IN ONE CELL FOUR MEN He Will Permit Companionship | and Try to Make Convicts Feel They Still Have Chance. WASHINGTON, March 15.—Frederick Zerbst, Deputy Warden at Leavenworth Federal penitentiary, has been chosen for Warden of the penitentiary at At- lunta, succeeding Warden Moyer. The appointment will be effective April I. Attorney-General Gregory said today there was no political significance in the removal of Moyer or the appointment of Zerbst. “I don’t know of any harder thing than to find a good Warden,’’ said the Attorney-General. ‘‘You don’t want a sickly sentimentalist, nor do you want a brute. You need a man who under- stands human nature, who is the sort | who will get to know his prisoners; _ Something of their history, and who will at the same time be a capable exec: utive, and one who will enforce disci- pline.” | Holds Out Hepe for Prisoners, Gregory looks upon the conduct of | ederal penitentiarfeés as one of the im- portant matters under his charze. “What we want to do,” he said, “is to’ keep alive in the heart of every pris- oner that he has a chance ‘even if he be under life sentence; to get out into the world again on parole, or as a cite zcn. We want to keep before each man _ the fact that he has something to hope for. “The department already has under- Hing the most terrible thing in pris- | Ps its penrelinens. We expect to and later the other prisotie in whi€i four men will be placed. They will have plenty of room, a table, lights, newspapers and books. These cells will . be alloted to men who have shown by, a nom eens. pod conduct that they deserve . treatment.

Zerbst later passed through all the minor positions at the prison, finally becoming day cap- tain. .Five years ago, when the Iederal parole law was enacted, he became pa- role agent. Last year, when Thomas W. Morgan was appointed Warden here, Zerbst was named his assistant. Zerbst is 4 years of age.

NEARLY 73 YEARS OLD Death Das Due to Chrenic Bron- ¢hitis After an Illness of About a Month. Capt’ Henry King, who was until three weeks ago editor of the Globe- Democrat, died at 2 o'clock -this aft- ernoon at the home of his son-in-law and daughter, Dr. and Mrs. N. J. Hawley, 3864 Cleveland avenue. Chronic bronchitis was the cause of death, which followed an illness of more than a month. He was 72 years and 10 months old. Capt. King was a native of Ohio, but was reared in Illinois. He learned the printer’s trade after leaving ~ehool. and, like many printers of his day. he turned from the mechanical to the pr.>% fessional side of newspaper work, be- coming a reporter shortly before the Civil War began. He was married about the same time, but he entered the Union Army, and served through the war, rising to the rank of Captain. After the war, Capt. King located in Kansas, which was then a. hotbed of political strife. He was associated with the late Maj. Joseph Kennedy Hudson, soldier-editor like himself, in the found- ing of the Topeka. Capital.. He is said te have declined an appointment as United States Senator, this action be- ing in keeping with his lifelong belief that a newspaper editor should not sac- rifice his influence with the public, or his personal independence, by becom- ing an office holder. Wrote Editorials for Rival. He was for a time in charge of a paper in Quincy, Il., and he later re- lated that, when the editor of a riva! daily was ill, he wrote, for several days, the editorials for the rival paper, some of .which were bitter attacks on his own paper. He was engaged in edi- torial work in Topeka when, in 1883, he poceDpted. 2. lobe-Democrat Mftorial sth WAS orial writer under- Joseph B. McCullagh until Mc- Cullagh’s* sudden death, Dec. 30, 1896. In the following month he was appointed editor. He was in charge of the editorial and news departments of the paper, but in recent years he devoted himself largely to formulation of the paper's editorial policy. Considered for U. 8, Senator. When the Republican party came into control of the Legislature in 1905, and the Kerens bolt prevented the election of T. K. Niedringhaus as United States Senator, Capt. King’s name was con- sidered for election. While it is not cer- tain that Capt. King vetoed this sug- gestion, he took “no active steps to en- courage it, and he commended the com- promise selection of Maj. William War- ne’, Capt. King, for many years a widower, made his home, in recent year, with his son-in-law and daughter, Dr. and Mrs. Hawley. \ His illness caused him, about the middie of February, to drop his office work, and Feb. 26 his resignation as editor was announced. MAN FAINTS WHEN $17,100 BID ON FARM IS ACCEPTED Belleville Buyer ‘cCcmits He Can’t Pay and Owner of 100-Acre Tract Takes It Off His Hands. Bidders were plentiful at the Belle- ville Courthouse this morning waen the 100-acre farm owned by Phiilip’ Stock, four miles north of Belleville, was put up at auction by Constable Ben Lautz. The bidding opened at $100 per acre and for the first few minutes was live- ly, but as the price increased the race for the title narrowed down to Philliv Hinderthier, a farmer of that vicinity, and a stranger. Constable Lautz was , about to accept the stranger’s offer of $170, but before his hammer could crash on the word “Gone!”’ Hinderthier bid $171, whereupon the stranger departed, Then the successful bidder was found prostrate between two buggies at the side of the square in a faint from which he was revived.only after 10 minutes’ of treatment. Hinderthier, when he recovered his faculties, explained that the sudden re- alization of the debt of $17,100 whfth he had contracted in his excitement, with his knowledge that he was in no finan- cial position to pay such a sum, had caused him to lose consciousness. Stock later bought the land in by bidding $172 and thereby released Hinderthier. ROOT WON'T RUN FOR PRESIDENT Senator Declares Statement That He Will Be Candidate Is Nonsense. ALBANY, N. Y., March 16.—Under no circumstances will former United. States Senator Elihu Roog be a candidate for President in 1916 He made this state- ment here today. “All talk of my be- ing a candidate is absolute nonsense, ' he @eclared. “Such a thing is im- | possible,”” Root’s visit to Albany was made, he said, for the purpose of acquainting him- self with his duties as a delegates to the constitutional convention which will begin April 6 While here he conferred with Republican leaders of the Lefia: lature (MISS MARIE BUSCH TO BE THE BRIDE Ut DRUMMOND JON Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Busch and Local Tennis Champion to Wed in April. “NO CINCH TO WIN HER” Jones; Who ‘‘Made Good” as Engine Factory Employe, Tells of Courtship. Drummond Jones, local tennis cham- pion, after working five months to “make good” in the Busch family’s en- giné factories at Second and Utah streets, conducted himself so satisfac- torily that his engagement to Miss Marie Busch, eldest daughter of August A. Busch, the brewer, was formally an- nounced by Mrs. Busch at the family home on Grant Farm, in St. Louis Coun- ty, last night. The wedding will be April 7 at the Busch home. Jones was busy at the Busch-Sulzer Bros.-Diesel Engine Co. plant this morn- ing when a Post-Dispatch reporter asked him just what he had been doing in the factory. “I’ve been doing the dirty work,’’ Jones responded, rather faceti- ously. “Mr. Busch put me down here last Octeber. I started in at the bot- tom to jearn the business from the ground up.’ Employe in Euathe Factory. “Been working in *overalis in the shops?’’ the reporter asked. “Oh, no,” the young man _ “*replied, laughingly. “I’ve been in the account- ing department, figuring up costs and operation expenses.’’ Formal announcement of the engage- ment of Miss Busch and Jones had been expected for almost a year, as he haa been courting her assidiously ever since her debut at Sunset Inn in 1912. They had been seen together at almost all functions Miss Busch attended, but neither Miss Busch nor any member of th: Busch family would acknowledge an en;tigement existed. Even Jones and his fiancee are not agreed upon the length of their engage- ment. They tried to determine that is- sue last night, at the family~dimner, at ténded by 14 members of the Busch fam- ily. Miss Busch said she would tell her, friends they had been enba “~~ s week or so,’’ and Jones said he had told some of his intimate friends he had been ea- gaged ‘‘a year or so.” Finally,» Jones said, it was agreed they had better nct say anything at all about the length of their engagement. Jones told the reporter he was intro- duced to Miss Busch four or five years ago when a party, with which he was driving to the Grand View farm, stopped at the Grant Farm. He said he had courted her ever since. “It was no cinch to win her,”® Jones added, in explaining that Miss Bysch had beerf favored with the attentions of a number of young men, Jones appar- ently was not successful the first time he proposed, for when asked about it he said, ‘‘Persons rarely are accepted on the first proposal.’”’ Fond of Horseback Riding. Miss Busch is 22 years old, and Jones is 27. She is one of the five children of Mr and Mrs. Busch. Her brother, Adolinus Busch III, is older, and Clara, August Jr. and Alice are younger. She attended Hosmer Hall, and studied un- der private tutors here and in Europe. She has traveled much, and spent many summers with her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs, Adolphus Busch, at their villa in Langenschwalbach. Germany. In 1913 she was a special maid of honor to Adaline Capen, the Veiled Prophet* Queen. She is fond of tennis and horse- back riding. Jones resides at 4929 McPherson ave- nue, with his stepmother, Mrs, Clarence A. Jones. His father was killed several years ago by Herman Kretschmar, an employe, who had been discharged. For six years Jones has been tennis cham- pion in doubles and singles in the Cen- tral States Championship tournaments, but last year he lost the champfonship ir. singles, and retained the title in dou- bles in both tourneys. THREATENS “POLITICAL FIGHT” ON JUDGE WHO FINED HIM Police Judge Granville Hogan made public today a letter which he receiye Saturday from Ceql A. Denison of 5248A Kensington avenue, manager of the Johnston Harvester Co., 2612 North Broadway. The letter complains of tz $10 fine which was imposed om Denison Friday, on a speeding charge, and the writer threatens to retaliate by a ‘“‘po- litical fight’’ on Hogan and Mayor Kiel. Hogan was wrathful over the contents of the letter, but would not say what action he intended to take. He didnot seem to be certain whether contempt of court, as respects a police court, can be committed outside the courtroom. In the letter Denison wrote that he considered the fine unjust, and: that he Was not running his car 27 miles an hour, as charged. He said he was a careful driver, but added that ‘at the time of his arrest, last Thursday, he was “a little anxious” to get to his of: fice. He ended with: “Unless teling effect. I await your reply.” Hogan is the Mayor's son-in-law. Neither of them is a candidate for any offide at present. ; * _ Busch Héiress Who Will Be an April Bride; Her Fiance 4ST LOUIS FIRMS MAKE HIGH BIDS FOR BRIDGE BONDS Smith-Moore and Co.

Mrs. Florence Campbell, widow of James Campbell, millionaire broker and public service magnate, gave her depo- sition behind closed doors this afternoon in the suit of Campbell’s nephews and nieces to break his will. The hearing was in the office of Henry 8S. Caulfield, the referee, in the Third National Bank Building. A number of depositions previously have been taken in St. Louis and New York and at all reporters were admitted. Counsel for Mrs. Campbell objected to the admission of reporters to the hear- ing while Mrs. Campbell testified, and Referee Caulfield ruled the hearing would he conducted privately. He said counsel might afterward decide to make a statement concerning the details of Mrs. Campbell’s testimony. L. Frank Ottofy, attorney for the plaintiffs, in New York last week, had promised “there would be a sensation’ when Mrs. the stand. This was Mrs. Campbell's first appear- &nce as a witness in the will contest. She was accompanied to the hearing by her son-in-law, Elzey Burkham, and by a man presumed to be the Campbell: butler. .

LEGISLATIVE APPROPRIATIONS — EXCEED REVENUE $1,300,000 Representativ;: So States in Urging » Transfer of Good Rocds Funds for General Revenue Purposes, JEFFERSON CITY, March 15.—Repre- sentative Tuggle, chairman of the Ap- propriations Committee, said in debate today that the Legislature already has uppropriated $1,200,000 more than the es. timated revenues for this biennial pe- riod. He made the statement during an ergument on a bill to transfer the cor. poration license fees from the good road fund to the general revenue fund. Tug- gle favored the transfer of funds. Country members Were unanimous in their opposition to the bill. “If we are going to loot the good roads fund every time some little emergency arises we might as well abolish the good roads fund,” said Representative Barbee. ‘‘If we should pass this bill it would set a precedent that future legislators would follow and every time the general rev- enue fund runs lIcw they wili dig int: the road fund.”’ The bill was defeated for engroasment.

In Dabney Rowlett’s coat pocket the police found a note which read: “Well, I can’t stand this much longer; why do you act so cold. Don’t make me do something you would be sorry for and I do not want to do. But would do rather than to stand this very’ much It is up to you what I should do.

ISMAYED by the hor- D rors of a war which is. bringing ruin to peo- ples and nations, we turn, Oh Jesus, to Thy most loving heart as to our last hope. Oh God of Mercy, with tears we invoke Thee to end this fearful scourge; Oh King of Peace we humbly implore the peace for which we long. From Thy sacred heart Thou didst shed forth over the world divine charity, so that discord might end and love alone might reign among men. During’ Thy life on earth Thy heart beat with tender compassion for the sor- ' rows of men; in this hour, made terrible with journing hate, with bloodshed ani with slaughter, once more may Thy Divine heart be moved to pity.

NEWPORT NEWS, Va., March 15.— French as well as British warships are Gruising outside the Virginia Capes walit- fng to pounce upor the German com- merce destroyer Prince Hitel Friedrich ff she should attempt to make for the high seas again. There are said to be @our of them, two British and two ¥rench, and they have come to stay until the Eitel Friedrich reappears or internes for the war at this port. An officer of the English freighter Angio-Patagonian, which arrived here yesterday from Swansea to load horses for the allies, told of the watching cruis- ers, and from him it became known for the first time that the movements of the BHitel Friedrich were known to the allies’ war eraft for several days be- fore she sought haven in Hampton Roads “Wor’t Come Ont Alive.” According to the officer's story, the Anglo-Patagonian was warned last Sun- @ay by wireless from a British cruiser that the German ship was about and told to slow up. During the next thred Gays, he said, his ship made less than $90 knots. Then on Wednesday came this relieving message through the air @rom the British warship: ‘“"The Hitel Friedrich has passed into the Virginia capes and will never come out alive.” It is understood that the allied squad- ron made every effort to head off the German ship, but was unable to over- take the ship or reach the capes first. To Make His Own. Repairs. It developed today that Commander Thierichens plans to make his own re- pairs on the Litel, with his own ma- chinists, and plans to get the supplies from the local shipyard. So far he has not complied with the request of Col- ‘Jector Hamilton for a statement of the time he will require. None of the reg- wiar work had been begun today, and that strengthens the belief here that the German ship is to be interned, de- spite insistence of the commander that it is his intention to put to sea. . There came to light today another Gramatic incident of the Bitel Fried- ‘Wich’s dash to an American port. Of- ficers of the sunken ships, including ‘Capt. Kiehne of the Frye, knew that the German ship was in r of de- truction. They knew the Litel’s wire- had intercepted exchanges between British warships. One morning, after guch a message had been picked up, Capt.«Monssion of the sunken French liner Floride, went to Commander Whierichens and said: “Captain, if. we should encounter a British warship, what will you do about fhe women and children we have pboard”’ : Commander Thierichens is reported to have replied that he would hoist a sig- Mal that his ship had women and chil- A Clear Complexion Ruddy Cheeks—Sparkling Eyes +-Most Women Can Have ys Dr. Edwards, a Well-Known hio Physician.

Commander Thiarichens entertained last night at formal dinner on board the Hitel Friedrich, Rear Admiral Reat- ty, commandant of the Norfolk Navy Yord, and ‘his staff, following a call the German commander had made on the American Admiral. The fate of Charles Frank and Robert Rogge of the crew of the American sail- ing ship William F. Frye, destroyed by the Prinz Eitel, detained aboard the German vessel, today hinges upon in- structions from the Treasury Depart- ment regarding representations to be made to Capt. Thierichens. The deci- sion revolves around the question As “to the right of the Captain to take men from an American ship and hold them for the German naval service even if they are Germans and subject to such service. Some of the crew of the Frye had made sworn statements to Collector Hamilton that one of the men was be- ing detained against his wishes. Hundreds of persons obtained entrance to the shipyard yesterday and gazed at the Prinz Eitel as she lay at her dock silhoutted against the shining red hull of the United States battleship Pennsyl- vania, largest warship in the world, which will be ‘launched here Tuesday. “Heard the Battle” in Pacific. “You have no idea what it means to lie idle here, when we know they are fighting at home,” Capt. Thierichens said to an Associated Press representative. “Why, even when we were out ‘there chasing enemy ships. and dodging war vessels we ~*could not help feeling that all the things that were happening at home would be only printed history for us. “The nearest we ever came to real ac- tion was during the battle off the coast of Chile. I did not see that. But I heard it. “I was with our operator and heard Scharnhorst give the orders when the British ships were sighted. I heard the flag call, ‘Clear for ‘action.’ I listened to every command until the battle was ended and I knew that the Monmouth was sinking.”’ The news of the other engagement in the Atlantic, the Captain said, was not known to the Eitel’s men, until long aft- er the brave comrades had been defear- When the Captain heard for the first time details of Von Hindenbure’s cam- paign, the attack on the Dardanelles and Engiand’s blockade he made no com- ment, but when he was shown a fac- simile of the iron rings that German women were wearing as proof that ‘they gave gold for iron for the fatherland,” he seemed deeply moved. “Ah,” he exclaimed slowly, turning the tron band marked with its black cross, “that makes one proud. “The crew of the Eitel declare them- selves very grateful for the hospitality accorded them here. “You Americans have been kind to my ship since she has been here. 1 realize the difficult task before the Col- lector of the Port in enforcing neutral- ity.

EL. SOHAPER SAYS STORE PAID PROFIT Tells of Organization of Investment Concern. At the bankruptcy hearing of the Schaper Bros. Mercantile Co. before Referee Walter D. Coles, this morning, Edward L. Schaper, who was president of the company, gave testimony about the leasehold of the store which had been figured by him as an asset. He said that an offer to buy the company had been made to him in March, 1914, and that the buyer offered to pay for the stock on hand and $175,000 for the leasehold of the building and good will. When questioned about the rating statement of $436,000 given to R. G. Dun & Co., in July, 1913, when the inventory showed only $276,000 in merchandise, he said that he included the actual worth of the leasehold, which, he had .gotten by taking the increase in taxes with the former worth of the lease. Referee Coles asked him how he ar- rived at the figure and he explained that he had forgotten. When asked why he had rated the leasehold as merchandise, he said that he had something to sell. Refere@ Coles asked him if it was not casier to sell merchandise. He replied that it was easier to sell the leasehold than the merchandise. He said that the Schaper company had formed a new organization, called the Williams Investment Co., to which the profits of the Schaper company were turned over. He said the principal stock- holders were himself, - Albert Schaper and William Schaper. He said that all but $10,000 of the $125,- 000 original capital stock had been used in the business. He said that $100 a month was paid for the keeping of the books and that a separate set of books were kept for the Willidms company. When any money was turned over to the Williams company, it was properly entered, he said. Although no rent was paid from Feb- ruary until May of 1914, Schaper said that he and John D. Davis, president of the Lindell Real Estate Co., owners of the buliding, had an understanding thai no rent would be paid during the re- mainder of 1914, but that $5000 a month Was to be paid in 1916 and that $5000 in addition to the amount specified in the lease was to be paid during 1916 to 1918. Referee Coles asked him why the owner of the building was so willing to allow the tenant to default of the rent, when the leasehold was gvorth $175,000, Shaper offered no explanation. He said dapper cent was added to the cost of the merchandise before it was put on sale in the store. “ 1014 DIE IN PENNSYLVANIA MINES Death Toll ton’ 1914 Is Sma er Than Year Previous.

Mrs. Florence Campbell, widow of James Campbell, millionaire broker and public service magnate, gave her depo- sition behind closed doors this afternoon in the suit of Campbell’s nephews and nieces to break his will. The hearing was in the office of Henry 8S. Caulfield, the referee, in the Third National Bank Building. A number of depositions previously have been taken in St. Louis and New York and at all reporters were admitted. Counsel for Mrs. Campbell objected to the admission of reporters to the hear- ing while Mrs. Campbell testified, and Referee Caulfield ruled the hearing would he conducted privately. He said counsel might afterward decide to make a statement concerning the details of Mrs. Campbell’s testimony. L.

He made the statement during an ergument on a bill to transfer the cor. poration license fees from the good road fund to the general revenue fund. Tug- gle favored the transfer of funds. Country members Were unanimous in their opposition to the Dill. “If we are going to loot the good roads fund every time some little emergency arises we might as well abolish the good roads fund,”’ said Representative Barbee. ‘‘If we should pass this bill it would set a precedent that future legislators would follow and every time the general rev- enue fund runs lIcw they wili dig inti. the road fund.’’ The bill was defeated for engroasment.

Letter in Stepson’s Pocket, In Dabney Rowlett’s coat pocket the police found a note which read: “Well, I can’t stand this much longer; why do you act so cold. Don’t make me do something you would be sorry for and I do not want to do. But would do rather than to stand this very’ much It is up to you what I should do. So by your acts I will know what you think or care. You know how I feel, so I need not say any more about it. Only Ee no one knows how much I care,’ Young Rowlett said he supposed his stepmother wrote the note and slipped it in his pocket. Second Letter Signed “Anna.” There also was a letter on a table in he room where Mrs. Rowlett. was found. It was written to a woman in Los Angeles and signed ‘“‘Anna.’’ In this letter the writer spoke of her love for “Hi.” Mrs. Sarah H.

The capacity was slightly reduced by the rurway, which, as iff previous Winter Garden shows, runs 'Way over the cen- ter of the parquet. Winter Garden, did we say? Can it be anything but the balmiest sort of a summer garden which sends us these bare-kneed, bare-shouldered maidens, whose costumes are simpler than those worn by 3-year-old children at the sea- shore? What do these girls put their money into? Not into stockings, for- sooth, for they have no stockings. Haz it been such a hard winter for stage folk? Could our Provident Association help with, say, three dozen pairs of hose? ‘ Lest the audience should grow down-| hearted over this sad destitution in ap- parel, the appearances of: George Mon- roe and Harry Fisher come at no longs intervals. In his costume’ as Mrs. Burke, film producer, Monroe is uglier— oh, vurra much uglier—than ever before He will soon be ready for a beauty competition with John Bunny. But ‘‘be that as it may,’’ there ought to be a law to punish anyone who makes people laugh so much in one evening as Monroe and Fisher do. So'much laughter at one time is bound to Cause a reaction, and to make one grouchy and @rumpy’ next morning. Also, there are jokes in this pair’s repertoire that should be loppe4 out with the broad-ax of managerial censorship. It -might bea added that Monroe and Fisher lay rather too much stress On pronoun-mangling—but last night’s audience seemed to like this part of their work. Artie Mehlinger was the hard-working man of the show, and his efforts were to good effect in the “Omar Khayyam’”’ song and travesty, which formed Pper- haps the best acted part of the per- formance. Frances Demarest, who is of the Lilian Russell type, appeared as a tragedy queen in part of the travesty work. June Elvidge, whose beauty is of the sort that is as rare as a day in the said month, did the lighter “‘leads,’’ and led the riot of sZymnasium girls up and down the runway, from which they pelted the parquet with medicine: balls. Marilynn Miller showed great versa- tility in her work as premiere danseuse and lady baritone. Her “Mile. Genee’’ | was a delicious bit of parody. Rapid scene shifting and frequent Monroe-Fisher dialogues make possible the use of 13 scenes in three hours. The “Sloping Path,” a London music hall novelty, forms one of these scenes. The girls are grouped in.four tiers, reaching to the flies. The finest scenic effects are the “Persian Garden” setting, the realistic transatlantic aeroplane flight, and the final look over the Panama- Pacific Exposition and the Golden Gate. While the program ‘consists largely of travesties, they are so treated that ac- quaintance with the originals is not nec- essary. “The Yellow Ticket,’’ ‘Help | Wanted” and “Seven Keys to Baldpate’”’ are among the plays thus parodied.

COST OF BECOMING ENGAGED 10 WED | Diamonds Higher, Says Dele- gate to/Missouri Retail Jewel- ers’ Convention Here. ‘ The Europea.t War, which has _in- creased the cost of living, has also in- creased the cost of becoming engaged to marry. This was disclosed today 2% the annual convention of the Missouri Society of Retail Jewelers, at the Plant- ers Hotel, when W. F. Maxwell, a St. Joseph jeweler, discussed present and probable future effects of the war on the jewelry business. Prices of diamonds and pearls have increased considerably since the war started, due to a shut-down of the South African: diamond mines controlled by an English syndicate and the hazards of transporting pearls from. Ceylon and elsewhere. A diamond ring which sold two years azo for $250, Maxwell said, now brings at least $300, and is considered cheap at, that figure. The price will become hicher, he said, as the war progresses. Tariff 10 Per Cent Higher. Part of the increased price, Maxwell rvinted out, is due to the added 10 per cent tariff which Uncle Sam collects. But the English syndicate, which now supplies the world from the big surplus vf diamonds it keeps in stock, is charg- AT F AMOUS-BARR COMPANY COMPANY “The Day for Thrifty hrifty Shoppers” [)VIDEN D DAY comes at this store every Tuesday, when we give TWO of the valuable EAGLE STAMPS taataaih of the fe 2 customary one with cash purchases.

The increased prices apply to all sizes from a fourth-karat up. “Few suitors, he said, think of giving an engagement ring less than a half karat in weight. There is no chance, he said, of substitut- ing a ruby—which has not increased in value—for the diamond in engagement rings. Sentiment, he said, always will decree the symbol of innocence as tho insignia of a betrothal. Maxwell said that tne war would no doubt be an incentive for American jewelers to manufacture much in their line which has formerly been imported from Germany and other European countries.

Major refuses to speak out on the antt-: | primary bill passed by the State Senate and pen¢- ing in the House. He says cryptically that if it hadn’t been for the primary system he never could have been Attorney-General or Governor. His vague utterances are taken as an intima- tion that he wants the primary system in order that his ambition te be United States Senator may be realised and for this reason he will veto the anti-primary bill if the House passes it. What a reason! : United States senatorships are not won nowa- days by evasion and cowardice. They are won by sound conviction and courageous action. No man can be elected to high office in Missouri who in responsible office countenances an assault on the power of the people directly to control the Gov- ernment, Referring in his local organ to the defeat of the code revision bill in the House, Gov. Major says he will give “his best efforts to the attempt to secure its passage.” How will the Governor give his best efforts to this end? By personal influence? Wherein is this method more appropriate or effective than by exercising his constitutional prerogative and duty to address the Legislature and recommend desirable measures. The way for a Governor to promote good and defeat bad measures is to make these measures public issues. The issue on a good or bad meas- ure can always be taken to the people by a chief executive. He can appeal to the people. He can legitimately influence every legislator who con- sults him by insisting on his right of public ap- peal. There is not a measure now pending in either House of the General Assembly that Gov. Major cannot powerfully help to pass or defeat by mak- ing it a public issue. He can assure the defeat of the anti-primary bill by a message. Not one vital measure would now be in doubt if Gov. Major had acted upon his duty and responsibility as Governor and administration leader. It is not too late for him to speak out. = = wry eS A SEAT.FOR EVERY FARE. The Board of Public Service, framing rules for the jitney cars, requires them to provide a seat for every passenger—an excellent rule which the board will doubtless now enforce equally against the jitneys’ competitors, the United Railways Co. Or will the city play favorites? _—_—=- i, i A RUSSIA’S GREAT COIVILIAN, WITTE. No other Russian of civil life had so impressed the world as Sergius J. Witte. He was one of the creators of the Siberian railroad, established the gold standard in Russian finance, made the traffic in alcohol a state monopoly, negotiated the greater part of those huge loans in France that are an influential fact in modern European history, won at Portsmouth, N. H., the brilliant diplomatic victory that restored peace with Japan on terms of amazing moderation. To this remarkable record, which alone indi- cates the part he played in shaping public affairs in his country, may be added leadership in the /movement that caused the Czar to grant Russia a constitution. Td be, as he was, the first Prem- ‘fer under the representative government that re- placed irresponsible autocracy might be distinc- tion enough for one Russian of modern times. His superiority to narrow prejudices almost universal among countrymen of his generation was shown by his liberal attitude toward Jewish residents and efforts to end the discriminations to which they .are subjected. : ‘= = PROF.

Nothing is more familiar than the contention —_—_— 2 that if the Monroe doctrine is to be a vital doc- trine, an obligation is imposed on.us to tax our- selves for big armaments.

And if the allies win, what motive would cause them to seek in Latin-America additions to the white man’s burden under which they have been staggering along for so many years? Some additions to the burden they undoubtedly will make—uncounted German islands in the Pacific, measureless extents of German territory in Africa, lands on the Persian Gulf, the fairest portions of the Sultan’s domains But if this is done it will be because it .is desired to deprive Germany and her allies of sources of potential strength and not because the allies are in need of more possessions, outside of a few strategic That not the victorious, but the beaten side in ped of all or part of its colonial It has done} face of the planet.

Japan’s excuse—odious in theory but doubtless defensible in the light of the facts—is that Rus- sia’s eastward drift menaces both Japan and China; that it is vital to the safety of both that the stronger shall occupy and defend the region against which Russian pressure bears, and shall control its railways, its customs houses, its mines, its military forces: The Asian drama is the European decent re- peated upon another stage. It serves but to em- phasize the fact, which. Tolstoy lived and died preaching, that nobody can ever put an end to war except.the common peoples, and they only by récognizing their common humanity, by as- suming control of their governments and by abol- ishing that form of commercial imperialism which thrives upon war’s disasters. - we | MOTHER'S PENSION LAWS. ‘Twenty-three , states, not including Missouri, have state-wide mothers’ pension laws, all passed within four years.

Before the mothers’ pension law was enacted in Illinois, 280 children, out of 2000 whose fathers were dead and their mothers poor, were brought into the Juvenile Court for law-breaking. Since the law took effect, only 8 such children have been brought before the Court as delinquent. And the effect on- the: mothers, in cases where the pension allowance enables the little family %G remain intact, is equally happy. Without an allowance paid to her, a destitute mother, de- prived of her bread-winner, must separate herself from her children and try to find employment. It has been found that this condition, through the discouragement and unnecessary hardship it im- oses On young mothers, is a moral menace. A mother has every incentive to lead an upright life if she has her young children with her. = = © — SS NINE GERMANS ATTACK SIBERIA. Capt.

With a little difficulty the passengers scrambled out. The strangest thing met their eyes, Everything was upside down; in fact, they were walking on the ceiling. Six feet above his head Hodgson ‘saw the handle of a door, on which ‘ “was painted, upside down, the name “Jones & Co., Patent Attorneys.” “Tf you'll lend me your shoulders, I'll climb up and get into that room,” volunteered Hodgson to a stout man who stood beside him. The stout mon consenting, Hodgson clambered up and opened the door. He entered a business office. There was nothing remarkable about it, ex- cept that the desk, safe, table and chairs, together with a couple of typewriters and a number of papers, rested on the ceiling. Hodgson opened the window and looked out down Broadway. Then he realized the situation. By some wunac- countable mischance every building in Broadway was resting upside down, in- cluding the city hall and the trees around it. The street cars were upside down upon the tracks. Groups of way- farers were clustered together, appar- ently dazed; they stood and pointed _almiessly about them. “©, Mr. Hodgson, what has happened?” exclaimed a voice behind him.

The Platt Building was 4 stories high, and he was giad that they were descending and not He was giad, also, that the - building was so high, for it gave him a zood time in which to hold Miss Perkins by the arm and exchange light conver- sation with her, that gradually grew more serious. of the rapher, Cyrus Hodgson had been aware for some weeks that he loved his, stenog- but, being nearly 40, he had thought himself too old to think of mar- riage with her.

Admirable girl! thought Hodgson as he gazed on her. Even this catastrophe had failed to move her from her sense of the home duties. — And, gs he looked at her, he realized with mingled sorrow and joy that it was exceedingly unlikely that Miss Perkins would get home to Breoklyn for an in- finity of time. Certainly there was no way of reach- ing the street from where they stood undér the stairs and above 'the dome. While, if they assayed that long jour- ney up to the bottom of the Platt building, they would emerge into the upper air. Only a bird could solve the problem. “Cheer up, Miss Perkins,” sald Hodg- son, slipping his arm about ther waist. “There’s no doubt a fleet of aeroplanes will be organized to take us from the upper levels. At present we are simply off our bases.”’ All’s Well That Ends Well. Mi {SS PERKINS’ head went down on Cyrus Hodgson's shoulder. The sensation of that wealth of hair against his cheek threw the man’s prudence to the winds. *‘Miss Perkins—Ada, I love you,’’ he cried. ‘I love you, but I thought I was too old for you. Now I can restrain myself no longer. I want to be your husband, to pass through life with you— yes, even if our lives are fo be in the Platt building for ever and ever.”’ “This is so unexpected—so sudden, Mr. Hodgson,”’ faltered Miss Perkins. “But my answer—may I answer you when it is more private?’’ Of a sudden Cyrus Hodgson perceived that they were alone no longer. They were in the elevator, but right side utp, and a sympathetic crowd surrounded them. He was lying on his back and Miss Perkins was bending over him, “Nasty jar you got, Mr. Hodgson,” said the elevator man. ‘‘I couldn’t help it. I was closing the gate and I warned you not to jump, as you always do. Why, you're all right now, sir.” Hodgson staggered to his -feet and looked about him. He was standing at the bottom of the Platt building, which had resumed its right position, and Miss Perkins was by his side, dabbing his forehead with eau de cologne. “Thank heaven you-are better, dear,’’ she murmured, He slipped his arm about her. ‘‘What was I saying?’ he asked vaguely. “Oh, Cyrus—let us talk it over where we can be more private,’’ answered Miss Perkins.

Boston Oyster Pie.—Take a quantity of oysters, put into a saucepan and cook in their own Wquor; or, if neces- sary, add a little water; boil 3 or 4 m>- dium-sized potatoes until done, then cut in slices; line a pudding dish half way up fts sides with puff paste, turn a small teacup bottom up in the middle of the dish to keep up the top crust, put in first a layer of oysters and then a few potatoes, season with bits of butter and a little salt and pepper and dredge with flour; add another layer of oysters and so on until the dish is filled; add the liquor in whicn the oysters were cooked. There should be as much liquid as for chicken or other meat pie. Cover with top crust, cut places for steam to escape and bake % of an hour. Creamy Rice Pudding.—It must be baked very slowly, not more than a gentle simmer: One quart of milk, 4 teaspoons of rice, heaped; 4 table- spoons of sugar (more if you want it sweeter), a little salt, about a halt level teaspoon of cinnamon; bake about 2 hours in a moderate oven, stirring frequently in the beginning to keep the rice from settling; when done the rice should be well swollen and tender and the milk creamy. Don’t let it cook until thick and stiff. Serve cold. Clam Pie.—Take a can of clams or a pint of fresh clams, place in deep dish with 1 cup of cracker crumbs, 1 large onion; sliced, pepper, salt and drop pieces of butter over top; add clam juice and | sweet milk. Cover this with a good rich paste same as for chicken pie. Bake brown in oven.

They went to the beach every day, and when the tide was out they could run along the hard, smooth sand for a long distance, One day they walked farther than usual, and on a point of land a little way from the water they saw a house, As they came nearer to it Joseph said: “There is a light in the window.” “It must be the sun shining on the window pane,” said Clara. “No one would have a light burning in the day time.” They were curious to see what it was and walked nearer. When they were in front of the house they saw in the window a lighted lamp. “They forgot to blow it out,” said Clara. “We ought to tell them, for the people around here do not have enough money to waste in that way.” So they went to the door and knocked. A very old lady opened the door, and Joseph said: “We came to tell you that your lamp is lighted in the front window. We thought you forgot to blow it out.” HE old lady smiled very sweetly and shook her head. “No”, she said, “I have just filled it and lighted it; now it will burn until night, and. then I will fill it again.” The children did not know just what to say, and the old lady said: “Won’t you come in and see my ships?’ “Come in here,’ said the old lady, “and I will show you my ships.” She opened a door into the room where the lamp was burning, and the children saw around the room ships of all kinds, from full-rigged salling crafts to tiny rowboats. “Who made all these pretty ships?” asked Clara. “The captain and my boys,” replied the old lady, “ang while they are away these ships keep me company.” ‘Is your husband on a voyage now?’ asked Joseph. “Yes,” she replied, “and John and Tom are with him. I expect them home today,”’ she said, as she looked out across the water. Then she turned the lamp a little higher. “I told them I would keep this Nght burning every night, and now I light it in the day- time, too, because it might be foggy out there and they might sail right past if they ‘did not see the light.’ “Have they been gone long?” asked | Clara. ‘ ‘‘Yes,”’ replied the old lady “this is the longest voyage they ever made, but I expect them home today,” she said again.

They said good-by to the old lady and thanked her for showing them her ships. “Come again,” said the old lady. “Capt.

NE of those expected. things that e so often happen and are such a factor in making baseball popular was injectéd into the last min- ute of play between the Browns and Buffaloes yesterday and converted a victory for the Rickeyites into a 5 tu 4 defeat. With two out in the last half of the ninth and the bases filled, Agnew threw the ball away. While Agnew’s toss to catch Frierson off first let in the winnl run, he must not be ex- clusively rged with the loss of the game. It was. Earl Hamilton’s slow pall, to which the Buffaloes took kind- ay that proved the undoing of Rickey’s _ Loudermilk fully justified Rickey's es- timation of him, especially as to his . . At the end of the seventh in- ning, when the game seemed to be safe- ly tucked away, Loudermilk abandoned the mound in favor of the diminutive ton. The re was ‘then 4 to 1 in favor of the owns. Hamilton, serving u up a ball with the speed of chilled molasses was touched for a triple, double and a single in the eighth, and with one gone in the ninth was nicked for a single by Seitz. Lemon walked, Hille popped out and Frierson was given free transportation, filling the bases. There were three and two on McDonald when Agnew slammed the ball’ down to first to catch Frierson. The ball has not been heard from. As it disappeared in the negro bleachers down the right field line the runners saun\ered in to the counting station. The Wildness of all the pitchers was largely responsible for the game lasting nearly two hours and a half as it was fielded in fairly good form. Spec- tacular catches were made by Shotton and Clarence Walker and the latter gave a remarkable exhibition of return- ing fly balls to the infield. James was slightly injured yesterday afternoon during practice. He wes hit on the left thumb by a batted ball.

Anson, who once had a gold mine locked up in his safety deposit box and piffled it away trying to eke an existence out of a billiard hall, Anson is noted for other things, of which may be mentioned a few trifles like being about the best long- term hitter that ever lived, probably the best first baseman of all time, and the man who held down a job as manager of the same team longer than any other leader that ever defied Father Time. But the fact that excites the sym- pathies of most fans is that he is now, at an advanced age, extracting a bare living as a vaudevillian, when he might have been reélling about in Charley Murphy’s fi ancial shoes, care-free and with a million on the sun- ny side. How It Happened. ON, who saved’ a block of Cubs’ gtock from his connection with the Chicago club as its manager for 21 years (1877 to 1897), went into the billiard hall business on his re- tirement, with his baseball stock in safe deposit. The billiard business proved about ag profitable to “Cap” as the European war is to Germany. Off to the hock shop went the Cubs’ stock, to pay the rent of the billiard ha So that when crafty Charley Mur- phy came along and sized up the Cubs’ situation, he easily obtained Anson's consent to let Ee his norerane for nothin almost. resident Jim Hart was , friction with his associates and tn fans, so he, too, put his stock on the market. A short time after this the clab was sold to Murphy, acting for Charles P. Taft, for $105,000, The team had finished third the year previous! Fatal move. The billiard hall busi- ness of Cap was engulfed, a few months later, and with it the rem- nants of the sale of the Cubs’ stock. That was in 1905. The Cubs then won three pennants in a row and have never Seen worse than third since. The club has made as high as $400,- 09 in one season and had never earned less than $100, 000° until yes rean, When the war broke and third lehaue butted into Chicago. = ae club was ‘so good that Charles Taft refused to sell it for $750,- 560 in 1914, although it owned no grounds and had a sree a of the vintage of long, long Cap had a nice } ttle bloo “ol stock. Had he retained it, his future would have been secure against the rude buffets to which old age and penury new makes him particularly sensi- tiv if he had only taken the other road at the crossways— * * 7” The Real $100,000 Infield. N these days of bughouse baseball values the Athletics’ infield, now broken up, has been referred to as the "$100,000 quartet,”’ with the tacit under- atanding that this meant the greatest inner defense of all times. But utter this view sotto voce, if in the presence of Cap Anson. Old-timers will tell you that the real $100,000 in- field was the one that Cap built up and led for several years with such con- spicuous success. This quartet from 1880 to 1883 consist- ed of Anson at first base, Ed William- son at third base, Joe Quest at second hase and Tommy Burns at shortstop. After that the quartet even stronger by the addition of the famous Fred Pfeffer, who took the place of Quest at second base. He Can’t It. ARKING back is one of the strong points of the veteran. He can’t help himself, poor fellow, So Anson, who is showing here. this week at a lo- cal theater, indulged in a little of the old-time stuff. There ‘have heen hitters who averaged more than Anson fer a term of .years, but Bone whe passed the 20 season mark and did tt. Amson hit .337 average fer the 22 years of his big league existence, His twenty-second sea- son, in 1807, he batted .303-—think of that. In 1887 he batted 421, the top mark of his hitting.

NEW YORK, March 15.—The Evening Post, in its _fopyighted financial re- view today, sa “Since the maadty important. news of the day was the publication of the al- lied Governments’ embargo on neutral trade with Germany, it might perhaps have been expected that the Stock Ex- change would pass some judgment or. that measure. But the stock market had apparently no opinion to express. Prices held firm, and there were nu- 837 | merous fractional advances, but tred- ing was light, and no movement of im- portance occurred in any direction. “That this declaration of blockade, without observing the legal forms of a blockade, is as far outside the rights of belligerent Powers as Was Germany’s own threat of torpedoing neutral ves- sels in the ‘war zone,’ Wall street knows as well as the pundits on inter- national law. But the market weighs the prospect of actual help or _ hin- drance to American interests and Amer- ican trade, and it seemed, today at any rate, to conclude that the actual injury foreshadowed was cog pose Exports Are ftieav “Tn Janunry—the latest period for which details are at hand—this coun- try exported $6,300,000 merchandise to Germany against $34,300,000 in January, i9id: whereas to France and England sent $134,000,000, as against $77 600, 000. From this the fi- nancial community apparently de- duces that the recent attempt by Ger- many to stop the neutral trade with the allies was considerablv more of a direct threat at our legitimate busi- ness than England's proposed embar- ZO on Germany “While the "Stock Exchange was not affected at all by today’s spe- cific annouricement, the foreign ex- change market temporarily was. Ster- ling advanced % cent, on the theory that exports might be reduced; but all of that advance was promptly lost. Thig action of exchange on Lon- don was rendered even more signifi- cant from the fact that other cir- cumstancés seemed to warrant the advance. Discount rates on the open London market rose today to 2% per cent, comparing with % Saturday and 14% a week ago. The Bank o land’s corrective influence was clearly at work; but the sterling mar- ket hardly responded. “German exchange was distinctly strong—no doubt a somewhat curious commentary on the Dnglish order in council, but as a matter of fact hard- ly connected with it. Today’s price was nearly 2 per cent above the re- cent low figure, and is the highest reached for three weeks past. This strength was commonly ascribed to the scattered subscriptions in our market to the German war loan: the prevent MA street estimate today was tha hey might foot up $10,- 000 “000 to sis 000,000 New York + Large. “The general news of the day repeat- ed. what has of late become familiar; yet it had some bearing on the Anglo- German embargo. Actual figures of last week’s merchandise exports from New York broke all records in the history of the port. They were $40,896,000, which is $10,000,000 above any previous week this year, and the week’s imports were decidedly the smallest thus far in 1915. “Today's wheat market advanced again, clearly on export purchases: A highly interesting sidelight was cast py today’s report of last week’s clearances from all the world’s wheat exporting 4 countries. From North America there was an increase of 5,000,000 bushels or 120 per cent over last year. But Rus- sia, Australia and the Danube states, which sent out 6,700,000 bushels in the same week of 1914, did not export a bushel last week. Much has been said of the importance of German purchases to our cotton market; yet the price of spot cotton went today to the highest level since the war began.”’ “No action has been taken yet by the Federal Reserve Board locking towards the rediscounting by one re- serve bank of paver taken by another reserve bank. The subject is still un- der discussion at Washington, but the board has done nothing more than to name a rate for such accommoda- tion tn case it becomes desirable for the reserve banks of the East to re- discount the paper held now by the reserve banks at the South. The rate will be 8% per cent for 30-day pa- er and 4 per cent for longer periods.’ ome of t banks will seek to en- large their investments in the near future, unless the demand for redis- counting becomes more of a factor. As it is, the business of buying ac- ceptances have been largely confined to the reserve’ banks of the large ‘cities. “There has been an excellent de- mand for the best class of accept- ances, and it igs probable that other reserve banks will become heavy pur- -chasers of these securities in the near future. The trust companies have been, large buyers for some _ time past. . -~ — DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S TRADING IN WALL STREET NEW RK, Merch 15.—Improvement in the = in situation aid B yg ig: of an early decision in the suit Government the United States Steel Corpora- . were used to stimulate the market during the early tra The spurt was not well raninteined. owever. profit-taking in the motors and other spécialties soo giv- list a setback.
