There are indications that the Gov- ernment is seeking a way out. As an instance, M. Kishkin, the new Minister of the Interior, declares that the Government has decided not ‘> take extreme measures against Korniloff, as it does not wish to ap pear revengeful. Judging from the tone of press comments and party and individual expressions of opinior, the Korniloff episude has had the effect of quick- ening interest in the war and con- vincing the public that only a well disciplined army with a_ vigorous fighting program can save Russia. Gen. Palchinsky, the new command- er of the troops in the Petrograd dis- trict, in an interview assures the public that the revolt “has not had the slightest unfavorable influence on the fighting capacity of our troops.” Telegrams from the front an- nounce the spirit of the soldiers is good, while an official dispatch re- fers to the devoted bravery displayed by the soldiers fighting ut Okla.

OVER|PRESS ASSAILS GERMANY | Engineers’ Regiment Operating | Even Papers of Pronounced Teu- Lines Back of Front That Americans Will Occupy. By THOMAS MARVIN JOHNSON, Dispatch. (Copyright, 1917; all rights WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN.FRANCE, Sept. 15.—The Ameri- can army probably will not make ex- tensive use of one of the most horri- ble developments of the war. This is liquid fire, thrown by the famous German flammenwerfer. American officers studying with the French and British armies have decided that on the whol ethe flammenwerfer about as harmless as fireworks. reserved.) is It |often proves a boomerang. French inventors have given about 20 new types of flammenwerfer t the Americans for practice. These will be used mainly to show the Americans that in this instance the of the dog is worse than his bite. The general conclusion is thet it hot for the Germans than flammenwerfer, which is simply a big hose spraying l-erosene. A pura throws the flame 75 yards, sometimes a greater distance.

After several years of study the conclusion is that the man operating the hose, ordinarily an excellent tar- get. is usually shot within a few min- When the flammenwerfer falls to the groun dit is just as likely to spray the troops emploving it.

Sharshooters. and machine gunners establishred beyond ihe range of flanie, as a rule, quickly end the at- tack. This does rot mean that the Amer- icans will not learn flammernwerfer. This weapon may be necessary ina few situations. But they will cer- tuinly not waste much time on it. The French and British are now discarding flammenwerfer. They prefer incendiary shells, which have much greater range and accuracy, with none of the drawbacks of the boomerang. It must be remembered that all these things were introduced into modern warfar eby Germans; the allies therefore want to dispense with them wherever possible. Railroads Taken Over. While American infantry in Amer!- can-made trenches listens to the American shell fire roaring over- head, an American regiment. of nhi- cago engineers is at the front takin: over the railroads and communica- tions that will serve the area which will soon be known in the com- muniques as the American front. These newcomers have already taken over a part of two of France's best known railroads. They are all expert railroad men who volunteered in the middle west for the special engineer units. Only a few of their officers are regular army men. of the men are fro mthe operating | departments of the best railroads in the United States, including engin- eers, firemen, switchmen, yardmen, If Americans colud see the men who are moving the immense traffic that is developing here they might easily fancy themselves on any big raiijiroad division between New York and Chi- cago. { i } A Special Correspondent of the Post- | ton Leaning Urge Vig- orous Action. STOCKHOLM, Thursday, Sept. 13. —(Delayed.)—-Diplomatic represent- atives of entente Governments here | up to today had displayed only “nat- ural curiosity” 'Government’s view as to the Swedish of the situation brought about through the disclos- ures from Washington regarding ca- ble dispatches sent by the German Minister to Argentina through’ the Swedish legation. Today, however, the French Minister, E. Thiebaut, called upon Foreign Minister Lind- mann with a formal request for an explanation of the incident on be- half of his Government. The other representatives of the entente na- tions are expected to follow Minister Thiebauts’ initiative. The American, British, French and Russian Minis- ters held a meeting today at which the situation was thoroughly § can- vassed. The Swedish Government has de- cided to take steps to reform condi- tions in the Foreign Office. Request for Explanation. Newspapers intimate that repre- sentations and a request for an ex- planation have been made to Ger- many. News has been received here of the action of the Argentine Government in sending Count von Luxburg his passports. Newspapers of pronounced Ger- man leanings urged the Government to adopt a vigorous attitude toward the country whose practices they de- clare, in abusing the confidence of the Swedish Government and involv- ing a friendly nation in a highly em- barrassing predicament, are unpar- donable. The German statement attempting to evade the issue by raising the question concerning America and giving no explanation or expression of regret for its own offense is de- clared by the entire press including these newspapers to be utterly unsat- isfactorv, and general demand is voiced for a further statement from the German Foreign Office. Expect Further Revelations. Much curiosity is manifested here in the press and by the public as to the contents of 61 other cablegrams, sent by Count Luxburg through the Swedish route, and the natural sus- picion has been aroused that trans- cripts of other embarrassing mes- sages forwarded through the Swed- ish intermediary may be found in | possession of the American Goverr- | Many}: ment. A pro-German paper sounds a warning for Sweden, citing the fates of Serbia and Rumania. The same rewspaper complains that the af- fair is being exaggerated and mis- represented in America to Sweden's disfavor. Aftonbladet says that it awaits impatiently for the German answer to Sweden’s demands for an exnlana- tion, believing that Sweden is en- titled to demand satisfaction in the form of disciplinary measures igainst those responsible for abus- inc Sweden's confidence.

It is familiar to all newspaper readers. But at present this is for- bidden information. The Americans agree that the French railroad beds the best they ever saw. But they think they can roan the roads with fewer men French use. They are introducing some railroad wrinkles that are new to the French. The completion of the transfer of the roads awaits the arrival of more men from the United States. HINDENBURG QUOTED AS SAYING the.

Story of Police Protection on Which Cummins Is Indicted Convict Frank Made His First Statement to As- sistant Attorney-General and a Post- Dispatch Reporter--Later Testi- fied Before Grand Jury. | | j 15.—The| The first statement by George Frank, the burglar convict, whose remarkable story of an intimate re- lationship with Policeman Ray Cum- mins has occupied the attention of the grand jury for the last week, was made to Assistant Attorney-Gen- eral S. P. Howell and a reporter for the Post-Dispatch in the office of the Attorney General in Jefferson City Aug. 20. Frank told that he had maintained an intimate personal friendship with Cummins during a period of more than six months, when he was rob- bing apartment houses in St. Louis and that he and Cummins frequent- ly discussed the neighborhoods in which he should operate, and that in return for a division of the proceeds of his robberies, Cummins offered to warn him if the Police Depart- ment obtained a good description of him and was “close on his trail.” Such warning was given on two different occasions, Frank said, and he gave Cummins money and many articles, jewelry. watches and revolv- ers stolen by him. Frank Tells of Mecting. In telling of first meeting Cum- mins, Frank said: “About the latter part of Novem- ber or the first part of December, 1915, I was going to Mrs. Margaret ‘’s with some stolen property. When I got about a block from the house, in front of Doc. Reis’ saloon at 3200 Park avenue, Mrs. —— and Mrs. called to me from across the street. I looked ucross and seen them with a man. As soon as the man came across I cuuld see he was connected with the Police Depart- ment. You cantell them. When we got to Mrs. ’s house they told him to go to the back part of the house and I stayed in the parlor. They served a few drinks and they asked me what I had and if I had what I had promised to get for them. I told them yes, but it didn’t look like a square deal to have a cop around the house in the business I was in,” After saying that the women told him Cummins was “all right’ and after being introduced to Cummins, Frank said: ‘“*‘He told me I need never fear him, that it would not be long after my picture was in the Bertillon room that he would get it out. So after that we were together at Mrs. —-——’s house and went out together, went to cabarets and had good times. Most every time we went out there would be from $5 up that I had to give him. At times he would have me get him suits of clothes and he asked me for overcoats, revolvers, etc. Gave Articles to Cummins. “TIT gave him a revolver one night the night I robbed a house on either Von Versen or Clemens avenue, near Goodfellow. I got a sunburst of dia- monds and a little pair of opera glasses that when you looked through them you could see the altar of a cathedral. Thinking that might be a keepsake I wrote a note and signed it “Outcast” and sent it back to this address. Ray Cummins mailed it for me. He told me he didn't think it would be a good idea to mail it from that district and that he would mail it over in South St. Louis.” Frank told that he gave Cummins several chains and rings and men- tioned particularly going to Theresa avenue and Lindell boulevard at 1 o’clock in the morning and giving Cummins a gold watch and chain, for which Cummins had asked. He said he accompanied Cummins to a room- ing house near Theresa avenue and Olive street to get beer and that he gave Cummins $5 to buy the beer, and that on that occasion and others when he gave Cummins money, Cummins told him he would give Him police protection. He told of being arrested at Grand avenue and Olive street the night of June 11, 1916. Describing his arrest, he said: Tells of Being Arrested. ‘There was an officer who was there, a big blond fellow, made the remark to the two detectives that they had better be careful, that they might be making a mistake. Some- body laid their hand on my shoulder and said: ‘We want you, George Frank.’ I said: ‘All right, take me.’ I thought somebody was kidding me, and when I turned around there was a gun up to me and a gun up to her (a girl who liveddwith him and was with him that night). They searched us both on the street and put hand- cuffea on me. The girl made the re- mark: ‘Wait until I see Ray Cum- mins.’ “When we got to the Central Dis- trict they searched me and found some unset stones I had gotten two Saturdays preceding that out at Mrs. McCormack's residence—I think it i® Clara avenue—and at that time I got some diamond stickpins, one with an elk or moose head with a small Government of Uruguay has declared | diamond—Ray Cummins has .hat.” 'it approves the action of the Argen- | I don't) doubt that Mr. Wilson will receive | a clear answer by the seventh war. loan.

Frank said he said to Cummins: Feared Girl Would Talk. “This is the girl's first fall. { don’t know how she will take it. Looks as if they were going to’put her through the mill and make her talk. I don't think she will. We may get out on bond.” Continuing the conversation Frank said: “He said: ‘We will spring her to- day or tomorrow.’ Next morning he said: ‘The bonds are so high. Tell her to stand pat. I will go and speak When I was questioned De- tectives Hunt and Flavin both esked ne what connections Ray Cui:amins had with me and if I didn’t dispose of some stuff to Cummins’ friend, but I didn’t tell them anything.” After telling that Cummins fre- quently called on him while he was in jail, Frank said: “Cummins used to me. One time he says: ‘I will have to be careful. The Chief is getting after me and they had me on the carpet to know what I am coming here for: so much.’ I Says: ‘You ought to be able to get around that come to see me kick in.” He says: ‘Yes, but they Aave us two connected very closely and we have both got to be care- ——- = Says Cummins Warned Him. Frank said that at the time of his arrest there were many stolen ar- ticles in his flat at 3724A Penrose street and that he would not tell the police where he lived until the flat was “cleaned out” for fear evidence against him would be found. When Cummins called on him, he said, he told Cummins to go out to the flat and “take everything but the furni- ture.”” He said that the following day Cummins told him he had taker everything out of the flat and had taken the stuff to the home of a woman they both knew and whose house they had frequented. Asked by Assistant Attorney-Gen- eral Howell if Cummius ever had warned him the police were looking for him, Frank sald: “When I lived at 3740 Olive street, I left there one morning. The night before I was out and going to pull off a job and things weren't suitable go J came back home, came back about 9:30 and walked to the front part of the house and rapped at the door and the girl opened the door and in there was Cummins and the girl and they were all upset. Cummins said: ‘George, you better get out of town. They have got wind of you some way and are going to search every house in this block in the morning.’ ” Says Police Followed Cummins. Frank said that instead of leaving town he pawned some jewelry with a nearby saloonkeeper and moved to a hotel. In telling about the robbery of the home of Alessandro C. Broletti at 4403 Olive street, the Italian Consul in St. Louis, Frank said that he gave Cummins three boxes of cigars, 10 pairs of socks and a handsome ghav- ing mug obtained there. % Frank, describing Cummins’ vigits to his apartment at 3740 Olive street, said Cummins had his own key and came and went as he pleased, g@nd that he frequently carried out stolen articles in suit cases. This, he said. attracted the attention of the police- man on the beat and on one occasion the policeman followed Cummings onto a street car when Cummins was carrying a suit case full of stolen articles, but that he never heard anything further about It. “Cleaning Out the Fiat. After telling that he gave Cum- mins five stolen revolvers at differ- ent times, he said Cummins told him about ‘‘cleaning out the flat at 8724A Penrose street” after the arrest. He said: “He went that night, and the pass key would not work, so he had to go up the porch and up the back way and go through the bathroom win- dow to getin. He put the dog on the porch and took the articles I left, this underwear and silverware, etc., and as they were going out one of the neighbors wanted to know who it was. It was Ray Cummins, and when he came back, I said: ‘Did you make it?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ I said: ‘Then it is a:! right to let them know where I live.’ I had so much that would incriminate me I wanted to get rid of that before I would let them know where I did l've. He told me he got it, but he got the best.” He said that later Sybil Brown, the girl who lived with him, saw two women with whom they and Cum- mins had been on friendly terms wearing clothing which had been In Frank's flat at the time he was ar- rested. Says Parole was Promised. Frank said that after he went to the penitentiary and al a time the last Legislature was in session, Cum- mins, in company with Joe Crites, who was attorney for the Police Re- lief Association in putting through the Legisiature a bill to increase policemen’s salaries, called on him. On that occagsion, he said, Cummins promised to get a parole for him after he had served two years in prison. . — nee fell them you are trying to muke. | ) Pressed by the Assistant Attorney: | RAY CUMMINS 1S INDICTED TWIGE:IN BURGLARY One Count Charges Sus- pended Policeman With Burglary and Larceny and ceived Stolen Goods.- --~ More Witnesses Will Be Called Monday, and Fur- ther True Bills Are Proba- ble, Prosecutor Says. ~~ Indictments Upon Burglar’s Story That He Paid Cum- mins Money, and ~Was Promised Protection. The grand jury voted today two indictments against Ray Cummins, former Secretary of the Police Re- lief Association, charging him’: with burglary and larceny and receiving stolen property. First Assistant Circuit Attorney Baer applied to Judge Davis for bench warants and they were issued. Circuit Attorney McDaniel’ said the investigation would be resumed Monday and other witnesses would be examined. It is likely that other indictments will be returned. Burglac’s Story Brought Indictment Cummins was indicted on the strength of testimony given by George Frank, a burglar, serving a term in the Missouri Penitentiary, supported by the testimony of other persons whose names were supplied by Frank. Frank, before giving his testimony, made a statement to As- sistant Attorney-General 8. P. How- ell and a Post-Dispatch reporter that he was on intimate terms with Cum- mins during a successful campaiga of house-breaking covering a period of more than six months, in 1916 and 1916, in the proceeds of which he says Cummins shared. They were together almost nightly, Frank said, at saloons, cafes and cabarets, and he gave Cummitis money almost every night that they were out together. He became aé- quainted with Cummins, he said, through a woman living on St. Vin- cent avenue, with whom he had made an arrangement for the sale of stolen goods. Cummins, he says, frequently visited him at his flat, * which he had a key. Frank was questioned after Chief of police Young received an anorny- mous letter informing him of the «s- sociation of Frank and Cumnaiins du-.- ing the time that detectives ~ were | trying to find the burglar who was robbing West End nomen almogt nightly. . It is understood that the-bui and larceny charge does not - that Cummins actually engaged in burglary, but the he aided and abdst- ted Frank in his crimes. - as a Penalty for Crime;- - _ - The penalty for burglary and-lar- eeny may be imprisonment for from two years to life. The penalty for receiving stolen property may be from two to five years in the péni- tentiary. Among the witnesses against Cum- mins are Mrs. Agnes Gray, 3740 Olive street; Mrs. Margaret En 3324 St. Vincent avenue; Dick Camp- bell, proprietor of a cafe at Grand avenue and Olive street; Campbell's wife, Miss Edna Stevens of 1305 Chestnut street, Mrs. Scott of 32312 Park avenue, two waiters at Camp- bell’s and two policemen on the Grand and Olive beat. Mrs. Margaret Champaign, of 320 Carpenter place. was called ag a wit- ness and has been in the grand jury anteroom every day during the in- vestigation, but she has not been permitted to testify. Cummins is already under indict- ment on the charge of conspiracy to commit a felony in raising a slush fund io procure the pagsage of a police salary increase bill by the last Legislature. He is out on. bond on that charge. 1X MEN IN AUTO HOLD UP TOWN >" © ee AND ROB SAFE OF $7008 Cut All Wires at Climax, Mich., and Use Four Charges of Explosive | to Blow Vault.

A Japanese man was waiting in the ho- tel office in Berne when I arrived there for a similar purpose, and early the next morning the Japanese Min- ister called and left a beautiful clock for Mrs. Gerard'‘as an expression of his gratitude for the attention shown to his countrymen. It was really a pleasure to be able to do something’ for these polite and charming people. First Visit to On Aug. 20 I paid my « German prison camp. the camp at Doeberitz, situated about eight miles west of Berlin, a sori of military camp with permanent Larracks. Some of these barracks were used for the confinement of >uch British civilians as the Ger- imans had arrested in the first days of the war. Only a few British were ?emong the prisoners there. together with a number of Russian and trench. I was allowed to converse treely with the prisoners and found that they aad no complaints. As the war went on, however, a y.umber of British prisoners of war were made by the Germans during ihe course of the great retreat of the British in Northern France. Then officers and privates began to come into Germany and were distributec in various camps. Finally, in the autumn of 1914, the British Govern- ment decided on interning a great number of Germans in England and the German Government immedlate- ly, and as a reprisal, interned all the British civiflan men who, up to this time, had enjoyed comparative free- dom in Berlin and other cities of the empire The British civilians were shut up in a race track about five miles from the center of Berlin, called Ruhle- ben. This race track in peace times was used for contests of trotting horses, and on it were the grandstands and brick stable build- Prison Camp. first visit to) This was to | in Berlin. usual | ‘and allow ings containing box stalls with hay | lofts above, where the race horses were kept.

Special Care for British Prisoners. I had organized a special depart- ment immediately on the breaking out of the war to care for the in- tereats of the English. At first Mr. Roylston Beal, a lawyer of Boston, assisted by Rivington Pyne of New York, was at the head of this de- partment ‘ot which later the Hon. John B.

Then he went away to war and the woman continued to live ‘Squire’s wife, and he was al- lowed to believe that the girl baby that followed was his own. The author tries to sanctify this episode as the call of a great love, but it 4s pretty hard to make a man “up a tree” see it in. that light. Put- ting the baby over on the old man as his own and the faithless, wife's -on- tinuing to live with him combine to make it quite impossible. But this b*t of uxorial chicanery prepares us for similar action “by the daughter after an unhappy matrimonial expe- rience and we are not surprised at all when she calmly and deliberately settles down to live in open adultery with a man she discovers she really and,.truly loves. The difference between his mother and herself is that the mother’s mis- conduct was secret, while hers is open and defiant of public opinion. But this is not all of the illicit love that is paraded in ‘“‘Beyond.” A third adulterous affair is provided for the delectation or disgust, as the case may be, of the reader. Ghita, or “Gyp,” as the heroine is called, passes into the control of Maj. Winton, her real father, through the will of her putative fa- ther, the Squire, who, mind you, has been deceived to the last into look- ing upon the man _ who stole his wife’s love as h:>s best friend. Gyp’'s mother died when the child was born. . In time the mask is thrown off and Gyp assumes before the world the role of the Major’s real daughter, a proud, beautiful, spoiled creature, who is so worshiped by her father that she is permitted to do or have anything she likes. She falls under the fascination of Gustav Fior- sen, a violinist w2tHXgenius but an in- sufferable egotist and cad.

In time Daphne stands on the threshold of motherhood with- out the benefit of clergy. Gustav, ttred of her, casts her upon the world to bring his child into it, un- comforted and unconsoled by him. Gyp steps in and provides for her. Happily the child dies. Then Gyp meets THE man. She has ample Bryan Summerhay, who desires noth*ng more. But, no! Her pride will not permit her to wallow in the mire of a divorce trial. Instead, she chooses the softer and easier way of living openly with her new love, her creed being that she does not wish to have him feel that he is bound to her, that the better way is for him to know that he is free to leave her if he tires of her. The Major, her father, sts on the side lines and ap- proves because he had also sinned. The author finally ends the lep- rous mess by letting a runaway horse | kill Gyp’s lover just as the reader is | convinced he is about to give up Gyp for a pretty young cousin. We shall not deny that Galswor- thy tells the story brilliantly, but just why he told it at all ista mys- tery. ‘‘Beyond” suggests something spiritual, but the atmosphere of the book is wholly sensual. (Scribner.) JOURNAL OF STOI.”’ HE mighty mind of Tolstoi Is revealed at work in the first volume of his dtary now o'v- he English-speaking world for the first time. The translator is Rese Strunsky.and this particular section of the diary covers the period frem 1895 to 1899, during a large part of which he was at work on his novei, “The Resurrection.’ The entries are more or less sporadic, months some- times elapsing between the notes set down by the great philosopher. Each entry ts proceeded by its date and the location at which it was made. Most of them, however, were set down at his estate, Yasnaia Polyana. They are philosophic rather than revelatory of his manner of living. though there is much in them about visitors and his relations with cor- respondents and disciples. The evolutfonary processes of the philosopher’s brain -are- apparel:t throughout the entries. A thought begins.to germinate and Tolstoi sets it down as it first came. Gradually it evolves into a powerful convic- tion consistently and securely built up by ratiocination, the convolutions of which lay bare before the reader. This process is repeated many tin:es. The journal appears to have een kept chiefly as a storehouse of thought rather than a record of events, and the great philosopher must have drawn upon its reserve of ideas constantly. The author's thoughts) on death, religion, faith, property, class distinction, government, love, mar- rfage and sex are recorded frankly and fully. It is said that he attached great importance to his journals, re- garding them as true mtrrors of his inmost self. LEO TOL- life, The translator, in her introduction, tells of the difficulties that have a-- tended the effort to give these jour- nals to the world. It was Tolstois wish that all his papers and ments be free to humanity. without copyright restrictions. His wife. however, presented a claim to his journals as her personal property, having been given to her by her hus band, during his life, and she elected to deposit them in a museum at Mos- cow. Therefore, it has been possi- ble to publish so far only those that had been copied by relatives and friends. It is hoped, however, that access may be had later to the oth- ers and that the journals may completed to the last entry by the philosopher. In addition to the translator's introduction, there i1':- cluded in the volume an elaborate collection of notes on the journal en- tries by V. G. Chertkov, editor of-_the original Russian edition, a short sketch of the life of Tolstoi at tne end of the ‘90s, a detailed list of his writings from 1895 to 1899 and a f1}) index. (Alfred A.

Paradoxical as it may sound, Hall has the gift of making you read his stuff whether you like it or not. He is forever holding out the threat that the next page of the book is the best and it would be foolish to quit it. At that, he writes in a breezy, snappy style reminiscent of Robert Chambers in the good old days. You really don’t have to know much about golf to enjoy the work. Speak- ing of his own accomplishments on the green and fairway (whatever they are), Hall says: “Tf, for every ball I have driven out Of bounds in tournament medal- play, I were to be presented with one dollar, I should now have money enough to buy out Henry Ford, John DD. Rockefeller, J. P.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. exciting incident recently was occa- flags sewed on stockings. The girls apparently had intended to create a sensation, but they made too great a hit. Their skirts were of the latest style in shortness and the flags extended on the side of each stocking from just below the knees almost to the ankles. When they passed one sol- dier he came to a rigid salute and stood motionless until they passed. Other soldiers quickly came to a |} salute.

Mill Tax: It will bring into the City’s treasury $1,400,000 of accrued, unpaid mill tax, added to the $1,800,000 already paid. City Control: It will give the City joint control of street railway operation, and power, which it now lacks, to compel exten- sions and betterments, including rapid transit lines and sub- ways. Company Credit: It will put the Company in a position, which now it does not occupy, to get funds with which to make exten- sions and other betterments ordered by the City. Taxation: It will relieve the Company to some extent of excessive City taxation and permit us to use revenue so saved in pro- viding moxe service, in paying higher wages, and in making some return to the owners, who for seven years past have had no dividends. City Purchase: It will provide for purchase of the system by the City, if it so desires, at 5-year intervals, with 4% City bonds, at a bare physical property valuation of $60,000,000 fixed by the City, which is $17,000,000 below our own appraisement of the property. Interurbans: It will reserve the City’s right to admit interurban and other street railways to this city, and establish their right to use United Railways tracks. Franchises: It will establish for all time the fact that franchise values belong to the public; that the Company -cannot capital- ize them nor earn dividends on them. | Capitalization: The adoption of the partnership plan, in Ordi- nance No. 1, would compel the Company to reduce its total of securities from $101,000,000 to $60,000,000. This plan also would limit the Company’s share of street railway earnings, for bond interest and stock dividends, to 6% on the $60,000,- 000 valuation, whica is equivalent to the normal and neces- sary public utility return of 8% on a valuation of only $45,- 000,000. Co-operation: It will end the 10-year City-Company fight over excessive ‘taxation and franchise rights, and establish City- Company co-operation for more and better service. We believe a great majority of the men and wo- men of St. Louis will approve a settlement producing these results. We believe only a small minority wish the City Government to persist in policies that threaten St. Louis’ street — service with a receivership. This Company speaks directly for 30, 000 St. Louisans—its employes, its security holders and their famnilies. We are as loyal to and as proud of St. Louis as any of its other citizens, and as eager to do our share in promoting the City’s growth. We do not ask that the City, if it ever buys this system, shall pay for a dollar of “water”. We do not ask to he allowed to earn dividends on a dollar of “water” All we ask is a fair wage for the labor and capital employed in providing St. Louis and the St. Louis suburban district with first class street railway service—and we are as eager to extend and im- prove it as omy of you are to have it extended and improved.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, says: With the usual Saturday inactiy- ity, prices on the Stock Exchange moved irregularly backward = and forward, with the downward ten- dency prevailing. Industrial shares were today. more inclined to weak- ness than the railways. A decrease of $11,400,000 in the, New York bank surplus, bringing the excess reserve down to $65,000,- | 600, partly at least explained the. week's continuance of 5 and 6 per cent money rates on Wall street. This surplus is still nearly $53,000,000 larger than that of two weeks ago, | but the money market has probably been watching tendencies.

His pay was at the rate of about 50 cents a minute, actual playing time. ° Capitalizing his present salary of $15,000, at 6 per cent, Speak- er’s present cash value figures to be $250,000. Celebrating his tenth anniver- sary ‘in the American League vesterday, Speaker, 1916 cham- pion batter of the A. IL, raised his mark for the season to .353, by cracking out three hits in five attempts. Speaker was the whole show, although he had eight as- sistants on the field Tris Speaker Celebrates. All the Cleveland star did was to drive across Graney with the first run of the game, while he himself tallied three—so he was responsible for two-thirds of the markers credited to the Fohlman. While he drove in the initial count, he started the rallies that put the Indians on the road to their others. Speaker in the 10 years that he has been in the majors has hit under the .300 mark only once. That was in 1908, the year he broke in when in #1 games he Was credited with an average of .220. Since then, however, he has always been in the select circle, reaching the heights in 1916, when he clouted .396 to beat out Ty Cobb for the title. In the 10 years that Speaker has been in the big show he has for a grand average of .343— quite a figure for this stretch of time. He-has gone to the plate 4953 times and cracked out 1795 safeties. His runs number 886. In the matter of cracking out bingles and scoring runs, 1912 ‘was the best the Texan has en- joyed. During that campaign, when the Red Sox won the pen- nant and beat the Giants in the world’s series, Speaker made 222 , safeties and tallied 136 times. “Only on an other occasion, 1916, when he made 211 hits, did he go over the 200 mark.

Clarence Gamble, veteran Country Club tennis player, has probably passed out of the championship flight for good as a result of his defeat yesterday afternoon by the youthful Triple A star, Ted Drewes, in straight sets, 6—3, 6—3. Drewes was com- pletely master of the man who won the 1916 title, to the surprise of the city. The tournament entered the semi- final stage as a result of yesterday’s matches. Walter Finger entered the second to last round for the first time in his career, beating Ray Schuessler, 4—6, 6—3, 6—2. Josties defeated Von Reppert, 6—2, 6—1, and Roland Hoerr won from George Smith, 6—2, 6—1. This brings Drewes and Hoerr to- gether in one semi-final this after- noon, and Josties and Finger in the other. Drewes has beaten Hoerr this year, while Josties is an almost certain winner. 5—7, LAST NIGHT’S FIGHTS Phil Bloom of Brooklyn, broke his an- kle in the second of a 10-round bout with Bennie Leonard, lightweight champion, at Pittsburg.

The match finally went to Mises yee 6—4, 4—6, Two Coaches Believe Nebraska Eleven Has Best Team in’ Valley A T least two coaches of Mis- souri Valley Conference football teams have already ex- pressed the belief that Nebras- ka will win this year’s football title. Coach Schulte of Missouri and Coach Richard Rutherford of Washington, are the leaders referred to. Both have told Post-Dis- patch correspondents that Ne- braska has suffered little by enlistments, whereas all other schools have been hard hit. These opinions are not to be considered the usual ‘“bear’’ stories, given out as camouflage to cover real conditions. The losses are known. COLUMBIA, Mo., Sept. 15.—Mis- souri University’s football team will be an uncertain quantity throughout the 1917 season. Six old Tigers will return but three of them, comprising what would be the most formidable backfield in the Valley, have enlisted in‘'a base hospital unit. in Kansas City and are subject to call at any time. Regular practice will stari Monday. Harry Viner, “Bill” Collins and Norris Rider are the backfield stars who will play until called for oversea service. The linesmen are Capt. Paul Hamilton, center or tackle, ‘‘Heinie’’ Bass, end, and Slusher, end. Coach H. F. Schulte said that Mis- scl'ri’s most crying need was a quar- terback since Stankowski, the fight- ing Pole who piloted the 1916 eleven, has joined the army. And the lines- raen outside of the three mentioned “ill have to come from raw material. It is belleved that John Marshall avd Dick Whittenberg will return this year. Whittenberg has written that he will return as soon as he has finished putting in a fall wheat crop and the coach is willing to hold a tJece open for him for an extra week. Shulte Likes Valley. Shulte said that from all indications Nebraska hag the best chance for a Strong early season team, as seven old Cornhuskers would return and there was a wealth of freshmen ma- terial available. Missouri’s standing would be dependent, he said, on how long the old men could stay. War conditions have even affected the coaching staff. Harry Lansing, last year’s captain, was to have helped Schulte tutor the line, but he las been given a position by the Government to help direct army ath- letics at Fort Sill, Ok. “Snooze” Grovees, a member of last year's all- Valley team, may be used as assistant coach. With the re-entrance of Oklahoma into the list for the approaching sea- scr the Tiger schedule for 1917 will be as follows: Oct. 6—William Jewell at Columbia. Oct. 13—Kansas Aggies at Columbia. Oct. 20—Ames at Ames, Io. Oct. 27—-Drake at Columbia. Nov. 3—Oklahoma at Columbia. Nov. 10—Nebraska at Lincoln. Nov. 17—-Washington at St. Louis Nov. 29—Kansas at Columbia. The same officials who acted in last sea- son's games will be here this year, with pos- sibly a few adcitional ones to these, who have already been named: E. ©. Quigley. J. C. Grover, C. E.

PAY FOR PLAYERS NOW JOPLIN, Mo., Sept. 15.—The West- crn League will not submit to the recent ruling of the National Base- Lall Commission that players drafted hy the Major leagues will be paid for when the players report, next spring. President E. W. Dickerson of the Western League informed J. H. Far- rell, secretary of the National Com- mission by telegraph last night. “Recent ruling on draft conflicts be defeated if they played interco!- legiate football. The promptness with which a ma- jority of the schools of the country responded to the views of the War Department and of President -Wilson, advocating the resumption of foot- ball, is having an effect on the alum- ni of.the “big three,’ now the only important “holdout” schools in the country. It is expected that.some sort of elevens will be out tn the field at all three of these institutions and that a schedule will be arranged which may include contests between them- selves. Harvard 1s already preparing to play “informal” football and to this end is negotiating for games with Boston College and. Tufts, both of which had good teams last year. Tufts defeated Harvard in 1916, but has lost practically all of its old team, including Dr. Whelan, the coach. Boston College will again be ecached by Charles Brickley, the for- mer Harvard star. Percy Haughton has. volunteered to eoach the Harvard team free of charge. .Yale and Princeton may takc steps soon to get in line. Wheth- er they do or not, a fairly good sea- son is assured this year. Thorpe to Play Football. Big Jim Thorpe, the smashing In- dian fullback, is again to lead the 1917 Canton (O.) professional eleven, it has been announced by Jack Cu- sack, manager of the team.. Canton won the world’s professional cham- pionship last fall. Thorpe, who played: left field for the Cincinnati Reds until repur- chased recently by the New York Glants, has assured Manager Cusack he will be in Canton as soon as the pigskin flies. At least seven of the men who helped Canton capture the champion- ship last fall are to be back in the line this fall. Cusack said that he had contracts from Edwards of Notre Dame. and .Buek of Wisconsin, tackles; Garlow of Carlisle, center; Ghee of Dartmouth, quarterback; Dunre of Dickinson, a lineman; Kel- —_——— ls N. hag been found advisable to abandon the freshmen schedule and the var- Sity Nst is a strange looking one compared with former years when Princeton and Harvard appeared, Pennsylvania isAhe only big game slated and it will be decided in Bos- | oe ton on Nov. 10.

The Army's return pieased one school at least. That was Brown University, which lost two of its most important games when Harvard and Yale went into re- tirement. Army and Dartmouth will fill two of the 10 places on the Prov. idence eleven's schedule. Nera at to football | Eleven Games for Penn. Pennsylvania will play 11 football games. thig season—not a bad war- time schedule. In fact, there are more contests than in recent years of peace. The Quakers have inserted two mid-week games into thelr schedule, one of which with Georgla Tech will enlist widespread interest Gecrgia, according to rumor, is more completely armed for bear than Rob- ert Folwell, the red and blue coach, appears to realize. This game will come second on the Quakers’ list. Franklin Field should be quite a fcotball center this season. Pitts- burg. Michigan, the Carlisle Indians and Cornell will appear there, while the Philadelphians will meet Dart- mouth at Boston‘and will journey to Forbes Field to play the University of Pittsburg eleven. \ ‘ \ ===] . ‘ [WRAY 'S cow Cicsitsetecideeeseereeietieeiemenemicienaains a ee Sy Watch Your Goat, Mr. Rowland. OHN McGRAW'S ings.” John’s riding master, “Buck” (alias “Choke-em Charlie’) Herzog, has been turned out to pasture, to rest up and develop a new line of snarls, inuendves ard nags such as he is wont to employ to tease the en- emy’s goat away from him during the heat of conflict. Buck will be back at second base with all that un- sportsmanilike ability of his doctored up to full efficiency. In a lesser degree other of Mc- Graw’s players have developed the “riding’’ habit, so dear to the old days of Baltimore brawls and Cleve- land riots, which marked McGraw’s early career in the baseball world. Fletcher, Zimmerman and other Giants are not a bit ladylike. In fact, barring the intervention of some higher authority, it is prob- able that. the coming world's series will be introduced to the finest line of baseball “riding’’ heard since George Stallings’ side-line artists talked and played Connie Mack’s nice boys out of their ‘world’s laurels. ; * 7 . Sox Have One Veteran. OW far Chicago can stand the H sort of gaffing it is almost certain to get will of course figure to some extent in the settlement of world’s honors. Between two equal clubs it is natural that the team whose players best retain their poise should win. Of all the White Sox, only one man of world's series experience remains —Eddie Collins. The Giants, on the other hand, have three or more. The Giants are hard-faced fighters, with few exceptions, and will not be light- ly disturbed. If their pitching were eq ial to that of the White Sox, their victory would be easy to predict. In the absence of the same high-class hurling, they may be ferced to resort to the tactical atuff to even up the discrepancy. . - * R tional Commission ought to be sent out.

Or it may be that he has said “Out, damned spot!” and is now counting on the good (;erman Republican vote of St. Louis for his re-election; provided always, of course, that the Democrats have so little consideration for the life of their State party as to give him the nomination. In that event, any old Republican can win, and I will help, and still hold up my Democratic head. But why thus bemean the Senator? Has he not voted for every war measure? He says so. Hag he not stood behind the Presi- dent? We know it. You, Mr. Editor, in an editorial on the 12th inst. said that Mr. Gordon had not taken a bushel of coal out of the State bins, he had just taken it off the car tracks. One of our local statesmen said: “f ain't done nothing, but I won't do it no more,” so our senior Senator “ain't done nothing’ but support the war meas- ures, lend his encouragement to Jim Reed, La Follette, Gore and others in their fight “wpon the same measures, and it’s up to the Democrats of the State of Missouri to see that he “don't do it no more,” even if the lyunklin County Democrats are afraid to come out tn the open and say so. Pope says: Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer, And without sneering, teach the rest to sneer; Willing to wound, and .yet afraid to strike, Just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike: y~Alike reserved to blame, or to commend, A tim'rous foe, and a suspicious friend. They say the senior Senator is old enough to retire from troubling the political waters of the Grand Old State of Missourl, but they have never yet told us that he was old enough to have been so well known by Alexander Pope. RUSSELL BESSELL GIBSON. Thanks From Sisters of St. Mary. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Sisters of St. Mary desire to thank the Post-Dispatch for its generous space in giving publicity to the dedication and for- mal opening of the new building, and the annual bazar of Mount St. Rose Hospital, which took place Monday, Sept. 3. They also take this opportunity of thanking the generous public for their loyal and liberal Support, and those who participated § in raising the funds which made the new building possible, and to all who partici- pated in the bazar, which makes it posst- ble for the Sisters of St. Mary to carry on the work of caring for the worthy poor who are so unfortunate as to become af- flicted with tuberculosis, and to those who assisted in receiving at the formal open- ing and the dedication of the new building, SISTERS OF ST. MARY, Mount St. Rose Hospital. 9 Street Car Annoyances. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. With reference to the expensive and long- winded advertisements that the United Rail- ways Co. is running in the papers these days, it might be well to call that com- pany’s attention to the old adage, “The best advertisement is a satisfied customer.” That saying has much truth in it. I would like to suggest a couple of little things which that company might do to make satisfied customers. For some reason or other unknown to anyone they have taken out the electric bells with which the passengers signaled when they wanted to get. off, and substi- tuted buzzers, which make such a faint sound that often the motorman cannot hear them, let alone the passenger. The result is the passenger never knows if the bell rang or not and often gets carried by his stopping place. Another source of annoyance ground glass that has been put in the transoms on the front platforms. When a passenger has to stand up (which half of them do) he is thus deprived of the only opportunity he had to watch for his stop- ping place. The curtains are usually pulled down half way or more on the sides and the only chance he has is to look out of the front. H. R, JAMES. is the THE FRANCHISE HEARINGS. Members of the aldermanic Committee on Public Utilities complain that the hearings they have granted on the proposed United Railways settle- ment are fruitless. No analyses affording much information on the scope and effect of the pend- ing proposition have been made, they declare. But these hearings ought not to be fruitless. The attempt to force a settlement seems to have been cunningly planned for a time when public attention is engrossed. with the events of the war and the preparations for fighting. But while it is overshadowed by subjects so intimately related | to the national interest, the effort for new fran- | _chises is not overshadowed in importance by any- | the milk producers and dealers either agree to put thing in the whole range of local possibilities af- | prices up to a figure the poor cannot pay, or quit | fecting St. Louis’ own welfare and shaping its | supplying milk? Public Welfare Director Schmoll i ¢ | course in the future. In long years past the city authorities have taken no decision more important to the people of St. Louis than the decision to be taken on these franchises. They will take none during long com- ing years. The problem of intra-ccommunity transit is more vitally associated with city well being and growth ‘than other municipal problems. The larger the : city, the more vital is that association. It is, for ‘Instance, even more important to New York, | whose life would suffer almost total paralysis by | the upsetting of reliable, quick means of transit from its center outward, than it is to St. Louls. A problem of the gravest concern now, it will in- crease cumulatively in concern with increase in | St. Louis area and number of inhabitants. | The hearings so far may seem unprofitable to the committee, but they have not seemed’ wholly unprofitable to the public. In exposing demerits and points of doubt, advocates of the plan have | had a usefulness not so much inferior to that of its oppouents. Arguments for some of its features have struck false notes calculated to close ears to less objec- One such note is the ridiculous pretense that the company, in consenting to fran- chise renewals, has done so reluctantly, after de- feat in a struggle with a merciless bargainer; that the tentative valuation is very low instead of very high; that in accepting it the company is sacri- ficing rather than gaining millions. The benefits to the company in the arrange- ments are very ubvious, much more so than those to the city. to the company at the expense of city interests that ought never to be impaired? A fair and reasonable compromise is not to be opposed. The hearings should make an exhaustive showing on the respects, if any, in which the or- dinances depart from a fair and reasonable ar- rangement, and should be largely attended. Past years have thrown a mighty light on mu- tionable features. To what extent are benefits conceded nicipal utility policy. St. Louis must take no action indicating that it has not seen the light. The alertness, progressiveness and degree of so- phistication which a city reveals in dealing with these utility problems is, as has been repeatedly shown, a curiously accurate index of its alert, progressive, sophisticated qualities in all other activities, public and private, on which city ad- vance depends. a — a a OUR TWO LOYAL SENATORS. Festus Wade ‘‘does not believe that there are two more conscientious and loyal Senators in the Senate than Reed and Stone.” While few Missourians will agree with Mr. Wade, his apol- ogy still leaves in serious question the judgment of the two Senators and their helpfulness in exalt- ed position to the people and the Government in time of unexampled need. If it includes no more loyal as well as no more conscientious members, the Senate has, indeed, fallen on evil days. a, Le se. _~ = |S SAUCE FOR GOOSE AND GANDER. » The Rev. George W. Allison's open letter to Mayor Mollman of East St. Louis, as given out for publication; seems to be an adequate reply to Corporation Counsel Sullivan’s sneer that the East Side clergymen who demanded the Mayor's resignation are “dupes and tools who think every- body else is as simple as they are.” An unprejudiced reading of the correspondence between Mollman and the Minister leaves the im- pression that Mr. Allison has carried off the hon- ors in a way that scarcely bespeaks simplicity on his part. Displaying not the slightest trace of rancor or prejudice, the pastor’s letter shows that he re- fuses to be drawn away from the actual point at issue. He reminds the Mayor that when certain policemen were made defendants in grand jury indictments, he forthwith suspended them. Why, then, he asks, should not the Mayor suspend him- self when he, too, is made defendant in a grand jury indictment growing out of an investigation into the same disturbances which caused the po- licemen to lose their jobs? Relentlessly he pushes the point home when he continues: What right or pledge have we to expect a better service from you than you would ex- pect from those you suspended? If you were justified in the suspension of the police offi- cers, why are you surprised at such resolution as was adopted by the Pastor's Alliance. But Mr. Allison does not_stop there. Hig dis- passionate answer to the plea of Mollman’s sup- porters that the Attorney-General and the grand jury, which were instrumental in bringing the in- dictments, were playing politics is, to say the least, convincing. After all it is not the Attor- ney-General or the grand jurors who are on trial, but Mayor Mollman himself. The question is not whether anybody is playing politics, but whether Mayor Mollman was derelict in his duty to pre- vent the murder of scores of innocent men, wom- en and children in East St. Louis. The members of the Pastors’ Alliance may be “tools” and “dupes” and “simple,” as Mr. Sulll- i } | al van remarked or they may not. But they certain- ly are not to be despised, if all of them are like Mr. Allison, when it comes to epistolary polemics. Ap, dedi. _— ae a THE PEOPLE’S FOOD. The critical situation with regard to the St. Louis milk supply, due to the determination of the milk producers to increase the wholesale price from $2.20 to $3.50 per hundred pounds, is but part of the food and fuel problem that confronts the people on account of war conditions. Fuel Administrator Garfield foresees trouble with regard to coal; and warns the consumers to, practice economy. The city of Denver is going into the coal business and has leased mines, in order to supply its poor with coal at cost. But what is St. Louis to do if, as threatened, suggests a municipal farm. But this would only supply the city’s institutions with mlik. The poor, and especially the babies, must suffer. The babies will sicken and die, unless the mothers can buy enough milk at reasonable prices. The production and handling of food and fuel are not public services in the sense that railroad transportation is. The farmers, dairymen, mine owners, and coal dealers, do not have to apply for franchises before they are permitted to produce and handle food and fuel. But their responsibil- ity is as great or greater. Farmers and mine owners are given the privilege of using land. Dealers, wholesale or retail, have the privilege of using the roads and streets. And all receive pro- tection at the hands of society. Upon their faith- ful, reasonable service the people must depend for existence and comfort. The milk producers and dealers of the territory that supplies St. Louis depend upon the people of this city for their livelihood and their profits. They cannot afford to act unreasonably and in a spirit of mere greed towards their customers. The Post-Dispatch will expect them to come to an agreement that will be fair and just to all con- cerned. « A VALUABLE TIP. Excise Commissioner Mooney gave St. Louis County saloon keepers some good advice Friday. He told them that it would be wise on their part to conduct for themselves a campaign against | lawless saloons and warned them that if they did not do so they all would be put out of biisiness. The saloon has a great many enemies who-are constantly growing in power, but its worst enemy is that lawless liquor seller. His greed, his con- tempt of authority, his utter disregard of de- cency, his willingness to profit by the corrupti- bility of public officials have done more to swell the Prohibition ranks than all the arguments of the total abstainers. There is scarcely any other business in which those who are honest and law-abiding are not banded together to drive out the unfair and un- scrupulous competitor. There is no other business in which this can be done more successfully than in the saloon business. Saloon men everywhere are learning this, although the knowledge is rather belated. Mr. Mooney has given the County dramshop men a valuable tip. a «+ + re THIRD-CLASS ANIMAL EEEPEBS. It need not occasion any great perturbation be- cause nobody at the City Counselor’s office can find anything in the charter or ordinances to dis- qualify an enemy alien as a third-class animal keeper. It would be better, of course, if all enemy aliens had become citizens, including third-class animals keepers and all other holders of city jobs. But it is not past belief that a third-class animal keeper who has been neglectful of his citizenship privileges may still be a very excellent and painstaking third-class animal keeper. In other words, there is nothing necessarily in- compatible between alien allegiance and caring for the comfort of even the highly-prized elephant, Jim, of our zoo. It has not been intimated that the Kaiser de- sires the life of our Jim or that Keeper Tanzer, whose eligibility was impugned by the Efficiency Board, would do anything to Jim, no matter what the Kaiser’s wishes might be. And since Jim’s welfare is the only thing at stake, that seems pretty well to settle the entire question. Of course, it is unfortunate that Tanzer can’t vote to continue the administration in power, but on the other hand a very good voter might make a very indifferent elephant tender. And it is not the Efficiency Board’s business to see that all holders of city jobs are voters. The Efficiency Board’s business is to see to it that all third-class animal keepers are good third-class animal keep- ers and that Jim is properly cared for. dp. Lp di — Se YYALY’S AVIATION PROGRESS. Various stories of the wonderful progress in aviation made by the inventors and fliers of Italy are made credible by the news, in Thursday’s Post-Dispatch that Maj. Lopez, chief of Italy’s flying corps, made a flight at Norfolk, Va., of 650 miles in eight hours, with 11 passengers. It is said that “the machine, in starting, makes a noise like a locomotive leaving a station with a string of freight cars, but when it gets its mo- mentum it sails evently and does not rock.” Maj. Perfetti, head of the Italian Aeronautic Commission in the United States, recently told us that air cruisers capable of carrying 25 per- sons and carrying a useful weight of close on five tons are in use by the Italian army. They go at a speed of more than 150 miles an hour, and one of them has flown without stopping from Turin to Naples, 920 miles, in about 10 hours. Meanwhile, America is not idle. The new Lib- erty motors, combining the most valuable fea- tures of American and European aeroplane en- gines, are America's contribution to the solution of the aviation problem, and especially to the great task of winning the war in the air, against Germany's fleets of swift and powerful airships. As soon as America and her allies can put into the air a preponderating number of fighting and bombing planes, the end of the war will be near. And they not go on errands of bloody re- prisal, as me American newspapers advocate. It will be sufficient if they gripple the enemy by fighting along the lines recognized by interna- tional law. One thing appears certain, that the war has | hastened the success of aviation by many years, _" “a a in _—— —— - . . we 2% ion't, © 2° Asa + Zi ahavats sane at Sy .¢ a “3 ee i. . ._ ae “Fs e's ty ¢ . ay Satie $ ‘. . > Py 7 . e ‘ s ‘ Po dt 2 > 7 se % ‘4° 4 a / . t > + the * fst a of Sunt * r * MS * ~s © og ao *Fe,* = z f | + 13h" . ‘ . “4 Sf. -_-_ ee wha > ’ + wt i, yet Pls ye 7 V4 wy - ‘ +> . .

It is a matter of which I have been thinking for some time, and I ex- pressed a thought which must have been more or less at large in most people’s minds ever since the war started. What I said, briefly, was that unless I am mistaken our American radicals have greatly impaired their usefulness by seeming to be unpatriotic. What precipitated my observation was the raid on the home of Prof. Scott Nearing. I didn’t recall that Scott, who is an old friend of mine, had been doing any specific thing in opposition to the Government; but knowing the trend of radicalism in the country today, I assumed that he had been up to something more or less characteristic of his kind. I sometimes regret very much that the radicals have not had some stabilizing mind among them to serve them at this time. They needed very much to be told that when a country goes to was its citizens are supposed to go to war with it. That is, the celebrated sentiment ‘‘My country—may it always be right; but right or wrong, my country!’’ expresses something that none of us can defy and retain the respect of our fellow country- men. There may be flaws in it; but it is folly to try to point them out. None of the great human passions responds to reason. **Unfortunately, our radicals did not see that. or were never warned that it is the case. At any rate, they began one after another persisting in radical opinions and holding odd views as soon as the war swept down on us, and today they are regarded as a proscribed class. No one seriously believes that they hold any institution in the country dear, or that they have the least respect for any of the means by which we have either achieved what we have or strive to re- tain it. This is a pity, for we had developed in the country, after a long period of acute want, a school of radicalism which was expressing some of our dost as- pirations. They were held in quite general respect, and exercised a broad educational function. One could scarcely go anywhere at all popular with the masses without hearing one of them speak, and their publications, almost all of which have been suppressed during the war for reasons so obscure that we are for the most part unable to judge them, had their place on the reading tables of thinking people all over the country. **What caused these people to make such an error of judgment is more than I can make out. It is a good deal like trying to analyze the motives of Sena- tors Reed and Stone. My guess is that not being quite sound in their philosophy, they developed exag- gerated ideas of the importance of both themselves , “ owe eee ous and the things for which they stood. That is an easy thing to do, and perhaps they are not the first group of radicals which has destroyed its usefulness in that very way. How much less in stature ate’ they all than the great philosophers, who have rallied to the flag in time of peril and tried to advance its ideals in time of peace! ‘‘I am afraid unselfishness is not a distinguishing or outstanding trait among our American radicals. Lest the war eclipse them, they opposed it, only by that folly to be destroyed.’’ | socrates‘ theory that we had so many inventions the possibilities of which never had been determined by war that we had to have one to see what could be ‘ore with them is gaining ground on the thinking front. | She: Are all married men to be exempted from military service?

But that morning he did not urge his horse forward. “Good morning,” he said, as he turned his horse to the box and reached out her mail. “Good morning,” quickly, and with both hands outstretched. “I want to thank you.

Then Reddy and Sid smelled them, and they decided they would take just a taste to see. “Yum,” said Reddy, as he tasted “They are good; let’s eat them, Sid.” | “We ought to give Bennie Bear a bite, because he thought of eating them,”’ said Sid, who was a littic more generous than his brother. “Take a bite of each,” they said, handing both apples to Bennie Bear, and in a minute more the woods rang with the cries of little Reddy |Fox and his brother.

He will be careful how he takes big bites after that.” “How can you fill an apple with thread?” asked Reddy and Sid, and then Mrs. Fox showed them how an apple could be sewed through and through many times with a long needle and a long thread. The only marks showing on the apple were the tiny holes the needle ticed if you rubbed the apple over well with your hands or paws. “There; I guess he will think he has been caught in a net when he bites into that,’’ said sly Mrs. Fox, as she finished sewing a nice red apple and handed it to Reddy.
