An insistent sun burned through the menacing clouds and there was only a slight threat of showers from the southwest. The infield and outer gardens were bone dry and hard. Rudolph Against Bender. The Bostons sent their slow-ball pitch- er, Dick Rudolph, to the pitching em- placements to shell the Athletics out of their home defenses. The American League selected the Indjan, Bender, to pick off the Boston invaders with his fast ball. Umpire Dinneen gave the decis- ions behind the plate and Umpire Klem on the bases. Umpire Byron was in left field and Umpire Hilde- brand in right field. Shibe Park was choked to capacity long before game time. Three and four times the regular seat prices were offered for tickets and the de- mand at these figures exceeded the supply.

The “irst in line for seats in this unreserved sec- tion had waited more than 40 hours for the gates to open. Several wom- en stood in line since dayoreak. Mundreds viewed the contest from temporary stands erected on the roofs of houses that overlovuk the ball field walls. Petting favored the Athletics at 2 t¢ 1 and 9 to 5. when the two teams came or the field for batting and fielding practice. Preliminary field play was snappy and scintillating. The work of tre Boston player, Deal, who substi- tuted at third base for Smith, who broke his leg this week. was keenly watched. The telephone battle between Connie Mack and George Stallings, the Boston manager, over the use of Shibe Park for practice and other warlike Itncidents which intensified the interest of the baseball world yesterday, apparently were forgotten in the enthusiasm that held the followers of the game as the hour for staging the contest approached.

UNSETTLED WEATHER TO CONTINUE, WITH SHOWERS Once Kaiser, Now King; Schwarz Becomes Black; It Happened in London Correspondence of the Associated Press. A ing name tends to make its possessor so unpopular both in a business and a social way in London that there has been a rush of British-born and naturalized German citizens in England to the courts for new names. Some of the changes on the court records are: Schloss to Castle, Schwartz to Black, Klussman to Maclaren, Rosenthal to Rondeny, Howitz to Howard, Koénig to Kingsley, Dun- kelbuhler to Duncan, Scharlieb to Shirley, Weischenck to Wynne, Kuss to .Cuss. Brueggemeyer to Bridges and Stohwusser to Stowe. But the most tactful shift was by the man who traded Kaiser for King. Some Germans and Austrians, not naturalized, have changed their names without legal formality, and an “order in council’ has been issued that such persons must, after Oct. 12, resume their former names. The order says that, until further notice, no “alien enemy” will be permitted to change his name without a special permit from the Secretary of State. This order is aimed at German spies. “Gentlemen” Over Age Limit in Troop Formed by Woman LONDON, Oct. °2.—Enrollment in the Sportsman’s Battalion to date totals about 1000. It is in many ways an unique corps. It was suggested and financed by Mrs. Cunliffe Owen, and is in all probability the only battalion tu be raised by a woman. It is certainl, the only battalion in the British army in which the age limit has been especially extended by the au- tnorities. The recruiting posters read “The Sporteman’s Battalion is a corps of gentlemen up to 45 years of age.’ Payment by the recruit for his equip- ment fs optional. The training and equip- ment. are those required by an ordi- nary infantry company. Among the well-known men already enrolled as privates are Sir Norman Pringle, Sir William Wallace, Sir Robert Newman end two sons of peers, who have not yot pessed the medicai examination.

Movie Man Finds Battle e Not Dram | LONDON, Oct. eet sa, of the Daily News at Antwerp gives an. interesting interview with Cherry Mear- | ton, describing some of his experiences | in ‘“filming’’ the war. He was in Alost during the German bombardment. He said: “I tried to get pictures of shells ex- ploding, but it is next to useless, for they hardly show on the film. In the trenches, too, it is useless and rather brutal, it seems to me, to try to get pictures. For instance, we who have seen men die from bullets and shrapnel, know quite well that they simply slip forward a little, and the whole thing is’ finished. They do not fling their rifte in the air and die in a dramatic pos- ture. Pictures that show that can be known at once as faked."’ “We Were Merely Right,” Says Dr. Jordan of Peace Efforts STANFORD UNIVERSITY, tal., Oct. 9.—*‘The present war is a culmination of all the horrors, blunders and crimes of the war sygtem,” said David Starr Jor- dan, chancellor of Stanford University, yesterday, in the first address delivered since his return from Europe, where he was sent in the interests of world peace. Referring to the last peace conference, Dr. Jordan remarked: “We were not successful. We were merely right. We can only look at the newspapers and see accounts of battles as great as Waterloo, Sedan—battles :n which nothing is done except to fill nine-mile trenches with dead or to ef- fect a two-mile advance.”’ Ay ee T , THE TEMPERATURES.

But war conditions eave made it necessary that competent men be advanced on purely military merits. The situation is particularly serious a* the lists indicate, the less of officers has been terrific. Here the pick of the sergeants are already being given shoulder straps. Where the men are to come from to officer the new volunteer army cY 1,000,000 is a matter of serious con- cern to the War Office.

This means rapid prumo- tion for those of military § talent. Further promotions and shake-ups will follow under the test of tire. England has nothing to take the place of the American military pre- paratory schools founded on the West Point model. The big «chools, such as Eton, Harrow and the like. as Oxford and Catnbridge, have their students’ corps, but this is more or less apart from daily rou- tine. It is much as if certain. Ameri- for can college students belonged ‘> «he national guard and did a fixed amount of theoretical study asa side Before getting their commis- sions the student officers have had to take a course in the regular gser- vice schools. The result is that much depandence is placed on the character of the men in the ranks. No less than 1444 officers of the British army have been killed, wounded or counted among the missing in the fighting to date. This is stown by the lists of casualties among officers, already made public and tabu- lated according to regiments of other commands, bringing the compilation up to Sept. 2.

ON THE BATTLE FRONT, Thursday, via Paris, Friday, 12:41 a. m.—Detachments of cavalry of the Germans and the allies met today on the frontier of Belgium, maneuvering for a position to outflank each other. The Germans had thrown brigade after brigade in front of the allies, but these found adversaries equal in force. The flanking operations are ren- dered difficult. owing to the proximity of the sea, and the day passed without issued by the War Office last very serious encounters. The great plateau near Lille and Armentiers favors cavalry work, but farther north the ground becomes marsby, although it is interspersed with excellent roads. The allied leaders appear to be satisfied with conditions and ready to meet any offensive move by the Germans. Some distance farther south, near Roye, sharp artillery and infantry fighting continues. At other points along the battle line the opposing forces today maintained their positions, contenting themselves with desultory firing.

Germans in Strong Foree. The Times’ Belgian correspondent in a dispatch dated Wednesday says: ‘That the Germans are in strong force is evident from their fierce offensive along the river Scheldt, which resulted in their crossing the river at three points. I watch dense clouds of smoke rising from the Naptha works at Schoo- naerde, which were fired by the Ger- mans the previous night. The damage in Schoo- tmerde was very great. Today's fighting was bitter and determined and both sides suffered heavily. The German losses especially must be important, for they heid the bridge over the Scheldt, -logse to the entrenched Belgians,- and the mitrailleuses were in common use. “In Southern Belgium the small town of Warneton, close to Ypres, has been razed by the enemy.”’ ~oncerning the operations around Ant- werp, the correspondent of the Dally Telegraph in Belgium, under date of Wednesday, says: “The Germans today succeeded in. forc- & point between Schoonaerde and Higen- em, They did this under cover of a heavy early morning fog. “During the last few days the Ger- mans have brought up large reinforce. ments.

The defenders, however, were in very stinall numbers and, after accounting for a few of the advancing infantry, they withdrew to the main Belgian lines. “Simultaneously the Germans com- menced an action all along the river- side line, extending from Termonde to Uytherden, a few miles east of Grem. bergen. They met with a vigorous de- fense in which both the artillery and infantry participated and at one point they were repulsed by a bayonet charge. Again the enemy advanced, this time in augmented strength and succeeded in breaking through. “During the morning the Germans brought up several batteries of heavy guns. These outranged the Belgian ar- tillery and forced its retirement, but it continued to harass the advancing in- fantry. It was noticeable that a Taube aeroplane directed the German opera- tions. “As soon as it became known that the Germans had crossed the river, the Bel- gians brought up troops to hold them back under cover of batteries, which were shelling the enemy’s main Posi- tion on the opposite side. 3 Belgian Guns Drawn b D ° At 1:30 this afternoon x Wier ten: tested battle was engaged along the whole line. The mitralflleuses played a considerable part in the fighting.

This was flercely contested by tke Belgians ar two guns were destroyed by shrapnel midway across. One battery, however, succeeded in forcing a passage. It was quickly brought into action and ocon- centrated a vigorous fire on the area held by the Belgians to the east of Berlaerre. “After several hours of fierce fighting the enemy brought up strong reinforce- ments from the south. They threw large bodies of infantry over the pon- toon bridge, and, although many were swept away .by mitrailleuses, a consid- erable number. succeeded in passing over. They occupied houses in Ber laerre and from these vantage points kept up a rifle fire on the Belgtan in- fantry. “At the moment of sending this dis- patch the battle is still in progress. Although they have not yet got any large body of men across the Scheldt, the Germans are evidently making a determined advance with a» view, no doubt, of approaching Antwerp from bridge and at 6 o'clock this morning the southwest.” Ships at Antwerp Docks Sunk: Rubens Works Hidden; Special Ca te the Post-Dispatch » and New York Werld.

PETROGRAD, Oct. 8 via London.— Russian observers of the operations along the Prussian frontier express the opinion today that the Germans, who were driven back during the fighting of the last three days in this field of op- erations, are now concentrating their forces in three defensive positions to the west and northwest of Suwalki in a desperate effort to protect Marggra- bowa, an important railroad center 15 miles north of Lyck, which commands lines of communication in all directions and the loss of which would, it is ar- gued here, preclude further German ac- tivity in this region. In spite of the difficulty of attack on account of the chain of lakes and the wretched roads, the Russian assaults day and night have, according to Petro- grad newspapers, shaken the German resistance at this tmportant point. The enemy, in a movement amounting to a retreat, has withdrawn his siege guns and other artillery from Bakalarzewo almost as far as Marggrabowa (Baka- larzewo is 10 miles northeast of Marg- grabowa and 15 miles west of Suwalki). The military expert of the Novoe Vremya says that in this move from Bakalarzewo, the Germans have lost their last trump in the game along the East Prussian frontier. The capture of Austrian intrench- ments at Przmysl is regarded here as the most important step up to the pres- ent time in the series of actions in this vicinity, to which alternate bombard- ments and gradual advances along a series of fortified trenches have given the character of a regular siege.

Government to Move German Liner From Bar Harbor, Me. WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.—The Ger- man liner Kronprinzessin Cecelle probably will be removed by the Government from Bar Harbor, Mée., where she found refuge from British cruisers at the outbreak of the Kuro- pean war to avoid injury from ice during the coming winter. She will be taken to New York as it has been represented that the vessel can make the cruise without going be- yond the ¢gerritorial waters of the tinited States, thus escaping the pos- sibility of seizure by British war vessels. If this can be done the State De- partment prebably will advise the court officer in custody of the vesrel, which is under libel, to make tne transfer. The State Department ts not yet ready to commit itself, how- ever, to a recognition of the right o* the British to seise the ship under her pecullar status even if she tis taken outside of the three-mile limit.

The epposition took the form of a remonstrance agains® Japan’s submitting to any form of lim- itation at the hands of Great Britain as to what she could or could not do in the war with Germany. ; It was not in keeping with Japan's national] pride, the speakers said, that Japan should be kept from the South Seas, or any other part of the Pacific Ocean, where her interest as a nation at war might call her. One member of the opposition wanted to know whether Japan had been con- sulted about the agreement made be- tween Great Britain, France and Rus- sia not to conclude peace without the consent of the others. “No,” said Baron Kato, “our Govern- ment has in no way been consulted. The Anglo-Japanese treaty of alliance provides for consultation only with re- gard to Far Eastern affairs. This, perhaps, was the reason why we were not taken into council.”’ The member persisted: “Belgium, which is engaged in the war, is also out of this agreement. Am I mistaken in thinking that Japan hes been treated as being on a par with Belgium?” The Foreign Minister replied that he did not think that such was the case. The member then concluded by ex- pressing the wish that Japan would have a powerful voice when the time came for the conclugion of peace, #0 that she might reap good fruits. Subsequent to the adjournment of the Diet it was announced that Great Britain had informed Russia and France that the agreement as to fu- ture peace must not be regarded as modifying in any way the terms or ob- ligations of the alliance with Japan.

TTACKS BECOMING HALF-HEAF ST. ‘LOUIS POST-DISPATOH. ee Lt British Official Report RITISH WITNESS DESCRIBES BITS OF PHTING IN. FRANCE Official Report Declares Germans Will Not Face Heavy Fire When There Is Not Direct Per- sonal Leadership — British Aviators Have Averaged 2000 Miles a Day, Spending 1400 Hours in Arr. By Associated Press. LONDON, Oct. 9, 11 A. M—The Official Bureau today gives an eye- witness’ narrative of operations in France, supplementing that made public on Oct. 3. It follows: “Wednesday, the 30th of September, merely marked another day's progress in the gradual development of the situation and was distinguished by no activity beyond slight attacks by the enemy. There was also artil- lery fire at intervals. “One of our airmen succeeded in dropping nine bombs, some of which fell on the enemy’s rolling stock collected on the railway at Laone. Some of the enemy’s front trenches were found empty at night, but nothing much can be deduced from this fact, for they are frequently evacuated in this way, no doubt to prevent the men in the back lines from firing on their eomrades in front of them. French Aviator Drops Bombs on Troops Near Station. “Thursday, Oct. 1, was a most perfect autumn day and the most peace- ful since the two forces became engaged on the Aisne. There was only desultory gunfire. During the night the enemy made a few new trenches and a French aviator dropped one bomb on the railway station and three bombs on the troops massed near it. “The weather on Friday, the second, was very misty in the early hours and it continued hazy until late in the afternoon, becoming thicker again at night. The Germans were driven out of a mill, which they had occu- pied as an advanced post, their guns and machine guns which supported it being knocked out one by one by well-directed artillery fire from a flank. During the night they made the usual two attacks on the customary spot in our lines, and, as on previous occasions, were repulsed. “Up to the Sept. 21, the air mileage made by our airmen since the beginning of the war amounted to 87,000 miles, an average of 2000 miles a day, the total equaling nearly four times the circuit of the world. The total time spent in the air was 1400 hours. “There are many points connected with the fighting methods of either side that may be of interest." The following description was given by a bat- talion (1000 men) commander who has been at the front since the com- mencement of hostilities and has fought both in the — and behind en- trenchments. ‘Germans Do Not Face Heavy Fire Without Leadership. “It must, however, be borne in mind that it only represents the ex- periences of a particular unit. It deals with the tactics of the enemy's infantry: “The important points to watch are the heads of valleys and ravines and woeds, especially those on the sides of hollow ground and all dead ground to the front and flank. The German officers are skilled in leading troops forward under cover in closed bodies, but once the latter are de- ployed and there is no longer the direct, personal leadership, the men will not face heavy fire. Sometimes the advance is made in a series of lines with the men well opened out at intervals of five or six paces; at others it is made in lines with the men almost shoulder to shoulder. But it is followed in all cases by supports in close formation. The latter either waver when the front is checked or crowd on to it in moving forward under the orders of their officers and the mass forms a magnificent target. “Prisoners have described the fire of our troops as pinning them to the ground, and this is certainly borne out by their actions. British Take 400 Prisoners After Losing Only 70 Men. “When the Germans are not heavily entrenched no great losses are incurred in advancing against them by methods in which the British army has been instructed. For instance, in one attack over fairly open ground against about an equal force of infantry sheltered in a sunken road and in ditches we lost only 10 men killed and 60 wounded, while more than 400 of the enemy surrendered. ’“After some men had been killed each side had the support of a bat- tery of artillery, but the fight for superiority of infantry fire took place at a range of about 700 yards and lasted only half an hour. By this time the Germans were wavering. Some of them put up white flags, but-others went on firing and our men continued to do the same. “Byentually, a large number of white flags, improvised from handker- chiefs, shirts, white biscuit bags, etc., were exhibited all along the line and many of the men hoisted their helmets on their rifles. “In the fighting behind entrenchments, the Germans endeavor to gain ground by making adcances in line at dusk or just before dawn and then digging themselves in, in the hope, no doubt, that they may eventually get 80 near as to be able, as during maneuvers, to reach the hostile trenches in a single rush. German Sharpshooters Often Found in Trees. “They never have succeeded in doing this against us. If by creeping up in dead ground, they do succeed in forwarding their position by night, they are easily driven back by fire in the morning. A few of the braver men sometimes remain behind at close ranges and endeavor to inflict losses by sniping. Sharpshooters also are often noted in trees or wriggling about wntil they get good cover. “The remedy is to take the initiative and detail men te deal with the ‘enemy's sharpshooters. : “Few night attacks have been made against us.

LONDON, Oct. 9.—The correspondent of the Telegraph, in the northweet of France, sends the following: “Refugees reaching the coast today from Arras report that the Germans Wednesday shelled the town, ruined the ancient belfry of the ancient Hotel de Ville (town hall) and sent several! shells into the cathedral. Whether the shell fire damaged Rubens’ picture “The De- scent from the Cross,”’ and other works of art, can not be learned. The wrecked belfry was the greatest ornament of the town. “There has been ‘ighting around Arras for several days. An enormous Ger- man force gathered on the plain east of Arras ‘ast Saturday.

Associated Press ‘Artillery saves @ wounded Correspondence of the BERLIN, Sept. trumps German officer interviewed by the Tage- biatt. “Our German shelis are wonders. addition to their destructive effect, moral effect of their detonation ‘s plain- ly to be observed. The enemy is not a4 little affected by the dull, uncanny noise. The showing of our field howitz- ers is a complete success. They are actually equal to the heaviest field- pieces of the French, the Rimailho (15.5- centimeter) howitzers. The French shells are an effective projectile, except that they do not always explode. “In our advances we have had oppor- tunity to observe on the French dead and wounded the effect of our shells, and it was very great. At the begin- ning of the war the percussive point of our projectiles is said to have lain too high, and it is interesting to note that we first learned of this from letters captured from the French. French Shoot Well. “Tt must be said that the French can- noneers shoot extraordinarly well. They keep a sharp watch, open fire as soon as they see dust rising, even at great distances, where they can reckon only on moral effect. They must also have excellent information at their disposal Their ammunition supply is well looked after. A cessation of fire because of lack of ammunition almost never oc- curs. This is the more remarkable be- cause of their system of firing, in which they seek out an area in which they assume the enemy to be present and simply deluge it with their fire. “Our heavy artillery has become tlie terror of the enemy, and the appearance of the ‘growler’ (the 16 4-5-inch mortar) is always joyfully welcomed by our troops. Its effect is fearful. I have seen two massive walls of a house pene- trated by it. The detonation breaks al! the windows in the vicinity. Where it strikes, the enemy are thrown to the ground by the air pressure. The bodies are terribly mangled and covered with a grayish-blue dust. Although our heavy artillery has no protective shield, it has repeatedly taken part in battles with direct fire and played a decisive part. “When our fire is effective, the French simply abandon their guns. If it is less effective, one notices that the guns are pulled out of the line of fire, while the ammunition wagons are left standing. They often succeed in limbering up with extraordinary quickness and getting into another position further back. The French fieldpiece, both as regards ef- fectiveness and the readiness with which it can be handled, must be considered good.”’ is oo ¢ in this war,’ He continues: Ln the American Red Cross Workers Sent to Germany and Austria THE HAGUE, Oct. 8 via London, Oct. 9.—Arrangements were made today by Henry Van Dyke, American Minister to the Netherlands, for a special train for the transportation from Rotterdam to their destination of the American Red Cross ambulance units who will la- bor in Germany and Austria.

MUNICH, Sept Weapons exhibited 7l.—Among the in the vestibule of the Munich military museum, there are two short iron arrows which were thrown on the German troops by Frencii airmen. They are u new weapon in modern warfare. The wounds inflicted by these arrows are described in a re- port by Assistant Surgeon Dr. Johann Volkmann to the Suciety of Physicians of Stuttgart. in which he says: “Wounds caused by these arrows are different from thcee caused by rifle fire, grenades, shrapnel shells and the bayonet, though they do not show any great differentiation from ordinary stab weunds.”’ A soldier wounded by such an arrow tells the following story. “Sept. ll, about 6 in the afternoon while our regiment was resting, tw» French aviators passed over us abou: 120 to 1500 meters high. Suddenly 1! felt a smarting pa‘n in my right foox jist above the heel. When I looked at my foot I found an arrow sticking in it. “IT pulled it out at once. Twelve of my comrades had been hit by arrows of the same kind. One man was injured li: both legs. Another's foot was nailed to the ground, and an arrow went t:rough the cheek and mouth of an- other.

As far as possible, everybody crept under a wagon in order to shelter himeeif.” From other that about & reports it wes learned! arrows came down, making 18 hits.

The arrows have points ending in « pin of pressed steel, 10 centimetres (+ inches) long and 8 millimetres (.31 of an inch) thick. The lower part of the ar- row is solid and tapered to a needie- point, sist only of a frame of four thin blades, so that the transverse section view shows a star-shaped figure. Owing to the reduction of metal at both ends, the arrows come whis- pointing forward, and owing to the speed of the aeroplanes, they have a large range, which in one case extend- ed over the space occupied by four com- panies. Each arrow weighs 16 grammes, so it is hardly possible to carry many of them, in addition to the other necer- sary things needed on aeroplanes. Therefore, a truly effective bombard- ment is impossible.

ABERDDEEN, Scotland, Oct. 9.—Sto- ries of the experiences of British officers and men at the front are now Coming to friends in this country giving vivid glimpses of the hardships, the heroism and the lighter side of the war. Some of these have appeared in the Aberdeen Journal. One of them, written by an officer in the Royal Artillery, is as fol- lows: “Ll can, of course, tell you nothing of our movements, nor where we are.

Oh! for another i(0,000 of our men: they are splendid.” From Sapper Mugridge there comes the following picture of the men under fire. and a fine tribute to the officers. “Tne soldiers take everything quite coolly.

The men, too, seem pieased to think that they are doing their duty to the officers.” “ Harold Ashton tells a curious story which brings to memory the closing tragedy of “‘Macbeth,"’ when Birnam Wood did move to Dunsinane: , ‘In the Forest of Crecy a force we French and British soldiers transformed — themselves into a ‘walking wood’ and rolled back the enemy. ish alike—swarms of them—set about the wood with axes and knives and saws and even sabers, and had a wide area of it down in next to no time, “Line after line of infantry. each man armed with a thickly foliaged branch. moved forward in close order toward the enemy, whilst behind, amid the lopped tree tyunks. our artillery fixed themselves with their machine guns and the very businesslike 13-pounders to cov- er the ‘wood’ as it moved forward. “The attack which followed—rapid, fierce, and as bold as anything that bas been done in this huge campaign--won all the success it merited. It came off trumps. wood soon showed that there was than umbrage in the texture of snaried flame and spat bullets, wiiiet overhead the shells of the French and British artillery sped screaming to their mark.’ ‘ae Breckinridge and 20 Army Officers Return From Europe NEW YORK.

WADE EXPLAINS HIS PLAN St. Louis Banker Meets Reserve Board Members and Other Financiers at Capital. WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.—Plans for the proposed cotton loan fund,of $150,000,000 were up for discussion today by a com- mittee of the Federal Reserve Board and Festus J. Wade of St. Louis and other bankers. Details of the plan, drawn up by Mr. Wade to relieve the cotton crisis, were laid before the board committee by him. Gov. Hamlin, Paul M. Warburg and W. P. G. Harding are the members of the committee. It was believed that Wade and the other visiting bankers would be received later in the day by President Wilson, who approves the proposed pool. Mr. Wilson is not inclined to believe that the loan of the $150,000,000 to cotton planters would cause danger of a ‘“‘cot- ton corner,” for he thinks subscriptions to the pool will be widely enough dis- tributed to prevent anything of this kind. Serious Stage Yet to Come. He is of the opinion that the cotton crisis can not be fully met as the war is entirely responsible for it and until the conflict is ended the market for cotton will be greatly limited. The President roints out that the most serious stage of the situation is yet to come, as ex- cept in Texas the crops have not been gathered. Wade's plan provides that the fund be formed by subscriptions from na- tional and state banks and trust com- panies, merchants and manufacturers in all parts of the country. A large firm, aided by an advisory committee of bankers and cotton men, is to have charge of the pool. It is proposed that at least 100 finan- cial centers be called on to subscribe, to furnish storage facilities for sur- plus cotton and to issue uniform nego- tlable warehouse receipts which will be used as collateral. Banks in various sections of the South will be desig- nated as agencies of the syndicate to handle the loans. Security Provided. To each institution making a ioan will be given the notes of the borrow- ers together with the warehouse re- ceipt and insurance on the cotton in favor of the loaning bank. The loaning bank would obtain the money for forwarding the notes and warehouse receipts to the nearest agency of the syndicate, which would rediscount the notes and reimburse itself by drawing on the syndicate. It is planned that loans shall be made payable one year after date, or earlier, at the borrower’s option. The agency bank is to have the right of extending the loan six months, and for another six months with the consent of the syndicate managers. An interest rate of 7 per cent a year is proposed. i. Joint British-American Cotton Val- orization Plan Suggested. LONDON, Oct. 9.—Sir Charles Wright Macara, president of the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners and Manufac- turers, has suggested a joint valoriza- tion effort by the British and the Amer- ican Governments to take over the sur- plus raw cotton in the United States and create raw cotton prices now and in future. The suggestion was made yesterday at a luncheon attended by Warl Grey, former Governor-General of Canada; Sir George H. Reid, High Commission- er for Australia, and representatives of all other English possessions, who plan to establish an institute of industry and commerce under which England will be able to foster trade between the differ- ent parts of the empire. By creating a cotton reserve, 3S'r Charles said, the two Governments could protect from appalling disaster millions of people engaged in the grow- ing, handling and manufacturing of cotton, with the possibility of no ulti- mate loss. Such a project, according to the speak- er, might involve $300,000,000 to $350,000,- 000. Busy Bee Candy Special. Pecan Marshmallow Jumbles, 10c box.

The Gecision was given in the case of Daniel GQGillls, who was tried and convicted of rioting in the military court at Butte. The Court refused to grant to Gillis a writ of habeas corpus and ordered that he be dealt with according to law, hold- fing that his trial and detention by the militia were void. , The Court held that, while the Gov~ rnor is authorized to detail the mili- . to suppress insurrection, neither the wovernor nor the militia can lawfully punish for insurrection or other viola- tiens of the law. WOUNDED PRIEST IS RECOVERING RAPIDLY Potice Have Been Unable as Yet to Find Man Said to Have Done the Shooting. The condition of the Rev. Father Ni- cola Casu, assistant pastor of the Ghurch of Our Lady Help of Chris- Hans, who was shot yesterday morning in the home of Natalia de Mosure, in the rear of 10198 Franklin avenue, was @reatly improved this morning. It was stated at St. Mary’s Infirmary that he would quickly recover. Police of the Carr Street District have mot been able to find John Pensichi, with whom the woman has lived, and who, she eaid, shot the priest. The woman and the priest state that she called him to her rooms. The priest said that the woman was quarreling with Pensichi and that when she called to him he went to the rooms for the purpose of settling the quarrel. The woman in one statement said that she called the priest to eject two women from her rooms, and in another state ment said she called him to discuss church affairs.

Now, Mr. ~« Mrs. Dyspeptic, jot this down: vape’s Diapepsin digests everything, ~aving nothing to sour and upset you. No difference how badly your stomach is disordered, you get happy relief in five minutes, but what pleases you most is that it strengthb- ens and regulates your stomach so you can eat your favorite foods with- out fear. Most remedies give you re- lief sometimes—they are slow, but not sure. Diapepsin is quick, posi- tive and puts your stomach in a healthy condition so the misery won't come back. You feel different as soon as Pape’s Diapepsin comes in contact with the stomach—distress just van- ishes—your stomach gets sweet, no gases, no belching, no eructations of undigested food, your head clears and you feel fine. Put an end to stomach trouble by getting a large fifty-cent case of Pape’s Diapepsin from any drug store. You realize in five minutes how needless it is to suffer from in- digestion, dyspepsia or any stomach disorder.—ADV. : Four Elected After Debate on Plan to Reduce Number.

By Associated Press. WaSHINGTON, Oct. of 10 cents a ton in the freight rates on coal, proposed by the southwestern railroads, was filed today with the In- terstate Commerce Commission. Unless suspended by the commission the increase will become effective Dec. 1. The increase is to apply on shipments of coal from points in Arkansas, Ok- lahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas to all destinations in the Southwest and South. An advance of a similar amount on coal and coke is proposed from Southern Illinois points and all Mississippi River trans- fer points including Cairo and Hast Bt. Louis, Ill., Memphis, Tenn., Vicksburg, Miss., and New Orleans, La., to all des- tinations in Texas. These increases are understood to be the first filings of the lines west of the Mississippi River of a proposed gen- eral advance in commodity freight rates which the western roads con- template submitting to the commission during this month to become effective on or about Dec. 1. The probability i the advances generally will be sus- pended pending a hearing. Practically complete tariffs have been filed by the railroads operating in Cen- tral Freight Association territory, mak- ing an advance of 5 per cent in the freight rates on interstate traffic in the territory bounded by an imaginary line running north and south just east of Pittsburg and Buffalo and the Missis- sippi and Ohio rivers. The increases will affect all state traffic except that in coal, coke, iron ore, cement, brick, tile, clay, starch, plaster and such other traffic as may be controlled by specific unex- pired orders of the commission. Each one of the tariffs filed bears a notation that it is in conformity with the orders and decisions of the commis- sion promulgated in the advance rate case on Aug. 1.

DEPARTMENT BiG REVENUE GETTER It Has Paid $327,250.64 Into General Fund During Eight Months, Report Shows. TOPEKA, Kan., Oct. 9.—An examina- tion into the State Insurance Depart- ment shows that the Insurance business in Kansas is steadily increasing. It shows that this department is bearing a large portion of the expenses of running the State Government. During the first eight months of this year the depart- Dsieeeamemaenedaaaee ment collected $407,388.64, an Increase of $21,872.15 over the receipts for the same period in 1913. Of the $407,388.64 collected, $327,250.64 went into the general revenue fund of the State. This amount would more than pay the running expenses of the following State departments for an en- tire year: Executive Department, Secre- tary of State, State Auditor, Treasurer, Attorney-General, Superintendent of Be St Se rurance, Public Utilities Commission, State printing office, Bank Commission- of all the institutions under *his board, «er, Board of Ccutrol and superintendents State Accountant, State Architect, Fish and Game Warden, Employment Bureau, Livestock Commission, Ol] Inspector, Salaries of the presidents of the State Agricultural College, Emporia Normal, and chancellor of the State University, Warden of the penitentiary, superintend- ent of the State reformatory, State Board of Health, Board of Agriculture, Historical Society, Bureau of Labor and Mining, State Library, Traveling Library Commission, together with the salaries of the Justices of the Supreme Court and all the offices and clerks connected with the court. “It is a fact,’’ said one or tne officials In the department, in answer to a ques- tion, “that the people of the State are not getting the most that they should in efficiency out of the insurance de- partment. Too large a share of their receipts are required to help pay other State expenses. The department fs run at a cost of $12,000 a year. We need an engineer to make inspections of wa- terworks systems in various towns. We need an actuary to pass on the securi- ties and other phases of the tnsurance companies in the State. The department is a money maker for the State, all right, but some of the money should be spent in improving the efficiency of the department itself.’’ In his biennial report to the next Legislature Supt.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur and alco- hol added, then left to age and care- fully filtered will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant; remove every bit of dand- ruff, stop scalp itching, and falling hair. Just a few applications will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, gray or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, ifs trouble- some. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle at drug stores, known as “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur Compound,” thus avoiding a lot of muss. Some druggists make their own, but it isn’t nearly so nice af “Wyeth's.” >While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive- ness. By darkening your hair with Wyreth’s Sage and Sulphur no one can tell, because it does it so nat- urally; so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one smal! strand at a time. Do this tonight and by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, after another applica- tion or two it will be restored to its natural color and be even more glossy, soft and luxuriant than ever. Local druggists say they are sell- ing lots of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur;” it surely helps folks appear years younger.—ADV. .

Hanan, the millionaire shoe man, Oh, no, indeed!

Here is the way it all came about: “In October, 1911, [| was somewhat surprised when the Duke came to me and asked for the privilege of address- ing my sister. He told me he had cor- responded with her for a year and that he wanted te marry her. “T told the Duke the question ef mar- riage was a very serious one, and add- ed, ‘If you will anawer certain questions I will consider the matter.’ “He said he welcomed questioning and I had him investigated. Satisfied he came of a good family, I asked the Duke if his record was clean. He as- sured me it was. He pressed his suit until January, 1914, und then my sister accepted him. “Even then I was suspicious. When it came to the question of a marriage settlement I insisted that the Duke waive all property rights, which he did. “My wife, with a woman's intuition, opposed the match. I really believe my sister accepted the Duke because she pitied him. Soon after the marriage the Duke began treating his bride cru- elly. He tried to get money from her, but she gave him no more than enough to live on—and so, it might be said, he existed as a sort of household pet. As to sums of money—bah! She was too sensible for that.’* ws in Europe who vouched for him. He was introduced to me by an Italian nobleman. Then came the courtship of my sister who, mind you, was not real- ly in love with the Duke. He simply won her by perseverance. She refused him three times. The fourth time he wept, fell on his knees, threatened to destroy himself, and woman-like, she took him.’ Followed then the wedding on Feb. 17 last at St. Thomas’ Church and a honeymoon trip on the Mediterranean on the Hanan yacht. The crash came at Monte Carlo en May 5, with the Duke’s arrest. When Mr, Hanan visited him the mil- lionaire exclaimed: ‘““‘What did you ever do this for! Why did you lie to me be- fore you won my sister’s hand?’ “How could you expect me to spoil my future prospects,” was the Duke’s reply, according to Mr. Hanan. Previously, Mr. Hanan says, the Duke had treated his wife cruelly on the yacht. Greunds for Annulment. The fact that Durazzo had been con- victed of a crime furnished grounds in this State for an annulment suit. While such action was being considered the Duke wrote to every member of the Hanan family and in one of his miesives demanded $50,000, according to Hanan. “This story ought to be spread all over the United tates,” sald the mil- Honaire today. ‘It is the strongest sermon against marriages between American girls and foreigners that can be preached.

LORIMER INDICTED CHARGED WITH TH MISUSE OF $56,500 Construction Company Partner Codefendant—True Bills for Three Men in Bank. By Associated Press. CHICAGO, Oct. 9.—William Lorimer, who was voted out of the United States Senate on charges that he had not been legally elected, was indicted in the Fed- eral Court here yesterday on a charge of misapplication of the funds of the La Salle Street National Bank, the fore- runner of the defunct La Salle Street Trust and Savings Bank. Lorimer was president of both matitutions. The indictment also named Joseph P. Gallagher, with whom he had been as- sociated in the Lorimer and Gallagher company, contractors, as a co-defendant, who had aided and abetted in the al- leged misapplication of the funds. The grand jury also returned indict- ments against three others, who were connected with the bank. They are Charles B. Mundy, vice-president; Charlies G. Fox, cashier, and Thomas McDonald, assistant cashier. Indict- ments charging making false entries TO TEGO. | were returned against these three Aug 27. Today's true bilis charge additional violations of this kind. The indictment against Lorimer and Gallagher is in % counts and charges that the Lorimer and Gallagher company gave worthless notes for a total of $56,500. Lorimer is charged with misap- plication in buying for the bank these notes, which he, it is said, knew to be worthleas.

This season there is a splendid crop of ‘Missouri! applies, but the prices offered by com- mission houses and dealers are so low that after paying freight charges, cost of handling, barrels, ete., there is nothing left for the farmer.

I am impressed with your editorial of the 29th inst. captioned “A Vicious Amendment.” Any move calculated to prevent amendment to the present antiquated system of assessing prop- erty for the purpose of raising revenue for the support and development of cities and towns ought to be recognized by all thoughtful citi- Zens. It is perfectly feasible to secure tax re- form without resorting to the single tax to which some people are opposed. Every parcel of land within the limits of St. Louis has a value, and that value should be determined for the purposes of assessment by some fixed rule such as the unit foot. At present this valuation is Jargely a subject of guesswork on the part of the assessing officers, and where there are a number of these officers there are various kinds of guesses employed. St. Louis is in a position #t® reform the method of assessing property if ‘the officials should decide to do so. But take | City for instance; under the system now in vogue there the assessor of Jackson County fixes the valuation and the city assessor is, by law, obliged to copy his figures. It seems to me that each city in the State of Missouri ought to be in a position where it may @leect ite own assessor and direct how its Jands shall be valued for the purposes of assess- ment. Those who are advocating amendment No. 1 may learn something on the subject of realty valuation by turning to the State of Texas and ascertaining what the cities of Beaumont, Hous- ton, Waeo, Galveston, San Antenio and others have done in the way of changing their methods assessing property and what the change has J. ©.

Shall President Wilson's wise, farsighted course in dealing with troubleus international conditions be maintained and his valuable constructive work continue? Or shall his policies and his labors which have wrought results of surpassing excellence and value to the American people be blocked and all! that has been accomplished endangered? This is the sole issue of the congressional elec- tions {n November. President Wilson's policies cannot be main- ja majority to support him in both houses of Con- | gress. An adverse majority in either the Senate | or House might completely block his work. An adverse majority in both houses would certainly destroy his usefulness and might menace all the good he has accomplished. Voting adverse majorities into Congress would be in effect a condemnation of President Wilson and a demand for the reversal of his policies at home and abroad. It would be a condemnation of the result of his administration and a demand for the defeat of all his plans for the future. What is it, in the event of the defeat of Demo- crats in the congressiona!] elections, the people would condemn? They would condemn the peace policy of the President which has given the United States the unique position and the splendid advantage from both a moral and material standpoint of being the only great nation in Christendom free from war and entangling alliances that may lead to war. Do the American people want to condemn this achievement of practical wisdom? They would condemn the policy of ‘watchful waiting” which has kept us from war with Mex- ico and has given hope of the maintenance of friendly relations with Mexico and the fulfillment |o? the aspirations of the Mexican people for equitable and permanent self-government. Do the American people want to condemn and change this accomplishment of patience, humanity and sound judgment? ; They would condemn the new standard of ethics in international relations under which President Wilson eliminated “dollar diplomacy” and gub- ordinated selfish ambitions and interests for the popular welfare in the dealings of strong with weak peoples. Do the American people want to reverse this advance of righteous and enlightened statesman- ship? In considering the peace achievements of the administration we must not overlook the elimina- tion of social, business and industrial antago- nisms, conciliatory methods and judicious meas- ures. We must keep in mind the means to bring about better understanding and harmonious co- operation between Government and business and different classes and interests—the methods and measures designated by the President as the “con- stitution of peace.” No principle has been sacri- ficed in this effort to destroy antagonisms which interferred with progress and prosperity. Nor should we overlook the Bryan treaties of peace which provide for diplomatic postponement and arbitration as safeguards against war. Do the American people want to condemn the “new freedom” of business? Shall all of these achievements be thrown into the scrap heap of partisan warfare? Surely the people are not willing to undo the great constructive work embodied in the banking and currency reform law, with that bulwark against financial conspiracies and panics—the Federal reserve system. Surely they are not willing to condemn the new definition of national honor and rectitude em- bodied in the tolls exemption act. Surely they are not willing to undo the ercel- lent and just revision downward of the tariff schedules, nor the anti-trust acts, nor any of the valuable measures designed to meet financial and transportation emergencies caused by the war. Surely they do not want te step any of the wise measures outlined by the President for action in the next session of Congress. These things accomplished and in preparation are merely parts of an extraordinary program of good work. They suffice to suggest what a popu- lar vote at the polls adverse to the Wilson admin- istration would mean. In this crisis mere partisanship should be thrust aside for the public welfare. The American people should stand by the Presi- dent who has served them so well. They should hold up his hands. LORIMER’S INDICTMENT. The indictment of William Lorimer and four other officials of the La Salle Street National Bank, Chicago, will determine the issue whether great losses can be inflicted through the methods pursued by this bank without anybody being held to criminal responsibility for them. A similar issue is involved in the wreck of the Bankers’ Trust Co. of St. Louis. Mrs. Peixotto, the New York teacher who was removed because she became a mother, having lost her case before the Court of Appeals, has taken it before the State Commissioner of Educa- tion. And Mrs. Sara Breslow, another teacher guilty of breaking the Schoo! Board rule regarding motherhood,is also protesting against removal to the same authority. The public interest in these cases lies principal- ly in the fact that the New York Roard of Educa- the i & permits marriage on the part of tema! a ® i . if . a . pl > ¥ S , eee , Pe ey .

Levy relative to the future of Monticello, which he inherited from his uncle, Commodore Uriah P. Levy. He has a deep aver- sion to parting with the title, if it is to mean that the former home of Thomas Jefferson, built in 1764, is to become a mere museum of relics of the founder of Democracy. It has been Mr. Levy’s aim to maintain this home as a “going concern,” as it were—a place of some utility with associations of present as well as past activity. The only weakening in his stead- fast refusal to sell the property is recorded in his reluctant consent to dispose of it to the Govern- ment for $500,000, conditioned on the understand- ing that it fs used as an occasional residence for Presidents of the United States. The property should be owned by the public. Probably no protest will be raised against the price. At any rate, Mr. Levy’s statement that he has spent much more than half a milifon on its restoration and maintenance is credible. The idea of having our President leave the associations of Washington at ftntervals to live for a few days where the father of Jeffersonian Democracy dwelt, died and is buried is singularly attractive. We have had Presidents who could not have failed to benefit much by the atmosphere. ‘= = a ABRIAL AND OTHER ‘‘SNIPING.’’ If two men in an aeroplane make a flight over a populous town and drop bombs that demolish Awellines, hospitals and ancient monuments and ki]i or maim a score of women, children and in- valids, that is a deed of daring.

THE READERS WAR GUIDE. There is one thing about the Ger- mans—they are about the greatest peo- ple in the paper to take the initiative. It will be remembered that they first declared war, and their disposition to beat the other fellow to it has not been abated a bit. It seems that when everybody in the paper gets settled down to one style of fighting, the Ger- mans at once resort to another. Thus, when the allies became a little too good at surging back and forth upon the front page, the Germans suddenly went over on the second page and burrowed down. What had been a running fight became a siege, and a siege it con- tinues to this day. It was the same «at sea. When the British fleet had cruised up and down vne side of the front page for a while, and the Ger- man fleet had done the same thing on period, the Germans suddeniy changed off te submarines and sent three Brit- ish cruisers to the bottom ef the page before the British discovered that the Germans had adopted an entirely new style of fighting. ‘Whatever surprises there have been In the paper have been furnished by the Germans. Goodness knows what they will do next. The Weather Bird, who gets about tn the paper a good deal, says all the allies are on the verge of nervous prostra- tion. Even where they are doing very well, as the Russians on the third and fourth pages are, for instance, they still feel that the Germans are cooking up something on them and that they are all about to be blown up. The Weather Bird has made a psychological study of this about-to-be-blown-up feel- ing. He says it has rendered this war unlike any other war in history. That natural zest for battle which all men have has been dimin.ened by it to such an extent that none of the allies may be sald to be enjoying the fighting. It was formerly possible for one to comfort one’s self with certain bounds beyond which nothing could happen. That is, one always had a fighting chance to kill the enemy first, and the peril of death was chiefly confined to action. That 's not so today if one is fighting the Ger- mans. Anything can happen, and one is as likely to die eut of action as in it. Thus, there was no action in the destruction of the three British cruis- ers. At a time when no one suspecte4 the enemy te be about, something sud- denly let go, and at least two of the ships went down without firing a shut. The Weather Bird says the feeling with respect to the German Zeppelins is exactly that of one walking under a staging upon which there are swinging in midair about seven painters. He says we have all experienced that sen- setten, and may therefere knew whas | the ether side for an equally fruitless. JUST A MINUTE. Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams. I the state of mind is in all those parts of the paper which expect te be Zep- Pelined any minute German science, of which a great deal has been said, is really making good, even if German militarism, of which so much was expected, is not. At any rate, no other science of equal] effeo- tiveness has been trotted out since the war began, and if it were a straight laboratory fight from this time on, the Kaiser would win. The Rusisans, who have been too busy maintaining hells of one kind and another to do any lab- oratory work, would be easily blown up, and the response from the allies would almost wholly devolve upon the French. What the French may prove to have up thelr sleeves is hard say- ing. They have not furnished a single surprise up to this time, though they have the reputation of being about as scientific as anyone in the paper. The Weather Bird was taunting them the other day, and among other things he asked them where Mme. Curle was. He says he believes it made them think. At any rate, they all fell ai- lent, and Gen. Pau finally remarked what a nice day it was.

By James Francis Dwyer. rifle and looked dreamily across the W-acre patch of vegetable garden that surrounded Darlinghurst Penitentiary. A dozen “trusties,”’ short sentence prisoners with full good con- duct marks, were working in a line that stretched across the potato field, and Warden Murphy formed the extreme left wing. On the right was Warder -Fin- nerty, and between these two living obstacles in the path to freedom, the eauad of convicts toiled induastriously, Warder Murphy was not in an amiable mood. The little pangs of ambition gnawed within him, and he was dis- satisfied with his position and prospects. For the first time in his life he believed himself capable of greater things, and as he stood gazing across the field, imagination swept the dozen prisoners from his perspective and painted allur- ing pictures of Patrick Murphy’s suo- cess in walks of life that were widely removed from the path he was follow- ing. But suddenly the dream pictures fled Murphy's conscious mind became aware of the fact that Ne. 87, known to his prison companions as “The Rat,” had moved a few paces to the left towards a WUttle stream that trickled over a gravel bed, and was then busy with an empty tomato can washing a few hand- fule of the sandy soil. The warder was astonished. He moved rapidly towards the prisoner and angrily ordered him back to his work. “The Rat” turned a weak, cunning face up to bis guard and made a motion for silence. “There's gold here, Mr. whined. ‘Gold, real gold, sure The warder’s eyes blinked sugpicious- WY rite MURPHY grounded his ’ Murphy,” he e ly, but he choked back the threat that was on his lips. The prisoner twirled tlfe can vigorously, while his eyes and tongue pleaded with the officer. ‘Let me just wash this tinful,”’ he whispered, hoarsely. “I know there's gold here, Mr. Murphy; I’ve been a miner and I know the looks of the ground.”’ Murphy Eyes It Greedily. Mise tnve mood was favorable to the investigation of gold mines. His position did not appeal to him that morning, and he watched the prisoner anxiously. With a final twirl “The Rat” jerked out the last of the muddy water that the tin contained, then he peered at the silt in the bottom. : Look!” he cried, there is gold here?’ Murphy grasped the tin with trem- bling fingers. Gold! and only a few minutes before, Fortune had been tan- talizing him with visions that appeared to have not the remotest chance of be- coming realities. But gold was there! In the bottom of the can were thmee lit- tle yellow pellets that glistened in the wet sand Murphy emptied them into the palm of his big right hand and eyed them greedily. “Tt's gold,” he gurgled. “Sure thing,” affirmed the prisoner. The warder gloated over the find, and “The Rat’ watched him closely. Presently Murphy looked at his watch. “We'll be going in to dinner directly,” he said, excitedly. “What about this?” He nodded at the three pellets in his hand.

What do you say if I’m willing to take a plug of tobacco instead of the yellow stuff, and then I’ll keep mum about the find?” Murphy was foraging in his pockets before ‘“Bhe Rat’’ had finished his prop- osition, and he hastily slipped an un- touched plug to the prisoner, who eager- ly closed his hand over it and looked inquiringly at the face of the guard. “"Taint much for three lumps of gold,” he mumbled. “Tl get another plug off Warder Fin- nerty and give it to you,”’ stammered Murphy. “But hola your tongue about the gold whatever you do.’’ The second plug, which Murphy im- mediately obtained from Finnerty, rec- onciled “The Rat,” and he wore a smile upon’ his white, cunning face as he marched fn with his 11 companions when the jail bell rang for dinner. The Patch Was a Golconda. UT Warder Murphy had no appe- = tite. Visions of gold in unweigh- able quantities came up before his mental eye and flung commonplace matters into the background. The po- tato patch was a Golconda, and no one knew of it but himself and a prisoner whose silence he had bought with two plugs of tobacco. He smiled joyfully at the recollection of the deal that he had successfully made with “The Rat.” But now the knowledge had to be put to good use. It would be necessary to the State and then mine the ground for the wealth it contained. Murphy had no money, and he rapidly ran over in his mind those of his friends who had capital to invest. Weisler, the German Jew, who owned a watch repairing es- tablishment near the penitentiary, had money, and 10 minutes after the pris- oners had been locked in their cells for their midday meal, Murphy was in the shop. “Hey, Weisler,” he cried, joyfully, as he had laid the three little pellets upon the counter, “what would you give for a patch of ground where you could dig those up by the bucketful?” The Jew picked up the pellets one by one, and after examining them keenly laid them back on the counter. “I would give noddings, Mr. Murphy,”’ he said, slowly, “dose are tree little lumps of brass.” « « * * s 4 . When Warder Murphy returned toe the jail, the Chief Warder called him aside. “There's trouble brewing for you,” he said, grimly. ‘““We searched 307 and his pal 58 at dinner time, and found that each had a plug of tobacco in his pos- session.” ‘“‘Number 898T° queried the astounded Murphy. ‘Yes, number 59," snapped the Chief, ‘that friend of ‘The Rat’ who works in the brass shop.” And then ft dawned upon the fear- stricken warder how Number 307 had obtained the necessary materia! to salt the mine tm the potato patch. purchase the vegetable garden from (Copyright: Shortstory Pub.

I want some sugar and raisins in ex- change for them, for I want to make a cake, and hurry along, so you will be back before dinner time.” Billy Pig started off on a trot down the road, and he fully intended to obey his mother’s instructions, but he had to cross a stream of water, and instead of going over the little bridge he walked under it, and tho muddy water felt so cool and smooth that he lingered, and finally set down his basket and paddled about until he forgot all about the eggs. Now it happened that soom after he left home Billy Goat came down the road and saw. Billy Pig's mother standing by the gate. “Good morning, Madam Pig.” said Billy Goat “Where is Billy Pig this fine morntng? I suppose he is work- ing . the garden.” “No, he is on his way to market with a basket of eggs,” said Madam Pig. “I want some raisins and sugar to make a cake.

Then he spled the basket of eggs under a bush, a short distance away. “T'll take the eggs to market my- self.” thought Billy Goat.

He returned by Hf another road, and, of course, did not many other pretty in the lot—ofr stick-ups——-sale be- Bot meet Billy Pig. “I knew you were in a hurry for the raisins and sugar, Madam Pig,” he said when she answered the knock on the door. “I gaw the basket of eggs under a bush down by the bridge, and Billy Pig was having a good time paddling in the water.

He went to the bush, but the eggs were gone, and he looked around behind it, he looked all around, but nowhere could he find the basket of eggs. Then Billy Pig began to cry, and wish he had obeyed and not stopped to pad- dle in the water. When he reached the door of his house he could smell the spscy cake, and he forgot all about the eggs for a minute, and ran into the kitchen. There sat Billy Goat eating woh larger piece of cake than BI Pig ever had. “Where are the’eggs you took to the market this morning?’ asked his moth- er, looking very anghy. “An old black bear came out of the woods and took them away from me, and I have been all this time chasing him, trying to get them back,” said naughty Billy Pig. Billy Goat nearly choked, trying not to laugh when he heard this wrong story. As he went out of the’ yard, Billy Goat heard something that sounded very much lIike orying, and he heard Madam Pig’s voice saying, “and you told a wrong story, too, which made it worse.

LOUIS SAINT lf MAN OERSIS mS HRT N CONTINUED STORM Charles Fricke, Blinded by Rain, Fatally Injured by Grocer’s Automobile. One man was killed, five persons were injured in accidents, buildings were damaged by lightning and streets and cellars were flooded in the severe rain- storm which began at noon yesterday and continued with spurts of severity all afternoon and through the night and this morning. Charles Fricke, 30 years old, a clerk, suffered injuries which resuited in his death when he was struck by the auto- mobile of Mathias Kaemmerer. a »#ro- cer, of 4300 College avenue, at Grand and Hebert streets in a blinding rain last night. Fricke was crossing in front of 313! North Grand avenue and, according to witnesses, appeared not to see the ma- chine, which was going north, until it was within a few feet of him. He at- tempted to threw himself onto the hood of the machine, but fell when it struck him and was run over. Kaemmerer stopped his machine and carried Fricke, who was unconscious, to the Christian Hospital, a few doors away. After treatment there Fricke was taken to the city hospital, where he died. His skull was fractured. Driver Is Locked Up. Kaemmerer was locked up at the Day- ton Street Police Station to await action of the Coroner’s jury this morning. The storm at intervals was accom- panied by thunder and lightning. From noon yesterday until 7 o'clock this morning the precipitation was 2.25 inches. Hail fell in some portions of the city. Willlam Liese, 55 vears old, of 1515 South Tenth street, was knocked down at Eighth and Olive streets yesterday afternoon by an automobile driven by Emory F. Chase, 2% years old, propri- etor of the Garrick Hotel, 527 Chestnut street. Liese suffered a fracture of the skull, a broken nose and a deep cut under his chin. Chase was ar- rested. Columbus H. Haile, 53 years old, vice- president and traffic manager of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad, living at the Buctckingham Hotel. ‘was struck by a machine in front of 612 Olive street. He suffered a_ disloca- tion of one wrist. The driver did not stop. Maver Margolies, 50 vears old, a gro- cer, of 1434 Blair avenue, was knocked down by an automobile owned and driv- en by T. D. Armigstead Jr. of 6064 Ber- lin avenue, at Sixth and Olive streets, yesterday afternoon. His right ankle was broken. Wagon Knuoecked Against Girl. Gertrude Keplein, 11 years old, of 1218 Blair avenue was struck by a wagon, which was knocked against her by an automobile which skidded at Eighth and Pine streets. She was bruised. Mrs. Mollie Hammond was stunned by lightning which struck the roof of her home at 3444 Louisiana avenue. Stocks of goods in the jewelry store of Herman Schubach and the clothing store of Morris Jacobs, at 1821 Market street, were damaged by water which leaked into the store from the roof, the drain pipes being too smal! to carry off the water. The roof of the Lincoln School, 23% Eugenia street, was slightly damaged by fire started by lightning. ARREST ENDED LITTLE’S BREAKFAST EGG SCHEME Man Convicted of Jewelry Rob- bery Meant to Guarantee Freshness by Stamped Date. The letter carrier dropped an extra sack of mail on the desk of Detective Chief Allender yesterday. It was ad- dressed to B. E. Hendy, Robinedale, Minn., and had been forwarded to po- lice headquarters. Allender recalled that ‘‘B. E. Hendy” was one of the aliases used by Johr Little, under sentence of five years for robbing the Weldlich Jewelry Co. of $5000 worth of diamonds and jewelry and $2160 in cash. Little was caught several weeks ago in Minneapolis, of which Robinsdale is a suburb. The mail consisted of more than 2) return post cards which had been sen* cut by “B. E. Hendy, president of the Breakfast Bee Corporation,’ and blanka for orders of “fresh jaid’’ eggs had been filled out by prospective customers. "What's this latest graft of yours?’’ Allender asked, when Little had bee. brought from his cell. “That's strictiy legitimate, Chief,”’ re- plied the prisoner. “‘I was just getting tt started when thoy nabbed me for the Weidlich job." “Hiow were you going to guarantee the freshness of the eggsc’’ “Why, simply enough,” said Little *t was going to date everyone I sold.’’ c, Bee BW inghamasind ring. FOUR AUTOS ABANDONED Cars Taken From Various Parts of City Left in Central District. Four automobiles drives away by ‘“‘joy- riders’’ from different sections of the city last night were found in the Cen- tral District and towed to the police garage. The car of Dr. U. 8. Short, 906 Hum. phrey street, stolen from Grand and I1.u- cas avenues, was found at Seventeenth and Walnut streets; one belonging to the Central Wire and Iren Co., 812 South Seventh street, was abandoned at Ninth and Walnut streets; the car of Albert avenue was found in front of 110 North Broadway, and the auto of William Sellers, stop- ping #t the Beers Hotel, was found on Olive street, between Eighth and Ninth streets. ; POP ¢t u n. the National it .~- wattle, Byes Bree 6th , about ut the Giamon: Intelligent and persistent advertising wlll “sell” any salable Real Estate, and the largest number of prospective buyors can be reached through the Post-Dis. patch Big House, Hume and Real Estate Guide, Only FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 9, 1914. 42 Days More parcman \ BESS es \ Ral! eens?

By Bozeman Bulger, A Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. SHIBE PARK, PHILADELPHIA, Oct 9.—At last the Dear Old Public has scored a victory over organized baseball. Shibe Park seats 22,000 and none is allowed to stand. When the 22,000 seats for today’s game were sold the disappointed ones, according to time honored custom, bought seats on the roofs of surrounding huses. The Philadelphia club resented any- one getting even a remote view of the game without paying something at the box office. and induced the city officials this morning to forbid the admission of spectators to these houses. The house owners rushed to court, got an injunc- tion nst the police, and at game time the surroundin houses were thronged with some 18,000 fans peering over the fences. eh ee: Bie sie mae Bees One argument by the lawyer for the AT NEW YORK.

A LL the information seems to hint that picking the winner and tossing a coin are synonymous. The “dope,” in the present case, may be tossed aside. World's series figures seldom can be predicted by conning the season’s averages. Near-300-hit- ters have been known to go through an entire world’s championship strug- ale without making a safe hit, while nobodies of the regular season have flashed like Home-run Baker on occasion. * 7° Why “Second Choice?” HIS is to be a battle between two REAL champions, both having dominated their respective league be- yond all possibility of question. Of the two clubs, the one that is tentatively second choice in the wagering has, for three months, kept up an un nperanetes performance—one that entit it to serious consideration against any pos- sible rival. “‘Nerve” Will Win. | is probable that the club with the least developed aviating habits will be returnea a winner. The club that can deliver near- est to its season’s average per- formance ought te cellect; for it is noteworthy that WORLD’S SERIES GAMES ARE USUALLY BELOW THE STANDARD OF MIDSEASON CONTESTS IN BRILLIANCY, HITTING AND GENERAL RESULTS. It is GAMENESS, therefore, rather than exceptional baseball, that will de- termine who gets the big end of the big series lump. r the Athletics of being the probable Big Money in Sight. A** this will be SOME lump. About the largest winner’s sbare ever earned was that of the New York-Red Sox series, when the returns from the first four games netted the Red Sox something like $3600 per man. The winner’s total wag $88,543.02. This year the total will not reach that sum, for the reason that the Polo Grounds, with its wonderful seating ca- city, will not be available. Neither enway Park nor Shibe Park can ap- proximate this sum. The Giants’ stands accommodate about $75.000 worth of ready-money fans, at world’s series prices; while Fenway and Shibe Park each seats under 000 per single ree Considering the finances in- volved, it’s small wonder Messrs.

They approach all on the street and offer choice seats for any game of the entire oavinn. In front of the Bingham Hotel on Market street 26 men were counted at one time scalping tickets, with police officers less than a hundred feet away. They laughed when told that they would be arrested, and said they did not care if they were; the Magistrates would not hold them. That the police were working with the scalpers is an open secret and mo one has ever attempted to explain how the tickets for the entire series could have been sold out five hours after they were placed on sale when only about 5000 persons had an Op- portunity to buy them. igrd ame | who were in the line for a gay anon of any of those who bought re pte th e first day of . @ sale never got as tar as the et window, while others who were wasebinn the police did not move for more than an hour after the sale began.

The fact that some- thing was wrong with this year’s sys- tem was proven when newspaper men timed the ticket sellers at work. The time was taken by three men, was hardly as fast as that required last year, and yet the sale was through more than two hours earlier than it was in 1918. “The worst scandal in baseball his- tory,”” is the comment heard all over town. Those who stood in line for one or more days and then did not get near the ticket windows, though there were only a few hundred in front of them when they first got in line, have said they are through with championship proweoe f as far as the Athletics are con- For the most part the scalpers taken into custody were boys who had single sets of tickets.

Protests against the action of the po- Hee sent to maintain order in the crowd vt oor ee tickets was responsible for that any ticket scandal be lic sale was in force, has been sum- moned to appear before Superintendent of Police Robinson. There have been complaints received at headquarters that policemen them- selves purchased large blocks of seats and permitted agents of speculators to make frequent trips to the ticekt win- dows, while ordinary fans were forced to stand in line, only to learn when their turn came that the supply was exhausted. Director Porter has issued a state- ment requesting anyone having evidence of a policeman aiding ticket purchasers, to report the matter to him at once. The director declared that under no ciroumstan would the ticket scalping go unno as the operations of the lators 8 year is said to be more agrant than ever before in this city.

Of- fers on the Athletics were at 10 to but Boston backers were inclined to hold out for 2 to 1. Falling to get that price, some accepted the closer odds. Schumm placed one Het of $1000 to $650.

FOR GAME WITH ASKELL HUSKIES Diver, Guard, and Hart, Quar- terbatk, Unable to Play in Game Tomorrow. Yesterday’s drenching rain, causing soaked campuses, failed to keep local football squads from going through their daily routine, and while the workouts were not as strenuous as usual, the three collegiate coaches refused their squads an off day, in order to keep them on edge for Saturday's contests. The C. B. C. and St. Louis U. gridders braved the outdoors and went through half an hour’s signal drills. Coach Ed- munds, however, sent his men through formations in the spacious Piker gym- nasium. Coach Ward and his Christian Broth- ers’ College warriors face the stiffest opposition of local schools tomorrow. The Easton avenue eleven, about 20 strong, accompanied by several mem- bers of the faculty and a small band of students, will leave this afternoon for Kansas City, where they will tackle the strong Haskell Indian team tomor- row afternoon. Incidentally, the colle- gians are in no shape to meet Kennedy’s aggregation. Two Regulars Missing. Two of the men absolutely will be un- able to enter the fray, while two oth- ers have not been at practice since the Illinois game, and are in no shape to lay against an eleven of Haskell's call- er. Diver, guard, and Hart, quarter- back, owing to injuries suffered against the Illini, will merely warm the bench, while Capt. Shea, haifback, and Bren- ton, tackle, will play without any pre- liminary practice. Many of the other men are bruised and battered. Galla- gher will play quarter; Shank, who to date has operated in the backfield, will be shifted to Diver’s place, and a new- comer, Sackspebben, will replant Shank. en questioned last night as to his hopes for victory, Coach Ward was not optimistic. He said: “In Haskell we meet one of the strongest teams in the West. I should say stronger than Illinois. The Indians outweigh Illinois and have almost an entire team of veterans. I hope for the best, but am not confident of victory. Haskell defeated Kansas City Unitver- sity, last week.”’ The Washington U. line-up will have a much changed appearance when it stacks up against the Kirksville Os- teopaths tomorrow afternon. Edmunds will switch McRoberts from right tackle and play him on left end, where he will displace Hetlage. Hetlage will take Gray’s place at right half, and the latter will once again be seen in his old position at left tackle. This will let ‘“Puff” Martin out of the game. Martin’s failure to show any class is the reason for the change. Coach Edmunds fails to take the Os- teopaths as lightly as most Piker follow- ers. He is sanguine for victory. How- ever, he places the Osteopaths on a higher plane than Shurtleff or the Nor-|' Last year they were defeated by B. mals. a 21—3 score by C. . bad score.

8T. LOUIS POST-D ILITTLE GIRL WHO SOLD AMPLIFIES GERM THEORY "OF INFANTILE PARALYSIS ‘Dr. Flexner Now Believes Di- sease Is Transmitted Through Agency of “Carriers.” BAL/TIMORE, Md., Oct. 9.—Dr. Simon Flexner, head of the Rockefeller Instt- tute for Medical Research, speaking at the Johns Hepkins Hospital University cslebration yesterday, amplified re- marks he made at a meeting of phy- sicians in Saratoga, N. Y., last month regarding his discovery of the germ which causes infantile paralysis. A year ago Dr. Fiexner told the Johns Hopkins Medical Gociety that he be- lieved he had succeeded in cultivating the germ of the disease which Kills so many children. Formerly the germ had not been visible with a high-power microscope, When he made his prior announce- ment he had not been successful in re- producing the disease in animals by injection of the culture of this germ. He explained further yesterday hew he had at last accomplished that purpose and obtained preef which he regarded as being irresistible that the disease is caused by-a germ. The doctor said he believed that the disease was transmit- ted through the respiratory channels, rather than by insects, as some have held. He advanced the theory that perfectly healthy persons often carry the germ in their bodies and infect children; that there are “carriers” of infantile pa- ralyeis, just as it is known there are “carriers” of typhoid or diphtheria. SHE KNOWS SHE LOST, BUT DOESN’T KNOW HOW Woman Tending Bar Has Two Short Change Experts as Customers. Mrs. Louisa Ruch was swindled out of $9.75 er $10 by a short-change trick yes- terday afternoon by two men, who drove up in an autemebile, while she was tending bar for her son-in-law, Max Kannaple, at 4701 Nebraska avenue, One of the men tendered a $2 bill in payment fer two drinks, receiving $19.75 in change. He then induced Mrs. Rush to return the $20 and he gave her a $1 bill, for which she gave him change. He then suggested that he give her two $10 bills for the $20 bill, which was lying on the bar. He toek a $10 bill from his pocket and with a rapid conversation confused Mrs. Rush in her mathemat- ics. She teok a $10 bill from the cash register and gave it to him. He gave her the *two $10 bills and picked up the $2 bill. Mrs. Rush told the police she knew she was short-changed, but had been unable to figure the exact amount of her loss. SENT HOME BAREFOOT Granite City school children had the barefoot wade of their lives yesterday afternoon, when Supt. L. P. Frohardt ‘ordered them sent home with their shoes and stockings in their hands. A very heavy rainfall at noon left water standing in many of the streets Most of the children, returning to schoo] for the afternoon session, got their feet wet. Supt. Frohardt issued orders that they were all to remove their wet shoes and stockings. A little later he ordered that they be sent home. The streets were stil) filled with water and the children waded most of the way to their homes.

BLACK MUSTACHE LEADS TO ARREST OF NEGRO Piano Tuner Identifies Alleged Robber Held After a 54- Day Hunt. Police have been looking for a big negro with a heavy black mustache for 64 days, ever since Emil Weinhoener, 80 years old, of 1548 North Seventeenth street, a piano tuner, reported he had been held up and robbed of $15 and a watch on Mullanphy street, between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, a block from his home. Several negroes with black mustaches have been arrested in that time and re- leased because Weinhoener said none was the highwayman. Two detectives yesterday saw a negro with a black mustache standing in front of 1507 Cass avenue. They arrested him and Wein- hoener was positive the right man had been caught. The prisoner said he was Jesse Smith, 23 years old, a porter, of 15238 North Sixteenth street. At that address de- tectives learned the negro’s name was Tatton. They found a blue steel re- volver and a cap, which Weinhoener identified as the cap worn by the rob- ber. The prisoner denies the robbery charge, but a warrant was issued. FORMER GOV. STEPHENS SUES FOR AUTO DAMAGE Wants T. F, Meyer, Head of Drug Company, to Pay $470.40 Because of Collision, Former Gov. Lon V. Stephens of 5836 Cabanne avenue filed suit against Theo- dore F. Meyer of 4930 Lindell boulevard, president of the Meyer Bros. Drug Co., in Justice of the Peace Luaice’s court yesterday for $470.40 damages, alleged due to an automobile accident. Stephens avers that on June 6 last he was driving west on Page boulevard, near Walton, about 15 or 20 feet in the rear of Meyer’s machine, and when the latter’s chauffeur suddenly stopped without warning, and the machines col- lided. According to Meyer, his chauffeur told him that Stephens’ car ran into his machine, and that he did not stop until after the accident. Stephens al- leges his car was damage $270.40 actually and $2300 by the shock. COLLINS GETS 7 YEARS AS HABITUAL CRIMINAL Had Been Arrested Several Times for Picking Pockets —Jury Acts Quickly. John Collins, who has been arrested many times on the charge of picking pockets, was found guilty yesterday by a jury in Judge Cave’s court under the habitual criminal act and was given the maximum penalty, seven years in the penitentiary. He has served one term Collins was charged with robbing Henry F'. Gellerman, 1309 Carroll street, of a purse containing $12.50, on a street car, last May. When Collins was tried on another case in June he wae convict- ed, but was let off with a sentence of one year in thé workhouse.

Judge Dyer, in the United States Dis- trict Court, today upheld the contention of Attorney General Barker of Missouri that the suits brought by Barker in an effort to compel the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad and the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad to restore the excess charges made while the Mis- souri rate cases were pending should be tried in the State courts and not in the Federal Oourt. Barker filed the Santa Fe case in Adair County and Burlington case in Macon County. The railroads took them to the Federal Court. Judge Dyer held in his opinten that there was no Federal question in- volved in the cases and that they must be tried in the State courts, JEWELER HELD UP AND $1200 IN GEMS TAKEN Masked Negroes Rob &tore Within a Block of a Po- lice Station.

SPECULATION 1S MORE AGTIVE IN nt BOND LIST) New York City Notes Reflect a Good Demand at Firm Figures. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, Bays: “Broad buying for the New York City three-year notes at 108, or within ‘'% point of the record price, with a large investment inquiry for other short-term securities, reflected the efforts of banks and trust companies in various cities to secure a straight 6 per cent income return for their money. “This action was caused in part no doubt by the easier conditions in the money market, resulting from the piling up of emergency notes at the reserve centers. There was also broader de- mand for . + grade bonds and the character of the business done by some of the bond houses indicated that in- vestors were taking considerable blocks of bonds out of the market. Most of the bonds taken or applied for repre- sented the very safe issues which are always in demand with careful invest- ors. “Taking the market as a whole, it may be said that the total trans- actions of the day were the largest that have been negotiated a any time since the Huropean war disturbance began. There was a good business done in unlisted bonds, especially in high-grade municipal issues, which were well taken by banks and indi- viduals. It was significant that the prices paid for these securities were, in many oases, very near the level of the last official quotations. Some of the municipalities which have found it difficult to sell bonds will put out short-term notes in the near future. “The demand for these securities is such as to make it comparatively easy for any municipal borrower of good tions, to make the short-term obliga- fons, at prices which mean a total to the borrower of slightly more oon a per cent.

She ts for child reform, and thinks children should be instructed in the detrimental effects of crime from the standpoint of civics and sanitation.’’ By this time Mrs. Josephine Bliessing- ton Blotch, the eminent social reforme; and militant suffragette, was at the door. “Ah.” she said, after she had greeted Mrs. Jarr with a masculine handstake.| “Ah. T see your husband is at home. , Strange: “What's strange about it? Why shouldn’t I be at home, especially as it's near ones’ —— Mr. Jarr paused, on the point of say- ing ‘‘supper,’’ but the visitor inter- rupted him by remarking ‘Saloon?’ ‘What do you meen, ‘galoon?’”’ asked Mr. Jarr. “Weren't you going to say you could generally be found home because it was near a saloon?’ retorted Mrs. Blessington Blotch, who was a large, granite-faced woman. Then she turned her countenance and remarks to Mrs. Jarr, and ignored Mr. Jarr from that on. “Pardon me if I am frank with all! men, no matter where I meet them— in the home (which is but seldom), on the street. on the platform, especially now that I am attacking the free lunch evil. even if you have to pay for it. Why is it that the words ‘free lunch’ have struck such terror to the hearts of our sex? What is free lunch, and at 4 cent. five or 10 cents a plate? Women think it a mystery that lurks with all the other serpents of the dram shop, to spring, strike and slay the Home!’ Mrs. Blotch howied the word “Home’’ And then, letting the echo of her voice die, continued: “What are the merits of free lunch? What are its attractions’? “Risten. and I will tell you. Our Minerva Phalanx has raided dram shops and has seized upon free lunch and has had it analyzed. What do we find?” Mr. Jarr began to murmur that they found cheese, smoked herrings and ‘“‘wienies’’ generally. But Mrs. Blotch paid no heed to his husky murmurs. ‘‘We found,” Mrs. Blotch continued, ‘‘that free lunch was lacking in protein; we found the re- ceptacles containing it unsanitary, and, at its best, what was it but food? Then, I ask you, what is its deadly power? It is ACCESSIBILITY!” Mrs. Blotch went on, fairly screaming the word ‘‘ac- cessibility.’’ “Ard now I! have founded the Amer- iean Society to Provide Free Lunch at home, Let every militant wife and mother prepare free § lunch—crackers, cheese, pickled tripe. beets, smoked herrings and dill pickles. Let the mili- tant wife and mother spread these out at all times upon a small table, and when the recreant husband betrays a desire to go out for free lunch let him eat the free lunch provided for him at home. MAKE him eat it! Grape juice, lemonade or root beer may be served him if he pays for it. But the lunch MUST be free. Contributions to print literature to carry on the _ anti-free lunch propaganda will be acknowledged. Thank you, I will stay to dinner.’’ But Mr. Jarr had slipped out of the house. “Keep away from that free lunch!” growled Gus, when Mr. Jarr approached the viands exposed in the popular cafe on the corner. “It’s supper time, and decent mens should be home gitting something fit to eat.
