GAY “KIEL WEEK" ON THE EVE OF WAR Ambassador Recalls Queer Slip of the Tongue of Prince Henry in Tell- ing English Fleet Officers, “We Are Sorry That You Are Going and SORRY That You Came’--- Von Tirpitz “An Amiable Old Sea Dog.” By JAMES W.

This is the twenty-seventh installment of “My Four Years in Germany,” in which the American diplomat recounts his experiences at the Court of Berlin. K naval center of Germany. IEL, situated on th> Baltic, on the .a Jutland, near the Baltic entrance of the Kiel Canal, is the principal RRR srn_ side of the Peninsula ot When thé Germans decided to build up a great fleet the Emperor used every means to encourage a love of yachting and of the sea, and endeavored to make the Kiel Week a rival of the week at Cowes, the English ‘yachting center. ied With this end in view, the rich Germans were encouraged and aleniat eommanded to buiN and race yachts, and Amegicans and others who visited Kiel in their yachts were entertained by the Emperor in an intimacy impos- sible ‘if they had merely come to Berlin as tourists, residing in a hotel. “We went to Kiel, in June, 1914, as guests of Allison Armour, of Chicagy, . I was detained by business in Berlin, and Mrs. I arrived there on Saturday, the 27th of June, on his yacht, the Utowana. Gerard preceded me to Kiel. and that night went with Armour to dine with the Emperor on board the Empeoror’s yacht Hohenzollern. A In the harbor were a fair number of German yachts, mostly sailing yéechts, taking part in the races, the fine old yacht of Lord Brassey, the Sunbeam, and the yacht of the Prince of Monaco, in which he conducts his scientific voyages.. A-great English fleet, comprising some of their most powerful dreadnoughts, had also arrived, sent as an earnest of the good will and kindly fecling then supposed to exist between Great Britain and Ger- many. and the Hamburg-American Line had an old transatlantic. steamer, The redoubtable Von Tirpitz was present on a German battleship, the Deutschland, rechristened the Victoria Luise, filled with guests, most of whom were invited on a hint from the Emperor. Emperor Hurried to Berlin After Archduke’s Assassination. At dinner on the Hohenzollern a number of English peuple were pres- ent. The Kaiser had on one side of him the wife of the British Admiral, Lady Maud Warrander, and on the other side the Countess of March, whose husband is heir to the Duke of Richmond. I sat between Princess Munster and the Countess of March, and after dinner the Emperor drew me over to the rail of the ship and talked to me for some time. I wish that diplomatic etiquette would permit me to reveal what he said, but even in wartime I do not think I ought to violate the confidence that hospitality seals. However important and intcresting, especially to the tame Socialists of Germany, I do not give this conversation with the Emperor nor the conversation with him and Col. House at the ‘‘Schrippen Fest,’’ because I was his guest. Conver- sations with the »mperor which I had on later occasions were at officic autliences, and to these the same rule does not apply. He also invited me to sail with him in his yacht, the Meteor, in the-races from Kiel to Eckern pin on the coming Tuesday. Sunday afternoon Prince Henry and his wife, who reside in the castle at Kiel, were to give an afternoon reception and garden party, but on arriv- ing at the gates we were told that the party would not take place. After goimg on board the Utowana, Frederick W. Wile, the celebated correspond- ent of the London Daily. Mail, ranged up alongside in a small Jaunch and informed us that the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir to the Austrian throne, and his wife had been ‘assassinated at Sarajevo. There was much rushing to and fro in fast launches, the Emperor himself being summoned from the race which was in progress. That night we dined on board the yacht of the Prince of Monaco. All:the diplomats and notables whom I met dtring that afternoon and evening seemed to think that there was no chanc» that the tragedy at Sarajevo would lead to. war. The next morning the Emperor left early for Berlin, but expressly directed that the festivities and races at Kiel should be carried out as arranged. Prince Henry’s Curious Slip of the Tongue. Monday afternoon there was the large hall of the yacht club at Kiel. a ‘‘Bierabend’’ (an afternoon beer feast) in The Emperor was to have presided at this dinner, but his place was taken by his brother, Prince Henry, who, it will be remembered, visited the United States not so many years ago. Sir Edward Goschen, the British Ambassador, who was living on one of the British battleships, sat on his right and I sat on his left. During the even- ing a curious incident happened. The Prince and I were talking of the dan- gers of after-dinner speaking and what a dangerous sport it was. ‘In the midst of our conversation some one whispered to the Prince and he rose to his feet, proposed the health of the visiting British Admiral and fleet and made a little speech. As he concluded, he said, addressing the officers of the British fleet, ‘‘We are sorry you are going and we are sorry you came.,’’ It is remarkable as as showing the discipline of the German nation and their respect for authority that thereafter no German ower referred to this curious slip of the tongue. The night was rather mild and after dinner we walked about the gardens of the yacht club. I had 2 long and interesting conversation with the Prince of Monaco. Prince, who receives such a large in- come from the company which car- ries on the gambling rooms at Monte Carlo, is a man of the world intensely interested in scientific research: there is practically no corner of the seven seas into which his yacht has not poked her nose in the search for material for the sea museum which he has established at Monaco. On Tuesday Armour and I boarded the Emperor's sailing yacht, the new Meteor. The race was a beautiful run from Kiel to Eckernfjord and was won by the Meteor. The Em- perfor was not on board, I did not get one of the souvenir scarfpins always given to guests who sail with him on a winning race. Among our crew was Grand Admiral von Koes- ter, subsequently an advocate of the submarine war. Henry's Wife Czarina’s Sister. _ That Eckernfjord is a little fishing and bathing town. Nearby is the country residence of Prince Henry, a rather modest house built in brick in En- glisth Elizabethan style. The wife of Prince Henry was a Princess of Hesse-Darmstadt, and is the sister of the Czarina of Russia. We had tea with Prince and Princess Henry, their: family, the Duke of Sonder- burg-Glucksburg and several others of his family. The billiard room of the house is decorated with the large original caricatures made by Mc- Cutcheon of the Prince's stay in America. Prince and Princess Henry came out to dine on the Utowana, and Ar- mour and the Prince went ashore to attend another “Bierabend,” but I dodged the smoke and beer and re- mained on board. Before he left the yacht, I had a talk with Prince Hen- ry. He seemed most exercised over the dislike of the Germans by 1! other peoples and asked me why I told him that I thought it existed be- German Intrigues 1 in Mexico Continue ram thought that it existed.

He has been devoted to aautomobiling and has greatly encouraged that in- dustry in Germany. The automobile Club of Berlin is his particular pet. Von Tirpitz an “Amiable Seca Dog.” On returning to Kiel next day we spent several days longer there. J lunched on board his battieship with Grand Admiral von Tirpjtz, sitting next to him at the tablef He struck, me then as an amiable sea dog, com- bining much political and woridly wisdom with his knowledge of the sea. From Kiel we motored one night to dine with a Count and Countess in their country house. This house had been built perhaps 200 years and was on one side of a square, the other three sides being formed by the great stone barns. in which the produce of the estate was stored. Al- though the first floor of the house vas elevated about eight feet above the ground, the family, on account of the dampness of that part of the world, lived in the second story, and the dining room was on this story. An ancestor of the Count had, ata time when this part of the country v.as part of Denmark and about the year 1700, lent all his available money to the then King of Denmark. A crude painting in the hall showed him sitting in the hall of this partic- ular house smoking a long pipe and surrounded by three or four sisters v ho were all spinning. Our hostess told us that this pic- ture represented ‘the lending ances- tor being supported by his sisters while waiting the return of the loan whieh he had made to the Danish King, an early example of the situ- ation disclosed by the popular song which runs, “Everybody works but father.”’ Of course, no one ever ex- pected a Prussian nobleman to do any work except in the line of war or governing the inferior classes of the country.

CHINA GETS LOAN IN JAPAN PEKIN, Sept. 3.—The Chinese Minister of Finance today signed an agreement with a Yokohoma specie bank for a loan of 10,000,000 yen ($5,000,000) on Chinese. treasury bills which will be issued in Japan at the rate of 93 with 1 per cent com- mission to the bank. The security will be the surplus from the salt monopoly revenue. ‘The agreement provides that the money is for “current administra- tive expenses.” The term of the loan is one year, with the privilege of an extension to.two years.

The reading of President Wilson's state papers as a means of iastilling zreater patriotism in St. Louis school children will be part of the curricu- lum of the public schools, which will open tomorrow with an attendance which is expected to exceed $1,000 The enrollment last year was 80,24S. Superintenrent of Public Instruc- tion Withers, in an address today tc all principals and teachers in session at Soldan High School, emphasized the need of patriotic instruction in the grade classes. Material Patriotism, ‘Singing national hymns and rev- erence for the flag,’’ said Supt. With- ers, “are merely the etiquette of pa- triotism. Real patriotism is deeper and consists in doing something ma- terial for the country. Pupils in the schools should be so instructed as to upreciate fully the benefits of democ- racy.”’ Supt. Withers said that an excel- lent method of patriotic instruction would be to have the children either read all of President Wilson’s state papers or have them read to them. He told of one young student who had his room decorated with the executive’s papers. The Superintendent also pointed out to the teachers the need of get- ting the schools in closer touch with the masses. He predicted that Amer- ica would lead the world in the ex- cellence of its public instruction at the end of the war. The Board of Education: believes that the enrdllment in the schools this ye rawill be a record-hreaker despite the unusual economic condi- tion. For the past six years, with one ex- ception, school enrollment has shown a large increase on opening day over that of the previous year. The one exception was last year, when the enrollment was less than that of the preceding year, due to the extreme- ly hot weather. This caused many schools to close at noon preventing the counting of pupils who were to come inthe afternoon. That the loss was temporary is shown by the fact that the total enrollment for the year was the largest in the history of the schools. All Wanted on Opening Day. Parents are asked to send their children to school on-opening day in order that the organization of the schools may be perfected: with as little delay as possible. A special census of all pupils en- rolled tomorrow will be taken by the various schools. The result of this census Will be known in the even- ing. | . Although the new Junior High School, Von Versen avenue and Win- demere Way, will be open tomor- 1 Col. row, pupils will not report there. In- stead they have been requested to report at the school where - they would ordinarily go. This new school is not only counted on to relieve con- gested conditions in certain West End schools, but is regarded as an important step: forward in provid- ing improved school! training for the youth of this city. ROOSEVELT TELLS TROOPS TO “LICK HELL OUT OF ’EM” Former President Is One of 30,000 Who Visit Camp of New York Militiamen. CAMP MILLS, L. I., Sept. 3.— Thirty thousand persons, including Theodore Roosevelt and party visited the camp on Hempstead Plain Sunday, where national guardsmen are waiting for departure for France. After Col. Hine, the commander, had introduced Mrs. Hine to the Roosevelt party, Col. Roosevelt said: “You have a fine bunch of lads here, Col. Hine, and I want to shake hands with some of them. Will you allow me to?” “Go aS far as you like,”’ response. A throng of khaki-clad men and of visitors had‘ ‘gathered: in front of headquarters. Col. Roosevelt, ad- vancing to the front of the com- mander’s tent, said: “This is sol- dier’s day and I want to greet only the regiment. Come on, you bunch im uniform!” For the next 10 minutes officers and enlisted men got the “Roosevelt grasp.”’ “How I envy you fellows!” he snapped. “I wish I were going to France with you!” Then down a company street went the Colonel, all the khaki-clad men coming to attention and saluting. He stopped in front of a tent and threw the flaps aside, with: “Hello, boys! God bless you all! Good luck and lick hell out of ’em!” Backing out, Col. Roosevelt. said to the saluting soldiers: “I have sons in France, but I am no more proud of them than I am of evéry one of you. boys.” PASTOR ACCEPTS EDITORSHIP The Rev. B. A.

SHRAPNEL EXPLODES NEAR Still to Be Taught ‘to Follow “Rolling Barrage” and Use of Bayonet. ' By THOMAS MARVIN JOHNSON. A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. (Copyright, 1917, by Press Pub. AMERICAN CAMP IN FRANCE, Sept. 3.—For four hours Saturday American troops crouched in their trenches while overhead screamed high explosive shells and shrapnel, bursting at times within less than a hundred yards: It was their first experience with new inventions so largely used by the European armies and for many of them it was the first time they had ever seen shell fire. Nine, batteries of French artiNery, posted to the rear, fired thousands of shells overhead to accustom our boys to the roar of the guns and the sound of. the explosions when the shells struck the trenches. A gently slop- ing valley with wooded sides was chosen as the scene of the most am- bitious test the Americans have yet had. On one side was the “Ameri- can” on the other the “German” trenches. The whole American side was a mass of olive drab and green- ish gray for the full force of the ex- pedition was massed in the trenches and in clumps of wood near by. The men were standing about at their ease, talking and laughing, curious to see the latest “show.” Suddenly the blast of a whistle was heard and every man disappeared suddenly. AH that remained in sight was the tops of their brown steel helmets like rows of beehives in the trenches. Another whistle sounded and word was passed to the French gunners, who were invisible over the ridge, to begin firing. Then came a boom and the screech of the first shell the Americans had heard in France. Try to See Shells in Flight. Involuntarily the bee hives were re- placed by rows of upturned faces as the men tried to see the flight of the shell. That of course was impossi- ble, but they saw the smoke and flame followed by the* tremendous crash of the explosion as the shell landed squarely on the “German” first line on the opposite slope of the valley which had been named the “Hindenburg trench.” Several hundred shots were fired with all kinds of shells to show the men the method of using time fuses and other details. Then an officer in the American front line, the “Grant trench,” fired signal lights reading, ‘The Germans are attack- ing. Give us a barrage.” For a mo- ment there was confusion in the trenches, all the boys crowding up to the front, eager to get as close as possible to the exploding shells. In less than:.a. minute the barrage came, a straight line of shells explod- ing with incredible rapidity only a hundred yards in front of the Amer- icans, making an impassable barrier for the “Germans” and _ throwing eurth and pebbles which sometimes rattled on the steel helmets of the Americans. Gen. Sibert and his staff, all helmeted, started to go down the line when the barrage suddenly lift- ed anda cheer broke from the trenches for the accuracy of the French gunners. | After.this came the artillery prep- arations for an offensive against the “Germans” and the “Hindenburg” and ‘“‘Mackensen” trenches across the valley became mere sigzag lines of smoke while the “German” reserve trenches in a ravine nearby were blotted out. It was the rolling bar- rage behind which the French and British troops advanced at Verdun and Arras against the helpless Ger- mans. There followed a deafening roar of all the guns together, part firing high explosive shells,-others shrap- nel, the little gunners in blue work- ing their 75’s 12 shots to the min- ute, and in the midst of all this clam- or what did the Americans do? Many of them watched spellbound, but some went to sleep. They had been up since 4 o’clock in the morning. It was almost noon and no artillery could keep them awake. Later, one of the officers, talking of the day’s experiences, asked, “What can the Germans make of an army like that?” : Gen. Sibert is planning further ar- tillery work, now that the men are becoming familiar with it, and it is probable that this week they will be taught to follow the rolling barrage, leaving their trenches and advanc- ing behind the wall of exploding shells. Only one man was hurt yester- day. He was hit by a fragment of stone and only slightly injured. British to Teach Men, ‘Too. British officers and perhaps Brit- ish troops are expected to arrive next week to take part in the instruction of the Ameri s here. The number is unknown, but specialists in the di- verse forms of modern warfare are included and it is likely that they will stay with the Americans some time. This is part of the plan to ob- tain for the Americans the best and most complete training, such as no army has had yet, before tney go into the trenches, and the Amn. eticans will be able to build up a Gghting force which will include all tne best features of both the British ond the French soldiers. The British will teach our boys es- pecially the use of the bayonet, in ST LOL oT ear ic the finger. Rl aE BY | FOX DIED OF RABIES, JURY'S. VERDICT Animal Which Attacked M Meadows Was: Captured in Country, Father Testifies. A Coroner’s inquest today into the death of Mary Meadows, 12 years old, of 6287 Bartmer avejue, St. Louis County, at the city hospital Saturday, after having been biiter six weeks ago by a pet fox, resulted in a verdict of death from rfbies. The girl's sister, Florence, 17 years old, died of the same diseasa at the city hospital Aug. 7, and two broth- ers, James, 18, and Harvey, i5, are now under treatment at fhe city hos- pital for rabies. August Meadows, a mechanic, fa- ther of the children, was the only witness at the inquest. He said the fox was captured in St. Charles County last April by his son, James, and put in a cage at their home in the hope of taming it. Children Play With Fox. There were nine children in the family and they found considerable amusement in playing with the fox. During the hot weather in July the eldest daughter, Florence, was p!ay- ing with the fox when it bit her wen She thought nothing of it. The same day the father said the fox snapped at Mary, James and Harvey. The father did not think the animal bit them, but might have scratched them. The fox died the next day. Shortly after being bitten «lorence became seriously ill and died within a few days. At the time she was bit- ten she was helping care for her mother, to whom a baby had just been born. Mary became ill last Monday. Within a few days her condition was serious and she was sent to the city hospital. After her death rhe par- ents became alarmed about the two sons and had them sent to the city hospital. Boys Show Rabies Symptoms. Physicians there said today that both boys show slight symptoms of rabies, bu. are not in a serious con- dition. The symptoms are more de- veloped in Harvey, and they think this may be due to the fact that he was the constant playmate of Mary before her death. After the inquest Coroner. Vitt rointed out that parents should ex- ercise great caution in the choice of pets for their children and shouid not permit young wild animals to be kept about the premises unless caged or muzzled. If a‘child should receive even a slight scratch from the teeth or claws. of such an animal, he said, a physician should be seen at once. which they are more experienced than the French. They place great- er reliance on cold steel in big at- tacks, using grenades only for trench cleaning, while the:+French, in at- tacking, use the grenade more than the bayonet. The British. bayonet drill is recognized as best suited for our boys, who, it is believed, will de- velop into formidable bayonet fight- ers under this drill. After the French and British have each demonstrated their methods and explained them, the Americans will adopt the best features of both and evolve an American method. The French, whose training has been so valuable for our boys, still remain their “bunkies” and will stay to give them the finishing touches. After the British experts are throuzsh, the American officers will form schools to teach our noncommissioned offi- cers the newly evolved methods. hited a oe og % = z ; ean . la Cs s : ee os 7 ay ES Hee oe 5 2g eH % ie > a3 x .

FIGHTING ALONG LINE UDINE, Italy, Sept. 3.—Notwith- standing bad weather conditions, fighting still continues all along the Italian-Austrian line and consists for the most part in isolated hand-to- . hand encounters between small de- - tachments of Italians and Austrian soldiers, the latter imprisoned by + % Italian artillery fire in galieries, the mouths of which have been closed by shell fire.

DENOUNCES PACIFISTS Executive Arraigns Those Who Ignore America’s. Grievance Against Germany. WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.—Hearty approval of the conference of the American Alliance for Labor and Dcec- mocracy, to be held in Minneapolis next Tuesday, and the task it will un- dertake of suppressing disloyalty has been given by President Wi'son ina Tetter to Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor and chairman of the alliance. The latter made public here de- mounces those who seek tv ignore America’s grievance against Ger- manyy and insist that a nation whose citizens have been foully murdered under their own flag, whose neigh- bors have been invited to join in making conquest of its territory and Whose patience in pressing the claims of justice and humanity has been met with the most shameful policy of truculence and treachery, does not know its own:mind and has no com- prehensible reason for defending it- self. * “While our soldiers and saltors are doing their manful work to hold back reaction in its most brutal and Aggressive form,” the President wrote, “we must oppose at home the organized and individual efforts of those dangerous elements who hide disloyalty behind a screen of specious and evasive phrases.” The President's Letter. The letter follows: “My Dear Mr. Gompers: occasion. fellow patriots uphold is one with the cause Wwe are defending with arms. While our soldiers and sailors are do- ing their manful work to’hold back Teaction in its most brutal and axg- gressive form, we must oppose at home the organized and individua] «fforts of those danger elements who hide disloyalty behind a screen of Bpecious and evasive phrases. + “I have read with real pride the mames of the men and women who are to take part in the Minneapolis conference. Not one but hasa record ,of devoted service to fundamental democracy; not one but has fought the long, hard fight for equal justice, - braving every bitterness measure of happiness. “With all my heart I want to fee] .that their devotion to country is in ‘no wise a betrayal of principles, and ,that in serving America ‘today they are serving their cause no :ess faith- fully than in the past. I myself have had sympathy with the fears of the workers of the United States: for the tendency of war is toward reaction and too often military necéssities have been made an excuse for the destruction of laboriously erected in- . dustrial and social standards. These ".fears, happily, have proved to be ‘ baseless. Honors the Toiler. “With quickened sympathies and appreciation with a new sense of the invasive and insidious dangers of oppression, our people have not only held every inch of ground that has been won by years of struggle, but have added to the days of the twen- “Ueth century a long line of human betterments. Question of wages and »hours of labor and industrial read- justment have found a Ss lution which gives to the toiler a new dig- nity and a new sense of social eco- nomic security. I beg vou to fee] that my support has not been lacking and that the Government has not failed at any point in granting every just request advanced by you and your . assistants in the name of the Amer- ican worker. , “No one who is‘not blind can fail to. see a battle line of democracy for American stretches today from the _ fleld of Flanders to every house and “workshop where toiling upward striv- ing men and women are counting the treasures of right and justice and liberty which are being ‘hreatened by our present enemies. “It has not been a matter of sur- Prise to me that the leaders in cer- tain groups have sought to ignore ,our grievances against the men who ‘have equally misled the German peo- ple. Their insistence that a nation ‘whose rights have been greatly vio- lated, whose citizens have been foul- ly murdered under their own flag, whose neighbors have been invited to join in making conquest of their territory, whose patience in pressing the claims of justice and humanity ‘has been met with the most shameful _ policy of truculence and treachery, their insistence that a nation so out- raged does not know its own mind, ‘that it has no comprehensible reason for defending itself, or for joining with all its might in maintaining a free future for itself and its ideals, 4s of a piece with their deafness to the oft-repeated statement of our na- _ purposes. - “Democracy Shall Rule.” : “It is perhaps that these forces yo? antagonism have not yet learned ‘> know the voice of that Ametica “we love and serve.

OWNER OF NEW AUTO HAS TWO ACCIDENTS IN ONE DAY Frank B. Paxhia, 809 North Tenth street, ran into two accidents with his new automobile vesterday after- noon. He was taking his two daughters for a ride, and at Fourteenth and Locust streets steered the machine against the curbing to avoid a colli- sion with Miss Mattie Howell of Rog- | ers, Ark., who was crossing the street. The car bounded from the curb and knocked Miss Howell down. She was bruised, but not seriously hurt.

CALLS MILL TAX WHICH HE UPHELD A BURDEN Judge Grimm Says His Business Was to Pass on Validity, Not Wisdom of Ordinance. It was learned today that Cir- cuit Judge Hugo Grimm, who handed down the decision in the mill tax case, the cost of which to the united Railways Co. has run into the millions, and who also decided the universal transfer suit against the company, was one of the speakers at a gathering of officials of the com- pany and city officials, held Friday evening at Delmar Garden, follow- 'the close of the four days’ picnic of ithe company’s employes at Creve ' == Couer Lake. | Judge Grimm alluded to the fact | that he had handed down these de- _cisions, and said he could speak without being considered partial to the United Railways. He declared his personal opinion that the mill tax was “a very heavy burden’’ on the company, and said it had not been his business to pass officially on the wisdom of the tax | ordinance, but only on its validity, ‘and that he had found it valid and ‘had pronounced accordingly. The company, he said, though fearfully handicapped by lack of funds,’’ was doing pretty well in the matter of service, considering the limitations of a surface system of transportation. He said the company was entitled to credit for having promptly sub- mitted to his decision in the univers- al transfer case, and having put the universal system at once into use. He said the critic had his proper place, and that criticism was always possible in relation to the affairs of a large public service corporation, but he repeated his assertion that the United Railways Co. was doing pretty well. Among those at the Delmar Gar- den gathering, who were on their way home from the picnic grounds in President McCullough’s privato car, were Mayor Kiel and Public Welfare Director Schmoll.

Nonsensical, Says Vienna Paper of President’s.Note | American Executive Has No Inkling of ‘Char- acter of German People, Nieve Frie Press Declares--Fremdenblatt Also Hostik. AMSTERDAM, Sept. 3.—The Vien- na Nieuve Frie Press, commenting on President Wilson’s note, says: “Even an unprejudiced perusal must lead to the conclusion that President Wilson’s reply is the most partisan presentation imaginable, that it lacks all justice, is filled with malignity and prejudice against Germany, and shows that President Wilson has no inkling of Germany’s political insti- tutions or the character of the Ger- man people. “President Wilson appears. to know nothing either of the isolation policy or that France is at least as militarist as Germany. He has not read that in the Soukhomlinoff trial the clearest proof has been given that the war was unchained by the military caste of Russia, even against the Czar’s will. He does not know and does not want to know that by disregard of the London and Paris declarations Great Britain is respon- sible for the entire misfortune at sea.”’ The newspaper terms the note “nonsensical,” adding: “For even if it were assumed that Germany had striven after world domination no one will understand why the slaugh- ter must continue, @espite the frus- tration of the alleged pian of domi- nation.” It says in the concluding words of the note lie the only ray of hope, and declares: “‘Even the American peo- ple could not offer a better guaran- tee of treaties than the agreement between the German Parliament and the Government exhibited by the Reichstag resolution and the Chan- cellor’s acceptance thereof.” . The Vienna Fremdenblatt clares: “The contents of President Wil- son’s reply are as unparalleled as the tone of the note. In a most hu- miliating and offensive manner terms are dictated to the German people, the fulfiliment of which would con- stitute the most humiliating inter- vention in the most primitive rights of the German nation. If Germany lay prostrate, her army destroyed and fleet hors de combat, no more degrading terms could be proposed de- by the President of the Untted States. “The fact has been made clear COUNTRY CLUB GRAPE JUICE ‘ The equal of any Coffee sold, regard- expert judges who know and appreciate rare delicacy of richness less of price. flavor and aromatic recognize in this brand an blend of high-grade coffees.........

The Kreuz Zeitung says: “Social democracy’s attitude tends to dam- age or weaken the German defense, o. otherwise how could it go hand in hand with President Wilson, one f the most bitter enemies we have.” This néwspaper terms the accusa- tions brought against the German Government as madness which it says can onty be laughed at; but it adds that the British propaganda has so prepared the ground in the United States that “such absurdities do not meet with general mocking hter.”’ “Even in the part meant for the }German people,” the newspaper-con- times, “President Wilson has struck the right tone, knowing very pre- | cisely-what a pleasing effect the tac- tics of David Lloyd George, the -British Premier, of playing off the German democracy against the Ger- man Government have hat” On the other hand, the Koelnisch: Zeitung’s Berlin correspondent says if the ramarks of the Vorwaerts had mot been printed the people would refuse to believe ttrat “such a blind ideologist existed.” The correspondent proceeds to draw a picture of the peace-loving monarchies of Central Europe as contrasted with the clique-ridien, bellicose and oppressive democracies. In the course of a second article on President Wilson's reply, the Koelnische Zeitung’s endeavors to prove inconsistency by comparison with the peace note of December, 19126. But it goes to consikKerable trouble to emphasize the zeal of the Germans in carryin out reforms that it says are an assured success. Inci- dentalty, this newspaper declares grandiloquently that problems are now offered as the latest novelty from Paris, London and New York, which were weighed in all their phases by the Germans over a cen- tury ago, when the Germans were stl a people of poets and thinkers.

French of 4327 Washington boulevard, were married in New York Saturday by the Rev. Percy Gordon, an uncle of Lieut. French. The marriage took place in New York, because Lieut. French, who won a commission at Fort Riley, is there awaiting a transport to France, where he will become attached te the regular army. He was formerly a department manager of the Gra- ham Paper Co. Lieut. and Mrs. French departed Saturday night for a brief visit to Annisquam, Mass., but will return to New York today. Mrs. French made her debut sev- eral years ago.

While faulty projection at both, performances yesterday spoiled the first public presentations in St. Louis of the much-heralded film spectacle, “Jack and the Beanstalk,” at the Shubert-Garrick Theater, enough was seen to show that it is a well-told picture story, with an excellent cast, in which all but two of the princt- pals are children. Two of them, Francis Carpenter and Virginta Lee Corbin, are wonderfully talented child actors. The projecting machine, unlike Jack, did not have a fairy godmoth- er to direct fts movements. In fact, it acted so badly that there was ground for suspicion that the wicked giant had tampered with the machin- ery. At times the pictures were sv dark that the figures on the screen scarcely could be distinguished. Again there would be an excess of light which made the eyes ache. At critical points the pictures were “jumpy,” out of register and out of focus. To make matters worse, the climax of the entire production liter- ally went up in smoke. At the mo- eanstalk and the giant came tum- bling to the ground, the film burned through and all that was seen on the screen was an oozy trail of melt- ed emulsion where the falling giant should have been. The management promises that the production will be satisfactory for the remainder of the two weeks’ engagement. children—too much of a thriller, per- | haps, for very young spectators eas! take it serfously. There are several nerve-racking scenes. Great stress is laid on the cannibalistic tenden- cies of the giant. Captured children are seen fattening in the cellar of his castle. Once there is a torturirg view of a tiny form turning on the spit in his fireplace, and the specta- cle of the giant holding the little Princess on a chopping block and bending over her with a cleaver, 1s not pretty.

He was charged with selling liquor on Sun- day. The home of Charles Schmitt, 818 Allen avenue, which was raided a week ago, was visited again yester- day by the police. Schmitt’s broth- er, Gus Schmitt of 3710 Minnesota avenue, who was entertaining three visitors, was arrested, suspected of selling liquor without a license.

SUPPORT GOVERNMENT, CHM CLARK URGE {No Nation Can Long Endure That Does Not Protect All Its Citizens, He Says. MONMOUTH COURTHOUSE, N. . J. Sept. 3.—Unqualified support of “the Government in the war was urged as the duty of every United citizen, native and natural- Labor day address here today on “ the famous revolutionary war battle- . Zield. “No nation can long endure, or de- ’. perves to endure, that does not pro- * tect all of its citizens wherever they “ gnay be, on land or sea,” he said. Praising President Wilson’s recent * yeply to the Pope’s peace proposal the Speaker said it “will be read " gorever and forever.” “Such men as fought at Monmouth ‘he hot- according to Sir the American Revolution,” he said, “ “eonstitute the armies we are now “ yaising for the most stupendous of all wars. We have not degenerated ” into a race of mollycoddles as certain pessimists claim, a fact which will be clearly demonstrated in the imme- diate future. A finer body of young 'mé@n never went forth to battle than our soldiers now ‘swiftly forming in the ranks of war.’ “In this supreme crisis of our af- fairs—not of ours alone, but of the whole world’s affairs—it is the duty of every American, male or female, native or naturalized, to support, aid and sustain the Government in every manner possible—mentally, morally, physically, financially. That is the plain imperative duty we owe to our ancestors, to ourselves and above all to our posterity. From time im- memorial orators, philosophers, statesmen and poets have exalted pa- triotism as the sublimest virtue. Cen- turies ago Horace sang: ‘Dalce et decorum pro patria mori’—It is sweet and glorious to die for one’s country.” However that may be, it is sweet and glorious to live and work for one’s country—and we can all do that much. ‘We cannot in good conscience do less. I beg to suggest that patriotism does not consist entirely in public speeches, braying bands, flag-be- decked parades and vociferous asser- vations of love of country, but gen- uine patriotism consists in being a thorough-going American citizen, discharging all the various duties of citizenship every day of the 365, thereby showing forth the blessings and glories of our free and benefi- cent institutions to all the. world That’s the real way for any of us to prove our patriotism, for it is writ- ten ‘By their fruits ye shall know thern.’ , “A few days since President Wil- son published by far the strongest, the clearest, the most far-resounding of his state papers, stating in extent his views on peace proposals. “He is of right the mouthpiece, the spokesman of this mighty people, apd his statement has beémrread by all men, and will be read forever and forever. I now herein state our case tm the fewest words possible.

AMSTERDAM, Sept. 3.—Lieuten- ant-Captain Hans Rose, submarine commander, who, after a 17-day voy- age, appeared on the German sub- marine U-53 at Newport in October, 1916, subsequently returning across the Atlantic, is at present busy sink- ing merchantmen, according to ad- vices from Berlin. The German semilofficilal news agency appends to this announce- ment a note saying that the United States naval authorities considered the U-53 double trip so improbable that expefts declared in Congress in February, 1917, that the submarine was unmistakably accompanied by a provisioning ship which had re- mained undiscovered. “This incredulity of the Ameri- cans,’ adds the agency, “is the more comprehensible, seeing that it had to be admitted by the American nava\ authorities on the same occasion that the best performance of an American submarine at that date covered only 10 days.” Tuesday Gland 72 FEATURING Our SPECIALIZED SUITS “SDs But instead of $21.50 they would be priced $25, if bought m the regular way. are specializing in Suits at this price, and unless a Suit does not show a $25 to $35 value, it is not admitted to this spe- cialized group.

HOW TWO GERMAN FLYERS WERE SHUT DOWN BY IRISHMAN Noted British Aviator Puffs on Pipe as He Tells of Vic- torious Encounters. DIVED FROM THE CLOUDS In Each Case Briton Had to Sur- prise Enemy to Prevent His Flight. By JOSEPH W. GRIGG, A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and N. Y. World. (Copyright, 1917, by Press Pub. Co.) WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE FIELD, Sept. 2.—From one of Britain’s most brilliant airmen I ob- tained today the thrilling details of two air flights which occurred.in the last few days. He is a young Irish- man of medium height, with a ready smile and a long list of victories to his credit. He comfortably smoked his pipe as he told of the two en- counters, both witnessed by thou sands of soldiers. In both instances he got his enemy as the latter made a last desperate attempt to get away when within 1000 feet of earth. “A Hun plane was reported com- ing over the lines and I immediately went up,” he said. “The Germans never come over our lines to fight and when they come for observation they go very high and return at full speed as soon as we go after them. This fellow was evidently ordered to attack a certain one of our observa- tion balloons and he came down quite low. While he was doing this I ascended some distance away. He didn’t notice me until I had got be- tween him and his lines, and at a very advantageous height. Then he suddenly wheeled and started for his lines. I made a long, steep dive for him and came so close I could see him looking over his shoulder at me Shot Away Tail of Plane “He maneuvered to bring his gun into action, but I dived under the tail of his machine. In his efforts to hit me he completely shot away the tail of his plane, and then his ma- chine made a headlong dive to earth, where hundreds of soldiers were cheering me on. I could plainly hear them as could the Hun pilot. I hadn’t hit him in any vital spot and his fall did no fatal injury. I went around to see him in the hospital next day.” The second fight, which happened within a few hours after the first, was with,a two-seated plans. The noted airman describing this fight said: - “I was well up in the clouds when I saw a boche machine over our lines but near enough to his own, as he must have thought, to make a get- away if necessary. I sailed high and kept well behind the clouds until I got a position where I could again dive and cut off his retreat and make him come down in our lines. He saw me as I began to dive for him and instantly turned for his lines and dived to make a quicker descent, but I closed on him. He couldn’t get over his lines. Again there was a great crowd of soldiers below watching the chase. I got so close I could see him look at me. Uninjured by Fall. “I didn’t want to hit him if I could make him land without doing so. I gave him every chance to land vol- untarily. But I must say he tried to get away even after he had gone down to about 1000 and knew it was all up with him. Then I had to let him have a burst from my gun. His pilot was killed and his machine fell into our lines. I saw the soldiers cluster around it and was told after- ward that when the German observ- er, who was uninjured, had disen- tangled himself and saw them, he hid under hfs machine, which had turned over. He finally came out and was made a prisoner.” Many of the recent air fights have been forced wpon the Germans by the British at points eight or more miles inside the German lines. The Germans have painted some of their battle planes scarlet, in the belief that the sight of one of them dash- ing toward the British would have a nerve-wracking effect. Other ma- chines have insignias similar to the marks of British planes. MISSOURI TROOPS ARE PICKED FOR RIOT SERVICE iN CHICAGC Four Companies Held in Readiness to Aid Artillery Unit in Case of Disturbance. FORT SHERIDAN, IIL, Sept. 3— Four companies of Missouri men, mostly St. Louis students at the offi- cers’ training camp here, arose today facing the probability of being called into riot duty service in Chicago. They had been honored by being selected as the resérve force to aid troops expected to be called to sup- press expected riots in Chicago fol- lowing the refusal of Mayor Thomp- son to stop a meeting of pacifists. The Missouri men were ordered last night to be in readiness for ac- tion at a moment’s notica They were to be the support of the Second Dilinois Artillery, the only regiment left in Chicago. The Artil- lery were armed only with pistols and the Central Army Department had doubts as to their effectiveness as guards. The Missouri regiment -has been equipped with rifles. Most of them are men with previous mili- tary experience. “Second Story” Man Gets 70 Cents.

Parker of Washington, names five women as corespondents in a suit for divorce she has filed against Ernest Manning Reeve, late of Texas and formerly a Captain in the United States Army, but now dismissed from the service. The corespondents are called Clara, Emma, Estella, Virginia and Gene, according to the divorce peti- tion, and, according to Mrs. Reeve, there are still others. According to Mrs. Reeve, Clara lives in San An- tonio, Tex.; Emma was last seen in Kansas City, Mo.; Estelle is_ from San Antonio; Virginia hails from a Texas city and Gene was in Gal- veston at last reports. According to Mrs. Reeve’s attor- neys the dashing former army Cap- tain broke hearts all over Texas when stationed in that State with the Twenty-ninth Infantry. Reeve was dismissed from the regular army last January. First Services in New Church. The first service in the new bufld- Maryville and Maple avenues, was held yesterday. The Rev. Dr, Fran- cis W.

Suggests Stenographers’ Union. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In answer to the stenographer writing in the Post-Dispatch of Aug. 31, would like to state that I have had six years’ exper- fence as stenographer. I find jobs plentiful enough, but agree with him in the matter of salary. When a firm engages a steno- grapher, it wants a man with an excep- tionally good education. He must be capa- ble of taking dictation at the highest speed and transcribe his notes accurately. If a mistake is found in a letter after the dam- age is done, the stenographer must assume responsibility; the dictator is infalliMe. Should he be required to continue taking dictation an hour or more each day after the closing hour, he is supposed to do so without complaint and without extra pay; if he does not like this system, he is a “clock watcher” and will never be favora- bly mentioned for advancement. Machin- ists, printers and other tradesmen who “quit when the whistle blows’ are never looked upon with the same contempt as are stenographers and other office men. The reason is plain—they are organized and demand their rights. A good stenographer is a valuable asset ta any business; and no one Knows this bet- . ter than the man who employs him. But it is up to the stenographer to dictate his demands to the employer. This he can do enly by organization. JO. E. MUELLER, Where He Can Drill. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. For the information of James O’Toole, whose letter appeared in vour paper, sug- gesting the establishment of a night class in preliminary drills, etc. for young men beyond the draft age, permit me to state that the Army and Navy Union, U. S. A, a national organization of honorably dis- charged soldiers and sailors, has established an Auxiliary Reserve Corps for that pur- pose to which every reputable citizen, re- gardless of age, is eligible, if he is willing to obligate himself to defend our flag against any and all enemies at home or abroad, to the utmost of his ability, when called upon to do so by the President of the United States of America. The St. Louis branch of the Auxiliarye Reserve drills every Saturday at 8 p. m. at the gymnasium of the Central High School, 1030 North Grand avenue, and should appeal to James O'Toole and others who may nob have the time to become members of the home guard. H. W. STEINBISS, Commander. Another Commuter Complains. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Not content with taking off 15 suburban trains between St. Louis and Kirkwood, the Missouri Pacific has now taken off the 7:35 morning train, thus forcing their pa- trons to take a much earlier train, or wait until 8:10 a. m., one hour later. The 7:35 train came into St. Louis at $:10, in time for the people to get to the retail stores by 8:30 a. m., the usual open- ing hour. This works a great inconven- fence on a great many, as it either forces them to get to St. Louis one-half hour too soon, or to get a later train to the city, one hour too late. This should be remedied in some way, and we hope the Missouri Pacific will put the 7:35 train on their schedule again. M. C. W. No Incentive Is Needed. From the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram. We have not taken any stock in the charge that the Industrial Workers of the World is in the pay of the German Govern- ment and is part of its spy system in America. But our reason for not doing so has been that we know that the organiza- tion needs no such impetus to induce it to embark upon treasonable activity, nor does it require any instruction in frightfulness from the Hohenzollerns. A body of men adher'ng to the tenets which have been herein enumerated can be deterred from doing everything possible to embarrass the Government in its conduct of the war by one means only, and that is by the strong arm of the law. Frugal to the Last. From the Saturday Evening Post. Not long ago a certain publication had an idea. Its editor made up a list of thirty men and women distinguished in art, re- ligion, literature, commerce, politics and ether lines, and to each he sent a letter or @ telegram containing this question: - you had but forty-eight hours more to live, | chow would you spend them?” his purpose = “Being to embody the replies tn a sympo- ‘ehum in a subsequent issue of his periodical. “Among those who received copies of the (f Guiry was a New York writer. He thought the proposition over for a spell and then sent back this truthful answer by wire, collect: ~~*One at a time LABOR DAY OF PATRIOTISM. We may doubt whether the thought and aspira- tion which are uppermost in the minds of the re- flective part of the public today will be given anywhere a finer expression than that given by President Wilson. His letter is addressed to a patriotic conference of workingmen at Minneapolis which will not be- gin until Wednesday, but was printed in time to make a distinctive and valuable contribution of its own to the other useful suggestions of labor’s great holiday. : It is reassuring and helpful to discover that cer- tain widely entertained and well founded misgiv- ings as to a common effect of war in making the .rich richer and the poor poorer, the strong more powerful and the weak less powerful—in short, an effect that tends to neutralize the progressive gains won by great effort during years of peace— are shared by the head of the nation. It is, in fact, these misgivings rather than any sympathy with German aims which explain the opposition to the war in some quarters. But what reason exists for pessimism or even liscouragement when the whole force and influ ence of the Government will assist public opinion in resisting and preventing these possibilities? Mr. Wilson shows that, so far is any advance of the past from being lost, new ground has been and is being occupied under war conditions. He shows that the destruction of sinister systems of privilege and oppression abroad will bring nearer the day when the common man all over the world will come into his own. These are words of weight and meaning in his message to labor: I myself have had sympathy with the fears of the workers of the United States; for the tendency of war is toward reaction and too often military necessities have been made an ercuse for the destruction of laboriously erected industrial and social standards. * * * These fears, happily, have proven baseless. With quickened sympathies and appreciation, with a new sense of the in- vasive and insidious dangers of oppression, our people have not only held every inch of ground that has been won by years of strug- gle, but have added to the days of the twen- tieth century a long line of human better- ment. Questions of wages and hours of labor and industrial readjustment have found a solu- tion which gives to the toiler a new dignity and a new sense of social and economic se- curity. * * * No one who is not blind cam fail to see a battle line of democracy for America stretches today from the field of Flanders to the very house and workshop where, toiling upward, striving men and wom- en are counting the treasures of right and justice and liberty which are being threat- ened by our present enemies. The Labor day hosts in St. Louis appropriately marched to the music of national hymns. The year since the first Monday of last September has been marked by the opening of a war devoted to the extension of essential democratic ideals abroad ' and by significant evidences of the greater preva- lence of those ideals at home as are presented in the epochal court decision in which the world- wide eight-hour movement reached its highest point, in the increase of the workingmen’s com- pensation states to 40, in the operation of other important new measures contributing to social justice and in an almost universal recognition of labor’s claims to enlarged privileges and rights. = = = — SS TAXPAYERS THEIR OWN ASSESSORS. Serious differences have arisen between At- torney-General McAllister and the members of the new State Tax Commission over the legal re- quirements as to the assessments of property. Applying certain rather complicated standards laid down in Supreme Court decisions governing legal assessments, Mr. McAllister says: The Assessor ac:s judicially in fixing the value of property and he fixes the valuation when he receives a list from the taxpayer, with the value stated therein, without pro- test or objection, and his jurisdiction to fix the valuation is exhausted. So far as the Assessor is concerned his action is final and he has no authority or power whatever to change or modify it The effect of the opinion is virtually to make every man his own assessor, provided he has taken the trouble to send to the assessing officer his personal estimate of the value of his prop- erty. To receive even tentatively such valuation deprives the Assessor of all power to change it subsequently. A change in valuation without no- tice to the taxpayer is illegal and as “the statute makes no provision for the Assessor giving the taxpayer notice, any attempted notice by the Assessor would be worthless.”’ This curious situation, of course, greatly handi- caps the State Tax Board in its efforts for assess- ment at actual cash value through co-operation with local Assessors. However, the court deci- sions on which Mr. McAllister relies were based on the statutes as they existed before the passage of the act creating the Tax Board. The only authoritative method of determining the extent to which the old statutes have been modified by the new act is to ask an interpretation from the judiciary. —_——_ = ——_— — CUTTING DOWN CASUALTIES. Despite the fact that the British armies did their hardest fighting of the war last month with the offensive about Lens and Ypres, the casualties were much less than they were in July. Accord- ing to the official figures the number of men killed, wounded and missing in August was 58,811, while in the preceding month, which was one of comparative inactivity, it was 71,832. In May the casualties amounted to 112,233. The decrease in British losses may be due to the weakening morale of the German armies and the unwillingness of the soldiers to stand up and fight, but what is more probable is that the English high command has reached a high state of efficiency in the handling of its forces. The lessons learned at Neuve Chapelle and other places where thousands of men were sent to slaughter in vain because no preparations were made for reserves and the forward movement of artillery, have not been lost. Any fool can hurl 100,000 men against a section of line, lose 90,000 of them and capture a few yards of trenches, but it takes a real strategist to do the same thing with a handful of casualties. Haig and his officers seem to have reached 7 the point where a great gain can be made with Small losses. Gen. Pershing no doubt is in close touch with the English and French strategists and America will profit -by the lessons bitter experience has taught them. When the time comes for our troops to advance we may rest assured that the men will not be sent into a hell of fire, unsupported by reserves and artillery. Such casualties as oc- cur will not be due to blunders. We are fortu- nate to be able to profit by the mistakes that have cost Great Britain and France thousands of young men, withont compensating gains. = = * tT -. LET THE KAISER SUPPRESS. A good deal of nonsense is being talked and printed here and there advocating the complete Suppression of German-language newspapers in this country. One Western Congressman has even introduced a bill which would deny access to the mails to all of them which do not print English translations of their articles. The whole thing is foolish and unnecessary. So far as the German language itself is con- cerned, we Americans have no quarrel with it. It is a great and noble tongue, which expresses some of the world’s finest literature, profoundest phil- osophy and sublimest poetry. Americans without a drop of German blood in their veins will con- tinue to study it and respect it long after the present war is over. It is true that the German-language press has tried our patience to the breaking point. As a whole it has been far more pro-German in tone than pro-American. But even so, it has not gone much farther, if any, than a section of our reptile press, printed in the English language, If it has beguiled a few credulous readers into hatred and distrust of our war motives it has failed to con- vince the great miass of them, for most German- Americans have refused its leadership and have remained loyal to the country of their adoption. It is not the language of anti-Americanism which should be pynished, but the expression of treason and disloyalty, regardless of the lan- guage. Indications are not wanting that the governing authorities are already far advanced in preparations to smash published treason, but they are after the things which are said and not the forms in which they are uttered. The German-language newspaper in this coun- try is doomed without the necessity of legislative enactments. It was hanging on the ropes when the war gave it a respite. The circulation lists of its principal exemplars had been ‘shrinking for a long time. The younger generation of German- Americans preferred American newspapers and only the elders remained unshaken in their loy- alty to the language of their native country. Even if the United States had not entered the war the respite would have been only temporary. events, when the young men come back and we have returned to the ways of peace, the disso- lution of the German-language press is bound to be more rapid than ever. We can safely leave press suppression to Kais- erism abroad. Americanism will accomplish its perfect work. = = CHILD LABOR DISGRACE ENDED. Felicitations on living in a country in which, since 12 o’clock last Friday night, the disgrace of child labor profiteering had been wiped out, are not to be postponed because of the injunction suspending the act’s operation in the Western North Carolina District Court, issued by Judge Boyd at Greensboro. On the contrary, felicitations should be the warmer and more sincere because plausible but sophistical appeals for a complete setting side of the law, at least during the war emergency, have been resisted by Congress. James Edmund Boyd, the Judge who issued the writ, is now 72 years of age. His preparation for the bar was completed prior to 1868. We have had repeated reminders that views of the law rep- resenting the sound, learned judgment of a for- mer generation on questions relating to what we call social justice, do not represent the law judg- ment of the present generation as made known authoritatively and finally by the Federal Snu- preme Court. Able a Judge as Mr. Boyd undoubtedly is, he seemed to set great store by an admission that the act exemplifies an attempt to use the interstate commerce powers of Congress to regulate labor conditions within the state. But Congress used its taxing powers to regulate and prohibit banks of issue within the states, and it has repeatedly used these and other powers in such a way that an im- portant effect must be to regulate affairs within the states. The decision will give great satisfaction to those in a few Southern states who transform childish opportunity into cotton mill dividends and whose sentiments are doubtless reflected in Judge Boyd's district. But it will give small! sat- isfaction elsewhere. AS WHY ARGENTINA WON. Germany’s recent conciliatory attitude towards Argentina in the submarine controversy doesn’t mean anything else so much as that that the Kaiser’s Government has been compelled to listen to the murmuring of Big Business at home. An article in a recent number of the Weser Zeitung, published at Bremen, is illuminating. After complaining about the systematic effort of American money princes and “their hireling, Wilson,” to “throttle with golden fetters Brazil and Argentina,” the Zeitung laments that the war was the signal for the Yankees to “hurl them- selves like vultures and attempt to swallow Ger- many’s share of trade with South America amounting to $337,000,000 a year.” And it con- tinues: Future developments will depend primarily on the length of the war. The longer Ger- many is cut off from the South American market, the harder she will find it to recover her share of trade. It is comparatively easy in the case of imports, but as to exports to South America it must be remembered that the demand for finished products exists and has not to be created; consequently, the longer the South Americans are compelled to take non-German, and especially American, prod- ucts, the more accustomed they will become to them and the more anxious to avoid another change. Apparently the interests which the Zeitung re- presents are not so convinced as the rest of the country that the submarine is the sovereign pan- acea for all the troubles of war. ‘ > ———- - * a But after our own participation in these great |.

The night previous to bottling the bung should be taken out of the cask and the filled bottles should rot be corked down until the day after filling: best corks should be used.

Written for the Post-Dispatch. OE Oe ee Ee Oa ae ee ee OO ae OO a ee ee ANE NEWTON started for the J top of Flat-Top Mountain alone. Not one of the other guests of the ranch were willing to try it and as Jane had only two more days’ stay before leaving for the East she was not to be moved in her determination to climb ths mountain which was a part of the great continental divide. The buck- bogrd tock her as far as the rangers cabin and, bidding ithe driver good- Dreesed in khaki knickers and shirt, her leather puttees boun.:l tightly around her legs and a wool sweater tied around her waist, Jane looked like a real mountaineer. a fellow guest at parting had stuck a red feather in the band of her green velour hat, saying: “You surely look like an Alpine climber now.” But Jane's mind was not on the fact whether or not she looked the part, she was feeling the wonder ani beauty of the mountain trail. A turn of the trail showed a lake set like a gem in the top of a mountain, close by came the music of a rushing stream and all around was a riot of beautiful color—Indian paint brush, purple aster and mariposa lily. Close to timber line the wind swept trees pointed in but one direction, the pines with huge trunks were sadly dwarfed at top and the cairns with their black painted tops pointed the trail across the rocks and boulders of the well-named Fiat-Top. The upward pull had been a har] one and a little above timber line Jane found a plot not very grassy but somewhat softer to rest upo: than the sharp edges of the wind- blown rocks. Flat on her back Jane gazed into the blue sky above, s9 much bluer, so much closer than she had ever dreamed possible. But even closer than the sky, Jano spied a clump of forget-me-nots, so emall as to be hardly seen. “Oh, you beautiful little flowers,’ ghe cried, picking them tenderly. Drawing from her bosom a leather case, she opened it and took out a kodak picture. It was a picture of 2 young man standing in front of an American ambulance. Across the bottom was written “At Verdun.” Jane looked long at the picture; then with a sigh she put it back in the case together with the forget-me- nots. “Such thoughts won’t reach the divide,” she said, and once again on the trail she started for her goal —the top of the world. Steeper and steeper grew the way, the wind with a terrific force almost blew her off her feet, but not once did she stop to rest. After a two- hour climb past many snowdrifts, up loomed a sign—‘‘Continental Divide —(jrand Lake—12 miles.” Off in the distance lay the lake, from this height a small pool, but in reality a very large body of wa- ter. Jane, gazing off into space, was most startled to hear a halloa com- ing up from the other side of the di- vide. She could discern what looked to be three men, but as they came closer she saw that one was a wom- an dressed so much like her compan- ions as to be taken for a man. “All the way from Grand Lake?” asked Jane. “And more than that,” answered one of the men, “we are Canadians and have tramped all the way from our side.” The entire party seated them- selves. They seemed to be much in need of rest. Both of the men were middle-aged; but the woman was of Jane’s own age. They asked about her climb and its difficulties, com- paring them with some of the ob- stacles of their long march across the border. : “Oh, but it is good,”’ said the girl, ‘this is surely God's country. here above civilization and—war.”’ "She has been nursing in France for over a year, so you can know what this peace means to her,” said the one man who seemed to be her in France?” @sked Jane, her face lit up in sudden estion. “At Verdun.” Jane gasped. Fumbling at her shirt she pulled out the leather case. “Tell me,” she said, taking out the kedak picture, “is it possible that you know him?” .~ The young Canadian girl took the picture from Jane’s trembling hand. “Yes,” she answered slowly, “he was at our base.”’ “Was?” Jane's. lips moved but made no sound but the other knew the unspoken question. “Just before I came over I was with him——You are Jane, the girl ke was to marry.” . Jane nodded her head. For a long time-no one spoke, the message from over the seas seemed to sound from every peak, each gust of wind car- ried the word to the ears of the heart-broken girl. “Are you going back down the trail,” softly asked the Canadian c:rl, “or are you crossing the divide?’’ Jane stood up, her slim, boyish figure silhoutted against the sky, “I have already crossed the divide. I am going back down the trail.” “Tire Substitutes in Germany. UBBER is so scarce in Germany that little or none can be spared for tires for motor vehicles.

I only spoke to her once since I’ve been here. She spoke to me first and I answ>-e1.” “I know how it will be,” inter- rupted John. “Pretty soon she'll be running downstairs to bcrrow some eggs and then you’ll run up- stairs and tell me what rotten furni- ture they have and how her husband, who’s an architect, said’’ “He isn’t an architect,” broke in Mary. “He's got a fine position in a wholesale dry goods store and Mrs. Palmer said that maybe she cuuld get me some things who.esale.” “There you are,’ snorted John. “You see, you already know all about him. Did you tell her how much I made last year and that I have a note due next month and” “Oh, you just want to quarrel. You know that I don’t tell everything I know. I suppose you want me to stay in the house and talk to myssif or play bridge in the kitchen with Tillie. Why are you so unreason- able?” “Oh, well,” said John wearily, ‘eo as far as you like. Tell me something about the Johnsons on the first floor.” “IT don’t care to know them. She was divorced.” “You don’t say,” exclaimed John with sarcasm. ‘“‘How did you find that out?’’ ‘‘Mrs. Palmer told me.” “Anything else? How about Stacy on the third floor? Did she tell you the scandal about him?” “No,” said Mary cagerly, “what is hog “T don’t know,” replied John. “I dont’ believe there is any. But I thought Mrs. Palmer would know. She seems to be a mine of informa- tion. How about the” “Ask her yourself,” retorted Mary angrily, “I think they are going to call this afternoon.” “They're not going to call on me,” shouted John, ‘because I won’t be here. I’m going over to play pitch with Gregory.” “No, you aren’t. You’re going to stay right here. I’m entitled to your company one day a week. Why don’t you get a divorce if you don’t like to stay at home with me. I knew I made a mistake. Mother warned me and’”’ “Come on, now, Mary,” said John with an arm about her shoulder. “You're getting your eyes red. I[ want the Palmers to see you at your best. No, I’m not going out. I was only fooling. You are getting so serious, lady mine.” Mrs. Palmer was one of the gushy kind, the kind whose only regret in life is that the tongue will not move as fast as the mind. Her husband was unusually silent—he had to be. “It’s so nice to have good neigh- bors,” flowed Mrs. Palmer. “The Al- lens, the people who lived here be- fore you, were impossible. She was always gossiping about the other people in the apartment and he was a brute. They were always quarrel- ing and borrowing things from ev- erybody. He was an awful drunk- ard, wasn’t he, Phil?” “I don’t know, my dear. saw him drunk.” “He always disagrees with me,” rejoined Mrs. Palmer pleasantly. ‘‘Is Mr. Hunter like that?’’ Mary smiled, but said nothing. “Oh, you haven’t been married very long, have you?” continued Mrs. Palmer. ‘“They’re always nice when they're new. Preity soon you'll find him talking to other women and you'll stay up nights waiting for him and” “I don’t think Mr. Hunter will be like that,’’ demurred Mary. “I know Mr. Palmer isn’t.”’ “Well, there’s a lot of funny things going on in this apartment,” said Mrs. Palmer. “‘I’ll tell you about them some day. I hate to gossip, but one should know something about the people who live in the same house, don't you think? Well, we must be going. Good-by. Come and see us, real soon.” “If you ever go to see that wom- an,” said John as the door. shut, “you'll have to do it over my dead body.” “She does talk doesn't she.” “The less you have to do with her, the better pleased I'll be,” said Hun- ter. : IT never awful an lot, OWEVER, three days later, Mrs. Hunter was persuaded to go to the Palmers’ apart- ment to make a fourth at “auction.” There she met Mrs, Stacy and Mrs. Johnson. “I couldn’t back out @f it,” M Hunter explained to her husband _ dinner. “They just had to have a fourth and I wanted to play auction £0 bad” “Well, that’s the only way you can play it.”’ ADVENTURES 4 HONE BY «SAM .HELLMAN | The Neighbors. “They said I played fine. I won 30 cents. My, that Mrs. Stacy is the painted thing. She looks like @nm ac- tress. I guess you were right about them.” “I,” said Hunter in sprprise, “what do I know about the Stacys?” “Why, you told me there was some scandal about them, didn’t you?” “Good heavens, woman,” shouted John, springing from the table, “haven't you any sense of humor at all? I never saw the Stacys in my life and never heard of them before we moved out here. I suppose you told the crowd that I knew some- thing about them.” “I don’t gossip, John,” flared Mrs. Hunter, “and you know it. But that Stacy woman is certainly the limit. Mrs. Johnson, who was divorced from a brute that beat her, is a nice woman, though. Isn't it funny it’s these sweet, gentle women who al- ways marry these brutes? Why, he”’ “Never mind,” sighed John. “I’m not interested. Lets go to the mov- ing picture show and see some si- lent drama. It will bea relief.” “I had to give Tillie a piece of my mind today,” said Hrs. Hunter, “she’s getting altogether too familiar with the girl at the Johnsons. She’s over in their kitchen all day. Tillie told me that the Johnsons eat in the kitchen half the time.” “What do I care?’ snarled Hunter. “They can eat in the basement, if they want to.” “You needn’t fly off. That’s what I lectured Tillie about. I told her not to go over there any more.” “I suppose she'll quit now,” said John, “and we'll go hunting our nine- ty-seventh servant girl. We've been married a year and we’ve used up about all the servant girls in St. Louis.” “Well, it isn’t my fault, is it? I had to talk to Tillie, didn’t 1?” “Oh, yes, I guess so.” “The Palmer’s girl quit the other day and I saw Mrs. Palmer talking to Tillie when she was hanging up the wash. I wonder if that woman is trying to steal our girl.” “That will be fine,” grated John. “Then Mrs. Palmer will find out what you have been eating for break- fast and how many bills we get every month and the kind of powder you use and” “That's the kind of woman she is,”’ agreed Mary. “I bet she’ll like to hire our girl to find out about us. I hate that woman.” “Well, she’s quit,” said Mrs. Hunt- cr a few nights later. “Mrs. Palmer offered her $20 a week without the washing. She was going to give me a week’s notice, but I told her to get out right away. She’s upstairs now.” “Well,” remarked John philo- sophically, “‘there’s one neighbor we won't have to talk to now.” “You know only yesterday Mrs. Palmer promised to get me somo middys and stockings wholesale fron: her husband. I won’t take them now.” “T’ll be darned,’’ shouted John, “T though you told me you hated the woman. “That’s got nothing to do with my buying a bargain. I suppose you wouldn’t sell a bill of goods to a man if you didn’t like the way he parted his hair.” “Listen here,” said John with finality, “if you told Palmer to get that stuff for you, you pay for it, understand. What do you want to do, give that woman another chance to talk about you? Tillie will supply her with enough material, don’t wor- ry ; There was silence for a few min- utes. “By the way,” said John, “I want to ask you something. I passed Stacy on the steps this morning. I bowed to him and he passed by as if he was sore about something. You haven’t been talking about them to anyone, have you?” “No.” “Think, Mary. Isn't it possibl,s that you dropped some unguarded remark? There’s no other reason that I know of why she should cut me.”’ “I can’t understand it,” said Mary. “Let me see. The only thing I ever mentioned about the Stacys was one day when Mrs. Palmer was down here. She said something about a scandal and asked me if I had heard anything about it. I said that I didn’t know anything about them. but” There was a glitter in John’s eves. “But what?” he rasped. “Put that handerkchief away. No crying now. But what” “But that you had hinted at some- thing like that.”’ John sank speechless into his chair. Mary dabbed at her eyes. “It’s my fault, I guess,” said John, calmly, “for thinking that you had a sense of humor. I’m going down- town tomorrow to see if they will let me break the lease. Then we are going to move out in a cotttage in Kirkwood, at least on block from the nearest house. Then I think I will get a smallpox sign and keep it on the front door all the time.

Evening dreas is not abolished, but it is becoming much less customary in theaters and restaurants, and peo- ple coming up to London who used to bring evening clothes with them no longer do so.

To win their gold wings all the little fairies have to do something their *Queen deems worthy of the wearing of golden wings, and until then the little faries can carry 2 wand and do magic things, but no wings can they have until they earn them. Night after night the Que:2n waited for Nim-nim to win her wings, and each night she gave tae Queen the same reply: “I cannot find anything to do, my Queen. Al- though I look everywhere there seems to be nothing left for me. I am afraid ~ will never wear gold wings lige my sisters.” “But surely there must be good deeds to be done in the world,” said the Queen. “TI am sure you could find plenty to do if you tried Nim-nim.” “Oh! but my Queen, I assure you I look everywhere and no place can I find anything worth doing,” said Nim-nim. | “I will go with you tomorrow night,” said the Queen. “I think I know where the trouble lies with you, Nim-nim.” The next night, when the fatries went out on their mission of good deeds, the Queen went with Nim- nim following close behind. Aways, over the woods and meadows, they went, and at 'ast Nim-nim turned to the Queen and Said: “You see, my Queen, I was right; there is nothing left for me to do that is worth while. I shall never win my wings.” “Come with me,” said the Queen, leading the way, and this time they turned from the green meadows and trees and hills and went into the city, into the little streets where sor- row and suffering were to be found Se ee ce ee Then the Queen told Nim-nim to look about, but still Nim-nim kept on; she did rot stop to do any kind ceeds. “There is nothing here for me to do,” said Nim-nim at last. “My golden wings cannot be won; there is no work for me to do.” “Here in this poor little house lives a little crippled boy,” said the Queen; “could you not find deeds of kindness to do here?” “Take away his crutches and touch with your wand his crooked legs and strainghten them. “And here lives old Martha, the apple woman, who has rheumatism in her old bones. Could you not touch your wand to her back and make the pam go away? “And here is the little flower girl, whose flowers wither before she can sell them. Could you not touch the faded blossoms with your magic wand and cause them to send out their perfume and put life into their petals ?”’ Nim-nim listened to her Queen and then she said: “But my Queen, surely golden wings cannot be won by working in such poor and humble places as these. I must do big deeds and save a king’s daughter or save the palace of a king, I am sure, be- fore such beautiful golden wings as my sisters wear can be won.” ‘Do not think these will be deeds of low degree,” said the Queen; “the brightest wines are won by the hum- blest deeds, as you call them. Nim- nim, you have looked only in the palace for your work; golden wings are not easily won, as you say, but if you are wiling to do the work you find here, you will soon have a pair of wings that will outshine all oth- ers. Let me see if you are worthy to wear them.” Off went the Queen, leaving Nim- nim alone with the work she did not care to do. “What glory can there be in help- ‘ing these poor. creatures?” sho thought. “But I must have my wings, so I will try to do what the Queen ‘wishes.”’ “It took more than one night for Nim-nim to do all the work she found in the street of sorrow and suffering, but soon she became 60 happy in doing good and seeing the happiness she could give that she quite forgot the golden wings for which she hed been working. One night the Queen called Nim- nim. “You have won the golden wings,” she told her, touching her with her wand, and the little dell wher they stood grew bright as with the sunlight. “Oh, what is it shines so bright- ly?” asked Nim-nim. “Your goiden wings, my dear,” said the Queen with asmile; “your kind deeds have polished them until they are like the sun in brightness.” Nim-nim thanked the Queen and flew away to her work with the thought that she would never let her wings grow dim by neglecting the deeds of kindness that she could do, no matter shere she found them.

Here lies one whos life thrads cut asunder, she was struck dead by a clap of thunder.” According to the traditions of the Hale family, it was not altogether misleading to state that “a clap of thunder” was responsible for the passing of Mercy Hale. The story is that the vibration of a tremendous volley of thunder dislodged a brick from a chimney and that in falling it struck and killed Mercy Hale cious’ Your Evening Gown for Early Fall Wear Youthful Charm Is Combined With Dignity in This Gown, Rendering It Suitable for Maid or Matron.

DEALLY exemplary of an in- H between season frock for even- ing wear is this one, which neither offends the mode by indif- ference nor follows it subserviently. The moyenage style is suggested in effect, though not in cut; the draped effect is recognized, but only half- heartedly, and the straight silhouette takes advantage of the right side of the skirt. This frock proves its suitability to the season by being a bit more dig- nified than the airy summer frocks, yet not so rich and elegant as the winter ones. Soft silk or a soft lustrous satin known as “silvery satin” are the most accommodating fabrics for this de- sign, and, with velvet ribbon, lace and roses, an ensemble of unusual charm is achieved. The lower half ot the bodies is of the satin, draped softly about the figure, with a tiny pleating of the same finishing the top edge. Silver run lace banding serves an effective purpose above it, being formed into arm bands, which take the place of sleeves. Shoulder straps of velvet ribbon complete the bodice, This front view model shows the satin dress fabric, which would be beautiful in turquoise blue, used as « sash drapery low over the hips. At the left side it is held under two large pink roses with green leaves, from which drop two long thin streamers of blue velvet ribbon.

The back view of my design shows how adaptable is brocade or figured silk. In pale green it would be de- lightful combined with lavender faille ribbon for the sash drapery which could be held with pink flow- ers and rich green leaves. Green chif- fon to complete the upper bodice with shoulder straps of opalescent beads, which hold all the various colors of the rainbow, would com- plete an exceedingly attractive and individual frock. It incorporates the essential qualities of dignity and con- servatism for the matron, but in such a. delightfully naive way as to make it not inappropriate for the maid. The Russian Blouse. HE Russian blouse is in the %- cendancy. It towers over all separate waists. Therefore the women who like it and are a bit weary of the usual knitted or crocheted sweat- er are turning the latter into a gar- ment that resembles the former. These sweater blouses are worn over separate skirts, and one begins to see them, built of ornate materials and of high prices, worn at the res- taurants for lunch, and even in the morning in the shops, which are stil! crowded, despite the weather and the season. The sleeveless jerkin of velour or velveteen, with its pear-shaped arm- holes and medieval belting, is a for- midable rival to the knitted garment, with its wide sash. Concerning Paneling. If you have a paneled living or din- ing room, never hang your pictures across the dividing line between pan- els. Always place them in the exact centers of the panels—if you must have pictures there atall In reality, good paneling is decoration enough in itself, and pictures are very apt to detract from its beauty. Needless to say, the shape of the pictures, used with paneling, should always conform to the shape of the panels —CDristian Science Monito#r. Booker T.

RYING the hair with a rough D bath towel leaves line on it, which prevents a bright gloss, and therefore a smooth hand towel should be used. Begin by drying the scalp at the roots of the hair and also wring out the ends in a clean warm towel. Never dry. the hair in the sun unless you are trying~ to bleach it, and because strong rays of the sun cause the hair to streak and turr it many different colors, Tar and sulphur soap should be used by the brunette with oily sealp, and pure castile soap by-the blondes or any persons with dry hair and scalp. It is most important to shave the soap and melt it in warm water over a slow fire, and the whole cake should never be used, because: it makes the hair sticky and is almost impossible to remove from long hair. Avoid the use of borax, soda, ammo- nia and other drying ingredients, for, while they do remove some of the grease from the hair, they even- tually cause it to become dry, lIffe- less and to split at the ends. A thorough washing with a pure soap shampoo mixture will remove ‘all traces of grease, and it is not neces- sary to resort to green soap and other irritants to clean the hair and scalp. White hair should be washed in shaved castile soap melted in water, and then after removing the soap a few drops of indigo may be added to the last rinsing water. Do not use blueing. White or gray hair needs the castile soap because this color denotes dryness of the scalp. The above treatment leaves gray or white hair a beautiful silver col- or, instead of the usual streaky, yel- low shade so unbecoming to most persons. a ee ee ee i An entire floor for our new Millinery Depart- ment will soon be ready. ke 509 Washington Ao. \ Our new daylight Cloak and Suit Section | will soon await you. _f Four of the Many Models to select from Another Extraordinary Purchase of 250 SERGE | MI DRESSE Distinctive Autumn Models New Style Features Include Kilted Skirts and Tailored Coat E ffect.

Fred Fulton, By John 3 The lure of the championshir chance is what lends especial inter- est to this struggle. It will, no doubt, be the means of injecting the last ounce of effort into the battle be- tween these two giants who represent the largest conibined displacement of any two thoroughly trained scrappers in the world, Willard excepted. This is the first REAL match, of more than 10 rounds between ring mastodons, since Willard won his title from the decrepit Jack Johnson. Nor will the fact that Morris won on a foul, in. two previous encounters between these men at all detract from the merits of the show. Morris Was Too Rough. ULTON is now in his fourth year in the ring. He was very raw when first Morris encountered hin. In their second meeting last winter he fouled Morris after suffering what Fulton explained was continual rule- breaking by his opponent—-butting and otherwise hitting illegally, he specified as the particular offenses. Referee Bill Brown, one of the fair- est officials in the East, saw no foul in Morris’ fighting, or least took note of none. Following this encounter-the vai! of the Fulton men was abroad in the land and the official who allowed Morris to rough-house. it with the Rochbester giant came in for some grand panning. Bill’s temper must have been lined with asbestos, not to have become overheated by it. But he calmly matintained that Morris was rough, but within the law. What clouds the situation is that in a subsequent fight, against Tom McMahon, the Pittsburg light-heavy- weight, a home-town referee gave McMahon the decision over Morris. alleging the latter’s foul tactics in butting and hitting while holding as a reason. This would seem to bear out the anxiety of the Fultonians, were it not for the fact that experts at the ringside said the official’s decision was absurd. = . +. “Morris Fought Fairly’’—Hinkle. MONG the onlookers at the Mce- Mhhon fight was Matt Hinkle, promoter of the Cedar Point match and its probable official. Needless to say he ‘‘saw nothing foul about Morris’ work;"’ on the contrary, he thought the referee’s stuff was as raw as Carl Morris’ feelings. He said so—a fact that may put him beyond the pale as referee of the bout. It ought to, at least. What makes for confusion in the matter is that Morris, of recent times, has ceascd trying to bccome a boxer and has descended into the world-old game of boring in close and hitting hard for ceneral results. It is sufficient to note that Carl has been ‘getting’ them by this method, | OBI ASE PMR a GET i OES AT E. Wray.

McCarthy’s Lucky Stroke. ARL’S escutcheon has one blotch—that put there by the late Luther McCarty, before Lute became famous. Carlo’s fallen frame that McCarty walked to the white hope champion- ship: Lured by the prospect of easy change, Carl went to Springfield in 1912 and-fought McCarty. In the sixth round, when all was seemingly well, the- surprising. Luther: slipped one through and sprawled Morris on the. floor. As Carlo tells it, he rose on one knee, awaiting the count, but none came. ‘The referee, under the Missouri ruling, was not allowed to count outa ‘boxer. Carl remained down too long, he says,’ ‘and his seconds failed to coach him properly. He was “out” by the silent count, putting Lute McMarty on the throne. Nabody would believe big Carl's wail about a “‘frame-up’’ and he went down the chute to oblivion,. for a season or two. The last two. years, his sixth and seventh in the: boxing game, have seen him come forward until he is. now recognized as at the head -of. the om hefg 1 with the exception of Willard, Youth, Skill Favor Fulton. ORRIS' record says that he weighs 235 pounds and is 31 years ol@-——beyond the draft since his birthday .was in February. He has trained down to 225 pounds for his fights. Fulton-is-younger. He's 26 years old and’ when he fought Jack Moran here he weighed 217 pounds, Both he and Morris will ‘register six feet four and one-half inches above mean sea’ level at Cedar Point water's edge. Fulton is by far the better looking athlete of the two. There is nothing slovenly about the Rochester mam- moth. Tall and shapely, dclibcratc, but not too slow, he fills the cyc pleasingly, with his graccfal move- ments.and his really fine Ieft hand work: He outclasses Morris as a boxer. Nor is he without*power. He merely. extended his right hand through a short arc to drop the 175- pound Jack Moran, here. He could havé done it at any moment during the bout, too—it only lasted two and one-half rounds at that. a - 7 Manager Connie Mack of the Phil- adelphia American League club an- nounced. yesterday that Sherman of Fort Worth, Daley of McAlester, Ok., and Palmer of Dallas. would 4report thig. week, eo eee me ee ——— -- . a * ** «@ a * * In fact, it was over | PS EIU lol a RRR Te EE TENATHLETES TO FIFTHPLAGE CUBS STRIVE TODAY FOR ALL-AROUND TITLE Mighty Men.

Francis Field, this afternoon, and incitental- ly give St. Louis its last opportunity to vindicate its lack of appreciation of the junior and senior games, last Friday and Saturday. There will be a free gate to boys under 16 years old. The program, which will continue from 1 o’ciock to sundown, bringing before the public eye such athletes as Ted ‘!eredith, 'Alva Brundage, Howard Berry, Ardy Ward and a host of no less note- worthy heroes of the cinder track and sand pit. Ten gladiators, representing the north, south, west, east and central sections of the United States, will compete in ten athletic contests and by a percentage system of point awards struggle for the all around athletic supremacy of the nation. The events are so picked as to pit the title aspirants in every phase of ath- letic endeavor. A sprint, three varied weight events, three sand-pit con- tests, a distance run, a half-mile walk and a hurdle race, constitute the aft- ernoon'’s program (for the 10 con- tenders. In each event a possible perform- ance which in ‘most cases is. the world’s record in that contest, and at times just a step above the best re- corded mark, is selected as perfection and the basis for the remainder of the point scoring. For instance, in the 100-yard dash, 93-58 would credit the performers with 1000 points. On a system of per- centage the points are decreased for less attractive marks, until bed-rock is struck at .141-5s, a mark which sives 34 points. Beyond this time the runner is not allowed any points. In some events the minimum pvint award is slightly over 1. Event Originated in 1880. The all around champtonships were first started ix this country in 1880. Since that time it has been consid- ered the Blue Ribbon event of all. In Eufope it has met with even greater enthusiasm. than in this coun- try. At the Stockholm and London Olympic Games, the pentathlon and decathlon drew by. far the largest crowds. é' Every Brundage, the present title holder, is considered ‘the prime pick of today’s struggle. Brundage has been champion’ the past two years and was close’ on the heels of Jim Thorpe, when the Indian led the American athletes at the last Olym- pics. At the 1916 games at Newark he scored approximately 6500 points which its admitted to be a fine total Brundage is a well knit youth, six feet tall, weighing 188 pounds, He is massive and appears to be cheat- ing the scales a bit, but that prob- ably simply attests to. his splendid physical condition." Brundage is a former Thlirote University man. South Well Represented. Nathan Tycer, the Bulky Dixie rep- resentative “rom St. Louis, Miss., who won the Junior 56-pound weight con- test and finished second in the same contest ‘Saturday, is selected by the wise acres 1s RBrundace's logical op- ponent. Ty>4r should run up a nice total in the three weieht events and is a broad iumner and walker of no mean ability. However, aceording to one Gymnasium John, whore word is worth something, it is the fairly competent man in all events who gets the total rather than the star of a few events. t Howard Berry, representing the Meadowbrook A. C. and winner of the Intercollegiate all around title for Pennavivania VU’... is also a satarter in the 10-event meet and is the hest bet according to Faatern authorities. Rerrv. however, had failed to do much in the first two dare of the lIocel competition. Fred Kelley of the Los Angeles A.

CARDS GET EVEN BREAK Packard Loses First Contest, but Meadows Holds Enemy Safe in Second. Here’s the old chestnut, “Does the team make the manager or the man- ager the team?” back with us again. The corpse was exhumed yesterday in the form of the Chicago Cubs, who strafed Gene Packard sufficient- Jly in one inning of the first game to obtain an even break on the day's work, taking the first contest 5 to 1. while the Cards, with Meadows in the saddle, annexed the afterpiece, 4 to 2. Up in Chicago, after finis was writ- ten on the 1916 season and the whys and wherefores of the Cubs were con- sidered, a post-mortem opinion was expressed that the team had been a dismal disappointment. Merged with the. pennant-winning Federai League team, it had been expected that these Bruins would overrun all National, League competition . like the Huns through Belgium. They didn’t, though, the team pulling up fifth. Joe Tinker Martyred. Getting to the heart of the thing, Joe: Tinker was given his release on the basis of incompetency. Charles Weegham springing a decid- ed shock by signing Fred Mitchell, commonly alluded to by George Stal- lings as his “right eye.” Thus hav- ing done, Mr. Weeghman set about claiming great things, for his club this year, which was his privilege. ‘Nevertheless, a majority of experts who were with the Cubs almost con- tinuously last year, expressed the opinion that no manager alive could get more taseball out of the club than did. Joe Tinker. It was con- ceded that Tinker had. run the Cubs about as strongly as they were ca- pable of being chauffered. Mitchell faced the barrier this spring with practically the same lineup as that with which Tinker finished fifth last year. Charley Deal at third base was the lone ex- ception. A flock of pitching talent was added, as was Harry Wolter, who alternates with Max Flack in right field. But the point of this story is this: The Cubs today are in the same berth in which they closed last year and there’s no good reason in evi- dence why they won't end up in the same place. Based on yesterday's play, Mitchell has a real find in Kil- duff, the shortstop whom he obtained from the Giants in exchange for Al Demaree. Cards Coming, Cubs Going. Added to thigz, Max Flack fTooks like a real ball player. That about lets the Cubs out. Cy Williams isn’t even whispering about his 1917 achievements. Wolter’s a great fel- low for the Coast League. Deal,'they Say, is playing good ball—he looked ordinary yesterday. Zeider’s still the best utility man in the National League, Doyle only a shadow of his former self and Merkle appears through. The differance betwee the Car- dinals and Cubs is simply this: Hug- gins has young players at every po- Sition and they're. coming. Mitchell has, with the exception of one place. old players and they‘re going. And if Mitch doesn’t put the team higher than did Tinker, kind hearted per- Sons Will please refrain from using the hammer. He simply hasn't got the team. M’CONNELL, NEW COACH AT DRURY, RESIGNS TO ACCEPT PLACE AT ROLLA SPRINGFIELD, Mo., Sept. 3.—The given a distinct surprise last week when. Athletic Coach Thyprman T. Mce- Connell handed in his resignation and announced that he had accepted the position of athletic director of the Rolla School of Mines. McConnell had taken the Drury place just a few months ago, succeeding Dan M. Noe, now assistant Prosecuting Attorney. McConnell succeeds Frank Denny at Rolla, who has been commissioned an officer in the regular army and will not be identified with college sports in Missouri this year. Pr. Harrison Hale, chairman of the Drury Athletic Board, is now seeking a man to take the place of MeConnell, who will leave at once for Rolla. Frank “Pick” Dillard, who has been prominent in athletic affairs of Drury in the past as a player, is said to be considered for the place. quito fleet. Goeiitz is the former Oak Park high boy who atirred so much attention in the National In- terscholastic games. Buck is the erstwhile Wisconsin lad. Il.. Karimo of the Young Men's Or- der, Detroit; Louis MacMasters, Pitts- burg A. A.; Harold EF. Barron of the Meadowbrook Clut, and P. J. O’Con- nor, unattached, New York, are the other decathlon contestants. Ted Meredith of the Meadowbrook A. Cc. will be the most noteworthy athlete to appear for the first time on Francis Field. Meredith will run in the relays, being on the temporary card for the 440, 880, and mile quar- tet runs. Meredith was to have ap- peared last Saturday, but was unable to receive his furlough from the Government service in time. He ran here last winter at the Coliseum meet, Besides the three above-mentioned relays, team contests will be held over the two and four mile distances. The Chicago A. A. and Meadowbrook Club are represented in all five con- tests and Millrose A. A. and Colfum- bian A. C. in two. The Meadowbrook team in the mile race is the same quartet which rep- resented Pennsylvania University when it defeated the University of Missouri four for the Intercollegiate championship last May.

Unbeaten Century Crew Wins First 4-MileRace Here Oarsmen Not Even Out. of Breath, After Winning Griese- dieck Cup Contest. — Time was, about three: yéars ago, when the Century Boat Club was the merry jest of the local harbor. Asa rowing factor it was a high-class so- cial center. It had many sturdy ath- letes, afl but two of them being of the dining-room variety. The oars- men, too, preferred to have thelr legs under a table rather than under the Strain of a race. In the entire club there was but one crew that caused anything but a laugh—that was a two-man affair. It’s different today. The Century crews were the big factor of the Southwestern regatta, while the “eight” is unbeaten this year. All the important river events and the championship of ‘the Southwesterr regatta now belong to the green and white crew, which so recently was a nonentity. Yesterday was the climax of the season for the Century when its big shell romped over the St. Louis Row. ing Club’s oarsmen in the first four- ver rowed on the river here. The uth Siders went the dis- tance in unofficial time of 18m. 35«., Which is far faster than the Eastern crews row he same distance in the’ collegiate championships. Only Two Crews Start. This, too, was done without ade- quate competition as only one op- ponent braved the reputation of Coach Harry Allen's men. The St. Louis boat fluffed its chances by go. ing too far *:ward the Iliinoia shore and, entering slack water, lost con- siderable ground, giving the Century crew a chance to win cased up.

Upon today’s attendance will rest the fu- ture of the mecting. With purses rebated, in itself evi- dence that gate receipts alone have not proven satisfactory, the promot- ers admit that today is the deciding day. <A capacity crowd is almost vital if the meet is to continue.

Murphy qualified this with the as- sertion that the daily attendance had been up to expectations, although Sat- ruday’s gathering, according to hi fell a trifle short of that which h been expected... There are but the schedule upon which the pro- moters are backing to provide suffi- cient attendance to care for the purses. Today is one and Saturday, the final day of the meet, the other, If last week's showing may be taken as wu criterion, week-day crowds will not furnish sufficient revenue to meet expenses and consequently it can readily be seen that two big days are sadly needed to put the ledger right, No Some of the best horses at the track have not been taken from their stalls thus far. This has been due to the poor condition of the course, the owners being unwilling to risk their classiest possessions. This fact, say the wiseacres, accounts for the upsets which have been daily features of the meeting. Today's program carried the usta: six races. The feature event is the fourth race, the Labor Day Handicap, a $1000 stake, for 3-year-ohis and up, over a mile and a sixteenth. Ten horses have been nominated, among them being Dick Williams and Berlin, considered among the best mounts shipped here for the meeting. If the former faces the barrier it will be his maiden start, and he is almost certain to be the favorite.

The grgss even tries to come up, struggling as it can, and trees which seemed but bare dead poles in the white of snow have sent out something of green. Shell cra- ters are full of tiny plant and insect life, and creerers and weeds have sprouted afresh over ruined and broken masonry and stone. So the normal life of nature goes on, virtually normally, in defiance and poison gas and other devilish German contrivances. As I thought these things sitting in this abri dug- out, and of tne intense cold experi- enced herealbouts but a few months since, I heard a tiny noise, and pres- ently a little beast like an American chipmunk was looking at me. I sat very quietly, after throwing him a bit of my scone, from which he rat in terror, to return in perhaps a minute, take it in his mouth and disappear. The Scotchmen with me told me they had seen him often, and that he was a new beast to them, like a scion of a pet brought over by the Canadians, and that be he what he may. he made the dugout seem more cheerful to them, gave it something in tue odor of else than war. With these Scotch officers I went over a recent battlefield, a spot where men had fought the day before. They showed me where two companies of Ecotch Highlanders were snuffed out by liquid fire as moths in'the flame of a candle. Two other companies behind them went right through, wrenched the death-dealing hose from the Germans and gave them a dose of their own hell, cleaning up for a depth of 100 meters on a front of 600. This war a local fight, too. The field was sprinkled with shrap- in an old-fashioned Philadelphia street, and the torn ground was blackened by fire. They pointed out to me a German yet not removed, telling me three of the dead Ge..nar gunners had been found chained and locked to it. This has not been an unfrequent finding along the English and French fronts, where a complicated arrangement of barrage fire is carried out with mathematical precision, according to formula. The fight T here describe was not reported in the communique, either, being purely local, but it. testifies with importent emphasis the stuff in the King’s men and the power of their loyalty and courage.
