CASAS GRANDES, March 27. by wire- :e8s to Columbus, N. eo who :s ileeing before American cavalry men somewhere in the district between Namiquipa and the foothills of the Si- ‘rva Tarahumares, is increasing band by force, according to army ports today. The bandit chieftain seized 3> young men and.boys in El Valle, 65 miles south of here and forced them io accompany his column. Half of the Cun- stitutionalist garrison at Namiquipa, «bout 60 miles south of here. has dis- appeared, and its suspected that some of them, at least, also have joined Vilia. Utmost haste is being made in the flight toward the mountains which Villa is nearing rapidly, neither man nos horses being spared. It is‘ known that he is practically without supplies «and ammunition and it is reported that he °s attempting to reach the reighborh.od where he has ammunition cached in tiree places, Peons in the district through which he has passed recently say that his men are ravenously hungry and are prac- iically in a state of starvation. Dead and dying horses discarded in the flignt found aimost daily by American troops, eight being discovered toda,. The haste which the bandit is makinz in his flight would indicate that the American forces are close on his heels, but Gen.

The nature of the country it was pointed out, makes it difficult for any force to surround ef- fectively a small band in the mountains with passes and trails well known to the bandits, offering a means of escape. While it was. understood that Gen ershing does not attempt to predict the length of time American troops !nay be in Mexico, it- was intimated ihat the period may extend into months. lteports received from the front indi- cated also that with moderating weath- e; throughout Chihuahua, American troops are not suffering so greatly trom tie cold, for which they were not equipped. b\ people place tint up, either Sheriff at Douglas, Ariz., Finds No ilostile Preparations Across Border. DOUGLAS, Ariz., March 27.—Declar- ing that he wished to assure the people of the United States and those of Doug- las in particular that the de facto Gov- ernment of Sonora was acting in good faith, Gen. P. Elias Calles, Military ‘;,overnor of the state, invited Sheriff Hianrry C. Wheeler of Cochiz County, Ariz., to visit Cabullona and_= other teints in northeastern Sonora where (arranzga troops are located. “if the Sheriff or a committee of citi- zens will inspect our_camps for them- :elves they will see that we ure mak- no plans that it is believed can be ” the Governor stated rg hiaced as hostile, s esterday. " Sheriff Wheeler visited Gen. Calles at the latter’s headquarters in Agua Prie- ta, the Mexican town opposite here, t» discuss reports of alarming nature that -ad been circulated by persons in Dovg- les. At the request of Gen. Calles, rheriff Wheeler made a tour through: out the town, inspecting the old de fensive works erected last fall when Villa invaded the state and the quarters of the Mexican soldiers. Upon his return to Douglas, the Sheriff stated that he was convinced that Gen, Calles was doing everything in his power to allay apprehension and that not one foot of trench nor ans wire entanglements had been prepared ty the Mexican soldiers. Four American Refugees From Tor- reon Arrive at Monterey. EL PASO, Tex., March 27.~—The four remaining women and children of the American colony at Torreon, sent out of that city by the British Vice Consul, Patrick O’Hea, who has taken charge of American interests following the de rarture of the United States consular agent, have arrived at Monterey. They brought a story of conditions of «narchy in the district between Torreun and Monterey. A box car was all the accommodation they could get and al- rost through the entire journey they were subjected to a running fire from bandits of mounted Villistas, who racod a Slongside the train, exchanging volleys dh -- a ith the Carranza guard supplied by ‘yen.

M., March 26.— Trains of auto trucks which rush the bulk of supplies to the front at the rate of 14 miles an hour, are a new branch of the service. They run in lines of 10 to a dozen each and tney keep on che move Gay and night. The organization o* these trains has required quick work in Columbus, Their operation across the sand hills and over the treacherous mazes of Chihuahua has been full of Auto pl Runs plait ato otek OP” RNP PA”, 9 gh den Sey 0 Refreshing themselves and refilling canteens at an inviting stream. thrills. Their tops are always visible above the gray and green chapparal, their bulk is impressive and their speed, comlined with the rifles of the guards who ride on top of the loads, make them iteem dangerous engines of offense. While the gveat trucks have, to some extent, master2d the desert, the lighter motor cycles have been hampered for speedy dispatch work in North Chilua- hua. For the first 30 miles of road tak- en by the transports there is not a nab- itation to be seen. In the first /5 miles its passes only two small Mexican vil- lages. At their campfires at night along the road the American soldiers sing Broadway songs, out of sight and hear- ing of any Mexican observer. Few of the thousands of troops enter- ing Mexico saw any Mexicans until they were close to Villa’s supposed hiding place. Even if Mexicans should cross the mountain ridges which bound botn sides of the American road, they would scarcely ever catch sight of the army for the army went into this chase stripped for speed. Usually the onls sheltering of the soldiers are the fleid ‘‘dog tents,’’ just large enough for a man to die down in. Long dry grass frequently hide all except the tops ef these tents. The large base camps are supplied with the usual conical brown army tents, but along the lines of communl- cation where important patrol work must be done it is not unusuai to come within a few paces of a camp before discovering its presence. Few Mexicans have ventured at night into the vicin- itv. Three who were discovered Tues- day night near a large camp mounted horses and galloped away as & patrol approached them. The most overworked men along the military road are the camp cooks. At all hours of the night pack trains and automobile trains, some with as many as 50 hungry men aboard, watch for signs of a roadside camp. When one is sighted they yell for the cook to make coffee.

You have noticed, no doubt, that any cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the flow of mucous amazes you that such objectionable matter could find lodgment in your head. To ignore this catarrh when the cold subsides is wrong because it slowly injures the linings of the nasal pas- Sages and clogs them up. To correct catarrh, cleanse the nostrils with a solution of warm water and salt, insert vaseline on retiring, and take a spoonful of Scott’s Emulsion after meals. Scott's acts through the blood to feed the tissues, and contains soothing glycerine to heal the sensitive membranes. It is pleasant totake. No alcohol. Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield, N.

Prof. James Mark Baldwin and Mrs. Baldwin, Americans who were on the Sussex, were saved, it was announcet today. They are at the Hotel Sussex at Wimereux, a short distance north of Boulogne. Miss Elizabeth Baldwin, their daughter, was badly injured and is in a hospital at the same place. Joshua Dickinson Armitage of New York is in a hospital at Dover, accord- ing to a dispatch just received from there. He badly injured, but prob- ably will recover. The following letter written by Baldwin and dated Wimereux, March 25, has been received by Ronald Har- per, ‘American lawyer in Paris, member of the firm of Boardmen & Platt of New York: “Dear Harper—Knowing you knew we were coming on Friday, March 24, I write to tell you we are all safe, but Elizabeth is seriously injured. We are here with her in the hospital. Will ,ou kindly spread the news there?” Ship Torpedoed, Official ~ is Statemegt Says. ‘There is no manner of doubt what- ever that the channel steamship Suse sex was torpedoed without warning,” says an official statement issued here last night based upon affidavits made by American survivors. John Hearley, Albany, N. Y., a Press Association correspondent, deposes, that statement says, ‘“‘That on Friday, about 5 o’clock in the afternoon, while a dozen Americans were watching from the bridge. a great explosion occurred in the forepart of the vessel without warn- ing, and that three Americans at least saw the passage of the torpedo. “Samuel S. Bemis of Harvard Univer- sity, deposes that the explosion occurred without the slightest warning to show there was the slightest danger, and many persons were thrown into tne sea, that some were killed and some wound- ed, that he saw bodies on the bridge of the Sussex and that while being rescued he saw two persons drowning. Confirmation of Torpedo Story. “These depositions are confirmed by the American men and women, who took passage aboard the Sussex and whose names follows: “John Hearley, Albany, N. Y.; Lilian Harde, New York: Mrs. Handyside, New York: Mrs. Gertrude Warren, St. Louis: Miss Gertrude Barnes, New York: Mr.-and Mrs. Beer, New York: Mrs. Dorothy Hilton and daughter Edna, New York; Samuel] S. Bemis, Bedford, Mass.: Tingle W. Cul- bertson, Lewisburg, Pa.: Daniel Sargent Wellesley, Mass.; Charles T. and George H. Crocker Jr., Fitchburg, Mass.; Wild- er G. Penfield, Hudson, Wis., and Miss Alice Ruiz, Lyon, Colo. These last five were enrolled in the American Red Cross ambulance, A certain number of the saved have been taken to Dover.” Survivors who reached Paris from Boulogne last night included Mrs. Ed- ward B. Hilton of New York and her daughter, Edna. Separated when the explosion occurred, mother and daugh- ter met a few hours later. Mrs. Hilton had remained aboard the ship while her Gaughter jumped into one of the life- boats and was later rescued by the French warship Marie Theresa. Miss Edna Hale, an American resident "agp with relatives and friends in N York, told the Associated Press that the captain of the Sussex expressed the opinion that his vessel was struck by a torpedo, as “he saw its silver streak." Miss Hale thinks. however, the disaster was caused by a mine. “We were about half way across.” FEEL YOUNG! It’s Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets for You! Mrs, Clarence Beware of the habit of constipation.

Asi was, nine of the 15 men in the saloon were killed. Among those who lost their liver was a Persian Prince, who had just been joking about his ‘safety waist- coat.’ when he was flung inte the sea. A French officer’s son, who was going to the front, had both legs cut off. ‘We all did what we could to help the injured. It was 10 hours before help ar- rived.”’ Count B—--—, a Belgian army officer, who was on the Sussex, states that the reason a periscope was not observed is that near the Sussex was a merchant- man which bore on its hull the name, Nieuport XIX. He states that this ves- sel approached the Sussex and screened the submarine as soon as the explosion occurred. According to this account, the Nieuport XIX, a Belgian steamer seized the Germans, sailed away without tendering aid. American Ambassador Sharp and the attaches of the embassy here were busy all day directing the search for the missing Americans, getting evidence from the consular agents, at Dieppe, Folkestone and Boulogne, and taking the depositions of survivors who have arrived in Paris. The facts gathered of- ficially thus far are chiefly from Ameér- icans, but it is understood that the in- quiry will go further. Naval Lieut. Smith and Capt. Boyd, attache of the embassies, are in Bou- logne, investigating the case and giv- ing relief to the American survivors who are still there. Enrique Granados, tlhe Spanish com- poser, and his wife were passengers «on the Sussex and are believed to have perished. Senor Granados composed the opera “Goyescas,”"’ which was produced re- cently at the Metropolitan Opera House, New York. He and his wife were lasi seen clinging to a small raft, accordin:z to survivors. Granados was trying to keep the raft straight with a small board which he used as a paddle. A boat was sent out to search for the cemposer and his wife, but no trace of them was found. Most of the lifeboats were so crowd- ed that they sank almost to the water's edge and consequently shipped water. Samuel Bemis of Massachusetts reached a lifeboat, but left it when it becanie overloaded with women and children. He took to a raft and floated about for some time until he met another raft n which was a Swiss. They spliced the rafts together with their neckties and saved a number of persons who were still in the water. LONDON REPORTS 102 ARE MISSING FROMTHE SUSSEX LONDON. March 27.—The latest fig- ures complied in London show as many as 102 persone missing from the Sussex. The list o* missing may be sligntly diminished later by the fact that some of the passengers who landed continued their journey Without reporting safe to the proper authorities. The casualties occurred in two ways: 1. In the explosion when the ship was struck, and >.

WASHINGTON, March 27.—Threaten- ing complicavuons in the Mexican sit- uation disappeared today when the ten- ate Republicans decided to accept the administration's assurances that suffi- cient troops were on the border for pro- tection of American interests, and de- termined to carry the agitation for more troops further at this time. Republican Senatcrs who atrended the conference would make little comment, but it was opparent tha: the majority disapproved hasty action or anything that might embarras the Government. While some thought the situation on the border threatening, they did nor wish to do anything which might pre- cipitate trouble or endanger the success of the expedition in search of Villa, Ad- ministration leaders were pleased with ihe result. Statement hy Senator Gailinger, chairman of tae conference, issued a statement, saying: “Republican Senators fully recognize that the duty of dealing with the pres- ent Mexican crisis rests with the Presi- dent and they have not at any time had any purpose of interfering with ine executive or any department of the Gov- ernment in that matter, but they have been and are now very solicitous that the military expedition in Mexico shall protected anad if neces- sary reinforced, and that the borier line shall be provided with forces suf- ficient to prevent raids similar to the one that occurred at Columbus. “While realizing that their informa- tion may not be fully complete, they be- lieve that upon the information which they do have, all available regulars should be sent to the border, to be re inforced by detachments from the na- tional guard if circumstances demand. Not only should Villa and his mur- derers be captured and punished, but the lives and property of American cit- izens on both sides should be fully pro- tected, a thing which has not hereto- fore been done by our Government.” Senator Worah of Idaho, before enter- ing the Republican conference, replied to a telegram from Mayor Lea of El Paso asking for more troops by saving he would do all he could to have pro- tection afforaed, but did not know what could be done. “The administration says it has all the troops that are. needed,” Borah said ‘Tf that is a fact, I do not see what there is to be done, except to stand by the administ”ation.”’ Major-General Funston’s dispatches revealed no new developments in the pursuit of Villa and reports from naval vessela on both coasts of Mexico dis- closed nothirg disquieting. Proposals by Carranza. Eliseo Arredondo, Gen. Carranza’s Ambassador, at the direction of hts chief, presented to Secretary Lansing some proposa:s to broaden the protocol covering the joint pursuit of Villa ban- dits. The only effect of the new pro- posals, Mexican officials here believe, will be to delay the formal ratificat‘on The protocol suggested by Gen. ar- ranza was designed to cover use of Mex- ican railways by American troops in pursuit of Villa. Details of the pro- posals will not be made public until Secretary Lanring has studied them. It is belfleved Gen. Carranza wiil make no answer at present to the specific re- quest for permission to ship supplies over the Mexicar Northwestern to American troops now more than 2 miles south of the line. Apparently it ie the purpose of Gen. Carranza to crant the request under the terms of the protocol, when it shall have been com- pleted and sinned, rather ‘nan to extend the desired permission now and provide for it In the genera! agreement. The gunboat Marietta has been dered from Vera Cruz to Tampico to aid in protecting American interests.

By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. JEFFERSON C ITY, March 27.—Alder- man Barney L. Schwarz, spokesman for a St. Louis delegation which appeared before the State Board of Equalization to argue that St. Louis prop- erty assessed at a higher rate than out-of-town property, brought forth ve- hement comments from the board when he referred to the recent diversion of $300,000 from the State's school funda. “It was at an unofficial meeting of the State Board of Equalization with all present, that the plan to replenish depleted revenue fund from money Was hatched,” Schwarz said, addressing the board, “and the lamentable condition of the State's finances was due to the un- equal basis of taxation now used in Mis- souri, by which property in St. Louis is assessed at 7 per cent and county »rop- erty is assessed at from 10 to 31-3 per cent.”’ “I think if that fact had been gener- ally known,” Schwarz added, “public sentiment might have been different when the school funds were diverted.” “What's that?’ demanded the Gov- ernor. “When was any school fund diverted?’ demanded Secretary of State Roach. “‘No school funds have been diverted,” declared Auditor Gordon. Not Making Headway. Schwarz saw that he was not making headway with the board and took an- other tack. He declared that if the assessments had been equalized, the Governor would not have been compelled to veto %,- 700,000 of appropriations made by the Legislature. Schwarz here today is members the the school cited statements from Dr. declared that $700,000 of the amount held up by the Governor were actually need- ed by the eleemosynary and educational institution.

Swann admitted he had evidence that Dr. Waite had a laboratory in which he made a study of deadly ‘cerms and that the young dentist’s activities in this direc. tion were being investigated. Assistant Luistrict Attorney Mancuso, Dr. Harry schurz, the Peck family phy- Sician, and Mr. and Mrs. Percy Peck, son and daughter-in-law of John E. Peck, arrived today from Grand Rapids and were expected to go before the grand jury. Mancuso brought with him a large number of exhibits and S00 pages of stenograpnic notes, detailing among cther things tne cremation of Mrs. Peck. whose death in Dr. Waite'’s Riverside drive home preceded that of ler hus- band at the same place by six weeks. Waite still is in Bellevue Hospital. His condition seems to much improved and physicians said his mind was evi- dently clearing from the effects of ths drugs he took. “Why am T here? Why they take me out and have it with ”’’ the physicians quoted him as saying. Dr. Waite has given te his brotier authority to restore to Miss Cat*1erine A. Peck, sister of John E. Peck, the funds remaining from the $40,000 she en- trusted to Dr. Waite for investment. It is reported that Miss Peck has prom- ised to supply funds for the dentist's de- fense under certain conditions. Frank A. Waite, a brother, snid to- day the prisoner might make a confes- sion that would add to criminal history a startling chapter and tell’the story of a plot which had as its objective per- sons besides John E. Peck. Kor two days the District Attornev’s office has been devoting most of its time to running down every deiail of the relationship between Dr. Waite and Mrs. Margaret Horton, for whom he fur- nished a ‘studio’ in the Hotel Plaza. Mrs. Horton has described to the Dis- trict Attorney visits to a medical Jab- oratory in this city, where she said Waite told her he was conducting bac- teriological experiments. For six hours Saturday Mrs. Horton was questioned and cross-qiuestioned. Yesterday her friend, Mrs. Van Palmen- berg, was interrogsted for four hours Much of the ground gone over in this examination had been covered by Mrs Hiorton, and the statements of the twv women differed on several points re- garded as important. Both will be fur- ther examined, and statements made by them, und also by Mrs. Horton's hus- band will checked today by de- tectives. Mrs. Horton still Dr. made her no gifts and that she money from him, except that for her instruction in the schoo} pression they attended “We studic:'!

The expedition into Mexico is purely to get Villa, and the Government at Wash- ington has no fear that Gen. Carranza, head of the de facto Government, will not co-operate with our troops in cap- turing the bandit. ‘The people who want us to take Mex- ico are’ people, of course, who want to make money for_themselves. One of my friends suggested to me that we ought to take Mexico immediately. He gave as the reason that he knew a tract of $0,000 acres of land in Mexico, which he could buy for 10 cents an acre. With the American flag flying over Mexico, and with that property under the pro- tection of American courts, he said the land would be worth $30 an acre. It was easy to figure out why he wanted to take Mexico. “T have no idea how long it will take to capture Villa, but United States troops will stay in that country until it is accomplished.”’ 15 The styles, values and the completeness of the assortment is remarkable, in view of the scareity of silks, and the uncer. tain status of the dye situation. ? furniture.

Proposed first by the Executive Coun- cil of the American Federation, ani approved at the national convention in San Francisco, last year, Labor’s World Peace Congress should be an assembly of workers to demand that the peace delegates of the warring nations deter- mine nothing touching the lives of the workers without taking counsel with them. Such an assembly of repre- sentatives of wage earners close by the deliberatidns of the peace delegates is expected to have a large effect on the spirit and determination of the lat- ter.

HURD, HikE keynote of “A Pair of Silk 7 Stockings’’ gets itself uttered when the Captain, intruder by chance in a divorcee’s bedroom, he may remain to smoke a cigarette. “Ought you to?’ asks the archly, “Of course not, “Well, then, you may,” asks if divorcee, ’ says the Captain. is the reply. The whole second act of this play by Cyril Harcourt, seen at the Shubert last night, is an exhibition of fancy skating on the thin ice of permissibility, with cracks of Salacity opening now and then at one side and letting in an ooze of suggestiveness which never quite over- flows the entire surface. Polished dialogue, and the deft ing of Sam Sothern and his associates, offense of the plot—or ag- gravate it, if one take a act- mitigate the chooses to The play comes here of the New York more rigid view. with the hallmark Little Theater. These playhouses of in- timate dimensions are usually thought of as part of the movement to uplift the drama. In view of this play, and of a local amateur event of a few nights ago, some unkind person may presently be asking who is to uplift the little theaters. Some Unnecessary As the blithering and squiffy things are ‘‘a bit thick’’ in the action of the play, and the speeches and situations indispensable to the plot are quite suggestive enough, ut there are two things which do not scem necessary to the plot, but which are thrown in for good measure, that no fail to get his ffll of smart The first is the divorcee’s the behavior of the chauffeur and her maid, whom she says she has left back in the road, in her stalled car. The story of the stalled car is all swank, it develops near the close. The other thing which seems unneces- sary, and which detracts from the pleas- antness of the play’s ending, is the length of the stay which the captain makes in the bedroom into which he blundered after the divorcee had retired. "he mistaken entrance, the capture o? the supposed burglar—who was really the divorced husband, hiding in a closet to get a chance to explain matters—and the appearance of the captain’s fiancee after the burglar, chucked in the bath- room, has escaped—these are the essen- tial things in the situation. That the captain should prolong his visit in the room, and should try to revive his old courtship, is not necessary, and it is car- ried so far that he is hardly entitled to the easy letting-down which he gets, in the final scene, from his flancee. There are other lines in the secend act which are not: required by dramatic or artistic considerations, and which tend to lessen the sympathy with which the divorcee is regarded when the hostess attempts to wither her with the appella- tion of ‘‘Rahab.”’ Sothern’s Work Artistic. Sam Sothern appears in the title role. That last sentence looks like a blunder in writing, but it isn’t. Sam is in the silk stockings. First they are tied abou: his ankles by way of binding him, and at the end he turns up jolly well wear- ing them on his own tidy feet. Sam's handling of the whisky and soda, in proportions most flattering to the distiller, and his defenge of his own pre-divorce conduct, were two of the best laughs of the per- formance. “I was as innocent as the wayside flowerlet,”’ he insists. Ad- mitting that he bestowed a pair of sables on a woman who bought her hair at the chemist’s, he argues that such conduct “isn’t living in gin.” In this scene, and throughout the play, Sothern takes the part of Sam Thornhil, the divorced husband, in that most effective and most diffi- cult comedy fashion which consists of perfect seriousness. Eva Leonard-Boyne (that hyphen is in the program) appears as the wife, quite too young and pretty for such a blighter as her ex-husband. Alison Skipworth is the portly host- ess, who first condones divorce by teling of the weariness of having a husband “on your hands, on your nerves and on your pillow,” but who later washes her hands of the scan- dal beneath her roof, and flees to her vicar. Wallace Erskine appears as the host, who admits that “every man, at some time of his life, gets into a cupboard.” P. Clayton Greene played the Captain's role with ro- mantic finish, and Edward Douglas was a diverting young Briton in the amateur theatricals of the first act, which are so badly rehearsed as to cause the hostess to declare that “there’s a degree of incompetence which even the British public re- fuses to stand for.” Lines.

SECOND SERIES GAME FOR ROBISON FIELD HERE will be a lull on the local baseball battle front for five days, the Cardinals resuming their of- fensive against’ the Browns next Saturday at Robison Field in the second game of the series. The third game is booked for next Sunday at Sportsinan’s Park, while 10 date has yet been assigned for the postponed chash of last Saturday. Neither team practiced this morning because of inclement weather. However, the Browns were on hand early and list- ened to a lecture by Fielder Jones. SERIES STANDING. Team. W. Ta Pet. Cardinals .. ... 0) 1.000 Browns Fe. .000 First Cardinals 4-9-1; Browns 1-4-2. Batteries: Steele and Snyder; Davenport, Weil- man, Koob and Hartley. By W. J. O’Connor. A Cardinal victory yesterday, 4—1, in the belated opening of the spring series, proved nothing more than that 12,00 famished fans will go to a ball game in any kind of weather. It was a day for reefers and mittens; but, despite the inclemency, both clubs earned enough: at the gate to almost clear their training expenses. Incidentally the ~ictory of the National Leaguers will serve to in- crease the attractiveness of the re- maining games. The Browns were $-to-5 favorites in the betting in vesterday’s game and 7-to-10 on the series. Dope The “pony” went wrong. everywhere. infield of Miller Hug- wins’ team completely outplayed the more seasoned veterans of the Great inch plays by Bet- Beck an Hornsbv carried Bob Steele, the youthful southpaw, to Victory. Egregious errors by Pratt, Austin and Paulette dragged Dave Daven- »ort and his confreres to defeat. The Browns couldn't hit, petting only three clean smacks, a it. each. .of these was for extra bases. One cof Pratt's hits was tainted, Fielder Jones staked his chances on Dave Davenports speed: but it wasn't there. Evervthing favored the altitudinous Texan, if he was right; but unfortunately for the Browns, he was wrong. He lacked control and his fast ball. Weilman, who suc- ceeded him, was in perfect stroke and jelded nothing that remotely resembled a run. Defense of Browns Was Weak. wasn't altogether Davenport's fault. A more solidified defense would have saved him :1 the second inning when the enemy hammered in three runs, enough to win. Cruise opened this inning with a walk. Clarence Walker's delinquency nfield then gave Bruno Betzel a dou- ble on what shoul@q have been an out, or at worst a single. Walker was plaving too deep and too close to the line for Betzel. Bruno is mostly a left-field hitter. Walker failed to “swing around,’’ when he came up, and when Bruno reached for one on the outside and sliced it to right, Walker was ‘20 miles away.’ He came in as fast as he could in the mud, overran the ball and left it to Sisler. the latter was there in the pinch with a perfect throw to Pratt as Cruise rounded third. It was foolish baseball to send Cruise in. His finish was seen by everybody in the park. But then came the unexpected: Pratt pegged high to Hartley and the ball ,rolled to the stand. Cruise, who should have been out standing up, scoring with ease. No- body backed up on the play and Betzel also tallied. Hornsby surprised with a single over second and Snyder then coaxed a pass. Jones figured the percentage here. There were runners on first and second, nobody out and it was certain that Steele, the Cardinal pitcher, would bunt. Davenport can't fleld bunts, so Jones exercised the recall. Weilman went in and pitched carefully. But Steele succeeded in bunting, after he had two strikes, proving that the Cardinals couldn’t do anything wrong. -Austin plerced the heart of every Brown fan by booting Bescher’s anemic grounder, Betzel scoring. Beck fanned and Smith was easy on a lofter to Walker. Browns Failed to Hit. That was the game. The Browns couldn't get their driving attack in mo- tion, because Pratt and Walker were impotent in the pinch. On the other hand, the Cardinals fielded a perfect kame. Betzel took a hit away from Walker in the fourth on a stop back of second. He snatched another hit from Clemons in the eighth on a one-handed stab of a line drive. Beck cut down what looked like a hit for Walker in the first while Hornsby was in front of Weilman's well-designed line drive in the fifth. It matters not that the Cardinals ecored another run off Ernie Koob in the ninth. A walk to Betzel, the game's hero, a scratch bunt by Hornsby, a force play and Steele’s pop single to right produced the marker. Sisler’s savage double and two infleld outs saved the nb hada from the ignominy of a shut- out.

The lone defeat for the Tarks was ad- ministered at the hands of the Mary- Ville Normals, who were among the real contenders for whe title the early part of the season. Second place went to the Normals, who won s®ven games and, lost two. It was the first season for the Springfield Teachers in the charmed circle and the showing of Coach Briggs and his charges was most commendable. The winning of the championship by Tarkio realized cherished ambition that Coach J. C. Elder of the Northwest Missouri team en nursing for two vears.

The Tarkio team is a popular championship aggregation. ‘The five is made up of a grea: bunch of athletes, whose demeanor on the Missouri courts this winter has stamped them as Clean-cut, hard-working sportsmen and a credit to the circuit.

In a longer fight I would take my time and make HIM do a little of the fighting. I think he was pret- ty well paid for anything that he did. | He fought just two minutes in the whole fight. That was in that sev- enth round. Then he wilted, and to prove that he has nothing, I fought him off his feet and sent him to his corner wincing. Was Jess in Trouble? “When I had him against the ropes in that round his jaws were wide open and the saliva was running out of his mouth. That was purely dis- tress. It does seem to me that a champion should have done a little more fighting. Goodness knows wh.t would have happeneg had I stood off and waited as he did. “T know now that I made many mistakes in the fight. It’s pretty hard to get to a man who woneé come to you a bit. Jess is a good blocker, and there isn’t a man in the world right now that he couldn’t stand off for 10 rounds, because of his unusual reach. He’ll never be in good fettle again. Even his most ardent ad- mirers were amazed at his bad show of condition, His boxing saved him. I know that now. “Here's a funny thing. They told me that I'd never reach his chin. AS &a matter of fact, I was shooting h.gh cbove that mark. I had a ridge of humps on each of his temples. I landed often and 1 landed hard, and now 1 know why I landed high. Don’t you se. . was shooting my punches over his guard. In order to clear the hurdle I had to shoot ‘em high. Naturally he fell in a bit or fell away and_ the punches missed the mark. “IT don’t think there was any enthusi- asm over his fighting. My idea is that the first exponent of the art of give and ‘ake should be able to sting a man from the first gong to the last. “That's my notion of a crafty craftsman. He picked out two min- utes of one‘roung to do $47,500 worth if fighting. My idea, as I said before, is to hurt. hurt, hurt from the start. My slogan is the Britisn navy’s slogan ‘Ready: aye, ready?’ “The cut over my eye bothered and made it look bad for me, when as a matter of fact, it was nothing at all A cut always sways opinion.

C. noCAL MEN PASSED UP With Largest City Association in U. S., Mound City Candi- dates Are Beaten. , The St. Louis Tenpin Association is angry at the American Bowling Con- gress. This comes about because the local body, with 417 teams, had its can- didate beaten at Toledo. Henry ©. Menne, president of the locai body, Was a candidate for a vice presidency, with C. Howard Stewart, a candidate for the Executive Committee. The former withdrew, but the latter was ignored. C.°M. Barker, who for six years had been a member of the Executive Com- mittee, stated at the local meeting when delegates were selected that he would not again take the position. At the gathering in Toledo he was prevailed npon to stick and was elec .ed third vice president. D. J. Sweeney, secretary of the local association, compares the A. B. C. ma- chine to the Taft steam roller. Only he says it is much stronger. One of the things the ‘“‘machine” did at Toledo was to elect Frank Pasdeloup treasurer and Abe Langtry secretary, for years, at an increased salary. Judge Howard of Chicago, head of the ‘‘machine,’’ put this over. While the local association has held no meeting to decide what it would do, it is thought they will withdraw from the American Bowling Congress. New Bowling Body Needed. According to Sweeney, the thing that is needed is a Central States organiza- tion to co-operate with the Middle West and the International. For a time, the Midwest and A. B. C. worked in har- mony, but that time is passed. If the new association is formed, Sweeney says it will have the support of St. Louis. Another thing Sweeney does not like is the way the schedule is framed. He points out that Sykes Thoma of Chicago, who is leader in the all-events at To- ledo, rolled his nine games on the same rair of alleys. Others were not so fortu- nate and could not get accustomed to the run of the drives. Sweeney also gives credit for the rec- ord entry at Toledo to the Toledo offi- yg er: not to the higher-ups in the A. bs 3 * ° Deen Boosts Jarrett’s Standing.

OR the second time in his career John L. Sullivan is alone in his class. As a London prize ring rules Today Sullivan stands out as the only qualified expert who insists that Moran defeated Willard, Saturday night at New York. The man who was never afraid to take on all comers at short notice emitted a leonine roar to the effect that “Moran carried all the fighting and saved the event from proving a fiasco.” “A fine champion, this big Hunkie,”’ | roared the old fellow after the contest. “He laid back and let a man nearly 60 pounds lighter do all the battling, while he himself played it safe from opening to closing bell. “Willingness to fight is 50 per cent in judging contests; and Wil- lard never acted willing.” Why, John! How can you be so for- getful. Don’t you know it’s against the law to FIGHT? Nowadays they box, John. Wake up and modernize yourself, old scout. Get into the pink-tea band- wagon. a 7 Another Bill of Exceptions. OHN L. was not the only complain- ant in the case of the Ringsiders vs. Jess Willard, Saturday. The women present, or at least those of them for whom news columns were kept open to a late hour, were unanimous in express- ing DISAPPOINTMENT! “It was an awful tame affair,’’ was their verdict, while the men around them raved and ranted about Jess being the ‘“‘greatest fighter of all times.”’ Not having been at ringside, Old Man Dope held his fire last night. In confi- dence, however, he told the writer that, in his opinion, Jess Willard did the TALLEST fighting in the history of e. the gam a ° Corbett Loses Another Title.

Up to Saturday, Corbett -.eld the world’s championship as a | lemon picker. Jim is no longer in the “maiden class.” He picked Willard to win! + > . The World’s Title Stain. ITH only John L. and the wom. en barring the way to the gen- eral acceptance of Jess Willard as “the greatest fighter ever,” a motion to make it unanimous is in order— just a complimentary motion. In the past there has been no title holder since John L.’s day whose honors were not sullied. Here is a list of the stigmas attaching to the winning of the various honors: JAMES J.. CORBETT—Beat John L. Sullivan, a broken-down old man, 40 pounds overweight. BOB FITZSIMMONS—Won a one-punch victory over Jim Cor- bett, who, for 13 rounds, had out- pointed him and cut him to bits, JAMES J. JEFFRIES—Defeat- ed Bob Fitz, a 37-year-old op- ponent, whom he outweighed BO pounds. MARVIN HART—Had his title champion the mighty walloper from Boston was supposed to be so far above his contemporaries as to be ob- servable only with the aid of a telescope. Hart had beaten a mediocre light- heavyweight. TOMMY BU RNS—The first “cheese champion,” who whipped Marvin Hart, a man that had been trying for years to put OUT John Barleycorn, but who only Succeeded in putting him DOWN. JACK JOHNSON — Defeated Tommy Burns, a man 30 pounds lighter than himself and over whom he enjoyed every physical advantage. JESS WILLARD — Defeated Jack Johnson, a man 87 years of age, who was 30 pounds out of condition and whom he out- weighed. * oa «a Will it ever come to pass that the fans will witness a championship contest between men evenly matched in size, ability and strength, and both in the prime of youth”? It seems unlikely. It is the way of champions to go under only when the opposi- tion fights with Father Time or some other handicap in his favor. . ¥ a Is Big Jess Through EPORTS that Jess Willard has fought his last fight are, to say the least, premature. The lure of the extra $50,000 to be harvested by a second and longer battle will GET Jess, ust as smaller sums have betrayed . a ess wou e to quit, it appears from his actions. His little MP sec in ae fighting world was purely finan- cial. In this respect his hand has been played to the limit in a masterly manner.

The tugnult and the shouting died out of the heavyweight championship tight situation Saturday night with the end of the Moran-Willard bout. But interest is not dead, by any means. Two notable events happened last week, one of which will have a seri- ous bearing on the world’s champion- ship matchmaking of the future. Up to last week it was thought that Moran and Willard represent -1 all that was left of title timber in the Big Boys’ class. Gunboat Smith had exploded; Carl Morris never ar- rived (quite), in spite of Billy Mc- Carney’s jockeyship; Jim Coffey had been eliminated by the heavy artil- lery of Moran; Jack Dillon and Le- vinsky were voted too small; and Al Reich’s glass jaw barred him out of all hope. There remained Fred Fulton, the big Minnesota joke, whose match with Willard, scheduled to take place in New Orleans, was called off be- cause the promoters feared an in- dignant public might wreck § their plant. This act automatically put the 6 feet 4-inch sycamore out of the run- ning. But last Monday’s events put him back in. It was then that Fulton earned his spurs by stopping Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman. He stopped him cleanly in two rounds, which is a bigger achievement, ac- cording to the records, than any other fighter but Sam Langford ever put over on the fireman. Fireman Tough Timber. Flvnn, while not the best heavy- weight in the world, is 100 per cent net FIGHTER. The man who beats him generally has anxious moments during the contest. Hie has trimmed some good ones, too. That a dub cannot take liberties with him was shown when he faced Carl Morris, conceding 60 pounds in weight and untold height and reach, and gave the Oklahoma scrapper the worst beating of his career. This Fulton, then, is no Carl Mor- ris in rawness. Here's what Flynn said of him while in St. Louis on last Thursday: “Fulton knocked me out good ond proper. He did it with a blow on the back of the head, just behind my ear. He hit me so hard I did not know anything was happening for the next five mir.utes. ‘This Fulton surprised me. His worst fault is that he can’t hit straight, but he hooks and swings all right and is fairly fast. He will surely make trouble for any of the big ones and he is just the right boy to tackle a man of Wil- lard’s build. “T think this will be the next cham- pionship fight and I'll bet it will be no cheese one, unless Fulton fails to live up to the fight he gave me.”’ Maupome, in Third Place, Is Only Half Game Behind Leaders in Angle Circuit Charles Bilis, world’s champton §three- cushion player, has been ousted from the lead in the Interstate League.

Incidentally he used one man who isn’t under contract to the club, and probably never will be. | In the eighth inning, after Otis Crandall was called out on strikes in lieu of John Lavan, Bill McKech- nie went to short for the Browns. McKechnie is the property of Harry Sinclair, late of ewark. Bill man- aged Sinclair's club last season and drew down a mere matter of $8000. He has a contract which calls for a similar amount for the current sea- son and also for 1917. This contract is his greatest defect. Nobody wants to pay him that price and conse- quently he’s not working, although his pay will start April 12. McKechnie worked out with the Browns In Palestine, but his expenses were paid by Sinclair. He was ticketed to depart for other fields, having finished his job of getting in shape with the Browns, but may be retained now that Jones has seen fit to use him. However, if he tarries, Sinclair will have to pay a portion of that $8000 McKechnie’s greatest asset is his aggres- siveness. He's the gamest Scotchman in baseball. It was a bad day for Zinn Beck.

Charles Chouteau Johnson, 24 years old, a member of the old Chouteau family of St. Louis and now in the flying corps charged with the defense of Paris, has written «a letter to his uncle, Ed- ward V. Papin of 4642 Berlin avenue aescribing the training requirements he underwent tc qualify for the French aviation corps. Johnson's duties at Paris require him to be in the air two hours cach day. While in the air he drives a Voisin aero- plane around ine city on constant watch for enemy aircraft, and is armed with bombs. “IT finished my training at Pau on a Bleriot monoplane on Jan. 2,’’ Johnsor. wrote. “Perhaps you may be i1terested in the sort of tests that we pilots hav. to go through befure getting our mili- tary brevete (license). First vou go through the erdinary stages of learn- ing. When you are considered profi- cient, you commence your tests as fol- iOws: “1.

The pilot is handed & map and compass; he is shown the towns on the map, is given a compass. and the rest ho has to do himself. “4. And last, he must go up twice to 2000 meters (6560 feet). “Aviation would be a great sport if you could go up when you felt just like it and only in good weather, but, under adverse weather conditions, it is at times a little trying. However, the re- ally nerve-racking and hard work of. learning and of getting acoustomed to the air and heighth is over, thank good- ness. “After having been among these vdoys and heard their tales of the baitle and retreat from the Marne, what I have seen and done makes me feel like a piker. Honestly that must have been a living hell.’’ Johnson entered the aviation corps !ast fall, after having driven an American ambulance since the beginning of the war.

MUSKOGEE, Ok., March 27.—Mrs. Idz Lee Hadley, who killed her old friend, Sheriff Jake Giles of Beaumont, Tex., on a@ passenger train last Friday when he was taking her husband back to Beaumont to answer to charges of theft and assault to murder, gaily worked at a plece of crocheting in a dingy cell in the McIntosh County Jail today and discussed her crime with no apparent fear of the electric chair. She freely admits that she killed Sheriff Giles and declares that when she married Hadley last January she knew that trouble would come. When they were fleeing from Texas they realized that sooner or later they would be arrested, she said, and they planned to fight, if necessary, to escape. That is how the bride came to carry ae revolver in her hand bag. She talA how she shot Giles with it when the Katy Limited train, on which they were riding into Checotah last Thursday morning. “T took a drinking cup out of my bag and went to the water cooler,”’ she said. ‘There I took my revolver from the hand bag and stuck it in my belt. Then I walked back down the aisle toward the Sheriff. This was a prearranged sig- nal. When Paul saw me coraing he rose from his seat and stepped away from the Sheriff. I nointed the revolver at Jake and told him to hold up his hands. That was the way we had planned to make the escape—hold up the Sheriff, take his revolver away from him, stop the train, drop off, hold up an automo- bile and flee across the country.

LOUISANS To the run down man or woman who suffers all of the tortues, both mental and physical, that this con- ‘dition brings, the story of J. E. Sey- mour of 3923 Delmar avenue, St. Louls, will be of deep interest. Al- ready Tanlac, the great reconstruc- tive tonic, has won the indorsement of hundreds of St. Louisans, but Mr. Seymour's statement is so typical of the relief Tanlac brings that it holds especial interest. In relating the great change in his vondition yesterday, Mr. Seymour ex- plained: “IT was in a general run-down con- dition. My whole system seemed af- fected. I had almost continual head- aches and to add to my misery there were pains'-in my back and limbs.’ This physical suffering was insig- nificant, however, compared to the ™ nervous strain Mr. Seymour had un- - a te 7 = - “I could not sleep because dergone. ' of nervousness,” this St. Louis man | said, “and, besides, my appetite as he did, Mr. Seymour's mmgth failed and he soon became, as he described ft, “generally run down.” And then Mr. Seymour described Tanlac’s aid. ' “I think Tanlac {ts a wonderful system tonic,” he declared. “My ap- petite is once more good. My head- aches are about all gone. I assimi- late the food I eat, which means more strength and better rest. I am }going to continue the Tanlac treat- ment and I think I will soon be al! right. “I would with pleasure recommend Tanlac to any one who has the same complaints as I had,” Mr. Seymour concluded. In substance, his mes- sage to run-down men and women is “Take Tanlac.” Tanlac now is being specially in- troduced in 8t. Louis Prete Wolft- Wilson drug store, 6th and Washing= ton and the Johnson-Enderle-Pauley drug store, 7th and St. Charles streets. There experts from the Tan- lac laboratories explain Tanlac. Taa- lac, too, is being specially presented in the South Side by the Four Win- kelmann drug stores.—ADV, Sheriff Wouldn’t Be But Jake could not be bluffed, He reached for his revolver. Then it was. up to me to shoot or get shot. I fired and I kflled him. I had not thought I would have to do that. Then Pav! grabbed the Sheriff's revolver. He made the auditor stop the train. I held back the people in the car. We were just getting into Checotah, though we dia not know it at the time. We fled across the country. Oh, it was awful. Through barbed-wire fences, through thickets and across branches filled with water, and me with a pair of thin kid boots on. We finally reached a farmhouse. It was still dark. We offered them money to let us stay in the barn. “Barly next morning the farmer go: up and started for Checotah. The min- ute he was out of sight we hired his boy to drive up to Canadian bottoms, The boy lef: us at a farmhouse and started back. ‘The posse met him and he told about us. “We had expected to meet an automo- bile on the country roads and our plar was to make the driver take us a long distance through the rough country and drop us at some railroad point, where we would get another train. We did not find the auto and the officers found us, and so we are here. “But I am all right. this. I am not worried.”’ A woman reporter who drove to Tex- ana, 15 miles from a railroad, and near where the Hadleys were captured, saw them arrive there. “I saw the officers coming with the prisoners handcuffed together,’’ she said. “When they stopped Hadley picked his wife up and carried her in his arms through a lot of mud and put her on the porch of a house. Boots Torn From Feet. ‘‘Her $10 boots were literally torn from her feet. Her skirt was in shreds. This woman who was willing to fight and to kill for her mate was a pitiable object A pretty girl she is, too, 22 years old, with brown eyes, black hair and a few freckles. I followed them on té Checo- tah and talked to them at the Gentry Hotel. Then the officers took the Had- leys to Eufaula and I went along. There they were put in separate calls. There are two negro men ifn the cell next to Mrs. Hadley. She hung up a blanket between the cells in the afternoon. “She laughed merrily to me and said she was cleaning house. She sent out into the little town to buy two middy blouses and two light skirts. Hadley !s in a cell across the corridor. He cannot see his wife, but he can talk to her. Fre- (quently he called out to her: ‘Ida, you are talking too much. You had better stop it.’ ’’ a preliminary hearing has yet been I'll get out of a We will decide your laund ry question for you.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. History repeats itself in the case of Mexico and the United States. In 1846 an American ex- pedition under Zachary Taylor seized Mexican territory without color or right and precipitated war between the two countries which resulted in the acquisition by us of California and New Mex- ico, a8 well as the admission of other states into the Union. Money compensation for Mexico after- wards followed, but money does not always soothe wounded national pride or make amends for in- justice. While Villa’s raids are acts of brigand- age merely, he and other unscrupulous leaders have fertile soil to work upon in arousing Mexican hatred of the “Gringoes.”’ The best way to avoid international ill-feeling is to act justly towards neighbors, even if the latter are not to be classed with the best. It is true that in later years the United States upheld the sovereignty of Mexico even against such an old friend as France, when she virtually settled the Napoleonic dream of a continenta] em- pire by ordering Maximilian out of the land cf the Aztecs. Events showed, however, that Mexicéd was capable of dealing with the invaders herse.., while the United States was mainly concerned in upholding the Monroe Doctrine. We are learning nowadays that the seeds of old hatreds, old conflicts and old prejudices, like the seeds found in the ancient tombs of Egypt, may germinate if given suitable soil; that they rarely if ever die. We are learning that the blood-stains persist and that the damned spots can be exor- cised only by the practice of human fellowship and practical Christianity. The evil that men do lives after them, but it need not live perpetually. » Oftentimes our historic heroes will not bear the re !

Why should we perpetuate thetr accomplishments? Taylor’s victory over Santa Ana at Buena Vista was a remarkable military achievement, but it is bearing bitter fruit after nearly 70 years. MEXICAN SYMPATHIZER. Rag Pickers’ Week. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We have seen so many days set apart recently for the specific purpose of having people spend money. Is it not time to set aside days for con- rervation of our resources? The printers are ‘having financial ruin staring them in the face. red papers as we used to be able to secure are ‘out of the question. I had a red linen paper cover we use as a tack for specifications and at our printer’s today two paper salesmen begged to keep the sample sheet as a souvenir.

VOGEL | Walking Vacation, Tours Ts the Editor of the Post-Dispetch. Vacation time is close at hand. A great many are given from a week to 10 days vacation during the summer months. The bulk of these persons are not financially fixed so that they can spend very much for the enjoying of their few dnys off: the cheaper and most heakthy way in my estimat‘on to spend one’s vacation is walking—a walking trip through a scenic country, We have a great deal of that kind of country tn a radius of a hundred miles Louis, espectally south and southwest of ‘hea city. I have taken a great many walks through the suburbs of St. Louis and th's summer 1 would like to make a continuous walk of about seven days within a hundred miles of St. Louis and I take this means through your paper of ob- taining the information from some of your readers who are walkers and perhaps can figure out a nice seven-day trip, starting at St. Louls and end- ing af St. Louis, the ronds to traverse, stopping placer © ‘uring the day and shelter at night, oe betic. v the health end, if one could carry sheiter tent, cook ovtfit and provisions, a complete - obhet of the articies to carry, based on econom and eqmpacthiers, all the proper clothing to wear and any Other information along the-a lines that wil) tend to muke the trip a pleasant one. “WALKER.” id =e Rte Sake DE ae ke > ge y Ps | THE LIARS OF THE RIO GRANDE. President Wilson discovers “sinister and un- scrupulous influences. that invent and circulate irritating reports with the design of creating mis- understanding between the Government of the United States and the provisional Government of Mexico. To this class of reports probably belong those asserting a disguised hostility on the part of the Carranza forces, describing revolts by Carranza leaders, predicting that, being in Mexico, our army will not come back until the country ‘'s cleaned up, and taking a generally pessimistic view of the Pershing expedition. ° We are making war on a Mexican, not on Mex- icc. An invasion of a neighbor’s territory in so anomalous an undertaking would be ticklish busi- ness at any time. But it places our friendly re- lations with the sister republic in double jeopardy because of the factional disorganization in that country. The liars ot the Rio Grande are not amiable, well-intentioned liars who aim only at interesting the reading public. As established to the satisfac- tion of the President, their purpose is to bring about “intervention in the interest of certain American owners of Mexican properties.” They misrepresent our intentions and disparage the Mexicans in ways sure to .:rouse resentment and sus,_cion. No reputable news association, no reputable newspaper will disregard the President’s appeal to patriotism, and the “traffic in falsehood,” as Mr. Wilson calls it, should be suppressed. Both the reading public and those who deal in publicity are put on their guard by the President's warning. Tainted news, an abomination at any time, becomes outlawed, criminal news when man- ufactured in the design of causing crises in our international relations.

At the beginning of the present war Russia had a standing army ‘of 1,200,000; Germany, 634,- 000; France, 634,000; Austria-Hungary, 327,000; England, 255,000, and Japan, 230,000. The United States had 81,000. All the other nations in the list have multiplied their trained and equipped soldiers by 10. We still have 81,000; yet we talk about protecting our rights, our trade, our wealth and our country against assault by any nation. Among the armed and greedy nations we are a baby with our hands full of candy. —_—_——— The American people annually spend $3,000,- 000,000 for immoral indulgences, $800,000,000 for jewelry, $500,000,000 for automobiles and $462,- 060,000 for candy and soft drinks, yet begrudge only $245,000,000 for inadequate insurance against war and its disasters. Isn’t it time to spend less on pleasure and more on national security? eo Shall the American people be ¢nefficient or effi- cient, careless or careful, wise or foolish? Shall we as a nation always be guided by hindsight, never by foresight? ,_=_—- rr THE QUO VADIS FRAT. A college student from Illinois who fell from the bumpers of an incoming freight car and landed in our city hospital with a new bump of knowledge on his cranium brings tidings of a unique fraternity to which he belongs. The Quo Vadis fraternity, we learn, is a duly organ- {zed college secret society, to join which the as- pirant must ‘beat his way” 1000 miles. Leaving ethics out of it, we are not prepared to say that this course in the school of hard knocks is not a useful supplement to the regular curriculum of culture. If it should demonstrate that the hardest way to get there is to beat one’s way, the end would almost justify the means. The danger is that highbrow hoboism will fall into the error of believing it the easiest way without giving other work a fair trial. Work- ing one’s way is the easiest way through an otherwise difficult life; but the easiest way to Perdition, is a rocky road at best, with occa- sional stopovers at the rockpile. Beating one’s way is often/ synonymous with beating rocks, and it is pathetic to witness the hookworm pain- fully forced to the hardest labor—the tragedy of the sore-footed traveler preparing his own cruel road. If we may be pardoned for preaching too sol- emnly to venturesome boyishness we will con- tent ourselves with advising that the best time to acquire honesty is early in youth. An elderly college professor is authority for the statement that if honesty is not acquired in early youth it can never be acquired afterwards. = = — a a It is only a robber hunt.

The literary test of the Burnett immigration bill is none the less objectionable than: former tests because it exempts migrants who come here on account of persecution in their own country. If persons who lack the rudiments of school training are a menace when they come without the propulsion of persecution at home, why are they not a menace when they come with such propulsion? The motive of Congressman Meeker and other supporters of the bill {fs a restriction on all immigration—that narrow, un-American desire to establish discriminations of all sorts betweeti Americans of native and foreign origin which every little while makes its appearance in our history. In this purpose, they propose a test which is dishonest, inconclusive, illogical. That it will obstruct the entrance of some members of races it is particularly desised to exclude is only a coincidence. It is picked for enactment because less indirect, less dishonest tests would make trouble under our treaties. Ex-Speaker Cannon, himself of long American lineage, presented the argument of Americanism in his championship of the unrestricted immi- gration policy of the past. He indicated what the country might have lost, had this test been enacted in 1790, the date of the first Federal census, whose results were published with the family names of thoge enumerated. The families —— — of hundreds of Americans of the first sega oe en apd usefulness were introduced inte thig 4 te ase country subsequent to that ye@r. Great numbers of the heads of these immigrant families could not have passed the literary test. Only about a third of the members of the present Congress seem to have any claim to be descended from persons here in 1790. Can any Meeker assert that the country would not lose as much, or even more, in the next 125 years if a literary test is applied in 1916? = = * —- ~~ = Perhaps Secretary Daniels could name an Ana- nias club outclassing even the famous T.

To the citizens of St. Louis who sent a tele- gram to the President and the Missouri delega- tion in Congress, urging support of adequate national defenses for the present emergency and universal compulsory military training and serv- a. &. - join the ‘army. The answer is cheap. It is discreditable to the Speaker’s fairness, intelligence and patriotism. No provision has been made by Congress for an adequate army if these citizens wanted to join and were accepted. Few American citizens have anv military training and. a very large per- centage would be rejected on account of age and physical disabilities. It is no reflection on the patriotism or the courage of. an American that he is not in the phantom army Congress has provided, or that he doesn’t want to serve in it in time of peace. There is no room for them in the army, and the country does not want a regular army large enough to accommodate one-half of 1 per cent of the population. Yet Clark tries to divert at- tention from congressional neglect and folly by unfairly reflecting on the standard of | citizen- ship and motive of the citizens who are trying to do their duty to the country by making their representatives do their duty. The plan of universal training and _ seryice that Mr. Wade, Mr. Lambert and the citizens who indorsed the telegram urged upon Con- gress, will compel every citizen available for military service to serve in the army and to train thoroughly for service. It covers the very point that Speaker Clark tried in a feeble, dema- gogic way to make against them. It requires them and all other citizens to respond to the country’s call and to be ready for the call. = = * — SS If T.

What prizes of the war can compensate for the fearful price that must be paid for them? If the winner gained all tre various contestants will lose, the game might be worth the while. But the winnings will consti- tute only a negligible part of the total losses. The victors will be distinguished from the van- quished only by slight differences in the crushing weight of disaster imposed. hp. Li Li» rw GIVE US THE TRAINING CAMP! It is good news that the Secretary of War thinks favorably of a military training camp for St. Louis. The camp would be a civic benefit as well as military and a good investment of time, energy and interest, come peace or war. Secondary to the military purpose, the physical benefits of a healthful out-of-doors life, vigorous exercise, discipline, good food and association with a fine lot of men, cannot be overestimated. And especially a bond of intimacy between men is formed based on hard work in camp, which will redound to the welfare of St. Louis from the civic standpoint. It has been the experience of Platts- burg and the other camps that statesmen and leg- islators, municipal officials, lawyers, bankers and merchants and day laborers have stood elbow to elbow in the ranks, with benefits and results of pride to all. Their common cause and common purpose make better and more understanding and more efficient citizens of them all. The whole effect of the training must be to deepen the individual’s sense of responsibility as a unit of the community and servant of the nation, to say no more of the physical and moral benefits. An advisory committee of university presidents made a recent report on the camps, which have been in operation three summers, and this is their finding: The excellence of food, sanitation and medi- cal care has been well maintained. The students have an ideal five weeks’ opting, pleasurable and beneficial to them; and the instruction, drill, cavalry exercises, field maneuvers, field surveying and field work generally give them in thg continuous five weeks’ training, an insight into military mat- ters. They are, in addition to this regular work, given ample time for recreation and rest. We commend the camps to the authorities and students of the universities and colleges of the country. We believe that the training and instruction which the students attending receive not only emphasize the dangers and losses of the wars lightly and urpreparedly entered into, but we also belfeve that the training given is excellent, and a great benefit, mental and physical, to the students attending. Attendance at-the camp is not tantamount to enlistment in the army. It increases neither legal nor moral obligation to serve in case of war. Men come out of it as free as when they entered, but better citizens. President Wilson explained in a recent message the idea on which the camps are organized: “It will be right enough, right American policy, based upon our accustomed prin- ciples and practices, to provide a system by which every citizen who will volunteer for the training may be made familiar with the use of modern arms, the rudiments of drill and maneuver, and the maintenance and sanitation of camps. We should encourage such training and make it a means of discipline which our young men will learn to value.” The Government has an army training camp at Nevada, Mo., completely equipped with rifle ranges, Warehouses and water supply, ready for use. This is within a nigkt’s ride of St. Louis and woulu probably be the best location. But whether there or at Arcadia or Jefferson Barracks, the calsp should be provided for St. Louis without deiay : SOR anima peter sere Wyre HOE aS - . ii “ ts a iaiaaaninnin lal a ee oe Bic?

W Orimson and amber and gold— In this old, wide-open doorway, With the elm boughs overhead, HERE the mountains slope to the westward, And their purple chalices hold The new-made wine of the sunsct. The house all garnished behind her, And the plentiful table spread, She had stood to welcome our coming, Watching our upward climb, In the sweet June weather that brought us, Oh! many and many a time! Today, in the gentle splendor Of the early summer noon— Perfect in sunshine and fragrance, Although it is hardly June— Again is her doorway opened, And her heart is garnishefl and sweet; But she silently waits for our coming, And we enter with silent feet. A little within she is waiting; Not where she had met us before; For over the pleasant threshold She is only to cross once more. The smile on her face is quiet, And a lily on her breast. Her hands are folded together, And the word on her lips is ‘‘rest.’’ And yet it looks like a welcome, For her work is compassed and done; All things are seemly and ready, And her summer is just begun. It is we who may not cross over; Only with song and prayer A little way into glory We may reach, as we leave her there. But we cannot think of her idle; She must be a homemaker still: z " a ~ . ~~ Fr . si Soe A ees SPP MoE Wt Z. -u¢ 4 . pee , .» > ai .* . —_ ~ ay ~~ e ee ep’ Oe . oe TWO? ee ~~! . 3a ‘ _ . " r.
