Near it the Bible land battles may begin in ee ee SH, “REST, PEACE AND REASSURANCE.” | Through the long period of anti-trust agitation the spokesmen of the great business interests of the country repeatedly said that btsiness could adjust itself to any conditions if it only knew what those conditions were to be. It now knows. The tariff is out of the way. A panic-proof banking and currency law has been enacted. The program of trust regulation has been completed. Every business man who wants to obey the law knows what the law means so far as he is con- cerned, for it has not only been interpreted re- peatedly by the United States Supreme Court but it has been ciarified by Congress. The period of suspense is over, and if business hogestly tries to conform to the law the period of agitation is not likely to be resumed. The stable conditions that trade and commerce and finance petiitioned for have been achieved so far as it is within the province of an administra- tion to achieve them. As the President says, “the road at last lies clear and firm.” Everything else depends upon the initiative and enterprise of the American business men. More than six years ago, in the midst of the temporary Roosevelt dictatorship, former. Presi- dent Cleveland wrote a letter In which he ex- pressed the belief that what the country most needed was “rest and peace and reassurance.” It has taker a long time to reach that goal, but we are there. A new era has begun, and {ft can con- tinue as long as every man charged with the re- sponsibility for the management of a great cor- poration remembers that “the public interest is part of his own interest.” = = * i i A CHICAGO DISCOVERY.

The British Parliament, hearing complaints of the competition of German wares In England, en- acted a law requiring German goods sold in En- gland to be labeled “Made in Germany.” The law- makers believed English men and women would patriotically give preference to English products. They did—when price and quality favored English } productgs otherwise they bought German goods— and German exports in certain lines to English markets rose rapidly. The Germans made use of the slogan in all their foreign trade—one more English idea they turned to their own benefit. They backed it with skill, shrewd salesmanship, thoroughly organized sea-and-rail transport, and made it a big winner. Their Government raii- ways co-operated by making lower rates from in- land factory cities down to the seaboard than for foreign competitive wares coming, from the sea- board to those inland cities. They made low rates for raw material brought from the seaboard to German factory centers. They co-ordinated their service with that of the German steamship lines, so that German manufacturers could quote promptly the exact rate from any German city to any other city on earth.

This law prohibits cities from requiring dairymen to submit their cattle to the tuberculin test—the test that shows wheth- jer cows have or have not tuberculosis, Milk from cows that have the “white plague” communi- cates its germs to persons who drink that milk. Very often, in such cases, the drinker “gets con- sumption” without knowing how he got it. This is particularly likely to be the case with bzcbies, who are the chief consumers, and who are obliged to trust to their parents in such matters. The di- rectors of a public health exhibition in Chicago say: : The Shurtleff law, forced on the State by the influence of big cattle and milk shippers, causes the death of thousands of Chicago babies yearly. While we are spending time, money and energy to combat disease, here is a law that keeps us from protecting our- selves against one of the most terrible forms of it. We know that one-fourth of the chil- dren under 16 that die of tuberculosis were infected by tainted milk. Isn’t this a fearful price for a community to pay to satisfy the greed of a few men? The law, of course, should be repealed at the earliest possible moment. The Illinois Dairy- men’s Association should meet in special session to demand its repeal. Ah mel COTTON SEED OIL IN OLEOMARGARINE. We have received a letter from G. L. McKay, secretary of the American Association of Gream- ery Butter Manufacturers. Mr. McKay challenges our statement that cotton seed oil is much used in making oleomargarine. He says it is used “only in the poorest and cheapest grades.” Dr. A.D. Marvin, chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States Department of Agri- culture, being queried on this subject, replied: “Of 94 formulas for oleomargarine on file with this bureau, 66 show cotton seed oil as an ingre- dient.” We are further informed, by men who should know, that cotton seed oil is an ingredient in fully two-thirds of the whole output of oleo- margarine. This fact explains cotton growers’ resentment of the Federal tax on oleo—a tax im- posed to give butter makers an unnatural com- petitive advantage. _ —-» “We will make also every effort to show that + # is the moral duty of all nations as well as their common material interest, to restore to Potand her freedom, FRANK B.

From Akaba, near which Turkish cavalry is re- ported, the Hedjaz Railway is only 60°miles dis- tant; its state of completion is not generally known, but German energy has no doubt pushed the work.

They can decide, possibly (which has nothing to do with the subject), which can kill the most. But even then, having spent a hundred thousand or two hundred -thousand men on each side and $40,000,000 a day to decide who can kill the most, nobody, except those who are dead, will be in any position to help. The dead will help because they will be through fighting. They will be quiet and strong and assured. They will call out reverence and love. That will help. But the living will not help. They will be helpless and useless because they will be filled with rage for 500 years—with the weakness and helplessness of rage. = > We must prepare ourselves in thought and action to make America the clearing house of all peoples. We will make our Capitol at Washing- ton a kind of temple to which the tired nations may come to think and pray. Then we shall save them, in their weariness and fear, from destroying themselves when they are too tired to destroy one another. . oa . e *. * Advice to Congress | ADVICE TO CONGRESS. Washington Post: Late in October the mem- bers of Congress left Washington and returned to their districts with a long record of speech and action. Today they return to Washington after having received the verdict of the people. Fifty-seven Democratic members of Congress will return to private life on March 4. A cor- responding number of Republicans will take their places in the House. The Democratic majority has been cyt down from 145-to 31. This is a warning to the Democratic party to “Stop, ‘look and Hsten.” It is a command that the party shall not plunge headlong on a course of experimental reform equivalent to an upheaval of commerce and business. It is a mandate from the people to their representatives, directing them tc go slowly, and to‘stick fast to that which is solid and good. With the world at war, with Mexico a boiling caldron, and With the finances of all countries ( upset, this is a time when Congress sbould put {aside any new experiments, and confine itself e. to strengthen the defensive position of the Unit- | Baten. aang! apeetin to “make a record” the Der y listo. strange. paste. s uf bringing our national defense up to some con- ‘ dition where it may reasonably be expected to defend this country in the hour of need are as strongly opposed to. militarism, to jingoism, to war as the Post or anyone else can be. They do not advocate war, but they do say that it is { the height of imbecility for this country to stand amidst the Powers of the world, taking part in the industrial and commercial competition game, in other words—and to have no chips with which to play when the “call” comes, That would mean laying down our hands and going out. Why should we do that? “IF WE ARE DEFENSELESS.” Philadelphia Record: The tirely right in telling Congressman Gardner that his proposed investigation of the nation’s. lack of preparation for War is “an unwise way of } handling the question.” Nothing can be more | certain than that. If we are defenseless, why ir ) the world should we advertise the fact in all its details? We ought to do what is necessary, but \‘keep as quiet about it as possible. The Pres...2nt told Mr. Gardner that he was “entirely in favor | of the fllest inquiry by the committees of Con- } gress, and that there were no facts in possession {of the executive department which were not at The commit- in which they are all engaged—to be playing in : } President is en- tees are the proper investigators. WHY FEAR AN INQUIRY? Detroit Free Press: Im reality, there is noth- ing even remotely militarist about the movement by Mr. Gardner and his supporters., They have ,3othing more drastic in mind than a request on behalf of the sovereign people for an inventory of the means for national defense. No blame is being laid prematurely upon anyone. There is no assumption ‘that any particular official is at fault. No program for the future is being urged. | Why, then, is the administration hostile? Why does a regime which hitherto has reveled in investigations balk at this one? Why is there an effort to cloud the issue? Does someone fear something? Or does the Government no longer recognize the right of the people to inquire, through their representatives into the way their affairs are being managed? WHAT WATTERSON SAYS. Louisville Courier-Journal: There have been Wars and wars. As far as history reached back- ward blood has been the single recourse of dis- eased .ambition, the only balm for wounded pride. There have been wars and wars; dynastic wars, religious wars, territorial wars; but never a war like this; heroism driven from the earth, mercy vanished from the heavens; individuality lost in brutish multitudes and death-dealing machinery; pity fled, generosity dead; in place of glory, the giuttony of greed and hate, the agencies of blind, unsparing destruction. Reflection stands aghast, pity appalled; yet there must be an end—it can- not last forever—and, when it is over—when mur- der has done its worst, when exhaustion hangs limp over barren fields and despair stares gaunt and silent into the cannon’s mouth, mayhap Thought will gtill hover about the scene and Reason whisper to those that survive its horrors; mayhap, at dead of night, the Christ shall steal through the shadows to fasten His spirit upon the ‘souls of men. Then, but not till then, our time will come. What shall be our, attitude? Shall we speak for civilization, shall it rise for the Christian re- ligion which we profess, standing uncovered to the sun in robes of living light, or shall we appear, like Mars, cap-a-ple, in full armor, the old dread specter of fury and force? Shall we say to Europe: “Fight no more’’—henceforth the world shall be } et el et ee ee i at peace and it shall be written over the portals of every people “they shall beat thejr swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shal] they learn war any more.” There is hope that something may come of it. Germany beaten--perhaps ground to.the dust even as Belgium is—will be, must be, disarmed. Then, , why’ not the rest? The debts will remain to be { paid. The men will be needed in the fields. But ; if to get a party issue in America a group of | \ baffled political leaders are permitted to Prus- |, sianize our army system under the plea-of nation- a! defense, iaying the foundations for-a militariat at Washington like that at Berlin, in the interest of corrupting murder mills and ambitious sol- diers, it will be but a question of time when what is happening there will happen here. In short and in fine, a question the people should begin to consider is, shall we fallin with Senator Lodge and Representative Gardner to worship .at the | shrine of Krupp, even to the footstool that holds | the Kaiser's feet, or follow the genius of the ( '‘ American republic up the steps to the throne of ( God? , AN ADEQUATE ARMY. \ ( Chicago Daily Journal: No one wants the ‘ United ‘States to forsake the paths of peace and ( { { take part in a race of armaments. No one is talking of conscription on this side of the water. But a great many of the soundest observers ‘in , our land believe—and The Journal agree with ' them—that this country needs a standing army of three corps, at least 100,000 men, enlisted : under a system that would send them back to | civil life as reservists as soon as they had learned the military trade. Such an army does no vio- lence to the democratic traditions of America, / i® would secure the land against invasion, and it need not cost appreciably more than our present inadequate force. ; WE ARE NOT MENAC ED. Preparedness means ; Louisville Evening Post: prepared from oyr own standpoint, considering ( our own condition. The European Powers will come out of this war prostrated. It wilh take any one of them 10 years to be a menace to the United States. TE It is not possible for Japan to transport across the Pacific any army that would be a menace to the coast. It is not possible for Germany to bring across the Atlantic, under any device, an army that. would in the slightest degree disturb our coast cities. The invasion of America by any great Power is a nightmare of men fit only for a lunatic asylum. We should keep our avmy safe and fine: we should make our navy effective. It is effective today; its effectiveness has been demonstrated. Our coast defenses are of the most modern type } and the men competent to speak declare that the guns of our coastwise defense have a longer range than those any navy gun can bring to bear upon them. The National Civic Federation has made a great blunder. It has been perverted from its. orig- inal foundations, as most of these pretentious or- ganizations with — -sounding names are in time perverted. ROOSEVELT BEGAN IT. Washington Herald: There is an overwhelm- ing demand for public enlightenment as to the actual éffectiveness of our army and navy. Do we need more battleships or more submarines or both? Do we need more soldiers or sailors or beth? Are these great arms of our national serv- ice really in a State of dry rot, as so many critics declare? We believe, and we have no hesitancy in say- ing so, that in dwelling: upon this subject, as he has with so much emphasis in recent weeks, Theodore Roosevelt has made some headway to- ward replacing himself in the esteem of his fel- low citizens aS a man with a great faculty for bringing out the right idea at the right time. Let our politicians take warning. te tl ti a i ee eee tO til att ait gin, site, ny AOA PD a Pie ne BAe aa a re Pt oy llr — 2 - * i al ¢ r pits ae we ail LLL LD r LOUIS Pt Posr. f-DISPATS Pe. pers. 3 oie ee ee Stooibe ~ ey am x ec =| nto con- «3 d char- , ete. foal that se ail for iti scared.— Obio — Jog ing ret a writer.

FOOD 1S VITAL PROBLEM Viscount Tajiri States Nation’s Hope Lies in Farm and Foreign Trade Reforms. titeteiesnenmntiieenanel Correspondence of the Associated Press. TOKIO, Nov. »«—Big business inter- ests of Japan, some of which have op- posed from the start the participation of Japan in the war, are wonderinz how Japan will be able te borrow needed money from now on. “The war may ke necessary for Japan from a political and ethical standpoint,” said a promi- aent banker to the correspondent of the Associated Press, “‘but I wonder if :t will be a good thing for business. More- over, I think it will be impossible for Japan to borrow money in Europe with- in the five or seven years following the close of the war." Japan, he continued, desired to go on with her work of commercial and financial development. The European money market being closed, bankers were asking themselves whether it would be possible to obtain loans in the United States. The business interests Were anxious to create closer and more extensive business relations with the | United States and to make the Pacific Ovean a sphere not only of peace but of greater commercial activity. It was evident, he said, that there existed no Japan today a powerful current of opin- ion in this direction which was op- posed to any consideration of loca! poli- tics or party strife interfering with such a trade and commercial develop-| sening here at $21 men. t ‘ } ’ ny Seed tee oh: ee * SO Poste oe % : li HT -.

Dr. Tajiri pointed out that the an- nual supply, of rice was deficient and was ma@e more so by the annual consumption of 20,000,000 bushels by the breweries for making the native drink called “sake.” In eating rice, much of which she imported, Japan was eating verily “the money of the usurer.” It would be a long time be- fore Japan became a creditor nation, and in addition to adopting the reme- dies of reorganization of commerce and industry and more extensive col- onization, Japan must readjust her cultivated land so as to insure an annual increase in the rice crops of at least 33,000,000 bushels. He de« clared: “If we go on importing the most necessary articles of food and export only luxuries and ornaments, we can- not bring about the desired change.” Much also could be done, he thinks, by exterminating injurious’ insects, which destroy 735,000,000 bushels of rice every year. Improved methods wuld increase crops in Hokkaido, l.orea and Formosa. In the South two crops a year could easily be raised. Agriculteral Reforms Needed. “What Japan has to do is to make agriculture the main vocation of the people. Let her become as successful a commercial and industrial people as she may, yet she should never for- gct that without agriculture there is no hope for her as a nation. Agricui- tural reforms constitute the best policy for promoting national econ- omy. It is the ill-considered notion that industry rather than agriculture should be the foundation of national economy that kad so many young men of Japan to forsake the land and wander to the cities. “Another nécessary reform relates to foreign trade. Instead of import- ing necessities and exporting !ux- vries, Japan's goal should be to ex- port the necessities. She should learn to grow her own cotton, as she ia attempting to do in Korea.” In conclusion, Viscount Tajiri warns his fellow countrymen thus: - “Japan needs to be careful to guard against the Western tendency t@ run after ornament and to bé reek of the moré practical thiage Gf if the substance and meaning @f * The foundation of national ge then went on to imp taking the right and natural course.” Biack Fox PORT AAS ) debtor nation.

SAYS SULLIVAN'S COUSIN SPOKE OF MINISTER'S “BIT” Diplomat Was to Get Rake- ~ off on All Dominican Con- tracts According to Kins- man’s. Statement as De- tailed in Affidavit. MANN TELLS HOW, HE WAS REMOVED Ousting of Public Works Of- ficial Followed Transfer- ance of Island Funds to Bank Controlled by Politi- cal Backer of Legate. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatc®. NEW .YORK, Dec. 12.—The World to- day printed another installment of its charges against James Mark Sullivan, American Minister to Santo Domingo, whose office is now being investigated jointly by the State and War Depart- ments at the direction of President WiI- son. Sullivan has stated that he courted an investigation. r Minister Sullivan, it is charged, was appointed to the Dominican post through ‘the efforts of William C. Beer, a banker with interests on the island; that he is unfit and that hé uas used his office to get contracts for his friends and that he has especially favored the Beers bank, the Banco Nacional of San Do- mingo. James L. Bryne of Boston was super- intendent of construction .for Moore & Co., Boston capitalists, who have built several waterworks and light plants in Sdnto Domingo. Bryne’s affidavit as to what Timothy J. Sullivan, @ cousin of the Minister, said in Santo Domingo is in possession of the World, together with. other affidavits of similar tenor. Mr. Bryne’s statement under oath is in part as: follows: x , ‘IT was living in Puerto Plata with my family in October, 1918, when Timothy J. Sullivan arrived from Santo Domin- zo City to build a temporary bridge. He told me that he had come to Santo Do- mingo to handle the contracts for build- ing railroads and highways and other public improvements for the Dominican Government; that he had come there at the request of his cousin, Minister Sul- livan, and that definite arrangements had been made before he left his home jin Springfield, Mass.; that the arrange- ment for his employment had been put through by Minister Sullivan, and that the contractor already had been se- lected. “Got His Bit.” “TI told Sullivan that I could not see how they could hope or expect to carry through any such scheme, in view of the fact that ence the publ: works were openei up there woul] be many contractinz concerns bidding for the business. Sullivan said that the competition would not make any difference for the reason that no money could become _ available for this work without the approval’ of Minister Sullivan, and that the ap- proval of the American: Minister would not be given to the expendi- ture of any money for Dominican public improvements unless this con- tractor was to get the work. “Timothy J. Sullivan said that his cousin, the Minister, was to receive a percentage of the profits from the contracts thrown to his man, and ‘|that he (Tim Sullivan) was in Santo Domingo to see that the Minister, to quote Sullivan’s own expression, “got his bit.” “Would Remove Vick.’ “When I suggested to Tim Sulli- van the possible difficulties in carry- ing out their scheme as he had out- lined it to me, he said that the only person who seemed disposed to stand in their way was. Walter W. Vick, Receiver-General of Dominican Cus- toms, and that Vick did not give them any concern because the Minister would bring about Vick’s removal if he proved to be an obstruétion.” ' For 12 months a circumstantial state- ment of the activities of Sullivan in behalf of the Banco Nacional, imme- diately after his arrival at Santo Do- mingo as American Minister, has been in the possession of the State Depart- ment at Washington. It was presented by John L. Mann, who has stood in the way of Sullivan’s friends, and » whose removal as American Director of the Dominican Department of Public Works came seven weeks. after. Sulli- van's. arrival. In 19088 Mann went to Santo Domingo as Director of the Irrigation Service at Monte Cristi. Later he became en- gineer in charge of the Northern Raill- way and then Director-General of Pub- lic Works. His contract with the Do- minican Government dfd not expire un- til March 21, 1915, Its termination with- out just cause was made the basis of a formal protest to Secretary Bryan. Mann’s Statement. In that statement submitted a year ago Mann set forth various activities of the Banco Nacional and stated that ‘“‘un- til the arrival of Sullivan the Domin- ican Government had been frankly hos- tile of the Banco Nacional. Mann's statement continues: “T. J. Sullivan, a cousin of Minister Sullivan, showed great interest in the Department of Public Works. He went yao far as to state that he (Sullivan) would have a job’ of Chief of Public Works ‘if he wanted it,’: and that he bed come down to look the situation over. “T. J. Sullivan's family, or a port of it, later joined him in Santo Do- mingo, staying at the legation until the arrival of James K. McGuire of New York. A. Mr. O'Neill, a brother- in-law of James M, Sullivan, also ar- rived with his family, also, staying at the legation until Mr. McGuire's arrival. } | ry “O'Nefll stated on the voyage down Monday Great Undespeias Sale of COATS | 1000 Coats, Actual Values Up to $30, (4th Fleor) in One Mammoth Group, Choice for _ (4th Floor) sia ee fei bib revs a has ae iB | Vm .

The writer replied that he would submit the matter to his official superior, the Minister of Public Works. Bank im Need of Money. “On the following day, Oct. 6, the Banco Nacional wag in very narrow straits, being unable to cash checks drawn on it for a total of about $1700. About 4 or 5 o’clock the same afternoon Sullivan and Mitchell, pres- ident of the bank, called on the Min- ister of Finance, stating that the Department of Public Works had $50,- 000 in cash on hand and insisted on having it immediately deposited with the Banco Nacional, To this the Min- ister of Finance replied that the De- partment had no such cash balance, Sullivan thereupon insisting that the writer be called up and interrogated. Mr. Sullivan’s impression was prob- ably due to his misunderstanding of the writer’s statement that the De- partment had made advances for car- rying on work, amounting in 4ll about $50,000.” At this point the Mann statement comes to its most extraordinary chap- ter. “On the same day (Oct. 6),” it says, “the writer regeived the follow- ing letter: “Mr. Director General of Pub- lic Works, City. “Sir: I advise you that on and after this date your office will please deposit in the Banco Na- cfonal de Santo Domingo the ac- Just South of Busy Bee N - fe The Values Now Offered Will Make Monday Our Biggest Selling Day TREMENDOUS REDUCTIONS ‘COATS and SUITS 7° COATS 600 New Winter Coats, Divided Into Two Great Lots—Most of Them Less Than Half Price rey Values Up to AZ z Vsieuw wie Values Up to $55.00 | 7 7 Fur fabrics, seal plush, fine sibelines, white chinchillas, corduroy and hroadcloths; some fur trimmed; all colors and sizes.

TOPEKA, Kan., De¢. 12.—The value of all livestock and field crops produced in Kansas in 1914 was $638,253,206, or $58,- 600,000 greater than in any other year, according to the report of J. C. Mohler, Secretary of the State Board of Agri- culture, today. The State’s previous high record was made in 1912. The value of the field crops produced this year was placed at $279,971,925, or $52,000,000 in excess *of the previous record. Wheat, according to the report, led all cther crops, with a valuation of more than $151,000,000. The year’s corn yield was valued at $59,000,000, oats, $17,000,000, and hay, $18,000,000. This valuation would mean $1500 for every farm in the State. Corn is the only crop not up to the standard.

PARADES ALL OVER LAND Demonstrations Culminate in Great Afternoon Gathering in Tokio Park. ——————— NEW YORK, Dec. 11.—A. F. Clark of Dover, Del., who had ‘been travel- ling in Japan, was a witness just before sailing for home of the cele- bration of the capture by the Japa nese of the German stronghold at Tsingtau in China. His description of the picturesque demonstrations, written for the World, follows: YOKAHAMA, Japan, Nov. 11.—At the news of the fall of Tsingtau this whole nation literally sang with rejoicing. Never before have I seen such demon- strations as those of these past few days and nights. Every city and hamlet from one end: of the country to the other has had at least one lantern pro-. cession at night and another processioi Curing the day, and in the larger cities there has been one every night. They all culminated this afternoon at an enormous gathering in Hibiya Park, To kio, when representatives of the Em- peror and many members of the diplo- matic corps delivered addresses. Except for their costumes the people lcoked more like a Western gathering than one typically Japanese, for the formal exercises were conducted as sim- ilar programs are in Europe and Amer- ica, but what the first part lacked in brilliance of color was more than made up by the second part, when the whole park w thrown open to the public. Then all that is gay in Japanese life came to the front, as there were prob- ably 18,000 to 20,000 persons present. Only one who has.seen great crowds in the oarks of Japan can tmagine what it looked like. One only regretted that this is not the cherry blossom season to 1ake the setting perfect. 12,000 in Procession. I wish it were possible to photograph the lantern processions for 2u, for they make a picture too wien for de- scription. We saw the first one at Nagasaki. Probably there were 10,000 or 12,000 people in it,. for it took several hours to pass, and the Japanese are fast walkers. Ordinarily all these towns are poorly lighted, but from our launch we saw a blaze of light that extended far more than a mile along the water front, and when we had landed that same mile was filled again and again with more marchers. The light came from tiny saper lanterns which every marcher had. These are carried at the end of a stick ana are held aloft as our torches are held in political parades. Some of them swing loose from the end of the stick, but more often they are fastened, coolie-fashion, at both ends. You can imagine how many of these tiny lanterns it would take to make a light that conld without exaggeration be called a ‘‘blaze.’’ Instead of march- ing in ‘‘open order’’ as we go, the Jap- anese crowd as close together as pos- sible, and by putting sometimes as many lay eight persons abreast the effect is striking. From the water the effect was like a huge electric sign bobbing up and down. Many fancy costumes were in evi- dence, but the bulk of the display was in a comic vein. The characters ranged all the way from a German prisoner of var to a 30-foot battleship. In fact, the weapons of warfare were more numer- our than any other exhibit. All of them were made of flowers, chrysan- themums predominating at this time of year. One fellow was seen struggling along under a floral sword large enough |. for the use of Mars. Quaint Floral Figures. A huge fish appeared without any ap- parent reason. One very fetching scheme was made of three 6-foot ladders fash- ioned into a triangle, each ladder, sides and rungs wrapped with paper and dec- orated with flowers. The coolies who bore the various pieces were also in eos- tume. A striking fact of the various de- signs ‘was their simplicity, all of them heing strictly Japanese in their concep- tion and execution. You know the Japanese never place more than three blossoms in a vase for home decoration. The scheme of these fancy pieces seemed t6 me to be built along those same lines. Like most possessions in Japan, these all starte@ at the Shinto temples. They begin about dark and close when all the. temples of the town have been visited. This takes two to four hours, depending on the size of the town: but, naturally, stragelers can be seen on the streets | much later. We saw many such at Nag- | asaki just as our train was leaving at midnight. At the smaller places, such as Miya- jima, the shrine island on the beautiful inland Sea, only a few hundred people marched. But the same ideas and the Same spirit seemed to pervade in these places as in the larger towns. We saw also a part of the processions in Kyoto, Yokohama and Tokio, and while each had its individual characteristics al! had the same central] idea. Houses Decorated With Paper. In Yokohama the street knuwn to for- eigners as Theater street was the cen- All the houses for blocks are decorated with colored paper, flowers and flags. For the great cele- bration this afternoon additional lan- terns have been added, so that the street is a veritable fairy land, even in the day time. There is nothing: solemn about the little brown people at any time, and at stich times as this they enter with a zest that is marvelous to us: but I saw no rowdyism. All the people in the Lrocessions keep up a continual shout wf “‘Banzai' Banzai!’’—the JApanese corresponding most nearly with our “Hurrah!” A large section of both the night and jiday processions was made up of school Picturesque, | & hildren. of scho You can always. see a troupe in the oi children in Japan.

To this operator he dictates, as if read- ing from the dispatch just received, & jubilant announcement of.a brilliant ; erman victory. This “fake” telegram! m the front instantly is placed on the wires for transmission to Berlin and thence by wireless to other world capitals. Having accomplished this feat of falsifying the news,-the War Lord complacently dismisses his attendant of- ficers and Wes down to sleep. ‘Then comes to him, in his dreams, an unwelcome visitor tn the person of King Death, his ally, whose fleshless lips give utterance to words of gloat- “Ing congratulation because of the rich harvest of battle-slain thousands whom the War Lord’s madness is sending io Death’s domain.

Filled with horror and indigna- tion that such all-leveling Soctialis- fic conditions should prevail in the realms of Death, and haughtily re- senting at the same time the inso- lence of Death in daring to seat him- self in the royal presence, the War Lord demands a greater considera- tion for the majesty of his.own mor- tal body in the event that it is claimed by Death. The grewsome reaper, however, laughs. at the ap- palled Emperor and, again mocking- ly congratulating him upon his pre- eminence as-a wholesale murderer, vanishes from the scene. The last eurtain falls as the Emperor, awak- ing, calls tremblingly for his’ guards, the note of dread-panic in his voice. It is gaid that all London is crowd- ing the Palladium to see “The War Lord's Dream,” which thus so start- lingly spotlights “the tragic come- dian who has set all Europe ablaze,” as one of the play’s reviewers char- acterizes the Kaiser in his comments. upon the production. So prosperous has been this offer- ing at the Palladium, indeed, and so great *,6 the crowds attending the London muvic halls, where war-time songs «44 allitary playlets have the right .+ way, that David Lioyd George, @hancellor of the British Exchequer, now urges the levying of a tax of’a half-penny a ticket on all tickets to places of amusement. Here, however, the managers of the legitimate theaters interpose a ‘Strenuous protest. They claim that .ondon playhouses are having a hard enough time as matters now stand. Eeveatng weriC?niances virtually have been discontinued. The daily matinees are none too largely attended. Many theaters are_paying exorbitant rents.

They even contend that, instead of placing an additional bur- den upon the theaters, the Govern- ment should ‘make them’a grant in- stead, remembering .that they have rendered yeoman service in stimulat- ing the patriotic spirit necessary to insure voluntaty enlistment in the British army and, furthermore, that dramatic entertainments exert a beneficent influence‘in diminishing the prevailing atmosphere of gloom created by the biggest and bloodiest war known in the world’s history. Here the matter stands. There is a {strong likelihood that the tax levy will be authorized. Nearly everything else that can be taxed already has felt the war-time burden. London theaters are next in line to “ante up and look pleasant,” as a poker-player would say. Especially does this proposed amuse- ment tax seem justified when the truth is emphasized that the Palladium is not the only London “hall” directly profit- ing by the handling of war themes for the public’s entertainment. A second case in point is that of the London Hippodrome, where a new revue entitled “Business as Usual’ has scored a popular success and is playing to crowded houses. Here the lighter aspect of war is seen. The story told in a spirit of musical-farce is more or of certain English types and conditions of mind created by the war, notable among these examples being that of an excited suburban gentleman who, pro- foundly apprehensive or a German in- vasion of England, frantically devotes himself to the task of fortifying his house and grounds at Tooting, deter- mined upon resisting the Teutons in a little private war of his own, if the worst comes to the worst. Another laugh-provoker is the scene of the as- sembling of a war-relief sewing party where, with a seeming of the utmost "patriotic fervor, the good tadies vigor- ously fall to work making thousands of pen-wipers for the British troops at the front. This revue also has its serious side, however. Oné of its impressive stage pictures shows a peaceful harvest field in France, with happy peasants singing as they work. Suddenly, following a peal of thunder and the ominous red- dening of the skies in a sinister glare symbolizing the unexpected outbreak of hostilities, the French rledly abandon their task of tilling their ‘native sofl and the harvest fleld then is LORENCE FISHER _in THE SILENT VOICE they } naval and army less in the nature of a laughing satireniption of the great armies in action. peasants hur-} CRETE.

Punch’s cartoons of Kaiser Wilhelm also constitute a feature of this Hip- podrome entertainment, being presehted in a series of living pictures strikingly faithful to the original drawings.

SKINNER in ,.“The_ Silent Voice.” Olympic. New drama by Jules Eckert Goodman, ‘telling a. story of spiritual uplift in so unusual a form that it is described as being “one ol the most distinctive pieces of dram- atic writing ever done in this coun- try.” It is based upon a brief tale by Gouveneur Morris that apSeared in a magazine some two years ago, In this remarkable play Otis Skinner has the role of Montgomery Starr, a wealthy musical genius who, just prior to. the play’s opening, has been stricken with auditory apoplexy, causing total deafness. This saddens and somewhat embitters him, but, although .middle- aged, he marries a young wife. The in- evitable third party of “the eternal triangle’’ comes between the two. Mis- erable and despairing. Starr rails at fate and all but curses his Creator. Sud- denly a new light illumines his outlook on life. By a strange art he has ac- quired he is enabled to discern the se- erets of lives less happy than his own. His wealth and his generous soul impel him to help these more unfortunate ones. As the story moves onward it brings to Montgomery Starr and his wife, now drifted apart, a sign. that awakens them to the corstiousness of their true love, cach for the other. Playwright Goodman’s treatment of this theme is said to be interesting far out of the ordinary. It is asserted that Otis Skinner plays the role of Mont- gomery Starr: with convincing power and sympathy-compelling fidelity to the fing essence of the character. ceives an artistic production at Charles Frohman’s hands. The supporting com- pany includes Mrs. Otis Skinner, re- turning to the stage after an absence of several years; Florence Fisher, a tormer St. Louisan who has won de. served distinction as an actress; Eu genie Woodward, Owen Meech, George jaul, Wade Boteler, Harry Sothern, Es- ther Cornell, Walter Scott, Winona Den- nison, Philip Leigh, Ruth Farnum and others. “DAMAGED GOODS.” Shubert. Re- turn engagement of Eugene Brieux’'s widely discussed play, its action revolv- ing around the figure of a young man who is suffering from a terrible blood taint. He is engaged to be married and. aithough forbidden by the physician whom he consults, he does marry. The dreadful consequences of his selfish fo! lv are startlingly shown. It is urged in defense of the play that the neede'l Icsson which it teaches justifies its rresentation as a playhouse offering. The leading role of George Dupont the young husband, is played by Reg- inald C. Knorr, said to be favorably known in Eastern cities. Assisting him will be seen Louis Hall as the doctor.

St. Louis society is looking forward with the liveliest interest to the great college concert by the Harvard Glee, Mandolin and Banjo Clubs at the Odeon on Thursday evening, Dec. 31, and, in addition to a brilliant assem- blage on that occasion, a series of not- able social entertainments will be given in honor of the Harvard visitors.

Markham, Hugh Mc- Kittrick Jones, John D, ¥Filley, S, I Swarts, Robert Abeles, Samuel W. Tor- dyce Jr., Mrs. Louis Chauvenet, George Steedman (two boxes) and Robert Nel- on.

Among the interesting figures consti- tuting the present personnel of the Har- vard musical clubs is Lionel de Jersey Harvard, a direct descendant of the John Harvard who founded Harvard University in 1636. Young Harvard made many friends here*during the last St. Louis visit of the Harvard - clubs three years ago. . He now is a Harvard senior, and it is a remarkable fact that he is the only Harvard ever enrolled as a member of the famous university } bearing his family’s name. .

= '. LOUIS. POST. DISPATCH. ES SS ae a nn |STARCK’S Great “Collection” PIANO SALE BELGIUM DENEE SECRET TREATY WITH ENGLAND Minister to Washington Replies to German Charge of Sur- _. tender of Neutrality. A. Havenith, the Belgian Minister at Washington, has sent to Maro Seguin, Belgian Consul in St. Louis, a state- ment on the controversy growing out of the violation of the neutrality of Bel- gium by Germany. The statement is an answer to the recent charge made by Germany that documents had been dis- covered in Belgium that showed that the latter country had surrendered her neu- trality to England. Minister Havenith says: “The Belgian Minister, whose country in the hour of her great affliction, has received such precious hélp from the American people, begs that the follow- ing statement may be made known to them. “In a recent speech made by the Ger- man Chancellor to the representatives of the German people, he lays the blame for the invasion of Belgium with all its terrible consequences, on Belgium her- self. And as a proof of his astonishing accusation he claims that documents have been found in Brussels establish- ing that Belgium had surrendered her neutrality to England. “The Belgian Government has re- quested that these. alleged documents should be published in full thus proving the falsity of such a Gharge. Three months have elapsed since this alleged discovery, but nothing -has appeared. Only a Military Plan. “In case these documents are pub- lished, it will be seen that they do not constitute an agreement between Bel- sium and England against Germany, as the German Chancellor ¢laims them to be. They are possibly a.military plan drawn between the British military at- tache and the Belgian staff to be ef- fective in case Germany should violate Belgian neutrality, which she effectively aid in August last. “It would indeed be humorous, should the matter not be too serious for such a term, that the German Government should call a breach of neutrality this alleged plan, which, if it existed, had for its object to fortify Belgium’s neu- trality against a possible aggressor. Events have shown too clearly, alas, how much such a precaution against Germany's projects would have been timely. “Tt seems nearly incredible that Ger- many, having shown to all the world what contempt she has for her solemn engagements, blames today the country which she has invaded, in spite of her pledged word, for having attempted to take alleged dispositions in view of preventing such an unwarranted attack. This is a new proof of Germany’s faith and weil having yiolated Bel- gium’s neutrality, she accuses Belgium of a breach of neutrality because Bel- gium tried to take all possible measures to prevent such an attack. Refers to Ruins. “The mind ponders over the ruins of Louvain, the ashes of Termonde, Aer- shot, Dinant, Malines and of so many towns wantonly destroyed; over the bodies ef men slain by thousands while protecting their homes, their wives and children against that brutal aggression which no explanation, however elabo- rate, can justify. These martyrs may sleep peacefully their everlasting sleep, the Imperial Chancellor has promised that the wrong Germany has committed against them she will make good after her military goal has been reached. “Happily for Belgium and the world, a power exists, which is still above Ger- many, her idea of justice and her cul- ture. It is called the justice of God; it is to this judgment that the Belgian na- tien appeals.” . - New Haven Argumests Ended. NEW YORE, Deco. 13.—Arguments on the pleas of immunity filed by John L.

Five hundred employes of the Street an@ Water Departments of the city Were discharged yesterday because of notice from Comptroller Player that the city was facing a probable deficit of $300,000 at the end of the fiscal year. An additional 100 men will be discharged aboutgJan. 1 in the Street Department. Director Talbert of the Street Depart- ment and Director Wall of the Water Department recently learned that they had almost exhausted their appropria- tions. They were informed by the Cemptrolier that a policy of financial retrenchment must be adopted, and that the city could only spend money ’ fer work which could not be postponed. Tt is customary for supplemental ap- propriations to be made in January of each year to tide over departments which have exhausted their appropria- tions for the fiscal year, which ends in April. In the Water Department 150 men em- ployed at the Chain of Rocks and Baden have been discharged, and in the Street Department 400 men employed at wages of $1.50 and $1.75 a day. Director Talbert said this year the eity has no appropriation for clearing snow from the streets. The expendi- ture for this purpose lest winter was * & Peddlers Soap Blisters Face.

BERNSTORFF “A FACTOR” Ambassador Declared to Have Captured 600 Newspapers for German Cause. Specia] to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Dec. 13.—The Daily Mail publishes a translation by Wile of an article by Prof. Ludwig Stein, editor of Nord and Sud, entitled “Change of Opinion in America” which appeared in the Vossische Zeitung of Dec. 7. Stein begins by asserting that all signs indicate that a perceptible change in opinion has taken place to Germany’s advantage in America in the last few weeks and asserts that this is due to Britain’s seizure of cables and rigid censorship of news. “Quiet disgust over these autocratic tactics,” he writes, “is gradually be- ing converted into loud-voiced indig- nation among the Iliberty-loving Americana. The American feels as if he were forcibly cut off from his relatives and from his scientific and artistic relations with Germany, the fountainhead of culture. “In addition to the efforts of Muensterberg and Dernburg there is the manly espousal of Germany’s righteous cause by full-blooded Americans like Prof. Burgess and Prof. Sloane. These men, as natives, know what tone to adopt to stir the American national soul to lively flights.” Praises German Ambassador. Speaking of the work of Ambassador Bernstorff, Stein says: “He has succeeded in inflaming %,- 000,000 Germans in America into a united whole, and he has succeeded in appeal- ing to the hearts of even the million Russian Jews in America by writing to the editor of a Jewish newspaper in New York that Germany has given her Jews all civil rights. . “We must regard it as an especially happy achievement of Bernstorff that he succeeded during his visit to Mr. Hearst, the American newspaper king, in capturing this sovereign and over 600 mewspapers for the German cause, thus parrying the®efforts of the great press of America, which is working in England’s service, notably the New York Times, which belongs to the Lon- don Times. Manipulation of the press is the most delicate problem of the diplomacy of all countries, especially German diplomacy. Bernstorff has in this respect proved himself master of the situation.” After declaring that Americans’ debts to England and France “are partially responsible for America kowtowing to them,” Stein proceeds: “The peace, so- cieties, which are very powerful over there—at their head being Carnegie, who has remorsefully recanted his early acts of misbehavior toward the Kaiser—are beginning te move tremendously in our favor. Sees U. 8S. on’ German Side. “This spirit from below is belng met more than half way by willingness from above, Bryan, Secretary of State despite the fact that his son-in-law is an English officer, Capt. Reginald Owen of the Royal Engineérs, is known throughout the country as the Prince of Peace, or the Angel of Peace. But more important than Bryan himself are his first assistants, Robert Lansing ard Solicitor Johnson, who favor an un- derstanding on a sane basis. President Wilson himself is quietly preparing for his future role as arbiter and it grati- fies the self-consciousness of Americans indesoribably once more to be chosen nee @ great world historic mediatory Stein conctudes: “The Gifferences be- tween Japan and America are becoming s® sharp that possibly Americans, ac- customed by the bitter @ictates of their national self-preservation, will have to come over to our side, just as Turkey and Persia have already done, and as China eventually will do.” MARY? en at the tmas > uy the dia Gand Sic Sores En Mote i SN ew N. 6th st.

He has gone t much more exciting adventures as a where the climate seems to agtee with it very well. The absence of conservation laws to pro- tect it has made peace a favorite mark of gun- ners for many centuries. . This lack of protection probably is due to the fact that it has always been the judgment of most persons in the world that peace is not game, an assumption which is due to a tactical mistake that peace has persisted in making since it first learned to fly.* It goes about carrying an olive branch fn its bill.

Pan-Germanism proposes to create another con- federation, whose racial, religious and administrative unity will be even more obviously a matter of assumption than in any of the confederations out of which it is to be made.” Menace of German Socialism.

Usher of Washington University has added to his now famous book, ‘‘Pan-German- ism.”” A new edition of ‘‘Pan-German- ism,” containing these chapters and other additions and revisions, will soon be issued by the publishers, the Hough- ton Mifflin Co. Prof. Usher does not enter on any ex- tended discussion of what will happen to the Pan-German program in case the allies win. In that case, it is taken for granted, Pan-Germanism will be- come little more than a memory. What Prof. Usher does discuas, in original and interesting fashion, is the question whether the Pan-German program ia feasible, even in the event of an Aus- tro-German Military victory. His con- clusion is that Germany's | statesmen would have, in carrying the world-em- pire plan into effect, far greater diffi- culties than they have had thus far. He has also made interesting addi- tions to the chapter on “The Significant Position of the United States.’’ There is a chapter dealing with the second Balkan War and its political results. and another entitled “An der Tag,’’ which outlines the events leading Yo the outbreak of the war. In this chap- ter the view is taken that both the Triple Entente and the Austro-German Alliance were definitely preparing for war before the assassination of the Austrian Archduke, which was only a pretext for hostilities. New View of America’s Course, In his addition to the chapter on the United States, Prof. Usher undertakes to answer the question what this coun- try could accomplish by aiding the Al- lies in the war. The original chapter takes the position that t interest of the United States lies in” the continu- ance of English naval supremacy, and that an unwritten alliance between America and England has existed since 1897. On the subject of this country’s re- sources fér participation in the war, the writer says: Her army is too small, her militia too ill-equipped, for her to be able to dispatch an army to Burope large enough to affect the situation; her » navy is not needed until the English supremacy in the sea is really threat- ened; as long as her allies are hold- ing their own her neutrality is far more valuable thah any direct assist- ance she could possibly render. In- deed, for them the vital thing is that she should not directly aid Germany. If the English fleet should meet serious reverses, pnd England should be compelled to assemble her whole fleet in the Channel, the United States fleet would be needed to keep open the Atlantic highway and pro- tect the merchant marine carrying her own trade. Until it became hnec- essary to defend the Gulf of Mexico and South America, India and the Far East, the direct aid of the United States could not be decisive. Tacit American and British Alliance. In a further elaboration of his theory of a tacit alliance between the United States and Great Britain, having its be- ginning “probably before the summer of 1897,’’ he writes: No formal pledges of any kind seem to have been exchanged; treat- ies or alliances required ratification by the Senate and were not to be —ermw - ee Wis -will happen to Europe, and ar oe — ~ a _ bn | ~ my ' = py be my be my 4 “ — a = _ _ oud _ -_— aad = -_ ot eal Ba aa and all te 1 hm — hg bm — ¢ be ~ \ - E XMAS STORE FOR EVERYBO!

The Americans were of the opinion that the funda- mental interests of the United States would be much furthered by the con- tinued predominance of England and France ad would certainly be threatened by the suctess of Pan- Germanism. In case of a general European war between the coalitions, the Interests of the United States, they agreed, would nominally be those of England and France, and if the latter should be seriously en- dangered, it would be to the interest of the United States to offer what- ever assistancé lay in her power. Such an alliance, baged upon facts and not upon promises, upon proba- bilities rather than upon treaties, was all theg American statesmen could offer, but they made no se- cret of their conviction that their successors would observe the terms of the alliance of their own volition. The last two chapters of the revised book are “The Future of Pan-German- ism in Europe” and “The Future of Pan-Germanism Outside Europe,’’ What Pan-Germanism Success Means. Success for the Pan-Germanist pro- gram, Prof. Usher says in the first of these two chapters, méans “some- thing far more complex than a vic- torious sweep across France to the gates of Paris, more even than a complete victory on land and sea over their enemies. “Pan-Germanism involves the crea.- tion of the @¢dnfederation of states which it intends to make the con- trolling factor in international poli- tics; it involves, in the next place, the ability of-this confederation to win a victory over one or all of its enemies and to extend its authority and do- minions into Asia and Africa; it fur- ther assumes the feasibility of main- taining control and of preserving its ‘newly Won supremacy ftntact from the subsequent assaults of interna) as well as external foes.” Fundamental factors, the author writes, are hostile to the existence and efficiency of such a confedera- tion, even in the event of military success, “Pan-Germanism itself,” he writes, “is to be a coalition of coalitions’ in the most litera) sense of the words.

policy, Ba ssh piken woe go ke, ‘Because your house went up in smoke. : JAMES E. COWAN, & son Insurance many and Austria, hé believes, would give the Balkan States, Turkey and ] Persia no more than a qualified local autonomy. “Should the Entente be de- ‘| feated,” he-continues, ‘its next offen- sive move would surely be an assault upon Constantinople and the Balkans or an invasion of Persia in an attempt to break the Pan-Germanic chain.” The statesmen of these minor states, he adds, must see these things, and they will probably act, sooner or later, in accord with their racial and national _jambitions. Such action, he says, might overturn the whole fabric of even a victorious Pan-Germanism. In writing on “The Future of Pan- Germanism Outside Europe,” he says that even a thorough German victory would not make true the phrase scrib- bled by German soldiers in Belgium, “William II, Emperor of the World.”’ An immense fleet and a huge army position in Europe and to win its “place in the sun,” he says. The division of spoils is a problem’ whose perplexities are discussed at some length. The writer assumes that Germany would anhbex Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Switzerland, and possibly Sweden. . Ger- man colonies, he declares, would have to be sought in Asia, Northern and Central Africa .and South America. The cost and the difficulties of this colonial program are set forth. New “World State” Possible. “Tt is at least a question,” the author says, “‘where the capital for the financ- ing of the new world-state will come from, if the war impoverishes England and France, the present possessors of most of the world’s available capital, and, what is vastly more important, de- stroys the financial and credit struc- ture centering at London and Paris, by acme ra - > w * * BOYS’ $1.25 SLIPPERS ade of soft vicl kid: Sowar all Ga’, We to 5%, * yaa Williams Sixth and Franklin a Double Eagle Stamps tonpay raDmap Gpaen CROCHETED Wool-lined sea lar 76c value; 0 * regu- all col- i oot oe 8 rm hs J ee Eat Concave or Cuban Heels.

If Germany shoul. attempt to seize the Panama Canal and overrun South America, would the United States be likely to put the Mon- roe Doctrine upon the shelf and accept the situation? “* * * Problems for Victorious Germany. “The new state which Pan-Germanism will create will, when ‘projected’ into Asia and Africa, necessarily and obvi- ously iack all those racial, religious and administrative ties which form the nexus between the parts of the British Empire. The lack of geographical, con- tiguity will be as obvious and inescapa- ble between Germany and colonies or dependencies in Asia as it is between Engiand and Australia—and there will be nothing else to take its place! Upon the long continued emigration ‘of En- glishmen from England depend all those ties which have maintained the unity of the British Empire despite its lack of contiguity and of a common economic interest. The chief premise of Pan- Germanism, upon whose strict mainte- nance the continued existence of the whole scheme depends, is the ability of Germany and Austria to prevent emi- gration and to retain in Europe every man, woman and child of Germanic stock. Can a durable empire be buiit upon so slender a basis?” |ST. LOUIS CITY MISSION ANNIVERSARY MEETINGS Achievements of Year Will Be Shown in Interdenominational Demon- - stration Today.

YOU ARE OFCOURSE AWARE that the Reo Motor Car Company is financially the second strongest Automobile concern in the world. OR WEREN’T YOU?—We had supposed that knowledge was common property you can easily ascertain the truth of the assertion. WE WOULDN’T MENTION IT HERE— never have before—but it is necessary to state the fact in order to explain something that is otherwise unexplainable—the wonderful values we are able to give in the two Reo models shown and priced above, FOR “WONDERFUL VALUES” is the only term that expresses it. Think of it!—The New Reo the Fifth—that incomparable four, im- proved at many points and a larger car than its immediate predecessor—and at $125.00 less than last season. AND THE SENSATIONAL REO SIX—A six designed and made the Reo way with the Reo guarantee at the amazing price of--$1385! THAT CALLS FOR EXPLANATION, for you nor anybody else dreamed it would ever be possible to produce such cars at such prices. -§O0 SURE WERE WE OURSELVES of that, we went so far as to state in an advertisement a year ago no maker ever can—not even Reo ever can—give greater value than this’ —speak- ing then of Reo the Fifth at $1175. YOU RECALL THE STATEMENT doubtless —so when you saw the price, $1050, quoted above—and realized also that this latest Reo the Fifth is a larger and an improved car, you wondered.

Nor for a statement that we made in the best of faith—and must now contradict in the same good faith. — FOR IN GIVING OUR CUSTOMERS the full benefit of the Reo purchasing power—instead of retaining the former price and taking the additional profit ourselves—we are only carry- ing out that policy which, adhered to from the first, has placed the Reo Motor Car Company in the splendid position it occupies today. SPEAKING OF POLICY—let us correct an impression that we know is abroad. what they call our. “ultra-conservatism.” ABOUT THE ONLY COMPLAINT we ever hear from Reo dealers is that we are too modest in setting forth the merits af the Reo product. WELL, PERHAPS THAT IS TRUE—if ad- herence to the strict truth in our ads; if a de- termination not to: be carried away by the mania for mere quantities; if we prefer to be second in numbers of cars produced that we my be first in quality—if these be indicatioris f “ultra-conservatism’ why then we plead guilty, BUT OUR FRIENDLY CRITICS must con- cede that that Conservative Reo policy has tremendous results. Note the state- ‘produced ment in the third paragraph of this ad. WE DON’T CALL IT that, however. We call it conservatism militant. Aggressive con- servatism. Alert conservatism.

The announcement of the advent of this new six is of special interest to motordom, as it has been known for sume time: that the Paige company was working on the new car and con- siderable expectation had been aroused. The Paige is handled in St. Louis by the Frye Motor Car ©». | The interest in what the Paige would do to meet the demand for sixes was due largely to the success the com-’ pany had met} with its four, the model Glenwood ‘“36."" After more than a year of planning, working and devel- oping the new Paige six has at last arrived and it is the belief of its spon- sors that it will not only attract its due share of attention, but that it will more than maintain the prestige won' by the company in the field of fours. The Model Fairfield, Paige ‘“Six-4,” is a seven-passenger car, selling for Its designers and builders have innovations, but have sought to take ad- vantage of all that has previously been learned in the manufacture of sixes, to secure the last word in proved mechan- ices and construction and win dominance in the field through the exceptional value offered. ' In body design and general appear- ance the new six is of the European full streamline type with a one-man top that completes the impression of low-hung raciness. One of the features that give the car distinctiveness of. de- sign is the bull-nosed, V-shaped radi- ator of the cellar type. The wheel base of 1% inches is ample to complete the effect of imposing size. The motor is the Paige-Continental 8%-inch bore by 5%-inch stroke, unit power plant. The car has three speeds forward and one reverse, working through chrome nickel steel gears and a multiple disc cork insert clutch. The lubrication is by a combination pressure, splash and circulating system. The cooling system includes a i6-inch fan and a centrifugal pump. Starting and lighting are taken care of by the Gray & Davis generator and starting motor. The wiring is simple, accessible and carried through perfect insulation to insure against grounding and fire. The Bosch magneto, Willard storage battery and Gray & Davis lamps with dimmers complete the electrical) equipment. = a 4 O HEARTS will beat as one if you Berd a memmond rae for HER Christmas gift. tis Co., the National Credit sation. na floor, 308 N. 6th st.

H. Cross of Corona, Cal., who returned a short time ago from a trip into the interior of the ‘‘Golden State’ in his Studebaker ‘30,"" The bringing-up process was not called into effect because of the absence of conven- tional feeding methods, but was made necessary by the peculiar characteristics of the highway which, at one point awdy off the regular lines of travel, went over a mountain so steep, that the gable roof of a house is pronounced level in comparison. The steepness of the gradient did not stop Cross and the Studebaker until the flow of gasoline from the tank, under | lthe seat, no longer reached the carbu- retor. The motor coughed intermittent- ly and then stopped. An empty bottle was discovered. This was filled with gasoline and attached to the end of the feed line by an ex- tempore stopper and a foot of tape. With this apparatus a second attempt was made at the hill. The fuel, how- ever, refused to flow from the bottle, due to the absence of an air inlet. With great care, Mr. Cross managed to break a hole in the upper end of the bottle. This permitted a flow of fuel to the carburetor. With a passen- ger holding the bottle high in air, the car tackled the hill again and went over the top without further difficulty, though the grade was pronounced to be approximately 4 _— in steep- ness. Had the car been one of the more recent Studebaker models, he would have been able to make without inter- ruption any grade on which his wheels could secure traction, as the degree of fall in the fuel line from the cowl tank is much greater than the tank in the old location. WORK ALREADY STARTED ON PALACE AUTO SHOW The work of decorating Grand Central Palace for the Fifteenth Annual National Automobile Show, to be held Jan. 2—8, be- gan last week. While the huge marble structure, which is beautiful in itself. does not call for a great amount of decoration, the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce Show Committee nevertheless plans to produce a most pleasing setting for the remarkable ar- ray of cars to be shown. The dominant colors will be white. gold and crimson. As usual, the signs at each booth will contain merely the rame of the car, and these will be uni- form throughout and of a design never Lefore seen at an automobile show. In the accessory department the signs wil! contain the name of the exhibitor. -Manager 8. A. Miles, who also is in charge of the National Show itn Chicago. which, takes place Jan. 23 to W, plans tu have a beautiful setting for the cars in the Coliseum and Armory. An old will be the theme of decorations at the Coliseum, and no de- tall of the effect will be overlooked. Manager Miles will announce in detail the decorations for both the. New York and'Chicago shows next week. By ingenious engineering several hun- dred feet of floor space has been added to the Grand Central Palace. However, no matter how much additional room is found, there is a constant demand for space and the building will be severely taxed for exhibition room. Last week 28 additional exhibitors secured space for both shows, Of this number three are makers of motor cars and the bal- ance are concerns which will exhibit accessories and parts. The latest car exhibitors are the Remington Motor Co.., the Oregon Motor Car Co. and the Vul- can Car Co. CADILLAC EIGHT SHOW 17 MILES TO THE GALLON One of the most interesting per- formances in the economy contest just held at Harrisburg, Pa., was that of the eight-cylinder Cadillac. This car checked in at the end of the run with a record of practically 17 miles per gallon to its credit. The route of the contest run was 111 miles and led throtght the mount- ainous country around Harrisburg. The Cadillac, throughout, carried sev- en passengers, extra tires, etc., a load totaling 6582 pounds. « Equally interesting as showing the possibilities of the eight-cylinder mo- tor which powers the’ new Cadillac was the same car’s :participation in the Lincoln Highway cross-country run from Philadelphia to Pittsburg, held the following day. In this event the Cadillac relay was from Cham- bersburg to York. The car was driven to Chambersburg from Harrisburg; and, carrying five passengers, made its run of 64 miles from Chambers- burg to York in one hour 34 minutes, crossing South Mountain on the way. ENGINEER MAKES FAST RUN ST. LOUIS TO DETROIT St. Louis to Detroit touring records were shattered last week by O. E. Hunt, assistant chief engineer of the Packard Motor Car Co., who covered the 563 miles in a total elapsed time of 16 hours 47 minutes, He kept no record of his actual running time. Thirty hours was the best previous time for this run. Hunt's record is authenticated by a route card which bears the time stamp of the Mar- quette and Pontchartrain hotels. Hunt’s performance was preceded by ino unusual preparations. He drove a Packard “3-38 phaeton, . taken from with windshield up, and made stops for meals and gasoline.. There were no blowouts or mechanical t bles and the mud roads of Illinois and Indiana were in good general condition, though wretched in certain stretches. The Old Trails route, which he was com- pelled to follow from St. Louis to Terre Haute, proved extremely bad. Hunt drove from.4 a. m. until 8:46 p. m., Maintaining an average speed of 33.6 miles per hour for the total elapsed time. His miles per hour in the 6 héurs CLIMBED MOUNT > WILSON Billy Carlson, one of the Maxweil racing team, took a stock 1915 Maxwell and drove it ip Mount Wilson in just 22 minutes, dne second; truly a wonder-’ ful performance, because -tthe world’s record for this famous climb was 42 minutes.

They came, mainly, from that vy nickly settled, fertile, once prosperous south- arn strip, along which Germans and allies were now fighting for the bridge-head of the } Yeer. But not all. Some of them—as I learned from i he few who had the energy to talk—lived further *j\ orth.

She Many Die Soon After Birth. | LL that happened on the fringe of Belgium, A to the refugees who had made their way out and were nearing safety, and enough comfort to keep soul and body together. I could multiply instances from the observation of others. There was, for example, the group of 200 refugees who arrived in Holland early in November. They carried with them four deasd, new-born babies. It was the same story which one hears every- where. The mothers were so reduced by priva- tion that they had no milk of their own. As for cows’ milk, it was not to be had for any money. Add another picture, brought out by an Ameri- can from Belgium. He stood one morning by the back door of a German cook camp, watching a group of Belgian women grubbing through the trash-heap piled up behind the camp. All these women carried babies. “What are they doing?’ he asked a Jerman Sergeant with whom he had _ struck up ac- quaintance. “ “Scraping our condensed milk cans,’ said the Sergeant. “It’s the only way to get milk for their babies. I’ve seen them run their fingers round a can which looked as bright as a new coin, and hold them into the babies’ mouths to suck. My company,” he added, “has been get- ting along without milk in its coffee and giving it to these women. We've received no orders to the contrary—and we're mostly family men. But we're an exception; and it doesn’t go very far.”’ Mother With Baby Collapses. ERE is another recent picture from strick- HL en Brussels, that gay, dainty, lively city in old times-—the city whose’ smiling people called it petit Paris. The scene is the once busy, pleasant boulevard Bischofsheim. A woman collapses on a bench set along the side- walk after the fashion of the Greater Paris. In her arms is a baby. A child staggers along, cling- ing to her apron. The woman’s face is blue and yellow; she is on the verge of collapse. The baby, surely not over 5 months old, has a pale, lead-colored skin. Its mouth is open as though set that way. Its eyes are closed. Two women of Brussels pass this unhappy group. They hurriedly exchange some _ words, turn back to the woman on the bench. Then one!

They de not take list of those who are beginning to die ; by hunger in stricten Belgium. And, finally, they do not list these babes of Belgium, dropping off before their lives have fairly begun, because there is no milk. Let us view the situation in cola blood. Bel- gium is shut off from the world—ringed with steel. Her cwn food supply was used up long ago, either -by the people or by their conquer- ors. The cattle were first of all to go; ‘even in August I saw the Germans kill milch cows for rations. A cow or a small dairy herd is left here or there: but ther are the exceptions. The suppiy of condensed milk ran short long ago. Now milk is a necessity to most civilized children between the ages of one and two years. Some children, it is true, pull through, under ex- ceptional circumstances of privation, without it; but these are the unusually sturdy; they stand apart from the rule. The average young child must have milk or he will die.. And there is no milk. A Winter of Famine Ahead. GAIN, the suckling babe must have moth- A er’s milk or a substitute. There is, of course, no substitute to be had in Bel- gium and equally there is little mother’s milk. Every. woman knows that a civilized nursing mother must “keep up her strength.” She must have nourishing food—in many cases_ special food. Every woman knows that a certain propor- tion of civilized mothers cannot feed their own babies even at that. P Nourishing food—special food! The news which filters out of that locked, stricken country to the American Commission for Relief in Belgium makes a sarcasm and a mockery of those phrases. In many, if not in most Belgian cities, the pop- ' ulace is down to one large baker’s bun a day, is-) sued by the municipal authorities. In some places ‘ the authorities have been able to supplement } that ration by one bowl of cabbage soup a day. ( One bun and one bowl of cabbage soup a day— for a nursing mother’ Yet that is all they have and all they will have this winter at the best America can do. The, American Commission hopes at best to transmit 10 ounces of food a day to each inhabitant of Bel- gium—and to do:that the people of the United How | and. \ } \ little that ‘s for a civilized human being, , especially for a nursing mother, becomes plain wnen one learns that, the average inhabitant of Greater New York consumes 42 ounces of food a day. The best the mothers of Belgium can hope for is a quarter ration this winter. Even allowing for the reduction of the birth rate due to the war, there must have been 40,000 | births in Belgium since the Germans came. There will be 40,006>more in this winter of hardship and privation. How many of the newly arrived ) 40,000 have already @ied unnecessarily- rated, unsung victims of this war—no one will’ .ever know.

Ts country-wide war on high school fra- ternities and societies reached a decisive action when a recent edict of the Pan- Hellenic congress went forth announcing that after Dec. 1 members of high school Greek let- ter societies would not be eligible to membership in the college fraternities and sororities. The edict does not immediately do away with these lesser organizations. The high school so- cieties will have their loyal adherents who never hope to go to college and recruits were rushed to the fore as fast as they could be mustered up to the date mentioned, but the edict, it is plain to see, deals a body blow to the future enlarge- ment and growth of the lower class societies. All along the college societies have looked down upon high school secret societies. Oh, yes, many college men and women are obliged to acknowledge earlier membership in these clans. But after learning at college some- thing of the serious and integral part played by the fraternity (or sorority) offering as it does a home, preferred associations and many other ad- vantages beyond the merely social, these look back ugon their high school fraternizing not as preparatory lut as cheap and puerile imitations ot the older sworn brotherhoods and sisterhoods.

I remember in an interview immediately upon her Some principals, notably Mr. Butler, so oppose the idea that never the tiniest emblematic pin or bit of ribbon traceable to secret society origin is tolerated at Yeatman. ’ TEACHER, WILL YOU TELL US WHAT QUR SORORITY =f al > Pb STANDS FOR! Whe SF 3 co One of the best known and most enthusiastic sorority organiz. rs ever known at Yeatman con- ceded to me that no Sorority or fraternity exists there today. “They just ‘made it so uncomfortable for us, having us up in the office almost every day and thmeatening to call in our parents, that we all gave up,’ this young woman told me. At McKinley likewise the problem is about dig- posed of—just died of inanition, I'm told, At Central, Mr. Curtis says, “their influence has become so insignificant” he can’t tell they exist. Soldan Prolific of Secret Societies. T Soldan, however, several chapters, both of sororities and fraternities are in flourish- ing condition. That there may be those curious to know what is the real objection to these little clubs and ready myself to believe there are two sides to every ques- tion, I set forth to find out. Supt. Blewett was the first authority to be con- sulted, of course. “It is not that you discourage clubs built purely upon social intents? It is not that you would at- tempt to compel democracy, thereby defeating the purpose of democracy? It is not that you have had occasion recently to take a hand in correcting them?” is the way I laid my assumed perplexity before him: “No,” agreed Blewett, “we do not discour- }age social organizations. Opportunity for the ‘interchange of social arts, graces and accomplish- nients is one of the best features our schools are ‘developing. We do have clubs that are exclusive } to the extent of limiting the members to certain numbers or to other qualifications such as skill in the art or science to which the club is devoted. “But a club which is bound together by false ‘ideas of social aristocracy, which fosters social differentation, is incompatible with an institution belonging to all the people, as does the public schools. “An exclusiveness governed by the -caprice of members, considering only the personality or, as often happens, the wealth of a candidate for mem- bership, is apt to slump into snobbishness. . - Public School No Place for Secrecy. bos 2 HE element of secrecy, too, is an objec- tion, suggesting, as it does, something ests. Nothing really helpful to a public school or , priyate welfare need be secret. 1 regard it as insignificant. “As to the present proportions of the problem, They exist, we know, but our best policy is to leave it a parents’ prob- jem, the teachers co-operating, of course, with the parents, with such information and advice as ob- servation and experience have to offer. “] think the best argument that our course ie CONTINUED ON PAGE THREE. | ,) 148 Beal Ag. ae . of ei geal ~ : ene , not in line with the school’s best tnter- BE.

ST... = ee a + ee nn gene ae | Hard Blow for Sororities in the High Schools Continued on Page One. —_—— discouraging high school secret societies is right, is the fact that the college so- cieties have decided against them. They serve no such purpose as college or- ganizations of the kind do, for high school pupils have homes and family ties which should be cultivated and not interfered with by the absorbing influ- ence of ‘the club.’ “College societies are justified in say- ing their high school imitators cheapen their ideal.’’ Snobbishness, exclusiveness, imitative- ness are the chief objections, then, as Supt. Blewett’s arraignment shows, Mr. Powell, principal of Soldan, would be next in value as a source of informa- tion upon this subject. He would be well supplied with first-hand observa- tions and experiences with the problem, I thought, and was not disappointed. Arraigned by Soldan Principal. ‘‘Members of secret societies have been known to place the good of their own organization above that of the larger school interests,’’ said Mr. Powell. He then cited as a convincing in- stance the case of a parent who came to him with the complaint that his son having ‘‘made’”’ a certain fraternity, had learned that one of the require- ments of membership in good standing is that he ‘fail in at least one study.” “It has been my observation that it is usually the weaklings, those who do not assimilate the school spirit or knowledge we seek to impart, who flock to the secret societies. | “Their brothers and sisters swear to stand by each other in time of diffi- culty and only the weak seem to need such support. This is not saying that individually they may not be very lov- able and brilliant socially. But it is to say that as students they may be impossible.”’ Then he told me of the disagreeable instance of a boy who had raised a fine imposed upon him for the loss of some laboratory tool from 2% cents tv $2.50 by the addition of cipher and period, in a statement sent to his parents. | ‘‘He hadn't been able to keep up with his fraternity asséssments financially,’ remarked Mr. Powell. There was another instance of insub ordination to be attributed to this ‘fra- ternal’ influence. A parent had asked the principal to detain his son from leaving school to attend a fraternity function fn a neighboring town. Mr Powell accordingly refused to sign an ‘‘excuse” for his absence. The boy, by deliberate misrepresentation, not only got himself, but several of his “broth- ers,’” excused by the subordinate teach- er. The entire group was later sus- pended. The leading boy’s father then repudi- ated his previous arrangement with the principal, endeavoring to get his boy reinstated. “Showing that,’’ Mr. Powell comment- ¢d, “‘although these social organizations outside the school are clearly a parent’s problem, parents sometimes are ready t> shift the responsibility to the teacher.’’ Denounced as Undemocratic, These societies are objectionable, said Mr. Powell, because they are undemo- cratic. “It is true,” said he, “‘we have other Clubs, whose membership !s limited, as. for instance, the Botany Club. It is impracticable for one teacher to at- tempt to chaperon a club of more than 25 or 30 upon the botany hikes. As- pirants to membership must wait their turn. “But we have no clubs in the public schools which have the privilege of ex- cluding members because of any social or personal objection. Such organiza- tions would be incompatible with the fundamental basis of the public schools as an essentially democratic institu- tian.’”’ T had already been told of the case of a girl one sorority had marked for their own, but who had determined not to align herself with any faction. A system of coercion had been used, a discreet assortment of snubs and over- tures, until the girl, rather than yield, had forsaken Soldan and taken up her studies at Mary Institute. Mr. Powell aiso knew of this case. “Fancy,” he said, “having to seek in a private school the democracy that had been denied her in public school. “That these children have but a faint conception of the real significance of these organizations among college men and women was illustrated here a day or so ago. A Pi Beta Phi Gamma girl of Washington University came here de- siring to see a certain girl student. The younger woman was not at leisure just then and the sorority member seemed so anxious that I offered to have her message communicated. ‘I am afraid you wouldn’t sympathize with my er- rand,’ she said. ‘Well, this grows in- teresting,’ said I. ‘Let’s see.’ So she confided that she just wanted to know by what right this president of a high school sorority had gone to a jeweler and ordered a number of pins bearing the Pi Beta Phi'insignia complete. It turned out that one little high schoo! girl; who had no idea of appropriating the property of others, had merely fan- cied the general design and appearance of the older sorority’s precious emblem and had ordered accordingly.’’ Ignorant Even of Greek Alphabet. Another teacher farther down the line told me of how often she its asked to pronounce and translate the Greek let- ter combinations to which these young- sters have sworn life-long allegiance. “It is always the dressy, showy girl, the one likely to be popular. with the Loys, who is chosen for these sorority honors,”’ this same teacher told me. Another instance of snobbish persecu- tion she related to me. Two. girls had been chums through all the grades, walking home together every day, until they entered high school. One of the girle was of the showy type and blessed with wealthy parents, the other was lovy- able but poor. The difference in worldly matters had mi never in any way altered their relations. but it did when they came under the influence of the sorority. The wealthy girl was chosen for mem- bership, the poor gir! was ignored. And now, ‘tis said, the wealthy girl is not permitted by her oaths and vows to as- Organ Recital Thursday Ni ht, Edward Rechlin, organist at t manuel Church in New York city, “a (Pe! heard at an organ recital Thursday night at Sheldon Memorial, 3648 Wash- | ington boulevard.

You needn’t wait any longer. The right car has been produced and the price of it is right. The ALLEN 3+ is the car on which your mind has been set. A dealer in automobiles—a man whose experience has given him the ability to judge a car on its merits— writes: ‘*You have sueceeded in TT an ideal combination in the power o your motor and the weight of your ear.’’ If It's Pewer You Want. The ALLEN Motor in our Model 34 ear has a 35¢x5-inch long stroke, de- veloping 37 horsepower. The weight of the car is 2300 pounds. If you have studied automobile construction and efficiency you will understand the ad- vantage that lies in such a combina- tion of ;ower and weight. Our idea—the ALLEN Idea—has been that the car which the represent- ative man wants is a car that has strength, speed, dugbility and style— & car that can be operated economi- ecally—one that isn’t cheaply made and doesn’t look cheap—one that is cheap only in the price the buyer pays for it and in what it will cost him to run it. That is the ALLEN 34, price $895. An Idea With Something Rack of It. A word about the ALLEN Oreanigation, We have been in the manufacturing bual- ness for a quarter of a century. When we began to bulld automobiles it was with the idea of putting into them every cent of value that’ was possible at the prices for which they were to be gold. We have adhered to that idea, In addition to its strength, its spee its durability and its safety. the ALLE) 4 is a beauty. When you ride out in it you will have no cause to be ashamed to meet your friends on the road. You need not be afraid that they will come up behind you and pass you either. When you drive an ALLEN car you will not advertise your inability to own a high- class automobile. Why Be Extravagant? For the man of taste who wants a _& peek, Classy automobile that will not necessary for him to indulge in “foolioh extravagance, the ALLEN 384 five-passenger touring car fills the bill.

Instead, . unless help comes soon, it will find many of them withoar food or clothing. At a conference here between the mine owners and representatives of the strikers, the actual misery the miners’ families are enduring was depicted #0 plainly that many of the operators wh? heretofore have been most defiant are said to have shown a decidedly more conciliatory attitude, although no agree- ment was reached. The miners are de- manding wages of 47 cents for each ton handled, while the operators are offer- ing only 44.6 cents. have continued so long and the avall- able funds have been so nearly exhaust- ed by the demands of the strikers in Colorado and other fields, that reduc- tions in the pro rata benefits have made it necessary for many families of eight to live on less than $3 a week. Con- tributions of food and clothing from several Ohio cities have hardly touched the need, and efforts are now being made by charitable organizations to pro- vide substantial relief, The Post-Dispatch is the only evening news- paper in St. Louis that receives or publishes The strike benefits paid by the union | athered by the Associated Press. = a — - we ——_— What is Starla.

KENTUCKY'S NIGHT SCHOOLS SOLVING Men, Women and Children of the Mountains Eagerly Take Ad- vantage of Them. a] WOMAN STARTED Campaign to Raise $20,000 for an Extenstion of the Move- ment for Education. WORK Special to the Post-Dispatch. ‘ LOUISVILLE, Ky., asec, 12 with farsighted .—From seeds sown purpose slightly more than a year ago by one energetic, kind-hearted, yet determined woman, Ras blicssomed Kentucky's State-wide campaign for moonlight schools—a move that more than prom- ises to reach its goal of stamping out illiteracy in the State by 1920, This woman Mrs. Wilson Superintendent is Cora Stewari, formerly of Originator of the moonlight schools idea and founder Schools in Rowan County, of the now famous anti-illiteracy cam- paign association in Kentucky. dealing with the problems within her jurisdictién, Mrs. Successful stern Stewart’s extraordinary work has set afoot the present campaign, which, sup- State and municipal officials, educators and the public at large—including pre-eminently illiterates themselves, forecasts Ken- tucky’s quick advance to a conspicuous place among those states renowned for their educational endeavors and their few illiterates. In fact, the object of the campaign is actually to exterminate illiteracy in Kentucky by 1920, mental and physical defectives excluded. Began Crusade in 1911. Mrs. Stewart began her active crusade in 1911, after she had -been touched by the sad condition of the uneducated in her community. In that rough moun- tain country every school district was cut by a creek, which, during the rainy season, became flooded. Children whos attempted to reach school by fording or crossing these streams were in dan- ger of death. This was only one of many physical obstacles to attending school. Many of the families were poor. A barefooted boy with frozen feet be- ing nursed to warmth and strength by his teacher was not an uncommon sight. Bad roads, poverty and the isolated lo- cation of the farms made schooling ex- tremely difficult, even for those who braved all obstacles. Mrs. Stewart observed these conditions and it was then she conceived the idea of moonlight schools, so named because they are held at night and only when the moon makes the treacherous moun- tain roads safe for travel. The first moonlight school session she advertised widely, inviting all the people to at- tend. It was difficult at first, because she had to gain the confidence of a peo- ple who had been more or less brought up to be suspicious. But she succeeded beyond her fondest dreams. Mothers With Babes in Arms. Octogenarians, middle-aged men and women, rough mountaineers, youths and maidens, just.past the age when they should have finished their education, with no thought of the differences in théeir ages or stations, eagerly assembled for instruction and applied themselves with surprising diligence to their task. An opportunity they had tearfully longed for but given up hope of receiving, had come to them at last. Domestic Science Taught. In a short time Mrs. Stewart had every school in the country conducting moonlight sessions. In addition to the ordinary textbooks, other means of ed- ucation were used. Tools from _ the neighborhood of each school were bor- rowed. The boys learned carpentering and improved the equipment of the sechoolhouses. The girls were instrueted in domestic science, materials and equip- ment being donated by whomsoever could. The results of the work ‘were astounding and soon the Federal Depart- ment of Agriculture and State authori- ties became interested in Mrs. Stewart's ported enthusiastically by activities. Through Federal aid, boys’ and girls’ corn and tomato clubs were formed and at once began competing for prizes in raising these products. One boy raised 7 bushels of corn from an acre on the top of a cliff and won a handsome cash prize. Other contests followed and other prizes were awarded. The pro- ceeds helped the boys and girls and also their elders to pay taxes for im- proved schooling facilities. The State Highway Commission caught the spirit of the work. By the aid of the people themselves, 50 yards of good road were constructed in front of every schoolhouse in the county. Roadways were remapped, culverts and _ bridges were planned and soon an elaborate sys- tem of county highways was being established. Schools Bring Prosperity. In the meantime. women who could not write their own names when the movement was launched, became teach- ers of their fellow citizens, and farm- ers who had barely existed are now reaping the harvest of scientific meth- ods learned as a result of moonlight schoolwork. They now are able, to profit by the agricultural literature of- fered by the Federal and State depart- ments. Three years after Mrs. Stewart in- augurated her moonlight schools, there are only 2% illiterates in the county where 1100 formerly was the record. These 23 are either physical or mental defectives. The first year, 1200 persons attended the moonlight classes. In 1913 the attendance was 2500. Now the night schools exceed the day classes in at- tendance. The results of the educational move directed by Mrs. Stewart @ould not es- cape the attention of other communi- ties, which adopted the “moonlight schools”’ plan with great success, Soon Mrs. Stewart was touring the counties lecturing on the work, its. results, ed- _ e i a ai a ERR: Ne 8 5 st BON i Re ON Og em oe hom SERIOUS PROBLEM ng ] advisability of its adoption on @ state- wide basis.

I read one of your lit- tle booklets, called ‘Ills of Life,’ of Peruna being a remedy for catarrh. and procured a bottle at once. After the use of one bottle I felt some better, so I tried the second and the third, and now I am a well man. ‘*My health is much better than it has been: for three years. All praise is due Peruna.’’ Catarrh of the head is the same disease as catarrh of the stomach. So far as the nature of the ailment is concerned, it matters little whether the catarrh is located in the throat or bronchial tubes, the treatment is the same. The wonderful success of Peruna in curing these cases consists mainly of the fact that it is a natural in- vigorant that enables the system to overcome the catarrhal condition, which in many cases is so chronic that it has become a habit. Peruna speaks for itself. Just give it a chance. Try a bottle of it. You will then know for yourself. There are people who object to tak- ing fluid medicines.

WELLS DISEASE BREEDERS Feared That Students Might Spread Maladies in Going to Their Homes. NORMAN, Ok., Dec. 12.—A consider- j able portion of the population of Nor- iman is complaining that the Oklahoma , State Commissioner of Health, Dr. J. Mahr, came to town and bumped their heads without calling ‘Low bridge!’’ Some are angry, some are chagrined and a number amused. ‘ Norman is the seat of Oklahoma Uni- 'versity, and always smiles when it is spoken of as the ‘Athens of Okla- /homa.”’ Commissioner Mahr had heard 'these Athenians of Oklahoma boast of civic pride, smooth pavements, fine ishade “trees and beautiful lawns. He grew curious about the alleys, the wells and cisterns, the back yards, the dairies and the way grocers, butchers and bak- ers handled their products. He ap- ‘peared with his staff of helpers so un- | expectedly one day that the town was ‘caught napping. Commissioner Mahr found it neces- isary to publish a 40-page pamphlet, with numerous illustrations and two maps, to describe what he found, the title of the publication being ‘‘A Sanitary Sur- vey of the Town of Norman, Ok., a University Town.’ The last three words of the title are what cost most annoy- ance to those citizens who wear spec- tacles and earmuffs. Purpose of Survey. The local purpose of the survey is made plain by Mahr, as follows: — ‘‘Nor- man, the University Town, is the educa- ‘tional center of our State. Hundreds of young men and women from all parts of the State and from _ surrounding states spend about nine months of the year in this city, and then depart to their various homes in the spring. It is therefore highly important to have an accurate knowledge of the sanitary and health conditions of such a town, as the control of infectious and con- tagious diseases of the entire State may depend upon such conditions. At the same time the student body is entitled to health protection during their resi- dence in Norman.” The health officers visited each resi- dence, living apartment and place of business, including the university, and received answers to questions that cov- ered every phase of health and sanitary conditions. Outside the fact that Nor- man had an ample supply of pure water from deep wells, the survey report does not indicate that the health officers founa much that met with their ap- proval. Twenty of the 152 private wells were tested, and 17 found to be contam- inated. Practically every dairy from which Norman draws its daily milk sup- ply was found to be in a highly unsani- tary condition. The names of the dairy- men were printed and their dairies de- scribed in detail. Norman gasped at the revelations. In most instances the public school buildings were reported as unsanitary and overcrowded and the grounds neg- lected and unsightly with rubbish. Business District Drubbed. The business district was given a lively drubbing. One of the town bak- erles was described as a ‘‘disgrace to the city and fit object for immediate con- demnation.’”’ Grocery stores and butch- er shops, in numerous instances, did not acreen their articles of food. “With the oxception of two paved al- leys in the business district,’’ said the report, “‘all alleys are neglected and in most instances filthy. They have be- come the depository for trash, flith, kitchen waste, dead chickens and any- thing else of little value. Practically all are overgrown with weeds.” Oklahoma University was not spared, the report. saying: ‘““‘The library and ecience hall buildings are not in good condition. Sanitary conditions, espe- clally in the science hall, are not the best. There no means for proper ven- tilation to remove fumes from laborato- ries. The gymnasium, a frame building, is overcrowded, unsanitary, with poor ventilation. There are ur wooden buildings on the campus, back of science hall, used for class rooms, print shop and anatomy building. They are all in poor condition, overcrowded and inade- quately ventilated.” Typhoid was sufficiently prevalent in Norman to be considered epidemic by Mahr, who gave warning that if the public officers of Norman did not rem- edy this condition the State would be compelled to take action. Wants It to Be Helpful. Mahr intends that this survey shall be helpful, not only to Norman, but to all other towns in Oklahoma, by its giving citizens a better understanding of existing conditions. “What is true of Norman,” continued the report, ‘is true of nearly every town in the State of Oklahoma. The same survey made in these towns will reveal these conditions, this neglect and the failure on the part of the city gov- ernment to provide proper protection for the health of its citizenship. To assure yourself of the truthfulness of this state- ment, let anyone who is interested inves- tigate the school grounds, buildings, places that furnish food supplies, al- leys, streets, the water and milk sup- ply, and how contagious diseases are cared for, and we feel confident that they will be convinced.” “POOREST EXCUSE OF MAN” KANSAS CITY, Mo., Dec. 12.—‘'Tell all my friends I was the poorest excuse of a man there ever was.

PUBLIC’S MONEY IN HIS PRIVATE ACCOUNT Successor Recently Elected Won’t Give Full Receipt on Taking Over Office; Audit to Be Made; Abt Says He Will Pay Any- thing Due. Post-Dispatch reporters learned last night that a discrepancy of several thousand dollars had been found in the accounts of Paul W. Abt of East St. Louis, who completed, last Tuesday, a four-year term as Treasurer of St. Clair | County, and who was elected last month ; | to the State Senate. One report was | that the difference between the funds | in East Side banks, to the county’s cred- it, and the amount which the Treasur- | er’s books, in their present tangled con- | | Fred Warning dition, show to be due to the county, would exceed $20,000. Abt was succeeded as Treasurer by. of Edgemont, but the books of the office have not been turned ever to Warning, and Warning has re- ; : the county funds. | | : , fused to give Abt a receipt in full for An audit of the books is being made, under the direction of the County Board of Supervisors. Money on Private Account, When Abt was asked last night by a reporter about the state of his ac- counts with the county, he said he be- ~Heved the books would show that the unty had about $18,000 on hand. He on added: All, that money is in bank, but it 1s Pall to the County Treasurer's ac- mt. Some of it—a few thousand, maybe—is on my private account. Il know this is not the customary way of handling county funds, but I am sure there is no real deficiency. “When ‘the audit of the books shows what is due the county, I stand ready to pay any difference there may be between | the county has and what it shou rere. The county will lose thing.” ‘Due the County. When he was ed why he placed county funds to his private account, Abt made no direct reply, byt re- marked, "Everything will be all right.” Treasurer Warning, whan seen by a reporter, made a much higher es- timate of the amount due the county than the one made by Abt. Warning said he was told by Herman Pfuhl, chief clerk under Abt, that the books showed $34,000 to be due the county. This is $16,000 more than Abt's off- hand estimate of the amount on hand made in his interview. According t Had him.

CHICAGO, Dec. 12.—The plans of Jo seph Leiter’s monumental effort to cor- ner the wheat market in 1898, when he ran the price up to $1.8 a bushel and finally lost about $12,000,000, were related in detail by himself as a witness today in Federal Judge Humphrey’s court. He asserted if the late F. H. Peavey and the late C. A. Pillsbury, of Minneapolis. who, he declared were virtually his part- ners, had not released grain on the Chicago market during his operations, he would have been successful. The Minneapolis:grain men would not put the agreement in writing, he said, because they assertdd it was a ‘‘crim- inal conspira@cy’’ under the laws of Min- nesota and’ they did not wish to sign anything which might be Wrought up against them later. Now Lives in Washington. Leiter, who now lives in Washington is the son of the late Levi Z. Leiter who sold millions of dollars worth of downtown Chicago property to make gcod his son’s losses. Leiter took the witness stand to de- ferd himself in a suit to recover $380,- 935, the principal and interest on tw> notes which the Interior Elevator Co and the Monarch Elevator Co., the lat- ter represented by Chester W. Lane of Minneapolis, say is owing for wheat bought in 1898. Asked what his occupation was in that year, Leiter said he was ‘“‘more busy running a wheat deal than anything else.” He told of a visit to Minneapolis, where, he said, he conferred with Pills- bury and Peavey, who was president of the two elevator companies bringing suit. James Peavey, brother of the latter, was also in the conference, Leiter said. Had More Than Visible Supply. “We compared our statements of grain we had on hand with the statements of the State and Government.”’ said Leiter. “We found we had more wheat than there was in the visible supply, and f said: ‘Let us put this down in black and white, then we will have something to show exactly what We are going to do, ard how we are going to do it, so there will not be any mistake. “Messrs. Pillsbury and F. H. Peavey reared up immediately and said no, they would not sign any agreement, as they did not care to go to jail. I said: ‘No more do I.’’ “They said it was a criminal con- spiracy under the laws of Minnesota. I said: “Why, it looks like a good deal. that.’ “They said they were willing to take their chances, but they would not sign the agreement. “I told thém I wanted it under- stood that nogwheat be shipped to Chicago, as I had my May corner on. This was agreed to. I said I did not want the ‘shorts’ to get the wheat we had so they could deliver it to me in Chicago. I told them I wanted to squeeze the ‘shorts’ and get all I could.” Leiter also said he paid Peavey & Co. ‘‘a.couple of million dollars” in margins on these purchases. Later when the wheat began to pour into the Chicago market, Leiter said, he told Peavey he thought«he was the man who was shipping it. “He got very mad,” said Leiter, “and threatened.all sorts of dire things. He said he would ‘bust’ the pool wide open and he did.” Played “Judas” With Him. “They played Judas with me,” he said. “When the market broke I found that I owed \one creditor—The Illinois Trust and Savings Bank—hbe- tween $10,000,000 and $12,000,000. Every cent of it, and of other bills, has been paid, I don’t owe this one.” Leiter said that he was in control of «the Chicago market and would have won had Peavey and the Pills- bury people kept their. promise to him. : Local traders still talk of the dramatic conclusion of the “corner.” Ice-crushing tugs were used in smash- ing .the ice so that cargoes of wheat at the head of the Great Lakes could be delivered to Leiter, who had run the price up to a maxtmum of $1.85 a bushel. Prodigies of exertion, in- spired by the most liberal tips, were performed to get snow-blockaded trains laden with wheat in Chicago. Leiter, who started buying wheat at between 80 and 90 cents, found himself paying well over $1.50 for the late arrivals. Even the great Leiter fortune could not stand it. The ice-crusted boats from the North and the grein cars from the West disgorged their loads,-the banks de- clined to loan more money, and the “Young Napoleon” was beaten. Phillip D.. Armour, the veteran packer, was the man who fought Leiter and won.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. (Copyright, 1914, by Press Pub. Co.) PANAMA, Canal Zone, Dec. 12.— Col. Goethals has, cabled the War Department at Washington a request for torpedo-boat destroyers to en- force the neutrality of the canal waters. The British auxiliary collier Lena yesterday violated the neutral- ity of the canal waters and ‘the canal laws by using its wireless. The United States naval station here was not at the moment ready to interrupt the Lena’s message and quick orders to the Panama Railroad steamer Ad- vance to do. so developed that its wireless was not ready for duty. Wireless messages in code, picked up by the oficial stations here and the presence of the allied warships off the Pacific termina], demonstrate that. these waters are being made a naval base for the allies. The British Minister here has been informed by Col. Goethals that ho ab- solutely will not grant the slightest deviation from President Wilson’s neutrality orders, British Warships Said to Have Coaled 50 Miles From Panama. By Associated Press. PANAMA, Dec. 12.—It is persist- ently reported here today that a squadron of six British warships met four British colliers yesterday 50 miles south of Panama and coaled from them. It is belleved locally that these warships came from Australian weters; one of them is even Said to be the Australian battle cruiser Aus- tralia. For several days there has been much wireless interference and it is believed the colliers and the warships have been in communication. Also ships’ captains coming into Balboa have reported the nearness of British cruisers. , Six British colliers have called at Panama during the last few days. This concentration of colliers ¢n- doubtedly has been for the purpose of supplying the British squadron. A British cruiser is said last night to have come close into Balboa. She is supposed to have been trying to lo- cate colliers. She left at once. A Japanese fleet is said to be off the coast of Chile and the British warships are believed to have sailed for the South to effect a junction with it. Six ee Washington Asks Goethals Why He Wants Destroyers. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—Col. Goethals has requested that destroyers be sent to the Canal Zone immediately, it was learned tonight, but no specific explan- ation of the need for naval vessels there was included in the message. A_ reply asking for this explanation was sent at cnuce, but no answer had been received trom Col. Goethals at a late hour. Officials believe the canal Governor has experienced some difficulty in pre- serving the complete neutrality of the zone and its territorial waters. Many ships belonging to belligerent nations dre in the vicinity, and it is thought possible Goethals has found himself un- able to check use of their wireless plants within the three-mile limit to convey information to warships at sea. With swift naval vessels to aid, it would be an easier matter to regulate use of wireless, and it was thought probable tonight that the necessary destroyers would be dispatched as soon as Col. Goethals’ explanation is received. Seeretary Daniels sent the following statement to the Post-Dispatch from the Gridiron dinner: “T have not heard that any British collier has broken neutrality regula- tions.

OBJECTIO GERMANY A NABLE TO S ARBITRATOR “American Neutrality Fias Been Favorable to Great Britain,’ Declares Semi-Official Cologne Gazette. By ‘Associated Press. AMSTERDAM, Dec. 12.—In a long article dealing with the possibility of the United States playing an important role in the conclusion of peace among the European Powers, the semi-official Cologne Gazette sayg that the ‘‘peace movement in America is not inspired by Germany” and that “American bankers with German names, in urging the deée- sirability of peace, render a doubtful service to Germany.”’ Such language, the newspaper says, is likely to be misconstrued as an indica- tion that Germany is exhausted by the war, and, it adds, such notions only tend} to injure German credit with neutral states. ' Despite all friendliness with America, the Cologne Gazette continues, Germans must .not allow themselves to be de- fact that America cannot be an arbitra- tor in the fight between Germany and Gieat Britain. It would be an ostrich policy, the news- paper declares, not to recognize that public opinion in America, taken as a whole, is entirely friendly to Great Bri- GOV. MAJOR HERE. 70 LEARN HOW 10 FOX TROT? OH, NO Anyone Who Has Danced as ‘Much as I, Doesn’t Need to Take Lessons, He Says. | c Gov. Major was in St. Louis yester-]] day, and: it was rumored among his friends that one purpose of his visit was to perfect himself in the fox trot and other new dances, with a view to leading in social festivities at the exec- utive mansion this winter. But when a Post-Dispatch reporter went to ask him about it, the Governor said that rumor belied him. “I don't need to take. lessons -in such dancing,” he declared. “I have watched the new cances, and there isn’t one of them that I couldn't do with 10 minutes’ practice. Anybody who has danced as much as I have, doesn’t need to take lessons in dances like those.”’ The Governor said he expected to see the new dances this winter at the twice- a-month social functions during the 1919 legislative session, and that he would not be averse to taking. part in them. Two years ago, dancers at the executive mansion did not try the tango and the other new dances of that time, through an impression which prevailed that the dances were not in favor with the Major household None of the new dances was tried at the Major inaugural ball. In Pike County, years ago, Gov. Major won prizes as a buck and wing dancer, and he says he is as light on his feet as he was then, and that he never gets tired of dancing. He says the Virginia reel is his favorite, and he intends to have it included in the program of every dance at the mansion, so as to be sure, as he puts it, that “everybody will have one good dance.” The Governor returned to Teme City last night. sintetagalieinainioen Van Once Rich Dies a Pauper.

It may be argued, it says, that the American Government has observed the strictest neutrality, “but one can ce neutral in an indifferent way, and, on the whole American neutrality has been favorable to Great Britain.”’ The newspaper then says: “In view ef all this we cannot i ie in America the confidence which we dught to be able to repose in a Power which would act -a2 an impartial arbitrator in regard to an-arrangement of peace. “We cherish no feeling of irritation against America because she is friend- ly to Great Britain.

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.~-A Buenos Aires dispatch, printed here today, says: Three hundred beds for the wounded in the recent naval engagement have been requested by wireless messages received at Montevideo from the British fleet. According to the wirless, the wounded will reach Montevideo Monday. ~ It is supposed that practically all of them are Germans rescued by the British war- ships from the Gnelsenau and the Leip- zig. Only those vessels under Sir Fred- erick Sturdee’s command having the wounded aboard are expected at Monte- video. The rest of the vessels, accord- ing to wireless messages, are several hundred miles to the northward otf the South American coast.

Parade grounds to their utmost limits were crowded with them; rises and skylines were furrowed with them; and the whole length of the roads heaved and rippled like bicycle chains with blocks of men on the move. The voice of a Sergeant in the tor- ment reserved for Sergeants at coii- call boomed across a bunker. He was ealling over recruits to a specialist corps. , “But I've called you once,” he snapped at @ man in “But I’m Clarke Two,” was the vir- tuous reply. — : “Oh, you are, are you?” He penciled the correction with a scornful mouth. out of one corner of which he added: “‘BSlioppy’ Clarke: You're all, Clarkes er Watsons today.

Heard Nothing but Distant Skirl of Pipes. HERE was no music—not even T drums and fifes. I heard noth- ing but a distant skirl of the pipes. Trust a Scot to get his na- tional weapon as long as there is a chief in the North. Adnmiitting that war is a serious business, especially to the man who is being fought for, and that it may be right to carry a long face and contribute to relief funds which should be laid on the national debt, it surely could do no harm to cheer the men with a few bands. Half the money spent in treating, for example. 7 29 There was a Moor among woods with a pond in a hollow, the center of a world of tents whose population was North-Country. One heard it from far off. “You ’man, “Yo’mun trail 'pick ‘an t’ rifle at the same time. Try again,” said an instructor. “An isolated company tried again with set seriousness and yet again.

Another company, at physical drill, in shirt and trousers, showed what superb material-had offered itself to be worked upon, and how much poise and directed strength had been added to that material in the past three months. When the new army gets ali its new uniforms; it will gaze at itself luxe a new Narcissus. But the pres- ent kit is indescribable. That is why, English fashion, it has been made honorable by its wearers; our world in the years to come will look back with reverence as well as affection on. those blue slops and that blast- ing cap. One far-seeing commandant, who had special facilities, had possessed himself brass buttons, thousands of ‘em which he has added to his men’s outfit for the morale efect of (a) having: something to clean and (b) of keeping it so. It has paid. The smartest regiment in the service could not do itself justice “in such garments, but I managed to get a view of a battalion, coming from a walk, at a distance which more or less subdued their uniform, and they moved with the elastic swing and little, quick ripple that means s80 much. A MINER is not supposed to be ag a rifle as one twiddles a. walking They were clad in a blue oe that’ pace and learns the economy of effort te developed back and shoulder muscles take him along very handsomely. An- | other battalion fell in for parade while ‘I watched again at a distance. They [ came to hand quietly and collectively enough, and with only that amount of pressing which is due to a fear of being late. A platoon—or whatever they call ‘t—was giving the whole of its attention t» its signaling instructors with the air of men resolved on getting the las: flicker of the last film for their money. Crime in the military sense they do not kpow any more than their fellow in- nocents up the road. It is hopeless to pretend to be othe: than what one is, beCause one’s sou! in this life is as exposed as one’s body. It is futile to tell civilian lles—there are no civilians to listen—and they hava not yet learned to tell service ones with- out being detected. It is useless to sulk to any external] condition of affairs, because the rest of the world with which a man is con- cerned is facing those identic&l condi- tiuns. There is neither poverty nor rich- es, nor any rossibility of pride, except 1, sv far as one may do one’s task a little better than one’s mate. In the point of food they were oex- tremely well looked after, quality ané quantity, wet canteen and dry. Men Can Get Outside of a Vast o’ Vittel. RAFTS come round the L) clock, and they have to be fed; late guards and sentries want something hot at odd times, and the big marquee canteen is the world's gath- ering place, where food, life’s first in- terest to a man in hard work, is thor- oughly discussed. They can get outside of a vast o’ vittel. Thus, a contractor, who delivers 10,000 rations a day, stands, by deputy at least, in the presence of just that number of rather fit, long, deep men. They are what {fs called “inde- pendent,” a civilian weakness which they will learn to blush over in a few months, and to discourage among later recruits; but they are also very quick to pick up dodges and ticks that make aman more comfortable in camp life, and their domestic routine runs on wheels. It must have been hard at first for civilians to see the necessity for that ccntinuous apparently pernickety house- maiding and “following-up” which Is vital to the comfort of large bodies of men in confined. quarters, In civil life men leeve these things to their women folk, but where women are not, officers, inspecting tents, feet and such like, develop a she-side to their head, and evidently make noncoms and men develop it, too. A good soldier is always a “bit of an old maid,” but, as I heard a private say to a sergeant in the matter of some kit chucked in the corner, “‘Yo’ canna’ keep owt redd up cny proper road on a sandhill,’ to which his superior officer replied: “Ah know yo canna’, but yo’ mun try, Billy.” And heavens knows they are trying hari enough—men, noncoms and offi- cers—with all the masked and under- voiced effort of. our peoples when wé are really at work. They stand at the very beginning of things; creating out of chaos, meeting emergencies .as they arise; handicapped in every direction, and overcoming every handicap by simple good will, humor, self-sacrifice, common sense and such trumpery vir- tues. I watched their faces in the camp, and at lunch looked down a line of some 2) men in the mess tent, wondering how many would survive to see the full splendor and significance of the work here so nobly begun. But they were not Grove away again I was overtaking their next immediate job. They ate quickly and went out to it and by the time I drove away again I was overtaking their battalions on-the road. Not unrelated units lugged together for footslogging, but real battalions, of a spirit in them- selves which defied even the blue slops— wave after wave of proper men with undistracted eyes who never talked a word about any war. But not a note of music—and they North Countrymen. _—-— in all Havas Agency reports that the Servians heavy losses at Kosmai, 30 miles south of Belgrade.

DSPLEASED AT STAFF CHANGES Newspapers Refer to Von Fal- kenhayn’s Failure on Western Front. VON MOLTKE “PUT ASIDE” He Is Said to Have Favored Ac- tion in Center, Kaiser Or- dered Drive at Calais. By Associated Press. : THER HAGUB, Dec. 12.—German newspapers which have just been re- ceived here show that the German press, although prohibited from crit- icising any acts of the Government during ‘thé war, is much displeased by the sudden change in the leader- Ship of the military forces. They state that Count von Moltke has been “politely sidetracked” as chief of the general staff and that supreme command has been given to “a war minister whose behavior toward the Reichstag in the Zahbern incident was insulting.” In the short biographies of Major- General von Falkenhayn, which the newspapers are permitted to print, they refer in: the most guarded way to what they term his failure up to the present time in the operations on the western front. Von Falkenhayn Installed Oct. 25. ‘Von Falkenhayn was appointed temporary chief of the general staff on Oct. 25,” says the Berliner Tage- blatt. “He therefore has held the position since the fall of Antwerp. During this period have occurred the battles of the Yser and Dixmude. In this serious time, therefore, Von Falkenhyn has been uniting all the functions which during the ware of 1870 were divided between Von Moltke and Roon.” It is intimated in these newspapers, that there has been friction between Emperor William and Count von Moltke, owing to a difference of opin- fon concerning the conduct in the west; it being understood that while Von Moltke favored energetic opera- tions against the French center, the Emperor was strongly inclined to- ward pushing the advance in the di- rection of Calais. As a result of this conflict of opinion, {t is said Count von Moltke retired to take the cure at Homburg, being, however, in no actual need of medical attention. Gen, von Falkenhayn then continued the operations in Flanders, under the Cjrection of the Emperor. Announce- ment was made five days ago that Gen von Falkenhayn wopld remain at th head of the general staff, but tha Count von Moltke might be given an ether mission. Kaiser Opposed Plan The plan of campaign’ of Count von Moltke, as originally outlined, was t» advance on Paris as rapidly as possi- ble and this led to the swift movemert toward the French capital by Gen. von Kluck and Gen. von Hausen in August and September, which was ended bs: the forced retreat to the positions now occupied by the Germans in France It is stated that friction between Em peror William and Count von Moltke firet occurred at this time, the Emperor taking the ground that the move tactic- ally was futile. After the capture of Antwerp it was Von Moltke’s desire, according to these reports, td concentrate efforts on the Verdun-Toul line, while the Emperor pointing to the possibility of an envelon- ing movement by the allies, or a break through the wedge which Von Moltke proposed to advance, favored the con- tinuation of operations against the forces of the allies in Flanders. This is the situation, it is now said, which finally led to Von Moltke’s trip to Hom burg and the installation of Von Falken- hayn as Chief of the General Staff. Indian Troops Parry Thrusts of Bayonets With Left Hands SOUTHAMPTON, Dec. 12.—A Cana- dian soldier who has visited several hos- pitals in the south of England recently, saw 40 or 50 East Indians, all of whom had their left hands bandaged. He asked one of the Red Cross attendants how they all received the same sort of in-| juries, “All of them have bayonet wounds in the left hand, because of their style of fighting,”’ was the reply. “When they get close enough for a hand-to-hand fight they throw down their guns, parry the boyonets of the enemy with their left hand and ve their knives with the right hand. Of course they get a bad wound in their left hand, but they don’t mind that, and they almost always get their man.’’ Germany and France Each Has 1400 Aeroplanes in Service WASHINGTON, Dec, 12.-—-The present strength in air craft of foreign countries is indicated in oficial estimates sub- mitted by the Navy Department to the House Naval Committee and made oe lic today.

Correspondence of the Associate’ Press. LONDON, Dec. 1.—Gen. Baden-Powell shares the opinion of many other En- flish military experts who believe that Germany fully expects to invade En- gland if possible and will direct its ac- tivities toward the commercial cities in the north of England, rather than to- ward London and the resort cities of the south. In the opinion of Gen. Baden Powell, the German Emperor will en- | deavor to land at least 90,000 troops in England. “I know that the general idea is,”” said Gen. Baden-Powell in a recent inter- view, “‘that the attempt to invade En- gland will be made on the coast of Nor- folk or Suffolk. Personally, I think that }the Yorkshire coast is more likely, for the Germans will first desire to invade the industrial centers of the north. They appreciate what effect that would have if they succeeded. Once let them get hold of some of the big manufacturing towns, factories would be smashed up and ruined and I estimate that they could then throw 14,000,000 persons out of employment, rendering them destitute and starving. It is certain that even by a short, sharp raid they could do a tremendous amount of damage.” He Is Not Optimistic. Gen. Baden-Powell is far less optimis- tic about the war than many of En- gland’s public men. The hero of Mafe- king said: “There are still many persons in coun- try districts and even in some of our large towns, who do not realize what this great war means—that Britain’s fight is one for her very existence. We receive encouraging reports that we are doing well, but we must remember that one side or the other must go under and go under forever. At present it looks as if the wind is blowing in our favor. but there is always the unex- vected to consider. You never can tell. The right thing to do is to try to smash the Germans now, which means that every man must put his shoulder to the wheel.”’ The Germans, it is pointed out by the General, have nine places in which they could embark troops in an effort to make a landing in England. He esti- mates that a greater force than 10,000 probably would not be sent from each of these points, making a total of less than 100,000. Lowestoft and other towns along the HE correspondent of the . Observer in Amsterdam wires: “The latest four lists of Ger- man casualties give the names of 32,756 killed, wounded and missing. These lists bring the total losses up to 691,236. The lists do not include the_Saxon, Wurtemburg and Bavarian casualties.” garded as likely the landing places for an invading army, have made prepara- tions to receive the Germans.

LONDON, Dec. 12.—The German army officer whom a customs offi- cial at Gravesend today fodnd.con- cealed in a huge box which was about to be shipped to Rotterdam, told an alien emigration officer that his name was Otto Koehn, and that he was a Lieutenant In the German army, according to a dispatch from Gravesend to Lioyd’s News. The Lieu- tenant sald he had been in America recently and returned aboard the steamship Potsdam shortly before the outbreak of the war. Subsequent- ly he was arrested in Southampton and interned in the camp of aliens at Dorchester. “= The box In which the officer was found was among the luggage of a number of elderly aliens who were being sent from the camp at Dor- chester to Germany. On arriving at Tilbury from Dorchester they were transferred to a ferryboat for Gravesend, where they boarded the steamer Batavier bound for Rotter- dam. Porters handling the baggage found beneath the pilt of packages a huge packing case on which--were stenciled the words, “Nonpoisonous safety matches.” The case was so heavy that the por- ters had to roll it over arid’ 6ver.” The bumping of the box apparently stunned case partly open, causing an arm to protrude. This was noticed by a Dutch seaman, who called the attention of the ferryboat skipper to it. An armed guard in charge of those being d was called and found the man in, the box in a semi-conscious state. It is believed that the aliens in the Dorchester camp, when they learned that a number of men of military age were to be sent to Germany, plotted te hide Koehn in a packing case which had contained Swedish matches.

DEBATES TO BE SHORT Dapporiers Ori®anize Force for Fights—Opponents Say (“They Will Win. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—The issues of national prohibition and woman suffrage will be placed squarely before the House of Represeritatives as a result of action taken today by the House Rules Com- mittee, when it decided to report special rules for fhe consideration of constitu- tional amendments on both subjects. Representative Henry, chairman of the Rules Committee, asserted the rule on the Hobson prohibition resolution would be presented Dec. 22 and that the reso- lution, after eight hours of debate, would be pressed to a vote on that date. ' The suffrage resolution, he said, will fcllow immediately. Henry Against Both Bills. Prohibition and suffrage supporters immediately began to line up their forces for the coming encounter. Members who had determined to go home for Christmas; whether Congress adjourned or not, revised their programs. Representative Henry issued a state- ment asserting he would vote against both of ‘the proposed constitutional amendments. 2 It was believed generally in the House that the special rules would be adopted, @s a majority vote only is required. Ic was also predicted, however, that the suffrage amendment would be unable to secure the necessary two-thirds vote i the House and opponents of prohi- bition expressed confidence that it, too, would be defeated.

It also was decided to hold night ses- sions of the Senate at least once a weex and oftener if necessary. “Appropriation bills will have the right of way in the Senate as rapidly as they come from the House,”’ said Senator Kern. ‘The conservation measures, the Philippine bill and the ship purchase bill will be taken up as soon as they come from committees, but appropria- tions will be taken up whenever ready,” he sald. “The immigration bill was not discussed in the caucus, as it is ex- pected that it will be voted on before many days.

ON PROHIBITION AND SUFFRAGE National Contest at This Time Would Divert Attention From More Immediate Issues. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.~—The Post- Dispatch presents herewith Secretary of State Bryan's opinions on prohibition and woman’s suffrage, as set forth in an editorial signed by Bryan, which will appear in the forthcoming edition f the Commoner: “Some of the Democratic editors pro fees to misunderstand the import of the two editorials in the last issue of: the Commoner, one entitled ‘Tne Alcoholic Milistone,’ and the other an editorial in support of woman’s suffrage. “These editors seem to consider the above mentioned editorials as an in- d°%rsement of national amendments fa- vorable to prohibition and woman’s suf- frage, but a careful reading of them will reveal the fact that while the former plainly protests against the domination of the Democratic party by the liquor interests and the latter as plainly suv- ports woman’s suffrage, they relate to these issues as they present themselves in the various states. Questions at Issue in States. “A two-thirds vote of the two houses of Congress is required for the sub- mission of an amendment to the nation ai Constitution, and then the amend- ment must be ratified by three-fourths of the states. There is no reason to be lieve that a prohibition amendment or a suffrage amendment would, at this time, be ratified by three-fourths of th states, even if it secured a vote of two- thirds of the two houses. Believing ir both woman's suffrage and the aboll- tion of the liquor traffic, I would vote for either amendment if submitted, but the time does not seem opportune for the submission of either of these amend- ments.

A carload of ore, 30,000 pounds, taken out, is thought to be worth a million dol- lars. BD. M. AMMONS. Special to the Post-Dispaica, DENVER, Colo., Dec. 12.—The report- ed gold strike made in the Cresson Mine on Raven Hill, owned and operated by Chicago men in the Cripple Creek re- gion, continues to be the talk of Colo- rado mining circles. By carefully sorting the ore found in a cave in the 1200-foot level, a carload _of mineral that would run $1,000,000 was obtained. Thirty tons of second-grade ore removed from the cave will run $1000 per ton, while 80 additional tons of mineral that is sacked and sealed ready for shipment will run in excess of $8000 per ton. The ore is being kept under armed guards until it can be sent to the Denver smelter. The strike is unusual from @ geological] standpoint. The cave in which this remarkably rich ore was found is a freak of nature. It is in the center of an ore chute 155 feet wide by 45 feet long and the mineral ranges from pure gold to sylvante and calvarite (very high-grade gold ore). The cave is 3 feet long and 15 feet vide. The discovery disproves theories held by mining experts that Cripple Creek would not produce high-grade ore ai a great depth. The find is declared by Capt James T. Smith, a mining expert of Colorado, to be the greatest in the history of the State. Capt. Smith, who has made ea trip to hes read nor heard of such a discovery.

MINTZ IN ARSON’ GANG, A MEMBER ARRESTED, SAYS A. N. Fryer, Held in Burn Store, Tells “Fence’s” Part. Plot to of IS IN FEAR OF HIS LIFE Merchant Asserts He Has Been Threatened With Death if He ‘‘Squeals.”’ By a confession of Abraham N. Fryer, a former business man of West Frankfort, Il, taken into custody yesterday in the St. Regis Hotel by Deputy United States Marshal Ken- edy, United States District Attorney Oliver has gleaned inside information on the workings of an arson of which the late Sam Mintz, killed in his home at 2815A Gamble street on the night of Dec. 5 was one of the leading figures. Fryer, it was disclosed by the ar- rest yesterday, was secretly indicted by the Federal Grand Jury last Jan- uary. At the same time Sam Mintz, Miss Cordelia Ward, a former school teacher and church worker of Neosho, Mo., Ben Weisman, an associate of Mintz, and a fourth person were joint- ly indicted. All were charged with a conspiracy to defraud and using the United States mail in furtherance of the scheme. At that time another indictment was returned against Fryer, charg- ing that he caused explosives to be transported aboard a common carrier. This indictment was made public; and followed the dismissal of Fryer before authorities at Neosho on a charge of having attempted to burn the store of Miss Ward upon payment of a $40 fine. Fryer wags released on $2500 bail on the first Federal indict- ment, but thé second was held in abeyance until the Government could gain knowledge of the whereabouts of other persons wanted. Insurance Increased. Federal authorities were informed of the scheme to burn the store at Neosho through the work of the Furlong De- tective Agency. This company was em- ployed by’ insurance companies, attract- ed by the fact that the store of Miss Ward had greatly increased its poli- cles. Last February, according te Ben C. Applegate, vice-president of the Fur- long agency, he got information which caused him to place Fryer and Ben C. Wiseman under surveillance. On the night of Feb. 9, Applegate followed Fry- er and Wiseman to Union Station. They carried grips, which afterwards were found to have contained five jugs of gas- Cline. At the station, Applegate learned, Fryer bought Wiseman a ticket to Ne- ceho and the latter departed over the Frisco for that town at 8:35. The gas- oline was taken to the Ward store, but a fire was prevented because of the activity of Applegate. He notified the Sheriff and the gasoline was seized. As a result of this work, a confession was obtained from Miss Ward, who im- plicated Fryer. She told Applegate, in the presence of officers of Neosho, of her plans with Fryer. She told of the latter’s having visited Neosho to take over the stock of another store, and of her telling him of her business diffi- culties. She confessed that Fryer sug- gested boosting the insurance and burn- ing the place. She said he told her it would cost her $500. Later, she said, she sent him a money order to West Frank- fort, Til., where he was in partnership with another man. She received an an- swer to this letter, according to informa- tion received by the District Attorney, telling her the work would cost her be- tween $1000 and $1500. Upon this and cther correspondence the Federal charge was based. Price Increased. Miss Ward told .pplegate she de- murred when Fryer raised the price fo} the work, but Fryer insisted on more money, and on last Jan. 14 she met him in St. Louis and executed a note for $1350 at his suggestion. The note, according to Applegate, was dated, August, 1913, and Miss Ward admitted she waa to pay after the fire. She had $5500 stock, and had insurance on the same totaling $12,000. Fryer went to Neosho following the fesuance of a warrent against him on an attempted arson charge, He was released on $3800 bond, and later, after a trial, was fined $4. The fine was considered light by those who had made the case against him, and they immediately began to lay the case before the Government, using the charge that he had aided in the transporting of an explosive. He was awaiting trial upon this charge when arrested yesterday. He had previously indicated to the dotectives that he wished to make a full confession of everything, which he did Friday. District Attorney Oliver asserts his statement corre- sponds in many Getalls to the confes- sion of Miss Ward. In the United States Marghals office yesterday Fryer displayed much un- easiness. He said he fears he is about to be killed. In answer to a question as to why he displayed such anxiety he said: “Well, Mintz was killed alright, wasn’t he?” Fryer told Applegate that he had an appoiitment to meet a person who was associated in the Neosho job on Twenty-second street last Tuesday, The meeting was to have taken place in a Jewish restaurant. Teld te Keep Quiet. He said the man did not appear to keep the date, but there was a gang about the place who watched him in a threatening way. He sald their actions indicated that they tntended to injure him. Last Thursday, he abl serts, on Franklin avenue, a tall man with a sweater and a cap backed him against a wall and with a knife thrust at his stomach admonished him not to squeal or he killed. These threats, he said, had eaused him to come in and make a clean breast of everything. .)

The authorities were in- formed Mintz was to have sent a Supposed traveling man to Neosho with trunks fillee with excelsior, These trunks were to be emptied and re-filled with the choicest stock of Miss Ward’s store and removed else- where, after which the place was to have been set afire. Fryers story details how the entire scheme was worked out by various persons who did not know each other. Mintz is sald to have been employed ‘by a third party, who is also under in- dictment, and that he in turn was to send persons to carry out other ends of the scheme who were un- known to each other. After his anrest yesterday, Fryer was allowed to sign his own bond in the sum of $1000, WOMAN'S LAW CONGRESS ENDS Eight-Hour Day and Minimum Wage Measures Indorsed at Chicago. CHICAGO, Dec. 12-—The Woman's Legislative Congress closed today in a whirlwind of recommendations. The recommendation that a health certifi- cate be demanded before marriage was voted down by a large majority. Strict- er legislation governing the sale of cigarettes was not deemed necessary. In the half hour before the congress closed the following measures were in- dorsed: Passage of the birth registra- tion bill being urged by the Children’s Bureau at Washington; an eight-hour day for women; legislation demanding one day of rest a week; a minfmum wage law; legislation which will make any person liable to punishment for contributing to the delinquency of chil- dren as parents and guardians are now, and a child labor law which raises the age at which a child may go to work from 14 to 16 years. —= The horrors, the pathos, the splendid spectacle of war, are so vividly shown in the 4200 feet of motion pictures which will be exhibited at the Garrick Theater beginning today at 11 a. m., that the be- holder believes he is in the center of bursting shells and falling cities.

The maxim that charity begins at home was liberally interpreted yester- day, during St. Louis’ first ‘thobo” tag day, conducted by the Brotherhood Welfare Association, the members of which are sometimes known as James Eads How's hobos. In the morning there were distributed among the can- vassers about $290 worth of tickets, to be sold at 10 cents each to passersby on the downtown streets. At,the con- clusion of the campaign W. L. Gilles- pie, treasurer, had received exactly $35,91,_ iie....admitted philosophically that probabl’ a number of the solicitors hi. succumbed to the temptation to apply the collections directly to their own personal needs, or, as he put it, had “‘gone south with the money.’’ He predicted that the committeemen woul havé @n ordeal to face when they at- tempt to make their report to the erhood at a general meeting this afternoon, Hoboes to Give Play. be tickets are good for admission *i-R theatrical benefit to be given next Saturday night at the Central Trades and Labor Union, 2228 Olive street, with a cast of ex-professional uj ‘actors who admit that they are lit- erally, but not artistically, “on the bum.” The offering -is to be a one- act playlet entitled “Out From the : Jungle.” The purpose of the collection was to establish a free employment bu- em yr # | FACSIMILE OF RED TAG SOLD BY HOW’S HOBOES 423 => Admit One 46 Entertainment —= Rorthe—— - UNEMPLOYED ‘SAT.

Froelich of Chicago, under Federal indictment, with James J, West of Chicago and O. A.

A few minutes after Max T. Israel, second assistant Prosecuting Attorney cf St. Louls County, had an argument with Pearl Dwyer and A. McDougall of Webster Groves as to whether an auto- mobile owned by Dwyer could do 98 miles an hour, the machine ran off a high embankment in Clayton, and the three men were injured, at 7:30 o'clock last night. At the end of their debate as to the car’s speed possibilities, they boarded it at the courthouse in Clayton and started south over the North and South road to Dwyer’s home. Two blocks from the courthouse the road swerves sharply to the west, and. descending abruptly, passes under a Rock Island viaduct. Dwyer, confused by a flurry of snow which was falling, did not make the turn, but continued south. The car had such momentum that it cleared a double- track railroad, landed without upsetting after dropping to the bottom of the embankment, and was brought up by a barb wire fence. Dwyer fell against the windshield and his forehead was cut. Israel’s wrist was sprained. McDougall’s back was wrenched. Dwyer’s 88-year-old son, who sat with him in the front seat, was un- injured. The front axle of the automobile was broken. Joseph Heller of Clayton went to the rescue and tumbled to the bottom of the bank in a faint and struck his head against the automobile. He was revived by a physician. Rushing Tobacco to Market.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—Informal as- surances have been given Ambassador Morgenthau at Constantinople by mem- bers of the Ottoman Cabinet that Amer- ican institutions in Turkey will receive treatment similar to that accorded for- eign institutions in this country. Sec- retary Bryan made public today with- out comment the following paraphrase of Morgenthau’s message: “The American Ambassador at Con- stantinople has had an interview with. the Menister of Public Instruction ‘and the Minister of the Interier. The» pro- pose that American fnstituttons shall be treated the same as foreign ‘natitu- tions are treated in the United States, and will delay for 60 days the enforce- ment of most of the instructions that are objectionable. They stated that their chief desire is to secure super- visory control and direct relations with foreign institutions without guardian- ship of the embassy. “The Minister of the Interior, now acting Minister of Finance, has as- sumed temporarily the posts of Min- is er of War and Minister of Marine.

OWING clubs of this city, seven in number, are figuring on next but Old Man Bat Could Always Beat This One N the Hast there’s a young boxer who calls himself Young Nelson. Billy Roche says he looks like Bat, smiles s:ke Bat, fights like him and, like the Dane, wins. While Young Nelson may be able to beat his opponents like Bat, he’ll need a lot of experience before he’ll eb able to beat the typewriter like the former champion. It’s a Sure Thing Game. @® way to make both ends meet, in the matter of indulging in the annual regattas and other junkets on the clubs’ yearly progres. The order compelling clubs to take out a 6a- loon license instead of the cheap club license that formerly served the purpose is the straw that breaks the camel's hump. ; Coach Sam Wright of the Western Rowing Club, before he left, said there was some doubt whether any of the clubs would this year be able to send representatives to the na- tional regatta, as they did formerly. The clubs’ obligations now have in- creased about $800, or will be if the regular saloon license is taken out. No speculation about !t—it’s 6 Ges ng. A” PMastern commentator on foot- ball, deploring the commercia]- ism of college football, writes: “When one college can take in $300.- 000 at the gate, as did arvard this year, it arouses all sorts of specula- on.” As the sale of liquor will also be thi under excise office conditions no Sunday busines will be available to boost the receipts. As a consequence some of the smaller clubs are expected to be seriously handicapped by the ex- pense of keeping crews in train- ing for the Central States, South- western and other regattas, and river contests freely entered by local clubs in the past. Tt is expected that a way out of the difficulty will be found, but at pres- ent it is not in sight. How the Feds Were Led.

In 154 games Harvard Deding Michigan Game; W.-J.Is Dropped Tufts and Bates Also Will Be Displaced by Cornell, Vir- ginia, Carlisle or Williams. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 12.—The achedule makers for the Harvard football team of next year have de- cided, according to a statement from the sacks—enough to send any team to last place. The best record, of the an authentic source tonight, to drop league in this respect was made byjthe University of Michigan, Washing- Buffalo, which had only 874 left, al-|ton and Jefferson, Springfield, Y. m. most 100 less than the Indianapolis} C. Tufts and Bates teams from team. the schedule. Colby will open the season at the Stadium, it is now pro- posed. Trinity, a newcomer, has been allotted the second game, and ne- otiations have béen closed ith ennsylvania State for the refurn of that team. The Princeton, Brown and Yale contests again will close the season, in that order. For the three midseason dates thus left open, five teams are under con- sideration. These are Virginia, which has not previously appeared on a Harvard schedule; West Point, Car- lisie, Cornell and Williams, each of which has been absent from the Sta- dium for one or more seasons. Wolverines After Princeton. ANN ARBOR, Mich., Dec. 12.—Re- ports that the Michigan football elev- en will play Princeton instead of Harvard next autumn have been cur- rent in university circles here for several days. The report has not yet received official confirmation. It was admitted recently, however, by offi- ciales in charge Michigan’s 1915 jfootball schedule that Harvard would not give the Wolverines a return ame at Ann Arbor next fall. Stu- ents have been discussing a report that Princeton was willing to sign a two-year ootball contract with Michigan, one of the games to be The High Cost of War. DDIE COLLINS, the most valued player in the American League on the report of the commission of scribes, changed owners at a cost of $60,000 (alleged) to Charles Comie- key, doubling the best previous price ever hinted at, in an actual transac- tion. Personally, Old Dope has it that Mr. W. Johnson is worth more te a team than any other single factor in an osition on any club could possibly be, unless it were some other pitcher. That being the case, the aggre- gate value of Johnson, Piank, Bender, Marquard, Magee, Wingo, Perritt and the other known jumpers to the Feds since the season closed must surely. be ever $200,000. Add to this all the players that the Feds took last year, some two | bad or indifferent, erty assets lost by baseball clubs must east $500,000. is add the expenses of re- due to weakened vanished stars, and the : es F Lo ~~ ™ money spent in litigation, and the ' _ i> yhke~ Be sith oe ee 3 i . . +m iT saints SI é ema. tr Rt ARG TU 0s semi + Re ag Cee * agreement minor leagues—over 40 of price of peace, than to add it to! play Father CAME IS ASSURED - FOR TURKEY Dt Faculty Representatives of Two Schools Will Meet Wednes- day to Sign Contract. That Washington University has suc- ceeded in amending the Missouri Valley Conference rule, which for five years has prohibited the playing of football games on. Thanksgiving day, and will play St. Louis U. on turkey day in 1915, is the semi-official announcement made by Pikeway officials "fraps , On Wednesday of this week the fac- ulty athletic representatives of the two schools will meet at a luncheon at the Jefferson Hotel and close arrangements for next year’s game. Quick action is imperative if the two schools are to proceed with their schedule, and for that reason the bosses will clinch mat- ters this week. It is believed that a long-term contract will be entered into, as both institutions are pleased with their experience of the past season, when relations were re- sumed after a long estrangement. The game netted enovgh money to wipe out deficits in both treasuries. Big Profits in Sight. It has been realized, too, that if the continuity of this annual conflict is maintained, the game will in time de- velop into an institution, yielding enough profits to enable the schools to carry on other branches of athletics in a rep- resentative way. An official of St. Louis U. stated yesterday that the past foot- ball season showed a small profit in eontrast to losses of previous years. This ‘‘velvet,”’ while small, has given the Billiken authorities sufficient courage to schedule a big indoor meet at the Coli- seum in March, an event that several years ago was recognized as one of the classics. It is thought that Washington will lend a helping hand fn this venture by entering a full team while in return the Billikens will send a big squad fo an outdoor meet that the Pikers have in mind. But it is not so much the healthy condition of finances at_present as it is the belief that the Washington-St. Louis game on Thanksgiving day next year will yleld big profit that has given the Billikens the incentive to go ahead. There is some sense of security felt from the fact that the football game is to be an annual feuture. McCawley Joins Billikens. Coach Keogan stated yesterday that he had bright prospects for a strong track team. John: McCawley, formerly star of the, Missouri Athletic Associa- tion fliers, has matriculated at the Bil- liken law schoo] and will run in the colors of the blue and white. McCaw- ley is considered the best local 10-yard man and Keogan plans to enter him in the big nine meet this winter. Also in the. outdoor events. McCawley will be the nucleus of a team which Keogan plans to build up as he has other stars whose light have been hidden under a bushel of inactivity. He has some ———. promising weight man and a pair of good hurd- lers. Keogan will start indoor track prac- tice immediately after the holidays, while his basketball team already ts hard at work. Keogan seems to have a spark to him. H. ve ET a Sets New Mark for 6-Mile Run “Flying Finn” Proves Himself Best Distance Runner in America.

Among other obstacles it includes a formidable water jump in going over which every one of the contestants indulges in an ice-cold mud bath. After going through this the first time around Kolehmainen was covered with mud rom his shoulders down and none the other “chasers” fared better.

Fo Broken in Health, BackFrom France ee BEN S Ben Rigby, Winner of Many Famous Stakes on French Tracks, Sent Home by Friends. Ben Rigby, famous a few years ago as one of the most successful Ameri- can jockeys riding at French tracks, is back at his home, 2107A Adelaide avenue, St. Louis, broken in health and, it is feared, through with his turf career. Rigby arrived in St. Loulg Friday evening from New York in care of an attendant, and is now resting at the home of relatives at the address given above. Rigby came over from France on the steamer Rochambeau in charge of a nurse named Murray. For § five months he had been in poor health. When war broke out it was thought better to send him home and Ambas- sador Herrick was interested in his case and arranged his, transportation to this country. On landing in New York he was sent to the Bellevue Hospital by the State Board of Deportation. He was kept overnight in the psycopaths ward, after which he was sent to his home here. Rigby has finished up at the top in French riding circles, in years past, vieing with such American riders as Reiff, McIntyre, Milt Henry and others. He has been under contract to some famous owners of stables, among them a nephew of Baron Rothschild. Relatives refused to permit a Post- Dispatch reporter to interview Rigby here, yesterday, stating that he must not be disturbed for two or three weeks until his health and nerves had? had time to “come back.” Rigby is 35 years old and has been riding abroad about 15 years.

The Missouri State Billiard Asso- ciation is the title of an organization that will probably come to life next week at Jefferson City, where a meeting of owners of cue establish- ments from all the big cities of the State has been called. St. Louis will be represented b Charles Peterson, former red ball champion and referee of all the more important matches in the Middle Wrest. “The object of the organization is to get to the attention of the law- makers the severe penalties that are being placed on the conduct of a bil- liard business in this State. We pay a table tax of from §20 to $30 for pool and billiard tables, in addition we must now pay a $5 war tax on the same. Besides this, we pay a property tax and a business tax.

St. Charles Lightweight Meets in Albany Boy a Fighter Who Has Met Top-Notchers, By Harry S. Sharpe, Referee for the Future City A. C., and the Post-Dispatch’s Boxing Authority. Frank Dorsey, not well known in the West, but a popular boxer in the East, comeg to the Future City Ath- letic Club on next matched to box Al Gilbert Charles, Mo., pounds. Dorsey comes from Albany, N. Y. where he and Jabez White are grea favorites. ee has never had his name inserted in the record books, but has been considered good enough to match with boxers like “Knock- out” Brown, “Battling” Nelson, Joe Bedell, Willie Beecher, Joe , land, Tommy Langdon, “Kid” iberts Charlie Griffin, Billy Glover an “Yankee’ Schwartz. Dorsey’s meeting with Schwartz was. sensational, as Dorsey won by a knockout in 23 seconds. The only boxer who has succeeded in knocking out Schwartz since then was Willie Ritchie, just five days previous to his six-round bout with Harry Tren- dall of this city. Another Smart Importation. Dorsey’s appearance here is in line with the Puture City A. C.’s policy this season of presenting boxers who are making good elsewhere in intro- ducing such boxers ag Frankie Calla- han, “Kid” Sullivan, “Young Zulu Kid” and Jack Hanson, all of whom were strangers to St. Louis and of whom but little was known when they came here, but who are now quite popular because of the classy entertainment they have furnished. Dorsey, in his match with Gilbert, will meet a clever boxer who has &@ punch, and unless the Eastern boxer is as good as he is said to be he will return home a disappointed man. Gilbert is a shoe machinery sales- man and is not dependent upon box- ing. but he likes the game and takes a fling at it now and then. He wi ” born St. Patrick’s day, 1887, in Man- chester, . H. He is a legitimate lightweight, entering the ring at 133 pounds or under. Gilbert Shaded Foley. In March, 1913, Gilbert outpointed Jimmy Foley for eight rounds in a bout that took place in St. Charles and was given the decision by Ref- eree Tommy Sullivan. Then, on the twenty-ninth of the same month Gilbert appeared at the Future City A. C. and won from Paddy Kelly on points. On, April 13 Gilbert outpointed Monte Dale and won a decision on points after eight rounds. About two weeks later he stopped Lew Ryall by a knockout in the seventh round. May 20, 1913, Gilbert boxed Lee Morrissey before the Future City A. Cc. and lost on an accidental foul in the first round. Ten days later he again boxed Morrissey, this time at St. Charles, and won by a knockout in the fifth round. Gilbert then boxed Jack Shelton an eight-round draw on July 4, 1913, at St. Charles, though he suffered a broken hand in the third round. The St. Charles boxer’sg last appear- ance in the ring was on March 306 of this year, when he knocked out “Kid” Farmer in | oe fifth round of a bout that took place in Springfield, I. Dorsey and Gilbert have agreed weigh 133 pounds at 3 Wednesday. King vs. Kelly in Semi-Final. Johnny King of Chicago is matched with Paddy Kelly for the semi-final, 8 rounds at 133 pounds.

After about 10 minutes of play in the initial encounter, the only ques- tion in the minds of the spectators Was as to how many points McKinley would run up on the Central team. The South Siders hopped out in the lead and Central trailed from the start. The score at the close of the first half was 21 to 7. McKinley con- tinued its annihilation of the mid- city team in the second half and to- taled 50 points before the game ended. McKinley Forwards Star.

German history and G3- many’s contributions to civilization, tory the Germans have proved them- selves to be a civilized nation of the first rank, and, one may say, THE civ- ilized nation.” Other utterances along similar lines are: One should not underestimate the spiritual achievements of other na- tions. At. the same time it is clear that in the course of modern history Germany’s genius has been respon- sible for the most decisive spiritual progress, and hag therefore been of universal importance. No other nation can point to achievements comparable to those of Germany. The value of German civilization re- poses on a twofold basis—the impar- tiality and universality of the Ger- man mind. No nation exists which thinks at the same time so clearly and so historically as does the Ger- man. Germans living abroad, Von Bernhard! writes, cannot continue an independent civilization. Bearing this in mind, he continues: We must confess with a bleeding heart that the political position of the German Empire does not in any way correspond with the pre-ermil- nence of German civilization and with the economic importance of Germanism abroad. Germany's geographical position, Von Bernhardi writes, is unbearable. He says in part} We are penned up. We are surrounded. by England, France and Russia, three enemies who are closely allied, and whenever we endeavor to increase our power we meet with their united and determined opposition. These three Powers have tied down Italy's forces in the Medi- terraneaniin such a manner that they can be only of little assist- ance to Germany in case of war. Only Austria-Hungary stands faithfully by our side. Turkey Necessary te Alliance. “The three hostile great Powers are unceasingly endeavoring to about the disintegration and the col- lapse of Turkey and to weaken that Power to the utmost. Now Turkey is a necessary adjunct to the Austro- German alliance. It is of the utmost importance for us to preserve Turkey and to make her powerful and effi- cient. That country is most neces- sary for us, both in war and peace, for military and economic reasons. The destruction: or the weak- ening of Turkey would directly damage our position and our power on the Continent of Eu- rope. It is impossible, continues’ the writer, for this state of things to be borne by “a great and proud na- tion possessed of great strength for war and of a great civilization.” Von Bernhardi is profligate with plausible arguments in support of his contention that Germany must dominate Europe. Reiterating that Germany oc- cuplies a very dangerous situation, he continues: “On nearly every side Germany is hedged in by hostile states whose united population exceed that of Germany. These states oppose Germany’s foreign policy with determined hostility, and place us ever and again before the choice of fighting or of going without. It is our foremost duty to make an end of this state of affairs. We must once more regain our political liberty or ac- tion before we can embark upon an active world policy. Larger Power in Europe. “We must obtain an unshakable_foun- dation for our position on ‘the Contfhent of Europe by enlarging the sphere of our power in Europe itself. Of course we should not think of a policy of con- quest. Such a policy would not be in harmony with the spirit of the time, and would not be to our true advantage. In Europe we can acquire. territories only by subjecting, their population by force and arousing among the people an undying hostility. “However, ft seems necessary to arrive at a final settlement with France, and it is quite possible to strengthen the Triple Alilance by enlarging it into a Central European Federation. “The individual states of which such a federation would be composed might retain their independence. The creation of such a federation would greatly im- rrove Germany's military position and would give a broader and stronger basis to our oversea policy.” Citing England's agreement with Ger- many for the partition of Pertuguese colonies and at the same time guaran- tceing to Portugal the possession of her ecvlonies and the taking of entire pro- vinces from China, as examples, Vou Bernhardi says: “It is important to observe that international law, as far as it is wencrally recognized, is applicable to only certain specified cases, and that arbitration treaties are con- cluded only with regard to certain closely defined eventualities. “Besides, frequently disputes do not concern questions of formal right and of law, but questions of biological and rroral right, which may stand in contra- diction with formal right and justice. m Morally Forfelts Congo. “For instance, Belgium possesses by formal right the Congo State. However, na that State does not do any civilizing and colonizing work in that country, but only exploits ft, it has lost the’ moral right to its possession. Hence the ques- ton arises whether from a higher bu- man point of view of justice Belgium should be allowed to enjoy the contin- ued possession of the Congo State, es- pecially as she has in no way fulfilled the international obligations regarding it which she had undertaken. Germany, on the other hand, has not sufficien: colonies, and as, in consequence of the ] great \t surplus of births over deaths, she bring. %, a eee ee ee eS ee, ee | I i a i ta Boa .

Ad- mitting that the United States is the chief offender, he writes: _ “There is @ great contrast between the views of the United States and Ger- many on the question of peace and war. The United States have conquered their independence and unity on the field of battle, and they have acquired a great heritage of glory, self-consciousness and liberty. At present the United States have many competitors, but no enemies. Their relations with England are se- cured by the community of language, not of race. Their difference with Japan cannot endanger their vital in- terests, should it come to war. America .

Why Americans Favor Peace. “The national wealth of the country makes the Americans independent of for- eign states, and their struggle with na- ture steels ir muscles and enables them to undertake the greatest and most difficult tasks. Under these circum- stances, it is only natural that the Americans look upon the peace move- ment with sympathy, for peace Can only bring them advantage while war can only harm them by impeding the de- velopment of the country and upsetting the money merket. Germany is in a totally different position. Since the col- lapse of the ancient»German qmpire the German nation has had to fight against its enemies. “In Germany the desire to preserve the peace has, since 1871, exerted an tn- favorable influence upon foreign pol- icy. The desire for peace has created a political situation in Germany which I cannot consider favorable to the country. The desire to preserve the peace which everywhere and always is placed in the foreground in Germany, seems to justify our faint-hearted peace policy. To sup- port such views can only do harm and is likely to lame public opinion. ‘We must strenuously combat the peace propaganda. War must regein its moral justification in the eyes of the public. It is necessary that its high significance as a powerful promoter of civilization should become generally rec- ognized. “In short, we must become convinced that a war fought for an ideal or fought with the intention of maintaining one > position in the world, is not a parbaric act, but the highest expression of true civilization, that war is a political ne- cessity, and that it is fought in the in- terest of biological, social and moral brogress.”’ — Captain of Hanalei Is Suspended.

LONDON, Nov. 27.—England probably never will lay down another dread- nought, says one of foremost ship- builders in this country, who cannot be quoted. All the dreadnoughts, according to this authority, which have been lajd down will be rushed to completion, but no orders will be given for any more vessels of this type. This policy was under serious consideration when the Audacious went to the bottom, and the recent loss of the Bulwark has served only to confirm the epinien that the When Sir Percy Scott expressed ’ doubts of the efficiency of the dread- rerimental, almost despised submarine has won most of the naval laurels.

Kelly Kellams, 38 years old, of 132A State street, Hast St. Louis, a lineman for the East St. Louis & Suburban, fell 85 feet from a steel tower of the high tension (Keokuk dam) power system, at Ninth street and Lake avenue, yester- day afternoon, and was killed. A cur- rent of 13,20 volts passed through his body and electrocuted him before he fell. Kellams was applying insulators to the high tension wires, five feet from the top of the tower, when his shoulder touched one of the uninsulated wires. His flesh was seared at the point where the heavy voltage passed into his body. No New Projects in Rivers Bill.

Members of Cabinet, Congress- men and Diplomatists at An- nual Feast of Fun. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—~Members of] 5 the Cabinet, Congressmen, diplomatists and leaders of activities of the nation's life gathered round the board here to- night at the Gridiron Club’s winter din- ner. President Wilson's earnest injunction to the American people to-refrain from rublic discussion of strictly regarded and the many satires and dramatic skits were within the shore lines of America. Uncle Sam’s wards were given oppor- tunity to air their grievances, for the most part in song, in a gathering de- scribed as “‘Uncile Sam’s Jubilee.” The negro complained of the workings of the civil service law which ‘has sen- tenced more good colored voters to the levees and cotton field than any other pernicious legislation.”” He also deplored the new primary laws, and, to the air o* “Old Uncle Ned,’ he sang: “There was an old delegate, his name was Uncle Ned. He lived long ago, long ago. He went to conventions whenever he wag bid, And that’s how he lived, long ago. CHORUS. ‘Then lay down the shovel and the hoe, And hang up the fiddle and the bow, There's no more work for poor Uncle Ned, The primaries laid him low.” Wanted Some Greenbacks. The farmer was another ward with a complaint. He wanted a bunch of green. backs. Up home he had a shed full of squashes and wanted the treasury to issue circulation notes on tnem. Two other wards were Col. Watterson and Cel. Harvey. ‘They had no grievances, tut expressed their contentment in x seng, the refrain of which was: “T’ve come back, come back, “I’ve come back, Dear Leader, to thee, to thee; “T’ve come back, come back, “I’ve come back, Dear Leader, to thee. ’ Among other wards, Alaska wante, to be shielded from exploitation of cap- italists. Hawaii called attention to Queen Liliuckalani’s lack of pension; Porta Rico wanted more Government jobs and a duty on sugar, and Filipino wanted tc know when, he would grow up and be independent. When he was chided and told he must not get hasty, ho replied: “Hasty! I’m gettin’ musty!” The politician complained that taxes had been laid on business paper, chew- ing gum, billiard rooms and circuges, while whisky had gone scot free, bDe- cause the bill had been passed in-Octo- ber and the election was in November. and, in a burst of satire, he sang: “If you have to lay a tax, “Don’t put it on rye. ‘Put it onto luxuries, ‘But keep it off rye. “Stick it onto chewing gum, “Or billiard cues, says I, “But, for the love of Mike, ‘‘Keep it off of rye.’’ A Realistic Prize Fight. A realistic prize ight was staged in the center of the dining hall and the spectators were treated to a lively mill. The stake was “a large house located at 1600 Pensylvania avenue,” and the principals were “Kid Democ- racy” and “Old G. O. P.,” the referee being “Bull Moose,” who announced his ability to lick both of the old parties. His decisions had never been questioned, “even when overruled by the Supreme Court,” A moving picture show enlivened the proceedings, representing ‘the greatest deliverative body on earth, the United Statex Senate,”’ tn session. A Roosevelt song, to the tune of “I’m on My Way to Mandalay,” fol- lowed with this chorus: “I'm on my way to Oyster Bay. “Beneath my sheltering roof I’ve got to stay. “I sing a song, “Of things gone wrong, “I’m no longer trusted, “They have got me flustered, “And the Big Stick’s busted, “That's why I’m on my way to Oyster Bay, “I've come to say good-by.” Old Spirits Come Home. “Old Home Week” brought together some old spirits. Uncle Joe Cannon among the first arrivals, when asked how long he was going to stay, re- plied: “Well; I didn’t buy no return ticket.” Cy Sulloway, another returning Congressman, announced that up his way “The hunting is poor, all the Bull Moose have been killed off.” When Nicholas 1 vialeldaadae appeared, Can- non inquired: “Hiow’'s the binslay, Nick? ‘em all to the celebration?" Longworth said: “All except father- in-law,” Cannon: Why don’t you persuade him te stay in some of those lonesome places he writes about? Lengwerth: There ain't no lone- somer place than Oyster Bay right now. When told that Secretary Daniels I beg you Bring ‘fhaé abolished the wine mess on war- ships during his absence from Wash- ington, Sulloway exclaimed: “That means no more inspection cruises by the Naval Committee.” war issues was

Correspondence of the Associated Press. THE HAGUE; Dec. 1.—When a battle is not in progress the best of feeling ap- pears to exist between the French and German soldiers who for two months have faced one another on the long line between Nieuport and Belfort. So close are the camps to each other that it is possible for the two ‘forces to exchange words. They indulge in good-natured contests such as shooting at spade targets, and compete for hares hitting anyone, and compete for hares which run between the lines. A French soldier writes of these amusements: “A target is painted on a spade and moved through our trench in such a way that It shows about two feet above the ground. The Germans shoot at it. With a stick we indicate the results of their fire and when one hits the bull’s- eye he is rewarded with the waving of a French flag. Rabbits Martyrs to Militartem. ‘“There is another sort of target prac- tice which is very popular. The region around us is full of cabbage flelds and the cabbage fields are full of hares and rabbits. These hares sometimes cross our own private meadow. Immediately beth trenches are all aflame. Long- sounding volleys follow the poor little beast. He makes a graceful somersault, throws his ears up in the air and falls a martyr to Europe's militarism. “Then comes the time to divide our spoils. If Brer Rabbit expires on the German half the custom of the country prescribes that a German may leave the trenches and get the prize. That day the German cave dwellers eat ‘hasen- braten.’ If the anima) dies on our side we delegate a man to fetch him and we eat ‘Livera faral.” But if he should die most inconsiderately right on the line then there is troubla. We both rush for our meal while a terrific fire. is opened and we run the risk of being killed by friend as well as by enemy. Trade Rabbit for Tebacco. “The other day we did not know on which side of the line a hare had died. We looked out of our trenches and the Germans fired. The Germans peeped around the corner and we fired. Finally a court of arbitration took the matter in hand. A loud German voice called out ‘tobacco.’ We thought that the pro- posal was fair. One of our men showed the Germans three packages of ciga- rettes. Then he climbed out of the trench and walked to the dead hare He deposited his cigarette and took the hare. Then he returned. A German came and took the tobacco. Five min- utes later the Germans were smoking and we were preparing our stew.” The camps frequently entertain each other with singing. And perhaps a few moments later the efforts of both sides will turn to whistling—bullets about one and another’s heads. NEGRO ACCUSED OF MURDER IS BURNED, TIED TO TREE, BY MOB Investigation Ordered Into Fifth Lynching im Louisiana Parish fin 10 Days. SHREVEPORT, La. Dec. 12.~—The charred remains of Watkins Lewis, the third negro to die at the hands of mobs as the result of the murder of Charles Hicks, postmaster at Sylvester, La., last week, were found today near Sylvester, bound to a tree with coils of wire. The burning of Lewis makes a total of eight lynchings in this parish in tne last year, five negroes having been put to death In the last 10 days. Tobe Lewis and Monroe Lewis were lynched last week for their alleged part in the Hicks murder. Before the fire was lighted, Lewis repeatedly was asked to confess his part in the crime or to divulge the hid- ing place of a large sum of money. seid to have been stolen from the post- master’s store, “I didn’t do it,” he screamed as the flames leaped about him. When the fire enveloped him the mob dispersed. District Judge T. F. Bell vrdered a grand jury to convene next Wednesday io attempt te identify mem. bers of the mob.

Dec. 12.—Edward lL. Doyle, secretary-treasurer of District 15 United Mine Workers of America, testi- fied before the Federal Commission on Industrial Relations today that the bulletins issued by Walter H. Fink, publicity agent for the miners, in the recent coal strike, were correct so far as he knew. The witness was asked if he had evi- dence to prove the charge that the Col- orado Fuel and Iron Co. controlled poli- tics in Huerfano County. He replied: “It is like asking a man ‘what is air.’ Everyone knows what it is, but when you want to demonstrate, you have to go into chemical formulas. Doyle narrated the story of his asso- clates two trials for contempt of court on charges of violating the injunction against the Northern Field Miners, which, he said, “prevented them from doing anything, but eating and sleep- ing.”’ The trials, he sald, were “farcical.” There was no jury. In the first case the unfon men were sentenced to a year in jail, and a fine. Before an appeal could be heard in the Supreme Court, Doyle testified, the convicting Judge released them. 3 Admitted Writing Articles. Following his second conviction Doyle said his jailer told him that the Judge would release him if he apologized for articles which he had written, and which appeared in the official organ of the United Mine Workers of America. The witness declared that he had been arrested for participation in a meeting forbidden by the injunction. In court, he added, the articles were read at the instance of the Judge, who asked him whether he was the author. Denial, he said, would have been perjury; admis. sion in the presence of the Court would have meant another charge. of contempt of court. He admitted the authorship he said, and the Judge ‘‘told the coal operators attorneys not the District At- torney, to get out a warrant.’”’ On this charge he was sentenced to a year in jail and fined $500. After four months in jail, within three days of the hear- ing of the appeal in the Supreme Court. the jailer had presented the request for a secret apology to the Judge and the witness declared he declined. The fol- lowing day he was released on the order of the Judge. The appeal was never argued. He did not know whether the sentence was remitted. The fine was never paid in either conviction. Reference to Rockefeller, There was no regular union supervi- sion of publicity work, Doyle said. The bulletins were entitled “‘The Strugzie In Colorado for Industrial Freedom,” and were issued after the operators had published “Facts About the Struggle in Colorado for Industrial Freedom.” J. F. Welborn, president of the Colo- rado Fuel and Iron Co. has asked the commissioners to ascertain the authority upon which the sentence in this booklet was based which read: ‘John D. Rockefeller Jr. had just preached the word of God to his Sun- day school in New York.’’ Statements in other bulletins declaring 84 persons had been killed on te strik- ers’ side did not refer. alone to the Lud- low casualties, he said. The witness could not confirm the statement that there were 1000 gunme1, imported into the State. They looked plentiful, he sald. Believed Statements True. Doyle declared the bulletins were ac- curate in his opinion when they accused Maj. Hamrock and Lieut. Linderfelt of deliberately attacking the Ludlow colony,‘ for the statement that there were twe machine guns at Ludlow. The statemert that Red Cross agents had been fired upon at Ladlow and driven back was true, he said, according to his information. He then read a list of union men who, he said, had been beaten up by mine ‘mas tmmorning. may cost a few cents more, but the danger of loss or damage is very much reduced.

The Government experts’ see indica- tions of the same evolution at work in the market poultry industry that finally did away with the locakslaughter houses and, in a large measure, with the local butcher. The outcome of this would be that the final handling of poultry would go to the great markets in the big cities, many miles away from the producer. This would mean a decided loss to pro- ducers, as there would then be very lit- tle competition. in the market for them. It would be a bad thing for the con- sumer, as it would widen the distance between him and the producer. . This would mean not only higher prices but also inferior meat, due to long shfpping distances. Already, department officials point out, the bulk of the live poultry shipped into Chicago is killed and dressed there and put onto the market as dressed poultry. Local Packing Houses Urged. A statement on this subject by a De- partment of Agriculture official is quot. ed, in part, as follows: “The poultry specialists believe that the poultry supply of large cities must come from shipments of poultry already dressed, and that as time goes on an increasing percentage of such poultry will be shipped in dressed form, while live shipments will gradually be limit- ed to poultry needed for religious or special uses. The reason for this ts they believe that to give the cities the best dressed poultry, local poultry pack- ing establishments in the producing sections should be encouraged. Th~ nearer to the farm the live chicken Is properly killed, chilled and packed the better will be its condition as poultry on arrival at the great market centers. ‘Poultry shipped alive 400 or 800 miles, even under the best conditions of feeding in transit, loses in weight, amounting in some cases to as much as 30 per cent. Chickens that have trav- eled long distances by rail reach the killing centers in a much worse condi- tion than live poultry which is simply sent a few miles to a local poultry packing establishment. In the latter case chickens arrive practically in farm condition and are fed from a few days to two weeks, with a resulting increaso rather than a decrease in weight. They are killed when they are in prime con- dition. Plants Encourage Better Breeds. “The local poultry packing establish- ment has been proved to have a decided influence on the standard of poultry in that neighborhood. In some cases local plants have vastly improved the gen- eral breed of chickens by inducing farm- ers to replace mongrels with utility breéds which command fancy prices as dressed poultry in Eastern markets. “The department specialists, therefore, are encouraging dressed poultry men not to centrajize their killing establish- ments and, instead of erecting one plant *tworth $30,000, to draw from a territory with a big radius, are advising them tc build instead three $10,000 packing plants in three different centers, each looking to a supply from a territory with a smaller radius that assures arrival of live chickens in excellent condition. “At the same time the department urges every local packing plant to in- stall mechanical refrigeration, buy poul- try on a quality basis and thereby, by price and example, stimulate local poul- try raisers to introduce first-class util- ity breeds.”’ Poultry ‘Show Calendar Secretaries desiring their shows listed in this calendar kindly address Poultry Editor, Post-Dispatch, St. Louis, Mo.

SAVANNAH, Ga., Dec. 12.—While ex- cavating for the foundation to the ad- dition of the Citizens and Southern branch bank, Liberty and Montgom- ery streets, workmen unearthed a can- non ball, which had pro2ably been bur- ied for more than a century and 4 quarter. The old relic has been presented to the Georgia Historical Society, by Mr. E. L. Schirm, cashier of the bank, to whom it was given by those discover- ing it. It is the belief of Mr. William Harden; librarian of the society, who is an authority of bistorical facts about Savannah, that the ball was identified with the Revolutionary days ef Savan- nah, Mr. Harden believes it was fired dur- ing the siege of Savannah in October, 1779, during the Revoiutionary War. Whether ft was fired by the British or American forces is a fact that cannot be positively established. The ball is a four or five-pounder, a size which would conform to the guns used in those days. The point where the siege of Savan- nah occurred has been marked by the Sons of the Revolution, the spot be- ing near the Central of. Geérgia depot. The place the ball was unearthed is only about the distance of two blocks from the place marked by the Sons of the Revolution. ; It is possible the ball was fired dur- ing the actual siege, or it may never have been fired, but left after the siege. The relic has been accepted by the Georgia Historical Society. It will be preserved by the society with the oth- er relics of the early history of Sa- vanneh now in possession of ane 80- ciety. | BOVERNMENT PLANS AN OKLAHOMA “OIL TRUST” Will Control Production Through Power to Cancel Leases With the Indians.

AIMS AT WOLF, KILLS DEER Latter Jumps in Line With Gun as Hunter Shoots. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Dec. 12.—Thte best hunting story of the season is told of Herbert Bruns, son of the proprietor of the St. Charlies Hotel, who has returned from a hunting trip in Oneida County, Wis. Bruns is credited with shooting at a wolf and killing a 210-pound deer. He was stationed in a clearing to watch for deer, which were known to be in that vicinity. He sat on a stump for several hours and was growing weary, when he heard & commotion in some un- derbdrush. The next instant a large gray wolf ran into the clearing. Bruns hastily grabbed his rifle. As he took aim, a large deer jumped into the clearing right in line with the wolf. He fired. The woif rcampered away. The deer fell.

Latterly the American has been stirred | by tales of atrocity in the eastern thea- ter of this conflict, tales which reveal helpless German women and children as the chief sufferers from Cossack eavagery. But sympathy, while creditable as an impulse, is of less importance than a judicial attitude of mind in determining | the relation of facts to one another when those facts determine the supreme | crisis in the annals of humanity. When we posseas the essential facts underly- ing this war in Europe we can bestow our sympathy intelligently and effec- tively. I appreciate perfectly the effect upon the American mind of the tales of hor- ror with which the world has been filled throughout these last few months of war. I understand the attitude of the newspaper reader in the United States toward weaker nations and help- less peoples. I realize the safictity in the American mind of treaty obliga- ‘ions. These considerations account fully to me for that generous impulse which ranged Americans on the side that first presented its cage and pre- sented it with rare ability. Germany’s Enemies Push Thetr Case. The sincefity of this impulse caused Americans, in fact, to forget for a time the great inconveniences they endured from the economic consequences of 80 great a struggle. Germany has not been the victim of any prejudice growing out of the stoppage of exporte or the collapse of industry. There was 4 natural anxiety for hosts of relatives and friends exiled in the theater of war. These things made their imprés- sion. Profounder, however, was the {m- pression growing out of the moral fac- tors in the case. The people of the United States asked themselves who could be responsible for such a crime against humanity as Was comprised in the outbreak of the war. Whose overpowering ambition took the world back to Napoleonism? How heavily all the available evidence was made to tell against Germany! Foremost as the champion of interna- tional honor stood England, protesting against an attitude that made a solemn treaty a mere scrap of paper. Russia was introduced next-as the disinterested friend of helpless little Servia. Austria- Hungary had dispatched a provocative ultimatum. France, wounded already by the loss of Alsace-Lorraine, was invaded to promote a fresh scheme of spolia- tion. 3 The great Powers might have been cast for parts in a tragedy by Schiller, so dramatic were the values. The heavy villain was invariably Germany. The ‘constituted according to a representative of * ‘a silent part by the obvious expedient of éxplanation is simple. England had herself stage manager, taking the precaution to etve Germany cutting her cable communication. London Censor Befogs the Issue. The device might have failed but for the London censor. All that reached him from Berlin was conscientiously edited or conscientiously suppressed. America was spoon fed with English versions of whatever Germany had to say for herself. Judgment, in the first few weeks of the war, went almost by default. At any rate {t was based on sympathy—very creditable sympathy— rather than upon facts judicially ascer- tained. Let me try to put quite briefly yet completely what I understand to be the moral case against Germany in this matter of the neutrality of Belgium. Germany, we are invited to believe, stands bound in honor not to violate the neutrality of Belgium. She has en- tered into a treaty containing this stip- ulation. In flat deflance of her pledged word she sent her forces through the territory which, upon her honor, she promised not to violate. I put the mat- ter as bluntly as I can and I think I state the case against Germany pre- cisely as her enemiés would make it out The facts behind this case are put differently by different authorities. Sir Edward Gray insists that the “govern- ing factor’ is the treaty of 1839. But the original treaty was made eight years earlier. ‘‘Belgium shall form an independent and perpetually neutral state, which shall be bound to observe such neutrality toward a!! other states.” That is the language of the original compact—the treaty not of 1839, but of 1831. Prussia signed it with Great Britain, Austria-Hungary, France and Russia. This was long before the German Em- pire cameé into existence. Yet much is made of the point that in 1870 Prussia renewed her engagement to respect the neutrality of Belgium. This, declared Sir Edward Grey, speaking to the Com- mons last August, “is valuable as a recognition on the part of Germany of the sacredness of these treaty rights.”’ I should like to be more exact than Sir Edward Grey. Where he says Ger- many I say Prussia. JI add a point which he overlooks altogether. The agreement whereby Prussia in 187 bound herself to respect the neutrality of Belgium Was by its own terme to ex- pire in one year after the termination of the war with France. That provision revived the terms of the ol@ arrange- ment of 1839. I think these are the main facta upon which the critics of Ger- many rest their indictment with refer- jence to the neutrality of Belgium. That 5 ie ae Be . Picea: | | | certainly is the British point of view. Let me try now to outiine the case from the German point of view: There are three stages in the life of a treaty. First comes its negotiation by the plenipotentiaries of the high con- tracting parties. Next we have its rat- ification by the competent authority at home, followed by an exchange of ratifi- cations between the high contracting parties. In the third place we have the application of the terms of the treaty te particular cases arising under it. This is the interpretation of the treaty. The interpretation of a treaty is gov- erned by a few elementary principles universally recognized. One of these ir tu the effect that no nation is morally bound by.the terms of an agreement involving either a sacrifice of its own existence or an abdication of its sov- creign function. It is to he presumed that no great power will solemnly bind itself to commit suicide. If the logical conclusion deducible from the letter of 9 treaty be the ruin af a high con- Atracting party the letter must give way. I am not stating anything new and strange. Let me cite here a passage from that speech to the Commons in which William ©. Gladstone reviewed the very treaty I am discussing. He was dealing with the neutrality of Bel- gium: “It is not necessary nor would time permit me to enter into the complicated question of the nature of the obliga- tions of that treaty; but I am not able to subscribe to the doctrine of those who have held in this House what plainly amounts to an assertion that the simple fact of the existence of a guarantee is binding on every party to it irrespectively nltogether of the par- ticular position in which it may find itself at the time when the occasion for acting on the guarantee arises. The great authorities upon foreign policy ++ whom I have been accustomed to listen, such as Lord Aberdeen and Lord Palm- erstone, never, to my knowledge, toox that rigid and, ff I may venture to say so, that impracticable view of the guar- antee.”’ Quotes Giadstone fm German USrief. Thus did William FE. Gladstone in 1870 dispose of the case made out on the basis of thé guarantee of Belgian neu- trality in 1839. I grant the terms of the treaty. I accept the English state- ment of its meaning. I deny that the German Empire, confronted by the crisis in its destiny of the first days of last August, was bound to respect Belgian neutrality in the letter of the guarantee by the King of Prussia in 1889. For my justification I refer first to the words of William E. Gladstone,. |which I have quoted already, and to the words of the United States Supreme Court, which I will quote next. Some years have elapsed since the agitation in this country over what were known at the time as the Chinese exclusion cases. A treaty h been ratified between the Government of Pekin on the one hand and the Govern- ment at Washington on the other. The letter of thie treaty permitted Chinese to become residents of the United States. The letter of the treaty went even further. Chinese residing in the United States were to have the privil- eges of person and property possessed by Americans generally. Time went on. Congress enacted the Chinese exclusion act. Pekin protested against such a fragrant violation, as it thought, of a treaty obligation. The episode at this stage illustrates the dif- ference between the letter of a treaty and the interpretation of a treaty. The case afrived in the end before the Su- preme Court at Washington. That august tribunal took into account, be- sides the language of the compact with China, the facts of the particular case under review and the altered circum- stances never contemplated by the high contracting parties. I give the words of the Court on the special point: Our Supreme Court’s Decision Cited. “It will not be presumed that the Legislative Department of the Govern- ment will lightly pass laws which are in conflict with the treaties of the coun- try; but that circumstances may arise which would .not only justify the Goy- ernment in disregarding their stipula- tions, but demand in the Interests of the country that it should do so there can be no question. Unexpected events may call for a change in the policy of the country.” The extract is brief but there fs noth- ing In the context of the decision to weaken the effect of these words. On the contrary, the Court cites precedents in the practice of the United States, a practice conforming to that mass of customs and of ethics which is all that international law amounts to. Its spe- cific instance waa afforded by the eman- cipation of the United States from the bondage of certain old treaties with the kingdom of France. The Congress of the new republic had enacted in this sense toward the end of President Washington's administration, the Supreme Court observing on the subject In the Chinese exclusion case that ‘‘whilst it would always be a mat- ter of the utmost gravity and delicacy tc refuse to execute a treaty, the power tc do 80 was a prerogative of which no nation could be deprived without deeply affecting its independence.” Welfare of People Must Prevati. Prudence as well as ‘morality will in- deed dictate to even the haughtilest na- tion the most scrupulous observance of both the letter and the sptrit ef every treaty. So much is necessitated not alone by the separhte interests of any one Power, but by its position as a member in the sisterhood of nations. Wanton disregard of its plighted faith would justify the expulsion of even the greatest Power from the community of civilization. But wanton disregard of the plighted faith given by the of a nation to its people cense- quences no less serious.

They are jconnected by a steam-heated’ tunnel, { Heat, light and part of the food will be purchased from the Barnes Hos- pital.

A few steps away is the examining room, Each pa- tient will be kept in a receiving room for several days’ observation. After this the child is assigned to one of the regular wards.

The chief of staff and internes will have quar- ters on the fifth floor. The isolation building 1s four sto- ries and was planned not only for the comfort and safety of the chil- dren but the mothers as well. A mother may stay in the hospital if her chila4 is in a serious condition as a special section has been pro- vided. The mother is summoned by the pressing of a button which rings a bell in her room.

It is expected that the étork will visit her about the Same time as Santa Claus. Miss Margaret Wilson, the head of her father’s household, could not leave the President: to be with her sister at Wil- Hamstown for Christmas, nor couid the President himself count positively upon a visit.of any length out of town, so the family party will meet at the White House, probably next week. The advent of a baby at the White House is an event so rare in its history of over a hundred years as to make it quite a remarkable incident. Mrs. Sayre’s wedding was the thirtcenth to take place there, but a baby born to her there would be only the eighth birth in the White House. The first child born in the President's house was James Madison Randolph, grandson of President Jefferson. The second was Mary Louise Adams, daugh- ter of President Adams’ son, John, in «ebruary, 1828. The christening of Mary Louise Adams was a thing of glory and took place in the east room, with almost the entire diplomatic corps present. Babies ceased to be a novelty in the esaministration of President Jackson, for four were born there to Col. and Mrs. andrew Jackson Donelson. Then there was a long lapse of years until the ad- vent of Esther Cleveland, the only child of a President ever born there, in Sep- tember, 1893. Who is the best dancer in St. Louis?

Gerald Stanley Lee So.he tried potatoes—a little idea about potatoes. Every boy’s father in the district was asked to stake off a corner of his garden for his children to plant an idea in as soon as they got one. ere The school.teacher had all the new practical ideas about how planting and cultivating should be done, and, of course, he worked in some arithmetic, physics and mechanics and a lot of soil geography and chem- istry—and reading and spelling to know things. The old folks grumbled a good deal about letting the children have a corner off the garden to have their own way in, and when they saw the things the children were doing to the ground and to the seeds they stood by while the children were doing them and laughed. The children didn’t say much. They just hoed and watered. And as time went on their gardens grew, and when a laughing father went out and looked at his garden in the early morning and then looked at Charlie’s he got soberer and soberer. | t Anybody can guess the rest. The fathers and mothers in School Dis- trict Number 17 in County, Mississippi could not keep on forever having their little boys proving to them right under their noses (right where they had to go out and look at jt every day) how much more they knew than papa did.¢ There is a limit to the amount of brooding a man eares to do, sitting on his fence looking at his own garden and then looking at Charlie’s. It was not long before the whole State of Mississippi had been gone over and interrupted in this way. It was not long before every father in Mississippi who had a little bey gradually knew as much about farm- * ing as his little boy did. it for granted that he had. a sure thing all the time while he was in- terrupting me. The only improve- ment I could suggest would have been to have had my wife interrupt and sew up the, pocket. The first principle of getting other people’s attention. is to do something for them that they will be glad of aferwards. Of course, the sooner they are glad the better; but if one studies the people one is interrupting and studies oneself and knows what one is about, one can afford to wait. Down in Mississippi a few years. ago the farmers were humdrumming along thinking they knew every- thing about farming. Nobody could tell them anything. The Agricul- Every farmer in the State who needed to be interrupted was at tended to. I do not know how the reader feels about this little story, but the first thing I did when I heard it was to put down in my own notebook, for my own use in interrupting, this bit of personal advice. . The way to get the attention of a man who does not want to give you his attention is to do what he is trying to do so much better than he can do it that he will have to look. Many a reader of the Sunday Post-Dispatch has probably found way to get the attention of a com- -petitor who does not take anything you say seriously, is to slip in on the tural Depattment tried to get in road just ahead of him just where he some of the modern. ideas about fer- tilizers and about planting seeds and : planning crops. Farming papers tried day and night, up and down the State to get themselves subscribed for, and the agents of the nurseries and seed men and all of the dear, beautiful salesmen of the harvesting com- panies did their noblest to try to get the attention of the struggling Mis- sissippi farmer to do something a little different from what he had always done before. The Agricultural Department dotted lecturers everywhere and in a kind of discouraged, plaintive way the great State of Mississippi kept at it from day to day. trying to persuade the farmers of Mississippi to make a little money. Nothing did ine good. The farmers of the good old State went calmly on, year after year, making one potato grow where two had grown before. ‘It was at this point that a school teacher in a little twenty foot school in a back distriet, who wasn’t interested in the agricultural problems of the State of Mississippi at all, and who was merely intcrested in doing what he could with boys’ and girls’ heads and in trying to make two ideas grow where one. had grown before, blundered into the discovery one day that the boys and girls in his district didn't care anything about ideas. They didn’t see ary reason. for having their heads full of them. This state of affairs made the teacher think. It eompelled him to have an idea bimself. He decided that the way to get an idea into a boy's head was to give him a chance to use it the moment he got it there. He made up his mind he didn’t care much what the idea was, so that PAGE TWO. / Gees expects to be and wants to be, and then keep on ahead quietly and let him: study your back. If you keep your back firmly before him you won’t need to show. your face.. Your back will speak more eloquently to him than your face. After he has - sweated and puffed enough to keep your back barely in sight, and while he still has a chance to study it, he grows softly attentive and willing. Any man you have kept for several miles studying your back can be counted on to have a considerable interest in the other side of you. He will be humbly grateful to ijook in your eyes, to study your face and listen to your words, and to know all you know and to think all you think. It-need not be done in an unfriendly spirit... The same principle hokds good in getting the attention of an empleye who is humdrumming along (as most of us are apt to do) and thinks he knows just what his ‘ employer is like and just how little his employer really cares for him. It is a rare employe who cannot be interrupted in his routine of not ex- pecting anything much of his employer by having his employer render him some unexpected service or show some unexpected sign of real and intelligent interest in his life. oa And it works both ways, of course. The best way to get the attention of one’s employer, or to interrupt his routine of not expecting anything of ene, is to think of something for him or for the works or for one’s own job that. he would never have thought of himself. : The best way to intcrrupt people and t© attract their attention is to outdo them—and to outdo oneself. , i | SUNDAY MAGAZINE --ST.

Since the inauguration of the Post-Dispatch Christmas Festival Fund —she has _ been one of the most active and _ invaluable workers in this philanthropy. But for years previous she played Santa-Claus alone by passing on Christmas eve through the dreary alleys of her district and leaving, an orange er a sack of candy to be placed in the stock-? ings of poor children, who would otherwise have no vestige of the year’s happiest holiday. _ Naturally, her Christmas reminiscences are legion, and one and alk de justice to that quality of heart, that liveliness of sympathy, which explains the extraordinary hold she en- joys upon the affections of the people among whom she . bas toiled for so many years. ~ One story strikes the keynote of her character. She graduated from no ‘ social] settlement” courses in a col- lege, and does not belong te the modern “efficiency” school of social workers, of whom she_says, with the slightest touch of awe, that they “count everything up in figures.”” Her knowledge of the conditions and needs of the poor was gained in the university of- the streets and tenements. . . One of the “efficient” busybodies once asked her: “Do you preach the gospel of soap and water to the people you visit?” - . “Mercy, no!” replied Sue eieiiie aghast. “Don't you teach them better methods of keeping house?” continued the questioner. “No, indeed,” said Mrs. Owens,’and explained:. “‘Do you think I would go into your home in the West End and criticise your housekeeping? |! try to be as polite to poor people in their hovels as I would be'to rich in their homes. I try to teach Christianity to the poor, and the other things adjust themselves afterwards.” Illustrating the method which she considers better, she was, during the Christmas holidays a few years ago, summoned to the bedside of a woman who be- lieved she was about to die ‘and who wanted “Sister Sue” to pray for ber. She found the woman fying in a cellar so incredibly filthy that she asked herself: “Can I kneel down to pray in such a place?” -Bnt a moment later she reproached herself, saying: “How active, has, on each Christmas for 34 years taken holiday cheer into hundreds of poor homes w Anecdotes of her many- char table Yuletides show bigness of heart : which has endeared her to unfortunates arriong whom she has made her life work if she did she would have nothing, but was finally per- suaded. As the widow’s mite clinked.in the box, she said: “Now I feel better. I believe that God will bless my three pennies.” “He certainly will,” said the missionary, and led the woman into a room and overjoyed her by telling her to ‘take her pick of an array-of tempting baskets which stood there. Each contained a chicken, two loaves of bread, cranberries, corn, tomatoes and a half pound school connected with the mission gave a Christmas tree entertainment ~at the First Methodist Church, which stood at Eighth street and Washington avenue. There were three big Christmas trees, and to serve them were Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus and three . pudgy little Santas, the juvenile images of their jovial papa. The hall was gay with lights and bunting, and the trees were powdered with artificial snow. -On Eighth street lived a family almost desti- tute,.with a little girl who was ill and slowly dyings She begged her mother to take her to _ the entertainment, and was carried into the festive ball. At the sight of its iliuminations and its glittering Socoraticnis, the little sick girl exclaimed rapturously: _“Mamma,.is this heaven?” A week later she died. Mrs. Owens tells of another holiday season when a destitute and sick old woman, bethinking herself that she was entitled to a pensidh as the widow of « Union soldier, decided to write'a letter to the President, who was Chester A. Arthur. She showed the letter to the missionary, who was shocked to see that it began with the salutation,” *Dear Chester.” The writer defended her- of candy.

Their lodks showed that such a menu would be most _ ynwelcome, and they asked Mrs. Owens for her sug- gestions. “I would give every family a chicken, and every large family’ two chickens,” she said. “Chicken!” echoed the men .in amazement. “Well, turkey, then, if you prefer it,” Mrs. Owens said, sweetly. “And two loaves of bread for a small family and four for a jlarge one—and cranberries, and corn, and tomatoes, and—oh, yes, a half-pound box of candy in every bask a —— UAWMRS- Sue OWENS IL YD} and the cheer of (hristmas filled the hearts of children who would otherwise haye gone hungry...

At that time the churches were beginning their west- ernly exodus, leaving the downtown’ part of the city without spiritual leadership.

” Newspapers,. ‘societies, ul? prom. ‘inént persons dispute the claims + of Esther : Clark. and Mrs. Clark. Karke ) ID Miss eS Mary Clark of Chanute. Kan., write the poem, “The Call of Kansas,” or was it written by Mrs. T. J. ' Karr (who was Emma Clark) of Girard, Kan.? Each of these women claims that she wrote it. And the entire State of Kansas has taken up the argu- ll ment, being about evenly ie in favor of the two women. Women who never took an asia interest in poli- tics are eagerly- discussing the authorship of “The Call of Kangas.” Friends and neighbors: have come, to loggerheads over it. Literary clubs that have rolled along in the utmost peace and harmony for years are divided among themselves. The two Kansas * (women who claim ‘authorship of -this classic poem of the Sunflower State are of unimpeacha- ble honesty.” Each has written verse since childhood and each has had her verses printed in newspavers and magazines. Each asserts with the utmost positive- ness that she is the author of the poem. The poem has been going the rounds of the Kansas newspapers for eight years and is pasted in thousands of scrapbooks in ‘that State, and has been*recited thou- . gands 6f times at entertainments, and the authorshin of it was hever disputed until May of this year. The dispute has waxed .so warm that the State His- torical Society has taken it up and has demanded that each of the women claimants to its authorship file af- fidavits and proof of having @f:tten it, The W. C. T. U. of the State has adopted a resolu- tion .declaring that Esther Clark wrote the poem. The Anti-Horsethief So- -“eliety of Kansas City has done the same thing. Countless numbers of literary societies‘ in small towns ,in . Kansas have passed resolutions one way or another, the sentiment being about evenly divided . between Miss Clark .and Mrs. Clark-Karr. The newspapers are in the fight with their heavi- est broadsides. The Trib- une of Chanute, the home town of Miss Clark, has publicly scored Mrs. Clark- Karr of Girard as “That woman from Girard, a modern Sapphira.” m William Allen White, the bard of Emporia, has written several editorials in his paper, The Gazette,: declaring that Miss Clark is undoubtedly the author of the poem. J. L. Brady, editor of the Journal-World of Law- rence, the Universify town of Kansas, nas videred a reward of $100 in his‘ paper to any person who will produce any periodical anywhere containing the poem prior to 1907, when Miss Esther Clark first. published it in his paper. The hewspapers of Kansas City, which, although in Missouri, is really the metropolis of Kansas, have got into the controversy, too. -Th Kansas City Journal - gays that Miss Esther Clark wrote the poem. The Kan- sas City Star, while not speaking in’ such positive terms as the Journal, yet leans to the belief that Mrs. T. J. Karr of Girard wrete the poem. Now, as to the two women who claim authorship of this poem: Esther Mary Clark is 30 years old. She was a school teacher and took the course in jouranlism in the Kansas University in Lawrence and in 1907 went to Southern California and engaged in newspaper work. Four years ago she returned to Kansas and since then has been engaged at the university in the library exten- sion work. She is a member of the Episcopal Church. William Allen White. wrote of her: | “When she wrote this poem she was a ae sensitive and kindly girl, who probably never realized—and does not now understand—how beautifully she chose the words and turned the stanzas into a real SUNDAY MAGAZINE 3-7 ST. ‘LOUIS, POST-DISPATCH DECKMBEB US, 19th ¢ “i , op: a se .

Kansas this fall. In Girard no one doubts that. Mrs. Clark-Karr wrote ‘the poem and that is an indication of how she is regarded there. The claim of Mrs. Clark- Karr is that in 1899, while she was Miss Emma Clark and a school ‘teacher in Hutchinson, Kan., she at- tended a national teachers’ association meeting in Los & Angeles’ and. visited Cata-.. Bee lina Island. She became ill . and very homesick for Kan- sas and while in her room wrote the poem, “The Call to Kansas.” That evening she wrote to her’ mother in Kansas and inclosed_ the poem in the letter. Her mother was a friend of the mother of A. S. Nettleton, then editor of the Hutchin- son Gazette, and when Mrs. Clark read the poem:to her, Mrs. Nettleton asked, for a copy of it that her son «4 Might print it in his paper. ‘4 This was given her and it waq is claimed, the poem was - printed in that paper at that’ time. Mr. Nettleton says ASS ESTHER CLARK that he distinctly remem: vers the appearance of the poem and. that the printer had misspelled the name Emma and made it appear Esther. Mrs. Clark-Karr says that she almost forgot the poem and never saw it in print until last May. when a friend handed her a copy of “The Voice of the Prairie” to read gene 5 AMOUS CONTROVERSIES OVER THE AUTHORSHIP OF POEMS include fhe fol- lowing: “Laugh and the World . {pare With You, ” claimed by four or five different authors, is now credited to Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Her chief opponent was John A. Joyce. “All Quiet Along the Potomac Tonight,” was claimed by Ethel Lynn Boers and by Lamar. Fon- tain, and each had plenty of unimpeached integ- rity to sustain his claim. “Rock Me to Sleep,” was claimed | by - two different authors. John J. Ingalls, the greatest ase statesman and writer, had his authorship of “Opportunity” disputed many times both before and since his death. Walk Whitman and Mary Mapes Dodge had a stirring. dispute about a little poem: “The Two Mysteries.” The authorship of Shakspeare’s plays eae been ascribed to Francis Bacon (Lord Verulam), Chris- topher ar Sir Walter Raleigh and other con- = * KNOW of Kansas” One claimant says she wrote it in 1899, at - Los Angeles; the ~ other says she wrote it. in ~ 1907, also in Los Angeles and she -was astonished to find her poem printed at the beginning of that book and with the name Esther Clark signed.to it. Then it was that Mrs. Clark-Karr claimed that she, and not Miss Esther Clark, was the author of the poem. Her contention was printed and the newspapers of the State took it up and spread the controversy. Miss Esther Clark claims that while she waa_in Los Angeles, in 1907, doing newspaper work, she me very homesick and that she wrote the poem and sent it to the Lawrence Journal-World, where it was pub- lished, "but without a name signed éo it. It was instant- ly recognized as classic and was copied in nearly all the papers of Kansas and curiosity became so keen to know the authorship of it that J. L. Brady, editor of the Lawrence paper, wrote to Miss Clark asking her to give him permission to tell who wrote it. She gave that per- - mission in a pretty little letter, which was printed in the’ Journal-World and since then the poem has been always credited to Miss Esther Clark. - “it was in one sleepless night that the line ‘The voice of the prairie calling me,’ first came*to me, as a single line always does, in every poem I have ever written,” ‘ays Miss Clark. “I worked on it that night and off ‘and on for several nights after that, and took down what I had composed on a typewriter that I kept in the ' parlor of the house. One afternoon I was going to vall on two’ former Chanute friends and it was just‘a half block from where the car stopped to let me off that I completed it to my satisfaction. I remember well. in- deed, how the tears ran down my face and how I had cried myself to sleep in pure homesickness, while com- pesing it.” ' Mrs. S. J. Haldeman, who has a bank in Girard, Kan., _ and is the only women banker in that State, and is also a sister of Miss Jane Addams of Hull House, has made affidavit that she ~- found the poem in some newspaper in Kansas. she ; forgets what one, and that she read it to her hus- band prior to his death in 1905. Only one thing will set- tle the controversy now, and that is for the poem to be found in print before the year 1907. The files’of the Hutchinson Gazette in the State Historical So- - ciety Library lacked cer- tain dates in 1899 and it was thought that the poem was printed on one of the missing dates; but the pub- lishers of the Gazette have a complete file and Kather- ine Lasley, one of the edi- tors, has made affidavit that she searched but could not find any pocm by Mrs.Karr. When the friends of Miss Esther Clark triumphantly make the point that it would be impossible for such a poem as “The Call of Kansas” to remain obscured for eight years, Mrs. Karr’s friends triwaphantly point out that the famous “Bivouac of the Lead” remained in obscurity for 14 years—from the time the author, Theodore O’Hara, recited it to a little circle of friends until the Louisville papers printed it, 14 years later. ERBERT CAVANESS has printed a book in ad- vocacy of Miss Esther Mary Clark's claim to authorship of the poem. It contains the poem in question, a brief and argument for Miss: Clark by S. W. Brewster, done in proper legal form, other poems by Miss Clark which show her metrical ski and opinions in her favor by Judges James W. Finley and L. Stillwell. A part of the brief is a de- tailed deposition by Mies Clark telling how she wrote and published the verses in 1907; how it was later print- ed on a folder, on postal cards, in 1910 printed in her book, “The Call of Kansas and Other Verses:” how it was igsued in booklet form to the number of 10,090, was printed on an insurance company’s folder, was used on fancy place cards, and was done decoratively to be framed by the dozens. She also told of the many news- papers which had reprinted the verses with her name attached, and of the numerous times she recited it de- fore women’s clubs ard other organizations. During all this time and in spite of this lavish pub- lication she had ne intimation that anyone claimed sive | had not written the verses. “Sometime in April, 1914, I received a letter from Mrs. 8S.

HEN the children - of the old man were young the boys had their steam cars and locoma. tives, and the girls rib- bons and dolls, while at Christmas the tree was full of beautiful toys and candies: = children. ‘ When the old man was a young father, strong and powerful, and with money in . his purse, no wish a child expressed was denied; but when the children ‘are crown, and the old man has become feeble and perhaps sick; and especially if he cannot jingle the cash, the toys and Christmas trees of years ago are forgotten, and the principle thought of the family, is that ene oid man who sleeps over'the kitchen is a nuisance. There are some foolish aes € in this eh and there are some real fools who buy gold bricks or invest in farm land 1000 miles: away, which on investigation, is found to be covered with water 16 feet deep. These are real fools, but there is one fool who heads the list, and he is the man who made money, and who, while yet in the full - posses- sion of his faculties, divides his fortune among his children, feeling that they will take care of him in his old days. The chances of that old man sleeping over the kitchen are good. The dog in the back yard will frequently do better, be- cause he will get plenty to eat; the chauffeur will whistle to bim and the boys will pat bim on the baek. When the old man gets sick in bed the trying time comes to him. He needs attention, but the members of the family are busy, and a trained nurse is too expensive. There have been trained nurses im the house on several oecasions, but, of course, that was different. Of course that was different. way is different if it is the old man who is sick. If he does not mend quickly, some member of the family is likely to ask the doctor if he cannot “give him something; it is a pity to see him ‘suffer so much!” Can’t Make Him Forget. ES, the doctor can relieve the physical pains, but with- out taking away his consciousness he cannot make him forget the unkindness and neglect to which he is subjected every moment that he is awake, When he sees scowls on the faces of his children, whom, with the mott er, he nursed through many long days and nights of sickness, he sometimes thinks of the dog @ the back yard having his head patted. .

There are instances in pleaty where age is accorded the right to live; but it is unde- niably true that there is no one among us who can- not look around among his acquaintances and count at least: two or three old peo- ple who are so plainly in the way that there can be no doubt as to their position toward life—toward life, for they are considered no longer a part of it. They are looked on as already out of it. I am not speaking of those pushed off into “homes,” - nor of the penniless old parents who failed to lay up for this lonesome time, but* of fathers and mothers who simply are not wanted around because they are old, and momsorianee because their health is gone. will always be called: ‘dear father.’ ” Disrespect Hurts Most. NGRATITUDE is’ bad enouch, certainly; but there is a. peculiar sting in dis- ‘respect. It is manifested in so many little ways, too. Possibly some are un- conscious; but these, perhaps hurt most of all. To be disregarded to the point where we are not in the least considered: to be conscious that we count absolutely not at all with other people, that is “the most unkindest cut of all.” And this is the common lot of grandfathers and grandmothers -who make their homes with | their sons and daughters. I have introduced notes on euthanasia because the subject mat- * ter of my paper and that of putting away useless people are akin. The difference being that the real believers in euthanasia say so, and would have useless people legally murdered if of could do so, while those who keep the old man who sleeps in the garret because they fear to kill him are just ag guilty of wrong as those who say so openly. The old man who could not stay up in the tree was immediately killed by“his savage brothers. The Indians left theif old behind them to be devoured by wild beasts; they died horribly but quickly. But the old man of today, where there is ‘no room in the home for him, dies slowly, but just as surely as if the wild beasts had eaten him. Neglect, cruelty and ingratitude will kill *ist as surely as will the weapons of death made for that purpose. The old man was young once, and as his children neglected and dishonored him. so will his children’s children neglect and dishonor their parents when they get to be useless old men and women.

But there is another case of a transmitted pe- culiarity in a royal race which is even more remarkable, though from its nature it’ has remained a profound. , Secret from the public.” “You arouse my curiosity,” I observed. “I feel certain that you will be indulgent = to explain what it is that you refer to.” ’ The Ambassador frowned with seriousness before re- plying: . _ “The matter is cne of some delicacy, and my know!]- edge on the point was acquired under circumstances of ‘a very distressing, and eyen horrible, nature. Still, if you really wish to hear this story, I do not khow that there now exists any reason why I should not confide _it to your discretinn.” “My dear Ambassador! Before, I théught you were -going to be merely interesting; now you are becoming positively fascinating. Let me entreat you to go on.” “But this place is too warm,” he objected—we had been dining together in the Cafe Bruhl. “I propose that we take our‘coffee on the boulevard. It amuses me to sit among these Parisians, and to imagine that I am a young man.” “In fact, Your Excellency is one,” I feplied, rising to accompany him—‘‘a little disguised, perhaps.” “L am -sure of that,” retorted the Ambassador, who, however, did not appear to be displeased. We came out into the open air and seated ourselves in front of a small table with a marblé surface, which a waiter diligently wiped with his napkin, before pro- ecceding to bring us our refreshments. The night was mild and the numerous lights of the boulevard were muffled by a faint mist, which softened the voices of the passersby. The Ambassador leaned forward with one arm resting on the table and his hat set back from his forehead. “It was on a night like this,” be began, “only more close and sultry, that I had what is perhaps the most bizarre experience of my life. It was when I was at- tached, in the capacity of secretary, to our embassy in Constantinople.” “In Constantinople!” I exclaimed. have been many years ago?” ‘“In fact it was. -Abdul Aziz was still on the throne.

Russia was already preparing to'draw the sword, eand it was believed in some Quarters that England would not consent to remain a passive spectator of the struggle. The entire weight of France was being thrown into the scale to avert this contingency, and I have reason to believe that it was the serviees which I was “But that must _-able to render to the republic during this crisis which led to my being intrusted with my first embassy. “Our desire, of course, was to keep Russia strong, to act as a restraint on Prussia; and in this task I found myself pitted against your celebrated Minister, Lord Peaconsfield, He was a great man, let me tell you, who succeeded in obtaining for himself a European. vogue second only to that of Bismarck. But of my labors in this direction 1 must not speak. “To return to the night which I have already referred to: I had sauntered out from the embassy quite late, and after walking through the streets of Pera for an bour, I wag seized by an impulse to cross over the Gold- en Horn and explore old Stamboul. It was perhaps a rash proceeding at such a time, but I had accustomed myself to these nocturnal rambles, in which, for greater safety, I~wore a Mohammedan costume. “Doubtless you have read those delightful ‘Arabian Nights’ and can figure to yourself the enchantment of wandering throdgh an Eastern city in the silent hours, when the moonlight falls softly on the tapering min- arets and on the high walls of mysterious gardens in which veiled beauties recline beside marble fountains and listen to the songs of divine birds.” Carried .away by these reminiscences, my companion slowed his voice to sink into a murmur, And appeared to have forgotten his surroundings, until he was aroused trom his reverie by the loud rattle of a passing omni- vus. He strajghtened himself up and gazed,out at the wustling stream of civilizatiog which flowed past us, with the air of one to whom it was unfamiliar. It was the hour when the theaters commence their perform- ances, and -the pavements were crowded with gaily shattering playgoers. “Pardon my abstraction,” said the Ambassador at length, in a more crdinary tone. “You amuse yourself, doubtless, with the belief that it was not merely to indulge in poetical meditations that I made these ex- cursions. Ah, well. You will permit me to say that some of those Circassians are charming women, and less cruelly disposed towards the Feringhee than their brutal and suspicious husbands. “The fact is that the scenes which I am about to de- ecribe present a contrast so complete to this in which we find ourselves, that I begin to fear that my story will have an improbable air.” “Not in the least,” I answered reassuringly. “I am myself a mah of strong imagination.

I.was sauntering slowly down one of these lanes when I perceived in front of me, at a: point where the shadows of a tall ilex fell across the white surface of the road, a group of those dogs which infested Con- stantinople. They were quarreling over some object which lay on the roadway in the center of the black patch of shadow. Save for the presence of the dogs the whole neighborhood appeared to. be absolutely deserted. “I advanced. toward the spot, endeavoring to make out the nature of the objeet which had attracte@ these carnivorous brutes. As I got nearer I perceived it to be a slipper of the pattern usually worn in Turkey. My curiosity was now strongly roused. I stepped into the midst of the growling curs, and. drove them off with a few blows of’a stick which I carried. Then I stooped down to pick up -this mysterious object. ~, re O sooner had my hand touched it that I started back with a veritable thrill of horror. The slipper contained a human foot! “My first impulse on making this terrible discovery. was to turm-4nd fly from the place. But a dreadful fascination, which. iI could not‘ overcome, rooted pe me to the spot, and even compelled me to make a closer examination. I stooped down, peering in-the dim light, and asking myself with a beating heart how this sev- ered foot had come.to be exposed there on that lonely path, as if it . were the, Gamalng evidence of -some strange crime. “As I gazed at it dine. I became aware that the foot chad for some time eeased to bleed. -It had been cut off at the ankle, and the dry blood was heginning to congeal over the sévered veins and arteries. I looked on the ground beside it for stains of blood, but not one was visible. I extended my circle, and scrutinized. all around it with care, but thé result, was the same. “Of one fact I was now positively assured. This foot which I beheld on the ground had not been cut off the human being to whom it belonged at this place, nor perhaps anywhere in the neighborhood. It had been brought here, doubtless, under the influence of some strong fear, by one who felt it necessary to rid himself of its possession without a moment’s delay. ‘“‘Profoundly :execited by these reflections, I began to try and put together for myself the circumstances of the tragedy to which this ghastly relic was the index. I asked myself what had become of the man on whom so barbarots an outrage had been inflicted. If he had been murdered it was his corpse which I should have found lying in the roadway. It was therefore clear to me that he must be still alive, that he had escaped, . probably by the sid of others. frem the scene of his mainiing, and that it was perhaps the dread of his’ future vengeance which had instigated the hurried and secret disposal of the object which I had found. “Under what circumstances, then, had this act been perpetrated? y difficult to find an answer; I could only surmise that savage To’ this question it was more“ suddenly split in a blinding fissure of forked lightning, while a crash of thunder shook the towers and roofs of Stambeul like an earthquake. Immediately the rain be gan to descend with the weight of an avalanche, and huge pools instantly formed themselves along the roads I rashed through thé storm as best I could, and reached the embassy in safety. “Even. then, however, the alarms of that fearful night were not at an end. I had been lying in bed, yn- able to sleep, for an hour. or two, when all at once 1 ‘heard the well-known boom of cannon answering the thunder overhead. I listened and again and again the sound was repeated, till a hundred canndén had gone: off in the darkness; and, finally, the storm passed away like a routed, army, and the gray dawn came stealing over the Black Sea. | “That night has since become historical. night of May 29.” The Ambassador broke off.and leaned back in his chair, as if he had explained everything. At this mo- ment the waiter returned with the cognac. “That is the worst of these northern climates,” re- marked His Excellency, as he lifted the glass between his finger and thumb, and scrutinized the liquor; “‘it is necessary to take these things to keep up the tem- rature of the blood. Now in the South the sun does all that for one, and consequently Mohammed was quite right to forbid wine to his followers.” “Pardon me, my dear Ambassador,” I said, “but my knowledge of the almanac is less profound than you imagine. The only event connected in my mind with the date you have named is the concealment of King Charles II in an oak from the pursuit of Cromwell’s soldiery, an event which it was my custom as a boy to commemorate by wearing a sprig of oak leaves in my cap. Be good enough to tell me more.” His Excellency 1egarded me with a look of pity for my shortcomings, as he replied: “The night I have described was that on which Abdul- Aziz Khan, the Refuge of the World and the Shadow of God, was forcibly déposed’ from the Sultanate and made a captive in his own palace. “As soon as morning had come, the news of what had taken place was all over Constantinople... It did not take the diplomatists in Pera wholly by surprise. For some time past Abdul*Aziz had been unpopular with his subjects. To him had been attributed the misfortunes which were ‘gathering round Turkey, and which seemed to threaten the dissolution of the empire. There had been more than one armed outbreak in the capital, min- istry after ministry had been set up, only to be thrown down, and a feeling of unrest was in all men’s minds. “It appeared that this state of things had culminated in the meeting of a secret council of the great pashas at the seraskierate, which is, as you are aware, the headquarters of the army. ‘ 6 HE council had been called suddenly, in the dead of night, by Mehemed Rushdi Pasha, It was the the Grand Vizier, but for whom, it was said, the revolution would have taken place before. “At this council the principal ulemas of the Moslem the man who had suffered so dreadful a punishment faith attended, and the head of their body, the Sheik- had been engaged in some seeret and unlawful enter- ul-Islam, officially pronounced that a commander of prise, in the course of which he had found himself fatal- the faithful might be lawfully deposed.

However, a very strong force of troops had _ been brought together by the: Vizier with a promptness which in itself was capable “of an evil interpretation, and there was no open dis- order. “In the palace I found members of all the principal foreign embassies, promi- nent among them being, of course, the representatives. of Russia and England. As soon as we were aill gathered, we were taken into the presence of Me- hemed Rushdi, who received us with a great display of sincerity, and who appeared, moreover, to be really af- fected by this sad event. FTER making a se little statement to us, which was practical a repiti- tion of what he had said already through his mes- senger, he had handed ts over to Said Pasha, the Im- perial Chamberlain, who conducted us to the apart- / ment in which, so he assured us, the Sultan’s body had been discovered. “It was a small and mean- ly furnished chamber, im- mediately adjoining the women’s apartments, and looking out on a deserted courtyard. On a_ divan, against the wall, lay the body, cevered as far up as the chest with a cloth or pall of black silk em)roid- ered with gold. The left arm was bare, and hung down by the side, showing a deep wound above the elbow, evidently made by po'nted instrument. The scissors with which, according to Said Pasha, the unfortunate monarch had taken his life, lay, still caked with blood, upon a small table by the head of the corpse. “ ‘His Majesty,’ cxplained the pasha, ‘sent across te his mother early thie merning—as soon as he hd arisen, in fact—for these scissors, on the pretext that he wished to trim his beard. No sooner had he received them than he appears to have retired into this room, where. he was not lkely te be dieturbed by his attend- - ants for some time. It was two hours before his strange absence excited attention. A. searth wes instituted, and he was discovered tying in the posture which you see, with an immense pool of blood upon the floor, in which the scissors were lying.’ “While the pasha was giving us this explanation I ‘had withdrawn a little apart from the others, and was closely examining this corpse, which represented the morarch of a vast empire. As my eyes traveled slowly over the object on the divan, they were suddenly ar- rested by an extraordinary feature. “T have said that the lower part of the body was cov- ered by an embroidered cloth. You will easily picture to yourself the folds which this drapery would naturally have assumed in resting on the body’s upturned feet. What I now perceived was the dreadful and startling fact that the cloth in this-place rested upon only one point, instead of two. “I waited to make sure that no one was observing me. Then I stepped swiftly to the side of the divan, and pressed my hand upon the place. My terrible sus- picion proved to be correct.

Forbes found no chance to see Mrs. Enslee. Their meeting would have been perilous. The Am- . baseador had received his death-stroke in their ~ Physicians, police, reporters, all demanded minute descriptions of the event, and from the first Forbes blurred the account so that Persis should not be drawn into it. He emphasized the strenuous diplo- matic labors of the last week and the final afternoon. He italicized the presence of Mr. Enslee at the moment of death, which came, he said, without immediate ex- planation. He described how the Ambassador's father had died—just died while pulling on his overshoes. Persis had been soft-hearted enough to feel the pity of the Ambassador's death. She had wept a little for her stricken’ enemy, and she suffered some acute stabs of repentance as the instrument of his assassination. But regret was mingled with the lilt of victory and successful evasion—even with blasphemous prayers of gratitude to the Lord for saving her from exposure in the matter. She had fallen on her. knees to pour out this thanksgiving, and piously. or impiously promised her Lord not to be indiscreet again. She went to the Ambassador's funeral, partly as a tribute of awesome esteem, partly as good sportsman- ship toward a beaten adversary, and chiefly because it would have been conspicuous.to stay away when almost every other American in Paris was sure to be there. She compelled Willie to go along, an unwilling and unwitting chaperon. ; She saweForbes in the church, but at a distance, and noted with a gush of pity how haggard and lonely he seemed. She hoped that not all of his grief was for hig dead friend. She longed to go to him with com- fort, but she ventured only a nod from afar and one. of her slow, sweet, tender smiles. Forbes had been kept intensely active at the Em- bassy, where the Consul took over the interrupted duties of the Ambassador's office, but left -to Forbes the per- sonal details of the funeral ceremony, the closing up of the house, and the arrangements for getting Mildred back to New York. ’ The Ambassador’s body was to be taken home to America on board a warship profered by the French republic. For three days Forbes was too grimly busy und~too grief-stricken to feel more than a longing to see Persis; an impossible desire without impulse to pohieve it. T was a typical, sharp, wet winter night in Paris, the chill going with a peculiar directness straight to the marrow of the bones and freezing the Dody from within outward. Forbes had buffeted blizzards and the still, grim, icy airs of Dakota when the mercury seemed to crowd into the bulb of the thermometer to keep warm. But he wondered if he had ever been so cold in his life as he was now, when the thermometer had not reached even the zero of the French centigrade. Paris was not Paris. The sidewalks were not peopled with tables, and the restaurants were deserted within. There were few people abroad, for the audiences were _at this-hour in theaters and the homekeepers were at home. Nobody loitered in the streets, but a few mis- erables, and they were wretchedly cold. Forbes was so desperately lonely. that he resolved to. call upon Persis, even if he had to talk to her husband. He walked to the Meurice, but dared not turn in; he went on by; later he was back again. Three times his courage—or his cowardice—failed him. The last time he stopped sbort as if he heard a sudden “Halt!” Willie Enslee was just stepping into a car with two other men, violently American and manifestly bent on | finding in Paris what Paris ccnaneomaies for American - visitors. Willie paused and cast his eyes along the street idly while he waited for the other two to precede him. Forbes stepped behind a shelter till Willie vanished. Forbes, the brave, the upright, found himself chuck- ling over Willie’s blinduess. Then he cursed himseif for a reptile. He turned away from the hotel and start- ed back to his apartment, groaning to himself “The woman doesn’t live that can make a sneak of me.” When he had gone a few hundred paces he whirled about and hurried back to the hotel; asked for Mon- sieur et Madame: Enslee; sent up his card; wished he had it back; received a summons to come up; cursed the slowness of the Parisian ascenseur; wished it would fall and kill him; moved toward Persis’ door as to his ex- ecution; and was ushered in by. Nichette, who was ‘Cloaked and bonneted for an evening out. She left him a moment, then came tack and rattied off a string of French, from which he gleaned that he was voulez- vous’d to seat himself and attend a little moment: Then Nichette left him and hastened to the corner of the street, where a little WHERE See niee, shheree 5a Ps. uniform. -Forbes paced the lavishly furnished coventben room of the suite and resolved to escape before it was too late. The thought of the co'd loneliness “of the streets, of the town, of the world, held him back. He was unutterably forlorn. He sank inso a chair and clenched his hands together. HEN he heard Persis’ voice. It came through the glistening portieres masking the doors to the room adjoining, a’ kind of living room. Music and welcome and all-of Persis’ beauty were in the little hespitable words’ * © “Come in here, Harvey, weet veer I can’t budge, and I'm all by myself.""!"-" P SYNOPSIS ; L IEUT. FORBES, U. 8. A., back from the Phil- ippiness, 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 adopts 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 Wail street. Willie Ensiee decides to go to his place in the country. Persis, Forbes | and all the others go with him, a thoroughly un- | conventional house party. After a runaway acci- dent Forbes proposes, is accepted, discloses that he has only his Heutenant’s pay and is rejected. Persis consents to marry Ensice and Forbes ac- cepts appointment as military attache to Sena tor Tait who is made Ambassador to France. Persis and Forbes meet at a ball given by Am | bassador Tait in PGéris. Senator Tait strives to separate Persis and Forbes, but dies of- heart dis- ease before it can be accomplished. — play of white lace and arms and bosom and a good deal of stocking. She wore a boudoir cap fetchingly awry. Forbes put her hand up to his lips and laughed as he kissed the smudge of ink. It was the first laugh he had known for days. <t was like the first chuckle of rain fter a drouth. It brought moisture to his eyes. He clung to her hand. It was now a rescuing hand put out to lift him from the dry weil of gloom. He dropped to his knee, and without any coquetry she put her arms around *’m and huddled him close. His hot cheek knew the ineffable comfort of her silken shoul- der; his brow felt her lips upon it. He was at home. All the strength that had sustained him, all hi$ ideas of duty and honor, were blown away like the down of a dandelion puff by the mere breath of her hips. And now the tears his eyes had refused broke from them . in flood. He wept because he was happy and because he had found contentment and refuge. He wept as great herees and fierce wgrriors used to weep before tears went out of fashion for men and began to fall into dis- use even among women. And now they were indeed acquainted with each other. She had seen him weep. When a woman has gained that advantage over a man, what dignity has he left? She can make a face at him, and all his pride becomes laughing stock. They talked small talk and love talk; they laughed and cooed. They were congenial to the infinitesimal degree. The world outside was dark and cheerless. They shut it away with great curtains. They forgot that there Was any curse upon their rapture. They shut out all their obligations as things clammy and odious. ' And now in the presence of the bridegroom selected by nature and love what protection had she? She had no harem walls to inclose her, no guardians to keep the suitor away or to threaten exposure. She had lost the fawn-like girlishness that would take flight; there was no nun-spirit within her now to cry “Help me‘” HAT remorse there was was the man’s. He blamed himself for overpowering where he was overpowered and decoyed. With the tra- ditional mistake of the man he accused him- _gelf of a ruthless conquest when he was really the prey of ancient guile and wile. And this again is not to blame Persis. She was herself the mere puppet of world-old impulses along the wires of sense. She was a victim, too. But her remorse was hardly remorse at all, rather amazement or dismay. It was Forbes that condemned himself for dishonor. Persis was dumfounded at the completeness of her success by surrender and at its rashness. She was afraid that Forbes might despise her; but she feit also the barbaric premeval perfection of the triumph of nature. She had achieved her destiny. She would fight the consequences; she would deny the fact, but she felt that she could never regret it. Immediately having made conquest of Forbes, she began to own him. She began to resent his other ob- ligations, his other codes; her jealousy began to func- tion. She implored him to postpone his return to America; to follow the Ambassador’s body on a later steamer; not to go, at least,.on the steamer Mildred took—any- to escape the breaking of the rose chains where- with she withed him. But his almost filial love for his . even his passion. Nothing could move him from that last foothold on self-respect. The triumph éf love wound up fn a war, a downright | with all the brutality of a married couple. And with the tinkle of a clock them bienched. It was as of the cat. “Willie is tone past n me urging. He fied so precipitately ‘that he hardly paused for a farewell kiss. They had time for no future plans. He sneaked along the cor- ridors of the hotel. He feared to summon the elevator Wondering where’ she “was dna how. he should find ‘lest Willie step out of it.» He went down by the stair- her, he pushed through the curtains timidly, as timidly as Joseph entering Potiphar’s wife’s boudoir. He found Persis cuddled up on a chaise longue of satin. She was almost Ie3t in a jumble of parcels and ‘toys and knickknacks. She had been writing addresses, and the fingers she gave into his were smudged with ink. She sat like a suitana, with her feet curled under her. She wore a light confection of a house gown of some astonishingly. attra-‘ive hue, with plentiful. dis- ways. From the entresol he studied the lobby of the hotel to make sure of not meeting Enslee. A detective might have suspected him for a thief had not his man- ner been the immemorial stealth of clandestine lovers. Love had belittled him thus in one evening. Forbes took the steamer he had planned to take, though he had such battles with his recalcitrant heart that he did not feel safe till the tender at Cherbourg ne oe ee ee ee ee ee eS ee of return. REAPING THE WHIRLWIND. Equally disconsolate was young Stowe Webb, who had lost his post with his.chief; and who was in a panic of uncertainty. But Mildred, on her-first day of calm, reverted to habit and began to take thought of the welfare of others. She asked Stowe of his plans, and, learning of his hopelessness, immediately begged him to act as her. own secretary—“at an increase of salary because of the extra trouble she would give him.” The arrival in New York brought a new mountain of tasks for Forbes. Mildred had adopted him as an.elder brother; she gave him power of attorney in the endless interviews with the lawyers, executors, directors and the officials in the Department of State. Forbes soon learned what the Ambassador's hints as to his will had meant. A recent codicil bequeathed to him almost as much as Tait’s dead son was to have had. T seemed to Forbes as if Satan had laid the wealth of Armus and of Ind at his feet and kneit there grinning over the hoard. There was a further sar- donic bitterness in the legacy,-since he knew that it had been given him so that he might feel able tc make Mildred his wife without sacrifice of his pride. ‘ Unable to fulfill the condition of the legacy, he tried to refuse it. The executors asked him why; his eva sions led them to suspect his sanity. Mildred would ask him why. What could he tel! her?. He consulted Ten Eyck, but could tell him only that he could not’ give Mildred the love that was needed te sanctify the marriage. Ten Eyck probably understood more than he admitted. He lifted one eyebrow and Jowered the othef, as if his mind were divided betweem two comments. He said: . “I see why you can’t go to nice old Mildred and say, ‘Dear girl, I wouldn't marry you for a hundred thouw- sand dollars.’ That would be an awful black eye to hand a charming lady. But I can’t say that your mo tives of love appeal to me, Forbesy. You sound like the beroine of an old-fashioned novel refusing to. marry a rich man because she loves old Dr. A. Nother. “But whatever you do, Forbesy, don’t refuse the © money. In times like these, when bank presidents are robbing their children’s savings banks for car fare, don't © spurn any real money, or you'll cause several persons to die of apoplexy, and strong men will lead you to the paddedest cell in the house of foolishness.” Forbes took the money, promising himself that he would scatter it in beautiful deeds of charity. .- But he didn’t. Forbes had a car now. He had not intended to get one, but after dedging salesmen for weéks one of them lay in ambush for him and carried him off for a ride— a demonstration in disguise. He was so captivated by the 1915 model and the enlarged powers it gave him that he capitulated and bought. He learned to be his own chauffeur; but this was so inconvenient at times that he was soon hiring a charioteer. And, of course, he never skimmed the earth or. sped through beauties of Fandscape that he did not wish for Persis at his side. He had a better car than Enslee’s now. He could buy Persig the costly, cozy little runabout she wanted; he could hire her father’s chauffeur and Nichette. He could* buy her great quantities of clothes, and he had leisure for her entertainment. But he had not her, nor the right to buy things for her. | Away from her he found that time was softening his remorse without hardening his heart against her. His wealth was mockery, his leisure was mockery. His mind was hardly more than a music box eternally purl- ing une little tune: ‘“Persis—Persis—Persis!” And then Persis came back, as if his longing had pulsed across the sea. She had no difficulty in per- suading Willie to return to New York. He felt positively footsofe from travel. She had not been long ashore béfore she learned the new status of Forbes. It was Mrs. Neff who told her. taunting her with having jumped into the marital noose with Willie too soon. She had not been long ashore before she met Forbes. And once more it was Willie who brought her into his presence. Forbes was now a member of several of the more important clubs. Willie met him at one of them, and © asked him to join a.crowd he was inviting up to the . country place. d Forbes’ heart began to knock at his breast at thd thought of being with Persis again in the Enslee Eden: A remnant of honesty led him to decline the invitation on the ground of another engagement, but Willie in- sisted. “You had pa a rotten time there last spring,” he : said. “I went to make up. There won't be any lilacs yet, but there'll be servants—and something to eat.” RBES flung off his scruples, and promised to “motor up.” The phrase sounded odd in his ears, for he remembered the poverty of his first visit, when he went as a passenger in Mrs. Neff’s car. When he spoke of his car Enslee said: “By the way, if you’re motoring up you might bring Mrs. Neff and Alice. The old lady's oldecar has got the sciatica or something.” So Forbes brought Mrs. Neff along. and Alice. Mrs. Neff had much to say of his wealth. And now that she knew Persis to be out of the running, she had evi- dently entered. Alice for the Forbes stakes. Forbes could feel the idea in the air, and he was exceedingly embarrassed. Persis received him now in her quality of owner and housewife, with a flock of servants everywhere. He found her in the living room, surrounded by guests, chattering and lounging and sprawling. He had not seen her since he left her that night in Paris. She: gave him her hand and a few commonplace words, but their eyes embraced and their lips were tremulous with unspoken messages and ungiven kisses. As the dinner hour approached, and the others went up to dress, Forbes lingered, and Persis sat with him a moment in the embrasure of that drawing room win- dow where they had once held rendezvous. The mystery was gone from it, and the poetry. But they seized each other in one swift embrace of arms and lips. Even this . SUNPAT MAGAZINE ST A QU 1 PRT CUBA TOR OR PEM EI: 'S..

aces eg ee pal ‘S 5 “ wa Na iat ax tien ee ia aaa _— ‘ Fact OH as mace! ; “She sank into a chair and mumbled, ‘They know everything.’” was interrupted by Crofts who entered to ask a ques- tion as to the wines for the dinner. When the butler was gone she repeated her warning to Forbes, but -+he took her in his arms agafn. Her mind told her that she must not go on risking, go on register- ing faint impressions in the minds of servants and of guests; but her heart would not defer entirely to her intelligence. Forbes was taciturn at the dinner. Mrs. Neff could not provoke him to vivacity. She noted that his gaze returned constantly to Persis, and that when her look came down the board to him it softened strangely. After dinner little cliques were formed about the bil- liard and the pool tables, the card tables, and a few danced the everlasting tango with some new variation. Forbes and Persis danced together, and many eyes noted the perfect rapport of their mood, the solemn joy they took in the welded union. “How well they dance!” was the spoken comment; but the thought was “How congenial they seem!” ND so the intrigue ef Capt. Forbes and Mrs. A Enslee prospered and established itself as the habit of their lives;~ their souls adapted them- selves to it..Precautions against discovery be- came second nature, like precautions against disease and accident. They were bound together in a kind of secret wedlock, which ‘Tibullus called the furtivi foedera jectt. And all the while gossip was busy with them; evi- dence accumulated against them grain by grain, as sand- dunes are formed into walls. Everybody spoke of the intrigue to everybody but those most concerned. No- body warned Persis or rebuked Persis or tattled to Wil- lie.. A few fearless persons talked to Persis’ father, but he could not believe, or, believitg, could not touch so repulsive a topic in his few meetings with his daughter. How could a father accuse his little girl of outrages against a commandment he had been afraid even to mention to her. Several women broached the theme with Willie’s mother, who had been suspicious on her own account. She answered the gossips with fervent denials and with vigorous defense of Persis; but she vowed to herself that she would descend upon her daughter-in-law with vengeance. Yet, before Persis’ eyes she could only dissemble; then she would resolve to warn her son, but ghe feared the terrific possibilities of lighting such a fuse. Willie was like herself in so many ways, and half of her blood was from the Spanish aristocracy ee an international marriage. : Eventually peopTe began to say that semebody, seit tell Willie, and some day somebody might. Some day he might stumble upon some tryst, or open a letter, or everhear a gossip’s careless word. Ten Eyck heard plenteous scandal, and he was heart- broken. Even his cynicism could not stomach the in- trigue. _But even his affection could not bring him to protest. VERYBODY felt that Persis and Forbes, in their mad gallof across another man’s boudary line, were riding for a fall. But everybody was fas- cinated by the breathlessness of the gallopade, the escapes from disaster. Nobody cut Persis, omitted her from a list of invitations, or treated her otherwise than as a valued and charming ornament to the world, Nobody would desert her so iong as she kept the saddle, held her head up and remained attractive. Meanwhile the poison of their Judas life was wearing upon their own souls. Forbes was growing restive to be at work again upon his career. To be the messenger an boy of a woman's summons grew increasingly irksome. He dreaded an official cognizance of his new career as homewrecker, and his innate decency was more rebel- lious against the outrages he: committed incessantly against his self-respect, his creeds, his codes, his posi- basking luxury of Persis. Her physician confirmed her dread, and ¢ongratulated her—and her husband! She dared not‘ask his aid in foiling her destiny. She daref not ask anybody’s aid. Her life of pleasure-hunting had made,a coward of her. The thought came to Forbes that there was but one way to make their life liveable—to make it frank and public. Persis must enter the divorce court and as soon as possible after marry him. That sort of solution for such intrigues had been much practiced of late. It had become so fashionable that protest was losing its vigor. He opened the subject to Persis. She shrank from it with revulsion. She could not tel] him her secret even then; but it was a mighty argument to herself against such a step. She gave other reasons ‘cogent enough in her opinion. Forbes said-no more. Somehow: he was féminded of the time when he was dancing with Persis, and the rose light was suddenly changed to green. There was a char- nel odor in the air. ‘The following afternoon Persis came home from a tango tea, where she had expected to meet Forbes. Through some misunderstanding he had failed to ap- pear. This left her plans in a decided tangle. He was probably trying to find her by telephone. He would doubtless call up the house, Things were in a mess there, too. An ancient romance in the servants’ quar- ters had resulted in a wedding between the second man and one of t#® chambermaids. Nichette had been chosen as a bridemaid and had begged off for the afternoon, as had ajl of the others that could be spared. Nichette had. long ago been taken into their confi- dence as a necessary go-between. Persis trembled lest a message from Forbes should fall into inexperienced hands. To complete matters Willie ‘had resolved to go to the opera ‘that night and to be on time dinner was to be served an hour‘earltier than usual. ARROWED by the multiplex difficulties sur- rounding an intrigue, Persis was kept waiting at the door a long time in the cold. She was about to rend the tardy footman to pieces when the door was opened by Crofts; the superanneated but- ler, an heirloom from Enslee’s father. Crofts had long ago reached the age when he: was too venerable to wear the Enslee livery. He was an ideal gentleman, respected and loved by all the family and its friends. But as an officer of the household he was deaf,- decrepit, and almost useless.e Yet he was too much of an institution to discharge, and he simply would not retire. Today he-was blissfully happy. The young upstart servants had flocked to the wedding, and he was called to the helm. When Persis saw him at the door her heart. melted, but it also sank. “Did anybody call?” she asked, and asked several times in crescendo. “Only Mrs. Ensiee, ma’am,” he whispered, in his dry, crackling, deaf man’s voice. Persis cast her eyes up in despair and hastened to pay her devoirs to her mother-in-law. The elder Mrs. Enslee was looking radiantly beautiful in her white hair and her black eyes and the assisted red of her Spanish lips, with her cascade of furs falling about her. She smiled at Persis sadly. Her daughter-in-law was beautiful undeniably. What a pity that she was not also good! But kept back her reproaches, and said in the most de fe of aecents, with her tendency to an exquisite lig — “Don‘t worr} .oay dear.

He wore his overcoat and top hat into the room, and his key chain dangled. He was in one of his most fretful moods.

Nevertheless, stress must be laid on the fact that the rapidity of the invasion will considerably contribute to victory, owing to the ab- sence of methodical preparations for mobilization, to the trexperience of the personnel and because of the numer- ical weakness of the regular army of the United States. “In order to’occupy permanently a considerable part of the United States and to protect our lines of operations so as to enable us to fight successfully against all forces which that country, in the course of time, can oppose to us, considerable forces would be required. Such a campaign Would be greatly hampered by the fact that @ second passage of the transport fleet would be nec- essary in order to carry to America the needed troops. The long distance would be a serious obstacle to success. However, it seems debatable whether it would, after all, be to our advantage to occupy a great area of the country, for a prolenged period. “The Americans would not be inclined to seek peace because one or two states were dominated by our army of invasion. But, -on the other hand, the same end might be attained through the occupation of certain of the seaports. The enormous material losses thus inflicted upon the whole country, in which the fabric of the na- tional welfare was affected, would accomplish the de- sired purpose. “Accordingly, the work for our fleet would be to make a series of landings and in this way place at the mercy of our guns several of the weaithy and important coastal cities.

The hobby has made him master of ‘some of thé most surpris- ing and entertaining animal pictures to be found anywhere, The photographs on tfiis page are examples. One day about eight years ago, Frees picked up a doll’s' cap and put it on the. head of a kitten. The ensemble was so grotesque that he’ tyjed to photograph it. He found the ‘kitten averse to being snap- shotted. He tried, to pursuade her; but it was a difficult job. That aroused his combative spirit.and by the time he had won his way, he décided not to lose the fruits of his labor.. ; Accerdingly he fitted -up-.a studio 6 by 15 feet in size, with an ordinary camera. He began training cats and puppies to pose in all sorts of individual scenes and tableaux. It was by no. means as easy as it sounds. The animals had to be trained to take required attitudes and hold them often for many seconds, which is trying on the nerves of any self-respecting cat to say nothing of how exasperating it is to a healthy pup. He had to coach them into making the most of their limited facial expressions so as to “register” either joy, sorrow, anger or remorse. | Being a genuine artist, Mr. Frees has not been contented with mediocre pic- tures. Each photograph must tell its own story. Costuming, of course, is a large part of it.and the wardrobes of the Frees Feline Amajeur Stock Company ‘is marvelously complete. There are gowns and coats and scarfs, hats, caps, and their ribbons. without number. Also there are complete miniature hous furnishings and stage settings.

Or if. it is the famiiy wash day, there is a wash tub of just the rignt size for the kitten, with its washboard and clothes wringer in due proportions, and a clotbesline overhead at just the right height. Very frequently Mr. Frees makes series of pictures which tell a connected story. One such is made up of the pictures on this page. It begins with little Bettie whois at her table writing a letter to Santa Claus. From the pensive wrinkle be- tween her eyes it is easy to read that she doesn't want Santa to forget anything. In another picture is -somebod¥ w/» looks suspiciously like Bettie’s papa. ii: is carrying over one shoulder somethui 7 that bears every resemblance to a Christ- mas tree.. Little Bettie, sleeping so feace- fully in the next picture, with her little stocking hung from the mantelpiece, is fairly on the way to realizing her fon: est hopes. ° Sure enough, old Santa is keeping faith with her. One has the impression that ‘beneath his whiskers and furs is a eat who might almost be related to liitla “Bettie. Finally there is all the glory of Christmas morning, with its toy-dripp'ng tree and everybody as happy as he ought to be. Each of these pictures required at least a second’s time exposure of the camera. Some. of the attitudes, it can be secn, are not’ easy ;for a four-footed beast to assume and hold for the relatively long time of posing, focusing and snapping. That the pictures turn out so well is 1 striking comment upon the protograph<«r's methods and patience. Mr. Frees almost invariably uses vee ne kitténs. for his pictures.

As a matter of fact, fresh bread is just as digestible as stale, if it be chewed as much, but its very softness is a temp- tation to chew it too little; henes it is swallowed Without the ‘admixture of enough saliva to digest its starch. Stale bread, on the other hand, is difficult to swallow unless thoroughly “chewed. The difference between fresh and stale bread is merely a matter of water. In bread as it comes from the oven the crust is dry an! crisp and the crumb is moist and soft; because all the water is in the crumb. As hours or days pass the crust absorbs water from the crumb and be- comes soft, while the crumb becomes (dry. A loaf can be made fresh again by slight- ly moistening it and placing it for a few minutes in a hot oven. The heat drives the water from the crust. back into the crumb.

Apart entirely from the diseases of the skin and other tissues- that so often disfigure a face, there are certain expressions that, to the experienced physician, tell their own story. Dr. W: P: Cunningham describes some of these. “The contracted brow of headache is a familiar phenomenon,” he writes. “The pursed lips of abdominal distress are usually construed aright. The fixed vis- age and staring eye of precordial agony are unmistakable. The intermittent facial contortions of- neuralgic paroxysms are readily interpreted. The screwing up of the face on one side will indicate an aching molar. Associated with laerymation and a drooping eyelid it is highly suggestive of iritis “The half-open mouth, forward thrust of the chin, and dribbling’ saliva are characteristie of acute pharyngitis. The broad nose and gaping tips of adenoids call for no extended comment. The sad- dle nose of lues is immediately recognized.

It is in the ‘all that the devil plant gets in its deadly work. The flowers give place to seed pods. wtih great, belly-like capsules and long, stiff claws like those of a beast of prey. These are hidden under the brown rnd yellow leaves, and when a grazing ani- mal—a sheep, a camel; a wild ass or an antelope, for example. —browses among the foliage, the claws hook themselves into its nostrils. The animal tries to rub them off, but the more it rubs the deeper it forces the claw-4like hooks in’? its skin. its throat becomes so inflamed that it can neither eat nor drink, and consequently it dies of starvation and pain. The animal’s body lies in the open and decays, and into the de- composing fiesh the hundreds of black seeds cortained in the capsules of the clawed pod are discharged. For it seems that earth is not rich enough for them and only in decayed flesh can they find enough nourishment. Drivers of caravans curse the devil plant, for it may cost them many of their beasts when these are turned loose to graze at night. But most of the semi-wild beasts that graze in the country have learned to avoid it, even as American herds have léarned to avoid the deadly loco weed. Not be Treated as Defective RRESTED development is often mistaken for mental deficiency, especially in school children. The former is purely physical and can usually be cured. It is there- fore important that its signs be known, especially by school teachers. Dr. J. Lawson Dick, the Edinburgh specialist in children’s diseases, describes these clearly in an article in the Lancet. “& typical child,” he writes, “will show a certain coarse of feature, with loose pendulous lips and mouth somewhat open. The complexion is muddy, the gen- eral circulation is sluggish, and there is great susceptibility to cold. Such chil- dren “in the winter are subject to frequent attacks of nasal and bronchial catarrh. The intellect is\clouded and dull. Speech is defective, and in many theré is actual halt- ing or stammering.. The skin is dry and the hair is coarse and without luster. In many cases the bones are soft an there is well-marked evidence of rickets. Frequently tue incisors show defect in the enamel and a jagged edge of dentine is exposed, a condition which I think significant of rickets in early infancy. “Now, these children are decidedly backward, and are fre- quently sent by the teacher for medical examipation as suitable for a special school. But they belong to a class dif- ferent from what we understand when we speak of the mentally deficient child. If the gerieral health conditions of these chil- dren are improved, and mental conditions will also improve, and ‘ | the child rapidly returns to the normal standard. In other words, a ff “theré is no true mental deficiency, but merely delayed development. “Study of-the symptoms will show that they are all of the nature of defective nutrition, and readily fall into line with the signs and: symptoms which we now know to be associated with defective ac- Dr. Dick says rickets is due to bad air and confined space, de- ficiency in diet having. nothing to do with it. “Wide streets and ‘ ample window space will do much to dispel rickets even in the face of defective. feeding. Much of the improvement in the general health after the operation on tonsils and adenoids is due to the freer respiration and the better oxygenation of the blood, giving a fresh start to the whole organism. “Tonsils and aderfoids, rickets, and the lymphatic state are ex- ceedingly common and are frequently associated together, and in the majority of cases, though not necessarily in all, are dependent Injuries to the Dura of the Lido Cause Obscure [lls rather die than receive a blow sufficiently severe to render me unconscious for a considerable period of time,” said Dr. John B. Murphy during an operation on the head of a young man who had been suffering from epileptic fits, which came on three years after he had been struck on the head ty a baseball and knocked unconscious for about half an hour. “A blow which merely fractures the skull without producing unconsciousness, such as that from a sharp instrument,” 6 ‘T HAVE often said that I had .continued Dr. Murphy, “is not nearly so Diagrammatic section of the coverings of the brain to show- the dura that is injured by a blow. serious a condition, from the point of view of future possibilities, as that fol- lowing the biow of a blunt instrument which renders the patient uaconscious.” Dr. Murphy went on to cite several cases, one of a man who had been thrown from a sleigh against a telegraph pole and remained unconscious for three weeks. He had no further symptoms for about three years, when he began having convulsions. Another was that of a young man who had fallen from a win- dow to a stone pavement when a baby. His “fits” did not begin until 22 years later, and he had been a precocious boy at school and a successful business man. Dr. Murphy believes that such blows cause an injury to that eoating of the brain which is called the dura. The ve brain itself is uninjured. Then some- thing arises—worry or extra hard work or something of that sort—which brings on irritation where the dura was in- jured. The precise cause is uncertain. Some of these cases can be cured by an operation in which the skull is opened and the dura at the place of injury ‘re- moved, but only about one case in 20 gets well and stays well. That is why Dr. Murphy would rather be killed out- right than suffer such an injury. For the victim is almost certainly destined to become an epileptic. et Injecting Bone to Make It Heal N order to hasten the repair of broken bones Dr. H. J. Kauffer of New York injects between the fractured ends a paste made by grinding fresh ‘bone to a powder, mixing it with petrolatum and thoroughly sterilizing it. In the New York Medical Journal he describes: its effects upon the jawbone of a‘dog. He drilled holes on both sides of. the jaw; on the right side he sutured the tissues cver, the hole. On the left side he filled-the hole with the bone paste and. sutured the tissues as on the right side. He also extracted two teeth on ‘this side. Both sides of the jaw healed im five days. After 28 days the dog was killed and its jaw bone ex- amined. On the right side there was no sign that new bone had begun to grow in the hole, but on the left, where the powdered hone had been used, the hole had filled with-new bohe so that it was impossible to see where the hole had been made. The sockets from which the teeth had been drawn had also partially filled up. This, accordiag to Dr. Kauffer, proves that the bone cells so introduced act as foci for the growth of nev bone. on hyperthyroidism. Their secondary efforts are widespread and entail much waste of energy and money in school work. They are responsible for a large proportion of the dull and backward The hopeful point is that these children are not true mentally deficient children, but are ’ papable of great and immediate improve- ment when given suitable conditions.” Science Now Says How, Not Why CIENCE has practically given un $4 answering whys and contents itself with describing hows,’ says the Scientific American. “If you ask a scientific man why a sicie falls to the ground he will tell you that he doesn't know. Not long aga he wouid have replied that it fell to the ground because the earth and stone attract one another. This is very much the same as saying that an unsupported stone falls to the ground because, as has been as- certained by frequent experiments, an unsupported stone falls to the ground. “If you ask a scientific man how a stone:falls to the ground, his intelligent countenance will light up at once and he will talk for a long time. He will talk about the acceleration of the stone, men- tion Newton, and say something which sounds complicated about inverse square of the distance and directly as the masses. In short, Newton’s law of gravitation tells how bodies approach one another, but does not profess to say why they approach one another. There are some ingenious gentlemen who think that is all science can dod, and perhaps they are right.” Sun Repels Comets’ Tails NEW theory to. plain the tails of comets is ad inced by the French physicist, M. Houllevigue, in the Revue S&S entifique. It is natural to suppose, he /ays, that the in- candescent nucleus of k comet fs throw- ing out electrons into the extremely rari- fied atmosphere that surrounds it. The observations of George Ellery. Hale, an American astronomer, prove that the sun behaves like a negatively electrified body. Therefore the repels electrons, which are negatively’ electrified bodies. These par- ticles so repelled would be driven to that side of the comet-which is furthest fron the sun, and by contact with the molc- cules of the gaseous and rarified atmos- phere would produce just the luminous. appearance that we call a comet’s tail. - Every comet's tail always extends away from the sun.
