OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN DECLARES “PIN NEW YORK HE IS PENNILESS signed grand opera 10 years. He is said to, have received F ormer Impresario Asks for County’s Aid tn Recoveing In- terest in Opera House. NEW YORK, Jan. 2.—Oscar Ham- merstein, former grand opera impre- sario and billder of many theaters, has appealed to the District Attorney's office tor the county’s aid in recovering an interest he elaims in the Lexington Avenue Opera House erected by him a few years ago. He asserted he was pen- niless. He declared he made a friendly transfer of the property upon advice of an attorney and now cannot recover it. Hammerstein originally equipped the Lexington avenue house with a view to re-entering the grand opera field here. which he abandoned in 1910, when he an a ment not to produce this city or Boston for $1,200,000 for his good will, properties end business.

The accounting system of Sheriff Dick- mann’s office, which Circuit Judge Kim- mel yesterday, in an opinion from the bench, likened to the bookkeeping meth- ods of a Chinese laundry, is now under examination by experts, who will rec- mommend changes. The examination now being made is the first of its kind, the Sheriff's ofice having heretofore run its finances without definite respon- sibility. Judge Kimmel’s unfavorable comment on the Sheriff's office was made when he ordered the acquittal of Q@homas B. Kilcullin, former execution deputy in the Sheriff's office, who was charged with embezling $4714.. Not Public Money. This money, while it was in the na- ture’ of office funds, was declared by the Court to be not public money, but Dick- mann’s personal money. The prosecu- tion held that it was public money, but Judge Kimmel pointed to the fact that Kilcullin was charged with embezzie- ment “from Joseph Dickmann, Sher- igg.”* The Sheriff's. office.is run on a fee ba- sis. The Sheriff pays his deputies and office expenses from the fees. received, and he is under bond to the city and State. When money is received for property sold at Sheriff's sale, the Sher- iff deposits “it to his personal acco: deducts his fee and other costs, and sends the holder of the judgment a check for the balance. He is not sub- ject, as are other city officers, to the checking processes of the City Audi- ter. An audit of the Sheriff's office was decided on last Octobér by Mayor Kiel and Comptroller Player, when trregu- larities were discovered in that office and in the water tates office. An ap- propriation Will for $5000 was introduced to cover the expenses of the audit, and James R. Campbell of the accounting firm of Marwick, Mitchell, Peat & Co. was employed, with the consent of the Circuit Judges, to conduct the audit. This work is still in progress. Dickmann’s Statement, Dickmann, when asked as to his views on the outcome of the Kilcullin case, prepared the following signed _state- ment: On June 19, 1914, when I discovered the shortage in the Sheriff's office and found who got away with the - money, I reported the same to the Circuit Attorney’s office, which was my duty as a State officer, and I served as witness In this trial, and here my ‘duty ended. The money is still out and I know who got it,. but what is the use? About the remarks of the Court, I never would expect such a word from an honorable Circuit Judge. Our sales books might look like “Chinese laundry books.” These *books were exclusively handled by Tom Kilcullin and it is shown that ‘te did a good deal of business through these books. The ungentle- manly remarks made in court don’t worry me a bit. I have always tried to do my duty in every case. I am glad this case is over and I wish everybody good luck. JOSEPH F. DICKMANN.

Through the use of a talking machine, the Rev. William Hays Scott, formerly of Hdwardsville, offered prayers at his own funeral. This was learned today by Edwardsville friends, in a letter re- ceived from the clérgyman’s daughter, Mrs, Cullen Bryant of Alameda, Cal., where the funeral was held.

He knew perfectly well the precipice was there, but he leaped at it exactly as though it were the finish line of the Vanderbilit cup race.

At that point of the line they greatly outnum- bered the English. But it was not the elbow touch of numbers that explained their cheerfulness; it was because they knew it Was expected of them, The famous scholar who wrote in our school geographies, “The French are a gay people, fond of dancing and light wines,”’ established a tradition. And on Hill 616, although it was to keep from freez- ing that they danced, and though the light wines were melted w, they still kept up that tradition were “gay.” ' They laughed at us in welcome, crawl- ing out of the igloos on all fours like when we photographed them crowding to get in front of the camera, when we scattered among them copies of l’Opin- ion, when up the snow-clad hillside we skidded and slipped and fell. And, if we peered into the glviom of the shelters, where they crouched on the frozen ground with snow dripping from above, with sh rs pressed against walls of icy m they waved spoons at us and invited us to share their soup. Even the dark-skinned, somber-eyed men of the desert, the tall Moors and Algerians, showed their white teeth and laughed when a “seventy- five” exploded from an uhsuspicious bush, and we jumped. It was like a! camp of boy scouts, picknicking for one day and sure the same night of a Warm supper and bed.

Healis told of driving Dr. Mohr to Bris- tol Ferry on the night of Aug. 28 and how “he lost his nerve and continued faster’ when he reached the spot where Brown and Spellman were waitiWg in ambush. He said another reason why he did not stop was because Miss Florence Ormesby and Miss Martha Wilson were with the doctor and Miss Burger.

Healis then told of driving Dr. Mohr and Miss Burger to Bristol on Aug. 31, the night of the murder. »“When I got to a bush in the road about halfway between twd lights,” he testified, “I stopped my car and got out, turned out my headlights and put my idélights on so I could see the engine. hen I heard two shots and I saw Dr. Mohr leaning toward Miss Burger with his head covered with blood.

Rooks, brother-in-law of Miss 3urger, told the jury of written and verbal threats which Mrs. Mohr is alleged to have made against the life of Miss Burger and of Mrs. Mohr’s ‘‘bitter feeling against the doctor.”’ Miss Ormsby, the office girl, testified that Mrs. Mohr warned her to stop rid- ing with the doctor “or take the econse- quences.”’ She asserted’ that Mrs, Mohr threatened to throw vitriol in Miss Bur- ger’s eyes. Mrs. Moh: retained her composure throughout the hearing. She gazed earnestly at each witness and manifest- ed a keen interest in every question and answer. Miss Burger, Dr. Mohr’s assistant and the “‘other woman’’ in the case, told the following story in the course of her testimony last Wednesday: “I left the doctor’s office on the night of Aug. 31, about 8:15. Healis, Dr. Mohr's chauffeur, had called for me at my house about 10 minutes before. We wert along until we reached the Washins- ton road, when the chauffeur, who ap- parently had been having trouble with the engine, jumped out. He turned out the headlights, switched on the _ side lights and a minute later opened the hood and started to tinker with the motor, “Suddenly I heafd two or three eharp explosions.

A jury in Judge Rassieur’s court today xave a verdict for 37500 in favor of Mrs. Olive McClelland in her suit against James L. Mueller and Robert H. Muel- ler, who conduct a grocery and meat market at 65266 Delmar boulevard, for the death of her husband, Thomas W McClelland, a He was struck by an automobile of the defendants at Delmar and Euclid, Oct. 10, 1914, and died the next day. His widow sued for $10,000. Members of the jury said they did not allow the full amount because the evidence showed that McClelland was crossing the street diagonally when the accident occurred. McClelland was a salesman for the Union Electric Light and Power Co. and a member of the Jovians. He said, ‘My God!’ The doctor was stil! sitting there. I reached over and plucked him by the sleeve two or three times,. and then he fell over toward me. “The chauffeur grabbed me and dragged me over to the other side of the road. He put me down there and ran back, crying for help. I sat up and saw a machine come, and there were some people, They took me to the hospital.”’ Miss Burger said that at the time of the shooting she saw no one about the automobile but Dr. Mohr and the chauf- feur, and that she did not Know she, too, had been wounded until she put her hand back and felt the blood, Then Arthur Cushing took over the witness for cross-examination. “You were in the doctor's? employ?” “Yes, 1 was his housexeep- er. ; “How long had you been his house- keeper when this happened?” “About a week.

The object of the night riders was to increase the pay of men hired for clear- ing land in this section. The prevail- ing pay has been $6 to $7 an acre, which they considered too small. Adkisson, the principal witness today. is 68 years old, lives near Gideon, and owns several hundred acres of land. “On the night of Nov. « ‘tast,” he testified, ‘I was called to my door, and went out, dressed in my underweal. I saw five men, all masked, and four of them were carrying revolvers. “One of them put a revolver against my temple, and they walked me 150 yards or so, and then threw me down, and all began beating-me with sticks hickory sticks, I think. They beat me until the blood came. Shot After Beating. “The Captain said, ‘Are you going to talk?’ and I said, ‘No,’ thinking that was what they wanted. But the Cap- tain said, ‘You better not tell what has happened to you, Now trot along.’ I started to run away, and they fired their revolvers at me, and one bullet hit me in the right foot.” He said the men gave him a slip of instructions, telling him he should pay |} better wages. Hobart Shipman, 18 years old, one of thore who pleaded guiity, was called as a witness. He was a member of the Clarkton band. He said the band had a countersign. an cath of allegiance, a grip and a pass- word, and that the rule was “Obey the captain, or be thrashed.” He said the purpose of the band was to ‘lift labor up and bring land rent down.” He said the band had a letter- writing committee, which wrote cum- munications to land owners, telling them if they did not raise their wages, they would be whipped on the first visit, and that “something awful” would happen to them the second time. Six Detectives Attacked. The other outbreak was an attack on six detectives who were hired by the landowners after the attack on Adkis- son. The detectives, posing as lumber- jacks, were living in a house near Gide- on and trying to get information against the gang. They were attacked at right. The house was riddled and John Mat- thews, one of their number, was shot in the head. niegee ee ' There are said to have been several of the night rider bands.. They. terror- ized several communities in the New Madrid section. Attorneys for the defense, in the tes- timony offered yesterday, tried to show that the accused men were not night riders but members of a labor union. The prosecution produced letters of warning which had been received by citizens, signed: “The Dirty Dozen Night Riders From Hell.” ee OO. em | a lle pce | WHAT DYSPEPTIC SHOULD EAT Indigestion and practically all forms of stomach trouble, about nine times out of ten, are due to hyperacidity: there- fore stomach sufferers ‘should, whenever possibig, avoid eating food that is acid in its nature, or which by chemical ac- tion in the stomach develops acidity, Un- fortunately, such a rule eliminates most foods which are pleasant to the taste as well as those which are rich in blood, flesh and nerve building properties, This is the reason why dyspeptice and stom- ach sufferers are usually so thin, emaci- ated and lacking in‘that vital energy which can only come from a well-fed body.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Customs revenues dropped from $283,700,000 in 1914 to $205,800,000 in 1915, or ap- proximately 27% per cent, according to a statement today by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce.

Prepared for War Only Once. “Only once in our history have we been prepared for war.’ said the Gen- eral. “That was immediately after the Civil War, when we had a million and a half trained soldiers. Our diplomatic correspondence with France concerning Mexico was very brief. It required only one note because of our prepared- ness, They were told to get ouf and they got out. ; “There isn't going to be any weakness abroad after this war is over. You will find that more male children will have been born than have been killed or in- jured, You will have all the gold, per- haps, but it will not do you much good unless you stiffen it with iron." As to the immediate needs of the reg- ular army, Gen. Wood expressed the opinion that the force of reguiars with the colors should be maintained at 210,- 000. Of these, he said, 9,000 eguipped and supplied for a year’s time, should be kept in the Philippines, another 20,000 in Hawali and 16,000 at Panama. He urged that the regulars should have a reserve system under which in a six-year enlisment men would be dis- charged whenever their company com- wanders reported them as efficient into a reserve, to be definitely assigned to war etations. Equipment for members of the reserve would be kept at thelr sta- ticns and once every two years they would be required to join the colers for 1¢ days’ training to keep them up to date. Gen. Wood said thatif universal mili- tary service was not to be obtained he favored a continental army scheme sub- stantially as proposed by the War De- partment, “provided it is absolutaly di- vorced from the organized militia.”’ The increases for the regular army proposed by Secretary Garrison, how- ever, he characterized as “absurdly in- adequate and indicating a failure to ap- preciate the lessons of the European war,” particularly as to the proportion of field artillery. He recommended that the proportion of fleld guns be fixed at five to every 1000 rifles of sabers. The present army standard is 3.9 per thou- sand, although In actual equipment the regulars are nearer two per thousand. The board recently created in the War Department has fixed on.5.9 per thou- eand as the number necessary. - Only 700000 Modern Rifles. Reverting to the condition of the coun- try to face war with a first-class Power, the General said the United States was utterly unprepared and knew nothing of the problems it would have to meet. At least 2,000,000 men would be needed, he declared, and they could be obtained, he believed, only by compulsory service. At present there are only 700,000 modern rifies and 300,000 old model weapons in Government arsenals, he said, and up to five days ago the capacity of all American plants to produce rifles was only 32,000 a day. England alone, he said, wanted 66,000 a day, while France called for two rifles in reserve for every man in the fleld. Gen. Wood was positive in declaring the militia was composed of a fine per. sonnel, but cursed by a hopeless sys- tem. Uniess it could be taken over by the Government and absolutely severed from any connection with the states, he said, it should be abandoned to the states entirely, and not a dollar of Government money wasted upon dt. “We should terminate the intolerable system,” he declared. “The soldier ele. ment of the militia all want federalisa. tion. No man who refuses to come into the continental army its to be depended upon.” Under a univereat service system, the General said, there would be 3,500,000 men between 18 and % years of age upon whom the burden of military duty would rest, counting on only 8 per cent of the men at that age. He believed, however, ment of troops, and he pointed out that amd could be caneial Ghd. Grex te any po- sition by a single man. He added that it would be tested here again soon.

FOUR GROUPS OF DERBY RECRUITS CALLED TO COLORS Estimated It WiTl Add 100,000 Men to English Army—New Fiulist- ment Campaign Announced. LONDON, Jan. 2%.—Groups 2, 3, 4 and 5 of recruits who enlisted under the Earl of Derby’s plan were formally called to the colors today, in accordance with the proclamation of Dec, 13. These groups, the first Derby recruits to be called out, are composed of unmarried men from 19 to 22 years of age. The number of men in the first four groups, after substracting exemptions and postponements of service, is esti- mated roughly at 100,000, Another great recruiting campaign on voluntary lines was atarted yesterday at a meeting in Downing street between the Earl of Derby and the central re- cruiting committee.

ASSAILS COTTON EMBARGO Neutrals’ Rights Being Recklessly Disregarded in Contraband Orders, He Declares. WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Great Brit- ain’s interference with neutral trade was the subject of a vigorous and ex- haustiv Ypeech. in the Senate today by Senator Hoke Smith of Georg’a, who pleaded for action to prevent England from advancing her own trade at the expense of the United Statcs, while at- terrpting to destroy Germany commer- ctally. He declared that the rights of citizens of the United States and other neutral nations were being reckléssly disregard- ec and emphasized particularly what he denounced as Great Britain's lawless treatment of America’s cotton trade. Discussing the action of the allies in proclaiming cotton as contraband, the Senator asserted that cotton had not been used or needed by Gerriany or her allies in the manufacture of war muni- tions for more than eight months. He quoted from a statement prepared for him by Howard W. Bible, now in Wash- ington, after a trip to Germany, who reported that he had learned through rersonal investigation that Germany had developed a process for using wood pulp av a cheaper and more effective substi- tute for cotton in the manufacture of explosives. Reviews History of Interferences. Senator Smith reviewed the history of interferences with trade and diplo- matic exchanges on the subject. He called silly and untrue statements that the United States made cotton contra- band during the Civil War, declaring that only once before—in the Russo- Japanese War—had cotton been declared contraband and it was done by Russia, who promptly gave way on protest from Great Britain that the action was il- legal. British authorities were quoted also to prove that under international law foodstuffs are subject to seizure only when consigned to armed forces of an enemy. “Shall we quietly continue to furnish Great Britain what she is compelled to obtain from the United States while the commercial rights of citizens of this country are trampled under foot?’ asked the Senator. “Great Britain can- not continue the war without munitions from the United States. Great Britain cannot feed her population without food- stuffs from the United States and other neutrals. Great Britain cannot keep her million and a half people engaged in the Lancashire mills at work 60 days without cotton from the United States “Great Britain cannot accomplish her scheme for world wide domination of commerce in her vast products of com- mon manufactured fabrics without cot- ton from the‘ United States. “The brought to the attention of Great Brit- ain the right of citizens of this coun- try. It has been demonstrated that cit- izens of neutral countries have the right to ship foodstuffs and cotton in unlim- ited quantities through the neutral ports of Northern Burope to non-combatant Inhabitants of Germany and Austria. Slept Over Rights, “The Congress of the United States slept over the right of shippers of food- stuffs last winter. This was, perhaps, because the prices were good, perhaps because we did not investigate the sub- ject. The lawlessness of Great Britain has increased greatly during the past 12 month. Hach day brings new evidence of disregard for neutral rights. “By firmness, but peacefully, neutrals 4 : administration has forcefully bring ; Be pewrehns To this there may be one ex- ception—young | cerned. The manufacture and exporta- cine man, and Paul Grant Kirk of 2310 ESSN children may die for lack of milk. “Great Britain cannot hope to accom- plish anything so far as the immediate effect of the war is concerned by this lawlessness. We may find a reason for their course so far as cotton is con- tion of cotton fabrics has been a great industry in Germany. The marvelous skill of these people as mechanics, their superiority as chemists, have made mar- kets in the world for their manufactured products which have seriously en- croached upon English commerce. “Tf cotton can be kept out of Ger- many and the exports from Germany suppressed, then, perhaps, England may capture this trade and help her own commerce.”’ Medicine Man Says He Was Robbed.

Jefferson, England may feel the desire of absorbing the commerce of Germany and of starving her people, but she can have no right of doing it at our loss or of making us the instrument of -t." Referring to a statement made by Sir] R. Finlay to the British Parliament ‘n 1911, that “‘no cotintry, however power- ful, would incur the displeasure and pos- gible hostility of such a power as the United States by putting forward an unfounded claim to treat food brought to Great Britain as contraband of war’ Senator Smith added: “I wonder what he thinks of the Unit- ed States now, when we submit not only to the seizure of vessels destined to Ger- mar ports carrying foodstuffs, but to the seizure of vessels destined to neutral! ports of Holland and Sweden and permit Great Britain, disregarding rules of in- stuffs belonging to citizens of the Unit- ed States, with no proof whatver that they were intended for the military or naval forces of Germany? “Germany and Austria have a popu- lation of over 110,000,000 people.

CALLED ‘VAMPIRE Lawyer Defending Girl’s Breach of Promise Suit Alludes to His Client as “Boob.” NEW YORK, Jan. 2.—The breach of || promise suit of Miss Cora Maude Clarke i= against John Leon Ma young broker, wet to the jury in Jus- tice Lehman’s court yesterday afternoon after arguments in which the defend- ant’s attorney ridiculed both the plain- tiff and his client, and Migs Clarke's at- torney, in defending her, declared Mar- tin was attempting to justify himself under a moral standard which he did not want to apply to her. a wealthy |= “He wanted to be false to this little ; woman,” said the plaintiff's lawyer, Aaron Jetmore, “but he did not want her to speak to a single man friend.”’ Instead of “Booful baby,” pet name for her, Miss Clarke heard herself called a “vampire” by Attorney Terrence McManus, representing Mar- tin. The lawyer also did a burlesque of the Romeo and Juliet baicony scene, which Miss Ciarke had described seri- }jougly as the moment when she made her first and strongest appeal to the broker, and when in two hours she had him proposing on his knees. The lawyer took a long and sympa- thetic look at Martin, his client, and shaking his hand at the broker, shout- ed: “And woman coined a situation, now a money-making situation, and she told a lot of fairy tales to Martin. And the poor boob believed her.” The lawyer declared Miss Clarke's tondness for Martin was animated largely by the fact that Martin’s father had left him $200,000. Busy Bee Candy Bargain YF -‘Zay.

Many persons in St. Louis who are capable of creating designs for a city flag seem to be incapable of reading dl- rections on how to prepare their plans «rd submit them in the competition for the $100 prize that has been offered by ‘the Pageant-Drama Association. About 2 designs have been submitted ard, according to Librarian Bostwick, who is a member of the flag committee, more than half have violated some of the rules. Whether the violations will disqualify the contestants will rest with the committee. If an unusually merito- rious design is found to be in violation ef the rules a point might be stretched te allow it to remain in the competition, but the chances of it winning the prize will not be as great as it the rules had been complied with. There is hardly a rule that has es- caped violation. The stipulated size is 2x16 inches. Some are larger and some smaller than this.

Clarence H.: Howard, president of the Commonwealth Steel Co., upon his inau- guration as president of the Business Men’s League yesterday afternoon at the Planters Hotel, advocated the for- mation of. a Junior Business Men's League, and urged that the league en- gage in-many. other new activities. One suggestion was that a committee be formed to aid boys in developing their talents so that they might be trained to be good office boys for Busi- ness Men’s League members. He sug: gested that the league learn ih advancu the names and ratings of prospective public school graduates as a means of obtaining good office boys and clerks for league members. Howard also advocated the appoint- ment of a committee on public utilities whose duty, he said, would be “to pat the public utilities on the back instead of roasting them.”’ He suggested the formation of commit- tees On organization and _ efficiency, membership prizes, boys, city and coun- ty, workmen’s compensation, safety first, recreation, housing, Americaniza- tion of foreigners, public school build- ings, public markets, education, the use of vacant lots for playgrounds and gardens, sanitation, municipal research, the making of the Coliseum self-sus- taining and the building and support of a grand opera house. He urged that a special committee be appointed to compare the efficiency of the Business Men’s League with that of similar or- ganizations in other large cities. Lowest Prices of the Year.

.e Too Slender Fellow Is Rare- ‘gy Happy in That Condition. » Perhaps nobody loves @ fat man, but it is a settled bit of the philos- ophy of life that the too slender man or woman is rarely happy in that condition. A gaiu in flesh is the hallmark of improving health and the high sign of a better disposition, and to bring about the gain naturally and whole- somely the stomach must function at its best. No benefit is derived from food which is not thoroughly digested. In the present day hurry and scurry we often eat our meals in too great a haste and fail to properly masti- cate our food. The rush of modern life doesn’t agree with manz and it often results in dyspepsia, probably the most common of maladies. A dyspeptic can easily be dis: tinguished. He becomes listless, then morbid, melancholy and “grouchy” over little things. He loses his appe- tite, suffers untold agonies from pains in the side or stomach, head- aches, after eating a bloated feeling, nausea, restless sleep, nervous and all run down feeling. After years of study and experi- ments in an effort to find a remedy to cope with this almost universal malady, Joseph von Trimback, the noted chemist and giver of health aids, discovered Tanlac. Tanlac is designed to combat just such condi- tions. It is proving invaluable against ailments of the stomach, liver, kidneys and catarrhal affec- tions of the mucous membranes. which, when ‘rieglected, so often af- fect the vital organs themselves. As a reconstructive tonic for half-sick, run down men and women, it builds up the tissues, creates a keen appe- itite, promotes digestion, vitalizes the blood end brings back color to the cheeks and sparkle to the eyes. Tanlac now is being specially in- troduced in St. Louis. At the 7th and St. Charles St. store of the Johnson- Enderle-Pauley Drug Co. an expert from the Tanlac Laboratories daily explains to scores of rundOWn men ‘and women how Tanlac should be taken end the results that may be - expected from its use. He tells them how Tanlac builds more strength, creates better digestions, retores nervous systems by its qualities as a tonic, appetizer and invigorant.— One\ of the TANLAC representa- _tives willbe at the Grand and Olive Bt Johnson-Enderle-Pauley Drug Co., Saturdays, afternoon and even- ing, to explain the merits of TAiv- ~LAC.—ADVERTISEMENT. for Your Eyes Industrial workers using » artificial light and subject to flying particles hitting the eyes should have a .

Implement and vehicle dealers of Southern Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kentucky, Mis- sissippi, Alabama, Georgia and Texas, who have gathered in St. Louis for the annual convention of the Mississippi Valley Implement and Vehicle Dealers’ Association, have found the $3,000,000 road bond campaign in St. Louis Coun- ty of timely interest. The close rela- tion between good roads and the pros- perity of the farms has iong-bdeen rec- ognized by the dealers, all of whom are good roads boosters. The first session of the association was held at the Planters Hotel, the conven- tion headquarters, yesterday afternoon. Nearly 1000 members are present. The second session opened at 9 o’clock this morning. The feature of this evening will be a banquet at which the visiting dealers will be the guests of the St. Louis Implement, Vehicle and Hard- ware Association. Discuss Handling of Autos, An open discussion at yesterday’s session of the advisability of implement dealers taking up the selling of automo- biles was of particular interest because of the relation between the automobil« business and good roads. Several dealers told of taking up the handling of auto- mobiles. They agreed that the volume of this business among the farmers had surprised them, and some told how the automobile business tided them over the last season when poor business condi- tions generally caused the sale of im- plements to farmers to dwindle to prac- tically nothing, Statistics gathered by an agricultural publication were cited to show that 22 per cent of the farmers have bought automobiles, It was asserted that every farmer is a prospective purchaser of an automobile. With some it is a question of another goou crop, while others with ‘the money already in the bank are mere- ly waiting until the roads in their sec- tion are improved to the point of mak- ing motoring a pleasure. “Any business man who votes against good roads is very foolish,’ Louis Ringe Jr., ef St. Charles, Mo., president of the association, said to a Post-Dispatch reporter. He pointed out that for the implement dealers better roads mean more sales not only of automobiles but al) kinds of farm machinery because of the resulting prosperity. “And by good reals I mean hard roads,’ Ringe continued. ‘Substantial roads of rock and cement cost more, but they are permanent, and I will say that ¢very business man or property owner in the territory served by such roads is more than repaid for the cost to himself by the increase in his business or in the value of his property. I heartily ap- prove of the attitude of the Post-Dis- patch in advocating better roads in St. Louls County.” Tells of Attitude at Anna, Ill. W. C. Mangold, secretary and treas- urer of the association, illustrated his attitude toward good roads by citing the action of his home town of Anna, Ill., which last spring voted for better roads. ; Anna is a Southern Illinois town with & population in 1910 of 2800. At last spring’s election the township in which Anna is located voted $76,000 bonds to build hard roads, “The voters of Anna were for this proposition,”’ said Mangold. “It meant that the city of Anna, because of its larger assessed valuation and popula- tion would have to pay two-thirds of the cost of the bonds in taxation. At the same time not one cent of the money was to be expended within the corporate mits of Anna. Realizing these things, the citizens were far-sighted enough to see that their return would come in in- creased business. “Citizens of Anna did not stop there. Through thelr municipal government they are building brick streets and pay- ing for them by special assessments against the property owners. That re. minds me I have $1000 assessment to pay for the street in front of my prop- erty. But I am glad to do it.” The convention will close with the morning session tomorrow, at which of- ficers for the next year will be elected, $5.50--DETROIT & RETURN Jan. 22, via Clover Leaf Route.

INNOCENT LAWYER GETS TWO YEARS W. R. Schneider, Acquitted -of Forgery, Prosecutes John V. Rice on Perjury Charge, John V. Rice; 28 years old, a col- lector, of 1414 McCausland avenue, was convicted yesterday by a jury in Circuit Judge Fisher’s court of per- jury and sentenced to two years for testimony he gave to the grand jury in December, 1914, against William R. Schneider, an attorney, who was accused by him of forging his name to-a quitclaim deed. The evidence given by Rice resu}ted in Schneider being indicted for for- gery. Schneider was tried and .ac- quitted about six months ago and now the falsity of the charge is fur- ther shown by the conviction of Rice. Rice is a son of the late Thomas A. Rice of the Rice-Dwyer Realty Co., who left about $200,000 when he died in 1904. The estate is still in the Pro- bate Court and a partition suit is pending. Schneider was formerly the attor- ney of John V. Rice. In addition to the services he advanced cash to Rice, and Rice signed over to him his in- terest in ‘property at: 1504-06-08 Chestnut street. The deed was a quitclaim and was signed im the pres- ence of several persons. It was exe- cuted in the presence of a notary pub- lic and bears his stamp, When the case against Schneider was tried it was abundantly proven that the deed was executed by Rice and was not forged. Schneider then, for his further vindication, brought about the prosecution and conviction of Rice on the charge of perjury. Rice is said to be contemplating an appeal. $4---TOLEDO & RETURN---$4 Jan. 22, via Clover Leaf Route. ‘iood in sleeping cars.

Seumas McManus, noted Irish poet and novelist, author of ‘‘Lad of the O’Friels”’ and ‘‘Donegal Fairy tories,” who is in St. Louis to address the St. Louis Peda- gogical Society and the Tuesday Club, said today that ‘he dares not, since the commencement of the European war, re- turn to his home in Donegal because of his activity for Irish independence. Mc- Manus declares England is today as op- pressive of Irish volunteers as she was during any time of Ireland’s 700-year struggle for freedom. He says any one working for the Irish cause must either stay out of Ireland or stay in jail, and he prefers to stay in. America. McManus sp s at 4 o’clock today at Central High hool before the Peda- gogical Society. His talk Friday will be t 2:30 p. m. before the Tuesday Club. He is stopping at the Marquette Hotel. McManus belongs to fhat faction of Irishmen who believe that independence can be won only by ‘force, and is op- poged to the activities of the Irish Na- tionalists, led by John Redmond, who are abana to get meses cd al ‘for Ireland through home rule by pariia- mentary enactment. “It is strange,’”’ he said to a Post- Dispatch reporter, “that so many in this country believe the Irish people are with England in this struggle. Nothing could be farther from the truth. In the past 12 months hundreds of Irishmen have been thrown in jail for working for the Irish cause, absolute independ- ence, and many others were theratened with jail sentences and had to get out uf the country. A practical reign of ter- ror exists among the Irish Volunteers, ar. organization that was formed after the Ulstermen began arming to oppose Acme rule.’’ Won Hanger Strike. As a notable example of the impris- onment of Irishmen, McManus cited the case of F. Sheehy Skeppington, who was sentenced to 12 months in jail for telling Trish boys in Dublin in a speech that their duty was not to England, but to Ireland. He says Skeppington was re- leased after six days by refusing to eat or drink anything. He went on hun- ger strike, although he is ardently against woman suffrage, of which his wife is one of Ireland’s foremost advo- cates. McManus asserts that he has found throughout the United States a feeling’ that the Irish are now eager to support. England. He says this is caused by an English propaganda at the commence- ment of the war to get the sympathy of the young Irishmen of America, that all cables were kept hot with re- ports to instill the idea here that Irish- men were tumbling over themselves to enlist for England. McManus ‘says, on the contrary, En- Ziand’s efforts at recruiting tf Ireland have been a complete: failure; that the bulk of recruits are Anglo-Irishmen or Ulstermen, anti-home rule advocates, or loafers. He says a great part of these recruits are the economic trash of Ire- land and that the people were glad they ee —— — Men’s Heavy Hose oe 35C Wwool..... Half- 25¢- : wool....

For Ireland only will they fight, and England will realize this if she attempts conscription in Ireland. She knows there will be ter- rible bloodshed if she attempts: it. There are 60,000 armed volunteers in Ireland, but those who are not armed will drop their hands to their sides and be shot before they will fight for England, which for hundreds of years strove to crush the very life out of them.” “There never was such tyranny exer- cised in Russian Poland as there. is today and always has existed in Ire- iand for those who'stand up for Ire- land. The Government there has in- stituted all sorts of petty tyrannies to dismiss Irish volunteers from public of- and . fice to frighten them Away from the volunteers. “You can imagine how absurd it was for England to ask Irishmen to fight under Sir John French, the man who tiouted all law by declaring he would ot fight against U!tstermen if they came vut in open rebellion against home rule. | For this he was elevated to head the English army. Sir Edward Carson, who fiouted the law by causing open re- tellion against home rule, was rewarded ‘vith the office of Attorney-General in the coalition cabinet. After he was made Attorney-General he washed his hands of the office, showing England how he had triumphed over her. “John Redmond turned rocrwviting agent, a traitorous part, but the people refused to follow him when he asked them to enlist. The so-called home rule bill, a most miserable measure—a nea sure to set back rather than advarice the Irish—is now on the shelf, where \ \ it will remain.

Do 4 not be lonely, dear.’* _ “No, Roger,” she answered simply. It did not occur to her to question him. And he left her sadly, conscious that he might never set eyes upon her again. In.New York he put up at a small hotel. First he went to the offices of the great corporation of which he had onse been manager. He had owned a controlling interest in this, and would ‘have been president, but for his youth. He sent his card in to the nianager, and @ dapper little secretary came out. “I want to see Mr. Latham,” he said. The secretary looked blankly at him. “I thought you wished to see the man ager,” he answered. “Mr, Latham is not the manager?” “I never heard of him.” “But he owns a controlling interest in the business."* “You must excuse me,”’ said the sec- retary, and withdrew. ‘The Old Lawyer. OBODY knew anything of Latham. N At his bank he found that the of- ficlals had all died or retired, or transferred their activities. At the house which had been his he found a strang- er, who curtly refused him information. ' Then he thought of his lawyer, old Harry Flynn, his best friend in his col- lege days, when he had stood between him and an irate father. He hardly expected that the old man would be alive, but the office boy informed him that Mr. Flynn would see him. He had sent in no card. When he entered the old man’s office recognition was mu- tual. Fiynn shook hands with him. “Sit down, Roger,” he said. “I always knew that you would turn up some day. But my boy—you should have trusted me. “I don’t understand,” said Roger. ‘What do people think?’’ “They think,” said Flynn, ‘that you were killed in the San Jose Railroad wreck 12 years ago, that you are buried beneath the mountain torrent.”’ The words revived Roger’s memory. He recalled now the disaster. Three cars had fallen through the broken bridge into the stream. He had been in the smoker, he had crawled, agoniz- ing, through the debris tnto the under- growth and fainted. That was all he knew. “Listen, Mr. Flynn. I want te tell you my story,”’ he began, and told it. The old man listened incredulously, laid his hands on Roger’s shoulders and looked keenly into his eyes. “I love Lacy,” said Roger, “but— where does my duty lie? How about Ma- rian?’’ “She is alive. She is provided for,’’ said Flynn. “My fortune?” “Much of it was. lost after your death. But your wife did not suffer.” “I must see her.’’ “Roger, take an old man’s advice. You are a bigamist, but an involuntary one. You have not sinned in the eyes of God.

VOICE was heard in the outer of- fice—the hard voice of a worldly woman. It was Marian’s! Roger ccught a glimpse of her through the doorway. The old lawyer motioned im- ed behind it, just as Marian came through the doorway. “Well, Mr. Fiynn, how about those papers?” she demanded, and the tones of her voice made Roger shiver with un- happy..recollections. “It is all arranged, Mrs. Williams,” answered the lawyer. Roger stared through the flimsy screen; he felt his heart beating madly; he could hardly restrain himself from leaving his hiding place. é } ghall do better for myself.” “Quite so,” said Fiynn. “The decree will become absolute next month, and then. * * * By the way, Mrs. Williams, what name do you intend to take.

When she had gone Roger stepped from behind the screen. “T am sorry,” said the old man warm- ly. “Now, Mr. Latham, you must choose. Of course, you can legally claim your fortune, what is left of it,’ and— and’—— Rogert gripped his hand. “T have chosen,”’ he answered quietly. Good-by, Mr. Fiynn. It was true.

HE old woman went to the chim- | ney and tapped on the bricks three times, and right down that black sooty chimney came the daintiest little fairy you can think of. ‘Well, Mother Goody, what can I du for you?” asked the fairy. “Not for myself do I ask a’ boon, my party, but I bave no gift to carry to | esse ee (A.

Whittaker, superintend- ent of the United States Farm for Mis- démeanants at Occoquan, Va., .where persons convicted of misdemeanors in Washington, D. C., are sent, arrived in St. Louls this morning to speak at noon at the City Club and in the after- noon before the Wednesday Club. Maj. Whittaker’s vis't was brought pLout by Director Tolkacz and /.ifred Fairbank, chairman of the Social Serv- ice Committee of St. Louis, who visited the Occoquan farm and approved of its methods. ’ It is Maj. Whittaker’s suggestion that a similar farm replace the workhouse systcm in St. Louis. At Fairbank’s of- fice, Maj. Whittaker told a Post-Dis- patch reporter of the work he had ac- complished. “Until five years ago,” he said, ‘‘Washington took care of its misdemea- nor prisoners in a workhouse at an ex- penso of $125,000 a year. The prisoners produced nothing. “Then the farm 25 miles from Wash- ington was purchased. There are 300 prisoners at the farm. We started in with a tent and 100 prisoners. They cleared the land and built the first build- ings from the lumber from the felled trees. “Now we have a plant valued at near- ly $1,000,000. The fatm is self-sustain- ing. Last year we sold $20,000 worth of farm produce, “St. Louis could well have a similar institution. After the initial expendi- ture for land and buildings it would be self-sustaining.”’ PUBLICATIONS. | | i SE AON 5 AO «BOSAL EARLIER NEE BO.

AND SCHOOL Coach Call Boys Must Give His Team the Preference or Quit. Coach Callan,. who is at present piloting his McKinley High School entry in the lead of the Interscholas- tic Basket Ball race by several lengths, is out with the ultimatum that should the Missouri A, A. games conflict with the “prep” contests, eitner one or the other of the activi- ties will have to be dropped by the gourt stars, who perform on _ both teams, The M. A. A, team, which holds a berth in the new A. A. U. League, is composed of three former MckKin- ley High basket stars, augmented by two members of the 1916 quintet. In- cidentally these two are the cleverest players on the five—Bill Feuerborn enining brightly at center and Pal- mer caging countless baskets trom the forward line, Johnstone, Coates and Gregory are the other members of the Cherry Diamond team. When told that Feuerborn and Palmer had decided to join the M. A, team, Coach Callan said: “] am afraid that the dates of the two teams will conflict. I have ar- ranged a number of games to be played at night for the. remainder of the season, and since all of the A. A. _U. contests will be played in the evening there is a big chance for conflicts. feel that the boys owe their services to their school and that they should play with it when- ever called to do s0. However, for the good of, the team I cannot allow any compromises; it must be every wame or none, Should the players de- cide to slight the high schoo ames for the M. A.

In the opening contest the American Brakes submerged the | Battery A quint, 31 to 12.

Jones’ suggestion was that this stad- ium be built in a locality close to the population center of the major leagues —which would approximate Pittsburg more ciosély than any other large city —and epnually play the entire world’s series there. This plan was offered as a substitute for the system of shifting back and forth heretofore in vogue. It figured to be a money-saver and would also in- crease the number of persons who could annually witness the struggles for the world’s championship. * Ouch! Give Us a Chance, Bo.

A vast majority of the popula- tion of the city that won the pen- nant would be completely cut out of a chance to witness even one world’, series game by the cost of transportation and the enforced lay-off from work, un- der Jonew’ scheme. It’s a great rich man’s plan, however. There is little doubt that a stadium of a Capaeity of 100,000 could be filled, no matter in what city it might be located er in Washington, D. C., or St. Louis. Any capitalist could well afford to erect this stadium at a cost of $200,000 or more, and accept the national com- mission's 10 per cent of the total re- ceipts. He would still make over 25 per cent interest on his investment, if the stands were only three-fourths filled and only four games played. Talk About Big Business—! HE enormous sums involved would turn the head of even a baschall magnate. For example: All figures (based on three-fourths complete attend- ance in a 100,000 stadium), would mean the practical doubling of everybody’s “bit.” Winning players would receive bo- nuses of close to $6000 each; while clubs would grab off at ‘east $150,000 apiece. Here are other amounts that stagger: The city lucky enough to get such a fea- ture would have to handle something like 50,000 persons, in addition to its reg- ular population. The average stay of each one of these transients would be four days. . The amount of money each would put into circulation in said city wouid prob- ably not be much under not count- in Spey per taa gt ne seg J an aggrexate of $2,500, that hotels and merchants of the lucky burg would profit in less than one week, A national convention would be a mere incident, by comparison. St. Louis bid $100,000 for a con- vention that will not bring one- fifth, perhaps not one-tenth the number of persons whe would be attracted to a world’s series, under the conditions outlined by | Fielder gones. * It's SOME dream, Bo. But if they ‘take away from the home town fan his right to see his home team play for the world’s series (should it win) they will assassinate his daily four-bite at the te during the season. There are lim- ts to what even a sport fan will put up with. Here’s Your Chance, Mr. Netster.

IELDER JONES may not wear a 7% hat, but he gave off a large- sized idea, yesterday, when he told a Post-Dispatch reporter of his world’s series plan for a centrally located world’s series stadium, to seat UT—what would Mr. Fan say? He’s, ~weather conditions permitting—wheth~ tory practice will be needed to fit the local competitors for this type of com-~ | petition. St. Louis players will for once have to get out and WORK.

NOW ANGLING FOR GREEDY CHAMPION Jimmy Johnston Comes Forward With New Proposal of $60,- 000 for Two Fights. NEW YORK, Jan. ®.—The arrival here yesterday of Jack Curley resulted in new complications in the matter of the Willard-Moran 10-round fight. It was learned that Curley is the pro- moter dear to the heart of Willard’s manager, Tom Jones, and that he has been awarded the handling of the Moran-Willard fignt for an offer of $32,500 and 51 per cent of the motion “Ted Lewis” in the fight guides, has made $18.000 in 13 fights. The larg- est single sum paid him was $1960, for | his bout with “Kayo” Brennan at Buf- si700 For meeting Ritchie he received Lewis is entitled to what he gets. Be- ginning with his bout with Kid Graves, a few days ago, Lewis is matched to battle 10 times in about 32 days, wind- ing up Feb. 17. His most important en- fFagement takes place Jan. 28 at New York, with Wilile Ritchie on the receiv- ing committee. At an average of $1300 per fight, which is Lewis’ record for his recent appear- ances, he will have taken in $13,000 for about 30 days of work. .W In that time it ts doubtful if he is knocked down, or even re- celves a black eye. He will have undergone no exhausting strain and received no dangerous punches, if his past record spelis anything. And yet Gibbons has the nerve to bar his sons from the easiest money and the easiest life—for a clever man—to be found in the entire sporting world, Again, Mike, we refer you to Mr. Jesse Willard, whose bit has now risen to $32,500 for 30 minutes effort.

C., is scheduled to start in two 40-yard dash events at the indoor meet of the *Illinoie A. C, in Chicago tonight. Mahl, with Paddy Fitzgerald. the C. A. C. coach, departed last night for the Windy City. Fitzgerald stated that Mahi was in perfect condition and expected him to give a good account of himself, The races tonight. will be something of rubber’ Mahl and n local around and defeated Delaney’s protege in picture profits. Willard is alsu given an option by which he may accept 45 per cent of the gate instead of $32,500. How- ever, Curley, although he has Willard’s signature, has yet to get that of Moran. The Pittsburger has been tied up to a contract to fight Willard for $17,000 as his bit, win, lose or draw. Tex Rick- arg ane Circusman McCracken tied the not. McCracken and Rickard increased their offer to Willard from $30,000 to $32,500, but Jones spurned it and favored Curley, who owns 10 per cent interest in Jess Wil‘ard’s carnings. The prospect of a deadlock over the best bout of the year, from a heavy- weight standpoint, is thus probable. new factor has Ange in he field in the person of Jimmy Johnston, manager of the Madison Square Gar- den, who has offered Willard $60,000 if he will sign up for two fights, Moran to be his first opponent and his second foe to be named by Johnston. Moran would get $15,000 for his end. Curley seems to have double-crossed McCracken and Willard, for it was Cur- ley that was sent west as the agent of Rickard & Co, to close the deal with Willard.

Miss Kern is the holder of the woman's national title, having gained this honor in Pittsburg in 1909,’ the last year that women were allowed to com- pete in the American Bowling Congress tournament. Mrs. Willis, who came to St. Louts only a few months ago from Detroit, held the . mpionship of that city Against Miss Kern, though, she never had a chance and was beaten in the very first gamb. when the local star ran up a lead of 4 pins. Miss Kern wen eight of the 10 games eusily, one was a tie, while Mis. Willis captured the oth- er, the final one, 160 to 151. Both women, rolling on alleys clmost entirely néw to them, rolled in greet torm; Miss Kern averaged 171 9-10, while Mrs. Willis did 1528-10. This easily equals the marks made by some of the leading men pin topplers in the city. Miss Kern in Best’ Form. Miss Kern started off in great style, counting 196 in her first game, the high- est of the entire match. She came right back with 192 Her low mark for lw irames was 161, which she counted in the nigth and tenth games. Mrs. Wil- lis’ best mark was 176 and her iow gaine 119, in the second. Following are tne scores: Miss Kern— 196 192 187 153 169 155 193 182 151 161—17l¥ Mrs. Willis— 152 119 176 151 144 147 176 163 151 160—1578 There is a chance that the pair will get together in another match under» the same conditions within the near future, ag Mrs. Willis was not at all pleased with her showing and ig con- fident that she can do better against the national champion. Miss Kern is ready to meet any woman bowler in the city in a special match. When the Middle West totrnament was held in Des oines two years ago, Miss Kern; rolled with one of the quintets an@ made a good show- ing. She comes from a family of ten- pinners, her father, Martin Kern, being St. Loufs’ only national cham- pion; while her mother also is a star on the drives, City Teams Show Poorly. Low marks are still coming in the city scratch tournament being staged on the Washington alleys. Last night the best total compiled by the dozen five-man teams competing was a 2605 by Al Bell’s Leacocks. This mark did not even place the quintet among the first 10. The next best mark was a 2580 compiled by the Walkovers of East St. Louis. If the 2767 marks made by the Washingtons last Saturday is to be beaten, then the quintets will have to get busy, as only 16 more are to rol Five of these, the Cabannes, Victors, Pi) k Sheets, Tokios and Meli- sheimers, roll tonight; the Falstaffs,¢ Grands, Fidelitys, Hudson.

Mr. Roeder has been 27 years on the World, and is one of New York ancestry, he is an American citizen. City’s veteran reporters. Of German He has written a series of articles as a result of his latest visit to Germany, of which the following ts the fourteenth: By Gus C. Roeder. A great change has come over Berlin. Eight months ago you could scarcely notice while on a visit to the capital that Germany was engaged in war and that she and her people were fighting for ‘heir existence. True, you noticed a lot uf soldiers, many wounded and some crippled for life, but the city itself, and the people, appeared to all outward indi- cations as if nothing unusual was, trans- piring. The citizens looked indifferent What a difference today! The Berlin people’ seem to have changed complete: ly. Last spring they appeared a happy lot, with no cares to worry them, cers | tainly not so far as outer 2ppearances weré concerned. Today you find only a solemn people—a. people who appear to and gvho do realize what this war means to Germany and her millions. They yre no longer the happy-go-lucky and care- free crowd. They are stern, severely so. They are no longer a smiling crowd. They are very, very solemn indeed. It is not that they fear for the out- come of the war. On the -ontrary, the) appear to be more convinced than ever that Germany cannot lose this war, They believe that she will come out victorious. They feel that victory is theirs already. But at the same time: they’ have come to look upon the entire situation in the most serious manner imaginable, ‘Théy know that the longer. the war lasts the more lives must be sacrificed They realize, too, that many industriés must suffer, and‘ that fortunes will be swept away if this war should last for many more years to come. They are no longer of the opinion that peace is te come to them in the near future. Hear of Nothing but Deaths. | You can read it in their faces. You can hear it in their voices; you no- tice it as you listen to their conver- Sations; you observe it as you enter the department stores; you see it as you visit the small shopkeeper. You notice it wheh you go to the banks and even at the crowded playhouses. It produces a sort of creepy feeling. You hear of nothing but deaths and still more of deaths: of crippled and wounded and of men whom the war has condemned to end their lives in darkness. How long will the war last, you ask? Nobody seems to know. They don't seem to care, and that appears the strangest part of it all. All they know is that they must win in the end, and that to accomplish this they must be ready to sacrifice all—every life, if necessary. They say they will gladly do it. ; “And do you. notice any great change in Germany as you travel about, as compared with what you saw last spring?’ I have been asked repeatedly. A high official at the Foreign Office in Berlin was among those who put this question. ‘*"The people are more solemn,” I replied. “Yes, we notice that, too,” always came. the answer. Homes Reflect Feeling. You don’t notice this state of af- fairs as much in public as you do when you visit the inhabitants of the largest city in Germany in their own hames. It is there, among them- selves, in the private family circle, that you realize more forcibly than anywhere else that Germans have at last been aroused to the fact thay they are engaged in a struggle for life and death, and that they must sacrifice thousands and hundreds of thousands more human lives before the end actually is in sight. I have in mind a meeting with a woman and her husband whose ac- quaintance J had made years before the war. He is a Lieutenant in the army. He served in the west and later in the eastern theater of thewar. It was there where he distinguished himself in battle and was decorated with the Iron Cross. He was wounded. For r weeks he was in one of the field hospitals in Russia. Finally he was transferred to another hospital near the German frontier, and sO was recaptured in’ the German ad- vance. His pbs healed, but heart OCEAN STEAMERS. CUNARD — en Ba: Ia Soo KOPE *TUSCA A Bre ERA RARE JAN ie ORDUNA SA i Sr A. “eee 0 * “ B-Tik: al princonl bore of Off. F. HAR vid eet AUSTRALIA te trouble developed. He is now back in Berlin with his wife and child, doing lighter garrison duty. “My husband has been notified that he must be ready for field service again within a few weeks,"' said the Lieuten- ant’s wife to me. “We only hope that he may be permitted to spend Christ- mas with us, once more. We realize that he will not return home again. His heart condition tells that only too piain- ly. I-hate to see him go again, but he must and that is all that can be said. The next time you see me I, too, will be in mourning.”’ Homes Reflect Feeling. This episode tells what is transpir- ing all over Germany But with it all they do not complain, certainly not in public. If this war lasts three more years as some seem to think, you hear it stated repeatedly, “we won't be able to stand 7," The people believe that the strain upon their nervous system will be so great that they must collapse under it. They do not mean to give you the impression that they fear for defeat on the field of battle. They do not! but they feel that they cannot stand this strain which such a war places upon them. “Where will we get the men from to continue our work at home?’ you hear thém ask when they are told that the general outlook for peace is not a gocd one, that it may be three years before the end of the war is in sight. ‘Ou* business will go to ruin. We need men. If they all go to the front we don’t know how we will be able to make out.”’ But there are stil] other indications that the Berlin peoplegare looking upon the war in a more serious vein now than they did early in the spring of 191. People have settled down to be more economical than ever before. They eat ‘much less today than they did a year ago. And, of course, they buy fewer food supplies. They are in training, one would think, so that the field service might not be as strenuous in the begin- ning. Drink Less Beer. The Kaiser has said that Germans must reduce their stomachs by cutting down their rations not only in food but also In drinks. And they try their best to do it. They eat more substantial food now than they did before. They drink less beer and wine and the ma- jority have dropped ‘brandy and schnapps altogether. During the entire time I was in Germany not only in Berlin but throughout the empire, I did not meet or see a man or woman who was under the influence of liquor, not even in the slightest degree. Sometimes it would appear in Berlir: toddy as if everybody were in mourn- ing. And this applies particularly to the women. No matter where you gv in public places of amusement, In cafes or in the streets, you are bound to run into someone dressed in black. In the beginning of the war the au- thorities tried to impress the people whose relatives had died in battle that they shoyld not go into mourning, cer- tainly not as far as garments are con- cerned, But this was one order or sug- gestion. to which the home people did not take. They insisted that they would wear black when necessary. It. seemed as if some wete only too proud to show ‘that one of thelr’relatives had sacrificed | | his fe dor the honor and glory of Kais-{. er and Fatheriand. Cafes Are Filled Nightiy. But so far as the public resorts and the places of amusement are concerned all are doing an excellent business. The cafes are crowded day and night. The concert halla are thronged nightly. The Of the latter there are some where soldiers and sailors in uniform are not admitted. There are places where wom- is: Government is posta th Germany just now.
