With a yearning for a greater speed record than he could attain with the bicycle provided by his employers, Mc- Kinley Reed, a telegraph messenger boy, 16 years old, last night comman- deered an automobile owned by Dr. E. H. Henckler, of 3512 North Fourteenth Street, after abandoning the bicycle. The machine was taken frrom Twelfth and Carroll streets. Three other boys were riding in it with Reed when he was arrested at Clayton and Euclid avenues. Reed told policemen he was using the machine to deliver messages. -The bi- cycle which he had abandoned could not be found.

Bullet BOOKS SEIZED IN ELECTION DISPUTE OF SHAREHOLDERS ok Arthur Candy and Sister, Locked in Candy Bros.’ Plant, Leap From Window With Records. FACTIONS EVENLY DIVIDED Seléction ‘Today of Successor to Joses Candy as President, Disputed by Him. The aunual meeting of the stockhold- ers of the Candy Brothers Mfg. Co., 120 South Eighth street, this morning resulted in:such a stormy session that Arthur Candy of 4021 Lafayette avenue and his sister, Mrs. Lilly Salzgeber of 3410 Utah street, seized the cash and minute books from the safe and were lecked in the factory by their uncle, Joses Candy of 5033 Minerva avenue, president of the company, in an effort to prevent their departure with the 1 books. Wut the niece and nephew, with their attorney, managed to get out by crawl- ing through a window at the rear of the building and dropping a short dis- tance into anh ashpit. The nephew had the books under his arm. r Ouster Suit Under Advisement. The troubles of the stockholders ss been before Circuit Judge Cave for sev eral weeks, and the Court has under ad- visement a suit to oust Joses Candy as President, and for a temporary receiver for the company. In this action it was alleged that Joses Candy had usurpe: the offices of president and treasurer, by reason of an illegal stockholders: election held in October. Joses Candy owns 248 shares of the company’s stock and his son, Wesley who is secretary of the company, holds two. shares. «Arthur Candy holds 24/ shares, his siSter owns two shares and his attorney one share. There are ..v shares of the company’s stock, and each faction holds an equal amount John P, Leahy, attorney for Arthur Candy and his sister, in explaining the seizure of the company’s books, said the bylaws of the company provide that a stockholders’ meeting be held on the first Monday in January and it was to hold this meeting that he and his cli- ,ents went to the office. Compromise Offer Fails. A proposition was made to Joses Candy, the attorney said, for an ami- cable settlement of the difficulties be- tween the stockholders and it was sug- gested that he be continued as. president of the company and that he permit the election of Arthur Candy as treasurer, giving his nephew the power to counter- sign all checks of the company. Joses Candy declined to entertain the propo- sition, the attorney said. Leahy then placed the names of him- self, Arthur Candy and Mrs. Salzgeber in nomination as directors of the com pany and asked Joses Candy how he voted on them. He voted ‘‘no,’’ and his son voted with him, the attorney said wherevpon the three of the other fac. tion voted for themselves. Leahy then requested Joses Candy, as president of the company, -to announce the election of the three directors. Th president refused to do so, he said, so Lealiy himself announced the elections The attorney contends the three wer.» legally elected, by reason of the fact that theirs were the only names placed in nomination and that Joses Candy voted on them. | Then the three held a directors’ meet- ing and elected Arthur Candy, presi- Continued on Paxe 2, Column i. ithe, . it has shown for POST-DISPATCH alone. . -POST-DISPATCH alone....

PARIS, Jan. 1.—~Raoul Givis Lufbery, the American aviator, nearly scored a double triumph on Thursday in a fight with two German aeroplanes. Lufbery swooped from a great height on the first German machine, sending it crash- ing to the ground. Another speedy German machine immediately attacked him, but Lefbery just managed to pull up before the German dived on him. The pair then chased each other, eacn trying to get behind his adversary and rake his aeroplane with machine gun fire. Lufbery nearly got ahead of the German, but the latter’s machine was too swift and the’ American had _ his wings riddled by bullets. TENANTS STRIKE IN NEW YORK 300 to Refuse to Pay Increase of $1 ' a Month in Rent. NEW YORK, Jan. 1.—A strike of ten- ants against an increase of $1 a month in rent imposed by. landlords who own nearly 20 apartment and tenement houses in the Borough of Bronx, was be- gun at a mass meeting yesterday. Heads of 300 families signed a declara- tion that they would stand together and suffer eviction rather than pay the in- crease,. which becomes effective to- morrow.

Tilted in Spots. — Crowds Without Cards Barred at Jefferson. t. While the New Year was joyously and hilariously greeted in St. Louis, there was less liquid stimulus to the enthu- siasm than ever béfore, as many hotel and cafe proprietors are sorrowfully ready to testify. Rank after rank of wine bottles, drawn up as a reserve force, remained in the trenches through- out the action and the champagne cork artillery didn’t make enough noise to silence a battery of cowbells. A surprisingly small amount of cham- pagne was consumed and. the revelers reveled in the good things which are tangible to the knife and. fork rather than to thogé effervescent and ephemeral products of the vine which can be spilt on an unprotected and defenseless shirt- front. The fact that New Year's Eve fell on Sunday had much to do with this un- usual dryness. Those who expected the lid to be lifted were grievously disap- pointed. It was tilted a bit—that’s all. Under the law, drinks could not be served until midnight, and then only for one hour. In some cases there was furtive serving of drinks in teacups be- fore the prescribed hour, but this did riot appeal to many of the diners. A Precious Wet Hour. Hotel and cafe proprietors were slow to take the initiative in violating the excise regulations. Orders were taken aa early as 9:30 p. m., but the persons giv- ing them were told there could be no serving of drinks until midnight. As a matter of fact the wine was taken to the tables shortly befere midnight so that no time would be lost in the one precious wet hour. At several hotels and cafes, those who ordered wine in advance before 1 a. m. were permitted to remain at the tables and drink it after that hour. Most of the cafe parties broke yp about 3 a. m., but at the Jefferson Hotel, always the scene of the gayest public party in town, the celebrators remained until 5 o'clock, And saddest circumstance of all from the standpoint of the hotel and cafe proprietors was that nearly all of the wine consumed was of domestic vintage, which doesn’t tickle the cash register nearly so much as the foreign kind. After a lapse of 10 years or move'the custom of ‘‘New Year calling’ was re- sumed in St. Louls today. Parties of young men, properly organized fer the occasion, went about in automobiles calling on young women, who had made it known that they would keep ‘“‘opén house.” Crowds Gather agi As early as 9 o'clock last night, crowds began to gather east of Twelfth street, and paarde up and down, trailing bells on the pavement and tooting horne. Scores of au- tomobliies had cowhbells tied: to the rear axies, and the bells bumped along the street, acding to the din. By. a o'clock the noise was at its height. Nu- merous parties of men sought out Jd clubs and réar entrances, and soon ap- peared singing on the streets. At one time three separate quartets were warbling at Seventh and Pine streets in competition with one another, | One was singing a ragtime baliad en- titled, “I Love to See Dear Old Mother Work,” the second one was attempting “America,” while the third, forgetting | “"* that Chrismas was six days past, raised their voices in “Adeste Fidelis,” (Come All Ye Faithful). The crowds were siow in gathering om the cafes, doubtless due to the “act that Cher of Police roung had ‘stated that ! At several places the crowds were below normal. From 9 o'clock un- til midnight dinner was served in all ‘uafes, and the festival spirit increased until midnight, when lights were flashed out everywhere,-and the nolse-making was at its height. Ten minutes before the old year passed away, a funeral march was played at the Jefferson Hotel, and on the stroke of the hour the lights were switched off for 20 seconds while reveille was sounded on bugles, and the words, “Happy New Year 1917,"" were flashed on the wall. Then a shout ‘arose in the crowded dining rooms and lobby, and when the lights were on again wine glasses were raised. As early as 9% o’clock the Hotel Jef- ferson management stationed clerks, de- tectives and policemen at the doors with instructions to admit none without cards given with table reservations. This Was done to prevent the large influx of per- sons from other cafes who for several years past have gone there after mid- night to meet friends and dance. Chimpanzee Star Dances. Dancing began shortly after midnight in the lobby, Which was decorated with red streamers and tiny Christmas bells. There was much applause when a wom- an member of a vaudeville company danced with a trained chimpanzee. By 12:30 the first rush from other ho- tels and cafes was made upon the Jef- ferson. Scores of men and women in evening dress alighted from sautomo- biles and sought admittance. Six po- licemen directed them to the head clerk and the house detective, on guard at the entrances. “Show your cards, please,” courteous request made. Not one in a hundred had cards, but each and every purty loudly protested that he or she was to meet a friend in- side. Sbdon the crowd increased, until the space in front of the three Twelfth street entrances Was jammed with men and women toudiy calling, “Open the door and let us in.’ Protests were voiced when the house detective announced that admission cards were necessary. Women jammed iwainst the plate glass doors and fran- tically beckoned to someone, anyone, inside, to come and open the doors. Men pleaded, cajoled, argued and even threatened the guards. Scores Were Disappointed. Scores left disappointed, but scores of others took thelr places and demanded tiuawt th manager come ‘c thelr rescue, each claiming persona! friendship with him. But the marager discreetly kept away {rom the doors Inside the lobby war packed, and there was no room fer more. d The Maryland Hotel at midnight was darkened, and suddenly streamers of serpentine lights flashed over the heads of the diners.

The Crown Council and the Cabinet immediately as- sembled at the palace, King Constantine t residing. A Cabinet mesting at which the King presided Friday, discussed the siiuetion in the couniry, which is desperate, ac- cording to dispatches received her: from the interior of Greece. The King has instructed the general @taff to hasten by all possible means the transport southward of the Thes- ‘Salian troops.

Guarantees and Reparations Demand- ed by the Entente. t PARIS, Jano 1.—A Havas dispatch from Piraeus, dated Dec. 31, says: “The Ministers of France, Great Brit- ain and Russia yesterday signed a note for presentation to the Greek Govern: ment demanding the following guaran- tees and reparations: “Guarantees—1l, All Greek forces out- side of Peloponnesus to be reduced to a ‘Number strictly necessary to the pres- ervation of order and police duty; all corresponding arms and ammunition to be transported to Peloponnesus, includ- ing all cannon and machine guns; this situation to last as long as the allies Judge necessary. 2.

The Greek Government to make apologies to the allies’ Ministers and flags at some public spot in Athens. “The note concludes with the state- ment that the allies reserve liberty of action in case-the attitude of the Greek Government is unsatisfactory. "The note undertakes on the part of the allies not to permit the armed forces of the national Government to profit by the withdrawal of the royal troops by passing the neutral zone established in agreement with the Greek Government and states that the blockade of the Greek coasts will be maintained until full satisfaction with regard to the above points is accorded.”’ To Prevent the Grip. 3 Colds cause Grip-—Laxative Bromo Quinine *, Grove'’s signature on box, BOOKS SEIZED IN ELECTION DISPUTE OF SHAREHOLDERS Continued From Page One. dent and treasurer, and E.

Nor was it only the good will and gratitude of the Spartans which Acnens would earn by accepting peace, they said; she would further acquire the glory of conferring peace upon all Greece, which Sparta would join with her to preserve hereafter. Wanted Commission Named. The unscrupulous Cleon, replying, re- minded the Athenians of the humiliating truce which they had previously been compelled to accept and declared that 1.0W was the time to recover what was then lost—Nisaea, Pegae, Aroezon and Achaia. The Spartan envoys remained Silent as to this point but urged the raming of commissioners, who might discuss freely and deliberately suitable terms for pacification. ‘Cleon, thereupon, indignantly de- rounced them, declaring that he had suspected from the first that their pur- peses were dishonest, but now the thing was clear—nothing else could be meant by this desire to treat with some few men, apart from the general public. If they really had any fair proposition to make he called upon them to announce it publicly, so that all might hear. Probably Have Full Powers. Thucydides tells us that the Spartan envoys had probably come with full powers, but that to have announced openly the concessions they were ready tc make‘*would have rendered negotia- tions impossible, besides dishonoring them in the face of their allies. Such dishonor would be incurred. too, without ény advantage, if the Athenians should after all reject the terms, which seemed probable. The mission was thus ended, the en- voys returned to Sparta and the war was resumed, destined to go on for 20 years more. The Spartans fought with a renewed spirit of vengeance and after tragic vicissitudes, gradually overcame their enemies. By 404 B. C. the walls of Athens had been thrown down, the Athenian fleet had been captured and the Athenians themselves, including the historian Thucydides, were subjected to the most savage rule by the Thirty Tyrants, under the Spartan Admiral Lysander. The history of Greece from this period is one of rapid decline, ending in its Subjection to Rome as a tributary prov- ince. By STERLING E. EDMUNDS, Lecturer on International Law, St. Louis University Law School. O the student of classical history T the present stage in the great war strongly suggests the peace over- tures of Sparta to Athens, during the Peloponnesian War, 23 centuries ago, che rejection of which marked the beginning of the end of Athenian greatness. The war itself, which lasted 23 years, was a struggle between the two power- ful Greek city-states for Hellenic domi- nance, and in its purposes was not un- like the Austro-Prussian War of 1366 for leadership in the German confedera- tion. Under the wise and brilliant Pericles, Athens had become the first city in the world in wealth, power and architectur- al beauty. Its steady and ambitious growth was viewed by the rival city of Sparta with increasing alarm, until in 431 B. C., repudiating the Thirty Years’ Truce of 14 years before, Sparta re- solved upon war to retain her former dominant position. The parallel begins with Pericles, who has been likened in prudence and 3a- gacity to Asquith, and who was over- thrown when reverses came to Ath- enian arms, by the demagogue, Cleon, whom the-historian, Thucydides, calls, ‘in all respects, the most violent man in the State.’ Sea Supremacy Began to Tell. In the seventh year of the war, when Athenian naval superiority began to ‘ell in its blockading operations in the Pelo- ponnesian Peninsula, the Spartan eph- ors, or magistrates, concluded an ar- mistice with the Athenian Admiral Eurymedon for the purpose of sending a peace mission to Athens, meantime su->- rendering the Spartan fleet as a pledge of good faith. Conveyed to Athens in one of the ene- my’s triremes the envoys appeared per- sonally before the Assembly and humbly requested the appointment of commis- sioners who might conclude a peace.

The reply of the central Powers was collective, but we see no reason why the reply of the allies should be.

In the reply the King associates him- self with the President in willing- ness to do all in his power to pro- mote peace. The note recites the suf- ferings of Greece at the hands of the belligerents on both sides, while the nation has been endeavoring to main- tain neutrality. It adds that Greece bas endured greater hardships from the war than any other neutral and desires the vonsummation of peace. The text of the King’s message fol- lows: “I wish to express, Mr. Presidei, reelings of sincere admiration and live- ly sympathy for the generous initia- tive you bave just taken with the view to ascertaning whether the moment is not propitious for a negotiable enu of the bloody struggle raging on earth. “Coming from tre wise «tatesmen who, tn a period so critical for hu- manity, is placed at the head of the great American republic, this humani- tarian effort. dictated by a spirit. of woe md tmoeking to an honorable peace for all, cannot but contribute greatly towards hastening re-establishment of normal life and as- suring through a stable state of inter. national relations the revolution of hu- imanity towards that progress wherein the United States of America always so largely shares.” Then fo''ows a recit-' of the trials Greece has suffere. from the war, which, on account of the censorship, ft is useless to attempt to cable.

HUES “PELL OUT 1917 WITH SALVOS “FROM GIANT GUNS Weapons Big and Small Fire at Germans One Round, Then Nine, Then One, Then Seven. WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN FRANCE, via London, Jan. J.—The ar- rival of 1917 was welcomed en the West- front by the British and French sol- diers as a beginning of the end of the great world war. There’ may be vary- ing views and theories as to how the end is to be brought about, but there ts no question that throughout the British army there is a conviction that the next 12 months will bring a victorious peace to the allies. : Opinion among the British and French fighters as to how the war wi'!l end is divided. One class believes Germany will be willing to grant extreme conces- sions and another that only military pressure will bring thern the fruits of victory. Both schools are agreed that this is the decisive year. Little Ceremony Along Front. On most sectors of the British front the New Year caused little ceremony. So. many flares.and rockets are sent up from the trenches on these long, dark winter nights that it is impossible to say how many of these tonight were in honor of 1917. There is one sector, how- over, where the British artillery fol- lowed the practice adopted last year of welcoming Jan. 1 with.salvos against their enemy from guns of all calibers. Along this front everythng from ma- chine guns to the biggest of the heavies joined in firing first one round, then nine, then one and finaily seven. Make Sure of the Time. In sending this fiery greeting to the Germans there was a further complica- tion of difference in time, the Germans observing continental time, which is one hour ahead of the British and French clocks. ‘To avoid all doubt, the British artillery o’clock and midnight. Low black clouds scudded over the bat- tle area the last night of the old year and its successor was borne on a howl- ing wind, which caught up and carried away the thunder of the guns. The grim booming’ was swept far beyond the battle lfnes, until it mingled with the church bells summoning the people to prayer in the war-bound villages of France.

It is to be expected the Governor-elect will try to. Keep out of the legislative vrsanization disputes. It is pointed ont that if Senator Morton wins he and his friends likely wilt be willing to let Soine of the Gardner orogram = gv through, but that if Morton is beaten, there is the possibility of an alliance tof the old guard Democrats, of which he is the leader, with the NRerublican srembers. Together they control che rules of the Senate, and it is in the rules that the mischief usually is done. As President pro tem. Morton woula Mame the committees, which, while im- portant, are a minor consideration in comparison with the making of liberal rules. In the last Legislature merito- rious legislation was blocked bv an or- ganized minority, which, at the begin- ning, had the foresight to have provi- sion made that the rules could _ be amended only by a two-thirds vote anc also that no bill could be called up out of its regular order, except by unan- imous consent of the Senate. The ‘top of the calendar then was loaded with bills ahead of measures in which a few Senators were interested for personal or other reasons. The ef- fect was that when a Senator attempt- ed to call up for consideration out o! regular order a “Gry ODI or a corporation measure which never would be reached because of bills ahea‘l of them, there was one Senator whe would object. In the main, the Senators supporting MeClintic are ‘‘dry’’ and the Senators supporting Morton are “wet.” Seve of the eight Republican Senators are ‘wets.’ If the old guard Democrats ea} nA. 10 Start the aa New Year by Opening a Mexcantile Savings Account Your Mercantile Savings Account ould be —— on or before January §th—it will then January Ist. @ Your savings in th Mercantile will. be “under U.

Might Want Gardener to Trade. It is not easy to see how Governor- elect Gardner would care to take a hand in the fight, but the old guard element of the party is not in accord with Gard- ner’s ideas, and if it is in control of the Senate machinery, the Governor-elect probably can hope for little except what he could get if he would consent to trade jobs for votes for his measures. The situation regarding the proposed Lamm-Gardner contest appears to be that when Lamm presents his petition for a contest the Senate and the House it will be re- jected, and Gardner will be declared elected. After the Legislature is or- ganized a committee of the two houses probably will be appointed to investi-. gate election frauds. Job Hunters Are on Hand. The hotel lobbies in Jetferson City al- ready have begun to fill with the ‘‘mil}- ing’ crowd, always in evidence during the few days before the Legislature con- venes. [t, for the most part, is com- posed of the same men who were on hand two years ago, many of them hav- ing been here two years prior to that time. Some of the job hunters they first came to Jefferson City. Few of the legislative jobs pay more than $3.50 a day, and as it would be difficult to save any large amount at the pre- vailing prices for room'‘and board in Jefferson City, there is some interest aroused in the question of how some of them live between Legislatures. Several young women are in the crowd soliciting votes for the job of folder, the salary of which is $ a day. Although there hasn't been anything for the folder to fold for many years; the Legislature each year solemnly elects a folder, who usually folds her hands and sits in the gallery, surrounded by admiring clerks, on the days she comes to Jefferson City for her salary. PASTOR DENOUNCES BABY PARTY AT ST. LOUIS COUNTRY CLUB The Rev. John L, Brandt, in Sermon, Says It Is One of Things St. Louis Should Feel Ashamed Of. Rev. Dr. John lL. Brandt, of the First Christian Church, “Things That Occurred in 1916 That We Should Feel Ashamed Of,’’ placed the “‘baby party” given by Mrs. Julius S. Walsh Jr., Fri- day night at the St. Louis Country Club, in this category. He character- ized the crime record in St. Louis, the Mill Creek Sewer banquet, wine rooms and unlawful cabarets as things to feel ashamed of and then, reading from last Saturday's Post-Dispatch, called at- tention to ‘“‘a certain ‘baby party’ of grown-ups who set a bad example for the young.” “When they stoop to such antics as reported in the papers,’’ Dr. Brandt de- clared, ‘‘such conduct has a tendency to widen the breach between the rich and the poor; to-make anarchists and to set a bad example for our young men The pastor ‘and women.” EMIL BOSSCH IS RELEASED Employers Refase to Prosecute Youth Who Stole Goods.

QUEBEC, Jan. 1.—Sisters of Charity were without outside aid in rescuing inmates of the St. Ferdinand de Hali- fax Insane Asylum at St. Ferdinand de Halifax, Megantic County, when fire destroyed the building late ~.Saturday night, resulting in the death of #% women inmates and one sister. The old building was in a remote dis- trict, far from other habitations, and not a single man reached the place until after the 44 women had perished and the sisters had saved the remaining 13 inmates and 3% girls attending a school conducted in a wing of the struc- ture, Advices received here today indicated that the loss would not exceed $100,000. The cause of the fire was not known. St. Ferdinand de Halifax is in an al- most inaccessible section of the prov- ince. The fire started while the in- mates were asleep and apparently spread rapidly. The inmates of the asylum were un- controllable and many of them were said to have leaped from high windows. Others, in bewilderment, crouched in ter- ror near the windows until the flames caught them. Owing to the intensely cold weather, the mercury registering 20 below zero, the water in the hydrants about the building was frozen and little could be done to stay the progress of the flames. Many of the girls who fled from the scene were located by villagers, who took them to their homes. FATHER AND SON ARE BURIED Parent Dies Soon After J. P. Fontion, Who Was Candidate for Governor.

MAN ARRESTED FOR PRESENTING FORGED BOND TO THE POLICE Moses Flannagan Says “Stranger” Gave Him Document to Obtain Release of Former Convict, Moses Flannagan, 22 years old, of 385! St. Ferdinand avenue, a clerk, was rested last night for presenting a forged bond for the release of Tony Ortell, an ex-convict, at the Laclede Avenue Sta- tion. The bond was are- signed “Provisional Judge Chester H. Kern, Court of Crimi- nal Correction, Branch No. 2.” Kern, an attorney, who has been sitting as a provisional Judge, declared that he did not sign the bond. Flannagan explained that ‘“‘Pat Malo- ney, a stranger,’’ gave him the bond at Eighteenth and Market streets, and re- quested him to leave it at the Laclede Avenue Station. Ortell was arrested Friday night in a motor car’in which the police found burglar tools. 4 ) ¥ - @ an % e Pe Ss : Will Close With “The Follies of Every Woman,” After Three: - Years’ Existence. The first week of the new year will be the last week of the Park Opera Company, which for nearly three years has been holding the boards at the Park Theater,’ Delmar boulevard and Ham- iiton avenue. The fital offering which will close. the company’s career in St. Louls is “The Follies of Every- woman.” Earl C. Thompsea; who has held a lease on the theater for eight weeks, says there ts little likelihood that the finances of the property can be so re- arranged that it will be worth his while to rénew the lease when it expires Jan. &. There is a $22,000 mortgage on the property and foreclosure proceedings are pending. Thompson says he will roi retain his interest in the theater “un- less there is a change in condiagas * in the next day 6r two.” The Park Theater opened Jan. @, 1913. with Willlam J. Flynn as general m ager. Associated with Fiynn were A thur Fitzsimmons and James Hagerma Jr.. former City Collector and now re- tiring from office as Circuit Clerk. The Park Theater Stock Company had established a record as being the only organization of its kind which had ap- peared in opera and musical comedy consecutively for practically three year= without any summer vacation intermis- sions. The theater had considerable vogue for a time, and many regulars have been faithful to the end. Flynn strengthened the company’s forces from time to time by bringing Broadway stars here for temporary en- gagements. While the artistic results were all that he expected, the tne patronage as a result of these engage ments did not meet the expense and there was a constantly growing variance between the debit and the credit side of the ledger.

Smith, 38 yearse old, and his wife, 0. were found dead in the basement of their home here last night. There were no marks on the bodies. HE increasing cost of labor and raw materials (particularly cotton fabric) has made it necessary to advance prices to Dealers and Consumers — effective January} l, 1917— 15% on Pneumatic Automobile Tire Casings and Motorcycle Tire Casings and 10% on Pneumatic Tubes and Motor Truck Tires. Present abnormal condi- tions fully justify a greater in- crease, and should they con- tinue, a further increase may become necessary.

The next long advance was the ulb containing a _ tungsten filament—a metal “wick” substituted for a mineral _ (carbon), which is not a metal—also in a vacuum. That lamp used only 1.25 watts of energy to get one . eandle power of light.

O, Providence! saith the Ete nal Woman, in this the season of mira- golden gifts and guod will, of heart's desire and youth's delight, I prav Thee: Send me LOVE’ Send me the love of man—and of woman: of little children and of dumb animals; of youths and damsels—and those who have passed into the after- giow of life’s sunset: of waiters and bellboys and clerks and chauffeurs, yea -and even of janitors' The love of man—may he find in mo the spirit of romance, the embodiment of his illusions, and the Ideal Woman of his dreams. : The love of Woman—may she find 11 me the Perfect Friend-—yea, not in vain, may she trust me! rhe love of little boys—may they discover in me the joyous spirit of child- hood and adventure and camaraderie. ; And of little girls—may they recognize in me the yearning spirit of eter- nal motherhood. The love of old ladies—may I somehow bring to them the sweet echo of their lost youth, the glowing remembrance of their dim, dead dreams, the breath of romance long laid away in javender. The love of dumb animals—may they hear in my voice the tenderness of affection, and see in mine eyes the prpmise of protection. The love of poets and dreamers—may they find in me a singing heart—a spark of sympathy, wherewith to light the divine fire of their inspiration. The love of damsels—may they delight to confide in me their hearts’. de- sires. And of youths—may they come to me With their hopes and aspirations, their problems and their triumphs. Of the good—may they love: me for my weaknesses. Of the wicked—may they cling to me for my strength. Of the sad—may they smile at my nonsense. Of the gay—may they be steadied by my philosoph) Of the simple—may they look to me for wisdom. Of the wise—may they delight in my folly and simplicit) Kor lo!

ST LOUS POST -DISPATCH Ignore Scoring Chances Absence of Manager Brannigan Seemed to Disorganize Team, pweay of Locals, Who Are Barely Strong Enough to Re- pulse Invaders, 3--2. LTHOUGH playing the worst game of soccer they have exhibited ‘all season, the St. Leos of the St. Louis league yesterday won from the tse of Homestead, Pa., at Robison Field, 3 to 2. The Leos won because _ they took advantage of the few chances they had to count, while the vis- - itors ‘*boobed’’ up no less than a dozen easy shots. The lack of a good E cénter forward who can shoot cost the Easterners the clash. The absence of Manager ‘Bull’ Bran- ‘“nigan from the line-up seemed to en- " trely disorganize the Leos. They showed Ey Se neither the speed or the team work they | have exhibited in the regular league bat- , tles. Where, in the Bethlehem con- ; * teats, the locals fairly ran the aliens ' off their feet in the closin " the opposite was true yesterday. - closing oo the Leos had jsut two half, just In the to score, and made good on one 3 : of them, although the ball should have - been stopped by Goalkeeper Boyle. 2 > O'Hanlon on His Game. During the clash the forwards of the ' Leos on very few occasions succeeded ' in making anything that looked like a good pass, while only Tommy O’Hanlon in the halfSack line played his regular game. Al Sucher, who was shoved into the line-up, had his troubles, and on _-most occasions played the man instead ‘of the ball. Referee Kavanaugh was forced to call several fouls’‘on him. Coming down to~brass tacks, it was only the great defensive work of Full- backs Abstein and Hack ang Goalkeeper Sheahan and the inability of the visi- tors to shoot accurately when once in- side of the 20-yard line that saved the Leos and St. Louis’ clean record in inter- a ety clashes this season. “Un scoring distance, the Homestead’ aggregation always out- played the Leos all the way: In team work, however, they were far from per- fect, messing matters up any number of times, because one man would stand and wait for the other to play the ball. On the other hand, their passing was ‘far superior to that of the St. Louisans. | Malligan Pulls the ‘‘Rough.” When the game closed the locals were til within | playing with only 10 men, because Eddie Mulligan, the inside right forward of ¥ the team, was put out of the contest ee by Referee Kavanaugh for illegally charging the goalkeeper. The Home- st eleven was willing to allow Mulli- gan to stick in the fray, but Kavanaugh _ stuck to his decision and after an ar- gument that wasted something like 15 minutes, Mulligan was led off the field. And it was after this that the Homestead eleven took new interest “in life” and started rushing the locals off their feet, except for one brief spell when Dike Brannigan car- ried the ball down the field and then passed to a Aa who booted the sphere throug Wit he whaiters fairly rushing ‘the Leos off their feet and having al- most the entire halfback line playing to save shots, left halfback Don of Homestead made a play that helped the locals a great deal. On a throwin, he threw the sphere over the goal line instead of to one of his men, giving the Leos a goal kick. Hack sent the ball out of the soneer zone for a brief spell and gave Speedy Reserves to Tackle Stars Today The Naval Reserves, at present tied for second place in the St. Louis Soccer League and consid- ered the fastest aggregatiun in the circuit, will tackle the all-stars of Homestead, Pa., in the final con test of the series this afternoon. Manager Tate Brady will send all his regulars into the ciash.

The Leos were first to score count- ing after about 20 minutes of play, when Jimmy McCaffery tapped one past Boyle, after A scrimmage in front of the goal. A few minutes later Shearer of the visitors banged through the tieing goal, after a bit of pretty passing. Halfback Johnny Miller sent through the second marker for the locals just before\tne half closed and it was the cleanest one of the five counted. AM#ter Boyle had cleared several shots, Miller came rushing along and slammed one into the net from the 20-yard line. The sphere came so fast that Boyle never had a chance to stop it. After Mulligan had been chased in the second half, Dike Brannigan car- ried the ball down the field, his first and only exhibit of real soccer through the game and crossed to Corrigan, who shot the goal. Boyle had his hands or the sphere, but was unable to hold it. Center forward Jeffrey tallied the final marker of the game. The last 15 minutes of the battle were the most interesting in the en- tire game. In this time, the visitors missed one shot after another, al- though Abstein, Hack and Sheehan cleared several well-directed boots. The victory gives St. Louis three victories and one tie in the holiday classes. It’s up to the Navals to keep this record clean.
