Vhen, 10 minutes la- ter, I looked, I saw the buoy again, still at the same distance behind us. 1 steered to the right and then to the left, but the buoy kept on following us. I descended deep into the water, but still saw the buoy floating on the sur- face above us. At last I discovered that we had caught the chain of the buoy and that we were dragging it along with us. At this time I also saw through the periscope that a strange small steamer was steering a course directly behind us and the buoy.

M. Friede by Daughter of Dr. D. F. Hochdoerfer. HAS WORKHOUSE RECORD Said to Have Pawned Girl’s Ring, Then to/Have Taken Others to Redeem It. A police search for Myron M. Friede, 28 years old, who lived at 5315 Delmar boulevard, has revealed how he made away with jewels valued at $1975 he- longing to the family of Dr. Daniel F. Hochdoerfer, Coroner’s physician. Friede had been calling for nearly a year on Miss Catherine Hochdoerfer, the physi- cian’s daughter, 18 years old. The disappearance and consequent in- vestigation further revealed to the Hochdoerfer family that Friede was a paroled workhouse prisoner, having in 1913 and 1914 served nine months of a year’s sentence for passing worthless checks. The police also have been in- formed that he ‘was sentenced to six months in the workhouse in San Fran- cisco on a similar charge and was pa- roled. Jewels Not Missed. Dr. Hochoderfer told the police that the jewels were taken at different times and that they were not missed for sev- eral weeks. He said his daughter told him that shortly before Christmas Friede told her he was going to New York and wanted to “make a flash.” At his suggestion, the daughter said, she loaned him her mother’s ring, con- taining 13 diamonds, and valued at $600. Friede returned about New Year’s and tuld her that in New York he had been in a game of some kind and had lost money, and that he had had to pawn the ring. He suggested that if he had her ring, ,nlued at $125, he could get the other, and later could recover her ring. She gave it to him. Got Grandmother's Ring. She said that fe soon returnea with a on. her ring, but that grandmother's ring, valued at $350, he could get Hier mother’s ring. She gave him her gran@mother’s ring, but soon he returned, she said, and explained that he still did not ‘have enough. At his suggestion, she then let him have diamond earrings belonging to her grandmother, valued at $1000. She did not see him after this. A short while later the family discovered the loss of the jewels. Dr. Hochdoerfer told the police that a few days ago one of Friede’s friends tald members of the family that. Friede had eloped to Kansas City with a girl who worked in a department store. Dr. Hochdoerfer this morning refused to discuss the case with newspaper re- porters. Police records show that Friede, in November, 1913, was sentenced to one year in the workhouse for passing two worthless checks, one for $, drawn on the Grand Avenue Bank, and one for $16, drawn on the Franklin Bank. Both were passed on taxicab drivers in pay- ment for rides. oe ate te a AR ———- os municipal bonds. Mrs. Nugent had been searching for her father since his disappearance.

ROME UN A ROYAL TRAIN Italians Honor Him ‘and Queen Welcomes Dejected Monarch at the Palace. PEACE PLAN CALLED RUSE Premier Asserts It Was to Gain Time; Army Supplies Said to Have Been Ignored. ROME, Jan. ‘4.—King- Nicholas of Montenegro, accompanied by his son. Prince Peter, and by three officers of his suite, arrived in Rome yesterday from Brindisi, in the royal train, which had been put at his disposal to empha- size the purpose of the Italian Govern- ment in wishing to do him honor. King Nicholas, who was dressed in the na- tional costume with black cap, white jacket and red sas! looked very worn, as a result of his hurried trip on horse- back_.from Rodgoritza to the sea and the subsequent passage and ~— trip from Brindisi. King Victor Emmanuel met the King of Montenegro at Ternini terminal sta- tion, where an immense crowd had gath- ered to applaud him. They proceeded in automobiles to the villa Savoia, where Queen Helena, daughter of King Nich- Olas, awaited him with her four chil- dren. The exiled monarch left Rome at 9 p. m. to join his wife and two daughters in Lyons. Peace Proposal Called a Ruse. Premier Miouchkovitch of Montene- who declared on his arrival at Brindisi that King Nicholas had pre- pared documents justifying the conduct of himself and nis Minister in regard té peace negotiations with Austria, is quot+ ed in a dispatch from Brindisi to the Stefani News Agency as saying that Montenegfo arranged a truce with Aus- tria as a ruse, to enable her to gain time. Such a step was necessary after the capture ‘of Mount ‘'Lovcen by the Austrians, the Premier is reported te ‘have said, and it gave the Montenegrins @ week's time to prepare the retreat into Albania, in the effort to effect a jnnction with the tne and defend ‘Soutari, tien © Peg ty ‘Many more suraiiesa from. Mohunasee and Albania, including 60 Servian depu- tiles, have reached Bari, Brindisi and Rome. Some additional light as to the situa- tion in‘ Montenegro, Albania and Servia has been obtained through G. W. Bake- man and B. J. Strong of the American Sanitary Commission, and George L. Lorillard, who has been in Servia for the United States Government to pro- tect the interest of Austrian prisoners of war held by the Servians. Bakeman and Strong have arrived at the American embassy, having iteft San Giovanni di Mende for Brindisi in one of the last vessels to depart from that abandoned Albanian town. Lorillard nas been in Rome for several days. Says Big Battles Were Myths, Views expressed by Bakeman anil Strong are that the so-called sanguinary Montenegrin battles have in reality nut been very heavy and that not 40 men had been wounded there in six months. The Montenegrin Government, they said, was in readiness to leave the country for Italy or Greece whenever the step became necessary. Lorillard did not deny the views of Bakeman and Strong, which also indi- eated that since the beginning of the war the Montenegrin Government had an Understanding with” the Austrians which made it unsafe for any attempts to be made at receiving succor from Italy or other entente allies. ‘IT wish to say,” sald Lorillard, “‘tinat Italy has done fine work as far as siw was able in helping the Servians. Silic has kept her good faith in getting -foou and other supplies to the Serviars aia refugees.” Lorillard said the sanitary conditions of the Servian army were very dad. There were 100,000 men now scattered along the coast from Scutari to Duraz- zo. Typhus, cholera and smallpox were prevalent. and the roads were litterea with starving and dying men and horses. The Servians were tired out. They had been visited too much by charity com- missions and had received too much ad- vice and no help. Too many French English and Italian officers had visited them, but with no accompanying sol- Giers to give them real assistance. Food | was very scarce in Montenegro, but any help must come from Austria. Lor- illard said that he had no personal opin- ion to express in regard to the situa- tion and that his scheme merely re: fiected things he had seen or conversa- trons he had held. Sakeman, who has long been on the Adriatic coast, said: “It is true that the entents allies sent hundreds of tons of food and munitions to San Giovanni! di Medua at great riw:. The harbor there is a safe one “rom at- tack. King Nicholas, however. woull not come for the supplies or send for them. Instead, I saw his soldiers curv away loads of furniture for his palace. “The ship on which we left Albania was fired upon by aeroplanes and sub- marines as we were leaving San Gio- vianni di Medua. . “The price of bread when we ieft was 10 francs per kilo (230 pounds), w.lie] hay was selling for 2 francs per kilo and sugar at 10 frances.” Se ee ee aes American, is recently returtied report- ed to have said after the fall of Mount | Leveen: “Qpe man could. have defended Lov- pte ls te en me -_ ° Dee Me ae hoe Caen Princess of Montenegro, From Which Monarch Has Fied 9 EE EO = ee 5 al gg 2, Rear raeaee eae Wot ee - WIFE HANGS SELF | W IYI CLL Edward L. Mackey Was to Have Gone to Trial Today on Charge of Murder. Edward I. Mackey, a carpenter, @ years old, who shot and killed his wife in her home, 3922 Delmar boule- vard, last September, hanged himself in his ¢gell on the third floor of the new city jail sometime last night while his cellmate slept. Mackey was to have sone to trial this morning for the mur- der of his wife. Many note~ were written by the pris- ener before he committed suicide and these indicated he had been preparing for the act for several days. His body was discovered by a guard about 5:30 o'clock this mofning. A rope made of strips torn from the sheet on his bed had been tied to the bars in the top of his cell, and the other end fastened around his neck. After stuffing bits of sheeting Into his mouth and ears he sat on the edge of his cot, and leaning half sidewise and half forward, with the weight of his upper body on the rope, strangled to death with his head about six inches from the cot. Mackey placed the notes he had writ-; ten in a well-thumbed prayer book. ne directed the prayer book be given to Nis sister, Mrs. Anna Gurwitz, 1832 Division street. Another instructed his daughter, Fermine, 16 years old, a stenographer, to repay an $80 loan “if she wished any happiness in life," and another asked that he be buried “‘without any rubber- necks hanging around.’ Another note contained best wishes for two fellow- prisoners awaiting trial for murder. | Shooting Accidental, He Writes. A lengthy note containe.! a defer.se for the shooting of his wife. lie said the shooting occurred accidentally when she grabbed the revolver which he was holding in an attempt to frighten her. He accused another man of breaking up hie home. He said he had no friends who would testify for him anc preferred death to further imprisonment. Mackey shot his wife four times in the breast on Sept. & his fifteenth wedding anniversary, and the day after she haJ sued him for divorce. Then he piaced the muzzié of his revolver in his mouth and shot himself. He was not seriously hurt by the shot and falling to lose con- sciousness, he stabbed himself over the) heart.

Paris Ruenos Aires, Tokie and Pekin. The information sought “at home,” he said, was as to available ships, sources of supply, resources of various kinds, in- formation, he said, of great military Value. “Are naval attaches of other govern- ments seeking the same inside informa- tion in this country that our attaches ere seeking at foreign capitals?” asked Representative Hensley. All Seeking Information, “They are trying to,’’ replied Rear- Admiral McGowan, smilingly. Members of the committee plied the witness with questions about the $30,000 fund, but he parried them. “Every Government has attaches at the other Government capitals to find out what the other Government does not want them to know?” asked Repre- sentative Hensley. “I wish we knew more here abont what they are doing abroad,” remarked the Rear-Admiral. “You need twice as much money for spying than last year?’ “We need twice as much more for ac- quiring information.” A committee representing the Amer- ican Medical Association and local med- ical societies from every state, urged upon President Wilson today the neces- sity of having increases in the army medical corps keep pace with the pro- posed increases in the army.

WASHINGTON, Jan, 24.—The Supreme Court today upheld the constitutionality of the income tax taw. Chief Justice White announced the @ecision in the case of Frank R. Brush- @ber, stockholder of the Union Pacific Rallroad, who sought to énjoin the com- pany from paying the tax on the ground that {t was unconstitutional. Most of Justice White’s opinion was firected toward overruling the conten- tion that the income tax amendment tax provided a hitherto unknown power of taxation. Going far into the history of income tax legislation, the Chief Justice concluded the argument was without ‘ gmerit. Other Points Answered. Advancing to other points, the Chief Justice held that the tax was not un- constitutional because it was retroactive. The argument that the law was un- constitutional because labor, agricultu. yal and horticultural organizations and such were exempt, the Chief Justice held, Was answered by decisions under the corporation tax law. He said the point was only another illustration of an erroneous assumption that the tax was imposed under a new power con- ferred upon the Government by the six- teenth amendment, whereas it was a power recognized to exist from the be- ginning of the Government and. thus decisions defining the taxing power pre- viously rendered were applicable to it. Then grouping a number of other con- tentions against the law, all based on the clause of the Constitution requiring uniformity in taxation, Chief Justice White pronounced the mall dacking in merit, because of previous decisions which determined that the clause ex- acted only a geographical! uniformity. List of Cententions. The group included the contentions that the tax lacked yniformity because it Levies one tax on incomes of indi- viduals up to $20,000 and a higher rate on incgmes above that amount, allows @ greater exemption for married per- sons than single ones and bases the tax MUNDAY KVENING, JANUARY 24, 1916. — i 7 f cad ees eee % , oye mL a Fs i ee ea ee 2 ea . - Se 8 Sm ¥ - be 3 ie WA , a POE LESION EMO IE NEE IOROR te .

Miss Franklin, assisted by her hus- band, Burt Green, who plays the piano and sometime® leads the orchestra, wan- ders on and off during the course of the entertainment, and sings her own songs in her own way, but while she is the ‘“featured’’ member of the large cast, she is by no means the whole show, and, in fagt, is threatened several times with dislodgment from first posi- tion. There #s, for instance; Mercedes Lo- renze, a clever and pretty girl, who looks like Mrs. Vernon Castle and sings almost as badly as that dancer, but who scores heavfiy on looks and personality. And then, too, there is Anna Wheaton, who excels in voice and dancing, and Jimmy Hussey, a comedian of the Wil- lie Howard type, who plays Nathan Murphy Cohen, and who explains that the Murphy is put into his name just for protection. Also there is Robert Hig- gins, a recruit from vaudeville; Will H. Philbrick, who is very funny 4s a detec- tive,,and Peggy Hudson, who is pleas- ing as Ruth Chatterbox, an embryo leading lady. ‘Within the Loop,”’ which was written and named for Chicago, and which, for some reason which cannot be explained failed to be enthusiastically welcomed in that city, is in two acts an& some eight or nine scenes, and there is not a dull moment. A scene in the second act, laid in the operating room of the Double Cross Dental College, is as laughable as anything seen in a musica! show in a long time. A Hawaiian orchestra helps out the general gaiety on the stage, and between acts plays native music from 8 box. The dance by one of the Mawalian women, in the second act, might well be dis- pensed with. The chorus is large and xood looking and wears, as a rule, more clothes than is customary in a show of this type. “POP” CONCERT ATTENDED BY LARGEST AUDIENCE OF SEASON Ses at, quite a pace for The Fol- ule i i > oy Pa . ter imee Program Made Up of More Tunefal Works of Several Classic Composers, The biggest crowd of this season of consistently large audiences attended the “pop” concert of the Symphony Or- chestra yesterday at the Odeon and heard Directer Zach and his musicians perform one of their most excellent Sunday afternoon programs, assembled from the more tuneful works of several classic composers. A row of extra chairs was required at the front to ac- commodate the overflow from the seats. Among the numbers played were the rousing Coronation March from Meyer- beer’s “The Prophet,” Tschaikowsky’s thunderous ‘1812 Overture,” two toe- teasing Hungarian dances by Brahms, Wagner's stately “Procession of the Knights of the Holy Grail,” from “Par- sifal,"”” and Chabrier’s colorful rhapsody, “Espana.” The extra numbers were Mendelssohn's “Spring Song,”’ Drigo’s “Serenade” and Zach's “Oriental March.” As has happened on every pccasion this season, with two exceptions, when the “pop” concerts provided a soloist, this feature of yesterday’s program failed to measure up t@pthe professed aim of these concerts, which ts to spread correct musical standards among the ‘Public.

Members of the Citizens’ Committee, during the last week, have publicly ex pressed their desire to see every one of the 67 accused men sent to the pen!- tentiary. Rice A. Pierce, leading counsel for the defense, who also defended the Reel- foot night riders in Tennessee, today paid to the correspondent: “I am con- vinced that all those actually guilty of either attack have teer sentenced. There are many yet to be tried, who joined one of the organizations under the impres- gion that they were gettting into a lab.sr union. Once in, the threats of their captains kept them in.’’ While Judge McCarty waited here yes- terday for a verdict in the case of Noah Willoby, the Willoby jury, which was in no such hurry to get through, enjoyed an all-day game of pitch and a turkey dinner. “‘It’s the eatin'est jury I ever did see,” remarked John, the veteran wait- er of the hotel, after the dozen men had consumed 90 hot biscuits, each near- ly as big as a saucer, for breakfast. Judge McCarty had; planned to go home to Caruthersville over Sunday, but on failing to get a verdict in the Willoby case Saturday night, he told the jury he would remain here over Sunday, and EEL YOUNG! it’s Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets for You! would receive the verdict whenever it was reached. j The jury began discussing the case after its hearty breakfast. Then it was discovered that the Judge’s written in- structions had been misplaced, and a Deputy Sheriff was sent to look for them. By ‘the time the instructions were found a deck of cards had been obtained, and a game of pitch had be- gun, which lasted, with stops for meals and for one short discussion of the case, until 11 o’clock last night. As the Willoby jury had no ver- dict ready this morning, the trial of John Allen, on the charge of taking part in the assault on Adkisson, was begun. Hobart Shipman, a beardless youth with a continuous grin, testi- fied that Allen was with the gang on the night of the attack, but de- parted before Adkisson was beaten. Roosevelt Trip to Begin Soon.

Suméinarized, the Pan-American declaration for nations em- braces: : 1. The right to exist, with the recognition of this right for all nations. 2: The right to independence for free develop- ment, uncontrolled by any other nation, pro- vided it concedes tKis right to all other nations. 3. The right of equality under law among all nations. . 4. The right to its defined territory and to invi- olable sovereignty with its boundaries. 5. Respect for the equal rights of all nations under international law. The fate of small nations, not only in the past, but in the present supposedly high tide of civill- zation and the causes of war, friction and arma- ments demonstrate the need of a declaration and, an acknowledgment of national rights under inter- national law. - : Can the leading nations be induced to subscribe and conform to such a declaration? Who can say what will be the mind of the peo- ples of the nations when the present destructive war madness is over? The republics of this hemisphere recognize the declaration of individual rights and wil] doubtless, | in principle and from considerations of self-in- ferest, adopt the statement as a controlling prin- ciple of international law and relations, Europe may come to it in the devastation wrought by disregard of national rights. The adoption of it by the nations of America is in itself a long step toward the essentia! foun- dation of permanent peace and world order.

It was a Turkish submarine which sank the liner Persia in violation of international law and the ‘pledges of the Teutonic allies, according to the newest explanation. Turkey's success as & maritime Power and the important part it has played in the development of the undersea boat make this highly probable. The next tragedy of the sort at sea with loss of American lives pre- sumably will be due to that other great maritime | power and acknowledged factor in the develop-| ment of the undersea boat, Bulgaria. : . But after that who will be responsible? If more passenger ships are to be sunk as the Lusitania, the Arabic, Ancona, the Persia were sunk, another Teutonic ally seems to be needed. : ’ » » » ~~ MORALITY AT $8 A WEEK. | It has taken the Illinois Vice Commission, pre- | sided over by a sensational Lieutenant Governor, two years and a half to reach the conclusion that female virtue in that State involves a matter of about $8 a week.

The old furnace property in Carondelet, which was a survival of a much larger iron industry of a former generation, has been purchased by the company and when overhauled and repaired the plant will have a capacity of from 600 to 600 tons of ore a day. As this was about the capacity of the old plant, it is to be assumed that the $5,000,000 capital of the new company looks to much larger operations in the future. The importance of the enterprise to Missouri will be appraised in part from the extent to which it supplies for Missouri ores that local market which for many months has been cut off. While this State has no iron deposits compar- able in extent or ease of approach to those of the north, there are here and there within its limits deposits of considerable value which have been mined from time to time on a small scale. With a nearby market for al) that could be profitably produced, these mining operations would increase and become an important source of State wealth. For some time past ore produc- tion in Missouri has been confined to the needs of charcoal furnaces of limited capacity. But, of course, a larger phase of the new en- terprise’s possibilities is found in its-supply of St. Louis needs in pig iron. / The use of various forms of iron and steel in the metal working plants on both sides of the river requires a consumption of. approximately 1000 tons of basic iron a day in ‘the entire St. Louis industrial district. All those processes for which pig iron is the raw material should be sup- plied from St. Louis’ own production. With an abundance of cheap coke from the new byproduct gas plant in South St. Louls the iron industry will have advantages such as it never had even in the most prosperous days of the past. Indeed, the promoters of the new company will have calculated wisely if, surveying general com- petitive conditions, they have looked beyond even our own large iocal needs and planned for a greater industry in which full. utilization will be made of low-cost river transportation and for an output of wide distribution in the Mississippi Valley. CHILD LABOR DAY. One of the movements to be furthered by Child iLabor Day‘is the stimulation of public opinion in support of the Keating~Owen bill, now before Con- gress, to prohibit interstate commerce in products manufactured by child labor, particularly the shipments of the product of mines and quarries employing children under 16, and of products of factories, workshops or canneries in which chil- dren under 14 are employed. Much progress has been made during the past 12 months in legislation against child labor. Twenty states passed laws prohibiting it, and only five states defeated attempts to imprové anti- child labor laws. Wonderful progress has been made in the past 15 years in reducing the pitiful host of children deprived of their childhood and doomed to com- pete with men in daily labor. But there are still a million of these little drudges—a million too many. St. Louis was not alone in showing sharp re- ductions in fire losges during 1915. The total loss of only $1,286,672 forms a creditable record in comparison with the total in other large Amer- ican cities, practically all of which had similarly | gratifying reductions. To continue locally the work of a national campaign for better construc- tion and greater precautions against the outbreak of fire is the object’of the Fire Prevention Club | of St. Louis. Results already achieved indicate that the work is being conducted along the right lines and is efficient and furnish every incentive for increased effort. The club and its organ, the Fire Prevention News, of which Fire Chief Henderson is the en- thusiastic editor, are entitied to the earnest sup- port of all St. Loulsaas interested in safeguard- ing life and property and lessening the burden of fre insurance premium Prtorede® aah Zh on? ’ ‘ PRC er -+tutel** “GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!” are el oh Engg we Mat a 405 t* ee. * «+ . ae t * Se ”% . - “ ae A et i ns oe pp a 2 of 8, Ae Pa é PIES POD 7. ewer — Pe eee OO 0g tt aOR al gl egg a, gO a a gy (gt Egy Lem, —* - egg gg tO cay ag a Og ON PO OO pf Ry Pe yy, My Ay A lt A cat ag Na BOF ly ae - —~ — - - Written for the POST-DISPATCH JUST A MINUTE “sie Son a a a OO eC Oe tay caitlin agli ay - can ei itll ttl ii tata att na ee Oe - ae a Sm, 8 MR. ANTWINE ON PREPAREDNESS. 66 T is not pleasant te contemplate what this a | country is facing,’’ Mr. Antwine said. ‘‘It is about to be swept into militarism of a sort, and nobody seems to be doing anything to prevent it. A few people like Mr. Roosevelt, having the ears of the nation, are telling us what we must do to escape the fate of Belgium, and there is no better advocate of what most people would rather believe than Mr. Bryan, who has talked himself out. ‘*It has seemed to me that Mr. Wilson cannot be- lieve all these people are saying, and that if he had‘ stuck to what is in his heart he would be much better off than he is tojlay. He makes rather a sorry figure leading a militaristic movement, to my way of think- ing. He should have left that to Mr. Roosevelt, and stood for keeping out of the wars of the armed na- tions. As things stand now, both of the big political parties will probably declare for preparedness in their national platforms, and the voter will not be given an opportunity to say what he thinks. He will only be able to choose between men to lead the movement. **I wish I could foresee all the perils which threat- en this country. If I could see them, I might believe in arming against them more than I do. As it is, I cannot see how we are te be disturbed. I can casily see how we might arm ourselves and get into trouble with big armed nations which do not resent us now, but I can’t see the things which alarm politicians who would like to have the people put them im office. It looks to me as if most of the people following Mr. Roosevelt and his kind had been deceived. To my mind there is no such danger to the country as they seem to foresee. It looks to me as if they had Uncle Sam fighting imaginary enemies. I like to contem- plate that spectacle for my soul’s growth—Uncie Sam desperately fighting the thin air on both coasts and arming against the thin air from Boston to Frisco. Tt is a very curious situation, and somehow I can’t help f the worst.’’ CIGARETTES AND FIRES. The experience of the contributer to the letter col- umn who tried to light a fire with a cigarette and found it cannot be done is interesting, but not final. Anything with respect to cigarettes is a matter for the most painstaking deliberation. Too many people like them for a democracy like ours lightly to cast them aside. We think that in the present debate a great deal depends upon the kind of cigarette our cor- respondent was smoking when he made the experi- ment. If we know them as well as we ought, they differ somewhat in inflammability. It is one of the few respects in which they resemble cigars. 3 Many of the same things said about cigarettes and flame are also true of gasoline and cigars.. A lighted cigar can be plunged into gasoline, but we must recall to testify. | 4 MAN WHO HAD OPINIONS. They thought their own were wrong.

He gave a great start and uttered & sharp cry as one of his men removed ‘rom Dan’s pocket the photograph of*the indian girl, which Dan had forgotten all about. . “Why, here's a speculation for ine, im thinking,” chuckled Dan, half an hour later. For, driving the others away and be- traying the deepest interest in the pic- ture, which seemed to arouse strong emotions, the young chief soon made it manifest that he had recognized the photograph as that of an Indian maid- en he had loved and lost sight of. He must find her, he eagerly declared, at all hazards and at any cost! Dan bargained well for his services, aud the young chief had an opulent store of gold nuggets.

I at- tended to my business, which grew rapidly, and to little Jack, who daily became more of a comfort to me. Haskall went to his office each day, but he was moody, non-communica- tive and impatient. At times I could scarcely bear his uncivil treatment... Try as I might it was impossible to please him. He had almost ceased to notice little Jack, who, sensing the change, kept away from him. I had seen Eric Lucknow but sel- dom, but one afternoon I thought I would walk home. My nerves were on edge, and the air would do me good. I had gone but a little way when Eric joined me. “You are looking very tired and worn,” he said. “I am afraid you are working too hard.” “It is not the work, Eric,” I an- swered, quick to see the note of ten- derness in his voice, and to respond to it. “It is not being appreciated that tires, and—hurts me.”, “Things can’t go on forever like this, Katherine!

You'd marry me after allthis muddle and ynhappiness and—waiting, you wouldn’t fail me?” A Canfession of Love. “Wy AIT, dear,” I replied, laying my hand on his arm, and sorry that for a moment even I had seemed to lose my poise, to complain. “Let me think. I’ve got to think what is best for you, for me, and—for Haska!]!.” “Haskall?” “Yes. In spite of all, perhaps be- cause of all, for him. Had he not lost his money, his health to a degree; were he the same independent crea- ture he used to be I would not longer hesitate. But he’s not. His money is gone, his spirit is broken. I MUST consider him. Did I not I never should be happy—not even with you.” “Then you mean’- “Oh, Eric!’ I pleaded, “help me lL pretend that I am trying to do the right and fair thing. But what I am really seeking is some excuse for coming to you, to take my life in my own hands at last and do what I want to do. It may, dear—it may possibly be, Eric, that you and I may pull something out of the wreck of our lives. But we must be careful, wé¢, must go slow.” I hestitated. “We must not injure any one to make our happiness. If we did it wouldn't last.” “You love me, Katherine?’ “You know, Eric.” “[ shall wait, dear.” Then with just one loving look into my eyes he was gone. Pleasure Trip Proposed. S I climbed the steps. all . A weariness returned two-fold. “What makes you so late?’ Haskall asked. . “I walked home. I was tired and thought the walk would refresh me.” I started to explain that Mr.. Lucknow had walked with' me, but something kept me quiet. Why make things more unpleasant by telling? So in- stead I said: “I had a very good day at the shop today, one of the best I have had. Suppose we go to Atlantic City over Sunday? It would do us both good.” “What do you want to go to At- lantic City for?” he grumbled after a moment. “You know very well I can’t afford to do those things now.” “But I can, Haskall. I have had a splendid month, as I told you.” I did not remind him that even when he could afford it he seldom took me anywhere for pleasure. “Oh, very well; if you feel you must go, I'll go with you,” Haskall finally remarked. (To Be Continued.). Fish That Travel on Land. HAT certain species of fish are able actually to flop over the land is the remarkable discovery of a Johns Hopkins professor, according to the February Popular Science Monthly. In the course of his Investigations the rrofessor noticed that such fish as min- nows are often found in the little tem- porary pools that are left in the sand hy the retreating tide. If the minnows are so unwary as to be caught when the en- trance is biocked, they actually leave the water and flop over the sand to the cea. The professor has often seen scores and score’ of these fish leave large pools and travel over sand bars more than 12 feet wide and half a foot high. A remarkable feature about this dis sovery is that the fish never take the wrong direction for any great distance. When fish travel on land, the professor aeserts, they spring snakes or «anga. roos by sudden bends of the body. Al- though itn its fall the fish may find its head turned the wrong way, it never- thetess makes its next leap in the proper direction. There researches raise the question: Is there some mental machinery at work in the tissues of fish, which may be in. stinct, which may be sense, and which may be something allied to memory? - yY The Man With the Mask.

A. Walker. PART II. ARLY the next morning the little - bee woke Tim up. After a break- fast of honey and eggs, the two started on through the forest toward the city, the bee floating on before in the sunlight like a tiny speck of gold. At noon Tim came out of the woods just at the top of a hill. Far below stretched a level, green plain, in tho center of which stood a palace of white stone. Then Tim noticed coming across some distant mountains what looked like a great black cloud. The thing moved onward and the boy saw it was a vast army of men, whose bodies were cov- ered with curly brown hair and whose faces were a bright green. In their hands were long, keen swords that flashed in the sun and made the dark ranks of soldiers look as if sprinkled with diamond dust, “That is the army of the Bobo, who lives beyond the mountain,” said the bee, sailing close to Tim. Just then a King’s herald rode by. He read a paper out loud to Tim: Whoever will drive the Bobo away Shall marry the beautiful Princess May “Let us try to help the King!” ex- claimed Tim. “Don’t know what we could do,”’ re-, plied the bee. “Well, we are tired and can take a nap ‘for an hour,’ said Tim, dropping on the ground. He laid his head on 4 bed of violets and soon forgot how <ired he was, for the little purple blossoms were talking. the King are in trouble,” said one, a bit taller than the rest. ‘She is a sweet, gentle lady, and the old King is so good.

He was admitted to see the King, for the poor man grasped at any hope to get out of his trouble. “I can defeat the Bobo,” said Tim, bravély. “What! you, a-tiny, ragged lad, when he has his army and no one can harm him at'all?” exclaimed the King. “Yes, I mean it,” replied the boy. “Just do what I say. Order your best soldier to meet the Bobo in a single fight before your men and the en- emy tomorrow at noon. Get the Bobo to say that if he is defeated ; army will retreat, then place your own men in the woods out of sight at the left. Tell them not to charge till Il blow the bugle.”’ T so the King agreed quickly. At noon the next day the King’s soldiers went out on the plain and soon «he huge Bobo stalked out, too.

And the children Came so fast that there was little or no time to consider herself’ or her own pleasures—which is the way The husbanfi took all this as a mat- ter of course; and went about his business, leaving the care of it all behind him. But this is not the only thing he left behind him. He left behind his evil spirit to rancor and hurt and wound during the whole day. But before he went aborv ; business he donned his best looking ‘clothes, his highly polished shoes, his |warm overcoat and—a mask. This mask made him look 10 years younger and to .ppear always with a smile, and an interested look, that invited confidence and respect. No one had ever seen him (except his family) WITHOUT this mask. | Therefore people labeled him a very genial gentleman, and he was rather successful wherever he went. Many men are success- ful like that.. If these masks were but stripped from them for a moment, some horrible features would be disclosed underneath. On a few ocensions the wife of this man had come down to his office and seen her husband with | the mask. She marveled at it. He was such an attractive crea- ture when he wore the mask, How she wished he would wear it at home, sometimes! She knew him aS no one did. But the woman sighed and went home to reflect on what a difference that public mask made in her husband. For her he had only grouches and for the outside } World all the GRINS. Now it came to pass that the man left home one morning braced for a big business deal which was to come off that day; and he polished up his mask in trying to carry out the en- terprise. At dinner time it was not yet finished. He did not wish to let it go till morning, and, knowing that a good dinner turneth away objec- tions, he telephoned his wife in the presence of the prospective customer, as follows: “Hello darling! May I bring Mr. Smith home to dinner? TI told him it would just be a nice little family meal, and I know you won't mind.” The wife knew he had the mask on before the customer and that she must drop everything and prepare a sumptuous repast. She did. This time the man wore his mask clear into his home, when he brought the visitor. He greeted his wife and children most cordially; and of course they were surprised, But after the dinner had proceeded, something happened right in the to the business. soup. In the man’s mask fell off and his usual self was seen. He broke out in loud criticism of the occurrence and usual, did not spare his wife. The visitor saw = his ;; the mask would become threadbare so that the real man would be seen through it. The deal was declared off and this good.fellow had the interest of hu- manity at heart enough to explain the reason. The man with the mask then realized that others might find him out. He therefore studied his mask and began an effort to make himself truly act as he looked—at home as well as abroad. MORAL: *"F YOU VW “LD ST"r°P A MAN OF HIS MASK, LEARN HOW HE TREATS HIS FAMILY.

That Germany at present has at leas* 9000 war planes in active use, is the statement attributed to one of the high- er officers last month. ‘This officer, when the military attache of one of the South American nations commented on the plans of the British tiovernment to build 10,000 aeroplanes, remarked cas- ually: “‘We have more than 9000 our- selves!’ In this connection it is also reported that along/the Russian front, only an exceedingly thin line of Infantry holds the trenches, and that nearly 2000 aero- planes are cruising above the battle lines in the East, notifying the German heaa- quarters in ample time of any move- ments along the Russian front.

LEDS PLAYING Former Champions Display Old Time Form Against Millers in Rough Contest. It took some heroic work on the part of Goalkeeper King and Fullbacks Shea and Lancaster to save the Ben Millers from a defeat at the hands of the &t. Leos, in the opening clash of the St. Louis Soccer League at Robison Field yesterday. As it was, the two teams wound up on even terms, 1—l. The bat- tle between the Innisfails and Naval Reserves also ended in a I—i draw. The twin bill yesterday was witnessed by the largest crowd of the season, about 2800 patrons being present. The turnout was the biggest that has wit- nessed a soccer contest here since the Taconys of Philadelphia called at Ath- letic Park a good many years ago. It was greater than the crowd that was present at the Pullman-Innisfail game during the Christmas holidays. That contest between the Leos and Millers was one of the roughest staged on a local field in many a day. It re- minded the fans of the good old Ath- letic Park days, when the feature was a clash between the Leos and Innis- fails. The Nationals of Detroit went home eaying local elevens were too rough. t they should have seen the game yesterday. Leos Have “‘Come Back.”’ That ‘‘comé-back’’ of the St. Leos looks like the real thing. Since Branni- gan took charge the blue and white has won one of its contests and tied the- other. The players are showifig more speed and “pep” than they have at any other time this year, possibly barring the engagement with the Pullmans. After the first 20 minutes of play Brannigan’s kickers ran rings around their Opponents, but, with King, Shea and Lancaster playing the greatest games of their careers, they were wn- able to put through a deciding marker. The Millers were first to score. Harry tatican garried the ball Jown the field after about 17 minutes of play and took a shot. Sheehan cleared it, but the Hat- tore were not to be denied. Ratican came back with the sphere and crossed to McLaughlin, who sent it through. Harry McCarthy, a halfback, was re- | SPonsible for the 10-time ehampions, lone count. It came in the second half and McCarthy shot it from the l5-yard line. Just before the game ended Manager Brannigan was chased for using improp- er language. After witnessing the opener, the sec- ond clash looked like child’s play. There was none of the rough work on display. The two eleven just went about their work playing soccer and nothing else. The Innisfails started as if they were going to walk away with the contest. They counted shortly after the game started, Menendez shooting after taking a cross from McCaffery. Right there they stopped. Five minutes later the Reserves tied the count, Mulvey fending it past McNamara. Just before the final whistle the Navals were awarded a penalty kick, but Schwartz s shot went 10 yards wide. ll v No. 2, at Cleveland gym went Schoo} triple- Sunda ieadan an wisiana Hall, 7:4 WEDNESDAY. _——_——_— — Oo Oo Oe Oe Oe Oe OO ee ee ee ee tal i i i t,t i i i i a i "a a Careee = kes <a oo A vs. Bank of Com- merce, at ashington University, 7:4. p. m.

LOUIS, Jan. 20, 1916. J. E. Wray, Sporting Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Friend Wray: There is a great field here for a boxing commission among whose various duties would be smoke abatement at public boxing contests. For real cleverness and clean boxing the Murphy-Kaba- koff bout was a rare treat. That is, a rare treat on the part of the competitors. They toed the scratch, battled hard and showed the public the best they had. He they were asked by the and spectators te ates under tions that were almost I am speaking of the tobacco smoke. The smoke was so dense that, from where I sat in the third row from the front, I was unable to see the faces on the other side of the ring, some W feet away. The preliminary bouts were knockouts—by tobacco smoke. These prelim boys—comparatively inexperienced—would have lasted six or eight rounds in the open or in any place where breathing was good. For one who has competed in- doors under similar bad condi- tions, it is hard to determine which is the more remarkable physical fent—the clever, fast boxing of the boys or their ability to undergo it under the vicious conditions imposed. Nér does it speak much for the sportsmanship of the spectators. It certainly is not FAIR to expect honest competition under the une FAIR conditions imposed, For the future of our United States we need and must encour- age more hardy, rough, face-to- face competition, conducted in ab- solute fairness and sportsman- ship.

ILLIAM McCARNEY, who devel- oped one white hope in Lute Mc- Carty, is now busy puncturing another. in a letter to Walter St. Denis he stabs Fulton’s bubble reputaion, letting out ali of the hot-air. If what MecCarney writes is true—and outside evidence shows some of it is—Fulton’s merit must be in the same relation to his reputation as his pocketbook is to his desires. McCarney explains in detail how Ful- ton has been exploited by various sport- ing characters, including McCarney him- self—without success. He points out that Fulton’s reputation, as shown in is record now being circulated, is mis- represented in the Palzer, Carl Morris and Arthur Pelky bouts. ne adds that he has a standing offer =f Carl Morris, and winds up by tell- ing everyone to be careful a boosting: “an unknown hunkie.” After about a column of this.

By Leased Wire From ‘the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. %—The Evening tpday in its copyrighted financial review yy, says: “Professional traders exerted preseure against the stock market to good effect today. Accompanying their selling or- eo with a number of direful predic- tions regarding the future, they forced the list down 1 to 2 points on the ma- . | jority of speculative stocks, and more than t on particular issues. “Railroad stocks that were inactive all of last week assumed a more prominent part in the trading at the expense of their prices; they declin ed as much as the average list of industrials declined. Outside interest in the market, on the buying side, was restricted, which gave “pportunity for the bear traders to in- crease their advantage. This they did by actively discussing the iabor situa- tion on American railroads, by pointing to the foreign liquidation that goes on in this market, and by saying that to- morrow, when directors of the United States Steel Corporation meet, they will vmit again the laration uf a dividend on the common stock. Market Is Lower. “The combined effect of all this was to create an uncertain feeling and to per- mit bearish initiative to rule in the day’s market. There were occasions when prices rallied, and when the ex- pression of discouraging views was countered by others. But on the whole the day was one of declining prices, with a moderate recovery in the closing hour of business. “Chiefly talked about among the stock market factors was the effect of the continued liquidation of American bonds and stocks from. abroad.”’ The Steel Dividend. “Considerate thought was given to the prospect of dividend changes during the coming week. Directors of the Steel Corporation will meet tomorrow for div- idend action; directors of the St. Paul Railroad will meet on Wednesday, and directors of the Goodrich Co. will meet on Thursday. “In the steel directors’ meeting great- est interest was shown, but Wall street had no source of definite information regarding what would be done, and could only venture to guess that, in view of high-record earnings, there would be a resumption of the common dividend that was omitted a year ago, and had been omitted every quarter since. ‘A downward reaction in foreign ex- change rates made it manifest that re- mittance against stocks, sent here from abroad, were not overcoming entirely in their larger influence the country’s export trade. There was no movement in exchange rates that called for par- ticular comment, the tone was easy and rates on Paris and Berlin, as well as on London, were lower.’"’ Lendon Selling Stocks. ‘‘In the interval between Saturday's closing of the Stock Exchange and this morning's opening, securities sold from England were brought to New York on two Atlantic liners. They were deliv- ered in Wall street this morning. As on former occasions when bonds and stocks were brought from abroad, various es- timates were made concerning the value of-the latest arrivals; they ranged from $25,900,000 to $50,000,000. ‘‘Representing deliveries against sales aiready made, these securities were not offered on the market. At the same time, they had a distinctly depressing effect on prices, and for a time brought about outright weakness. ‘Boiling down the extreme estimates that have been made of security arriv- als from abroad since the opening of the month, and conforming them to the astt- mates of conservative observers, it be« comes pretty well established that the aggregate for January thus far is in ex- cess of $100,000,000. What proportion railroad shares have contributed is dif- ficult to estimate; that their contribution has been substantial is agreed. The pro- portion of the Cymric and New York cargoes ‘was substantial enough to bring about declines of half a point to a point on the market in the first aalf hour of trading this morning. “Yet when the movement of railway stocks for the elapsed part of January is taken into account, it is seen that list has withstood the gee: selling In a manner that might well occasion sur- prise. At today’s lowest price, for in- stance, Atchison was off 244 points from its highest level of the early part of the week. Southern Pacific wag off 4 points; Unton Pacific, St. Paul, Erie, Great Northern and New Haven were off 5 poirtts or thereabout. “From the extent of these declines can be measured the manner in which the market has been support- ed against foreign sales. At the same time, what might be called a ‘satu- ration’ of the market has been going on, and, steady as the railroad list appears to be much of the time, this saturation has prevented the list from navennne. And falling to ad- vance the. st market has lost a large part of ite speculative follow- "Sinvestment ae, but has gone on from the outside, ut ape ee buying has been confined to the pro- fessional Wall street element. Hence ts narrowness and its occasional sharp reactions.” o—-—— NEW YORK BOND SALES . & 4 oy age pee eae ‘ua os .: 388 a0 > oe iy By737 he $28833222 43 wand 7 a - * Serres re at Zn : SEs8st33 > ee “seep eeeereee . *es eee Oe ai ele >.

Cajen lured Count Seiler and the Arch- duchess to Lucerne, promising a pass- port which would enable them to flee to America. No sooner had the Count arrived than he was invited to the villa, where he was confronted with the brother of the Archduchess, a military eral members of the Vienna police. On the same day the English friend of the Count was suminoned by tetle- upstairs room the police, without the slightest comment,. showed him the Count.

And then the two hold-up lads make a hop forward and before the poor little shrimp can get out o’ the way one o’ them's got a bag or some- thin’ over her head, and the other's pickin’ her up and startin’ for the taxicab with her, the big feller in the silk hat givin’ ’em the tip to hurry, and tryin’ to hold back the bunch that’s crowdin’ up. But not a man in-the intire crowd’s steppin’ out to give her any help, and as for the cops, they’re that busy watch- in’ the feller that’s been takin’ the movin’ pitcher, or got vut o” the way when he showed them his card, that they ain't one in sight. And that’s where little William Doody starts’ to explode. 1 give a holler to Smithy. “Come on, you!’’ I says. “D’ you know who that gal is those fellers are Loldin’ up and kidnappin’? The little shrimp that’s been comin’ in to see Em tiaitch lately. Come on!’ ELL, I didn’t wait to see was W Smithy with me or not. Him or somebody grabs me by the coat and tries to hold me back, but I would- n't be held for nobody. I'm loose, all right, and it ain’t two steps before I'm « that bunch that’s tryin’ to put the the other when—bim! bang! zowie! ga)“in the taxi. They tell me I done grand work. The guy in the silk hat says when I hit him it was with my fists and my face and my knees, all at once, and he went over like a chimbley with a rope around it. One o’ the hold- up lads I got, too—got him good, and rear knocked him through the door 0’ the taxi, and I’m just turnin’ to land I dunno who hit me first. I know I tried to grab the gal and duck with her, but they wasn’t any duckin’ out o’ that! I got it good and plenty, and the next thing I knew somebody was holdin’ me up and settin’ me down on the curb- stone about half a block away, and a cop’s shakin’ me and ‘astin’ me am I hurt. ‘“‘Never mind me!’’ I says. ‘‘Where's the gal? Did you save her?’ “Save who?” he says. “The gal that was get- tin’ kidnapped,”’ I says. “I'm Bill Doo- dy,”’-I says. ‘“She’s a friend o’ the Boss,”’ I says, “and I seen her gettin’ held up. Did they save her?’ I says. ‘‘Yer talkin’ thick,” says the cop. “But whether it’s yer lip or yer brain I can’t tell. The best thing for you to do is chase home and get yer eye _ fixed, and”’— “But the gal,”’ I says. “Where is she?” ‘Where you nearly bust things up,”’ he says. “‘Gettin’ the rest o’ the pitcher touok.’”” “What pitcher?” I says. ‘Th’ rnovin’ pitcher,’ he says. ‘“‘The Horrors o Hazel. On the level,” he says, “‘ainjt a rube from the country Jump in and try to rescue the persecuted damsel and spoil a pitcher,” he says, “but I never thought a wise lad like you would.” ’ den—the gal! No wonder I thought Yd seen her face before—‘twas none other than Mary: Murdock, the five-thousand-dollars-a-week movie star, that the Boss had been talkin’ o’ backin’ a big company for lately. And I’d— I looked up to see her comin’ my way, with the big guy I'd near killed, and one o’ the hold-up men, and a bunch o’ the crowd. How I disappeared before they got to me I don’t know. But I did, and the next minute I was ’phonin’ from a cigar store to the office that I was too sick and had went home. I had some trouble makin’ ’em understand what I meant, my lip bein’ that swelled, but they final- ly got it, and I was just steppin’ away when Genevieve O’Reilly hopped on the phone. “Is this you?” she hollers.
