TO HAVE COST CITY $750,000 oneal Lawyer to Sue Officials Who Have Never Put Into Effsct New Meter Rate Established in Ordinance Passed in 1913. ad a “DEFENSIVE” The attention of the city’s fiscal authorities was called today to a blun- der which has continued for more than two years, and which is believed to have cost the city hundreds of thousands of dollars in water rate revenue. Charles P. Comer, a lawyer, who has represented several private consumers in water rate cases, announced that he | would file suit, on behalf of the Citizens’ Protective Committee, a body whose membership he did not specify, against Mayor Kiel, Gollector Koeln, Water Commissioner Wall and Claude B. Bur- ton, Supervisor of Water Rates Assess- ments, for $750,000, which he alleges was lost by the admitted blunder. Comer’s discovery, which he is the first person to make public, is that the new meter water rate, fixed in an ordi- nance approved in April, 1913, has never been put into effect by the water rates office. Instead, the office has gone on making out bills under the old rate. The loss to the water revenues, Comer esti- enacted in April, 1913, placed the rates }on a meter basis for all large consum- ers, manufacturers and others alike, and provided a rate of 6 cents to 15 cents a hundred cubic feet, according to quantity used. The lowest rate, 6 cents a hundred cubic feet, is for con- sumers using more than 500000 cubic feet in six months. (A cubic foot is seven and one-half gallons, 100 cubic feet 750 gallons.) The increase to man- ufacturers over the old 8-cent rate was considerable. The ordinance which made this change in rates was enacted before the new charter was voted on, and the adop- tion of the charter did not affect it. The water rates office went on mak- ing assessments on the old basis, it is now adnritted, and has never put the new rate into effect. MARRIAGE PU ON RECORD Minister’s Wife and Daughter Acted as Witnesses—License Was in Due Form. The Rev. L. H. Manning pastor of the First Methodist Church of Petoskey, Post-Dispatch Episcopal Mich., told reporter today, the long-distance telephorie, that he married Miss Leith 17- year-old daughter of Mrs. T. G. Rat- cliffe of 50 Kingsbury place, and Harvey Ruth Jr., 19, of Poplar Blutf, Mo., at his home in the early part of September. He did not have his rec- a over Katheryn “Custom” May Be Defense.

Gasconade and A St. Charles jury came in at the noon Burton, who was in charge of water rates assessments and collection under the old charter, and who was chosen by the Efficiency Board six months ago to head the water rates assessment de- partment, admitted today that the mis- take had been made, as charged by Comer. He said he did not know what the difference in the two rates would amount to in the total. He learned only Daues, and was told that possibly ‘‘long established custom’’ might be held to justify a continuance of the old rate. Comer says long established custom has nothing to do with rates, and that when the law changes them, they should ve. changed. Counselor Daues was of the opinion, according to Burton, that the new schedule worked a hardship on man- ufacturers, and that thev would prob- ably demand a change which would make rates no higher than under the old scale. Comer said the granting of a lower rate to manufactur¢rs was a hardship on other consumers. Mayor Kiel, when told of the situa- ord at hand and could net give the exact date.

Simonds. It is a simple matter to condemn Bual- garia and Bulgarians for the course they seem to have entered, which brings a new and rea] peril to the al- lies. But simple justice to a people who have had for this country a real | admiration and have shown gratitude on many occasions for the services that Robert College has rendered to them, compels a fair statement of thejr cage. They owe their liberty ofiginally to Russia, but once freed of the Turk it was Russia which sought to hold them in a political servitude only leas hu- miliating than the Osmanli rule. It was Rusaja that procured the downfall of Alexander, a brave and patriotic Prince. It was'‘at the behest of Russia that Stambuloff was murdered, as he was the greatest and most patriotic of Balkan statesmen until the coming of the Greek Venizelos. To Great Britain is chargeable the fact that Macedonia was returned to the Turk at Berlin and the treaty of San Stefano, which would have liber- ated and united the Bulgar race, set aside. France has at all times been the champion of Greeks and Bulgar and Greek interests are utterly op- posed. Servia Violated Agreement. At the close of the first Balkan war Servia declined to carry out her agreement with Bulgaria and turn over to the Bulgars that pegrtion of Macedonia which had been assigned to Bulgaria by the Servo-Bhilgar ante-bellum agreement. Instead Servia made an alliance with Greece and Rumania. In this situation Bul- garia, having endeavored to obtain Macedonia by direct negotiations finally ylelded to Austrian sugges- tion and attacked her allies. Meantime the Czar had sought to prevent this break and finally tele- graphed the Bulgarian Ferdinand de- manding that he submit to a peace- ful settlement. Ferdinand declined, Bulgar troops attacked Greece and Servia and were defeated. Mean- while the Russian Czar permittea Rumania to attack Bulgaria in the rear. As a result Bulgaria was over- whelmed. At Bucharest Russia as- sented to the division of Bulgaria's conquests between Gréece and Servia and to the seizure by Rumania of Bul- garian lands between the Danube andi the Black Sea. To these losses Bulgaria has never been reconciled... She now means to get back all she lost. But Servia and Greece have declined to grant all she asked and Rumania has made no actual concessions. Turkey on the other hand, has ceded part of what she took back at the close of the second Balkan war. Hew Wivision Will Be Made, If Bulgaria now casts her lot with Germany she may expect to get all of Servian Macedonia. If Rumania remains neutral Germany will give her Russian Bessarabia and compel her to restore her stealings from Bulgaria. Greece wili be permitted to take Southern Albania, now claimed by Italy, and the islands the Italians have occupied in the Aegean: She too will then be com- pelled to cede lands desired by Bul- garia. But if Greece and Rumania keep their faith with Servia and en- ter the war against Bulgaria and the Central Powers, then the defeat of the allies will be followed by the re- arrangement of the Balkans to the greater advantage of Bulgaria, who will be the “first friend@” of the Teu- tonic Powers in the Balkans. On the other hand, if Buigaria stays neutral and the allies win, Servia wil! acquire Bosnia, Hersegovina and a part of Dalmatia; Rumania will get Tran- syivania and Bukovina; Greece will ,er lands in Ephirus and perhaps in Aaia Minor. Even tf a portion of Macedonia and of Thrace be assigned to Bulgaria she will remain permanently the small- est of the Balkan states. She will see her rivals increase in population and in wealth and she. will have no chance tv overtake them. Struggle for Supremacy. Taking ancient grievances, recent i:-- jurtes and future prospects into con- sideration, self-interest and not whiully unwarranted concern for their future. point toward a Bulgarian alignment with the central Powers. Even if they win she will become in a measure a German vassal. But if Russia gets Con- stantinople her state will be far more unsatisfactory. Finally, since the Bul- garian Czar is an Austrian by birth, ne is naturally susceptible to’ the Haps- burg influence. The war has actually resolved itsel! into a struggle for the supremacy of the’ near East. The possession of Con. stantinople will be one of the great factors in the peace that comes he: after. If Bulgaria enlists for the Kaiser the whole Dardanelles campaign may prove @ failure, unless the allies can beat the Germans to the Golden Horn. And such a result would, on the whole. be advantageous to the Bulgars, wnhv owe no one’ anything and have very real reasons for hating ali the allies. It is too soon to say Bulgaria is com- ing in; her mobilization may be a final threat to compel the granting of her demands. for Russian defeat, for Servian extinc- tion, and if she believes German suc- cess at all probable she will unhesitai- ingly elect for - Romanoff.

Symbad Gabriel, president of the Armenian Gen- eral Progressive Association in the United States, has received advices from Nubar Pasha, diplomatic representative in Paris of the Katholikos or head of the Armenian Chureh, in regard to the massacres of Armenians in Tu which is stated that “Christian mar- tyrdom has at no time assumed such. co- lossal proportions.” The letters containing the advices were received by Nubar Pasha from “au- thoritative sources” in Constantinople and Athens, and contain an appeal to the United States to “intercede and stop the persecutions.”’ Dr. Gabriel, in making public the let- ters today, said that, from information contained in them and from other re- ports he had received directly, he esti- mated that 450,000 Armenians had been put to death and 600,000 made homeless or exiled, out of @ population of 1,- 500,000. A letter from the source says that Armenians in all the cities and villages of the province of Cilicia have been deported en masse to the desert regions south of Aleppo. “The deported are not allowed to carry “At te desert assigned for their habi- tation, they find no houses, no work, no livelihood, only their graves.” The aged, the women and the children cniy are deported. Others are ‘at the front or employed with the convoys. The villages in the tlayets_of Can and Bitlis have been pillaged and the pop- yulations put to the sword, and all the Armenians of Kara-Hisar massacred except a few children, the letter con- tinues. “If the neutral Powers, especially the United States of America,” the lettér ‘-} concludes, “do not intercede to stop at once the persecutions of the people there will remain very few of the 1,500,090 Christian Armenians in the Turkish en- pire.

CARRIED DUT AT FUNERAL Hearse Drawn by Four “Spirited _ Horses”’ and “Good Preach- er’ Delivers Sermon. ARCHBISHOP PRESIDES Crowd at Dead Priest’s Church in Baden Overflows Into Lawn as Mass fs Said. , . .eV. The funeral of the Father David 8S. Phelan, editor of the West ern Watchman, and pastor of the Church of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, was held gt the church in Baden this morning, and was attended by a gathering several times larger than the capacity of the small edifice. Hundreds stood on the church Jawn during th@mass, at which Archbish- op Glennon presided. There was much favorable comment on the use of four black horses, which drew the hearse to the church, and which later drew the _ editor-priest’s body. to Calvary Cemetery. Fatia.: Phelan, in published directions for his funeral two years ago, had speciiicd that the hearse should be drawn vv “good, spirited horses, who will [rei that they are Bearing a friend to iis last home,.”” Notwithstanding this_re- quest, the first announcements of ibe funeral, printed in Wednesday’s papers, contained the word “‘Motor.”’” In _yester- day’s papers this word was changed “Carriages,’’ and not only the hearse, but nearly all the vehicles which wen: to the cemetery were horse-drawn. Other Wishes Carried Out. Other expressed wishes of Father Phe- lan were carried out in the chanting of the office for the dead, and in the sinxg- ing of the mags by the Rev. Father M. S. Ryan, who was celebrant. The Rev. Father J. J. McCabe was organist, and priests taking part in the mass, beside the Archbishop and Father Ryan, were Fathers Gilfillan, Godfrey, Brennan, Tannrath, Duggan and O’Rourke. Bish- op Tihen of Lincoln, Neb., sat near Archbishop Glennon in the sanctuary. The Rev. Father W. J. Dalton of Kan- sas City was also present, and later read the service at the grave. The Rev. Father P. W. Tallon of Visitation Church, a friend of Father Phelan, preached the sermon. In his article, already referred to, Father Phe- lan asked that the sermon be preached by “a good preacher, one who knows how to suit the facts to the exigencies of the occasio~.”’ and who wotld per- haps incline to kindness in his treat- ment of the subject, in view of the many hard thrusts he had received in his lifetime. Father Tallon emphasized three points in the life of Father Phelan. The. first was his originality and brilliancy of mind. The second was the way in which he brought those qualities to bear ‘n his work as priest, and the third was his use.of the same qualities in his more widely known Work as editor. An International Character. Through his weekly writings, tho speaker said, Father Phelan became an international character. ‘‘In writing vi , the priesthood he wrote as a piophet. “.) * wrrors of judgment there were, but the.’ were as whitecaps on the ocean wavc. We remember only his greatness, his loyalty and the truth he defended."’ In compliance with Father -Phelan’s Wish, that there should be no ‘unseemly haste’’ about his funeral, the greatest deliberation was shown in the move- ments which followed the mass. The bell was tolled at five-minute intervals, instead of the customary one-minute in- tervals, and the procession was formed slowly, and moved at the most leisurely pace. Pallbearers Members of Parish, The active pallbearers were members of Mount Carmel parish—Edwarda (YToole, William Weightman, Theodore Wegmann, William Godfrey, William T. Carney, Edward Dowling, John Ferraro _@nd Edward Prendergast. oe From daylight until the beginning of the mass, a line of men, women and children passed through the church aisle, viewing the dead priest in his robes. This was a continua- tion of the lying in state of the day ‘before, and was in compliance with his quaintly worded request that he should be “laid out” leng enough for everyone whom he had offended to come and see that he was dead.

She thought that unfair, that she might be taking a place needed by some poorer girl. She had understood the reverse was true in America, so she decided to come here to pursue her profession, which, be it unde#stood now, is massage, not tennis.

At Pueblo Rockefeller will in spect the steel plant of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Co. The little schoolhouse at Cameron was the scene, last night, of a typical mia- ing camp dance, with the distinguished New Yorker the center of interest. Fo'- lowing an entertainment by local theat- rical talent, staged in honor of Rocke- feller, he won the hearts of the crowd when he suggested a dance The chairs quickly disappeared from the room anid Rockefeller and others of the inspection party sallied forth with wives and daughters of coal miners, to the strains of “‘Tipperary.’’ Rockefeller, with the pretty young wife of Charles Kaiser, superintendent of the mine, was among the first to glide across the floor.

Hood told Rockefeller that he had been an employe of the company 4% years and asked for the promise of a pension when he had served 2% years. “I think you and I will go on a pen- sion about the same time,’’ said Rocke- feller with a smile.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.—The work of the International which grew out of the Rockefeller San- itary Commission for the Eradication of Hookworm Diseases, forms the first sec- tion of the annual report of the Rocke- feller Foundation just made public. The final step in the South, the estab- lishment of intensive community work to teach cure and prevention of hook- worm or uncinariasis, has been reached, says the report. The report says that the infection nelts the globe in a zone about 66 de grees wide, extending roughly from parallel 36 degrees north to parallel 39) degrees south, and that practically all countries within this zone are infected. Of the people inhabiting the globe. about 900,000,000 are said to live in coun tries where the infection is prevalent. “Of 548,992 rural children microscopi cally examined in the Southern States,’’ says the report, “39 per cent were found to be infected. Above 90 per cent of the people of Co- lombia living"between sea level and 3900 feet are infected, according to an esti- mate based on reports made in 191, Infection among coolies on sugar es- tates is said to be greater. The report says: “In Dutch Guinea the infection on many plantations runs as high as 93 per cent; in Egypt the Infection of the laboring population is approximately 80 per cent; 50 per cent of the Indian coolies on sugar and tea estates in Na- tal dre infected: on many plantations in Ceylon the infection runs as high as 906 per cent; there is an extremely heavy infection in some parts of India and among the coolies on Many estates in Malaya and Fiji which import their labor from India, and the southern two- thirds of the Chinese empire is involved, the infection in many parts of the Yngtse valley running as high as 70 to 76 per cent among the farming pop- ulation.” REDFIELD EXPLAINS LANGUAGE TEST CLAUSE OF SEAMEN'S ACT Any Tengue Understood in Sufficient Measure by Officers and lroper Proportion of Men Will Comply. WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—The Gov- ernment’s interpretation of the lan- guage test ‘clause of the Seamen's act |has been announced by Secretary of Commerce Redfield. It sets forth that the law does not require “the use of any particular language on the part of the officers and crew of any \vessel,”’ but that ‘any language which is understood in sufficient measure by officers and the proper proportion of the crew will comply.” The requirement that members of the crew shall be able to understand anr order given them by their offi- cers is construed as “meaning’ only such orders as may normally be given to members of the crew in jeach department of the vessel in the course of the usual performance of their regular duties. Among these duties, however, should be Included life boat. work or emergency work for such members of the «rew as may be called upon to perform these LOAeeD OF work.” 10 Jnpanese Journalists, to Visit U. 8, TOKIO, Sept. 24.—-Ten representa- tive Japanese journalists wil) sail for | conditions in the United States, San Francisco tomorrow, to etedy Health Commission, }. porting house of Wessels, Kulen- kampff & Co. of New York, was be- fore a Federal grand jury here yes- terday to explain his firm’s connec- tion with the alleged distribution of nearly $800,000 of money of the Im- perial Government of Germany in this country.

Ferguson's audited ac- counts, called into the quarrel by Gen.

This investigation, it was explained in the resolution, will relate solely to the intentions of the banks in regard to the $1,000,000,000 loan which the allies are seeking here. It was made piain in the resolution and by every speaker at the meeting, which was composed mainly of German- Americans, that “every lawful means” will be used to keep every bank in town from taking part in the loan. Alphonse G. Koelble read a letter from the German Savings Bank, which has more than $93,000,000 deposits and of which James Speyer is a trustce. It gave assurances that the insti‘ution would withdraw its funds from any State or rational bank that should par- ticipate in the loan. It developed in the meeting thar many millions of savings bank funds are on deposit in other banks,. and in this way the savings bank funds may be invested in the loan to the allies without the direct participation of the savings banks themselves, which cannot, under the law, invest in foreign securities. The Committee of 100 will bring pressure to bear on the savings banks to witndraw their funds from any bank that takes part in the loan. Compliments Paid to Morgan. Jeremiah A. O’Leary said the ‘‘Mor- gan crowd” had served notice, through the Sun, that a criminal liability might attach to attempts to balk the locn. “The criminals,” he added, “are on Of Unquestioned Excellence for Men and Young Me : Who Would Be Correctly Groomed .

We do not propose to circulate any false rum- ors about the banks. We will do noth- ing criminal. We will simply use lawful means to convince the banks of the im- propriety of investing in these loans.’’ Small success, ft appeared, had attend- ed the individual efforts of O’Leary and the banks statements of their intentions ters from the Produce Exchange Bank and one or two others were read. “Our Committee of 100,” said O'Leary, “will get the banks into their proper class. The noncommittal ones will have them against the loan.’’ This brought out a roar of appiause. The New York Life Insurance Co. had not considered the loan. The Ho- boken Bank for Savings replied it was debarred by law from lending abroad. O’Leary said some savings bank of- ficlals had given apparently satisfac- lend, but had trickily failed to mention other banks that could be put into the loan. After the German Savings Bank letter had been read, O’Leary cried: “Let the other banks follow this 6xample or take the consequences!” Bernard H. Ridder held up a bandaged hand and said it was due to his automobile having balked in a sand bank in front of J. P. Morgan's country place on Long Island yester- day afternoon. “I was tossed into a Morgan bank with the uBual consequences,” he said. ' Ridder praised William R. Hearst for opposing the loan and said the New York American was doing “won- derful and patriotic work.” The audience hissed the name of James Gordon Bennett of the Herald. “The elder Villand,” . said Ridder, “must have turned in his grave when his son took the stand he has against Germany in his paper, the Evening Post. As for Mr. Ralph Pulitzer, how quickly he has fogotten that Austrian blood flows in his veins.”’ - Resolution of Warnithg. German-Americans, Ridder said, are without influence at Washington or with the New York city administra- tion, and the New York newspapers do not represent public opinion. “I do not believe,” he said, “that any proportion of the billion-dollar loan will be taken otitside of New York City, and it will not go here, either, if we do our duty in protesting to the banks.”’ "The banks that do not declare against this loam are our enemies,’’ said” Koel- ble. On motion of James R. Spears, the meeting passed a resolution warning the banks that the loan is “unsound, haz- ardous, improvident and subversive of the interests of depositors.”’ . O'Leary said the failure of the loan would “vindicate the democracy and in- dependence” of the Federal reserve law. The meeting directed G.”W. Mead, the chairman, to send a telegram to Presi- dent Wilson protesting against the loan. Both parties to the proposed loan were reported to be negotiating today on the basis of $500,000,.000 as the maximum ammount. The reported positive stand of Amer- fean financiers to lend no more than 9500,000,000 was said to have been a lead- ing factor in the virtual decision not to include Russia as a participant. With Russia in, it was said, the need would be for more than a half-billion dollars several of his associates to get from. 5 regarding the loan.

EDMUNDS, | Leeturer on International Law, St. Louis University Law School. The release by the British authorities of Capt. J. F. J. Archibald, the Ameri- can war correspondent, discovered as the bearer of hostile dispatches to tho Austrian Ambassador and the Gelman military attache in the United States, exhibited no small degree of leniency toward this offending American, how- ever much a desire to avoid fresh irrita- tion in the United States may have prompted it. The fact remains that the United States might have been compelled to remain a silent witness to much more eerious measures if the British Govern- ment had chosen to undertake then. The lightest penalty that could have heen expected was that Archibald should be held as a prisoner of war, while international law in such cases might have warranted proceedings in- volving the question of life and death before a courtmartial. Instead, how- ever, Archibald's dispatches were seized nnd he himself liberated to return to the United States, where he is fairly safe from prosecution owing to the absence of any clear statute covering his un- neutral conduct. Dispatch-Beartng Penalized. The bearing of military dispatches has from remote tines carried with it se- vere penalties and particularly when involving secrecy and transit through ihe enewy’s country. A distinction his heen made between dispatches bearing upon warlike operations and conimuni- cutions of a purely diplomatic charac- ter. As to the latter, they are presumed innocent, particularly when going to a belligerent Government from its diplo- matic agents in neutfel countries. This of the penalty, military dispatches aro known technically as analogues of con. traband. That the dispatches carried by Archi- bald were not ordinary privileged dip- lcmatic correspondence concerning the peaceful relations of Austria and Ger- many and the United States, is very plain. On the contrary, they were hos- tile aw regards Great Britain and her allics and unfriendly as regards the United States in that they aimed to interfere in our domestic affairs. This élement rendered the correspondence confiscable. Archibald Liable to Imprisonment. As to Archibald himself, it is a rule of law that whoever takes service with a belligerent as commissariat employe, guide, messenger, balloonist, telegra- pher, sutler, contractor, and including newspaper correspondents, may 0be made prisoners of war, although they are not strictly combatants. That Archibald placed himself in this cat- egcery there is no doubt. It is a question, however, whether the British Government did not have a far more serious hold upon him. The fore- mos: English autbority, Prof. Hall, says in the International Law, page 535: “Together with spies, as noxious per- son2 whom it is permitted to execute, but differing from them in not being tainted with dishonor, and so not being exposed to an ignominious death (hang- ing), are bearers of dispatches or verbal messages, when found within the ene- my’s lines, if they travel secretly, or when soldiers, without uniform, and persons employed in negotiating with commanders or political leaders intend- ing to abandon or betray the country or the party to which they belong.” Virtually Within Ememy’s Lines. COMO ESTA USTED, SENOR? BUSINESS MEN'S GREETING Employers and Clerks Meet at Lunchtime to Learn La Lengua Espanola. Thirty-four men and 10 women sat ‘n the office of the Business Men’s League at the lunch hour yesterday and oblig: ingly informed a dark and correctly dressed young man, who stood in front of them, that his collar was white, that his suit was gray, that his cuffs were black and white, and that his lead ven- cil Was yellow. \ He seemed pleased with the informa- tion, and proceeded to ask them wheth- er the window was wider than the door, whether a book was thicker than a sin- gle sheet of paper, and whether St. Louis was a larger city than New York. These and other questions of equal dif- ficulty and importance were answered promptly and satisfactorily. When it was over all agreed that they had had a very nice Spanish lesson. The men and women were employes, and business houses, and their interlocutor: was Senor Jose Alvarez, whom the For- eign Trade Bureau of the Business /Men’s League has employed to teach Spanish to as many as wish to attend The clase will meet from 12:30 to l, cv- ery Tuesday and Thursday. Prominent Men in Class. Hanford Crawford, former head of a large department store; H. A. Boeckeler of the Boeckeler Lumber Co. and W. Scott’ Hancock, lawyer, were amond those who wrote down every new wort given them by the teacher, and who pronounced, with the greatest care, sen- tences beginning with “si, senor,"’ and ‘‘no, senor,” In answer to his questions William Flewellyn Saunders, secretary of the league, who has spent much time in Spanish-speaking regions, was thers for a brush-up on vocabulary, and E/- ward Hidden, president of the leaguc, has joined the class. The business addresses of other members of the class’ were dry goods houses, shoe factories, banks and trust companies, glass, paint, oll, electrical, steel, woodenware, cloth- ing, carpet, hardware, milling, drug, chemical and fmplement concerns, the United States Department of Commerce and the Y. M. C. A. Some of the women members are Mrs. Yetta Jacks, Mrs. D. M. Rothschild, Misses C. 8S. Willi, Ida Bunting, Lil- lian Tucker, Frances M. Kann, £E. M. Michener and Elisabeth Griffin. In preliminary lessons, the teacher had initiated his class into the mys- teries of pronunciation, how cuello (collar) is pronounced kway-~-yoh; in some cases officials, of St. Louis gives it a twang like the bass. string on a guitar; and how every letter ts sounded, except “h,” which is as si- lent in Madrid as it is in the White- chapel district of London. . Teaches Castilian Spanish. He taught them, also, to give “s” and “c” (when before “e” or “I") the sound of “th.” This -is Castilian Spanish, -as spoken in the land of Cervantes and Alfonso, of which Alvarez is a native.

Detectives were assigned today to in- vestigate an unexplained fire which oc- curred yesterday morning in the flat oceupied by Charles Keller and his wife, at 3916A Missouri avenue. The Kellers were in the basement at 9:30, and smelled smoke. Going upstairs, they found several articles of furniture on fire, and it appeared, to their hurried giance, that the articles, which were in two rooms, were burning separately, and that at least three distinct fires must have been started.

SOAP IS BAD FOR THE HAIR Soap should be used very sparingly, if at all, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and’ prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just muslified cocoanut oil (which is pure. and greascless), and is better than soap or anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply .moigten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, pete lather, which rinses out sagily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.

The reappearance of Joseph C. Chris- ten as a witness before the grand jury in the arson inquiry, yesterday after- noon, caused surprise. The cases under investigation were the Nixon-Jones Printing Co. fire of Sept. 4 and the plot to burn the Shelley-Gould Grocer Sup- ply Co. Christen trapped Herbert O. Baker, arson promoter, and four alleged “torches’’ at the Christen bellows fac- tory, 121 Dock street, and thus dis- ciosed the whole arson promotion sys- tem, causing nine arrests. But it was not known that he nad information as to either of the cases in hand yesterday. It is believed that Christen was ques- tioned yesterday as to a conversation between himself and Baker, occurring at some time between a certain fire and the projeeted fire at the Christen fac- tory. In this conversation, Christen is to have remarked to Baker that was not “successful,”’ standpoint of the fire schemes which Baker had been discussing with him. Baker is said to have replied, zet the insurance, all right.’’ Witnesses in the Shelley-Gould case were Misses Anna Callahan and Edna Missler, employes of the firm, who are supposed to have testified as to visits of Baker to the office, and to have told of seeing Julius R. Bersch, vice presi- dent of.an insurance agency, call there. Bersch and Baker are charged in infor- mations with arson in the third degre. The young women are also believed to have ‘told of seeing boxes of ‘‘pickles’’ delivered at the place. These boxes are supposed to have contain@ explosives. The Circuit Attorney has been looking into the circumstances of a downtown fire which occurred in 1912, but he was not ready today to say whether he had learned anything that would warrant presentation of this case to the grand jury.

WURY TAMPERING CHARGES MADE AT CAMPBELL HEARING Ottofy Arouses Ire of Morton Jourdan, Who Denounces Statements as False. Judge Kinsey today heard arguments on the motion of L. Frank Ottofy, an attorney, to retax the costs and to set aside the Court's order denying a mo- Lion for a retrial in the James Campbell will contest case. Mrs. Rose Curtis, Who was originally a sister of Campbell, one of the plaintiffs in the suit to break the Campbell will, recently withdrew from the case, and settled the unpaid costs, amounting to 3/91, Attorney Morton Jourdan, repre- senting Mrs. Campbell and her daugh- ter, Mrs. Lois Burkham, said that as the costs had been paid there was nothing at issue, and that the Court could not now undertake to retax the costs. Ottofy insisted that he wanted the costs reduced and retaxed. In arguing the motion to set aside the motion denying a new trial, Ot- tofy declared that he had information that thetjury had been tampered with and demanded that the Judge call the jurors into court to testify on this point. Statements Are Denounced. Attorney Jourdan denounced Otto- fy’s statements “absolutely and un- quaifiedly false” and declared Otgo- fy knew they were fa*se when he made them. He said Ottofy had am- ple time to investigate any charges of tampering with the jury, and that he had brought no facts to the Court to substantiate his charge. Ottofy declared that he made statement on his oath as a lawyer. said he had been informed that a Pin- kerton detective associated with the jurors during recesses of.the court, an that one of the jurors called on Mre. Curtis and told her that the jury ought to be investigated. 3 “Was that the juror who* ordered off of his premises?’”’ dan asked. ‘“‘NoO, juror ever ordered me off of nis premises,’’ Ottofy replied. “As to your oath as a lawyer,”’ Jour- dan said, “you filed an application for a continuance in the Campbell case on your oath, and three of the four grounds in your motion were shown to be false.”’ “That statement is false,” Ottofy as- serted. the YOu Attorney Jour- Swore Juror Was Ill. “You made oath that Bryan was ill and could not be in court, and he was here in the courthouse at the time you filed that statement on your oath,’’ “Yes, but you and Festus to his home and dragged bed and took him to court.”’ “That is an absolute falsehood,”’ shouted Jourdan, who continued to de- nounce Ottofy. Jourdan said he had been harassed and abused by Ottofy until he was getting tired of it. When Judge Kinsey announced that he would take the motions under advisement. Jourdan continued to denounce Ottofy as the attorney for the contestants walked out of the decor of the room, ©’ Bear Wade went him out of COUTrtL- ae DRINKS BOTTLE OF - MEDICINE Woman Swallows Whole Prescription When Drugzgist Hands It to Her.

HAIR AND SCALP NEED DAILY CARE If you value the appearance of your hair you should treat your scalp as often and well as you brush your teeth and rub into the scalp pores twice daily a little Parisian Sage. This treatment is not a mere “hair tonic.” It is bottled nourish- ment for the hair roots and it is simply wonderful what an improve- ment its use for even a week will make in the appearance of anyone’s hair. It never injures, is delightfully cool and pleasant to the scalp and takes out the dull, lifeless look in the hair, making it soft, fluffy, glossy and beautiful. Two or three applica- tions remove every trace of dandruff, and daily use will prevent its return.

ASHEVILLE, WN. C., Sept. joying immunity for weeks, a moon- Shine still was finally located and de- stroyed by raiders from the United States Marshal's office on: Biltmore, the estate of Mrs. Edith S. Vanderbilt, and within sight of what is perhaps the most elaborate private residence in the United States. Operators of the plant escaped. The Biltmore property is regularly pa- troled by rangers, but the shrubbery about the still was dense, and it is cer- tain that it had been in operation for weeks before officers obtained an ink- ling of its existence. How they finally did so has not been made known. Whisky and beer in considerable quan- tities were poured by the raiders into a neighboring stream. Shortly after discovery and destruction of the moonshine factory on Biltmore land, another one was found on an ad- joining tract. ee Swiss Maids to Milk His Goats.

Graham, assistant superin- teéndent of construction on the east approach of the Free Bridge, was beaten for a second time by dissatis- fied former employes at 10 a. m., today in East St. Louis, according to information received at the city hall ty the Public Service Board. Graham was beaten by a discharged watch- man last Saturday. The watchman was to be tried on an assault charge today and Graham, accompanied by A. R. Ross, was on his way to court when he and Ross were attacked by several men. The message to the city hall said that a watchman beat off the assailapts with the butt end of a revolver. Frank Driscoll, a striking steam fitter of East St. Louis, was arrested after today’s attack on Graham; Others who were with him escaped. The East St. - Louls police repurted Graham was not seriously injured. _ Since the work on the east approach of the bridge was started. the city has had much trouble with union employes.

MOBERLY, Mo., Sept. 24.—A resolu- tion to exonerate State Labor Commis- sioner John T. Fitzpatrick of the charges of acvepting money from Edgar Bailey of Kansas City for obtaining a parole for him from the State Penitentiary, was thrown out of the convention of the State Federation of Labor here yes- terday, after a discussion marked by‘ much bitterness. It was the untérsetanding of the dele- gates to the convention that Fitzpat- rick’s reappointment as State Labor Commissioner depended entirely upon his exoneration by the State Federation of Labor. The Post-Dispatch, in July, published facts to show that Fitzpatrick accepted more than $700 from Bailey while trying to get a parole for him. As soon as the resolution to exonerate Fitzpatrick Was introduced by the Kansas Cit¥ dele- \ Gation objections were made by Bailey’ s friends. Bailey was present, and both he and Fitzpatrick were given a hear- ing. ~\ Mitzpatrick contended that he had ac- cepted no money for Bailey except to ray his legitimate expenses in his be- ualf. Bailey, in his statement to the vonvention, declared that he had paid money to Fitzpatrick for which he had never received any benefit, and that for- forbade hiin to write any more checks in Fitz- patrick’s favor. Several members of the St. Louis dcle- gation championed the cause of Bailey, among them being Owen Miller and James B. Conroy. The discuesion became so bitter among the delegates, following the statements of Bailey and Fitzpatrick on the floor wf the convention, that the Kansas City delegation finally withdrew the resolu- Making to to Order ¥ oe « A Men’ s and Young Men’s Fall and Winter Suits Cut and Made to Your Individual Measure From Finest $25, $30 and $35 Suitings SJR Choice of Several Hun- Extra sizes, no matter what , Wool Sweater Coats For Misses and Children Fine warm Sweater Coats of Australian wool, in fancy and plain ribbed weave.

Bailey, who was a cab-driver, was sentenced to the penitentiary for killing a nonunion man. The labor unions made a long fight to have him pardoned or paroled. In his statement to the convention, Bailey, wha was recently paroled, said that every labor union man he met, dur- ing his incarceration, except Fitz- patrick, brought him some aid in his fight for liberty. Fitzpatrick was the only one who. demanded money for his aid, Bailey said. BOY, 16.

Chicage Fire Insurance Rates Cut. ColICAGO, Sept. 24.—Chicago’s fire in- surance rates are reduced, in some cases 331-3 per cent, in a ruling an- nounced today by the Chicago Board of Underwriters.

There are no puz- zling curves to confuse and no diffi- cult scrolls and loops. Despite the simplicity of the drawings many per- sons who are put to the test find it impossible even approximately to re- produce them after 10 seconds of ob- servation.

The arrest in Bloomfield jury at Newark should caused a sensation for the reason that the scurrilous ietters, more than 100 in number, dealt with her own engagement to be married to Raymond Eller, a leader in the church and prom- inent in the northern part of Bloomfield Until her arrest, when, Inspector Op- dyke said, she made a complete signed statement to him, Miss Henderson was the object of the community’s sympathy First Letter to Her Pastor. The letters began last February, when tre Rev. B. M. McCoy, Miss Henderson’s pastor, received a letter threatening him with violence if he dared to marry Miss Henderson—who was referred to as “that girl’’—to Eller. Then other mem- bers of the church received letters, all denouncing Miss Hnderson, and several ct them containing statements about different members of the church which. broke numerous friendships. As differ- ent women of the church were suspected enmities grew, many of the members withdrew and several families moved away. Eller received a letter warning him not to marry Miss Henderson, whose char- acter was attacked, and Miss Hender- son herself received letters, which vil- lied her and warned her against mar- rying Eller. She promptly turned these letters over to the postal authorities. Postmaster Higgens received a box of chocolate by mail with a note to give them to Miss Henderson ‘“‘to relieve her mind.”” The candies appeared to have been tampered with and were analyzed for poison, but none was found in them. One of the most estimable ‘young women in Bloomfield, a relative of El- ler, Was openly accused of writing the letters, and she broke down under the unjust charges. Her father began libel actions against several persons, which actions are still pending. According to Miss Henderson’s state- ment assuming responsibility for the letters which the detectives sa¥ she made, she could not tell why she wrote the letters. She said, according to In- spector Opdyke, that at times she felt that she had to write a letter and did so. She broke down completely when confronted with the facts assembled by the detectives. Eller, who never suspected his flancee, was shocked by Miss Henderson’s ar- rest. They had discussed the letters almost daily since their beginning and together had consulted detectives and others in the matter. The young wom- an had always professed to be at a loss to ascribe a motive or to fasten suspi- cion upon anyone. The authorship of the letters is said to have been traced to Miss Henderson through a long process of elimination. Nearly every woman in the church was under surveillance at one time or an- other, until eliminated. Naturally, the last to be placed under surveillance was Miss Henderson herself. Then, the detectives assert, experts discovered that the letters had been written on a writer which Miss Henderson used the affice of the Edison laboratory at Orange. THIS Is DRESS UP WEEK.

No, I don’t belong to that board.”’ Enjoyed Visit With ‘President. He enjoyed his visit with President Wilson in "Washington on Wednesday very much, he said. ‘‘President Wilson told me,”’ Ford con- tinued, “that he had heard from good authority ‘that, after the Kaiser signed his frst declaration of war, he took his pen and threw it across the room, and then, turning to his military and other advisers, remarked: “ “You have made me do it; some day you will regret it.’ ’’ The Times prints this dispatch froin Washington: ' “a yas explained today that Henr Ford’s reported reference to a supposed remark by President Wilson as to the Kaiser’s reluctance to sign a declara- tion of war must have referred to a mention in the conversation of the ‘War Lord,’ a sketch by A. P. Gardner, an English journalist. The statement at- tributed to the President, it was said, was not the President’s statement, but a statement in this book. Like Plot of One-Act Play. “The incident as described by Mr. Ford is almost identical with the plot of a short one-act play by Sir James M. Barrie, which was presented in Lon- don early in the war and cabled in full to the New York Times. The only dif- ference is that in the play there was also an allegorical personfication of Cul- ture, which talked a ‘good deal. ‘The report of Mr. Ford's interview in New York caused a good deal of sur- prise here, as callers at the White House are not supposed to talk about the President's observations.” Ford said that the present submarines were entirely to expensicve, and that he had in mind a gasoline submarine which would cost only one-sixteenth of what the undersea boats now cost. It was suggested that the claim had been made that gasoline motors would not work under water. Ford said he Knew better, and that he had made suc- cessful experimentts in that respect. He ceclined to go further into details. Someone asked Ford about the offer he was alleged to have made of $10,000,- 000 as a peace prize. “I never suggested such a thing to anybody at any time,’ he replied. ‘I proposed to devote my energies and whatever means I might be able to em- ploy toward the preservation of peace."’ Declaration by Prof. Parker. Prof. Herschel C. Parker declared to- day that he was the originator of the diminutive submarine idea laid before Secretary Daniels by Henry Ford and announced his desire to give the inven- tion to the United States as a contri- butiun to his country’s defense. He described his invention as a “motor torpedo” and said he submitted it to Ford last July. Prof. Parker, who won the recogni- tion of scientists by climbing Mount McKinley, explained that he had worked out the gasoline-propelled submarine primarily as a defensive craft. It will have a speed of perhaps forty miles an hour, he said, and a cruising radius of He was pedoes with great accuracy. . ~s ing to Mrs. T. L.

Post-Dispatch Circulation First 6 months, 1915: * sunday 350) (166 204,479 Daily — Average Equaled Only by FOUR SUNDAY Newspapers in the UNITED STATES LETTERS FROM THE PRUPLI’ ° Annexation Would Help Webster. _To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We have read and heard so much about the annexation to St. Louis of the surrounding sub- urbs.” Whenever a resident of Webster, adverse to the plan, has been asked the reasons for his opposition, his reply invariably is: “What good will it do Webster?” As a resident of Webster Groves, and one who has invested in a home in thet beautiful suburb and who is therefore as much concerned for its prosperity as anyone else, I must say that such a reply exhibits a narrow and selfish point of view. It overlooks the fact that Webster’s prosperity is identical with St. Louis’ prosperity. Nearly all her citizens depend upon St. Louis for their daily bread, and if an- nexation will benefit their own benefactor with- cut injuring themselves, it seems to me that the plan should be favored as a matter of course. The one serious situation that may arise through annexation is the saloon question. Web- ster does not want saloons and should not be expected to make a harmful sacrifice for the benefit of St. Louis. If this feature of the ques- tion can be safely handled, there should be no opposition on that score. It has been pointed out that the fire insurance rates would be reduced by annexation. This is mot open to controversy. A Councilman from Webster assures. us that these rates will soon be cared for by the establishment in Webster of a paid fire department. He neglects to add, however, that this can be done only at the ex- pense of the local water rate. It is a notorious fact that Webster can only support a fire depart- ment from the profits received from the Water Department. This necessarily means a continu- ance of the present rate, if not an increased rate. In any event, it means a h'gh water rate in com- parison with that of St. Louis. Annexation would gepure a reduction of insurance rates, besides a } greatly reduced water rate. As to educational facilities, {t can hardly be contende@ that the grammar and high schools | of Webster are equal to those of St. Louis. High- er salaries and better equipment must mean greater efficiency. It is common knowledge that Webster has lost many good teachers because of her inability to pay adequate salaries.“ Sub- urban pupils cannot attend the city schools with- out paying tuition. The position of St. Louls as the fourth city of the United States seems to be in danger. It may be a bad admission that she must resort to con- séription, so to speak, to save her face, but the _ ggpersion implied in thie necessity applies as much to the residents of the surrounding suburbs, nearly all of whom are business and professional ‘men of St. Louis, as to the residents of St. Louis. _ Waquestionably this atrocious “What-good-will- - §t-do-us” policy so uniformly invoked in this en- ' ttre vicinity is one of the very causes for the al- | Jeged industrial and civic. lethargy of St. Louis, end ought to be discarded. . It means a great.deal to a city to occupy fourth place among Amefican cities. In San Francisco this summer I was astonished at the attitude of the West toward Missouri—treferred to as “the sucker State”’—and I was therefore surprised at the respect shown for St. Louis. Invariably I found that our place in the census was respons!- Ble for this respect. San Francisco and Los Angeles cannot, by boosting, add a cubit to their stature; consequently they tip an envious hat to @t. Louis as the fourth city in the United States.

But no small percentage of them have located there because America is a new, crude eountry, with many features distaste- ful to the most refined natures. The United States is a good enough country in which to inherit or make money and from which to draw huge profits on prime city real estate or monop- olized natural resources, but really too democratic, don’t you know, for the very choicest of spirits. The war has already introduced many harsh, irksome conditions into the London environment. But the full hotrors of war will not be experi- enced by the expatriates until*the new taxes go into effect. Some of them will be compelled to give up to the British Government as much as a third of their remittances from this country that help in normal times to keep exchange at par. That William Waldorf Astor will have to pay $1,250,000 a year in income tax alone will cause delight on both sides of the water. And the United States Government is now levying an income tax on all profits derived in this country and is likely to increase it heavily in coming months. The opening of the war drove back to this country thousands of these expatriates for whom, up to that time, America had never been good enough. The war taxes will drive back many more. = = i i Good Anthony Comstock has gone where no clothing is worn. —-—--—--- © © @ - PENALIZING BUSINESS. Irn a statement of the advantages to manufac- turers offered by Pittsburg, published in the Editor and Publisher and the Journalist, is the sentence: In 1910 Pittsburg manufacturers’ personal taxation was almost nil. In 1911. it was made nfl by the complete removal of the tax on machinery. In a recent speech to the Retailers’ Association Mayor Kiel suggested the abolition of merchants’ and manufacturers’ license taxes. For years the Post-Dispatch has advocated the abolition of all business taxes. They are penalties for doing business and forse succeeding in business—penal- ties on the very life of industry and commerce by which a community grows and thrives. — If St. Louis would abolish business taxation, all specific burdens on industry and commerce, the city would take a long step in the direction of progress. We would be in the competition for industrial and commercial investment. = = — Safety last is the slogan of some auto drivers. == * _ a ae THE CLUB MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD. The idea of having the policemen in the Veiled Prophet parade discard swords as too suggestive of war, and carry hickory batons instead, is worthy of a poet. It has all that mild, grape- juicy Bryanian flavor of the turtle dove with the olive branch, It reminds, too, of that tender sen- timent that would eliminate tin soldiers and brass horns from the nursery as provocatives of mar- tial feeling. In fact, it inspires a feeling of uni- versal love that is overpowering. | Still, there is a doubt that the abstract thought, when converted to realism, will attain the desired object. A “Brave” armed with a shillalah will appear far more bellicose to the general public than when adorned with a sword. While the club assumed the attitude of a real weapon in his hand, the sword, by its inappropriateness, is sof- tened to a gentle humor. Who has not enjoyed the consternation of a mounted policeman on these eccasions, in mortal dread of his own blade? Or, being on foot, take a header tripped by his scab- bard? These little pieces of by-play lend largely to the amusement of the parade, and should be considered. Let the “copper” wear his sword. It is the only day in the year the people can safely laugh at him. Don’t deprive them of this diversion. GOLF AND JOURNALISM. That golf and journalism are antipodal and mutually repugnant we are more than ever con- vinced by reference to the current number of the Golfers’ Magazine, which commiserates us as follows: Pity the poor newspaper golf writer. Not only is he blamed for possible typographical or telegraphic errors that are bound to hap- . pen, but he also bears the brunt of the joke if it is such, No end of laughter is simetimes caused by mistakes which creep into print. “Tie for tee“ is frequent. “Mashie” has ap- peared as “smashie.” Often writers like to refer to well-known amateurs as cracks. This is what appeared the other day in a Philadel- phia paper: “Francis Ouimet, along with several] Phila- delphia crooks, entered in invitation meeting on links of the. Baltimore Country Club.” This is pretty sad. To our mind there is noth- ing sadder than a newspaper golf writer, unless it be a journalist who tries to play golf, or a golfer who goes in for journalism. MASSACREING NONCOMBATANTS. ‘ Their air raid upon Stuttgart, the French offi- clals announce was “in retaliation for the bom- bardment by the Germans of open towns and civil- fan populations of France and England.” By way of reprisals the Germans may be expected again to send Zeppelins to drop bombs by hight on Paris or London. Each side complains that the other attacks undefended places and cities out- side the zone of military operations and then seeks revenge by killing a few women and childre far from the front. ) Once such methods of warfare are established they lead inevitably to indiscriminate massacre by both sides. One outrage by enemy aviators, one violation of the conventions-of war, provokes another, and the butchery of noncombatants be- comes a race between the forces of savagery. No effort is made by the airmen to distinguish be- tween soldiers and civilians, no distinction is possible. | When, Lieutenant-Commander Mathy, who rained bombs upon the streets of London, with fearful effect, during the recent Zeppelin raid, tells the Post-Dispatch Berlin correspondent that London is a “defended” place in the military there, he describes conditions at Stuttgart and sense because anti-aircraft guns are mounted French aeroplanes in their raids made any pre- tense of confining their attention to military de- fenses. They cast their bombs at random into the crowded streets and on the housetops, and their one aim was to spread death and ruin among helpless people, without discrimination. In a war in which most of the ordinary restraints of civilization have been cast aside, no phase has been more barbarous than the long series of raids by airmen upon open cities and their defenseless women and children. = = i i CHICAGO’S MAMMOTH DIVORCE COURT. Visitors to Chicago hereafter wil include among the principal points of interest her mammoth new divorce court, now open with a fine prospect of unprecedented business and billed as “thé largest tribunal of its kind in the world.” It is organized on the basis of the highest effi- ciency, and we read that it is to be presided over by a veteran criminal Judge, who doubtless knows all the ins and outs of the business. We gather from the proud announcement which appears in the press that it will be a sort of department- store establishment, where you can get any kind of a divorce you want in the shortest time for the least money. The (Cruelty, Drunkenness, Incompatibility, Statutory and other departments will be in charge of expert head clerks, no doubt, and we suppose there will be polite floorwalkers, handsome soda fountains, etc.; writing rooms, waiting rooms, manicure and hair-dressing parlors, rest rooms for co-respondents, trained nurses for fainting ladies, and every» modern improvement, including diversions such as bridge whist and*cabaret fea- }tures. Expert accountants will be in charge of the Alimony Departments and bond experts will look after your investments. The Deposition Department will be a popular feature. There will be uniformed notaries public, plain-clothes detectives, snoopers, gossips and a performing band of trained witnesses. There will be Swiss masseurs, Mmarriage-license clerks, and an auto- ‘jmobile service maintained to all the railway depots. Theater seats may be had at the news stand in the rotunda, where Town Topics, ‘the Smart Set and the best sellers will be on sale. The restaurant will be high class. An orchestra will discourse in the tea rooms from 4 to 7. Photographers, society editors, reporters, etc., will be in constant attendance, and an atmos- phere of refined Bohemia will prevail. It should be a charming place for the Chicagoan to while away Lent. We dare say the appreciative Chicago public will make the most of its unique and splendid divorce facilities on a scale of grandeur truly Chicagoesque. = = rer Grim-visaged War now wears green hair, the shell acids having dyed it for him.

Out of a school population of about 100,000, Dr. Wallin, director of the psycho-educational clinic, finds that St. Louis has only 372 feeble-minded children. This is precisely 372 too many. But, in a total ropulation so great, so diverse and exposed to so many unhygienic influences, the city way be thankful that the showing is no worse. Dr. Wallin’s work is justified by the fact that posed defectives. He found that 96 children, out of a total of 468 who had been attending spe- cial schools were merely backward in studies rather than mentally deficient. These 96 chil- dren will now be given special care, with the object of gradually bringing them up to the nor- mal standard in education. It is noteworthy of the investigation that it shows that boys who are backward or mentally defective outnumber girls so handicapped three to one. This suggests that parents and guardians of boys owe it to them to be especially careful of the environment and influenoes to which they are subjected. It has been found that males of the human family have a far greater number of geniuses and also of imbeciles than females. Boys are more liable to go to excess. The wise parent will give them special attention. Let the junior Rockefeller dance on; he can “pay the fiddler.” BULGARIA’S EXHAUSTION IN 1913. Estimates as to the military forces Bulgaria can put in the field have little reliability. Only two years ago, on Aug. 10, she was compelled to sign a humiliating peace, exhausted in men and resources. Reports during the Balkan War were generally exaggerated, but the best authorities now agree that she did not mobilize more than 350,000 men. They are also agreed that in attacking Turkey she lost more than twice as many men as the other Balkan armies put together. Bulgaria suf- fered frightfully in the second campaign with her late allies and her losses in men killed or to- tally incapacitated during both wars were placed as high as 140,000. Some thousands of young Bulgarians have ar- rived at military age in two years and she now has a little wider territory in which to enforce army service, but she is by no means as formida- ble an antagonist as when Turkey was attacked by the Balkan league. A result showing that Rumania, which is the largest of the Balkan nations, and Greece, whose strength has increased in these two years, were lined up on the side of the allies and Bulgaria lined up on the side of Germany, would only en- large the quantities entering into the military equation, with some slight advantage to the al- lies, but without introducing factors to be rec- .

IMPLICITY always suggests youth- S fulness, but for a’ woman of mid- dle age to wear simple clothes be- causs of a strong desire to appear young is absurd. Such a woman is only too apt, In aping youth, to choose clothes which lack that necessary qual- ity of middle age—dignity. And it is 4 quality just as possible, if not more #0, in clothes of simple lines as in elab- crate ones. All the soft, transparent materials, chiffon, net, Georgette crepe, etc., which are sc modish for afternoon and eve- ning frocks, are particularly flattering to middle age, and for young girls ador- ably becoming and suitable. For the gir! attending boarding school er college, semi-dressy frocks for cer- tain evening affairs are just as nec- essary as the more formal dance frocks. As the model at the right pictures it, soft taffeta might be combined with Georgette crepe or chiffon to carry ent a one-color scheme. Onto a drop- shoulder yoke of the transparent fabric a full blouse and long full sleeve of taffeta attach themselves by means of a puffing. This forms a subtle trim- ming which is used also by the skirt. _ Cs purcin full from the belt, a puffing at the hip line re- strains the fullness from an immediate flare, while a narrow band of fur at the bottom keeps it within reasonable bounds. And a pretty contrast it is to the filmy un- cerskirt of Georgette crepe which drops below it. Scallops -worked in silver threads to finish the edge lend just the desired elaboration. They are the same which so daintily finish the eufis of Georgette crepe on the loosely gathered sleeves. An all gray frock trimmed with silver threads and brown fur, with a cluster of shaded pink flowers at the side of the crushed belt, would be rretty on a brown-eyed, light-haired miss. However, almost any color one might wish could be safely used for this suggestion of materials and trimmings. The model at the left shows an un- usual use of all-over lace dyed to match the color of the chiffon com- Lined with it. Apple green, rose or Delft blue would be pretty, and a velvet belt of the same color or of black would be a charming comph- ment. With a yoke and cuffs of lace, rnd an underskirt of the same whose Warren worked in a factory near by. Zellu helped by keeping house and sew- ing for a department store. They had managed to clear the lot between them, but the taxes were behind. After that Adrian Noble forgot all about the blue wallet in becoming a reg- ular visitor to the place. Those two innocent spirits seemed made one for the other, and John Warren did not object. to their new friend. One evening Noble arrived at the lot to find the sign in ruins; a severe wind- storm. had blown it down. The sign owners had given it to Warren for kindling wood and were going to build an entirely new one. Noble assisted in pulling the mass apart and piling up the loose board. Suddenly he uttered-a wild cry. “The blue wallet!’ he shouted. Yes, there it was—pasted under the poster sheet as a hiding place by the dead thief and come to light at last. Ané so the reward was gained, giving to John Warren the means of retrieving his adverse fortune, to Adrian Noble enough to marry on and be happy. (Copyright by W. G.

I do not see why we should not wear jewels as well as the fairies,” “I am sure we could easily do that,"’ said another wicked little elf: ‘‘because the Queen does not wear her jewels in the daytime. I saw her a little while ogo, and she did not have on one jew- e).”’ “We had better start hunting for them,”’ saf@ another elf. ‘We may not have as easy a time finding them as we think.” Away scampered all the little élves, scudding under the leaves and blades cf grass until they came to the dell where the fairies live, and then they hid and watched. H, how sleepy those little elves did get watching the fairies! They rubbed their eyes and yawned in their efforts to keep awake. “Won't they ever get through danc- ing and take off their jewels?” whis- pered one elf. “They never go to bed until sunrise,” sai¢ another. “Oh, there they go!

Manager in Fall onal pm) 4 &.a% HORTLY before dusk yesterday aft- ernoon, when the veranda of the Triple A Club had been bared of their throng of spectators, with the exception of a few hero-worshipers, Molla Bjur- stedt, the Norwegian “wonder woman,” and Roland Hoerr of local racquet re- pute, played a one-set match of tennis. Miss Bjurstedt won, six games to four. She outplayed the local star. Any- one watching the match would know that it was no case of chivalry on the part of Hoerr, but that his opponent actually defeated him. It was whis- pered about the clubhouse, while the few spectators were still recovering from the shock, that Hoerr, who has dominated in local tennfs affairs for several years, could have won had he gone to the net. That may be perfectly true, but the fact was that he could not get there. He attempted it about three times and after having been “passed” on as many occasions, he decided net to try it any more. Miss Bjurstedt smashed and banged at will against her husky opponent. She gave a prettier exhibition than in her singles contest with Miss Alice Prendergast or in the mixed doubles match. The manner in which she played the corners, passed Hoerr with sting- ing drives or returned his treacherous Fe strokes, caused considerabie won- this “Sure she won, player.

Eddie Plank, the other menber of Jones’ 2 +hree has had uftfalo. Yesterday Grover Cleveland Alex- ander won his thirtieth game for the Phillies and received a bonus of $1000. This was his second bonus. He pinched off $1000 for reaching the 2-game mark. But withal he’s still one of the cheapest-priced pitch- ers in the game. His tontract calls for only $4500 exclusive of the bonus, giving him a net income this season -, $6500 without the world’s series ce. Hig portion of the series money should be at least $3500, bringing him up to the $10,000 mark. Which isn’t bad unless we inaugurate odious comparisons. Polly Perritt, for instance, is getting $9000 net from the Giants, and all he has done is to pitch McGraw into sec- cnd division. There are two Cardinal pitchers who receive more gross salary on the season than Alexander. Walter Johnson gets twice as much as Alex, and there are others, notably some of the Red Sox hurlers. But Alexander is king for all that. He has been beaten 10 times, but he still has the winning percentage of the league. Alexander vs. Teacy. If we are to cast about for a man to compare with Alexander, however, there’s no chance for confusion. The man who is pushing Alex for the right to ascend the titular throne is none oth- er than Fred Toney of the Reds.

RICKEY BELIEVES HE HAS STAR IN PITCHER WCABE' Brown Manager Also Likes Soth- -eron and Sims After Seeing Them Under Fire. ——- YOUNGSTERS SENT HOME Only Regulars Are Taken to Boston for Final Series With Red Sox. BOSTON, Sept. 24.—Manager Rickey ahd his Prowns came in this morn- ing on the midnight train out of New York and the outfit promises to do their level best against the coming champions, that the Detroit crew may not be able to say that-.the St. Louisans took things easy against their chief rivals. Rickey didn’t feel very good after losing a double head- er to the Yankees by 7—0 and 5—1 scores. It is pretty tough on any manager to lose a double header, but for a manager of any kind on a team to lose two in a day to the Yankees looks like pine it on. Rickey did not bring a lot of ex- cess veageage along. He hag only four pitchers and to reckon up that total has to count in Sisler who has recently officiated only while one of the regulars has been warming up to relieve in a sudden emergency. The gpastes he brought along are all left handers, Weilman, Hamilton, Kovub and Sisler. With the latter on the roster as a pitcher, it means that Clarence! Walker will work regular- ly again for a while. Recruits Are Sent Home. None of the rookie pitchers who have been showing so much was hrought along. Tillman and Sims were sent back to their homes last under orders to report to Sotheron, charge of Coach Sugden who will work on them while the rest of the team finishes its eastern trip. Then the pitchers will be sent to Chicago where they will be given further workouts. Jacobson. goeg back be- cause he has a bad slbow which 1s it impossible for him to throw ball 30 yards. Talking of his es today, Manager Rickey sald: lliman regar as aéie splen- did prospect. He showed enough in New York Wednesday to prove that much. Sims is a- right-handed Hamil- ton with all kinds of stuff, but un- fortunately he does not know yet just how to use what he has. heron has more stuff than any of the new pitchers but suf- fers from stage fright. When he has had enough experience to know how to keep himself under control in emergencies, he will be a high class pitcher. Philips is another splendid prospect. He reminds me very much of Irving Faber of Chicazo. McCabe has shown the best of the youngsters on the hurling staff.

TRADE Leading Issues ,Score Wide Gains on an Active Buying Demand. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 24.—The Even- ing Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, Bays: “Although still evidently under the Sway of speculative excitement, es- pecially among the outside public, today’s stock market broadened in its scope of activity today, and moved quite peeranly in an upward direc- tion, During the forenoon, the move- ment was@mainly gonfined to the in- dustrials, which for: the most part recovered violently from yesterday's reaction. In the afternoon, however, the railway shares as a whole joined in the movement. Advances of one to two points were general, even among stocks which for a week have hardly stirred. Railroad Stocks Strong. “Taken as a whole, the day’s move- ment seemed to be governed equally by the excited enthusiasm of the speculat- ing public and bythe operations of pro- fessional traders who were maneuver- ing to keep this public in a state of un- diminished excitement. The course of the railway shares was interesting, es- ey in view of the fact that the ay 8 news from the Balkans indicated extension of the area of war and per- haps its prolongation beyond even pre- vious ideas. Such a state of things could readily be used even to increase speculation in the war order shares. basis for an upward movement of in- vestment securities generally is a differ- ent matter. “In other markets bearing on the gen- eral financial situation there was not much change. Cotton went higher. The Speculation in that commodity has de- eed very extraordinary characteris- os “Foreign exchange rates again moved unimportantly. “The wheat exports of the present week, as reported by Bradstreet, were the largest ever reported for the period. They were nearly 1,000,000 bushels above the same period in 1914 and 1, 750,000 above 1913, and exceed those of any week this year since April. This estimate, to be sure, includes the Canadian exports: but the important grain fields of Canada Nave hardly yet begun to shi German Loan Well Ta ‘en. “Today’s reports from Berlin, regard- ing the announced subscriptions to the third imperial German war loan, arse very remarkable. What they appear to prove is the fact, suspected by the ma- jority of competent observers at the outset—that previous experience was clearly to be of little value in measur- ing the capacity of the belligerent peetes to draw on their people’s capi- except in so far as !t proved that nghting nations do not give up because financial exhaustion. Assuming to- day’s Berlin dispatches to be accurate, subscriptions to this loan (whose total amount was not limited) have matched the $3,000,000,000 subscriptions to the sec- ond British war loan. This is in spite of the fact — the price asked for the loan was % of 1 per cent higher than ‘in the preceding German offering, and the rate of interest the same. “The full economic meaning of these extraordinary contributions to the waste of war is yet to be determined. Germany, for instance, which sub- scribed $1, 100,000,000 to the first war loan and $2, 200,000,000 to the second, will have contributed to such loans when sub- scriptions to the third are paid, nearly 9 per cent of the country’s total wealth and property of all descriptions, as esti- self by the German vernment it- se “What is to be the end of such de- pletign as that, the imagination finds it diffic ilt to picture. In the case of Ger- many, the interest on its Government debt, ‘when this loan has been issued, will substantially exceed the total im- perial revenues at the beginning of the war, yet it was quite notorious that, in the tax imposed quring 1913 for the increase of the army, almost the last woe of scientific taxation had been shot.’’ REAL ESTATE WANTED WANTHED—Rellable party or firm to PPP PGS handle our persona! lands that we have for sale or exchange; must furnish best references.
