PRESIDENT AT THE CIRCUS EATS PEANUTS, HAS FINE TIME Crowd Cheers Him and Mrs. Wilson, Moxes as If to Voss Het in the Ring. WASHINGTON, May 9.—Presidert Wilson went to the circus last night. Seated on the front row, fanning him- self and Mrs.. Wilson with a palm leaf fan, and sharing a bag of peanuts with Secretary McAdoo, he apparently lost nothing of the holiday spirit of the occa- sion. A group of clowns who carried out their funniest antics just in front of him found a particularly appreciative spectator in the President, who many times sat back in his chair and laughed heartily. When the party entered the big tent, the crowd of several thousand rose and cheered. As he passed one of the rings, the President took off his hat and laugh- ingly made a motion as if to throw it tn. The crowd quickly caught the point and applauded again. The President and his party stayed until the very end of the show, and were almost the last to leave. He smiled broadly when a “peace ship”’ manned By fighting sailors and com- manded by a clown made up to repre- sent former Secretary Bryan passed the ring. PIGS ARE RED, WHITE AND BLUE Boston Lawyer Retires From Profes- sion to Handle Hog Farm. BOSTON, May 9.—To devote all his time to raising hogs and the breeding of a red, white and blue pig, on his farm at Peabody, George C. Griffith, a friend of August Belmont and a Harvard grad- uate, has given up the practice of law in Boston. A Blue hog is his latest suc- cessful experiment. He has on his farm 9000 black, red, white and blue pigs and he proposes to extend the last three strains. Six years ago Attorney Griffith an- nounced his intention of going into a “cleaner’’ business. Today his profits from pigs exceed by far his legal re- tainers. PETRIFIED BODY IN A MINE Specamen Perfect and Apparently Fossi] of White Man. BECKLEY, W. Va., May 9.—Miners for the East Gulf Coal Co. have un- earthed the body of a petrified man. The fossil is a perfect specimen of the human body and is apparently that of a white man. The petrified body was found sev- eral hundreq feet below the surface. The fossil was placed on exhibition in the office of the coal company, i WOMAN KILLS HER MOTHER, 64, AFTER QUARREL IN HOWE Mrs. Helen Moore, Arrested, Begs to Be Permitted to Kiss Body. SISTER TELLS OF FIGHT Says She Tried to Prevent Shooting, but Revolver Was Discharged. Mrs. Helen Moore, 34 years old, shot and killed her mother, Mrs. Helen Paus, 64, in the basement of their home, 2623 Ohio avenue, at 11 o’clock this merning. The shooting followed a quarrel, in which Mrs. Moore had been «rrayed against her mother and her sister, Mrs. Carrie Hartmann. Mrs. Moore was ar- rested. The first floor of the house was oc- cupied by Mrs. Hartmann, her husband, Samuel Hartmann, a telegraph lineman, ard Mrs, Paus. Mrs. Aoore, who came here recently from Flat River, Mo., oc- cupied the basement with her sons, Hermanh, 14, and Roy, 12. An older son, Frank, is away at school. Mrs. Moore’s husband is a traveling photographer and is not in St. Louis When policemen sejzea Mrs. Moore, a few minutes after the killing, she begged that she.might be permitted to kiss hér mother, whose body lay in a corner of the basement room. The . policemen granted her this privilege. The two boys were weeping hysteri- cally and Mrs. Moore was lamenting her act. The room was disarranged, in- dicating that there had been a fight before the shooting. Mrs. Hartmann told policemen that Mrs. Moore had a violent temper, and that it had been difficult for the others in the house to get along with her. Yes- terday afternoon, she said, the mother went to talk with her, in the hope of persuading her to act reasonably, but Mrs. Moore drove her back upstairs. This morning, the mother went down- stairs again, Mrs. Hartmann accom- panying her. Mrs. Moore was so abus- ive, her sister said, that the mother said to her, “‘I’ll slap your face.” At this remark, Mrs. Hartmann said, Mrs. Moore took a revolver from the bureau drawer, and pointed it at her mother. Mrs. Hartmann said she seized her sister and tried to make her put down the weapon, but that it was dis charged. The bullet passed through Mrs. Paus’ body, near the heart; caus- ing immediate death. Mrs. Moore told policemen that her mother and sister had sided together against her, and had ordered her to move, although her rent on the base- ment was paid until May 17. This morn- ing, she said, her mother and sistes# threw a washtub and washboard at her. She got a revolver. When the mother and sister entered the room, she said, ‘ ch grabbed one of her arms. In the struggle, she said, the revolver was dis- charged, and her mother was shot. She said she had sent her oldest son for a policeman before she got the revolver.

A secret committee of three, to be se- lected by the Finance Committee of the National Conventions Association, will distribute, -among the contributors to the $100,000 fund for the Democratic National convention, all the seats which are allotted to the local committee. The convention opens June 14. This allotment will be made to in- dividuals and corporations on the basis of the money contributed by them. The local committee will not sell any tickets, according to James E. Smith, head of the committee. He said today that the committee had already raised its $100,- 000, and that it would not follow the plan of the Chicago committee, which plans to sell seats at $50 or $100 each to make up its fund for the. Republican convention. There were 4267 contributors to the fund which brought the Democratic convention here There is no expecta- tion, Smith said, that the local com- mittee will get that number of seats. It does not yet know how many seats it will get. The Chicago committee got 2200. As soon as this has been deter- mined, the committee will decide on a plan of distribution, to the contributors. Minimum to Be Fixed. Some minimum, such as $0 or $100, will be fixed, Smith said, and every contributor will get one ticket for each $50 or each $100 he has given. The seats for general spectators in the convention here will be in the bal- conies. The arena balcony, according to the Coliseum management, seats 2661 persons and the upper balcony 3348, making a total] of 6009. From this total the local committee and the Democratic National Committee will have to be provided for. . The arena will be reserved for dele- gates, alternates and the press, and the bexes will probably be given to Gov- ernors, United States Senators and oth- er notable persons. | The most important alteration in the Coliseum, now under consideration by National Committeeman Goltra, is the advisability of removing about 100 feet of the roof and installing a permanent glass roof, to provide better light and ventilation. The whole interior of the Coliseum is to be gprayed with white paint. Chairman McCombs announced that he had appointed Charles A. White of New York City, well known as a ref- eree of boxing contests, as doorkeeper of the convention. CORONER FREES Mc, KELLER Woman Who Killed Husband to Have Grand Jury Hearing, However.

MUST WITHD OBREGON REPUDIATES PROTOCOL; “U, S, TROOPS RAW AT ONCE” Carranza Minis er Admits Strategical Placing of His Troops and Tells Gen. Scott “All Is Fair in War.” By CLAIR KENAMORE. A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. EL PASO, Tex., May 9.—Returning to his original position, which was set forth. exclusively in the Post-Dispatch the day of the first meeting, that United States soldiers must get out of Mexico at once, Gen. Alvaro Obregon motored Lever to the private car of Gens. Scott and Funston yesterday afternoon and delivered us final his first ujtimatum. Defiantly and impudently he made it out they must fight. This denouncing of the agreement puts the controversy up to Washington, un- less the Mexicans find some way of backing down. It’ is not likely that They will endeavor to do s0. The decision on withdrawing’ the troops at once rests with the State Je- partment, and as today is Cabinet day it is probable that a decision will be reached before night. That the troops should be withdrawn in the face of such a threat is unthink- able on the border where other. foreign affairs receive little or no considera- tion. Says Means to Make Troops With- draw Would Be Found. The last conference had little of the geniality and pleasant words. of the pre- vious ones. Obregon made it clear that he was talking of war, with all” that war means. The tentative agreement, drawn up and signed at the Hotel Dele- norte, he said, did not meet the .ap- proval of the First Chief, and he formal- ly disavowed it. The American expedi- tion must be at once returned to the United States, he said. “And if we do hot withdraw our troops at once, what?’ asked Gen., Scott. “The Mexican Government will find means to cause them to get out,’’ Ob- regon replied. “You are perhaps not aware,” Scott said sarcastically, “‘that Trevino has brought all his army out of Durango to Chihuahua City. You doubtless woul nit have led us to believe that an agree- ment was reached, and still prepare for war.”’ “War is my trade,” said Obregon. “You would expect me to take ordinary precautions.’ As the conference, which lasted less than an hour, progressed, the words grew more heated and the gestures more violent. “I presume you are very proud of your duplicity,” said Scott. “All is fair in war,” said Obregon with a shrug of his shoulders. “Why did you sign this agreement if you did not intend to keep it?” Scott First Chief. He is a@ wise man. If it were not for his wisdom this folly might known that if the troops did not gety of Sonora, had stopped on his journey to Mexico City and had returned yesterday to Sonora, that Obregon’s train had steam up and that Trevino’s army was in Chihuahua City, Obregon again made clear his meaning and left no doubt that armed conflict was what was offered as the alternative for a refusal to with- draw the troops at once. He did not edge which the Americans had of the movements af his troops. The American conferees, before 5 p. m. appeared confident that an agreement would be reached. The conference was supposed to be the last of the series. Scott and Fuston were arranging to | depart and there was steam in the three gon and Juan Amador, Assistant Secre- tary of State of Mexico, motored over to the private car occupied by Gena. Scott and Funston and the conference began. A. J. McQuatters, a mining man and an intrepeter, also was present. Crisis Apparent to Watchers. Through the open windows of the car the debaters could be seen talking earnestly. El] Pasoans, homeward bound, passed by the car which is at the crogs- ing of the railroad tracks and a busy street. They showed little interest in the figures within or in the aids and orderlies resting in the shade outside. After an half hour, everyone in the car sprang to his feet. It was apparent a crisis had come. They stood a moment and then all again were seated, and a pitcher of lemonade was brought in. Everyone drank and then cigarettes were lighted and soon the Mexicans de- p-rted. No papers were signed and the “adios’’ were said inside the car. Obregon smiled pleasantly and sa- luted acquaintances in the party of half a dozen outside. Amador spoke a mo- ment with Funston and hurriedly en- tered the car and drove away. Neither Gen.. Scott nor Gen. Funston would see the newspaper men. This is the first time since the series of conferences be- gan that they have refused. Gen. Funston was asked today if he would send more troops into the Big Bend country to join in the chase of the bandits who killed three troopers at Gienn Springs Friday. He said: “I have not got any more.” Hepe for a “Ho¢ Trail” Remote. Maj. Langhorne and Maj.

The orders were issued after a brief conference between President Wilson and Secretary Baker vver a joint report from Gens. Scott and Funston at El Paso. The two officers stated that the Glenn Springs raid made it piain that the border guard must be materially in- creased. Secretary Baker issued this state- ment: Reason for Calling Militia. “The outbreak in the Big Bend dis- trict of the Rio Grande has so far fur- ther emphasized the danger of similar occurrences along our long border thax the President has called out the ailitia of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas and directed them to report to Gen. Funston, who will assign them to stations along the * »rder for patrol duty. ‘In addition to that, two additional regiments of regular infantry (subse- quently given out as three) have been di- rected to proceed to the border and such further arrangements will be made as are necessgry for the complete security of the people of the United States against raids of this character.” After a brief Cabinet meeting, at which the Mexican situation was very thcroughly discussed, Secretary Baker announced that no more movements of militia or regular troops to the border was in contemplation. Secretary Baker said the orders send- ie: EL PASO, Tex., May 9.—Arrangements for another conferet ) between Gens. Scott and Obregon were being made today. . Gen.

Carranza’s Ambassador, said he had told the Secretary “there is not an ‘+ jota of truth” in reports from the border that Gen. Obregon has demanded the withdrawal of American troops. “The de facto Government,” Mr. Ar- redondo said, ‘‘has official and accurate »- information that the attack on Glenn - Springs was organized in the United * States.

MARATHON,Tex., May 9.—One hundred and twenty cavalrymen of Troops F and H of the Fourteenth Cavalry and a ma- chine gun troop, left the new army base here for the Mexican boundary soon after sunrise today. The men are in- tended to reinforce the two troops of cavairy which started yesterday for Glenn Springs, the settlement near the Rio Grande, which was raided by a band of Mexican bandits last Friday night. The two troops that went southward today were under the command of Col. Frederick W. Sibley, who will be in charge of all the American forces now moving to Glenn Springs and Boquillas. These forces will augment the scattered detachments of cavalrymen who “have ow guarding the border in that vicin- y. Word is eagerly awaited today from Capt. Casper Cole, who with a detach- along the Rio Grande near the scene of the raid to ascertain if any bandits are still lurking on this side wf the river. Cowmen returning from the Big Bend country declare with positiveness that there are many bands of Villa followers awaiting an opportunity to ford the Rio Grande and make other attacks on lonely American homes and ranches. Private Roscoe Tyree, the soldier who was thought to have been captured by the Mexicans, was brought here injured last night. His right arm and foot were badly burned in the fire that drove him and his comrades from the adobe house at Glenn Springs. Tyree fled down a creek, where he was found the next day. Sergeant Smyth, who commanded the Glenn Springs detachment, came in with him on a truck. Oscar G. Compton, who also had been reported missing, reached here in an au- tomobile from Glenn Springs. Comp- ton’s little boy, Garnett, was riddled with bullets in the raid. Compton told how the Mexicans surrounded the lit- tle settlement, with the apparent ob- ject of killing all the soldiers and then sacking the place at their leisure. “I heard the sound of many feet upon the rocks,’’ said Compton, whose home was only a short distance from the soldier encampment, ‘‘and then two Mex- icans with handkerchiefs tied across their faces, stuck their heads in the front door and asked if any soldiers were there. I nnswered them and looked out and saw yelling Mexicans coming from all dinections. “They opened fire on the adobe house where the soldiers were. I got my rifle and counted my cartridges. I had only a hundred. Sitting at the window I wailed for them to attack. ‘‘My 8-year-old girl, Louise, with her two little brothers, Howard and Gar- nett, tumbled out of bed. Louise was frightened by the yelling and I picked her up and carried her out of the, back door to the shack of a Mexican washer woman, who took care of her. “I started back to the house to get Garnett and Howard. Garnett is only 4 and his brother 6 years old. But I could not make it. The Mexicans were too thick and I could not shoot my way through them. I emptied my gun, but they crowded me and I had to head away to the creek and slip behind a rock. In the morning I found Tyree with his feet and arms burned, wander-. ing in the creek bottom.” Compton and Tyree went toward the camp, and finding a body of Mexicans still there turned back and hid in a cave. Here they remained until Satur- Gay afternoon, when they entered Glenn Springs. Compton learned that his son Garnett had been shot and that his body | had been taken to Marathon, Kienzle, ment of 23 men is threading the trails FAY, LEADER WN SHIP BOMB PLOTS GETS EIGHT YEARS Schott, His Brother-in-Law, and Daeche, His En@loye, Sen- tenced to 4 Years. “EXAMPLE TO OTHERS” Judge Howe Criticises Defendant ‘for Trying to Carry War Into the U. S.”’ NEW YORK, May 9.—Robert Fay, former Lieutenant in the German army, convicted in the Federal Court yester- day of conspiracy to destroy munitions ships of the allies through bomb con- trivances, was today sentenced to eight years in the Federal penitentiary at At- lanta. Walter Scholz, his and Paul Daeche, also convicted, sentenced to four years and two years, respectively, Judge Howe holding that they did not originate the conspiracy and deserved less severe punishment than Fay. The three were also fined $2 each. Talking from the bench, beside which were heaped bombs, explosives and oth- er exhibits introduced during the 10-day trial, Judge Howe said to Fay: “According to your testimony’ you committed a grave crime against Ger- many by deserting your post and coun- try where you were engaged in lawful warfare to come here, where you have committed still graver crimes against this nation for the purpose of helping Germany in the war. U. S. Laws Binding. “Altogether too many things have been happening in this country since the war commenced. This Court is going brother-in-law, were others that this country is not a proper place in which to carry on the war and that our laws are still binding motwith- standing the war in Germany.’ Under the conspiracy of which the three were convicted, three other de- fendants are to be tried—Dr. Herbert Engelbert Bronkhorst and Max Breitung. The Government charged that Fay was the leader in the conspiracy and that Scholz and Daeche aided him. Fay was arrested in New Jersey as he was about to experiment with power- ful explosives. Daeche was successfu: in fighting extradition from New Jersey for several months, .but finally was given into the custody of this district. Baltimore, was indicted by the Federal grand jury here yesterday charged with procuring a false passport for Horst von der Goltz, confessed spy. Another in- dictment was handed down charging Wolfe von Igel, former secretary of Capt. Franz von Papen, recalled Ger- man military attache; Dr. Walter D. Scheele already indicted in the alleged “fire bomb’’ plot, and Gustave Stein- berg, alleged aid of Franz von Rintelen, German agent, with conspiring to falsify a ship’s manifest in sending a cargo of lubricating oil to Germany. Consul Is Accused. The indictment against Consul Lude- ritz charges that he obtained a passport for Von der Goltz in the name of Bridg- man W. Taylor, from the Secretary of State at Washington on Aug. 2, 1914, and that on Oct. 2 of the same year the passport was vised by the Italian Con- sul-General here. On the following day Von der Goltz sailed for Genoa, Italy, on board the Italian liner Duca d'Aosta. According to Federal officials, the new indictment against Wolfe von. Igel and Dr. Scheele was made possible by the | papers seized in the former office of the recalled military attache, Von Papen, at the time of Von Igel’s arrest. They al- lege these papers show that freight charges for shipment of the oil were paid by Von Igel while acting as secre- tary to Von Papen. The indictmetn states that the lubri- cating oil was manufactured at the plant of the New Jersey Agricultura! Chemical Co. of Hoboken, N. J., between Jan. 1, 1915, and Nov. 13, 1915, and that on Aug. 6 of that year Dr. Scheele as head of the concern arranged for the shipment of 720 bags of the oil, chem- ically reduced to powder and billed as fertilizer, on the steamship Esrom of the Inter-Ocean Transportation Co. of America, Inc., to Germany via Sweden. It was in Dr. Scheele’s plant that the bombs in the “fire bomb” plot were al- ieged to have been manufactured. Paid the Freight. Dr. Scheele engaged as shipper Fred- erick Henjes Jr. of this city, the Gov- ernment alleges. Prior to the depar- ture of the Esrom, according to the in- dictment, Von Igel paid to Henjes the freight charges for the il. He gave Henjes two checks, one dated Aug. 7, 1915, for $1910.75, and the other dated Oct. 5, 1915, for $906.75 The oil never reached its destination. The Esrom was séized by the British and its cargo confiscated. The part that Steinberg played in the alleged conspiracy is not divulged. Oth- ers, referred to as “‘persons unknown,” also are alleged to have taken part in the plot. ¥ German Consul Surprised at Indictment. BALTIMORE, Md., May 9.—I know nothing about this case of Horst von der Goltz except what I have read in the papers,’’ said Cari A.

LONDON, May 9—The casualties in Dublin in the recent uprising were 124 killed, 388 wounded and 9 missing, a total of 521 amv..g His Majesty’s troops and the Royal Irish Constabulary, Premier Asquith wunnounced in the House of Commons today. The casualties were divided as follows: “Army officers, 17 killed, 46 wounded; other ranks, 8 killed, 311 wounded 9 missing. “Royal Irish Constabulary, 12 killed, 23 wounded. ‘Dublin metropolitan police, 3 killed, 3 wounded. “Royal Navy, 1 killed, 2 wounded. ‘“‘Royal volunteers, 5 killed, 3 wound- ed.”’ Executions and arrests in Ireland were again discussed in the House of Com- mons this afternoon in the form of ques- tions to Premier Asquith. William O’Brien, Nationalist member for the City of Cork, asked whether the Premier was aware that hundreds of men from Cork and Tipperary had been arrested without any charge being stated, and were confined in the Cork jail, where they were treated with the utmost harshness. He.also asked wheth- er steps would be taken to allay the universal public indignation at the reign of ‘terror which had been established and why the military had raided the of- fices of the Cork Free Press, which had advocated recruiting since the outbreak of the war. Premier Asquith said he would make diligent inquiries into the matters al- luded to in Mr. O’Brien’s questions. A veritable volley of questions was directed at the Premier from all sides of the house. Some members asked whether he was aware of the ‘grave concern’’ felt over the losses which Loyalists had suffered. Philip Edward Morrell, Liberal member for Burnley, inquired whether F. Sheehy Skeffington, editor of the Irish Citizen, had been shot in the barrack square in Dublin before martial law was proclaimed, and Timothy Healy asked whether the Pre- mier knew whether the editors of the newspapers opposed to the revolt kad been shot without trial at tortobello Barracks without time being given them to say their prayers. SINN FEIN TRIALS END; EXECUTIONS TOTALED TWELVE DUBLIN, May 9.—The courts-martial which have been sitting on the Sinn Feiners’ cases have completed their work. All Government employes in Lre- land have been ordered to report their movements, in view of the fact that a number of minor officials are known to have been members of the Sinn Feiners. Four more of the leaders in the revolt have been executed, according to an of- ficial statement. They were Cornelius Colbert, Edmund Kent, Michael Mallon and J. J. Heuston. Nineteen others con- cerned in the insurrection were sen- tenced to death, but the sentence was conimuted to various terms of penal servitude. Qn three others prison terms were imposed. Two were acquitted. Twelve altogether were executed. Father Watters, president of the Cath- olic University School here, fs dead from gunshot wounds.

WASHINGTON, May 9.—Supplies for- warded by the American Red Cross for war relief in Europe reached a_ total | value of more than $1,000,000 during the Of These 124 Were Killed, 388 was announced by the War Office today Who}, I CLAIM GAINS IN FIERCE FIGHTING ALONG MEUSE Berlin Reports Capture of Trenches Near Hau- court— Paris Tells of Repulsing Night At- tack in Ferce on Hill 304. PARIS, May 9.—After a violent bom- bardment of the French positions on Hill 304 on the Verdun front the Ger- man. attempted an advance at 3 o’clock this morning. The War Office an- nounces this afternoon that the attack was repulsed completely. French coun- ter a‘tacks east of the Meuse drove the Germans from certain positiens they had captured. The positions recaptured by French consisted of some parts trenches northwest of Thiaumont. An intense bombardment was con- ducted by the Germans in the sectors of Eix and Chatillon and between Douaumont and Vaux. There was grenade fighting at Apre- mont and in the valley of the Fecht. South of Autreches, near Soissons, the Germans attempted an attack, but were repulsed. At Bolante, in the Argonne, the French captured two small German posts, killing all the occupants. The latest assaults of the Germans on the defenses of Verdun are said to have served to demonstrate the high pitch of efficiency to which the French have brought the use of the machine gun. The French front line trenches ere being defended by machine guns with comparatively few men to serve them, and with the addition of new au- tomatic rifles, two of which are equiv- alent to one machine gun. The 48-hour preliminary bombardment of the Germans is described by eyewit- nesses as more severe than anything which hitherto has been experienced and it is remarked that the Germans were justified in believing no human being could have lived in the zone sub- jected to this bombardment. Never- theless the French are such adepts at constructing underground shelters that when the German infantry stepped from the trenches, scores of well-placed ma- chine guns opened concentrated fire, thinning the ranks of the attackers be- fore the advance was fairly begun. French officers state that the losses of the Germans in proportion to fhe num- ber engaged were as great as in any other action of the war. It is said that a Prussian division which was engaged on Saturday on the Haudremont Wood- Thiaumont Farm-Douaumont Fort line lost more than 50 per cent of its effec- tives. GERMANS GAIN NEAR HAUCOURT BERLIN, via London, May 9.~The capture of several French trenches on the Verdun front south of Haucourt the of The text of today’s official statement is as follows: “In connection with our success at Hill 304 we took, south of Termiten Hill, to the south of Haucourt, several trenches by storm. Attempts by the en- emy to recapture with strong forces the terrain lost on Hill 304 failed. The enemy’s losses were heavy. “Other attacks by the French on the, east bank of the Meuse in the district of Thiaumont Farm were equally un- successful. The number of French taken prisoner there increased to three officers and 375 men, besides 16 wound- ed. Nine machine guns also were taken.” Two Aeroplanes Drop Bombs on Port Said.

LONDON, May %—The British Ad- miralty denies that the British and French have transported Servian troops on hospital ships, in fear of submarines. This is in reply to a wireless dispatch from Berlin sent out by the Overseas ‘News Agency, quoting Athens advices to the effect that the Red Cross flag has been violated by both the British and French in this way. to Be Preparing for Advance, BERLIN, via wireless to Sayville, May 9.—Preparations for another advance on Egypt are being made by the Turks, the Overseas News Agency reports. ‘‘The construction of a railroad through the desert is being advanced rapidly, ac- cording to complete dispatches,’ the news agency says. ‘In view of their defeat at Quatia and the possibility of another surprise attack, the British are conducting aeroplane raids constantly along the front east of the canal, with the intention of destroying the railroad. The native tribes have been deeply im- pressed by the recent British failure.” Turks Said Three British Generals Besides Townshend Surrendered at Kut-el-Amara. BERLIN, via wireless to Sayville, May 8 says that three British Generals, be- sides Gen. Townshend, the command- fing officer; one Colonel and one artil- lery commander were captured at Kut- el-Amara. Forty cannon, 20 machine guns, nearly 5000 rifles, three aeroplanes and large quantities of ammunition and supplies also were captured. The statement also gives,a delayed report on a battle in March in Southern Arabia, near the British port of Aden. After a fight of two hours the British retired, the War Office says, having lost more than 300 men. $3 000,000 SCHOOL BUILDING BONDS T BE RECOMMENDED! Ge Finance Committee’s Report Will Be Made to Board of Education Tonight. The Finance Committee of the Board of Raucation will make a report tonight recommending a bond issue of $3,000,000 to carry out the building program for the next few years. The report will be tased on the ground that all the gen- ¢ral revenue derived from the school tax is needed to maintain the system of instruction at its present standard. Herman Mauch, chairman of the Yinance Committee, sald today that ‘he bond issue was thought to be the best solution of the problem. The work of the night schools and in special courses was considerably curtailed last winter because of shortage of funds, and Ben Blewett, Superintendent of Schools, has announced that the probability of night schools being conducted next year is 1e- mote if the necessary building expendi- tures have to come out of the general echoul fund. The passage of the bond issue, accord- ing to Mauch and Blewett, would en- abie full reinstatement of the night schools and special courses. The committee will recommend that a boni election be called by the Board of Education for some time in Septem- ber. A form of contract will be sub- rsitted which it is proposed to en‘er into with the iaw firm of Dillon, Thoin- fun & Clay of New York, for expert o4- ‘ice as to the campaign and the prep- aration of the issue in order to make !t legal.

The Board of Education is empowered by statute to call a bond election on its own initiative. The city must then hold the election and pay the expense, which fs about $70,000, It is said that this will be the first time the Board of Education ever has asked for a bond issue. been borne out of the school tax, which at present is © cents on the $100.

NEW YORK, May 9.—At least four persons were killed and many injured today in an explosion at the Atlas Powder Co. at Lake Hopatcong, N. J., north of Newark. One report was that from 5&8 to 100 had been killed. Hospi- tals within a radium of % miles were asked to send assistance or hold them- selves in readiness to receive injured. The buildings near the shore all around the lake were damaged and great clouds of smoke almost shut out the sun. Windows were shattered for miles. The explosion occurred at Landing, N. J. at the soithern end of the lake. The plant was used for the manufacture of acids, which were shipped to other points to be used in making smokeless powder for war munitions. Dynamite was also stored at the works and pow- der mixed there. Between 600 and 1000 men were employed. One report had it that nearly a hun- dred were more or less seriously in- jured, Information regarding the explosion was refused at the local offices of the company here.

Mayor and Comptroller Op- J posed to Allowing Appropria- tion Necessary for Extra Help, ~~ Members of the Efficiency Board de@- — clare the beard: cannot perform the work of standardizing and classifying work in the varicus departments im- — posed on it by the new city charter un- less Mayor Kiel and Comptrolier Player agree to restore an appropriation of — $4000 that was cut from the estimate — ir preparing the budget this year. | Chairman Rogers of the Efficiency Board has informed the Mayor and Comptroller that he considers it obliga- tory and not optional that the board standardize department work, as the charter used the mandatory “shall” in directing that this be done. Comptroller Player told Chairman Rogers that it is not compulsory that standardizatibn be undertaken at this time, and in view of the fact the city is facing a deficit of $300,000 in ita rev~- enues for the fiscal year ending next April, much important work in all de- partments has been postponed. To study the problem of classifying the employes of each department and standardizing the different grades of work, Chairman Rogers says it will re- quire the addition of three clerks to the staff of 11, including three board mem- bers, which now exists. | Mayor Kiel suggested that the Effi- clency Board borrow clerks from other departments at such times as they can be spared, but Rogers said the work will require special training and could not be performed well if it were neces- sary to break in a new man every few days or weeks. The investigation necessary in every city department could not be intrusted to employes of the department, Rogers said, as it will consist mainly of check- ing up the claims and assertions made by department heads and subordinates. The purpose of standardization, Rog- ers explained to a Post-Dispatch report- er, is to equalize ihe pay and duties of workmen and officials of all kinds. At present, Rogers said, each department has its own standard or in fact several standards, which creates the widest dif- ferences in the pay of city employes who perform the same class of work. A clerk in the Water Department may be drawing 3125 a month while one in the tax assessment division may be get- ting only $60 a .,aonth when the duties of both are identical. A thorough standardization, Rogers said, would result in the elimination of sinecures which exist now in many de- partments. The Efficiency Board was allowed $2,- 000 in the budget this year, while the expenditures last year indicate thig sum will be $625 short of the amount neces- sary to carry on the same work for 12 months. Comptroller Player told Rog- ers the $625 shortage was the result of a clerical error and would be remedied in February by including the amount in the supplemental appropriation bill. The board asked for %29,000 this year, to cover all new work that ft is ready to begin, but Rogers said the minimum sum on which standardization and class- ification may be undertaken, is $26,625. Rogers, in a letter to Mayor Kiel re- cently intimated that unless the city au- thorities appropriated the $4000 which he considers necessary, the Efficiency Board might ask for voluntary contri- butions to carry on the new work or might accept the services of volunteers who are willing to do the work out of civic interest. Mayor Kiel and Comptroller Player both say they are opposed to such an arrangement, and do not think unofficial workers would be permissable under the law.

WASHINGTON, May 9.~America’s lat- est mote to Germany on the submarine controversy had gone forward to Berlin today, and administration officials are interested in knowing whether Germany will make any reply. It is intimated in German circles that the Imperial Gov- ernmemt may not consider an answer necessary. The text of the note made public last night shows that the United States ac- cepts the German promises that subma- rine warfare in the future will be altered to conform with recognized rules of in- ternational law. It insists, howecer, that Germany must not consider her respect for rights of American citizens on the high seas contingent on the conduct of any other belligerent with whom the United States may be negotiating. “Responsibility in such matters is sin- gle, not joint; absolute, not relative,’’ says the note. Lokal Anzeiger Article Construed as Criticism of Admiral von Tirpitz. BERLIN, via London, May 9.—A strik- ing article on German-American rela- tions, which is construed here as a criti- cism of Admiral von Tirpitz, appeared in the Lokal Anzeiger yesterday. After expressing approval of the German Gov- ernment’s reply- to the American note, the article says: j “The decision would have been easier if public opinion had not been influ- enced and inflamed in other directions by certain irresponsibles. It is jugt the same proposition as was the great mis- take made in announcing the subma- rine war on commerce, at the beginning of 1915, with great words and prescrib- ing for the untried weapon successes which it could not obtain. It was wrong to preach that the submarine commer- cial warfare was the only effective weapon against Enzland, although this may have been done with the best in- tentions. ‘‘Neutrals were led to prick up their ears by the pompous announcement of the new war method and difficult prob- lems in international law were need- lessly injected into the debate.

Senate conferees: were instructed to insist upon the proposal of a regular army of 250,000 men, rejected yesterday by the House; to continue to insist on a Federal volunteer reserve force of 21,000 men, and the Senate provision tw appropriate $15,000,000 for construc- tion of Government nitrate manufactur- ing plants. It is regarde@® as probable that the conferees may agree on a regular peace strength: army of approxima’ :ly 180,000 men, which could be expanded to 220,000, A tentative agreement to that effect had been reached. before the conferees came to a disagreement over othr fea- tures of the bill.

Responsibility in such matters is single, not joint; absolute, not relative.’’ Lansing’s Statement of American Position. Secretary Lansing gave out a part of the latest German reply dealt with questions concerning the conduct of other belligerents which the American Government could not discuss with the Berlin Government. Mr. Lansing’s statement follows: “The greater part of the German answer is devoted to matters which this Government cannot discuss with the German Government. The only questions which can be discussed with that Government are those arising out of their action or out of our own, and in no event those questions which are the subject of diplomatic exchanges be- tween the United States and any other country. “The essence of the answer is that Germany yields to our repre- sentations with regard to the rights of merchant ships and noncom- batants on the high seas and engages to observe thé recognized rules of international law governing naval warfare in using her submarines So long as she lives up to this altered policy, reason to quarrel with her on that score, though the losses resulting from the violation of American rights. by German sub- marine commanders operating under the former policy will have to be hd against mis ships. we can have fio settled. “While our differences with Great Britain cannot form a subject of discussion with Germany, it should be stated that in our dealings with the British Government we are acting as we are unquestionably bound to act, in view of the explicit ernment.

Norman M. Vaughan, whom Gov. Major has decided to appoint to the Board of Police Commissioners to suc- ceed Charles P. Williams, told a Post- Dispatch reporter today that he saw the Governor in St. Louis yesterday and that there was no discussion be- tween them relative to the Hayden Lor- ing killing or any other matter bearing upon his fitness for the appointment. Vaughan was asked whether the Gov- ernor, in making the appointment, had knowledge of the fact that he (Vaughan) had been convicted of manslaughter in the fourth degree in 1906, in conection with his having shot and killed Loring. Vaughan said he did not know whether the Governor had knowledge of the affair, but added that it was a matter of public record. The Loring case, Vaughan said, never had been discussed between them. Vaughan stated that Gov. Major toid him yesterday thai he would be appoint- ed as a Police Commissioner, but that he has not yet received his commission. Meeting in Afternoon. This meeting of Vaughan and the Gov- ernor, apparently, was in the afternoon, after the Post-Dispatch printed the Gov- ernor’s announcement of his intention to appoint Vaughan, and had printed Vaughan’s record in the Loring case. The appointment was announced shortly before noon, and Vaughan, at 2 p. m.. told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he knew nothing of the Governor's — to make him a Folice Commissionér Efforts of reporters to reach Gov.

Samuel B. McPheeters, President of the Police Board, said today to a Post- Dispatch reporter that “he never had heard of Vaughan and didn’t know who Vaughan was.’ He was asked whether he and the other two Commissioners, John J. Sheahan and Thomas S. Maf- fitt, had any intention of submitting resignations, to the Governor, as had been rumored for several weeks. Mc- Pheeters declined to make a statement. Pardoned by Gov. Folk. Vaughan is editor of the National Elk’s Horn, a paper devoted to the Order of Filks, and resides at 5723 Von Versen avenue. He shot Hayden Loring in November, 1904, at the Loring home on West Belle place, near Sarah street, in @ quarrel over a $1.60 balance on a board bill which Loring said _ the Vaughan family. owed. Vaughan was sentenced to t years in prison, and while an appeal was pending was par- doned by Gov. Folk, in December, 1906, with restoration of citizenship. Orrick Bishop, the trial Judge, asked for the pardon, stating that developments sub- sequent to the trial made it appear that Vaughan had acted in self-defense.

MAN WHO WAS JUGGLING OWN MONEY IN SALOON ARRESTED A man has to be careful how he han- dles money in St. Louis—even his own money. If you don’t believe it ask Jo- seph H. Aubuchon of Florissant, Mo. Two detectives were at Eighth and Market streets last night when an ex- cited person rushed up to them with the information that ‘a millionaire was throwing money around’ in a nearby saloon. The detectives went into the saloon and found the man in the center of the barroom surrounded by hobos. He had $50 bills rolled up into balls and wags juggling them. Every time he missed cne of the little green pellets he in- vited his audience to have a drink. The detectives watched the perform- ance for about five minutes and then arrested the juggler. He protested an- grily that he was playing with his own money and that the police had no right to interfere. Hie was taken to the police station and the police telephoned to Clayton to see if any of the officials there knew him. “We know him well,” was the an- swer. “‘He drew $361 trom his father’s estate today. How much has he left?’’ When Aubuchon’s money was counted ond it was found that he still had $361.50, the Clayton officials expressed surprise. ‘We thought it would all be gone by now,’ they said. Aubuchon was released this morning. YOUTH REPROVED FOR SWEARING TELLS POLICE HE KILLED MAN Auto Inspector Dies in Hospital From Shot Received While With Wife and Daughter.

CHILDREN WE WORRY ABOUT Close confinement in school during the past Winter, overstudy perhaps, an attack of the grip or tonsilitis, some one of these things is doubtless respon- sible for the condition of the child who shows a decline in.health now. Whatarethe symptoms? Pallor and languor, a fickle appetite, dark rings under the eyes, bronchial colds. Very often the best efforts of the family physician fail in such cases and the condition of the child causes the most intense anxiety. Cod-liver oil, so often prescribed, generally fails because the weak stomach is unable to digest fats. Try this treatment. Before break- fast each morning give the child the juice of half an orange.

MARIE, Mich., May 9.— Twenty persons are believed to have been drowned when the steamer 8S. R. Kirby of the Northwestern Transporta- tion Co. of Detroit and Cleveland, broke in two during a storm on Lake Superior yesterday and sank. The disaster oc- curred four miles off Eagle River, Mich. Otto Linquist, a stoker on the Kirby, was picked from floating wreckage by sailors on the steamer Joseph Block. Linquist declared he. saw the Kirby sink and that, so far as he knew, he was the only survivor. The Kirby was commanded by Capt. David Girardin Jr. of Detroit. The barge Hartwell, which the Kirby was towing, broke loose and was picked up by the steamer E. H. Utley, which towed her to shelter behind Keweenaw Point. The Kirby left Ashland Sunday even- ing, ore-laden for Cleveland. She ran into a terrific gale on Lake Superior early yesterday. The steamer made for Keweenaw Bay, but the storm increased in violence and at about 10:45 o'clock yesterday morning she broke in two. Linquist was thrown into the water and clambered onto floating debris. “I saw Capt. Girardin swimming 100 feet away,’ said Linguist. “I saw no other persons. The captain raised his hands, waved and sank.”’ Woman Accuses Negro Preacher.

John Cousley, a newspaper reporter, at the courthouse, bought at a Sheriff's sale yesterday 25 shares of stock in the St. Louis Street Machine Flushing Co., for $2.50, and was surprised to learn today that the stock was worth par, or $2500.

The President referred to hopes for peace in the world and in words, evi- dently carefully chosen, said that a na- tion regarded as helpless was apt to be regarded as negligible in a general coun- sel for eStablishing foundations for peace. ‘The committee was headed by Miss Lilian D. Wald, Rabbi Stephen S. Wise and Amos R. E. Pinchot, all of New York City; A. A. Berle of Cambridge, Mass., and John A. McSparran, legisla- tive chairman of the National Grange, who presented a memorial setting forth that while the Union did not stand against sane or reasonable preparedness nor for peace at any price, it was con- vinccad that the big army and navy pro- gram were a menace to democracy. President Listens; Answers Questions | The President was informed that these views had been voiced in the great cities of the Middle West and had met with enthusiastic indorsement. When the spokesmen of the delegation had sgupple- mented their memorial with brief speeches the President replied and for an hour listened to, and answered their questions. : “IT have never dreamed for a moment that America as a whole, its rank and or militaristic spirit,”” said the Presi- dent, ‘“‘and I think that it is very neces- sary, in order that we should work this thing out wisely, that we should carefully discriminate between reason- able preparation and militarism, be- cause, if you use the two words inter- changeably, then, of course, the reason- able things that we cought to do take on a wrong and sinister appearance and we seem to be working for the wrong things when we are in reality working US.MARINEG CUT PLUG TOBACCO U.

NEW YORK, May 9.—The cause of woman suffrage will son receive $1,- 000,000 from the estate of the late Mrs. Frank Leslie, through a decision of the surrogate here yesterday. Mrs. Leslie . bequeathed that amount to Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the International Woman's Suf- frage Alliance, to be used in promot- ing the suffrage campaign. Four grandchildren of Frank Leslie claimed they were parties at interest to the estate. But the surrogate ruled that the grandchildren were not legatees and that the residue of the estate should go to Mrs. Catt. One of the Want Ads in the Post- Dispatch Today May Be Worth a Dollar a Live to You, In the thousands of “want” offers ap- pearing in the Post-Dispatch from day to day hundreds are worth a dollar a line or more to that number of persons. Are you one of the hundreds who are reap- ing these dollars? For instance, a certain real estate of- fer if taken advantage of may become worth many times the amount suggest- ed: rent saving in a better home for less money may make a for rent ad worth much more; one good business op- portunity, investment or a help wanted offer bringing a better position—all these and at others make the dollar a line value real lindeed, Think of it, 68,180 want ads were print- ed in the Post-Dispatch last month, 3701 more than appeared in the four other newspapers combined.

Archer, who died in 1910. In Novémber, 1913, she police say, died suddenly on Feb. 20, 1914.

Egan of the State poiies said he has evidence showing that Mrs. Archer-Gilligan purchased large quanti- ties of a powerful poison within the last few years. Two days before An- drews’ death, Chief Egan says, she pur- chased twe ounces of poison at a Wind- sor drug store. Patients are admitted to the institu- tion under two classes. One class makes a cash payment of $1000, which insures eare for life. The other class makes weekly payments. It is said that An- drews, whose body was exhumed, was entitled to life care.

Kayser knows how to make this silk fabric pure and strong. There is no ‘weight- ing’ or ‘loading’ in the silk; you get a silkier \ glove, one that resists wear and fits better.” ‘They do fit better—why?’’ “Because they are cut and made correctly at the fac- tory by experts who have been making silk gloves for 30 years. See for yourself how shapely, how graceful they are:” “‘Are all, Kayser Silk Gloves per- fect?’’ “‘Yes, madam, because every Kayser Silk Glove is inspected four times before it gets to you. Each of the four inspectors is paid a bonus in addition to her regular salary for any defect she finds, and the fourth inspector gets four times as large a bonus as the first. This is the care that is taken to make our gloves perfect.” ‘‘How do they wash?’’ “They wash well when you follow directions. Even after repeated washings they look like > new, they do not shrink, the seams do not rip and the gloves retain their shape.” ‘‘What_ is' the proper way to wash. them?’’ “Use lukewarm water and a pure soap. Do not wring or twist gloves, and rinse them thoroughly because any soap left in the gloves will discolor them. Stretch them into shape, lay flat between a folded towel to dry.” “‘Do Kayser Gloves come in many styles?’’ “We have a saying— There's a Kayser Silk Glove for every occasion.’ There are plain gloves for shopping; ruffled ‘Queen Elizabeth’ for afternoon wear; and plain or tucked and embroidered long gloves for evening. Kayser Silk Gloves cost no more than the ordinary kind; whether two clasp, twelve button or sixteen button lengths Kayser’s always represent the best value at the price. The name Kayser is in the hem and with each pair is tips will outwear the gloves. * — « POESHRCEBAEPLRURAREEATRE LURE BREE GELRLIALCARL NE ESATLRRETATOSRBLERAION a guarantee ticket that the TUTITITIM IIE PLP TITUITT TD ” & ive oe > ¥ Pr: oa i

By CLAIR KENAMORE. A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. EL PASO, Tex., May 9.—Joseph Birck of Milwaukee, a private, yesterday told at the hospital at Fort Bliss of his part in the fight with the bandits at Glenn Springs Friday night. “We could not see to shoot accurate- ly and there was a lot of rifle smoke in the shack, but no one had been wound- ed,except me up to that time. They hit me with a 30-30 as I went in the door and I got a few buckshot in the other leg about the same time. “When they charged first the Mexi- cans cried ‘viva Villa.’ Later they hol- A Startling Wednesday Sale of Suits It would be startling for the ordinary store, which is not accustomed to announcing out-of-the-ordinary values with such frequency as -Garland’s, And even we have gone just a little beyond the limit this time, especially when you consider the fact that the Suits are all new and in the correct styles and fabrics for present and later wear at the Spring and Summer fashion resorts. 300 Suits From Our Best Selling $25. $27.50, $29.50 and $35 Lines, for ....

They had every trail guarded and we came to 15 men on our_path. They halted us and we charged them. Defrees dropped three of them and we got through. I had lost my pistol, too, so he did all the shooting. “We found a little cave about four miles away and stayed there until day- light. When it was good light we crawled to the top of a hill that looked down on the town and saw them looting the store and packing the stuff on their | horses. They were putting their dead on the horses, too. As soon as they were gone we went back to camp. I tied my leg up with a rag and along in the afternoon the trucks came in with our relief. Later I got to a doctor and had the wounds dressed. We did not have any kind of communication at that voint, so we had no way to call for help. “The Mexicans formed skirmish lines in good military manner and they seemed pretty well trained, but the way they yelled was horrible. It was a sort of a blood howl like a coyote. Tyree is reported missing, but I think he is dead up in the mountains. He was wounded in the foot and he would have trouble walking and there is no water at all in the hills. I thought there were about 150 of the bunch, but there may have been more.

BLAGK Story Told-by Hadley Reveals the Secret Behind Judge Lamm’s Mysterious Remark. HIS FRIENDS JOSHED HIM Swanger Then Let Color Fade and Candidate for Governor Again Has White Locks. Special to the Post-Dispatch. KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 6.—Every- body who heard the speech of former Supreme Judge Henry Lamm of Sedalia, Republican candidate for Governor, be- fore the Lamm Club here, April 20, has been wondering what he had in mind wher he referred to a candidate Who had his political hair dyed. The secret has been let out by a story told by former Gov. Hadley to one of his friends. Here it is: When John E. Swanger, now also of Sedalia, and candidate against Judge Lamm for Governor, retired as State Bank Commissioner three years ago, his hair was white as snow, although [ie was only 49 years old. Swanger went from Jefferson City St. Louis to become a traveling repre- sentative for the Mercantile Trust Co. Soon afterward he appeared in his of- fice at the trust company with his hair dyed jet black—so black, in fact, that ebony looked pale in comparison. Appearance Was Changed. The physical appearance of the for- mer Bank Commissioner was so com- pletely changed that the watchman of the bank refused to allow him to open mail addres to John E. Swanger un- til he could ‘prove his identity by the markings of his shirt and collar. Hadley and Swanger had been inti- mate during their eight years of offi- cial life at Jefferson City, but the for- mer Governor failed to recognize Swanger when they met soon after the transformation of the cvlor of Swang- er’s locks. Swager’s friends joked him, and he was frequently asked if he was advertising a new brand of sage tea. One dyeing was all that Swanger’s hair ever got. He decided to use no more artificial coloring matter and to Jet nature restore his hair to its former distinguished whiteness. But he had to pay the penalty for tampering with the laws of nature, because as’the black began to fade from his hair it turned first to a greenish hue, and then to a Streaked gray. Swanger’s hair has now lost all trace of its artificial coloring matter and is a perfect white. What Judge Lamm Said. Judge Lamm was discussing the liquor issue when he made the reference tv: political hair dyeing. He said the Republican party had, in its last two platforms, declared for local option. *‘Let us suppose,’’ he said, ‘“‘that when the platform of the Republican party is adopted next September it stands by its guns and again promulgates a plank in favor of local option—the fair, effi- cient and full enforcement of local op- tion laws and in favor of some sensi- ble form of home rule. Let us suppose that a candidate running on that plat- form and publicly advocating that doc- trine has had his political hair dyed and privately has pledged himself to repudiate the platform and seeks an election based on the theory, privately given, that if elected he will repudiate the platform. Are not the bonds that bind men together dissolved by the very statement of that proposition?’ The story of the transformation of Swanger’s snow-white locks to a raven- black probably will become one of the interesting features of the campaign. Swanger Blames Barker. Swanger, in his office at Sedalia to- day, laid the blame for the transforma- tion in the color of his hair upon his barber. ‘My barber was treating my scalp,” Swanger said, ‘and by mistake put on a preparation which turned my hair black at first, and then green. It caused me a*good deal of annoyance. Soon afterward I went to my old home in Milan, and the first person ] met was an old friend of the family. I shook hands with her and spoke to her, but her only response was: ‘Why, John, you've had your hair dyed!’ “T had a good deal of that sort of annoyance to contend with while my hair was getting back to its natural color, and I have not since allowed the barber to do any more experimenting with hair preparations.’’ Hadley, when asked about the hair dyeing story by a Post-Dispatch corre- denied all knowledge of it, but Swanger admittéd that he met Had- ley while his,hair was still black, and that the former Governor scarcely rec- ognized him.

May 9.—Sixty-two St. Louis business men, representing 52 wholesale houses, were given the glad hand by Lincoln business men here last night at a smoker held in honor of the visitors by the’ Lincoln Commercial Club. C. Quiggle, presided at the banquet. “Give us through train service to St. Louis,’’ was the message which Quiggle gave the St. Louis delegation and which was enthusiastically applauded. He pointed out the comparative disadvan- tage of trading in St. superior train service to Chicago. In addition to Quiggle, C. B. Towle and $S. A.

The older boy’s name was Wind, and he was 8° rough and brutal in his ways that no one Jiked him, while Fawn, the younger brother, was much loved by all. Now, Wind did not like this at all So he decided to play a trick and get rid of his brother in a sly way. With this idea he went into the woods and cut down a big tree, ffom which he hollowed a large canoe. One pretty spring day, when the canoe was finished. Wind got in and paddled it down to a reck which hung NCE upon a time there were | O two Indian boys, twin sons of great limb in his strong hands. Back and forth he swept and seemed to be delighted with the sport. So Fawn took hold and started to swing like his brother. But when Wind let go the branch it jerked up violently, throwing Fawn not in the hole but on the rock and bruising his leg. Wind knew that now Fawn would be unable to swim. “Get into my new canoe and take a row,” Wing told Fawn. “If your leg hurts it will get better while you paddle.” IND drew the canoe up close to W the shore, then ran back to aid Fawn to come down to the Graham Bread—Take - cup of sour milk, little salt, 1 teaspoon soda, 1 eg¢, 2 teaspoons sugar, 2 teaspoons melted batter, little flour and enough graham flour to make it thick enough to spread nicely in a medium baking pan.

Just over this stone was a tall tree in whose branches the two lads loved to play. Now, in this very tree lived a gentle wood sprite. She was peeping through the leaves when Wind pulled the boat close to the rock and she saw him when he took his tomahawk and cut in ii a big hole, over which he placed a thin sheet of bark so it would not show. water's edge. When Wind’s back was turned the sprite upset into the boat the bucket of tree gum, and with a branch of leaves rubbed it all over the inside, “Rest here awhile and I will get the boat nearer to you,” said Wind, as Fawn sat down for a moment on a stone. As Wind leaned over and took hold of the boat the sprite let go of a strong limb she had been holding. It jerked back and struck Wind, knock- ing him over sprawling into the ca- noe. He fell on his back, his head, legs and arms sticking outside. But his body remained fast in the glue. “Stay there forever,” said the sprite, appearing to the boys. “You are getting just what you deserve, I will pull you out on the land, and you shall crawl around for the rest of your days with the shell on your back.” Wind had begun to shfivel, and by the time he was dragged out on the bank he was just the size you see turtles today—and in this way his children have appeared ever since.

There was a gloomy day or two for the woodchopper. Then sunshine and happiness were his lot again, for Miss Wayne appeared, intent on another sketch. She had brought her lunch. He as well, his own.

Then one day the gossips were amazed to observe that the Dales were moving back into the old-house, and Heiena stared broadly as Vance, instead of attending his woodcraft duties, ap- peared at her home with a new édight- cylinder car. “Why,” she said, wonderingly, ‘“y . 7 work and the charming a Gabi mn A Story vd ween we are to build” — dee: SE 3 | | “All fiction!’’ cried Vance. “Father in- " r ” sai rel pra sisted on a test, and you’re the one who met it, you dear, darling, charitable, ritying’’— move to more humble quarters.” ‘ There was a dead silence. There was not a person in view who had not for scveral days past heard rumors of a great money loss for the supposediy wealthy owner of the splendid mansion that now harbored them. Could it be possible that there was a tangible foun- dation to these current rumors. The in- terested group soon knew, for Mr. Dale continued: “T will remove tomorrow into the more humble gardener’s house. You will all be welcome in our more modest quart- ers, “1ir* as you have been here.” Then, the bland, courteous host as ever, Mr. Dale motioned them in the direction of the drawing rooms. “Ruined!” “T heard he was speculating in war stocks!” ; : “Too bad for the expectations of that amiable son of his, Vance Dale!’ These and like remarks began to go the rounds of the guests. Many de- parted early. So:ne neglected even to acknowledge the compliment of their in- vitation. And whea they were all gone Mr. Dale walked over to his stalwart, handsome son and clasped his hand, as though there was some understood bar- gain between them, and winked and even chuckled with ludicrous solemnity. ***s d now, young man, to shoulder the stately forest ax and work for a living!” he said. The town was agog the next morning as Vance Dale, wearing a hickory shi:t and bearing an ax over his sturdy shoulder, started ‘‘to work.’ Mr. Dale owned a past -e lot, at one end cov- ered by a thick grove of trees.

The cold shoulder of the world was given to is There were three houses that Dale passed which were of peculiar inter- est to him. Since he had come back from college he had been attracted by three young ladies of the town. His father encouraged him in preparing the way to choose a wife. Eunice Wil- lard was the most graceful, or rather majestic, young lady in the place. She had seemed to him the idea] of wom- anhood. As he neared her home Vance saw her coming down the street. She noticed him, paused and quickly re- ‘turned to the house. “A cut—a snub!” rather bitterly so- liloquized Vance. “All right—father said she was a fair-weather friend.” Elis face grew brighter as he looked towards the home of Kitty Darling.

O* all the industries in which the German Government is directly in- terested, the amber works at Konigs- burg have been hit the hardest by the war, according to the Berliner Tage- blatt, which, while asserting that the situation improved “considerably” dur- ing 1915, remarks that at the end of the business year of 1914 the Government had to cover a deficit of $200,500, com- weather was delightful. “It couldn't be better if it had been made to order!’ Robert remarked while dressing. “I wish you'd change your mind, Jane.” ‘* No, thank you. home.’’. Robert was sorely tempted to stay at home with her. ‘Then the thought of how foolish it would be for him to lose a restful day in the woods because of her childishness hardened him, and he urged her no further, nor expressed a willingness to share her loneliness. She caught her breath nervously, however, as he kissed her goodby. His face was rather pale, and there wero deep lines about his eyes and mouth. She wondered vaguely why she had never noticed them before. With an effort she brought her thoughts and attention back to what Robert was saying. It was curiously enough just what she knew he would say, that he “would be home early” and for her “‘not to be too lonely,” yet now it had some way a strangely un- familiar sound; for all the time there was beating in the back of her brain the thought that today was her chance to put into execution the plan which T day of the picnic arrived.

To all inquiries he made answer that Jane had gone away for a long rest and change. That some day she would come back to him he wouldn't allow himself to doubt. He realized that his love for her was greater than ever he had thought. He missed her woefully, but he lived on in the old house sentineled by the giant trees, taking his meals in town, but coming out every night just as he always had done.

BERLIN, April 10.—Erich Lilienthal, writing in the Lokal Anzeiger on “Weltklatsch als Kampfmittel,” which is translated as ‘‘world gossip as an aid tc war,” tels:how Great Britain has tenefited by propagating gossip on 2 world-wide scale. He writes: “The strength of English foreign pol- itics lies in the successful] veiling of its motives. The hard, selfish will to power is never trumped resolutely on the table of the family of nations. It is present, though, and may be detected in a thousand acts, but, and that is the point, it has never been admitted pub- licly by an English statesman of rank. The examples of brutal exclamations and unveiled threats originate with British jingoes, but never with diplo- mats. “That which we formerly recognized in Germany as the iron logic of English rolitics, and which has often received our unmerited admiration, is, . when translated into German or continental- ism, nothing more than the fullest use of the advantage of its geographical i- cation. Every Briton, until 1914, rested securely in: the knowledge of the in- violability of his home and country; it had not been invaded by foreign foes for 1000 vears. From his secure van- taze point the English statesman at his leisure was able to determine effective and comfortable measures to ward off all opponents. The Briton developed calmness and repose.

He special. ‘ ized on distance running and was | easily the most consistent star | turned. out here. His record: ee, 190%6—Won the first M. A. C. mare { athon. ee 1906—Finished ninth in Olym . run at Athens (Greece) In a field 91 starters. 197—Fourth in M. A. C. marathon. 1908—Third in London Olympic; % starters. Second in M. A. C. race to 1909—Fourth in M. A. C. race. 1911—Second to Hatch in M. A. G race. 1912—Tenth in field of 8 starters at Stockholm Olympic games. 1912—Second to Erxleben in M. A, Cc. race. a — 3 - - . = 7, > «nal By a — we heard only about the money that would be lost and how, If we did fall down, the club was going to lay there until somebody picked it up. In other words, if the meet didn't club was going to quit. Ali the hates a quitter. efore that meet they should have talked only success. And after it was over whinin hep r= £ certainly out of place, especiaily ith view of the fact that the supposed loss of $1200 dwindled to a mere frac- tion of that amount. Recently at an M A, A., meet, I understand, a asked his father to see This competitor represented the M. A. A., and in fact is about the best ath- lete the club has today. Hig request was refused. Only recently there also was in the Athletic Departaae’ a set of rules, among them one that forbids an “athletic” member the use of the pool at about the only hour an hon- est man can get there to use ft. The idea seems: to be to con the athlete that he is a@ sort of e- rior being. At least that’s the way it struck the athletes. This all ms hand in hand with the sentiment t was voiced at some recent gathering the gist of which was “For T- selves” Any individuat much more any large institution that tolerates any such sentiment ts digging his or its own grave. Almost Necessary to Sacrifice Self- NUMBER of athletic members =| “Respect to Be an “Athletic Member” subterfuge to the wind in expressing a purchased bonds in the new M. A. {sentiment that in half whispers is at A., not. with the misguided idea that they were_an investment, but as a con- tribution boost an institution which they thought was to be the same as the old M. A, C., in spirit. Today it seems | that one of the conditions of becoming an athletic member is the sacrifice of your self-respect. About four nights ago an athlete who had come over a thousand miles to run in Saturday’s race, walked into the club and found there nobody who knew anything about the race. @ went toa hotel to live. Fine hospitality! Wonder- ful sportsmanship! Most of the visiting athletes stop at hotels this year. That's another strange coincidence in marked contrast to the spirit of the old M. A. C. The Roosevelt Reception. The @riter has seen athietics the world over and he qualifies himself a judge of such. He has seen athletes received and treated with respect and distinction by the greatest of leaders among men. I don’t think I shall ever forget the whole-souled enthusiasm and the magnificant spirit of democracy which was evidenced by ex-President Roosevelt when he entertained the American Olympic team of 1908 in his own home. The Roosevelt treatment was but an aftermath of similar treatment abroad and was the c!imax of a week of enter- tainment by the entire people of the city of New York that explained to me more than ever why New York is New York and as great as it is. In that particular year I found upon large in the M. A. A. I am shouting be- cause I am not dominated from any quarter. The admission is made in some q - ters, I might add, that certain co tees were appointed with the avowed hope of crippling the very feature the club is supposed to stand for. Ordi- nary hospitality toward visiting athietes is now neglected. The feeling is even abroad that a PROFESSIONAL ATH- LETE is the dominating, dictating in- fluence of the whole institution and many officers are virtually so by proxy. This leads me to express my feeliigs here in a way that they will do the most ° and rest assured I express the sentiment of many others who speak guardedly. . Is it any wonder that the M. A. A. has no worthy representation tn the ath- letic events? Is it any wonder the ent list in a classic marathon has drop from # to W or 12 and interest enthusiasm to nothing? .I arm. sounding a note of warning. Take care that the y, “WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH M. A. A.?” ts not superseded by the still more pertinent one, “WHY 18 THE M. A. A.?” The writer alone is responsible for this | article and writes it as an open letter to any who care to read, take what action the club may with regard to him.

If Simpson again make: the time of 144-5s) in the coming Missouri Valley meet or the Big Nine meet or at the National A. A. U. champic. hips next summer, they are sure the record will stand. ' Brewer will file an application imme- diately with Frederick ... Rubien, sec- retary of the A. A. U., and this will be passed on in the course of time by the Association Committee. The points that the committee = will consider will be Simpson's previous rec- ord, the capabilities of the starter, ref- eree, timers and finish judges at the Ames-Missouri meét Saturday, and the affidavits of a surveyor as *~ the track measurements and of the officials as to the weather conditions. Simpson made the previous record of iis. at the Missouri Valley Conference and the Western Conference meets last year, and at the Pennsylvania games this year.

$a eco OR OS ane GN A MATURA ~ SINE Councilman Hears Distributing Company Is Making Connec- tions for New Supply. WANT A LOWER RATE Mayor to Insist on Reduction Before Corporation Is Al- lowed to Pipe In Product. Mayor Mollman of East St. Louis said today that the St. Clair County Gas and Electric Co. will not be allowed to connect with the pipe line from the natural gas wells at Staunton, IIL, until the company consents to a satis- factory reduction in the gas. rates. Councilman 8. J. Fowler surprised the Council last night by announcing that the pipe line has reached Ed- wardsville, and is being laid toward East St. Louis, Fowler also made known that the local gas company recently had its charter changed to allow it ‘to distribute natural gas. Fowler produced statistics to show that natural gas can be sold in East, St. Louis at a maximum of 3% cents per 1000 cubic feet. East St. Louis now pays $1 per 1000 cubic feet for man- ufactured gaB: The pipe line is being laid by the Ca- hokia Gas and Oil Co., which was in- corporated by C. H. Quackenbush, presi- dent of the St. Clair County Gas dnd Hlectric Co.; Thomas Gillespie, the com- peny’s attorney, and Fred Stingoetter, a bookkeeper for the company. The Cahokia Gas and Oil Co. proposes to buy the gas from the producing com- pany at Staunton and sell it to the dis- tributing companies in the various towns. Control Is the Same. Gillespie today admitted to a Post- Dispatch reporter that the Cahokia Gas and Oil Co. really is controlled by the American Gas Co., which owns the St. Clair County Gas & Electric Co. It was pointed out that if the com- panies had succeeded in making the ceennection the burden would have been placed on the city of East St. Louis to get the rates lowered. The cost to the company of producing artificial gas is estimated at 25 cents per 1000 cubic feet. A Post-Dispatch reporter learned today that the Cahokia Gas and Oil Co. has contracted to buy natural gas from the Staunton fields at 54% cents per 1000 cubic feet. The introduction of natural gas into East St. Louis at a price of 35 cents, or less, would mean an industrial revolu- tion. Fowler said five manufacturing firms had told him they would buy an aggregate of 22,000,000 cubic feet per month if they could get it that cheap. vast St. Louis now uses about 25,000,000 cubic feet a month. Fowler said the Staunton fields contain 12 wells, which are producing 100,000,000 cubic feet a day, and that the’ field is being enlarged. Councilmen Back Demand. The Councilmen, several of whom have opposed Fowler’s agitation of the gas question, were unanimous last night in backing his demand that the company be prevented from bringing the gas into seo St. eeunad “until the rates are low- ere Mayor Molewan admitted today that the gas ig, a! had told him pre- viously that they intended to bring nat- ural gas to East St. Louis, but said he did not take the statement seriously. He does now, however, he said. . The situation is very similar to that which arose when a water franchise was to be lamp « two years ago. The city could have forced a reduction of rates by refusing to grant the franchise until it was made, but the measure was rushed through, and then the city had to complain to the Utility Commission. Mayor Mollman said he would visit Mayor Mudge of Edwardsville this week and collect some facts about the fight of that city for lower rates upon the introduction there of natural gas. The officers of the company will be invited, to appear before the Council next Mon- day and make a statement of their intentions regarding the natural eas proposition. Some of the Councilmen said last night these statements would have to be made on the floor of the Council, and not in the secret caucus.

TRADE IN STOCK MART Prices Show Mixed Changes on Mexican Outlook and Peace Talk. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, May 9.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view today, says: “Uncertainty, in an aggravated form, dominated the stock market . today, and deprived the aimless fluc- tuation of prices, in most of the transactions, of the significance they might have had as an index of the sentiment of the financial munity. “The uncertainty was based upon lack of facts and not upon confusion of opinion. Fragmentary and con- flicting reports arrived at intervals throughout the mornin as to the Sinking of the steamshi Cymric, leaving the market in prem # whether warning had been given as pledged in Germany’s latest communication on the subject of submarine warfare. Nor was there more definite infor- mation on the status of the vessel— whether she was privately operated or was under the control or in the service of the British Admiralty. “On this point the report of the American Consul at Queenstown, and a statement by the receiver of the International ercantile Marine Co. in- this city were in direct opposi- tion. The fact that prices on the Stock Exchange did not break more Severely seemed to indicate Wall street’s belief that Germany’s recent Ean had not in this instance een deliberately broken. The Mexican Situation. “The other piece of disturbing news— for it is seldom in these days that the market has to dea] with only one source of. misgiving at a time—had to do with Mexico. The calling out of the militia of three states to guard the border gave form and substance to the doubts and fears that have been entertained regard- ing our relations with that country. “It is true that the call upon the State troops had no direct bearing upon our relations with the Carranza Government, but it visualized to the financial mar- kets all their misgivings previously held. Had the fresh outburst of lawlessness that o ey ig the calling of the Amer- ican ilitia resulted, as might have been hoped, in a quick agreement with the de facto Government on the status of the troops in Mexico, the incident would not have been devoid of hopeful aspects, in that particular at least, but, instead, it became the basis of fresh uncertainty and misgiving. “‘Under the impulse of these various forces—which, curiously enough, were accentuated in the market rumors by a continuance of yesterday’s ‘peace talk’ —prices on the Exchange duplicated, in large part, the movements of the pre- ceding day. “The railway shares assumed the lead- ership, in point of definite tendency, and again advanced, though the gains were not evenly distributed and were not, on the whole, as substantial as those of yesterday. Among the industrial shares the day’s irregularity was most pro- neunced, with the tendency of the spec- ulative shares toward a lower level. Spasmodic rallies and declines followed each other during most of the day, with intervening periods of comparative dull- ness. Exports Are Smaller. ““A decrease of $18,300,000 in exports of breadstuffs for March, compared with March, 1915, was reported by the De- partment of Commerce, accompanied by a falling off of more than $11,400,000 in meat and dairy products. The total of the several groups of agricultural ex- ports in March was $112,252,910, compared with $125,039,062 in February and $158,543, - 872 a year earlier. The March figures illustrate the tendency of the last nine months, except in the case of meat and dairy products. “With the present shortage of ships and the abnormal demands for other commodities from this country, it is hardly surprising to find a falling off in shipments of farm products, compared ytih the tremendous shipments of last year, before exports of manufactured material got into full swing. “Quotations for Scandinavian exchange threaten to become almost meaningless, unless the market is somehow placed on a broader basis than at present ex- ists. Today’s quotations varied consid- erably, ranging up to as high as 30.85 for the Stockholm check. ‘Transactions continue ona narrow basis, with prices nearly nominal. In a market where an adverse movement can- not be rectified by remittances of gold, quotations eventually come to have little significance. “Sterling was slightly lower, under the pressure of heavy offering of com- modity bills, but this was offset, in part, by good buying of cables by houses identified with British and French financing in this country. “Italian and French exchange a'so showed a slightly easier tendency.” DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S TRADING IN WALL STREET NEW YORK, May 9.—Rails were the only stocks to manifest “ye resistance to ne eral proses on the 8 Exchange today. Union Pacific made fos extreme rise of 2% poin nts rsistent reports of a forthcomi 1s ae d vidend, and New York Central's rength p ed from similar cases. Greet ble Steel and Baidwin Locomotive were most susceptible to bear attacks, but oe geeaged a a whole yielded pow Motors added t toning’ s ns, ether with United “Btates Rubber, but Phen ons soon occurred in that group. Mexicans made further recessions on news that the militia of border states had been called out to patrol the frontier. At noon price changes showel greater uncer- tainty. Bonds were lower. Almost the only relief from the dullness of the mid-season was furnished by shipping shares and south Porto Rico sugar, these re- cording substantial advances Elsewhere prices were further inclined te yield ea- eg reer ~ RECORDED. . ee Missouri; girl. lenard girl. mae Ze “Rae nd E.

The late market was irregular on realizing sales. The close was slightly above yesterday’s final fig- ures. Perfect. weather for planting sent corn futures off fractionally shortly after the market opened, but the loss was regained when wheat rallied. Cables were unchanged to 1d higher. Oats were quiet. oarse grains closed irreg- ular to a fraction down. The Liverpool cable said: The wheat market was firm today, with a better general demand, influenced by the American Government report. Spot market firm, unchanged to 2d higher; cargo market firm; Manitoba 3d higher and winters 6d dearer, paid. There is an improved demand for Plates. There is general improvement in demand, with purchases at the advance, with few shipping offers. Arrivals are liperal, but distant offers are more firmly held. Australia and India are offering spar- ingly, with prices high. The corn mar- ket was firm, with an improved demand for spot and ‘dearer export offers. Spot market 1d higher, cargoes and parcels 3d to 6d dearer, paid. Plate offers are fair. The United Kingdom visible of wheat increased for the week 2,240,000 bu, and is 90,912,000 bu. 3 July wheat opened %c up at $1.12%, sold at $1.11%, then rallied to $1.12%@%.

It Is expected that shipments of small lots will commence increase as tonnage becomes avail- able. Tonnage is still very scarce. ‘United a i re gg Sp of foreign wheat are becoming abundant. Liver- pool last week received 1,488,000 bu, following 1,440,000 bu the previous week and for the whole of the United King- dom arrivals are coming at the rate of 5,500,000 bu weekly, flour included. Large floating quantities and large amounts still to be shipped insure continued free arrivals. : ‘‘Russia—Weather has turned warmer, which is favorable for all crops.
