Fairbanks ot Indianapolis, former Vice President, spent 20 minutes of lofty silence in St. Louis this morn- ing, on his way to a Republican cele- bration of Washington’s birthday in Cape Girardeau. “Why is it so dark here?’ he askel John Schmoll, Republican City Chair- man, as they started to walk about the Union Station train shed after Fair- banks’ arrival at 7:40. Schmoll explained atmospheric condi- tions as clearly as he could, and he an4 Mayor Kiel walked briskly beside their guest, both to keep up and to keep warm.

MOVIES OF BLOOD CIRCULATION BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Feb. 22.-- Microscopic moving pictures showins blood circulation in humans have been completed at a sanitarium here under the direction of Dr. C. E. Stewart. Ralph Devel, official sanitarium pho- tographer, superintended the making of the films. These pictures, said to be the first of their kind, will show how the blood is circulated through the body, where and how obstructions arise and the methods of treating poor circula- tion. It took several months under most trying prepmetances to produce these pictures.

EFFECTIVE ON MARCH 1 Company Gave Notice of New Schedule Through Newspaper Advertisements. Steps will be taken to forfeit and re- peal the franchise of the McKinley Traction System, it was stated today by City Counselor Daues, after a con- ference with Mayor Kiel, if the cor- pany persists in its announced plan to increase the five-cent fare between Bt. Louis and Granite City, Ill., on March 1, despite its franchise agreement. A repeal! bill will be introduced in the Board of Aldcrmen and litigation to forfeit the franchise, probably by qu warranto proceedings, will be insti- tuted in the Circuit Court, Counselor Daues said. The Counselor hinted that direct action might be taken also through the City Marshal to prevent the operation of cars 4n violation of the franchise. The Illinois Traction Co.—or McKin- ley System,.as it is commonly knewn —obtained a franchise to enter St. Louls in April, 1907, in the name of a subsid- iary, the St. Loui§S Electric Terminal! Railway Co. This franchise stipulate’ that the company should in considera- tion of the grant charge not more than five cents for adults or 2% cents for children under 12 years of age for a ride between any point on its lines in St. Louis and Granite City. Announce New Rates. Company officials recently have an- nounced through newspaper advertise- rents that the books of this subsidiary show a loss of about $200,000 a year on the present basis of operation, and for this reason it was proposed to increase the rate of fare between St. Louis ana the Tri-cities. The latest announcement was that on March.1.the. would be charged: Between St. Louis points and Main street, Venice, at the other end of the McKinley Bridge, five cents for adults. Between Venice and Granite City, five cents. Commutation tickets, good between St. Louis and Granite City, six tickets for 50 cents, or 81-3 cents per ticket. Special commutation tickets for work- ingmen, good onis during heavy traffic hours morning and evening, 6 cents per ticket. = Doubts if Company Is Losin:rz. Counselor Daues said the city is in a position to show that the McKinley lines are not losing money, as is claimed, by observing the 5-cent fare agreemert. He said the company would have no right to violate its contract, even if it were losing money, and it is the duty of the company officials if they contend they cannot operate successfully under the 1907 franchise, to notify the city and ask the city to consider amendments to the original grant. The Counselor said nec city official has been notified by the company of a pro- posed increase in rates Daues said he had been informed un- officially that the McKinley officials planned to ask the Interstate Commerce Commission ‘o sanction the increase. He said he would file a protest with the commission if such an attempt was made. NEITHER LANE NOR HOUSTON TO GET WAR PORTFOLIO President Said to Consider Each Too Valuable in Present Office to Transfer Him. WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—President Wilson virtually has eliminated Secre- ‘taries Houston and Lane from consid- eration for the office of Secretary of War. It is said in official ‘-cle- that the President believes both of these Cabinet officers are so eminently fitted for their present places that he is very reluctant to transfer either to the *«ar portfolio. Mr. Wilson had not decided on Mr. Garrison's successor last night, and was said to have several middle Western lawyers under consideration. ONLY CITIZENS ELIGIBLE FOR JOBS AS NAVY DRAFTSMEN Department Changes Civil Cervice Rules—-Executive May Empley Aliens in Times of Need. WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—None but American citizens will be eligible to be- come draftsmen in the navy. The de- partment has brought about a change in the examination circulars recentiy is- sued by the Civil Service Commission, which had decided to permit aliens tc take the tests for draftsmen. civil service may use its discretion in employing al'ens when impossible to get citizens to qualify for positions. Be- cause of the shortage of draftsmen the commission decide to employ foreign- ers, but this has been changed. An executive order provides that the] | SUPREME COURT INTIMATES PROPOSED SEGREGATION LAW WOULD BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL Wording of Decision Upholding Le- gality of Election ~ Indicates Judges Believe Ordinance Might Abridge Rights. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 22.—The Su- preme Court yesterday gave a clear in- timation that it considers the proposed St. Louis negro segregation ordinances unconstitutional, and that if a segrega- tion law is enacted at the special elec- tion one week hence, the Supreme Court will knock it out at the first opportunity. This intimation was given in the de- cision which upholds the initiative clause of the St. Louis charter, and whica holds that the call tor the special segre- gation election, which was brought about by petitions under the initiative, is legal. Judge Henry W. Bond, who wrote the Court's Cecision, stated that he was \assing merely on the manner in which the election was called, and that he was not pussing on the proposed segregation ordinances. These, he said, were not subject to a Court’s opinion until they shoul] become enacted into law. “But,’’ he added, “after the lawmaking department of the Government in any vf its forms or by any of its agencies has finished its work, and the act of legisiation in which it was engaged has become fait accompli, and is clothed with the outward forms of law, the question of the construction of the com- pleted bill or ordinance ocecomes one for ultimate determination by the judiciary. “Nor «an it be doubted what judgment would be given if it were shown that a law had been enacted in violation of the funda‘inental principle upon which the Government of the State and nation is *ounded, er destruction of the lega! rights of persons or property of any citizen or class of citizens of the United pean. eS In a previous paragraph of the de- cision, Judge Bond described the segre- gation preposal in a manner which in- dicated that he believed it did destroy the legal rights of citizens. He wrote that the ordinances ‘“‘provide for the use of separate blocks for residence by the white and colored races, and for the gradual complete occupation of blocks by one of the two races, to the exclu- sion of the other.”’ - Chief Justice Woodson of the Supreme Court concurred with Judge Bond's opinion in full, and Judge Graves, who was absent yesterday but returned to- day, announced that he concurred in full. Judges Faris, Blair and Revelle did not concur in the two paragraphs auoted, but it was learned today that they did not dissent from this expres- = sjon.> They thought. that. | not at issue at this time, and hence saw no need of mentioning it. The seventh member of the Court, Judge Walker, was absent yesterday, and has not thus far passed on the Bond opinion. SIX KILLED IN A FIRE IN NEW YORK BOARDING HOUSE Five Men and a Woman (Perish in Building Used by Actorsa—Propri- etor One of Those Lost. NEW YORK, Feb. 22.—Five men and a woman lost their lives early in a fire which destroyed a_ theatrical boarding house above a restaurant in the theater section of the city. Early reports said a number of the actors and actresses had perished, but the dead were identified later as emi- rloyes of the boarding house and Thom- as Keratsas, one of the proprietors. The bodies of a man and woman were found on the top floor at the foot of a ladder leading to the roof. In the hallway on the first floor the bod- ies oc two more men were found, and the hFody of a fourth man, burned be- yond recognition, lay in a bed on the second floor. A body of another man was discov- ered later by the firemen, making a total of six known to have perished. r There were several sensational es- capes as the flames rushed through the building from the basement. One man who jumped from the second floor was seciously injured. There were 20 persons in the house at the time, all actors. MORGENTHAU HAD 10 USE U. §. FLAG LIKE UMBRELLA Duty to See No One Pulled Too Much Over Himself, Ambassador, Re- turned From Turkey Says. NEW YORK, Feb. 22.—dienry Mor- genthau, United States Ambassador to Turkey, arrived today and was met by his wife and by Mayor Mitchel’s recep- tion committee, 40 strong. Mongentnau staid he had just received a note from Secretary Lansing advising him to be guarded in nis speech regard- ing foreign and diplomatic affairs. He will go to Washington tonight. It is understood that he will request an ex- tension of his 60-day leave to May 1. Morgenthau said that at first his duties in Constantinople were merely routine: ‘Soon after the war broke out, however,’’ he continued, “I saw it was necessary, in a way, to make an umbrella of the American flag. I made it my duty to see that no one pulled too much of the umbrella over him- self.’’ WASHINGTON OAK IS CUT DOWN CARLISLE, Pa., Feb... 22.—Last week an immense old oak tree on West High street, at the point where Washington reviewed his army as he marched west to quell the whisky insurrection, was shattered by a storm and cut down. BERLIN NOT TO. | GUARANTEE SAFETY | UF LINERS IF ARMED Germany Expected to Declare “Defensive”? Armament on Ves- sels Is Really “Offensive.” BIG LINERS ARE UNARMED French and English Passenger Steamers Docking in New York Carry No Guns. WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—Confidential advices from Berlin today indicate that Germany soon will inform the United States that her previous assurances that unresisting liners will not be attacked without warning, holds good for ‘ut: -e submarine operations, provided, only, that such liners do not carry arma- ment. The German Government will contend, the advices state, that what now is characterized as defensive armament, really is offensive armament when sub- marines are concerned, and Will propose discussion with the United States of wh-t defensive armament properly may be. As none of the British and Diners liners now clearing from American ports carry any guns, such assurances from Germany will be in the nature of reassurances for the safetv for the neu- trals they carry, even under the terms of the new submarine campaign. How far such assurances will go to- ward meeting the State Departments objection that the Lusitania agreement as at present drawn applies only to the past and not to the future, probably only can be determined when they are formally laid before Secretary Lansing. When the ussurances are to be expect- ea from Beriin was not disclosed, but it is believed they will arrive here within the next few days. There. was no intimation that the date set for the opening of the new campaign, March 1, will be postponed, although that is re- garded as a remote possibility. ‘There were intima-cions from official quarters today that the United States would not permit the nvgotiations over the general subject of armed ships to be drawn out ‘Pindefinttety’ "THe wa MMnistration, it Was said, wants to have the situation clari- tween President Wilson, Senator Stone and Representative Flood, chairmen of the congressional vommittees dealing with foreign affairs and Senator Kern, the Democrat floor leader, last night, was said authoritatively today to have been held in order that the President might inform the congressional leaders on the status of negotiations with Ger- many over the submarine warfare. Unusual interest attached to the con- ference because of the admitted gravity of the situation between the United States and Germany and Austria-Hun- gary, resulting from the rece:it notice of tha Teutonic allied nations that after March 1 all armed enemy merchantmen would be attacked without warning. ORPET TO REMAIN IN JAIL UNTIL HEARING MONDAY No Effort Made to Get Bail for Him After He Is Ordered Held by the Grand Jury. CHICAGO, Feb. 22.—Counsel for Wi:] H. Orpet, the college student held on a charge of murdering his former sweet- heart, Marian Frances Lambert, a Lake Forest High School girl, decided today not to attempt to cbtain his release on bond until after the preliminary exam- ination set for next Mondzy. Orpet was ordered held to the grand jury yesterday by the Coroner’s jury, at the inquest into the death of the girl. The verdict of the jury was that Miss Lambert came to her death by cyanide of potassium poisoning. Chemical anal ysis of poison found at the Orept nome showed it to be cyanide of potassium. KING GEORGE ENTIRELY WELL Doctors Permit Him to Visit Troops in Training. LONDON, Feb. 22.—King George has completely recovered his health and his medical advisers have given him per- mission to resume his visits to the troovs in training.

This trdin was made up in New Haven to carry passengers who otherwise would have gone on the regular express from Boston to New York, leaving New Haven shortly after 11:30. The dead are said to be the flagman of No. 79, and a porter on that tain, the engineer and fireman of the special. and a man and a womar passenger on that train, whose bodies have been seen under the wreckage. At the time of the-collision a freight train was running west on. the next track. When the smash occurred a pas- senger coach was forced over agairist the freight train, adding to the mixup. The boiler of the engine drawing the special exploded, throwing wreckage in every direction. The engine of the spe- cial was thrown down the embankment and was followed by - -the first two coaches. It was not’ believed that any of the passengers on No. 79 were fatally hurt. Most of the passengers in the special were from Hartford and New Haven. When Howard Elliott, formerly of St. Louis, became president of the New Ha- ven Railroad system nearly three years ago, he said his first consideration would be for the safety of passengers and employes. In addition to adopting addi- tional safety devices ‘he \lengthened the running time of some of the fast trains. In an address at the Pulitzer School of Jonrnalism at Columbia University, New York, a few days ago, Elliott said that after a wreck on his railroad he would rather face a thousand bayonets than one reporter.

Francis this morning saw the President and is understood to have accepted the post as Ambassador to Russia. It is im- possible to state definitely whether he accepted, because Francis declined to say and the White. House has made nO announcement. The general’ under- standing, however, is that he~accepted. Later in the day he is to see Secretary of State Lansing. Secretary Lansing was not at his office today, but it is under- stood that Francis was to go to his resi- dence and discuss the general situa- tion. Just when the shift in Russia will be made is not definitely known. Before Francis can take the post this Gov- ernment must be notified that he™sill be persona grata to Russia. It is undek- stood that the Russian Government has not yet been sounded out on the ques- tion of Francis’ acceptability, but as far 2s can be ascertained there are no prob- able reasons why he would not be ac- ceptable. The post at Petrograd has become a diplomatic hoodoo. When President Wil- son first entered office he left the post vacant. for several months and ‘then offered it to “‘Pindell of Peoria,” who contributed to the international galety by making the appointment ridiculous. Representative Sharp of Ohio was then suggested, but the Russian Govern- ment turned him down because he had voted as a member of the Foreign Re- lations Committee for the abrogation of the Russian - American commercial treaty. Finally the President consented to give the post to George T. Marye. Marye came from California. originally and brought with him lots of money, but no diplomatic knowledge or ability. He was an unknown quantity, After re- maining at his post for a little\.more than a year, the State Department was delighted when he got out because of ill health. Because of the difficulties the Pres- ident has encountered In filling the Pet- rograd post with a man of any caliber he is extremely anxious at present that Francis shall accept the post because to remove the bad impression that Rus- sia has gotten of the United States from a diplomatic standpoint, at least Woman, 85, Dies in Reom of Birth.

He laid speci emphasis on his contention that ft present international law on this pol is obsolete, having been designed se 20 er conditions which ceased to exist r years ago. Germany’s Foreign Minister epitor his country’s point of view on this tion in the following words: “The German Government cont First, that there is no such thing 1 actual practice today as merchant armed defensively only; that modern guns and trained naval aboard merchantmen in this addy 3 age constitutes’ such ‘ships. auxiliary W ships for offensive purposes. at in every practical sense and and intention, ‘eel PP ey ie Says Agreement Is ; “Second, that under the conditieai. 4 modern sea. there no lon ists any legitirhate and sound - Bi for arming merchant ships; that t international rule legalizing such ing for, defensive purposes was to amo the nations in quite anc age, and was applicable to the cond tions then existing, when merchat ships were attacked by pirates and p. vateers, which no longer exist & ceased to exist nearly half a cer ago.”’ Desiring to ascertain if there were official information from Wash I called on the Minister at his back of the Foreign Offices.

Prince Munster Tells of Armistice. I talked with Miouchekovitch quite informally in the lounge. of the latter | hostelry. He is tall and has a pointed beard and looks a good deal like a Rus- sian business man. He began by assur- ing me that I would be unable to cable what he wouid teli me, owing to the re- strictions of the French censor, but said he supposed I could send the interview by mail. “Ig it true, as the Austrians says, that King Nicholas signed a treaty of peace with them?’ I asked. “No, that 1s not true,” was the meas- ured reply. “The King signed no treaty whatever, nor did he authorize anyone to sign such a document. We have made no peace with Austria. We merely ne- gotiated at one time for an armistice, but these regociations were broken off when the King left Montenegro. “There is at present nobody in Monte- | negro empowered to make terms witn the enemy. The cnly member of the royal family there is Prince Mirka, who is a prisoner in the hands of the Aus- trians. He and three members of the Government were sent back to Monte- negro from St. Jean de Medua with specific ingtructions from the King. “These instructions were to command our soldiers, in the King’s name, not to surrender to the Austrians, but to 01 jeither disbaad and return home or else * Feeling herself in an impossible posi-| retire into the Albanian mountains, and continue the struggle as best they could.

Altogether Out of the War. “The Austrians, however, penetrated too far south, and he was cut off; with such troops as were left in the vicinity of Podgoritza and Cettinje. I suppose it is true that the Austrians have disarmed great numbers of Montenegrin soldiers, but as the latter had really ceased to be soldiers, that made little difference. We are altogether out of the war now, altough we have not capitulated nor made any peace or armistice.” “What was the cause of the Montene- grin defeat?” “There were many causes,’’ Miouche- kovitch replied. “‘Remember that since 1911, when we fought the Albanians, we have been continuously at war. From the very beginning of the present great struggle our coasts were blockaded by the Austrian fleet, and particularly by submarines, From the beginning we lacked munitions and supplies of all sorts and even food. We so informed the entente Powers and efforts were made to revictual us from Italy. After four Italian supply ships had been sunk, however, and Italian war vessels endangered, Italy found it impossible to continue this attempt. “The only other way lay through Ser- via, but there were no roads, and every- thing had to be sent ‘by ox carts, which took a month te make the trip. We begged the allies to build a road across the 60 es separating our roads from the Servian ones, but although many promises were made, nothing was done. “Then came the retreat of the Serbs through Montenegro. Their coming sent the price of flour from 2 or 8 francs up to 10 francs a kilo (two pounds) and Montenegro faced starvation. All this time we went on fighting as best we could, and neither reinforcements of men nor of munitions nor of food came to our ald. Mount Lovchen Not Impregnable. “Finally the Austrians began their fu- rious attack on Mount Lovchen. The bombardment was terrific, and Lovchen is not, as has been stated, impregnable —particularly when it is defended by men whose ammunition is running low, who are without heavy guns and who are insufficiently fed. “To gain time we began to talk of |peace. The Austrians were quite ready to join in that talk, but the terms they clas and the diplomats accredited to his court. - “Our journey was attended by tremen- dous discomforts and dangers.

They apparently believed that we were traitors to the allied cause. In view of the close re- lationship between the two royal houses it was decided that it was wiser to avoid the danger of any unpleasant de- veiopment by coming straight to France. We have been most generously received here, and so far as I can see, will be odliged to accept the hospitality of the French Government until the end of the war.

Our coasts would swarm with them.’ Points to Jefferson's Principle. “Does anyone contend that such con- ditions exist on the seas today?

We have submitted proof that the English Admiralty have given minute and detailed instructions and orders to take the offensive against submarines on sight. We have submit- ted proof of the execution of these of. fensive instructions. “Our standpoint is that the so-called defensive armament as it exists on Brit- ish merchantmen in a practical sense iz a fiction of the law; that the use _ re- peatedly made of such armament, to- gether with the proofs of the British Admiralty orders and their execution, has given such armed merchant ships the character of auxiliary warships and Germany will consider and treat them as such after the expiration of the no- tice given neutrals.” eee, THE DAY IN CONGRESS.

How four of the McKittricks—Thomas H., his wife, sister and a bvrother—were forced to accept alleged worthless col- lateral for a loan of $300.000 was told yesterday afternoon in Circuit Judge: Shields’ court by Thomas H. McKit- trick, continuing his testimony in the receivership suit of dissatisfied stock- holders against the Hargadine-McKit- trick Dry Goods Co. He said that in Nov., 1911, he informed the syndicate managers in charge of the Railway “xchange Building ven- ture that the Hargadine-McKittrick Co. could put up no more money in fur- therance of the project and in acccrdad- ance with obligations assumed by It. 4 payment was then due and McKit- trick said he was told he would have to furnish the money himself. A family account was taken and it was found that the two brothers, sister, and Mrs. T. H. McKittrick could put up its equivalent, the witness said. According to McKittrick it was first suggested that the Hargadine-Mc- Kittrick company give a note for the loan, but this was not done. Instead. the four McKittricks received second preferred stock of the company and oth- er collateral which, T. H. McKittrick told the Court, ‘“‘were worthless then and are worthless now.’’ When the $300,000 was turned over to the syndicate the McKittricks received a receipt for it, the witness said. McKittrick said that the dissatisfied stockholders of the company were re- sponsible for the McKittricks giving up their money on such easy terms. “A most outrageous contract,’’ he ex- claimed. This comment did not please Daniel N. Kirby, who is conducting the case for McKittrick and other defendants in the suit. “I move that the last remark be stricken out,’’ said Kirby. Rancolph Laughlin of counsel for the plaintiffs, declared that the statement should stand. Judge Shields ruled against Laughlin. “It is only the opinion of the witness,”’ said the Judge. McKittrick testified that the liquida- ting committee of the Hargadine-McKit- trick company had paid off in full debts of more than $3,000,000 since taking con- trol and had discharged all obligatious of the company except some debts owing the McKittricks and several minor bills He said he was opposed to a receiver- ship because in, no instance he knew of in 20 years were creditors of a wholesale dry goods firm which went into the hands of a receiver paid 100 cents on the dollar. McKittrick has been on the stand two days, and his cross-examination has not yet started. Judge Shields yesterday afternoon adjourned court until: Wednes- day. He Saw Mrs. Suratt Executed.

One package WILL OF WOMAN, WhO KEPT DEAD PARROTS, IN COURT One Live Bird, She Said, Was a Republican —— Shouted for Taft. Trial of the suit to breeck the will of Mrs. Mary A. Wilson, who died Feb. 20, 1915, leaving the bulk of her estate, valued at $25,000, to the Euclid Avenue Baptist Church, was begun before « jury in Judge Kinsey's division of the Circuit Court this morning. The suit was instituted by seven rela- tives who were not provided for in any way. They allege Mrs. Wilson was of unsound wind when the will was drawn on March 10, 1911. She was 72 years old. Charles E. Vickers of Kirkwood, hus- band of a niece of Mrs. Wilson, with whom she lived at one time, testified thal her actions and beliefs caused him to conclude she was not mentally sound. Fond of Parrots, “Mrs. Wilson was fond of parrots,”’ he said, “and she was never without one. When one died she obtained anoth- er, but preserved the carcass of the dead one, “She had one parrot which, although I never heard it speak, she declared was exceptionally brilliant. She dis- liked Democrats and insisted the parrot shared this dislike. He proved it by frequently shouting, ‘Hurrah for Taft!’ she said. I never heard it hurrah for anything.”’ Vickers said Mrs. Wilson bought him a cow in the month of October whick gave no milk and cost him more than it was worth to keep. She told his frienda she had “supplied him with a dairy,’” he said. Argued on Politics. Vickers on cross-examination was asked if he and Mrs. Wilson ever had any disagreement. He answered that polities was the only subject they dis- agreed about... She was a Republican and he was ‘a fighting Democrat,” he said. He also testified he believed that Mrs. Wilson was not rational from 1904. did not appear interested in conversa- tion, he declared. The deposition of the Rev. J. Fred- erick Rake, who resigned as pastor of the Euclid Baptist Church and went to Evansville, Ind., a week ago, is on file in the case as evidence for the defense. The pastor deposed that he regarded Mrs. Wilson as of rational mind at the time she made her will. He said she was liberal in her contributions to the church. The deposition of Mrs. Nellie Scott Davis of 4906 Page boulevard, who also removed from the city, sets forth that Mrs. Wilson traded at a drug store con- ducted by the deponent at Euclid av- enue and Page boulevard, and botrght intelligently. Members of Vickers’ family are re- membered in the will with sums amount- ing to about $200. The beneficiaries under the will, oth- er than the church, are the Rev. Sam- uel E. Ewing, former pastor of the church, who was bequeathed 31000: the Missouri Baptist Orphans’ Home, $590; the Missouri Baptist Ministers’ Aid So- ciety, $2000, and the St. Louis Baptist Missionary Board, $300. The plaintiffs in the suit are Fanny Barth, John and James W. Clark, Clinton E. Charles R. and George B. Taylor and Louis R. Jen- nings.

Jecoff, the Bulgar Com- mander in Chief.” The Germans near Lihons, to the south of the Somme River, have met with rc- pulse at the hands of the French in an intended atiack extending over abour 41-3 miles. The offensive movement was preceded by a heavy bombardment an1 clouds of asphyxiating gases. ‘“‘Vhen the German infantry endeavored to come out of their trenches for the attack, however, the barrier fire and the fire of the French riflemen stopped them everywhere, according to Paris. The Germans in Artois were prevented from occupying the crater of a mine by a strong counter offensive of the French. In Champagne, the forest of the Ar- gonne and in the entire region of Ver- dun, there has been much artillery activity, in which Paris claims that con- siderable execution was accomplished by the Franch gunners. The Germans report additional repulses of British grenade attacks against captured ‘posi- tions along the Yser Canal and also the putting down of an entente ailied of- fensive along the Lens-Arras road, Numerous fights in the air between German and French aviators have taken place. Paris reports that several of the German machines were brought down by the fire of the French airmen, Aeroplane raids have been carried out by French and British aeroplane squad- rons, notably on the German aviation field at Habsheim, at Multhausen and on a munitions factory at Pagny-Sur-Mo- selle.

PINSK SWAMPS Correspondent Says Germans Have Made Pripet Section Nigh Impregnable With Barb Wires and Rapid Fire Weapons. PINSK, Russia, Feb. 17, by Courier to Berlin, Feb. 21, via London Feb. 22.-- The mildest winter of decades along the present German lines in the East has been an important factor in ren- dering futile, in this section at least, all Russian efforts to regain their lost ter- ritory. An Associated Press correspond- ent, the first to have the opportunity to view the ‘“‘machine gun front” in and about the Pripet Swamps sincé the Teu- tons took up their positions in Sep- tember and October, has just returned from a trip along several miles of the swampy fighting line. Every mile of this front fairly bris- tles with. machine guns, which cover every inch of terrain. Although the correspondent had no means of ascer- taining how many men defend the Pinsk sector, the multitude of rapid firing guns gives the impression that even a small number of men should be able to hold the line indefinitely. In addition to the guns, millions of feet of barbed wire entanglements, transform- ing each village and house into a yer- itable fortress, render the German po- sitions from a layman standpoint im- pregnable—which the military authori- ties claim they are. Probably nowhere on any front is the term “stationary warfare’’ more ap- plicable than in the Pinsk district. where lonely outposts in blockhouses erected on tiny islands in the swamp lands and roving patrols give the only real touch of fighting. Swamps Protect South. The German lines at Pinsk protrude furtherest east of any along the whole front from the Baltic to Galicia. They project in a semi-circle form. The greatest danger to™%he forces at Pinsk, therefore, is a flanking movement from the north—the swamps afford protec- tion from the south.. In consequence the northern lines have been made ex- tremely strong. Not only is every yard of this front fenced in with entangle- ments 100 to 120 feet wide, but there sare supporting points at very short inter- vals which are veritable fortresses in themselves. They are surrounded by star-shaped barricades of wire. Each of these supporting points is subdivided into barricaded sections with bombproof shelters and with machine guns to fire along both sides of each point of the stars. As a final precau tion each supporting point is surround- ed by a single wire, stretched knee higa, on which hang 10 pairs of empty bottles which clink the alarm the moment the wire is touched by any pérsons who ap- proach. _A novel feature of the German de- fense in this section is that the troops are composed almost entirely of crack cavalry regiments, numbering high nec- bies among their officers. A short time ago they would have scoffed at the idea of being dismounted, but now they live cheerfully in part or wholly under- ground, riding their horses only for sport in improvised hippodromes. The lot of the troops on this northern flank of the front, however, is happier than that of those east and south of Pinsk, for they have been able to en- ench themselves in the dunes. Paralleling the Strumen River, south of the city, runs a narrow dike built by the Russians, either to hold back the flood waters’ or to serve as the bel for a projected railroad. This dike is but a few feet above the fast-running river on one side and the vast swamp on the other and has been converted into a series of tiny forts, with machine guns commanding evory Russian posi- tion in the wide angle. ‘trenches in Sidewalks. The water front line of Pinsk itself, past which the River Pine flows, more than any other creates the impression of being a “machine-gun front ”’ Trenches have bee:: dug where the un- paved sidewslks used. to be, There ‘8s scarcely a house that has not been forti- fied with sandbags and earth. Near the city, out in the swamp, lies a small island, which is the nearest point to the Russians. The Germans have built a staging to the island an: have fortified the island itself. On it they have installed troops commanded by a ruler of a German state, who lives unostentatiously in a dilapidated villa. The whole German side of the swamp to a depth from half a mile to a mile,% to a cross-cross with staging running to every hummock of solid land large enough to hold a blockhouse, machine guns and men. Possibly on account of the combina- tion of dampness, the unfrozen condi- tion of the swamp and the extraordi- nary German defenses, or possibly Dbe- cause of tack of adequate artillery, the Russians have made only a few half- hearted efforts to push back the Ger- mans from Pinsk. They limit them- selves to patrol scouting. Occasionally shells are fired, but they invariably fall short, striking in the swamp, The slightly elevated position of Pinsk gives the Germans a dual. advantage. They are able to observe all Russian movements, while it is probable that with the high water of the spring, the Russians in the lower position will be : flooded. aia ‘ . rms oli od Pa OF 4 oS a = itt Oe Is a & by = a ‘ + ; ae . ” a . ~ > ia , gu - “ gg es . & hr aee ; Pos : ot al 4) wy 4 “Signe Gartake tebe | FLORENCE REED and] : Maicolm Reed in ~ © THE YELLOW TICKET™ “ia WITH THE PLAYERS.

The pawn in this strange marital game Cla4 is Yvonne. a girl 1€ years ld. in black walking suit, 1 mite cf a turban topping her golden hair, she toyed with her fox neckpiece and cuddled close to her foster mother as the Prince told his story. Now and then her violet-blue eyes snapped and she tapped the floor with her high-heeled boots. When the Prince, who is 36, stepped to the witness chair he said he would speak in either Russian or French. He vsed French throifgh an interpreter. Led by his counsel, John C. Oldmixon, ne told of his marriage in June, 1914, and “When I objected to the Princess go- ing to the Grand Prix race in Paris she ruid she hadn’t married me to stay at nome,” testified the Prince. “I told her I couldn’t stand the ex- cessive heat of the racetrack and she replied that with her money ghe could find a. husband who would obey her. I soon found that the bringing up of this woman was not suitable for one of my station.”’ ¥vonne was introduced by the Prince #8 an assertive, petulant and wholly de- lightful girl, who, once when she be. came angry, seized a carving knife threateningly. When he complajned he was told that it was he who had spoiled Yvonne. Wife Gets Anonymous Letter. The first trouble arose in Paris, when anonymous letters warned the Princess that Yvonne and the Prince were in love with each other. “What did she say to you about this?” inquired the lawyer. “That if I were in love with the girl she would be perfectly satisfied to di- vorce me so that I could have her «and be happy,” replied the witness. “She said we were making a scandal out of it.” In the latter part of 1914 the trio came to New York and took a suite at the Hotel McAlpin. They had not been here long, the witness said, before the Prin- o asked him to join a religious sect which she was interested. She. told him the members were interesting rer- sons and “‘would present themselves in very live costumes, mostly nude.’’ He laughed at the idea and his wife hbe- came enraged. : The witness became very intense when the subject of the baby was broacned. If such a baby exists it will inherit a share of the Crocker millions, and should that child die the Father would inherit the share. “Where Was your aleauter born ?’’ asked Mr. Oldmixon. “In a hospital,” answered the Prince. “My wife went there April 12, 1915, and a day or so later I received a telegram which said, ‘Sunday, 4 o’clock, morn- ing...A daughter.’ I went there and found my wife in bed. She said the baby was in another room with its nurse; that she was very weak, meaning herself, but would be out in a few days. She said she ‘had taken three treat- ments of twilight sleep’ and feared it might injure the child. A few days later she returned to the hotel without the baby.”’ “What did she say in explanation?” Says He Was Unhappy. “That she was afraid her daughter, Gladys, would see it—she was to visit us in a few days—and make a scandal out of it. I felt very unhappy.’”’ : Later, the Prince said, he saw Ahe wife and after that they took the little one out for an airing several times. The he said, insisted the infant fresembled the Prince, and he was sure she was a perfect likeness of her moth- er. e “Do you know the name of the baby?” inquired the Prince's attorney. “She said she would name it Vera,” the witness answered. But I don’t know “Do you, know where the baby is Low?" “I haven’t the’ slightest idea. That's All this time there had been trouble; ver Yvonne, and a series of quarrels @ulminated early in June, when, the Prince said, Mme.

Madame went to the Hotel Gotham and I saw her there. I asked her to come back. I cried. But she said it would be much better if I married Yvonne. She said Yvonne and I ought to go into the country and that during that time Madame and I could arrange for a djvorce. After that I was tO marry Yvonne. “She said that if I did not do this she feared Yvonne might kill herself, and she thought it her duty to save her daughter’s life Every time she talked of my marrying her ward I told her it wasn't respectable and I would return to Russia rather than do it,” “Tell the Court -what happened» just before Mme. Miskinoff left the hotel, suggested Mr. Oldmixon. Girl Had Revolver. “Well,” responded the witness, ‘“‘one day I went to Yvonne’s room and she had a revolver in her hand and she tried to kill herself. I knocked the re- volver from her hand. The next morn- ing Madame asked me to marry the child as a favor to her to save her life.”’ Lawyer Lawrence opened his cross- examination by devling into the past of the Prince. He inquired particularly whether he wa: a bona fide Prince, as he asserts, or a pretender as charged by the Russian authorities, The witness swore he was a real Prince, and said fi. father was a Prince before him. He \‘a3s educated in Moscow, studied law and went to Paris nine months before he married Mrs. Gouraud. At his first meeting with her he was introduced to Yvonne, whom the Madame said she hai found in London years before and adopted. He thought Mrs. Gouraud loved him the first time she saw him. He loved her and still loved her, he said. Yvonne he said, he loves as a daughter of his wife—‘‘as a father would love her.’’ “Didn’t madame speak to you -about your attentions to Yvonne?” “She always spoke about it as though tho idea were fixed in her head.’’ Forgets Hospital Name. The Prince couldn’t remember the name of the sanitarium to which his wife went, because he had been taken there by the’ maid, but he was quite certain about his visit and insisted he had called only once. He never heard the names o* madame’s physician and nurse. The attorney wanted to know if the Prince had calied Yvonne any “pet names.” It was long before he under- stood the meaning of the term. Then the said he had used such names, but couldn’t translate them. A note to tho girl showed that he had addressed her as “My little bit boutZou.’’ The latter word meant something like ‘“sweet- heart,”’ he said. “Now, as a fact, didn't you make love to Yvonne?” asked the lawyer. “Well, yes,’ answered the witness, after considerable thought. “I had to do ——_ To End Catarrhal Deafness: and Head ce Noises if you have Catarrhal Deafness or -fViead noises go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength) and add to it % pint of hot water and 4 ounces of granu- lated sugar.

They saw much of each other. He considered she had becn: abandoned and that ft was his duty to look after her. He asserted it was with Mr. Lawrence’s consent that this boarding house was sel@cted. The Prince returned eo the city Oct. 1 and went to the Holland House, where he was visited “about five times a week’’ by Yvonne. He told her she ought to go to Gotham and. see her mother, but’she replied that “it was very lonesome” and she “didn’t want x a pleasant occupa- “It was In Love With White. “All this time were you in love with your wife?’’ the Prince was asked. “Certainly,” was the prompt repiy. “T always loved her. Why not? Thera is love and love and it depends wha: degree of love you mean.”’ “Was your love for Yvonne warm or cold?’’ asked Mr. Lawrence. “Oh, just medium,” yawned the wit- ness. A note from the Prince to the girl was introduced, in which he wrote: “I kiss you a million times, my darling little kizi-kizi.”” This he said was the last note before they decided to go ‘to Cuba anc get married. His feeling for the girl had grown warmer and that for his wife a bit cooler. He did not know how much of a dot the bride was to get from her foster-mother, but was willing t» take whatever she offered, as he had no money of his own. But two days later Yvonne went back to Mme. Miski- noff. “And at this time did marry Yvonne?’’ ‘Tt is not the custom in Russia, where I come from, to marry a woman and then turn around and marry hor daughter.’’ ‘How did you expect to marry her then when you already had a wife?’ “Tt was not I who suggested it. It was Mme. Gouraud and Mr. Lawrence,” referring to his wife and his inquisitar. In explaining tlis statement under re- direct examination the Prince said that Lawrence, Mme. Miskinoff and himself had held a conference and he had been told that a divorce could be obtained and, following this, he could marry -Yvonne. Says Divorce Was Suggested. “Did she suggest that she divorces you?” asked Mr. Oldmixon. ‘*Yes,”"” answered the Prince. “She said I couldn’t be married to two wom- en at the same time.”’ “Ana was it she who suggested you go to Edgemere and prepare, yourself by becoming engaged to her foster gaugh- ter?’ “Yes, she planned it.” Several letters that Mme. Miskinoff, it is said, wrote to her husband wh:n he and Yvonne were in Edgemere were marked for identification, but they were not read. The Prince left the stand that Miss Gertrude Miller, bookkeeper at Miss Alston’s sanitarium, might testify. Miss Miller said her records showed Mrs. Jackson’ Gouraud (Mme. Miskinoff) had entered the hospital at 5:50 p. m. April 10, 1915, two days before the date given by the Prince, and left April 13. Her physician was Dr. George Foster, and her nurse a Miss Dever. The record dic not show what Mrs. Gouraud’s ailment was or whether she had borne a child. Her bill was $30.01. The Prince will résume his testimony you wish to " Wednesday: | She resigned last Saturday.”’ Asked to whom the money was turned over by Mrs. Rowe, Alderman Rodriguez said: ‘“‘According to the _ story, the jmoney was to go for the support of a needy relative of Mayor Thompson, a widow, I am told. “Il saw the payment Rowe on June 28 last year,’ the Aldermai). “Mrs. Baton attempted to make the payments by check, but Mrs. Rowe re- fused to uccept .them. After this re- fusal Mrs. Eaton drew a ~personal check, took it to the bank and cashel it and put the money in a marked enve- lope.

She needed the position, he said, but wanted wit- nesses to the fact that she did not pay tribute willingly.

Donaldson, formerly of 5700 Bartmer avenue, and known as the “praying promoter,” who recently served penitentiary terms in Mis- souri and Illinois for a $53,000 mining stock swindle, has returned to St. Louis, according to Chicago dispatches, because of illness brouzht on by his striking % snag in his efforts in Chicago to pre- mote the Woman’s Trust Co. of Amer- ica, a $1,500,000 stock corporation, Or caeieas under the laws of Arizona. Donaldson, after leaving the Chester penitentiary, obtained a charter for the trust company, and interested in it 4 number of women who are leaders in the suffrage movement. Their interest declined when they learned of Donald- son’s past financial! performances, and the company’s affairs have been placed in the hands of O. ¢. Pixley. Donaldson formerly was a clergymal in Carthage and Monett. Later he be- came a stock broker in St. Louls. His trial here, in 1911, brought out that Mra.

Sta ‘ HOW SEGREGATION LAW IN BALTIMORE OPERATESAFTER BEING ANNULLED 3 TIMES Fourth Measure Is Before the Courts in Test Case and Opponents Carry It to Highest Tribunal. Sy a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. BALTIMORE, Feb. 22.—Baltimore be- lieves it has solved the race segregation problem, but the city is wonderifi¢ whether its fourth and latest sesrega- tion ordinance will stick. Three other ordinances have been annulled, either by the courts or by the City Couneil, and the fourth is under fire. The op- ponents of segregation say they will carry their case to the United States Supreme Court, if necessary; and al- ready, the existinfi ordinance is being tried for its lifé in the State Court of Appeals. Nevertheless, the theory of segrega- tion Will work, provided its practical ex- pression will stand the legal test, ac- cording to the views of nearly every business and professional man in the city. It is economically and socially sound—Jjn Baltimore. Whether such a system will work elsewhere Baitimore does not pretend to say. The ¢olored population of Baltimore has always been under white domina- tioh. A® a race, the negro of Baltimore has been made to learn the lesson of submission better, perhaps, than in any city north of Richmond, Va.

It i8 nearly impossible, howéver, to ) discuss the Baitimoré ordinance with- out first presenting the history of the conditions whith le@ up to its adoption ahd by tfaciiié® events from the time the first draft of the law was adopted. Briefly, thé Baltimore situation was like this: The trend of the city’s developmen: Was to the north and west. Roughly speaking, North avenue, which traverses to west, formed the approximate boun- dary of the outlying business section, while north of this thoroughfare and to the northwest lay the seetion lergely inhabited by the well-to-do persone, To the east arid south lay the homies of the laboring Classes ard thé néeroes. Tae negro portion of Baltimore's pop- tilation, like the white portion, possessca that same spirit of emulation, though the aribitious negro element, for the time béing, was ccntent to oecupy, in its apparent €néeroachments, those por- tions of the middle-northern sections oc- cupied by the middle-class whites. High Rents a Factor. The great portior of the middle-class whites found an invasion of the better néighborhouds impossible, chiefiy be- cause of higher rents and increased liy- ing@ expenses. So the middle-class whites, for the mosi part, settled them- selvés Détween the upper-class neighbor- hoods to the north and west on the one hand, and the downtown sectiou on the other, therely marking out a “quarter’ as it were, which they considered their own. The old question of race prejudice, however, éntéred at this point, for the better classes of negroes were at least on af economic jar with the middie. class Whites and were thereby enabled to invade that section held sacred tu family. And by reason of that race prejudice, the entrance of mérely one negro famiiy on a White block was quite sufficient, in néarly all cases, to occasion a sid- Gén and violent reduction in réalty pricés in the immédiaté area affected, not to mention the moral effect upon rmioré distant neighborhoods which wer» consequently threacéned. Here the unsé¢fupillous real estate man be¢ameé active and conceived the idea of capitalizing this race hatred fos his private benefit. And there are many pérsons in Baltimore today who declare that the speculative real estate agent Was 48 much responsible for segrega- tion as the négro himeelf. The speculator’s plan was to move a }hegro family into a block in the good white néighborhoads uptown. The hews would spread quickly that thé négro family had come to stay and intended to purchare the housé it oc. Supied. Panic in realty values in that neighborhood usually followed. If th. white 6wnera wer not sufficiently quick to see the ruination that stared them in the face, a call from the realty agent tisually miadé it suite clear to ther. Thé next step was to purchase the houses in the affected block at low ‘prices. This was usually accomplished without serious difficulty ana quit: often on a rather large scale. Once the task Of purchasirg all available prop erty Was completes !, the ro family; would receive notice t6 remove, the block would again “g@6 White’ and the chagrinned owner# who had sold their property at low rtices would s#ée the self-same property put up for sale and vought for nearly its normal value frum the realty man. Invaded by roéd, Naturally, this sort of ‘thing could not g0 on forever, but thé réalty agént was not the Sols objéction, in many cases. Very often a neerea family would move into a white street in a go0d néighbor- hood, purchage a house and settle down for lifé. The day that housé was sid to the negro famiy was the day whicli settled the fate of that block for white ccéupancy. Baltimore has its views on quéstions of this kind and cannet easiiy be converted to Siker beliefs. The mere threat, however, of nero irvasion of white neighborhoods ‘was erough to ¢tit down the purchasées— of small-salaried men who wished to cwn their homes. They did not caré tw | begin buying a home at §00 which would be worth perhaps only $2300 whan their money Was fully paid. 80 the game Weft 6n antl Baltimore talked pnore and more cf rgce segregation. : thé average Salaried white man and his. thé greater portion of the city from east usvally through Lvilding apsodations— | Late in 1910 Sainuel L.

Continued From Page Four, months of deliberation the Court of Appeals handed down a decision which nullified the West ordinance of May 2%, 1911, chiefly because the framers of the iaw had prohibited a negro from buying property in a white neighborhood. Fault verbiage was another reason. Then Baltimore drafted a new segre- zation bl, which was by the ity Council in September, 1914, in the form of two measures, the first one embodying the terms of segregation law possibilities as laid down by the Court ct Appeals and the seccnd measure aiming at certain phases of the idea cov- ered in the first ordinance.

Jackson is said to have been brought into Baltimore for the purpose of ir- volving the Federal law and enabling the National Association for the Ad- vancement of Colored People—a negro organization—to carry the Jackson case into the Supreme Court of the United States. It is said that the National Associa- tion for the Advancement of Colored People is, so far as Baltimore is con- cerned, little more than Harry 8. Cum- mings, a bright negro member of the City Council. And perhaps it is largely to Baltimore's credit that many perscus sn a position to know declare positively that Cummings is the most able man In the whole Council. He seconded Roosevelt’s nomination at the Chicago convention in 1900. Baltimore is perhaps one of the most “local” cities in the United States, and 'erdinarily it concerns itself little wii what other cities of the country are doing, even along lines paralled with Baltimore endeavor. But the city, in this case, has not been insensible to the efforts of other cities like Louis- ville to make an ordinance of this kind hold in the courts. Nor is Baltimore ignorant of the fact that St. Louis has taken up the segre- gation problem. In fact Baltimore is ‘Ttwentieth century particularly eager to learn what St. Louis will do with the segregation prom- lem. It was intimated in many quarters fa- vorable to the ordinance that many real estate men in town were secretly opposed to the law. A. D. McComas, sécretary of the Real Estate Board of Trade, said: “There is absolutely no doubt that the better class of real estate men in Bal- timore are heartily in accord with the principles laid down in the ordinance. The realty men who are fighting it and who fought it in the past are the men who were simply using the tendency of the negroes to swarm into a white neighborhood as a means of cleaning up on small residential property. ‘“‘Among the really responsible real es- tate class, there is an entirely different sentiment. We have found that segre- gation stimulates the sale of property to salaried men in the northern and north- western sections and we also realize that the segregation of both races will stimu- late building in two directions—one class of residence for whites and another for the blacks. The advantages of segrega- tion are too pronounced fer a thorough- going real estate man in this town to criticize the law as a failure.”’ Harry S. Cummings, the negro Coun- cilman, was seen. Cummings opposes the ordinance very strongly and had his reasons which he set forth. He said: “‘The law itself is funda- mentally all wrong. Its tendency is to make the negro legally inferior to the white man and there is nw provision in legal practice for such views. It permits a negro to buy a house in a white neighborhood, but de- nies him the right to live in that house. Here is where the real hardship and monetary loss results from the operation of the ordinance. | “A negro, we'll «ay, buys a house in a section from which he is barred as % resident. The law says he can buy there but that he mustn't live there, He may have rlaced into that house the savings of yeurs and yet he is forced, if he cannot rent to white tenants, (tv allow the house to stand idle, to pay taxes upon it and additionally pay fo: other quarters for himself and family.’ Cummings admitted that the presen: figat in the, Marylend Court of Appeals was a test of the newest ordinance and. that he and his suegro associates wer? planning to carry the court fight t» Washington, if necessary. “And, mind you,’”’ he concluded, “this Your Best Chance This Season to Buy a Stylish Overcoat at Small Cost —Up to $25 Values Now $10.50 A final reduction has been made on the small lot of Men’s Overcoats left from our sale of last week.

You can easily imagine how anyone Opposed to the measure would not be inclined to minimize the alleged importance of such occurrences. But perhaps you can judge for yoursei* best on that matter when I tell you that negroes are still buying property in white neighborhoods and whites are still buying property in negro neigh- borhoods, though both classes of own- ers know they cannot occupy their prop- erty. That seems'‘to be a fair earnest of the value of such statements. “I'll give you another exampte of how Baltimore is receiving segregation: Wi)- liam F. Broening, the District Attor- ney, is a Republican. I am a ‘Demo- crat and the city administration is largely Democratic; but Broening is pulling right along with us in this mat- ter of upholding segregation. He is fighting for the ordinance and every man in Baltimore with the real inter- ests of the city at heart is fighting for it also. Politics Is Eliminated. “No one should get the idea that Segregation in Baltimore has anything to do with politics. The old story about Republican support of the negro and Democratic opposition to the race desn’t go here in Baltimore in connection with segregation. Democrats and Republic- ans are for themiselves and their town first and for their parties afterward And they couldn't fight segregation and further their own and their town's In- terest at the same time.’’ ‘There is another advantage of segre- gation which hasn’t been dwelt upon with sufficient emphasis.

The new policy of the Park and Shen- andoah Theaters of calling in visiting actors of note to play with the regular stock dramatic company, was inaugurat- ed last night at the Park, when Flor- ence Reed appeared in: “The Yellow Ticket” in the role of Marya Varenka. Malcolm Williams, who is Miss Reed's husband, played Baron Stepan Andrey, head of the secret police, in Micnael Morton’s stirring melodrama of Rus- sian life. Both Miss Reed and Mr. Williams ap- peared to advantage. Miss Reed gave a splendid performance as the young Jewess, the role which she created in New York several seasons ago. She fully met the requirements of the in- tensely dramatic scenes, and in the few lighter moments of the play she was charming. Williams, who some 20 years ago was leading man at the old Pope’s Theater here—when Jessaline Rodgers was lead- ing woman, Gus Weinburg, comedian and Arthur Mackley, now the Sheriff in many a wild Western movie, the villain —was excellent as the suave, disagreea- ble Baron. A large crowd welcomed the two players and the change in the the- ater’s plan. Tie regular members of the stock company who played in support of the visitors, gave good account of them- selves. Mitchell Harris played the American newspaper man, Vessie Far- rell was a buxom Margery Seaton, Stan- ley James appeared as John Seaton and Matt Hanley and Henry Hull were ex- cellent in smaller roles, as was William MacCauley as Count Nikolai Rostov.

While her tones may not be so flaw- lessly crystalline as those of Mme. Nellie Melba in her prime, she possesses notes of ethereal softness and delicacy in the highest range, with something of the flute’s exquisite clearness and daintiness. Her trill is bird-like in its perfect ease and evenness; and no score can make demands of agility which her voice is unable to meet. Vocal students will realize the feats represented by her singing with reso- nance the D-flat above high C in the sextet, and the E-flat above high C in the mad scene. The latter tone was easy for her, for she can sing still a full tone higher, to F natural. As she can also sing the B-flat below the staff, this gives her the phenomenal range of two octaves and a fifth—this being the exact range with which Melba, in her youth, amazed the world. In addition to her accomplished singing, Mme. Vaccari acted the role with intelligence and re- straint. Sextette Well Done. As her worthy colleagues in the cast, Angelo Antola sang the part of Henry Ashton and Giuseppe Agostini that of Edgar of Ravenswood. Natale Cervi was Raymond, the chaplain: Luciano Rossini was Lord Arthur. Bucklaw, and #lice Homer was Lucia’s attendant. These principals sang the sextette ex- cellently, and it was encored. lLucia’s inad scene suffered a bit through the lifeless playing of the flute obligat by one of the orchestra. The harp in- termezzo preceding the second act, “hich has not been heard for years at a St. Louis performance of “Lucia, ’ was enjoyably performed by D. A. As- trella. For this afternoon there is a matinee of “Aida,” with Stella de Mette in the pig part of Amneris, Mary Kaestner as Aida, Millo Picco as Amonasro, Agos- tini as Radames, Pietro di Biasi as Ramfis and Natale Cervi as King of Egypt. “La Giaconda” Tonight. Tonight's offering is Ponchielli’s ‘‘La Gioconda,” which has not been sung here for several years. Ponchielll is known in America by this one opera, although another, “I Promessi Sposi,"’ has some popularity in Italy. He is chiefly notable as the teacher of Mas- cagni, Leoncavallo and Puccini, and was thus in a sort the father of modern Italian opera. ‘“‘La Gioconda” has an excellent sing: ing and acting role for mezzo-soprano in La Cieca, an old blind woman, who will be portrayed by Stella de Mette In Enzo there is a part of some distinc tion for tenor, which will be taken by Manuel Salazar, the young Costa Rican who made a sensational success Sat- urday night in the role of Manrico. Others in the cast are Alice Eversman. American soprano, who will sing the title role; Carolina Zawner, Modesti, Di Biasi, Cervi and Rossini. Preparations have been made for giv- ing the “Dance of the Hours’ ballet at the ball scene of the opera, the mu sic for which is a familiar concert num- ber of the Symphony Orchestra. Anna Held, at Columbia, Sings Coaxing Ballads of Yester-Year. Anna Held, billed as this week’s head- liner at the Columbia, sings several of her old song hits insthe same inimitable style, but with considerably more effort than in-the days when she was the bright particular star of musical com- edy. f Eddie Leonard and his minstrel trio have their names in much smaller print than the once tantalizing Anna, but, as it turns out, they are the real hit of the show. Eddie’s graceful and agile dancing, and the banjo and piano play- ing of his assistants, caused the audi- ence at yesterday’s opening perform- ance literally to clamor for more. Marie Nordstrom (Mrs. Henry E. Dix- ey), tells stories and sings. There are two good playlets, in which Dorothy Regel and Flannagan and Edwards are the principal funmakers.

A SURE WAY TO END DANDRUFF There is one sure way that has nev- er failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you de- stroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid’ arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will complete- ly dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find all itching and dig- ging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and féel a hundred times better.—ADV. _ = ed The Post-Dispatch is the only evening news- Just Received by Express for Tomorrow’s Selling One Hundred We Refund Railroad Fares “ies eee 509 W. ington Av.

Addresses by Mayor Kiel and four other speakers aroused much enthusi- asm among about 300 men and women present at a meeting in Central High ,j School last evening held by citizens opposing the negro segregation ordi- nance. About two-thirds of the audience was made up of negroes. Mayor Kiel, as chairman, said that he sincerely hoped the segregation ordinance would fail of passage as he believed the ques- tion of its constitucionality would linger in the courts for years during which time bad feeling would develop between the races in St. Louis. Frederick N. Judson asserted segre- gation is advocated from a so-called radical prejudice which it is claimed impairs real estate values. “It is thero- “to adopt the policy of restricting one-tenth of our population to certain prescribed dis- tricts, so as it is said they cannot in- to our white citizens. “Are we prepared in Missouri as a remedy ‘Yor the existing racial pre- judices which interferes with the real estate, to go back to the precedents of the middle ages, and establish het- toes for a part «f our population? In this connection it ehould be remembere:!) that Missouri was the first state fo abolish slavery !'y its own State enact- ment. This was done some years be- fore the adoption of the Thirteenth Amendment by the Government of the nation. “These proposed ordinances are ob- jectionable, because even if they could be lawfully enacted, they would be in- effective. They admittedly could not reach the cases of existing occupancy of real estate. They would only intensify and perpetuate the feeling of hostility of.a class comprising one-tenth of our population and expose us to the charge of resorting to a medieval system which would discredit our history. Privileges of Negroes. “The colored population of St. Louis are entitled to the privileges and immu- rities of citizenship, and they cannot be deprived of the inalienable rights of citizenship, including the right to own, acquire and dispose of property, which, the Supreme Court of Georgia’said was not conferred by the Constitution, but exists of natural right. “In view of the decisions of State courts of Southern States, presumably made up of Southern men, can there be would be the ruling of the Federal courts upon this attempted segregation and denial of the rights of property to American citizens? William Marion Reedy said that he is a Democrat and that the one reason as appeared as a speaker is that he wished to stand up and be counted for what he believed to be the right regardless of party. Reedy said his ancestors for 4% years had been fighting similar segre- gation and that these attacks upon his race had continued until recent years, when the proscription of Irish-Catholics was wiped out by an immense majority of the people of this country. Reedy said that if some “‘smart ne- groes’ buy property in residence “‘is- tricts in order to hold up other resi- dents for a high price, it is only be- cause some much worse white man gives them the opportunity He said he was not arguing for social equality of the races, as it was the right of every man to choose his associates. Nagel Explains Opposition. Former Secretary of Commerce ard Labor Nagel said that while born :n the South, he lived in a section where slavery was not tolerated. He described the shock which came to him when he first saw a negro boy with whom he had been playing, whipped brutally, and he said: “At that sight I swore to oppose such a kind of an argument all the remain- dcr of my life, and that’s why I am here present voting No, against an argument to place upon the negro a more humiliating condition than that of actual slavery. . “But I will not lie to you. In no state has the negro as yet real equality in political or industrial life. I say noth- ing of social life, as neither race wishes it. I say to the negro that I do not know when you will achieve full polit- ical and industrial equality. I must ask you to wait, but I will not raise my hand to delay one hour the arrival of your day of full equality.” The speaker said that the notoriety St. Louis is securing because of the pro- posed segregation is the most expensive evil that has come to the city and that the damage being done was much great- er than citizens realize. Judge Leo Rassieur said that as a young man he had always wondered how slavery could exist in defiance of the declaration of independence. Later, he said, he could not understand how the negro was being deprived of polit- ical rights in defiance of the Constitu- tion. He said this segregation proposal shows that citizens who believe in both documents must still be upon the alert to prevent their nullification by such action as the proposed segregation ordi- nance. Committee Gets Many Letters pos- img Segregation. op The Citizens’ Anti-Segregation Com- mittee has received a number of com- munications expressing opposition to the segregation plan. Bishop Tuttle, in a letter to the com- mittee, says he thinks the proposed or- dinance would violate the personal lib- erty rights of American citizenship and engender resentment and bitterness of feeling. It is not, he thinks, calculated to help a people who are honestly striv- ing to uplift their standard and improve themselves. Mayor Kiel notifies the committee that he is ready at any time to speak pub. licly in opposition to the segregation movement.

The Swiss are non-militaristic and ‘savuted to peace. Their institutions are thoroughly demo- cratic. They regard military training and service as the duty every citizen owes to his country. | They have no militarism and no fear of it, be- cause the service is imposed upon themselves by themselves under laws passed by themselves, They are trained and”are subject to call for de- fenae only. Their plan of universal military train- ‘ing makes them ‘safe from militarism because their army is a citizen army. Their country is not detended by paid professional soldiers, but by citizen soldiers who do the work of the country and control the Government by their votes. These articles are interesting and instructive. They are timely because they point the way to the only plan which ‘will meet the needs of the United States in a democratic, efficient way. Sen- j timent in this country is strong for preparedness, but the public mind is” confused as to ways and means. Let us clarify our thought, so that we will know precisely what our needs are, what our duty is and how we can best protect the country. Let us have a definite naval policy and program. || If we wanted the greatest navy in the world, as the President said—unwittingly, we think—we could not get it for many years. If we wanted it we would better refrain from saying so. But we do need a powerful, efficient, thoroughly equipped and manned navy, sufficient for our national needs, including the enforcement of the Monroe Doctrine. Let us have a definite program looking to the building of such\a navy and prompt be- ginning of the work. We do not want a great regular army, but we do want an adequate regular army to serve as the first line of defense and a nucleus for reserves with a sufficient number of trained officers, and ebundant equipment for any emergency. © the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

Goethal’s report on what he calls the “robbery” of the Government by the Joint Land Commissior at Panama is his statement about-the expunging of the facts as set forth in a report of his sub- mitted last summer. In fact, the medium through which Congress is now acquiring information on the subject consists of pages of the old manu- script report showing the pencil marks for sup- pression in a hand other than the General's. "he duty of the commission is to settle for land taken for canal or other Government purposes. The General charges that through conspiracy and “palpable. perjury” claims have been adjusted at startling observations.. In one village, small eiaimants were given $15,270 for land worth only | $769, which must be regarded as an instance of ex- 4reme moderation. He charges that for lands worth not more than $1,000,000 a total of $18,- 000,000 has been awarded. Attorneys are said to get half of the awards. ‘The elimination of all except the pettiest of graft in the actual construction of the canal is a source of national pride. That the payment of these extravagant awards should be refused is ef course plain. But Why was an attempt made to conceal the facts from Congress until it might be too late to stop erent!

George Washington, whose birthday we honor today, declared that “the adoption of a proper peace establishment” was “essential to the well- being or even the existence of the United States as an independent Power.” To this end he begged people to forget local prejudices and policies, to make concessions need- ful to general well-being and to sacrifice individ- ual advantages to the interest of the community. Nobody better knew the importance of ° “pre- paredness.” “The peace and safety of our coun- try depend, under God, solely on the success of our arms,” was his comment on the Declaration of Independence. Yet his little army with which he achieved the most notable. result in history rom the point of view of man’ 8 political freedom, and “the most brilliant achievements in military annals,” represented a sad want of “prepared- ness” in size and strength. As against British forces of 24,000, the army with which Washington won the crowning victory of independence hardly numbered 20,000 men of whom it is said 6000 or 7000 were sick or on furlough: and disasters and reverses preceded the ultimate triumph—Mon- mouth, Brandywine, Germantown and Valley Forge had to be undergone before Yorktown. In- sfired military genius, and the aid of our gallant giiies, were necessary to American independence. “No people,” said Washington in his Inaugural, “can be found to acknowledge the invisible hand which conducts the affairs of man more than the people of the United States.” | Washington’s last services to his country were those ‘of preparing its military force in the expec- tation of trouble with France—which was hap- nily averted, due in part, nogioubt, to his work of rreparation. Congress in 1798 authorized a pro- visional army, and Washington threw himself with all possible energy into the minutest details of getting it ready to fight, if need be. And be- fore the result of peace was assured he died. “First in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his countrymen.” What stand would Washingto2 take on preparedness at this hour? = = * i i Clear skies and moderate temperature having destroyed the groundhog prediction, where now may we look in Nature for weather? = = i i JUDGE BOND’S SIGNIFICANT WORDS. In the Supreme Court decision denying an in- junction against the segregation election on the ground of the unconstitutionality of the initiative clause, Judge Henry Bond, who wrote the opinion, ineerted.an interesting and significant paragraph, saying that a bill or ordinance can be construed only after it is completed and becomes an act of , legislation, He added: Nor can it be doubted what judgment would be given if it were shown that a law had been enacted in violation of the funda- mental principle upon which the government of the state and nation is founded, or de- struction. of the legal rights of persons or property of any .citizen or class of citizens of the United States. ° If Judge Bond had been writing a decision on the segregation ordinance itself he could not have more clearly defined its nature and its relation to American principles and constitutional rights. His statement is in accord with the Supreme Court docisions against segregation quoted by the Post- Dispatch. It is substantially the original argu- ment used. against segregation by the Post-Dis- patch. | We may see in this aside of the Supreme Court the fate of. the segregation ordinance should it be adopted and submitted to the court test. _, i. i i INTERNAL UNREST IN TURKEY. Berlin is said to have ordered the German com- manders in Turkey to hold back at all hazards the Russian army advancing from Armenia and tu be gathering a Turko-German force. east .of Constantinople. Such a force if assembled may trouble at almost any moment on its rear as well as on its front. Diséontent in Constanti- nople and growing hostility to German control of the country have been described in recént weeks as requiring strong detachments of German troops in the city to hold an uprising in check. If this native opposition to the Prussianization oi Turkey was.a danger before the fall of Erzerum and the imminence of the Russian-peril, what will it be afterward? Baron Astor’s three-cornered hat and crimson robe have cost him more than any other clothing he has ever bought. a = ; i. ail i i Bs ts ” asm , SHIP BUILDING ACTIVITY. The summary of the Government report, show- ing the tremendous increase in: shipbuilding in American yards, in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch, should dispel once fortall any remnant of depression in ‘the minds of those who have been told by inter- ested persons that the American merchant ‘marine had-been ruined by Democratic legislation. ‘ It appears that, in spite of the La Follette Sea- nian’s act and the increase” cost of ‘operation, capital has full faith in the future of the American merchant marine. According to the report: With 230 merehant vessels, with a_ ton- nage of about 1,000,000. tons building, or about to be started, the United States now is being outstripped in construction only by Great Britain and Navigation Bureau officials see in the boom a prospect that the country may recover the position it held before the Civil War, when it was the foremost na- tion in shipbuilding. ‘The amount of tonnage under construction in American yards has doubled within the last year. It has increased nearly 50 per cent since Dec. 1, and yards are so filled “with orders that many have work that “will _keep them steadily’ employed uritil well into 191%.

OHN BRYAN was trembling all over with mingled sensations of hope, excitement and self-depreciation. “I must be honest with you,” he spoke. “I was only succéssful while I had an assistant, a most estimable and capable young woman. That is her pic- ture,” and John pointed to the same rhotograph in a frame over his desk which the veiled lady picked up from among-his scattered papers on the pave- ment on the day previous... ‘I keep it near me,” he added in a low tone, “for she is closer to my heart than any other woman in the world.” There was a flutter of the veil. As the visitor again spoke, the accents of her voice betrayed intense ‘emotion. “Will you draw up a memoranda of the partnership agreement, Mr. Bryan,” she said. He took up his pen and drew a blank sheet of paper towards him in a dazed, mechanical way. “The name, please?” he questioned. She lifted her veil—Alice Worth! ‘For a moment he stared unbelievingly at her. Then the truth overwhelmed him. His face dropped into his arms across the desk before him in sheer joy. Her gentle hand caressed his head. “Blind! Blind!” she murmured. “You do not even guess that my poor, tired heart is famishing for the love of a true, loyal man!” ~ But the scales fell from the eyes of John Bryan as the days went on and business cares were assuaged by sweet companionship. And then, amid hope and success, love flamed forth gloriously, and s0 they were married. (Copyright by W. G. Chapman.) Vincent's Advice “Cutie” writes: “I am 17 and recently met a young man I used to know. Once he liked me very well. What can I do to again win his favor?’ The best thing to do is to ask him to call upon you some evening when one of ycur girl friends is present. Be as nice to him as you were before and his old liking for you may return. Most men like girls who like them. At 17 you are too young to fall in love. Why not try being friendly with the young man and let the next two or three years deter- mine results. “P. D.” writes: “I am 16 years old, of neat appear- ance and not bad looking. Will you tell me why all the men stare at me when I go through the streets?” You are laboring under an illusion. The majority of American men are 700 busy and too self-absorbed (not to say courteous) to stare at any woman ‘n public. “B. M.” writes: “Every day I come in contact with a young man whom I love very much, although I do not show it. He treats me coolly. How can I find out if he cares for me?’ It seems to me that if he cared he viculd try to get better acquainted with y6u. I think you must leave the initia- tive to him. War and Matches. we AR has brought a big boom in the match industry of Sweden, one of the country’s principal sources of rev- enue. Not only has the output greatly increased, but it is estimated that prices have gone up 100 per cent. One reason for this is the practical elimination of Belgian competition. All the Swedish match mills gre work- ing under high pressure and confidence is expressed that fhe boom conditions will continue for at least another year.

How to Prevent - Acid Stomachs and Food Fermentation You may complain of stomach trouble and yet your stomach may be absolutely normal and healthy. The real trouble— the trouble that nearly everybody has at times—is probably excessive acid in the stomach. You may be quite sure that this is your trouble if your food fer- ments, turns sour, causes belching. dis- dress after eating. etc. Excessive acid irritates the delicate lining of the stom- ach abnormally, causing that full bloat- ed feeling.

NCE upon a time there was a4 O Queen who ruled over a king- dom in India. But in the lafid there was one great sorrow—there was no child to inherit the crown. The Queen grew sad and wandered about her gardens weeping, but one day the fairy Queen came and brought a beautiful boy, which she placed in a golden basket near the Queen’s bed. So the baby was adopted and the whole country made happy. Everyone liked this arrangement ex- cept a big gray rabbit, which had been the ray ey pet for years. , One y the baby was sick, so the Queen sent at once for the fairy Queen. In she came riding on a shell made out of spun gold and drawn by two hum- ming birds. She saw Bunny over in a corner hiding behind a velvet curtain and at once understood what the bad rabbit felt—that he was angry and jeal- ous that the baby should take his place in the Queen’s affections. , ‘IT am so worried,’’ exclaimed the Queen, bending over the baby, who }seemed in a fever, ‘‘can you not give me something which will cure him?’ ‘Tt do not think he is seriously sick, ’ replied the fairy, ‘“‘but I will give you two bottles of medicine.

Bunny crept out and put the purple bottle in the place of the golden one, which he hid on the _ shelf. Clang, clang, struck the clock, sounding mid- night. The nurse got up and gave the baby a drink from the purple bottle, as she was sleepy, and did not notice that the medicines had been changed. Bunny lay ‘awake expecting to hear the baby was worse, but it went back to sleep and seemed to rest more soundly than before. Just as the clock struck 1 the door opened and there, in a cloud of pink and crimson haze, stood the fairy. In her hand was a long wand, but the look on ber face was one of anger, as she saw on the table the wrong bottle. Then from under the crib’s curtains she saw a rabbit’s foot peeping out. *‘Come out from your hiding place, you wicked Bunny!”’ called the fairy. And the rabbit scrambled out in terror. ° “T saw you behind the velvet curtain when I was telling the Queen about the medicine, and I fixed up this way to catch you. There was no medicine tin either bottle—only pure water. But I had an idea that you would try just in this way to get rid of the Prince and I set the trap to catch you.” Pane Bunny was weak with shame OW, Bunny heard this, and a and terror, for he knew the fairy would punish him well. “Now I will begin,” she said, as she took out a green powder, sprinkled it on the rabbit and said over him some strange words. ‘First, as you are a big rascal I will make you very much bigger than you are now—about the sizé of a small horse.’’ And Bunny began to swell and swell till he was as large as a pony. “That will do now,”’ continued the fairy, as she sprinkled more powder. “You are a listener, an eavesdropper, that pries into other’s business. For this you shall have great, long, shaggy, ugly ears that keep continually wagging backward and forward. And Bunny’s ears grew big and shaggy and ugly and wabbly. Then, tn disgust he gave a big bray and ran out of doors as a donkey, which he and his children have been ever since.

She started a millinery shop on Eighth avenue. The name “‘Ryan’’* was traced in gold script on the window. There Maggie made hats worth 98 cents and sold them for $2.98, until she stacked up $2000. Then her interest moved three blocks east. She kept a shrewd eye peeled for Fifth avenue acreage. Again the man who does gold lettering came. This time he put “Maggy ” on the win- dow, in demurely quaint old English script. Here Maggie bought Paris models for $20 and sold them for $85. She employed swagger saleswomen who came to work in taxis and shed hauteur and patchouli as they walked. But the brightest, cutest little employe of all was Dora Healy, whose duty it was to dust chairs that weren’t dusty and pick up invisible hair- pins. In Paris she would have been a midinette. In New York she was just “the kid.” “Maggy” inserted an ad in the most exclusive fashion magazines stating that on three certain days she would show a special shipment of French spring cre- ations. At 8 on the first morning Dora reached the shop. Madam usually arrived at 9:30 and the saleswomen at 10. In the cen- ter of the French gray and silver show- room stood a huge wooden case. It was pasted with labels- and covered with scrawls in black paint. Some of them read: ‘“‘Paris-Marseilles.’”’ Others: ‘‘De- pose,’’ etc. “Gee! The French lids!’’ gasped Dora to the errand boy. ‘Say, Tim, I’m going to open ’em and try a few on my gaudy tresses before madam gets down.” Now, it happened that Mrs. Goulastor, troubled with insomnia anyway, thought she’d steal a march on her dear friends and get to “Maggy’s’ early enough to pick the gems of the ship- ment. Her limousine stopped before the door at 9:15. The wooden case had just yielded to Tim's strength. Mrs. Goulas- tor swooped down on the case and grabbed a hat. A slip of paper fluttered to the floor. Mrs. Goulastor picked it up and read it. Dear Mag: WY ane Maggie Ryan’s father died I didn’t have time enough to sew in the labels. Have some of your girls do it. Hope the parley-vooing painted on the outside of the case is all to the mustard, as long as you’re going to show it to prove the lids are imported. I copied it off’n a magazine. In hasts, LIZ. Mrs. Goulastor screamed. On the way out to her limousine she shrilled that she would spread the news and take ev- ery customer away from “‘Maggy.” “See?.

Jane absolutely refused to decline the Brady dinner invitation. Robert re- belled, but finaily gave in to her plead- ings and promised to go. “Just this once, Jane,” he said to her, “and remember, dear, it is under protest, When the time comes that we can return these things I shall be glad to do anything to please ypu, but it is absolutely impossible on to keep up with such people.” ‘What do you expect to give me in place of the :ompanionship of these peo- ple?” Jane asked. “Since you seem to think some gort of social diversion necessary to your happiness, why not have your good times in the afternoon?

The dinner passed off pleasantly—at least to Jane. She was flattered and ad- mired to her heart’s content. And be- fore she left she had promised to join the bridge club that met once a week. “We play only for prizes,”’ Mrs. Brady told her, “and each one entertains the club in turn.’’ Jane pretended not to see the frown on Robert’s brow as she graciously promised to do her share. And he, tired, worried by her attitude in spite of his warnings, said nothing. (To be continued.) | hectic Onean Winks} HE great white whale lives in the Arctic Ocean and in large schools.

FLOYD IS’ NEWEST STAR Crack Missouri University Pole /Vaulter Has Consented to Join Local Club. When the Missouri Athletic Associa- tion holds its athletic meet at the Coli- seum on March 25, the club will be rep- resented by only a small team, accord- ing to Wilbur Hutsell, the new coach, Who the Cherry Diamond starters wil be has not yet been decided, as to date Huteell has had little chance to get ac: quainted and does not know what the boys he will have can do. In fact no real work will be done until the club moves into its new quar ters. It is expected that Esnere will be just four men of the old M. A. A, team back when Hutsell gets down to real work. They will be Bob Lowe, in the short dis- tances; Schneider, half mile; Ollie Vas- sar in the high jump and Irwin Biel in the long distance. In an effort to strengthen the team, Hutsell, before he came here, signed Floyd, the star pole vaulter of the Mis- souri U. track. team for the M. A. A. Vloyd at present holds the Western Con- ference record of 12 feet 6% inches in this event. Floyd, next oe Ot te" will wear the colors of the M. A. in the k. C. A. C. meet in. Kansas City. Only a Few Report. Some of the others who have reported to Coach Hutsell are Rettig, a distance man; Levinson, another distance man, and Greenway, formerly of the Southern A. C., a sprinter. It is expected that the team will be strengthened by the addi- tion of several high school stars. “We have done nothing in track for the last two years,’ said oor eS ea Bassett this morning, “‘and it is really} hard to tell just what we will have. All the old boys who starred for us have nassed out of their prime and we will have to develop an entirely new team.’ Among the old stars of the M. A. A. who will not be entered in the meet of March 2%, are John McCawley, the sprinter, man. Dr. Bassett this morning gave ou: the information that McCawley, who has not started in a race for more than two years, would not attempt a “dome back” in the Coliseum events. The truth of the matter is, that at Y nt it looks as if the M. A. A. of- fici were trying to make the big meet a success more than develop a great ‘eam to enter in the events. Stars Enter Pole Vault. The pole vault, in which five stars of the country already have entered, is ex- pected to be one of the real features of the March 25 meet. Dr. Bassett, who has c e of bringing the stars here, stated this morning that in order to en- ter this event the athletes must have - om record pf doing at least 12 feet. Among the stars who are entered are Foss of Cornell, who holds a record of 32 ft. 9 in.; Floyd, the Missouri U. star, -~who will wear the Cherry Diamond colors; Culp of Illinois U.; Graham of the Chicago A. A. and Ed Knourek of the Iilinois A. C. A new record *may be turned in when this bunch of stars gets together. The elub already has clinched the med- ley relay race between Cornell U. and Pennsylvanta, and at present is looking for another team to énter. In this race the first man runs 220 yards, the second pine He and the third 880, and the fourth a Joe Loomis, the Chicago sprint and hur- dle star, will be another who will show his wares in the Coliseum meet. C. A. C. Develops Six Stari. Half a dozen athletic ‘‘marvels’’ have been developed by Paddy Fitzgerald, the G. A. €, track codch, since ,he took chagge of the squad. The leader among them all is Irwin Mahl, the sprinter, who has tied the Central A. U. rec- ord of 4 3-5s. for the #-yard dash. Mahl’s best time for the century to date is 9 4-5. This was made in the special race against Loomis and Aronson last’ sum- mer, Gus pel - another sprint star devel- rhe ym d, The best Gus ev ~ did in 1 wan’ “eye He has done little in past but is to attem A vom e-back u-g the M.

Ball fs now a full- fledged major league magnate. Not only has he bought himself and associates an American League fran- chise, but he has attended a meeting, has made a speech, has been mis- quoted effectively, and finally has picked the Browns to win. the flag. As if to still further clinch his claims to magnate-ism Phil has be- gun the practice of dyed-in-the-wool big league stuff in the handling of his park. Whereas last year the pub- lic was “ten ered a score card free at Federal Park, at Sportsman’s Park this season fans will have te tear themselves loose from a jitney, if they wish to know the names and positions of the players whom they are paying te see. * * .

And fans will = —. robably never murmur loudly. considering the fact that the PR int Ba is one of the “number,” or hieroglyphic kind, abeolute’? a mystery without the key which is supplied in the scorecard, the con- dition works a handicap on fans. It was hoped that the new own- ers of the Browns would aban- don the secretive stuff and put fn a scoreboard that would not only tell the mames of the play- ers, instead of their numbers, but would show the official rul- ing on every play. Suppose a Theater Tried It! ASEBALL is about the only pro- fessional amusement soliciting public favor which is not willing to inform spectators of the necessary details of the entertainment sup- lied. . Considering that the game: has just emerged from a hard and lo war and that finances are deplete perhaps the local situation can be condoned. But surely the game cannot long ignore sugh trifling atten- tions to public convenience as the one referred to. - = * Vocally. IMMY. CALLAHAN says he will “work his» Pittsburg Pirates,. in their spring training, without gloves, "Tis said it cost James his job when he nanaied the White Sox without gloves, a SEASONED TIMBER—Plank and Wood. * « * After Many Days. ROBABLY the only alteration, other than mere changes of phraseology, in the intercollegiate football rules this year will be one requiring that all players be num- bered. At least Walter Camp ifs so quoted on the subject. Numbering of players has been fought by only two or three of the larger institutions, which resented the attempt of the public to influ- ence them in any particular. No s¢éund objection to designating the team members in this way has ever been -advanced. On the other hand, the practical benefits from the standpoint of the spectators who pay to see contests have been favorably commented up- on, whenever college teams have obliged, in this respect. The introduction of a manda- tory clause into the rules order- ing the use of numbers will merely mark the eng of an unmrea- sonable stand against public wishes, - + ~ HE proposal to abandon the goal after touchdown seems to have been overwhelmed by an avalanche of objections. However, it is said that a move to abolish the punt-out, after a touchdown scoreq near the side lines, will be stricken out. Some coaches hold that the kick should be attempted no matter how difficult the angle. + Ad ae Lewis Going Stale? tiga announcement that Ted Lewis, the British, fighter, has gone stale and will be given a long rest, in the near future, may have some ef- fect on the chances of Harry Trendall, the ~~ boxer who meets the light- ane ast welterweight here Thurs- _Trendall, according to competent judges, is moving very nicely, now, nf bes Prepped — See event arry is a hard man to bea the best at his weight. lees a Lewis is an overworked hoy, According to statistics sent cut by his managers he has fought about 25 fights in the last eight months, or an average of three per month, It would be s t had kept his hee ee oe f condition after rs “endl...
