W Hp FLYIN | UBOAT BY TRIk German Admiralty Charges Brit- ish Patrol Open Hidden Ports and Fired on Foe. | BERLIN, by wireless to the Associated Press via Sayville, Nov. 4—The German Admiralty has furnished to the Associ- ated Press correspondent the details of what is characterized as a second Bara- long case. A British patrol ship, flying American colors, it is declared, after destroying submarine U-41, deliberately ran down a rowboat with the only two survivors of the undersea boat, in an endeavor to remove the only witnesses. It is alleged that England has since prevented the intended victims, who were almost miraculously saved, from communicating the news to their own Government. The incident, according to the Admi- ralty, occurred Sept. 24, 1915, and has only just been learned of through an invalid- ed prisoner transferred to Switzerland. The -submarine, according to the Ad- miralty account, had halted in the neighborhood of the Scilly Isles for ex- amination of a steamer under the Amer- ican flag, apparently an innocent mer- chantman. The steamer ostensibly prepared to lower a boat, but when the submarine had approached to within 300 yards, the supposed merchantman suddenly opened concealed ports and began firing from two cannon and also with rifles, the American flag flying the whole time, the account continues. The submarine, ,irrepatably damaged, went under but was able to come to the surface later, for an instant. Lieut. Crompton, severely wounded, and Petty Officer Godau, managed’ to crawl out through an open hatch before the sub- marine sank forever. The survivors ul- timately managed to swim to an empty boat. The steamer observing this, ac- cording to the Admiralty details, headed full speed for the boat, not to save but to ram it, placing a lookout in the steamer’s bow to facilitate accurate steering. The Germans at the last mo- ment sprang from the boat and clung to the wreckage of it for a half hour when the steamer finally picked them up. ; Lieut. Crompton, wounded, and his comrade were left without the slight- est medical attention, in a small cage on the steamer’s deck until her arrival at Falmouth the following day. it is declared, although the Lieutenant had a double fracture of the jawbone, a broad wound across the nose and cheek, wounds in the left temple and on the finger and an eye shot out. It was not until Sept. 2 that the Lieu- tenant was transferred to a shore hos- } pital, clad at the time only in his under- ciothing, being transferred on Nov. 6 to the military prison in York Castle, whence the wounded officer, whose wounds were still open and who was threatened With loss of the other eye, was sent in mid-December to Dyffryn, ales, the account states. Transfer to Switserland Refused. . A British surgeon later proposed to ransfer the wounded officer as totally a to Switzerland, and a Swiss mission of surgeons twice voted that ae thus sent, but the British Surgeon- seneral, it is declared, vetoed the plan the officer wan retained in Eng- ‘An Admiralty officer, recalling the per reports of some time ago a British Government, having || tory Humidity at 7 ™ m. today, 66 per cent.

Drexel yesterday obtained an interum injunction for a fortnight in the British courts on her application to prevent her husband from serving her with pa- pers in an action in the French courts to obtain money which the British courts recently decided belonged to her. It was stated in court that Drexel had started an action in France to fight Mrs. Drexel’s claim. 3.9 feet: no Last June a London court awarded Mr Drexel a yearly allowance of £10,000. In 1913 the Drexels executed a separation agreement and in 1915 Mrs. Drexel sued her husband to recover money under the separation deed. 4 * Trovatore “ yeas sung, about 2700, a MEET $12,000 LOSS There Are 32 St. Louisans Whol Will Be Assessed About $400 Each. HIGH PAY FOR THE STARS Attendance at Carmen and Il Trovatore Not Nearly What Management Expected. The 82 St. Louis guarantors of the Ellis Opera Co.'s productions of Car- men and II Trovatore at the Coliseum this week face a deficit of about $12,000 which they will be forced to meet. It is estimated that the average amount each guarantor will be out will be $49. The Ellis company, which was com- posed of singers from the Metropolitan and Chicago grand ppera companies, including Geraldine Farrar, Marrie Rap- pold, Louise Homer, Morgan Kingston, and others, demanded, it is said, a guarantee of $10,000 for each of the two performances. For the first time a special guarantee was given to cover local expenses, making a total guarantee of about $27,000, or $13.500 a performance. The paid attendance Wednesday even- ing when “Carmen” was presented, was about 3700, and Thursday night, when porter learned today. ft had, figured that an average @ nee of 5000 each night a. would be nega. to meet the ex- penses. i Post Dispat 4 amount taken in is known only ti Elizabeth Cueny, secretary of the Opera Committee, and one or two oti ers. They did not care to divulge any figures, owing to the absence of B. F. Bush, the chairman, now in New York, to whom they must present their report before it is made public. Tom Randolph, chairman of the Na- tional Bank of Commerce Board, who served as treasurer for the committee. was asked by a reporter the exact defi- cit. Randolph looked at the reporter a moment, then threw up his hands with a spare me’ attitude and turned to other business waiting him on hie desk. But in the absence of the cérret amount it is known that this is the heaviest loss which a group b: opera guarantors in St. Louis have ever had to face. The guarantee to the company for each performance was from $2300 to $3200 higher than ever before, excluding engagements of the Metropolitan of New York at the Coliseum and Robison Field, when there was no guarantee. Guarantee Was High. The total guarantee, including local expenses, was from $6300 to $6700 higher a performance than ever before. The total guarantee to the Ellis troupe ior two performances was only $200 les: than the guarantee for four perform- ances of the Chicago Grand Opera- Co., at the Coliseum in 1911; and only $1890 less than the guarantee for each of three seasons of four performances of the Chicago Grand Opera Co. at the Odeon. The San Cario Grand Opera Co. gave 15 performances at the Odeon in Novem- ber, 1914, with Constantino and Gerville- Reache as guest artists. The total re- ceipts were about $24,000, covering ail expenses. The Boston-Pavlowa aggre- gation gave four performances in the Odeon in October, 1916, with a guarantee of $6000 a performance. The receipts covered all expenses. $50,000,000 LOAN TO RUSSIA Money to Be Used for Paying for War Munitions in U. 8. NEW YORK, Nov. 4—Negotiations were completed yesterday by which a syndicate headed by the National City Co., which is controlled by the Nationa! City Bank interests, for a loan of 880, 000,000 to~the Russian Government, the proceeds of which will be used princip- ally for paying for war munitions. The loan will bear interest at 56% per cent.

Special traing were engaged to bring to Shadow Hawn residents of Jersey City, Newark, Trenton and other sec- tions of New Jersey and the Wilson managers said many more Democrats would come by automobile. The Presi- dent is to begin his speech at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon. To his friends here early today the President expressed confidence over the ‘Outcome of the election Tuesday. The attack made on the President last night by Col. Roosevelt went with- out official notice here today. Thus far he has mentioned neither Col. Roosevelt nor Mr. Hughes by name in any of his speeches. John M. Parker, Progressive candi- date for Vice President, telegraphed from Michigan to Mr. Wilson the fol- lowing: “Permit me to extend congratula- which appears to de assured.

Louis Grain Men at Even Money on Wilson, Betting odds on the presidential elec- tion tightened in Wilson’s favor on the Merchants’ Exchange today. Some small wagers were made at even money, but the odds on Hughes against Wilson were mostly 10 to 9. William T. Hill, president of the J. II. Teasdale Commission Co., bet $1100 at 10 to 9, taking the Hughes end with sev- eral grain men, the largest single bet being $100. Carl L. Wright of the Aide Bros.- Wright Grain Co., wired commission houses in New York and Chicago offer- ing to bet §1000 even that Wilson would poll more popular votes than Hughes. The bet was not taken. A customer of the Wagner Grain Co. at Akron, O., wired Wilber Christian, the firm’s St. Louis represenfitive, to bet $800 against $1000 on Wilson. Chris- tian was unable to place the wager here, in Chicago or in New York.

Election next n Polls open from 7 8 Letter to Chief Young: Says Shifting of Patrolmen on Duty Is Desirable. Thé Election Board today sent to Chief of Police Young a letter re- garding the disposition of the police force at the 500 .precinct polling places for Tuesday's election. In the letter, Chairman Drabelle of the board expresses his disapointment that it has been decided not to make the usyal shift of polibemen, in order that policemen may be on duty at personally acquainted. President Thompson of the Police Board has announced that this shift- ing of policemen, which has been Practiced at every recent election, as a precaution against police conniv- ance with election irregularities, will not be ordered this year. Drabelle, in his letter, said that he considered this shifting plan as a desir- able means of preventing policemen from failjng to do their duty for fear of ward workers whom they might know on their regular beats. Young Discusses Order. Chief Young said to a Post-Dispatch reporter that, even without any particu- lar effect at shifting men, it would sel- dom happen that a patrolman would be assigned to a polling place on his regu- lar beat. Two men are sent to each polling place, and as in the outlying residence sections there are not enough patrolmen to go around, men will neces- sarily be provided from other districts. A Republican protest against Thomp- son's plan was presented to the Police | Board at yesterday’s meeting by Mayor Kiel, City Chairman Schmoll, Collector Koeln and Congressman Dyer. Thomp- son said to them that he thought it best to have policemen at polling places where they were acquainted, in order that they might prevent ‘fraud by im- personation.”’ Thompson promised that the election would be fairly conducted, and that an immediate investigation would be made of places where the Republicans said they expected fraudulent registration. polling pl@ces where they are not Republican ‘Nominee Greeted in New York by Crowds Who Hear Open Air Addresses. — NEW YORK, Nov. I. — Charles E. Hughes, invading the downtown busi- ness section of New York during to- day, made five speeches in which he at- tacked the Wilson administration, de- clared for the maintenance of American rights throughout the world and assert- ec he was “opposed to treating the American business man as a eee character.“ Large crowds. of business men and women, on their way to and from lunch- eon today, cheered Hughes at every stop. The first of his addresses was made to a gathering held under the auspices of the Young Men's Republican Club, at Broadway and Twenty-sixth street. From there he went to Union Square, where a platform had been erected in the open for him. The other rneetings were in Lafayette stand on Lower Broadway, where he addressed voters of the Twenty-third Assembly District, the Commercial Travelers’ Sound Money League and the Wom- er.’s Bureau of the Hughes Alliance, re- spectively. Foltows Taft on Piatform. At the Sound Money League meeting he followed former President Taft as a speaker, entering the meeting place by the front or as Taft left by a side entrance.

Two Cases in Seventh Ward. Two of the cases are in the Seventh Ward, Twelfth Precinct. Applications for registration wers submitted Thurs- day by two men whose names and ages were given as Benny McGovern, 24 and Charles C.

Two men giving the same names and approximate ages, and giving their aldress as 1829A Park avenue, were en- rolled Sept. 18, the Board discovered. An application for registration as an absentee was submitted to the board, signed with the name of Frank Jones of 1416 Pine street. On being questioned, Jones said he did not sign the applica- tion. The board believed Jones was telling the truth, and recommended that the notary who took the affidavit, and the witnesses who signed it, be ques- tioned.

WOMAN FIRES SHOT WHEN MOTORIST STOPS NEAR HOME County Resident Says He Was Try- ing to Remove Obstruction That Had Been Piaced in Road. The efforts of Mrs. R. A. Vogt of Wellington and Mount Vernon avenues, in Musick‘s subdivision, north of Uni- versity City, to prevent casual motorists from driving their machines over Wel- lington avenue, a private thoroughfare, resulted today in a complaint against her in Clayton by Frank P. Lawrence, who lives on Walton avenue, three blocks north of the Vogt home. Lawrence was halted while driving his machine to a garage in the neighbor- hood, about 10 o’clock last night, by a stone obstruction six inches high across the entrance to the street. He left his car and began clearing a passage when a window in the Vogt home was raised and a shot fired at him. Prosecuting Attorney Ralph told Law- rence he would ask Mrs. Vogt to come to his office and explain. her actions. She gained notoriety in July of last year by capturing a burglar in her home who entered while she was alone in the shoot at him. Three attempts to force an entrance to her home have recently been made, she said, and she, thought another was being made when she was awakened last night by a crash. She raised Her win- dow, dhe said, and fired at the ground, before she noticed the automobile stand- ing before the house.

BLOOMERSDJIK CASE CITED Proposal, if It Is Made, Would Abolish Enforced Discharge of Freight at Kirkwall. LONDON, Nov. 4—A special dispatch from Amsterdam features a statement of the Berlin Kreuz Zeitung that Ger- many has decided to make the safety of neutral ships carrying neutral cargoes dependent upon guarantees that no part of such cargoes shall be landed, wheth- er through British compulsion or not, at any British port. Such guarantees, according to the Kreuz Zeitung, can consist only in for- mal undertakings by Great Britain and such an undertaking will be recognized by Germany only from case to case. This is taken to mean that in event of any neutral cargo or part thereof being landed in England, the German Government immediately will cease to recognize the inviolability of ships. The Berlin paper implies that the case of the Dutch freighter Bloomersdijk, which was sunk by a German subma- rine off Nantucket Oct. 8, will be argued along these lines and it will be contend- ed that since the intermediate desti- nation was Kirkwall there was no guar- antee that the whole cargo would reach Holland. The British press also infers from a Berlin dispatch summarized in the Koelnische Zeitung that Germany pro- poses to sink all neutral ships, whether bearing neutral cargoes or otherwise, unless Great Britain consents to abandon the right to compel discharges at Kirk- wall of any part of a neutral cargo sus- pected of having an enemy destina- tion.

LONDON, Nov. 4.—In one of the worst gales ever known in the Irish Sea the British steamship Connemara, with pas- sengers and a cargo of cattle from Greenore, Ireland, for Holyhead, Wales, collided last night, just outside the Car- lingford bar, with the British steamship Retriever, laden with coal. Both vessels sank immediately, with an estimated loss of life of about 100. Of the 50 pas- sengers and crew of 31 aboard the Con- nemara there is only one survivor. It is virtually certain there were no Amer- icans on board. The entire crew of the Retriever was lost. Many bodies are being washed ashore on the Irish coast. Numbers of cattle also are being washed up, some alive. The weather was so rough that it would have been impossible to launch any boats, even had time permitted. The Connemara was of 1106 tons. The Retriever was of 674 tons gross. A steamer service is maintained by the London & Northwestern Railway be- tween Holyhead, Wales, and Greenore, Ireland, a distance of about 9 miles across the Irish Sea. — Mail From Emgiand on Slow Ship.

The moral and material menace to St. Louis of the chaotic prohibition amendment has been pointed out. Its adoption would be unreasonably demoralizing because it would breed violation and contempt of law. The city would be many times worse with upregulated dens than with regulated saloons. Without gain, but with loss on the mora! side, there would be a tremendous destruction of in- dustrial and commercial interests. St. Louis would suffer most from the closing of breweries, but the whole State would suffer greatly. It bas been estimated that nearly a fourth of St. Louis industty and commerce would be knocked out, The great brewery plants built up under sanetion of law and public opinion would be shut down. In- dustry and business dependent upon the trade of their officers and employes, upon the purchase of supplies, upon rentals of property, upon transpor- tation would be destroyed. Banks, stores, fac- tcries and land owners would suffer. Revenue from taxes and licenses would be cut off. The tax rate would go up. | The third constitutional amendment is a vicious attaek on St. Louis from every standpoint moral, political and material. It should be voted down cverwhelmingly. = = rT Hoch der Koenig! in he ~~ = WISDOM IN ILLINOIS.

DISTRESSING NEWS FROM MEXICO. We can hardl? say that, after reading Mrs. O’Shaughnessy’s book, in which she frankly says Gen. Huerta vias “somewhat idealized,” and view- ing his figure through a distance of more than 8000 miles, elightly obscured by political haze, we had arrived at the apotheosis of that sturdy, if rather homicidal, old Indian, But it approximated apotheosis. Very painful to us, therefore, ig the course of a portion of the American colony in Mexico City who met and passed resolutions to this effect: We emphatically indorse the nonrecognition | of, the traitor, assassin, ysurper, Huerta, the most shameless and abhorrent crintinal of the country. They also approved Carranza’s recognition and declared that Mexican as well as American inter- ests demand Mr. Wilson’s re-election.

Senator Jones of Washington was in the midst of a Hughes harangue and strenuously abusing Wilson the other day when his false teeth flew out and broke up the meeting, Let us hope that the Senator bas recovered his false teeth, equl- Ubrium and urbanity.in the meantime. ; in this manner was when a perjurer was in the midst of a declaration before a grand jury. How- ever, there 16 no pointed analogy between the in- stances, as the Senator was not on oath. | Not all Hughes orators have false teeth, we presume. But it is a fortunate thing that false tongues do not fly out, else the Hughes campaign would loge a good deal of its eloquence. __ = * i i ‘PRESIDENTS AS SELP-ADVERTISERS. Mr. Wilson is a poor galesman of himself, Tn an age swayed by advertising, he is a poor ‘advertiser and in a nation which forms its opinions largely by reading headlines, he ie a poor headliner—Ray Stannard Baker in Collier's. Mr. Baker puts his finger on the one weak point in the Wilson campaign. Had the President pos- gessed a hundredth part of Col. Roosevelt's in- clination and ability to hang up three-sheets on himself, his opponents would face a problem very different and very much more difficult from the one they are facing. The elevation of the Presi- dent’s motives and the unprecedented record his administration has made while in office would be so well xnown to the peaple and the popular ‘verdict thereon would by this time be so mature and unqualified that politicians would attack and disparage him at their peril. The Republican plan of campaign has 0 made with no little discernment to assault Mr. Wilson at his one vulnerable point, as it may be N gelled from the standpoint of practical politics But the politicians have overdone the thing. The intemperance shown in disparagement, the importunate relatives, bill collectors, employes, The last time we heard of false teeth behaving}.

TAT AS — AND POLITICIAN. Immediately after the sinking of the Lusitania on May 7, 1916, E- President Taft wrote a letter to President Wilson expressing confidence in his ability to handle the situation wisely. At the Union League Club in Philadelphia, May 12,-of that year, he warmly commended Mr. Wilson. “Look back in our history,” he said, and answer me, if the resistance of Presidents to the demands of the extremists for war has not earned. for them the gratitude of their country.“ f At Bryn Mawr, June 4, 1915, Mr. Taft said: “ If we had had a jingo in the White House this country would now be at war with Ger- many. Instead, our Chief Executive is a man who appreciates his responsibility and realizes, that, considering the temper of the people, a turn of his hand would plunge us into an jun- ternational conflict. Let us stand by him in thts juneture. Our honor is safe with him. Wilson by his resistance to jingoism earned any gratitude from his country. A newspaper report of Mr. Taft’s speech at the Grover Cleveland. High School, in this city, of Oct. 27 says: “He jeered at the Democratic campaign cry that the President kept us out of the war.“ Conditions made possible only by Mr. Wilson’s policies, which had Mr. Taft's unqualified approval a few months ago, he now describes in these words: We are living in a fool’s paradise. At Kansas City, on May 22, 1915, Mr. Taft said that Mr. Wilson “is not a Democratic President. He is our President—first an American, the same as we are. But he is a very Democratic Presi- dent now, so much so that Mr. Taft has only de- nunciation for what he has done. chapel, in this city, last April, Mr. Taft made a plea “to refrain from caustic criticism of the is an international nujsante, and that intervention would occupy 200,000 men for two years. Now he himself has nothing but caustic criticism for the President and for Vera Cruz. Which was right—Mr. Taft, the patriotic Amer- ican citizen, or Mr. Taft, the biased American politician? if we ought to stand by Mr. Wilson” 18 months ago, why not stand by him now?

There is.no dispute as to the Hanna-esque co- ercion of Du Pont Powder Co. employes for the benefit of the party of the late Mr. Hanna. Gen- eral Manager James Lynah of the powder plant at Haskell, N. J., declares frankly: “We are pre- paring for a thorough campaign for the Repub- lican. party. There are at least 70,000 men em- ployed in the powder factories. Their vote for result of a conference of high officials and direc- tors of the company.” The impropriety is even ranker than: the coer- clon of their workers by the great trust bene- fiejaries of the tariff. The Powder Trust deals directly with the Government. In times of peace Washington is the trust’s best customer. Under an administration to whose success it had contrib- uted thousands of votes as well as tens of thoy- sands in campaign subscriptions, it hopes, of course, to be a favored contractor. This is just a i ee ee re ee come to light in the campaign. It will increase the public gratification that Government plants for making nitro and armor plate have already been provided for. It will strengthen the demand for Government Plants making all kinds of war munitions, Republican. A generous instinct ie a safegusrd in politics as in other relations of life.

DISPATOH, SATU. — DN uàẽnꝛ “ 9 q ! LEAL. — —— THE PROHIBITION MENACE. Since the Post-Dispatch asked what the busi- ness men of St. Louis were doing to safeguard St. Louis against the menace of prohibition, the bankers, the real estate men and the Business Men's League have adopted strong — against it. The moral and material menace to St. Louis of the chaotic prohibition amendment has been pointed out. Its adoption would be unreasonably demoralizing because it would breed violation and contempt of law. The city would be many times worse with urregulated dens than with regulated saloons. Without gain, but with loss on the moral side, there would be a tremendous destruction of in- dustrial and commercial interests. St. Louis would suffer most from the closing of breweries, but the whole State would suffer greatly. It has ‘been estimated that nearly a fourth of St. Louls industty and commerce would be knocked out. The great brewery plants bullt up under sanction of law and public opinion would be shut down. In- dustry and business dependent upon the trade of their officers and employes, upon the purchase of supplies, upon rentals of property, upon transpor- tation would be destroyed. Banks, stores, fac- tcries and land owners would suffer. Revenue from taxes and licenses would be cut off. The tax rate would go up. The third constitutional amendment is 4 vicious attack on St. Louis from every standpoint —moral, political and material. It should be voted down cverwhelmingly. = = * rT Hoch der Koenig! = = * WISDOM IN ILLINOIS. 5 Reports from Illinois show that a woman of 65 years of age, who has been toothless for 18 years, is now cutting a third set of teeth.

But it approximated apotheosis.

That defines my attitude.” While it had been the intention of the candidates to ignore discussion ot the prohibition question in the _ eampaign, the Republicans Thursday - gnd last night sent hecklers to Gardner meeting to ask him how he Stood on prohibition. The Democrats - fetaliated last night by sending heck- Jers to the meetings of Judge Lamm, 8 to ask him the same yest un 2 i > con ge on prohibi- tion last night, Gardner said he had - Jearned yesterday that a heckler in his Be Thursday night had asked him " = how he stood on prohibition, but that he did not understand the question at the ' time. He had been informed, he said, that heoklers were to be sent to his meetings by Republicans to harass him. and that when the heckler started to ask a question he refused to be inter- rupted. Since he had learned what the question was, he said, he was only too glad to state his position. “TI have never tried to conceal my posi- tion on anything,” Gardner said, and n answer the question now and tell how I will treat the liquor question when I am Governor.“ Gardner spoke at four meetings last 8 '. night. At every meeting the halls were _ erowded, and hundreds were unable to * admission. He spoke first at Stu- art's Hall, 8823 Easton avenue, then at - Druid’s Hall, Ninth and Market streets, ‘Fraternal Hall, and at Dewey Hall, 2301 South Broadway At the Druid's Han meeting, John P. Collins. an undertaker, formerly a mem- ber of the State Senate, entertained the with a discussion of interna- tional law and a bitter denunciation of Joseph W. Folk, former Governor, be- oa — Gardner's arrival. At the Fraternal Hall meeting Speaker Champ Clark 8 spoke before Gardner arrived Gardner’s Speeches Short. - G@ardner’s speeches were all short, and wers principally an appeal to the peo- _ ple ‘ot St. Louis as his neighbors to support him for Governor.

He said: “Congressman Rodenberg of East St. Louis only last week made a speech an hour long defending the Adamson bill, which he voted for, and which Hughes has been attacking. Wilson is going to carry Wisconsin in this election, because Senator La Follette, running for re-elec- tion as a Republican, has not dared to mention Hughes’ name in the campaign, but has devoted all of his time to de- fending the Democratic tariff law, for which he voted, the ship purchase bill, the eight-hour bill and the land credits bill. Throughout this country there are 78 Republican Congressmen defending the Adamson law, which Hughes has been attacking, because they voted for it. That's one reason why Hughes cannot be elected. Among these Congressmen is Uncle Joe Cannon, the ablest Republi- can in Washington.“ Speaker Clark told many humorous stories, and kept the audience laughing until Gardner came in. Would Put T. R. in Trenches. “I wish somebody would grab this fellow Roosevelt and stick him in the trenches in Europe for a few days,“ the Speaker said. He would have no trouble in finding all the fighting there he wants. “I want to tell you this thing: If the Republicans carry the United States Senate, there is no power on earth can keep Henry Cabot Lodge, who is more of an Englishman than George V, from fl 00 at n succeeding William Joel Stone as chair- man of the Foreign Relations Committee of the Senate. In all of these trouble- scme times, Wilson has leaned more on Senator Stone. now chairman of that committee, than any other man.“ Speaker Clark said that it would be a disgrace to Missouri to allow Senator Reed, the ablest debater in the Senate, who has made a greater reputation in one term than.any other Senator with the single exception of James S. Greene of Missouri, now almost forgotten, to be beaten by Walter S. Dickey, a million- aire. He said that Missouri Senators had always been selected for their ability and not their money, and that it was to the credit of the Republicans when they had one opportunity to elect a Sen- ator that they turned down a million- aire and elected the late William Warn- er, ‘‘who was as poor as Job's turkey. “Some prophet has been up in my district and caused reports to be printed that I was likely to be beat- en,“ the Speaker added. “Now I can only wish that this prophet will live until I am defeated in that district. He will be a much older man than he is now.“ | Workman Killed by Fumes, Ben Giberson, 61 years old, of 1901 South Broadway, was overcome by fumes when at work at the plant of the Monsanto Chemical Co., 1800 South Sec- ond street, yesterday afternoon, and died last night at the city hospital. | : PROTECT NEUTRAL SHIPS REPORTED Berlin Paper Says Guarantee That None of Cargo Should Reach Britain Is Required. BLOOMERSDJIK CASE CITED Proposal, if It Is Made, Would Abolish Enforced Discharge of Freight at Kirkwall. LONDON, Nov. 4—A special dispatch from Amsterdam features a statement of the Berlin Kreuz Zeitung that Ger- many has decided to make the safety of neutral ships carrying neutral cargoes dependent upon guarantees that no part of such cargoes shall be landed, wheth- er through British compulsion or not, at any British port. Such guarantees, according to the Kreuz Zeitung, can consist only in for- mal undertakings by Great Britain and such an undertaking will be recognized by Germany only from case to case. This is taken to mean that in event of any neutral cargo or part thereof being landed in England, the German Government immediately will cease to recognize the inviolability of ships. The Berlin paper implies that the case of the Dutch freighter Bloomersdijk, which was sunk by a German subma- rine off Nantucket Oct. 8, will be argued along these lines and it will be contend- ed that since the intermediate desti- nation was Kirkwall there was no guar- antee that the whole cargo would reach Holland. The British press also infers from a Berlin dispatch summarized in the Koelnische Zeitung that Germany pro- poses to sink all neutral ships, whether bearing neutral cargoes or otherwise, unless Great Britain consents to abandon the right to compel discharges at Kirk- wall of any part of a neutral cargo sus- pected of having an enemy destina- tion. TWO MURDERS ON SHIP CHARGED. Crew of Schooner From South Africa Have Captain and Mate Held. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.—Warrants charging murder on the high seas were issued yesterday against Capt. D. 0. Killman, of the American schooner Henry K. Hall, and his mate, Fred Han- sen. Six members of the crew exhibited bruises and told a tale of horrors aboard ship between Port Townsend, Wash., und Durban, South Africa, and return, which, they charged included the mur- der of two of the crew. Capt. Killman and Hansen are charged in one warrant with the death of one man while Hansen individually is accused of the murder of another sailor. The Henry K. Hall was 118 days coming from Durban.

Before he was in his teens he had tasted war. He had seen the Carolina their breastworks with cotton bales (a trick he was onc to splendid purpose in the battle of New Orleans). He had seen Tredcoats devastate the peaceful land. He had seen his ragged neighbor go unarmed into battie in the hope of snatching up some fallen comrade’s mus- ket and using it against the foe.

TALKS ON, “ENCORE EVIL” Hopes to Abate It This Season; Will Yield Baton to Guest“ Conductors. Max Zach, director of the Symphony Orchestra, who has returned from his vacation in Boston and Atlantic City for the winter’s season, begirining with a “pop” concert on Nov. 12, and who spoke concerning his plans at the City Club’s luncheon today, outlined for the Post-Dispatch several important prin- ciples of policy, some of them novel, which will guide his programs this year. For the first time,“ he said, “ ‘guest’ conductors will be permitted to direct their own works at two of the concerts. Otto Weidig of Chicago will conduct his ‘Symphonic Suite’ at the fifth pair of concerts, and Edgar Stillman Kelly of Cincinnatti has been invited to direct his ‘Alladin Suite’ at the second con- certs. He is expected to accept. “Several works with which I may not on the ground that the public, modern- ist and conservative, is entitled in some degree to hear what it wants. Consid- erable attention will be accorded to ultra modern music, for it is an un- coubted fact that many persons are wearied of the Old-fashioned tunes with acc ents. As an example of im- pressionistic music, Debussy’s ‘Le Mer,’ which sent the conservatives into con- vulsions two years ago, may be repeat- ed. If not, its place will be taken by the same composer’s ‘Iberia,’ a some- what more tangible work, with Spanish rhythms. Debussy has certainly struck cut an important new path in music, as is shown by the fact that many of his innovations were adopted by so severe a classicist as the late Max Reger, called ‘the modern Bach.’ Grainger’s Music on Programs. Percy Grainger’s In a Nutshell Suite’ will be given at the first concerts, Nov. 17 and 18, because Grainger seems to be at present the man of the hour in music. Whether this work is of en- during merit may be a question, but the public has a right to hear such compo- sitions and judge of them for itself. The proviso may be made that some of the novel instruments used in the suite— maribas, narimbaphones, staff bells, etc., are familiar in vaudeville. “Seven and possibly eight American composers will be represented on the programs, as I believe the public has a right to know what is being accom- plished in creative music in this country. Although the United States has produced no Beethovens and Wagners, I feel it the duty of a conductor to make avail- able to the public the best work being done here. “at the first concert a symphonic suite, The Sphinx,’ by Samuel Bollinger of St. Louis, will be played, because this composition won first prize in the or- chestral division of the St. Louis Art League’s contest last year. The works by Weldig and Kelly have been men- tioned. In addition, we shall play the ‘Symphonic Phantasie’ by George F. Boyle of Baltimore; Chadwick's sym- phonic poem, Tam O’Shanter,’ and ex- cellent and humorous work; and a new composition by Frederick Converse, which I played with the composer in the first four-hand draft this summer at the Composers’ Club in Boston. Mrs. H. . A. Beach, soloist at one of the concerts, will play her new piano concerto. At the ninth pair of concerts Zimbalist may play a new violin concerto by Frederick Stock of Chicago.“ Talks on “Encore Evil.” Zach expressed vigorous convictions on the impropriety of permitting soloists at symphony concerts to give an unlimited number of encores, or, in fact, any en- cores at all, and said that since he can- not at present abolish the encore evil,“ he would try to abate it by the new policy of placing soloists at.the end of the concert, where any recall numbers they may earn will not disrupt the con- tinuity of the program. | “I feel strongly,” he said, that St. Louls would be a better recital town if music lovers here were not accustomed to get a symphony concert and a recital all in one. By permitting extra num- | bers, the public's interest in an artist's performance is satiated, instead of being merely whetted. What is the use of maintaining an expensive symphony or- chestra if it is only to provide a frame- work for piano and violin recitals? . “T feel that the conductor of the New York Symphony Orchestra was guilty of a breach of ethics at the concert in St. Louis last season, when Josef Hoffman was suffered to give a halt a dozen encores in the middle of Damrosch would’ the concert. Dr. never have permitted this in New York. I was at one of his concerts in that city last spring, when Mischa Biman received eight recalis, but there was never a thought of his giv- ing an encore. After all, the purpose of a symphony orchestra is to give orchestral concerts. ounce, the é6xpedient will be adopted tis year of placing soloists at the end of the programs, where any en- cores they will give will not inter- fere with the unity of the concert as planned by the director. Among those who will be thus placed are ow- sky, Zimbalist, Hoffman, Gogorza, Yaaye, Gluck and Hempel.

Zach promises that LIBERAL SYMPHONY the Second Symphony will be even more acceptable, it being strikingly Russian in national type. That the classics will not be neg- lected is shown by the fact that the prcgrams include Beethoven's over- ture to “Egmont,’ his ‘Seventh and tighth Symphonies and his “Emper- or’ concerto; Brahms’ Second Sym- phony and “Academic” overture; Dvorak’s “New World” symphony; Tschaikowsky’s Fifth and “Pathe-- tique” symphonies; the overtures to Der ——— 8.

The auditorium was well-filled and the audi- eres, both in its size and in the spon- taniety of its applause, proved that the San Carlo troupe has won a loyal and following in thie city. The was the first of a series of 1t performances. A considerable factor in the evening's eaters wes the St. Louis grand opera jorus of between 7 and 80 volunteer n who, after rehearsing through- cut the summer, had their reward in an opportunity to appear on the grand opera stage. With the company’s reg- - lar 2% choristers, a total of about 100 in the chorus was attained. The fresh Young voices were grateful to the ear, the big scene of Radames’ triumph n the second act was made impressive, net only by the numbers thronging the but by vocal volume. The St. ulis chorus will sing at several per- formances during the engagement. Manuel Salazar as Radames, with his ‘thrilling voice and simple, unaffected ſoree of acting, was worthy of the _ esteem in which, the Costa Rican tenor ‘is held in this city. His costumes were ‘resplendent. Mary Kaestner acted and | sang Aida better than she did last year, and her makeup for the part was, as always, perfect. Madalena Carreno, a _Junoesque mezzo-soprano and a new- oomer here, made a promising impression as Amneris. Giuseppe Battistini, the company's new baritone, was a capital Amonraso, and some of the best singing ot the evening was that of the powerful- voiced Pietro de Biasi, as Ram- . fp. The company’s new musical direc- tar, Carlo Peroni, won comment for the gest and energy of his conducting. Owing to a fire which providentially destroyed most of Impresario Gallo's scenery while it was in storage last summer, “Aida” appeared in fresh, new stage settings. The costumes were spick end span, filling the stage with lively color. The orchestra numbered 28. This afternoon's bill is Faust,“ and tonight “Rigoletto” will be presented.

The principal evidence against Barnes, who is in police custody. ts the ante-mortem statement of John- son, made to his wife, Mrs, Augusta Johnson, and a (friend, John W. Brewer, of 8649A Garfield avenue Johnson told them that he was shot by the man he caught robbing his home June 24. Barnes is the man ac- cused of the robbery and is awaiting trial, An ante-mortem statement, to be competent, must have been made when the person making it knew that he was dying. Johnson's statement ts held to be competent because, when Johnson's wife left his room at the hospital he said to Brewer: “The lit- tle woman will soon be a widow.” He then told Brewer that he had been shot by the man who robbed his house and later made the same state- ment to his wife. Johnson had left his car and was turning the switch when he was shot three times. GAT HAS GOLD-CROWNED TOOTH Assistant in Massachtsetts Mayor's Laboratory Does Dental Work.

SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 4 1916. — — +a ä— emeeEapeE — [600 ATTEND CHARITY BALL THAT NETS $8000 Best Attraction Is the Hula Hula Dance by a Group of Buds and Belles. By FRANCES CABANNE SCOVEL. The second annual charity ball at Moolah Temple last night for the bene- fit of the St. Louis Children’s Hospital was another social and financial success added to a long list of interesting en- tertainments given by the group of so- ciety women who constitute the hospital board. It brought out about 800 persons and netted about $8000. It was a beautiful affair from the decorations to the cos- tumes—everyond seemed to have on her newest and best—and the Hawawiian setting on the stage at one side of the ball room helped to give a tropical pic- ture in which there were many high lights. The brightest one was the Hula hula dance done by a group of buds and belles led by Mrs. Charles Parsons Pet- tus and Clarence Hopkins King. But! It was the hula hula with the lula left out. The dancers were dressed in costumes made of grass, red girdles and red ban- Geaux around their heads. Their hair was flowing and everything quite correct except that they wore high-heeled danc- ing slippers strapped on with ribbons in- stead of their bare feet. Dance Was Well Done The dance was bright and was and 80 well done that it should be repeated at the first opportunity. Miss Isabel Open. Helen Watts, Mary Frances Joy, July Collins, Eleanor Standard, Ellanore Scott, Katherine Parker, and rie Ewing Wight were the dancers. | The ballroom has a balcony like a theater and seats all around the room about four deep. These were divided into sets of six and @ight, called boxes, ~ and were filled with spectators. All during the evening colored lights were thrown on the dancers and at in- tervals a moving picture thrown on a screen that dropped down in front of} Ff the orchestra on the stage. It was odd to see the actors in the movie and the dancers on the floor keeping on with their act in the dark whilé the orchestra continued playing in the gloom. The dancing began upstairs, continued during supper when the orchestra and guests went down to the dining room in the basement, and returned to the ball- room afterwards where it lasted until 2 o'clock. The moving picture of the Hula girls taken as they were coming out of Mrs. Pettus’ house at 33 estmoreland place after a rehearsal was very amus- ing and as each girl came into the camera her friends in the audience “gave her a hand.” It was hard to tell who had the most admirers. The last one to be shown on the screen was Mrs, Pettus with the young- | est of her five children, “Polly” Weeds bn her arms. The little one stared at the ‘camera man and was as attractive as children always are in their unconscious- ness, Above them was “Miss Mary Pet- tus, Class of 1832." In one box was Mrs. Leonidas H. Laid- ley, Mrs. Thomas K. Niedringhaus, Mrs, William Bagnell and her daughter, Mrs. Stuart Culbertson of Louisville, Ky., Mrs. Vaughan Clark and Mrs, Goodman King. ’ If Mrs. Albert Bond Lambert's cos- tume at the Hawaiian ball in Narra- ganset took first prize last summer, her gown last night would certainiy have won one had a prize been given for the most beautiful costume last night. Tt, was of white net embroidered in shining silver, with a train of cloth of silver that glistened like moonlight. In her box were her guests, Mr. and Mrs. John Cady of Moline, III. Mrs. Cady at, tracted a good deal of attention, as she is remarkably pretty and had on a gown of sapphire blue net with some irri- descent blue trimming, one of the most stunning gowns in the room. Mrs. W. Arthur Stickney aiways dressed in the extremest fashion, wore a beautiful gown of vivid colored velvet with a band of tourquoise bive at the top of the bodice. Mrs. Stickney, who is often likened to Mrs: Vernon Castle, is quite as good a dancer as she. Miss Dozier Dances Exquisitely. Miss Eleanor Dozier, who will marry Stuart Stickney, is another girl who dances exquisitely and is a joy to watch. Last night she wore a nile green tulle frock, one of the loveliest f s there. Mrs. Julius S.

Miss Theotiste Nugent, Miss Jeane Al- lison, were there, belles as always, and Mrs. William Glasgow O'Fallon who was the beautiful Cora. South Brown as slim and girlish as the year she made her debut, Miss Mildrew Orthwein's gown of rose colored velvet had the train at one side coming from under the left arm in- stead of from the back. Mrs. John T. Davis Jr., opened the ball when the first strains of the dance music commenced and her particular group applauded. Mrs. Harold M. Kauffman who had charge of the supper arrangements was downstairs most of the evening attend- ing to ‘her part of the party which was a success and Mrs. Edward J, Walsh, who was one of the women of the dec- oration part, was all around seeing to things. wet fo — Se eet nl : ~ POLITICAL ADVERT NDMENT PROPOSED BY INITIATIVE: PETITION THIRD CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT Be it enacted by the people of the State of Missouri: Section 1.

For the following Saturday will be one of the fiercest on the calendar. Today only three of the major elevens of the East seem forced to call into ac- tion their big guns. Two of these, Syra- cuse and Dartmouth, will have their an- nual battle royal, while Army will en- gage with its likely Western foe, Notre The issue in both cases will as- suredly be close, if the important cogs of all the machines involved are in smooth working order. * Dartmouth's Dope Best. ARTMOU TH appears to have the call, on the season’s form, over Sy- racuse. Both have bombarded the ene- my’s goal line heavily, in their games this year, Syracuse having scored 208 points in five games, and Dartmouth 177 points in six contests. Both have suffered reverses in their last two contests, Georgetown and Princeton both being fortunate to de- feat the Green, while Syracuse was crushed, by her gg + a = had miserable | fortiine against M Dartmouth — harder teams in its first four games than any Syracuse had met on equal dates. In fact, the green has a tight little team that has not yet been decisively climinated from all title hopes. Syracuse Has Beef-Trust Lne. ONTRARY to custom, Dartmouth this year will face the Syracuse mastodons with a comparatively light line. The battle will, therefore, be a test of the value of line weight, under the present playing rules. It has been said that no lineman over 200 pounds can be used to advantage under the present laying conditions. Syracuse has more — one dreadnaught of greater ton- ste 1 backfield should lay over anything Syracuse will offer. In short, the dope indicates Dartmouth is two touchdowns, or close to it, bet- ter than its rivals. Dartmouth’s weak point is gen- erniship. In handling the team when in sight of a score, Canncll has not satisfied all requirements, his Kastern critics assert. UT then ‘there’s many a leader at a loss how to drive a halfback past an impassable line. When the secondary defense is up, gains are grinding work and confin to inches If plunges fails the critics say thesignal caller should have forward passed across the line; if he forward passes and fails, they declare he ought to have used a plunging attack. So what's the poor boy to do, between the deep sea and the Old Boy? * — + Army Defense Tightening. T the start of the season Army ap- peared to have a weak eleven.

Minnesota, in short, geems a sure-shot champion—one of the’ few outstanding in the sectional struggles of the country, this year. Vanderbilt appears to have the South wrapped up; but even there the margin of safety is not so large as it is with Minnesota. * © A New Stiehm Roller. OMPARATIVE scores indicate that Northwestern is about 32 points better than Indiana; but this seems hard to believe, after the dandy game played by the Indiana Stiehm roller against Tufts. Tufts’ strong machine nosed out a victory by two points, which is hardly a convincing margin. Indiana may be counted on to make a desperate opposition to Northwest- ern. None would be surprised, indeed, if the Evanston men were beaten, al- though the figures say it is one of the day’s sure shots. Even dope goes wrong, now and then. Wisconsin 1 Ohio Stats have a brisk little party to attend. The Badgers are being moved ahead slowly and some of the team’s rformances are not impres- sive. But Ohio State was a lucky bird to defeat Illinois, and Illinois is — 5 ting any records this year. Wisconsin should play its dest game of the season, today; it will have to, to win. Chicago is a 3 winner over Purdue, although the line that leads to the conclusion is vague and Chicago is pursuing an erratic career this year. Tigers Have No Sinecure.

This battle is between McKinley and Soldan High Scbools. at High School Field at 3 p. m. The two other games, although not cham- pionship games, will afford the league teams an excellent chance to get some real scrimmage and get toughened up à dit before their games next Saturday. Central met Smith-Manual at 10 a. m., and 98 man takes on Principia at 1 p. Both ames will be played on the High School Field. Soldan and McKinley will meet this afternoon on as equal a footing ac can be expected in the prep circles. Both teams have at least one man who is supposed to be on the hospi- tal list and two or three more who have applications in. These men are not going to be content to remain out of the game today, as this is THE big game of the season for the two schools. Lou Davis of Soldan is deter- mined to start the game against Mc- Kinley, and Coach Kelly has con- sented, while at McKinley Capt. Deeds and Art Ronat, who have been visiting a member of the medical] profession this past week. are sched- uled to answer roll call when the game starts: Cripples to Start Game. The dope has it that McKinley is to de- feat Soldan by two touchdowns: but with men on both teams who are ailing, Old Man Dope resigns his job officially and panes only A. . 1 that oldan goes down to defeat to th 14—0: played slow! oie * The Principia gri ‘team, under the guid. ance of Coach artin. will try to hold Yeatman down to a low score if possible, but judging oF their past performances they are going to have a hard time, and as for them getting across the goal ine it’s all wrong. Yeatman should not be sat- isfied with less than eight touchdowns. While all this excitement is. going on at High School Field, Webster cok Kirkwood High Schools will be staging a battle royal rancis Field. The winner of this game not be county 9 but will have od chance to play he final round 2 play when the time does come to settle the championship.

Is Working for His Education CHICAGO, Nov. 4.—Practically every member of the Northwestern Univer- sity eleven which surprised “Big Nine” football followers by recently defeating the University of Chicago for the first time within 15 years, is working his way through school. The players are making big sacri- fices tor the sucess of the team. Mul- der, right guard, is obliged to rise at J a. m. to start in on his outdoor du- ties. And he’s busy until 3:30 o’clock in the afternoon, when he reports for football practice. Capt. Driscoll, who many critics believe will be chosen a member of the All-Western eleven, is particularly busy doing a full line of odd jobs to earn his way. Patterson Beats Cooper.

* Heart of a Burofar By Jane Dahl. OISELESSLY the burglar drew his great bulk through the window, deposited his kit of tools on the floor and lowered the sash behind him. Then he stopped to listen. No sound broke the midnight stillness. Stealthily he flashed his lantern around the room tm search of objects of value. His quick ear caught the sound of a door opening and hurried footsteps in the upper hal! Instantly he adjusted a black mask and sprang behind an open door. Pistol in hand, every faculty alert, he waited. He heard the soft thud of bare feet on the padded stairs, then labored breath- ing near by. As the electric light was switched on, brilliantly muminating the room, he gripped his revolver and stepped from ‘behind the door. “Hands up!“ he cried in a hoarse whisper. Then he fell back with a short, Yaucous laugh. He was pointing the revolver at a frightened little mite of a girl shivering before him in her thin White nightgown. The small, terrified ‘face touched him strangely, and, placing his pistol in his pocket he sald, not un- “There, little girl, don’t be so scared Um not going to hurt you. Just you be real stil] so as not to disturb the others ‘until I get through and get away, and you shan’t be hurt.“ The child looked at him much as she would an obstacle in her path, and at- tempted to rush past him. He grabbed her and held her tight. “You little vixen!’ he exclaimed. “Didn't 1 tell you to keep still?“ “But I've got to telephone,” gasped): the child, struggling to free herself. “Just let me telephone and then you ean do what you like with me—but I can’t wait—I've got to telephone right “mway.” And she made another effort to reach the telephone on the wall Again the burglar laughed. It's very likely Tu let you telephone for the po- lice. No missy, you can’t work that on me. I guess I'll have to tie and gag you, after all.“ g™™= RESH terror found its way into the F face and for the first time burglar realized that he was ; not the cause of it. She was not. efraid of him. She fought and scratched — like a young tigress, striving to , and when she realized how —— she was in his strong arms dhe buret into tears. “Oh!

And when Margaret was old enough her mother used to tell her that her father was on the deep, big, blue sea on a big ship, and that some day he would come home to them and they would go to meet him down dy the water. But the months passed and he did not come, and then a year and no word from him, and then another year, and people said the ship on which Marga- ret’s father sailed away had been lost at sea. Margaret's mother watched and prayed, but after another year she grew sick and sad with the waiting and died and left little Margaret all alone. Old Granny Moore, who lived near Marga- ret’s little house, said she would give the child a home, and look out for her as long as she lived, but she was an old woman and could not expect to live much longer. So Margaret went to live with Granny Moore, but each day she went down to the shore and looked out across the water, as her mother had done, to look for the ship that might bring her fa- ther hond to her. Margaret was 6 years old when one day old Granny Moore took sick and Margaret heard the neighbors say that she was going to die, and they won- dered what would become of Margaret. So, without saying a word to anyone, and no one was noticing the child, as all attention was given to Granny Moore, Margaret put on her sunbonnet and put some cookies in a little bas- ket. Then she went down to the shore and M ARGARET'S father was a sailor, got into a boat that was tied to the wharf. It was easy for Margaret to untie the knot, for she had watched the fish- ermen many times untie their boats, and by and by the boat began to go out with the tide. On and on went the boat until Mar- ‘Bitte Faret was out of sight of land, but this did not frighten Margaret a bit. She knew she would find her father on the big, deep, blue sea and she was going to him. Why should she be afraid? Night came on, but the sea was calm, and Margaret grew sleepy, so she ate her cookies and then curled up in the bottom of the boat and went to sleep. She had no thought of being afraid, for she knew it was a long way to the big, deep, blue sea and that it would take a long time to get there. Early the next morning, before the sun had even peeped over the edge of the earth, a sailor on a big ship saw a tiny speck floating on the water, and when he looked through his spyglass he was surprised to see a boat drifting toward his ship. All the sailors on the ship watched to see the boat when it came near, and child in that boat. I can see its head and hand, but I am afraid it is dead.” So the sailors took one of their life boats and rowed to the boat where Margaret was sleeping. When the sailors came near their voices Woke her up and she sat up and rubbed her eyes, not knowing where she was at first. But when she saw the boat and the sailors she remembered, and the frst thing she asked when they came along- side her boat was: Where is my papa?“ “Bless the child,“ said one sailor, “she isn’t a bit frightened. Where did you come from, lass? “T came from Granny Moores, but she is sick, and I have no place to go, so I came out here to look for my father. He is on the big, deep, blue *. Mother said he was.“ „Poor baby.” said one: “her father is a sailor and she is looking for nim, Let us give her some breakfast the first thing. She is cold, and she must be hungry, too.“ While she was eating breakfast, one of the sailors, who seemed more ter- ested than the others in Margaret, saw a chain around her neck and drew it one suddenly exclaimed: “There is aj out of her dress. l At the sight of the locket on the chain he breathed hard and his fingers trembled as he opened it. He looked at the picture in the locket and then he did what strong men seldom do—he fainted. The picture was of Margaret's father And so Margaret found her father on the big, deep, biue sea just as she had expected to do, She was the only one who did not think it strange, for hadn’t her mother told her that was where he was? When they reached home they found old Granny Moore better, and no one had dared to tell her of Margaret's dis- appearance. (Copyright, 7 Syndicate.
