Tomorrow Night Are Fa- vorable. All allen enemies—that Is, all German subjects—living in St. Louis, will be re- quired to remove at once from any place fof residence within a half mile of any military station or factory for the manu- facture of army or navy supplies. This was announced today by the Unit- ed States District Attorney’s office, which is charged with the enforcement of President Wilson’s recent proclama- tion regarding allen enemies, District Attorney Oliver said notices to move had been sent, thus far, to about 20 families living in places within the forbidden distance of military sta- tions. An order was sent out this morning, through the city police, that all alien enemies must turn over to the police, before tomorrow night, any firearms, weapon, munition or explosives which they may have. Police captains were ordered to spread this notice, and to an- nounce that those who fail to turn in such weapons, and are later found to have them in their possession, will be — with by the Federal authorities. President’s Order The two paragraphs of the. President's order, under which the Federal officials and the police are acting in regard to places of residence and weapons, are: An alien enemy shall not approach or be found within one-half mile of any federal or state fort, camp, ar- senal, aircraft station, Government or naval vessel, navy yard, factory or workshop for the manufacture of munitions of war or of any products for the use of the army or navy. An allen enemy shall not have in his possession at any time or place any firearms, weapons or implements IN CHARGE, No Effort to Limit Speeches.

He said the requirements of the President’s order would apply to German-born men who have obtained their first naturalization papers, although such men are permit- ted to vote, and have been held liable to be drafted for service in the United States army. Oliver said such men were not full citizens. Application of Order. The order as to factories for the man- ufacture of supplies for the army or navy may in time be extended to in- clude shoe factories and food product establishments, and in this case a large part of the city would be closed to alien enemies as a place of residence. It seems to be the purpose, at pres- ent, to enforce the law only as to resi- dence within a half-mile of military sta- tions. These include the Government Arsenal at Second and Arsenal streets, the First Regiment and Battery A, ar- mories on Grand avenue, the Troop B armory south of Forest Park and the Naval Reserve station at the river and East Ggpnd avenue. At the naturalization office in the Federal building, it was said that in- dustrial concerns were sending their employes for naturalization in larger numbers than they can be handled. It was suggested that appointments should be made, by telephone, for the appearance of such men, so as to avoid waste of their time. — RED CROSS TRAINING CLASS (More Than Half Are Wage Earners _ Who Will Take Night Course at F.

Manufacturing Co., at Wells- ton, were discharged last night, accord- ing to information received by Federal officials, for refusal to become nat- uralized citizens of the United States. The Curtis company is engaged in the manufacture of war munitions and re- cently received Government § instruc- tions, which also were sent to other munitions manufacturers and packing houses, to require all alien employes to become naturalized, and to discharge those who refused. The company sent more than 100 men to the naturalization office in the Fed- eral Building today to take out their first papers. Employes of many other firms appeared for the same purpose. M R. Bevington, chief naturalization officer, said his office was swamped with business and that it would be im- possible for him to handle all the ap- plications immediately. He suggested that employers communicate with him and arrange a time for sending their employes. The St. Louis Independent Packing Co., has at the request of the Gov- ernment furnished to it a list of the names of all aliens in the employ of the company, and has informed the aliens that they may take time from work to make application for nat- uralization papers without expense to themselves. The large packing companies in East St. Louis, Chicago and other placés have sent similar lists to Government officers, and have issued similar or- ders to their alien employes.

State's Chief Witness Admits Studying Transcripts of His Previous Testimony. Herbert O. Baker, confessed arson moter, on cross-examination today at the arson conspiracy trial of Julius R. Bersch, Harold G. Gilmore and Harry C. Imel, denied that he told Imel at Cicardi’s that he had pleaded guilty and implicated ofhers to save his own hide“ and keep out of the penitentiary. Bersch is a fire insurance agent. Gil- more is former proprietor of the Gil- more-Bonfig Decorating Co., 4455 Olive street, and Imel was associated with him. Baker was an insurance broker, with a desk in Bersch’s office. The decorating establishment was burned July 24, 1915, and the three are charged with arson in the third degree. Of the insurance, a total of $32,500, nothing has thus far been paid. Bakér was on the stand throughout the forenoon session. He was asked whether he took home with him last night transcripts of the testimony which he had given at a previous trial and be- fore the grand jury. He said he had. Can't you remember things inde- pendent of rehearsing them” asked Thomas, T. Fauntleroy, counsel for the defense. * Well, I want ta get things right,“ replied Baker: Denies Immunity Promise. Baker denied that he met Imel in the Pierce Building five weeks ago and in- | formed him that E. W. Bentley, an in- surance agent, would ‘fix up“ Imel if he would come across’’ as Baker had done. J didn't want Bentley to get Ime? in his clutches the way he got me,” said Baker. I spoke to Imel about Bentley, but advised him to have noth- ing to do with Bentley.“ Baker said Bentley had promised te fix things up for him and to get him a job with the Crane agency. He Hed to mo and I wouldn't have anything more to do with him,” said Baker. Baker was asked whether he had not made a false statement to the police the night he was arrested. “Well,” he said, “my father was more scared than I was and he advised me to sign anything they asked me to sign.“ He denied that he had said to At- torney Fauntleroy at the Planters that he would like to see Roy B. M. Tidd, accused of arson in connection with another fire, and tell Tidd he had made a false statement about him. “I didn’t know anything about that fire. They wanted me to make a statement about it and about 15 or 20 other fires, but I wouldn't.“ EN denied also that Special Prose- cutor Harvey last nigtt told him that if he didn’t testify “right” he would go to the penitentiary. “He hardly spoke to me last night,” said Baker, “but he told me something of that kind about a year ago.“ In his direct testimony, Baker told a. clear story of the plot which, he de- clared, was made to burn the decorating establishinent, and of the way in which it was carried out by the use of incen- diary materials and by the employment of torches,“ or active incendiaries. In his cross-examination, Baker yield- ed somewhat to the insistence of at- torneys for the defense, and made some admissions which will probably be used in an effort to overthrow his testi- mony. Arranged for Conference. Baker, after telling of his acquaint- Al. ce with the three defendants, said that in December, 1914,-he was at the Gilmore-Bonfig place, the firm then being Wright & Gilmore, and that Gil- more remarked that he might have a fire. Baker said he reported this re- mark to Bersch, with the idea that Bersch might wish to cancel insurance he had placed on the Gilmore proper- ty. Instead, he said, Bersch suggested that they could all make some money, and arranged a conference with Gil- more. At this meeting, he said, he and Gil- more and Bersch agreed that ‘‘there ought to be a flre, and that Gilmore talked of having his insurance in- creased. Bersch, according to Baker, said, I'll send some men out who will give you a good fire.” Baker said he did not know who the men were, and that when he asked Bersch, the latter indicated that it was none of his busi- ness. He told of later conferences with Gil- more, and said Gilmore said he was havi trouble with his partner, Wal- ter Wright, and that it would be better to wait for a reorganization. Later, he said, Gilmore notified him that Wright was out of the firm. “Then all was agreeable,” Baker said, “and we discussed several dates for the fire, and finally Saturday afternoon, July 24, was fixed as the time. I met Bersch at noon, in a saloon on Fourth street and Bersch told me to telephone to Gilmore that two men would be out that afternoon to give him a good fire. I did so, and Gimere said it was all right. J went out and looked at the 420 about 6:30 that afternoon; after the fire. I saw Imel, and he told me that he and . closed up the place at noon, In for them. | | jeweled appearance and fondness for of his death, although for a long period $220,000 to the institution, Merchant Ship Sinking After: U-Boat Torpedoed f.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Yost-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 13,—James_ B. (Diamond Jim) Brady, best known to the great white way because of his be- theatrical first nights, died today at the Hotel Shelburne, Atlantic City, follow- ing an illness that began last October. Angina pectoris was the direct cause Brady ha@ suffered from stomach trou- ble. In 1912 after having a new stomach “installed,” as he put it, in Johns Hop- kins’ Hospital, Baltimore, he gave subsequently adding to this sum. N The financial district, where Brady made his money in the daytime, and Broadway, where he spent it lavishly at night, have long been prepared „or his passing, intimate friends knowing for several months that he was not go- ing to get better. His death caused genuine regret among those who knew him best, because beneath his rather gruff exterior and love of gem display. he carried a sympathy that found an outlet in many benefactions. “Diamond Jim” has cashed many a Broadway hard-luck story, according to his friends. More or less the butt of paragraphers and stage jokes for many years because of his highly illustrated style of dress, the general public knew Brady only as a man who plastered himself with diamonds and spent much of his time in the front row in tho orchestra. Only a small percentage of those who read these tales of his Broadway ap- pearances know that he was one of the shrewdest business men in the country, the controlling factor in the Standard Steel Car Co, director in a dozen big corporations and banks, the possessor of a fortune estimated at about 38,000, 000, every penny of it earned by a boy who had small opportunity and who worked 18 hours a Gay after he got WIVES MAY ACT AS BARMAIDS * About Women in Saleons. j The rule prohibiting barmaids been modified by the Excise Commis- sioner to the extent that wives of sa- succeed Emil N.

RUSH TO ‘SLACKERS’ Recorder of Deeds Points to Number of Men Between 19 and 25 Getting Licenses. Recorder of Deeds Joy said to a Post- Dispatch reporter today he was con- vinced that many of the young men be- tween the ages of 19 and 2% who are obtaining marriage licenses in an un- precedented rush at the city hall are „Slackers,“ seeking to escape possible conscription, it being the intention to exempt men having dependents. Of the 330 marriage licenses issued in nine days—the office period between April 2-12, inclusive—185 have been ob- tained by men 19 to 2% years old. This is 66 per cent of the licenses issued. When the unusual marriage license rush started last Monday Recorder Joy regarded it as being due to the expira- tion of Lent, during which Catholics ard Episcopalians usually refrain from marrying. But the steady increase in applications, especially by so many young men, has caused the Recorder to alter his opinion, Even the unlucky combination of Friday, the Thirteenth,” had ‘little ef- fect today on applicants for marriage li- censes. In the first two hours the office was open this morning. 12 licenses were issued. Friday normally is a dull day for the marriage license clerk, the av- erage number of licenses issued being seven. And when Friday falis on the thirteenth day of the month usually only one or two licenses are issued. A comparison of the records for April 2-12, in 1915 and 1916, Shows that of % licenses fssued in that period last year 33 licenses, or 34 per cent of the total, were issued to men between the ages of 19 and : in 1915, of 133 Moenses is- | sued, 51 licenses, or 51 per cent, were obtained by men between the ages of 19 and .

WITH THE BRITISH ARMTES IN ‘FRANCE, April 13, vis © London, April 13, 2 p. m—Under improved weather conditions there was stiff fighting along virtually two-thirds of the British front today. In addition Couture the British are making pro- gress farther north. Another mile of the Hindenburg line southeast of Arras has been taken, as shown by last night’s official communication, giving a total width of three and one- half miles to the turning movement at the top of this famous position, — In falling back the Germans are mak- ing in the direction of an emergency denburg line, called the Drocourt-q une. Work on this position is far f complete and the Germans seem 271 had no idea of payin it — as der orders to 2 Brith ove at every possible point to perm: On retiring on the Somme last month, the Germans apparently expected to hold all the Hindenburg line rannthg — southeast from Arras, Cambrai and through St. Quentin and Laon. The important point at the northern end of this Une was Vimy Ridge. There its no doubt the Germans never expected to be driven off that ridge by a frontal attack, as was done by the Canadians Monday. New Line Was Pianned. Anticipating a northern offensive, however, and the possible outflanking of the Vimy positions, the Droucourt- Queant switch running north from the Hindenburg line was planned. Meantime, the Germans, driven back from their old positions, were endeavoring to dig themselves in at various places, especially in front of Monchy-Le-Preux, in which process they suffered heavy casualties from artillery and machine n fire. It is rather difficult to explain the exact situation where the attacks center on arbitrary German field positions rather than on towns or villages. But in modern warfare the taking of a bit of trench or a strong point which is marked only on war maps, may te of far greater importance and significance than the capture ef a well-known ‘ity.

More than 5000 boys come under the terms of the order. Every boy who takes up the task of helping increase the food supply will be given credit for the full year of school work. If he is in the grad- ‘uating class he will be given his dip- loma, and it in a lower class will be given passing marks to the next grade. The order was issued by Leob without a meeting of the School Board, to avoid delay, but all mem- bers of the board who could be reached by telephone agreed to the order.

BRITISH FIGHTING IN GALE OF 90 RAIN AND SLEE Storm Began About Time of Opening Attack in the Arras Offensive. By a Staff Correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press. BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, April 12, via London.~-The amazing April storm, which began al- most at the exact hour set for the Brit- ish attack against the Germans, Mon- day morning, continues and the fight- ing conditions have been made extreme- ly difficult. The storm is accompanied by snow, rain and sleet and a gale that has seldom fallen below a velocity of 40 miles an hour. There have been oc- casional bits of sunshine but these lasted less than half an hour. The night temperatures are well below freezing. Notwithstanding these circumstances, the British attack widened today by a biow north of Vimy Ridge, the latter having been firmly held and consoli- dated by the Canadians against a bitter German fire. The troops which struck north of Vimy today penetrated to a point a few hundred yards northwest of Givenchy, having carried out their dawn attack with the same precision as has characterized their other opera- tions. On the remainder of the new front the work consisted largely of straightening certain elements in the line by annihil- ating several ‘‘pockets” where the Ger- mans had held out. The British also smashed to bits a strong German coun- ter-attack against Monchy-Le-Preux, the German losses being among the heaviest they have suffered during the new offensive. The fighting about Monchy has been very heavy since Tuesday, the Germans having been or- dered to prevent the British reaching that high point at all hazards. It was not until large numbers of British field batteries had been brought into plav ang the Germans were definitely beaten 0 Study in Black and White. The British attack and the German defense converged at Monchy, and it was a wonderful sight to watch this fghting from a nearby hill yesterdav and realize that for the moment this was the focal point of entire world war. The artillery duel cver the pretty little town was a study in black and white, the British shells breaking white on the German positions just east of the town, while the German Shells exploded over the town with smoke that resembled great balls of lamp black wool. Oc. casionally a German shell striking a brick building would send up a sweep- ing cloud of pinkish dust. During the fighting British air. planes hovered above Monchy, seem- ing to sit absolutely stationary as- One was thus “idling on the wind” when out of an overhanging cloud swooped three German machines, The Germans darted for the tail of the British machine, firing as they came. The khaki lad airman, despite this un- expected attack from ambush, splen- didly out-maneuvered his foes. He deliberately side-slipped out of con- trol, which literally means turning sideways and letting the machine fall virtually perpendicularly. There was not much Keight for a tong fall in this manner, so after thus escaping the first burst of fire from the Germans, the Britisher flattened freckles Was written by a prominent out and started for his own lines, to | Canadians have made a great haul in guns in their attack on the Vimy Ridge, thus for having brought in four 8-inch howitzers, nine of the famous German 5.9’s and 23 _ field pieces. In many of the captured gun positions the British found tier upon tier of ammunition. Prisoners from the German artillery said there was a great shortage in artillery horses in the army and that when the British struck so suddenly they had no chance to save their pieces, even far back of the old front line. One interesting bit of information the advance has disclosed is that the Germans were planning to shell Arras with two of their 42-centimeter “Big Berthas,“ which first won fame about Liege and Antwerp. These guns had reached Douai, and it was planned to place them near Fampoux, which now is in British hands, according to gun- ner prisoners. Prussic acid shells were to have been used. A large number of the German prisoners seem to be glad that they have been taken. Bavarians who but recently had come into the line that was attacked complained rather bit- terly that they were invariably sent to the worst part of the front. They said they knew something unpleasant was about to happen when they re- lieved the Saxons. The Bavarians do not impress the questioners as being very fond of the Prussians.

PRESIDENT PRAISES CUBA FOR ENTERING WAR FOR HUMANITY Menocal, in Reply, Expresses Pleas- ure at Favorable Impression Crea- ted by Island Republic’s Action. . HAVANA, April 13.—President Wilson in a cablegram to President Menocal expresses pleasure at the unanimity with which the Cuban people, through their Congress, have unhesitatingly cast their lot with the nations of the world who are championing, the rights and liberties of all mankind.™ The mes- age follows: “His Excellency, Mario G. President of Cuba, Havana: Jam greatly impressed by the unan- imity with which the Cuban people, through their constituted Congress, have unhesitatingly cast in their lot with nations of the world who are championing the rights and liberties, not alone of neutrals, but of all man- kind. We rejoice that Cuba, having gained the prize of self-government through sacrifice and blood, is in a po- sition to appraise, as all regenerated peoples do, the worth of that prize and stands ready to aid in confirming its existence for the welfare of mankind. .“WOODROW WILSON.” President Menocal sent the following reply: “I have read with deep satisfaction the cablegram announcing the favor- able impression that has been pro- duced upon your excellency by the atti- tude of the Cuban people with respect to the defense of the rights and liber- ties, not only of the neutral countries, but as your excellency says of all hu- manity. Cuba feels honored to be per- mitted to link its fate in this great con- flict that will decide the destinies of the world to that of the American peo- ple and the nations contending for 80 just a cause.“ FRECKLES This prescription for the removal of Menocal, 3 and is easly so successful 8 4 ay * ‘ ; 1 * 298 — K * : il 4 as 8 3 oN ad 3 — * 2 STS FS EER Aon SERS SSR ee i PaCS oe e 1 Sitar Re . er , Fee e e e 0 ers my 8 any Vita zy os 2. 8 2 . r BRAZIL URGESTTS | GENS TO QUIT | GERMANY AT ONE] Ships of German Ownership n Ports Found to Lack Im- portant Parts. NEWS PLANT WRECKED Mob Attacks Pro-German Paper; Uruguay Chamber Sends. Greetings to U. S. Congress. RIO JANEIRO, April .— Foreign Minister Lauro Muller has cabled the Brazilian Minister in Berlin, asking him to urge all Brazilians in Germany to leave the country within 24 hours. A deeree has been issued withdrawing the exequaturs of the German Consuls. The Ministers of France, Great Britain and Italy have conferred at length with Dr. Muller. An official inspection of the German ships in Brazilian ports show that im- portant parts of the engines are miss- ing, rendering the vessels practically useless. It is reported the Government has decided to seize the ships. Renewed anti-German demonstrations occurred last night. Crowds gathered before the German Club and hootea, after which they proceeded to legations of Chile and Argentina and cheered the ministers of the two sister republics. The League of Friends of the allies has approved the following propositions, which have been placed before the President: “First, the disarming of the confed- eratéd German rifle societies in South- ern Brazil; second, the prohibition of correspondence between German sub- jects through either foreign or do- mestic mails, and rigorous surveillance of all Germans resident in Brazil; third, the suspension of German newspapers and publications which spread ideas calculated to alarm or confuse the pub- lic mind; fourth, to offer the allies and the United States correct operations of the Brazilian fleet; fifth, to seques- trate all“ German ships until more rad- ical measures can be taken; sixth, the Gismissal of Lauro Muller as Foreign Minister and the appointment of his successor. According to the newspapers, the Gov- ernment is preparing to equip a strong contingent which will be concentrated in the states of Rio Grande Bo Sul, Parana and Santa Catharina, all neigh- boring states on the Atlantic Ocean, where German colonists are strong. The offices of the Diario Alemano, a pro-German organ at Sao Paulo was wrecked last night by a mob of pro- ally sympathizers. The presses were de- stroyed. Fraternal Greetings te U. 8.

IN NEW PEACE OVERTURES Washington Does Not Expect Aus- tria and Bulgaria to Propose Terms Acceptable to Entente. WASHINGTON, April 13.—Officials today viewed the disclosures that Austria and Bulgaria, through their representatives in Switzerland, are trying to approach entente diplomats on the subject of peace as gratifying inasmuch ag they indicate war wear- iness in those countries, but as not necessarily involving the sort of def- inite proposals that might bring peace in the near future. oo Information received here does not indicate that Austria and Bulgaria are sufficiently desperate to make them propose terms aceptable to the entente allies, and diplomats of the latter have indicated that they will refuse to enter peace discussions not based on publicly avowed. terms. Bulgaria’s military position is strong as her losses have been negligible. Free Dentistry for Soldiers.

HE proclamation of the President T of April 6, prescribing rules for the conduct of alien enemies, is the first exercise of the President’s war powers to be felt in the more or less peaceful communities of the United: States. The rules and orders, issued under statutory sanction, are in the twilight between civil and martial law. They may de forced by United States Marshals, who are civil officers, or by the military, according to the necessity, and offenses against them are triable before the civil courts or by courtsmartial, as the President may direct. It is necessary to an understanding of the term “war powers” to bear in mind that there are two distinct rela- tions in human society in contempla- tion of law, namely, peace and war; and that each is dealt with by its own peculiar system of law. The normal relation is that of peace, the activi- ties of which the civil law is adequate to regulate; the abnormal relation is that of war, the activities of which call into being a much more drast) system, known as martial ee Martial Law Seldom oked. With the development of erat po- litical institutions martial law, by rea- son of its unlimited discretionary character, is resorted to only under the pressure of necessity, when the civil law is plainly inadequate to the ends of public safety and order; and it ceases the moment the necessity ceases. Even in times of war, riot or rebellion, mar- tial law is net g@nerally invoked where the civil powers are adequate. Under the reactionary Constitutiog of Germany a declaration of war automat- ically brings martial law intg being throughout the empire; that is, the whole civil authority is displaced by the military, and all safeguards of civil rights under the Constitution vanish. This is not true of the United States. Martial law comes into force in our country only by a formal proclamation of the President, and then only in speci- fied places where the civil law is un- able to cope with disorders. We see in St. Louis today, for exam- ple, that by reason of the absence of disorders, or conditions menacing’ pub lic safety, the civil law remains exclu- sive and supreme. Soldiers are here, but martial law is not. Martial taw must be distinguished from military law, which is merely that law issued by Gov- of their armies,qg who are tried for breaches before military courts or com- missions, instead of before civil courts, Soldiers in the national army are always subject. to military law, which, in the United States, is embodied in the Arti- cles of War. Two Phases of | Law There are two phases of Ay law: First, that sometimes termed a state of lege, where the civil law is suspended in times of internal disturbance; and, second, martial law, as a part of inter- national law, which comes into being from the first moment of invasion of an enemy country and lasts during occupa- tion. It is the duty of the President to uphold the Constitution and enforce the laws. Under this solemn duty it is for nim to determine when the necesrity arises locally and the means to meet it. As Commander in Chief of the army end navy, his authority is supreme when they are in actual service.“ Con- gress may refuse to vote supplies, or to raise troops, and it has the power of' pthing in their defense of the realm act, of his troops may require. impeachment; but in the military move- ments and measures necessary to over- come the enemy, the President is subject to no control -whatever. In order to prosecute the war more effectively and to discharge bis consti- | t@tional duties, he may arrest persons on reasonable proof that they are ene- mies or aiding the enemy, remote from —ͤ trial, etc. * 1 We nutans Judges of coll courts, obstructing ‘be dent, are even liable to precautionary arrest and confinement. Persons ar- . dent may de held with or without trial. The whole summary system is embraced in and justified by the maxim that the safety of the commonwealth is the su- can practice to strengthen the civil law, and use it to the largest practicable extent, so as to preserve even in war the rights of peace. This may be seen in the new war legislation now before Congress making civil crimes of offenses which hereto- fore were punishable only under martial law. The British have done the same which, for example, gives the ordinary criminal courte jurisdiction in cases of spying, a heretofore strictly war ers. Within the theater of hostilities it 18. of course, impractital to use the civil law, and martial law is there supreme. Prisoners taken who have violated the laws of war, in.the misuse of a flag of truce, of the Red Cross or in any of a hundred ways, are tried in summary fashion by courtmartial. Practice in In Territory. So, too, in invaded territory, if the in- habitants violate the laws of war, or the rules for their conduct promulgated by the commander, they are summarily dealt with. As Prof. Hill says: “All acts of disobedience or hostility (on the part of inhabitants) are regard- ed as punishable, and by specific rules f the penalty of death is incurred by persons giving information to the enemy or serving as guides to the troops of their own country, by those who, while serving as guides to the troops of the invader, intentionally mislead them, and by those who destroy telegraphs, roads, canals or bridges, or who set fire to stores or soldiers’ quarters. “If the inhabitants of the occupied territory rise in insurrection, whether in small bodies or en masse, they cannot claim combatant privileges until they have displaced the occupation, and all persons found with arms in their hands can in strict law be killed, or If cap- tured be executed by sentence of court- martial.“ When order is restored in occupied enemy territory, the commander may, and usually does, respect the civil law as far as practicable, supplementing it with his own law so far as the safety The United States Constitution vests the power to, declare war in the two houses of Congress, with the assent of the President, but the President has the exclusive power of making treaties of peace, which, when ratified by the Sen- ate, become the supreme law of the land, Yet Congress may at any time compel the President to make peace by refusing the means of carrying on war. PARKER ATTAGKS AMERICANISM OF THE SOCIALISTS Declares in Convention Against, Amalgamation of His Party With Theirs. In a speech bristling with patriotism before the Progressive National Con- vention at the Planters Hotel today, Col. John M. Parker, who was the vice presidential candidate of the party last year, attacked the Socialists for pull- ing down the flag of this country and turning their back upon it, and declared that he would hang his head in shame and walk back to his home in Louisi- ana before he would vote to amaiga- mate the Progressive party’ with a party that was disloyal to the nation. Many Socialists, who were attending their own national corfvention in the other end of the hotel, were standing in the doorway of the Progressive ot tack upon their Amreicanism é Stands fer Americani#m.

WASHINGTON, April 13.—A poll tak- en by newspaper men indicates that, while there are clear majorities in the House and Senate against immediate conscription, a draft measure can be put through if the President will urge it strongly enough as a war measure. The canvass of both Houses shows the following: Senate—In favor of immediate draft, without a previous trial of the volun- teer system, 40; against immediate draft, 88; doubtful, 18. Total, 96. House—In favor of immediate draft, without previous trial of volunteer sys- tem, 218; against immediate draft, 186: doubtful, 28.

Anthony, Re- publican, of Kansas, by which the President would be authorized to be- gin registration for the conscription of troops immediately and to put conscrip- tion into effect at his own discretion, but that in the meantime a call for vol- unteers for the national army should be issued, and every man given a chance to enlist as a volunteer.

Baker said he went in his automobile ahead of the wagon, to show them where the boxes were to go, and that the boxes were carried in at the rear while he entered at the front door. Thomas T. Fauntleroy, counsel for the defense, questioned Baker about a quarrel which he had with Gilmore and Imel in Cafferata’s Cafe, two weeks before the fire, and asked him if he had not threatened to get even. He admitted the quarrel, but did not definitely admit that he made any threat. The dispute, he said, was over the return of some pictures which he had obtained from a painter who had his studio in Gilmore's place. He said this dispute was soon patched up, and that he and Gilmore had a drink together. He was then questioned about the circumstances of his arrest, on the evening of Sept. 11, 1915, and he told how he was questioned at Police Headquarters. Fauntleroy got him to admit that he had said things, under this questioning, which he _ after- ward repudiated as untrue. He also got the admission that Baker, within the last year, had called at his of- fice, trying to get Fauntleroy to rep- resent him. The lawyer tried to get him to admit that he then said he had “lied about the boys,” but Baker did not admit this definitely. Questioned as to Immunity. The next ground of attack was Ba- ker’s supposed expectation of immunity. Baker, who has pleaded guilty to arson, was asked why he employs a lawyer, R. Perry Spencer, to be in court with him, and if it was not Spencer’s task to get him a parole. Baker said he expected to go to the penitentiary, he said “I don’t know.

Recruiting throughout the country has picked up so materially since the Amer- ican state of war declaration against Germany that hasty preparations are being made at Jefferson Barracks to in- crease facilities for the handling of re- cruits fourfold. One hundred tents delivered there two weeks ago have been pitched on the grounds, while 1100 more have been re- quisitioned. With 1200 tents and the per- manent quarters, facilities will be fur- nished for the handling of 10,000 recruits each month. Prior to the war declara- tion but 1500 men were trained each month at the barracks. Yesterday 2300 men were fed at dinner. According to Capt. R. R. Wood, chief of the Quar- termaster’s corps, the present facilities could be strained to handle 2500 men. Bids will soon be asked for the erec- tion of four emergency buildings, to be constructed of rough yellow pine, with corrugated iron roofs. The new temporary structures re- quired are a mess hall, 100 by 250 feet, capable of seating 5000 men in two sit- tings; a storage hous for supplies, the dimensions of which will be 31 by 26 feet; a temporary. hospital, capable of accommodating 400 men, and a tempo- rary receiving barracks to house 1000 men. Bids are to be opened at the Barracks today for 860,000 feet of lumber to be used in floors and siding for tents. This lumber will be delivered as needed, and will be sufficient to take care of the tentage planned. The tents will have board sides, to a height of three feet. At the top of the siding for a space of 36 inches mosquito netting is placed. The canvas sides of the tents are used to drop over the netting in wet or cold weather as protection from the elements To provide space for the number of tents space needed, work of clearing land in the vicinity of the National Cem- etery has commenced. This work is un- der the direction of Maj. C. E. Stodter. Capt. Wood reports the quartermas- ter's department to be in good shape to handle all the recruits that may present themselves at.the Barracks for a month, even at the increased rate. His department received 2600 blankets yes- terday and got word that 2,000 more were on the way. A car load of pota- toes Was a recent addition to his sub- sistence department. HOLDS RESPECT OF NATIONS Holiand’s Neutrality, However, Has Cost Belligerents’® Affection, Says ; Premier, ‘THE HAGUE, April 18.—Premier Cort Van Der Linden, speaking in the First Chamber yesterday, sald: “The longer the war lasts the more difficult becomes the situation, while the limits of international law grow continually narrower. We suffer from the submarine war and block- ade policy, but we do not deviate from our policy of strict neutrality and readiness to defend our soil against any one attacking us. The belligerents injure us by their war- fare, and our neutrality injures their interests.” The Netherlands, said the Prime Minister, grants favors to neither party, but is doing what, according to the best judgment, appears to be right. “We become more lonely, and by what we do we win the affection of neither party. But in any case we shall retain their respect.” Bakery Special at Bus Bee Shops ‘Orange Sunshine Cake; 20 the loaf. U.S. FLEET 10 PATROL THE ATLANTIC COAST Naval Plans Agreed to by Dan- iels and French and British Admirals. WASHINGTON, April 13.—New m- petus is given to plans for naval co- operation between the Vnited States and the entente nations by conferences be- tween Secretary Daniels and American naval officers and Vice Admiral M. E. Browning of the British navy and Rear Admiral H. A. Grasset of the French navy. American warships first will un- dertake the patrol! of the entire Atlantic coast from Panama northward, possibly even including Canada, permitting the withdrawal of British and French patrol vessels and using naval bases of those nations jn the South Atlantic if neces- sary. Naval officers expect Germany will extend submarine activities sporadicaily to this side of the Atlantic and will announce a formal blockade of Boston New York, the mouth of the Delaware, Charleston and Savannah. A flotilla of motor patrol boats now being assem- bled and a number of submarine trap nets will be relied on chiefly for pro- tection of sea coast and harbors. It is understood the British and French ports in Europe will be opened tc American ships when the need arises and eventually an American naval sta- tion probably will be established on the Irish coast. Accompanying Admiral Browning are the following British naval officers: Capt. A. Lownes, G. A. Miller, flag secretary to the commander; Flag Lieu- tenant-Commander A. R. J. Southby and Capt. E. G. Cheesman, Royal Ma- rine Light Infantry. Accompanying Admiral Grasset is Flag Lieutenant James Hennessy of the French navy, who also is a member of the French Chamber of Deputies.

Militiamen recently have been in- structed to use the utmost diligence to prevent persons whose actions are suspicious from approaching the armory, bridges, waterworks or other points under guard, and to shoot if their pases ta are not obeyed. 1 as Sole Judge. „Phe 1 141 ual sentry is the sole judge of whether a person is acting suspiciously,” said Lieutenant Colonel Robbins. “It is not his duty to ter- rorize innocent persons, but he is ine structed to command civilians to halt and if they do not comply, to shoot, and to shoot to kill if necessary. “The sentries are on duty to pro- tect property. They are not to use undue force, but persons who ap- proach sentries in a threatening manner should understand that they do so at their own peril.” The orders issued to sentries, in part, are: The sentry will open fire on an indi- vidual only when the property he is to protect cannot otherwise be protected, or his own life or that of others js threatened. Guards should not attempt to exer- cise general police supervision over the territory they are instructed to guard, as that duty is still in the hands of the civil authorities, Under no circumstances will a sentry engage in conversation with a civillan. He should make his orders clear and decisive and should arrest anyone not obeying.”’ Civilian Wounded in Arm. At 2:10 o’clock, this morning William Kennedy, 38, living at the Erie House, Fourth street and. Clark avenue, was shot through the right arm by one of two sentries on duty on the south side of the First Regiment Armory, Grand avenue and Market street. Private Richard F. Chew reported that he saw three men crawling on their hands and knees on a lot across teh street, and that they refused to obe ya command from him to cross the street. He said that one of them picked up something which he thought was a brick and made a mo- tion as though to throw it. He said che then fired, and Private William Hand, on the next post, who had run up, also fired. One of the men was wounded and the others disappeared. Kennedy was taken to the city hos- pital, The physicd! examination of the members of the regiment by United States arm yofficers and surgeons was completed yesterday, except for a fe wmen.

J., April 13.—Charged with having referred to President Wilson with abusive language, and also with having threatened his life, Gustave E. Godshall of Philadelphia, was arrested last night in French- town. He is alleged to have declared his intention of shooting any one who attempted to draft him for mili- tary service. SAVE YOUR HAIR A 25 GENT BOTTLE REMOVES DANDRUFt Every bit of dandruff disappear; and hair stops goming out Try this! Your hair appears glossy abundant, wavy and beautiful. Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy hair is mute evidence Of a neglected scalp; of dandruff— that awful scurf. There is nothing so destructive to the hair as . .ncruff. It robs the hair of its luster, its strength and its very life; eventually producing a feverish- ness and itching of the scalp, which if fot remedied causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die—then the hair falls out fast. A little Dander- ine tonight—now—any time—vwill surely save your hair. Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton’s Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter and after the first ap- plication your hair will take on that life, luster and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have the appearance the events are viewed, one of the fore- most is that of the co-operation of the democracies against militarism, the moral importance of which is declared to be beyond estimation. The Russian revolution and the entrance of the United States into the war are coupled by the Times as events which ‘‘oppress the imagination and judgment of those who witness them.“ “They overawe by their magnitude,“ the Times continues. We feel that they may determine not merely political for- tues, but the moral future of man- kind. No man living can see them in the true perspectives—can measure their greatness or calculate their possi- bilities. But they are fuller of promise than any events of our time.“ Premier Salutes America. As the first British Prime Minister to salute the American nation as a com- rade in arms, Lloyd George, speaking at the American Luncheon Club, aroused intense enthusiasm by his scathing de- nunciation of Prussia and his warm welcome to America as an ally in the war. “The advent of the United States into, the war,” he said, gives the final stamp to the character of the conflict as a struggle against military autocracy throughout the world“ Premier Lloyd George, always forceful and epigrammatic, was never in finer form and his words struck a responsive chord. There were toasts to the Pres- ident of the United States and to the King of England and a wonderful dis- play of rejoicing over the sealing of the bond of friendship between the United States and England and France and the other allies, in the acceptance by Amer- ica of the gage of battle. “The United States of America, of a noble tradition, never broken, never have engaged in a war except of lib- erty,’’ declared the Premier. That it has made up its mind finally makes it abundantly clear to the world that this is a great fight for human liberty.“ Again, he said: Prussia is not a de- mocracy. The Kaiser promises that it will be a democracy after the war. I think he is right.“ Describing Prussia as an army, the Premier said it had its great institu- tions, its great universities and its sci- ence. But all these were subordinate to the one great predominant purpose of an all-conquering army to enslave the world. The army was the spearpoint of Prussia—the reat was the gilded haft.’’ The Premier paid warm tribute to France, the patience, the gallantry, the dignity of the French, preparing against the impending terror of Prussian mill- tarism. America did not Know, but Eu- rope knew the meaning of Prussian despotism. A remarkable feature of the Premier's speech was his warning to the United States to avoid the blunders committed by the British. He said: ‘‘We are a slow people—slow and blundering—but we get there. We have made, as we generally do, every blunder. May I re- spectfully suggest that it is worth a good deal to study our blunders, 80 as to begin where we are now, not where we were three years ago.“ The arrangements already under way for the building of ships by the United States appealed strongly to the Premier, who declared that the road to victory, the guarantee of victory, the absolute assurance of yictory, was to be found in the one word “ships,” and always ships. Of America’s part in the war, the Premier said: “It was a ad day for the military autocracy in Prussia when it challenged the great republic of the West. We know America and we also know that now she has said it, she will do it. She will wage a strong and successful war, and there is something more important, she will ensue a beneficent peace.“ Premier’s Speech in Full. Following is the complete text of Premier Lloyd George's speech: “I am in the position, in the happy position of being, I think, the first Prime Minister of the crown who, speaking on behalf of the people of this country, could salute the American na- tion as comrades in arms. I am glad not only because of the stupendous re- sources which this great nation will bring to the succor of the allies, but I rejoice as a Democrat that the advent of the United States into this war gives at their old tricks. Striking Paragraphs From Lloyd George’s Address HE United States of America, +; of a noble tradition, never broken, never have engaged in a war except for liberty. This is the greatest struggle for liberty that they have ever embarked upon, Most of the great wars in the past were waged for dynastic ag- grandizement and for conquest. It is no wonder that when this great war started there were some ele- ments of suspicion still lurking in the minds of the people of the United States of America, that there were many who thought per- haps that the Kings were at their old tricks. I think they somewhat, perhaps, regarded it as in the na- ture of a conspiracy of monarchial swashbucklers. Prussia is not a democracy. The Kaiser promises that it will be a democracy after the war. I think he is right. But Prussia not merely is not a democracy; Prussia was not a state; Prussia was an army. The army was the spear point of Prussia—the rest was the gilted haft. The Hindenburg line was drawn along the shores of America and Americans were told they must not cross it, and America said, ““What is this?“ America said, The place for that line is not the Atlantic, but on the Rhine, and we mean to roll it up.” And they have started. no wonder that when this great war started there were some elements of suspicion still lurking in the minds of the people of the United States of America, that there were many who thought perhaps that the Kings were I think, they some- what, perhaps, regarded it as in the nature of a conspiracy of monarchial swashbucklers. That the United States of America has made up its mind final- ly makes it abundantly clear to the world that this is no struggle of that character, but a great fight for human liberty. “They naturally did 0 know at first what we had endured in Europe for years from this military caste—it had never reached as far as the United States of America. Prussia is not a democracy. it will be a democracy after the war. I think he is right. But Prussia not merely is not a democracy; Prussia was not a state; Prussia was an army. It had its great institutions, its great uni- versities, it had developed its science. All these were subordinate to the one great predominant purpose of an all- conquering army to enslave the world.

The best energies of democratic France have been devoted to preparing against the impending terror the brave things France was capable of, and that great home of the imaginative, fertile mind, which would otherwise have been devoted to progress, was paralysed.

FLAGS AND APPLAUSE U. S. Entry Into War “Supreme Political Event of All His- tory,’ Says Page. LONDON, April 18.—The Pilgrims of Great Britain last night gave a dinner in honor of Walter Hines Page, the United States Ambassador. Arthur J. Balfour, the British For- eign Secretary, was to have presided but owing to diplomatic affairs of state, especially concerning the Uni- ted States, he was unable to be pres- ent. His place was taken by Viscount ‘Bryce, president of the Pilgrims. Among the speakers was Ambas- sador Page, who dealt with the entry of the United States into the war and declared that he was stirred to the depths of his nature by the American companionship in arms with Great Britain and her aliies. Viscount Bryce declared that the United States, in quitting the isolation she had cherished since the days of Washing- ton, had taken a Step that was full of significance for all time to come. Lords Robert Cecil, Minister of Blockade, said Great Britain and the United States, through their asso- ciation, would bring greater things for the world. There was a profusion of flags and cheering such as the dignified as- semblage in Great Britain rarely in- dulge in. _A reference to Canada and to her repfesentasive, ir Robert Bor- den, proyoked a great demonstration, There also was an ovation for Her- bert @& Hoover, chairman of the American Commission for Relief of Belgium, when Viscount Bryce, re- ferring to him “as that great Amer- ican,” announced that Hoover was sreturning to the United States to as- sume the position of chairman of the American Food Board. Secretary Harry Brittain read telegrams from the New York Pilgrims and from Joseph H. Choate and others. Viscount Bryce Speaks. In his address Viscount Bryce said: “When the United States, quitting the isolation she had cherished since the days of Washington, obeyed the supreme call of duty and set herself by the side of the free nations of the world in order to save the future of humanity, she took a step full of significance for all the ages to come. The German Government, fortunately, in some things is as ignorant as it is malevolent. Ignorant as it has been of Great Britain, as well as of the spirit of loyalty of her great domin- ions, its greatest mistake of all was when it misunderstood the United States of America. It had thought America was lapped in luxurious ease and was so devoted to pursuits of business and the piling up of wealth that she had no thought of other things. “Germany did not know that Amer- ica loved honof and freedom above all her other possessions; that there is nowhere a higher and more pervasive idealist. America now is in the war for all she is worth, and how much that means those best know who know America best.” Viscount Bryce emphasized that the United States had no animosity against the German people and no desire for gain from the war. Great and Resounding Blow. Lord Robert Cecil, Minister of the Blockade, said: Thank God neutral- ity for America is no longer neces- saryy’ He added that the decision: of the United States to enter the war was a great and resounding blow against unprovoked een on neutral rights. Whatever the fellowship of suffering and triumph between America and the allies during the further course of the war, Lord Robert added, it could not be doubted that the association of Great Britain and the United States would ultimately mean great things for them- selves and even greater things for the world. Their joint triumph would re- sult eventually in the establishment of real international law, instead of the present international anarchy. Ambassador Page Speaks: - After expressing his thanks for the wel- come extended to his country on its en- trance into the war, Ambassador Page said: “Our creed is the simple immortal creed of democracy. This is the ideal toward which the whole world now is moving along bloody paths. None of theag old lands, not even this, freest of all, will ever again slip back into its ante-bellum self-contentment. It is a colossal upheaval which will turn the world into a better place for free men.” Referring to the closer sympathy be- tween Great Britain and the United States that would result from this strug- le, the Ambassador said: 1 wish most earnestly to declare in this presence that in my judgment the differences that have arisen in the im- mediate past between our two Govern- ments and the peoples have suffered enormous exaggerations.

Some of our differences are his- torical and fundamental, but most of them are superficial or man L by agitation. None of them need or can separate us in the further development of our national freedom. “Our association in war will do more to make us forget each other’s idiosyn- cracies and remember each others vir- tues than all other events of the last hundred years. We shall get out of this association an indissoluble companton- ship, and shall henceforth have indis- soluble mutual duties to mankind. “I doubt if there oould be another in- ternational event comparable in large value fo this closer association. 1 re- gard it as the supreme politics! event LE ů I NSN 5 png 9 a ie W.

ARMY BILL DISCUSSED Administration Proposal Is De- clared to Be Sound in Principle. NEW YORK. April 12.—Former Secretaries of War were asked by the New York World to give their opinions on the selective draft pro- posal in the Administration’s new l. Replies thus far received the privilege of moyen the text of. the selective draft army bill, but I think I understand its provisions and that it is the one recommended by the General Staff. I am strongly in favor of its adoption. The traditions of this country 1 favored resort to volunteer armies in time of danger, and these traditions have been strengthened by the ultimate success that has always attended us in our wars. The chief discouragement for those favoring a permanent com- pulsory military service has been in the popular preference for the volunteer tion was undemocratic and reflected on the patriotism of republican free men. Analysis of the real working of our Ablunteer system in the war of 1812, in must reveal to every careful student the enormous sacrifice of the most pa- trigtic by hurrying them in unprepared masses to wage the country’s wars and hUbjecting them to unnecessary slaugh- ter. & perusal of Major-General Upton's history of the military policy of the United States will satisfy any reasona- ble reader that the volunteer system is the least effective, the most unjust and the most expensive system that can be adopted, The victories that have attended us in other years have not been due to (Fat system but in spite of it. Never- theless, it has seemed to me in the past that so great was the popular feeling lieve, however, from a recent duc of it before audiences in many parts of the country, that the lessons of the Eu- repean war, the experience of Great tain, and the emergency in which this country w finds herself, have aroused the practical, common sense of the American people and have led them to approve the compulsory service bill 98 best adapted to our immediate needs and to the requirements of the wise, oe: manent military policy. * * * In this matter President Wilson is cer- tainly and profoundly right and should have our earnest support. The contest over the bill is one of the greatest crises in our proper and effective conduct of this war for mankind. WILLIAM H. TAP#. Lake EB. Wright for Compulsory Service! MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 13.—I have not seen a draft of the pending army draft bill, but assume it is based upon the principle of universal compulsory service, and if so, I heartily favor it. a, able-bodied citizen should be ade- uately trained to do efficient service in case of war. A system which provides for this is the only democratic system as it imposes equality of duty upon all alike. 5 preparation makes for peace Ust unpreparedness invites war. Now that we are at war we should bend every energy along correct lines to make our participation amount to something.

~1N$40,000,000 DEAL . . W. A. Kennedy Closes Contract a for Reconstruction of Cities in Northern France. William A. Kennedy, president of the New York banking firm of Kennedy, Mitchell & Co., who, according to New York and Paris dispatches, has just closed a contract with the French Gov- ernment to furnish 200,000,000 francs ($40,000,000) for the reconstruction of the cities of Northern France after the war, is a former Missourian. He formerly lived in Farmington, and for a short time in St. Louls, KL and Kansas City. ‘ 1 The contract provides Yor the recon- striction of important buildings in the vicinity of Verdun, the Argonne and the heights of the Meuse. The material for the reconstruction of the destroyed cities will be bought in the United States, In a statement given out in New York yesterday, Kennedy said his firm had received important plans and specifica- tions from a commission which has charge of the work for the French Gov- ernment, and that the movement to re- build the cities had the support of the Bank of France. “All purchases of supplies and ma- terials to carry on the work in Northern France will be handled by our import and export department.“ Kennedy said. “The financial plan and details will be in charge of our banking house. This contract is the first that has been awarded for the betterment of condi- tions in devastated Europe and, despite its heavy volume, is a mere beginning.’ Hae Written Several Books. Kennedy went to London several years ago and established a banking house, but a little more than a week ago he returned to the United States and opened a financial business in Wall street. While he was in business in London he made a tour of the battlefields of France and wrote a series of articles. He also has written several books, and has one now in press, which is a de- scription of life in the vicinity of Bonne Terre, Mo., one of the great lead mining districts of the State. Kennedy is about #0 years old. chased an office building on Broadway, New York, at a cost of nearly $5,000,000. COUNTY SCHOOL PUPILS 10 BE URGED TO PLANT GARDENS Superintendent Rassell Advises Boards to Enlist 25,000 Children in Campaign to Increase Production, Letters sent out today by R. G. Rus- sell, Superintendent of Schools in St. Louis County, to every school teacher, the presidents of all the school boards and the Mayors of all the towns in the county, suggested that the 25,000 school children in the urban and rural dis- tricta be enlisted in a campaign under the slogan: “Increased Food Produc- tion Versus the High Cost of Living.“ The plan is to encourage the boys and girls to cultivate unused fields, lots and plots of ground. During four days next week two members of the faculty of the University of Missouri Agricultural School, George W. Reaves and A. H. Bmberson, will speak at 16 schools on the planting and tending of food prod- ucts, and in June they will return to give instruction in canning and pre- A committee of 18 men will be named to direct the campaign, and one sug; gestion is that a public exhibition be held, with prizes for the faest examples of food products raised. _ FAITH HEALER ‘HEALS’ FOOT, BUT PATIENT STILL DOUBTS Negro Evangelist, Held for Holding Out as Physician,Rubs Police Janitor’s Pain Away. A negro evangelist, who had been arrested for holding himself out as a physician, begged the police to give him an opportunity to prove his pow- er to heal by faith. Just then Chris Schmidt, head janitor at police head- quarters, limped into the holdover. Schmidt had rheumasticm in his right foot and had to wolk on his heel. “Tt will relieve his pain in 10 min- utes,” said the negro. Schmidt removed his shoe and sock. The negro rutbed the swollen foot. Schmidt cried “ouch” a few times, but in about three minutes declared his rheumatiom was going away. “I - kknow it 18.“ said the negro, “I can _ feel it coming into my arm.” In 10 minutes Schmidt was doing a jig. He said he had never had faith in the faith cure and had not been converted in spite of the demonstra- tion... “That must have been elec- tricity in hig hands,” he commented. His firm recently pur- ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH GIVES PRESIDENT POWER 10 DIRECT RAILROAD OPERATIONS Amended Common Carrier Bill Vir- tually Provides Same Service as if Government Took Over Lines. WASHINGTON, April 13.—Power for the President to order railway officials to operate any part of their rolling stock during war time as he may see fit without actually taking over railroads, is given in the common-carrier regula- tion bill of the last session reintroduced in amended form today by Chairman Adamson of the House Commerce Com- mittee. Provisions to permit the President to control and operate all railroad, tele- graph and telephone lines, to draft their employes into the military service, to use the military in protecting the oper- ation of railway lines and to increase the personnel of the Interstate Com- ö merce Commission from seven to ll members, are included, as in the pre- vious bill. The section by which the President might order the operation of part of a road’s rolling stock is considered of the greatest importance. It would permit the Government to obtain the same service that it would if the line were taken over and at the same time prove economical in time and cost, it is be- lieved. Compensation for the use of rolling stock by the Government would be fixed by the Interstate Commerce Commission. No Rent for Nation’s Defenders. UNION HILL, N. J., April 13.—Two hundred and fifty tenants of houses owned by James B. Usher were notified today by Usher that he would not charge rent to families in which the principle wage earner enlisted for war. Usher also offers to help support such families in other ways. FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1917. “GOLDEN WAY” IS PLANNED FOR-AD MEN'S CONVENTION Stree Lamps in Downtown District Will Be Stained With Amber- Colored Lacquer.

Tell About Oriental Found Making Photographs of Bridge. K. Takada, a Japanese-empfoye of a cotton importing firm in Japan, and temporarily employed by a cotton ex- porting company in Austin, Tex., who was arrested yesterday by soldiers guarding the Eads bridge after they had observed him photographing the structure, is being held a prisoner pending a decision of Department of Justice as to what shall be done with him. Members of the Austin firm, according to telegraphic reports, said the Japa- nese company sent Takada to Austin two years ago to learn the cotton busi- ness, and that in accordance with a custom of the Japanese company, which gives one of its employes an educa- tional tour every two years, Takada Was selected this year and sent on a tour of Southern and Eastern cities. Takada had in his possession photo- graphs of bridges and public buildings of several of the larger cities, and memoranda of details of buildings in St. Louis and Eastern cities. He said the information was for a diary to re- call in later years the interesting scenes he had visited. Won't Eat Meat on Wednesdays.

WASHINGTON, April 3.— The re- union of the French and American arms is greeted as reviving a military fra- ternity sealed by Lafayette and Roch- ambeau, in telegrams exchanged be- tween Gen. Nivelle, the French com- mander in chief, and Major-General Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff of the United States army, and made public last night by the War Department. The message follows: “To the Chief of the American General Staff: “The French army has heard with the deepest emotion the noble and moving words addressed by President Wilson to the American Congress. “Her joy is immense on hearing that Congress has declared a state of war with Germany. She recalls the souvenir of military fraternity sealed more than a century ago by Lafayette and Roch- ambeau on American soil and which will be made tighter on the battlefields of Burope. “She salutes the Star-Spangled Ban- ner which she will be happy and proud to see floating soon near our flags for the triumph of right and aivilization. “The French General commanding in chief sends to the American General commanding in chief the expression of his cordial welcome and entire devo- tion. GENERAL NIVELLE.” Washington, April 12, 1917. “Gen, Nivélle: “Commander in Chief of French army. “It was with profound satisfaction that your cable message of April 8 was read announcing the enthusiastic recep- tion by the French army of news of the acts of the President and Congress of the United States declaring thé ex- istence of a state of war with Germany. The memory of Lafayette and Rocham- beau forms one of the most cherished traditions of the American people and the army of the United States is eager to take its place side by side with the armies of France and her allies now fighting so nobly for democracy and the liberty of the world. “The American army sends you its thanks and fully reciprocates the feel- ing of fraternity expressed by the French army in so gracious a manner through its Commander in Chief. H. L. SCOTT, “Major-General United States Army, Chief of Staff.“ MAN IN AUTO IS HURT M COLLISION WITH A WAGON Tongue of Vehicle on Riverview Drive Fractures His Skull; Sol- diers in a City Machine Injured. Elmer J. Sharum, 24 years old, of 516 East Prairie avenue is at the city hospital with a fractured skull as the result of a collision between an automobile he was driving and a farmer’s wagon last night on River- view drive, just north of Davis road. One of a team of mules attached to the wagon was killed. James Behan, 57 years old, of Ba- den Station, who drove the team, was errested. He said that he was not re- sponsible for the accident. The tongue of the wagon pierced the windshield on the auto and struck Sharum on the head. An automobile belonging to the city water department and occupied by Harold Zimmer and Floyd Dar- ley, Zuardsmen attached to Company A, First Regiment, ran into a street car at Broadway and Gimblin avenue last night. Zimmer was cut on the nose and left knee. Darley was cut on the left hand. THREE NEGROES ELECTROCUTED About 50 Persons See Oklahoma Slayers Die in Electric Chair.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Now that the United States has definitely de- cided to enter the war, let us begin to revise the naming of our city streets to suit modern condi- tions. What has Berlin ever done for us that she has a fine residence street named in her honor? Why not name that thoroughfare after that gal- lant little Kansas General, Frederick Funston? Funston is the man who upheld the honor of our flag in the Philippines and Mexico! Let Bismarck avenue be named Cavell avenue after that most gallant and devoted Red Cross nurse, Edith Cavell, who after taking communion with a British Chaplain, refused to have her eyes blinded, but folding her arms, stood with unflinch- ing front to the German firing squed. Can we ig- nore this devout churchwoman? What did Bis- marck ever do for us? Hurrah for the Red Cross! Baden, Bremen avenue and many other names might be eliminated in favor of those airmen, our own American boys already fallen tut not for- gotten. It is a shame that we have no prominent street named for Admiral Dewey. Why can’t we rename Grand avenue after this departed hero? What or who was Grand, anyhow? It is surpris- ing that when our illustrious history teems with such gallant names as Charles C. Pinckney, Oliver Hazard Perry, Anthony Wayne and many others, that we have to name our streets after such utter rubbish as Red Bud, Emma and the like. These changes would convince the world that a republic is grateful, and that we appreciate the men who devote their lives to the maintenance of our safety and integrity as a nation. “JUSTICE.” ——— Agricultural Students to Farms. To th. Editor of the Post-Dispatch: It would de splendid to send as many agri- cultural students as Possible, to help maintain the farms. Why not send out a special call to the effect that the students shall leave their col- leges at once, going to farms nearest their schools? A. F. 4 Dr. Siebert Replies. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your Mr. Nameless, calling himself Tillinois, makes one mistake in his long letter. He quotes In the essential from mere military men «f Ger- many. I had no use for them when I wus in Germany and have of course no use for then since I breathe the alr' of the United States. I left Germany on account of them. It fs that part President Wilson declared we have war with —and when Germany is liberated from them—I welcome it. I welcome it so much more as I think Germany will have to pay this price and when the people conclude to pay this price real soon, we will have the much desired*peace. Then my idea of Jan. 12, 1916 which seems to be for Mr. Nameless a greater ridd than Haeckel's Riddle of the Universe—which evidently he does not understand—may yet become true. President Wilson himself has left the way open and Mr. Nameless cannot “shutter” it up, in part my idea is now nearer realization than in 1915. DR. A. SIEBERT. To Improve Chouteau Avenue. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The opening of the Free Bridge and the com- pletion of the Chouteau viaduct are about to make Chouteau avenue one of the busiest Syren + ot St. Louls. It being the only direct route and west from the river to the western boundary of St. Louis, even connecting with most all county roads which ramify our suburban territory con- tiguous to the city, much r as well as pleasure—will hereafter be carried on along. ‘his street. Pleasure vehicles from the east side tring to visit our parke museum, Zoological ex- aibit ete, naturally looking for the most direct route will drive out Chouteau avenue, hence good 7 mumination is of utmost importance. The Chouteau District Improvement Association nas launched a campaign in the Municipal Assem- bly for this purpose and most earnestly solicite the support of the public in behalf of this much VOLUNTEER TAXATION? Do the members of Congress who favor the vol- unteer system of raising an army also favor a vol- Mr. Morgan, Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Carnegie, Mr. Schwab and men of that class should be allowed to say what taxes they will pay to the support of the Government in war, or whether they will pay any taxes at all? If the volunteer system shall be the right way to raise an army in war it ought to spell the right way to’raise revenue for war. If the country is to trust to disinterested patriotism in one case, why | not in the other? No Senator or Representative is credulous enough to think that the Government could ob- tain the war revenues it needs by resorting to vol- untary contributions. Bxperience has taught Con- gress better than that. Then why should Con- gress refuse to profit by experience in the matter of raising an army? | “In three years we tried every kind of blunder,” said Lloyd George, the British Prime Minister, in a speech made to Americans in London yesterday. “It is worth America’s while to study our blun- ders and begin where we are now.” The administration’s war measures, beginning with the selective draft army bill, are the fruits of a carefulestudy of our own war history ‘and of Great Britain’s blunders in the war. These meas- ures do not represent casual opinions or theories of individuals. They are the ripe experience of great democracies which had to learn the lessons of war for themselves. Those lessons are instant- ly available for our use and to refuse to use them will be a crime against the nation. Congress may object to the word draft“ or to the word “conscription,” but this is a poor time to quibble about words. This war is serious busi- ness, and it will remain serious business until it is ended. No member of Congress would dream of sending a soldier into the trenches with one hand tied behind him; but scores of Congressmen are seeking to send the United States Government into the war with one hand disabled. Unless the Government cah employ its man power as that man power is needed, sending this man to the army, keeping this man on the farm, holding this man in the factory, increasing the product of its essential industries and selecting its soldiers from the nonessential industries, it is crippled for a war of the kind that must be waged against Ger- man autocracy. The German military experts are closely watch- ing every move of this country in order to deter- mine whether our participation in the war threat- ens serious consequences to the empire. Maj. Moraht has already published his opinion that American land forces will present no danger to Germany. Capt. Persieus believes that our “mil- itary and economics” are undergoing a decisive test. “Then we shall soon arrive at a clear con- ception of the consequences which North Ameri- ca’s participation in this contest means to us.“ Nothing else will be so gratifying to German autocracy as to learn authoritatively that Congress has refused to profit by Great Britain’s blunders in the war and our own experience in past wars all the lessons of experience Which have been so dearly bought with lives = treasure. HANGING RODENBERG IN EPFIGY. East St. Louis has shown in emphatic ways what it thinks of its anti-American Congressman, William BE. Rodenberg. This is not the only time he has been conspicuous as a misrepresentative of the district. He has long been out of touch with the best sentiment of his State and the country at large. The result of the next primary should give the Republicans of the Twenty-second a candidate more worthy of their support. H it fails to do so, the Democratic primary - “will un- doubtely present a better choice. To hang Mr. Rodenberg in effigy in the prin- cipal.town of his district may furnish relief to the popular feeling, but the punishment that really fits his case and the only one he fears is to cut him off from the emoluments of office he has already enjoyed far too long. = = _— PREPAREDNESS AND HUMANITY. Facing the unknown possibilities of world war, and preparing to meet its responsibilties, St. Louis has organized its own chapter of the Amer- ican Red Cross and it is now certain that its membership will be adequate in numbers to rep- resent the dignity and the humanity of the city. It is gratifying that whatever actual suffer- ing is inevitably incident to calling St. Louis re- serves into service is being relieved by the activ- ities of the St. Louis chapter. It is equally grati- fying that at present this sufefring is compara- fively slight, as it may remaiw for some time in the future, which, however, is manifestly preg- nant with possibilities of distress, beyond present possibilities of calculation or anticipation. It is the duty and the work of the Red Cross so to prepare itself that the maximum of aut fering, unimaginable and indeseribable, may actu- ally be reduced to the minimum. Our St. Louis chapter represents the city in the great American } association, which connects closely with the in- 8 unteer system of taxation? Do they believe that and that the United States has formally rejected ie ‘aie is “that it cannot possibly give teal much money for this cause or give it too soon. i, hi ti i . OBEY ‘‘HALT’’ ORDERS, Every citizen, challenged by a soldier on guard duty, should promptly halt and heed whatever warning is given. The soldier has not the func- tions of a policeman. The man in ea United States uniform has no choice but to obey the or- | ders of his superior officers. If those orders com- mand him to see to it that no one approaches a forbidden area, he is directed to use force if nec- essary. A soldier's force is the bullet in his rifle. Any citizen who ignores a soldier’s order to halt and to change his direction is merely offering himself as a target. Fair-minded people will realize the justice and necessity of this condition and cheerfully obey. Others must take the consequences. hi i he - Se THE GRIP OF THE AUTOORAT. The part of President Wilson's war speech to Congress which the German newspapers resent- ed the most was an allusion coupling the former autocratic Government of Russian with the pres- ent Prussian hegemony. Yet today these same newspapers are fulsome in their praise of the Kaiser for his promises of electoral reforms “when my warriors will have returned; these same newspapers now declare that the salvation of Germany lies in the shaking off of the Junker oligarchy and the Kaiserlicher omnipotence. The autocracy of Germany may not be as ob- vious as that of old Russia, but it is assuredly more emphatic. The Constitution under which the empire operates today was forced on the 26 states of the country by Bismarck, whose an- nounced purpose was to assure the supremacy of Prussia in the Teutonic bund. Under it there are two houses Of Parliament, the Reichstag and the Bundesrath. The members of the former body are chosen by manhood suffrage, but the real legislative body is the Bundesrath, made up of 58 representatives or agents of the ruling houses of the 26 states. In this chamber Prussia has 18 votes out of the 58 AND NO CHANGE MAY BE MADE IN THE CONSTITUTIONIF OPPOSED BY 14 VOTES. Thus, 14 Prussians appointed by the ruling house hold the balance of power in the Govern- Can an autocracy be more complete than ment. this? The ascendancy of the 8 or large land holder, in Prussia is provided for in the Bismarck Constitution hy the three-class system of voting, by the open ballot and by an unjust distribution of seats in Parliament. : Under the three-class system, one-third of the seats in Parliament are selected by those paying the greatest income tax, one-third by those pay- ing the next largest tax and one-third by those paying on the smallest income. Under this sys- tem 3 to 10 per cent of the qualified electors choose two-thirds of the representatives. Even the control of the Junkers could be over- thrown if the rich business classes of Berlin and other large cities in Prussia were given pro- portionate representation, but the distribution of parliamentary seats was made 50 years ago and the Junkers have resisted any change. Thus Ber- lin, which is actually entitled to 24 members, gets but nine, and the control of the Government rests in the hands of the feudal lords, as it did in the days of Bismarck. | Was the autocracy of Peter the Great, the most arbitrary of the Romanoffs, ever more complete than the Kaiser-Junker hegemony’ = = WS NAMES THAT WILL NOT DIE. By rechristening two smaller ships, Secretary Daniels is able to use for the five great battle cruisers under construction the deathless names Constitution, Constellation, Saratoga, Lexington, Ranger. The two‘surviving veterans of 1797, in Boston and Newport; will be known as the Old Constitution and the Old Constellation. These two ships were built to fight France; their successors will go to the aid of France, should the war last so long. The old Constitu- tion was Preble’s flagship when he tamed, the Tripoli pirates. The first Saratoga foundered in a gale, after taking three prisoners. The Lex- ington, John Barry commanding, was taken by the Pearl and retaken by her men from the prize crew. A second Saratoga was with- Perry in Japan; a second Lexington did river service in the war between the states. With the Ranger is forever linked the namé of John Paul Jones. From her he harried the Brit- ish coast at Whitehaven and drew the first sa- lute to the Stars and Stripes by the French navy at Quiberon. Whitehaven is a pale memory in the view of bloodier recent events; the new Rang- er need fear no hesitation in her welcome by any fleet of France. The new battle cruisers may never aim a shot at any foe. Nevertheless they will be, as their namesakes were, the defenders of a free rT = rights on the free seas. * — YELLOW PINE TRUST’S $285,350. Of the $358,000 in fines inflicted by the Missouri Supreme Court on the Yellow Pine Trust for its contemptuous defiance of the laws against un- lawful restraint of trade $228,000 had been paid prior to the present week. Now the remaining outlawed, companies have stepped up and settled the balance due with $57,850, which lenient justice has accepted as a full compliance with her de- mands. Doubtless this total of $285,350 which the sev- eral subsidiaries had to pay is but a modest frac- tion of the sums they were enabled to extort from the public by combine methods. ’ KIEL’S STANDARD OF “WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.” ee — et ati ae JUST A MINUTE OUR WAR REVIEW. HE allies did well enough this week to revive expert opinion of what it is they are doing, and we have a good deal of that. Even the Germans furnished some, which does not agree at all with what any of the other experts think. The German experts call the Battle of Arras, which some of the others thought might prove the decisive battle of the war, no more than a local attack with- out any possible bearing upon the general situation. After reading our own and the allied experts and somehow getting the notion that the allies were on their way to Berlin, we were not quite prepared for any other opinion of it—and the battle has never seemed quite the same since. However, it shall no doubt be like that often before the war ends, and we hope to hear regularly from the German experts. They may keep us from fooling ourselves now and then. One wonders how far the people of Germany are hearing from our war experts and those of our allies. If they have only their own, they have a bitter awak- ening coming to them when the service becomes a lit- tle more general. We are sure we do not want to be deceived at any stage of the game, and if we can con- tinue getting our hands on what the German war ex- perts think we probably will not be. Our own entry into the war is so far without vio- lence, and the Germans do not seem to feel that it will be attended by any. This is, of course, far from our own expectation, which is that something may happen at any minute. We have no notion where our navy is or what it is doing, but we may be sure it is not out seeing whe can gather the most wool. Every resource of our country is being pon- derously turned to the one great end of putting over the principles for which we stand. They may laugh at us in Germany now, as they are reported doing; but they will not laugh in the end. The Germans have a fool notion that preparedness is the whole of war. There are people over here who think the game thing. However, Europe is going to prove that there isn’t anything in it, and we are going to help her do it. It is worth proving. The submarine trump seems not to be taking the trick. It is a good card, but not good enough to bust Written for the POST-DISPATCH by Clark McAdams the somewhat corpulent gentlemen who sit on the other side of the table. Just what we have up our sleeves is not being told, but you may be sure it is something. There isn’t anything the allies need just now quite as much as they need our ingenuity. They seem to have exhausted their own, and so have the Germans. It looks easy for the Yankees. All the other allies are celebrating our entrance into the war, and they are all asking how Mr. Edison is— and Mr. Ford—and that crowd. Those are the boys who will settle this thing. Nobody seems to know just what the Russians are doing. They were supposed to be somewhat dis- organized along the northern front when the Duma bought the Ozar a good felt hat, but if that was the case the Germans did not do anything about it. We were told for a while that they were on their way and would hit the Russian line before night like a ton of brick, but nothing happened. There is some suspicion that the Germans would rather fight the Russian autocracy, which gets a good deal of weed seed in its powder, than the Russian democracy. We don’t know. We would, we are sure, Since the British and Russians met one another around Bagdad somewhere we have heard almost nothing of either.

FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1917. The Best Thing That Any Woman Can Be Endowed With by Nature Is Woman Sense. ' 4 eiern is a good thing for a woman to possess. Good hard horse sense is better, but the best thing that any woman can be endowed with by nature is woman sense. he Woman sense isn’t education nor is it talent. It isn’t common sense. It isn’t “intuition. It isn’t fascination. It is something deeper and broader and more ‘comprehensive than any of these—a subtle something, a guiding force, that al- ways enables a woman to choose the right path and that leads her to success in life. Wen the good fairy bends above a girl baby’s cradle, the supreme gift tnat she leaves in the dimpled hand is not beauty nor genius nor wealth. It is 75 oman sense, us woman sense that teaches a woman how to make the most of ner womanhood, and to recognize that there are certain immutable laws of ge that cannot be altered. Also, that . . ach sex is most admirable when it does not transgress its own limitation. There- fore, the woman who has woman sense makes a first-class woman of herself in- tend of trying to be a second-class ‘ * man. She wears women clothes, and as 4 Spratty as she can get them, instead of “horsey men clothes, She cultivates the manners of a lady instead of those of a ~ stable boy. She may be scintillating in | onversation,-but she does not consider it necessary to swear nor to tell vulgar ‘Stories to make herself entertaining, for she’s wise enough to know that wom- 3 an's greatest and most potent charm is Uness. Woman sense teaches a that the masculine woman is as much a thing of horror as the inate man. 4 Woman sense teaches the woman who has to make a living to do it in a laay- og manner. It inspires her to choose dome occupation in which the hereditary talents of her sex have full play, and a, in which she has the greatest chance of _ success, for she perceives that it is the women who have gone in for making hats and dresses and keeping boarders and doing clerical work who have made real money, and not the lady longshore- n who have not the physique to com- pete with men. Having selected her job, the woman With woman sense goes about it in a decent, @vomanly way. Woman sense: teaches her that she does not have t be hail-fellow-well-met with all her Uline fellow workers, nor is it nec- for her to go about with a es-and-prism expression on her face “a if she — to be insulted at and polite to the men with whom she 17 works, and yet to put a barrier of re- Ps ables her to perceive that a business | is neither a 5 o’clock tea nor a ing place, that flirtatſons and goo- eyes and tears and complaints are qually inadmissable, and that what 8 ‘s hired for iso do good work, and 13 to try out her fascinations on her employer nor the head clerks. mM, Thrice is she armed against the dan- of commercial life who has woman , for it enables her to keep senti- nt at arm’s fength, and to appear so we businesslike that no man ever | talks anything but business to her in a business house. In matrimony an ounce of woman is worth tons and tons of all the ' virtues, for it is the one thing | that enables a woman to make marriage a success. It is the iron hand in the velvet glove that makes it possible for a woman to manage her husband and rule her household without her despot- ism even being suspected. It is woman sense that makes a woman realize that all men have a cer- tain childlike vanity that chiefly ex- hibits itself in desiring to pose as the head of the house. Therefore the woman who has woman sense never arrogates that empty honor to herself. She never says, “I did so and so,"’ or “I have decided to do this and that.“ no matter how much it may be the case, On the contrary, she always prefaces every remark, especially in her hus- band’s hearing, with, “John says so and so, or John has decided this or that.“ Also, she makes a point of con- sulting John about everything from the shape of her hats to how the chil- dren shall be educated, and this pleases John and gives her the right to go on and do as she likes. It is woman sense that teaches a woman that the biggest man, and the cleverest one, and the strongest one, is also the biggest baby, and that he wants the woman he loves to pet him and mother him and show him off before company. It is woman sense that teaches her that a man has to be flat- tered and jollied along, and that if his wife doesn’t do it, he will hunt up some other woman who will. It is woman sense that teaches a woman that she cannot fight the battle of life as a man does, that her weapons are not her fists but her tongue, and that she can gain more by geftleness and diplomacy than she can by force. Very few men are ever just to women, but very many men are generous to them. No woman can trust to ever get- ting what's due her because it is her right, but she can collect all that is coming to her, and then some, if she has the woman sense to do it, It is woman sense that makes women perceive that women cannot shock pub- lic opinion, nor go against long-estab- lished conventions, without hurting themselves. They must take the way | around, It is woman sense that keeps "women sweet and womanly, and that makes them effective in whatever they undertake, and it will take a woman farther along the road of success than any other talent.

And I am proud, too, that my husband, the grandson of Gen.

J came to America,“ Mrs. Sartoris continued, to interest my fellow Amer- icans in a fund to restore the historic buildings of France after the war. Some of these buildings, of course, will not be restored. It is planned to leave the great ruin of Rheims Cathedral exactly as it is, except that it will be propped up, and to place underneath the mirac- ulously preserved statue of the Virgin a sign, ‘This way the Germans passed.’ “I think it would be a splendid thing if France could owe to America the restoration of her cathedrals and pub- lic buildings. I have the official sanc- tion of Mr. Armand Dayot, Under Sec- retary of State, to raise a fund for this purpose, and I have thought, oh I have hoped, that if the World suc- ceeds in its noble purpose of a gift from America to France of $1,000,- 060,000, that some small portion of the sum might be dedicated to restoring our buildings. “But whether this can be done or not, America’s entrance into the war if @ great day for my native country, and for me, as a Frenchwoman, and the granddaughter by marriage of Gen.

Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemoh pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months, It really will bleach and re- move such blemishes as pimples, freckles and tan and is the ideal skin softener, smoothener and beautifier which absorbs readily and is not sticky or greasy. Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of thia harm- less lemon lotion and apply it daily to the face, neck, arms and hands. It really does soften, freshen, bleach and bring out the roses and beauty of any skin. It is wonderful to smoothen rough, red hands.—-ADV. _ ST.LOUIS POST “DISPATCH . — SAYINGS OF RS. SOLOMON TRANSLATED GY HELEN ROWLAND Y Son, has thoy heard “the call of the wild wedding march?“ Are thine ears filled with longings for the strains of “Lohengrin.” and thine eyes dazzled with visions of love-in-a-kitchenette-apart- | ment? Dost thou catch thyself whistling softly before breakfast “Love, Here Is My Heart,” and doing the John McCormack while thou dressest for dinner? Hast thou begun to hearken unto fibbers, who tell thee that two can live more cheaply than one? ’ Dest thou sad thyself counting over thy salary, and in thy folly adding two and two shekels so that they make FOURTEEN? Dost thou cease to berate the barber for scenting thy locks, and suc- cumb to the temptation to anoint thy chin with lilac water after shaving? Hast thou begun to part thine hair a new way and become exceeding fussy concerning the shade and set of thy cravats? Dést thou linger over the glowing advertisements of instalment furni- ture, and of electric coffe pots and new art rugs, and ot tableware and linoleums? Hast thou blushed to find thyself beginning a business letter “Darling Sir,” or ordering a ton of violets when thou hadst meant to order scrap fron? Dost thou sit for half an hour each morning upon the edge of thy bed holding one shoe in thy hand and gazing with mouth open at nothing at all? Do policemen watch thee sharply out of the corners of their eyes, and taxi drivers shout and blaspheme, as thou walkest dreamily amongst them, escaping death by a hair’s breadth at every street corner? Dost thou oversleep mornings because thou hast lain awake half the night dreaming of the price of porch hammocks and lawn-mowers and pink breakfast caps? Dost thou pause before milliners’ windows and drapers’ speculate on the cost of feminine hats and hosiery? Dost thou find thyself forgetting to eat thy luncheon, leaving thy din- ner untasted, wearing odd gloves and reading thy newspaper upside down? Hast thou decided to give up ¢igars and wine, and to confine all thy Joy to a pipe and a mug of ale? Dost thou WORRY over the price of potatoes? Canst thou think of RICE without a shudder? Then I charge thee flee from. temptation while tHe fleeing is yet good! For by these signs thou art strickn with the spring marrying fever! Yea, thou art the spring lamb prepared for the shearing! And if thou are not wiser than the fox, and more artful than the ser- pent, behold, thou shalt be “in the matrimonial trenches before Christmas!“ Selah, shops to Reflections of a Bachelor Grrl. tempered by woman. A bachelor’s heart is like a violin with the strings broken—It is useless to “ane to play“ on it. The bigger and weightier a man the more helpless he is without some lit- tle tugboat of a woman to tie him to her and tow him safely into harbor. Telling lies is a fault in a boy, an art in a lover, an accomplishment m a bachelor, and second-nature in a married man. through which a girl’s pug nose becomes “re and embonpoint becomes merely Money is a chiffon veil, trousse, red hair is turned to “Titian,” **plumpness.’’ In a quarrel it is an awful disappointment to a woman if a man doesn’t say something to make her cry. If your husband is wrapped up in his work from 9 a. m. to 6 p. m. you needn’t bother to investigate his morals. Satan wouldn’t waste his talents trying to tempt a man with so little time and energy for the devil's: business. Nowadays, a man's attempt to make love to you is not always an imperti- nence. He may be doing it merely out of pity, out of curiosity, out of polite- ness, out of habit—or just because he can’t think of anything else to do.

PRESIDENT DOESN'T EXPECT - OFFICIALS f ENLIST Government, He Says in Let. ter to Congressman. WASHINGTON, April 18.—President Wilson, replying to offers of members of Congress and other officials who have had military experience to serve in the in the civil departments of Government at this time is just as sarees as mil- itary activity. A typical letter sent 8 the President to members of Congress is that written to Representative Hainey .of Illinois. It says: “Your letter of April 9 does you great honor, as you do, and yet I want very earnest- ly to remind you that we are now en- gaged not merely in creating an army but also in mobilizing a nation to per- form all it functions at the highest pitch of efficiency. Surely in such circum- stances it is just as much men's duty to assigned to by your constituents as it it for a man to volunteer for an army. I take this view of it with the greatest confidence.”’ DUPONT STOCK SUIT DECISION Acquisition by Securities Company Held to Be legal. WILMINGTON, Del., April 13.—Judge J. Whitaker Thompson of Philadelphia filed an opinion in the United States District Court here yesterday deciding in favor of the plaintiffs in the $57,000,- 1000 Dupont stock suit. The court holds that the acquisition of the stock by the Dupont Securities Co. was illegal and that the board of directors was disqualified from passing on it. The stock was purchased by the Securities company from Gen. T. Cole- man Dupont for $14,000,000 and is now said to have a value of $57,000,000, The decision decrees that a special commissioner shall conduct a special meeting of the stockholders of the E. I. Dupont de Nemours & Co. to decide for themselves whether or not they want to purchase the stock formerly keld by T. Coleman Dupont, which stock is the basis of the whole action. The decision enjoins the use of this stock for voting purposés at the meet- ing. Wife Testifies G. H. Angermueller Associated With Other Woman.

She said he took her to dancés but spent his time with other women there, and did not dance with her.

There are still many conservative fam- ilies who look with horror on this inno- vation. But many more have followed the fashion, imposed by the necessities of war. You hear an elderly and ex- clusive Countess telling her friends that Lucia, Maria or Francesca goes out alone because all the young men are at the front now, so there is no fear.“ As a matter of fact, there are many fas- cinating young officers and civilians on leave, or away from their regiments for some reason or other. But the men are becoming used to seeing mice“ girls about alone, and take no more notice than if they had a couple of chaperons.

In the regulation number of rounds, only two men reached first base.

Our interest in the freaks, for the, moment, is confined to the case of Gotch, who broke all records by an- nouncing, beforehand, that Carl Chad- dock would win the mat title from Joe Stecher, insinuating that the lat- ter was an invertebrate. Caddock won, and Stecher was ac- cused of “quitting!” The mefft OF this performance is found by comparison with the _ fail- ures of Jim Corbett, Tommy Ryan, John L. Sullivan and other ae ge lights “who “are still maidens“ in | the winner-picking handicaps. Evidentally wrestling is much less a game of chance than fight- ing: in fact, it has been nccused ef being a “sure thing” sport. Let the evidence ride for what it’s worth. ! . * One Czar Still Reigns. T was Ban Johnson who said: War or no wap, strike or no strike, the American League will go through with its baseball schedule as planned.“ Ban, you know, is the only reigning Czar left, since Nick was pried off his throne in Russia. If you want anything Aone in baseball get Ban Johnson on your side, then have the point referred to the National Commission. Ban casts only one vote against two for the Na- tional League, but it outweighs both. 35 ag a good despot, so we believe m. But there are those who think that conscription will set in and devastate the baseball leagues, whether Ban wills it otherwise or not. They think e the demands on baseball players for en- listment might conceivably break up the major league clubs and thus ruin the league. But that won't happen for thtee reasons. Here they are: 1. Uncle Sam would rather have the baseball club owners’ money than their men. nid taxing the clubs’ in- come or receipts, he can swell the nation’s revenues a bit. 2. Uncle Sam, in war times, would rather the nation went about its customary pleasures and work as in normal times. * 3. It U. S. conscripted all the players between 19 and 2 in the majors it would still leave the average club about per cent of its normal strength. * 4 * * Teams Could Stand Conscription T H last ts the final safeguard or ‘ assurance of permanency of baseball under war conditions. It means that enough good players weuld survive conscription to assure major league baseball. Furthermore, it is the prevailing belief that as ball players are in only small proportion residents of major league cities, the loss would be still less severe. If conscription hit St. Louis, example, even supposing ALL of the layers made this their home, the Browns would loge only ona regular, Sisler, and only three other players of even secondary importance, Cardinals would lose Hornsby, Betzel, Meadows, Defate, the worst blow that would be suffered in either league.

Auto- matically these two players were sus- | pended when they failed to return their signed contracts by April 11, opening day. Wagrer, of course, is aot a genuine bad boy. Hans did not sign because he does not want to play. He’s mar- ried now, has money and wants to look at baseball, instead of playing it. Vitt is the only REAL holdout in baseball. Too bad this player is weakening the Detroit club at a time when it had a real pennant. chance. Unless the new man, Jones, comes through unexpectedly, Jennings is likely to be handicapped by a weak spot at third base. However, the magnates are as much to blame as the players for failure to entice the disgruntled ones into the fold. Any player will accept the truce, if offered in the form of a bonus. Promise him the extra reward if he EARNS it by his season per- formance, and he’ll flop into line. RELAY SWIM RECORD EQUALLED BY I. A. C.

Mary seemed to be more Wrought up than usual. „Come, I soothed her with a pat en the shoulder, “what the trouble. Tell me all about 1t.“ Mt's Harry.“ she sobbed. “Is he sick.“ „„Oh, no, its much worse than that.“ 1 grew alarmed. „He isn’t dead, is he?’ „Noe, but he might as well be. He's to enlist.’’ “In the army?” I asked fatuously. Yen, can you imagine that child in the trenches. You know how easily he catches cold. You must talk to him, John. He won't listen to me.” „Mary.“ I said seriously, I see no geason whatever why your son should mot enlist. He is 19 years old and husky. he has no dependents and— “No dependents!’ cried Mary. Who's going to take care of me!“ I could not repress a smile. “When did Harry begin taking care ef you?’ I asked. “As far as I know he has never earned a cent in his life. However if you are ever in ‘distress you may call on me for all necessary “You're impossible, John. Have you no sentiment? I should have known better than to expect help ffom a crusty old bachelor.“ “Look at this matter sensibly, Mary. Why shouldn’t Harry go to war? Some- body has to go to fight for the country. Why shouldn't it be your son?“ ny should it be my son?“ she re- terted. \ That's neither here nor there. If he wants to enlist let him. It will make & man of him, teach him discipline and at the same time he will be of service to his country—a country that has been mighty good to you and yours.” But he’ll be killed.“ ..“Possibly. Some mothers’ sons are 0 to be killed, undoubtedly. War = cruel, but in this case necessary and We must all make sacrifices,’’ | Mu die if Harry goes to war. Won't you persuade him not to enlist?’ Very well” I said with a shrug Af you ihsist, I'll do what 1 can.” A few minutes later Harry joined us fh the living room. Harry,“ 1 eaid sternly what's this hear about your gping to war?“ am going to enlist this afternoon,”’ eaid Harry stoutly. I wish you'd per- guade mother that it’s all right. She cutting up something fierce about it. No, Harry,” I said, I can't do that. Have you thought of the suffering you'll bring to your mother? Lots of 4 will be killed. Of course they'll die fighting for their country but you must consider that your mother needs your company. She is not very strong and is getting old and feeble.”’ Mary ts 9 and looks 30. I saw a ae of indignation through the tear- “I understand,” I resumed, that Mrs. ‘Boggins’ boy its g-ing to enlist in the navy.” ; “How is she going to live?’ asked Marry.

(Co t. 1017, the M Newspa e Tork City.) * Learning About Turtles. IN a hotel aquarium at the home town of Congressman Joseph H. Howell of Utah there had just been placed a snapping turtle, the Repre- sentative told a joke-loving friend. There came along a negro who was unge- quainted with the nasty disposition of the amphibian and wno poked his fin- ger too close to its businéss end, At once the digit was grabbed. ‘Leggo! Leggo!’ the negro shouted, as he danced about, swinging thé turtle. “What's the matter, Sambo?” inquired the hotel keeper, as he ran toward the scene of commotion. Don't know, boss, Sambo replied, as the turtle was jarred loose and fell back into the water. “I can’t jes’ say whether I been bit or finned.“ THE lady who likes children was gushing over Helen, aged 3. “How od are you, darling?’ she "T.ien't old,” said Helen. Worst Is Yet to Come. MES. JEFFERSON: It’s perfectly outrageous! Mr. Jefferson: What's outrageous? “The high price of things.“ “I think so.” “IT. wouldn't buy any more potatoes, dear.“ “No,” Nor I wouldn't pay outrageous prices for onions and eggs.“ No, dear.“ Let us cut out meat and poultry while they're sv high.“ “I’m agreed.“ We must soon save some dea rie.“ “I know it.“ Because, you see, Daster is coming and I must have a new hat!” After the Funeral.
