LOUIS, SAYS BUSINESS IS IMPROVING Postmaster-General Denies Rumor That Bryan Is to Quit and Stone Will Succeed. Postmaster-General burleson passed through St. Louis today on his way from Austin, Tex., to Washington, D. C. At Union Station he told reporters that from conversation with fellow passen- gers on his travels he was led to helieve business conditions are improving in the West, Northwest and in ths New England States. As to the South, he said conditions there continue bad and will remain so until the cotton crop can be marketed. The Fostmaster-General, who is a Texan, was asked about the recent crit- icism by Gov. Colquitt of Texas of President Wilson’s Mexican policy. “T was in Texas only two days,” he said, “but in that time I heard about “0) people discuss the Governor's -crit- icism. Everyone sicged with the Presi- dent.”’ Burleson took occasion to deny a ru- mor sent out from Washington that Sec- retary of State William J. Bryan is to resign as a Cabinet member and that Senator William J. Stone of Missouri will be appointed to succeed him. “President Wilson and Mr. Bryan are the very best of friends, having absolute confidence in each other, and both are well satisfied. with the present arrange- ment. 1 can safely predict Mr. Bryan will stay where he is. Reports to the contrary emanate frum unfriendly sources.”’ WILL PROVIDES HOME FOR LIFE FOR LAWYER'S PET DOG St. Louis Attorney Also Leaves $2000 to Housekeeper for Faith- ful Services. the will of Ozro B.

Vasleopolcus Was serving supper to Fred Mason of 2102 Ojlive streel at 6 p. m., when three men entered and took seats at the luncn counter and ordered coffee. The pruoprietor started for the kitchen and was followed by one of the trio. one of three his restaurant at Body Falls Across Stove. As he neared the coffee urn, Vasleo- polous turned and the man at his heels placed» a revolver against breast. The proprietor sprang back several feet, snatched his own revolver from a shelf urd tired twice at the robber. ‘The latter fell across a range with a bullet through his heart and another in his left hand. The second robver then engaged the restaurant inan in a duel. Each fired three shots, the robber continually cull- ing upon his dead companion to help him. ‘he third robber fled, after strik- ing Mason on the nead with his revolver His companion also wags forced to flee. Two patrolmen, attracted by the shuts, ran to the restaurant from Twelfth and Olive streets and found Vasleopolous calmly looking at the dead robber. The water cooler in front of which Vasleopolous stood while exchanging shots with the second robber was shat- tered by bullets. Four cups and sau- and a catsup bottle also were smashed. Dead Robber Identified. The dead robber was identified at the morgue as Charles Tozer, 30 years old, a shoeworker, of 203A St. Charles street. He served time in the penitentiary for robbery and last Saturday was arrested with several other men on _ suspicion of being implicated in a series of hold- ups, Following the identification at the morgue the police arrested Pearl Smith. 23 years old, of 1929 Olive street, a friend of Tozer. His wife, who lives in East St. Louis, sued him for divorce last week. She left him, she told the police becvuse she did not like the class of men he invited to his St. Charles street home. The police last night in- tended to raid Tozer’s home, but found it empty. He had his furniture moved away two days ago, neighbors said. Sixteen men were arrested in a drax- net set for all suspicious characters. The name of one prisoner corresponded with the initials ““D. C.”’ in a hat whic’ was dropped in the restaurant.

PARIS, Jan. 2.—-The Waf Office’s {ficial announcement given out to- hy follows: ‘During the night of Dec. 21, Jar. 1, the enemy delivered at @emerous voints along the front @ series of attacks, which were Pepulsed with ease. “The region to the north of Wyse was, during the day of Jan. 1, the scene of a very spirited artil- ery engagement which took place on the dunes of Nieuport and Zonnebeke. “At St. Georges the enemy did mot continue his counter-attacks and all our gains have been re- tained. “In the regions of Arras, of Al- bert and of Roye, there have been artillery duels. The enemy blew up two of our caissons between Beaumetz and Achicourt. In re- e Venge we demolished the enemy’s frenches at Parvillers and at La Boijsselle and we stopped. the operations of the mine thrower get up in front of Fricourt. “Our artillery also obtained happy results in the region of the Aisne, where it silenced the artil- lery of the enemy and dispersed several concentrations of German troops. We have installed our- selves on the plateau of Nauv- ron, in certain excavations caused by the explosion of mines. The Germang were not able to either aa@vance or drive us out; all their counter attacks were driven back. “In the region of Rheims there. was a fairly heavy bombardment by the enemy. “In the region of Perthen we occupied and retained a forest ‘two kilometers (mile and a quar- ter) northeast of Mesnil-les-Hur- lus; the enemy did not deliver a counter attack. “In the argonne, in the forest ef La Grurie, the local retirement reported yesterday has not had -any effect. We have reoccupied a part of the ground lost and we are holding our position strong- Yy. “On the heights of the Meuse there has been An artillery engage- ment, but without great severity. “In the Woevre we have retained the positions gained by us Dec. 30, without experiencing a counter at- tack from the enemy, and in the Forest of La Pretre we have made a slight advance. “In the Vosges we have driven back a German attack on our positions at Bremenil, three kilometers northeast of Badonviller, inflicting heavy losses on the Germans, The enemy has sustained also heavy losses at Steinbach (Alsace), where our in- fantry yesterday occupied three new lines of houses.” For several days house-to-house fight- pe has been in progress in Steinbach, yheré the French occupy half of the dwn. lermans Take Entire Burned Forest After Stubborn Battie.

PETROGRAD, Jan. 2.—An official communication given out by the general ataff last night says: ‘In East Prussia and in the region of Miawa (Northern Russian Poland) we have defeated attempts by the Germans to deliver a partial offen- sive. “On the Vistula, opposite Wyszo- grod (37 miles northwest of Warsaw) our armed steamers cannonaded the infantry of the enemy with success. ‘Between the Vistula and the Low- er Pilica the Germans have begun a series of attacks supported by the fire of their heavy artillery. Our troops, in an action on the left bank of the Bzura River near Vitkoritze, repulsed two night attacks. On the Rawka River we repulsed an attack directed against Doletzk. “On Dec. 31 the enemy manifested activity which was particularly in- tense in the region of the town of Rawa, where the fighting still con- tinues. “South of the Pilica the action has spread out and the positions cut off the routes from the Vlostchoro to Kielce. “In Galicia we made energetic at- tacks on the enémy in the region of Gorlice (southwest of Jaslo’ near Mschanka and Ropitza, where, de- spite the extremely fierce resistance which the enemy offered, we de- stroyed, after a hard fight, their fortifications established on the heights. In the village of Mschanka we captured about 3000 prisoners, in- cluding 68 officers, four cannon and six mitrailleuses. The fighting in this region still continues. Furious coun- ter attacks, which the enemy made, supported by armored automobiles, were repulsed by our artillery fire and bayonet charges. “In Bukowina we occupied, after a battle, Storozhinetz and Radautz, (just south of 'Czernovitz). We also took some prisoners.” The inactivity of the Germans in the neighborhood of Warsaw for some days is explained, according to reports ~each- ing here, by the claim that they have employed this time in fortifying the ter- ritory already taken up to the Bzura River and along the left bank of the Lower and Middle Vistula rivers. According to reliable information reaching here, Lodz, Lowicz, Skier- niewice and Piotrkow are now as strongly fortified as Kalisz and Czen- stochowa. The Germans have attempt- ed to make this territory as difficult to invade as is German soll. Residents of West Poland who are reaching Petrograd, state that hundreds of factories have been’ blown up by the Germans and that all available building material, especially bricks and metals. have been used in the construction of the fortifications. Recent German at- tacks between Skierniewice and Warsaw have their base at Lowicz and Piotrkow, which are said to be equipped with rail- roads, telegraphs and all the necessary accessories of war.

The British Ambassador, Sir Francis Bertie, as dean of the diplomatic corps, presented the congratulations of his colleagues and himself. In his address Sir Francis remarked that the diplomats present at the reception comprised ‘‘rep- resentatives of the nations fighting at the side of Francé and 6f other nations, upon which neutrality imposes speci.l duties in the grave crisis which Europe is traversing.” William Graves Sharp was present at the reception, with a staff, which was unusually large for the American Am- bassador. The American embassy is now the most active of any in Paris, having the affairs of Germany, Austria and Turkey as well as its own to look after. With Sharp were the three former Ministers designated by tue State De- partment to serve with the American embassy during the war—John W, Gar- rett, #. Percival Dodge and John G, Uoolidge.

According to a statement in the Nord- deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, a sum- mary of which was given out today by the Officiat Press Bureau in Berlin, Germany no longer considers binding the exequaturs of consuls.in any ter- ritory which has been occupied by Ger- many during the war. The statement of the Official Press Bureau is as fol- lows: “The Norddeutsche Allgémeine Zei- tung, explaining the status of consuls in Belgium, concerning’ whose exequaturs it intimates there has been considerable misunderstanding, says that Germany has notified not only America, but all neutrals, as well as those countries allied with Germany, that she no longer considers binding, in any hostile terri- tory occupied by Germany, exequaturs issued prior to the war. “At the same time it is made plain that Germany is glad to meet wishes regarding the admission of consuls any- where, except where military operations are being carried out. Germany re- quests, however, that only persons of Germanophile or neutrai. leaning be ap- pointed, but she has made nro request for the recall of any particular con- suls. “It cannot be expected,” the news- paper adds, ‘‘that Germany accept hos- tile Belgian subjects as consuls for other countries in occupied territory. This point is said to be especially im- portant as 300 Belgians heretofore have held posts as consuls for allied or neu- tral states.”’ DEAR PAUL: Get the diamond ongags: ment ring on credit at Loftis Bros. & Co., 2d floor, 308 N. 6th st.; One of Three Robbers Killed ina Restaurant at home eating supper at tif time of the robbery.

The Souvenir Shop, a jewelry store owned by Herman Schubach at 1821 Market street, was robbed during the night of jewelry valued at $5000 and $37 in cash. When Schubach at 7 o’clock this morning, he found some one had forced open a steel door at the rear of the place and got into the store by way of the basement. What is known in police parlance as “a conre along’’ had been used to force the combination of the safe in the rear of the store, and the showcases in which gold-filled articles were kept were ransacked. Solid gold articles and dia- monds were kept in the safe. ad According to Schubach, 120 watches worth $1200, 26 diamond rings worth $500, $37 in cash and other smaller pieces of jewelry, were taken. The robbery was evidently the work of one or more expert. safe crackers. A hammer and thin wire tipped with rubber, which protruded from the door of the safe, were found. The control bars of the locks had been cauesd to drop, freeing the locks. There was not a scratch on the safe. ™ The robbers, it was found, fled the Same way they entered, using a step- ladder in the basement to reach a coal chute through which to crawl out the steel door. Schubach said his loss is partly covered by $2000 burglary insurance. s Store Manager Gets Drop on Robber and Disarms Him, A man walked into the Amusement Co.'s candy store, 15 North Broadway, a few minutes before mid- night last night, while the manager, George Angelich, was counting money in & small booth.

Although drinking was indulged in as usual every New Year's at all the large downtown cafes until long after 1 o’clock, the legal closing hour, no policeman has indicated that he saw this being done. Capt. O’Brien today said he made a personal inspection of Central Dis- trict up to 4 a m. yesterday. He noted that the bars in all the hotels and cafes were Gicsed and said he saw New Year's evs’ celebrators dancing, but did not see any of them take a drink. Policemen were stationed at every downtown hotel and cafe where the passing of the old vear was cele- brated, but they must have been so busy keeping order that they missed There was no attempt at conceal- ing the fact that the stroke of 1 o'clock did not turn the cafes or ho- tels into Saharas. Drinking was even more general between midnight and dawn than in the earlier hours of the evening. Excise Commissioner Anderson had made the usual announcement that the law must be enforced, but said he, as is the usual proceedure, would rely on the reports made to him by the police as to whether the lid was tilted on New Year's eve. As in other years, the police “have nothing to report.’’ Wine was ‘con- sumed in large quantities on premises covered by saloon licenses, but none of the wine drinkers said: “charge it to the Mayor,” and police interference was not called for.

YORK, Jan. 2—Parts of the mutilated body of a woman were found last night in two bags in a pond on the West Meadows in the vicinity of Stillwell and Cropsey avenues, Bath Beach, Brooklyn.

Disfigured for Time Being. lised Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Made Complexion Clearer. Face Entirely Healed. New Cambria, Mo.—" The first thing I began to notice some eruptions on my face. They were small pimples forming. They would itch so badly that I could hardly ; keep from picking at them. When I did it seemed as if they kept spreading. I was disfigured for the time being; my face was totally covered with the pimples. They were so bad I hated to have a person see my face. It was in this condition a year or over. “I read in the paper of how good Cuticura Soap and Ointment were and I resolved to try them. After I used them several times they seemed to heal the places and make my complexion clearer. I spread the Ointment on my face and let it remain for about five minutes and then washed it off with very hot water and Cuticura Soap. My face was entirely healed."" (Signed) Miss ‘Flossie Hepworth, June 30, 1914. Cuticura Soap and Ointment do so much for poor complexions, red, rough hands, and dry, thin and hair, and cost so little, that it is almost criminal not to use them.

For God's sake, don’t get pale that way; it only makes your skin whiter!’’ He was no longer looking at Barker's ashy face but at his neck, against which the razor blade still pressed. *‘Don't move your other hand!’ he commanded again. “It will be the sig- nal! Oh! what a beautiful skin!" he muttered in a sort of ecstacy. “It is like white velvet, soft and smooth.

It wa a supreme chance, and Barker leaped upward, catching the arm of th; mad student before he could recover from his surprise. A great gush of blood flooded Barker’s face, blinding his eyes; for in his effort to escape he had unwittingly forced the sharp blade across the throat of Files, cutting it from ear to ear.

As she ate the cakes which the pennies bought at a little bakery around the corner, she wondered atill further, “If I can make pennies dancing on the street to the hurdy-gurdy, perhaps I could get a chance to-make a fortune if I could dance gn the stage to the music of an orchestra.” She had never been inside a thea- ter, but she knew where there was cne, and when she had walked there she waited, wondering just what she would say when she got to the man who hired the dancers. When, after asking many questions, she found out where his office was and when, after a long wait, they let her in to see him, she was so frightened that she scarcely knew what to: say, and he had to help her with questions before he knew just what she wanted. The man turned to a piano. The air he played was one to which. she had danced a hundred times in the street, and, half closing her eyes to shut out the strange surroundings, she danced just as she had danced so many times ‘before with all her gracé and childish- ness, The man played on for a long time, watching her over his shoulder. At O™ day Fanchon was hungrier J last, tired, Fanchon stopped. “Will you | hire me?’ she asked. “Tt hired you when you began danc- ing,” he said, “and you have already earned the dress in which you will, make your first appearance, which shall be the first of the coming week.” “And I am to have a new Gress?’ she asked. OU are to go to the costumers from here,”’ he said, “and she will fit you to the sort of a dress suitable for you,” When Fanchon saw the dress that she was to wear it seemed to her that noth- ing she had ever seen was so beautiful. There was gay embroidery on it and glittering spanglies and lace that she thought must have cost a fortune, And there were stockings to match, and e to her the knowledge t she had no shoes to dance In.

I know very well what it is that is troubling you~you have no shoes—but I am going to help you. You are to keep quite still and not say anything, whatever you see.”” T HE fairy rappea three times, and immediately appeared three of the strangest looking little men Fanchon had ever seen. They were not as high as her knee, but they had the jolliest faces she could remember. They bowed very. politely to the fairy before she said to them: “I want you to make me a pair of magic dancing shoes, and they are to fit this little girl, who.is my friend.”’ Fanchon watched the goblins as they made ready. One took a tape measure from his pocket. Another unrolled a piece of the softest leather and a third made ready with needle and stout thread. How fast they worked. It was only a few minutes before the first shoe was finished and handed to the fairy, who told Fanchon to try it on. It fitted perfectly, and in a minute more the other one was done and then the fairy said: ‘‘Will you not dance for the goblins?” “Gladly,’’ said Fanchon, and as she began dancing her feet felt lighten than they ever had before, and as she fin- ished the goblins clapped their hands _ before they bowed again to the fairy and disappeared. How great a success she made ts told by the fact that she is dancing still and that she is famous all over the world, but only Fanchon knows that the fairy is always with her and that the magic shoes will not let her fail.

SAUNDERS, USTY -old Richard Wagner pro- ® vided the material for the mu- sical welcoming of the New Year to St. Louis, and. a mightily majestic greeting it was—the throat of Olive Fremstad and the various instrumental sections of the Symphony Orchestra be- ing the mediums through which the Wagnerian utterance was sounded. There was a fine rivalry. between the two, yet it was a rivalry in which each joined in harmonic accord with the other, and the final award of honors was about even, whith means that the biggest matinee audience assembled in many a season for the hearing of a ‘Symphony concert enjoyed a musical feast of splendid quality, full of au- spicious promise for this year of our Lord 1915, thus dawning with such sin- cere melodic inspiration. Max Zach's men were heard in the third act, the dance of the apprentices and the procession of the guilds from “The Master-Singers of Nuremberg,” in Siegfried’s Rhine-journey and the finale of “The Dusk of the Gods,’’ in the pre- lude and procession of the Knights of the Holy Grajl from ‘“Parsifal,’’ in the smithy songs from “Siegfried’”’ and in the prelude from ‘Tristan and Isolde.”’ Mme. Fremstad’s commanding organ of great song received its two opportu- hities in the scene of Brunhilde’s self- immolation from “The Dusk of the Gods,’’ and in Isolde’s deeply” moving ‘“love-death” cry from ‘Tristan and Isolde,’’ in each of which, also, the or- chestra gave her a masterly support. Thus did it come to pass, with great singer and great orchestra in alliance, that the first day of the new year a day never to be forgotten. The orchestra attained its highest roint of achievement in the two ‘“‘Parsi- fal’’ numbers, the intensely spiritual .prelude and the magnificently reverential pageant of the Grail knights, these in- spired scores being interpreted with craftsmanship so admirable and in a spirit of such complete response to their appeal of religious exaltation as to place the stamp of genuine greatness upon the task’s performance. Second to this acquittal in orchestral excellence was the ‘‘Tristan and Isolde” prelude, and, for novelty’s sake, the smithy songs from ‘“‘Siegfried,’’ now pre- sented by the Zach instrumentalists for the first time, claimed and held a mem- orable place on the program. Mme. Fremstad was in fine mood for the singing of her two great numbers, and her voice was never heard to better sdvantage. There were moments when it seemed in peril of being overwhelmed by the immense volume of orchestral environment upon which Wagner in- sists, stubbornly daring his singers to be vanquished by force of numbers, but it was not overwhelmed, despite the loyal- ty of the orchestra to Wagnerian tradi- tion. The tempestuous sacrificial chant of Brunhilde was splendidly given. with the completest meeting of its ruthless de- mands upon the vocal organs, but the best of Fremstad came with the ‘“‘Tris- tan and Isolde’ liebestod, in which, I am sometimes tempted to believe, this singer now stands without a rival on the cperatic and concert stage. The Fremstad emotional utterance of this poignant song is well-nigh perfect, and it is so thrilled with the tragedy of the moment that it holds an audience spellbound from its first to its I!ast rhrasing. The triumph o1 the soloist was undeniable, and it has been rare in- deed that the Odeon has echoed to more sincere or better deserved acclaim than was here commanded. + The entire program is to be repeated at tonight’s concert.

Barrie, which recently was published -in full in the Sunday Post-Dispatch on the day preceding its stage presentation in London, now is is- sved in gray-bound booklet form for the world’s thoughtful consideration. It is one of the most curious agd deeply significant products of the great war that now has lighted the political feuds of Europe into a consuming flame cf ruthless racial fierceness. Its one all-dominant note is that of British Khatred for the Kaiser, whose own hatred cf Brita'm assumes the aspect of mania Its indictment of him is appalling in the venom of its spirit. The validity of the indictment may not properly be de- bated in a study of the work as dra- matic literature. It was perhaps inevitable that such a creation as ‘‘Der Tag’’ under the stress of intense excitement should assume an aspect of prejudice disastrous to its ap- peal in art. “Der Tag’ is not a play. it is a political pamphlet. Yet it is profoundly tragic. Andecits tragedy is not restricted to its shuddering portrait of William II of Germany as the arch- criminal responsible for the world’s big- gest, bloodiest and most unpardonable war. Coincident with this is another and a poignantly pitiful tragedy. It is found in the fact that, at a moment when the ultimate crushing of the Kaiser seems assured, a soul so essen- tially gentle as that of James Matthew Barrie should have been capable of sug- sesting suicide to a beaten and humili- ated enemy. And because of thig truth the most dreadful instant in ‘“‘Der Tag’ ‘s reached when Culture bids William of Hohenzo'lern farewell. “She lifts a pis- tol from the table and puts it in his hand,’’ reads the “stage business’ of Parrie’s playlet. “It is all she can do for her old friend. She goes away with shining eyes. The penny dip burns low. The great Emperor is lost in its shadows.’’—(Scribners.) “MARTHA AND CUPID.” é¢ \V) eae AND CUPID” is the third of Miss Julie M. Lipp- mann’s Martha books, the first of which, ‘“‘Martha-by-the Day,’ has been placed -on the stage with May Rob- son in the title role. Martha, a big, whole-souled Irish charwoman, has some of the cheery and lovable qualities of*>Mrs. Wiggs, but she is, physically and intellectually, a larger personality. Perhaps the title might more appro- priately be ‘‘Martha’s Married Life."’ But that might suggest a certain inter- minable syndicated screed, with which this work has little or no _ kinship. Martha’s insight and levelheadedness appear in her remarks to her husband concerning their only son, Sammy, on the prospect of his having to give up singing in the ‘‘surplus choir.’”’ ‘It done 'm a lota good.

Now comes William Atherton Dupuy in a fine book entitled “Uncle Sam’s Modern Miracles,” and tells us of such deeds. We get a glimpse of the big things he has done, like the Panama Canal, and also of the. big things he is doing every day for the health and welfare of his people. The book is worth reading, because it makes the reader proud of his country. Jt makes for real patriotism in that it shows what great things can be done in times of peace. In fact, it is a dem- enstration of William James centention that there are moral substitutes for war. Uncle Sam has found these sub- stitutes and thousands of men have been benefited, (Stokes.)

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.—If any native- born New Yorkers can go back 30 years, and if you can remember the ball club that bore the colors of the Columbia Grammar School and was sometimes known as the ‘‘Lightfoots,’’ you will get pretty close to knowing why Jacob Rup- came to be the president of pert Jr. Jake Ruppert—by the way, he hates that title of *‘Colonel’’—was an. infield- er on the Lightfoots, and he was also captain of another team that he and other 16-year-old boys organized during the summer. ; “T always wanted to run a ball club,’ saidsthe Colonel, ‘‘and I suppose, he added laughingly, “I'll get all [ have been looking for these W years.”’ There is no doubt but that Col.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.—Gunboat Smith is said to be a changed fighter. There was a time when the Gunner was as ec- centric in action as a half-tamed bron- CO, “The ~Jnner has begun to show class,”’ i said a sporting man the other day. When he fought McCarty last week and bad the Montana man half helpless after three or four’ knock- downs, he .~rned to the referee and said: ‘Don't jake me hit that poor fel- low again, top it.” A coupie of years ago Smit would have been excited enough tf tear in and try to knock McCarty vut into the crowd. ‘Remember when he boxed Wuest? He agreed ust before he went into the ring that either man shoulu be disquali- fied if he hit in the break. He hitain a break and knocked him down. A n- ute later, just after being warned, Qe hit Wuest in the wreakaway again afid finished him. The only reason the Gun- ner wasn’t disqualified that night was that the referee didn’t enforce the rules, ‘Smith used to hit them all on the breaks and bold and hit and when he had a man going fast he hit harder than before. Finally he lost the big- gest fight of his career in England on a foul, hitting Carpentier when the Krenchman was on his knees, hat taught Smith a lesson. He’s mor de- liberate now and he’s going to be a more effective fighter on account of it. Bob Fitz on Knockouts. Bob Fitzsimmons, the greatest fighter in all the history of the ring, had his own theory of a knockout. “It doesn’t hurt anyboay to be knocked out,”’ Fitz used to say. ‘I like to be! gentle and considerate and knock ‘em out in a hurry. I put it over as soon as I can, instead of beating them down gradually. The gentlest way is to land a clean one-punch knockout. It doesn’t even leave a headache.’’ Fitzsimmons once met a man who took a number of hard knockdowns and still struggled to his feet, standing in a uearly helpless condition and refusing to give up. This was Jack Dempsey, who was losing the world’s middleweight championship. litzsimmons appealed to the referee to stop it, and when that official declined, bgcause it was a cham- said: “Jack, you've done all a game man can do. I don’t want to hit you again. Give it up.” “You'll have to knock me out,” mut- tered Dempsey. And Fitz did. One-Round Hogan Reappears. One-Round Hogan is back in New York. Hogan says that for a year he has been driving a truck and handling plumbers’ sup- plies in San Francisco and that he’s strong and anxious to fight again. He promises to show something this time. Hogan caime here with a ‘‘one-round”’ rep- utation. He started well, showing plenty of boxing skill and as stiff a straight. right- hand vunch as anyone eé@ver used, He out- classed K. O. Brown. who was at the height Wolgast knocked him out. His subsequent career was a8 varied as any record, He fought some good chts, but be- fore long struck what_looked like a perma- nent lesing streak. His.heart Gidn’t seem to be in the right piace. The trouble with Hogan was that he took too much of a liking to the dance halis and other places where wine and all the rest of it were of more importance than training. He became lazv and neglected his work, go- ing into the ring in poor condition. The greatest fighter living couldn’t do that and keep on winning fights. And as oxan wasn’t by any means the greatest fighter he soon came to the end of his atring. ence Frisco and the plumber’s wagon again. Per- haps if he has been taking care of himaeif in San Francisco the hard work has made him a fiehter again. This time, however. he of his reputation. ‘ MAGNATIC MAUNDERINGS. * IS the voice of the magnate, I hear him declare: “I’ve got a new pitcher, They say he’s a bear.

McCARDELL. , I SHOULD SAY ABouT - : TWO! Mrs. Jarr Receives Weird Mes- sages From One Who Has the Bar. T being the joyous holiday season and good will being in the air, Mr. Jarr and Mr. Rangle attracted no particular attention as they sang ‘‘See- ing Nellie Home” at the streetside inns they visited during the first hiatus they had participated in for a year or more. The hiatus, be it understood, is the time that elapses between leaving work and arriving home. When this period of elapsed time runs into hours and is marked by a cheerful vertigo, it may well be termed a hiatus. Perhaps the vocal efforts of Mr. Jarr and Mr. Rangle were not especially conspicuous, because near them were two stout gentlemen with their arms twined around a very thin gentleman, and this trio was warbling “Good Night Ladies!”’ _ Farther down the bar there were two |; eS middle-aged men chanting, so far 7 ; ‘ : : ' they could remember it, the old senti- D BI KF] f, S S S d d | _— U B H Steneal song of ‘‘Juniata.”’ on t ame ooey or tarting O Uu Cf) y c as Ink a ig urry.
