The " substance of what he said was this: “There is not. the least uncertainty as to how this war will end. At its beginning, the German General Staff summoned the scientists of Germany into consultation on every step; each branch of the army called to_its Service professors from the universities and scientific experts from its numerous factories; but, as the war con- tinued, the policy changed, the regular of- ficers of the army replaced the scientific advisers, and now the latter have little in- “fluence. In England, the .course of events has been the reverse: in the be- ginning the staff officers had their way; but, as the months passed, more and more were the men of science called to help in advice and in actual field duty, until how every man of note in the scientific life of England is at work for the country.

This was at the second battle of Ypres, in which the Canadian soldiers suffered so cruelly. The plan then fol- lowed was to transport to the front-line trenches steel cylinders containing the liquefied gases, level down the edge of the parapet toward the British forces, letting the nozzles project over the top, and then wait for.a favorable wind. Of course, as soon as the idea of the Germans tn ) planning this hideous mode of warfare was recog- nized, it became comparatively easy to block it; (the preparations could always be seen: then a Way into a big yard where men | stretcher will not do.

It was said that one reason fer the great success of the British operations at the Messines Ridge, when was the skill for 50 or more mines were exploded, of the geologist who planned their location; ‘I cannot vouch for the truthfulness of this, but, personally, knowing the men .concerned, I be- lieve: it. Jn this war the “weather man,” the meteorol- ‘ogist, has come into his own. No one laughs at ‘him now. His information {s desired by the ar- ‘tillery oificer, who has to know the temperature of the air and iis moisture content, the strength of the wind at different levels, and the like, in order that he may aim his guns. When the ‘temperature is hovering about the freezing point, the staff wish to know if the improvised roads will ‘be frozen sufficiently to permit the movement of guns or motor trucks. The Captains of the air squadrons must know the condition of the at- mosphere up to heights of 20,000 fect. The im- iportance of the information may be judged from | the fact that we were asked repeatedly if there was not some way by which the American weath- -er reports could be kept from reaching Germany. Our reply had to be that, with Mexico where it | Was, nothing could be done. oe ee if Atmosphere Cuts Big Guns’ es At the beginning of the war the value of meteorological predictions was not recognized by the allies. Two incidents produced a sudden change. One morning the batteries were ordered to resume firing at the same range as on the prev lous afternoon» no change in clevation was ‘made, and the shells began landing in their own ‘front trenches, whereas the day before they had reached the enemv’'s lines. Such’is the effect of marked changes in the af® In the early days ‘the British weather reports leaked into Germany; ‘and one week every condition reported indicated that for a few days ahead the weather would ‘be such as the Germans desired for the dispatch of Zeppelins over England.

This is the exact dif- ficulty. Many inks are in use, of such a character that the obvious tests would result in a destruc- tion of the evidence. The moral is, do not use the obvious tests. One can easily see what a field there is here for chemical investigations; and it is satisfactory to know that they have been made, and are continuing. Other ways in which chemistry is being applied in warfare are numerous, indeed, but are almost obvious to one who asks himself how it could be used. The all-important fact {s that the pro- fessional soldier has come to recognize the value of the chemist, and the latter has welcomed the opportunity for service. i een Science of Gun Concealment * Whether or not camoufiage is a part of science, I cannot decide. What is certain is that the ¥ rench Government included it asa part of our program of isvestigafion of the scientific work of France. The word itself, I was told, was adopted from the stage, meaning the art of making some- thing look different from what it really is—hid- (ing reality in the guise of innocence. This art is surely a science now, in its perfection. I was walking—struggling rather—up the hill on whose summit is the tiny abri known as the Fort of Douaumont, when I heard a battery of French “seventy-fives” operating very near; the shells were flying within a few feet of me. I looked around to sec where the guns were, and I could not discover anything. The hillside, as-far as I could see, was stmply a desolate waste of pock- marked earth, one shellhole after another. Final- jy I saw wisps of faint smoke, that was all. My companion smiled and asked if I couldn’t see the guns. I said J could not, and he replied that he ‘was glad, because then no enemy could either. As I was then shown, the battery was about 100 feet away. Such is camouflage. . We saw the whole process at another time. Great nets are suspended in a shed, and bunches of dried grass, stained to suit definite conditions, are tied on; then thé net is spread over the ground and elevated slightly where necessary, forming! ‘inconspicuous humps over the batteries. If the neighboring earth is reddish, so are the bunches | of grass tied to the nets. When two front-line | trenches face each other for some time, the ob- servers on each side get to know each minute feature of the territory between. Then some front trench, and note with scrupulous care some object, a branchless tree, a dead horse, even a dead soldier; within a few hours an exact copy 3is made, having a steel frame work sufficient to conceal a man; in the night the real tree or horse | or man is removed and the steel image is sub- | stituted, with its observer or listener inside. | Stories are told of the two enemies trying to re- | consequences to one, Other illustrations of cam- T 7” them, because I am convinced that the Germans do not as yet know them all.

If the British line receives this favor from the Germans, the gas is studied, and the French chemists are told; and vice versa. ‘There is complete co-operation. All the time, too, great laboratories in Paris and all over England are at work; all the chemists of both countries are Government servants today. The men em- ployed in actual scientific work, including testing, are numbered by tens of thousands. iG | Among the other ways in which chemists are /helping to win the war is one which will proba- bly strike an American as semi-amusing, although | it is far from it. This is by the investigation of | ‘invisible inks. The subject sounds reminiscent of detective stories. As a matter of cold fact, En- gland and France are thoroughly penetrated by the German spy system; and the secret service officials of both countries are kept busy to the utmiost of their ability in order to cope with the situation. It is much easier to devise an invisible ink than it is to discover the method by which the writing may be revealed. For, imagine a piece _ =.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. : ’ A little story in three chapters: “1, During the summer of 1914 the Post- Dispatch devoted a score or more of its valued columns to a discussion and sharp “eriticism of former President Roosevelt for “Wuilding the Panama Canal, placing all of =the onus upon him. ®. Since the outbreak of the European ‘war the Post-Dispatch, with not a few other honest but misguided papers, has periodically inquired about as follows: ‘Roosevelt was President seven and one- half years; if he is such a friend of pre- paredness what did he do for it during the time he was in the White House?” 3. A few days ago the Post-Dispatch ‘Carried an editorial under the headlines, ‘' Two Naval Voyages,” contrasting the ~-* voyage of the Oregon in 1898 with that of “a destroyer which recently made the trip from Pacific to Atlantic waters in 10% days, and.commenting as follows: “To ef- een this reduction in time from 90 days to 0% days was precisely the objeet for 2Sehich the building of the canal was un- _Gertaken by the Gover ent—to add the shipyards of the Pacific coast to the con- structive resources of the nation and en- “able all naval units to be mobilized * promptly at the place of need.” ‘Nough said!

Not the least interesting of explanations bear- ing ov the mystery of Germany’s fatuous reli- ance on her submarine policy is a story coming via Holland. It is said that after the plan‘: of ruthless piracy had failed of approval by Beth- mann-Hollweg and had been positively rejected by Helfferich, it was submitted to the consid- eration of nine experts of the empire. ‘Four of the nine were large bankers. One was an iron and railroad operator, The others were presidents of civic bodies: and men versed in the agricultural resources of the country. All of the nine agreed that internal conditions {n Ger- many demanded some departure on which greater hopes could be based than on the prior develop- ments of the war. The view that each day's de- lay meant trouble and increased the possibility of unrest and disorder was strongly emphasized. All the experts also agreed that the intensive U-boat warfare would starve England out in six months, at the most, and compel] her to sue for peace. As to the effect on the United States and other neutrals of the violation of international law, the nine were likewfse unanimous in the view this need not:be given serious consideration, though they differed on the naturé of the possible con- gequences. One man confessed that America’s entrance into the war might be disastrous, but after a careful weighing of the chances decided that on the whole piracy. might be ventured on. How typical of the German expert judgment, and, in a lesser degree, of the expert judgment everywhere! They reached a decision on form. They gave long study to statistical information of the completeness which such information has only in Germany, pondered over the effect of this factor and that factor, gave due thought to the administration of practical idealists at Wash- ington and the peace intent of the American péo- ple and rendered their solemn and logical verdict. ’ But they had left out the human element, not only in their estimates on the rest of the world, ‘but even on Germany itself, which has endured harder things since than before. They took no account of moral forces. The English refused to be starved in six months. Eight or ten pow- erful neutrals were at once forced into the war. World opinion condemned Germany’s ruthless- ness, What must be the sentiments of the nine experts when they now read admissions from London and Paris that success now depends on America; that but for her entrance in the war Germany would have won? What of the rising storm of moral indignation.which is overwhelm- ing the German Government at home and abroad? == ™ — = v LUCKY BILL. Senator Stone is accused by a Cologne news- paper of being associated with Lord Northcliffe and Viscount Reading in the management of a | plot to foment strikes and revolts in Germany. Senator Stone is distinguished as the American engineer of the scheme. The charge is timely. How much better to be accused of helping the United States in Germany than of helping Germany in the United States, Oh, lucky Bill! = = ie litle if A HEATLESS AFTERTHOUGHT. Whatever the East may say or think. about five-day shutdowns and heatless holidays, the great Southwest is for them, even if they should xtend to that section. Perhaps the Southwest was critical, like other sections, when the drastic order was given, but the holders of wheat, rice, cotton and lumber are beginning to see a light. Eastern correspondents are writing to the Southwestern men to get ready for shipping soon in considerable lots. The writers say that they are beginning to see an end to their shipping tangles and in the course of days the empty cars will get back to the source of supply of the great staples, and they want them to be forthcoming in a hurry. This haste cannot be any too great for the Southwest. For the growers and dealers have un- seasonable stocks stored in their warehouses, a. il much of which has‘ been sold for weeks and/|; some of it for months, but it has been held until shipping conditions permitted removal. While the Southwest has not yet had any direct indi- cation of the lessened congestion, they are taking the word of Kastern shipping men and are pre- paring: to load promptly when the cars arrive. The West, perhaps, comprehends a traffic tieup better than .the East, for they can see their rail- roads and the terminals and they can note with- out figures when the supply of cars is exhausted, and they know that they are tied up in the Eastern yards, where the people appear to believe that long strings of cars are a part of their nor- mal big business. a. = * — Gicieice has been compelled to withdraw its A.sa'ian and Lorraine soldiers from the front be- cause of their “unreliability.”” Yet Von Hertling says the provinces are 87 per cent German. = = — Se TRADING DOGS FOR SHEEP. The plea for more wool bas found strong sup- port in the pine lands. It has been a theory for years that cut-over pine land was ideal for the raising of sheep and goats, but the progress made has been mostly with goats. When the plea came from the National’ Government for more wool, the industrial leaders of -the pine-land country went to the Northwest to learn from the sheep men there why they did not take advan- tage of the long pasture seagon, the luxuriant growth on cut-over lands and the practically stormless region to increase their herds and profits. “Too many dogs,” was the: terse answer. The investigators, who represented the Cut- Over Land Bureau of the Southern Pine Associa- tion, The Southern Commercial Congress and other influential bodies, learned that, the Western men had investigated the pine lands and were im- mensely pleased with every prospect except that of the dogs. That was the great objection. They did not propose to raise sheep to have them killed by worthless curs. So the remedy was sought. The first step was a bill introduced in the Mississippi Legislature this week to put an almost prohibitive tax on piles they might get without robbing the kitchens of their needed help. G.

I The bill atveady nas paseed one brdnch and its passage Wy the other branch is said to be as- sured. it is said that Louisiana will pass such a bij} at the first opportunity and these two states are the chief objectives of the sheep men. &.& _ wm od THE YEAR’S CRISIS. The only thing the German people seeni to have any enthusiasm for is peace. The Russian peace negotiations stirred them more than anything that has occurred within a year. The prospect of their cessation on account of Germany’s brutal terms almost caused a revolution. It is evident, therefore, that the German Gov- ernment: must have one of two things to keep the people from revolt—peace or a great victory that will insure early and favorable peace negotiations to end the war. Undoubtedly, this accounts for the much her- alded plans for a great offensive on the West. The effects of the Italian drive have passed away, the Russian peace is vanishing and something must be done to hold the much enduring people in line with the schemes of the “sword conquer- ors’ to whom anything but a German peace means ruin, A drive on the West front is the only chance. Under the circumstances it will be the last stake —the final throw in the war game. If it fails— well, it must fail. Preparations that will insure its failure must be made. This is the meaning of speed in getting ships, guns, war machines of all kinds, munitions and soldiers ready. This is the crisis of the year to which the President: re- ferred in his letter to the farmers and to the fa- yorable outcome of. which all our energies and resources must be devoted, We must make it a complete defeat of Ger- many’s military power. Anything less will pro-. long the war. , == * i CONDONING PRUSSIAN BARBARITIES. A writer who signs himself. “Charles Hooper,” is sending out letters from Seattle, Wash., two of which have been addressed to the Post-Dis- patch. His object is to excuse Prussian bar- barities in Belgium, on the ground that the Bel- fore, Belgian capitalists perpetrated atrocities on the natives of the Congo. He also calls attention to the Civil War barbarities in the United States, such as the conditions at Andersonville Prison. The arguments are not worth answering, ex- cept to say that one wrong never excuses another, especially another infinitely worse. the first and only nation in the world which has officially carried out a wholesale:plan of con- sidered atrocities, sinking hospital ships, bomb- ing hospitals, deporting and enslaving thousands of helpless civilians of both sexes and rewarding commanders who have — women and children. These letters are part of the pro-German propa- ganda, which deceives nobody. = = — WARTIME STRAPHANGERS. Because of the necessity for wartime economies British omnibuses and tram cars are now allowed to admit more passengers than they have seats for. In other words, the straphanger has made his appearance in the local transit system of the country. Under the irresistible pressure of extraordinary conditions a class of unfortunates has been developed over there who, in America, are among the commonest and most familiar fig- ures of normal! peace conditions. In the meantime, under a pressure of much less intensity in this country, the straphanger has become a super- straphanger. If a figure of a certain size should be accepted as representing the total of standing passengers in peace time, a much larger figure would be required to represent the standing pas- sengers of war time. Having learned the secret of milking heavy div- idends from straphanging, will the foreign utili- ties press for the continuance of these unearned profits when the war ends? Or will America go energetically about it to abolish straphanging? Will the utility world continue divided against itself or will it become either an all-straphanging or an all-straphangerless world? ——_ ——_ $4 —_______—_— » DON CANDIDO OF VERA ORUZ. A certain Don Candido Aguilar of Vera Cruz has been called to Mexico City and made Foreign Minister. Just why some of the Mexican press is protesting and declaring that, if precedents are to be given weight, they should be followed to their ultimate conclusion, and that Don Candido should be Secretary of the Treasury and Railroad Director, is hot apparent at the first glance. But it seems that Don Candido is a son-in-law of Don Carranza. se — ae ——— © @@ A FOOD LESSON FROM ITALY. Prof. Panteleoni of the University of Rome warns the United States that putting young farmers or skilled farm laborers into fhe trenches, with the idea that women can take their places in the barnyards and fields, will result in a serjous re- duction of food crops. As to Italy's experience, he says: Of course women have taken the places of men upon the land as far as they have been able, but, per individual, at least ane-third ef- ficiency is lost by this process in Italy. Nothing could be further from accuracy than the be- lief prevalent here and in most other parts of the world that agricultura] labor needs no skill. As a matter of fact only two agencies properly can perform agricultural labor—the * man who knows and the machine devised by the man who knows. 2 If grapes are cut ignorantly one year the vines almost certainly will be ruined for years thereafter and other damage will be done. Women, in Italy or elsewhere, cannot impro- vise expert knowledge in such matters, even under the pressure of the war emergency. The necessity for exact knowledge is even more real with regard to cattle. Women have done all they could, but because of physical weak- ness and lack of eduvated skill) they have failed to keep things wp to standard.. Prof, Panteleon!, will be 35,000,000 metric bun- dredweight. And other crops in proportion. Yet many draft boards in the United States are put- ting young farmers in class one.

HEADQUARTERS AMERICAN FORCES IN -FRANOE. July 4th, 1921. Honorable Emily Brown, Secretary of War, Washington, U. 8. A. I regret to report a sort of rebellious spirit among the ladies of my staff. Yesterday morning at re- velle Colonels Rose Isred, Violet ‘Blue and Carnation Sweet failed to be on hand for roll call. I sent a messenger to ascertain why. The messenger returned with the information that these officers had to have their beauty sleep, and after the morning review two other officers complained of the lack of attention,to them on the part of the men here. Major Tillie Adams said that in a sea of men she had not been able to’ catch a sprat. The chief trouble is that the men dll take to the nurses, the great big babies that they are. I think many of us expected to get an English Duke, a French nobleman or at least an Italian Count, or even a bearer. I would recommend therefore, that Only male nurses be sent to our camps in future; the nurses seem to appeal more to the soldiers than any of our dear suffragistees here, and a suffregette, like any other woman, knows what she wants, but I must admit that we don’t seem to cut any ice in France, that way. Only last night in the dormitory I heard the girls singing a camp song. Here it is: I’ve had all I want of this suffrage stuff, Votes for women, parades and white sashes. On the very next ship with a one-way trip, I’l) quit all these soldierly splashes. Me for my home and Daddy’s old shack, And Jim will make up with me, maybe; So when I get back, I’ll give all my stack, For a husband, a home and baby Of course such conduct is very near treason and the Manual of War prescribes Death at Sunrise; but as our staff officers never get up until 8 a. m., this rule is inoperative. Besides—this manual was com- piled before women’s influence was felt on the battle- field, ie.: on this kind of a battlefield. Here it is only influence, at home it is wae However, I a@opted harsh measures. I all the looking glasses and powder puffs removed for 10 days. This I think will restore military discipline. I have the honor to be, Yours respectfully, MILLIE JAMES. Commander in Chief. P. 8.—I forgot to say that an orderly breught me @ report that our men are short of ammunition at the front. I was just at the fifth chapter of a lovely novel, too, entitled, ‘‘How He Lost Her.’’ Will tell you how it comes out in my next report and see to that ammunition soon. N.

The play, which is of the musical variety, is the work of Elizabeth Marbury, and ia declared to have been written for the tired society woman, as wel) as for her equally wearied husband who is in business. “Love o’ Mike” is the work of Thomas Sydney, Harry B. Smith and Jerome Kern, the last having com- posed the musical score. The chief comedian, Hassell, appears as a for- mer pugilist, now in service as a but- ler, ard led to larceny by the demor- alizing movies. The butler also un- dertakes for a consideration,’ to make a hero of the visiting Lord Michael Kildare, whose name ap- pears in the play’s title. The youth and beauty of the chorus, and the at- tractiveness of the settings and cos- tumes, are emphasized in the show’s advance notices. At the American, one week from tomorrow night, Maude Adams will appear in “A Kiss for Cinderella,”’ which many persons consider the most beautiful and delicately humor- ous of the plays of Sir James M. Barrie. The plot is a mingling of wartime London atmosphere and of the fantastic imaginings of romance- fed cockneydom. In the chief scene, which is Cinderella’s ball, the set- tings of royal luxury are not as they would be in a real court, but as the half-starved little slavey, Miss Thing, imagines them to be. Santiey in “Oh, Boy.” “Oh, Boy,” which has been run- ning for nearly one year at the Prin- cess Theater, New York, and is still there, ‘will be played at the Jeffer- son next Sunday night by the com- pany which presented it in Chicago and which is headed by Joseph Santley and Ivy Sawyer. “Oh, Boy”’ has become known asa musica] comedy super-hit at the pretty ‘little Princess, where it succeeded ‘Very Good, Eddie.” For the following | week, at the Jeffrrson, Robrrt Man- | tll is scheduled in a classic reper- toire. Fritzi Scheff, erstwhile musica! comedy star, will sing grand opera | airs and popular ballads at the Or- pheum Theater this week. George | Nash and a company will present a. sketch, “The Unexpected.”’ A mys- tery act is ftirnished by Milo, after whose name an interrogation point apears on the bills. Aveling , and Lloyd, “Southern gentlemen:” Frankie Heath, in song-stories, and Burdelia Patterson in poses, are other items of the bill.

The great variety of maps furnished and the rapidity of their preparation are entirely novel featuers of this war. Another science which has come to the front of the stage is metal, | ‘lurgy. Of course, this was expected, and both France and England were prepared, in the sense that they had the men and the methods. But many novel problems have arisen and have ' been solved. _ tion ‘with the great substitution of some metal for or- dinary steel, and the preparation of alloys having a light weight. For- tunately, it hag been the practice in all eountries to employ, in connec- steel works, groups of scientific men, chemists and physicists; and the realization of their importance is no new venture | of th war. Physics is a science which covers | many subjects. is one to which in recent years less | and less attention has been paid, owing to the apparent growth in im- | ! Chief of these were the - Of these acoustics | | : portance of other subjects, notably | electricity and temperature measure- | ments. In fact, I know several in- | stitutions—one is the greatest schoo! ‘in England—where acoustics has /| } _ Again, been omitted altogether one-year course in physics. And | now, to a physicist, the most strik- ing feature of this war, so far as science is concerned, is the wide uss | from the! | | i of the phenomena concerned with | |}sound. Yet when one stops to think, | there is nothing in this to cause sur- | prise. One of the needs of a combat- | ant is to detect the presence and po- | sition of one’s enemy; airplanes are very noisy; there jis a sound, and submarine en- gines cannot be made noiseless. sound waves may be emitted from any such source as a horn ora whistle and may be used for signals on a dot and dash system, or use may be made of their echoes. Locating Guns by Acoustics. Here was a wide field at once for the physicists, and both in France and in England we saw the results of their work. Perhaps the most in- teresting of these was the method of locating the position of a gun of large caliber. When a shot is fired from a German gun toward the allies’ line, the observer in the latter hears three sound due to the passage of the shell through the air—this is because the | | ‘DANDERINE” | that of sound waves; velocity of the shell is greater than ’ the second / sound to be heard is the boom of the | gun itself; and the third is that due | to the explosion of the shell. So, if | there are two or more “receiving sta- | stations,’’ at each of which some such apparatus as a simple microphone is _installed, and if each of these is con- | nected by wires to a central station where there is a recording device, each microphone will register the ar- rival of the three sound waves; but, since the receiving stations are at | different distances from the gun, any | one type of waves, for instance, the “boom,’’ will reach them at different instants of time. In order to know the time intervals, all that is neces- sary is to make an extremely accu- rate clock record its indications on the same strip of paper that receives the microphone signals. Then, know- ing the velocity of sound waves, as we do, and also the exact situation 'of the receiving stations and their relative distances, it is a simple mat- ter to work out graphically the posi- tion of the gun. The only uncertain element in the | process is the velocity of the sound waves, because it varies with the 'temperature of the air——fortunately ina known manner; and it is affect- ed by the wind, if this is strong. But | corrections can be made, and the ac- curacy obtained is truly surprising. Calculations by Aerial Pilot.

When this is done, it is found thta the two meth- ods agree so closely that, if on the largest scale maps a gun’s position as determined by one is marked by 'pin——there is not space. a pin, the position as found by the other cannot be marked by a second This means roughly that the location of a gun at a distance of six miles can be de- termined definitely within some 50 feet, which is sufficiently close. The English officer who had charge of the sound observations at the Mes- 'sines fight told me that in one day 63 large German guns were located, and all 63 were destroyed.

All that are re- quired for this purpose are several such posts, and a knowledge of their positions; then simply triangulation methods give the desired result. The only trouble arises from possible un- certainty as to whether all the ob- servers are looking at- the same flash; but due care is taken of this.

He looked like the wreck of the Hes- perus, uniform torn, covered with dirt and flour, and a beautiful black eye, but he was smiling, and 'in his hand he carried the precious can of milk. We asked no questions, but opened the can. Just. as we were going to pour it out Happy butted in and said it should be mixed with water; he ought to know, because his sister back in blighty had a baby, and she always mixed water with its milk. We could not dispute this evidence, so water was demanded. We would not use the water in our water bottles, as it was not fresh enough for our new mate. Happy volunteered to get some from the well, that is, if we would promise not to feed his royal highness until he returned. We prom- ised, because Happy had proved that he was an authority on the feeding of babies. By this time the rest of the section were awake and were crowding around us, asking numerous questions, and admiring our newly-found friend. Sailor Bill took this opportunity to tell of his adventures while in quest of the milk. “T had a:fair wind and the passage was good til I came alongside the Quartermaster’s shack, en the sea got rough. When I got aboard, I could hear the wind blowing through the rigging of the supercargo (Quartermaster’s Sergeant snor- ing), so I was safe. I set my course due north to the ration hold and got my grappling frons on a cask of milk, and came about on my home- ward-bound passage, but something was amiss with my. wheel, because I ran nose on into him, caught him on the rail amidships. Then it was repel boarders, and it started to blow big guns. His first shot put out my starboard light, and I keeled over.

Absolute sover- to consider peace with Germany only after a‘ ( eignty of nations is as incompatible with our So- sialistic pahonoyny as absolute “sovereignty” of the individual. The Socialistic idea of liberty is not based upon a philosophy which can conceive of man as an individual apart from the com- mumity, whether tribe or nation, and living under such conditions of seclusion any but a mere animal existence; her political constitu- tion along the Hnes of democracy and after a corresponding change in the composition of her present rulers.

When I saw my first shell hole in the road not 60 feet away from the camping place, I naturally was impelled to the thought that more high explosives. might be expected to arrive there in the near future. When a man emerged from a dugout to find shell holes that had not been tn that road 30 minutes before, it suggested some obvious cal- culations as to the probable occasions when he might happen to be In a spot where a shell was ‘lalso due to happen at the same moment. Since a shell often struck in the very place where a man had been, why was it not possible for a shell’ to arrive at the same time with a man? ‘ However, everybody knew lots of excellent rea- sons why the danger was remote. ‘For instance, when he saw mighty shell holes everywhere in ithe walls at Vailly, the boys eagerly: explained to each other: “The stone in those French houses is as soft as sand!

Even the empty cart- ridge cases were covered with bushes or dead grass, because a German air- plane observer, spying such a pile, would know at once that a battery must be concealed nearby. But when it came to handling ex- plosives, the men were calmly indif- ferent. At a battery of great 205s at Cuissy, I watched the artillerists move the enormous shells, loaded with high explosives. _ The battery was at the bottom of a declivity; and I saw the men, again and again, roll the shells along the road and then let them slide headlong down _ the 30-foot through-like incline. If a shell happened to stop on its way, a man would simply straddle it and give it a new start. Truly, these shells, full of instant and terrible death, were handled far less cautiously than were the bar- rels of wine. These barrels,. which were almost as plentiful as ammuni- tion, were the objects of the French poilu’s most tender regard. The im- portance of army wine (“Pinard,”’ as it is called) at the French front was one of the first things that.every newly arrived American learned. The Poilu’s Sacred Wine. The laziest poilu could be trans- formed instantly into a whirlwind of energy by a mere threat of. ‘no pinard.’’ The most. ‘objectionable quality of the threat of “prison” wag that it-was synonymous with “no pinard ration.” To fight without pinard? It would have seemed next door to impossibility. In early April was the bloody and tremendous battle for Craonne. As late as mid-August the soldiers still were talking about it—but they were not talking of the fighting on that desperate field. “We had no pin- ard!"”” “We had te drink water!” “One time I went without wine for six days at a stretch!” When they heard that the Ameri- can soldiers did not drink wine the poilus said aghast: ‘“Imposs-eeb!” I entered Paissy one day to find the main street blocked utterly by a iuge mound of stones, where a great shell had smashed fnto the heart of the town.

Thou- sands more must always be ready in reserve. In fact, the reserve supply should be larger today than a year — ago to allow for the more frequent calls made upon it. The augmented destroyer patrol is responsible for this. They have made the subma- rines use up more torpedoes and have caused them to return to their base more freqeuntly for reloading Bight may be said to be the aver- age number of torpedoes carried in one submarine.

It will enable the State as a solid unit to get back of any proposed social legislation such as the children’s code which was conceded to be one of the most complete and model groups of laws for the welfare of Miagsouri children. There is the prob- lem of rural schools, in genera! ppor- ly. housed, taught by poorly paid teachers, improperly related to their communities because the majority of the people take little interest in them and fail to appreciate their possibili- ties. Problems of tremendous im- portance await the organizations. They must reconstruct and remodel the social! life of their communities in many inetances, looking after recrea- tion, education, health and morals. By providing proper recreational] fa- cilities, for example, they may do much toward keeping boys and giris on the farma, a problem that has long bothered the thinking people i of the Stage.” ee . /. . .

HER RISE REMARKABLE Shé Had Small Income Year and Half Ago When Campanini | “Rigoletto,’’ ‘oak soles Engaged Her. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb.. topic of Amelita Galli-Curci’s vocal greatness, nothing has so interested the New York public since the new queen of song captivated her audi- ence last Monday as the extent of her earning powers. On one side may be heard assertions that she re- ceives a bare few hundred dollars a performance, due to the belief of these folks that Cleofonte Campanini drove a bargain contract before his “find” made her American debut at Chicago a year ago last November. Other persons aver with correspond- ing conviction that Galli-Curci makes $5000 every time she sings—a mere matter of a dollar or two for each note that comes from her throat. Each of these groups of individuals is wrong and the story explaining why, is interesting. First of all, Campanini has been most considerate in the execution of his contracts with the prima donna, for there have been several such doc- uments. The first was drawn short- ly before the opening of the Chicago Opera Company’s 1916-17 season, be- ginning a year ago mid-November. It called for Galli-Curci to appear twice in the Chicago Auditorium, and the price was $1000 for both appear- ances, Signed First for $600. But at the end of the rehearsal of which was the opera in which she was to appear first, Cam- panini shared the belief of all pres- ent. If their ears served them ac- curately, she was the greatest of liv- ing coloratura sopranos. ‘The Chi- cago opera general manager, satis- fied that Galli-Curci would dupli- cate in public the impression she had mae at this first rehearsal, went 'to her and signed a contract which contained an option on her further services.. This provided for her sing- ing six additional performances at $600 apiece. But before the prima donna made her debut a cable megsage was re- ceived from Russia stating that. Mme. Kouznecowa, the Chicago company’s regular coloratura soprano, who was due to reach Chicago in December, | 1916, would be unable to fill her en- gagement. Campanini then decided that Mme. Galli-Curcf should take the Russian singer's place; so he ar- arranged the second contract to give her six more appearances at $600 each, making the total number 14. After the furore at her Satur- day afternoon debut in Chicago a rush was made for the Auditorium box office and the tickets for the next announced performance soon were sold out. The same thing hap- pened for her third appearance. Then, in recognition of her com- mercial qualities, and because he felt it the fair thing to do, Campa- | nini voluntarily presented to his star a bonus of $2000. Her operatic earnings for the 1916-17 season, therefore, were $10,200. It had been orally agreed before the season went far, that Mme. Galli-Curci should sign another con} tract extending for four years after | the first, with her second season honorarium $600 a performance. But when the exceptional drawing powers of the soprano continued, Campanini decided that it was just to her to pay her for the first seal son now going on $1000 a night and to guarantee her a minimum of 30 performances, with 40 each year after that. To Get $1300 Next Season. Next season Mme. Gafli-Curci will receive $1300 an appearance, the season after that $1500 and the last season of the existing contract $1800. So, if nothing untoward intervenes, the prima donna will have sung ap- proximately 164 operatic perform- ances in the five years and received therefor $224,200. jv Inasmuch as she is no less. useful as a concert drawing card and her |: contract with Charles L. Wagner and D. F. McSweeney will permit her to sing 20 times every season (as she did last year) there will be 100 such appearances by the spring of 1921. These, with her percent- age concerts in the large cities, will yield her $250,000 more. In a word, Mme. Galli-Curci, tie had a comparatively small income | one and a half years ago, will find herself at the end of the subsequent | five years—-with extra proceeds from her phonograph records of probably $250,000—possessed of a fortune of nearly three-quarters of a million dollars. Not so bad for a woman who found it hard to gain recognition in the greatest opera house “in the world, and whose rise to the pre- miere position among living women singers of the world has been wun- precedented. Noted Blind Woman 80 Years Old. Miss Anna Sattmann, said to be the most widely-known blind per- son in Missouri, celebrated ‘her eightieth birthday yesterday at the Blind Girls’ Home, where she has lived for 11 years. Many of her friends called and she was given ‘a party in the afternoon. Miss Satt- man was one of the first pupils of the Missour! School for the Blind when it was opened in 1361. She was for years a teacher and visitors’ at-- tendant. 2.—Next to the | ' | | | | } | | | “St LOUIS: POST.

At 12:40 a. m. a brief conference between the union officers and offi- telals of the Central Trades ended, jand it was announced that organized labor would back the street car ‘strikers, provided they succeeded in ‘getting the men generally to quit :work this morning. At that time a large number of men who had turned in their cars and had then marched to the labor headquarters, were waiting, and the union officials enrolled them, col- lecting a $1 initiation fee from each. They were then assigned to dif- ferent, car barns to meet the Men ‘coming to work between 4 and 6 a. mi., and to visit the homes of such men as they could reach in the mean- time. Some of the men came from the sheds of the Park and Compton lines at Park and Vandeventer av- enues, and returned there on foot to notify their fellow workers. Demands of Strikers. Others were carried in automobiles, a number of which had gathered about the headquarters, the drivers in some cases carrying the strikers free. The strikers’ demands include an increase in pay from the present scale of 26 to 32 cents an hour, toa scale of 40 to 45 cents; an eight- hour and nine-hour day for dayligh+ and. night men respectively, with . time and one-half for overtime; rec- oOgnition of the union; reinstatement of men who quit recently, and ad- herence to seniority rules. No demand is made for the dis-/. charge of. women conductors, over whom dissatisfaction has been ex- pressed by the men recently; and no objection is made to their employ- ment in future; but it is demanded that all the rules of employment shal] apply to all employes. The men have complained that daylight trips, which should have been given to men longer in service, were given to women. Strike Vote Unanimous.

Accounts of disturbances which appear in Berlin newspapers of Fri- day morning show that they as- sumed extensive character. All parts of Greater Berlin were involved, with the exceptions of Unter den Linden and Schloss-Platz. The latter place, on which the palace is situated, was entirely deserted, as the papers re- mark significantly. The worst disturbances were in the Moabit Dill, where crowds of strikers attempted to overturn street cars,, Police intervened and were resisted by the strikers. There were stormy scenes also in North Berlin, and in WHast_ Berlin youths and girls crowded the streets, climbed on street cars and wrested the controllers from the motormen, or overturned the cars. In the sup- urb of Treptow crowds derailed a number of cars and cut the cables. There also were disturbances of a lively character 4n the southern part of the city. Frequent fights occurred between strikers and employes whoa were remaining at work. The street car service was suspended after noon. Cars which usually carry workmen were stopped by strikers, who severed the cables. -bDisturb- ances continued until evening. Serious rioting on Thursday in WORKERS ARE STILL OUT.

Government Issucs Warning. .- A semi-official statement issued in Berlin Friday says that the ex- cesses committed Thursday caused the Government to issue a severe warning to the population through the chief military commander against disturbances of the peace, which said: “Having now Introduced a more drastic state if siege, I shall not have the population in doubt that I intend to suppress every attempt to disturb peace and order with all means at my disposal.

St. Louis labor union officials last ht commented on the statement made by United Railways officials that the company had increaséd its men’s pay 37 per cent in the last five years. Increases in Building Tradcs. Without disputing this statement, the labor union men said the wages of laborers in the building trades, known as, helpers, had been in- creased 158 per cent in the last five years. Plumbers’ and steamfitters helpers, théy said, now get $4 a day. and hodcarriers $4.50, and all work only a half day on Saturday, and get time and one-half for overtime, and double time for Sunday work. Steve Butler, a representative of the Waiters’ Union, and business agent of the Musicians’ Union, who headed a special committee of the Central Trades in opposition to the United Railways franchise extension bill, said the union men would con- tinue to oppose the franchise bill, whether the attempt to unionize the United Railways lines succeeds or not. Alderman Schwartz, in a discus- sion at a public hearing on the bill, said the labor unions were trying to unionize the United Railways. Butler said he wished to make it clear that the opposition of union men in gen- eral to the franchise bill had no re- lation to the differences between the United Railways Co. and its em- ployes, and that this opposition will STOP.

Employers of labor should use care to avoid practices at this time which are likely to result in tying up important industries and de- laying preparation for war. ‘It is equally important,” he add- ed, ‘‘that labor organizations should, for the time being, avoid strikes, as such demonstrations give encourage- ment to the enemy and discourage our fighting men.” 1900 Strike Lasted Through Summer; Violence Cost 13 Lives.

An American-manned field gun shattered the silence, so close to us that we could feel its breath and have a greater respect for its bite. The proximity of the gun had not even been guessed by any of our party. A yellow stab of flame seemed to burn the mist through which the shell screeched on its way toward Germany. A correspondent who was wearing an oversized pair of hip high rub- ber boots immediately strapped the tops to his belt. “T am taking no chances,” he said. f‘'l almost jumped out of them that time.

Two 20-year-old Americans were hugging a brazier filled with char- | coal in the long, narrow, low ceil- inged shelter which completely tun- neled the road at a depth of 20 feet.

What had been the first flobr of the struc-| ture had been weighted down heavily | with railroad iron and concrete, to form the roof of dugout. The sides of the decrepit | structure bulged outward and were | restrained from bursting by timber props radiating'on all sides like the legs of a centipede. A mule team stood in front of the dugout. “What's that?’ the whispering Lieutenant inquired of a soldier in | the road, as he pointed over the. mules to the battalion headquarters. “What's what?” the Sergeant re- plied, without respectfulness. Indistinctness of night is a great reducer of ranks. In a mist officer and man look alike. “What's that?” repeated Whisper- ing William, in even lower but angri er tones. ‘What's that there?” he re- iterated, pointing at the mules. “Can't you see its mules?” replied the man in an immoderate tone of voice, betra¥ing resentment.

There is good ground for believing that at least three Germans were wounded and possibly others killed. War Crosses for Two Americans. Not many miles from the point at which the raid occurred a hattalion paraded in honor of two:of its mem- bers who were to be decorated with French war crosses. They are Sergt. Joseph Enderling and Private George Ashburn of Clark Range, Tenn. Ashburn was the first American wounded when his regiment entered the trenches for instruction last Oc- tober. French order of the day for gallantry in “Jeading patrols to the enemy’s barbed wire on several occasions and gaining information valuable for fu- ture operations.”’ In pinning the war cross on the breasts of the two men the Colonel of their regiment observed that he and his command were honored by having two of its men thus highly praised by the French army. “A soldier’s place is near the en- emy,” he said, “and only by keep- ing near the enemy are we going to win this war.” Ashburn’s and Enderling’s cita- tions will be recorded in the regi- an ental archives. | /several minutes later in the dugout, ‘his helmet rode on the back of his | head, but his dignity was on straight. | The Major was so giad to sce us ‘that he sent for another bottle of | the murky gray water that comes from a well on one side of a we'l- populated graveyard, not 50 yards ‘from his post. in three years. seen it so quiet (He was with the British from 1914 | and was transferred back to Ameri- can forces with four wounds). “We | have inter-battalion relief on. new companies are taking over the ‘lines. -Some of them are new to ‘the front trenches and I’m going out with you and put them’ up on their ‘toes.

If they see you first we will have wasted a lot of Liberty Bonds and effort trying to make a soldier out of you. Now, remember, watch yourself.” Wading Sometimes Knee Deep. We pushed on, now encountering longer patches of trench, where duck boards were entirely missing and where the wading sometimes was| knee deep. In some places either the pounding of shells or the thawing) out of the ground had pushed in. the revetments, appreciably narrowing the way and making progress more difficult. Arriving at an unmanned firing step, large enough to accom- modate the party, we mounted and took @ first look over the top. Moonlight now was stronger through the mist, which hung in fold over fold over the forbidden land be- tween the opposing battle lines. At intervals nervous machine guns chattered their ghoulish gibberish or tut-tut-ted away chidingly like fir- icky .spinsters.

The opposing lines in the direction of our course were converging and we were approaching the place where they were the closest in the sector. If German listening posts heard the progress of our party through the line, onl) a telephone call back to the artillery was nec- essary to plant a shell among us, as every point on the system is regis- tered. As we silently considered the va- rious eventualities immaterial to the prosecution of the war, but not with- out personal concern, our progress was brought to a sudden standstill. “Huh—hugh—halt!” came a drawn-out command in a husky, throaty stammer, weaker than a whisper, from an undersized, tin- hatted youngster planted in the cen- ter of a trench not 10 feet from us. His left foot was forward and his bayoneted rifle was held ready for a thrust. One Sentry on the Alert. “Huh—hu—huh, halt!” came the nervous whispering command again, » although we had been motionless since the first whisper. We. heard a click as the safety catch on the man’s rifle lock was thrown off and the weapon made ready to discharge. The Major was watching the nervous hand that rest- ed none too steadily on the trigger stop. He stepped to one side, but the uzle of the gun followed him. uh- huh- huh, halt I tuh-tuh-tell you. ” This time the whisper vibrated with nervous tension and there was no mistaking the state of mind of the sentry. “Take it easy,” replied the Major with attempted calm. “I’m waiting for you to chalNenge mé. Don't get excited. This is the commanding officer.” " “What's the countersign?” came from the voice ina hard strain. “Troy,”’ the Major said and the word seemed to bring worlds of reassur- ance to the rifleman who sighed with relief, but forgot to move his rifle until the Major said; “Wil) you please take that gun off me and put the safety back in?” The nervotus sentry moved the gun six inches to the right and the correspondents, all standing behind the Major, looked into something trenching into a gaping gulley, al- most without sides, and waist deep in water. A working detail was endeav- oring to repair the damage. In par- ties of two we left: the trench and crossed an open space on the level. that showed as big as a street car The 40 steps we covered across that tunnel. One scribe jumped into the! forbidden ground were like stolen rear of the Major. One wearing shoes and puttees plunged knee deep into water out of range, and a cor- | respondent with rubber boots started to go over the top. a trigger, but no report followed and three hearts resumed their beating. “There is no occasion to get excit- ed,” said the Major to the young so!l- dier in a fatherly tone. ‘I’m giad to see that you are wide awake and on the job. Don’t feel any fear for your job, and just remember, with that gun and bayonet in yofir hands you are better than any man who turns that trench corner or crosses out there. You've got the advantage of him, and besides that, you’re a bet- ter man than he is.”’ Praise Pleases Sentry. The sentry, now smiling, saluted the Major as the latter led the party quietly around the trench corner and into a sag leading directly out into “No Man’s Land.” Twice the trench passed under broad belts of barbed wires which we were cautioned to avoid with our helmets, because any sound was un- desired, for obvious reasons. After several minutes of this cau- tious advance we reached a small listening post that marked the clos- est point in the*sector to the Ger- man line. Several silent sentries were crouching on the edge of: the pit. and screened it in front and above. We remained silent while the Ma- jor, in the lowest whispers, spoke with a Corporal and learned that except for two or re occasions when the watchers ‘thought they heard a sound near our wire the night had been calm. . We departed as silently as we came. The German line, from a dis- tance of 40 yards, looked no different from its appearance at a greater dis- tance, but this was closer and carried with it a tingle of proximity.

FOOD ADMINISTRATION FIXES PROFITS FOR FLOUR DEALERS Any Margins in Exess of Those Sug- gested Will Be Cause for Investigation. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 (By A. P.). — A scale of profits for wholesale and retail dealers in wheat flour was suggested by the Food Administra- tion tonight,.- with the warning that any margins charged in excess of those proposed would be considered cause for investigation. The scale follows: Wholesalers’ gross maximum profit on original mill packages not to ex- ceed 80 cents to $1.20 a barrel, de- pending on the character of service performed; on _ less than original mill packages not. to exceed 1 cent a pound. Dealers were cautioned also against charging more than pre-war profits on wheat flour and against asking more than a reasonable mar- gin on wheat flour substitutes. “Substitutes for wheat flour,’ the Food Administration announcement said, “should not be sold at more than a reasonable advance over ac- tual purchase price of the particular goods sold, without regard to mar- ket or replacement value.”’ a : Beginning Monday-« i The February Clearance of SPianos and Players idee in hh oe ee oe oe | call Real Rall Beal ot 1 a 7s "4 i pp, 5 | THs great money- wi event will continue throughout the week, offer- ing remarkable buying opportunities on high-grade Players and Pianos.

A program to dispose of the war cabinet bill has been completed, and if it ever gets to the floor of the Sen- ate there will be a majority to send it to the naval affairs committee for consideration, or to defeat it. The military affairs committee of the Senate has not taken up the war cabinet bill for reconsideration and it may not do so for a week or ten days. It is said to be evenly divided on the measure. Senator Chamber- lain has accepted an invitation to make a speech in New York Monday night and will leave here early Mon- day to be on hand at 7 o'clock, when | the banquet at. which be will speak begins. Senators Hitchcock. and Wausworth gave formal notice that they would speak on the war. cabinet bill and they can do that regardless of where the measure is pending. Administration spokesmen plan to reply tothem. The director of muni- tions bill, to which the President also Objects, has been reported to the Senate and is on the calendar. The Senate military affairs com- mittee today arranged to recall Sec- retary Baker Tuesday for cross- examination regarding his statement before the committee last Monday on achievements of the War. Depart- ment. Howard Coffin, chairman of the Aircraft Board, testifying before the committee today, urged a centralized war control. Coffin told the committee that the productive capacity of the country could not be developed fully unless Government purchases were put into the hands of a central agency with full powers. A definite program of placing war orders, he said, has not been formed, «~nd industry is suffer- ing. chasing, Coffin said, must be insti- tuted immediately or else general confusion would result by reason of the fact that the various Govern- ment departments are not proceed- ing in co-operating with each other. An agency built along the lines of a Ministry of Munitions could con- vert existing plants into war manu- facturing plants without upsetting industry, Coffin said, while con- tinued indiscriminate placing of or- ders by the various departments threatened to bring a state of chaos.

After calling a lawyer a “sucker” be taken playfully and said that at- torneys who appear in his court must learn to take a joke. The lawyer was Homer Hall, for- mer assistant United States District Attorney, who appeared as counsel for Frederick William Armin Auff- rath, a violinist in the Symphony Or- chestra. Auffrath was attempting to show that he was born in Germany Dec. 24, 1895 instead of Dec. 24, 1896, as was stated in the applica- tion of his father,\ August Auffrath, for naturalizatfon. e father was naturalized Sept. 7, , and if the son was born on the d he claims, he was then under 21 years old and automatically became a citizen. Judge Dyer remarked that there had been too many efforts to estab- lish American citizenship on “these flimsy grounds.” Hall protested and declared that: he considered the proofs offered by Auffrath so con- vincing that he took the case without a fee. It was then that Judge Dyer called Hall a sucker for taking the case without a fee. The Judge then ordered the proofs translated into English and submit- ted to him fo> examination.

Appetizing Di splays Chief Attraction at ENS Patriotic Food Show. Coliseum Visitors Crowd Around Pancake . Counters and Pay Little Heed to Wash- ing Machines, Soap and Brooms. Appetizing displays food in /'many forms and from . numerous sources proved to be the most invit- , ing feature of the patriotic food | show, which was formally opened | ‘last night at the Coliseum. Such | household machinery as ironing | of brooms, having little to do with food, | ‘had equally little attraction for the | throngs of men and women who gathered admiringly around the | booths where there were large flaky | butter, not to mention scores of at- | tractive substitutes for the common, | everyday articles of food. | Large crowds attended both the} | afternoon and evening sessions. The, informal opening was held in the afternoon and was especially for the | benefit of school children who were. At the opening last night brief ad- dresses were made by Mrs. George Gellhorn of the Women’s Central Committee on Food Conservation, the organization under ‘whose auspices the show is being given; F-. | B. Mumford of the University of Mis- | | souri, State Food Administrator, and | Dr. W. F. Gephart, chairman of the. St. Louis Food Committee. | Dr. Gephart read a telegram from Federal Food Administrator Hoover indorsing the show. Miss Jane Ad- dams of Chicago, who was to have represented the Federal Food Ad- ministration, was not presenf™on ac- count of being ill at her home. The show will continue until next |. Sunday night. The usual sessions will be held this afternoon and eve- ning, accompanied by special sacred programs. At 3 o’clock the afte-- noon program will open, with Bishop Tuttle and Rabbi Leon Harrison as speakers. The program tonight will be under the direction of the civic organizations with James R. Dunn as chairman. Exhibit booths occupy the entire arena of the Coliseum. The variety of exhibits is wide. In one booth a negress baked pancakes which were covered with syrup and passed out. to women. The dairy companies of St. Louis | maintain a booth where tiny cups of | ice cream were served. Other dairy | products are exhibited. Other exhibits include war bread, | cakes made with.egg and butter sub-. stitutes, fruits, salads, vegetables and | | boards, washing machines, soap and | many other things. An extra feature is the Pageant, of Food Conservation, given twice last night and scheduled for twice each evening during the show. It illustrates the struggle between want | | cakes, light biscuits, firm molds of | ang plenty.

Stark Nurseries of Ne- osho and Stark City, Mo., are en- Nurseries and Orchards Co. of Lou- |isiana, Mo. Suit to enjoin the fermer company was filed ‘in the District Court at Joplin in September, 1916, summer. The principal defendant is William P. Starck, who is a brother of the Starck brothers who own the con- cern in Louisiana. y In 1912, William S. Stark with- drew from the Stark Bros.’ Nurse- ries, following a disagreement, and formed his own company. The orig- inal company alleged that.the new concern, by unfair advertising, led the public to believe that it was the same as the Louisiana company. The opinion also orders the de- fendant company to make an ac- counting for the four years prior to the time the suit was brought in 1916. The defendant company also is prohibited from using the name “Stark City” on any of its advertis- e ing matter or letterheads. Andrew B.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.—‘Per- fectly absurd,” was hort Senator Stone, chairman of the Senate For- eign Relations Committee’ today characterized the report that he was concerned in an organization to fo- ment strikes in Germany. | “It is absolutely without founda- | tion,”’ he said. ‘“‘The reports might | have been circulated in Germany to head off the unrest and strikes now going on, Over there the United States is supposed to have money to burn and it might be that the Gov- ernment would circulate such _ re- ports.”’ That circulation in the enemy countries of President Wilson’s ad- dress also may have contributed to the rumors was suggested by the Senator. “T learned only last night;” he said, “that the Russian Bolsheviki are themselves circulating the Presi- dent’s addresses, not only in Russia, | but in Poland, Germany and Aus- |} tria. The Bolsheviki leaders have had the President’s addresses trans- | lated into German, Polish, Czech and Slavic and circulated them among the peoples which Germany domi- nates. Their purpose, I understand, is to stir up sentiment so as to force Germany at Brest-Litovsk to enter into the peace the Bolsheviki desire. “But as far any strike propagan- da, as far as I personally am _ con-'| cerned, and from all I know, the re-| ports are ridiculous.’’ $18.00 Guaranteed Felt Mattress » | 45-lbs weIsnt~-Gonwine layer felt in fancy art i ticks—roll edge— sale price no skeen $19.75 Golden Oak Chifforobes LARGE WARDROBE SIDE, hat box and $13.75 five drawers; sale price $25.00 ODD CHIFFONIERS; Colonial 4 plate mirrors; oak, mahogany and walnut; sale price $24 DKESSERS; golden oak an —e French bevel mirror; sale price $12.50 Special Felt "68.9 Fancy art ticks; French roll edge}; sale price $10.00 Oak Extension Tables 42-inch square tops; cxtends to 6 feet; $6 95 sanie price $15.00 Pedestal Extension Tables Solid oak ‘Table; golden finish; round top; extends to @ feet; heavy fancy pedestal; sale $10.00 Serving Tables + Golden and famed oak finish; large silver ae ae pe ASO ar $5.75 $25.00 Golden Oak Buffets Colonial design; heavy plate mirrors; snic price $30.00 Buffets; Colonial designs; golden and fumed onk finish; sale price $42.00 Buffets; Colonial design; golden £3 175 oak finish; 60 inches long; heavy plate 1.75 mirror backs sale price $75.00 Buffets, Colonial design; extra large 31 mas- sive; quarter-sawed oak; golden and fumed finish; sale price. cast brass trimmings, 7 large 1-in. square filler rods; sale price. $15.00 IRON BEDS, 2-in. continuous posts, Vernis Martin finish, heavy, °4-in. fillers, full and three-quarter size; sale price. . $29.50 STEEL BEDS, 3-in. posts, heavy 6-in. brass cap mount- ings, golden oak finish, 1-in. top rails and fillers; sale price . $10.00 COMBINATION FELT MATTRESS, extra thick and heavy, beautiful art ticking, roll edge; sale,price $8.00 BED SPRINGS, extra strong tempered springs, reinforced coils; all steel; sale price ‘Rugs & Floor Coverings at Special Reductions REMNANTS and short lengths of Carpets; 1% to 1% yards long; splendid for small 9c rugs; each Se CORK LINOLEUM; cut from full rolls; per 9c yard. $1.25 INLAID LANOLEUM;: color through to the back; as- 95c sorted patterns; per yard $12 WOOL AND FIBER RUGS; size 9x12 feet; assorted patterns; sale price . $7.50 IMPORTED JAPANESE ORI- ENTAL RUGS; size 36372 inches; assorted patterns; sale ; $38.00 Of Seas hed; sale price RS; vee hy size te at price $25.00" LIBRARY TABLES, large size, oval hogany and oak gp massive Colonial pedestal bane; sale 32.75 DINING CHAIRS; golden and fum seats; Spanish leather upholstery; CEG DUO is « 5.6 0 6 x 5 oe el os Os se : $20.00 China Closets Golden Oak fintsh; bent ginas sides; sale eg Fy TUT EL iN } , | f ’ : pUeetayair dey sao —— $125 4-Piece QUEEN ANNE BEDROOM SUITE In brown, mahogany and American walnut.

DETROIT, Feb: 2 (By A. P.).— Twenty-five thousand factory work- ers were idle here today as a result of the fuel shortage, and it was an- nounced that many other factories would have to close unless fuel is ob- tained by Monday night.

For more than a week thousands | of Detroit homes have been without coal. Gas and electricity have been their only fuel. The city Fuel Ada- ministrator announced that he would seize coal wherever it was available, if such a course is necessary to main- | tain a supply of gas. | P er In the selling of Spectacles and Eves lagen by eons iclans themselves doctors and others.

SUNDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 3, 1918. ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH a ITOMOBILE -_- —— SPIRIT OF PONTIAC WILL WATCH OVER LOCAL AUTO SHOW Space for Exhibits at Big Event; Which Opens Feb. 18, Will Be Allotted Tuesday Night. In going over the Exhibit Building, formerly the Southern Hotel, to lay out space for the St. Louis Automo- bile Show, Feb, 1 to 23, the show management found under the dust a tablet on one of the walls, erected there in 1900 by the St. Louls Chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution. This great bronze tablet had in its center a bas-relief of an Indian head, and the inscription says: “Near this spot, is buried, by his friend, Acting Governor St. Anges, Pontiac, Chief of the Ottawas, killed at Cahokia, [1]. April, 1769. This tablet erected by the St. Louis Chap- ter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, 1900." 3 The man, who in the days of its former glory as a famous hostelry, wired ahead for a room at the old Southern Hotel in 8t. Louis, would hardly recognize the place now. It is being transformed into a perma- nent exposition building. Its name has been changed to the “Exhibit Building,” and it will enter upon its new career with the opening of the Automobile Show, Monday, Feb. 18. On the first floor, doors which were never entered by guests of the for- mer hotel are being widened and the rooms made available for exhibits. There were baggage and storage rooms. On the second floor, many partitions are being torn out and two rooms made into one single room with no front, suitable for automobile ex- hibits. Found Blue Beard Chamber. On the first floor the Show Com- mittee of the St, Louis Automobile Manufacturers’ and Dealers’ Associa- ‘tion has found a room which is as mysterious as a Blue Beard chamber. Zt has no openings, not even small windows, on to the first floor. It can only be reached from the third floor, down narrow winding stairs. The room is about 60 by 40 feet in dimensions. No explanation can be secured as to why a blind room like this "was built'in the very center of the great building. Attractive window cards in strik- ing and unusual colors will be dis- played Monday all over St. Louis to advertise the Automobile Show.~ The big 24-sheet posters have been on the billboards for a week. Space Drawings Tuesday. The drawing of space for automo- bile ‘displays will take place at a meeting of the St. Louis Automobile Manvfacturra and Dealers’ Associa- tion Tuesday night, at the City Club. The distribution of the space, will, as far as possible, be by lot. The Spaces are to be classified as to their sizes, and these drawn for by dealers in cars of certain specified wheel bases, A letter was sent Friday from the office of the show manager, 105 Bouth Ninth street, to every dealer in automobiles and accessories in the St Louis trade territory, inviting them to the show. Three tickets of admission were enclosed. It is ex- pected that the attendance of dealers this year will be.larger than ever before in the history of a St. Louls show. . Owing to the fact that several of the local dealers find themselves un- able to secure cars of the new mod- els in time for the show, there will de sufficient space to meet the econ- omical needs of the exhibitors. they comply with - bd tol } ra - $F” aba 7 yr : » s 1

The Kissel “Sil- ver Special,’’ one of the few new mod- els brought out:at the national shows this year, will be exhibited here. The car, which is unique both in design and finish, was a center of at- traction at Chicago. In addition to this there will be a polished chassis and several specially painted cars for the salesroom display that week. Due to the fact that no space in the show is available for trucks, Newman has arranged to hold an individual commercial car display at the sales- room. This will be the first time the complete Kissel] truck line has been shown in 8t. Louis. It includes five different models, ranging in size from the l1-ton flyer to the 6-ton dread- nought. Some of the truck chassis will be shown with bodies. J. H.. Quinlan, who recently joined the Newman organization as sales- manager, accompanied Newman to Chicago to inspect the new models to be shown here. aciniitinabinn “REILLY” TO SPEAK HERE. On the invitation of the Motor Ac- cessory Trade Association of St. | Louis and as the joint guest of that | body and of the St. Louis Automobile Manufacturers’ & Dealers’ Associa- tion Ray W. Sherman, one of the editors .of Motor World, who is widely known in automobile circles as the “Reilly” of Motor World will be in St. Louls February 19, and will ad- dress at a luncheon the local trade and the dealers from the St. Louis territory who are visiting the auto show. The dinner will be at the Planter’g Hotel at noon. a An Osgood Service Station. A service station for Osgood lens has been established by the Auto De- vices Co., 3212 Locust street, for the benefit of their owners. Many motor- ists. find upon going to the city hall to have their headlights tested, that their lamps are out of focus or that the lamp brackets are bent so as to prevent their passing the city inspection. Osgod owners who have experienced this trouble can have the trouble corrected at the service sta- tion so that the city will certify their headlights.

The application of large scale pro- ductive methods which brought the output of Grant Sixes from a few hundred to 20,000 cars a vear in four | make Grant | trucks as important to make Grant. trucks as Grant Six cars are among. years, is expected to popularly priced automobiles. “When we started out four years ago to manufacture the first Six ever sold under $1000,” says J. C. Barcus, local distributor of the Grant, “we were pioneers. Nobody had ever tried to build a Six at anywhere near the price we placed upon the Grant Six. ‘But with Grant trucks we are not pioneering. We had intended to come in with a line of trucks de- signed by ourselves and had already started work on a new big factory adjoining the Grant Six plant. But we had a chance to take over the Deneen Motor Co., makers of Denmo trucks, and by so doing we obtained an established and successful line, which was a big advantage. “Grant trucks have-electric light- ing and starting, internal gear rear axles, and equipmemt, which is 100 per cent complete, They are be- ing built in 1800 pounds, two and a half and two-ton capacity and we shall shortly ad@& a three-ton truck. | | were ADVANCE IS FORCED IN CHEVROLET PRICE An advance of $50 in the price of | the touring car and of $40.in that | of the roadsters, effective March 1, | is announced by the manufacturers | of the Chevrolet. The new price of the former, in St. Louis ,will be $710, and of the roadster $685. To both is to be added the war tax. Relative to these advances, Wil. ligm King, sales manager for the Banrdle oMtors Co., distributer of the Chevrolet for the St. Louis ter- ritory, stated that it was made neces- sary by the fact that, the production having leaped to an aggregate above 200,000 annually, the manufacturers unable to keep up with the/| rapidly rising material and labor | costs. “Tam not surprised at the raise,” King said. “We have known all | along that the Chevrolet was the, highest value in motor cars. While the increase lifts @ie value to only $710, we can demonstrate to anyone interested that, compared with any other car, the intrinsic value,of the Chevrolet is $751. When to this is added the fact tht the car actually costs, as shown by checked records from 102 St. Loults owners, less than two cents a mile to operate, we believe that if the price were to be) $750 it would still be the geratest au- | pe “In my career as a salesman I have ST.

The body for this number is of the very highest class, manufactured by the Hayes Manufac- turing Co., and is carefully finished, trimmed in gray cloth with whip- cord bindings, has dome light, re- movable windows, curtains, etc. The actual cost of the body {fs $475 which made the price of the car in St. Louls, including wah tax, $1112.05. “Discriminating car users at once recognized the new sedan as the Breatest value offered in closed cars, with the result that Eastern Chevro- VESPER IS PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL DEALERS Fred W. Vesper of St. Louis. was elected president of the National Au- tomobide Dealers Association at a meeting held in Chicago Friday. Ves- per is president of the Vesper Buick Atuomobile Co, of St. Louis, wholesale distributer of the Buick line. At the first meeting at which the associa- tion was organized nine months ago, Vesper .wag elected vice president. His elevation to the presidency nat- urally followed a large amount of ac- tive work for the association, in- cluded in Which was a visit to Wash- ington for a conférence with the au- thorities on the possible curtailment of the automobile industry. Acording to Vesper, it is entjrely | possible that the office of the secre- tary, now in Detroit, may be moved to St. Loulg shortly and if possible the permanent headquarters of the association secured for this city. Alfred M. Reeves of @he National | Automobile Chamber of Commerce, the manufacturers, who was at the Chicago meeting, promised to address the St. Louis trade Thursday, Feb. 14. Other officers elected at Chicago | were John H. McAlmon, Boston, and Prince Wells of Louisville, vice pres- idents, and Thomas J. Hay, Chicago, treasurer. : TO THE ARMY AND NAVY An investigation madé through the automobile industry shows that the automobile dealers and manufactur- ers of St. Louis have furnished the United States army 447 soldiers and sailors. This heavy drain was well divided, except in one instance. The Dorris Motor Car Co. furnished 158, due to the fact that in the early stages the army was in great need of truck operators and mechanics. The MOTORISTS GIVEN TEN - DAYS TO BUY. LENSES The new State headlight law, which became effective Feb. }, is to be rig- idiy enforced after the ten days of grace given motorists in which to pro- vide lenses for their headlights ac- cording to Director of Street and Sewers Talbert. The main object of the law, which is. to completely eliminate glaring headlights from the streets and high- ways of the State, is accomplished by making certain definite require- ments for automobile headlights. The lens makers have anticipated these requirements with the result that to- day there are severar makes of ef- ficient lenses on the market. No provision was made in the law for approving any certain type of lens as complying with the reéequire- ménts of the law, but the city, under the direction of Chief of Police and the Street Department, has arranged a free testing station at the west side of the city hall, where several hundred cars can be inspected every day. A devise has been made which correctly measures the light above the danger line. If the lamp is sat- isfactory a small official seal is placed upon the lens and shellacked of the city approval. Should the headlight not pass, the fault is explained to the owner who can rectify it. In the case of the. require a smaller candle-power lamp or the proper focusing.

ST.LOUIS POSi-UiSPAICH “sepdather MORNING, FEBRUARY: 3, 1918,» | The Oftener You Put Down John Barleycorn, the Harder. He Is to Cong | John L.49 Years Old When He Won His Greatest Battle, Beating Old Man Barleycorn - J Other Famous Victories in Gareer of Former World’s Champion Who Died Yesterday Include Those Over Kilrain, Ryan and About 100 Other Lesser Opponents. By John E. Wray. of the late John L. Sullivan, whose death startled fight followers yester- day, came after his ring career had closed. About a decade ago John L. pulled the relics of himself together, and went in for a finish bout with Old John Barleycorn, the indomitable conqueror of so many champions. S eres to say the hardest battle and the greatest victory in the career John L. won. What iron nerve it must have taken for Sullivan, who had at times in his career all but reached the sot stage, not all can appreciate. It is sufficient to know that it meant the complete reversal of 49 years of life habits. How far Sullivan had fal- len only the old-timers who remem- ber the stories printed of his esca- pades can tell. in waves. He soaked up ali the dis- tillation of corn he could buy with the proceeds of the many “benefits” that ‘pitying admirers provided for hi. He became surly, ferocious, dangerous at times, and by many was looked upon and pointed out as the horrible example of what the brutal, bestial game of fighting leads to. But John lL. fought himself, won and “came back.” In the last few vears of his life he not only fought Barleycorn himself, but he helped others to whip this enemy of the world, in speech and writing. At the close, he had earned enough to live his life quie"ly and be depen dent on none, dying a respected cit!- men, instead of a drink-crazed ma- niac. That was Sullivan’s REAL cham- plonship battle. The Idol a i il eile UT it is not for this most mem- orable conquest that mighty John L. is endeared to the old-timer. That fight is not to bea found in the guide book which re- cords some of the classics of pugi- lism—real struggles of the mind and hand, the sort that search out the stuff of which real physical men are made. Sullivan, in the blood and iron school of bare knuckle days, meds- ured up to this test better than any other, in the minds of the contempo- rary “sporting element” which put a premium on gameness, stamina, pun- ishing power and the ability to turn boastful threats into quick knock- outs of ail who opposed him. Sullivan had many ring battles tn his career, which began in 1878, when the Boston-born son of an Irishman was .20 years of age. At this time Sullivan was all that the breeders of human animals could have desired of any pugilist. His 196 pounds of upstanding bone and sinew was animated by a courage that was not to be daunted. Noth- ing disconcerted him, he feared noth- ing. One opponent was as alike: to another as two peas. “Sure I’ll fight him,” he'd rumble in that deep basso; and fight he would. Further- more, hé generally won quickly and by the knockout. For, although Sullivan arose and grew in times of the London prize ring combats, when fights were won not by the well-directed punch, but by long rounds of mauling, cross- buttocking, | back-heeling, kicking and even biting, when the officials were not too*squeamish, he — had found the knack of the good-night wallop.

Back to the Cave Man. OHN was the cave man type, and é to this day that is the one that rings the bull’s-eye of popular appre- ciation, If you don’t believe it, ask why Benny Leonard is more popular than Freddie Welsh. Sullivan’s first four years of fight- ing won him such popularity that in 1882, at the age of 24, he was matched with Paddy Ryan, world’s title claimant. Paddy was , some claimant and there were those’ who disputed his right to the title. To this day men can be found who say that Sullivan was never the legiti- mate title holder, because Ryan, through conquering whom he won his laurels, never had any right to consider himself champion. Sulli- van’s later victories over Mitchell and Kilrain, however, smashed the doubting Thomases and left John L. practically undisputed world’s title holder. It. was in his battles with Ryan, Mitchell, Kilrain and Corbett that the gamut of Sullivan’s career was run. Many victories, interspersed between the first and last of the above combats were minor chords in the long note of championship tri- umph. His feud with Paddy Ryan was a famous one. They fought three times Sullivan winning the first and third second being stopped by the police. Sullivan’s early fights were all of te bare-knuckle stripe. In fact, he had been in the ring only four years —he began in 1878%when he con- tested for the asay championship for the first time against Paddy Ryan at Mississippi City, Miss., in This fight had been driven by the Governor of the State, and Mississippi City was selected as the | c..npromise scene of the battle. It was near the State line and fairly | convenient to the sports who, in those days, didn’t mind such incon- veniences as being shunted about the country three or four days, watch- ing battles in rain or snow, and risk- ing arrest by the police. Sullivan Hailed as World’s Greatest When He Stopped 100 Foes on Tour HE, conditions of the fight were $5000 side wager; bare knuck-. Tes; London prize ring rules. Under these conditions a knock down ended ‘a round, and fiz its frequently ran.into the scores of rounds in du- ration. The Ryan fight, however, proved a. disappointment inasmuch as the ponderous right of John L. flattened the title holder in nine rounds, - In the first Ryan encounter Sul- ivan, though he ,was the shorter man of the twa, ‘had the better of the contest from start to finish, ac- cording to reports printed the fo)- lowing day. Ryan was knocked down with a left*hand blow, ending the first round; he went down bleeding in the’ second; in the third he was again knocked down and appeared in bad condition when he arose; in the fourth he was thrown heavily; in the fifth Sullivan-was thrown and arose .covered with blood from Ryan; in the succeeding two rounds Ryan was.put down. while in the eighth he went down in a heap— all through. Sullivan won the cham- pionship by knocking Ryan out with a blow of his OPEN hand! . * - Sullivan claimed the world’s championship following his victory over Ryan, although a terrific up- roar followed, One which has not been satisfactorily settled to~ the minds of everybody to this day. It appears that Ryan's heritage to the title was not without a bar sinister and there are persons who believe What Sullivan never was entitled to +e honors so universally claimed for him today. But Sullivan’s managers launched him on a career as champion and, in fact, staged a nt the; following ey year in which J - the country all sections to send forth a man who could stand before him Sor on rounds. A prize 0 the hardy man whod ish this, “L. went through HIS tour, as it turned out, exalt- ed John L. beyond hope of re- crimination and fixed him firmly on the title throne. For, as it happened, Sullivan flattened. no less than 50 opponents during this tour. When he completed it he was considered invincible, and the many with hardi- hood enough to stand before him were looked upon as weak in tho second story and game for the un- dertaker. Sullivan’s second bout with Ryan, which was held in New York on Jan. 19, 1885, was stopped by the police aftér one round. However, this is not the most interesting sidelight connected with this fight. The real feature was the “‘brawl’’ between the pair in Sullivan's room at the Cole- man House. This happened when the receipts were being divided. Ryan was sore and said to Sulli- van “that he was sorry the fight did } not go to a finish.’’ Sullivan retali- ated with ‘“‘Well, so am I,"’ After this Ryan announced that he was Sulivan’s master, and that despite the fact that he was among friends, he wanted to teach him (Sullivan) a lesson. He told John L. to put up his hand While Sullivan yas in the act of doing this, Ryan’ sent his right to Sulivan’s nose, staggering him. 8ul- livan tried a left, but missed, and Ryan hit him again. Here friends stepped in and prevented a rough- and-tumble battle. This ‘brawl’ led up to a third fight’ between the pair, which was staged in San Francisco on Nov. 13, 1886, in which Sullivan was the vic- tor by a mnockout in _three rounds. Sullivan Disepipolats Friends. HE next truly important bout for Sullivan was fought in Chan- tilly, France, on Mareh 10, 1888, against Charley Mitchell, the En- glish champion, under bare-knuckle conditions, This was called a draw 'after 39 rounds of boxing, although |van answered, } However, here Donovan, seeing the Suillieen Gis Corbett After 12 Years: Resting at His Farm oP eae x et pees ener: et vr >. @ iD was taken. whom he adopted.

Sullivan in 11888 and his next was with Jake Kilrain, at Richburg, Marion Coun- ty, Miss., a place 103 miles from New Orleans, on July 8, 1889. *This bout was won by Sullivan after 75 rounds of fighting, when at the start of the seventy-sixth session, Mike Donovan, Kilrain’s second, threw the sponge in the ring to save his protege from further punishment. Just prior to the start of the con- test, Kilrain walked to corner’and offered to ‘bet $1000 that he would win. This was and the money placed ? the . hands | of Referee Fitzpatrick. As early as the third round, Kil- rain’ hit Sullivan low, and this con- tinued throughout, but despite’ Sulli- van’s claims of fou! they were not allowed by the referee, In many of the later: rounds, when he saw he had no chance of winning, Kilrain went down without receiving u blow. : , Before the start of the seventy- sixth round, Charley Mitchell, one of Klilrain's seconds, went to Sullivan's eorner and asked John L. would give Kilrain a present.

At the fight 800 tickets were reported to have been sold for $15 each, $100. $62,000 the men fought for. The re- ceipts, after expenses were deduct- ed, went 60 per cent to the victor and 40 to the loser.

None of them redounded to his credit, as he was savage and dan- gerous when aroused while under the influence. It was at this time that Corbett’s star crosséd Sullivan’s orbit in what proved a fatal conjunction—for John L. Corbett, a young bank clerk in San Francisco, had met Sullivan in in 1891. Sulli- van had been lapping the grape and the red eye for two’ undisturbed years. He was high in flesh and sluggish as a canal boat. Corbett made a monkey of the world’s great- est champion in their three-round event. Corbett’s showing attracted so much notice that immediate talk of Of course, where Corbett had followers Sullivan had 1000.

The constitution at present spe- cifically provides that no . double- headers shall be played on the first visit of a team to any city. This rule plies up double-headers in midsum- mer. According to Secretary Heydler, 68 of the 97 double heacers played in the National League last season were played during August. , Another amendment will be offered to fix a minimum waiver price of $1500 on any player who is purchased from a minor league or who is a free agent when signed. Heretofore the president of the league has been asked to fix the waiver price on such a player when rival clubs were un- able to agree upon a reasonable price.

Installation of a telephone switcli- beard is about completed, - and fin- ‘ishing touches to an improved wir- ing and lighting system will be given early this week. In advance of formal announce- ment, there has been a steady flow of inquiries as to the scope and ' character of the enterprise, it was stated yesterday by the company’s officials at headquarters, suite 1953 | Railway Exchange Building. These ‘inquiries come from every line of in- dustry and manufacturing to which the permanent exhibit idea appeals, and many also have come from mer- cantile interests, along with some ‘from parties who are chiefly con- cerned with fruits of the soil...

The opin- ion has been frequently expressed that much confusion and loss of ef- | ficiency has been caused by follow- | ‘ing this course. ‘Most industrial or technical ex- perts, above the class of employes, exercise their abilities through their own office organization, the building of which to the stage of efficiency is often the result of years of labor. When such persons enlist in the reg- prived of the use of their own organ- izations and are forced to build new know nothing, or to do the unac- loss of time and efficiency to the service.

There might be a service oath for all en- | listed, a uniform or, at least, a dis- of rank. As men are alike in desiring personal distinction, Congress might see fit to establish a civil or indus- trial Order of Merit to be awarded for extraordinary service. ° “An industrial organization might perhaps be more quickly formed if; started from the ground upwards’ that is, each community might, un- der governmental direction, under- take an organization according to the nature of the industries pecullar to itself, officered, by their natural leaders, and enrolling its labor in the rank and file, If the whole non- military part of the populatiun werc enrolled in the public service with a visible sign or token to denote their patriotic devotion, it might tend to bring about the ‘community spirit’ which the Germans say we lack.” | Noble company, from the Pettee sis- will be the cue for the erection on /Chestnut street of other buildings for concerns of this and kindred ‘been located at 1117 Chestnut street says.

A DAILY READER.—In Australia there- grows a species of acacia, commonly called the “angry tree.” It reaches the height of 80 ft. after a rapid growth, and in outward ap- pearance somewhat resembles a gi- gantic century plant. One of these curious plants wag brought from Austria and set out at Virginia, Ne- vada, where it has been seen by many persons. When the sun sets the leaves fold up and the tender twigs coil tightly, like a little pig’s tail. If the shoots are handled the leaves rustle and move-uneasily for | a time, If this queer plant is re- | mé¥ed from one pot to another it || seems angry, and the leaves stand | out in all directions like quills on | @ porcupine. A most pungent and sickening odor, said to resemble.that given off by rattlesnakes when an- noyed, fills the air, and it is only after an hour or so that the leaves fold to the natural way. * * * The mill stone discarded by a mill at South Dover, N. Y., many years ago hag been a subject of surmise for years, and, seemingly, none of the surmises were fulfilled. After the stone had been discarded some time a seedling popped its head through the eye, and as the seedling grew into a tree people began to watch and prophesy as to what would hap- “pen when it at last filled the stone. Some insisted that it would burst the stone just as a wedge of wood will split a slab, and others believed i the tree would simply expand above its stone collar and reach its nat- ural.. proportions. What actually happened was the tree lifted the stone from the ground and carried it suspended. * © © A smoking tree is one of the natural wonders of Ono, Japan. Strange to say, it smokeg only in the evening, just after sunset, and the smoke issues from the top of the trunk. * * ® || son, who was very fond of the tree, |ij}-executed 2 deed | within a radius of 8 | is on In Georgia, at Athens, is a tree that owns itself.

This deed file at Athens, and is the only one of its kind in the world. The tree is of the live oak veriety, and has a magnificent spread of branches. It throws a dense and uniform shade and is very beauti- ful. * * * The Brazil nut tree does not begin to bear until it is 650 yrs. old. * * © History and literature tell of the famoug talking oak of Do- nono, notable in classic Greece. The yew under which Gray wrote the “Elegy of a Country Churchyard” at Stoke-Pogis, near London, is visited yearly as a splendid example of the tree from which history tells us the English yeoman made his bow in the good old days of Robin Hood and the archers. The great elm at Cambridge, under which Washington stood as he took for- mal command of the Continental army ts revered and protected by Massachusetts, At Hartford the Charter Oak, which preserved the written guarantee of the liberties of the Connecticut Colony, has long been famous in the ‘history of the country.

It was named after its chief | engineer, Capt. James B. Eads. It |! consists of 3 spans, the central be- | ing 620 ft. in the clear, and the | side spans are 602 ft. each. Capt. Bads designed the piers, the arched ribs and the method finally adopted for closing them. Charles Pfeifer developed the mathematical theory of the arch, which was finally venet. The method of erection was devised by Col. Henry Flad, who gave to the whole work continued study and supervision. The bridge was begun in 1867 and finished in 1874. -The cost of the bridge was | about $6,500,000. James Blackman I came to St. Louis from Hillsboro in || 1857 and opened a general merchan- dige store. A year later he and 4 | others obtained a charter for the) building of what is now known as ||| the Eads Bridge. The engineering | problem was then considered 50 || great that the idea practically was || abandoned until the close of the | 4 war, when they succeeded in inter- esting James B. Eads in the project.

ST ION POST. SPATE CHAMPION HEN LAD 320 EGGS IN A YEAR “Molly Wellington’ California Bird Hatched in 1914 Made Record as a Pullet. The poultry editor of the Post- Dispatch attended the Madison Square Garden poultry show during the New Year season. The unques- tion center of attention was ‘Molly Wellington,” a light Brahma hen, owned by Mrs. Lee Wellington ‘of Los Angeles. “Molly” was hatched in the spring of 1914. In her first year after beginning to lay she pro- duced 325 eggs. This. record was duly substantiated, by affidavits made and exhibited in printed form *by Mrs. Wellington. This not an “of- ficial” record in the senseé in which records are made under the supervl- sion of the Government, or of agri- cultural colleges and experiment sta- tions. But Mrs. Wellington’s per- sonal] reputation is such that the rec- ord is not questioned. No so-called official laying record | has equaled this one. It would bea most remarkable record fpr a layer of any breed or class, but doubly so because this bird belongs to the Asi- atic class, and our largest. breed, though the largest of our domestic fowls, the light Brahmas often in- cluded some very good layers. Had Narrow Escape From Rats. For some reason they are poor sitters. Many of them never become broody. This is true of Molly Wel- lington. She is a large hen of fair Brahma type. but is not an exhibition bird. She had a narrow escape as a chick. She was one of a hatch of 11 and rats got 10 of them, Molly being preserved to fame. Cecil Shepard of Berea, O., exhib- ited Anconas at the Garden show. He keeps careful records of many of his hens and asserted he has a layer which laid 331 eggs in 365 days. This bird was not on exhibition at the Garden, however. Anconas belong to the Mediterranean class, have the Same shape as Leghorns, and are black and white in color in the pre- ferred proportion of five to one. They are fine layers, undoubtedly, and their popularity is increasing. The value of such hens as these two is very great. Molly, by the way, did not lay an egg during the _ entire show. This is not to be wondéred at after her transcontinental trip. There was great interest in hom- ing pigeans at America’s premier show, due to the war. Uncle Sam, himself, made a display which added still further to the interest. This dis- play was in charge of Lieut. William B. Gray Jr. of the U. 8S. Signal Serv- ice Corps. A placard placed over the birds read: ‘‘Military pigeons; they gave the lives of our boys in the trenches.” The plumage of these messenger birds, blue and gray, very appropriately represented our reunit- ed nation. There is a pigeon loft in every important military camp. Homers are being shipped from this at the rate of about 5000 a Prizes won by the ‘“soldier”’ army, month. pigeons at the show pen prize and a first on singles. Barred Rocks Popular. There was an astonishingly high quality in the barred Plymouth Rocks at the Garden show. Their barring, and their bright, snappy col- ors attracted the attention of every admirer of fine poultry. The quintet of winning cockerels all placed in a row were the finest the writer ever saw. They were all of splendid shape, good size, and had the nar- row, medium dark shade of barring, now so much desired. The colors ‘were bright and distinct, and the barring even from the head to end of tail. I was even more ietubested in the winning pullets for the reuson that some of them looked as though they had been bred from cockerel mat- ings. Whether this was true I could not learn. Splendid females are be- ing produced with increasing fre- quency from such matings, and some fanciers are predicting that in a few! years we shall have single mated ex- hibition barred Rocks in both sexes. Iam not sanguine about this, but let us hope it may come. I recall judging barred Rocks in a Middle West show five years ago, and after considerable hesitancy gave first prize to a dark but splendidly barred pullet, which I ‘g@uspected was from a cockerel mat- ing. I learned afterwards that this was true. Later on this bird won either second or third place in Chi- cago. Barred Rocks would be even more popular than they are if standard eolored birds of both sexes could be produced from the same mating. This may come eventually through the cockerel-mating lines. Double matings are necessary now, although an occasional female from a cock- érel-mated pen shows exhibition i quality.

We do not hear so much nowadays about the old dispute between the advocates of the fancy and utility branches of poultry raising. In fact, most such disputes have been absurd. There is a constantly growing convic- tion that the best fowls from a fancy point of view. may just as well be the best from a utility point of view. This may not apply to some of the vari- eties that are khown as the purely ornamental varieties. _These have their place, too. I myself have never cared to raise purely ornamental fowls, but I like to see them ‘and I am glad to have others raise them. The American Standard of Perfec- tion is the final authority on the form, color, size and other character- istics of the so-called exhibition fowl, but the Standard descriptions are de- scriptions of superior utility fowls. The Standard describes practically all country to France, for the use of our | varieties as long or | breasts. ‘nondescript, so-called utility fowl of |bred for a long period of time in their | included first | no special breeding that is small and | inclined to be full, broad it is the with fact is that in body, The long, narrow and that has no merit for the | table or in the laying pem The ef-| | adapted for farm life, and yet as well fort of the makers of the Standard has been to describe the useful as well as the beautiful fowl. That beauty and utility conflict is absurd. The breeders of pure-bred fowls, the so-called fanciers, have done most in this country to ad- vance the utility qualities of fowls. In England a few years ago there was a utility craze worse than any we have had in America. I mean a craze which sought to belittle the beautiful show type of fowl. In En- gland they carried cross-breeding to| considerable length. Now Prof. Ed- ward Brown, a recent English visitor to America, reports that the English breeders have learned better and are trying to combine beauty and utility in the same fowls. Why not? I well recall that I once showed a pullet which won first prize in Chi- cago. As this was my first big show I was quite puffed up. It turned out the following season that this pullet was the best layer I had. Though an Asiatic she never became broody. She laid 19 eggs in 19 days, which, for an Asiatic, is doing pretty well. The fact that she had fine shape and beautiful plumage did not prevent her from being a great layer.” And why should it? Teaching of Poultry Outlined in Bulletin To aid teachers of poultry hus- bandry in secondary schools in pre- senting. poultry raising opportunities to their classes, a specialist in the States Relations Service of the Unit- ed States Department of Agriculture has prepared a teachers’ guide on the raising of ducks, geese and turkeys. Suggestions are made as to methods of presenting these subjects both in the classroom and in the laboratory. and study outlines calculated to help the teacher and student to correjgte the home work with the work at school are given. The bulletin known as States Relations Service Document 57, will be mailed free on request, while the supply lasts, to instructors or administrators of high schoo! ag- riculture.

UTILITY AND BEAUTY Old Disputes Between Fanciers. Line Bred Fowls Have Wants. i BUTTERCUPS NOTED FOR LAVING ABILITY Little of the Wildness of Leg- horns. By William T. Long, Elsberry, Mo. Probably the first Buttercups that ‘came to America were brought by when about to! for Capt. Dawes, who sail from the island of Sicily Amcricaspurchased a coop of the fuwls to be eaten on the trip across. The birds, however, proved to be such wonderful layers of large white eggs that the Captain decided to bring them to America with him, The most. distinctive characteristic of the Buttercup is the shape of the comb, which differs in type from all others, being formed like the flower | buttercup, hence the name. The plumage of the male is a bright golden red, with tail feathers black; while the female is of a golden buff color, quite thickly spangled with black lacing. The standard weight of the male is six pounds:and the female five pounds. The Buttercup, like many of the. new breeds, are not of a made-up or mongrel origin, but have been line native land, and so breed very true)! to type. They are most active foragers, well fitted for close confinement, having none of the wildness which pertains to the Leghorn class, but on the con- trary are the tamest and gentlest of all fowls, and become such pets as to soon endear themselves to their owners. Buttercups are absolutely non-sit- ters, and_almost non-flyers. Their whole thought and force seems to be!|# jist eggs, eggs—spring, summer, fall and winter, while they consume less food per number of eggs than any known fowl. Cash registers, furnaces and office fixtures, used but useful, are bought and sold through Post-Dispatch Ledgers Will Tell if Flock Pays Its Way |.. Every poultry keeper should make an inventory of his stock, houses and equipment on the first of the year. During the year he should keep at least two records, a single entry cred- it and debit ledger and a monthly pen record. Items such as eggs sold, breeding stock sold and market poultry sold should be written in the credit col- umn. The debit side should include feed purchased, stock purchased, nec- essary repuirs to equipment or any miscellaneous expenditures. Such a system will enable the poultryman to tell at a glance whether the flock is paying for itself or is being kept at a loss. At the end of the year a secy ond'inventory may de taken. If the inventory decreases dufing the year the amount should be added to the debit column. If it increases the sum should be added to the credit side. By dividing the year’s profit by the original inventory the percent profit for the year may be obtained. A monthly pen record should show the production for each day in the month. G. W Hervey of the Univer- sity of Missouri College of Agricul- ture suggested that it might also in- elude columns for feed, mortality, broodiness and one for miscellaneous entries. At the end of each month the different columns may be totaled A record of this sort will show the general efficiency of the flock and will be a basis for improved manage- ment, besides creating a greater in- terest in the flock Itself.

WHAT ‘A DOCTOR THINKS OF seme pungent observations by Dr. Richard C. iin out of his experience of 25 years as a practicing physician—Why some men are failures and how the doctors themselves have helped the growth of Chris- tian Science, osteopathy and chiropractics — Rewards are not finan- cial, nor need the physician expect praise or the consciousness that he has saved lives eze ROBABLY no man has been more in faver in recent years of breaking down time-honored traditions of the medical profession, especially in the matters of taking the public into its confidence and overturning the old notions concern- ing publicity, than Dr. Richard C. Cabot, himself a practicing physician of 25 years’ standing. In books and in lectures he has advocated those things which he believed would elevate the practitioner in the mind of the lay public and has had no hesitancy in attdt®- ing the trenches of medical ethics. Dr. Cabot is known as a pungent and entertaining writer, and he has lost neither of these in his latest book, “Training and Rewards of the Physician” (J. B. Lippincott Company). While the book is primarily a guide for young men who contemplate becoming doc- tors, there are some chapters which contain sound ad- vice ‘for the practitioner, and among the most inter- esting observations are those upon the relations of the physician to what he terms “unorthodor” cults, such as Christian Science, osteopathy and chiropractics. . Some of the more striking passages from the book fol- low: OCTORS. often acquire pacifist tricks. They become peace-at-any-price men in relation to their patients. Of course, this is obviously wrong. There are times when one must resist a patient's will. A father wants his child’s scarlet fever hushed up, not placarded in red on the house door by the Board of Health. He may be angry enough to discharge a physician who insists on Going his duty in protection of the public. With such wrath one cannot make peace honorably. But it is amazing hew rarely such antagonism need be aroused if the doctor has himself well in hand and refuses to fight without good rea- son. Many men fail because they do not keep-up with medical progress. To- day probably the medical reading of the majority of physicians in this country consists in skimming very hurriedly the titles or contents of one medical journal a week. Next to this, the failure to attend district medical meetings, state or national medical meetings is probably the. commonest cause of falling behind in the march of medical prog- ress. Twice I have known men to come near to failure be- cause they chose the wrong place to settle in. Occa- sionally a man gets into medicine who doesn’t really like the job. Finally, I have known a few men to fail because they could not get on with their fellow prac- titioners and were always in hot water over some trifle. There is I remember once asking an old practitioner, just be- fore I entered practice, how anyone ever got any pa- tients. His answer has been widely verified in what 1 have seen of medical success. He said: “One gets more patients by being faithful to the few one has.” If you show real devotion, people pass the word along to others and you get known and sought after. This is a physician’s best as- Well as his most graceful method of advertising. Homeopathy bids fair today to die out within a short time because it is becoming increasingly obvious that the differences between homeopathy and the old school practice of medicine are so slight as to be negligible. Homeopathy flourished only so long as it wags perse- cuted. I think that the homeopaths have suffered more from the competition of the osteopaths than from any other single source. Today the osteopath, in turn, is begin- ning to suffer by competition with the chiropracter, whose education, bemg even briefer and more deficient than that of the osteopath, has cost him less and whose prices are therefore often lower. We are often asked why we do not add the perfectly real relief which the osteopathic treatment gives to our armamentarium of remedies. Why should we not advise people as to hygiene, give them medicine and surgery, where those are needed, and also manipulate PAGE TWO thanks is due. SUNDAY MAGAZINE-— S7T ocror their sore bodies, as the osteopaths do? simple answer is, I think, that most doctors do not like that sort of work. If they had to make a living with their muscles primarily, they would choose some other occupation. The irregular healers of various cults have their vogue also because they generally unite in condemning ‘surgical operations. A patient is told by a doctor that he must have a surgical operation performed. He naturally dreads it and seeks relief elsewhere. The Chinese herb doctor, the Christian Scientist, the osteo- path all agree in telling him that-he needs no opera- tion. This is an immense relief, especially as in many cases no disaster follows disregard of the surgeon’s warnings. As long as surgeons are as reckless as they now are in, advising operations, the irregular prac- titioner will continue not only to flourish but to do a certain public service in encouraging people to disre gard the surgeon’s false advice. Among the rewards which the doctor cannot expect is wealth. Few doctors have ever grown rich from their medical fees and if I read the signs of the times rightly the number of doctors with incomes above $5000 a year is going to be smaller in the future than in the past. Another reward which the budding doctor must learn not to expect is gratitude. He also gets abuse where it and left unthanked when he does. Sometimes a doctor can get his reward in the aware- ness that he has foiled disease and cured his patient. But if he is honest with himself he will not often be able to say: “I cured him. I pulled him through.” Ags a matter of fact, as I look *back on 25 vears of med- no longer any need to go abroad for general medical improvement after graduation. ical work, I can remember but two patients whose lives I believe I saved. When we read medical history and see how often our grandfathers’ medicines must have how often the patient must (so far as we . done harm, can see) have recovered in spite of treatment rather than because of treatment, we cannot but wonder how much of our present up-to-date therapeutics will appear useless or worse than useless in the wise hind- sight of our grandchildren. I was talking once with a physician who was telling me how he had lost practice and money in the treat- ment of babies. He said: “I do not see one baby for every 10 I used to see.” . I said: ‘Well, why is that?” “It’s like this,” he said. “A lady called me up the other day and told me her baby had a little trouble in his bowels. ‘I have stopped all food,’ said she, There are times when one must resist a patient’s wll. He is thanked when he doesn’ t deserve The As long as surgeons are as reckless as chew are now in ad- vising operations, the irregular practitioner will continue to flourish. ‘given water in plenty and one-tenth grain of calomel every hour for five doses. Is there anything else I ought to do for the baby?’ I said no, not just now. ‘Well,’ she said, ‘if the baby is not better soon I shall want you to come and see him.’ But the baby was bet- ter, and I was never called. I had taught the mother all she knew and most that I knew about babies.” That things should be done quietly, decently and without advertising is the time-honored custom of or- ganized medicine. The old adage that “a little knowl- edge is a dangerous thing’ has impressed itself so deeply upon the mind of the medical profession that it has prevented doctors, until very recently, from taking ‘ the public into their confidence or attempting to put into the sick man’s hands the knowledge necessary for him to take his part in the fight against disease. A change in our beliefs upon this matter is now react- ing favorably, I think, not only upon the health of the community, but upon the development of the private - practitioner. Until comparatively recent times it was considered unethical for a physician to talk for publication. It appeared that he could do so only to advance his own interest; in other words, as a means of advertising him- self. It is probably true that every physician who now talks for publication on matters of public health does advertise himself and benefit his own pocket to a cer- tain extent. But the crying need of general education about health and disease has made us now willing to ‘condone or even to encourage the appearance of med- ’ {cal men In the newspapers, provided they never dis- cuss their own private ideas or proficiencies, never sug- gest, directly or indirectly, that the reader should pat- ronize the writer, but confine themselves wholly to bringing home to the reader what he needs to know about his own health and about diseases which may attack him. A considerable part of the doc- tor’s task with tired, discouraged or bewildered patients is to cheer them up. But with most of us the stock of cheering words and acts is very limited. Yet the part of encouragement is one capable of much cultiavtion and one does not need to be absolutely original in the means employed with each sufferer. “Face the very worst that can happen,” J have often said to discouraged patients, “and you will find it far less disastrous than your glimpsing apprehensions. about it. Turn straight towards what you dread as we turn a horse’s head toward the object he is shying away from, and you will find it can no longer scare you.” I have often seen men grossly ignorant of the tech- nique of medicine and quite unconscientious in their study of their patient’s diseases, acquire a wide pop- ularity amd a large income because of their power to please, to flatter and cajole their patients. Every phy- siclan has abundant need of all the social skil] that he can acquire and honestly apply. But it must be con- fessed that social sill is often an accomplishment suf- ficient to make up for any degree of medical incompe- tence on the technical side of the profession. I like to believe that there is less room for this type of chi- canery than there was 25 years ago and that the avail- able space is constantly dwindling as people get more general knowledge of the body in health and disease. There is no longer any need to go abroad for gen- eral medical improvement after graduation. American post-graduate instruction has now caught up and passed that for which Americans formerly went to Germany, to Paris or te London. The majority of Americans whe have gone to Europe in recent years for generaf medical improvement have, I think, wasted their time. «a good many have told me so. To witness, without protest, such inhuman and brutal treatment of patients*as is common in German clinics is not, I believe, innocuous to post graduates. . LOUIS POST-DISPATCH-~FEBRUARY 3, 1918.

One is the most interesting in- vention of the war for land operations and the other for the combat at sea. Printed accounts of naval conflicts with submarines have contained many references in the last few months to the depth bomb, whose construction and use, how- ever, appear not to be widely understood. Simply stated, the bomb is a charge of high explosive, so ar- ranged as to go off when it has sunk in the water to a certain depth. The detonation, as the scientists call it, is caused by water pressure upon-an automatic at- tachment, which can be set so that a bomb will ex- plode at any desired depth. A charge of about 250 to 350 pounds of trinitroto- luol, or the same as is contained in the modern tor- pedo, is carried by the type of bomb most in use and its effectiveness is due to the fact that it does not have to hit a submarine to destroy it. Its destructive- ness is based upon the incompressibility of water, so that the shock of detonating a mass of high explo- - Sive under water is felt immediately in all directions. Of course, the effect will diminish in proportion to the distance from the bomb, and it is also easily ap- parent that the expanding gases caused by the explo- picn will seek the line of least resistance. If a ship be torpedoed, the line of least resistance will be the hollow interior of the ship, the incompres- sible water forming a wall in all other directions. But when a-mine or depth bomb is detonated the line of least resistance is upward, and the gases cut their way quickly to the surface, carrying a feuntain-like mass of water into the air. If the detonation is at a considerable depth, the resistance to the escape. of the gases at the surface is increased, as is the shock transmitted through the water in all directions. If the gases fail to get to the surface and blow it up, they will crush any un- dersea craft that may be nearby. The destructiveness of the bomb against the submarine depends upon the depth at which it is detonated and the distance of the submarine from the explosion. A bomb deto- nated below a submarine will trans- ‘mit a greater shock to it than if exploded above, and as to distance, Hudson Maxim has said that 6500 pounds of trinitrotoluol exploded deep under water, within 125 feet of a deeply submerged submarine, will entirely destroy it. Smaller charges, of course, have to be exploded pro- portionately closer to the submarine to insure its destruction. Because of these facts considerable 8) _widen its use. 4: Mir escape $208.

If by chance a mer- chant or patrol vessel should attract the bomb, the bomb would attach itself to the side of the vessel. The bomb is fitted with powerful mul- tipolar electro magnets all over its outer shell. These are not normally excited, but as soon as a submarine comes within a few feet of it, the presence of her iron mass causes a sensitive mag- netic needle relay to close the battery circuit. through the powerful electro magnet nearest to the submarine’s hull. If the submarine is close to the depth bomb, the bomb will attach itself to the submarine, unknown to the crew. Use is also made of a com- pressed-air tank and two discharge jets, one at either end, the air jet farthest from the submarine being actuated by a magnetic valve opened by the mag- netic relay (2). The depth bomb will be propelled to- ward the submarine by the escaping air, even though the bomb is several yards away. The bomb is harmless un- til the submarine dives to fire a torpedo at its prey. At Showing how a depth ‘bomb, dropped from an airplane or a destroyer, and exploding some distance away from the submarine, at the same time exerts sufficient force to destroy it. ing a submarine is to make a dash for it at full speed. Estimating the depth the U-boat is likely to reach before it can be attacked, and the distance for- ward it is apt to be carried, the destroyer will en- deavor to drop a bomb so that it either will hit the submarine or be detonated below it within crushing distance. The depth bomb probably is more feared by the men on the U-boats than any other single weapon in use against them, and because of its proven effectiveness consistent efforts are being made to improve it and Some of the nesy ideas which are be- ing tried out are offerings of/F. R. Lewis of .New York, inventor of several war devices, among which is an improved range finder for bomb dropping from airplanes. The general arrangement of the Lewis electro magnetic bomb is shown in the section- gl drawing accompanying this article. The bomb is designed to be harmless to vessels on the surface, but to destroy any submarine which comes within the radius of its powerful electro magnets. The bomb can be planted in waters infested with enemy submarines with the aid of patrol boats or hydroairplanes.

The charge is heavy enough to blow in a plate or two or cause the plates to be blown in to such’ an extent that the submarine would sink in a few minutes. There is provided an airtight chamber around all electrical parts and the explosive chamber, as_ the bomb, lying in the water, would be affected by the different temperatures, which cause sweating (con- densation), and this moisture would sooner or later cause the bomb to become dead and consequently harm- less. A special time switch is provided which keeps all circuits open until after a predetermined time period, thus enabling the ship’s crew to cast a bomb overboard and get away from the spot before it becomes active. These depth bomps can be cheaply made and could be planted by the hundreds in the zones picked out for this purpose, at night (or by seaplanes in the daytime) and as the bomb sinks to A4-depth of 15 feet, there is nothing to show the enemy where danger lies. The hy- drostatic valve is controlled by a tension spring and setscrew indicator which can be adjusted for the bomb to explode at a predetermined depth of 30 to 100 feet, The chief means now employed to fight the sub- marine at open sea are the de- stroyer, with its guns and depth bombs, and airplanes, carrying bombs. Scientists and naval men seem to have largely given up the idea of a single invention which will eliminate the U-boat, but they appear to be well agreed that if any one thing would rid the sens of subma- rines in short order it would be a sound detector of the right sort. This detector would have to be of sufft- cient range to enable the craft in search of it to find and follow a sub- marine when it submerged. Then it would only be a matter of waiting a little time for the enemy craft to come up, when it could be pounced upon and destroyed; for, odd as it may seem, the undersea boat is és- sentially a surface craft. It spends 80 per cent of its time on top of the water and can remain submerged only a comparatively short while. wojferproor skill is required to make a success- __ ful depth bomb attack.

This tale of valor by the fighting sea force of Uncle Sam should be told in all its details, but the naval censor remains adamant to every plea to let all the facts be known, together with the name of the ship, its commander and crew. The fact that the incident occurred on July 4, Xmer- ican Independence Day, makes it the more significant and thrilling. ' About that time there was a rumor of German U-boats in the vicinity of the Azores, which are a lit- tle more than one-half way between principal Ameri- can ports and British and French ports. While the American supply ship was lying in the harbor of Ponta del Gada a big, modern German sub- marine entered and without ceremony began shelling the city. The people of the city were asleep. It is quite possible the U-boat commander did not discern in the early morning light the big war-gray supply ship moored to one of the docks. In any event, the inhabitants were suddenly awak- ened by tke booming of guns. The American com- mander, whose name is withheld from publication, al- though it has been blazoned forth in gvery publication in the Azores and doubtless throughout the mother country of Portugal, called his crew to quarters, warped his ship around and replied to the fire of the U-boat, driving it off after a lively engagement, thus saving the city. | One report has it that the guns on the supply ship were outranged by those of the submarine, but this is said not to have been the case. The vessel is one of the same type which caused a tremendous sensation when first seen in a French harbor with a great cargo of supplies for Gen. Pershing’s forces. No other navy has anything like these big supply ships. The commander of the American vessel holds an auxiliary commission in the navy. This is the rule with ships of this type. He is a fighting man and has a gun crew the equal of any, but not an officer of the regular naval personnel. The U-boat commander sneaked into Ponta .del Gada to surprise the town and do all possible damage before the inadequate short-range and more or less antiquated land batteries there could be brought into play. He doubtless got the surprise of the war in the package which was promptly handed him by the American com- mander. There were some casualties on shore, but none on the American vessel. The people of the city attend- ed vespers the evening before, as was their custom, re- tired to their homes in peace and quiet, only to be awakened in the early hours of the morning by the brutal German commander and his guns. Only the presence of the American vessel saved the city from at least partial destruction, since the sub- marine lay beyond range of the shore batteries, which were helpless against it. That the American master Meager facts about carefully censored éngagement, which occurred July 4, last, have just become known — Giant U-Boat crept into harbor of Ponta del Gada in the Azores, in the early morning, and began shell- ing the city, but was driven away by the fire from Uncle Sam’s naval vessel $3 : $: ss was the hero of the day is stating it mildly.

He served on the school ship Newport, from which he graduated in 1906. Some day his name will be published, but the rule of the naval censor is against such publication at present. Recently the Navy Department authorized the pub- lication of the name of the American destroyer—the Fanning—which captured a big U-boat and started to tow it to port when it suddenly sank. The name of the commander of the Fanning, and even the picture of the officers and crew, was issued. That should serve as a release for such a story as the Ponta del Gada affair, but it happens that the authorization to publish the name of the Fanning was secured with the greatest difficulty, even by authorities within the navy. The following is the translation of an article pub- lished by a Portuguese newspaper, A Republica of St. Michael’s, of July 29: “There is now leaving our port the American war vessel which, in the dawn of the 4th of this month, saved the city of Ponta del Gada, its inhabitants and its possessions. “It saved Ponta del Gada because, if it had not been there, even the most heroic attempt to defend the city made on that morning by the military force of Mae de Deus would have proved insufficient, not only by the position of the enemy in attacking, but also because the cannon of that place were inferior to those of the submarine and so, under such conditions, could not attack to advantage. “Thus Ponta del Gada, on the 4th of July, without this American ship in port, might have been reduced to a stone pile, according to the phrase of one of its officials. For this, it rests with its corporation and with the municipal government to present to the cap- tain of the American vessel a sincere expression of their gratitude and to promote a public subscription for buying some object of art to offer him in the name of the citizens of Ponta del Gada. “The dawn of the 4th of July! Who can ever for- get it. Who can ever forget the awakening horror of a sleeping city that at vespers of the night before went peacefully to its repose without premonition of the death and destruction ahead! “The unhappy Thomasia, who, in her poor village, fled to the street full of fear and terror—little did she know at vespers the night before that at daybreak of the following morning the splinters of a German shell would fracture her skull, causing instantaneous death! “It is the body of this girl, found in her village, amid general sorrow and horror and surprise, whom none here shall ever forget, that at the same time should signify a vehement protest against this work ot German barbarism! ‘Much is due this man of war, whose duty com- prised such vigilance that after the bombardment it redoubled its service to Ponta del Gada. Her launches patrolled the sea every night. Her captain visited the forts and brought together on board his ship the day following the bombardment the maritime and military authorities. ~ “We must not forget; the frequent visits he made to the wounded in the hospital and to the scene of the disaster to examine the destruction caused by the German shells, as did al) the officers and sailors, giv- ing money in Faja de Cima to the people who had suf- fered, especially to the old owners of the house on which the grenade fell and who miraculously escaped death. | “An officer of the vessel knew that in the Rua do Beco there lived a poor old woman—a centenarian. So this man of the sea and of a foreign nation, hav- ing devised that charity should have no frontiers, al- ways went to visit her when he~came ashore, and gave orders to a nearby establishment that she should be furnished with bread and milk every day, in addition to the alms of money given when he came to see her. “It is because of all these facts that we see this beautiful steamer depart with sadness. and, at the same time, with affection. “Go! Sail the seas proudly to the land of liberty and Washington; and when you arrive there, tell your compatriots that you carry with you the gratitude of a whole people. And, if some day you return in com- pany with your comrades, may you bring brariches of olive as messengers of peace!” | No German U-boats have been reported in the vicin- ity of the Azores since this incident occurred. It can be said without violating confidence or betraying any military secret that any U-boat commander who comes snooping around that vicinity will meet with the hot- test reception of his life.

SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATGH—FEBRUARY 3,1918. Sador James W. Gerard that the celebrated Zabern affair, with its threat to the prestige of the military caste, determined them to embark their country on the present war. Mr. Gerard, in his book, “My Four Years in Ger- many,’ which was publisheg in serial form by the Post-Dispatch, has given a vivid picture of the junkers, though perhaps one rather too flattering. He come pares their virtues and vices to those of the ancient Spartans, “There is no leisure class among the junkers,” he says. * “They are all wor'‘ers. patriotic, honest and devoted to the Fmperor and the fatherland If it is possible that government by one class is to be suffered, then the Prussian junkers have proved. themselves more fit for rule than any other class in all history. “Their virtues are Spartan, their minds narrow but incorruptible, and their bravery and patriotism un- doubted. * * * The junkers will fight hard to keep their privileges, and the throne will fight hard for the junkers, because they are the ‘greatest supporters of the Hohenzollerns.” 2° The writer might have added that they are com- pletely unscrupulous in the means used for forwarding the interests of their class, and that if they have helped make Germany great it was only incidental to enhanc- ing their own power. The influence of the junkers is, in the first place, founded upon their wealth. They are the great land owners in Prussia, and rule over their tenants with the despotism of feudal lords. In Mr. Gerard’s vivid phrase, they “are the owners of the German army,” The officer class in army and navy is taken almost solely from among the nobles, and this class is at once the fetish and the oppression of Germany. In addi- tion, the junkers control all the roads to social, pro- fessional and political preferment. They have evolved the completest system of domination ever created by man. Military, financial, social and professiorfal suc- cess may be obtained only by their favor. ‘ Perhaps their greatest weapon has been their complete control of education in the German empire. From the age of 4 the German boy is trained up into docility and fear of his superiors in caste. “If a girl has a choice of three équally attractive young men,” writes Mr. Gerard, ‘‘one a doctor, earning $10,000 a year; one a manufacturer, earning the same amount, and one an army officer with a ‘von’ before his name and $2000 a year, there is no hesitation on her part. She ta‘es the noble and the army officer.” Poultney Bigelow, the American writer, who as a boy was a playmate of Emperor William and who had opporstunities of studying the junkers at close range, relates in his boox, “Prussian Memories,” a conversa- tion he had with the wife of Prof. Helmholtz, one of the glorious names of German science. She said in angry tones: ‘For social purposes I would rather have the young- est Lieutenant in thé Berlin garrison as husband than (Continued on Page 14.) PAGE “¥1¥B

Herr von Inster had brought a note from her in the morning, preparing my mind, and added his persuasions to hers. Not that I wanted persuading—I thought it a heavenly idea, and didn’t even mind Helena, because I felt that in a big house there’d be more room for her to stare at me in. And Herr von Inster is going to stay an- other week, taking his summer leave now instead of later, and he says he will see me safe to Berlin when I go next Saturday. : | So we had the happiest morning wandering about the forest, he driving and letting the horses go as slowly as they liked while we talked, and after our sandwiches he took me back to the Bornsteds, and I showed Frau Bornsted the Grafin’s letter. If it hadn’t been a Koseritz taking me away she would have been dreadfully offended at my wanting to go when only half my fortnight was over, but it was like a royal command to her, and she looked at me with greatly increased interest-as the object of these high attentions. She had been inclined to Warn me against Herr von Inster as a person removed by birth from my sphere—I suppose that’s because I play the violin—and also against drives in forests gen- erally if the parties were both unmarried; and she had been extraordinarily dignified when I laughed, and had told me it was all very well for me to laugh, being only an ignorant junges Madchen, but she doubt- ed whether my mother would laugh; and she watched our departure for our picnic very stiffly and unsmiling- ly from the porch. But after reading the Grafin’s let- ter I was treated more nearly as an equal, and she became all interest and co-operation. She helped me pack, while Herr von Inster- who has a great gift for quiet patience, waited downstairs; and she told me how fortunate I was to be going to spend some days with Komtesse Helena, from whom I could learn, she said, what the real perfect junges Madchen was like; and by the time the Grafin herself drove up in her little carriage with the pretty white ponies, she was so much melted and stirred by a house guest of hers being singled out for such an honor that she put her - arm around my neck when I said good-by, and whis- ‘pered that though it wasn’t really fit for a junges Madchen to hear, she must tell me, as she probably wouldn’t see me again, that she hoped shortly after Christmas to enrich the world by yet one more Ger- man. I laughed and kissed her. ’ “It is no laughing matter,” eyes. _ “No,” I said, suddenly solemn, too, remembering how Agatha Trent died. And I took her face in both my hands and kissed her again, but with the seriousness of a parting bless- ing. For-all her dignity, she has to reach up to me when I kiss her. ' She put my Nair tidy with a gentle hand, and said: “You are not at all what a junges Madchen generally is, but you are very nice. Please wish that my child may be a boy, so that I shall become the mother of a soldier.”’ . . Il kissed her again, and got out of it that way, for I don’t wish anything of the sort, and with that we parted. Meanwhile the Grafin had been sitting very firmly in her carriage, having refused all Frau Bornsted’s entreaties to come in. It was wonderful to see how affable she was and yet how firm, and wonderful to see the gulf her affability put between the Bornsteds— he was at the gate, too, bowing—and herself. . And now here I am, and it’s past 11, and my window opens right on to the Haff, and far away across the water I can see the lights of Swinemunde-twinkling ‘where the Haff joins the open sea. It is a most beau- tiful old house, centuries old, and we had a romantic evening—first at supper in a long, narrow, paneled PAGE SIX she said, with solemn 4 ‘ 4 Ce age ee a a en oP ee eee 4 rah: hl arts Di ee Se OR te as aS room lit by candles, and then on the terrace beneath my windows, where larkspurs grow against the low wall along the water’s edge. There is nobody here except the Koseritzes, and Herr von Inster, and two girl friends of Helena’s, very pretty and smart-looking, and an old lady who was once the Grafin’s governess and comes here every summer to enjoy what she called, speaking English to me, the summer fresh. It was like a dream. The water made lovely little soft noises along the wall of the terrace. It was so still that we could hear the throb of a steamer far away on the Haff, crossing from Stettin to Swine- munde. The Graf, as usual, said nothing—‘He has much to think of,” the Grafin whispered to me. The girls talked together in undertones, which would have made me feel shy and out of it if I hadn’t somehow not minded a bit, and they did look exactly what the Colonel had said they were, in their pale evening frocks—a nosegay of very delicate and well-cared-for hothouse flowers. I had on my evening frock for the first time since I left England, and after the weeks of high blouses.felt conspicuously and terribly over- ‘dressed up in my bedroom and till I saw the frocks * the others had on, and then I felt exactly the opposite. Herr von Inster hardly spoke, and not to me at all, but I didn’t mind. I had so much in my head that he had talked about this morning. I feel so completely natural with him, so content; and I think it is because he is here at Koseritz that I’m so comfortable, and not in the least shy, as I was that day at luncheon. I simply take things as they come, and don’t think about myself at all. When I came down to supper tonight he was waiting in the hall, to show me the way, he said; and he watched me coming down the stairs with that look in his eyes that is such a contrast to the smart, alert efficiency of his figure and manner— it is so gentle, so kind. I went into the room where they all were with a funny feeling of being safe. I don’t even know whether Helena stared. Tomorrow the Klosters come over, and are going to stay the night, and tomorrow | may play my fiddle again. I’ve faithfully kept my promise and not touched it. Really, as it’s a quarter to 12 now and at midnight my. week’s fasting will be over, I might be- gin and play it quite soon. I wonder what would hap- pen if I sat on my windowsill and played Ravel to the larkspurs and the stars! I believe it would make even the Graf say something. But I won’t do any- thing so unlike, as Frau Bornsted would say, what a junges Madchen generally does, but go to hed instead, into the prettiest bed I’ve slept in since I had a frilly _cot. in the nursery—all pink silk coverlet and lace- edged sheets. The room is just like an English coun- try-house bedroom; in fact, the Grafin told me she got all her chintzes in London! It’s so funny, after my room at Frau Berg’s, and my little unpainted wooden attic at the Oberforsterei. Good-night, my blessed mother. There are two owls somewhere calling to each other in the forest. Not another sound. Such utter peace. YOUR CHRIS. Koseritz, . Sunday evening, July 19, 1914, My Own Darling Mother: I don’t know what you'll say, but I’m engaged to Bernd. That’s Herr von Inster. You know his name is Bernd? I don’t know what to say to it myself. I can’t quite believe it. This time last night I wae writ- ing to you in this very room, with no thought of any- thing in the world but just ordinary happiness with kind friends and one specially kind and understanding friend, and here-Lam 24 hours later done with ordinary happiness, taken into my lover’s heart forever. It was so strange. got engaged in quite that way before. I’m sure every- body thinks we’re insane, except Kloster. Kloster doesn’t. He understands. It was after supper. Only three hours ago. I won- der if it wasn’t a dream. We were all on the terrace, as we were last night. The Klosters had come early in the afternoon. There wasn't a leaf stirring, and not a sound except that lapping water against the bottom of the wall where the larkspurs are. You know how sometimes when everybody has been talking together without stopping there’s a sudden hush. That hap- pened tonight, and after what seemed a long while of silence the Grafin said to Kloster: “I suppose, Master, it would be too much to ask you to play to us?” “Here?” he said. “Out here?” “Why not?’ she said. I don’t believe any girl ever. I hung breathless on what he would say. Suppose he played, out there in the dusk, with the stars and the water. and the forest. all rotind us, what would it be like? : He got up without a word and went indoors. The Grafin looked uneasy. “I hope,” she said to Frau Kloster, “my asking has not offended him?” But Bernd knew—Bernd, still at that moment only Herr von Inster for me. “He is going to play,” he said. And presently he came out again with his Strad, and standing on the step outside the drawing room window he played. I thought: This is the most wonderful moment of my life. But it wasn’t; there was a more wonderful one coming. | We sat there in the great brooding night, and the music told us the things about love and God that we know but can never say. When he had done nobody spoke. He stood on the step for a minute in silence, then he came down to where I was sitting on the low wall by the water and put the Strad into my hands. “Now you,” he said. Nobody spoke. I felt as though I were asleep. He took my hand and made me stand up. “Play what you like,” he said; and left me there, and went and sat down again on the steps by the window. I don’t know what I played. It was the violin that played while I held it and listened. I forgot everybody —forgot Kloster critically noting what I did wrong, and forgot, so completely that I might have been un- conscious myself. I was listening; and what I heard were secrets, secrets strange and exquisite; noble, and - so courageous that suffering didn’t matter, didn’t touch—all the secrets of life. I can’t explain. It wasn’t like anything one knows really. It was like something very important, very beautiful, that one used to know, but has forgotten. Presently the sounds left off. I didn’t fee] as though I had had anything to do with their leaving off. There was dead silence. I stood wondering rather confusedly, as one wonders when one first wakes from a dream and sees familiar things again and doesn’t quite under- stand. Kloster got up and came and took the Strad from me. I could see his face in the dusk, and thought it looked queer. He lifted up my hands one after the other, and kissed them. But Bernd got up from where he was sitting away from the others, and took me in his arms and kissed my eyes. And that’s how we were engaged. I think they said something. I don’t know what it was, but there was a murmur, but I seemed very far away and very safe; and he turned round when they murmured, and took my hand and said: “This is my wife.” And he looked at me and said: “Is it not so?” And I said: “Yes.” And I don’t remember what happened next, and perhaps it was alla dream. I’m so tired—so tired and heavy with happiness that I could drop in a heap on the floor and go to sleep like that. Beloved mother—bless : YOUR CHRIS. | ) f —_—_— Koseritz, Monday, July 20.

And you see, little mother, I'm only a woman who is going to have a pro- fession, and that’s an impossible thing from the junker point of view.

We've had a wonderful morn- ing walking in the forest. It’s all quite true what hap- pened last night. It wasn’t a dream. We are engaged. I've hardly seen the others. They congratulated us quite politely. Kloster was very kind, but anxious lest I should let love, as he says, spoil art. We laughed at that.

My Own Mother: Thank you so much for your telegram of blessing, darling one, which I have just had. It seems to set the seal of happiness on me. I know you will love Bernd, and understand directly you see him why I do. We are so placid here these beautiful summer days. Every- body accepts us now resignedly as a fait accompli, and though they remain unenthusiastic they are polite and tolerant. And whenever I play to them they all grow kind. It’s rather like being Orpheus with his lute, and they the mountain tops that freeze. I’ve discov- ered I can melt them by just making music: Helena ’ peally does love music. It was quite true what -her ‘ mother said. Since I played that first wonderful night of my engagement she has been quite different to me. She still is silent, because that’s her nature, and she still stares; but now she stares in a sort of surprise, with a question in her eyes. And wherever she may be in the house or garden, if she hears me — beginning to play she creeps near on tiptoe and listens. Kloster has gone. He and his wife were both very kind to us, but Kloster is worried because I've fallen in love. I’m not to go back to Berlin till Monday, as Bernd can stay on here till then, and there’s no point in spending a Sunday in Berlin unless one has to. Kloster is going to give me three lessons a week in- stead of two, and I shall work now with such renewed delight! He says I won’t, but I know better. Every- thing I do seems to be touched now with delight. How funny that room at Frau Berg’s will look and feel after being here. But I don’t mind going back . to it one little half aescrap. Bernd will be in Berlin; he'll be writing to me, seeing me, walking with me. With him there it will be, every bit of it, perfect. “When I come back to town in October,” the Grafin said to me, “you must stay with us. It is not fitting that Bernd’s betrothed should live in that boarding house of Frau Berg’s. Will not your mother soon join you?” It is very kind of her, I think. It appears that a girl who is engaged has to be chaperoned even more than a girl who isn’t. What funny ancient stuff these con- ventions are. Of course, Frau Berg and her boarders are to the junker dreadful beyond words. But her question about you set me. thinking. Won't you come, little mother? As it is such an unusual and never-to-be-repeated occurrence in our family that its one and only child should be going to marry? yet I can’t quite see you in August in lodgings in Ber- lin, come down from your beautiful mountain, away from your beautiful lake. After all, I’ve only got four more months of it, and then I’m finished and caif go back to‘you. What is going to happen then, exactly, I don’t know. Bernd says, “Marry,” and that you'll come and live with us in Germany. That’s all very well, but what about, if I marry so soon, starting my public career, which was to have begun this next winter? Kloster says impatiently, “Oh, marry and get done with it,” and that then I'll be sensible again and able to arrange niy debut as a violinist with the calm. I gather he thinks, of the disillusioned. “I'm perfectly sensible,” I said. “You are not. You are in love. A woman should never be an artist. Again I say, Mees Chrees, what I have said to you before, that it is sheer malice on the part of Providence to have taken you, a woman, as the vessel which is to carry this great gift about the world. A man, gifted to the extent you so unluckily are, falls in love and is inspired by it. Indeed, it is in that condition that he does his best work; which is why the man artist is so seldom a faithful husband, for the faithful husband is precluded from being in leve.”’ “Why can’t he be in love?” [ asked, husbands now’ having become very interesting @ me. “Because he is a faithful husband.” “But he can be in love with his wife.” “No,” said Kloster, “he cannot. And he cannot for the same reason that no man can go on wanting his dinner who has had it. Whereas,” he went on louder, because I had opened my mouth and was going to say~ something, “a woman firtist who falls in love negtects everything and merely loves.

We're not going to waste a minute. He adores my music, and “hie pride in it inspires me and makes me glow with longing to do better and befter for his sake, so as to sec him moved, to see him with that dear look of happy triumph in his eyes.

That is nothing that will ever be any good. You are, you see, just the veriest woman; and here”—he almost cried—- “ts this gift, this precious, immortal gift, placed in such shaky, small hands as yours.” “I'm very sorry,” I said, feeling quite ashamed that I had it, he was so much annoyed. “No, no,” he said, relenting a little, “do not be sor- ry—marry. Marry quickly. Then re may be re- covery.” F And when he was saying good-hby—I tell you this because it will amuse you—he said with a kind of angry grief that if Providence were determined, in its un- accountable freakishness, to place a gift which should be so exclusively man’s in the shell or husk (I forget which he called it, but anyhow it sounded contemptu- ous); of a woman, it might at least have selected an ugly woman. “It need not,” he said angrily, “have taken one who was likely in any case to be selected for purposes of love-making, and given her, besides the ordinary collection of allurements provided by nature to attract the male, a Beethovenkopf. Never should pe wide sweep of brow and those deep-set eyes, the whole noble thoughtfulness of such a- head’”—you mustn’t think me vain, little mother; he positively said all these things and was so angry—‘“have been com- bined with the rubbish, in this case irrelevant and actually harmful, that goes to make up the usual pret- ty young face. Mees Chrees, I could have wished you some minor deformity, such as many spots, for then you would not now be in this lamentable condition of being loved and responding to it. And if,” he said asa parting shot, “Providence was determined to commit this folly, it need not have crowned it by choosing an English woman.’ “What?” I said, astonished, following him out on the steps, for he has always seemed to like and admire us. “The English are not musical,” he said, climbing into the car that was to take him to the station, and in which Frau Kloster had been patiently waiting. “They are not, they never were, and they never wi'l be.

No, no,” he said, tucking the dust cover round himself and his wife, “the English are not musicians. And you,” he , who replied called back as the car was moving, “You, Mees Chrees, are a freak—-nothing whatever but a freak and an ac- cident.” We turned away to go indoors. The Grafin said she considered he might have wished her good-by. “After all,” she remarked, “I was bis hostess.” She looked thoughtfully at me and. Bernd as we stood arm-in-arm aside at the door to let -her pass. “These geniuses,” she said, laying her hand a moment on Bernd’s shoulder, “are interesting but difficult.” i think, little mother, she meant me, and was feeling a little sorry for Bernd! Isn’t it queer how people don’t understand. Any- how, when she had gone in we looked at each other and laughed, and Bernd took my hands and kissed them one after the other, and said something so sweet, so dear—but I can't tell you what it was.

I can’t help thinking that all that talk I heard im Berlin, all that restless- ness.and desire to hit out at somebody, anybody—the knock-him-down-and-rob-him idea they seemed ob- sessed with, was simply because it .was drawing near the holiday time of year, and everyone was overe worked and nervy after a year’s being cooped up in offices; and then the great heat came and finished them. They were cross, like overtired children, cross and quarrelsome. How cross | was, too, tormented by those flies!

And by the time they did want to, having got jumpy in the course of months of uninterrupted herd- ing together, it will be time for them to go for holidays again, back to the blessed country to be soothed and healed. And each year we shall grow wiser, each year more grown-up, less like naughty children, nearer to God. All we want is time—time to think and under- stand. I feel religious now. Happiness has made me so religious that I would satisfy even Aunt Edith. I’m sure happiness brings one to God much quicker than ways of grief. Indeed, it’s the only right way of being brought, I think.. You know, little mother, I've always hated the idea of being kicked to God, of get- ting on to our knees because we've been beaten till we can’t stand. I think if I were to lose what I love— you, Bernd, or be hurt in my hands so that f couldn't play—it wouldn't make me good, it would make me bad. I'd go all hard and defy and rebel. And really, God ought to like that best. It’s at least a square and manly attitude. Think how we would despise any creature who fawned on us, and praised and thanked us because we had been cruel. And why should God be less fine than ‘we are? Oh, well, I must go to bed. One can’t settle God in the tail-end of a letter. But I'm going to say prayers tonight, real prayers of grati- tude, real uplifting of the heart in thanks and praise.

There was no avoiding the issue, no firing in the air, and getting over with it as in the old-fashioned duel. This mutual man-hunt must keep up until one got the other. And if one neglected a chance to get the other, that increased the other’s chance to get him. There could be no false sentiment about it. Tudor had beem a cunning devil when he proposed this sort of duel, Sheldon concluded, as he began to work along cautiously in the direction of the last shot. When he arrived at the spot, Tudor was gone, and only his footprints remained, pointing out the course he had taken into the depths of the plantation. Once, 10 minutes later, he caught a glimpse of Tudor, a hun- dred yards away, crossing the same avenue as himself, but going in the opposite direction. His rifle half leaped to his shoulder, but the other was gone. More in whim than in hope of result, grinning to himself as he did so, Sheidon raised his automatic pistol and in two seconds sent eight shots scattering through the trees in the direction in which Tudor had disappeared. Wishing he had a shotgun, Sheldon dropped to the ground behind a tree, slipped a fresh clip up the hol- low butt of the pistol, threw a cartridge into the cham- ber, shoved the safety catch into place and reloaded the empty clip. It was but a short time after that that Tudor tried the same trick on him, the bullets pattering about him ‘ like spiteful rain, thudding into the palm trunks or glancing off in whining richocets. The’ last bullet of all, making a double ricochet from two different trees and losing most of its momentum, struck Sheldon a sharp blow on the forehead and dropped at his feet. He was partly stunned for the moment, but on in- vestigation found no greater harm than a: nasty lump that soon rose to the size of a pigeon’s egg. The hunt went on. Once, coming to the edge of the : grove near the bungalow, he saw the houseboys and the cook, clustered on the back veranda and peering curiously among the trees, talking and laughing with one another in their queer falsetto voices. Another time he came upon a working gang busy at hoeing weeds. They scarcely noticed him when he came up, though they knew thoroughly well what was going on. It was no affair of theirs that the enig- matical white men should be out trying to kill each other, and whatever interest in the proceedings might be theirs, they were careful to con- ceal it from Sheldon. He ordered them to continue hoeing weeds in a distant and out- of-the way corner, and went on with the pur- suit or Tudor. Tiring of the end- less circling, Sheldon tried once more to advance directly on his foe, but the latter was too crafty, taking advantage of his bold- ness to fire a couple of shots at him and slipping away on some changed and continu- ally changing course. For an hour they dodged and_ turned and twisted back and forth and around and hunted each other among the orderly | palms: They caught fleeting glimpses of each other and chanced flying shots which were without re- sult, On a grassy shelter behind a tree, Sheldon came upon where Tudor had rested and smoked a cigarette. The pressed grass showed where he had sat. To one side lay the cigarette stump and the charred match which had lighted it. In front lay a scattering of bright metallic fragments. Sheldon recognized their significance. Tudor was notching his steel-jacketed bullets, or cutting them blunt, so that they would spread on striking—in short, he was making them into the vicious dum-dums prohibited in modern war- fare. Sheldon knew now what would happen to him if a bullet struck his body. It would leave a tiny hole where it entered, but the hole where it emerged would be the size of a saucer. He decided to give up the pursuit, and lay down in the grass, protected right and left by the row of palms, with on either hand the long avenue extending. This he could watch. Tudor would have to come to him or else there would be no termination of the affair. He wiped the sweat from his face and tied the handker- chief around his neck to keep off the stinging gnats that lurked in the grass.- Never had he felt so great asked, unsteadily. “Why?” SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—FEBRUARY 3, 1918. “Do you mean that?’ he a disgust for the thing called “adventure.’’ Joan had “been bad enough, with her Baden-Pox-ell and long- barreled Colt’s; but here was this newcomer, also looking for adventure and finding it in no other way than by lugging a peace-loving planter into an absurd and preposterous bushwhacking duel. If ever adven- ture was well damned, it was by Sheldon, sweating in the windless grass and fighting gnats, the while he kept close watch up and down the avenue. Then Tudor came. Sheldon happened to be looking in his direction at the moment he came into view, peering quickly up and down the avenue before he stepped into the open.. Midway he stopped, as if de- bating what course to pursue, He made a splendid mark, facing his concealed enemy at 200 yards’ dis- tance. Sheldon aimed at the center of his chest, then deliberately shifted the aim to his right shoulder, and, with the thought, ‘that will put him out of business,” pulled the trigger. The bullet, driving with mo- mentum sufficient to perforate a man’s body a mile distant, struck Tudor with such force as to pivot him, whirling Lim half around by the shock of its impact and knocking him down. i “Hope I haven't killed the beggar,” Sheldon mut- / f ‘ f (mrs aaae! — 4 a7 4 oe A eae ee ee j 4 (*tadtensoret or F-7 oh tered aloud, springing to his feet and running for- ward. A hundred feet away all anxiety on that score was relieved by Tudor, who made shift with his left hand and from his automatic pistol hurled a rain of bul- lets all around Sheldon. The latter dodged behind a palm trunk, counting the shots, and when the eighth had been fired, he rushed in on the wounded man. He kicked the pistol out of the other’s hand and then sat down on him in order to keep him down. ‘Be quiet,” he said, “I’ve got you, so there’s no use struggling. _ Tudor still attempted to struggle and to throw him off. “Keep quiet, I tell you,” Sheldon commanded. “I'm satisfied with the oytcome, and you’ve got to be. So you might as well give in and call this affair closed.” Tudor. reluctantly relaxed. ‘“Rather funny, isn’t it, these modern duels?” Shel- don grinned down at him as he removed his eight. “Not a bit dignified. If you'd struggled a moment longer, I’d have rubbed your face in the earth. I’ve a good mind to do it anyway, just to teach you that duel- ing has gone out of fashion. Now, let us see to your injuries.” . : : ‘ “You only got me that last,’ Tudor grunted sul- lenly, “lying in ambush }like’—— : “Like a wild Indian. ast You’ve caught th idea, old man.” Sheldon his mocking and stood up. “You lie there quietly until I send back some of the boys to carry you in. You're not seriously hurt, and it’s lucky for you I didn’t follow your ex- ample. If you had been struck with one of your own bullets, a carriage and pair would have been none too large to drive through the hole it would have made. As it is, you’re drilled clean—a nice little per- foration. All you need is antiseptic washing and dressing and you'll be around in a month. Now take it easy, and I'll send a stretcher for you.” CHAPTER XXVIII. CAPITULATION. . HEN Sheldon emerged from among the trees, he found Joan waiting at the com- \ \ - pound gate, and he could not fail to see that she was visibly gladdened at the sight of him. “I can’t tell you how glad I am to see you,” was her greeting. ‘“‘What’s become of Tudor? That last flutter of the automatic wasn’t nice to listen to. Was it you or Tudor?” “So you know all about it,” he answered coolly. “Well, it was Tudor, but he was doing it left-handed. He’s down with a hole in his shoulder.” He looked at her keenly. “Disappointing, isn’t it?’ he drawled. “How do you mean?” “Why, that I didn’t kill him.” “But I didn’t want him killed just because he kissed me,” she cried. “Oh, he did kiss you,” Sheldon retorted, in evident surprise. “I thought you said he hurt your arm.” “Qne could call it a kiss, though it was only on the end of the nose. “She laughed at the recollec- tion. “But I paid him back for that myself. I boxed his face for him. And he did hurt my arm. It’s black and blue. Look at it.” She pulled up the loose sleeve of her blouse, and he saw the bruised imprints of two fingers. Just then a gang of blacks came out from among the trees carrying the wounded man on a rough stretcher. “Romantic, isn’t it?” Sheldon sneered, following Joan’s startled gaze. “And now I’ll have to play sur- geon and doctor him up. Funny, this twentieth cen- tury dueling. First you drill a hole in a man, and next you set about piugging the hole up.” They had stepped aside to let the stretcher pass, and Tudor, who had heard the remark, lifted himself up on the elbow of his sound arm and said with a defiant grin: “If you’d got one of mine, you'd have had to plug with a dinner plate.” “Oh, you wretch!” Joan cried. “‘You’ve been cutting your bullets.” “It was according to agreement,” Tudor answered, “Everything went. We could have used dynamite if we wanted to.” “He’s right,” Sheldon assured her, as they swung in behind. Any weapon was permissible. I lay in the grass where he couldn’t see me, and bushwhaecked him in truly noble fashion. That's what comes of having women on the plantation. And now it’s antiseptics and drainage tubes, I suppose. It’s a nasty mess, and I’}] have to read up on it before I tackle the job.” “IT don’t see that it’s my fault,” she began. “I couldn't help it because he kissed me. I never dreamed he would attempt it.” “We didn’t fight for that reason. But there isn’t time to explain. If you'll get dressings and bandages ready, I'll look up ‘gun-shot wounds’ and see what's to be done.” “Is he bleeding seriously?” she asked. “No; the bullet seems to have missed the important arteries. But that would have been a pickle.” “Then there’s no need to bother about reading up,” Joan said. “And I’m just dying to hear what it was all about. The Apostle is lying becalmed inside the point, and her boats are out towing. She'll be at anchor in five minutes and Dr. Welshmere is sure to be on-board. So all we’ve got to do is to make Tudor comfortable. We'd better put him in your room under the mosquito netting and send a boat off to tell Dr. Welshmere to bring his instruments.” An hour afterward Dr. Welshmere left the patient comfortable and attended to, and went down to the beach to go on board, promising to come back to din- ner. Joan and Sheldon, standing on the veranda, watched him depart. “I'll never have it in for the missionaries again since seeing them here in the Solomons,” she said, seating herself in a steamer chair. She looked at Sheldon and began to laugh. “That's right,” he said. “It’s the way I feel, playing the fool and trying to murder a guest.” “But you haven’t told me what it was all about.” (Continued on Page 15.) s ¥ > rig v2 9 Ae: t .

The chance to grow and deVelop mentally, phys- ically, socially and morally has come to these men at a time when they least expected it, but from an ob- servation covering all the big military centers in the Central Department it can be stated unhesitatingly that the colored men are measuring up to their new opportunities. Many of the colored recruits had no notion of what they were being called upon to do. In fact, some of them were totally ignorant of the wages they were Beananier Ae - to receive as soldiers. A short time after he arrived at Camp Dodge, a negro boy from an Alabama plantation as’ ed a whité soldier when pay day was coming and how much would be paid the colored troops. The answer was what might be termed an _ im- rressive sur- } rise.” “Thirty dollars a month.” ~ “Thirty dollahs, s-.h?”’ “Yes, $30 a “ronth.’ “Ev’ry month?” “sure; $3 0 every month.” 99 “Phew-ee! Fifteen dollars a month was'the “Say, boss —what’s dis heah most he had ever Kaisah Bill stuff?

Double that amount for service in the army, besides board and clothing serrned enormous in the colored soldier’s eyes. Even after sending home $15 each month he has as much or mcre than he ever earned picking cotton. Another story is told of a negro boy who one day a’ eda Y. M. C. A. secretary: “Say, boss—what’s dis heah Kaisah Bill stuff? Jes’ show him to me an’ Ah’ll shoot arm, so we-all kin go back t’ Alabam’.” Seventy-five per cent of these colored troops have never had an opportunity to learn English well enough to read or write or to study even grade school sub- jects. It was soon found that so many negroes could neither read nor write that their illiteracy was seri- ously interfering with their becoming good soldiers. Some men hardly knew their right foot from their left and many could not understand military orders, though they were given in the simplést language. When it came to filling out questionnaires or blanks of any kind the men were nonplussed and were com-- pelled to call upon some literate friend or the Y. M. (. A. secretaries to help them. In a moment of real necessity and almost wholly un- equipped, the secretaries set about to relieve home- sickness and anxiety by writing letters for the men, though they knew that in many instances not even the men’s families would be able to read them. In this connection the story is told of a colored boy who asked a secretary to write a letter to his sweetheart.’ With much painstaking the boy dictated what he want- ed to say to his girl down in Alabama and the secre- tary carefully noted it down. When it had been finished the boy_surprised the aimanuensis by asking: “Would you-all mind writin’ ’nother lettah, boss?” “No,” said the secretary,. “not at all. Who shall we write this time?’ ° “*Nother gal,” said the boy. “All right,” agreed the secretary, ready for any queer turn. ‘What shall I say?” _.The colored boy scratched his head for a moment be- fore he said: “Well, boss, jes’ copy de first lettah.”’ In the midst of the letter-writing demand in this same cantonment a secretary came upon a number of English leaflets that had been used to instruct for- eign-speaking men in barracks which the negroes now occupied. He eagerly seized upon these and immedi- ately organized a class in English, using the same pho- netic system devised by Dr. Peter Roberts. Several days later, in reporting his work to headquarters, he declared that more lessons were imperative, as the men were simply “eating them up.” Such a demand had not been anticipated by the Y. M. C. A., and in the absence of anything better the Roberts leaflets were used, with the result that hun- dreds of colored men became inoculated with the germ of ambition and engaged eagerly in learning to read and write the common tongue of the country. Whereas, only a | sew weeks before there had been several hundred letters written daily in the Y. M. C. A. hut for colored men at Camp Dodge, there now began to be written literally thousands. It was estimated that nearly 5000 letters were being written by the colored troops during the Christmas season. One day a secretary in charge of English instruction for colored troops appealed to the Camp Educational Director: “We must have pens and ink for these men now; 1000 of each.”’ “But the men have pencils,” said the Educational Di- rector. ‘Why should they have pen and ink?” “Because they have to sign the payroll in ink—and hundreds of them can’t use a pen to save their lives.”’ The idea was a new one in Y. M. C. A. experience, for no one had any idea that one who wrote with a pencil could not also write with a pen. But some of the signatures of the colored troopers were ex- amined and what appeared to be perfectly legible in pencil was nothing less than a pen scratch in ink. So the Y. M. C. A. provided 1000 penholders, 2000 pen- points and 1000 bottles of ink and set the men to work with their new weapon. The weapon proved in many cases to be somewhat of the nature of a squirtgun, for those who tried it for the first time almost covered themselves with ink; some of them loo*ed as if they had been taking a bath in it, But the difficulty was overcome by patience and practice and today ‘a majority of these colored troops can write as well with a pen as with a pencil. At Camp Grant the Y. M. C. A. campaign in writing was given the slogan: “Every Man Must Write His Name,” and the response was immediate. Some of the men had been told the story that they could not draw their pay unless they could sign their names to the payroll in ink, but a majority of them entered the cam- paign because they were interested in being able to communicate with their folks at home. Camp Sherman has quartered nearly 4000 colored troops, practically all of whom have been enrolled in one or more phases of Y.’'M. C. A. activity. Educa- tional lectures of various kinds have attracted a large attendance and English classes for illiterates have been popular. Captains of colored companies have insisted of much the same nature and results = ay in the other Northern centers, Throughout the Central Military De- partment the English and letter-writing campaigns have produced widely beneficial results. The men are by no means so lonesome as they were or as they would be. without their present knowledge; they are now in closer touch with their homes and friends alfd as a whole are a much more contented lot of na- tional defenders. Also, their ambitions have been whetted and they are ready to enroll in other educa- tional classes whenever they shall be organized. Other changes are being observed. The men are getting a new at- titude toward im- morality just by answering the ap- peal that comes to them from the recreational or. so- cial or religious activities promot- ed by the Y. M. C. A.’ In several di- visions of colored troops the secre- The‘colored boy scratched his ‘#Ties have found head for a moment before he said: 4 distinct falling “Well, boss, jes copy de first let- off in profanity tah.” and gambling as a result of their evening and Sunday afternoon evangelistic meetings’ and of their provision of letter paper and envelopes for them to use in writing home. From the physical standpoint these same men are being helped perhaps more than any others in the en- tire enlistment. Not many negroes have had an oppor- tunity to indulge in outdoor recreation; they have the play instinct, but they have never known how to give expression to it except by means of the buck- and-wing and a few other crude and simple play move- ments. “ Naturally, they have responded eagerly to the ath- letic games and general recreational features of the Y. M. C. A. program. “They all have to be taught how to play,” said one of the physical directors in a big cantonment, “but they are really quick to learn and get lots of good from their participation in eames of all sorts. We even follow - them up into the field or in the trench or wher- ever they happen to be stationed, and put on va- rious games and recreational ac- tivities. The col- syred branch of the Army Y. M.

They are valuable as the source of aeculin, one of the important glucosides; they are so rich in saponin that, crushed, they may be used in place of soap in the laun- dry; their abundant starch is easily extracted and freed from its bitterness or may be used in the production of alcohol; and lastly, dried and crushed horse chest- nuts are a nutritious and wholesome food for cattle and sheep. ? — “PAGE RWELVE: SUNDAY.

Before them the French settlers of the town put their stamp upon the architecture. One of the earliest bulidings of whicn a pic- ure has been preserved is shown below. The date it was built is not recorded, but the picture is said to have been made in. 1790. So far as its architecture is con- cerned, the building might have been transported bodily to St. Louis from a French village. The residence was situated at the north- east corner of Main and Elm streets, and in later years sometimes was known as the “Conde house” and sometimes as the ‘“‘Benoist house.” It is said to have been first occupied by Dr. Andrew A. Conde, a native of France, who came to St. Louis in 1766 and whd was the grandfather of Louis A. Benoist, pioneer banker and financier and father of the elder generation of Benoists now residing here. Louis Benoist was born in this residence, in the room whose window is shown at the right in the upper. part.

Makers of myths. and legends about musica! prodi- gies are already busy, but here are the true facts concerning his biography, as re- lated in a statement officially issued by his managers: Jascha (or Joseph) Heifetz was born at Vilna, Russia, of Jewish parents, 17 years ago. At the age of 3 he began his musical studies with his: father, also a violinist, as his teacher. At 5 he entered the Royal School of Music at Vilna, making a public appearance the same year. The boy was only 6 when he played the Mendelssohn concerto in public, and at the age of 8 he was graduated from the conservatory. He was then taken to Petrograd, where, after many disappointments, a_ hearing was finally arranged with Prof. Auer, the Hungarian maestro, who is considered the ablest teacher of the violin in history. Some days later this famous instructor de- clared that Heifetz was the most astonish- ° ing genius he had ever heard. Less than two years after going to Petrograd, Hei- fetz gave his first recital and at once caught the eyes agd ears of musical Rus- sia. — Soon afterwards he played seven con- certs with the Odessa Symphony Orches- tra, during an exhibition held in that city. In 1911 he made his first tour outside of Russia, appearing in Berlin with the Phil- harmonic Orchestra under Arthur Nikisth, then in Vienna under Wassily Safonoff, and in other cities of Central Europe. At the outbreak of the war he was living with his parents and two sisters in Petro- grad, and was not interned in Germany, as some accounts have stated. Prior. to coming to America he made a tour through Norway, Denmark and Sweden, and last winter he gave 12 ene in Pet- rograd. He had never appeared in London or any part of the British empire. It took JASCHA HEKIFETZ. him and his family two months to reach America from Russia; they journeyed through Siberia and China, across the Pa- cific to San Francisco and from there, last September, to New York. He made his American debut at Car- negie Hall in New York, on Oct. 27. His fame had preceded him, and he was greet- ed by one of the most distinguished audi- ences ever gathered in the city. Every musician of note for miles around was present, including Fritz Kreisler, Mischa Elman and Leopold Godowsky. It is related that as the recital proceed- ed, Eiman began to perspire, mopped his brow and tugged at his collar, finally turning to Godowsky, the famous pianist, ‘Famous with the complaint: “My, my, Leopold, it’s frightfully hot in here.” Godowsky re- plied heartlessly: “Not. for pianists, Mischa.” At any rate, the audience and critics proclaimed that in Heifetz, aged 17, had arisen a violinistic star of the very first magnitude. It was agreed that he had Absolutely nothing to learn concerning the technique of his instrument, that if ever there was flawless perfection in violin playing, it was here. What created great astonishment was the boy’s complete mod- esty ahd absence of mannerisms, his ma- turity of poise, his sphinx-like imper- turbability in the face of the most frantic demonstrations in his honor. Heifetz went on to Chicago and played there with the Symphony Orchestra. A recital was immediately arranged for the next Tuesday night, and when it arrived Orchestra Hall was packed to the last seat, and 200 persons were accommodated on the stage. The result was a furore re- calling the early days of Paderewski, so rare is such a demonstration in an Amer- ican city. The youthful artist was even followed to his automobile by a crowd which cheered as he drove away. Had it been in the old days of carriages, it is certain the throng would have unhitched the horses and drawn him with their own hands to his hotel. Heifetz has since given nine recitals in New York, all to crowded houses. He has given two additional recitals in Chi- cago, and will be heard here at the Odeon on. the night of Feb. 8. In Boston he aroused immense excitement, and the crit- ic of the conservative Transcript had the |= following to say: “His listeners looked upon a slender youth, with a drawn, hollowed and weary face that his playing belied; a notably high forehead and intent eye, sensitive lips and mobile chin, of the complexion that the French call chataigne, with a halo of bright hair for a final setting. “Noticeably, his hands are a violinist’s, long of line, lengthy-fingered, supple, from: as long, slender and pliant wrists. Already his manners and aspect are those of a cultivated and modest youth of the The Junker—His Origin and Means of Power (Continued from Page 5.) my illustrious excellency of a scientist.”’ Bigelow’s comment is: “She spoke in anger and under provocation, and when her anger had. subsided perhaps’. she changed her mind, but I doubt it.” The same writer comments on the fact that in the great statuary group in Ber- lin commemorating Frederick the Great, his Marshals occupy prominent ~ places, while Kant, the greatest of German think- ers, cannot be found without search, and is then to be discovered under the tail of Frederick’s horse. He recalis that <“Mommsen and Virchow died social pari- ahs in Berlin, and felt fortunate in escap- ing prison garb, while Treitschke and S5y- bel, who glorified the Prussian state, died rich in honors from a grateful sovereign and his military caste. Bigelow relates that as a boy of 8 he was sent to a big boarding school at Bonn, and that the Frau Professorin was filled with horror at his presumption in daring to dislike beer soup, which she knew must be good because it was prescribed by a Prussian institution. On the first night, when Herr Professor began intoning the Lord’s Prayer in German, the little Amer- ican boy had the misfortune to cast his eyes up at the ceiling instead of lowering them to the floor, as prescribed by the regulations. He was punished with a blow on the head whith almost floored him, and remarks that the master “no doubt glowed with an inner satisfaction at one more duty done, one more step onward in the march that was spreading Prussian educational methods to the efids of the earth.”’ Concerning the cruelty of ‘the Prussian officer, Bigelow tells that later in life he was a guest on a German war vessel in the West Indies. A gunnery drill was on, and an officer strolled with him from gun to gun. “In the midst of a sentence,” he states, “he stopped and, drawing his hand back as one about to send a ball from center field to home base, he administered a blow on the cheek of a gunner that vir- idly recalled my experience at Korf@garn’s religious exercises. The blow was ac- companied by a few sharp words. The officer then smiled pleasantly and went on with his conversation as might a man who had demolished a mosquito or re- moved a fly from his: beer mug.’’ “Some of my German friends,” he adda, “have shown considerable irritation when I pointed out sympathetically that the conception-of a gentleman was not at home in Prussia, but had to be imported in a mutilated form.” As the playmate of the Prussian Crown Prince, now the Emperor, and his brother, | Prince Henry, Bigelow often met “the orthodox children of Prussia who have been drilled to stand at attention and move by word of command only.” “Many such children,’’ he says, “came to the palace during my Potsdam days; they were all of the highest military aris- 7. tocracy and were obviously invited for reasons of etiquette and from no désire on the part of the two Princes, who dis- liked nothing more than the hypocritical- ly perfect manners of these tiresome, supertrained junkerlings. However, it was not their fault entirely, for their pa- rents had drilled the spontaneous life- spring out of them and they moved and spoke as if a spy were behind the arras to denounce them for any natural expres- sion that might eo drop from their lips.” Bigelow reminds his neaiieie of a nota- ble instance of cowardice on the part of the Prussian junkers as a class, and also asserts that the men who made Prussia great were not Prussians. “Frederick the Great,” he says, “never had a large army, compared with those of today, but it was terribly efficient, and always larger, stronger and more active than that of any other monarch. His sol- diers were virtually slaves, whom he flogged, shot or rewarded, without ref- erence to the paragraphs of any law book. “His army and his system, however, were completely wrecked in 1806 at the battle of Jena, when the son of a Corsican notary chased the whole Prussian army, along with its titled officers, through a dozen different German states, and halted only when a few fragments of the Pots- dam guards crept into the Russian lines for safety.” To the Wife of One Who Drinks I have an important confidential message for you.

His tones speak for him, without @. - the superfluous aid of bodily movement or merely physical excitement. He does not seek to make his face_the mirror of his mind, or to open his heart to the unre- sponsive ceiling. He keeps both for play through his music. Not Mr. Kreisler him- self, in general presence and particular demeanor towards hearers, is a more aris- tocratic violinist. “The applause lavished upon Mr. Heifetz did not seem to move him. His poise, in fact, his seeming impassivity even, is not thé least -singular of his attributes. He answers ovations briefly, formally, almost curtly, with a few bows, smileless, imper- turbable, almost mechanical. Rather, in his bearing and playing, he seems un- aware of the presence of his audience.” On the technical side, he has been praised for the range, freedom and exacti- tude of his bowing, for the infinitely pli- ant play of his fingers, for his sensitive and faultless ear, for his limpid but never over-sentimentalized tone. Yet, for all his apparent impassivity, he was naive enough, the next morning after his debut in New York, to ask his accompanist, Andre Benoist, whether” he thought the audience had liked the re- cital.

Captain Collings sailed the seas for many years: then he sustained a bad double rupture that soon forced him to not only remain ashore. but kept him bedridden for years. He tried doctor after doctor and truss after truss. No results! Finally he was assured that he must either submit to a dangerous and abhorrent operation or die. He did neither! He cured himself instead. “Fellow Men and Women. You Don’t Have te Be Cut Up. and You Den’t Have to Be Tortured by Trusses.” Captain Collings made a study of himself. of his condition—and at last he was rewarded by the finding of the method that so quickly made him a well. strong. vigorous and happy man. Anyone can use the same method: it’s simple. easy. safe and inexpensive. Every ruptured per- son in the world should have the Captain Col- lings book, telling all about how he cured him. self. and how anyone may follow the same treatment in their own home without any trou- ble.

But you just said it wasn’t.” . “Oh, it wasn’t the kiss.” He walked over to the railing and leaned against it, facing her. “But it was about you all the same, and I may as well tell you. You remember, I warned you long ago what would happen when you wanted to become a partner in Berande. Well, all the beach is gossiping about it; and Tudor persisted in repeating the gossip to me. So you see, it won’t do for you to stay on here under present conditions. It would be better if you went away.” “But I don’t want to go away,” she objected, with rueful countenance. ie chaperon, then’’—— “No, nor a chaperon.” “But you surely don’t expect me to om around shoot- ing every slanderer in the Solomons that opens his mouth?” he demanded gioomily. ‘ ‘No, nor that either,” she answered with quick im- pulsiveness. “I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll get married and put a stop to it all.—There!” He looked at her in amazement, and would have be- lieved that she was making fun of him had it not been for the warm blood that suddenly suffused her cheeks. “Do you mean that?” he asked unsteadily. “Why?” “To put a stop to all the nasty gossip of the beach. That’s a pretty good reason, isn’t it?’ - The temptation was strong enough and sudden enough to make him waver, but all the disgist came back to him that was his when he lay in the grass, fighting gnats and cursing adventure, and he an- swered: “No; it is worse than no reason at all. I don’t care . to marry you as a matter of expediency’’—— “You are the most ridiculous creature!” she broke in, with a flash of her old-time anger. “You talk love and marriage to me, very much against my wish, and go mooning around over the plantation week after week because you can’t have m@ and look at me when you think I’m not noticing and when all the time I’m wondering when you had your last square meal be- cause of the hungiy look in your eyes, and make eyes at my revolver belt hanging on a nail, and fight duels about me, and all the rest—and—and now, when I say I'll marry you, you do yourself the honor of re- fusing me.” “You can’t make me any more ridiculous than I feel,” he answered, rubbing the lump on his forehead reflectively. “And if this is the accepted romantic program—a duel over a girl and the girl rushing into the arms of the winner—why, I shall not make a big- ger ass of myself by going in for it.” “T thought you’d jump at it,” she confessed, with a naivete he could not but question, for he thought he saw a ish gleam in her eyes. “My conception of love must differ from yours then,” os said. “I should want 2 woman to marry me for love of me, and not out of romantic admira- tion because I was lucky enough tg drill a hole in a man’s shoulder with smokeless powder. I tell you Iam disgusted with this adventure tomfoolery and rot. . -}] @on’t like it. Tudor’s a sample of the adventurer kind—picking a quarrel with me and behaving like a monkey, insisting on fighting with me—‘to the death,’ he said. It was like a penny dreadful.” She was biting her Hp, and though her eyes were eoo! and level looking as ever, the telltale angry red was in her cheeks. “Of course, if you don’t want to marry me’—— “But I do,” he hastily interposed. “Oh, you do”—— “But don’t ‘you see, little girl, I want you to love me,” he hurried on. ‘Otherwise, it would be only half a marriage. I don’t want you to marry me simply romantic notion. I shouldn’t want you—that way.” “Oh, in that case,” she said with assumed delib- erateness, and he could have sworn to the roguish “in that ease, since you are willing to con- sider my offer, let me make a few remarks. In the place, you needn’t sneer at adventure when you living it yourself, and you were certainly living t when I found you first, down with fever on a lonely with a couple of hundred wild cannibals life.

And that’s all the satisfaction you gave me when we had that man-talk. But I have been loving you for weeks —during all the time you have been so deliciously and unobtrusively jealous of Tudor.” “Yes, yes, go on,” he urged breathlessly, when she paused. “I wondered when you’d break out, and beeause you didn't I loved you all the more. You were like Dad and Von. You could hold yourself in check. You didn’t make a fool of yourself.” “Not until today,” he suggested. * “Yes, and I loved you for that, too. It was about time. I began to think you were never going to bring up the subject again. And now that I have offered myself you haven't even accepted.” With both hands on her shoulders he held her at arm’s length ‘from him and looked long into her eyes, no longer cool, but seemingly pervaded with a golden flush.

Soon after the beginning of the Civil War Dr. Mc Dowell’s pronounced Southern sympathies brought upon him the hand of the Federal authorities. His college building was seized and used first as a bar- racks and later as a military prison. Dr. MeDowell went south and served-as a surgeon and medical di- rector for the Confederacy. At the close of the war he returned to St. Louis and re-established his college, but died three years later and the college was moved to Sixth and Elm streets. It underwent various changes until a reorganization was effected which made it the Missouri Medical College and it was trans- ferred to a new building at Twenty-third street and Lucas avenue.
