HARDING DAVIS TELLS HOW THOSE BLINDED IN BATTLE ARE CARED FOR — Noted Correspondent Visits Asylums Both in England and France, Where Disabled Heroes Are Taught Useful Trades—Their Cheerfulness Is Amazing. - By RICHARD HARDING DAVIS. , Copyright by Wheeler Syndicate. LONDON, Feb. 16. HESE days the streets of Paris are filled with soldiers each of whom has given to France some part of his physical self.. That his country may endure, that she may continue to enjoy’ and teach liberty, he has seen tis arm or his leg, or both, blown off, or cut off. But when on the boulevards you mect him walking with crutches or with an empty sleeye pinned beneath his Cross of War, and he thinks your glance is one of pity, he resents it. He holds his head more stiffly erect. He seems to say, “I know how greatly you envy me/’ And who would dispute him? Long after the war is ended, soe long as he lives, men and women of France will honor him, and in their eyes he will read their thanks. But there is one soldier who cannot read their thanks, who is spared the sight of their pity. He is the one who has made all but the stipreme sacrifice. He is the one who is blind. He sits in perpetual darkness. You can remember certain nights that seemed to stretch to doomsday, when sleep was withheld and you tossed and lashed upon the pillow, praying for the dawn: Imagine a night of such torture dragged out over many years, with the dreadful knowledge that the dawn will never come. Imagine Paris with her bridges, palaces and parks, with the Seine, the Tuilleries, the boulevards, the glittering shop windows conveyed to you only through noise, only through the shrieks of motor horns and the shuffAng of feet. The men who have been blind- ed in battle have lost more than sight. They have been robbed of their independ- ence. They feel they are a bur-_ den. It is not only the physical loss they suffer, but the thought that no longer are they of use, haps only a week before had wished to “curse God, and die.” But since then, Hope had returned to each of them, and he had found a door open, and a new life.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. REGULAR army of 150,000 men, organized to the minute and readily capable of ex- pansion under the same officers into an army of 400,000 on a fighting footing, with the national guard organized on identical lines, and an ample number of submarines and seaplanes, con- stitute the fundamentals of the preparedness plan of Lieutenant-General Nelson A. Miles, veteran of the Civil War, Indian fighter and one time com- manding General of the army. Gen. Miles is confident that under his plan the peace strength of the regular army could be ex- panded into the war strength “without adding a single officer or a single regiment.” “This is no new theory,” said the General, in explaining his plan to a congressional committee. “It is the result of years of observation, not_only. in our country, of the requirements and condition of our people, but experience and observation in every other army of the world.” The General’s plan to the committee was but briefly touched in the news at the time it was made. It is here given at greater length. “TI am sure that it would be the most econom- ical of any of the many plans now suggested, and I am sure that it would be the most effective or- ganization that could be adopted by our Govern- ment,” said the General. “It would also be capa- ble of expanding into a military force of 1,200,000 men. This need only be done as the revenues of the Government would warrant. If you have the system and the organization and fill it up from the bottom, you have all the military experience and skill available to be used in the most effective manner. | Without Additional Burden. —| 66 T would require no special or extraordinary | increases of taxes upon the people, or additional burdens. Of course, as you changed the organization there would be vacan- cies at the bottom of the list, which would have to be filled either from West Point or from the army or from civil life. The additional number of Second Lieutenants that would be required by this change I recommend be appointed from states and congressional districts in the course of four years, the same as the appointments now being made to West Point and Annapolis. This system would be purely American and there is nothing to indicate that a larger military force would be required in the near future and I hope never in the distant future. “With the perfected organization there would be ny difficulty in securing the necessary men in case of imminent danger of invasion. You could not keep the men back. At the outbreak of the Spanish-American War we asked for only 160,000 volunteers, but because of pressure and patriotic ardor, we actually enkisted 300,000 men. Only 52,000 of these were sent out of the country before it became apparent that peace was soon coming. No Fear of Invasion. 6 6 T is true that I have no fear of a foreign i invader landing on our shores in large force. The placing of an army on Amer- ican soil is the last thing any European Govern- ment would attempt. It could never be re-em- barked. It would dissolve like snow beneath the midday sun. Whenever it has been attempted it has resulted in disaster. “An enemy, to make any show of strength, must land 400,000 men and 80,000 horses, with all the ammunition, transportation and munitions of war required, with supplies enough to feed the men and animals for at least 90 days, because it would be easy to burn anything within their reach. Then, supposing our own navy at the bottom of the sea, it might be possible for an invader to reach our shore. It would require a tremendous amount of trans- portation to embark an army of 400,000 men and 80,000 horses, together with all equipment and supplies. If such an army should land and the ? your army, this is also suggested: GEN.

This is much larger than the cavalry regiments of Europe. That gives a total of 394,920 men and 7439 officers. “I believe that would be all we will ever need, but in case a war should continue, or should be more threatening, and you wished to increase it still more, utilizing the skill and experience or al] the officers and noncommissioned officers of Should the condition of the country require it, these organiza- tions can be increased to more than 1,000,000 men by converting each regiment into a brigade, each battalion into a regiment, each company into a battalion and each platoon into a company, and assigning the officers temporary commissions ac- cording to the requirements of the service, at the close of the war they returning to their proper sta- tion in the army as organized under the law. The national guard should be organized in the same way. That would give you a peace force of nearly 300,000 men and a war strength of 2,000,000 men.” His Plan we Organization. Federalizing the Guard. difficulty in the way of federalizing the national guard. “Under the Constitution,” he said, “if you want an army for conquest, to carry on a war with some other country, the national guard would not be easily federalized. But for maintaining law and order at home, maintaining the civil government ot the states and the nation, and to repel in- vasion, it is available instantly. Under the Con- stitution to that extent it was wisely federalized 129 years ago. “Section 8 of the Constitution specifically be- stows upon Congress the power to organize, arm and discipline the militia. It reserves to the states only the appointment of the officers and the ‘au- thority of training the militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress.’ National de- fense means resisting a possible invader, not a war of aggression. “The language of this section of the Consti- tution is clear. Congress has power to prescribe rules for training and disciplining the militia, and no limitation was placed on those powers by the makers of the Constitution, which embodies more human wisdom than any other public document devised by man. Congress can require the na- tional guard to be organized and maintained on lines identical with those laid down for the reg- ular army, thus making it a thoroughly effective reserve force. My observation is that the men in the national guard are a patriotic, brave, intelli- gent body of young men, and entitled to high consideration and commendation and to the gratitude of the American people.

Then, supposing our own navy at the bottom of the sea, it might be possible for an invader to reach our shore. It would require a tremendous amount of transportation to embark an army of 400,000 men and 80,000 horses, to- gether with all equipment and supplies. If such an army should land and the ships that brought them could not be destroyed by the patriotism and valor of the Ameri- can people before they could be sent back for another load, then I would want to live in some other country.—GEN. NELSON A, MILES. would care to expend the amount of life and treas- ure to conquer it; and there is no comparison with that community and a great nation covering a continent like out3, with a hundred millions of free people. It is absolutely useless. Thehave no regular army, and I hope Congress will not destroy the organization whieh-has been perfected and is authorized by the Constitution and has been in existence for over a hundred years, but im- prove the organization so as to make it most effective. I would say the same as to the militia. Both are recognized by the Constitution of the United States, but the Constitution does not rec- ognize an unorganized mass or horde of men with- out any control, without any commissioned or noncommissioned officers.” | Spanish War Veterans. EN. MILES called attention to the fact that ‘ : most of the men who volunteered during the Spanish-American War are now with- in military age. “Including the men, in the army and those who have enlisted since (during the last 17 years),” he said, ‘400,000 have passed through all the drill, instruction and discipline of the military service. Approximately the same number have received military training in the national guard. During that time about 136,000 young, educated men have received military instruction at our agricultural colleges under regular army officers. These fig- ures make a total of nearly a million men in our country who have received military instruction either in the regular army, the national guard o: the agricultural colleges, for which Congress appropriates money and furnishes officers for drill acd instruction. This does not include the men in othér military institutions, like the Virginia Military Institute,.the institutions in Georgia, Vermont and other states where young men are drilled and disciplined. “To say that these brave, patriotic men would not respond in case their country was invaded or a serious attempt to invade it, and their Govern- ment and liberties endangered, would be a State- ment as unjust as it would be untrue. Added to the above number there are between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000 men in our country who have passed through all the drill, discipline and instruction of European armies and are now, in the main, earn- est, patriotic citizens of this great republic. “In addition to these there are many officers on the retired lists of the army who have seen more actual warfare than any body of men in any pert of the world. In case of emergency they are capable of organizing and commanding large bodies of men, as is now being done by the Gen- erals in the German army, some of whom have been several years on the retired list and are now called back and are winning victories for that na- From Australia Now in ~ Cairo to Defend Cana.

When Senator Stone, chairman of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee and Speaker Clark warn the President that the House will oppose him on account of fear that we might have to de- fend American rights by force, it is no wonder that Germany banks on support of Congress against the President for her policy of conduct- ing submarine warfare regardless of neutral rights, law and humanity. If Germany is misled into disregard of the Pnes- ident’s stand and into acting on the belief that Americans are too timid and sordid to defend their rights and protect American lives, it will be due tu the demagogic folly of Congress. Americans are peaceful, patient and forbearing. They are inclined to be exceedingly generous to Germany and exceedingly anxious to avoid being involved [in the European conflict. But Americans are quickly aroused by actual wrong; their resent- is fierce and uncompromising. Certainly there was no foundation for the al- leged congressional fear that the President might unnecessarily drag this country into War. He has kept peace under the mogt trying difficulties and a storm of criticism. We believe he will maintain it if possible. We hope Germany will not be misled by congressional politics and hys- terics. Back of Congress is the American people. A great majority of them approve the President’s course and will support him in refusing to aban- don or abridge American. rights. = = ™ a SENTIMENT IN ALSACE-LOERAINE. It is reported that Alsace-Lorraine desires Ger- many to win and that the provincial legislative bodies have made a formal expression on the sub- ject. The authenticity of the expression need not be impeached. Doubtless it is not easy for resi- dents of Alsace-Lorraine entertaining different sentiments to become members of the legislative bodies. Doubtless, also, it would not be particularly healthful just now for any resident, legislator or unofficial person, to wish for anybody else to win. = = rr LESSON IN CONSERVATION. Peru, once so rich that the wealth of its Incas and people had a place among the proverbs of modern languages, has become so poor that she cannot even afford a diplomatic service. The personnel of the service was gradually reduced until the country had but two representatives at foreign capitals, and one of these, the Minister to Washington, is now to be withdrawn. There seems to be a lesson in this on the con- servation of natural resources. It is true that those who stripped Peru of its wealth were for- eigners, which may be a lesson on preparedness also. But what they did has a bearing on con- servation because it shows what may happen when a rich territory is despoiled of its heritage in indigenous riches. Bad as Pizarro’s conquista- dors were, however, they did not ship the Andean water power of the Peruvians back to Spain for their own use and profit, though probably they would have liked to do so if they could. We have native conquistadors with fewer lim- itations. From the water pojyer of the people they are gobbling wealth greater than the Incas ever dreamed of and they lay a hand of truly con- quistador touch on mines of metals, oils and val- uable minerals. MAN’S RIGHT OVER HIS BODY. Has an army (or any other) surgeon the right to perform an important operation, by order of a superior officer or on his own volition, without the consent of the one to be operated upon? Thousands of cases of complaints were crowd- ing the desk and files of the Reichsmilitaerge- richt of Berlin. — Cases of amputations of arm or leg especially oS a wounded preferred to take their chances, rather than be absolutely crippled for life. But the surgeons usually obeyed the soldier's immediate superior, and performed the operation against the will of the subject. The various cases finally were crystallized into ja test case, Which was argued by the best avail- able talent, with the result that the Court ren- will have its definite bearing on the future con- no has fallen out of surgeon must use his judgment as of the patient to con- or April 26, 1915, before the segregation issue be- patient must not be operated upon except by his own request. No man has the right, even for a good purpose, to infringe upon the body rights of the individual. An officer presumes when he orders an operation; and no surgeon can be held. to obey such an order; is in fact compelled by natural law to disobey it. Life is not the prop- erty of anyone except its possessor; nor is the body. This clear definition of the right of the indi- vidual over his’ own life and person {s. creditable to German law. We in-America need the estab- lishment of this right. — —_— — ae THE REPUBLIC CONDEMNS SEGREGATION. Having up to date printed 19 “Segregation Talks,” the whole tenor of which was to aid the passage of the segregation bill, our esteemed contemporary, The Republic, is doubtless too modest to print its editorial opinion on segrega- tion, as this might to some extent undo the work of its “Talks.” We, therefore, take pleasure in setting this opinion before its readers, so that they may he fully informed on the subject. Here is The Republic’s best editorial on segregation: St. Louis is being importuned to adopt a seg- regation law, under which the city is to be par- titioned between the whites and the blacks, so that no member of either race will be permit- ted to move into acs peg xe of the city assigned to the other All such plans are carefully dressed in an appearance of fairness, but no man who thinks his way through the matter can avoid the con- clusion that race segregation means a negro ‘*ghetto,’’ with all the revolting conditions now associated with that word. The negro is the poorer, the less numerous, and the weaker race. As the city grows the stronger race will make room for itself as room is needed, and none but the worst places will be left for the weaker. In those places negro population will congest, negroes will degenerate, and crime will flourish. Disease and pauperism will come in their turn, and disease is no respecter of color. It will not observe the segregation law, nor can its ravages be blotted out of the city’s vital statistics. The conduct of this community toward its negro members now commands the respect of the whole country. The negro in St. Louis has a fair chance under the law to show what he can do for himself, and it is possible to show ‘by statistics of crime, pauperism, the sclool records and otherwise that, all things consid- ered, he is doing very well indeed. As a mem- ber of the Community “te fills his useful place, and no man who views the question in a large Way can say that there is any friction or an- tagonism between the races. Segregation means that all of this will change for the worse, and St. Louis, now proud of its record, will be put upon the defensive. Finding excuses for a rising death rate among negroes and a degenerating negrc community will not be pleasant business. It is never pleasant to seek excuses for doing wrong. The editorial quoted appeared in The Republic came acute. Its reasoning is timely today. The writer of the article knew the trate and ex- pressed it well. WHAT OF IT? It is doubtless true that ammunition makers are in favor of a policy of preparedness on the part of the United States, but what of it? Do arguments in behalf of good roads become en- tirely worthless if they are uttered by men who geli shovels or manufacture road scrapers? The only thing to guard against is the control of road-making to shell-making by the makers of shells and roads. The 80-year-old daddy scheme is not an entire success.

Stevenson received but $100 for his ‘“Virgint- bus Puerisque,” though a letter he wrote about that charming work brought $250 at a sale in New York City last week. For “Treasure Is. land” he received only $500, but at this same sale 4 letter in ‘which he mentions “Treasure Island’ sold for $225. Stevenson was by no means a struggling author, tortured by poverty and lack of recog- nition. His family was well-to-do. Success came speedily. There were years during the latter part of his life when he was considered to have the largest audience of any English writer of the times. He had much renown and large financial rewards. But the fact that he received a total of only $600 for two of his most widely read and most admired works shows that the path of duthor- ship is not much less difficult than it was two or three generations ago. Probably for works that have ceased to exist so far as the public mind is concerned, inferior authors received at the time tenfold, perhaps a hundredfold, more than he received for these two. What would have been the effect on Stevenson’s literary career had he been less independent of the rewards of his literary labors? Perhaps there are now prospective Stevensons whose letters will never command a high posthu- mous price, because their work at present has an appraisal relatively so low as to furnish no in- centive for continuing. It is a consoling thought, however, that a survey of contemporary writers does not disclose very many who betray any am- on to be Stevensons. = = * eicants we shall have no occasion to worry over Japan or any other possible foe. » «| -» il ii A TEST OF INTELLIGENCE.

New York Press: President Wilson himself is responsible for the bitter spirit of members of Congress that represent, or by some distortion of “cra sense imagine they represent, hyphenated constituencies instead of American people. Mr. Wilson and his State Department floundered and of armed merchantmen that they led the Ger- man-Ambassador to understand, they led the Ber- lin Foreign Office to understand, they led the al- lies to understand, they led their own news- ‘paper organs and personal spokesmen to under- Stand that they’ were goitig into this very busi- ness of indorsing the new doctrine that a sub- [ae @240Os “Mine should torpedo armed merchantmen with- « ‘out warning. This was one of thé worst mistakes ever made ‘in the history of our State Department. It was ® Mistake which compromised Mr. Wilson’s for- A German ( Ambassador in 1916, having within a month sug- American history.’ There has been nothing blundered so bewilderingly with this question : “Liners will not be sunk by our submarines without warning and without safety of the lives of the passengers, provided the liners do not. try to escape or offer resistance.” This pledge was not restricted to unarmed liners. It applied to all liners that did not try to escape or offer resistance. In its new submarine order the German Gov- ernment has attempted to tear up this promise. It threatens to treat all armed merchantmen as warships, whether they offer resistance or not, meaning that they will be sunk without warning and without provision for the safety of pas- sengers. Naturally enough, the President has re- fused to acquiesce in Germany’s action. “Congressional protests against.the President’s firmness in this matter must be a comfort and a consolation to Berlin. It is no small triumph for German diplomacy to have arrayed an element in Congress on the side of the German Govern- ment and against the American Government on the issue of whether Germany’s pledges to this country should be kept. The attitude of these members of Congress might well justify the Ger- man For@ign Office in repudiating its promises and in defying the President, but the seeming ad- vantage that Berlin has won in Congress is an advantage that easily may be pushed too far. If the issue ever comes to a vote, the President will be sustained. If it does not come to a vote, he‘ will be sustained anyway. Germany has invaded Congress, but Congress is not yet another Belgium.

New York Times: Mr. David R. Francis is admirably fitted to be Ambassador to Russia. He is worthy of a great post in the public service. , He has had long experience in public affairs, and \ with public men. Governor of Missouri, Secretary of the Interior, head of the St. Louis exposition, he has shown energy, competence, tact in political ard civic undertakings.

Such reinforcements coming from Constantinople must leave the railway at Angora and march 450 miles across country to Diarbekr, if that should turn out to be the Russian objective. From the Russian rail-head at Sary Kamysh in the Cauéasus to Diarbekr is about 150 miles. As against the Turks the Russians have therefore an enormous advan- tage in communications, a factor which the Austro-Germans have used repeatedly with strik- ing results. In other words, while Russian suc- cesses on their European front have regularly failed to be driven home because of railroad infe- riority, in Asia Minor there is every reason to be- lieve that victory can be steadily pushed. RUSSIA PREFERABLE TO TURKEY. Philadelphia Record: If Armenia is conquered by Russia it must be the wish of all good Chris- tians that the latter nation shall retain this dis- tracted and devastated region when peace shall be declared. Russian rule is by no means perfect, but it is heaven itself compared with the methods of the unspeakable Turk. There are great possi- bilities for Armenia under a stable administration. So there will be for Mesopotamia, if it passes un- der British control, as now seems quite likely. In the interest of cizilization Turkey in Asia ought to be dismembered, just as that portion of Europe has been. It is within the realm of possibilities that’ the fall of Erzerum is an important step in this direction. MAY CUT BAGDAD RAILROAD. New York Sun: The strategy of the Grand Duke Nicholas presents no difficult problem. It may be assumed that he will endeavor to take Trebizond with as little delay as possible. Its possession is necessary to the security of Erze- rum. Whatever Russia's intentions with regard to Constantinople may be, to push an army south from Erzerum by way of Diarbekr to Nisibin on the route of the Bagdad railroad, seems impera- tive. The distance from Erzerum is about 200 miles, as the crow flies. Success in the operation would put an end to the Turkish campaign in Mesopotamia and the Bagdad corps engaged with the Britisn at Kut-el-Amara would be cut off if it did not fall back in time. it should be remembered, however, that Aleppo is only 209 miles southwest of Nisibin, and Aleppo is the headquarters for the Turko-German prep- orations io invade Egypt. At that point there is a large concentration of troops, and heavy rein- forcements would naturally be hurried east to strike the Russians at Nisibin. The fall of Erze rum will halt the Egyptian enterprise probably, but there should be a tremendous fight for the Bagdad railroad route. i pet A PRIZE WORTH KEEPING. __ Pittsburg Press: That the allies will stop at no sacrifice to retain their prize hardly neéd# to be said. It must have cost a huge effort to win iz, for the city is defended by a line of the most modern forts constructed and equipped under German direction. There has never from the’ first been any mistaking its value to whoever held fit. It commands both the Tigris and the Euphrates valleys, and its capture is the natural prelude fo ‘an advance on Bagdad and the delivery of a @thg- It is this aspect of the matter, evidently, that most inter- gering blow at the Turkish power. ests the military experts. Some of them agree ~ that the capture of 100,000 prisoners and 1000 guns - of the most modern artillery is no mean advan- tage. But after all this is not what will maké the joint strategy board of the entente allies rejoice. Their satisfaction hinges, rather, on the fact, that Russia now has access to the Black Sea in Tiirk- ish Asia, and the whole morale of the entefite cause has been strengthened in consequence, ot what appears by all accounts thus far to be a disabling defeat for Turkey and the most impor: tant event of months. THE POLITICAL EFFECT. Philadelphia Press: Politically, the capture of Erzerum has fallen like a bombshell in; the camp of the Teutonic alliance. Reports from Oon- stantinople indicate conditions of great tnrest. Rumania, inspired by the Russian victory, is, said to be making final preparations for intervention. To meet this contingency Austria is understood to have withdrawn troops from the Balkan région and massed them along the Rumanian frontier. Turkey, on the other hand, has withdrawn, her forces from Bulgaria and Servia to meet the new menace of Grand Duke Nicholas, and has left Bulgaria apprehensive under the threat of a joint invasion by the Anglo-French from Saloniki” and Rumania from the north. The allies, on. their part, are believed to be bringing the reorganized Servian, Montenegrin and Albanian “trééps around by sea to Sakoniki for use in the contem- plated offensive on that front. : 7 THREATENS CONSTAN TINOPLE: e Detroit Free Press: For severai aays' how part of the consequences of continuing and com- plete success by the Russians has been apparent The relief of Amara, the cutting off of the Tel. tonic troops in Southern Mesopotamia, thé Savas of Egypt from danger of attack, and a’ ware northwestward through Asla Minor hav- -ntoldeo themselves naturally to the imagir.cion. ~ +54 Yet it 18s only the announcement of edvance Gy sea toward Trebizond and the systematic both- barding of the Ottoman coasts that have revealed the full magnitude of the Russian plans The approach on Constantinople, rasbtsosy 8 the* real objective of the campaign, is not to be by Tand alone, but by sea and land, with a complete s¥een ot the intervening territory and wators that: will leave no enemy in the rear and will mininsize tie problem o7 obtaining supplies and reinforcemeits.

A etaff officer who has just descended the steps sees him and thrusts out a hand for him to shake. He gives it a quiet, dignified shake, and they pase a few compliments before they pass on. It occurs to me that this is the first time I have seen an English officer shake hands with a native and the explanation is being expressed right behind me. “A Bedouin,” en officer is saying, “‘the first I’ve seen for some time; right off the desert, too. Isn’t he a specimen for you? A man, by Jove, and a gen- tleman!"’ And so On the sidewalk immediately below the rail of the hotel an Arab woman is squatting, telling the fortunes of two Australians. A water carrier, dirty beyond belief, pushes along through the swarming porters. Officers are ar- tiving, bag and baggage, every hulf minute, and through the red fezzes comes a brighter touch of color as two British Generals, red bands on their | caps, red tabs on their lapels and strips of service ribbons with every color of the rainbow, pull up.

Then he stood on a}. chair, and In sheer exuberance of spir+ fits, howled his glee_at the Egyptian skies. These men were not drunk, mind you. They had hardly had a dozen drinks apiece. The night was yet young, and they would not “feel their licker’ for hours, yet I never saw anything to compare to this virile, this male atmos- phere, and, after all, it was only a lit- tle afternoon diversion on the way into Cairo. These Australians will go down in Egyptian history along with the Ptolo- mies and the Pharoahs. Catro certain- ly will never forget them. It will cer- tainly never forget this night. For the Australians are loosé in it, and even though there are 1500 of their own men and the entire police force trying to stop them, they are outting and burn- ing their way through the toughest na- tive quarter. Amuck in Native Quarter. | Early in the evening I felt there was preternaturally quiet, and they went along the streets with a fixed look on their faces. warm, many of them were wearing coats, and it did not appear just what they had beneath them. But now they have them out—axes, and with them they are walking right through the houses. Something like this happened once be- fore since the Australians were landed at Alexandria from Gallipoli, on Christ- mas eve, but nothing so well organized and on so large a scale, though much rougher. I first heard what was going on when an orderly came into a restaurant full of Australian officers and shouted: “Orficers all report to headquarters for duty. The blighters is on the ruck again.”’ ; In two minutes the restaurant was half empty, and I followed the Austra- lian Captain I was with on the double run. He knew where to report. He knew “his blighters,’’ and he headed. with uné@rring judgment toward the right district, without stopping for or- ders I noticed the others did the same. In the Australian army one does not wait for unnecessary orders. Half a mile, partly on the run, partly rocked along behind galloping ponies in a gharry, brought us over to the south- east, where the streets are the narrow- est and the population the most dis- reputable in Cairo. uwue howl I heard yesterday in Heliopolis was entirely ab- sent. I expected to. find a frenzied mob of Australians roughing the quarter. But there would have been no outcry except for the shrieks of the natives, as axes crashed through doors, furni- ture fell crashing into the alleys and bedding tumbled out of windows. The Captain jumped out of the gharry and seized by the shoulder a big fellow who was swinging his ax at the corner post of a ram-shackle old building. The whole structure was shaking under his mighty blows. “Leave off and carry on with you!” the Captain shouted at. him. “What for?’ the big private demanded. “Didn’t they rob me mite and me on this dump? Didn't they reb our mites in this whole district?’ I cannot even suggest the picturesque expletives of his language, but he left off and went back under arrest. Down through the alleys we raced, dodging the crashing furniture and plunging up every flight of stairs where we heard shrieks or saw tumbling fur- niture. My friend, the Captain, is an Australian of sorts himself, and he made them stand about. “Carry on, ye drunkards,’’ he shouted at them, and the usual response was: “What's the matter with ye? We're not drunk.”’ Only Gathering Some Kindting. | We met a tall boy who had hardly enough beard to shave, coming down a flight of stairs, jumping from floor to floor, and bringing the railing with him. Pieces of it were splintering into the hall below. “What ye think you are doing?’ the Captain called out. “Getting some kindling for me fire. What did you think I was doing?” *‘Well, come out of that and carry on with you. You’re under arrest, and |] have a notion to knock your fool young head off first.”’ We saw the street light up around a turn and abandoned the boy to race vn to the bigger excitement. A house was afire, quite deliberately and consciously set afire, and as carefully guarded to Keep the fire from spreading. There was a gang of Australians doing 2 thorough job. “You're all under arrest!’’ the Cap- tain shouted. They went on about their work as if he were not there. He shouted again, seizing two men py their shoulders. “Easy, Captain,” said the man on his left. ‘‘We heard you. But we had to finish our work first, though I can’t see it would do any harm to let the whole of it burn,’’ The fire was controlled with astonish- ing ease, and the Captain stayed to »x- ert his authority and put them all under arrest. So I went on among the excited, gesticulating natives, Kgyptians, Arabs, negroes. Most of them were women, and there was real tragedy in their voices as they saw their tew possessions wrecked as half a dozen burly Australians plunged through. Before long I was hopelessly lost, but everywhere I turned there were Aus- tralians cooly and methodically taking vengeance on certain marked spots. The ccolness of it impressed me most. They were not drunk. They were just teach- ing a lesson. lt took hours to round them all up. w rest.. I have been astonished aT the attitude of the population as a whole.

On Friday the Senate voted on an amendment to the bill offered by Senator Walsh of Montana, which had been debated for three days, and re- jected it by a vote of 34 to 18. This “show down” convinced supporters of the bill that it will go through the Senate substantially as reported to that body. Purpose of the Bill. The primary purpose of the bill is to confer on the Secretary of War authority to grant water power per- mits on navigable streams for terms up to 50 years, and until terminated by the Federa] authorities on reason- able notice. At the end of the running period the grant may either be renewed by the Secretary of War or the plant taken over by the Federal Govern- ment at a fair valuation. Forfeiture of a permit for failure to comply with the prescribed conditions is pro- vided for in the bill. In awarding permits to construct power dams in navigable. streams preference is given to municipalities or other political subdivisions of ates and public utility companies, where the power developed is to be used for municipal or public utility purposes. a Provision is made in the bill for the payment by grantees to the Fed- eral Government of “reasonable charges” for the benefits accuring under water power grants through the construction, operation and ments, including storage reservoirs. These charges are to be fixed from time to time by the Secretary of War in proportion to the benefits actual. ly received. Power to Fix Rates. The bill confers upon the Interstate “Ceommerce Commission power to fix the rates which may be charged by power companies for the product of plant con- structed in navigable streams, where the current enters into interstate com- merce. Where the power is consumed within the State in which the plant is situated, the charges, rates and service 4 Of the power companies are made sub- ject to the laws of the states. Provision is made for Punishment of individuals or corporations which may violate ‘any proper order of the Secre- tary of War or fail to live up to the terms of their grants. A fine of $1000 is fixed as the penalty, and every month the grantee remains in default ‘will be considered a separate offense. According to Senator Shields, the au- thor of the bill, the people of the United States are losing $700,000 a day for tack of such a measure on the statute books. “Speedy development of 15,000,000 horsepower, now flowing to waste in the navigable streams of: the United States will follow the enactment of this bill into law,” id Senator Shields. “This power is eq to that now gen- erated by steam plants which are con- suming over 100,000,000 tons of coal an- nually at a cost of approximately $250,- 000,000. To Preevnt Future Wastes, “The prime reasons which have pre- vented the development of water power energy in the United States are found in the restrictive policy of the present statutes concerning the matter, which experience has shown to be .practically prohibitory of it. Under the provisions of this bill water power resources of the country would be developed and utilized end future waste prevented, which is conservation in its highest and truest sense. . “The bill is primarily framed in the interest of the consumers. It provides for cheap power by which fertilizers and many necessaries of life can be produced and furnished to the people cheaper than is now done with power produced by steam. “Instead of giving the power compa- nies anything which can be used for ex- ploitation of the public, this bill closes the door to any stock-watering or finan- cial chicanery which might serve as an excuse for high rates or charges. — - “Tt contains an express provision pro- | hibiting a development from constituting @ part of a monopoly or a conspiracy in restraint of trade, supplemental to ths {prohibitions of the Sherman anti-trust law. “Delay in the enactment of this meas- | | ‘Continued on Next Page. sf Second Week Consolidation Sale of Pianos and Player-Pianos © Coming as an addition to the wonderful attractiveness of the new Field-Lippman home at 1120-1122 Olive Street, the consolida- tion of thé Kansas City and St. Louis Stores makes a buying oppor- tunity of far-reaching interest. The tremendous response to our last week’s advertising proves this! An Event of Great and Genuine Importance! Field-Lippman have never advertised a sale unless it was a real sale.

We are compelled toytake radical measures, and the prices juoted below indicate What awaits you here. Both New and Used Instruments . Are Offered at Low Prices! In combining the St. Louis and Kansas City stocks there are scores and scores of new instruments received last year, but of discontinued case designs—choice, plain-line, beautiful- ly figured cases; musical quality up to Field-Lippman rigid standards in every respect. The values we offer are startling indeed! We have a large number of used instruments which have been taken in exchange for new player-pianos. These-used instruments have been carefully inspected and put in perfect playing condition by Field-Lippman experts. Maximum of value at the prices asked, This is indeed an event of great and cal comparison. They represent the absolute and we invite the most criti- genuine im- portance to the St. Louis musical public. ‘‘Values Are Greater Than Advertised” These are the very words used by dozens of visitors who last week responded to our an- nouncements in the newspapers. than a small number of the instruments We ere unable, through lack of space, to mention more offered in this sale, but in every instance you will find more for your money than you expected.

GRAND TWO KODAK STORES M:. Wm. Mason Had Weak Lungs He Found That a Good Rub With Vick’s “Vap-O-Rub”’ Salve Over the: Throat and Chest Always Gave Relief. Mrs. Wm. Mason, 844 S. Tenth St., tried Vick’s “Vap-O-Rub” for the first time last winter. She writes: “My husband has weak lungs and catches cold easily. ‘Vap-O-RuB’ is cer- tainly a blessing to us. I rub his chest well at night, and he swallows 4 little bit of it, and his cold will al- ways be lots better by morning. I have also used ‘Vap-O-Rub’ for burns. Just rub the burned part with it, and it seems to draw all the fire out and take away the pain at once. My sister has used it for ca- tarrh in the head and found it fine.” “Vap-O-Rub” was introduced in St. Louis last winter for the first tims. It. is the invention of a North Caro- lina druggist and in the South is universally used.

The Houston report shows, on the contrary, that the most rapid devel- opment is in the national forests, where conservation is best enforced.

Quotes His Letter, As I said in an open letter of Jan. 29 to the President: ‘ “Natural resources lie at the foun- dation of all preparedness, whether for peace or for war. No plan for national defense can be effective un- less it provides for adequate public control of all the raw materials out of which the defensive strength of a nation is made. Of these raw mate- rials water power is the most essen- tial, because without electricity gen- erated from water power we cannot manufacture nitrates, and nitrates are the basis of gunpowder. There are no great natural deposits of ni- trates in the United States as there are in Chile. It would be folly to al- low the public water powers, which can supply this indispensable basis of national defense, to pass out of ef- fective public control.” A concerted movement is on foot to break gown the conservation pol- icy. Feeble resistance or none at all is being made by official Washington. Unless the press and the people come to the rescue, the power Interests are likely to win. This is a public mat- ter wholly removed from political partisanship. Your paper's help is needed. For nearly 10 years . this fight for the public water powers has gone on. We ought. not to lose tt now.

It would seem that whether the birds belong to thé states or the nation, whether they are interstate com- merce or retail groceries, or whether it is good or bad for the country to pursue them in rubber boots and per- il of pneumonia, ought not to be such a hard nut to.crack that an expert judicial body like the United States Supreme Court could not do it in more than four months. Yet not one word is handed down, the ducks are pecking the hunters’ eyes out, and the people who have looked in the newspapers every day for a decision are inia fair way to perish of nerv- ous prostration. It has been report- ed that three members of the court were against the law. Emerson Hough seems :-to have been the source of this rumor. Since then one mem- ber has died. Whether he were one of the three, we do not know. Pos- sibly his was the vote that would have broken a tie. At any rate, »verybody interested in the subject has been glad for a new field of spec- ulation, and until the ducks sudden- 'y floated in on a south wind the other day, we were bearing up pret- ty well. That incident made a great difference. It seemed that the ducks, anticipating an early decision them- selves, decided to go north early and give themselves the benefit of the doubt. They came in clouds, and by this time, no.doubt, the great bulk of them have escaped across the Ca- nadian border. So much for dilly- Jallying in the Supreme Court. AST Monday was the most L. promising day the hunters have had. On.that day the members of the Court, after long deliberation over some pressing mat- ter, resumed the bench. That there would be a decision on the Federal bird law not later than Tuesday or Wednesday seemed as certain as that spring had come and that wild ducks were. moving into the North. What happened?. It seems almost absurd. At a time when the country could have been set at rest one way or the other on a matter which has prob- ably shortened the lives of more men than the Civil: War, the court calm- ly handed down a derision touching an alleged infringement of patent in the name of a ladies’ shoe! How it could have hit upon anything so trivial when it might have stilled the beating heart of a great constituency by declaring its mind on the Federal bird law, is past making out. It just did it. Hunters were astounded. = —_— maustese ~ Doin Quattro NALLIE, THE eo Or Saving the Ammunition Plant Scenario Written by W. H. James; =Q= Pictures by S.

Let supposed that the long silence in the United States Supreme Court had been due to a hard-fought battle over the Federal bird law. That no- body seemed even to have discovered that case on the docket, was too much. Whether Mr. Brandeis would have made any difference is a ques- tion. He, too, seems something of a crank about trivial things. He probably never lost a day’s work in his life because the ducks were. fly- ing, or never knew the bliss of hav- ing his boots full of ice water on a cold day in March. Still, the hunt- ers would rather have the case de- cided against them than not have it decided at all; and if his appoint- ment would mean a decision either one way or the other, they would all gladly support him. It is delay that kills. Nowadays when duckshooters eet their first inquiry is about the Federal law. If none of them has heard anything about it, they simply sigh and disperse.

The Security League isn’t going to do it, or the Boy Scouts. We must learn, like the Germans, to think of everything.

They say “Our will, be declared invalid.”” In the next breath they say, “Our laws unjustly discriminate against, and humiliate and cppress the negro.” If the laws will be declared titutional, how can they do the great wrongs which our oppo- nents charge they will do? Our laws Cannot wrong the negro if they will be invalidated by the courts. If our Oop- ponents are so cock sure that the laws will be declared invalid, why do they fume and fuss so much about them? They also quote from the Declaration of Independence, “All men are created equal,”” and they capitalize the word “equal.” Then they turn about face and say, “It is the bounden duty of the whites to encourage and help the ne- groes.”" If the negroes and whites are equal, why should and how can the whites help the negroes?’”’ Again they say, “The negro does .wt invade white property,” and then about THESE EXTRAORDINARY | (tain F 4 MAMMOTH SALE OF sone x i id iP Ne FN OR re ee eensser im NEW NK SPRING Monday we are going to sell aod seeen® ’s and misses’ beautiful new Spring Suits for just about ¥, their actual a There are dozens of styles, designed both for women and misses. “There arp plain colored serges and gaberdines, and ehecks; black and , many novelties in = combination silks.

CHARLES HENRY PHILLIPS JR. Segregation in Pennsylvania. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Why do the Republicans oppose *¢s- regation? I lived for five years in a Pennsylva- nia town (Chambersburg) where it worked nicely. The colored folk were happy and contented in their own com- munity, with their own churches and neighborhood. Some of the timid young wives had trouble inducing their em- ployes to live upon the premises, ail preferring to spend their spare time among their own people. A FRIEND OF THE COLORED FOLK, F. O., Good of a Race vs. A Grocery Store. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Republic of Feb. 2 produces @& statement by Rev. Robert Carson of | 3509 Bernard street, in which he advo- cates segregation. It seems to me that the only excus° he has for being in such favor of seg- regation is that he opened a grocery store and made a failure in his under- taking. It is not a surprise to me that all such negroes should make a failure at anything they undertake. According to his ideas, if anyone or any body of people would listen to such ideas as my colored brother has, we would all be bound back into the shackles of slavery. A race man in my: estimation never undertakes to push his fellow-man back into the gutter of inferivrity, but seeks an avenue in life wherein he can push his race in to progress and prosperity. It seems to me that Mr. Carson has ncthing in mind but his own welfare. He seemingly cares nothing for the wel- fare and uplift of his. race. In my estimation a man of his ideas is detrimental to the negro. I am sorry that he holds his race responsible for his failures. I have been in business in nine different cities in the United States. Some of my undertakings in the business world were sticcessful and others were failures, but I have not and hcpe I will never be narrow-minded erough to tiiink that my people—the people I love—are responsible for any- thing I have ever undertaken. ° I am glad that the race as a whole does not think as he. If this were the case it would not be long before we would be a lost race and back into the bends of slavery. - Mr. Carson has for- gotten that we were brought to this country against our desires by the very Same people that are now trying to Segregate us; and he has also forgotten that we serve the same God that he or any other man serves. We fight for the sume American flag that any other man in this ceuntry fights for and we are loyal, law-abiding American citizens and love our country. Under the circum- Stances [ cannot see how Mr. Carson feels that segregation is a good thing for his people. He should turn his face to the dark ages of shame and never ettempt to look another negro in the eye, J. J. MATTIOY, 4066 Fairfax. From a Colored Teacher. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am writing to express to you my Pérsonal thankfulness for the very wise, courageous, manly manner in which you are defending the manhood-rights of the colored people of St, Louis and the whole country.

This ordinance is not aimed at the worthless criminal negro of the downtown districts, but at those who are trying to buy homes m respectable neighborhoods. It says to every negro, good and bad, “You are unworthy of becoming a good citizen, and we shall see that you are not permitted to become worthy.” Which is better, to encourage these people to buy property and become self- supporting, upright citizens, or to de- grade them into outlaws, at least ‘0 making them enemies of our city and country. A great cosmopolitan city cannot af- ford to be partial toward its children. Every one should share all of its ad- vantages equally, just as every one should be impressed with his duty to do his share toward its upkeep. Concede every argument advanced in favor of segregation, and the fact re- mains that we white people are more to blame for these conditions than the negro. We brought the negro to this land; we enslaved him for profit; we freed him. We have educated his chil- dren; our white real estate men sold him property in white neighborhoods. The money which they have paid for their property is hard-earned coin. A negro has not the opportunities to make large sums of money by stock manipula- tions, squeeze outs and other big steals which we white people enjoy. You say it may become my happy lot to live next door to a negro. My reply is that I would rather live next door to a negro whose general moral trend is upward, than next to a white rail- road branch manipulator, a wife-beater or tin-can banker. I feel that we should defeat this pro- posed ordinance because it is morally, legally and civically wrong. It is dead wrong. L. V. STONECIPHER. The Negro as Soldier and Citizen. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In last night’s Post-Dispatch I noticed an article from George B. Jones of 4237 Cottage avenue, wherein he states that the “blood of loyal negro soldiers has dyed the battlefields of our country from the Revolutionary War down.”’ As a descendant of a Revolutionary soldier and a student of history, I am wonder- ing what battlefields they fought or when, until ’63, they were slaves, not a!- lowed to carry arms under any circum- stances. Well do I remember the question eae —_—— ‘ 4 Nation-Wide Factory Distribution of High-Grade Alum- _ inum Ware for Advertising Purposes ‘Jen Thousand Homes to Be Benefited by This Great Ex One of the Most Remarkable Offers Ever Made in the History of the Business World ‘Your home can be brought within the reach ‘of this great distribution if you will act quickly.

Kilpatrick in his raid around Richmond to liberate the Union prisor- ers confined in Libby Prison. If the negro has so much civic pride, one would think he would be glad t% have a section to himself, making his part of the city reflect that pride. In- stead, look at any section they inhabit. Look at what a few years ago Was beautiful Pine street. I recall one ‘n- stance in particular. A family who owned a stately home in the 3400 block was loathe to leave until the negro faim: ilies who moved near there made life intolerable by their insolence and im- posing on the little girl in the fami! whenever she weht on the street. Prvp- erty was so depreciated they could not sell to buy elsewhere, so had to just leave it and rent. Does the city owe our white citizens any consideration, or does it not? Nor is Pine, beautiful Pine as it was, the only one. There is Lawton, Locust, Washington, West Belle place, Morgan, Cook, Page, Finney, in fact whereve: they have gone, has the blight fallen! WHITE CITIZEN. True to American Ideals. : To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. IT do not think I could choose a more birthday to thank you for the service you render the people of this city and country every day of the year. St. Louis is to be congratulated upon having a metropolitan newspaper, like the Post- Dispatch. True to American ideals al- ways, clinging to the tenets enunciated by that great man, Mr. Pulitzer, who founded it. There is nothing of the hyphen in your Americanism. In your columns is always found all the newest news, the best advertisements and editorials that fairly sparkle with truth. The Post- Dispatch is a paper with a mission and a purpose. You believe and teach that all the good things of America are goo:l for all who love American principles and strive to maintain them. You would not cloes the gate of opportunity to any man or nation. Not only is the Post-Dispatch a staunch supporter of all that is best in American ideals, but you frequently in yuur editorial colurnns: go farther, and almost proclaim as your position that of the champion of the noble and undying characteristics of the lowly Nazarene. I, as a minister, wish to thank you for your notable, correct and earnest advocacy of decency, law and order— and also for your advocacy of justice and fair play toward our coolred pop- ulation. I am glad that you decry the efforts of misguided men to stir up race hatred in this city against the bet- ter class of our colored population. There is no call for this legislation whatever, because it is iniquitous, and can but injure the good name of our city. Again thanking you, I beg to re- main, S. A. MOSEBY. The White Man’s Ruined Home. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, I have often admired the stand taken by the Post-Dispatch on many current questions, but I regret to see that it is on the wrong side of the segregation matter. Instead of going into glittering gener- alities about segregation why not get down to the facts? Why not send out and investigate the localities that have been ruined because of the lack of a segregation ordinance? “It is a condi- tion and rot a theory that confronts us.’’ Take West Belle place, where I lived for 19 years, one time a beautiful residence street, on which were many valuable homes, some occupied by prom- inent people, and see how the influx of colored people has depreciated the prop- erty there from 50 to 75 per cent, abso- lutely and ruthlessly forcing people out of their homes. And that is only one out of many instances in the city. I am a friend of the colored man, but ‘why should I not favor a law that is not unfair to him, but which will pre- vent him, or some villainous real estate agent through him, from driving me away from my home? Suppose, Mr. Editor, that tomorrow two colored fam- ilies moved into houses on each side of the one you live in, how long would it be before you, and all of your staff of editors, would be scurrying to the polls to vole for segregation? (Call attention of your cartoonist to this). In brief, any voter familiar with con- ditions in this city in this respect, or who can become so with a little investi- gation, and who does not vote in favor of segregation, is one utterly regardless of what is fair and just for both the white and the colored race. lL. M. WRIGHT. It Will Be Up to the Landlord. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your editorials have been favoring the negro. You may be right, but to give us white folks a show, please tell us through the columns of your valuable paper what the home-owner can do to protect his property should segregation fail to carry. You have mentioned that segregation will cause bitter race feel- ing. This won't be a circumstance to the trouble that will come if segregation is defeated, and the negro takes it as an invitation to move where he likes, and this surely is the thing’ the negro will do. Think it over. A TAXPAYER AND PROPERTY OWNER. Landlords Neglect Negro Tenements. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I would like to ask Mrs. John Clemens Brown why it is that she and many others blame the negroes for the condi- tion of Fairfax avenue and other negro districts. It is the fault of the owner and real estate agents that the prop- erty occupied by negroes is in such a bad condition. Why not blame the own- ers for renting their houses to negros in these so-called nice neighborhoods? I am sure the negroes could not move in these places unless the owners wanted them to. The agents will stretch a big sign upon the houses, and have them printed in the largest letters that they can: “For Colored.’ Then, : nat- urally, the negro seeing a nice house and (like all other races of people), he tries to have a respectable home to live in. But just as soon as the negroes move in the rent is increased, and the agents and owners quit making repairs, and if they do make any they don’t oa Next P j appropriate occasion than Washington's | | ? - a SUNDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 27, 1916. a fel? 2) j Le) 3 ROOM é ee a . ae a = a * _ = Ls ie : tek 4 : : on 4 a Ve ae j j J / f Pi ! j , Ps a Se 7 y re, eae - = a ie . 5 ‘ oe Es : * « rol ee ace Mite ee oat oe ey Pe kes Al vei eh ae ; i a i % - - : - £ is ‘g ' ” Fy om pte ‘ ; s - Ps » " t .

While agitation on the subject in Congress has subsided for the time being, the disposition on the part of leaders in the movement for a con- gressional warning seemed tonight to be a waiting one. By recessing in- stead of adjourning the Senate re- flected the determination of its lead- ers to prevent by parliamentary tac- tics any discussion of the Gore resolution, Senator Gore in his state- ment characterized this action as “rendering a policy of watchfyl wait- ing” unavoidable.

In the first place American citizens character- ized by Senator Stone as moral traitors who would recklessly travel on armed belligerent ships, endangering their own lives and the safety of the country, have been practically if not officially warned that they must travel at their own peril and without the moral or legal] sup- port of the Congress. “In the second place, the country has been reassured that the Congress will not sacrifice millions of lives and bil- ions of treasure in defense of a useless and unessential right that ought to be withdrawn with dignity rather than conserved with butchery and that the Congtess will not abdicate its constitu- tional authority over peace and war in favor of irresponsible adventurers who ican suggestion made weeks ago for i the disarming of merchant ships came true, the vital interest of America equally above the interest of Germany and the allies.’ — German Quoted as Saying Break With U. S. Weuld Hasten Victory. AMSTERDAM, Feb. 26.—The Frankfurter Zeitung publishes an in- terview on submarine warfare cred- ited to a high naval official whose views, in substance, follow: “A majority of German naval offi- cers believe that a complete breach between Germany and America would be conducive to a far earlier victo- rious termination of the war, but only if Germany derived all the re- sults logically arising out of such a breach. “As goon as Germany was in such a position that she need have no more consideration for America she could declare all Great’ Britain blockaded and announce that every ship of whatever flag which at- tempted to enter a_i British port would be regarded as a blockade runner and destroy it without warn- ing. This policy would lead to the starvation of Britain and thus to her submission and then automatically the submission of Russia and Franee. America then would be isolated and woulg have to submit because Ger- many, having obtained all the en- tente battleships and submarines, would be far. stronger on the sea than America. “America, when defeated, would have to surrender all German mer- chant ships which she had seized and also to pay all war costs of the cen- tral Powers and their allies.” a England te Reply te Notes on Mail Seizures at “Earliest Possible Moment.” WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—Great Brit- ain has informed Ambassador Page at London that it will reply to the Ameri- can notes regarding interference with neutral mails and the trading with the enemy act at the earliest possible. mo- ment. The notes were dispatched sev- éral weeks ago, and recently the State Department asked for replies. It is in- Gicated that Great Britain is awaiting the result of conferences with her allies would, if they could, usurp the power | \before responding. Eee usage should be changed, but that he alone could not do it. “So according to that,” he went on, “British armed merchantmen may continue to treat German submarines as pirates, but our submarines must treat the enemy auxiliary warships as inoffensive traders, all because the law, even according to Mr. Lans- ing, doesn’t exactly seem to fit, but cannot be changed without the con- sent of the belligerents. “No, Germany cannot grant that argument of one-sidedness. Germany cannot any longer lessen her chan-es to win the war against England when the means to that end are in our possession. No, we cannot af- ford to do that even for the sake of relations with neutral Powers.” “Count, it has been said that you rather invite a break with America, or are indifferent to it,” I remarked. Does Not Desire Break. “That is absolutely-false,” he re- plied with some heat, “I take the standpoint that we will very gladly live in peace and friendship with the United States; that we want to main- tain the unbroken friendly re lations of over a century; that we have shown our good will and given proof of our good intentions in that directior; but that higher than the earnest wish too live in peace with America is thé right and duty we have to fight for the existence of the German nation and independence of the German peo- ple which is again avowedly threat- ened by Premier Asquith, and to fight for that with every arm and weapon} we have. “If Washington * deaf to such argumentations then we must accept it that the American Government has not any intention to think justly or impartially, but that it identifies its wishes and interests with those of Great Britain, “We in Germany regret this deep- ly, but would have to take the stand- point that our own existence and in- dependence, both of which the British ee a HOW TO BE SLIM If you are too fat and want te reduce your weight 15 or 20 pounds, don’t starve and weaken your sys- tem, or think you must always be laughed at on account of your fat, but go to any good druggist and cet a box of Oi] of Korein capsules, take one after each meal and ene before retiring et night.

Hopes Submarine War Will Reopen. “T hope the submarine war will re- open and be pressed with all possible vigor. If after our good will -‘is shown to afford safe conductto Amer- icans through special ships which has been ignored by Washington, Americans wilfully place themselves in unnecessary danger of losing their lives, and this results in a break of relations, perhaps war, then let the American people and history place the moral responsibility where it will rest—-the present American Govern- ment.” “Germany will stand by her guns in the announced submarine war against England. Let that be clearly understood. Germany will conduct a legal war with a legal naval arm of warfare, recognized as being a legal! naval arm by your Mr. Lansing. Let that also be clearly understood,’’ said a high German official to me today. “The impression you say ‘obtains in America, the -ame official continued, “that Germany is seeking to force the United States into a war. That is too ridiculous to call for an answer. We haven't reach-17 that pinnacle of mad- ness. Will Prosecute War to End. “Germany,” he added, “wants to and is going to prosecute a war against England to a decision in which our U- boats, a recognized legal arm, will be one of our means to that end. “We ask nothing from the United States. We merely desire and hope that Americans will exercise that care of their own safety that they do in ordi- nary, normal, peaceful times—that is, that they travel by safer instead of more dangerous means, by neutral or American boats. In other words, to ap- ply your own great American maxim, sorry, “Safety First.’ “We had -hoped Washington would see its way clear to co-operate in that. Germany has offered to continue its willingness to meet the American Gov- ernment in every practical and possible way to assure the safety of Americans and other neutrals. “Germany does, however,” the official said emphatically, “insist that no neu- tral Power can justly,*on the one hand, recognize the submarine as a legal arm in naval war; and on the other hand impose restrictions and conditions by application of the usage or law created for other times or other ages, which make it practically impossible to use this legal arm: Cites Lansing’s Ruling. “Mr, Lansing says the submarine is a legal arm of sea warfare, and in the next breath in effect says that armed merchant ships may attack submarines as pirates. “To use a German phrase, that is ‘Biting one’s self in the tall.’ “Let me say with all emphasis that we seek no trouble with America. We want none. We have shown oyr good will and will continue to do so, and will do everything to maintain friendly relations with America except give up our chances of winning the war. That cannot be asked.” This official expressed tne belief that an understanding with Washington was by no means impossible. The situation as viewed from here is best described by persons in official circles close to the government as being a veritable ‘‘I*ex- enkesel” or “Witches caldron of con- fusion.” It is stated that no definite information has been received from 1 cape cna but it would appear that the Lusitania «ase is practically settled.

The war profits measure is divided into two sections. The sectian for individuals takes the form of a grad- uated tax on property increment be- tween Jan. 1, 1914 and 1917. The tax commences with 5 per cent.upon the first 20,000 marks ($5000), 6 per cent on the next 30,000 marks ($7500) and then rising in successive stages to 25 per cent increases over 500,000 marks ($175,000). A direct tax upon increased in- comes is avoided largely owing to objections, .it Is said, made by indi- vidual states of the empire in which the income tax is reserved, but by an ingenious subterfuge, when an in- crease in the amount of property is accompanied by a correspondingly increased income, mainly, when prop- erty increment represents hoardings from-an increased income, the rate of taxation is doubled. It is admitted that this will re- dound to the advantage of lavish spenders, who live up to their war profits, but it is said that this is un- avoidable. In order to checkmate various de- vices of tax dodgers, it is provided that gifts to children and others and money invested abroad during the war must be reported to the wuthor- ities. Individuals, who have been putting away their profits in jewelry, paint- ings and other articles of art o” luxury, which as personal propert, heretofore have escaped taxatie ., must return them at their purchase value. As a further measure against tax dodgings, persons moving out in the country or attempting to sené abroad before the date of the collection, may be forced to de- posit with the authorities enough to cover the tax: A jail penalty is pro- vided for offenders: ‘he corporation tax on war-time profits starts with 10 per cent on the additional yearly profits made during the war as compared with the ante bellum profits, when this additional profit does not exceed 2 per cent of the corporation’s capital stock. It rises to 30 per cent when the addi- tional profits exceed 20 per cent of the capital, ST. LOUIS ANNUALLY GIVES $1,800,000 TO CHARITY WORK Excluding Catholic and Jewish Socte- ties, 75 Institutions Receive $975,000. St. Louis makes an annual contribu- tion of $975,000 to 75 charitable and phil- anthropie institutions, according to a report issued yesterday by J. D. Lynn, secretary of the Charities Committee of the Business Men’s League. Including the Catholic Charities, which are under the jurisdiction of the Archbishop, and the Jewish charities, the total sum con- tributed for charitable work in St. Louis amounts to $1,800,000 a year, Lynn said. The Charities Committee of the league has undertaken the work of driving un. worthy charitable organizations from St. Louis, The committee is sending to ev- cry member of the league a booklet which contains the name, and in some instances the officers and receipts and expenditures, of every charitable organl- zation in St. Louis, which the committee considers worthy of public support.

It doesn’t do much good to try te brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis- solve it, then you destroy it entirely, To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; 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 dandraiff will be gone, ‘and ‘three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy overy single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store.

It long hag been the custom for the Senate and House to adopt “sense” resolutions and oc- casionally both bodies join in one of these expressions. In all caseg except when the unusual is transpiring abroad, determined efforts have been made by the party leaders to prevent the discussion and adop- tion of such resolutions. It has been realized that no matter how harmless in appearance thege resolutions may be, ill-feeling is created and misunderstandings result. Leaders in Congress understand how the Gore resolution could be misinterpreted and misconstrued abroad. Relations with Russia have never been the same as they were before Congress adopted resolutions ex- pressing the sense that Jews were not well treated and should be given better status. ‘Turkey's feeling for the United States was unfavorably affected becatise of similar expres- sion concerning Atrmenians. eee SENATE IS 71 AGAINST AND 94 FOR GORE RESOLUTION Poll Shows Opposition Includes 33 Democrats ani 38 Republicans— Vote Is the Same On Jones Proposal. & Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch.

The great activity in the Ypres salient during the last fortnight, the dispatch says, was really in the nature cf a diver- sion, If the Germans had found it possi- ble to push beyond the international trenches, the fighting would have as- Surmed the proportions of another battle cf the Ypres. | The defense, however, was too strong to be swept through. Re- garded as a feint, the operation failed cimply because the British general staff was not deceived as to its true charac- ter. Is It Worth the Price? The Germans probably improved their position southeast of Ypres and before Givenchy. Whether these im- provements are worth the price paid is another matter. “Probably,” the correspondent States, “thére is not_a clear concep- tion at home of the present phase on this front. People may be saying that although there is talk of our ability to take German first line trenches whenever we like, we never do so, but that the Germans occupy a bit of our front line whenever they make up their minds to do so. “The explanation lies right on the surface. The British army is not at- tacking yet. It may be necessary to develop a counter stroke occasion-~ ally and, of course, it is always nec- essary to go on wasting enemy life diligently by every possible means of trench attrition. But this leaves the gcneral strategic scheme unchanged. “The Germans, on the other hand, are attacking because they feel the vital urgency for so doing. It is reasonable to cenclude that the price they pay for such tactics is infinitely higher than the price they exact from the defense. If one side attacks the other suddenly un- der conditions of normal dispositions of | troops, it probably will capture some /iength of trenches, Such a& consequence may not sufficiently affect the local sit- vation to call for a vigorous response.

Killoren, 4 years old, a laborer, of 6329 Baston avenue, was sen- tenced to 10 years tn the penitentiary in Judge Kimmel’s court yesterday, aft- er pleading guilty to second degree murder. Killoren shot and killed Joseph Miley, 31 years old, a teamster, Oct. 22. last, In the stables of the Hunkins-Wil- lis Lime and Cement Co., Eighteenth and Austin streets. A charge of first degree murder was placed against Killoren and he went to trial Friday. Testimony showed that he went to the stable and asked. for “Miley. A moment later Miley came itn ang was asked by Killoren if his name was Joseph Miley. Upon his replying in the affirmative Killoren drew a re- volver and shot him through the heart. Tt wae also brought out that Kil- loren’s act was due to a belief that Miley was friendly with Mrs. Killoren, who was living apart from her husband and with whom Miley bearded Kki1- leren had also heard that Miley use’ profane language in the presence of Mamie, his 12-year-old daughter.

Table, $34.75 AND ACTS ROLE OF CANIO FINELY Forced to Repeat Aria at Close of Last Performance of San Carlo Company. BY RICVARD L, STOKES. HE San Carlo Opera Company's + final performance, last night at the Odeon, of its two weeks of popular-priced opera, was distinguished by Manuel Salazar’s remarkable singing and acting of the role of Canio in “I Pagliacci.”": Old opera goers .expressed the opinion that his rendition of the favorite tenor aria, ‘‘Recitar, mentre preso dal delirio,’’ was equal vocally and superior in dramatic intensity to any heard in this city for a long while. As happened in Salazar’s performance of the role of Don Jose in “‘Carmen,”’ he was able to make the audience forget that he was merely acting the part, and compelled it to believe that he was in reality the broken-hearted mountebank. The racking sobs and bitter laughter of his big aria did not seem the pretense of the stage, but the overpowering grief of actuality. However, he portrayed this role, so susceptible to overacting and “‘lachrymose sentimentality, with a fine restraint which added to its poig- nant effect. An unusual ovation rewarded his in- terpretation of the aria. The curtain descended, and the applause continued. The director of the orchestra and the musicians began filing out; and the handclapping redoubled. The lights of the auditorium were turned on; and shouts burst forth all over the house. Then the lights were turned out, the musicians returned to their places, and Salazar sang his song again, and even better than the first time. Handicapped in Both Operas. Hie also sang the part of Turridu in “Cavalieria Rusticana,’’ and in both operas was handicapped by the inade- quacy of the singers who played oppo- site him—Elda Vettori in the Mascagni work, and Myrna Sharlow in Leoncaval- lo’'s most famous opera. Miss Vettori’s voice again-proved- tmequal to the dra- matic demands of Santuzza's score: Miss Sharlow was tolerable vocally as Nedda, but her acting was stiff and wooden, Angelo Antola repeated last week’s triumph in the part of Tonio in “I Pag- liazeci,”” and won an encore by his sing- ing of the Prologue.

Shoppers in the downtown district have shown keen interest during the last few days in the Bakst window in the Stix, Baer & Fuller store in which some of the unusual designs of this famous Russian artist are displayed upon life- sized figures in the midst of surround- ings of Oriental magnificence. Bakst is the artist who designed the costumes used in the Ballet Russe which has captivated the critics in all the cit- ies where it has appeared as yet and whose arrival in St. Louis is eagerly awaited by all admirers of art. The dar- ing designs of the Russian have pro- vided an influence that is being felt greatly in all lines of dress. In his cos- tumes he makes a use of metals with a lavishness that is ail but barbaric. In the drapery section of the store is reproduced one of the scenes from the Ballet Russe with costumes from the original Bakst designs. The surround- ings are Oriental in which brilliant hues run riot in rugs, draperies and other accessories. WOMAN AGITATOR” SENTENCED LONDON, Feb. 26.—Mrs. Nellie Best, secretary of the Women’s Anti- Conscription League, was sentenced today to six months’ imprisonment in the Westminster Police Court for cir- culating literature urging men not to enlist. The scenes in the court were reminiscent of the trials of militant suffragettes. Women sympathizers of Mrs. Best made a great outcry when sentence was imposed.

Face finally Broubsard terway measure, which would approp $60,000,000 annually, probably will be taken as the basis for an agreement on that. Under the plan there would be cre- ated a “waterway commission,” con- sisting of the President, the Secretaries of War, Interior, Agriculture and Com- merce and the chairman of the Board of River Regulation. Chairmen of the Interstate Commerce Commission and Isthmian Canal Commission are pro- posed as members exofficio.

Ali features of river and Inland water- ways regulation would be placed in the commission’s hands, including hydro- electro power devclopment, confining tne navigable rivers to their channels by means of levees and the prevention of which would include continuing annual appropriations, was agreed upon today ; as a general policy to be recommended to the President in a conference be- tween Cabinet officials and a committee of Senators. Secretaries Houston and Redfield, whe were named by the President with for- mer Secretary Garrison to investigate ihe problem, and Senators Newlands, Broussard and Ransdell, participated in the conference, The policy agreed upon i. is believed will be recommended to Congress by President Wilson in the near future. The agreement proposes that there shall be given special immediate atten- tion to the lower Mississippi River be. low Cairo and that ap roximately $10,- 00,000 shall be approprfated for 1917 for this project. In accepting this proposal! the advocates of levee appropriations were won over to the general commis- sion policy. What annual river and harbor im- be recommended was deforestation and sofl erosion.

But people often fall to get the strength out of their food be- cause they haver.’t enough iron in their blood ‘to enable it to change food into living «matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something is wrong, but they can’t tell what, so they generally commence doctoring for stomach, liver or kidney trouble or .ymp- toms of some other ailment caused by the lack of iron in the blood.

CHICAGO, Feb. 26.—To save his wife and himself from gossip, Dr. Lester Long, young physician, performed three iliegal operations on the wife, the last of which resuited in’ her death last night, according to a statement Long inade to the police today. Dr. Long married Miss Helen M. Tur- rer, daughter of Circuit Judge ©. M. ‘“urner, of Cambridge, Ill. He sobbed in his cell at a police station today as he admitted that he had operated on his Wife because the stork was coming soon. ‘‘We were married only at Christmas. We couldn’t face the gossips at Tou- lon, where I lived, and at Cambridge, her home,” Dr. Long said, the police ceclared. Long was zraduated from North- western University last year and «as an interne at a local hospital: Judge Turner came here today from Cambridge and. visited his son-in-law at the poiice station. The young interne, his eyes swollen with weeping, his face haggard, stared for a moment at his father-in-law. Then he rushed forward impulsively, sobbing and clutched the cider man's arms with both hands. “I’m sorry,” he cried, “I’m sorry.” Judge Turner sought to comfort his son-in-law, patting him on the shoulder. He said he had nothing but sympathy for the young man. He avoided men- tioning the tragedy.and suggested that arrangements be made to take the body to Cambridge. Long acquiesced readily. Long was held on a charge of man- slaughter by a Coroner's jury ani his bond fixed at $5000. neal ee — I Neen eee ic ma Says who sees it. jo Player- os some struction; show them and the ment is splendid instrument appeals par- to those, who have bought before — who know t of their principles of con- these are the want to examine this latest model SMITH & BARNES.

New York ss coca a po yore ~ Rent Ay NEW YORI, Feb. 27 (Sunday).— The World this morning prints the replies of 20 members of the Repub- lican Nationa? Committee, and 32 members of the Progressive Nationa! Committee, to telegrams of inquiry as to their attitude toward Elihu Root Republican nominee for the The inquiries were seyt the notable speech Republican has been Re- as the presidency. out, following made by Root at the State convention, which taken as a “keynote” speech by publicans throughout the country. Of the 20 Republican committee- men who replied to the inquiry, 1% were highly favorable to Senator Root as a candidate, one was nonconi- mittal, and two were sceptical as to his strength with the voters Cf the 32 Progressive committee- men who replied, all but three ex- pressed opposition to Root, and in- dicatde the belief that -those who voted for Roosevelt in 1912 would not support Root this year. Most of the Progressives referred to Root’s part in the Chicago conventicn of 1912 as still being resented by those against whom Root ruled as chairman. Those who commended his recent speech added that he was merely say- ing the things which Col. Roosevelt had said before him. Outspoken Against Root. The only Republican committeeman who makes an outspoken expression against Root is Henry G. Wasson of Pennsylvania. His objection is that Root could not get the Progressive vote back into the Republican party, and hence could not win. R. B, Howell of Nebraska says Root “would evoke no enthusiasm.” W. P. Jackson of Maryland is noncommit- tal. P. D. Barker, Republican committee- man from Alabama, eulogizes Root as “the greatest living American.’’ Hubert Work of Colorado says Root would command public confidence in interna- tional questions. Henry Jackson of Georgia says, ‘I join all Republicans in the high esteem in which they hold Elihu Root,”’ but says nothing more defi- nite 1s to his candidacy. Roy O. West of Illinois says: ‘I con- sider Senator Root one of the country’s greatest men. He would make an ad- mirable President. I believe, however, the Illinois delegation will support Sen- ator Sherman's candidacy.’ West is the only one who makes definite mention of a state ‘“‘favorite son.” John W. McCullech of Kentucky says Root would poll the full Republican vote and would attract a large support from cther parties. Franklin Murphy of New Jersey says, “I have been in favor of Root for President for years. I am for him now, when the country needs him more than ever. In my opinion there is no other man who can serve the country so ably or with whom the honor of the nation would be so safe.”’ H. DL. Maxson of Nevada says Root told him recently that “under no cir- cumstances would he be a candidate for President.’’ He adds that Root has the confidence and admiration of the lead- ing Republicans of the West. Oregon Man for Root. R. E. Williams of Oregon says Root wouid satisfy Pacific Coast Republicans. C. H. Burke of South Dakota says Root could win if he were nominated, and Newell Sanders of Tennessee says he would be a great President. H. F. Mc- Gregor of Texas says Texans would sacrifice their personal choice, under the prevailing conditions, to vote for Root, in view of the needs of the country. Senator Reed Smoot, national com- mitteeman for Utah, says: “Taking un- der consideration the questions that wil] have to be met by the national admin- istration, there is no man in America better prepared or more capable of meet- ing them than ex-Senator Root.” Earle S. Kinsley of Vermont speaks of Root as the greatest American statesman, and says Vermont would sive him a-large majority. Alvah H. Martin of Virginia says he is advo- cating an uninstructed delegation, but that he knows of no one better fitted for the presidency than Root. S. A. , Perkins of Washington speaks of Root as one of the greatest of American statesmen. V. L. Highland of West Virginia expresses the hope that the party may unite on Root, and George E. Peyton of Wyoming says “Root would get more votes from the thinking people of all parties than any other candidate.”’ The only members of the Progressive National Committee who made expres- sions favorable to Root were J. F..Cleve- land of Arizona and P. L. Flannigan of Nevada. Cleveland replied that he con- sidered Root one of the ablest of states- men, and good presidential material, but that he belicved either Roosevelt or Hughes would be representative of a greater number of Americans. Flanni- gan says Root is a great man, but that the West is for Roosevelt. B. F. Bridge of Mississippi does not mention Root in his reply; which says that he is for “Roosevelt, Hughes, or any good man that loves America, to beat Wilson.”’ The other Progressives who replied are outspoken against Root. Medill McCormick of Illinois says Root could not be elected. R. G. Leeds of Indiana says he is too old (his Tist birthday Was the lith of this month), and that he is incapable of understanding the progressive spirit of the times, William Flynn of Pennsylvania says Root, with his record, cannot qualify for Progres- sive support. Joseph M. Dixon of Mon- tana suggests that Root would make “a better Secretary of State in the cabinet of Theodore Roosevelt.” N. W. Wil- liams of Maryland makes the same sug- gestion. Cecil A. Lyon of Texas says Progressives could not consistently sup- port Root. Irving R. Kirkwood of Kansas City, committeeman for ‘Mis. | souri, says Root’s record at the Chi- | ie te —- } cago conyéntion disqualifies him sul. (.0.P LEADERS John J. Sullivan of Ohio says he its for Theodore E. Burton, The other Progressives who made re- plies which were unfavorable to Root, or which were so full of Roosevelt that Root was not mentioned, were J. O. Thompson of Alabama, C. H. Rowell of California, I. M. DeLong of Colorado, P. Il.. Anderson of Florida, H. G. Has- tings of Georgia, J. M. Ingersoll of Ida- ho, Leslie Combs of Kentucky, M. D. Furdy of Minnesota, Nathan Merriam of Nebraska, William Savacoo] of New Hampshire, I. K. Taylor of New Jersey. A. Y. Moore of North Dakota, G. C. Priestly of Oklahoma, H. W. Coe of Oregon, BE. F. Tuttle of Rhode Island, T. H. Wanamaker of'\South Carolina, G. Y. Taylor of Tennessee, Moroni Heiner of Utah, H. N. Jackson of Ver- mont, Lorenzo Dow of Washington and R. D. Carey of Wyoming.

At the meeting in three weeks action will be taken to clear up the small indebtedness re- maining and all other details which were proposed today. George Stovall, manager of _ the hansas City Federals, met the Fed- eral League club owners and received assurance from Harry Sinclair and others that “he would be taken care of.” It was reported that a place would be found for Stovall in one of the big leagues.

As a result it was virtually a new team that opposed Coach Midkiff’s newly assembled squad. Leffler Quits Team. The South Siders could net. cope with the Cleveland team’s play in the opening period and when the team left the floor; it was on the under end of the scofé, 19 to 13. Evi- dently this irritated the McKinley tossers. because they were grumbling. Coach Callan said something, probably Uncomplimentary, to Leffler and the player answer the coach. There was ua wordy war for a few moments lan to turn in his esvit ‘eave the floor. He was relieved by La Mont, Yeatman ahd Mc tiu.e, night. Should Yeatman win. will be tied for the lead and a play-off gaine necessary. Consequentiv, with Leffler out of the fray. the crimson-hosed lads may lose out on the title honors, unless Palmer and Conzelman recover in time to get into the game, The Central High five ¢ompleteiy out- classed the So'danr team in the second game. Forwards Ne'sou and McElwee’ were shooting in splendid form, the former tallying 14 and the latter 17 points. Sweltzer and Strauss at center divided eight points between them. Despite the fact that Forward Smith of the losers played a clever game, the West End- ers were unable to cope with their midcity rivals.

When it came time for Jimmy Mitchen of New York to enter the ring to box “Sailor” Jerabek at the South Broadway Athletic Club last night, he was declared by Doctor E., A. Scott, the club’s medical director, to be so tinder the influence of li- quor and with a stomach so filled with food that it would be dangerous for him to keep his engagement with Jerabek. Mitchen protested and asked for an examination by another pnysician, whereupon Doctor Clarence M.

He advised that Mitchen should not-be permitted to £0 on with the bout. Tommy Brammel, who has béen looking after Mitchen’s affairs since the New. York boxer came to town.

Nehf, Rudolph, Hughes, Tyler, Ragon, Knetzer Allen and Barnes should be good men with Evers at their back. This club, with Evers, looks like the class of the league. *New York is the ‘dark horse,’ in my estimation. I don’t pick them because of Kauff’s presence on’ the club, however.

An@erson, they tell me, is good enough to win, Stroud ‘is fairly reliable, while there‘s the chance that Matty may be avaliable for finishes. This is,a.goo0d team, my idea of the league's dark horse. “Chicago is an enigma.

Wilson, manager service tire de- partment, states that letters are being received every day from all sections of the country, containing expressions of satisfaction that both the product and the selling plan are right. “These big pneumatics, which range in size from 36x6 to 42x9,"" says Mr. Wil- son, “have been put to the most rigor- ous tests of the show-me kind and everywhere have emerged triumphant. We are the ‘pioneers in introducing a big pneumatic tire for automobile trucks and have necessarily had to blaze our own way—and the way for others. At first real selling effort was required to introduce them, but now that they have vindicated themselves, their sale has been greatly accelerated. Their fleld is rapidly developing. Nearly every truck manufacturer in the country will now honor specifications for our big pneu- matics. “More depends upon the tire equlp- ment of a truck than has been heret | fore recognized. Some, appreciatin e ‘value of extra cushioning in deaden- [ing vibration, the deadliest enemy to | the life of a truck, have been using dual |} pneumatics on the rear wheels. But the ‘satisfaction with the service received ‘from them has been far from complete. | The large pneumatic has many advan- 'tages over dual equipment.” | “Phe maintenance of equal air pres- ‘sure in dual tires has been difficult, and -the removal of the inner tire in case ‘of tire trouble has been the bane of ltruck owners. Their susceptibility to |! puncture under the heavy loads carried ‘has also been one of the disadvantages to contend with. All these are triumph- ‘antly overcome by the large pneumatic.”’ ‘FRANKLIN IN NEW HOME The Franklin Automobile: and Supply Co., long at 1527 North Grand avenue, has just been incorporated by Dr. § ' Klein, George Gruenwald and Mrs. Kiein, and will shortly remove to 3009 Locust street, where a building is being erected for the company’s use.

A ana Be CA SHORTAGE BRINGS ~ RAILROAD “GONDOLA” The shortage of automobile freight cars has given rise to numerous emer- gency measures originated by the traf- fic departments of automobile compa- nies. Charles Shaar, traffic manager of the Packard: Motor Car Co. has par- tially solved the problem by the erec- tion of sturdy superstructures on rail- read ‘‘gondolas.” These housings on flat-cars protect the shipments prac- —_ as well as the regular snlomopes a tratght cate” When the covered PES reaches its Jestination the dealer is instructed to bill the superstructure back as a car- ‘toad of lumber, tar paper, etc., which it really is. In this way the car is returned quickly to the factory and can ‘be used for other shipments. At Manchester, N.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—The Grid- iron Club, tonight, at its second dinner of the winter, projected itself into the convention activities of next June and helped a distinguished party of presi- dential makers and candidates board trains for Chicago and St. Louis to meet the fates awaiting them there. In a make-believe railway station the actor members of the club satirized the foibles of some of their guests and some well-known men. who were not pres- ent. President Wilson was among those who looked on and he may have re- ceived an intimation of the opposition he will meet later in the year. Vice- Fresident Marshal], the Secretaries of State, Navy and Interior, the Brazilian Ambassador, the Chinese and Bolivian Ministers, several members of the Sen- ate and House, officers of the army and navy, and a number of the most nota- ble figures in the nation’s financial and industrial life were present. The most ambitious of several sketches presented by the club was the political ene. Scrambles to make trains, strange traveling companions and ticket com- plexities that confomnded the railway gatemen offered extraordinary oppor- tunities for fun making. Passing through the Chicago gate were regular and pro- gressive Republicans, characters repre- senting former Senators Burton and Beveridge, former Vice President Fair- gon banks, Senators Sherman, Borah, Cum- mins, Weeks and Penrose, Representa- tive Cannon, former President Roose- velt, William Barnes and George W., Perkins of New York. Through the St. Louis gate passed Secretary Mc- Adoo, Postmaster-General Burleson, Charles F. Murphy of New York and William Jennings Bryan. A Shot at Senator Burton. The first passenger to reach the Chi- cago train was recognized by one of the two gatemen as Senator Burton. Nervous and fussed, he inquired if he were too late, and appeared greatly re- lieved when told that he was “leading the parade.” ‘You won't be too late till you get to Chicago,”’ he was informed as the gate- man punched his ticket. Next came a passenger for St. Louis, who was hailed as Secretary McAdoo. He produced a weird looking ticket, finally recognized as mileage, which the gateman examined laboriously. Mut- tering that it seemed ‘“‘as complicated as shipping bill,’’ the gateman asked if a ike hadn’t beeh made. Its intrica- .cies were explained by methods of addi- tion and subtraction and the passenger } passed through grinning.. The gatemian, “pal apes that recovering, remarked to his “That wasn’t no railroad ticket; was today’s treasury statement.” Among the next batch of passengers was a tall, heavy-set man, carrying a broken plank under his arm, who tried Ito crowd though the St. Louis gate- way. “Hey, gateman, reads for years old.”’ “T knew it!’’ shouted the passenger, who resembled Champ Clark. “Bill Hearst told me to try to work it off. but the darn ticket never was any good.”’ Mr. Speaker,”’ expostulated the “this ticket ain’t no good. It Baltimore. And it’s four} Champ Quotes T. R. The Speaker finally got through on ‘Missouri mileage,” but the plank be- came wedged in the gateway. As he tried to disengage it, he explained that i. “eame out yf the Baltimore cyclone,”’ end was the last surviving bit of the one-term plank. They asked him what good it was, and he replied that he was “merely following T. R.’s advice—‘learn to swim, but always carry a life pre- server.’ ’’ Vice President Marshall, extremeiy nervous, was closely followed by Sena- tor Lewis of Illinois. “TJ ought to be nervous,”’ he explained. “He follows me all the time. He fol- iowed me up to the rostrum in the Sen- ate today and almost sat in the chair.” Former Vice President Fairbanks, dis- playing a handfull of tickets for a group of delegates ‘locked up in the baggage car” of the Chicago special came next. He wanted to leave a few more tickets for any stray delegates who “might relish a little transporta- tion.”” He was closely followed by two men described by one of the guards in a stage whisper, as “the two wickedes: men in the world—Uncle Joe Cannon and Boisey Penrose.’’ The impersona.- tor of Senator Penrose asked: “Is this the regular train?’’ and was assured by the gateman that “everything is regu- lar this year.”” Penrose wanted to know if the gateman had seen anyone by the name of Roosevelt hanging around. “T heard he was going,’’ the Senator “T RR, did me a great favor made some _ speeches for mused, cnee—he Pinchot.” “Uncle Joe,”"" urging the Senator to hurry, asked if he expected to pay Mr. Roosevelt's fare. “I’m willing—if he'll use the ticket} I buy,” was the answer. ki Senator Weeks came along with af great bag which he said was full of fi New England delegates. He was told to check it, but warned not to let Sam McCall know where he put the check. Next came a’ passenger, greeted as Gen. Burleson, dangling a string of dummies which he referréd & to as postmasters. They caused the} gateman to wonder if “Gen. Burleson [) had adopted Frank Hitchcock's chil- ' dren.” Col. Roosevelt was followed - by George W. Perkins, and they made a great commotion, Perkins was car- rying a bag, which he said was so light it kept flying out of his hands. The gateman asked what was in it. “Ephraim’'s diet,” replied the bogus Loosevelt. “I'm going to feed it to the Republicans.” The gateman pointed out that Col.

In doing so he called attention to prepar- ations being made throughout the t’nited ‘States for a general observance of the week so as to call public atten- tion to the great loss of life among in- fants that might be prevented by proper precautionary measures, The Mayor urged that during week St. Louisans give to the matter of preventable infant mortality, their thoughtful consideration. The Woman's Council of St. Louis has made extensive plans for the ob- servance of Baby week. Boy Scouts have agreed to canvass the city with literature telling about. the care of babies and leave a small American flag in each house where there is a baby under the age of three years. Parents are to be asked to have the flag dis- played in a window during the week. At. the headquarters of the council, 308 North Eighth street, free lectures upon the care of babies will be given daily by physicians, under the direction of the Medical Society.

pa ev *¥ Mie DON’T LET ‘SPOIL ‘YOUR HAIR SOAP When you wash your hair, be care- ful what you use. Most soaps and pp contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it : dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It’s very cheap, and ts the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in} about a teaspoonful is al] that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han- dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dan- druff.— ADV, .

Miss Annie Brazis, 19 years old, of 1311 North Twentieth street, died Fri- day afternoon at the city hospital from starvation resulting from constriction of her esophagus, caused by lye which she accidentally swallowed Dec. 30. Her esophagus was constricted in three places. She was unable to swallow food and her only sustenance was milk, taken a few drops at a time. The physicians cured two of the constric- tions, but could not reach the third: By that time the girl had lost 80 pounds in weight. Five days ago an operation was performed. The third constriction was removed and sustenance was sup- plied through a catheter, but her life could not be saved.

Wallace, President of the Samuel Cupples Wood- enware. Co., said the management of Cupples Station would prefer that the general shipping public should not use the station. Wallace’s tesiimony was given at an Interstate Commerce Commission hear- ing based on a complaint by the Mce- Pheeters Warehouse Co. and others that the Wabash and the Chicago & Alton Railroads are granting discriminatory freight handling service to tenants of the Cupples Block. The complaining warehouse companies put several witnesses on the stand, but the burden of their testimony was that the Cupples Station had a- freight handling equipment which they could not compete. No Policy of Exelusion. Wallace testified that until 1908 no fa- cilities were provided for shippers who were not tenants of the block, but he said it had never veen the policy rv the station to exclude outside shippers. In 1908, after the passage of Elkins anti- trust law, a surface platform was co"- structed in the Cupples Block for the use of the general public. Wallace described this platform as being located across the width of «a 60-foot street and said it would afferd accomomdations for five wagons if they “were backed in to the platform. Asked if the arrangements at Cup- les Station made it an unusually de- sirable place for tenants, Wallace said the Cupples Wvoodenware Co. paid a renta] of 20 cents a square foot for its space in the Cupples block, while its rental payments fur other property out- side the block was 12 cents to 15 cents a square foot. The freight facilities, he said, vorth more money. Wallace said he believed that if the burden of trucking and elevating the freight were put upon Cupples Station instead of the raiirvads, it would be nec- essary for Washington University to cffset this expense by charging higher rents. with We are offering the NO MONEY DOWN $1 A WEEK : Pianos originally selling for Property in Unique Position. $350, $400, $500, $650, $700 Isaac A. Hedges, manager of the Cup- ples Station property, testified that Washington University owns property in $100, $110, $115, $125 and St Louis to the amount of $10,000,000 or $150.

When asked regarding the value of the land at Cupples Station, Hedges re- plied that the plot of ground, 4009x1200 feet, occupies: a unique position at the mouth of the Terminal tunnel. He said there is no similar site in St. Louis and he did not know of a site with the same advantages in any other city. He said that all land value depends upon its availability for the service for which it is required. While the heart of the city might change, he said, it is un- likely that the value of terminal facil- ities will change.

Mackley asked if one of the big shippers now a resident of Cupples Station were not within the buildings included in the _ station property, would the railroads give the outsider the same service.

He was asked why there was not a common platform for all, and he answered that the platform was arranged so that the freight could be handled with most convenience, and that the doors of the residents of Cupples Station were arranged sv that the freight could be handled. with least trouble. Facilities Cost Great Sum. He was asked if the trucking of freight by the railroads did not go beyond the platform precincts under jlease by the roads, and he replied that ‘they did not. He said the roads ele- . | vated the freight to the higher levels | J from,the rails to designated doors, ' }where truckmen for the shippers re- ceived it. : Simmons said the walis of the bulldings were the lines of demarca- tion that showed where the platform service ended. Simmons admitted that jw ahipper in Cupples Station had some ‘advantage over one who was not ad- jacent to the railroad tracks, but he asserted that it was an advantage that ‘was overbalanceg by the fact that he was paying extra in rentals for the superior facilities that Cup- ples Station offered, which facilities, « [he said, had cost an immense amount "of money, made the Cupples block space’ a eee . 2 ret LF, 58 ho hee gtd ae Ng ey eR ete is ' 9 See aa oF SE MEARS, 2 ORAS 9 Shoe e.

The buildings, which will be used ex- clusively in the sale of tires and auto- mobiles, will be built in a U shape around an immense central court. The center building, which will be known as the Bittel-Leftwich build- ing, will have a frontage of 158 feet and will provide quarters for all the depart- ments of the home office. The two side buildings will take the names of the automobile companies vhich lease them. These will be 50 feet wide and will have a length of approximately 115 feet. The interior of the two side buildings will be altered to conform with the require- ments of the lessees. Over the front ends of the two side buildings, there will G. be located on each side nine offices, exceptionally large and airy, which will be subletted to reputablé firms or phy- sicians will sustain the hfgh character of the neighborhood. In line with the front of the two side buildings will be a gasoline station lo- cated in the central front of the court and bullt sufficiently low. so that. it will not interfére with the pictiire of the whole block... This will give the gaso- line company occupying this space de- cided advantages with the car owners. The ground-floor plan of the Bittel- Leftwich building, includes many novel ideas and the builder has made it a point to consider users’ needs. The main-court will accommodate 60 | “" » Fiske =. eutomobiles at a time, thereby eliminat- ing the practice of changing tires on the street. There is also a canopy, W feet wide, on one side of the court, under vhich cars may be driven in rainy weather. " The drive for the 25 service cars owned by the company will be separated from the public parking space of the court by means of a seven-foot granitoid walk. The buildings will be fireproof, of reinforcel cor-rete and steel con- struction. The exterior of the buildings is of “German medievel’ design, finished in brick, terra cotta and stucco, with a slate roof. The interior of the sales and show rooms. will be finished in quarter- sawed oak, and there will be a central heating plant, as well as a plant for generating electricity. The cost will be approximately $100,- 0. Plans and specifications were pre- pared by and the construction will be under the supervision of Clymer & Drischler, architects. p NN sex Court apartment, at 5530 Delmar boulevard. Eugene J.

WEST ENDSHLES PRESHGE LIVELY North Parkview. Undivided In- terest Section Promised Many Apartments, Agent Harris Says. O’REILLY BUYS HOME SITE Ames Place, Hillcrest and Neigh- bor Subdivisions Figure Largely in Favor of Home Builders. Spasmodic purchases in the outlying! districts west of Skinker road presage a notable renewal of activity in this sec- tion of the St. Louis realty market dur- ing the ensuing spring. North Parkview addition, Hillcrest, Ames Place, West Portland Place, Mary- land Terrace, University Heights and Forsythe Place obviously are on the calendar for. new high records. North Parkview addition, according to John 8S. Harris, who has been ap- pointed to wind up the undivided interest of this subdivision, is engaging the at- tention of private as well as professional operators. As the only unrestricted tract west of ‘Skinker road, North Parkview is in de- inand for apartment building projects. A recent sale of a corner in this addition cxemplitfies the speculative advantages of operations in that class of property when eligibly located. Big Profit on One Corner Holding. The corner in question was purchased three years ago, when the tract was first presented, by three young men who, after paying the taxes and other car- rying charges, disposed of it at a profit of more than $2500, the corner being one of the most desirable in the subdivision for an apartment building. Negotiations are pending with Harris for the purchase of several sites in the tract, which have been selected for large apartments. Inidentally, Harris disposed of two of a group of houses on the north side of the tract erected by the Delmar Im- provement Co., the owner of the land. North Parkview addition, which iies on the north side of Delmar boulevard, jist west of Skinker road and which is fully improved, is being built up with handsome apartment structures. Sales of lots, as well as houses, were a feature of the week in Hillcrest, all indications pointing to a larger spring end summer in this addition. This tract lies on the west line of For- est Park and of Skinker road, the itm- provement of this highway now being under way. Buys Site for Handsome Home. Gerald B. O'Reilly, president of the M. B. O’Reilly Real Estate Co., and formerly president of the St. Louis Real Estate Exchange, has purchased a lot on Berlin avenue, in Ames Place, and has plans for the erection of a hand- some home, Mr. and Mrs. O'Reilly now live at the Warwick Hotel at Fif- teenth and Locust streets. The sale of the Ames Place lot was effected by Elmore Cave & Co. The Mississippi Valley Trust Co., agent for the tract, it is understood, also sold several lots in Ames Place to intending builders. Sales in West Portland place and in Maryland terrace were also brisk for the season. Francisous & Kunz have completed a series of high-grade seven-room houses in Forsyth place, at the horthwest cor- ner of Forsyth boulevard and Penn- syivania avenue. The. buildings are ex- citing decided interest on the part of homeseekers, the site overlooking Wash- ington. University and being otherwise attractive. All the aforementioned additions ex- cept North Parkview are restricted, in the majority of instances, no costing less than $5000 being admissible.

ID you ever hear of a city called Antwerp? There is such a city in the world, and that’s where we are going. How do we come to Antwerp? Why, my brother Elihu’s father-in-law, Jonah the baker, is going to America, by way of Antwerp. When my sister-in-law Brocha heard that her father is in Antwerp she began to break her neck to get us to go by way of Antwerp, too. Before, she didn’t even want to hear of the city. The name did not suit her! But now she has fallen in love with Antwerp! Our chum Pini says he will have to part with us. He prefers to go from Vienna direct to London. Something is pulling him, he says, to London. London, he Says, smacks already of America: Englishmen * * * yellow hair * * * checked trousers * * * It’s an altogether different world! “Just go, in good health, to your Englishmen with their checked hair and yellow trousers, and we will go to America by way of Antwerp.” So my sister-in-law Brocha says, and Pini’s wife Taibel swells up liké a turkey. I have told you, I think, that she has such a habit. At the least little thing she swells up and stops talking. Pini asks her: “What makes you so mad?” So she answers she hates English- men. Says Pini to her: “Then you know them? Where have you seen an Englishman?” Says she: “Well, where have you seen an Englishman?” To make a long story short we are all going to America by way of Antwerp. I don’t care as long as we go to America. Ouf chum Pini and I—both of us—are thirsting for America, more than all the others. We feel that in America the world will be ours. Pini complains to my brother Elihu. He says: “We travel and travel and are still in the same place.” So —lihu says to him: “Well, who is holding you? Go! run! fiy!” Says Pini: “How can I fly when your mother wants to get acquainted with all the committees in the whole world?” * * * My mamma hears this and says to Pini: “If you are really such a smart Aleck then you advise me: How can we get to America without bedding?” * * .* This holds Pini for a while and they soon make up. UR chum Pini can’t part with us. The women, too, could never live without each other. It’s true they quarrel quite often: they speak daggers to each other. Sometimes they almost: come to blows. But they soon make up. If it were not for my mamma the friendship between my sister-in-law Brocha and Pini’s wife Taibel would not last long. There would be hair-pulling every day. Especially my sister-in-law. She says herself that she is a “match.” She flares up right away. When her bad hour comes over her she will make mud out of you. A second later she grows so soft She has picked on me from the very first minute after her wedding. She knows that I don’t love her. She gets wild because I laugh at her. She thinks I am always laughing at her. If I look at her she calls that iaugfing. I have already told you that I like to draw and that my brother Elihu hits me for it. Well, once I made a picture of a foot. A terribly big foot. I drew it with chalk on the ground. So you should have seen what a fuss they made! She, that is Brocha, took it into her head that it wee her foot I had drawn. She wears No. 13 rubbers. Some rubbers! * * She fixed me with my brother Elihu. So my brother Elihu began to holler at me as he always does: . “Menschelech? (manikins). So, you are up to your old tricks again, drawing Menschelech?” I must confess that my fever for drawing Menschelech grows stronger and stronger every day. I got hold of a colored pencil. An emigrant, a little boy, made me a present of it. His name is Muttel, too. We call him “Big Muttel” and me they call “Little Muttel.” We have become chums all over again. Because he gave me the colored pencil I drew bis picture on paper, while we were riding in the train -his whole figure and his swollen cheeks. I made him swear that he would not show it to a soul because. if my brother Elihu laid his eyes on it, I would see my finish. What do you think he did? Of course, he carried the picture right off to my brother Elihu and stuck it under his very nose. “That must be Muttel’s work! Where in blazes is he, that Mulgetsh with his Menschelech?” So my brother Elihu says. He looks around tor me, but he can’t find me. I am sitting behind my mamma’s shoulders There is no better place in the world to and am choking with laughter. hide than with my mamma! Thank goodness, we are in Antwerp.

What is the wonder, when they wash the streets, scour the sidewalks and shampoo the houses? With my own eyes I saw the houses soaped and shampooed. Of course, not everywhere. For example, in the inns where :.e are staying with all the other emigrants it is as it should be, muddy and smoky and wet and slippery and close and a racket, an uproar, a hullabaloo. Lively! perfect! just the way | love it. My brother Elihu’s father-in-law, Jonah the baker, has not come yet. Nor our neighbor Pesi with her crowd. They are still on the way.

Our misfor- tune with the bedding that was swiped from us at the border is a dog compared to the misfortunes of the other emigrants. E got acquainted here at the station with a woman from Mezsh- bizsh not, as it happens, a widow. She has, as it happens. a husband, and he is already, as it happens, in America. She is on her way to her husband. It is almost a year since she is dragging herself there with two children. She has been wherever the world has a corner. There is not one city she has missed. She has it out with all the committees. Finally she has managed to drag herself here. Antwerp, after all her troubles, and wants to go on board the ship. But they won’t let her. Do you think she has bad eyes? God forbid! She is hale and hearty. Only she is a little off her mind. That is, when you talk to her, she speaks like a person. But once in a while she lets fall a word * * * you can split your sides laughing. She has taken into her head that she won't eat! She tells us not to eat either. She warns us we should not touch any milchigs (milk) be eause milchigs is fleischig (meat) here. So my mamma asks her: “Well, and how about fleisch (meat) ?’ Of course, it can’t come -“The fleisch is “not fleischig here, nor milchig, but parve” (neither one nor the other). So we burst out laughing, all of us, except my mamma. She says: “Woe to the laughter!”—and she begins to weep. “Again? You haven't cried already for a long time? Do you want them to send us all back home from Antwerp on account of your wait °F 8 So my brother Elihu says to my mamma—and her eyes get dry in a minute. More than the woman herself my mamma pities her two chil- dren, poor things. I don’t know why my mamma cries over the children so. The children seem to be quite happy! Whenever their mamma begins to talk foolish. they bu out laughing. I soon got acquainted with them. They told me-they are to be sent back home, but their mother doesn’t want to go. She wants to go to America to their father. who is a “Kaiser” there (he-he-he!) so the people fool her and tell her they are sending her by train to America (he-he-he!) They have talked it into her that a train goes straight from here to America (he-he-he!). HE wonders that fill your eyes in Antwerp—I can’t begin to de- scribe them. . Every day a new crowd comes. Mostly poor people, and mostly cripples, and mostly with bad eyes. “Trachomas” they call that. America lets no trachomas in. You may have a thousand ills, you may be lame and dumb and whatever you wish, as long as you have no trachomas on your eyes. Where do yon get the trachomas? Wherever you catch it. Sometimes it happens that you don’t know your- self where you got it. -Se I have heard right here in Antwerp. From a girl | heard it. Goldele is her name. She is my age, perhaps a year older than |. It’s a pretty story about this Goldele. I met her in the “Ezra.” But you don’t know what Ezra is. The Ezra in Antwerp is just like the Alliamce in Vienna. Made just for our sakes, for us emigrants. The only difference is that the Alliance is a male and the Ezra is a female. Well, as soon as. we reached Antwerp we went at once to the Ezra. The Ezra does not chase you out; you can come to her whenever you wish and can pour out your heart to her as much as you like. Everything that you say is entered ina book. A girl sits there (they call her Miss Zeitshik) and writes. Really a fine girl. She asked me my name and gave me.a candy.

Any letters will do, any letters which have come through the United States Post Office. Look at the upper right-hand corner. Do you see'the heavy black parallel lines—they may be straight or they may be curved—beginning a little to the right of the postmark and mussing up the face of George Washington, or whatever other proud patriot Uncle Sam has auaaiels with a place upon his postage stamps? Do you know what the mark is? Of course you do. It is the Government's sign that the stamp is cancelled. You don’t see anything tragic about it, do you? Well, there is something tragic about it. In one little New — apartment, at least. that sign has a sinister mean- ng. it is the home of a little old lady, Mrs. Elmira P. Norton, 522 West 122d street. Those black parallel lines have run across 63 years of Mrs. Norton’s tragic life. For her they mean Cancelled Riches, Cancelled Promises, Cancelled Ambition and Life. and Strength. They mean the breaking of a strong man who should have lived to be her protector, the cancelling of almost everything dear in life except the faint flicker of hope that the United States Government will yet arouse it- self and do tardy justice. For the use of that stamp Mrs. Norton claims a million dollars. And this is not a fantastic claim. Her husband, Mar- cus P. Norton, eventually worn out, heart-broken, done to death in the pursuit of that million, was the inventor of that stamp. His claim to the invention was acknowl- edged and patented by the United States Government. Its use by the Post Office Department was authorized and, according to the department’s own figures, that use has saved the Government twenty millions. The high- est courts of the land have recognized the justice of the Norton claim, although the exact amount was never adjudicated, and the Governmert 40 years ago offered him $100,000 in settlement. But in 1916, 63 years after the Government took over and began to use the inven- tion, not one cent has ever been paid to Mr. Norton or his heirs. And all this has happened without any real opposition to the Norton claim. The Government has been too busy, that is all. Or there were strenuous calls for economy and retrenchment. Or Congress—only Congress can do anything now—has felt that one more year would not matter in the case of a claim that had waited so long. In the meantime Mrs. Norton, past 80 and go- ing blind, has waited—wait- ed—waited. All through the years Mrs. Norton has avoided pub- licity. She has suffered pov- erty with aristocratic for- titude and shrank from tell- ing the world. But she could not wait forever, she said, and now tells the simple human story underneath one of the most complicated masses of red tape which has ever gathered together in a single snarl. Marcus P. Norton, she said, was a young lawyer in Troy, N. Y., when they were married. He was a gradu- ate of Union College. strong, hopeful, optimistic to the core. But he was not a dreamer. He was a practical man who realized the approach of the machinery age. To be an inventor, to save the labor of millions by the careful calculations of a single brain—that was the road to fortune. That is, if the invention could be protected. He became a patent lawyer and specialized in mechani- eal principles. He made money rapidly. He was generous with it and did not amass a great fortune, but he was looked upon in Troy as a coming power in the financial and industrial world. It was often the simplest little in- vention that counted moat, he found; so he looked for places where work was be- ing done clumsily and ap- plied himself to simple so- lutions of the problem at hand. The postoffice, handling millions of letters, was then cancelling postage with an ordinary cork stamp and affixing post- marks with another. Young Norton reduced the two op- erations to one by a simple device and had the device patented in 1853. He made several improvements dur- ing the next few years, had them likewise protected by patents and submitted the machine for use in various postoffices. The postmas- ters immediately took over the device and used it. Young Norton felt that he tad “landed.” , SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—FEBRUARY 27, 1910. MARCUS P.

But he always answered that it was the Gov- ernment using it, and if he couldn't trust in the honor of the United States, he couldn't trust in anything.” “The honor of the United States!” The words were familiar, but they were uttered with an indescribably pathetic accent. Norton had not landed. His invention was used for years, but there was no appropriation to pay for its use. Then he filed claims, with the Postoffice Department and ran into unexpected difficulties. | Those difficulties would be unbelievable to one who has had: no experience with departmental red tape. In- stead of paying Norton for past service, the department decided to investigate the invention and, if satisfactory. take it over for general use. It -was held, however, that no postmasters had yet been authorized to use it, and, if they had done so, they were indi- vidually responsible for the debt to the inventor. So said the depart- ment. But when suits were subse- quentiy brought against the post- masters, not one cent could be col- lected. In 1867, however, Morten’ s diffieul- ties seemed to have vanished. Post- master-General Alexander W. Rana- dall, then reported to the Congressional Committee on Postofficces amd Post Reads: ‘“Norton’s stamp is the one desired. It is the best stamp there is. The depart- ment has already saved several hundred thousand dol- lars by its use, and I have no doubt it will continue to save large sums. it is necessary that some settlement be immediately made.” “It’s all settled now,”’ Marcus P. Norton told his wife, the woman who is still waiting for that “immediate” settlement in the little walk-up apartment at 522 West 122d street. But he would have to be in Washington to arrange terms. He went to Washington, and back to Troy, and back to Washing- ton again. It took money and time, time urgently needed for his other busi- ness. But this was a big thing. The other business would have to wait. And Congress adjourned with no settlement being made. To trace the ramifications of the Norton claim from that time onward would be impossible. The claim was admitted by the Postoffice Department, which promised that the “Government” would pay. It was upheld by the Court of Claims, which decided, however, that this word “Government” meant Congress and left the court without jurisdiction to ad- judicate. Then .it was found that the Postoffice Department had aot been authorized by Congress to hss et use the device and Con- gress, in 1870, officially granted such authorization. The Senate then passed a bill authorizing the payment of $100,000 to Mr. Norton. By this time Mr. Norton’s other business had gone to smash. He had been under tremendous expense for legal services and was financially at zero, But he re- fused to take $100,000. He had a just claim, he main- tained. an admittedly just claim for several times that amount, and one that no fighting American need com- promise. done. Mr. Norton began to berrow money to press his claim. For security he gave interests in the claim iiseif. The once prosperous lawyer became marked in Troy, as he journeyed to Washington and back, month after month and year after year, pinning all his hopes now upon the So Congress adjourned again with nothing 7 | ; Bee ou. ¢ nar DIeSHnWT 5 ae geen eventful just settlement of this all-but-settled claim. But the borrowed money held up the claim still further. There became 17 claimants, and just as it seemed Con-- gress could be prodded into a settlement, the claimants disagreed. Congress therefore delayed action again. “That claim was our baby food,” said Miss Estelle M. Norton, referring to herself and her sister, Miss Ada Norton, who have supported the aged mother since Mr. Norten’s death. “When we girls were little children, that claim had become almost a mania with father. Then:we had to go without the things we wanted, he would console us by the assurance that we would soon — be millionaires. We would live in a palace, have every- thing we could think of.- ‘Only wait till the next Con- gress meets, little ones!’ And the next Congress would meet and adjourn and we would hear it all over again.” The Misses Norton are both well known in New York, but few, even of their intimate friends, know of their connection with this strange and tragic claim. Miss Estelle is a teacher of music. Miss Ada is an actress, known to Broadway as Ada Curry. Mr. Norton died in 1890. “He was murdered,’ s@ys the aged partner of his life-long hopes, in her sweet, sad voice, “crushed to death by a Government which was too big and clumsy te pay a simple debt. Don’t say that I think it was intentional—these big Congressmen simply didn’t know. Qh, I believe in the United States Government yet. They WILL pay it some time, won't they?’ Almest every year for 30 years, at the instigation of the Pestoffice Department, some bill has been introduced in Congress authorizing settlement of the Norton claim. One of the claimants, George C. Lewis, has become at- torney and agent for all, so that there is no further disagreement to block its passage. But the claim seems to be hoodeoed and Mr. Lewis is experiencing in. a measure something of the perennial torture which Mr. Norton suffered. The bill is usually reperted out of committee and dies in the press of business before ad- journment. Senater Townsend has _ introduced the bill into the present Congress. For reasons unkaown to the Nortens, it appropriates only $50,000. “If it passes,” said Mrs. Norton, “it means that we will get nething. The obliga- tions my husband undertook in order to press the claim amount to more than that.” It is hoped by the heirs that the bill will be sent to the House and amended in such ameasure that Mrs. Norton will receive a substantial sum in partial atone- ment for the Cancelled Years. . “It is not merely the money,” said Miss Bstelle. “It is mother. A million doHars would mever pay her for what she has suffered. But if she could receive some reasonable compensation now, she would feel that the United States Government was at last recognizing father.” When Mr. Norton perfected and patented his inven- tien and when it was ac- St. Louis then was a com-— paratively small city of 83,000 inhabitants. There were only 31 states in the Union—Minnesota, Kansas, Nebraska and 14 others were territories. Mr. Norten’s invention, with improvements which have been added in recent years, now is in almost universal use in the Post- office Department. Only in tiny villages and hamlets which barely have risen to the dignity of maintaining a postoffice can the @ld- style rubber hand stamp and ink pad be found.

Hardly had he reached the deck when a pistol was placed at his head and he was ordered to pilot the ship to the inner harber or have his brains blown out. “To this he replied that he would gladly take the ship in,;but that he was himself a stranger and unfamiliar with the channel, bui that one of his men knew the way. Fs Boag i No sooner were they sprang forth and seized then learned that the Island. his rescuers that he had coast of Africa, had obtained slaves, had carried them to the West Indies for when his crew mutinied and 4mtention of turning pirates. the men could navigate he and the mate had been kept under guard and com- his former crew. the story the whaling captains told the that if he would go aboard his ship, who was held a prisoner below in retaking the ship, they would try to clear him of his part in the mutiny. They then a man-O-war was within two hours’ sail and that if the boatswain did not fulfill his promises they would sail to the war vessel, secure an armed force and return and capture all the pirates. “The boatswain was then sent to his ship, and as the whalemen had foreseen, he made no attempt to carry out their orders and one of the Nantucket vessels then hoisted sail and started as if to pass close to one side of the pirates. Immediately the mutineers shifted all their guns to that side of their vessel, but as soon as the whalers saw this had been done they suddenly veered, jibbed and swept by the ship on the opposite side and out of range before the pirates could shift their cannons. “The whalers then sailed out of sight, tacked, set a signal as if they had spoken the man-o’-war and steered boldly in towards the pirate ship. Fully believing that the whalers had carried out their threat and had ob- tained an armed force of bluejackets, the pirates hastily abandoned their vessel and sought refuge on the shore, only to be quickly captured by the inhabitants. “The whalemen then released the captive mate and put a crew aboard the ship and convoyed her to Nassau, where the leader of the mutineers was hung and the re- sourceful whalemen were given a reward of $2500 for their part in the capture of the pirates. “The whalemen at times had mutinies of their own which were far more serious than this, however, and while many were nipped in the bud, or were suppressed before the mutineers were successful, on several occa- sions the officers were butchered and the ships seized by the crews. “Among the noteworthy mutinies on whaling ships was that of the Globe of Nantucket, which occurred in 1824, and which scarcely has a parallel for the petty events which caused it. “The Globe sailed from Nantucket in December. 1822, and no signs of dissatisfaction or trouble with the crew oc :urred for over a year. While skylarking on deck one day one of the boat-steerers named Comstock, was thrown in a wrestling match with the third mate, Noah Fisher, and, infuriated at the latter’s triumph,.he be- came so insolent and aggressive that he was knocked down, and stunk out of sight, muttering threats to kill t* ; officer. “No attention waa, given to his threats, however, and nothing more was thought of the matter until on the night of Jan. 25, 1824, the awful tragedy occurred, when Comstock, with four companions, enterec the cabin and bl +44 : ; i iE qs “we U} SB "MUS JOOJOIg OG} PU ‘al]j 07 pue Iyeqo B OVU, HUBS oy pues ‘ArB}UeMIOM!

Re killed the captain and first mate while they slept. “Aroused by the the second and third mates, Lambert and Fisher, barricaded themselves in their cebin, but Comstock leaded two muskets and shot through the door, one of the balls striking Fisher in the mouth. The door was then battered in and Com- stock struck at Lambert, but missing him, lost his bal- _ ance and fell into the stateroom, where he was seized by the mate, but after a short struggle escaped. “Fisher, armed with a bayonet, lunged at Comstock, but the latter promised to spare the men if they would surrender, and Fisher, suffering terribly and badly wounded by the musket ball, threw down arms, whereupon his brains were promptly blown and Lambert’s body was run through by a whale-lance. With fiendish ferocity the mutineers then mutilated their vic- tims and tossed them overboard, although Lambert was still alive and screaming for mercy. “The vessel was now in the mutineers’ hands and was headed for the Malgrave Islands, where the mutineers proceeded to strip and loot her. Very soon, however, a drunken quarrel arose over the division of the spoils, and during the fight Comstock, the ringleader, was killed. Taking advantage of the confusion, six of the men who had refused to join. the mutineers, cut the . Ship’s cable, worked the vessel out of the bay and headed out to sea. “After a long and stormy voyage the six men managed to reach Valparaiso, where théy turned the ship over to the American Consul and related the circumstances of the mutiny and their escape. The ship was then put in charge of a Captain King and sent home, while a vessel was dispatched to the island to capture the mutineers. Upon arrival there it was found that the murderers had already met with their deserts and that all but two men, William Lay of New London and Cyrus Hussey of New Bedford, had been killed by the natives. “Another notable mutiny on a whaling ship place on the ship Junior of New Bedford in 1857. “The Junior sailed from New Bedford in July, round- ed Cape Horn and cruised on the Pacific until Decem-' ber. On Christmas day Capt. Miller served spirits to the men and leaving them apparently happy and enjoy- ing their celebration of the day, he retired to his cabin. “Early the following morning, Dec. 26, Cyrus Plummer and four men armed with guns entered the cabin, placed the muzzles of their weapons against the bodies of the sleeping officers and fired. The captain was killed in- stantly and the mates were riddled by bullets, but still lived. The third mate was quickly dispatched by a whale-spade, but the second and first mates managed to escape, and concealed themselves in the hold, although the latter had six bullets in his body. “The murderers regained the deck, only to be met by the members of the crew who still remained loyal, but after a short parley all gave in to the mutineers. Now that the ship was in their hands the crew devoted them- selves to making merry for several days, but soon real- ized that they were helpless upon the ocean with no one to navigate their vessel. “Their first fury had now worn off and the two mates were called from the hold, where they had remained for five days suffering excruciating tortures from their un- cared-for wounds. As their services were required by the mutineers, their lives were spared and they were or- dered to sail the vessel to Australia. When within 20 miles of the coast, the ringleader, Plummer, ordered two boats lowered and after rifling the ship of valuables and provisions, left the vessel and pulled for the land. “Their freedom was short-lived, however; eight of them were caught and hung, and before their execution made a written confession of the part they had played in the tragedy, exonerating the other members of the ship’s company, and by thus turning State’s evidence the ring- leader, Plummer, managed to escape the gallows. “But of all perils which beset the whaleman the dan- ger of being crushed in the ice was probably the greatest and more ships were lost by ice than by all other causes combined. “On two occasions, in 1871 and in 1876, entire fleets were lost in the ice of the Arctic—20 vessels being de- stroyed in 1876, while the disaster of 1871 was the great- est catastrophe which ever befell the whaling industry, 32 vessels being destroyed, leaving over 1200 persons shipwrecked and causing a monetary loss of over $1,000,- 000 to New Bedford alone. ‘In one respect also it stands forth as the most re- markable of maritime disasters, for despite the number of vessels destroyed, the number of shipwrecked people and the rigors and dangers they faced, not a single life was lost.” took (Continued from Page 5s) ut iSayejyye Ayjwme7., « SIPBIJS Apyurez,, «¢ TOSBOl JEM 10,7, « ‘ea “W Meuy NOA “TI1g., « T9PINU SO[TANey 9}4[OddT#T Jo mor WUyVSe ‘pepanos jou pip | eq) Aes 0} pepnuS ue | fqm st 7eq) PY ; A 4 , ¢ to - AS is i sah oe igh jai - & i o Sere ee ee, Oe eee Oeigeer ee ; ; ; , Pee Pepe PL POR aa PEED Salta a ae aes PS ay, > Soe aa ~ nee te ee eee 1 yet a IN iv i.

This is in no wise a reflection on the many very able ‘ and wholly -sincere members of the peace mission, but the fact remains that the gentle grafter and the pleasant parasite, the placid meal ticketer and the smug sus- tenance seeker were with us in full force. We were all more or less in that situation, because we couldn’t go along in any other way even if we had de- sired to, which most of us didn’t. Several great daily newspapers wished to pay their correspondents’ ex- penses, but were prohibited from doing so by the men in charge. “Ford, he pays the freight,” was the slogan. He paid it royally—transportation, rooms and meals, laundry and taxicabs, typewriters and tips, paper, pens ink and blotters. Also his efficient aids handled the baggage and nobody had to worry about it. Which was a blessing, for the baggage problem is one of the abom- inations of European travel. NE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE people, or thereabouts, were transported, housed, fed and amply provided for in all necessities and many luxuries by a system as smooth. running and competent as a dynamo. And that was because the material end of the game was handled by - men with brains. If the politi- cal and pacifist end had been different—certainly the progress would have been less uneven. , But we were speaking of the gentle grafter and the pleasant parasite.

A bad for us newspaper folk; we thought our merry jaunt was sud- denly to end and be- gan inquiring about steerage rates back to America or can- vassing possibilities of a touch when we got our ticket of leave. It happened in this manner: The inner star chamber which ran things politically for the expedition—Mr. Ford himself being ill—labored much of the time under the impression that one of its chief functions was to hold out or suppress news. Naturally the press gang—notably the members there- of who were sending daily wireless mes- sages—collided constantly with this idea, and so became obnoxious to the knights of the inner temple, who didn’t under- stand either the necessity or the ethics of reporting. So by the time we reached Christiania there was something akin to war aboard the peace ship between the press and the pilgrims, and it was seri- ously proposed to make the press walk the plank and cease being guests of Mr. Ford. But when Gaston Plantiff—of whom more anon—heard of this, he emitted a raucous roar and squashed that suicidal policy of hysteria, to the dismay of the inner temple, but the delight of the few sapient souls who had come’in quest of peace. So we “journalists” stayed aboard, uncensored and untrammeled— always excepting the kindly trammels of hospitality—as guests of Mr. Ford. T one time it looked very ‘‘Some of the guests will have silver service to transmit a HIS, however, is not the comedy Act two finds the lady from of the experience of being guests “Our resence made the taxi where she visited the Ford putes were controlled by law.” contemplate the sufferings of headquarters and again made a plea for the husband and two children and was again turned down.

Then these delegates went through such bitter pain when they surveyed the food set before them at the hotels. They objected to being served only four courses, when they had been used to seven—one each day in the week. And they took it as a personal insult that only 50 per cent of the natives spoke English. They talked about “foreigners”: and wanted to go and see the American Minister about it. The ‘taxicab. business troubled them, too. They didn’t see, when taxis cost only 20 cents a mile, why they had to walk clear across the square to breakfast and other meals. Of course, there is something to be said on their side. They had to be dele- gates and things, and that meant that they must attend meetings on the boat and meet- ings in the trains and meetings in the hotels and in halls, corridors and everywhere but in the snow. And they had to listen to speeches, the same old speeches in English from the same old orators who had begun in New York and the only variation was a Norwegian or Swedish speech. Even on Christmas eve the speech habit was so ingrained that a perfectly good evening was spoiled. Altogether, it is probable that the gentle grafters who got mixed in with the party earned whatever they got, for they had to go to meetings to escape the suspicion of being ‘joy riders; and therefore their graft came high. the following full advantage a year’s supply of linen, and to future generations.’ T was a queer aggregation that Henry Ford's advis- ers and Madame Sehwimmer’s aids had garnered for the expedition. There was no variety of “ist” and and “ite” unrepresented, from the pacifist to the psycho-analist, and from the cosmopolite to the sub- urbanite. There were eager and earnest young folk in the student body and keen and cynical people in the press group. There were a dozen or so very able, very competent and unusual men and women aboard the Oscar II and plenty more that were unusual enough, if neither competent nor able. And when the Frederick VIII brought its Ford ad- denda, so to speak, we had more of them, from a Ger- man-named gentleman—who was jokingly accused of be- ing a German spy and who spent the rest of the jour- ney plaintively explaining that he was not, and who even went to the American Minister about it—to the tall and rangy lady who talked at the Christmas eve banquet for 15 minutes, telling utterly unrelated stories because she was too embarrassed to sit down. And while Henry Ford furnished the funds, Gaston Plantiff, general sales agent of the Ford company—a “regular guy, believe me’’—was the disbursing agent for the trip. Thus it - came about that the newspaper garg, characterizing the general joy riders in a song, caroled cheerily to the tune of ‘‘Glory. glory, hallelujah:” “Send the bill to Gaston Plantiff, Send the bill to Gaston Plantiff, Send the bill to Gaston Plantiff, For he has all the dough,”’ . Students, delegates, grafters and newspaper people, we traveled far and lived high. And if we fought a lot , and did a few crazy things, and if about two-thirds of us were nuts and the other third vague theorists and rapt dreamers, and if a few of the guiding spirits were more concerned with their own petty ambitions and meanness than with the success of the mission they prated so nobly about—why, that has nothing much to do with this story, which declares that Henry Ford is all right and we're for him. What’s that? Our bill? Some- thing like twenty or thirty or forty dollars per day per person. We raised the rates of exchange by our presence, and whdle cities smiled when we arrived. Also the hotel proprietors and such folk licked fat chops in anticipative glee, and hid the old rate card to print new ones. Taxi chapffeurs wept because their rates were controlled by law, and the meters were almost unfixable. The honest Norsemen and the honorable Swedes stuck out the receptive mitt and affixed the thirsty leech to the fat purse of the bursar; and the trustworthy Danes did likewise. The motto was: “Here comes the golden shower, get a tub!” Total? Oh, a half million, three- quarters of a million, perhaps. SUNDAY MAGAZ'NE—ST.

ALLEL SPREADING OVER THE a “Hearth Fire Girls,” who formed first group here, are taught rules of health, first aid, home-making and wood-lore—Expenses for each mem- ber two cents a week—To attain one of degrees, candy, ice cream, gum and pickles must be eschewed $3 MONG the mail received daily by Miss Ger- trude L. Prack, secretary of the Girls’ Work Department of the St. Louis Young Women’s Christian Association are let- ters which show that an organization of young Women which had its inception in St. Louis is rapidly spreading to all parts of the United States. It is known as the Hearth Fire Girls, and was formed by former members of Ernest Thompson Seton’s Camp Fire Girls in revolt against the expense, centralized authority and other features of the latter organization. ) Although the new body is but four years old, there are, in addition to that in the Y. W. C. A., branches in virtually every Protestant church in St. Louis. Many Y. W.. C. A. organizations in the smaller towns of Missouri, lowa, Arkansas, Texas, Colorado and Nebras- ka have been modeled after the first St. Louis group and Miss Prack is constantly receiving letters of inquiry from churches, Young Women’s Christian Associations, _women’s clubs and girls’ schools all over the country. When the 45 groups of Camp Fire Girls in St. Louis revolted against the general body, there were approx- imately 800 members in this city, centering around the group at the Y. W. C. A. Now there are fewer than 250, the others having gone over to the new organiza- tion. Among the causes of dissatisfaction among the Camp Fire Girls was an edict from the equipment office ig New York that all local groups must pay annual dues to tnat office in addition to buying their uniforms and equipment there. It was found that this office planned a national board of directors for the Camp Fire Girls, and did not intend to permit the local groups to have a voice in its government. The St. Louis girls would not remain Camp Fire Girls, but they liked the organization in itself. They found the work inter- esting and beneficial and they did not want to give it up al- together. So the 45 guardians got together to consider ways and means of continuing as an organization without remaining a part of the Camp Fire Girls. The curriculum of the Camp Fire Girls, the Girl Seouts and the Ladies of King Arthur’s Court were studied, and finally Miss Prack, guardian of the Y. W. C. A Camp Fire group, evolved a new set of rules and requirements, which was an adaptation of the best elements in the three other organizations, and suggested its adoption by the St. Louis girls under the name of Hearth Fire Girls. This plan proved satisfactory and accordingly a constitution and bylaws were drawn up and the first group of Hearth Fire Girls in America was formed in February, 1912. This group soon became too large, so it was divided and new groups formed. When asked how many Hearth Fire groups there now are, Miss Prack said she had not the least idea “Whenever I attend a secretaries’ meeting at any of the Y. W. ©. A. conventions I hear of new groups,” she said, “and last summer when I was in New York I found several groups in that fo city itself and in some of the towns nearby. You see, we have no general officers. and no general headquarters, so it would be impossible for any one guardian to form an estimate of the total membership of the organization in the United States without making a regular canvass of the country.” The foremost appeal of the Hearth Fire organization, Miss Prack believes, is its simplicity. “The Camp Fire Girls wore an Indian costume with head dress, beads and other ornaments, which called for a considerable expenditure of money. Some of them felt embarrassment when called upon to appear in public in them. In addition, some of the requirements, such as horseback riding, atjtomobile driving and spend- ing so much time in the open every year, called for an additional outlay which we found many of the girls in St. Louis could not afford. There was nothing to do but withdraw or get an endowment. “In planning the Hearth Fire organization we considered all these points, and have brought the expense question down to virtually nothing. _Two cents a week —and that not every week-—will cover it all for each girl. For degree symbeia. we have little stickers which we buy wholesale. The costume is a middy blouse and plain skirt. The requirements are such that any person, no matter how small her means, may comply with them without extra expense, since they are habits rather than diversions. “In the matter of dues, our constitution permits each group to decide that ques- tion for itself. “Of course, the Hearth Fire Girls was formed primarily to meet the needs of the girls’ department of the St. Louis Y. W. C. A., with the object of developing its memberr socially, intellectually, physically and spiritually, and we have made the MISS GERTRUDE L., Secretary of the girts’ of the St. Louis Y. W. C. of the first group of Hearth Fire Girts be organized in Hearth Fire Girls receiving instruction in first aid, general committee of the girls’ department an ex officts Board of Supervision. This plan med best to us, Other groups may have other governing rules, according to their individual needs. “Girls from 12 years old up are eligible. Those under 12 are permitted to form groups of Hearth Fire Juniors. Meetings are held every week, and each group has monthly business meeting when credits and emblems are awarded. There are three degrees of membership, the acorn, the log and the flame degrees. The first requires a girl to attend four consecutive meetings of a Hearth Fire group, to fulfill four requirements from either the compulsory or elective list and to take the vow of fire, which is, ‘I promise to do my best to live uprightly, to - laugh heartily, to labor cheerfully and to love sin- cerely.’ “The log degree is attained by presenting 16 com- pulsory and 24 elective requirements. The compulsory requirements are: “Drink at least six glasses of water (not ice water) daily for one month. “Brush the teeth twice daily for one month. Psa “Know how to: (a) Put out clothing on fire, (b) Stop bleeding, (c) Restore a fainting person, (d) Es an open cut and frost bites. “Know how to use the following bandages: (a) Circular, (b) Reverse, (e) Pasar, (d) Head, (e) Foot. (f) Sling. “Sleep with open windows or out-of-doors for one month. “Be able to answer. satisfactorily 10 questions on personal health and hygiene, such questions to be based on the guardian’s lecture on the subject. “Refrain from chewing gum, candy, pickles, sundaes and all drinks except chocolate, milk and water between meals for one month. “Take at least half an hour daily out-door exercise or stipulated indoor exercises for one month. “Know how to tie a square knot and break Sinn: ut “Mend a pair of stockings and a knitted undergarment, icake a patch and hem some article. “Keep a written account of all received and spent for personal use in one month. ‘Memorize any good poem of not less than twenty-five lines. “Know the career of some woman who has served her country or state. “Know all the words of ‘America,’ the name of the Governor of the state asd the Mayor of the city in which you live. “Take the following vow: “ ‘Having attained the log degree, I further promise to: I can. Be all I can, Anywhere I can.’ “Im the elective requirements are the nature group. which includes Senssierteiens of elementary botany, ornithology and astronomy, and a little of the practice of each; the heaiti group, which requires cleanly habits, eare as to diet and habits of life, systematic éxercise and open-air sports. In the latter horsemanship, swimming, - rowing, outdoGr and indoor games and other similar sports are mentioned, but as they are elective the girls who cannot afford them may easily win their degrees on the less expensive items. “The three remaining groups in the elective classification are the home. group, in which domestic science, gen- eral household knowledge such as washing, ironing, sweeping, simple home entertaining, study of good books, music and art, plain and fancy sewing, millinery and dressmaking, are included; the business group, which requires work in an office, as an executive, in social service, letter writ- ing and teaching and prohibits bor- rowing money or wearing apparel; and the ‘#froup, in which — religious work, history study, etc. are placed. “There is a camp group, not pos sible to all, which, with some of the — requirements in other roa a third and final degree req - that of the Sante e + het —Kayiwara Portrait.

The reason is obvious.

Therefore a panic was sent quivering through the British Isles when recent dispatches told of a new speedy, fast-climbing, armed mono- s140un y ‘Kapag uojieg SOCOURR wean See a ane se weet aa ee ee Mee nn ee ee ee ee ee ee ew ee = ee ee ree ee “Aon ore ey , a Ok "eta te) ea tee - am plane just introduced by the Germans and named the Fokker. The i, scare was industriously fanned by the powerful Northcliffe press, for the purpose of what it termed its patriotism. Miracles to this newcomer in the air, and the name Fokker became one of sinister meaning, similar to that of “the goblin uns” in Riley’s poem. It was said that the Fokker could climb into the sky almost as rapid- ly as a Zeppelin; that its speed was such that no other existing craft could rival it; and that. its armament was fatal to any hostile flyer which could not escape betimes out of its range. It was in vain that Mr. Tennan, Under-Secretary of War, announced in Parliament that the Fokker, by its limitations, was confined to de- fensive fighting. No details were known about the construction of the | it with enormous prowess. si. 4 new sky-fighter, and ignorance invested Lord Northcliffe, through his were assigned newspapers. warned the author- ities to look sharp lest the aerial supremacy of the allies be en- dangered, if it was not already fatally impaired. But at last true information concerning the Fokker has reached this country. It appears to be indeed a very formidable fighting craft, swift in climb- ing, dangerously armed; but ise eae one which, being modeled on the | French Morane type of mono- ie plane, the allies have without great trouble found means of ee combating. Ne The inventor of the machine, [ ie Mijnheer Fokker, is a young ee Dutchman, who has lived in Germany for several years and who is one of the cleverest aviators in Germany.

The Fokker propeller blades are ve use pearance they are close copies of with machine-gun fire. fitted with deflector plates to turn the French Morane monoplane. It has commonly been assumed that the Fokker was a small machine, but this appears not to be true. The framework of the Fokker, according to the Petit Paris- ien and other papers, is larger than that of the rapid French aeroplanes of the same type. This makes the wings appear relatively smaller and probably accounts for the statements published in England regarding the smaliness of the Fokker. 't is operated hy an armored propeller worked by a motor of 150-horsepower.: . aside bullets that hit them. Only about five or six bullets in a hundred are likely to hit the plates, and the remaining ninety-odd pass between the blades straight for thetr target. The Fokkers which do not fire through their propellers almost always attack their victims from behind, diving under their tails and coming up in such a position that, while they can shoot up into the body of the pursued machine, the fugitive, even if sitting behind the pilot, cannot shoot at the Fokker for fear of blowing his own tail off. This is the Fokker (German) aeroplane which has been able to outfly and outmaneuver anything owned by the «ments, are carefully safeguarded, as they cannot readily allies.

It is their task to prevent the aeroplanes of the allies from spying out the positions of the German troops, and they are supposed to be always ready to pursue the machines of the allies which arrive for that purpose. It is also expected that they will attack squadrons - of aeroplanes of the allies which are on their way to bombard: German positions and prevent them from car- rying out their orders. On this account the Fokkers are kept several miles behind that first German line. Most of them are 20 miles inside the German front. , When a French or British aeroplane is signaled in movement toward the German position, and if the pilot refuses to be intimidated by the new shrapnel with black smoke which the Germans throw aloft with considerable precision, then the pilot of the Fokker arises and awaits in the sky the adversary’s arrival, with his machine ready for the attack, speedy and capable of maneuvering 3 so as to fire from in front in almost any position the | operator may choose. | The Fokker monoplane never is allowed to go outside of the German lines, and it is imperatively impressed upon the aviator that he must keep out of reach of the French guns. It is not designed, contrary to reports as a weapon of attack, but is rather a defensive ma- chine, consumes an extravagant quantity of gasoline, and gasoline is scarce within the German lines. The condi tions which are thus imposed reduce the activity of the German aviators who pilot these machines, the latest models of which, equipped with several new improve- be replaced. Philip Gibbs, writing from British headquarters, says that the British reply to the Fokker is already in the field. He gives no details of its construction, but it seems to. be very much on the same lines as the Ger- man machine. But already it is doing more than the Fokker (which remains behind its own trenches) by | acting as escort to the slower, less mobile machines which the British use for reconnaissance work over the German position. : Gibbs’ story of a battle is interesting. This aviator was acting as escort to an aeroplane on reconnaissance duty when two Fokkers suddenly appeared behind that machine. The pilot, who was 2000 feet above them, dived immediately, and, picking out one of the hostile craft, opened fire. It was forced down and continued the nose dive for at least 6000 feet. By this time the second Fokker had climbed higher than his British ad- versary from behind, but the aviator chased up the sky and came to within 100 feet of the German, when he opened fire again. After 30 rounds, this machine made a steep nose dive, followed down about 4500 feet by the British pilot, who saw him to earth at last in a plowed field: The pilot climbed again to about 11,000 feet and discovered a Ger- man Albatross aloft behind and above one of the scouts. It fled after a short encounter. But it was not the last adventure of the day, for on returning to the allied lines the British pilot saw another Fokker amongst a little group of British biplanes on reconnaissance, and scared it, and down went the third Fokker at a very steep angle, until it disappeared, still nosé-diving, 3000 feet below. When ip. horizontal flicht it The new British ma- has a high speed, which the | ae Germans say can reach 180 :|" kilometers an hour. Its f° rising speed has, been proved to be high. It can attain ‘ 7500 feet in 10 minutes, which is all the more re markable in view of its large dimensions. The Fokker was designed in principle to carry only one person, who at the same time acts as pilot and com- batant. The pilot has his’ seat in the middle of the fuselage, which is well armored, especially in the newer machines of this ivype. The aviator has at his reach a machine gun eapable of firing strips con- chine appears to be a match in speed and hunt- ing qualities fur the Ger- man type. Like that, it is designed specially for air combats, and carries its gun forward so that it can fire straight ahead. The proof of its efficiency is shown clearly enough if the achievement record- ed above can be substan- tiated. Apart from that, according to Gibbs, the Fokker has often been challenged and beaten by aviators in.the ordinary reconnoitering machines, On Jan. 17, as men- tioned above, one of the British pilots. sighted a taining 250 cartridges di- rectly through the propeller. Herein is constituted the most important feature of the Fokker, an application of the invention of Garros, a French aviator. It permits the aviator to attack an enemy crait from in front. The favorite method of attack is for the Fokker to fly high, till one of the allies’ machines appears in sight below. Then, if the Fokker is of the fixed-gun type, it stands on its head and dives straight for its victim, loosing a stream of bullets as soon as it gets within range. By making the descent ever so slightly spiral the straight stream of bullets becomes a cone of fire, with its apex * at the gun and the target inside, so that which ever way SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

The Taubes and Aviatiks were too stiff for aerial com- bat and it became indispensable to the Germans, if they did not wish to remain in a condition of manifest in- feriority, to construct rapid air craft of another type. By borrowing features of various French machines, and finally adopting the arrangement which permitted Gar- ros to fire through the propeller, they arrived at the Fokker. To the Fokker airmen the German military authorities have given a very definite and jimited role. Their duty is to mount guard in the neighborhood of the Ger- rt et eee Fokker biplane flying over a wood at 10,000 feet, over- hauled it and opened fire at close range. After some maneuvering a jet of flame me was seen to come from the enemy’s machine, and the - Fokker dived steeply. On the same day a pilot on escort F duty saw his reconnaissance machine attacked by a’ Fokker. With another British aeroplane in support, he dived at it and drove it off. and it was last seen go- ing down in a spiral. On the homeward journey a British aeroplane was attacked by another Fokker, but | it beat a hasty retreat when the British pilot opened — fire.

Hardly had they started when the whale gave chase with open jaws and the men felt their last hour had come; but for some reason the creature veered off, passed the boat within a few feet and disappeared, leav- ing the boat to reach the Alexander unharmed. “As soon as the men were on board, the boat. was sent back to pick up the oars and fittings of the other boats and the whale again appearing, the chase was re- sumed, but when within 50 rods of the creature, he dived, and the attempt at capture was abandoned and the boat was pulled slowly towards the approaching ship. “The captain was standing at the vessel’s knight- heads watching the boat draw near when suddenly the whale rose close at hand and before an order could be shouted dashed into the ship, staving a huge hole two feet from the keel and just abaft the foremast. Into the torn and started planking the sea rushéd in a tor- rent and the men had barely time to toss a‘ few provi- sions into a boat and launch it, ere the ship plunged beneath the waves. “The predicament of the men, thus suddenly left afloat in mid-ocean, was a serious one indeed, for one of the boats had been badly stove and leaked rapidly and less than one day’s stock of water and food was on hand for all the men. Undismayed, however, the crews started to pull across the sea toward land, but two days later, on Aug. 22, their troubles came to an end as the ship Nantucket of Nantucket was sighted. “Strangely enough, the whale which attacked and sank the Alexander was afterwards captured by a New Bedford whaling ship, the Rebecca Simms. Five months after the foundering of the Ann Alexander a whale was killed by the Simms and pieces of ship’s timber and planks were noticed embedded in its head and an ex- amination revealed two of the Alexander’s irons in his body. “Still a stranger fate which befell several whalers and merchant ships as well, was running onto whales—the result being the same as if~they had struck a rock or a reef—and while some were actually sunk in this man- ner, the majority of vessels which ran onto whales were brought into port, though leaking badly. “Of all shipwrecks caused by running onto a whale, that of the ship Union of Nantucket, Capt. Edward Gard- ner, is the most noteworthy and interesting. “The Union sailed from Nantucket for Brazil on Sept. 19, 1807, and when 12 days out and while proceeding un- der easy sail at a speed of seven knots she suddenly brought up against a whale. The shock was so great that those on board thought the vessel had run onto a rock until the animal was seen and a hasty examination showed that the’ planking on the starboard bow had been smashed in and two timbers had been broken. The pumps were started but the water rapidly gained and the crew prepared to leave the ship. The men were di- vided equally in two boats, which headed for the Azores, over 600 miles distant. “By Oct. 2 the men managed to rig up sails, but during the next two days the wind rose to a gale, the extempo- rized sails were carried away and the two boats were lashed together and allowed to drift. Owing to the haste in which the men left the ship very few provisions and an insufficient supply of water had been put in the boats, and by Oct. 4 the men were put on rations con- sisting of but three quarts of water and 16 small cakes for the whole company for each 24 hours. “Starvation was staring them in the face, their thirst, was terrible, and their case seemed hopeless, when on Oct. 9, they sighted the island of Flores and landed safely after being adrift for seven days and eight nights, during which time they had rowed, sailed and drifted for 600 miles. “Sometimes stories of a ‘mad whale’ were spread among the whalers—tales of some monster of excep- tional ferocity and courage —a whale warrior who de- stroyed lives and boats and invariably escaped, and avhen at last some vessel captured such a fighter and identified him by the irons found in his body the re- port was circulated among all the whalers far and near. - “Such an incident was reported by the ship Hector r of New Bedford. In Oc- tober, 1832, the boats were lowered and started after a large whale, but before they were within striking dis- tance the creature turned, stove one of the boats and threw its occupants into the sea. The Captain’s boat WA i NUR KET TY: VY : te ‘sc and with a terrific crash the British brig Indian and the three survivors were taken aboard. Five days later the ship Dauphin of Nantucket sighted a weather-beaten, tossing whaleboat, and bearing down upon her found Capt. Pollard and Charles Ramsdale still alive, the sole survivors of their boat’s crew. “The third boat was never heard from and the story of her occupants was never known, but those who were saved ultimately recovered and Capt. Pollard, in later years, was employed as a deckhand on Fulton's famous steamboat, the Hudson. “Somewhat similar, but with a far happier ending, was the case of the Ann Alexander of New Bedford, ‘Capt. John S. Deblois, which sailed on a whaling cruise on Jan. 1, 1858. “On Aug. 20 the mate's boat was fast to a whale when the creature suddenly turned, seized the boat in his jaws and smashed it to bits. The Captain at once hurried to the assistance of the struggling men, took them into his boat and headed for the ship. “Meanwhile the waterboat had been lowered and sent to assist the captain with his overcrowded boat, the crews were divided between the two boats and once more the indomitable whaiers attacked the whale, but SUNDAY MAGAZINE—-ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—-FEBRUARY 27, 1916, hurried to their rescue, but the furious, fighting whale dashed at it, seized it in his enormous armed jaw and chewed and smashed it to pieces. The mate, struggling in the water, was then seized by the creature and al- though bitten and chewed and badly wounded, he was finally released alive. “Meanwhile the other boats had drawn near and fear- lessly attacked the whale, and despite his ferocity and resistance the men succeeded in killing him. When he was cut up irons of the ship Barclay were found buried in him and he was thus identified as being a well-known fighter which had already destroyed several boats and men, among them the first mate of the Barclay, who had been killed three months previously. “The danger of being seized and bitten by a whale was only one of the many perils of the chase and numerous instances of men killed and injured in this manner are recorded. “The first instance of the sort recorded was in 1766, when a sperm whale rammed a boat, threw out the son of the captain and catching the unfortunate man, car- ried him off in his jaws. “More remarkable was the case of Marshall Jenkins, (Continued on Page 14.) 4 PS be i eka ae na ALS Pe eens: pies pe

NE morning, a fortnight after the double murder in the Boulevard Suchet, Don Luis Perenna dressed himself and went the rounds of his house. It was a comfortable and roomy eighteenth-century mansion, situated at the entrance to the Faubourg Saint- Germain, on the little Place du Palais-Bourbon. He had bought it, furnished, from a rich Hungarian, Count Malonyi, keeping for his own use the horses, carriages, motor cars, and taking over the eight servants and even _ the Count’s secretary, Mile. Levasseur, who undertook to manage the household and to receive and get rid of the visitors—journalists, bores and curiosity dealers— attracted by the luxury of the house and the reputa- tion of its new owner. After finishing his imspection of the stables and ga- rage, he walked across the courtyard and went up to his study, pushed open one of the windows and raised his head. Above him was a slanting mirror; and this mir- * rer reflected, beyond the courtyard and its surrounding wall, one whole side of the Place du Palais-Bourbon. “Bother!” be said. ‘Those confounded detectives are still there. And this bas been going on for a fortnight. I’m getting tir'd of this spying.” He sat down,-in a bad temper, to look throygh his let- ters. When he had finished, he rang the l. “Ask Mile. Levasseur to bring me the newspapers.” She had been the Hungarian Count’s reader as well as his secretary; and Perenna had trained her to pick out in the newspapers anything that referred to him, and to give him each morning an exact account of the proceed- ings that were being taken against Mme. Fauville. Always dressed in black, with a very elegant and graceful figure, she had at- tracted him from the first. She had an air of great dignity and a grave and thoughtful face which made it impossible to penetrate the secret of her soul, and which would have seemed austere had it not been framed in a cloud of fair curls, resisting all attempts at discipline and setting a halo of light and gayety around her. She read the reports relating to Mu.e. Fauville: and Don Luis could see that the police investigations were making no headway. Marie Fauville still kept to her first method, that of weeping, makin< a show of indignation and assuming en- tire ignorance of the facts upon which she was being examined. “It’s ridiculous,” he said aloud. “I have never seen anyone defend herself so clumsily.” “Still, if she’s innocent?” It was the first time that Mile. Levas- seur had uttered an opinion or rather a remark upon the case. Don Luis looked at ber in great surprise. “So you think her innocent, Madam- oiselle?” She seemed ready to reply and to ex- plain the meaning of her interruption. It was as though she were removing her impassive mask and about to allow her face to adopt a more animated expression under the impulse of her inner feelings. But she restrained herself with a visible effort, and murmured: “1 don't know. i have no views.’ there would be wanted something more than the unde- niable proof of his existence, which would not be im- possible. The most complicated wheels im the admin- istrative machine would have to be set in motion, and a decree obtained from the Council of State. “Now, it would seem that M. Velanglay, the Prime Minister, together with the Prefect of Police, is opposed to making any too minute inquiries capable of opening up a scandal which the authorities are anxious to avoid. Bring Arsene Lupin back to life? Recommence the struggle with that accursed scoundrel? Risk a fresh defeat and fresh ridicule? No, no, and again no! “And thus is brought about this unprecedented, inad- missible. inconceivable, disgraceful situation, that Ar- sene Lupin, the hardened thief, the impenitent criminal, the robber king, the emperor of burglars and swindlers, is able today, not clandestinely, but in the sight and hearing of the whole world, to pursue the most formida- ble task that he has yet under- taken, to live pub- licly under a name which is not his own, but * ; ' which he has in- contestably made his own, to de- stroy with impun- ity four persons who stood in his way, to cause the imprisonment of an inmocent wom- an against whom {SF © a FI WN : AA he himself has accumulated false evidence, and at the ‘“‘What! Tried to commit suicide’ — “Possibly,” he said, watching her with curiosity. ‘‘But you have a doubt; a doubt which would be permissible if it were not for the marks left by Mme. Fauville’s own teeth. Those marks, you see, are something more than a signature, more than a confession of guilt. And, as long as she is unable to give a satisfactory explanation of this point’’——— But Marie Fauville vouchsafed not the slightest ex- planation of this or of anything else. She remained im- penetrable. On the other hand, the police failed to dis- cover her accomplice or accomplices, or the man with the ebony walking stick and the tortoise-shell glasses whom the waiter at the Cafe du Pont-Neuf had described to Mazeroux and who seemed to have played a singularly suspicious part. In short, there was not a ray of light thrown upon the subject. Equally vain was all search for the traces of Victor, the Roussel sister’s first cousin,.who would have in- herited the Mornington bequest in the absence of any direct heirs. “Is that all?” asked Perenna. “No,” said Mile. Levasseur, “there is an article in the Echo de France”— “Relating to me?” » ® “I presume so, Monsieur. They Arrest Him?” “That concerns me,” he said, with a laugh. He took the newspaper and read: “Why do they not arrest him? Why go against logic and prolong an unnatural situation which no decent man can understand? This is the cecation apie every- body is asking and to which our imvestigations enable us to furnish a precise reply. “Two years ago, in other words, three years after the pretended death of Arsene Lupin, the police, having discovered or believing they had discovered that Arsene Lupin was really none other than one Floriani, born at Blois and since lost to sight, caused the register to be inscribed, on the page relating to this Floriani, with the word ‘Deceased,’ followed by the words, ‘Under the alias of Arsene Lupin.’ | “Consequently, to bring Arseng Lupin back to life, PAGE SIX It is called, ‘Why Don’t end of all, despite the protests of common. sense and thanks to an unavowed complicity, to receive the hun- dred millions of the Mornington legacy. “There is the ignominious truth in a nutshell. It is well that it should be stated. Let us hope, now that it stands revealed, that it will influence the future con- duct of events.” “At any rate, it will influence the conduct of the idiot who wrote that article,” said Lupin, with a grin. — He dismissed Mile. Lavasseur and rang up Maj. d’As- trignac on the telephone. “Is that you, Major? “Tee: Wak ie RT! “Have you read the article in the Echo de France?” “Yes.” “Would it bore you very much to call on that gentle- man and ask for satisfaction in my name?’ “Oh! A duel!” “It’s got to be, Major. All these sportsmen are weary- ing me with their lubrications. They must be gagged. This fellow will pay for the rest.”’ “Well, of course, if you’re bent on it”—— “Il am, very much.” \ \ Perenna speaking.” The preliminaries were entered upon withost “Saley_ The editor of the Echo de France declared that article had been sent in without a signature, typewrit- ten, and that it had been published without his knowl- edge; but he accepted the entire responsibility. That same day, at 3 o'clock, Don Luis Perenna, ac- companied by Maj. d’ Astrignac, another officer and a doctor, left the house in the Place du Palais-Bourbon in his car, and, followed by a taxi crammed with the de- tectives engaged in watching him, drove to the Pare des Prinees. The two adversaries took up their positions. At the second encounter, the editor of the Echo de France fell, wounded in the chest. The doctors examined the injured man. one of them rose and said: Presently Still followed by the detectives’ motor cab, Don Luis returned to the Faubourg Saint-Germain; and it was then that an incident occurred which was to puzzle him greatly and throw a most extraordinary light om the article in the Echo de France. In the courtyard of his house he saw two little puppies which belonged to the coachman and which were gen- erally confined to the stables. They were playing with a twist of red string which kept catching on to things. In the end, the paper round which the string was wound, appeared. Don Luis happened to pass at that moment. His eyes noticed marks of writing on the paper, and he mechanically picked it up and unfolded it. He gave a start. He had at once recognized the open- ing tines of the article printed in the Echo de France. And the whole article was there, written in ink, on ruled paper, with erasures, and with sentences added, struck out and begun anew. He called the coachman and asked him: “Where does this ball of string come from?” “The string, sir? Why, from the har- aess room, I think. It must have been that little she-devil ef a Mirza who”—— “And when did you wind the string round the paper?” “Yesterday evening, Monsieur.” “Yesterday evening. I see. And where is the paper from?” “Upon my word, Monsieur, | can’t say. I wanted something to wind my string on. I picked this up behind the coach- house, where they fling all the rubbish of the house to be taken into the street at night.” Don Luis pursued his investigations. He questioned or asked Mile. Levasseur to question the other servants. He discov- ered nothing; but one fact remained; the article in the Echo de France had been written, as the rough draft which he picked up proved, by somebody who lived in the house or who was in touch with one of the people in the house. All the remainder of the afternoon Don Luis continued anxious, annoyed by the mystery that surrounded him, incensed at his own imaction, and especially at that threatened arrest, which certainly caused him no uneasiness, but which hampered his movements. Accordingly, when he was told at about 10 o'clock that a man who gave the name of Alexandre insisted on seeing him, he had the man shown in; and when he found himself face to face with Mazeroux, but Mazeroux disguised beyond recogni- tion and huddled in an old cloak, he flung himself on him as on a prey, hustling and shaking him. “So, it's you, at last?” he cried. “Well, what did I tell you? You can’t make head or tail of things at the police office and you've come to fetch me! Confess it, you numskull! You've come to fetch me. Oh, how funny it is! Gad, I knew that you would never have the cheek to arrest me, and that the Prefect of Police would manage to calm the untimely ardor of that confounded Weber! To begin with, one doesn’t arrest a man whom one has need of. Come, out with it! Lord, how stupid you look!” “But, Chief,” spluttered Mazeroux, utterly nonplussed. “What! Must I drag the words out of you?- Come on! I'll make a start. It has to do with the man with the ebony walking stick, hasn’t it? The one we saw at the Cafe du Pont-Neuf on the day when Inspector Verot was murdered?” “Yes, it has.” “Have you found his traces?’ ee “Well, come along, find your tongue!” “It's like this, Chief. Someone else noticed him be- sides the waiter. There was another customer in the cafe; and this other customer, whom I ended by discover- ing, went out at the same time as our man and heard him ask somebody in the street which was the nearest underground station for Neuilly.”’ “Capital, that. And in Neuilly, by asking questions on every side, you ferreted him out?” “And even learned his name, Chief-Hubert Lautier of the Avenue du Roule. Only he decamped from there six months ago, leaving his furniture behind him and taking nothing but two trunks.” “What about the postoffice?” “We have been to the postoffice. One of the clerks recognized the description which we supplied him. Our man calls once every eight or ten days to fetch his ‘mail, which never amounts to much, just one or two let- ters. He-has-not been there for some time.” “Is the correspondence in his name?” “No, initials.” “Were they able to remember them?” “mn a Se” “Is that all?” “That is absolutely all that I have discovered. But one of my fellow officers succeeded in proving, from the evidence of two detectives, that a man carrying a silver- handled ebony walking stick and a pair of tortoise-shell glasses walked out of the Gare d’Auteuil on the evening of the double murder and went toward Renelagh. Re- member the presence of Mme. Fauville in that neigh- borhood at the same hour. And remember that the “It’s nothing. Three weeks’ rest, at most. Only a crime was committed round about midnight. I conclude third of an inch more, and he would have been done for.”” from this’’—— SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

But Sliver laughed him to scorn. She was as flect and airy miided When she came down from the dressing room she as a swallow when the mating season is farthest away. found Krug waiting for her. She made her nails ready for a eat-like defense, but to her stupefaction he lifted his hat to her! It was the first time she had ever re- ceived this tribute and it was overwhelming. And he said in his most sugary tones: “You cert’ny slipped one over on me. Me nob is buz- zin’ yet. But I like a girl’s got some fight in her. And you're light as a fedder, too. Gee, you're a pipe to lift. Dey’s a lot o’ tips I can give you dat’ll help some. Sup- posin’ you an’ me was to have dinner together, You must be ready for de eats after all de work you done.”. So she went with him to a restaurant a little less clean and a little more expensive than the dairy lunches that had marked her highest social arrival heretofore. Mr. Krug, as host, majestically went down the line: Oysters, soup, steak, fried potatoes, and pie. He urged Sliver to join him in a pitcher of beer, but she would not be persuaded. There had been too much beer in*her environs. She had carried too many pails of it up too many stairs. But oysters—these were almost her first, and they were as large as small hot-water bags. Each one of them was a problem. But she solved them all. She solved the soup, together with two slices of bread that she broke up in it, following Mr. Krug’s example. She ate the steak with the eager fangs of a young animal, and hurried the potatoes down in single file. Of the pie she left not a crumb and she drained two cups of coffee. Even Mr. Krug admired her triumph. He said: “Girlie, you’re the goods when it comes to the knife- and-fork dance. Dey won’t make no hash out of what you leave.’’ She winced a little at this and flashed back: “If you don’t like my style you ain’t gotta pay for I got the price of the check right here.” Krug was startled. “Gee, but you’re the hair-trigger kid! Why, I love to see you wallop a plate. Dat other broad dat’s leavin’ de show used te turn up her nose at everything I bought her.” : “Oh,” said Sliver cannily, “you think you're trainin’ me to take her place on the wire and off, do you? Well, you better change cars; we don’t use them kind of transfers on this line.”’ She shook off Krug’s further hospitality and went home alone. Her heavy feet could hardly lift her un- usual weight up the long stairs. Her last strength went in the task of wresting off her shoes and folding up her pitiful finery. Her soul was asleep before her lean hands had finished drawing the quilt about her thin and ropy little throat. The journey to New Jersey was the beginning of an era of travel. New Jersey, in the eyes of Sliver, had al- ways been a foreign country. She gave herself a last good breakfast in New York, that she might have pleas- ant memories of America. From the station at Paterson she and the other swal- lows lugged their heavy suitcases to a boarding house that was accounted the worst even in Paterson. After an hour in the theater to test the tackle and rehearse the music cues, the swallows flew boarding houseward for an early luncheon. That week was the birth of a new Sliver. She had food, food, food—three foods a day and a smack of sup- pe at a fascinating lunch wagon after the evening’s work was over. At her first matinee Sliver forgot most of her words, and the rest stuck in her parched throat. She could not keep step with the dancers, and when she was hoisted into the air she lost her balance and hung head down, kicking and sprawling till she was lowered. This convulsed the small audience so completely that the house manager begged Bruni to keep itin. The old man was insulted at the suggestion. His birds were artists, not clowns. He expended so much wrath on the manager that he had none left for Sliver. But he ex- plained to her that the sacrilege must not occur again and ordered Krug to give her a special rehearsal. On this account she could hardly refuse Krug’s invitation to supper after the show. She was as hungry at 11:30 as she had been before dinner, and as Krug watched her his admiration was tempered with anxiety. On the way home he carelessly slipped his arm about her waist and withdrew it promptly minus four or five small pieces excavated by her ready nails. He was so startled that he apologized. The next evening he was permitted to feed her only “on condition that ms quit what she called his “damnonsense.” This was the basest ingratitude in his eyes and the sup- per series ended. Lacking his support, she paid for her own suppers. In the mornings she bought herself beak- ers of ice cream soda, nut sundaes with maple syrup spread over and boxes of “chorklut pep’munts.” At the end of the week she found that her wealth was not so elastic as her appetite. She had no money to pay the small bill for her laundry when the stage door man brought it. She had nothing to pawn and she was forced to borrow from another swallow against pay day. The fourth week found the swallows nested in Red Bank. The lonely Krug, watching the infuriatingly elu- sive Sliver, was startled to realize how pretty she was. He had understood the secret of the curves in her nether members; they had been stitched in, with results that. might have bewildered an anatomist. But those pipe-stem bare arms of hers had grown actually round and full. Those dangerous elbow spikes were blunter. His experienced arms tested her weight when the signal came to hoist. Yes, she was heavier. And so was his heart. He approached her again with a supper invi- tation. She accepted graciously with a round-cheeked smile that made him gasp. Her appetite was undimin- ished. On the way home he said: “Say, girlie, you’re not so skinny as you was, are you?” “So the other goils was tellin’ me,” she said. “Yes- terday I had a let out me skoit at the waist and tonight 1 left off me plumpers.” “You’re sure one armful now,” he said, and made bold to prove it. She gave him her elbow in the solar plexus, and when he began breathing again he realized that she had not improved so much as he thought. Sliver grew prettier as she grew plumper and Krug began to feel an awe of her, as if a little, tight-clenched it. ee? MAGALINE--$F.

Life was one long festival; her appetite grew almost lyrical. She kept candy in her make-up box and in her bedroom.

Then one evening she heard two men in a stage box discussing the swallows. She heard herself referred to as ‘‘the fat one on the left.” She mistrusted her ears. Sliver felt a knife of terror in her heart. She re- soived that she needed more exercise. After breakfast she took a long walk. She tired quickly and her breath was gone so soon that she had to pause for an ice cream soda. She invested a penny in a weighing machine. Her 90 pounds were 115! The traditional limit of weight for a swallow was 100 pounds. That night she noted that the other swallows were kinder to her than for a week past. This was alarming. Krug resumed his old insolence and patronage. This was convincing. He invited her to supper, and somehow she dared not refuse. When he asked her what she wanted he said: “Go easy on the heavy stuff, girlie. Take it from me, it’s easier putting on weight than pushin’ it off.” She ate heavily to prove that he could not coerce her with his advice. As they walked to her boarding house, his arm slid round her waist and she had a hard fight to tear it away. “Stop it,” she gasped breathlessly. hate you.” “That goes double then, girlie,” he answered trucu- lently. “I guess I won’t trouble you long.” “You mean you're goin’ to quit the show?” she said, all too hopefully. “Me! It ain’t me!” he laughed. “You ain’t de first swaller dat’s been crdwded out because she weighed in too heavy. I’ve saw more’n a dozen of youse livin’ skele- tons swell out into fat tadies and then blow. I been doin’ overtime histin’ you and sayin’ nuttin’ to nobuddy.

Of course, if you was pal wit’ me, I might go troo wit’ it, but—well, sleep on it, kiddo, and gimme your answer tomorra. A woid to de wise is officious.” Sliver slept on it that night, but she slept ill. She fell to work on all the exercises she could remember from the newspaper accounts of how to get thin. She refused her breakfast and fled from the house, where the aroma of waffles seemed to have claws to clutch at ber and hate her back. She walked and ran, sin*ing down to rest on packing eases or other sidewalk obstructions.

When she got back to the stage door ber feet : ee heavy, but her head was light. Outside a cigar store, near the alley leading to the stage door, there stood a weighing machine. Sliver did not know that these whim- sical devices vary not only from one another, but from themselves also. Aj] she knew was that the same solemn dial that yesterday registered her weight as 115 peunds, now, after a night and a day of fasting and pilgrimage, proclaimed her weight at 117. The cyrtain rose and the piano roared and the swal- lows began to sing and dance. Sliver strove to do her part, but the floor writhed and the walls wiggled and the audience eddied. She heard the other swallows up- braiding her. The audience was openly ridiculing her, and a few women were whooping and rocking with laughter. Bruni was charging back from the front of the house, when the audience suddenly hushed its Sliver collapsed; her joints gave way one by one from her ankles up, and she lay outspread on the stage, a pitiful, broken-winged bird. The other swallows stared, then moved to her aid. But just at that moment the cué arrived for their flight. The men at the wires had seen nothing of what had hap- pened and they bent to their task. The advancing swal- lows felt themselves dragged backward irresistibly, then up they went into the air. And Sliver was lifted, too. Still aswoon and all limp, she was gathered up like a lay figure and carried high, hanging doubled downward from the waist, her head against her knees and her hands flapping against her feet. The stage manager rang the curtain down just as Bruni reached the scene. He was horrified at the inter- ruption to his sacred rites, but his heart melted at the sight of Sliver. Always a showman first, he ordered the rest of his flock to stand by to continue, and, ta’ ing Sliver in his arms as she was lowered to the stage, un- hooked the wire from her belt. Her weight amazed him _ and he staggered under it to the wings, groaning: “Per l'amor di dio; my svallow is a goose!” He turned her over to Krug, who rushed to his as- sistance; then he made haste to the footlights to explain to the audience that the swallow was al! right tomorrow and the leddies and jontlamen need not be alarmed. He backed off into the curtain wire and bowed himself slow- ly through a narrow crevice. The eurtain went up and the Engagement Extraordinary went on. She made haste to get away from the theater before the other swallows came off the stage to bombard her with questions. She darted down the stairs and out of the stage door as the swallows hopped from the stage. Krug caught up with her and took her well-filled sleeve. He suspected the cause of her distress; his first word was an irresistible plea: “Looka year, kiddo, what you need ain't no medicine or no booze. Plain food and lots of it is what you want. Am I hep?” “Yep,” she sighed. And he steered her into a restau- rant over whose door hung one electric word, a gleaming imperative “ E A T.” Krug did not seek to lure Sliver with cocktails or liquors. He offered her a life of work and plenty of food. And she fell for it. He murmured to her zal- lantly that he didn’t mind how heavy she got. He'd put on a double wire if necessary, and a block and tackle big enough to hoist a safe. If only she’d treat him white, he’d go into de bakery business. There was a moon leering down at them as they left the restaurant; a well fed moon, like a great pie in the sky. A sense of luxurious well being filled Sliver’s heart and she thought kindly even of Krug. Until they reached a heavily timbered street, where the walk led through a subway of gloom. And there he took his bargain into his arms and crushed her to him with gorilla violence, and pressed back her head and took the kiss she had promised him. And more than one, with increasing ferocity until she smothered and fought him and wrenched away and took four strips of skin from his nose with her finger nails and beat him on the mouth till it bled. As she ran she heard him sputtering and calling into the dark: “I’ll get you for this! You'll see! I'll get you!” As she ran up the steps of the boarding house and darted through the door she collided with Mr. Bruni. At the sight of him she was overcome with guilt and shame and remorse. She flung herself into his arms and em- braced as much of him as she could encompass. Amazed by the onslaught and, the outburst, he led her into the empty parlor, settled her in a chair, sat down by ker and asked: “Leetle keed, you are seek? home? Huh?’ “Tt’s meself I’ve bad news from,” Sliver whimpered, and with that beginning told him all; poured out the lit- tle history of her saccharine past, showed how the bale- ful habit of food had fastened its tentacles upon her till, now she was lost beyond redemption. Poor, fat old Bruni, who had a smile for almost every- thing, did not smile at this tragedy; he did not mate fun of Sliver or minimize her torment. He had gone through the same conflict and lost. - There was no ex- cuse she could have given that could have made so straight for his heart. He took Sliver’s dimpled hand into the cushions of his and spoke with as much sin- cerity as if he were consoling and counseling a repentant Magdalene. “Leetia keed, you have right to c commence-a to begin.

Why, you gave it to me yeurself; Boulevard Richard-Wallace, No. 8. Go! And don’t look such a fool.” He made him spin round on his heels, took hffm by the shoulders, pushed him to the door, and handed him over, quite flabbergasted, to a footman.. He himself went out a few minutes later, dragging in his wake the detectives attached to his person, left them posted on sentry duty outside a block of flats with a double entrance, and took a motor cab to Neuilly. He went along the Avenue de Madrid on foot and turned down the Boulevard Richard-Wallace, opposite the Bois de Boulogne. Mazeroux was waiting for him in front of a courtyard contained within the very high walls of the adjoining property. “Is this No. 8?” “Yes, Chief. but tell me .how’’—— He passed his arm through the sergeant’s. “Listen, Alexandre, and profit by my words. Re- member this, when a person is choosing initials for his address at a poste restante he doesn’t pick them at random, but always in such a way that the letters convey a meaning to the person correspond- ing with him, a meaning whith will enable that other person easily to remember the address.” “And in this case?” “In this case, Mazeroux, a man like myself, who knows Neuilly and the neighborhood of the Bois, is at once struck by those three letters, ‘B. R. W.’ and especially by the ‘W.,’ a foreign letter, an En- glish letter. So that in my mind’s eye, instantly, as in a flash, I saw the three letters in their logical place as initials at the head of the words for which they stand. I saw the ‘B’ of ‘boulevard’ and the ‘R’ and the English ‘W’ of Richard-Wallace. And I came to the boulevard Richard-Wallace. And, that, my dear sir, explains the milk in the cocoanut. ‘And what do you think, Chief?” “I think nothing. I am looking out. I am build- ing up a theory on the first basis that offers a probable theory. And I say to myself Mazeroux, that this is a devilish mysterious little hole and that this house—Hush! Listen!” He pushed Mazeroux into a dark corner. had heard a noise, the slamming of a door. Footsteps crossed the courtyard in front of the house. The lock of the outer gate grated. Some- one appeared and the light of a street lamp fell full on his face. “Dash it all,” muttered Maseroux, “I believe you are right.” “It’s he, Chief. Look at the black stick and the bright handle. And did you see the eyeglass—and tthe beard? Whaf a oner you are, Chief!” “Calm yourself and let’s go after him.” The man crossed the Boulevard Richard-Wallace and was turning into the Boulevard Maillot. He was walking pretty fast, with his head up, gayly twirling his stick. He lit a cigarette. At the end of the Boulevard Maillot the man passed the octroi and entered Paris. The railway station of the outer circle was close by. He went to it and, still followed by the others, stepped into a train that took them to Auteuil. “That’s funny,” said Mazeroux. “He's doing ex- actly what he did a fortnight ago. This is where he was seen.” The man now went along the fortifications. In a quarter of an hour he reached the Boulevard Suchet and almost immediately afterward the house in which M. Fauville and his son had been murdered. He climbed the fortifications opposite the house and stayed there for some minutes, motionless, with his face to the front of the house. Then continuing his road he went to La Muette and plunged into the dusk of the Bois de Boulogne. “To work and boldly!” said Don Luis,\ quickening his pace. Mazeroux stopped him. “What do you mean, Chief?” ‘“‘Well, catch him by the throat! There are two of us; we couldn’t hope for a better moment.” ad They “it’s het” “What! Why that’s impossible!” “Impossible? Are you afraid? Very well, I'll do it by myself.” “Look here, Chief, you’re not serious!”’ “Why shouldn’t I be serious?” “Because one can’t arrest a man without a reason.” “Without a reason? A scoundrel like this? A mur- derer? What more do you want?” ‘A warrant. I haven’t a warrant.” Mazeroux’s accent was so full of conviction, and the answer struck Don Luis as so comical that he burst out laughing. “You have no ‘warrant? Poor little chap! soon show you if I need a warrant!” “You'll show me nothing,” cried Mazeroux, hanging on to his companion’s arm. “You shan’t touch the man.” Don Luis mastered his rage. He felt that all his arguments would be shattered to pieces against the ser- geant’s obstinacy, and that, if necessary, Mazeroux would go to the length of defending the enemy against him. He went home, furious, sick of an adventure in which bre had not had elbow room, and in which he had had to submit to the will, or, rather, to the weakness of others. But next morning when he woke up his longing to see th. police lay hold of the man with the ebony stick, and especially the feeling that his assistance would be of use, impelled bh. to dress as quickly as he could. Just then mM. "reux rang up and asked to speak to him. He rushed w Mttle telephone box which his predecessor had fitted up on the first floor, in a dark recess that communicated only with his study, and switched on the electric ‘light. “Is that you, Alexandre?” “Yes, Chief.

No one ever calis except a veiled lady who has paid him three visits since he’s been here. The housekeeper was not able to see what she was like. As for him, she says he’s a scholar, who spends his time reading and working.” “And have you a warrant?” “Yes, we're going to use it.” “T’ll come at once.” “You can’t! We've got Weber at our head. Oh, by the way, have you heard the news about Mme. Fau- ville?” “About Mme. Fauville?” | “Yes, she tried to commit suicide last night” “What! Tried to commit suicide!” Perenna had uttered an exclamation of astonishment and was very much surprised to hear, almost at the same time, another cry, like an echo, at his elbow. Without ie > OO OL Mo = < OM me letting go the receiver, he turned round and saw that Mile. Levasseur was in the study a few yards away from him, standing with a distorted and livid face. Their eyes met. He was on the point of speaking to her, but she moved away, without leaving the room, how- ever. “What the devil was she listening for?” Don Luis wondered. “And why that look of dismay?” Meanwhile, Mazeroux continued: “She said, you know, that she would try to kill her- self.” “But how did she do it?” Perenna asked. “T’ll tell you another time. They’re calling me. What- ever you do, Chief, don’t come.” “Yes,”’ he replied, firmly, “I’m coming. After all, the least I can do is to be in at the death, seeing that it was I who found the scent. But don’t be afraid. I sha.l keep in the background.” “Then. hurry, Chief. We're delivering the attack in 10 minutes.” “I'll be with you before that.” He quickly hung up the receiver and turned on his heel to leave the telephone box. The next moment he had flung himself against the farther wall. was about to pass out he had heard something click above his head and he but barely had the time to leap back and escape being etruck by an iron curtain which fell in front of him with a terrible thud. Another second and the huge mass would have crushed him. He could feel it whizzing by his head. And he had never before experienced the anguish of danger so intensely. After a moment of genuine fright, in which he stood as though petrified, with his brain in a whirl, he recov- ered his coolness and threw himself upon the obstacle. But it at once appeared to him that the obstacle was un- surmountable. It was a heavy metal pane), not made of plates or lathes fastened one to the other, but formed of a solid slab, massive, firm and strong and covered with the sheen of time, darkened here and there with patches of rust. On either side and at the top and bottom the edges of the panel fitted in a narrow groove, which covered them hermetically. He was a prisoner mM a sudden fit of rage he banged at the metal with hfe fists. He remembered that Mlle. Levasseur was in the study. If she had not yet left the room—and surely ste could not have left it when the thing happened—she would hear the noise. She was bound to hear it. She would be sure to come back, give th2 alarm and rescue him. He listened. He shouted. No reply. His voice died _ SUNDAY MAGAZINE- -ST.

He wants to see things for himself. The ' whole affair interests him enormously. So, for- ward! Are you ready, men? I’m going to ring.” The bell sounded; and the housekeeper at once came and half opened the gate. The meeting took place on the first floor.. The man had come down, fully dressed, with his hat on his head; and the deputy. chief roared: “Stop! Hands up! Hubert Lautier?” The man seemed disconcert- ed. Five revolvers were leveled at him. And yet no sign of fear showed in his face; and he . simply said: “What do you want, Mon- sieur? What are you here for?” “We are here in the name of the law, with a warrant for your arrest.” “But it’s absurd!” said the man...“‘It’s incredible! What does it mean? What for?” ea They took him by both arms, without his offering the least : resistance, pushed him into a fairly large room, containing no furniture but three rush- bottomed chairs, an armchair and a table covered with big books. The man made no protest. While the two detectives held him by the collar, he seemed to = be reflecting, as though he were trying to weidereiaad the secret causes of an arrest for which he was totally unprepared. He had an intelligent face, a reddish-brown beard and a pair of blue-gray eyes which now and again showed a certain hardness of expression behind his glasses. His broad shoulders and powerful neck pointed to physical strength. M. Desmalions arrived and, while watching the pris- oner’s face, talked in a low voice with the deputy chief and received the particulars of the arrest. The prisoner had not uttered a word, but still wore a thoughtful look, as though trying to understand the euenaticabie events of the last few minutes. Neverthe- less, when he realized that the newcomer was none other than the Prefect of Police, he raised his head and looked at M. Desmalions, who asked him: Bee “It is unnecessary to tell you the cause of your ar- ~~ rest, I presume?” : He replied, in a deferential tone: “Excuse me, Monsieur le Prefet, but I must ask you, on the contrary, to inform me. I have not the least idea of the reason. Your detectives have made a grave mistake which a word, no doubt, will be enough to set right. That word I wish for, I insist upon”—— The Prefect shrugged his shoulders and said: “You are suspected of taking part in the murder of Fauville, the eivil engineer, and his son Edmond.” “Is Hippolyte dead?” Po The cry was spontaneous, almost unconscious: a bid es wildered cry of dismay from a man moved to the depths of his being. And his dismay was supremely strange, his question, trying to make them believe his ignorance, supremely unexpected. He repeated the question in a hoarse voice, trembling all over as he spoke. “Is Hippolyte dead? What are you saying’? Is it pos- sible that he can be dead? And how? Murdered? Ed- mond, too?” The Prefect once more shrugged his shoulders. “The mere fact of your calling M. Fauville by his Christian name shows that you knew him intimately. And, even if you were not concerned in his murder, it has been mentioned often enough in the newspapers during the last fortnight for you to know of it.” “I never read a newspaper, Monsieur le Prefet.”’ “What! You mean to tell me”’—— ' “It may sound improbable, but it is quite true.

He slyly fell to “twelve,” not knowing that he had doubled the sum in her eyes and quadrupled her latest wage. Twelve dollars a week!

Mr. Bruni, seeing that she was wavering, pressed his cause. “You come see my svallows, now—right here, huh?” It is believed that no layman exists so rich as not to be elated at the thought of entering a theater on a pass.

She found the flat empty; she judged from the signs of struggle that her parents had had another argument. The flat- iron had left another dent in the wall and its nose was covered with plaster. A neighbor informed Sliver that her father and mother had left the house for a ride in the picnic wagon the city kept at their disposal. “The neigh- bor guessed that they would doubtless “get the island for another thirty.” So Sliver did not leave the $3, but merely a little note: “dear ma I been fired at the store but got another Jobe in Nu Jearsie wil rite soon your loveing doughtre.”’ Then she sped to the theater and asked for Mr. Bruni. She was referred to the stage door. This was too glor- ious. She found Mr. Bruni and he led her up an iron stairway to a tenement of dressing rooms and intro- duced her to his flock. The swajlows sat about in their feathers and their unmitigated make-up. Some were mending their plumage, one was reading a book, one was sewing at a child’s clothing, and one was indus- triously masticating gum. At Mr. Bruni’s request the gum-chewer, who was about to leave the troupe, permitted Sliver to try on her cos- tume. An extra pair of tights was found and Mr. Bruni withdrew while Sliver made the change behind a chair.~- With her arms bare and *r shanks in hose a world too wide, she was unimaginably thin. When she doffed her splendor Sliver was permitted to sit in the wings and watch the swallows do their supper- turn to an almost empty house. It astounded her to see the mechanism at work and to realize that the lightly flitting swallows were raised and lowered on wires and pulleys controlled by stagehands in overalls. Such ro- mance in front of the scene, such realism back of it! She slept that night in the deserted flat, and the next morning she was awake at the first streak of soiled day- break that pierced the dirty window. She leaped from her slumber and pirouetted and danced, took flying leaps from the edge of the bed and from the table, and prac- ticed aviation till the neighbors thought her father and mother must have escaped from the law and resumed their debates. : Sliver heated as much water as the clothes boiler would hold and bathed in it, and made the neatest toilet: she could. She borrowed an old telescope bag from a wealthy neighbor and packed what little wardrobe she possessed. She reached the theater before the nightwatchman was awake. The hours'she must survive before Mr. Bruni arrived seemed unendurable. When Mr. Bruni finally arrived and knocked at the door she felt gusts of fright sweeping across her skin. She was ashamed to go out before him. But no one was present save Mr. Bruni and the youth who had hoisted the swallow she was to supersede. This youth Mr. Bruni introduced as his “asseestant, Ned Krook.”’ Mr. Krug looked Sliver over brazenly and snickered. She flared with modesty at his gaze and with wrath at his smile, but she said nothing. Mr. Bruni laid off his hat and his fur coat and his other coat and taught Sliver the dance steps. It needed all her reverence for him to keep down her amusement at his appearance as he flung his barrel-like body this way or that and kicked up his short, fat, almost kneeless legs. She was a trial to his temper, for she had no tradition, instinct or train- ing in the dance and he had no breath or agility. As Ned Krug was buckling the harness on Sliver he murmured, “You two was cert’ny some scream; fat old gander tryin’ to learn a squab to dance a turkey trot. But you're all right, girlie: you and me’s a sketch. We'll have some swell times togedder, won't we?” “Yes, we won't we!"’ was Sliver’s only answer. Krug liked her haughty manner. He mumbled, “Sure we will. I'm batty about you and you'll find me a regular feller.” He kept his hands about her waist longer than seemed necessary and Sliver gave him a smack in the face. It was so loud that Mr. Bruni, at the opposite side of the stage, turned to see if a pulley had broken. She went up kicking and swirling. She was out of Krug’s reach, but more than ever in his power. He gave her one or two sickening lurches to emphasize this fact and she was frightened beyond screaming. But she was even more afraid of being returned to her old life.

Faust mansion, 1 Portland place. Woven in Flanders in the fifteenth cen- tury for the royal house of Spain, it has passed through many hands until Mr. Faust obtained it. It is 21 feet 5% inches wide and 11 feet 10% inches in height and includes 38 figures, some of them being of life size. It portrays one of the most thrilling dramas of the Old Testament, the story of King David and Bathsheba, beautiful wife of Uriah, the Hittite soldier. The tapestry originally formed part of a collection of Flemish art treasures belonging to the Kings of Spain, and for a long time was in the royal palace at Madrid. About 50 years ago, a M. Le Francois, a French engineer, bought it and took it to France where it remained in his chateau at Vierville (Calvados) until recently. Its value is not easy to learn. Among connojsseurs it is said that $100,000 would be a fair figure; Its present owner, however, declines to discuss the matter of cost in connection with his treasure. Old as it is, it is still remarkable for the richness of its coloring and for the limning of the figures. They seem almost to stand out in high relief against the background. In composition it is a masterpiece. ‘Silk was employed in its construction and gives it a brilliant appearance. It is one of the most perfect of the fifteenth century tapestries in existence. Another of the same set, depict- ing scenes in the life of David, has long been considered one of the choicest treasures of the museum at Brussels. The Biblical narrative of this ancient romance is to be Sea an LEHSABRE QlO x Pee found in the second book of Samuel, beginning with the eleventh chapter. It will be remembered that King David was walking onthe roof of his royal house one evening when he observed Bathsheba at her bath and became so enamored of her that he lost no time in ascertaining who she was and having her brought to him. When the amour could no longer be concealed, David sent to Joab, commander of his army then fighting the Ammonites, and ordered that Uriah be sent to Jerusalem at once. The wily monarch tried twice in vain to reunite Jriah and his wife, but Uriah was a bluff soldier of the time, and refused to go to his own home while his com- panions were suffering the hardships of the field. David sent him back to Joab with a letter, instructing the commander to put Uriah in the forefront of the battle so that he might be slain. The thing fell out as arranged. When David learned of Uriah’s death, he again sent for Bathsheba and made her his wife. A child was born to them soon after. The King was not, however, to go unpunished for this great sin. Nathan, the prophet, denounced him for it to his face and promised him that the child would die. David supplicated the Lord in vain, for the child did die. Yet there was a measure of consolation in it after all, for Bathsheba bore David another son, destined to become the most brilliant ruler of all Israel, Solomon. The tapestry is really divided into three sections. In the center of the composition, David and Bathsheba are standing on a flowered carpet in front of a richly decorated double throne. The King’s face is bearded; his hands are clasped together with the fingers interlaced, the head raised towards heaven. He is clad in a heavy mantle lined with red over a blue doublet, ornamented with gold embroidery of a large pattern, and round his waist is a belt of gold work. A collar of precious stones crosses his breast. The shoes are of cloth of gold, ornamented with pearls. A ee —— AR EAT EL EE IIE ELE LEE IO ES IIE SL LIES IO OL

On the border of the garment, where it touches the left leg, is written the word, ‘‘David.” Bathsheba stands near the King, her arms crossed over her breast in a submissive manner, her head slightly bowed. «She wears a robe with large sleeves, lined with red, which is covered by a mantle with an ermine collar and bordered with the same fur. The collar is fastened with a gold chain and two clasps. A similar clasp fastens her girdle. On _ her head she wears a padded cap covering a veil. Important as are these two personages, even more im- portant is the figure of Nathan, standing in the foreground, his right hand upraised in a sweeping gesture, his face looking upward as if he were reading the heavens. There is a paper in the left hand. Seated near him is a young woman, apparently looking at the prophet.with astonish- ment. It is this group which gives the tapestry its title, “The Prophecy of Nathan.” The left-hand section shows David sending Uriah forth as the unconscious bearer of his own death warrant. The King is wearing the same garb as in the central part. His right hand holds his royal scepter, while his left is ex- tending that celebrated letter to Joab—a letter composed by the same man who wrote the Psalms and destined to as dedthless a memory, although for different reasons, as the Psalms themselves. Uriah is simply dressed and is bowing before the King in proper humility. Behind and surrounding the pair are four men-at-arms in different dresses. The right-hand section shows Uriah delivering the fatal message to Joab. The latter, that stern, obedient soldier, who never faltered in his duty as he understood it, and who afterwards rebuked David to his face for his leniency towards his traitorous son, Absalom, is clad in armor, over which is a sober-colored but rich costume. He has just left his tent and is escorted by two men-of-arms, bearing lances, and two nobles. He has advanced towards Uriah os . : ea > pie ~~ ns x . 32 Se . . ms ~~ RESERPINE ROL AL ORL II LER EOL SRG LIE is Is BS ONO Ye it BS os pera eo SREOROSSE IIL OR Par NE OF oY & s ~ * , io = Pie ? , bs 9] . 2 » P ch . o , : i y : 4 . . _* Aas ey as - s - > . noo Sp, TORO ee nO MOO ALEPPO po I ERIN nat ah pokes. ane een poo Re: < aa : i : F % N4 i ; ‘ d ‘ .

These two subordinate panels are merely set as contrasts to the principal picture, which they /serve to accentuate. Manifestly everybody present is more interested in what Nathan has to say than in the royal lovers.’ In a group to the right, near the center, is a young woman, gorgeously appareled, sitting in an armchair of blue velvet decorated with gold. Another young woman leans towards her: seated in front of them is a lord, who appears to be explaining the words of the prophet. Behind this group a lord and lady have fixed their eyes on Nathan. Further to the right are four other persons in rich costumes, two men and two women. To the left of Nathan there is a couple standing a little back of him and between them and the end of the tapestry are three more lords and three ladies. The fore- ground is covered with plants and flowers. The whole is enclosed in its original border, composed of garlands of foliage, forming part of the design. Outside of-the wonderful workmanship, the tapestry is unmistakably the creation of a genuine artist. His figures make the whole story vivid. The courtiers have surrounded the royal pair to render them the homage of adulation. The bride is happy and. proud and the bridegroom has led her out with the air of a conqueror. Into the crowd of ,.merrymakers stalks the stern figure of the Man of God. He does not note the graciousness of the new Queen or the majesty of her husband. He only sees a poor, wronged man, treacherously sent to his doom. His duty is gear, A black sin has been committed and he must rebuké it. Stretching his hand towards heaven, he utters bitter words of condemnation; he pronounces the doom that shall blast the first fruits of this wicked mar- riage. Truly a strange greeting for a bridal! Of all the personages in this group, old Nathan is by far the most striking and well he should be. It was not a safe thing to rebuke a mighty King of Israel in those days, as the Biblical annals of the time so fully show.
