ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH F SENATE INDORSES | ESIDENT’S PEACE MOVE IN PART Passes Resolution Approving Request for Belligerents to State Terms. 10 REPUBLICANS VOTE YES World Peace Guarantee Pro- posal Not Indorsed After Spirited Debate. WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.—After three days of spirited debate touching inter- national relations of the United States, the Senate has adopted a _ resolution stating ‘‘that the Senate approves and strongly indorses the request by the President in the diplomatic notes of Dec. 18 to the nations now engaged in war, that those nations state the terms upon which peace might be discussed.” The resolution was approved last night hy a vote of 48 to 17, 10 Republicans joining the majority. It was offered by Senator Jones, Republican, as a substi- tute for the original resolution of Sen- ator Hitchcock, which Republican Sen- ators contended carried indorsement of the entire note. Senator Martine of New Jersey was the only Democrat to ,ote in the negative. Discussion of the subject nad reached a climax during the day with a sensa- tiona]) declaration by Senator Lewis, chief spokesman for tne Democrats, re- plying to Repubiican criticism of the President's course. Without referring directly to the submarine controversy, the Senator said the United States could not keep out of tne war if it contin- ued, and that America would not again necept misconception of orders or Zeal of an officer as an excuse for an injury to a citizen or property. World Peace Clause Opposed. The chief objection urged avainst the criginai resolution offered by Senator Hitchcock was that it would indorse the President's offer to join in a movement to guarantee world peace and his dec- jaration of the interest of the United States in small nations. Progressive Republicans joined Senator Lodge and others in this contention. Senator Borah, attacking the Hitch- cock resolution, said that in his judg- ment the United States by approval of the President's note would bind itself in the future with European nations to protect the integrity and security of smaller European nations and that if this meant anything at all, it meant that the army and navy of this na- tion must be at the disposal of anv world combination the war's end might see to give this protection. FORMER ST. LOUISAN DIES FROM Q1-STORY FALL IN PITTSBURG lLincolm M. Stearns, 42, Was Finishing Cabinet Case and Stood in Win- dow, When Foot Slipped. Lincoln M. Stearns, 42 vears old, for- merly of St. Louis, died vesterday at the Allegheny Geneyai Hospital, Pittsburg, Pa., from injuries suffered the night before in a fall of 21. stories from a window of the Oliver Building in that city. His body will arrive here tonight for burial. A Pittsburg dispatch Stearns stood on a window sill in his office, on the Twenty-second floor of the building, to finish work on the top of a cabinet case, when his foot slipped and he fell.

Since his elopement with Miss Bouck he has con- tinued to live at the famiiy home and his bride has remained on the s‘age. His father was Edward Butler Jr. Mies Bouck’'s stage name was Mildred Lyle. Miss Butler said her brother late in June went to Chicago, telling members of his family that Miss Douck was ill and had sent for him. Butler today said he first met Miss Bouck four years ago, when he was fullback on the Christian Brothers Col- lege football team and she was a stu- dent at Central High School. He said that he fell in love with her at sight, and had visited her regularly ever since. They became engaged 18 months ago, he in Elgin last June, to get married. He said he spent three months traveling with the show with which she is con- nected, acting as treasurer of the com- pany. From Chicago Butler went to Elgin, Ii!., where they were married. A short time before the marriage she had given up her place in the Park Theater chorus. A month ago the bride appeared] here in a musical comedy sketch at the Grand Opera House. The Butler family then was let in on the secret of the marriage. She also has appeared in cabarets in cafes. Young Butler will receive tne income on his $200,000 inheritance until he is 30 years old, when the principal will come into his possession. DID NOT ADVISE GRAND JURY Said Nothing About Howe Into Conference. “A headline in the Post-Dispatch yes- stating that ‘grand jurors say Howe on advice of Beer,” was erroneous. The grand iury state- ment, given out by Ben W. Dalzell, foreman, stated that the grand jurors asked Assistant Circuit Attorney Baer if there would be any objection to bold- ing informal conferences duvuring the holidays. Baer replied that ‘here would not be, according to the statement, if the mectings were entirely informal, and no one who appeared before the body was sworn.

LONDON, Jan. 6.—The British Govern- ment still is awaiting advices from the French Government concerning the pub- lication of the entente reply to President Wilson’s peace note, the Associated Press learned at the Foreign Office. It now is believed the reply will not be made public before Monday. The Berlin newspapers, Lokal An- zeiger and Vossische Zeitung, as quoted by the Copenhagen corres- pondent of the Exchange Telegraph Co., state that any peace terms of the central Powers which may have been placed in the hands of President Wil- son did not come from official sources; furthermore, the newspapers state, it is not the intention to give such terms to the President. Ger- many, they say, is ready to lay her terms on the table of a peace confer- ence, but will not make § President Wilson her fonfidant in any such manner as was indicated by the re- cent statement attributed to Count Julius Andrassy, former Hungarian Premier, and leader of the opposi- tion.

DEMOCRACY TO BE | RULE, IF HE HEADS BML, SAYS DAVIS} Letter to Members Says He Be- lieves All Should Help Direct Affairs of League. CLOSE RACE WITH CURLEE Conservative Element Declared to Have Hampered Activities of Organization. J. Lionberger Davis, candidate {for president of the Business Men's League, today sent to members of the league a letter in which he charged the organiza- tion has been dominated by 2 small body of men who fear democracy believe progress can be made only by the concerted action of the few, and who have directed the league along lines which they believed were f9r the best interests of themselves ani the city. The election will be held Jan. 16. Davis declared his platform was that the league should be controlled by al. of its members for the benefit of the whola community and not by a few for their private advantage. The contest between Davis, who de- clares he is the candidate of the pro- gressive element of the league, and J. R. Curlee, vice president of the Carleton Dry Goods Co., who, he says, is backed by the reactionaries, has become spirit- ed. Both Davis and Curlee are/support- ed by strong factions of the organization and members say it is impossible, at this time, to determine who will be the winner. Feared Too Much Democracy. There never before has been a contest over the election cf a president of the leatue, the recommendations of the Nominating Committee always having been accepted. Davis, who is vice pres- ident of the St. Louis Union Bank, and also a lawyer, has been active in civic work for several years. After he was chosen by three of the four members of the Nominating Committee, Curlee was named by petition of members who feared Davis might inject too much civic and democracy into the organiza- tion. In his letter today Davis states that for several years many members have believed the league should increase its membership, widen the scope of its ac- tivities, reduce its dues and that the in- terest of every member should . be aroused t> united effort on industrial and commercial problems of the city. To arouse such interest, he declared, it was necessary to give each member a voice in deciding its policies. He assert- «di that St. Louis has not been progress- ing in a business way as rapidly as some of its aggressive rivals. “Within the league,’ the letter con- tinues, ‘there has been a group cf those who fear democracy; who feel that rrogress can be made only by the con- certed action of the few, and who have largely controlled and dominated the policies of the league for the last few years along lines which they believed were for the best interests of them- selves and of the city. What Other Cities Have Done. ‘Their policies have been reactionary. They have fought every effort to democratize the League and many ef- forts on the part of other members of the league to co-operate with other groups of the city in matters affecting the general prosperity of the commun- ity. A large group of members felt that such a policy was a mistake. They knew what other cities were accomplish- ing through their Chambers of Com- merce. They felt that the League should become more democratic, more aggres- sive, and that its machinery should be perfected. Davis then sets forth the principal planks of his platform, which are that the League should be controlled by all of its members for the benefit of the entire community, and not by the few for their own benefit; that the League should co-operate with public officials and other groups to promote industrial and commercial growth; that more at- tention should be paid to permanent im- riovements, and that every member of the Teague should be advised of its activities and receive a financial state- ment showing how its money is ex- pended. No Power to Name Secretary. With reference to the report in cir- that Davis, if elected presi- , and culation retary’ of the Civic League, to succeed William Flewellyn Saunders as secre- tary and manager of the Business Men's League, Davis stated in the letter that as president he would have no power to make such appointments, as all ap- pointments are made by the Executive Committee. In this matter, he said, he believed that the policies and ma- chinery of the league should be con- trolled by its own members, and that there should be no dictation by anv man or small group of members. The main issue in the contest, Davis asserts, is: ‘‘Shall the league be con- trolled by its members and not by a few”? All legislative powers are in the Executive Committee and important matters of policy should be referred to the whole membership.” ee a ee dent, would appoint Roger Baldwin, sec. | IMAN SHOT AFTER WINEROOM FIGHT Joseph Stone Wounded by Po- liceman in Chase in Street After.

He found Stone beating Charles McKinney of 23 South Tenth street, a waiter. The policeman arrested Stone and took him outside and rapped for assistance. Stone broke and ran north. The police- man pursued him and called on him to halt and threw his night stick at him, hitting him in the back. Stone staggered, but kept on. The policeman fired three shots in. the air and as Stone turned into the alley between Chestnut and Pine streets, the policeman fired at him. Stone cried: ‘‘Don’t shoot any more; I’m hit.” He stopped and came back. Stone was sent to the hospital and the wineroom was raided. McKinney, Mrs. Meyer, Dollie Diamond and Lucille Soarks of 1125 Chestnut street were ar- rested. The trouble was over the Dia- mond woman. Stone, according to the witnesses, “got fresh’’ with her and McKinney ordered him to ‘‘cut it out,’’ and Stone attacked him. McKinney and the women are held as witnesses.

QUERETARO, Jan. 6.—Gen. Carranza] last night sent a message to the Mexi- can Commissioners attending the Mexi- can-American conference informing them it was impossible for him to rati- fy the proposed protocol as it limited the conditions regarding the with- drawal of American troops from Mex- ico. He said that the clause dealing with this matter would have to be eliminated or amended as it was not sufficiently clear and gave a chance of difficulties which might arise from the withdrawal of the troops or the suspension of their withdrawal. The message says that only the im- mediate recall of the American forces can be accepted and that as soon as their withdrawal is begun the final ratification of the protocol can be pro- cee@ed with. After vertification of the retirement of the American soldiers, the message concludes, the Mexican commissioners c.n discuss other mat- ters as specified in their credentials. FAMOUS “CURE” SPRING DIES “Lourdes of Wales” Fails to Supply for First Time. LONDON, Jan. 6.—Yesterday was an unlucky Friday in the district of Hol- well, Flintshire, Wales. St. Winifred's Well, on which mills depended for water, ceased to flow. The incident has caused consternation in Holwell and will be felt through other Roman Catholic circles. The flow was normally over 2,000 gallons per minute and has been so from time immemorial. The stream served many mills along its banks, and the spring has been cele- brated for miraculous cures that for hundreds of years are alleged to have followed bathing in the waters of ‘“‘The Lourdes of Wales.’ Cures are said to have been effected within recent years.

A youth standing at Fifteenth and Market streets at 10:30 o'clock last night and peering into a small jewelry box attracted the attention of detectives. They took the box from him and found it contained what appeared to be about 50 small unstrung pearls. The youth, who said he was Hugh M. Easley, 19 years old, of Memphis, Tenn., asserted the pearis belonged to Henr, M. Neighbors, 25 vears old, also of Memphis, and ted the detectives to a room in the Ritz Hotel, Eighteenth and Market streets, which he and Neighbors shared with their brothers; Robert Has- ley, 22, and Rice Neighbors, 21 Henry Neighbors had packed’ = two grips and was about to start for De- troit, he said. The grips were found to contain railroad passes, postage stamps and lead pencils worth about $29, ac- cording to the police. The pearis were estimated by the police to be also worth $200, but Neighbors said he had been unable to persuade anyone to buy them. Henry Neighbors confessed that for the last two weeks he had been robbing offices in St. Louis o which he gained access as a Solicitor for a city directory company. In the Syndicate Trust Buiid- ing, he said, he stole passes and keys from the Vandalia Railroad office. From the Louisville & Nashville offices in the Railway Exchange Building he took three Winona Oil Co. stock certificates, a mileage book and postage stamps, and at the Southern Railway offices he stole a check for $21 which he was unable to cash. He said that he sometimes entered the offices in the time between their closing and the arrival of the janitor, for whom the doors were left unlocked. Neighbors said that under a court or- der he was compelled to pay % a week to his wife, from whom he is separated, for the support of their 15-months-old boy, that he was never able to make more than $12 a week, and that the re- mainder was not enough for him to live on.

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, SATURDAY EVENING; JANUARY 6, 191 | A JOBLESS FOLDER AND OTHERS. There was a fight over the question o* appoint- ing a folder for the House of Representatives at jefferson City. The pro-folder forces won. The argument in favor of the appointment of a folder was irresistible. There is nothing for an official folder to do except draw pay. The fold- er’s job was abolished years ago when the type- writer took the place of the pen in drafting bills. But the folder’s office and pay have never ceased. The folder gets $4 a day and that is the reason for the existence of the folder’s jobless office. The official-folder with $4 a day pay and no job is a symbol of the payroll of the State Legis- lature. It is typical of the ‘‘jobs’’ provided for many of the employes of the Legislature. The employes of the Senate and House are not provided because they are needed by the Legis- lators to do the work for which they were elected. The list is not graded according to needs, but according to wants. The legislators want patron- age. They want places sons, daughters, nephews, nieces, supporters and relatives of sup- porters. Therefore, the State Treasury is bur- dened with the pay of useless employes. The “spoils” in the force of employes is indi- cated by the apportionment of appointments. In the Senate each Democratic Senator names five clerks and one stenographer; each Republican Senator names one stenographer. In the House each Democratic Representative names one clerk and the Democrats name the lion’s share of 12 stenographers, 12 pages and 39 other employes. In both branches of the Legislature about 335 employes were provided at the beginning. This in previous years has been only a beginning. Addi- tions have been made when spoils hunger prompt- ed and the eyes of the people were diverted to other things. The State is bankrupt. The Treasury deficit of a million and a half. The principal la- bor of the Legislature is to proyide revenue by taxing the people to meet the deficit and supply the needs of the State. One of its labors is to organize economies in management so that the revenues may be applied solely to useful pur- for has a poses. The Legisiature begins by organizing a force in excess of its needs, topped by a folder with noth- ing to do. If the State had plenty of money this would be disgraceful extravagance. With a bank- rupt treasury it is shameless jobbery. The Legislature, charged with the duty of meet- ing a deficit and organizing economy, starts its work by organizing extravagance to increase the deficit. It is a model of mismanagement. We call special attention to this provision for an admittedly excessive force of legislative em- ployes to inform the people of Missouri concern- ing the cost of the partisan spoils system which debauches officials, packs pay rolls, empties the treasury, increases taxes and makes for ineffi- ciency in all departments. The State's business is not run for the benefit of the State but for the benefit of parties, party leaders and their henchmen.

Our old enemy, the typographical error. forced its way into the United States Senate the other day, and started a commotion in which the senior Senator from Missouri was the seething center. In its account of the upset of the stock market following the so-called “‘leak’’ of President Wil- son's intent to send his latest note to all the warring countries, an Iowa newspaper printed the following remarkable statement: Total sales up to 1 o'clock Dec. 2! approxi- mated 2,000,000 shares, indicating that the full day's trading would probably exceed al! records. Of this amount, United States Sen- ator Stone alone contributed 574,900 shares, Senator Stone arose to a question of personal privilege on Jan. 2, denounced the calumny in general and in detail and extended his wrath to ali calumniators of every rank whatsoever, Sen- ator Cummins arose to testify to the previous good character of the offending newspaper. Sep- ator Borah set the matter right by showing that “United States Senator Stone” had been printed where the writer meant to say “United States Steel.” Senator Stone's anger was appeased and he sat down amid laughter. However, he can call to witness a lot of fellow sufferers who will affirm that a typographical error is no laughing matter. sabi leitailisiibdn An Onarker yawned so widely he couldn't get his mouth shut again for two hours.

However, is something not to be said in the same relation for the republic? A world which has had the French under close observation has paid tributes to their unexpected sieadfasiness in stress, their hopefulness in the face of defeat, their never-surpassed courage and capacity and resourcefulness in the field. But pamong the wartime pictures that wil! particular, repudiators on record, not by temporizing delay and secret suppression. more economical to use oil, oil goes up. There, however, the barons of the potpourri are peculiarly a war product. They have become fab- ulously rich by forestalling the food of the people and selling at a great price to belligerents abroad or to less fortunate brothers at home, who must said uprooted by scornful words and end. as we have impress posterity will be the spectacle of this light- ] hearted people sitting down patiently to link all industrial activities behind the lines into the maximum of military usefulness and make an amazing use of the scanty resources left to them | bv the temporary fortune of war. . ‘German efficiency, which has become a stand- ard ef comparison, has done many wonderful things in the past two years, but with its sum total of wealth in natural material constantly in- creased by the capture of rich territory. French efficiency may set new records in accomplish- ments achieved under handicaps formerly un-| imaginable. — -—¢ ¢-o—___ _—~_-_—_—_—— SMOKING THEMSELVES OUT. Indorsement of the peace note became an issue in the Senate without the request or desire of the President. but has given rise to discussions illumi- nating party motives. Senator Lodge's denunciations of Mr. Wilson’s course represents much more than a personal po- sition. He was supported by Floor Leader Gal- linger of his party, Senator Borah and others. The rest of the Republican Senators were suffi- ciently,in sympathy with what he was doing to co- operate in the three days of obstruction to the resolution of indorsement. Sixteen Republicans voted against the resolution even in its amended form. Therefore, it is pertinent to note the basic reasons Mr. Lodge himself gives for his opposition. It is because, as he says, the President’s note re- flects the present Berlin view. A state paper which reflects a Berlin view, even a Berlin view on the desirability of restoring peace to the world, is to be denounced per se. To leave no uncertainty as to the actual motive for the opposition, Mr. Lodge, veteran member of the Foreign Relations Committee, takes the unprecedented action of de- nouncing the German Ambassador to the United States by name. The campaign is too recent to make necessary a comparison in detail between Republican utter- ances now and the late laborious effort to deccy the German vote. The work of smoking Mr. Hughes out, vain before election, seems to ve hav- ing some success at present through the new frankness of his party coadjutors. As in the past, aiternate criticism of the administration as pro- ally and pro-German continues satisfying evi- dence of its desire for complete neutrality. — — — — a Having taken about all the territory of the Rumanians, the Germans are now -taking all the gayety out of their lives.

The Democratic State platform ‘“unqualifiedly indorsed the wise, efficient and capable adminis- tration of Gov. Major.” However, all Missouri Republicans and most Missouri Democrats, who have been wondering ever since why the indorse- ment was given, may now free their minds of per- plexing uncertainty on the subject.. In his last message to the Legislature, Mr. Major himself assures us that it was just that kind of an admin- istration. He does more. Our penitentiary has so long served as an example pointing to the need of thoroughgoing prison reform that Missourians have been caused deep humiliation. Mr. Major's eulogy of the institution as tbe “best in the re- public’ provides it with a highly gratifying, if vot very useful certificate of character. + i i Those Cleveland young women who carry po- lice whistles to summon help if they are mo- lested on the street, evidently don’t believe that ancient maxim about whistling girls and crowing hens. -_— ¢04¢-—---—-—-- SMASH THE SMOTHERBUND. liberal rules governing the operation of the Legislature are not a matter of caucus decision, party action or division on any issue other than the merit and practicability of the rules them- selves.

ANTWINE tilted against the counter the M keg of nails on which he sat and addressed himself to all those present not wearing their earmuffs indoors. ‘‘T wish Mr. Wilson might sit in this circle some evening,’’ he said. ‘‘I would like to tell him that while he is doing and has done many excellent things, he has still overlooked the necessity that a great country like the United States must be doing some Herculean thing.

That was glorious. ‘‘If Mr. Wilson asked me what we might do now to parallel the performance at Panama, I imagine I would tell him we might build the other canal we are to have in Nicaragua.

PUT ON Cutting Down Bills for Laundry VERY woman complains about im laundry bills and the amount of work on wash day if the laundry is done at home, but seems to think that this is a necessary evil, like as- sessments or something else over which she has no control. She never tries Lo remedy the condition beyond being as careful as possible of her own clothes and cautioning the children about theirs. Two terms are the solution—cotton crepe and seersucker—and, now that i the annual “‘white sales’ are being held it might be a good plan to look into this before buying. If the women’s underwear in use every day, the baby’s rompers, the little ones’ petticoats or bloomers, are made of this cheap and pretty material, wash day will be much easier and you can bid de- fiance to ironing day, for these things require no ironing and if well made are dainty and pretty. Cotton crepe underwear is just as ser- viceable to the woman who “keeps home” as it is to the boarder. If she does her own work she will find it a great blessing to be freed from so much ironing, and if a Washerwoman comes in or the clothes are sent out ot. the laundry the bills will be cut down. Cotton crepe nightdresses can be easily and quickly made in the slip-on- over-the-head style. A very pretty idea, when making a child's or a young girl’s nightdres of this material, is to cut the body of the garment from white crepe and then make a shaped yoke or sailor collar of pink or light biue crepe. These colored crepes launder well and the contrast with the white is attractive. White petticoats are the most dif- ficult and expensive of all undergar- ments to “do up’ properly. One or two petticoats of cotton crepe go far to- ward: solving this difficulty, as they are easy to wash and, like all garments of the sort, require no ironing. They can be trimmed with light weight torchon or Cluny lace, which does not need 5 smoothing with an tron. If warm fater is avaliable it is best to wet the garment with this and thea rub a little naptha soap on each one and let it soak for about half an hour. or until the dirt is thoroughly loosened. Then rub it gently between the hand« and rinse thoroughly in clean water Wring and then pul! the trimming into shape and smooth the lace a little with the fingers, and hang up to dry. When the garments are quite dry they are ready to wear. They should never, uné@er any circumstances, be ironed, as th's process takes all the crinkle out of the crepe and spoils its appearance. — ce a = OO A ee "Jersey cloth made its reappearance in the modern woman’s world of dress jy last spring.

Bake in a slow oven This wonderful library of facts and information is offered in both forms at exceptionally low prices, and on terms which make it easy for any one to own it. However, the enormous popular demand for the “Handy Volume” Issue (of which 75,000 sets were sold in six months) proved that both the price and the convenient size of this set are an important consideration. You should have the Britannica, and we want you to be thoroug hly satisfied with it. Hence we make this proposition: See both forms, com- pare them and then decide. Some of the bindings of the Cambridge Issue are already exhausted. The stock of others is very limited. Of the full green sheepskin, the most popu- lar binding, there are no more sets in stock. This binding can probably never be duplicated, because no more of this beautiful leather is available. Recently, after the usual sources of supply failed, we even sent to Japan, but no more could be had. Of the genuine red morocco, an unusually rich and artistic binding, but 154 sets were in stock at the close of yesterday. Of the beautiful full limp suede, there are only 464 sets left. This luxurious velvety Bindi the books remarkable flexibility; they can ac y be rolled up. Of the half suede, 137 remain in stock; also 115 of the sheep morocco, and 456 green cloth. Cloth is the cheapest of the Cambridge sets. — The beautiful Cambridge Issue (pictured above on the left) is a magnificently printed and bound set of books— 29 volumes printed in large type, on wide-margined pages of the famous India paper. The popular “‘Handy Volume’’ Issue (pictured on the right) is slightly smaller, very convenient to hold. It is printed in clear, though somewhat smaller type, on narrow- margined pages of the same genuine India paper, and sel/s for about 60% less than the Cambridge Issue. You probably know all about this masterly work, the greatest reference library ever published—and have long desired to possessit. Its constant use would make it invaly- able to you. If you have hesitated to buy it because you could not decide which set you wanted—the superb higher- priced Cambridge Issue or the popular “Handy Volume Issue—here is your opportunity. We will send you at our expense, to your home or office, one volume each of the Cambridge and the “Handy Volume” Issue, in any binding you designate. This will give you the privilege of examining their contents and their make-up, and you can find out their relative advantages. All you need do is to fill out and mail the coupon. But you must act immediately. There are not many sets left of either issue, printed on the famous India paper —not enough for all who want to own the new Britannica. tev Bul- eS nate ee € = * ont want a and sweet, “) miles The ry} 7 Be Ty i4 Sime Zrowinge tast has miles of is on three railroads US MOTITER.—Name fer babs 1 New Year's eve just as the ‘Were blowing or wifile evers- bidding good-by to the old year coming the new—Eva.

OME day the writer of ‘purposeful’ S books is going to learn -what the experienced lawyer already knows and that is*.that some times there such a thing as too much proof. Things can be made so black for the offender that the jury naturally sympathizes with him and seeks to excuse him. That is what Mr. Cosmo Hamilton has done in his newest book, “The Sins of the Children.”’ In this work Mr. Hamilton has drawn a father too absorbed in his work and too diffident to look after the moral and spiritual welfare of his two sons and two daughters. Each of the four gets into a scrape, The honest intention is to pillory their neglectful parent. The ac- tual result is to make the reader 80 sorry for him that he almost wishes something dreadful really would happen to these youngsters for being such all- round dunces and for pestering the old man so. For they do pester him dread- fully in the windup, and one of them, the namby-pambiest of the lot, actually tries to kill the old gentleman because, forsooth, the youngster got into trouble from which it is hard to see how the most vigilant of parents could have saved him. Mr. Hamilton has been guilty of an astonishing ignorantio elenchi in the construction of his plot. He very care- fully creates a modern worldly env! ment for the four children and yet de- nies them fundamental knowledge which such an environment must inevitably give them. Here is a Harvard and Ox- ford graduate, for instance, who doesn’t know what every freshman in a divin- ity school knows. Here is a profligate, gambling young member of New York's financial fast set who is uninformed of matters on which any waiter who pours his wine would be delighted to enlight- en him. Here is a modern, worldly-wise young woman with the manners and vocabulary of a burlesque chorus girl and yet remarkably unable to take care of herself in a crisis. And here is a sen- timental young school girl, fed up on Shaw and Wells, who doesn't even dream that fire is a dangerous thing to play with. And then, when these four sophisti- cated innocents get into difficulties, no- body but father is to blame! There is no gainsaying that Mr. Hamilton is on the right track in attributing to the in- difference of parents many of the sad- dest catastrophes of the young, but he has been singularly unsuccessful in making a case in this particular in- stance. His conclusion may be right but his premises are scarcely able to with- stand close scrutiny. One cannot escape the conclusion that the book has been hastily written. It wants the refined polishing which would eliminate literary inelegancies. If there could possibly be greater gaucherie than this sentence, ‘‘His influence was as subtly bad and pernicious as a beau- tifully made cigarette, heavily charged with dope,’’ it must be this other one, “‘Her heart was beating so loudly that it seemed to her someone was whacking @ carpet somewhere with a stick.’’ (Lit- tle, Brown ~« Co.) is “A STRONG MAN’S HOUSE.” TRONG man’s house or weak man’s S house or average man’s house, it is all the same. The house that is divided against itself cannot stand, even a strong man’s house. This strong man's house was divided against itself and it fell. It was the house of the Right Hon. Sir Alfred Horton-Birkett. It was a strong house because he had builded it upon a stanch foundation of sturdy non-conformist principles. There was an imposing superstructure of wealth and social position and political preferment and what the world rates as success. But the strength of the foun- dation was not there. The principles upon which the house had been builded were put aside and a specious philosophy substituted which might have stood the wear and tear and might have passed for genuine if war had not come. War's testing laid bare the strong man’s hypocrisy and his strong house crumbled. Sir Alfred made munitions. He said he made them so that the nations, pre- pared for war, would be preserved in peace. He persuaded himself into be- lieving that he believed that. Then war came and. his doctrine of peace-preser- vation through preparedness was shat- tered, but the need for munitions was greater than ever and the great firm of which he was the head continued to make them and made more of them than ever before and the wealth of Sir Alfred increased by bounds. Unfortunately, in the light of developments, the muni- tions firrn had branches in Germany and in other central territory and these increased their output of munitions for Hngland's enemies, and it came to pass that about as many of Sir Alfred’s shells were used against England as were used in her defense. Sir Alfred had sons who went to the front and were blown to pieces or wers crippled, quite likely by Sir Alfred's Shells. His children, hating war, har- ried him for his part in it and besought him to give up his munitions interests and at last, when his house had fallen asunder from dissension, he agreed and gave it all up and was about to resume direction again of the modest business in which he made his start when a Zep- pelin dropped a bomb, quite I{kely one of the Sir Alfred bombs, and Sir Alfred was blown to pleces. The story is a timely and trenchant protest against the hypocrisy and the machinations of the munitions men who profit by war and the preparatign for war, and presents a picture of war's ef- fects on England which {s unlike any other picture that has come out of the voluminous literature of war's effects. There is none of war's glorification. The author, Francis Neilson, regards himself as holding a brief for the men and wom- en of England who abhor the war in which England is playing a part. There is no lack of the criticism of the Gov- ernment which Britons love to «pro- nounce, If the story is rather $ver. loaded with discussion and argument it is because the author is earnest in his Gesire to score for peace against this | war and all wars.

HE title “One Hundred Cartoons,’’ T by Oscar Cesare, should be called “One Hundred War Cartoons.’’ One hundred of Cesare's cartoons would form a more interesting collection if they were selected from the variety of subjects treated in the daily cartoon, but one hundred cartoons on the Eu- ropean war is almost like a meal with- out salt. However, the publishers should be given a vote of thanks for preserving work of this kind, which otherwise would be lost, because it is so typical of the newer type of cartoon and marks a period in the evolution of cartoaning. Only one point is attempted in each pioture and that point is unmistakable, whereas the cartoons a few years ago were apt to have so many points that they were ali lost except to one who could spare enough time to figure them out. The drawing is excellent and the tech- rique admirable for newspaper repro- duction. The artist has a wonderful feeling for decoration and his composi- tions show an admiration for the work cf Dore. The cartoons were originally published in the New York Sun and Evening Post. (Smalil,;-Maynard & Co., Boston.) EEE NEW PUBLICATIONS. Can Germany make peace now? What will she give to get it?

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—Dave Fultz, president of the Baseball Players Fra- ternity, ridiculed the suggestion that a strike of the players was a possi- ble result of yesterday's action of the National Commission. “There is nothing to strike about, The only application we had in was one to eliminate the clause in the Players’ contracts which permitted the magnates to release players hurt in play, because that injury deprived them of their playing skill. “The commission answered that they could not make any such order, because the injury clause had al- ready been eliminated. “There are only two still existing contracts in force, which permit the off-hand release of any injured play- er. The new contracts not only for- bid the magnate to release an_ in- jured player, during the period of his disability, put provide that his salary Shall continue. “The decision of the Commission means that this shall, in the future, be the only recognized form of con- tract and we therefore really MORE than we ask for, though on the surface it appears we have been turned down. _ “Under the circumstances, therefore, it is obyious there is nothing for the players to strike about, so there will be no strike.” $30,000 Offer to Darcy Boils Down to $15,000; Rickard Passes It Up Special to the Post-Dispatch.

It also was intimated that no re- quest for a furlough had come from any source. s Descamps, manager for Carpentier, today also said that the boxer had not asked for a furlough and did not expect to do so, as he considered it impossible to get a leave on his own personal request. a New Orleans Business Men’s Association to Buy Another Racing Plant NEW ORLEANS, La.; Jan. 6—The Business Men’s Racing Association soon will purchase the Fairgrounds Race Course, for $400,000 from the old Louis- iana Jockey Club, it was announced to- day. Arrangements for the purchase are said to be complete, and payment of the price is to be made in install- ments, extending over a number of years. Acquisition of the Fair Grounds will place the Business Men’s Racing Asso- clation in possession of New Orleans’ two race tracks, the association re- cently having purchased the City Park plant from H. D, Brown. The association hopes that by acquir- ing the two tracks it will eliminate the possibility of competitive racing here, Coupled with the report that the Busi- ness Men’s Association wil! buy the Fair Grounds, it can also be stated on high authority that just as soon as the purchase is completed, the officers and directors of the association, on behalf of its stockliolders, will formally trans- fer to the City of New Orleans and its people the City Park track recently ac- quired from Brown, the Havana rac- ing promoter. ---->-~-— 1919 Futurity Will Be Worth $35,000; Entries Total 919, More to Come NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—-Enovugh entries for the 1918 Futurity arrived at the of- fices of the Westchester Racing Asso- ciation to bring the total for the 2-year- old classic to 919. Although A. McL. Erlocker gloated over the newly arrived piles of blanks from Kentucky, he said he was not quite satisfied and would not be until the en- tries had passed the 1000 mark. s he knows of a number of breeders o are sure to be heard from before the books are closed, it looks as though his expectations will be realized. The record for nominations for the Futurity was set when thoroughbred racing was in its heyday in 1900. That year the books for the 1902 fixture closed with 1241 entmes, For the next four years they passed the 1000 mark. In spite of this, the 1919 fixture will be the richest since the added money was cut from $10,000 to $6000. A conservative estimate would set the purse at some- thing like $36,000. The Futurity of 1890, won by Potomac, $77,000, the high-water mark worth for the race.

During the campaign! of 1916 over 20,000 tennis permits were! issued in St. dlouis as against 10.000 in| Cieveland. The latter total probably j would have’ been increased but for the | fact that J. F. Potts, director of sports | in Cleveland, decided that. the players, needed no permits near the ¢lose of the season. Cleveland officials estimate that 600 players took part in its municipal net tourney. . St. Louis Has Two Courses. Another edge for this city came in golf, where the local players have two, links—one of.18 holes and the other of nine—to play over. Cleveland’s municipal goifers in 1916 had only one course, one of nine holes in Highland Park. It is the intention, however, to increase this to 18 before next season opens, In this city 6000 permits were issued against} 4500 in the Forest City. { Cleveland gains an edge on this city, in sports which are not handled by the: local association. They are college foot- | ball and cricket. The city of Cleveland | maintained 14 football gridirons last year | and three cricket creases. The city officials of this city built a municipal track in Caronddet Park and held a track and field meet late in the season. This meet is to be an annual feature and Rodowe Abeken announced yesterday that it would be staged on July 4. Cleveland had no meéet last year, but intends to hold one this sea- son, at some late date in May. Cleve- land has a track in Brookside Park. 5700 Cleveland ‘Ball Permits. In Cleveland during 1916, 5700 permits for baseball games on the city diamonds were issued. No similar record is kept, in St. Louis, as the .teams are regularly organized in the Municipal League and play their regular schedule. There are 120 teams and each of these played about 2) games, not including the eliminatien clashes. Then many independent con-| tests, and also the public school elashes were staged on diamonds maintained by the city. All these included would bring | the number of clashes to about even! terms. | Cleveland staged a motor boat carni- val, roller skating and ice-skating events under the jurisdiction of the city, but lack of regulation facilities do not per- mit the holding of events of this kind here. | { ‘ In this city, | and also swimming races. ’ for the wien though, women competed as well as the men.

UT changed. It has passed jest to earnest, with Al. He has been recognized seriously by the ‘greatest middle- weight factor in the world—Lester James Darcy.

This would the despised awere it not be a great victory for Al—this recognition- for the fact that Darcy has tndicated that’ he wants to take on a few PRACTICE engagements, before meeting the real good ones.

In fact, Al may prove a very good trial horse for Darcy, if he ever avrees to get into the ring with the hard-hitting man from. the bush country. 2 + * 'The Middleweight Lineage. HILE on the: subject, here's the W middleweight title lineage for handy reference. It may be needed, when Darcey begins to knock around our American 158-pounders: Stanley Ketchel won the title from Papke. Whey Ketchel died, Papke claimed the title and lost it oe Frank Klaus in Paris, in 1913. Then George Chip popped Klaus on the chin in 6 rounds, late jn the same year, for a knockout. He repeated it i one roun@ less. a few weeks lIater, because his first victory was ques- tioned. ; That gave Chip a clear line on the middlewelght honors, until April 7, i914. That day George strolled into the ring with his heart inclined to mercy. “et him stick around a while.” was the alleged instruction handed out to Mr. Chipulonis. He obeyed. Al hung one around the point ef Chip’s chin and George awoke, half a minute later, in Hasenheendom, from which championship suburb he has never been able to return. in PASE, it may be mentioned that Darcey knocked out Chip, about the halfway point in a 20-round fight. McCoy's rate will, by compartson, be interesting to grote. Boston Schools Lead Ours. S T.

They exchanged apologics several times during the evening for striking. each other low blows, but were perfectly good-natured about it, and treated the matter as if it were a joke The only display of anger occurred when Kelly was hit a low punch just a trifle harder than one of the others, and he said: “I don’t mind your doing it once tn a while, Minor, but don’t do it too often.” That night Minor showed himself to be e a veritable Joe Grimm, who was su one time to be thé greatest glutton ishment the ring ever saw.
