The will of Mrs. Ellen Butler, widow of “‘Col.’’ Edward Butler, once a power politics and. known as Louis, was filed today in the Probate Court.

Mrs. Butler, name, made ‘her when it was witnessed on April 28, 1915. Forest P. Tralles the attorney who filed the will for the heirs, said, however, that Mrs. Butler had been able to read and write a little. She died Dec. 18 last, ut the age of 70 years, and had lived at the old Butler home at 3501 Pine street. street.

Divided Into Five Equal Parts. The Butler fortune is divided into five equal parts, so that a million dollars will be distributed to a surviving son, a surviving daughter, and the children of two dead sons and one dead daughter. The heirs are: JAMES J. BUTLER, a son. who lives with his wife and 19-year-old son, Edward L., on a farm near Kirkwood. He is 54 years old, and is deaf and blind. He formerly was Congressman from the Twelfth Mis- souri District. Inherits $1,000,000. MRS. LESLIE J. BLACKMORE, a daughter, living at 325 North Tay- lor avenue. Inherits $1,000,000. EDMOND LINCHEY, grandson. About 21 years old; lives with his father, Peter Linchey, at the old Butler home, 3501 Pine street. His mother was Anastasia ‘Butler Lin- chey. Inherits $1,000,000. THE FIVE CHILDREN OF THE LATE EDWARD BUTLER JR. They are Mrs. Agnes Butler Wagner, Marie Butler, Keating Butler, James Butler and Edward Butler. Mrs. Wagener, the eldest, is about 2/7 years old. and lives in Omaha with her husband, Anthony Wagner, a lawyer and formerly a St. Louis football player. The other four live with their mother, Mrs. Elia Butler, at 599 Pine street.. a few doors from the old Butler home. Each grand- child inherits about $200,000. THE THREE CHILDREN OF THE LATE JOHN R. BUTLER, They are John Butler, 16 years old; Edward, 14, and James, 13. They live at 5727 Waterman avenue with their mother, Mrs. Robert E. Con- way, whose husband is the general manager of the Armour Packing plant in East St. Louis. Each grand- child inherits about $333,333. Three Trust Funds. James J. Butler and his sister, Mrs, Blackmore, come immediately into pos- session of their legacy. The other three- fifths of the estates are left in three trust furids, one for each set of grand- children. Each grandchild, upon at- taining the age of 21, is to receive the entire income from his or her share of the estate, and each grandchild, when 30 years old, gets complete possession of his or her share of the principal. All money loaned or advanced by Mrs. Ellen Butler to her children or grandchildren is now to be considered as a gift to them from her, and they are not to account to the estate for the money advanced. What these amounts were is not set forth in the will. If Edmond Linchey, the grandson who inherits $1,000,000, or a child’s full share, should die without issue before attain- ing the age of 30, his one-fifth share of the two estates would revert to the heirs at law of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Butler. In the event of issue, his heirs at law would come into his share of the estate. This provision of the will ex- cludes Edmond's father, Peter Linchey, from possible benefit from the estates unless Edmond attains the age of 30, when he can dispose of his property by will as he chooses. In the event of the death, without issue, of any child of the late John Butler and the late Edward Butler Jr., before attaining the age of 30, the share of such child will revert to the trust fund created for the grandchildren, and be shared by the surviving heirs of John and Edward Butler Jr. $1000 Left to a Widow. The only other bequest in Mrs. But- ler’s will was $1000 left to Ellen Clark, described as a widow. The son, James J. Butler, and the Mercantile Trust Co., are named as executors, without bond, of Mrs. Ellen Butler’s estate. They are also exeéou- ‘tors of the Ed Butler estate. In the event James J. Butler shall die before the final settlement of his mother’s es- tate in the Probate Court, his wife, Rose M. Butler, ts to be co-executrix in his stead. It is said that the affairs of James J. Butler already are largely tn the “Continued on Page 2, Column 4. ‘ [GOV, MAJOR WILL PARDON 100 YOUNG CONVICTS SATURDAY This Will Be Submitted by Board and It Will Be Executive's, Last Official Act.

GERMANY BUSY BUILDING GUNS FOR THE CAMPAIGN OF 1917 Coneentratiing on Mighty Manufac. turing Effort; Producing Many \ Machine Guns, By Pie ae Press. BERLIN, Jan. 2, by wireless.—Many thousand guts per week is reported to be the measure of the mighty manufac- turing effort which Germany is making for the campaign of 1917—an effort upon which the entire manhood force of the nation which can be spared from the front and their regular occupations is being concentrated under First Quarter- master-General von lLudendorf’s uni- versal labor service law. Counting four months before the prob- able renewal of the world war in full vigor on all fronts, these figures mean a new immense supply of cannon of all cal- ibers from field guns up to the gigantic howitzers, to meet the admittedly gigan- tic effort which the entente allies are expected to make in this the third year of Kitchener's prophecy to turn the scale of the war. Along with these guns the German factories are turning out corresponding- ly stupendous quantities of ammunition, and the production of machine guns, each of which virtually replaces a platoon of men, has been placed on a scale far beyond that of the past year.

Holman, president of the Holman Paper Box Co., Eighth street and Chou- teau avenue, for an automobile he tried to sell the Holman company and which he left in the concern’s possession on trial. At the conclusion of the trial Justice Rice and Holman had a passage of words when Holman remarked that he “knew what ‘would happen before he came.” The case was appealed by Holman’s at- torney. - Paul O. Sommer, until recently secre- tary of the Holman company, who quit when an audit of“his books was begun about two weeks ago and who is said by Holman to be short in his accounts with =x e company more than $7000, was a wit- for Holman. He testified to hav- ing offered a check to Mount for $140 to cover damages Mount claimed was done his car. Helman on the stand said the check Sommer testified about was drawn for $10 when he signed it and was raised to $140 after it left his hands.

Re ANOTHER WOMAN IN CASE Detectives Expect to Arrest Her as Witness and Man Friend as Slayer. Special to the Post-Dispatch PHILADELPHIA, iy ?—City Magis- trate Harry J. Imber has made a vol- untary statement to the police, admit- ting that he knew Grate Roberts, the model, who was found murdered in her apartments at Poplar lifteenth streets,’ Friday. The Magistrate said he called the Roberts woman on the telephone be- tween 11 and 11:30 o'clock Friday morn- ing, and the police believe that he is the last man who spoke to her except the person who murdered her. Following the development of Magis- trate Imber’s talk with the police con- cerning his knowledge of the woman's family history, it was announced this efternoon that detectives on the case had a man and a woman under sur- veillance and that they might arrest them at any moment. It is intimated that the man is sus- pected to be the actual slayer and that the woman, his friend, is wanted as an important witness. One detective mae this significant statement late today: “If things turn out according to our plans, we will have the slayer in cus- tody before the day is over. \Ve are -cer- tain that we are on the right track and there will be interesting developments.’’ Magistrate Imber who was elected on & reform ticket, was the first pf several men, some of whom are said to be prom- inent in the social, political or club life of Philadelphia, whose photographs were found on the dresser in the slain woman’s bedroor’: to be ‘questioned. The photographs, or many of them, were autographed: A large number of letters were found in the rooms. Many of them are love letters, some impetuous in prétestations of affection: At least 12 prominent Philadelphians have beea questioned by the police. Magistrate Imber declared that he had called up the Roberts woman in connection with some theater tickets. It was 11 o’clock Saturday night that her body was dis- covered, clad in blue silk pajamas. Her skull had been fractured, and she had been: strangled. It is believed she had been dead several hours before the body was discovered. The Magistrate said that he had known Grace Roberts for many years. and that he had believed that she did not get along well with her family. and Taxi Driver Questioned. The police also questioned closely Elwood Powell, a taxi driver, who said he had driven a man to the Roberts’ apartment early Friday morning. Under surveillance is an up-State Pennsylvan- ian, a man of wealth, who is living in this city. Grace Roberts’ real name was Maisie Colbert. This much her brother and sister admitted to the police, They said she had never been married, but had merely assumed the Roberts name. ‘‘Eleanor,’’ the negro maid employed by the Roberts woman, was located in Milford, Del. She will be brought here for questioning. She was dismissed a few days before Christmas. Negro Janitor’s Story. Richard Benjamin, negro janitor of the apartment house where the murder occurred, told the police that there was a man who was a frequent visitor to the Roberts apartment. This man, the negro said, always drove up in a seven- passenger touring car and tooted his horn when he arrived. Then the Roberts woman would come to her window, and if she was alone she would signal him and he would go in. But if she were not alone, the negro said, she would make another signal and he would wave his hand and drive on. “‘We nicknamed him the ‘Bulldog’ around here,’ the janitor said, “because of his pecullar looks.” So far the police have been unable to find where the stained man’s shirt and collar found in the apartment came from. The finger prints discovered about the room have proved too blurred and indistinct for police purposes.

By a Staff Correspondent of tae Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Jan. 2.—The Post- Dispatch learned today that the D. M, Oberman Manufacturing Co, recently sold a large wholesale dealer 1000 dozen work shirts for a uniform price of 4.1 a dozen, and that they will be sold to the retail trade by this dealer in the same lots with shirts for which he has been paying $6.50 per dozen in the open market. The shirts contracted for are being manufactured in the clothing plant owned and operated by the State of Mis- souril, of which Oberman is the chief competitor. This dealer will thus realize an ex- tra profit of $1 per dozen on _ all shirts he obtains through Oberman at that price. The price for which Oberman obtains the shirts from the State factory, and the profit will not be divulged by Superintendent Park- er of the State factory, who refuses to permit an examination of the rec- ords, This substantiates the exposure made by the Post-Dispatch last Sun- day of the fact that Oberman has been buying the output of the State factory at less than the market price. When asked to show the records of his sales to Oberman last Saturday, Lester S. Parker, superintendent of the State plant, refused to permit the records to be seen, but did not deny that he had been selling goods for less than the mar- ket price. He explained that it is always necessary for a new enterprise to sell goods below the market price to obtain a large volume of business. The State plant was created by the last Legislature to replace the contract sys- tem which was abolished by law. Par- ker was named superintendent by the State Board of Prison Inspectors and his salary is $5000 a year. The Post-Dispatch also published the fact that Parker is not In favor of the abolition of the contract system at this time, though the law passed two years ago provides that no convicts shall be woiked under contract after Dec. 31, 1916 Aithough Parker says it would not be practical to abolish the contract system at once and install State-owned facto- ries, he admitted that the State factory had earned a net profit of $5,000 during its 14 mont4s of operation, notwithstand- ing that a large part of its raw material has been bought from Oberman.

McClintic Is Opposing John F. Morton for Presi- dent Pro Tem. CAUCUS TEST TONIGHT “Progressives” Propose New Deal in Legislation and Offer a Program. By a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Disgatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Jan. 2-—The |} fight being made ‘by the old guard to / retain control of the Senate of the Mis- souril Legislature, where it has been en- trenched for more than a score of years, and whose rule is being seriously chal- lenged this year for the first time, today assumed a life-and-death aspect. The old guard is determined that Seh- ator John F. Morton, its leader, shall be elected President pro tem. and that there shall be no amendment of the rules to take control of legislation out of its hands. Its strength will not be known until the Democratic caucus tonight, when, Senator Morton or Senator Robert 58. McClintic will be elected President pro tem., which place carries with it appoint- ment of api Senate committees. Each eandidate/declares he has enough votes pledged to win. j The makeup of the forces attacking the rule of the old guard is not such as to inspire absolute confidence in the defeat of the old guard, even if the so-called ‘‘progressives’’ win. The. line- up. is largely along wet and dry issues, though among the progressives are Sen- ators who are fighting principally be- cause they believe that the election of Benator McClintic will mean a new deal in legislation. The program of the progressives is along limes suggested by Senator Robert J. Mitchell of Verona, who withdrew as a candidate for President prq tem. ii. favor of Senator McClintic. “Progressive” Program. Senator Mitchell pledged Senator Mc- Clintic to a program which, if carried cut, would mean the end of boss rule in the Senate. As outlined by Senator Mitchell to the Post-Dispatch corre- spondent it is: 1. The committees should be so or- ganized that no special interest would control any of them; no bill of im- portance should be smothered in com- mittee but be fairly considered, report- ed upon at the proper time and subject- ed to vote of the Senate as a whole upon its merits. 2. By means of caucus or conference at the beginning of the _ session, -there Id be a program of constructive leg- 4 on agreed upon, and this program strictly carried out. %. Separate hearings should be had by appropriations committees of each House and appropriation- measures should be ready for discussion in open session not later than four weeks before adjournment. 4. Bome system should be used to keep appropriations within the estimated in- come of the State, and the appropria- tions committee shoyld be so constitut- ed as to prevent haphazard, reckless ard unbusiness-like methods. &. The practice of adjourning from early Friday morning till late Monday afternoon each week is unfair, pre- vents due consideration of important measures, and should be abolished. 6. The custom of employing useless clerks and attendants and the pay- ment of overtime when no service is rendered is unlawful, reprehensible and ought not to be countenanced by the Senatc. 7. Democrats believe in majority rule, and, for this reason. the Senate rules ought to be so amended that, bY ma- jority vote. a bill ‘or resolution could be taken from its place on the calendar for action by the Senate. The old guard has held its power largely through the two-thirds rule, which provided that the rules could be amended oniy by two-thirds vote. The’ ‘ rules usually contained a provision that no bill could be considered out of its regular order except by unanimous con- sent. House of Representatives.

MAN HAD JUST ENTERED Feud Between the Two That Originated in Row Over a Card Game. Edward Shropsky, 29 years old, of .2100 Carr street, professionai bondsman and saloon keeper, was slain in a wineroom in the rear of his place at 901 Morgan street at 6 p. m. yesterday. The police have ordered the arrest of Joseph Mack, a peddler of 82 North Ninth street, to whom he had refused to sell a drink earlier in the afternoon. There had been a grudge of a month's standing hetween Stropsky and Mack, dating from an occasion in which Shropsky struck Mack on the arm witn a. poker because he refused to fay for drinks which he had lost in a penuchle game. Shropsky was eating supper in the wineroom when he was shot. John Zanone of 2614 Madison street, a team- ster, was acting as bartender and Fred- erick Brookman of 1021 Franklin ave- nue was in front of.the bar. A woman whose name the police have not learned was also in the saloon, having gone there to buy a bucket of beer. Mack entered the front door and with- out speaking to anyone passed through a partition door to the wineroom. Im- mediately two shots were heard. The police say Mack fled through a side door leading to Ninth street. Zanone and Brookman went into the dead on the floor with two bullet wounds in his forehead. Zanone and Brookman are held by the police. It was Zanone with whom Mack was playing penuchle when the feud between Mack and Shropsky started a month ago. Brookman was Mack’s com- panion yesterday afternoon, about an hour before the shooting, when Shrop- sky refused to sell a drink to Mack and ordered him from the saloon. deesx's wife, Ollie, and Hattie Nichol- son of 1021 Franklin avenue, a friend of | Brookman, also are held. The Nichol- son woman shortly after the shooting seemed eager to give information to the police, but her assertions did not agree with those of other witnesses. She said she was in the alley in the rear of the saloon and saw three men run out of the wineroom. An order for Mack’s arrest on a charge of murder has been issued. He has not been at his home § since che shooting. Mack has been a familiar figure in the downtown district. He ‘made daily visits to office buildings as a peddler of coat and trousers hangers which he manufactured. . MAN HURT. IN CAR COLLISION Accident on Wellston Line Causes De- lays on Other Lines. One man was injured in a collision of street cars at 7:45 this morning at Jef- ferson and’ Franklin’ avenues, which caused nearly a half-hour delay. Jacob Hieken, 28 years old, of 6419 Myrtle ave- nue, a jeweler, was sitting in the rear of a Wellston car when the latter was struck by a southbound Jefferson car. ‘| He was bruised and internally injured. The accident, which was due to slip- pery rails and the fog, caused the east- bound Wellston cars to be routed over the Page and Hodiamont lines, which delayed the cars on those lines. _———w ee ee ee SAN DIEGO.

Because three wealthy St. Louisans who died last year failed to make personal property returns, their estates will be forced to nay consid- erably ifm personal’ taxes for 1916 than had been customary for the men to do in their lifetime. In one instance, that of the late James Gay Butler, the difference between the 1915 and 1916 tax is more than $7000. Following Butler's death “Deputy Flood assessed his money and securities at $150,000, his house- hold property at $1000, and two au- tomobiles at $1500, making: a total of $152,600. Under the penalty pro- vided by law this was doubled, mak- ing an assessment of $305,000, on which the tax is $7167.50. In 1915, Butler made a personal return of $2880 and paid a tax of $67.68. The late Daniel Catlin, in 1915, made more a personal property return of $44,570, on which he paid $1047. sonal property was assessed at $150,000, making $300,000 when doubled and the This year his per- tax which the estate must pay is $7050. The late Richard C. Kerens paid $803 in 1915 on a persona return of $12,900. In 1916 his personal property was as- sessed at $50,000, doubled, and the tax. is $2350. The estates of two other men, A. C. Einstein and Charles A. Stix are ex- empt from the payment of 1916 per- sonal taxes because neither of the men was served with a notice prior to his death. In the case of Einstein. a Dep- uty Assessor was working in the block in which the Einstein home is situated on the day Einstein died. in 1916 Einstein paid $51.70 on a re- turn of $2200, and Stix paid $172 on a re- turn of $7320.

CHIN-CHIN CALLS ON THE MAYOR Hall Baby Elephant Walks Up City Stairs to Executive's Office. Arn elephant took possession of the city hall this morning. In a figurative way, the elephant has run things at the city hall for several years, but the one that came today was a regular pachy- derm, with trunk, and ears and every- thing except normal size. It was Chin- Chin, the 8-year-old, 1200-pound ‘‘baby’”’ elephant of the “Hip, Hip, Hooray’’ spectacle at the Coliseum. Chin-Chin walked right upstairs, dis- daining the elevator, and entered the Mayor's office.

AS ROBBER WHO AILLED FUETTERER Another Prisoner Said to Haxe Been Suspect’s Companion in Saloon Holdup. Two young men, arrested last night in a Market street pawnshop by detectives. are being held at police headquarters because of a.remarkable series of cir- cumstances tending to connect them witna recent crime in St. Louis, and in ‘par- ticular with the murder of Lafayette 8. Fuetterer, 26 years old, of 1224 Hamilton avenue, a lawyer, who was shot and killed last Wednesday night-in the sa- loon of his father, Emil Fuetterer, at 2300 Howard street, where he was tend- ing bar when two robbers entered. Two men, who were in the saloon at the time, Oliver F. Dye of 2330 Howard street, and“ Herman J. David of 2332 Howard street, declared this morning, after viewing the suspects, that one of them, giving the name Thomas Semi- nary, is the man who shot Fuetferer. Dye was equally positive that Semiriary’s companion, who said he was Robert Dalcour, was the other robber. David was not so certain of ‘this, but declared Dalcour looked like the other robler. Seminary and Dalcour gave their ages as 18 and 23, respectively; anda said they lived at the Atlantic Hotel, 911 Market street. They said they came from New Orleans. In Daleour’s pocket the police found a- piece of paper on which were names of several persons who have figured in newspaper stories re- cently, including the name of Fuet- terer and his widow, Gladys, and their address. Thére was also the name “Doty” followed by the street number, 4122A Blaine avenue, which was the address of the wife of the Rev. Lot E. Doty, who was shot last Wednesday at Second and St. George streets, by a policeman who mistook him for a tandit. Other Names on Slip. Another name was ‘‘Finnette Teget- hoff, 4401 Evans avenue.” Mrs. Teget- toff figured in newspaper stories last week when her husband was awarded a divorce at Clayton on his plea that he was not the father of her daughter, born shortly after their marriage. Other names were ‘Minnie Schopp, 3516 Fourteenth street,’ and “C. E. Gauss, 476 Main street, Marshall, Michk.”’ When questioned about these’ names Dalcour said he copied them from newspapers for pastime, and both men denied having committed any crimes. The police will ask persons who point- ed out the Rev. Doty to Patrolman Hoener as one of three bandits to look at these two men, who, they say, an- swer the general] description of the two men who had jst left the Rev. Doty vhen a policeman came along. Another notation in Dalcour’s pock- et was that ‘supers,’ or extra men, were wanted at the Jefferson Theater. Seminary had two. unposted letters in his pockets, both addressed and stamped. The police opened both. One was addressed to his sister, : Mrs. vosephine Paynot, 1729 Caroncclet walk, New Orleans. In this letter he said he was out of money, that money his sister had sent had not arrived, and that he was so disgusted that he ‘felt like holding some one up,” as the snow was “three feet deep — and he must eat.’’ The letter was dated Jan. 1. The other letter was to Mrs. Amelia Healy, also of New Orleans, whom he addressed as his ‘“‘supposed friend.’’ In this letter he boasted of having plenty of money and women friends. Seminar: admitted writing both letters, the policé say, but denied any crimes. Roth men .are foreigners, Italians, having black hair and dark skins. THREE HOLDUPS REPORTED James Gyro, 5319 Claxton avenue, was dragged into an alley south of St. Louis avenue, on Warne avenue, by two men last night and robbed of $64. Adam Young of 925 South Boyle av- enue told the police that two men robbed him of his watch at Eighth and Market streets.

Hard- ing, leader of the Independent Voters’ League, an anti-Catholic organization, az one of his deputies. Harding failed of confirmation Saturday, when three of the nine Circuit Judges present in gen- eral session voted against him. His name will be considered again today, and, to be approved, he will have Ao receive the favorable vote of a. majority of the 14 Judges. The Sheriff declared that his sole con- sideration in the appointment was Hard- ing’s capability to perform the duties of his office. He denied that the religious issue had anything to do with it. He cited his appointment of S. F. Mudge as deputy. Mudge, some time ago, he said, went into the Independent Voters’ League for the purpose of exposing it. He expects to appoint, he said, Thom- 28 Kilcullen. a former deputy, who was dismissed by the retiring Sheriff, Dick- mann, on account of an alleged shortage in his accounts as chief execution depu- ty. Kilcullen was indicted on this charge, but Circuit Judge Kimmel sustained a demurrer as to the evidence, causing the case to be dropped. Upon taking office yesterday, Wein- brenner found the Sheriff's office had been stripped of blank forms. He learned they had been given to the White Cross Association, an anti-tuberculosis society conducted by Father Robinson, as waste paper. He recovered a copy of eaca, except one, to use in having new forms printed. a mn mn El et GRANITE CITY MAYOR ORDERS SALOONS TO BE CLOSED SUNDAY Proprietors Notified That Violation of Law WHlll Result in License Forfeiture.

However, the brewers are not taking any chances on the future, and their campaign to clean up the saloons will keep in view the fact that other states, almost as wet as Wisconsin, have al- ready gone dry. Legislation, therefore, will be asked providing that in case the State goes dry it must recompense the breweries for the loss in property value which would result. The clean-up movement, however, is the first consideration. On this the brewers are still working, seeking for some course which will be acceptable to all the members, and as fair as possible to the saloon men. “We are in a peculiar position,” said William H. Austin, counsel for the as- sociation, in outlining the problems of the brewers. “Now the breweries being held re- sponsible, however unfairly, for the law- breaking proclivities uf some saloon- keepers, realize that they must do some- thing to regulate this evil, by raising the standard of the saloon. . As.to-the methods to be pursued, there will be nothing determined until the executive committee meeting in January.”’ The position of one brewer was shown in. the address of the State president, at the recent convention, when William Bahr of Manitowoc spoke as ‘follows in his presidential address: “Strength of the industry depends | 1 os a! —have arrived $27.50 and $30 Coats for : . * i Wool Velour Seal Plush Broadcloth “ Wool Plush a.

SPs ad ‘TOPEKA, Kan., ‘NUMBER OF 1899 e, Epileptics and Feeble- ed in State Institutions Increase 108 Per Cent. Jan. 2.—Harry C. ,» member of the State Board of 2 Cab 6 ret ebtrs Sans Conference of Charities and eebigtions pointed out that, since 1899, the capacity of the Kansas State chari- per cent, and that the institutions were full practically to capacity. There has been an increase of 62 per cent fin the cost in the counties taking care of their charitable work in the Same period, while the population of the State has increased but 17 per cent. Just where to lay the blame for this increase, Bowman did not say, but he insisted that the “‘consumption of intox- icating liquors is only a small factor in poverty conditions in Kansas, and but 2 per cent of the admittances to the State insane hospitals are due to alco- holic psychosis.”’ On June 30, 1899, there were 827 insane patients in the Topeka hospital and 1018 L.ACKERMAN CY Manager 610-612 Washington Ave. in the Osawatomie hospital. Now there table institutions had been increased 100 are 1565 in the Topeka hospital and 1348 in Osawatomie. The Parsons hospital for epileptics did not exist in 1898, but now there are 525 patients there. In 1899 there were 138 inmates of the home for Weeble-minded and now it has 589, mak- ing a total increase of more than 2100 patients in all the hospitals, an increase of 108 per cent in the 17 years. every year until the Governor and all other State officials assert ‘on tax bur- den “‘is becoming irksome.’> It is also pointed out by Bowman that there are $180,000,000 of mortgages plastered over the farms of Kansas, another big drain upon the farm owners. The bonded debt of the municipalities of the State has been increasing at the rate of $4,000,000 a year and now aggsre- gates between $65,000,000 and $70,000,000. Bevo With Dutch lunches.

Many mothers, besides those of Ozark, Mo., have been afraid to sleep at night for fear of being awakened by that dread croupy cough. Mrs. H. H. Givan and Mrs. J. J. Cave, both of Ozark, have found, in common with many other Missouri mothers, that a jar of VAPORUB in the house in- sures a good night’s sleep. VAPORUB is the external treat- ment for all forms of croup or cold troubles, introduced here from the South last winter. It is in salve form and you just rub it over the throat and chest, covering with a warm flannel cloth. The body warmth re- leases antiseptic vapors that are in- haled with each breath, loosening the phlegm, and, in addition, Vick's is absorbed through and stimulates the skin, relieving the tightness and soreness. Croup is usually relieved jin fifteen minutes and a good appli- f Ozurk Mothers Used to Be Bed at Night cation at night will, in almost every Case, prevent a night attack. But let Mrs. Givan speak for her- self. She writes “I have used Vick’s VAPORUB on my little . girl for croup,.! rubbed it on her chest and throat and it is just splendid, and I wasn't afraid to go to bed at night.” Mrs. Cave says: “I find VAPORUB the best thing I have ever used for colds, sore throat, croup and all kinds of skin troubles for children. I could not do without it now, as it eaves calling a doctor.” The penetrative quality of Vick’s makes it excellent also for inflam, mations of the skin, such as burns, bruises, itchings, piles and muscular soreness. In these cases, particularly in cases of burns it seems to draw out the inflammation and has a de- lightfully cceling effect. Three sizes. 25c, 50c or $1.00. The Vick Chemica} Company, Greensboro, N.

Stocks, bonds, deeds of trust, etc., escape * ‘ cS _..eorporation pays an income tax and just taxation because the owners will not go to the city hall and list them in their returns. Own- ers of stocks claim, so their mpt. The income tax in most cases about 1 per cent, while the real estate r pays 2.35 per cent. The city assesses his ‘veal estate and he is unable to manipulate fig- ures like the corporation attorney that generally makes or directs the making of a tax re- «terns. The real estate owner with a deed of trust on his property pays taxes on his equity and also pays taxes on the deed of trust owned by someone else. This is unjust. In other states the réal estate owner pays taxes on the equity only. Why “not so in Missouri? Most of the schemes to raise additional revenue to make up the deficit in the State’s finances will fail and then the only resort will be to increase taxes on real estate in the big cities. Let them ‘go after the rich man and insist he list his wealth at the City Assessor's office and pay his just share of the taxes. The real estate owner not only pays 2.35 per cent on 70 per cent of valuation, but, in addition, must pay all sorts of special tax bills for streets, alleyp, sewers, etc. The real estate owner's condition is a desperate one and he should not pay more taxes. He cannot keep puis head above water now. Ww. C. WEBER. Muensterberg’s Ghost. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As spirits are often returning and professing to be what they are not, a facetious shade may have pretended to be Muensterberg.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, TUESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 2, 1917. ABOLISHING THE VOTE MARKET. | The new bill for the extirpation of corrupt practices: in elections is drastic, almost savage, in its provisions, but the situation it is designed to meet demands heroic remedies. Its most interesting feature, perhaps, is one. limiting to $5000 the amount of the contribution from any one individual or source. How this pro- vision alone would be sufficient to effect a large reduction in the swollen campaign funds of the Republican campaign contributors. However, a further limit makes it illegal for any national committee to receive or expend a sum in excess of one and one-half cents for each person in the total population of the United States. On the basis of the present number of inhab-? itants this would give each national committee a maximum of about $1,500,000. Had it been in effect in the past campaign, the Republicans would have been compelled to content themselves with a round million less than they actually laid out and probably there would be no present de- mand for an inquiry as to the improper financial influence in the election. A radical provision of the bill deals with news- paper publicity. The clause prohibiting news- papers from discriminating among parties in the acceptance of political advertisements—requiring them, {f they accept any advertisements of the sort, to accept all of unobjectionable language that may be offered—is in accord with the best standards of present-day journalism. But this is a matter that should not be controlled by law. There are other provisions of question- able wisdom. One would make it unlawful for @ newspaper, except under arbitrarily prescribed and perhaps irksome conditions, to avail itself of the judgment on political problems of experts not regularly employed on its staff. The penalty for offending néWwspapers is suspen- sion for 30 days from the privileges of the mails. How such a power placed in the hands of postal officials of perhaps stron rtisan views might be abused ifs pte gl For an uninten- tional or perhaps only technical violation of the bill on the part of a subordinate employe in a newspaper office, a newspaper’s circulation might be restricted to such part of the public as was not reached through the mails. Powerfu] journals of public opinion, defending public rights and prerogatives with such energy as to make themselves obnoxious to administra- tion agents and sympathizers might, at the very height of a campaign, find their facilities of wholesome publicity curtailed until after election. The passing of the party organ and the higher plane on which the political discussions of the press are now conducted may be believed to ren- der such detailed provision in the management of Several states now have corrupt practices acts differing widely in their provisions. Many states have no act of the sort. Candidates for the Sen- ate and the House have in some states a latitude in expenditure not accorded colleagues in other states. One of the merits of the proposed pro-, fected Federal law is that it standardizes all re- quirements on the gubject and places all candi- dates on the same footing. = = % i, a The new Emperor was crowned in the uniform of a Field Marshal and no doves flew into the church. 4 — — = — a POLICEMEN AS HEALTH OFFICERS. Dr. Woods Hutchinson foresees the day when, in the cities and towns, the patrolman will be, ex- officio, a health officer; or we might call it pseudo health monitor for every family on his beat. He hopes for the time when the patré]men will “know, or know something about, every family in theip charge, so as to know just what ones need watch- ing, who need an occasional warning, and who are of the overwhelming majority that can be trusted to take care of themselves.” When that happy time comes, the patrolman is expected to visit every family on the day it moves into the precinct and give each member full in- structions on the health laws and on the penalties for infringing them. After that, he is to keep a careful watch on the family to see that they obey the law. It’s not such a bad fdea, if, as Dr. Hutchinson points out, the policeman fs not expected to threat- en, but te co-operate with the family, unless they defy him, tn which case “he resorts to sterner methods.” In a tenement family, where no tele- phone was available, the patrolman could be sent for a doctor when little Willie fell sick. And as dirt fosters disease germs, in a flat where the mother was too sick to clean up and the father too tired with long hours of labor, the patrolman could take a mop and pail and oust the microbes with the dirt. Thus, as Dr. Hutchinson says, will science and humanity take the place of original sin. A courtship room is to pe added to the Chicago Court of Domestic Relations. An ideal place for one to press his suit! DIMINISHING SALOONS. : From the Excise Commissioner's office comes the announcement that 84 fewer saloons were li- censed in St. Louis in November than were li- censed at the beginning of last year. A further decrease of 100 is expected for the next six-months term, leaving a total for the city of 2088. The only explanation offered is that there is not business enough for all of them. That be- comes self-evident upon even a superficial exam- ination of the facts. There is at present about one saloon for every 400 people in the city. Deduct- ing women, children and nondrinkers, this leaves about one saloon to every 100 men, of whom only a small proportion buys liquor in considerable : quantities. These few do not spend enough to papers unnecessary. ™ jority are barely able to get a living. Economic pressure is forcing the weaker ones out of busi- ness. There is a lesson in this for the liquor men, par- ticularly since their business is already on the de- fensive, struggling for its very existence. Most of their troubles have come through efforts to force the trade beyond what the traffic will bear. The to get a little extra money to keep him going. There would be no‘ need of this if competition were kept within economic limits. The people of St. Louis have shown by their votes on two occa- sions that they do not want the business abol- ished, but it exists purely on sufferance. Good sense and good policy demand that the brewer, distiller and retailer get together on some plan of limitation that will put their business on a solid | foundation and keep the good will of the public. Patience! Did not the late Prophetess Thebes assure us that peace in Europe would come sud- denly and unexpectedly in or before 1917? ‘Fate has 60 seerte it.” Happy New Year! Street Director Talbert is going to have a card index made of all the reckless drivers in St. Louis. This ought to be a serviceable compilation of data in fixing responsibility for accidents. Supple- mented with a card index roll of honor for care- ful drivers, it might be expected to promote safety on the public streets. Knowledge that Talbert would get ’em on the cards ought to make the careless ones watch out. Still, as a deterrent, it is to be feared that en- rollment in the municipal index expurgatorious will lack the full efficacy of some other and more conventional penalties, say 30 or 60 days in jail. i A Ae i i ae The Hapsburg luck may change with Charles. = = ™ -'_-- . CHICKENS THAT WILL RETURN. The December Grand Jury reports that its work of uncovering election frauds in St. Louis was greatly hampered by the fact that Judge Miller “prematurely” discharged 90 negroes ar- rested on election day and accused of illegal vot- ing, these negroes being alleged criminals. There was no formal arraignment at the bar, and most of the accused were not even brought into court. We have not seen the last of the effects of this unprecedented action, which amounted to a de- nial of justice. At coming elections men in- clined to commit fraud will be encouraged by the remembrance of the wholesale discharge of near- ly a hundred ‘in the 1916 election. /It will be a case of the return of unwelcome chickens to plague us. ° r= = * rw | Y The big war and the. downtown auto speeding have not stopped for the new year. The 1917 death roll may show up large. = = * rw Ye ‘‘AOTION, ACTION, AOTION!’’ The Parisian press made history during the week of Dec. 10th, all demanding, in one ac- claim, in the name of the French nation, that a dictatorship take the place of the parliamentary military committee. Alfred Capus, editor-in-chief of the Figaro said in substance, that no parliament can successfully carry on a war; and he points to Gallipoli, Servia, Rumania and even to Belgium and the occupied portions of. France herself in confirmation. The fact, he asserts, that at critical moments action had invariably to be submitted first to the military committee of Parliament had caused days’ and weeks’ delays, which in each instance had a damn- ing effect. And he concludes: Let us, during the crisis, veil Liberty and let us have a dictator. Polybe, an associate editor of the same paper writes: Hindenbure’s avowed plan of turning on France as soon as he will be through with Rumania, must not find us handicapped by such a political brake, in sight of a high- handed, single-minded and quick enemy, who knows his mind and carries out his plans without hitch or halt. The -former Minister-President writes in the Petit Parisien: Let us have action, action instead of songs. We have spilled rivers of blood; and what have we accomplished? The Buddhists have prayermilis, we have wishmills. The Temps recalls the action of Fabius, when Rome was hard pressed by Hannibal, in velling the Statue of Liberty on the Forum, while he con- stituted himself dictator; and quotes the English philosopher, Herbert Spencer, as likening state activity towards the outside to the thousand body activities governed by only one head. The Gaulois intimates that the military commit- tee in Paris may be guilty of much useless blood- shedding, and ‘“‘ventures to say” that, had it not been for them, the Germans would in all proba- bility have been pushed back to the Rhine after the battle of the Marne; that Servia would have been spared, Bulgaria would never have entered the war, and Rumania would have entered at a more propitious time. Henotaux, in a signed article in Humanite says: Germany is no more guided, tn a military sense, by the Kaiser or the Crown Prince, who now play the roles of appreciative on- lookers—Von Hindenburg is dictator. After the occupation of Poland, the Czar of. Russia assumed personal command of his armies; but he was compelled since to make way for @ic- tator Trepoff, to whom the nation leoks for relief. Even England's military machinery has practically been narrowed down to a one-man dictatorship under Lioyd-George. But tn France we stfll have two heads and one hand, instead of having twe hands and one head. The Matin concludes its leading article on this subject with the words: Today we know no “civil rights"—only “war rights.” Let the civil grandmas sleep over their tea behind the curtain, while we men do. The same idea is expressed by the Echo de Paris which says: Let parliament hide its face until all is over. L'Intransigeant refers to the “absolute dictator- ship” of Genera! Grant, and to the refusal of Na- poleon to submit to interference from the Conven- tion. This © of the press has been irresis- tible, and Aristide Briand has been given practi- cally dictatorial powers.

OCRATES: It is my custom, as you know, to ~ go to the Agora on New Year night and say something of the way in which we should think. New Year’s does create a pause in our lives which lends itself to this sort of thing, and whether we seriously believe in its efficacy or not, we must admit that it is a time in which we stand upon an height and look off. It has appealed to me in that way through much of my life, and there is nothing I have more enjoyed than standing upon that height and.trying to see what there was to be seen. Glaucon:' It is a rather nice point, I think, and I am sorry that we younger men were so much en- grossed with the frivolities of life in the New Year season that we were not there to hear you. Socrates: I am sorry, too, Glaucon. I wish that we might have more wits than wine at New Year's, though no true philosopher quarrels with the time in which he lives. I once ventured to say to Diogenes that as between my soapbox and his tub, which rather fairly symbolized, I thought, our separate careers, there was not much of a debate. However, as to last night: There was a much larger crowd than usual, and I attributed it to the serious frame of mind into which we have been plunged by the war. The war has made us think of the way in which we are going, ani I am not sure that in the end it is to be judged as having been wholly bad. We cannot always see such things at the time they are actually happening in their true relation to human progress, any more than we can guess while we live what men shall say of us in the end. At any rate, what I said last night was that it quite becomes us as thinking men at this time to inquire into what we may expect. The war is not an entertainment from which we are to turn when the curtain falls without serious thought of its consequences to ourselves, I think we are all convinced that our isolation from world affairs is forever gone. We have become too rich and too powerful. Our responsibility to civilization has become too great. Some of the brightest minds we have are telling us this, and we cannot ignore it. It is quite true that the seas hedge us about, and that it was by no fault of ours that Europe chose to de- stroy herself. Nevertheless, we cannot, as the chief beneficiaries of that catastrophe, and as the only great power which escaped it, continue to go in the way we have been going. We must expect that we shall be called upon in three great respects. First, to help bring about peace. Second, to succor Europe in her Third, to take the initiative in mak- ing impossiDle a recurrence of any such conflict as that now going on. In the first respect we are prob- ably doing at this time everything that could be done. Burope is not going to let us end the war until she has set her house in order, any more than we would have let Europe end our Civil War before we had settled the issue it involved. In the second respect we are remiss. Probably that is because our great op- portunity is not to come until the war.ends.

The Mans perfect ideal wife By NIXOLA GREELEY-SMITH. T is not “the other woman.” | It is not “the mother-in-law.”’ It is not the high cost of living, the extravagance of wives, nor even the self-indulgence of husband that makes the unhappy home. At least, Miss Tiera Farrow, Kansas City’s first woman--Divorce Proctor, be- lieves that none of the scarecrows Il have enumerated has half so much to do with frightening away the bluebird of happiness as the false, romantic ideals of husbands and wives. ‘Because girls dream of movie heroes with wavy hair and caressing eyes as mates,” said Miss Farrow, ‘‘they decide marriage is a failure when their plumb- er or carpenter husbands prove com- monplace. “Because her ideal of married life, born of novel reading, as a rose garden of love, does not come true, the young wife grows discontented and fails to make a success of her job as home- maker. Of course, the fault Is not all with the woman,’” Miss Farrow conced- cd, “In perhaps the greatest number af unsuccessful marriages, the men are to blame, but there would be many more with less romantic ideas.’’ Now, there is a great deal of wisdom in these words of the woman Divorce —_ it look abundant.—ADV. d by, the weight of centuries he leans bn his hoe and gazes on the ground, emptiness. of ages in his fac ‘g \7Z ¢, 2 fon his back the burden of the world. iq ‘ de hi dead t t . 4d : ng that Grieves HOt and that maven Heatherbloom opes, 4 ° id and stunned, a brother to the ox?

But such obsessions ure rare, and the ordinary marriage be: tween ordinary souls is, as Miss Far- row suggests, greatly benefited by an infusion of common sense. ‘Any one who has analyzed the dreams of young men realizes that the ideal woman is an exquisite, exotic creature, whose sole delight and relaxation is in darning her husbands socks or singing the baby to sleep; in other .words, that the perfect wife is a judicious combi- nation of Cleopatra and a little brown hen. It is the scarcity of this delect- able blend which has filled the world with chivalrous men, who are pretend- ing that little browns hens are Cleo- patras or unbappy creatures -who spend their lives waiting for their daomesti- cated sirens to cluck—something no Cleo- patra has ever been known to do. The American woman’s ideal husband, on the other hand, is a sort of Romeo of the ticker, »who keeps one eye ever on the market and the other on the girl. But the millionaires of the heart seldom possess bank accounts. They never have a geod head for business, So the young woman bent on discov- ering financial genius under a shock of Romeo curls is very likely to see her little house of romance in ruins in a year or so, unless she has such abso- lute faith in her man that all the facts in the world won't make a dent in it— quite the best state of mipd for her to have, since faith that can be dented by facts does not amount to much, The Newer Sort of Romance as False as the Old. Novels which left the enchanted pair at the altar to live happily ever after have had mudéh to do with the false, romantic ideals of young men and wom- én deplored by the Divorce Proctor of Kansas City. On the other hand, the newer sort, wherein the heroine, after ‘having her heart and soul crushed in the crucible of marriage, elopes to China and per: retual bliss with her husband's best friend, are quite as false. What is the point of the novelist’s revolt against marriage if it must always wind up in another marriage? And what does defi- ance of the law amount to if in the end one must invoke for one’s own protec- decide you don't believe in marriage mainly to get married again? All the writers, like Wells and Hewlett, in his later manner, have done is to remove the false halo from the first marriage ana wreathe it around the head of the second, | No one that I know of has told the truth except W. L. George in “The Second Blooming.” In that memorable novel, Grace, the heroine, decides not to leave her husband for the new man who has stormed her senses. After all, she reasons, in a few years it would be the same thing, and why exchange one respectability for another respectgbility ? The best view any woman not mar- ried to a scoundrel can take of her marriage is that whatever its shortcom- ings it is quite as good as any other she would be likely to make; that the ee Green for the Costume. Green, so long neglected as a fash- lonable color. for the costume, is now being considerably used. The greens seen are of the dark and warm shad- ings, somewhate like the sap green or the lighter tones of the Russian green. The trimmings used with these greens are red, citron, buff and black. Ladies, Try This. % abs ladies from Scotland were hold- ing a stairhead confab one. morn- ing on the troubles of life, and husbands in narticular. “I dinna wonder at some pair wives having to help themselves out of their husbands’ trouser-pockets,"’ remarked the one. I “canna say I like them understand ways myself,’ responded the second matron. ‘I jist turn ma man’s breeches doonside. up and help masel’ off the , Z| carpet." e, J : Happiness in marriage exists} tures wh. don’t mind being mistaken | truly grand passions need never be af | tion the very law one has defied, ani] oye avavy hair Rom €o- f° capitalist 3 | - —— = man she knows all about is a more de- sirable companion than the man she knows nothing about, and that. divorce has one thing in common with hair dye- ing and face massage—once you begin it you are pretty likely to be compelled to keep it up. , Men at best are merely the raw ma- terial of husbands, and almost any man makes a good husband with proper treatment. Most men get it, too. Men are, in the main, more. happy in mar- riage than women are, because they ex- pect less and they get more from it than women do. By the time a man has found out that the critic on his hearth, to borrow Stevenson’s phrase, has not the loveli- ness and lure of the daughter of the Ptolemies, he has reflected that Cleo patra was not a respectable woman, anyhow, and that on the whole it is bet- ter to have a little brown hen around the house who never gets on his nerves cr compromises his dignity by philan-. dering. But a woman never quite re- covers from the Romeo dream. And in her heart she never ceases to ask. of the middle-aged gentleman for whom she pours a third cup of coffee every morning: “Oh, Romeo, Romeo, where- fore are thou NOT Romeo?’ za .

Skepticism over the practical result of efforts to end the war was naturally increased in the financial com- munity as elsewhere by the allies’ note, What appeared today was, at any rate, a belief that the movement toward ace, should it persist in the face of the atest rebuff, must be slow enough to permit some sort of readjustment in American industry and finance before the end is reached.

Market Is Firm. “Moderate activity prevailed on the Stock Exchange throughout the day, an prices made a substantial recovery from: the final figures of last week. In the copper and steel shares and in the war stocks advances of 3 or 4 points occurred. The market was steady and orderly, with few of those violent changes which had marked the course of business in the ex- citement and uncertainty of last month. Railway shares, as a class, were little changed. Foreign bonds on the Exchange were actively dealt in, though their prices, in the main, showed no important varia- tions from those of last Friday. With a few exceptions, as in the case of the Mercantile Marine shares, the market ape its strength up to the clos- ng “Reports of railroad earnings in No- vember, a number of which were pub- lished today, were chiefly interesting be- cause of general decreases revealed in net earnings, as compared with the same month in 1915. An exception Oc- curred in the case of several roads tra- versing Southern territory, while the de- Cline was ‘heaviest in the line8S which serve the industrial regions of the East and Middle West. “In part, this was undoubtedly due to the congestion and other difficulties un- der which the Eastern roads especially have labored; but comparison is made with a month of exceptional earninga, which tends to obscure the excellent re- sults actually attained. Moreover, in arriving at net earnings, the roads are being obliged constantly to increase their maintenance charges of varjous sorts. Gross income for November, thus far reported, shows general, though not large increases.”’ LATEST LIVESTOCK NEWS NATIONAL STOCKYARDS, Ill., Jan. 2.— Cattle 5500, including 300 southerns; pereet Native bee steers, 7.50€ rong | _yearl ri steers and i helfers, 50; eee and feeders, } VL calves, $6.00@12.25; Texa 50@8; prime Southern beef bel $84 y: beef cows and fora, 81.5 sa eshde 50; prime * mixed, : heavy, pigs, $7.75@ cow oh $5. $10,054 10. 45; x S@ 10. ori ghee § 00: : es, 10@ 11.65: ready: ered OF ‘Livestock Elsewhere.

P.A. WALKER ITTLE HANS was a poor boy, who grew up alone, and if he had a mother and father he did not know anything about them, for the first thing he could remember was living all alone in a hut in a forest. One day he was out in the forest look- ing for berries, when he saw a house in the distance with smoke coming from the chimney. “There is something to eat in that house,’’ said Hans to himeelf, ‘‘else there would be no smoke,” so off he ran to the house and knocked at the door. But after knocking and knocking, no one came, and Hans pushed the door open, for it was unlatched, and looked in. On the stove there was a kettle, and the steam which came from it gave forth an odor which made Hans’ mouth water with a desire to taste the con- tents. Hans stepped into the room and waited to eee if anyone came, but all was still, excepting the crackling of the fire and bubbling of the soup in the kettle. ans took a step nearer the stove and stened, but no sound came to his t that which he heard before. walked to the stove and looked the boiling pot. “Hum, hum,” he eep breaths. * said Hans, looking & spoon, which he found and into the kettle bringing up a 8 delet li of sou i Hans and the Ogre—Part I. “My, that is good! I will take just one more taste,’’ he said. “I could taste it better if it were not so hot,’’ said Hans, so he moved thie kettle off the stove and waited for it to cool. There was no door in the room but that by which he had entered, and as no one came in when the soup was cool Hans tasted it again. “It is very good soup,” said Hans; ‘I will take just one more taste!”’ When he had taken another taste he could not resist another and another, and in a little while he was at the bot- tom of the kettle and all the soup was gone. Hans was a little frightened now, for he had not intended to eat all, and he knew he should not have eaten any of it, for it did not belong to him, but poor little Hane had been hungry all his ite and never before had he had enough food at one time to satisfy his appetite. So when the soup was gone he thought he better go before someone came and caught him there. He was just going out the door when something took him by the shoulder and Hans was shaken so his teeth rattled fn hie meuth. “What do you mean by eating all my soup; you little wretch,” said a gruff voice. “I have a good mind to put you into the pot and boil you alive.” Poor little Hans was frightened nearly out of his wits, but he managed to look around to see what had grabbed him. If he was frightened before, he was more frightened now, for he saw a crea- ture with three ears looking at him with three pairs of eyes and talking to him with three mouths and tongues. Hans expected to see three pairs of hands, but there were only two hands, though from the shaking they gave him Hans was very glad there were no more, One head had no hair at all and another had hair like a dog all over the face as well as the head, and on top were a pair of horns. The third head had long hair which fell over the shoulders of the queer-looking creature which had Hans in his grasp. Shaking all threé heads at once, the Strange creature shook Hans again and asked him what he meant by coming into his house and eating his soup. Hans looked up to answer him and then he saw where the creature had come from so unexpectedly and sudden- ly. There was a hole in the cefling and Hans saw a ladder had been let down close beside the creature that had cap- tured him, “I didn’t see anyone and I was hun- gry.” answered Hans. “I am sorry I ate your soup and I will do anything you ask to repay you for what I ate.’’ “You will repay me,’ laughed the Ogre, for that was what it was, “why you are too small to do anything, but as you,seem to be willing to try I wil! give you a task, and if you fail, into the pot you go. You need not think you can escape, for I can overtake you, no matter how far or how fast you may run.” Then for the first time Hans looked at the Ogre’s feet and found he had six feet—two for each head. The Ogre was not very tall. of course, he was taller than Hans very much, but not as tall as you would have expected one with three heads and six feet to be. Hans told him he would do anything he asked if he would Only spare his ** life, so the Ogre told him he wanted some wood for his winter supply, and that there was a hundred trees that he wanted cut down and sawed into logs for his stove. Hans felt that a hundred trees were a great many, but when the Ogre told him he was to start in at once and if it was not all finished by the next morn- ing he should make soup of him, Hans knew he might as well jump into the i ectendtatidatettmenenetitneeienntiatmenenaiiamadaiiemamned pot at once. However, the Ogre told him to run along and gave him a hatchet to work, with, and after pointing out the trees, left Hans and went back to his home. Tomorrow I will tell you how Hans escaped.
