SAYS MIND WAS BLANK FOR THREE MONTHS Asserts He Does Not Remem- ber What Happened Until He Awoke in Farmhouse —Tells of Explanation to Fiancee Here. Frederic A. Tenny, solicitor for the Carondelet Printing Co., who resided at 4576 Clayton ave- nue, and who strangely disappeared in his pajamas from the steamboat Stacker Lee the night of July 10, bejng iater given up for dead by his atives, has reappeared at his ents’ home at Cleveland. He has } tten a letter to his fiancee here, / rising her of the fact. Notifica- } jn also was received last Monday | -y Kis brother, Clarence Tenny, teller i}; ‘t the Southern Commercial Bank, ) r201 South Broadway. i Tenny told a Post-Dispatch corre- spondent in Cleveland last night a weird story of his whereabouts and ex- petiences the last five months, during which his relatives, despairing of ever getting trace of him, had filed» his will tn the Probate Court of St. Louis and had once viewed a body found in- the Mississippi River shortly after his dis- appearance, in the belief it might have been his. His Will Left $5000 to Fiancee. Officials of the Missouri State Life In- surance Co. expressed surprise when a reporter informed them of Tenny’s whereabouts; the company last Wednes- day had filed suit in the Circuit Court to have canceled a $5000 policy which .Tenny had taken out’ with them, ani which, his will disclosed, was for the benefit of Miss Bertha Ernst, a stenog- ‘rapher, described in-—his will as his fiancee, The insurance company alleged -Tenry made false and incomplete state- ments when he applied for the policy, Nov. 21, 1913. ; Tenny tad _ started on his vacation when he disappeared. He boarded the wleambeat at St. Louis and announced he was going to Cape Girardeau for a week. He disappeared from the steam- ‘oat dressed in his pajamas while the voat was between Neely’s Landing and tape Girardeau during the night. His chance stateroom companion, O. C. fackers, a St. Louisan on his way to emphis on his vaeation, said Tenny took ‘me headache powders and tnen went + the top deck, saying he wanted fresh r. He did not return.

Tella of Disappearance. Two months later his will was filed. Besides the bequest to Miss Ernst, ‘t disclosed he had carried a $5000 accident {insurance policy. His will stated that if he should meet death by accident two- thirds of the money from this policy should go to his brother, Clarence, and the remainder to his father, E. B. Tenny, auto delivery owner of 1838 East 10lst.street, Cleveland. It was at the father’s home that a Post-Dispatch correspondent found Tenny last night. Calmly, and in a monotone, as if he were reciting a bit of verse he had learned, Tenny related his. story. He said he bad been working in St. Louis two years and nothing had hap- pened in his life meyond the humdrum of business. “There was the girl,’ he then said. “They found a $5000 insurance policy in my pockets afterward, made out to her. That about tells her part = the’ story.” = Tenny told of taking the boat, of be- coming violently ill and of telling Hack- ert he needed fresh air. He _ said he walked to the boat rail, and then, he gaild, came utter forgetfulness. “They tell me I must have fallen and struck my head against something—a rock, the side of the steamer, or a log, “but I don’t know,” he said. “I can’t remember, and I've tried so hard. “Three months later I awoke in a farmhouse in South Dakota. I won’t tell where it was exactly.. I've promised ' mot to. But anyway, it all came back to me. I told them I was Frederic A.

They told me I had fallen under a sunstroke as I worked in the fields. 24 years old, a firm of Eames & Young, in an interview today with a Post-Dispatch reporter, amplifying the views which he ex- pressed Monday before the Board of Fublic Service, when he advocated the creation of a Municipal Art Commission. He charged the city’s most conspicuous recent monuments with being either un- of his indictment were the following: The Jahn statue in Forest Park is inartistic and is in an inharmonious setting. The widely exploited Naked Truth statue in Reservoir Park was badly designed, and is unsuitably placed. The Laclede statue, between the city hall and the Municipal Courts building, is not well located. The ‘“‘ornamental’’ bridges in For- est Park are inartistic and incon- gruous and seem to be the work of engineers rather than of architects. Most of the buildings and sheds in | Forest Park and Fairground are ridiculous in design. Young, in his appearance before the Board of Public Service, represented the St. Louis Chapter of the American In- stitute of Architecture. In his inter- view Young said New York and Bos- ton would not have tolerated such in- congruities in public art as those which he had mentioned. He said St. Louis needs a commission of architects to pass upon the plans for new municipal build- ings, for parkways, public squares, bridges and statuary. The controversy over the placing of « fountain back of the new Public Li- brary at Thirteenth and Olive streets would not have arisen, he said, if a commission had been in existence to Fass upon the location of the fountain. Many persons have asserted that a drinking fountain will be entirely out of place in the sunken gardens back of the library, since the fountain is to we beautiful or unfitly placed. The counts! cently placed :1 Yorest Park, Young said, was badly designed, particularly in that the central head was out of scale with the athletic figures on either side. It was not well placed alongside of the cana] in Forest Park, he pointed out. Naked Truth Not Well Placed. The Naked Truth statue was badly designed, he said, and was not suitably { Placed. There are certain architectural features in connection with all sculp- tural works that should be perfected upon the advice of architects. The back Gf the Naked Truth is architecture, he said, and the monument is so placed as to give it an awkward appearance in its present surroundings. There is other statuary that is being erected in the city which will be as ridiculous as some that has already been rlaced, he said, but he did not wish to make any criticism of that before it was completed. It would have cost the city no more to have the advice of an architect on ‘ridges and shelter and animal houses in the parks than under the bresent system, according to Young, What Commission Would Do. The difference would be that the city would: have ornamental buildings in the public parks, every piece of statuary would be placed where it would show to its very bast advantage, and all bridges of all kinds in the parks would be ornamental and in _ harmony with their surroundings. Young said that he requested the Board of Freeholders to make provision for a city architect in the new charter, but that his suggestion was not ac- cepted. Other-cities have created these commissions, and in New York the commission has veto power. No piece of statuary can be put up, nor any municipal building erected, until the de- signs or plans have been eereres by the commission.

ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 2.—James P. Cal- laway, a prominent young business and club man, was shot and instantly killed here early today by W. B. Carhart, pres- ident of a shoe manufacturing company. A verdict of ‘‘justifiable homicide” was returned this afternoon by the Coroner’s jury after investigating the killing. Carhart, who surrendered toethe police at once, declared he thought Callaway was a burglar. He said he and his wife returned to their apartment at late hour and Mrs. Car- hart saw a man coming out. of the room of their son. She called to her husband, who shot the man as he was climbing over a rear porch railing. The bullet struck Callaway over the heart, killing him almost instantly. Carhart said he took several friends from a club to their homes in his auto- mobile, but that Callaway was not one of the party. He added that he had re- tired when he heard his wife scream. “As I entered Louis’ room I saw a man making for the back purch,” he continued. ‘‘It appeared to me he had a pistol in his hand. I thought he was a burglar and firea [ did not know whom I had shot until the man was identified as Mr. Callaway.”’ Callaway was a brother of Maj. Frank E. Callaway, a Georgia attorney and president of the Atlanta Southern Asgso- ciation baseball club. He is said to have been a personal friend of Carhart and a Gary at the Mississippi River.

The prosecuting authorites and police of St. Louis have met an unexpected obstacle in their efforts to bring back to St. Louis Frank Sillick, also variously known as Charles Fisher, Kid Burke, Walter Mills and George Martin, who has been captured in New York after a chase of nearly seven years. Sillick snatched $1000 from Michael E, Hogan of 5564 Cabanne avenue at the banking rooms of the Mercantile Trust Co., April 6, 1908. Bertillion records at police headquarters show he is a thief of international reputation. The first intimation that there would from New York came when Detective Michael Callahan, who had been sent after him, wired that Sillick refused to come taq St. Louis, saying he had pleaded guilty to petit larceny and paid a fine Records Found in Court, Circuit Attorney Harvey had been looking up the records. The files in the Sillick cas2 were missing from the Cir- cuit attorney's c*fice, but Harvey found tliera.

Harvey's predecessor as Circuit Attorney, the case against Sillick on an indictmert cherging grand larceny had been rolle pressed by Jones, In erie" that Sillick might be brought to St. Louis and tried Harvey had Sil- lick re-indicted a week ago by the pres- ent grand jury. Callahan’s message as to Sillick’s as- sertion thet he had pleaded guilty to petit larceny greatly surprised Harvey, who made a further investigation of the records. Plea of Guilty .Found. On the docket in Judge Withrow’'s court he found an entry showing that on Sept. 20, 1912, Charles Burke had been permitted to plead guilty to a charge of petit larceny on an information fied by Jones and had been fined $100 and costs. The record showed Jones was rresent in court when this was done. Harvey looked up the petit larceny in- formation and found that Hogan was named as prosecuting witness, but that the information gave April 1@ as the date of the crime, though April 6 was the date on which Sillick snatched the money from Hogan. } If Sillick was in court on the day he rleaded guilty that fact escaped the at- tention of the police, as they then con- sidered hin: a fugitive from justice. Sillick was captured as he fled from the bank with Hogan’s money. After being indicted he jumped his $5000 bond, signed by Edward H. Hick- man of 3130 Bell‘avenue and F. J. Phil- lips of 1416 Blackstone: avenue. He failed to appear in court when his case was first called May 19, 1908. The State was never reimbursed on Sillick’s forfeiture of the bond as no property owned by the bondsmen couli be found. Clted as a Fugitive. As tending to show that the Charles Burke named as defendant in the petit larceny information was the same de- fendant as in the grand: larceny in- dictment it was set forth in the infor- mation that he had been a fugitive from justice since May 19, 1908. Former Circuit Attorney Jones, when seen by a Post-Dispatch reporter, said he did not clearly remember all the details as to the disposition of the case. He said he recommended that Burke be permitted to plead guilty, bechuse he was told Burke had a wife and several children -in New Jersey. The statement in the information that the crime was cimmitted April 16, instead of April 6, was a clerical error, the name Charles Burke instead of Frank Sillick in making the petit lar- ceny charge, Jones said he looked for the files In his office and could not find them. He knew that one of the names on the indictment was Charles Burke and he used that name. He did not notify the police of his inten- tion to accept a petit larceny plea, he said, as it had not been customary for the Circuit Attorney to notify them in such cases. As to the entering of a nolle prosequl in the grand larceny case on the last day ot his term, Jones said it was cus- tomary fer retiring Circuit Attorness tc go over the records when retiring from office and “clean up all the dead cases ”’ Harvey May Summon Jones. Circuit Attorney Harvey says he will niake a further investigation and prvub- ably summon Junes as a witness before the grana jury to explain his disposition of the case. : , Harvey has wired to Detective Calla- han advising him to consult District At- torney Whitman of New York as to the possibility of devising a legal way of bringing Sillick back to St. Louis.

Francis, Democratic member of the Housé of Delegates from the Ninth Ward, and five friends were re- leased from a charge of gambling by morning on a technicality, after Francis’ colleague, John R. McCarthy, a lawyer, and Democratic mem®er of the House from the Sixteenth Ward, had made an extended argument that the information was defective. The information charged that Francis and the other defendants engaged in a game of chance for money. McCarthy sajd it ought to have charged that they were playing checkers, shooting craps, playing poker and doing whatever the solice thought they were doing. The police report stated they were shooting craps. Assistant City Attorney Sadler insist- ed that the law required the city only te» charge that the defendants engaged ir, a game of. chance for money. Judge Sanders said he would hold that the information was. faulty and that the defendants could not legally be tried on it.

By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Secretary Bryan today invited Charlies M. Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel Co., to the State Department and gave him the views of the American Government on the building of submarines in this coun- try for European belligerents. Bryan declined to disclose what was the position of the American Govern- ment. He declared the question was not yet concluded, but “under considera- tion.’’ Schwab, who was accompanied by two assistants, also refused to dis- cuss the mission. “Mr. Schwab came,” said Bryan, “‘in response to our inquiry concerning the manufacture in this country of ships or materials for shipbuilding.” Recent reports tiat i.e Bethlehem Steel Co. had contracted to build sub- marines, which would be shipped abroad in sections, have been variously denied and partly confirmed.

It was believed, however, that the State Department e@esired to -congult with the steel company officials so there would be no violations of neutrality if contracts were taken. While the ex- port of munitions of war, such as guns, shells or ammunition, is not prohibited by the neutrality laws, the fitting out of warships or any armed expedition from American soll would be considered a violation, During the Russo-Japanese War, how- ever, an American firm built the parts of several submarines, consigned them to ita own agency in Russia and then sold them to the Russian Governmengé.

Phil- lips of the Standard Oil tanker, Wa- basha, which narrowly missed capture by the Emden in thé Straits of Malacca. The Wabasha flies the British flag. When seeking prizes the Emden would ask in English: “Have you seen the German cruiser Emden?’ “No,” would come the answer, disclos- ing the proximity of a merchantman. “Thank you,” would be Von Mueller’s reply. “We'll be alongside directly. Prepare for the worst.” While Capt. Phillips was at Calcutta the tale was told on the quays of how Von Mueller had nearly succeeded in beguiling the British commandant there into furnishing him with supplies. “This is the British cruiser Hamp- shire,” came a code message from the mouth of Hoogli River. “Send ts coal and provisions.” A barge was actually loaded and dis- patched, Capt. Phillips was told, and would have been delivered but for the arrival of an Italian merchantman, which sighted the Emden and brought word of Von Mueller’s presence. “Thank you for your courtesy,” he fiashed back when he learned that his ruse had been uncovered. “Hope to meet you later.

Algeria was already French. Half a century of labor by the .soldiers and the colonists had laid the foun- dation of the greatest of all Pench colonies. It now became prosperous, the seat of splendid cities, the cen- ter of that new France which ex- tends from the Mediterranean to th Congo. Even before 1880 it was provinces from Boena to the Mu- luya. 4 Tanis Was Italian Colony. But there remained Tunis, with the great naval base of Bizerta, with the fertile lands which had once been the granary of Rome, strewn with the most wonderful Roman ruins outside of Rome. To Tunis, too, Ital- ian emigrants were coming by the thousands, Tunis city had its Ita)- fan quarter, !w Italian banks and press. In the decade between 1879 and 1880 Tunis was in fact an Ital. ian colony in all but title. All this promise of a “greater a “restored Rome.”’ of the French plan to join Tunis to A\).- the German capital “with empty hands, but with Tunis in my pocket.” England, newly possessed of Cyprus, also assented, and in 1581, after a brief invasion, the Treaty of Bardo brought Tunis definitively within parent that France had inherited the’ title of Rome to all of the African \ geria and Wadington returned from | made of her acquisition of 1881. To- day Tunis is a model colony; rail- ‘roads and highways connect all the important cities. From the frontier of Tripoli to the Algerian line new industrial and agricultural develop- ment is visible. The olive groves s0 famous in antiquity have begun to reappear in lands held to be desert. Tunis has become a European town, a rival of Algiers, with splendid mod- ern buildings and parks. Sfax and Sousse have harbors and docks and Bizerta now rivals Toulon and com- mands the route from Maita to Gi- braltar. ' More than this. Tunis has received a French stamp. Italiane still out- number the. French two to one, but the proportion is annuswy :essening. French schools, a French press, are steadily exercising their influence. In another generation it is plain to per- ceive that Tunis will follow the ex- ample of Algeria and become, not quite French, but that French-Afri- ean thing which all travelers in Al- geria have recognized as a more en- ergetic, progressive race than those north of the Mediterranean. French possession of Morocco, too, if it can be maintained, insures a great new France from the Syrtes to the Pillars of Hercules, insures that France will remain a great Power and a world force, despite the slackening of her birth rate and the state of balance in the European condition. This, then, is the critical moment for French Africa. Italy, too, is the only conceivable rival who could sup- plant France in South Africa, and to North Africa the most glorious of Roman traditions beckons the Ital- fans. Twenty years ago such an op- Appetite Wil a Giood Digestion in Asia Minor. In sum, having to choose between the role of Rome and of Venice, the hatred and distrust of Austria have prevailed, and long before the great war opened it was plain that Ital- jans had set their face toward the near East and abandoned the dream of replacing France on the shores of Africa Minor. It is then safe to forecast that the latest bid of the Kaiser will be re- jected. Great Britain, France aad Russia will doubtless have to con- cede to Italy the right to hold Av- lona, to exercise dominant rights in Albania, to retain‘ Rhodes and the Dodeanese in the Egean, to recognize her reversionary interests in most of Dalmatia, to honor her claim to the Trentino and Trieste; but this price will not be excessive. No vital in- terest of any foe of Germany will be compromised by such concessions. AS a consequence, French suprem- acy in North Africa will be assured. For the critical years before. the French‘stamp is irrevocably set upon Algeria,- Tunis and Morocco, French occupation will be undisturbed, Al- ready there are a million Europeans in these lands, two-thirds cf them French citizens.

For this the whole world may well be glad. <A generation ago it was customary to sneer at French colo- nial methods, to forecast a French failure in Africa as the sequel of failures in Asia and America. But that time has passed. Today Algiers ranks with the finest of British co- lonial capitals in prosperity and sur- passes all in the charm which the French are able to impart to their cities at home and abroad. Three-quarters of a century ago a great Frenchman forecast that the future of France was ‘n Africa. The twentieth century has done much to confirm the prophecy. All the splen- did promise would be annulled if Italy listened to German promises and endeavored to create a new Al- sace-Lorraine on the Mediterranean. If ‘the temptation is great the wis- dom of Italian rejection is unmis- takable, and the profit for the whole world enduring.

r Mayor and 9 Members of the Council Are in Favor of Measure and Enactment of Law at an Early Date Is Assured; Upper Body May » Act Dec. 11. DELEGATES’ VOTE WAS 16 TO 11 a Possible for Law to Become Effective Before Last of Januz:-7 ‘and Condemna- tion Suit Can Be Ready by THat Time. The passage of the central parkway bill by the House of Delegates last night by a vote of 16 to 11, insures the enactment of the ordinance probably within three weeks. ; Mayor Kiel and nine members of the Coduncil are pledged supporters of the bill. Chairman Protzmann of the Coun- cil Public Iniprovements Committee will report the bill without delay after it reaches the committee next Tuesday. Councilmen Fletcher and Meehan, the other committeemen, have announced also that they will oppose delay in act- ing upon the measure, and it is pos- sible that the bill will be passed:at the third regular meeting of the Council, Dec. 11. Mayor Kiel could ‘not sign approval of the measure until 10 days after it reaches him, and it would not become effective until 30 days after approval, or abcut the end of January. City Counselor Baird will require about that length of time to prepare the con- demnation suit petition in which the names of all defendants in the 21 city blocks to be acquired must be stated. An official of the Title Guaranty Co. said today that his company, which the city employs for such ~work, will be able to supply the complete information about titles to all the property within 60 days. Blil Passes Without Debate. There was no debate at the House meeting last night when the parkway bill was placed on its final passage. Sev- eral members explained their votes in brief speeches,”- and Speaker Pro Tem McCarthy used the gavel to silence those in the audience who sought to ap- blaud the Delegates as they voted. Speaker Andrew Gazzolo Jr., who was clected Justice of the Peace last month, t‘ndered his resignation to the House at the opening of the meeting and did not cast a vote on the parkway bill. Gazzolo acted on the advice of City Ccunselor Baird, who ruled that the city charter did not sanction a city official] holding at the same time a State or an- cther municipal office. The action of the House removed the last doubt as to the fate of the bill, es. it was in the lower branch of the Assembly that the only opposition ex- isted. Many of the 11 delegates who voted against the bill frankly told their friends that it had their personal in- dorsement, but the opposition of con- stituents who did not want to pay spe- cial assessments if their property is in- cluded in the benefit district, moved them to vote against it. Roll Call on the Bill. The roll-call showed 10 of the ll Re- publican members voting for the Dill, and 6 of the !1@ Democratic members supported it. The vote was: Ayes— Delegates Brokaw, Defaa, Ebrecht, Ford, Grierson, Groeschel, Hall, Heigel, Klose, Klug, McCarthy, Monahan, Owen, Scully, Schwartz and Wyrick. Noes—Delegates Butler, Byrne, Fran- cis, Gallagher, Hoffner, Mefsner. Moog, Scholl, Singer, Stuart and Whalen. The House conducted three public hearings on the bill, at which every- one who desired to speak for or against it was heard. It called before it the Mayor, Cor: troller, City Counselor, President of the Public Service Board, members of the City Plan Commission, and a District Assessor. Comptroller Player advised that an ef- fort be made to ascertain the cost of the 21 blocks before the bill was acted upon, declaring that if it cost more than $6,000,000 or $8,000,000, it would be a pro- hjbitive undertaking from a financial! Standpoint, within the next few years. City Counselor Baird told the House that the passage of the bill was merely a preliminary step, and that if the cost proved to be prohibitive when ths con- demnation commissioners reported, the city was at liberty to dismiss its suit and abandon the project. “Hupp” Dealers Coming to St. Louix to Attend Convention.

Dudley of 4604 Wash- ington ‘boulevard filed an injunction suit in the Circuit Court today to prevent | Mrs. Martha Bielhen from closing the Dudley Hotel at 4145 Lindell boulevard. She also asks that Mrs. Bielhen be forbidden to exclude her from the hotel and that she be permitted to inspect the books. Mrs. Dudley in her petition says she sold the hotel to Mrs. Bielhen May 1, 1918, for $12,000. In part payment Mrs. Bielhen gave her $100 cash and a 34000 equity in property at 4004 Forest Park boulevard. The demaining $7900, Mrs. Dudley alleges, was to be paid at the rate of $100 a month and.there was a clause in the contract by which Mrs. Bielhen was to keep the hotel in opera- tion until the entire purchase price was paid. : Mrs. Bierhen, according to the peti- tion,’ has notified her guests that- she will close the hotel Dec. 15. Mrs. Dudley alleges that a part of the agreement was that she should at all times have free access to the hotel and the books. She alleges that Mrs. Biel- hen for some time has refused to permit hr to enter the hotel.

She didn't have to call a moving van, as she had no furniture. Edward Bokern, a real estate dealer at 1015 Chestnut street, at noon asked the police to eject the woman, who took rossession of the vacant house a month ago after obtaining the key at Bokern’s office. When policemen went to the house the unwelcome tenant was indignant. It was her home, she said, and they had no right.to invade it. She refused to tell more about herself than her name. She is about 45 years old. —_ ARM MUSCLE PUT IN LEG OF SENATOR KERN’S SON Boy, 14, Is Recovering From Remarkeble Operation to Cure Iniantile Paralvsis. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Senator John W.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Provisional President Gutierrez will enter Mexico City tomorrow and be instailed- in the National Palace there, according to of- ficial telegrams to the State Depart- ment today. Villa is at Tacuba, a suburb of Mex- ico City, where it is believed he con- to the State Department indicate that the two chiefs are working in harmony in support of Gutierrez. George C. Carothers, American con- sular agent with Villa, today reported. his arrival in Mexico City and will care for American interests with the Bra- zililan Minister and John R. Silliman. Latest dispatches from Tampico to the State Department say the Carranza forces have reoccupied Panuco, which had previously been in the hands of irresponsible bandits. The reports added that the Carranza garrison was maintaining order and had given guar- anteés to foreigners. A statement given out by the State De- partment last night, on the authority of its latest official advices from Mexico City, indicates that Gen. Zapata, whose troops still occupy the capital, not only is keeping order in the city, but is restoring property, seized from Americans and others by the Carran- zo. soldiers, to the owners. Gen. Villa, who entered Mexico City at the head of 25,000 men, remains in the suburbs, awaiting the arrival of Provisional President Gutierrez. Gen. Zapata, who also remained away from the capital part of the city, has gone to a neighboring city temporarily, but expected to return soon. A dispatch from Consul Silliman, sent Monday and received here yes- terday, says Zapata and his officers have been very accommodating to the representatives of the American Gov- ernment. The dairy of an American, a Mr. Hill, had been looted and in Sil- liman’s presence Zapata dictated an order commanding that the property; be returned and the guilty persons punished. The city is well policed and no po- litical arrests have been made. No one has been molested except when guilty of some aggravated offense. Banks and stores are resuming busi- ness and a total of 30,000 pesos was collected for hospitals on Thanksgyrv- ing Day. A strict censorship of the telegraph and cable lines is maintained, but dis- patches from American tives are not interfered with. ELKS MUST PAY TAXES, . SUPREME COURT HOLDS Lodge Property Would Have to Be Used Exclusively for Charity to Be Exempt. JEFFERSON CITY, Dec. 2.—Division No. 1 of the Supreme Court today af- firmed the decision of the St. Louis Circuit Court which held that the property of St. Louis Lodge, B. P. O. E., is subject to taxation. Edmund Koeln, collector of St. Louis, brought suit against the lodge on a tax bill issued for 1912. The Elks resisted payment of taxes on the ground that their lodge prop- erty was used for charitable purposes, and therefore is exempt from taxa- tion. The Court held that the property would not be exempt unless used “‘ex- clusively” for charity, and that such was not the case.

Crying “hard times’’ makes times harder. Lots of men are out of work because other men are afraid to do business. That sort of thing never lasts long, arid one way to help be rid of it is to join the great co-operative work of spreading Christmas joy throughout the community.

More Money Is Needed. More money must be contributed by the well-to-do this year than last year. The Post-Dispatch started the Fund this year with $1000. That is a good start, but much more is needed. Contributions are just beginning to come in.

The money spent is well spent that ac- complishes this. You who are of .the better-off, who have luxuries as well as Enecessities, can not afford to lose the opportunity of giving to the Christ- mas Festival Fund.

C, Harris, 8103 Belleview avenue, East St. Louis. A long-distance telephone message from Champaign today to the Post-Dis- patch said that Large remarked 4 few days ago, to a fellow student, that he had not “‘heard from home, or from her, either,”’ recently. Who was meant by “her,” Large’s friends at Champaign say they do not know. He made no calls in Champaign, and spent every night in study in his room. Monday night Large’s roommate, A. B. Little, saw him tear up a consider- able number of letters. He did not learn who wrote the letters. Large wrote no farewell note, but the English word ‘‘die” was found written at the end of a Greek exercise which he posed to have been has last school work. He was the son of the Rev. W. J.

Lambdin avenue, the western boundary of Chouteau place, is lined on the east- ern side with attractive residences oc- cupied by white people and on the western side is a negro settlement. Five years ago the School Board erected the Rumner High School for négroes at Cot- tage and Pendleton avenues, two blocks from Chouteau place, and its residents fear this stimulus may increase the negro population in the neighborhood, At a meeting last night at St. Peter's Lutheran Church, Warne and St. Louis avenues, committees were appointed to of the 1367 who have not yet signed a proposed contract prohibiting for 15 years the sale or rental of realty to negroes. One Signed in China, The old restriction expired Dec. 31, 1912, and the association has conducted a quiet campaign since then to renew the prohibition by a contract among the present lot owners. Agents of the as- sociation have obtained almost all of the signatures needed, although the owners were scattered over two hemispheres. Rev. M. E. Poland, who owns a house at 4209 St. Louis avenue, was signed up while a missionary at Nantung Chow, China. Many of the 29 yet to be signei are living in other parts of the United | States. The trustees of property owned in Chouteau place by churches of the Cath- olic, Presbyterian and Lutheran denomi- nations, have signed the new agreement. The contracts are mutual among the owners in each of the 16 city blocks in Chouteau place. The agreement has been entered into by all the owners in and two of them have been filed with the Recorder of Deeds. The Chouteau-Lindell Association had a bill introduced in the House of Dele- gates Nov. 10, by Delegate Edward A. Monahan of the Twentieth Ward, pro- hibiting negroes from moving into biocks now occupied entirely by whites. The bill is patterned after the recent Baltimore ordinance which has not yet been tested in court. To make it con- stitutional, its framers provide that whites shall not move into blocks occu- pied entirely by megroes, and permits either race to move into “mixed blocks,’’ in which both reside at the time of en- actment. The pending bill has not been reported by the Legislation Committee which has it in charge. : Richard T. Dunn, president of the Chouteau-Lindell Improvement Associa- tion, named the committees which have the matter in charge. Chouteau place was platted in 1898 by a corporation. It extends from Kennerly avenue on the south, to an alley north of Labadie ave- nue on the north, and from Prairie ave- nue on the east to Lambdin avenue on: the west. : TITANIC SURVIVORS DENIED RIGHT TO SUE ABROAD United States Court Says Man Cannot Bring Action for Damages in England. NEW YORK, Dec 2.—Litigation grow- ing out of the loss of the steamer Ti- tanic sunk by collision with an iceberg in. April, 1912, came up again in the United States District Court yesterday when Judge Hand denied an applica- tion of Frederick Seward, a survivor, to allow him to institute suit for $1376 in the English courts for loss of baggage and personal effects. In a previous action the Federal courts had limited the Hability of the owners of the Titanic and enjoined oth- er proceedings by the litigants to collect damages. The present suit was brought as a test to see if litigants bound by the injunction on the previous proceed- ings might. be allowed to invoke the courts abroad to collect for losses sus- tained.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Dec. 2—The general reserve fund of Arkansas, from which all current expenses are paid, is overdrawn almost $400,000 and the State is going into debt at the rate of $40,000 &-month, according to a statement yes- terday by John W. Crockett, State Treasurer. The general revenue funds contain only $272.75 to meet obligations of the 1913 Legislature alone, while war- rants of $391,542.63 have been issued since January, this year. There will be no means of relief, ac- cording to officials, until next July, when the annual payment of taxes will be made. The Legislature will convene Jan. 15, next, and this, it is said, will increase the deficit.

ADMIRAL MAHAN No Military Ceremony or Hon- orary Pallbearers, in Accord- ance With His Request. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Funeral serv- ices for Rear Admiral Alfred T. Mahan, Hospital here yesterday, will be. held from St. Thomas’ Episcopal Church at & o'clock this evening. In accordance with the Admiral’s expressed wish, the services will be of the simplest charac- ter. There will be no military cere- monies and no honorary pallbearers. The body will be taken by members of the family to Quogue, Long Island, where interment will be made tomorrow morv- ing, Admiral Mahan, who has been ac- claimed in naval circles as the ‘‘greatest modern writer on navel strategy,” was 74 years old. He came to Washington from his home in Quogue in early au- tumn and had planned to spend the win- ter in' Washington. Death was due to heart trouble. Surviving him are his widow, two daughters, Miss Helen and Ellen Mahan, and one son, L. EB. Mahan. Commodore Dennis H. Mahan, U. S. N., retired, now at the naval station, Tu- tuila, Samoa, is a brother. Overtaxed Self Studying War. Admiral Mahan had greatly overtaxed his strength in study of the European conflict and it is thought that the many long hours he devoted to following the naval operations of the belligerents probably caused the breakdown which U. 8.

DETROIT, Mich., Dec. 2.—An apprais- al of the properties of the Pere Mar- quette Railroad and the possibility of criminal proceedings by the Government against financiers whose names have been mentioned in connection with the cerporation’s troubles, were touched upon in connection with the affairs of Pere Marquette by the Interstate Com- merece Commission yesterday. The testi- mony of Clarence S. Sykes, auditor for the receivers of the railroad, threw little light upon the charges of stock- holders that so called high finance plunged the corporation into bankrupt- cy. At other hearings the stockholders testified that many millions of dollarg raised by bonds to purchase’ equip- ment, dropped from sight and that the equipment was never obtained. Seth Low for Strike Commission, WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Seth Low of New York is expected to be chairman of President Wilson’s new Colorado strike commission when that body meets here Dec. 12 to organize. Mrs. Sophia Kinkes of 4318 North Broadway was at her ironing board in the kitchen about 5:30 o’clock yesterday when she heard a noise in the front hall. With a flatiron in her hand she went to investigate. She found a man with a black mus- tache walking toward the sitting room and when she asked him what he want- ed he said ‘“‘Something to eat.’”’ Then he made a motion toward his hip pocket and Mrs. Kinkes threw the hot iron at him. It struck him in the face and he ran down the street. GOING home for Christmas? The folks won’t think you are prosperous unless you wear a diamond. Loftis Bros. Co. will trust you. 2d f!.. 808 N.

You may state that we will use every effort to prevent the game being played.” he Rolla players are threatened with suspension if they play. It has been alleged that the citizens of Rolla were back of the movement to have this game played. Dr. Baysinger, in this connection, stated that the citi- zens of Rolia are against the play- ing of the game, if it has not the sanction of the schools’ faculties. The Rolla authorities were bitterly opposed to the game on several rounds, among them being the fol- owing: That the players wanted to di- vide part of the money among ‘themselves as individuals. : That the request for the match did not come through regular channels. That the rule of the school is against post-season contests. That the members of the team could not afford to lose any fur- ther time from their studies. Following is the verbal petition laid before the faculty by W. W. his- kaddon, a member of the School of Mines eleven, and which was turned down by the faculty Nov. 30: 1.

To the Post-Dispatch. As to the Miner-C. B. C. football game, there have been several conflicting stories. Some have even asserted that the students are clamoring for the game, and that a majority of the business men were demanding it. This is not the case. The student body is ‘split’ over the game. Some are even bitterly opposed to it. A fair canvass of the whole student body shows it to be about equally divided and petitions, asking the faculty for the game, are meeting with considerable op- position, om ‘‘outside’’ appearances, the game will be the affair of three or four men, who are furnishing the neces- Sary guarantee, and it will not be backed by the student body. These men are not accommodating the students by arranging the game. ’ : The team broke training last Thursday, and one week will not repair the damage done by their ‘‘celebrating;”’ conse- , they will be in no condition for game.

That the team be allowed the use of the football parapher- nalia belonging to the School of Mines. In answer to this petition the fac- ulty passed the following motions: 1, In the sense of the faculty it is unwise to play the game, and ermission to do so is hereby enied. 2. That the faculty deny the request for the use of the foot- ball paraphernalia. (Signed.) F. W. BARLEY, Sec. Dr. Baysinger said to the Post-Dis- atch: ~““If this game is played Saturday it will be against the wishes of the fac- ulty and board of curators of the Mis- souri School of Mines. It will mean the Suspension of every player from Rolla who takes part in the contest. I do not think the Schoo] of Mines men will risk their scholastic good standing. “The request for a game with C. B, C. has never been made to the School of Mines faculty by the authorities of Christian Brothers ~ College. Lyman Donlin originally tried to arrange the match. He is not connected with C. B. C. The first official information we had that the game was desired came from Judge Nortoni, a member of the Board of Curators, who said he had been approached by Brother Lawrence. This was Monday. “Previously, when talk of the game was heard, we expressed our views on the possibility of playing the game. At the time the team was informed that the Rolla schedule was completed -s that no more games could be played. This is the rule in all colleges and ap- plies at the School of Mines. The rea- pt 3 of course, is that a schedule of eight games takes up enough time of the student, without adding HB so gagenore contests. Besides a precedent, once Started,. is likely to lead to other post- season games, in the future. “For these reasons the School of Mines faculty was opposed to the C. B. C, game, this year. However, the faculty put nothing in the way of the eleven comcanngges Sh Cc. B..C. contest for next season. e have nothing against the college. In fact, we have played many games with them in the past. They were on our schedule last year."’ “Was there anything to the report that the ineligibility of C. B. C. men caused the Rolla faculty opposition?”’ “Nothing in the world. In‘ fact, the School of Mines itself does not fol- low the strict eligibility rules laid down by the Valley Conference, owing to its limited student body. “The students’ last request, to play included a feature that would alone have killed it. This was that they be permitted to divide the receipts from the game among themselves. This would be sanctioning outright profes- sionalism which, of course, we could not countenance. “There is nothing about our re- fusal, we want it understood, that in any way reflects on C.

AGAINST FEDERALS Jersey City Franchise Will Be Moved to Brooklyn to Em- barrass the Wards. - NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—Plans to con- tinue the fight against the Federal League, among others, the proposal to transfer the Jersey Club to Brook- lyn, will be discussed at the annyal meeting here next week of the Na- tional and International leagues. Advance statements from club own- ers of the two leagues, who will at- tend the iy | annual winter baseball conference, indicate that peace nego- tiations between organized baseball and the so-called outlaw Federals, have been abandoned and that the fight will be resumed next season. he only obstacle in the way of transferring the Jersey City club of the International League to Brook- lyn lies in the ownership by Charles Ebbets and the McKeever brothers of the Brooklyn’ National League club, of the Newark franchise, which they wish to sell before consenting to assuming the joint responsibility of directing two teams on Ebbets Field in a campaign against tho Brooklyn Federals for patronage. It became known today that among the bidders for the Newark franchise is Arthur Irwin, scout for the New York American League team. Irwin is said to have the backing of an organization of Newark business men who seek control of the franchise to insure baseball in that city. : Fate of Fifty Players Depends on Decision of Commission Monday The decision of the Federal League to cut down its player limit to 20, during the season, means that be- tween 50 and 100 baseball players will be out of outlaw jobs and unable to land positions with Organized Base- ball teams this season, according to a number of estimates. These include Fed players let go during or after the 1913 season as well. What to do with these men is one of the questions that will come up at the meeting of the National Com- mission in New York Monday. It will probably be decided to readmit them to Organized Baseball, if they are good weggtog to land a position. This ruling is predicted in base- ball circles as being a wise move, cal- culated to enlist the sympathy of the Players’ Fraternity and perhaps of the minors. THREE TEAMS MAY USE RIVAL LEAGUE GROUNDS Although no arrangement has been reached between Schuyler P. Britton, president of the Cardinals, and the owners of the Browns’ park regard- ing the use of the American League baseball plant by the Nationals next season, conditions indicate that this deal will be closed before the winter ends. If it is, at least six big league teams will then be doubled u in three parks next year—Browns-Card- inals, Braves-Red Sox, Giants-Yan- kees. The owners of the Braves have announced that they have closed for the use of Fenway Park until next July, when they hope to have their own new grounds completed. * The New York Americans are sup- posed to be constructing grounds of their own, but work has for some time.been at a standstill, and it is considered probable the Yanks’ new park will not be completed. The Polo Grounds will probably continue the permanent home of both teams. The proposition to open Palm street through Robison Field is the factor that makes the Brittons’ evac- uation probable here. USUAL TRADE RUMORS PRECEDE LEAGUE MEET Talk of trades before the annual league meeting has, as usual, devel- oped into a lot of wind. Probably lit- tle will be done. That's the history of ante-meeting gossip regarding deals for piayers. McGraw is supposed to be willin to consider offers for Marquar Bescher, Grant, Snodgrass an Fromme. Brooklyn can swap Cutshaw and Reulbach, according /to report, Stallings says he will trade any layer on his team except his “bi hree” pitchers, Mgranviile, Evers an Schmidt and Connolly. Stallings omit- ted his only other real asset—Hank Gowdy—in this enumeration. Bresna- han has a lot_of old lamps to let \go for new ones, of proper candle power. The Pirates and the Reds haven't much to trade, while the Cardinals could ‘let slip some siibstitutes, but no first string men.

The Rolla faculty, in declining to permit the contest, is merely reiter- ating a position it took early in the controversy. C. B.

Why Not a State Tennis Body? ‘AWN tennis affairs in this State tional manner that might be improved if a State association were formed to control Missouri net matters. More intercity tournaments might thus be promoted, to the advantage of the game throughout the State. A system of annual ranking of players of Miss@ri according to thelr showing under the rules of the proposed body. might liend zest to each season’s campaign. w - e HE National Lawn Tennis Asso- f 3 ciation is seriously thinking of abandoning its annual ranking be- cause of the difficulty of getting ac- ‘tcurate returns. A State organization could create a lot of interest by issu- ing each year an authorized ‘“stand- ing” of the 25 best players, both men and women, in the commonwealth. Even if the National Association continues mentioning its “100 best” in the country, few Missourians make returns and consequently pass all but unnoticed. Roland Hoerr, Drummond Jones, Jack Cannon of Kansas City, are a few of the exceptions. Dartmouth Should Rank Second. ONG range critics of Eastern football affairs who rely merely upon reading of accounts of games and players for their informa- tion, will be slow to approve the view of the Eastern expert who named the Dartmouth eleven seventh in stand- ing among Pastern teams placin elevens like Cornell, Navy an Princeton above it. The showing of the Green ma- chine in the latter half of its sea- son indicates that it is amply able to take care of any eleven outside of Harvard. That seems to go, even for the Army and Yale, rinceton’s victory over Dartmouth, early in the season, was a fortunate one which, as events have turned out, would probably not be repeated at this season. “Big Three” a Memory. HE time when the mere name of Yale and Princeton granted those schools immunity from comparison with less well known institutions has gone. The passing seasons show more and more that both Yale and Princeton have enough to do to keep their records in- violate from defeat, where once. they thought it a disgrace to be scored on by any other eleven than a member of the big three. More time, money and attention to detail are given the “big three’’ today than probably any of the lesser teams they face. Considering the advantages they have in these respects, their su- perior showing is slight, if any. The football title of today, like the game itself, is far more open than it was eight years ago. : * * * One Question Still Unanswered. NE of the serious drawbacks to the continued existence of the Fed- eral League is the fact that it has as yet been unable to announce the up- building of a minor league system. Un- til it gets an Old Man's Home, or an Old Jokes’ home or a place where dis- cards can be shipped, it will be looked on suspiciously by first-class men. — it is conjectured that 100 players will this year be out of jobs as a result of the Federal League’s existence. While this is exaggeration, there still is left an unanswered question: How can the Feds take care of the surnjus? CCORDING to information from France, Georges Carpentier is not only not dead, but he is not in imme- diate danger of being where there’s a chance of his shuffling off—at least, not via the enemy's Busy Berthas. Instead the French Governmen Cc h ye! one el vil silitis.’’ His many friends in army cir- cles were perfectly willing that Carpentier should fight—but not on the firing line. On the Eve of a Mistake.

But never mind—we still have the Charley White-Frankie Callahan bout in store. nution of gate receipts,’ not an in- crease. No larger number of fans can spare either the time or the money to patronize eleven games. It is bad enough when circumstances. string out the struggle through seven or eight. In Boston the attendance &t cne last game of the Red Sox agains. tne Giants was only 17,000. Not even the home fans could stand the strain. This ia one of the matters that will be discussed at the next meeting of the National League set for Dec. 8 in New York. It is Ban Johnson’s idea and there- fore worthy of consideration. Bat Ban has his bone days, just like any other of us $25,000 a year boys. What to Do With C. Webb Murphy.

Medical School Lec- tures on Motherhood 1(GNORANCE OFTEN FATAL Physician Tells Women at Chil-' dren’s Hospital Danger of Lack of Attention. Dr. Henry Schwarz of 4397 Westmin- “Prenatal ster place, in a lecture on Care’ at the lecture hall of the Chil- dren’s Hospital, 400 North King’s high- way, yesterday afternoon, told about 75 women, most of whom came in their automobiles, that thousands of women and infants were losing their lives need- |lessly each year because of ignorance. His was one of the series of Tuesday afternoon lectures on Preventive Medi- cine which these women are attending. “In the Department of Agriculture at Washington pamphlets regarding health and disease of horses and cattle re- quire editions reaching the million mark but the demand for the pamphlet on Care’ has so far been quite Dr. Schwarz said. ‘The ex- istence of the Children’s Bureau at Washington, D. C., and its willingness to impart information regarding expect- ant mothers and on all matters of child’s welfare does not appear to be sufficiently known ” Pamphlets on Child Care. The pamphlet will be sent free of ex- pense to all who ask for it. The Chil- dren’s Bureau, in time, hopes to reach expectant mothers in all parts of the United States. This pamphlet gives de- tailed information on hygiene of moth- erhood; complications - arising from motherhood and how to avoid them, preparations for the mother, outfit for the baby and the care of the new baby. The Government's interest, Dr. Schwarz said, was aroused after the Census Bureau estimated that 300,000 babies under 1 year old died in 1912 in the United States. In the registration area, he said, more than 42 per cent of the infants dying under 1 year of age did not live to complete the first month of life. modest,’’ Dangers to the Child. He enumerated the principal dangers to-the child as broken limbs, mental de- ficiency and epilepsy and total blindness due to opthalmia neonatorum, a disease of the eye. Compared with these inju- ries which handicap the individual for life, and which fill e1reemosynary insti- tutions at great public expense, he said, the death of the baby is often a bless- ing ih disguise. Sucn injuries, he said, are usually due to failure to have med- ical attention for many months pre- ceding motherhood. Twenty-five per cent of the inmates of institutions for the blind, he said, have lost their sight from opthalmia neonatorum, which is contracted at birth. The disease, he said, is absolute- Jy preventable and can be checked in its early stages by one drop of a 2 per cent solution of silver nitrate in each eye. The propoganda for the “Twilight Sleep,’’ Dr. Schwarz said, has called universal attention to the fact that, in spite of all modern advances, a large number of women do ndt receive the protection against pain to which they are surely entitled, and in this respect, he said, this propoganda will undoubt- edly help to bring universal relief quicker than it would come otherwise. He cited the use and effects of various anesthetics. “We have as yet no adequate means of taking proper care of the large por- tion of our population,”’ he said, ‘“‘which is not poor enough to be entitled to the free use of obstetrical dispensaries, and ye: not rich enough to be able to af- ford the luxury of a trained nurse at $30 a week, and the high-priced accom- modations of the divisions of private hospitals. What is needed for this class of persons are hospital accommodations at a moderate price, including nursing and special attendance, and yet with room.’’ ' The department of obstetrics of the Washington University Medical School, of which Dr. Schwarz is chief, hopes to set an example in this respect when it moves into the .modern Women’s Hos- pital, which he said had been promised and which would be erected in connec- tion with the other buildings of the med- ical school. For the present his depart- ment will carry out its work in ample temporary quarters provided for it in the Barnes Hospital, in the dispensary building and in the laboratory buildings.

BUXTON & SKINNER PRINTING and STATIONERY CO. ON FOURTH ST.~NEAR OLIVE C POLICEMAN IS IN RGHT PLACE AND CATCHES BURGLAR Station Signal Light Calls Him; Marauder on Postoffice Roof, 6200 Delmar Avenue. A policeman was at the right place at the right time this morning. He cap- tured a burglar. It came about when Probationary Pa- trolman Bennett of the Page Boulevard District was a block south of Delmar boulevard on Skinker road at 12:15 a. m. and saw a red light at Delmar and Skinker blinking a signal. These lights are the familiar red bulbs on patrol boxes throughout the city, which, when burning, are a signal that the policeman on that beat is to com- municate with his stafion. When he answered it, he was informed that Dr. John R. Vaughan of 560A Skinker road had reported that a burs- lar was ‘on top of the one-story post- office station at 6200 Delmar boulevard and was attempting to enter the post- office through the = skylight. Dr. Vaughan had seen the burglar through his bathroom window, which overlooked the postoffice roof, and had telephoned to police headquarters, which relayed the message to the Page district. Bennett reached the roof of the post- office by the fire escape of an adjoining building. When he climbed on the roof he saw a man working with a rope which he had attached to the skylight, several slats of which had been cut. The rope reached to the ground. _ Bennett grabbed the man before he could slide from the roof and took him down the fire escape. At the bottom, the man attempted to escape, but Ben- nett caught him. He said he was Fred Walker, 38 years old, and that hetcame to St. Louis from Kansas City four days ago. He has been sleeping in the Municipal Lodging House. Pastor’s Auto Is Stolen. The Rev. Grand Robbins of 3008 Lucas avenue, pastor of the Union Methodist Episcopal Church, told the police his automobile was stolen from Westminster place and King’s highway between & a and 10 o’clock last night. ~~ Se — eS ee et ee = ee ee eee oneal > — > ’ Rk nu, s * The Greatest Piano Value in the oo a Be PV HEN musicians of the caliber of Moriz Rosenthal, al ae Maurice Moszkowski, Cecile Chaminade and /**~ Arthur Nikiseh put their stamp of approval on a piano- ged forte, its status as a truly exceptional instrument is permanently established.

While the nine 014 women residents of the St. Louis Home for the Aged, at 3422 Morgan street, are wondering whether they are to be turned out in the world with no place to go for care and shelter, energetic efforts are being made to raise funds in their behalf. Mrs. W. Frank Carter of 5717 Cates avenue, wife of the vice-president of the Mercantile Trust Co., has volunteered to organize a committee to solicit con- tributions. The management of the home believes that with $1000 in cash ‘t can make an arrangement by which the nine old women will be cared for in an- oth@r home for the remainder of their days. The home now not only has no cash, but is in debt about $600. It owes 11 months’ rent for tne Morgan street house and is in arrears 10 months with the salary of the matron, Mrs. Georgia James. There also are unpaid grocery and butcher bills. re Woman Paid for Care for Life. The worried old women at the home cannot understand why they face the prospect of being turned out. When they went into the home each paid a specific amount of money with the un- derstanding they were to be housed and fed for life. Those who had anything also agreed to turn over all their pos- sessions to the management of the home. The nine old women, their ages and the amounts they paid on entering the home, are: Sylvia M. Hunt, 68, $20); Louisa Frohman, 76, $400; Lurena Hol- lenbeck, 77, $200; Barbara Caravati, 90. $300: Sarah J. Mead, 63, $300; Johanna Koeppens, 72, $400; Cornela Sarli, 73, $400; Henrietta Kemper, 78, $400, and Magda- lena Achtelm, 87, $200. The home formerly was known as the Old Folks Sunshine Home, but Mrs. F. W. Baumhoff of 3501 Victor street, president of the Missouri division of the Sunshine Society, yesterday told a Post- Dispatch reporter that organization was not responsible for the home’s present plight. She believes the condition is due to lack of financial support by char- itably inclined persons, as the home always- depended in part on contribu- tions for its maintenance. Started Home in 1910. Mrs.. Baumhoff said she started the home in October, 1910, and ran it alone until December, 1910, when it was taken over by the Sunshine Society. Her rec- ollection is that at that time there were 10 residents, five of whom paid $200 each and one who paid $300. The other four, she sdid, had no money and were taken in as charity residents. In June; 1911, Mrs. Baumhoff resigned as president of the home. When she re- turned from a Sunshine convention in New York, she said, she discovered that a faction which had been opposed to her had elected a new Board of Directors and chosen Mrs. Henry. Fairback of 2550 North Grand avenue as president. In February, 1912, Mrs. Fairback and other directors of the home filed suit against Mrs. Baumhoff for an account- ing of the home's funds. After two auditing committees had gone over Mrs. Baumhoff’s books and reported them to be in good shape the suit was dropped. Mrs. Fairback meanwhile had resigned as president and was succeeded by Mrs. Charlies W. Talley of 3317 Vista av- enue. Turned Over %13090 to Home. Mrs. Baumhoff said that in July, 1911, she turned over to the home $1300, all the funds in her possession. Mrs. Fair- back today confirmed this, but said that when she resigned as president in Jan- uary, 1912, there remained in the treas- ury only $142.37. The money, she said, went for the legitimate expenses of maintaining the home and it was neces- sary to draw on the treasury because practically no contributions were re- ceived. : Mrs. Fairback said she believed a fund could be raised to put the nine old wom- en in other homes. New Organization Formed. In July, 1913, the Sunshine Society gave up the management of the home but the directors then serving remained_ on duty until another organization, the one now in charge of the home, was effectea. It was decided to incorporate the home. Mrs. Cc. E. Sommers of 4104A Easton avenue was elected president and Harry Cc. Barker, an attorney, wag chosen as chairman of the Board of, Trustees. The home’s funds had then been ex- hausted and the new management at- tempted to run it merely as a matter of charity and depended entirely on out- side contributions for its support.

Biggest West of the Mississippi LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Taxicab Rates in St. Louis. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Ih your issue of the 28th inst., there appears an editorial based upon an interview with Miss Alma Gluck. . The editorial states (I did not see an account of the interview), that Miss Gluck was required to pay $5 for taxicab service when the taximeter ‘tndicated that $2.50 was 4ue. The facts are, Miss Gluci:, with two other per- pons, engaged a limousine at Union Station and avere, along with several pieces of baggage, trans- norted-to the Jefferson Hotel. For the trip the meteP registered $1.10 and $1.50 was collected. The rate between Union Station and downtown hotels is 60 cents per passenger, and Miss Gluck and her companions were informed about the rate before they entered the car. This rate was inaugurated about two years ago at the urgent solicitation of the hotel managers, and I might ' add yields ‘us less revenue than the meter rate. * ‘. 4 * » € a ‘ ” this done. In this pafticular case the driver of the cab cour- teoushy n Miss Gluck’s party and suggested that he make inquiry of the hotel clerk as to the correctness of the charge; instead an officer was called to pass upon the dispute. He also informed the man that the customary charge between Union Station and downtown hotels was 50 cents per passenger. We feel as you do, that taxicab rates should be fixed by city ordinance. As a matter of fact, we have been trying for more than a year to have L. W. CHILDRESS, | President Columbia Taxicab Co. Free Antitoxin. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

To the Baitor of the Post-Dispatch. If they decide to tax the so-called benefited fine apartments and homes, Does this seem fair play? : Nearly all the property $150,000,000,000 of wealth in /this { 80 remote from our field of action as Australia is not extraordinary. A large percentage of our citizens have no clear appreciation of either. Two rules were embraced in the formula as given by President Monroe hiniself In defining One stated that the American continents were “not to be considered as subjects for future col- Onization by any Buropean ‘Power.” An attack weakening its enemy and furthering the issues of the war could not be presumed to subject Can- ada to German colonization. It is worth while to give the second rule in when the Holy Alliance sought to restore to Spain her former American possessions: . We owe it, therefore, to candor and. the amicable relationg between the United States and thosé.powers to declare that we should consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and safety. With the existing colonies and dependencies of any European power we have not interfered nor shall interfere. But with the governments that have declared their independence and maintained it and whose independence we have, on great consideration and just prin- ciples, acknowleged, we could not view any interposition for the purpose of oppressing them or in any manner controlling their des- tiny than as an unfriendly disposition to us. Mexican history -half-a century ago illustrates admirably the extent and limitations of the Mon- The doctrine was not infringed when, in December, 1861, England, Spain and France attacled Vera Cruz for causes that seemed te them to justify war.: But it was flouted when, in the February following, the other allies, hav- ing ceased operations, France attempted to es- tablish a.permanent hold on the country. France ultimately had to get out. : - As long as Canada declines to declare its inde- pendence and remains a “colony and dependency of a European Power,” it properly is not entitled to Monroe Doctrine immunity. But undoubtedly an attempt to transfer its ownership and per- manently possess it would be a very different and much graver step than a mere attack which would compel it to pay its part of the rcore In- curred by participation in a European war. Mr. Taft’s view is the view not only of the present but of all previous administrations. = — * i i A ALCHEMIST WADH. A belief that Festus Wade of St. Louis is an alchemist is becoming so persistent and widely current as to indicate that it will make a per- imanent addition in time to the South’s very interesting records. of folk lore. The success of Mr. Wade's plan for turning cotton into gold man who was*ofryistifies the cortention that it is something more than superstition. -. PROMOTING OLASS DISTINCTIONS. One of the most regrettable effects of the new passenger rates will be found in their inevitable promotion of class distinctions and Class con- sciousness. When plutocracy goes to Chicago it will, of course, take the train at the Union Sta- tion and pay its $7.50 like a man. But the plain people will cross the bridge to Granite City and take the same train at a cost of only $5.50. | And these class distinctions and this class con- sciousness will persist in-spite of the fact that a spurious plutocracy will occasionally be found paying. the $7.50 at the Union Station and pre- tending it is used to it, and a man who is far from the plain people will once in a while sneak frugally across the McKinley trolley bridge to get the benefit of the Granite City cut rate. = = i i a THE AMERICAN WAR PROPAGANDA. In theit campaign for fatter army and navy contracts, the interests which thrive by selling war supplies offer such arguments as this one: Only one of the great nations of the earth is more helpless to defend itself on land than the United States. This is China. We have not even such a mobile army as Belgium’s, while compared with Servia’s military egtab- lishment ours looks pitiabie. No political party from now on can fgnore this issue, and it is not a risky prediction that some political #arty will soon be making a national campaign on the issue of our un- . preparedness for trouble, The party silly epough tomake a national cam- paign on that issue will never get within gun- shot of triumph at the polls, but it will pretty ‘certainly put an end to this criminal war propa- ganda by forcing the peopl» te. nationalize the industry of making war munitions. . Interests which with every means of publicity at their command declare to the world that the Upited States is as defenseless.as China are guilty of slanderous falsehood, verging on treason. Luckily, no foreign government is so ill informed as to give credit to their absurd utterances; these are intended only to scare Americans into adopt- ing. a program of militarism, costly, needless and provocative of the very “‘trouble” which these interests pretend to be so eager to escape. i '- -- = VALUES THE PUBLIO ORHATES. “We do not sell property” was a sign in the musty New York office of John G. Wendel, who has just died a bachelor at the age of 80 in Cali- fornia. And they did not sell it. Astors borrowed from the Wendel family their famous rule for get- ting rich and keeping rich by holding on to New York real estate. | . According to John G. Wendel himself, his fam- ily began it 200 years ago. With the growth of the city any need for selling real estate to pro- vide an income.s00n passed. They never improved any of their property when they, could help it. ‘When any of it became essential to improvements for public benefit, as for a subway, tHey fiercely resisted. They just sat down and collected the ‘rents and waited for their real estate to increase in value. Bachelor Wendel, who would not even assume the responsibility for continuing the Wendel name, was thus enabled to die worth $50,- 900,000, not one dollar of which he had ’ a we ip / Ae A Sea y - “ * > . ees , ae ee £ r : ; ; .

Pags- on Canada made by Germany with the design of} ing the central parkway bill by a vote of 16 to 11, the majority has kept faith with the people and has put the feet of the city in the pathway of progress under the new charter. A majority of the Council is pledged to vote for the measure, so that the first step towards the realizing of plans for redeeming waste places and beautifying the city is assured. ‘Several improvement plans have been suggest- ed. Progress is in the air and citizens are eager for advance. But one step at atime. The start- ing of the parkway is the first great achieve ment. Others will follow when that is disposed of. ‘= ~~ Fr SOME RAILWAY FIGURES. Clifford Thorne of Iowa is president of the Na- tional Association of Railway Commissioners. He is also chairman of a committee selected from the Railway Commissions of 15 Western states to pro- test against an increase in Western freight rates which the railroads have asked the Interstate Commerce Commission to sanction. Mr. Thorne says, in substance: It is true, as the railways say, that the average rate per ton mile, 7.29 mills, is the same as it was 16 years ago. It has not risen with the advance in the cost of*railway sup- plies and labor. But the railroads’ net earn- ings, on the same rate charged 16 years ago, are $400,000,000 higher this year than they were 16 years ago. Improvements and econo- mies in operation have more than offset the higher cost of labor, taxes and suPplies. The 7.29 mill rate of 16 years ago is a more »,ProfitaBle rate than it was then. * Despite théir cry that they have no credit and can’t buy anything, the railroads bought $60,000,000 more supplies in the year ending July 31, 1913, and $9,000,000 more in the year ending July 81, 1914, than in any previous year. : They tell. the truth, but not the whole truth. They paint their situation far blacker than facts warrant, and sympathetic news- papers, eager to help on a return of prosperity, which they are told can best be done by al- lowing the railroads to levy a heavier tax on all productive industry, have created some popular sympathy for them. The truth is, when they have any real, un- encumbered security to offer, they can borrow more money, at lower rates, than any other great American industry. If they have heretofore borrowed up to the hilt, and have not used what they borrowed to create new values to support later loans for necessary extensions, that is their fault and should not be made the public’s misfortune. ) No one doubts that the controllers of most rail- roads have in fact, as Mr. Thorne suggests, wasted their substance in riotous living and now feel the sharp pinch of actual poverty. : Mr. Thorne certainly makes it clear there are two sides to this question, two interests involved, and quite as much possibility of doing an injustice to the pwhlic as of wronging the railroads. Being in a hole, now, they ask the public, which has paid fairly for past services, to help them out. If the public consents, to protect business, it has a right to the essurance that past offenses will not be repeated and that the present management js honest and economical.

On Thursday, Dec. 19, 11 men will be “turned off” simultaneously, on a specially constructed machine gallows, worked by the pulling of a single lever. If none of the trapdoors stick and none of the ropes break, it will be the most successful wholeggle state killing ever effected by a civilized community. ’ For three years Gov. Hunt has fought against capita]. punishmé@nt in Arizona. Time after time he has *eprieved condemned men, in the hope that either the Legislature would pass a law to do away with the death penalty, or that the people would abolish it through the referendum. But at the recent election, by a majority of 719, the voters decided that Arizona still holds to the ancient doctrine of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. There were 15 propositions put up to the vot- ers: with the one on capital punishment. And among them were amendments dealing with the liquor problem. Missouri’s experience has shown that, with so many questions before them at once, especially when they are a hodge-podge of positive and negative proposals, the popular ver- dict is apt to be a toss-up. : It is very doubtful if, brought to every Arizona voter as a question by itself, capital punishment would have been approved. However, the shock the State will receive on its coming Black Thufs- day may have the effect of strengthening the hands of Gov. Hunt and his supporters in a new effort to abolish the death penalty. = = wv vw MBASURES OF SUOCOESS. From the Richmond (Ind.) Palladium.

She stood gazing after them, and something drifted back to her, like 4 wonder if Dad wouldn’t be riled when he heard she had ‘stended the hosper- ae et ene of them: “Jes’ hotd the gourd while tality to a lot of bluecoats. For a long time she gazed down the road, till the last sound of a hoof-beat died away.

From a drawer in the cupboard the girl produced a man’s coat, hat and shoes, and with a “Hurry, Dan!’ passed them to him. “There, bless you, girl!’ He was al- ready at the door, “You say they went up the Clayton road? That's good, just as we planned. Now, I'll cut through by the mill, meet Granny with the horse, and tomorrow ‘morning will see me safe back to the lines. It’s early yet, and if I hurry, Granny will be able to get back to yo before dark.” .

Finally, amid the bird calls, the sough- ing of ithe wind, and other familiar sounds of nature, she detected the snap of twigs like someone coming through the grass. : Presently the bushes again parted, at the spot where the man had disappeared & few hours before, and she sprang for- ward to meet a tired little old woman who emerged therefrom. “Well, he’s off’ was her first greet- ing, and ‘“‘You’re sure they didn’t come back this way?” added the grandmother. “Positive,” answered the girl, “and ef them Yankees never see a rebel til! they ketch Dan, they’ll never see one.” (Copyright: Shortstory Pub.

Six split-bot- tom chairs ranged themselves in a straight line along the wall. In_ the cerner farthest from the fireplace stood the four-poster, and the trundle bed was drawn out, with its furnishings piled up to air. On the bed lay a’ form, covered, despite the heat of the day, clear to the chin, with.a heavy homespun blanket, and on top of that a gay green and yellow patchwork quilt. Buried deep in the chintz-covered pfl- low was a head incased in a red flannel night-cap, with the face turned to ths wall. The knees were drawn almost to the chin and the hands were hidden be- neath the cover. Dad’s “‘Hospertality.”’ _ , PPARENTLY satisfied, they turned and filed out, and Granny slept * on. As they came down the path, the girl clumsily advanced to meet them and conducted them along the “path to the lef,” to a spring that trickled out of the mountain side and formed a pool in a natural basin that had fashioned it- self among the rocks, half hidden by the grass. Stooping at one side, she groped ‘about a bit Im the shallow water, and brought forth a good-sized jug, secure- dy. fastened to the handle of which was a gourd dipper. Placing the jug. | the grass, she untied the dipper, ten¢ | to the nearest man and said: “EF /yer- self.” . ar, After each had held communion with _ the dipper a couple of times, she said to Py BEX a child plays truant, the Na- tional Compulsory Education League, recently in session at Detroit, wants to punish the parent. and still prevalent, idea was that tho boy who “played hookey” ought to be “larruped”’ soundly. The league wants to pass the matter on te the father and mother. Like all radical ideas, there is good and bad in this one. prosecute the paren Case might work a grievous and grotesque injustice without benefiting the ahild. Truancy may be traced in some cases to dereliction of duty on the part: of parents, just as crimé in children may be traced to faulty training. But it hap. pens on occasion that the child is in- corrigible, that all the parental guid- ance and discipline is wasted and that outside and expert assistance must be called in. The trouble with all panaceas is that they are too inelastic. In handling truancy, as in handling crime or vice or disease, the human equation may duly be considered in each separate case on its merits.

ILLY PIG and Mr. B off, but every few minutes Mr. Dog would see something to chase, and off he would go, leaving Billy Pig standing in the road, “If you think I am going to stand here in the road and wait for you,” said Billy Pig, “you are very much mis- Itaken. What fun do I get out of it, I should like to know? I think it is about time we asked somebody for something to eat,” said Billy Pig. “I never re- member going so —'t¥y without cake or pie or cookies.” 48, “How about a Mt “@heat or some big bones?”’ said Mr. L “TY do not care much for sweet stuf ‘y h! look, there gces a rabbit; come Om Billy Pig.” And away ran Mr. n, leaving peor Billy Pig standing’ alone in the road. But this time Billy Pig did not stand long; he ran, and he ran fast, too. By the time Mr. Dog reached the hole where the rabbit went in,. Billy Pig was oe gueti as little as you, Billy Pig, I would go m that hole and chase the ‘I rabbit out for you,” said Mr. Dog. “You might do as much for me.” ‘He might have something green to eat,” theaught Billy’ Pig, so he told Mr. Dog he \,ould go in a little way, and if it was not too dark he would see what he could do. UT what he meant by that was to see what he could do for himself. ®&. he crept up to the hole and poked in his ngse. Then he sniffed the air; it was something cooking, he was sure. Bilty Pig pulled out his head. “I'll go in,” he said, ‘but be sure you wait for Don't be afraid that I will go until you return,” said Mr. Dog, “but for goodness’ sake hurry and chase out that rabbit. I can hardly wait for some fvn.” Ne Billy Pig did not reply to this, but he put his head in again’ and soon he worked his way into the. hole. “TJ was sure I smelled stew cooking,” he said, as he walked into Mr. Rabbit's house, “and if there is anything I love. it is stew. I am on my vacation, and 1 am sure you will let me stay to din- ner.” : “as long as you have sent Mr. Dog along and are alone,” said Mr. Rabbit, “7 will be giad to have you take dinner with me.” Then Mr. Rabbit spread a cloth on the table and put .gn two bowls and two spoons, and then he put on two small dishes and two spoons. “Dessert,” thought Billy Pig. “I won- der what he has for dessert.” Billy Pig ate and ate of the stew, but he saved a place for the dessert that he felt was sure to come, and just as Mr. Rabbit went to get it and was bringing it to the table’ “Bow-wow-wow” came in a growling tone from the door of Mr, Rabbit’s house and so frightened him that he dropped the dish on the floor. B™ Billy Pig jumped ana saved most of it, for it was ice cream, and he had no thought of losing it, for any bark he ever heard. | “Oh! There is that tramp, Mr. Dog, again,” said Mr. Rabbit. “He may have come back for you. Go out and tell him to go away.” © teat Ve —_—[ EEE Do you have pancakes often enough?

McCARDELL Jarr Fears an Attack of “Psychological Mumps” 3 OW did you get rid of the Cack- leberry girls and the Blodgers and bs the Smunks ‘and all the rest of them, including Mr. Dogstory, the press agent?” asked Mrs. Jarr. “Of couse,” she went on, without waiting for an answer, ,*‘I don’t mind Mr. Dogstory so much, because he was awfully kind tous, giving us free theater tickets last winter, and yet I don’t know, we never got a cent from him for going to his old shows. But, still, I’m grateful!” “Are you grateful to Mr. Dogstory for giving you free ‘theater tickets last winter or are you grateful to Mr. Dinkston for ridding the house of ants—I mean visitors?” “Why, yes, of course! I¢n't that what I’m saying?’ replied Mrs. Jarr. “How did he do it? Do you know what I’m saying?” replied Mrs. Jarr. “How did he do it? Do you know What Clara Mudridge-Smith took me @own to the Hotel St. Croesus for? There was a pilot fish party. Do you know, I often think if Clara Mud- ridge hadn’t married your employer, rich old Mr. Smith, she would have been a pilot fish?” “I’m sure I’m greatly interested in pilot fish parties,” interrupted ‘Mr. Jarr, “and some day I hope' you will be able to tel] 1.e what they are and how the former-Miss Mudridge might have been a -pilot fish if she hadn't married a goldfish, but just at pres- ent”—— “Just at present you have me all on edge the way you wander from the subject when I want to hear how Mr. Dinkston—and although I never liked the man, still ‘handsome is that handsome does’—got rid of that crowd of visitors here! If you ‘would only keep to the subject I wish you WOULD tell me how he got rid of them! Although the Cackleberry girls are really not so bad if they weren’t - guch dreadful husband hunters. So I want to know how’ DID he get rid of _ them?” “He pretended to have the mumps, and he had an overcoat, or rather Wore an overcoat over his shoulders, > ; without his arms being in the sleeves, and, as he said, an overcoat worn that way has a strong psychological effect”—— “was it your overcoat? It must be burned! How long was Mr. Dink- Where are the Oh, dear, you are at Mrs. Du- have the sulphur candles? | gure the children were senberry’s. I'd rather Smunks than the mumps!” “In this case the mumps are no more “eontagious than the Smunks,” said Mr. Jarr soothingly. ‘“Dinkston only pre- ‘tended he had the mumps and if you had ‘sent him with his head crouched into the neck of his big overcoat and the sleeves dangling you would believe he hed a million dollars, appendicitis, the gift of prophecy—anything.

For years I tried to restore my gray hair to its natural color with the pre- pared dyes and stains, but none of them gave satisfaction and they were all expensive. I finally ran onto a simple recipe which I mixed at home that gives wonderful results. I gave the recipe, which is as follows, to a number of my friends, and they are all delighted with it. To 7 oz. of water add a small box of Barbo Com- pound, 1 oz. of bay rum and \% oz. of glycerine. Use every other day un- til the hair becomes the required shade, then every two weeks. It will not only darken the gray hair, but removes dandruff and scalp humors, and acts as a tonic to the hair. It is not sticky or greasy, does not rub off and does not color the scalp.

She had to stay at home from schoo! while being treated by the doctor, and nothing seemed to help her. I! saw Vinol advertised and decided to try it. I soon noticed an improve- ment, and after giving her four ‘bot- tles her cough is gone,-her strength has returned and she has a good ap- petite. We think there is nothing like Vinol.”—Mrs. M.

What Vinol did for this little girl it will do for others, for it is the heal- ing, curative, tissue building in- fluence of the medicinal elements of the extract of cod’s livers aided by the blood making, strengthening prop- erties of tonic iron which makes Vinol so successful in such cases, and children like to take Vinol be- cause it is pleasant, and it is much better for them than “cough medl- cines” which have no strengthening power, while Vinol builds up the body and throws off the cough.
