Have tradi- tions changed in four years? Have interests changed in four years? Aye, my friends, not only did the plat- form of the Republican party declare in favor of bimetallism four years ago, but the leaders in the Republican party were advocating four years ago what they de- nounce now. The Republican candidate for the Presidency, so late as 1891, made a speech at Toledo, in which he denounced Mr. Cleveland’s policy and said that by contracting the currency he made money the master and all things else the servant. Your distinguished citizen, ex- Congressman Evans, has a right to think now what Mr. McKin talked five years ago, even thaugh Mr. McKinley does not think now what he thought then. (Ap- plause.) They tell us that we cannot affect silver by legislation. The Republicans who act with us can take the report filed by Secre- tary Rusk in 1890 and they can point io pages where Mr. Rusk shows the effect of silver legislation on the prices of products, and also adds that the rise in the price of silver has raised the price of farmers’ prod- ucts. If rising prices with the farmer were good than, the d now. y are goo +}. You did not hear at that time this talk | “about rising prices hurting the laboring men.

WHERE MONEY COMES FROM. ment Gets It and How It Is Distributed. | CANTON, O., Oct. 7.—Shortly after 8 o’clock this morning a small, but enthusi- astic delegation reached this city to call upon Major McKinley. They came in a special car attached to a regular train, the car being gayly decorated. The party came from Goodland, Ind. They were introduced to Major McKinley by A. P.

Then the government gets some money from the sale of its public lands and from its postal service—and from these several sources there comes the money that is annually required to meet and discharge the public expenses. ) It takes about $430,000,000 a year to con- Keep its wheels in operation. Now, if the platform they say there is a good chance ) Government had the power to make money as some people seem to beli or had the power to double the value of a thing by the stamp of fiat, it would not need to resort to taxation—it would simply set its mints to work and make the necessary amount of money to pay its running ex- penses. It would have paid off the national debt long years ago in this way. There is another thing I would have you know, that the Government cannot get gold or silver except through the Custom- ‘houses or the internal revenue,offices with- out giving something for it just as you and I have to give something for it if we want gold or silver. Now, how does the Govern- ment dis ute this money? Somebody asked me questiOn the othér day. The Government distributes its annual receipts under app ations of Congress to its creditérs. That is the way the money of the Government is distributed. It is dis- tributed to the army and navy, for public improvements, for rivers and harbors, for the great postal service of the country, for the expenses of Congress, for sustaining the judiciary, to pay the principal and interest of. the public debt and to pay pensions of soldiers and to other creditors of the Gov- ernment, and there is no other way for the Government to distribute any money ex- cept to pay it to the people to whom it owes money. There is no such thing as a gen- eral distribution of money by the Govern- ment of the United States. The point I want to make in tke utée talk I am giving to you this Morning is this—that the Government det not create create money, and that wha money it needs it has to trom taxes, either by a sys- tem of direct taxation or by a systém of Mrdirect taxation known as tariff; and that if the Government wants to have any gold and silver minted for its own uses, it has to pay for that gold and that silver just as you and I would have to pay for it if we wanted it for our purposes, The idea that the Government can create wealth is a mere myth. There ig nothing speech, but in a deliberate message to prices. He also hj 3 Josephine arns.- El that can create wealth except labor, as my friend to the right puts it. Now the best way to get this money ts one of the serious questions in this campaign. Is it easier to raise it by direct taxation, by taxing the people in their occupation on their property and on their lands, or is it not better to raise it by putting the tax upon the foreign products that come into this country to seek a market in the United States? (Ap lause and cries, “You are right, Major. The latter is the policy Fut — ot the Republican party. The ublican party be- lieves that the great bulk of the money re- quired to pay the expenses of the Govern- ment should be raised by putting a tax on the foreign products that come into this 88 to compete with American prod- ucts, If we could create money by merely aah yy our mints running, then there would no necessity of taxes. Now there is another thing I want to talk to you about for a moment. We want our money good. I do not care what employ- ment we may be engaged in—whether we work in the shop or on the farm, or in a profession, we want the dollar we have in circulation as good as our flag and as un- questioned as the currency of any country in the wond; and that is the purpose of the Republican party to-day. (Applause.) Ang we intend to support this Government by taxes on foreign imports and internal revenue; and we intend to have enough revenue in the public. ig omg 4 if the people elect us to power to pay our bills. (Cheers.) The Government is just like an Individual; when it has not enough income to pay its expenses it has 5 give its notes to raise money; it has to do that or quit business: and when the Government of the United States has not enough money to pay its running expenses the only thing it can do is to borrow money, and that is what has been done for the last three and a half years. That is what we propose to stop. I thank you, my fellow citizens, for this call and it will give me rn leasure to yay rt every one, individ (Loud eers. MARRIAGE LICENSES. Pure 18k wedding rings.

TER, Sar cap tae HII HG e "GREAT CROWDS TO HEAR h. Captured His Audiences by His Oratory and the Force of His Free Silver Arguments, _ INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 7.—The recep- _ + tion accorded William Jennings Bryan on his arrival in Indianapolis yesterday was en- tmuslastie. He made five speeches here, two uin the afternoon and three at night, and at each meeting he addressed immense audi- ences, one of which was nearly as large as that addressed by him on Boston Common, he largest of the campaign. ' Mr. Bryan addressed the * crowd che day at the State House. Every inch . tvallable standing and climbing room was aken.

It is the most cowardly and treach- erous of metals. It makes no treaty ‘that it does not break. It has no friends whom it does not sooner or later betray. Armies and ‘navies are not maintained by gold. In time of panic and calamity, shipwreck and disaster, it becomes the chief agent and minister of ruin. No nation ever fought a great war by the aid of gold. On the contrary, in the crisis of greatest peril, it becomes an enemy more potent than the foe in the field. But when the battle is won and peace has been secured, gold reap- pears and claims the fruits of victory. “Those are the words of the distinguished Republican Senator, and those words are true. Goid is arrogant, tyrannical in time of —— and it deserts any nation in time of r and never is a friend when a friend is needed. And yet our opponents are in- sisting that we shall maintain this gold standard until foreigners come to our relief. Our opponents insist upon building a com- mercial fabric upon a handful of gold which ay be drawn away at any time and leave us helpless at the mercy of our enemies. “My friends,:I know that our policy is Democratic, for many reasons. In the first place, our policy has the indorsement of the Democratic convention, and that is suffi- cient to determine what Democracy is to- There must be rule by a mafority or a minority, and Democracy has always meant the rule by the majority. The Demo- crats of the nation, acting with more free- dom and more directness than in any pre- vio convention, have declared that the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1, without waiting the aid or consent of any other na- tion) is Democratic in this country. “There are other reasons why we know our Pause is Democratic. It is because ev- ery undemocratic influence in this coun- try is arrayed against us. A cause is known, as an individual is, by the compa- ny he keeps. If you will look at — ny which the cause of our 2 — vou will get some idea of the A charac- ter of the cause. Every man who has prof- ited by special legislation, every trust that seeks to impose upon the ple, every syn- dicate that fattens on public adversity and every corporation that thinks it is greater than the law which created it—all these are opposed to us and give us a certificate that we are doing good work for the people. There is another reason. If you will look and see who have opposed Democracy in the past, you will get some idea of the cor- rectness our position. Let me read you what Thömas Jefferson said in 1800 of the combination which was then 3 De- mocracy. These are words of Jefferson: ‘The aspect of our politics has wonderfully changed since you left us.“ He was writing to a friend who had gone abroad. In place of the noble love of liberty and republican government which carried us triumphantly through the war, an Angli- can party has sprung up, whose avowed purpose is to draw us. over to the sub- stance, as th have already done to the forms, of the British Government. While the main body of our citizens remains true to republican institutions, inst us are the Executive, the Federal Judiciary, two out of three branches of the Legislature, all the officers of the Government, all men who prefer the calm of despotism to the boisterous sea of liberty; all merchants and Americans trading on tish capital; all speculators and brokers, and with them the banks and dealers in the public funds (United States bonds)—a contrivance in- vented for the purpose of corruption and for assimilating us to the rotten as well parts of the British model. name to you the a tes who have gone over to these — — Who were once Solomons in cou ns in the field, but who have had their heads shorn by the harlot of England. In short, we are likely to preserve the liberty we have ob- tained only by unremitting and per- Be, but we shall preserve it.“ Those are the words in which Jefferson describes the opposition to the Democratic ry in years — * „Show me the man who goes to Europe oftener than he crosses the Mississippi Riv- er and I will show you a man who thinks this country cannot do anything unless En- gland helps us to do (t. ow me a man who thinks this nation cannot survive un- less it draws on British capital; show me a man who thinks that our financial policy ought to have for its object the ng of money abroad, and I will show you a man who would make the people bow their necks to foreign oppression and observe whatever financial 2 our creditors de- sire to force upon us. It seems that they had apostates in those days, and it seems they were Solomons in council and Sam- sons in the fleld. Why, my friends, you would suppose that Jefferson was describ- ing the present condition, because every man who leaves the Democratie party is willing to make affidavits that he is a Sol- omon in council and was a Samson in the field. But Jefferson said that the Govern- ment would be preserved in spite of them. He said that the liberties of the people would be retained in spite of them, and, my friends, I believe that is true to-day.

Their object in this is two-fold. They wish to use bonds as a foundation for corporation control of the currency. English bankers are more interested in this than in any other point, since, as long as we are dependent on cqrporation paper, they can monopolize our bonds, and through their clerks and agents in this coun- try incorporate banks of issue through which to control our business—and our pol- The “great families’ of New York City and Boston have this object also, but they are interested in perpetuating the debt as a means of perpetuating their so- cial power and family prestige. They can no longer entail their estates or hand them down through the eldest sons as is done by the European nobility to whom they sell their daughters, but if they can put from a million to twenty millions in the bonds representing a permanent debt, they have the whole force of the Unitel Statés, its army and navy, and its taxing power over the people, pledged to perpetuate their family fortunes and to prevent the fraudulent accumulations of speculative monopoly and unjust privilege from being redistributed through the Even those among the Plutocrats who have consented to an income tax are determined that the debt shall be perpetuated, for if they can accomplish that, the income tax will be a mere tub to the whale, Let us suppose that a man who has twenty millions invests ten millions of it» im United States bonds at,4 per cent. Ordinarily he would have to pay a large sum per year to have these taken care of in a safe-deposit vault, but by carrying them to the Treasury, he can not only have them taken care of for nothing, but by organizing several of his dependents as a bank of issue, he can get on his bonds nearly their face value in National bank notes, which are practically indorsed Supposing that he lends these out at between 6 and 7 per cent, his income from the interest on the bonds and the interest on the notes would be in round numbers a million a year on his ten million investment. much as two hundred thousand a year income tax, he would still be eight hundred thousand a year ahead of the Government without having done anything what- ever to earn a cent of the money. And at the same time he would have the Gov- ernment pledged to keep his family “in its true position in society!“ It is no wonder that the hundred-millionaires, ‘Whitney, are determined to defeat the people at any cost. For the restoration of popular Government means the end of all these Alnaschar dreams of an American nobility, supported by the Government through its taxing power, living on usury guaranteed by the Government and producing nothing except a grow- ing annual increment of that insufferable insolence which even now characterizes them in their dealings with the American people. If he paid even as represented by Hanna and that appeared in that paper prior to that time. Mr. Bryan’s views on the pension ques- tion are clearly and explicitly stated by himself in his letter of acceptance, In that letter he says: No nation can afford to be unjust to its de- fendefs. The care of those who have suf- fered injury in the military and naval serv- ice of the country is a sacred duty.

Speeches delivered for hire rarely have any effect upon the people. ell Hannacrat Palmer has not yet ex- plained why he favors allowing the Pull- mans to bring Federal troops into Illinois for use as Pinkertons against the protest of the State government, though he is violently opposed to allowing any Federal soldier to enter Illinois to assist in pre- serving order after such overwhelming calamities as the Chicago fire.

Excess of coinage over availa- ble production It should be borne in mind that this enor- mous deficiency in the supply of gold has occurred since 1873, when silver was demon- etized by Germany and the United States, and is conculsive proof that the constantly increasing demand over the supply is stead- ily and surely increasing the value of the gold dollar, for not even the most persistent advocate of the gold standard can deny that it is a universal law of commerce that prices are largely regulated by supply and demand. a It may be said that these figures are not correct, because it is not possible to coin more than is produced, but one has only to answer that it is done by the gold grabbing nations recoining the gold after other na- tions as fast as they get hold of it. Another fact which should be borne in mind is that nearly all of South America and Mexico, China, Japan and other smaller nations, which are now on a silver basis, will eventually be foraed to adopt the gold standard unless some strong nation like ours takes the lead in the emancipation of the toiling masses, and if that should hap- pen, the demand for gold will be so enor- mously increased that gold dollars will be worth 400 cents instead of 200 cents, as now, and correspondingly harder to get.

One of the Roman Catholic clergymen of Chicago has been converted to silver, it is announced. He deposited $500 in gold in a bank for a parishioner some time ago, and when later the owner of the money wanted *. to hoard the bank refused to pay out anything but silver. That gave Rev. Ed- ward Kelly another view of the gold stand- ard from what he had held. The Yellow Idea of Fairness. From the Washington Post. Mr. Bryan voted for Weaver in 1892 on the advice of Mr. Cleveland's campaign managers, and because it was believed such action on the part of the Nebraska Demo- crats would best serve the party.

Scientific explanations are not sought for by the throngs that visit Bailey’s yard. They prefer that the thing should remain a mystery unless some supernatural twist can be given it. . The darkies flock to the place in droves and their expressions of wonder are amus- ing. Not for an instant will they admit that it is anything but a 12 from heaven. At their prayer meetings last night there were many references to the great wonder in our midst.“ i There was a little dough-faced street arab whom everybody knew by sight, but not by name, who directed the newspaper party to the scene. He assumed an air of great importance and hinted that he could ex- plain the whole thing. But bribery that went as high as a big round silver dollar bluffed him down. “I daren’t tell,” he said, making off in discomfiture. Mr. and Mrs. Bailey take their new-found notoriety complacentiy. They are not stay- ing awake at nights to solve the story of the dripping trees. But they would really be glad the phe- nomenan were abated, for their domestic privacy is sorely invaded. Mr. Bailey has decided not to board up his place and charge admission to the yard. He thinks the trees will stop leaking, as he puts it. If they don’t, and the crowds keep coming, he says he will chop them down. Mrs. Bedford, who lives just north of the Baileys, says she has noticed the drizzle from the trees for several days.

The Brooklyn Magnate Wants to Foist Dave Foutz on St. Louis. A rumor emanates from Brooklyn to the effect that Dave Foutz, who, for the past three years, has managed the Bridegrooms, may come West to manage the St. Louis Browns. It is given out that Foutz resigned the management of the Brooklyn team. As a matter of fact, be was fired for incapability. He failed utterly to show any managerial ability when with the Grooms, and when the team finished ninth this year, below the much-abused Freedmanites, it was too much ox Ch2rley@Byrne, and Long Dave“ was et go. Byrne, however, thinks a whole lot of Foutz personally, and it is not unlikely that he will try to unload him on the unsophisti- cated Chris Von der Ahe, He was not good enough to manage the Brooklynites, but he would suit shrewd Charley Byrne for manager of the Browns, That Byrne would like to see Foutz in St. Louis is well known.. When the foxy Brooklynite was here last spring he talked freely to a Post-Dispatca reporter about the condition of base ball in St. Louis. He scored Col. Von der Ahe with no stinted hand for the way in whieh he handled his ball park and base ball team. He condemned the mating of base ball and racing on the grounds, and gave Chris, a general tearing up for letting the patronage fall off in St ouls. Byrne's team lost money on thei trip here, as the patronage at Sportsman’s Park was very poor owing to the poor play- ing of the Browns, and the Grooms’ share of the receipts did not pay their bus hire to and frum the park. Byrne was sore. “What this blankety blank dumb Dutch- man wants,” said Mr. Byrne, “is a man like Foutz to manage his team. Foutz would be the man for him He would stand between him and the players as Comiskey did and would not let him abuse them. You know Foutz 1 his baseball training here under Comiskey and he knows Chris and how Commie managed him. You don’t want a man who can man- age a team so much as you want a man who can manage Chris, Yes, sir, Fouts would be a great man for St. Louis.“ While the chances are that Chris does not want Foutz he may be persuaded to accept him if Byrne thinks enough of Dave to offer Chris an inducement in the way of another 8 or two. And then Fouts is probably a cheaper man than Dowd. Foutz is well known in St. Louis. He pitched here for the old Browns in 1886 and 87. In 88 the was sold to Brooklyn with Caruthers and Bushong. He has played with Brooklyn ever since. He was a very good all-round player, but as a manager he was a fallure. St. ulis wants Dowd. — The Rumor Confirmed.

REAL ESTATE DEALS. Sales of Property in the Bell and Mc- Ree Places. The Index Realty Co, sold for George H. Augustine to W. Albert Swasey, a well known architect, 100 feet on the north side of Bell place, by 195 feet deep, at $125 a foot. The purchaser has secured in this a bargain, as property in this place is held by the Bell Place Realty Co. at $160 to $175 per front foot. Mr. Swasey expects to erect a handsome residence on this lot for a client. Bell place is one of the highest residence W ie E he i at, Ss i 1 THE ANCHOR TO Laclede the Phoenix Will Do Business.

The first step toward preparing for a rainy day was taken Tuesday afternoon when the Phoenix Light, Heat and Power Co, of St. Louis, was incorporated. The nominal capital is $2,000, divided into 2 Shares of $100 each. The three stockholders are all tly connected with the Laclede districts in the city. Uniom Avenue in its pel front has been beautifully laid out, and the work of making Delmar avenue at its side of the same character is now rapidly | progressing. The residences of Eugene T. Willidms and E. P. Bell are now completed and oc- cupied. The handsome one of James L. La Prelle is now under way, and the archi- tect, J. B. Legg, will commence on Mon- day next the taking of bids for the erection of a beautiful double house for the Snow- qualmie Realty Co., to cost $25,000. This house is to be built entirely of stone, and will be erected directly opposite the lot purchased by Mr. Swasey. The Index Realty Co. also recently sold to a capitalist the magnificent suburban site situated at the northern extremity of the Bellefontaine road, and known as the “Tandy Homestead,” containing about 160 acres of ground, for $32,753) in cash. The purchase was made for future investment, it being the terminus of prospective north- ern suburban property. The sale of Henry Hiemenz, Jr., at McRee place last Saturday was not only a pheno- menal success as an auction sale, but there seems to be no let up for the property. There seems not to have been enough lots to satisfy all the buyers who were present at the sale, and inquiry a being made for more. There were over 500 lots originally in ‘the tract, and no McRee place lot has ever been sold at a loss to its owner. Mr. Hiemenz has always fostered a healthy growth in prices of the properties that he has handled rather than an ephemeral boom, and the consequ¢nt results are shown in the improvements made in such tracts. There are probably thirty or forty unimproved lots in McRée place belonging to different owners, hp might part with their holdings at a modgrate advance, and any person may dur win a full conviction that en he wants to sell he can sell at a profit.

William Winslow, whose acquittal in Criminal Court No. 2, last week, caused Judge Harvey to criticize the jury, was arr Tuesday night and this time the case ig so clear against him that it will be hard to find a jury who will have nerve enough to acquit. Winslow is a pickpocket and purse snatchér with a record. He has served four terms in the Work House. Brinkman of 3526 Illinois avenue, She was standing at the corner of Broadway and Park avenue waiting for a street car when Winslow approached her. He brushed up against her and at the same time grabbed her pocketbook which she held in her hand. She screamed and Winslow ran down the street. Patrolman Sheehan heard the young Woman's calls for assistance and took after Winslow. After running a block, Winslow was caught and the purse taken from him. It contained $9.80 in money, two plain finger ri s and a breas®pin. h to wait iss Brinkman was brave enou for the patrol] wagon and ride to the Second District Police Station in it, sitting on one side of the policeman, while Winslow was on the other. The wagon was crossing Carroll street, when Winslow made a desperate attempt ‘to escape. He leaped to “the other side of the wagon and was about to jump to the pave- ment when the * grabbed him. Winslow attempded to throw the policeman of the wagon, which was moving rap- y. Finally Sheehan got Winslow down on the floor of the wagon and sat on him. Miss Brinkman held to the railing and trembled a little, but she never asked to be let out. At the police Station. Winslow gave his name as August Turner, but the desk Ser- geant identified him. Winslow lives at Seventh and Hickory streets with his father and two brotuers, and has broken into the criminal world within the last three years, although he is 30 years old. In 1893 he was first arrested in this city on a charge of petit larceny. In the rotunda of the Court House he had placed bis hand in the skirt pocket of a woman and extract- ed a purse containing $19. for that offense. On three other occasions he did time for similar,.offenses. A half dozen other times he was arrested for snatching purses, but could not be convicted. November 2, 1895, he snatched a purse from the hand of a young woman at Ninth street and Park avenue. It contained a diamond ring and $45. When arrested the ring was found in his possession. 2 young woman identified him as the t He was released on — and within a month was sent to the workhouse for petit larceny. He was to have been tried last spring for the purse snatching of November 2, but as he was then in the Workhouse the case was continued until a week ago. After a trial of two days, in which the defense offered no evidence and in which the State proved the case conclusively, the jury had the nerve to acquit Winslow. The verdict so surprised Judge Harvey that he said that the jury, by their verdict, had “committed an abortion on justice and brought the jury system into contempt.” Early Wednesday morning. Wirslow was taken + mon the Second District Station to the. at the Four Courts. In the language of Chief Desmond he will “stow him away this time for good.” You must register if you desire to cast your ballot at the November elec- tion.

Jimmie Brunell Wants the Secret Serv- ice to Do Its Worst. “Tell im to crack is bloomin’ whip an’ go a’ead.” So said Jimmie Brunell, the veteran crook who is camping on the trail of Charles Ulrich, the secret service spy. Jimmie had a clipping from the Post- Dispatch a month old with him and he wanted to reply to a statement in it made by Secret Service Agent Callon. Callon said that Brunell’s real mame was Court- mney and that there was a hold-up sen- tence of ten years against him for circulat- ing 4 in counterfeit money many years ago. ret Service agent intimated that if Ceertney carried out his purpose to interfere in the e of Ralph Creece, tempted to become a counterfeiter “+ Charles Ulrich and then betrayed by him the hold-up sentence would be revived. “Hi’ve been hout of town,“ said the veteran, “which is why Hi ‘aven’t been hin before to say me bit in repl y to this Callon. Just tell ‘im to let loose is bloody, bloom- in’ dogs of war; Jimmy Brunell or Court- ney or — Ae name e knows me by is an- kering for to do is worse.“ “What is il name?’ said a reporter.

Their Wish to Use the Words Na- tional Democratic“ Is a Part of Their Plan. Chairman Gam Cook of the Democratic State Committee said Wednesday: “We will not permit the words ‘National Dem- ocratic’ to go at the top of the ee ticket. “AS a matter of fact they will try to use the caption for the sole purpose of having their ticket th out. “It is reliably reported that for ten days they have been considering whether it would hurt the Democratic party more by filing their ticket.or by pulling it down. „If it is filed at all, it will be merely as a blind. Their sole objec? is to hurt the Dem- ocrats and aid the Republicans, and if they decide that this can best be done by having no State ticket they may attempt to file their nominations under he caption Na- tional Democratic,’ for the sole purpose of having it shut out, because of its conflict with the law.“ Chairman Cook’s view of the matter is borne out by the compact bebween the Wall street wing and the Republican State Cen- tral Committee. That compact is that the gold bolters shall do all they can to turn the machinery of the State government over to Filley and to defeat Senator Vest for re-election to the United States Senate. To carry out their promises they must throw the bulk of their votes to the Re- publican nominees on the State ticket and to Filley’s candidates for the legislature and the State Senate. The goldbugs have been securing signa- tures for the purpose of getting their tick- et on the official ballot and now have enough for that purpose. They assert their intention of filing the ticket under the objectionable caption, and then will depend on the Democratic State Committee to throw it out so that they may be free to attempt to deliver to Filley the goods he has bargained for. Within the next six days all the State tickets of the different parties in Missouri must filed with the Secretary of State. Oct. 14 is the limit fixed by law for filing. If all the State tickets are filed there will be six for the voter to pick from on the official baltot. In their order as nominated and their numerical strength they are: Democratic, Republican, Populist, Prohibition, Socialist. aes and Palmer-Buckner Wall street cke It is yet uncertain whether the Populis will fill a complete ticket. The ——.— Will be determined at the meeting of the Populist State Committee Thursda o further steps have been taken to secure fusion with the Democrats and noth- ing may come of Saget rl 8 session.

A Kaffee-Klatch war is on at Belleville which promises to throw the Salvation Army hostilities into the shade, Kaffee-Klatch suggests to the uninformed something akin to the Kuklux Klan of other days, but the connection is purely philo- logical. A Kaffee-Klatch is an assemblage of women who over their cups of steaming “Kaffee” and Kaffee-Kuchen“ tell each other their troubles and “kKlatch” about — neighbors and their neighbors’ fami- es. There are two of them out in Tower Grove addition, and the rivalry between them is so strong that conversation never jags at their meetings, and the time be- tween is filled in with lively hand-to-hand skirmishes, in which the children take an active part. The letter-writing fad has struck one of the factions, and the members of the other have received a grand total of fifty-four missives, all of them abusive and most of them obscene. Postage was saved and the wrath of Uncle Sam evaded, by placing them in coal sheds and back yards where they would be found. A committee of five ladies, headed by Mrs. ‘William Boggy, called at the 2 station Tuesday afternoon, and after being seated in a row, told Chief Obst all about it, protesting all the while that they had never said a word to their tormentors. Mrs. Boggy produced a picture which she said had been placed in her coal shed over night. It was crudely executed but it ex- posed in a graphic maner the alleged 2 practices of one Tower It was handed over to the chief. He took one swift look at it and blushed down to the roots of the chilblains an his toes. He wished to be alone. He said: “T will send a man down for all the letters. Are you ladies going right back home now?” They fluttered in surprise and answered in chorus: “Ach, nein, wir eon zu eine kaffee- klatch.”’ JOSIE RECAPTURED. Her Escape From the Detention Room Not Long Lived. Josie Davidson has gained the reputation of being the only girl that has escaped from Matron Harris’ detention rooms in the Four Courts during the last four years. Josie is only 16 years old, but what she lacks in experience she makes up in dex- terity. Last Saturday the police found her hanging about the Spruce Street Mission. She was given in char of Matron Har- ris. That night Mrs. Harris started on a trip East, but she got no further than Union Station, when she was taken very ill with heart disease. When she was carried back to her rooms in the Four Courts, Josie, whe, was in the kitchen, pretended to be greatly excited, and rushed out the open door, saying she was soing — a that abe elieving that shg would bring a physic- jan in such a case, she was all ena ao oe That was the last seen of her until 8 when Special Officer Keeley found her room from which she had be sent to the House of good HELD UP BY WOMEN.
