CHICAGO, Jan. 13.—When Raold Amundsen, the explorer, left Chicazo dent Wilson's note. This is regarded here as the present bright spot on the horizon of the war. ; From the.outset the German view- ; point, as understood in this city, has ‘| been that it would make no materia! difference im a peace corference what terms or objects were stated publicly. Because of pressure of sentiment at home, both sides naturally would name ‘maximum” terms, if any, in public “Objects” Broader Than “Terms.” It was pointed out today in this con- mection that there is a wide difference between “terms’’ and ‘‘objects,”’ and that the entente reply discusses ‘‘objects ° This, it is contended, may mean, that while the entente would like to accom- piish the “objects” stated, if a peace conference were held their ‘“terms’ tions outlined in the answer. The “ob- jects’ indicated are declared t« be only such as a victor at arms might seek te dictate.

NEW YORK SENDS FOR HIM Judge Rassieur Attending Gen- eral Term and Proceedings in Case Are Delayed. Alexander P. Macauley, Toronto gas and oil promoter, appeared in Judge Rassieur’s court today to answer on a $10,000 fugitive bond under which he was held at the request of the New York police, after his arrest here. Macauley was indicted here Thurs- day on a second degree forgery charge, and there are 16 indictments against him in New York. In court today Macauley was accom- Panied by his son and his attorneys. It was necessary for them to wait while Judge Rassieur was attending a general term session of the Circuit Judges. Requisition Is Requested. Detective Patrick J. Curley of New York, accompanied by Circuit Attor- ney McDaniel, yesterday went to Jefferson City to ask Gov. Gardner to issue requisition papers so that Mac- auley could be taken to New York. While they were there the Govern- or was called on the long-distance telephone by Former Circuit Attorney Harvey, of counsel for Macauley who asked that the requisition papers be denied, as Macauley wished to plead to the §t. Louls charge first. In view of Harvey’s objection Gov. Gardner decided to hear arguments be- fore acting. He set the hearing for Wednesday. The requisition papers allege that the man known in New York as A. P. Ma- cauley passed bogus traveler's checks in New York Dec. 23. This is the date on which Macauley’s registration is shown in St. Louis at the Hamilton Ho- tel. He has produced a number of wit- nesses to show he was in’ St. Louis on that day and has said he was in New York on Dec. 9, but not on Dec. 23. Got Reeript in New York, Dec. 9. Among Macauley’s effects when he was arrested was a receipt showing shat he rented a safe deposit box from a New York trus company Dec. 3. There mas "THO évidence to show he was there Dec. 23. Circuit Attorney McDaniel today said he would recommend that the present fugitive bond be reduced to $3000 and a new bond of $5000 be required, to cover the St. Louis indictment, and that the case be laid over a week, or until after the extradition hearing. POLICE. SAY LENIENT COURTS AND PAROLES FOSTER CRIME Editorial in Their Journal Says Mod- eration Whets Minds of Youths to Graver Deeds. The Police Journal, official organ of the Police Department, today con- tains an editorial saying the. parole system and the leniency of the courts are responsible for the present act- ivity of criminals in St. Louis. The article was written by James C. Espy, secretary of the Police Board, with the sanction of the board members. “We deny that present conditions are the fault of the police,” it reads. “Doubtless the modern system of leniency in dealing with offenders is the main reason why crime and criminals seem to increase. “Pardons are fully granted by courts in many cases where modera- tion only whets the minds of youths to more and graver crimes. Paroles are common in all courts—police, courts of criminal correction and cir- cuit. “Then there are cases when men are convicted and sent to the peni- tentiary; many of these are paroled through the State Board of Pardons and Parole. The present § criminal! conditions are not local; they are gen- eral. “Is it not to be asked if the rem- edy does not lie largely in the hands of legislatures and courts?’ Few men are now punished in proportion to the crimes which they commit. Should not the punishment be made to fit the crime?” CRUISER MILWAUKEE AGROUND Strands Off Califernia Attempting te Salvage Submarize H-3. EUREKA, Cal, Jan. 12—The United States cruiser Milwaukee went on the shore near this point today.

CHICAGO, Jan. 13—Mrs. Rosalind Guggenheim Winslow, whose ‘Letters of a Dakota Divorce,” brought her lit- erary prominence some years ago, Is said to be living apart from Horatio Winslow, to whom she was married in New York. Friends say their estrange- ment is the result of ‘“‘too much psy- chology.’’ Mrs. Winslow's sister, Mrs. Franc Mayer, said today that the couple in most friendly fashion had agreed great- er happiness lay in living apart. Mrs. Winslow is said to be in the West, while her husband remains in New York, where he writes for the magazines.

Pierce two days ago notified the court through his attorney that he would contest the suit, the attorney this morning exhibited a tele- gram from Pierce instructing him to no defense, stating “I have no grounds for a contest.” Mrs. Pierce, quietly dressed in a dark tailored suit with mink furs, gave her testimony in a low but composed voice that carried easily for some distance from the witness stand. Mrs. H. Clay Pierce, who is both her mother and her mother-in-law, was present, but did not take the stand.

Mrs. Kennard and Mrs. Niedringhaus testified they had seen Pierce in public in a state of intoxication, and that Mrs. Pierce’s character was good. J. Porter Henry, attorney represent- ing Pierce, asked permission to ex- plain his position. He recalled that the divorce petition had been placed in the default column, and that on Thurs- day he requested that it be removed from the docket, as his client wished to contest. It was represented that Pierce did not desert his wife, but went to a sanitarium with her knowledge and consent because of his i!! health: that he attempted to communicate with her, but received no answers to his letters, and that “Mrs. Pierce ig not an injured or innocent party in. the meaning of the law, so as to entitle her to a divorce.” Pierce Changed Mind. He showed a telegram from Pierce, dated Jan. 9, authorizing him to insti- tute a contest, and another, dated two days later, instructing him to drop the defense. When the suit was filed last October the identity of the parties remained unknown for nine days, because ficti- tious names were used. The names be- came public because personal service could not be obtained on Pierce, and it was necessary to serve him by pub- lication. Roy Pierce is 2 years old, and Mrs. Pierce two years younger. His first wife, whom he married in November, 1910, was Betty Chapman, divorcee and actress. An annulment of the marriage was ob- tained in August, 1911, without opposi- tion.

NO REFERENCE TO FEES State Auditor Was Exonerated on These Charges When County Clerk. By Long Distance Telephone to the Post-Dispatch. WARRENTON, Mo., Jan. 13.—State Auditor George Bp. Hackmann, former Clerk of Warren County, under indict- ment here on charges of perjury, utter- ance of false affidavits and fraud in of- fice, would not discuss the charges in| detail today, but said: “l am not any more guilty than my little 9-year-old boy.” In deciining to make a specific reply to the charges, Hackmann said he was not at liberty to do so, as the case was entirely in the hands of his attorney. He arrived in Warrenton yesterday aft- ernoon, having come here voluntarily, and was put under an $180 bond. Of this bond $1500 covered the first indict- ment and $300 the second. The charges against Hackmann are based on reports which he made as to the amounts he paid as salary to a young woman assistant and to a man who occasionally acted as his deputy. It is charged that Hackmann falsified these reports to make it appear he paid these employes more than he réally paid them, and diverted the overplus to his own Ds No Reference to Fees.

Director Zach and his men touched a high-water mark in their support of the piano part of Mrs. Beach’s Concerto in C-Sharp Minor, in Glazounow’s gorgeous sym- phonic tableau, “‘‘The lcremlin,” and par- ticularly in Schubert’s ‘“Unfinished”’ Symphony. The audience was in size one of the largest and in enthusiesm the most warmly responsive of the year. As the panorama of the concerto’s first movement -,began to rush past, one’s first impression was that here was one of the most amazing bravura displays ever conceived. There appeared to be an incessant blaze of fireworks. both in or- chestra and piano. But soon it as borne in upon the mind that every one of these dazzling notes had its inevitable place and meaning; that not one of them was introduced for mere ornament or parade; and then came the discovery that Mrs, Beach is a modern American not only by birth but in genius, that what seemed pyrotechnics was merely speed, and that, in these days of motor cars and telephone, her inspiration does not saunter along on foot, but travels with the velocity of a Twentleth Century express. Many Orchestral Innovatiors. And her inspiration had not only blind- ing speed, but also unflagging vitality, another American trait.

The proof of abounding life lay in the total absence of any sign | Likewise American Was her wWilliag hess to experiment, especiaily in orches tral effects.

In the sherzo was something never befure attempted in composition, a “‘perpetuum mobile” figuration for the piano, with the orchestra carrying the melodies. The violins here were divided into as many as eight sections for the sake of color, some playing pizzicato and somo bowing on muted strings. Still anoiher American influence wss shown in her free use of syncopation in the first movement. Despite its prevailing chromatic hues, in melody, harmony and counterpoint, the concerto abounded in clearly dis- cernible tunes, for Mrs. Beach holds that the soul as well as the body re- quires its quota of sugar. The conse- quence is that although the work is technically most difficult—only a pianist and orchestra of the utmost expertness could perform it—there is also a fasci- rating popular appeal.

Your issue of Jan. 10 states that a pharmacy class, watching the death throes of poisoned anl- mals, “is the first public demonstration of the kind in St, Louis.” Are there, then, to be others? All unnecessary torture of animals is fiendish. There ts very little of it at any time necessary. The cases spoken of were no real test, but some- thing already known. It its stated that the frog will die in exactly 30 minutes. The guinea pig suffers on for 12 hours more—and dies. “No ill! effects on the rooster but a colored comb.” ~A poison strong enough to kill a guinea pig cannot be particularly comfortable in the interior of a Peden The fact that his comb purpled shows that _ something was wrong. The dog—faithful, loyal friend of mankind—must take his turn. He stag- gers blindly all over the place. This is hilarious- ly referred to as a “jag.” Such acts as these by people who ought to know better scatters broad- cast the poison of brutality and unconcern. I came to St. Louis during the cold snap of Christ- week. Tree decorations everywhere, Yet whoned, unshod and overladen horses were con- tinually falling on the streets and being unmerci- y beaten because they couldn’t get up.- The * carollers paraded and sang of Christ's love and all g000 will, while at the Union Station crate after crate of chickens smothered to death, overcrowd- ed, and doubtless cold, unwatered and unfed. A stianity that has no regard to the decent treatment of animals is no Christianity at all. Vivisection and experimentation isn’t a matter of} ntiment or of taste. It symbolizes character, or tther, the lack of it. lL. M.

ST. LOUIS POST-DISP ACH, SATURDAY. EVENING, JANUARY 1 THROW McCLUNG OUT. The Legislature having passed the job of .clean- ing up the State Penitentiary to Gov. Gardner, his path is clear. He should rid the penitentiary of the burden and the State of the scandal of War- den McClung. — * McClung’s mismanagement of the penitentiary ought to be investigated. The conditions exist- ing in the prison ought to be exposed for the pub- lic good. The information gathered in a thor- ough inquiry would be a good guide on how not to manage a penitentiary. The people of the State expect the Legisfature to create a prison board and provide ® the com- plete reorganization and reform of the peniten- tiary. They demand prompt, sound, judicious legislation to this end, in accord with the plan outlined by Gov. Gardner. Meanwhile, McClung must go. Every,@ay he holds the office of Warden he is a menacé to the public welfare and a reproach to the State. Throw McClung out—that is the first step to reform. A Warden of capacity and honesty should be substituted until the reorganization legislation is adopted. ._ i A _ = , 4 7 “Have a Heart,” a new musical comedy in New York, is said to have some real new jokes. The idea of New York having a heart is a good laugh in itself. ¢os - SNAPS UNDER THE INHERITANCE TAX. Among the early bills introduced at Jefferson City is one abolishing the representatives ap- pointed by the State Auditor in the several coun- ties to assist in the collection of the inheritance tax. About the only time the possessions of many persons of large wealth are made to bear their proper share of the general tax burden is after the full disclosure of their assets in the Probate Court. The c@mplete inventory of val- uables required in the settlement of estates leaves the inheritance collectors little to do but draw It is only in exceptional cases that they serve any useful purpose and their com- pensation is an unnecessary expense on university revenue or any other fund to which the receipts of the inheritance tax may be devoted. These jobs only afford the opportunity to build up a Staté machine to be used by the State Au- ditor, as in the late primary campaign, to force decisions obnoxious to the people. They may wisely be abolished. a ¢ A LAW TO PREVENT BLINDNESS. The first biennial report of the Missouri Com- mission for the Blind urges more stringent legis- lation in order to save a number of infants from unnecessary blindness. Missouri has only one law on this subject. It requires midwives, under penalty of a fine, to report inflamed eyes of new- born infants to some physician. But she her- self is not required or empowered to take the very simple step to prevent possible blindness. As a result’of the lack of an effective law, over one-fifth of the children in the Missouri School for the Blind have lost their sight from neglect of the eyes at the right time, soon after birth. The Commission for the Blind has drawn up a law providing that every midwife shall cleanse the eyes of any infant born under her attendance and drop into each eye two drops of a one per cent solution of silver nitrate within two hours of the birth of the child. It also compels the midwife to report the condition of the child’s eyes to a legally qualified practitioner of medi- cine within 24 hours of discovery of an inflamed condition. This proposed law is the result of sad experi- ence. It should be passed. Unnecessary blind- ness can and should be baiffel hed from the State. +o & — “Full many a gem of purest ray serene the dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear.” A submarine with a great cargo of diamonds is reported on the way to us. THE GRANT MEMORIAL SOCIETY. The St. Louisans who have formed an organiza- tion to be known as the Grant-Dent Memoria] As- sociation, the principal purpose of which is to preserve historica] Missouri buildings, are to be commended. The old Dent home where Ulysses S Grant was married offers a fine beginning for their work. They hope to turn this and other places like it into museums for the benefit of the public, but their activities will doubtless in time embrace more extensive enterprises. It is a good thing for the whole people that men of such character and standing are willing to spare enough of their already fully occupied time to such matters. Their association will in time get into touch with similar societies, all of which are try- ing to preserve monuments which might other- wise be lost. They can count upon popular sup- port in whatever they shall undertake. = ™ ~~ > Millions of trees will soon be ready for refor- esting Pennsylvania. Reforesting in every state should be started as soon as possible. = = * —_— INTERVENTION WITH SPELLING BOOKS. Distinguished members of American college fac- ulties who urge an educational intervention on our part in Mexico must not think that their benev- olent plan will be accepted as a satisfying substi- tute by those who are urging intervention of an- other sort. It is plausible to argue that we ought to be interested enough to provide as many facil- ities for education in the territory, of our near neighbor as we have already provided in Turkey or China. But it would take a powerful lot of educational! facilities and probably almost a gen- eration of time to cause any great appreciation by this means In the Mexican holdings of Amer. ican speculators. The American school ma'am abroad as well as {at home is a personage of command and high capacity, as we have come to realize in recent years.. Should we send ber to Mexico, she would gather the little untutored peon children into | echoolrooms and presently they would be wearing clothes, reciting the multiplication table and read- jing selected passages from “Don Quixote” in the original. But how much would all that do for the i From the | ubsentee American landlords of Mexican ranches, the stockholders in Mexican mines who are de- dividends and the owners of Mexican utilities who find no war brides in civil disturb- ance? . The kind of intervention Wall street wants would cost a minimum of half a billion instead of merely five or ten million. It is gn educational intervention carried forward by bayonets and not spelling books. = = SS AN EXTEAVAGANT ASSEMBLY. The folly and extravagance of the Missouri Legislature in employing unnecessary clerks, stenographers, etc., are made more apparent than ever by a Post-Dispatch inquiry into how these things are managed in other states. Investigation of the payrolls of 17 other Legislatures shows that the Missouri lawmakers employ more per- sons than any of them, Where it maintains 335 employes, Ohio has 18. Where the Missouri Senate alone has hired 194 persons, the Illinois Senate has hired 40, and both houses in Indiana get along with 180. The Missouri House has employed 141, which is only one fewer than both Texas houses need and is 37 more than both Iowa houses need. The only other Legislature which approaches ours in this matter is that of Pennsylvania, but Pennsylvania’s total is 102 less than the Missouri total. Indeed, the legislative employes of Penn- sylvania and Iowa added together make only two more than Missouri has alone. Of the remaining states, both houses in Mon- tana and both in Oregon have fewer employes than the Missouri Senate has. Nine states have fewer than 50 employes each and none of the others reported has more than 70. In most cases provision is made for the employment of addi- tiona] stenographers by the day or hour, but only when their services are actually needed. All of Missouri’s surplus help gets regular pay, regard- Yess of how much or how little work is required. And yet Missouri is $2,000,000 in debt, its finances are demoralized, the condition of its treasury little better than a scandal] and its Lee- islature is pledged to economic reform! Spoils outweigh public interest and public policy and public decency. = |= TRIBUTE TO BELGIAN Goop FAITH. The German note to neutrals on peace pro- posals negatives its own charge of bad faith against Belgians. It contains this remarkable passage: | Twice the Imperial Government declared to the Belgium Government that it did not come as an enemy to Belgium and asked it to spare to the country the terrors of war. Germany offered to guarantee the integrity and inde- pendence of the kingdom to the full extent. and to compensate for all damages that might be caused by the passage of the German troops. The Belgian Government declined the repeated offer of the Imperial Govern- ment. Upon her and those Powers which in- stigated her to this attitude falls the respons- ibility for the fate which befell Belgium. A statement addressed particularly to neutrals that would be more unfortunate from the Ger- man standpoint can hardly be imagined. It can not remove but only confirms neutral opinion as/to the Belgian tragedy. It shows Belgium’s intense desire to remain with those nations whose more fortunate geo- graphica] site enables them to continue neutral. It sonvicts her, not of bad faith, but of the most exalted devotion to international obligations. Had she acquiesced in the passage of German troops, it would have been an act of war against Ger- many’s enemies. What would new “guarantees of integrity and independence” be worth from a nation which had already decided on the violation of its previous guarantees of integrity and independence? r= = '-— -—- - WINE VERSUS PROHIBITION. Minister of War Gen. Roque, upon an in- terpellation in the Chamber of Deputies, asking why, after having prohibited alcoholics for the army, they had been re-introduced; and why the New Year’s bill of fare for the entire French army contained the item, “125 centilitres of wine, over and above the ordinary daily allowance,” said in substance: Three general staffs attached to our highest commands in various flelds have been re- quested to note the difference between sol- diers under prohibition and those without the restriction; and the quality of work done by either class. All agreed that the soldiers re- celving a daily allowance of wine did better work than those deprived of the beverage. Not only did they show more initiative, but they also exhibited more stamen. The same inquiry of the Medical Direction brought the unanimous recommendation to re-introduce regular the wine allowance. As for hospitals and convalescents, their allowance had never been interrupted, as the medical corps stren- uously had opposed the measure from the outset. Finally, the round robin sent through the entire army brought a nearly unanimous request for wine on the daily bill of fare. Gen. Roque referred to the difference in the German army during the first year, when the beer allowance was most liberal; and this third year, when it was cut down to one-fourth in quantity and two-thirds in quality. While not desiring to express himself on the various phases of Russian activity, he thought that a student might even there find ample material for prem- ises; and he concluded that while such bever- ages were not necessaries, they were equally not to be classed among luxuries, where a nation had become inured to their use for centuries. One bottle of champagne to four men, he said, had certainly resulted most favorably at Verdun recently. On the whole, he considered, aside from the other reasons already stated, a soldier's life in the trenches was about all humanity could bear, end must not be aggravated by curtailing strength and animation. The soldier must be at his best to bear the strain. -— = Oe — - -—- Coffee Adamson Makes. ew York Sun. “Adamson of Georgia,” a Washington news item says, “is best known because of his eight-hour bil.” Most widely, perhaps, but not best.

There is already one woman in Congress, the appearance of woman everywhere in the Govern- ment service is only a matter of a few years, and it seems absurd to make such an effort as we are mak- ing to preserve something we know we can’t have after the women get in anyway. ‘‘Possibly, if our wives were present, they would not enjoy this—but I want -to tell you something about state secrets: Some of the best political minds in the world today are against them. It has been repeatedly pointed out that if everything which passed between the European Powers before the war broke out had been open and above board in the full knowledge of the people of those countries, there would not have been any war. ‘‘Tt is the state secret which enables international disputes to get out of the peoples’ hands before there is any chance to adjust them. Diplomats go as far as they like. If their indiscretions result in war, the people go out and do the fighting. ‘*‘Maybe the appearance in politics of woman, who can’t keep a secret, is to be the end of this tyranny. It will just stop automatically, as like as not.’’ HE PROBABLY WAS. HIRLEY STAWOOD was a very kissable girl. S Not that you could, but you would if you could. 7 Her first affair alarmed her parents. She met one of the City dog catchers New Year’s Eve at one of the fashionable cabarets. They walked the dog together. They looked into each other’s eyes and thought they saw the divine spark. But it was only puppy love. Then one summer she went to the seashore and there may have been other pebbles on the beach, but none of the geologists noticed them. Shirley was the Sunshine of the Shore. Even the crabs liked her. ; And there wasn’t a blue fish for miles around. And here Shirley fell madly, desperately in love. The man was her match—and kindled such a flame ee even her cheeks burned at his approach.

Yet had I clung to him I should even now be dead. For I am a salamander, but he was a FRESH Air Fiend!

Her father, S King Guetavius Adolphus, “the Lion of the North,”’ had built up Sweden from a third-rate to a first-rate EEuropean Power. Then died in bat- tle, in 1632, leaving his little daughter, Christina, to carry on his mighty work. And @ sorry mess she made of it. . Yet she began well enough. Her father had had odd ideas as to how a lit- tie girl should be reared to womanhood. And his advisers tried to carry out the dead King’s wishes. Gustavius Adolphus, having no son, had commanded that Christina be brought up like a boy. His Chancellor, Oxenstiern, chief of the regency council during the child’s minority, obeyed these orders to the letter. Christina was dressed in boy's clothes, was taught to bear hardships and perils. She was trained in every martial and athletic accomplishment and she received a man’s education. By the time she was 10 she was not only well versed in statecraft and jn languages and in all other branches of princely study, but she was a splendid athlete, a crack shot, a clever "- fencer and a superb rider. ee a a ' Incidentally, she was a heavy smoker, a steady drink- er, and swore more lurddly than. any soldier in her army. She slept but five houré out of the 24, could stay in the saddle for 10 hours at & stretch and was an intrepid hunter of bears ard wolves. She was well read, = and had all the detai|s of Europe's tangled political situatien at her fingers’ ends. At 18 she formally assumed contro! of the kingdom’s affairs. For a brief time she ruled wisely, even brilliantly. But while she was still in her teens she began to show ecceutricities that were hardly to be wondered at in view of her upbringing. For one instance, as soon as she was in power she broke off the marriage engagement her Council of Regents had arranged for her. When she was asked why she had consented to the match if she did not intend to keep her word, she answered: “At the time the betrothal was announced I had not the actua) rulership of a single farmyard, and certainly not of my own future.” She declared that other women were fools and not worth her friendship. She preferred to ride and hunt and car ouse with the rough officers of her staff. | Except on rare state occasions she dressed as a man or else in the very plainest “} towsled hair only once a week, and she washed her hands little oftener.

HE “clinging vine’’ woman is worse uy than a crime; she’s a blunder. She is a mistake in the scheme of Nature, and the tighter she clings the more likely she is to choke and stifle national life and national progress. Just as her vegetable prototype ultimately destroys the living growth on which it supports itself, so she {s a parasite that bodes il] for posterity. The doctor’s scalpel has been pruning the “clinging vine’ of her mentality and her fitness for wifehood and mother- hood. At a meeting of the Academy of Medicine in New York to discuss the problem of “Efficiency and Ineffi- clency,’’ Dr. Charles L. Dana pointed out that if the one or two inefficient members of a large family were women they usually were provided for by éarly marriage. -He commented. sharply on the fact that ‘“‘men love to marry the soft, childish, clinging type’’—who are probably ‘“‘tender-minded,”’ 1. e., none too bright. “And if the man is not very bright himself,” the physician added, ‘“‘it is a reaction of defense. Thus two sim- ple minds mate and breed their kind.” When I took this coldly scientific con- demnation of one of our commonest feminine types, and, incidentally, of a — _ masculine discrimination—to that well | known physician and eugenist, Dr. Fred- erick H. Robinson, I found him ready to indorse every word and even to go further. Dr. Robinson is editor of the Medical Review of Reviews and presi- dent of the Sociological Research Fund. He’s in Faver of a Wallop for the “Clinging Vine.” “Somebody ought to hit the ‘clinging vine and hit her hard,’’ said Dr. Robin- son. ‘She is not merely a dead-weight, - a piece of negative inefficiency, but she has a positively harmful influence on the race. There are not so many ‘clinging vines’ as there used to be, but plenty still exist. And—worse Juck—they are the sort that most men prefer to marry. Therefore, they apparently will continue to reproduce themselves—in either sex.”’ And then Dr. Robinson told me some- thing that should make even the tired business man lift eyelids weighted down with weariness. He probably doesn’t mind marrying a fool; in many instances, he does, indeed, seem to pre- fer her. But I never knew a man who wanted a son fitted to cling and noth- ing else, who really desired a mentally inefficient heir. \Yet he deliberately in- vites that fate when he marries the girl with hair the color of scrambled = ‘LL. Telephone Talk By Sophie Irene Loeb. Y — (Copyright. 1917, by Press Pub. Co.) (The New York Evening World.) “Cl out of this, this is a busy wire!’’ It was a very harsh voice that said this to me as I was waiting at the telephone tor my number. When I suggested that she might be on a busy wire, she called more boisterously | ‘Keep off of this!’ And in order to get away from that high pitched sound | hung up, left my number go until] 1 could again reach “Central.’’ I could not help reflecting, that if 1 had gone to, this woman's door by mis- take, rung the bell and asked the num- ber of a houpe near her, if this woman would have answered “Get out of this. You are in the wrong place!” Of course not. She could not have had the ‘‘face’” to do it. Yet when un- seen she has the “voice” to do it. Like the ogtrich, she hides her head in the sand and thinks no one sees her. If the friend she was trying to get heard her manner to me, I &m con- fident she fell somewhat fn the estima- tion of that friend. I should not want to know such a woman. She is a selfish creature. She would turn a deaf ear to the need of anyone but her own, She would witb- hold the helping hand to the strange human. She thinks that she was made for ev- erything and that everything was medo for. her. ; She is the kind of person that recog.- nizes her own rights and forgets those of others. She would push in a crowd and. grab the last life-preserver away from her grandmother. Why is ft that people put on their company manners when they see you and forget to don even the light coat of courtesy in long distance? There is much to be said about tele- phone talk. Oh, the heartaches and sorrows and unkindnesses that over the wire cannot be estimated! And why? Why not make it Send the mes- sage of consideration and joy instead of the instrument of Insult and injury? After all, when you sé6top to think, it was invented for one purpose. To bring humans in closer touch with each other. Certainly it should not be the cause of losing ite humane element, Whether it be friend or foe, pauper — come Don't fool with acold.

Hiow. much more pleasant the day is when you hear a sweet voice, a prompt reply, a kind and gracious manner! It costs so little aud ereates so much that is worth while. I wish it were possible for a course of telephoning to be added in all schools. Life would be made much hap- pier if a few golden rules were main- tained. Some of these might be: Don’t let your stenographer hold the line when you call somebody while you are finishing up another transaction; the person you have called might wish for the same privilege. Don't make engagements with the thought that you can telephone and change them. Too long has the tele- phone been the dealer of disappoint- ment. 3 Don't always be “in a conference” when a person calls with whom you don't wish to talk. It is like the wolf story—it won't work all the time. Be . frank about it. Don’t have another person called while you are “busy on another wire.” Don’t tel] the secret of your soul on a party line. Remember the central is strictly dis- ciplined and may not answer your abuse as you desefve. You are taking unfair advantage. Realize that the largest switchboard may be fully occupied. Don't ask too many questions to learn if you have the right person. Ask the most direct. thing. Remember the telephone porary speaking apparatus tea party. And, above all, think of the person directly before you and accord him the courtesy accordingly. is. a tem- and not a — Eggs in Cases.

The Hat of Angora Braid. [2 first hint of a straw hat has appeared on the New York streets during the last few days. Although Planned for wear in the South, a few intrepid women have donned these hats in the metropolis before wearing them in a warmer clime. They are a distinct novelty, being made of a woven braid which resembles a shiny, bright-colored straw with a fuzzy finish. The material is called ‘‘Angora braid,” and it is used either to make the whole hat, or to form a facing and trimming for a satin hat. It is light in weight, durable and comes in attractive colorings. ‘ Dividing the Load. RAcoN: I see the Butte Mining com- panies are shipping ore by parcel post. ighert; Tpet looks as tf they wore pat- i ‘ { } -_ a v/ j eggs and scrambled brains underneath. | ‘Have you ever noticed,’’ Dr. Robin- } son pointed out, “that the son of the strong, intelligent, highly successful business man often is a nincompoop? Think of the dissipated, addle-pated young men who have inherited great wealth in this country, and who show an utter lack of backbone, of moral fiber, even of ordinary common sense. The reason for them, in most cases, is that their fathers have married ‘cling- ing vines,’ pretty, affectionate, com- fortable little women who are mentally below the normal, who may have the mind of a 6-year-old child.’’ “Dr. Dana deplores the marriages of mentally inefficient men to women of similar caliber,’’ I pointed out. “You don't think such unions are limited to men whose minds are subnormalk?’’ Men Need a Stimulaivor, Not a Para- site, ‘“‘Assurediy not,’’ said Dr. Robinson. ‘Many really intelligent business men pick their wives and their shows on the same principle. They want what will amuse them, not what will stimu- late them and make them think. They want to come home, when they are tired, to a soft, pretty, stupid little thing who will not make demands on their exhausted brains, who will not ask them questions they cannot answer. “They say that imitation is flattery, but I think contrast is even more effec- tive. Among the blind the one-eyed is king. The semi-fool married to the per- fect little goose can convince himself so easily that he is an intellectual giant. And the man with brains, united to a beautiful, ineffectual inoron, sees him- self nothing short of a god.”’ “And you hold that the children suf- fer from the ineptitudes of the moth- ers?’ I asked. “The children seem more likely than not to inherit the mother’s mental defi- ciency,’ he said. “The exact probabil- ity of such inheritance has not been figured out. But the mother in a ma- “for a girl who is mentally deficient to get away with it than for a boy to do likewise. Much less is required of her. The average private school for girls makes but a feble tntellectual demar.d. And after school the girl so often es- capes that final test of ability—the njat- ter of making good economically, iu competition with other workers.” Aetress or Stenographer for a Wife? Yes. “That is all true,’’ agreed Dr. Rob- inson. “Such an environment and such education often turn into ‘clinging vines’ girls, who might develop into better ithings if they were not given all they wanted without being obliged to work for it. “it is frequen#ly called a misalliance when a man of wealth and position marries a chorus girl or a stenographer. As a matter of fact, the woman who has the brains to earn ner own living. on the stage or in an office, probably its a better potential mother than the deb- utante plaything in both ment@illy and physically unemployed. ‘‘The deficient clingers often are very pretty. Indeed, I have seen pictures of girls who were actually half-witted, but who were raving beauties. And a man looks no further than the surface. Nev- ertheless, he is wronging his children and grandchildren if he marries a wom- an who cannot think and work for her- self, who is ‘tender-minded,’ There are today plenty of splendid girls with brains—and there will be more of such giris when men demand them, It is men, after all, who most need education.” | } | = mess Pre prey y ri me x! a aa LOE LE LELI LL ILE AEE EAL LENNIE AE IE CELE LAL LLLLNL APNE BLE AN . ge. ee ee .

He also said that if he had wished to he’could have signed all his players long before this time. Comiskey Expects No Trouble. That the former Federal League play- ers would ignore Fultz’s orders to strike was the announcement made by Joe Tinker, former leader of the Chicago Federals and last season the Cubs. Tinker said that after the truce was called efforts .were made to enlist the ex-Feds, but that as far as he knew none had joined. He said he did not think any of them would support Fultz’s move against organized baseball. David Fultz himself spent a quiet day. All he had to give out in New York was an announcement that the major league players woul@ tick t0 thé niffior tossers.

Hoppe is in St. Louis. this He is paid from £2400 to $20,000. morning, after several weeks’ He has five months’ leisure, tour of the West and Northwest. ates ag Se his ppc and other He played 11,750 balkline points expenses pald. in all, and averaged for the en- He gets enormous bonuses for tire trip a trifle over 60 buttons success, and no penalties ior fail- per inning.

The same evening gore to do the very work for he made another run‘ of 10 points, which h: is no exorbitantly paid. which is close to world’s record form ata variety of play in which he does not specialize. *% It’s a good thine the controlling powers of billiards keeps Hoppe away from ctampionship three- cushion competitions. He'd put that class on the hummer, too. ce e* More Remarkable Feats. ON the recent trip, according to Hoppe’s business Man Fri- day, R. B. Benjamin, Hoppe, in eight weeks of play, averaged 125 on 10 occasions. That is to Say, he ‘ran out 10 games in TWO shots each. On two occasions he finished 250 points in ONE shot. 4 Hoppe is THE outstanding fig- ure among the champions of the world. His leadership is even more pronounced than was that of James J. Jeffries in that Big Bear’s heyday. The only man now talking “championship,” except for adver- tising purposes only, is Ora Morn- ingstar; and he doesn’t care to come closer to Hoppe than Frisco is to Chicago. Morningstar’s average for 10,- 000 points recently was an- mounced as being “over 30,” which would hardly tand him in the same hemisphere with the championship. = Wd; OVI ~ And vet he wants to STRIKE! The public’s patience is about done; these petted prima donnas should be allowed to go back to chauffeuring, conductoring or whatever else they might have done, had not baseball intervened and lifted them out of the dust. A year at REAL work would awaken many of them to just what a ->ft snav they enjoy, as ballplayers. Rules Made to Be Broken. | ballplayers have grievances against club owners, the lat- ter have many, many of them against their mercenary hirelings —0or some of them, at leabt. One clause of every player's contract is violated annually and by practically every player who signs a document. ere it is: The player agrees to render for the club owner * * his best services as a ballplayer: and he ye to keep him- self in the best possible condition from the date to the termination of this con- tract. Despite the splendid ~pay and easy work, certain players cannot be faithful to their employers in these twe vital particulars, al- though they have almost six months in which to relax and pursue their own whims after the season is over. * * ~ As nearly as an outsider can judge, therefore, the macprayer who would strike agains his present “slavery’’ ought to be ex- amined in his top story. He doesn't know a good thing when he HAS it. His shortsightedness may cause him to open his eyes, should he carry his view to the extreme of striking. He will get what is coming te him, then—iless pay and more work. * . More About ‘‘Pro-Amateurs.”’ HE billiard world, together with other sporting and rec- reational circles, is going after the festive professional in a two- handed manner. The same standard definition of amateur that is being handed around by tennis and golf heads is being used to distinguish be- tween the crude stuff and the more refined or club variety of cue artist. The separating of the amateur from the professional in billiards will be fully as easy as resolving a cup of Java and cream into its separate constituents. There is one sure way to tect the amateur billlardist which does not apply in most other sports—the amateur cueist can’t approach even the third-rate pro- tessional in skill. They are very, very amateur, in fact. : * * » Old, but Appropriate. ] * this connection we mav re- call the time-honored ‘“wul)” which has been attributed to several ivory-to-ned university simon-pures: “Sure we lost: we played like a lot of amateurs.” * * ~~ ““ Thumbs Down’’ for Fultz. Bp Avs FULTZ, the ball play- ers’ Von Hindenberg, is massing his forces for a blow at Organized Baseball. The reason for David's skull play in the mat- ter of threat: ‘~ a strike, just because Harr Sallee saw fit to ditch his associates in the Plav- ers Fraternity, is not clear. Sal's act of itself is hard to blame on the magnates. But, whatever the cause, a strike is sure to get David “in dutch.” with the fans. There ts little sympathy for the baseball player of today. He is a pr~ »ered son of fortune who is already ~ald out. of all --onortion to the {n- trinsic value of his services. . . . It’s a Tough Life, Bo.

Cowler, and the tall Minnesota boy New York Promoters Already Talking of Match for the ‘“‘Championship.”’ Dispatches from New York state that sentiment has swung around strongly in favor of Fred Fulton, since his defeat, is now being considered as a possible opponent for Jess Willard, when the champion decides to come out of his shell and appear in a bout. Fulton is matched with Frank Moran for a 45-round fight at Havana, Cuba, unless plans already announced have gone by the wayside. Fred must have a lot of confidence in himself to take on a tough nut like Moran over a long route, Fulton is young, however, and Moran has really done little. In fact, he is world’s champion bread-winner and fight loser, having made big money for lusing three important contests. Expert on Fulton. Here's what Bob Edgren had to say, after Fulton’s appearance against Cow- ler: : As a fight the Fulton-Cowler affair was a joke, but it waen’t Fulton’s fault. He started off like a champion, cool, col- lected and with the nerve of a man that knew his business. He jabbed his left flush into Cowler’s features and took a unch or two tn return as if to show hat he could “‘take ft’’ without wither- ing. Then he stepped around a bit, al- lowed Cowler to hit him in the stomach and shot a right across. Down went the ‘‘man mountain’’ in a heap. game enough and got up. ” around a bit, and then Fulton exhi himself as a mechanic. Without the slightest trace of over-anxiety he walked eround Cowler and shot in a couple of rights and lefts and then *' Cowler for the real thing. hand unpereut. Fulton landed,‘ on the chin, and down Cowler went again —this time to stay. Fulton knew he wouldn't get up. He stood in the center of the ring, etretched his arms wide at full length with a degree of satisfac- tion. Cowler was counted out. After the bout Fulton gave Cowler credit for having @ good wallop, ‘Sut ho was more inclined to talk about Wil- lard. ‘“‘Willard,’’ said Fulton, ‘‘I'll lick him sure. I know it.’’ And between us I wouldn't advise anybody bettirg aga:nst the Minnesota rlasterer even against Willard. Right now he ought to beat everybody else. Bonds-Moran Match Off. Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan, whose brother, Sport, is looking after the for- tunes of Jack Moran, the young heavy- weight fighter, announced today that Joe Bonds had backed out of his match with Moran.

Three Strikes and No Ball | GOLF ASSOCIATION CLARIFIES RULE ON AMATEUR QUESTIO Players Engaging in Any Busi- ness Wherein Skill Gains Profits Ineligible. LOCAL MAN. IS. ELECTED Sterling Edmunds Is Named Member of Executive Commit- tee at Annual Election. NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—Several golfers of national reputation will be driven from amateur ranks by the application of the new definition of amateurs approved early today at the annual méetings of the United States Golf Association. The meeting also sustained the rule under which Pran- cls Oulmet, Paal Tewksbury and J. Ft. Sullivan Jr. of the Woodland (Mags), Golf Club, were deprived of their amateur standing. A motion for a direct vote on the action of the Executive Committee in Siving notice to the disqualified golf-. ers and calling on the Woodtand Club to withdraw their names from the handicap list of Massachusetts Goif Association, was ruled out order after the vote on the main question had shown that OCultmet's friends were well in the minority. After a spirited debate lasting long after midnight the delegates, by a vote of 80 to 12 upheld a report of the Executive Committee sharply re- stricting the status of an amateur. The rule as amended and adopted, makes ineligible as an amateur the player “engaging iu any business con- nected with the game of golf whereis one’s usefulness er profits arise be-. cause of skill or prominence im the game of golf.” Amateur Is Defined.
