LOUIS U, MEMORIAL Arrival of Night Watchman Saves Memento Marking Site of -Schoors First Home. we : The timély arrival of a night watchman at Ninth street afd Wash- ington avenue, at .11-o0’clock last night, prevented the theft of a brass tablet prized by St. Louis University, and deprived an energetic thief of a tidy chunk of first-class junk. Years ago a brass tablet was placed on theewall of a building at Ninth street and Washington avenue by the St. Louis University Alumni Associa- tion to mark the spot as the first home of the school. About five years ago the building was leased by a furniture company and the wall torn down to make room for a display window. The tablet was removed and imbedded in the floor of the dis- play windew. The window was broken in Satur- day’s windstorm, and the interior has remained exposed. Last night the watchman saw a-man sitting in the window, and when he approached, the man fled. Three screws of the brass tablet had been removed. The tablet was taken to a police station.

TELLS OF OP, {Believes Other Places May Be . Obtained for Those Whose Reemployment Is Opposed. Charles J. Lammert, president of the Building Trades Council and ‘member of the Board of Election Commissioners, who, with Federal Mediator Rogers, arranged the con- ference of striking union sales clerks of department stores and the store executives yesterday, said today that in his opinion the settlement of the strike was near, and that he believed there was little in the way to pre- vent a settlement by tomorrow even- ing. “With a committee of union lead- ers, I met the employers last Thurs- day,’ said Lammert. “The employ- ers told us they had no objection to their employes belonging ‘to the union, and that they would be wil- ling to take back all old employes except possibly eight or ten. Thinks Hitch Is Not Serious. “The conference yesterday resulted from this meeting, and while there was a hitch over the question of tak- ing back the employs, I do not be- lieve it is serious. General Manager Salomon of Famous & Barr called to see me this morning, and, telling me that he was speaking for the employ- ers, repeated the statement made by the employers at Thursday’s meet- ing. “T believe that it will be possible to arrange for other employment for the eight or 10 strikers whom tke stores do not want to take back. I expect to arrange for a conference tomorrow of the committee of clerks, and a committee of the allied trades employed in the stores.

At its conclusion E. E. Baker of Indianapolis, president of the Re- tail Clerks’ International Protective Association, said that the principal matter discussed was the reinstate- men of strikers, and of any who had been discharged for joining the vnion. The employers, he said, re- fused to promise’that all would.be reinstated, saying that - some had committed overt acts against the stores. He said the questions of recognition of the union and wages were not discussed at length, and that the conference ended without an agreement being reached. Representatives of the stores de- clined to make a statement after the conference.

Dispatches from the French capital say about 60 air- planes crossed the French lines, but some of them were driven off by the artillery barrage. The French official statement on the raid says warning was given at 9:10 o’clock and that ‘all clear” was sounded at midnight. Numerous bombs were thrown on Paris and the suburbs, beginning at 10:15. Several buildings were demolished or set on fire. One of the German raiders was brought down in flames and the crew taken prisoner, a Havas dis- patch from Paris states.

DISLOYALTY SENTENCES William F. Schubert Assessed $250 Instead of Two Years’ Imprisonment. It Was learned today that United States District Judge Dyer, in cham- bers yesterday, modified the two- year penitentiary sentences which he imposed Feb. 26 against William H. Schubert of 2449 Chippewa street, and August Scheuring of 3419 Lucas avenue, both of whom pleaded guilty to disloyalty charges. Schubert's sentence was reduced to a $250 fine and Scheuring’ssto im- prisonment for a year and a day. Judge Dyer was confined to his home by a cold this morning and could not be reached fer a statement. Scheur- ing already has been committed ‘o prison. Schubert’s sentence was reduced to & $250 fine and Scheuring’s to im-' prisonment for a year and a day. The charges against the two men were virtyally the same and both cases yesterday Judgé Dyer had befor an application for a modification in sentence filed by Schubert’s attor- ney, Chase Morsey, but did not have an appeal in behalf of Schuering. His action in reducing Scheuring’s him-+ ! sentence was taken on his own in- Petition Cites Wife’s Illness. itiatfve. Morsey also was Scheur- | ing’s attorney. Judge Dyer reduced the penalty | after he had noted a physician’s cer- | tificate showing that Schubert’s wife | was a sufferer from heart disease | and that his youngest son was in a} serious condition from inflammatory rheumatism. Judge Dyer had also read a petition signed by 50 of Schu- bert’s neighbors, stating that Schu- bert was 43 years old, born in St. Louis and was descended from par- ents who fought for the Union in the Civil War. | The petition also set forth that Schubert had been president of Naz- areth Evangelical Church, Morgan- | ford road and Tholozan street, and | had devoted proceeds of church | services to the Red Cross. | When the two men were sentenced their attorneys, in statements to the | Court, sought to show that both were | intoxicated and therefore irresponsi- | 4 ana | mle when they committed the of-/ list as being fenses charged against them. “No man should make such re- | marks, whether he lives here or in| any other country,”’ the Judge said in commenting on a statement by Schubert’s attorney that the latter | was born in the United States and | owned a $50 Liberty Bond. “If he’ does live here and was born here the offense is worse.” In discussing Scheuring’s case at the time of sentencing him, Judge | Dyer said: “I don’t care whether this man was drunk or sober. It is such men as these who come from | other countries and make what they can out of being here, performing no | duties as citizens, and when the | country is involved in war they do what they can to cause disloyalty in our military forces. “Some of these men are deep-dyed ‘in treachery and are in the pay of the German Government. Some are not so bad. They are ignorant. This court sees fit to deal wit: heach case individually. Where the case war- rants it, severe penalties will be imposed. , Where a fine will suffice, it will be.levied. Take him away.” Schubert, a carpenter foreman for the Christy Fire Clay Co., was ar- rested in January and indicted. The specific charges against him were that he said: “Wilson should be killed,” and “the Kaiser is a better man than Wilson and should win the war and rule the world.” Scheuring, a salesman, was arrest- ed on a Market street car Jan. 4, after his remarks had caused him to be assaulted by two soldiers. It was alleged that he said: ‘The Kais- | er has 20,000,000: soldiers and will | To hell with the | er in extreme north and east sabe sm: lick everybody. BUY, 13, AILLED BY A BANERY TRUCK Harold Hart’s Death 19th Aute- mobile Fatality in St. Louis Since Jan. 1. Harold Hart, 13 years old, of 3642. Salena street, was run down and killed at Broadway and Salena street at 8:45 a. m. today by a bakery truck driven by George L. Quigley of 4423 Labadie avenue. His death was the nineteenth auto fatality in St. Lous since Jan. 1. In the corresponding P@riod last year there were nine fatalities. The boy was crossing Broadway: and ran from behind a brewery truck and in front of Quigley’s machine. A city fireman took him in an automo- bile to the Lutheran Hospital, where it was found he was dead. Quigley was arrested. He said he did not see the boy in time to stop. The same truck, driven by Quigley, struck and derailed a Tow- ‘by the — ery Co. = a Child’s Skull Fractured by Motor Truck. Anna Licavoli, 5 years 1006 North Seventh street, was knocked down in front of her home last evening by a motor truck driven by Arthur Nesbitt, 18 years old, of 3917 Washington boulevard. Her skull was fractured and she was cut about the body and face®. Nes- bitt was arrested. An automobile driven by Miss Katherine McKenna of 4710 Ham- mett place, was hit by a Page care at Nineteenth street and Washington avenue. The five occupants were dumped out, but none was hurt.

Sinara re PLAN TONAKE LIGGETT & MYERS STRIKE COMPLETE Union Tobacco Workers Ask for 500 Pickets at Plants at 6 A. M. Tomorrow. 28 ON DUTY THIS MORNING Appeals to Be Made to Employes Still at Factories on Nearby Streets. Striking tobacco workers of the Liggett & Myers Co.’s three facto- ries at Tower Grove and Folsom ave- nues, will try tomorrow morning to cause the complete shutting down of the pHint. This was announced to- day, after pickets had reported that of the 3500 factory employes only | about 200 went to work this morn- ing and that most of these were women employed at the task of stemming, and unable to mi celia English. The strike, for an eight- ery day, increased pay and-.recognition of the union, began yesterday. Instead of the 28 pickets who were on duty today, the strike leaders asked for 500 pickets, including 30 to 50 women, to take up positions at 6 a. m. tomorrow on Park avenue and other streets commanding the arnroaches to the plant. No Mediation Effort Announced, Whether so large a number of pickets can work without friction with the police, as the present pick- eting force has done, is a matter for speculation. Only 12 policemen have been on duty along the picket line, and these have found no occasion to make arrests. Reports that the company was pre- paring to employ strike breakers were circulated today among the strikers, who gathered at the union headquarters, Park and Compton av- enues. Officials of the company would s&y nothing about this or any other phase of tHe strike. No movement toward mediation of the strike has yet been announced, At the meeting at which the strike was voted, Saturday afternoon, An- | t tind en Anan Cinginnad. asked to send a Federal mediator here. Meeting of Forcigners. Meetings were held last night for the purpose of explaining the strike to workers who do not understand English, and who were at work yes- terday. Speeches were made in Ital- ian and Polish, and James Hilton, président of the local union, said that 98 Italians were added to the union’s roll, which now, he said, contains between 2500 and 2600 names. Mc; Andrew says the St. Louis striking tobacco workers number more than the previous enrollment in the in- ternational union from all other places. The strike leaders believe the Liggett & Myers Co. is planning a prolonged fight against the union. This belief is based on the, report given by the employes’ Grievance Committee of its visit to E. T. No- land Jr., manager of the company, last Thursday. The chairman of the committee related, at last Saturday's meeting, that Noland said he had nothing to offer the employes, and talked of a fight to the finish. The vote for a strike was taken after this report. Strike at Another Plant Settied. Noland, in a statement yesterday, denied some of the statements at- tributed to him, but did not show any readiness to make terms with the strikers. A strike of 30 twistmakers of the Christian Peper Tobacco Co., 70B North Main street, has been settled, the men having agreed to return to work tomorrow. International Pres- ident McAndrew said the settlement was on a basis of recognition of the union. Elmer C. Peper, vice presi- dent of the company, said the com- pany did not deny its employes the right to join a union, and had never done so. a Strike at the Fairbank Soay-Making Piant. Employes of the N. K. Fairbank Co., a soap manufacturing ‘plant at Third and Convent streets, walked out on strike yesterday and today. It was stated at the company’s of- fice that approximately all the em- ployes had quit work by this morn- ing, the total number being about 150. Demands on the company had been made, it was stated, but in- formation as to what the demands were was refused. Machinists and Envelope Makers Strike at Cupples Plant. Machinists and envelope makers at the Samuel Cupples Envelope Co.. Sixth and Cerre streets, went on strike this morning for recognition of the union and 10 per cent in- crease in wages. The management announced that 41 of 175 men em- ployes walked out. Edward Moer- lein, leader of the strikers, said that 50 men were out and that 260 girls “Continued om Page 2, Colamn 2.

WASHINGTON, March 12 time of the second draft. \ ~ (By A. P.).—Provost Marshal- Generad Crowder today made the first official announcement of the It will be ordered as soon as Congress amends the law to compute the basis of apportionment among »states on the number of registrants in Class 1, instead of popula- tion. For the purpose of computation 800,000 men will be cun- sidered as composing the second draft, although no such number will be called to the colors at any one time, 7, Men in deferred tions, the Provost Marshal-General == announced, would be called in small numbers, as well as men in | Class 1, for the purpose of utilizing special technical withdrawal of great numbers of men from industry and agriculture during the coming summer, but that they will be drawn in relatively small groups, spread throughout the year. To give exact numbers, he says, would-be to give the enemy military information. While Gen. Crowder sets no time in his statement, it has been stated previously that supplies and equip- ment for the men of the second draft would become .available in April and action on the desirefi leg- islation is expected before that time, the first calls are expected soon aft- erwards. Statement by Gen. Crowder. “The next national quota will be announced and apportioned among the several states as soon as pend- ing legislation authorizing a change in the basis of computation is en- acted by Congress,”’ says the Provost Marshal-General’s statement. “The number that will be assumed as a basis for computation will be 800,000 which is well within the authoriza- tion of Clause 4 Section 1 of the selective act of a second increment of 500,000 men, increaged by § the recruit training units authorized by Clause 5 of said Section 1 and by the special and technical troops authorized by Section 2 of said act. It cannot now be announced what the total number to be called to the colors each month will be, but it may be stated that no more men will be called than. can be properly ac- commodated and promptly assimi- lated. “There are difficulties confront- ing the nation in the supply of la- bor appurtenant to agriculture. Class 1, from which new levies are to be withdrawn, will contain many more than are at present required for the army. It would be a most unscientific and fatuous step if the men in class 1 were called indis- criminately, without regard to the labor situation in agriculture. There- fore the local boards will be direct- ed to fill their quotas in the order of liability of men in class 1 as de- termined by the national drawing. except that, where it is shown that a registrant is completely and assid- uously engaged in the planting, cul- tivation or reaping of a crop, his call to the colors shall be deferred to the foot of the quota of his board as long as he continues to be so en- gaged. . . tions or an them to schools to pf ont ~om ai ali fic . a G Ps ea yma sees —_ and County at 6000 HAIRMAN SPENCER of the . District Appeals Board, when informed this after- noon that 800,000 men are to be called in the second draft, said it was likely that the quota for St. Louis and St. Louis Gounty Would be approximately 6000 men. He based this estimate on the quota of the city and county in the firet draft, which was 4337, or 25 per cent o fthe men summoned from Missouri. 7 Of the 1170 mén which Mis- sourl today was asked to fur- nish as its quota of 96,000 drafted men who will begin de- parting March 29, St. Louis and. St. Louis County probably will be asked to furnish 26 per cent, . or 292 men. | At the office of Lieutenant- Colonel McCord, .at Jefferson City, it was stated that the call for 1170 men is a special call, having no reference to the first call, for which St. Louis and Missouri have furnished their full quota, or about 16,000 men. It is probable, but not certain, that the men in this special call will be credited on the second general call. colors, to the men so greatly needed in the production of this year’s crop. “This is not, however, the only of 1918. | “There is now pending _ before Congress a bill the Sec- retary of War to grant with or without pay, to men in the atl weds E if ; . i if HE EDA RMR, SNE pe PRN a POLED ay tl Se ae a st Ae as i 4. }

Our casualties were light. The artillery was active on both sides during the night southeast of Ar- mentieres and east and northeast of Ypres.”’ The report from Field Marshall Haig last night said: “It must be emphasized that this is a war of mechanics.

Three Ways to Get Skilled Men. “The necessary numbers of such skilled men will be obtained in one of three ways: “First, men already in the military service who have such special skill bard has not been at his home or his office here since last Wednesday, when he departed saying he was go- ing to St. Louis on business. Police- men sent from here have been un- able to find him and his wife says she has not heard of him since his departure. The discovery of the discrepancy in Lombard’s accounts was made through a recent audit of his books and a comparison 6f the entries with reports which he had made from time to time to the City Council. Reports Said to Be Erroneous. Investigation, according to Prose- cuting Attorney Meredith, showed that, except in one instance, :there was no falsffication of the books of the collector’s office, but that the cording to a Reuter @ Shanghai carrying ) under date of March § The Government, sai@ would take the utmost caution in dealing with™ tous situation.” Another dispatch c Tokio through the same oh that Foreign Minister plying to a question in clared that no request ¢ be sent to Siberia had bes from Japan's allies. 4 views, he said, was pro The opposition leader sending of treops but exp fear that the presence in Siberia might drive Ri Germany. unless the greate tion were taken. meee Be ‘. ee = . == he e * et | B; sok A Staff Correspondent ¢ - HEADQUARTERS OF © RAINE FRONT, Mareh 10, a aii — rarigrd jan pg eee Woah SOAR tenes HH woet wee The message was sent to the Amer-| «io)}9wing a heavy bombardment | will be taken from the line regiments| reports made to the City Council) Anti-Rolsheviki I x t important offensive act form himself of all the facts et ee h ape ican consul at Moscow for delivery/ 4 our trenches in the neighborhood | and assigned to the staff organiza-| were erroneous in their statement of Retreats Into aed “ | : raiders swooped down on the town to the Congress which convenes today tions and departments where their|the amounts which Lombard was HARBIN, Manchuria = ferces our infantry, ogeupyi Although relatives of soldiers men- tioned in the casualties lists are noti- fied directly by the War Department the names with home addresses wil! stimulate community patriotism and serve many useful purposes. Op- ‘ posed to this is the contention that the old plan gives information to the enemy. It is possible that a suggested plan of issuing the casualty lists twice a month, or once a week, might make it pogsible to give home ad- dresses of troops, because the in- formation might then be so old as to be valueless to the enemy. Two casualty lists issued yes- terday by Adjutant-General McCain contained a total of 90 names, six less than were contained in the two lists issued Saturday. They showed: One Lieutenant and 31 men killed im action. Five men severely wounded. Two Lieutenants and 26 men Slightly wounded. Five men dead from wounds. One Lieutenant and three men ' Thirteen men dead from diseases. Three men previously listed as missing now reported as prisoners in Germany. !

WASHINGTON, March 12 (By A. }?’.).—Charges of gross extravagance in the management of the affairs of the Food Administration were made in the Senate today by Senator Reed of Missouri, who demanded that Food Administrator Hoover give an accounting of the department’s finances. Pes. ~ i The charges were made after the Missouri Senator had asked that the appropriation of $1,750,000 for the food and fuel administrations be eliminated from the urgent deficiency bill. OKLAHOMA'S TWO-CENT FARE I$ PERMANENTLY ENJOINED OKLAHOMA CITY, Ok., March 12 (By A. P.).—The two-cent pas- senger rate provision of the Okla- homa State Constitution was per- manently enjoined today in an opin- of Arkansas. An order issued by the Oklahoma State Corporation Commission in which the commission took jurisdic- tion over freight and passenger rates within the State also was.en- joined permanently. The case has to pass judgment on the German peace terms accepted by the Bolshe- viki. Although the United States tives, speaks for a considerable part of the Russian people. Indicates Attitude of U. S. The President’s m@§sage of sym- pathy is taken to indicate the pur- pose of the United. States to dis- regard the hard terms the Central Powers have forced on the Russians and demand a far different account- ing whenever victory shall have been achieved by the allies. The President does not urge the Soviets to reject the peace treaty, though the delivery of his--message at this time may be interpreted as suggesting such a course. In fact, it is conceded in official circles that there is scant ground for hope that the Congress and what remains of a Government in Russia will refuse to . give approval to the German terms. Trotzky, the. Bolsheviki Foreign Minister, has resigned, and from Lenine, the Premier, who ap- parently controls the regime, noth- ing is expected. But. there seems to be sstill a strong belief here that difficulty for Germany in the east by no means is ended; that as the humiliating na- ture of the Teutonic terms begins to itself there will be a new uprising that will make itself felt. Hope of Russian Resistance. Whether or not anything’ re- sembling a strong central Govern- ment, capable of making organized of Armentieres, the enemy this morn- ing thrice raided our posts in this sector. In one locality the raiders were driven off, in the Ather two the “This morning the enemy attempt- ed a raid on a large scale in the Ypres sector. Parties of hostile in- fantry attacked our line northwest of Passchendaele on a front of 1000 yards. They were repulsed with heavy losses; we secured a few pris- oners. “During the night one of our po- sitions south of Houtholst forest was entered by a hostile raiding party, but it was immediately recaptured. Four of our men are missing.” British Make Another Advance in Palestine; Operations Continue. LONDON, March 12 (By A. P.).— Another advance in Palestine by the British troops is officially reported, a forward movement of about a mile and three-quarters on a front of 12 miles having been made on Saturday and Sunday. The text of the state- ment says: “On Saturday night and Sunday our northward advance astride the Jerusalem-Nabulus road continued through a most precipitous and dif- ficult country in the face of obstinate resistance by the enemy, who em- ployed numerous machine guns from ridges overlooking the north bank of the Wadi El Jeb being secured and three counter attacks launched against the important sector of these ridges between Sheikh Sales and Burj El Lissneh, east of the road, be- skill is needed. ‘Second, men classified by the se- lection boards, even though they may industries of the nations for special service in staff corps and depart- ments. “Third, young men of draft age with certain educational qualifica- tions will be inducted into the service and sent to universities, colleges and technical and secondary schools to be instructed in technical arts until they have acquired such proficiency as will justify their assignment to the special units that are being organ- ized in considerable numbers. “In accordance with this plan, the Provost Marshal-General has already called upon the states for some 10,- 000 skilled artisans, and will shortly call upon the states for 10,000 young men, graduates of grammar schools, who will be sent before the first of April to various teehnical and other schools throughout the United States for a two months’ course of train- ing. Regularly thereafter an in- creasing stream of selected men will be sent through educational and oth- er training instructions for this pur- pose. No Hampering of Industry. “To sum up, it may be said that there will be no sudden withdrawal men will be drawn. in relatively small groups throughout the year in such a way as to create the least possible interference with industry and agri- culture. “Men in deferred classes as well! as men in class 1 will be selected in supposed to have turned over to va- rious funds out of the city collec- tions. credit. An examination of the books is said to show that in Lombard’s first term, which began in 1915, there oc- curred a discrepancy of about $10,- 000 in the waterworks fund which was under his control. It is alleged in the complaint that in his second term, after his re-elec- tion in April, 1917, he secretly with- held money from his collections to make up the shortage in the water- works account. Bond Only $2500. In his books no tracé can be found of $902 collected in 1916 on railroad, telephone and telegraph taxes. This is@the only discrepancy thus far found in the books, though many are said to have been found in the re- ports made to the Council. On the present showing of the audit it is considered likely that the apparent shortage of the city funds cannot be covered by Lombard’s bond. In his first term this bond was $10,000, but for his second term it was reduced to $2500. The first term bondsmen are still responsible as sureties for any shortages which occurred between April, 1915, and Lombard’s arrest. The City Council also will offer a reward if Lombard still is absent next Monday, the regu- lar meeting day. —_ His collections in the last two (By A.

WIFE TELLS HOW TEARS. SOOTHED FRED |. HERZOG She Testifies in Her Divorce Suit She Learned Their Effect on Honeymoon. —$—— ‘ ‘HE BECAME HYSTERICAL’ Thing He Liked to See Her Do, She Says. 7 Mrs. Helen H. Herzog of Tarry- | town, N. Y., testifying yesterday in | Judge Taylor’s court in her divorce suit against Fred J. Herzog of 4251 Lindell boulevard, treasurer of the L. Herzog & Bro. Dry Goods Co., 1204 Washington avenue, said that she found that when she cried it had a soothing effect upon her husband. She first noticed it when they were |on their honeymoon in _ Atlantic |City. His drinking of liquor caused | him to beconie hysterical and at such times it was hard to control him, she said. During one such instance at At- lantic City, Mrs. Herzog said, she burst into tears, although she was not easily moved to them, and im- remarked that crying was the one thing he liked to see her do—that it was an indication she was becoming submissive, Gave Up $150 Weekly Alimony. The Herzogs were married in New York, Nov. 17, 1916, and separated March 26, 1917. Each had been married before. Mrs. Herzog was _the divorced wife of Herbert Kauf- man of New York, a magazine writ- er, who was paying $150 a week ali- mony to her. She told how she had to abandon the alimony and also sur- ‘render a $100,000 insurance on the life of her first husband when she married Herzog. She said that Her- zog knew she would have to make the sacrifice. She also testified that she and Herzog became acquainted at the Manhattan Hotel in New York Oct. 21, 1916, that he proposed marriage to her the next day and that a week later he gave her an engagement ring. Her first experience with Her- zog’s alleged tendency to drink liquor was in New York, when, in celebration of the, engagement, he drank highballs and screamed and cried on the street, which she did not like. She said he calmed down be- fore he started for St. Louis Nov. 1, telling her he would return Nov. Rentielead Crying Was the One! mediately Herzog quieted down. He’ ‘ Wrote to Her Dally. , After Herzog got back to St. Louls he wrote to her daily and deciared he wanted to advance the date of the wedding. she said she was surprised when = received a tele- gram from him telling her to disre- next day. He explained that his In- sane love for her had given him no rest and that the letter had been written after walking the floor all night. The tetter suggested that the en- gagement be broken because of gos- sip Herzog said he had heard to the effect that she was financially in- volved. She disregarded the letter, as the telegram requested, and the day he st&rted for New York he telegraphed her his deepest love. Telegrams and letters that passed between the two during this period were read to thej/Court by Mrs. Her- zog. s | ._ Mrs. Herzog complained that aft- er her, husband brought her to St. em did not provide a home for her, but took her to the home of his parents, where she and Herzog were given a room on the third floor. She said everything contributed to make things disagreeable for her during her stay there—that the house was not kept warm, the tem- perature of her room was usually around 42, she said; she had trouble about her laundry and she could not get along with her husband's moth- er. The latter, the plaintiff said, even objected to her asking the fur- nace man to shovel a little more coal in the furnace. She said it was so frigid in her room that she had to dart to a room where there was heat to dress and that the family usually sat around the house wear- ing coats or sweaters. Allowed $20 a Week. - “One very objectionable thing my mother-in-law did was to tell my friends I was either not at home or had refused to go to the telephone when I was called,” the plaintiff said. When she complained to her husband he replied that his first wife had always gotten along with his mother, the witness said. The wife also said that her \yhus- band allowed her $20 a week and that she was forced to practice strict economy, such as cleaning her own gloves, something she was not ac- customed to do before. Mrs. Herzog offered in evidence today a letter written to her by Her- zog before they were married, in which he promised to provide a home for her, but said they would have to experiment awhile until she got used to the way of living in St. Louis. —~ Before the separation they were living at the Buckingham Hotel, she said, and the night before the sepa- ration he told her how economical his first wife had been. Mrs. Her- zog told him his first wife was a martyr, and so was his second wife, she said, and he became enr&ged and threatened her and shg called the police station and told spmeone there that if anything happened to itt | ' ona es CTC TT Onis gard the letter she would get the) : = e LEA:PERRINS SAUCE WORCESTERSHIRE, THE ORIGINAL — ; It has a tang, all its own, from the great silk mills of America and will be arranged in all their glory in our main floor silk section for:tomorrow.

Strikes for Recognition of Unions and Higher Pay Involve 5000 to 7000 , Chernical Plants ‘Numbers Are Out From ©Depattment and Gtocety Stores, Tobacco Munitions and and Matiy From Hardwate Concern. Betweén 5000 and 7500*workers in St. Lotiis industrial and commercial establishments are on strike, as a re+ sult of .the general unionization movement, which began here several weeks ago. This movement re- ceived its greatest stimulus from the success of the street car motormen and conductors in obtaining ‘ecog- nition of their union, early in’ Feb- ruary, after a six-day strike. The only figures obtainable on the number of strikers have come from union officers and organizers. Employers have, in. nearly every case, refused to make any estimate of the number’ who have quit work, although they have usually said that the union men’s figures were exag- gerated. Sumitary of Union Estimates. Following .the union men’s figures for the most part, with modifica- tiofs in some instances, the number on strike in diffetent lines appears to be approximately: Tobaced workers, Liggett @& My- ers factory, 3000; munition and elec- trical machinery makers, Wagner Blectric Co.,- 2800; department store clerks, six stores, 750; -chemical workers, Mallinckrodt Chemical Co., 600; grocery clerks, Kroger stores. 200;, employes Simmons Hardware Co., 200. Of the strikers, one-fourth to one-third are women. ‘Of these strikers, the department store employes are the only onés who have been in formal conference with their employers. This confer- énce, held yesterday afternoon, was without. result. The chief demand presented by the strikers, at the con- ference, was for reinstatement with- out prejudice, a promise which the store heads would not make as to all the strikers. x Only Two Groups Submit Demands. Of the different groups of strikers, the department~store clerks and the tobatco workers are the only ones who. formally submitted demands to their employers before quitting work. In the other cases, the employes walked out, after charging that fel- low employes had been discharged for entering into the union move- ment, The strike of union tobacco work- ers of the Liggett & Myers Tobacco Co. for anion recognition, an eight- -‘hour day and wage increases of 25 ‘to 100@per Cent, began yesterday.

The walkout Wednesday began, according to the strikers, after men had beeh discharged in the punch shop for attending a union meeting Tuesday night. At a meeting Thurs- day; a committee was named to for- mulate demands, and these demands were approved at a meeting Friday night and wére submitted by a com- mittee Saturday. The demands are for a wage scale of 22 to 80 cents an hour, in place of what the strikers say is now 12 to 14 cents for girls, and 22 to 35 cents for men; for 48 working hours urday half-holiday; for time chases, and for a medical first-aid Systém, in place of the present Mu- tual Aid Association. mous & Barr, Scruggs, Vandervoort following the refusal of the store heads to promise that they would ne- gotiate with their union, the Retail sociation, as to demarfids for wage in- creases. my ' * 4 . _—> > ; ; ”~ ' 7 ere a eepsi4 the Sol homesic at eis “ q - ‘ * — ' ; : ; * . * »” Ras : . . ts le Be P . e 9 — = ~ ; et iss Ee, ae ) > > : ’ {ee py 4 4 : . ae 3 * ' ie * *~ : .

He admitted that such activity was not in strict accord with the purposes of the organization as set out in its charter. Denies Unpatriotic Work. The alliance’s vice president de- | nied personal activity in any un- | patriotic work and said that if the| organization is furthering any propa- ganda to foster a permanent Ger- | manizing of immigrants, or doing | other unpatriotic acts, the charter | should be revoked. “T have two sons in the army and I am proud of my service badge,”’ said the witness, adding that all of | his children bought Liberty Bonds | and are members of the American | Red Cross. At the iast meeting of | the city alliance in Indiapolis, he. said, $100 was subscribed to the Red. Cross, and that the alliance recently arranged to purchase $700 in Lib- erty bonds. / Senator King of Utah, author of the bill to revoke the alliance’s char- ter, called the witness’ attention to a text-book said to be used in the schools of Indianapolis, and in which it is said that the Kaiser's name is the only one appearing in that book as being worthy of the world’s esteem.

Assimilation of the congregation of Immanuel Presbyterian Church, Newstead avenue and Penrose street, by some other church was postponed yesterday at a meeting of the St. Louis Presbytery, although the re- port of a committee appointed to in- vestigate the affairs of the church advised such action. The report recommended that the unfinished church be sold and the congegation reorganized as a mis- sion of some neighboring church. The Rev. John W. Maclvor, chair- man of the investigating body, stated in his' report, that although the church has been long established, only a small percentage of families remain in its congregation to bear the burden of the church debt. Com- pletion of the present church build- ing was impossible at this time, he stated, owing to the prohibitive cost of building materials. MRS, BUSCH TO SAIL THIS WEEK Brewer’s Widow to Depart for U. S. at Spanish Port. A cablegram from Paris yesterday informed St. Louis relatives that Mrs. Lily Busch, widow of Adolphus Busch, brewer, would. sail from Spain some day this week, accom- panied by Harry B. Hawes, attorney for her son, August A. Busch, presi- dent of the Anheuser-Busch Brew- ing Co. Hawes went to Switzerland several months ago with passports authoriz- ing him to bring Mrs. Busch back’ to the United States. She was in Ger- many when the war started and re- mained there until recently. Upon her return an effort will be made to release her income from her one-eighth interest in the Busch estate. The income is now in the hands of A. Mitchell Palmer, cus- todian of alien property. Carnations Wednesday Only 25c ‘per daz. Grimm & Gorly.—ADV A | ed; fast edges, ‘boMers do not match.

WASHINGTON, March 12 (By A P.).—Legislation providing for the sale of enemy property in the United States is a step nearer completion to- day as a result of the Senate’s ap- proval yesterday of amendments to the urgent deficiency appropriation bill. ate authorize disposal of property in this country held by Germans in Ger- many, as requested by. Alien Proper- ty Custodian Palmer, and als@ em- powWer the President to acquire title to the Hoboken piers of the North German Lloyd and Hamburg-Amer- ican steamship lines. Prompt approval of both provi- sions by the House is expected as soon as the Senate finally disposes of the $2,000,000,000 deficiency bill and sends the measure back to the House. Vote Is Unanimous. The vote on the provision for sdle of enemy property was unanimous, 64 to 0, and came after several hours’ scathing denunciation of German kultur and intrigues for world dom- ination. Enemy property, within the mean- ing of the law, is property owned in an enemy Country, and official assur- ances have been given there is no in- tention to interfere with the prop- erty or money of Germans or Aus- trians living in this country. The purpose is to sever forever the hold of Germans in Germany upon vast commercial and industrial enter- prises in the United States which have been closely connected with the Kaiser’s Government, serving as out- posts of the Teutonic movement for world dominion. Under the trading with the enemy act: the alien property custodian takes possession of and adminis- trates these properties, but is with- out authority to finally dispose of them. The new legislation will em- power him to place them in Amer- ican hands. Treaty of 1799 Involved. Virtually the only questions raised in the debate were the possibility of violating the treaty of 1799 betweer Prussia and the Untted States, and of too hasty action by Congress. Before the Senate Democratic Leader Martin presented a memoran- dum from the State Department's le- gal bureau declaring that the 1799 treaty was not regarded as applica- ble. What is to be done with the pro- ceeds of the sale of German interests which some Senators today suggest- ed are owned in part by Emperor William himself is a policy to be de- termined later. In making this clear Senator Martin vehemently declared that he believed personally that Ger- | many should not receive $1 until she compensates Americans for property illegally destroyed. “Speaking for myself, and, I think, the American people,” said the Sen- |}ator, “if the German people ever get 'any compensation, it will be after 'they have compensated the American people for the millions—I would even say billions—of dollars’ worth of _property they have ruthlessly de- | stroyed.”’ Suggests German Accounting First. | Quoting from statement | Mitchell Palmer, the Alien Property | Custodian, when he appeared before ‘the Appropriations Committee, Sen- |}ator Martin said many of the Ger- |man owners had returned to Ger- |many and now are waging war on this country. | “It is inconceivable,” he added, “if | we are to make any accounting that 'it shall be made without an acount- |ing from Germany for the destruc- | tom made of property ot American citizens. God forbid that I should | protect interests of the German peo- ple any more than I am compelled ' to.’ That Germany regards the 1799 treaty as “a mere scrap of paper” iw as asserted by Senator Undefwood of Alabama, who said the treaty does | not interfere with the sale of German | | property proposed. “Let the junker know that Ameri- | ca is fighting in earnest,” said Un- | derwood.- “It is entirely probable | that the German Emperor himself holding the names of other persons, owns a large part of the property in- volved.” Stone Explains Plea for Delay. Senator Stone of Missouri, chair- man of the Foreign Relations Com- mittee, said that examination of the treaty of 1799 and various authori- ties on international law convinced him that the amendment authoriz- ing the sale of enemy property was proper. He said his purpose in asking that consideration of the amendment when called up last Saturday be postponed was to per- mit him to make this inquiry, for if the amendment confliéted with the treaty he did not think the Unit- ed States “should follow the bad ex- ample in the treatment of our ob- ligations as scraps of paper.” “The proud thgng in our history is the fact that the United States ad- heres, even if it might be to its great disadvantage, to its solemn faith and pledge,”” Senator Stone added. “I wanted to look into this matter. As a result of my investi- gations I concluded that this legis- lation was proper and hence was , taking no part in the discussion.” In urging his amendment previd- ing for public auction sales of enemy | property, prohibiting private nego- tiations, Senator Freelinghuysen said his purpose was to pRvtect American minority stock interests in German- | trouble, nervousness, constipation, diz- Amendments adopted bys the Sen- | ziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders of A. | | owned corporations. He also urged that the alien property custodian’s act should be subject to review. Senator Martin opposed the amend- ment, which is subject to a final vote, on the ground that it might handicap Palmer’s action. IF BACK HURTS BEGIN ON SALTS Flush your kidneys occasionally | if you eat meat regularly. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver comé from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for genera-” tions to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids so they no longer cause irritation, thus ending bladder disorders, Jad Salts is inexpensive and can- not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.—ADYV. ae Positively Ef fective | The 3 Bran {| & Food j{< You’ll S Enjoy \* Avoid medicines.

Mrs. Stella Stone, 32 years old, of 1927 Park avenue, wife of Robert Stone, a mail clerk, drank a liquid disinfectant containing poison, Mrs. Lucy Klemme, 35 years old, of 1216 Benton street, took an over- |. dose of medicine. NOT A BITE OF BREAKFAST UNTIL YOU DRINK WATER Says a Glass of hot water and phosphate prevents illness and keeps us fit. Just as coal when it burns leaves behind a certain amount of incom- bustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal a certain amount of indigestible ma- terial, which if not completely elim- inated from the system each day, be- comes food for the millions of bac- terin which infest the bowels. From this mass of left-over waste, toxins and ptomaine-like poisons are formed and sucked into the Liood. Men and women who can’t get feeling right must begin to take in- side baths. Before eating breakfast each morving drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime- stone phosphate in it to wash out of the bowels the previous day’s ac- cumulation of poisons and toxins and to keep the entire alimentary canal clean, pure and fresh. Those who are subject to sick headache, colds, biliousness, consti. pation, others who wake up with bad taste, foul breath, backache, rheu- matic stiffness, or have a sour, gassy stomach after meals, are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone eee from the drug store, and gin practicing internal sanitation. This will cost very little, but is suf. ficient to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.

Winfield Scott Chaplin, 71 years old, of 432 Henderson road, Clayton, former chancellor of Washington University, died of hardening of the arteries at 2:20 a. m. today at Barnes Hospital, where he had ben a patient for several weeks. He had been ill nearly a year. Prof. Chaplin served as chancellor at Washington University for more than 16 years retiring in 1907. Fol- lowing his resignation he went to San Antonio, where he lived until a year ago. He then returned to St. Louis. Prof. Chaplin was born in Glen- burn, Me., in 1847. He entered West Point in 1866 and after his gradua- tion became a Lieutenant in the Fifth Field Artillery. He remained in the military service several years, resigning to practice his profession las a civil engineer. In 1874 he ac- ‘cepted the chair of mathematics in the Maine State College. In 1877 Prof. Chaplin was offered the vrofessorship of engineering in the Imperial University at Tokio, Japan. He accepted it and remained there six years. He returned to the United States in 1883 to accept a sim- ilar appointment in the engineering department of Union College, Sche- nectady, N. Y. From there‘he went to Harvard as Professor of Engineer- ing and Dean of the Lawrence Scien- tific School. He remained at Harvard for five years until 1891, when he came to St. Louis to accept the chancellor- ship of Washington University. Dur- ing his administration the university was moved to its present site. He was succeeded by Marshall 8S. Snow, then dean. Chancellor Snow was lat- er succeeded by David F. Houston, now Secretary of Agriculture. The present Chancellor is Frederic A. Hall. . Prof, Chaplin is survived by his widow, two daughters and one son, Trescott F. Chaplin, an attorney. Funeral services will be held at 2 p. m. tomorrow in Graham Memorial Chapel at Washington University. “CHASERS” BECOME HEADLINERS OF WEEK'S ORPHEUM PROGRAM Clark and Hamilton’s Act Declared to Make it Worth While to Sit Threugh Seven Inferior Ones.

Miss Hamilton proved to be a dainty and winsome foil for hig fool- ishness. The act would be improved if the latter part were shortened. It was not Wilton Lackaye’s fault that he-did not appear at his best in a short sketch “The Ferret,” for he had little to do, and that in repres- sion. Lackaye portrays the part of & wronged husba&&d whose former wife, at one time in her career a blackmailer, has later married a man of wealth. It is Lackaye’s mis- sion to prove to him her unworthi- ness, which he does with hardly a thrill, but to the accompaniment of many heroics on the part of the hus- band. Dorothy and Madeline Cameron are good to look upon and dance gracefully, but their act is rather marred by the too vigorous manner in which their pianist assaults his instrument. Other acts on the bill are the Garcinetti Brothers, novelty hat throwers; Lillian Gonne and Bert Albert, in a fragment out of “School Days;’’ Bennett and Richards in blackface; Lydia Barry, who con- fesses she has been “seven thousand years in vaudeville,” and Milo, none other than the tramp monologuist and imitator whose work is familiar to vaudeville patrons.

It required no terrific punishment to put Cowler down and twice, al- though he was scarcely touched by Fulton, he went to the floor for the count. The last blow was NOT foul. It was delivered near a neutral corner while Cowler was rising from the floor after the count. Hé was on his feet, but hardly in fighting position when Fulton spilled him again. At that it was not a hard blow, its force having been “pulled’’ by Fulton, who caught himself, fearing too late that he might deliver a foul punch. Althéugh the blow could not be called illegal, the referee shold have compellei Fulton to step back while he éounted over Cowlef, thus avoiding mistakes due to excitément or eagerness. .

Fulton had the better of this round and seemed to be Slowly coming back, It was plain that Fulton thought Cowler was “all in,” from the way he rushed him at the sound of the gong. He swung and landed mightily oh the celebrated Cowler jaw, which, if there was anything “glass” ‘about it, absolutely refused to crack. Ful- ton hit it many times; but Cowler though shaken badly, came crowding back for more. tried to finish him, but missed wildly. Cowler sank to the floor untouched: he rose after the nine count and lurched across Fulton, who was vainly connect with his enemy’s jaw. Again Cowler sank to the floor, While Sul- livan stood over him swinging his arm like a pendulum as he tolled off the seconde. Blank-eéyed, but con- ‘scious, Cowler watched the motions ‘and at the count of nine Was rising. Hie had hardly reached his feet when Fulton, who had most over his foé@, rushed in swung at him before his guard was éven up. cused of fouling his opponent Fulton too late tried to hdéld back the blow, which, however, landed lightly, and sent the limp Cowler down for good. The crowd madly yelled “foul foul!” while Sullivan, for the last time tolled off the count. Cowler was still prostrate at 10 and had lost his. geteatest chatice in life. The well-known pandemonium reigned in the ring while Cowler was being dragged to his corner. ler’s maftiager, Jack Bul@er, tried to claim foul, but all the experts agreed that Cowler Was on his feet at his own peril. Over in Fulton’s corner the white- | faced little man of the first round wore a relieved look. jhis man, after a knockout had been 26 neat, meant at least $100,000 to him, he estimated. ———--@- -——!

Last night these opinions swerved as the course of a Kaneas cyclone, Men who, before the bout, had pre- | dicted Fulton would stop Willard, “hedged,” then as quickly reversed ‘to first thought. These persone, or a majority of them, conceded that con- dition, or lack of it, decided the bout. In the dressing rooms of the two fighters, this theory Was even more vividly demonstrated. Fulton, acarce- ly marked, impressed one as having @reat reserve power, yet unspent. Cowler, bruised ang battered about the shoulders and head, was exhaust- ed, breathing heavily, the while his waist line churning as Lake Michigan On a Windy day. ° 4 et ea tit —o |Wagerers Divided.

Allen D. Albert of Chicago, speak- ing at a Civic League luncheon yes- terday at Hotel Statler, declared that in the neglect of the three princfples that make for great cities—educa- tion, recreation and spiritual devel- _opment—St. Louis remains only an average American city, with “the best municipal government outside the museum.” The reference to the city’ administration, he explained, did not carry any disparagement to any city official, but rather a reflection on the pqpulation which endured such rule. Albert is an army and navy com- missioner on training camp activities and has been a student of civic wel- fare for 20 years. His appearance in St. Louis was in connection with a campaign to refinance and increase the membership of the Civic League. Riches Versus Civic Pride. Residents of St. Louis have en- gaged principally in getting rich to the neglect of the city’s commercial, industrial and social development, Albert declared, while many of the advantages that rightfully belong to St. Louis have been diverted to other cities of more aggressive civic leader- sHip, and the city government has not kept pace with other cities of St. Louis’ rank during the constructive period of American city government development in the last five years. “God intended St. Louis to be on eer ae the cross roads of the richegt terri- tory of the five continents and to have a population of at least 1,500,- C00,” Albert said, “but it is not His fault that St. Louis has not availed itself of its splendid opportunities and advantage of location. “We do not know our own city. The ignorance of the average Amer- ican approaches the sublime only when it comes to a knowledge of his own town, There is no room be- tween St. Louis and New Orleans for any other great city on the western bank of the Mississippi River. Its Agricultural Assets. “The agricultural area of St. Louis territory in the past 10 years was increased by a larger farm area than that which is cultivated in the entire State of New York, and yet nothing was done in that period to assure you that that commercial ad- vantage would flow to St. Louis. Albert said the Sr. Louis death rate was too high. He also said the method of apportioning funds for city administrative departments is not to the best interests of the city. He pointed out that only 30 cents per person per annum was allotted for the Health Department, as c.m- pared with a . sarger ratio in other cities. “The greatest teaching of social science in the last 30 years is that nothing counts—not property titles, not personal possessions, nor Princi- ples of Government, but richness of life for the great body of God’s chil- dren, and the need for’ the Civic League is bound up in that phrase.” In conclusion, Albert said that those cities that will have the as- cendancy after the war will be the ones that have learned the lesson ihat permanent city building is founded on the happiness of the great mass of the people in terms of education, recreation and _§ spiritual environment.

A decision by the Interstate Com- merce Commission on the petition of the Chamber of Commerce fog the removal of the bridge arbitrary may reasonably be expected by June, Joseph W. Folk, counsel of the Chamber, today said to a Post-Dis- patch reporter. The petition will be | filed Thursday. | The East St. Louis Chamber of; Commerce, which has employed an | attorney to oppose the vetition, will | begin a campaign for the retention'| of the arbitrary at a banquet at the Elks’ Club in East St. Louis Thureday | night. R. W. Ropiequet, an attorney, who has been retained by the East Side organization, will speak in re-| ply to recent talks by Folk on the ar- bitrary. Replies to Terminal Man. Folk, in a talk this noon at a luncheon of the Jovians at the American Annex Hotel, replied to statemients made Thursday evening by Herman J. Pfeifer, maintenance- cf-way engineer of the Terminal As- sociation before the Railway Club. “The maintenance of way engineer for the Terminal Association, in an address before the members of the St. Louis Railway Club,” Folk said, | “argued that trunk _ lines receive | about 42% cents per ton for hauling coal to East St. Louis and only about AS TO ARBITRARY, 39% cents per ton for hauling coal ST EMMI Children’s Department, Entire Second a Floor. 618 Washington Ave. Big Feature of Children’s Weel for High in Quality—Perfect in Fit After a close, personal study of the many different lines of Children’s Shoes displayed by the leading manufacturers of the East, this season, we were thoroughly convinced that the “Little Wonder” Play Shoes eclipsed all other makes, and so made arrangements to handle this fa- mous line on a:large scale. “Little Wonder” Play Shoes for little tots are built on foot conform- ing lines; they are made with painstaking care of the finest materials, in lace and button styles, in black calf, vici kid, tan calf, white horse, tan They are attractive, sturdy, dependable shoes horse and patent leather. that assure you the greatest value for your money. a certainty, so we urge you to See This Wonderful Display This Week A Souvenir Free to Every Child Attending UVVNNEAQQQAUUUUTOTUNGAOOUAQUOOOTTUTAAOUUAUU A TOUUAEAOOO UOTE AGATA EET es OTT Children’s Hose in Black, White and Colors.

In arriving at these fig- ures, however, he considers a charge in East St. Louis for delivery along the lines of the Terminal Association, but when he gets to St. Louis he speaks of delivery off the lines of the Terminal Association. His figures therefore are misleading. “The facts are: That when a trunk line delivers coal to the Ter- minal Association in East St. Louis for delivery along the lines of the Terminal Association, the Terminal Association charges 10 cents. per ton, which charge is absorbed by the trunk line out of the East St. Louis rate of 52% cents, ‘eaving) 42% cents for the trunk line where the coal is .delivered in East St. Louis along the line of the Terminal Association. Where the Difference Liécs. “When, however, the coal is to be delivered in St. Louis alonz the lines of the Terminal Association the trunk lines deliver the coal to the Terminal Association at East St. Louis and the Terminal Association charges 20 cents per ton—none of which is absorbed by the trunk line Thus, the trunk line receives 52% cents for coal to be delivered in St. Louis and 42% cents fot coal to be delivered in East St. Louis— both along the lines of the Terminal Association. The trunk line per- forms just the same service where the coal is delivered in St. Louis as where the coal is delivered in East St. Louis. “There is an absorption of 10 cents per ton by the trunk lines where delivery is in East St. Louis along the lines of the Terminal Association and no absorption at all where the delivery is in St. Louis along the lines of the Terminal Association.” PAUL 0.

The Canadian authoritjes at Toronto have im- posed fines and jail sentéhces on seven members of the International Bible Students’ Association for distributing copies of ‘“‘The Finished Mystery,” a book which the court held contained matter “derogatory to Great Britain and her cause in the present war.” It is claimed that 3,000,000 copies of this book have been sold or distributed. It is a work by the late Pastor Russell, which undertakes to ex- plain the meaning of the mystical passages in the Hebrew prophets and the Apocalypse in the light of modern events, especially the war and the increasing power of Socialism. An ex@mination of the books shows that its ef- fect on those who believe in its teachings would be to convert them into pacifists and cause them to look upon the two sides in the present war with equal horror. The followers of Pastor Rus- sell are, in fact, pacifists. They are entitied to their opinions. But through publications of this character they are engaged in a wide propoganda the effect of which, on docile minds, would be to completely muddle them with regard to the ques- tions of right and wrong Involved in the war. | Pastor Russell had a violent and life-long quar- rel with organized religion as represented in the churches. And his books vehemently and vitriol- ically condemn’ both Catholicism and Protestant- ism, which he lumps together under the epithet, “ecclesiasticism.” He blames the war on the failure of the churches, and prophesies, in this book, that all present Governments will go down, with the churches, in a welter of blood. The war is to end, according to him, in a triumph of 8o- clalist revolutions in every land, followed by an- archism. Out of this chaos the little band of Russellites and those who think with them will émerge as the elect. If this is true, what is the use of fighting Ger- many and her allies?

SPEAKING RIGHT OUT. HE Russian situation is clearer to some of us than it is to others, and we are being told that hone of us sees it with absolute clarity. However, we wish to nominate for that possible dis- tinction the Missouri editor who headed his editorial column with this ringing yererenl indictment, which appeared last week: When the truth comes to the light, the world will see that Bolsheviki is doing with Russia just what he contracted with Ger- many to do. Bolsheviki is for Bolsheviki, and cares haught for no one else. He is not an ignorant man. If he was we could ¢6x- cuse his course on that score. No man of in- telligence would honestly do the - foolish things Bolsheviki has done. We have always believed him to be a paid agent of Germany. We like that.

Taos is in northern New Mexico. We all khew it better when we read Kit Carson. It was there this picturesque gentleman lived. Well, here we have it—tlhe Taos painters paint Taos. Taos (rhyme it with mouse, dear reader) with its quaint old Spanish-Indian customs, its beautiful pueblo like obe of our own great West End apartments (only it is art, instead of artifice), and the blue mountains rimming it round. I have never been in Taos, but I once stood on a mountain peak at the headwaters of the Pecos River. and looked down into that limpid vale, the loveliness of which would have inspired someone like Tom Moore to have written some of the worst poetry the world has ever read. However, Taos painted does no such violence to the beauty and charm of Taos. It looks particu- larly lovely at night in one of the pictifres by our own Mr. Berninghaus, a picture of which it has been — said in the East that nothing has carriéd the feel- ing’.of the West about with it better than this pic- ture does. It merely shows an Indian on his pony and leading his pack-horse—all. immersed in the softest of blue moonlight on the desert. Probably Indians have for the most part painted themselves because other people have such a terrible time paint- ing them. The Tsos painters are learning how it is done. Occasionally one sees an Indian in one of their paintings who looks as if he might have been stuffed and set up in a certain place, but there is mighty little of that. The Indian for the most part— look as if the paititer were not within a hundred miles. ; ‘ It is an interesting exhibition—intefesting to us here because we admire Mr. Berninghaus’ work and enjoy this opportunity to compare it with that of the other men in the rolony. If wé said what we think of Mr. Berninghatts as a painter of that part of the West it would sound as if we were trying to boost | home talent—so we won't say it. Irving Couse has three pictures in the exhibit. Of course, Irving’s vogue is something one cannot always understand, but if you ‘know the quaking asp and the way it can slip a spot of bright color into exactly the right place on the side of a moun- tain, you' can get very chumting with some of the things Irving does. Prof. No-Point McGee said he went down into the Southwest once in a while to enjoy his vision where there was 15 per cent more light than we have up here. One sees that 15 per cent plus in a picture by Victor Higgins. He let daylight through it. It is alive—real light going somewhere—though not, unfortunately, to some of the pictures which need it most. It is a trick the Taos painters have of getting that light into tlreir pictures. The whole show is luminous with it. A good show—and Amer- ican as few exhibitions of paintings can be Anier- ican. As big as this country is, there are not many spots in it just like Taos. ba] ba] =~ A correspondent of Just a Minute in Texas got a néw point of view from a colored soldier at one of the training camps. The darkey was not so sure that he was going to fight for his country, ‘*Tell you what, though, Cap,’’ he said. ‘‘I’m gonna make the Kaiser fight lak hell for his country.’* i Tee RET iC opi “s ve i “TD t is column is wit bias the lat “es leiding publicists, n 8 and per ecls on the questions of the.day. = REFORMS IN PASSENGER m Railway Age . pus paper has called atte times to the wasteful du passenger train service bacwaeil e all parts of the United States. be it examples on which we have ofteri ¢ mented has been the service between cago and St. Louis.

PWwhile the people are War is a defensive wat, ey lg n armies fight in France, in , in Serbia and in Ru- ys are told, too, iI AST summer (1917), that it is Germany that is desirous of making peace and that the allies re- fuse. when an interview I had with the Chancellor in which he named the peace terms of the autocracy was published, the interview was repudi- ated by the Chancellor, who stated that these terms were not his. lam gure that they are not his and were not his, but I am equally sure that they are the terms and were the terms of the autocracy of Prus- sia as stated by him. Shortly after this the newspapers confirmed part of these terms, telling of the talk in Germany of the guarantees to be ex- acted in case Belgium was surren- dered by the Germans, which guar- antees amounted to the absolute control of that unfortunate country and “rectification of the frontiers” demanded by Germany on the East- ern frent. Outside of Germany the propa- gandist and the pacifist and other proclaimed that this war is not a war of conquest or aggression. Kaiser and pastor, Reichstag mem- nalists, have all at different times during the war declared themselves in favor of conquest. Fighting a “‘Defensive War.”’ And it is extraordinary, as show- ing the masterful manner in which the poor German people are led astray, that most of the men making these declarations for annexation are able at the same time to cry that Germany is fighting a defensive war and is prevented from making peace cnhly by the wicked allies. The King of Bavaria, speaking early in 1915 at a banquet, said: ‘'I rejoice because we can at last have a reckoning with our enemies and because at last we can obtain a di- rect outlet from the Rhine to the sea. Ten months have gone by. Much blood has been poured out. But it shall not be poured in vain, for the fruit of the war shall be a and the extension of its boundaries, ture attacks.”’ Duke John Albert of Mecklenburg, who is the gentleman who slapped occasion that Germany would never forget the export of arms and am- munition to* her enemies by America and that some day Germany would have her revenge, deciared also in 19165 that the war would give Ger- many not only a mighty African strongholds on earth for its navy, commerce, coaling and wireless sta- tions. < HE Kaiser himself, speaking in T July, 1915, in his call to the German people issued from Great General Headquarters, said “that Germany would fight until peace came, a peace which offered the necessary military, political and commercial guarantees for the fu- ture.”’ Vice President Paasche of Reichstag, in April said: ‘‘We are not allowed to speak about conditions of peace. But the that we will not give up enemy land conquered with so much German blood.” A sentiment also expressed in April, 1915, by the National Libera] Reichstag member, Vachhorst de Wente was to this effect: “Our fatherland must be larger. from us. Otherwise we will have obtained nothing except victory. We desire also to have the reward of victory. We will not give back all.” Von Heydebrandt, the Conserva- tive leader, the uncrowned King of Prussia, as he is called, demanded as a condition of peace “a and larger Germany.” : Naturally, the Conservative lead- ers are for conquest and annexation. Numerous articles in the Centrist Cologne. Volkezeitung were pub- lished protesting against giving Bel- gium her independence again. in agents of the Central Empires have | | placed the burden of the responsibil- | ity for the war.

When only Chief of Staff of the East Army he wrote: “The power of Middle Europe will be strengthened, that of the Great Russians pushed back toward the East, whence it came, at a time not not mistaken about the history of your family, they are noted for their love of shining things fully as much as ours.”’ “Come along,” said Mr. Crow to Mr. Possum; ‘‘we have found your spoons, and that is all I wanted. I cannot bother with the bad fellow, who now wants to make it appear that I took the spoons; but that is always the way with thieves—they “blame it on someone else if they can.”’ HE more Mr. Coon thought about those spoons, the more very distant.” These quotations simply show that | the great majority of those outside the Social Democratic party—of the Germans, indeed, who rule the country, conduct its com- merce and officer its army and navy —all have been infected with a dan- gerous microbe of Pan-Germanism and of world conquest. Everyone who professes a know!l- edge of German life and character, everyone who writes of the origin of the war, talks of § “Treitschke, Nietzsche and Bernhardl.

And it is equally absurd to thinx of a Prussian junker, sitting by the fire in the evening, deeply al:sorb. |! in the philosophy of Nietzsche. All Germans, as a matter of fact, through pride of conquest in 1864, 1866 and 1870 and great industrial success, had come to believe them- selves to be supermen delegated bv heaven to win the world. Treitschke and Nietzsche were simply affectec in their writings by this universal poison of overweening vanity. They but reflected the fashion of the day in thinking, they did not lead the nation’s thought. Nietzsche himself | wrote in one of his letters shortly | before his death, which occurred ir 1900: “Although I am in my forty-fifth year and have “written 15 books, I am alone in Germany. There has not been a single moderately respectful review of one of my buvks.” Continued in the Post-Dispatch Tomorrow, Lamb Steaks Recommended. O*: item of waste in the meat trade of thks country has been in the slaughter of lightweight lambs for fancy consuming demand, and the Butchers’ Advocate calls at- tention to the fact that heavy lambs are the staple in England and Can- ada, and that butchers there make a practice of reducing hind quarters for leg of lamb to the size desired by the average family, cutting off lamb steaks for separate sale. If retail butchers in this country would handle heavy lambs in that way, building up trade for lamb steaks, which are considered fine meat, says the Butchers’ Advocate, it would be possible to ralse market lambs to greater weights, increase the meat supply, and probably bring better profits to the grower.

By arduous work, singing in choirs and giving lessons in the rudiments of music, she saved $300, and with this sum went to Italy, with the pur- pose of staying five years abroad. She sailed on an Italian boat and sang at a ship's concert. She was discon- certed when an Italian passenger asked her what was the “English song” she sang. She had thought she was singing fm Italian. N Florence she turned her hand | | at anything to make money. She did choir work, played accom- paniments in exchange for singing lessons, and even persuaded some tuberculous persons that what they most needed was breathing exercises, under her instruction. She cooked her own meals on an alcohol lamp in her room. Overwork and lack of nourishment led to nervous break- down and a hospital. Next she was in Berlin, playing ac- companiments to pay for lessons, reading aloud to a blind English woman, and giving lessons in En- glish at 25 cents each to a German woman whom she floored with a ‘phonetical system,” invented on the spot in order to get the work. On gala days she had an egg for dinner; usually the menu consisted of crack- ers. The result was another break- down. Finally she arrived in Paris, and after many hardships persuaded Jean de Reszke to give her lessons in return for accompaniments she played for his pupils. In addition to work as a church singer and organ- ist, she was now able to make sev- eral concert appearances. The five years were up, and she returned to the United States. “T had never thought of going into opera,” she said, “until Director Stock of the Chicago Symphony Or- chestra advised me to.

But he isn’t.” eee _—-- ie Waves ——— HE experiment on a large scale fs on smoothing water by means of oil was first made at Peter- head, England, by John Shields 36 years ago. A force pump with 1200 feet of lead and iron pipe was used to throw the oil upon the waves at the harbor’s mouth. Ajithough the sea was running high, it became smooth as soon as the pump began to “pour oil upon the troubled wa- ters.” On many occasions since then ves- sels in danger at sea have used oll —_— to smooth the waves with great suc- cess. Just a few years ago the effi- cacy of oil in stilling the billows was again demonstrated when the Ura- nian liner Volturno burned in mid- ocean, When the rescue ships, sum- moned by wireless, réached~ the scene the waves were so high that they could not approach the burn- ing vessel. The arrival of « tank steamer, which turned a flood of ei! upon the sea, made it possibie for lifeboats to come alongside and save many of the large number of: pas- sengers and the crew. | Europe’s Vest Pocket Republics | URSUING the serene and wun- P troubled tenor of their ways while the fate of the remain- der of Europe is being decided af the cost of unnumbered lives are three vest pocket republics which never figure in the news and are | usually ignored by the mapmakers. | Of these, St. Goust is barely one ‘square mile in area, being the small- ‘eet independent state in the world '1t is situated in such an inaccessible |part of the Basses-Pyrenees that it has never been worth the trouble of ‘the surrounding Powers to interfere, | s0 its population of 130 govera themselves, as they have for the past 2000 years, by a “Council of Elders,” numbering 12.

Its presence is made known by a frothy, red discharge and an unmistakable odor and a bub- bling, crackling sound when the swollen flesh is pressed. When these conditions exist the surgeon knows that the germs are at work, produc- ing a gas which burrows deep into the surrounding tissue. Quick and heroic measures are de- manded, the wound must be opened up wide and carefully cleansed after every bit of infected tissue has been cut away. A solution is applied to kill the germ, but if this is not effec- tive, amputation is necessary. The method used is not the ordinary one 7. oe ne | for removing an arm or leg, but the so-called “guillotine,” the limb being . cut off straight across, leaving aa open wound for further treatment. Excellent results are now being ob- tained from the use of the CGarrei- Dakin method, devised by Dakin of England and Carrel, the French eur- geon once connected with the Rocke- feller Institute. The institute has re- eently produced an antitozin which is being tried out as a preventive gas gangrene. — In the above method an antiseptic solution is placed in a glass ¢on- tainer, from which leads a tube with branches which penetrate into every part of the wound.
