It anyone should tell this story in New York, people wouldn't think much of it. They ve been accustomed to just such hap- penings for many a day. In St. Louis it is different. The story reaches the public through the complaint of J. W. Schrader of 1808 Madison street to Chief Swingley of the ne De- partment. Schrader imagined that the only way to get a political position .was to pay a politician to “pull’’ for him. This he did, with sad results to himself and to cer- tain other individuals, more or less mixed up in this petty political intrigue. Schrader had been telling all his friends around Madison street that he was sure of an appointment. He had things fixed.“ he said. Last Monday, when Chief Swing- ley appointed the last batch of new men and Schrader’s name was not among the lucky ones, he awoke. He's been howling ever since, Feeling that he had been thrown down, Schrader went to see Chief Swingley. He told the chief just why he had anticipated ne of the vacant places falling to his lot, tnd from his point of view he had good reason to expect it. His story was that about two weeks ago he gave F. H. Krietemeyer, member of the House of Delegates from the Tenth Ward, $50 to get him a job on the Fire Department. Krietemeyer, he said, wanted $300, of which $100 was to go to Chief Swingley, $50 to the medical examiner, $25 for a wine supper for Chief Swingley and his friends, and $125 was to stick to Krietemeyer’s fingers for his services. The chief naturally opened his eyes. He was indignant beyond measure. e idea of anyone saying that money would make him put a man on his department made his blood boll, and the champagne per Was a particularly sore point with bim. The chief told Schrader whatever ehance he ever had to get had been ruined by his attempt at bery..In the nex ace he told Sehrader.te get his mon —.— promising him a thorvugh investiga - Thursday Schrader reappeared before the Chief. He had with him Jom W. Zeuschel, Krietmeyer’s partner in the real estate business at 1338 Franklin avenue. The import of this conference was that Schrader had gotten his money back, not from Krietemeyer but from Zeuschel. Why Zeuschel should take such interest in his partner's affairs under the circumstances the House of Delegates man explains in his own way. The true inwardness of this transaction is hard to get at. One thing is certain, and that is that Schrader gave up $50 to either Krietemeyer or Zeuschel. Zeuschel aid it back when the bond was raised. chrader refuses now to discuss the mat- ter. He says he is not quite ready to talk, for fear his chances of getting on the Fire Department will be ruined. Later, he says, he will put his charges in the form of an affidavit and stand by them. Zeuschel is also strangely silent. He was seen Thursday night by a Post-Dispatch re- porter. Things to his mind are not yet ripe either, but he says he is going to have . big story for the newspapers in a few ays. He and his former partner, Krietemeyer, are no longer friends. Zeuschel explains this 4 saying that the . came about over this $50 payment Of Schrader's. have lived for twegty-seven years in St. Louis,“ he’ said, as an honest man, and 1 don’t want to be associated with those who do this kind of business.“ When Delegate Krietemeyer was seen, he branded the story as an absolute lie, so far as his connection with it is concerned. “I got the first inkling of this through my littie boy,” he said. “My son was in my office one day when I was not there. Zeuschel and aman named Hull, a friend of Schrader’s, were there. The boy heard them talking about money that someone was going to give up fora position. He told me about this, but I said nothing. “Wednesday morning I met Schrader on the street near my house.

So the game was re- newed. Jast as the new deal was made another crash of falling glass came, but this time two hands clutched at the window sill and a moment later a form clad in a blood-stained night gown appeared at the window. “Shoot | me! Shoot me!” yelled the apparition: ‘I. want to die. If you dgn’t shoot I'll kill myself. The man and woman had strong nerves and pulled the apparition through the window, put him on the bed and summoned help. The night clerk identified the spectre as Joseph Piper of Warrenton, IH., who occu- pied the room above the card players. He was taken to the City Dispensary, where a oor tage of glass was removed from his cuticle. Piper has had a severe attack of chills and fever. He went delirious last night and, putting a chair up near the window, jumped below. This was just outside the card- players’ room. He was badly cut about the hands and knees. FRANK A. REBD’S SUICIDE.

Beibert’s motives in this mat- . it is signifi that everyone at e l who comments u the Audi- tor’s conduct at present points 71 his great desire for 4 continuation of his longer -oceupancy of the office he now holds as the inspiring cause of his activity. Mr. Seibert is a shrewd politician, and his friends say he foresees inevitable defeat of the Democracy in Missouri! in the next cam paign unless the party gets together with all possible speed and presents a solid front to the enemy. He has been watching the drift very closely since the Pertie Springs convention, and is convinced of the over- whelming sentiment of the party in all parte of the State for an early and ag- gressive campaign under the management of the enlarged ang reinvigorated commit- ee. As before stated. Mr. Seibert had taken the initiative in forcing recognition of the new. ? nee! ‘The personnel was of the best. I do not believe that it could be excelled. In proof of this I need only mention the names of a few of national celebrity, whose pres- ence, wisdom and loyalty to Democratic faith was a guarantee of the propriety of such a gathering, and the success of its deliberations. I refer t@ Senators Daniel of ViIrgnla, Walsh of Georgia, Jones of Ar- kansas, Jervis of North Carolina, Harris of Tennessee, Call of Florida, and in this galaxy of national light was Stone of Mis- couri, our chief executive, whose unswerv- ing Democracy, unquestioned integrity, profound ability_and unfailing love for the toiling masses of the people, have made him what he is. the best Governor that the great State of Missouri ever had. Not a creature of accident, possessing more money than the ‘brains, but a man gifted with natural abil- ity, sleepless energy, firmness of charac- ter. which united with his spotless record and the splendor of his intellect, has made him a name and a fame that will never die. And yet my friend, you observe that the gold bug organs, the metropolitan and subsidized press, persist in libelous ut- terances against these splendid men and 9% ner cent of the Democratic party, who echo their faith.“ “Do you think the cause of silver is on the decline?“ “No, sir, and when the organs of plute- cracy, combines and trusts utter sueh state- ments they do so in the teeth of convincing evidence to the contrary. Look at the great commonwealth of Lllinots. She pulled the rope and rung the silver bell, the re- frain of which old Missouri wafted_ from Pertle Springs to the Empire State of Texas, from whence it was hurled to Mississippi, the home of the illustrious Lamar and the pride of the South.“ “Rut, we are told that the work of the II- linois convention did not represent the true sentiment of the Democracy of the State, and was only the work of Hinrichse other like politicians. What have you to say about that?“ “Simply this: convention was regularly convened by authority of the State Committee upon thorough notice, and in representation and enthusiasm it was unsurpassed. This being true, argument would be superfluous Again, after the adjournmént of this con- vention. the Record, a leading journal of Chicago and the West, tested the sense of that great city upon the silver issue by an impartial discussion and ballot, resulting in a triumph of the silverites over the gold-bug element almost two to one. The army of gold-bugs that swarm around the banks, trusts and Pullmans of that great metropo- lis were unable, after a contest of many weeks, to stay the tide, but were over- whelmed by the masses and suffered an in- glorious defeat. “The same test was made in Cincinnatl and Boston, resulting in a victory for the money of the constitution. Texas, Missis- sippi, Illinois and Missouri are but the ad- vance guards of the approaching army, which, in my judgment, will march to vie- tory. Their verdict recently breaks thercrust which for a quarter of a century has smothered the best interest of our common country.“ Mr. Hill, did you see the criticism of the Republic on your attack upon the Ad- ministration in your recent speech at the Washington conference?” “Yes, sir. My attention was directed to it yesterday upon my return from the East, and replying thereto would state that the aforesaid article is a tissue of malicious falsehoods from beginning to end. The rea- son of this attack is obvious. Prior to the chang of ownership of the aforesaid jour- your distinguished editor, K was a true ex- pounder of Democratic faith, and an un- swerving advocate and friend of bimetal- lism: but from the hour of that unfortunate event, from some mysterious and incompre- hensible cause, its Democracy began to wilt and its color an to change.

At the burning of a steamboat on the Hudson River forty years ago, miany of the passengers were drowned. Among the bodies brought up from the bottom of the river by grappling was that of a man known to have been an ercellent swimmer. Around his waist was a belt con- taining nearly $500 in gold.

Peter Joyce of the Third District. The work of purifying the district over 100 women of questionable character have been arrested. a Complaints have been coming in thlek and fast for some time past of the way scarlet women congregate and ply their vocation in the wholesale district along W ashington av- enue, between, Seventh an Twelfth streets. The evil has finally grown to such propor- tions that it became imperative for the poliee to act, and Capt.

It revealed a condition af social laxity and immorality that even the police covered with the names of the women ar- rested, and yet the patrolmen report that they have made arrests in only the most flagrant cases. ' ‘Thursday night six keepers of notorious houses were caught in the raid, along with the inmates of the houses. The keepers are Mollie Lambert, Lou Miller, Bridget Gil- lespie, Annie Spiller, Amelia Hodges an Mary Warfield. In the latter's place a rob- bery is alleged to have been committed. Capt. Joyce says that the raids will be continued nightly until the streets are cleared of loose women. They have run rampant in his district until the state of affairs revealed by these raids is almost be- yond credence. There has been a Vat in- crease in the social evil within the last year. The hard times is attributed as the cause of its growth. obbery and erime are its natural outgröwth and the police are at a loss to know what to do. Among the number already arrested there has been a large percentage Of young girls ranging in age from 16 to ears, Many of them are fair-looking and intelligent. They claim they have been brought to their present degradation through poverty and inability to find employment. Some have those among them who would like to lead lives of purity if the N presented. The women were all sent to the Second District Police Court for trial. Judge Stev- ‘enson is as mich at a loss to know how to act in the premises as Capt. Joyce. The holdover and Work-house could be filled to overflowing within a week, and it is a reform that does not reform.. In addition to this their arrest affords an opportunity for the Police Court shyster and the pro- fessional bondsmen to extort money from ther and the police are inclined to think makes matters worse rather than Dette On the other hand the public demands that they be kept off the streets and the arrests are bound to continue. women have been fined, but Judge Steven- son has continued a large majority of the eases in order to carefully canvass the sit- nation and arrive at some solution of the troublesome problem. A survey of the arrest record she’s that fully o per cent of the women ca ght so far are not residents of the Third Distriet, but go there from along Pine, Chestnut The cortdition of affairs in the negro dis- trict is positively revolting. It has pe- come so bad of late that it is dangerous for people to pass the alleys, and even on some of the streets. Even the police are afraid in certain places. Two years ago a negro woman who was caught in a raid slashed Officer Fanning across the face with a knife and disfigured him for life. She was sent to the penitentiary. LOOKING FOR TROUBLE. And, of Course, Malachy Lavin, Got What He Wanted, Malachy Lavin, colored, an attendant at St. Vincent’s Asylum, didn’t know what he was going up against early this morning when he tackled Jerry Sullivan, the saloon- keeper at 1105 Clark avenue. Lavin got a day off Thursday and ineidentally got drunk. 7 Early Friday morning he went into Sul- livan’s place and announced that he was looking for trouble. Jerry said he was sorry but that style’of liquor was not kept in his place. Lavin took affront at this and, pull- ing a razor, tried to Bem over the bar and slash Sullivan. Jim Grant, a celoréd porter in the place, lied Lavin by the leg just in time to prevent Jerry from annihilating him, and hustled him into the street, where Officer Diek Fay arrested him. Lavin was in the First District Police Court charged with carrying concealed weapons and disturbing the peace. His case was continued until Aug. 2%. As soon as this had been announced Sullivan went to the warrant office and swore out a warrant charging assault and battery against Lavin.

N Every street railroad in St. Louis h adopted .a car fender, and the offici state ¢very car will be properly equipped under the law as rapidly as possible. The | Jaw goes into effect Sept. 1, and after Oct. 1 a penalty ot $100 a day will have to be paid by the companies for every car unpro- vided with a fender.” On the Missouri lines, Olive and Market streets and Laclede ave- nue, Mr. P. C. Maffitt is betraying great consideration for persons who may be struck by the cars. He and his assistants have devised a fender that will not only prevent broken bones, it is %claimed, but also provide victims with rather a soft couch after they are struck. It consists ef an iron frame cove with a rope net-. ting. The netting, Mr. Maffitt thinks, will be as soft as a hammock, and far prefer- able to wire. The fender has been approved by the Board of Public Improvements. The work of equipping the cars has not yet commenced, but the fenders, it is stated, will be placed as rapidly as they can be manufactured. The Southern Electric Railway clings to the fender it has used for 8 and which has been approvell by the B. P. I. Manager Joseph 8. inary told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that thty had proved effective all along, and that the company sees no reason for changing. The fender is the invention of Congressman Tom Johnson, one of the owners of the road, and is patented. Secretary James H. Roach of the Union Depot lines, stated that the company’s idly as pos- ble. The device approved for this road is known as the Providence, and is manu- — Bap in Providence, R. I. It is not auto- matic. * We believe it preferable to an automatic fender,“ said Mr. Roach, as it is not neces- sary for it to strike the object béfore act- ing. As it stands, it seems to be a protec- tion. With the application of the brake by the motorman it drops lower. Of course there still depends something upon the pres- ence ef mind of the motorman. We had some difficulty in finding a fender to meet requirements, arid were three weeks testing made with sand bags. ether fenders will save us anything in damage suits is still an open question. upon how effective they are.“ Capt. Robert McCulloch, manager of the Chicago synidcate lines, comprising all the — J roads save the Lindell, expended u great deal of time upon the two fenders his company has adopted. He was assisted by the engineers of the road, and thinks he has solved the problem. One of the fen- ders to be used on double truck cars on the lines which have loops'“ terminus; has been approved by the Board of Public Improvements. The other to be the cars have to be switched, was submitted to the board Friday. The former contriv- ance extends in front of the car perman- ently. It rests as closely to the ground as possible at all times, and drops lower on the application of the brake. he other fender is so arranged as to slide beneath the car when it is switched or when it is neces- sary to couple two cars. Both fenders, Capt. McCulloch states, are being manu- factured as rapidly as possible by the Ex- panded Metal Co. We have been trying to devise a suitable fender ever since the ordinance was passed,“ said Capt. McCulloch. It is only recently that we could decide upon one. We have fender models scattered all over the shops. The main difficulty was in finding a fender that could be placed out of the way when necessary. Folding back over the dash- board, interfered with the coupling, and it was also desirable to find one that would not necessitate placing two on one car, or carry- ing one from one end of the car to the other. “If we are saved anything in damage suits the expense attendant upon e uip- ping the cars will soon be paid.

The great Colored Supplement will be resumed in next Sunday’s Post-Dispatch, and it will be one of the best and bright- est ever offered to Post-Dispatch read- ers. A full page cartoon on its front page will picture the many and remark- able varieties of Presidential bees now buzzing around the Presidential bee- hive, all ready for the grand “swarm” of 96. So comprehensive is this latest political colony that even the “New Wo- man Bee” is there, and, like the New Woman in general, she appears on the top of the heap. Other brilltantly colored comic cuts show how to avoid the “bicycle hump;” the seaside outing of a juvenile political club; a policeman’s panic, etc., and nu- merous other comic cuts, original and selected, brighten the pages, while the reading matter is of the best quality of fun and humor. It will be a star supplement, and the many thousand admirers of this special feature will rejoice to learn that under greatly proved conditions the Colored Supplement will from now on continue to be a brilliant section of the Sunday Post- Dispatch. a“ 8 wr DID BRICE WINK? Senator Brice was chairman of the State Convention which “Assembled at Springfield on Tuesday. The reporters present failed to record whether or not he winked his left eye and smiled sar- donically when the following passages in the platform adopted were read: We congratulate President Cleveland that his efforts in favor of the repeal of vicious laws and the upholding of the credit of the country have been successful. We congratulate our Senator, Calvin 8. Brice, for the earnest and effective support he has given to the President in these mat- ters. One of the “vicious laws” which Presi- dent Cleveland made more or less stren- uous efforts to repeal was the McKinley. law, and it is well-known that Mr. Brice did far more than any avowedly Republican Senator to thwart and de- feat those efforts. President Cleveland was so incensed at the time that he wrote a letter in which he referred to Brice and his fellow-buccaneers in the Senate as men “whose treason, like a deadly blight, steals o’er the counsels of the brave and blasts them in their hour of might.” Not content with this, the President wrote a letter to Chairman Willson of the House Ways and Means Committee, encouraging him to continue the fight against Brice and the other traitorous Democrats in the Senate. No doubt these things were in Senator . Brice’s mind when he was dictating the Platform and also when he was praising Mr. Cleveland in his speech as temporary chairman. In thus linking himself and Mr. Cleveland and identifying himself with the Administration fight in Ohio, Mr. Brice demonstrates that he has as brassy a cheek as he has been credited with. S How Mr. Cleveland feels about it has not yet been disclosed. If he possesses a sense of humor, the whole performance must have afforded him a good laugh. mn — is AN ERA UF PROSPERITY. The seventh annual report of the In- terstate Commerce Commission for the year ending June, 1894, shows that the railroads were stilt in June, 1894, suffering from the great depression caused by the panic of 1893. The eighth annual report will doubtless have a different tale to tell. A special report recently issued by Bradstreet's ‘shows that the railroads have entered upon an era of prosperity, which is an unerring sign that there has been a widespread revival of business and that we need have no fears for the immediate future. The first six months of 1894 were even worse for the railroads than the corre- sponding period of 1893. The net earn- ings of 145 railroads in the first six months of 1894 showed a decrease as compared with the same period in 1893 of over 18 per cent. For the same six months this year these railroads aggre- gate net earnings of $102,767,786, being a gain of 8 per cent over last year. Of the 145 railroads included in the re- yn of 126 of the principal thirds show gains, net earnings, over 8 9 not Galy th piven, beet B remember that the Government of the ot St. Louis is wofully in need of some i> we * hs 82 rs «wth on & am: 1 3 We e ee 5 J D n Gen. Jo O. Shelby is dignant because his son, Orville D. Shel- by, is engaged in organizing a filibuster- ing expedition that will go to Cuba and say. Gen. Shelby is the United States Marshal for the Western District of Mis- souri, and in view of the proclamation recently issued by Secretary of State Olney it behooves him to be indignant. But the General cannot be very mad when he recalls his own exciting career and the history of others who have made reputations similar to his own. He will United Sta would never have had the able and tinguished services of La- fayette if the young Frenchman had hes- itated over the laws of nations. He should remember that Mexico would not be in the advanced state of civilization it now occupies if one Gen. Jo O. Shelby had hesitated about crossing the Rig Grande and offering the services of him- self and his men to a good cause. He may also readily recall how Gen. Walker and his little band of Westerners achieved glory and death despite the interven- tion of Presidents and Secretaries of State. , The Post- Dispatch can understand why Gen. Shelby’s fatherly apprehensions and misgivings and his duty as a Federal Mar- shal may call down upon his son all the invectives and warnings in the cata- logue of indignant fathers, but at the same moment the Post-Dispatch believes that behind his lurid language lies the tingling nerves and quivering muscles that an old man experiences when he becomes conscious of the fact that his own dare-devil and filibustering career is over. — —— ̃ꝗ ↄ¶l4ö-. — AN OVERWORKED LIBRARIAN. The venerable and venerated Spofford, Librarian of Congress, has been accused of a shortage of-$22,000 in his accounts and has tendered the Government the amount in full. This he can easily pay, since he is @stimated to be worth more than $100,000 in cash. But the literary world has received a shock at Mr. Spofford’s downfall from which it will be slow to recover. Hav- ing for a lifetime supervised and tended one of the greatest libraries in the world, he was easily reckoned one of the greatest librarians. It now develops, however, that Mr. Spofford’s reputation was due to his marvelous memory. He carried in his head the titles and whereabouts of the million or more books under his con- trol, and nobody in the library was per- mitted to know anything beyond that. The card and catalogue system in use in every civilized country of the world was quietly ignored, and if Mr. Spofford failed to remember—which he seldom did—the applicant did not receive the book for which he had called. Of course, there had to be an ending to this. It could not go on forever, because eventually Librarian Spofford’s memory must fail him, and then the great library over which he has presided would be- come little more than a heap of rubbish Mr. Spofford says that hiseshortage is due to the fact that he was overworked. Eyerybody familiar with the facts can e@ily admit this to be true. A man who undertakes to carry a million or. more books in his head is liable to be over- worked; but this very admission convicts Mr. Spofford of poor business ability and makes of him a very inadequate librarian. —ñ 77k —ꝛ—ꝛ— u — DISEASED MILK AND MEAT. The report of Dr. James to Health Commissionér Starkloff shows a very careless condition of affairs in connection with the dairy cows of North St. Louis. Since Wednesday of last week there have been twenty-three deaths from fe- ver, seventeen of them occurring in a single dairy. In the meantime it is im- possible to guéss how much disease-in- fected milk has been distributed over the city and fed to children, and how far it has led to the usual summer “slaugh- ter of the innocents.” q The truth is that the metropolitan city legal system of dairy inspection. Efforts in this direction have frequently been made, but something has always, hap- pened to prevent success. There have been dairy inspectors before now, but when anappropriation for their pay failed to pass the Municipal Assembly they ceased to inspect. Once we had a chem- ist detailed to analyze milk, but as he could not get money for his work he naturally quit work. Asa result the vast dairy system of St. Louis, upon whick the health and lives of thousands of persons daily depend, is a go-as-you- please, and everybody is His own ignorant inepector. * ö Ts it not time to begin a reformation of the dairies? Is there not enough spare income to the city to provide for a system of inspection that will insure pure milk, healthy cows aya decent treat- ment of thé animals from which the milk is obtained? This is one of the 7 4 important subjects which the people éan have to discuss, because it belongs to every home in St. Louls, and they cannot discuss it too vigorously. The idea of railroad companies being allowed to empty their eattle cars on the commons of North St. Louis, where they know the dairy cows feed, is bad enough for a village; it is criminal in a great city. Dr. James says this is how fever has been injected into the local dairies and he is unquestionably right, but why are these dangerous acts permitted? Sanitary Officer Francis says that I- linois has a perfect stock inapection law, while that of Missouri is a lamentable failure. It h evident that Mr. Fran- cis is correct. We have a small army of meat inspectors, and yet every day cer- to be in- 1 , , 8 ? 52 At least that is what the newspapers we & tee” 7 2 N n N 4 Saad nas only one idea, and want to bring out Gen. Buckner as a Democratic “sound money candidate for Governor. The truth is that Buckner doesn't want to be Governor. This, self- seeking old person wants to be Senator and has for years been laying his pipes for that office—a place he is not compe- tent to fill The bugs want to get rid of him by naming him for Governor.’ At the same time his nomination, they believe, would make Democratic defgat certain. The “sound money Democrats” have already bolted in Nebraska, as they threaten to do in Kentucky. The Demo- cratic State Convention was held yester- day and declared unequivocally and un- compromisingly for free silver. The “sound money Democrats” will hold a bolting convention on Sept. 5 for the purpose of defeating the Democratic ticket and insuring the election of Re- publican candidates. The “sound money Democrats” are rapidly deflning their po- sition as Assistant Republicans. —ͤ — &_-o — — Maj. Harvey Salmon must be regarded as a Man With a Level Head. He is a member of the State Committee, and in a recent interview said: The convention is the supreme court of the party and its decrees are final. If the committee can repudiate the convention, then the com- mittee is greater than the people who created it.” , The New York World scheme of re- porting a yacht race by balloon has proved successful, giving the World the news in advance of all contemporaries. The aeronaut may now help the artist and reporter in enlivening the columns of American newspapers and in a better way than by falling out of his basket. — 2.8 — So many more people are taking the Post-Dispatch than are getting any other St. Louis paper, and the fact is so self- evident, that it seems quite unnecessary to direct attention to the circulation books, Still, these books are open, and everybody may be readily convinced. The New York Democrats are busy nominating a President. Next year the Democrats of the country will take the matter in hand, and the New York Demo- crats will discover that they are a very small minority in the party. — ——-— — In the bankrupt State of Ohio there is so little difference between Republican- ism and Democracy that it is scarcely worth while for a member of either party to go to the polls. Why the farce of as- sembling in separate conventions is con- tinued is a mystery. — — — — The bachelors’ picnic and reunion at Nokomis, III., appears to have been an interesting meeting. As woman contin- ues to take up masculine employments, it is likely that these bachelor assem- blies will be still more numerously at- tended. 2 The receipts from the St. Louis Post- office increased nearly 20 per cent in July this year over the same month last year. This is one result of the Post- Dispatch’s enormous increase in country circulation. 2 1 — eo * A Cincinnati merchant who has failed attributes his misfortune to the Horr- Harvey debate.

Taylors Joe Patchen de- tea ted Holt & Scott's John R. Gentry in the great pacing race at Washington Park, Chicago, Thursday. Patchen won in — 7 ht heats, his time being 2:05. — 4 2:07% The race was paced in a sti — wtih Col, Taylor believes was all that prevented his horse from going the first heat in less than two minutes. Joe Patchen and Fidol may come together Saturday, but if it is impossible to make the match Patchen may go against time. Gentry was a 1 to 6 favorite for yester- day’s race. Myron McHenry, who drove Gentry, bet $500 against $400 on his horse, the Patchen end being taken by an Inter- state Commerce missioner. John Gentry of Sedalia, Mo., was at Chicago in the expectation of seeing his namesake take Patchen’s measure. He bet several hun- dred on Gentry, giving the Patchen fan- ciers odds of 6 to 4.

The Labolds sent Sir Mar- tin to the Tattersalls to be sold and Green B. Morris, who is now here, purchased the animal. Morris took him at once, but when he found out that Sir Martin was a roarer he refused to pay for him. In the meantime the Tattersalls had paid the Labolds the rice obtained minus the sale commission. hen the Tattersalls sued Morris, but the latter won the suit, and the result was the Tattersalls entered suit against the Labolds, The referee's report holds that the Tatter- sails did not pay for Sir Martin under a misapprehension and that the sale com- pany made a mistake in delivering the horse to Morris without getting the money for him first.

C., Aug. . -A pam- Dhlet published by the Patent Office gives a list of patents issued to women by the Gov- ernment. The first patent issued to a woman was in 1809 to Mary Kies for a method of weaving straw with silk or thread. Six years later one was issued to Mary Brush for a corset. In 1862 only fourteen patents were issued to women, that being the larg- est in any year up to that time. In 1870 it was sixty, in 1 over ninety-two, in 1890 over 200, and 1898 over WO. From 1809 to 1888 women's inventions av- eraged thirty a year; from 1888 to 1892, 230 a year, and since 1892; a year. The pam- phiet gives a classification of women’s in- ventions. This shows that wearing apparel leads the list with 160 different patents in thirty months. Then comes cooking” utensils with 100 in- ventions, furniture with fifty-five, heating and washing or cleaning 88 with for- y odd each, sewing and spinning devices and building apperatus with about thirty each, educational and medical apparatus, toys and trunks, about M each: Other lines in which women have tried their inventive faculties are baby earriages, barrel and bi- cycle attachments. printing and bottling apparatus, boxes and baskets, clocks, flow- ers, horse shoes, motors, musical instru- ments, plumbing and presrving devices, screens, stationery; theatrical apparatus, toilet articles and typewriter attachments. Few of the patents issued to women were for entirely new creations. Excluding those especially concerning women’s work, nearly all the other patents were for attachments to some previously existing device. Assauited by Five Men. Special to The Post-Dispatch.
