After the work of the day was finished, they had planted gardens, had reared fruit trees, built ar- bors; under them at meal time they sat sur- rounded by those of their own household. To buy the horse and the cow they had pinched and saved; to make the gardens beautiful and the fields fertile they had sweated and slaved, the women as well as the men; even‘ghe watch. dog by day was a beast of burden. When in August | reached Belgium, between. Brussels and Liege, the whole country side showed the labor of these peas- ants. Unlike the American farmer, they were too poor to buy machines to work for them, and, with { scythes and sickles in hand, they cut the grain, with heavy flails they beat it. All that you saw on either side of the road that was fertile and beautiful was the result of their hard, unceasing, personal effort. Belgians Became Tramps. HEN the war came like a cyclone and in ig three weeks the labor of many years was . wasted. The fields were torn with shells, the grain was in flames, torches: destroyed the villages, by the roadside were the carcasses of the cows that had been killed to feed the invadew and the horses were carried off harnessed to gray gun carriages. These were the things you saw on every side, from Brussels to the German border. The peasants themselves were huddled beneath hedges. They were like vast camps of gypsies, except that, less fortunate than the gypsy, they had lost what he neither possesses nor desires, a home. As the enemy advanced the inhabitants of one village would fly for shelter to the next, onlv ‘b: the shells to be whipped further forward; and s) each hour growing in number, the refugees fled towards Brussels and the coast. They were an army of tramps, of women and children tramps, sieeping in the open fields, beneath the hayricks, seeking shelter from the rain, living on raw tur- nips and carrots they plucked from the deserted vegetable gardens. The peasants were not the only ones who suffered. The rich and the noble born were as unhappy and as homeless. They had credit, and in banks they had money, but .they couldn’t get at the money; and when a chatea1 aud a farmhouse are in flames, between them there is little hoice. Three hours after midnight on the day the Germans began their three days’ march through Brussels I had crossed the Square Rogier to send a dispatch by one of the many last trains for Ostend. When I returned to the Palace Hotel, seated on the iron chairs on the sidewalk was a woman, her three children and two maid serv- apts. The woman was in mourning which was quite new, for though the war was only a month old, many had been killed, among them her hus- band. The day before, at Tirlemont, shells had destroyed her chateau and she was on her way to England. She had around her neck two long strings of pearls, the maids each held a smal] handbag, her boy clasped in his arms a forlorn and sleepy fox terrier and each of the little girls was embracing a bird cage. In one was a canary, in the other a parrot. That was all they had saved. In their way they were just as pathetic as the peasants sleeping under the hedges. They were just as homeless, friendless, just as much in need of food and sleep and in their eyes was the same look of fear and horror. Bernhardi tells his countrymen that war is glorious, heroic and for a nation an economic ne- cessity. Instead it is stupid, unintelligent; it creates nothing, !t only wastes. War Like a Mad Dog. F it confined itself to 4estroying forts and cats’ cradles of barb wire, then it would be sufficiently hideous. But it strikes blindly, brutally, it tramples on *he innocent and the beautiful. It is the bull in theychina shop and the mad dog who snaps at children who are trying only to avoid him. People were incensed at the destruction in Louvain of the library, the Catholic ecliege, the Church of St. Pierre that dated ‘rom the thirteenth century. These buildinrs belonged to the world and over their loss the world was 2 Few Hours pitals—French, English and Amer- ican. And the hospitals are full of splendid men. Each one had been phys- ically fit, or he would not have been passed to the front, and those among them who are officers are finely bred, finely educated, or they would not be officers. But each matched his good health, his good breeding and knowledge against a broken piece of shell, or a steel bullet, and the shell or bullet won. They always will win. Stephen Crane called a wound the red badge of courage. It is all of that, and the man who wears that badge has all my admiration. But I cannot help feeling, also, the waste of it. I would have a standing army for the same ex- cellent reason that I insure my house: but, except in self-defense, no war. For war, and I have seen a lot of it, is waste. And waste is unintelligent.

RICHARD HARDING DAVIS. rightfully indignant, but in Louvain there were also shops and manufacturies, hotels and privat: hcuses. Each belonged, not to the world but to one familv. Those indiviaual families made up a city o 45,000 people. In two days there was hot\a roo left to cover one of them. The add those people had built up had been destroyed, the “good wil and fixings,” the stock on the shelves in Wwe stereroom, the goods in the shop windows, tte portraits in the drawing room, the souvenirs and family heirlooms, the love letters, the bride’s veil, the baby’s first worsted shges and the will by which someone bequeathed to his beloved wife all his worldly goods. War came and sent all these possessions, in- cluding the will and the worldly goods, up into the air in flames. Most of the people of Louvain made their living by manufacturing church orna- ments and brewing beer. War was impartial and destroyed both the beer and the church ornaments. It destroyed also the men who made them and it drove the women and children into concentration camps. When first I visited Louvain it was a brisk, clean, prosperous city. The streets were spotless, the shop windows and cafes were mod- ern, rich looking, inviting, and her great churches and Hotel de Ville gavé to the tity gracé And dig- nity. Ten days later, when I again saw it, Lou- vain was in darkness lit only by burning build- ings. Rows and rows of streets were lined with black, empty walls. Louvain was a city of the past, another Pompeli; and her citizens were be- ing led out to be shot. The fate of Louvain was the fate of Vise, of Malines, of Tirlemont, of Liege, of hundreds of villages and towns, and by the time this is printed it will be the fate of hundreds of other towns. Slaughter of Horses. [ this war the waste of horses is appalling. Those that first entered Brussels with the German army had been bred and trained for the purposes of war and they were magnificent specimens. Everyone who saw them exclaimed ungrudgingly in admiration. But by the time the army reached the approaches of Paris the forced we had so depleted the stock of horses that for remounts the Germans were seizing all they met. Those that could not keep up were shot. For miles along the road, from Meaux to Sols- sons and Rheims, their bodies tainted the air. They had served their purposes, and after six weeks of campaigning the same animals that in times of peace would have proved faithful serv- ants for many years, were destroyed that they might not fall into tle hands of the French. Jast as an artillery man spikes his gun, the Germans on their retreat to the Aisne River left in their wake no horse that might assist in their pursuit. As they withdrew they searched each stable yard and killed the horses. In village after village I saw horses lying in the stalls or in the fields still wearing the harness of the plow, or in groups of three or four in the yard of the barn, each with a bullet hole in its temple. They were killed for fear they might be useful. Waste can go no further. Another example of waste were the motor trucks and automobiles. When the war began the motor trucks of the big department stores and manufacturers, and motor buses of London, Paris and Berlin were taken over by the different armies. They had cost from $2000 to $3000 each, and in times of peace, had they been used for the purposes for which they were built, would several times over have paid for themselves. But war gave them no time to pay even for their tires. You saw them hy the road- side cast aside like empty cigarette boxes. A few hours’ tinkering would have set them right. They still were good for years of service. But an army in retreat or in pursuit has no time to waste in repairing motors. To waste the motor is cheaper. Between Villers, Cotterets and Soissons the road was strewn with high-power automobiles and mo- tor trucks that the Germans had been forced to destroy. Something had gone wrong, something that at other times could easily have been mended. But with the French in pursuit there was no time to pause, nor could cars of such value be left to the enemy. So they had been set on fire or blown up or allowed to drive head on into a stone wall or over an embankment. From the road above we could see them in the field below, lying lik+ giant turtles on their backs. | in one place, in the Forest of Villers, was a line of 16 trucks; each capable of carrying five tons.

VERY year or so, St. Louis has the fun ‘ot seeing the country at large get acquainted with some man whom St. Louis has known for) quite awhile. It has happened twice this yéar. First, when Fred Lehmann, at Niagara ‘alls, learned the Spanish for “watchful wait- ing.” And now Festus J. Wade. is Prime Min- ister to King Cotton, and the Southern planters are naming babies after him, while the presidents of some large New York banks, and even the Secretary of the Treasury at Washington, are holding to their jobs with both hands whenever he goes Hast. The going East has been a frequent matter in the last two months, and Wade has learned the first names of most of the Pullman porters run- ning between here and Washington and between the capital and New York. But his suit case is unpacked at present and a bale of cotton, fired from the northeast corner of the Federal Build- ing, would scatter plate glass around his feet at almost any time during banking hours. In a 20-minute gap between two engagements Thursday, he was asked to tell how he came to devise the $150,000,000 (now $135,000,000) cotton pool plan, when the financiers of the Cotton States had failed to find any meang of relief for the crisis caused by the war and the closing of European markets. His reply showed that Wade’s plan, on which Goternment officials now rély to avert disaster 99 to the South, was not handed out by him in mere take-it-or-leave-it fashion. He showed those whom he offered the plan, as he went along, tha} it was necessary and that it would work. Those whom he had to show were St. Louis business men, New York bankers, the Federal Reserve Board, Southern business men and the President of the United States. The way in which he went about this task of demonstration, and the way in which he now tells about it, were very much the same as the way in which he would carry out, and would afterward describe, a real estate deal in which a number of interests were to be considered. Listened, Then Studied. r4 6 T began Aug. 24,” he said, “when I was | one of 300 men who met Secretary Mc- Adoo in Washington, at his request; to consider the situation. “The Buy-a-Bale movement was then being car- ried on, but it was seen to be inadequate to relieye the South. What was desired was to find some means by which the financial interests of the country, with the co-operation of the Gov- ernment, could keep the planters from having to sacrifice their cotton at ruinous prices. “There was much conversation in Secretary McAdoo’s office but nothing practical was offered. I listened all day and that night I went to New York and talked over the matter with some bankers there. While there, I got a telegram from Washington telling me I was appointed one of a committee of seven to consider proposed measures. “I returned to St. Louis, still studying on the matter, and finally I asked for a meeting of the local Buy-a-Bale Committee. The wholesale mer- chants on the committee approved the plan I suggested and when I tested their sincerity by asking if they would subscribe $100,000 each to such a plan, they replied, to a man, that they would. “That was a vote of confidence that counted. On the strength of it, I called a meeting of the banks, as president of the Clearing House As- sociation, and the plan I offered was indorsed by the bankers. the merchants $2,500,000. Is There a Necessity? we friends, “They listened and said the plan was practical, but they raised the question whether.it was necessary. They also had doubts whether the Government at Washington would give the needed approval. “If you can show us that this is a necessity, that a crisis exists, and if you can get the ap- proval of Washington,’ they told me, ‘come back here, and we will raise $50,000,000.’ “I went to Washington and saw Secretary Mc- Adoo. He immediately call the Federal Re- serve Board and after the had heard the plan pretty well outlined by that time) | and submitted it to my financial It was agreed that $7,500,000 | would be St. Louis’ share of a $150,000,000 fund ‘ and that the banks should provide $5,000,000 and » ‘ board then undertook to apportion the money out- \side of NewYork, and assessed St. Louis $7,500,- /000, the amount already agreed on by our local HEN I went to New York, with the ; business interests, and other banking centers in a ie plan and approved it, it was laid before the President. “President Wilson gave his approval and the next day another conference was held with the board. At that time, members of the board sug- gested, as the New York men had done, that something should be done to prove the necessity of such a measure. “So I suggested that a man be named from each of the cotton states, and that the men thus selected meet in St. Louis, consider the plan and advise Secretary McAdoo as to their opinion. “The men were appointed, and the meeting was held Oct. 5. As a result, this telegram, with the signatures of the nine men, was sent to Mr. McAdoo: - “*The plan as laid before you and the Federal Reserve Board on Friday last, to endeavor to raise a cotton loan fund of $150,000,000, was today submitted to the un- dersigned, and after careful consideration of subject, the following resolutions unanimous- ly passed: “““It was moved by E. W. Robertson of Columbia, S. C., and seconded by D. N. Fink of Muskogee, Ok., that the plan outlined by Mr. Festus J. Wade, in general essence, be adopted, and the details worked out later. It is believed the South will subscribe its proportion, as suggested and outlined.”’ Reserve Board Indorsement. 6 re HEN I returned to Washington and met T the Federal Reserve Board again and told them it was necessary that the board should indorse the plan publicly, if they thought it wise. The board published its in- dorsement of the plan and I went to New York for a two-days’ conference with bankers. A com- mittee of the New York Clearing House Associa- tion met and agreed to underwrite $50,000,000 of the pool, conditioned on the raising of an equal sum in non-cotton states, and a third .$50,- 000,000 in the ¢otton states. Later, when some deemed that the assessment on the cotton states was too heavy, it was reduced by $15,000,000, making the total amount of the proposed pool ) $135,000,000. “With a committee of the New York Clearing House Association, I went to Washington last week, and we were in consultation with the Federal Reserve Board Oct. 23 and 24.

The that can be said of any Congress dur- ing | is that it hag been true to its trust. Fime alone will determine the wisdom of its deeds. The Sixty-third Congress, in session longer than any other in the history, is noteworthy for its industry. It should always be even more memorable for its faithfulness to the pledges upon which it was chosen. : When this Congress began its labors, April 7, 1913, certain great measures of reform had been promised by both parties for years. Except for two years in the House of Representatives, the epublicans had been in complete control of the Government since 1897. They had been bound by their platforms to reduce and equalize tariff and other taxation, to extend and strengthen the anti- trust law, to reform our finances, to stop the ex- ploitation of Alaska and to promote justly the principles of self-government in the Philippines. To every one of these obligations they haa proven. false. In most cases they had done noth- ing. Revising the tariff twice, they increased its burdens upon consumers. Exacting some useful und progressive legislation in other directions, they studiously ignored or rejected popular de- mands for relief from privilege, extortion and monopoly. Such was the situation a year ago last spring, when for the first time in more than 60 years a Democratic President with a Congress having a dependable Democratic majority in both branches took office. For good or for ill this Congress, co-operating with this President, has met the issues of the last 20 years in accordance with its covenants. It has dealt with several new problems besides. Nc other Congress has enacted so many laws reaching to the very foundations of finance, com- raerce, industry and social order. In no other Congress has there been more freedom from lob- byists and promoters. At the hands of no other Congress have the people suffered less from dema- sogy and violence. : The Sixty-third Congress has revised downward in the interest of consumers a tariff whose sched- ules not many years ago were sold to the contrib- utors of campaign funds. It has reformed our banking and currency sys- tems, putting an end to the financial tyranny centralized in a private coterie. — It has supplemented and clarified the anti-trust laws establishing personal guilt, although it has fallen short of its full duty in this respect, pre- venting monopoly and interlocking directorates and emancipating labor from summary punish- ments without trial by jury. It has levied an income tax by means of which wealth must bear a share of public burdens here- tofore heaped solely upon consumption. It has created a Trade Commission empowered to inves- tigate and report upon commercial oppressions that tend toward criminality. It has amended the employe’s arbitration law, by which means it recently, in the case of the railroads, averted what threatened to be the great- est strike ever known. It has provided for the construction of a Gov- ernment railroad in Alaska and for the leasing of public coal lands in that territory, thereby forever protecting national rights in a dependency long /menaced by the avarice of a maqney sovereignty. It has passed in one branch an act extending the liberties of the Filipinos and preparing the way for their self-government, a fulfillment not only of our most solemn.pledges but a reaffirma- tion of the principle underlying our own freedom as expressed in the Declaration of Independence. These are the mighty promise-keeping perform- ances of the Sixty-third Congress. Of its many achievements relating to issues unforeseen, we shall cite only the repeal of the Panama Canal tolls act, in which a former Congress had violated a treaty to serve the coastwise-shipping monopoly; the act authorizing the President to use force at Vera Cruz, but not declaring war upon the people of Mexico; the admission of foreign-built ships to American registry; the extension of the emer- gency currency act, anticipating the activities of the Federal Reserve Bank, not yet in operation, and the establishment of a bureau of maritime insurance to continue during the European war. Proof of the rectitude of purpose displayed in this remarkable record and of the fact that both parties have long been pledged to root privilege and plutocracy out of our laws, reference may be made to the attitude of the minority on some of these questions. Republican leadership, of course, was antagonistic, but it could’ not prevent men who respected their word from standing true. In the Senate on the first passage of the Clayton anti-trust bills n Republicans voted with the Democrats; in #he House 56 Republicans. In the Howse no Republicans voted against the Trade Commission bill; in the Senate the banking and currency bill received the votes of four Repub- licans; in the House 49 Republicans. Practically all of the important measures above referred to had Republican support in considerable numbers. The most notable exception is that of the tariff act, and even as to that six Republicans in the House and two in the Senate aligned themselves with the Democrats In perfect accord. When partisans usually hostile unite in this way it is clear that honor and principle and rea- son abide for these movements forward, but prog- ress such as this would not have been made ex- cept under highly favorable conditions, when the temper of the people was known. In both houses the majority was ably and sincerely led. There was an unalterable purpose to respect public opin- ion. There was the most laborious industry. There was unlimited patience. Above all else, there was the lofty inspiration of the White House, which, to the condemnation of a great party, had not been there before. Nothing in a republic is more inspiring than obedience to the popular will. The Sixty-third Congress has been more than obedient. It has been highly efficient. It has been a people’s Con- gress fn which the best traditions of representative government have been courageously maintained. It must look to the people for its rewards. —— eaitinaeaeentine oa ———-- --. -@e@ . EDISON’S PLAY SPELL. . Tho Edison at play would be less interest- ing if he was less*untiring in devoting himself to work. He has been making this week one of his in- frequent visits to his old home in Michigan. He took a ride on the Detroit-Port Huron train, on which he used, 50 yea) go, to sell war extras, sp nagazines, and picked bowledge of telegra- 3 3 | phy and the mysteries of electricity. At Mount Clemens, one of the stations at which he used to get a chi to practice with the key, he jumped off and 1t a telegram with his own hand to the family in New Jersey. his successor as “butcher” came through the train, Edison com- mandeered his stock and acted as a substitute. A great time the Wizard had back in the old scenes. But there was disillusionment. He has added many new accomplishments in these 50 years, but has retrograded in the old ones. While he was sending the message some operator down »the line broke in with the vicious advice to the amateur to “cut it out.” Even with resort to the old trick of short-changing purchasers he was able to sell only $5 worth of stuff for the lad who now has his train “butcher” run. Hardly any- thing was as he remembered it in the past or as he thought it was going to be now. But that only added to the fum Edison has | never believed in vacations. He is having the time of his life this week and is already weak- ening in his view. = = = i Mi 4 THE HOME RULE REFERENDUM. Two acts of the Legislature rcpealing some of its own former laws denying St. Louis important essentials in self-government are made subject to the decision of the voters of the whole State be- cause a referendum on those acts was ordered on petition of the people. St. Louis” own officials now have the power within certain limits to regulate dramshops and prescribe the city license fee they should pay. But an official named from Jefferson City has the power to determine the worthiness of those who receive licenses and to forfeit the licenses of those unamenable to regulation. Offenders against any part of the whole body of law are prosecuted by a Circuit Attorney selected by the people of St. Louis, are tried before a Judge selected by the people of St. Louis, are pronounced guilty or innocent by a jury selected from among the people of St. Louis. But they can be taken into custody only by officials whose appointment is dictated from the State house, 125 miles away. The law is not vindicated in a mere arrest. The policies that contribute most effectually to law euforcement are determined by persons accounta- ble to the city—by its Circuit Attorney, its Judges, its juries. But some extremists insist that law enforcement would be impaired if the selection of the men who clap offenders on the shoulders, who walk beats, who drive patrol wagons, was placed in the hands of commissions selected by the Mayor of the city instead of by the Governor |} of the State. A certain demoralization results from making police appointments a recognized part of the State house patronage. Political assessments on police salaries were a logical consequence of naming commissioners as reward for party service. By no means the least of the scandals resulting were such ‘scandals as the disgraceful police salary grab attempted at the last session of the Missouri Legislature, when members of the department flagrantly violated the law to lobby for the hold-up. No. 11 and No. 12 are the propositions on the referendum ballot. The laws are carefully drawn. They provide for nonpartisan police and excise departments. They will take both out of politics charter. They are needed to carry further that amplification of city authority and harmonious allotment and concentration of city powers gained when the 1914 charter was adopted last June. Home rule is a fundamental democratic princi- ple. St. Louis is entitled to it. ‘= = * — AMENDMENT NO. 1--A TRICK. Voters throughout the State should not over- look the false pretense in Amendment No. 1. Ostensibly directed against the single tax it designedly knocks out the initiative and refer- endum and perpetuates all the ——* of the present tax system. Voters can always defeat a single tax proposal whenever they have a mind to, but they cannot do without the safeguards of the initiative and referendum. The amendment prohibits its own repeal. The success of Amendment No. 1 would be the greatest stroke for the special interests that have fattened on the corruption of public officials and the helplessness of the people, in the history of rotten politics. It would be a deadly blow to direct legislation and honest taxation. Vote down Amendment No. 1. * oO & THE PERFECTED TRADE OF WAR. The present war is differentiated from past wars, not only in picturesque and stirring inci- dents, but in the more important technique of the military trade, chiefly by the submarine, the aero- plane and the machine gun. All three of these important inventions, which have revolutionized military operations, had their origin in the United States. Holland and Lake made the most important con- tributions to the submarine as it is known today. Gatling and Maxim had a part equaled by that or men of no other nation in perfecting the present type of machine gun. Of the flight the Wright brothers made on Dec. 13, 1908, after they had equipped the planes of a “glider” with a gasoline engine, one au.bority says: “This is considered the first instance in wnich a person has ber~ car- ried from the ground in actual flight by mechan- ical means.” The United States had previously given ..e iron- clad battleship to the world. It had rewritten cavalry tactics for the world’s armies. It had own how railroads could »: used in uncuspected ways in facilitating campaigns. In addition, it had more than kept its end up In developing the maximum possibilities of the motor car and in perfecting small arms and explosives anc ex- plosive projectiles. Why is it that tae countries in which militarism is carried to the greatest extreme had to come to the country which, of all countries, is most com- mitted to peace to relearn the trade of war and provide themselves with the most up-to-date of war’s tools? Why did not the emphasis laid on militarism and the habit of thought that subordi- nates everything to utility in war lead them to in- vent the things that, give this present war its de- structive character? — under the civil service provisions of the new, “> “ — ™ ~ ~ P x i SNS wa, et — ne + -— a 7 a ? war draw pensions.

PENNSYLVANIA'S OPPORTUNITY. Philadelphia Ledger : Comprehensive analyses of the political situation throughout the Union, conducted by each newspaper in its special ter- ritory, convince the San Francisco Chronicle, the Denver Post, the Minneapolis Tribune, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Chicago Tribune, the Cincinnati Enquirer, the Boston Globe and the New York World that the Republicans are sure to make substantial gains in the lower house and the Democrats jjust as certain to increase their Majority in the Senate. They will gain at least three seats and probably four. An independent investigation, conducted by the New York Sun,'indicates that the present Demc- cratic majority ‘of 10 in the Senate “will be in- creased to 12, and it may go considerably higher.” What an opportunity for good citizens! They have at last their chance to overwhelm Penrose- ism without imperiling to any degree whatever th» principles for which they sincerely and he polit- ically stands. They are already caught in a Dem- ocrati¢ majority; without loss of prestige they can rid themselves of the incumbrance which drove them into this political innocuousness. PALMER THE MAN. New York Evening Post: Although the Penn- sylvania Progressives are maintaining that a vote for Palmer is a vote for Penrose, and. those of lilinois that a vote for Sherman is a vote for Sul- | ~ Hvan, the independents in these states will be well advised to vote for the old party opponents of the two bosses.

NEUTRALITY. | Germany and the Monroe Doctrine Carman Murder Still a Mystery NOT CONVINCING. Philadelphia Ledger: What the attitude of Germany would be toward the Monroe doctrine if the war should end in her favor is at present an academic question. The promise that she will respect it will not make a very deep impression just now; as a correspondent points out, recent German disregard of treaties as “scraps of paper” suggests that the best American policy is ‘‘ex- tremely watchful waiting.” The assurances of Count von Bernstorff and Dr. Dernburg do not, in fact,,commit the German Government. They are simply .part of the program of convincing us of the overpo ing respect and affection of Berlin. Everyone who has followed the course of events in South America, who understands the strength of the German desire for colonial expansion, knows perfectly well that the Monroe doctrine has been for years a source of irritation to the Ger- man Government. Is it not a fair conviction that, if the allies are beaten and that Government has a free hand, the propagation of German “Kultur” will not be confined to the other side of the At- lantic? In forecasting the consequences of such an event, it wfll* be well not to forget certain episodes in Sanioa and the Philippines. ‘‘The lady doth protest too much.” NO NEED FOR ALARM. Indianapolis News: At a time of such sensi- tiveness and unrest as the present it was very unfortunate that the German Ambassador should have discusged publicly the Monroe doctrine, and its relation to a possible German invasion of Canada. Count Bernstorff is represented as hav- ing said that inasmuch as Canada had sent sol- diers to Europe, the United States should not con- sider it an infringement of the Monroe doctrine if Germany should land an armed force on Ca- nadian soil. Later in the day the following ‘‘am- plification” of the Ambassador’s' rather tay Og statement was given out: The German point of view is that by joining in a European war Canada has put herself out- side the pale of the Monroe doctrine. But Ger- many has not the intention of attacking Can- ada, nor colonizing Canada. Further than that, it now appears that as long ago as Sept. 3 the German Government voluntarily pledged itself to our State Department not to at- tempt colonial expansion in South America, no matter what the outcome of the war might be. There is, of course, small probability of any move against Canada, and now we are assured that none is contemplated. So there is no reason why even the most timorous soul should _ be alarmed. Whether the Monroe doctrine covers the case or not would be hard to tell, as few are wise enough to be able to say just what that doc- trine is at the present time. CANADA AND GERMANY. Springfield Repub:ican: Embassador von Bernstorff’s statement that Germany is entitled to attack Canada can be reasonably disputed by no one in this country. The Monroe doctrine has no more to do with the case than with the binom- inal theorem. To deny Germany's right to send un army to Canadian soil, in view of the sending oi a Canadian army to the war in Europe, would be to deny Germany’s right of self-defense. The question of a German invasion does not press itself upon the New World, however; nor will it -be anything more than academic so long as the British Isles themselves ar& not overrun by a rerman army. Speaking more broadly, out of a much greater ‘nowledge of North America than of Europe, it might be helpful to point out that no European Power could ever invade Canada without caus- ing a tremendous commotion and arousing the keenest apprehension in the United States; and that, too, is said without the slightest reference te the Monroe doctrine. Canadians and Ameri- cans have been living in North America together for some 300 years, and they will be living here side by side for at least 300 years to come. No European power could ever attempt to conquer Canada without carefully weighing the probabili- ties of having the United States to conquer at the same time; and this is offered as a purely aca- demic contribution to a subject as remote in its character as one pleases. - Yet what far-reaching effects may not be imag- Bos "4% : f : 7&4 ae ined. as coming possibly from Canada’s partici - . & Ey a4 i . . . ees Ty " ‘ Ss « ~ Ss a y e : - 4 — % ‘that were made the other day by Dr. pation in the wars of the British empire. The first step was taken in the Boer War, when the Dominion sent a contingent to the battlefields of South Africa. Now Canadians, by throwing their military weight into the wars of continental Europe, are laying the foundation of issues which may be dismissed as remote yet which in time, perhaps, will leave their marks upon history. GERMANY’S DENIAL. Philadelphia Inquirer: From some remarks Bernard Dernburg, former Colonial Secretary of the Ger- man Government, or that were attributed to him, the inference was somewhkew Rastily drawn that Germany had communicae to the Department of State at Washington a formal recognition of the Monroe doctrine and an assurance of its in- tention to respect it. This would have been an extraordinary concession and one for which there is no precedent. What is known as the Monroe doctrine is no more than a declaration of national policy on the part of the United States. It has never been embodied in any international agree- ment. It has never been the subject to. that end or any diplomatic negotiation. It has never been formally accepted or acquiesced in by any other Power, nor has this country at any time sought or desired to erect it into a principle of interna- tional law. What happened was that last Sept. 3 the Ger- man Ambassador informed the State Department that he had been “instructed by his Government ‘to deny most emphatically the rumors to the effect that Germany intends, in case she comes out victorious in the present war, to seek expansion in South America.”’. That is obviously a very dif- ferent thing from the recognition supposed to have been made of the Monroe doctrine as a prin- ciple of international law. MARSHAL WOULD A MAN HAVE ESCAPED? New York World: To have sent a woman to the electric chair on the statements of a colored maid whose testimony was directly challenged in essential respects would have been to accept a re- sponsibility that few persons would care to bear. Too much room for doubt existed, too many ele- ments of mystery entered into the case, to permit of the conclusion that impartial justice demanded the lifé of another woman. It is easy to argue that the written law, in its sternness, makes no distinctions of sex. Juries are often moved by influences beyond their power ts» express. Sympathies too vague for words, hes- itancy not arising only from the nature of the evidence and the appearance and manner of the witnesses, are likely to sway their decisions un- known to themselves. But it would be absurd to say that Mrs. Carman escaped conviction out of a feeling of-mercy toward her as a wife and moth- er The real question is, Would a man in the same circumstances have been convicted of mur- der on the same showing of facts? NO PARTICULAR MORAI. Philadelphia Inquirer: In view of the con- flicting evidence and the personality of the ac- cused, the disagreement of the Carman jury will occasion little or no surprise. If the testimony of the colored girl had been believed, conviction must have followed, but this witness had contradicted herself to an extent which materially impaired her credibility. It does not seem likely, if Mrs. Carman had committed the crime, that she would have made the incriminatory and gratuitous ad- missions she was alleged to have done, while her own statement in denial of having done so was sufficiently coherent and straightforward: to be reasonably convincing. Evidently, however, some of the jurors had been VORWA RTS ‘<Blucher’s loyalty saved the cause of Europe. ’’—Major-General Sir J. F. Maurice, K. C. B. Here’s to him who, bruised and ill, Wrote from Wavre, “Come I will!” Gneisenau said yea and nay, He would go and he would stay; Vorwarts scarce could sit his steed, Vorwarts marched in England’s need: He was two and seventy then— Here’s to him and all his men! Bulow’s corps is fresh for fight; Bulow leads, but rear and right, Corps of Pirch and corps of Ziethen, Battered, famished, but unbeaten, Up the height and down the hollow, On from Wavre follow, follow; Thunder, growling far away, Tells where England stands at bay. Westward through the drenched lanes faring, arimly went they, sweating, swearing, Deeper still in mire and muck, Till the batteries sank and stuck, Gun-teams floundering to the knees, Gun-wheels to the axle-trees, And the men sat down and sobbed, While the thunder swelled and throbbed. Blood-red spur, and eyes ablaze, Blucher rode the trampled ways— “Hundert Teufel! what is here?” But they answered, “Father, dear, Can thy children thrust and flog Through this barbarous, Belgian bog? Half the guns to hell are gone; Father, dear, we can’t get on,” “Can’t get on? But yonder—hark! Hear ye not the bulldog’s bark? Shall the Englanders allege That your father broke his pledge? Shame it were, if that should be! Children, children, follow me! I am sworn to Wellington— Sapperment: We must get on.” Thus he spake; and panting, steaming, Hugely heaving and blaspheming, On his batteries lurched and rumbled, On his columns reeled and stumbled; But from Wavre Thielman wrote, “I have Grouchy at my throat, Backward here the game's begun, And the odds are two to one.”’ “Two to one,” quoth Vorwarts. ‘So! Donnerwetter! it will go, If, bei Gott, till close of day, Thielmann hold them all in play; But we cannot help him «here, Not one saber can we spare; What though Thielmann stand or fall, Yon’s the great game, forward all!” Came a redcoat, racing through— “What, in God’s name, what are you’ “Black Hussars that ride before Graf von Bulow’s army corps; Back to Wavre, miles on miles, You shall find his sweltering files— Hark! they roll the Prussian drums!

The foundation of the case for the prosecution was jealousy, and that Mrs. Carman was jealous she frankly admit- ted when she installed the eavesdropping dicto- graph. There seems to be no particular moral except the obvious one that a jealous woman is not well fitted to be a doctor’s wife. NOT SURPRISING. Pittsburg Leader: The disagreement of the jury in the case of Mrs. Florence Conklin Car- man is not surprising to the many who follow proceedings in such cases. When the trial began the Leader stated that the. Prosecuting Attorney had a very slim chance for sending Mrs. Carman to the electric chair. Sub- sequent events have shown the _ substantial grounds upon which this statement was based. The Leader did not base its statement entirely upon the evidence that would be submitted, but almost wholly upon precedent. It is difficult to secure a dozen men who are willing to send either a man or woman to the electric chair on circumstantial evidence. It is the nature of all juries to give prisoners at the bar the benefit of doubts. — A woman who is attractive in appearance and surrounded by influential friends has the great- est opportunity to benefit through the existence of doubts as to her guilt. NO TANGIBLE TESTIMONY. Pittsburg Press: Just what the New York District Attorney will do in view of the Carman jury’s disagreement is not the easiest thing in the world to guess. The prisdner’s friends are quoted as expressing a belief that she will not again be placed on trial. But it is perhaps of some sig- nificance that the District Attorney says noth- ing. He tried the case as if there was not the least doubt in his mind of the woman’s guilt. If he.is as sure of this as his manner indicated, he will probably not allow her to go forth a free woman until he has made an attempt to explode the “mysterious man” evidence with which the defemse brought about the disagreement. However, the witnesses who supplied this evi- dence have only to stick to their testimony to cre- ate a legal doubt by which another jury would be affected much as this one was. There was little or nothing in the testimony that was tangible. There was no effort to identify, locate or describe the man, or suggest what could have been his mo- tive. There accordingly seems to be little chance of the State’s proving the “mysterious man’s” nonexistence. It need not be surprising if the State concludes that the task is beyond its re- sources and concedes the jealous wife her liberty. STILL A MYSTERY. New York Times: The prosecution was based on a theory, and it does not matter in the least whether or not that was a theory widely enter- tained. The law has nothing to do with popular theories. The disagreement cannot be considered a result of the conduct of the defense. Mrs. Car- man’s own testimony was coherent and not sert- onsly shaken in a severe cross-examination, but no successful effort was made to confuse the sit- uation, to divert suspicion. The tale of the un- known man who jumped the fence was of no consequence as evidence. Therein lies the weak- ness of the defense. The expectation that some new turn*might be given to Freeport’s mystery was not fulfilled. But it is still a mystery, never- theless. JURY SYSTEM VINDICATED. Washington Post: The system which has been in effect in the Urited States since the Gov- } ernment was founded has been vindicated. There have been some instances where men and women have been convicted and even executed, only to be exonerated by the confession of the real culprit many years afterward, but such cases, thanks to the safeguards of the jury system, have been few and far between. Suspicion, once pointed against a man or a woman, is invariably cumulative. Many innocent acts may seem to give support to the original suspicion. Circumstantial evidence, therefore, ts always dangeroys. and unless a complete case can be made out “beyond a reasonable doubt, in freeing a defendant et pur ‘he risk of innocent blood, | ; Business Prospects | Brightening COTTON LOGAING UP. Washington Post: The President is authority for the statement that the cotton situation is \ improving and that it may be expected to improve steadily. Spinners in England are anxious to ‘keep their factories going, as they have heavy .orders to fill, ‘they and they would buy liberally if were assured that prices were right and that present prices would not be followed by a *ruinous slump. American manufacturers are in practically the same situation, although they have no large orders requiring immediate decision ou their part. Since two-thirds of the human race is dependent upon the South for cotton, and since cotton must be used, war or no war, there is ground for hope that the bales now piled up in the South will move toward the market in spite of artificial obstacles. ' FEELING BETTER IN TEXAS. San Antonio Light: Wheat is arriving at Gal- veston now at the rate of 200 carloads a day. More than a dozen ships are now in the harbor, } loading grain and others are en route for cargoes. Exporters are urging grain men in Texas to “rush shipments,” for Europe is sending cablegrams every day asking quick action on its order. Europe is buying cotton, too.. Five steamships have cleared from Galveston this month with car- goes of cotton for foreign shippers. Southern cotton mills are running on full sched now and substantial war orders for goods are dally being placed in this part of the country. Con- servative cotton men say the situation is clear- ing. Grain men say they can’t get enough grain to supply their customers. Cattlemen are send-— ing armed guards along with their shipments, so precious have their steers become since the war. And still a lot of people have the nerve to say that “the war has killed business.” A BRIGHTER OUTLOOK. Springfield Republican: The financial situa- tion brightened perceptibly yesterday. The break in sterling exchange down to 4,90, less than 1 cent above normal, carried exchange to its lowest point since the week before the war began. While several causes may be mentioned, the most potent ts doubtless the rapid increase in exports of goods. War orders for belligerents are finally making themselves felt in deliveries and creating credits abroad which tend to balance our current foreign indebtedness. Reports of increasing foreign trade are certainly conspicuous in the news of the day. The French order for.a million pairs of soldiers’ boots, made known yesterday, is a sample of the foreign trade now gaining headway. BLANKETS IN DEMAND. Fiber and Fabric; If there is a mill, large or small, that is equipped to produce army blankets, that is not well supplied with orders, we shuuld be pleased to hear from them, as we have been asked to get in touch with mills that can take orders for rush business on blankets. The business to be offered is for the armies of the European nations now at war, and satisfa.tory — arrangements will be made for payments. The chief questjen is quick delivery, as the approach of winter makes it imperative to supply millions of wool blankets at the earliest possible moment. The present war is going to make the demand for woor clothing unprecedented, and neither Ra- gland, France, Belgium nor Germany can begin to — supply the needs of their soldiers, so the United States must be drawn upon heavily, both for cloth- ing and coverings. The most pressing demand is for cheap blankets, and the rag and waste markets as well as the woo! market are beginning to feel the pressure for raw stock. ‘ In Lighter Vein | The war horse that snuffs the battle from afar averages about three snuffs these days.—Wash- ington Post. | Britannia may rule the waves, but the question now is, Who rules the bottom of the sea?—Min- neapolis Journal.

Smith of 14 North Kine’s highway, who died suddenly of heart disease yesterday in Washington, D. C., will be buried in Pittsburg, Pa., temorrow. His dd@ughter, Miss Edna Smith, and the Rev. William Wirt King. pastor of the Grace M. E. Church, Wa- terman avenue and Skinker road, de- parted at once to attend the funeral, Bishop Smith died at the home of Justice Anderson of the District Su- {preme Court, where he was being en- tertained while attending a conference claimants’ meeting of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He was born in Fayette County, Pa., Jan. 30, 1840, and was ordained in 1859. He served as pastor in many parts of the country. He was elevated to the bishopric of the Methodist Church in 1908, and immediately moved to St. Louis. Prior to this he had been pastor in Pittsburg for 20 years, a presiding elder four years, and editor of the Pitts- burg Christian Advocate for more than 15 years. He was active in all departments of church work, and was said to have had the “legal mind” ofthe Board of Bishops. Appalling Waste of the European War Continued From Page Thirteen. The gasoline to feed them had been exhausted and the whole 15 had been set on fire. In war this was necessary, but it was none the less waste. When an army takes the field it must consider first its own safety; and to em- barrass the enemiy everything else must be sacrificed. It cannot con- sider the feelings or pockets of rail- road and telegraph companies. It cannot hesitate to destroy a bridge, because that bridge cost half a mil- lion dollars. And it does not hesi- tate. Some Cannot Be Restored. Motoring from Paris to the front these days is a question of avoiding roads rendered uSeless because a broken bridge has cut them in half. All over France are these bridges of iron, of splendid masonry, some deco- rated with statues, some dating back hundreds of years, but now with a span blown out or entirely destroyed and sprawling in the river. All of these material things, motor cars. stone bridges, railroad tracks, tele- graph lines, can be replaced. Money can restore them. But money cannot restore the noble trees of France and Belgium, 80 years old or more, that shaded the roads, that made beauti- ful the parks and forests. For mili- tary purposes they have been cut down, or by artillery fire shattered into splinters. They will again grow, but 80 years is a long time to wait. Nor can money replace the greatest waste of all, the waste in ‘‘killed, wounded and missing.’”’ The waste of human life in this war is so enormous, so far beyond our daily experience, that disasters less appalling are much easier understood. The loss of three people in an automobile accident comes nearer home than the fact that at the battle of Sezanne 30,000 men were Killed. Few of us are trained to think of men in such numbers; certainly not of dead men in such numbers. We have seen 30,000 men together only during the world’s series or at the championship football matches. To get an idea of the waste of this war we must imagine all of the spectators at a football match between Yale and Harvard § suddenly stricken dead. We must think of all the wives, children, friends affected by the loss of those 30,000 and we must multi- ply those 30,000 by hundreds and imagine these hundreds of thousands lying dead in Belgium, in Russia, in Alsace-Lor- raine and within ten miles of Paris. After the Germans were repulsed at Meaux and at Sezanne the dead of both armies were so many that they lay intermingled in layers of three and four deep. They were buried in long pits and piled on top of each other like cigars in a box. Lines of fresh earth so long that you mistook them for trenches intended to conceal regiments Some bodies lay for days uncovered until they had lost ®aw human semblance. They were so many you ceased to regard them even as corpses. They had become just a part of the waste, a part of the shattered walls, uprooted trees. and fields plowed by shells. What once had been your fellow men were only bun- dles of clothes, shapeless, like scare- crows stuffed with rags. The wounded were hardly less pitiful. They were so many and so quickly did they fall, that the ambulance service sufficient to handle them. They lay in the fields or forest sometimes for a day before they were picked up, suffering unthinkable agony. And after they were placed in cars and started back towards Paris the tortures continued. Some of the trains of wound- ed that arrived outside the city had not been opened in two days. The wounded had been without food or water. They had not been able to move from the po- sitions in which, in torment, they had thrown themselves. The foul air had produced gangrene. And when the cars were opened, the stench was so fearful that the Red workers fell back as though from a blow. For the wounded Paris is full of hos- ritals—French, English and American And the hospitals full of splendid men. Each one had been physically fit, or he would not have been passed to the front, and those among them are officers are finely bred, finely edu- eated, or they would not be officers But each matc'ed his good health, good breeding and knowledge against a broken piece of shell, or a steel bullet, and the shell or bullet won. Thess ways will win. Stephen Crane called a wannd ea red badses af eourazcea Li tes (“ross are his ni- who! all of that, and the man who wears that | badge has all my admiration.

All cosmetics clog the pcres. In cool weather this inter- feres greatly with eliminatioh of waste material, injuring instead of aia:ing the complexion.

Minute particles of scarf skin come off day by day. causing not the least pain or discomfort.

By RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. LTHOUGH I have seen the “fare-' A well tours” of certain other famous players repeated again and again until they assumed something of the as- pect of a more or ss pathetic joke, I am inclined to believe that, when Forbes-Robertson bids us good-by at the close of his:own “farewell” engagement in St. Louis next week, it will be good- by in sad reality. There are three potent factors, one no- ble and two ignoble, that prevail to for- bid a great player’s voluntary retire- ment from the stage. The first of these is the artist’s joy in fhe exercise of his art. The second is personal vanity. The third is avarice. These must. needs be considered in weighing the chances of Ferbes-Robertson’s return to the foot- lights in years to come. That this distinguished English player loves his art no one familiar with his devoted service to the drama may deny. It will not be a happy moment in his life when the curtain falls for the last time on a stage upon which. thereafter, he shall be seen no more. My own con- viction, however, is that Forbes-Rob- ertgon thoughtfully has chosen the mo- ment for his abandonment of a cherished task. If now he voluntarily denies him- self a further performance of that task, two points of vital import to an artist who respects his art and himself are gained beyond peril of later losing. He leaves upon the world’s mind the strong- est impression of his task’s best per- formance. He safeguards his art against the peculiar shame born of its once masterful exercise degenerated into im- potence that becomes almost ridiculous even while poignantly deplorable. Against—a resolution thus justified, only the two ignoble factors of personal vanity and avarice can prevail to lead any great player into the pitiable folly that causes him to “lag superfluous on the stage."””" My own estimate of Forbes- Robertson places him as the most mod- est and unassuming actor whom I have ever known. Happily, he does not need money. Still more happily, if all the signe upon which a judgment of charac- ter is based hold good, he does not love money for money's sake. Undoubtedly he might easily earn another $100,000 or so on the American stage if he were willing to come for it in sheer greed of gold. I do not believe he will thus come. When I have seen Forbes-Robertson for the last time next week, I shall ~ cps most vividly remember him “Hamilet,”’ in “The Passing of the tr Floor Back” and in “Caesar and Cleopatra."’ Three Players Who Now Will Be Seen on St. Louis Stages ROSE MELVILLE in “SIS HOPKINS” AMBIeICAN & “9 MOLLIE MCINTYFE in “KIT TY MACKAY SHUBERT REGINA RICHAIEDS _ PRINCE of PILSEN ovyespic | aes Here, as it so chances, is a curious trinity of character-creations thar strangely converge toward one common center, radically a re they be. In his Hamlet we contemplate a marvelously luminous picturing of weak and ineradicable Doubt; of heart-break- ing spiritual instability, of a wistfully helpless questioning of Life and of the , eternal verities that gladly would re- \goive itself into sturdy Belief if sturdy Relief were possible to a temperament s0 waveringly self-cursed. In ‘“‘The Pass- ing of the Third Floor Back” we sev an almost divine embodiment of simple Faith, gentle, loving, all-conquerful in tenderness, well-nigh supernatural in benignance of soul, with an unshakable trust in the kindred goodness of God and man, deeply serene and sure of its anchorage. And in the Caesar of Ber- nard Shaw’s profoundly ironic “Caesa: and Cleopatra” we encounter the Pagan cynic incarnate, grim, powerful, sar- Gonic, a bit weary, yet chucklingly humorous on occasion, greatly frank and as greatly subtle, imperially self-suf- ficient, a formidable materialist whe laugh’s in Life’s face with splendid Roman hardihood. The setting of these When I saw Ferbes-Robertson’s three characters—H et, the Passer-|| first New York essayal of Shylock By and Caesar—face’to face in itself fast November I ventured the asser- creates an intensely dramatic contrast tion that he was at fault in go play- in psychology. ing the part as to diminish to tha And in these three characters, it seems |iowest possible emphasis the greed to me, Forbes-Robertson's genius has at-|.¢ usury ; with which the character is tained its highest achievement and its/so bitterly stamped and in magnify- most convincing revelation. ing instead the revelation of that nobler Shylock passion, the justified resentment of the. Jew as one of a ruthlessly persecuted and unjustly stigmatized people. Prompt issue was taken with this view, yet still, in reading my Shakspeare, I find my- self unable to concede the truthful- ness of the Forbes-Robertson por- trait along the lines of his New York performance. It seems to me that Shakspeare himself convincingly and with undisguised venom made it im- perative upon the world to accept the ignoble chagrin of the baffled money-lender as the dominant mo- tive of Shylock’s hatred of the mer- chant Antonio and of his bloodthirsty lust for the forfeited pound of flesh from Antonio's body. My warrant for this belief I find in the keynote ut- terance which Shaksreare puts into the mouth of Shylock in the third scene of the first act of “The Mer- chant of Venice.” This all-illuminat- ing speech, an “aside” of Shylock's as he looks upon the entering An- tonlo, come to borrow the 3000 ducats needed by his friend Bassdnio, reads as follows: “How like a fawning publican he tional pang that would come from fre- membering a veritable flesh-and-blood lad of inexpressible anguish in the grip of a ruthless and man-mocking Fate. The profoundest tragedy of this great- est of Shakspeare’s plays, the highest utterance of its ultimate cry of human bafflement in the web of Destiny, have never, I believe, been more completely attained than in Forbes-Robertson’s playing. And it is deeply significant that En- gland, Germany and America are one in giving to the Hamlet of Forbes-Robert- son a world-pre-eminence in greatness. The Othello, ‘Macbeth and Shylock of Forbes-Robertson’'s playing, while of sincere distinction in certain im- portant essentials, have not so sig- nally heightened his fame as has his Hamlet. His conception of Shylock, it seems to me, is at variance with Shakspeare’s obvious intent in the racially prejudiced spirit which plainly dictated the merciless cartoon-draw- ng of that character. Hise Hamlet, however, marks the su- premest height of Forbes-Robertson's gaining and, in the austere nobility of ite conception and realization, constf tutes the foundation stone upon which his fame as one of the immortals of the world’s stage needs mist rest. It is, I take it, a truth beyond dis- pute that Forbes-Robertson stands in critical esteem as the greatest living ney Booth, by Nature's own equipment a Hemiet incarnate, I doubt if a more Hamiet than that of ‘s playing has ever meen. More fully than any other of my knowing, he imbues the with a certain futile loftiness, a leoks! . _ “2 bate him, for be is a Christian; “BUT MORE, FOR THAT, IN LOW SIMPLICITY, “HE LENDS OUT MONEY GRATIS, AND BRINGS DOWN “THE RATE OF USANCBDB HERE WITH US IN VENICE, “lf I can catch him once upon the hip, ‘T will feed fat the ancient grudge I bear him!” Here, it seems to me, and beyond all controverting, is Shakspeare’s own statement of the “Shylock motive’ con- trolling the central action of this drama and explaining Shylock across the foot- lights of the stage of all time. I do not understand how anyone can deny or seek to obscure this truth without in- tentionally distorting Shakspeare’s own drawing of the Shylock figure. And I contend now, as I contended a year ago, that, just to this extent, Forbes-Robert- son defaults in the fidelity of his por- trait to the original Shakspearean con- ception and intent. It is not at all a question of the truth- fulness or justice of Shakspeare’s own drawing. That has been settled long ago by the proper classification of Shy- lock as a particularly envenomed libel upon his race. But as Shylock the Jew was made by Shakspeare, so must he be played, precisely as Shakspeare’s three other smashing melodrama villains, Iago, the Italian; Richard III, the En- glishman, and Macbeth, the Scotchman, must be played—in all the blackness and unadulterated guile of their Shak- spearean creation. There’s no getting away from this truth. Happily, however, for the sake of peace, no Shylock controversy is to be aroused by Forbes-Robertson’s fareweil offerings in St. Louis next week. It is a reasonable certainty that every St. Louis lover of Shakspeare—and there are many such—Will see the Hamlet of Forbes-Robertson’s. presenting during this engagement. It is good to hear, too, that there will be an especially large attendance of school children at the Saturday matinee performance of the play. Genuinely noble stage aspira- tion and achievement are rare now,) as always. The upcoming generation shoauld not be denied opportunity to contém-) plate drama in its highest expression. As for their elders—well, as life goes, it ‘s one of the penalties of age that fare- wells to old friends departing must needs be voiced with ever-increasing frequency. Believe me when I say that the fall of the last curtain on Forbes- Robertaon’s “Hamlet” will send more than a little heart-ache to the gray- heads across the footlights.

»\ Marion Reedy. ' Jater, TQ EXTEND LINES Commission Can Only Instruct Company to Apply to City for Permission to Lay Tracks. ROUTE CHANGES OPPOSED Civic Organization Representa- tives Say Merchants Block Pro- posed Car Track Extensions. Chairman Atkinson of the Missouri Public Service Commission in a state- ment at the hearing on street railway service at the Planters Hotel yesterday made clear to the advocates of im- proved conditions that the commission is powerless to force the United Rail- ways to put in additional loops or to make extensions of its lines. Atkinson told the representatives of several civic org?rnizations that the ilcommission can only instruct the com- pany to apply to the Municipal Assem- bly for permission to lay tracks and that the new loops in the downtown dis- tricts and extensions of lines recom- ‘mended by .Chief Engineer Harrop of the commision wil] depend solely on the granting of authority by the city for the new work if the commission decid to recommend it. | Merchants Oppose Changes. Representatives of the organizations had expressed the hope that the com- mission had the power to force needed. extensions, and said after the hearing that they feared the extensions would not be built if authority must be ob- tained from the city, They said that neighboring interests usually defeated such proposed extensions or changes of routing because of a failure to agree on routes, and that efforts in the past to get authority for an extension of the Fourth street line west on Lafayette avenue from Grand avenue failed be- @w-~4e some merchants on South Grand @Raue did not want the car line taken from them. Marrop’s report recommended tracks om Tenth, Eleventh and St. Charles street and Lucas avenue to provide ad- ditional loops, as well as a loop over TAndell avenue and Grand avenue from Channing and Olive street. Extensions of the Hamilton, Jefferson, Taylor, Grand, Seventh and Fourth lines were récommended. The commission adjourned at noon yesterday to a date to be announced when additional witnesses on street-car conditions will be heard. Objects to Harrov’s Report. ; Ephraim Caplan, attorney for the West End Business Men's Association, placed several witnesses on the stand yesterday to object to parts of Harrop’s report. L. S. Haslam, an attorney and member of the Committee on Streets of the Civic League, was the principal wit- ness. He opposed the laying of tracks on Lindell avenue and on Tenth and Eleventh streets. He urged the Hodia- mont cars should be routed north on Twelfth street from Locust to Washing- ton avenue and thence west to Thir- teenth Tocust street between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets should be taken up. He also urged a change in the Olive- Maryland line, by which Maryland cars would be routed south on Buclid avenue from Maryland to Laclede avenue, and make use of the Laclede loop in Forest Park. He said the system of running the cars backward for a block on Mary- land avenue, as now in effect, is dan- gerous and should be stopped. PROMINENT ST.

When Bagg, unable to pay his board bill, Changed his lodgings, he left his trunk behind. The landlady seized the trunk, and after examining its contents handed the secret papers over to Franklin Pierce, who was the attorney for the Citizens’ Committee which was con- cerned in the case of the District At- torney’s office. Among these papers were discovered the actual vouchers for the money paid by the Metropolitan Street Railway ‘Co. for the false evidence by means of which ; it had swindied Harriet Nugent and driven Benjamin Oppenheim from his profession. With these documents in his hands Op- Ppenheim saw his way clear to obtain a’ public vindication of his character ,and also to revive Harriet Nugent’s claim against the railway comnpany. The inquiry into Oppenheim’'s case was conducted by former Justice Henry A. Gildersleeve, acting as official referee for the appellate division of the Supreme Court. Confronted with the original vouchers, the former witnesses against Oppenheim, were compelled to disclose all the details of the transaction, and on Dec. 24, 1912, Referee Gildersleeve reported that the Metropolitan Street Railway Co.’s witnesses had been brihed by the company to give perjured testi- mony, that Harriet Nugent was entitled to the full amount of her original judg- tnent of $5000 against the railway, with interest for 15 years, and that Oppen- heim, being entirely innocent of the charges upon which he had been dis- barred, should be reinstated.

This was the fourth time that a court poset easy ’ terms. of New York State had directed the Met- ropolitan people to pay Harriet Nugent $5000. On April 3, 1913, Benjamin Oppenheim and Benjamin E. Messler, representing Harriet Nugent, applied to Judge E. H. Lacombe for an order instructing the re- ceiver of the Metropolitan Street Rail- way Co. to pay to Harriet Nugent the amount of her judgment, with interest. In support of thisfapplication counsel argued that the money had been made available for this payment by an order of court dated June 28, 1912, signed by Judge Lacombe himself, who had also granted permission to Harriet Nugent to file the judgment of her claims, pending their confirmation by the Supreme Court, and that as this confirmation had been received the order to pay the mony would merely give execution to a judg- ment already finally recorded. It was further pointed out that the debt owing to Harriet Nugent was not based upon a business transaction in which the creditor took an ordinary commercial risk, but represented pay- ment in legally determined recompense for terrible injuries inflicted on the pe- titioner; that the debt has arisen many years ago and would have been paid many years ago had not the debtor, by means of the most vile and corrupt methods, succeeded in defying the de- crees of the State’s courts, and finally, that the effect of a refusal to grant the order would be to allow the Metro- politan Street Railway Co. to be the beneficiary of its own proved criminal acts. In the face of these arguments, Judg2 E. H. Lacombe refused to grant the or- der, on the ground that if he did so ‘e would be inflicting an injustice upon the business creditors of the railway company. The spectacle with which the public is now confronted is that of the Metro- politan Street Railway Co. still in pos- session of the money which has been awarded by the courts to Harriet Nu- gent four times during the past 15 years, whilst the victim of its avarice, of its perjury and of its corruption awaits, maimed, heartbroken and starving, an- other opportunity to make an attempt upon her own life.

ONE IS WORK OF SYMONS Curttor Places Artist Among Strongest Portrayers of Na- ture in America, Two recently-acquired paintings will be on exhibition today in the City Art Museum in Forest Park. Two other paintings, one of which will be on ex- hibition today, are being considered for acquisition by the museum. Gardner Symons’ painting, ‘“‘Through Snowclad Hills and Valley,” which has been one of the talked-of pictures of the fall exhibition, has been purchased with the city tax fund. Symons is one of the strongest exponents of the American school of expressive nature portrayal, according to F, E. A, Curley, curator of the museum. A picture by Childe Hassam, called “Diamond Cove, Island of Shoals,’’ has been purchased with the income of the W. K. Bixby American art acquisition fund, and has been added to the Bixby fund collection. It was hung yester- day in Bixby room, and will be seen in St. Louis today for the first time. Charles W. Hawthorne’s ‘‘Adoration,”’ which Curley describes as ‘‘one of the unusual productions of the year in American art,’’ is also being considered for purchase by the museum, Elliot W. Daingerfield’s ‘‘An Arcadian Huntress,” is on exhibition at the mu- seum, and tentative plans have been made for its acquisition. The big exhibition of American paint- ings has been rehung for today, after the return of a number of them from the annual show at the Chicago Art In- stitute. These pictures are to be taken down tomorrow for shipment to other exhibtiions or to be returned to their owners, ROBBER BINDS AND GAGS WOMAN, TAKES $10 BILL Thief Forces Way Into House, Then Ransacks Place Till Money Is Found. Mrs. Ella Backs, 44 years old, of 1004 Market street, told the police a stranger entered her home at 10 a. m. yesterday, searched the house, ob- tained a $10 bill, then gagged her and tied her hands to the bedpost. She was liberated 15 minutes later by her 18-year-old son, William, when he returned from work. Mrs. Backs said the robber was about 40 years old. He knocked on her door and, when she opened it. pushed in, drew a_e revolver and threatened her life if she screamed. She had four 25-cent pieces tied in a handkerchief, and a $10 bill in her hand. These, she said, she hid in her dress. The man ransacked the house, opening a folding bed in his search. He found a $10 bill in a water pitcher. FARM FOR DELINQUENT WOMEN IS PROPOSED Protective League to Meet Wednesday to Frame Appeal to the Legislature. The Women’s Protective League will meet Wednesday morning at the Plan- ter’s Hotel to adopt plans to petition the Legislature for an appropriation for a farm for delinquent women. The league, which was active in the movement which resulted in the aboli- tion of the segregated district last spring, believes more good can be ac- complished in helping fallen women by allowing them to live on a farm under State supervision than by sending them to the workhouse in default of payment of fines imposed in police courts. Large Brass Bedstead Given Free to Purchasers of Household Outfits. As an encouragement to Cupid in his November work of bringing about mar- riages, the St. Louis House Furnishing Co., 902-4-6 Franklin avenue, will give away a large brass bedstead with each outfit purchased at the store. These outfits are especially grouped and de- signed for newly weds and for couples who are now doing light housekeeping in furnished rooms; The free brass bed- stead offer is expected to change the method of living of many persons who now have only one room to call “Home, Sweet Home.” The three-room outfit that the St. Louis House Furnishing Co. has on sale is as complete in every de- tail as the purchase price can make it. This price is $148.75, and the purchase may be made on easy terms. The easy terms that the firm has established is given. by the managers as one of the chief reasons that, despite any talk of hard times, the concern’s delivery system is kept busy all of the time and the sales progression with the growth of the city.

LOUIS POST- vusraroai } GRAY HAIR TURNS TS NATUR DARK COLOR AFTER APPLYING ve SAE TA When Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens’ So Beautifully that Nobody Can Tell; Takes Off Dandruff, | Almost every one knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com- pounded, brings back the natural color and luster to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also cures dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays skilled chemists do this better than ourselves. By asking at any drug store for the ready-to- use product—called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound’ — you will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Some druggists make their own but it’s usually too sticky, so ‘insist upon getting ‘heen ” which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is the best remedy for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp ana to stop falling hair.

You dampen & sponge or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time.

The length of the stay in St. Louis all depends upon the weather. In the recelving line will be 2600 chrys- anthemum plants, bearing from one tv 5000 blossoms, and 36 debutant chrysan- themums, who will make their bow to the public. “Golden Age,”’ “‘Miss Nellie Pockett,”’ “Chrysolora” and “Col. Ap- pleton”’ will head the reception line and will be followed by 1000 other yellow va- rieties. Then will follow those gowned* in snowy white—‘‘Honesty,” ‘Early Snow,” “‘“Rob Roy,” the bonny Scotch lass, and a host of other beauties. Next will come those wearing robes of rich bronze and deep, warm reds. Those gowned in pink, lavender and the deeper mauves for the center of the second division, while standing back of them will be the 35 debutante “mums,” gowned in white, pink, lavender, cham- paign, bronze and wine. History to Be Related. The botanists and floriculturists of the Missouri Botanical Garden will act as interpreters and tell those desiring to know “who is who” in chrysanthe- mumdom. They will give the chrysan- themum family tree, pointing out the insignificant looking ‘‘Indicum,” from which all chrysanthemums originated. The specimen shown has been grown in a pyramidal form, and is covered with a countless number of small yel- low flowers and buds. Much attention and study has been given to the color arrangement of the Chrysanthemum Show this year. The yellow varieties are grouped at tle en- trance, the intense colors, ‘‘golden age,” “Nellie Pockett,”” running the scale to the cream color, which blends into the white. Then after the white follows the opal, champaigne and light bronze colors, blending into the deep bronzes and the wines and maroons. The strong colors are placed at either end of the conserva- tory. This arrangement produces color waves which are pleasing to the eye. The pinks and lavendere are arranged in the center of the second section. here are seven types shown—the sin- gle, pompon, anemone, incurve, reflex, hairy and Japanese, and slight varia- tions of these types. One striking varia- tion is the quill petal anemone. The single types are much on the form of the common field daisy, with vellow center and rays. The pompon is almost spherical in form and the petals numer- ous and compact. The anemone type is similar to the single except that there may be more than one row of petals and the center forms a cushion. In the incurve type the petals curve toward the center. In the reflex type the petals curve backward. Names of New Varicties. The petals of the Fairy type are cov- ered with tiny hairs, and may be either reflex or incurve. The petals of the Jap- anese type are broader, the outer petals taking on the reflex characteristic, while the center one are inclined to in- curve in some varieties, while in others they are flat. There will be 35 new varieties Shown. While they will not be labeled individ- ually, they will be grouped and labeled as the “New varieties.” Among the new varieties shown are the “Howard Gould,” a large deep yellow, reflex type; “William Meredith,” large flow- ered, deep bronze, reflex type; ‘‘Mrs. E. King,” large flowered, yellow, reflex type; ‘“‘“Golden King,” a superb golden yellow, large flowered, incurve type: “Poughkeepsie,” large flowered, deep Lack of Inspection Will Cause Accidents : One out of every 11 men employed in train service is killed or permanently injured, making more than 50,000 annually. Railway employes are taxed to bury the dead, relieve the hunger of widows and orphans, and enormous sums thus spent are removed from the uses of ordinary commerce. You Can Help Save These Lives and Limbs Freight train crews are now just the same size as 20 years ago, when trains were only 17 or 18 cars long. Now they run up to 100 cars— more than a mile long — and make double the speed. Safety cannot be had if trains ae UNDERMANNED. The “Full Crew Law” provides one more man on freight trains of OVER 40 CARS LONG. This extra man permits proper inspection of defective cars, detecting faults in early stages, thereby preventing accidents, which cause loss of life and limb, and the destruction of freight and equipment. Delayed trains prevented, means a saving to the public on perishable merchandise and live stock, etc. ® The “Full-Crew Law” was passed by the last Legislature by an overwhelming majority and approved by the Governor, and is now being submitted to your vote under the Referendum. This law is not an experiment in any sense of the word. In nine great states it is in full force and effect. New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Indiana, Arkansas, Washington, California and New Jersey have a “Full Crew Law.” The usé of such safety appliances as the Safety Car Coupler and the Air Brake was secured on American Railways only after years of appeal on the part of the employes and the public and the adoption of laws compelling «heir use. Now, you can help secure further safety if you Scratch “NO” and Vote “YES” By preventing accidents and saving the losses incurred thereby, railroads can give better service to the public, and should be able to reduce freight rates. The additional expense of the “Full Crew Law” to the railways Freight rates are controlled by State and National Governments. in Missouri will be only about 10 cents per car for each 100 miles the and they are now as high as the Railways can make them, and in none car travels. = gt of the States now having a “Full Crew Law’ in effect have freight rates Just look at the illustrations on the left and see how easy it is been advanced. for these things, if unnoticed, to cause accidents.

It means produc- tive citizens. It means fewer dependents on charity. It keeps wages in circulation. It means more well men to buy and consume your product. It means more expeditious delivery of live stock shipped to market, reducing the loss on shrinkage. It means quicker delivery of merchandise to and from your town. The “Full Crew Law” is aGOOD LAW for the RAILROAD COMPANIES, because: It saves the lives and limbs of their experienced and skilled men. It prevents the destruction of equipment and the loss of freigh., necessitating the payment of enormous freight claims. It gives the public better service, because of fewer delayed trains. It means more money to spend for equipment instead of damage claims. It keeps cars out of the repair shops, because one more man on the trains will do much to detect and repair broken parts, before they cause serious trouble. From the above chart, prepared from the sworn reports made by the Railroads to the United States Interstate Commerce Commission, it can readily be seen that in the United States the greater part of rail- way accidents are caused from defects in equipment, and it requires no argument to convince that if equip- " ment were better inspected and if freight trains were not undermanned there would be fewer accidents, Defects of equipment should not be charged against “Negligence of Employes” and particular attention is called to the above chart, which shows that the Interstate Commerce Commission reports only 5.15 per cent of accidents to “Neg- ligence of Employes.” Help to secure the proper manning of freight trains and the space in the above chart representing defects in equipment and defects in roadway will dwindle down to almost nothing. The “Full Crew Law” is a good law for YOU, the FARMER, the STOCK SHIPPER, the BUSINESS MAN, the RAILROAD EMPLOYE, and the RAILROAD COM- PANY, and it is fitting and proper that a law as praiseworthy as the “Full Crew Law” should be the first to be submitted to the people under the Referendum. There is just one question for you to decide, Mr. Voter. Are you in favor of CONSERVATION OF HUMAN LIVES or CONSERVATION OF DIVIDENDS? That is what you will vote upon. Be careful and vote on the RIGHT-HAND SIDE of the colunm, as it will be easy to make a mistake owing to the complicated ballot. Scratch ““NO’* so that you may vote ‘‘YES’’ on PROPOSITION NO." f

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 31.—Since Sept. ’4, when Secretary of State Bryan issued a formal announcement that no foreign country had withdrawn its promise to participate in the Panama-Pacific In- ternational Exposition, many large con- signments have reached San Francisco, and a number of chartered steamers will soon leave with great loads of ex- hibits for this city. The main exhibit section is complete. sculptors is 75 per cent completed. The landscaping of the Exposition grounds and courts is 8 per cent completed. Work has progressed far upon the “Zone,” the amusement section. It will represent an outlay of $10,000,000, and more than 7000 persons will be there employed during the exposition. In the vast section devoted to the pa- vilions of the nations and the buildings of the American States a large number of the huge edifices are finished and others rapidly nearing completion, German Building Being Erected. The German Kali Syndicate Building, constructed in part by the German Gov- ernment, is more than half finished and will be rushed to completion. The Ex- rosition headquarters in Berlin, estab- ished by important German industries, received applications for exhibit space from leading German firms two months after the outbreak of the war. The Danish. pavilion, now under con- struction, is a reproduction of the fa- mous Kronberg Castle at Elsinore, one of the fortresses which guard the ap- proach to Copenhagen. Work on the Italian pavilion, which in reality is a section of a typical] Ital- ian city and comprises seven different structures, is more than 15 per cent completed. A shipment of roses and bulbs is now ready in Belgium for shipment. France sent word after the declara- tion of war that there would be no change in her plans, and entries have been reteived from France in the live- stock, horticultural and other depart- inents. Turkey Has Pavilion. Turkey’s pavilion is a reproduction of a famous Turkish mosque. Among her exhibits will be 100 Arabian horses and Angora goats and blooded sheep. The Persian exhibit has been agssem- bled at Teheran and is awaiting ship- ment. It includes a priceless collection of rugs. The site of the Japanese Government ‘| pavilion covers 147,000 square feet. The structure is a reproduction of the famous Temple of Kinka Kuiji at Kioto, more than 1000 years old. The buildings are surrounded by beautiful Japanese gardens, the material for which, as well as for the buildings, are shipped from Japan, together with the native Japanese artisans and workmen. The imperial household has loaned the imperial art collection, gathered by the late Emperor Meiji. The Chinese pavilion—1l48 tons of ma- terial—were brought from China, It rep- resents an expenditure of $300,000 of the $750,000 appropriated. Exhibits From the Philippines, In the Philippine Building will be an extsunsive display of hemp, woods, ma- guey, sugar and tobacco, Increased exhibit space has been ap- plied for by the Cuban Commission. The _|exhibit will include royal palms 60 to 70 feet in height, and growing pineapples and hanana plants in fruit. From Central and South America will be shown, in the Palace of Horticulture, orchids in great variety of color and form; from Hawaii are coming tree ferns and banana plants; France and England are sending rare varieties of hothouse plants, and Japan will send a collection of lilies. Argentina’s appropriation is $1,300,000. Commissioner-General Anasagasti says: “In our exhibits we expect to be second to no country.” Australia has appropriated $400,000 for its exhibit. Her pavilion is 80 per cent completed, and New Zealand’s 2% per cent. The Slamese exhibit will consist larze- ly of a demonstration of the artistic de- velopment of the people. The Dutch East Indies are planning to join with the mother country in making an effective exhibit. Cochin-China, Indo-China and other Orien‘al lands will send delegates to participate in a brilliant pageant formed by the people of all the lands within the wide sweep of the Pacific Ocean.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS. _ LONDON, Nov. 1, 1:17 a. m.—Turkey has formally ‘annexed Egypt, according to a German official statement which has been received from Berlin by. the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. The British governmept tonight issued a statement which is tantamount to a declaration of war against Turkey. This was the vfficial announcement that the Turkish government summarily shut off communications with the British Embassy at Constanti- nople Friday, and that the British government must take whatever action is required to protect British interests and territory, and Kgypt from attacks made or threatened. Karlier in the day an effort was made to give Turkey one more chance, but communication with Constantinople was cut off and the British government acted on the situation existing before the break in communication. Turkey was asked by the Allies, acting jointly, for an expla- nation of the activities of her fleet, while demands are being made for the dismissal of the German naval officers and men and the dismantlement of the cruisers Goeben and Breslau, the transfer of which from the German to the Turkish flag is held to be illegal. It was impressed on Turkey, with all diplomatic force possible, that if she engages in war now, she must fight Great Britain and France, as well as Russia. It was also made known to her, that, if she and Germany make a losing fight, it means the complete elimination of Turkey in Europe. Correspondence Ceases, War Is Expected. The decision was put squarely up to Turkey, and her answer was awaited with the keenest interest, for if Turkey engages, there was thought to be little chance of the war not spreading. Now that correspondence has ceased, war is the alternative. Greece is- known to be ready to enter, and it will take only the slightest pressure by the Allies in Athens for the Greek forces to start operations against Turkey. Whether the Allies will consider this advisable depends on the course that Italy follows. Many competent observers here feel that the situation gives Italy ample justification for participation. Should Greece enter, it will be difficult to prevent the war frdéin spreading throughout the Balkans. Russian Fleet Attacks Turks in Black Sea. An official message has been received at Rome from Constantinople, according to a dispatch to London, announcing that the Russian fleet had attacked the*®Turkish fleet near Sebastopol, in the Black Sea. A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Co. from Athens said that the Russian Ambassador and his staff have left Constantinople. It is believed in official circles in Athens that the question of peace in the Balkans depend upon the attitude of Bulgaria. Russia Breaks Turkish Relations; Goeben’s Guns Keep Sultan in Line PETROGRAD, Oct. 31.—The semi-official Russian news agency says that, because of the attack of the German-Turkish warships against the Russian coast on the Black Sea, the Russian Government has enjoined the Russian Ambassador at Constantinople to announce to the Sublime Porte the rupture of diplomatic relations with Turkey, and his departure with all the members of his embassy and consulates. The protection of the interests of meldes subjects in Turkey bas bees confided to the Italian Government. The Turkish Ambassador here professes to know nothing officially of the acts of war committed in the name of his Government by a ship under German command, flying the Ottoman flag. He appealed to the Russian Foreign Office, where he was told that Russia’s attitude toward the Turkish Embassy here entirely depended on the attitude of the Turkish Government toward the Russian Ambassador in Constantinople. The evening papers report that the Germans have practically seized com- mand at Constantinople, and that the Goeben lies in the offing, with her big guns directed at the Sultan's Palace to compel acquiescence to Germany's plan of action. The bombardment of undefend#d commercial ports on the Black Sea has not caused alarm here, even in business circles. The publie evidenced its feelings last night by a great demonstration. The procession, carrying the flags of the Allied nations and singing national hymns, paraded the prim cipal streets and visited the friendly embassies, among them the British, where Sir George Buchanan spoke a few words to the huge crowd. Police Guard Turkish Embassy Effectively. The Turkish Embassy, not a hundred yards away, was ignored, after a speech urging the crowd not to commit imprudent acts had been made by }one of the leaders of the procession. The police were in strong foree around the Turkish Embassy. The Russian public is enraged at the conduct of the Germans in Turkish “ ed

Although Turkey has made no overt move so far, and does not acknow!l- edge diplomatically any breach, of peace toward Russia, a state of war really exists, and the Russian view is that France and England now can proceed to attack the Turkish fleet and coast as an enemy of their ally. Foreign Minister Sazonoff received the British and French Ambassa- dors today, and a report is current that Turkey may have a last oppor- tunity to disown the action of its ships. The diplomats are skeptical on this point, and consider that war between Turkey and all the Allies 1s inevitable and immediate. Russia Well Prepared for the Turk.

War Declared, Says a Private Message Sent Through Embassy WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.—War has been officially declared at Con- stantinople between Turkey and Russia, according to a private message transmitted today threugh the courtesy of the American embassy. The Am- bassador has not advised the Washington government of the declaration of war, but officials thought tonight his message had been delayed in transit, or that he was awaiting formal notification by the Ottoman government. ras addressed: to a New York business man The private message, which w : who had interests in Turkey, was dated 5 p. m. Friday, and reached here a few hours after a lengthy dispatch from Ambassador Morgenthou himself, describing events in Constantinople up to noon yesterday. The Turkish Minister of Fiance has informed the French Ambassador at Constantinople that the raid of Turkish warships on Russian. seaports took place without the knowledge of the Ottoman Government, and presumably under the influence of German officers and crews. This information was conveyed in a dispatch today from Ambassador Morgenthau to the American Government. ; Morgenthau added that the Russian Ambassador received instructions at 3 a. m. yesterday to demand his passports and made an effort to see the Grand Vizier, who pleaded illness and did not receive him. The Russian, French and British Ambassadors, according to the same dispatch, are preparing to leave ( ‘onstantinople together tonight. On receiving instructions to leave Comstantinople, the Russian Ambas- sador immediately placed the interests of the Russian Government in the hands of the Italian Ambassador. Ambassador Morgenthau’s dispatch made no mention of any declara- jon of war nor of internal conditions in Turkey. He probably will take over the French and British Ambassador Morgenthau’s interests. dispatch was filed at noon yesterday in cipher and was read with interest by White House officials as well as by | officers of the Government generally. The fact that no mention was made concerning missionaries led officials to beiieve that Morgenthau felt con- fident Americans throughout the Ottoman Empire would be safe. Sebastopol Bombarded: Turkish Fleet Sinks 2 Russian Ships »AMSTERDAM, via London, Oct. 31. 11 p. m.—A Turkish cruiser has bombarded Sebastopol, according to a dispatch from Constantinople to the Frenkfurter Zeitung. The following official telegram from Constantinople is published by the Zeitung? ‘A small part of the Turkish fleet in the Black Sea on Thursday sank the Russian mine-layer Prut, a vessel of 5000 tons, which had aboard 700 mines, damaged a Russian torpedo boat and seized a coal steamer. ‘“A torpedo fired from the torpedo boat Hairet-I-Millet sank the Rus- sian destroyer Kubanets. The Mauvenet-I-Millet torpedoed a Russian coast guard ship, which was severely damaged. Three Russian officers were saved by us and imprisoned. The Turkish fleet suffered no loss and the battle was successfully continued.’’ ‘*A dispatch from Berlin announces that telegrams from Turkey say the Turkish fleet, in a battle with the Russian Black Sea fleet, sank not two, but four torpedo boats and one gunboat, _ LONDON, Oct, 31, 11:40 p. m.—-The Petrograd correspondent of Reu- ter’s Telegram Co. sends the following dispatch: ‘The Russian gunboat Kubanets put up a fight against two Turkish torpedo boats which entered Odessa harbor, and attacked merchant ships. The Kubanets finally drove the Turkish boats off. ‘*The torpedo bouts entered the harbor and fired all their guns. Shells ttruck the Kubanets, tearing away her wooden superstructure, while steam- ers in the harbor and wareohuses on shore were damaged. The Turks strove to torpedo the Kubanets, but failed. ‘*The passengers and crew of the steamer Yalta, which was sunk, were saved, and most of the crew of the Kasbeck, which also sunk, got ses d on tafts. Turkish Envoy in Berlin Cheered ° “” BERLIN, Oct. 31. by way of The Hague and London, 2:40 p. m.—An- nouncement of Turkey's participation in the war caused enthusiasm in Ber- lin. A large crowd gathered in Potsdamer-Platz, and later marched to the Turkish embassy, cheering for the Sultan and the Turkish Minister of War, Envey Pasha. Turkish Ambassador Mahmoud: Mukhtar Pasha made a brief speech from_the balcony of the embassy, expressing his gratitude for the manifestation, which, he said, was certain proof of the affectionate relations of Germany and Turkey. Turkish Cable Interrupted NEW YORK, Oct. sommunication with Turkey in Europe, was interrupted. 31.—The Commercial Cable Co. announced today that Turkey in Asia and Turkish Islands Submarine Lorking in the Channel Sinks British Cruiser Hermes LONDON, Oct. 31, 11:10 p. m.—-The enterprise of German submarines, which have been lurking along the French coast on the Straits of Dover, teeking to get a shot at British ships engaged in bombarding the German positions in Belgium, was rewarded today, when one of them attacked and sank the light cruiser Hermes as she was returning from Dunkirk. The greater part of the crew was rescued. The Hermes was a comparatively oid vessel, and from a naval view- int was of no great value, but the fact that she was attacked so near home este that the German eyaarines must have a base somewhere on that part of the Belgian coast which is occupied by German troops, from which they can menace ships of the Allies passing between England and France. Only a few days ago one of them sank the French steamer Admiral Gan- teaume, which was carrying refugees from Calais. How many submarines the Germans have in these waters is not known, but several of them have been seen recently.

DISPATCH to Reuter’s Tel- Scale of Miles ‘ 20 30 A egram Co. from Amsterdam says that aceording to the Berlin newspapers, the usual course of instruction in the schools of Ger- many cannot be continued as #,000 positions, they gre comparatively safe, but the opportunity of the sub- marines come when one is caught alone, as was the Hermes. The Hermes is the seventh British cruiser to meet such a fate at the hands of German submarines or to be destroyed by mines. Others in the list are the light cruiser Amphion, sunk by a mine Aug. 6; the scout cruiser Pathfinder, sunk by a submarine Sept. 5; the armored cruisers Cressy, Hogue and Aboukir, sunk by a German submarine Sept. 22, and the cruiser Hawke, sunk by a submarine Oct. 15. The Hermes was a sister ship of the Highflyer, which sank the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse Aug. 27. She was a vessel of 5600 tons displacement, 350 feet long, 54 feet beam and had a depth of 20.5 feet. Her main arma- ment consisted of 11 6-inch guns, and she carried a complement of 456 offi- cers and men. She entered the service in 1900. —_— French Maintaining Positions All Along Line, Advancing on Center 3, Oct. 31 (11 p. m.).—The official communication issued tonight PARIS by the French war office was: ‘¢ According to the latest advices, there is no incident of any importance to report. In the center we have made progress, as in the region to the north of Souain. ‘(Everywhere else we are maintaining our positions.’’ This afternoon’s official announcement was as follows: ‘‘The day of yesterday was marked by an attempt at a general of fensive movement on the part of the Germans along the entire front from Nieuport to Arras and by violent attacks delivered at other points of the line of battle. From Nieuport to the canal of La Bassee there were alternate movements of advancement and retirement, ‘*To the south of Nieuport the Germans who had taken possession of Rampikapelle were driven out of this town by a counter attack. ‘*To the south of Ypres we lost some points of support, Hollebecke and Zandworde, but we progressed to the east of Ypres in the direction of Pasch. endaele. ‘*Between La Bassee and Arras all the attacks made by the Germans were repulsed with heavy losses for them. ‘In the region of Chaulnes we advanced beyond Lihions and we took possession of Le Quesnoy in the Santerre district. ‘*In the region of the Aisne also we have made progress on the heights of the right bank down stream from Soissons, but we were compelled to with. draw in the vicinity of Vailly. ‘*We have advanced in the region of Souain and there has been a violent engagement in the Argonne ‘‘In the Woevre district we have again won ground in the forest of Le Petre.’’ | p { German Retreat from Dixmude Is Indicated; Water Checks Advance LONDON, Nov. 1, 1:27 m.—The Flushing correspondent of Reuter’s Telegram Co. says: ‘(Heavy firing can be heard in Sluis from the direction of Thourout. iverything indicates that the Germans are retreating from Dixmude.’’ The German attempts to reach the French channel ports were resumed with energy yesterday. The Germans undertook general offensive tactics from the coast at Nieuport to Arras, and while they made progress at some points, they were repulsed at others, and in some cases were compelled to give ground. Near the coast their advance was checked by an extension of the flooded area. The battle is raging with the fury that marked the opening of the last phase of this campaign, and even on the English coast the boom of the big naval guns which are bombarding the invader’s flank could today be dis- tinctly heard. The Allies have brought up land and sea forces in an endeavor to check this seccnd effort of the Germans to establish themselves on the French coast, from which they hope to menace England. The German official report issued early today announced that the Ger man troops had occupied Ramscapelle, which is on the railway and canal between Nieuport and Dixmuda, but the French official communication of this afternoon says they were driven out by a counter attack. Doubtless the extension of the flooded area which now reaches beyond this town, made the German position untenable. Gains Made by Both Sides Small. One the whole, therefore, it would appear that the situation on this most important battle front remains much as it was when the Germans, through exhaustion a few days ago, ceased their heavy artillery fire for rest. The French report tells of various advances and losses, but these usually, so far as distance is coneerned, can be marked in feet or yards, and the advance made a few days ago by the British in Belgium of 1200 yards was considered remarkable. Throughout the great battle front there has been a repetition of attacks and counter attacks, with at times, a pronounced thinning of the lines, wheth- er they have gained a slight advance or have been thrown back. The Germans made a particularly violent attack east of Soissons on the Aisne, and, ac- cording to the German report, drove the French across the river. Reports that Lille has been reoceupied by the French and that Ostend has been evacuated by the Germans lack confirmation, and are considered prema- ture, but around the former city fighting of a most desperate character has been going on, and the villages surrounding Lille have been taken and re- taken time after time.

HE crisis Aa which Europe is going will not only change the political map of the Old Contnent but will exercise considerable in- fluence over the internal politics of every European nation. War always operates within and without the state but, while it is extremely difficult to predict today to what extent each nation involved in the conflict will gain or lose, yet one can easily forecast which cesses Co will derive the greatest benefit from the war. . It will be the classes which are paying the greatest tribute in blood and the political parties that represent them, namely, the popular classes and the democratic parties, that will greatly benefit from the war. The prediction is safe, for the history of Europe, from the French Revolution on, bears witness to it. The French Revolution succeeded in breaking the chains of the people Throughout the nineteenth century war, although detested by the liberal and democratic parties, proved to be their most powerful and faithful ally.

Freedom as Compensation. The new King refused. The Consti- tution and the freedom represented the compensation the new King had wisely decided to give tu his people in order to lighten the terrible sufferings which that year’s war and the one of the previous year had caused them. The abolition of serfdom in Russia in 1861 was the consequence of the Crimean war. It was after the war of 1860 that the autocratic regime in Austria was substituted by a constitutional Govern- ment less rigid and less authoritarian. Universal suffrage in political election was introduced in Germany after the wars of 1866 and 1870 and was intended to compensate the people for the im- inense sacrifice of blood offered up in those two wars. | In France the democratic Republic is the outcome of the war of 1870 as the Duma in Russia followed the Russian- Japanese war. Universal suffrage in Italy would not have been adopted with- out the Tripoli war. While thousands of peasants were fighting in Tripolitan- ia, Parliament, though composed of a conservative majority opposed to univer- sal suffrage, did not dare refuse the right to vote to those on whom it called to shed their blood. Masses to Gain by War. In the light of these facta it can be easily predicted that this kind of his- torical law will continue to operate throughout Europe even after the pres- ent war. This war will impose so many sacri- fices of blood and money, so many in- describable privations and sufferings, on the lower olasses of both the winning and losing nations, that both winners and losers will be compelled, after peace has been concluded, to give to the lower cli sses sOme compeénsation, the losers in a larger measure than the winners. a ~ Son of Conservative Leader in House of Lords Dies on Field LONDON, Oct. 31 ORD NAIRNE, # years old, | second son of the Marquis of Lansdowne, leader in the House of Lords, has been killed in action.

They drove them before them with knouts (the Cossack rides only with the whip; he uses no spurs), ind at the edge of the village by the side of a ditch they broke the legs and arms of their prisoners with the butte» of the carbine, and then shot them. The bodies were thrown into the ditch and heavy stones were rolled over them. The governmental physician’ re- ports that autopsies showed that two of the victims had been buried alive and that all had their eyes thrust out by lances and their tongues cut off. it was so. The story was vouched for by seven witnesses. No pretenses were made by the Cossacks that they had justifica- tion. The only remark in this connec- tion was credited to an officer, who is quoted as saying that since the great Kaiser wanted war, he should have it in real form. Cossacks Uncontrolled. It seems to be pretty well estab- lished that the control of the regulars over the Cossacks in the Russian army is very slight. On two occasions villages were warned by officers of the regulars that the inhabitants wold better conceal themselves as the Cossocks were coming and it would be impossible to protect the veople. Sometimes the line officers themselves seemed to be in fear of the half-wild cavalrymen. With the earlier troops of Cossacks who ravaged East Prussia there were te be found organized camp follows, who took off the hands of the raiders the plunder they gathered. I was told in Russia that scores upon scores of freight cars had passed the boundaries, loaded down with booty obtained in the first sweep made through Germany. At Abschwangen, 10 miles from nigsberg, 58 were killed—all civilians, as indeed was the in all the in- stances I am reporting. The reason given Was that the Cossakcs had been fired upon. They had not, except by uhlan patrols that had advanced from the fortress of Koenigsberg to mix it a little with the foe. Twenty-one men and women left in the village swore to the correspondents in my party that there was not a weap- on in the village, and that the Cossacks knew this, but were determined to make an example of the inhabitants, so that the uhlans would not repeat. their jaunts. laborer Judel, 79 years old, had his 6-year-old granddaughter on his arm when he got the call.

The child was killed. The old man was sorely wounded, but recovered. Johanna Eggert, wife. of the harness- maker, was shot down at her door, where she stood with her husband. He was wounded, but still lives. In addition to the 58 killed, 10 civilians were hurried off into é¢aptivity. From each village came the same report that from five to 20 men and boys had been taken away by the cavalrymen, some of whom have not been heard ef since, while others have been found dead. Such a case occurred at Alt Kesruth, a small place near Ortelsburg, famous as the scene of the heaviest defeat of the Russians. A householder named Wrege, 65 years old, was carried away with his two sons, one 23, the other 17. They were found the next day on the meadows, two miles away from the hamlet. The father and elder son were already dead,- struck through and through by Cossacks’ lances that had pierced the eyes, the face, the neck and the bodies. Tortured Like €®asts. The voung tad, with 30 lance thrusts through him, lived just long encugh to say that they had been used as guides by regular troops and had been released after being led to the road by order of a cavalry officer. As they passed through a patch of woods, the Cossacks who had taken them prisoners originally cap- tured them again, and standing them together. tilted at them with their janees. A Russian surgeon who rode bv was compelled to desist from binding their wounds by the Cossacks. Five witnesses heard the story young Wrege, and they knew, too, the story of Frau Glass’ husband, whose fate was almost the same as that of the Wreges, except that in this case the body showed bayonet thrusts. not lance marks. Edward Heinrich, 58 years old, whe was spared because they chose to shoot his son instead, told how the 14-year-old boy had met his death. Young Heinrich and seven other young fellows, only 14 years old. were driven ina group under a whip to a grassy bank beside a little river. Heinrich, with his wife and two daughters, followed, and begered for the lad's life, only to get the butt of a pistol on his head and see his wife and daughters abused, Then they were held and compelled to look on while the eight were shot. The eight were told thev could turn their backs or take the fire facine. They chose to face it. “My poor boy,” said the father, “tried to keep his eyes from his mother’s, but in spite of him, they turned to her. He stood with arms stretched out, weeping and hoping that at the last some miracle would occur to save him. I saw him hold his hand to his mouth to keep back the sobs that shook his body. Just as the command to fire was given, he threw his other hand over his eves. [ like to think he did It to keep us from seeing the pain his eyes were showing. The order was given that the bodies must He by the water all night. The next morning I went to the Cossack officer to ask permission to get my son’s body. He was so drunk he could not speak.” In addition to these eight, 2 more were killed in the village itself and 2 along the roads leading to the village, the last number being fugitives who had hoped to be able to go on into Koe- nigsberg. Frau Erna Reimann, 3 years old, a . of some bride of three weeks, lost her husband, father and father-in-law within ten min- utes, at the hands of the Cossacks. Her husband, 32 years old, had defec- tive eyes so he could not join the army. He was at work in the fields near Ab- schwengen when the Cossacks began their revel. He heard the shots and ran to his house to protect his wife. The Cossacks rode to the door and or- dered him to come forth. As he ap- peared at the door he was shot down. Fearing mutilation, the widow and her father-in-law, as the troops rode off carried the body into the garden and dug a grave. Two Cossacks came by while they were doing this, and emptied their carbines into the body of the 65- year-old man. He fell across the body of his son, dead. The woman covered the bodies as best could, and then ran to her home, where her father, Leopold Holtzstein, aged 72, lived. Soon he was called to the sly Si1e@ uoor, but she would not let him go alone. She hoped that she might be able to save him my holding him in her arms. The death shot came, passing through the hand she had thrown about her fa- ther’s neck. He died instantly. Dazed by Her Disasters. The woman told her story ina curious, impersonal, objective manner. Her heart seemed to be dead within her. Her eyes looked straight ahead or dropped to her hands, which she pulled in a slow way. Her voice never lost the monotone that began and ended her tale. Now and then her lips parted in a queer, twisted smile, as if she were laughing at the idea that her story, though repeated in the four quarters of world, would help her any or could bring back one of the three that she had seen murdered. As I left her, she stood staring at her wedding ring. In almost every village which the Cos- sacks visited, they applied the torch. Each Cossack carries in his equipment little strips of thin celluloid-like ma- terial that blazes like oil, Cossack pris- oners in German hands each nave these strips, and they were found rcattered about the burned villages by the corre- spondents. Stories Not Rehearsed. The stage was not set for the investi- gation. The towns visited were chosen from those in the thick of the East Prussian invasion, and we were per- mitted to talk to any witnesses we chose. Frequently detours would be made and villages visited that were not included in the plan, and from these came even more gruesome accounts than from those on the regular list. The German Government made no conditions in connection with the tour, except that a truthful report of the findings be made. The party included representatives from the press of neu- tral countries. Besides myself. there were men from the Assoctated Press, the United Press and the New York Staats-Zeitung, three Italian journalists, two from Holland and one from Nor- way. The country traversed was marked by idle fields and dead factories, and scarcely a tree was left standing. They had been cut down by both armies. Twice the party crossed into Russia, and there we had an opportunity of studying contrasts. Frequently the Russian villages would be burned and damaged by gun-fire, but that was true only when they had been In the fire zone.

LONDON, Oct. 31.—Albert, King of the Belwians, has asked the American people, through the American com- mission, for relief in Belgium to help feed his starving people-during the oming ,gyinter. The King’s message, written under fire in the battle before Dunkirk, follows:' “I am informed that American offi- cials and citizens in Belgium and Bn- sland are working to save my people from the horrors of the famine whicn now threatens them. I[t is a great comfort to me in this hour of sorrow and misfortune to feel that a great- hearted, disinterested people di- recting its efforts to relieving the distress of the unoffending civilian population of my country. ‘Despite all that can be done the suffering in the coming winter will be but the burden we must bea, lightened if my people can be the pangs of hunger with its consequences of disease and is wiTriple, be spared frightful violence. “I confidently hope that the appeal of the American Commission will meet with a generous response. The whole- hearted friendship of America shown my people at this time always will be a precious memory. “ALBERT” Commission’s Appeal. The American Commission for Relief in Belgium is an official body recog- nized by the various Governments for the transmission of foodstuffs into Bel- gium. It is the only channel through which food can be introduced into Bel. gium, and by its association with a com- mittee in Belgium has the only efficient agency for the distribution of food with- in the country. H. C. Hoover, chair- man of the commission, which has head- quarters in London, makes the follow- ing appeal to all American newspapers “We have received reports from members of this commission who were sent into Belgium. They have the as- sistance of the National Committee of Relief and its branches throughout Bel- gium, together with the help of the American Ministers and Consuls and lo- eal officials. Their reports show that there are still some 7,000,000 people in Belgium. In many centers the people are receiving an allowance of a little more than three ounces of flour per capita daily. Food for Entire Population. “i nis is not a question of charity or relief to the chronically poor—it is 2 question of feeding an entire popula- tion. The situation affects the- wealthy and well-to-do as well as the poor. It touches every home tn Belgium. Our experts calculate that, in order to avoid actual starvation, Belgium must have every month a minimum of 60,000 tons of wheat, 15,000 tons of corn, 5000 tons of peas or beans and a limited amount of bacon or lard. “This will allow rations of 10 ounces per capita daily, which is about half the usual soldier’s rations. All this will cost $4,000,000 or $5,000,000 monthly. There is no mor:ey in Belgium. The whole credit machinery has ceased. Eighty per cent of the people are unemployed. Problem Is Immediate. will “A plan may be devised whereby such Belgians as possess” property may give -—— —_—— villages, did I find a case of wanton de- struction. In several of the villages the inhahi- tants were still going about their daily pursuits as if they were not in the hands of foreign foes. And the Jews among the border towns on the Russian side did not hesitate to make known their hope that the Germ: and never let the Russians return. ~ It seems that in their flicht through their own country the Cossacks did not hesi- tate to plunder their own countrymen. Truly their spears seemed to know no brothers. A Mazveppa-Like Ride. At Grieslenein. near Allenstein, a vil- lage that its tndicated today only through the half-burned church and the pastor’s house, the Cossacks did a thorough fob. Not another bnilding is left standing. The pastor's sister, an elderly woman named Rockel, told .-how he and a friend, 65 years old, had been tortured and killed. Rockel had fled with the villagers when the Cossacks approached. He was about to be married, and did net want to lose the half-dozen cows that he hoped to make his living from. So, with Zonewitz, he went back to the hamlet. The Cossacks seized the two, saying they were spies. Each was bound by the hands with long thones to the sad- dies of the troopers and then they set off ata gallop. They rode for two miles with the captives bumping along on the stony road behind. Then the two were struck through with lances. When the bodies were found, the eyes were gone and the noses had been cut off. At Hohenstetn, one of the larger towns of the eastern section of the province. there were only regular Rus- sian troops, and these behaved well, according to the report given by Burgro- master David. In fact, when only reg- ular troops were the invaders, the con- duct was generally good. This state- ment is made on the authority. of Count von Schiieffen. general-commander of the Twentieth German Army Corps, tn an interview I had with him. Aged Killed in Bed. At Soldau, an important town near the border, the Russians behaved well dur- ing the occupancy, but when they re- treated the Cossacks went into the Kranken Haus (infirmary) and killed in thelr beds five old men and two women. A l4-year-old girl, sick in bed. |head. In ‘the vicinity of this town there ans would stay | was killed by lance thrusts through her) was a total of 11 killed and of these six were women. At Bischopsburg, Aug. 24, an 80-year- old man, quite deaf, was killed as he was weeding pgtatoes. He was shot from behind by a crowd of laughing, singing Cossagks. One said later he had been told fhe old man had two sons in the killed by As they left the Cossacks made five of the burghers go with them as hostages ihat they shouid not be fired upon. One was a small merchant named Wielk. Two days later he crawled back to die in the town hospital. He told how the five had been put in the center of a ring of Cossacks, who swung their carbines at the legs and arms of the prisoners, which snapped like sticks under the blows. Then they were lanced as they lay on the ground. Wielk had man- aged to keep life in him and nerve enough to crawl three miles back to his home. The others were found at the place he described and brought back for burial. At Gardauen, Sept. 8 2 civilians. in- cluding one woman, were shot down. This act is charged against the regular Russian soldiers, for each of the wit- nesses is certain that there were no Cossacks there. At this place a mother and married daughter were overpowered and attacked in the presence of their husbands, and were later shot. The troops ransacked the Landrath’s house and destroyed everything they could move. Then they cut the throat of a pig and dressed him in the Landrath’'s clothes and laid him in a bed they made up in the front porch. It is a curious play of the Cossack psychology that frequently, when they have been guilty of the uttermost bar- barism, they bury their victims and im- plously erect crosses over the graves. Shot for Using Phone. The way from Darkehme to the Rus- sian front is thick with mounds. From the town 2) men were taken along as prisoners by the Cossacks. Five of the captives were afterward found dead. Among the prisoners were boys 13 years old. Darkehme is notable as being the first point in the journey where a reg- ular court martial appears to have been held. A merchant named Kaufmann was arrested accused of having used the telephone, which citizens had been for- bidden to do. He admitted itt. and proved that he had telephoned to a friend several streets away, asking him |to come over fer a cup of coffee. Kaut- | “bligations to pay when the war ends, but even if we could realize on these obligations we must stil hav& at least $2,500,000 monthly in food or mohey with which to buy it. That these figures are no exaggeration is proven by the fact that Belgium imports itn normal times an average of 230,000 tons of cere- als monthly. “During the past week we have re- ceived and expended in emergency food $600,000, and yet this is only four days’ supply. The problem is 1mmediate. The Belgians are helping themselves, but they can do little. The British and French are under such strain that they also can ado little. Besides, these na- tions, together with the Dutch, have a million refugees on their hands. Amert- cans must feed Belgium this winter. There never was such a call on Ameri- cvn chari.y, and there never was a farine ernergency so great. Every Doltar for Food, “This committee and its distributing agency, the Belgium Committee, is com- posed entirely of volunteers and every dollar represents actual food without any organization expenses. It is our earnest hope that all funds raised for Belgian relief in the United States will be translated into actual food and shipped through the commission. “Will you, therefore, in the interests of humanity open a subscription among your readers ear-marked ‘for the sole purpose of purchasing and transporting food.’ Every dollar so raised will be used to purchase food in the United States. Information as to what cen- ters and what relief agencies in the United States will undertake the pur- chase and dispatch will be cabled later. “H. C. HOOVER, Chairman.” Horse Which Won Piéai Killed on French Battlefield PARIS, Oct. 31.—James Hennessy's chestnut horse, Lord Loria, which had captured many prize turf events and brought its owner a fortune in purses, was killed while serving at the front as an officer’s mount. The horse had been ridden by the jockey, Alex Carter, who was recently killed in action while serving as a Captain of French dra- goons. The army, in requisitioning the horse, paid his owner $800. The most recent turf achievement of the horse was the winning of the grand steeplechase De Paris, valued at $30,000, at the Auteufl course, on June 21 last. = Ee Cobb Says Neither Side Can Show Atrocities in Belgium NEW YORK, Oct. 81.—Irvin 8.

OHIO CAMPAIGN ENTERS ON ‘WET AND ‘DRY’ ISSUE CLEVELAND, O., Uct. 31.—Ohio is bringing to a close the most desperate- ly contested campaign this old historic Mother-of-Presidents State has ever known. On Tuesday the voters are to elect a United States Senator, a Gover- nor and other State and county officers. Moreover, they are to determine whether woman suffrage is to be adopted. But, it is on none of these issues that public interest centers, for there is also a State-wide prohibition contest that is the paramount issue and, the one ab- sorbing topic. It is more than a local contest, too, for Ohio is a pivotal State and results here will have an important bearing on the anti-saloon league plans for extending the contest over the Nation. Breweries and distilleries from every section of the United States are pouring money into the campaign fund of the Ohio ‘‘wets’’; but this is being per- haps evenly matched by nation-wide contributions to the prohibition cause, from churches, various other organiza- tions and individuals. Scores of detectives, hired by the “dry” leaders, are seeking tangible evi- dence of rumored registration frauds. Spellbinders of the Malcolm Patter- son type—Patterson, the former Gover- nor of Tennessee—are raising rafters with anti-alcoholic oratory. On the oth- er side, speakers who shun pretty word painting are pleading the cause of the “‘wets’’ from a standpoint of business and personal liberty. i Practically every church building in ‘Ohio is decorated with flaming banners proclaiming in two-foot letters of fiery red: This Church Stands Opposed to the : Liquor Traffic. And the fronts of many private resi- dences are festooned with streamers upon which is inscribed: But arrayed against these prohibition pleas is a vast vclume of wet literature. Every saloon in Cleveland, Cincinnati and other cities has in its front window a sign like this: If Prohibition carries this storeroom : and, thousands like it will be FOR RENT! What effect do you think that will have on other property values? On these placards, the ‘For Rent’”’ appears in letters at least a foot high, while the explanatory matter above and below is in type so smal! that it can be read only at close range. The effect is striking. Three political parties are in the Ohio field--Democratic, Republican and Pro- gressive. Of these only one party—the Progressive—are openly committed on the liquor question. The Democrats and Republicans are silent, but the Pro- gressives, with ex-Secretary James A.

The Republic- ang say it will not exceed 800, while Progressive leaders say they are having better meetifigs and more promises of support than in 1912, when Roosevelt received about 23,000 votes in St. Louls Error in Meeker Circular. The Progressive vote in the entire State in 1912 was a little more than 100,000. The Republicans have been try- ing hard to get the Progressives to come back. Edward Foristel of the Meeker Cam- paign Committee yesterday . explained that the statement in a circular issued in behalf of the Republican congres- sional nominee was in error with re- spect to the loss of business sustained by the International Shoe Co. Owing to a typographical error in the first copies of the pamphlets, he said, it was stated that the loss was $13,000,000. It was in- tended to be put at $1,300,000, he said. The error Was corrected and appeare:l only.in a few thousand copies, Foristel said.

Without interpretation we have the pain- ful mechanism in sound which is so characteristic of the play- ing of the many so-called player-pianos and of those performers whose musical knowledge does not extend beyond the fingering of the keys correctly.

Oregon to Vote al * Gov. Major to Cast - His Ballot by Mail JEFFERSON CITY, Oct. 31. OV. MAJOR today predicted | that Missouri would give the Democratic State ticket a majority next Tuesday of from 5v,- 000 to 75,000, and said that Senator Stone would run ahead: of the ticket. “T have not campaigned in St. Louis,’ said. the Governor, but I have made speeches in a number of the congressional districts, and I believe that all of them will return to Washington their present Demo- cratic representatives.” The Governor will remain in Jef- ferson City Tuesday and will :nail his~certified ballot to Pike County under the new absentee voters law. One reason why he will do so, he said, is that he wants to encourage a more general use of the privilege among traveling men who are com- pelled to be away from home. on 29 Amendments—Sufferage Up in feven States and Prohibition in Six. Overshadowing the. partisan importance of the political contests to be decided in all but one of the forty-eight states on Tuesday are some of the Constitutional innovations to be considered by the voters. In twenty-two states the citizens are asked to vote upon the adoption by their respective states of many features of government, reflecting the advanced thought of political leaders and generally described by their critics as ‘‘socialistic.’’ The propositions range from woman tive and referendum and woman suff- suffrage in seven States, prohibition in| rage. six, over a wide field of reform, includ- Kansas has but two amendments to ing the abolition of the death penalty,| vote upon; an unusually small number the initiative and referendum, child la-| #r Kansas, One provides that any pub- bor, public half-holidays, lic official elective or appointive may ownership, pensions for the blind, be recalled; the other imposes income, franchise and privilege taxes. ployes, the ‘blue-sky law" regul In Massachusetts there are two propo- corporations, io the prohibition of sitions before the voters.

Missouri offers 15 propositions, slightly curtailing the scope of the ini- tiative and referendum, another au- thorizing the issue of $50,000,000 bonds for road building, one authorizing the State to pension the blind, a full-crew law and a county local option law. Montana citizens will decide whether the State will legalize women suffrage, prize fighting and the wopkman’s com- pensation. Of the six amendments submitted to Nebraska voters, one authorizes verdicts of three-fifths of a jury in all civil and misdemeanor cases, another the tax- ation of incomes, a third raising the salary of the Governor to $5000, and a fourth provides for a workman’s com- pensation law. North Dakota voters will pass upon six amendments besides woman suf- frage. Two extend the present initia- tive.and referendum law. Another gives the people the right to select locations of public buildings and a third author- izes the establishment of public termin- al grain elevators.

All are initiated measures that change the Constitution, if adopted, and all were inaugurated and placed before the people by Charles J. West, pres- ent Attorney General of Oklahoma and one of the recent candidates for the Democratic nomination for Gov- ernor. In proposing to reduce the State Legislature and form a commission of 15, the West measure provides for a one-House Lezgislature of 80 mem- bers who are prohibited from remain- ing in session over 60 days biennial- ly. This House of 80 shalleselect 15 of its members biennially who shall be a commission. In Ohio the two most important propo- sitions are to make prohibition State- wide and to giye women full suffrage. The Oregon voters will face a big job on election day. Six men are running for Governor and there are 12 tickets, full or partial, to choose from. Then he is asked to pass yes or no upon 29 propositions. Here is one: ‘To allow dentists graduating from colleges re- quiring two vears’ course of six months each vear to practice amendment is to omit requirement that “all taxation shall be equal and uni- form,”’ in Oregon.’ Cne vides for “equal assessment and taxa-! tion of all property.”” What is the poor NE A ALI!

In the fourth period Illinois opened up a bewildering array of forward passes and sensation- al line plunges that ripped gaps in the Gopher defense, three times rushing the ball over ‘the line.

Clark then plunged through for Illinols’ first touchdown and a deep groan rumbled through the crowded stands as Minne- gota saw her championship chances go a-glimmering. Then before the Gophers recovered from the shock, Illinois re- ceived a kick-off, rushed the ball to Minnesota's 35- yard line in two downs, and Pogue skirted the right flank for the second touchdown.

Whether it was the West Ender’s poor play or Yeatman’s strength that held the score down to such moderate proportions is hard to determine. However, the gold and brown squad put up a mediocre exhi- bition at best. The back-field performed fairly well on.the offense, but the whole team showed poorly on the defense. The line failed to withstand the attack of the Yeatman backs during a greater part of the game and never consist- ently opened holes. On one occasion the North Enders, made five straight first downs while several times they canst their distance thrice, succes- sively Nehr and Morrison Star. Nehr and Morrison did most to stave off defeat. These two players were the only consistent gainers for the Kelly clan and it was through their alertnéss that the Soldan followers have anything to gloat over. Soldan got off to a lead in the first period when Capt. Swingley caught a punt in midfield and “ad- vanced the ball to the Yeatman two- He then went over for Dawson kicked gal.

Both Quinn and Mullin, the new men, are stars and there fs rea- son to suspect that they will bolster up the South Side aggregation. Manager Kliosterman of the S8St. Leos, immediately after last Sunday's struggle, decided that his team was not of the right makeup to struggle through a hard season of strenuous playing and land on top.

Indeed, the fact about these three wonderfu! ball players must have leaked out long before the same was gotten from me because of its importance. “Gossip, of such sunreme impor- tance in the baseball world, would have eventually become public prop- erty. Undoubtedly I have spoken to friends interested in baseball of the waivers and sought discussion anid information as to what would prob- ably happen continued Jennings. This gave the direct insinuation that a confidence had been violated by one of his friends. “So far as the pitchers afe con- cerned, I am convinces that Plank and Bender are. st¥fll considered among the champions in the box, and will rank above the average for sev- eral vears.

The fighting Wisconsin team, nerved to a combat decisive in its character, played a game worthy of its importance, and, outfighting the Chicagoans, held them to a pointless draw, 0——-0. The game was as hard fought as any in the history of the conference. For Wisconsin, Bellows was the chief winner of glory and his accu- rate, long punts so far outdistanced those of Desjardien and Russell that the ball was for most of the fame on Chicago ground. The loss of Gray. whose twisted leg gave way early in the game, weakened the maroon at- tack and his great runs were sadly missed, though Russell's fancy dash- es and Flood’s line drives practically made up for them. Open Game a Myth. To the surprise of the spectators, the much-heralded “new football” was hardly in evidence. Straight foot- ball predominated and though at least a dozen forward passes were tried by both teams the opposing backs wrecked nearly all of them, three being intercepted by each side. The one double pass attempted by Chicago gained only a yard or two. Roth maroons and cardina!s tried for field goals tn vain—Rellows’ drop- kicks fell vards short of the line, and Schafer’sa place kick went between the uprights, but nearer the ground than the crossharf. A warm day favored the 12,900 spec- tatora and made the gotnge hard for the players, but substitutes were few. Lineup: Chicago. Huntington Shull Stegeman . Dowarcien (Cc).

Since 190 Europe has been selling eight-cylinder cars at prices ranging from $5000 up to $12,000. These cars are remarkably economical, giving from 18 to 20 miles per gallon of gasoline. Recently ‘an * American car of this type was announced ata price close to $2000. The Kings com- pany brings out the first popular- priced American adaptation of the European eight. The wonderful “eight-cylinder” flexibility, freedom from _ vibracion, longevity, power, economy and lux- ury that has hiterto been beyond the r@ach of the average motor car purchaser, is now offered at a price only slightly over that of the King company’s four. The new eight has a pure European stream-line body wheel base, which length has prvuved itself the most convenient size for general use. The Ward Leonard _cles- is included in the price and an en- gine-power tire pump is part of the regular equipment. Through the Heinrich Automobile Co. of St. Louis, the King Motor Car Co. is prepared to guarantee deliv- eries on this new model after Dec. 30. The four-cylinder model will, of course, be continued, as its populari- ty has steadily increased since its successful announcement last spring. ——_ WHITE HAS NEW LINE AND NEW MANAGER The St. Louis branch house of the White Motor Co. has a new manager in Charles R. Porter, who succeeds H. M. Rosenberg. Rosenberg has gone to Chi- cago. Porter has had wide automobile ex- perience and has specialized on trucks for the past two years. His latest con- nection was in handling the Garford line, prior to which he was with the A, O. Smith Co. of Milwaukee. Concurrently with the announcement of its new manager, the White Co. has shipped to St. Louis models of its new lines of White pleasure cars, which are pronounced the handsomest ever turned out by that company. The new White line consists of two four-cylinder models of 30 and 45 horse- power, respectively, and one six of 6. horsepower. The latter is to be sold on a “made-to-order” basis only. The line includes a great variety of bodies. Be- sides the usual touring and roadster styles, there are semi-touring, sedan, town car, landaulet-limousine and limou- sine types. A number of minor changes, intended to improve the appearance of the White line, have been made. >. SAFETY LIES IN BRAKES “When it is fully realized that the entire safety of the occupants of an automobile may depend upon the brakes in critical situations, too much im- portance cannot be attached to the con- struction of the braking system,” de- clares L. E. Newell of the Newell Motor Car Co. “Without adequate surface at the rear drums, full braking cannot be realized. The Haynes designers have been lib- eral in providing an unusyally large area on the Haynes Light Six car, which has a total braking surface of 308 square inches. In addition, both the emergency and service braking surfaces are inside the drums on the rear wheels, where the brgke lining is thoroughly protected from all mud and dust. This feature of protection eliminates the wear on the lining that would arise from the grinding action arising when exposed on the outside of the drum, and a far greater reliability may be placed in securing the full effect of ee brakes,” Se ERY Om — eal a RE NON Cee he Aan nll agguatagges ag and is built on a chassis of 113-inchy tric starting and generating system.

When the Frisco Agricultural Asso- ciation announced that Cooper would drivg in their track meet on October 2. motorists gathered from miles around to have a look at this daring driver in action. The one-mile dirt track did not offer ideal conditions for speedy driving, but as his car flew around the turns, throw- ing sand into the facés of onlookers, the air was rent with shouts of admira- tion for his perfect control. Cooper, in his Stutz, won the %-mile event in 47 minutes 2-5 seconds without a stop, breaking the track record. Cooper was the only contestant to finish with a perfect score on tires, his Firestones, the only ones tn the race, causing him no trouble whatever. SEATS MADE GOOD BED With its many new features, 1915 Maxwell touring car has won its way into the hearts of thousands of American automobilists, not only because of its. beauty and mechan- ical perfection, but because of the many uses to which ft can be put. Several farmers, owners of Max- well touring cars, . have converted their cars into temporary stationary engines and have cut their ensilae, sawed wood, even pumped water for their stock, by this means. But the latest feature of the new Maxwell was discovered by some Seattle (Wash.) boys. who drove thelr car on a fishing trip. They found that the front seat could be entirely removed by taking out the four adjustable bolts and that by moving the back of the seat and ar- ranging the cushions, a comfortable sleeping place could be had. The original idea of the adjustable front seat was to provide for the conven- lence and comfort of drivers of all tte “posstbiiit yg will welcome pos es as sieeping quarters much as the or cient idea. the - blem. Salesmen W. D. nb, 1 TIRE MEN ATTEND BIG CONVENTION AT FACTORY Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Oct 29, 30 and 31, the city of Akron was the property of the Goodyear Tire and Rub- ber Co. Goodyear salesmen, branch and district managers captured the city, the occasion being the celebration of the conclusion of a highly successful year and a planning of the company’s sales campaign for 1915. The Goodyear men arrived in three special trains Thursday morning and were met by a reception committee and band and. escorted to their hotel, where, after they had been assigned, they formed for a big parade across the city to the Goodyedr: plant. The parade contained many novelties. The Californians, for instance. brought with them a live, bear, the State em- The Chicago District men were made up as minstrels. The men from the South were in costumes suitable to their climate. After the 500 visitors had been received at the factory the business of the con- vention began, with trips through the factory so that the visitors might be- come more famillar with the actual processes by which Goodyear products are made, Thursday evening there was a stag theater party at the Colonial Theater, the entire house having been bought out for the occasion. ‘There were conferences on Friday and Satur- day and on Friday evening the crowning feature of the occasion was a banquet to all of the territorial men and man- agers in the lunch room of the com- pany’s general office building. There were inspirational addresses by Presi- dent F. A. Seiberling, Vice-President C. W. Seiberling, Assistant Treasurer W. KE. Palmer, H. S. Quine, Manager of Shilts and C. C. Hop- pins of Lord & Thomas, and C. H. Car- lisle, manager of the Goodyear’s Cana- dian company. Assistant Secretary A. F. Osterloh was toastmaster. It was the largest sales convention ever heid by an Akron company. ~* Three special trains brought the men to Akron and all departed Saturday night and Sunday full of enthusiasm for the making of 1915 the biggest year in tire history. F. H. Casebeer, St. Louis man- ager, and several others of the St. Louis force were at the convention. STYLE IS NECESSARY IN MOTOR CAR DESIGN Stvle in motor cars Is now a requi- that must be included by every manufacturer. Mechanical correct- ness is taken as a matter of fact, but the efforts for increased beauty are never ended. “If automobiles were merely a means of transporta- tion and nothing more,” stated Geu. Cc. Brinkman, local National distrib- utor, “then all cars would be alik, because the buying public. would be interested in mechanical performance only. However, in addition to beings the most advanced method of trans portation, motor cars are a style Cai- riage, and as such, are a source of satisfaction to their owners. It’s well-known of cars take pride in the beauty vf their car to a much greater extent than they do in clothes, or any com- modity in which style plays a part. Owners are, to a degree, reflected by their car, and that is why the un- tiring efforts of automobile builders to produce symmetry, graceful lines and refined appearance, “One point always in view in build- ing National cars is» that they will possess certain distinctive features and yet not embody anything that could be considered ‘freakish.’ “One characteristic of the National is the distinctive outline of the rad- iator and the outline of the National shield has heralded the approach of all National cars for the past seven years. The long, low, racy appear- ance of Natf®nal cars always attracts attention and the low center of grav- ity permits National speed with safety.” site FAST HORSES VS. FORDS A gentleman of the rich agriculg@ral section of West Virginia, J. A. Cofffield, of Harrisville, makes this interésting and attractive proposition to the Ford Motor Co.: “I have eight head of horses from 3 to 8 years old; will sell or trade. One pair of saddle and driving horses, 6 years old, bred by a Kentucky horse; will sell or trade for a Ford car.”’ Factory records, too, show an inter- esting state of affairs in Mr. Coffield’s neighborhood. It is not only difficul* there to buy a new Ford, but also a secondhand Ford. There is a country- wide scarcity of secondhand Fords. The depreciation in a Ford is extraordinarily light. This is due to “Ford service’’— 11915 MAXWELL IS A BIG SENSATION At the opening of every automobile season there is great speculation among prospective buyers, as well as old own- ers, aS to which cars will have the most improvements, and which will be the best bargains. The public is critical to the extreme. The American automobile manufacturer must place a perfect car ou the market if he would be successful in its sales. Teh first year the Maxwell Motor Co., now two years old, manufactured and sold in the neighborhood of 20,000 cars. lor the coming season of 1915 this same company Plans the manufacture of @,- 000 cars for their customers. Last year the Maxwell Motor Co. man- ufactured several different body designs. There were three different chassis with engines of different horsepower. With the advenht of the 1915 season and the increased demand for the smaller and medium-priced car, the Maxwell com- pany has limited its production to one chassis and four body designs. The en- gine is four cylinder and is rated at 25 horsepower, although it will develop nearer thirty. The same chassis will carry either a touring car, TOREREEE, ca- briolet or town car. Some of its many new features are: Streamline body, adjustable front seat, Simms high-tension magneto, three- quarter elliptic rear springs, spring ten- sion fan, Kingston carburetor, clear vision windshield, gasoline tank located under dash cowl, Crown fenders with all rivets concealed, double sheel radiator, equipped with shock absorbing device and thermo Syphon cooling system. The car is equipped with two gas headlights 9% inches in diameter and prest-o-lite tanks, oil sidg and tail lights, electric horn, mohair top with envelope, speed- ometer, spare tire carrier, pump, jack, special wrenches and tools. Complete, the Maxwell five-passenger touring car sells for $695, f. 0. b factory. Because of the growing demand, for electrical equipment on cars, the Max- well company will equip any of its cars with Gray & Davis electric starting and lighting system for $55 extra. OWNERS PICKED SLOGAN Motor car slogans came into existence with the first automobile placed on the market and have been coined pretty fre- quently since. ‘‘No Hill Too Steep, No Sand Too Deep,’ ‘‘The Choice of Men Who Know,” “Ask the Man Who Owns One,’ ‘“‘Car With a Conscience,” ‘“‘Car of the American Family,’’ are all bywords that convey the name of some particular car to most of us. The latest acquisition to the list of slogans is that put forth by the Chand- ler Motor Car Co. of Cleveland: ‘‘The ie | fact that many owners: Car With the Marvelous Motor.’’ Dur- ling the coming year all efforts of !Chandler salesmen and advertising men | will be devoted to placing the newest slogan in as many different quarters of the country as possible. “Chandler owners possess the unique distinction of being responsible for the , selection of the new slogan,’”’ says J. D. f > ) 1 Perry Lewis, local agent for the Chand- lier. “Our factory sales department first called attention to the great number of letters received from Chandler owners referring to the ‘marvelous motor’ in their cars. These letters came from widely separated sections of the country and to anyone reading over twenty or thirty of them, the recurrence of the same phrase seemed more than a Cco- incidencé. a. wr SAXON HAS DELIVERY CAR The Saxon Motor Co. has entered the light delivery field with the low- est priced delivery car. of standara design ever produced. Of 400 pounds’ carrying capacity (in addition to che Iniver’s eight), the Saxon delivery car is priced at $395. This new delivery car. has’ such features of standard design as a pow- erful four-cylinder motor, sliding gear transmission, dry plate clutch, shaft drive and standard tread. The top of the body is fitted with storm curtains, which may be lowered so as to protect the load in inclement weather. The loading platform is low, making it convenient for the driver to handle goods. WILL SELL MAXWELL Appreciating the big demand for a low-priced car with electric starter and complete electric equipment, the John- son Automobile Co. has closed a deal for the sale of the Maxwell line in St. Louis and St. Louis County, in addition to the Empire and Ford, which they have handled for some time. A com- plete stock of Maxwell parts will be put in at once to enable them to give good service to all Maxwell owners in this vicinity. _ everywhere.

Allmon, manager of the Mis- souri Auto Specialty Co., spent several days of last week visiting dealers in Automobile supplies and accessories in nearby Illinois districts. Burglars who forced their way into the storage rooms of the Petty Tire & Rubber Co., at Nineteenth and Locust streets, recently, stole $500 worth of tubes, but carefully avoided taxing any casings, indicating they knew that ail casings~- bear serial numbers. The Weber Motor Car Co. will in a few days move to its new home at 2217- 19 Locust street, next to the Halsey building. The company will there be able to make a catchy display of Stude- baker cars. D. D. Brownback of the St. Louis Stearns Automobile Co. spent several days last week at the Stearns factory at Cleveland. The Newell Motor Car Co., formerly the St. Louis Kissel-Kar Co., has moved into the sales and service room next to its former location, the new location being 308 North Twelfth street. The UNUSED AXLE WAS BEST ADVERTISEMENT An axle that has never been used, in fact, never built into a motor car, has proven to be a great advertisement of the carg for which it is built. The story is told by C. W. Payne, Paige dis- tributor at Des Moines, Io. “*There’s a rear axle tucked away in my stockroom that has closed more sales of Paige cars and has captured the ‘goats’ of more competitors than anything I know of,”’ said Payne. “Several years ago, when I secured the distribution of Paige cars, I bought a& supply of parts from the factory, among which was this new rear axle. Since handling the Paige line, I have sold nearly 1000 cars in my territory, but this original axle is still decorating my stockroom, there never having been an axle replacement in any of the cars I have sold or in the cars that were placed in this section before I took over the Paige line, some of which are now at least four years o]d.”’ Whenever a prospective’ purchaser starts an argument on rear axle con- atruction, Mr. Payne leads him gently ~ — . coinpahy now handles the Haynes line.

Several new Auburn agencies were closed by A. O. Helsel, president of the Grand Motor Car Co., last week. Both J. C. Kardell and H. W. Kardell of the Kardell Motor Car Co. are still out in the territory cloging agencies. The Kelly-Springfield tire branch re- ceived an unusually large shipment of solid and pneumatic tires Thursday from the factory. Business is very good, hence this exceptional stock of tires Was necessary. CAR WINDOW DISPLAY HELPED SELL SEVEN The value of display, either in dress, decoration, building, show window or advertising copy, is much discussed. The Lewis Automobile Co. has just finished its remodeling of its building on Wash- ington at Walton avenue, and J. D. Perry Lewis of that company says he is firmly convinced that the attractive display made in the remodeled show windows had much to do with the sale last week of seven automobiles. Four of these were Stevens-Duryeas and three Chandler sixes. The Lewis salesrooms, both as to exterior and inside fittings, compare favorably with those of. any automobile concern in St. Louis. but firmly into his stockroom and points eut to him this axle, giving its history, and has yet to lose a sale to anyone who views this exhibit and appreciates | the worth of a dependable rear axle. —_—— @-—--~ The Post-Dispatch is the only evening news- paper in St. Louis that receives or publishes news gathered by the Associated Press, AUTO THIEF GIVEN FOUR-YEAR SENTENCE Judge Wilbur T. Jones, of the Cireult Court, last week, sentenced Wilbur Stokesbury to a tere: of four years im the penitentiary fer sealing an aute- mobile belonging to W. ©. Culver. Stokesbury has bess implicated in the stealing of several cars, and was & member of the organtzed gang that has been operating in St. Louls for some time. In November, 1913, be was sentenced to a year in the workhouse for automo- bile. stealing but Wag paroled last June; within a month after he was out, he stole cars belonging to J. R. Matthews and W. C. Culver, and thres from Wr. Hartmann and G. A. Buder. He was arrested by Detective Sergeants Mc- Gauly and Helmholt, who were familiar with his record and who have done some fine work in catching automobile thieves Through the activity of the Auto- mobile Club of St. Louis, most of the stolen cars have been recovered and a great many of the offenders have been cdnvicted. Prosecuting Attorney Howard Sidener and his assistants, Thos. J. Stanton and Ray Weinbrenner have done splendid work in the vigorous pros- ecution of automobile thieves of all classes, including those who steal cars to sell them, or keep them, and thoke who steal cars for joy riding purposes. As a result of the work of Mr. Sidener and his assistants in the Court of Crim- inal Correction, almost one hundred per cent of convictions have been ob- tained, and this has greatly helped te discourage the practice. There are now fewer cars stolen and more are recov- ered in St. Louis than in any other large city. ait - | CRESCENT CARS ALL MODELS.

One bond issue was submitted at a general election, which added only $5000 to the cost of the election, and the other three submissions were at special elections The total cost in interest and bond issue elections to date is - $927,159.50, or onethird the amount of the bond issue that the public must now vote to complete the eastern approaches to the The city has set aside, or is about to, $920,833 in a sinking fund This fund draws only 2 per cent interest It is set aside quarterly, at a rate of one- twentieth of the $3,500,000 bond issue, or $175,000 each year. conduct its fourth election,*at a have retired the original bridge The deposits have not been enough in the expense of paying interest on BRIDGE BUNDS WILL WIN BY 910 1, FOREUAST Prediction of Sweeping Victory Based on Citizens’ Canvass of 26 Wards. The useless daily outlay of $883.50 in interest on the $3,500,000 bonds with which the uncompleted free bridge was built, by a 5-to-1 vote will end next Friday, when the $2,750,000 bond issue election is held, according to the com- pleted canvass of the Citizens’ Free Bridge Committee. The exact figures of the canvass had not been completely compiled by last night, although all but a few precincts in two wards have been finally report- ed. The ratio of 5 to 1 is indicated by the 26 wards that have been fully tabu- lated, while only at two-thirds vote is necessary to carry the bonds.

Charles J. Lammert, president of the Building Trades Council, said yesterday that the bond issue will receive almost the entire vote of the 12,000 members of that organization. Traction Repeal Wrought Changé, ‘“T have never seen the members of the council so enthusiastic over any proposition,”” said Lammert. ‘The bends have not only been indorsed by the council as a whole, but by every local that has met in the last two weeks. “The change of sentiment on the part of the members of the Building Trades Council was brought about by the re- peal of the Southern Traction franchise and the assurances of Mayor Kiel and other city officials that the bridge will be completed by union labor. ‘If the voters of St;--Louis decree that the bridge be completed, there is no body of men in St. Louls who will profit by that decision more than the 12,000 members of the Bullding Trades Coun- cll, as these men—many of whom are out of employment—will be give the preference when the work begins. The members of the Council realize this, and | that is why they are so enthusiastically | in favor of the bonds, "The leaders of the council have been diligent in advising the members to vote ‘Yes,’ and have succeeded in convincing them, almost to a man, that it will be greatly to their advantage to do so."’ Mayor Procliaims Half Holiday. Mayor Kiel yesterday issued a proclamation declaring a half holl- day Friday, so that all men may spend the aftefnoon working to get out a heavy vote on the bridge bond issue. . The city hall will close at noon and about 3500 city employes will be re- leaséd from duties for the work. In his proclamation Mayor Kiel urges all factories and business es- tablishments to declare a half holiday for the same purpose. The proclama- tion, in part, follows: For a number of years the good name of St. Louls has suffered attacks on account of the fact that the Municipal Bridge has re- mained uncompleted. With the determination to wipe out this disgrace, the people demanded through initiative petitions that another bridge bond issue be sub- mitted at a special election. The outcome of this election is so vital to the welfare of the city that I hope all firms will ob- serve a half holiday that a full vote may be recorded and a sub- stantial ‘majority returned for the bond issue, Many firms already have notified the Citizen's Bridge Committee that they will give employes a half holi- day. The Laclede Gas Light Co. will Close its plant all day, keeping open the general offices only during the morning.

NG REALTY MEN SAY “BUILD ‘CENTRAL PARKWAY" Authorities on Land Values Declare That the Enhance- ment of Downtown Prop- erty Will More Than Off-| * .* get Money Spent for the Construction of Gigantic Traffic Highway Through - Heart of City. EXPERTS DISCUSS PLAN FOR TAX ASSESSMENT W. J. Holbrook, Who Once Opposed Project, Favors a Levy on the District That Will Be Most Benefitted by Improvement When Finally Completed. Coincident with the passage of the bill authorizing the condemnation of the . £1 blocks embraced in the strip te be occupied by the proposed Centra] Traf- fic Partway, the city, it is predicted by * real estate men, will show improvement. Oposition to the parkway is confined principally to the owners of land in the probable benefit district, who dread ad- @itional tax assessments. ‘' Under the new charter, unless by “bond issue, the entire city cannot be ~assessed. But t commissioners ap- “pointed by the Circuit Court to fix the ‘ benefit district are given wide latitude. With the idea of lessenng the burden of the cost of the project, a compre- hensive benefit district is being advo- cated. : Jones for Graduate Assesament The benefit district should extend from Cheuteau to Franklin avenues or “te Cass avenue, and from Fourth street ‘to Kine’s highway, according to James CC. Jones, of the law firm of Jones, Hocker, Hawes & Angert. Jones gave figures showing how the cost could be equitably divided among the property- “holders of the district. The ratio of the A cost, according to his calculation, would Mfbe about 1 to 5, or about 2 per cent. “Ais idea is to graduate the assessment “according to the benefits to be derived, “with the abutting property-holders pay- ing 2% per cent. As the district proposed by Jones would include both the business and “vesidence sections, the cost would not . =, Work hardship on any of these prop- ea -holders. ifiiam T. Matthews, a real estate »uthority, says the enhancement to the ‘adjoining property will exceed that of “thd assessment, however large. He ‘favors the parkway project as one of the biggest things planned for the ad- , vYancement of the city. ‘Thomas Wright, vice president of the “Third National Bank, believes the park- way project to be a commendable one, ‘and also favors an equitable distribu- - tion of the cost. As its benefits will be universal, he believes the city as a whole should be assessed. Incidentally, he says the enhancement or Chestnut ‘street will be greater than either on | “hee 3 or Pine street, notwithstanding e fact these thoroughfares wil] get the “business from the north side of Market and the south side of Chestnut street, which will be absorbed by the parkway. Holbrook Now Urges Parkwry. Wy. J. Holbrook declares ttle value of i “ethe proposed parkway as a factor fn the voae upbuflding will be potent. At the “outset, Hofbrook discouraged the park- way Pian, but he is now awakening to the possibilities Incident to it.

O'Leary, the Democratic candidate in the Second Illinois District, In the letter the President com- mended the Progressive candidate as a Democrat who should receive the support of the good people of that district. When the mistake was dis- covered the President wired Vaughan, requesting him not to use the letter. Sms} ee ee aa Special MAY, STERN & CO.

QUARANTINE Danger of Foot and Mouth Disease Stops Shipments Ex- cept for Slaughter. CARS MUST BE MARKED Stringent Regulations Made by Government to Prevent Spread of Infection. WASHINGTON, Oct. 8$1.—The Union Stock Yards at Chicago were quaran- tined today by the Department of Agri- culture so as to prevent shipments of livestock, excepting’ for immediate slaughter because of foot-and-mouth disease, This explaantion of the Government’s action was issued at the Department of Agriculture: “Because of the danger that cattle in- fected with the foot-and-month @isease may have passed through them, the Union Stock Yards in Chicage have been quarantined by the Secretary of Agriculture. This quarantine goes into effect immediately, | “Under the provisions of this quaran- tine, no cattle, sheep or swine can be moved from the stock yards in inter- state or foreign commerce, except for the purpose of immediate slaughter and under permits issued by Federal in- spectors. In such case, they must be transported in sealed cars placarded ‘For Immediate Slaughter.’ ° “The stock in these cars can only be unloaded into reserve pens which have been designated for this purpose by the chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry. Cars used for the transportation of stock from the yards must be thorough- ly cleansed and disinfected before they can be moved again in interstate or foreign commerce. Shipments ef stock into the yards from uninfected areas must be unloaded through cleaned and disinfected docks and alley-ways under the supervision of the Federal efficials. When reloaded, the stock must be and the cars officially sealed. “These measures are considered essen- tial to the prevention of the spread of the disease. Foot-and-mouth is one of the most contagious infections known, and ff it were possible to move stock from the Chicago yards to the country for feeding or dairy purposes, there is grave Ganger that the disease might be disseminated over large areas. “Up to the present time, no case of foot-and-mouth diseases have been found in the Unign yards, but there is some reason to believe that infected stock may have passed through, It {fs at least certafn that shipments of stock to Chicago have been made from re- gions where the foot-and-mouth disease has broken out.” MISSOURI ROADS SEEK TO RAISE FREIGHT RATES Application Is Filed With Com- mission to Increase Tariffs Not Already Ruled Upon. JEFFERSON CITY, Oct. 81.—All of the trunk. line railroads of the State today fled with the Public Service Commis- sion schedules of increased freight rates on commodities which have not been covered specifically by statutory enactment or by ruling of the commis- sion.

LOUIS FIRM T0 BUILD ENGINES FOR 311.5, SUBMARINES Government Places Rush Order for Equipment for Boats With Busch-Diesel Co. Vigorous activity by the Government to enlarge the American submarine flot- lila, following the recent successes of this type of craft in the European war, is indicated by a rush érder placed with the Busch-Sulzer Bros.-Diesel Engine Co., Second and Utah streets, for six submarine engines of 600 horsepower each. James R. Harris, general man- ager of the company, says he has as- surances of further rush orders from the Government. The engines now contracted for are intended for the submarines L-5, L-6, and L-7 now being built by the Lake Torpedo Boat Co., at Bridgeport, Conn. Each boat will ,have two engines. The amount of the contract exceeds $250,000. The St. Louis plant will begin tomorrow running day and night, and will double its present force of 200 men. Lieut. L. P. Warren, U. S. N., has teen assigned by the Government to re- main at the plant as inspecter during the building of the engines. The company has promised to have the engines ready within a year. The St. Louis company is associated with a com- pany in Switzerland employing 8000 men, where it required two years to construct the engines for the United States sub- marine G-3. The St. Louis firm has patents pend- ing for a new engine which it is be- Heved will completely overcome the Kreat trouble previously experienced in submarines of the breaking of their crankshafts at critical moments.

TARBELL has always been the Industry has also had industry. ‘The, GREAT hold of militarism mon’ men were nothing but cannon fodder. that idea; but men are ceasing to be cattle in owners and managers who are recognizing the value of. men and saying that there is nothing that should not be done to develop their powers. It is the recognition of the possibilities in common men that is chang- ing things. They are too good to kill. You might just as well deliberately burn up a coal mine as let a body of workingmen wear themselves out, kill their powers. When we get it firmly into our heads that common men are too valuable to go uncuhtivated, a long way toward discouraging War. If they are too valuable for cann fodder, then even a Kaiser will not allow them to be so used. But the men will see to it themselves as they come to realize their value. The stand many bodies of laborers and of socialists take against war is bound to be stronger as time goes on. It will be stronger afte: this war. The common man won't tolerate it when he comes to see that he is getting nothing from it and that there is a peaceful way for him to get more out of life. Moreover when he sees that those who direct his work are in sympathy with his ambition, believe in his powers, he is going to be more of a person than ever. The new industrial order is going to do an enormous amMuunt toward putting an end to war. It is going to make life too interesting, too pros- percus and too co-operative to stop every now and then and destroy all that has been achieved in a few generations. War has been a way of getting things.

Every man who organizes his factory force on scientific principles, trains his men, opens the way for their advancement, considers health, safety and happiness as sound business principles, who fits wages to service and takes into some form of partnership everybody who stays by, who regards business not as “his” or the stockholder’s but as the joint product of everybody who contributes to it-that man is pulling the teeth of war, for he is making peace worth while, and the way the world has been run peace has not been worth while, for many men, Waf was more interesting and profitable. If industry were to be continued on o!d lines, or as it used to be, in our own steel and wool mills and in the mines of the world, there would be little to choose between war and industry. The former had many ad- vantages. It had its thrills and its opportunities for iron crosses and things, and it put one in a noble company and you could wear a uniform and march to a band, and if you were wounded you were given a pension and were a hero, and if you were killed you belonged to a holy company. Nothing of that kind for a coal miner or a cotton spinner or a railroad brakeman. But things have changed in industry. It also is training men as war has in the past. When every group of miners, street cleaners and shovelers become a trained body and are handled as so many soldiers are, then out of this body those fit are advanced regularly. When you get the whole body of labor handled iike a decent organization, not like a dump heap, you'll have done something to make the life of the common laborer as desirable as that* of the common soldier. I count enormously on the goneral organization of industry to make it more interesting to men than war. Is the Bottom Dropping Out of the World? BY ; & Ato o f oe owas, "Ene MAN across from me at a dinner took a fifty-cent cigar out of his mouth and replaced it. with the following remark (it seemed to me a pity to tale out a fifty-eent cigar for a thirty-cent remark, but probably he felt driven to it) ‘‘Well, there’s one thing about this war; it’s giving us all a chance to see through human, na- ture. The mask is stripped off from civilization Now we know at last what men and women are really like.”’ [ suppose the remark irritated me too much, but the man looked so comfortable and contented with it, and I was so afraid he would make another, or that every man with a fifty-cent cigar at the table would pile in and agree with him, that—well, I don’t remem- ber just what I said, but the zeneral idea was that the world was full of old respectable rubber-tire ren-arks that everybody had been running on for ten thousand years, and nofwdy could puncture them. This idea about civilization being a mask, for instance. *‘Seratch a gentleman and you get a savage.’’ was Noah’s favorite remark. When Noah had been trying in vain’for three hours to get some poor, wild, reckless relative to come into the ark, that was what he said to him. Jacob one morning got up from breakfast saying something horrid to Rachel and flinging himself out of the room; and Rachel, looking after the retreating form of her su*ve and elegant husband, said to her sister ‘‘Seratch Jacob and -you get Esau.’’ ~ Some people assume that every time a man is ugly he has just smashed a hole down through into his real self. Everybody ean see what he is. And when he is decent he is pretending. All virtues (they tell us) are put on, and all beau'iful and harmonious things are a kind of rouge. Civilization itself for ten thousand years is a colossal affectation, every- body keeping guard on himself lest he should give himself away, and everybody spying on everybody else and keeping them up lest everybody should give everybody else away, and the bottom should drop out of the world. Of course the nearest thing to having the bottom drop out of the world is what is happening in Europe today. When a man sitting quietly and coinfortably at table watching the ‘bottom drop out of a world turns to me pleasantly and says ‘‘I told you so,’’ and acts rested and relieved by having human nature look as mean and savage as he always thought it was—it seems to me something ought to be done or said by the world to this man which will make him feel lone- some and uncomfortable. How many people agree with him? The most important thing that is getting ready today in behalf of Europe is what America thinks about and is going to do with this man’s remark. When this war is over, and a world has to be made once more—pain- fully and slowly—out of the human beings that are left, the older nations of the earth are going to gather around our boundless, thoughtless, mighty youngster-nation aud say: ‘‘What does America think of human nature? What kind of a next thousand years does America pick out for it and pro- pose to get for it?’’ Then they will wait and hear what we say. Two opposite theories of human nature are going to be laid before the American people. One or the other of these tleorics we are daily getting ready to vote on and adopt as our nationa! faih — as our programme for a worud. Svon there are going Author STANLEY LEE inspired -Millionaires,. I believe that our American people are goig to rally around this latter standard—this flag of humanity—of all the graver, older nations of the earth. We are going to proclaim it upon the air ¢s our national religion. We are going to sing with it, dedicate nations to it, build skyscrapers to it and cathedrgM and railroads and cities to it. Both of these sayings are different ways of putting the‘same idea—the idea that every man is mixed, woven part out of gentleman and part out of savage. Put it one way, and you have what Europe has now, a civilization that is merely waiting to be smashed. Put it the other way, and you have a civilization that is waiting to wake up. In other’ words, we turn it around: ‘“Seratch a savage and you get a gentleman. America’s peace is the fruit of the American theory of human nature. The war in Europe is the final sublime and awful culmination of Europe’s theory of human nature. It is not merely a huge gun-battle that is raging in Europe. It 1s a theory of human nature that is raging there—the Krupp theory of human nature—‘Scratch a gentleman and you get a savage.’ All Europe has rallied to this belief. They have formed huge fanati- cal bodies of men called“armies, all devoted to the faith that the only final sure way to deal with people is to assume that just underneath they are savages. They have conceived and bunlt the dreadnought: a kind of vast sacrificial altar on water, a kind of cathedral to hate and fear and suspi- cion of human nature, filled day and night with the worshippers of a nega- tive religious faith—the faith that Right cannot make Might, the faith that guns ntake human nature, that only armor plate can protect God. Without Krupp what a to become of poor, he Ipless God? * ¥ 9? bos week two cold, dead ee German and a Frenchman— were found lying in a long death grapple under the night sky. For many hours they had been lying there together like two strange statues of their own hate-—effiges of their own fear and despair about themselves and about one another. Their dead fingers had to be pried away from one another’s throat. Let no man tell me these men were being themselves when they died. They died crazed with the he they had been taught about human nature. The only people in Europe today who are being their real selves are the Red Cross people. It is they who represent human nature. It is they who are the delegates today from all human nature, appointed by all of | us to represent mankind on a sick and hysterical continent. It is a harsh and bitter thing to say of a savage that he would do what the gentlemen of Europe are doing now. San Francisco had a mere earthquake. Merely the ground under peo- ple’s feet shook, and mere stones and iron girders fell on people’s heads. But the people were fearless, steadfast, great-hearted, quiet about their souls and about one-another. And men and women stood out above the ruins, heroic, unmastered, and with a sudden strange godlikeness of them. Like stars in a wide heaven the men and the women stood while the flames licked up the stones of the earth and the skyscrapers rocked like poplars in a wind. Human beings looked in each other's eyes and knew themselves, and knew God! This is what human nature is. It is what European human nature is. In San Francisco they had a mere earthquake. In Eu- rope they are having a manquake. Their religion or theory of human nature — the hell-about-people tou be but two flags, practically, in the whole world. On one flag will be written the strange and tragi-comic saying that has plunged a where continent into war because it be- lieved it: ‘‘Scratch a gentleman and you get a savage.”’ On the other will be in- scribed in letters of light: ‘‘Wake up a savage and you get 4’ soa 17? which they have been drilled into believing for forty years, and which now millions of other men who did not be- heve it have been cheated into believ- ing—has worked its way to the surface and produced its manquake. Nobody knows what human nature is, who judges it, or constructs a world for it, by the way it acts during a man- quake, “"*O49INE. ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCBR. NOVEMBER 1, 1944.

Kreisler’s personal story of the campaign,in Galicia during which he was. wounded by being ridden down under the hoofs of a charge of Cossacks was, published in the Neues Wiener Tageblatt of Sept. 16, a copy of which has just reached this country. He was saved by the devotion of his orderly, who car- ried the unconscious virtuoso off the field upon his back, although wounded by a bullet which passed through his knapsack. Kreisler, who was lamed by a bruise of the nerves in his leg, was’ invalided to Vienna and placed in the care of his wife, an American woman, who is serving as a Red Cross nurse. By this time he may have rejoined his regt ment at the front, as he declares it his ardent hope to do. He is a Lieutenant of the Austrian Reserves. A translation of his vivid interview is as follows: : : 66 66 T is well known that as an artist one lives in a world peculiar to himself, with his own personal experiences and emotions. But let me say that when I hastened to my regimental colors a veritable storm came over me which drove away the artist in me. Scarcely had 1 donned the Emperor’s coat than I felt myself a soldier, inspired with the selfsame warlike spirit that glowed in my comrades and my men. “This same spirit of heroic self-sacrifice was displayed by our men at the very outset, in their first engagement, when in the midst of the enemy’s artillery fire they dug out trenches with the utmost coolness. Before us lay a widely spread swamp, over which a single bridge gave passage. This could — be commanded by our infantry. We had to lie perfectly quiet in the trenches, so that we might entice the Russians over that bridge. Behind us was our own artillery, which opened fire upon the enemy’s, which was trying to locate our position. In order to do this more effectively they opened fire upon the whole field, hoping that we would betray ourselves. “The shrapnel howled, whizzing and singing through the air. At first this music made a most uncanny impression, but one gets used to it very soon. I lay thus in the trenches, listening on and off, talking with the men, and waitirg longingly for night to come. Each night—nights of plenteous moon- light—the animals brought supplies to the trenches, and we certainly received good hot meals. Never have I tasted better soup than this simple, healthy fare. So splendid was the humor of the troops that my sol@fers played cards by moonlight in the trenches. “A few days later I had the opportunity of seeing through my field glasses the Russian infantry, as well as Russian artillery, in action. We noticed then that the Russian artillery were good shots, but that about 25 per cent of their bombs failed to explode. The ef- fect of this observation was to make our soldiers be- siege the officers incessantly with requests to lead them forward into battle. They wanted to charge. We had a hard time convincing them that our inactivity was for the present absolutely necessary. “We found, too, that most of the wounds inflicted by the Russian fire were of a light nature. This is ex- plained by the fact that the Russian conical bullets are relatively small and are possessed of an extremely powerful penetrative ,effect. They leave very small wounds, in which gangrene seldom appears. “Once during the action I had the opportunity of seeing and experiencing a grandiose battle picture. Our regiment was on a hill, as reserve. I was, therefore, an objective onlooker, as it were. - It was an un- canny striking tableau. It was about 11 in the morning, and there was the vast plain below with the heavens arch- ing above. The two armies were facing each other, each with a line extending a kilo- meter along the front. On one side I could behold our cavalry, stationed on a far-off wooded declivity; on the other there was a section of the Cossacks. I saw, too, our batteries: and the Russians - taking up their places. “One episode here made a great impression upon us. A Russian battery had assumed its position on an edge of the woods. Scarcely had they done this when an Austrian battery, from a post where they could not be seen by the enemy, opened up a vigorous fire. For about half an hour the thundering duel continued. At first the enemy shot with full. bat- tery, then with four- guns, and finally with but two, which in their turn were The great violinist as he returned wounded from the front, hav- ghee oa Shae ing lost 20 pounds from soon silenced. e ater heard that these two cannon hunger and exposure. were captured in a charge by a squadron of Austrian cavalry. “Wonderful, too, was the conduct of our own troops who were recruited from the ranks of our Alpine soldiers. What a glorious sight it was! And the bravura with which they made their way closer to the enemy’s lines! Never have I heard more beautiful, more sublime music than the hurrahs of these troops at the moment they gained the enemy’s position. Such stormy hurrahs that the wind bore to our ears! “It was a gigantic struggle, and so great was its fascination, that all of us wished we were in the midst of/it. Although each of us would have been but an atom in the mass, we were almost overpowered by the desire to plunge into the thickest of the fray. This magnetism of the battlefield affected us all to the last man. It inspired me to see how our men, with a childlike trust in their officers, and with almost insane heroism, charged forward.

He as a Lieutenant in the Austrian army and she as a Red Cross Nurse. “Hes difficult it was for me to keep my men lying quigtly in the irenches! They wanted to get a look at the foe, suv that they might have as many targets as possible. I couid talk for hours, if I wished to tell of the anonymous deeds of bravery which every day and every hour brought forth —deeds performed with no ulterior thought, no desire for reward. How many cfficers’ servants marched along with their superiors, even though” wounded, so that tkey might stick by their masters! “And there was one fellow, a cook, who refused to abandon the wounded horse who carried his cooking pot. He re- mained, right through artillery firing, by the side of his wounded animal, until some doctors had arrived and given the horse’s waund medical treatment. How touching it is to find humans so attached to their horses, insisting upor regular treatment, and the binding and curing of wounds It really amounts to special hospitals for animals! in St. Louis on his “When a man fights with such soldiers, and his soug swelis with the same inspiration that guides them, wher most receiit tour. he beholds daily and hourly such examples of self-denying heroism right before his very eyes, he can feel no fatigue. One feels rejuvenated ~ new strength flows in his being. “For 12 whole days I did not take my clothes off. And the strangest part of 1! is that I did not feel it as an uncomfortable ordeal. I slept every night”in wet grass without any other protection than my cloak. Were this during my ordinary civil life I certainly should have contracted a heavy inflammation of the lungs. But E escaped with nothing easel audi, than a cold in the head. “On the field all of one’s senses become more <ecute. You see and hear with greater precision. I don’t recall any trouble with my stomach. All nervous and neurotic symptoms disappear as if by a magic spell. The whole organism functions normally and is infused with energy. “And if, as has happened with me, you are for a time withdrawn from the firing line, you have the sublime, strengthening feeling t:«t you have participated in the powerful work, of our glorious army with your e3mrades--for on the fleld every soldier is the: equal of his officers. “You can conceive how it is when I tell you that I look forward to the moment of my recovery with the utmost gladness, so that | may again be with my regiment. —back again with the comrades of war who have in so short a time grown so dear to my heart.” | The tale of how Kreisler was wounded is here taken up by his wife, in a letter to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Lies of New Yo... She tells how the famous artist, after only three.weeks’ service, telegraphed he was returning on a hospital train, and how, on seing him limp off the train, “my knees went from upder me with shock.” “He had a three weeks’ growth of beard,” she continues, “which was more gray than black, and was hollow-eyed and cheeked. He had lost about 20 pounds in weight, and limped from a bruised nerve center in his leg. “It seems he didn’t get out of his clo.hes for more than 18 days, and in all that time slept under the heavens, in the dam)» and marsh. The accident to Fritz’ was the following: One night when the regiment was in trenches, in horrible dirt and mud, there was a sudden alarm and they were attacked by Cossacks. Fritz’s only recol- lection is being suddenly overridden and of shooting the second horseman, when he lost consciousness from pain. . . . The da after Fritz was sent away another terrific battle took place, and every single officer was woun@ed. Fritz’s own particular company was almost depleted.” NOVEMBER 1, 1914.

Collier & Son.) just abreast of Warden Point, when the daylight disclosed her to us. In an instant we were after her. It was a near thing, for she was a flyer, and could do two miles to our one; bu: we just reached her as she went swashing by. She saw us at the last moment, foF I attacked her awash, since other- wise we could not have had the pact to reach her. She swung away and the first torpedo missed, but the second took her full under the counter. Heavens, what a smash! The whole stern seemed to go aloft. I drew off and watched her sink. She went down in seven minutes, leaving her masts and funnels over the water and a cluster of her people holding to them. She was the Virginia of the Bibby Line— 12,000 tons—and laden, like the others, with food- stuffs from the East. The whole surface of the sea huge black vessel with black funnels, flying _.. the well-known house fog of the P. and O. Co She was not a mile distant and I calculated in an in- stant that even if she had seen us she would not have time to turn and gét away before we could reach her. We went straight for her, therefore, keeping awash just as we were. They saw the sinking vessel in front of them and that little dark speck moving over the sur- face, and they suddenly un- derstood their danger. |! saw a number of men rush to the bows, and there was a rattle of rifle fire. Two bullets were flattened upon our four-inch armor. You might as well try to stop a charging bill with paper pellets as the Iota with rifle fire. I had learned my lesson from the Adela, and this time I hdd the torpedo discharged at a safer dis- tanec — 250 yards. We caught her amidships and the explosion was tremend- ous, but we were well out- side its area. She sank almost instantaneously. I am sorry for her people, of whom I hear that more than 20%, including 70 Las- cars and 40 £passengers, were drowned. Yes, I am sorry for them. But when I think of the huge floating tranary that went to the sottom, I rejoice as a man oes who has carried out shat which he plans. Jj was a bad afternoon that for the P. and O. Co. The second ship which we destroyed was, as we have since learned, the Moldavia, of 15,000 tons, one of their finest vessels; but about half past 3 we blew up the. Cusco, of 8000, of the same line, also from Eastern ports, and laden with corn. Why she came on in face of the wireless messages, which must have warned her of danger, I cannot imagine. The other two steamers which we blew up that day, the Maid of Athens (Robson Line) and the Cormorant, were neither of them provided with ap- paratus, and came blindly to their dest®@G@ction. Both were small boats of from 6000 to 7000 tons. In the tase of the second, I had to rise to the surface and fire six 12-pound shellg under her water line before she would sink. In each case the crew took to the boats, and so far as I know no casualties occurred. After that no more steamers came along, nor did I expect them.- Warnings must by this time have been flying in all directions. But we had no reason to be dissatisfied with our first day. Between the Maplin Sands and the Nore we had sunk five ships of a total tonnage of about 50,000 tons. Already the London mar- kets would begin to feel the pinch. And Liloyd’s—poor old Lloyd’s—what a demented state it would be in! Il could imagine the London evening papers and the howl- ing in Fleet street. We saw the result of our actions, for it was quite laughable to see the torpedo boats buzzing like angry wasps out of Sheerness in the even- ing.. They were darting in every direction across the estuary, and the aeroplanes and hydroplanes were: like flights of crows, black dots against the red western sky. They quartered the whole river mouth, until they dis- covered us at last. Some sharp-sighted fellow with a telescope.on board of a destroyer got a sight of our periscope, and came for us full speed. No doubt he would very gladly have rammed us, even if it had meant his own destruction, but that was not part of our pro- gram at all. I'sank her and ran her east-southeast with an occasional rise. Finally we brought her to, not very far from the Kentish coast, and the searchlights of our pursuers were far on the western sky line. There we lay quietly all night, for a submarip- at night is nothing PAGE FOUR. ‘Heavens, what a crash kere more than a very third-rate surface torpedo boat. Be sides we were all weary and needed rest. Do not for- get, you captains of men, when you grease and trim your pumps and compressors and rotators, that the human machine needs some tending also. I had put up the wireless mast above the conning tower, and had no difficulty in calling up Capt. Stephan. He was lying, he said, off Ventnor, and had been unable to reach his station on account of engine trouble, which he had now set right. Next morning he proposed to block the Southampton approach. He had destroyed one large Indian boat on his way down Channel. We exchanged good. wishes. Like myself, he needed rest. I was up at 4 in the morning, however, and called all hands to overhaul the boat. She was somewhat up by the head, owing to the forward torpedoes having been used, so we trimmed her by opening the forward compensation tank, admitting as much water as the torpedoes had weighed. We also overhauled the star- board air compressor and one of the periscope motors which had been jarred by the shock of the first ex- plosion. We had hardly got ourselves shipshape when the morning dawned. — HAVE no doubt ‘that a good many ships which had taken refuge in the French ports at the , first alarm had run across and got safely up the river in the night. Of course I could have attacked them, but I did not care to take risks—and there are always risks for a submarine at night. But one had miscalculated his time, and there she was, was covered with the float- ing’ grain. “John Bull will have to take up a hole or two of his belt if this goes on,” said Vornal, as we watched the scene. ND it was at that moment that the very worst danger occurred that could befall us. "I tremble now when I think how our glorious voyage might have been nipped in the bud. I had freed the hatch of my tower and was looking at the boats of the Virginia with Vor- nal beside me, when there was a swish and a terrific splash in the water be side us which covered us both with spray. We looked up and you can imagine our feelings when we saw an aeroplane hov- ering a few hundred feet above us like a hawk. With its silencer, it was perfectly noiseless, and had its bomb not fallen into the sea we should never have known what had destroyed us. She was circling around in the hope of dropping a sec- ond ohe, but we shoved on all speed, crammed down the rudders, and vanished into the side of a roller. I kept the deflection in- dicator falling until a had = put 50 good feet of water “ between the aeroplane and ourselves, for I know well how deep they can see un- der the surface. However, we soon threw her off our track, and when we came to the surface near Mar- gate there was no sign of her, unless she was one of several which we saw hovering over Horne Bay. HERE was not a ship in the offing save a few small coasters and little {000-ton steamers, which were beneath my notice. For several hours I kaw submerged with a blank periscope. ‘Then I had an inspiration. Orders had been Marconied to every foodship to lie in French waters and dash Mons after dark. I was as sure of it as if they had been recorded in our own receiver. Well if they were there, that was where I should be also. I blew out the tanks and rose, for there was no sign of any warship near. They had some good system of signaling from the shore, however, for I had not got to the North Foreland before three destroyers came foaming after me, all converging from different direc- tions. They had about as good a chance of catching me as three spaniels would of overtaking a porpoise. Out of pure bravado—I know it was very wrong—I waited until they were actually within gunshot. Thén I sank and we saw each other no more. x It is, as I have said, a shallow, sandy coast, and sub- marine navigation is very difficult. The worst mishap that can befall a boat is to bury its nose in the side of a sand drift and be held there. Such an accident might have been the end of our boat, though with our Fluess cylinders and electric lamps we should have found no difficulty in getting out at the air lock and in walking ashore across the bed of the ocean. As it was, how- ever, I was able, thanks to our excellent charts, to keep the channel and so to gain the open straits. There we rose about midday, but, observing a hydroplane at no great distance, we sank again for half an hour. When we came up for the second time, all was peaceful around us, and the English coast was lining the whole West- ern horizon. We kept outside the Goodwins and straight down Channel until we saw a line of black dots in front of us, which I knew to be the Dover-Calais tor- pedoboat cordon. When two miles distant we dived and came up again seven miles to the southwest, with- SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST, LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—NOVEMBER 1, 1914.

HEN we rose, a large steamer flying the Ger- man flag was within half a mile of us. It was the North German Lioyd Altona from New York to Bremen. I raised our whole hull and dipped our flag to her. It was amusing to see the amazement of her people at what they must have regarded.as our unparalleled impudence in- those En- glish-swept waters. They cheered us heartily, and the tricolor was dipped in greeting as they went roaring past us. Then I stood in to the French coast. It was exactly as I had expected. There were three great British steamers lying at anchor in Boulogne, outer harbor. They were the Caesar, the King of the East and the Pathfinder, none less than 10,000 tons. I suppose they thought they were safe in French waters, but what did I care about three-mile limits and inter- national law! The view of my Government was that England was blockaded, food contraband, and vessels carrying it to be destroyed. The lawyers could argue about it afterward. My business was to starve the enemy’ any way I could. Within an hour the three ships were under the waves and the Iota was steaming down the Picardy coast, looking for fresh victims. The Channel was ‘covered with English torpedo“boats buz- zing and whirling like a cloid of midges. How they thought they could hurt me I cannot imagine, unless by accident I were to come up underneath one of them. More dangerous were the aeroplanes which circled here and there. avhe water being calm, I had several times to descend as deep as a hundred feet before I was sure that I was out of their sight. After I had blown up the three ships at Boulogne I saw two aeroplanes flying down Channel, and I knew that they. woul’ head off any vessels which were coming up. There was one very large white steamer lying off Havre, but she steamed west before I could reach her. I dare say Stephan or one of the others would get her before long. But those infernal aeroplanes spoiled our sport for that day. Not another steamer did I see, save the never-ending torpedo boats. I consoled myse:if with the reflection, however, that no food was passing me on its way to London. That was what I was there for, after all. If I could do it with- out sp2nding my torpedoes, all the better. Up to date I had fired 10 of them and sunk nine steamers, so I had not wasted my weapons. That night I came back to the Kent coast and lay upon the bottom in shallow water near Dungeness. E were all trinymed and ready at the first break of day, for I expected to catch some ships +-darkness and had miscalculated their time. Sure enough, there was a great steamer coming up Channel and flying the American flag. It was all the same to me what fiag she flew so long as she was en- gaged in conveying contraband of war to the British Isles. There were no torpedo boats about at the mo- ment, so I ran out on the surface and fired a shot across her bows. She seemed inclined to go on, so I put a gecond one just above her water line on her port bow. ‘She stopped then and a very angry man began to gestic- ulate from the bndge. I ran the Iota almost alongside. “are you the captain?” I asked. “What the "—— I won’t attempt to reproduce his language. “You have foodstuffs on board?” J said. ae OI A a i a ce atl, ts raion: neti oe FOL it EE Met ile i aia ee which had tried to make the Thames in the | “Off Cape Wrath I picked up @ paper from a small schooner.” “It’s an American ship, you biind beetle!” he cried. “Can’t you see the flag?

Get your people into the boats.” R } I had to show him I was not bluffing, so I drew off and began putting shells into him just on the water line. When I had knocked six holes in his ship he was very busy on his boats. I fired 20 shots altogether, and no torpedo was needed, for she was lying over with a terrible list to port and presently came right on to her side. There she lay for two or three minutes be- fore she foundered. There were eight boats crammed with people lying around her when she went down. I believe everybody was saved, but I could not wait to inquire. From all quarters the poor old panting, use- less war vessels were hurrying. I filled my tanks, ran our bows under, and came up 15 miles to the south. Of course I knew ‘there would be ae big row afterward -—as there was—but that did not help the starving crowds around the London bakers, who only saved their skins, poor devils, by explaining to the mob 4 they had nothing to bake. ‘Before morning the Beta reported itself.’’ SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

To Be Concluded in the Next Sunday Post- Y this time I was becoming rather anxious, as you can imagine, to know what was going on in the world ‘and what England was thinking | about it all. I ran alongside a fishing boat, ¢ therefore, and ordered them to give up their papers. Unfortunately, they had none, except a rag of an even- : fous ing paper which was full of nothing but betting news. “ 5 mee In a second attempt I came alongside a small yachting if party from Eastbourne, who were frightened to death 1 at our sudden appearance out of the depths. From them we were lucky enough to get the London Courier. It was interesting reading—so interesting that I had to announce it all to the crew. Of course, you know the British style of headline, which gives you all the news at a glance. It seemed to me that the whole paper was headlines, it was in such a state of excitemen’ Hardly a word about me and my flotilla We were a second page. The first one began something li this: ; : CAPTURE, OF BLANKENBERG! ; Destruction of the Enemy’s Fleet—Burning of Town ——Trawliers Destroy Mine Ficld—Loss of Two Battleships—It Is the End? | Of course, what I had foreseen had vecurred. The town was actually occupied by the British. And they thought it was the end! We would see about that. : On the ‘round-thecorner page, at the back of the 4 glorious resonant leaders, was this littie notice: “HOSTILE SUBMARINES “Several of the enemy’s submarines are at sea, and have inflicted some appreciable damage upon our mer- chant ships. The danger spots upon Monday and the F greater part of Tuesday appear to have been the mouth of the Thames and the western entrance to thie Solent. On Monday, between the Nore and Margate, there were sunk five large steamers, the Adela, Moldavia, Cuso, Cormorant and Maid of Athens, particulars of which ; ‘ Pe ee ee ee eS was sunk the Verulam, from Bombay. On Tuesday the Virginia, Caesar, King of the East and Pathfinder were destroyed between the Foreland and Boulougne. The latter three were actually lying in French waters, and the most energetic representations have been made by the Government of the Republic. On the same day The Queen of Sheba, Orontes, Diana and Atlanta were de- stroyed near the Needles. Wireless messages have stopped all ingoing cargo ships from coming up Chan- nel, but unfortunately there is evidence that at least two of the enemy’s submarines are in the west. Four cattleships from Dublin to Liverpool were sunk yes- terday evening, while three Bristol-bound steamers were blown up in the neighborhood of Lundy Island, y “However vexatious these incidents may be, we may 3 console ourselves by the reflection that since a sub- marine cannot keep the sea for more than 10 days with out refitting, and since the base has been captured, there must come a speedy term to these depredations.” } » Another small paragraph was more eloquent: . v “The price of wheat,” it said, “which stood at 3f__ shillings a week before the declaration of war, was quoted yesterday on the Baltic at 52. Maize has gone from 21 to 37.” “Good, my lads!” said I when I read it to the crew. “I can assure you that those few lines will prove to . mean more than the whole page about the fal] of { Blankenberg.

BRECKINRIDGE, Assistant Secretary of War, was quoted in a re- cent London newspaper as saying that a well-equipped army of 200,000 men, such as are fighting in Europe, could march across the United States if suc- : cessfully landed. While American army officers laugh at the suggestion, it has opened up an interesting field of speculation as to what would hap- pen to our large cities if the United States were in- vaded. Because of its situation on the Mississippi River, St. Louis. would have to be occupied before any srogram of extensive conquest could be approximately ‘ealized. Of course the prospect of invasion of the Jnited States by a foreign ! Naturally any such movement would have as its primary objective the occupation of St. Louis. This city is important not only betause of its wealth, but because of the enormous stores of war material here and because of its strategic situation at the intersec- tion of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. The army officer above referred. to outlined some of the things that would be necessary for the defense of St. Louis, Unfortified as it is, St. Louis would require, the officer thinks, a defending army of upwards of 200,000 men, considerably more than double the present entire strength of the United States army. Such a force, he believes, could repulse an attack from the east, no matter how 'arge the onnosing force, if the attack were —_ eo need only to post such weapons as the great German siege guns on the hills southeast of East St. Louis to reduce the business section of St. Louis to matchwood* in a few hours. To protect.the city from such a bom- bardment it would be vitally necessary to hold those hills against all the efforts of the enemy. To hold them would be a dangerous and difficult task for troops in the field, for if they were defeated and compelled to fall back, they would have the big river behind them and might be terribly punished before they could cross it to the safety of the entrenchments. According to the army officer, if the enemy fired only shrapnel shells at the big downtown buildings of. the city, they would be riddled and those of steel con- struction would not be note as to be scarcely ,orth considering. Before in army could be. trays- yorted acrors either ocean; it would: beeqgme neces- sary to destroy. the American navy in its en- tirety. . This would ~ be necessary because if only ene or .two battleships rere left and couid get within striking distance of the -great fleet/ of trans- certs necessary to carry ‘he hostile forces, more lamage could be inflicted’ m the enemy in a few 10urs than might result rom a long campaien. To destroy the American yavy outright would be onsiderable of an under- aking. To do it within a ‘ear would require such mit overwhelming pre- yonderance of force as sould only come from an alliance of several great 2owers, assuming that the 2owers will come out of he present conflict with jomething like their ex- sting maritime forces. While this was being done the American ,Gov- ernment would be putting Army officers say the United States would not again be caught nap- ping, as it was in the Spanish- War, when the clumsy efforts to manu- acture a big army within few months caused many contemptuous shrug from military experts abroad. The American war col- lege not only has worked out innumerable plans of campaign, covering almost eny conceivable emergency, but has accumulated in accessible depots the nec- essary supplies for a great host of soldiers. Even if Mr. Breckin- ridge’s hypothetical land- ing of 200,000 foreign sol- diers, thoroughly equipped, could be effected within the first few. weeks of a war, it is extremely doubt- ful that it would get any great distance on _ its march from the Atlantic to the Pacific. A Unfted £tates army officer, who is 2 close student of military luatters, pointed out some o¢ the oostacles. He made it clear that even if this force should crush all the’ 80,000 or 90,000 regular soldiers who could be sent against. it immediately, it would still face a campaign that would make the march of Cyrus and his 10,000 Greeks a puny effort in comparison. It would be harassed night and day in it guerilla warfare, it would be isolated in a hostile country, cut off from its bases of sup- plies and worn down until a sufficient force of volun- teer soldiers could be put into the field to annihilate it by sheer weight. According to this same officer, if more than double that force of invaders could get a foothold on the lacific coast, the American army could abandon the coast cities, fall back on Sacramento, Cal., as head- cuarters and by holding three or four mountain passes tetween the Canadian border and the Mexican border _tndefinitely. keep the enemy from advancing. If an invading force could force its way across the western coast ranges, the Rocky Mountains and the great plains, or if it could“sweep the Atlantic sea- toard, penetrate the Appalachian Mountains and drive its way through the populous eastern states, it would still come to an almost impassable barrier when it Before it could pass the Mis- sissippi@it would have to estsblish an enormous pre- vonderance of men and mats ‘ial over the defenders. PAGE SIX. “If,” said the ord- nance expert, “shells from a huge ‘brummer’ should hit one of these big build- ings at-a place where steel girders joined would bring the whole — tumbling. delivered from the front. It would be necessary to dig entrenchments from somewhere south of Jefferson barracks clear to the mouth of the Missouri and man them with infantry and artillery. The bridges could then be wrecked ‘and it would be necessary for the enemy to cross in boats. Because of its great width and the speed of its current, it would be. virtually impossible to construct a ponteon bridge in the face of fire that would be adequate for bringing across the river-any considerable force. Before the enemy could cross the river it would have to ac- complish some flanking operation, probably going far to the north or south of the city. To accomplish this successfuly it would need a great preponderance in numbers. ~ What, however, would happen to St. Louis if the town were subjected to such a bombardment as re- duced the forts at Antwerp would be appalling to con- template. According to the officer, the enemy would Ny pee £ destroyed. HNe__ithinks, however, that if a shell from a- huge “brummer” or “busy Bertha” should hit one of these big build- ings at a place where the steel girders joined, it would. bring the whole structure tumbling into a mass of ruins. From the East St. Louis hills it vould be child’s play for an expert gunner to hit the Railway Exchange Building, or any of the other big downtown build- ings. An architect and a structural engineer’ - were asked what they thought would be the effect of heavy artillery fire upon the big steel-girder office Luildings. Both of them inclined to think that, ~while the damage would be’ great, it would take more shots to raze one of the modern build- ings than it would a structure of solid masonry. They pointed out that if a shell were to fall on the roof of the Railway Exchange Building it might drop through a floor or two before it exploded. . The great power of an ex- plosion is derived from the impact on the cushion of air. The air is thrust outward in every direc- tion. Naturally it would seek the point of least re- sistance. The result would be that it would_smash out the windows and all the thin partitions adjacent but would have little ef- fect upon the steel skele- ton of the building. According to the archi- tect and the engineer, between 50 and 100 shells would be required to de- molish the Railway Ex- change Building entirely and each of them would have to strike a vital point on a steel column. Looking from above straight down the build- ing might be conceived as built in sections. Each section would be in the form of a square, with three vertical columns in each side of the square. If a shell struck the vtolumn at the exact cen- ter of the square, it might cause it to give way. The section of the building embraced within the square would collapse. : Both of the architectural authorities agreed that the damage trom a shell exploding within a building: of solid walls would be immeasurable. 9 It has beehi estimated that a thickness of 30 Teet of solid concrete is necessary to stop the largest German shells. The explosion would cause a solid wall to bulge outward and the whole house to collapse. ‘The largest known guns available for use on land will shoot from seven to nine miles. Little is actually known about the range of the new German 12-inch guna, ‘but it is supposed that they can shoot much farther. Some of the largest naval guns are said to be powerful enough to carry effectively 16 mileg- If nine-mile guns were placed on the hills at Edge- mont, the nearest point the East Side bluffs are to the business section, they could throw shells out about as far as Jefferson’ avenue and Olive street. M : could be placed back of the Edgemont bluffs and easily Crop shells into the downtown district. If the new German guns are as powerful as they are rumored to be, one of them could be located in the Courthouse square of Belleville and drop shells on the Post-Dispatch building. It is not at all necessary for modern gunners to see the target, which they can hit just as easily from behind high hills as if the range were unobstructed. SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

Candidate for Missouri Governor | Poland Former. 1d Has Best Title to Be King of Russia’s promise to restore. partitioned nation revives pretensions of Col. John-Sobieski, sixth in descent from Poland’s national hero, King John Sobieski we But he de- ‘clares American citizenship more precious than any Kingship in one 3... HOULD one result of the war (as has been promised by Czar _ Nicholas in case the allies are victorious) be the re-establish- ment of the ancient kingdom of Poland, then no living man would have a better claim to the rehabilitated: throne than a romantic American citizen, who was once a candidate for Governor of Missouri—a man who bears the magic name of Poland’s greatest King and the hero of all Christendom in the seventeenth century—John Sobieski, known in history as King John III. | Col. John: Sobieski, now residing in Los Angeles, Cal., is sixth in descent, through the direct male line of oldest sons of oldest sons, from the great warrior monarch who, on Sept. 12, 1863, removed “the pagan yoke from Europe’s shoulders” by charging in person at the head of the fiery Polish cavalry against the Turks, under the walls of Vienna, when the capital, abandoned by Emperor Leopold, was at the point of surrender. The proffer of a scepter to Col. Sobieski would be merely a fitting climax to his stirring life story, one of the most remarkable odysseys adventured by any man existing today. How this scion of. a resplendent historic name became an exile in infancy, and in turn a stowaway, a soldier of fortune under two flags, a poli- tician and a man of letters; and how, in Mexico, he was able to take terrible vengeance for the wrougs inflicted upon his nation by Austria—these episodes constitute an epic of heroic proportions. John Sobieski was born at Warsaw Sept. 10, 1842, 72 years ago. At that time all that remained of the former great Polish mon- archy was the minute Republic of Cracow. All the rest of the unhappy country had been partitioned between Russia, Prussia and Austria. But the little republic was the center of a patriotic propaganda throughout Poland. The French revolution of 1848, which drove Louis Philippe from his throne and placed Louis Napoleon in power as President of France, convulsed all Europe. The partitioning nations chose this moment to trample out the last spark of liberty in Poland and suppressed the Republic of Cra- cow.

In 1852 he made a declaration under oath of his intention to become an American citizen, at the same time renounc- ing all allegiance to any foreign Power. A year later he went to Turkey on business, and at Smyrna was seized, dragged by force on board the Austrian brig-of- war Huszar and confined there {n irons. In the harbor were three Austrian men of war of 150 guns. It happened that there was also in port the little American sloop of war St. Louis, which could muster but 22 guns, But its captain was Duncan Nathaniel Ingra- ham, who. had served on the Bon Homme Richard under John Paul Jones. Having been trained in so heroic a naval school, Capt. Ingraham laid his sloop alongside the big Huszar, on July 2, 1853, and declared that if Koszta were not surrendered in three hours he would epen fire. The Austrians were so astounded by the American's audacity that they agreed to release Koszta in custody of the French Consul-General at Smyrna until an agree- ment could be reached. The Austrian Government de- that “satisfaction pro- portionate to the outrage” be tendered to Austria. Sec- retary of State Marcy replied with a ringing declara- tion to the effect that Koszta, although not fully naturalized, had by his declared intention of becoming a citizen been invested with the nationality “of the United States. Austria, rather than go to war with the United States, yielded, and Koszta was released The incident became known in history as the Koszta affair. The name of Capt. Ingraham; hero of this memorable exploit, rang through Europe. So, when it was an- nounced that he was about to anchor off Genoa in the St. Louis there was great enthusiasm among the exiles who had reason to hate Austria. Countess Sobieski or- ganized a demonstration in honor of the naval officer of the young republic across the seas who had dared, sin- gle-handed, to defy the empire. At her direction the horses were removed from the hero's carriage and it was dragged to his hotel by po- litical exiles, all of them noblemen. One of the excited spectators was the ll-year-old son of the Countess. But Austria was then master of Northern Italy, and Maximilian, brother of the Austrian Emperor. was ington’s birth- day, 1855.. His one accomplish- ment, as Col. Sobieski now relates, was blowing a bugle. So Capt. Crav- ens obtained for him an appoint- ment as bueler in the United States army, in which he served 10 yerrs. In the sixth year .of hs service and in his. nineteenth year, the Civ? War began. &> (Continued gv

Winifred had lost the hand of the range, and what successes she had were | ruined by her inability to corral the herd on time. The soup was salted beyond the sanction of even the most amiable palate. The chickens were guaranteed not to be resurrections from a cold-storage tomb; but they would have been the better for a little longer hanging and a little shorter cooking. The vegetables had not been salt- ed at all, nor warmed quite through. “I’ve survived the fireless and foodless cooking at | breakfast and luncheon,” said Murray Ten Eyck, “but the dinnerless dinner would finish me. Winifred can afford to bant, I can’t. I’m going to give a party.

Eventually, however, the sun, which had begun the day with such ecstasy for him, began to approach the top of the western hill, and the caravan set out for the Port of Missing Men, which proved to be a little cottage of an inn set upon the edge of a small mountain and sur- veying a vast panorama. On the piazza the crowd dined well and returned through the great park to the homeward roads,- for when they reached the Enslee bridge it was like coming home. The wings of the motor had made it possible for them to run 25 miles to dinner and 25 miles back in almost negligible time; but the exultant speed of the journey and the multitude of sights that had fled past fatigued the mind like a long voyage, and it was once more a subdued company that gathered before the living- room fireplace. Silence fell upon them all, and they sat once more staring into the fiames, each finding there the glittering castles of desire. At some vaguely later hour Persis rose and went into the adjoining music room. Forbes longed to follow, but feared to move. She strummed a few inexpert chords on the piano. Then she went to the victrola and searched among the black disks. A little later she called out: “Everything in this house is last year’s. There’s not a turkey trot on the place, or a tango.” A little later she spoke again: ‘“‘Here’s a bit of ancient history.” She cranked up the machine, set the needle to the disk, and “The Beautiful Blue Danube” came twanging forth from a scarred record that riddled the melody with curious spatterings. The once world-victorious rhapsody had almost a dirge- like tameness now; but it brought Willie to his feet, and he began to circle the room with Persis. She drooped over his inferior shoulders like a wilted flower. Other waltzes were played, but Willie’s appetite for them was quenched after the first. He sank into a chair by the living-room table and took up a story in an old magazine. Persis waltzed with Forbes more often than the others; but Willie never knew. In fact, it was not long before his head grew heavier and heavier, and finally, with his chin on his necktie, he slept. The dancing, the copious wine and the sudden warmth of the weather soon led tc the opening of doors. From the music room one stepped out into a kind of cloister opening on the lawn: Eventually Persis set a two-step record whirling on the machine. Forbes asked her to dance with him. As they were passing one of the doors a little gust of sum- mer-night air blew upon them so appealingly that Forbes swung Persis across the: sill and stepped out into the cloister, where the moonlight streamed like a distant searchlight. The music followed them, but muffled by the pat of their feet along the tiled floor. To silence this noise Forbes danced across the margin of stone out upon the smooth, short, silent grass. Persis made no resistance and he danced always a little deeper into the lawn, a little farther from the house. He danced her round the inky plumes of a cluster of cedars. These shut out the lights from the door. music was quite lost here, and Persis hummed the tune herself; seemed to croon it into his very heart. The moonlight fell about her in a magic veil, and Forbes could not let her go. He caught her closer to him. But before his lips could brush her cheek, she broke his clasp and said: “We must go back.” “Oh please!” he implored. “The others will wonder.” “ “What of it?” “We can’t afford to set them talking.” “We can’t afford to waste a night like this in a stuffy room.” °* “There will be other moonlight nights.” “But we may not be. alive, It may rain tomorrow. And the day after I must be getting back to my post.” “Really? Oh, that is too bad!" There was such deep regret in her words that he took courage to say: “If we could only walk together a long, long distance! Doesn't. the moon seem to—-to command you to march?” Illustrated by James - her. hat Will People Say ? BY RUPERT HUGHES Copyright, 1914, by the Post-Dispatch. SYNOPSIS. IEUT. FORBES, U. 8. A., back from the Phil- ippines, sees New York after many years’ absence and it goes to his head. He follows, by means of a Fifth avenue bus, a motor car con- taining a lady who fascinates him, although he does not see her face. That night at a theater Murray Ten Eyck introduces him to Persis Cabot and he learns she is the lady he followed. Her party adopt him and teach him to tango. In 24 hours he is deeply in love with Persis; who seems to be engaged to Willie Enslee, principally because Willie is rich and the elder Cabot is losing his footing in Wall street. In order to lunch with Persis, Forbes is compelled to ask Mrs. Neff to make up a party for the Ritz. Willie Enslee de- sides to go to his place in the country and, al- though there are no servants there, Persis, Forbes and all the others.go with him, a thoroughly un- conventional house party. ee en ~te nme = “ ee = “You could change them.” “And what would the others say?” “Must they know?” “How could they help knowing?” “If you told them all good-night and dak to your room and changed your slippers, and came out later, and I met you” —— It’ was a very elaborate conspiracy for him, and she gasped: “Do you think I am quite mad?” « “I know I am, or it seems that I’ll go mad unless I ‘can be with you in this wonderful light.” “It is wonderful, but—even if I were crazy enough to sale as you say you would spoil it all—you wouldn’t be F4 Nad “Oh, yes I would. I promise.” “Solemnly ?” “I solemnly promise that I will not annoy you. I will not presume to-+to kiss you unless you ask me to.” “That ought to be safe enough,” she laughed. “Well, I'll think it over. And now we really must get back. Alice and Murray are at the door looking this way.” They returned slowly to the cloister, discussing the beauty of the night and the brilliance of the moon. Persis told on herself; confessed that she had been fool- ish enough to dance on the grass, and her shoes and stockings were drenched. Willie, who. was partially awake, supplied the neces- sary excuse for absence. He demanded that she change at once and not risk pneumonia. “If I’m sent to my room I won’t come back,” said Persis, and yawned convincingly. This set up a con- tagion-of yawns. Everybody was instantly smitten with sleepiness. There was some flurry over the nightcap drinks, and a leisurely exit of all except Persis, who left immedi- ately. When the rest went up to their rooms, Forbes went to his. He waited with frantic impatience for the light to go out in Ten Eyck’s room. It was nearly midnight when Forbes felt it safe to venture out into the hall and tiptoe downstairs. He had just arrived there when Persis stole down and met him. They did not venture even to whisper. He took her arm and groped with his free hand through a black tunnel to a blaeker door, which opened stealthily and admitted a flood of moon- light. They did not wade out into the midsea of the lawn. He remembered Persis’ dictum that behind the blinds there are always eyes. Like snickering truants they skirted the balustrade, the shadowy privet hedge, the masses of juniper and bay and box, till they reached a point where the winding stairway dropped down between its high brick walls. The shadows were doubly dense here, and Persis hung back, but Forbes laughed at her for a poltroon, and she refused to take the dare. He was so afraid that she might fall that he finally suggested: “If you are afraid of stumbling here, I—I’m not for- getting my promise; but I just wanted to say that I— I don’t mind holding on to you, if you want to ask me to.” She declined with whispered thanks. Down, down the walk drifted. At length they heard a murmur—the mys- teriously musical noise of a fountain. They rounded a few more curves and came upon a niched Cupid riding a dolphin, from whose mouth an arc of pure water poured » with a sound of chuckling laughter. They stood and watched it like children for a long while. Then Forbes urged Persis along to the lowest of the circular levels. There he led her to a bench and dropped down beside They both looked into the huge caldron of the hills, filled with moonlight as with a mist. _ Persis and Forbes sat worshiping like Parsees of the ‘ moon, in awesome silence, till Forbes could no longer hush the clamor in his heart. “Miss Cabot,” he said, “I promised not to annoy you. Would it annoy you if I told you that—that I love you with all my heart and soul and being?” “How could you love me?” she answered, softly, hop- ing to be contradicted. ‘You've known me only a few da Siac ancien atonal eis atte: ten een eal never like nor understand; others we know and love the moment our eyes meet.” Montgomery Flagg. OVER. THE BOUNDARY WALL “And did you love me the moment our eyes met?” - “Long before that. I loved the back of your hat and one shoulder.” “Do you tell everybody you meet the same thing? It’s rather a stale question to ask a man, but you do seem rather impulsive on so short an acquaintance.” “Short acquaintance? We've seen each other more than most people see @ each other in six months. I know that I shall never be happy unless I can be trying to make you happy.” “I am very happy just now,” she murmured. “But we can’t sit here forever, ani we can’t even be together for more than a day or two. I want you for my own. I don’t want to see you only—only on—Mr. Ens- lee’s property.” “Which reminds me,” Persis said, with a tone of dis- pelled romance, ‘“‘that we are still on Mr. Buslee’s prop- erty, and it doesn’t seem fair to him.” “Then let’s leave Mr. Enslee’s property.” “How? In an airship?’ “See\ that wall down there? That is one of the boundary lines. If we were over that I could tell you 1 some things that I’ve got to tell you.” “It’s an awfully long way.” “It’s not far. Let’s walk to keep warm. You are cold, aren’t you?’ “Frozen, that’s all. Well, come along, I’ll go part way with you.” Constantly pausing to turn back, but finding it easier to drift on down than begin the upward climb, Persis went on and on, arm in arm with Forbes. By and by they reached the boundary wall. He helped her to set one knee upon it and mount awkwardly. He clambercd up and sat down at her side. Their backs were tuward the Enslee demesne, their feet in the unknown. And there, without delay, Forbes told her that she must be his wife, told her that he loved her as woman had never been loved before. His harids fought to caress her, his lips tingled to he again at her cheek, but he kept his promise. “Couldn’t you possibly love me, Miss Cabot? Couldn't you possibly?” he pleaded; and she whispered, with a sad sweetness: “I could—all too easily, Mr. Forbes, but I am afraid to love. I thought I never should love anybody really. And now that I know I might, it’s so terrible an awak- ening that I—I’m afraid of it.” “Don’t be afraid,” he implored. “Love me. Let you self love me.” a “I’m afraid, Mr. Forbes.” “Then if you’re afraid to love, it’s because you don’t, because you—can’t.”’ This hurt her pride. Her heart was so swollen with this new power that it would not be denied either by herself or him. “Yes, I could! Oh, I could! But I mustn’t—I mustn’t let myself love you—now now—not so soon.” “Then I must wait,” he sighed, and said no more. And she sat in silence, though there was a great noise of heartbeats in her breast and in her temples and ears. She began to shiver with the night and with her ex- ctement. She wanted to say they must start back; but he. “gue stumbled thickly against her chattering teeth. The w. *. was bitter cold—so far from him. In his arms would be warmth and comfort as at a fireplace. She was lonely, unendurably lonely and wistful. Finally he took his eyes from the moon and bent his gaze on her. He saw how her shoulders quaked. “You’re cold, you poor, sweet child—you're cold. I’m dying to take you in my arms, but I promised—I prom- ised. She was afraid to surrender, and afraid to defy the will of the night. The chill shook her with violence again and again till she felt the world rocking, the stone wall Serene: Then she leaned toward him and whis- pered: “Kiss me!” He could hardly believe that he heard, but he caugut her to him and sought her lips with his. Immediately, she was afraid again. Again she hid the preciousness of her mouth from him, writhed and struggled and twisted her face, hid it in his breast. But now he fought her with gentle ruthlessness, took her cold cheeks in his cold hands, and, holding her face up to the moon- light, kissed her eyes, and her dew-bespent hair and her cheeks, and pressed the first great kiss on her lips. They fled from him no more. Only a moment she lingered in Elysium, and then she sighed: “We must ge back—we must! I hate to, but there’s tomorrow—and the people! What wouldn’t they think if they saw us?” He knew that they would not think the beautiful and holy thoughts that filled his heart and hers, and he consented to climb back from this lowly heaven to the upper purgatory. So Persis and Forbes climbed slowly the winding stairway, and their mood was one of hallowed reverence for God and His beautiful world. They skirted the balustrade with a guilty rapture, avoiding the almost daylight of the moon-swept lawn. They opened the door with the innocent stealth of good fairies. The mounted the stairway with their arms about each other’s bodies, and in the hall above they kissed and whispered, “Good-night! Good-night! Good-night!* and tiptoed in opposite directions, At their remote doors they paused to throw kisses inte the black dark toward each other’s invisible presences, Forbes turned the knob of his door with fierce cay. hers. There wag kiss. He tip-

JAMES” WGI Facc. And Forbes’ heart gdlloped in his breast as he won- dered if he should ever see her alive again. He had felt this same fear for her that first day on the avenue, when her motor shot forward so wildly. He was always feeling afraid for her. The moter passengers were in no haste to be gone, and they loitered, watching the mad riders on their breakneck de -ent, now hidden, now revealed again by a swerve in the road, a jut of hillside or a group of trees. Enslee had sent his own driver and his own car to take them to the club, and with an unusual thoughtful- ness had ordered the robe rack filled with lilacs. And so they rode behind a screen of purple beauty, and breathed in a spicy air filtered through flowers. The car reached its destination without encountering Persis or Willie. The clubhouse was a pile of creamy brick, tall and spacious as a hotel. The servants were in livery, some of them already in summer white, with dark collars and lapels—“to distinguish them from the members,” said Ten Eyck. \ ' ‘ ’ . Ten Eyek and Winifred offered Forbes a racquet in. their tennis game, but he preferred to be alone with his loneliness. He accepted Ten Eyck’s suggestion, how- ever, that he might care to go round the links, and Ten Eyck procured him a bag of clubs and a caddy, promising him ample time for at least nine holes before Persis could arrive. With the usual luck of beginners and re-beginners at a game, Forbes did his best work at the start. His first drive from the first tee drew such a white arc across the sky that even the caddy was moved to an exclamation of applause, hitched his sack on his shoulder and set off in search of the ball with vicarious pride. As he worked his way up a steep ridge green and vast as the back of a tidal wave, he saw at the top of the height a bunker thrusting out into the sky like the comb on top of a Spanish woman's head. He paused for his approach, to let two women clear the way. He rec- ognized Mrs. Neff and Alice, but they did not see him. Mrs. Neff seemed to be in a mood of displeasure. There was vexation in her very heels. Thinking the pathway clear, Forbes mumbled “Fore” and, picking the ball up neatly in his iron, sent it over the edge of the bunker with a hurdler’s economy of gap. And just as it escaped the top a head arose, followed by a pair of shoulders. Forbes shriered an ex post facto “Fore!” but # was drowned in the snort of pain and rage from the man, whose shoulder blade stopped the ball. As Forbes ran forward with abject apologies a glaring face peered over the bunker and roared out: “Damn it, man! Where do you think you-— Why, it’s you! Harvey, my boy!” “Senator Tait!” Forbes cried, darting for one corner of the bunker as Senator Tait dashed for the other. They paused, turned back, and made for the opposite ends, stopped short foolishly in the middle, and laughingly clasped hands over the ledge. “I'll come round,” said Forbes; and the Senator me‘ him, put his arms about him, and hugged him with a fatherly roughness. After he had told Forbes how much he had grown and how fine he was, and Forbes had ex- claimed how young the Senator looked, the Senator hugged him again. “I can't believe that you are yourself. The first time I saw you was in your father’s arms; you were abont half an hour old, and your father said you were very handsome. I couldn't see it at the time, but you've in- proved I wist Fre could see you now. I was with him, you know, wher. bi borse fel] with him and”-—— “Yes, I know,” Forbes murmured. “You were bis best friend—our bes: friend.” 1 i ” \ \ any “It’s a shame that we've lost sight of each other. W* mustn’t any more. Life’s too short to waste in not see ing people we love. I must say, though, I’m rathe hurt at your not looking me up before. Mrs. Neff has just told me you’ve been in town nearly a week.” “I—I’ve been very busy,” Forbes stammered. “So I hear, you young scoundrel!” Tait growled jovially. “You're at the heartbreaking, heartaching age, and no time to spend on old duffers like me when young beauties are drooping on every bough. But what's this Mrs. Neff tells me about your being rich? I hadn’t heard it. I hadn’t expected it, either, for your father was a better fox hunter than a financier. What did you do—invent some new explosive—or a new gun?” Forbes smiled bitterly and explained the foolish mis- take, too foolish to correct at first, and later_embar- rassing. ; The Senator stared at him a moment searchingly, with a tender inquisition, then said: “Unless you’re golf hungry, let’s send the caddies bac and have a talk.” “By all means,” Forbes agreed: and even as he cast his glance about in search of his caddy he looked farthe to see if Persis were not visible somewhere from this Pisgah height. He was fond of the old man, but he’ loved the young woman. ~~ Forbes’ caddy was standing by the ball, and came in with it, cannily claimed his pay and tip for the full course, and hurried back with the Senator’s caddy to pick up other fares. They took both the golf bags with them to put away. Tait and Forbes strolled aside from the traffie of the golf course and found a quiet seat in the shade. “And now tell me,” the Senator said. “Did you see my daughter Mildred at the clubhouse?” “No, I don’t think so. I don’t suppose I'd know her. She was a little tike in short skirts when I saw her last.” “She’s a big woman now—regular old maid—fanatic on charities—fine mind—great heart. Good Lord, Harvey, what that child *"nows! Her mother to her dying day never heard of half the things that young spinster dis- cusses, and has never had a flirtation so far as I know. But she’s wonderful, Harvey. I’m afraid of her, but i do admire: and love her. Women like her make these mad tango trotters look pretty cheap.” Forbes resented the unintended criticism on the won- ~ derful soul the tango mania had enabled him to meet and know so well so soon. He murmured something formulaic about his eagerness to see Mildred, and then he added, with a little hint of raillery: “You congratulated me on my wealth. Am I to con- gratulate you the same way, for your success with little Miss Neff?” The Senator stared at him. Miss Neff? What do you mean? Alice?” “Yes.” “What success should I have with her?’ | Forbes was confused, and tried to back out, but Tait would know, and Forbes at last explained: “Alice says that her mother is trying to marry her off to you.” Tait’s eyes popped, and his mouth gaped stupidly, then he swore with sonority, and blurted out: “Do you mean that that old haridan of a Cornelia Neff has gone mad enough to—Why, Alice is younger than Mildred! Well... I'l! be double—— Is Alice in on the game, too?” “Oh, no; Alice is crazy to marry Stowe Webb.” “Poor old Jim Webb’s boy, eh?” Forbes nodded. “Weil, why doesn’t she?” “He has no money.” “Oh, she’s one of those.” “He hasn’t even a job.” ms, The Senator puffed like an unmufflered cut-out, and. be frowned like a pirate, then he began to chuckle in the manner of a pirate ordering the plank put over the side. “He hasn't a job. eh? Well. I'll cet him one. Pll 12 that old lady in her own coin Ma*e a foo) on* oF * “My success with little Who's little Miss Neff? . "sel ZIXE- -ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH —see

Kesteven, in command of the Cus- tom House at Southampton, is perfectly en- raged over the whole affair.” “H’-m-m!” said Cleek. “It isn’t another case of a barking dog and the burglar’s friend, I suppose?” “Well, we must wait and see. Meanwhile, ‘as it sometimes happens that the fool knows the least and sees the most, we had better aA and trap them in a _ scuttled vessel putting out to sea. Ailsa Lorne is the rescuing angel,.and Cleek’s spectacular hand- cuffing of an “honest” Breton skipper proves no error, after all. R. NARKOM entered his private office at Scotland Yard and dropped into his chair with a sigh of satisfaction. For the first time that week his re- port sheet was clear. Good! He had scotched that gang of smugglers at last. Now he would be freed from the reproaches of his colleagues and the sneering smiles ef his subordinates, as every fresh case had been brought home tc his notice. Gad! he’d just like them to be in Lis place for a week, and see whether they could stop nilimited cargoes of saccharine being passed through the customs house absolutely free from duty, and dis- covery only being made when it was too late, through tee channels of the secret service spies and the political underworld. The oncoming of footsteps outside caused him no cualms of doubt. i “Well, Petrie!” he said blamdly to the detective ser- geant who stood with bared head in front of him. “Yes, sir. There’s another case got through some- how,” gave back Petrie with just the suspicion of a change in his imperturbable countenance. “Another case! Good heavens, man, it’s impossible! [very boat and passenger has been searched—by my own men.” “Yes, sir,” said Petrie, patiently; “but it’s true, sir. lfir. Ketseven at the customs says the source of informa> ien is an umim—um’’—— “Unimpeachable one,” rapped out the Superintendent irritably. “Yes, sir. That’s the sixth case this week. Someone's making a pretty good thing out of it. Saceharine’s fetching a fair price just now, but if this goes on”—— “Goes on!” Mr. Narkom drummed his fists impatiently en the arms of his revolving chair. “Goes on! If it ¢oes, I shall.” Detective Petrie gave a little dry cough, then finally, ta*ing his courage in both hands, spoke out. “There's onl¥ one man as can get to the bottom of it. sir, and that’s Mr. Cleek.” “Oh, I know that,” flung out Narkom, frowning hard- _ “But the devil of it is, he’s not in town— | cr than ever. laven’t seen or heard of him for more than a month.

Oh, my dear chap, I never was so glad to hear you back in my life.” A T that particular moment the telephone be!) “Gad! it’s himself.

Good-by.” And that was how it c}me to pass that half an hour later, Mr. Maverick }’arkom, restored to his old debon- naire self, after a brief interlude with Lennard, sallied forth from Scotland Yard, where, drawn up to the curb, the very latest thing in limousines awaited him. A crowd of boys had collected idly around the en- traitce to the yard, and in the midst of the crowd, ragged ant dirty, was a little Parisian gamin, his sallow face a °\~ with curiosity. | ‘Charing Cross Station, Lennard, as fast as you can etreak it. Must catch the 11 o’clock boat train,” shouted Mr. Narkom as he jumped into the limousine. “And Leep a sharp lookout for Mr. Cleek at Villiers street; he'll be disguised as an old road sweeper.” “Very well, sir,” said Lennard. “Crickety! ‘only three x ‘nutes!” he said, as he wrenched the car around and ‘tt her go. Yet he was not so quick as the little French urchin, Tho was scudding along the Embankment as if the toms of the law were already after him. Fate was evidently against Lennard that morning, {. the shape of another cer, obviously of foreign make gd driven by a French chauffeur, who seemed bent on g.t'ng in his way. 't was just under the arch approaching Villiers street Bs that the accident happened.

E spoke as he fell, muttered something, gave a little writhing twist of the body—and was still, lying like a dead thing, even as Mr. Narkom, with a hurried exclamation of dismay, jumped from the limousine and went pelting toward him; while a policeman on point duty, receiving a sign from his chief, hurried off and waved back the fast-approaching crowd. But Lennard was already kneeling beside the still figure, with horror in his face. “He's dead, sir!”’ anid he softly. Then, lifting up his Least ety, Uitte >; "ad a a tot cl."

Meanwhile, the other car had driven rapidly away in the opposite direction. , “Leave it to me,” said Mr. Narkom loudly to the con- stable. “I’ll take him to the hospital in the car.” And, disdaining all assistance save Lennard’s, he lifted the body, with the apron still covering its face, and deposit- ed it gently in the limousine; then slowly and sadly the car was turned around and went wending its way in the direction of Westminster Hospital. Yet, when that hostile crowd had been left far be- hind, and the blinds of the limousine drawn by Mr. Narkom’s hand, a strange thing happened. The “corpse” sat up suddenly, throwing off the leath- ern apron, and looked at the Superintendent with a lit- tle laugh of triumph. “Well played!” said he in Cleek’s voice. “Played, indeed, Mr. Narkom—and Lenrard, too; though I had to remind him with a wink to cover my face up. What's that, dear friend?” i “A&A pretty close shave,” struck in the Superintencert grimly. “Eut it ought to give those Johnnies the ‘push’ f@ a while at least. They drove off like mad things— taken completely in, by James. Directly I spotted that little French rascal on the stéps I knew something was up. That’s why I gave out your disguise!” “A master stroke that!” Cleek said delightedly. “I had to make a sprint for it, though, and I shall be glad of a rest. Not that there’s much chance of that while you’re around. I only rang you up just to let you know I was still uvon this planet, but—who's in trouble this time, dear friend, eh?” “Tt am,” said Mr. Narkom simply. “I wasn't able to tell you over the phéne, but the heads are blaming me— I wonder what the dickens they expect me to do!” “Supposing you tell me the facts,” interposed Cleek ntly. “po a case of continual smuggling. It’s saccharine! That’s the stuff—and it’s coming fn like water—no one knows from where, or how; only that not a cent of duty is being paid.” “Oho!” said Cleek, “The limousine secms to be trav- eling, Mr. Narkom. Wher, the dickens?" ——~ dig up that blithering idiot, ‘George Head- land’ again and see what he-can do in the matter. And if we can’t manage to put a stop to this business and finish it once for all, then my name’s not Hamilton Cleek.”’ e T was getting late in the afternoon when they reached Southampton, but they drove straight down to the Customs Hotise, where Mr. Narkom sent in his offi- cial card, and together with Mr. George Headland waited in the little anteroom. Two minutes later the door was flung open and an elderly gentleman fairly hurled himself upon the Super- intendent, clasping his hand as though it belonged to a long-lost brother. It was Capt. Kesteven, the head of the Customs House—a fine, hale, grav-hair, gray- beard man of about 55 or 60; a man with something of the naval officer in his bearing. Mr. Narkom coughed slightly and waved a hand to- ward Cleek. “This is Mr. George Headland,” said he, smiling a little at the Captain’s look of amazement. ‘“He’s taken the place of Cleek—Hamilton Cleek, you know.” “How long has it been going on?” asked Cleek quiet- ly, tipping his head on one side and leo’ing so stupid that Capt. Kesteven eye! him in unveiled contempt. “Nearly five weeks,” he replied. ‘“‘We have a special number of secret service men making observations, and they reported the cases to me. I have it down here in my official report book.” He plunged over to his desk, returning to the table with a large leather-bound vol- ume. “Here you are. ‘June 8 Case of saccharine got through free—reported. Starchpelt.’ Here you are again. Fifteenth ditto, nineteenth ditto, twenty-fourth ditto”—— Cleek put up\a detaining hand. “Stop. One minute,” said he blandly. ‘There couldn't be any mistake, I suppose? This Starechpelt, as you eall him, is’’—— “One of the finest men in the service!” “Hum! Ah, quite so. And now, what about the boats? What manner of craft are they, and where do they come from?” “Havre, mostly. You see, just now vast quantities of French dairy produce, fruit and vegetables, are be- ing landed, and we had every one searched. Mr. Nar- kom’s own men have been hard at it. Even the crates of vegetables were overturned, and the boats themselves searched from stem to stern , [ tell you, sir, if we don’t get at the bottom of it, all the French vessels will go to Portsmouth. They are grumbling bitterly” “At what?” struck in Cleek. “They don’t like being searched, you mean?” The Captain shook his great head. “No, it’s the delay. Everything depends on their catching the boat trains to London, and all this search- ing takes time’—— “H’mmm! And what boats have you in harbor now?” “Practically none but our own sailing out tomorrow— the great liners, you know—and a few small trading boats from Havre and Brittany. They bring most cf the dairy produce—matke weekly trips, you know I don’t see there’s anything more to tell you.” “Nothing else to do but to look at the boats for our- selves.” said Mr. Narkom, loo*ing over into George Headiand’s dull countenance. 20M the Customs House it took but a few minutes to reach the harbor, which bore a curiously de- serted look. Two or three great liners lay in the docks, while at anchor rode a few French boats, their decks still ccowded with the empty packing cases in which their carg had been carried. “Every ope of these wasiunloaded under police super- vision.” said Capt. Kesteven. “That one is La Chire- floux,” pointing to the nd@arest. Skipper, Marton—as honest as the day. La Rose’—— “Hullo!” interrupted Cleek abruptly, as his eves swept over the various boats. “That's a peculiar looking ob- ject—that black one at the end.” Capt. Kesteven's eyes lit up. “Ah! so Jean Bertillot has come back! That means my wife has returned from her holiday as well. She said she would sai) with Jean. A splendid fellow. That's his boat, La Fleurette Noire, Mr. Headland, sailed and owned by the finest man that ever drew breath and, by heaven! the most unhappy.” Cleek ewitched around suddenly. “Unbanpy?” *e said. “Why should he be unhappy? Or perhaps you don’t know?” “It happens that I do, for I—or, rather, my wife— was the means of making him happy for a few months.” He drew out his cigarette case and offered it to Cleek and Mr. Nar®om, and lighted up himself. “It was this way.” he continued. “He lost his young wife on their wedding trip five years ago. He is a sort of protege of mine, and | have known him since a lad, when he came to and fro on his father’s boat before him. My wife, some years ago, had a desire to have a maid from Brittany. and Jean Bertillot said he would procure her one from his native village, some twenty miles from Havre. He brought us Rose-Marie, a girl as good as gold, industrious and honest to a fault, and we were delighted with her. Well, we did not have her long. Bertillot discovered that she was more nec- essary to him than to us, and married ber forthwith, and we—my wife and I—attended the wedding in Brit- tany.

He is morose and embittered, but faithful—my word! I'd trust my life to Jean Bertillot. Well, when he got to harbor he spent all his profits on painting his boat black—everything is black, inside and out: cabins, decks, sails—as you can see for yourself—a regular raven among doves. And he rechristened her La Fleurette Noire. Very few men, in fact, will work on her; they say it’s so damn- ably gloomy. Well, it’s his own boat and he does what he likes. Ever since that day, however, he has plied to and fro with his butter and eggs; he doesn’t seem to care whether he sells them or not, He’s just broken-hearted.” fs “I’d like to have a’ chat x with him,” said Cleek. a “So you shall, Mr. Head- land,” said the Captain, nodding, with perhaps just a little tinge of ironv in his voice. “Perhaps he'll be able to give you some ideas”—— Cleek followed the Cap- tain down to the little quay, where La Fileurette Noire had anchored. LITTLE crowd of gesticulating, chat- ' tering Breton sailors was on the deck— ‘amidst them just a patch of white: a woman's dress —and at the sight of its wearer Cleek gave a cry of delight and rushed off at headlong speed, leaving Mr. Narkom to explain to a justly aggrieved customs officer that this was one of the latest methods of de- tecting. But Cleek cared nothing for customs or smugglers just then, for here was Ailsa Lorne—Ailsa, who had vanished from the _river- side cottage, leaving but a brief note to “allay any anxiety’—and what a week of intolerable torture it had been, only Cleek, and per- haps the youthful Dollops, could have told. “A stroke of sheer luck this—or am I dreaming?” he said softly, with a little laugh of pure rapture. “Aisla, is it you, my dear, my dear!” “It is indeed,” she made answer with a quick smile. “But surely you got my letter? It should have ar- rived today.” “For which Mr. Narkom is. to be blamed!” cried Cleek. “Never mind!” said she softly. looking up into his face with shin- ing eyes. “I am rather glad you did Somehow, the crossing on that boat has got on my nerves. My old Breton nurse Jeannette, wrote to me that she was very ill, so I could not help but go to her; and, not wanting to wait for the other boat, I crossed on this one, with Mrs. Kesteven. But”—she gave a lit- tle shiver—‘“it’s full of mystery.” ‘“‘Mystery? What do you mean by that, I wonder?” They had crossed to the ehd of the quay, and Ailsa gave a little nervous look over her shoulder before she answered him. “It is only-just a fancy, I expect, on my part. The blackness of everything got on my nerves—but I fan- cied I heard all kinds of queer sounds—unexpected sounds during the night. I slept on board last evening, so as to be sure and get the boat train; but it was so hot and stuffy in the cabin that I threw a cloak around me and went out on deck.. It was then I saw”— - “Saw what?” “Tt sounds so silly,” she said apologetically, “Dut I saw a match strike itself on a box, I know you'll think I am mad, but I saw the yellow match box and the white match. I even heard the scratching sounds it makes whe@ it ignites—yet there was no one there! | don’t think I was ever so frightened in my life.” “Where did you see thé match box?” asked Cleek, quietly, watching her face. “Just inside the cabin next to -mine. Rose-Marie’s cabin, they call it, and the crew swear that it is haunt- ed. The deck lies just beside the cabins on these boats; in fact, the deck and the cabins are all on one floor, and there are big windows on either side of them to let in the light. It was through one of these I saw—Hush!” She stopped short as the Superintendent, together with Capt. Kesteven and a tall, pale-looking woman with faded hair approached and lifted a warning finger “Don’t say-a word. They are both so fond of Jean Ber- tillot. I’ve known Capt. Kesteven for years, you know, and I wouldn’t hurt their feelings for worlds, just for my own foolish imagining.” Cleek nodded silently and, joining the others, the ae 3 whole party drove to the Captain’s house, at the Cap- tain’s own suggestion, for tea and a wash-up after their journey. There was time enough to see over the boats tomorrow morning; tonight he insisted that they must rest. “Jean doesn’t unload till the morning,” said Mrs. Kes- teven, as they drove away. “He told me he was in no hurry.” “I’ve put a man on guard,” said the Captain. “No one will be allowed to set foot in the town or leave it till I’m on duty tomerrow.

Go downstairs, like a friend, and entertain these people for me. Do anything, say anything, but just let me alone!” . And Mr. Narkom, suppressing his curiosity with a slightly disappointed air, promptly went out of the room, and left Cleek to his own resources. It. was barely 6 o’clock on the following morning when Cleek and Mr. Narkom found themselves once more on the quay, looking out for Capt. Kesteven. * “Barly birds,” said that gentleman as soon as he caught sight of them. “Going to take a turn at help- ing} Jean unload, eh?” P SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST, LOUIS POST-DiSPATCH —NUVEMBER 4, 1914, “Yes, that’s it,” said Cleek serenely. “I'd like to have a look at his boat. You never can tell’—— “Preposterous nonsense!” The Captain shrugged his shoulders scornfully. ‘“You’re barking up the wrong tree, I can tell you. Still, come along. Boat ahoy!” he shouted; and in a minute or so a sleepy figure came tumbling up on deck. “Jean, mon gars, we’re coming on “Mais oui, monsieur.

You do not =< mind them seeing over La ’ Fleurette, do you?” “Mais non, m’sieu’, of a , certainty not,” said Jean smoothly. “It is of a busi- ness but all mysterious.” “That’s so,” agreed George Headland, his heavy face even stupider than before. “A fine boat this, skip- per.” They had reached what was evidently Bertil- lot’s own cabin. “And I don’t mind telling you, now I’ve seen it, that my ideas have gone to smash, so to speak. I’d a notion there might be a place in here, where one of the men might have pushed in a box, don’t you know.” “Well, of all the blithering nonsense!” broke out Capt. Kresteven impulsively, while Bertillot lpoked from one to the other, as if only half comprehend- ing the drift of “Mr. Headland’s” remarks. “A box—in ’ere!” he echoed, “But non, M’sieur’, zere is no box. Zis is my cabin—my own—no one sets ze foot in ’ere but myself.” “Quite right, skipper. I see now I am wrong. No room to hide a cat in here.” ‘' Cleek swung around slowly on his heel. His hat slipped from his fingers to the floor, and he stooped slowly to pick it up. “Bit of a facer for me, eh, what?” he said de- jectedly. Then, as he caught sight of an oil stove standing on an empty packing case, he smacked his lips. “Have a morning cup of tea and an egg, ¢h? ‘Pon me soul, I could do with a cup myself.” Jean Bertillot looked him up and down in withering contempt. ““M’sieu’ is pleased to joke. I not ’ave time for morn- ing tea.” “Like a little something stronger, eh?” Cleek chuckled inanely; then lurched over, accidentally striking a case Jean. Bertillot uttered a hurried exclamation, and Cleek blundered away again, apologizing profusel,. “I’m like a bull in a china shop,” he muttered unde. his breath, as he mopped his forehead with his handker chief. Then, suddenly, he went off on another tack “Tell you what—it’s so precious dark in here, and stuff; —faugh! Let’s have that porthole open.” He lurched over, this time catching his foot in the black-dyed mat- ting which covered the floor and, it was only natur:” that he should lose his balance. With a hasty exclama tion of dismay, he clutched hold of the nearest crate of eggs, righting himself from what would have been a foolish fall, and sent the crate clattering to the floor with a heavy crash that made everything in the eabin clatter and jangle together. ERTILLOT’S face grew red with anger as the lid burst open, and the top layer of eggs tumbled out pell-mell over the floor. Considering the force of the fall, it was surprising that more eggs had not broken. Cleek, fairly covered with confusion ‘ at the blunder he had made, tried to make restitution by saving as many as possible, to a running accompani- ment of oaths and maledictions from Bertillot, who, when there were only the broken yolks to be seen, darted from the cabin, returning in a second with a cloth of a brilliant yellow color, with which he wiped up the staina Still apologetic, Cleek raised himself up. “f think, m’sieur, a cigarette would not be unac-. ceptable.” re He stopped short, as a faint, clicking sound came through the closed door; but only for a second: then h fumbled clumsily in his pocket, pulling out his cigare case and holding it toward Bertillot.

POL EOE LA TREE NN tin crtytom oty a > ) ET us tur: irom the Captains and the kings, from tue tu- mult and the shouting of bat- tle, to celebrate a department of modern warfare which has nothing to do with the lusty thrill of combat or with mnedals and decorations for bravery on the field, but whose losses in killed and wound- ed. as statistics show, surpass in proportion those of the cavalry and artillery and are exceeded only by the casualties of the in- fantry—the department, namely, of the army medical corps. To save and not to slay, on a mission of mercy instead of murder, the officers and men of the medical corps during the battles waged today in Europe take their stand on the very firing line, and freely: hazard their lives to bring succor to the wounded, whether on their own side o: that of the enemy. Along the bullet-swept trenches, through. thunder- clups of exploding shrapnel, pass these unsung heroes, on their errands of pity, pausing in the hail of steel and fire to ease some wretch’s sufferings with an injection cf morphine, to stop a hemorrhage with a tourniquet, ar to stretch out a wounded man in a more comfortable position. Sometimes. the ical corps w — REAL HEROES OF THE FIRING LINE — ———0 50 0 Duty of army surgeons is to go into the bullet-swept trenches themselves to relieve the wounded, and their loss in killed and injured is greater than in any arm of the service ex- cept the infantry « How the med- ork is organized in time of battle Ff is fitted with a pouch with appliances for first aid to the wounded. It contains a roll of bandages, a flask of aromatic spirits of ammonia, used ‘instead of alcohol as a stim- ulant, and splints of woven wire. Each man carries a knife, about the size of a bayonet, but blunt at the end, for making temporary splints, cutting brush, etc. This knife can- not be used as a weapon. For tourniquets strips of bandage are used, and are tight- ened with a knife or a stick. _In addition, every soldier in a modern army carries attached to his belt, along with his cartridges, a “first-aid’’ package, in the use of which he has taken a course of in- struction. He is taught how to stop bleed- performance of operations and for the care of patients during their convalescence. However, if a sick or wounded man seems likely to be invalided for any length of time—say three or four months—he is again forwarded to the evacuation hospital, which is al- ways outside tye fighting zone. In the present war, for instance, Great Britain’s evacuation hospitals are in England and Germany’s are on German soil. Only. mate nurses are employed at the cressing sta- ing and how to apply a bandage in a san- itary way. When he is wounded he may be able to aid himself, or if his injury is too severe he may be assisted by one of his comrades. This self-treat- ment is intended only in the emergency between the time the soldier is hit and that when the stretcher car- riers can come up. The numerica: proportion of the medical corps to the army is about one to 20. The United States army consists of 89,642 officers and men. The United States Army Medical Corps is compo:ed of 4137 men, commissioned and enlisted. The same same shell kills physician ev’ patient. In these days ‘o. long-range firing, when tue target is invisible to tie gunner, the Red Cross brassards worn on the sleeves of the . medical corps are a mockery;: for how could the scarlet in- signia be distinguished at a distance of a mile? At the slightest lull in the firing, litter bearers rush forward to the trenches to bear. the weunded to the rear, for ~ the movemets of the fighting men must not be encumbéred, or their spir- its depressed, by the pres- ence of suffering comrades. The bearers are not sup- posed to reflect that, with- out an opportunity of striking back, for they are unarmed, they themselves may be shot down in the act of carrying their pitia- ble burdens out of danger. It is of extreme interest to now just how the work of the medical corps is or- ganized during a battle. In the van is a division of picked surgeon-officers and their helpers, who ego wherever the fighting men go. to the very battle-front proportion holds true in France. In Germany and England it is. somewhat larger; in Russia and Austria it is probably rather less. Officers in the medical corps are especially trained for. their responsibilities. In this country, for in- stance, there .is an Army Medical School at Wash- ington to which only grad- uate physicians and sur- geons are admitted, and then only after they pass ination. Here they receive a nine-months course—in the army system of admin- istration work and military law, to handling’ the wounded on the field, spe- cial bacteriology and chem- istry, water analysis, clin- ical microscopy and animal parisitology. On completing the course and passing the proper ex- aminations, the graduates receive commissions’ as Second Lieutenants in the United States army. They may rise grade by grade in their own department to become Surgeon-General, with the_rank of Prigadier- General. However, the ca- itself. It is among these medicg! pioneers that most abe ofethe department casualties occur. It is they who creep into the trenches to assuage te pain of the wounded, they who find those who have been hit and point them out to the gsiretcher carriers. : Fehind the line are four successive stations for the wounded: First, the dressing station; second, the field hozpital; third, the base hospital, and fourth, the evac- vation hospital. The dressing stations are A wounded British :marine on his way to the hospital from one of the outer trenches at Liere, during the fighting about Antwerp. tions, the field hospitals and the base hospitalg.

Military surgeons serve at the first three sta- tions from the front, but at the evacuation hospita! the medical corps reserves, consisting of civilian sur- reer of Gen. Leonard Wood bas shown that an army surgeon may rise in the United States to the very summit of mil- itary command. As officers in the army and at the same time as neutrals under The Hague conventions, the medical corps personnel occupies a somewhat anomalous position. Its fundamental function is to aid its side to win victories, and to this purpose the. care of the sick and wounded is only subsidiary. A United States Army Medical Corps officer de- fines the main duties of his immediately behind the fring line, and usually cons.st of a line of ambu- lances, equipped for emer- gency treatment. To these the men wounded at the front are borpe on litters. If possible, the ambulances are stationed in some pro- tected spot. Those who are only slightly wounded are here treated in the epen air and then sent back to the front. na The others are sent on in ambulatices or motor cars, «to the field hospitals a bit farther to the rear, and here a second process of “imination is performed, yaly the wounded who may recover in two or three ®eys being retained The f*:ld hospitals are struc- tvsres of canvas, borne on ¥ agons or trucks, and have @mergency facilities for ‘ainor surgical operations. it is the rule, however, ex- sept in cases of instant eecessity, to perform no sperations at the first two fospital stations.

Under the first head come the swift and skillful treatment of wounds so that incapacitated soldiers may return to the front as so0On as possible, and also the vast field of preventive medicine, in which sur- geons of the United States army have won world-cele- “brated triumphs in Cuba, the Philippines and Pan- ama. For instance, at the Chickamauga camp sin 1897-8 there occurred in three brigades of troops 3000 cases of typhoid, re- sulting in 300 deaths. In a camp of the same size, during the mobilization in Texas in 1912, there was not a single fase of ty- phoid.

Forbes laughed at the spectacle of a big, rich man pouting like a reluctant child against having a sweet- meat forced on him. “Then why are you goMe?” he grinned. “How did you know I was?” , “Because you said you didn’t want to.

He was searching the iand- scape for Persis, and he was as restless among his own thoughts as the young usually are when the old are commenting on the helplessness of life. But Tait did not notice Forbes’ inattention. Rum- maging among the confusions of his own griefs, he had come upon a bright hope. man to win Mildred away,from her avocations back to the main business of ov p He smiled.

Tait followed the line of Forbes’ gaze and made out a man and a woman on horseback turning in at the gate marked “Exit Only.” Forbes spoke. “Shan’t we stroll back to the club- house? I’m expected there for luncheon.” “By all means,” said Tait. “And I want you to meet Mildred again.” “I'd love to,”’ said Forbes, absently. He said nothing more, but strode on so rapidly down the steep slope that Tait had to take his arm for support to hold him back. .““You’re visiting at the Enslee’s, Mrs. Neff tells me,” the old man panted. | , *Ves.”’ P “Well, my boy, I don’t know who she is, but I bet she isn’t worth it—not if she trails with the Enslee pack.” ‘ “Oh, but she is beautiful—and wonderful.” “You must be hit damned hard.” **Am.” ’ And then, not heeding the connotation, he exclaimed, as Persis emerged from the eclipsing shrubbery: There's only one woman can ride like that.” / Tait stared again, and now he made her out. Instant- ly, with the exultance one feels over a secret someone else lets slip, he cried: “Oho, my boy, that’s the woman who keeps you here! Mrs. Neff hinted at it, but I wouldn't believe it till I had it from you.” His gloating sank again te fatherly solicitude as he pleaded earnestly: “For God’s sake, boy, don’t love her! Of all women don’t love Persis Cabot! She’s the most heartless of them He was not the first man of eld that had warned youth against beauty. Nor was the last that shall fail to be heeded.

The Sen- ator spared him any pressure on that point. He said mite: 3 . “Wnslee has a lot of money—more than her father ‘ si Continued from page 9. — has. In fact, her father fs in a very bad plight.” “Poor Persis!” Forbes groaned. “Poor Persis!” There was such. anguish in his tone that the Sena gripped his arm and murmured: Pos “Do you care so much for her?” Forbes stopped short. and stared Into thé old man's eyes. “A man like me loves once, and loves hard. If I lost her, my life wouldn’t be worth the snap of my finger.”” And he added in a raucous voice “Or the click of a trigger.” The Senator leaned heavily on him and closed his eyes in a wince of pain. He had heard his own dead son speak just that way. When he opened his eyes he saw that Forbes was smil- ing glowingly. “Look at her, Senator! She’s so beautiful! I can’t let Enslee have her! Look at him? He's as afraid of his horse as his horse is ashamed of him. What’s he up to now? Rein him in, you fool! He'd drive a hobby horse into hysterics. And now he’s sent Persis’ horse in the air! What’s the matter with him? Why doesn’t he”—— They crashed through the cedars and rhodendrons, and plunged across the lawn to the clear space of the golf links. Forbes saw the demon look in the white eyes of Persis’ horse. He had seen mustangs in that humor shake off their_tormentors and tear them _wolf- ishly with their fangs. “He’s got the bit in his teeth!” he groaned. “He'll kill her! My God, he’ll kill her! She can’t hold him! I’ve got to get him somehow.” He had a fierce impulse to meet the horse, leap at him, catch him by the bridle and the nose and smother him to a standstill. But Tait had seen a policeman killed trying to stop a horse so, and he fMng his arms about Forbes. “No, you won’t!” he gasped. “You can’t stop him! won’t let you risk your life—not for that woman.” “Let me go! Let me go!” Forbes pleaded, unwilling to use his strength against the old man. But Tait clung to him, seized him anew as Forbes wrenched his nand loose; fell to his knees, but still held fast and was dragged along moaning: “My boy, I love you like a son. life—not for her!” Then suddenly his clutch relaxed; his fingers opened; he rolled forward on his face, his white hair fluttering in the grass. And Forbes, hardly knowing that he was released, felt himself free, and ran with all his might to inter- cept the plunging monster, who came snorting his rage, flinging his huge barrel this way and that, and shaking the white saliva from his mouth. “~~ I You shan’t risk your (To Be Continued in the Next Issue of the Sunday Post-Dispatch Magazine.) Former Missourian Possible King of Poland bieski served in the Army of the Potomac, and fought at the battle of Gettysburg, where he was left on the field for dead. At the end of the war he went to Mexico and enlisted in the republican army, which was fighting against Emperor Maximilian, receiving the rank of Colonel. His service in Mexico was inspired by the wrongs done to his family and people by Austria. It fell to the lot of Col. Sobieski, whom Maximilian had banished from Genca, to assist in a military ca- pacity at the trial and execution of. that ill-starred Thus, through his person, Poland was enabled to strike a tregic blow against the Hapsburgs, so long the op- prescers of the nation. Sobies!li, after the collapse of Maximilian’s empire, re- turred to the United States and settled in Minnesota. Only a year later, in 1868, he was elected a member of t-e Minnescta Legislature, and tlfere distinguished him- self by introducing three bills which at that time, he says, stamped him as a crank. One was to give women the right of suffrage, another was to prohibit the sale of liquor and the third was to abolish capital punish- ment. None of them passed. In 1882 Sobieski established himself at Neosho, Mo., with his wife and two children, a boy named John Sobieski, and a daughter. In 1886 he was nominated by the Prohibitionists and Greenbackers of his district for Cengress and polled several hundred votes. Ten years later h® accepted the forlorn’hope of the Prohibition party’s nomination for Governor of Missouri. “I did not run for election,” says he good-humoredly, “I walked. It was my Democratic opponent, William Joel Stone, who ran. Not many Missourians in those days seemed to agree with my views on prohibition.” Col. Sobieski’s son died at the age of 13 years, and his daughter, Mary, wedded Louis S. Gilhousen. They have a son 8 years old. So that the name of the. line may not die out, the name of the boy has been changed by law to John Gilhousen Sobieski. For several years Col. Sobieski and his family have lived at 2897 ~righton avenue, Los Angeles. The boy has been chosen to rep- resent Los Angeles at the chilcren’s exercises at the Panama Exposition, in which school children from every state will take part. : Since the death of John B. Gough, Col. Sobieski has been probably the best-known le-turer on temperance in the United States. He has delivered addresses in every city in the Union, besides touring England, Ire- land and Wales and thé English colonies. He has been in the lecture field for 47 years. He takes his pretensions to the kingship of Poland lightly, pointing out that his claim would be. senti- mental and historical rather than dynastic. For in the later history of Poland there was no such thing as a royal dynasty. The monarchy was elective, the Kings being chosen by the nobles. It was by such an election that John III won bis crown. Still, the name Sobieski is one to conjure with in Poland. as John III was the most brilliant figure in the nation’s gallery of heroes. His victory over the Turks at Vienna, a victory which preserved Europe from the menace of Ottoman subjection, made him not only the national hero of Poland, but also the paladin of the whole of Christendom: Continued from Page 7. But Col. Sobieski, even if the crown were proffered to him, declares he would refuse it. “‘My American cit- izenship,” he declares, “is more precious to me than the kingship of any country in Europe.” The hardships of his boyhood, the execution of his father, grandfather and uncles, and the misfortunes which drove his mother to her grave, filled him with an _ inextinguishable hatred of monarchs Kings and Emperors. At Gettvs- burg the awful cries of anguish which rang about him, ‘as he himself lay near death, inspired him with a horror for war which the years have not dulled. Besides, he holds the Czar’s promise to erect an autonomous Poland in contempt, declaring that this is not the first time Russia has sought to beguile Poland with similar rosy hopes. He believes that the great result of the present war will be the abolition of all monarchies. A symbol of the intensely pacific character of this son of warriors is a picture of Jesus of Nazareth, which he wears always in his buttonhole. He has written three books, an autobiography, a “Life of. President Faure” and “The Adventures of a Polish Nobleman.” a Do You Want to ANTED: Adventurers! Men who are a for almost anything, who are unafraid, who love remote, strange places, who are willing td put civilization and its lures out of mind and thought for six or seven years, may find the chance of a lifetime with Capt. J. Foster Stackhouse, F. R. G. S., F. R. Z. S., F. R. S. G. S., etce., commander of the British-American Oceanographic Expedition, Ex- plorers’ Club, New York. : The rewards offered are a trip to all the seven seas of the world, visits to islands and territories as fet un- trod by the feet of white men, adventure and discovery in every latitude from the equatorial Pacific to ‘the Sea of Oxhotsk and back to the Antarctic—and glory. The men who go down to sea on this expedition will see civilization and savagery in almost every climate from the tropics to the Arctic and Antarctic circles. They will have a chance to study the oceans as they were never observed before, and they will be partici- pants in the principal object of the voyage, the discov- ery and mapping of 2500 unknown islands, rocks and reefs in the Pacific, reported from time to time by skippers and never officially charted. _ What other discoveries may be made—of ‘tribes, spe- cies, secrets of the unplumbed seas—it remains for the voyage itself to disclose. The trip will be, made in the Discovery, the ship by means of whic pt. Scott reached the South Poie, only to die on his return journey. The Discovery js now fitting in London and will cross to New York in the early spring for the start of the voyage in May. Even ‘before the expedition reaches New York it is to perform a service at once interesting and remarka- ble.

Adventuring mine whether the cause of the disaster may not be fixed upon the tip of a submerged volcano whose ex- istence in the vicinity has been thrice reported. The Titanic «went down approximately in 51 west longitude and 41 north latitude. The supposed moun- tain head has been three times reported within 365 miles of this place and about 11 miles from the place where the Titanic struck. In 1816 Lourp, a Norwegian, re- ported breakers or a rock in this vicinity. In 1827 a similar report was made by Maxwell, a Briton. Mar- quand, a French skipper, confirmed these rumors in 1855. “It seems plausible,’ says Capt. Stackhouse. “The theory is that some great berg ran foul on the tip of this supposed mountain and clung there. Such a berg at- ‘ tracts all the smaller pieces of ice, and soon becomes a great floe, anchored there on the pinnacle of a sub- merged mountain. When you consider that these im- mense bergs ride submerged seven-eighths below the. surface, you will understand how readily this might happen. At any rate, there have been no soundings within forty miles of the Titanic’s-graveyard, so we are going out to sound the whole region and determine whether or not her destruction was due merely to a floating berg.” » The first leg of the voyage will be down to the Pan- ama Canal, through this new waterway and into the Pacific, where the first and one of the most important large tasks will be undertaken. Of this Capt. Stack- house said the other day: “Your great canal loses much of its value until a trade route across the Pacific is explored. Those at present in use are all in\the North Pacific, either from San Francisco or Vancouver to Japan direct, or to Japan and Australia via Hawaii. Before the canal can be used generally by transpacific stedmers, a safe route must be charted. os ’ fered from excessive imagination. for Lost Islands? “Your hydregraphic office in Washington has records of 2500 rocks, reefs, submerged banks and islands in the Pacific which appear on no map ever drawn. These unknown perils in the sea have been reported from time to time by skippers of every nation, and the records kept in Washington, It is easy to understand what a menace to shipping these things are. Our first business is to go over this geat ocean with a fine-tooth comb, so to speak, and clear up all these mysteries. In many in- stances, no doubt, it will be discovered that the skippers saw a floating whale or the hulk of a wreck, or guf- But that does not matter. A reported danger is almost as costly as a real one. Every skipper gives these reported peril zones a wide berth and steers off his course to do it. We must get all these reports substantiated or dis- proved. Only then will shipping be safe and economical in the Pacific. “Just what we will discover in the way of islands remains to be seen, but it stands to r@ason that out of 2500 reports there ought to be some actual islands, and some of real size and value. We may possibly find inhabited islands, heretofore unknown. We.are also likely to make important discoveries of plant and animal life ag yet unrecorded.” : Now, as to the kind of men wanted. Here are the specifications as given by the commander: “Men of education preferred. Must be sound in wind and limb. Must fit into an expedition, be of good dispo- sition and possess courage. Thorough sportsmen are best. The expedition will need an ornithologist, an anthropologist, a geologist, a zoologist, a biologist, a magnetic observer and a meteorologist. There will be no objection if one person combine several of these qualificatiqgns. In addition, a little later on, about ten real sailormen will be needed. Some have already been enlisted from the British Navy, but more are wanted,” SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-D!S vATCH—NOVEMBER 1, 1944,

These may be expressed .by the statement that he regards the subconscious mind as containing a record of all the thoughts and ideas we have suppressed because we did not like them, whether this was done deliberately or otherwise. As Dr. H. Crichton-Miller put it in a fliscussion at the recent meeting of the British Medical Association, in the un- conscious we are dealing, according to Freud, with experiences that had to be fought against. Dr. C. C, Jung of Zurich expressed the newer and more satisfactory view that the relation between the conscious and the unconscious was a compensatory one; compensatory vices were part of the es- sential content of the unconscious; un- conscious virtues compensated for con- scious deficiencies. An individual's life might be one-sided, but, failing to realize this, he might battle against his uncon- scious, that is te say, against what were really compensating elements in him. Dr. Constance E. Long of London -re- garded the unconscious as.a friend as well as an enemy. All of which goes to show that some of the best psychologists have come to recognize that the subconscious is not all evil, as Freud’s writings infer, but a storehouse in which good and evil may be about equally mixei. Sterilization of Milk ILK can be sterilized by elec- tricity. Passing an electric cur- rent through milk appeared at first more likely to destroy the milk than to kill the microies, and the first experiments seemed to prove that the pessimists were right. Currents of ell kinds were sent through masses of mnilk, and the result was to leave the microbes fairly happy. Later work showed that high-frequency currents passed through the milk without chang- ing either its flavor or its nutrient value, vet cleaning out all the disease-carrying microbes. The apparatus: generally consists of a glass tube having electrodes therein with the necessary electrical conn«ctions, the milk entering at one end of the tube and leaving it at the other and practically sterile, the central. electrode connected with one pole of the transformer and ‘the two outer electrodes connected with the other pole. As the electrical supply of the city of Liverpool is on the con- tinuous system, an alternator, driven by a direct current motor, was necessary but, on the other hand where the electric supply is already alternating the alter- nator can be dispensed with. At the Liverpool infants’. milk depot the elec- trical apparatus consists of a direct cur- rent motor coupled to an alternating current generator, a high tension trans- former, together with a current trans- former, a pressure transformer and the usual switch gear and regulating devices. The transformers are kept in a safety -upboard, the lethal tube in a glass-front- ed cupboard, the switchboard so placed that the operator has complete control over the installation, and the whole made foolproof. The milk is not sterilized in the strict- est sense of the word, but there is a reduction in the total number of bacteria by 99.93 per cent over a series of 15 daily examinations. In heat-sterilized milk and in pasteurized milk the whole of the bacteria are not destroyed, for the reason that some bacteria resist boil- ing temperature for some minutes, and that a temperature below boiling point they may resist for long periods. The difference is, no doubt, also exhibited to- wards electricity. The milk will keep perfectly sweet for at least three or four days after treatment, d this period will cover distribution and use in all cases of household milk supplies.

BUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. Why Ice Melts and Water Boils: A Study ERE are the most important facts H about heat, divested of all theory and stated as simply as ever they have been. They are from an article written by Charles H. Bromley, especially for boiler operators and print- ed in Power. - The standard quantity or unit of heat is the British thermal unit, generally expressed, as the B.t.u. This is the amount of heat required to raise the in Heat it did to raise iis temperature from 32 degrees to 212 degrees. The heat required to make steam of water at 212 degrees is called latent, because the thermometers do not show it, while that required to raise its tem- perature to 212 degrees is called sensible, because we can see it: The two together produce the total heat of the steam. You cannot soak up as much water 144 HEAT UNITS MELT ONE POUND OF ICE AT 32°F ANDINTO ONE POUND OF WATER AT 22°F temperature of water 1 degree Fahren- heit. The temperature tndicates the quality of the heat. One hundred pounds of water at. 100 degrees Fahrenheit con- tains more heat than one pound of water at 200 degrees Fahrenheit. The latter is twice as hot as the other, but it did not take as much heat to make it that hot as it took to make the larger body IGO HEAT UNITS RAISE THE TEMPEFATUIE OF ONE POUND OF WATEfe AT 32°F TO 212°F,, BOILING POINT. half as hot. It took 168 B.t.u. in the former case and 6800 B.t.u. in the latter. Thermometers are instruments graduated arbitrarily to suit our convenience. On Fahrenheit thermom- eters the freezing point of water is marked at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees. On Centigrade thermometers the freezing point is marked at 0 degree and the boiling point at 100. At the temperature of 32.degrees Fahr- enheit water changes from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a solid; ice forms or melts; it is a critical tempera- ture. To melt one pound of ice at 32 degrees into water at 32 degrees, 144 heat units or B.t.u. must be applied to the ice; and, to freeze one pound at 32 degrees into ice at 32 degrees, 144 B.t.u. must be taken out of the water. To raise the temperature of one pound of water from 32 to 212 degrees, which is the boiling point at atmospheric pres- sure, 180 B.t.u. must be absorbed, and to cool it from 212 to 32 degrees, 180 B.t.u. must be given up by the water. To boil one pound of water at 32 de- grees into steam at 212 degrees will re quire 180 B.t.u.4+-970.4 B.t.u.—1150.4 B.t.u. Notice that the steam is no hotter than the water from which it was pro- duced after the water reached 212 de- grees, although it took over 5.3 times as much heat to turn it into steam as Want a Clear Head?

But Dr. Barkow of the Filsher Antarctic Expedition records similar turbidity in latitude 70 degrees south in the middle of June, 1912, and for several months thereafter. He ob served cirrus clouds at unusual altitudes and was able to read several hours daily by the light of the sky, although the sun was below the horizon, even at noon. In short, everything indicated the pres- ence of reflecting particles at exceptional altitudes. As it seems impossible that the dust of Katmai could have reached the Ant- arctic so soon after the eruption, Dr. Barkow concludes that the phenomena observed by him were caused by dust of cosmic origin, although this may have been reinforced, in the northern hemi- sphere, by volcanic dust from Mount Katmai. Preventing Malaria Sz are placed on all openings on cur warships at Vera Cruz and Tampico, the men are kept below after dark, except those required by duty to be on the decks, and these are obliged to wear gloves and & netting over the head and neck. These precautions have resulted in an almost complete ab- sence of malaria on American vessels, al- though the ships of other nations had numerous cases. He Was Deaf Astonishing Improvement in Hearing, Edward Gregory, Engineer, Gives Information Free. An engineer who had tar trouble for years finally became so deaf he could not hear the sound of a steam engine, bells or voices. After vainly seeking relief he was compelled to. give up ‘his osition. His case seemed- hopeless. His deafness was aggravated by head dis- turbances, dry catafrrh, nervousness and de- spondency. To the surprise of all, continued improving until he conversations, could hear a train at a distance and even the singing of the birds in the trees. His head and nerves became tranquil. He got his position back again. This was no miracle: no surgery, no artificial hearing devices, no electric apparatus, no loss of time.

' ss & > * 7% / NOVEL THINGS WORTH KNOWING) Cost More Than $15,000 =A ytomatic Mail Catcher That to Kill a Man in War EN. PERCIN of the French army, in a recent magazine article de- clared an American estimate that it costs $15,000 to kill a single in warfare rather underestimates the figures. He gave figures of his own which seem to prove that the cost is greatly in excess of that. He arrives at results by considering the cost of killing a single man as the quotient of a division of the total cost of a war to one of the sides by the number of men slain on the other side. He es- timates that in the Franco-German War of 1870-1871 France spent $4,000,000,000 for actual war expenses, $2,000,000,000 to repair the damages of the war and $10,000,000,000 in indemnities, interest, etc., and that it cost $21,000 for each German killed. Similarly in 1877 and 1878 it cost Russia $15,000 for each Turk slain and, in 1905, it cost Russia $20,400 for each Jap slain. The same method carried into our own Civil War would fix a price of $12,380 on each Confederate killed. Percin argues that while the destruc- tiveness of modern warfare is much greater than formerly, the cost of it is also much greater. Furthermore he de- clares that the increased killing power of. modern arms is relatively set off by the increased defensive power of modern fortifications. As a result, he says, the number of men killed to the hour of ac- tual combat is steadily diminishing. The percentage of those slain to the hour of man fighting was 6 per cent under Frederick. _ the Great, 3 per cent under Napoleon, 2 per cent in 1870 and 0.5 in the Russo- Japanese War. “On the other hand,” he points out, “in the Franco-German War there were only a dozen or so big battles The sol- diers fought little between Froeschwil- ler and Sedan, between Sedan and Coulmeirs. In Manchuria, to the con- trary, the soldiers fought virtually every day. The battle of Mukden lasted 15 days, that of Cha-Ho, 12 days, and that of Liao-Yang eight days. This increase in the total length of the fighting has compensated for the difference between the number of men slain to the actual hour of combat. This explains why the cost of killing an individual in 1905 was not greater than the cost of killing an individual in 1870. “It is impossible to estimate closely what the actual cost of killing each man will be in the present war. The sum will depend a great deal on the topography of the battle field and the character of the fighting. If the fighting is continual a* in Manchuria or the recent Balkan War, the cost will be in the neighborhood of $15,000. If the fighting takes place at rare intervals it will, be much greater. At any rate it will not diminish. “What kills most and reduces most rapidly the total effective fighting force is not the rifle or the cannon, but it is fatigue and disease. In 1870 there wers 380,000 Germans in hospital and these, whether they died or survived, had to be subtracted from the total effective fighting force. The Crimean War cost the allies four times as many men from disease as from bullets. I count great- ly, in the present war, upon a great diminution of hosnital deaths because of nur better sanitary precautions.” ® Mii heticn Piles” for Foundations STRANGELY simple and econom- ical yet extraordinarily strong method of making concrete piles for foundation purposes has re- cently been introduced in France. It is based upon the fact that a charge of ex- plosive set at the bottom of a vertical hole filled with compact matter will pro- duce an excavation, thus compressing the earth all about it. A steel tube, about twenty inches in di- apiter, with a wooden core, is forced into the earth to a depth of from fifteen to twenty-five feet. The wooden core is withdrawn; an explosive cartridge con- taining about a pound and a half of pow- der, is sent to the bottom and so placed that its explosive force shail be princi- pally horizontal. The tube is filled up with wet concrete and is then drawn up about three feet. The cartridge is, ex- ploded by a detonator and a small mag- net. Immediately after the explosion the still wet concrete flows down into the cavity thus produced, filling it entirely. The tube is then filled up with concrete well rammed down. The pile is now com- plete and ‘s in the form of a pillar resting upon a bulbous base about 3 feet 9 inches wide, imbedded in firm earth. The size of the base can be regulated by the charge of powder and can be measured accurately by the fall of the cengrete in the tube. %. j A f Requires No Human Assistance ] fungi that are good to eat and ~ of .

By automatic mechanism it will be possible to take on or discharge from rapidly moving trains—-and with equal safety and facility—a parcel post package of eggs or a heavy sack of mail. Albert Hupp, the inventor and builder of the automatic device, was for many years a traveling salesman in Kansas City. T United States Postoffice Depart- meafvera months ago granted permis- sion Mr. Hupp, for the purposes of final demonstration, to install his equip- ment and handle United States mails on some line of railroad where there was lreavy traffic. A contract was made with the Chicago & Alton, for service between Chicago and St. Louis. There will be 35 stations where mail will be automatically received and delivered. The power that operates this auto- matic system is derived from the axle of the mail car when the latter is in motion. Outside the rails, at a point 360 feet from where the exchange of mail is to be made, is a trip, which is struck by a trip on the approaching mail car. This instantly releases the mechanism in the car, which is controlled by a worm attached to the middle of the axle. The mechanism is geared to turn one degree of its revolu- tion while the train travels three feet on the rails, thus insuring exchange of mail, regardless of the speed of the _ train, whether it be four miles or sixty miles an hour. The moment the mechanism is tripped, the car door begins opening and is fully open after a distance of 180 feet has been traveled. The receiving arm, slightly curved, now begins reaching out from the side of the car, to take on the mail sacks, each of which is suspended from an up- right crane—the number being optional, up to 25—that stands beside the track. By the time the train has moved a sec- ond 180 feet. the receiving arm is fully extended, and each sack, as it is taken from the crane, slides swiftly along the curve of the receiving arm and drops al- ways at the same place inside the car, its impetus coming from the progress of the . seam 2 -- MAIMFIZOM A MOVING CAR. Immediateiv beneath the upright cranes is a trough for receiving whatever mail is discharged from the train. This trough is 150 feet long, with its bottom inclined at an angle of 45 degrees. The mechanism that operates the receiving arm that takes on the mail also operates a delivery chute that begins moving from the car doors as soon as the latter is open. The bottom of the-_chute telescopes and lets the mail fall into the receiving trough, from which there is no possibil- ity of a sack’s being drawn under the wheels of the train. The chute is drawn back into the car at once after it has made delivery. The receiving arm re- mains fully extended, however, until the full 150 feet covered by the receiving trough has teen traversed, after which the arm returns automatically to its place on the side of the car. Both the receiving arm and the delivery chute now become securely locked. All this takes place without the slightest attention on the part of the mail clerks inside the car. The capacity of the system is such that a train can collect up to 25 pouches and sacks from 25 cranes at any one station. In actual tests, 12 sacks, one at a time, weighing more than 600 pounds in the aggregate, have been taken in. Meas- ured by the average postal clerk catch, this is equal to the catch of 30 clerks in 30 mail cars, with 30 iron hooks and 30 station cranes at 30 stations. There are now 12,000 stations in the United States where mail is caught by fast trains running at full speed. \GAZINS- -ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH- -NOVEMBFR 1, 1914, ae Fungi That Are Good to Eat a lecture W. A. Murrill described the few that are poisonous. He said the majority of fleshy fungi are edible, and through ignorance of this fact “an immense quantity of nutritious, di- gestible and palatable food goes to waste in our fields and forests which would be utilized in China and many other parts of the Old World.” Mr. Murrill advised all who are not experts to confine themselves to the fol- lowing kinds of fungi: Common mushroom, morel, relle, beefsteak and sulphur’ colored polypore; shaggy mane. common ink- cap and glistening inkcap; all puifballs, provided they are white, tender and homogeneous within; all coral fungi, if they are fresh, crisp, tender and have no bad odor or bad taste. The oyster mushroom and its near relatives. These are large, with white gills and short stems, and grow on dead wood above ground. Ali the foregoing are safe. He also gave the following valuable hints about cooking fungi: “Reject old specimens or those in fested with insects, cut off the stems except in rare cases where they aré unusually tender, peel a few kinds that seem to require it, wash quickly in co'd water, drain and keep in a cool place until ready to cook. “The most practical and successful methods of. cooking resolve themselves into broiling, baking and stewing. In the first, which I prefer to all other methods, the mushrooms are cooked thoroughly but as quickly as possible on both sides over a hot fire; seasoned with pepper, salt, butter and perhaps small bits of toasted bacon, and served hot on toast. “To bake mushrooms, line the pen with toast, add the specimens, season, pour in half a cup of cream, cover chanta- - Closely, and bake rather Slowly for 15 minutes or more, according to quality. In stewing, the mushrooms are boiled in water until thoroughly cooked, then seasoned, thickened and served on toast. This last method is often used for the tougher or poorer varieties.” Work Done by a Balance Wheel HE balance wheel of a Watch vi- brates 300 times a minute, 18,000 times each hour, 432,000 times ¢ day and 157,788,000 times ‘ year. As each vibration covers abou one and a half revolutions, the shaft oj which the balance wheel is mounte; makes 236,682,000 revolutions in its bear ings each year. Compare this, says th« Scientific American, with a modern loco motive with seven-foot drivers, whick would have to run 985,824 miles to ma’ a an equal number of revolutions: an, running at the rate of a mile a minute, without stopping, it would take 68% days, or nearly two years, for the axle of the drive wheel of the locomotéve to mate as many revolutions as the’ balance wheel shaft of the watch does in one year, and it would cover a distance of more than 39 times around the world. Springless Valves HE possibilities of the spring!ess type of poppet valve were preity thoroughly demonstrated in some of the recent foreign road races. In fact, they worked so well that the Scientific American thinks there ‘s every probability that they will come into fair- ly general use in the not far distant future. The positively operated valve differs from the usual type in that the cam not only opens the valve but closes it as well. In the generally arcep‘ed type of poppet valve, the valve itself is closed by a heavy spring. It is claimed for the springless valves that a higher rate of speed is p@ssible; that greater power naturally results and that the farc- tor of safety is increased. With the spring-controlled valve, the piston spec] is limited by the inability of the spring to close the valve before the cam has come around and started to open it aesin. Heavy springs and light valves have partly solved the problem, which still remains where springs are used. With the positively operated valve it ‘is no longer the valve which limits the speed of the motor. _— — dl —-— HE.
