No definite plan of action has been worked Secretary Redtield told the Cabinet that the bureau of fisheries had. been unable to offer any scientific explana- tion of the unprecedented attacks upon human beings. A formal statement made public by the Acting Commissioner Moore of the fisheries bureau said the bureau experts reluctantly had been compelled to come to the conclusion that no certainly ef- fective preventive measures could be recommended, but advised a shark catching campaign and warned bathers ts stay in shallow water. Attention was called to the small number of attacks compared with the vast army of bathers with the suggestion that there appeared to be mo reason for a panic among the people at seaside resorts. 250-Pound ‘Shark Reported Killed at Atiantic Highlands, N.

FOUND NEW YORK, July 14.~Hundreds of persons are today hunting along the New Jersey coast, the seashore of Long . » Island and in New York Bay for sharks that have recently killed four persons and attacked others. Reports of the sighting or killing of sharks along the ocean shore reach the city almost hourly and some fishermen have brought in the big fish they have killed to prove the truth of their stories. Only a few of these, however, are described as man killers. A passenger on a steamboat is authority for the statement that he saw two sharks in the Hudson River near Tarrytown. One shark was killed near Fairfield, Conn. Thousands of persons who have been Griven to the beaches by the hot wave fear to enter the waters in the vicinity of New York since sharks killed a man and a boy in Matawan Creek, N. J.

FULL MOON LIKE A CRESCENT Greatest Obscurity in Tonight's Belipse Will Be at 10:46. Tae four-fifths eclipse ot the moon to- night will reach its greatest degree of obscurity at 10:46 o'clock, according to the estimate of Rev. Father J. B. Goesse of St. Louis University. The moon will enter the penumbra or outer shadow of the earth at 8.18 p. m., caus- ing a slight dimming of its luster. At 9:19 p. m. the earth’s shadow will begin its actual encroachment upon the moon, When the eclipse has reached its fullest degree the moon, which is now at its full, will appear as a crescent. At 12:12 a. m. the moon will begin to leave the shadow and at 1:14 it will have left the penumbra. TWO NUNS TAKE STATE QUIZ will ~ Seek Positions in St. County Public Schools.

IS UNMARRIED Was Born in 1857 and Accumu- lated Fortune as a Corpo- ration Lawyer. NOMINEE WASHINGTON. July 14.—J. H. Clarke, United States District Judge, at Cleve- land, O., was nominated by President Wilson today as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, to succeed former Justice Hughes, the Republican nomi- nee for the presidency. | A sketch of Judge Clarke, given out at the White House today, says: „He has been consp*cuous in progres- sive movements in Ohio and in the na- tion at large, and “is probably the most gifted orator in Ohio.” Since becoming District Judge in Cleve- dand he has taken especial interest in the naturalization and Americanization c* foreign-born citizens. For Low Railroad Fares. Particular attention is directed in the White House sketch to the fact that despite his service as genera] counsel for a railroad before going on the bench, Judge Clarke in his campaign for the Senate advocated a two-cent railroad passenger rate law. In Cleveland Judge Clarke for.a long time was associated in politics with the late Mayor Tom Johnson and Secretary Paker. The President confidently expects that Judge Clarke will be confirmed during the present session of Congress. John H. Clarke was born in Lisbon, O., Sept. 18, 1857, and has never mar- ried. He has been a lifelong Democrat and is a lawyer of wide reputation. He was appomted Judge of the United States District Court in Cleveland two years ago by President Wilson. It is the only office he has ever held, though he was once a candidate for the United States Senate from Ohio against the late M. A. Hanna, but was cefeated. His appointment to the Dis- trict Federal bench prevented his be- 1914. Accumated Fortune. Judge Clarke accumulated a fortune, having served long as a corporation at- torney and having been for many years general counsel of the Nickel Plate Railroad. He advocated many progress- ive pieces of legislation and strongly favored direct election of United States Senators and 2-cent railroad fare long before these reforms became pular with politicians. * Before going to Cleveland, 19 years ago, Judge Clarke practiced law in Youngstown, O., where he moved from Lisbon one year after he was admitted to the Ohio bar in 18,83. He had pre- viously been graduated from Western Reserve University in 1877. While in the Youngstown Vindicator, a daily newspeper, and retains that interest. He is president of the Vindicator Pub- lishing Co. and also president. of the Youngstown Arc Engraving Co. Judge Clarke resides at the University Club in Cleveland and always appears dressed with exactness and in strict taste. His library is one of the most complete in Ohio and he is regarded as an authority on corporations.

Charles Rock's objection to the plan vf his wife, Minnie, to put their two Young daughters on the professional vaudeville stage led to a quarrel in which Rock shot and killed his wife in front of their home at 3002 Shenandoah avenue last night while a policeman held him by the collar and their four children = -_- -_— —- Woman Slain and Two of Children Over Whom Couple Had Quarreled 3 ee eee Burn Ard ELEANOR. N looked on. Rock is 48 years old and his wife was 38. He is proprietor of a plan- in mill at 2009 Gravois avenue. Mrs. Rock was preparing to take the two daughters, Elenore, 14 and Ruth, lz, out of town to fill a vaudeville en- | gagement. After the shooting Rock told the police that his wife's desire to. put the children on the stage had caused frequent quarrels and the one last night started when she announced her in- tention of accompanying the children on the vaudeville tour. The tragedy followed quarrel, which led to an attempt by Mrs. Rock to have her husband arrested on a charge of disturbing the peace. The policeman was arfesting Rock when he fired two shots at his wife, one striking her in the head, causing almost instant death. Then he fired three more shots while struggling with the policeman. He says he tried to kill himself, but wit- nesses say he fired at the policeman. Four children of the Rocks, ranging in age from 8 to 18 years, saw their mother killed. Policeman is Called. About 9:30 o’clock Daniel W. Cale of the Wyoming Street Police Station, was called to the Rock home by neighbors who said there was a disturbance there. When he arrived, Rock was sitting on the front steps. Cale talked with him. and Mrs. Rock stepped out and told the policeman to arrest her husband and that she would follow on a street car and file a complaint against him. Rock said he would not consent to be arrested unless his wife was arrested also on a similar charge. Then Cale took hold of Rock’s coat to take him away. As he did so, Rock quickly drew a revolver and fired the two shots at his wife. Cale grappled with the man and final- ly knocked him down, Rock fought des- perately to free himself, during which his revolver was discharged three times, cne of the bullets passing through the policeman's blouse. A. J. Stahl, 303 Shenandoah, who saw the trouble from his home across the street, went to aid the. policeman and disarmed. Rock, who was arrested and taken to the city hospital There bruises he had suffered in the fight were dressed and he was then locked up at the Wyoming Street Station. “Tt have led a dog's life during 20 a : Company, Second Texas Infantry, se AND - MEXICAN RAIDERS EXCHANGE SHOTS Outposts: at Donna, Tex., Pre- vent Armed Party From Crossing Border.

Waldhaus Gave Her Jewels Proposed to Her. Mrs. Irene Vandover, a divorcee, 2% years old, of 5330 Cote Brilliante avenue, today told the police how a proposal of marriage was made to her by William J. Waldhaus, 21, a boarder at her home. who shot and killed himself in the base- ment of the Masonic Home, near Del- mar and Union boulevards, yesterday, after he had been chased there as a burglar suspect. The .identification of Waldhaus was made complete by Mrs. Vandover after relatives had also said they beifeved the body was his. Waldhaus was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Waldhaus of 1821 Geyer avenue. A verdict of suicide was returned by the Coroner today. Policemen were the only inquest witnesses. When Waldhaut room at the Van- dover flat. was searched the police found a dresser drawer filled with small articels of jewelry, silverware and other valuables. Two weeks ago Waldhaus was questioned by detec- tives about the daylight robbery of the flat above Mrs. Vandover’s and since then he had been under sur- veillance. Followed Him Inte Yards. Shortly before noon, yesterday, George Palen, a negro houseman, saw a man prowling about the yard of a residence at 5707 Maple savenue, which was robbed about two weeks ago. Palen followed the man and saw him go into two other yards. The police were notified and the man was chased. He ran into the basement of the Masonic Home, went into a toilet room and locked the door. He fired one shot through the door at the policemen and while they were battering down the door shot and killed himself. 1 9 r “ wie: 1 = - 5 * * * 4 5 - 2 1 “ 3, *. oid he N > . me ae ee 2 * — .

This change is due to the improvement in our equipment.” The conference was held at the war office and was participated in by Albert Thomas, French Minister of Munitions; Gen. Beliaeff, Assistant Minister of War of Russia; Gen. A. Dall ’Olio, member of the Italian Ministry of War, and the new Brit- ish Minister of Munitions, Edwin 8. Montague. “Since our last munitions confer- ences,” said Mr. Lloyd-George, “there has been a considerable change in the fortunes of the allies. On that date the great Champagne offensive in the west had just failed to attain ita ob- jective and the French and British armies had sustained heavy losses without the aceomplishment of any particular success. In the east the enemy had pressed the gallant armies of Russia back some hundred miles, and the Balkans had just been over- run by the Central Powers. The overwhelming victories won by the valiant soldiers ok Russia have struck terror into the hearts of our foes and these, coupled with the im- mortal defense of Verdon by our in- domitable French comrades, and the brave resistance of the Italians against overwhelming odds in the Southern Alps, have changed the whole complexion of the landscape. Water Shed {= Crossed. “Now, the combined offensive in the east and west has wrenched the initia- | tive out of the hands of the enemy— never, I trust, to return to his grasp. We have crossed the watershed and now victory is beginning to flow in our direction. Why have our prospects improved? The answer is, the equipment of our armies has improved enormously and is i continuing to improve. “The British navy until recently has absorbed more than half the metal Workers of this country. The task of building new ships and répairing the old ones for the gigantic navy and fitting and equipping them occupied the ener- gies of a million Men. Most of our new factories now are complete; most of thé machinery has’ been sét up. Hun- 3 ot — of men — men. | hitherto unaccustomed to metal and — work, have been trained for munitions making. Big Production of Guns, “Every month we are turning out hun- dreds of guhs and howitzers, light, me- dium and heavy. Our heavy guns are rolling in at a great rate and we are turning out nearly twice as much am- munition in @ single week—and, what is more, nearly three times as much heavy shell—as we fired for the great offen- sive in September—although the am- munition we expended in that battle was the result of many weary weeks’ ac- cumulation. The new factories and workshops we set up have not yet at- tained oné-third their full capacity, but their output is now increasing with great rapidity. Our main difficulties in organization, construction, equipment, labor supply and readjustment have been solved. If officials, employers and workmen keep at it with the same zeal end assidulty as they have hitherto em- ployed, our supplies will soon be over- whelming. ‘T cannot help thinking that the im- provement in the Russian ammunition has been one of the greatest and most unpleasant surprises the enemy has sustained. Still, our task is but half accomplished. Every great battle fur- nishés additional proof that this is a war of equipment. More ammunition means more victories and fewe casu- alties.“ Offensive Just Begun, Says Asquith, The offensive on the western front is only in its beginning, declared Premier Asquith,in announcing in the House of Commons today that the Government had August holidays because of the demand for mitnitions in France. He expressed conviction that the workmen would co- operate in this plan so as to make it plain to Great Britain’s foes that the offensive, in its present intensity of | bombardment and assault, would, if nec- essary, be “continued indefinitely.” The Premier also announced that by royal proclamation the August bank holidays would be postponed, and he appealed to all classes for postponement of all holi- days until further and definite progress of the offensive had heen secured. The Premier recalled that the June and July holidays had been postponed in view of the urgent military réquire- ments of the moment, and he had to acknowledge on the part of the Govern- ment, a very full response by the work- ers to his appeal at that time. Since then, he added, a great and very favorable change in the military situa- tion has been produced by the allied or- fensive now im progress. — POINCARE STATES ALLIES’ AIMS IN HOLIDAY ADDRESS French President Says There Will Be No Peace Which Would Hide Fresh | German Plast of Agutension.

DOMPIERRE, Picardy, via London, July M4—A string of great balloons—16 visible without glasses—is the first ob- vious thing that a reporter sees on this front. Next his eyes wander to the unaccountable batteries in action. Above them the aerial telephore stations swing beyond the trajectory of the German gunfire. On the German side not a single bal- loon is visible. Fifteen have been burned in the air by a secret contrivance known only to the allies, since the offensive began. The German artillery is blinded because the allies have obtained the mastery of the air. according to the confident claims of the British and French officers. It is true that, from this point of view, a German aeroplane is rarely sighted, while French aviators are constantly on the wing. Airmen Are Daring. A novelty has been presented by the allied aviators in this great o*fensive. | French and British airmen have swept over the battleficld at as low an alti- tude as 600 feet and some of the more daring have swooped over the strug- ling armies at as low a height as 300 feet. These airmen have signalled to the French artillery telephoners the precise position of the German guns and the locations of the German forces wait- Ing for the French assault. They have taken great risks of being hft by the shells of their own guns, but, according to the officers, every one escaped. The French have developed on a great scale their aerial torpedoes, which are charged with a higher explosive than the large caliber shell. These tor- pedoes can be hurled half a mile and fired with such rapidity that a sécond will leave the ejector while tte first is still in the air. \ Vaults as Boomproeofs, The village of Dompierre is scarcely more than a name. The resistance made by the Germans here, as in all the other villages in the neighborhood, seems to have been most tenacious. In the cemetery the vaults were used as bomb proofs and the stones and iron railings around the graves as bar- ricades. The French concentrated their gun- fire on the cemetery at Curlu for half an hour before the obstinate defense of the Germans was crushed. They used shrapnel shells, which filled the air with curious green opalescent vapors. One of the dramatic episodes of the fighting was the storming of a cliff known as the Gendarme’s Hat, which formed the side of an old quarry. The Frenehmen réached the top and halted in the sunlight, waving their helmets and handkerchiefs and cheering madly. Reorganizing the defenses in the oc- éupied territory is a vast engineering work. Light field railroads are thrown forward to the new line, numerous solid roads are built through the country and the ring of hammer on metal can be heard in the intervals of artillery fire. The whole region is busy with prepara- tions for holding the newly won ground and for moving forward. The controlling mind of all this is Gen. Marie Emile Fayolle, an elderly artillery commander, who had been re- tired two years reer the war began. QUICKSAND HAMPERS WORK ON CHOUTEAU AVENUE VIADUCT’ Water Main in Hole for Pier Bursts and Task of Lining It With Piling Must Be Done Over. Quicksand encountered at the depth of 50 feet has caused much trouble to the Frank Mueller & Co., contractors, who are building the new Chouteau avenue Viaduct.

Correspondence ot the Post-Dispatch. STOCKHOLM, June 21.—Thanks to the indulgénce of friendly Government of- ficlals and the co-operation of the Brit- ish consulate in Stockholm, the diffi- culties of continuing trade with Amer- ica under the new Swedish war trade act“ have been at least temporarily overcome. This new law specifically prohibits anyone in Sweden from enter- ing into agreements with foreign Powers covering the disposition of goods im- ported into this country, and was os- tensibly a retaliatory act against the British blockade in the North Sea. In actual operation, however, it was quick- ly discovered that the law réally fa- vored England and threatened to shut cff all trade with América. Trade Commission Named. The Swedish Government appointed a trade commission to handle all foreign commerce and the new war trade act authorizes this commission to make agreements with foreign Governments urder certain conditions. The principle behind these conditions was that a bel- ligerent nation in exporting goods had a perfect right to demand the promise that none of such goods should fall into the hands of an enemy country. Thus the commission has not hesitated to ex- tend guch promises to Great Britain jcovering goods imported by Sweden from English merchants. But the Swedish Government holds that Great Britain has no right under any pretext of international law to de- mand a guarantee from Sweden covering koods imported into this country from another neutral country—principally the United States. Great Britain absolute- ly. refusés to let any goods pass into Sweden or any other Scandinavian couh- try from the United States or any other place withotu this specific guarantee. Trade Was in Bad Way. With the Swedish Government refus- ing to give such guarantees under the new act and with Great Britain’s navy shutting off all imports not covered By guarantees, trade with America seemed in a bad way. After studying the law in detail, however, it has been decided it 18 élastic enough to permit tempo- rarily a system of é@vasion which works this way: Instead of making an agreement with the British Government the importer here swears to the British form of guar- antes before @ Swedish notary public. He then goes to the British consulate | and there the signature of the Swedish notary is certified. Then the declara- tion is sent to the agents of the shib- ting line in London and he applies for the import license from the British au- thorities. THE DAY IN CONGRESS. SENATE.

VON WIEGAND. A Statt Correspondent ot the Post- Dispatch and New York World. (CopyMght, 1916, by Presé Pub. Co.) BERLIN, July 14. Our harvest will de one more of thé numerous disappoint- ments for our enemies,“ declared Herr von Schoriemer, Minister of Agriculture, when he received me yesterday at the ministry, where I went to ascrtain the condition of the crops throughout Ger- many. The Minister was just about to depart for the East to inspect the crops and agricultural conditions in the waste sections occupied by the Germans be- hind the east front. “It is, of course, a little early to say definitely what this year’s yield will be, and it is always better to be conserva- tive in such things, and underestimate rather than overestimate,” he sa id. “However, food heed not worry us for the next 12 months. 7 “Last yeat’s harvest was very poor, in some instances almost a calatiftous failure, because Of the drouth. This time the spring was rather wet and cold, but it has done the grain ho harm worth mentioning. A much lartzer acr’- age Was sown, and the grain yield per acre will be much greater than lent summer. Land in Béleium Cultivated. “In addition, there is about 1,000,000) hectares (2,471,0% acres) of land aside from Belgium, occupied by our troops, Which has been sown and planted and promises a good harvest.“ How about the potatd crop?“ I asked. „It's too tafly to tell with any degree ot certainty What the potato yield may “The early potatoes suffered somewhat from Fain. So far as the late fall potatoes are con- cerned, Which comprise the bulk of our potato crop, the fields appear to de in excellent condition.” The Minister said the potato crop for 1915 was approximately 50,000,000 tons, and that Germany, even in bad years, produces ah average of 4,000,000 tons. „Germany eats, at the very most, 18. 000,000 tons annually,“ he said, the re- mainder being used for feeding iivestock or manufacturing purposes. Last year, because of the drouth, we had very lit- that loss with potatoes, of Which lartze quantities were fed to the livestock. This year we have an abundant bariéy and oats crop in sight, which gives as- surance that there will be plenty of po- tatoes for human consumption.“ Touching upon the shortage of sugar, the Minister said an acreage eight tu 10 per cent less than last year was sown with sugar beets, but that with care and economy in the use of sugar Germany also would have enough for next year. “There is a great shortage of meat,” I suggested. Oootiook for Meat Better. Two meatless days a week and im- ted meat Tations are certainly not &x- actly agreeable,“ repiled Baron Schor- lemer. “The outlook for Germany's meat supply has grown better and is stéadily growing better. Had We only thought of the preservation of our meat Supply for the duratien of the war, it might not have deen necessary to take measures like the meatiess days and meat cards, but we are also looking to thé future. “We want to keep up our livestock and not reduce it.

M. Yesterday. ERIE, Pa., July 14.—When the train carrying the Seventy-first New York Regiment to the border stopped here this morning hundreds of militiamen dashed from the train and seized, the contents of a bread wagon standing near the depot and also took all the fruit from a vendor's cart. Then they went across the street to a small bak- ery and rifled it. Officers and soldiers with rifles rounded up the food hunters and took them back to their coaches, after compelling them to pay for every- thing taken. The soldiers complained they had not eaten since 10 o’clock yes- terday morning. Soldiers Attack Cleveland Stores and Carry Off Food, CLEVELAND, o., July 14.—Seven hun- dred militiamen from Eastern states, passing through Cleveland over the Nickel Plate Railroad, left the train yesterday afternoon, when it stopped at the Broadway East Ninth Street Depot and raided nearby stores and commission houses, taking food ant merchandise and destroying considerable goods. Riot calls were turned in and squads of patrolmen were sent to the scene. The soldiers were driven back to the train by a squad of 20 armed men or- dered out by Maj. T. J. Moynahan, commanding the train. The troopers belonged to the Sixth, Ninth, Seventh, Fourteenth, Twelfth and Twenty-third New York Infantry, and the First New York Field Artillery, all from the me- tropolis, and Troop G, from Utica, N. Y. The soldiers took about 200 waterme!- ons, several hams, 20 packages of chew- ing tobacco, a box of stogies, a keg of ale and other booty. The soldiers hadn't had anything to eat for 36 hours, according to stories some of them told Morris Goldheimer, manager of the Cleveland Produce Co Having grappled with the man leading the charge on his stack of watermelons and seeing 35 melons captured in spite of his resistance, he gave the men four baskets of bananas, cantaloupes and to- matoes.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH DR. AKED FINDS GREAT NAVAL BATTLE STIFFENED ‘WAR PARTY’ IN GERMANY — —— —üä—— | Member of Neutral Conference for Mediation Returns From Berlin to Stockholm With Gloomy Report as to Peace. Correspondence of the Associated Press. STOCKHOLM, June 21.—Regardless of the decision history ultimately will re- cord as to victor and vanquished in the great North Sea naval fight of May 71 and June 1. there is no denying the fact that the battle brought a sudden stif- fening to the so-called war party“ in Germany. All talk of Germany being willing to end the war on a basis of the antebellum status quo ended. It is given out in neutral Europe that Germany will require “a slight restifica- tion of her frontier at the expense of Belgium.” It is further asserted that it will be necessary for the central Powers to keep a strip of Servia in order that the railway to Constantino- ple shall always run through friendly“ country. Germany always has main- tained that her colonies should be re- turned to her. It is now added that there must be ‘‘compensation for Ger- man losses in the Congo.“ Something also must be done,“ it is stated, to keep Belgium from being the vassal state of England.“ The Rev. Dr. Charles F. Aked of San Francisco, one of the American delegates to the neutral conference for continuous mediation, sitting in Stock- holm, was in Berlin on a mission of peace at the time of the North Sea fight. It is commonly reported he was there by invitation of the German Gov- ernment. At any rate, he seems to have had no difficulty in obtaining audi- ences from most of the higher officials, The peace conference had entertained the hope that Germany would outline peace terms of a character so extreme- ly. moderate as to command immediate respect in all the neutral countries, thus bringing about a public opinion to which belligerents eventually would have to listen. Dr. Aked brought back a very gloomy report. There seemed to be no thought anywhere that the war would end with- in another year. The new statement of peace terms that would be demanded by the now dominant “war party,“ coupled with the governmental announcement that peace could be had only upon a basis of consideration for the military situation of the opposing armies and vithout consideration or discussion as te the cause of the war, appears to have chilled even the most ardent of the peace advocates abiding in the Swedish capital. Just a short while be- fore the naval battle, the German ele- raent in Stockholm was proclaiming the fact that Germany was willing to bring hostilities to a close and to evacuate all occupied territory, in exchange for the captured German colonies over- seas. — Dr. Aked is sald to have suggested to officials in Berlin that the neutral na- tions would not look with favor upon German retention of any of Belgium and to have received the answer: “The neutral nations are not going to dictate to the 120,000,000 people of the central Powers. We have bought the land of Belgium with our blood. Ger- many must be. protected against future attacks. Shall we give back all we have won at such great cost? Shall we give up the valuable coal and iron lands of France now in our hands? As to Servia and Montenegro, they have had their lesson, I hope. We will leave Austria to deal with them.“ Even the extreme pacificists in Ger- many are said to have told the emissary from the neutral conference that the time was not ripe for overtures of peace. Irrespective of the conflicting claims of victory, it was said the naval fight had lengthened the war by at least 12 months. The only thing the pact- ficists could do now was to wait for the right moment and geize it when it came. Dr. Aked reported to the conference that he found everyhere in Germany the conviction that the German armies cannot be beaten in the field and that the allies cannot exhaust German re- sources. Money and men seemed to be plentiful, he said, and an American living in Berlin asserted there were hundreds of thousands of men, trained to the minute, who had not yet been on any firing line. Extremists of the “war party“ were most confident n their military claims. They asserted they had no fear of the English or Russian armies, because of their de- ficiency in trained officers. It is said Dr. Aked found very little sentiment favoring the United States as a mediatory agent. There is a strong feeling in Germany against the United States, engendered partly, of course, by the submarine controversy. Dr. Aked interviewed in Germany a number of men who in July last issued a protest against the suggested annex- ation of Belgium. This protest de- scribed annexation as ‘‘a political blun- der fraught with grave consequences and calculated not to strengthen, but fatally to weaken the German Empire.” and further stated: e subscribe to the principle that the policy of annex ation in the case of the peoples accus- tomed to political independence is ‘»y be rejected.“ This utterance ts a voice that noth- ing can silence,“ said Dr. Aked. “But, of course, these moderate men are not the only men of influence in Germany, First Day of Debate Discloses That There Will Be No Parti- san Opposition to Measure.

BLUE CHAMBRAY de e 2 Nr. erates rom | on 086 ‘ 2 © POF nn. — FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 14, 1916. — on Body ot Boy Killed bu Shark Found in Creek Continued From Page One. They described it as about nine feet long. The one which killed Bruder at Spring Lake on July 6 was not seen. The one which killed two persons and wounded a third in Matawan Creek was secn and is described as being nine feet long. So the possibility exists that, as many choose to believe, one fish was the slayer. What variety he was is a matter of guessing. Fishennen may be right in thinking that the killing was not done by a true man eater, but by a hammerhead or blue shark driven to it by hunger. Often 12 Feet Long. “For the matter of that, the hammer- head is not all innocence on the scales. ‘It is so fierce,’ says the American Cyclopedia, ‘as to attack persons bath- ing. The hammerhead often attains a length of 12 feet. It has a grayish back with head nearly black, and whitisn belly. This species of shark often, but not always, travels in schools.’ The blue shark is really blue only in the smaller species. The big blue or dusky shark, which is plentiful enough along this coast, has a dark brown back and is dirty white below. The biggest fellows are 12 feet long. “Your true man eater is the great white shark, 30 feet long at his worst and a ton in weight. His natural home is the tropics, but he has been seen in the Mediterranean, near the British Isles and also off the American coast, But providentially the great white shark is rare. Not more than a dozen are caught in a century. The white shark has a terrible cousin, much like himself. This is the big Tiger, or Atwood’s shark, 15 feet long and a hundred pounds in weight for every foot. It has been caught off the Atlantic coast, but in the present cases it has not been suspected. It is too big. Tho mackerel shark may not be guil- ty, but the tribe cannot be absolved off hand: It sometimes grows to 10 feet in length. It is as fighting a fish as any shark when other marine creatures are concerned, but its biographers con- tend that it attacks man only in seilf- defense. Dig One Caught in 1907. The biggest shark captured ‘in this neighborhood in recent years was a thrasher, taken off Amagansett, L. I., in a sturgeon net in June, 1907. It is said to have been 21 feet long and to have weighed 900 pounds. The thrasher is not ordinarily found so far north. Are there instances previous to this summer of the shark attacking man in North Atlantic waters? Investigators have been able to find only two credi- ble incidents. Off Swamscott, Mass., about 10 years ago, the dory of a fish- erman named Joseph Blaney was upset by a shark, which then carried the man eff. Off Atlantic City in’ August, 1906, George Wright, a Pittsburg stock brok- er, Was attacked while swimming from a boat and three toes of his right foot were bitten off. Small and supposedly harmless sharks have been plentiful near these shores. Hardly a bather but has seen their fins within a stone’s throw of the life ropes at the Jersey beaches. A shark eight fcet long was caught at Coney Island on Sept. 1 of last year. One seven feet long was taken there the next day, and on Sept. 3 a monster, reported as 14 feet in length, was added to the kill. These captures were treated as in- teresting incidents. The public did not like the idea of having sharks near them, but remained confident that the shark of the northern waters would not attack. The bather did not take serious- ly the suggestion that the man eater of the Warm seas might move up. Yet three years ago this month Director Townsend of the Aquarium sounded a shark oo South in Winter. “The quit Stream brings to the south shore of Long Island and éven to the Massachusetts coasts many things dis- tinctly tropical,” he sad. We have the sharks in New York harbor; man- eaters or potential man-eaters, I should say. It is nonsense to aay that sharks do not attack men, and southern sharks come here. Of course, they do not stay through a winter.“ So far as the ferocity of the shark in the region of Florida is concerned, evidence is ample. On Sept. 16, 1911, H. C. Rood of Hartford, Conn., wes attacked while bathing at Padblo Beach, near Jacksonville, and bitten on the left arm and thigh. Three days later Thomas A. Shea, pilot of the schooner Wallace A. McDonald, fall overboard at Pensacola and was killed by a shark, which was after ward caught. In November of the same year Jules Antoine fell overboard from the Brit- ish steamer Aldersgate and was almo:t entirely swallowed by a shark, which was shot to death the next day. This shark was 12 feet long. On March 30, 1914, Boatswain Lames berg of the steamer Berney Castle fell from the bridge of the vessel into Ha- vana Harbor, and before a boat could be lowered was eaten by sharks. Reports in the files of the Navy De- partment at Washington bear witncss to the willingness of Pacific sharks to sat men. A gunner’s mate lost a leg while bathing in the harbor of lloilo, P. I., on Jane A., 1901. A coxswain's mate of the Piscataqua, ly- ing in the inner harbor Olongapo, P. I., On Nov. 2, 1904, was seized by the foot, which was badly torn. A salior on the gunboat El Cano, from shore in & rowboat, stuck his finger in a hole in the bottom from which the plug had been lost. A shark amputated his finger. Sharks More Numerous on South At- lantic Coast Than Ever Before. JACKSONVILLE, Fia., July 4— Sharks are more numerous along the Pouth Atlantic Coast this year than ever before within the memory of fish- ermen and boatmen. A manate 14 feet long and weighing 2000 pounds was day. Yesterday a grouper weighing 600 reunds was hit by a steamer and later was picked up by boatmen Sharks recently drove 13 small whales ashore at Pablo Beach. 18 from Jacksonville. Great schovis of sharks, believed to have been carried south- ward by the recent pical storm, have | been sighted in the PAPA ulf of Mexico. ** „ * Bonn FOR SHIP, CHINESE PRINCE Fine Reduced to $25,000 and She Will Clear Sunday. MANILA, July 14—The Collector of Customs has imposed a fine of 50,000 Pesos ($25,000) on the British steamship Chinese Prince. A bond was filed pend- ing an appeal to the courts and the Chinese Prince will clear Sunday. The Chinese Prince, New York: for Penang and other Eastern ports, was seized July 11 as she was about to sail from Manila for Vladivostok and a fine Of 1,000,000 pesos was imposed on account of the fact that 2000 packages consigned to Manila were missing. The packages were confiscated by the British authori- ties at Penang. Some of them were con- signed to the Bank of the Philippines On order.and others to dealers in Ma- nila, who are reported to have been blacklisted by the British. After im- posing the fine of 1,000,000 pesos, the Col- lector of Customs granted a hearing in the case, resulting in a reduction of the fine. * .

BERLIN, via London, July 14.—The agitation in favor of unrestricted submarine warfare contiues to be conducted energetically by the press of the extreme right. The Kreuz Zeitung, increasingly active in propa- ganda of this sort, published an arti- cle, which is: plainly not only an edi- torial statement of the paper's views, but at the same time must be taken as a manifesto of the conservative party. The article demands “that the German Government in respect tH the War of submarines against commerce make use of the freedom of the de- cision which it reserved for itself in the note of May 4 and which has actually been conceded in a manner which amounts to a direct insult by America’s answer to our enemies ab- rogating the declaration of London.” The article declare sthat the cam- paign proposed is “a proper and in- dispensable means for the rapid and victorious ending of the war.” Special Bread at Ordinary Price.

IFALOUS HUSBAND SHOOTS HIS WIFE AND KILLS SELF — Fires at Woman When She k Sitting at Machine Making Baby Clothes. William Turner, a beer bottler, 37 years old, of 2419 South Tenth street, walked into the front room of his sister- in-law’s home, 706 Ann avenue, at 5:20 o'clock last evening and without saying a word fired a bullet into the head of his wife, Mrs. Anna Turner, 24 years old, as she sat at a sewing machine making clothes for the baby which she expected. Turner’s sister-in-law, Mrs. Hannah Kadlek, heard the shot and ran into the front room in time to see Turner step to the front porch and shoot him- self in the right temple. He died at the city hospital half an hour later. His wife is still alive but in a critical con- diton. Her skull was fractured. Mrs. Turner told the, police that her husband was extremely jedlous of her and had accused her of associating with men whom she had hever met. He had been drinking recently, she said. Joseph Turner, 14 years old, Turner’sr son, told the police that he overheard a quarrel between his father and step- mother Tuesday night in which a man’s name was frequently mentioned.

Lee is the stepfather of William K. Lee, 12- year-old heir to $1,500,000. Lee and his mother were arrested on a warrant charging them with kidnaping the boy from White Plains, N. T. The young- ster recently disappeared, and his guardian, De Witt Lyon of Port Chester, N. Y., had the warrant sworn out for the arrest of the Lees. The boy was later found in this city. : Lee sald after his arrest that he had simply taken the boy with him when he came away from White Plains for a visit. The cases were adjourned here until next Monday. Lee and his mother are out on bonds of $1000 each. BELL-ANS Absolutely Removes Indigestion.

J. Melt- zer of the Rockefeller Institute re- ceived many inquiries today regarding his treatment of infantile paralysis, which was the only one recommended at the special conference of the Acad- emy of Medicine held last night to dis- cuss the disease now epidemic in New York City. He urged the treatment of all cases by intra-spinal injections of solutions of adrenalin.

Theer is no danger involved.“ The physician declared he had great faith in this treatment because of the remarkable results it accomplished with monkeys which had been artificially in- fected with infantile paralysis. In con- junction with other physicians he has conducted a long series of clinical ex- periments in this direction. Dr. Flexner Tells of Research. Dr. Simon Flexner of the Rockefeller Institute at the meeting defined infantile paralysis, or acute anterior poliomyeli- tis, as an infectious and communicable disease which is caused by the invasion of the central nervous organs—the spinal cord and |rain—by a minute, filterable micro-organism which has now been se- cured in an artificial culture, distinctly visible under the higher powers of the microscope.”’ He then described the way in which it is thought the disease is spread and the means known to prevent it. Dr. Haven Emerson, Health Commis- sioner of New York, pointed out that during the first six months of 1916 15 times as many children had died diarrhoea as of infantile paralysis - six times as many of measles, 10 times as many of diphtheria and four times as many of whooping cough, without ex- citing a panic. 1 The summary of the disease made by Dr. Flexner represents the conclusions reached by the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, of which he is the director of laboratories. Dr. Flexner said: 3 “The virus of infantile paralysis, as the micro-organism causing: it is termed, exists constantly in the central nervous organization and upon the mucous mem- brane of the nose and throat and of the intestines of persons suffering from the disease. It occurs less frequently in the ether internal organs and it has not been detected in the general circulating blood of patients. “Although the micro-organism of in- fantile paralysis is now known, the dif- ficulties attending its artificial cultiva- tion and identification under the micro- scope are such as to make futile the employment of ordinary bacteriological tests for its detection. Nevertheless, the virus can be detected by inoculation tests upon monkeys, which animals de- velop a disease corresponding to in- fantile paralysis in human beings. How Virus Spreads in System. The virus enters the body, as a rule. if not exclusively, by way of the mu- cous membrane of the nose and throat. Having gained entrance to those easily accessible parts of the body, multipli- cation of the virus occurs there, after which it penetrates to the brain and spinal chord by way of the lymphatic channels which connect the upper nasal membrane with the interior of the skull. Whether the virus ever enters the body in any other way is unknown. “Since epidemics of. infantile paralysis Always arise during the period of warm or summer weather, they have been tnought of as possibly being connected with or dependent on insect life. The blood-sucking insects have especially come under suspicion. Experiments have been made with biting flies, bed- bugs, mosquitoes and with lice. Neither mosquitoes nor lice seem able to take the virus from the blood of infected monkeys or to retain it for a time in a living state. In one instance bedbugs have been made to take up the virus from the blood of monkeys, but thev did not con- vey it by biting to healthy monkeys. Certain experiments did indicate that the biting stable fly could both withdraw the virus from the blood of infected and reconvey it to the blood of healthy mon- keys, which became paralyzed. “But more recent studies have failed to confirm the earlier ones. Moreover, experimentally inoculated monkeys dif- fer in one way from human beings suf- fering from infantile paralysis, for, while the virus may appear in the blood of the former, it has never been de- tected in the blood of the latter. Fly May Carrie the Virus. “The ordinary or domestic fly may become contaminated with the virus con- tained in the sections of the body and serve as the agent of its transportation to persons and to food with which they come into contact. Domestic flies, ex- perimentally contaminated with the virus, remain infective for 48 hours or longer. While our present knowledge excludes insects from being active agents in the dissemination of infantile paralysis, they nevertheless fall under suspicion as being potential mechanical carriers of the virus of that disease. “Studies carried out in various coun- tries in which infantile paralysis has been epidemic all indicate that, in ex- tending from place to place or point to point, the route taken is that of ordi- nary travel. This is equally true wheth- er the route is by water or land, along a simple highway or the line of a railroad. In other words, the evidence derived from this class of studies confirms the evidence obtained from other sources in connecting the distributing agency inti- mately with human beings and their activities, “Not all children and relatively few adults are susceptible to infantile paralysis. Young children are more sus- ceptible, generally speaking, than older ones, but no age oan be said to be abso- lutely Insusceptible. When several chil- dren exist m a family or in a group, one or more may be affected while thé oth- ere escape, of seem to escape. The closer the family or other groups are studied by physicians, the more numer- ous, it now appears, are the number of cases among them. “Paralysia is a Misnemer, “This means that the term infan- ‘tile paralysis is a misnomer, since the disease arises without causing slight and fleeting paralysis as to be difficult of detection. The light or abortive cases, as they are called, in- dicate a greater general susceptibil- ity than has always been recognized, and their discovery promises to have far-reaching consequences in respect to the means employed to limit the spread or eradicate food of the dis- ease. “The only drug which has shown any useful degree of activity is hex- amethylenanin, which is itself germ- icidal and has the merit of entering the membranes, as well as the sub- stance of ths spinal cord and brain in which the virus is deposited. But this chemical to be effective only experiments on monkeys have shown very early in the course of the in- oculation and only in a part of the animals treated. “Efforts to modify and improve this drug by chemical means have up to the present been only partly success- ful. The experiments have not yet reached the point where the new drugs are applicable to the treatment of human cases of infantile paraly- 818.“ Some of His Conclusions, Flexner concluded with these deductions and applica- Dr. practical tions: 7 The chief mode of demonstrat’? an veyapce of the virus is t™ough the agency of human beings, Whether still other modes of disse“iination exist is unknown. Accordirg to our present knowledge, the virus leaves the body in the secretions of the nose and throat and in 9 aischarge from the intes. tines. The conveyers of the virus in- clude persons ill of infantile paralysis in any of its several forms and irre- spective of whether they are paralyzed or not and such healthy persons wh» may have become contaminated by at- tendande on or assotiation with the ilk. How numerous the latter class may be 18 * own. ut al! attendants on or associates „Af the sick are suspect. These healthy carriers rarely themselves fall lil ef the disease; they may, however, be tre source of infection in others. On the other hand, the fact that infantile par- alysis is very rarely communicated in general hospitals to other persons. whether doctors, nurses or patients, in- dicates that its spread is subject t. reddy control under restricted and su- pervised sanitary conditions. The chief means by which the secce- tions of the nose and throat are dis- seminated is through the act of kissing, coughing or sneezing. Hence, during tho prevalence of an epidemic of infantile paralysis, care. should be exercised t restrict the distribution as far as pos- sible through these common means. Habits of self-denial, care and clean ness and consideration for the public welfare can be made to go very far in limiting the dangers from these sources. Means of Communication Many. Moreover, since the disease attacks by preference young children and in- fants in whom the secretions from the rose and mouth are wiped away by mother or nurse, the fingers of those persons readily become contaminated. Through attentions on other children or the preparation of food which may be contaminated, the virus may thus be conveyed from the sick to the healthy. The conditions which obtain in a Lcousehold in which a mother waits on the sick child and attends the other children are directly contrasted with those existing in a well-ordered hos- pital; the one is a menace, the other a protection to the community. Moreover, tn homes the practice of carrying small children about and comforting them is the rule, through which not only the hands but other parts of the body and the clothing of the parents may become contaminated. “Flies also often collect about the nese and mouth of patients ill of in- fantile paralysis in homes unprotected by screens. This fact relates to the do- mestic fly, which, becoming grossly con- taminated with the virus, may deposit it on the nose and mouth of healthy per- sons or upon food or eating utensils. To what extent the biting stable fly is to be incriminated as a carrier of in- fection is doubtful, but we already know enough to wish to exclude from the sick, and hence from menacing the well, all objectionable household in- sects.

Care exercised not to scatter .the secretions of the nose and throat by spitting, coughing and sneezing, the free use of clean handker- chiefs, cleanliness in habits affecting especially the hands and face, changes of clothes, should all serve to dimin‘sh this danger. “In the and the early detection an! tselation of the cases of infantile paral- ysis in all of its forms, with the t- tendant control of the household from which they come, will have to be re- lied upon as the chief measure of star- ing the progress of the epidemic. “The degree of susceptibility of c*il- dren and other members of the com- munity to infantile paralysis is rela- tively small and is definitely lower than to such communicable diseases as measles, scarlet fever and diphtheric. This fact in itself constitutes a measure of control; and while it does not jus- tify the abatement of any practicable means which may be employed to limit and suppress the epidemic, it should tend to prevent a state of overanxiety and panic from taking hold of the com- munity.

In the present instance it is too early in the course of the epi- demic to calculate the death rate, which may prove to be considerably lower than it now seems to be. “Of those who survive, a part make complete recoveries, in which no crip- ming whatever remains. This number is greater than is usually supposed, be- cause it includes not only the relative large number of slight or abortive casés, but also a considerable number ot cases in which more or less of par- alysis was present at one time. The disappearance of the paralysis may be rapid or gradual—may be complete in a few days or may require several weeks or months. “The remainder, and unfortunately not a small number, suffer some degree o* permanent crippling. But even in this class the extent to which recovery from the paralysis may occur is very great. In many instances the residue of paralysis may be so small as not seri- ously to hamper the life activities of the individual; in others in whom it is greater it may be relieved or minimized by suitable orthopedic treatment. Recove Often Slow Process, “But what is imperative to keep in mind is that the recovery of paralyzed parts and the restoration of lost mus- cular power and function is a process which extends over a long period of time —that is, over months and even years. So that even a severely paralyzed child who has made little recovery of function by the time the acute stage of the dis- ease is over, may go on gaining for weeks, months and even years until in the end he has regained a large part of Lis losses. “Fortunately, only a very small hum- ber of the attacked are left severely and helplessly crippled. Lamentable as it is “There exists at present no safe meth- tion, and no practicable method of The prevention of disease must be accomplished 6ry from the diesaes is a spontaneous process which can be greatly assisted by medical and surgical care. Infantile paralysis is an infectious disease to a definite and specific micro-organism or virus; recovery is accomplished by a process of immunization which takes place during the acute period of the dis- ease. “The téndency of the disease is to- ward recovery, and it is chiefly or only because the paralysis in some instances involves those portions of the brain and spinal cord which control respiration or breathing and the heart’s action, that death results. Finally it should be added that not since 1907, at which time a great epi- demic of infantile paralysis or poliomye- litis, appeared in this country, has the country or this State or city been free of the disease. Hach summer since has seen some degree of accession in thé number of the cases; the rapid rise in the number of cases this year probably excteds that of any pfevious year. But it must be remembered that in 1908 sev- eral thousand cases occurred in the greater city—poassibly indeed many cases of and deaths due to the disease were never reported as such. Hence the present experience, severe and serious as it is, is not something new; the disease has been severely epi- demic before and was brought under control. The knowledge regarding it now is far greater than it was,in 1908; and the forces of the city which are dealing with the epidemic are probably better organized and in more general co-operation than ever before. Thé outlook, therefore, should not be re- garded as discouraging.” CITY NOW BELIEVED TO BE FREE OF INFANTILE PARALYSIS Suspected Case Is Diagnod#ded as Ty- phoid Fever—Truins Will Still Be Watched. S. A. Baldwin, city bacterlologist, to- day made a report to Dr. W. C. Wood- ruff of the city health department, di- agnosing the case of Marie Cole, 4 years old, supposed to be suffering from in- fantile paralysis, as typhoid fever. The city is now believed to be free of the disease as Dr. Woodruff thinks Gerland McLin, infant son of A. N. A. McLin, 3806A Maffitt avenue, the only other reported case, does not have paralysis.

Mn OPPOSES GAS AGREEMENT MADE BY MAYOR Alderman Says He Will Make Investigation and Hold. Pub- lic Hearings in August. Barney L. Schwartz, member of the Board of Aldérmen and chairman of a Special committee appointed March 10 to investigate the manufacture of gas in St. Louis and to report to the board on additional proceedings before the State Board of Public Service with the object of reducing the price of gas, expressed the opinion today that the agreemént between Mayor Kiel and the Laclede Gas Light Co. is not satisfactory. He said the reduction in price of gas should be lower than 75 cents for the first 7000 feet. Accordingly, Schwartz said, he pur- poses to conduct a thorough investiga- tion of the so-called gentlemen's agreement,” as it relates to fixing of as rates, with the committee of which he is chairman, and hold public hear- ings after the August primaries in the aldermanic chamber, at which all phases of the agreement between the Mayor and the gas company and the rates involved will be discussed at length. For the reason that gas now is only A by-product and secondary in consiii- eration of profit to coke, Alderman Schwartz believes the Laclede company can make a lower rate. There is also a legal question involved, Schwartz said, as he believes the State Board of Pub- lic Sérvicé aloné has a fright to fix —— | rates, and he holds that the Mayors attempt to agree to a certain rate is without legal effect. Neither the Mayor nor thé Board of Aldermen, he says, have a right to ab- rogate provisions of an ordinance for the purpose of changing rates or the quality of gas. Schwartz also said he intends to go before the State Public Service Board with data and information tending to show that gas rates in St. Louis are too high. He has not called a meeting of his committee, he said, for the reason that when he was ready to do so the spring cumpaign was in progress and he thought he might be accused of inject- ing thé issue into the campaign for po- litical favor. He said St. Louis is in a parallel sit- uation with Indianapolis in respect to rroximity of coal supply and transpor- tation facilities, with Indianapolis hav- ing a much lower rate on gas. He gave the Indianapolis rates as follows: For the first 50,000 feet. 55 cents; for second 50,000 feet, 45 cents; for all over 100,000 feet, 40 cents. These rates, he said, became effective Jan. 1, 1914. In- dianapolis is furnished gas of 602 heat units, he said, as against an average of 600 heat units for St. Louis gas under the new agreement. SCHEDULE OF NEW GAS RATES FILED JEFFERSON CITY July 14.—Attor- neys for the Laclede Gas Light Co. of St. Louis today filed with the State Public Service Commission a new sched- ule of gas rates to go into effect in St. Louis Aug. 1. The commission refused t) make an order allowing the new schedule to become effective Aug. 1, stating that word from the City of St. Louis regarding the new rates would be awaited. John F. Bulfin, auditor of the Gas Co., said the new rates would save con- sumers approximately $220,000 and alse that the reduction in rates to industrial concerns from 90 to 60 cents per 1000 feet to 7 and 55 cents would be instrumental in bringing many manufacturing plants to the city. depositor has nothing to do hut to sign h or Aer name NATIONAL BANK PROTECTION Sor your SAVINGS We Invite You to Attend Our Exhibit of Renewed Cadillac Cars AT 3917 OLIVE STREET Which Opens Monday, July 17th, and # Continues Through Sunday, July 23d ff wef @ This exhibit will be a revelation f those who judge used cars by the average type.

W. men had geized a box car to use as headquarters and started firing when the officers ordered them to va- cate. The officers returned the fire from behind a barricade of ties. Frank Case, who carried an automatic pistol and a revolver, was among those arrested. He had escaped from under- Sheriff Swanson yesterday afternoon as he was being taken from the court- room to jail in an automobile. Special officers ‘eft Salina today to intercept a trainload of I.

If the city and county authorities of Central and Western Kansas take the advice of Gov. Capper they will pro- ceed at once to put the I. W. W. agi- tators at work in chain gangs.

He asked if any addi- ticnal legislation was desired and Mr. Wilson replied that he was satisfied with the work of the House and had no fur- ther recommendations. Kitchin said a suggestion that the House take three- day adjournments until the Senate shall catch up with its work had not met with general approval because it was necessary to stay in session in order to receive conference reports. Therefore, he said, the House would mark time by adjourning from day to day. He esti- mated that Congress should be able to adjourn by Aug. 10. The executive program suggested to Corgress which has been completed by the House included the Philippine and Porto Rican bills, preparedness legisla- tion, the revenue bills, Mississippi flood control, shipping, rural credits and con- servation bills. While Representative Kitchin was at the White House Senator Gallinger, the Senate minority leader, was announcing on the floor that Republicans or that body never contemplated a filibuster pagainst Government shipping, revenue or any other legislation pending and that they would co-operate with the Demo- crats to complete the program and ad- journ. The legislative program is not in our hands,” said Senator Gallinger, and ‘whatever the majority wants will have the minority’s co-operation. The minor- ity is in favor of the child labor, work- men's compensation and immigration bills and hope they may be passed.” Will you support the vocational edu- cation bil?” aske] Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia. “Yes, that is another good bill,” said Senator Gallinger. Will you support the constitutional! amendment for woman suffrage?” asked Senator Thomas. “The Senator from New Hampshire will,” replied Gallinger, but I cannot speak with authority for my associates regarding that measure.“ The general dam bill, amended from the form it passed the Senate, regulat- ing water-power development in naviga- ble streams, was passed by the House today, 51 to 17. The water power measure limits the ase of water power rights to 50 years, with provision for renewal or acquisition br the Government.

As you always seem to think of the public's best good, and in many instances have caused a de- cided betterment in affairs, I am appealing to you to start another reformation. The police have given me warning to provide a new garbage can. I fully appreciate the necessity of taking every precaution to avoid illness, and thoroughly be- lieve that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” but there are two sides to every question. Right here is where I crave your as- sistance. In a very short time I have been forced Why? Simply be- cause the garbage collectors throw the cans over the fence or down in the alley, and in a very Short time they are destroyed. Lids won't fit on bent cans, and dented cans soon leak. Now, have the taxpayers no rights whatever? Must we sit helplessly by and see our property destroyed and go on buying new garbage cans at the command of the police and say nothing? If we have no voice, let the city provide the cans and they will goon see the bill go higher. I went myself, one morning, and kindly asked the negro to set the can on a little stand I had provided for his convenience. For answer, he tossed the can over the fence onto the sidewalk, making a big dent in the can. Being a South- ernor, my blood boiled, and I should have liked to rid the earth of one impudent nigger. Please take this up in your paper and help to compel those in charge to see that the nights of the people are regarded somewhat. MRS. C., Vernon avenwa Warning to Girls. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In the Bertha Elrod case, which has just shocked the people of this city, there is a great lesson to other young women. Girls, don’t trust every man who smiles on you; there is about one 1 man in every 60 that you would be safe with and could trust. 4 If you select a man, you had better, as Billy Bunday says, “let your father or brother look him over first.” It is the safest way. ONF WHO KNOWS. The River des Peres. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I would like to call the attention of your read- ere to a most disgraceful condition existing in St. Louis, which seems to arouse no feeling of public indignation. I refer to the present state of our River des Peres in Forest Park. For several years we have been allowing the outlying districts of our city to use this stream a8 a sewer and have made no effort to stop the practice. The result is that now, instead of a beautiful brook with sparkling water running through our park, we have a stinking, filthy, sewer. Progressive cities try their best to preserve Streams in their parks. We fill our full of filth * 31 and make it a public nuisance, due to stench and unesightliness. The citizens should insist that this condition be 5 dens away wth at once, as a health measure as as a step forward in beautifying the park. We should make the outlying districts build their den sewer and not pollute our River des Peres “2, $ ~ 1 ny te —— nt r 5 2 GES * N We 2 * re e, A . 4 11 30. . * . 22 5 * * — * ; 4 ＋* 2 1 1 * — e 1 * ern ams aN > ~~, — +e, tA > * ~ n 12 > * * 2 >» 82 — — > 2 S + Jed * d - 2 0 “44% eS ae > +443 9" 1 — 4 8 * N tery an 4 ; ; * — — > 1 * * * — 4 — * ay ; 710. .™ . 3 3 Wed: 8 7 whe 7 2 N . a * ee PAG „ n * W fe 3 — ry WPS 4 5 > * > 8 Piya “ N. * n „„eine mer * ** 8 " ‘ * * + * = = — 2 + 5 — 5 2 „ ee — * oe » Rr mw my — Pw Fhe . — r 1 * 1 1 8 — * n EF — * 8 1 * 1 . 2 .

And then, bereaved of even hate, lie down And bathe in sweetened springs thy paled lips, With serpents creep along Life’s gemmed gown Of yellow lights. And when thy hate-child slips Into cool airs and summer winds of love Surrender sense to Thought and link the hour With pageantries of lurid lights, and move With debauched fiends to Nature's scented bower— Nor mind the rant of Discord’s doomed heirs— Reach out thy hands as to invisible fonts Of fresh rose leaves! Dismiss the ghost of world- ly cares; But lay thine ear on Nature’s pulsing breast, And in such ideal self · subsisting haunts As Nature treasures to heal the sore depressed, Thou sleepest near a tragic wnappeased love.

REVOLT SETS IN AGAINST WHAT DO YOU SUPPOSE— CHURCH BELLS! From the De Kalb County (Mo.) Herald. Why is a church bell? A preacher and his wife told the Herald last night that a chureh bell is a nuisance, and why are they not right about it? Is it necessary in a family in which father has a watch and mother a watch and the boys and giris.a watch apiece, and all of them have a family clock in the front room and another in the dining room—is it necessary that a church bell should ring and rack the church building just to let these people know it is half past nine o’clock, and then again to tell them it is ten, and then again to tell them it is half past ten, and again to let them know it is eleven o'clock? And if by any hook or crook it could be proved that a church bell is a necessity, why have four—all of them making a noise together? A church bell is a great deal like the buttons on the back of a man’s coat—it is used now because former generations had it. It is here because it is here. Dickory, dickory dock, The mouse ran up the clock. The clock was in a lady’s hose, And hell resulted, goodness knows. An American aviator in France chased a black fokker yesterday which was thought to be Boelke’s. However, as the German did not come back and kill his pursuer, it was probably someone else.

And another ex-Gevernor (Stone) is in Washington as right-hand bower to President Wilson, in endeavoring to avoid war, creditably, and Champ Clark is also rendering the President valuable aid in important issues.

HE late Richard Harding Davis was once persuaded to dine with a new-rich millionaire in a cream-col- ored palace in Fifth avenue. The millionaire told how much every- thing had cost—how much his Ming vases had cost—how much his Gobelin tapestries had cost, the price of his Louls Setze furniture, and so forth. After dinner the man produced, wit. the cigars, a bottle of 12-year-old bran- dy. He told how much this had cost, of course. 7 “Yes, sir.“ said the millionaire, that stuff cost me just“ “Excuse me. said Davis, holding uo his glass, but it’s so very good, would you mind letting me have about . worth more of it, please?“ — Washington Star.

It is a superstition among the Igor- rotes that if you are carrying a tunch of bananas and meet a tiger there will not be a single banana missing when the tiger gets through his meal. You can cure your dog of fleas by shaving him and polishing him with floor wax. The fleas slip off, and if he is a high dog the shock of the fall gives 'em aphasia, and they wander away, forgetting the dog’s address, If he is a low dog the fleas climb back again, and your work has been fruitless.

N a certain provincial art gallery is a picture entitled Saved, rep- resenting a large Newfoundland dog standing over a childswhom it had res- cued from the river.

Unrewarded Merit. i a YOUNG fellow was looking over a fence watching a girl milk a cow in an open field, when suddenly he observed a young and excited ball, with his head lowered and tail cocked high tn the air, rushing madly toward her. The youth called out to warn her of the approaching danger, but she just glanced at the bull and con- tinued calmly to milk the cow, Still the infuriated animal rushed townrd the dauntiess girl, and then, when it was almost upon der, it stopped short, gave a loud bellow and galloped away to the farther side of the menandow. The young fellow now ventured to ask the girl how she kae the ball would not touch her. “Oh,” was the gentle reply, “this cow's his mother-in-law.” Approval.
