COLISEUM, CHICAGO, June 8.—A plan calling for nation- wide compulsory military training was defeated by the Republican Resolutions Committee after much discussion, 19 to 23. COLISEUM, CHICAGO, June 8.—The Republican Committee on Resolutions by a vote of 26 to 21 today decided to incorporate. in the platform a plank endorsing in principle, woman-suffrage. Immediately after the committee reconvened Senator Borah of Idaho, introduced the following plank: ‘‘The Republican party, reaffirming its faith in government of the people, by the people and for the people, favors the extension of suffrage to women as a measure of justice to one-half the adult people of this country.”’ Later the committee sent a ’ call for absentees and this was taken to presage a move to reconsider the suffrage plank. This action was taken following the refusal of the subcom- mittee, by a vote of 5 to 4, to sanction votes for women. The sub- committee was in session until 1:30 o’clock this morning. The plank was discussed and de- bated for nearly an hour and a half when a vote was taken and the plank adopted. The advocates of suf- fragwe were widly enthusiastic over the indorsement of their measure. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the National Association for Wom- an Suffrage, declared the insertion of the plank in the Republican plat- form would set the cause ahead 25 years. | After deciding on the suffrage plank the committee tovk up the dis- cussion of prohibition and Ly an in- formal vote decided against the in- clusion of a prohibition plank in the platform. The committee adopted a plank affirming that the United States should maintain perfect neutrality. An attempt to take up the discussion of a plank favoring the establishment of an embargo on munitions of war was ruled out of order. Notice was given that the subject would be raised again. Some Platform Provisions. The full Committee on Resolutions did not resume its work until 11 o’clock, when it immediately entered upon the consideration at the Coliseum of the subcommittee’s draft of a platform. Much Interest centers about the dec- laration dealing with affairs in Mexico, owing largely to the fact that the mem- bers of the subcommittee developed dif- ferences on this question. The prov!i- sion adopted by the subcommittee in addition to its censure of the Democratic administration of affairs in Mexico calls for protection of American lives and property, not on the Mexican border alone, but throughout Mexico. The platform specifically calls for leg- ‘‘islation for the protection against child tador and just as specifically declares for general workmen's compensation leg- isiation and for legislation for the com- pensation to workmen injured in the Federal service. There is a plank devoted to merchant marine in general terms and another calling for the conservation of Ameri- ean resources, but the latter is modified $0 as to require that such conservation shall not be so administered as to inter- fore with the utilization of the resources by the people of the country. Progressive Wishes Heeded. Other planks touching on labor, Amer- fcanism, national defense and other importation of products of cheap for- eign labor, if the present Democratic tariff is continued, is viewed with alarm. The tariff plank also declares for a tariff commission. The platform reaffirms the Monroe Doctrine, asserting its necessity for our peace and safety and for the at- tainment of our manifest destiny. “We declare in favor of national control of transportation agencies through the _ Interstate Commerce Commission by a_ constitutional amendment if necessary,” says the platform. Restriction of immigration through a literacy test, as advocated by or- ganized labor, is favored. In order to meet the views of Pro- gressives, some of the social justice planks of the 1912 Bull Moose plat- form are incorporated. Among them is a provision favoring the enactment of women’s hours leg- islation in factories which do an in- terstate commerce business. The so- cial justice plans which, by unani- mous consent, are omitted from the platform, include the recall and the initiative and referendum. Bartholdt Aids. German-Americans. German sympathizers in this coun- try, represented here by former Con- gressman Richard Bartholdt of St. Louis, and others, who speak for a Ierge element of pro-German-Ameri- cans, notified members of the Com- mittee on Resolutions that any refer- ence to the acts of Germany in the European war would be considered an affront to a large element of Ameri- can citizens. They feel certain now that the members of the committee will refrain from affronting any body of Americans. Representtatives Madden and How- land and Senator Borah, Fall and Oliver practically had promised they would not support Any proposition to criticise Germany or any other nation. chow.

AUDITORIUM, June 8.—Some of the Progressive leaders, including Chairman Murdok of the National Committee, were seriously consider- ing immediate nomination today of Col. Roosevelt. Murdock was quoted as snying it might be “too late” tou morrow. AUDITORIUM, CHICAGO, June 8.— By a vote of % to 11 Raymond Robins today was chosen over Hiram Johnson by the Permanent Organization Com- mittee as permanent chairman of the cast for any other official. The conven- tion met shortly after 2 o’clock. Even though the Republican and Pro- gressive parties reach a deadlock on a presidential nominee, substational har- mony in platform declarations was as- sured today.

Adoption of the platform today, prom- ised to be the principal bueinsss of the Progressive convention. Reports of the rules, permanent organization and other routine business was or the program to precede consideration of the platform. The purpose of the co-operation be- tween the resolutions committees of the two conventions was to work out their drafts so that no hitch in a possible union would come on tiat score. It was desired taht the Progressive platform should not be so radical sa to preclude acceptance by the Rerublican nominee or the Republican platform so conser- vative the Progressives could not ac- cept in case of a joint nomination. CAN'T SMELL, WANTS $50,000 Patient Sues Surgeon Who Operated on His Nose. A suit for $50,000 for loss of smelling power was filed today by George D. Pogue of 14 Portland place against Dr. W. E. Seaur in the Humboldt Building. The petition states that In July, 1915, Pogue engaged Dr. Sauer to remove a growth from his nose and that later he paid other doctors $300 trying to correct the damage. Dr. Sauer, when asked for a statement, said he did not wish to dis- cuss the suit. . fhe Post-Dispatch is the only evening news- news gathered by the Associated Progressive convention.

He assailed President Wilson as having rendered ‘‘the most evil serv- democracy,” and declared that it was for the convention to show the people “that they have a worthy alternative to which to turn.”’ He charged that ‘professional. Ger- man-Americans”’ were seeking to terror- ize the Republican convention and that they wish to elect as President ‘a viceroy of a foreign Government.” The appeal was contained in a mes- sage to former Senator William B. Jack- son of Maryland, Republican National Committeeman, in reply to the latter’s personal invitation to the Colonel to come to Chicago. Harding Says He Has No Authority to Invite T. R. CHICAGO, June 8.—Chairman Harding after reading the statement from Roose- velt saying he would come to Chicago, if requested to by the Republicans con- |} vention said: “Col.

COLISEUM, CHICAGO, June 8.—The Republican convention at 1:31 p. m.‘today, after being in session two hours and nine min- utes, recessed to 4 p. m. to await the report of the resolutions com- mittee which still was working on the platform. | “The convention today perfected its organization, gave an ovation to Permanent Chairman Warren G. Harding and listened tu speeches. by Chauncey M. Depew of New York, ‘‘Uncle Jow’’ “annon and Senator Borah of Idaho. When the doors of the Coliseum were opened this morning two hours before the Republican convention was due to begin business, the pouring rain which has soaked the delegates and specta- tors for three days was still falling. The hall was cold and damp. The band played as the crowd began assembling. The usual line of ticket speculators braved the rain, hawking admissions, the price of which are steadily declin- ing. Inasmuch as the temporary organiza- tion was made permanent yesterday, nothinyz remained but to report the pro- ceeding to the convention today and ask its approval. The continued gloomy weather was beginning to show its depressing effect on all phases of the convention. There was evident among the early arriving delegates something of a disposition to hasten thé proceedings and bring about a final adjournment on Friday. “Tnele Joe’’ Cannon was one of the arrivals. He was having some trouble getting to the Illinois delega- tion and a big policerhan backed up the ‘line to let the former Speaker through. W. Murray Crane and some of the other lea-ers began to arrive around 11 o'clock. Police Chief Healy looked over tl.e hall and r«ported to Col. Stone, the Ser- geant at Aims, that it was the most orderly convention he had seen in W years. The floor of the Coliseum was only a fraction filled at 10:38, 10 minutes be- fore the time set for convening. None of the officers was on the platform at 11 o'clock. At 11:20 o’clock the band broke into the “Star-Spangied Banner.”’ The crowd rose and there was clapping. scattered hand- The delegates began to get seated and the police began to clear the aisles.

Senator Smoot, the chairman, came up on the platform to make the report and was greeted with applause. The report rec- ommending the seating of 987 delegates was read by the Senator with a list of the decisions in contested cases. Senator Smoot moved the adoption of the report. There was no objection. A rolling chor- us of ayes put it fhrough. The number of votes necessary nominate will be 494. Ovation for Harding. The report of the Committee on Permanent Organization was next, William H. Hahn of Ohio read the re- port recommending the temporary or- ganization be made permanent. Form- er Representative Bennett of New York took the gave)! and put the ques- tion and it was carried. Mr. Bennett then presented Senator Harding as permanent chairman. There was quite a demonstration and when he tried to gavel it down the crowd cheered a little louder. Repeated whacks of the gavel only brought more of a demon- stration. The delegations rose and the cheers rolled louder. It was the long- est sustained demonstration of the convention so far. Finally the crowd quieted and Mr. Harding thanked the convention for its approval. He said: “Ladies and gentlemen of the con- vention: I am sure the chairman is very grateful to you for your manis- festations of approval and I take this opportunity of thanking the Committee on Permanent Crganization for its recommendations and of thanking the delegates in this convention for their approval of the report. “I must take this opportunity’ also to do what I neglected to do yester- day, namely, to thank the Committee Continued on Page 2, Column 4. to Go to Chicago If Republican Convention Desires to Hear Him | G. 0.

FAIRBANKS OR BURTON FOR THE VICE PRESIDENCY “We Left Door Open and Republicans Don’t Seem to Be Coming In,” Says Chairman Murdock—Hughes Men Think Justice Is Sure to Win on Third Ballot. By As80ciated Press. CHICAGO, June 8.—When national conventions reconvened ! i the Republican and -Progsesseet today it became more and’ more apparent that there would be two tickets in the field, Victor Murdock, chairman of the Progressive National Com. mittee, summed up the whole situation when he said: ‘Well, | we left the door open and the Republicans don’t seem to be coming me’ That was the Progressive leaders’ re- ply to inquiries as to whether there re- mained any prospect for harmony and whether there was likely to be appoint- ed today conference committees repre- senting both parties to receive and pass upon peace suggestions Republicans leaders, too, discounted the success of the peace talk, saying that action had been delayed for so long that a majority of the Republican dele- gates already have decided to proceed without regard for any third party and nominate Justice Hughes, to whom the most support has been gathered. Some Want T. R. to Come, There are some among the Progres- sives and among Roosevelt Republicans as well, who still belleve that the Colonel himself could save the day if he would come to Chicago. Representative Gardner of Massachusetts, who was de- feated for Republican delegate-at-large from Massachusetts on the Roosevelt ticket, pleaded with Progressive leaders to bring Col. Roosevelt on without de- lay. Word came from Oyster Bay, however, that Col. Roosevelt had no present intention of coming to Chicago. The Republican nomination for presi- dent probably will be made in the Coliseum tomorrow, but it is not ex- pected the convention will adjourn be- fure Saturady. Ostensibly the session will be pro- lcnged to give more deliberate consider- ation than is usual to a nomination for second place, but the real purpose, it is believed, is to avoid adjournment before the Progressive convention has acted. The Progressive convention will prob- ably will not nominate before Saturday. There will only be a few hours of ses- sion today and that will be devoted to platform making and other routine. The delegates are confident that on Saturday they will name as their ticket Kkoosevelt and Johnson, their standard bearers of four years ago. : While there has been little real dis- cussion by Republicans of vice-presi- dential possibilities, it is recognized that geagraphical conditions and political expefiency will govern. Considerable talk was heard today indicating that there might be concentration on either former Vice-President Fairbanks of In- diana, or former Senator Burton of Ohio. Haghes Grows Stronger. But one certain, clean-cut result push- ee its way through the maze of reports, rumors and pronouncement. That is that Justice Hughes becomes stronger from hour to hour. Committees of both conventions named yesterday worked most of the sight and this morning endeavoring to clean up their work. The Resolutions Bubcommit tee of the Republican convention fin- ished. its deliberations at 1:30 o’ctock this morning, having drafted a platform Other committees pressed forward with their programs, trying to be ready with reports when the convention sessions state delegations desired a third, party atove all else and would do everything possible to prevent the auditorium éon- SUMMARY OF THE DAY’S CHICAGO DEVELOPMENTS Col.

He believed, how- that the second ballof, with the release of many delegates from their _bligations, would swell the Hughes vote + guch proportions that his nomination “ould almost certainly be made on the third ballot. Many of the Hughes sup- porters were even more optimistic an: said they thought that before the result of the second ballot was announced the drift would be apparent to all dele- gates and there would be enough changes of votes to bring a nomination. The Hughes managers expect Arizona, second on the roll of states, to yield to New York, so Gov. Whitman may place Justice Hughes in nomination. At one time it was said Alabama would yield to New ‘York, but it developed that the delegation was divided between two or more candidates and, having no candi- date to offer, would pass when the State was called. When: the Hughes tide became ap- parent many inquiries were made of those who are supposed to speak for ‘him as to whether his acceptance, in case of nomination, would be in any sense contingent upon a third party nomination by the Progressives, The answer was that such a contingency would in no wise be taken into consid- eration by Mr. Hughes. Asks Colonel to Come West. Former Senator Jackson of Maryland, Republican national committeeman from that State, last night sent a tele- gram to Col. Roosevelt urging him to come to Chicago in the interest of har- mony and announcing he would do his utmost in case of an acceptance to have * “ : ‘has Mr. Roosevelt given the privilege of the: convention floor.

I be- lieve this can be accomplished by a more perfect understanding between you and the Republican convention nowy assem- bled. I therefore most earnestly urge you to come to Chicago immediately to adcress this convention and to make common cause in our deliberations. If you will indicate your willingness to tuke this course, I will use my utmost endeavors to secure for you the privi- leres of the convention floor.”’ As a result of the hearing conducted by the Committee on Credentials yes- terday there will be 987 votes in the convention, with 494 necessary to nomi- nate. The District of Columbia, which had three contesting delegations, was uenied representation. Hawaii, the Vhilippines and Porto Rico were granted , uf Porto Rico did not send a ce esation. By a vote of 28 to 6 the Republican convention's Committee on Rules and Urder of Business approved the present tLesis of apportionment of delegates to the national convention made by the National Committee in December, 1913, a:d later indorsed by every state con- vention, which reduced the represent:- tion of Southern States 89 delegates. Under this rule each State is given four dlegates-at-large and one delegate for each congressional district, with an ad- ditibnal delegate in each district cast- ing 7500 or more Republican votes. Other rules followed by the National Committee in the call for the 1916 con- vention which were approved by the convention committee were: A rule eradicating the National Com- mittee to accept without question the election certificates of state officials where legalized primaries for the elec- tion of delegates have been held for use in making up the temporary roll of the convention. A rule limiting all seconding speeches to five minutes. No change was made in the order of business for thé con- vention. e ~ Mrs. Charles W. K. Kayser and Mrs. Rose W. F.

McKinley Forcefully Ob- jects to Any Overtures To- ward Progressives. By CURTIS A BETTS, A Staff Correspondent of the Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 8.—The Missouri dele- gation to the Republican National] Con- vention last night held a meeting in its quarters in the Morrison Hotel which almost broke up in a row. The meeting was called by. Otto Stifel, the St. Louis brewer, who is its chair- man, to promote harmony within the in- harmonious ranks. Thinking to avoid any danger of a wider split over the problem than al- ready existed, an agreement was entered into that there should not be mentioned the name of any candidate for the presidential nomination. So far as the agreement was con- cerned all went well, but the disagree- ment arose over the suggestion of Re- publicans and Progressive leaderg of the conventions that m peace committee. be appointed by each convention in an ef- fort to bring the conventions to an agreement on a candidate and a plat- form, Former Lieutenant-Governor John C.

Frank is a candidate for the Republican nomination for United States Senator, and is interested in having plenty of Republican votes cast. He and the other speakers said that any movement toward peace should be en- couraged and that the Republicans should be willing to confer. with the Progressives at any time if by such conferenges the Progressives could be induced to again becom@ Republicans. The test of the strength of the dele- gation was not made by a vote, but nearly all the speakers except MckKin- ley indicated a strong desire for peace between the parties. The greatest surprise in the Missouri delegation is the loss by E.. LL. (Liv) Morse, Republican boss in Northwestern Missouri, of the control of the delega- tion. Morse, who is a practical politician of wide experience, started out several months ago to have selected a Missouri delegation which would be for Senator Weeks. At a meeting of nearly the full dele- gation in St. Louis two weeks ago it was thought Morse would control more than 20 of the 36 delegates and that they might have as many as 25. Stifel a Weeks Man. A change in sentiment was noticeabie after Morse succeeded in ‘‘putting over” Otto Stifel for chairman of the delegn- tion. Stifelis a Weeks man. Although many members of the delegation will not say for whom they are going to vote, members who are for Justice Hughes for the nomination have made a careful canvass of the delegation. They said last night Hughes would have 27 votes on the first ballot. Among the more active of the Hughes supporters of the Missouri delegation are A. E. L. Gardner of St. Louis Coun- ty and J. A. McAnulty of Newton Coun- ty. David W. Peters of Jefferson City has announced openly that he is willing | to vote for any candidate except Weeks. “I would not dare go back home if | voted for Roosevelt or Weeks,” he said. “No matter what the facts might be, the boys at home would say I had sold out if I voted for Weeks,” John Schmoll, chairman of the Re- publican City Committee, said this after- noon that when he came here he was inclined to vote for Hughes because he thought Roosevelt would support him and the two parties could probably be united. But he added that he was not so strong for Hughes mow because he knew Roosevelt would not indorse the Supreme Court Justice. Tom Marks of Kansas City, speaking for Hughes, said that he never bought a bag of apples without taking out one and eating it. Might Vote for T. R. Before buying this Hughes bag of pres- idential apples he said “I think we should take an apple out of the bag and have a look at it, to see whether the bag contains just what we want.”’ There are a lot of Missourians here who are saying that they would be glad to vote for “Teddy” if he should be nominated.

The chairman stopped the music to recognize Senator Smoot again for a supplemental report from the Creden- tials Committee, It proposed to give votes to the six delegates from Hawaii, Porto Rica and the Philippines. It was adopted without opposition. That made the total number of votes in the conyen- tion 989, making 495 votes necessary to a nomination. Rules Report Adopted. Finally the report of the Rules Com- mittee was ready and National Com- mitteeman C. B. Warren of Michigan presented it and it was adopted. It was a unanimous report and has been pub- lished. Briefly, the rules of the conven- tion are those of the House of Repre- sentatives with certain modificationg to adapt themselves to the needs of s0 different a body. One of the rules pro- hibits a State delegation from changing its vote unless there has been an error in casting it. Heretofore delegations have been able to do so.

The report-of the Resolutions Com- mittee was the next order of busi- ness, but the chairman announced that with the arbitrary authority which goes with the gavel he would appoint former Secretary Stimson and Speaker Sweet of New York ‘to escort Chauncey M. Depew to the platform. Bowing and smiling, De- pew took his place while the dele- gates applauded, Some of the dele- gates shouted “Speech,” and Depew began. Depew Addresses Delegates. Eighty-two years old, the famous New Yorker's voice, still full and round, carried better than those of the younger men who had preceded him and he received the closest at- tention.

The mention of Elihu Root brought scattering applause and cheers. It was the first mention of the name of one of the Republican candidates. The general tone of Depew’s speech was for na- tional preparedness and the convention approved it. New Yorker Speaks Half Hour. When Depew gave signs of stopping, the crowd cried “Go on.’’ After speak- ing 17 minutes, Depew turned to the chairman,and asked if he should con- tinue: “Go ahead,” said Senator Hard- ing. ‘“‘When I turn to a pacificist,’”’ said he, resuming, ‘I turn to a leading expo- nent, my friend, Mr. Bryan, who is here in the hall." The former Secretary was in the press stand as a newspaper correspondent and sat smiling at the reference to himself and the laughter that followed. Depew spoke 30 minutes. His parting shot was that if the convention gets in trouble over any question before it the delegates should call on the elder states- men, and he was one of them. There were calls for other speakers, and after Chairman Harding had re- stored order he introduced former Speaker Cannon as “grand old Uncle Joe.’’ Cannon Without His Cigar.

WHITE SAYS Nomination of One Expected to Have Great Bear- ing on Attitude of Other, but Kansan Says Moosers Could Not Accept Jurist. By William Allen White. Progressive Leader, Editor and Author, Copyright. 1916, by George Matthews Adams.) CHICAGO, June 8.—The contest in Kansas Chicago today has developed into a 24-} hour foodtrace, not between men, but tetween conventions, If the Progressives can get Roosevelt ncminated before the Republicans get they feel that Hughes will not accept; if, on the other hand, the Republicans can get Hughes nominated before the Progressives can set Roosevelt nominated, the Republi- cans believe that Roosevelt will not ac- cept. The nomination, which every one figured, should come Saturday in both conventions, may now come Friday afternoon or night. The noisy demon- stration for Roosevelt in the Progres- sive convention yesterday revealed something more than mere claque, It revealed an unshakable purpose on the part of the Progressives to name Roose- velt. It is unthinkable that the Progressive convention should get itself in a mood to nominate Hughes, and what is more, the fight was raging at midnight in the Progressive Platform Committee to draft a plank condemning members of the 8Su- preme Court for becoming even recep- ‘ive candidates for any other office than Chief Justice. If that plank is made a part of the platform, it will serve notice Hughes nominated, | on Justice Hughes in advance that he cannot run on the Progressive ticket. It is only fair to say that the plank is being opposed bitterly by some of Col. Roosevelt's stanch friends, But the introduction of the plank and its sup- port by a considerable minority of the Piatform Committee indicates a temper against Justice Hughes which will make his nomination well-nigh tmpossible. On the other hand, the favorite sons are dying hard in the Republican con- vention. Theirs will be the tactics of delay. They will try to shift the nom- ination of a presidential candidate over until Monday. The Hughes boom is impulsive. They feel that if they can hold it off over Sunday and if, during that time, Col. Roosevelt indicates that he will accept the Progressive nomination, a statement from Justice Hughes will be forthcom- ting, forbidding the use of his name by the convention at all. Other than these facts, everything to- day from the convention ig but the froth of rumor. Rumor says that Pen- rose talked to Col. Roosevelt over the telephone. Rumor says that the Colonel] is ready to declare for Hughes. Rumor says that a coalition of the favorite sons against both Roosevelt and Hughes has been formed, with a working ma- jority of the convention. But these rumors are unimportant. The big important phase of the news today is that it is a race of an over- whelming majority in the Progressive convention against a bare majority and State. Vote.

All the tumult and the shouting in the Bull Moose convention was but a notice from the Progressives that the race was a one-heat race and that soon it would be over. As a sidelight on the issues of ‘the race it may be well to note that the keynoting in the Progressive conven- tion was punctuated by applause and that it sounded like a football match with a close score in the last quarter. While the sad, silent and respectful way the Republicans heard their key- note suggested “‘taps’’ rather than any- thing else. The gentile reader is left te consider whether a compact enthusiastic one- minded crowd can act with more celer- ity and precision than a rather vague- ly disorganized group of jealous minor- ities, without direction or purpose, en- thusiasm or vision.

There were shouts of ‘‘Good" and the delegates were moving out before the motion was for- mally carried. The recess was taken at 1:31 o'clock.

CHICAGO, June 8.—Ringing declara- tions of Americanism and for prepared- ness, military, spiritual, economic and industrial, are keynotes of the Progres- sive national platform completed today the Republican convention platform builders. The Pro- gressive platform leaders hoped to pre- gent their document to the convention today or tomorrow at the latest. The “Americanism” planks, minus di- rect reference to hyphenism, declared in vigorous terms for upholding American rights on land and sea, guarding the “honor and influence of our nation,” and maintenance of “‘the integrity of in- ternational law.”’ The platform also declares that the supreme duty of civilization is to make the war, for im every sphere. Regarding military preparedness, the platform declares for “a navy restored to at least second a standing diery—controlled by the national Gov- “Ss _. @rnment.”’ \ Regarding Mexico, the platform as- f gerts that “every resource of the Gov- ©. @rmment should be forthwith used to ‘end these conditions. ’ Other platform declarations are for “woman suffrage, regulation of industry ‘and “just distribution of its returns:;” conservation, Sie American | highways developments; a permanent -tariff commission and a_ protective of the national re-establishment merchant marine; Text of Tentative Platform, _ Following is the text of the tentative Platform draft: “This is the yea: of decision for the Mation’s future.

Must Be Strong in Defense. “The present war shows that it is the supreme duty of civilization to create !conditions which will make peace per- manent. Our country must be able and ready to take its part in that work The peace which we desire for our country is not the peace of submission and. cowardice, but the peace of jus- tice. War and its evils will not be done away with by suffering injustice to our- selves or others, nor by ‘pledging our- selves to drastic action for internation- al right, if we do not prepare the force which would sustain such action. We can perform our rightful part in pro- moting permanent international peace only by a willingness and a prepared ability to defend our own rights and the rights of other nations. We earnestly desire to keep the peace. But there are higher things that we must keep, as Washington and Lincoln kept them for us. “Failure to deal firmly with the menace of Mexican disorders has brought conditions worse than war- fare and has weakened national self- respect. Every resource of Govern- ment should be forthwith used to end those conditions and protect from outrage the lives, honor and property of American men and women in Mex- ico. “Adequate provision for the common defense has become the task of fore- most national concern. We must be ready in spirit, arms and industry. Preparation in arms requires: “A navy restored to at leats second rank in battle efficiency. “A regular army of 250,000 men, fully armed and trained, as a first line of land defense. “A system of military training ade- quate to organize with promptness, be- hind that first line of the army and navy, a citizen soldiery, supplied, armed and controlled by the National Govern- ment. “In our democracy every male citizen is charged with the duty of his country. This duty is not new. It has existed from the foundation of the Government. Under modern conditions, it cannot be performed without military training: service without training means slaugh- ter and disaster. As the nation has al- ways recognized and exercised the right to enforce compulsory military service in time of war, so should there be uni- versal military training for that service in time of peace. “We believe in preparedness for de- fense, but never for aggression. We should not sacrifice the lives of men for the glory or gain of military con- | quest. And we believe that the women % of the country who share with men the burden of the Government in times of peace and make equal sacrifice in time of war, should be given the full political right of suffrage. “Arms alone cannot maintain a na- tion. Of far greater permanent impor- tance must stand a national industry ef- ficient for the general welfare, a pros- perity justly distributed, a national life organized in all points for national ends. Four years ago this party was born of a nation’s awakened sense of these fundamental truths. In the plat- form then adopted we set forth our po- sition on public questions. We here re- affirm these declarations. They are made on national issues. “A nation to survive must stand for the principles of social and industrial justice. We have no right to expect continued loyalty from an. oppressed class. We must remove the artificial causes of the high cost of living; pre- vent the exploitation of children in in- dustry; protect the wage earner and by a properly regulated system of rural credits encourage the farmer and give the landless man opportunity to acquire land. “A country must be worth living in to be worth fighting for. Favors Protective Tariff. “To make possible social justice, to maintain our position in peace and war, we must insure business and industrial prosperity. This can be done: “By regulation of industry aimed at promoting its growth and _ prosperity and a just distribution of its returns. “By a conservation and develop- ment of our national resources for the good of all. “By the re-establishment of merchant marine. “By the development of PY system of interstate national highways. “By making a new standard of gov- ernmental efficiency through a complete civil service system, a national budget and the destruction of pork-b4rrel leg- islation. “By the creation of a permanent, export tariff commission, with a view of intelligently and scientifically ad- justing the tariff, so as to build up, rather than destroy, American in- dustry. “The protective system fs essential to our national prosperity. Tremend- ous new pressures will be thrown upon our industries after the war by the highly mobilized production of Europe. At all times conditions of competition must be equalized between our own and foreign countries. We can only get the protection we need through the use of exact and complete knowl- edge, unaffected by prejudice or politics. We can secure that knowledge at all times and when needed, only through such a commission. “The industrial issues are chiefly na- tional. The present and certain future rrake it imperative that the regulation and promotion of industry, and especial- ly of transportation and foreign trade, be national, not locai Only Federal power can work justice to capital arid labor throughout the nation. Only na- tional authority can mobilize industry for defense as the nation’s need de- mands it. “Beneath the structure of military and economic strength, must be a unified spirit of this cosmopolitan people, a deep loyalty and undivided allegiance to America, the land which has wel- comed us and our immigrant forefath- ers. Back of any adequate national preparedness in arms or indu&Stry must remain the democratic soul of an un- divided people, determined to keep America’s great traditions unfalteringly in first place. : “If in this meiting pot of a hundred our nations, the children of any fail to find our common destiny worthy of common devotion and defense, we shall confront loss of national character. “We have set forth in this piatform the plain essentials of national exist- ence with which most men agree; which any man can propose. They are not new principles. Our urgent and immediate need is for their performance. We have had ample experience with the prom- iser; with words and the bitter taste of words retracted. Issue Is One of Men. ‘‘We must find a man who not alone by words, but by past deeds, gives guarantee that he can and will make these ideals good. The issue is one of men. In the midst of world changes unparalleled in history we cannot fore- cast the problems which will confront our Government during the war and at its end. We therefore need as Pres- ident a leader who knows the nations, a man who acts. If we continue longer to stand for words as above deeds, for hopes as above facts, we shall receive and merit the fate that surely awaits the man or people who do not face the truth. “We will meet and work with any man or party who sees the nation’s need and puts forward a leader fit to meet it. We will accept no less, in plan, or in the man, and we solemnly charge upon any who place partisan politics above country the responsibility for a nation’s future, sacrificed to self- inteerst and spoils.”’ Women Before Committee, Rival woman suffrage factions ap- peared before the Progressive Reso- lutions Committee at its hearings last night. Representatives of the National Woman Suffrage Associa- tion urged a general suffrage plank; those of the Congressional] Union asked recommendation of a constitu- tional amendment. Mrs. Carrie Chap- man Catt, Dr. Jones of Iowa and Miss Conant of Nevada advocated the for- mer plan and Miss Alice Carpenter of New York, Mrs. E. I.

KEYNOTE SPEECH WITHOUT SUBJECT OR AN OCCASION, WILLIAM J. BRYAN WRITES Says Eloquence Was There, but Inspiration Was Lacking in Topic of Restoring Republicans to Power; “Preparedness Talk Used as Cloak.” By William Jennings Bryan. Written Especially for the Post- Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 8.—Senator Hardi'g’s epeech as temporary chairman was all that conditions and circumstances wopld permit. The great Webster said: **Elo- quence exists in the man, in the subject and in the occasion.’’ Eloquence had only one-third of a chance today; it haa the man. Senator Harding is an orator. committee could not have selected a bet- ter man to open such a convention as this. He is both pleasing and imposing in appearance. He has an excellent voice and a splendid delivery, and he repre- sented in his views and hopes that ele- ment of the party which is dominant in the convention. His speech possessed strength and humor and his thougnts were expressed in phrases that will be re-presented by those who lac« his kil. in rhetoric. Speech Satisfied Audience. The speech satisfied the audience, for if was just°such an audience as would like that sort of speech. He was greet- ed with enthusiasm on his appearance, his principal points were applauded en thusiastically and his conclusion brought forth another burst of enthusiasm. He may feel that he acquitted himself with credit and the convention can find great satisfaction in the fact that it got what it wanted in the way of a speech. But the subject and the occasion were lacking. The subject was a restoration of the Republican party to power, and there is no inspiration in such a subject to bring forth an epoch-making speech. The Republican party was put out of power because it had been guilty of high crimes and miscemeanors, It had con- verted popular government into a preda- tory oligarchy; it had betrayed the peo- ple and given them over to spoliation at the hands of the special interests. Fa- vor-seeking corporations had been per- mitted to take control of the instru- mentalities of government and employ them for private enrichment. The injustice finally became so rank and the swollen fortunes so conspicuous that a large portion of the Republican party revolted. More than half of the Republicans had the independence to leave the organization, and *y bolting they expressed their determination to rid the party of corporate dommation, even if it were necessary to pass *tnrough a national defeat in order to make the party free. "phe What Democracy Inherited, As a result of the division in the Re- publican ranks the Democrstic party came into power and proceeded to put into law a reform program without par- allel in the history of the country. In nddition to. facing domestic problems cf great importance; in addjtion to hav- ing to deal with abuses that ‘ind grown in size until a remedy was more or less impossible without industrial disturbance —in addition to these home embarrass- ments, the» Democratic administraiion inherited from the Republican admin- istration a Mexican situation, and was soon afterward confronted with a world war without a parallel in history. Senator Harding's subject was the at- titude of the Republican party toward the administration that had rescued the nation from Republican misrule, and kept the country at peace amid distracting turmoils on all sides How could a partisan speaker satisfy a par tisan convention without offending a universal s@nse of justice? The task was an impossible one. The delegates had gathered to plan for the country’s return to the bondage of the interests, and Senator Harding would have disappointed the delegates if he had conceded to the Democratic administration any merit whatever. He did not disappoint them. On the con- trary, he lived up to the highest re- quirements of partisanship and extolled the Republican record as flawless and pictured the Democratic record as a menace to prosperity at home and peace abroad. Preparedness Talk Criticised. His declarations on the subject of pre- paredness were sufficiently emphatic te arouse all the fears that have been assiduously cultivated by the manufac- turers of munitions, and yet were not Gefinite enough to inform the taxpay- ers of the burdens which the jingoes have in store for them. It was not, however, until he reached the tariff question that he let out all the sails. He is a believer in protec- tion for protection’s sake, and he knows that protection is the issue on which the standpat Republicans and the Pro- gressives are most nearly in agree- ment. They rival each other tn devo- tion to the theory that a tax is a bless- ing when collected through the customs house. If the subject was a chilling one for impassioned eloquence, the occasion was no more encouraging. The delegates are not here to outline any constructive work; they have planned nothing from the experience through which they have passed. They base their hopes of success upon a reunion of the two elements of the party and feel confident that this re- union can be effected without commend- ing any of the reforms accomplished by the Democratic party or pledging the Republican party to remedial legisla- tion. “Let us forget our differences,” ix the Republican siogan. But will the public forget the riot of privilege? This is the program as outlined, if it is stripped of its drapery and plainly stated. What Chief Iasue Will Be, If the platform fo be written and the ticket to be selected are in keeping with the keynote, the chief lasue before | | forms which have been secured by 20 years’ agitation are to be lost by the restoration to authority of those who by the misuse of power aroused the voters to revolt. No wonder those who are interested in the success of this program seek to di- vert attention from economic issues tv so-called preparedness. (Copyright by the Central Press Association.)

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 8, 1916, diate ST. LOUIS POST- “DISPATCH —_——_ aren ne a Se andi A BC of the Situation at Chicago, How G. O. P. Convention Is Ruled Old Guard Leaders— Penrose, Crane and Barnes Do Not Want Either Hughes or Roosevelt, but Will Take the J ustice Reluctantly if “Pie” Hungry Delegates Compel Them To. By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 8.—Two mighty forces are contending for control of the Re- publican National Convention in session here to nominate candidates for Presi- dent and Vice President of the United States and write a platform. To fully understand the convention it is neces- sary to know what these forces are. One force is designated, for conven- ience, as the “Old Guard,” or the stand- pat, high-tariff element of the party— the element which the great corporate interests of the country prefer to see in control. The other element is the Pro- gressive or radical element. The old guard is personified in the lead- ership of six or eight men, who are sel- dom seen or heard in the convention, and who never mingle with the crowd that packs the hotel lobbies and shouts itself hoarse for favorite sons or for one great commanding figure in this complex situation, Theodore Roosevelt. The mention of Roosevelt’s name in any lobby crowd or in the street cars or the conventions themselves always arouses spontaneous enthusiasm. Re- member the Progressive National Con- vention is also in session here, to do pre- cisely the thing that the Republican Na- tional Convention is to do in the matter of naming candidates, but it represents only one thing—Theodore Roosevelt— and what he stands for. Why Harmony Is Wanted, The Republican convention is cold, de- liberate; the Progressive is enthusiastic, spontaneous. The controlling factors in both conventions know that to insure any measure of party success next No- vember, the two parties must be brought together in the nomination of candidates and the making of platforms. If each party nominates tickets, every delegate to both conventions, as well as every shouter, knows well that Woodrow Wil- son will be re-elected next November. The student of the national political situation, with respect to the Republican and Progressive parties, of course, knows that the Progressive party, under the leadership of Roosevelt, sprang into being four years ago as a protest against what was then popularly known as stand-patism, the apostles of which were the “old guard.”’ Personified, the old guard {s William Barnes of New York, Boise Penrose of Pennsylvania, Murray Crane of’ Massa- chusetts.and a group of less conspicu- ous men and their sattelites. For prac- tical purposes it is necessary to speak only of Barnes, Crane and Penrose, for they are the factors which control the situation and they will name the can- didate of the Republican party, unless the Progressive element should develop enough strength to overthrow them. Penrose is boss of Pennsylvania and occupies a seat in the United States Sen- ate. Barnes is boss of New York and Crane of Massachusetts. Four years ago, in the face of a pdpular demand for Roosevelt for presi- dent, the old guard, operating through the Republican National Committee, controlled the convention and forced the nomination of Taft. Roosevelt avenged himself by creating a new party, running independently as its can- didate and polling 4,219,000 votes. It is the shadow of those 4,219,000 votes lost to the party in 1912 which is causing the old guafd to tremble today, and which is actually the strongest influnce be- hind the really remarkable boom of Justice Hughes of the United States Supreme Court. Radicals Behind Hughes. The Progressive or Rdiical element in the Republican party is behind Hughes, in the belief that he is pro- *gressive enough to induce the return of the Progressive voters to the Repub- lican party, and at the same time hold the 3,500,000 voters who cast their bal- lots for Taft four years ago. The Hughes boom is almost without tangible or visible leadership. Gov. Whitman of New York is the leading political power behind it, and Frank H. Hitchcock, former postmaster-general under Taft, himself an intensely practi- cal politician of the old guard type, is the active manager. The thing that made the Hughes boom go was the be- lief that Roosevelt would support the Supreme Court justice, and bring back with him the voters he took out of the Republican party four years ago. There is no doubt the old guard -leaders lent encouragement to the Hughes move- ment, in the beginning, in the, belief that Hughes could be used to kill off Roosevelt, who was then beginning to regain his old time popularity, and loom up as a formidable candidate for the Republican nomination. The old guard hates Roosevelt, primarily because he tion. He is looked upon as a traitor. To the regular party a bolter is the most despicable political character in ex- istence. To discourage bolting, bolters must be dealt with as traitors. For that reason the old guard would rather sac- rifice the Republican party for another four years than to nominate Roosevelt, or any candidate presumed to stand for oh ideals. In order to win back the wive vote, the old guard is will- + ‘write into its platform some of ive ideas of the Roosevelt of 1912; but it is not willing scam and it does not wish } Hughes.

As Governor of New York he put into force some progressive legis- lation, such as the abolition of race- track gambling, which other Governors, notably Folk of Missouri, had put into effect years before. The Hughes movement is presumed to represent the voice of the people calling for a progressive leader. It more nearly typifies, however, the voice of the politicians calling for a leader who can win. The Republican politician has been without Federal office for four years, without post- offices and their emoluments. The politicians particularly want to get back to the “pie counter.” They don’t care a continental whether the Presi- dent at Washington is progressive or reactionary. They want pie. In order to get pie, they are willing to take Hughes, because he is the only candi- date who appears to have any chance of winning in November. The Standpat Candidates. The other candidates, Fairbanks, Burton, Weeks, Sherman, are classi- fied as standpatters. The old guard would be eminently satisfied with any one of the group in the White House. The delegates to this convention, except those elected by primary, were elected by district conventions, con- trolled by local bosses, who are mere agents or representatives of the greater bosses. Even the primary-se- lected delegates, in many instances, were carefully hand-picked by the local bosses, who were acting for the big bosses. The bosses, that is, Crane, Penrose, Barnes, are not worrying much about the delegates, because they believe they can control enough of them to be masters of the saitua- tion. The only reason they cannot control the delegates against Hughes is that the delegates believe Hughes could be elected, and they are willing to take a chance with him. While the Republicans were crying a few months ago that they could ‘beat Wilson with anybody, they now realize that they will have to have a candidate who will appeal to the imagination of the voters. Even with Hughes and the two parties united they admit the _ situation is most critical. While the delegates are run- ning madly around packed hotel cor- ridors, expressing their views freely on the situation, the powerful group of politicians, sitting behind closed doors, and seldom seen in public, is making the program, and preparing to deliver the delegates to that pro- gram. The delegates, in the .con- vention merely ratify what the lead- ers agree upon in private conference. If the leaders finally decidé to ac- cept Hughes, he will be put over. If they decide not to accept, he probably will be defeated—tarrinfig the possi- bility that enough of the delegates will take the situation into their own hands and force his nomination. Favorite Son Candidates. There is always a group of favorite sons’ candidates before each national convention. These candidates go out in their own states and get instructed delegates. They try to use their dele- gates for trading purposes. Some of the favorite sons in this contest have a real chance of being nominated. If Hughes should be elminated, the most available favorite son might be se- lected by the big leaders and put over. For the reason that each of the more conspicuous men, like Fair- banks of Indiana, Burton of Ohio, Weeks of Massachusetts, have more or less remote chances to i win, they are trying desperately to hold their state delegations together for several ballots in the hope that dele- gates from other states will come to their aid.

(“JUST A MINUTE.,’’) A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, CHICAGO, June 8. A N expert on the political situation has about the same following here | now that a war expert his in the newspapers. It is one of those things not to be experted. The people who looked in on the song service at the Coliseum yesterday and then went up to the Auditorium and watched the Pro- gressives put on the madhouse scene from “Fear God and Take Your Own Part’ did not know what to think. The Progressives put on a Wild West show feside which the Republican convention looked like a meeting for the purpose of om oe Radium Soap For Silk Sweaters, Sport Coats, Etc.

One would suppose from the_ enthusi- asm of the one convention and the forced draft on brass bands at the other that Col. Roosevelt had the people and the old guard had nothing but a few sad memories of when it could flag the ple wagon with no more than lifting its little finger. If there is anyone in the Repub- lican ¢onvention who has a cheer in him he is carefully husbanding it against the time when it may do him some good. The Roosevelt people, upon the other hand, are prodigal of whoops, whoopees and whatéver serves to make them lvok different from the disheartened people whom the mere thought of cheering in the present unfortunate state of affairs makes sick at the stomach. No crueler difference of opinion ever divided men in their being than this. The Progressive doesn’t care what be- comes of the Republican party, and the Republican thinks that if it is dying, as seems likely, everybody ought to ro about on tip toe saying, Hush! The doctor is in Oyster Bay. Whether he will do anything is to be doubted. He owes the family some consideration, of which he is not itnsensible, but if the patient is willing to meet his maker without thought of repentance, as ap- pears to be the case, the doctor car- not see that coming to his rescue would be worth a hard buggy ride in the night.

The reason why the humors of this situation pervade the city to such a degree is that there are two kinds of Republicans here—Fors and Againsts. The Fors are all for the Colonel. The Againsts are for nobody. If they nomi- nate Hughes it will not be because they are for him, but because they are against the Colonel. They have tried out everybody, and they are against them all. They are against the Colonel most. Vas furnish all the flowers necessary. || Ay DELEGATE FROM KENTUCKY. CHAIRMAN HILLES OF THE REPUBLICAN: NATIONAL COMMITTEE but they are against everybody to some extent. They are the Againsts. If ever a convention was all flagged up and did not know where to go, tis one at the Coliseum is. The Hughes people say they will win, but nobody is for Hughes hard. Enthusiasm for him is out of the question. The Roosevelt people have taken that out of every- body. Different groups ‘have felt at times that they were for some one, but after witnessing one of the Roosevelt demonstrations they have concluded that they are not. One could amuse one’s self all day following the Roose- velt people around and watching this 101 Ranch stuff. Whether one likes the inspiration of their amazing infatuation or not, one must say this—they are for him heart, soul and howl. When they decide to cheer they take air carefully, shake out their chest muscles, lay their heads back in a comfortable place between their shoulder blades, and cheer. It is not a mere expulsion of air through the esophagus in a quick, swift blast, but' a full-toned and deep-chested vol- ume of sound that rises with the W, PERKINS, THE ROOS VELT ANGEL .

The Roosevelt following is one of the phenomena of our times. These men don’t care who laughs at or reviles them. tnd are the Fors. In the philosophy of these people the Hineup for the campaign is aw good as made. It will consist of the Prepar- adists led by Ru»>sevelt, the Pussyfoots led by Hughes, and the Pacifists led by Wilson. We shail all stand at last at the Sign of tne Colonel, the Sign of the Cat or the Sizn of the Dove. There are two states at the bottom of this thing. They are California and Kansas. Without those two hotbeds of revolt the Progressive ccnvention would have bolted the Colonel two days ago and have united with the Republicans on some candidate with whom they could stand on common ground. All hope of that has now v2en destroyed. The great 7 TWOMEN WIL NOT Defeat in lowa Causes Post- * ponement of Submission of Amendment for Time. The Missouri Equal Suffrage League will not submit a suffrage amendment — to the Missouri voters in November, ow- — ing to the defeat Monday by lowa voters of a similar constitutional amend- ment, according to Miss Alma Sasse of McPherson avenue, secretary in charge of suffrage headquarters, 1006 Locust street. The suffragists several months ago entered into an agreement with the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, — providing that the suffragists would not — submit their proposed amendment if the — Iowa election went against them. Miss Sasse stated that the suffragiste will concentrate their attention upon educating Missourians in the need of equal suffrage and will submit the amendment a year or so later. In the meanwhile, they are actively working to place a suffrage plank in the Democratic National platform. The suffragist headquarters yesterday was presented with a donkey to be used in their advertising campaign during convention week. Yesterday he Was christened “Democratic Plank” and decorated with ribbons.

Was it amendment is before Congress. The Your If that amendment is not passed we represen- SS tatives of 3,000,000 voters propose to hold you personally responsible. I am not sure that it was the votes the women represent that made the men go away so rueful; I rather think it was the discovery that these women know how to play the political game— like men—and with a certain steel-like implacability, which belongs only to women. We are getting what we are in for, women politicians—the inevitable re- sult of women voters—but the joke is on the men so far. The pathos and the tragedy is with the women. For in another theater of Chicago has been sitting through the stirring organization of the National Woman's Party, an equally large, equally able body of women. They are the members of an association which in the rudiments at least, was flourishing before some of the leaders of the new party were born—the National American Woman's Suffrage Association. It has been largely through the work of the members of this association that the women of the new party have their voting power, and these women do not “believe in pushing suffrage by a na- tional amendment. They believe in fol- lowing the road by which it has been obtained in the 11 suffrage states, the methods which have given this very week so great a vote in Iowa. Woman’s Party Called Political Blackmail. They see a woman’s party as a form of sex antagonism: they call it political blackmail and declare that women can- not afford to sully their new-found power by questionable methods. They call upon their sense of loyalty, both in the women in the association who have given them their support and to the men in the various states who have been their backers. How can we ask Republicans in a state fighting for suf- frage for their votes if you are combin- ingg against Republicans in another state which has suffrage? The tragedy seems to be to center in one of the finest and ablest figures among the public women of this coun- try—Dr. Anna B. Shaw. She, more than any other women, has taken the place of Susan B. Anthony. Somehow she has been able to preserve more humor and more real human understanding than most lifelong campaigners, men or wom- en. She is one of the best women speak- ers in the land. She is valiant and quick-witted and noble—42 years of her life she has given to suffrage. She has what the youngsters of the new party, for the most part have not—wisdom and knowledge. She has learned that the surest way is not always the quickest. She looks at the effort to secure the amendment by political union as a short way bound to be the longest. And she, the leader crowned, powerful, full of experience, sees youth taking its bit in its teeth and running over a precipice. It is a fateful deci- sion, but it is the inevitable logic of votes for women. Votes means politics, the power to do what you think best. Dr. Shaw never thinks like any leader that has worked for 42 years in any cause. It is this division that is the tragedy to the observer, this crystal- lization of youth, this lining up of East and West, for the new woman’s party comes out of the West. It is a party of women with votes. The National Wom- an's Suffrage Association of the East is a group still to feel its fingers tin- gling over a vote, its blood stirred by a call to a political battle. The new wom- an’s party has this association to reck- on with when it comes to actual work. i —_ = —— ee ee WILL TRANSPLANT TREES TO CHECK FLYING GOLF BALLS Cunliff Believes This Pian Will Rem- edy Condition Complaned of at Municipal Links.

A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. CHICAGO, June &. FE feminine vanity, physicial disabili- ty, insincerity and instability of purpose have been held against women as reasons for their unfitness to vote, right valiantly were these charges disputed yesterday “before a goodly number of the men in power by 5000 women marching afoot in such a storm as only this city by the lake is capable of visiting upon a nation’s representatives. Under leaden skies, over flooded pavements, with a driving wind beating the rain upon them, they battled the elements to prove a purpose. Tattered banners, faded streamers, bedraggled petticoats, umbrellas turn- ing inside out, musical instruments wheezing and whining, gay uniforms and costumes mantlei by nondescript coverings, did their best to render ludi- crous and grotesque what had been in- tended as a beautiful and impressive spectacle. But, who knows but that a more convincing impression was pro-| duced than any that could have been planned by human devices? Certain it is that what the audience crowding the sheltered windows and doorways lost in numbers it made up in noisy acclamation, for continuous ap- plause greeted the marchers all the way. In some cases the impression seemed too solemn for cheering. I woe grave men bare their heads in silent respect and caught a glimpse of a group | of girls in a beauty parlor weeping—! who looked like the type that would have come to scoff at an ordinary suf- frawe parade. Nor did the elements in all their ferocity succeed in obliterating all the planned effects. The white and yellow of Mrs. Kellogg “airbanks, grand marshal and first marcher to come into view, was some- what faded and her white shoes oozed water as she walked, but she almost pranced to keep her balance and that of the huge silk flag she carried. It hap- pened that the oilskin coat she wore ever a wonderful costume was yellow, the suffrage color, and not unbecoming — a ee ee ee PERSONALS Mr. Frank Bennett, 239 So. State St., No. Adams, Mass., says that while taking Father John’s Medicine he gained fifteen pounds in weight. Mrs. T. F. Gaines of 921 So. Second St., Cedar Rapids, Ia., says that she gives Father John’s Medicine to her children and it keeps them well and io her tall, statuesque blonde beauty. The plan to have a large American flag upon which rested the petition tor a ¢uf- frage plank, embossed on vellum, borne by four women from the four eorners of the United States, was carried wut. Wee Baby Elephant Excites Sympathy. A wee baby elephant decorated with g. ©. p. banners, and shivering in the cold, excited sympathy just as apy ealing as the mirth it was intended to provoke. Almost every state in the Union. was represented, but the delegations had to be recognized by some distinctive cos- {ume as their banners were whipped and furled by the wind. New Yerk had a delegation of 40; Wisconsin, 90. The lIli- nois and Chicago representation sumed over an hour in passing. One in- scription on a banner still intact was: ‘lor the safety of the nation, Let the women have the vote, For the hand that rocks the cradie Will never rock the boat." “We congratulat@ the Sioux,’’ a legend remindful of the franchise recently griunted to Indians, was flaunted by the delegation from Iowa. Missouri's delegation was 16 in num- ber. St. Louis was represented by Mrs. George Gellhorn, Mrs. W. C. Fordyce, Mrs. B. F. Burch and Mrs. Fred Taus- sig, carrying yellow parasols advertis- ing the yellow lane. Mrs. J. R. Weighty, new State chairman, and Mrs. Walter McNab Miller, retiring president, also were among the drenched, but unsub- dued marchers. Nobody knows ag yet if this trying effort will have any sub- stantial effect upon the Republican Platform Committee, which granted a hearing to all sides of the suffrage: question at the end of the parade. Mrs. Harriott Stanton Blatch, whose elo- quence has been pitted against that of men orators several times in the past three days with admittedly vanquishing effect, seemed more than ever inspired as she made her appeal for the con- stitutional amendment. Pointing her finger at the dignified and scholarly Henry Cabot Lodge, chairman of the Resolutions Committee. she said: “Do you ask us to continue to stand upon the street corner asking of every passing man our liberty?’ Request for Suffrage Plank Presented. Carrie Chapman Catt, Grace Wilbur Trout and Abbie E. Krebs presented the national association request for a suffrage plank. Miss Anne Martin, Sara card Field an4 Miss Mabel Vernon made the Congressional Union demand, not for a plank, but for immediate action by the Republicans now in Congress on a constitutional amendment. The words “‘request’’ and ‘‘demand” describe the sole difference between the divided suffrage factions. Mra. J. L. George spoke on behalf of the antis. The whole day was a teary one for the nationals, and their meeting, premature- lv scheduled as a ‘‘victory session.’’ was turned into one of mourning at the news from lowa. Two delegates straight from the campaign of defeat betrayed in trembling hands and agli- ceon- tated voice, as they explained from the | stage the cause of failure, the effects of nervous strain. Mrs. E..H. Deaviitt of Oskaloosa, daughter of former Gov. Llewellyan of s«ansas, attributed the defeat partly to advocacy by a Demo- cratic candidate for Governor who had no chance. circularized a letter him we have lost ground,’ ghe said. ‘But we are not without hope,”’ she ended. ‘Iowa ranks first in literacy, first in the production of corn first in the production of hogs. Some day we women hope with the franchise, to produce as good babies as the men now produce hogs.”’ Mrs. Catt, in an I-told-you-so vein, implied that Iowa women had been too circumspect in their methods. “You cannot expect to reach the vo- ters in fine parlors and halls,’’ she said. “You have got to get out on the soap box.’’ So affectingly did she speak that there was not a dry eve in the house and many women were sobbing audibly. She called upon the women for a pledge of one-tenth of their time to ¥ “Ever since we written for us by the and a large majority stood up.

RTS RINEHART'S OF OPENING P CONVENTION Finds Harding’s Keynote Largely Thunder and Platitudes — Penrose Tells Her Steam Roller Is Not in Chicago. OW is the time for all good game. So when a youth with iad 4 war with Senator Boies Penrose. suffrage Parade went by outside. More men came and went. by outside and I waited. At last I was admitted to the presence Senator Penrose said: ‘““‘The Republicans are working entirely in harmony. Prac- tically the same men who worked cdur- ing the convention of 1912 are working now. No steam roller is being used; no methods but open ones. We have no ‘dea who the candidate will be. We ex- rect to know before midnight Saturday night. The platform is not ready. But it will certainly contain mention of pre- paredness and a protective tariff.’’ Having received this information, ![ waited to see Senator Oliver. He said: ‘‘The platform is not ready. But it will certainly contain. mention of preparedness and a. protective tariff. The Republicans are working entirely in narmony. Practically the same men who worked during the convention of 1912 are working now. No steam roller is being used; no methods but open ones. We have nc idea who the candidate will be. We expect to know before midnight Saturday night.’ Later on I talked with other dele- gates, men who are supposed to know the secrets of the situation. One of these men drew me into a cor- ner and closed the door. Then he whis- ered: “Practically the same men who worked during the convention of 1912 are working now. No steam roller is being used. No methods’ but open ones. We have no idea who the candidate will be. We expect to know before midnight* Saturday night. The Repub- licans are working entirely in har- mony.”’ Confused by these differing but au- thoritative statements, I finally gave from what these men have said we may at least gather that harmony prevails. A certain heaviness hung over the opening session of the Republican con- vention. Perhaps it was the weather, which continues atrocious. Perhaps ‘t is because a certain amount of work must be done before the real business commences. Perhaps it is because the enthusiasm of the conventions is a cu- mulative ching, arranged to cover a cer. tain period, and to increase with ever day. Something Inspiring, Even in Wet Crowd. There is something rather inspiring I had waited a long time for Senator Penrose. It rained and I waited. The liberty bell and more suffragists went up, and sought no more interviews. ~_ By Mary Roberts Rinehart. Noted Novelist and Short Story Writer. (Copyright, 1916, by Mary Roberts Rinehart.) CHICAGO, June 8. men—’’ | am new to the newspaper a fixed glare and an intense manner follows me up demanding material for the: wires it makes-me nervous. Yesterday, however, I succeeded in obtaining three interviews. The first Men came and went, the are more imposing in the mass than in- dividually. And it is not very often that we gather together from the utter- most parts of the country for anything more serious than a football game. A great hall, hung with golden yel- low, its balconies festooned with flags; three tiers of spectators closely packed around its walls; high platform at one end, flanked by the press boxes, .and. between the press boxes. runing out from the main plat- form, a speakers stand—that was the Coliseum ready tor business. On a table for the first few minutes stood a tall vase of American beauty roses, But before long an unesthetic gentle- man puts it on the flow. The gavel called the convention to order with three tremendous raps. The main floor, which was filled with dele- gates, settled down to attention. The press boxes, which were filled with cynics also settled down. Veteran newspaper men filled the press boxes, men of many. battles, poli- tical and otherwise: -They looked in- terested or bored. as their pose might be, but one and all they looked Intelli- gent, keen and humorous. They knew every one. They knew what most of the delegates stood for. They knew as well as any in the hall knew, what the convention would do. I sat in the press box. But as I was among these men, but not of them, I may write of them. Next to me an artist was sketching heads. He drew the Governor of Ohio, who was chew- ing gum at the time; he drew Medill McCormick, lean and Irish in type. and looking - extremely weary. He drew Boies Penrose’s »road, heavy back and Brumbaugh of Pennsylvania, wide of face and narrow of head, with gray hair parted in the center and shaggy gray eyebrows. Even before the prayer we had our pictures taken. ‘Iwo men with cameras stood on a press desk behind me. One of them was not quite ready when the flash came and what he said I shafi not repeat. ’ It is odd, the way We must have our pictures taken. Yesterday, during a meeting where Civers patriotic gerntle- men sang national songs, and gave me a lump in my throat, a wild-eyed pho- tographer with «a camera planted an elbow in my side, vaulted a chair and rushed madly forward to where the in a crowd, even in a wet bedraggled and slightly disspirited crowd.

From the press box it looked orderly ond tidy, delegates ar- ranged in neat bunches sitting under the standards of their states. Behind them were ihe alternates similarly grouped. I never see « crowd of men together that I do not recall that picture of Charles Dana Givson of a lot of men of different types standing in a row. Underneath it said: “Never mind: every one of them is somebody's darling.’’ Bearing this in mind, over. It is strange how little men from dif- ferent parts of the country differ in appearance, especially witnout their hats. Montana and Pennsylvania, Ala- bama and Connecticut, New York—any man, any delegate, might have come from any state. With this difference, perhaps, that the New England men had in some ways rather the advantage. The Massachusetts delegation, for in- stance, had some of the thinking types, but they looked conservative. New York, Pennsylvania delegations, all over the hall, showed prosperous, sleek types, men with corporation faces, many of them; few fine faces, but many strong ones. Average Americans, I should say, hairless heads predominating, not par- ticularly idealistic, not annoyingly pa- triotic. But good, solid citi-ens never- theless, to be trusted to do the safe thing politically. The dominant figure was unquestion- abiy Senator Harding. The delegates are saying that he made a great speech. I do not consider it a great speech. But it was a good one. He reiterated many platitudes; he stole some of Theodore Roosevelt’s thunder and both platitudes and thunder were rapturously applaud- ed. Here and there he said a statesmanly thing which passed apparently unno- ticed or received timid recognition. It is unfortunate that such a speech will be recalled, not in its general trend probably, but by one or two of those catch phrases which the Americans have a habit of picking up and remem- bering. ‘“‘Watchful Waiting and Wobbling Warfare.”’ His mention of the Democratic “watchful waiting and wobbling war- fare” is one. That the Democrats “first coddled Villa.as a patriot and then chased him as a bandit” is an- other. ————— 77 Another Lecture on “Killing” ~ ‘ to Satisfy the Public The inclement pp ee eee ee > weather of last (| a Delicious Chocolate Pecan Layer Cake —the Regular 50c Size— Special in Our Bake Shop Tomorrow at 40c ene ) _ ———- - ———————n ee nn ee ee eee ee ee OLIVE —- LOCUST — NINTH — TENTH ee = Seu 6 ow & Tickets on Sale Here for 20 OR ALOT ED I AEE IEEE LA BERS AOE & : “As You Like It,” Now and Establigied in 1850 The Bes!

THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 8, 1916. _ PRESIDENT HAS BOUT COMPLETED PLATFORM DRAFT WASHINGTON. June 8.—President Wilson today virtually had completed a draft of the platform to be submitted to™he Democratic National Committee. The principal plank, it is said, will con- sist of a declaration of the adminis- cration’s success in guarding the honor and interests of the United States and at the same time keeping the nation at peace. Specifically the foreign office sections of the platform probably will praise these acts of the administration: Protection of the neutral rights of the United States and other nations. Refusal to allow the country to be drawn into the Mexican internal troubles and prompt dispatch of troops in pursuit of raiders on American ter- ritory. Maintenance of the Monroe Doctrine and fostering good relations with other nations of the Western Hemipshere. Support“ of the policy of ‘America first.” The planks on Democratic affairs will refer particualrly to the merits of the Underwood tariff act, the Federal re- serve act and: the adminstration’s pre- paredness plans. The president has utilized as a basis for this work features of the Missouri State Democratic platform, which was prepared under the _ direction of the White House.

Record Approval Plan SHORTAGE OF ARENA SEATS FOR DELEGATES HERE Chairman of Subcommittee Finds Many States Have Sent Double Allotted Number. Bruce Kremer, chairman of the Sub- committee on Arrangements for the Democratic national convention, was confronted with a familiar problem to- day, when it became apparent there would not be arena seats in the Coli- seum for all the delegates accredited to ‘the convention. Kremer tried to puzzle it out at the committee’s headquarters at the Hotel Jefferson. The shortage of seats is due to the fact that several states elected twice the number of delegates to which they were entitled and gave each dele- gate one-half a vote in the convention. Thus Oklahoma, which has 21 votes, will send 42 delegates to the convention. There also will be 42 alternates. 24 Senators to Be Here. At least 24 United States Senators will be in St. Louis for the conven- tion. Charles P. Higgins, sergeant- at-arms of the United States Senate and formerly Excise Commissioner of St. Louis, arrived yesterday and com- pleted arrangements for quartering the senatorial party.

TWO INDICTED ON CHARGE OF PUTTING IN FALSE CLAIMS Cattleman and Lawyer Allexed Have Obtained Big Sums From Railroads, Hal Mangum, a catttle and shipper of La Pryor, Tex.., and Levi Old, an attorney of Uvalde, Tex., were indicted by the Federal grand jury here today on charges of having placed false claims against railroads operating in Texas, in the shipping of cattle inter- state from Texas to St. Louis and other points. A second charge of conspiracy to defraud was found against Old. It is aged that Mangum and Old would load cars with cattle and then put in claims for alleged delays, the bruising of stock in-transit and failure of the roads to deliver in time to escape decline in market values. Claims were made by them against the South- Pacific, International & Great Northern, Iron Mountain, San Antonio, l'valde & Gulf and the M., K. & T. railroads. It is clamed by railroad at- torneys that Olds has. been making from $5000 to $6000 a vear in the transac- tions. Mangum is said to be the son-in-law of Ike T.

MANY BRITISH SOLDIERS TO TAKE HOME FRENCH WIVES “Tommy Atkins” Finds Difference in Language Accessory to Romance, Rather Than Barrier. BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, June 8.—One of the results of the presence of the British army in that a good many British take French wives home with them. The difference in language, far from being a barrier, 1s an accessory. Tommy Atkins teaches Miss France En- glish, and Miss France teaches Tommy Atkins French. There is plenty of leisure for court- ship. Frequently British battalions re- main in the same section for months at a time. When the men have done their shift in the trenches they return, ‘in rest,”’ as the saying is, to the same villages where they were before. Usually they have quarters in the French houses. In a senso they become members of the community. France is OaKes Candy Sale Fri. & Sat.. 19¢ Lh. Molasses Honey Nougat, Cocoanut Fritters, Choc. Fruit Cake. 612 Locust St. Assessment Increased.

This issue, in denominations of $100, $500 and $1000, comprising 600 separ- ate bonds, has been printed and the bonds were signed last night by Pre- siding Judge Wiethaupt of the County Court. It is-understood that the State Auditor will refuse to register the bonds on the ground that they have not been prepared in accordance with the statutes. The mandamus suit will seek to compel their registration and is expected to result in an interpreta- tion by the Supreme Court of the clouded points of the new State stat- ute under which the bond issue was authorized. Interpretation Is Important. An intrepretation of this statute will be watched with interest by oth- er counties which have followed the lead of St. Louis County in voting road bonds and by other counties con- templating such bond issues. The legal points raised, Prosecuting Attorney Ralph said, do not affect the validity of the bonds but only the com- mercial value. One point is the denomi- nation of the bonds. The statute seems to provide that one half of the issue shall be in bonds of $100 denomination. Ralph points out that if it is necessary to issue $1,500,000 of the road bonds in denominations of $100 the premiums will be much less than if the greater part of the issue is in denominations of $500 and $1000. He wants the statute so con- strued that one-half of the first issue of $520,000 in $100 denominations will fill the legal requirement. He estimates that this would mean a gain of $100,000 in premiums. ' Lf SIXTH AND ST.

GREAT SUBWAY SALE COLONIAL PUMPS PARIS PUMPS Another point is the duration of the bonds. Under the law they can- not run for more than 20 years, but they can be redeemed at any time within that period. Question of Redemption. Ralph holds that they would be more .desirable as investments, es- pecially for estates and trusts, if they could be issued for a certain number of years and could not be redeemed before that time. He will attempt to have the Supreme Court fix a sched- ule of the length of term for which the bonds can be issued without be- ing subject to redemption in the meanwhile.

Ralph says he will- try to get the Court to advance the casé on its docket so the legal questions may be deter- mined as soon as possible in order to enable work to be started on the roads. County Highway Engineer Elbring said today no contracts have been let, but that the county is in a position to sign contracts as soon as the questions are decided. If the issue that has been pre- pared is ordered registered by the Court, those bonds can be offered for sale immediately. Meanwhile Elbring and Special Engin- eer James C.

INDICTMENTS BROUGHT IN BY U. 0. GRAND JURY The Federal grand jury made its final report to Judge Dyer today and re- turned 36 indictments. Among the 16 made public was one against Addie E. O’Hara on a charge of using the mails to defraud and one against J. Kervin Ross on a charge of stealing from the mails. Miss O’Hara conducted a school for detectives in the Chemical Building. She was arrested a few weeks ago after one of her students complained at police “| headquarters. Ross was formerly a clerk at the downtown postoffice. He was arrested after postoffice inspectors watched him and declared they caught him opening special delivery letters and extracting money.

Announcement was made at Washington University exercises this morning the commencement that Edward Mallinckrodt of 16 Westmoreland place and John T. Milliken nue, wealthy manufacturing of 1150 Belt ave- chemists, had each donated $166,000 to the Wash- ington University medical school. Robert S. Brookings, president of the university corporation, told a Post-Dis- patch reporter that these donations en- able the medical school to receive $664,- 000 from the General Education Board founded by John D. Rockefeller. The total donations make a million dollars, which will be available for school work at the opening of the new term next fall. “T am now going around the streets looking for another man with $166, in his pocket,’’ Brookings said. 000 “T will show him how he can do more good for humanity than in any other way.”’ Brookings said the third donation of $166,000 was needed so that the medical schoo] could come intg the entire million dollars which the Rockefeller board had promised to give the school, contingent upon the school itself raising $600,000. Mallinckrodt’s $166,000 and $332,000 from the Rockefeller Board, a total of $498,000, will be used for research and experi- ments in pediatrics, that branch of the ph aks —— ~*~ \ | 509 Washington Av. a v4 i. eae »| Sale of of oo) Genuine \ 508 Washington Av. id ae@dt rage abe ‘(PALM BEACH ‘ great deal more. | =, Three of the Eaeact Models at $7.50 4 a2 ee 3 seas * 2 iis That Regularly Sold for $1.00 to $1.95 We have taken from our regular stocks a num- ber of discontinued patterns, also: depleted lines, comprising several hundred Waists that sold from $1.00 to $1.95, and will offer them iu one lot tomorrow at 65c.

Milliken’s $166,000 and the $332,000 from the Roekefeller Board, which also is a total of $498,000, will be available next fall for research and experiments in medicine. ; Brookings stated that the third danor ' of $166,000, for whom he is now search- ing, would enable the surgical depart- ment of the medical, school to have $498,- 000 with which to conduct research work. He said, at the commencement exercises, that he hoped to have such a donation within a year. Not a Prophet. When a reporter called at Milliken's office for a statement about his donation Milliken simply said: “The gift speas for itself."" When asked if he contem- plated making further donations of simi- lar character, he said: ‘I’m no prophet.”’ Milliken recently announced that he had made about $,000,000 profit in an Oklahoma oil deal. Both he and Mal- linckrodt, as manufacturing chemists, are reported to have made large sums: as a result of the high prices to which! chemicals have soared as a result the war. Mallinckrodt, told a reporter ' | Ot | at the Noonday Club, that his gift of $166,000 to the medical school was because of his interest in children’s diseases and his desire to aid in research work in pediatrics. He said that his wife, be- fore her death in 1913, had given much attention to the welfare of the Chil- dren's Hospital, part of the Washing- ton University group. Mallinckrodt last January gave $100,000 to the endowment fund of the Children’s Hospital, mak- ing total donations of $266,000 by him in six months. The Rockefeller Board’s announcement of its conditional million-dollar gift to the Washington University Medical School was made in 1914, at fhe same time that it gave over $1,750,000 simi- larly to endow Johns Hopkins Univer- sity at Baltimore. At the time members stated that Washington University, in medicine, would henceforth take rank with Johns Hopkins and that the Unit- ed States would have two institutions of the first rank and equal to the great sur- gical and medical institutes of Europe. The specific purpose of the Rockefeller donation was to create full time teach- ing and research departments in medi- cine, surgery and pediatrics. Buildings Cost $2,750,000. The Rockefeller board made a provis- ion that the teachers procured by the gifts, which were announced today, shall be free to give any medical or surgical service of any kind, but must do so without personal gain and practically their entire time must be devoted to hospital work, teaching and research. The medical department of Washing- ton University is now quartered in a group of magnificent buildings on King’s highway and on Euclid avenue opposite Forest Park. The buildings, which con- sist of Barnes Hospital, the Children’s Hospital, a nurses’ training school, and school structures, cost about $2,750,000, of which $1,000,000 was contributed by Pres- ident Brookings, who, with the late Samuel Cupples, has contributed mil- lions of dollars to the university. The endowment of the medical school and Barnes Hospital, including the pres- ent Rockefeller - Milliken - Mallickrodt gifts, but without reckoning the cost of the buildings, now totals $5,000,000. A large part of this is the endowment cre- ated from $1,000,000 which Robert Barnes bequeathed, a quarter of a century agc, toward the erection of the hospital which now bears his name. Acting Chancellor Hall conferred the degree of Doctor of Laws on Theobald Smith, director of the anima! experi- ment station of the Rockefeller Insti- tue for Medical Research in New York. He said Dr. Smith was one of the great- est living pathologists, being the discov- erer of the fact that bloodsucking in- sects transmit disease. of the board tee’! ters of influence each one, to try to di- minish of human life.”’ Bishop Tuttle, men and women and men and women, said he did not believe | that they, in facing life, are ‘“‘vain and conceited, puffed and swollen.” lege Diamonds and watches as low as Fi a month. ney Entertainment to Aid Irish.

The commencement exercises, held in Francis gymnasium, were preceded by the academic procession from Graham Memorial Chapel. The commencement address was delivered by Bishop Tuttle. His subject was ‘‘Antiseptics.’’ The de- grees were conferred by Dr. Frederick A. Hall, acting Chancellor. Bishop Tuttle, in hie address, said: “A look at war-stricken Europe and 4 thought ‘df thd ‘Oriental multitudes of Asia almost force: upon us the conviction that God’s providence is entrusting the future destinies of the human race to our’ own’ America. “AR? what bravery of self-government and. self-restraint to give us patience, and what bravery of self-forgetfulness and self-sacrifice to give us righteous leadership are’ néeded for the discharge of such assigned duty. “Ownership pf the Isthmian Canal, the growing ‘power’ ‘antl’ wealth of South American. peoples, and the claims and aims and complications of, the Monroe Doctrine, all warn us that a vast more of opportunity is coming for us to do we. should Jike to do.

RATE HALF ENT MORE Company Announces Number of. Users Is 70,000; Further Re- duction at 75,000 Mark, A reduction of a half a cent a kilo- watt hour fn the rates for electric cur- rent was announced today by the Union Electric Co., to become effective Satur- day. This reduction is due to a gain of more than 5000 customers since the last reduction of a half a cent, last De- cember, bringing the total number of customers at present to more than 70,000. It had been announced that this re- duction would be made when the num- ber of customers reached 70,000, and the further announcement was made today by A, C. Einstein, general mamager of the Union Electric, that another reduc- tion of a half a cent will be made when the number of customers reaches 75.000. The first step in the rate schedule is. noW reduced from 9 cents to 8% cents, the second from 6% to 6 and the third from 3% to 3 cents. The first step applies to the first four kilowatt hours used for each room in a month; the sec- ond step applies to the next three kilo- watt hours in the third to all excess over seven kilowatt hours. For the purpose of calculating these rates three bedrooms are exempted from the room count. The minimum charge to residence customers remains at 650 cents a month, but no deposit is re- quired. GARDNER OPPOSES ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE PLAN FOR DRY STATE Says He Believes Taking Right From People te Vote on Subject to Be Unconstitutional. Paragraphs from Fred D. Gard- ner’s speech in Springfield, Mo., are being quoted by his supporters here. in his campaign for Governor, as showing his attizude on the enforce- ment of dramshop laws, and on the demands of the Anti-Saloon League. The league's present purpose is to get statutory Statewide prohibition voted by the next Legislature, witi> a “peace, health and safety’ clause attached to keep it- from being sub- mitted to the voters of the State through the referendum. Gardner, speaking at railroad shops, told of the made of him by Supt. Shup, of the Anti-Saloon League, whether he, if elected Governor, would sign a prohi- bition bill- with this emergency clause attached, ‘Gardner answered this in- quiry in his speech, saying he would not in any way Obstruct a movement for the submission™of a prohibition amendment to the voters, and that he would enforce a law so enacted. But he said he would not commit himself secretly to a program which, in hjs opinion, would violate’ the spirit of the initiative and referen- dum clause of the State constitu- tion. The “peace, health and safety” clause, he argued, was intended to be used only where a real emergency might exist, and where irreparable damage would be done if a legisla- tive enactment were suspended by the use of the referenduin. In the case of a prohibition law, he neld, the use of this emergency provision would not be justified. Gardner said it would be a dan- gerous thing for a Governor, “even under the direction of so sincere an organization as the Anti-Saloon League, to attempt to deny the peo- ple their constitutional rights.” He termed the proposal “unfair, unwise and unconstitutional.” He added that he believed in the rigid enforcement, of existing dramshop laws, and would so enforce them if elected, and that he would not make political use oft tle excise departments tn cities, or of police departments or State insti- tutions.

LUTSK IN VOLEYNIA TRIANGLE OF FORTS Several Brigades of Austrians Reported Taken; Their Line Said to Have Been Broken and Withdrawn Nearly 20 Miles. Line of Muscovite Offensive in the Southwest Extends From Brody to Vicinity of Czernowitz. Paris Admits Loss of Fort Vaux and London That Germans Have Driven British Out of Hooge. LONDON, June &8.—It was an- nounced officially today that restric- tive measures affecting “Greek ports were being considered to prevent supplies from reaching the enemy.” LONDON, June §.—The Austrians have evacuated Lutsk, one of the Volhynian triangle fortrosses, according to in- formation received at the Russian em- bassy in Rome, says the Central News dispatch from that city. Several brigades of Austrians are re- ported in the advices to have been cap- tured with the fortress. It is stated that the Austrian lines have been broken in Volhynia and that they have been withdrawn nearly twen- ty miles throughout the Lutsk sector. Yesterday's Petrograd statement, apparently issued before the fall of Lutsk, told of the capture of a total of 40,000 prisoners in the new Rus- sian offensive. t From Russian Offensive Extends Brody to Near Czernowitz. BERLIN, June 8.—One of the fiercest battles of the war in the East !s raging against the Austrian lines, on a front extending approximately 200 miles from the westward of Brody (in east Galicia, close to the Russian frontier) to near Czernowitz in (This is the Arst intimation as to the general front along which the Russians have attack- ed, the Russian reports. only saying, “between the Pripet and the Rumanian frontier.’’) The attack is thus entirely within Austrian territory, and at the ex- treme southern wing of the line. The greater part of the Russian armies appear to be massed there. The Russian artillery fire is described as be- ing overwhelming. With their front trenches wiped out by the Russian artillery fire, the Austro- Hungarians Tuesday fell back three miles near Okna, north of Czernowitz, but are reported to have retaken part of the lost ground. PARIS CONCEDES LOSS OF FORT VAUX ~ TO THE GERMANS meee Official Announcement Says the Stronghold Had Been Re- duced to Heap of Ruins. PARIS, June &8.—Heavy fighting con- tinues in the vicinity of Fort Vaux, northeast of Verdun. The War Office report today says French troops stil! occupy the outskirts of the fort as well as trenches to the right and left of the works. The loss of the fort itself, of which an intimation was given in last night's re- port, is conceded. The announcement Says the fort was abandoned by the gar- Fison after it had been reduced to a heap of ruins by an incessant bombard- ment of seven days. German attacks on the adjacent positions thus far have been unsuccessfu!. West of the Meuse intermittent can- nonading was carried on last night. Fert Vaux Stormed June 2 and Cap- tured Tuesday.

BERLIN, via London, June 8—An of- ficial statement issued today gives the total loss of the German high sea forces in the battle off Jutland and up to the present time as one battle cruiser, one ship of the line of older construction, and four small cruisers. The statement says: “Of these losses the battleship Pom- mern was launched in 1905. The loss of the cruisers Wiesbaden, Elbing, Frauen- job and five torpedo boats-has already been reported in official statements. For military reasons we refrained until now from making public the loss of the battle” cruiser Lutzow and the cruiser Rostock.”’ The destruction of the Lutzow was claimed in the first statement issued by the British Admiralty. At the same time the British claimed that two Ger- man battleships had been sent to the bottom and six destroyers as well as the ramming of a submarine. The British, however, only claimed to have sunk one German light cruiser. This is the first mention of the loss of the cruiser Rostock, which was a small warship of 4900 tons and was built in 1912. She carried 373 men and was armed with 12 four-inch guns and two torpedo tubes. The Lutzow was a 2f,000-ton dreadnought battle cruiser. Her destruction had previously been claimed by British naval officers. i ee BATTLESHIPS OF BRITAIN ROUTED BERLIN ASSERTS By KARL H. VON WIEGAND. A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and the New York World. (Copyright, 1916. by Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN, via Sayville, June 8.—That the German submarines and Zeppelins played no role in the great naval battle, and that German artillery, superior markmanship, the dash and daring of the destroyer flotillas and the excel- lence of German torpedoes, coupled with German naval strategy and tacti- cal evolutions, were responsible for the fleet’s success off the Skager Rak, was the statement made to me today in the Admiralty. The assertions made by the English that the submarines, together with the reconnoissance work of the Zepyelins engaged in scouting May 31, are denied It is said that Zeppelins would have been able +o do little because of the mistiness of the weather and the in- ability to see far. German officials de- clare the Zeppelins didn’t reach the ecene until the next morning, and that they then did valuable service. Submarines, it was stated, cut no figure whatever in the battle and could not have done so, because the speed of the ships during the fight was too fast for submarines. Question About Battleships. Notwithstanding British assertions -1o the contrary, it was emphatically stated that the British battleship fleet was en- gaged in the action for a time, but turned to ward off the attack of Ger- man torpedo flotillas, and did not return to engage the German fleet, which, by reason of their superior speed the Brit- ish dreadnoughts easily could have done had they so desired. To support the story that the heavier class of fighters were engaged in the battle the fact is pointed out that the Marlborough was badly damaged, that a German submarine saw a ship of the Iron Duke class with a heavy list, 9 miles east of the Tyne, and that a ves- sel of the Warsprite class was sunk. The Admiralty contradicts the British Admiralty’s story that the British drea:i- noughts remained on the scene of the {engagement and points out that it was German Ships which picked up the En- glish survivors, and that a flotilla sent forward at the close of the day’s fight- ing failed to find the big British ships. Furthermore, that the English, in their own reports, state that Jellico arrived at Scapa Flow (the British fleet's prin- cipal base harbor in the Orkneys), 160 miles from the scene of the battle, on June 1, and that this indicated that Jellico, at the close of the daylight fighting, steamed away to Scapa Flow at high speed, and did not remain. The sinking of the Hampshire, with Lord Kitchener and his staff on board, has made tremendous impression in Germany. The news was received too late in the day for comment. The morning papers had only two or three brief official an- nouncements of the British Admiralty, but they devoted columns to a review of Kitchener’s career and what Kitchen- er meant to England.

He is pictured as England's most capable military leader and Ger- many's: most inveterate foe among En- glish military people. The blow to the English by his loss is compared with what Germany would feel if Falken- hayn and his staff or Hindenburg were killed. He is declared to have been En- gland’s one rea] hope in military mat- ters. “ Believe It Was a Mine. The German Navy Department is not claiming credit for the destruction of the Hampshire and the loss of England's chief military expert and General. No reports from submarines in the area where the cruiser sank have been re- ceived. Therefore. nothing definite could be said. The impression, however, continues in navy circles that it was not the work of a submarine, but of a mine. The fact that it was a very rough sea is said to argue against the U-boat theory. Notwithstanding this the Kreuz Zeitung, chief organ of the Conservative party, and some other newspapers, take it for granted that the Hampshire was sunk by a German submarine and speak of it as another evidence of the power of the German navy, which the En- glish affect to despise. The Kreuz Zeitung declares that Ger- many does not desire to deny the dead foe the respect due him, neither does it want to conceal its satisfaction that ‘one of the most dangerous and irrec- oncilable agitators for the world war has met death throvgh the German navy.” It calls Kitchener a great figure, but at the same time pictures him as 4 man for whom human lives meant noth- ing, adding: ‘“‘This man’s whole career led over corpses. His life’s path was drenched in blood. Thousands and thousands of mothers have cursed him.” The Tageblatt characterizes him as “‘England’s only man who was an au- thority on all matters pertaining to war on land. He was our bitterest, hardest, most terrible foe, the discoverer of the civilian concentration system in war and a believer in the most unscrupulous use and application of the means in war. dier has overtaken him and we will not let salvos of hatred sound above his grave beneath the waves.”’ The Lokal Anzeiger says Kitchener was England’s greatest military organ- izer, but unbeloved at home, and al- though perhaps few tears will be shed for him, it will be none the less hard to replate him in the army. In arty and navy circles it is be- lieved that Kitchener probably had a large and important staff with him. Very likely it included some of the best brains of the British army, it is said. The opinion prevails that Kitchener's loss will be a discouraging biow to the | OE ume Ee IF YOU WANT A PIANO-—READ THIS ADVERTISEMENT sale tomorrow at prices —STARCK ANO ad AN OFFER WITHOUT A PARALLEL SALE 68 Pianos and Player-Pianos.

+ = = * ~~ FF 1917 ADVERTISERS’ CONVENTION. In ordér to get the 1917 convention of the Asso- ciated Advertising Clubs of the World to meet at St. Louis next year, it will be necessary for a strong delegation of St. Louis business and ad- vertising men to go to Philadelphia for this year’s convention, from June 25 to 30, and con- vince the Advertising Clubs that St. Louis is the place for the 1917 convention. The Advertising Club of St. Louis is urging upon the business and advertising men to do this. The club points out that getting the convention for St. Louis will mean bringing to this city, for a bode between 8000 and 10,000 business men. And, it may be added, that these business men are each and all “live wires.” They are men who see things and do things, men with the power of apprecia- tion and of expression. They will discover St. Louis. They will not be deceived or cajoled. If we get them to come here, we shall have to show them a wide-awake, flourishing city. By the time the 1917 convention meets, several steps in the city’s progress that have been delayed can and must be taken. We shall be under the limelight, and our advantages and disadvantages will be pub- lished abroad. We must get the convention, and then we must seo to it that we are ready for its argus-eyed pub- licity agents. e¢¢¢ THE UNFULFILLED COVENANTS. Raymond Robins in his address as temporary chairman of the Colonel’s convention at Chicago declared that some of the articles in the Bull Moose “covenant,” as he calls the platform of 1912, have been translated imperfectly into terms of legislation and political action and some are in process of translation. He said: Others await a wider understanding of their true import and value in a time when present pressure of newer demands and needs for gov- ernmental action shall have been relieved. Soap box recall of judicial decisions presumably ig one of the “covenants” that is awaiting that happy time. ‘= = % a There is no lack of pinheads and pumpkinheads in all parties. > - ‘‘JUST BETWEEN US GIRLS’’ Justice Hughes’ “just-between-us-girls” speech, as William Allen White calls it, was a very pretty commencement day sentiment uttered to a young ladies’ seminary. Furthermore, it was good, sound, patriotic, and nicely judicial withal. Neat- ly typed copies were prepared for the reporters— were they done up in blue ribbons?-and a highly decorous impression was left upon its readers of a gentleman in cap and gown and whiskers in confidential communication with a bevy of charm- ing young ladies, similarly attired, with the excep- tion of the whiskers. No matter what the fate of the Justice at Chi- cago, and no matter what betides later on, the speech is doomed to be known as the just-between- us-girls speech, forevermore. Of course, a just- >. - between-us-girls speech is always intended for the freest possible circulation. The telegraph and telephone are said to be limited mediums com- pared to the tell-a-woman medium. But the as- pect and atmosphere of a feminine confidence it will always retain, by grace of that American humor which does not hesitate even to joke at Justices. = = * a. The Pageant Drama Association selected the wrong play for the Forest Park Theater; it should have been “A Winter’s Tale.” But we hope it can say, with Richard III, “Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer.” THE REPUBLICAN KEYNOTE. Senator Harding’s keynote proved to be a penny. whistle. His speech piped of far-past achieve- ments and future expectations, but contained not one constructive idea nor strong conviction. Yet, although it eliminated Senator Harding as a leader, it was a real keynote of the Republican convention. + Its lack of ideas and convictions was significant of the temper and attitude of the Republican party. The party leaders are not trying to express the convictions of a great body of voters, nor to find a candidate who embodies them, but to make a platform which will not offend the con- victions of any of its factions and to find a man who has no convictions that may offend. Instead of meeting, expressing its convictions and nominating a man who represents them, the Republicans are timidly trying to compromise with a third party—a party of bolters. It is unwilling to take the leader of the bolters, who has convic- tions and who fearlessly advocates them, but wants to steal his clothes and his followers. The leading candidate of the convention is a man who belongs to a past period in politics, whose principal qualification is that he has not expressed an idea or a conviction on the political issues of the day. The party is willing to take Justice Hughes from the bench, where he has been wholly out of. politics, on his character and his past record, in this day of vital new issues and an immediate future pregnant with possibilities. No wonder Col. Roosevelt has the Republicans bluffed. The Progressive party is the strong party in Chicago. It represents the real opposition. Its leader is the only remnant of the powerful Republicans who led the party to victory and dominated the country. He alone has the courage of his convictions “— the audacity of his ambi- tions. . The Republican convention must do something besides hesitate, dicker and compromise with its bolters if it is to prove that all its greatness has not departed and it {s worthy of the support’ of millions of Americans. r= = vy ye eS Who knows?

The “saving of time” is imper- ceptible, but therein consists the vast value to the nation. Mr. Edison could compute it in dollars and cents. Some of us, many of us, want a longer work- day in this country. Advancing the clock an hour at midnight will not lengthen the day’s work for those who work limited hours and decline to work longer. On the other hand, many of us would be grateful for a schedule that allowed of more recreation, in broad daylight, in the outdoors sea- son. Going to bed an hour earlier will equalize the change to any objector, and ‘do it impercep- tibly. “Daylight saving” is as rational a measure as the human race has instituted in its own behalf within our memory, and it seems destined to universal adoption. It is strange that America, at once the principal industrial nation and most pleasure loving, should be so behind time in em- bracing it. = = * __ = = No name is more @ssociated with high tariff legislation than that of McKinley. It cannot be forgotten, however, that he died an ardent advo- cate of reciprocity. = = ww SUFFRAGE AND THE CONVENTIONS. Thousands of women marched at Chicago to visualize to the Republican national convention in a new parable of the importunate widow and the unjust judge the insistency of the feminine demand for political rights. At St. Louis delegates will pass to their meeting place through a golden lane of petitioners asking that the women of all the states shall be given the same privileges as the nine women delegates and 14 women alternates who will have seats in the Democratic national convention. These are helpful forms of promotion for ad- vancing the new political movement. But more effective and impressive than even moving demon- strations of this class is the vote on suffrage cast by Iowa on the eve of the conventions. In a state which has an overwhelming prepon- derance of neither urban nor rural residents, ' which is as closely divided between conservative and sanely progressive sentiment—which, in short, is as truly representative of the intelligence and judgment and prosperity and general condi- tions of the entire country as Ilowa-—suffrage was defeated by a majority of only 6000 or 6000 in a total vote of 284,219. It emphasizes this move- ment to confer on women greater responsibility for public affairs in a new relation and signifi- cance. It is more meaningful than the defeat of the same proposal in Michigan by less than 100 ma- jority. That vote was taken in an election that gave 60,000 for the Bull Moose ticket and plat-| form specifically committed to suffrage. It signifies that the women organized for en- franchisement are gaining a strength too great to be ignored much longer by even the most stub- born and opinionated of party leaders. With this strength convincingly attested, the next stage will be a competition between parties to be the first to accord pledges to the mass of feminine voters destined to have the suffrage within the next few years.

ANTWINE ON THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. f looks to me as if the Republican conven- " tions at Chicago were going to a great deal of trouble for nothing,’’ Mr. Antwine said. ‘The people have heard and seen enough of their squabbles to conclude that the harmonious Denio- cratic party is a much safer reliance in these troublous times, and I imagine that when the votes are counted next November it will be found that Mr. Wilson is still on top. ‘‘T wonder if it has occurred to any of us that if either wing of the Republican party got hold of the Government at this time it would be so intent upon showing the other wing what it could do in the way of going the Democrats one better that militarism would be pushed far beyond anyone’s present ex: pectation of what this country should do in that matter? I have been thinking about it, and I have wondered if what Congress is doing now isn’t enough to satisfy either of those Republican wings, where we might reasonably expect to fetch up if either of them were placed in power. I judge by the news that neither considers the other to have the proper idea, though they are agreed that the Democrats are not going far enough. The inference is that either of them would double or treble the plans of Congress at this time, and that given Republican rule we might expect within a few years to occupy about the same position in our own hemisphere that the Germans occupy in Burope when the war began. That is, in my opinion, a very dangerous tendency. If the limit is to be the sky, and we are to place in power the party which stands for a greater de- gree of preparedness than any other party, it cer- tainly cannot be long until we find ourselves feared and detested in exactly the way Germany was before this war began. In short, preparedness may be both a good and a necessary thing and still be a dan- gerous political issue. I can’t help feeling that the people would dislike to see it become a political issue. Enough is enough.’’ JUNE.

Two more Biblical points leomed up on the war map last week, One was Tarsus, birthplace of Paul the Apostle. The other was Nineveh, once the world’s greatest city and scene of Jonah’s call to reform, now know ag Mosul, . It is the meeting place of many caravan routes, a dominating point on the road to Bagdad and one of the keys to Mesopotamia, where Adam and Eve first saw the light. But it was the Russians, not the English, who were putting those points on the map. They were whipping the Turks at every turn. The pleasantry of running for one of the presiden- tial nominations without any hope of getting it adds a good deal of gayety to the occasion without dam- aging any of the real contestant’s chances. This being so, we can’t see why anyone shouldn’t get in and run along quietly until the field enters the stretch. Senator Cummins of Iowa preserves his health with this exercise every four years, and Sena- tor La. Follette of Wisconsin has only desisted since he found out that pretty nearly everybody is run- ning. We cannot commiend this as the true demo- cratic spirit. If the Senator still cuts his hair the way he did he is always sure of being identified, no matter how big the crowd, and even if he were not it could not constitute a truly democratic reason for not getting into the racé, IN SIGNS.

Why, Dick, you must be making your cool four thousand, and if your firm went tust you could get as good a job anywhere. And 45 if you're a day. Ain’t you never had a girl, Dick?” Dick Sittingwell moved in ‘his seat wneasily, “Cut it out, I tell you,” he answered ferociously. “Hello! Bourne End! Here’s where I get off. So long, old man! See you next week as usual.” Dick Sittingwell had had plently of girls when he was a young man, but somehow all his romances had come ¢0 an untimely end. And it was only within the last two years that a new romance, sweeter than any, and more Strange, had come into his life. He never spoke about Miss Elsie van Nugent. It had never entered his mind that he could speak to her with- out profaning her. Their acquaintance had begun by an accident. Dick, toiling up the hill at Bourne End on a hot summer day, with his sample case in his hand, had geen the old maid standing at the gate of her garden. He looked up at the big house in the village and, taking her for the housekeeper, said: “Might I ask you for a glass of wa- ee A Charming Complexion Friends are calling or you have a sudden invitation.

T HOPKINS & nated New York City —a = Old Maid Egbert. ter, ma’am?” ‘“T’ll get you one,” stammered Miss van Nugent, and ran away, or rather hurried away, returning with a glass. Dick quaffed it at a draft. Afterward, upon succeeding jour- reys, it often happened that he saw Miss Elsie at the gate. Then he would nod pleasantly and pass a remark. By degrees their intimacy increased. Dick Sittingwell would often stay as long as five minutes, talking and looking wistfully at the big house in the cool grounds. He learned Miss Elsie’s name at the hotel. She owned the place, and was the daughter of the late squire. She was an old maid —and they said, maliciously, that she was 40. II.- Elsie Van Nugent had never married because she had taken care of her fa- ther until his death, when she was 37. No opportunities came after that. Her life had been utterly cramped. Her bookish learning had never been modified by contact with the world, for her father had always been a recluse, and, in his last days, a fretful invalid. When she met the drummer she thought him a typical man of the world. The acquaintance was a wonderful thing to her. She felt guilty in stealing down to the garden gate when Dick was coming that way—Thursdays he always appeared in Bourne End. She invented little excuses at first to account for her presence there. Wistfully she thought how she would like to ask him.in. But she never dared. It was odd that the breezy drummer should exercise so strange a fascination over the old maid, but it was equally strange that he should find in her his ideal of womanhood. Two or three years passed, and their intimacy stayed ex- actly where it was. Neither dared to increase it, or to venture to speak of the thoughts in the heart. Dick was becom- ing balder and stouter, and Elsie more withered and lean. Then came the day when Dick was amazed to see the house closed and a big “For Sale’ sign in front of it. The town was buzzing with the news. Miss . a Ml i ll il Se eee her property, had absconded, taking with him her whole available fortune, $10,000. Miss Elsie had remained secluded in the house since the Monday before Dick hesitated only a moment, then he went into the garden and knocked at the door. III. Miss Elsie herself opened it and stood watching him through her tear-stained | lashes. “Tt’'s too bad, ma’am,” said Dick. “Just heard the news and called to say how sorry I was. i hope, ma’am, you aren’t planning to sell the place be- cause of that?” “I certainly am. left now.”’ “Might I ask your price, ma’am?’’ in- quired Dick. “Bight thousand dollars,’’ Miss Elsie listiessly. Dick thought hurriedly. He knew that would mean about $3000 cash and a mort- gage. Dick was worth about $3000. “T’ll buy it,’’ he announced. “You!"’ gasped Miss Elsie. “Yes, ma’am. You see, I’ve had my eye on the place for a long time, in the hope you might some day sell.’’ “TI suppose you can have it, then,’’ he heard her answer vaguely. “Everything in it as it stands, stock and barrel?’’ asked Dick. “Why, I guess the furniture’s not worth much,” said Miss Elsie. ‘‘You’ll have to see my brother, Mr. Van Nu- gent, at Staples. He has charge of the matter.” “But if he is willing, you are?’’ sisted Dick. ‘‘Yes,’’ she replied. Dick withdrew. He clenched his fists as he thought of the lawyer. He had known Sharples well; the man was a convivial person at the hotel. “If ever I run across him, I'll break his head,” he swore. IV. And Dick ran across him the fol- lowing week in the most amazing way. He was sent out to a Western city to cover a territory left vacant by the illness of a fellow drummer. The business done, Dick retired ta his room in the hotel. A door opened softly, and Dick saw the head and shoulders of Sharples. In a minut2 he had leaped across the passage and entered, before the law- yer could draw the bolt. Sharples stared at Dick in terror. “What do you want?” he snarled. “You know,” said Dick. “You'll give me ten thousand for Miss Van Nugent.” “It never was ten thousand.” “It’s going to be.” “D’you suppose I’ve got it about me, you fool?’ It’s all that I have answered lock, per- Elsie’s lawyer, who had had charge of | Dick went to the telephone and —— ~~ - WONDERFUL VALUES IN USED : PLAYERPIANOS 25 Rolls of Player Music With Each Player! !

She was crying softly. “I don’t know what to say or how to thank you,” she sobbed. “It’s wonderful It’s wonderful!” And in her happiness, more at the proof of his interest than at the re- turn of the money, the years seemed to fall from Miss Elsie, and there was almost.a girlish flush upon her face. Dick breathed heavily. “I guess I’m sorry we can’t carry out our ar- rangement,” he mumbled. “It wasn’t the place I wanted, but the contents, as we agreed.” “The furniture? Do you really want that?’ “No,” stammered Dick. you.” And with amazing daring he took Miss Elsie in his arms and kissed her. Copyright by W. G.

Some mothers seem to have an idea a baby is too young to mind such things, and when the child later on becomes fretful or shows symptoms of nervous- press the cause is never attributed to the frequent attention of visitors. They do not realize that a young baby receives a nervous shock when suddenly picked up while asleep and carried into another room to be handled by several people. Baby probably will be quite as cross aS any grown person becomes when disturbed in slumber. Too much handling of a young baby is quite liable to be the cause of the colic that comes cn a few hours later. It is quite bad enough to take up a baby when awake—infants thrive test when not handled, and they should be iaken up only for feeding, bathing, etc.— Lut when a sleeping child is carried into another room and deliberately awakened by the visitors it is positively cruel. If the mother must show off her caby, she should take the visitors to rhe infant and permit them to gaze upon the child, but in no wise disturb it. One proud mother once raised her baby’s eyélids while sleeping to show some friends the beautiful eyes of the child and one of the visitors was greatly amused when the startled child began to cry lustily. The mother seemed aston- ished that so young a baby should notice such an act. Another detriment to the child comes when it is able to do cute things or make bright remarks. When a visitor appears, the little tot must display its achievements and this is repeated with each caller. Do not do this with your child. It isa mental strain for the baby and if the visitors are many it may lead to serious brain trouble, A very young child should never be encouraged to show off its abilities in- discriminately. Keep your baby quiet: then, if your visitors cannot “rave” over your precocious child, you at l-ast have the satisfaction of a healthy infant who will be a constant joy to you.

For hours the bad little gnome waded about, followed by the elf, but the boy began to grow tired. “Oh! you are a big baby,’’ laughed the gnome. “I only brought you out here to Scare you, anyway, so good-by.” And away he ran, leaving the poor nymph baby alone-in the midst of the great marsh. It was getting dark. Now it happened that; the mother fly was just skimming over the marsh on her way home, and/she saw the poor ee | nymph baby. “I will lead you back,” she cried, as she flew down in front of him. “Just follow me and we will soon be home.”’ “But fit is dark. I can’t see how to walk,” the boy wailed. The guod fly did not know what to do. Then she saw not far off a flash of light and understood that it was the glow from some rotten wood. So she bit off a bit of the wood, held it down in her feet and flew along before the boy, who was thus able to find his way. cave. They could hear the mother weeping inside and the boy raced in to throw himself in her arms. More slowly came the fly, for she was weary with carrying the bit of shining wood so far. “What reward can I give you for saving my naughty boy?” cried the nymph. The humble little fly thought a mo- ment. “I thirk,’’ she said at ‘ast, ‘‘tha¢ I would like to always carry a lantern— it might help things that get lost.” So the nymph touched the fly with her want and right at the end of the fly’s slender body was hung a shining light.

' “AS YOU LIKE IT” ON OUTDOOR STAGE IDYLLIG IN BEAUTY First-Night Rain Stops at Mo- ment Predicted by Pageant Drama Officers. By CARLOS F. HURD. PEN-AIR community drama was OC a picnic for last night's ‘‘As You Like It” audience, at the new Forest Park municipal theater. A pic- nic, as everyone knows, is an occasion on which it rains. Admiration for the stage production— and it was a most admirable affair— ‘must yield to a still more intense ad- miration for the way in which the offi- cers of the Pageant Drama Association handled the rainstorm. Never was there a more unwelcome bit of precipitation. The first two nights of the week’s schedule had already gone to waste because of wet weather. Now, on the third night, a first-night audience was waiting, when, just as the orches- tra was about to commence the overture, the rainfall began. Those who had umbrellas raised them, and others fled to the protectiun of trees or tents. “Keep your seat checks!’’ Boy Scout ushers called to the departing throng, while other scouts vproclaimed reassuringly that “‘The show will go on if the rain stops.’ But it did not stop, and it had begun to look like an all-night drizzle, when an “announcer with a megaphone appeared on the stage. He Called the Turn. “The officers of the Pageant Drama Association,’’ he declared, ‘‘believe this rain Will stop in six or seven minutes.”’ To fix a time, within six or seven minutes, for a change in the weather, is gilt-edged, mocorocco-bound weath- er predicting. It was so good that the folks in the amphitheater didn't believe it. But all the same, it was not less than six and not more than seven minutes after, when even the scoffers suddenly became aware that the rain was over. The violinists be- gan the hard task of tuning their dampened strings up to pitch, and at 8:26 the orchestra was playing the overture, while the persons who had forsaken seats were returning to them. Those who had “official’’_and other versions of the play put them down as “books in the running brooks” on the exposed chairs. Thos who did not have books wiped up the rainfall from the seats with newspapers, or with paper towels brought by Boy Scouts from the dressing tents. And then—and then there appeared first a star, wiiich set everyone to Wishing; and next the moon, which was soon shining so brightly as to make the blue spotlight, ovcr beyond right stage, seem almost au iinpertinence. The moon was not on view at all times in the play, but it was Leaming benignly when Orlando addressed it at the opening of the third act, tegging the “thrice- crowned Queen °° Night” to look at the job of bill-posting he had done, to ad- vertisé his affoction for Rosalind. Setting Is Beautiful. But this is goiting ahead of the story. For the audience the full beauty of the outdoor theater came into view when, in the third scene of Act 1, the bridge at the rear of tue stage was revealed, and the villageis came tripping over it, to view the wrestling match. Beautiful as was the scene of life and color on the stage, one was tempted to look above it, to the more beautiful trees, whose damp leaves glistened like alabaster. The stage lighting was so bestowed on these trees, particularly on the majestic one at the audience’s left, as to form a rare union of nature and art. For the latter half of the play, which is set in the Forest of Arden, the land- scape gardening at the rear was changed into shrubbery, and the banished Duke, the melancholy Jaque (pronounced Jake Weeze by his companions in exile), the masquerading Rosalind and the sighing Orlando, not to forget the merry-wise Touchstone and his Audrey, made their exits and their entrances and spoke their parts, in a manner accommodated to the width of the stage and the depth of the big open-air auditorium. The result proved that the new munic- ipa] theater is a place to hear, as well as to see. In the 50-cent seats the sound was as clear as in the $2 section, and the view, by added distance, was even more idyllic. Even in the bleachers at the rear, the actors’ words were heard The upper seats, including the free section, were but sparsely oc- cupied, this part of the audience having apparently been kept away by the weather. The $2 and $1.80 sections were well filled, except for some seats aban- doned by those who fled when the rain came. | Players’ Work Well Done. Margaret Anglin, as Rosalind, was worthy of Orlando’s most fervid bal- lads. Her love-tutoring of her amor- ous swain was a charming mixture of shyness and boldness. Frederic Lewis, as Orlando, was a doughty wrestler and a lover whom any maid, Elizabethan or modern, might covet. Carolyn Brent as Celia talked about making herself un- attractive, but by “no means succeeded in doing so. Sidney Greenstreet as Touchstone brought laugh after laugh at witticisms which are but dull read-/ ing. Raymond Koch, as Amiens, sang “Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind” in almost too realistic fashion, considering the state of the temperature at that moment. Tall young Louis Calhern was an engaging shepherd, and Genevieve Hamper, Mrs. Robert Mantell, was a resolute Phoebe. . Robert Mantell, in the role of Jaques, spoke the “Seven Ages of/Man”’ with the unction of the lifelong student and actor of Shakspeare. Max Montesole, as William, was a laughing and laugh- able bumpkin. Two old-men parts, those | of Corin and Adam, were played by Montesole and Harry Barfoot, and Henry Hull, a local player, was the wicked brother Oliver. The play was followed by 16 minutes of folk dancing by St. Louis amateurs, forming tha‘community epilogue.” This was prettily done, the circles of lads and lassés about the trees being es- pecially pleasing. The choosing and kiss- ing of the May Queen, about which fone was said in advance, was not | visible to the spectators, The Pageant Choral Soctety sang an effective inter- lude. A different cast of dancers will present the epilogue tonight. The per- formance begins at 8 o’clock, the music a few minutes eartier. The “As You Like It” production is St. Louis’ share in the Shakspeare tef- centenary. It is scheduled to continue through next Monday night, with a matinee Saturday. Alienation Suit Is Dropped.

E COMPLETED D TRIAL STARTS Prosecution Outlines Its Evi- dence and Girl’s Father Will Be First Called. LETTERS WILL PRODUCE Most of These Are Merely a Boy’s Love Notes, but Some Hint at Relations. ‘ WAUKEGAN, IIL, June 8.—With the jury in the murder trial of Will Cr- pet completed after the examination of more than 1200 men in 16 venires, the actual trial of the University of Wisconsin student charged with the murder of his sweetheart, Marion Lambert, was begun today. At completion of the examination of jur- Ors yesterday, when the men had been sworn in and David R. Joslyn, assist- ant to the State’s Attorney in prosecution, was opening his state- ment, the defense asked that the trial be adjourned until today on ac- count of the sudden illness of Orpet’s senior counsel, James H,. WilkerSon. ‘lhe request was granted. Attorney Josyln made his statement outlining the case of the prosecution and telling what the State hopes to prove. It is said the defense will reserve its opening statement until after the evidence for the prosecution has been presented. Girls Father a Witness. the conclusion of Attorney Frank Lambert, will take the the Upon Joslyn’s statement, father of the dead girl, stand as the first witness for State. State's Attorney Ral»yh Dady is said to have 125 witnesses, while the defense is reported to have de- cided to call but 25. According to es- timates of attorneys in the case, the trial probably will occupy another month. The examination of venire- men occupied about three weeks. Letters from Orpet to the gir! will be introduced as evidence by the State ani are expected to form an important part of the prosecution's case. A number of the letters published in a Chicago pa- per today were written by Orpet while he was at the university in Madison, Wis., and run the gamut from infatua- tion to a decided coolness on his part. Most of the letters are but those of a boy to his sweetheart, but in some of them is a hint of the relations of the two. Of the jury as accepted, 10 are mar- ried men and most of them have good- sized families. The average age of the jury is 29 years. The men are: Len Barthell, 34, Antioch; George Thompson, Newport; H. F. King, Area: T. Wil- loughby, Millburn; Samuel Bradbury. Waukegan; James O’Shea, Waukegan: E. J. Bock, Highland Park: J. J. Brand. Highiand Park; W. J.

EEE SUMMER RESORTS — a ee a oe Q wh om a at Hi ‘ PRESS SUPPORTS LLOYD-GEORGE | TO SUCCEED EARL KITCHENER Lord Derby Also Mentioned for Place —Cause of Sinking of Hampshire , Still Undetermined. LONDON, June 8.—The British people are still staggered by Kitchener's tragic fate, and there is a strong disposition to criticise the Admiralty for failing to provide a proper escort for the Hamp- shire. which ship so far as is known, was unattended. It is still, of course, a mystery whether the Hampshire was sunk by a mine, a torpedo or an in- ternal explosion. The theory of a float- ing mine is most generally accepted. By far the most important part of Kitchener’s duties had been transferred to Gen. Sir William Robertson, the chief of staff, and Kitchener’s future work was intended to lie in such missions as the ill-fated one to Russia, where he was to discuss war organizations, espe- cially in relation to munitions. Nothing is settled about his successor, but Lloyd-George seems to have the bulk of the press support, although Lord Derby is also mentioned. Lloyd- George was only prevented from ac- companying Lord Kitchener on his ill- fated trip on the cruiser Hempshire. by the Irish crisis, according to statements in politiczl circles here today.

Why, girls of 16 dress like women of 30!’’ “Huh!’’ remarked friend husband. “More often you finds it's women of 30 dressing to look like girls of 16.”" “Oh, my! How observing you are!”’ said Mrs. Jarr. “I’m observing enough to be on to that,” replied Mr. Jarr. “The young girls are all right. It’s the old hens who are making a show of themselves. It’s just Ifke all this talk of the high cost of living. Living as people of moderate means lived 20 years ago would be just as cheap today. The trouble is that peo- ple don’t want to live cheaply. The high cost of living is because so much money goes for small luxuries—luxuries we didn’t use to have.”’ “What luxuries do we have, even small W ones?” asked Mrs. Jarr.
