By Asscciated Press. LONDON, April %4.—The War Office today gave out the following official note: “The fight for the ground into which ‘the Germans penetrated between Steen- 3 4 gtraate and Langmarck (north of Ypres) continues. The loss of this part of tke line laid bare the left of the Canadian division, which was forced to fall back in order to keep in touch with the right of the neighboring troops. “In the rear of the latter had been four Canadian 4.7 guna which thus passed into the hands of the enemy. But some hours later the Canadians made a most brilliant and successful advance, a these guns and taking a w,-@onsiderable numher of German. prison- A , N ” series of engagements r ~— ers, including a Colonel. “The Canadians had many casualties, but their gallantry and determination undoubtedly saved the situation. Their conduct has been magnificent through- out.”’ Battle Line 10 Miles Long. The battle front now the scene of a recalling the fighting of last October is roughly 10 ‘miles long from the region of Bix- schoote in the north to St. Eloi in the south. Driven from Hill No. 6 to the south of Ypres and faijing to retake it by a rounter attack, ihe Germans launched 4 sudden advance northeast of tte town and, after stupifying and killing men in the first trenches with deadiv gases, according to British official re- perts, they drove a wedge of infantry . forward, forcing the French and Be'- * gians back toward and, at some pointe, appdrentliy across the Yser (Ypres), Canal, a maneuver which at the same time compelled the british line north of Ypres to fall back to conform with the French. Although the advance of the Germans was considerable, extending, accordi:iz to Berlin dispatches, over a front of Ave miles, French, Belgian and British foreces—the French occupying the cen- ter, the Belgians the left and the Bri'. ish the right of the line—immediateiy initiated © counter attack, the result of which was to compel the Germans to give up some cf the ground they had taken and force them in a northeast- erly direction toward Langemarck, from which place the attack started. Some of the London newspapers to- day characterize this German rush aa ancther attempt to break through to Calais, and some estimates say *hey » have 600,000 men available for this ef- | tort. By this time the British are pre- sumably well strengthened and have consolidated their position on Hill No. 60. The hardest fighting, consequently is expected north of Ypres. Asphyxiating Gas Produced, Field Marshal Sir John French, com- mander-in-chief of the British forces, communicated the following under yes- terday’s date regarding the fighting near Ypres. Thursday evening the en- emy developed an attack*on the French } troops on our left in the neighborhood of Bixschoote and Langemarck on the north of the'Ypres salient. “This attack was preceded by a heavy bombardment, the enemy at the same time making use of a large number of appliances for the production of asphyx- fating gas. The quantity produced indi- cates long and deliberate preparation for the employment of devices contrary to the terms of The Hague convention to which the enemy subscribed. “The false statement made by the Germans a week ago, to the effect that ™a are using such gases, is now ex- plained. It obviously was an effort to diminish neutral criticism in advance. “During the night the French had to retire from the gas zone,, overwhelmed by the fumes. They have fallen back to the canal in the neighborhood of Boesinghe. Our front remains intact, except on the extreme left, where the troops have had to readjust their line i, order to conform with the French ne, “Two attacks delivered during the | night on our trenches east of | TT ee FAIR, CONTINUED WARM TONIGHT AND TOMORROW THE TEMPERATURES, . » ve VYesterday’s Temperatutres, aut 85 at 4 p. m.

PENSACOLA, Fla., April 24—A new world’s record altitude flight of 10,000 feet in a hydroaeroplane was made here late yesterday by Lieut. P. N. L. Bel- linger at the Naval Aeronautical Sta- tion. In one hour and # minutes Lieut. Bel- linger made his ascent, which, so far as official data shows, never has _ been equaled. He took 16 minutes gliding back to earth. On June 13, 1913, Lieut. Bellinger made the best previous frec- ord for an altitude flight in a hydro- acroplane at Ai.napolis, when he climbed to 6200 feet.

SANTA BARBARA, April 24.—~When Frank Hamer, New York tourist, fish- ing in the Channel today, poked his oar against what he thought must be a slimy black rock protruding slightly above ‘the waves, he turned loose a geyser and rowed for his life to escape from what for a time looked to him like certain death. The seeming rock, transformed by the poke of the oar into a living, moving mass, soon proved to be an immensé whale and Hamer barely got beyond range in time to escape the powerful slashing of the moster’s tail as it dived into the depths of the Channel. The water spout thrown by the whale soaked Hamel to. the skin, water- logging his boat. He was rescued by fishermen, who caught his frantic signal for help. TIRE’S BURSTING BETRAYS THIEF Negro Giving Companion Joy Ride in Ben Schuline’s Car Arrested. The reserves of the Magnolia Avenue Police Station investigating a loud re- port about 3:30 o'clock this morning, found eight negroes inspecting a bursted automobile tire at Grand and Halliday avenues. The machine's ownership was traced to Ben M. Schuline of 4160 Del- mar boulevard, whose garage was brok- en into about 10 o'clock last night. One of the negroes, Jerre Tull, who gave his address as 4111 Washington boulevard, admitted he had taken the car and said he was giving his com- panions a “joy ride.’’ He was arrested. |} Children of Legrand, DRILL FRAME HITS AN ELECTRIC WIRE, FOREMAN KILLED High Tension Current Passes Through the Body of George Hickman, 43 Years Old.

CAMPB DOCTOR TESTIFIES Walter Chappell Tells of Being Called to Attend Woman at Grand Union Hotel. CONTESTANTS’ CASE ENDS Defense to Be Resumed Monday —Mrs. Campbell and Mrs. Burkham in Court. Dr. Walter Franklin Chappell called to the Grand Union Hotel, York, to attend a woman purporting to be Mrs. Florence Campbell, several days Campbell is supposed to have was New after Mrs. been removed from that hotel to the Grand Hotel, according to Chappell’s deposition, on behalf of the defense read yesterday to the jury in the Campbell will case, in Judge Kinsey’s court. The doctor on cross-examination, said he saw no baby there. The position of the defense in the case, in which the parentage of Lois Ann Burkham is.the issue, is that the child was born at the Grand Union Hotcl on March 17, 1895, and that Mrs. Camp- bell and the child were moved the next day to the Grand Hote!. The contention of the contestants is that the child was born at the Grand Union Hotel to Mrs. Csear Hicks and given to Mrs. Campbell, who took it to the Grand Hotel, leaving Mrs. Hicks at the Grand Union. Mrs. Hicks. the contestants allege, was at the Grand Union Hotel under the name of Mrs. Campbell. ldentifies Dr. Smith’s Handwriting. Dr. Chappell’s deposition was taken by} the defense for the purpose of verifying the handwriting of Dr. A. H. Smith, hy ceceased partner, who made out a birt, €% certificate in which Mr. and Mrs. Camp. | beli were named as the parents of the cauild. Chappell identified Smith’s hand- writing in the birth certificate, and in 4 letter bearing his signature, which pur- ports to have been sent to Mrs. Camp- kell after her return to St. Louis, giving lier directions about caring for her health. It was on cross-examination by L. Yrank Ottofy, attorney for the contest- ants, that Dr. Chappell stated that a call came one day from the Grand Union Eiotel for Dr. Smith, who had attended a1 woman in confinement there several Gays before. Dr. Smith was not in, and IDbr. Chappell answered the call. He found a woman in bed in a room at the hotel. He saw no baby. Chappell was asked if he had ever seen Mrs. Campbell. He answered: “Well, I don’t know,” and explained that a woman had called on him a short time before his deposition was taken and said she was Mrs. Campbell and asked him if he recognized her. He told her that he did not. “You won’t say that the woman who called on you was this Mrs. Campbell who was there in bed?’’ he was asked. His answer was ‘“No.”’ He was unable to remember the year, but recalled the circumstance because it was the only confinement case that was attended by Dr. Smith at the Grand Union. He was unable to say that the woman was Mrs. Campbell. Contestants Case Closes. The contestants’ case Was closed short- ly after noon yesterday, rather sooner than was expected, but it is expected that considerable testimony will be of- fered by Attorney Ottofy in rebuttal. The crowd that filled the courtroom, hoping to hear the testimony of Mrs. Campbell and Mrs. Burkham, was dis- appointed. Both were in the courtrooin for the first time and attracted a great deal of notice. Mrs. Campbell's strik- ing black attire emphasized the attrac- tions which she retains in spite of her advanced years. Mrs. Burkham also wore a black gown, so fashioned as ‘o give her a touch of girlishness. They sat among the crowd of lawyers and agents for the defense and during inter- missions chatted rather vivaciously with acquaintances. They were accom- panied by Mrs. R. Graham Frost and a nurse and Elzey Burkham, husband of Mrs. Burkham. No Demurrer Filed. It was considered significant by those who have followed the case that the de- fense, at the close of the contestants’ testimony, did not file a demurrer and ask that the Judge take the case from the jury and dismiss it. This is usually done when the defense takes the posi- tion that there has not been sufficient evidence to warrant submission of the issue to the jury. While such a motion is seldom granted, it is frequently filed as a formality and as an _ indication that the defense does not think that a case of any strength has been made. Morton Jourdan, for the defense, introduced the birth certificate. Otto- fy objected that it was admissable only as showing that a birth occurred at the time and place indicated and not as tending to establish who the parents were, but it was read to the jury. There was no. sessiom@ef the court to- day, but the taking. of testimony for the defense will be resumed at 10 a. im. Monday, when it is expected that Mrs. | Campbell will take the stand, UFFIGIAL INDICTED, FORMER DUQUOIN BANK CLERK HELD Grand Jury Returns True Bills Against Two Men After Clos- ing of Horn Institution. DUQUOIN, Ill, April 24.—Follow- ing the return of indictments by the grand jury against two men in con- nection with the failure of the Du- quoin Bank of Henry, Frank Wells, a former employe of the bank, was ar- rested today. He was later released under a $500 bond. Wells is secretary of the Duquoin School Board and special collector of public improve. ment assessments in the city. Fifteen indictments charging em- bezzlements and working of a confi- dence game were returned against an official of the bank, but he has not been arrested. The bank closed last December on the day that Henry Horn Sr., owner of the bank, died. It has never reopened. During the investigation by the grand jury of the Duquoin City Court, a summons for Henry Horn Jr., cashier of the bank, to appear as a witness, was issued, but court officers reported that they were unable to find him. Following the death of Henry Horn Sr., the founder and sole owner of the bank, and the refusal of two of his sons to act as executors of the estate. Ww. W. Parks, a son-in-law, and the Rev. Father C. H. Eschmann, pastor of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church, of which Horn was a member, took pos- session of the estate. Their report, made public Feb. 6, showed that only $1654.01 remained in the bank, although the deposits and other claims against the estate amount- ed to more than $300,000. Among the assets was an item markea “disputed overdraft” for $89,045.45. The assets were listed by the appraisers at $404,706.02, but many of the notes and securities were found to be of doubt- ful value. The disputed overdrafts, according the report, consisted of two items whicn were charged against the account of Henry Horn Sr. a few days before his death, although he Was unable to léave his bed at the time and nad not been actively in charge of the bank’s affairs to | for several months, stag | | JAPAN REPORTED U HAVE SENT AN ULTIMATUM Rumored Demand on China Asks for Satisfactory Reply Within 3 Days.

GRANTING OF JURY FOR THAW TO BE APPEALED BY STATE Attorney-General Holds Judge Hendrick Exceeded His Power. NEW YORK, April 24.—Harry K. Thaw, who went to sleep in the Tombs prison iast night elated by his belief that he had won his long fight for a jury trial to test his sanity, awoke to- day to learn that he must await a de- cision of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court before such a hearing would be certain. This new check in his attempt legally tc obtain his freedom from the Mattea wan Ayslum to which Justice Page had ordered him returned, was due to the announcement by Attorney-Genera) Woodbury that the State would make application to the Appellate Division icr a writ of prohibition dgainst the or- der for a jury trial granted yesterday by Justice Hendrick. Woodbury s termination was made public after Thaw tad retired for the night.

A. H. Frederick entered Judge Jones’ courtroom at 12:30 p. a. today and pleaded guilty to one of four indictments charging first degree forgery. Sentence was passed upon him at once, the penalty being fixed at 10 years in the penitentiary. Frederick was taken in custody by Sheriff Dickmann and left (he eourtroom in charge of Chief Deputy Sheriff Joseph Dickmann Jr. accompanied by Selden P. Spencer. untomobile, and it was expected that the deputy and his prisoner would board a train at Union Station at 2 to Tower Grove Station. They were accompanied by Spencer, Henry Kortjohn Jr., Frederick's at- torney, and a man named Wines, a neighbor of Frederick, when they ar- rived at the station. They went to the platform as the train approached and when it stopped they made a rush for it. Spencer collided with a photographer who was trying to. take a snapshot of Frederick and then apologized for his awkwardness. The others surrounded Frederick and increased the photog- rapher's difficulties. Frederick hurried along with consid- erable agility and was the first climb on the train. He did not tur to shake hands with his. friends, bur they patted him on the back and shout- ed ‘‘good-by.”” Dickman climbed up after him and they disappeared in the train. The four indictments against Freder- ick were returned in Judge Jones’ court at 10 a. m. Leans on Arm of Lawye>. tn It was not generally known that I’'rederick would enter a plea so soon after the return of the indictments and the courtroom was not crowded when he walked into the main entrance and down the aisle, leaning on the arm of his attorney, Henry Kortjohn. Frederick's eyes were turned toward the floor and he was visibly nervous. When he took his seat at a table in- xide the bar enclosure he crossed his legs and placed his hat on his knee. He nervously drummed with his fingers, first on the hat and then on the table Selden P. Spencer, one of Fredericks’ counsel, already was in the courtroom and word was sent to Judge Jones, who had been waiting in his chamber ad- joining the courtroom. Circuit Attorney Harvey, who also had been waiting. advanced to the bar and picked up from the clerk's desk the four indictments against Frederick. Harvey said: “Your Honor, August H. Frederick its in court prepared to enter a plea of guilty on a charge of first degree forgery. The specific charge on which he desires to plead is that on Nov. 12, 1910, he forged the name of Ester Ellis on a deed of trust issued against property in the city of 8t. Louls. Watives Reading of Indictment. Attorney Kortjohn then turned to Frederick and said: “Do you waive the reading of the indictment?” Without looking toward Kortjohn Frederick nodded his head. “Is that right?’ asked Kortjohn. Again Fred- erick nodded. ‘ Frederick then stood up and leaned against # ‘small table near the clerks desk. Hig hands trembled and his body swayed. “Do you desire to plead guilty to the charge in this indictment?’ asked Kort- john. For a third time Frederick nodded his head. He did not utter a word while in the courtroom. Circuit Attorney Harvey then recom- mended that a 10-year sentence be im- and that a nolle pros be en- in the remaining three indict- posed tered nenta. Judge Jones then said: “It is the sentence of the Court that you serve 10 years in the penitentiary.” Frederick was taken in charge p.m. Instead they went at once by Sheriff Dickmann ané@ placed under guard in the office of the chief diagnostician of the Health Department in the basement of the Municipal Courts Building. Asked if he had a statement to make Fred- erick said: “Mr. Spencer, my lawyer, has my statement.” Attorney Spencer said he had pre- pared a statement which he would give out later in the day at his of- fice. “This In Pretty Hard.” Frederick departed from the Mu- nicipal Courts Building ostensibly for ‘Union Station in a closed automobile at 1 p. m. Before this ha was Waee {cinnated by Dr. M. C. Woodruff and” br. C. H. Lawrence of the Health De- partment. Dr. Woodruff told reporters’ that while being vaccinated Frederctek said: “This is pretty hard. We think we can make restitution, but Wwe can't. ‘Dr. Woodruff sald thie was the only reference Frederick made to his case. The automobile was in waiting vw a courtyard of the building and was headed toward the Fourteenth street entrance. When Frederick left Dr. Woodruff's office to go to the entrance he ran about 230 feet. The automobile reached the entrance just as he did and he jumped into the machine, appar- ently trying to dodge newspaper photug- raphers. Spencer was in the machine and Depu- ty Sheriff Joseph F. Dickmann Jr, got in with Frederick. He will accompany Frederick to Jefferson City. Dickman said Frederick would take lunch at Union Station. Frederick and Crone Indicted. Frederick and Charles C. Crone each were indicted on four different charges of first degree forgery by the April grand jury, which made a partial report to Circuit Judge Jones at 10 o'clock this morning. Although Frederick and Crone could have been indicted on charges of forg- ing notes, for which the penalty is from two to seven years in the peniten- tlary, the indictments were drawn for first degree forgery, for which the min- imum punishment is imprisonment for 1@ years.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 24.—Infor- mation contained in letters and tele- grams passing between John D. Rocke- feller Jr. and officers of the Colorado made public here by Frank P. Walsh, chairman of the Fuel and Iron Co., Federal Industrial Relations Committee, caused Walsh to announce hearing concerning the coal miners’ strike in Colorado would be reopened, and the junior Rockefeller recalled to the witness stand. Beside Rockefeller, J. president of the Colorado Iron Co.; L. M. Bowers, the company’s Executive and IVy Lee, Rockefeller’s agent, will be called to testify. hearing will open in Washington May 4, Walsh said. the Rev. Dr. J. W. presiding elder of the MH. South. The correspondence was obtained by Walsh from Rockefeller’s New York of- fice in compliance with a demand of the commission. It was not forthcom- ing, Walsh announced, in time for its contents to be used at the recent hear- ing in New York, and he considered the information. contained in it of a character to warrant the reopening of the hearing. What Correspondence Shows. “The commission has today made as a part of its record,’’ Walsh said, ‘‘a mass of correspondence not only show- ing that the Rockefellers were in con- stant touch with every phase of the Colorado coal strike situation, but they knew the strike was coming and were prepared for it. “Mr. Rockefeller testified at the hear- ing of the commisaion in New York and aiso before the Congressional Investi- gating Committee that he had kept his hands off the strike situation and had no knowledge of conditions in the coal fields. These letters and _ telegrams which we nave today filed in the record make it plain that every step taken by the Rockefeller agents in Colorado in the strike was taken with the knowledge and assent of Mr. Rockefeller’s office in New York. “In other letters Mr. Bowers indulges in some political speculations that are of importance. in a letter to Mr. Rocke- feller he write "The derttea "has brought to the front an issue whica will secure the attention and, I believe, the co-operation of the ousiness men of the country, regardless of political affiliations—to force candi- dates for offices to come out in the open and decirfe their attitude toward the rights of employers and employes to run ati open shop.

Church, out in opposition to the open shop.’ Songht to Impress President. “Another ainazing revelation in this correspcndence is that contained in let- ters exchanged between Rockefeller, time Gov. Ammons was acting in the strike adjustment. The letters deal first with the desire and plans @ the Rocke- fellers to get their side ot the question before President Wilson. Under date of June 10, 1914, Mr. Rockefeller wrote this to Mr. Lee: * “Several points in my memorandum, however, could well, even more appro- piiately be used in the letter from Gov. Ainmons to President Wilson, which you Ale proposing to prepare as soon ag the Major's memorandum reaches you, which I hope will be very shortly.’ “We do not know what this proposed letter or this memorandum contained, bul we expect to find out,"’ Walsh said. “The correspondences shows that there were other letters, too, which Mr. Les ‘as to prepare for Gov.

Officials Announce Firm Stand. ‘‘Andther telegram dated a week after the strike had begun,’ fr6m Mr. Bowers to Mr. Rockefeller, declares that ‘he and his fellow officials would never recede from the stand they had taken in the strike, and continues: “The writer, with every official of this company, will stand behind this declaration until our bones are bleached as white as chalk in these Rocky Mountains.’ “Then,’’ Walsh said, note of cheer: “ ‘Several of our mines are working from one-half to two-thirds capacity, and {if we can continue undisturbed we can keep our steel works running and supply our railroad friends with coal to keep them emid until the strike Is over.’ “Nov. 21, Secretary Wilson of the De- partment of Labor, made an effort to intervene in the strike and sent 4 tels- gram to Mr. Rockefeller Jr., asking him to authorize representatives of the oper- ators to meet representatives of the miners and confer on the basis of a settlement. Mr. Rockefeller’s reply, which with the Secretary's telegram, is filed with the commission, was a flat refusal, coupled with the statement that the action of the mine executive had his cordial support and that he would sup- port them to the end. “Throughout the correspondence the idea of creating the proper im- pression with the public occupies an important place,’ declared Walsh.

NEW YORK, April 24.—Edward N. Breitung, capitalist, was called to the stand when the suit for $250,000, brought against him and his wif2z by Max Fred- erick Kleist, a coachman, for alienation uf the affection of their daughter, Juliet, was resumed in the United States Dis- tric Court today. Breitung’s testimony, a resume of that given at the first hearing of the suit which ended in a mistrial, was that he was disposed to act in Kleist’s interest from the start and was willing to help him. On cross-examination, however, breitung admitted that on one occasion he was going to strike and kick Kleist, but Juliet intervened. This was when Kleist called on his parents-in-law here, Breitung said Kleist was wearing ‘‘my socks, cravat and scarf pin.”’ “Why were you going to strike him?’ the witness was asked. ‘‘Because he made a slighting remark about my daughter. He made slighting remarks first about Mrs. Breitung’s family and then about my own family.” Kleist protested. the witness said, that the socks, cravat and scarf pin were ziven to him by Juliet. After Breitung’s anger had cooled, he said, he asked Kleist to go to New Mexico. Witness said he did this to give him a chance to make good. Breitung said his daughter had asked him to have the marriage annulled. The suggestion came from her, not the witness. He told her, without giving uny reason, that it could not be done, he said. “She said she wanted to get an annull- ment and get married again,’ Breitung testified. ‘‘She said she was somewhat ashamed.”’ Frederick on Way To Serve 10 Years In Penitentiary Continued From Page One.

The news story in yesterday’s Post- Dispatch telling of the work being done in six other large American cities against tuberculosis, and setting forth in contrast the failure of St. Louis to do anything, as a municipality, in preven- tive work, was read with interest at the city hall, where the year’s apportion- ment of funds for city work is being completed. A dispatch from Cleveland, received too late for publication yesterday, shows that Cleveland is in line “with New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore and Cincinnati, whose meth- ods and expenditures were related. The annual appropriation for anti- tuberculosis work in Cleveland, the dis- patch states, is $39,282 There are six dispensaries, each under a salaried phy- sician. There are 26 visiting nurses. Cleveland has a sanitarium for early cases, with 225 beds; a sanatarium for advanced cases, with 100 beds; a colony for children, with 50 beds, and a day camp, with capacity for 20. A city ordi- nance requires the registration of cases and the removal of those so situated as to be dangerous to others. Disinfection of dwellings is also carried on. No Dispensaries Here, In comparison with this showing, St. Louis has no tuberculosis dispensaries, no visiting nurses, and a small municipal hospital (Koch) which, in practice, is for advanced cases only. St. Louis has disinfection, conducted by the regular fumigators of the Health Department, in houses where tuvercu- losis patients have died. It has no re- quirement for the reporting of cases by physicians, and no means of compelling the removal of a patient who is a men- ace to others. Health Commissioner Starkloff, dis- cussing tuese conditions with a Post- Dispatch reporter, said: “A charitable woman, not found a family of four in which the wife and mother suffered from tuber- culcsis. The family was without a suit- gbie sleeping place, and this woman bought a bed and bedding for th» tuberculosis patient. The next time she went to call, she saw no other bedding around the place, and she _ learned that the man, wife and two children were all sleeping in the new bed and that the others were in far greater peril of infection than they had been befor:. Need of Visiting Nurses. “Now, this 1s the sort of thing that we need visiting nurses to prevent. The municipal visiting nurse is the first thing we need, and if this department had the appropriation, we could star, & corps of such nurses at once and we would show results. ‘The nurses would educate families in precautions against’ tuberculosis. “ney would teach the proper methods e° infant care and feeding. They would repert incipient cases of tuberculos's and take measures to protect relatives and neighbors from infection. ‘The ultimate step in fighting tuber- culosis must be the isolation of pa- iients. Tuberculosis is more dangerwus than the diseases for which we. now ‘eclate patients. People are shamed of ‘uberculosis because of the false ides thal it is nereditary. It is not hered.- tary—it is infect'ous. When this false pride is overcome and when our physi- cians are required to report tuberculosis cases, we will be in a way to conqucr the disease. ‘While the dispensaries would not be under the control of this department. but under the hospital department, I am sure that tuberculosis dispensaries, on the New York and Chicago plan. wonld work in co-operation with the Visiting nurse system. The health and hospital authorities know what to cc. It is only a question of getting - tlie money.”’ long ago, a | Get the Monday-Night Habit!

RTGS" > FLERE “SOT PPro ye FP ¢ at eee ® ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Aispatches from six large Amer- ican cities, printed in yester- day's Post-Dispatch, and in a dis- patch from Cleveland, received too late for use yesterday, show that St. Louis is the only ctty of its rank which does nothing, as a municipal- ity, to prevent the spread of tuber- eulosis. These dispatches, compared with the facts of the iocal situation, show that: New York has 29 free tu- berculosis dispensaries, Chi- cago has 10, Cleveland has 6, Philadelphia has 4, Baltimore has 3, Boston has 1, Cincin- nati has 1. St, Louis has none. New York has 200 munici- pal visiting nurses, Chicago has 75, Philadelphia 50, Bos- ton 50, Cleveland 26 and Baltimore 17. Piss and figures contained in St. Louis Only Large City Not Fighting Tuberculosis St. Leuls has none. in the matter of public and private hospital capacity for tuberculosis patients New York has 5850 beds, Chicago has 1800 beds, Philadelphia has 750 beds, Boston has 637 beds, Baltimore has 262 beds, Cincinnati has 680 beds, Cleveland has 450 beds. St. Louls has 260 beds, of which 150 are at Koch Hos- pital, The result of these conditions is shown in the comparative figures showing the percentage of deaths from tuberculosis to total number of deaths from all causes. This per- centage, for 1913, was: New York, 6.16 per cent; Baltimore, 8.58 per cent; Boston, 8.97 per cent; Philadelphia, 10.15 per cent; Chicago, 10.94 per cent. St. Louis, 11.41 per cent (in 1914, 13 per cent). ee ee ee eee ee —— MT QUILLIN TO GET PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION PLACE Former Circuit Judge to Succeed F. A. Wightman, Who Goes to Frisco System. Simultaneously with the announce- ment in Springfield, Mo., yesterday that Frank A. Wightman, a member of the Missouri Public Service Com- mission, had been appointed Superin- tendent of Safety of the Frisco Sys- tem, Gov. Major in Jefferson City an- nounced that he had accepted Wight- man’s resignation and would appoint former Circuit Judge Eugene Mc- Quillan of St. Louis a member of the commission. Wightman’s term as a commissioner expired April 15. He was an appli- cant for reappointment and had re- ceived the indorsement of many Re- publicans and railway men's organi- zations throughout the State. The Governor's failure to make an announcement of his intentions toward a reappointment of Wightman caused Wightman's friends’ several weeks ago almost to abandon hope. Wightman has had the offer from the Frisco for several months, and it has been known that he would accept it only if he decided he was not to be reappointed. Frisco officials have been holding the position of Superintendent of Safety open to Wightman for several months, but are said to have informed him that he either must acept it or it would be tendered to some other person. Wightman is a Republican anc his appointment to the commission two years ago was due to the fact that he was a member of the Railroad and Warehouse Commission, which wis abolished when the Public Service Com mission was created. Gov. Major pro- vided piaces for all members of the Railroad and Warehouse Commission. either on the Public Service Commissiun or elsewhere. Judge McQuillin is a Republican. There is no requirement of law that the commission shall be bipartisan or nonpartisan, but Gov. Major has kept two Republicans on the commission, which has five members. Wightman’s appointment to the com- mission was for a short term of two ‘ears. Judge McQuillin will be ap- pointed for six years. Wightman was a passenger conductor on the Frisco for nearly ™% years be- fore his election to the Railroad and Warehouse Commission. He formerly resided at Monett. His home and office will be in Springfield. GERMAN- AMERICANS OBJECT TO POST-DISPATCH CARTOON) , Alliance Adopts Verbal Resolution of Protest—Banquet for Former Con- gressman Bartholdt Tonight. The German-American Alliance last night in St. Louis Turner Hall, 1508 Chouteau avenue, adopted a verbal reso- lution of protest against the publica- tion in yesterday’s Post-Dispatch of a cirtoon entitled ‘“‘Now Behave.” The cartoon, based on Secretary of State Bryan's reply to Germany’s note of protest over the sale of War mun.- tions by American firms to Eenglanu, France and hussia, depicted Uncle Sam spanking ine German Ambassador, with: Bryan's reply as the paddle.

So Bh UNE CENT AN HOUR IS WAGE OF MANY WOMEN IN FRANCE Between ‘900,000 and 1,000,- 000 of Them Declared in French Senate to Be Vir- tually Slaves. PARIS, April 24.—Some extraordinary statements regarding sweat-shop wages in this country were brought out in the Senate yesterday, during the debate on a bill to fix a minimum wage through- out France by boards created by the Jean Morel said that be- tween 900,000 and 1,000,000 women in France were now enduring insupport- able servitude and receiving wages bare- ly sufficient to maintain life. M. Morel, Henry Cheron and Edouard Herriot stated that 27 per cent of the workers at home on household linen goods make from 21-10 cents to 4 cents an hour by intense industry. In some provincial centers pay for such work is 1 cent an hour. In Paris 14 per cent of the women working upon undergarments make a maximum of $4 yearly. Makers of ar- tificial flowers, employing much taste and manual dexterity, are able to make in the best season from 80 cents to $l a day, but more than 58 per cent never are able to get beyond 30 or 40 cents. In the provinces women working upon underwear and ready-make clothing are able to make only 10 to 12 cents a day in most cases and rarely as much as 20 cents. M. Morel, who prepared the senatorial committee’s report, went into the ques- tion of how such women are able to live. He cited one case of a woman who made 19 cents a day. She paid 13 cents on an average for bread, cheese and vegetables, leaving 6 cents a day for lodging and clothing. The bill passed its first reading in the Senate. It already had passed the chamber in November, 1912. WAS MISERABLE COULON’T STAND Testifies She Was Restored to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.

Mrs. Zoe Reel, 3% years old, of Pal- myra, lll., married 24 days ago through a matrimonial advertisement, caused the arrest of her husband, Ralph Reel, at Union Station last night, on a charge of attempting to work a confidence game. Sheriff Knemoller of Carlinville, IIL, came here with the warrant yesterday, and, with two city detectives, was wait- ing for Reel when he stepped off «4 train from Chicago. Mrs. Reel was Miss Zoe Arnold. A month ago, she said, she answered an advertisement which appeared in a mat- rimonial magazine and received a reply from Reel. His letter was dated at Springfield, Ill. A few days later he called on her at her home. Reel, she said, told her his uncle had died, leaving an estate in which his share would be about $30,000, but that it would be necessary for him to have about $1500 to pay an attorney to estab- lish his claim. She had inherited $2000 from her father and had invested it in notes. She agreed to negotiate these notes and let Reed have the money. They eloped to Jerseyville April 5 and were married. Mrs. Reel said that after the mar- riage she tried to cash the notes in Palmyra, but failing in this, she turned them over to Reel, who departed the following day for Chicago. Later, on her demand, she said, Reel returned the notes to her by mail and made an appointment to meet her in St. Louis yesterday. In his letter, she said, he told her she must have $500 in cash with her when she met him. She became suspicious hand had the warrant issued. When arrested Reel denied that he had wrongfully tried to obtain money from his bride and said he did not instruct her to bring money with her when she met him in St. Louis.

FASCINATED BY BANKER Says Temptation” of a Home, Dangled by Ralph Lovell, Led Her to South American Trip. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 24—‘‘They say “the road to hell {s paved with good in- tentions.’’ When I ran away with Ralph Lovell, throwing over the man who had loved me truly for five years, and the only man I have ever loved, my inten- tions were good. They led me to hell. “Fascinated by the wealth and per- sonality of Ralph; charmed by the thought of a home of my own after years of slaving here for a living, I yielded to his ardent pleading. With- out marriage I sailed on the same ship with him, lived at the same hotels and then in a leased villa. And I got out of it nothing but torture.’’ Thus Mrs. Lillian Camp Munson summed up the story of her elopement with Ralph Edward Lovell just after he had embezzled $105,000 or more from the First National Bank of Edgewater, N. J. Lovell was 22; she, by her own statement, was 28. It was after the escapade with Lovell that William Munson married her. He has just had her released on $5000 bail. She was arrested in San Francisco and brought east on an indictment charging her with aiding and abetting the em- bezzlement. Smiles as She Tells Story. She told the story of her ‘‘25,000-mile elopement’”’ with no trace of embarrass- ment, and no noticeable recognition of criticism attaching itself to her because of it. She smiled frequently as she re- called incidents of her life with Lovell, and she frankly said that her one regret was the disagreeable notoriety the af- fair was bringing to Munson’s family. ““‘My father and mother are dead,’’ she said. ‘I have no brothers or sis- ters. I came to New York eight or nine years ago and made my iiving through drawing and 0painting. An artists’ life is no bed of roses. “T met Ralph Lovell. He was a fas- cinating boy. His wealth and his flat- tery and his attention just swept me off my feet. He lavished money upon me. 1 rode in taxis where before I hal walked. I dined in the gayest and most expensive restaurants. He showered me with gifts and attentions. Then he pro- posed to me that I go to South Amer- ica with him. ‘“T refused, but he pleaded with ar- dor. He told me of his love. He pic- tured a home of our own together in some quiet town. My life had been hard. The temptation offered of a home of my own just swept me off my feet. I saw the chance for wealth, husband, home and travel and I took it. I never thought of the cost. I forgot all about the love of my sweetheart Bill, who had loved me five years, and whom I was then getting ready to marry. I left with Ralph.”’ “Too much of that Kipling stuff,’’ in- terposed ‘“‘Bill’’ (Muson), who had just entered the room. “He thinks I’m too crazy about Kip- ling,’’ explained Mrs. Munson. ‘Bill, you'll never be able to. stand that ‘Breener, cleaner land’ stuff again, will you?"’ Her Fault They Didn’t Wed. Then she continued her story of the Lovell elopement: “That he did not marry me before we sailed was really my fault'as much as his. Both of us were just too busy, right up to the time we went on board. “Now, I want this understood. I knew nothing about his embezzlement, and never suspected it until I got back after the trip. T thought he was very wealthy. He had told me so. I never asked him where he got his money. I never thought about it. “T want this understood, too, I never led him on to his ruin. He was going the pace before he ever saw me—throw- ing his money around, giving wine parties, entertaining women. “T tried to make a man out of him. I wanted to marry him and make a home for us both. I am older than he, but my influence over him was good, not bad. “We sailed and he began drinking on the boat. Three days out his drunken- ness had so disgusted me that I could hardly stand him. I knew three days after we left here that he had no in- tention of marrying me. Yes, I talked to him about it. He wouldn’t marry me. We landed in Colon, and both of us were ill. We took a train to Panama and staved there 10 days. Then we took a steamer to Lima ana we stayed there 10 days. From Lima we sailed to Buenos Aires and rented a villa. “We lived ther together six weeks and then I could stand it no longer and he finally gave me passage money back home. I went to Rio by myself and sailed for New York, arriving her; Sept. 11. Wanted Woman for Nurse. “What had I got out of it all? Tor- ture and a few junk pieces of jewelrv und a few clothes that wore out easii. “I don’t believe Ralph ever lov ea me. If I hadn't gone with him 1 think he would have got some other pretty woman. I think he wanted the companionship of a pretty woman to take care of him and nurse him. That's just what I was most of the time— his nurse.

He had $27.000.in cash ard he must have spent nearly all. “But, drunk as he almost always was, he never told me of his defalca- tion. The only hint he gave me was colored as on the night before I left him, whet he said: ‘Lil, when you get back to New York you will hear something about me that will make you wish you had never met me.’ ‘“T repeat I don’t believe he ever loved me, for when I1 threatened to ;eave him several times he retortec: ‘You can go to New York or hell, just as you choose.’ ‘‘But I have no ill feeling against hin.

Post-Dispatch Circulation Last Sunday: 362,730 , Equaled Only by FOUR SUNDAY Newspapers in the UNITED STATES = — : ' ——3 LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE St. Louis Needs a Parkway. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have been visiting in St. Louis for some time and am surprised at the opposition to the parkway. Of all cities in the United States, St. Louis needs one most—being an inland city—which has not lakes, ocean, mountains, or watering places near by, it must have some attraction and such an at- traction would help St. Louis greatly. I had the opinion St. Louis was a rich city. What would $10,000,000 be to provide such a great enterprise and do away with such an unsightly strip of property. Your city should also beautify the river front with miles of drives and have grand boulevards on the river. It is time your people would wake up, if you want a million population, and what is more, keep them. Let everybody work for the parkway, which will give St. Louis a new lease of life, and she will be more respected by other cities for her progressiveness. MRS. ALMA GLENN. eee Fairground Swimming Pool. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch Reading a suggestion in your paper by J. C. Meyers, of the United States Volunteer Life Saving Corps, in regards to having a quick drainage and refilling system at the Fairgound swimming pool, I wish to state a few more good changes. There should be a continuous flow of water from a six-inch or larger pipe to drain off the foul matter from the surface. A shower bath after a swim is the best preven- tion of contagious disease. A hood or shade over the electric lights would give the life guards and spectators a better view. FRED HENNEFELD, Captain Central R. C. Life Saving Corps. River Front Improvement. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In carefully looking over the different features brought out in the “Future St. Louis Exhibit” of the Municipal Plan Commission, there seems to be one most vital thing missing and that is a Gefinite, concise, practical plan for the improve- ment of the river front. The Plan Commission's treaties on the river front improvement consists of nothing more than vague generalities and, with no definite plan for immediate action, it is clear that another year is to be wasted in tem- porizing. Tt seems that the engineering problems in- volved in the river front improvement, especially that part between the Municipal and Fads Bridge, are tcoo much for the local engineers and archi- tects, Otherwise fixed plans would have been evolved witHin the past 10 years. The majority of the difficulties, however, are, in fact, trivial and there is absolutely no obstacle that is un- surmountable; in fact, the basic improvements that should be made at once are not only re- markably simple but what is equally important, they are low in cost. In order to stimulate interest river front improvement to an issue at once, I would respectfully suggest a competitive prize, sufficiently large to enlist the interest of the best engineering and architectural minds on the subject, for the best plans and suggestions for an immediate river front improvement, The points that govern the contest should be. # 1. Practicablility. 2. Economy. 3. Adaptability of plan to Increase traffic, both passenger and freight. 4. Making an eesy access to the wharves to vehicle traffic and pedestrians. 5. Beauty. The funds necessary to carry out the competition could probably be obtained through co-operation at the different improvement associations and public-spirited organizations of the city. The competition should be open to all. There is absolutely not a single valid reason that can be proposed why the river front, near the Bads Bridge, should continue to remain an evesore and a discrace to St. Louis. IT have such an absolvte confidence in the hustle. public s>irit and bigness of this city that right now its citi- tens are going to get busy on this all-important feature. The wharf construction can be accomplished by the unit eysétem, that is, the construction can be gradual, one block or two blocks to be improved at a time and each biock consisting of a har- monious writ that can become a consonant part or the ent improvement when all the units have been fompleted and joined.

ABOUT THE FARMER’S BIBLE. Nine hundred and fifty pounds of Sears & Roe- buck catalogs arrived at the Brunswick postoffice Tuesday morning for the distribution among the farmers and others of this community. Although a dollar spent with Sears & Roebuck never gets back on this side of the Mississippi River; although their goods msy not be as good as could be bought right here at home for the same money, there’s one thing Sears & Roebuck know,——they know the way to get business is to go after it with advertising—hence the thousands upon thousands of dollars they spend in printing these immense catalogs and mailing them to every town in the United States. Yes, they know it pays to advertise.—Missouri Brunswicker. Mrs. Homebody (who has been reading how some- one committed embezzlement by bailee): Is this some special way of getting into the penitentiary? Mr. Homebody: No, I think not. The difference. judging by the sentence in this case, ig that when you embezzle by bailee you go right in and turn around and come right out again. AMONG THE SODAPOPS. An eight-gallon barrel of beer was unloaded at Guthrie Saturday, which the depot agent placed in the wareroom until the owner called for it.

The first exercises consisted in raising the legs to the vertical position, of as near as they could, This was re- peated a number of times. Then the feet were put in the straps, and the exercises consisted in raising the body to the sitting posture. This was repeated a number-of times.

In substance Hedges said: “In my opinion there will be no peace Settled unti‘ one of the warring leagues ‘blows.’ I think well enough of all of them, includirg the enemy, to believe that this is some distance away. There were no peace plans discussed at the (hicago meeting.’’ of getting action on the i baseball enses involwed in the Landis suit?f’’ “I can't reply to that. I will say, however, that I have no doubt Federal League would like to see the tangle settled. We did not bring that suit. and the Federals will take the consequences, it appears.” No Deal for Browns. “Was any offer made you Browns or did you solicit onef’’ “Absolutely none, you may rely on that. And I would like to say that one of the most fdolish things printed was the story that Ban Johnson, my- self or any other American Leaguer had any conversation with Mr. Ball that in any way concerned the St. Louis National League club. It’s not our property to dispose of or to dis- cuss in any way. More than this I am not at liberty to say anything.” Montagu Lyon, attorney for the Federals, was asked about the Chicago affair, and, from the reporter’s point of view he wasa total loss. The only fact rescued came by way of a smile in response to the question: “Has the settlement of the Landis case anything to do with the Chicago meeting ¢”’ Following the smile mark: “You're getting warm, now.” Mr.-Lyons earlier in the day, over the telephone had stated that there would be no conference in Chicago today, aS all parties to the meeting of yesterday had departed for their homes. came the re- Chicago Believes Feds Agreed on spite Many Dentals the Breokfeds, William KF.

COBB’S EYE STILL THERE Brookfeds Have Five Men Bat- ting Higher Than .390, Lee Magee Among Them. averages Official Irwin The first crop of baseball are released this morning. American League Statistician Howe set them in motion, although the statistics are ‘‘unofficial.”’ The surprising number of .300 hitters shows that the hurling in all leagues is far from up to mid-season standard. Sixteen men are batting above the .300 limit in American, and 26 each in the National and Federal Leagues. The Brookfeds have no less than five players who are batting over .390 up to last Wednesday's gaimes. Only a few of the more important fig- ures are given here, as they mean lit- tle or nothing at this time of year and are interesting solely on account of gro- tesque absurdity of some of the re- versals. , th: ee National League.

Varsity Eleven, but Who Is Now Considered the Ablest Football Leader of the West, Will Talk of Illinois’ Prospects Here. E have today, the world’s champion “scrub,” Robert Zuppke of Champaign, ill. and Chicago. Lest some readers take this to heart, as hurling an unkind epithet at Mr. Zuppke, it may be ex- plained that the dictionary definition of the word “scrub” is all wrong, from a football viewpoint. The Standard Dictionary defines the term as follows: SCRUB—~—A Small, ferior, worthless being. But the football definition of the much-abused word would read about as follows: SCRUB—A game, generous, su-.. perior, self-sacrificing, all-right per- son, who makes glory for others pos- sible without getting any hiroself. That's the stock Zuppke comes of. It’s the spirit responsible for the fact that today he’s esteemed the great- est coach in the West, although he himself never was able to play well enough to make his alma mater Varsity team. Was Four Years a Scrub. UPPKE played with the Oak Park High School and then one year with a normal school eleven, after which he played four years with the Wisconsin scrubs. Think of it, boys! Four years of battering, suffered while trving to show up a play at the expense of men better than yourself, and ee for the glory of the other fel- Ow. A hand-shake behind the scenes. where the spotlight never flares, is the only reward the scrub gets. But say, Bo. It's SOME hand- shake. Zuppke graduated in that kind of a course and it made him a student, a philosopher and a_ title-winning coach. Doesn't that make him a world’s champion scrub? ZuppKe's business in St. Touis is to attend the annual dinner and reunion of the Illinois University with us mean, in- Ee das XK A f= - ROBERT ZUPPKE. Alumni, at the Hotel Jefferson, to- night. What he has to tell about football and the prospects of another championship team at Champaign, next fall, ought to be interesting. Zuppke’'s first experience as a coach came as leader of the Oak ~ark High School eleven, where he remained for three years. His team defeated the Everett High of Bos- ton for the U. S._ interscholastic championship, in 1912. It was his record made with this team that led to his selection as head_of the Illi- nois eleven. in almost every city of the country. For returns on the amount invested it has any of these piking bucKet- shop or E. J. Arnold systems looking like a short sport’s graft. For a printer’s bill of $5 or less any industrious mingler, with a per- suasive voice, can make $433.50 a week, or $13,000 during the season, if he’s not caught at it. Here’s the scheme that both the producer and the consumer are eating up—it’s no novelty at that: Have printed a card containing the names of the 24 major league clubs. Opposite each name squares arranged, in which are to be kept the number of runs scored by each club, each day in the week. Purchase one. perforating punch, Punch combinations of three clubs on each card, no two com- binations alike. Peddle the combinations at A quarter each, the card totaling the high number of runs to win have first money. Offer four prizes as follows: $25, $15, $10, $5, for first, second, third and fourth: offer $25.40 per day for the high daily total score, risking in all 872.50. Deduct this from the receipts from sales of the chances and you will fing that it leaves the profit above mentioned. Some Honduras effect, eh Bo? Old Man Dope to the Rescue.

Some smart gazabo, with his eyes open, out asked Dope how many combinations of three could be made out of 24 objects—which put the old scout on the arithmetic hummer until he was salvaged by a friendly pro- fessor, who siipped him the formula for computing combinations. With this Dope found that 2024 combinations of three are pos- sible with 24 objects. Thus, the get-it-quick boys get just that many quarters from the sale of the combination cards. Sometimes they offer greater prizes; but the grand total isn’t more than $219 a week in the most liberal emporium in the city. .

CARDS’ PITCHING WEAK Old Ones Have Not Rounded to, While Willie Doak Is Not Yet at His Best. By W, J. O’Connor. Aside from Tommy Long, there wasn’t much to yesterday's game at Robison Field, unless it was the Cubs, who won, &s—~4. Hug, nursing a lame arm, sent Butler to second base and then relied upon Dick Niehaus to pitch his way to victory. Ricardo fell down, with the proverbial dull thud, getting all the worst of it in the first frame, when Good tripled and Fisher filched a home run under the gate in deep left field. Niehaus retired in six inning and Gri- ner came on, and so did the Cubs, who picked up a run here and there until they had eight. Viewed from any angle, was Long's batting that stood our. Thomaso hit his stride in the third inning, when he pumped a single to left with the bases filled. scoring Snyder and Butler. He fanned the next time up, but injected another single into the box score in the seventh. His final con- tribution was a two-bagger in the ninth, a hit that put Bescher in a position to score the fourth run on Miller's sacri- fice fly. ; Bescher and Long Hitting. Long is meeting the ball solidly and his hits have the ring of true major- league clouts. He was paced in his work yesterday by Mr. Bescher, who made off with three singles and a walk out of four times up, a healthy average for one day. Indeed, Manager Huggins can rest easy if these men maintain the pace they have lately acquired. Just now Wilson and Miller are a little off their stride but they will right themselves soon and give the wabbly pitching a much needed prop. Zinn Beck has been doing his share with the stick while Daringer confines himself entirely to de- fensive play. Poor pitching now is the bete noir of Hug’s existence. Sallee and Perdue, who are aging, figure to start late, while Doak hasn't been quite himself. When Lumbago Bill is right he ‘s just wiat he proved himself last season-—the best lit- tle right-hander in the National league Alexander excepted. But Doak is slow as is Griner, who was knocked awry in three Innings, yesterday. Robinson seems almost a total loss. while Mea- dows is absolutely as good as a fresh man in the varsity classification of baseball could expect to be. Cards Find Batting Eyes. In the late Cincinnat! series, which re- sulted in four successive defeats for the Cards, Hug's men couldn't hit a, lick. Thev have overcome that weakness now and are beginning to show a little life on the sacks. All is needed at this is a good game from Doak and another from Griner. Then all hands will round to and the inerry pennant chase will be on. At that the Cards aren't doing much worse than the Giants or Braves, both of whom are nestling™in second division. though, it Niehaus was savagely handied from the start. Good hit the first bal! in the open- ing epoch. while Fischer took only one. The result was a triple and a home run, which ts calculated to unetends the nerves of even a lion-hearted blond like Richard, control in the third after down Fisher singled and Schulte doubled. Zim'’s walk filled the bases. Then Sailer paraded, forcing home Fisher. while Miller made a two- base error on Williams, and Schulte and Zim counted. Niehaus lost he had two hands Two were out again in the fifth whe the Cubs counted Schulte walked an Zim singled. putting Wildfire on third. The double-steal went through when But- ler bungled Snyder's throw. In the next inning Bresnahan showed . to block the double steal. for Roche. was on first third. Bresnahan through to Phelan Betze!, ending the round before Daringer got home. : and Daringer on The crow4 was a fairiv good one—about 3500, all intensely interested. It seems that the Cards have a more nolsy follow- ing thie vear than the Browns, although the presence of Roger Bresnahan may have something to do with the amount of shouting the past two days. The fans and Roger rioted again yesterday. but the laugh was on the patrons this time. For the third game with the Cubs today. ug probably will send Perdue to the hurling hill.

Come and live with me, I said to the bird, Sing not to the woods alone, Come build your nest in my hawthorn bush, And make my heart ycur home. I love the woods, said the wild bir, And the temples built for me, I love to hear the rhythmic song, Of the brooks as they go to the sea. I love to swing in the great tall pines, When their limbs are bare to the bone, For I know that God is listening, Though I'm singing all alone. The leaves, she said, are curtain green, And my door is never latched, The moon is my silent watchman And with stars my roof is thatched. my So the bird flew away to the lonely woods, But her charm did not depart; I lost the plume she flung to me, But her song is in my heart. From “A Book of Common Verse," by Albert L. Berry. (Post Print Shop, Chi- cago.) CONQUERING AMERICA. T is the fashion, in literary circlea, since the Great War, to conquer America in ‘Battle of Dorking’’ Style, brought up to date, of course. with modern weapons and embellishe4 with horrors such as were undreamed of in Napoleon's days. Cleveland Moffett, for instance, in Mc- Clure’s Magazine, is giving us a fine forecast of America conquered by the Germans. And J. U. Giesy, whose book is published by the MacAulay Co. of New York, gives us a somewhat simi- lar forecast in “All For His Country,” in which the invaders are Japanese. Both stories are made in the highest degree plausible. Moffett tells how the Panama Canal is crippled and the U. 8. fleet bottled up in the Pacific while a German fleet attacks New York and lands an army. Prophet Giesy does not bother with the canal, but pictures the Japs suddenly capturing San Fran- cisco and the other Pacific Coast cities by a clever ruse, effected in the same manner at the various points attacked. The wreck of New York with its ac- companying slaughter of thousands of citizens, is strikingly similar in both stories. Moffett uses Germany as the aggressor, but leaves it to the reader to substitute any strong nation which he may imagine has designs on this country. In Giesy’s romance, the American Government is manned by leaders whose names are a thin disguise for those of the present Wilson administration, Bryan, under the name Ryan, being a peace advocate, refusing to become alarmed until it is proven that the worst has happened. There is also a clever picture of a big politiclan who persistently hampers all preparations for defense unless his clique can reap a financial harvest from the nation’s sufferings. The war surprise of the German mon- ster siege guns is used to point the warning that, in addition to our unpre- paredness against ordinary war meth- ods, we might be temporarily paralyzed, as was Belgium, with some frightfu! new weapon sprung on us by an invad- ing force. All of which makes good reading these days. The ‘Battle of Dorking’ did not come off as its author pictured, but the European war is worse than anything he then conceived. We re- fuse to be alarmed, and in some ways these prophetically worded war ro- mances are even a little amusing. But the unexpected does happen. And our national leaders will do well not to feel that we are immune to attack. The conquest of America might be impos- sible, but untold damage to American interests and terrible loss of American life is quite conceivable, if we continue to live in a fool's paradise. TALES OF THE ORIENT, ALES of the real Orient permeat- + ed with incense and malaria are told by James Francis Dwyer in «a collection of short storfes, under the title of ‘Breath of the Jungle.” There are about a dozen narratives, most of them told by a German naturalist in Borneo. The stories are all incredible, but the author takes pains to impress you with the fact that anything can hap- pen after you are once on the other side of Bab-El-Mandeb. One of the sto- ries, ‘““‘The Three Who Fled,” is a real masterplece. The other tales are all well told and absorbing in interest, though unconvincing to the practical mind of the Occident. (A. C.

At least ‘ you were saying what was the use to worry about worry,” said Mr. Jarr, as he settled himself to read how the ball teams were coming along. “I've been thinking about what you sald, and I've come to the conclusion you are right.” | “YT only know worrying brings wrin- kles, especially if one is thin,” replied Mrs. Jarr. “Yet Shakspeare said ‘Fat Is Fatal to Youth and Beauty.’”’ “Why, no, I do not remember it as being among Mr. Shakspeare’s justly celebrated quotations,” replied Mr. Jarr. “But we were not talking about fat. We were talking about worrying.” “Yes, I know,” said Mrs. Jarr. “But if you worry you don’t get fat, and yet if you worry to keep thin you get wrinkles.” “Oh, I don’t know about worrying @nd keeping thin,’’ mused Mr. Jarr, ha'f co himself. “That’s another one of those fallacies concerning fat people. I know some fat people who are the greatest of fretters. Then, it is popu- larly supposed that fat people are good hearted and lovable.
