By the Associated Press. | WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, May 30.—From Flan- ders to Switzerland and from the battle line to the sea, the American expeditionary forces today are pay- ing homage to their dead. Wherever American flags are flying they are at half-staff and before the day is, over the Star-Spangled Banner and | flowers will be placed on virtually every American grave. At some points the ceremony took place early in the morning, while other exercises were held at various times throughout the day. Daylight saw some graves decorated. At one place in the vicinity of Luneville the graves had been dec- orated in the morning darkness when the enemy could not see clearly, for the soldiers performing this duty might have drawn the German fire the American and French flags were placéd on the mounds with bunches of wild flowers—great red poppies. and yellow and white daisies. At one of the largest of the base hospitals the nurses and some of the less seriously wounded men covered every grave with a flag and crowned each with wreaths. The last resting places of American women who have died in service as nurses were hon- ored equally with those of the sol- diers. Up close to the American lines northwest of Toul khaki-clad troop- ers, with the dirt of the trenches stil] clinging to them, lined up before the spots where the fallen sleep, and participated in services in honor of the dead. On the hillside between Nancy and Luneville where the first Americans killed in the war are buried in a lit- tle inclosed plot in the Franco-Amer- icah cemetery, the graves were lit- erally smothered under heaps of flowers and wreaths brought by the French population of the surround- ing country. From the air, men of the American flying forces swooped down and scat- tered flowers over the spot where Maj, Lufbery and other American heroes of the air lie buried.

Dunn said Herberg shouted: ‘All American newspapers are liars. Ger- many will never be beaten.” Dunn struck Herberg after asking him if he had a Liberty Bond, and receiving ‘a negative reply. A crowd gathered around the two men be- fore policemen took Herberg in charge. 252 GERMAN AIRPLANES BROUGHT DOWN IN WEEK the Associated Press.

R., with especial reference to the President’s request for pray- ers for victory for the American army. Arrangements were made for many besides the: veterans to visit the barracks, a special train and a special steamboat excursion supple- menting the street car service. The Spanish War Veterans arranged to go to the barracks in a body, with Charlies M. Hay as orator at their ceremony of decorating graves. As is the annual custom, many families went to all the city ceme- teries to decorate the graves of their dead.

Foch can afford to make a corresponding early movement should he wish to do so, without altering his relative strength in sectors which he may, consider more vital. The Germans, having the initia- tive, had the best of the opening. But matters have a habit of equaliz- ing themselves after a few days and the further advance of the enemy on the line he has chosen cannot be safely permitted. The position on the shortest road to Paris has been seriously altered to the detriment of the allies. Since the second phase of Cambrai we have witnessed several exami- ples of the most modern practice of the war of movement as preached toward Poperinghe and his move- ment against the hills from the east and northeast. This attack was met by the French, who have re- placed our troops on part of this sec- tor, which we previously held. Whether the Ypres and Belgian front: of the southern. line of attack from Bailleul will attract the masses of the German Fourth and “Sixth armies is still an open question.. So far as we know, these two armies, with the combined strength of some 50. divisions, are co- operating in the German operations on the northern front between the sea and the canal of Labassee, but some of these troops may have been sent south. The loss of the Aisne heights and of the river line is a grave matter, and we can all feel confident that Gen.

By Thomas Marvin Johnson, A Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1918.) WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, May 29.—The Americans have made their first real attack of the war and it was a complete success. Advancing up a wooded slope behind French tanks and protected by a per- fect and annihilating barrage from French and American guns, our infantry at 7 o’clock Tuesday morning stormed and captured the village of Cantigny northwest of Montdidier and the German defenses to the north and south making an advance of a mile on a two-mile front. The Americans went over in open formation at 6:45 o’clock, advancing at an easy walk and maintaining in- tervals as if on parade. The sun had just risen and through streaky clouds all about, tongues of red flame were darting from the muzzles of hun- dreds of massed guns, big and small, while the air itself quivered with the shock of explosions, mingled with the deafening yet purring roar that is called drumfire. Cantigny itself was turned into a veritable hell, a pillar of fire and smoke, and into it went the crawling sinister tanks followed by the Amer- ican infantry in thin lines or Httle groups. For a while they were swal- lowed up in the great white and bro and black cloud that envel- oped the village, then back to the American line came the first mes- sage: ““‘We’re here. Everything O K.” Thus these troops of the new world made their first real entry into the war. Troops Advanced in Darkness. Thus they did what they could to help in offsetting the new German efforts. Compared with the giant struggle going elsewhere it was just a little outbrpst, but we did our best with it, and have succeeded. No one who had the privilege to be on the scene at the time of this first Amefican attack will ever for- get the sight. The troops that had been chosen *he darkness along the shell-pitted rcads to the jumping off place; the gro- tesque tanks mbled up the same roads to hide until dawn behind the front line; the men were given their last orders, and their last “good luck,” and were off in the early dawn when the cannonade began, and the first airplanes whirred over- head toward the village objector. The tempest of shell fire drowned minute, 6:45 o’clock, we turned to one an- other and shouted: ‘They're over!” 4 It is impossible now to tell the ‘whole, detailed story. It must be written in fragments as it came to the correspondent, sometimes at vantage points behind the front iine, sometimes along the roads leading back from it, sometimes in the arched dugout at headquarters, amid buz- zing telephones, calling voices, ‘with always the pounding, jarring of guns for a background. ' Cantigny an Important Position. But the first salient points can be outlined. This operation had been planned for weeks down to the mi- nutest detail under the direction of. the superior French command, and in the closest co-operation with the French, to whom must go a liberal measure of the credit for its suc- cess. So far as its objects may be dis- closed, they were the following: To reduce the enemy salient and cap- ‘ture its strong point and observation Cantigny was all those things. Jut- ting out from the German front, it gave him an advantage in the field of fire, while, because of its strong cellars which were linked up with a long tunnel under the chateau in the southern part of the vilmge, which might be likened to its citadel, it was decidedly a strong post. Per- haps most important of all, it gave the boche a local advantage compar- able to that of a man looking down a well. It commanded a sort of val- ley running back into our lines and permitted the boche observers to see many things that went on there and | © so direct his artillery fire upon our Bo Bees, Ba, oe aye ye. > sgl wee e ae EY 2a = a back areas. For all of these reasons Cantigny Was a prize of value out of all pro- ,Portion to its size. The attack was carefully planned and was rehearsed by our infantry with tanks. They had the furthe> advantage of valuable data gained by our patrols in frequent night explo- rations of the village from whence the boche seems to have withdrawn his infantry during darkness. ‘ Our men have an ordeal ahead of them, for beyond doubt the Ger- mans will presently endeavor to pour down upon the village a hail of shells, for they know the Americans took it, and they desire above all things to vent their hate upon us.

On the right and center the advance was made to the furtherest objectives, while on the left, according to the plan, after clearing up the German trenches, our troops withdrew slightly to a better position, connecting with our old front line. : Advanced 50 Yards a Minute. The troops went forward in ex-/ tended order, preceded by the pow- erful tanks, all of which entered Cantigny and went some distance be- yond. With the infantry went a de- tachment of flame throwers who were used against the cellars when the boche refused to come out when ordered to do so. They were also ac- companied by a strong detachment of engineers, signal corps men and carrier pigeons, but the wires have The artillery fire was tremendous. The German batteries at the rear were also drenched by gas. A rolling barrage behind which the infantry advanced was laid by the field guns. The infantry went forward first at the rate of 50 yards per minute and then at 25 yards per minute. The moving barrage of fire stalked ahead of our men into Cantigny, keeping the boche down until the infantry. was upon him. The time table was adhered to per- fectly. At 4:45 o'clock the artillery began a heavy, concentrated fire, swelling to a drumfire at 6:45, ‘“‘zero”’ continuing thence onward to 7:20, when the infantry reached their final objectives. At 7:30 the infantry outlined their position with flares so as to enable the airplanes to signal back. Thus it will be seen that Cantigny was taken in less than’ 35 minutes, for the final objectives were beyond the village. Smoke Barrage Aided. There were some tough nuts to crack besides Cantigny, itself, such as the trench system protecting it south, also part of Fontaine Wood, and some separate houses at the crossroads at the southeastern out- skirts of the town, but all were re- duced with bombs, bayonets or ri- fles, while the machine guns which went along with the infantry also aided. Besides all this, a heavy smoke barrage was used, not only to screen our infantry from boche observers, but to blind the boche gunners. The tremendous effectiveness of the whole thing was shown by the fact that for nearly a half hour after the infantry went over the top the Ger- man artillery was practically _si- lenced. This was due especially to the ‘accurate counter battery work of the French heavies. So the Americans in their first at- tack had the aid of every engine of modern warfare—tanks, gas, flame throwers, smoke barrage, numbers of airplanes, machine guns and auto- matic rifles, while some. especially heavy trench mortars also were con- centrated and hurled great bombs into the German trenches from close range. Early reports all agree that the German eefenses were completely leveled and the smashed-up trenches look like a field plowed by a giant harrow. Our men walked into the trenches through great gaps torn in‘ the barbed wire, but in many places there was no wire at all for great stretches. So much for the main outlines of the attack. Waking up early in the morning on the blanket bed on the floor of the dugout and taking a first peep through the sand-bagged entrance, it was plain that our best hopes were going to be realized and that it would be a clear day, with good visibility. Visibility Good. The sun had not yet appeared, but the clouds were few and the ‘éarly Hight showed every feature of the country. Here and there were dark dots de- noting the waiting batteries, while sausage balloons were already swinging overhead. The night before, in the subter- ranean headquarters, the speculation had been about these things: Would the boche shell the troops going in that night? Would the visibility be good? | The answer to both was favora- e. 7 In the mess room the commanding General sat at breakfast, cleanly shaven and unworried, although he had been on the front line most of the night. This General, who was in immediate command, talked not about the attack, but about the cen- By the Associated ; WASHINGTON, May 30.—Consol-° ions taken Tuesday by the Americans in the Pantigny sa- he and the repulse of renewed counter-attacks is announced in Gen.

BOSTON, May 30.—‘“As much dead-weight ship tonnage has been launched from the ship- yards of the United States in the last three weeks as was sunk by German submarines during the entire month of April,” said Dr. Charles A.

Last week alone, Dr. Easton said, 18 ships, representing 106,- 000 dead-weight tonnage, went down the ways. ment. It also tells of the repulse last night of three raids in Lor- raine in which several prisoners were taken and a number of the enemy killed. The dispatch follows: “In the Cantigny salient we have consolidated our positions in spite of heavy artillery and machine-gun fire. Renewed counter-attacks broke down under our fire. “ “In Lorraine we repulsed'_ three raids during the night, taking sev- eral prisoners and killing a number of the enemy. There and in the Woevre the artillery af both sides has been continuously active. “It is established that on May 2? our aviators shot two hostile ma- chines instead of one as reported.” By this time the artillery had started, so we went out along the road toward the front, passing a line of ambulances parked under. the trees. The further we went along the read the more frequent became the flashes of the explosions on either side, but thus far not a single boche shell had come in. Cloud Covered Cantigny. Some distance up the road was a vantage spot whence we got a clear view of Cantigny, or the spot where it had been. It was a picture ter- rible in its grandeur. Cantigny might have been a vol- cano in eruption shooting up clouds that were first white, then brown, then black, while above the air was filled with spiral-shaped black clouds of exploding shrapnel. — | That great smoke cloud was eter- nally writhing and twisting and tak- ing on new forms as though an- guished Cantigny was trying to es- cape its fate, but every instant more guns flashed. Beside the observa- tion post, the cloud grew iarger. Finally the smoke streamed off to the right. Nearby the American gunners were working, stripped to their undershirts, dripping with per- spiration. We walked over there. “This is the fastest firing we've ever done,” said one officer. To the left new . batteries had ‘opened and the din was terrific. A ‘glance at the watch showed that it lacked barely five minutes of the “zero” hour. Those five minutes passed more rapidly and yet more slowly than any I had ever experienced. Ahead was a green slope, dotted with tree, up which our infantry was to advance. It was bare and empty. It seemed incredible that in a few minutes our men would be there. The smoke drifted in, gradually obscuring our view, and our greatest fear was that it would drift in so far that it would be impossible to see the men whom we knew so well go to their first attack. Smoke Hides Battle. At 9 o’clock we looked at one an- other. “They’re over,’’ we whispered. We looked up from our watches to find that the smoke clouds had drifted down the slope until the whole country for miles about Can- tigny was obscured by shifting, changing vapor from the great caul- dron toward which our unseeh men were plunging. ‘We almost groaned our disappoint- ment, for in a moment there came a little rift in the smoke, revealing something moving on the ground. Imagine looking at the teeth of a black comb through a wire screen and having someone pass the comb slowly before your eyes. That was what it looked like—those black teeth, our men were screens by the shifting smobe. It was only the tiniest glimpse. Then the smoke drifted over and rose again, but we had seen them going forward and upward to Can- tigny. After a time the smoke spread still further. Walking back along the road where now there were a few belated Boche shells coming down, the heavy artillery officer said: “From my observation post we cofild see them for a couple of minutes. They went just the way they rehearsed, just walked along slowly, keeping fine alignment. We could see two or three waves and not a single man cut of place, following the barrage like veterans. We could even see an individual man sometimes. SEES ALIBI FOR RUBBER SUSPECTS IN MURDER CASE Attorney Indicates Probable Defense if They Are Put on Trial for Killing of Al- leged Accomplice. — CLARK AT CINCINNATI, IT IS NOW CLAIMED Sidler Quoted as Saying Man Whose Body Was Found in River Was With Them Just Before Arrest. D. H. Mudge, an attorney of Ed- wardsville, Ill. who has been re- tained to represent Mrs. May Clark and Mrs. Alexander Mackeown and who says he will also represent “Big Gus” Sidler and Alexander keown, charged with robbing the Tri-State Bank of Madison, $16,000, of which $13,000 was recovered when they were arrested, told a Post Dispatch reporter today that he expected to be able to establish an alibi that would clear the. two men of the added charge of murder- ing J. P. (Ted) Clark, whose body, identified by several persons, was taken from the Missouri River at Fort Bellefontaine on Tuesday. He said that if the body was Clark's and if Sidler and Mackeown were to be charged with his’ death, it would have to be shown that he was killed between May 16, when the bank was robbed, and May 139, when the two men were arrested in Cincinnati, and the body would, therefore, have been in the water ot less than nine days. Say Clark Was at Cincinnati. His information, he said, was that Clark was alive when the other two men were arrested at Cincinnati. Sidler told Supt. Mosher of the Pinkerton Detective Agency Clark was with him and Mackeown in a Cincinnati saloon the day they were arrested. Clark left them to get a shave and he and Mackeown, he says, returned to the hotel, where they were arrested. He says Clark had a large amount of money, and that he was infatuated with ‘‘a little doll” in the East and was talking of going to Vincennes to meet her. He says that the heart” note found in the robbers’ automobile, abandoned near wood, the night after the bank rob- bery, was written by Clark to this girl. He does not attempt to explain, however, why Mrs. Clark was sum- moned by telegraph from Chicago to Cincinnati if Clark was planning to desert her for the ‘“‘little doll.”’ The detectives consider it very unlikely that Sidler or Mackeown would have felt called upon to notify Mrs. Clark of Clark’s intentions. The theory of the detectives is that Sidler was infatuated with Mrs. Clark and wired her to join him in Cincinnati after Clark had been killed. Mrs. Clark has denied the body is that of Clark, without view- ing it. It was buried yesterday afternoon by the county authorities. Mrs. Clark also says that her hus- band could not have been killed by Sidler and Mackeown, because “they were not there.’’ Her assertion that» it could not be the body of her husband was prompted by the information that the body had been in the water at least a week. She was asked if she had any information that her husband was alive withi nthe past week and refused to answer. Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Mackeown ar- rived in Edwardsville Sunday night and registered at the Leland Hotel, Mrs. Clark under the name of Mar- garet Edwards and Mrs. Mackeown under her own name. They left the hotel at 11 a. m. Monday and went to live at a private residence. Al- though they had been instructed by the lawyers engaged to defend the two men not to go to the jail to see them, they went there yesterday aft- ernoon. Jailer Ferguson refused to let them see the prisoners. They did not make their identity known. A Post-Dispatch reporter re- marked in their hearing that there was a telephone call for Mrs. Clark and one of the women said she was Mrs. Clark. She was invited into the jailer’s office and there informed of the finding and identification of the body and was given a newgpaper ac- count to read. She exhibited surprise and wept freely.

ROBERTS AFTER CONVICTION Protests Love for Man Whose Wife She Killed — Says to Choke Prosecutor. JURY OUT 4 HOURS AND TOOK 10 BALLOTS Defendant First Broke Down Panel and Sobbed Hyster- ically. By the Associated Press. WAUKESHA, Wis, May Grace Lusk’ was raving in her cell today and her cries were for Dr. David Roberts, her lover of other days, whose wife she _ killed, for of murder in the second degree. “T love him! I love him! Bring him here! I want him! Oh, God, how I love him! Let me kiss him!” Then a moan: “Can't you people understand. I love him-—how my heart cries for him.’’ Two nurses in the cell watched the tossing figure on the cot closely. The sounds came plainly through the jail corridor out to where a bailiff sat. “What d’ye know about that?” re- marked the bailiff. ‘Wants him, been yelling for him all night. Why, he threw her down hard.at the trial. Last night she wouldn’t see her old father— laughed at him... She told him: ‘You wouldn’t let me die before; now look at me,’ and with that she be- gan moaning for the doc again.” The conviction, which was for the that|to 15 years’ imprisonment. “Dear Sweet- | Kirk-, posed that he was a traveling sales-. killing of Mary Newman Roberts last June, carries a sentence of from 14 Owing to the prisoner's condition, however, Judge Lueck intimated that he would not pronounce sentence until Miss Lusk is more composed. Meanwhile every instrument. by which she might do herself injury has been removed from her cell and teyond her reach. ‘“Tt’s a lie! It’s a Hie against me! He lied! He lied! He lied!’’ Miss Lusk screamed as she sprang at the throat of D. S. Tullar, Acting District Attorney, after the jury had found her guilty of second degree murder. Grasping the throat of Tullar, who is more than 60 years old, in both hands, she shook him back and forth in his chair at the counsel ta- ble till several men dragged her away, when she fainted. Recovering several minutes later, her aged fa- ther and one of her attorneys at- tempted to lead her from the court- room, but she struggled with them, her hair unfastened, tumbling about her face. As she was half dragged away she screamed: “That man’s son lied! He lied! He lied my life away. Maurice Tullar swore my life away! Several hundred spectators, mostly women, stood with tears streaming down their faces during the out- break. The jury which had _ “°re- turned the verdict sending. Miss Lusk to prison stood in their places witn ashen faces as though paralyzed. Puring the second outbreak, they shrunk back as she was led past screaming. ' What He Swore To. Maurice Tullar, now in a sanita- rium because of ill-health, is the District Attorney of Waukesha and at the ‘trial swore that four days after the shooting of Mrs. Roberts he obtained a statement from Miss Lusk in which she said that she realized why she had shot Mrs. Roberts, but could not understand how she had done it so “calmly and deliberately. ’ D. S. Tullar was appointed special prosecutor at the trial by his son, who was unable to act because of his illness. The elder Tullar took little part in the case, leaving its active direction to Walter D. Corri- gan of Milwaukee. Miss Lusk collapsed when jury retired and her became such on returning to the jail that it required nearly half an hour to return here to the courthouse when the jury reported a verdict at 9:40 o’clock. The jury re- tired for delfberation at 5:27 p. m. and four hours later informed Judge Lueck that a verdict had been reached. The Judge sent for the court officers and ordered Miss Lusk brought over from the jail. When the slayer of Mrs. Roberts was final- ly half carried into the courtroom she was unable to sit upright alone. Another delay was caused by the ab- sence of the clerk and the court re- porter, Lusk becoming more nervous each moment. When the case was given to the jury Miss Lusk, who had shown lit- tle emotion during the day, broke down and sobbed hysterically soon as the. crowd had left the court room. She was almost dragged the short distance to the jail by her father and a woman friend. In her cell she collapsed. the More than a hundred persons were dimly waiting the verdict in the lighted room which quickly filled up with spectators as the word spread that the jury was ready to report.

Meadows, 7% years old, a reticgd merchant, who had been elected as foreman, rose at 10:14 p. m. to read the verdict. After he had spoken the words which will send Miss Lusk to the head back against her father’s shoulder like a tired child. After remaining quietly at rest for a moment, her eyes closed, she sl »w- furts to restrain her, and quietly walked around the counsel table un- til she confronted Tullar. There was an utter silence as she paused dramatically before throwing her- self at the aged man with é h21Nf- choked cry which could be h3ard in every part of the building. At midnight Miss Lusk was rest- ing quietly in her cell under the in- fluence of opiates. Judge Lueck, after the outbreak, requested counsel for the defense to hold all motions in abeyance, and immediately ad- journed court. Members of the jury said that 10 ballots were neces-ary to arrive at the verdict. Mrs. Roberts was shot and killed by Miss Luk in the latter’s home the afternoon of June 21, 1917. The tragedy followed a friendship ex- tending back to the summer. of 1914 between Dr. David Roberts, a forruer State veterinarian, nationally known as a manufacturer of proprietary medicines for cattle, and Miss Lusk who won distinction as an educator affer having taken a de- gree at the University of Wisconsin. At the time she met Dr. Roberts she was a teacher in the Waukesha Nor- raal School. After slaying Mrs. Roberts, Miss Lusk tried to kill herself with the same revolver. For the past 10 months she has been held in jail. Her trial on a charge of murder be- gan May 13. She had entered a plea of not guilty, and alco a special plea of insanity. Dr. Roberts’ Story. On the witness stand testifying for the prosecution, Dr. Roberts declared that Miss Lusk pursued him, struck him in the face when he refused to say that he cared more for her than he did for his wife, and had threat- ened him with death unless he told Mrs. Roberts of their relations and asked for his freedom so that he could marry her. Miss Lusk in her testimony de- clared that t doctor had won her sympathy by telling her of his un- happy home life and had said that, he cared 10,000 times more for her than he did for Mrs. Roberts. She testified that after Dr. Roberts had told his wife, Mrs. Roberts came to see her and threatened to have her driven out of Waukesha. She said that she did not remember shooting Mrs. Roberts. | Judge Martin Lueck in his in-: structions to the jury, late yesterday | afternoon, spoke in part as follows: | “You will keep in mind that if you | should find that Dr. Roberts is more to be blamed than the accused for the relations that grew up and ex- isted between them, it would furnish no excuse or justification for the tak- ing of the life of Mrs. Roberts. “Insanity means such an abnormal mental condition from any cause 4s to render the accused incapable of distinguishing between right and wrong at the time of a commission of a crime. “If you should find that the de- fendant was not capable of realizing the act she was doing or that it was. wrong, your verdict will be not guilty because insane, but insanity should not be made an excuse for acquittal. departments and bureaus MEMORIAL DAY BEING GENERALLY OBSERVED HERE Continued From Page One. the success of the soldiers in France.

NATION’S THOUGHT ON WAR ON THIS MEMORIAL DAY Country Observing It as One of Humiliation and Prayer for Overseas Forces. By the Associated Press, WASHINGTON, May 30.—Memo- rial day this year, carrying a deeper meaning because of the fuller par- ticipation of the United States in the war, and more significant be- cause of the new American graves in France, was observed today by the American people as a day of public humiliation, prayer and fast- ing, in accordance with the procla- mation of President Wilson issued in response to a resolutiop of Congress asking that such a day be set aside. While in no manner was the honor annually shown to the veterans of past wars lessened, yet the thought of the nation largely was centered on the battlefields of France, where the German military. machine is engaged in another drive against the forces of democracy. Official Confidence. That American troops are aiding in the attempt to stem the German tide was a source of satisfaction, as well as the recent news that Amer- icans have carried out successfully their first offensive action. Further news of the German offensive was awaited with a feeling among higher officials here that the attempt to beat down the allied resistance would fail and that the onrush of the Kaiser’s army would soon be stopped. In Washington the spirit of the President’s proclamation was car- ried out. The President planned to attend church this morning and this afternoon it was expected he would be present at the early services at Arlington National Cemetery. Both Houses stood adjourned to permit members to observe the day. Practically all of the Government were closed. : Cuban Minister S Speaking at the services at the monument to the battleship Maine in the Arlington National Cemetery to- day, Dr. Carlos Manuel de Cespedes, Cuban Minister to the United States, declared that the Cuban people have “nailed our flag with yours to the old mast of the Maine and won't give up the ship.” and that the peo- ple of the island republic age also as one in the supreme confidenee that the guns that speak for autocracy and abuse of power wielded by hordes of ferocious barbarans are to be silenced forever by the guns that spoke for freedom at San Juan and Santiago. “The story of the Maine recalls with significance,” he added, “that the policy, proclaiming that, what- “If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant killed Mrs. Roberts, you must find her guilty. “If you are satisfied beyond a rea- sonable goubt that she killed Mrs. Roberts and that she was sane at that time, you will find her guilty of one of three grades of criminal homi- cide, namely, murder in the first de- | gree, murder in the second degree or manslaughter in the third de- 9 £7 34 gt ee. ae r Se a At Busy Bee Candy Shops Friday. | Milk Chocolate Divinity, Assorted Caramels, Fruit Lakoom, 35c the Ib. —Adv, \. not) ever the cost may be, this war is not a war of conquest but was en- /tered upon by the United States for the sake of humanity, to make the world safe for democracy, has a. | giorious precedent in the generous / conduct of this nation when it struck (the chains of slavery from the limbs 'of Cuba.” At Busy Bee Candy Shope Friday.

WASHINGTON, May 30.—To save materials and labor for necessary | terday appealed to Americans to “buy only those things which are es- sential to the individual health and) efficiency and to volunteer on or be- fore June 28, National Thrift day, to | invest systematically in war savings | and thrift stamps, or other Govern- ment securities. “This war is one of nations—not | of armies,” said the President, ‘and all of our 100,000,000 people must be economically and industrially adjust- ed to war conditions if this nation is to play its full part in the conflict. The problem before us is not primar- ily a financial problem but rather a problem of increased production of war essentials and the saving of the materials and the labor necessary for the support and equipment of our army and navy. Thoughtless expend- iture of money for nonessentials uses up the labor of men, the products of the farm, mines and factories, and overburdens transportation, all of which must be used to the utmost and at their best for war purposes. Pledge He “The great results which we seek can be obtained only by the partici- pation of every member of the na- tion, young and old, in a national concerted thrift movement. I there- fore urge that our people every- where pledge themselves as sug- gested by the Secretary of the Treas- ury, to the practice of thrift; to serve the Government to their utmost in increasing production in all fields, necessary to the winning of the war: to conserve food and fuel and useful materials of every kind; to devote their labor only to the most neces- gary tasks; and to buy only those things which are essential to indi- vidual health and efficiency and that the people as evidence of their loy- alty invest all that they can save in Liberty Bonds and war savings stamps. “The securities issued by the Treasury Department are so many of them within the reach of every- one that: the door of opportunity in this matter is wide open to all of us. To practice thrift in peace tines is a virtue and brings great benefit war purposes, President Wilson yes- | the desperate need of the civilized | world today for materials and labor | with which to end the war the prac- tice of individual thrift is a patriotic |duty and a necessity. Urges Economy here. | “T appeal to all who now own eith- | er Liberty Bonds or war savings stamps to continue to practice econ- omy and thrift, and to appeal to all | who do not own Government securi- | ties to do likewise and purchase ‘them to the extent of their means. The man who buys Government se curities transfers the purchasing power of his money to the United States Government until after his war, and to that same degree does not buy in competition with the Gov- ernment. “IT earnestly appeal to every man, woman and child to pledge them- selves on or before the 28th of June to save constantly, and to buy as regularly as possible the securities of the Government; to do this as far as possible through membership in war suving societies. The 28th of June ends this special period of enlist- ment in the great volunteer army of production and saving here at home. May there be none unenlisted on that day.”’ Diamonds.

WASHINGTON, May 30.—Two hundred thousand men of draft age, who, becaus® of minor physical de- fects have been held by examining surgeons over the country for lim- ited military service, are to be em- ployed in producing or handling equipment for the army. Provost Marshal-General Crowder announced last night that the army staff corps will utilize the service of these reg- istrants and thus release fighting men for the front line. Gen. Crowder today issued the first call under the new plan. Orders went forth to Governors of states for up- wards of 9000 men for service in spruce production for airplanes. The men until June 6. After that date a report will be made tothe Provost Marshal- General, and if there are not suffi- cient volunteers allotments will be made to the various states to be filled by involuntary inductment. Some 10,000 men of the army are engaged in getting out spruce timber in the Northwest, and the Signal Corps con- stantly is increasing this number. Consequently the sending of the new mén to this field will constitute no new policy, and it is understood that it has no relation to complaints that the I. W. W. have retarded the out- put of spruce. Some 24 trades or classes, includ- ing railroad, transport and construc- tion men, office workers and labor- ers, are desired for the spruce divi- sion. When this division has been filled, men will be called to fill other staff services of the army until the 200,000 total has been exhausted.

The position as regards Japan is widely misunderstood.

A you cannot afford to neglect. ea, caiiiaettinie se — ne Japan to send troops to the western firm, agreed-upon allied proposal for an allied expedition to Siberia— which, from the very nature of things, must be of predominantly Japanese composition. Until a firm proposal is before Japan, public opinion here will not crystallize and until that event occurs importance need not be attached to newspaper comments, which are admittedly not enthusiastic for allied intervention in Siberia. Except among a few Tokio profes- sors, there is no desire in Japan for a German victory, though her moral and army. culture : and prevalent ideas are largely German, despite the fact that everybody of note talks En- glish. There is considerable admira- tion for German military achieve- ments, leading in one or two cases to doubts whether in the Anglo- Japanese alliance Japan backed the right horse. If there is not more enthusiasm for the allied cause, it is wholly the fault of inadequate and ill-proportioned news given out to the Japanese public. It is waste of time and it is folly to talk to Japan of democracy or in terms of high-flown idealism. The average Japanese does not compre- hend the meaning of democracy. Es- sentially practical, the Japanese looks to achievement, and the facts that go home are not what is said, but what has been done. BARON GOTO GIVES VIEWS ON INTERVENTION By the Associated Press. LONDON, May 30.—The Daily Mail publishes from its Tokio corre- spondent an interview with the Jap- anese Foreign Minister, Baron Shim- pei Goto, which is remarkable for its discussion by question and answer of Japan’s good faith toward the allies and of the Pro-Germanism attribut- ed to Baron Goto in some quarters. The interview is mainly concerned with the prospects of Japanese inter- vention in Siberia. Baron Goto said the allies had made no formal proposal to Japan for such intervention, but that any suggestions by the allies would re- ceive sympathetic consideration. Asked what compensation Japan would, demand for intervention, the | Baron replied it would depend on size of the army, the extent of the | theaters of operations and the like. “But at the present moment,” he said, “we are not thinking of com- pensation but only of everything for the allied cause, which we have faithfully made our own.” Concerning the relations of: Japan with the United States, Baron Goto said that since the steel difficulty had been settled Japan no longer had any cause for complaint. The correspondent suggested that Great Britain has been instrumental in bringing accord in American and Japan relations as she had brought accord between Russia and Japan. To this Baron Goto replied: “You are quite right. Great Bri- tain is a factor in bringing America and Japan into closer and more cor- dial terms. These offices are being continued on all sides with the ob- ject of strengthening the intimacy and fellowship of the allies.” Questioned concerning the Japa- nese politicians who the correspond- ent said appeared to regret that Ja- pan was not allied with Germany, Baron Goto said. “I do not say there are not such men among us, but temporary polit- ical partisanship should not be mis- takén for solid convictions.” Coming to the question of accusa- tions of. his alleged pro-Germanism, Baron Goto spoke as follows: ‘I stayed in Germany for many years and studied there and people not pro-German at all. I am not | = anti-English. I am Japanese, shar- ing the national views regarding our international relationship.”’ Emphasizing this point Baron Goto insisted that it was impossible that he could be\pro-German © because “Germany is Aan enemy.” But he declined to disctss what he described as the meaningless question whether he believed in the permanency of = the Anglo-Japanese alliance. In reply to a question concerning allegations that Japan was in the = fight only for materialistic ends, the Foreign Minister satd: “Japan had no particular reason to go to war with Germany. She came in in obedience to obligations of the Anglo-Japanese alliance—-to keep the faith. The facts are thre to justify us.” Baron Goto expressed the fear that the war might be protracted but he was confident of an allied victory.

A parade six blocks long of men hing four abreast went from elfth street out Locust street to tg Coliseum last night. The men “Were for the most part shirt-sleeved men, marching with consciously straightened shoulders, with files that, if not soldiers, they plain civilians.

Iden P.

' The men ‘marched by wards, each Ward displaying a banner that dis- Closed its identity. A Post-Dispatch. reporter counted 1176 marching men. There were none but Class 1 men in the parade, except musicians and a squad of four mounted policemen. ' The police had an easier task of clearing the way than for any of the numerous war-time demonstrations in which St. Louis has engaged, for though the marching of the drafted men, already beginning to show ear- marks of soldiers, easily was one of the most impressive spectacles that has been given the city, there were few of the city’s population present to see it. The start was made in Twelfth street, with only a small Mumber, mostly proud women folk, to give applause. Was Uncrowded. fhe route out Locust street was uncrowded, and when the marchers entered the Coliseum to the music of their bands, their flags waving, only a small fringe of people in the bal- cony cheered down on them. The ‘lower fioor had been reserved for the marchers. As the marchers took their chairs, 18 men, each bearing aloft a. huge | fleg, entered and lined up side by | gide so that they formed a back | drup of color for the speaker's stand. ‘The flags were alternately American and Italian and were carried by “members of the United Italian Socie- thes of St. Louis. | The meeting had been under way | @crme minutes when it was interrupt- | ed by comrhotion outside and the en- |gry of a band, blowing louder than ; any of the rest, a stirring medley of , patriotic tunes.

'Major-Gefieral Emilio Guglielmot- ti, military attache of the royal Ital- fan embassy..at Washington and a moted leader of the Italian ‘Black Devils,” was the man chosen to sppak to the draffed men. He was given a Modest introduction by Claude L. tthews.of the Military Training Camps Association, under whose auspices the men are taken training ‘and which arranged the meeting. General Answers Cheers. The bearing of Gen. Guglielmotti, as he stepped into full view of the men, bespoke his 34 years as a sol- dier; and afoused cheers of length and depth:-— The General gave a short review of the exchisive interview which he gave a Post-Dispatch reporter on a train bringing him to St. Louis Tues- @ay, and which he repeated yester- day at tha; Chamber of Commerce Boole in the Planters Hotel. Then he made the eyes of the men light up with Tales of the valor of the Italian private—the ‘lit Italian,’ as the General te ited him. “I am telling you these things,” the General said, “so you will know fomethinig-Of the bravery of your mothers in-arms.

We have been hog-tied, gagged and are about to be delivered to our enemy, the United Railways. And there is no help for us so far as we can see. We have no one to fight for us, unless it is your paper Apparently the strength of the enemy is so great that within the next few weeks we will be held up in aid of that financial wreck.” The war is not responsible for the “rot- ten” condition of its affairs, nor has it ever made a single move to “clean house’ and get rid of the evils which have wrecked it. Now comes the war and the just demand of the employes for more wages, and the public is sandbagged and made to stand and deliver. For two years the United Railways have been fighting to make the people come across. .They got everything they: asked for, and the city got nothing. The referen- dum will knock out the one-sided fran- chise, but in the’ meantime, unless relief |. is had from some unexpected quarter, the advance of 20 per cent in fares will be col- lected. We ar® spending billions of dollars and our life’s blood to make the world safe for democracy. What a pity it is we cannot make St. Louis safe for our pocketbooks! 2. aa : Tee ned oer ener, OL A A i a te Ai amc lbcnc tse Argent ANOS MO CDR Hear “ - a ° j a 5 ‘ . > otis A Patriotic Colored Girl. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have just returned from viewing the Red Cross parade, which I thought was beautiful and the floats were grand. Now, we have our dear ones, fathers, brothers and sweethearts, fighting in the trenches, getting wounded. They need the care of a nurse. Let us colored girls serve our brave warrior. They would love, I know, to have the care from their girls. So why not allow us to join and do our bits in help- ing to win the war? We havé willingly bought Liberty Bonds, thriftystamps and are devoted to the Red Cross. Our boys are fighting shoulder to shoulder with the British and French. Now, if you would just allow us, we will be more than will- ing to go over in No Man’s Land. A DEVOTED SISTER OF A BROTHER “OVER THERE.” Figures for the Thoughtful.

Mo. as second- | || measured time—New Year’s Day. | tween William H. Taft and Theodore Roosevelt ' THE GREATER MEMORIAL DAY. Memorial Day, a fixed place in the calendar commemorative of civil strife in our country, has had a larger meaning since our war with Spain. Its associations as it again recurs this year have been still further enriched. The years when less of the moving and more of the narrow, perfunc- tory quality crept into its observance are at an end. Next year will see it take on = greater splen- dor in precious memories and tender sentiment. In the future our minds will turn on the anni- versary to the mortuary heights of new Arling- tons. Tens of thousands of hearts will be tied to grave-sprinkled parks of Gettysburgs and Chicka- maugas and Vicksburgs located in foreign lands. | Of the many holidays recognized by different peoples, but two are of common observance. One commemorates an event of such supreme impor- tance that the Christian era dates from dt, the Christmas anniversary. The other merely marks the beginning of further rounds in the cycle of a A third holiday of common world-wide recogni- tion is soon to be added. Memorial Day is one of the things our soldiers take abroad with them, a gift to our enemies as well as to our present com- panions in arms. We may believe that as a legacy of the war it is destined to have a place in all national systems of marking time. Although it had its origin in our own domestic quarrel, the holiday is founded on a sentiment universal to all humanity. Fixed for a season of the year when thought is naturally directed to national heroes and when it is peculiarly agree- able to pay tribute to what they have done, the new kinship of the world will erect it into the Greater Memorial Day when peace comes. Since the coming of Christianity’s Founder, nothing has mankind or been as potent in profound ‘influence | Can it have a worthier or more enduring mon- | set apart in our future chronology and dedicated memory of the fallen defenders of the most cher- ished ideals of the human race?

RECONCILED AGAIN, Just why the personal relations existing be- should be a matter to which the news from France during the suspense of an intensely critical stage of the war is subordinated is a little puzzling. Comment on the reported fact that these two men | met the other day, shook hands and engaged in conversation “for about a half an hour,” is volumi- nous and advances a great variety of suggestions. But an incident of about the same sort was re- ported during the Hughes campaign two years ago. It was not recorded that the two had a half- hour conversation at the former meeting. In fact, the occasion was not favorable for half-hour con- versations. But the forced smiles the two ex- changed and the grip each took on the hand of the other were described with the minuteness of historical episodes. How many other meetings of reconciliation have they had in the intervals be- tween the two that came to public attention? The former meeting was held to have a sig- nificant bearing on Mr. Hughes’ prospects of | Probably of nothing any more reliable than the | ¢ fact that Messrs. Taft and Roosevelt seem to need such a point that they will submit to pay- ing an increase of 20 per cent in the street car fares of 760,000 people upon the false pretext that it is necessary to do this in order to give 3000 of their number an in- crease in wages of 35 per cent? There are said to be 50,000 union men in St. Louis, counting an average of five in the family; this makes 250,000 people here who are either union members or are the family of a union member. Can it be possible that these people can be hood- winked, bullied and bluffed to such an ex- tent that they can be made to believe they have not been sold an enormous “gold brick" when they submit to a raise of 20 per cent in the car fares of their number of 250,000 people, in order that 3000 of their number might get an increase of pay to the amount claimed of 35 per cent? Thirty-five per cent is greater than 20 per cent, but 35 per cent of 3000 is a great deal smaller sum than 20 per cent of 250,- 000 or 20 per cent of 750,000. The union people themselves stand at a point where they will get the hot end of the poker in this deal if they permit it to go into effect. Cc. L. DELBRIDGE. U. R. Rebate for Red Cross. Te the Editor of the Post-Dibpatch. Your paper today carries a suggestion from “B. I." to the effect that the United Railways should be compelled to give re- fund slips with each cash fare of 6 cents, pending decision of that issue. His sugges- tion is no doubt, well meant but would be impracticable. The U. R. already delays its cars enough now by the working out of its complicated transfer system, which re- quires transfers to be punched from two to five times, simply to prevent some ‘messenger boy doubling back on a ride and depriving their coffers of a nickle oc- casionally. If they had a common sense Wansfer system that did not require so much red tape, they could load their cars im about half the time. That the cars during the rush hours should be further delayed by the handing out of refund slips is in my mind out of the questibn.

With the railroads already unified, no reason existed why the express business of the United dependently, each restricted to certain mileage of the railroad system. The merger of the American, the Wells Fargo & Co., the Adams and the Southern express com- panies has large possibilities in more economical management and improved service, even if war conditions give no promise of an immediate re- duction in rates. The four old corporations will not be dissolved, at least for the present, but the bond of union among them will be a sort of holding company, with a capital of about $30,000,- 000, to be known as the Federal Express Co. t The Adams Express Co.’s stock formerly had no par value, but at the $100 a share assigned to it a few years ago it has a total issue of $12,- 000,000 worth and a bond issue of $19,437,000, most of it distributed as a dividend to its stock- holders. The American Express Co's no-par- $100 a‘share to $18,000,000. The company, in July, 1913, distributed to its stockholders as a special dividend $4,500,000 of the stock of the Wells Fargo company, between which company and the American close relations existed. The total stock outstanding of Wells Fargo & Co. is $23,967,400. The aggregate of the three companies’ | c stock and bonds is $73,404,400. A considerable part of this aggregate is repre- sented by property other than that employed in the express business. Up to the time the compe- tition of the parcel post began to be felt three or four years ago, all three companies paid handsome cash dividends amounting to 10 and 12 per cent during a series of years, besides occasional gen- erous dividends in stocks and other securities.

There is no relief of humor or hope in any part of it. or of war itself, as satanic and bestial. without an ideal, is that and nothing more. So it must appear to many in the armies of the value stock amounted, at the same valuation of | central nations who have been disillusioned and who know that they are fighting in an evil and a lost cause. until the end, because we have a right to hold it.

As the colored rock- ets and star shells light up the darkness of the night, so their wit and cheerfulness relieve the otherwise universal sordidness and gloom of the battle area. war has the sanction of heaven and earth. Those who fight it have a right to step high and smile as they gO forward, poration may serve as an index of the extent to which the old concerns had excessive flotations on which the public was compelled to pay interest. Whatever happens to the railroads after the war, this express merger may be expected to be permanent. The benefits of a single express serv- ice covering all the mileage of the country will make it proof against unscrambling. = = " i a A GENERAL LEONARD WOOD Secretary of War Baker says that Gen. Leonard Wood will not be sent to Italy. However, the orders detaching him from the forces he com- manded at Funston and assigning him to duty at home while those forces go abroad have not been countermanded. Does this mean that a man of Gen. Wood's great experience and undoubted military capacity is not to be utilized in a war in which the need for such experience and capacity is very urgent? To those who knew the Wood temperamental lim- itations, the suggestion that he be sent to Italy seemed a particularly happy one. He returned from his brief visit to France with new claims to favorable consideration. While in the line of duty he had had a narrow escape from death in the explosion of a gun that caused sev- eral fatalities. He had suffered painful wounds in the accident. But on arriving in Washington he was credited with having furnished the mis- information on which malcontents in Congress based bitter attacks on our war dispositions and with having made critical comments in private eonversations. So far as is known, the War Department took no cognizance of any disparaging statements at- 4 ed as saying must have reached, in time, our re- think about it?

The hardest thing on earth for parents to realize is that the world does move, even as exemplified in their own children; that there are new ways of thought, new standards of propriety, new ideals that are bet- ter than the old, and that parents do not invariably know more than their children.

Often a heavily-seasoned sauce covers up the more desirable vegetable flavor. Overcooking of vegetables impairs their flavor. are destroyed, while vegetables with strong flavors, such as cabbage or | onions, become disagreeably strong if cooked too long. Overcooking also destroys the attractive color of some vegetables. Cook summer vegetables as soon after they are gathered as you can, in order to preserve the flavor. If they must be kept over, keep in the icebox or some other cool place. Let wilted vegetables soak in cold water to freshen them. If vegetables must stand after paring, covering | with cold water will prevent wilting and .discoloration. EFORE cooking, put head vege- tables and greens in cold water for an hour, with one tablespoon of vinegar, to remove insects, then wash very carefully. Drain all boiled vegetables as soon as tender—they become soggy if they are allowed to stand undrained after cooking. The water drained off may be saved for soup stock. Most vegetables should be conked in sma]l am@unt of water, because a part of the mineral salts dissolves out into the water, and is lost if the water is thrown away. © Covwk whole wher possible. Tender spinach or lettuce leaves require no added water for cook- ing. If thoroughly washed, enough \water will cling to the leaves to pre- vent their burning. * Delicately flavored vegetables should be steamed or cooked slowly in a small amount of boiling water until tender and the water boils away. TRONG-FLAVORED _ vegetables may be cooked uncovered in a large amount of rapidly boiling wa- ter, and the water changed sevcral! times during cooking. Starchy vegetables should be put on to cook. in a sufficiently large amount of boiling water to cover them. Boil gently, and keep kettle covered. The time required for cooking vegetables depends on the kind, siz, and age of the vegetable. You must use your judgment in deciding when they are done, but a time-table may help you. Memorial Day Flowers. INCE Memorial day was institut- ed it has been customary on this day to decorate with flowers’ the graves of the dead who in their lives gave service to their country. Now- adays such decoration is not confined merely to the resting places of those whg rendered patriotic servicé, but is extended to graves generally of those whose surviving relatives and friends are influenced by the sentiment of the day. The peony seems to be the most popular flower for use on Memorial day, and is always available in one or other of its types. _ ‘There are, of course, plenty of other flowers obtainable, roses, car- nations, Easter lilies, callas, pansies and the like, and shrub flowers. At many functions in honor of the day the new rose, Francis Scott Key. is a feature of the floral decorations. This rose originated in Baltimore, and was named for the author of our national anthem. Very delicafe flavors? Cheerful Dining Room Easy to Decorate _ Furnishings Should Be Plain and Restful to the Eye— How Old-Style Furniture With Much Carving May Be Improved. By Andre CHEERFUL dining room ex- A erts a strong influence on the health and comfort of thc whole family. Gloomy surroundings have an injurious effect on .the nerves of most people, sometimes making them melancholy or giving them a feeling of peevish dissatisfac- tion. If you think this is far-fetched just try to remember how you felt on entering the ugly dining room of a dingy hotel or boarding house. The nature of its furnishings makes the dining room rather more formal than most other rooms in the house or flat, and for this reason it’ is easier to furnish consistently than the living room. Select furniture that is dignified and conservative in design rather than something more pretentious and ornate. The size and shape of the furniture selected should of course depend on the dimensions of the room. Modern reproductions of Co- lonial, Sheraton or Adam styles are among the most restful and satisfac- tory models, the long low sideboards or buffets of such sets being most attractive. Yo or Craftsman furniture is good, too, though it lacks the graceful lines of the styles just mentioned and is often rather too large and clumsy for small rooms. But whatever kind of furniture you decide on let the de- sign be simple. Don’t let anyone per- suade you ‘to buy a sideboard with a high ornate top or chairs with many curves and curlicues in the backs. Such things, besid being in bad taste, have long be out of fashion. The modern sidebéard, if it is worth buying, is low with sim- ple lines and is made without shelves or mirror above it or has plain, low shelves. If you have been’ unfortunate enough to inherit or in an unwary moment to buy such a thing as an ugly high sideboard, it can he im- proved by a little skillful surgery. A CERTAIN sideboard that be- longed to a friend of mine was a family relic of the ’80s. It was of light polished oak with the Dupont. lower part built upon regular rect- angular lines which, barring some splotches 6f meaningless carving, was not objectionable. Not so the top, which had a large expanse of mirror flanked each side with bevies of useless shelves supported by turned pillars and bordered by bal- ustrades. The whole structure was topped by what looked like the roof of a porch. My friend asked me what to do with it and I told him the only way was to remove the top, which could never be made to look like anything but a barber’s wall fitments or the back of a bar. The mirror was taken out, put in a white enameled frame and used for a glass to hang over the dressing table in a bedroom. All the “gingerbread” work surround- ing it was used for firewood. After these things were removel the sideboard assumed an air of modest dignity that it never had be- fore. It was then washed in strong ammonia and water ‘to remove the varnish, and stained a dark Flemish oak. A set of plain shelves the same length as the sideboard and stained the same color was set on the top of this sideboard to hold pretty china. The top could, if preferred, have been left plain and a long colonial mirror, one of the kind divided in three portions with moldings, hung just above it. INING-ROOM wall papers D should either be plain or have two-toned geometrical figures. Striped papers are sometimes used and also tapestry papers. Warm, light tones should be used for rooms having a northern exposure and col- ors ljke grays and greens should be put in rooms having a great deal of sunlight. This does not, however, interfere with any preference one may have, as all colors with the ex- ception of yellow or red can be had in either a warm or a cool tone. For floor coverings rugs are great- ly to be preferred to carpets. The usual plan is to have a large square rug in the center of the room, al- though sometimes two smaller rugy are used on each side of the table. | THE “GOOD-BYE-LESS” TELEPHONE TALKER P] ESTERDAY a man called me on y the phone. He had something to sell. “I will look at it to- morrow at 3 o’clock,” 1 answered. I thought that would settle it. I was very busy at the moment. Yet he went on talking. “T will go over it with you at 3 o’clock tomorrow,” I persisted. Still he continued to explain how very important it was for me to see this thing and I repeated that I would be pleased to discuss it with him at 3 o’clock tomorrow. Still he would not say good-by and went on talking. ‘And when he finally was through, he said, ‘‘I’ll tell you about it tomorrow at 3 o'clock.” The ‘‘good-by-less”’ telephone talk- er is the parasite of time and the personal and public pest. He drains your energy and makes you form a dislike to him that injures his friend- ship with you. When, oh when, will we learn to say good-by°over the telephone at the proper time? When, oh when, will we realize the impertance of brevity on business telephones? Brevity is not only the soul of wit, but the stimulant and strength of business success. When will people understand that when they ring a telephone they are “but- ting in” on someone's time and occu- pation? And if they are seeking something for themselves they are intruders, pure and simple. If a business man received a let- ter he can take his own time about reading it or answering it, as the im- portance of the communication pre- sents itself. But when he is called on the telephone he is taken away from that which he is doing and made to respond immediately. There- fore there is nothing so inconsider- ate as to take this unfair advantage just because it is easy to ring a tele- phone bell. Three safe rules to fol- low are: State your business. Get your answer. Say good-by. F everyone would only realize how often too much explanation ‘in- jures their cause, they would realize By Sophie Irene Loeb. the tremendous importance of being to the point. You can readily recognize the thief of your time on the telephone. He who introduces himself at length by inquiring into your health and the weather wants something from you. The person who insists on mak- ing a personal appointment without telling you the nature of his busi- ness has. something to “put over.” When the visiting stranger phones to tell you how he knew your whole family, he has some favor to ask, And as for the social side of it, there is a limit and a price on pa- tience. There is thé habitual talker who does nothing but make talk. He thinks he is being friendly, when, most of the time, the person on the other end of the line is thinking when will he ever quit? There is the person whom you in- vite to dinner. One sentence would settle it; but he will begin to tell you how sorry he is, if you had called up a little sooner; or how Uncle John came to town and how he would have to entertain him that evening; and so forth and so on, until you wish he had just said “I am very sor- ry, I have another engagement and cannot come tonight; would be glad of another opportunity.”’ To train yourself in talking over a telephone is the saving grace i the scheme of things today. Time is more precious than radi- um, The Worth of Butter Substitutes. HE Journal of the American Medical Association, on the authority of Drummond and Halli- burton, points out that oleo-oil mar- garins, which have as a basal fat an oleo-oil prepared from beef fat, can fully replace butter in the diet- ary. Vegetable oil margarins, on the other hand, prepared from cocoa- nuts, peanuts, etc., are by no means equal to butter and the oleo-marga- rins in nutritive value. ‘ 4) 5% / THe YEN ID NAS | | Diten \ ’ ! Ar Q) OKs iG | | A ; Dreamland. OME ONE had read Tommie a story about the field mice and how they lived in little housed and cooked and baked just like big folks and how the corn elves made the vegetables grow. "eg : One day Tommie found it too warm to run about and play, so he went to the hill beside the vegetable garden and sat down under a tree where it was cool. A bee buzzed above Tommie’s head and a big fly hummed near him and. then a beautifully colored butterfly alighted on his knee. ‘They are all right here, the field mouse’s house and the elves and Bunny Rabbit's house as well,” said the butterfly, and away she flew. Tommie lodked after her, wonder- ing what she meant, but it was only a second—she was gone and when she returned she had a little fairy with her. “Do you wish to see the elves and the home of the little field mice?” she asked Tommie. “Yes if.you please, I should very much like to see them.” “You shall then,” said the little fairy, and she waved her tiny wand before his eyes. Between the cornstalks at the edge of the garden he saw a little white house, with green blinds, and through the open door he saw Mra. rheeom raat rolling out ple crust at a e. f ‘ pies,” Tommie heard her gay. “I just must, for the children will be home from school and they will be as hun- gry as little foxes.” Just then Tommie’s attention was attracted by a dozen or more queer looking little men dressed in green. just like the cornstalks. When they saw Tommie they. started to run but the fairy waved is 6«6Call: ‘cicht,” is just to watch you awhile; he in Dreamland and cannot harm yo I don't think he would anyway, for I am sure he is a good little boy or [ should never have brought him here.” The elves slipped a little lower on the stalk and began to fashion the coverings for the corn. They patted and twisted the long green husks until Tommy thought they never would stop. Then the elves jumped to oo ground and looked at their work. | HILE they were busy looking, Tommie heard a noise, and looking around he saw five little field mice scampering toward the little white house. Mrs. Field Mouse came to the door. “Oh, my goodness!” she ex- claimed; “I haven't put the corn on to boil,” and out she ran ‘into the garden. “Here! Here!” called the elved. “Don’t you spoil our corn! We have worked all the morning to finish it, and we won't let you destroy our work.” But Mrs. Field Mouse told them she wanted only one ear, and she in- tended to have iit, and up a stalk she ran. When she reached the top the elves ran up to the stalk. | “Let’s close the covering so tight she cannot get out,” they said. “She has no right to spoil our work.”" _. “You shan’t hurt her!” cried Tem- mie, forgetting all about the warn- ing of the fairy. “She only wants one ear of corn for her ildren, Now you let her alone.” ‘ Tommie touched one elf to push him off the stalk, when his hand be- gan to feel cold and queer, and, run- ning into the garden, Tommy saw « little white rabbit. Tommie rubbed his eyes. He was awake now, he was sure, for he did see the rabbit and the corn was wav- ing its silken tassele in the breese: but the house of the field mice and the elves were nowhere to be seen, or the fairy, either. “Tf I had not spoken I should not have missed the dinner Mrs. Field. Mouse was preparing for her chil- dren,” said Tommie. “I wish I hadn't, for Iam hungry, but I mt | not let those elves harm the little mother mouse, and all she wanted was one ear.” “Oh, here you are!” said Tommie’s grandfather. “It is dinner time and we thought you were lost. Why, how that corn has grown! It only needed a few hot days like this to make it grow. It will soon be ready to eat.” Corte 3, 5, ees, Nagew O safe for democ vanity for anyone—even ised at its erstwhi idual or organizatton ' VICKY VAN b> h- A Story of Love and Mystery | b= hoa By CAROLYN WELLS | ‘Winnie, you're positively low- | empty. half century will ge ‘ by Caroyln Wells.

I've written him, and though I’ve not mailed the letter yet, I shall send it off tonight. Then when he comes to talk it over we can see what he says and abide by his judgment. “That's a good idea, Rhoda,” and Ruth Schuyler nodded assentingly, “IT too, want justice, and if Fleming Stone thinks he can find Miss Van ‘Allen, let him do so.” It was 6 o’clock then, and Win and I went home, leaving the Schuyler ladies to their own discussions.

Another surprise awaited me at home. On the hall table lay my own mail, and as I picked it up, and ran the letters over, there was one from Vicky Van. I hastily concealed it from Winnie's sharp eyes, for I had no notion what it might divulge, and hurried with it up to my own room. | Impatiently I tore it open raced through its contents. Dear Mr. Calhoun: Thank you deeply for attending to my errand. Owing to your kind- ness I received the letters I want- ed. Now, will you do me one last favor? Come again to the house tonight, and take a small parcel which you will find in the Chinese jar in the music room. Keep this for me and if I do not and ask for it within a year, destroy it unopened. I wish I could be more frank with you, you have proved yourself such a stanch friend, but I cannot control cir- cumstances and so I must bear my fate. I do not know what Mrs. Schuyler will think of it, but I have written her a letter. When you see her, try to make her realize it is useless to hunt for me, Since I can keep hidden for this length of time, my retreat is not likely to be discovered. And now, my kindest of friends, good-by. a VICKY VAN. ' STOOD, staring at the letter. I read it through a dozen times. Of course, I would do her bidding, but my heart rebelled at the finality ‘of the lines. I knew I would never \hear from Vicky Van again. As she said, since we hadn't traced her yet, we never could. | I wondered where she could pos- sibly be. And Julie, too.. Somebody was shielding them both. They couldn't be disguised or anything of that sort, for they had left the house at dead of night, without luggage or —and I hadn’t thought of this before —without money! How could they have found shelter, save in some triend’s house? Of course, Vicky could have snatched up & purse as she ran. Per- haps that was what she flew up- stairs for.. And then, maybe, she went down the back stairs—but no, the waiters must have seen her that way. And Luigi was in the front hall a moment after Vicky disap- peared: Aside from my personal interest, I hated to think I should never know sust how she did get away. For now, I had no hope that Fleming Stone or anyone else could ever find the girl. She was too canny to be tak- en, after her successful concealment so far. I went downstairs after a time, but said nothing of my letter to Aunt Lucy or Win. They were eagerly discussing the latest news, and Aunt Lucy was say- ‘and they do say he’s a marvel. I hope he'll find the girl, if only. to jearn the mystery of her disappear- ance. | “Oh, he'll find her,” assured Win- nie, “I’ve heard a lot about him over there and he’s a wizard!

But I was glad I had not told them of Vicky Van's letter tome! . I waited until well past midnight. and then, after seeeing the post pa- trol pass Vicky's door, I:softly went out of my own house, and across the street. I walked calmly up the steps of Vicky’s home and sadly put the latch- key in the door—for the last time. I felt as if I were performing fu- neral rites, and I entered and closed ‘the door behind me, softly, aa one does in the house of death. I went up the stairs, in the gloom. It was not black darkness, for a partly raised blind gave me a glim- mer of light from the street. Into the music room I went, and by my pock- et flashlight, I took the lid from the Chinese jar. But there was no parcei inside. Amazed, I threw the light down : There was no use looking else- where for the parcel—I knew Vicky well enough.to know that sh®\would do exactly as she had said.

CARDINALS MEN AND WOMEN GOLFERS IN RED CROSS MATCHES NEW YORK, May 30.—Miss Elaine Rosenthal, formerly woman Western champion, and Chick Evans, national amateur and open golf champion, have been communicating from Chi- cago with Jerome Travers, former national champion, and Mrs. Wi A. Gavin, the English player, with a view to arranging a series of Red Cross golf contests in both Eastern and Midwest cities. It is expected the matches will be arranged for mid- summer. All four golfers are now engaged in a series of Red Cross ex- hibitions, and the proposed series would differ from these only in that there would be a series of contests between the same pairs. LAFAYETTE CLUB'S FIRST BOXING SHOW POSTPONED Inability to complete arrange- ments of the new clubhouse is the reason given for the calling off of the first boxing program of the La- fayette Athletic Club, which had planned an opening day card of four events for this evening. The Lafay- ette Club has quarters at 1826 Pine street and has engaged Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan as instructor and manager. The contests scheduled for tonight will take place next week, it was an- nounced. Rudolph to Join Braves. BOSTON, May 230.—"“Dick” Rudolph of world’s series fame has at last come to terms with the management of the Boston National League base- ball club. It was learned here last night thmt at a conference with Man- ager Stallings in New York Rudolph who has been a holdout over the sal- ary question, agreed to join the team.

Unless these clubs improve, heart disease may carry away some of the more unsound, due to the fact that the world’s champions of last year are down in second division, while the Giants, before today’s contests, had a lead of but one-half game on the Chicago Cubs. Other important shocks to Old Man Dope have been suffered. The Knot Hole Gang of the National League administered the worst by running promptly to the cellar and remaining there, although Pittsburg was supposed to have first mortgage on this place. The Detroit Tigers caused a some- what similar gasp in the American League, although in both St. Louis and Detroit the “‘race-is-is-not-over” sign is being hung out by the man- agements. The chances are Uncle Sam will save both from the igno- miny of an eighth place finish. . What the Cubs would have done to the staggering clubs of the Grandma League had Alexander remained, it is a pity to dwell upon. Mighty Cobb Is Ailing. For *the first time in many sea* sons, Hugh Jennings is leading a club that is in eighth place in the Ameri- can League. pennant struggle. In former years, the heavy batting of Cobb, Crawford and Veach, and be- fore that Cobb, Crawford and McIn- tyre kept the club up in the running. However, this season conditions havé changed. Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the major league batting king, has had trouble finding his swatting eye this year, his mark being around .275, while at present he is suffering from a bad shoulder. Bob Veach, another cog in the Jennings machine, also is out for a few days, he having ieft for his home, where his wife is ill. Oscar Stanage, the catcher, had a thumb knocked out of place in yesterday's battle with the Indtans. . Tiger Pitchers Fail. However, this does not end the woes of Jennings. The pitching served up by his boxmen, with the exception of youngster Erick Erick- son and the veteran George Dauss, has been hammered to all corners by the opposing batsmen. The veterans have fallen down completely, while the youngsters, excepting Erickson, have proved failures. At present the Tigers are 60 points behind the Nationals, who are in sev- enth place, while they are 304 to the rear of the pace-making Red Sox. Johnson’s Streak Is Halted. Walter Johnson's winning streak of five in a row and his.runless in- ning record, which had reached 40, were stopped by the leading Red Sox yesterday when they beat the fireball king in the second half of a double header, 3 to 0. The Red Sox scored a run in the first round, while two more cafe in the eighth. Johnson now has a record of 7—5 for the season, while he has allowed 22 runs and 72 hits in 100 2-3 innings, Jones, one of Barrow’'s young flingers, op- posed Johnson and allowed five hits. The Red Sox also won the first game, 4 to 2, Carl Mays outpitching Southpaw Harper. Mays gave six hits and his rival 10. Giants Still Slipping. John McGraw’s Giants are still slip- ping and the tremendous lead gained early in the season has been cut to half a game.

Danna Fillingim, the spitter ob- tained by the Boston Braves from the Indianapolis club of the American Association, won his foyrth straight game for Stallings yesterday when he shut out the Superbas, 3—0, with four hits.

DENVER, Colo., May . 30.—This time it was John the Barber himself who was trimmed beautiful- ly. Despite Barber Reisler’s threat to prevent Dempsey, the newest heavyweight fight star, from again competing except under his manage- ment, Dempsey last night “fought” at Denver, Colo., Pelkey of Chicopee Falls, Mass., in the first round of a scheduled 15- round event. Ringsiders who thoughtlessly at- tended without gas masks, were al- most overpowered by the odor of th combat. Dempsey rushed his opp nent savagely at the very start, whereupon Pelkey tripped and went to the floor without being struck. He valiantly regained his feet, aided by some major league language issued by his seconds, and there he fell into aclinch. — He promptly fell out and down, when Dempsey uppercut him on the chin, and a count of six followed. At the end of it Pelkey arose and took the rest of what was coming to him —a clean knockout. Dempsey Is Sued. | Isempsey is now tied up in Wis- consin and Minnesota with law suits aggregating $50,000 and restraining orders which interfere with his ap- pearance in bouts. Reisler, who has what seems to be an iron clad con- tract calling for the services of Dempsey, has said that he would pre- vent Dempsey from fighting again wherever he attempted to battle. The Dempsey-Pelkey march had not been widely advertised. Pelkey is an indifferent fighter. It was a blow from his fist that was followed by the death of the former white hope champion, Luther Mc- McCarthy, in Canada a few years ago. , | Fulton at Ringside. Fred Fulton and his manager, Mike Collins, saw the contest. Promoter Mulvihill of Danbury, Conn., who re- cently made an offer of a $25,000 purse for the Dempsey-Fulton match, on July 4, was introduced, and re- peated his offer. Hg is here to sign both men to articles. Fulton has already accepted the proposition to split the purse $12,500 to each fighter, but Dempsey is hold- ing back. Fulton was ‘given a great ovation by the crowd. Fulton also has fought and knocked out Pelkey quickly, ina fight three years ago. Dempsey stopped. Pelkey-so quickiy that Fulgon had little time to get a line on his fighting style. M’KINLEY TEAM WINS FROM CENTRAL OUTFIT, 14-13, IN POOR GAME The McKinley High School team wen to a tie for first place with Yeatman in the Interscholastic League by defeating Central, 14—13, in a loosely played game at High hool Field yesterday afternoon. Pitchers of both nines were ineffective, while the fielding also was away off color. Catcher Thompson of the winners was charged with five boots. Fries and Schaefering did the pitch- ing for McKinley, while Bremser and Ellis worked for the losers, It took three hours and 10 minutes to com- plete the contest. The final games of the season are scheduled for Saturday, with Cleve- land playing McKinley and Yeatman opposing Central.

Several business men headed by Charles Hagerling last night purchased the team from the Lincoln, Neb., Baseball Amusement Co.
