The saloons of Dago Hill are its distinguishing feature. There is one on almost every corner and each has a dance hall connected with it. Few of the men of Dago H!1) are married. That is why the dance halls thrive. The men work in the brick yards and pipe works in and around Cheltenham. hey make little money, but they spend it freely. Sunday is their gala day. On a bright Sunday afternoon the Hill is run “wide open.’ Each cottage is tenanted by half a dozen men who share the responsibility of paying the rent. Each group regales it- eelf with a keg of beer on Sunday after- noon. The keg is tapped in the front yard. About 7:30 o’clock the girls begin to ar- rive. They are imported from the city and the saloonkeepers pay them $1 a night to drink and dance with the men. They work hard for their money. Joseph Ghiglione, the King of Dago Hill, runs its principal saloon and dance hall, Soa was the first place raided Sunday n t. he accordion player had just struck up @ lively waltz. Three couples had taken the floor and men and women were leaving the bar and rushing to the hall when Patrol- man, Hefele and two other policemen en- re streets are Dago Hill Italians always resent intru- § sion. Fifty men surged toward the police- men. Hefele, though he has a German name, speaks Italian fluently. He ordered the men to stand back and kept his po poate in a semi-circle in front of him. he other policemen stopped the dance and arrested Ghighlione and six of his dancing girls. They were loaded into the wagon. A stop was mace at another hall two blocks away and three more girls were arrested.

They Had Been Together Ali Day and the Fatal Deed Had Not Been Anticipated. James Quigley, an ex-member of the Fire Department, was slain by his friend, John O'Donnell, Sunday afternoon, in a drunken ful fist. O’Donnell, who lives at 142% Papin street, had been with Quigley and a number of alley in the rear of the Walter A. Wood Mowing Machine Company's place, Twen- ty-first and Randolph streets, drinking beer In the aMernoon several of the party en- gaged in pitching quoits for a pastime, w.th a growler of beer as a wager. After several games had been played all the party were in an intoxicated condition. Quig- ley interfered several times in the game, and O’Donnell, who was playing, warned him to stand as‘de. however, and finally the two men became engaged in a fierce quarrel. O'Donnell al- leges thai Quigl y attempted to strike him, and then he struck him several times in the face with his fist.

O'Donnell went back to his game, while some of the bystanders tried to revive the unconscious Quigley. They were unable to do so, and O'Donnell, becoming alarmed, went away to avoid arrest. Officer Dickerson was notified of the trou- ble, and when he arrived he had Quigley conveyed to the Dispensary in an am- bulance. He was dead when he arrived there, never having regained consciousness, The officers had not heard that Quigley had been assaulted, that fact having been concealed by the friends of O’ Donnell. The Dispensary physicians were unable to tind any external marks of violence on the body, and gave it as their opinion that death was due to apoplexy or alcoholism. Capt. O’ Malley, learning of the case, dis- covered the facts stated. He ordered his men to arrest O’Donnell, and the latter was caught at an early hour Monday morning at his home on Papin street. “Death was due to hemmorrhage of a ruptured spleen,’ the report recites, ‘‘and not from a broken neck. The ninth and tenth ribs were broken,”’ SUNDAY WAS A BLANK TO HIM. Carl Beizer Awoke at the Hospital With His Head Bandaged. Carl Beizer’s head is a sight.

He is not sure whether he fell or was pushed. He admits he was con- siderably intoxicated Sunday and most of the day was a blank.

Annie Ryan is at the City Hospital with a badly bruised head, a lapsed memory, & breath that suggests large quantities of cheap whisky and an ache for every bone in her body. Annie is a laundress and works at Hotel Moser. She lives in a single room at Twenty- third and Howard streets and says she is 28 or 29 years old. Her gray locks and the crows’ feet around her eyes would indicate that she missed the truth by half. Annie’s recollection of Sunday’s events are decidedly hazy. She was having a nice, quiet time at home. Saturday Was pay-day and she laid in a supply of whisky with part of her week's salary. Sunday morning her supply of liquor ran low and she started down stairs to replenish her bottle. The stairs were unsteady and at the top she lost her balance. When she was picked up at the bottom she was dead to the world. An ambulance was called and she was sent to the City Hospital, It was found that she needed treatme..t for alcoholism more than for the injuries to her head. Angie was disrobed and ky to bed. She 4id not stir until § o'clock Monday morning. Then she sprang from bed. She did not know where she was and the white cots, with their sleeping occupants, all so quiet, frightened her.

SHE SHOT AT HER PURSUERS AND ESCAPED, THOUGH HER HORSE WAS KILLED. RODE WITH THE DALTON GANG. She Is Twenty-five Years Old, Wears Her Hair Pompadour and Looks Much Like an Indian. . Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. LANAGAN. Mo., Aug. 23.—Cora Hubbard, alias “the Kid,”’ is the newest of new wom- en. She was one of the most active par- ticipants in the bank robbery at Pineville, Mo., last Tuesday, and when finally cap- tured was even calmer than the officers who had her In charge. Though only 25 years of age, Cora has a record as a “bad man,’ and her perform- ances show her to be possessed of a nerve equal to that of the boldest highwayman that ever lived. She was a member of the notorious Dal- ton gang, with whom she rode in male at- tire, and after her arrest a revolver was found itn her possession inscribed with the name of Bob Dalton. How many men she has killed in her career or how many raids she has been engaged in may never be known. Cora is 5 feet 2 Inches in height, stout, active and coarse featured. Her hair is thick and rough and she wears it clipped close and cut pompadour fashion. Her skin is dark and her eyes blue and she has the appearance of an Indian woman. Her home. is at Weir City, Kan. She resides with her parents, who are well aware of the lawless life she has been lead- ing. When arrested she wore a faded cali- co wrapper, which seemed to constitute her entire wardrobe. She had neither shoes nor hat, but these articles were provided by the officers when they reached Joplin, Mo. Cora was captured Saturday at her fath- er’s home. Her brother, Bill Mubbard, who lanned the raid on the bank, was also aken into custody and they were at once hhurried out of Kansas into Missouri, be- fore they had time to demand a requisition. Bill is sullen and will not talk, but the woman is careless and freely admits thai she is guilty. They will be taken to Pine- ville to-day and Cora has promised to show the officers where the fourth robber is in hiding. They refuse to reveal the bandit’s name. The quartette secured $589.23, but of this amount $124.50 was lost by the robbers in their filg@ht, and has been recovered, They also dropped a;paper, showing the plan of the raid and the route of their proposed flight, and the finding of this led to their capture. mmediately after the raid a osse of citizens was organized and followed in swift ursuit. Cora Hubbard's horse was shot rom under her, but she snanaged to escape. White Tennison, another robber, was des- perately wounded, after being ore as far is Routh event City, I. T., and it was he who gave the names of his accomplices, On the day of the raid Cora was dressed as a cowboy, and is said to have made a dashing ppearance. She held the horses while the other robbers looted whe. bank, and in the subsequent chase she took an ac- tive part in the shooting. She is an expert horsewoman and can shoot accurately with anything that has a trigger. Bill Hubbard is 28 years old, slouchy In appearance and very tall. He has led a wild life ever since he was a boy, and has long been regarded as a desperate charac- ter. Fora month or two before the robbery he worked for a farmer near Pineville, and there seems to be no doubt that it was he who planned the raid. Cora Hubbard and Tennison admit their guilt. Bill Hubbard is silent. The fourth robber may be captured to-day. HIS EYE CUT OUT BY A RAZOR. Gilbert Douglas and Dave Acklin Fought Over Minnie Huxley. Big Gilbert Douglas is at the City Hos- pital with only one eye and a badly cut head. Gilbert is a brawny negro, 23 years old, six feet high and weighs more than 200 pounds. He lives at 3008 Papin street and drives a team for Ed Butler. Gilbert owes the loss of his good right eye to his love for buxom Minnie Huxley, @ colored belle of Rock Springs and sharp knife wielded by the strong arm of Dave Acklin Dave is also a teamster, in love with Min- mie She made both dusky lovers think they had the inside track. Sunday night Dave and Gilbert were at a saloon on Papin street. They drank copiously of the amber uid and Gilbert arose and remarked that f. was going to see the finest girl in all ock Springs—Minnie Huxley. Dave jumped to his feet and shrieked out that Minnie was “not for a nigger like him." There were no other preliminaries, The two negroes mixed. Ina flash Dave's razor was drawn and it described several circles before it was brought across Gilbert's face. The right eye was cut out and a big ah made across his cheek. Gilbert was bDiinded with pain and blood and sprang for- ward to renew the = struggle. Acklin dropped his razor and fled. Gilbert was gent to the hospital and the police are looking for Acklin.

MEIER NEED NOT SIG JUDGE VALLIANT REFUSES TO MANDAMUS THE PRESIDENT OF THE CITY COUNCIL. a NORTH AND SOUTH BILL GONE. It Is Held Mr .Meier Is Answerable Only to His Conscience and the Peo- ple Who Entrusted Him Power. Judge Valliant, in Division No. 6 of the Circuit Court, handed down a decision Mon- day morning in the mandamus case brought by the North and South Railway Company against President E. F. W. Meler of the City Council to compel] him to sign the bill conferring an extensive franchise upon the company. The application for the writ is denied, In his opinion Judge Valliant drawe at- tention to the fact that while other affirma- tive matters were pleaded as justification in the return, the evidence was addressed only ~~ hea one relating to the reading of the According to the journal of the Councll the bill was read the third time. According to the oral testimony the third reading was in committee of the whole. It is immaterial, he says, whether the respondent’s decision that the bill had not been read three times was right or wrong, if it was a question for him as President of the Council to decide. All the authorities say, that if there is, {in bps faith, a question for him to decide. and the duty of signing or refusing to sign the bill depends on that decision, he cannot be controlled by mandamus, even though his decision be wrong. Thus it will be seen that the judiciary. determines for itself when jit-is proper to control an executive or legislative officer, and therein lies the most important, the most useful and at the same time the most dangerous power in the government. THE SOCIAL EVIL QUESTION. Appeal to the Law-Making Power to Zee Repealed Regulations. To the Edit he Post-Dispatch. Many years ago the question of regulat- ing prostitution was agitated in St. Louts with the practical result of placing on the Statute books a most exemplary law, which had a controlling influence on this vice. | But unfortunately for our city and the gen- eral public, a change of sentiment took possession of those in authority just as it was about ete ey its beneficent effects, and it was repealed. The result. is of now seeing a most wanton display of vicious tendencies on the part of a certain class of women on our streets. During the exist- ence of that law, one of its many good effects, Was a marked decorum in our city at night. The police had this law to guide them and were protected in the execution of it, so that they compelled the unfortu- nates to conceal their identity and keep from flaunting their evil vocation in public. Any man or boy could then pass through our streets at the dead of night without be- ing accosted by some unfortunate creature and invited into a den reeking with filth and vice, the chances being ten to one that con- tact would engender a disease which would blast his future life and welfare. If the re- ligious women, actuated by the best mo- tives in having the social evil law repealed, could eee the destructive effects of the dis- eases acquired in these places on innocent girls, who become the wives of men whose blood ie tainted, they would be the first to demand its re-enactment. To enlighten them let me enumerate only a few of the evils arising from this contamination. First, it induces premature decrepitude and in Fee cases paralysis, which is a living# eath, glandular system undergoes de- generaticn., The liver and kidneys be- come changed, developing cirrhosis or Bright's disease. The patient is a martyr to indigestion and its many miserable con- sequences. The bones, ligaments and serous membranes degenerate so that life is intol- erable even among comparatively young men. These are only a few of the many miseries induced by the poison of this con- tamination on the censtitution of the mid- die-aged, as few of them grow old. How does it act on the young and vigorous? Scarcely has the poison impregnated their systems than they lose their vim and en. ergy and look pale and sallow. They be- come indolent and no longer have the desire to attend to thelr business or advance their interests in life. If a family ie dependent on thelr exer. tions, it must be supported by friends or strangers. The innocent married woman, blooming with health and ~beauty, ema- clates, gToWs despondent and takes no in- terest in her family or household, she be- comes the victim o creqeese miscarriages, which finally put an end to her sufferings in death. If scrofula exists in the conati- tution, it Is blown into active energy. The king’s evil is developed with its concom!i- tants of consumption, softening of the bones, and a host of other dis- eases well known to all medical men. But these are not the greatest woes that wait on man. The wives and children, innocent victims, develop diseases conse- quent on this polson fin their blood, while | the attending physician's lips must be sealed so as not to communicate to them or their friends the real cause of their euf- ferings. In view of such a cond!tion ag is artially described above, is it proper a eeling of prudery should restrain our city authorities from enacting some humane laws to curtail the dissem'nation of these vile diseases? It is a question which comes home to the hearth-stone of every sensible man and woman and they shoud not ig- nore [t. Bear In mind that God never in- tended that man and woman should live apart. If one were on the North Pole and the other on the South Pole, without a ship in the universe, such is the force of affinity that they would come together, and when they do, through the frailties of hu- man nature, the weaker sex suffers. This eondition Is coeval with man’s existence, It will continue until the human race be- comes extinct. No power, human or di- vine, has been able to suppress it, though wise legislation has checked and done away with many of its bad influences. Our xroaent municipal government seems to fave backbone enough to gr le with this evil. #0 dangerous alike to the health of the community and ite morality, and 1 hope they will take tt up and not be turned aside by the cry of a few maudlin fa- natics, who inculcate the doctrine that to eontrol vice is to license ft.

D,. Pension Agent at Indianapolis. WASHINGTON, Aug. %3.—The President BITE OF HIS DOG ~ BROUGHT DEATH, Little Fred Klages Made 9 Victim of Hydrophbia in Its Most Awful Form. , ne PET SNAPPED IN PLAY. FEW DAYS AFTER THE INCIDENT THE ANIMAL DIED RATHER MYSTERIOUSLY. DANGER OF THE LAD'S NURSES. Patient Had to Be Kept Constantly Under Influence of an Opiate ta Prevent Him Hurting Them and Himself. Little Fred Klages died a horrible death Monday morning at his parents’ home, 7427 South Sixth street. He had hydrophobla in its most violent form. His physicians mercifully prevented the final moments from being marked by those hideous distortions of body and the froth- ing at the mouth which commonly accom- pany death from hydrophobia. The @octors gave him an oplate, so the little fellowy passed away as if in sleep. Master Klages was 11 years old. His father is Henry Klages, an inspector for the American Refrigerator Transit Co. The lad was bitten on July 5 while at play in his front yard by hie dog. The animal was a small fox terrier which little Fred had raised from a puppy. The dog was accounted harmless and such a thing as serious results from the bite never oc- curred to the Klages family. The bite was! inflicted on one of the boy's arms near the. elbow. It did not seem a deep bite and Iit- tle attention was paid to it beyond having it dressed by a doctor. The child went alone to the office of the family physician, Dr. Bribach at 7606 Michigan avenue. Dr. Bribach was away on his vacation. His practice was being looked after by Dr. E., Cc. Kenner. Dr. Kenner dressed the wound and the child back home. What Dr. Kenner’s treatment was, and if he cauterized the arm, Dr. Birbach does not know, as Dr. Kenner ie now out of the city. He left last week for Alaska, it is said, and made no report to Dr. Birbach of the case, A few days after the dog stuck its teeth in the arm of ita little master it became. ill and died. No one knew what had caused the dog’s death. Poison was sue- pected, but as no one could be found upon whom to fasten suspicion, it was generally accepted that death resulted from some unknown dog ailment. There was nothin in the actions of the dog prior to its - neés and death to suggest that the animal had hydrophobia. Last Thursday little Fred fell sick. He compensned of intense pain in the back of his head. H's face was burning with a fever and his eyes glistened unnaturally when he went to his mother and told her how badly he felt. He said the arm which “ dog bit had queer shecting pains in it, 00. Fred was sent again to Dr. Bribach’s of- fice. This time the doctor was at home. As soon as he heard the boy's story and saw the injured arm he suspected serious re- sults, but he oposed not to alarm the family. He redressed the wound and gave the lad a prescription to take. Friday the boy returned and sald he wae feeling no better. It was then plain to Dr. Bribach that hydrophobia had asserted it- seif. He sent the boy back home immedi- sf with instruc*ions to go to bed. Friday foes Httle Fred‘s condition was serious. The child grew delirious. It waa with great difficuity he could be restrained from leaping from. hig bed and running away. th flecked his lips and his shrieks of in vere like those of a ma. niac. Medicine could be forced between his set teeth and down hie throat only when the suffering lad would sink back on his pillow exhausted from one of his fright- ful paroxysms, ATTACKED BY A ST. BERNARD. James Mathews Badly Bitten by a Big Brute. —_ sent James Mathews, a machinist, left his home, 11% North Twenty-fourth street, early Monday to go to his work. He had not gone a bleck before a Dig St. Bernard dog disputed the right of way with him. The dog fastened his teeth in the machin- ist’s leg. Mathews kicked at the dog and, fell. ; The St. Bernard then bit Mathews on the hand and in the face, tearing the flesh bad- ly. Mathews got hold of a bowlder and beat the St. Bernard off with it. He then got on, a car and went to the City Dispensary.

Tt is reported that the Board of Fdu- cation has found practieal demonstration of the correctness of the Post-Dispatch’s position with regard to free books in | the public schools. A flood of protests against the new rule restricting the issue of books to children below the Fourth : Grade, who prove their poverty, has opened the eyes of the Board and the members are said to have begun to realize that the new rule will work great hard- Ships and will probably keep many chil- dren from going to school. That was a foregone conclusion from the inauguration of the new system, It is gratifying that the Board sees the mis- take before it is too late to avold dis- astrous consequences. In this connection it is sald that the Board has discovered that the cost of supplying free books in this city is much greater than it is elsewhere. There is little doubt that great saving can be 3 made, without depriving a child of books, a by honest and economical methods. Be ) It is to be hoped that the Board wil! ‘a | mot only rescind the new rule, but will] make the rule broader than ever by making school books free to all who seek them. Books should be as free as in- struction in the publio schools. The extra prices paid for public print- ing by the city is a type of other muni- cipal extravagance. —— ee - 9 eee FOOD FOR THE WELL FED. Dr. Frank McMurry of Buffalo, N. Y., wants the Sunday School reformed, Not . only does he want a higher standard of ‘ qualification tn the teachers, but a higher @tandard of moral character and conduct in the puplis. He says that “bad boys ought to be led out by the collar or ex- pelied,” The accomplishment of this reform would certainly improve the tone of the Sunday School. The Sunday Sohool, with admirable teachers and none but good boys as pupils, would be a model. But of what earthly use would it be? What would become of the bad boys, who good teaching and influence? $1 OO. Remit by money order, draft or in registered letter, [the Sunday School convention, which meets in this city. It may be formulated thus: Can the usefulness of the Sunday School be increased by driving away all bad boys? If the question is decided in the affirmative, the preachers should lim- it the ministrations of the gospel to the righteous, and charitable organizations should provide food only for the well fed. nate ene me If Mr. Sullivan of Boston can knock out bribery he will be a great Mayor and other Mayors will be sent to sit at his feet, THE WEEK’S BUSINESS. Public attention has been 580 largely concentrated on the wheat market that the condition of general business has been almost lost sight of. It is encouraging to know that wheat is not the only thing that continues to show improvement. With few exceptions, all lines of bus!- ness and industry have advanced dur- ing the week just closed. During the week New York has sent West $500,000 more than it has received. Payments through the principal clearing houses for the week exceed last years by 42.9 per cent and those of the current week in 1892 by 15.9 percent. This seems to indicate a large increase in the vol- ume of business transacted. At the same time failures continue to be less than for 1896, the week’s failures in the United States being 223 against 280 last year, the decrease in the Jiabilities being even more striking. The cloud on the business horizon is, of course, the coal strike. With that set- tled there is no doubt that we could look forward to a better fall and winter bust- ness season than has been experienced since 1892. In the King of Benin’s forced rubbing of his head against the ground we behold further evidence of Great Britain’s yearnings for the complete earth. FORTY WONDERFUL PAGES. The Sunday Post-Dispatch printed not only all the news of value which other papers exploited, but had so many exclu- sive features that it would be impos- sible in moderate space to catalogue them. The first page presented news that no other paper had the enterprise to get, and the succeeding pages were like unto it. And not only in news was pre-emi- nence manifest, but in the artistic display of all the stories. The passions played all their parts in the pages of the unrivaled Sunday Post- Dispatch. Saints and sinners, writers and artists, men and women, contrib- uted to the interest and beauty of every section, From McDougall’s colored fancy to the rainbow gayety of Rigby the laugh department was unequaled by any comic paper or supplement issued in these United States; One did not need to be suffering from paresis to find a reason for laughter in the comic pages. The sun of the magazine did not rise in the reference room of the Mercantile Library and set in the patent office re- port stock of a second-hand book store. The stories were new, startling and fas- cinating. There was not a dull line or a bad picture in the forty pages. - —— Sympathy for Dr. Norris, who was shot for invading a neighbor’s home, will hardly go beyond his own community. Having two families to consider—his own and his neighbor’s—there can hardly be any excuse for his dereliction. There is little ground of sympathy for a family physician who so utterly disregards both the moralities and amenities of society as to not only debauch a4 neighbor's daughter, but to degrade a neighbor’s house by crawling into it at midnight for the purpose. A man of that kind can- not complain of any fate that befalls him. He invites the worst. ~~ oOo It seems that an Indian town in Alas- ka, where whites are not allowed to come, is orderly and progressive, and that neither whisky nor tobacco is used by the red men. Considering the Indi- an’s extraordinary thirst for fire water, this is very remarkable. Possibly if bad whites could be kept away from savages of all colors, all untutored tribes might acquire real civilization. ————— \ —— a ' Wales will be greatly puffed up over the great wheeling done by Welshman Mi- chael, The Car@iff Mailis keeping track of every Welshman in the United States and calling attention to his general ex- cellence.

M., Aug. 23.—The hearing on the United States Government's attempt to restrain by injunction proceedings the Rio Grande Dam and Navigation Co. from damming the Rio Grande at Elephant Butte and appropriating the flood waters of the stream for irrigation and domestic pur- poses, was begun in the Supreme Court of New Mexico to-day. The Government was defeated in the lower court. It is said that United States Attorney Childers has prac- tically abandoned the contention that this stream is navigable in New Mexico and will make his contest chiefly upon the point that, any obstruction of the water in this territory would seriously affect the navi- ability thereof near its mouth and about redo, Mexico. A decision will probably be given about the jJast of September at an adjourned session in order that the case may be promptly carried up to the United States Supreme Court. PROBATE JUDGE SEAVER SHOT.

The matter of proceeding against the bookmakers was then lost sight of and it was believed that the down-town pool-room men had about concluded to throw up the sponge and quit for all time. As a matter of fact, however, they have been doing nothing of the kind. “This.”’ said a prominent pool-room man last night, “is to be a war oO extermination all around. The Fair Association has swiped us off the face of the earth. Now we pro- ose to swipe them. HOw ave we going to.do it? Wait and see. I think about Tuesday next we will be ready to act. : “Will we proceed legally? Why, cer- tainly, and we will have the assistance of the best legal talent. : “What attorneys will we have? Well, I'll o this far: We have retained ex-Gov. ‘harles P. Johnson and Tom Rowe. We are negotiating with Leverett P. Bell and we may have him on our staff before the Clubcases reach the courts. ‘How are we going to reach the Fair As- sociation bookies? Why, with the same law with which they reached us. “The police won't act, eh? Well what's the matter with the Sheriff? Suppose he is liven warants to serve, don’t you suppose e'll serve them? : “The fight will cost us some money? Well, I should say it will. But we are not alone in the matter. We will put up the bulk of the money needed to secure our rights, But we will have some assistance from the outside. “The landlords of this town are as much interested in this matter as we are. “Just think of it. The people who own the Bank of the Republic building were gét- ting $00 a month from the pool-room men for the use of that building. You could not for any other business rent that room for $200 a month. “The room in the Van Studdiford Hote! went begging for months at $100, but the pool-room men month for it. “Immense rents were also paid for the Brooklyn and the other rooms on Fourth street that were used for pool-room pur- poses. “The alley rooms wont bring stable rent mow where only the other day they com- manded a rental of hundreds of dollars. “The landlords don’t like the idea of los- ing all this money. They are as sore as we are at the Fair Association for leading the fight on the rooms and they propose to get ven. oe Yes, I know the Presecuting Attorney of the Court of Criminal Correction would not issue a warrant to Jackson Fleming when he applied for one against the Fair Grounds folks. “Rut it will be different when we apply. for warrants. “t'nlike Mr. Fleming, we will have some influence at court. “Dick Johnson, who iss@es the warrants, happens to be a brother of the Governor, and when the Governor goes before Dick with a big stack of evidence I guess Dick will be willing to ai te. ‘‘In fact. I know he willl, and he couldn't help it, even if he wasn't the Governor's brother. “What sort of evidence will we be able to bring before the Prosecuting Attorney in applying for the warrants? Why, all sorts. Of course, I can’t tip my hand and show you just the kind we have. It will be enough io rove up every case and to prove that the air Grounds bookies are doing exactly the same sort of business we were doing before they raided us. “What bookmakers have contributed to the fund needed.to carry out our plans? Why, every man interested in a down-town ool-room, with the exception of a few of he pikers. “The best of the down-town men have contributed to the fund, notably Leo Mayer, Ed Lonergan, Hayden Dorgan, Ed Fitzger- ald, Frank Carr, Hank Wider and Billie Kerwin."’ As a matter of fact all of the above and several other of the down-town bookies held a meeting in the hall over Bart Ready's saloon on EFighth, between Pine and Olive streets, last Saturday night. At that meet ng a resolution was passed to the effect that the association secure the legal e€ervices of Gov. Johnson, ex-Cit Coun- Selor Leverett P. Bell and Thomas . Rowe. Gov. Johnson was asked this morning: “Hiave the pool-room men called on you and asked you to proceed against the book- makers doing business at the Fair Grounds? “IT heard this morning,’’ said the Goy- ernor, “of the meeting held Saturday night and of the reeolution passed, but [ have seen none of those who were at the meet- ing as yet. “If they offer to pay ycu a retainer to take part in the presenc battle between the down-down pool-rooms and the Fair Asso- ciation, will you accept it?’ The Governor 1 tube: to think for a mo- ment. Then he saic as opposed to gartbling of all sorts. “T would be very reluctant to accept a fee — the book-makers who have been do- ng business down town, “Tt would be a very dirty fight. “I would have a united press against me, to say nothing of the general public and as owerful a corporation as is the St. Louis air Aseociation., “On general principles, however, I might be justified in accepting such a retainer. “T am opposed to gambling of all sorts d have proved that in a substantial way, was the first to wipe out the faro and k.no ens and 1 not only did that, but I drafted and secured the pasaees of the Johnson law, which makes gambling in this Biate a felony. “So, if this fight is to be one wiping out bookmaking at the Fair Grounds, as well as down-town, I might enter it. “But I would not do so without giving the matter much thought and looking at it from all directions. One thing certain, however, I have t yet spoken to a bookmaker on the subject, and their chances of retaining me as their attorney are just now, to say the least. very remote.”’ Thomas J. Rowe's partner, who was in his office this morning, said: “I have heard that the down-town bookies were going to retain Gov. Johnson, butl have heard noth- ng definite on the subject as yet. 1 suppose, owever, the Governor wili come Into the case. Charley Noland, who does all the work for the Governor, is already employed in the matter."’ Mr. Rowe was seen later. He was a very | busy man, having all the present pool- room cases on his hands. “My clients,”’ sald he. “have said nothing ut retaining Gov. Johnson, Leverett P. ll or anyone else. There is an army of t and what they should do is to form a regular association and pull together. “If they did that instead of being on the Gefensive, as they are now, they would be the ressors and others would be hunting their holes. “I don't know just what attitude we wi!) take inst the kmakers doing business t the r Grounds.

That law is still on the statute books. It has not yet been declared uncon- stitutional by the Bupreme Court and un- tll it is it is as good as any other law. It has been said that we allow minors to bet at the Fair Grounds. That is a lie. But we have taken m ures to prevent any- thing of that kind. The betting ring at the Fair Grounds will be fenced off by the time the first race is run Monday and access to it will be through turnstiles only. Careful men will be placed at each stile and no minors will be admitted to the betting shed. he Fair Association ig determined that no minors shall put down bets on the track.

Over a Thousand Enthusiasts Saw the Cullinanes Win Yesterday. One thousand delighted spectators left the Christian Brothers’ campus yesterday, after witnessing a snappy game between those closely-matched rivals, the Cullinanes and Lynch Ryes, which resulted in favor of the former by a score of 6 to 8. The bat- tery work of both teams was of the gilt- edged order and up to the seventh inning it looked as though the Lynches were sure winners, but the Patch boys took on a bat- ting humor at this meee and secured five good, square runs, which turned the tide to their success. On the part of the winners Cronin and Hughes are entitled to the credit of brilliant work, while F. Dubois and Backhoff proved the most effective of the Lynches. o kicks were made at the umpire, J. Callahan. The same clubs meet again next Sunday on the campus, when another hot ball game is expected. The score shows an almost errorless game, the total being but three for both teams. TRIPS TO THE COAST = PROFESSIONAL BALL PLAYERS TELL OF THEIR ADVENTURES IN SAN FRANCISCO, SOME MADE MONEY, SOME LOST The Baltimore and All-America Teams to Go Out This Year. It is just ten years ago since George Mun- son, then the hustling Secretary of the St. Louls Browns, took that team and the Louisvilles to the coast. They got to San Francisco early one Sunday morning in De- cember and imagined it waa Alaska, it was so cold, There were no fires in their hotel and they had to shiver and shake or go to bed to keep warm. At noon of that day, however, the sun had come out and it was so warm the St. Louis boys had to bring out their linen dusters. The St. Louis and Louisville clubs played to big business that day. Each player got over $225 for his bit. And they made money hand over fist until the New Yorks, under Buck Ewing's direction, arrived in Francisco to play with the local teams. San Directors in deciding in favor of the Louls- villes in the matter of the proteases ggme in Louisville, Scrappy Joyce said: hey are al] afraid of us and will do everything in their power to keep us down. knew that it was almost useless to make any ick, but Wolf’s unfairness was so flagrant that it seemed impossible for anyone to ap- prove of his conduct. This decision con- vinces me that the New York Club can get no justice from the National League. e are playing pennant ball, however, and no clique on earth can keep us down. SPORTING GOODS HOUSES. The Gold Boom at Elondike Proving of Great Benefit to St. Louisans. The sporting goods houses of St. Louis are being greatly benefited by the gold boom at Klondike. Several large parties of 8t. Louis- ans are fitting out for the journey to Alaska, and in making their purchases are patroniz- ing the local sporting goods houses in a lib- eral manner. There were two Klondike parties in the E. C. Meacham Arms Co.’s big establishment on Fourth street this mornne. One was composed of Dr. B. B, Kenner, F. A. Fry, J. J. Brown, H. 8. Strite and Jas. Needham. Dr. Kenner was the leader of this party, and Fry, who has been to Klondike before, goes along as guide. They will make the journey to the Alaskan country via Seattle. Their purchases from the Meacham com- ny included a lot of neavy sweaters, eather coats with corduroy linings, fur- lined overcoats, money belts, Colt’s navies. Smith & Wesson revolvers and ' wie knives. Not the least interesting of their purchases was a lot of sleeping bags made to buckle about them, and which, although made for local fishing parties, will do very well in a colder climate. Another party to visit Meacham’s to-day was that headed by Attorneys Vortriede and Gfeller. They are backing Dr. Schuman, the WHAT MICHAEL IS: He is a Welshman. s He is twenty years old.

TUSCOLA, Ill, Aug. 23.—The first prize fight ever held in Douglas County took place Saturday night at Garrett, Ill., eight miles west of here. Mem Thompson of ivanapolis and Harry Butler of St. Louis, Mo. Thompson fought at 168 pounds while Butler weighed 165. Three-ounce gloves were used. The purse was $10 and was deposited in Jos.

The second of the series of games at South Side Park between the Sporting News and Belleville Clerks attracted the largest crowd ever at a semi-professional game in St. Louis. The turnstile register was 6,589. The Clerks played snappy, ag- gressive ball and won on their merits. The Sporting News boys were not up to their usual standard in fielding, but they rallied amely and in the seventh inning wrested the lead from their opponents, but were unable to retain it. itcher Schwartz of the Sporting News team lost his effective- ness in the second inning and the Clerks had piled up six runs. Crinnion succeeded him in the third inning. Knowlton, the Clerks’ pitching phenom, was not a puzzle but superb support at critical stages saved him. he third and deciding game of the series will probably be played at South Side Park on September 6. Next Sunday the Sporting News will play the strong Cairo team of the Central League at South Side Park. WESTERN ASSOCIATION GAMES. All Amateur Athletes Are Eligible to the St. Louis Meeting. The Louisville athletes are going to join the Western Association, the branch of the Amateur Athletic Union organized in St. Louis recently.

It lasted ten rounds. ‘hen a/!} Talking of the New Yorks’ business there then, Buck Ewing the other day said: ‘‘We had heard of the success of the Louisville and St. Louis teams at San Fran- cisco that year. They were under the direc- tion of Jim Hart and George Munson and we made a trip out wholly and solely to play against the local teams. Until our ar- r.val the Louisville-St. Louls combination had the cream of the business. Then we | hogged the persimmons. We got $200 apiece for our bit out of the first Sunday game. } After paying railroad fare and board for pretty nearly the whole winter each mem- i ber of the ecombination came back Bast with $1,500 clear.”’ ‘That is a great deal different from the ' way we came back home year before last,” (said Charlie Irwin. “Il went out with the | St. Pauls to play the Minneapolis team on | the San Francisco parks. We played to a pretty fair gate the first day, but some of in a day car. For two days on that trip I didn’t have anything to eat but a half joaf of bread and a mickel’s worth of onions. Comiskey sent us money to Kansas City on the way back. May be we didn’t put away three squares at that Kansas City hotel. Comiskey paid for it, and if he got rates the landlord quit big loser. I never saw such eating in my life. We were all but starved.”’ “IT believe we are going to make good money this season. I think San Francisco is just about ripe for a base ball revival,” said Lange. “‘With most of the members of the Boston team and a number of the Baltimores and Chicagos and other teams we will have strong drawing cards. We are not going to take players that are not sober and energetic, and who will not take care of themselves. We will play cities and towns on our way out and back, and we will also play four or five weeks in San Francisco and several games in the City of Mexico.”’ It will be good news to the people of the West, and particularly to the San Fran- cisco folks, to know that all arrangements for another winter trip to the coast have at last been completed, The clubs who are to go this time will be known as the Baltimore and All Amer- ica teams. The first named team will, with one or two exceptions, be the real champion Balti- mores. Nearly every one of the present champion Or.oles will make the tour. The All-America team will be Griffin A.

It Is to the Effect That the Indianap- olis Team Is to Come to St. Louis. There is a fairy tale floating around the country that the Indianapolis Club of the Western League is to be transferred to St. Louis next season. This would not be a very happy thing for St. Louis. The In- d‘anapol.s team would cut a mighty sorry showing in the League. Indeed that team 'is made up mostly of cast-off League play- the. ers. The present St. Louis team with proper captain could beat the present In- dlanapolis team do.ng anything. Heine Peitz as a Pitcher. Heine Peitz, who a little while ago caught a pretty good game for St. Louis. made his debut as a pitcher in Philadel- phia the other day. A baseball writer says of his work: ‘“Peitz has a queer delivery. He starts his arm, then halts and throws on with the motion. It is a question whether or not it is an ilHegal delivery,” EDW. P. DEACON GOES INSANE Five Years Ago He Killed Emil Abeille in His Wife’s Boudoir. BOSTON, Mass., Aug. 23.—Edward Par- ker Deacon of this city, has become in- sane and was committed to the McLean Hospital at Waverly on Saturday. Five years ago Mr. Deacon figured in a sensational tragedy at Cannes, France. He discovered Emile Abeille, a Frénchman, in Mrs. Deacon's boudoir and killed him on the spot. The affair was the most startling social scandal of the year. Publile opinion was all with Mr. Deacon. Mr. Deacon never lived with his wife after- wards, but he brooded over the tragedy and for a long time he has been noted for his eccentricities. He arrived on Thursday from Narragansett with his valet and nurse and registered at the Bellvue Hotel. That night he betrayed violent symptoms of dementia and it was necessary to restrain him. His lawyer was sent for and on his ad- vice his client was examined by Dr. Jelly, an expert alienist. A consultation of phy- sicians will be held, but in the meantime he was sent to McLean Hospital as a pre- cautionary measure. He has delusions of persecution, a marked symptom of paranoia. WILL CLOSE WITH A BALL. Oakville Farmers’ Fair Well Aitended and a Thorough Success. The Oakville Fair, which was opened Sun- day morning on the grounds of the Oakville Farmers’ Club, three miles south of Jeffer- son Barracks, on the Telegraph road, will close Monday evening with a ball. More than 2,000 people attended the open- ing. Congressman Richard Bartholdt made an address, which was responded to by Dr. Samue)] J. Will, president of the Farmers’ Club. The county official corps of Clayton, the Sout’, Broadway Merchants’ Associa- tion and the commission merchants of St. Louls were well represented in the attend- dance. The exhibition was one of the most suc- cessful ever held by the club, which is one of the largest and most influential agricul- tural organization in the State. Supreme Court Foresters of America. DENVER, Colo., Aug. 2%3.—The National Supreme Court of Foresters of America will cocvene in this city to-morrow and daily sessions will be held until Friday. The delegations from the extreme Eastern and Western portions of the country—New England and California—are the first on the ground. The Californians have a button which they will ask the Supreme Court to adopt as the emblem of the order.

Muse Starts a Fire While Prepar- ing to Move, —_———— While packing his furniture preparatory to shipping it to Chicago, Mr. F. C. Muse of Webster Groves overturned a lamp, set fire to his goods and was burned out of house and home. Mr. Muse was an adjuster for the Simon- Gregory Dry Goods Co. until the firm re- tired from business. He has been doing nothing since, but intended remaining at Webster Groves for the winter and setting up in businegs in the spring. Six weeks ago he refurnished his home, Only a few days later he received a flatter- ing offer from the John B. Farwell Dry Goods Co. of Chicago. He accepted and pre- Pared to move to that city. Saturday night he packed until near mid- night. He was alone in the house as his family ure away for the summer. The floor of ithe room where he was working Was strewn with excelsior and straw. In roving a mattress he struck a table. The amp on it fell on the inflammable material on the floor. Fire flashed up almost in- Siantly and the room wags quickly in flames. The nearest house was 100 yards away. Back of. the Muse house is a negro settle- ment, but the people were all away at a barbecue. Mr. Muse saw it was useless to fight the fire and busied himself saving what he could of his household goods.. Neighbors were not aroused until it was too late either to stop the flames or res- cue the household goods. The house was owned by David Anderson, who places his loss at $3,500. Mr. Muse says he lost household goods valued at $1,- 600. This was partially insured. Wheelman Sanger’s Father Dead. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Aug. 23.—Cas M. Sanger, father of Walter C.
