RICHMOND, Mo., May 8. N interesting example of the beneficial A effect on public revenues of the simple application of the criminal laws of the State of Missouri to wealthy and influential tax-dodgers is found in the recent records of the Circuit Court here. By merely confblying with his oath of office ) and directing every grand jury summoned in, his court to inquire into tax dodging, Judge ( Frank P. Divelbiss of Richmond, Mo., , Judge of / Courts of Ray, Carroll “and Clay Counties, has caused the indictment of 50 in- fiuential citizens on charges of perjury and has increased the assessed valuation of property in the three counties more than $5,000,000. Ray, Carroll and Clay Counties are old Demo- cratic counties. The land is fertile and the resi- dents are prosperous. The principal towns have many “gentlemen” farmers who live without work and only occasionally visit their productive acres. The banks have large deposits. The Republicans do not go to the trouble of nominating a candidate for Judge of the Circuit, which is composed of the three counties, and the Democrat who is successful in the primary is | certain of election. Divelbiss, a Richmond lawyer, was a candi- date for the Democratic nomination in 1912. At the same time the single tax constitutional nendment was creating much excitement over € State. ‘The farmers were almost unanimous sig their opposition to the single tax and in Divelbiss’ district, as in many other portions of the State,a single tax advocate was in really physical danger. ‘Aroused by a Single Taxer. IVELBISS was speaking at a meeting in a Small community in Clay County one | night when a single taxer arose in the; jurors, and soon the emissary returned with a audience and asked permission to speak. Every candidate for judicial office had to oppose single tax or accept defeat and Divelbiss had spoken iv opposition to it. When the single taxer arose, some of the crowd wanted to throw him out, but Divelbiss urged that he be heard. Divelbiss told the audience that the best way to stop the single tax move- ment was to show how fvoolish it was. The stranger Was permitted to speak. Among other things he said was: “Personal property is not assessed now. estate is paying all the taxes.” Divelbtss denied the accuracy of the statement Real turn: 6b all personal property. “Certainly the law is on the books,” replied th@ singlé taxer, “but nobody pays any attention te it.

The first grand jury in his court was in Richmond, Ray County, in January, 1913. Followed Law as He Found It. T greater part of his charge to the grand If I'm elee ted | “jury related to Section 11,351 of the Re- vised Statutes of Missouri. That is the ‘| prescribing the oath which every person Must make to his tax return, and requiring that évery Circuit Judge shall instruct every grand jury to investigate-the accuracy of tax returns. “The law does not say that a Circuit Judge MAY so instruct, it says he SHALL so instruct the grand jury,” Judge Divelbiss told the jurors.

He had a lot more to say. He told the grand jury that perjury in a tax return was } about the worst kind of perjury, and he made plain to the jurors that they were officers of the court, that they had taken an oath, and that under their oath they could hot honestly con- siger whether the person investigated was a per- » sonal friend, a personal enemy or perhaps even : a relative. ‘ur had retiicd avd tha Juds> h ‘oom afite tae fu _d@ Bud Jett the court room, several of his most in- ‘friends and political supporters hunted 3 PASE MERE ose and called attention to the law requiring a re- “Now,.you are instructed to examine the = ST.

But, just exactly the kind of instructions I delivered. I can't see that I could do anything else.” Grand Jury Sidesteps Issue. HE Ray County Grand Jury had been in T session more than two weeks when one of the Judge’s friends conveyed to him the information that it was not going to investi- gate tax dodging, and would be glad to evade the issue, but didn’t know just how the Judge would take it. “The grand jurors took aa oath, and I ex- plained to them their duty,” replied Judge Divel- biss. means ‘to see that he does do it.” This was not very reassuring to the worried proposition that the grand jury recommend the appointment of an expert accountant to make the investigation, and withhold indictments until his report was ready. “I saw that I could not expect much from that grand jury,” Judge patch reporter Friday, “and I knew there were sevcral members of the body who would have to indict themselves if they obeyed my instruc- tiofts, so I agreed to the proposition, and dis- charged the grand jury.” The expert accountant, by cémparing the tax returns of many citizens with the mortgage rec- ords in the Recorder’s office, found that there were many thousands of dollars in notes which had not been returned for taxation. He also reported that some of the most wealthy citizens apparently were mighty short of cash. His re- port was presented to another grand jury which Judge Divelbiss summoned in August, 1913. This grand jury returned 15 indictments for perjury in the making of false tax returns. Two of those indicted had been members of the former grand jury, which sidestepped the issue. An- other was vice president of the Law and Order League of the county, which devoted its atten- tion to prosecuting violations of the liquor laws. Another was vice president of one of the larger, ‘ banks of Richmond and an elder in a leading church. Another was a wealthy jeweler, and another was president of a bank in Hardin, a small town in Ray County. The others were wealthy farmers and money lenders. Middle Ground Fine of $200. HE 15 indicted men consulted attorneys and frantically opened negotiations with the Judge. Most of them expressed a willing- ness to do anything or pay anything which would save them from going to the penitentiary. The Judge consented to permit them to plead guilty to failing to make a tax return, which is a misde- meanor. For this the law permitted him to assess bs fine of not less than $10 nor more than $1000. “| didn’t want to make a farce of it,” he said to the reporter, “and on the other hand, as the custom was so widespread and had existed for so long, I didn’t want to be unnecessarily hard, so I decided a fine of $200 in each case would be about right.” Fourteen of the 15 paid $200 each and thus $2800 was added to the school fund of the county. In August, 1914, another grand jury in Ray County indicted 17. Each paid a fine of $200. A Carroll County grand jury, in April 1913, rec- ommended an expert, and another grand jury in January, 1914, indicted five for perjury. Each paid the customary $200 fine. In January, 1915, an- other grand jury indicted one, but he was one of ‘those who had been irdieted and had naid a yree ome a year Ubc’uot:.

That plan having failed, he tried another in 1914. He wrote a check for his bank account, which was in excess of $40,000, and sent it to St. Louis for deposit in a bank. “ When the grand jury failed to find any money in a Carrollton bank to his credit, it reported to Judge Divelbiss that the man had nothing more than he had returned to the Assessor.

He was always careful only to insinuate—in the form of Cypetione--hever” to state anything that would reflect upon me.’ Mrs. Burkham, who was in and out of the room all the time, at this juncture remarked, “I think something should be done to him for placing upon the witness stand such witnesses as that Meyer and that-Mrs. Blair.” “The idea of their attempting to introduce the picture of a woman who I believe doesgr't exist and never did exist so far as they know,’ said Mrs. Campbell. Her voice is clear as a bell and. evenly modulated and when she betrays indigna- tion she is inclined to lower it to a whisper rather than raise it. “Why,” she said, in this low tone so near to impatience and as far from the verge of tears as she got, “if I didn’t know my husband so well end far better than they, I should be the one to be aroused to suspicion by these stories.” Defended Birthright as a Trust From God ONTINUING her narrative she said: C “After Willards death I was just re covering my health, when the greatest and best man in the world was taken from mé, Then this horrible trial.

Wo the Walter of the Post-Dispatch. In view of the constant recitation of the story of the violation of Belgian neutrality, it will per- haps be of interest to a large number of the read- eré of the Post-Dispatch to follow in brief review the march of events that finally led up to the neu- tralization of Belgium. First mention of Belgium was made in Caesar's *Bell™@m Golliicum.” At that time Belgium was peatt of Gaul. In the course of the following cen- turies it changed hands a number of times, be- longing alternately to Austria, Spain and France. After the fall of Napoleon, the Belgians, without being Consulted, were placed under the rulership of Holland. This was done through the efforts of British statesmen with a view of setting up a barrier against the power of France. This ar- rangement, however, did not prove satisfactory, for a“ national congress of Belgians convened in Brwe@els, which declared their indepenijdence of Holland. Holland replied by declaring, war and defeating the Belgians. Then followed a period of unrest until finally in 1839 a treaty was im- posed upon Belgium by the Powers, which made an independent and “perpetually neu- tral state.” England manipulated the scheme, whereby unwilling Belgium was made a neutral state, because according to “Queen Victoria’s Let- tera,” Vol. III, page 218, “Belgium was declared a newtfdl state in order to make it impossible for Frahoée"'to annex the country. The Belgians did not themselves desire to have their country made neutral or put under the protection ... of the Powers.” Thus it will be seen, that the Powers consulted only’ their own interest, that they were not in- spired by some noble, altruistic resolve, but that each was afraid the other might grab it, so it was Bsreed. thet none should have it.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, SUNDA¥ MORNING, MAY 9, 1915. ‘ THE LUSITANIA ISSUE. The ocean of passion is a more dangerous one on which to embark than a war-infested Atlantic. While horror, grief, sympathy, anger and regret rock the emotions of the nation over the fate of American'men and women aboard the torpedoed Lusitania, ccol heads must reign in high places, and dispassionate judgment decide issues intimate- ly related to war. “It is a bad time to get rattled,” as Senator Stone says. “Let us maintain our equilibrium and not ‘rock the boat’ until’ we find out what we are about.” The loss of one American life may involve the same principle or the Same violation of rights as the loss of 137—may involve our relations with a foreign Government to the same extent, though’ unattended by the same embarrassments of grief and public resentment. It is when feelings are outraged rather than when international law is outraged that the most acute difficulties are pre- sented. We cannot decide the Lusitania case on horror, grief or passion, but we must decide it upon the inquiry of reason. Senator Stone declares that it must‘not be for- gotten that our lost fellow countrymen went aboard a belligerent ship with full knowledge of the risk and after official warning by the German Government. Says he: ‘When on board a British vessel they were on British soil. Were they in a position sub- stantially equivalent to being Inthe walls of a fortified city? If American -citizens stay within a city besieged or threatened and the enemy attacks, What should our Government do if our citizens should be injured? It is for the American Government to decide in the light of all the facts whether the innocent bystanders, so to speak, were in a position giving us a right to complain, or were bystanders who crowded too close to a fray sensible of its dangers. Sympathize how we may, it must be asked, were they deliberately courting danger? It has been a principle recognized by this re- public since Thomas Jefferson laid it down—that a reckless citizen has no right to place himself voluntarily and deliberately in a position of peril which shall involve his Government and imperil the peace of the millions at home. Without reference to issues of fact or rights or principles of international law, but from the standpoint of broad humanity the world over, the ruthless sinking of a great boat bearing citizens Ot peace on peaceful errands—and many women and infants—must excite the profoundest sorrow and resentment. It is an incident of the wanton- ness of war that will be borne long in the whole world’s memory. Yet every patriotic American who is not passion-swayed beyond his power to think—and there is a class of mollycoddles among the jingoes that is carried off its feet in every crux with other nations—every thinking patriot, we re- ministration in seeking first the full facts before demanding justice. And the highest love of coun- try comports with the hope of a peaceful solution. ss a re COMMON SENSE CATTLE QUARANTINES. A herd of pedigreed cattle near Chicago, said to be valued at $4,000,000, was quarantined and treated for the disease when attacked by the foot and mouth-epidemic. Its entire recovery is now reported at a cost for care and treatment that is only a neglible percentage of the total value of the herd. The usual course heretofore has been’ to kill cattle as soon as they betrayed symptoms of the plague. Common sense is thus introduced, though be- latedly, into methods of combatting this disease, two outbreaks of which in six years have cost cattle owners and state and national governments many millions of dollars. Preventing the spread of the disease by slaughtering is wasteful. The animals of even ordinary breed must be of very inferior quality, if it will not be cheaper to isolate and cure them than to incur total loss by killing them. - = = a a A CHICAGO AS A SUMMER RESORT.

It te an added touch of unconscious irony that some of the men responsible for that senseless industrial war are loudest in condemning E»- rope’s equally cruel and needless international war. = = * — A PAGAN AT EARLY MASS. Whether or not one’s faith foresees continuing personal identity after what men know as death, one may not without spiritual loss surrender his belief in the natural goodness of humanity. This belief we must cherish, lest we forfeit the finest elements of the life we now possess, Christian, pantheist or pagan, all need now and again to renew at the altar of man’s highest hope the race’s vision of nobler living, be it now or hereafter. So one sees, from time to time, strangers, ob- viously from their detached or hesitant manner adherents to no creed, enter the old cathedral near the river at early morning, each in his own mood sitting through the reading of the mass. The strangers find there an oasis of silence, - of solemnity, of devotion. They see the lonely, the lame, the poor and the sorrowful participate in the service, and they see these humble folk de- part with reverent bearing from the house in which they have found solace and with it strength to sustain another day life’s fardels and its dis- appointments. They see the rising sun’s bright rays flow down like golden water from top to bottom of one and then another of the eastern windows of the venerable temple. And they, too, depart the richer for having come; they have witnessed the consoling faith of the losers in this day’s strife that in another place and period better fortunes wait; they have seen how large a factor in this faith is the stout human courage by which its possessors bear adversity here and now. Life’s finer issues are touched with new sig- nificance in their wondering minds; illusive val- ues vanish: the mighty verities of time and space flow into dusty chambers of the brain long locked against them by the keys of habit and of worldly pride. = = — oe OUR PLACE IN THE SHADE. “Life” calls attention to a discourse on Jap- anese aims contributed to the Times gt a Mr. K. K. Kawakami, in which this Japariese gentle- man observes: Japan must have a place in the sum. Seeing how warm it has been made for the original clamorer for solar space, we are sur- prised that anybody else wants any. By contrast how grateful is the cool and peaceful shade we occupy—whence we remark to the nations over in the white heat and glare, “Is it hot enough for you?” + &. 4 — a A VAINGLORIOUS BRITISH SKIPPER. “T have been hunting for a submarine ever since this war began,” said Capt. John Black of the Brit- ish merchant ship Transylvania as she sailed from New York for Liverpool, just after the news of the Lusitania horror had been received. “I only hope I see one on this trip and that she comes close enough for me to ram her.” Is this attitude typical of the officers of British commerce ships generally? If so, it may explain why increasing numbers of those ships are falling victims to submarines. The Transylvania sailed with: 879 passengers aboard besides a crew of noncombatants number- ing several hundred. A man to whom the safety of so many peaceful travelers, including presump- tively many women and children, is entrusted, has no business to indulge in cheap heroics. His ship is an eggshell compared with modern submarines, armed with high explosives. His most anxious so- licitude should be to avoid a submarine, and, if one is encountered, to escape its attack, not to offer a resistance doomed to be ineffectual.

Lusitania Horror Arcuses Indignation A CRIME AGAINST CIVILIZATION. New York World: The circumstances and the consequences ‘of the destruction of the Lusitania by a German submarine call for all the self-re- straint and self-possession that the American peo- a wor) ple can command. Maretewthe sinking of the Lusitania was no sinking of the Falaba. { passenger ship carrying neutrals and noncombatants was destroyed by a German submarine, and hundreds of helpless men, women and children left to survive or drown, as luck de- creed. The destruction of the Lusitania makes a more dramatic appeal to the human imagination _ than did the destruction of the Falaba, but both were crimes against civilization in equal degree. How many American lives have been snuffed out in the loss of the Lusitania we do not yet _ @@know. But it is no fault of the German Govern- we . ment that anybody escaped from either ship. It is no fault“of the German Government that every American on board the Lusitania is not lying at the bottom of the sea. * * * What Germany expects to gain by her policy is something we cannot guess. What advantage will it be to her to be left without a friend or a well-wisher in the world? The war cannot last forever. Peace will eventually come, if only through exhaustion. What will be the attitude of the other nations toward Germany when the con- flict is finished? How many decades must pass before Germany can live down the criminal record that she is writing for herself in the annals of history? ‘ WE DON’T FORGET THE MAINE. New York Tribune: No voice will be raised. no effort will be made, to force the hand, to hasten the action of the President of the United States. But neither he nor any other official in our Government can mistake the temper in which their fellow citizens will wait. They will wait with the casualty list in their hands. Americans, American women and children, have been exposed to death by German submarines. They will | : \ pletest possible reparation and no reparation can “‘) wait, fortified each day and each hour by new evi- | .@ence and fresh details of the manner in which § ‘ \ ~~ ee * ye 8! on destroy this particular ship is too conclusive to be ignored. We have learned much about Germany since the war began, much that has shocked the world’s sense of bumanity, but this frightful deed was held i © wilin the domain of the incredible until it was perpetrated. It transcend in atrocity any- thing our Government could have apprehended ai the time it issued its warning. WILL IT AID GERMANY? New York Press: Aside and apart from tlre question of the legal rights of the Von Tirpitz Ad- miralty to destroy the Lusitania or any British vessel that is hauled down but cannot be carried off as a prize, it is well worth considering wheth- er such a shock to the world as well as provoca- tion to the allies will in the end work more to the advantage of the Germans or their foes. Then there is the very probable effect upon Italy. them. CLIMAX OF MURDER POLICY. thicago Journal: The sinking of the Lusitani: is not war. It is sheer,’ unmitigated piracy for which there can be ncither excuse nor ®xtuitua- tion. It is the culmination of a policy of iur- der deliberately proclaimed and consistently prac- ticed. The notion which seems to prevail in Germans that war in Europe automatically confines Amer- icans to their own shores or makes them fair. game if they venture on the high seas will find neither countenance nor toleration here. President Wilson gave fair warning that the United States will hold Germany to a strict ac- countability for any loss of American life due to the Kaiser's submarine campaign. The time for enforcing that strict accountability has arrived. There should be no delay in demanding the com- 'be complete that does not include guaranties }against other such murders in the future.

Even if the Chinese Government should | reject the Japanese ultimatum, and Japan should | enforce it with her army, China would not make | any serious resistance, because she could not. | There would be an attempt to defend the capital, but it would not amount to much.

WITHOUT EXCUSE. : New York World: If the Guiflight was not torpedoed and sunk deliberately as an American ship, it must have been torpedoed and sunk in the purpose of taking a chance that it might be American lest an enemy ship falsely flying the American colors should escape. But the offend- ing is as real on the one supposition as on the other. Lives have also been lost, and by far the most serious case involving the United States under Germany’s war-zone proclamation has aris- en. There must follow a holding to ‘strict ac- countability.” “ASSASSINS OF THE SEA.” Philadelphia Inquirer: This «.neident is bringing the menace of the Assassins of the Sea right home to us. What has happened is only what the Government at Washington had antici- pated might happen when it notified the German at Berlin. There is no excitement in Mr. Wilson's admin- istration, because it knows that its ready-letter staff in the State Department can, as usual, write a “strong” note, using the third pedal of emphasis in protest against the destruction of American property and murder of Amepitan citizens, but at the same time breathing into the letter the most cordial friendliness and the frankest admiration.

As for our Government, its interests are purely commercial and sentimental.

Washington still believes that diplomacy will be equal to the task of finding a solution. CHINA HELPLESS. Philadelphia Inquirer: It is an extraordinary situation because there are no grounds whatever upon which the aggressive and dictatorial course which the Japanese are pursuing can be fusti- fied, or even excused. They do not claim, because they cannot, that they have suffered any injury at the hands of China which calls for redress, or that they possess any rights in the premises upon which they are entitled to insist.

Hazlett, 4 missionary for several years in Sotith American countries, There will be park- way meetings in many parts of the city every evening this week. Speakers who are thoroughly informed on all the de- tails of the plan will attend. Hazlett’s lecture, which will begin at 7 o'clock, is expected to be exceptional- lv interesting because it will deal with results from the actual building of just’ such a parkway as is proposed for &t. Louis. His subject will be ‘‘Missionary Work in Brazil.”’ He will tell of the construction’ of the Avenue Rio Branco and the Beira do Mar in Rio Janeiro. The former cost $7,000,000 and the latter, eight miles long, cost $11,000,000. Hazlett says they have helped to make Rio de Janeiro one of tlie most healthful and beautiful cities in the world. According to Hazlett’s statement, these magnificent avenues in the South American city did what the parkway sdvocates say the central parkway will do for St. Louis. | ' Parkway Benefits at Rie de Janeiro. He says that in Rio de Janeiro the parkways abolished slum districts, increased property values for several blocks in each direction, proved an efficient fireguard and. rejuvinated a blighted business district. Before the Avenue Rio Branco was con- structed it was necessary for the city to condemn and tear down all build- ings in a strip two blocks wide and nearly two miles long. He says that property ownérs there objected to the improvement, but afterward found that rentals of abutting property in- creased from 10 to 35 per cent. Beginning Monday at noon, speak- ers will be assigned to Parkway headquarters, 521 Olive street, to ex- plain to visitors the parkway model on exhibition, and to answer any questions regarding the parkway or the special election to be held June 8. The Executive Committee will meet Tuesday at 12:30 at Lippe’s restaur-. ant, and the General Committee of 1560 will meet at Lippe’s Wednesday at 12:30. Speakers at Various Meetings. Park Commissioner Nelson Cunliff will give an illustrated talk before the Jovians at the Annex Hotel] at noon Tuesday. He will have maps of the parkway and will explain the plan in detail, Lee Meriwether and Henry C.

Inder the law, all single persons with incomes of $3000 a year, OF mar- ried persons with incomes of $4000, are exempt from taxation, but they under penalty, to make a return. In 1913, the year the in- come tax law went into effect, the tax was only applicable to 10 months of the year, and returns were re- quired from single persons with in- comes during that period of $2500 and married persons with incomes of $3300.

MUSTACHE CLUB IN TROUBLE Young Women of Georgia Towns Ohb- ject to Adornment. GRAY, Ga., May 8—The young men of Gray and Bradley have formed a mustache club—that is, a club for young men who nave agreed to turn out and wear a mustache. It appears, how- ever, that it will be short lived. The president, a young attorney, has re- ceived orders from his best girl to am- putate his, and that the door will be closed to him until the orders are obeyed. The mustache is still intact, with the young man begging for time, hoping that, with a full growth, his looks will be so much improved the embargo will be raised. Other like serious situa- tions are said to be impending unless the mustaches are taken off. Your.

PUBLIC URGED TO ATTEND City Provides for Free Transpor- tation by Boat and Rail to Chain of Rocks. The new filtration plant at the Chain of Rocks, which cost $1,350,000 and has been 20 months in building and which Water Department officials say is the largest in the world, will be dedicated and formally opened next Saturday afternoon. A large attendance is ex- rected at the dedicatory ceremonies. and transportation arrangements have been made by steamboats, steam and electric cars. Visitors will incidentally see Water- works Park, which is in point of loca- tion the most beautiful in St. Louis, and which is now at the height of its attractiveness. Bilis announcing the event. and printed in a style similar to amusemént posters, are being displaved along all the car lines. These bills urge citizens to show their civic pride in the work, and feature the announcement that Mavor Kiel and Water Commissioner Wall will make speeches. The full program, given out yesterday, includes also the names of Mrs. W. R. Chivvis. rresident of the Missouri Federation of Women’s Clubs; James A. Hooke. Di- rector of Public Utilities: and Howard 3. Shaw of the State Public Service Commission, as speakers. _Various Transportation Means. Three steamvoats will carry city of- ficials, member of civic &nd business Organizations, and other invited guests, te the Chain of Rocks, and will head a parade of motor boats and other river craft. The Erastus Wells, the city har- bor boat, will lead the line, and the Grey Eagle and Spread Eagle, char- tered by the city for the day, will fol- low. Tickets for passage on the Grey and Spread Eagle will be issued by the rersone representing tie different or- ganizations in the Mayor's advisory council of 15.

Lhe automobile roeds are good, and cars will be parked and cared for. The new filtration system. whicn was worked out by the present Water Commissioner, E. F. Wall, who will place the system of clarification used since 1904, the credit for which has generally been assigned to John R. Wixford. Beforé 1904, the World’s Fair year, the muddy water of St. Louis was a common reproach on the part of visitors. The change was ef- fected almost over night, and the method of purification then adopted, with iron and lime coagulants, has since kept the water clear most of the time. But at certain seasons, particularly in the fall, a stain has appeared, which has been attributed to decaying vegetation. Method to Be Explained. In November, 1912, Commissioner Wall made a report stating that the existing system should be extended to a capacity of 150,000,000 gallons a day, or that rapid sand filters, to supply 160,000,000 gallons ae day, should be installed. He recommend- ed the latter plan, and it was ap- proved by the Board of Public Im- provements. The method of filtration, which will be shown and exlained to vis- itors, includes the use of sulphate of alumina, to remove the color from the water, hypochlorite of lime and sulphate of iron, to settle the sedi- ment in the water; and liquid chlor- ine, to sterilize, and free it of dis- ease germs. The sterilization proc- ess will be used only when the anal- ysis of the water, to be made daily, indicates that it is necessary. The mixing channels and the grit cham- ber will be the mechanical features process and will reduce the chemicals required. of the amount of ————- RUM AND TOBACCO NEVER HURT HIM, SAYS MAN 97 Takes Big Drink of Brandy and Smokes Two Pipes ~efore Break- fast, He Says.

Sach paying taxes there would need be no worry about the cost of the new cen- tra] parkway, or ahy other improve- ment the city might desire, and it would not be necessary for the Gov- ernor of Missouri to cut off with in- sufficient funds the educational and eleemosynary institutions, as he hada to do this year. Judge Divelbiss, the man, is a serious sort of a fellow. He is con- servative, sane and entirely normal. He read the sections of. the statute defining his duties as Circuit Judge and he didn't see anything to do ex- cept to do what the statutes told him. He is not a reformer with grand- standing methods, but, on®the other hand. he has not hesitated to main- tain his position in any matter he has undertaken. Soon after he went on the benck he was informed that several young women school teachers, returning from a teachers’ convention in St. Louis, had complained of the great amount of drinking of liquor on a Wabash dining car passing through Ray County. Ray County is “dry” territory. When the next grand jury met, and after he had given his usual in- FINED FOR ADVISING ALL GIRLS TO BEAR BABIES Special Cable toe sh: ehh teh Peakcblennte®. LONDON, May 8—For advising every young and healthy woman of independent means, as a patriotic duty, to produce at least one healthy baby, Arthur Busch Mitchell of Som- erton, Somersetshire, an elderly and wealthy man, a leading member of the Eugenic Society and the Malthu- sian League, has been fined $650. Mitchell was arraigned on the charge of publishing and distributing certain slips of paper without the name of the printer attached. as re- quired by law. The slips contained this advice: “At this time of national emer- gency, when men are hazarding their all on land or sea, no girl of inde- pendent means, gifted with sound health and strength, should shirk the risks, respon*ibilities and od@ium of producing one well-conditioned child to the community.” On the stand Mitchell not only ac- knowledged his offense, but justified it by declaring that the tendency of the war was to produce a constantly structions about violations of the lo- cal option laws, Judge Divelbiss told the jury that they should not confine their investigations to bootleggers who sold a few botles of whiskey at a country picnic. He told them that a railroad corporation had no more right to sell liquor the county than anybody else. After Men Higher Up. “If vou find that liquor is being sold on trains,” he said, ‘‘don’t indict the negro porter or waiter. what they are told to do. Indict those who are responsible for the sale.’’ The grand jury indicted E. B. Pryor, W. K. Bixby and F. A. Delano, the re- ceivers appointed, by the Federal Court to manage the property. The warrants were sent to Sheriff Dickmann in St. Louis, A deputy, instead of placing them under arrest, merely read the warrants to them. They didn’t appear in court, and the records failed to show a return on the warrants.

He refuses to continue criminal cases to an- other term of court. “Every lawyer Knows that application for continuance in criminal cases are not filed in good faith one time out of ten,”’ the Judge said. ‘‘They are filed in the hope that witnesses will disappear, and ' only to postpone to some indefinite and: uistant time the day when the case must! be tried.” Judge Divelbiss, instead of continuing cases until the next term, which in those counties means about six months, will! continue them a week or ten days and then force the defendant to trial.

Another point she scant to clear up was with regard to the witness, Mrs. Reid.. “It was not so much that she couldn’t identify me as that I could not posi- tively remember her as one of my nurses. How I do wish,we could have found Miss Cleveland! I remember her very well indeed. Many women wrote to me insisting that they were she, but I would have known the real Miss Cleveland anywhere.”’ The inference that Mrs. Campbell was without culture or cultivated antece- dents was another that cut deep, ap- parently, and proudly she outlined a geneological chart that included § the names of Livingston, Van Rensalaer, Waddington, Van Platner and other good New York names. “I am of Hu- guenot French, Holland and English ancestry,’’ she said. “My mother was a linguist and an author,” said she. “Not a bilue- stocking, at that; but a woman fond of outdoor lift and exercise. I learned to ride and to swim and row on the Cooperstown Canal. Naturally, as I was married at the age of 16, my education was cut short, but such as it was I received at Draper Hall, which was a preparatory school to}. Vassar.’ “Though I knew Mr. Campbell's relatives did not like me and were jealous of my son,” she went on, “in the old days it never troubled me. You see, I always have sought to oc- cupy myself with the beautiful things of life. I love music and painting and have occupied a great deal of my time with art. “I taught my little girl on the piano myself until she was 8 years of age. She has a beautiful voice and I really care more for vocal than in- strumental music. “Wherever I have gone T have’ taken my sketch book and IT have hundreds of sketches made _ every- where. Money and mercenary mat- ters never have given me much thought. I had a substantial income before I met Mr. Campbell. I was always at liberty to draw upon my grandfather, who was attorney for the Hudson River Railway Co. To be sure, I lived modestly when I first came to St. Louis, as a young widow should. I had a faithful maid, who accompanied me everywhere I went. I spent some time at the convent and made few acquaintances. ‘‘When I married again it was not-for money. Mr. Campbell asked me 24 times before I consented.” The final disposition of the vast for- tune, ultimately to go to the St. Louis University, seemed a piece of busi- ness entirely outside her range of in- terests. Left Us Amply Provided For. “I never have questioned the judg- ment of it,” she said. “Mr. Campbell must have been very much impressed with the efficiency and thoroughness of the Jesuits as an educational order, and for that reason decided to be- stow his fortume there. I don't think the fact that he was a Catholic had anything to do with it, for he was not what you. would call a devout Cath- olic. tft IE it {; AMI HHH i nla bali hp if if meta it Hn !

Trying to Hide Insue, He Says. In closing the argument, Barker told the court that opposing counsel had at- tacked him to draw the attention of the court from the fact that they had no case. ‘‘They have tried to make me the issue in this case,’’ said Barker, ‘“‘but I refuse to be it.

There are two principal issues in the case. The railroads maintain that a $10,000 bond given by them when the injunction was granted, repre- sents the full measure of their lia- bility.

Hudson owners could afford excess weight and upkeep. But the spirit of the times is against it. all shippers and from seeking a remedy. “They made their own bed,” said Barker, “and they ought to have to sleep in it. They made the Attorney- General represent these individuals in the first place, but now the shoe is on the other foot.” Separate Suits Costly.

He started then to design this car, the pioneer Light Six. The first model came out in Novem- ber, 1913. It became at once the most popular class car on the market. All last summer we were thousands of cars behind orders. Even now, with trebled output, we cannot meet spring demands. Yet 30 other makers now build Light Sixes. The End of Waste The Hudson has multiplied the at- tractions of motoring. It has elimi- nated nothing but erudity and waste. A Six used to weigh 4500 pounds. It cost three times the Hudson price. Fuel and tire cost was double. Yet the Hudson seats 7 in comfort. In beauty and luxury it stands with the highest few. And there never was a sturdier car. It weighs 2870 pounds, thus saving the weight of 11 adults. A High-Grade Car This change means a higher-grade car. It means special steels—alumi- num in place of cast iron. It requires a new-type, high-speed motor, which has proved itself the best type known. It means strength without bulk. The Hudson Light Six sets a new high mark in quality, class and refine- ment. It took four years to attain it. It is a better-grade car than any heavy car ever built. 12,000 Endorsers The Hudson Light Six has proved itself for two seasons. Over 12,000 owners have driven it some 30 million miles. Not a fault has developed. That is why men are choosing Hudsons in this Light Six type. It has proved itself right. It shows you the Light Six as others may be after working out similar refinements. It will be your choice.

” ‘ z * . ' AeA SSUES ON WHICH GERMANY FIGHTS Says Growing and Active Na- tions Must Have Enough Soil and Water to Expand. OLE VELAND, O., May 8.—Dr. Bern- hard Dernburg, former Colonial Sec- retary of the German Empire and now a leading spokesman for the same nation in the United States, spoke here tonight. He pointed out that the‘present war had broken down all treaties between the respec- tive hostile nations, and also dis- rupted systems and agreements be- tween nations of the world in many important respects, including inter- national civil law. “Never has the world had such a chance,” Dr. Dern- burg declared, “to start again to erect international relations from a rock bottom basis.” For the reason stated, the speaker said at the outset of his address, he approached the questions involved on very broad lines, endeavoring to find principles which recommended them- selves by their simplicity and useful- ness to all the world, “in order that a recurrence of this general upheaval can be successfully avoided for some measurable time.” He continued, speaking in part, as follows: Two Essential Principles. ‘"These principles are, probably: ‘4. The recognition of the truth that streng nations showing great vitality and large increase are entitled to enough soll, air and water, in order to maintain and advance their growing The lack of such propet adjustment of the conditions of the Purepean powers during the last 60 years hae been one of the primary causes for unrest in Europe and one ef the principal dangers to the peace ef the world, “9. Since noe readjustment of thiskind can take. place in Europe itself, on poceunt of natienal lines, it is neces- sary to seek the solution, first, by the of all uncivilized parts of the ; that is, by a readjustment of oan possessions, then by the crea- tion ef spheres of influence and non-in- terference with nations, who are willing te talcee and concede such spheres; fur- ther, by an open door and equal oppor- tunity policy all over the globe; and, finally, the neutralization of all the seas and narrows, cables and oversea mails of the world. “This readjustment must be sanc- tioned through a simple and codified 'n- ternational law, safeguarded in a way that it cannot be broken without put- ting the infractor outside of the pale of international relationship, not only with the party attacked, but also with all the parties remaining neutral. “It seems manifest that such a pro- gram would be greatly to the interest of the United States. It would cer- tainly be to the interest of Germany, but I. wish *o show to you that it is also in the .nterest of the rest of the world, and that no great nation would be asked to give up anything which she holds by right. Challenges British Sea Domination. “Of course, the dominion of the sea claimed and held by WDngland is noth- ing but a great wrong; it has never been sanctioned by any international law and is against the governing prin- ciple that no territorial right exists outside of the three-mile limit from the shores of each country. Yet, England has fortified the sea (which is nobody's property in aprticular, but under the international law everybody’s), by a number of sea fortresses, each being a coaling station, whence British men- of-war can get supplies, oil and coal, and force her will upon the/rest of the giobe. Nobody can dgny that, even in time of peace, traffic-over-sea is car- ried on only by British tolerance and that by blocking up the arteries of trade Great Britain can force and has forced her will upon all the world. “There will be a different Asia hence- forth and instead 6f the beneficial and educational preponderance of the white race on the strength of its superior ex- perience and its conquest of nature, there will be a constant menace from these people, as a consequence of a policy that is sure to break up, at the very first opoeprtunity, the British Asiatic empire. “It must, therefore, be stipulated in any peace instrument that the use of colored troops in any struggle in which a nation of the white race is a bel- ligerent must not be permitted, and that furthermore the stipulation of Berlin and the Congo dgreement shall be re- vised and strengthened, whereby colonial possessions are considered as neutralized and must be kept so during any war in which European nations are the prin- cipals. Urges Free World's Trade. “This is not the way te keep the _, white man’s trust. No mission affecting ss wag p= Chinese Walls around ee ee ery simple to see, if at all times ; She seu the rest of the world can be conferred on Great Britain. So the dominion of the sea must be placed definitely in the hands of all the powers of the world. ‘It Is generally claimed that Great Sritain is a free-trade country, but that is not so, though Great Britain is in- deed open to all the world on equal terms. The dominions, however, are not open on equal terms; they have prefer- ential tariffs from 10 to 16 per cent in favor of their mother country, favoring British manufacturers, and as these dominions are a very large part of the Rilabe, three times as big as the United States, the British Empire is not an open door proposition, but just those countries that can absorb manufactured produce are closed to the exporting na- tions, with the exception of the mother- “It follows also that cable and mails must be neutralised so as not te be under the dictation of any power. Bi ert aiternative : this program cannot be carried “We are not to have an open sea free Intercourse, we shall have ali the countries, and: cannot rely on the im- of ie pocenaeey saw -aned~d exports, porting and self-suffiicent. If they can- not rely on getting the best goods from the cheapest markets, they must sur- round themselves with customs barriers and other devices to foster the home production of food-stuffs at high cost, the production of substitutes for the best raw-stuffs, and home consumption to the exclusion of imports. And since no na- tion can entirely subsist on that prin- ciple, they must go on to have enormous armies, and especially enormous fleets at sea, and spend the national resources in peace needlessly, for fear of a recur- rence of this war. Then all the hatred and all the jealousy, ali the uneasiness will remain. Belgium’s Fate Involved. “The decision whether there is to be a free and neutralized sea or a Chinese wall will also be decisive re- garding the fate of Belgium. If the sea remains fortified, there can be no choice for Germany except to have her own sea fortresses as well, and since the only way of getting out into the high sea would be by way of Belgium, there would be no pos- sibility of Germany's considering the return of Belgium to its former status. On the other hand, if the sea be free and neutralized. so that every craft, of whatever nation, could ply on it at any time, either in war or in peace, and if the Channel were neutral as well as the other narrows, the return of Belgium could be con- sidered, it then not being any longer of vital interest to Germany, al- theugh popular sentiment might clamor for her retention, the country having been won in war by sacri- fice of life and treasure. “I have been told that in digeus- sing peace a nation shows its weak- ness, and that such talk as mine is indicative of inner feeling that my country is beaten. “In the first place, I do not repre- sent my country; I speak simply as a private German citizens, who is a el they must become self-sup- | wellwisher of the world at large. in the second place, I have always thought it profitable to speak out my conviction without régard to what inference somebody might draw from|my doing 80. can do that so much the more freely since Ger- many so far has been entirely vic- torious, holding a very large share of the territory of the enemies, block- ing the English fleet in its harbors, and being abundantly provided with men, means and money, while her enemies are predicting her early downfall and resort to every device in dupe abroad, spection of the map showing the Ger- man lines. Lime Treatment in Tuberculosis In the May 25, 1912, issue of the Journal of the Anterican Medical As- sociation appeared this statement con- cerning calcium (lime) medication in the treatment of pulmonary tubercu- losis (consumption) : “Under the systematic, centinued and persistent regime of calcium assimila- tion, Van Gieson has seen a number of his patients improve, undergo an exuda- tion or partial censolidation in the lung, which then resolving would appear to contribute to the walling off and closing of the lesions. Hand in hand with this course of events, the sputum clears up of tubercle bacilli, which finally disap- pear, and the patients are discharged with healed pulmonary tuberculosis.” Ethical medical journals seldom speak so positively about a remedial agent, yet this testimony coincides with that from many consumptives who have se- cured like results through the use of Eckman’'s Alterative. Since calcium is a constituent of this remedy for pulmonary tuberculosis and allied throat and bronchial affections, its healing power may in some measure be attributed to the manner in which this element is so combined with other ingredients as to be ens @ assimilated by the average person and it does not irritate the stomac = Alterative narcotics or — contains Eckman Laboratory, Philadelphia.

Losses. ? The question as to what importance should be attached to City Directory @& timates of population is raised for tite Million Club and other civic societies by the appearance of Gould’s Directory for 1915, minus the usual estimate of increased numbers of citizens. Not only is the “boosting’’ calculation absent. but a sum in simple arithmetic done by the Gould rule of other years would show a falling off of 9100: During the period when the canvag~- sers were at work, in the first months. of the present year, a number of largs | industries, including several shoe fac:-. turies, were closed or were working with depleted forces. Many of the em- pioys of these concerns live outside the city limits, hence would be found by the canvassers only at their work. The zreater part of them have now returned to work, with the re-opening of the in- dustries, but their names are not in the directory. The effect of these business condi- tions, and of the general depression which has prevailed during the last few months in all American cities, is shown in a slight decrease of the number of) nages of names in‘this year’s directory, as compared with last year * There are 2183 pages in the 1915 book, and 2209 pages in last year’s directory, a falling 4ff of 26 this year. The type and the space for names on each page, are the same in the two books. Counting 149 individual names to a page, aside from the names of firms aid institutions, the decrease of 26 pages would mean 3640 fewer individual. names. Leas of 9100. The directory company has hereto- fore obtained its @stimates of tne puopu- lation of St. Louis by multiplying the “number of names by two and one-half. Ihe loss of 3440 names would therefore mean a decrease of 910 in the city’s population—assuming that che directory canvassers did their work as thoroughly 4 this year as last year. An official of the directory company told a Post-Dispatch reporter that the usual estimates and consparisons were omitted from this year’s teok because they would not show an increase in population. He preferred not to esfi- mate the decrease, but said it would be sufficient to say that the Sapa been at a standstill as a result of & erally unfavoriple business conrcitions. Yhe same condition, he said, would be found to exist in other American cities and he expressed the helief that the F.astern cities had suffered large losses in population. He said the decision to omit the usual comparisons was reached after” a con- ferérice with officials of , the. Business Met's ‘Leagne.. Edward Hidden, oresident of the league, said, when asked about the mat- ter,: that it had never come to his at- tention, and had not been brought up at any directors’ meeting attended by him. William Flewellyn Saunders, secretary of the league, is in New Mexico. In the 1914 directory, the -total num- ber of names was 341,358, and the esti- mated population of St. Louis was 853,399. Deducting 9100, it would appear that this year’s estimate, if one ‘were tmade, would be about 844,300. The 1910 census showed 687,029. The directory figures in census years have usually been higher than tha census figures, and this has been “ex- plained by the fact that the directory canvassers take the names of all per- sons employed in St. Louis, some of whom live outside the city limits. The new directory follows the order of arrangement of former volumes, an] has a bright red cover, instead of the more somber colors of recent volumes. No War, But a Peace. , Examination of the list of names shows that there is no ‘War in St. Louis, but that Peace resides at two addresses, one on Washington avenue and one on Pine street. Mars is here, however, and out on Eugenia street that is a Trench— Patrick P. There are 60 Gunns and four Krupps, and 50 persons are Schott, while 2% Schelis are scattered about. mans, while there are 350 Kings for only 70 English. Two Sultans have 10 Turkr to rule over, while there are three Czars and only one Slavic. There are: 3 French, and the name John French ap- pears four times, but never with the word “‘general”’ after it. Sixteen Parises are unmenaced by any Von Kluck, and our one Russia has no Von Hindenburg to fear. There are four Bernstorffs, but there are 8) Bryans and several hundred Wilsons to deal with them. There are three Daniel O’Learys, but none of them lays claim to the medals of the Irish Corporal who took two trenches shigle- handed.

About 200 women are assisting in the arrangements for the day. The Consumers’ League is taking an inter- ést in the project because it is being condugted on sanitary lines and be- cause it will encourage the “‘back-to- the-market-place” idea.

CHICAGO AUSTRIAN DENOUNCES SINKING OF THE LUSITANIA Former Army Officer Says “World Court Should Settle Disputes, People Respect Findings. CHICAGO, May 8.—The sinking of the Lusitania was condemned today by J. V. Zimmer, former resident of Austria, former officer in the Aus- trian reserve army, and former loca] agent for the Uranium line. Zimmer, who called to extend his sympathies to A. C. Doolittle, Chicago agent for the Cunard company, denounced the war as unnecessary and absurd, and declared that Germany and England both seemed to have taken leave of their senses. “T didn't think Germany would go so far,” he said. “The sinking of that ship was a shame and an out- rage.” “Such a war is beyond = excuse. There should be an arbitration court to settle international questions. Civilized nations should have common | decency enough to see that the find- ings of such a court would he re- spected. “The German and Austrian people the ones who are fighting the war for’*the benefit of the aristocrats— have nothing to say either in the declaration or the conduct of a war.

By F. FE. A. CURLEY, of the City Art Museum. Under the auspices of the Carondelet Women’s Club, and with the co-opera- tion of the Public Library and the §8t. Louis Art League, a new factor has been injected into the art development of St. Louis. Installed in the Carondelet Branch Library, Kraus and Michigan avenues, an exhibition of 73 paintings for the first time affords St. Louisans who live in that part of the city the opportunity to study and enjoy an art collection, at their convenience. A journey from Carondelet to the City Art Museum in Forest Park means a long tramp to and from Art Hill, in ad- dition to nearly three hours of street ear riding, and this, the women of Ca- rondelet say, is too much. The branch library, it was found, pro- vided an ideal setting for art exhibi- tions, and the Carondelet Women’s Club flecided that, with the co-operation of lAbrarian Bostwick, Carondelet Branch Librarian Mrs. N. de Lauszhter and the St. Louls Art League, the residents of South St. Louis should no longer be de- ymaller cities They therefore arranged with the Art League to have its travei- ing exhibition of paintings go to Soutn §t. Louis, and-tnis probably will be fo'- jowed by mary more exhibiticns. as the public response has been immediate and pncouraging. In charge of :he exhibition are Mrs Albert Cleaver, president of the Caron- felet Women’s ‘Club; Mrs. Nellie de Laughter, librarian. and a committee tonsisiing of Mrs. William Kinsey, Mrs. fonas Bloch, Miss Kate Brown, Rowena Brown, Miss Rose Cooper, Miss Annie Choise], Miss Louise Davis, Mi:s.; Emma Hoise, Miss Irma Hoffmeister, “Urs. Ida Martin, Miss K. O'Halloran and Miss Della Stackl. Several mem- bers of. the committee are teachers in the public schools. Great use is made of the Carondelet Branch Library by the teachers and their pupils, and their interest was especially urged as a rea- aon for having the art exhibitions in the library. Paintings All hy St. The exhibition of 73° paintings is >»y 36 artists, all St. Louisans, It fas organized by the Art League fommittee on Exhibitions and Lec- lures, and has been shown in the fiuseum of the Missouri State Uni- rersity at Columbia, the Carnegie Library at Jefferson City, the High School Auditorium at Edwardsville and the Coliseum in St. Louis. Later]: it will be shown elsewhere in St. Louis, and also in Kirkwood, Web- ster, Ferguson, St. Charles and other] = neighboring cities. It is one of the practical working factors by which]; the St. Louis Art League hopes to bulld up the influence of St. Louis as an art center, The collection is not local sense that implies merely casual merit, but represents good art, en- joyable and educational worth while. There are beautiful paintings in the exhibition. Delightful in col- or, for instance, are four pictures by Frederick G. Carpenter, whose prize painting in the Artists’ Guild Com- petitive Exhibition has been bought oes eee ri Louisaans. SS in a by the chairman of the Jury of Awards, William M. Chase, N. A., of New York, for his private collection. Tom P. Barnett shows two can- vases. Barnett won the Halsey C. Ives landscape prise for two years in succession, and his snow picture, “Winter Day.” presented to the City Museum by the Art League, was bor- rowed from the museum by the Art Department of the Panama-Pacific A group of pictures by E. H. Wuerpel, director of the School of Fine Arts, represents a high expres- sion of poetic and decorative feeling in pictorial art. Wuerpel was award- ed the prize for the best work of art in the competitive exhibition last year. Some other artists contributing are zy of mational reputation, and are: rep- oe fe evidenced by the number of exhibi- _ tions on view.

Bugs fall in and, except in stiff or gumbo soils, seldom are able to climb across sharp walls. Occasional dragging of a log through the ditch will kill many bugs. Post holes along ditch prove good traps. When corn ts waist high, or larger. filling with green corn and keeping it well wet down with a tank-wagon will attract the bugs to crawl into the pile and stay and feed until they develop the fungous growth or disease. This plan of a continuous pile of wet green corn across the field made good in Cald- well County last year, killing bugs by the bushel. “Pend Line” a War: Help. The, asphalt or heavy road oil or coal- tar “dead line’ is ong plan that helps. Plow a strip a yard or more wide. Disc, or harrow, or drag it till you have a dust mulch. Then take a can with a hole punched in bottom, or tin bucket with top bent to form a spout, pour % line of tar or heavy oll strip. Repeat twice a day at first, or as often as needed to keep the line up. Heavy road oil costs least, and the line should be kept up at an oil cost of around 50 cents per mile per day. Fresh lime has also been used. Rain will temporarily either a tar, oil or lime “dead line.” Post holes along the outside of the war trench catch lots of bugs. A little coal ofl or straw burns bugs when you have a killing cooped. Rain, cloudy days or heat are the thre things which develop hospital conditions in chinch bugs, and when the wheat o- corn outlook seems squalliest the pests may fade like an election-day yumor. Sowing a strip of millet between the wheat and corn is a practical trick. Millet will delay the march of the bugs and hold them, and you can plow the millet under before the buggers take a start into the corn. Plow deep, as a chincher can scratch out over two inches.

The area to be covered was very large and the custom of the Bast—that every house have a “compound” surrounding it—ef- forded an attacking force abundant cov- er and increased the chance of ambus- cade tenfold. Therefore but little was done in this direction other than hold- ing all the streets leading to the more thickly populated area. Volunteers Reinforce Defense Lines. All during the night of the 15th the fighting was very severe, with vary- ing results. More and more civilians kept volunteering and squads of these men were sent out as quickly as they could be equipped to boister up the weak point in the lines or were held in the city for policing pur- poses.

All women were ordered to board the merchant ships in the harbor and these were rapidly full te overflowing. Every civilian who vol- unteered was given a rifle and a car- tridge belt and sent in squads to hold various portions of the town. By this time the H. M. 8S. Cadmus, which had been lying just outside the harbor, had landed its full quota of marines and bluejackets, with machine guns.

Washingtou Avenue ney N price, c use around the hous Special price c ence of all the trade routes between the Far and Near East and Australia it ranks as the fifth largest shipping port in the world. On this account it has been very strongly fortified by the En- glish Government, so strongly, indeed, that is is sometimes known ag the “‘Gi- braltar of the East.”’ At the commencement of hostilities in Europe it was from this port, and Hongkong, that the English and French China squadrons radiated in their en- deavors to intercept that portion of the German fleet stationed in Asiatic wa- ters. Some of the ships so engaged have been retained in this vicinity and it is due to this fact, and to this fact alone, that Singapore is not a mass of ruins at the present moment. Had their nyarines been unavailable it is hard to imagine what would have been the re- sult. Discontent Known for Months. On Oct. 10, 1914, the Fifth Native Light Infantry arrived in Singapore from Madras. They had been sen. ‘o replace the King’s Own Yorkshire Light Infantry which had been ordered to France. From the moment of their ar- rival indications of unrest and discon- tent were everywhere apparent—a cond!- tion of affairs, by the way. prevalent in more than one Indian regiment at the present time. There had been some slight trouble, to be sure, regarding cer- tain promotions which had taken place. That the resulting mutiny, however. should be ascribed to this is absurd. The fundamental causes lay far deeper and were of a far more complex nature, so complex, indeed, that space does not permit of their discussion here. Suffice it to say that this was the very regi- ment, along with three others, that 43. bellion !n Trndia. Well have they livea up to their traditions. As far as can be gathered at the present time the thought of actual mutiny was not bruited about the regiment until news of their proposed transfer to Hongkong was received— around Jan. 1. It was this, added to the fact that the Singapore garrison had been depleted until 200 of the Royal Garrison Artillery and 60 sap- pers were the only regular European troops remaining, that gave rise in the native mind to the belief that ac- tual mutiny was feasible. These va- garies of thought rapidly crystallized into shape upon the receipt of word that the transport Nile was on her way out to embark the regiment for its new station. The Nile was due to arrive on Feb. 18. The rebellion was, therefore, scheduled to take place at midnight of the 17th—before a chance had been given the authorities to re- move the supply of ammunition stored in thé barracks. Imagine the surprise of the mutil- neers when the Nile steamed into the harbor on the morning of the 15th— three days ahead of time. All their plans were upset and they were face to face with the necessity of complet- ing new ones very rapidly. By this time the military authorities had an inkling that trouble was in the air and it was decided to remove thé ammunition and place it on board the Nile before nightfall. Accordingly, at $8 o'clock in the afternoon of the 16th, four motor lorries were sent to AlexX- ander Barracks for this purpose. Wre first loaded and whizzed away without the slightest murmur arising. It was as the second was being filled that the trouble started. As if by magic a squad of troopers sprang up and started to fire on the men loading the ammunition. The affray was short- lived. Almost immediately the mut!- neers were in possession of the lorry and its contents, ifs guardians killed. The fight was on. Interned. Germans Released. Those of the regiment who were not under arms streamed into the barracks to get their guns. Those that were commenced to supply them- selves with all the cartridges they could conveniently carry.

A Signed Statement for the Post-Dis- patch and New York World. NEW YORK, May 8. OKIO has decided on an ultimatum. ga Press reports put the Japanese patience at 48 hours. A revised version of the Japanese demands was presented at Peking. China rejected it. Whereupon Mr. Hioki turned to the Chinese Minister, Lu Cheng Hiang: ‘'! am sorry,” he said. What he meant— what he must have meant as a patriot of Nippen—was “I am _ very much pleased.’’ Fact is that Chinese diplomacy has had a Seattle-Goldfield boom, at least in its own estimation. And a boom is bound to meet a pincushion, as all other toy balloons invariably do. Chinese diplomacy leoked for England and America to “mix it up’’ to the finish with Japan and just save her a nice lit- tle ladylike job of carting round a pea- cock’s tail feather. China became con- firmed in this conviction when Japan took then the trouble to revising her demands. Her,.diplomatists said: ‘Ha, ha, here we are. Japan revised her de- mands. Why should she do that at all? Not for our sake, certainly. Japan knows that she could give us a goo dusting any day in the calendar, Even we know that much. Pray then, for what other earthly reason than that America and England gave Japan a talking to?” Closing, therefore, her pipe-dreamy eyes on a beatific smile, China sa.d “No” to Japan. There was something of a coy maiden about the way she said it, too. Thereupon, and very promptly, the Japanese Minister to China said something which sounde” very much as though Kie™chau is :o zmain under the sun-round riag for sc 4e little time. The offer of the returr sf the German lease in Shantung was. fithdrawn. . Tendered Territory to China. Japan has gone through the form of presenting Kiauchau Lack to China. Be- fore the war broke out Japan had said to Germany that she would _ return Tsingtau to China if Germany would hand it over to her without fuss or fight. Without fighting—that was the condition. Germany did not turn Kiau- chau without a fight. That lets Japan out. War? We are tempted to say ‘‘Fiddle- sticks,” but one can never be sure of anything in these civilized days. But, in the first place, the present army of China is largely composed of toplofty programs, plans and nicely drawn up figures—they are locked in the archives. Of course, there are loafing in sun- nier nooks of the Land of Centraj Gi fragmentary remnants, I mean remote descendants, of the ancient bannermen who.soaked the Min dynasty right where it resided and laid the foundation of the Manchu dynasty—those philosophic artists in the gentle art of soft graft. Japan could fight some of them. She eould fight, too, the originals of the Juan’s one-division army which has gince become the nucleus of the new pational army of China today. But that’s about all. There was a big talk in 1907; China Was to have an up-to-date, thor- oughiy equipped army of 3 divisions, by 1912, of which the only thing that mate- rialized was the year 1912. Whatever happens, one things seems certain: Japan is going to get what she is after. Her wants are rather immod- est, but, after all, compared to what Russia got in the happy, palmy days of Li Hung Chang and the famous palm- oiling artist called Count Cassini, #.- pan’s demands are but a beggar’s pit- ' tance. She is trying to get some advantages in the kick-off end of the Liaotung Peninsula. What she should do {Is to claim that portion of South Manchuria outright. It is hers by the time-hon- ored right of conquest and through the Shimodoseki treaty. But she is too shy for that. And, mind you, Japan fought two good-sized wars over this very ter- ritory—and the affair with Russia was more than she could afford. Question Small One. There is an impression in America that the Japanese proposal of joint-policing China ineludes all the chief cities in the empire. That is Sunday supplementally joke on the very face of it. All the po- lice force In Japan would not be enough to supply one-third of the force needed. This joint police and a number of other propositions of Japan are confined to . the South Manchuria, which is under the Japanese influence today. Another thing: Time chosen by Japan for the settlement of the long-standing ‘Vitferences between her and China has ‘been unfortunate. Europe is all tied up in an unhandsome mess right down on the bloody floor. And the Pekin nego- tiation looks as if Japan has taken a coward’s advantage of bulldozing her y*much ‘bigger but much weaker sister across the Ycllow Sea. Well, she has. With Germany free from European tangle that astute dis- ciple of LA Hung Chang and the preseni President of China, Yuan Shi Hai, could have played the German tiger against the Japanese wolf to the finickiest Queen's taste. Naturally Japan knew that well. And the venerable statesmen of Tokio are acting in wisdom of copy- book dictum: ‘‘Make hay while the sun shines.” That they are acting with the Profound conviction of bringing about the ultimate peace of the Far East is beyond the thinnest shadow of doubt.

W. Jenks. 5 Special Interview for the Post-Dis- | patch and New York World. Tendered Territory to China. NEW YORK, May 8. HE Western world has been watch- 7. ing with profound interest the ef- forts which China has been mak- ing during the past few years to estab- i a republican form of government. The recent demands of Japan have caused a general feeling of apprehen- sion that, if they were enforced to the full, the independence and integrity of China would be destroyed and the treaty rights of Europe and the United States seriously threatened. In view of the quences which were likely to follow a complete backdown of China in face of the Japanese ultimatum whose time limit was set for 6 o'clock this even- ing, Prof. Jeremiah W. Jenks, who has spent much time in the far East and who was appointed by President Roose- velt to assist the Chinese Government, in carrying out the reform of the Chi- nese currency, was asked to discuss the situation. ‘‘Would these demands, if granted, af- fect the sovereignty of China and China’s treaty obligations to the United States and to other foreign nations?’ was asked. “In my judgment, Group V of the de- mands (which according to the latest dispatches Japan has agreed to reserve for future discussion) would do away with the sovereignty of China and would violate China's obligations to the United States and to other foreign Powers. “It would be one thing for China to employ Japanese advisers of her own free will; it would be quite another thing if China were compelled to ac- cept Japanese advisers. Everyone un- derstands the significance of ‘advice’ given under such circumstances. “The concessions demanded in con- nection with railways would violate clearly China’s treaties with Great Brit- ain and also the general treaty obliga- tions assumed in connection with the so-called open-door policy.”’ Would Close Open Door. ‘Tf Japan’s extreme demands were granted, would the effect be to close the open door in China?” “It certainly would. Article 6 of Group V gives Japan the exclusive rights in the province of Fukien 9° working mines, building railways, con- structing harbor works, or of securing capital for such works. “It is -nteresting in this connection to recall the fact that it has been widely published in Japan and even asserted by influential Japanese that the Unitec States, acting through the Bethlehem Steel Co., attempted to secure a naval station in the province of Fukien. Tae bact is that the Bethlehem Steel Co. did secure a contract to construct harbor works, but it was for the Chinese Gov- ernment, not for the United States Gov- ernment. The opposition of the Jap- anese Government alone has prevented the carrying out of this work. “The contract, however, is still alive; and a curious situation would arise if the Chinese Government, assenting to the Japanese demands as to the pro- vince of Fukien should cancel the con- tract. In such circumstances would the United States feel called on to support a demand of the Bethlehem Steel Co for damages, and if so, against whom, the Ohinese dovernment of the Jap- anese Government? “The bearing of the Fukien demand upon the sovereignty of China could not be overlooked. Its acceptance would mean that China was not free to con. struct harbor works in one of her own provinces without ffirst consulting Japan. , Obligation of America, ‘Is the Government of the United States under any obligation, moral, po- litical, or material to intervene in any way between China and Japan?’ “The United States certainly has such an obligation. The American Secretary of State, John Hay, was the author of the oven door policy. Another Secre- tary, Mr. Root, made with the Japanese Ambassador the Root-Takahira 2gree- ‘ment which confirmed that policy. “There can be no doubt that under the conditions which would be create by the concessions of Group V of the demands, particularly Fukien conces- sions, the rights of the United States would he irjuvured, Furthermore, an: this is possibly of even greater im- purtance, these demands if insisted on ty the letter would wrong not only the United States, but also all other com- merciul countries. “There will be one of these days a world conference to settle terms of peace among the nations which are now at war. In such a conference the Government of the United States ought to play an important part. If ical and moral significance of those questions at issue in the Far East involving the rights of many nations its word will have much greater weight.” “Is there any justification for the ~~ — [ial 8 ee ~- cost more than a pretty penny to Jap- anese-China trade.

There is, however, no,need for insistence of ‘this opportune, or should I say in- opportune moment by a threat of war. “A year ago Liang Ch’i-Ch-Iao,. one’ of the great Chinese leaders, pro- posed in the Council of State (tem- porarily acting as a Parliament) that the Chinese treaties made in the period immediately preceding and fol- lowing the Russo-Japanese war should be codified, and that any out- standing question with foreign na- tions should be investigated and amicably adjusted. Tnis resolution was passed unanimously and was act- ed upon. The Chinese Government has, as a matter of fact, been ready at all times to discuss the questions and make a just settlement. Where Japan's Rights End. “Japan is right in insisting that neither Russia’ nor Germany nor Great Britain nor any other Power snall so trespass upon China in the hour of her weakness as to injure Japan’s interests. It should be a worthy and incidentally, I may say, also a wise and advantageous policy for Japan to support China in resist- ing any such aggression. “She is justified in going far enough to protect her rights. But She has absolutely no justification to assume that China would oppose such a policy in any. way; and she is wrong, in my judgment, in the as- Sumption that the Chinese Govern- ment lacks the ability to decide for herself upon the choice of her ad- visers and upon wise financial and governmental policies. China does need to be put in leading strings.” “Is it possible for the United States — — tl cee i LIND’S SEVENTH and LUCAS AV.

Curing Catarrh is A Simple Method Go to its Source and the Cure Is Then Ac- complished. s. 8. Only those who have used &. ; 8 for the blood know that catarrh simply a blood trouble. Most people, uninstructed in this membraneous disease, treat their nose and throat as if catarrh was a local trouble. It is not so. To treat ca- tarrh it is necessary to go into the stomach, the liver, the lungs, the kid- neys and all the vital organs ofthe body. And it is S. 8S. 8. that at once enters the entire blood circulation, all the organs of the body, all the mu- cous surfaces and becomes a domi- nant factor for renewed health. It is a simple method when you figure it out. Catarrh is plainly an inflamma- tion of the mucous membranes. And there is in S. 8S. S. certain in- gredients which cause these mucous surfaces to change or convert their secretions into a substance for easy elimination. A special book on this subject will be mailed to all who write to The Swift Specific Co. 110 Swift Bidge., Atlanta, Ga.

Americar people would do well to con- sider th}s method employed by the En- Klish to combat this insidious disease. Everyone knows how damp the English climate is and how Gampness affects those suffering from catarrh. In En- giand they treat catarrhal deafness and head noises as a constitutional disease and use an internal remedy for it that is really very efficacious. Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch tick tell how they had their hear- ing restored by this English treatment to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainiv audible seven and cight inches away from either ear. Therefore, if vou know someone who is troubled with catarrh. catarrhal deaf- ness or head noises, cut out this formula and hand it to them and you will have been the means of saving some poor suf- ferer perhaps from total deafness.

He knows that the people of the country expedt him to act with deliberation as well as with firmness,’’ _ The President, upon whom the eyes of the world are focused at the present moment, had studied in quiet seclusion today the aspects of law and fact in connection with the sinking of the Lusi- tania, with a consequent loss of many American lives. The great human tragedy, coupled with the responsibilities of the hour, Caused the President to deny himself to all callers, even to members of his official family, while he turned over in his mind the course to he pursued by the United States Government in one of the most serious crises in its history.

The Consul is providing clothes and money for the destitute Americans among the 645 survivors here. Capts. Miller and Cassel of the London Embassy staff, have arrived here to help him. W. B. Phillips, an American, told the correspondent for the Post-Dispatch: “I saw Alfred Vanderbilt standing on the starboard deck five minutes before the ship sank. He was with Charles Froh- man and Miss Rita Jolivet, an actress. The latter was saved. Van- derbilt’s calmness was heroic. It struck. me even in that moment of crushing disaster.

Seventy thousand prisoners already have been brought in. LONDON, May %8.—The outstanding features of the war news today w the sinking of the British torpodo-boat destroyer Maori by a mine off the Bel- gian coast, and the announcement from Berlin of the capture by the Germans of the large Russian port of Libau, in the Baltic province of Courland. The Maori was 28 feet long and of 1065 tons displacement. She was built in 1909 and her complement was 71 men. She was armed with two ¢-inch guns and two torpedo tubes. ° News was received of the torpedoing 7 1898. Goole was torpedoed by a German sub- marine off Coquet Island, near the Northumberland coast.

The crew of the steamer was landed at Ro- syth Castle, Scotland. The Truro was a small vessel of 272 tons. She was 2% feet long and was built at Dundee in ert Struck a Mine. The official communication on the sinking of the Maori says: “While operating off the Belgian coast the torpedo-boat destroyer Maori, Commander B. W.

Virtually all stories agreed that there was little panic on the .vessel after she had been struck. The majority of those who were saved owe their rescue to life preservers, according to the stories, few persons having left the ship in the lifeboats. Scores jumped into the sea and were picked up by the lifeboats later. A sharp lookout for submarines was kept aboard the Lusitania as , she approached the Irish coast, according to Ernest Cowper, a Toronto newspaper man who was among the survivors landed here. He declared that they went about the work of getting passengers into the boats in a that after the ship was torpedoed there was no panic among the crew, but prompt and efficient manner. Many of the Lusitania’s survivors who landed at Queenstown were only partly clad, having cast aside as much clothing as possible when they donned life belts. Most of the men, women and children helped ashore by the local bluejackets still wore these belts. One woman more than 70 years old was taken from the water after having been kept afloat. for some time by her lifebelt.

They alone bear all the responsibility for what has happened. ‘‘Germany on her part, left nothing undone to repeatedly and strongly warn them. The imperial Ambassador in Washington’ even went so far as to make public warnings so as to draw attention to this danger. The English press sneered then at the warnings relied on the protection of the British fleet to safeguard Atlantic traffic.’’ 1198 Dead, 115 Americans, - Steamship Company Now Says QUEENSTOWN, May 8.—The latest estimate of lives lost ag a result of the torpedoing of the Cunard liner, Lusitania, by a German submarine, off the Irish coast yesterday is 1198. It is believed that almost all, if not all the survivors have been brought ashore, and there is little hope of recovering any other passengers alive. | 4 Of the dead many are women. The stories from Queenstown describe the bringing in of the bodies of a great number of wometi, many of them still*unidentified. , A dispatch from Fishguard, Wales, says a Great Western steamer arrived Saturday afternoon with 100 bodies of victima of the Lusitania. The Queenstown docks are the temporary resting places also of the bodies of several children. - One dead mother still is clasping in her rigid arms the body of her 3-months-old baby. | When the Lusitania left New York, May 1, she had on board 1901 persons. Of these, 1251 were passengers and 650 crew. The passengers were made up of 291 in the first cabin, 599 in the second and 561 in the steerage. » The list of survivors shows, so far, that about 90 first class and 75 second class passengers were saved.

They are followed by a third list containing the names of survivors among the steerage passengers and crew, differentiated when possidie. When the Lusitania left New York May 1 she had on board, according to the latest available information, a total of 1901 persons. Of these 1251 were passengers and 650 crew. Of the passengers there were 291 in the first cabin, 599 in the second and 361 in the steerag =) ws... a x « o~ wy? i all ‘When he reached the surface he grasped an oar and then a chair. jammed. The first boat launched was almost filled with children, with whom were a few women. It capsized as it struck the water and all were swept away, although two stokers gave their lives _ in attempting to save some of them. One hundred and seventeen stewards and stewardesses of the ship’s complement of 416 were saved. Little Panic When Liner Sank. Judging from the recitals of the survivors, there was comparatively little panic on board the Lusitgnia when she went down, nor is there anything to show that the rule of the sea favoring women and childrea in the work of rescue was violated. Many of the liner’s lifeboats were rendered, useless by the fact that she listed so sharply that they could not be used. : Many of the passengers did not believe that the Lusitania would sink as quickly as she did, if at all. Consequently they did not join fin the rush for the lifeboats, but evidently preferred to trust in their belief that the watertight compartment of the vessel would keep her afloat until such time as help should come out from the Irish shore, less than 10 miles away. It is related that some of the passengers even disdained to put on life belts, when these were handed to them. When the passengers did realize that the Lusitania was doomed they found that most of the boats on the port side were so jammed because of the great list of the vessel that they could not be lowered and the ‘last seen of them by the more fortunate passengers who had secured places in the starboard boats, or who had jumped overboard and had been picked up, they were lined on the sloping decks awaiting their fate, doubtless even then believing that with land so close they would still be saved. However, the torpedoes had torn such gaping holes in the liner that she did not remain afloat for more than 20 minutes and the calls for help which the wireless sent out, although answered quickly, could not bring the rescuing steamers to the spot in time to be of any service. According to several members of the crew of the Lusitania, whose statements are corroborated by passengers, the swamping of the lifeboats was due to high speed of the vessel. They say that after the first torpedo exploded the captain gave the order for full steam ahead, and the vessel was making 21 knots when the second torpedo severed the steam pipes from the engines. This made im- possible the immediate slowing down of the engines. The speed with which the Lusitania plunged ahead, nothwithstanding her heavy list to star- board, caused the lifeboats to foul the davits. About 115 Americans Dead. It is estimated that there were 188 Americans on board the Cunard liner. So far as could be ascertained at this time, 73 Americans were saved. Consequently the death list of Americans is about 115. Hither two or three torpedoes struck the Lusitania. One report says the first projectile was followed by two others, striking in quick succes- sion. Another report has it that two submarines took part in the on- slaught, one attacking from the port and the other from the starboard side. Capt. Turner, commander of the Lusitania, has refused so far to make any formal statement. His first remark on landing was one of quiet irony. « ° “Well,” he said, “it is the fortune of war.” The captain secluded himself during the night im apartments over the town bank, but was able to be about today in uniform. He displayed great grief over the loss of his vessel, but has expressed no opinion on the action of the Germans. Capt. Turner remained on the Lusitania’s bridge until the structure "was submerged, then climbed up a ladder as would a diver from a tank. He clung to the chair for nearly two hours and finally when the chair turned over -he flung up a gold-braided arm. This was seen by a mem- ber of the crew in one of the boats and thus the commander was saved. _ He was badly broken down when he landed Friday evening, but after a short rest he seemed to recover and appeared to be nearly nor- mal. : None of the survivors has any complaint to make regarding the ac- tion of the crew. All agree that everything possible was done under the circumstances. The first trainload of survivors left Queenstown this afternoon en route to London. See In shipping circles and among many of those saved the impression wevails that more than one German submarine attacked the Lusitania and that two or more torpedoes found their mark. This view is held at the Cunard offices at Liverpool, but the officers effthe ship will make no statement until the inquest or an admiralty _jaquiry brings out their evidence. The scenes at Queenstown, where the survivors were landed and where there are many bodies of those who were killed or died of exposure, were heartrending. Many women separated from their husbands have been searching the hotels, hoping to find them alive or, failing in this, have een looking for them in hastily improvised morgues. . Others went on to ork, while stil] others left yesterday afternoon for London, where they will arrive Sunday morning. At the London and Liverpool offices of the Cunard Company, large crowds again assembled yesterday, hoping against hope that those whom they had expected to meet on Saturday at the latest, might still turn up, but there was little consolation for those who had not already heard from heir expected friends or relatives. Americans Share Britons’ Anger. Nothing that the Germans have done since the outbreak of the war has so aroused the anger and determination of the British people as the sinking of the Lusitania. This anger is shared by thp Americans in Lon- don who had relatives or friends aboard. : The members of the Stock Exchange insisted on the withdrawal of all members of German birth, although nationalized. At many places throughout the country these nationalized British subjects were made io suffer for Germany's action. In one large shipbuilding plant at Wall- send the workmen threatened to strike unless those employes with German names were discharged, and the company, although badly in need of work- ‘en, was compelled to grant the demand. German barbers and other Germans whose presence in the country has been tolerated since the war began also found themselves boycotted. But there have been no disorders of any kind. woe ——p | Gov. Dunne Urges Calmness, Has Faith in Administration SPRINGFIELD, Th, May 8&.—Gov. Dunne today iesiied a signed state- ment urging calmness in the face of the sinking of the Lusitania.

There was little panic so far as I could see; everyone was too dazed to realize that the stories of the safety of th: big Niner would prove true and that she would stay afloat, but the constantly increasing list showed that this hope was vain. “Many of the passengers ran here and there about the decks, al- though Capt. Turner and his officers tried their best to pacify them. Many of the women, however, were hysterical, and some of them with infants in their arms caught at the fastenings of the boats and hamp- ered the launching. Altogether 10 boats were finally swung off. , “We had no warning and the big steamer sank within 12 or 15 minutes after we were first hit. f a el eG OO AL LAL LOGO LICL a ii, —_—_ —_———-— Relations Committee: “The tragedy is of course pro- foundly regretted. If the reports as to the loss of life are true, the sympathies of the civilized world will be deeply stirred. But for us it seems to me that good sense dictates that we keep our heads until we get our bearings. It is a mad time to get rattled and act impulsively. ‘Don’t rock the boat.’ “Without expressing an opinion as to our relations to this event or as to our duty in the premises, there are some facts we cannot overlook and are bound to con- sider. We cannot overlook the fact that the Lusitania was a Brit- ish ship fiying the British flag and subject at any time to be put into the actual naval service of the Government, Indeed, it is said, that at the time she was at- tacked she was carrying military reservists to England for service in the British army. “True, there were Americans citizens aboard, but it must not be forgotten that they went aboard a belligerent ship with Americans on Lusitania in Same Position as If in British Fort, Says Senator Stone HE following statement on the sinking of the Lusitania was given out by Senator Stone, Chairman of the Senate Foreign full knowledge of the risk and after official warning by the German Government.

Sixteen hundred prisoners, 18 cannon and four ma- chine guns fell into our hands. “The pursuit of the defeated en- emy by the army under Gen.

Our advance forces crossed the River Wisloka in the neighborhood of Krosno yesterday evening. “The joint action of all parts of the army engaged in this advance jed to the cutting off of not inconsid- erable Russian forces. Consequently the total number of prisoners taken in the Galician arena since the end of April had so far been increased to 70,000 men. Thirty-eight cannon, In- cluding nine of heavy caliber, have been taken from the Russians.” Libau recently has attained great im- portance as & Russian seaport. It had a population of 64,500 in 1897. For some days, German forces, led by Field Marshal von Hindenburg, have been advancing into the Russian Baltic provinces, a region which heretofore has escaped the ravages of war.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH __ aan eee Stories Told by Survivors of Sinking of Lusitania Continued From Page One. the Lusitania, had this to say of his experiences: “There was not as much excitement as one would expect in such a catastrophe. When I saw the ship was sinking I jumped overboard. I had no life belt, but I picked up a bit of flotsam. Finally I got to an upturned boat and clung to that. Later, with some others who swam to this boat, I managed to right it. Then we climbed in and started to rescue aS many people as we could reach. “The German submarine made no attempt to save anybody. it for a moment just before it dove. “The first torpedo struck us between the first and second funnels» The Lusitania shook, and settled down a bit. Two other torpedoes quickly followed, and soon finished our ship. Four or five of the life- boats went down with her, and the tremendous suction as the liner was engulfed dragged many people down also. The noise of the explosion was not very great. The first torpedo burst with a big thud, and we knew that we were doomed. “We had floated about two hours in our small boat before the first We saw rescue steamers arrived.” The Rev. W. H. Simpson, a passenger in the second cabin, saved him- sclf by clinging to an upturned boat. “After a struggle we filled this boat with all we could rescue,” Dr. “We tied a pair of trousers to an oar and hoisted it as a signal of distress. A big trawler came along and took us aboard. When we were struck I was in the saloon. Life belts were handed around but the people did not want to put them on, and they rushed to the deck just as they were.” Vessel Sank in 15 Minutes. The library steward of the Lusitania related the story of the disaster, said: “When we were 10 miles southwest of Kinsale, and while the pas- sengers were at luncheon and in the best of spirits generally, many of them chatting merrily, an awful explosion rudely shocked them. They did not know what had happened and they quickly rushed from their seats. “They soon learned, however, that a German submarine had sent two torpedoes into the ship. One of them had entered the stokehold and the other had burst into the hull in the forward part of the vessel. “Capt. Turner and all the officers tried to pacify the frightened pas- sengers, but their efforts failed. ‘ “The water rushed into the Cunarder and she sank within 15 minutes. “There were five babies in their mothers’ arms, which was a most pitiful sight. “The torpedoes struck the Lusitania on the starboard side, to which she listed heavily, while the passengers cried frantically to the officers save their lives. “The order was given to launch the boats, but in. lowering them in the excitement, the ropes caught on some of the fastenings and others broke. One boat fell into the water bow down and was sunk. “Many passengers were placed safely in the boats in an orderly manner, but others who had placed lifebelts around their waists fell into the sea and subsequently were picked up by boats. “At one time I saw upward of 100 passengers floating about in the water, held up by life preservers. “Ten of the boats that I saw were able to save about 50 persons al- Simpson said. in an interview in which he to together. “The Stormcock approached several boats and picked off 150 persons, many of whom had been in the water for upwards of six hours.” Lifeboat Nearly Swamped by Suction. W. G. E. Meyers of Stratford, Ont., a lad of 16 years, who was on his way to join the British navy as a cadet, said: “I had just gone to the upper deck after lunch to play a game of quoits with two other boys. One of them looking over the side saw a white stream in the water and shouted: ‘There’s a torpedo, coming straight at us!’ We watched it until it struck us, with an awful explosion. Then we rushed to the boat deck. Just as we got there a huge quantity of wood splinters and great masses of water flew all around us. “A second torpedo struck us about four minutes after the first. JZ went below to get a life belt and met a woman who was frenzied with fear. I tried to calm her and helped her into a boat. Then I saw a boat which was nearly swamped. I got into it and with other men baled it out. Then a crowd of men clambered into it and nearly swamped it. “We got only 200 yards away when the Lusitania sank bow first. Many persons sank with her, drawn down by the suction. Their shrieks were appalling. We had to pull hard to get away and as it was we were almost dragged down. We saved all the women and children we could, but a great many of them went down.” William Brown of Alaska, another survivor, said he decided not to join the rush for the boats. “I came to the conclusion that a life belt the thing for me,” he said. “So I went to my cabin and got one. | slid down a long rope into the water. Subsequently I got WAS m4 into a boat.” de Ayala, Cuban Consul-General at Liverpool, of his legs was hurt and he was badly injured, swam about for a long lime and came to shore wearing only his underclothing. He climbed into three different boats but apparently the first two overturned. Mrs. Stanley Lines, who was brought ashore in one of the ship’s boats, immediately started a search of the city to find her husband. She learned at 4 o'clock this morning that he was dead at a hotel. The funerals of most of the British victims will be held at Queens- town Sunday. The charge that many of the passengers ‘of the Lusitania were per- suaded to get out of the lifeboats and return to the liner by stewards, who ran to the vessel’s side crying that she was all right and would not sink, was made by R. J. Timmis, a Gainsville, Tex., cotton buyer. “I was dining on D deck,” said Timmis, “when the Lusitania was struck. I rushed to my cabin for my life belt. Before I could adjust it I was compelled to surrender it to a panic-stricken steerage woman whom I met and who had none of her own. I went to the port side where I saw one of the lifeboats get away. I assisted the crew in lowering the next one, but it turned over and threw the 60 occupants into the water. “At this time the stewards began rushing around the deck crying: ‘She’s all right; she isn’t going to sink. Get out of the boats!’ Many of the people complied and returned to the decks. “Before they could get back in the boats the Lusitania was awash. I was submerged when she plunged under, but am a good swimmer and was able to keep afloat. I swam for two hours, finally drifting near my friend, James Baker, from London, who shared a plank with me on Which he was floating. “We were finally taken on board of a damaged canvas lifeboat which vas in a sinking condition. We managed to keep it afloat for an hour, when we were picked up by the trawler Indian Empire. It had eight others on board, among them the woman to whom I gave my life belt.” “From the day we sailed we complacently spoke of the possibilities of the German menace, but no one believed it, for we scouted the idea of being torpedoed,” said F. J. Gauntlett of Washington. “A nymber of us were going over on business. It was shortly after 2--probably 10 minutes past—and I was lingering in the dining saloon chatting with my friends when the first explosion occurred. “On making our way to the deck we were informed that there was no danger and we need not be alarmed, but the ship was gradually sink- ing deeper into the water and efforts were made to launch the boats. “Fifty or more persons entered the first boat and as it swung from the davits it fell suddenly. I think most of the occupants perished. Other boats were launched with the greatest difficulty. “Swinging free from one of them as it descended, I struck out, swim- ming strongly and steadily for a piece of wreckage which I observed. On reaching it I found it was one of the collapsible boats, but I had to rip the canvas with a knife before I could get it open. Another passenger climbed into it and between us we were able to get about 30 persons out of the water. While we were thus engaged I noticed that the Lusitania was gradually sinking. ‘(Women and children under the protection of men had clustered in lines on the port side, and as the ship made her plunge, down a little bit head and the an angle of nearly 90 degrees, this little army slid down toward starboard side, oe themselves against each my), although one RT RR AL RL I LEN TE ES LIEN SS ENN ' | Couple Born in Alton Who Were Passengers Aboard the Lusitania MR 2u@ MRS FRANK B TFSSON.

NEW YORK, May 8.—Just what | effect the death of Charles Frohman | will have cn the theatrical situation | here and in England was a matter of much speculation today. It is considered probable the Froh- man interests, in the main, will be undisturbed, for the time at least. wf late years Frohman had devoted al- most his entire attention to the ar- tistic end of his enterprises, leaving the business end to Alf. Hayman. partners he had, besides Hayman, Mr. Erlanger, Marc Klaw, Charles | Rich of Boston, William Harris and several others. Fronman’s death’ may mean the Frohman force of theatrical stars will be broken up to a certain ex- tent. Few of them have written con- tracts. Frohman’s word was held to be good enough and he never violated it. John Drew, Ethel Barrymore, Maude Adams, Julia Sanderson, ald Brian, Marie Doro, Anne Murdock —all had verbal contracts with Mr. Frohman, it is said. These, it is be- lieved, will terminate with his death. It was in the same personal way that Frohman dealt also with most of the authors whose plays he pro- duced. His word, to J. M. Barrie, was accepted as good as a bond. It was through his close personal friend- ships with such men as Barrie that he was able to control their output of dramatic material.

EDMUNDS Right of Neutral on Belligerent Ship Always Acknowledged, He Declares. By STERLING E. EDMUNDS, Lecturer on “International Law, Louls University Law School. (Reprinted from yesterday’s Post- Dispatch.) In the sinking of the Lusitanla by a German sibmarine, with the attendart great loss of life among American citi- zens on board, the German Government has created a casus belli for the United States. When the German war zone was an- nounced last February, within which Germany publicly proposed to torpedo merchant vessels without warning and without making provision for the safety of passengers and crew, the United States replied very emphatically that should German vessels “Destroy on the high seas an American vessel or the lives of American citizens it would be dif- ficult for the Government of the United States to view the act in any other light than as an indefensible violation of neutral rights, which it would be very hard indeed to recon- cile with the friendly relations now so happily subsisting between the two governments’ that “If such a deplorabie situation should arise, the Imperiai Govern- ment can readily appreciate that the Government of the United States would be constrained to hold the Imperial German Government to a Strict accountability for such acts of their naval authorities and to take any steps it might be necessary to take. to safeguard American lives and property and to secure to Amer- ican citizens the full enjoyment of their acknowledged rights on the high seas."’ This is clearly in accordance with the law. The Lusitania was an enemy ves- sel and therefore capturable. St. In the| Sinking of Lusitania Causes a Profound * * Impression in Italy ROMB, Via Paris, May &. HE sinking of the Lusitania T has caused a profound impres- sion in Italy. Anxiety is in- creased by the fact that there were several Italians among the pas- sengers. The feeling in Rome may be de- scribed as one of indignation at the killing of neutrals, and measures to end such proceedings are being urged on all sides. ee) absence of conditions permitting of the taking of the Lusitania into a German prize port, the vessel could rightfully be destroyed. But the German commander was under the absolute primary duty of providing for the safety of the passen- g and crew. Even if the vessel were ied defensively, so long as it did not initiate attack, the immunity of passen- gers and crew remained, and responsi- bility rested squarely upon Germany. Warning Gives No Exemption. But there is every evidence that the srinking of the Lusitania was deliberate- ly planned. The advertisement of the Imperial German Embassy appearing in the papers of the United States last Saturday warning the public against traveling upon British vesse!s indicates the design very clearly. But it can be readily seen that the German Goverr- ment cannot relieve itself of responsi- bility for the consequences of a highly illegal act, even though it gave notice, ror are American citizens required to forezo their legal rights to safety from intentional injury upon neutral or enemy vessels on the high seas. The action of Germany has now vio- lently challenged this proposition the issues are joined. It is hardly An expected that the German Governmen# will disavow the act in view of the evi- dences of premeditation: on tne con- trary, we may expect a statement to the effect that warning was given and that American citizens traveling upon British vessels assumed all incidental risk. This may be deduced from the published warning of the German Embassy, which in itself was an insult to the American Government. In effect this warning said to the American public: Although your own Government assures you of your invi- olable right of safety on any vessel upon the high seas, the imperial German Government hereby m utifies you that it will not respect that right if you ven. ture upon an enemy vessel. In no modern war has the immunity of non-combatants ever before been openly challenged by a belligerent, nor are there any instances of such whole- sale disregard for the lives of neutral citizens. The conduct of Germany tends to confirm rumors heard sometime ago that she wished to involve the United States with the hope of a speedier end- ing of the war, upon the pretext that she could not fight the entire world. But the people of the United States do not want war with Germany, and it is cer- tain that we will not be at war with Germany if any honorable avenue to continue peace is open. On the other hand some very drastic form of protest is incumbent upon the United States. There are many forms it could take, any of which, however, might lead to war. A suspension of diplomatic relations is not without prec- edent as a means of exhibiting strong disapproval of the misconduct of an- other state. We have applied it with reference to Brazil and Mexico. A sus- pension of diplomatic relations jis the counterpart “of a suspension of com- merce, such as the United States re- sorted to in its non-intercourse acts dur- ing the Napoleonic wars, as a protest against unlawful interference with our commerce. Such suspension would ter- minate the humane work that Ambassa- dor Gerard has been able to do in Ger- many in behalf of the imprisoned sub- jects of those states whom the United States is representing. 88 Ships, 13 With Passengers, in or Near German War Zone NEW YORK, May 8.—Eighty-eight vessels bound from or to American ports, three of them flying American flags, were today within the German war zone or due to pass through it on their voyages. Thirteen of them carry passengers, and one, the Cameronia, left New York May 3 for Halifax, pre- sumably to take Canadian troops to England.

All things considered the sympathy of the fan will probably be with the Owners and management of the Browns if, as they claim, the fine of $500 and suspension inflicted on Pitch- er Hanwtilton is deserved. This is one player to whom ex- ceptional leniency at all times has been turned. Notwithstanding this, he once before manifested a disposition to turn and bite the hand that fed him, when he sought firancial consolation from the Federals, at a time when loyalty was something naturally to be ex- pected of him. * It Was Up to Hamilton. PW PEN injured and under circum. Stances that were not altogether favorable—in his automobile accident last year, the club for which he worked carried him right along with no abatement of contract or salary. If Hamilton has repaid with anything bat his best efforts to get and keep in condition, since then, he is not the kind of player that most managers van win pennants with. The turning point in affairs for the basebali vnlayer, seems to be about reached when, under the seeming pro- tection of an tron-clad contract, he tries to disregard obligations that he should feel and respect even without tlhe compelling force of a legal doc- ument. | A sense of mutual obligation must exist or all contracts are futile. + > A Rose by Any Other Name— Etc.

Several seasons ago when Lou Crig- er came to St. Louis, he told a Post- Dispatch reporter that he had Cobb’s angora lassoed and tied and that the Detroit demon would be lucky to steal second base once during the season. The very first game Criger Played against Ty was at Detroit. Tyrus didn’t do a thing but steal second, third and home, winning the game for the Tys, Every time the clubs met thereafter Tyrus took especial delight in show- ing up the club and Criger. He broke Lou’s courage and the backbone of the Browns, at the same time. = As to One Benny Kauff. A” now comes one Benjamin Kauff back to the Federal League. If we believe a previous statement of Benny’s, his return to the outlaws has saved Ty Cobb from oblivion.. For Benny, when he was about to go to the Giants. stated that as member of the New York club he “would make the baseball world for- get Cobb.” Forgive him, men. He knows not what he says. Benny is a fast little piece, but his conversation leads to the suspicion that his think-tank was built in Lima, where the beans come from, It takes more than a batting average and a base-stealing rec- ord to be a Cobb. . + + Mr. Rickard Has It Right. — RICKARD, back from the Pampas of Argentina, halted long enough in his progress through the United States to tell a newspaper interviewer the “never again” stuff for him, in the matter of fight pro- motion. “Its 90 per cent of the profit and no risks, for the fighter, and 10 per cent and all the losses for | | For Once We’re With the Magnate.

There are more boobs running fight clubs and promoting prize fights than there are come-ons on Broadway” is the substance of his contention. It appears to be the truth. None of the promoting gentry is making any money, but the fighters are going right ahead demanding and getting big coin. J * * The Coliseum Athletic Club has staged good fights here, as have its predecessors; but not one promoter got out of the game ahead of it. 7 . . No Money in Fight Clubs. VEN in the old days before the “eet-rick-quick” fever spread to the boxers, a live-wire like Charley Haughton, staging good shows at the West End Club, got away with but littie coin. Tommy Sullivan is today holding our to the last ditch with his Future City A. C:; but his moneyed backers have all withdrawn from the con- cern, scared. The big fight in Cuba was all for Jack Johnson and the grafters. Jess Willard got a very few thousands out of it for months of work and what the moneyed backers received is com- posed largely of hope and theatrical contracts. The last, incidentally, ap- pear to be worth little, to judge from the crowds that have stayed away from Jess’ appearances. HE same condition will apply to baseball, shortly. The demands of the player will put the promoters out of business. Then watch the toss- ers get in line for anything from a ham sandwich to a $ bill, as compen- sation. The absurd payments made to ball plavers have just about kicked in the backbone of the game, right now. If you don't believe it ask John McGraw what his iron-clad contract payroll is today. i “ ‘ From the School of Experience. =o" where Mayor Kiel is going to pitch the “initial ball” again.

Sure—Bank Rolls. wr the rise of the young Irish heavyweight to near-title alti- tude, that celebrated partnership Cof- fey and Rolls should be stronger than ever before. 2 More Power to John Anderson. They used to laugh at the John An- dersons of baseball for getting a ham- merlock on every piece of coin earned in baseball. But it’s John and hia kind that have the last laugh. Not sO many months ago we read where John had an automobile. In the old days the merry, myster- ing player had a lot of bar-fly friends that slipped him the “good fellow’ stuff—-and left him without resources late in life. If the roster of the old time Brown- ies were gone over, it would be found that many of them, includine their one-time owner. Chris von der Ahe, had been forced to go the “benefit” route, thanks to care-free financial! habits. « — = LL of which reminds one that an- other old time player is on the ropes, Jack Crooks, one time known as “king of the second basemen.” Twenty-five years ago Jack was in his prime and was esteemed one of the stars of the game. That he ia down today is, however, the result of bad physical condition, rather than improvidence in his ball-playing days In Jack’s time they didn't pay bank presidents’ salaries. Jack has become so fleshy that he is unable to get about. His friends say he weighs over 300 pounds, making it impossi- ble for him to get around as a sales- man, Friends are arranging a benefit for him. He has a wife and adopted child to care for. « ° .

Seaman * COLE “8” GIVEN HARD TEST ON LOCAL HILLS A test was made Friday by the new Cole 8 to demonstrate its flexibility and latitude, which was a great suc- cess. The car was driven by E. W. Arbogast, of the Cole-Arbogast Co.. St. Louis agents for the Cole, and several newspaper men were observ- crs. The car was driven to O'Fallon Park ard sent up the south hill from Broadway. The car was put into high sear and the lever never moved from that and it went up this difficult hill without .a flutter and was mak- ing 23 miles an hour at the top of the hill, The party was then driven to the road between Calvary and Bellefon- taine cemeteries and went up the hill from Broadway from a standing start. This is one of the most difficult hills in St. Louis, because it is impossible to begin the hill at any speed. At the top of the hill the Cole 8 was easily making 12 miles an hour. The road was wet and slippery. The car was then driven downtown into the heavy traffic district and throttled down to two miles an hour in high gear. Several stops were found necessary because of traffic conditions, but in each instance the car was started up again with the sear in high speed.

Place and to Be TWO MEN OPPOSE PLAN Frank O. Watts and Walker Hill Hold That It Will Depreciate Value of Homes. Plans are taking form for the sub- division and improvement of the Catlin tract in a manner that will completely change its aspect: The project contem- Plates the construction of a street, to a continuation of West- through the north side to be virtually moreland place, of the tract from Untoh boulevard Skinker road, the Rosedale avenue, the principal north- and extension of south street of Washington Heights, south to Forest Park. Lindell drive, on which the tract now fronts, with a 600-foot depth, will- be preserved as the principal street-in the subdivision, although the execution of the plan will reduce the depth two- thirds or more. Frank O. Watts, president of the Third National Bank, and Walker Hill, president of the Mechanics- American National Bank, have erect- ed homes on the Catlin tract, each house cccupying a lot 100x600 feet. With the exception of Watts and Hill, all the lot holders are enthusiastic over the subdivision plans. While it is admitted that the extension of Rosedale avenue across the tract will be of great advantage, the subdivision plans involving the introduction of another longitudinal street and the reduction of a _ 600- foot depth, it is declared, would de- tract from the exclusive character of the property. Watts Demands Rebate. Wiatts, it is said, will not surren- der to the subdivision promoters un- less he is allowed 50 per cent of the value of his house and lot, the origi- nal cost of which was $125,000, ag a provision against depreciation as a result of the proposed conversion. Claude E. Vrooman, owner of the St. Regis Apartments, recently acquired three lots in the Catlin tract as sites for three houses, the aggregate cost of which will be $75,000. The sites, which are 100x600 feet each, face Lindell drive. and are located just west of the homes of Watts and Hill. The tract, which lies on the north side of Lindell drive and of Forest Park, and which extends from Union avenue to Skinker road, was purchased sev- eral years ago by a syndicate of St. Louis millionaires. With Lindell drive as its frontage, the tract was divided into 67 lots, all of which are 100x600 feet deep, with the exception of the corners which range from 125 to 36 feet front. Holders of the Lots. dren, the lots were distributed among members of the syndicate at the rate of $200 a front foot or $20,000 a lot. The present owners, all of whom, with one or two exceptions comprised the origi- nal syndicate, include: W. h. Bixby, Frank A. Ruf, Mina Gehner, Daniel Catlin, John C. Rob- erts, Edward A. Faust, D. R. Francis, Hollwood R. & Inv. Co. (Sexton), Nancy M. Bates, Julia W. Walsh, Murray A. Carleton, W. E. Hughes, Paul Brown, Eliz. W. Roberts, L. .D. Dozier Estate, John Scullin, A. V. Reyburn, E. 8. Roberts, Festus J. Wade, James Campbell Estate, Loren- zo E. Anderson, P. C. and Emily C. Maffitt, Excelsior Realty Co., Han- ford Crawford, Josephine Carr, Walk- er Hill, Josephine K. Carr and Peyton Carr. As the names on the plat show, Bixby, Catlin, Ruf, the Campbell Es- tate, Hughes and Scullin own several lots apiece. Means Profit to Owners. The failure of the owners to build homes on the lots was not due, it is said, to a dearth of funds, but to the profits awaiting them in the subdivision of the tract. The tract, according to the proposed subdivision, could be divided into approximately 200 lots of 100 feet euch, with depths of 160 to 100 feet, the former fronting on the north and south side of the proposed longitudinal street, or Westmoreland place, and the latter on Lindell drive, thus permitting the tract to be disposed of at a substantial advance over the original price, accord- ing to real estate men. The Catlin tract was owned originally by Daniel Catlin who disposed of it about 15 years ago to a ayndicate of which Thomas Wright, vice-president of the Third National Bank, was the dominant spirit, for $1,000,000. The sale was negotiated by Charles H. Bailey. In turn the Wright syndicate disposed of the property to the present owners. The proposed extension of Rosedale avenue, which now runs from Delmar to Berlin avenue and which is the prin- cipal north and south street west of River des Peres in Washington Heights, ig looked forward to by residents of that locality. + ee Al.

ENLARGES OFFICE SPACE UNDER BIG SELLING DEAL A selling arrangement has been per- fected under which 26 coal mines on the Tllinois Central railroad will market their product through the Kolb Coal Co. of St. Louis, whose offices are in the Mermod & Jaccard building. A large amount of additional office space was taken yesterday by P. M. Hucke, gen- eral manager of the Kolb Co, to pre- pare for taking care of the enlarged volume of business which will be con- centrated in the hands of that company. According to fe statement made yes- terday by Hucke, the public need have no fear of extortion being practiced in the matter of coal prices, as the only result of the new selling method will be a more systematic and economical delivery of the product of these mines. The McNair & Harris Realty Co stated yesterday that the Mermod @& Jaccard building has long been the headquarters for many important coal mining companies, and it is belleved that the expansion of the Kolb Coal Co. will make it still more sought after for this purpose The MeNatir & number of new leases tn Jaceard buildine with Mo.;: Tuesday, Des Moines, Friday, Chillicothe, Wednesday, Burlington, Io.; Harrie Co. report a the prospect of closing Niemann Out After ltIliness.

POULTRY WORLD LO0009 COCNINIGNIGOIGGHOCGIHIH 00000000 imple Trap Nest That Tells Which Hens Are Best Lavers LS ee F you want to know which females | are the best layers, the trap nest tells you. If you are also breed- ing for increased egg production you will want to raise stock from eggs from the best laving hens. It is especially im- portant, in order to produce a superior strain of layers, that the male at the head of the pen be from a heavy lay- ing hen. This is true, first, because it is believed by many that the male has more to do with passing on ¢gé- laying performance than the female, and, second, for the familiar reasons that the male is “half the flock.” If your females are similarly bred, s0 much the better. The trap nest enables you to weed out the loafers, the hens that lay so few eggs that they do not pay for their keep. To the fancier the trap nest is of great value. He has a hen that he val- ues highly. The breeder would like to be able to know which chicks are hatched from this hen’s eggs. The trap nest solves the problem. Some breed- ers go so far as to know the sire and dam of every chick hatched. The trap nest does entail time and labor. Sometimes the breeder for egg production does not use the trap nest except for a limited time, perhaps in the early spring when egg production is heavy. He selects at this time the hens he wants to keep, and the infe- rior hens he discards. The accompanying trap nest illustra- tion is one devised for use at the Maine Experiment Station of the Uni- versity of Maine at Orono. It is one of the simplest we have seen, and can be made by almost anyone. It is claimed by the Maine station that the trap nest here described has the fol- lowing advantages: 1. Certainty and precision of operation; 2 Greater sim- plicity of construction with less tend- ency to get out of order and work bad- ly; 8. Saving of labor in resetting the nest after use. Nest a Boxlike Structare. The nest is a boxlike structure, with- out front, end or cover, #% inches long, 13 inches wide and 16 inches deep, inside measure. A division board with a circu- lar opening 7% inches in diameter is placed across the box 12 inches from the rear and 15 inches from the front end. Instead of having the partition between the two parts of the nest made with a circular hole, it is practicable to have a straight board partition extending up 6 tnches from the bottom, as shown in figure 18. The rear section is the nest proper. The front portion of the nest has no fixed bottom. Instead, there is a mov- able bottom or treadle which is hanged at the back end (figure 18). To this treadle is hinged the door of the nest. The treadle is made of half-inch pine stuff, with 1%-inch hardwood cleats at each end to hold the screws which fasten the hinges. It is 12 inches wide and 12% inches long. Across its upper face just behind the hinges holding the door, is nailed a pine strip 4 inches wide, beveled on both sides, as shown in fig- ures 19 and 20. The door of the nest is not solid, but is an open frame, to the inner side of which Its fastened (with staples) a rectangular piece of %-inch mesh galvanized screening (dimensions 8 by 8 inches). The sides of the door are strips of %-inch beech stuff 12 inches long and 1% inches wide, halved at the ends to join to the top and bottom of the door. The top of the door is a strip of hardwood 13 inches long ani 1% inches wide, halved in 2% inches from each end. The projecting ends of this top strip serve as stops for the door when it closes. The bottom of the door is a hardwood strip 10% inches by 4 inches. The side strips are fitted into the ends of this bottom strip in such way as to project slightly (about 1-32 inch) above the front surface of that strip, for a reason which will be appar- ent. When the nest Is open the door ex- tends horizontally in front. In this po- sition the side strips of the door rest on a strip of beech 4% inches wide, bev- eled on the tnner corner, which extends across the front of the nest. This strip is nalled to the top «f a board 4 inches wide, which forms the front of the nest box proper. To the bottom of this is nailed a strip 2 inches wide, into which are set two 4-Inch spikes from which the heads have been cut. The treadle rests on these spikes when the nest is closed. The hinges used in fastening the treadle and door are narrow 28-inch galvanized butts with brass pins, made to work very easily. It is necessary to use hinges which will not rust. Operation Easy and Simple. The manner in which the nest oper- ates will be clear from an examina- of figures 19 and 2%, which show a sample nest with one side removed to show the [Inside.

TRAP NEST. toward the dark back of the nest’ When she passes the point where the door is hinged to the treadle her weight on the treadle causes it to drop, This at the same time pulls the door up behind her. It ts then impos- sible for the hen to get out of the nest till the attendant lifts door and treadie and resets it. All bearing surfaces are made of beech because of the well-known property of this wood to take on a highly polished surface with wear. The trap nestg at Orono are not made with covers because they are used In tiers and slide in and out like drawers. They can be carried away for cleaning when necessary. Four nests in a pen accommodate 20 hens by the attendant going through the pens once an hour, or a little oftener, during that part of the day when the hens are busiest. Earlier and later in the day his visits are not so frequent. | The hens must all have leg bands in order to identify them. A number of different kinds are on the market. ¥ & 4 The double box with the nest in the, “ rear is necessary. When a hen hag laid an egg and desires to leave the nest, she steps out into the space and remains there until she is released. With only one section she would be likely to crush her egg by stepping upon it, and thus learn the pernicious habit of egg eating. To remove a hen, the nest is pulled par’ Way out, and as it has no cover sh ig reaifly caught, the number on her leg band is noted and the proper en- try mede on the reocrd sheet. —— -— Poultry Problems Solved April Laying Recoré, I am feeding a vaniety of rations to my flock. I am having better results than anyone else in the neighborhood. I have 11 Plymouth Rock hens. From April 1 to May 1 they laid 154 eggs. Is this an extra good record?—A. C. P., Hanover Heights, Mo. The record is not extra good for the month of April, the best laying season of the year. It is 14 eggs per hen or less than an egg every other day per hen. It js not a bad record particularly, but it could not be called especially good. Care in Use ef Copperas. I have White and Brown ing well. I give them copperas once or twice a week in their drinking water. [ feed them bone meal twice a week ~~ red pepper once a week. I feed then? other grain feeds. Does plenty of egg shell harm them? The eggs they pro- duce have a thin crust on the butt ends. | The hen that lays this sort of an eget lays three or four of them and then dies without showing signs of sickness. Can you give me any heip?-—O. F. G. I do not believe you have succeeded in telling me what is the trouble. I do not think the eggs you speak of have anything to do with your trouble. Egg shells will not harm the hens. At least I never heard of their harming hens. f do not think the red pepper once a week has any value. You do not say how much copperas you put in the water, Perhaps you are giving too much. | should cut it out altogether. Lack of moisture in means tough shells and dead chicks at hatching time.

Young chicks may be fed any time after they are 36 to 48 hours old. The first feed may contain hard-boiled eggs, johnnycake (one dozen infertile eggs to 10 pounds of corn meal), add- ing enough milk to make a pasty mass, and one tablespoonful of baking soda, stalé bread, pinhead oatmeal or rolled oats. Dry bread crumbs or rolled oats may be mixed with hard-boiled eggs, making about one-fourth of the mixture eges. Feed the bread crumbs, rolled oats or johnnycake mixtures five times dally for the first week, then gradually substitute for one or two feeds of the mixture finely cracked grains of equal parts by weight of cracked wheat, eracked oorn and pinhead oatmeal or hulled oats, to which about 2 per cent charcoal, millet or rape seed may be added. A commercial chick feed may be substituted if desired. The above ration can be fed until the chicks are 2 weeks old, when they should be placed on grain and a dry or wet mash mixture. Mashes mixed with milk dre of considerable value in giving the chickens a good start in life, but the mixture should be fed in a crumbly mass and not in a sloppy con- dition. As soon as the chickens will eat whole wheat, cracked corn and other grains, the small-sized chick feed can be eliminated. In addition the chick- a. hastened if they en sour milk, skim milk or but- feruiiiie to drink. Poultry Paragraphs. Sitting hens like a quiet, secluded place for their three weeks’ work of incubation. See that dogs, cats, children and other disturbers are kept away from them. Fowils can as readily be trained to come for a clear, far-reaching call as for the usual “chick-chick,” which does net sound far. It is only necessary tv feed them to such a call te have them used to it. It ie safest to take a bird away from the flock as soon as it shows signs of iliness. One sick bird can soon infect a whole flock. Smooth roosting poles are more easily kept clean and free from vermin than those with cracks or rough surfaces. One object to sroppy feed is that it gives disease a chance to spread once ay it it gets started.

The lack of this quality in parent stock js one of the great limiting factors in poul- try raising. There are a number of out- ward indications’ of good vitality that may be relied on. Good suggestions siong this line are offered by H. A. Bittenbender of the Iowa State College at Ames. The marks of strong vitality he gives are as follows: A head that is short, broad, deep and compact. An eye that is bright, full, clear, round and prominent. A beak that is short, broad and well curved. Comb and wattles that are well developed and fiery red. A body that is well jointed, compact and stout, with a long, broad back; a breast that is deep, broad. thickly fleshed, and a keel running well back. The capacity should be large, especial- ly in a hen which needs room to devel- op a digestive and reproductive system capable of manufacturing many eges. A strong bird generally stands with shanks squarely under its body, and wide apart at the knee joints. Its toe- naila are usually worn broad and fiat across the point, evidencing great ac- tivity. ~The marks of low vitality are the op- posite of those of strength. The head is long, flat, sunken and narrow. The eye is small and dull. The comb and wat- tles are poorly developed or pale. The body is often loogely jointed with knee joints close together. The breast is nar- row, shallow and poorly fleshed. Long, pointed toe-nails indicate less activity.

Only Miracle Can Avert War, Press Asserts. ROME, May 8.—The date for the con- vening of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies has been postponed by royal MAYOR'S QUESTION STUMPS HEAD OF FFIGIENCY BOARD Chairman Rogers Is Unable to Tell the Executive Where Portis Avenue Is. Mayor Kiel stumped Chairman Rogers of the Efficiency Board in a conference yesterday over the severity of the ex- aminations framed by the board, by asking him, as a question typical of the local civil service: ‘“‘Where is Portis avenue ?’’ “I confess I have no idea,” Rogers. “Well, neither had I until I rode over it last night,” said the Mayor, “and yet the Efficency Board would not con- sider it a proper answer for a candidate to say he would determine that by con- sulting a city map.” Portis avenue extends north and south from 4400 Arsenal street to 41C0 Connecti- cut street. The Mayor was led to examine Rog- ers by a discussion of questions recently put to 102 candidates for deputy asses- sorships, in which examination eight of 11 incumbents failed to qualify for the list of 20 from which Assessor Schramm will select his'new corps. replied ‘— “ Ce Sy Fa] _ a0 ” _ " > x * SUNDAY MORNING, MAY 9, 1915. sessor, the Mayor asked Chairman Rogers and Chief Examiner Cullen of the Efficiency Board to produce the ex- amination papers and demonstrate that no errors in grading were responsible for the failure of the eight deputy assessors. In the course of the confer- ence Mayor Kiel thought he discovered an eroneous marking. The rébly'to a quesiton, ‘“‘at what ap- proximate valuation would you assess a department store building, per cubic foot?” a candidate had written, “‘from %3 to 40 cents.’”’ “Now, what 1s wrong with that an- swer?’’ queried the Mayor. ‘"The board considered the correct an- swer to be 13 cents,”’ replied Examiner Cullen, “‘and we gave credit to candi- dates as their reply approached this figure.’’ “Well, what authority did you have for assuming 13 cents a cubic foot was right?’ asked the Mayor. The chief examiner replied that he had been guided by a report of the Wiscon- sin Tax Commission, based on statistics gathered in many places. Would Have Made Same Answer. “T guess I would have made zero on!’ that myself, by making the same answer as this candidate,’’ sai€ the Mayor. “I don’t think that either of the three big- gest department store buildings in St. Louis were constructed for less than twice 13 cents. I dgn’t know anything about this Wisconsin Tax Commission, but I would consult Kidder’s Manual to get such an estimate. “I do not Know a practical builder in St. Louis who carries around in his head such figures. They all expect .to con- sult Kidder’s Manual to get such in- formation, and I think it ought to be a perfect answer for an applicant to say US; SOLDIER IN UNIFORM 1S SHOT: 5 A BURGLAR Companion, a Printer, With Quantity of Loot Captured \ by Policeman.

Y., May 8—A jury this afternoon, after short delibera- tion, acquitted Mrs. Florence C. Car- man, on trial for the second time charged with murdering Mrs, Louise Bailey in Dr. Carman’s office at Free- port, the night of June 20, last. The case went to the jury at 4:20 this afternoon. The jury was agreed on the first ballot and the verdict was returned at 5:32 o’clock, one hour and 12 min- utes after the jury had retired. Mrs. Carman, who had been de- pressed and apparently extremely anxioug all day, brightened as Justice Blackmar delivered his charge, an: beamed with happiness when the ver- dict was announced. She shook hands with all the jurors and left after a few minutes with her husband for their home in Freeport. In his’ charge to the jury Justice Blackmar said that the i state's Celia Coleman, a negro maid in the case centered on the testimony of come to her room early the next morning and expressed re- pentance for having “killed that poor woman.” In his charge Justice Black- mar said: “It has been obviously shown that she (Cella Coleman) was careless of the truth, but that is not conclusive.

The Chinese then offered a brief blanket acceptance, but the Japancse again ob- jccted, requiring instead a categorical ac- ceptance, including a sypecific under- stendiny for a future discussion of the articles of group five. This is the group that China declinen to consider und the discussion of which the excep- tion the demand bearinsy on Fu-Kien sruvines, Japan had suspended in he- uitimatum. The Japanese uliimatuir makes an im- purtant point of Japan’s irtention to re- store Kiauchau to China. The ultima- fum refers to the sacrifices made by Japan in the capture of Tsingtau, but makes no mention of Great Britain's participation in this operation or of her ally’s rizht to participate in the adjudi- cution. With the exception of an unorgan- fzed boycott there has been no move- ment against the Japanese residents in China and there is no report of any attack on the Japanese.

Deputy Cirmeni today expressed the opinion that the action of the Govern- ment indicated that a rupture of nego- tiations with Austria was not only cer- tain but imminént, and the belief is ex- pressed in diplomatic circles that the Italian Government—in view of the post- ponement of the date for convening Parliament—desires to cénfront Parlia- ment with an accomplished fact. TELEGRAPH STRIKE THREAT ENDS IN A COMPROMISE ul. 8S. Commissioner of Conciliation for the Second Time Averts Labor Trouble Here. The second threat of a strike on the part of telegraph operators employed by the Western Union Co. was compro- mised yesterday, and officials of the company state that they believe there is no further danger of trouble. W. F. Blackman, Commissioner of Concilia- tion of the United State Department of Labor, brought about the second com- promise and Sylvester Konenkamp, na- tional organizer for the union, said that the men have agreed to give the terms suggested a trial. Two months ago a strike was threat- ened because 44 union operators were 3 Rooms discharged.

Penrhyn Stanlaws, the artist, declares they are the most beautiful eyes he ever saw.

Miss Young won first prize, receivin 453,000 votes—which was 5000 more than the ballots for Miss Mary Pickfor whose salary is said to be $100,000 a vear. Although Miss Young may say that her eyes are her fortune, she is by no regular means deficient in other physical attractions.

Did she know you'd lost your work and vour salary? She did? And of course vou went to see her—well, well go on, tell we about it, don't be so derned monosvilabic and secretive. Bob, that is sure Some Girl! And I’m glad I’m the guy who advised you to go easy about getting peeved witb her over that busted date some time ago. {f you’d quit then and gone off with- out learning the actual facts of the case, you’d never have had this oppor- tunity to diseover what a Regular Feilow a girl can be. I don’t blame you for goieg arownd with a face like a Cheshire cat. Any man ought to be as proud and pleased as Punch to have a girl friend who’s leyal and generous enough to want to help him in time of trouble. And it’s all the finer when you know that she isn’t earning much and that » loan like she offered you is just about all ber fortune. Of course you didn’t take it, but I hope you made ber understand how much of a bit her proposition made with youf winess to have a friend like that, masculine or feminine, though, cynic 1 the contrary notwithstanding, they’re not so few in this good old work.

She’d be a Good Sport, which is about the best equipment for happiness and success that anybody can poseess. It’s fin ead al a Torrens T : Torrens system of land reg- istration has for ‘a number of years been generally recog- nized by members of the legal profes- sion as the ideal solution for the com- plicated system’ of transferring real estate titles which now exists in Mis- souri and several other states. The Torrens Land Law was first enacted in 185% in South Australia at the instance of Sir Robert Torrens, at that time Premier of South Australia. Here is the author's own definition of the law: ‘The person or persons in whom singly or collectively the fee simple is vested, either by law or in equity, may aj ply to have the land placed on the register of titles. The applications are submitted for examination to a barrister and to, a conveyancer, .< who are styled ‘examiners of title.” | ‘ ‘“These gentlemen report to the register: ‘First, whether the description of the land is definite and clear ; ‘‘Second, is the applicant in undisputed possession of the property ? ‘Third, does he appear in equity and justice rightfully en- titled thereto? and ‘“Fourth, does he produce such evidence of title as leads to the conclusion that no other person is in position to succeed against him in an action for ejection?’ When all these questions are thoroughly investigated and there appears to be no reason to doubt that the applicant’s title is clear, his land is registered. These requirements have been varied to some extent by the various states that have adopted the system, but the general plan has remained unchanged. When.a piece of property is registered the applicant pays a small premium into a fund which is main-~ tained to pay any future just claims which may be made against the property, but in such cases the property would remain in the hands of the registered owner. This fee is small, a fraction of one per cent of the value of the property. One of the advantages that has been poimted out is that the small property owner pays in proportion to the value of his prop- erty, as does also the owner of a large estate. Under the present system in Missouri the expense of investigating the title to a small piece of preperty is as great as in the case of a large tract. linder the Torrens system, on the page in the register upon which a piece of property is recorded, is inscribed every mortgage and lien bearing upon the property. When the property is sold or otherwise transferred, the seller and buyer go to the registrar’s office, the register is opened at the page on which the property is ‘entered, and the parties to the transaction have at once before them its actual condition. The sale is recorded on the page and the property placed in the name of the new purchaser. The same process is followed if the owner wishes to borrow Berton Berton Braley is a Westerner whose widely known magazine work has been compared to the writings of O. Henry. He says what he means and Hence the wholesome tang of these everyday talks in the vernacular to the young man of today, CONCERNING FRIENDSHIP ee Braley For the Good Sport plans the game and plays it fair, makes the best of life as it is and tries to make it better, asks no odds, ex- pects no favors, takes the bumps and the jolts and the blows bravely, and never quits while lafe endures. And these are all qualities which make marriage a success. In fact it seems to me that two-thirds of the marriages which fail, fail because the parties concerned have been bum sports about it. Being a Good Sport, then, is about the first requisite. Beauty is not necessary, though desirable. It he!ps a lot to have your wife easy to gaze upon. I take it by the expression you're wear- ing just now that this girl is a Looker. Fine! And being a working girl makes it finer yet. Of course there’s reams of bunk written and spoken about how much more saving and economical and all that a working girl is, ‘‘ because she kuows What it is to toil, and all about the value of money.’’ lLozieally that ought to hold, but practically it doesn’t, because working girls are just as likely to be exiravegani sod spendthrift as girls woo don’t work. Yet | think the working girl makes a better wife because she more nearly understands a man’s point of view and is more likely to be sympa- thetic to his interests aud his Whsiness. She talks his language. Soe you grab tue yirl, if you ean. And don’t give me any of this ‘‘He travels the fastest who travels alone’’ talk either. A good wife helps and not hinders a man, a good wife boosts and—- Whoa, Ebenezer! you’re running away. When I start off on this mar- riage thing I forget to stop. But you know how lucky I was when | got Mary to fall for me, and yor’!l forgive my boyish enthusiasm. What? You’vs thought vou’d make a try for that gir] when you Janded a job again? Good boy--but get the job first. at et wt Land Registry System Made Clear A series of real estate frauds recently un- earthed in St. Louis has called public attention to the Torrens system of land reg- istration—a simple and effective method developed in Australia half a century ago for preventing the possibility of traffic in bogus deeds of trust. Here is an exposition which will be of interest to all owners of real estate and investors in mortgages. money on the property. This makes it much easier to obtain real estate loaus, it is said, because the work of looking up the title which now often requires weeks and even months ean be accom- plished in a few minutes. ‘Thus, it is pointed out, if a business man needed to borrow money to meet an unex- pected emergency he could obtain it upon real estate with as little delay as upon bonds, securities or other personal property. A Southern attorney, in an article written recently, advocating that his state adopt the Torrens system, called attentidd to two instances in his own-practice as illustrations of the inefficiency of the old system. A client was asked to lend some monev, the loan.to be secured by mortgage of real estate. The attorney examined the title, called for nonzlienation and mortgage certificates, and, as every- < thing was clear, approved the title. When the loan became due it developed that the mortgagor was not the owner of the property at the time he mortgaged it. He had sold it years before and the deed of sale was recorded, but the official whose duty it was to keep the register had failed to index the deed, and the official who succeeded him an@ who issued the nonalienation certificate had failed to find the alienation. After much litigation the of- ficial was held responsible and his bondsman foreed to pay the amount of the loan. Had this official's term expired before the error was found, and his bondsman been released from hability, the party who loaned the money would have lost it. The same lawyer tells of another ease which was even more complicated. He examined the ‘title to a plantation which was described in terms of certain halves and quarters in various sec- tions of a given township and range. He declared the title satis- factory, as he says several title examiners had done before him. The land had been aequired from the Federal Government in 1848. It was a well-timbered swamp and until of reeent years had been considered of small value. It had never been feneed and none of the several successive owners had taken actual possession. The man who supposed he owned the tract found that other persons were cutting timber on it. When he complained they told him that they owned the property. An investigation showed that they held what seemed to be a perfectly good title to the land. Kach transfer had been approved by competent lawyers. The records were both clear and might have gone on for years to come had neither party attempted to take actual possession of the land. The same lawyer might easily have approved both titles without recognizing from the descriptions that they were for the same property. Of course such conditions neu in more or less litigation whieh is costly to both parties, and although each may be perfectly honest in supposing that he is the lawful owner of the land, one or the other is certain to lose. neta a sent et mt oun ype, seca ALI NI CEA s Senet Nt ’ ; SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST, LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MAY 9, 1915, a ”~ | EE Ot A Nl ORL eA aaa owt! «a eee. mame a pe i tp he De a, _ ——_—__ * Re nm ig 0 er: OR A SA ET A MO ES EN!

LONDON'S ‘B Amazing charge made that George J. Smith drowned three brides in their baths, and played lively tunes on organ after murdering the third -- His death profits named as $16,- 000—Testified at three coro- ner sinquests Without arousing Suspicion — Trial shared stage of public interest with war HE unknown author of the ancient tale of “Bluebeard” must have been a gifted psychologist. He had a sure insight into the sort of theme which is perennially fascinating to the human mind. This fact has just been put to the severest test. London, in the throes of a war in which the life of the British Empire is at stake, nevertheless has hung absorbed upon every detail of a “‘modern Blue- beard” case, which is the capital's most recent “cause celebre.” Plain George Joseph Smith for several weeks re- ceived more space in the London newspapers—and as this is written the evidence is not yet complete—than lord Kitchener and Admiral Sir John Fisher command- ed together. More columns of type were accorded to him than to the dramatic attempt of the allies to force the Dardanelles and redeem Constantinople from the Turk. More fashionable women thronged to his trial in sordid Bow street than have probably attended most of the meetings for the promotion of recruiting. He had the distinction, so far as London was concerned, of com- pelling the greatest war in history to share the stage with him. Whv? Because George Joseph Smith was on trial for his life on charges of murdering three of the six women he is said to have married. Each of the three ‘ % Oty seter Le spettesiges 2 a 2 lf | _ BERDANIERCS= iWNaitabad ) baal TA A woman in an undertaker’s office testified that Smith, in making arrangements for Miss Lofty’s funeral, haggled over the price of a grave until he reduced it from $20 to $2.25, the cost of burying a person in the same grave with a dozen other adults; and that he quar- reled with the undertaker until he reduced the price of a casket from $35 to $30, and insisted that this sum must also include the cost of the grave. The prisoner turned upon the prosecutor and shouted. “You are a manufacturer of criminals! By teaching women to tell such lies you are a manufacturer of crim- inals, and you are a criminal to say that I mur- dered her!”’ Smith’s career, as outlined by the attorney for the crown, was amazing for the power of fascination which he exercised over women, and the cold-blooded daring with which he was alleged to have committed the mur- respondence, the uncle sent a check for $650, represent- ing income which Miss Mundy had permitted to ac- cumulate. 7 Smith persuaded her to have the check cashed in gold and give the money to him. As soon as he had the gold, about two weeks after the marriage, he deserted his wife, leaving her penniless in a boarding house, with a letter threatening her and her relatives with disgrace and police court proceedings if she attempted to pursue him. She did not see him again for 18 months. On March 14, 1912, he suddenly presented himself to her at We-ton- super-Mare. “Nothing better shows the power and in- fluence he had over her,’ said the prosecutor, ‘thar that absolutely in a moment she was entirely reconcilca to him and had forgotten her desertion and the theft of her money. She was doting upon him again as her loving husband.” They found lodgings in was drowned in her bath. In each instance a Coroner’s jury returned a verdict of “death by misadventure,” which is the British way of describing accidental death. In the first two cases Smith obtained $15,000 through the deaths of his wives, be- sides $1170 which he stole or obtained from them be- fore they died. In the last case he was about to collect $3500 insurance when his arrest for falsifying a mar- riage record led to a dis- covery of the tragic coin- cidence under which the three women met. their ends. Because of this fact, his trial was nicknamed the the fatal house at &0 High street, Herne Bay. In a short time Smith per- suaded Miss Mundy to go with him before a_e s0- licitor, who was in- structed to prepare mu- tual wills, she leaving ev- erything to him and he leaving everything to her. While the wills were be- ing prepared, Smith pur: chased an iron bathtub:for $10 and had it installed at his lodgings, which had ‘20 bath. It had no fit- tings or water taps, and was just a bare bath standing on the floor of the room. To fill it, water had to be carried upstairs. “Brides in Bath” murder case. Smith's marital record, according to the _ prosecu- tion, was as follows: Jan. 17, 1898—Under the name of George Oliver Lodge, he married Beatrice Thornhill at St. Matthew's Church, Leicester. July 30, 1909—Under his own name, he married Kdith Mabel Pegler, at Bristol. Aug. 26, 1910—Under the name of Henry Williams, he married Beatrice Constance Annie Mundy, at the Weymouth Registry Office. Nov. 4, 1913—Under his own name, he married Alice Burnham, at the Portsmouth Registry Office. Sept. 15, 1914—Under the name of Oliver Charles James, he married Alice Beatrice Reavil, at the Woolwich Registry Office. Dec. 17, 1914—Under the name of John Lloyd, he married Margaret Elizabeth Lofty, at the Bath Registry Office. The defendant was accused by the Crown of the fol- lowing. murders: Beatrice Mundy, at 80 High street, Herne Bay, on July 18, 1912, two years after their marriage. Alice Burnham, at Regent road, Blackpool, ou Dec. 12, 1913, five weeks after their marriage. Elizabeth Lofty, at 14 Bismarck road, Highgate, on Dec. 18, 1914, the next day after their marriaze. . Mrs. Lodge, as she thought her name was, the first wife, went from Canada to London to con/ront her husband at the trial. Miss Reavil, the fifth wife, did not appear in court, but was stated by the prosecution to be still living. Miss Pegler seemed the prisoner's favorite, for the evidence showed. that he-resided with her during the intervals between his other matrimonial adventures. She is still living. . Smith was- described as being 43 years old, foppish in dress, of middle height and medium weight, with dark hair thickly streaked with gray, and with a ruddy, complexion, which paled to white with rage on the fre- quent occasions when he interrupted witnesses in court who were testifying against him, to denounce them as “liars’ and “criminals.” Such liberty on the part of a defendant is unheard of in American courts, but the Magistrate and Smith’s own attorney were unable to quell his outbursts. He became hysterical with anger when the landlady from whom he rented a room on the day he married Miss Lofty testified that immediately after murder- ine her, as the prosecution declared, he went down- stairs and for several minutes played lively tunes on the Smith acquired. organ. “That's a lie!” the prisoner shrieked. stop in my cell than listen to this.” SUNDAY MAGAZINE--ST.

His first victim, it was asserted, was Miss Mundy, who, when he met her in 1910, was a spinster, 33 years old, who had always enjoyed perfect health. She was the daughter of a banker in Wiltshire, who, on his death, left her stocks and shares amounting to $12,500, affording her an annual income of $500. She was rather eccentric in her habits, and instead of residing with her relatives, lived in various boarding houses. The ad- ministration of her property was left to her uncle and brother. Without any warning to her relatives, she wrote them on Aug. 26, 1910, that she had been marrie” that day to “Mr. Henry Williams.” Three days late her husband wrote to her uncle suggesting that al her money be sent to him.

On July 10, five days after the bath was installed and after Miss Mundy had executed a will in her husband’s favor, Smith called upon a physician in the neighbor- hood and told him his wife had had a fit. The doctor prescribed medicine. Two days later the doctor was summoned to the house by Smith, who told him his wife had had another fit. When the physician found no signs of a seizure, Smith told him the attack had passed away before he arrived. On the next morning, July 13, Smith sent a note to the physician, saying: “Do come at once. I am afraid my wife is dead.’ The physician found her lying in the bathtub with her head submerged. She was dead of suffocation by drowning. There were no bruises upon the body, and it was supposed that she had suffered a fit while in the bath. Smith’s testimony and that of the physician, who sus- pected nothing, caused a Coraner’s jury to return a verdict of “accidental drowning, while in an epileptic fit.” This was in spite of testimony by Miss Mundy’s relatives that she had never been subject to fits, and that there was no history of epilepsy in the family It was testified that Smith, after the funeral, went to the office of the owner of his lodgings, laid his head on the desk and wept. But after a few moments he raised his head and remarked: ‘Was it not a jolly good job I got her to make her will?” Unter the will Smith afterwards came into possession of Miss Mundy’s entire estate, $12,500, besides the $650 he had = stolen from her. The evidence showed that he rejoined Miss Pegler and that they lived together as “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” until the latter part of 1913. How Smith made the acquaintance of Miss Alice Burnham was unknown to the prosecution. She was a trained nurse engaged at Southsea, and had saved $500, which she had given to her father to keep for her. Smith and the nurse were married Nov. 4 at Portsmouth, he using his own name. Smith immediately wrote to her father demanding the money ‘‘which you have been minding for her,” and added that if it did not arrive forthwith, he would be obliged to ‘take the usual course.” Burnham wrote asking some particulars about his son-in-law’s antecedents and parentage. Smith had the insolence to reply: “Sir: In answer to your application regarding my parentage, etc., my mother was a ‘bus horse, my father a cab driver, my sister was a rough rider over the Arctic regions and my brother was one of the gallant This is the only information (Continued on Page 15) PAGE THREE, to collect when arrested.

These are the men of the motor cycle squad, the men who enforce the speed and traffic laws. These 14 men have thousands of automobiles to watch. During the first three weeks in April they made more than 300 arrests. There are men in other professions who risk their lives daily, but most of them take those risks for high rewards. Probably no 14 men in St. Louis take the chances that the motor cycle police do for $90 a month, and two of the members of the squad who are still probationaries receive but $65. There is not one of them who has not been more or less seriously injured, and some of them have been in the hospital several times. Several can tell how it feels to be hurled 50 feet through the air from a racing cycle. Others know the sensation of suddenly finding one’s self trapped be-_ tween two automobiles, when riding at a rate of forty or fifty miles an hour, with no possible escape except to crash into one of the machines and take a chance on the results. At least three of the boys—and they look to be little more than that—are familiar with the feeling that comes to a man who believes that within a few seconds he will be crushed beneath the wheels of a speeding train. During the eight or nine years that St. Louis has had a squad of motor cycle police the members have received many serious injuries. Several have been compelled to leave the squad, cripples for life, but only one man has been fatally injured. But there is not a man among them who would trade places with the patrolman who walks the most peaceable beat in the city. Their work is hard, and there is little time to loaf, but it is exciting and there- fore, to them, is fascinating. When they gatber at the Laclede Avenue Station, after a strenuous day, and re- late their experiences to each other, they are more like a bunch of youths who have been out for a lark than men who have probably been face to face with death only a few bours before. And they find much that is humorous as well as seri- ous in their work. They know the avutoists of the city well. They know who are the frequent offenders and they finé, satisfaction in haling one of these before a Judge. They ride high-power machines and few autos can outdistance them. “he following men make up the squad: Seret. U. W. Mackay, Acting Sergeant Eric A. Burns. Owen C. Byrnes, J. B. Johnson, Fred Judge, A. E. Wander. Henry A. Gierse, John McKenna, Frank Rauh, Harry Meyers, Oliver Simon, Jobn Hesse, Walter Shaw, James A. Shannon. Acting Sergeant Burns was riding with Charles J. Benderoth when the latter was fatally injured, on April 22, 1914. Benderoth is the only man who has beeu killed while a member of the squad. They were going west on Lindell boulevard about 11 o'clock at night. At Boyle avenue an automobile suddenly turned into the boulevard, and before the moter cycle men could change their course, crashed into them.

In the accident Burns received injuries which caused concussion of the brain and for many days his associates feared that he had been fatally in- jared. Perhaps no members of the squad have had a more thrilling experience than Officers Johnson, Wander and Judge, when they barely missed being hit by a rapidiy moving train at the Delmar boulevard Wabash station. They were chasing a speeding auto and when the ma- chine approached the station the gates were down. The gatekeeper, seeing that the auto could not stop, lifted the gates enough fer the machine te pass through, but lowered them again before the motor cycle men reached them. They were riding at a speed of 55 miles an hour, when they were suddenly confronted with descending gates and a train bearing down upon the crossing abead of more than fifty miles an hour. The cycle cleared the ditch, but when it hit the road on the other side, the wheels gave way and machine and rider were piled up in the street. A dislocated elbow was the only serious | injury to the rider. Some time ago Johnson was riding at Newstead and Lindell, when a motor truck hit his cycle. He suffered a fractured ankle, from which he still limps slightly. About a year ago Johnson risked his life and saved a 2%-year-old boy who was playing in the street from probable death. Johnson was approaching at a high speed, when suddenly the boy ran in front of the motor cyce. Johnson could not stop and it was too late to turn aside. By a quick manipulation of the handlebars he succeeded in throwing the machine over. As the cycle fell it grazed the boy but did not hurt him seri- ously. Jorason received a hard fall, but escaped with- out serious injury. Officers Simon and Gierse have won reputations for of them. It was too late to step, and, with thoughts of sudden death in their minds, they dropped their heads be- tween the handle bars and barely shot under the gates. It was a race with a fast train, and they won, not by feet, but by inches. Their machines had not passed under the gate on the opposite side of the tracks before the ‘train was rumbling over the crossing. Officer Johnson has had many other. narrow es- capes. On New Year's ERIC Bl eve two years ago he was chasing a speeding auto on South Grand avenue. The machine turned into Russell avenue and con- tinued west, with John- s0n close behind. At Spring avenue some sewer work was being done and an open ditch seven feet wide and three and one- half feet deep had been left. The auto dodged the worst part of the ditch, but Johnson could not see the danger until too late to stop or turn aside. He OLIVER SIMON. was traveling at a speed PAGE FOUR. SUNDAY MAGAZINE- -ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH- -MAY 9, 1915. stopping runaway horses. Gierse, who is known to his friends as the “Flying Dutchman,” was the hero of one of the most exciting incidents of this kind. He chased a runaway team for several blocks, twice catch- ing one of the horses by the bridle, but each time being thrown from his machine. A third time he overtook the horses and grabbed one by the bit. He was again jerked from the cycle, but held on to the horse, and although he was dragged twenty yards, he succeeded in bringing the team to a stop. Simon, in addition to stopping runaways, has many daring feats to his credit and many times has barely escaped fatal injury. Jne of his most recent ac- cidents was last September, when he was chasing an automobile which he says was going at a rate of 45 miles an hour. Just as his aycle got even with the machine it skidded, hitting the auto. He was thrown several feet and his head bruised and elbow broken. Officer Rauh is one of the znen who has been hurled through the air, and has lived to tell of the sensa- jon. He was riding at 40 RNS. miles an hour on South Jefferson avenue, on July 3, 1913, when another motor cycle ran into him. He was picked up 35 feet from his machine, with a frac- tured skull. The first day Officer Hesse rode with the squad he broke down a smafi tree with his cycle, on the Wash- ington University campus, and was thrown 30 feet. but not injured. He was chasing an auto, which turned into one of the winding drives near the university. Hesse followed at a high speed. He made the first turn after the machine, but when he rc ached the second, lost con- trol and hit the tree. Two weeks after Officer Wander joined the squad he suffered a broken arm in an accident. Six months later he was riding on locust street when he hit a dog and was thrown from his cycle and the arm was rebroken.

Parents Now Preserving Film Records of Their Children at Play —Weddings, Receptions and Gatherings of all Kinds Photographed for Moving Picture Libraries in Private Homes. ~.° a e« ®@ ee e* ¢« OULDN’T you consider it a great privilege if you could look baek and see yourself when you were a child? Wouldn’t it be a_rare treat_to be able to observe your- self and your brothers and sisters capering about in overalls, knickerbockers, Kate Greenaways, Little Lord Fauntleroys, or whatever it was that kids wore when you were a kid? Wouldn't living, breathing, moving pictures of your- self in action at different periods of your life be absorbing? Think of it in comparison with the red plush-covered family album that contains ex- amples of yourself so transfixed and stiff with fear of the photographer that you seemed ready to break in two if you but moved an inch one way or the other. The family film fad has reached St. Louis. Many parents have started a cinemato- graphie record of their children, and it will only be a few years until family films will be as common as rolls of music for the player piano or disks for the phonograph. The future St. Louisan, when he has reached the three score and three-times-ten that science surely will have granted hrm by that time, and the retrospective mood old age brings, can switeh out the lights in the library, plug in on a lamp socket with the home movie outfit and review his life from childhood to old age. “Backward, turn backward, O time in your flight,” will not be a vain prayer; | the movie machine will make him a child again, even take him further back than childhood: show him as an infant, mewling and kicking in the nurse’s arms, then as the schooidoy with shininz morning face. as the furnace-like sighing lover, the soldier seeking the bubble reputation. the merchant, the judge, the lean and slippered pantaloon—all of his seven ages will be there before him on tne screen. The family film idea had its inception in the Eastern cities where . ta and ihey are busy in their play before he starts to expose the film. He thus catches them in their most charming and unconscious ac- tions. The perfection of small projection machines is very near. Heretofore the ma- chines have been cumbersome, and as the celluloid film is inflammable, dangerous, they would not have good results with- out high -voltage electric current that required an expert to operate. Smaller machines are being made that can be carried around from room to room, and which can be operated by connecting with the ordinary electric light circuit. [It is safe to say that fathers of St. Louis families of the days4Ao come may gather the moving picture records of weddings were first made, but the idea soon spread to other parts of the country, and now it has been taken up in St. Louts with a keen appreciation of its pos and amuse and instruct them with living pic- sibilities. | en i tures of themselves when they were little tots, Mayor Henry Kiel has so many short length films of his ei ee + « and of father and mother when they were chil- family, that when spliced together, they would make a fair Bye dren.

Machines to show the pictures in the home can be pur- chased at almost any price one wishes to pay. There is a small machine on the market, which is sold for less than $35. This, however,does not show a standard-gauge film. About the minimum price for a good machine showing standard film is $75. In some Eastern cities families have purchased their own moving picture cameras and some member of the family has learned to operate them. These cameras range in price from $125 to $1000, but a very good machine can be purchased for $200, according to moving picture men. The cost of the cam- era depends largely upon the strength of the lens. When a person operates his own machine the cost of the film is a considerable item.

THE DUC TURBULENT | rz Sg A Tale of Romance and Adventure By Percy J. Brebner oT CHAPTER VII. Shows How an Ass Remained Riderless. HE day was young, invigorating as a draft of wine; there was the keenness of new life in it. The sun of early morning threw long shad- ows of turreted wall and pointed roof across the . Castle courtyard, where borses pawed the rough stones impatiently, and men appeared anxious to be in the saddle and away. There was an air of excitement, men as'ed each other questions in an undertone, questions difficult to answer apparently; and only an ass, richly caparisoned in scarlet and green, and motionless save for an occasional flap of the ears, seemed perfectly con- tented with things as they were. Prince Karl, breezily good-humored, had just entered the inner hall, but one glance at his cousin, as he bent over her hand, was enough to show him that she was in a capricious mood. He was astonished to see Keven- felt there at such an hour. “You are an early riser, Baron, yet you do not go hunting, I think.” , “No, Prince, it was a more important matter which called me from bed.” “It is a pity you were not here 10 minutes earlier, Karl,” said the Duchess. ‘“‘We might have started be- fore the Baron had time to worry me.” “Your Highness, this is a serious matter,’ Kevenfelt returned, “It is not mere caprice, but the stern reality of war which causes this alteration in plans, and the Elector is too powerful a man to offend gratuitously.” “Baron, I am not inclined to be at the beck and call Elector,” the Duchess answered. “Madame, I think he means his message to be of great civility. Even at the Emperor’s urgent call, Brandenburg does not choose to ignore Podina.” “What is the Elector’s message?” asked Karl. “Post haste in the night a rider came to Metzburg with news that the Elector must visit us at once,” said the Duchess. ‘He puts his visit forward a week, and expects me to alter all my plans to give him welcome.” “Because he must hurry to the help of the imperial forces,” Kevenfelt added. “Your Grace hardly does him justice unless you give his reason.” “You seem more careful for the Elector, Baron, than you are for me,” said the Duchess, tapping her skirt irritably with her riding whip. “Madame, I would be fair to my worst enemy.” “The Elector no doubt has some definite end in view or he would not trouble you with this visit,” said Karl. “Indeed, why must he visit Podina at all?” “It would take too long a time to explain the diplo- macy which for years has served this state so well,’ Kevenfelt answered. “Your experience laughs at my youth, eb, Baron?” said Karl: “but, forgive the suggestion, the policy of the fathers may not always be best for the sons. to fol'!ow. When has our visitor decided to arrive, Cousin?” “Tomorrow at the latest, but it may be earlier,” said the Duchess. “The Baron demands that the hunt should be canceled.” “Postponed, Your Grace,” Kevenfelt corrected. “Is not one day as good as another for bunting? I would not risk offending a powerful neighbor.” “IT know the people of Festenhausen have made great prepaiation to receive you, Cousin,” said Karl. “There is a risk of offending them. Perhaps the Baron forgets that.”’ The Duchess looted at Kevenfelt. Devoted to her, and to her service, as the Baron was, he failed to ap- preciate her moods, and had never succeeded in separat- ing the woman from the ruler. He constantly appealed to the one when his appeal should have been to the other. It was so now. In spite of her annoyance she was ready to be persuaded. A careful answer to her look and to Prince Karl's suggestion, would have moved her: but Kevenfelt lost his opportunity by using sar- casm. “Since Your Grace must hunt, it remains for me to appease the Elector as best I may,” he said with a sbrug of his shoulders. “You forget my of any people at Festenhausen,”’ she re- turned quickly. “Prince Karl is right. I would sooner offend a neighbor than my own people. We shall en- deavor to return in time to relieve you of an arduous task. Baron, but we hunt today. Where is Bergolet?” “Bergolet! Bergolet!” The name was called in the castle and across the courtyard, but there was no answer. The ass awaited him, ready to carry him as far as the city gate, but no one had seen the jester this morning. “te does not leave his bed as easily as the Karl laughed, : “Go. fetch him, someone,” said the Duchess angrily. “The fellow presumes and must be taught manners. Bring him at once, as he is, in his night gear, if you have to drag him from his bed. At least it will amuse those who are early in the streets.” The jester was not in bed, had not been in his bed all night. Those who had gone to look for him returned to say that he was nowhere to be found. The big soldier Saxe was*troubled about him, and was even now abroad in the city looking for him. For a moment it seemed that the absence of the jester would achieve what the news of the Elector’s coming had failed to accomplish, that the hunt would not take place. The Duchess hesitated a little, then with an angry flick of her whip, she led the way from the hall. For a little way the Duchess rode in silence, her face shown no pleasure at the expedition.” Even now it seemed possible that she might turn back before reach- ine the city gate. | “What can have come to this fool?” she said, turning Jaron,” to Karl. “In some ways, as the Baren says, I expect he differs little from other men, Cousin. A night at the tavern may bave its attraction, and the liquor be potent enough to ma’ e him lose himself on his way home to bed.” “It might be the explanation,” she said. PAGE SIX but for some hours neither the room SYNOPSIS. ANPRA OF PODINA is known all over Europe as “the turbulent Duchess,” because of her “devil's own temper.’ Her country is coveted by the Elector of Brandenburg, who is building up his duchy into the Kingdom of Prussia. Her court fool has died, and she chooses as his successor the younger of a pair of vagabonds. who recommends hiinself by his gal- iantry and wit. He takes the name of Bergolet He learns that the marriage of the Luchess has become an affair of statecraft, and that a dozen Princes are suitors for her'hand. Of these the favorite seems to be her rousin, Karl, and the least favored is the “black sheep,” Maurice of Savaria. A mysterious woman, in the guise of a fortune teller, holds an interview with Bergolet, in the midst of which soldiers arrive to ar- rest him on Prince Karl's order. They escape through a secret passage into the Burgomaster's house and over- hear conspirators planning to kidnap the Duchess. Ber- golet, on the way home, is struck down and captured. “Or he may be a spy and have spent the night in the service of his employer.” - “That also might explain his absence, though I think he would be more careful not to arouse suspicion. He had my command to ride to the city gate with us, the ass was waiting. Last night, I remember, he pleaded to be allowed a horse and to ride with us to the hunt. He may come upon us so mounted before we leave the city. He might think it a good jest.” “You would not pardon such effrontery and let him come?” “TI should pardon the fellow, but I should send him back, with a few coins to spend perhaps during my ab- sence. He might go to a tavern and yet get safely home.” - “He might, but I wouldn't wager on it,” said Karl. ‘‘Maybe there is some woman in Metzburg’’——— “A woman?” queried the Duchess sharply. “That he is your fool, Cousin, gives him some impor- tance, and there are women who will smile upon some marvelously strange fellows.” “A woman!” she repeated. woman.” “Why, a woman is the most litely explanation,” laughed Karl. “‘A man’s a man though you deck him in motley, and even the wisest man may play the fool at the bidding of some woman. Why should your jester be different from the rest of mankind? The city gate is before us, Cousin, but I see no parti-colored rider on a horse. Take my word for it, either he is sleeping off the effects of the taverns, or behind some walls in Metz- burg a woman has succeeded in making him forget your commands.” “We shall find out,” she said, flicking her horse un- necessarily. “I will be obeyed though all the prettiest women in the world should gather together in Metz- burg.” At the gate she stopped and called an officer to her. “Have you see Bergolet?”’ “No, Your Grace.” ‘‘He is somewhere in the city, drunk in a tavern per- haps, or making love to some woman, or—I know not where he is or what he is doing. Have Metzburg searched. Find him. Put him under lock and key Sober him or cool his ardor with bread and water for diet until I return. My jester shall be taught man- ners. If men are beasts by nature, he shall be unnat- ural and not as other men.” Again she flicked her horse, which would have thrown a less capable rider in protest, and so passed through the gate without another word. In silence and with a smile upon his lips, Karl followed her, waiting for her petulant mood to change. Within four walls, inclousing a comfortless chamber, lav the jester, but he was not sleeping off the effects of a tavern orgy, nor was there any woman beside him to put a cool hand on his throbbing head. He lay in the corner of the room on a heap of straw, none too clean, nor his head had troubled him. He was dealing with shadows, some al- together fantastic, some with dim likeness to realities that had been in the past. Beyond this Bergolet’s consciousness did not go for a time. He saw, but without any special interest: and then, quite suddenly, he remembercd the drunken sol- dier who had mistaken him for a woman. He had eripped his arm very firmly for a drunken man. He had been pretending, surely. ._It was all part of a plot to capture him. It had been successful. He was a pris- oner, and on the upturned box sat his jailer. “Hallo,” said Bergolet, raising himself on his elbow. No limbs were broken; indeed, he was not so stiff as he expected. The soldier threw down the wood and put away his “T had not thought of a knife. “You're not dead then?” “Not vet, it takes a lot to kill some folk.” “That's no argument in your ¢ase. We orders to knock the senses out of you. A some sand in it does that easily.”’ “So easily that I’m trying to remember what pened,” said Bergolet. “I seem to remember you.” “Everybody knows me. I’m Hans, Big Hans. I was at the inn of the Three Shields when the Duchess took you for her fool.” “The Duchess;” said Bergolet. “What Duchess?’ The soldier leaned forward and regarded him in aston- ishment for a few monents. “What Duchess! Do you mean to say you don't re- had with only bag hap- ‘member who vou are?” “There's something better to be done,” laughed Bergo- let, after a pause. “I’ve just thought of it. Tate me to this Duchess, then we shall be told why I was ar- rested. Clever of me to think of that, isn't it?” “Very; but I can’t take you to the Duchess either. She left Metzburg early this morning.” “Left it!” SUNDAY MAGAZINE- -ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH -MAY 9 ——_ “Gone hunting. And there’s a puzzle about that, too. Gustave was here a while since and said the Duchess ordered the officer at the gate to arrest vou becanse you weren't there when she wanted you.” “How could I be when I was here?” “That’s what puzzles me,” said Hans. “It's all very confusing,” said Bergolet. “I expect | shall wake up presently and find vou're only a dream. Yet I seem to be awake now. That's daylight at the window, and it seems time to get up. Eh, but they're dead limbs I have.” Bergolet picked up the piece of wood which he had seen the soldier whittling. It was rather heavy, the pointed end of a stout stake. “Just a bit of wood,” said Hans. “You were making something?” asked Bergolet, point- ing to the litter on the floor. “Just cutting to pass the time.” Bergolet went to the window. He did not attempt to open it, but he looked up and down. Suddenly he slit a hole in his cloak with the point. of the stake. and began tearing the bottom part of it into strips, his guard watching him. “That's a fool's trick, spoiling a good cloak,” said the soldier. “Wait. | am a very clever fellow,’ and to the end of one strip Bergolet tied the piece of wood securely, knotting it with quick fingers. “It is not far to the street. We make a rope, the wood for a weight to keep. it steady, and then we climb down. I care not which of us goes first. Then for a tavern and breakfast. and afterwards—perhaps afterwards I shall sing. Is it not a clever thought of mine?” ‘Are you hungry? I can eall for food.” “Eat here!”’ Bergolet exclaimed. “It would me. I must have sunlight and the open air.” “Don't you understand that you're a prisoner, that I am to keep you here until I have word what to do with you?” There was a blank expression in Bergolet’s face. He held the strips of his cloak in ome hand, pointing to the window with the other, a forlorn and pathetic figure of imbecility. As a rule the rough soldier would have laughed and found him a good, jest, but now a deeper note was struck, and with a little sigh of pity he turned away from his prisoner. And in that moment Bergolet became alive. treachery, but at any cost he must escape. quick movement he swung round the block of wood which he had knotted to a strip of the cloth. It proved no mean weapon. It struck Hans full on the side of the head, felling him like an ox, and the big man lay senseless across the bed of straw. With the strips he had torn ready for this event, Bergolet bound him hand and foot, and tied a pad of cloth over his mouth to prevent his uttering a sound. The man was only stunned, there was no telling how long his unconscious- ness would last, and every moment was precious. The house door stood open. From the rear of the building came the clatter of a saucepan, the smell of cooking and a drone of voices, but no one barred his way. He passed into the street and assumed a slithering gait to match the coat he wore. There was a huge inside pocket into which he thrust the weapon which had served him so well. He might need it again. He avoided the busier streets, and he noted with sat- isfaction that the few people he met took no interest in him. Until now all his wit had been concentrated on how to escape, but this so far accomplished, his brain was busy deciding what next he must do. Already the hunting party was far on its way to- ward that ravine near Festenhausen; how was he to prevent the Duchess reaching it? The-sun was near noon. Men were searching the city for him. A swift horse he must have to make rescve possible. How was he to get it? To attempt theft from the castle stables must mean capture. Even if he came by a horse, how was he to pass out of the city gate? He silunk along side streets, his direction towards the gate by which the Duchess had gone that morning. So far good fortune had been with him. He might slip through the gate unnoticed, and rob some farm of a horse. This hope seemed gone when he came in sight of the gate. ‘There were more soldiers there than usual. Some troopers had just flung themselves from their sad- dles and were in eager conversation with the Captain at the gate. A crowd of idlers was gathered about them. and with no definite plan in his mind, Bergolet joined the crowd. Bergolet elbowed his way through the crowd of idlers until he stood near the horses. It was impossible to slip through the gate without being seen. He looked first at one horse, then at another, finally stroking one. The animal started a little at his touch, and at a see- ond touch moved impatiently. “Stand away there,” cried a trooper roughly to the crowd. | There was a quick backward movement at his com- mand, and then a yell.. The horses began to plunge, causing confusion, and one of them reared high, pawed the air for a moment and then sprang forward to- wards the gate. On his back was a man swinging in a rapid circle the piece of wood tied to a black band. The weapon struck once or twice, bringing an oath and a crv of pain. It effectually cleared a space about the horse and its rider, and the soldiers by the gate fell back at the onslaught. With a quick movement the rider let his coat Hie had seen a musket raised to fire. “It's the jester! It's Bergolet!”’ “Don't shoot!" came a frantic order.

CHAPTER VIII. The Day Passes. W the fellow rides!” exclaimed one .trooper, ae digging spurs into his horse to better its pace. “Aye, like a bundle of old rags in the saddle. -I have looked every moment to see a fall,” was the answer, and he too dug in his spurs, for the city gate had been left far behind and his beast was flagging. It seemed likely that the rough ground might bring disaster, for Bergolet rode loosely, his body bent low over the horse’s outstretched neck. He looked rather like a bundle of rags which at a sudden jerk might easily fall, and it might be terror which gave the animal such pace; but the effect of the riding was to make the bur- den as light as possible, and the jester talked to his horse all the time, in confidential whispers of enconr- agement and appreciation as though human ears were listening and speech might answer him. Bergolet patted the horse as he glanced behind him. The troopers were laboring after him, still losing dis- tance. and the fringe of the forest was before him. If his pursuers got so far they would lose him there. They would hardly expect him to ride towards Festen- hausen, that would be to overtake the Duchess and be- come a prisoner again. The men behind him were doubtless henest fellows, with no part in the plot which he was attempting to frustrate. SS When the pursuit was over, Bergolet went slowly fog a while, resting his horse. There was no telling what the animal might have to do before the day was over. Beyond the genefal direction of Festenhausen, Bergolet knew nothing of these deep glades and green tracks. Along the roads travelers might be met, travelers who were better avoided perchance, and it was not by any road the hunting party would go. Not until towards evening was the Gallows Oak to be reaehed, and a direct way would not be followed. There would be some hours of hunting, a wandering to this side and that, otherwise Bergolet could not expect to arrive in time. At a shake of the reins the horse broke into a canter, the soft turf giving little sound to the beating hoofs. Bergolet still had his weapon, the pointed stake-end fastened to a strip of cloth; it had served him excel- lently, and there might be further use for it yet. There were other thieves in the forest besides those waiting near the Gallows Oak. And Bergolet had keen eyes as he went, and noted his direction carefully. Time slipped away as he went deeper and deeper into the forest. Twice he crossed a road, running to right and left of him, but not a traveler was to be seen upon it: and once he turned back for the third of a league or more, finding that the trac’ he had chosen bent too 6 4 Mo SS ee ” 2 eT Sey S33 Peete te ’ iagthaaiesiesee stata ese ctameest tase: bringing an oath and a cry of pain.” complished and no sign of the jester found there, Saxe returned to the castle with his companions. With them he grumbled at being kept out of his bed to no pur- pose, but unlike them he made no attempt to sleep. As soon as he could do so without attracting attention, he went to the round tower and climbed the stairs to Ber- golet’s lodging. He did not expect to find the jester there, but he might find something to suggest upon what kind of adventure he was engaged. Saxe’s attitude of protection towards the fool was a jest with his fellows. “The Fool’s Nurse” and “Mother Saxe” were amongst the names they gave him, but not in his hearing, since he had knoc’ed a man down for the pleasantry. No one was astonished therefore when with early morning, he went off in quest. of his charge. One man, who had a liking for the grim soldier, being of taciturn humor himself, warned him to be careful and not get into trouble over the matter. “I was on duty last night, obeying the Duchess,” Saxe answered; “this morning I am off duty and look- ing for a friend who at times is not able to take care of himself.” So Saxe was searching the city when the Duchess’ messengers came to call Bergolet and drag him from his bed if necessary, and he saw nothing of the hunting party on its way to the gate. For most of his ac- quaintances Saxe would have had a shrewd notion where to search. There would have been some favorite tavern where he would certainly have been heard of, or some girl whose face and figure had an especial power of attraction; but with Bergolet it was not so. When he drank wine it was in no special place, and attend- ance upon Her Grace seemed to have absorbed him as far as women were concerned. Saxe’s wandering was, therefore, rather aimless, a trusting to chance. It was after noon that a double excitement came to his knowledge. Bergolet had been taken last night and kept in a house near the place of his capture because the senses had been knoc'ed out of him in’the struggle. Big trooper Hans had been his jailer. Early this morn- ing the prisoner was asleep, trooper Gustay had seen him when he went to talk to Hans. Some time before noon Gustav had gone back to talk to Hans again, and had found him bound upon the straw bed in the corner, gagged and unconscious, and the prisoner was gone. Hans was recovering but could not yet tell a plain story. Gustav had only just given the alarm when news came that Bergolet had hoodwinked the guard at the gate, stajen a horse, and had escaped from the city. Soldiers had ridden after him, but the jester had got clear away. Saxe’s face wrinkled into a grim smile when he had confirmed the news. Bergolet had cheated his enemies, but it was all very puzzling to Saxe. How was it the Duchess was ignorant of the jester’s arrest last night? Duty called Saxe back to the castle, but it was still far from the general line he was following. There was destined to be a day of extraordinary happenings for no sign of the hunting party, not a sound of it to be heard, and nothing had been dropped by the way to tell of its passing, though he kept a sharp lookout as he ie, . » + .

You had better humor me, and you risk nothing. Along this alleyway to the right we are not likely to meet anyone.” “Pardon me, madame, but women do not interest me.” “You are frank, yet in speaking to you there is -ome condescension on my part I do assure you. Per- chance I may prove an exceptional woman and sha’ interest you.” “T think not.” “Am I not sufficiently good looking?” “I am no judge. You are a woman and that is enough for me. I have nothing to do with women.” “One of my despised sex must have hurt you very deeply at some time.” “Tf am a rough soldier, and have no belief in confes- sion,’”’ was the answer. “Rough, certainly; and to match your frankness, I might add not prepossessing.”’ Saxe saluted and was going when she touched his arm. “Wait. I think you have been much in the market place today, interested in a saddler’s shop there.” “Whe told you so?” “The saddier himself. Ah, that does interest you, I see.” “You have evidently not heard that the-saddler has disappeared,” Saxe said. “Indeed, I was the first to know of it,”’ she answered. “IT had my own affairs to think of, and had locked my door for safety when I remembered the old man, so fearing he might suffer at the hands of your rough comrades for his part in last night’s adventure, I hid him. He has spent his idle hours in watching the mar- ket place from an upper window. Bergolet happens to be a friend of mine. Shall we turn into this alley? It has a private and secret aspect.” He hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked by her side. “A woman may be interesting, Trooper Saxe, if not on her own account, by reason of what she knows.” “IT am interested in Bergolet,” was the curt answer; “shall we. talk of him?” “He is the only bond between us, for I assure you I am not interested in Trooper Saxe,” she laughed. “Last night the jester visited me. No, do not think evil of him or of me. It was by my contriving, but it was no love affair, though I do not think he is a hater of women as you are.” “More’s the pity, for your contriving has got him into grievous trouble.” “Never judge the tale until it is finished, nor a woman until you know all about her. I only showed Bergolet how he might serve the Duchess. He would have left by the way he came had not the soldiers interrupted us.- I concealed him, and about midnight let him out by a back door. Today I hear that he was captured last night, and this morning has escaped from the city.” “‘Where to? Can you tell me that?’ “I doubt not he has ridden after Her Grace into the forest. There was treachery on foot.” : “What treachery?’ “Bergolet knows and may tell you if he will. How should I know whether he shares his secrets with you?’ “You must speak plainly,” said Saxe, in a tone of command. . “Must!” “For Bergolet’s sake.” “It is plain enough; she answered. “If he were too late to warn the Duchess, he may have fallen into the hands of her enemies.” “And then”’ “The worst that might happen is death.” “Death! Bergolet! My—Heavens, woman, you talk as if the death of a man were no more than a passing incident. I tell you”—— “You show me a side of Trooper Saxe which is not unprepossessing,” she said gently. “Indeed, I think you are afraid too easily. I am inclined to trust Bergolet’s wit to find the way out and to save the Duchess, too.” “I shall find excuse to ride towards the forest within the hour,” said Saxe. “A natural decision, but a foolish one, I think. Wait a little. I look to see some of the hunting party re- turn quickly, and we shall learn more then. Do you suppose it was by the Duchess’ orders that Bergolet was arrested last night?” “The order came in her name. I was amongst those who searched the saddler's shop.” “The jester has many enemies.’” “I shall ride from the city within the hour,” said Saxe. “Could I persuade him he should never enter its gates again.” “He is not a woman hater and would cut you down, I think, if you stood in his path to Metzburg. You have a strange love for this fool, Trooper Saxe.” “Strange love! He is my—my friend.” “Have a care or you will be telling me :.crets,” she laughed. “Do not leave the city. Bergolet’s enemies are within it. They would hear of your going and you might do harm instead of good. Wait. Wait until to- morrow. Should Bergolet not return then, we will take counsel together. I may help you to trustworthy men for a search.” ° “You! Who are you? What knowledge lies behind that—that face of ‘yours?’ “You hesitate—would you say pretty face, Trooper Saxe? Say it. You will not make me angry, nor will you be the first to utter so obvious truth. Who am I? I have no need to hesitate, having nothing to hide. I am Bertha von Lehmann, a lady-in-waiting to Her Grace, one who is beginning to be somewhat in her con- fidence.

“f ference in their stations, and that gives him a chance ‘ ar a f}% ha NE day last summer I went to Pittsburg —well, I had to go there on business. My chair car was profitably well filled with people of the kind one usually sees on chair cars. Most of them were ladies with brown silk dresses cut with square yokes, with lace insertion and dotted veils, who refused to have the windows raised. Some students of human nature can look at a man in a Pullman and tell you where he is from, his occupation, and his stations in life, both flag and social: but I never could. The only way I can correct- ly judge a fellow traveler is when the train is held up by robbers, or when he reaches at the same time | do for the last towel in the dressing room of the sleeper. The porter came and brushed the collection of soot on the window sill off to the left knee of my trousers. I removed it with an air of apology. The temperature was 88. One of the dotted-veiled ladies demanded the closing of two more ventila tors, and spoke loudly of Interlaken. I leaned back idly in chair No. 7, and looked with the tepidest curiosity at the small, black, bald-spotted head just visibie above the back of No. 9. Suddenly No. 9 hurled a book to the floor between his chair and the window; and, looking, I saw that it was “The Rose Lady and Trevelyan,” one of the best sell- ing novels of that day. And then the critic or Philistine, whichever he was, veered his chair toward the window; and I knew him at once for John A. Pescud of Pittsburg, traveling salesman for a plate glass company—an old acquaintanace whom I had not seen in two years. In two minutes we were faced, had shaken hands, and had finished with such topics as rain, prosperity, health, resi- dence and destination. Politics might have followed next; but I was not so ill- fated. I wish you might know John A. Pescud. He is of the stuff that heroes are not often lucky enough to be made of. He is a small man with a wide smile, and an eye that seems to be fixed upon that little red spot on the end of your nose. I never saw him wear but one kind of necktie, and he believes in cuff holders and button shoes. He is as hard and true as anything ever turned out by the Cambria Steel Works; and he believes that as soon as Pittsburg makes smoke consumers compulsory, St. Peter will come down and sit at the foot of Smithfield street, and let somebody else attend to the gare up in the branch heaven. He believes that “our” plate glass is the most important commodity in the world; and that when a man is in his home town he ought to be decent and law abiding. During my acquaintance with him in the City of Diurnal Night I had never known his views on life, romance, literature and ethics. We had browsed, during our meet- ings, on local topics, and then parted after Chateau Margeux, Irish stew. fiannel cakes, cottage pudding and coffee (hey, there!—with milk separate). Now | was to get more of his ideas. By way of facts, he told me that business had picked up since the party conventions, and that he was going to get off at Coketown. . IT. AY,” said Pescud, stirring his discarded book with the toe of his right shoe, “did you ever read one of these best sellers? I mean the kind where the hero is an American swell sometimes even from Chicago—who falls in love with a royal Princess from Europe who is traveling under an alias, and follows her to her father’s kingdom or principality? I guess you have. They're all alike. Sometimes this going-away masher is a Washington newspaper correspondent, and sometimes he is a Van Something from New York, or a Chicago wheat broker worth fifty millions. But he’s always ready to break into the King row of any foreign: country that sends over their Queens and Princesses to try the new plush seats on the Big Four or the B. and O. There doesnt seem to be any other reason in the book for their be- ing here. “Well, this fellow chases the royal chairwarmer home, as I said, and finds out who she is. He meets her on the corso or the strasse one evening and gives us 10 pages of conversation. She reminds him of the dif- $4 to ring in three solid pages about America’s uncrowned sovereigns. If you'd take his remarks and set ‘em to music, and then take the music away from ‘em, they'd sound exactly like one of George Cohari’s songs. “Well, you know how it runs on, if you’ve read any of ’em—he slaps the King’s Swiss body guards around like everything whenever they get in his way.

He stands on the first landing of the royal staircase in Castle Schutzenfesten- stein with a gleaming rapier in his hand, and makes a Baltimore broi!l of six platoons of traitors who come to massacre the said King.

The Count—in order to make the go possible—seems to be an expert at the art of *elf-de- fense himself; and here we have the Corbett-Sullivan fight done over into literature. The book ends with the broker and the Princess doing a John Cecil Clay cover under the linden trees on the Gorgonzola Walk. That winds up the love story plenty good enough. But I notice that the book dodges the final issue. Even a best seller has sense enough to shy at either leaving a Chicago grain broker on the throne of Lobsterpotsdam or bringing over a real Princess to eat fish and potato gate The y we salad in an Italian chalet on Michigan avenue. What do you think about ’em?” “Why,” said I, “I hardly know, John. Theres a lot of peonle who like to read that kind of a story.” “Yes,” said Pescud, “but these kind of love stories I know something about litera- ture, even if I am in plate glass. These kind of books are wrong: and yet | never go into a train but what they pile ‘em on me. No good can come out of an in- ternationa! clinch between the Old World aristocracy and one of us fresh Americans.

> A NO NOLL ERAT NGI Br MR AE my ference in their stations, and that gives him a chance be NE day last summer I went to Pittsburg —well, I had to go there on business. My chair car was profitably well filled with people of the kind one usually sees on chair cars. Most of them were ladies with brown silk dresses cut with square yokes, with lace insertion and dotted veils, who refused to have the windows raised. Some students of human nature can look at a man in a Pullman and tell you where he is from, his occupation, and his stations in life, both flag and social: but I never could. The only way I can correct- ly judge a fellow traveler is when the train is held up by robbers, or when he reaches at the same time I! do for the last towel in the dressing room of the sleeper. The porter came and brushed the collection of soot on the window sill off to the left knee of my trousers. I removed it with an air of apology. The temperature was 88. One of the dotted-veiled ladies demanded the closing of two more ventila tors, and spoke loudly of Interlaken. I! leaned back idly in chair No. 7, and looked with the tepidest curiosity at the small, black, bald-spotted head just visible above the back of No. 9. Suddenly No. 9 hurled a book to the floor between his chair and the window: and, looking, I saw that it was “The Rose Lady and Trevelyan,” one of the best sell- ing novels of that day. And then the critic or Philistine, whichever he was, veered his chair toward the window; and I knew him at once for John A. Pescud of Pittsburg, traveling salesman for a plate glass company—an old acquaintance whom I had not seen in two years. In two minutes we were faced, had shaken hands, and had finished with such topics as rain, prosperity, health, resi- dence and destination. Politics might — have followed next; but I was not so ill- fated. I wish you might know John A. Pescud. He is of the stuff that heroes are not often lucky enough to be made of. He is a small man with a wide smile, and an eye that seems to be fixed upon that little red spot on the end of your nose. I-never saw him wear but one kind of necktie, and he believes in cuff holders and button shoes. He is as hard and true as anything ever turned out by the Cambria Steel Works; and he believes that as soon as Pittsburg makes smoke consumers compulsory, St. Peter will come down and sit at the foot of Smithfield street, and let somebody else attend to the gare up In the branch heaven. He believes that “our” plate glass is the most important commodity in the world; and that when a man is in his home town he ought to be decent and law abiding. During my acquaintance with him in the City of Diurnal Night I had never known his views on life, romance, literature and ethics. We had browsed, during our meet- ings, on local topics, and then parted after Chateau Margeux, Irish stew. fiannel cakes, cottage pudding and coffee (hey, there!—with milk separate). Now | was to get more of his ideas. By way of facts, he told me that business had picked up since the party conventions, and that he was going to get off at Coketown. é If. AY,” said Pescud, stirring his discarded book ae with the toe of his right shoe, “did you ever read one of these best sellers? I mean the kind where the hero is an American swell sometimes even from Chicago—who falls in love with a royal Princess from Europe who is traveling under an alias, and follows her to her father’s kingdom or principality? I guess you have. They're all alike. Sometimes this going-away masher is a Washington newspaper correspondent, apd sometimes he is a Van Something from New York, or a Chicago wheat broker worth fifty millions. But he’s always ready to break into the King row of any foreign country that sends over their Queens and Princesses to try the new plush seats on the Big Four or the B. and O. There doesnt seem to be any other reason in the book for their be- ing here. “Well, this fellow chases the royal chairwarmer home, as I said, and finds out who she is. He meets her on the corso or the strasse one evening and gives us 10 pages_of_conversation. She reminds him of the dif- to ring in three solid pages about America's uncrowned sovereigns. If you’d take his remarks and set ‘em to music, and then take the music away from ’em, they'd sound exactly like one of George Cohari’s ‘songs. ‘Well, you know how it runs on, if you’ve read any of ’em—he slaps the King’s Swiss body guards around like everything whenever they get in his way. Hes a great fencer, too. Now, I’ve known of some Chicago men who were pretty notorious fences, but I never heard of any fencers coming from there. He stands on the first landing of the royal staircase in Castle Schutzenfesten- stein with a gleaming rapier in his hand, and makes a Baltimore broil of six platoons of traitors who come to massacre the said King. And then he has to fight duels with.a couple of Chancellors, and foil a plot by four Austrian Archdukes to seize the kingdom for a gasoline station. “But the great seem ig when his rival for the Princess’ hand, Count Woeder, attacks him between the portcullis and the ruined chapel) armed with a mitrailleuse, a yataghan and a couple of Siberian bloodhounds.

Of course, we have a neat little prize fight right then and there. The Count—in order to make che go possible—seems to be an expert at the art of ~elf-de- fense himself; and here we have the Corbett-Sullivan fight done over into literature. The book ends with the broker and the Princess doing a John Cecil Clay cover under the linden trees on the Gorgonzola Walk. That winds up the love story plenty good enough. But I notice that the book dodges the final issue. Even a best seller has sense enough to shy at either leaving a Chicago grain broker on the throne of Lobsterpotsdam or bringing over a real Princess to eat fish and potato They went in a gate on top salad in an Italian chalet on Michigan avenue. What do you think about ’em?” “Why,” said I, “I hardly know, John. Theres a lot of peonie who like to read that kind of a story.” “Yes,” said Pescud, “but these kind of love stories - are rank—on the level. I know something about litera- ture, even if [ am in plate glass. These kind of books are wrong: and yet | never go into a train but what they pile ‘em on me. No good can come out of an in- ternationa! clinch between the Old World aristocracy and one of us fresh Americans.

And I told her everything about myself, and what I was making, and how that all I asked was just to get acquainted with her and try to get her to like me. “She smiles a little, and blushes some, but her eyes never get mixed up. They look straight at whatever she’s talking to. “*T never had anyone talk like this to me before, Mr. Pescud,’ says she. ‘What did you say your name is— John?’ “‘*John A.,’ says I. ““And you came mighty near missing the train at Powhatan Junction, too,’ says she with a ae its laugh that sounced as good as a mileage book to me. ““How did you know?’ | asked. “*Men are very clumsy,’ said she. ‘I knew you were on every train. I thought you were going to speak te me, and I’m glad you didn’t.’ “Then we had more talk; and at last a kind of proud, serious look came on her face, and she turned and pointed a finger at the big house. “*The Allyns,’ says she, ‘have lived in Eimeroft for a hundred years. We area proud family. Look at that mansion. It has fifty rooms. See the pillars and porches and balconies. The ceilings in the reception rooms and the ball room are twenty-eight feet high. My father is a lineal descendant of belted earls.’ “‘T belted one of ‘em once in the Duquesne Hotel in Pittsburg,’ says I, ‘and he didn’t offer to resent it. He was there dividing his attentions between Monoga- hela whisky and heiresses, and he got fresh.’ : ““Of course,’ she goes on, ‘my father wouldn’t allow a drummer to set his foot in Elmcroft. If he knew that [I was talking to one over the fence he would lock me in my room.’ “Would you let me come there?’ says 1 ‘Would you talk to me if I was to cal!® For,’ I goes on, ‘if you said I might come and see you, the earls might be belted or suspendered, or pinned up with safety pins, as far as I am concerned.’ ““*T must not talk to you,’ says she, ‘because we have not been introduced. It is not exactly proper. So I will say goodby, Mr.’—— ““Say the name, says I. ‘You haven't forgotten it.’ “*Pescud, says she, a little mad. “*The rest of the name!’ I demands, coo! as could be. “*John,’ says she. *““John—what?’ I says. “*“John A.,’ says she, with her head high. ‘Are you through now?’ “‘Il’m going to see the belted earl tomorrow,’ | says. ‘He'll feed you to his fox hounds,’ says she, laughing. “If he does, it’ll improve their running,’ says |. ‘I’m something of a hunter myself.’ “*l must be going in now, says she. ‘I oughtn’'t to have spoken to you at all. I hope you'll have a pleasant trip back to Minneapolis—or Pittsburg, was it? Goodby!’ “*Good night,’ says I, ‘and it wasn’t Minneapolis. What's your name, first, please?’ “She hesitated. Then she pulled a leaf off a bush, and said: “*My name is Jessie,’ says she. “Good night, Miss Allyn,’ says I. “The next morning at 11 sharp I rang the doorbell of that World’s Fair main building. After about three- “Laugh! I was wishing quarters of an hour an old nigger man about 80 showed up and asked what I wanted. I gave him my business card, and said | wanted to see the Colonel. He showed me in. “Say, did you ever crack open a wormy English walnut? That's what that house was like. There wasn't enough furniture in it to fill an $8 flat. Some old horsehair lounges and three-legged chairs and some framed ancestors on the walls were all that met the eye. But when Col. Allyn comes in, the place seemed to light up. You could almost hear a band playing, and see a bunch of old-timers in wigs and white stock- ings dancing a quadrille. It was the style of him, although he had on the same shabby clothes I saw him wear at the station. “For about nine seconds he had me rattled, and I came mighty near getting cold feet and trying to sell him some plate glass. But I got my nerve back pretty quick. He asked me to sit down; and I told him every- thing. I told him how I'd followed his daughter from Cincinnati, and what I did it for, and all about my bill of glass I'd sell him!” salary and prospects, and explained to him my little code of living—to be always decent and right in your home town: and when you're on the road, never take more than four glasses of beer a day, or play higher than a 25-cent limit. At first | thought he was going to throw me out of the window; but | kept on talking. Pretty soon I got a chance to tell him that story about the Western Congressman who had lost his pocketbook and the grass widow—you remember that story. Well, that got him to laughing, and I'll bet that was the first laugh those ancestors and horsehair sofas had heard in many a day. “We talked two hours. I told him everything I Knew; and then he began to ask questions, and I told him the rest. All I asked of him was to give me a chance. If I couldn’t make a hit with the little lady, l’d clear out, and not bother any more. At last he says: “*‘There was a Sir Courtney Pescud in the time of Charles I, if I remember rightly.’ “‘Tf there was,’ says I, ‘he can’t claim kin with our bunch. We've always lived in and around Pittsburg. I’ve got an uncle in the real estate business, dnd one in trouble somewhere out in Kansas. You can inquire about any of the rest of us from anybody in old Smoky to myself he was a customer. Town. and get satisfactory replies. Did you.ever rua across that story about the captain of the whaler who tried to make a sailor say his prayers?’ says I. “‘It occurs to me that I have never been so for- tunate,’ says the Colonel. “So I told it to him. Laugh! I| was wishing to my- self that he was a customer. What a bill of giass Id sell him! And then he says: “*The relating of anecdotes and humorous occurrences has always seemed to me, Mr. Pescud, to be a particu- larly agreeable way of promoting and perpetuating amenities between friends. With your permission, I will relate to you a fox hunting story with which | was personaliv connected, and which may furnish you some amusement.’ “So he tells it. It takes forty minutes, by the watch. Did I laugh? Well, say! When I got my face straight, he calls in old Pete, the superannuated darky, and sends him down to the hotel to bring up my valise. It was Elmecroft for me while I was in the town. “Two evenings later I got a chance to speak a word with Miss Jessie alone on the porch while the Colonel was thinking up another story. “It's going to be a fine evening,’ says I. “*He’s coming,’ says she. ‘He's going to tell you, this time, the story about the old negro and the green watermelon. It always comes after the one about the Yankees and the game rooster. There was another time,’ she goes on, ‘that you nearly got left--it was at Pulaski City.’ “*Yes,’ says I; ‘I remember. My foot slipped as I was jumping on the step and I nearly tumbled off.’ ““T know,’ says she. ‘And—and I—J/ was afraid you had, John A. I was afraid you had.’ “And then she skips into the house through one of the big windows.” IV. OKETOWN!” droned the porter, $4 making his way through the slowing car.

GOETHALS’ OWN STORY OF BUILDING THE PANAMA CANAL —. ) oo How the great working force was divided into “gold” and “silver” employes— Recruiting laborers in Spain and West Indies, and rebuffs met in Italy and China—The Government's way of ealving labor troubles and coping with strikes. 0 2- 2 & —— INSTALLMENT THREE. BY MAJOR-GENERAL GEORGE W. GOETHALS, Governor of the Canal Zone. HE widespread reputation of the Isthmus of Panama as a “pest hole,’ which pre- vailed when the Americans took possession of the work in 1904, increased materially the cost of the canal. in order to induce skilled labor of the requisite character and quantity to go to the Isthmus, it was necessary to adopt a scaf@ of wagex higher than had been on previous construction work anywhere, and to continue that scale unmodified after the Isthmus had ceased to be more perilous to health than any other tropical country. Existing dread of the [sthmus was confirmed and enhanced by an outbreak of vellow fever among American employes, which oce- curred in 1905. and which reached the proportions of an epidemic. Aithough the prospect of active resumption of canal cousiruction had attracted a few hundred men from Me,ico and Central and South America, the available working force composed of these and others brought from the United States formed only a fraction of the large number required. It was realized that a plan of systematic recruiting of both skilled and common laborers must be put into operation. This was done, and the assembling of a working force divided into what were known later as “gold” and “silver” em- Pploves was becun. American employes, who desired to be paid in the money of their own country, were called “gold” men, anc the natives of Panama and the West India islands, being familiar only with the coinage of their own lands, desired payment in silver. As a consequence, the designations of “gold” and ‘silver’ employes were adopted and prevailed till the completion of the work. The “gold” force comprised officials, clerks, super- intendents, mechanics, steam shovel operators, locomo- tive engineers, and, broadly speaking, all classes of skilled American labor: while the “silver” force in- cluded all common laborers, both European and West Indian, and alien artisans. This designation was found not only convenient but politic, since it avoided al!! reference to the color line. Prior to 1907 efforts had been made to secure common labor from various sources. About 500 laborers had been recruited in Cuba, but opposition developed on the part of the planters, and no large supply could be se- cured from this source. Southern negroes had not been brought down except in small numbers as teamsters, be- cause of the objections that would be raised to their removal in large numbers from the farms. Because of the inducements offered by the railroads in the western part of the United States, it was impos- sible to secure immigrants at Ellis Island. Bids had been invited and received for Chinese labor, but had been rejected. In Europe, efforts were principally directed toward securing Spaniards from the mountain province of Galicia, as it was found that they were hardy, intelli- gent and tractable. Opposition to recruiting in Eu- rope developed from official sources; in italy a press agitation was started, with official support. Laborers were warned against coming to Panama, and finally forbidden to do so. The King of Spain, in November, 1908 issued a decree temporarily forbidding emigra- tion to Panama. Notwithstanding these obstacles, 8298 laborers were recruited from Spain, 1941 from Italy, and 1101 from Greece, with the understanding that they should be paid at the rate of 20 cents, gold, per hour for a nine- hour day and be supplied with free quarters, free medi- ca!) attendance, and meals if desired, at the rate of 4) cents, gold, per day. In addition to the laborers re- eruited directly, many came of their own accord, in- duced to do so by letters from friends or relatives. There were occasional diffieulties with [European ~ , — Group of ‘‘Gallegos;’’ so called because they came from Galicia, in northern Spain. They w-re hardy, vigorous men, among the most efficient members of the canal working force. laborers, but not of a serious nature. The food fur- nished at the messes was one cause and inability to understand the language another. These were over- come, however, largely through Mr. Giuseppe Garibaldi, who was employed to investigate their grievances. He enlisted cooks, arranged their menus, and with his as sistamce the commissary was enabled to cater to their tastes and provide the foodstuffs to which they were accustomed. Trouble resulted because colored police- men were placed to guard their camps, but this was remedied by detailing whites for this duty. The Europeans were used largely on track work in the central ‘division, which included Culebra Cut, and were often obliged to continue at work from 7 a. m. to 1:30 p. m. without intermission, clearing and aligning tracks during the noon hours. Their morning meal was not a substantial one, so the men carried a roll or sandwich with them, which they would eat in the course of the morning. To this the division engineer objected, and some of the men were suspended five days in con- sequence; then an entire gang was suspended, with the ultimate result that upward of 600 quit work, a number of them leaving. They were orderly, presented their grievances for consideration, and I directed that they he allowed 10 minutes during the morning for their repast, the foreman to fix the time. Jamaica offered the most promising field for recruit- ing in the West Indies, but arrangements-could not be made with the authorities to permit it. However, a great many Jamaicans had been employed on the Canal as artisans, cooks, janitors and petty clerks. Recruiting from the other islands brought to the isthmus 19,000 men from Barbados, 5542 from Marti- niqie, 2053 from Guadeloupe and 1427 from Trinidad: 1493 were also secured from Colombia. These figures do not show the large numbers who came of their own aceord, including Fast Indians. This class of labor was employed at 10 cents, gold, per hour, given free quarters and medical attendance. and furnished three meals a day at a total cost of 30 cents. West Indian laborers were never entirely satisfac- tory. Their standard of living is low, and as a class they are sluggish and lack vitality; but their efficiency was increased by introducins competition through the European laborer, by supptying them with proper food, by training, and by familia-:izing the American foremen with their peculiarities. The ratio of efficiency between the Eurogean and West Indian. which at the beginning was fixed at 2 to 1, did not hold good through the en- tire period of service; while that of the latter increased. that of the former decreased, as the result of working in juxtaposition. The recruiting of the “gold” force was carried on through the Washington office of the commission by means of correspondence, by advertising and by agents in the field, of whom at one time three were employed. In making these 2>mployments the requirements were, broadly, that the applicant must be an American citi- zen in good physi- eal condition, as shown by a medi- cal examination just prior to de- parture, not less than 20 nor more than 40 years old (for some positions the maximum age limit was less), and capable of perform- ing the duties for which employed.

As a consequence the commission allowed certain privileges in addition to salary and because of the intimate re- lations between the two interests, the Panama Railroad Col Goetnais in working costume on the walls of canal locks at Gatun. Co. and the Isthmian Canal Commission, the same con- ditions were made applicable to both. Compensation of employes began on the date of sail- ing from a port of the United States, and they were furnished with free transportation to the Isthmus, in- cluding subsistence. Where available, quarters were provided free of charge, including fuel, lights and water, and, except at the very beginning of the work, bachelor quarters were always available. Free transportation was also allowed to a port of the United States upon termination of service by or at the instance of the commission, provided such service had been satisfactory. All employes whose salary was fixed on a monthly or annual basis were allowed sick leave during the period of disability, not to exceed 30 days in any calendar year for an employe appointed in the United States, and not to exceed 15 days in any calendar year for an employe appointed on the Isthmus. Such leave was not cumulative, was not given to an employe appointed with a rate of pay per hour, and could be granted only upon the certificate of an authorized physician in the employ of the commission. All employes, whether on a monthly or hourly basis. in the discretion of the proper official, were allowed leave for injury incurred in the performance of duty, while incapacitated by reason of such injury, but not to exceed 30 days in any calendar year. In the case of an employe paid by the month or year, pay for injury leave was at the rate of compensation received at the time of the injurv. while an employe paid by the hour received pay on the basis of eight hours constituting a day. In the case of all employes, free medical and hos- pital attendance was provided. An employe whose salary was fixed on an annual or (Continued on Page 1.) ' » Reevw ete oe ea ii ea Ee i ee a ee a

The ermal Detective — His Sherlock Holmes ae Methods Up-to-Date Scientific Sleuthing in the Kaiser's Capital Has London’s Scotland Yard Sur- passed and American Police Methods for Organization and Detail, Yankee Investigator, Who Has Studied Systems in Twenty-two European Cities. Says Raymond B. Fosdick. By Raymond B. Fosdick, Author of **‘European Police Systems.’’ N a night in May, 1913, an unknown man was shot down in Potsdammerstrasse, Berlin. Apparently nobody saw the af- fray. A ‘patrolman on his beat, at 4 o'clock in the morning, stumbled across the dead body. Similar circumstances in an American city would have resulted in the following procedure: The patrolman would have notified headquarters; headquarters would have issued orders to have the body removed to the morgue; an autopsy would have been performed; the Coroner's jury would have declared the man murdered by a person or persons unknown; an‘1 finally, either at the end of these proceedings or concurrently with them, the police de- tectives would have set out to establish the identity of the guilty party, armed only with the knowledge that the murder had been committted on a certain night in a certain street. Now, what happened in Berlin when the patrolman came upon the dead body in the street? First, witheut in any way touching the body, he rapped with his sword hilt for the patrolman on the neighboring beat. This officer he dispatched to the nearest telephone to notify headquarters.. Headquarters immediately sum- moned from their beds the members of the Murder Commission. Now a murder commission is a small group of specially picked men under the charge of a ranking officer in the Detective Department. It con- sists of three or four officials of the detective force, a police surgeon and a photographer, assisted by as many plain clothes men as are necessary for the case. A new commission is appointed each month in the Berlin de- partment to handle murder cases which may occur in that period. But no commission is allowed to handle more than one murder at a time. If the existing com- mission already has a case, a second commission is immediately appointed. Within half an hour from the time that the patrol- man notified headquarters, the members of the commis- sion were at the scene of the murder, brought there in automobiles dispatched from the nearest police stations to their homes. Several members of the commission carried what is known as “murder satchels.” These satchels, arranged like a doctors bag or valise, con- tained such articles as might be necessary for their work: Microscopes in different shapes and sizes, spe- cial instruments for measuring footprints, litmus paper, acids of various strength, powder to reproduce finger prints, plastic clay to model the impressions left by weapons or instruments, measuring tapes, etc. These bags, carefully packed and ready for instant use, stand at the bedside of every member of a murder commis- sion. Upon arriving at the scene of the crime the de- tectives went methodically to work. First, they drew a chalk line in a great circle on the pavement and side- walk, 30 feet around the corpse. Then placing a board in the circle to step on, so as not to disturb any foot- BERN e we J #5) The clew found in a draguon’s saber bled .. SUNDAY MAGAZINE--ST. LOUIS POST-DISP4 TCH--MAY 9, 1915. Far Outstripped prints that might have been left by the murderer, they made a superficial ex- amination of the body to determine the method of death. The body, however, was not touched or dis- turbed in any way. After ascertaining that the man had been shot twice in the head and that the motive was apparently robbery, in- asmuch as-his pockets had been pulled inside out, they sent their plain-clothes men all through the neigh- borhood to apprehend any suspicious looking persons who could not give a sat- AN RS YY : \ se ) AN Oy maces \ " % x a . . | ths ul ~ \ , 4 Sat . f » ; es j “NV NN ‘ ‘ \ x <h AAA Ny a URRAE | SS b ; “\ ANS 2 ’' + . isfactory account of them- (L selves. Meanwhile they waited for daylight. At the first crack of dawn they began a minute search of every single inch of the area within the circle. Nothing was apparently too small or trivial to escape observation. The corpse was photographed from both sides and from above, the pho- tographer standing on a stepladder to obtain the latter picture. The exact position of the body as it lay across the curb was determined by careful measurements. And what did this exhaustive search bring to light? Ap- parently nothing. A single burnt match, which had been torn from a paper block of matches, was the only tangible thing found. The footprints were blurred and confusing. Evidently a scuffle had taken place before the shooting, bug no clew seemed to offer itself. So, armed with ei easurements and their photographs, the detectives withdrew to headquarters, ta‘ing the body with them. They also took with them the burnt stub of the match, carefully wrapped in cotton! The autopsy which immediately followed merely ver fied their earlier impressions. The man had been shot twice in the head with a 38-caliber revolver. He was unknown, with nothing on him to identify him directly or indirectly. He was apparently a working man. Was the case allowed to drop? Did the detectives stop work? Not at all. First they measured the soles of the man’s shoes, Then they photographed them. Then they did what to an outsider might seem the most absurd thing of all; they photographed the burnt stub of the match which they had so mysteriously taken with them. Meanwhile the plain clothes men had brought in to headquarters three or four suspicious looking characters from the neighborhood of Potsdammerstrasse. These men were searched, but nothing of value was found—no weapons of any kind—merely a few trinkets, some keys, some odd coins, tobacco, matches, etc. But there was one thing found in the pocket of one of the prisoners which to the detectives seemed of extraordinary im- portance: a paper block of matches! Apparently they had been looking for it, and they did to it what they did to almost everything at the Berlin police headquarters—they photographed it! This photograph they greatly enlarged. Then they enlarged the photograph of the burnt stub until the end of the match looked as if it were about eight inches broad. Then with fine and delicate instruments they measured the lacerations in the block of matches and the ragged ends of the burnt stub. But this latter step was hardly necessary, for by a glance at the enlarged photo- graphs a layman could have told that the burnt stub found at the scene of the crime had been torn from the block of matches discovered in the pocket of one of the suspects. This practically ended the case as far as the detectives were concerned. Under adroit ques- tions, the man confessed his guilt and was sen- tenced to a long term by the court. If this story did not represent the actual daily work of the Berlin detective department it might be considered worthy of the brain of a Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes is coming to life in the efforts of the German police authorities to create a scientific method of crime detection. True, much of the inspiration for this work comes from an Austrian, Dr. Hans Gross of the University of Gratz, but it is in Germany, es- pecially in Berlin, that the study is being most successfully developed. In the criminal labora- tory of the Berlin police headquarters they are examining the finger prints on scurrillous an- onymous ietters sent to the Kaiser: they are making hair and blood the subject of micro- photography; they are analyzing inks and de- veloping a definite science of detecting footprints. Berlin “‘Sleuths’’ starting work on a murder case. In Beriin and in other German cities the micro-chem- ist is an indispensible element. In Hamburg some years ago a man was found murdered in a vacant lot. Evi- dently a fierce struggle had ensued before the crime was committed, for the hands of the murdered man still clutched the coat which he had torn from the back of his assailant. This coat furnished the sole clew. Its pockets were absolutely empty. It bore no indication of any kind as to the place of its purchase or manufacture. In most countries the mystery would have gone un- solved. No so in Germany. The police placed the coat in a strong, well-gummed paper bag which was beaten with sticks as vigorously and for as fong a time as could be done without the paper tearing. The bag was left alone for a short time and then opened, and the dust which had settled in the bottom was carefully collected by the micro-chemist of the d-partment. A thorough examination showed that the dust was com- posed of woody, fibrous matter, finely pulverized, and the deduction which was drawn was that the cout be- longed to some person who was accustomed to work with wood, perhaps a carpenter or sawyer. Further ex- amination, however, showed that in the woody, fibrous matter was a large amount of gelatine and powdered glue. Inasmuch as this mat:rial is not ordinarily used by carpenters or sawyers, toe further deduction was drawn that the garment belonged to a joiner or cabinet maker. Armed with this information the police effected the arrest of a man livins in the neighborhood, who sub- sequentiv confessed his guilt. The poim which the German detectives made is that nothing is too trivial to escape examination and analysis. So ther examine chemically the dust in the grooves of pocket krives, determining in this way with the great- est certainuy where the knife has been and for what purpose it haz been used. So, too, they analyze the dust in the leather folds of a purse or a card case. in the ontside edge of a watch case, or the mud on the soles of a man’s shoes. Microscopic examination is made of the stains on clothes or on weapons. Thus, a German army officer was convicted of murder under the follow- ing circumstances: A citizen was cut down in the garden of a cafe, evi- dently by the blow of a saber. At the request of the police, all the sabers of the dragoons who had leave from the barracks at the time of the murder were col- lected and submitted to microscopic examination. No trace of blood was found upon any of them, but one had a tiny little notch in its cutting edge, in which was a fragment of a blade of grass, visible only under the miscroscope. As the blade of grass in the notch had been sufficiently protected by the sheath of the saber to prevent it from drying, it was possible to say that it could not have been sticking to the saber for any length of time, since it had preserved its freshness. The dragoon to whom the saber belonged must have, as indeed he afterwards confessed, cleaned his blade upon the wet grass after faving delivered the blow. He had then wiped it with a cloth, but the fragment of grass remained in the notch. Beginning with this evidence, the police were able to weave a chain about the officer which ultimately brought him to justice. Special study has beefi made by the German authori- ties of hair and teeth. Indeed, scientific treatises have been written on these subjects in their relation to the detection ef criminals, and some astonishing results have been obtained by the German detectives, In Lelp- zig, some years ago, a citizen was assaulted and gravely wounded on the street one night, by an unknown per- son, who, after robbing his victim, ran away, dropping his cap in his flight. The cap was of a nondescript type, but a careful examination of its interior showed two (Continued on Page 1;}.) 5 _ PAGE THIRTEEN,

That night Saxe slept, was asleep long before the lights in Metzburg windows went out, or even the early revelers had lett the tavern and the wine cellar. If tomorrow he must start upon a search for Bergolet, many wakeful nights might be in store for him; it was well to rest while Le could. He slept soundly, too, yet not without dreaming. dreams into which a woman cume with disturbing influence CHAPTER IX. From Dark to Dawn. WILIGHT was gathering in the deep glades of the forest, though in the open it was still day- light. There was no wind in the coming night to set the trees complaining and murmuring to- gether; no sound of a horseman came from a distant road, no traveler nor homeward bound woodman came into the clearing by either of the three green tracks which met here. Only the slow whirring of wings as some heavy bird rose from its feeding ground and sailed lazily upwards, bro*e the silence. At intervals a bird rose and sailed upwards, and then, with a sudden whirr which filled the air and startled the echoes, a cloud of birds called warning to one another and, rising quicly, beat a hasty flight westwards. Strained ears could not catch the sound whicl had frightened them for some little time,. but it came presently—the jingle of bit and spur, the quick fall of horses’ hoofs on the yielding turf, growing louder and louder until the hunting party straggled up the curved track into the clearing. Men and beasts looked rather jaded, and the one woman of the party seemed discontented as she glanced about her. The man beside her dismounted. “Shall we call a halt for a few m‘nutes, Cousin? They call that the Gallows Oak, an unsavory name, but it marks a spot where game is often found. Our way lies through the ravine yonder; we may find sport as we pass, before we strike the Festenhausen road at the far ond.” “It is too late for sport, Karl,’ the Duchess said as he helped her to dismount. Then she seated herself on the fallen limb and looked up into the oak tree. “Why the Gallows Oak?” Kar! did not know and called to a huntsman for an explanation. “They say a man was once hanged on it, Your Grace.” “On that outstretching branch, I suppose,” said Karl, “and that is why the branch died. I like my legend com- plete.” “We get an incomplete legend at the end of a poor dav, Karl,” the Duchess returned. “We seem to have found all the places where no sport was to be had. Whether that is the fault of the game or the incompe- tency of the huntsman I cannot say, but I do know the journey was hardly worth while.” “It wasn't only for the sport you came, Cousin, but also to visit your good people of Festenhausen.”’ “You spoke of them very opportunely this morning. They served as an excellent excuse for coming, but I am rather sorry I came.” “We may get enough sport to satisfy you in the ravine yonder.” “Tl am not thinking of that.” “You are rot thinking of Brandenburg, surely?” said Karl. “Yes. The eager breath of the new day was in my head this morning. but Kevenfelt was right. I ought to have remained in Metzburg to. welcome the Elector.” “It would have teen like obeying his commands.” “So I said this morning,” she answered, “but I was wrong. | think my self-will makes me petulant at times.” “T cannot honestly deny it, Cousin, but I swear it is one of your many charms.” “Tl warrant. Kevenfelt doesn’t think so,” said the Duchess. “I have a mind to return to Metzburg to- night.” “It is impossible.” “Whyt “Think of the journey. It would mean being in the saddle all night, and reaching the city at dawn. Be- sides, the forest is difficult at night. Start from les- tenhausen at dawn if you will. At the earliest the Elector can hardly arrive before tomorrow.” “Very well,” said the Duchess, rising. “Let us make Festenhausen as soon as possible. I shall not be con- tent until I am again in Metzburg.”’ She had reached her horse, and Karl was in the act of putting her into the saddle, when there came the quick beating of hoofs. Along the level track came a galloping horse at full stretch, riderless it seemed at first, so limp was the man lying almost prone upon him. Perhaps it was only by instinct that the animal pulled up short on reaching the clearing, and the rider rolled to the ground, green and scarlet showing under his dirty and tattered coat. “The jester!’’ someone exclaimed. Only for an instant Bergolet lay where he had fallen, then he crawled to the tree trunk from which the Duch- ess had risen a few moments ago. “Water! For the love of heaven, water!” It was the Duchess who took a flask quickly from her saddle and gave him drink. He drank greedily, vet with every sign of exhaustion, only the eyes between his half-closed lids were keen. The horse came and nosed him and demanded the Duch- ess’ attention, too. She patted his neck, noting that the animal showed little sign of distress, and she turned quickly to look at the fool. “What is the meaning of this? Why are you here?” she asked, ta‘ing the flask. Bergolet tried to speak, but failed. ‘“‘He found a horse after all, Cousin,”’ said Karl. “You were right, it seems, and the fellow has disobeyed vour ccmmands. The unwonted exercise seems to have knocked the life out of him, but if you will we can give this tree a reason for its name.”’ “The tree?” said Bergolet, looking up. “The Gallows Oak, fool. Does the name appeal to you?” “I've suffered too much to care what happens. Oh, if I'd only been contented to stick to my ass.” “Why were you not in attendance this morning?’ as’:ed the. Duchess.. : “it's a long story. I'’—— “How did you manage to leave the city?” “That's a longer story still,’ and Bergolet laughed foolishly. “It think he is still feeling the effects of the tavern,” said Karl. “It was difficult leaving the city: they wanted to arrest me at the gate.” “By my orders,” said the Duchess. “Oh, what a foolish jest,” sighed Bergolet, playing with the thong of her riding whip, and then giving it a little jerk to attract her attention. “It grows late, Cousin; shall we ride for Festen- hausen?’’ said Karl. “Aye, Prince, ride on and leave the Duchess and me to follow,”’ said Bergolet, and with a show of pain and stiff limbs he struggled to a sitting position on the tree trunk. “I'm to be told why my arrest was ordered.” Karl moved away with an oath. “More drink,’”’ Bergolet cried, and as he seized the flask he caught the Duchess’ hand, forcing her to come nearer to him. ‘Have a care, mistress, there is treach- ery. “Shall we ride, Cousin?’ said Karl. “Your fool has delayed us too long.” Bergolet was drinking when the Prince turned round, and he at once began to struggle to his feet. “That's true. It’s getting dark, and I should hate to spend a night in the forest. It’s uot robbers I fear, we're too big a company for robbers to attack, it's the devils and the ghosts I’m thinking of. The only weapons against them are prayers, and I expect wee poorly armed that way. Mistress, will you order someone to put me into the saddle, or it is certain I shall never get there. My joints creak so much that I can pity a door with rusty hinges.” “A night in the forest alone might be an excellent punishment for him,” said Karl as be put the Duchess in her saddle. gt She did not answer. Her face was set and for a mo- m2nt she seemed to consider the advice; then she mo- tioned to a trooper with her whip to help Bergolet. “Oh, my joints!” he cried as the man took hold of him rather roughly. “Steady. You're more used to throwing sacks on to a packhorse than helping a woman to mount, I'll swear.” He clung on to the saddle, looking so much like a half- empty sack that there was a titter of laughter as his horse walked quietly to the Duchess’ side. “They’re old friends evidently,” said the jester. “Oh, if 1 could only ride, what an improvement I should be to the company. “Rorward!’ Karl cried, swinging himself into the saddle. “There is still a long road between us and Festenhausen.”’ “And I am likely to delay you,’ said Bergolet, “for I cannot gallop.” “We'll see you don't aelay us,” answered the Prince. The first horseman went carefully down the dip into the ravine. It was steep and some of the animals re- Continued from Page 7. quired coaxing. It was necessary to descend in single file. Two troopers were behind the Duchess, the Prince and Bergolet on either side of her, as she halted for a moment at the top of the dip. Without warning the jester’s horse became suddenly restive, and putting down his head lashed out with his hind legs. The troopers behind him were barely able to get out of the way. Every moment it seemed that Bergolet must tumble from the saddle. He rolled from side to side and then, in the very act of falling, shot out a hand towards the Duchess to save himself. He caught her horse's bride. and in steadying himself brought the animal sharply round. “You fool!” cried Karl. “A cut with the whip, Cousin, or the idiot will unseat you.” “Ride!” whispered Bergolet. “Round the oak. Ride, for there are devils behind us.” Almost unconsciously the Duchess obeyed, and then Bergolet turned in his saddle and shouted: “Come, Prince, this is the road we have to take. Don’t wait, Your Grace, he'll follow. Every man of your company is bought, and robbers are waiting in the ravine.”’ “I don't believe it,” she said. “Prove me a liar afterwards and then hang me if you will, but ride now. Every man in that company yonder has oiled his.palm with a bribe.” “Every man!” * Again Bergolet turned in his saddle. “The Prince is coming,” he said. “And a trooper fol- lows him—two, three. I think Prince Karl has dis- covered the treachery. We shall know when he over- takes usi”’ They were galloping along the green track by which Bergolet had come, and the Duchess glanced at the man beside her. There was little like an empty sack about him now. The dirty coat which he wore over his scar- let and green dress made him a grotesque figure, but he rode easily, and was astride an animal of mettle. “The Prince gains on us,” said Bergolet presently, “and the three troopers ride steadily.” “Thinking their Duchess is as great a fool as her jest- er, no doubt,” she answered. “Or working out some lie to save their skins.” said 3ergolet. They rode on in silence, the horses racing side by side. Then the Duchess checked her pace. “We will let the Prince overtake us,” she said. The jester did not answer. If Prince Kar] did not believe in the treachery, he might easily persuade the Duchess that she had been deceived. Even now she might turn back towards Festenhausen. He watched the Prince as he urged his horse forward. Was he honest? What if he, too, should be in this plot? The possibility of such a thing made Bergolet regret that his only weapon was the end of a pointed stake tied to a strip of his torn cloak. It was strange the Prince Should have been so deceived in the men who formed the hunting party. He was alone now; the troopers who had followed him were not in sight. Either their horses were beaten, or they had given up the pursuit. “Ride, Sandra, there is a trap, I fear,’’ Karl said as he overtook them. “We were a strong company, she said as she rode on. “I thing the devils were not to be trusted, for they tried to prevent my following you.”’ “Had you not the choosing of the men?” she asked sharply. “I'll see to their punishment, too,” he returned fiercely. “What was the scheme, jester?” “Il am too much of a fool to understand it clearly,” Bergolet answered. “It only heard that the Duchess was to be waylaid in the forest, that there was no man with her on whom she could depend, and I thought if | could warn her in time she might give me-.a crown or two to spend.” “You shall have a crown for every man I hang in this affair.” “Hanging is a big matter, not at all to my liking since | have stood underneath the Gallows Oak. Besides a crown a man seems tO me poor pay, considering the risk.” “We are not yet out of danger, so it is no time for jesting,’ said Karl. “In what tavern did you overhear the hatching of this plot?” “Tavern! I went into no tavern to hear it.”’ “Did it come from some disappointed and revengeful woman, then?” “| will tell Her Grace the whole story when we are safe in Metzburg, and when her crowns have become acquainted with my pocket.

" . ~% ee ; Col. Goethals’ Own Story of Building the Panama Canal “onimued irom pave monthly basis was to receive no pay for overtime work required of him, but as compensation and in considera- tion for such overtime as was anticipated and expected, such an employe could be granted six weeks’ leave of absence with pay for every 12 months’ service, and such leave was to be cumulative for a period of two years. The leave for one year could be taken at the expiration of eight months’ continued service. This leave also carried with it the privilege of a $20 rate each way on steamers of the Panama Railroad, operating between New York and Colon, for the em- ploye and members of his family. It was expressly stated that “This grant of leave is not to be considered a vested right, but is made to promote the welfare and best interests of the service.” Compensation for such leave was made on the return of the employe to the isthmus. The compensation of employes appointed with rate of pay per hour was based on an eight-hour day, with time-and-a-haif for overtime, including Sundays and holidays. Employes of this class were not allowed vacation leave, though they were allowed the reduced steamship rates when travelling on leave at their own expense. A demand for increases in pay had been made by locomotive engineers and conductors, and by steam shovel engineers, cranemen and firemen. Not- withstanding the high rates of pay, demand for in- creases in pay was constant, and the other classes of employes were waiting to see the outcome of the de- mand made by the fransportation men and steam shovel opeiators, as the whole wage scale seemed to hinge on the pay given to these classes. This condition of af- fairs- with respect to labor on the Isthmus developed in the early part of 1907, just as the work, and particu- farly that of excavation in Culebra Cut, was getting into full swing. When work began with steam sbovels, vrews were peid on the basis of $190 per month for engineers and $165 for cranemen. They claimed that they had been promised a bonus for each additional thousand vards excavated per month per shovel over 25,000 yards. In view of the limited transportation facilities, which pre- vented equal treatment to all in regard to this bonus, Mr. Stevens, in 1905, increased the wages of all steam shovel engineers to $210 and of the steam shovel crane- men to $185 per month; at the same time “gold” fire- men were placed on the rolls at $83.33; the crews worked eight hours per day. In January, 1907, the general secretary and treasurer of the Internationa] Brotherhood of Steam Shovel and Dredge Men, acting in compliance with a resolution adopted by the general Executive Board of the order, requested an increase in wages for the men on the Isthmus, engineers to receive $300, cranemen $250 and firemen $110 in lieu of the scale then in force. At the same time he took up the question with the President of the United States, claiming that the men on the Isthmus were the highest type of steam shovei men and that the wages paid elsewhere for similar work war- ranted an increase for the Panama service, supporting this last statement by data of wages paid in the states. He requested that the new scale be adopted, effeetive March 1, 1907. The President referred this to the commission, ask- ing for a report and verification of the figures, express- ing the intention of submitting the facts to Congress if found correct. A comparison made by the commis- sion of the wages paid on the Isthmus with those paid by $81 firms throughout the United States showed that the engineers at Pamama were receiving 30 per cent higher pay than the average paid by firms in the United States, while the cranemen were getting 80 per cent higher pay; and in both cases no consideration was taken of the fact that the men on the Isthmus were provided with continuous work, free furnished quarters, lights, fuel and other privileges granted employes of the commission. Under the circumstances the President stated that while he desired to have the highest class of men that could possibly be secured, and wished as high a wage paid as could be given consistently in order to secure such men, in view of the data presented to him he did not feel justified in instructing that the wages of steam shovel men be raised at that time. He realized further that if the wage scale of the shovel men was raised it would mean a demand for increase by all other classes of mechanics. However, if a continued increase in the wages of workmen in the 'Jnited States warranted in- crease in the wages of Isthmian employes, he would see that the necessary action was taken. At the time this question was under consideration - by the authorities at Washington, the steam shovel men on the Isthmus asked for a readjustment of the wage scale, requesting the same increase that had been pro- posed to the Washington authorities. After receiving a report from the various officials, Mr. Stevens gave a hearing to the committee having charge of the matter, as the result of which he notified the men that he was unable to comply with their request. On receipt of this information the committee asked permission to visit Washington to lay their claims be- fore the President. This request was transmitted to Washington, and the Secretary of War (Mr. Taft) re- plied that, as he was to visit the Isthmus some time during March, the President directed that the delega- tion should await his arrival on the Isthmus. In the meantime, however, they were instructed to send al} the facts in the case to bim for such consideration as he would be able to give it prior to his arrival. Secretary Taft arrived on the Isthmus on March 30, 1907, and gave a hearing to the various committees a few days later. When he informed them at the con- clusion of the hearing that he would take the nfatter under consideration, advising them of his conclusion from Cuba, where he was going, the committee of steam shovel men insisted on an immediate settlement of the question. They had waited, they said, several months for an adjustment of the matter and did not intend to submit to a longer delay. The Secretary of War replied that if that was their attitude, if they could not afford him time to consider the question and confer with the President, he would drop the matter there and then and they could take whatever course they pleased. This had its effect, and the committee concluded to await the decision which Mr. Taft thought should reach the Isthmus by the mid- dle of the month. Secretary Taft left for Cuba, und on April 7 directed that one of the Panama Railroad steamers should put in at Guantanamo, Cuba, to pick up an important letter. By cable advice, it appeared that this was to be a copy of a letter addressed to the President making’ recom- mendation in the questions at issue, and, if approved, the men would be advised of the decision by April 16 or 17. The decision, however, was not received until May 6, in the form of a cable message giving the changes that were to be made in the letter sent from Guantanamo, and so modified it was sent out to the ‘ommittees. By its terms no increase in wages would be given te the steam shovel crews, but the qualified locomotive en- gineers were to-be paid $210 and qualified conductors $190 a month, nine hours to constitute a day’s work, all time in excess to be credited and to be allowed in days of eight hours as additional leave or to be taken on the Isthmus. The time so credited was denominated ‘lav-over days.” Overtime for steam shovel crews Was to be compensated in the same way. Longevity was to, be granted on the basis of five per cent increase for the’ . first year’s service and three per cent increase for each succeeding year, and was made applicable to all skilied workmen, engineers, conductors and mechanics. The following day the steam shovel men from Gatun, learning that they were not to get a flat increase of five pe cent, which was their first information, re- signed, and endeavored to secure similar action by the men working in Culebra Cut. The wmen at Gatun decided to quit at the close of ihe day's work, and, being unable to communicate with those on other parts of the work, went over on an early train to Culebra and proceeded through the cut, where the shovels were working, and urged the men to leave. This excited one of the commissioners, who feared that violence would result as well as damage to the equip- ment and other public property, and he induced the chief clerk of the chairman’s office to telephone to the marines stationed on the Isthmus to patrol the cut, remove the agitators, and protect Government property. Fortunately, the commanding officer refused to com- ply unless the request came from me, but said he would hold the men in camp ready for such action should it be desired. When I returned to the office at noon and learned of this state of affairs the chief clerk was in- structed to countermand his request, for no emergency existed warranting such action, and the move was ill- advised and might be productive of trouble. That night another meeting of the steam shovel men was called which resulted in a vote to leave, and out of a total of 48 steam shovels that had been at work, in two days’ time only 13 shovels were left with crews A large majority of the men had no desire to leave, but feared that should they remain it would work to theil disadvantage after they left the Isthmus, so that somé¢ of them asked permission to be absent until the agi- tators left the Isthmus or they were able to determing the course they should pursue; as a result, the ma jority left the service. The mechanical trades had received longevity, which was entirely unexpected; the transportation crews had received a substantial increase in pay, so that the senti- ment was against the steam shovel men, and numerous applications were received for the vacancies created. Crews were obtained from the mechanical trades and . in some instances from clerks with mechanical train- ing. The disturbance affected the work and reduced the output for the time being, but the action taken had a wholesome effect on all classes of employes, for the steam shovel crews had appeared to be indispensable, yet the outcome showed conclusively that defection by them or any other one class of men could not tie up the whole work. 1915, by Charles Scribner's Sons.

Your despised son-in-law, George Smith.” Purpham later sent the money, amounting to $520. In the meantime, Smith had persuaded Miss Burnham to have her life insured in his favor for $2509, and the first premium, $120, was paid on the day the nurse’: savings were sent to ber by her father. In December they took lodgings in Regent road, Blackpool. On Dec. 10, Smith took his wife to a physi- cian in the neighborhood and asked him to prescribe for severe headaches which he said she suffered. ‘That, remarked the prosecutor, “seemed a remarkable paraile] to the fit suffered by Miss Mundy at Herne Bay two days before she succumbed.” Early on the morning of Dec. 12 Smith and his wiie went out for a walk, returning at about 8 o'clock. Miss Burpham asked the landlady to prepare a bath for her and went upstairs with her husband. “About twenty minutes later the landlady noticed that water was running down the kitchen wall, as if a quan- tity had been spilt in the bathroom above. Just then she heard Smith call out: “Oh, Alice!” That happened to be the landlady’s Christian name, and she went to the foot of the stairs and asked if Smith had called her. “No.” he said, “I was calling my wife. I want her to be sure and put the light out in the bathroom, but she doesn’t answer. Go for Dr. Billings. She knows him.” The physician who prescribed for Miss Burnham's headache found her drowned in the bathtub, with her head submerged at the foot of the tub. With Smith's aid he attempted to resuscitate her, but in vain. Again a verdict of accidental death was returned, and Smith collected the insurance of $2500. A few days later he was with Miss Pegler at Bristol. °@- In June, 1914, Smith made the acquaintance of Miss Margaret Elizabeth Lofty, a governess and daughter of a clergyman in Bristol, and on Dec. 17 they were mar- ried at Bath, Smith taking the name of John Lloyd. She was 38 vears old. On the same day they took lodgings at 14 Bismarck road, Highgate. Miss Lofty wrote to ber mother: “No doubt you will be surprised to know I was mar- ried today to a gentleman, John Lloyd. He is a thor- ough Christian man whom |! have known since June. I met him in Bath. He was then going to Canada, and returned to England in September. I! have every proof of bis love for me. He has been honorable and has kept his word to me in everything. He is such a nice man. I am certain you would like him.» I am perfectly happy.” Within twenty-four hours afterward she was dead, but not before Smith had gone to a physician in the neighborhood for medicine to treat his wife for fainting srells. The woman who kept the lodging testified that Miss Lofty had her breakfast in bed on the morning of Dec. 18 and did not arise during the day. Smith said she had a headache. At 8 o’clock in the evening Smith as’ed the landlady to prepare a bath for his wife. She was ironing in the kitchen and heard splashing sounds from above. | About 15 minutes after Miss lofty went inte the bathroom the landlady heard Smith come downstairs. He went into the sitting room and for about ten min- utes played the organ. Then he went out into th: street, returning a few minutes later with a bag of tomatoes which he said were for “Mrs. Lloyd’s sup- per.” He said-he would go upstairs and ask whether she would like them. Half-way up he stopped and called out to her, and then exelaimed to the landlady: “Mv God, she doesn’t answer.” ————> +s ° Continued from Page 3. *@- A moment later he cried: ‘“She’s in the bath: come and help me. The landlady started to call another lodger to their aid, but Smith stopped her, saying: “Don’t leave me alone.’’ They found Miss Lofty drowned in the bathtub. It was discovered that just before her marriage Miss Lofty withdrew $100 of savings from a postal bank and insured her life for $3500, making a will by which the insurance was left to Smith. He was making arrange- ments to collect the money when he was arrested on a charge of giving a false name at the marriage registrr, on obtaining*a license to marry Miss Lofty. The entire story of his marital adventures came out, with the dis- covery of the suspicious deaths of three of the women he married by drowning in bathtubs. Smith protested that this was only a “phenomenal coincidence,” but the crown held it sufficient, with the other evidence, to ar- raign him for murder. é In each of the three alleged murders, other persons were in the house at the time and heard no unisual sounds from the bathroom. The prosecution held tbat if a woman’s head were suddenly thrust under » ater, her instant strangling would prevent her from making an outcry. She would die silently under the water Her only chance would occur if she were able tw break loose from the grasp of the murderer.. Smith was a man of extraordinary muscular strength, according tu one witness, and said he had once been in the arniy as a gymnastic instructor. He asked the witness to feel the muscles in his arm, and the witness found they were remarkably developed. Smith was born at Bow, on Jan. 11, 1872, the son of the late George Thomas Smith, an insurance agent. Smith at various times represented himself as a land - agent in Canada, a picture restorer and a gentleman of independent means. WHEN HAT is true courage? Highest in the world’s scale of heroism is the cool, careless audacity that marches up to the mouth of the eannon with a flower in its cap and a frivolous song on its lips, a8 serene as on parade. Such bravery is really the very lowest in the scale—if, indeed, it be in the scale at all, except in the sense that zero is a part of the scale. It is not courage at all, but sheer lack of sensibility, either from ignorance or from accustomed- ness. It is, in quality, the same mental attitude in which the ignorant, impassive mine-worker walks around in the fire-damps; and when they explode, he, too, becomes a popular hero. : Next highest in the world’s gauge—-next lowest in the true scale—is the courage that dares a quick danger in a sudden emergency. In itself, this is hardly a more COWARDICE genuine brand of courage than the first, except that it involves a more or less unselfish disciplining of the man previous to the demand that is made on him. Even so, it is more a matter of habit than of quality. The fact that there is no time to count the cost robs it of any deliberate merit. Many a man, in fact, is sur- prised into a heroism which is really no part of him. Certainly it is no high grade of courage. Rather, let us say, it is a negative sort ef quality, to which, if a man does not respond on demand, we conclude there is some positive quality of poltroonery about him. | Still lower in the world’s estimation——still higher in actual worth—is the eourage which calmly and delib- erately holds its course of duty in the face of almost certain calamfty and misfortune; the quiet resolution t- meet one’s fate in the face of foregone disaster and UE BRAVERY disappointment. Of all forms of heroism, none will s9 surely win the love and confidence of human hearts, which is worth a hundred times the admiration of human minds, as this. . But there is a yet higher quality of courage, the high- est cf all in the true scale, buf_so little esteemed in the popular mind that it will hardly be accorded a place in the scale at all. It is the courage of cowardice; the bravery of the man who is afraid, but who, in mortal fear, with throbbing heart and sweating brow, forces himself to do the thing from which he shrinks. This, which the world sneers at as cowardice, is the highest, courage of all. In fact, it is the only true courage. For it sets all the agonized effort of a man's soul against all the fears and terrors that the powers of darkness can bring upon bim.

McCormack, who possesses the most mellifluous of voices and who has trained i to the highest degree of refinement, is undoubtedly the most popular singer befor the American public. His income is reckoned greater even than that of Caruso, an it is estimated that his earnings last season, through his concerts and the sale of h phonograph records, amounted to $75,000. He is best known as a lyric singer, particularly of old Irish ballads, but he mad his debut as an operatic tenor. He sang in “Rigoletto” with Mme. Tetrazzini, an as a member of the Metropolitan Opera Co. made his principal successes in the role of Rudolfo in “La Boheme,” Pinkerton in “Butterfly,” the Count in “Don Giovanni and the title part in “Faust.” He will return to the operatic stage this winter, as member of the Chicago Opera Co.
