A FRENCH SEAPORT, June 27.—The second contingent of American troops arrived and dis- embarked this morning. The troops landed amid the frantic cheers of the people, who had gathered for hours before in anticipation of the duplication of yesterday’s surprise. Enthusiasm rose to fever pitch when it was learned that the transports and convoys had suc- cessfully passed the submarine zone. The port was speedily beflagged in honor of the occasion. All the troops now arrived were transferred today to a camp not far distant from this point, where Major-General William L. Sibert is installed. Thence they probably will go soon to a point near the front. All the troops are in excellent shape, enthusiastic over the successful trip and their reception and eager for action. ; Major-General Pershing, the American commander, is expected tomorrow when additional | troops are expected. The karbor is dotted with convoys. The streets are filled with soldiers in khaki and with blue- jackets. Great numbers of trucks. are transporting immense supplies to the: camp in which the troops are to establishes, ... * ~ RORY == ae es “ BP A PO ER ae yy . es Senete’ ele eter — (enn tral Preas "Photograph, oS eee ee nen Se ae SE SE See Oe _ —_— = | Gar Wn Aptis SENATE COMMITTEE PLACES [wrasux as» == || TOBEONENOTHEAY!

As A matter of fact a Post-Dispatch reporter, after a third-degree of tne larger liquor dealers of St. Louis, was unable to find one who could define a “light wine” beyond the statement that it was the kind he manufactured or sold. A local manufacturer of champagne Opined that a light wine was one that had tess than 13 per cent of alcohol. “What is the percentuge in your prod- uct?’’ he was asked. “About 12 per cent. I'm sure that our product is a light wine.”’ ‘A dealer who handles domestic wines Said that the only heavy wines in America were those imported. “I don’t think the percentage of alco- hol makes any difference. It’s al! in Domestic wines @re drunk in their youth.” -Henry Dietz, maiager of the Bevo Mill, an Anheuser-Busch enterprise where “only light wines and beers are rerved,” said that he regarded all wines with a cantent of alcohol of More than 14% ;e1 cent as heavy, from personal observation as to the effects of certain wines and from the standards in use in European Cafes. Some information had been from Washington, but this Dietz barred at the Bevo Plant, because of their large alcoholic content, were port, sherry, Angelica tic prohibition amendments to pruhib!: the manufacture of beer as well as dis- tilled liquors and giving the President discretion to permit the manufactur? of wine only, the administration food bill was agreed on today by the Sena‘te Agricultural Committee and favorably reported as a substitute for the bill now under consideration. Senator Wadsworth of New York pro- posed the wine exemption. Senator Sheppard of Texas. a leading prohibitionist, made the fight in com- mittee against the subcommittee plan of allowing the President to determine whether further manufacture of bee: as well as wine, shall be allowed. It was rejected, by a vote of 8 to 7. The committee also amended the Hous: bill to give the President power only to commandeer supplies for the army and navy. The House bill permitted him to commandeer necessities for other pur- poses. Another amendment would make it unlawful for any person acting either as voluntafy or a paid agent in the em- nloyment of the Government in any C.- pacity to purchase and sell to the Gov ernment any supplies.

GERMANS STOPPED FIRING TO LET BRITISH GET WOUNDED MAN Dog Sent Which Was Granted; Fighting Then Resumed. BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES IN FRANCL, June 27.—In a section of the line where there has been some pretty severe fighting this week, the British aud German front trenches are only yards apart. A Scotch soidier left bad- 'y wounded in this narrow stretch of No Man's Land moaned so piteously that the British front line officer could ecarcely restrain his men from certain death in attempting to boring him in. While the officer was trying hard to think of some plan for rescuing the wounded man, his eye fell on a stray dog which had been fraternizing fur several days with soldiers in both Ge-- man and English lines, tinding friend. in each. He quickly wrote a note, “Will you allow us to bring our man in?” and tied it around the dog's neck, sending him across to the German lines with the message. In a few minutes the dor returned with the reply, “Will give you five minutes.” The officer and two men took a stretcher and went over the top, Across Lines With Requesé| Inspection Party Under War Department Orders Not to Discuss Their Mission, Capt. Bayriver and Lieut. Tabuteau, members of the French Aviation Corps, who arrived in St. Louis last night, to- day went to Belleville to inspect tne aviation field being erected there. They are accompanied by Capt. C. G. Edgar of the staff of Brigadier-Gen- eral George O. Squier, Chief Signal Ut- i es United States Army, and were guests last evening of Albert Bond Lambert, spending the night at Hotel Jefferson. They are here for one day and are under orders of the War Departmen; not to discuss their mission or any sup ject touching the war. Neither cao speak English. They are in uniform. The Belleville aviation field is one of 23 contemplated in the $600,000,000 ap- prcpriation Congress will be asked to make for development of the army fly- ing service. French and English avia- tors will help train American flyers at these fields. Expected triction with Belleville unionism developed yesterday when a4 number of union carpenters of Belle ville refused to go to work at the avia- tion field because, although the highest union wages are paid, the work at the camp is being done on the open-shop principle. Artisans who can satisfy the contractors of their efficiency are em- Prospect That Recruits From St. Louis District Will Be Far Below Requirement. Twelve men were accepted as volun- teers for the regular army at the 8t Louis recruiting office, in the old Cus- toms House, Third and Olive streets, this morning. This brings the figure for this week, up to noon today, to 9. The Government has asked 9338 regular army recruits this week from the 8t. Louis re- cruiting district, which includes East St. Louis and Eastern Missouri. Maj. George W. Goode, chief recruit- ing officer, has gone to other recruitiag stations in the district, beginning with Jefferson City and Kirksville, to try ¢, stimulate, recruiting. Forty-eight were accepted in the en tire district yesterday and 3 the days before. This morning's figures are only for the St. Louis office. Capt.- Craigie said the prospect appeared to be that the numper of recruits for the week fron: St. Lovis would be far below the Gov- ernment’s r-quirement, The recruiting officers say a siump has come ia the regular army recruit- ing At one time after war was de- clared, the enlistments in the St. Louis district ran over 100 a day, with 16% as the highest record for one day. Letter carriers have been ordered by Postmaster Selph to attempt to obtain one regular army recruit a day. Help has also been offered by the Nationa! Security League and the War Boa of the Chamber of Commerce. or It if entirely permissible to say that they are part of the force which will be under command of Maj.-Gen. Pershing, and for whose arrival the general and his staff have been arranging ever since they landed on the other side. will be an entirely independent command, just as are the British troops, working, of course, with the French at the head of oper. ations as they are on French soil. The American troops When the troops have had their period of preparation be- hind the lines they will take a place on the battle front, to be urranged by Gen. Pershing, in consultation with the other mili- tary chiefs there, and probably will very soon be carrying the Stars and Stripes in the assaults which steadily are driving the Germans out of Francé and Belgium. All the troops under Gen. Pershing's command are regulars, and comprise the division which President Wilson directed to pro- ceed to France, ‘‘at the earliest possible time.’’ Information of what other troop movements may be made is surrounded by cen- sorship to insure, so far as possible, a safe voyage through the submarine zone. It is not permissible to say what precautions were taken to get the American troop ships past the waiting German submarines, but there is no doubt that the precautions were most carefully worked out, because it is generally believed that some time ago most of the German submarine fleet was withdrawn from its attacks on commercial shipping to make it ready to ambush the American troop ships in force. ‘ The successful landing, while a source of gratification to of- ficials here, viewed from the point of being a military operation, is regarded with added significance for its moral effect in Germany, if it is permitted to become known there. The reference in the cable dispatches to a duplication of “‘ yes- terday’s surprise,’’ intimating that there was also a landing yee terday, passes without comment here, but obviously discloses a landing of a contingent not recorded in yesterday's dispatches. Maj-General Sibert, who according to today's dispatches took the first contingent of American troops to France, was made a major-general soon after the Pershing expedition was decided on. | He was born in Alabama Oct. 12, 1860, and entered West Point as a cadet in 1880. He bacem a second lieutenant four years later, a s first lieutenant in 1888 a captain in 1896, and a lieutenant-colone! in 1909. In March, 1915, he was made a brigadier-general. He is one of the most distinguished engineers in the army, and one of the builders of the Panama Canal. It is expected that he will be in command of all the engineers to be sent to France. President Wilson in May directed that a division of reguler troops, about 25,000 men, with a regiment of marines, about 2500 men, proceed to France. Major-General Pershing, who will com- mand the American expeditionary force, has been in France with his staff and a number of orderlics for some time. There has been a feeling throughout the country for some ployed whether or not they have union cards. No official action has been taken by the carpenters’ union. It was left to the discretion of the men whether’ to work with non-union men. The men work 10 hours a day at the camp, but the wages are based on the eight-hour urion scale, with time and a half for overtime and double pay for holidays and Sundays. The refusal of Bellevilie union men to work will not be permitted to inter- fc-2 with the completion of the camp ita @ days. The Government will brook no delay and if Belleville men decline to work artisans will be brought in from other sections.

I was great- ly surprised when in this connection she mentioned the name of Prof. Seabury, who had been my son's tutor at Culver Military Academy. “Mrs. Hamsley said Seabury spent a week with her and Mr. Matlack in Chicago and was almost constantly in their company. He had been engageu as a highbrow expert in psychology to observe them closely and decide wheth- er they really were soul mates. Mrs. Hamsley told me that at the end of the week the professor declared that she nd my husband were true soul mates and he then ‘married’ them and deCclareu tH@m psychologically and _= spiritually one,”’ While telling of the week in which the professor was making his psychc- logical survey in the soul-mate field Mrs. Matlack laughed and said: ‘And all that time they were all eating at daddy’s expense.” ‘‘Daddy’’ is the term she uses most often in referring to Matlack. ‘“T asked Mrs. Hamsley for further de- tails about the psychological wedding and she then explained what she meant by saying that Hugh Vandiver was her husband. Continued Mrs. Matlack: “She told me the professor’ said for the man to change his name. He suggested that my husband assume the gurname of some woman member of his family. The name Chosen was Vandi- ver, which was-his mother’s maiden name. I don’t know why they tacked the ‘Hugh’ on it. “My husband in my presence listened to Mrs. Hamsley’s account of the spirit: val marriage and he did not deny it. In fact, when she was through talking he said her statement of the situation had been correct.

Knauft Succeed in Winning Her Divorce Decree. ‘Bertha V. Knauft of 3652 Evans avenue obtained a divcrce from Benja- Knauft in Judge Hennings’ Mrs. min F. court vesterday, on the ground that Knauft did not contribute to her support, was domineering, and on cther allegations, one of which was that she had spent about $50,000 starting Knauft in business and paying nis aebts. | Mrs. Konauft testified that she spent these large sums on her husband to keep him in gocd humor. She averred that, ‘‘just to show that he was boss,” he disarranged tne household furniture and interfered in the kitchen. She czlse alleged that he would criticise the man ner in which she dressed, although he did not pay for her clothes, and that he humiliated her by saying all she was good for was “to play cards with fool women.”’ That part of the testimony dealing with her expenditure of large sums of money on her husband disclosed, accorc- ing to Mrs. Knauft's statements, that she loaned him $30,000 to $40,000 to start a building business, which was a failure. This money was borrowed from the Ger- man Savings Institution, she testified, and is secured by her note. Another transaction, she said, was the sale of 52 shares of insurance stock to procure $12,000, which she gave her husband to pay a debt at the Mercantile Trust Co. Mrs. Knauft is a daughter of the late John Wahl, who was a commission mer- chant and president of the German Sav- ings Institution. He died seven years ago, leaving an estate of $300,000. The plaintiff's maiden name was re- stored. She and Knauft separated last September. He is in St. Paul, Minn. Wahl left the bulk of his estate in trust for his wife, who is still living. At her death the property is to go to her children, including Mrs. Knauft, or their heirs. John S. Leahy, Mra. Knauft’'s attorney, said each of the chil- dren received about $60,000 outright by their father’s will.

The San Fran- cisco Examiner prints the photograph of the man in Monterey who has en- listed. Here most strikingly is shown the failure of recruiting, for Monterey should yield 400 to 30 young men. The result of the recruiting campaign is such a sorry one there is not the slight- est prospect of success for the voluntary recruiting system."’ The German press prints another typical item, fed to it by the Niewsburo of Amsterdam and supposed to come from Washington, regarding women's demonstrations before the White House. It says women carried banners bearing inscriptions insulting to President WItIiI- gon and to Elihu Root. The success of the Liberty Loan is still being deprecated to the German public. The Vossische Zeitung'’s finan- cial expert writes: “For the Russians, a Liberty Loan after victory in the revolution was an apt characterization; but America’s Liberty Loan was a bluff. If there's anything America has to liberate itself from it is the plutocratic yoke person- ified by Morgan and Wilson. The suc- cess of the American loan accordingly corresponded to its moral basis. The Liberty Loan immediately dropped be- low its emission price, and we can ex- pect with certainty that the next Amer- ican loan, less proudly, must be issued at a much higher rate of interest. Nat- urally loan conditions for the allies will become correspondingly more costly.” KING GEORGE GOOD MARKSMAN Hits Bull’s-Eyean Twice at Trwenty- Five-Yard Renge.,.

Without De- cisive Victory for Either of Belligerents. WILL WORK TO THAT END Declares in Resolutions Against Germany by With- drawal From Cenflict. PETROGRAD, June 27.—A resolution categorically rejecting any move for a Seperate peace between Gérmany and Russia has been adopted by an over- whelming majority of the Congress of Workmen's and Soldiers’ deputies of all ‘Russia. The resolution at the same time declares that restoration of peace at the earliest possible day is the mrost im- portant need of the Russian revolution- ary democracy. The text of the resolution, which was proposed by revolutionary Socialists and the Minimalist Social Democrats, fol- lows: ‘The present war arose in consequence of aspirations of imperialists prevail- ing among the ruling classes of all coun- tries, and tending toward the usurpa- tion of markets and submission to their ecouomic and political influence of small and decadent nations. The war is lead- ing to complete exhaustion of the peo- ples of all countries, and is placing the Russian revolution on the edge of the rrecipice. While making millions of victims and absorbing billions of the wealth of the country, it threatens to in- crease still more the disorder in which Russia was left by the old regime, lead- ing to famine and turning the country from productive labor for consolidation of its newly won liberty. Ending of War First Problem, “The congress recognizes consequent- ly that the struggle for more rapid ending of the war constitutes the most important problem for the revolutionary democracy—a problem imposed as much id the interests of the revolution as by e aspirations of the workers of all ceuntries to put an end to mutual ex- termination and restore their fraternal union for the common struggle for com- plete liberation of humanity. “The Congress recognizes first, that ending the war by ‘means of the defeat of one of the belligerents would const}. tute the point df departure fe fresi wars, increase dissension amang. the nations and lead them to complete ex- haustion, famine and ruin; second, that & Separate peace would strengthen one of the belligerents and give it the pos- sibility of gaining a decisive victory over the others, would strengthen aspi- rations towards usurpation by the ruling classes, and while iiberating Russa from the group of world-wide imerial- istn, would hinder international unifics- tion of workers. ‘“Consequent'’,, the Congress rically rejects every policy tending i fact to the conclusion of a separate peace, or to its prelude, a separate ar mistice.”’ Tte Workmen's and Soldiers’ deputies will send a delegation to Sweden, France and England to prepare for the convo- cation of an international conference or. the basis of the program adopted by the Executive Committee. Previous Resolutions. The resolutions previously adopted by the meeting say that the congress con- siders it. indispensable that the pro- visional Government forthwith take ev- ery measure to accelerate the revision of treaties with entente allied Govern- ments, with a view to categorical de+ nunciation of any usurpation policy and putting into practice the foreign policy cutlined by the démocracy. They cali for the speedy overhauling and demo- cratization of the personnel of the Min- istry of Foreign Affairs and the diplo- matic body. They also,declare that the war will not be ended by the efforts of interna- tional democracy alone. They say the Russian revolutionary democracy must in every way contribute to the reinforee- ment of the fighting strength of the army—which must be both offensive and defensive, because the breaking of the Russian front would mean the defeat of the revolution and prove a fatal blow to the entire cause of international democ- racy. The congress especially consid- ers that the question of an offensive should be settled exclusively from the viewpoint of purely military and strategic considerations. The Cossacks’ congress has passed a resolution expressing full eonfidence in the provisional Government and assur- ing the Government that the Cossacks throughout Russia will strongly support its efforts to suppress anarchy and at- tempts at a counter-revolution. The deciaration of the Ukraine Nation- al Assembly, claiming autonomy for Ukraine without separation from the rest of Russia, has been communicated to the Ukraine Military Congress.

ENTERED WAR Socialist Member Commission to Russia Greeted With Ap- plause by Body. PETROGRAD, June 27.—Charies Ed- ward Russell, Socialist and a member of the American commission, outlined the aims of the United States and the reasons which brought the country into the war before a full council of Work- men’s and Soldiers’ delegates Monday afternoon, Russell was warned in ad- vance that he might expect an unfriend- ly demonstration on the part of the ex- tremists among his auditors, but for the most part his hearers were sympathetic and often interrupted the speaker with applause. Ruasell was told he was the only foreigner who had addressed the body who had not been heckled. The declaration of Russell that the United States was fighting only because the democracies of the world were in danger, and that after democracy was safe the people would turn to soctal re- form, was cheered. M. Tcheidse, president of the Coun- cil of Workmen's and Soldiers’ delegates, in reply, sald the democracy of Russia was built upon the same foundations as that of the United States and that Rus- sia would carry on the war until mutual aims were achieved. _ RUSSIAN BILL PROVIDES FOR FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE Rights Longer Depend on Religion. PETROGRAD, June 2%7.—The Ministry of the Interior has submitted to tha provisional Government a bill estab- lishing freedom of conscience in which it is proclaimed that possession of civil and political rights no longer depend on religion. For a change of religion, official permission will not be needed. Up to nine years of age a child's re- ligion is determined by its parents, if there is disagreement, the child takes the mother’s religion. Over 9 years of age the religion cannot be changed without the consent of the child itself. Over 17 years religion can be changed without the parents’ or guardian's con- sent. Another reform provides for cotirts of administration for the protection of a citizen against illegalities of officials of the central Government or of local seif- governing bodies. The. Minister of public tnstruction has submitted a bill proclaiming complete freedom of teaching. Heretofore, the ministry determined who could and who could not teach in private families.

The ie- gation demanded the surrender of his trunk, but without sucetss.

Violent twitching of the eyes was considered a bad sign for an airman. horizontal and vertical, were tested. Color Blindness Test. . A practical test was given to see if the men were color blind. The ap- Plicant was. given a skein of yarn of a certain color, He then was shown a color chart and made to ‘tell what | colors were lighter and darker than the one he had. In all of the tests, if the’ man was proficient or his eyes Save the right reaction, that test was dropped for another; but for those in which there were signs of being un- normal, the tests became more searching. The sharpness of vision was tested with an oculist’s ordinary chart of leters of decreaging size, All tests were made without glasses. The examination of the ear as the center of the balance organism came next, the first test being to see if it were diseased. According to Dr. W. H. Lyman, first lieutenant in the Medical Officers’ Reserve Corps, who is in charge of the aviation examina- . tions, an understanding of the bal- ance mechanism is essential. One re- tains one’s balance by three things, his eyesight, his muscle sense and through he three semi-circular canals in the inner ear. These canals are at right angles to each other and are filled with a fluid. They are lined by hairlike projections which bend as the head is moved, sending the message~to the brain. | The applicant was blindfolded and told to stand still and if he swayed it was a sign that his balance sense was not normal. He was then shown a straign how long the vertigo lasted. These tests were for the horizontal canals.

Representatives of several improve- ment organizations, in the north and south ends of the city, met last night at the Cabanne Branch Library, and voted to demand that any compromise between the city and the United Rail- ways Co. be made to include the build- ing of needed extensions. The north- ern organizations desire the Lee line extended to Goodfellow avenue, and the sbuthern ones wish the Grand line ex- tended to a connection with the Broad- way line. Christy M.

At a meeting of the Executive com- mittee of the Missour! Association of Public Utilities in Kansas City, yes- terday, a committee was appointed to formulate plans for asking the State Public Service Commission for au- thority to increase rates for elec- tricity, gas, water and street railway fares.

The meeting was at- tended by representatives of all the pub- lic service corporations of St. Louis. Bruce Cameron, traffic manager of the United Railways, who is president of the association, said that he attended merely in his official capacity, and un- derstood that the higher rates would be Gemanded principally by the utility cor- porations in smaller cities. He said that no schedule of-increased rates was discussed, as that was left to the In- vestigating Committee to determine. Fuel and Other Supplies. After the meeting a statement was Siven out to the effect that the Execu- tive Committee had met with the com- mittees on fuel and supplies and rates and revenues, and discussed plans for obtaining for the public utilities of the State adequate supplies of fuel and atiog, “On account: of the scarcity of fuel, oll and other supplies, and the tremen. dous increase in the cost of fuel. labor ‘and other supplies,- many of the com- panies are finding it difficult to meet Op- erating expenses, and the committee ‘s working on plans to present an applica: tion to the Public Service Commission of the State for incrgase in rates,” the statement read.

In behalf of the Government the Eat! of Derby, Minister of War, expressed belief that the whole country would as- sociate itself with the suggestion that England should not try to imitate Ger- man brutality. He added on the autho-- ity of the head of the air craft service in France that for every bomb the Ger- mans dropped behind the British liner. the British dropped a hundred behind the German lines. This bombing, he said had a solely military object. Baron, Montague of Beaulieu said jt was absolute humbug to talk of London being an undefended town, and he 4e- clared that the Germans had a perfect right to raid it.

POST-DISPATCH ASSAIL BETHMANN ON REFORM ISSUE Tageblatt Takes Chancellor to Task for Calling President Wilson an Autocrat. TE COPENHAGEN June 7%. — Ger- many’s leading editors in their cus- tomary Monéay articles deal harshly with the Government in general, and Chancellor von Pethman-Hollweg in particular. ‘Theodor Wolff, in the Tageblatt, reais the Chancellor @ lecture for declaring through the North German (Gazette that President Wilson is more «i an autocrat than Emperor Nicholas was, the writer pointing out that President Wilson, in the most impoitant question to be decided, whether war should be de- clared, had to ohtecin a favorable vote from the Congress and was unable to do anything without the approval of that body. Herr Wolff's reference to this fact ‘s made in an appeal to the German peo- ple immediately to set about the work of the inner reformation cf the state as its most pressing task, and to join ‘n the international work of smothering the ‘“firebranti demoralizing Chauvinism’’ wherever it appears. Kugene Zimmermann in the Loka! An- zeiger, which is now controlled by the pan-Germans, takes exactly the opposite view and holds up Russia-as a horrible example to those Germans who are de- sirous of putting the democratic spirit into the German institutions. The ex- isting system, he declared, is responsible for Germany's brilliant victories. In closing his article with an attack on Chancellor von Beti:mann-Hollwegg, Herr Zimmermann asserts that the newspapers which are working for ‘‘bud democracy" in Germany have absoluiely no support by the German people—the Writer evidentiv choosing to ignore the Size of the German Socialist vote—and that these newspapers are the only de. fenders of the Chancellor, supporting him because they consider him the right man to fit in with their plans. Herr zimmermann calls for a “real states- man,” a man of deeds and not of words, who will put a check on these eVil re: formers and dam a movement which does not represent the genuine ‘demard of the hour. . It remained for George Bernhard .~o make the most startling stu ament. la his desire to condemn Chancellor von Rethmann-iHollweg for failing to declare openly and “plainly Germany’s war aim program, this writer, in the Vossiche Zeitung, who has been maintaining that the submarine campaign was steadily and rapidly bringing the war to a su:- cessful end, now says that the Germans must recognize that if this end is to be uttuined by miiltary means it will be only after long delay and that states. manship must be brought into play. Herr Bernhard's belief, ds intimated in this article and more clearly definei in preceding ones, i that it is possible to conclude a separate peace with Rus- sia by a skillful declaration of terms— an opinion of which he is now virtua'ly alone among German publicists. The radicals and Socialists evidently have come to the belief that only a general peace is possible, while writers in the other camps naturally favor a vigorous prosecution of the war and the taking frorn Russia of all that Imperialist Ger- many could desire. WEBSTER WOMAN'S SON WRITES OF BATTLE WITH SUBMARINE Gunner on Merchantman Says Tor- pedo Didn’t Explode, but Ship's Guns Hit U-Boat. Mrs. Joseph Niehaus, formerly of 3 Joy avenue, Webster Groves, has re- ceived a letter from her son, Sylvester J.

He is only doing his duty as are thousands of others—nothing exceptional in tpat, nthe seekers after news are apt to say. But I am tempted to report one case, anyway. Its emphasis may serve the purpose, at least, of throwing into relief those cases of slacking you pounce upon with such avidity. . Mrs. Frank McFarland of 5942 Gar- field ‘avenue, whom I frequently meet at suffrage gatherings, told me about it. “I was looking about for a new mar ket man,” she said, “because the one with whom I had dealt kept on neglect- ing to hang out the national colors. At random I called up Webb Brothers. Hamilton and North Market, and asked them if they had a flag flying over their shop. They answered ‘yes’ with so much enthusiasm that we proceeded to better acquainted. I found that the older of the brothers had tried to en- list and had been rejected because of defective teeth. ‘But I intend to get my teeth in. order and be ready for the second tall for men over 30,’ he told me. And I found that the younger brother, Adam Webb, had tried to enlist and had been rejected on account of some defect that required an operation; that he had gone to a hospital and had the opera- tion, at an expense to himself of $75, besides all the pain and the time he has lost from business. And now he will try-to re-enlist. Suggests Medical Attention. “I think the Government ought to. make some concessions in favor of a man who is so eager as this one to enlist,”” she concluded. “I should think we might at least furnish the medical attention in a case like this, Could you not call public attention to this remis- sion of Uncle Sam’s?’’ I promised to learn more about the Case and as we parted I asked, “How is the war affecting you, Mrs. McFar- land?” “A good deal,’’ she responded. If we weren't shouldering our part of the re- sponsibility I would not have the face to talk either in praise or criticism of others. My son Ray was graduated / as a.civil engineer at Washington Uni- versity last month. He is how work- ing in the State Highway Department of Illinois, has already enlisted with the engineers and is waiting to be called out. My son Kirk is out at Maxwelton with the First Regiment. And Charles, you have read how he has his appoint- ment, passed his examinations and 4s entering West Point.” Now I happened to have iciiire that it was on the senior Mc arland’s sal- ary as a railway mail clerk until he became superintendent of his divisiun that these three sons were reared and educated. “Are you disappointed at the way things have turned out for you?" I could not help asking. “Disappointed that we are at war, yes. But not disappointed in my boys. I am proud of them. My only instruc- tion to jthem now is to play the game fairly. ‘I hope my boys will be sports- men. I do not want to hear of re- venge or reprisals, however ruthless and atrocious are the acts of the enemy.” But I promised to inflict upon you only one case of. mere duty done, didn’t I? When I called at the home of the Webbs, 1444A Hamiiton avenue, [ found Adam had gone down at the re- cruiting office, his first trip out since his release after two weeks in the hospital, and his mother and sister, Margaret, waiting anxiously to learn his fate. Boy Was Enthusiastic. “At first we were just sick over the hoy wanting to enlist,” said Mrs. Webb. “But you never saw anybody so enthu- siastic as Adam was. He was the one who persuaded 14 of his chums, all members of the Falcon Club, who have a clubhouse out on the Meramec, to en-/} list. They all know something about motors and he urged them to try for the engineers. Our boys always have been lovers of the military anyway. I guess they have been brought up to it. Tama charter member and past president of TLL TN WU get. our other _bov—perhaps | au |’ ‘Well, I had to put up a talk to Capt. ADAM WEBB. the Women’s Relief Corps. Adam be- longs to the Sons of Veterans. I'll show you his uniform.” She brought out a suit of army blue that showed a good deal of wear and sat caressing it involuntarily as she talked. “Adam's grandfather and my father,’’ continued Mrs. Webb, ‘‘Adam Ofen- stein, for whom he is named, is the oldest G. A. R. veteran in St. Louis. He came here in 1849 with his uncle, Uhrig, the brewer. My father went into Maj. Rassieur’s regiment as a private when the Civil War broke out, and he came out a captain. He is 94 years old now and he and mother, who is 387, still live just a few blocks from here in the neighborhood where once was their large country home. You can see the roof of the original House coming out of the center of that block of store buildings. They used to call this sec- tion Ofenstein Park. My father always has been an American patriot. It was to escape the very system that we are fighting now that his uncle brought him from Germany. He hag 15 grandsons eligible for service, but he seems to be | tion he has gone down to re-enlist. And. especially interested in Adam’s want- ing to go and he has his sword set aside for his namesake. ‘My husband was an Englishman’ and though he did not pretend to any great. learning upon the subject, before he died, 12 years ago, he predicted this very war started by Germany. Well, as I say I was sick at the thought of Adam going. I am wholly dependent upon my boys for support and Adam is the life of the house. We will miss his music. But when he went for the physical ex- _ mination and came back and told me he had been rejected on account of an old injury caused by horseback riding, that we never tad thought worth paying a:- tention to, and I saw how disappointed he was, I out of sympathy, began to feel disappointed too. Why if he had been a girl about to graduate, with her clothes all made, who found that she had failed in some iittle unexpected way, ne couldn’t have been more pitiful in his disappointment. There was humil- jation mixed with it, too, for you see he had been the ringleader at inducing all those other boys to enlist. S0 we urged him to have the opera- tion, though it was expensive and dan- gerous, too. And now, armed with the doctor’s certificates and _recommenda- we are just as anxious as Can be to hear that he comes through aa! right.” Gets Promise From Captain. Preseritly the young man Came in.

I told ‘em @ was disappointed not to get in with my friends, but I guessed I could get into some other division. I have had seven years’ experience in the drug business. Maybe I could be of use in the medical corps. Or I guess I know enough about the meat and vegetable business to make myself useful around the commissary. The Captain wasn't got impatient, too. I said I wasn’t so crazy to get into their old army, any- way. None of this suicide stuff in my | makeup. I only wanted to do my duty as a citizen. If I went over to France it would be with the conviction that I was coming back to home and mother. I intended to fight my way through ani get back. The Captain finally said I showed the right spirit and that he was going to use extraordinary means to get me into the company where I wanted to be.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Recently you published an article about the Street Cleaners’ Union and that Mr. Talbert had just learned of the organiza- tion. Will say that the street cleaners formed their union on March 26, 1917, and ‘elected regular officers. With its member- ship of 300 it includes all the street clean- ers in the city. As to the fact of our not having made any demand for an increase in ‘wages, that has been promised for the last four years and only for the fact that af ‘union had been organized there would not ‘have been any talk about a raise in wages now. All city employes, except the street clean- ers, have had their pay increased from $15 to $40 a month, while the men who need it most have been waiting patiently to get a raise of 25 cents per day, or $6 per month. We had a committee wait upon the Board of Aldermen, and they have promised to try to help us. All of the city employes get paid by the month or year and get- full time, but the poor men who clean the streets get paid by the day and are allowed to work on an av- erage of 22 days per month. One dollar and seventy-five cents a day amounts to sper month.

Contempt of popular rights and the misehievous confusion of governmental affairs at a time wher every energy should be bent upon the prosecution of the war, are not the only alarming phases of this performance. More sinister than these is the palpable fact that by this legislation the House of Representatives yielded weakly and almost unanimously to a lobby maintained for the most part by organizations pretending to be religious. Today this lobby is undertaking to say what the American people shall and shall not drink. A few years or a decade hence it may be regulating their diet, their clothing, their reading, their -holi- days, their tobacco, their amusements, their very form of worship, and all to the glory of God, as it would say. ; Let no one suppose that the present contest at _Washington is actually between religion and est kind of. politics. It is religion that is used iA behalf of fanaticism and bossism. Involved in this conflict is something of more importance fer the moment and for all the years to come than any issue, no matter how sharp, between total ab- stinence and moderation, and that is the people’s rights. In war, as in peace, the people’s rights are para- mount. The people’s right to live their own or- derly lives unvexed bysmeddlers setting up pre- posterous claims to sanctity and wisdom has never before been challenged as it is today in the very citadel of democracy. A republic that is to make the world free from ‘democracy must not be straight-jacketed. It will not be straight-jacketed. If the time ever comes when morality in the }United States. must depend upon the work at paid, the Declaration and the Constitution will have been written in vain. i, he he — HELGOLAND AS A GERMAN BULWARK. Naval experts are speculating on the possibili- ties in a goncerted attack on Germany by the allied fleets with the object of landing troops back on the Hindenberg line’ An American Gen- eral is reported as saying that it would be worth the cost in ships and men. ‘“‘He was in favor of going after the German fleet, even if he had to go into Helgoland.” It would be folly to attack Helgoland unless by so doing the whole or a large part of the German fleet could be bottled up there and destroyed. Hel- goland, it ig true, has a harbor capable of holding the entire German fleet. But, as the little rocky island is fortified as heavily as is Gibraltar, there is no need of warships staying there for its de- fense. It is only useful as a basis, and the com- modious harbors on the mainland, 28 miles away, would naturally be the refuge for most of Ger- many’s warships if threatened with attack. There is plenty of sea-room for the allied war- ships between Helgoland and the German coast, if they decide to strike for that coast. They can pass without fearing anything from the island’s land batteries. —_—_— itt = = -~ FF LAYING THE FOUNDATION. _ Every now and then you will hear a street car strategist express the opinion that the United States is woefully slow about actually getting into the war. His monologue usyally runs about like this: “I read every day where the Goverriment plang to build so many ships and so many aeroplanes and send so many troops to Europe at once. It's plans, plans, plans. Is anything being accom- plished? Why, for example, isn’t the regular army in Europe? Are there any ships actually being built? Four months have gone by and what have we done?” Impatience is & general failing in America. Most of us like to see the acorn grow into an oak over- night. Nature, however, takes her time when there is lasting work to be performed, and sO Man, @ painstaking product of nature, must work slowly and carefully if his work is to endure. You have no doubt seen big downtown vffice buildings in the course of construction and impa- tiently watched the long-strung-out excavation and foundation work. Weeks and months go by and little seems to Rave been accomplished be- sides the digging of a large hole. You wonder if the building ever will be finished.

The incident in Chicago in which. but fof the interference of the police an infuriated mob of 500 would have lynched a driver who had caused the death of a 4-year-old child is also significant. The rising indignation against incautious and inconsiderate drivers causes injustice to be done to those who drive with care at moderate speeds. In the effort to reduce the number of prevent- able traffic accidents, pedestrians must not for- get that there are safety first precautions for their observance as well as for the drivers. = = = — PRICES OF CANNED GOODS. The Federal Trade Commission finds that canned vegetables which cost the wholesalers 7% and 9% cents are selling at retail for 17, 18 and 20 cents a can. The consumer pays more than twice as much for every can of vegetables as he would have had to pay for it if he could have bought it direct from the factory. It would be interesting to find out just how much of the added 8, 9\or 10 cents per can paid by the consumer goes to the wholesaler, the job- ber and the retailer. A certain proportion of it, of course, is represented by fre’znt rates. What thefrade Commission should tell the public, after full investigation, is whether the total amount now added to the cost of canned goods, in passing from the factory to the producer, is a reasonable charge for the work of distribution. We would like to know whether, if these and other food products were distributed by the Gov- ernment agencies, at cost, the consumer would he saved from a large part of the burden of what appear to be extortionate prices. = = i a PETER FRANK FORD &c, &c. , There were extenuating circumstances when Peter Frank von Fordaczewski Forak Kajewski, in applying for naturalization papers, Yailed to give his full name. While, unfortunately, Peter Frank Ford, the abridged version which he gave, did not comply with the law, it had much to com- mend it in the matter of brevity and believability. And while, also unfortunately, it was necessary to fine him $100 and deprive him of his papers, be- cause it is against public policy to permit indis- criminate bobbing of names, the name he had certainly needed to have something done to it and his efforts to fix it merit commendation. It should be remembered that Peter Frank von Fordaczewski Forak Kajewski did not pick his name, It was wished on him by his parents. It might have happened to any of us. It is to his credit that as soon as he realized how it sounded he changed it to Peter Frank Ford, or rather he retained that much of it and snipped off the rest. Where he made his mistake was in not having it done according to law. He reasoned that it was his name, all of it, and if he wanted to dispense with part of it, that was his affair. His reason- ing was wrong, which he has now earned at the price of $100 and the loss of his papers. But he is not going to take any chances on his name getting him into trouble in the future. He has asked the Circuit Court to officially remove all of it except Peter Frank Ford. Now, if, after the court has done that, he again has himself made over into a citizen of the United States, his metamorphosis will be complete from Peter Frank von Fordaczewski Forak Kajewski, German, to Peter Frank Ford, American. ans rues : LONDON TIMES’ GOOD ADVICE. The financial editor of the London Times warns his countrymen that they are not relieved of their own responsibility for the success of the war by the money, men and munitions coming from America. He sees a danger of “slackness’’. there from too great a reliance on America’s wealth, en- ergy and efficiency. What America does, he says, ‘is no substitute for the efforts called for from ourselves.” 3 Such an utterance is beneficial here as well as in England. Some have professed to see already faint traces of.an inclination on the part of the entente to “lay down on America,” so to speak. So far the war has been to her profit in not a few directions and an entente willingness that she should spend herself even more prodigally than the other allied nations have to date in the com- mon cause would, perhaps, not be unnatural. To act on such a theory, or even to suggest it, would sow the seeds of much ill feeling.

In crossing the drives in Forest Park, it is ad- visable to go under as many of the viaducts over the River Des Peres as possible. This service will sub- sequently be improved with stairs. ° 6. In estimating the speed of an approaching auto- mobile, always consider the time of day and the con- sequent probability that the driver has or has not had anything much to drink. 7.

If the cut is ne. made correctly the bilossom-pro- ducing properties of the plants may be seriously injured. This applies particu- and grown especially to supply cut flow- ers. Such roses will be largely of the perpetual blooming sorts. When a rose is cut from such a plant Only two or three eyes of the current be left on the plant, says Popular Sci- ence Monthiy. This should give the roses very long stems. Succeeding blos- soms should be cut to the ground. it will seem like destroying the bush to take go much off, but if the object is the production ef reses, the cutting away of the surplus wood will simply further the desired end. If the spring pruning hae not been suf- ficiently severe, the plant is likely to have long, naked stalks and short stems to the flowers, In such a case only one Or two strong leaf buds should be left on the branch when the flower is cut, so as to stimulate as much growth as pos- sible from the base of the plant. The temptation is great to leave wood where there are two or more buds-on one branch, some belhg small, when the terminal one is open. This bad practice can be avoided by pinching off all side shoots after a bud has formed on the énd of a branch, thus leaving the stem perfectly clean and willowy.

The man who first taught a kangaroo to box and introduced him to a surprised world, earned enough in a few years to become independently rich. Other pugtilistic kangaroos com- manded a weekly pay check that might have made an opera singer envious, but the original “fighting Kangaroo’’ cap- tured the big prizes. Since the beginning of time mankind has been amused by attributing human faculties to animals, and wherever one of the lower creatures has shown signs of intelligence, public curiosity has run high. We have long been familiar with the elephant which stands on a ball and does simtiar feats. But the first ele- phant to accomplish these things was a seven day's wonder. One of the most unique novelties ever offered t6 the public was the first batch of trained seals, brought out by Capt. Woodward? Their ability to play muai- cal instruments, throw a ball about, and so on, captured the fancy of the na- tion and made theie owner rich. An- other novelty of this kind brought wealth to Leoni Clarke, who taught a eat to go up in a balloon and descend by a@ parachute. It remained for a Frenchman to set a mark that has not been surpassed, and which promises to remain thé top hotch of achievement in this field. He was named Gaspard, and made his living by teaching languages In London. Gaspard bit upon the idea of training fleas to “act.” No one had ever thought of such od that was to earn him riches and a measure of fame. In the end he taught fleas to do a number of tricks. that might be called “acting.”” His achieve- ments stand as the most ingenious ac- has been recorded. ‘By carefully piercing the small end ,of an eggshell with a large needle, a funnel for filling very small bot- tles is provided.

P. Ravenel of the de- | partment of preventive medicine of the University of Missouri.) TUDIES of the last few years have pfoved that tuberculosis vf cattle can be ‘communicated to man. The danger is greater for chil- dren, and greatest for those under 5 years of age. The disease is communt- cated to childref almost. entirely through the drinking of milk. WBating the meat of tuberculous cattle does nut appear to be especially dangerous. iargely because meat is eaten cooked. Adults do not appedr to be prone to contract the cattle type of tuberculo- Sis; however, it must be recognized that there is danger. Apart from the public health aspect of the question, the economic side must be considered. Tuberculosis is common among cattie and tremendously wide. spread among hogs. The last report from the Bureau of Animal Industry shows that carcasses of 37,00 catile and 74,000 hogs were condemned entire- ly on this account, in addition to 58,- 000 parts of cattle and 520,000 parts of hogs, rendered unfit for food by the same disease. The disease is spread among healthy herds largely by the use of by-prod- ucts from the ‘creameriés and cheese Tuberculosis ‘Spreaiié Through Milk— Loss Is $25,000,000 Yearly factories. Skimmed milk which is taken from the creamery for the feed. ing of calves may contain the tubercle germ. The farmer who gets back’ his by-products does not receive his own milk but the mixed milk from a num- ber of farms. He is, therefore, at the mercy of his neighbors, and the neighbor who har- bors tuberculous. cattle. may. in this way spread it to the farms of carefiil farmers who take every . precaution. Hogs are practically always infected from cattle, largely through the use of the by-products from creameries. Few problems facing the farmers «f today equal in importance the question of animal tuberculosis. it is also re- flected in the high cost of meat. The money lost from this disease {1 the United States is estimated at $25,000,000 a year. Just how this is distribuied cannot be told.in a short article, but it is fair to assume that the meat eater pays a large part of it. The cost of meat is raised by the large number of condemnations hneécessary at tiv slaughtering establHshmentfs. It bde- hooves every one, then, to guard against tuberculosis of domestic ani- mals, both on account of the dan¢er to mankind and also on account of ita affect in raising the price of our meat pre limiting the supply. ee mae ———— —— GGS in BaSkets—This is a delicious F and attractive luncheon dish, But- one these tomatoes first, of course, but du not peel them.

2 Ot eg er Cure - _ @xile from Hobbeville. 4 expressing opinion of the culture of Hobbsville. Mr. When Geraldine Hobbs reached the F pretty and pertinent age of 20 she man- ifested a desire to turn her back upon Hobbeville, the hideous, and make a journey of discovery—perchance con- quest—into that mysterious and alluring province. known as “Back Bast.” Her father and mother thought > of the project Hobbsville experienced a peculiar psychological convulsion the day she left. Before the Sante Fe express had borne Geraldine away from the battered station Hobbsville had been an isolated, provincial little kingdom, sufficient unto itself and without thought 6ér care of the outside world. After the train de- ' parted Hobbsville was linked forever with New York. On the day following thé departure of Miss Hobbs the local news agent re- ceived an order from Mr. Hobbs for a daily New York newspaper; Mrs. Hobbs subscribed for a weekly home and fam- ily magazine; Harvey Shoemaker decid- ed to take an Eastern musical periodical; Miss Schenck asked to have a New York fashion paper «ent her regularly ard Miss Jackson bougnt a copy—two months old—of a New York “society - journal,” The news agent was puzzled— but thankful. The reincarnation of Hobbvesviile had begun. When Miss Geraldine Hobbs arrived in New York she was stunned by the great- ness of things and the fact that every- one was different from herself and her people. For a week she was dismayed, then the pride of youth came to her res- cue. She had come to conquer, and con- quer she would, The transformation was miraculous. In three months Geraldine looked, thought, walked, talked and acted like one who had never been west of Rahway, N. J. She was a New Yorker from her bobbing picture hat to her high French heels, and regarded upper Broadway as the center of social life in the town. |. Six months after her arrival she be- longed to a sextent in* a Broadway “musical show” and supped after the performance every evening in a garish restaurant, where an orchestra twanged out the “gems’’ from the piece in which she appeared. After that she never men- tioned Hobbeville. Meanwhile her former home hustled. Mr. and Mrs, Hobbs, Mr. Shoemaker, Miss Jackson and Miss Schenck became unknown to one apnother—and, indeed, to themselves—culture-crazed. The rest fol- lowed suit. A year passed, another, a third and a fourth, yet Miss Hobbs was still an She wrote that she expected to star in a new musica! comedy “next season,” and sent home various illustrated “Sunday supple- ments” containing pictures of herself. Hobbeville gloried in her “success” ard longed for her return, but Miss Hobbs wrote that “professional engagements’ compelled her to remain in New York. But at last she could make no more excuses. Her father wrote that unless she returned to Hobbsvilie to sing at the opening of the new Carnegie library, which he and Mr. Shoemaker had been instrumental in securing for the town, he would immediately stop sending her generous monthly allowance, She wrote a dutiful letter and assured her father that she would be delighted to go home. The opening of the library was to be & great event in Hobbsville and weeks before the occasion Miss Jackson ordered new furbelows from Miss Schenck, and Mr. Hobbs and Mr. Shoemaker selected cloth at the tailor's for evening clothes. The local paper announced that “Miss Hobbe—‘the most noted child of this country’—would be present and would On the great night the hall was packed with a well-dressed, well-mannered mu!- titude, A regent of the State univer- wity made an address eulogizing Mr. Carnegie and Mr, Hobbs, quoting from the classics and his high Hobbs then took the floor. In a crude, honest speech, he “pointed with pride” to everything in the town, the State and the nation; and it was then that Hobbs- ville came to an appreciation of itself. in a gown that had once made a “hit” in a Broadway production.
