TWO MILITANTS, OF THE\ NOBILITY, ARE ARRESTED Taken When They Insist on Presenting Mrs. Pankhurst's Petition to King. LONDON, July 2%.—Two suffragettes belonging to the British nobility, Lady Barclay and the Hon. Miss Edith Fitz- gerald, were arrested today at Buck- ingham Palace, where they made per- sistent attempts to. present to King George a letter written to His Majesty by Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, leader of the militant suffragettes. The letter demanded a personal interview with the King and said suffragettes should be given the same right to interview as certain militant men, namely Sir Ed- ward Carson and others invited to Buckingham Palace by the King on his own initiative. The women arrived at the palace this morning carrying a large scroll prettily draped with purple ribbon streamers. They stated they had a pe- tition to present to His Majesty. The attendants persuaded them to leave, but they returned and announced they would remain until they should be given an audience with the King. The police then arrested them. BOYHOOD CHUMS IN GERMANY MEET IN ALTON Latest to Arrive in America Has Not Forgotten the Old Time Whistle. Karl Hinkle and Hans Hillman were sitting in their home in Alton Wednes- day night talking about the days of their youth when they were chums in Germany and wondering what had be- come of their Pernt, Herman Schu- bert. 5 ‘I wonder where Herman is now, said Hinkle. Outside the house there was a loud shrill whistle. It was the whistle the three chums had used as a call in Ger- many. “By golly, that must be exclaimed Hillman. They ran to the front door and there at the garden gate was Herman Schu- bert. He had just arrived in Alton from Germany. He knew his old friends had settled there ten years ago and he look- ed them up, sounding the whistle as a signal that he had arrived.

WENT TO GET THE REST Laborer Who Parted With Sav- ings Then Finds Money“ Package Contains Paper. Jacob Benjamin of 706 South Fourth street, parted with $740, his life's sav- ings, to convince a stranger of his hon- esty. Benjamin told the police he met a man at Broadway and Chouteau avenue Wednesday afternoon who offered to get him a job washing windows at $2.0 a day. They met by appointment Thursday morning in front of the Post- office at Eighth and Olive streets. They took a stroll and at Thirteenth and Pine streets Benjamin's companion met a friend. The latter said he was en- gaged in charity work, distributing money among honest men. Benjamin's. escort seemingly became deeply interested and the friend, at his request, went into details about his undertaking. Whenever he came in contact with a real honest man, he said. he gave $2 for every $1 that man could produce. Seheme Is “Tested.” Benjamin’s companion wanted to test the scheme. He produced a check for $175 and the man promptly gave him in return for it what appeared to be $350 in currency bills. “Don’t you wish you were honest, too?” asked the distributer of wealth, turning to Benjamin with a smile. Jam,“ said Benjamin hopefully. „es, I think he is an honest man,“ added Benjamin’s companion. “But how can he prove it?“ the man with money wanted to know. „I have $740 in the American Trust Co.’s bank,’’ said Benjamin seriously. “Ah, that is just-the point,” said the modern Diogenes. “Prove to me you are honest by producing that amount of money and I will double it for you.” Benjamin: ran home, got his bank book, drew his little fortune from the bank and returned to where the confi- fience men were waiting. “Is this all you have?” asked the hunter of honest men, as he began counting Benjamin’s money. Produces $1.25 More. The victim dug into his pocket and extracted $1.25. „See, he said, handing the change to the other. I am really honest. After pocketing Benjamin's wealth, the stranger produced a small package wrapped in newspaper. “This contains only $1400,” he said, “but I will go and fetch the balance due you. Wait right here on this spot. I will be back in a few min- utes.” Benjamin waited and waited. His first companion after discussing their „good fortune” said he would go in search of the other man. Benjamin waited an hour longer and then ex- amined his package. It contained scraps of worthless paper. At first he thought a mistake had been made. Then it dawned en him he had been swindled.

IGEN. HUERTA AND to Tampico from Vera Cruz by boat and suffered compound fractures of both HIS PARTY rA JAMAICA IN FLIGHT Deposed Mexican Dictator Will Remain at Kingston for at Least a Week. WORD FROM REBEL CHIEFS — mene ree Carbajal, Carranza, Villa and Zapata Assure U. S. of De- Sire for Peace. KINGSTON, Jamaica, July 24.—Gen. Huerta and the party of fugitives from Mexico accompanying him arrived here at noon today on board the German cruiser Dresden from Puerto Mexico. Arrangements had been made in ad- vance for the former Mexican dictator, with Gen. Blanquet and the rest of the party, to remain here for a week or more at a hotel where several other Mexican refugees already have taken up their quarters. WASHINGTON, July 24.—Direct ad- vices to the United States today from Provisional President Carbajal, Gen. Carranza, Gens. Villa and Emiliano Za- pata—the four chief elements in the Mexican problem—renewed the hopes of officials here for peace. Carbajal, through the Brazilian Min- ister in Mexico City, declared officially that he was willing to transfer the exec- utive power to Carranza and had sent a delegate, Reginaldo Cepeda, to ar- range matters with the Constitutional- ist chief. Carbajal reiterated that he merely wanted an amnesty for political offenders and guarantees for the safety of the property of people who had sup- ported Huerta. Carranza. through the American Con- sul accompanying him, manifested his reodiness to be lenient with the foes of the Constitutionalists and.give the de- sired guarantees, Villa, in a message phrased in most courteous terms, spoke of his desire to see peace established on a basis of jus- tice and liberty and gave assurances that he would do his utmost to restore normal conditions. Communication with Zapata has been difficult, but official word has been ob- tained from him in which he manifests 9 desire to join with the Constitution- alist.chiefs in rehabilitating the govern- mental machinery throughout Mexico. John R. Silliman, President Wilson’s personal representative, reported from Tampico that Gen. Carranza had told him confidence could be placed in his attitude, not only toward the proposition of safety guarantees, but also toward the representations growing out of the execution of two French citizens at Zacatecas. Madero Assassins Have Filed. Carranza’s statement was interpreted in many quarters as indicating that he would declare amnesty for the forces that fought him. Elsewhere it was suggested he might reserve the right to punish the men involved in the anti- Madero plot. Whether that would be acceptable by the Carbajal Government was only conjectural. Inasmuch, how- ever, as most of the men implicated in Madero’s assassination have fled from Mexico, hope was expressed that an agreement speedily might be reached. Reginaldo Cepeda, who has been named by Provisional President Carbajal to confer with Carranza, was on his way today. As soon as he is received by the revolutionary chief to arrange de- tails for the transfer of the Mexico City Government, an armistice formally will be signed. Carranza’s detailed at- titude toward amnesty for political of- fenders and genéral guarantee for the populace probably will be revealed then. Volunteer Envoys Out. The three Federal commissioners who left Mexico recently for Monterey to talk with Carranza went as volunteers. Now that Cepada has received a for- mal appointment probably they will not figure in negotiations. Dr. Cepeda is a former Governor of San Luis Potosi. He was elected to that office in 1911, but was deposed by Huer- ta and imprisoned. He is an intimate friend of Caranza and entirely Consti- tutionalist in sympathies. Investigation of Huerta’s Financial Methods Ordered by Carbajal. MEXICO CITY, July 24.—President Carbajal has ordered an investigation of the financial methods of the Huerta government. If irregularities are found those guilty of them will be punished, according to law, it is stated. The Government announced today that it would begin negotiations immediately with the American authorities in Vera Cruz to arrange for establishment of the Federal service there under Mexican of- ficials. The Government will also pro- pose the re-establishment of Mexican military authorities at Vera Cruz. Railroad Repaired and Train From Mexico City Reaches Vera Cruz. VERA CRUZ, July 24.—The _ first through train from Mexico City since the American occupation of Vera Cruz arrived here early today, the breach in the railroad having been repaired. It brought many passengers, including a large number of Huerta adherents, who took the opportunity to leave the Fed- eral capital before its occupation by Constitutionalists. The passengers reported all quiet in the capital, and said the feeling of se- curity there had incrsased on account of the strong reinfo“ ent of the gar- rison, which. they believed to number 20,000 men.

CONSERVED HER LEGACY When Candy Maker’s Widow In- vested in Stocks, She Put Like Amount in Bank. Mrs. Ida Mary Loud of 1930 Virginia avenue, daughter of Mrs. Mary Jane Blanke, the inventory of whose estate, filed a few days ago, showed that $223,598.50 of her $823,519.11 per- sonal estate was in the form of cash, told a Post-Dispatch reporter Friday why her mother kept such an unusual amount of cash in banks. Mrs. Blanke, according to Mrs. Loud, acted on the principle of the man who puts his money in different pockets so that he will not lose all if he is held up. She kept large sums in different banks so that if disaster overtook one there would be a suf- ficiency in another. Replenished Cash When Investing. Following the same rule, whenever she invested in such fluctuating com- modities as stocks, bonds, real estate or business enterprises, she would adc a proportionate sum to her cash deposits. This practice she considered a safe- guard against the danger of her en- tire holdings being wiped out by any single calamity. When the inventory was taken after her death it was found that she had a certificate of deposit for $95,- 695.50 and cash in bank amounting to $127,903.91. Before her marriage to Auguste H. Blunke, a candy manufacturer, when she was Miss Mary Farmer, she taught at the Laclede School a num- ber of years. It was in that per- lod that she formed many of her ideas about the management of wealth, Later in life she was asso- ciated closely with her husband in the management of his large and varied business interests. It is be- lieved by Mrs. Blanke’s survivors that the fortune Blanke left his wid- ow has been increased one-third by her conservative methods of manag- ing it. The other items of Mrs. Blanke’s personal estate were $17,800 in notes, $473,000 in stocks, $108,000 in bonds and $319.70 in chattels. Unusual Amount of Cash. It is unusual for the possessor of an extensive estate to keep such a large proportion of it in currency. Almost one-fourth of the personal estate of Mrs. Blanke was in cash. Of the $17,264,154 personal estate left by Adolphus Busch, the amount in cash was $786,134.49. The proportion in cash was only about one-twenty-second. When Benjamin Altman died recently in New York it was found that of his es- tate, appraised as worth between $20,- 000,000 and $23,000,000, only $28,444 was in cash. Mrs. Blanke was 76 years old, and lived at 3219 Russell avenue. Her es- tate eventually will go to Mrs. Loud’s three sons. IMPORTERS’ FIRM FAILS; LIABILITIES $1,250,000 New York House Is Said by Its Attorneys to Have Assets Exceeding Debts. NEW YORK, July 24.—Boessneck, Broesel & Co., importers and dealers in dry goods, made a4 general assign- ment today for the benefit of credit ors. Attorneys for the firm declared that liabilities were approximately $1,250,000 and assets in excess of that sum. The assignment, according to the attorneys, was caused by the curtailment of the firm’s foreign credits. FAIR WEATHER TONIGHT, SAME TEMPERATURE THE TEMPERATURES. Yesterday’s Temperature.

The law making it a felony for a motor vehicle driver to flee after an accident in which a person is injured by the vehicle does not apply to street cars, Was the ruling handed down by Judge Clark in the Court of Criminal Correction, Friday. Judge Clark sustained a demurrer based on that contention by a United Railways attorney, in the case of John Raney, a Cass line conductor, who re- fused to give his name to a policeman after his car had knocked down Mrs. Johanna Moss of 4600A Evans avenue at Sixth street and Washington avenue. The demurrer was filed Tuesday and had been under advisement. Assistant Circuit Attorney McDaniels went into court and informed Judge Clark the State could not make a case against Raney, as the law making flight a fel- ony specifically exempted street cars. LINEMAN TOUCHES LIVE WIRE, FALLS 40 FEET * Edwardsville Aceident Is Second of the Kind in the Last Five Days. Henry Hoerr of Morton, III., signal- man for the Illinois Traction Co., was seriously injured Thursday night when he accidentally touched one of the com- pany’s wires carrying a voltage of 2300 at Terry’s Siding, near Edwardsville. | He was at work on a pole 40 feet from the ground and fell that distance. He was unconscious when picked up. The town of Edwardsville has pend- ing a suit to compel the traction com- pany to replace its exposed wires of high voltage with insulatsd wires. Hoerr is the second lineman to be | shocked in a similar way in five days. i — — — — BARTENDER ON A LARK OFF DUTY HOLDS UP" SALOON Poplar Bluff Man Lines Up Six Men in Place Here, Then a Little Man Capturts Him. ‘ Edward Porter was serving drinks to five customers in his saloon at 19801 Chestnut street at noon Friday when a large man entered and ordered a drink. He drank it slowly and smiled at the Jokes passing between Porter. and his customers. Then he ordered a second drink. Por- ter had just served it and returned to his other customers, when they were startled to see the stranger draw from! his pocket a big revolver, which he flourished about with a command that they hold up their hands and line them- selves along the bar facing him. He walked back and forth in front of them, pointing the revolver first at one and then at another, while he described his remarkable ability. at handling re- volvers and explained that he was a sure-shot. The stronger had his back to the door and did not see a small man enter. The newcomer sized up the situgtion quick- ly and, creeping up behind the man with the revolver, he “strong-armed’ the pad man, and then the five custom- ers rushed forward and took the re- volver. When policemen arrived the stranger said he was William R. Smith, a bar- tender of Poplar Bluff, Mo. He had ar- rived in town a few was enjoying life on the the var. He | ; The man who @ Fred O.

Bertha Gueydan, first wife of former Premier Caillaux, was the most damaging witness to the defense whose testimony has yet been adduced. She told how the prisoner had become the mistress of Caillaux, and how the witness had obtained a divorce. A packet of letters that passed between Caillaux and the woman he afterward married was pro- duced by the witness. She gave them into custody of Labori, Mme. Caillaux’s attorney, to de- cide whether they should be made public. “ Jean Louis Barthou, former premier, denied Caillaux’s state- ment that Mme. Gueydan had showed him the “Thy Joe” let- ters. * 1 4 2 to ask for a divorce. It was always the same cry: ‘Let us begin again with a clean slate.“ Surrenders Private Letters. The emotional climax of the triai was reached when private letters were hand- ed over by Mme. Gueyden to Labori, counsel for Mme. Caillaux. Those who packed the courtroom witnessed one of the most dramatic incidents in the an- nals of French courts. “Here is the packet of letters I took at Mamers,” Mme. Gueydan said, giv- ing them to an attendant, who p « d them to M. Labort J will consider with Maitre Chenu what shall be done,“ M.

He was called to order by the Judge, but con- tinued to recite the circumstanves of his divorce, turning frequently toward his former wife. Both he and Mme. Caillaux believed, he said, that the “Thy Joe’’ letter formed one of a triology and that its publication would be followed by the publication of the other two. “Gentlemen,” he turned to the jury, “I am profoundly unhappy. I had been | a profoundly happy man since my sec- ond marriage,” Mme. Caillaux’s sobs at this stage redoubled and became painful to hear. “Are you going.“ M. Caillaux asked: of Mme. Gueydan, “to force us to trumpet forth in this place all those things that we avoided at the time of the divorce?” Mme. Gueydan returned no answer. M. Caillaux left the stand.

The court hummed with expectation when the ex-Premier, Jean Louis Bar- thou, walked to the stand. After he had recorded his high opinion of the integrity and patriotism ot ¢raston Cal- mette, whom he had known for 25 years, he denied ever having told M. Caillaux that Mme.

WASHINGTON, July 24.—War Depart- ment officials today perfecting plans for the opening of the Panama Canal to commerce on Aug. 15. The ves- sel which would be given the honor of leading a fleet of merchantmen through the great waterway had not been de- termined upon, but it was probable that the Cristobal, a War Department steam- er, would be selected. No ceremonies will mark the event. That will wait until the official open- ing in March, 1915, when an international fleet of warships will pass through the waterway and up the Pacific Coast. Secretary Garrison in announcing the date of the canal opening, stated that at this time ships needing. not more than 30 feet of water can be accommo- dated in the passage between the two oceans. A greater depth will be avall- able later. Some of the navy’s dread- naughts might now grope through the canal, hut Secretary Daniels said he would not venture the passage of a bat- tleship until deeper draft was reached. While the Cristobal probably will be selected to lead the first commercial fleet, through the canal, yet the distinc- tion of being the first steam vessel to go through the great waterway betongs to the Alex La Valley crane-construc- tion boat. Her passage occurred in the ordinary course’ of canal work,. Jan. 7. La Valley, Capt. Carter commanding, has been working on the Atlantic en- trance. She crept along the canal, passing through the Culebra cut. soon after Gamboa dike was blown up and before th. great earth slides had thor- oughly developed and partially: closed the canal. None but the crew. was aboard. La Valles, on the last stage of her journey, left Pedro Miguel lock at 9:30 on the morning of Jan. 7, passed through Miralflores lock at 10:15 a. m. and reached the Pacific channel dt 11:0 a, m. The first man to go through the canal was Alfred Brown, an American, who swam from the Gatun iocks to Balboa, a distance of 30 miles, on Nov. 24 last, in 16h. 35m. actual swimming time. The first vessel to pass completely around South America by way of the canal was the tug Reliance, Capt. R. C. Thompson, which sailed from Colon Feb. 14, 1912, voyaged 10,500 miles around South America and returned to the At- lantic Ocean through Gatun lotks, Feb. 1 last. ; CARTER QUITS TRUST CO. were Secretary Leaves Bankers for Savings Concern.

John Cyril Porte in the Rodman Wana- maker hydroaeroplane America, John Lansing Callan nas arranged to move the floating machine shop and 200 gal- lons of gasoline from St. Michaels to Fayal, where the motors can be over- hauled after the arrival of the Americu. The winds in August are different from those of July and the lee of Mount Bra- zil, on the Island of Fayal, will offer a smoother sea for a getaway for the next lap of the flight. If the America is unable to rise from Fayal with a full load on her way io Vigo, Spain; the next stopping place, Lieut. Porte will take her to St. Mi- chaels for a supply of gas. Lieut. Porte has asked Callan to join him at Fayal in order that he may fly with him on the last lap. All Arrangements Complete. Arrangements for the reception of the flying boat at the Azores are complete. If Lieut. Porte can plot his craft into sight of the islands, even in a cripple condition, it is probable that the flight will be successfully completed, for a supply of tools and motor parts that will enable him to whip the boat into condition to continue the journey within a very short time after its arrival has been provided. Once the machine passes the Azores it will have met its severest test, for it is only 600 miles to Vigo, Spain, where more stations have been established, and the flying boat then will be near land all the way to its des- tination. As soon as Callan reached the Azores he made a teur of the archipelago to study the harbors and wind conditions. The tentative plan was for the flying boat to drop at Flores, the ‘nearest island to Newfoundland; to pick up enough gasoline at that place to carry the machine on to Fayal, 133 miles dis- tant. No Protection There. Callan found; however, that the open harbor at Flores offered no protection and that the winds were likely to be | sighted. strong enough to kick up a sea that would be too rough to permit a landing or a getaway. At St. Michaels he established a com- plete repair and supply depot, but now will move it to Fayal. Under ordinary conditions the machine will. be ready to continue its flight with- in five hours after its arrival, and just as fresh as when it left St. John’s. Government officials in the Azores have entered heartily into arrangements and are doing everything possible to in- sure protection for the boat while it is in Azorean waters. As arrangements with the island Gov- ernment had to be made through a semi- official source, Callan put himself into the hands of American Consul Haeberle, and the elaborate patrol plans are due largely to the efforts of the Consul. Governor Enthusiastic. With the Consul, he called on the civil Governor, Jacinto Gago de Faria Maria, who greeted them enthusias- tically and discussed the best methods to pursue. He then called in the Cap- tain of the Port, who will have imme- diate supervision of the patrol. The authorities expect to surround the flying boat with Government vessels filled with soldiers as soon as it lights on the water, and in this way to keep all other vessels at a safe distance. The port pilot will keep all transatlantic vessels anchored at a point far enough away from the flying boat to insure it a long straightaway when it attempts to retake the air. Officials and clubmen were eager to prepare banquets and entertainment for the aviators when they arrive, but un- der the conditions of the flight they cannot come ashore, so the celebrations will be confined to the spectators of the flight. Callan sent to every shipping office in this part of the world announcements of ‘the flight, describing the flying boat and asking assistance if it is found to be in trouble. The pilot stations on each of the islands also are on the look- out and at each a boat is in readiness to rush to the assistance of Porte and his companion the moment they are — America’s Motor Success; Hopes for Flight Are Strong Continued From Page 1. soaked up during the rainy weather here.

MEN BE PUT UNDER OATH Johnson Would Have Supreme Court Commission Investi- gate Rate Increase. A thorough investigation of ice rate increases made simultaneously by the Polar Wave and most of its rival ice companies, by a Supreme Court com- missioner authorized to put the ice deal- ers and others under oath, will be rec- ommended by Loomis C. Johnson, spe- cial prosecutor, appointed by Gov. Ma- jor, upon his return from a vacation trip next week. The payment of a $25,000 fine Thursday by the Polar Wave will not interfere with the investigation of its conduct, Johnson says, and will not operate in the slightest to prevent the revival r a judgment of ouster from its charter, which the Supreme Court last April sus- pended on condition that the antitrust laws be observed in future. The court fined the company $50,000 in lieu of ousting it from business in the State, but on a plea for clemency re duced the fine to $25,000 July 2, on condi- tion of good behavior. When notified the Polar Wave attor- neys had paid tne reduced fine, John- son. telegraphed the Post-Dispatch he would advise an investigation under oath upon his return. Johnson said the taking of testimony under oath and the production of books and papers before a commissioner of the Supreme Court.is the only method by which the question of parole viola- tion can be determined authoritatively Assistant Attorney-General W. T. Rutherford has investigated the ice rate Increase informally on a complaint filed by Johnson as special prosecutor that the Polar Wave had arbitrarily increased the price of ice to small consumers in midsummer. Rutherford has not con- cluded his inquiry and says he has not decided. whether he will recommend the appointment of a commissioner.

Sam Werner of 5215 Cabanne avenue, general manager of the Swanson-Craw- ford Film Co., testifying Friday in the „movie trust“ investigation before Spe- cial Commissioner Henry P. Lay at the Maryland Hotel, said his company lost 75 per cent of its business in 1913 be- cause the Mutual Films Corporation re- fused to sell his company films after the latter had refused to stay in terri- tory which the Mutual company had outlined for it. While the State’s investigation is main- ly against the Mutual Films Corpora- tion of Missouri, it also is being directed against the Mutual Films Corporation, an older company. Werner, representing the complainants, told how, prior to the organization of the Mutual Films Corporation of Mis- souri, his firm was fought by the older corporation. He said officials of this company told him when the older com- pany was being organized that unless the Swanson-Crawford company sold out it would be driven out of business. Werner said they tried to carry out this threat. His company, he said, was paying % per cent dividends on $150,000 stock, or $37,500 a year, when the fight began more than a year ago. Since then, he said, the business had fallen otf 75 per cent. He attributed this to the refusal of the Mutual to sell his company any more films because his company had rented their releases in Illinois and elsewhere. The Mutual, he declared, wished to handle the outside business from its Chicago office. When his com- pany persisted in renting where it pleased, he said, the larger flom began releasing the same film in the same town several days ahead of release time. This, he explained, made the same film virtually worthless to his customers when they got them several days later. Later, he said, the Mutual telegraphed his company it would no longer sell to Swanson-Crawford certain films, which Werner said were the best crowd-draw- ers on the market. As most of the other manufacturer had their own exchanges, he said, it made it virtually imperative for the Swanson-Crawford company to purchase from the Mutual, so as to have enough new films on hand to supply their de- mand. Several moving picture exhibitors, former customers of the Swanson-Craw- ford company, testified that about a year ago the latter company became unable to supply them with enough new films, and that as a consequence tney nad to deal with other firms.

Three boys, each 9 years old, were captured at noon Friday in the United Railways yards, at Park avenue and Thirty-ninth street, by Charles Seiser, a foreman, after they had broken open the coin box on a car and taken $11.11. Two boys were on the car platform and a third appeared to be a lookout. They gave their names as Robert Whittaker of 3720 La Salle street, Alex Varga of 3719 Chouteau avenue and Jules Martin of 1515 South Thirty-ninth street. They admitted taking the money found in their pockets, and said they had broken open the box by using a screw- driver they had picked up in the yards.

Three months later, its report shows, the fund contained $25,451.39. J. A.

The fund was brought into court through a suit filed by Miss Fannie Stein, formerly a stenographer in the bank, who left its employ in May, 1913, after 26 years’ service.

Carl Chase II HAD DOCTOR HEL SUES FOR DIVORCI Attorney Says Petition, Filed, Then Withdrawn, Doesn’t Mention Wife’s Auto Trip. F. E. McCaslang,.an East St..Louis real estate agent, filed in the East St. Louis City Court Thursday the divorce suit against Mrs. Mildred Mc- Casland which he said he would file when he caused the arrest at Colum- bia, Mo., last Thursday, of Dr. Claude L. Sellers of 3903A Easton avenue, who with several others, accompanied Mrs. McCasland on an automobile fishing trip. McCasland’s attorney says, however, that there is no men- tion of the automobile trip in the pe- tition. The petition was withdrawn as soon as it was filed and its contents could not be learned. McCasland’s attorney said the principal charge was extreme cruelty and that McUasland would ask custody of the two children. Mrs. McCaslano and her friends mo- tored to Kansas City and frem there to a remote fishing locality, where they camped several days. On their re- turn to Kansas City McCasland had Mrs. McCasland and Sellers arrested as they were riding through the streets in the McCasland automobile. After being held several hours they were re- leased by McCasland’s orders, but Sell- } ers was rearrested at Columbia, Mo., on a warrant charging him with violating | the Mann act. McCasland went to Co- llumbia and, after a violent scene, had Mrs. McCasland sign an agreement re- leasing her claim to property they held jointly and withdrew the charge against Sellers. Sellers, after returning to St. Louis, said he escorted a St. Louis young woman on the trip and was in no sense the escort of Mrs. McCasland.

When he boarded the Olive street car it was so crowded he had to stand. Delbridge told the conductor he would not give up his transfer until he got a seat, whereupon, the petition says, the conductor ejected him from the car, using unnecessary force.

Following the escape of James McCormack,. a. workhouse prisoner-pa- tient, Superintendant Frank Chapman of the City Hospital Friday said he would admit no more prisoners to the hospital for treatment unless the police or work- house management sent special guards to watch over them. McCormack escaped from the hospital Thursday after descending from the fourth floor to the basement in an auto- matic elevator use to convey food and ice to the wards. The entrance to the elevator was through a cell which was supposed to be kept locked. Chapman said investigation showed a guard had left the door open and he would dis- charge this guard. McCormack was being treated for a wound in his shoulder. He was shot by a guard while trying to escape from the workhouse two weeks ago. Another prisoner was to be discharged from the hospital Thursday and his street clothing had been taken to him. While the owner of the clothing was taking a bath McCormack put on the clothes and escaped. Lee Jones, a stretcher boy in the base- ment, saw McCormick walking through the coridor and asked him if he had been released. He replied that he had and no effort was made to detain him.

MAN IN SEPTEMBER MORN QUARREL IS FREED Woman Who Took Pictures of Neighbor’s Child Says She Destroyed Them. Tony Leosmeister of 5528 Old Man- chester road, accused of disturbing the peace of Oliver Rolfes, 17 years old. ef 5523 Old Manchester avenue, was dis- charged in Municipal Police Court Fri- day. Leosmeister’s arrest followed a feud between the two families because Mrs. Leosmeister made a “September Morn’’ photograph of Helen Rolfes, 3 years old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Rolfes. Mrs. Rolfes demanded the negatives and prints. After this quarrel Leosmeister demanded that Rolfes’ son, Oliver, return a baseball glove which she had borrowed. The controversy over the glove led to Leosmeister's arrest and the disclosure of the feud caused by the baby’s picture. At the police court trial Mrs. Leos- meister testified she had destroyed the pictures and had shown them to no one. Acting Judge Walker, in discharg- ing Loesmeister, advised the families to make up.“ HOPES ROOSEVELT WILL AGREE TO EARLY TRIAL Republican State Chairman Barnes of New York Wishes Quick Action in Libel Suit NEW YORK, July 24.—The trial of the libel suit of William Barnes, chair- man of the Republican State Committee, against Theodore Roosevelt, in which $50,000 damages are asked because of references made to Mr. Barnes in a po- litical statement issued Wednesday night will be held in Albany County, the home of Mr. Barnes, unless Mr. Roosevelt gets a change of venue. f Chairman Barnes is anxious for a speedy trial of the case and through his lawyer, James S. N. Ivins, he indicated that he wished to have the issue settled on its merits before October. “If Mr. Roosevelt wishes to adopt ob- structive tactics,’’ Mr. Ivins said after serving the papers in the case, the trial can, of course, be delayed for a year and a half or two years.“ Mr. Roosevelt has given no indication CONFERENCE OM ULSTER CALLED J BY KING FALS pes Leaders Cannot Agree on Area to Be Excluded From Dublin Rute. —ů——— LONDON, July 2. —The fact that the | conference at Buckingham Palace be- tween the leaders of the various political | parties had failed to agree on the part | of Ulster to be excluded from th con- | trol of the Dublin Parliament was con- firmed by Premier Asquith in the House of Commons today. The Premier’s statement on the sub- ject of today’s meeting of the donfer-- ees was very brief. He said. “The possibility of finding an area to be excluded from the operation of the Irish home rule bill was considered, but the conference, unable to agree in principle or in detail on such an area, brought its meeting to a close.” Premier Asquith merely added: That is the report made, Mr. Speaker, by the chairman of the conference to the King.“ Asquith then announced that the sec- ond reading, of the bill to ‘amend the Irish home rule bill would be July 2. The Premier, invited to inform the House as to the exact differences of opinion which prevented the attainment of a settlement by the conference, re- plied: : “I can make no statement on the sub- ject at the present moment.“ The House of Commons then journed. TWO MEN IN STOLEN CAB CHASED BY AUTO ad- Patrolman Captures One of Party After Eleven-Block Drive on Broadway. An exciting race between an automo- bile and a horse, resulting in the defeat of the horse and the arrest of his driver, was witnessed by many persons near Cass avenue and Broadway Thursday afternoon. Edward Hauschulte of 2407 North Broadway and William E. Carman of 201 North Broadway informed a patrol- man they had seen two men steal a horse and cab from in front of 1422 North Ninth street and drive east on Cass avenue. They volunteered to take the policemen in their automobile if he cared to pursue the men. The horse and cab were out of sight, but Hauschulte put on high speed and a minute later the machine was on Broadway. When the men in. the cab saw they were being pursued they lashed the horse into a gallop and for several blocks raced between street cars and other vehicles. At Clinton street, 11 blocks north of Cass, the automobile had gained such headway that the men in the cab, seeing they would be overtaken, jumped from the vehicle in an effort to escape. One got away and the other was captured. He said he was Edward Madden, 20 years old, of 817 Clinton street. The horse and cab belonged to Martin Schlamp of 1324 Clark ave- nue.

DEA TE — a tae — + ~ MOTHER'S ORDERS AND IS DROWNED He Could Swim but Little and She Had Forbidden His Going to a Pond. ‘ Rdewellyn Mullenslater, 99-year-old don and only child of Mrs. Della Mullenslater, a widow of 918 War- ren street, was drowned Wednesday afternoon when he disobeyed his mother and went swimming in a pond near the Niedringhaus rolling mill, Angelrodt street and the Bur- Ungton tracks. Mrs. Mullenslater frequently had taken the boy to public swimming pools, but had told him never to go to any pond. He could only swim a Uttle and had an improvised buoy of two large sealed tin cans connected by a rope, which he fastened under his arms. : The pond was about 30 feet wide. He made his way to the center, where “the water is 15 feet deep, when the rope broke and he sank to e bottom. There were several boys * the pool and they dived for him, t were unable to lift his body to e surface and get it ashore. ' Robert Linder, owner of a house- boat at the foot of Dock street, an- @wered their calls for help and by diving took the boy’s body from the water. The boy was alive when taken out, but died while attempts were being made to resuscitate him. = at ‘the North End Dispen- Ty pronounced him dead when his y reached there. ail ; The La Salle Candy Shop Soda Foun- KILLS SON-IN-LAW, FLOPER, WHEN HE ASKS FORGIVENESS Town Clerk Fires 4 Shots With Hardly a Word as Youth Extends Hand. HAVERSTRAW, N. Y., July 24.—In his cell in the County Jail at New City, where he was taken after he had shot and killed Eugene B. Newman, his 19- year-old son-in-law, William V. Cleary, prominent in county politics and for 14 years Town Clerk, refused today to dis- cuss the murder or tell why he shot the young man. Young Newman, son of one of the owners of the Rockland County Mes- senger, secretly married Cleary’s 18- year-old daughter, Anna Cleary, on last Saturday, in Weehawken, N. J. Yes- terday the couple confided in their re- spective mothers and Newman was ad- vised to tell Cleary and ask his forgive- ness. It was while on this mission that New- man was shot. He entered the Town Clerk’s office, where Cleary was talk- ing with three friends, Bernard Fox, a brewery agent; Patrolman Sheridan and Josiah Felter, County Supervisor. Newman extended his hand and asked for Cleary’s blessing. Cleary, with hardly a word, and before his friends could interfere, fired four bullets into the young man’s. body. Newman died instantly and Cleary shortly afterward surrendered himself to the authorities. * Newman and Anna Cleary had been sweethearts from their first meeting six vears ago. His parents did not object and Cleary himself never showed any bitter opposition to the match, although, it is said, he did not look upon it with favor. — ~~ — — — tain ¢ serves the best of everything. ae — — — JOPEN UNTIL 6 P.

PRESIDENT’S EXPLANATION Says Fight Was Dropped at Chi- cagoan’s Request to Hurry Along New Legislation. WASHINGTON, July “#—With the bitter fight in the Senate over the con- firmation of Thomas D. Jones of Chi- cago, President Wilson's nominee for the Federal Reserve Board, ended, Senators today were breathing a sigh of relief that the prolonged contest was over, and were preparing to settle down to con- sideratian of the administration's anti- trust program. Belief on the part of Present Wilson that the program might be endangered were the fight contiued, was responsible for the withdrawal of the nomination. The contest had delayed consideration of. anti-trust legislation. Democratic leaders in the Senate today were de- termined to press to a conclusion the anti-trust program and bring Congress to adjournment at the ealiest possible moment. To that end, the interstate trade commission bill, already before the Sen- ate, was to be taken up in earnest. After its passage the Clayton anti-trust and the railway securities bills were to be disposed of. These three measures, constituting the entire anti-trust pro- gram, are now before the Senate. Ad- ministration leaders today hope for ad- journment of Congress not later than September 16. Interest in Warburg Case. Interest in the Reserve Board situa- tion today centered in the discussion as to whom President Wilson would choose as Jones’ successor and the out- come of the contest over the confirma- tion of Paul M. Warburg, the New York banker, nominated to be a mem- ber of the Reserve Board. The names of Omar F. Hershey, of Baltimore, and M. Fenton, the choice of Senator Lewis of Illinois were understood to be under consideration. Belief prevailed today that Assistant Secretary Hamlin of the Treasury Department would now be made Governor of the Federal Reserve Board. President Wilson’s action in withdraw- ing the nomination of Jones, it was stated at the White House, was not an indication that there had been any change in his determination to insist upon the confirmation of Warburg. As- surances have been given the President that Warburg can be confirmed. By withdrawing the nomination of Jones, President Wilson brought to an end the bitterest fight of his adminis- tration.- In doing so the President acted in harmony with the written request of Jones, who urged that he no longer be permitted to remain a cause of embar- rassment. The President's action. was entirely unexpected. His message reached the Senate just as Senator Reed of Mis- souri (Dem.), who opposed confirma- tion, was concluding a speech denounc- ing the International Harvester Co., of which Jones is a director, and those re- sponsible for its existence and opera- tions. The contest was at its height and feeling was running high. The mes- Sage caused a mild sensation, caused many Senators to wreathe easier and ended debate that promised to continue indefinitely. Correspondence in Case. Accompanying the message was Jones' letter and the President’s reply. Jones had been opposed because of his con- nection with the Harvester company, under indictment as a trust, and the Banking Committee had submitted a majority report adverse to confirma- tion. The correspondence between the Presi- dent and Jones was made public at the White House. It follows: “CHICAGO, July 20, 1914. “My Dear Mr. President: I have reached a definite conviction that it is my duty to ask you to withdraw my nomination as a member of the Federal Reserve Board. You are aware that I was in no sense whatever an applicant for the office. It was with the gravest reluctance that I agreed to accept the honorable but heavy burdens of that office in case my nomination were sent to the Senate and confirmed by it. and bitter contest. At the invitation vf the Committee on Banking and Cur- rency I willingly appeared before it to answer any questions which they might desire to. ask me, and I endeavored to answer with entire frankness all the questions that were asked and my tes- timony was made public at my re- quest. “It is not for me to surmise motives or to complain of results. That my nomination and the controversy that has arisen over it in the Committee on Banking and Currency is seriously em- barrassing your administration and is causing injury to the party of which you are the leader, is too clear to ad- mit of any doubt. And in view of the character of the report made by the majority of the Committee on Banking and Currency, a majority composed of six Republicans and two Democrats— much of it based on distortion of facts and perversion of truth—I feel convinced that such opposition has developed to the confirmation of my appointment and such criticism has been made of my nomination that even if the nomination were confirmed by the Senate my use- fulness as a member of the Federal Re- serve Board would be seriously im- paired. “I am not willing longer to re- maln the cause of embarrassment to you and your administration, and in view of the consideration before “I did not then anticipate a protracted | 1 ] stated, I now ask that you withdraw my name from consideration. Faith- fully yours, THOMAS D. JONES.’ Prises Confidence Shown. In @ personal letter to the Presi- dent accompanying the formal re- quest, Jones said: “I cannot let the matter go with- out a personal word, which I deemed inappropriate to be inserted in that letter. I confess that the opportu- nity to be associated with you, even in a minor way, in the actual creative work of government took strong hold upon my imagination. It served to overbear doubts of the wisdom of my undertaking the task presented, growing mainly out of considera- tions of health. I doubt whether I could have stood the work long, but I was prepared to devote the last ounce of strength there was in me to the work, which your proposal seemed to bring me. “Now that the vision is passed, my preponderant feeling is that of pro- found relief. I had come to feel that I was in some way the occasion of getting you into inextricable diffi!- culties. * 6 sure that my with- drawal is wise J hardly dare trust myse!. to say how deeply I prize the confidence you have shown in me and your en- deavors to carry the matter through. It will always be a matter of real and deep pride to me. “With light apparently ahead in Mexico and with achievements al- ready accomplished which even the most sanguine could not have antici- pated a year and a half ago, you can afford to face minor irritations with entire equanimity. If from now on you are to be beset with controversy and difficulties you can, in my opin- tion, rely with entire confidence upon the fact that your past achievements will rank with the highest achieve- ments of the holders of your great office.” President Expresses Regret. President Wilson’s reply was: My Dear Friend: “Your letter of the 2th of July brings to me, I think, more kinds of regret than any other letter I ever received; regret first of all that the country should lose the invaluable services of such a mam as I, and all fair-minded men, who know you at all, know you to be; regret that I should have brought upon you so unpleasant an experience in which you were treated with gross and manifest injustice; regret that such circumstances should seem even for the moment to be associated with appoint- ment to high office under the great Government of the United States repre- senting a generous, fair and honorable people; regret that tne organization of a great banking system should be so embarrassed and obstructed. “You need not think that anything in the present circumstances has embar- rassed me in the least. It causes me not the slightest embarrassment. I have no moment of hesitation or flag- ging enthusiasm in standing by men. whom I honor and believe in. It gives me nothing but pleasure and exhilara- tion to stand by them at any time and to any extent. You may leave my feel- ings (my feelings for myself) out of the reckoning. Opposition From Minority. “The aspect of this matter, which seems to me of gravest concern and consequence, is that the choice of mem- bers of the Federal Reserve Board of the new banking system should have been an occasion of partisan alignment and action. The adverse report on your nomination to which you justly refer as unfair and untrue, is, of course, not to be charged to the feeling or action of the Senate of the United States or to anything for which that great body as a whole can be held responsible. The report is signed only by the minor- ity members of the committee and by two members of the majority who have usually acted with them. There is not reason to believe that either in its tem- por or in its conclusions that report represents the attitude of the Senate itself. I wish most heartily that the inauguration of the new national bank- ing system, a system conceived and en- acted with no element of partisanship in its objects, might have been free from the unfortunate and ominous incident. %-E.Kae. |catBed.Psaa:ETAOINETAON ‘IT believe that the judgment and desire of the whole country cry out for a new temper in affairs. The time has come when discriminations against particular classes of men should be absolutely laid aside and discarded as unworthy of the coun- sels of a great people. The effort for genuine social justice, for peace, the peace which is founded on com- mon understandings and for pros- pority, the prosperity of co-operation and mutual trust and confidence, should be a united effort without partisan prejudice or class antagon- ism. It is only of such just and no- ble elements that the welfare of a great country can be compounded. We have breathed already too long the air of suspicion and distrust. The progress of reform is not retarded by generosity and fairness. Praises His Sincerity. “Your action in requesting that your name be withdrawn displays your usual sensitive regard for con- siderations other than your own per- sonal interest and sincerity, and sin- cerely as I regret it, I cannot but honor you for the action you have taken. I have no right to ask, much less to urge, that you continue to al- low yourself to be made the football of the sort of contest which has sprung up over this nomination. “Tt is a matter of genuine sorrow to me that a man like you should be excluded from the public service on great occasion. But neither of us is responsible for these extraordinary circumstances. We must both ac- cept them. I cannot ask you to un- dergo more than you have under- gone. I can only hope that better, cooler, wiser counsels may presently prevail. “Moreover, a great program of cor- rective and contsurctive legislation is on the eve of completion and I am sure that you would not wish, as I do not wish, anything of a personal character to stand even temporarily, in its way to delay or in any respect divert it. It is already clear that the country comprehends and will itself redress the injustice which has been done you. “With warmest regard, “Cordially and faithfully yours, ~-* _ “WOODROW WILSON.” | CAVALRY CHARGES ULEAR STREETS IN A. PETERSBURG Stern Measures Taken Against Strikers After French President Departs. ST. PETERSBURG, July 2.—Stern measures were taken by the authorities today to suppress the strike riots which have been in progress for several days in the streets of the capital during which a large number of casualities have occurred in the conflict between the police and Cossacks on one side and the striking workmen on the other. Considerable leniency was shown dur- ing the presence here of Raymond Poin- care, President of the French republic, but immediately after his departure four regiments of cavalry of the guard and two regiments of cuilrassiers, under the command of Gen. Kesnakoff, ar- rived from Krasnoye-Selo, to assist in suppressing the disorders. They brought with them a number of quick firing machine guns. A squadron of the newly arrived cav- alry at once came into contact with the strikers, charging and dispersing a crowd of them. The authorities estimate the number of strikers at 135,000, but it is believed the total is greater. The street car service, which has bean interrupted for 48 hours, was restored today. This fact incensed the strikers, who hurled volleys of stones at the cars and their drivers as they proceeded through the streets. The police fired a few shots at the windows of the private houses from which stones had been thrown down at them. One significant feature of the strike is that the movement has been joined by many ulovernment employes. THERE’S NOTHING BETTER Than Horsford’s Acid Phosphate indigestion.

Two men, one of whom the police say was attempting to break into the front door of the Miller Drug Co., Tenth and Market streets, and the other trying to open a slot machine in front, were ar- rested at 4 a. m. Friday. One was caught at the door, and the other ran east on Market street. A policeman fired a shot at the lat- ter, and another policeman at Seventh and Market streets headed him off. The prisoners gave their names as James Hamilton, 26 years old, and I. Eisenman, 21 years old, both of 1308 Clark avenue. They denied any attempt at burglary, saying they were only standing in front of the drug store.

LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 24.—Higu- powered automobiles may have secured the escape of two bandits who robbed southbound Southern Pacific Railroad passenger train No. 22, north of Bur- bank late last night. A Sheriff's posse searching for the men today could find no satisfactorv traces of them from the time they left the train at Hewitt. The cash gain of tne robbers was re- ported today at $337, although they robbed one or two of the best known men in California and several manu- facturers. Reports that they also took watches proved mostly incorrect. Wom- en were not molested. Among the men robbed was the Rev. Matt L. Hughes, pastor of the First M. FE. Church of Pasadena, one of the rich- est churches in the country. From him they got $25. Another man was W. I. Norton, 111 West Monroe street, Chi- cago. .

Over in Dreyfusville the chief [amusement of the press is picking up two-ton rhetorical hammers and bringing them down with a whack on the local managements. The Feds escape the more crushing blows be- cause not much was _ exepcted of them. But Fred Clarke’s Pirates are taking a panning that has made the team . cold. Theres this to be said: Koney, Mowrey and Harmon are standing up well under criticism. They're veter- ans and are used to it, where they came from. Clarke, however, can’t stand the gaff and is expected to retire. Fred has never chaperOned a team that fin- ished in the second division, up to this year; and the going is not pleas- ant. 0 . — Champion Doesn't Mean Merit. HIS word champion“ means little, as a measure of merit. We have had champions and champions, old Dame Fortune mixing truly greats and cheeses with unfathomable abandon. James J. a nice little Edition de Brie, Tommy Burns. Yet both were champions, and both hauled in the shekels, albeit one was title-holder because he whipped all opposition, the other because there never was any opposition to whip—until that dark outlook, Jack Johnson, came into the mise en scene. * „ = 1*Tis a Pitiful Race. O the New York Giants seem to have the best chance to land the Nation- al League pennant, this year, and be- come champions for the fourth consecu- tive time, breaking all big league records for successive championship winning. This means the usual acclaim, much hot adjectives and nitrate-of-strontium tinted rhetoric, about $2500 apiece extra for the players and other accompani- ments that greet champions, whether cheese or genuine. And yet the Giants form but the ghost of a great team and the Na- tional League wind-up will present something of the same excitement as when a gouty man struggles across the finish ahead of a one-legged man and another with locomotor ataxia. „ Roger Ahead of His Time. T must make managers pause and weep when they stop and think of the tricks fate plays them. Roger Bres- nahan could shed a tear or two over the present situation. For, if chance had only sent him into the fleld with his 1911 Cardinals in the year 1914, he would have cleaned up a title, fought for the world's series plum and been a great manager today, instead of a poor, sec- end-string backstop for a broken-down machine, with no particular amount of money left and only diminished fame.

VEN thé Cardinals have a chance to win the pennant this year This club has accomplished big things in coming up from last place to make a pennant fight. The team has more vim and punch than all its rivals and has the right germ working in it. But Huggins will be the luckiest of lucky men if he can get away with a champtonshi with the outfit he now City teams, one in the Federal and one in the National, have been It must make Mound City travelers feel like old times at home to drop into Pittsburg now. Peer deen is having its first taste of tailend baseball. Two Smoky Jeffries scarcely retired before up rose owns. Just consider for a moment what the “Rabbit” is working with: One good, hard-hitting catcher; one hard-working, fair recruit re- ceiver. One minor league first baseman, who has hitherto been used for substitute work. One tired out, ready-to-retire second-sacker, Huggins himself. Hug is not hitting, throwing or getting on. One converted first baseman playing shortstop. One substitute player, recently from the minor leagues playing third. Three fair outfielders, of whom the most sensational appears to be Cozy Dolan, who couldn’t make good for the Pirates, Phils or New York Americans, and who is over 30 years old. Four good ~»pitchers, two them—Doak and Sallee—good enough for anybody’s club. . . . The club has ordinary substitutes in Riggert, Cruise and Nash. It has spirit in abundance and this is the factor plus the really good pitching that has helped most to boost the team high in the race. To win a pennant with this outfit Huggins will be an extremely lucky guy, just as was Marvin Hart when Jim Jeffries willed him the world’s title for beating an ordinary light- heavyweight named Jack Root. “Champion” is just a name, after all; but it’s a name that cops the coin. And that buys more than glory, as any of our popular cham- pions will tell you, * * * Mr. Johnson’s Big Bluff. OM of us, with the memory of Byron Bancroft Johnson's deep bayed defiance to the players’ strike still in mind, rather hankered to have the fraternity pull off the walkout as advertised. The clever tactician, Charles Eb- bets, forestalled a war the serious- | ness of which does not appear to have impressed the Czar of all the base- ball world. Ban declared that if the players “struck”, Organized Baseball would close every big park in the country against them, shutting off their revenue.

S. Tennis Play. Bos CHICAGO, July 24.—About 2000 tennis enthusiasts braved first heat and then a storm to see a wonderful tennis exhi- bition at the Onwentsia Country Club, Lake Forest, yesterday afternoon. Nor- man Brookes and Anthony F. Wilding, the two veteran internationalists who will be the mainstays of the Australa- sian team this year, met Powell and Schwengers of the Canadian team in two singles matches, and simply toyed with the opposition. Brokes defeated Schwen- gers, 6-2, 6—3, 6-2, while Wilding romped over Powell, 6—1, 6—2, 6—1. The contests were the first of the Australians’ eliminations matches. The two victories count as two points The. doubles matches will be played today, Wilding and Brookes meeting probable the same men in the two-man competi- tion. If the Australians win, the last two singles matches, with partners re- versed. scheduled for Saturday, will not be needed to decide the match, as three points give the victory. The Wilding and Brookes combina- tion, a right-hander with a left-hander. is esteemed the strongest doubles com- bination now playing, and a victory is expected by the Antipodeans today. Two More Matches Remain. The Australians next week play the German team at Pittsburg—always sup- posing they win from the Canadians— and the following week play England in the finals at Longwood, Brookline, Mass. Victory in all will entitle the Australians to meet America in the challenge round. Both Canadians were outclassed yes- terday. Wilding’s play, both as to serv- ice and returns, was the greatest ever witnessed in this vicinity. Although Brookes is supposed to be the senior and better of the pair, Wild- ing’s work was the more brilliant and accurate. Wilding will be the dangerous member of this team, on the showing yesterday, although Brookes is a great player, and showed it by his easy mas- tery of Schwengers, the strongest of the Canadian players. In points scored Brookes showed that he was right on the heels of Wilding. He made 90 points to Schwengers’ 60, while Wilding made & points to his op- ponent’s 54—a shade in favor of Wilding that is hardly — Men's Rubber Sole Oxfords, Reid’s, 711 Washington avenue. DOZEN HITS AND DEFEAT ARE TERRIERS’ PORTION BALTIMORE, Md., July 24.—The Ter- riers outhit the Terrapins yesterday—12 hits to 7—but the St. Louisans had to be content with the short end of a 4 score. The safeties were numerous by the men of Brown, but they could not hit George Suggs at opportune times. On the other hand, the Terrapins nicked Bob Groom when hits meant runs. An error by Bridwell also proved costly, Instead of * a double play, two men were left on bases, and these scored on Swacina’s triple. With the score tied at 4 all in the eighth, Meyer doubled, Duncan bunted safely and Meyer scored the winning run on Swacina’s roller — Boucher.

AFFIDAVITS GIVE FLOERKE VICTORY IN SINGLE SCULLS Chicago Judges at Creve Coeur Had Said Fellow-Townsman Tied Local Man. All business pertaining to the recent regatta held at Creve Coeur Lake last week under the auspices of the South- western Rowing Association was finished at a meeting of that organization last night. Several protests had been filed and it was but after many lengthy ar- guments that they were at last decided. The six-oared barge race seemed to be the biggest stumbling block, this dis- cussion culminating into an argument as to whether the referee’s decision could be overruled by the delegates of the various clubs. On the day of this race the Western barge won, but during the course touched outside water, how- ever, finishing inside of the finish flags. The referee gave the event to the Ba- den Club, which finished second, and disqualified the Westerns. The Western delegates protested this decision, and at a meeting the next morning it was decided to row the race over. The Western crew won again. However, the Baden R. C. protested again last night and Von out. Conse- quently, the Mound City R. C. is given oe place and the North End R. C. third. Floerke Awarded Victory. In the single scull race for seniors the two judges at the finish had decided the race a dead heat between Harry Floerke of the Central R. C. and A. O. Greene of the Lincoln Park Boat Club, For some unknown reason both judges were Chicago representatives. Last night a letter was received from Floerke stating that he won the race by two lengths, supported by a number of affi- davits. Floerke was given the race. A protest by the Lincoln Park B. C. four-oared team, claiming that they were fouled by the Western quartet in the half-mile dash, was not allowed. In both of these cases decisions were ren- dered without giving the Chicago men a hearing. a. Six Events for Bait Casters.

The game gave the Cardinals a clean sweep in the series with the team from the wrong end of the Brooklyn Bridge. It also ended the Cards’ successful stand at home. After the game the baseball party taxied to Union Station to catch 1a 5 o’clock train for Philadelphia. — — — 2 PERRITT not only hurled an For a good portion of the way the Robins had just as good a chance to win as the Cardinals. One Mr. Schmutz went along on even terms with Perritt. Each team had scored one run in the first six innings. In tne Brooklyn sev- enth Perritt was nicked for another run, putting the aliens in front, 2—1. Mr. Schmutz had retired in the Brook- lyn seventh to let Dalton single for him. That brought Ed Reulbach on the scene in the Cards’ half. Reulbach got off wrong dy passing Miller, but fanned Wilson, and Dots was doubled when he tried to steal. Even with two gone, the Cards didn’t let up. Beck followed with a double to left and Reulbach again lost control, passing Wingo. Dressen came to the fore with a single which scored Beck, tleing the count at two all.

Enthusiastic over the latest legal victories of the Feds, President Gil- more spoke freely of the outlook for the baby league. “There is nothing to prevent us from 1 those players we want, now,“ he said. We have the money and we shall go out and get the men. That's all there 16 to Frankly, that is one of the reasons why I am making my rounds. I shall confer with the team owners in all the cities where we have a franchise and my advice to them will be: ‘Go and get the men you want.’ We already have about 15 star players, who are now laying with National and American eague teams, under contract for 1915. It is not likely we shall ask any of these men to come with us this vear, however. “Still we shall place no obstacle in the way of any owner going out and signing the players they want to re- ort immediately if they so desire. efore the season closes we wili have all the men we want for next year signed up to contracts that will hold in any court in the land. As it is, we are content and willing to let the other fellows do the worrying.” Gilmore admitted that there “would likely be two changes in the Federal circuit next year.” He casually re- marked that Federal teams should do well in Cleveland and Cincinnati, and that Detroit will eastly support an- other team. . An He's Nervy, Anyhow. New York critics say that Umpire Ollie Chill is a little fellow with more spunk than knowledge of the playing rules, and that while nerve may be a good thing in some ways, one cannot hope to get by as an umpire on that alone.

ITH more than a fighting chance for the pennant, the Cardinals today are speeding East for the most important intersectional series any St. Louis club has undertaken since the spavined Browns made a bid for the American League title in 1908. Four games each in Philadelphia, Boston, Brooklyn and New York, two in Pittsburg and a like number in Chicago is the schedule mapped out for In the series at home the Cardinals acquired 17 victories in 25 games. A repetition of this sort of ball will surely keep the club in the thick of the pen- nant fight. Manager Huggins left St. Louis last night with every regular but Cozy Dolan in fit condition. Dolan remained behind but will start Friday evening for Phila- delphia. He had the stitches removed from the cut on his arm Thursday night and expects to be ready to play in the Boston series starting next Thursday. During Dolan’s absence Cruise and Riggert will alternate in left field, while it is barely possible that when Cozy re- turns Manager will take a much-needed rest and switch Magee to second base. Hug would profit by a short layoff before the New York series as the strain of keeping his team in the pennant fight has begun to tell on him. Withal he has played a plucky game and even though track sore, he still is a big factor in the ball game. Cards Must Trim Giants. To shorten the gap between their present position and first place the Car- dinals will be obliged to take the Giants’ measure in at least three of the four games on their trip. Although they have been winning with commendable persistency, the Cards have gained lit- tle ground because the Giants have found easy picking in Cincinnati and Pittsburg. McGraw’s pitchers have righted themselves after a slump early in July, and with Mathewson, Mar- quard and Tesreau going at top speed Huggins let him go! — — — — — — — — it will be hard to subdue the champions a _ — — — $13.75 FINAL $1375 Best Suit you ever had.

In 1902, the first year of the American League club in this city, the Browns gave Philadelphia a bang-up battle for the flag, run- ning second by a narrow margin. In 1908 the Browns again fur- nished the excitement, departing for their last swing around the cir- cle in first position. The team col- lapsed when the pitchers let down, returning in foltirth place, where it finished. Manager Huggins really believes, though, that he has a better pvitch- ing staff, as it now stands, than Mc- Graw. He has in Sallee one of the greatest moundmen in either league. Perritt has developed, while Doak and Perdue have looked good in recent outs. With this band of regulars and the additional prospects of Dan Griner coming through with an occasional good game, the Cardinals are well- equipped for the stretch drive in the torrid N. L. derby—-in fact better equipped than any other ciub in the league with the possible exception of Roston which has just finished a successful trip in the west. It is pleasing, too, to realize that Boston has quite a number of games yet to play with the Giants and it will undoubtedly be up to the gingery Braves to check the champions’ un- lawful speeding. Boston has come from a rank last to a bang-up fourth and is now making a determined bid for a higher berth. Stallings’ club has traveled at a terrific pace, how~ ever, and it hardly is reasonable to expect them to continue. The Cards feel secure of third place as absolutely their worst fate, this season; and, by remainin in the “money,” they figure that a fall series with the Browns will be attractive amd very remunerative. But there isn’t a man on this trip who hasn't a feeling deep down in hig heart that THE CARDI MAY BE A CONTENDER IN THE NEXT WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP. They are money-mad and can see nothing but a pennant. The Cards are oe chaperoned on this = by John Callahan, of North St. Louis, the diminutive mascot who brought the team such good luck. Next to Huggins, Callahan is the most important person on the trip. He just about has his own wee even though he hesitated risking his life in an upper berth last nignt. 2 44 Entrants in Five-Mile Swim; M. A.A. Enters 7 Heath, Previous Winner, Fa- vored Again This Vear, With Laubis Second. Chauncey Heath, of the Missouri Athletic Association, and one of seven entries nominated by the new organi- zation, is favored among the 44 men entered to win the five-mile swim in the Mississippi, Sunday afternoon.

Laubis and Heath will be the only scratch men in the list. Missouri U. Man Enters. The swim will have a touch of the university about it, as R. Maple Burns will swim under the gold and black of Missouri. The Columbian A. C., as usual, will make a bid for honors and has three contestants.

The young Pacific Coast players, E. Fottrell and B. L. Murray, after some- what erratic play, defeated William Rosenbaum of New York and E. H. Whitney of Boston in straight sets in the East doubles championships. The first set went to 20 games, principally through errors on the part of the young- er player and the steadiness and con- sistent playing of their opponents. The next set was also a deuce affair, but in the third, Rosenbaum and Whit- ney weakened and the Californians ran it off easily. | H. H. Hackett and F. B. Alexander of New York had a somewhat easy match with Hugh Tallant of New York and Wallace F. Johnson of Philadel- phia.

To the good service rendered the people of St. Louis by his support of the new charter, Mayor Kiel will soon have an opportunity to add an- other. hew government under the charter, which gives him greatly enlarged powers. As a leading advocate of the new charter, we presume the Mayor understands its spirit and purposes, and realizes his responsibilities as the first executive to put it into effect and exercise the new Mayoralty powers. The success of the new charter will depend largely upon the spirit in which its provisions are carried out. It will depend upon the character and capacity of the men chosen by the Mayor to organize the departments and direct their activities. The charter will be of little benefit to the people unless men of ability, force and honesty are se- lected to carry out its provisions and achieve the possibilities which reside in them. The new officers should be honest and compe- tent. They should be chosen for their special fit- ness to do the work required of them. They should be in hearty sympathy with the purpose which created and carried the charter, They should be devoted to the public welfare. They should be progressive. Whether the right men shall be selected depends upon Mayor Kiel. He can make or mar the ini- tial trial of the charter. If he resists the spoils- men and in the spirit of the charter’s efficiency provisions chooses the best available men for administrative offices the highest usefulness of the charter will be realized. If, on the other hand, he yields to personal and political influences in selecting appointees the new government will fall far short of justified expectations. It will be a failure. . We believe Mayor Kiel wants to do right and to serve the city. Never has a Mayor had greater opportunity. Strength of purpose and courage will accomplish the object. FISH THAT SING. The sea serpent crop has failed this summer (the only crop failure recorded under the grape- juice administration), but our worthy reise Commissioner Anderson, who is seeing Yellow- stone Park, makes up for the sea serpent's ab- sence by his report of singing fish. ‘The lid is off the geysers,” he writes. “I saw a glass moun- tain this morning, and fish that sing.” It oceurs to us that it might be well to bring the Park under stricter excise regulations, put the lid on the geysers at 1 a. m., and not permit the fish to sing in cafes with bar attachments. at "we. SUING THE COLONEL FOR LIBEL. Boss Barnes has instructed his counsel to bring a suit for libel against Boss Roosevelt. His case for $50,000 damages is brought within the jurisdiction in which Mr. Roosevelt resides, as defendants have a right to have suits against them brought. If it is ever tried, it will be tried before a jury summoned from the vicinage. No attempt will be made to drag Mr. Roosevelt to a distant, and possibly hostile, foreign jurisdic- tion for trial before a strange Court and perhaps prejudiced jurymen, where his defense would be conducted at a disadvantage and at large financial loss. The suit must be brought in Mr. Barnes’ own name. He is not so situated that he can cause it to be brought in the name of a powerful Government and direct that all its enormous re- sources shall be employed in securing a favorable result for the plaintiff. In other words, this suit will differ materially from the ill-starred libel suit Mr. Roosevelt him- sell instituted in a moment of pique some years ago in consequence of the publication of secret history illuminating the purchase of the French canal company’s claims and the seizure of the Pan- ama strip. However vexatious the sujt may prove to Mr. Roosevelt, he is sure of a square deal. The falling-out of these two great New York bosses and the trial—if it ever comes to trial— can bring only benefit to the public in its promise of valuable information concerning the aims, movements, relations and secret intrigues of each. It ought to prove even more interesting than the trial at Ishpeming. — a = a i i WHY HIGHER RATES ARE WANTED. Interstate Commerce Commission investigators report that ex-President W. C. Brown and other officials of the New York Central Railroad fattened their private bank accounts to the extent of several hundred thousand dollars during re- cent years by giving rebates to coal companies in which they were stockholders, and by using the credit of the railroad for the coal companies’ benefit, The New York Central and other Vanderbilt roads are among those which have been piteously pleading for permission to charge 5 per cent high- er freight rates. The text of the letter signed “Thy Joe,” whose publication started the train of events leading to the murder of Editor Gaston Calmette of the Paris Figaro, shows that it was of much greater political than social significance. It is easy to see how political developments might have come about making it most pertinent to print it. The standards of many of the best American newspapers would justify making it public in certain contingencies. In it the former Premier says he “demolished the income tax while appearing to defend it,” and the income tax issue is a critical one in France. Its appearance in M. Calmette’s paper gave personal offense, not be- cause of any specific references in it, but because its confidential contents as a whole showed the intimate relations existing at the date it was writ- ten between the distinguished Government off- cial and an unfaithful wife who afterward was to become the official’s own wife. The murder trial reached its climax with the appearance as a witness of the former Mme. Call- laux, whom the affinity had robbed of home and -husband—a tragedy for which the second Mme. Caillaux had been responsible prior to the tragedy for which she was on trial. She presented a pa- || thetic appealing figure in the temple of justice, this first Mme. Caillaux.

Whatever the effect on the Court, her story must lessen the world’s sympathy tor both M. Caillaux and the second Mme. Cail- laux. n sharp contrast are these two Mesdames Cail- uk. Compare the grievance of each. The wrongs of which Mme. Caillaux felt that she was a victim and which impelled her to kill congisted merely in acquainting the public in a vague way with the much deeper wrongs she had inflicted on her predecessor in the ex-Premier’s household, a A — — THE JONES INCIDENT. What President Wilson describes as an un- fortunate and ominous incident” in connection with the inauguration of the new national bank- ing system is closed by the withdrawal of the the Federal Reserve Board, Under the circumstances the action of the Pres- ident and Mr. Jones is wise. The attitude of Mr. Jones, revealed by his letter and his statement before the Senate committee, is unexceptional. The President makes clear that he selected Mr. Jones solely because he believed him to be the best available man for the work. In his letter to Mr. Jones acquiescing in the latter's withdrawal, Mr. Wilson makes a stirring protest against the injection of partisanship in the effort te organise a nonpartisan Federal re- serve system and against appeals to partisan prejudice and class antagonisms—*‘discriminations against particular classes of men“ — which sbould be discarded in the endeavor to create prosper- aus co-operation on a basis of mutual understand- ing and confidence. He appeals for a better tem- per in national counsels. Referring to the adverse report on the Jones nomination by a majority of the Senate Commit- tee on Banking and Ourrency, which he condemns as “unfair and untrue,” the President administers a deserved rebuke to denatore Reed and Hitch- . — He says: “The report ta signed by the minority (Repub- liceane) members of the committee and by two members of the majority (Democrats), who have usually acted with tem. The incident was unfortunate in more ways than one. It was unfortunate for those Senators who saw in the President's effort to organize the Fed- eral Reserve Board with the best available men, whose appointment would harmonize all classes and parties, an opportunity to bid for political capital by appealing to partisan prejudice and class antagonisms. It is unfortunate for Senators Reed and Hitcheock in that their gallery play emphasized their willingness, for personal gain, to hamper the Democratic administration and en- danger the success of one of its best measures. The President’s devotion to ideals—to the broad- er view of democratic government—may have led him into mistakes, but they are not to be com- pared with the mistakes of Democratic Senators who, for personal ends, try to block the best work of the Democratic administration in behalf of the people. When for the first time in more than half a century a Democratic administration has, with high purpose, persistently and successfully fought to carry out the will of the people by achieving great vital governmental reforms, there will be no gain for any Democratic Senator in the distinc- tion of having aided the enemies of reform at any point. IF WE HAD A PENNANT WINNER — If we should win a pennant— Would the Circuit Judges adopt the new rules? Would the lid be put on River Des Peres in Forest Park? Would the free bridge be promptly finished? Would Hotel Adolphus go right up? And same more? What about that opera house? Would the City get Beautiful? And the Mil Pops swell up? And the Smoke Abaters abate? And the Twelfth Congressional pure? And the knockers subside? Would the United Railways Co. pay its mill tax and the Terminal behave itself? Would everybody be good and get busy and whoop ’er up? Would St. Louis enter upon a new and glorified career? Certainly a pennant would help some. Anyhow, it would be worth winning on its own account. We are nnn. Root, brothers, root! 1 rT POLICE EFFICIENCY. It is not unjust to accept the estimate of Police Department efficiency made by the Police Depart- ment itself. On March 17 last, Acting Police Chief Gillaspy in instructions to District Captains ordered to be read at roll call, said: If your men were doing even ordinary police duty, many crimes would be prevented and ARRESTS MADE. In some precincts men are not even walking their beats. There must be an improvement all along the line,” N These statements were a part of the text of the famous General Order No. 217, issued in conse- quence of the blundering after the hold-up in which $10,615, inclosed in envelopes for the pay- ment of Brown Shoe Co. employes, was stolen on March 6. What evidence has the department since given of the “improvement all along the line” then declared to be necessary? Crimes which it was then said that ordinary police duty would prevent have continued. The arrests which police authority itself declared would result from the performance of ordinary police duty have not been made in spectacular cases. The bulletin which located them at the corner of Kraus and Malt streets on the evening of March 6 is still the last heard of the Brown Shoe robbers, The perpetrators of the F. W. Hanpeter payroll robbery on April 19 are still uncaught. For five days after his name had been printed as having shot a Terminal Association officer in the publicity of the Union Station, Edward Koenig, or King, went about the streets of the city and then saved the public humiliation by giving himself up. The department may have been marked by a great improvement since March 17, It may be highly efficient now in “ordinary police duty” as well as in the higher branches of community-pro- tection and thief-taking. What proof of it, how- ever, has been given in the cases that attract large public attention, that serve as object lessons on District get efficiency, improved or unimproved? — nomination of Thomas D.

By James corner looked around when Fraser finished his story. “Pursuits of that kind are a trifie dangerous, he said, quietly, but a man will walk on a very thin plank if there is gold at the other end.“ Fraser nodded. He had been recount- ing some of his adventures in connec- tion with a python-hunting expedition, and the little man was the first to make a comment. J never caught pythons,”’ 1's little bald-headed man in the he con- tinued, “but when I went out snaring fcebergs for the Manhattan Iceberg Syndicate I struck an experience or two. Icebergs are just as slippery as pythons— Say!“ interrupted Fraser, his face coloring slightly as he leaned forward: “you don’t think I spun that yarn out of gossamer, do you?“ “No, no.“ cried the little man, hur- riedly, “your story is more convincing than a Gatling gun. I was drawing a comparison. The python seems to be a particularly awkward animal to sub- jugate, but an iceberg possesses a de- gree of cussedness that makes its pur- suit and capture carry the same sensa- tion as your business. “I was introduced to the game way back in the early eighties when the big ice famine struck New York. Some- thing upset the calendar that year, and summer rushed down upon the country before they had harvested enough ice to cool champagne for the ‘Four Hun- dred.’ The Price of Ice Was Soaring. RICES hopped like a hungry grasshopper when he sights a green patch in a sand desert, and the man who could afford to buy three ounces of ice a day was in the class that habitate on the top rungs of the poverty escapes. J owned three steam tugs in those days, and as I was sitting on the deck one morning when the mercury was hit- ting the high grades without an effort, a long pale-faced fellow climbed over the side and came towards me. He car- ried a newspaper clipping and a roll of bills, and he handed them to me in that order. The bit of paper said that a Nova Scotian skipper had sighted an iceberg 200 miles east of Nantucket, but that didn’t interest me as much as the wad. What's the currency for?’ I ques- tioned. J represent the Manhattan Iceberg Syndicate,’ replied the stranger, ‘and 3 want you to tow that block of frozen @cean in as quick as you can get your hawsers on it.’ “You bet I stared at him. Drinking lukewarm stuff with the temperature at 95 was inculcating a lot of people with the loco bug in those days, and 1 thought I had butted into a case in the last stages. I tried to shoo him off the boat, but he wouldn’t go. I pointed out to him that an iceberg was as dangerous to meddle with as a crooked politician, besides being made of much more perishable material, but he wouldn't be put off. Finally I agreed to go out in search of the berg in con- sideration of a cash payment of $1000, which payment was to be increased to $2000 if the job of pulling the ice lump to the harbor appeared practicable. As this was left to my discretion I felt Francis } Dwyer. Pretty secure as we butted out into the Atlantic. We Find the Iceberg. 116 E found the berg all right. It VW was melting away quicker than the wad of a fool guy playing the ponies, and I kept praying hard for it to disappear altogether while that fellow was urging me to go in and clinch with it. He got excited when I contented myself with viewing the affair at a safe distance, and the fool wanted to take a boat and tie a hawser to a Pole that stuck up out of it at one end. “That pole puzzled me. It kept grow- ing taller as the pieces fell away from the main section, and on the second day it stood up like the mainmast of a sail boat. The berg performed a few acrobatic feats that would have been rather unhealthy for any boat that had it in tow, and the last one of these that she did gave us a bit of a shock. She split right down the center and there right before our eyes was a Spanish galleon that had been boxed up in that lump of ice like the kernel of a horse- chestnut! “You should have seen that long fellow when that old Noah’s ark came into view. He tore round the tug like a madman offering the crew fifty dollars a day if they were game to pull up alongside the berg in the small boats, and as it was calm as a mill pond three of them consented. What are you going to do?’ I asked as he clambered ,over the side. ‘Do you think you can launch the old tub?’ He lowered two axes into the boat, and then he turned round to me. ‘You just remember the terms of our con- tract,’ he said quietly. ‘I have put it down in writing that all the bergs we find are my property. If I’m not much mistaken this boat is one that com- prised the Spanish Armada that invaded England in the fifteenth century. The defeated fleet tried to get away round the north to Scotland, but they were all wrecked, and as this one is now my property I think you'll have a load of gold to tug to New York instead of frozen water.“ The Salvage Was $300,000. HE little bald-headed man remained a5 quiet for a few minutes, and Fraser grew impatient. ‘How did it end?” he asked. : “How?” repeated the little man irri- tably. Don't yon know that Providenc2 builds the nest of the blind bird? That lunatic that paid me a thousand dollars thinking he could drag icebergs in out of the Atlantic and sell them at 10 cents a pound in New York City sal- vaged $300,000 out of that frosen- up trea- sure chest, and the only piece that I got out of the hull is this little chunk of gold I wear on my fob!” He lifted the end of his chaiin and showed a Spanish doubloon that bore the head of King Philip who had fitted out his stately Armada when Queen Elizabeth ruled over England. Fraser was the first to break the si- lence. Say,“ he murmured, “do you think there are any more of those gon- dolas up there in cold storage?“ But the little man didn’t answer. A stout lady had signaled to him from the hotel lobby, and he was hurrying to- wards her as fast as his short legs would take him. (Copyright, 1914, by Shortstory Pub.

The Tango Face Spoils Woman’s Beauty; Selected Fiction Editor of Journal on Photography Says Women Take the Pastime Much Too Seriously, and Then Come Wrinkles. AVE you a tango face? H the glass and see. If you are numbered among the dancing der- vishes, American model, 1914, the Chances are that your face identifies you. The tango has been blamed for almost every conceivable mishap, from broken arches to broken home, but per haps the most portentous charge of all is now being brought against it. For on excellent authority the tango is ac- cused of spoiling the beauty of the American woman. Carl E. Ackerman, editor of the Photo- graphic News, is the person who calls attention to this tragic possibility. At the convention of the National Associa- of Photographers, who met recently in Atlanta, Ga., Mr. Ackerman declared that, even as the speed mania produced the auto face,“ the tango face“ has been forced on the American public by the craze for modern dancing. As proo? he adduced the fact that photographers find increasing difficutly in making sat- Look in — By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. smile, unmoved and meaningless. “Now, understand I am not opposed to dancing,”’ Ackerman declares. “I can’t do the tango myself, but I enjoy watching it and I think it an ex- cellent form of social diversion—taken in moderation. In the cities, especially, it establishes pleasant social melations between young men and women who would otherwise be deprived of them. The young women have no place at home to entertain their men friends, and the many dances give them a chance really to enjoy each other’s society. But women are taking the tango too seriously. They seem to want to do nothing else. All over the country we have had lunch tango and tea tango and dinner tango and supper tango, and now at some points I hear they’re intro- ducing the breakfast tango. That is certainly too much of a good thing.“ The real reason why many women tango dancers have such | cheeks, and finally by a wooden J _ -- & * for incidentals, shoes to match my costumes, a new hat, gloves, etc. That is, I paid for these things until I had used the $50, then charged - HELL LIke “THIS PHOTO ot ME ALRIGHT isfactory pictures of feminine tango- maniacs.

Walker. PART 1. R. POSSUM was hungry and he sat thinking where he could get a good meal without work- ing very hard when it suddenly occurred to him that he had not paid any visits to his friends in the woods in some time. Mr. Bear will certainly have a pan- try full of just the things I like if only he is awake. He is such a sound sleeper and takes such long naps that I am afraid he may not be up.“ So Mr. Possum trotted off to Mr. Bear’s house and knocked at the door. Not a sound could he hear, though he put his ear close to the door each time he knocked, then he went to the window and stood on tiptoes and peeped in. He could see just the tip end of Mr. Bear’s nose sticking up from the bed clothes, and when he listened very hard he could hear the sounds of loud breath. ing, so he knew, Mr. Bear was sound asleep, and it would be hard work to waken him. Mr. Possum stood some time thinking. Then he looked about, to make sure no one was in sight, and, walking very softly, he went to the back of Mr. Bear’s house to the pantry window and looked at it. He could see through the window pies — FRECKLE-FACE 2 — How to Remove Easily. ere’s a chance, Miss Freckle-face, to try a remedy for freckles with the guarantee of a reliable dealer that it will not cost you a penny unless it removes the freckles; while if it does give you a clear complexion the expense is trifling.

Mr. Possum tried the window and it opened a little; then he pushed it up and made a place large enough to get through, and in a minute he was inside the pantry, with the window closed. If he had left the window open I should not be able to tell you this story, but he didn’t, and that was the way he got into trouble. He listened to make sure Mr. Bear was still sleeping and from the sounds he heard he knew he was; then Mr. Possum tasted the cake; it was rather dry, because Mr. Bear was not a good housekeeper and left it on the shelf, in- stead of putting it in the cake box; but Mr. Possum was not fussy, so he ate all of it. Then he took a big piece of pie; it was mince, and if there was one thing more than another that Mr. Possum loved it was mince pie; so he ate all of it. Mr. Possum was not very careful about dropping the crumbs, just as little boys and girls sometimes forget and let crumbs fall on the floor. Well, that was the way Mr. Possum did, and just as he was trying to see what was on the top shelf he stepped on a bit of minced meat and dropped the pie, and over he went, hitting the pile of tins as he fell. Mr. Bear came out of his bed with a bound and listened. All was still, but he felt sure it was the sound of falling tins he had heard, and he started for his pantry, growling as he ran. He opened the pantry door and then he growled louder. “Who has been in here while I was —— — ddinaiaieee ll Hair Made Beautiful Beautiful hair, thick, fluffy, lus- trous and absolutely free from dan- druff is not so much a gift of nature as a matter of care and proper nourishment. Hair is like a plant— it will not grow healthy and beauti- ful unless it has attention and proper nutriment. Parisian Sage, daintily perfumed and easily applied, tones up and in- vigorates the roots of the hair, and furnishes the necessary nourishment to not only save and beautify the hair, but also stimulate it to grow long, heavy, soft, fluffy and radiant with life. When used frequently and rubbed into the scalp, it will simply work wonders. Just one application stops itching head, removes dandruff and cleanses the hair of all dust and excessive oil. Since Parisian Sage, which’ can be obtained from Wolff-Wilson Drug Co., or at any drug or toilet counter, never disappoints, it is no longer necessary for.any woman to be humiliated because of thin, streaky, faded, lifeless or unattractive hair —and as you know, pretty hair, more than anything else, helps you to re- tain a youthful appearance.—ADY, | What? No Cure for Bridge? A CCORDING to a consensus of alien- ists and neurologists in recent con- ference at Chicago all psychic aberrations are due to physical causes manifested physiologically by an excess of red corpuscles in the blood. The sec- ondary causes are many and various, the chief in our country being alcohol- ism, crime, vagabondage and bridge. Being of physical origin, they are sub- ject to physical remedy. Farm labor will cure alcoholism. Improved prisons will cure criminality. Exciting occupr- tion will cure vagabondage. We are told, however, that no member of the conference could recommend a cure for bridge. Here is a call for governmental ex- perts, or for those of some highly en- dowed institution for original research, to apply to high society the investiga- tions so often tried upon denizens of the slums. A physical cure for bridge should be discovered if for no other cause than that of increasing the sum of human knowledge. Tango has been tried, but is only partially successful. Suffragette parading is equally inadequate. Dish- washing is out of the question. Is there too much red blood in bridge players for any cure to reach? asleep and eaten all my good things?” he said, hunting all around for the thief. : He looked behind the door, he looked back of the flour barrel and the mo- lasses barrel, for Mr. Bear was very fond of molasses and bought it by the hogshead, but no sign could he find of the thief. „He got away,” growled Mr. Bear, “but he closed the window after him. I was too slow in getting up. I'll fix that window this time so no one Will get in.“ ; So Mr. Bear got a hammer and some nails and nailed down the window so it could not be raised. Then Mr. Bear closed the dcor and went back to bed and was soon asleep again, breathing so loudly that Mr. Possum from his hiding place heard him and looked out. But where do you think he was hid- ing all this time? You never will guess, so I will tell you. He was hiding in the molasses barrel. He was scared I can tell you, when he felt the cold, sticky stuff, but he knew it would be worse for him if he made any cry and Mr. Bear found him so he kept still until he heard Mr. Bear sleeping soundly, and then he crawled out. And such a sticky fellow as Mr. Pos- sum was!

Then, as he let Mrs. Jarr and Mrs. Mudridge-Smith out and saw them down the stairs and safely on their way to consult the necromancers, Mr. Jarr whistled. And that wretch Dinkston came softly down from an upper flight of stairs, where he had loitered until the coast was clear. “Where are they going?’ asked Mr. Dinkston. “Old Man Smith got enough courage to give his bride a bawling-out about something, or else he’s shut off the financial backing. Anyway she can’t understand it; and she's gone to con- sult a fortune teller!“ What bookstore is she making for?“ asked Mr. Dinkston eagerly. ‘“‘When a bookie gives her the once-over and her wearing all those Shepards, he’ll sure believe he’s next to a good Thirty-eight and he'll sting her for a grand at least. ‘ “What kind of chatter is that?“ ask - ed Mr. Jarr. Are you making it up as you go along?’ „Me?“ asked Dinkston in surprise. No, dut in the course of an eventful career I have been a dealer in desti- nies myself. I only spoke the language of the cult. Let me explain. A “book store, or a ‘library,’ is the cant term for a fortune teller’s office or studio. A bockie' is a fortune teller—yes, I know there are racetrack bookies, or book- makers, too.“ “And ‘Shepards’ and ‘Thirty-eights’ and grands?“ asked Mr. Jarr. ““Shepards are diamonds,’’’ replied Mr. Dinkston; “A ‘Thirty-eight’ is u ‘come on,’ a client—a victim. A ‘grand’ is a thousand dollars. And by the way, a ‘leaf’ is a hundred dollars.“ “I didn’t know it was a crook’s game. Let’s follow the women folks and warn them,“ said Mr. Jarr. “Don’t worry,” said Mr. Dinkston, “the ‘bookies’ don't work slow but sure. Besides, the ladies may only be going to consult an old ‘shut eye.’ That is what they call a 50-cent card reader or palmist that doesn’t graft the ‘thirty- eights.’ ’’ — A Passing Episode. ACK,” he shouted hoarsely, as the passing crowd paused and watched with breathless attention. Nack!“ he shouted, again and agaiz, until the veins stood out like whipcords on his grimy face. He touched a lever and a roar like thunder re-echoed through the street as the coal man dumped his two-horse wagonload of coal down the apartment house chute, Cause of the 1 ERE, what's all this row about?” Why. this woman is collecting money for the peacé society, and when I re- fused to te she knocked me | down,” explained fhe meek-looking man. | WF se oie 3 asked the copper, breathlessly. | „And if I give you a dime what will you do with it?” count promise you, boss.

EVERAL ' farmers were sitting around the cracker barrel in the country store, telling how the potato pests had got into their crops. Said one: ‘Them pests ate my whole crop in two weeks.“ Then another spoke up: “They ate my crop in two days, and then sat around on the trees and waited for me to plant more.“ Here a sales agent for a seed house broke in: „Woll, boys,“ he said, that may be 50, but F'll tell you what I saw in our own warehouse.
