age. Spofford asked Surrogate Fowler to allow Baby Spofford $2000 a month out of the estates of Mrs. Spofford and Mrs. Stevens, as he must return to his ship Monday. He gets $15,000 a year from his wife’s estate. Surrogate Fowler thought the ap- plication unusual, but said he would give it careful consideration.

DAWSON HURT, MAY. DIE Winner of 1912 Auto. Contest Pinned Under Car When He Tries to Dodge Wreck. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 90. —-TWo serious accidents, in which Dawson, winner of. the 1912 race, was possibly mortally injured and three others se- riously hurt, took place in the 500-mile annual automobile race here today. the 300-mile mark. At the half-way distance Bolllot was pressing Wishard for the lead, with Christaens trailing in third posi- ticn. Teh time then was 3:00:568:45, seven minutes ahead of the records for that distance. The crowd was the largest that has ever atended the annual event and was announced as being more than 100,000. The day was ideal, a good breeze Swept across the course and offset, to some extent, the efefcts of a boiling sun. Many of the cars were forced out of the race b yengine trouble, among them being the one driven by Ander- son, who was picked to finish well up in teh money. Goux, who won last year, was run- ning in seventh place at noon, due largely to the fact that he had had to stop frequently for tires. Dawson was injured at the scene of an accident which had occurred to Gil- hooley only a few minutes before. He tried to turn his car to ayoid running into the wreck of Gilhooley's machine tur tie He was pinned under it. It at first Was reported that his back had been broken. Physicianb later denied this. His mechanician was slightly hurt. Gil- hooley and his mechanician both wére seriously injured. Dawson, winner of the 1912 race, Was probably fatally injured when his car, 26, turned over and pinned him and his mechaniciah under it. Both were taken to the field hospital and it was stated Dawson's back was broken, but this was later denied by physicians at the hospital. The mechanician was not so badly hurt. Dawson's machine was overturned when he tried to avoid Gilhooley's wrecked car. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 30.—Thirty cars, representing six nations—United State, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Belgium-—battled for cham- pionship prizes totalling $50,000 at. the In- dianapolis motor speedway today in the fourth annual 500-mile automobile race. The ‘attendance, which last year was more than 91,000, was expected to enen 100, 000 todd@y. Thousands of race enthusiasts were on their way to the speedway long before the gates were opened at 6 o' clock, and the crowds continued to arrive until after the race started at 10 o' clock. The early morning was clear and much cooler than for several days. A shower last night cooled the air and the bricks of the 2%-mile track and means greater speed by eliminating heat danger to tires and men. The. weather man said there might be a féw thundershowers during the day. While the French drivers are favored in the betting,.a number of American pilots, just before the race started, ex- pressed their determination to wrest the honors which Jules Goux won last year for France. In the elimination trials the foreign cars showed more speed, but the Amer- icans are depending on the durability of their machines to offset the high speed in the long grind. Originally 4 racers were entered, but 15 of these were either: disqualified in the speed trials or withdrew as the speedway management would permit only the % fastest to start. The cars lined up in eight rows before the judges and got away at the firing of Continued om Page 2, Columa 4 The Friday Record We will use just a few lines of space today to record the columns of local merchants’ advertising carried by the St. Louis papers on Friday of this week: POST-DISPATCH alone...80 columns 2 morning papers combined — rr columns evening papers combined ..............66 columns We always have to add several other city papers together to make a comparison with St. Louis’ ONE BIG newspaper. “Average circulation for April: ous (except Gendsy).-.. 187.001 Sun * only cesar „4,0 1 2 — Tiest in tigte e sap 2 Three foreign cars were in the lead at ö Dieckman Indianans Who Are Believed to Have Been * Among Those Who Died on Empress of Ireland Badly “Frightened When He Opens Box Express- ed to Him at Office. | 1 The deep, dark mystery surrounding the delivery of a huge alligator to George Dieckman at his Fourth street office Friday was cleared up Saturday when Mrs. Louis Heinfelden of Belle- ville confes8ed that she had expressed the saurian to St. Louis as a pitt to the Zoo. Dieckman was. badly trightemell when he opened the box and found himself looking into the open jaws of the mons- ter. As quickly as possible he had the alligator transferred to the 200. Mrs. Heinfelden gave a reporter the history of the alligator, and explained why she wished to get rid of nim. Six teen years ago, when the alligator was a little fellow only eight inches long, he was caught in Florida by @ Spanish war soldier, and was sent to Cust Hen- felder, her son, as a gift.

Indeed, everything indicates that hundreds of those on the steamer probably never reached the decks. Very few women were among the saved, not more than 22, the lists make it appear.

It appears that it was misty, but not actually foggy. when the crash oc- eurred. ‘The Empress had passed Ri- mouski at 10:30 a. m. and was on her course. Capt.

As soon as President Lazarus in the Council and Speaker Gassolo in the House of Delegates had affixed their signatures late Friday afterroon Mayor Kiel was notified by telephone in St. Louis County and motored to the city hall to sign the document. Chairman Drabelle of the Election Board said Saturday preparations were being made for the special registration June 16, at which more than 30,000 electofts who would have been ineligible will have an opportunity“ to register correctly and cast votes at the charter election and the State primaries on Aug. 4. . The registration and election will be conducted in the 474 precincts of the city, just ds a general election or reg- istratiön. The activity of all partisan factions in getting voters to register for the primaries, at which numerous hard fights are in prospect, is expected to materially ald the Freeholders’ Board in giving St. Louis a new organic law. It is the general opinion that the larger the vote on the charter, the greater in proportion will be the favor- able vote. Apathy upon the part of the voting public is regarded as the greatest source of danger to the new charter. TWO BROTHERS ARE KILLED BY A LIVE WIRE CHICAGO, May %30.—Hugh and August C.

Oldfield had trouble with his car when it was brought out to be lined up and it was anfiounced that oil had been poured in the engine. He managed to get it in working order in time to make the start. Ralph de Palma, who withdrew his car yesterday and announced his in- tention to leave for New York, decided to remain as a spectator. Chassagne’s car, 12, overturned on the northeast turn and his mechani- cian, S. Morris, was knocked uncon- scious, but not fatally hurt.

As a memorial to his father, August A. Busch has purchased one-half block of ground on the west side of Twelfth street, between Market and Chestnut streets, on which he plans to erect a 16-story hotel to be known as The Adolphus,“ according to real estate deal- ers who sold him the property. The cost of the hotel has been esti- mated at $2,500,000 and probably will be constructed on the plans of the new Adolphus siotel recently erected in Dal- las by the Busches. The hotel will face City Hall Park on the south, and Twelfth street on the east, and will be one of the finest hotels west of New York if the plans of August A. Busch are carried out. Edward A. Faust, vice-president of the Anheuser-Busch brewery, confirmed the fact that Busch has bought the property, but said he did not know what to do with it. Busch could not be reached Saturday.

Pageant’s Appeal Proved: 50, O00 Defy Rain to See Play —ͤ —V—— Continued From Page One, manitous who have ruled the storm since the beginning of time, made the Human voices on the stage sound like puny whisperings during the greater part of the porformance. Only the great crowd was silent. It is not chargeable with any ot the noise which destroyed the usually fine acous- tics of the Pageant stage. The cloud manitous had been called upon and they had answered. They were letting fall the’ sweet rain! that the corn may grow green in our fields. Long may the roasting ears wave! Could Forego Rain’s Boon, Probably most of those in that rain- soaked audience were lovers of corn on the cob and would like to see it plentiful and cheap. Certainly many in the gathering were tillers of the soil, who in the fields of Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas and in Illinois, Indi- ana and Ohlo had crops of growing corn, which needed ‘‘sweet rain.“ Yet they would have foregone the boon of that rain and would have transferred thelr allegiance nev and forever to cern in the can could they have seen the Pageant and Masque go forward to its gorgeous finish, Thomas Wood Stevens, writer of the Pageant book, despite his tactical mis- take of calling on the cloud manitous for that sweet rain, ought to be @ happy man today.

The spirit of the actors was equally as fine as that of the spectators, and in the opinion of many the spirit of the Pageant management in stopping the show when it os was the finest thing of all, Within five minutes after the post- ponement was announced the rain ceased and the skies cleared. It was admitted by the Pageant, managers that if the postponement had been deferred a few minutes, the performance might have been carried on to its conclusion. But in that case the thousands in the amphitheater would have been com- pelled to remain in the rapidly cooling night air with their garments rain- soaked and with no opportunity to stand or move about. The manage- ment believed that in the euges at. least of many women and,children, iliness would have resulted from such expo- sure. It was mainly for this reason that the performance was postponed at a time when the storm was abating. 4000 IN PARK AT — P. M.

A wonder- ful rescue was one of these—little & year-old Gracie Hanagan, daughter of the leader of the Salvation band. Her father and mother were both drowned. Gracie was not told of her loss, and believed today that her father and mother would come to Quebec on the next boat. When asked how she was saved, Gra- cie repeated Oh! I saved myself. The little child was entirely unconcerned, apparently not realizing what she had been through. No lifeboat was near when she was thrown from the Em- press, and she sank at once, but rose to the surface in a moment, saw a piece of floating wood near her and seized it. Later she was pulled into a lifeboat. She had been benumbed to the point of exhaustion by the cold water, but kindly hands worked skillfully to revive her, and she soon was entirely re- stored. Helen O'Hara of Toronto, a child of 10, whose father was drowned when trying to save her, told a pathetic story. “My papa awakened mamma and brought me up on deck.’ When the ship began to sink he took me under one arm and jumped into the water with me. He then began to swim with me and placed me on a piece of wood. I did not see my papa after that. 1 awam with the piece of wood and soon I came to a boat and was taken in.“ Salvation Army Man Saved. Maj. Attwell of Toronto and his wife were among the saved. “I got a life belt for my wife,“ said Maj. Attwell, and we both jumped into the water together when we saw that the vessel was doomed to go down. We both sank three times, being carried under by the suction of the foundering belts and try to keep cool.“ ‘people were so frightened never left their berths.

I was in the water half an hour and it was bit- ter cold. “The freight steamer lifted a number 97 The freight steamer lifted a number of men and women out of the water and many of them were badly cut on the head and face. One man had a broken leg, but he was saved. “The doctor of the Empress worked harder than anybody else and he seemed to be everywhere at once, attending to the wounds of those who appeared to be dying.“ Two Girls Are the Only Children Who Are Known to Have Survived there were very few persons to be seen. In fact, the peoples on the deck were so few that they were hardly noticeable. „The reason for this is that when the beat had listed to one side, the stairs from the sleeping apartments up to the boat decks were very difficult, almost impossible to mount. I did not see the hele in the side of our ship as I rushed for the stairs, but I did see the water pouring in in such volume that it threat- ened to drown us before we could mount the stairs.“ X. A. McIntyre was in the second ch bin with most of the other Salvation Army passengers. He told a vivid storv of his own experiences, and of what he! saw as he swam to safety. | “Virtually every leading efficer of the Salvation Army in Canada is gone,’’ ho ssd. Commissioner Rees and his wife and the children went down, and only three of his family survice. Out of our Salvation party of 150 on board, . bly less than 2 were rescued. “I was on the upper deck, and, there- fcre, had a better chance to get to safe- ty than those in the lower berths. The water came in through the port holes of the lower decks, before the e_passengers le, there realized their danger, or that there was danger at all. I was aroused ‘from my sleep by the impact and awakened the others in my cabin. I could then hear plainly the rush of water and 1 felt sure that something serious had happened. I also heard the machinery of the boat running. It did not stop immediately after the crash, but nn until the explosion occurred. I grabbed a life preserver and went out to the deck. On deck there were no life belts and quite a number of people were standing about apparently unable to determine what to do. I gave my belt to Mrs. Foord, one of our party. I tied the belt on her myself. into a lifeboat of collier standing not i: Empress foundered. She was all light- ed up. Many Had Little Clothing. “When I was taken on board I saw many men rescued, practically un- clothed. I was almost in a state of nakedness myself and the rest of those on board were shivering and in a bad state from the icy water of the river and the chilly morning air. Soon, how- ever, We were attended to by those on board the collier and made warm and comfortable. Explosion and Burst of Steam, Then Quick Listing of Vessel “As I swam through the icy waters I heard the dull explosion caused by the water reaching the engines of the sink- ing ship. It was followed by a burst of steam that spread to all parts of the vessel. Then came a quick lisfing of the steamer and she turned over. It looked to me as if she turned turtle. J don't think there were many first- class passengers saved. I saw only one of the first-class boats lowered. “The weather was virtually calm ind there was plenty of light on the water when I came on deck. I saw no fog. I thought at first we had hit a rock. Some of the officers of the vessel came along and said that the ship would not go down any further, for bottom had been struck. “The behavior of the crew was on the whole good, although it must be said that the men hardly had time to collect themselves or to effect rescues in any systematic way. The boat was really sinking before the crew or anybody else realized it. “Those of the crew who got to the deck tried to launch a boat on the up- turned side of the vessel but the boat could not be put into the water. “The decks were almost perpendic- ular so that many passengers, in order to escape, had to slide down from the higher side to the water side.“ Woman Rescued, Falls Dead. A woman leaped pluckily from the deck of the sinking liner and swam around for nearly an hour in the river, but fell dead from exhaustion on the deck of the pilot boat Eureka. She had on little clothing and has not been identified. The noise of the water rushing into his cabin awakened W. Davis of Toron- to and his wife. They fled up on the deck, but in the rush of passengers became separated. Davis was saved, but it is feared his wife went down with the boat. A touching reunion was witnessed at timouski when Mr. and Mrs. Thomas EI Greenaway of the Toronto Salvation Army, who were married about a week ago, were reunited after each had be- lieved the other lost. “Tl was awakened by the crash,” said Mrs. Greenaway, but I was not nervous until I heard a steward ordering the rassengers to go up on deck. There was a great rush from the cabins, in which I joined, and in the excitement, I clung to a man who I thought was my husband. As we reached the deck the ship was down on one side, so that we chuld have walked on the other side to the water’s edge. Companion Not Her Husband, “Suddenly, on looking at my compan- ion, I discovered that he was not my husband, so I set out to look for him among those who were crowding the side of the ship. By that time the ship was nearly under water. When the final lurch came I gave myself up as lost. I went down with the ship but an explosion occurred, and I was tossed uc. out of the water, bruised and hurt Dy pieces of wood. „T then became unconscious. When I recovered my senses, I found myseif floating about on a deck chair. I lay there too weak to move, but, hearing veces close by, I managed to raise my read, and saw a raft with two men on it One of them reached out to me with a broken. oar, and called out, ‘Are you alive?’ I answered as loud as I could, and he pulled me aboard with the oar.” Goes to Get a Wrap for Wife and Husband Becomes Lost From Her Greenaway told his story as follows: “I was awakened by the crash and got out of my berth at the request of my wife, not thinking, however, that there was anything seriously wrong. My wife noticed the list of the ship and suggested that we should go up on deck. She left immediately, thinking I would follow her. This was my inten- tion, but before I left the cabin 1 searched for a wrap for my wife. Then I went up to the deck and searched for Mrs. Greenaway, but could find no trace of her and gave her up as lost. Catches Floating Table. “When the last plunge came I clung to the side of the rail, but the force of the churning water and the explosion of the boilers broke my grasp and I sank. When I came to the surface 1 saw the top of a round table floating near me. This 1 grasped and it kept me afloat until I was dragged on a raft. Later, with a dozen others, I was taken on board the pilet boat and landed at Rimouski, where hospitable residents gave me every care and attention. On the pilot boat with me was Capt. Spooner of the Salvation Army staff. He told me he had put a life belt on my wife. On the arrival of the second boat I learned that my wife had been res- cued and was in a hotel in the village. When finally I found her she was still unaware of my rescue and when she saw me she burst into tears, being too weak from her terrible experience to say anything.“ One of the most self-possessed pas- sengers among those rescued was Mrs. W. E. Patton of Sherbrooke. Mrs. Pat- ton was rescued in a lifeboat and did not get the least bit wet. She was re- markably cool and gave valuable as- sistance to sufferers. Members of the crew of the Empress said a majority of those saved had to swim. All that was possible was done to lower boats, but the strong list of the ship made it impossible to lower more than five boats, they said. J. Fergus Duncan, an advocate, of London, England, who has been in Can- ada on business, told of how the first boat lowered upset and those who had crowded into it were plunged headlong into the water. Passengers Shot Into Water. “My berth was on the starboard side, said Duncan. “I heard the whis- tles and fog horns, as well as the re- versing of the engines. Then came the crash. I went out on the deck. It was empty. Looking over the side, I saw the collier moving away. A boat was lowered from the bridge, but one of the davits worked more quickly than the other and the living cargo was shot into the water. I hurried back to my cabin and as the ship took a 3 Ust —— — — — — — — ag, eren, — — + om IN THE FACE Make Women Look Old and they show the effect of suffering—of headaches, backaches, dizziness, hot flashes, pains in lower limbs and pains in groins. indicate that Nature needs help.

As the ship tilted heav- ily, I could not stand tp on the deck any longer and had to climb up onto the railing. It was awful to see those poor women who had not strength 20 keep their hold on the failing as they Were hurled back against the cabin. What became of them I don’t know. As the ship prepared for the final plunge, I slid down the plates of her side into the sea. As I reached the water the steam came bursting out of the side of the ship, causing a great commotion. When the last plunge came, I was sucked under, and, coming to the sur- face, I saw no boat around, so I strucx out for the other ship. One of the liner’s lifeboats came by, so I cluny to the ropes and eventually got into the small vessel, exhausted and nearly frozen. We were taken on board the Storstad and placed in the engine room. Some Rescued Raving Mad. ‘Some of the survivors were raving mad from the shock and hardships and the terrible scenes. Assistant Purser Hays says Capt. Ken dall bade him good-by on the bridge as the water was lapping their feet. The Captain had a life preserver, but handed it over to a passenger. Hayes and the Captain jumped together and Hayes was picked up by a lifeboat. Thirty minutes later and after the ship had foundered Capt.

Kendall himself took the oars and was indefatigable in his exertions, Clayton Burt of a Toronto motor com- pany safd he slid down to the water's edgs, and then an explosion occurred. “As the ship made the final lurch, I plunged into the water and the suc- tion of the sinking vessel pulled me down to a great depth. When I came to the surface I started to swim and a young lady, whom 1 afterwards learned was Miss Thompson of New Zealand, swam up alongside of me and asked me to help her. I caught a pass- ing suit case, which was floating about, and by means of this, on which we both held, we kept afloat.” = See DEEMS, the Letter Man, For Facsimilie Letters, etc. 720 Olive st.

FINANCING THE WAGE EARNER’S FAMILY. S the American worker receiving | enough pay for his labor to enable nis family to maintain itself with a certain degree of physical efficiency? It is this question that Prof. Scoit Nearing is trying to answer in his val- uable contribution to the literature, of social thought, Financing the Wage Earner’s Family.“ In the first place, the author says that the great bulk of the American people have to work in ordinary posi- tions: with very few chances for ad- Vancement. He then proceeds to find out what the chances of the American worker are from the point of view of his livelibood. The findings of the investigations in- dicate that north of Mason and Dixon’s line and east of the Rockies one-tenth of the workers earn annually less than $325, one-fifth less than $400, one-half under $600, three-fourths less than $600 and one-tenth over $800. Investigations show also that a fam- ily of five in industrial towns east of the Mississippi Valley cannot maintain a decent standard of living on less than $650 a year. In the same area the male workers receive an average wage of less than $500 a year. At least half of them are in that class. This means that the workers receive for their work less than it takes to maintain them and their families in physical comfort. The above is but part of the problein of the wage edrner. The author shows actual budgets of families, from which it appears that in some industries the workers are not paid enough to buy a ‘sufficient amount of nourishing food for themselves and family, nor can they purchase proper clothes and shelter on their earnings. these facts because he feels that they The author points out should be brought to the attention of the country. He pleads for further and careful investigation.

The “hero” is Frank Algernon Cow: perwood. He not only tries to grab everything in sight in the way of pub- lic service utilities, but every woman or girl who comes his way, from his poor stenographer to the wife of his financial bacKer and friend, must yield to his passion. He does not even spare the daughters of his personal friends. He is shameless in his numerous “af- fairs.“ He maintains two or three at a time, and neglects the poor woman who had sacrificed her innocence and her family to become his mistress and finally his wife—the woman who was loyal to him when he was a felon and a convict. A nasty individual, domi- nating and domineering, the sort of in- dividual who can play an important public part only in an anarchic state of society like the capitalistic state, such is Cowperwood, The author of “The Titan’ expects the reader to go through 552 pages of such offensive stuff, with here and there a bit of “relief” in the way of political corruption and financial rock - edness. In the end the shameless in- diyidual who is financially so success- ful succeeds in degrading a girl young enough to be his granddaughter. Through all this the author seems amazingly forgiving. He intimates that to do otherwise is to be narrow and dogmatic. “The Titan’’ is a most dangerous piece of literary work. It is worse than merely a pornographic story. Such sto- ries generally do not reach decent folk and decent homes. This story, likely to be a dest seller“ because of its au- thor’s fame, will get into the hands of young persons who especially should not read such filth. It is particularly dangerous because the supposedly re- spectable young girls of its story give themselves to men as indifferently as if it were the most casual thing for girls to do. One can forgive the portrayal of a woman forgetting all convention when real, deep, overmastering love calls. “BETTER BABIES.” + OTHERHOOD is a profession. We =|M are beginning to realize this fact. We are turning. our. at- tention’ to the essential values in the perpetuation of the human race. We not only strive for continuation, but for a more perfect race physically, as well as mentally and morally. The mother is coming into her own as a prime fac- tor in the realization of a better hu- manity. Pensions are being granted to mothers robbed of their husband’s sup- port, so that the influence of a homa and a mother may not be lost. The value of an intelligent motherhood is being emphasized by writers on the subject. For, if motherhood is to be raised to the level of a profession; we must have training for this as well as for any other profession. 15277 This plea for an enlightened parent- hood is the subject of “Better Babies and Their Care,“ by Anna Steese Ricb- ardson. In this book Mrs. Richardson shows why and how the well baby is well. She ascribes it to the intelligence of the parents, especialfy the mother, who has the actual physical@tare of the child in her hands. She brings to the attention of the reader certain scien- tific facts which are calculated to help in the physical development of children. There are plenty of practical hints to mothers concerning the care of the sick child as well as the conservation of the health of the well baby. This little book is an excellent addition to the book shelves of the average home. It is writ- ten in a delightfully simple and instruc- tive manner and should be a welcome gift to motherhood. (Stokes Co.) MUSCLE-BOUND BRAINS, ATRICK M’GILL, an Irish author, P tells in autobiographic style a story of the fe of a day who starts from an Irish as a boy and after work- farms goes to Scot- laborer village ing on various land and becomes a navvy, or rail- road laborer. The title, “Children of the Dead End.“ is not fully explained by the narrative, though one gathers that the dead end” is the end of a railroad in process of building—anything but dead, however, as it is continually eg forward and is at all times a focus of intense activity. It may be that the author in the title “Dead End” « es the field of la bor in which the characters in his bock worked. They were certainly dead, in- tellectually, socially and spiritually. Their brains were muscle-bound, so to speak. And while their lot was un- doubtedly hard, they made it hideous by all kinds of excesses, particularly drinking, fighting and gambling. It is a gloomy picture, and while the author justly indicts society for much of the misery he describes,’ the reader will feel t the victims themselves seem to have done all they could to sink themselves veding into the pit of despair. (Dut- i facts are known, Prof. Nearing is con- vinced that remedies will be called for and will be found. Those interested in the welfare of the workers, without whom no country can survive or prosper, may agree thar something should be done to remedy conditions. If fully half of the work- ers of America are receiving less than $600. a year for their work and that t Jeosts more than that to live in decency, we must feel thankful to Prof. Nearing for having collected the facts and for having brought thém to our attention in a lucid manner. (Huebsch.) ELINOR GLYN IN A NEW ROLE. LINOR GLYN has suspended tem- porarily her usual task of dishing out literary “hot stuff to her readers and, in Tour Affectionate God- mother,“ we find her taking up the role of a sort of mother confessor to young girls about to enter society. It is really quite a nice book, the adjective being applicable in any of its meanings. It is composed of a series of letters, purporting to have been written to a favorite god-child and they cover almost every phase of life that a debutante is likely to encounter. The godmother ad- monishes her how to handle all the personal problems that are almost cer- tain to arise for solution and advises her on her personal conduct at home, on the street and in the drawing room, upon personal habits, dress, religion, matrimony and other things which a girl should know. Mrs. Glyn has not faltered in telling truths, ewen obvious ones, but she does it in a way that never becomes unpleas- ant and offensive to the reader. Middle- aged women as well as debutantes may read this little book with some profit. (Appleton.) ‘ “EUROPE AFTER DARK.” HREE clever men, H. L. Mencken, 1 George J. Nathan and Willard H. Wright, got together and wrote this book, telling about Vienna, Mun- ich, Berlin, London and Paris, after 8:15 p. m. They manage to get plenty of wickedness into the book without be- coming vulgar. But, being tourists, they seem to know that quite a num- ber of Americans in going abroad are looking for that sort of thing. Such folks will read the book with a great deal of interest. The cleverest part of the book is the preface, in which two Americans meet abroad and, instead of taking in the most beautiful scenery, are talking about the “eats’’ on the boats or in hotels. They miss their American com- forts and American dishes. A truly clever book to rouse the imagination of clever folk who are pleasure bound when going abroad—but not a wicked book, providing you know how to read it and understand that the authors are laughing in their sleeves all the time—laughing at the Philistines. (John Lane.) SHORT PLAYS. ARY MACMILLAN has made V quite a contribution with her volume of Short Plays.“ These plays lend themselves for presentation in connéction with amateur theatricals. They were written for such purpose, and the author gives permission that they be used in that way. Rather un- usual for authors these days of strict copyright protection. The playlets are really clever. They can be chosen for any occasion. The Arat in the book, The Shadowed Star,” is in the style of the Irish dramatists of the Yeats: School. by two very sweet little plays, rather quaint but exceptionally good. The oth- ers are clever and original. (Stewart This is followed But most of those who give themselves in this story do not seem to know what love really 18. The character around whom the story is built know not of love. He is mastered by lust and has no regrets for his misdeeds. A veritable monster in human form, who corrupts and degrades all with whom he comes in contact is this Titan,“ whom Dret ser pictures with apparent admiration. It is this that makes the book. dan- gerous. -It sets forth false standards to the young men in whose hands it may fall. The casual way In which women and girls practice their immo- ralities will poison the minds of girls reading the book. The manner, too, in which poor Aileen, the unfortunate sec- ond wife of Cowperwood, misconducts herself with other men to “get even“ with her faithless husband, is a nasty piece of work. The whole thing is nasty. If by freeing ourselves from drab puritanism we can do no better than Dreiser does in The Titan,” it were best that we go back. Dreiser is no Sudermann. Sudermann’s people know that they sin, if they are sinners. Dreiser’s do not know it. He is doing damage by his work. Of course the book is interesting. Such books general ly are. But we could do without it. (John Lane.) _ GLORY or TH THE PINE N “Glery of the ines“ William Chalmers Covert has told the tale of the loves and hates, depravity and nobility of life among the lumber- jacks of Lake Superior’s shore. The nuthor was once dominie of a parish in the north woods, with lumber-jacks as a considerable element of his congregation. He tells in a simple, straightforward way the things that happened under his observation in a region w4ere passions are strong and men are rough. Convinc- ing reality compensates for any lack of technical ekill that may be discovered in the pages. The Glory who gives the title to the book is in unfortunate young woman of the woods who is reclaimed. The hero of the tale, likewise rather unconven- tional, is a lumber town saloonkeeper who reforms and turns his saloon into a community house as an auxiliary to the little white church of which the author was the pastor. The social] pro- blems of the community are solved in a practical way by the minister and his strange allies. The story has some of the flavor of Ralph Connor’s fiction. but takes the form, in the main, of autobiography. There is a romance which culiminates to the Uking of ths reader. The book is illustrated by Gertrude A. Kay. (Westminster Press.)) “THE EFFICIENCY MAN.” HOMAS D. WEST, in a helpful lit- 1 tie book, The Efficiency Man,“ tells of methods of bécoming effi- cient. Of- course, the man who is effi- cient is socially more useful than the one who lacks efficiency. Being more useful socially, he is more useful to himself and his family. Te be “an effi- clency man“ one must be @ person of clean habits, first of all. Only jn this way can one attain efficiency, accord - ing to the author. Being a man of af- fairs who has risen from the ranks and who has had to handle men, he ought to know. But of course there is some- thing to be said as to environment and social conditions which may assist or prevent a man's becoming an “efficiency man.” (Gardner Printing Co.)

ESCENDANTS SEE PRESENTED TO CITY Louis Unveiled by Pierre Chouteau in City Hall Park. The statue of Pierre Laclede in City Hall Square, presented to the city by the Centennial Association, was un- veiled by Pierre Chouteau, great great- grandson of the founder of St. Louis, at ll a. m. Saturday. . Three generations of Laclede's de- scendants were guests of the Centennial Association at the unveiling. They rep- resented the fifth, sixth and seventh generations of the Chouteau-Laclede families. Young Chouteau, 16 years old, son of Mr. and Mrs. Pierre Chouteau of 5579 Clemens avenue, pulled the cord to un- veil the statue after speeches had been made by George D. Markham, Mayor Kiel and former Judge Daniel G. Tay- lor. Then a band played the Marseil- laine. : The unveiling was witnessed by 4 large crowd which had assembled in City Hall Square. There was prolonged cheering when the drapery was pulled away from the heroic bronze figure of the French adventurer who founded the city here 150 years ago today. George Julian Zolnay, the sculptor, who made the Laclede statue, occupied a seat in the box with Mayor Kiel and other officials. Mrs. Virginia Sarpy Peugnet, oldest descendant of Laclede, was the guest of honor for the occasion. All descendants of Laclede were asked to stand up after the unveiling, and fully 300 complied with the request, many of them old men and women. A delegation of Grand Army women, j who had decorated the Grant statue in the south end of City Hall Square, at- tended the unveiling. Mayor Kiel, in his address, said the location was a fitting one, being be- tween the halls of justice and legisla- tion. He also made a plea that statues of other pioneers, such as Marquette, La Salle. De Soto, Clark and Lewis be erected. During the week Theophile Papin Jr., a lineal descendant of Laclede, mailed out 664 invitations for the unveiling. Of these 178 were sent to heads of the fam- ily Uving in St. Louis. In the fourth and fifth generations there were 1500 de- scendants of this family, Five authentic printed charts, showing the génealogy of the Laclede family were used by Papin in tracing. descend- ants of. the different branches headed by Auguste Chouteau, Pierre Laclede, Charles Gratiot, Sylvester Labadie and Joseph Marie Papin, which represent the children of the first generation, born to Marie Therese Bourgeols in her two marriakes, first to Auguste Chouteau and then to 3 425 L 8 ae oo : kt f LAGLEDE'S STATUE : Trelk« 1 STATUE OF LACLEDE BY ZOLNAY.

As to withdrawing our troops, every- one believés such a step would be im- possible. Not only would it be death to what little prestige we still may possess, but it would be death to any white people remaining in the country. This is the opinion of an American who bas for the last three years traveled all over Mexico. He is a well-known offi- cial of our Government, so well known to your readers that I cannot give his name, but he believes that without the menace of our troops, Mexico will nev- er carry out any conditions of the A B C findings except those that meet with her approval. Already Mexicans, not only in the cap- ital, but even here in Vera Crus, be- lieve the reason our troops do not ad- vance is because we are afraid. It now we withdraw altogether, having administered no punishment, demanded no reparation, our visit, as it will be represented to Mexicans and as it will be interpreted by them, will be for us a bluff that failed and for them an- other glorious victory. ‘ All we have done in Vera Cruz to punish the Mexicans is to clean their city. That does not impress them. For 300 years they have lived amid filth and flies. They are used to dirt.

Weber above II ICA ENVOYS EXPECTED 10 AID REBELS INTERESTS Carranza’s Messenger Discusses Constitutionalists’ Attitude With Lehmann. HITCH IN DELIBERATIONS Question of Admitting Carranza- istas to Mediation Confer- ence to Be Decided. By Associated Press. NIAGARA FALLS, Ont, May %.— Juan F. Urquidi called on the American delegates this forenoon and discussed with Mr. Lehmann the Constitutional- ists’ attitude toward mediation. Ths inference drawn is that the American delegates will champion the cause of the Constitutionalists until it has been decided whether the Carranza faction will have a personal representative here during the continuance of the nego- tiations. The mediators themselves conferred at some length in respect to the character of the answer to be made to Gen. Car- ranza’s communication. They were in- clined toward a mere acknowledgment, but the indications are that the wish of the Washington Government will pre- vail that full consideration be given the Constitutionalists. If so the negotia- tions will be prolonged. Should satisfactory arrangements be made whereby Gen. Carranza may be willing to send delegates on terms satis- factory to the mediators, it is possible the conference might continue for two or three weeks more. The Huerta delegates know only un- officially of the presence here of Ur- quidi, but they expected today to be formally advised of the nature of the communication he brought. On the sub- ject of Constitutionalist representation, the Huerta delegates have decided they will abide by any decision the media- tors may make. The view of the American delegates is that it would be far more satisfactory to deal with the various factions before any agreement or protocol is signed than to attempt later to bring a third party. the Gonstitutionalists, to accord with the two-party agreement now be- ing prepared. Some of the hitherto unpublished de- tails of the tentative plan now before the mediators are as follows: The providional government which would succeed the Huerta regime, con- sisting of a provisional President and four Cabinet members, would hold of- fice until 1916, when the term of Ma- dero expires and a regular presidentia! election takes place. The object of this is to give the new administration a year or more in which to pacify the country absolutely, prepare it for a popular elee- tion and make a beginning on land and educational reforms. Though some of the delegates on both sides would have preferred five persons, all neutral in politics, to compose the new Government, the tentative plan now is to have two Constitutionalists and two men, not identified with the Huerta administration, but chosen by the Huer- ta delegates, for the four Cabinet port- folios, with a neutral provisional Presi- dent. „ Carranza Must Declare Truce to Have Envoy at Mediation, Is Report, WASHINGTON, May #.—Administra- tion chiefs today awaited with interest GOOD NEWS Many St. Louis Readers Have Heard It and Profited Thereby. „Good news travels fast, and the bad back sufferers in St. Louis are glad to learn where relief may be found.

The battleships Idaho and Mississippi, which Secretary Daniels proposes shall be-sold to a Eu- ropean power, presumably Greece, are sister ves- gels of 13,000 tons, the former costing $5,558,781 and the latter $5,629,183. Each has four 12-inch and eight eight-inch guns, besides secondary bat- tery. Both were built in 1904, and while the ships we have been authorizing lately are two and one-half times as large, they cou own against anything likely to de sent against them in the Eastern Mediterrean. The. terms specified are that..we shall receive “cost price” for the vessels. If, win means that we are to get back all we put in Uncle Sam, whose fondness for a bargain is well known, should not hesitate about closing the deal. If, every year, we could sell on the same terms two small 10-year-old ships and use the money to build one big new dreadnaught, it would help amazingly in executing the two-battleship pro- gram. . * THE HOME-RULE LAST DITCHERS. To override the Lords’ veto on its third passage, the home rule bill had to go through the House in a form practically identical with that on its first passage. Concessiong to Ulster could not be incorporated except under an agreement that the upper house should give the bill as a whole its assent. The Conservatives having refused to enter into such an agreement, changes that would jeopardize the measure’s enactment and compel another wait for two years became impossible. The~local option privilege of an exemption for six years will now be extended Ulster counties in a separate bill. To pass it, the Lords will have all compromise. If they kill it, they only sig- nify that they are unwilling to grant Uleter ex- emptiong the Liberal and Irish members are win- ing to grant. The ministry, accordingly, occupies an ad- mirable parliamentary position. In the event that the local option bill is rejected by the last-diteh · ers, it could be passed under the suspensory veto act after two years. But no reason exists why the ministry should take all that trouble with a bill that only serves the comfort of its enemies. = = n THE ABSUED SOUP HOUSE ISSUB.

THE CHARTER Arran. 3 pee. The first of the series of articles comparing | i the old and new charters and explaining the vital points of the latter, by Col. Frederick D. Gardner, will appear on the editorial page of tomorrow's Sunday Post-Dispatch. The series will be continued every other day until the en- tire charter has been reviewed and explained. Not one of these articles should be missed by citizens of St. Louis, young and old. Every voter, especially, should read them carefully 5° that he may be fully informed’ on all the pro- visions of the new charter and its merits as compared with the present charter. There should be a full vote on the charter. It should record the intelligent judgment of the voters. NEW — PROSPERITY. : President James A. Farrell of the Steel Trust has returned from Durope with predictions of bet- ter business. There are indications, he says, “that business throughout the world is gradual- ly emerging from an unsatisfactory condition to one in which commercial confidence is being re- established.” That the Democratic administration has caused a slackening in activity in this country must be true, for Republican gatherings held in various states this spring tell us so. But how can the “opening of our markets to the products of fli- paid labor abroad” have caused a slackening in foreign countries also? Those countries, fatten- ing off the opportunities Democracy has given them here, ought to be prosperous. No existing conditions approximate the disas- trous panic of Rooseveltism and high protection in 1907. The,calamity issue, to which, we take it, Mr. Roosevelt will give no support, lacks enough strength of fiber to last even until the November election. A revival in business and big crops will reduce it to the emaciated vitality of the judicial recall issue of the funny Bull Moosers. = = R HYSTERIA VS. BRUTALITY. Gilbert Chesterton has warned the people of England that they are making a great mistake in meeting the hysteria of the militant gut- fragettes by ‘brutality, He points’ gut that, in doing this, each sex is opposing the other with its weakest side. Women are weakest when hyster- ical. Men, especially when coming in contact with women, are weakest when most brutal. Neither sex will win as long as they persist in thus exposing their fatal weakness.’ And now comes Conan Doyle, knighted for his literary achievements, and suggests that, if the women go on acting hysterically, the men will re- taliate by lynching them wholesale. What sort of a knight is this who suggests such treatment of the weaker sex? Sir Doyle has just reached ‘American shores, and it may be that he has failed to read of the disgusting bru- talities perpetrated upon the women, to the num- ber of about 250, by an army of 1500 London po- licemen at the recent attempt of the suffragettes to present a petition to King George. Those burly uniformed men unmercifully clubbed the women, struck them in the faces with their fists, and did everything short of actually tearing them limb from limb. Does Sir Conan indorse such chiv- alry? Does he uphold a recent advertisement, in the London Express, for thugs who know how to use. the cat-o-nine tails, as guards for property supposed to be menaced by the militant women? Hysterieal women need medical care and treat- ment, not clubs, lashes and lynchings. These women who are burning buildings, ruining art works and chaining themselves to seats in the- aters should be put in hospitals and dealt with as persons afflicted with temporary psychic dis- es And it should be remembered that their emo- tional struggle is caused by wrongs-and a deep sense of them. PRESBYTERIANS AND DEATH PENALTY. Significant was the resolution that came be- fore the Presbyterian General Assembly, backed by the judgment of one of {ts standing commit- tees, that the influence of the church should be exerted for the abolition of the death penalty. The aggressiveness of those who insist on ay lex talionis is destined to diminish in sedular lar as well ag religious bodies as time goes on. aggressiveness of those who contend that an State cannot magnify the sacredness of human life by iteelf setting an example in destroying life is destined to increase.

Rain, which made no difference what- ever to the pioneers, interfered seriously with our representation of what the ploneers did. Thus De Soto, who went from Florida to Arkansas in the rainy season and saw very few clear days; lost half his men in the storm at the Pageant last night, and Father Marquette, who was accompanied down the Mississippi by several war canoes, made his ap- in association with only those few hardy followers who happened to wear waterproof paint. That the ex- plorers and pioneers could not consist - ently carry umbrellas must occur to us all. The whole thing is an idealization. We are made of no such stuff as that which constituted the pioneers. They would all have reveled in the thunder- shower at the park last aight. Such a THE PAGHANT—FOURTH MOVEMENT. THE CAESAR OF FINANCE. From the New York Financial World. Amazingly lacking in con- putty-like compliance with the will of the imperial Morgan the elder, the system tells an amazed world that Mor- gan’s mere frown made all the puppets | anne in the New Haven Board of Directors jump and they did his absolute bidding. All fled to cover when Mellen suggested that they ask Morgan what $11,000,000 was spent for and why. Our modern financial Caesar hed his | way, and the so-called directors and the kept silence. The best Mellen could summon up courage to do in the way of protest was to write on the records of the transaction these words: There is nothing to show who got the money for the truck (Westchester stock) turned over. I do not like the looks of it and 1 do not see why the whole mat- ter should not be made plain.“ | ever since its purchase has cost the New Haven something like $1,000, nually. But the deal wasn't made plain und is yet lacking in elucidation. Was Morgan money mad, or power mad, or what? The next job Mellen tells about is equally astounding. The Boston & Maine had under lease at $260,000 an- nually a small road known as the: Worcester, Nashua & Rochester. The Mutual Life Co. owned 16,6% shares of ert this company and had to get rid of it, under the new law. Mr. Mellen didn’t know what ite earnings were and never inquired, as no separate account was kept, but one morning Morgan called 0 te se A me fixed charge of $396,000 annually, egainst the former charge of calied for in the lease. Instead of ing a silent memorandum of protest against this, office boy Mellen ejacu- lated, Jerusalem! and let it go at that.

It was a “howling wil- derness, the Eastern-raised brides wrote home in dismay, and only in the garrison towns was life worth living. But the jolly little Arab families, who lived their brief season in ‘officers’ row,“ quite ready to pack and obey marching orders at a moment’s notice, gave the disconsolate brides their phi- losophy and brightened the passing hour as best they could.

Sometimes the tables are turned and a teacher is made to heed her own inac- curacies of articulation. Morris Einstein came to his teacher politely to say, “I tells you, ‘scuse, teacher, my brother. He is going to be absent this afternoon.”’ Is he?“ responded the teacher. “No, Ikey.“ prompted Morris. 7 I seem to have heard that one before, but was assured it originated at Jeffer- son School, and in the regular course of day, honoring teacher as the subject of his composition, he wrote: ; „I have a lovely teacher.

Is it always a “lucky hunch” that enables him to make good? Sometimes, perhaps. But more often success comes through the exercise of excellent judgment—frequently as the result of intelligent thinking and the subsequent transference of thought into action. A “hunch” (7 Hees veper Aue te Maney ** W is the proper age to marry? A is a poor substitute for negative rather than a positive tale. sults.

The balance swings against“ just as often as “for.” Far better go to work with your brain than with your superstition. What, victories you win are then made trebly; enriching—your own mental develop- ment is advanced—success is justly - yours, for it has been earned—and you grow in the consciousness of power and mastership. Judgment is the fruit ot thought, and thought is the tree of knowledge, and knowledge springs from the man's thirst for development.

Old Doc“ Crandall, who for years specialized as a ‘‘finisher,’’ has branched out as a regular practitioner, these days, and he’s reputed to be the premier Doc of the Federal League. The rotund Otey yesterday gave the Kaw- feds a shot in the arm and lulled them to sleep on eight hits, widely scattered. The score of 5—0 indicatés how sound was the work of the Doctor. It was Crandall’s sixth sticcessive vic- tory of the season, giving him the top- most position among the outlaw hurlers. For considerable time Doc has been forced to play second base, despite his nay but he came back into his own, Friday, when Manager Brown beckoned him to the hurling hill. One other hurler has such an unblem- ished record in the Federal League, but he has jumped the outlaw fence: Frank Smith, the plano-mover of the Terrapins, won four straight games be- fore he hopped back to Montreal and he’s tied with Crandall as the winning pitcher of the League. Bobby Quinn, another Baltimore star, has won six and lost one, being third in line. Seaton of Brooklyn with 7—3 comes next, ties with Claude Hendrix of Chicago. The records surely indicate that the old adage: ‘Class will tell.“ holds good in the new League. Crandall, Hendrix. Quinn, Seaton and Smith are some of the sure enough stars who jumped to the outlaws and they have worked their way to the top where they belong. Kommers Is Benched. The suspension yesterday by President Gilmore of Fred Kommers, who is charged with attacking Umpire Man- nassau in Baltimore caused a small furore in the local Federal camp. Kommers has been indefinitely set down and President Gilmore is on his way here to investigate. The outlaw executive has copied some of his friend Ban Johnson's methods in ep ager = first and investigating later, 80 slapped on the 1 before he had thoroughly looked into the case. Gil- more is scheduled to reach St. Louis this morning. While here there probably will be a pow-wow over the matter of stealing layers.

The Marquette contingent occu ied seats in the grandstand behind the visit- ing club bench, while a large delegation the Delmar team and sat behind the Browns’ bench, which was occupied by the Delmar team. John Brocksmith pitched for the Mar- quette team. He was opposed by God- frey Weidlicn of the Delmar. team. Weidlich had much the better of the hit argument as the Marquette team got only five safeties in 12 innings, while the Delmar batters got 10 hits off Brock- smith. Weidlich was continually in trouble, however, as he passed 15 Mar- quette batters. A base on balls, starting the twelfth inning, paved the way for the Deimar’s defeat. Cannefax got the pass. Then Curtis Long hit a two-bagger to center field and Cannefax scored all the way from first. A moment later Long stole third base and scored the second run of the inning when Weidlich and Rather tossed out Fox. Brocksmith steadied down in the twelfth and pitched to only three batters, Jones, the third batsman, getting the three putouts. The throwing of Cannefax and Braz- ier featured the game. The umpires were Derrill Pratt and Roy Mitchell of the Browns. FIRST INNING. MARQUETTE—Broughton walked, but was out stealing, Brazier to Waldron. Reno walked. Hawthorne sacrifi Weidlich to Rather.

Because even the highest mar- ket price, on a small volume, can not buy better material, nor ee finer, closer manufacturing.

When the shoes were finished, the friend aes to appear, Keves took the shoes and paid for them. Then he raffled them off on the floor of the Merchants by selling 50 chances at 25 cents a chance, netting him 50 cents on the deal. Arthur Petri took three chances on the shoes, and won them. Then he sold them to Wiillam A. Rooke for $5. Rooke disposed of them to William T. Hill for $6.00. Hill found that he could not wear them, so he raffled them ofi again. : Archie Kees, just as a joke, took a chance and won them back. The day he did so, the shoemaker called him yp and informed him that his friend was in the Shoeshop. nad the 312, and wanted the shoes.
