Afrg)d He Is “Skinned.” “I've found out that the Biairs haven't got any property in Waco, Tex., where l knew them years ago, and where A. L. Blair, the futher, haG a reputation ef being a wealthy real estater,” Dyne continued. ‘“The Blairs, I’m afraid, have skinned me. I am the ‘goat.’ I’m not hollering, and I’m not worry- ing. I’ve gol a zinc mine, the Sambo, at Lincolnville, Ok., in the Joplin district, that will make mez $400,000. And I’'il pay back the $76,000, if they’ll just give inc time.”’ “What kind of men were the Blairs?’ the reporter asked. “The old man was a shrewd, nice and clean-cut man, a man who made money and turned it over quickly,’’ Van Dyne answered, unhesitatingly. soung man himself couldn't have got t> first base with me. “That's why I mailed back a note for $76,000 which the young man mailed t» me from San Francisco with a let- ter saying that things had not gone as they hoped with him and his father, and that they had not been able to put $7¢,000 in the First National Bank there to meet the seven checks, for that to- tal, which I had made out to the Mis- sourt Pacific, and which I had signed with the firm name of the American Disinfecting Co., of which I am vice president. “The young man's note wasn't worth four bits (0 cents). It was just like my own boy had signed !t. I wrote him to get his father's signature on it. “T haven't heard from the Blairs since,"’ Van Dyne, whei questioned, said that he had reacned the Blairs at “genera! Selivery”’ in San Francisco. He said the. ‘etter from young Blair was just signed “Ben” and was written on plain sta- tionery. This letter, he said, he had given to the Missouri Pacific.

Van Dyne exhibited a statement signed on May 2 by his former assistant, Edward J. English of 1485 Blackstone avenue, in which English states that Van Dyne had no knowledge of the 33500 discrepancies which auditors found to exist in English’s accounts.

HEARST RANCHMEN SAID 10 HAVE KILLED FIFTEEN BANDITS Mexicans Attack Own Countrymen Who Begen Guerilla Warfare; Horses, Guns and Loot Recevcred: FIELD HEADQUARTERS, NEAR NAMIQUIPA, May 19, via wireless to Columbus, N, M.—Twenty-five Mex- ican cowboys from the Hearst ranch at Babricora broke and scattered a newly formed gang of bandits near Madera, about a week ago, killing 15, wounding one and capturing six, according to news reaching here to- day. Thirty horses, some rifles and considerable loot were recovered. The bandits had been organized by Atezutro Dominguez and Pedro Cas- tillo, who announced their enmity for Americans and adherents of Carranza. Following theft of a number of horses from the Hearst ranch they begun a guerilla warfare. Employes of the ranch surprised the bandits in camp near the ranch Viejo. The six taken prisoners were delivered to Carranza authorities in Madera. Among the dead were Do- minguez and Castillo, the toll bring- ing the number of Villa followers slain since the American punitive ex- pedition was sent across the border about nine weeks ago up to nearly 250.

A VISIT TO KARL LIEBKNECHT—How the great Socialist, \{ page of portraits of fashion- ’ lives, how he looks what he is in Germany,’ er legally married to him and is there- fore not his widow, but is in reality Miss Helen A. Christman, an orpnan who was being cared for by Schoen- lau’s second wife, who was a widow when he married her. It is said by Government agents that Schoenlau’s first wife never was divorced and is still living. Mrs. Schoenlau’s claim that she is the lawfully wedded widow of Schoen- lau is supported by 15 affidavits. Some ot these offidavits have been repu- diated by the affiants. Wife Sued for Divorce. Schoenlau was a member of Com- pany G, First Illinois Light Artillery. Before the war he conducted Schoen- lau'’s Grove, a picnic ground and gar- den, at Gravois avenue and Bates street, and had married Miss Annie Brier. In 1862 his wife filed suit for divorce, alleging that Schoenlau paid attentions to Mrs. Louise Biedenstein, u widow, who lived on property ad- joining his. This suit was withdrawn in 1865. Short- ly thereafter Schoenlau married Mrs. Biedenstein, with whom the orphan girl, Helen Christman, was living. In 1873 this Mrs. Schoenlau died, and Helen Christman continued to live at Schoen- lau's home as his housekeeper. In 1876, the "Government agents allege, Schoen- lau began to introduce Helen Christman as his wife, and thereafter they were known us husband and wife. Schoenlau died in 1907. The first Mrs. Schoenlau, Who had withdrawn her di- vorce suit, but who later had married again, sue. for a dower interest in Schoenlau’s estate, on the ground that she was his legcl widow. Mrs. Helena Schoenlau about this time decided to apply for a pension. Gus Schoenlau, her son, related the inception of the plan to the Government agents as fol- lows: Affidavits Obtained. He had a paper route, and talked with Mrs. Miller, one of his customers, about the suit of the first Mrs. Schoen- lau. Mrs. Miller suggested that the proof would be firmly established if Mrs. Schoenlau applied for a pension and pre- sented affidavits of her marriage. So the 15 affidavits were presented. One of the affiants, Mrs. Emma Ber- tram of 3912 Bates street, formerly a maid in the Schoenlau home, who swore she witnessed the marriage ceremony of the couple, later wrote the Government that she had sworn falsely and that her conscience was husting her. Arthur Dreifuss, a lawyer, now dead, made an affidavit that prior to filing hef pen- sion claim Mrs. Helena Schoenlau con- sulted him and told him she had never been legally married to Schoenlau. He said he then advised her she had no claim to a pension and refused to file the claim for her. Mrs. Anne Schoenlau Budke, Schoen- lau’s first wife, and the one who withdrew the divorce suit, made a deposition in which she said: “I am at law the widow of Theador Schoen- lau, but I don’t want to be because of my children by later marriages.” The 16 persons who made affidavits ‘hat Mrs. Helena Schoenlau, or Miss 'felen Christman, as the Government nsists upon calling her, had been legally married ot Schoeniau, will be 1 sed by the Government as witnesses. Mrs. Schoenlau was released on bend. | TALKS 30 MINUTES CHICAGO, May 19.—Presidential cam- paign managers will have only 30 min- utes each to introduce, extol, nominate and second the nomination of their candidates at the Republican national convention here next month, if a plan considered by J.

It is expected that at least 16 names will be presented to the convention and the campaign managers feel it wil be necessary to limit the drove him from hic home and told him to take his clothes and get out. “Married Him for Money.’ Nolker alleges that his wife, ever since their marriage, has treated him with coolness, indifference and con tempt and has continuously = a7‘1- dressed him and referred to him as “toob’’ and “Dutch boob” and has re- peatedly told him that she married hirr: only for his money, that she did rot love him and would be glad to be rid of him. Immediately following the marriayve the petition, which was filed by the law firm of Frumberg & Russell, al- leges the Nolkers went to Europe, and. while in Berlin, Mrs. Nolker made it known to Nolker that she did not want children and repeatedly told him that she married only as a means of fitting herself for the stage. Nolker alleges that when they re- turned to St. Louis from their wed- ding journey, about June, 1912, he es- tablished a home at the St. Regis Apartments, but his wife in a short time insisted on returning to Europe, against his wishes, for the purpose of studying vocal music, and, still against his wishes, she departed for Paris May 16, 1913, and remained there until Sept, 3, 1914. Nolker asserts in his petition that she told him that unless he would permit her to go to Paris she would leave him and obtain a divorce. Followed Her to Paris. While in Paris, the petition alleges, Mrs. Nolker associated with persons of questionable character and frequented disreputable cafes and resorts. Nolker alleges that on Dec. 2, 1913, he went to Paris to induce his wife to re- turn to their St. Louis home, and, when he insisted on this. she flew into a vio- lent rage, cursed him, swore at him and abused him and told him that she did not care for him, that he could do as he pleased, that she intended to go on the stage, as she was a great actress and singer and that she did not propose to reside in “the Dutch town of St. Louis” with Nolker. Mrs. Nolker, according to the peti- tion, repeatedly asserted that she was superior to the citizens of the City of St. Louis and that a person of her in- tellectual and musical attainments had no place in a provincial city like this, and she would no longer live here. ; Nolker alleges ‘that, because of the European war, Mrs. Nolker suddenly left Paris in September, 1914 and, after landing at New York, unexpect- cdly arrived at their St. Louls home and remained there with Nolker about two months, at the end of which time she again insisted on leaving St. Louis, saying she would not live here, as it was no place for her. Against his wishes, he alleges, she went to New York and set up house- keeping in an apartment, refusing to return to St. Louis In response to his repeated requests. Questions Her Associations. While she lived in New York, the pe- tition alleges, Mrs. Nolker visited the apartments of various men unknown to Nolker and frequented cafes, restau- rants and questionable resorts with these men. Nolker also asserts that his wife gave dances in her New York apartmen: and invited men of disrepu- table character as her guests. In New York, the petition alleges, Mrs. Nolker became ac“uainted with “one Ciccolini,’’ a vaudeville singer, who was constantly at her apartment, and whom she addressed as ‘“‘Dear Chicci,”’ ‘Baby’ and other endearing terms. Nolker alleg-cs that, on account of an affair in. which she became involved in New York, Mrs. Nolker returned to their St. Louls home on July 5 or 6, 1915. The petition gives Nolker'’s version of the separation. after which he went to live at the home .of his sister, Miss “ROBT. NOLKER-. PUTO SY CERHARD SISTERS. ERMANY NOT TO REPLY TO LATEST AMERICAN. NOTE Berlin Considers Submarine Issue With U. S. to Have Been Closed. WASHINGTON, May 19.—Germany. considering the submarine controversy with the United States closed, has deter- mined to make no response to the last American note upon the subject. In- formation to this effect is contained iu confidential advices received here from Berlin. The American note declared that the United States would rely upon a scrupu- lous execution henceforth of the now altered policy of the Imperial Govern- ment, such as would remove the prin- cipal danger to an interruption of the good relations existing between the United States and Germany and that “the United States feels it necessary (to state that it takes it for granted thet the Imperial German Government does not intend to imply that the maintenance of its newly annvuunced policy is any way contingent upon the courge or re- sult of diplomatic negotiations between the Government of the United States any any other ! elligerent Government.” It was indicated at the State Depart- ment when the note was sent that the United States did not feel a reply was necessary and that should one not be forthcoming this Government would con- sider Germany had acquiesced. With the apparent end vf the sub- marine crisis and Germany's admonition to her citizens in the United States to obey local laws, German officials fee: that the only remaining cause of fric- tion is the case or Wolfe von Igel,. for- mer secretary to the recalled German military attache, arrested in New York in connection with a plot to blow up the Welland Canal.

These reports were ‘nvented to diminish the impression all made by the Italian retreat. The loss of the enemy can be estimated only by those who hold the battlefields. The Italians are notin that position. The Austro-Hungarians, while appreciating at its full value the sacrifice of every brave soldier, are able to declare that the Austro-Hungarian losses have been exceedingly small, thanks to the ability of the Infantry, the powerful protection given by the artillery and the experience in war of the commanders.” 4 GERMANS RENEW VERDUN ATTACKS Paris Admits Invaders Gained a Footing in Trench East — of Avocourt.

The project was submitted tu: the league yesterday by Albert Bond Lambert. It is proposed, according to officials of the league who are acting with Sec- retary Saunders, to enlist the co-opera- tion of not only influential organiza- tions of St. Louis, but those throughout the country which can contribute to Plans for this are the end sought. being formulated. : The demand by trainmen, which the railways contend would entail an in- crease in wages aggregating $100,000,000 and severely cripple the transportation business, fs for shorter hours.

He is trying to find a buyer for his mine, or to form a stock company to take it over. He thinks the mine will soon be turning out $10,000 a month, and that he cculd pay $4000 or $5000 a month on his note in installments. “The banks have more money. than trey know what to do with,” he add- ed “They’re glad to get a note like mine, with 6 per cent interest.

He stated that he could not have been held responsible for the moneys he gave to the Blairs, as “it was the custom” to cash checks, although there is a company rule against it. “But I volunteered to make it good to the tank, and I will do it,” he added. Van Dyne is congratulating himself on his “lucky strike’’ in the Joplin dis- trict, saying he was one of the “green- horns” attracted there last summer when the war made the price of zinc ore soar above $100 a ton. He says he paid $8000 for the mining leasehold, and since had expended about $12,000 more on its development, all being his own money, made in investments. His salary was $1800 a year, and he had worked for the Missouri Pacific 11 years. He is 43 years old, married and has a son about 10 years old. Ben Blair, formerly of Sedalia, Mo., and son of E. Kh.

EMBASSY TAKES ACTION Requests Time for Inquiry if Death Penalty Has Been Pronounced. LONDON, May 19.—No information has yet been received by the American embassy here regarding the nature of the sentence imposed by the court- maritial in Ireland on Jeremiah C. Lynch of New York, who was convicted on the charge of complicity in the re- cent Irigh rebellion. This is due to the fact that the sentence has not been con- firmed by the higher military authori- ties. The embassy today made a request upon the Government that if a death sentence had been passed, to defer exe- cution until an investigation of the case could be made. The news that Lynch had been con- victed wi received by the embassy from the American Consul in Dublin. Previous to this the last news the em- bassy had of Lynch was that under the defense of the realm act he was pro- hibited from leaving the five-mile zone of Dublin. He had been making trips to Western Ireland. Lynch was a resi- dent of Dublin for some time. President Directed Ambassador ; Make Thorough Inquiry. WASHINGTON, May 19.—A report on the trial of Jeremiah C. Lynch from the American Consul at Dublin, dated yes- terday, was received at the State De- partment today from Ambassador Page at London. It said Lynch was tried yesterday by a field courtmartial. An apparent omission in the coded message made its interpretation uncer- tain to State Department officials. It was suggested, however, that Lynch was to have been either sentenced or executed at daybreak today. Secretary Lansing’s message asking for action in Lynch’s behalf apparently had not been received by Ambassador Page when he ferwarded his report. Comparatively few of those convict- ed of complicity in the Irish revolution have been sentenced to death, a ma- jority of them having received prison sentences. President Wilson, acting at the re- quest of Senator O’Gorman of New York, sent a message last night through the State Department to Ambassador Page at London, directing him to make every possible effort to obtain a delay in the execution of sentence on Lynch. Senator O’Gorman, acting upon the entreaties of friends of the supposed Irish sympathizer in New York, went to the White House to appeal to the Pres- ident to intercede for Lynch and found the President was at the theater with Mrs. Wilgon. The Senator found the President's sec- retary, J. P. Tumulty, and laid the case before him. Summoning a White House automobile Tumulty theater and talked with the President. After learning the facts the President directed Tumulty to get in touch im- mediately with Acting Secretary of State Frank L. Polk and inform him of the President’s wish that he cable to the British Foreign Office with all possible dispatch, asking that Lynch be not ex- ecuted until the United States could make inquiries as to the evidence against him and an opportunity afforded for relatives here to present new facts. to New York Friends Unable to Get De- talls of Lynch’s Case. NEW YORK, May 19.—The fate of Jeremiah C, Lynch, an American citi- zen who was convicted by courtmartial of participation in the Irish revolt, is believed to have been screened by strict censorship. had come over the cables this forenoon. Lynch is a naturalized American citi- zen, it is sajd by his friends in New York. Up to four years ago, when he returned to Ireland to engage in the in- surance business in the City of Cork, he was prominent in Irish circles here as president of the Philo-Celtic Society and a member of the State Celtic League. Two years ago he returned to New York and spent six months here as rep- resentative of the Gaelic League from Ireland, and has since been in Ireland as representative of the Gaelic League from the United States. He is about 40 years old. STAMP EXPORTATIONS STOPPED RECAUSE OF SECRET CODES Italy and Germany Find That Mili- tary and Naval Secreta Were Betrayed by Their Use. NEW YORK, May 19.— The Italian Government has forbidden the exporta- tion and the German Government the importation of used and unused post stamps, according to information re- ceived from Switzerland by Hugh Clark, New York philelatist. The letter to Clark carried the inti- mation that two secret codes, built on the use of postage stamps sent through letters, have been discovered by the Italian and German authorities and this was responsible for the decisions of the governments.

LONDON, May 19.—An important ar- rest was made last night in connection with the attempted landing of arms on the southwest coast of Ireland on Good Friday, says a dispatch received by the Central News today from Tralee. LONDON, May 19.—Augzistine Birrell, who resigned as Chief Secretary for Ire- land after the Sinn Fein revolt, ap- peared today as a witness before the Royal Commission, which is conducting an inquiry into the Irish rebellion. The presence of the Chief Secretary aroused keen interest, in view of the dramatic testimony given by Sir Mathew Nathan. former Under Secretary for Ireland, it yesterday’s hearing. Sir Mathew testified that the Govern- ment had advance informatior. regard- ing the German plans for aiding the Irish rebels and Birrell was expected ‘o give more details on this point. At the outset of the hearing Birrell stated that he had read Sir Mathew’s Statement and that he did not know that there were any additions or modi- fications he wished to make. He then read a statement which he had pre- pared and which he described as deal- a general manner with Sinn Fein- ing ism fPeace Kept by Home Rule Bill. Birrell continued: “If the home rule bill had not been placed on the statue books there would have been a great explosion of rage and disappointment, both in Ireland and in the United State~ which, when war came, would have assumed alarming proportions. The events in Ulster and the gun- running at Larne by the Ulsterites in 1514 undoubtedly had a great effect on Cisloyalists elsewhere.’’ lreland had preserved an unbroken front at the outbreak of the war through the patriotism of John Red- mond, Birrell continved. but there were many who did not agree with his at- titude. It was impossible to over- estimate the effect which the advent uf the Ulster leader, Sir Edward Car- son, in the Cabinet had exercised upon the minds of the people of Ireland. If Redmond had accepted office in the same Cabinet he would not have re- mained leader of the Irish party. When it was seen that the war would be prolonged, Birrell said, Ireland soon developed—not wholly unreasonable ex- pectations—of a German landing and of partial risings in different parts of Ire- land; and promises of German assist- ance were at the bottom of the out- break. Answering Baron Hardinge, Bir- rell said: —Sinn Feinism had spread all over the place. The Sinn Feiners were sick of riamentary parties and they desired to be left alone. I realized for two years certainly that there was a dan- gerous movement in Ireland, but after consultation with the various Irish ‘All Civic Organizations Will Be Invited to Take Part in Big Preparedness Demon- stration on June 3. —EE Detailed plans for the preparedness parade in St. Louis, June 3, will be worked out and presented Tuesday evening at a smoker <t the St. Louis Ciub, to which revresentatives of all organized bodies in St. Louis will be invited. The decision to parade June 3, the dute the Chicago preparedness parade will be held, was reached at a meet- ing. at the City Club of the Executive Committee of the St. Louis Branch, Na- tional Security League. The general plan as outlined by the leaders of the. movement is that every organization in the city shall be repre- sented in the parade, and each business house asked to have a group ‘of em- ployes in the parade. At the meeting yesterday John B. Denvir Jr., Capt. F. M. Rumbold and Col. A. B. Donnelly were selected as members of a committee which will de- termine the form of the parade. Labor Men Invited. The union labor organizations of the city will be invited to participate. They will be represented at the smoker Tues- day night by Owen Miller and Eugene Sarber. It is expected that the union labor participation in the parade will be handled by them. Co-operation of the women’s organi- zations will be looked after by Mrs. Frank V. Hammer, chairman of the —_— St. Louis branch, women’s section, Na- tional Movement for Preparedness. Ed- ward K. Love is chairman of. the com- mittee which will have supervision of the general plan. Mayor Kiel yesterday accepted an in- vitation from the Security League to join with the Mayors of the 2% larger cities in an open cormnmunication to the executives of all cities and towns in the United States inviting them to join in holding preparedness parades June 3. W. M. Brandt, secretary of the So- cialist party in St. Louis, sent a letter to Mayor Kiel, in which he said tha? the Socialist party would organize an anti-military demonstration to counter- act the influences of the preparedness parade. The letter ia the outcome of resolu- tions offered at a meeting of the dele- gates of the several city wards of the Socialist party, which was held at their headquarters, 940 Chouteau avenue, last Monday. Plans Not Formed No detailed plans have yet been formed for the demonstration other than it will be either a parade starting at the city hall and continuing through the principal streets or will be a meeting where speakers will advocate an anti- military program. The demonstration of the anti-military program of the Socialist party will be held simulta- neously with the preparedness parade. policy of non-intervention was the safest. The armed bodies of volun- teers were all over the place and if we could have got disarmament all around it would have been an infinite blessing, but to disarm any one section of the population on the evidence we had would have been a dangerous and doubtful proposition.”’ : Continuing, Birrell said he had daily , reports from the Royal Irish constab- ulary and thege reports were of such a character that one could form a gen- eral estimate of the state of feeling in the countryside and that he was not influenced very much by the advice given by Irish leaders, Asked for More Troops. ‘The state of feeling varied,’ alr. Bir- rell added. “If a priest was an anti- Sinn Feiner, Sinn Feinism died out, but if the priest was in favor of it, the movement was promoted. But in Dub- lin it was different. I always felt that I was very ignorant of what was going on in the cellars of Dublin and I was exceedingly nervous about that. I had heard that the castle was to be taken. I had very decided views. So much so that I had conferences with Generals Kitchener and French on March 20 and March 27 to persuade them to send more troops to Dublin. I knew the people of Dublin shotuild have evidence that England still had soldiers, and if sol- diers with bayonets and bands could be got to parade the streets of Dublin it would have had a great effect on the Sinn Feiners. The revolutionaries would have known there was a force in Dub- lin with which they would have to con- tend. The War Office replied that they were very busy training men and that the men could not be spared to be transferred to Ireland.” Sir Montague Sherman: “If the mili- tary authorities had acted upon your advice the results might not have hap- pened ?’’ Mr. Birrell: leaders I came to the conclusion that a SS es ea SPECIAL SALE OF CIGARS FROM SAN FELICE FACTORY TINOF 25 Note that these Cigars are packed in tin boxes.

Y., May 19.-- The Resolutions Committee of the Leke Mohonk Conference on Interna- ticnal Arbitration showed its appre- ciation of the unsettled conditon of international affairs by presenting 4 platform which avoided any radical recomendations and confined itself to carefully worded approval of the gen- era) principle of arbitration. The platform proved a disapoint- ment to members of the League to Enforce Peace, headed by former President Taft, presiding officer of the conference. But it also offered no encouragement to the opponents of enforced peace, led by William J. Bryan. The platform follows: “The world conditions of the past two years have confirmed the belief, often expressed in these conferences, that arbitral and judicial methods, showed and must Increasingly prevail in settling international disputes. “During the twentieth century the permanent court at The Hague has acted upon cases involving questions relating to Europe, Asia, Africa, the islands of the Pacific and the three Americas. These questions involved financial and territorial claims and such fundamental matters as the right to fly the national flag and to eexrcise purisdiction over national military sources. These facts are clear testimony to the development of arbitration. “The tendency of this court at The Hague to become in reality perma- nent is evident from the fact that there are eight judges who have sat in three or more of the fifteen cases and one judge has sat in seven of the fifteen cases, “The fonference desires again to affirm its belief in the desirability of such legislation by Congress as will confer upon the courts of the United States jurisdiction over all cases aris- ing under treaty provimeng « or affect- ing the rights of aliens.’ 000 Canadian Troops at Front. g AWA, Canada, May 19.—It is of- f-cially announced that nearly 170,000 Canadian troops have gone overseas and more than 140,00 are undergo- ing training in Canada.

Nolker, in the petition, asserts that on Sept. 1, 1912, Mrs. Nolker insisted upon her sister, Mrs. Mabel Teasdale, living with them at their home, and in- sisted that Mrs. Teasdale’s furniture be kept at their home to save stor- uge charges for Mrs. Teasdale. He alleges he was forced to maintain and support Mrs. Teasdale from Sept.. 1, 1912, up to the time of the separation and that his wife took Mrs. Teasdale to Europe with her, compelling him to pay her expenses. When he objected, he alleges, Mrs. Nolker said she was going to have her sister with her whether he liked it or not and regard- less of consequences. Says Other Men Wrote to Her. Nolker asserts that after his wife’s return from Europe in 1914 she received letters from strange men and that she refused to tell him the names of these men or give him any information about them. When Mrs. Nolker returned from Eu- rope, the petition alleges, she insisted that Nolker sell his interest in his busi- ness here and leave St. Louis, saying she would not live here and it was not a fit place for a civilized person to live, and they could live in some other city as cheaply as in St. Louis. Nolker, he asserts, told intended to remain in St. Louis, the place of his birth, and she then flew into a rage, cursed him, swore at him, struck him with a chair and told him that unless he would remove from §8t. Louis she would leave him. Mrs. Nolker, according to the peti- tion, frequently told her husband she could earn large sums of money in the operatic and theatrical profession and that she intended to leave him and engae in these professions, as her ambitions were of a higher standard than living with and associating with a “common Dutchman.” The Nolker divorce suit follows close- ly upon the announcement of the en- gagement of Mrs. NolkKer’s sister, May- belle Hyman Teasdale, to Alfred Valere I'ynn of London, who has lived here six months.

DEFENSE SAID T0 RLY ON LETTER NN ORPET CASE Written to Student by Girl a Few Days Before Her Death— One Juror Chosen. WAUKEGAN, Ill. May 19.—Ventire after venire of prospective jurors has been exhausted in. the trial of Will H. Orpet, young collegian, charged with the murder of Marian Lambert, his schoolgirl! sweetheart, and today the court baiiiffs in their search for possi- ble jurymen sald that if the jury was not soon completed they would have to invade the estates of wealthy residents. When the examination of a new venire of 100 men was begun today, Judge ©. H. Donnelly repeated his caution to the venireméen that they answer truthfully the questions asked and warned them not to seek to escape from jury service by expressing a trivial opinion. Tho Court also announted that the literacy test, the stumblin~ block which has sent many veniremen from the box, would be less vigorously e1:forced. A letter said to have been written by Miss Lambert to Orpet u few days be- fore her death last February may te the point of evidence upon which the de fense of the stucent will hinge. James H. Wilkerson, ‘)rpet’s chief counsel, said the letter drew Orpet from Madi- son, Wis., to Lake Forest, Ill, on the day before the #itl’s death, for in it sha had threatened tc kill herself. The: defense centends that in answer to this letter Orpet wrote a note, said to be in possession of the prosecution, which read: “Don't do anything des- perate until I arvrive.’’ The defense wil! attempt to show tl? the poison was tdken in crystal form and that flakes vu’ cyanide of potassium were found: under the girl’s finger nails, as opposed to the contention of the State that Orpet brought the poison to the girl in solution. Significance is attached by the defense to the fact that the girl’s right hand was ungloved when the body was found. BAN IS SENTENCED TO TWO YEARS FOR ARSON AND PAROLED Harry Houston Aided State in Ob- taining Prior Conviction in Hippodrome Hotel Case. Harry Houston, 35 years old, an electrician, living at 1401 Market street, pleaded guilty in Judge Fish- er’s court this morning to two indict- ments for attempting arson. On the recommendation of Circuit Attorney Harvey, he was given one year in the wcrkhouse on each of the charges and was paroled. Harvey told the Court that Houston had given the State inforamtion on which it became an easier task to convict Harry Sladek, who went to the penitentiary Tuesday to serve a term of three years for arson. The conviction of Sladek and Hous- ton’s plea of guilty weer in connec- tion with the attempt tv burn the Hippodrome Hotel at Sixth and Wal- nu streets, April 28, 1915, and also of setting fire tc Sladek’s automobile on March 16, preceding, for the pur- pose of collecting insurance of $1500 on the machine.

CHICAGO, May 19.—Preparation of the Republican platform will be submitted to the national conven- tion for adoption in Chicago next month, has been begun, according to word brought here by Fred W. Up- ham, chairman of the local commit- tee on arrangements for the conven- tion, who returned today from New York after a conference with Chair- man C. D. Hilles and other members of the Republican National Commit- tee. Strong planks favoring American- ism, military preparedness and a pro- tective tariff for the protection of American industries, it !s said, will be among the important subjects con- sidered by those drafting the platform. The plank on Americanism and mili- tary preparedness, will, it is declared, be sufficiently strong to meet every reasonable demand of Progressive Republicans. It is said that prominent Progress- ives who have recently returned to the Republican party will be consult- ed before the finishing touches are put on these sections of the platform. Talked With Old Guard. “I talked with nearly all the ‘Old Guard’ leaders in the East and left New York convinced that Elihu Root is the most favored candidate for President in the Atlantic States,” said Upham. “He will have a major- ity of the delegates from New York end the other Eastern States on the early ballots, but the leaders have not decided whether they will be able to nominate him. If Root is not nominated I think a Western man will be chosen.” The Eastern leaders are seriously considering Senator L. Y. Sherman of Illinois, “One of the most prominent mem- bers of the ‘Old Guard’ told me that he felt certain that Roosevelt would not receive more than 80 votes on the first ballot in the convention. Most of the talk for Hughes is from men in the East who are not delegates to the con- vention. The Roosevelt supporters in New York are devoting most of their energy to fighting Hughes. I think the convention will go at least five days. They will not begin balloting for Pres- ident until Saturday, June 10.”’ Nominating speeches for presidential candidates may be limited to 10 minutes each and seconding speeches to five minutes for each candidate, according to present plans. The different candidates are being asked for their opinion on the subject. Upham said the local committee had received more than 60,000 applications for convention tickets. The Chicago fund raised to meet the expenses of the con- vention has been oversubscribed $200,000, The last convention cost Chicago $101,000 because of the large number of con- tests. This time it is believed the ex- penses will not exceed $80,000 and the committee will be able to refund a sub- stantial sum from the $100,000 guaran- teed. which Busy Bee Bakery Special This Week.

Le DECISION AS 10 NICHOLLS DEAL Wants to Hear All Prosecutor’s Testimony Before Passing on Status of Case. The trial of C. C. Nicholls, real estate dealer, charged with embezzling $8500 from the Ashdown Building and Real Estate Co., proceeded today, though Judge Grimm reserved his decision 25 te whether Nicholls’ dealings with the Achdown company constituted a defttor end creditor transaction or involved a criminal diversion of funds by Nicholls. In late editions of yesterday's Post- Dispatch {it was erroneously asserted that in ordering the trial to proceed Judge Grimm overruled the defense’s de- murrer, on which arguments had been heard at the forenoon session. The Court’s announcement was that a deci- sion on the demurrer would be with- held until after evidence for the State Lad been heard. Firm’s Head Testifies. W. H. Humes of Webster Groves, for- mer president of the Ashdown company, testified that in February, 1913, his cumpany planned to erect a building o1 a lot at 6879 Nina place. He said he went to see Nicholls, and an arrange- ment Was made by which the Ashdown company signed a deed of trust and executed notes for $8500, in return for which Nicholls was to advance the money to put up the building. Humes said he could not remember the details of his conversation with Nicholls, except that it was agreed that Nicholls from time to time should ad- vance the necessary money on orders signed by Hwmes and the building con- tractor, and that the Nicholls-Ritter- Goodnow ‘rm was to receive a com- mission of 24% per cent for financing the building. Refused to Honor Orders. Humes testified that after $1600 or $1700 had been paid out, Nicholls re- fused to honor orders for more pay- ments, saying he did not have the mcney,. On cross examination by A. C. Ma- rcney of *~r Nicholls, Humes said a part of the money to buy the Nina place lot was advanced by Miss Jennie Ashdown, a relative of E. P. V. Ritter, one of Nicholls’ partners. A first payment of $500 or $1600 was made on the lot, he said, and the re- mainder of the purchase price of $2/0 was to be paid at the rate of $50 a month. About $1200 ov $1790 had been paid on the lot when the building agreement was made with Nicholls. Maroney asked now it was possible for the Ashdown company to obtain $8500 credit on a $2700 lot. Humes replied that as a boy he had worked for Nicl:olls’ firm and that 14 was related by marriage to Ritter. “Then you were relying on your rela- tives to give yeu an accommodation which you couldn’t have got elsewhere?’ said Maroney. Relation by Marriage, “No, I wasn't,’’ replied Uumes. “'l want it understood that Ritter isn’t in my family. He's only a relative by marriage.’’ “Didn't Ritter promise to pay off this obligation to the Ashdown company?” asked Maroney. “Do you know where Ritter is now?” ‘“Yes,’’ said Humes; ‘“‘the last I heard of him he was occupying the best suite in the Biltmore Hotel in New York. He isn’t in my famiiy.”’ This seeemed to be n point that Humes desired to empha- size. Maroney introduced in evidence one of the orders on which Nicholls was sup- posed to pay out money for the build- ing work. It contained the words: Charge to my loan,’ and was signed by Humes for the Ashdown company. This was to support the defense’s con- tention that Nicholls merely made a lean to the Ashdown Co., taking the $8500 deed of trust as security and that he did not hold the deed in trust for the Ashdown company, and consequent- ly had a right to sell it.

He paid for it partly with cash and partly with another deed of trust which he had bought from Nicholls in November, 1912. After foreclosing on the Nina place property, he said, he found there were $1000 in mechanics’ liens against it and had to pay that amount to release them. At the conclusion cf Westermayer's testimony Judge Grimm asked Circuit Attorney harvey if he would have more evidence to offer. He said that as far az the testimony had gone it seemed to him tt .t Nicholls had bought the $8500 deed from the Ashdown Realty Co., and consequer.tly had a right to sell it to Westermayer. The Circuit Attorney replied that he would offer books of the Nicholls com- pany in evidence and would introduce the testimony of contractors to show that when they asked for money Nich- olls told them he had no more of the Ashdown company’s funds, indicating that he then acknowledged he was the trustee and custodian of those funds. Judge Grimm yesterday afternoon re- served decision on a demurrer in which the defense alleged that Nicholis should not be tried as an individual, as it had been shown that he acted as the presi- dent of a reul estate corporation. ARCHBISHOP HARTY TO TAKE CHARGE OF OMAHA DISTRICT Former St. Louls Pastor. Now in Manilla, Will Be Assigned to New Archbishogpric. St. Louis Catholics, and many who are not Catholics. are greatly interested in the announcement, made in _ dis- patches from Washington, that Arch- bishop Jeremiah J. Harty of Manila is t» return to the United States, and is tu be Archbishop of Omaha. Archbishop Harty is a native of St. Louis, studied and was ordained to the priesthood here, and was the or- ganizer, 28 years ago, of St. Leo's Par- ish, which has its church at Twenty- third and Mullanphy streets. He re- mained at St. Leo's as pastor for 1b years, and in 1908 he was named Arch- Lishop of Manila. He went to Manila as the successor o; a Spanish prelate, and has co-oper- ated with the civil authorities in the introduction of American ways. In re- cent years he has felt the effect of the tropical climate more severely than at first, and on his latest visit to St. Lcuis, in December, lv», it became krown that he hed for a transfer to this country. He is now 62 years old. ‘he See of Omaha has hitherto been a bishopric. By the appointment of an Archbishop as its head, it becomes an archbishopric, according to St. Louis priests.

FOR 191/ | Extra Amount Will Be Raised by Taxing Incomes, Inherit- ance and Munitions. REVENUE HAS INCREASED Of Estimated Expenditures Be- tween $90,000,000 and $100,- 000,000 Is for Preparedness. Fy Associated Press. WASHINGTON, May 19.—Members of the House Ways and Means Committee wre getting ready today to frame 4 bil: to provide about $150,000,000 addi- tional revenue for the fiscal year end- ing June 30, 1917, by taxing incomes, In- heritances and munitions. The amount needed, as reported yes- terda; by Secretary McAdoo, is $76,000,- 0 less than even conservative mem- bers of Congress calculated would be required. Chairman Kitchin of the House Ways and Means Committee announced the plan to raise additional revenue would be shaped within two weeks and the House would be ready to consider it im- mediately after thd national conven- tions. He believes that with the rev- enue problem simplified by the reduced esiimate of the amount needed the en- tive legislative program can be com- pleted by the House in time to allow acGjournment by Aug. 1. Senate debate may prolong the session, however. Balance Estimated. Secretary McAdoo estimated the bal- a:.ce in the general revenue fund at ti. end of the present fiscal year would be about $150,000,000 and $13,500,000 at the end of the 1917 fiscal year. He took into consideration probable costs of the army and navy increases, larger ex- penditures for good roads, rural cred- its and flood protection. This also means that much less new revenue will have to be raised to meet the bill for preparedness. News of the condition of the treas- ury came as a pleasant surprise to mem- bers of the Ways and Means Committee, who have been pondering for weeks on the framing of revenue measures. It is probable that all of the revenue measures, including provision.for pre- paredness revenues, a tariff commission and the encouragement of the dye stuffs industry, will be included in an omnibus bill. The President is understood to favor that plan. In making up the estimates the addi- tional cost to the country of prepared- ness during the year 1917 was placed at from $90,000,000 to $100,000,000, a figure probably. considerably less than appro- priations to be authorized by Congress, but approximating the sum which actu- ally would be spent during the vear under the authorization. An estimate compiled by McAdoo when Congress convened last December showed a deficit of $62,000,000 in the general fund June 30, 1917, instead of the $13,500,000 balance in the present esti- mate. The previous estimate contem- plated the extension of the emergency revenue tax to the end of the fiscal year of 1917. The emergency measure expires by limitation Dec. 31 next and in compiling the revised estimate McAdoo figured on eliminating the stamp tax features of the measure from July 1 next. The $62,000,000 deficit which seemed likely when Congress convened was esti- mated on a basis that did not include provisions for good roads, rural credits, or flood expenditures, all of which are included in the revised estimate. It was then figured that Congress would have to raise $112,000,000 by addi- tional legislation to bring the general fund balance up to the necessary $50,- 000,000 at the end of the next fiscal year. Treasruy Receipts Increase. Increases in treasury receipts have been most marked in the internal reve- nue department. Ordinary revenues, placed at $272,000,000 for the fiscal year 1916 in the estimate of last December will approximate $303,000,000, an increase of $31,000,000, Next year’s ordinary reve- nue receipts were placed in the previ- ous estimate at about $265,000,000; in the revised estimate at about the same fig- ure as this year’s. These revenues cover mainly the tax on distilled liquors, cigars, cigarettes and tobacco. Revenue from the income tax will go about $100,000,000 this year, Secretary McAdoo ¢._timates, and certainly above $105,000,000 next year. The previous es- timate has placed this revenue at $35,- 000,000 and $90,000,000, respectively. The increase of nearly $./,000,000 in these two items of revenue alone this year is attributed to general prosperity, to strict enforcement of the internal reve- nue laws and the elimination of long- standing frauds in the payment of tax- es on tobacco, whisky and oleomarga- rine by which the Government lost $10,000,000.

S.”’ OLLOWING is the extract fF from the letter of a Ger- man professor in Berlin, which Col. Roosevelt quoted in his Detroit speech today as in- dicating Germans want the United States to go to war with Japan: “It is perhaps open to ques- ' tion whether genuine German interests would derive benefit from American armaments. In order to form an opinion, one would have to be able to fore- see * * * what lines Ger- man policy will follow after the conclusion of. peace, and particularly how our relations with Japan will shape them- selves.

DETROIT, Mich., May 19.—Col. Theo- dore Roosevelt, in an address here to- day, at the Detroit Opera House, reiterated h!s opposition ‘“‘to all kinds of hyphenated Americanism,’ advocated universal military service based on uni- versal training, and declared that we must abolish ‘‘pork-barrel’’ methods in our national defense, stop talking and get down to the actual business of thor- ough preparedness if we are ‘‘to make this nation as strong as are its convic- ticns in reference to right and wrong.” Roosevelt, in the course of his principal speech, quoted a letter from Prof. Paul Rohrbach of Berlin. indi- cating Germany would encourage a war between America and Japan. Roosevelt said he believed this letter interpreteg the attitude of the mili- taristic party in Germany. This let- ter was printed in the New York Times April 4. The Colonel came here to help De- tmolt celebrate “American day,” the demonstration being intended to in- dicate the sentiment of Detroit citi- zens who favor “preparedness to pre- vent war.’’ Greeted by Children. Hundreds of school children, wav- ing American flags, were among the throng which greeted him when he arrived today. Before Col. Roose- velt was driven to the Detroit Ath- letic Club, at the head of an auto- mobile parade, he made a short ad- dress to the Boy Scouts, who were lived up In front of the station. He tcld them he believed in their organ- izz.tion because it taught them to fight for the truth and “not to be mcllycoddles."’ After luncheon at the Athletic Club Co. Roosevelt went to the Opera Hcuse for his principal address, on “Americanism and Preparedness for Peace.” This afternoon he was to make a short address to a mass meet- ing: in Grand Circus Park, in the heart of the Lusiness district, and it was an- —Ss oer ™ —— itl ti ti i i til -—_ i Shown at » ‘ a price; you will sizes (Main Floor) find them in all eo utes in the afternoon to the Brother- hood of Railway Trainmen at their con- vention hall. He is to return to New York tonight. Col. Roosevelt prefaced his Speech by announcing that he had ‘‘come here to Michigan because in the primary for the selection of delegates to the Republican national convention, Mr. Ford was vic- torious, and following on his victory here, he showed a marked popular strength in Nebraska and Pennsylvania. The effect of this showing has been im- mediately visible upon many of the poli- ticians within and without Congress.”’ “We, through cur™“representatives at Washington,” said Col. Roosevelt, “‘have absolutely refused in the smallest degree to prepare during these 22 months of world cataclysm. We have refused to learn the smallest part of the lesson being written on the scroll of torment in Europe. We have fatuously refused to take the smallest step, either to do our duty to ourselves or to-do our duty to others. We have endeavored to deceive ourselves by announcing that in this policy of supine inaction and of failure to perform duty, we are actuated by the loftiest motives. I doubt whether we have really deceived ourselves, and most certainly we have not deceived others. There is not a nation in the world which believes that our course of conduct has been dictated by anything save timidity, unworthy shrinking from effort and re- sponsibility. and cold and selfish love of money making and of soft ease.

They object, Col. Roosevelt added, ‘‘even to make-believe preparedness; they in- sist on even more thorough-going help- lessness than that which we had so amply provided at Washington.” In urging “universal military service based on universal t ing,’’ Col. Roose- velt said he 4 it because it would be not only of culable benefit to the nation in the event of war, but of incalculable benefit to the individuals undergoing it and, therefore, to the With just One Dollar as a first pay- ment you can select a complete out- fit and wear it home. If at any time the purchase is not satisfactery you may return the outfit, and we will replace same. All you pay is One Dollar a Week. Can you do more by paying cash? 10 FOOT ON CREDIT USE THIS COUPON He continued: “I believe that the dog tent wouul prove a most effective agent for democratizing and nationalizing our life: quite as much so as the public school, and far more so than the American fac- tory and the American city as they are today. Preparedness through universal service would turn out to be the best possible school of practical civics. In such a school all men who are Ameri- cans in spirit would get together and learn to work together, so as to insure co-operation among our people in social and industrialu life. Such co-operation will secure not merely liberty and oppor- tunity, but also the sense of obligetion— which is just as important as the other two. “Abolish Pork-Barrel Methods.” ‘We must abolish pork-barrel methods in the army—as regards army posts, navy yards, as regards everything else. Remember that sfter preparedness has been accepted by the country. and the necessary funds voted, the real work will have only begun. England’s navy represents over threo centuries and Ger- many’s army over two centuries of Jevel- opment along an unbroken line of tradi- tion and progress to the present stage of efficiency. The first and all important essential is to divorce the army and navy organizations absolutely from poli- tics.’’ Col. Roosevelt asserted that ‘the ex- treme naval party in Germany has re- cently advocated war with the United States on the ground that in the end, as the result of such a war, we would have to pay all the war expenditures of the Germanic Powers and their allies. “These enormous sums would be raised by taxation on all our citizens,”’ he said; “those of German descent would pay as heavily as those of any other descent; and all would share equally the shame and dishonor. A foreign foe is the foe of all of us alike. If, in this land, theo citizens of one national origin success- fully set the fashion of influencing this nation to its own detriment in the in- terest of the country from which they originally came, sooner or later it is absolutely certain that the citizens of some other national origin will repeat Western Optical Co. the experiment; and this country will be =J)}yy~ Tomorrow, Saturday, May 20th —_—, % 7 Dea . 7 ~ 34 “> ~J 4 . > _ a . oS =: " age — sith Fe apes sae Py a ? ae ee fr in Continued from Preceding Page. nation, a8 regards the work of peace.”’ ? left degraded and helpless ameng the nations.

[It will be eaten by your children aw) grandchildren and great-grendchildren. just as much as by mine. Americanism of the Spirit. “Americanism tsa matter of the spirit, not of birthplace or descent. Among the best Americans I have ever known, among the men closest to me in social and political life, are and have been, men born in, or men whose fathers were born in, Germany, Ireland, the Scandinavian kingdoms and other Eu- ro>>an countries. They stand on an ex- act level with the other Americans, whose ancestors were here in Colonial times. We are all par® of the same people. “We all stand together for our com- ron flag and our common country. We must so prepare that this country will be a good place in which the children’s children of all of us shall live; and to do this we must so prepare that we can repel all foreign foes and preserve the inestimable right of settling for | ourselves the fate of this mighty dem- ocratic republic. But the essence of tr‘: policy of full preparedness, which, remember, is not only military but at least as much industrial and social, is that it is purely defensive, and is the b> t possible assurance of peace.

Many kinds of paper have doubled. Some kinds of ink have gone up even more. Every business man, every buyer, every housewife, knows how rapidly prices are rising. In all that goes to the making of books, this rise has been especially marked. Some kinds of leather—as, for example, the morocco used for one of the most popular bindings of the Encyclopaedia Britannica—are now almost unobtainable. in binding having increased 50%. Even the paper boards used One result of this increase is that we can obtain no more sets of the “Handy Volume” Issue of the Britannica at anything like present costs.

The committee struck out the battleships, the gunboat and five destroyers, but added three battle cruisers, one scout cruiser, one ammunition ship and one oil fuel ship. The bill carried a total appropriation of approximately $250,000,000 as against $150,000,000 for the current fiscal year. The five battle cruisers are to be as powerful and swift as any afloat. They will carry 10 14-inch guns‘and have 35 knots speed and 180,000-horsepower. Of the 20 submarines, three are to be of 800-ton displacement and the other 17 of such type and design as the Navy De- partment may determine. The commit- tee agreed that eight of the smaller submarines and four of the destroyers shall be built on the Pacific Coast, pro- vided that the cost shall not be greater than on the Atlantic coast. The committee Democrats voted sol- idly for the program as adopted. Re- publicans made many motions for great- er increases. Representative Stephens of California proposed six battleships, 21 scout ships, 80 destroyers and 78 sub- marines. FRIENDLY SUIT 10 y | SETTLE ROAD BOND PUINTS 1S PLANNED A friendly --‘t, to obtain a _ settle- ment by the Supreme Court, in advance, of legal points involved in the $3,000,040 bond issue for highway building in &€t. Louis County, is being planned by Pros- ecuting Attorney Ralph, who is acting as legal adviser for the County Court in the matter. Ralph told a Post-Dispatch reporter today that’ the letting of contracts would probably -vait until the Supreme Court had passed on the suit. He said that he believed very little delay would result in the long run, as the engineers will continue doing the necessary pre- liminary work, and the mor: time they have the more jobs can be begun at once when the suit has been decided. The question involved in the proposed suit, Ralph said, would bear on the commercial value of the bonds, rather than on their validity. He was asked whether, in view of this fact, it®€ould not be possible to let contracts without waiting for the suit to be decided. He replied that it would be best to have the legal questions settled first, as un- expected complications sometimes arise. He also said that the amount of prelim- inary work needed is not generally un- derstood. County Engineer Elbring, James C. Travilla, special engineer for two office men and three field men are now working on the preliminaries ani expect to be kept busy most of the summer, The legal points which Ralph wishes to have settled, in advance of the is- suance of the bonds, are, whether any large part of the bonds must be issued in $100 denominations; how long the bonds may run; and, possibly, whether the bonds are taxable. The statute governing county bond irsues provides that one-half of one issue of bonds must be in $100 de- nominations. Ralph hopes to get a rul- ing to the effect that one-half of one small issue, such as that covering a single road or bridge, will suffice, and that it will not be necessary to issue $1,500,000 of the bonds in $100 denomina- tions. They sell much better in $500 and $1000 denominations, he said,-and the difference in premium in favor of large bonds might be as high as one-half of one per cent. This margin, on $1,500,000 of bonds, would mean a saving of $7500. The statute seems to indicate that the bonds may be recalied within twenty vears. Ralph believes that the longer they can run without being recalled, the more they will be sought as an invest- rnent for estates and trust funds. As to taxation, he believes the bonds are not exempt. The statute says they are ex- empt, but the State Constitution, in listing exemptions, does not include [county improvement bonds.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. - I think we are under obligations to Judge Priest for his letter to a morning newspaper, in -which he rebukes the editorial writer of that newspaper for calling him a pettifogger. Of coursé, we all know that there was a day when courts administered plain justice as nearly as human could do. Even Judges were not law- yers in many instances. Then came the day of written law, when men’s lives were staked on _ @ommas and shades of legal meaning of English words, which meaning never has been stable. In those Gays, too, bribery was a conventional of- fense. A buyer was supposed to get his rebate. For 40 years law and business have been swing- ing slowly back to plain justice. the days of technical wording of law, which were even before the days when street car com- “panies were handed franchises on moonshine ‘promises and which some capitalists and attor- neys insist should not be changed one fiota to meet changed conditions. There is only one thing more that I now think ‘of that would fllustrate Judge Priest’s estimate of himself. That would be his definition of tech- nical. J. Invite Roosevelt. To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. I have just read your editorial in Sunday’s pa- per, May 14, saying a great popular demonstration on preparedness would be good for the men and women of St. Louis. I believe you have expressed a long-felt want. Yes, and let us have it right away, and please invite Col. Roosevelt to come to St. Louls. Will the Post-Dispatch do that much towards starting a great public demonstration? Please invite T. R. to come here and give us one ‘of his grand talks, and let it be at night so every- bedy can go and hear him. The citizens of De- troit got together and invited him; they felt the need of just such a man, and he wen:. God knows, ‘we need him.

The City Plan Commission in collecting statis- tics and data for a map of the district from Seo- ‘ond street to the river front between Franklin avenue and the free bridge ought to extend their ‘es a few steps farther and include the wharf ts of the various steamers operating out of is port.- This map, I understand, will show all v t Bufldings and the character and use of ‘gach structure. It will be used by the River Front Committee-in working out prorosed plans ‘for the general treatment of the levee district. _ St. Louis can spend the entire,mil! tax on the “ et mentioned in making it presentable. But ‘We results will remain as they are, unless some- thing is done to the unsightly wharf boats, in tad Pepair and no rpaint. The clean-up and paint campaign should com- ence at the river front and go west. Visitors - eming to your beautiful city, both by steamer i rail, look alongwour levee and their first im- jon certainly es them an awful opinion of » . your river steamers and equipment. The owners _ »@t these wharf boats ought to be made to comply with the city ordinance. “Keep them in good repair” and presentable or Dn ee A TRAVELING SALESMAN. | AVERTING A CALAMITY. The suggestion of Albert Bond Lambert in Les- lie’s Weekly, reprinted in Thursday’s Post-Dis- patch, that a national conference of commercial and trade organizations be held to devise means of adjusting the differences between the rail- roads and their employes is valuable. It directs public attention to the vital interests of business of all kinds and labor in all industries to the out- come of the controversy. | If a strike should be called 300,000 men of four great brotherhoods—engineers, firemen, conduc- tors and trainmen—and 500 roads would be af- fected. This gigantic struggle, with the stoppage of railroad operation, would be a colossal calam- ity. It would interrupt all business and industry. The public—we mean by the public business men in all lines of commerce, manufacturers, from the greatest to the smallest, and wage earners in all industries—would be affected. Hard times would press upon all, If the demands of the brotherhoods are granted, it would mean an increased expense to the rail- roads, estimated to be from $75,000,000 to $100,- 000,000. The railroads could not meet this addi- tional expense without increased rates, so that business and industry would be seriously affected in either case. The differences should be arbitrated, but the brotherhoods so far have refused arbitration. There is yet hope of an agreement between the railroads and the men. A conference of repre- sentatives of both will be held in New York on June 1. We doubt the wisdom of calling a general con- ference of business and labor organizations until after the negotiations between the railroads and the brotherhoods are concluded. It might not have a good effect. The conference might resent an effort to control its action during negotiations. If the outcome is unfavorable, every available means of obtaining an amicable seftlement should be used. There should be a concentrated effort of business men and wage earners to avert a strike. The question of how to do this might wisely be considered by a nation-wide joint conference of representatives of all business and labor organiza- tions in the country. As in the anthracite strike when President Roosevelt successfully intervened to obtain arbi- | tration, President Wilson might act effectively to bring about a peaceful settlement. The cause would justify presidential interposition. ‘= = ~~” ~~ SS LET GADSKI SING. The protest against Mme. Gadski’s participation son Field, because her husband has been arrested on a charge of being in a pro-German plot savors of persecution. The protest made anonymously here in St. Louis has been made openly else- where. What has the alleged plot of Mrs. Gadski’s hus- band to do with her singing in grand opera? She is not accused of being a German plotter nor of any connection with a German plot. If she were she might still sing to the great delight of opera goers. She is a great artist and neither the fact that she is married nor that her husband is ac- cused of crime should affect her artistic career and work. The operatic management should chuck the anti-Gadski protests in the waste basket. = = * — = WOLVES FOR SALE. Fred Smith of Coffman, Mo., has three good wolves that he wants to sell, because he keeps sheep. He warrants the wolves big, fine, healthy and hardy feeders. He would like to sell them te somebody in St. Louis who doesn’t keep sheep, and in a letter to Mayor Kiel he says he will let ‘em go cheap. While apprectating Fred’s thoughtful and con- siderate offer we would say that although few of us here keep sheep most of us are in the same fix Fred is in when it comes to wolves. We would all like to get rid of our wolves. They pester us morning, noon and night. They come in the mail, monthly, in the form of bills. They hang around the back door and they even ring the front door bell. They chase us around all over the place—even ring us up on the telephone. Fred Smith of Coffman, Mo., little realizes what we city people have to put up with in the shape of wolves. There are worse wolves and more of them in the city than anywhere else. People in the city would be glad to give away their wolves for nothing. — = = — HUGHES ON THE SECOND BALLOT? Senator Lodge still believes that the Colonel will be nominated at Chicago. The strength for Hughes, he says, will reach its maximum on the second ballot. If this maximum does not nomi- nate him, his vote thereafter will decline and among the other candidates Mr. Lodge thinks none can command as much support as the Colonel. - As the Senator has maintained relations of intimacy with the Colonel for many years, this is a rather significant view. It only means that he thinks the Colonel is still in a position to trade advantageously with the leaders who will have absolute control of the great majority of the delégates. That the bargaining will be going on after the balloting begins is conceivable. “Hughes on the second or not at all” probably implies a confidence that the Colonel will be able to formulate terms satisfactory to the bosses be- fore the third ballot begins. = - " te ee THROWING AWAY HER POWDER PUFF May not equal suffrage powder its nose? Does politics demand plain women? The General Federation of Women’s Clubs has put the ban on that adventitious aid to nature, the powder puff; ruling that it shall not be tolerated in the forth- coming national conven Whether it is good policy for women to disdain the feminine touches in their appeal for political rights may be doubted. Shiny noses, so far as we can see, possess no distinct advantages over pow- dered ones, in their appeal. The charming busi- ness of touching up her nose frequently, on the street, in the theaters and public places, even in the office and the busy marts of trade, was a subtle bit of flattery to those from whom the vote must be obtained. It was vastly more attractive than the manners of the old-fashioned women who affected the vapors in our presence and refreshed themselves with smelling salts. There is a limit past which sheer plainness in the open-air production of “Siegfried” at Robi- .- ought not to venture. It ought to stop this side | of short hair. As between the plain, common- sense, short-haired, grim aspect and the toiletted, frizzed, perfumed and powdered, with a little natu- ral beauty and sweetness thrown in, the latter will win at everything, including suffrage. = = _- = ST. LOUIS FOR PREPAREDNESS. The decision of the local Executive Committee of the National Security League to have a pre- paredness demonstration on June 3, offers oppor- tunity for St. Louisans to express their senti- ments in favor of adequate national defenses in a telling way. The question of preparedness for national de- fense will never be settled until it is settled right. It is far from right settlement now. Although Congress has responded to some extent to aroused public sentiment in the crisis facing the country, it has not taken adequate action. The naval pro- gram will be increased and improved over expec- tations of a few months ago. The conference bill providing for reorganizing and increasing the army is a step in the right direction, but it does not assure training or service of adequate forces Im peace and does not provide for forces neces- sary to national safety in war. If we were con- fronted by war with a strong Power, under the provisions of the bill we would face disaster and humiliation. Public opinion must be aroused, enlightened and crystallized into a demand for measures which will assure the training of all able-bodied citizens in peace and their service when needed in war. The defense forces should be put upon a perma- nent adequate basis which will prove dependable for any emergency at any time. Universal train- ing with the obligation of service will alone give an effectual guarantee of peace and insurance against war disasters. St. Louis will not be alone in the preparedness demonstration. This city has joined with Chicago and 23 other cities in asking all cities to partict- pate in the June 3 demonstration. That date will be National Preparedness day, in accord with the Post-Dispatch's suggestion. Hard work and earnest co-operation are nec- essary to organize a successful demonstration. The responsibility for the result lies on every citizen and organization in St. Louis favoring sane and adequate preparation. = = * ~~ —- Every sign of whiskers for rent attracts the attention of Presidents after three years. ‘*DISFAVOR’’ EXPRESSED BY BERLIN. Through its embassy and its consular offices in this country the German Government has sent an order to all its citizens resident here instructing them to obey as a matter of duty “the law of the state in which they reside.” timent in this country is being affected by pass- port frauds, the destruction of munition plants, bomb plots against ships and other acts of vio- lence in which court investigations show that Germans were implicated. A striking change is marked by the order from the time when these outrages, as is shown by judicial records, had the support and even active direction of officials of the German Government here in a representative capacity. A seizure of incriminating papers from one such official is still being protested on the ground of diplomatic immunity. No suggestion as to the damaging effect on American sentimeht of intemperate and indis- creet utterances in the German-American press is contained in the message from Berlin. Per- haps it is to be implied. Patriotic American papers which have denounced these plots and at- tempts at terrorism should at least be excul- pated by the tenor of the instructions from the charge of biased action in the British Interest. They merely looked on these lawless activities with the same “great disfavor” with which Berlin looks on them. + «» FS A GOOD ROADS FEDERATION. A federation of all the good roads forces of St. Louls to co-operate with more than a score of counties surrounding it is proposed by Harry B. Hawes as the next step toward highway improve- ment in this locality. The suggestion is an admirable one. The immediate purpose is to provide permanent roads through territory within a radius of 60 miles of this city and to aid the construction of cross State roads and national trails. The federation is designed to give representation to the good roads committees of St. Louis civic organizations, the members of the State association devoted to the same object and all official and unofficial agencies promoting better highways in the surrounding counties. Such a centralization of effort would prevent work at cross purposes, save expense and give speedier, more satisfactory results. It would be a means of publicity for creating favorable public opinion, a vehicle for transferring the momentum of success from territory already assured of good roads to territory less happily situated. The scope of the federation movement can be seen from the list of Missouri and Illinois counties included: In Missouri—Franklin, Jefferson, Lincoln, St. Charles, St. Francois, Ste. Genevieve, War- ren and Washington. In Dlinois—Bond, Calhoun, Clinton, Greene, Jersey, Madison, Macoupin, Montgomery, Mon- roe, Perry, Randolph, St. Clair and Wash- ington, Co-operation on a scale coextensive with the territory it is desired to provide with good roads has been shown to be necessary. Kansas City has scored a notable advance by co-operating with outlying subdivisions. St. Louis’ Fifty-Mile Fed- eration can give intensive results in good roads promotion. The Post-Dispatch suggests that well within the jurisdiction of the 50-mile movement is the repair of worn, unsightly streets in St. Louis city and highways of worse condition in St. Louis County prior to the meeting of the Democratic national — * ee eure es Pop ie.

Yet Bartlett was frugal, honest and industrious. He exchanged new cook- ing tins for old apparel, once a month shipped his accumulation to the city, and was said to make quite a profit selling to second-hand shops in @ big: city. Little Benny. HERE was one child in Acton, z however, who was not afraid of neither Bartlett nor his bag. He was Bennie Rawson, 4 years old, and his mother was called “the young widow.” Many doubted if she was anything more than a “grass widow,” and there were many guesses as. to a hidden tragedy in her life. Cer- tainly in her serrowful, impressive face there were traces of suffering. She had come to the village, whence: no one had learned. Reserved, yet gracious, sad, yet always industrious, she had won the respect of the com- munity. Her kindness toward old Bartlett, when she had housed and nursed him when he had a broken leg, had bound him to a debt of of majesty and mystery. What tales! J gratitude that never left him. Rarely a day passed that Bartlett did not make it a point to pass the Rawson home. Rarely a day that he did not bring his prime favorite, lit- tle Benny, an apple, candy, a toy, The friendship of these two lonely waifs was the one bright spot in the life of the old fellow. He was seated on the doorstep one afternoon, taking a rest after his reg- ular rounds, Benny enchanted with the fairy story he ‘vas reciting, when Mrs. Rawson came to the door and gieeted him. The quick eye of Bart- lett detected a new pallor, a vague anxiety in her face. ‘Come in and speak with me before you go, Mr. Bartlett,’’ she said quietly —‘‘will you, please?’ The Deserted Wife. — bagman nodded assent wonder- ingly. He soon distracted the at- tention of his young companion t» some kittens in the garden, and went into the neat little sitting room of the house. “I know you are a true friend, Mr. Bartlett,’”’ spoke Mrs. Rawson gravely, ‘and I venture to ask you to do some- thing for me.”’ “You can count on any service within ry power,’ heartily declared old Bart- lett. “I am going to confide a secret to ycu,’’ proceeded Mrs. Rawson. “I sep- arated from my husband for cause five years ago. I hid myself and my child i: this village. I hoped to be left to live out my life as I saw fit. What I feared has come. My husband has dis- ci vered me.”’ “He was )}ere—he is trying to make vou trouble?’ hegan Bartlett, and he roused up lion-like. ‘‘Not himself, but he has sent an a:;ent to represent him. This man, a lawyer, came to me today. He said that my husband is ill, dying in a neigh- boring city. He told me that his last wish is to see his boy, his darling little Benny. Oh, Mr. Bartlett! cannot you see that this is a plot to rob me of m3 child? The lawyer tried to tell me how I had misjudged my husband. I refused to listen. Six years ago that false husband and father basely de- serted us. Now he wishes to take the one person I love away from me!”’ Old Bartlett could not determine the merits of the case, but he was true t; Mrs. Rawson. She did not go into the details of her separation from her husband, but he belleved she would al- ways be in the right. Benny in the Bag. 4 NOTICED a man waiting outside while the lawyer was here,”’ con- tinued Mrs. Rawson. “That was son, with shining eyes. tris morning. Ever since, at intervals, this second man has lurked about the neighborhood. You must hide him until { find out how far these wicked schem- ers will go.” “Why, I can do that,’ replied old Bartlett. ‘“‘Benny likes me and..vill stay with me, There is my old hut. ‘t is iso- lated, no one ever comes near it. Dear lady, leave it all to me—I will carry Benny away in my bag.” This was done. If anyone was watch- Ing, they never dreamed that within the accustomed bag, snug and quiet:as a mouse, Benny reposed. The novelty of the quaint home of the bagman prevent- ed Benny from becoming lonely. The plan worked adn:rably, and old Bartlett was delighted to be able to circumvent the designs of the wicked plotters against the woman he _ so _ respected. That very evening the bagman chanced to be passing a clump of trees near the Rawson home. Fle became an eavesdrop- per to the conversation of the lawyer and his assistant. It opened his ¢yes to a wonderful! truth. It changed the @ntire complexion of the case. Mightily stirred up old Bartlett decided tc act on his own initia- tive. He hastened to his lonely hut. He took Benny a new journey—not in the bag this time. He returned to the town the next morning—alone. “Benny,” spoke Mrs. Rawson anxious- ly. as Bartlett appeared at her home. “He is with his father—l took him there and you are to join both of thein right away,’’ was the amazing reply of the bdgman. “Don't get startled now,’’ he urged soothingly, ‘“‘everything is all right. Only listen. and then be thankful, for all your troubles are over.” Rawson’s Story. ND then huinble, loyal old Bartictt A recited a marvelous story. The overheard conversation of the two strangers had enlightened him. Allan Rawson did not wish to take little Benny away from his mother—only *o see him. He dared not hope that his wife might come too, yet her place was by his side. That is, if she could forgive. He had not deserted her. Traveling out Wost on business bent, he had become involved with some swindlers who left him to bear the brunt o7 a prison sentence for their own crimes. He was ashamed to inform his wife that the stain of a con- vict was upon him. He was helpless for three years to contribute to her support. Now a relative had left him a fortune and he had sought her out. He had been very ill, but the sight of little Ben- ny had brought new hope and health. And she, his wife, always loved—old Bartiett’s eyes regarded her pleadingly. “T will go to him,” spoke Edna Raw- ) MERON AWN LIMA BEANS (:'""*' recleaned 9 hs. 1c] CHILE BEANS ©""\""* 3 bs. 20c|RED BEANS 47, ‘orsic sauce: f CHIPPED BEEF °-”;'"."

- [ Browns Beat Red Sox Were Stung Pat Hand” EXPECT 10 LOSE ——AGAMEIN WEST Ames Was the Only Pitcher He Feared in Cardinal Series, but Leon Lost, 3—0. CLUB AFTER A RECORD Streak of Eight Straight May Be Nursed Into Season’s Mark at Reds’ Expense. By W. J. O’Connor. John McGraw’s Giants made the grade yesterday against Leon Kal- amity Ames, etching victory No. 8 of their unfinished run, into the Na- tional League records. Now they look ahead over a schedule of six western games and can’t see, with a Lick telescope, anything that re- motely resembles a defeat. They have two more to play here, then four in Cincy. Ames was the pitcher McGraw feared most. “If we stop Leon we'll feed 'em our dust all the way home,” said Larry ‘ Doyle before yesterday’s battle, and it was Larry's wallop to the fence which put Ames down for the count. By winning the Giants took the sev- enth place hurdle and are now camp- ing on the Cardinal trail. Two more victories here will put the New York- ers ahead of Hug’s hirelings and within one game of first place. May Set Season’s Record. The Giants are now keyed up to such a pitch that it is hard to say when they will stop. They left home in last place, with a record of 2—12, and were 8% games out of first place, while their chances of going home in first place are now brighter than a brand-new dime. And ‘their prospects for setting a record of consecutive victories that will endure for the entire season also are roseate. They haven't yet equaled the current major league record for consecutive tri- umps, however. Cleveland put together a chain of nine In the American League, and the Giants are not even close to ‘the modern National League record, which is, by the way, held by these same Giants. In 1904 the Giants, with Bresnahan, Bowerman, Matty, Ames, McGinnity, McGann, Gilbert, Dahlen, Devlin, Don- lin and McCormick, among others, went from June 16 to July 4 without losing a battle. They encompassed 18 consec- utive victories, which is the modern- day mark for the parent body. Provi- dence won 2 straight in 1884 in the Na- tional League and a guy named Rad- bourne, pitching 50 feet to the batters, Was credited with 18 of those triumphs. Just Like Griffmen in 1912. Fielder Jones’ White Sox in 1906 won 19 straight, a record that was stained with a draw, 0—0, in the midst of the run. The Washington club came West in 1912 and, with Walter Johnson, Bob Groom and Long Tom Hughes at their best, managed to win every game on the trip, putting together 16 wins in all. The Giants seem to be on just such ca re The club is doing every- thing right and getting all the breaks to boot. However, a winning club al- Ways seems to get the breaks and the Giants are only acquiring their share. They have a wonderful collection of hitters with an abundance of speed.

Considering that the golf and tennis. seasons have been on less than a month, this is truly remarkable. The totals of the Park Department for this season are far in excess of those of 1915, when municipal tennis and golf took their first real hold on the local public. Probably the fact that the finals of the Nationa! Municipal Recreation Fed- eration in both sports will be held here thi. year has helped swell the total. Only those players who are users of the municipal courts and links will be eligible to compete for the champion- Ship. SS ~~ SY AY Doyle’s Triple Yields Another Win for Giants Cards Forfeit Only Chance to Score by Refusing to Sacri- fice in First Inning. Once upon a time a sacrifice hit jumped out of the grass and bit Miller Huggins on the ankle. Ever since that fatal day the well known sacrifice has been aS popular with the Cardinal manager as the mail man on the first ef the month. All of which helps to ex- lain the Cardinal defeat yesterday, » by the Giants. In the first inning, Jack Smtih got a life on Larry Doyle’s boot. Betzel refused “lay it down,” an turned on his Bescher’s double followed and that would have scored Smith. But alas, you can’t score @ guy sitting on the bench, ; That’s the closest the Cardinals came to a run, and from this some may argue that it matters not in the final reckoning whether or no the sacrifice was played in the first frame. But it does matter. A club with a one-run lead forces the other fellow to play a different game, and pos- sibly the Giants might have spolled their attack by playing to overcome this run in the first frame. The elghth successive victory for the Giants was clean cut and well defined, be- cause Jack Smith played Larry Doyle’s line drive in the third inging like a clown. One gone in this round, Robertson singled to left. Doyle lifted a long fly to right center. Smith got a poor start and the ball went to the fence for a triple, scoring Robertson. Smith then made a wild re- turn to Corhan, and Doyle scored on the error. McKechnie’s single, an out and Burns’ single yielded another in the fourth, and that was all for the day. The Cards couldn't golve Benton, who improved as the innings wore on. Jack Miller pulled up lame in the neck and Miguel Gonzales showed at first. The Castilian person had a great day, making two hits which were wasted because Chief Wilson and Roy Corhan couldn’t make an impression on Benton. Hugging finally benched Wilson in the let Butler swing. Artie then d, as lost a lot is 100 points shy of what it should be. all for Tommy Long! —— The Browne couldn't use Bill McKechnie.

Yes, there were a few in- terrogations from the rafters as early as the first round. Thére were so many times that Mike avoided popping across with his right that it is hard to dig the most flagrant out of the mess. When the end eame Mike stood in the center of the ring and grinned sheepishly as the “boos” soared about his ears. There was no criticism coming, so far as Mike's. left jab was concerned; it had Lewis’ face a smear, but it was only the continual pes. poke of a master that ac- complished it.

aT MILLER | AND PRATT CHOKE THE FOSTER JINA Timely Hits by Lead-Off Men Yields First Victory Over Hub Star in Two Years. Special to the Post-Dispatch. BOSTON, Mass., May 19.—‘‘The team has started its march toward ‘the top,” said Fielder Jones after the Browns’ victory yesterday, 7—1, over the Red Sox. “All the players are now in shape to fight, having struck their real gait. You coulg not want for a bet- ter game than was played against the Mackmen on Wednesday, and, as for yesterday’s triumph over the Red Sox, it was the work of a master combination. The men hit well and by beating Foster, who was never previously beaten by the Browns, they have strangled a persistent jinx. That augurs well for the future. The ‘pep’ displayed by all the men took the champions by surprise, while their Bpeee on the paths indicated .to-me e team has finally got going and that the bottom rung of the ladder will not be our lot much longer.” It was Fielder’s first peek at Fen- way Park. When he quit the league om 1909 the Red Sox didn’t have such palatial home. However, yester- fats crowd was not very complimen- tary to the visitors. old wares held the attendance down to 212 And at that it was the first game of the week here. Double Steal Goes Over. The Browns got away nicely yes- terday. Shotton made the first of his four hits right at the bell. Two outs put him on third. Then Miller walked. A double steal went through and Shotton scored. Miller’s double to center, an out and Marsans’ single scored another in the fourth, while the big rally was ut on in the eighth and ninth. Sis- er doubled in the eighth and was oved up by Miller. ratt also dou- ‘bled, scoring Sisler. Marsans got an infield hit, Pratt going to third. He scored on ‘Austin’s out. Weilman started it in the ninth with a single. Shotton bunted and beat the throw. Johnson's single goeored Weilman and put Shotton on third. Johnson went to second on Bisler’s out and scored behind Shot- ton on Millier’s last timely wallop to center. Bert Shotton connected with four hits put of five times up. Three of his safeties were terrific drives—two at Janvrin and g@nother at Gardner, that neither could eld—while a perfect bunt gave him his it. ast Ward Miller made a “holler when Umpire Dinneen said he picked up Cady’s drive in the sixth innipg.

It is up to the president of a league to keep his organization evenly bal- anced. The man with the biggest bank roll gets the talent. When a team wants to dispose of a player, instead of going to the highest bidder, those clubs desiring his serv- ices should draw for him and the club having the winning number would ac- quire his services at a fixed price set by the president of the league. C. M. B Throwing the Hammer. Sporting Editor Post-Dispatch: What's the matter with Browns? 1. Too much Jones, who thinks he knows it all, and that he is far above everyone else. 2. The players, as follows: Sis- ler is a bloomer 4nd is far from being a finished first baseman. AS @ seCc- ond baseman Pratt is a joke. Lavan and Austin should be in the bushes. This trio makes more errors than any other trio in the big league. John- s0n and Deal are baliplayers and rove their worth in the box score. here isn’t a catcher on the team. The pitching staff is very nearly as gos as any in the league. The out- ield is fair, but cannot compare with those of Detroit, Boston, Chicago, New York or Cleveland, If the Browns beat out Philadelphia or finish higher than eight place with this team they will be extremely lucky, Jones said: “Tl will have a winner or quit thi- season.” He will have to quit, then. You are boosting him as a great manager. It is true he was a successful manager with the White Sox a few years ago, but today is another thing. I never noticed him burning up the league in Portland and if he is so great, he should have won the Fed pennant instead of losing out by a fraction of a -point. That is where the test comes. You can compare man for man, or team for team, and the Browns can- not compare with Boston, Detroit, Chicago or New York. They have a look-in with Cleveland, Washington and Phfladelphia.

MEET NORWEGIAN STAR IN FINALS Pittsburg Woman Reaches Last Round in Metropolitan Ten- nis Tourney. NEW YORK, May 19.—Miss Martha Guthrie played her drives with such pace and spirit yesterday as to survive two rounds and win her place in the final of the women’s Metropolitan cham- pionship singles on the courts of the West Side Tennis Club at Forest Hills. The Pittsburg girl did not play showy tennis. It was mot a day for that sort of thing, for the le of wind that swept the courts caused the ll to cavort in all sorts of pranks. Miss Guthrie always took a wide margin for her shots. She first defeated Mrs. Robert Leroy, 1, G—4. Then in her semi- ae she outplayed Mrs. Henry Helle, 6—3, of the fe “ty National lst, se Wagner led One of the serorion features matenes was the a of Miss 6—2. Miss Molla Biurstedt, the playing through champion, was not compelled to display her to ame by Miss Helen Alexander of Phila- deiphia. iss Bjurstedt always has a swift gin Pe oy in reserve, so that she won at to couple with Mrs. Raymond in the semi-final matea this afternoon. fiss Wagner and Miss Bijurstedt, the na- tional Indoor osmpsons, easi doy gained a place in the semi- ro nl of me eg beating Miss Jane wseon and Good- body with the “loae “of only ‘oe pans if they would let Jones play the men he sees fit till he gets them to working together the team will win games reg- ularly. I saw in Thursday's Post a letter in which a grandstand manager said the ex-Browns’ fumbles were covered up by the i writers and the ex-Federals’ reveaied. And, moreover, he said he hoped the ex-Feds would lose the game for Weilman. But as I write this after Weilman had won his game, it shows that the ex-F'eds are not as crooked as a certain grandstand manager. In another letter in Thursday’s paper a rabid Brown rooter said Severeid had forgotten more than Hartley ever would kno Now, though I prefer Severeid to Hartley, I know that it’s not what a player forgets that makes him valuable; but what he knows. In my opinion Severeid has for-otten nothing, but, on the contrary, has been learning more each day. oe ¢ A ~ ‘aa , 14 a : . ik iby % 3 ’ : Fey

So many Motorists had carelessly stated that ‘‘all Tire Tubes are just Rubber.’’ He determined to show some folks the difference, in a way they would never forget, There were four Cars at the door, and their Owners or at at ~ —_ o these he said,— ; ‘‘Boys,—how strong do you think this Goodrich Brown Tube actually is? | ‘Do you believe it is strong enough to tow Mr. Oden’s five passenger Car, with four people in it, from here for 20 blocks ? “You don’t, eh! ‘Well ae lh a bit of a Bet I want to make ‘with any, or all, of you. : oT will bet ot Dinner that this little old —_ . Goodrich Tube (34x4) will not only tow Mr. Oden’s Car, but will tow all three of your Cars,-—fully passen- ered,—through the streets, for the full 21 blocks more than a mile and a half)—starting and stopping as many times as the crowd makes it necessary. ‘‘T will, —if you Gentlemen are agreeable,—line up all four of your Cars, right here and now, take three regular Goodrich Tubes hap-hazard out of their boxes, —tie one tube between each two Cars, (which means hauling three Cars on the first Tube) and tote You-all that way to ‘The Corners.’ ; : ‘‘Are you willing to bet a Dinner that any one of the three Tubes will ‘go broke’ on the way, or show @ flaw which would leak Air, or prevent its being used for its original Tire purpose afterwards ? ‘You are, eh? ‘‘Well,—the Bet’s on ! ‘‘Come along, and you be the Judges.”’ “ * * HE Dinner was a very Cheerful Affair. As Oden said afterwards (when putting up his share of the Bet) ‘‘you could have bet me a Million on that, Parr, and I’d have taken you up,—even if I had to borrow the Million. ‘‘T don’t see how the blamed Tubes ever did hold out,—especially going up Saco St. under such a strain. ‘‘With eight people in the last three Cars,—and a total load of over 8,800 pounds I sure thought to hear something snap before second block. : ‘‘Whaddye put into that brown Goodrich Rubber anyhow, to make it hang together like that ?”’ Fritz said that what puzzled him most was the brown Rubber Tubes ‘“‘not being all stretched out of after such a tug, even if they did hang together at finish. | ‘‘Look you,”’ said he, “‘when we released the ' ~—after the Haul,—they instantly snapped back into three-quarters of an inch longer than they were at the start! ‘‘And that % of an inch, they took up again in less than two hours rest.’’ } j e 4 4 cc ELL, boys,’’—Bill Parr remarked,—as : he pairs ton’ out a wrinkle in his well- filled vest,—‘‘that’lUl stop the Argument about all Tire Tubes being ‘just Rubber,’ won’t it ? ‘‘If the Brown Stuff that toted all you Heavywe —and your Cars,—for 21 Blocks without a Sign of Heavy Duty afterwards, isn’t something MORE than ‘Just Rubber,’ like other Tubes,—then you’d better buy the ‘Just Rubber’ kind hereafter. ‘‘[’m going to ask all of you to sign your names to this “Texas Tire Tube Test,’—just to show that you have taken part in a regular Exploit which is mighty well worth recording.”’ So indeed they did,—and here is the affidavit !
