Warden William R. Painter, who took office Monday, escorted the correspondents. During the administration of Warden McClung the doors of the prison were closed to representatives of metropoli- tan newspapers, and access to all rec- ords of the prison was refused. Warden Painter announced that newspaper men would be admitted to the prison when- eve: they wished to visit it or had busi- ness in it. He said the records would be open to inspection. The prison interior presents a good physical appearance. One noticeab.e thing is the frequency with which the name of former Warden McClung ap- pears chiseled in the stone of buiidingt and walls. In four places are tablets bearing the name of the former Warden. BILL PERMITTING CITY TO ANNEX SUBURBS OFFERED Feople Would Have to Appreve Pro- ect if Legislature Passes the Measure. A bill to authorize the ‘annexation of communities. in St. Louis County to the City of St. Louis will be introduced into the Legislature this week, and its passage will be advocated by a commit- tee from the Million Population Club. The bill will. not, of itself, bring about annexation, but will make it possible, on the vote of St. Louis and of any community to be annexed. A commis- sion would adjust bonded liabilities. The chief argument in behalf of the measure is that it will increase the city’s population and remove the dan- ger that St. Louis will lose fourth rank among American cities by the 1920 cen- sus.

WASHINGTON, Jan. %4.—Armed mer- chant ships seeking passage through the Panama Canal will be accorded the same treatment as other merchantmen if. the Governor of the Canal Zone is satisfied that the armament is solely for defense.

OVERCHARGED.CITY $10,000 Six of Old Judges Opposed His Confirmation Because of His “Official Misconduct.’ A dispute among the 14 Circuit Judges as to whether Louis (Tub) Becker's recent appointment as a Deputy Circuit Clerk was legally confirmed, brings out how the strength of the Republican pvu!- itical machine was exerted on the Cir- cuit Court in an effort to retain a $175- &-month job for the so-called boss“ of the Eighth Ward. Becker, who for nearly 20 years hus controlled. Republican forces of the Eighth Ward by virtue of his member- ship on the City Committee, met witn determined opposition from some of the Judges, who, in an executive session. vehemently declared his previous record as 4 court clerk proved his unfitness for reappointment. Although the general term sessions of the Circuit Judges are secret, Post-Dis- patch reporters have learned that the seven Republican Judges who voted last week for Becker’s confirmation were those elected last November. Each of these Judges, in the campaign for elec- tion, had the support of Becker in the Eighth Ward, as well as the support of the entire Republican machine. The Judges elected last November, who voted for Becker's confirmation, were Klene, Garesche, Rassieur, Taylor, Davis, Calhoun and Falkenhainer. The six Judges voting against him were Presiding Judge Grimm, who led the fight against confirmation, and Judges Shields, Cave, Koerner, Hennings and Jones. Judge Kimmel was absent. The only Democrats on the bench are Judges Cave, Koerner, Hennings and Jones. Issue Raised Against Him. : The issue raised dy some Judges against Becker was that, as Clerk of the Juvenile Court, he had “intentionally violated the law and the Court's printed rules by filling out court cost bills in such a manner that in four years the Sheriff and Circuit Clerk had received, about equally divided between them, ap- proximately, $10,000 m fees from the city treasury to which they were not entitled. It was charged that Becker persisted in this conduct aftér being warned against it by two Judges, at intervals of three years. Becker himself got none of the fees in question. They went to the Sheriff and the Ciecuit Clerk to help pay the ex- penses of conducting those offices. The greater the fees of these offices the more money available for salaries for Deputy Sheriffs and Deputy Cireuit Clerks, and the more jobs available for political henchmen. Dickmann’s salary as Sheriff was $10,- 000 a year, and he employed 65 deputies, all of whom he paid out of the fees of his office. A law provides that fees of the Sheriff and the Circuit Clerk, in ex- cess of the amount necessary for con- ducting these offices, shall be returned to the city treasury as “surplus fees. Sheriff Dickmann did not return any surplus fees to the city, and no such fees have been returned to the city from the Sheriff's office in the last 12 years. Graves Paid Bank $19,000. Ciréuit Clerk Graves, in the four years ending last April, shortly before he died, had paid back 319,5. in surplus fees to the city treasury. The court costs in tns Juvenile Court are taxed against the city treasury, whereas court costs in civil cases are taxed against litigants. Becker’s cost bills were commented upon by Judge Grimm last February, and four months later, after m:.ny communications had passed between Judge Grimm and Circuit Clerk Graves, Becker was transferred from Continued on Page 2, Colamsa 3.

PRORIBITION TALK INJEFFERSUNGHTY Says He Entered Dry Fight When Brewers Tried to Con- trol Nebraska Senate, By a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Jan. %—William J. Bryan, in the first of three speeches here this afternoon, declared that he got into the liquor fight first several years ago when he discovered that a liquor organization outside of Nebraska was spending money and trying to dic- tate the membership of the State Sen- * ate. His address was before a mee aa 2 of prohibition workers at the Methodist Church, Bryan said he made a serious mistake early in the fight because he thought it would be easier to carry small localities for prohibition than larger ones. He has since been convinced, he said, that the sentiment is the other way. Statistics show, he declared, that in counties where 55 per cent of the voters favor local prohibition; 6 per cent fa- vor state prohibition and 8 per cent are for national prohibition. As an example, Bryan said that his home town, Lincoln, Neb., with 25 sa- loons, voted wet on local option by 1000 majority, but voted for State-wide pro- hibition by 3500 majority. “Until four years ago,’ said Bryan, “I thought that this question would solve itself, but now it is a live is- sue. There are three great questions which I am trying to help solve— woman's suffrage, prohibition andi world peace.“ Guest of Gov. Gardner. Bryan arrived at 12:0 p. m. and went to the Governor’s mansion for lunch, where Senators Morton and Gardner, and Representatives Farris and Sprague. party leaders in the Legislature, also were guests. At the dinner also were judges of the Supreme Court, members of the Public Service Commission, the Lieutenant- Governor, the Speaker of the House, of- ficers of the State Women’s Christian Temperance Union, and officers of the Missouri Anti-Saloon League. Senator Charles F. Carter addressed the crowd at the church, while Bryan was at lunch. Carter spoke of the delay in Bryan’s arrival, and declared that he hoped Bryan would keep the feet of the legislative party leaders under the table and their hands above the table until they mended their ways.“ Later in the day Bryan addressed 2 joint session of the Legislature, and an overflow meeting at the Christian church. B.- HERE ON WAT 10 ADDRESS STATE LEGISLATURE Declares Plan of Brewers to Raise Great Fund to Fight Prohibition Will Only Aid Cause. William Jennings Bryan, passing through St. Louis this morning on his way to Jefferson City, talked with progress of the prohibition movement, in the interest of which he is to ad- dress members of the Legisiature to- night. Bryan spoke of the ‘announced plan of the brewing interests to raise @ great fund to fight prohibition. He prohibition cause, since it would es- tablish, in the public mind, the fact a great corrupting influence Hc reafter, said, those who pub- Hely oppose prohibition will be di- He also ommented on August A. Busch's recent suggestion that the saloon" bar should be replaced by tables. This, he said, would be a change for the worse.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.—Representa- tive Padgett and the House subcommit- tee charged with framing the naval bill have completed their task and will re- measure carrying $353,000,000 for 1918. The bill provides that if the Navy Department is unable to get satisfac- tory bids for construction of ships by private plants, $12,000,000 more is appro- priated for equipment to construct them at navy yards. The bill raises the limit of cost of battle cruisers from $16,500,000 to $19,- 000,000 each, and of scout cruisers from $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 each. The building program provides for three battleships, one battle cruiser and subsidiary craft. CLAYTON PROHIBITS BUILDINGS _ OF MORE THAN TEN STORIES 1 ren 4 ss tithes e ea capes of Which City Yet as None. The town of Clayton is determined never to permit its sylvan thoroughfares to be turned into a canyon of skyscrap- ers. The Board of Aldermen last night passed an ordinance prohibiting the erection of any structure more than 10 stories high. The county seat does not at present boast a single office build- ing higher than two stories. This provision was included in a list of seven ordinances calculated to reduce Clayton’s fire insurance rate by one- third. Oth-~ provisions are for fire es- capes on three-story buildings—of which | there are none save residences—regu-| lation of moving picture theaters and the storage of explosives, the establish- ment of fire limits and inspection of all buildings. The ordinances were passed to meet the requirements of the Mis- souri Inspection Board. Other ordinances pending regulate the storage of petroleum products, and cre- ate a paid Fire Department and puild- ing Inspector. Clayton now has an auto fire engine, but its Fire Department is made up of volunteers.

A new curfew whistle was jastalled in Granite City last night to warn resi- dents of the Tri-Cities of the N of bedtime. For several months the 8 of the National Enameling and Stamping Co,“s plant served as a curféw but because of its peculiar screeching tone farmers complained that it frightened their cows and as a result the cows refused to give milk. Now the curfew is sounded by the whistle of the Granite City Steel Works, which has a mellow tone, similar to the voice of a cow. “BONE DRY” PROHIBITION BILL PASSED BY ARKANSAS -HOUSE Gov. Brough Announces He Will Sign Measure, Already Adopted by Senate, Today. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan. 24.—The Arkansas House of Representatives to- day passed the Senate prohibition bill making the State “bone dry.” Gov. C. H. Brough announced he would sign the bill at 5:30 o’clock this afternoon. The act prohibits the shipment of in- toxicating liquors into the State, ship- ment from one point of the State to an- other, storage of liquors, solicitation of orders and lockers, and provides fines for and dissolution of corporations or clubs violating any provision.

It seems to be certain, however, that the main engagement be- gan about 2 o’clock in the morning and lasted until about 7 o’clock, It was fought in intense darkness, while the severity of the cold can be judged from the fact that eight bodies on the V-69, the German flagship, were so frozen to the deck when the boat arrived at Ymui- den that they were hewn free with axcs, One Britisp vessel was sunk and the British official statement says one Ger- man ship was lost. A survivor of the German destroyer V-69 interviewed at Ymuiden by the cur- respondent of the Evening News says the main action occurred at a. point 3 miles off Zeebrugge.

WILSON’S SPEECH ‘PRINTED iN BERLIN BERLIN, via London, Jan. 24.—The newspapers are slow in expressing opin- ions of President Wilson’s speech, the text of which was received by them shortly before going to press. The aft- ernoon papers refrained from any com- ment, even the headlines being noncom- mittal, and the stock market, which is usually the most responsive barometer of popular sentiment, seemed to be un- affected. Nevertheless, the speech occupies a large part of the restricted columns of the press and is regarded as the news feature of the day. . Richard Olmey Praises President's Courage in 3 Stand. BOSTON, Jan. —Richard Olney made the following statement for the Post-Dispatch on President Wilson's ad- dress to the Senate: “The fundamental idea is nothing less than a stroke of genius. If any states- con- ceived of it, he has lacked the courage to proclaim it—if any statesman of any other country has been endowed with the necessary courage he has lacked the wisdom to realize that only through ‘peace without victory’ is any peace pos- sible. “The victory the President has in mind is not merely a defeat from whicn an organized people may recover and renew the strife, with unimpaired vigor. It is a victory which, judged by pur- poses expressly avowed, is utterly tw crush the beliten combatant and in er- fect eliminate it from the list of self- governing peoples. Such a result would merely not be worth the cost to the victor, but would be a crime against all mankind. It is to the great glory of America, not only that its President has kept us out of the present almost 182 war, but also has had the prescience and sagacity to recognize and point out the only road through which a desirable peace can be secured.” “It is a bold adventure,” said Dr. Charles W. Bliot. WHAT IS A INTERNAL BATH? a dozen people th summoned. G. O. P.

Last month Becker was one of five Republican City Committeemen whose appointment as Deputy Circuit Clerks were submitted to the Circuit Judges for confirmation. The appointments were made by Circuit Clerk Nat Gold- stein, who is also a Republican City Committeeman and a recognized power in Republican affairs in the city. On Dec. 30 the Judges met in execu- tive session, and after Becker's rec- ord as Clerk of the Juvenile Court had been spread before them by some of the Judges, they decided that his confirma- tion should be delayed, and that, at least, he should not be confirmed as Clerk of the Juvenile Court. A few days later five of the old Judges retired, and were succeeded by Garesche, Falkenhainer, Davis, Cal. houn and Klene. Judges Taylor and Rassieur had been re-elected. A week ago, with the seven newly-elected Judges sitting at the session, the géneral term of the court again took up Becker's ap- pointment. Was Given a “Hearing.” A reporter subsequently learned that the issue against Becker was again laid before the Judges by Grimm, who is Presiding Judge of the Court. One Republican Judge insisted that Becker should be heard,“ and he was When cross-examined, after the issue against him had been present- ed in his presence, he clung to the ex- planation that “he taxed the costs the way his boss told him to do.” He de- nied having seen a letter, written to him in 1913, by Judge William Kinsey, instructing him how to make out fee bills to comply with the law, and to pre- vent the Sheriff and Circuit Clerk from taking out of the city treasury funds to which their offices were not entitled. This letter happened to be in the court files, and although it was shown te Becker, he persisted in his statement ps it was the first time he ever 8a w The Sheriff's fees, he said, were filled ou according to the wishes of Sheriff Dickmann, made known to him in 1912, when “the Sheriff and his lawyer came to see me.“ Circuit Clerk Goldstein was summoned into the executive session and asked his reasons for appointing Becker.

The Post-Dispatch’s Paris cor- respondent really ought to ask some member of the French Chamber of Dep- uties to tell why France should continue the war when it knows the French peo- ple can have a favorable and honorable peace. It would be a strange turn of fate if this correspondent should chance to encounter the particular French Dep- uty, whom, shortly before the war, we entertained in our modest Hamburg home and with whom I discussed in a friendly and confidential fashion_ the fate of our two fatherlands in a world war. England’s Aim in War. That our honorably meant peace of- fer was rejected by the entente Govern- ments under England’s leadership didn’t surprise me. England is waging war against its competitor in world com- merce, industry and shipping, and, so iong as England’s allies-labor under the self-delusion that they are fighting for their own national aims this war will continue. “The nation which continues to fight against us with the greatest stubborn- at the front is re- garded as worthy of an old na- tion of soldiers, is the French. Yet it is strange that for none of our enemies is there such an utter lack of goal for continuing the war as for the French nation. / “In reading French newspapers I note that one tells the French people that they are fighting for civilization and freedom. I don’t believe that France, and, above all, the French soldiers, to- day still believe that the Germans want to annihilate France or French culture. Despite the fact that inhuman treat- ment by the French or Germans tn Mo- rocco—men, women and children—and of Yerman prisoners of war in great num- bers, by French officials, military offi- cers and soldiers, and the civilian popu- lace, has aroused infinite bitterness in Germany, the feeling in Germany against the French has never reached that degree of anger and repugnance as against England. “From the day of the declaration of war Germany has waged this war against France with no other object than to strike at the ally of Russia and the instrument of England. What impels the French nation to continue the war, which, end as it may, can in the long run only lead to the bleeding to death of France and its sinking to a power of the second rank — 4 power economically and politically completely dependent on England. It can only be explained that the French believe still that Germany seeks the complete destruction of their country.” — ness, and “Becker is my friend” and that “I will do anything I can for him.“ Controversy Over Note. Some Judges asserted a vote of 8 to 6, which is a majority of the entire bench, was necessary for confirmation. Others contended that the vote of 7 to 6 a majority of those present, confirmed Becker. In spite of the dispute Circuit Clerk Goldstein immediately had Becker sworn in as a deputy. Two days later J udge Benjamin Klene—one of the new Judges —established a precedent by entering on the records of his division of court an order stating that Beckér’s appointment as clerk “is confirmed by the Judge.“ Some of the Judges asked how Judge Klene could “confirm” a clerk who might be called upon to serve in any one of the 13 other divisions of the court. But Becker was on the job—in Klene’s court—continuing to draw $175 a month A Post-Dispatch reporter, knowing that Presiding Judge Grimm had led the fight, asked him to detail the issue against Becker. Judge Grimm said he could not tell what had transpired in the general term session, but stated he voted against Becker and that he did so because he considéred Becker’s ac- tion im the fee bills was “official mis- conduct of such a character that he should not be confirmed as a court of- ficer.”’ What Alleged Irregularities Are.

Every indication, Whipple said, was tha the exchange members would com- ply with the supplemental request, but if they did not, the committee would be hurriedly reconvened and steps would be taken to insure production of the de- sired records. Noble told the committee of the adop- tion last night of resolutions by the board requesting the 600 or more brok- erage houses to turn over the data on which it is hoped to learn the identity of operators dealing heavily on the short side of the stock market prior to the publication of the peace note. He said some reports probably would be in to- morrow or Friday. Chiperfield Criticises Whipple. Representative Chiperfield of Illinois. whose clashes with Thomas W. Lawson enlivened the hearings in Washington, criticised Whipple’s methods of examir- ing Noble and announced he would have more to say in the future as an indi- vidual member of the committee“ witn- out regard to counsel or committee. In the examination of Noble regard- thought he had impugned Noble he would apologize. „1 want to say that I, for one, am impressed with the spirit of co-opera- tion of these gentlemen,’ ‘was Chiper- field’s closing comment. Whipple then said he did not desire to examine the witness further. Most of the testimony of Noble was in regard to securities withdrawn from the list. He said stock in which there is little dealing because of its scarcity on the market is usually withdrawn. He also admitted that short' dealing in narrowly held stocks was dangerous because of the inability of speculators to borrow it. Reports May Be Delayed for Weeks. Samuel F. Streit, chairman of the Stock Exchange Clearing House, was recalled and to the surprise of the com- mittee, contrary to the opinion given by President Noble that the first re- sponses from the brokerage houses might be expected in a day or two, de- clared that the data could not be fur- nished inside of two weeks and some of the larger houses could not do it in a month. SAYS PRESIDENT’S ADDRESS IS DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE Hamilton Holt, Editor and Leader in League to Enforce Peace, Praises Speech. NEW YORK, Jan. 24.— Hamilton Holt, editor of the Independent and leader in the League to Enforce Peace, said last night: “Woodrow Wilson has added to the Declaration of Independence a decla- ration of interdependence. Six weeks ago the French Government sent to this country a representative, one close to Briand, to find out what was behind the League to Enforce Peace. The fault he found with it was that it had no clause in its program for the limitation of armaments. From this I drew the inference that France would stand for such a proposition. This came in con- junction with the German proposal, and the frank discussion behind it of the limitation of armaments. Then there came Woodrow Wilson’s great manifes- to. It is the destiny of the United States to lead this move.” WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.—The French emissary referred to by Hamilton Holt has not been received by President Wil- son nor at the State Department, as far as could be ascertained today. It is considered probable that any discus- sions that the emissary may have had in this country Were with Col. E. M. House, the President's trusted adviser. ALLIED SOLDIERS TO SEND PEACE LETTERS TO PRESIDENT PARIS, Jan. “#—President Wilson's note to the belligerents inviting them to state their war aims has been dis- cussed extensively by soldiers at the front, the Excelsior says. At one point near the junction of the French and British lines, at a place in the Argonne and at a point in Alsace, according to this newspaper, soldiers de- cided to send letters to President W- son each signed by 300 of them, thanking him for his generous intervention in favor of peace and inviting him to “dream no longer of the chimera of peace until victory is gained.” MANY = Distinctive REASONS Why you should try Hostet- ter’s Stomach Bitters — — — — —— — — — — PAINTING OF FREE BRIDGE UP The Board of Public Service was in session today at the oity hall to hear the arguments of representatives of paint companies which wish to furnish the black paint for the free bridge.

Johnson Before He Died to Be Used Against Elmer Barnes. A verbal statement made shortly be- fore his death by Aaron E. Johnson, United Railways motorman, of 3732 Maf- fitt avenue, is expected to be the strong- est evidence offered by the State against Elmer Barnes of 1426 Biddle street, who was put on trial in Judge Rassieur’s court on a — murder charge today. Johnson, 0 a car on the Nat- ural Bridge line, was shot three times and killed by an assassin when he was throwing a switch at Seventh and Wash streets at- 12:40 a. m. Oct, last. The slayer, pursued by a policeman, ran to an automobile a block west, jumped into it and escaped. Two or three other men had been waiting for him in the machine. Johnson died several hours later at tiie city hospital. He was visited there by his wife, Mrs. Augusta Johnson, and by a street car conductor friend, John W. Brewer. Mrs. Johnson and Brewer will testify that Johnson said: I was shot by that man I had arrested last June.“ This was a reference to Barnes, whom Johnson had captured when he found him in the kitchen of the Johnson home the night of June A last. In connection with this arrest a charge of burglary is still pending. In ‘order to give Johnson's statement the value of an ante-mortem declara- tion it will be necessary to show that die. This evidence will be given by Brewer, who will testify that as Mrs. Johnson departed from the hospital ward John- son said to him: ‘The little girl is going to be a widow.“ James C. Shaner has been employed by Johnson's family as special prose- cutor. With Assistant Circuit Attorney Reeder he will present the State's case. Thomas J. Rowe Jr. represents Barnes. The defense will be mistaken identity. There is no direct evidence against Barnes. At his preliminary hearing it was testified that Barnes went to the Natural Bridge car sheds and asked an employe to tell Johnson not to appear against him. Barnes explained that his mother had heart disease and he feared the shock of his prosecution on the bur- giary charge would kill her.

Richard F. Ralph, Prosecuting Attor- ney of St. Louis County, said to a Posi- I‘ispatch reporter today that four bills. in his opinion, impair the efficiency of the administration of justice in the county, if they should be passed. Three oi the measures were introduced by Senator Gardner, and the other by Re;- resentative Settle. Both are from Sk. Louis Counts. Two of the Gardner bills provide for changing the office of Prosecuting At- torney, in St. Louis County, back from & Salary basis to the former fee basis with a minimum of $1500 a year as the Prosecuting Attorney's pay. The Proe- ecuting Attorney now receives a salary of $5100 a year. The other Gardner bill is to repeal à previous act allowing the Prosecuting Attorney $500 a year for a ecntingent fund. The Settle bill is to prohibit the Pros- ecuting Attorney and his assistants from engaging in the private practice of law. Ralph said the contingent fund should be increased, rather than abolished. It is used, he said, to pay the expense of bringing witnesses from outside the State to testify in criminal trials in St, Louis County; for the cost of chemi- cal analyses; and for the employment of detectives in cases where they may be needed. Without the use of this fund. Ralph said, William Sprovse, who was hanged for murder, could not have been convicted, as the witnesses had to be brought from Illinois. To restore the fee system, Ralph said, would be a step backward. By this sy» tem, the Prosecuting Attorney formerly received a fee of $ for convifions in minor cases, and $19 for a conviction in- volving a penitentiary sentence. The tendency of this system, Ralph says, is to cause prosecutions in cases which might be settled without prosecution, es- pecially in cases involving family life. At present, he said, his office acts as a legal aid bureau and court of domestic relations, and settled cases out of court, which under the fee system, the Pros- ecutor would be tempted to Handle with a view to the fee. Ralph said he had no objection for himself to being debarred from the pri- vate practice of law so long as he re- mains in office, but that the enactment of Settle’s bill would make it difficult for him to get la Wyers of the sort he desires to serve as his assistants. The salary of his assistants is $1800 a year. Senator Gardner, Ralph said, has been hostile to him since Ralph refused to co-operate in the plan for test cases“ on the antibetting law, with a view to restoring racetrack betting+ in the county. — — Two Autos Stolen.

Mayor Kiel, in announcing his candi- dacy fer re-election, has made public 2 list of 17 pledges, out of 18 made in his campaign four years ago, which, he de- clares, have been ‘‘redeemed’’ by The only one not redeemed, he says, is that of a subway. The list of 17 items is to be published by the Campaign Committee which “%s supporting the Mayor for re-election. 8 ’ A Post-Dispatch reporter has looked up the records in each of these 17 mat- ters, and has learned just what part Kiel, as Mayor, took in each of the municipal achievements which he cites. The Mayor's list of pledges, and the facts of record in each instance, are as follows: 1, Completion of wees Bridge, (Signed bill authorizing bond issue election for Nov. 6, 1914, to authorize borrowing of 92,750,000 to complete the bridge. Advocated passage of bond is- sue. After bonds were authorized, signed bills appropriating money for comple- tion of bridge. Before his election, as Chairman of Republican City Commit- tee, he fought three similar bond issues. Bridge plans were drawn under Rolla Wells’ administration, and construction work was carried forward under the Kreismann administration until the orig- inal $3,500,000 appropriation was ex- hausted.) : „ Repeal of the Southern J'raction franchise. (He advocated the repeal of this fran- chise, and signed repeal bill, after the Municipal Assembly, following the ex- posure by the Post-Dispatch of tic con- tract of Jeptha D. Howe for a fee of $300,000 for procuring the franchise, had repealed the grant.) 3. Reduction of city water rates. (Tais reduction to wanufacturers, as an inducement for establishing plants in St. Louis, was authorized by the Board of Aldermen, upon petition of Business Men's League. Rates suspended by the State Public Service Commission.) 4. Collection of the mill tax. +» (This tax became effective Jan. 1, 1903, was attacked in courts by United Railways Co. and litigation was pending when Mayor Kiel was elected. All the machinery of the law department to enforce payment was in action long be- fore Kiel’: election. None of the mill tax accruing since 1910 has been col- lected. Decisions of Supreme Courts affirming judgments favorable to city handed down during his administration.) J. Grade crossing elimination. (Ordinances for separation of Mis- souri Pacific and Frisco grades at Tower Grove stations passed under Wells administration and construction work done under Kreismann adminis- tration. Work on Missouri Pacific sep- aration at Chouteau avenue started and being carried forward by Board of Pub- lice Service under present administra- tion, and negotiations are pending for elimination of Wabash and Rock Island grades west of Forest Park.) J. Adoption of new .city charter. (Advocated adoption of new city char- ter written by Board of Freéholders elected at the same time he was, and worked hard for it in campaign. Pledged himself not to accept increase in salary, provided for Mayor in new charter.) 7. Universal transfer system and extension of street car lines. (Universal street car transfers ordered by Circuit Judge Grimm on suit institut- ed by Law Department during Kreis- mann administration. Only street car extensions made are some short lines in vicinity of Bellefontaine Cemetery and Walnut Park.) 8. Better street car accOmmodations, (Under Public Service Commission act city has no jurisdiction whatever over public utilities. If service is better than when Mayor Kiel was inaugurated, it is due to the orders of the Public Service Commission.) 9. Larger and better 200. (The Mayor had advocated a larger and better zoo, and a new animal house has been built during his administration. At the last election the people author- ized a fraction of a mill tax for support of a larger zoo.) 20. Standard wages for city em- ployes. (This was provided by new charter adopted in June, 1914, and was put through by the Mavor last July. In- crease to taxpayers estimated by Comp- troller Player at $300,000 a@ year, and somewhat less sum by union labor rep- resentatives.) 11. Kight-hour work day and pref- erence to residents. (This was authorized by the new char- ter.) 14. Inerease of playgrounds in pub- lic parks, (The playgrounds policy of Dwight F. Davis, former Park Commissioner, has been carried forward in the acquisition and enlargement of grounds by the present Park Commissioner, appointed by Mayor Kiel.) 15. Measures for better sanitation and heautification of the city. (Mill Creek sewer, started under Kreismann administration, completed and celebrated with banquet under Kiel administration.) 16. Greater buildings. (Board of Education has entire super- vision of public school buildings, and has authorized their use for certain pub- lic purposes.) 17.

Jones Says Campaign“ of Education Is Being Con- ducted From New Vork. C. Norman Jones, secrétary and treasurer of the St. Louis Brewers’ As- sociation, told a Post-Dispatch reporter today how the brewers of the country are spending nearly $1,000,000 a year through the United States Brewers’ As- sociation, with headquarters in New Vork, in “a campaign of education” to defeat the aims of prohibition, or at least to bring about an act for compen- sation of the brewers if prohibitory measures are enacted. Jones said brewers contribute in duss to the New York association 1 cent a barrel on he output of each member, The output in the United States is about 60,000,000 barrels annually, he said, and from half to two-thirds of this output is represented by the national associa- tion. This would make the amount of dues paid the association approximately $400,000. 0 Besides the general revenue contrib- uted to the association, special assess- ments, or calls for special contribu- tions, are made several times a year, he said, which amount annually to as much as the regular dues. He declined to give any figure on what local mem- bers of the association had contributed last year through special contributions. How the Money Is Spent. The money is spent, Jones said, for lecturers, printing, distribution of liter- ature, and advertising. The campaign, according to Jones, has beer on for several years. The associa tion, said, was organized in 1862 as a social organization and at organization dues were placed at about one-fourth of 1 per cent a barrel Since 1900, the brewers, Jones said, have decided to make the organization à protective association, and about fil- teen years ago the first increase in the dues was made. In the last few years, he said, dues have been increased to the present amount and special asscssments hav become heavier. Members of the asso- clat‘on, he explained, are not bound tuo contribute on a call fur special funda, but a majority do so. Amounts needed are announced by the association's sec- retary, H. F. Fox, at 50 Union Square, New York. Puaipose of Organization. He said the purpose of the organiza- tion is to teach that beer, of low alco- holic percentage, is as much a food as a beverage, and that it is actually bene- ficial and in nowise harmful. The brew- ers want to impress on the public the value of beer as a temperance drink, he said, and he gave it as his opinon that the association is succeeding in this. We are not Knocking whisky or the distillers,’’ Jones declared. Let them take care of themselves. But we are not boosting whisky. We feel that if the Government is going to take away our business, which has been established as lopg as the United States, we should be and this is one of the ends toward which we are working. Jones said all of the St. Louis brew- ers, with the exception of two, or three of the smaller inde»endent ones, are members of the national association.

Thirty-six members of the Missouri Legislature accepted invitations of the Commercial Club of St. Louis to its din - ner at the St. Louis Club last night, at which Dr. Isidor Loeb, dean of the School of Commerce and Administration of the Missouri University, and Fred- erick N. Judson of St. Louis spoke on taxation, but only three members at- tended. The club, which had arranged for the legislators to be its guests from the time they left Jefferson City until their re- turn, received no explanation of their absence. The three who attended were Senator Conway Elder and Representa- tive E. J. Hogan of St. Louis, and Rep- resentative James N. Sharp of Bates County, who was here with a committee to gather information relative to the St. Louis — of Appeals and its docket. The failure of the other legislators to attend the dinner was due to me doubt as to the legality of their per- mitting anyone to pay their expenses for the trip from Jefferson City and return in the manner proposed by the Commercial Club. Tax Reforms iscussed. Dr. Loeb spoke on the necessity for enactment of a law creating a State tax commission to administer the laws) on taxation, especially with respect to the uniform and correct assessment of property. Judson emphasized the neces- sity for classification of property for taxation, and a mortgage recording ‘ax. Discussion by Louis P.

A New York jewelry clerk today in e Circuit Attorney’s office, said that = had picked Alexander P. Macauley out, among passers-by at Broadway and Locust street, as the man who passed two forged checks in New York Dec. 23. Macauley, a Toronto mining. broker, says he arrived at the Hamilton oHtel, St. Louis, on that day. He is under $10,- 000 bond, on charges of forgery and of being a fugitive, and a hearing on his extradition, which is requested by the New York authorities, is to be held be- fore Gov. Gardner in Jefferson City to- morrow. The checks passed in New York on the 23d were of the kind known to the police as Christmas Keough checks, and were for $200 each, and drawn on the Canadian Bank of Commerce, To- ronto. The checks were cashed in The- odore B. Starr's jewelry store, and the firm sent its clerk, Hammond Mueller, here to view Macauley. Mueller wa staken by policemen ,to the Broadway corner, at a time when the policemen know that Macauley would soon be passing, on his way from his la wyer's office. He was told to pick the man who passed the checks from among those who should pass. He wait- ed a considerable time, then saw Ma- cauley approaching, and at once said he was the man. No new charge against Macauley re- sulted from the jewelry clerk's identifi- cation. Circuit Attorney McDaniel said he would go to Jefferson City and urge the Governor to grant the extradition to New York. Macauley has employed a private de- tective agency to collect evidence in his behalf, to bé presented to the Governor to prove an alibi. He declares,.as he has done since his arrest, that the case is one of mistaken identity.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—Shareholders of che Bethlehem Steel Corporation vill be asked at a special meeting on Feb. 14 to ratify their directors’ fecommenda- tion to increase the common stock of the company from $15,000,000 to $60,000,- 000 to provide for a common stock divi- dend of 200 per cent. The directors also increased the com- mon stock dividend from 7% per cent to 10 per cent quarterly and offered the common stockholders the right to sub- scribe to $15,000,000 new stock at par on a basis of share for share -of their present holdings. This bonus was declared in Wall street today to be one of the most “‘mag- nificent melons’ ever distributed by an industrial corporation. The declaration of the bonus, Charles M. Schwab, chairman of the corpora- tion, explained, was made possible by the corporation's immense earnings in 1916, which amounted to $61,717,329, com- pared with $23,782,784 in 1915. $4—-TOLEDO & RETURN—$4 Jan. 26 & 27, via Clover Leaf Rout Good in sleeptng cars. 415 Olive st. ee N LINE'S SUIT fon $1.80 BRIDGE FARE IS UP Denositions Taken in Action Against Clerk Who Refuses to Pay More Than 5 Cents to Gross, River. Depositions are being taken today in a suit for $1.80 brought by the St. Louis Electric Terminal Co., operating the McKinley bridge, against Arthur Woer- heide, 186 Eliot avenue, a bookkeeper for the Commonwealth Steel Co. It is alleged Woerheide owes this amount to the company, he having refused to pay more than five cents of the 10-cent fare across the bridge, recently authorized by the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion. Woerhelde was arrested a few days ago when he'dropped five pennies into the fare box on a car between St. Louis and Granite City, and refused, as he had done on previous trips, to pay more. Judge Hogan in Police Pourt held that his/action whe not a disturbance of the peace, and discharged him. The papers in the suit Were filed in Justice Grass- muck’s court, 4108 Easton avenue. When the McKinley System obtained a franchise to enter St. Louis it agreed that the fare between this city and Granite City should be five cents.

Wither prepare the tonic at home or get from any drug store a 50 cent bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy,” ready to use; but listen, avoid preparations put up by drugg'sts, as they usually use too much sulphur which makes the hair sticky. Get ‘“Wyeth’s,” which can always be depended upon to darken beautifully and is the best thing known to remove dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. By using Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair. It does it so naturally and evenly — you moisten a sponge or soft brush, drawing this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time which requires but a few moments. Do this at night and by morning the gray hair disappears; after another appli- cation or two its natural color is re- stored and it beqomes glossy and lus- trous and you appear years younger. —ADV. | VIEWS IN ENGLAND the Daily Mail and other newspapers, ON ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT cellent, are impossible of realization at the present time. “America did nothing to prevent this !

MAN WHO ROBBED BANK PLEADS GUILTY, IS PAROLED Judge Cons ents to Unusual Arrange- ment Upon Application of Officials of Kansas Institution. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 4.—W, J. Caughey, 39 years old, who pleaded guilty to bank robbery yesterday, was Earl Barton, who was with Caughey.when, on Nov. 8, they entered the Security State Bank of Rosedale and after compelling Gus H. Ehlers, the president, to give them $1140,. locked him in the safe, will share Caughey’s good fortune. Caughey was taken before Judge W. H. McCamish in Kansas City, Kan., late vesterday afternoon. His attorney hand- ed the Judge an application for a pa- role. It was signed by Mayor Green, president of the First National Rink and several other prominent bank offi- cials, including those of the bank he had robbed. It requested that Caughey be paroled without sentence to his broth. er, Albert Caughey of Deshler, Neb., stating that $2000 in cash had been de- posited in a bank and that a bond would be given to the Court for this amount for the good behavior of the defendant. Judge McCamish consented to this un- usual arrangement. Ger the name of W. J. Crowdey. The money taken from the bank has been made good by his friends. Dr. Bartling Gets Divorce. Dr. Henry E.

I might add that our democracy is excessively puz- zled as to why President Wilson does not begin operations by the pacification of little Mexico. “We are all for the limitation of arma- ments. We had not much more of an army than the United States before the war and had offered the Germans to re- duce our invincible navy, without ef- fect. Our democracy is all for peace. But the horrors of Armenia, Servia and Lelgium and the enslavement of French and Belgian women now taking place des not encourage with us an atmos- phere such as that of the White House “Americans who have seen these gi guntie tragedies, talk a good deal about Lincoln. The presence of Americans 1i' the allied armies here, who know the facts, is some proof that the President's laudable attitude is not shared by those who are close to the sun.

It is peace without victory,’ the essential points of which as outlined by President Wilson are not especially American, but democratic—that is to say,. French, Fnglish, Italian as much as American. There is not an inde- pendent Democrat who has not already proclaimed and does not today entertain the same ideal as that professed by Fresident Wilson, but in the same way that the United States was obliged to wage war against secession and later the Cuban war, European democracy must today wage a war of resistance against Prussian pan-Germanism. How wil! it be possible to guarantee the future if we are declared incapable of taking care of the past? Who tore up the treaties of peace? Who violated Belgium; who attacked France: who is the aggressor of Europe? and who as such Owes reparation with darrages, the victim or the assassin?’ Caughey was arrested in St. Louis tn- —B — eee — — „ New Silk Dresses Attractively Priced ' Tomorrow at 513: 75 Crepe de Chines Silk Taffetas Combinations of These Materials With Georgette The daintiest styles imaginable and in yery extensive variety.

Norris Williams Fears Com- mittee’s Drastic Rule May Wreck Association. While the Reform and Literal fac- up their sleeves, preparatory to the expected ruction on Feb. 9, when the United States Lawn Tennis Associa- tion assembles, R. Norris Williams Il, present champion, has tossed in between the prospective combatants a compromise which may lessen the tension. 1 In a pamphlet signed ointly dy himself and George Wightman, and sent broadeast to all associations in the United States, Williams in sub- stance advocates that the proposed action to declare ineligible all ama- teürs engaged directly or indirectly in the sporting goods business be rendered non-retroactive. Admittin the statements of the Executive Committee that “any in- crease in the number of . sporting gods amateurs would be a grave mehace to the cleanliness of the game,” and that “the evil is thus far only in embryo,” Williams writes: “Now, if in fact iittle harm has resulted thus far, if there is only a FUTURE danger, we submit that such a danger may be easily and effectively guarded against by enacting an amateur rule, very strict in its terms, which should apply to ail players who enter into that (the sporting goods) business AFTER the pass- age of the rule.” Rule Not Retroactive. He suggests that the enactment take the form of an eighth act of dis- barment, as follows: “A person shall cease to be an amateur— AN y entering to the busi- ness of handling, buying or sell- ing tennis goods (for gain) AFT- ER the date of the passage of this rule, due notice having been given.” In his article Williams agrees with xecutive Committee that the — —— in the game of tainted ama- teurs is detrimental to it. He points to a European condition which exist- ed a few years ago, in which the sporting goods industry Mas con- ducted to a large extent by “ama- teur“ tennis players: and he 22. out that it took a hard “ot to eradi- cate the evil there. Het inks it bet- ter to forestall such a condition in his country by action such as the Executive Committee suggests. Two-Thirds Vote Needed. But he does not beleive that the two-thirds majority vote necessary to put through such legislation can be obtained. He fears the result of di- her rect clash on this point will be eit the associations of 4 — E condition in which will control the s proposition as a com- nding it on the ground jury has yet been done those now asso- oods interests n the absence Ye inst of- legislation a 58 the E only, permit ree the 2 offenders to go with- fight against the Executive Commit- to bar ALL those orting goods business „is being made by the Tennis Associa- adoption tee’s pro eres in 8 in the year 191 lin, ; Bundy} all for- n singles or doubles; Clarence Griffin and i of these are said to fated with sporting NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—The national open 1 be to * day.” ine * TENNIS CHAMPION HAS. ‘AMATEUR’ COMPROMISE tions of the tennis world are rolling 1 Big Schools and Football. iron success. The following table, prepared from recent figures, will correctly show this. The football rankings are off- hand and there is no pretense as to their having been carefully thought out. Nevertheless, they are based on last season’s general results and can be safely accepted as approximate. The table shows the number of stu- dents attending 20 leading universities last year, with their ranking in numeri- cal attendance and football compared. Football Students Student Rank.

HE reason why football standing does not more closely follow numerical attendance is multiple. In it are included one or all of the fol- lowing reasons for success, varying with the specific case: Selected athletetes, average material. Exceptional coaching and scout- ing systems. Bountiful athletic treasuries. Low percentage of co-eds, post graduates and other non- combatants. Undergraduate enthusiasm and support. Loose eligibility code. And others, too. All other things being equal, the larger schools should develop the better elevens; but with small institutions like West Point, whose players are selected men (pref- erably good players), or like Colgate with low eligibility standards, varia- tions are unavoidable. 4 Billy Miske Puts It Over.

But the trick resorted to by Billy Miske, in his recent bout with Jack. Dillon, was jutifiable and success- ful. It was also a horse on Jack, the One-time Giant Killer. The skin over Miske's left eve had been slashed in his bout with Charlie Weinert, making a slight wound, but on that was easily opened and which then bled freey. Knowing that Dillon would proceed to work on it the moment it be- came visible, Miske’s board of strat- egy sat on the case and finally de- cided to operate. They dolled up the bad eye: until it was scarcely noticeable; then turned in and painted a wound over the well eye, adding a strip of ad- Aesive tape along the eyebrow. This drew Dillon’s fire immediately and continuously. Throughout the fight his marksmanship was fairly effective, as was shown by the fact that he knocked off the tape three times, so dispatches read. But the eye, being sound, was not damaged: whereas, had the bad eye been made a target, Miske would have been streaming blood, influencing the pub- lic’s view and Miske's ability. to do his best. The incident probably was funny to everybody but Dillon, whose sense of humor may have been ruined by the popular verdict against him. = * Sample Fight Stuff.

At times one is obliged to take some- body’s word for things pugilistic: but you can never afford to leave it to the fighter’s manager or his boosters. Scarcely a day passes in which the from } Sporting desk fails to receive a wire telling how this or that fighter won easily, when the statement is utterly at variance with authentic reports of the bout. One of the most recent of these was a wire from Dillon’s representative to the effect that he had Miske “almost out. Miske WON, was practically the unanimous opinion of ringsiders. In a New York paper is a report to the effect that Jack Kearns 1 ing Joe Bonds, on the strength of his having won a popular victory over Carl orris recently.” That fight took place at Memphis.

KABAKOFF WINS FROM BURNS BY dg MARGIN St. Louis Bantamweght Again Proves His Superiority to Dallas Opponent. Although Bobby Burns of Dallas, Tex., put up a determined fight, Harry Kab- akoff, the St. Louis bantamweight, out- classed him at all points, last night, and won by a wide margin. The boys were fighting their third en- gagement, the last previous having end- ed unsatisfactorily when Burns quit in the middle of the bout, claiming a foul which the referee did not allow. Kabakoff dropped Burns twice in that bout; but last ni although he out- did his tate rival both at long range and close fighting, and had him very tired on more than one occa- sion, he failed to send him to the can- vas.

The suspension of Brooklyn“ Tommy Sullivan and the Future City Athletic Club by the St, Louis Box- ing Commission may result from the action of Sullivan, manager of the club, in refereeing the Burns-Kabea- koff bout last night after having been refused a card by the local board of control. Robert W. Hall, attorney, one of the commissioners, told the Post-Dispatch this morning that the suspension of Sul- livan and his organization for violating commission rules would take place if the allied promoters of the city would lend their backing. He said: The Future City A. C., which should be the stanchest supporter of the com- mission, has been the most persistent violator of its rules. It has been an obstacle to progress and has declined to follow the code now being strictly observed by the South Broadway and the Stag clubs. It's a pleasure to attend shows at those organizations, in con- trast to those of the Future City A. C. “Sullivan had ample time to arrange for an official, following his notifica- tion to Referee Harry Sharpe that, for financial reasons, his services would be 1 Sullivan needs disciplin- ng. Westerman’s Resignation In. “Dr. Westerman’s resigaation, sent in Monday, has not yet been acted on. We hope to induce him to remain in line. If he declines, a meeting of promoters will be called and a third member of the NS age 2 will be chosen to replace m. 8 However, a third member will not be needed to act on Sullivan’s case, as two constitute a quorum,” Dr. C. M. estermann, chairman of the commission, when asked by the Post-Dispatch as to his resignation from the board, stated that he positively would not withdraw it. “T will not reconsider. I have had enough of this game. When they drop a man like Harry Sha „ who has served so long and so disinterestedly, and who has even worked without y for the Future City A. C. when that club was in bad, I don’t want anything to do with fight promoters.“ Sullivan Drops Sharpe. The snarl followed a notification sent to Harry Sharpe by the Future City Athletic Club that his services as offi- cial would no longer be required. The club failed to provide a substitute for last night’s show, and when Sullivan applied for permission he was ref a card on the ground that the notifica- tion was insufficient. ; When Sharpe entered the club build- ing last night he was requested by Sul- livan to officiate, but declined. There- upon Sullivan, without a card, acted as third man. Sullivan’s: explanation of his reason for dropping Sharpe is as follows: ‘Business has been so bad that I really needed the money. I hated to let Harry out, but it was a matter of cash. That fee is the difference between profit and loss with me. “T have received a $100 a month in- crease in my rent. In addition my weekly bill for tickets has been boosted to double the former price. „At that, I sent a man around to find Sharpe, to ask him to referee and forget the letter dropping him as offi- cial, but he failed to find Harry. At the club I again asked Harry to act, but he refused. I went on because there was no one else present authorized to officiate. “T think the world of Sharpe, and would never have sent the letter had I realized the result. I would rather stand the loss.“ The Boxing Commission is a_ vol- lized, but the police Its members are chosen by delegates from the seven pugilistic clubs operating in tLis city. Susrension of the F.

Sharpe’s honesty in the ring made him a favorite of the Police Depart- ment and it was virtually on his representations to the police that the dead vame of boxing was revived in this city. C.

By RICHARD L. STOKES S if to make amends in brimming measure for past infelicities in the choice of soloists,, the Pageant by presenting as its principal singer Clarence Whitehill, foremost American basso and famous exponent of Wag- nerian roles not only at the Metropolitan and Chicago Opera, but also in Bay- reuth, holy of holies of the cult of Wag- ner. To his celebrated characterization of the majestic Wotan, Whitehill added an- other role, worthy to stand beside it, in the passionate, sanguinary figure of the harshest of the Hebrew prophets, Elijah. His vehicle was Mendelssohn’s thrilling oratorio, “Elij@h,’’ chosen by the Choral Society as the offering of its second con- cert of the season. Challenging the traditions of oratorio, which counsel dignity and repose of style, Whitehill had the daring to draw lavishly upon the dramatic resources of opera, with the result that his Elijah became a personage of the latter rather than of the formier art, despite the ab- sence of action, costume and scenery. By means of his voice alone, unaided by these accessories of the stage, he was able to afford so moving a portrayal of the part as almost to compel the illusion that one was present at an operatic per- formance. This effect was especially convincing in what is probably the most theatrical episode in the Old Testament—when the prophet, in the spacious, crowded set- ting of Mount Carmel, defies the priests of Baal to pit their deity against Je- hovah in the test of sending down fire from the heavens. Range of Emotional Expression. Outrageous mockery snarled in White- hill’s voice as Elijah—in one of the Bible’s rare instances of grim, sarcastic humor—ironieally gave encouragement to his desperate rivals, urging them to call more loudly upon Baal, for per- adventure he sleepeth.“ Then, in a mo- ment, the mood changed to calm, su- perb confidence, as the prophet adjured Jehovah to let it be known that thou art God.“ And finally, when, in an- flames showered down from the sky, the thaumaturgist to sublime heights of wrath and ven- geance, thundering out his command and slain, and: that not one be permit- ted to escape. ä Yet this vindictive zealot was capa- ble of softer moments, lke flowers nestling in the crannies of some somber peak. Tenderest compassion breathed in his phrase, “Give me.thy son,” spo- ken to the wiaow whose boy was dead. well to his friend, Obadiah. And at last, all of his miracles apparently gone for nought, and he himself driven into the wilderness by the hatred of Jeze- bel, Elijah was not merely a pathetic but a profoundly tragic figure as he voiced the cry: “It is enough, O Lord; now take away my life.“ ‘role, Whitehill brought a commanding with huskiness from the wear and tear to the promptings of his emotions. If any censure of his interpretation may de ventured, it was that occasionally he For the depiction of this awesome stage presence, veteran experience in opera and a voice powerful, sonorous and musical, though at times clouded of many years, and still flexibly docile overdid the violence of the part, so that his utterances were no longer song, but turbulent oratory. He won peals of ap- plause from the big audience. Fischer’s Metronomic Beat. Next to him in the favor of the gath- ering came Mrs. Oscar Bollman, St. Louis contralto, who sang in pleasing voice the numbers allotted to her. Miss Lucille Stevenson, Chicago soprano, gave an uneven performance. Her ex- pression in the widow's duet with Elijah was at moments touching, but her sing- ing of the oratorio’s best soprano aria, Hear Ye, Israel,“ was a distinct disap- Ps ‘4 - ; Ss 1 * > if a ie : — eee ee “se ee * 2 1 peer — g — ——— me ee 3 — . 1 > ; 9 — * avs 4 © 1 > — ° . .

Alger Roe- wade, boy soprano of Christ Church Ca- thedral, piped in a not unpleasing treble the few passages of the Youth. The work of the big chorus of 200 mixed voices was probably.the best it has so far done, though room for im- provement still remains. Fervor there was in plenty, and an impressive volume of sound was created when the chorus was reinforced by the Symphony Orches- tra and the Odeon organ. Frederick Fischer, the director, proved able at times to obtain variety in dy- namics, but rarely in tempo. For min- utes at a time his beat ran with the rigid regularity of the ticking of a clock, so that the chorub Jost many opportuni- ties for elasticity. Mrs. Bollman was the most conspicuous victim of this met- ronomic monotony. The oratorio’s pop- partly spoiled for her because, when in the interest of expression she wished very properly to introduce a ritard, Fischer drove the orchestra on at an un- deviating pace, with the result that twice it had to halt and wait until she caught up.

It would be adopted in humiliation, | under duress at an intolerable sacrifice and would leave a sting, a resentment, a bitter memory upon which terms of peace would rest, not permanently, but only as upon quicksand.” The foundation of lasting peace is, as the Presi- dent says, “equality of rights.” All the nations must stand on the same ground of assured sOv- erignty and right free from conquest and aggres- sion with their political combinations based upon the consent of the governed. It is an interesting coincidence that the Post- Dispatch, protesting against the reactionary idea of obtaining peace by the division of Europe on racial lines, embodied briefly in the leader of the in his message delivered Monday. We said: What Europe needs is liberty for nattons and peoples—the right of determining how they shall be governed and how they shall live. The kind of protection the weaker nations and peoples of Europe need is protection from conquest, aggression and the reign of force, regardless of races. Rid Europe of con- quest ‘and its terror, of privilege and its op- pressions, of arbitrary rule by divine right and hereditary privileges, and we shall have a peaceful, progressive and contented Europe. A league to prevent national aggression and government by force will assure perma- nent peace. The proposed League +: Enforce Peace is the first step in the way of pre- venting injustice and aggression. The rest is the task of enligutered men of all nations. The test of the President's proposal is truth. Who can gainsay the statement that the sole basis of permanent peace is justice, liberty and equali- ty? Where has there ever been peace except for a season—peace enforcd by might—without these fundamental conditions? The President does not mean that neither side in the war shall not win a victory over the mili- tary forces of the other. He means that neither side ought to impose the bitter terms of victory on the other, no matter how great its success. In the Civil War, when Lincoln resented interference to prevent a Northern victory, a victor’s terms was not imposed upon the South by the North. The Southern soldiers returned to their homes and the Southern states were received back into the Union. Lincoln was the opponent of harsh terms. f Peace without the terms of victory applies to both groups of belligerents. The central Powers must relinquish conquered territory and abandon schemes of aggrandizement as the entente Powers must abandon the expectation of finding perma- ment peace in their crushing and stripping of the central allies. Both sides must be willing to lay aside greed and conquering ambition and go into conference ready to accept just terms and to guar- antee peace on a basis of right. If either side is not willing to do that it does not want justice with permanent peace, but advantage; it does not want a guarantee of right, but the power of might to en- force its will. In that event the United States is out of the com- pact. The President has stated our terms. We will stand with the nations on a platform of na- tional rights and freedom of the seas—we wil] agree to a league tounded on principles of justice and liberty for all natlons, but we cannot and will not join in a league to enforce wrong and oppres- sion or to gain advantage tor one nation or group of nations over others.- | Mr. Wilson’s proposal applies the “acid test” to the peace terms of all belligerents. None but richteous purposed can stand the test. Greed and hypocrisy will be revealed in the light of this simple. proposition that nations deal justly with each other and guarantee righteous peace. It is gratifying to note that foreign newspapers and leaders of opinion recognize the splendor and value of the President’s idea and realize the strength of his appeal to the heart and imagination of the people of Europe. The Manchester Guard- jan does not doubt its practicality as a well thought out and justly. framed scheme” which will be received dy the peoples everywhere, we cannot doubt, joyfully; by men of good ‘will and enlight- enment everywhere not less joyfully.” It thinks that if the people receive it gladly the governments will find a path of safety.

He told the legislators: some sound truths. jority could not afford to pad the payroll. Clerks in ample numbers are already proyided for, he declared. In consequence of his effort, the sup- porters of the resolution were glad to withdraw it to the shelter of a committee room. Mr. Watson is to be congratulated on preventing an extension of the scandal, but a curiosity to know just where he draws the line is natural. If employes to the number of 362 would pad the with 356? If the Democratic majority cannot af- ford to stand for an addition of about one-thirtieth of an employ to each member of the Legislature, how does it happen that that majority has already stood for an average of nearly six employes for each Senator and something over ohe for each Representative, or an average of 21-17 n for the whole number of legislators? If he could check the graft when it threatened the State with the burden of 362 employes, could he not have checked it long before it reached the monstrous 356 total and confined it to the number normally employed, as thé Post-Dispatch ‘has showed, in other states, say ‘from.50 to 75 for the both houses? 7 81888 i i Dr. Grayson is a bitter pill for various naval aspirants. * 000 . A JOHN BULL JOKE. His Excellency, Hadji Alad, President of the Turkish Parliament, smiled broadly when he read the recent letten that Foreign Secretary Balfour of Great Britain addressed to President Wilson. That part which dealt with the intention of the en- pealed to His Excellency as a great joke. He could scarcely control his risibilities as he mur- mured: “Gallipoli, Dardanelles, Kutel-Amara.” - Evidently the Turkish gentleman's theory of ‘British humor is not the one which is conventional in America. If he asked us, we should say that our idea of the deadliest thing in the world is a British joke. The only time we really get un- easy about a Briton is when he is spoofing us, A jest with him is no light, spontaneous, fanciful thing, but is something to be carefully planned, solid and substantial. Its point—no, that is hard- ly the right word—its purpose is to impress the jokee with the soft delicacy of a well-aimed brick. If*one misses fire, the thrower is not discouraged, but placidly starts in to heave another. It is this imperturbable persistence that gets upon hair- trigger American nerves. | His Excellency would do well to remember that J. Bull is never so serious as when he is humorous. - = = * i i NEVERTHELESS MISS WINTER SINGS. There are times when we St. Louisans look sad- ly upon the map and yearn for some magician’s wand that would ena! le us to change the inter- vening space which separates Chicago from our home town. Often we'd like to be nearer so we could be more neighborly. Sometimes we turn from mournful contemplation of the spot marked Chicago, with ,glad relief to the one marked ~4 Brownsville, Tex. Jubt at present we'd like to move Chicago down, say close enoug. for us to go to church there on Sunday. We know well, too, what church we should attend. It would be the Methodist Church under the ministry of the Rev. J. P. Brushing- N. m, in the South Park district. like to hear his choir. One of the singers is Miss Dale Winter. She sings at che church on Sunday for the glory of the cause. She sings at a downtown cabaret on week nights for the amusement of the populace. She does both jobs well. Everybody in the congregation *njoyed her singing until certain of the congealed vestals and antique brethren in Zion learned about the ab- aret. They protested to the, pastor that it was un- seemly. Doubtless some of them suggested the ancient dilemma of those who try to, serve both God and mammon—mammon in this case meaning the cabaret. : The Rev. Dr. Brushingham refused to lizten to them. The chances are that the reverend gentle man knew good singing when ‘he heard it. At any rate, hé told Miss Winter not to let the criti cism bother her. » Down here in St. Louis we know of a let of choirs that would be improved by the addition of a few cabaret singers and a lot of cabarets that would be enlivened by a few choir singers. We can but hope, if the matter ever comes to an issue, that we have a few pastors as broad-minded as the Rev. Mr. Brushingham. i, A s ~~ Fr — HOLT COUNTY’S BID. 7 Holt County, Missouri, is in a remote corner of the State. From the clay bluffs of its principal railroad town one can look off across the Missouri River and observe a depression in the ground which will be pointed out to him as the place where Kansas and Nebraska meet. Its county seat is a quiet, pleasant village, off the main lines of traffic. Its principal products are corn, apples and Republican votes. It sits serene upon its hills —and it has an abundance of hills to sit upon. Yet because Holt County is so far’ from us ahd we hear comparatively little of it down this way. let it not be thought that Holt is out of touch with the trend of affairs in the rest of the com- monwealth. On the contrary, it is keeping step. Its representative in the lower house at Jefferson City has just offered a bill which proposes to dou- ble the pay of our legislators. One doesn’t know how much consideration Heit can expect from a Democratic General Assembly its po- eet —but this measure ought to do much to close aay breaches there may be. ‘In these gladsome days of a depleted treasury; a growing deficit, a wor- out financial system, when everybody is 11 economy and reform and nobody is it is refreshing to see Holt County’s repre! tive marching shoulder to shoulder with his ‘pay- roll-padding brethren from ot er counties in an n err upon the State’s He said that the Democratic man- pay rolls, aren't they already pretty well padded N tente Powers to drive Turkey out of Europe ap- ESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 2 * a . —— ae 2 e cr 3 EP; a Ti 2 . 1 . * . 4 7 a 2 x 1 .

To begin with, that is an impos- sibility, and the time wasted on it is leve’s labor lost. Age, and work, and scrrow are bound to set their seal upon a woman and rob her of her beauty, and it by the time she is 4 years old, and has lived with a mah for 2 years, he doesn’t love her for something better than her looks, he doesn’t love her ati all. ou can’t hold a man with a corset String, and there's no use trying. Still more fallacious is the silly theory that to keep a husband a wife must keep him entertained, The idea that a man wants his home turned into a vaude- ville performance, with his wife doing stunt after stunt to amuse and divert him, must have originated in the brain of a paranoiac. Can you really think of anything more unendurable, and more caldulated to drive a man away from his own fire- than to fing there a wife who would first tear off a line of entértain- ing conversation, in which she would Jump nimbly from topic to topic: who wold then execute a piece on the piang, ‘warble a ditty, or perhaps even recite, or do a negro or Irish fmpersonation? Have you ever visited at a place where your hostess felt it her duty to enter- tain you? Where something was doing every minute, and you were talked to until you were ready to shriek with boredom? That will give you some idea of what an affliction a wife would be if she followed out these oracles’ ad- vice to amuse ‘her husband after his hard day’s work is over. The beauty about a home, and tha one thing that makes it worth working for, is that it’s a place where you can relax, where you can take off your good clothes, and your company manners, and drop your role of being a brilliant enter- tainer, or a fascinated listener, and neither have to talk, nor be talked to, nor look beautiful, nor well gotten up. The truth is that the only recipe that works for keeping a husband is to keep him, guessing. ‘The most devoted hus- bands, and the husbands who stay lov- ers to the end of the chapter, are those who spend theif lives trying to retain their wives’ affections and to please their wives, not the ones whose wives are making door mats and hot-air ma- chines of themselves. Model wives never have model husbands, but the women who are uncertain, coy and hard to please always have some man who is breaking his neck attempting the job. Man is still the huntsman, even after he getse married, and the problem of woman is how to keep him under the impression that she is still a bird on the wing, while she is, in reality, a hen on the nest. If any Solomon can solve that problem, he can tell us how to keep a husband. Not otherwise. (Copyright, 1917, 2 ne Wheeler a, — * 3 1 *. * months, accordin X. P.

The disease is extremely contagious. Germs are thrown off in the secretions from the. mouth, and nose, and are found in the membrane. The germ which grows in the membrane forms one of the most powerful poisons known, and the absorption of this by the general sys- tem produces general illness and death. Occasionally, the membrane forms only in the larynx, causing what used to be called membranous croup, but what is now known to be laryngeal diphtheria. I: is much more fatal than the other types of the disease because the mem. brane is apt to slough off and produce asphyxiation. A positive diagnosis of diphtheria is made quickly by rubbing a cotton swab over the edge of the membrane. At the laboratory this is allowed to grow over night on solidified blood serum. The appearance of the germs is very charac- teristic. Physicians should not walt for this diagnosis if. the membrane is ap- parent in the throat and the symptoms of the chjld indicate the disease. One of the greatest medical discov- eries of the age was made independentiy by Behring in Germany and Roux in Paris—diphtheria antitoxin. This is an almost certain cure of the disease.

Miss Margaret Slattery, Who Lectures Them and Tells Them to * Up to It. * By NIXON GREELEY-SMITH. tt OME girls must make a living, S but all girls must make a life. Whether a girl is a success or not depends on what kind of life she makes for herself and those around her. I am an optimist about the girls of today. Every generation has its special failings, and there are certainly more girls in 1917 who look upon life as a gay, thoughtless dance than there were in the days of the Pilgrim Fathers. But the Pilgrim Fathers, with all their vir- tues, must have been pretty hard to live with. I find a pathetic eagerness among girls, whether they work in/fac- tories or are daughters of millionaires, to find an ideal of life. All are anxious to take the forward step which will make them better members of society once that step is pointed out to them.“ Miss Margaret Slattery, who uttered this vote of confidence in the young women of today, talked to 2500 girls be- tween the ages of 15 and 25 in Calvary Baptist Church in New York and asked them to look ahead o years to the time when they will be women of 2% and and determine what kind of women they are going to be then. Miss Slattery is a writer and an educator of Boston, a member of the Massachusetts State Board of Education, and she is known ir church circlés throughout the country as “the preacher to girls.” Miss Slat- tery is a slender, silver-haired woman, with the eyes and skin of youth, and a manner of unusual sweetness and charm. Bringing the Ideal Nearer by Lead- ing Correct Lives. “I. believe it is every woman's duty so to live that she will bring at least N years nearer the time when the high- est human ideals will be realized in the life about us—when, for instance, there will not be eight saloons to one hospital station in the streets of cities and when the frightful conditions of to- day will have ceased to exist—when Greed and Need no longer stand grin- ning at each other in mutual hatred and contempt, as they do today. J told the girls in Calvary Baptist Church,” Miss Slattery added, that they will fulfill the highest destiny of woman if they become wives and moth- ers in the next 10 years. But I told them, too, that having a child does not make a woman a mother, and that the worst failure a woman can make is to fail as a mother. To be a mother she Seek an Ideal and Live e a he or she becomes a contribution to the welfare of society. It is certainly not a forward step to add to the world’s mental and moral defectives. It is what A woman makes of her child that is the glory of motherhood. If a business man fails he does not criticise his prod- uct, but himself. So we should not crit- icise our boys and girls, the product of our methods. “Some girls think of life as a dance. They are the daughters of Gayety who would like to dance forever and never grow a day older, thoughtless little heathens, until someone gives them a serious ideal. Then how eager they are to” grasp it. Then there are the girls who make their own living, who work, rush home to dinner and out again to the movies, with no thought and no preparation for future wifehood and motherhood. I knew a girl of this type in Boston who, after earning $12 a week! for a few years, married a young fellow making $20. She did not know how to buy food or to cook economically and had so little idea of housework that it took her all day to make her home pre- sentable. Two children came. “She rushed in upon me one day and exclaimed that she hated her husband, that she was a slave and would not stand it any ſonger. She said her hus- band gave her only half his salary, $10. Later I talked with the man. He ad- mitted that for two months he had held out half his money for himself. ‘I nev- er get anything to eat at Home and I have to live,’ he said. Here were two young people, neither of them evil, whose happiness was ruined because the girl had had no preparation for home- making and motherhood. There are thousands just like her. “I believe, of course, that young men should be prepared for fatherhood, and I think every self-supporting girl should give two evenings a week to acquiring some knowledge of the domestic arts. Under present conditions girls must go to work too soon to learn these things at home, and they should spare two out of seven evenings to qualifying as the homemakers of the next 10 years. How the Rich Girl May Improve Herself. “Rich girls need preparation for homemaking along different lines.“ Miss Slattery added. Generally speak- ing, they are taught how to direct the machinery of a household, but in some cases they have not the ideal of home as a place to live in. They rush from “The Bayer Cross— Your Guarantee of Purity.“ * — must rear and guide her child so that Counterfeits may be 5 debeerous. There is only ONE genuine Aspirin.

Now, men of wealth are under & severe strain all day because of the responsibility of their tasks and they cannot be dragged out night after night without paying dearly in health and nerves. Someone asked me not long ago if I had ever noticed the frightful number of widows in fashionable churches all over the United States. I looked about me and I did ‘notice it. These women were made widows because so many men of wealth die suddenly of heart failure in the forties. They can’t stand the double pace they are forced to lead.“ My conversation with the preacher to girls took place on a suburban train which Miss Slattery had taken to ful- fill a second éngagemént at Calvary Baptist Church last night. It was this fact which led me to remark that the social life in the suburbs of New York is more hectic than in the city itself. “Yes,” Miss Slattery agreed prompt- ly, the suburban problem all over the CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Year: Always bears the.

Mrs. Forsee was born at Florissant, St. Louis County, Mo., where she and Dr. Forsee were married in 1832. They came to St. Joseph in 1856. Her father was Joel L. Musick, prominent in poli- tics in St. Louis County.
