New Mexico Elects Demo- crat — One Reversal in Tennessee—Three Cal- ifornia Reclassifications. President Gains 2,270,694 in Popular Vote Over 1912 — Figures Showing Republican Slump. With a safe margin of at least 10 votes in the electoral college, the title of President Wilson to a second term is absolutely clear. As the record now stands, the Demo- cratic President on Tuesday last car- ried 30 states with 276 electoral votes, in- cluding New Mexico and New Hamp- shire, the latter of which was put into the Democratic column today. by the State's Secretary of State. Hughes car- |, ried 17 states, with 243 electoral votes. The 12 votes of Minnesota are still in the balance. The President and Mr. Hughes polled in the aggreg&te 16,704,114 votes, the largest number ever recorded in the his- tory of the country. Of these, President Wilson got 8,563,713 and uur. Hughes 8,160,401. The President therefore obtained not only a majority of votes in the electoral college, but received a majority of 43,- 2 of. the popular vote of the country. A ent polled 2,270, more votes Tuesday that he did four years 280. Mr, Hughes obtained 555,938 more votes than Mr. Taft and Col. Roosevelt combined in the three-cornered contest that year. House Situation Complicated. The probable complexion of the Stxty- ** fifth Congress was further complicated ‘today by returns from the one outstand- ing, a reversal in another district and a yeclassification of the politics of three members of the California delegation. The count in the one unreported district, that in New Mexico, is not yet complete, but the election of Walton, Democrat, is probable, according to latest returns. A reversal in the Tenth North Caro- lina district, where complete returns in- dicate the election of Congressman J. Britt, Republican, by a plurality of 13 votes, broke the 215 tie which existed on the face of the returns for Congress up to last night. The three California members re- classified are John J. Nolan, Fifth District; Evéris A, Hayes, Eighth, and Charles H. Randall, Ninth. In thelr political designation in the Congressional Record they appar- ently are, favorable to the Repub- lican side. However, the three ap- peared on the Republican and Demo- ie tickets and Randall, in addi- tidn, was on the Progressive ticket. In previous returns two were cred- ited with being Democrats and one with being a Republican. The Con- nal Record, however, classes Nolan as a Progressive, Hayes as a Republican and Randall as a Prohi- bitionist. What Present Returns Show. As @ result of these changes the “Republicans from present indications, * lll have 4 small plurality in the House, latest figures giving them 216 members and the Democrats 213 and other parties six. ‘There are a number of cloge dis- 4 tricts where, on the face of complete _ veturns members are apparently elected by very small pluralities. Tne ‘Third New Jersey District, where Robert Carson, Republican, is appar- 1 ently elected by 11 votes over Thomas J. Seully, Democrat, and present 4 member of Congress, is a case in point.

SAYRE BABY CRIES ALL OF TIME IT BEING CHRISTENED President as One of Gedfathers, Promises to “Renounce the Devil and All His Works.” WILLIAMSTOWN, .ass., Nov. 11.— Soon after President Wilson arrived here yesterday he and his party went to St. John's Protestant Episcopal Church to attend the christening of Eleanor Axson Sayre, second child of Mrs. Francis Bowes Sayre, his daugh- ter. The baby cried continuously. In- side the church only a few intimate } friends of Mrs. Sayre witnessed the ceremony. As one of the godfathers of the baby, President Wilson promised in the name of the child to “renounce the devil and all his works.“ President Wilson ignored politics to- day to remain quietly with members of his family here. More. congratulatory telegrams arrived this morning. ve eral te“ graph operators were kept busy. The President will leave here late this }afternoon and is due to arrive in Wash- ington Sunday night.

James Cowgill, chairman of the Demo- cratic State Committee, said to a Post- Dispatch reporter today that Demo- cratic members of the Missouri Senate, at a conference here yesterday, dis- cussed plans for instituting impeach- ment proceedings, when the Legislature meets in January, against Judge Cal- vin N. Miller of the Court of Criminal Correction, for releasing 96 negroes, ar- rested Tuesday on charges of election frauds, without hearing any evidence. The State Senate, which will be strongly Democratic, has the power to impeach and remove from office any Judge in the State. Another’ probable result of Judge Mil- ler’s action yesterday will be the re- newal of the effort to abolish the two Courts of Criminal Correction in St. Louls. The Circuit Attorney’s office often has been handicapped and embar- rassed in the prosecution of cases by the action of these courts. Chairman Cowgill said that the Demo- cratic Senators seemed determined to take some action looking toward the removal of Judge Miller from office. If Judge Miller should’ be removed the Governor would appoint another Judge to fill the vacancy. Negroen Net Identified. Chairman Cowgill said that it was an unheard of proceeding for a Judge to discharge prisoners without the formal- ity of any sort of hearing. When these cases were called in Judge Miller’s court yesterday morning, he announced ut once that all were discharged. He did’ not even require the to Lbrought inte HS WUFLFBorn ond 14g fied on their bonds. There was no ef- fort made to determine whether a group of negrges, gathered in another room with Chris Schawacker, a professional bondsman, who had signed the $800 bond of each negro, were the men actually charged with attempted illegal voting. When the court opened only 55 negroes were present, although 9 were charged with violating election laws. Judge Miller was in his court all day, Tuesday accepting bonds for the negroes as fast as they were arrested. Most of this work was done by telephone, and the bonds were often signed and accept- ed by the time the negro under arrest arrived at the police station. Judge Miller is a Republican and dis- charged the negroes over the protest of Assistant Circuit Attqrney Thomas, who was in court to ask a continuance of the cases until he could have time to investigate the charges against each defendant. Judge Miller ignored Thom- as’ plea for more time. It also was learned that the Demo- cratic State Committee is investigating the injunction issued by Circuit Judge Karl Kimmel against the Police De- partment Tuesday, restraining it from arresting negroes charggd with attemor- ed illegal voting, with a view of pre- senting a complaint to the State Sen- ate. An official of the Circult Clerk’s of- fice said today that no injunction peti- tion had ever been filed in the Clerk’s office, as required by law, and that no record of any kind pertaining to an in- junction has been filed in the court. Under the rules of the court all suits must be filed with the clerk before they are heard, and the record of the action taken by the co * must also be filed with the Clerk. suit was filed in the regular action taken by Judge Kimmel w legal. There was ajso some talk among Democratic Senators of appointing 2 committee to investigate negro regis- tration in St. Louis for the purpose of having all illegally registered names removed from the books before the 9 election next April. ed Ballote a Factor. The — ballots in St. Louis, vari- ously estimated at from 600 to 2000, may become an important factor in the event Gardner should be elected Governor by a small plurality and the Republicans should contest his election. These bal- lots are now locked up in the vaults of the Election Commissioners’ office, and will be counted only in the event of a contest. The ballots are principally those of negroes who were challenged. The Democratic organization, in advance of the election, obtained the names of many negroes who had been charged with crime of various kinds, and when these negroes appeared at the polls to vote they were challenged. In cases where the judges were even- ly divided on accepting the ballots, they were placed in separate en'vel- opes, marked “rejected ballots.” Reesian Population 142,182,600.

The trial started yesterday aft- ernoon, At the opening of today’s session 36 talesmen had been questioned and only 10 had been accepted for the jury. Up to 2 p. m. today 12 additional jurors were tmpaneled. It will be neces- sary to impanel 47 from which to select the 12 who will try the case. Of the first panel of 12 jurors nine were excused, Six said they were op- posed to the death penalty, and three had formed an opinion which might prejudice them. Eleven of the second panel were excused, five being op- posed to capital punishment, and six having formed opinions. On the third panel six jurors were rejected, being opposed to the death penalty, and four having formed opinions. Judge Grimm told the attorneys that the selection of the jury must be completed. today, even if it should be necessary to have a night session. Assistant Circuit Attorney McCullen, in questioning the jurors, asked them if the youth of one or both of the de- fendants would influence their verdict. Ora Lewis is only 19 years old. Martin Weiss, attorney for the Lew- ises, asked each juror if newspaper ac- counts had caused the formation of an opinion. Several jurors said they had “formed an impression’ after reading newspaper accounts, Weiss. also attempted to learn wheth- PETITION TO DISBAR Bar Association Files Charges in leged that Dillon cashed the check, er the jurors would consider one of the brothers guilty if it were shown that he was with the slayer, but took no active part in the murder.

In the petition’ there are 13 charges of malpractice in pro- fessional ‘capacity. The petition charges that on Aug. 15, 1916, Dillon received from Edward West- field a check for $216.66 to be paid to the attorney representing the owner of the Cherokee Theater, this sum being for the rent of the theater. It is al- which was payable to him, and retained the money, and that Westfield had to make another payment to save himself from being evicted from the premises. In December, 1915, it is also charged, Dillon represented to the Westlake Con- struction Co., which he represented as attorney, that he had settled a suit filed against the company by the Dar- lington Lumber Co., for 9 10 K check for that amount was given him, it is alleged, but the company later learned that the sujt had not been settled, but only after the case had been called in court and a judgment issued against it. It is alleged that Dillon failed to notify the Westlake Co. that the case was on the docket for trial. \ It is charged that Dillon represented a Louisville firm in the collection of accounts, and that he did not turn over all the money that he collected. There is another charge that in repre- senting J. D. Westlake in a suit filed by John Barry, „Dillon obtained from Westlake 38.61 to be tendered to tho court in settlement of the case. It is alleged that Dimon paid only one cent into court, and that he. altered the ge- celpt of the Circuit Clerk to make it appear that $80.61 had actually been paid. This case became public when West- lake discovered the error some time ago. On Jah. 4 1916, it is alleged, Andrew Fink gave Dillon $16.40, balance of costs in a case in which Dillon represented Fink, and Dillon retained it until com- pelled by another attorney to return it. The petition charges that on April 16, 1915, he received $5 from Fink to rep- resent him in a justice court case and failed to appear and Fink had to go to trial without an. attorney and judg- ment wat rendered against him After Dilion’s departure from St. Louts last November, it was learned that he had gone to Mexico City, and there were reports that he was acting as an agent for Provisional President Car- ransa. He returned to the United States.

Judge Hen- nings’ court yesterday afternoon by the younger O’Neil’s wife, Mrs. Maude M. O' Neil, to whom a divorce was granted by default. She declared that O'Neill, once a fa- miliar figure in the. night gaieties here, is now without. money, and that since he deserted her, as she alleged, in New York in August, 1910, she has sent him She is a daughter of John C. Moon, president of the Moon Bros. Carriage Co. They were married Jan. 1, 1892. One of her charges against O'Neil was failure to support her. Moon testified that in August, 1910, he received a telegram from his son- in-law in New York, which read: Come and get your daughter; I don't want her any more.“ Moon said that he went to New York and brought his daughter back to his home, 3848 West Pine bouwle- vard, where she has since resided. O'Neil was one of four heirs of Peter A. O'Neill, who laid the basis of his fortune of about $1,000,000 at the Union Station restaurant.

The GERMAN-AMERICAN VOTE MUCH AS IT WAS BEFORE WAR Papers Expréss Confident Appre- ciation of His Character and His Policies. Special Cable te the Post-Dispatch and the New York Werld. LONDON, Nov. 11.—President Wilson's Victory has, on the whole, given de- cided satisfaction here, especially de- quarters where the past and prospective difficulties of the international situa- tion are best understood. Hughes was though to be too much of a dark horse to excite any hope on this side, despite the talk of his chief spokesman, Col. Roosevelt. It was be- lieved, too, that he sought the hyphen- ated vote. Among Americans as well as sympa- i thetic Englishmen thé view is strongty held that it would have been a calamity for the Unite States if Hughes had been elected, not by American, but by the hyphenated vote, thereby seriously compromising the country’s position as a neutral. It would have been a vic- tory for Potsdam far bigger than Tan- nenberg, it is held, and would have had a reflex action of the attitude of other neutrals, if it were found that Germans could decide who was to be the Presi- dent of the. United States. Presigent’s Power Increased. By his election on a straight vote, after four years of wnexampled trial and difficulties, it is recognized here that Wilson occupies a position of over- whelming power and authority as the mouthpiece of America, and everything he does hag behind it the solemn and considered sanction of his countrymen, based on the fullest appreciation of his character and policies, as expressed un- der the most exacting con sany President has had to face gince Lincoln. J. L. Garvin, editor of the Observer, writes: The election marks a new ‘epoch in the history et the American le. As I have said for menthes in the Observer, it locked as if Mr. Wilson : — Minnesota Hughes: . Bee a Slight yeers ago, have been selected to show the extent of the slump in the Republi- can vote last Tuesday. California, which Mr. Wilson carried of 63,000, gave Taft 30 majority. . Idaho, which was carried by President Wilson by 12,000, gave Taft a lead of 16,526. TWinois, where Taft received 189,123 ma- jority eight years ago, Hughes got one of 174,000. ; In Indiana, where Taft received 10,731 majority, that for Hughes last Tuesday was 6000.

Dighteen buildings are needed to re- lieve present congestion, to provide for natural increasé and to replace porta- bles. ‘Some are needed worse than others, but all should be built within the next five years and will be built within that period if the bonds are voted. If the money has to come out of the instruction fund it will ‘take longer. The schools which need new buildings are the Bates, Bircher Street, Canter- bury Avenue, Clifton Heights, Cupples, Devonshire, Gardenville, Hamilten, King’s Highway, Lindenwood, Long, Ne- osho Street, Penrose, Roe, Shenandoah, Stix, Woodward and Northwestern High. New buildings also are needed for the Cottage Avenue and the Garnett negro schools.

St. Joe Strachey, editor of the Spec- tator, who has been frequently one of President Wilson's most outspoken critics here, observes; “It is difficult to see how K will work out. Whom did the Germans vote for? I was told today by a well-known Amer- jean that Bérnstorff must have had some influence with Tammany or else the vote in New York would heve been larger for Wilson. The closeness of the contest reminds me of what Wellington said to Creasy about the battle of Wa- terloo: ‘It was the damndest nearest run thing you ever. saw.“ The New Statesman remarks: “It is better for the allies to have a President whose mind they know. Moreover, Wil- son is more likely to be interested per- sonally in the promotion of an Anglo- American entente, on the creation of which, after the war, so many important things will depend.“ When the Post-Dispatch correspondent tried to obtain a statement from J. Pierpent Morgan on the election results, the information was elicited that the financier had hidden himself in England, far from telegraphic and other com- munication. O. W. H. Massingham of the Nation said: “I regard it the best augury of peace since the war was begun. The United States have their own problema, Europe has hers, but for the purpose of bring- ing this war to an end, the two are in- digsolubly ‘connected, and America’s share in them has been stated by Wil- son in terms that can never be canceled. Bespeaks Wilson“ Good Offices. “The President's personality and pow- ers of intellect and er are now doubly engaged in the blessed work of securing the world's early release from its horrible entanglement. The resources of the European states- manship are not so rich, nor are its per- gonalities so inspiring that it can read- ily dispense with an acute, powerful and in some degree prophetic intellect at the head of the greatest Power that tic war hap left standing and the most sym- pathetic to ourselves. I think that mort men and women bere, who take more than casual interest in American poli- tics, read the news of Mr. Hughes’ earlier success with sinking hearts.” The Daily News regards Presiden Wilson's election as « triumph beth for his personality and his policies. The newspaper adds: In this courttry it is inévitable that predominant stress should be laid on President Wilson's attitude towards the European war and it will be learned with general relief that the Unites states will be guided in the four critical Months ahead, not by a defeated, but by a recommissioned President. “We have never disguised our convic- Mr. Wilson is qualified, as is to guide 457.

SOLID CALIFORNIA ELECTORATE LIKELY SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1.—Analysis by Democratic léaders today of the pop- ular presidential vote in San Francisco fails to give much encouragement to the claim of the Republican State Cen- tral Committee that a split. electoral vote will result from scratching of Democratic electors. ; In this city the low Democratic elec- tor, Mrs. Carrie L. Tyler, received 7, 830 votes, only ul behind Francis J. Heney, high with 78.241. If the same ratio were maintained throughout the State it is estimated Mrs. Tyler would be approximately 2466 votes behind the head of her ticket. The present Democratic plurality, however, is 3278, leaving the Republicans approximately 800 short of even one elector. Louis Clark, low Republican elector, ran 22 votes behind Britton, high with 63,130 votes in San Francisco.

LONDON, Nov. il—The news that fighting i- again in progress around the great Tchernavoda bridge in the Do- brudja region of Rumania is considered here the most interesting item of the war news.

Sofia reports under Friday’s date that Bulgarian artillery compelled entente troops which had advanced to the west bank of the Danube to “retire toward Dunareav.“ This, with the Petrograd report locating Dunareav two miles west of Tchernavoda, is taken to mean that the Russians were approximately at the end of that portion of the bridge which spans the main stream.

SOFIA, Nov. 7, by courier to Berlin and wireless to Sayville, Nov. — “Peace will come out of the East and not out from the West; at least peace is more likely to have its inception in the East. even if its fruition, culmina- tion and realization takes place in the West, said Prime Minister Rodoslaloft of Bulgaria to me today. “In his peace endeavors President Wilson, it would seem, has confined hi- efforts wholly to the western Powers, limited his Vision to London, Paris an Berlin, and ignored the East. where t ‘war began, and more especially has * nored Petrograd,” the Premier con- tinued. “If President Wilson seeks for America the honor of mediating for peace in Europe, would it not be more practical, at least interesting, to also as- certain what Petrograd, Constantinopie and Sofia think about peace?“ “Russia can never reach her goal in the Balkans, in Constantinople, in the Dardanelles, in this war.“ he declared. “Russia is farther from that goal today than ever. “That she does not see it; does not realize it, and keeps up still her ef- forts, sacrificing hundreds of thousands to attain what it now must be apparent to every far-seeing statesman is unat- plied to achieve that_end, is beyond my understanding. “The Rumanian card was not the ex- pected trump. That certainly is indis- putable. Sarrail’s offensive is an utter! failure. The entente press itself confirms that. The ‘entente machinations in Greece proved a fiasco, thanks to the King; who so far has proved himself a real King, worthy of the best Hellen! traditions, and who put the highest in- terest of his country and people above everything else. Rumania has had her lesson. Were she wise, she would profit by her folly. Nowhere has an enemy soldier set foot on Bulgarian soil except as a prisoner. Russia never was farther from the Dar- danelles and Constantinople than today What Russia has not attained through war and will not attain: through war perhaps she might in part have at tained through more peaceful means.”’ CAUSES HYDROPHOBIA SCARE Cow Bitten by Mad Dog Believed to Have Infected Seven Arkansans.

Four excellent editorial on “Cutting Corners,” reminds me that discussion of traffic abuses is almost wholly to automobiles and their dtivers. Traffic regulations should apply to all who use the streets or roads. No one can deny that many automobile drivers are careless. In ac- cidents, in which pedestrians are injured by auto- mobiles, I think it can be shown that a large pro- portion are due to carelessness of the pedestrian. | How many pedestrians are saved by the skill and - -thought of drivers has never been estimated, as Yar as I know. I personally have avoided run- | over a good many, drunk and sober, who showed little or no interest in their own safety. Another abuse of traffic reguiations that I have never seen mentioned is the filling up of the drive- way by slow-going vehicles. In cities with well regulated traffic one will never see a horse-drawn Wagon very far away from the curb. In New Tork such à driver would immediately be arrest- d. Here, in St. Louls, wagons and large slow- going trucks hardly ever stay near the curb, fre- quently occupying the space between the street car tracks and often driving “en echelon” in twos or 1 even in the congested district. In such eases the automobilist is obliged to get on the left of the road, sometimes having only apace enough to get through, and at the risk of meeting another machine legitimately coming on the same — D 9 is, per mon Kenna, Mr. Holmes, Mr. Day and Mr. Van De- is be) Ac td 0 hs deine won De ocrats—Mr. White, Mr. Lamar, Mr. McReynolds and Mr. Clarke—and five Republicane—Mr. Me- vanter. Had Mr. Taft been named, instead of Mr. McReynolds or Mr. Clarke, six would be Repub- licans to only three Democrats. Some of the most interesting speculation sug- gested by the close présidential election relates4 to the poss{bility of a divided election result in some state and a tle between Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hughes. That would throw the election into the House, where the vote woulg be taken by states. It was pointed out that 24 of the state dele- gations have a preporiderance of Republican mem- ters and only 20 @ preponderance of Democratic members, while on four neither party has a ma- jority. In ease of a dispute as to how the elec- coral votes of a state or states are to be counted, direct or incidental issues growing out of the election might be appealed to the courts. It is a satisfaction to know that the final defision would rest with a court on which political sentl- ment as nearly equal as on the present Supreme Court. The commission that decided the disputed Til- den-Hayes contest of 1876 taught us that even ‘the members of this high court cannot be expected to divest themselves of political bias in adjudi- cating great questions on which the presidency itself may depend. The 1876 commission, on which five cf the 15 members were Justices, in- variably divided eight to seven on every decision involving Republican advantage. Mr. Wilson is said to have jooked upon Mr. Taft's appointment with considerable favor, but his deterraination to withhold or at least postpone it now seems eminently wise in view of all the complexities which a contested presidential elec> tion might bring. Obviously the selection by a Democratic Fresident of a Republican for a bench on which the Republicans were already repre- sented by five Justices was not urged by the same reasons which impelled Mr. Taft himself, when President, to name Mr. Lamar, Democrat, of Georgia, without whom Democratic representation on the bench would have dwindled to one as against eight Republicaus. Doubtiess in selecting another instead of Mr. Taft, Mr. Wilson had in view many contingencies which the rest of us di not think of at the time. . RGS New.

The people of Germany, if they had had a vote on it, would have preferred peace. The people of Austria, if they had had an op- portunity, would have voted’ for peace. So with Russians. Frenchmen, Englishmen, if they could have com- posed international difficulties with a vote for peace, would have preferred that solution. The deliberate choice of a policy of peace with honor in preference to war would be made by any civilized people which had an opportunity to vote on it. The peoples of Europe had no control over their national policies, no voice in their international affairs, no choice but to plunge into the pit of hell into which their Kings and-chaneellories drove them. But not one of the nations of Burope, if it ENCOURAGING BALLOT FRAUDS. Fraudulent voting having been made, by sec- tion 4427 of the Revised Statutes, a felony, punish- able by a five-year term of imprisonment, as 6 maximum, or by one year’s imprisonment, or a fine of $50, or both, as a minimum, the action of Judge Calvin Miller in discharging 96 negroes se- cused of this law-breaking, without calling tuem to the bar of the court, 1a, as Circuit Attorney Thomas says, “unprecedented.” The men ‘were not even in court, officially, some being still in the hallway, when the Judge discharged the lot. Chris. Schawacker, professional bondsman, hed signed bonds for these men to the tune of $82,800. Judge Miller could have performed a notable public service, in the interest of an honest ballot, by having these cases threshed out in court. If, as is charged, some of the men were the victims of intimidation, that should have been brought out by taking the testimony. The wholesale discharge, was a parody on American judicial proceedings and a denial of justice.

Here is _— his story: oe His father was a provisional schoolmaster in England, who died in the summer of 1752, just three months before his only gon’s birth. Thomas was gent to a charity school by his widowed mother when he was 5. But to his family’s disgust he could not learn to read. He seemed half-witted. After 18 months he was sent back to his mother with a message that even @ charity school was no place for an “incorrigible dunce.”” His mother then ‘sted to teach him to read, but with no better success, until she chanced to stow him an illuminated parchment manuscript that had belonged to her hus- band. Thomas was wild with delight at seeing the yellowed old manuscript. threw off his dull apathy and began to study. From the parchment he speedily learned the alphabet, and in order to de- cipher the illuminated letters he at once mastered the science of reading. ’ Hncouraged by this queer sign of intelligence, his mother sent him to school again, only to find he could not, or would not, study. Especially he hated poetry. He Then, all at once, when he was 11, he became a prize student and took to scribbling verses in every spare moment. At 14 he was apprenticed to a Bris- tol lawyer. everything else. An Inspired 7 Fraud. > He did not study much law, but he studied At 15 his career began. A new bridge was built at Bris- tol on the ruins of an old one. Chatterton sent the local newspapers a copy of an ancient manuscript, which he said he found in 2 battered trunk in the attic of his home. The manuscript purported to date from the fifteenth century, and contained an account of the ceremonies that attended the opening of the old bridge. The account was reprinted and caused considerable Chatterton to his next step. talk. This encouraged He announced that the chest of old manuscripts had been bought at a gale by his father, who had used some of the parchments as school book cov- ers. session. Many of the manuscripts, Thomas declared, were still in his own pos- The bulk of them, he said, contained poems by one Thomas Rowley, a „medieval priest. And Chatterton proceeded to copy and distribute these poems. Ne even exhibited some of the stained old parchments to prove his statement. He presented the city of Bristol with a 300-year-old history (also by Thom- ‘ear Rowley”) of the early churches of the city. He sent an emiment theologian a rumbling fragment of one of Rowley’s inspired sermons. All this sort of thing brought the boy a certain amount of local notoriety. But de was ambitious to broaden his fleld of labor. He picked out as.a victim one wef the most prominent men in England.

How a half-educated boy could have written such things is still one of the ‘gnysteries of the ages. Why he did it, instead of profiting by the authorship ahimself, is also a mystery. There was practically no money in it for him. Wal- pole, instead of hailing Chatterton as » prodigy, denounced him as a forger. The lad was discharged by his employers. Everyone shunned him. He went to London tried to make a living as a writer. But the publishers and editors meekly followed Walpole’s lead by blacklisting the boy. Dying f hunger after nearly a week of starvation in his garret room, Thomas spent his last penny for a small dose of arsenic to hasten his death. He was only 17 when he died. He was buried in a pauper cemetery. A few years later all the world began to accluim him as a peerless genius. — — — AFRICAN SONGS RECENT number of the Garten- A laube (Berlin) contains an inter- esting account of the music im- provised among savage tribes. It is these improvisations on the spur of the moment from which the truest idea of the native music can be obtained, since the quick ear of the negro en- ables him to catch European melodies from chance contacts, and these rap- idly pervade the country and pass from group to group. We have long known that negroes rave a particular predilection for music. They sing all the time, everywhere, Apropos of everything. It is, indeed, of very great interest to observe how the art of song aids a race which can neither read nor write to preserve the memory of certain events. Thus there Was composed at Stanley Falls, a few years ago, a song called O Lupembe, in honor of the Major then resident. As surely and as rapidly as the most popular of our own refrains this song | @pread over the whole extent of the » great empire, and today the farthest “@choes resound with its accents. It is becoming very difficult to recog- nige native airs with certitude. When the colored soldiers return to their homes they carry the regimental tunes with them, and their fellow-citizens im- mediately learn these and repeat them incessantly. There is scarcely any oc- casion when the white man can seize upon an authentic improvisation except when one is made in his own honor while upon the march. At a certain moment the negro pos- sessed of the most vigorous. voice, whether it rings true or not, com- mences a recitatif, broken at regular intervals by refrains chanted in chorus by the entire caravan. The European who conducts the caravan is the hero of the song, and no eulogy is adjudged too magnificent for him. If he is a man of gentleness and peace, he hears himself praised as a formidable warrior who has slain hun- dreds of thousands of men. If he is short and lean he is described as a colossal giant. If he has killed a few wild beasts he is acclaimed as a Gar- gantua. ae Our First Secretaries of War | N H first Secretary of War of the United States was Henry Knox, | who was born in Boston 166 years EO, July 26, 1750, of Scotch-Irish parent- me.

Proud of his new responsibilities and quite sure in his own mind that the job, being a political job, would prove a sine- cure, with plenty of pay and little to do, the street-cleaning staff reported bright and early for duty. But the Caucasian head of the department entertained dif- ferent views. All day long he kept the old man busy. Almost before one heap of rubbish had been shoveled into the cart his vigilant eye would spy another. Finally. late in .to the afternoon, the old darky straigh«- ened his wearied form from his task and ran a blistered hand across his dripping j. brow, Boss,“ he inquired, eint you * W JJ ͤ TTT „ ͤĩ˙·— W m Fůãůꝛͤnͥn e . | 4 WALK OVER To THE MUSEUM Lemar Ss 1 — FALL CUTTINGS LIMBING roses are propagated mostly -by hardwood cuttings made in the fall. Many cut-flower roses may be propagated in the same way. Hardwood cuttings are taken from the dormant wood of winter, while softwood or greenwood, cuttings are taken when the plants are in active growth. To make a hardwood cutting, good, strong, well- ripened shoots of the past summer's growth should be selected. These are better if cut between the time the leaves fall and freezing weather. If left until after cold weather, there is danger of injury from freezing. They should be cut into pieces of 5 or 6 inches, with the upper cut just above a bud, and should be tied in bundles with raffia or with string that does not rot easily if exposed to dampness. After labeling plainly, they should be buried in moist sand, tops down, and placed in a cool cellar, or buried in the open ground be- low: danger of frost. They should be planted in the open ground, in the spring, about or a little before corn- planting time, so that one or two eyes, or not over one inch of the cutting, are above the ground, which will leave four or five inches in the ground. Care must be taken not to injure the calluses that have formed while the cuttings were buried. Sometimes better results are obtained by planting in partial shade. Frequently cuttings made in winter or early spring do nearly as well as those made in the fall, but in the North there is always danger of the wood being in- jured during the winter. } Use for Baking Powder and NE of these cans, with a few na'l holes in each end, is a good soap O shaker.

No,“ she added suddenly, glancing at her tiny Wrist-watch; “T think we'd better call a taxi. Oh! There goes an OMNIBUS. Glorious! Let's climb on top, and be joggled home!” and she hailed the fat, green vehicle with one hand, and dragged the Bachelor along by the coat sleeve with the other. ‘Whew!’ he exclaimed, as he sank panting into the seat beside her. Noth- ing changes quicker or oftener than a woman’s mind!“ “Nothing,” agreed the Widow cheerfully, except a man’s heart—and the fashions, and the weather! But you don't understand the processes of a wom- an's reasoning, or vou'd be more lenient, and patient with us. I really DID think I should rather walk’’—— “Oh, did you?” inquired the Bachelor mockingly. “And then it suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't the time, and that my shoes pinched a little, so I thought of a taxi“ “Yes, yes. Go on!“ urged the Bachelor, between jolts. „And then I saw an omnibus coming—and it struck me that we could make just as good time, and get @ lot more air and exercise, trying to stick on top of one of these things“ 10 UITE right!“ agreed the Bachelor, clutching at the railing, as the bus lurched over a crossing. I know just how a cocktail feels now, when it is being shaken. But, why don’t you women show a little leniency and forbearance toward the lightning changes of a man’s heart? He follows your same processes of reasoning. He really DOES think he wants to marry a girl—and then it suddenly Occurs to him that“ “Not until after he has kissed her!“ put in the Widow quickly. Nothing occurs to him before that. His reasoning is always ‘accessory AFTER the kiss!’ ”’ “Well, after he has kissed her,” acknowledged the Bachelor good-na- turedly, “it suddenly occurs to him that he hasn't the time, or the money; or ‘the shoe pinches’ somewhere—or, he gets cold feet, and decides that he had better take a taxi, and flee. And then he sees ANOTHER girl” HAT is not his method of reasoning at all,” interrupted the Widow 1. emphatically. He hasn't any method; he just follows his natural instinct. A man never desides to marry any sirl; it is the girl who decides that. He simply goes blindly along, searching for his Ideal Woman—that impossible creature, with all the virtues of an angel and all the fascinations of a devil—and every new girl looks just like an IDEAL, until” „Until he finds her out!“ finished the Bachelor, triumphantly. Until he discovers some human flaw in her,” corrected the Widow. “Until he discovers that she is a little too cold, or a little too affectionate: a little too old or a little too young; a little too frivolous, or a little too serious; a little too wise, or a little too foolish—in short, that she is nei- ther an angel nor a devil, nor a ravishing combination of both, but mere- ly a human being, like himself! And then, he sees ANOTHER girl, whom he has NOT found out, nor analyzed—nor kissed. And lo! the ‘pursuit’ of the IDEAL’ is on again.“ „Bravo!“ cried the Bachelor. “How did you ever discover us? I never even know, myself, how I—why it always happened like that.” ND he never would marry at all,” concluded the Widow, with a wave of her vanity case, “if some girl didn’t ‘see him first’ and throw dust in his eyes, and make him ‘Ideal’—and marry him, That's why they say Love is blind; but it isn’t love that's blind—it's the man! It isn’t the woman who matches his Ideal, nor the woman who suits him, nor the woman who adores him, but the woman who DAZZLES him, that eventually leads him to the altar—and gets him all tied up!“ “I knew it, I knew it!” cried the Bachelor with conviction. “I knew all the girls were trying to dazzle me. That's why I've always kept my A foolish, impossible eyes wide open!”’ “So much the more chance for some girl to throw dust in them!” laughed the widow, mockingly. “Why don't you stop trying to find an ‘Ideal,’ anyway—and look for a real woman?” Will p ‘see stars’ and forget all about his before he recovers himself. LATENT MICROBISM AND ITS DANGERS ANY a man who has recovered from a severe wound still re- tains within his body some for- eign substance, such as a bullet, a frag- ment of shell, or a bit of metal, cloth or earth. Even in this day of the X- ray this may occur, since in the case of a bad wound, or one which is suppurat- ing freely, or where the intruding object is deeply imbedded, or located in an awkward place, the surgeon may prefer to secure the healing of the wound and the restoration of the patient's strength before undertaking the necessary opera- tion for its removal. Sometimes this subsequent operation is followed by infection in spite of the greatest precaution as to aseptic care. Such infection was considered by Ver- neuil to be due to latent microbism, 1. e., the presence of nocuous germs on the foreign body, which remained quiescent until the circumstances of the operation produced conditions favorable to their development. This view has now been supported by careful investigation on the part of MM. Lecene and Trovin. The Bibliotheque Universelle (Lausanne) pre- sents an abstract of their report on the subject before the French Academy of Sciences: In what does latent microbism consist? It is that in wounds containing a for- eign body generally contaminated, the tissues react by endeavoring to protect as x Turkish Chicken—Clean the chick- en, then cut into pieces at the joints, wash and drain. Melt four tablespoons of olive oll in a saucepan, then cook one-fourth of an onion sliced, and a green pepper, from which the pulp and seeds have been removed, then sliced in the fat until tender and siightly browned, then removed from the fat. Dip the pieces of chicken, roll in flour and add to the hot oil; cook until browned on all sides. Return the onion and pepper to the saucepan, add four cups of cooked and strained tomatoes, one stalk of celery which has been chopped, a tablespoon of chopped pars- ley and just enough boiling water to cover the chicken. Cover and let sim- mer about 50 minutes; then add season- ings and one-half cup of rice which has been picked over and washed. Cook un- til the rice and chicken are tender, add- ing more seasoning if necessary. When the rice is tender drain it from the liquid in which it was cooked and place it lightly on the platter around the chicken. Serve at once. Use the liquid in which the chicken and rice wre cooked to make a sauce.

But as soon as the wound id reopened for the extraction of the projectile they are liberated and revived; they begip to pullulate and the wound suppurates afresh despite aseptic precautions. MM. Lecene and Trovin do not rest content with this explanation that such a wound begins to suppurate because of the germs which it has retained. They make a special recommendation that in cases where the wounded man had suf- fered from tetanus no fresh operation should be performed upon him even after complete recovery without a pre- liminary injection of anti-tetanic serum.

The school and hospital will stant with nearly $8,000,000. The institution is to be an extension of the University of Chicago, to which Rockefeller already has given $35,000,000, and it is to have two features which mark oka the oll king and his advisers have said fs an essential feature of the medical school of the future. First, a staff of physicians and sur- geons of the highest standing, who will give their. entire time to teaching, care of the sick\in the hospital and research work. Second, a post graduate medical school where professional men can get the learning and experience they now go to Europe to acquire. This plan is being carried into effect on a smaller scale with Rockefeller money at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Bal- timore, and at Washington University, St. Louis, The General Educational Board and the Rockefeller Foundation have given $1,000,000 to the proposed Chicago insti- tution.

BERLIN, Nov. 11, by wireless to Gayvilie—Leaders of all parties in the Reichstag main committee, after the speech Thursday of Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg, to the com- mittee, expressed virtually unanimous agreement with the main points in the speech. All emphasized the importance of the Russian order of 1912, according to which, the Chancellor said, mobi- lization meant a declaration of war against Germany. The speakers stated that the Chancellor’s descrip- tions of the origin of the war ought to be known to the whole world, not only to neutral, but also to hostile belligerent countries. They also indorsed the Chancel- lor’s views concerning an interna- tional league for the preservation of permanent peace, and expressed their agreement with such views. (The Chancellor in his speech gave a new version of some of the events im- mediately preceding the beginning of hostilities in 1914, in which he said the action which made the war unavoidable was the Russian mobilization order of the night of June 90. He said Russia had been encouraged to prosecute war by promises of France’s support, which had been brought about by certain as- surances given to France by England. He also expressed Germany’s willing- ness to join in a movement for an inter- national league to enforce peace after the war, although he expressed doubt that. Great Britain’s aims in the war would permit of a satisfactory basis be- ing found for such an agreement of the nations.) Papers’ View of Speech. The morning papers treat: the speech of the Chancellor as a document of the utmost importance in throwing light on the responsibility for the war, the character of peace and the subsequent political status of the world, and of Belgium, in particular. What the Im- perial Chancellor said concerning the Russian imperial order announcing mo- bilization as equivalent to war against Germany and the Chancellor's own communication to Austria-Hungary, are regarded as convincing proofs of the justice of Germany’s course in the crit- ical week preceding the breach, but the newspapers generally express re- great that these matters were not pub- lished earlier. World Peace and Zelgiu What Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg has ‘said about German?y’s willingness to enter a world union for compelling peace is indorsed generally, except by some conservative newspapers. The Kreuse Zeitung, however, indorses it. The Vorwaerts points out that in fa- voring the settlement of difficulties by arbitration, the Chancellor takes up an old Socialist plank, and hopes also that the Chancellor’s speech will tend to disperse the clouds of distrust in enemy: countries. The Imperial Chancelior’s remark that he never demanded the annexation of Belgium is generally treated as equiv- alent to a definite denunciation of an- nexation.

E. Smith. — — James E. Smith, member of the Cam- paign Committee of the Democratic Na- tional Committee, today gave out a fore- cast of the presidential election given to him last Saturday by United States Sen- ator Walsh of Montana, Manager of the Chicago headquarters of the National Committee. The forecast was intended to show that Wilson could be re-elected without New York, Illinois, Indiana and New Jersey, and was based upon re- ports made to Walsh from all the states. Here aré the states which Walsh said his reports showed would certainly go for Wilson: Alabama, 12: Arizona, 8; Arkansas, 9; Colorado, 6; Florida, 6: Georgia, 14; Kentucky, 13; Louisiana, 10; Maryland, 8; Mississippi, 10; Missouri, 18; Montana, 4; Nebraska, 8: North Caro- lina, 12; South Carolina, 9; Oklahoma, 10; Tennessee, 12; Texas, 20; Virginia, 12; Ohio, 24; New Mexico, 3; North Dakota, 5; Utah, 4; Nevada, 3: Idaho, 4, and Wisconsin, 13. Total, 256. States strongly leaning toward Wilson: Washington, 7; West Virginia, 8; Kan- sas, 10; Minnesota, 12, and California, 18. Doubtful: Connecticut, and Ore- gon, 5. All other states, in this forecast, were conceded to Hughes. Walsh's figures showed that ff Wilson carried the states which reports indicated he would, and picked up 11 votes from the states strongly leaning toward him, or doubt - ful, he could be elected, although losing the states which have heretofore been considered necessary to carry a presi- dential election. It appears from un- official returns that the President car- ried all the states which Senator Walsn classified as certain for him, with the exception of Wisconsin, which went to Hughes, and New Mexico, which fs still in the doubtful column. To make up for these losses, he car ried Kansas, California and Washiigton, in the states set down as leaning toward him, and lost West Virginia. Minnesota fa still doubtful. He lost Connecticut and Oregon, which Senator Walsh put in the doubtful column, but has a chance to carry New Hampshire, which Walsh had conceded to Hughes. MR, AND MRS..M’ADOO 70 BE J. M. L.

To minimize the interruption of traf. fic on Locust street, during its recon- struction between Jefferson and The- resa avenues, but one block will be paved at a time. Traffic will be diverted to ther streets for that distance and return to Locust street at the next block. In addition to the repaving of Locust street, the thoroughfare will be widened from 36 feet to 42 feet by adding three feet on each side. To do this the side- walk spaces have been reduced. Forty trees have been removed to permit this increase of width. The city awarded the Heman Construc- tion Co. the contract on Oct. 10. The company has already excavated the street on the north side from Jefferson to a point near Theresa avenue. Part of this work has been done also on the south side. The concrete foundation will be laid on these strips on each side be- fore the asphalt paving is put down. Then the contractor will use his éntire force in paving each block, beginning at both ends. It is expected that two days will be re- quired for the paving of each block, so that the work will be finished in about three weeks if the weather remains fa- vorable. If bad weather interferes; Director of Streets and Sewers Talbert says, only one block will be out of use while the contractor is kept waiting. wirector Tal- bert declined to predict when the recon- struction will be completed. The cost of the work will be $68,133.95. * SATURDAY EVENING, MOTORCYCLE MACHINE GUNS TO BE CHANGED FOR U. S.

He added that he had Paid particular attention to experimental motor cycle machine guns and that sev- eral changes would be made in the ma- chines used, although they had proved entirely practicable for work in this part of Mexico. He also said light motor cars were being considered, if they were found more serviceable. Some sort of reinforcement for those portions of web bandollers that are most quickly worn through by cartridge clips, he said, also was being considered.

THIRD OF ML CEEK SHER BLS UNPAID Taxpayers Notified All Outstand- ing Amounts Are Now Drawing Interest. Efforts to collect the special tax levies for the construction of the Mill Creek sewer have resulted in whole or partial payments being made upon bills rep- resenting about two-thirds of the total levy of $3,200,000, according to James A. Noonan, manager of the special tax department of the Mercantile Trust Co., to which part of the bills have been as- signed for collection by the Carter Con- struction Co., in whose favor they were issued. Noonan said he thought that numer- ically fully 6 per cent of the bills have been released, despite the attempts of some property holders to organize a fight against the validity of the tax bills. In the last few days those who have not made payments on the bills have received by registered mail the third notice that the bills are now due and drawing interest. Noonan said these notices were sent out by the construc- tion company, not with the idea of forcing early payment, but to remind any delinquent property owners who might have overlooked or failed to re- ceive the first and second notices. Thé first notice was served by the City Marshal early in August, and the second notice was mailed out by the trust company. Some persons who received these no- tices said they believed an effort was being made to collect as large a part of the sewer tax as possible before the opposition of some of those taxed might result in litigation, tying up the whole procedure. Noonan said that so far as he knew HUNTIN’ trip without yo’ trusty is about as lonesome as a honeymoon without yo’ blushin’ bride. pipe ND ‘Yo’ Trusty Pipe” without, and Mrs. John Steuver. — fen“: r H-.

How they fare all the wa through you can learn by reading he Nest Builder,” by Beatrice Forbes- Robertson Hale. Mrs. Hale tells a good story, and tells it oncommonly well. It neither lags nor we races. It does not allow the reader to — Np noth over some pages and get into hysterics in other pages, as iso many „ modern authors do, It is a story told in dan even manner. „Tue characters are clearly drawn. Be- sent ‘ fore you close the book you are almost —ů—— THE NEST BUILDER. 1 — —— 8 ise: — — * which would as well have remained un- told, and then, at the end, he, tells you, on the assurance of a multitude of in- credulous persons to whom the tale is represented as having been related, that females like Inga Sonderson do not ex- ist. And he goes away laughing at you tor having half-way ‘believed that a| female of that sort might have existed somewhere some time. These literary fellows must have their little jokes. Back of Johnson's joke is the subtle fronic implication that such women do} exist, but that the obtuse multitude is unaware of their existence. It takes 2 novelist of the Johnson sort to find her. Well. but it is still a joke. More sar- donic, that's all. There are Inga Son- dersons but they are so exotic that it takes Owen Johnsons to find one of them and write 468 pages about her. You see, if vou have read 48 pages about a sort of woman who is as occa- sional as that, the joke is on you whether Johnson exactly meant it as a joke or not. “The Woman Gives“ is the story's name. Inga Sonderson is the name of the woman who gives. She gives her- self for the regeneration of a pair of dissolute artists who seem scarcely worth regenerating except that one can paint pretty good pictures and the other can sculp pretty good sculpture. We need pictures and sculpture, to be sure, but pictures and sculpture at the cost of a woman's giving are too expensive. First it was the sculptor. He was re- generated by the woman who gave. Then she went away. Then it was the painter who needed regeneration and she gays again. He was a rather de- cent fort in one way. He would not permit her to give without benefit of clergy. That wasn't her way and she held out quite a while against the bond- age of marriage. She gave in at last, very reluctantly, and with the proviso that when she wanted to quit the mar- riage bonds would not hold her. Well, hy and by, the sculptor needed to be re- generated again and as the job of re- generating the artist was finished, she told him she guessed she would have to be going, as the sculptor was head- ed for the gutter again and needed her. So she weht back to the sculptor and is busy regenerating him when the story ends. There is a bizarre assortment of Bohe- mians of both sexes who disport them- selves with rakish inconsequentiality and are addicted to noctural feasting. when they have the price. They are not really needed in Inga Sonderson’s scheme of regeneration, but they are brought along as samples of life“ as Owen Johnson sees it. When Inga Sonderson was completing the regeneration of the painter she took ‘him apart into quiet places, miles and miles from the white lights. It made a human of him. That sort of thing might be good for Owen Johnson, when he goes into training for his next book. (Little, Brown & Co.)

His departure was a climax of lin- gering kisses, admonitions and ex- horta..ons; his return a triumph.

There were five white ponies and five black ponies kept for his pleasure, but he said he was tired of riding. Then the Queen gave him chariots and boats of all kinds, but he simply turned up his nose and fretted and grew paler each day. The cooks made every kind of dish they could think of.

So, dressed in his plain suit and with the hoe in his hand, he went to the field. At first it was hard to hit so as to turn the sod, but soon he became interested and dug wel. At noon the old woman called him in to a simple dinner, and he found, to his surprise, that it tasted good. So did the cool water from the well.
