WASHINGTON, April 9.—BPlans have been fully matured. for the naval and military demonstrations to be made the moment this Government. is ready to as- gume conditions of war. While the naval’ strategic board has observed the greatest secrecy in connection _ with its deliberations, yet the surface showings, and the movement of the fleets, coup- Jed with the well known purpose of the Government tells very plainly of the cam- paign that has been mapped out. The matter of gaining control of Cuba at the very outset has been the subject thiefly discussed, and this has occupied the most attention. The assembling of Capt. Sampson's flect at Key West within easy striking distance of the principal fortifica- tions of Cuba, is ample evidence that the naval forces will first move on Havana, and if resistance is offered will shell the towns, bombard the forts, and force an en- trance. Should the armed forces on land about Havana continue to resist after the forts have been rendered non-effective then it would be necessary to subjugate them. ‘The work of the navy, however, will be to quiet the guns of the forts and make it possible to land troops on Cuban soil. They will also stand between the island and any aid Spain might seek to send. . The principal force of Capt. Sampson’s powerful fleet will be needed to invest Havana. That harbor is thoroughly mined and the fortifications are stronger there than at any other point on the island. Since the Vizcaya and the Oquendo have left there, less trouble is feared in taking Havana. One serious problem for the Government to solve is the disposition of 150,000 Spanish troops, should they quietly lay down arms and surrender. An immense fleet would be needed to take them from the island and convey them wherever it should be determined they should be taken. While the main squadron, and which might be termed the “Fighting Squadron,” ‘is paying its respects to Cuba, it will devolve upon the “Flying Squadron” to prevent ‘any Spanish warships from approaching the island. It will also devolve upon the fleet under Capt. SchJey to drive away the two Span- ish warships at Porto Rico, and prevent their being reinforced by other Spanish war- ef 8. ane largest portion of Spain’s fleet # at Cadiz and Cape Verde Islands, so far away that they need. not be considered for the present. The “Flying Squadron” will closely watch the movements of the warships across the Atlantic and intercept any that may attempt to reach this side. ; 2 Whether the Spanish possessions on the other side of the Atlantic are to be at- remains for future consideration. This is no doubt true with reference to “Spain herself. While present plans do not contemplate carrying the war across the ‘Atlantic it is suggested that Spain may assume such an aggressive policy as to compel her complete subjugation, but the prevailing sentiment is quite largely to the effect that a fight in Cuban waters will terminate the war. Others, however, do not take ‘that view of the situation and fear it will be continued indefinitely. a _ SPAIN’S ARMADA HAS NOT MOVED FROM CAPE VERDE.

The General Belief Is That the President Will Not Materially Modify His Message. Officials at Washington Say the News From Madrid Does Not Change Conditions, From a Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, April 9.—Midnight.—Spain’s last device for delay is a proclamation de- claring a cessation of hostilities in Cuba for five days, with a threat that the Powers of Europe will aid her if the United States decline to accept the conditions imposed, and interferes in Cuban af- fairs. These terms, according, to advices from London and Madrid, are: 1. The United States shall cease giving moral and material aid to the insurgents. 2. The United States shall withdraw its fleet from Key West and from'the waters of the Philippine Islands. , With the conditions suggested by Spain it is felt here that a new and even graver crisis may arise. Coming late at night there is no opportunity to judge how the Spanish conditions will be I p) id WILL THIS BE HER EASTER GREETING? received by Congress, but in view of the sentiment of the Senate and House, it is felt that the condi- tions proposed by Spain will accentuate the feeling already existing. An armistice will be futile, because it takes two to make peace as well as two to make a fight, and the Cubans would refuse an armistice from Spain. But Spain can declare a cessation of hostilities without communicating with or recognizing Gen. Gomez, in a letter dated March 7, received yesterday, declares that Spain has the insurgents. already ceased hostilities. While she continues to starve women, children and non-combatants to « death, she has ceased to fight her armed foes. : Gen. Woodford is still in Madrid, although all the other members of the embassy have left for France. He cabled at midnight last night that as a result of the pressure upon Spain by the ambassadors and by the Pope, a meeting of the ministry was held late last night at which a decision was reached to proclaim a cessation of hostilities to-day. Leaders in Congress and members of the Cabinet declared to the Post-Dispatch correspondent that Spain’s offer could not make the slightest difference in the programme of the President or of Congress. The President’s “war message” t+» Congress is based on the fact that Cuba is in a state of anarchy; that Spain has lost control of it; that the insurgents are not in secure control of any part of it; but that Spain in particular has proved herself unable even to protect the warship of another nation when paying a “friendly visit” to Spain’s personal harbor of Havana, “Under these circumstances,” said one of the highest officers of the Government to the corre- spondent, “we cannot regard Spain’s offer to cease hostilities against the insurgents as changing the situation. “Tf Spain will agree to negotiate upon the basis of the ultimate independence of Cuba, the United States would be compelled to accept the offer.” A long cable dispatch from Minister Woodford arrived about midnight in cipher. Experts were summoned to the White House to translate it. The news was carried to several members of the Cabinet by reporters. One of the four highest officers of the Government, whose views the Post- Dispatch has found to be invariably in accord with the President’s vote said to the Post-Dispatch correspondent that he did not believe Spain’s offer could now make any change in the programme of the President or of Congress. The President definitely informed Spain 10 days ago that all negotiations for peace, to re- ceive the co-operation of the United States. must be based on the ultimate independence of Cuba. If Spain is still unwilling to yield that point the United States must intervene by force if necessary.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. LAWRENCE, Kan., April 9.—Prof. L. I. Blake of Kansas University has success- fully conducted his wireless telegraphy ex- periments with receiver similar to that of a telephone. The receiver is a sensitive apparatus operated by the atrik of the sound waves against it, which In turn operates the telegraph instrument as per- fectly as can be done by wire The sound waves will pass through brick or stone walls, wood, iron and other sub- stance and still operates the receiver.: Prof. Blake says he does not believe the new discovery will ever take the place of the aie method of telegraphy, but it can e made of great value by signaling from the shore to ships 10 or 15 miles from the coast when the view is obscured by fog or violent atmospheric disturbances, and will be of thestimable service in coast defense work, in which it is now proposed to use it. With a wire running up the t of the vessel and a receiving machine the hold of a ship sound waves sent from the shore on striking the wire would make the con- nection as perfect as could be desired. While conducting some sea signaling ex- | posrenss off Sandy Hook two years ago he Government lent tts aid, and Com- mander Schley, now.in charge of the fiyin squadron, was the officer associated with Prof. Blake. Schley watched the success of the experiment with much interest and reported to the Government what had been done, and it was the knowledge thus gained that has caused the Government to open gaan a ns with Prof. Biake at this time. TORPEDO BOAT DESTROYERS OFF FOR KEY WEST. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 9.—The dispatch boat and torpedo boat destroyer Dolphin left the navy yard this evening for Key West, where she will join Admiral Sampson's fleet. She carried a large stock of provi- sions and ammunition which will be dis- tributed among the vessels of the North Atlantic Squadron now cruising off the Dry Tortugas. Later the torpedo boat destroyer Tecum- seh tried to start for Key West, but she had scarcely reached the lower bay when her engines refused to work. She had to be towed back to the yard. Capt. Som- ‘mers said the Tecumseh would start again to-morrow afternoon. BUYING SUPPLIES FOR THE BIG CAMP. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., April 9.—Col. J. C.

Fioroa ™ ~ WASHINGTON, April 9.—There {s an interestinz story afloat that the President has decided to designate Lieut.-Gen. John M. Schofield, retired, as an adviser to the Executive, the Becretary of War and the commanding general of the army in the event of hostilities. Gen. Schofield has been very ac- tively engaged of late in organizing a national volunteer re- serve to be ready for duty at the call of the President. In connection with this matter he has had consultations with “““®-the President and the Secretary of War, the latter of whoin has given his hearty indorsement to the scheme. By reason of his active experience in the late war the General would be-well qualified to suggest what steps might be necessary and profitable in the conduct of the campaign of the iand forces. There is an act of Congress which prohibits the designation by the President of any retired officer to, active duty, but Gen. Schofield could serve voluntari!v if he desired. _ Gen. Schofield was retired in 1895. In 1888 he was the senior Major general of the army, and he is the only living soldier who occupied a very high post of command in actual warfare. Hecame out of West Point in the same class with James B. McPherson, John B.

As will be seen by looking at the map, there are direct railway lines of communication with every exposed position on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. As a ground of practical maneuver- ing and tactical instruction or a fleld of actual fighting, the best profes- sional soldiers in the army regard its advantages as unsurpassed. No other mation possesses such a ground. Over 100,000 men fought for two days with- in the present limits of the park. All the fighting lines and all the lines of tactical movements have been ascertained and marked, and are concisely explained on historical tablets. The roads over which opposing ar- mies moved to battle and operated during the engagement belong to the Government, and the more important of these have been improved. The road mileage of the park system ts 100 miles. ——— © -o— 00-00 66 —_0—_-0— -0-—_ 0 —_6_9—_ 9 9 _9 _ 9 — with headquarters at Washington. Gen. Scho‘leld is now 67 years old. His boyhood was spent in Illinois, and it was from the State of Lincoln, of Grant and of Logan that he was ap- pointed to the military academy of West Point. In 1891 Gen. Schofield was married to Miss Georgia Kilbourne, the daugiter of George Kilbourne of Keokuk, Io. Army men say that the President could have no better man at his elow than the distinguished old warrior of the ’60s. It the recommendations of Gen. Miles, commanding the army, are approved by the Secretary of War, two companies of the 25th Regiment of Infantry will proceed at once to take station at Key West for any service they may be called upon to perform. The 25th Infantry is a colored regiment, and has been stationed at posts in Montana for several years past. {f Gen. Miles’ plan is carried into execution two of the com- panies will proceed direct to Key West, leaving the other companies to follow from the Chickamauga Park, to which the regiment has been ordered, when the necessity arrives. The base of operations of the land forces will be the historic fleld of Chickamauga—now known as Chickamauga Park. Here the mobilization of the army will take place for de- fense of the coast and invasion of Cuba. , It seems to be the plan to call for 100,000 volunteers as soon as the first direct hostile step is taken. These will be almost wholly militlamen. If conditions justify an {increase of this force, another call for 300,000 will be made. Chickamauga will be point of mobilization. d Capt.

He Is the Only Man in Spain Sufficiently Devoted to the Boy King to Be Premier. wr Irony is the secret of the power which Senor Sagasta, the present Premier of Spain, wields over his country. In a country where even the peasants are impressively elo- quent, and where the language itself Is poetic, he is strangely deficient in the:graces of speech, and his voice is neither sonorous, well-toned nor impressive. In fact, his ut- terances are rather halting, yet when he is addressing the Cortes or a political meeting every voice is hushed and every head bent forward so as not to lose a single word of the uninterrupted volley of gentle sarcasm which seems to pervade every phrase he utters. He is a wrinkled, kindly-looking old man of about 70 years, who, unlike his great rival, the late Senor Canovas, cares nothing for society: He is almost as ignorant of its usages as was his good wife, who, on the first occasion that she attended a court entertainment as wife of a Premier, put to the test even the traditional gravity of the Hidalgos by making a most profound curtsey to every one of the Halebardiers who, pike, in hand, lined the apartments and the staircases of the Royal] Palace. She was firmly convinced that they were grandees, and expressed to each the cus- tomary complimentary wish that he “might live a thousand years.” Sagasta is of all the Spanish statesmen the one who stands most high in the favor of the Queen and of the little King. His relations with the Regent are aj- ™ .St paternal in character, and on at least two occasions when he has considered it politic for her interests and for those of the little King, he has deliberately resigned the Premiership and recommended her to trust the direction of affairs to Canovas in- stead. He is utterly without affectation in his relations with her, completely disin- terested, and has thoroughly convinced her that he prefers the tnterests of his lit- tle King even to those of his county. Nothing could be more charming than the relations which subsist between young Don Alfonso and the old statesman, upon whose Knees he until @ year ago was fond of clambering in order to play with his eyeglasses. ; Sagasta differs from most of his countrymen in being entirely devold of al] disposition to seek revenge for past injuries. Thus, {n the early part of the sixties Senor Igon, the chief law officer of the Crown, who filled a position similar to that enjoyed by the Attorney General of the United States in this country, demanded not merely Sagasta’s arrest, but likewise his execution as a revolutionist by means of the disgraceful death of the garrote. Yet on the first occasion that Sagusta Was called upon to form an administration, after the overthrow of the monarchy, he made a point of inviting this self-same law- yer to accept the portfolio of Minister of Justice, and always treated him with particu- lar kindness and consideration, It is thanks to such conduct as this that Sagasta has fewer real enemies than any other public man in Spa'n But few people are aware that Sagasta is not merely a Free Mason, but likewise a Grand Maseter of the order in Spain—a fact which has contributed in no small manner to ‘facilitate the relations between Gen. Woodford and himself. Yet, in spite of the nortorious hostility of the Catholic Church for the fraternity, Sagasta has always been on the best of terms with the clergy in Spain, and has, in fact, enjoyed a far greater degree of consideration at their hands than his Conser- vative rival, Canovas. Sagasta is an engineer by training, a Journalist by profession, a politician by cir- cumstances, and a Premier, just at present, by misfortune. For there is no doubt that no other statesman could have been disinterested and patriotic enough to accept office at a moment when Spain is so certain to be overtaken by disaster as just at present, He has been a Minister of Spain under the dictator, Gen. Prim; under the reign of King Amadeus; under Marshal Serrano, when the latter was Presidént of the Re- public; under the late King, and repeatedly since the present little boy gucceeded to his father’s crown. He lives on the little Plaza Celenque, not far from the Puerta del Sol, and occupies the first floor of a very ordinary apartment house, and were it not for the presence of a few police officers around the entrance, no one would dream that it was the abode of the Premier of the proudest nation on the face of the globa It presents a striking contrast to the palace of the late Senor Canovass Unlike Canovas, who made a point of surrounding himself when tn office with men devold of intellectual or political Standing, so as to have them completely under his thumb, Sagasta has always endeavored to select his Ministerial colleagues from among the cleverest and most accomplished of public men. He apparently has ne fear of their rebelling against his authority—an authority which he owes entirely to his imperturbability of temper, and to the fact that he always preserves his equa- nimity even under the most trying of circumstances, his calmness, mingled as it is with frony, creating a deep impression upon a people so passionate and so hot-blood- ed as are the Spaniards. Spain owes to him many reforms and civic prerogatives, and no one has contribut- ed more to endow his countrymen with constitutiognal rights and freedoen than Praxe- des Mateo Sagasta, who is fond of deciaring that he finds as much pleasure and in- )} terest in Spanish politics as in a game of chess.

Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 18%. ROME, April 9.—Admiral Enrico Accinni, the Senior Italian Admiral in active service, commander of the first naval department and the next Minister of the Ma- rine, made the following statement for the Post-Dispatch correspondent on the sub- ject of the impending naval war between America and Spain: “America and Spain, not either having anticipated an immense naval war, are both unprepared, but both, especially the United States, have so strengthened their naval forces since the prospect of war arose that it would be futile to attempt a de- tailed comparison of their fleets. “If on the one hand Spain on paper has a more complete naval organization, on the other it must be recognized that the United States have immensely greater econ- omic industrial resources. “Both have noble traditions of struggle for nationality. Spain counts on her naval annals as examples of true heroism, but America while quite young in the ranks of nations is able to write down to its credit pages amongst the most glorimus history when she made headway against the mighty aations, with the aid of men like Admiral Farragut, who would be an hgnor to any country. “Again, even examining and judging from the material strength of ships of which the two fleets are composed it 1s impossible to establish even the relative su- periority of one over the other. “The war would not be one of large battleships but of cruisers. Thé simple fact that the United States may have a smaller number of these can prove nothing as she is in a position to purchase more. There is no reason to assume, in fact, there is reason to reject the possibility of Spain blockading the harbors of the United States coast line. It is too extensive for even an attempt to be made at a blockade by a fleet such as that of Spain and from a strategical point of view it would not be advisable. “Besides Spain must have some recollection of her wars in South America, where in spite of many acts of valor the work of blockading proved of very little efficacy. ENRICO ACCINNLI FURTHER PROOF OF SPAIN’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE MAINE. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. LONDON, April 9.—The signed statement of J. P. Gibbons to the editor of the Post-Dispatch, cabled from the London Bureau of the Post-Dispatch telling how the Maine was blown up has been fully confirmed. The Daily Mail publishes to-day, 24 hours after the Post-Dispatch without names, a story of the explosion similar in many respects to that furnished~by Mr. Gibbons to the Post-Dispatch, but inaccurate in some important particulars. The Mail says the English engineer who supplied the mines (Gibbons) superintended the laying of them in Havana Harbor, but Gib- bons informs me that this is not correct as he was never in Havana. The chief point in the main account as of the Post-Dispatch is that it establishes the fact that the mine could only have been exploded by design and by the deliberate act of the Span- ish engineer officers in charge of the mine field observation station. This revelation has evidently much impressed public opinion here, and it has once more brought the Maine outrage into the foremost position as the final justifying cause of the present crisis. BRITISH WARSHIPS WILL CRUISE ABOUT JAMAICA. ' Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. by wlichiy ‘om AaAnYV. TR9R, Press }*y Copyright the | KINGSTON, Island of Jamaica, April 9.—The local war office haa ‘ust received cable advices that three British warships have sailed for this island, being ordered to cruise along the Jamaican shores. The island war office has also received cabled instructions to prepare {mmedliatély accommodations for two line regiments which will arrive next week from Halifax. The General in command here informs the Post-Dispatch correspondent that he had no previous advices of the coming of either ships or soldiers, but he infers that they are sent because, Jamaica being the nearest British point to the foces of the coming war, England desires to have a strong force here in the event of complications. The news has caused a great stir, owing to rumorsin military circles that England contemplates giving aid to America by sending the Jamaica garrison to Cuba if the United States decides on a military occupation of that island or of Porto Rico.

MOTHERS PRAISE IT, AND THE AILMENTS OF BABYHOOD VANISH BEFORE IT. LETTERS FROM MRS. THOMAS OF MISSOURI, MRS. BREWER OF RHODE ISLAND, AND OTHERS. MRS. BE. E, THOMAS, ALPHA, MO. Mrs. Thomas of Missouri is one of the many happy mdthers who have used Pe- ru-na. Hundreds of these women are to be found in every part of the United States—mothers who have been ailing for some reason or other. They have failed to find relief. Many times they have given up all hope. Hesriua of Pe-ru-na they have tried it, not only to become cured, but to become: life-long friends of Pe-ru-na. I have used your Pe-ru-na and Man-a- lin. I have been doctoring for several years, but kept getting worse. One day a neighbor woman brought me_ your book, “The Ills of Life,” and wanted me to take your medicine. I told her that I had given up all hope of ever getting well—I had tried so much medicine. My neighbors thought I was nearly dead with consumption. Finally I concluded that I would make a last trial. So my husband got me a bottle of Pe-ru-na and Man-a- lin. I commenced taking them accord- ing to directions. That was two years ago. A year ago last November I gave birth to a 10-pound baby boy, who is well and hearty; and I am doing my own housework. I can never give Pe-ru-na too great praise. I think it the best medi- cine I ever heard of. MRS. E. E. THOMAS. » Mrs. Lizzie M. Brewer, Westerly, R. I. Mrs. Brewer of Westerly, R: L., is well known in that beautiful city. It would be very difficult to find a more enthu- siastic advocate of Pe-ru-na than Mrs. Brewer. Her culture and popularity made Pe-ru-na a favorite remedy in the State of Rhode Island long before it was ad- vertised in that section. Mrs. Lizzie M. Brewer writes in a re- cent letter to Dr. Hartman: “I was very much pleased to read in our daily paper for the first time that your remedy (Pe-ru-na) is being advertised in our city. I have been doing for years all that Il could to make the people of our city understand the virtues of your remedies, and you can judge how glad I am to see your remedies advertised in our papers. have used Pe-ru-na in my family for over four years. I find it a sure cure for all catarrhal affections so common in this part of the country. It cures a cold at once. There is no cough medicine that can at all equal Pe-ru-na.

NO EMBLEMS BUT OLD GLORY. Line of March of the Municipal Au- thorities and Citizens From the Old to the New City Hall. For fear that the public would misap- prehend the full significance of Monday's street parade and that none but city em- ployes were expected to participate in it, the Mayor yesterday afternoon made this formal announcement: To the Good Citizens of St. Louis: Monday, April 11; 1898, marks an auspicious event in the history of our city. For over 20 years municipal! business has been conducted in par a entirely inadequate, and unsuitable to dignity and rapid growth of St. Louis, With proper pride our le have beeh awaiting the completion of the new City Hall. While that work has 6o0 will, on the day named, be a eres of the room assigned them in the new ullding. Such an event is of sufficient importance to justify me in asking my fellow citizens to par- ticipate with the city officials in a proper cele- bration ef the removal from the old to the new municipal home. A parade will organize on Monday, the 11th inst., at 10 o’clock a. m., at the old City Hall, in which all citizens, without regard to party affiliations, are invited to take part, to proceed to the new Oity Hall and take forma) posses- sion. There will be no pners or insignia ermitted in the procession—only ‘Old Glory.’’ se who march will march rely as citizens. HENRY NHEIN, Mayor. The parade will organize on the north- east corner of Eleventh and Chestnut streets, on Eleventh street, and proceed as fol.ows: North on Dleventh to Pine street, Past on Pine to Ninth street, North on Ninth to Olive street.

LOUIS BUILT SHIP. It Is Designed for a Trip to the Klon- dike From Seattle. Down at Stone’s ship yard at Broadway and Kansas street is being built a little boat which in about ten days will take its first journey, but the journey will not be by water. It will ‘be by rail. The littl boat will be loaded on two or three flat cars and hauled over the Great Northern road to Seattle. There she will be launched, and the next trip she takes will be to the Yukon River, with Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Wiggin of Washington, D. C., and a party of ten miners on board. Mr. and Mrs. Wiggin are at present in St. Louis, and are putting up at the Plant- ers’ Hotel. They will remain until the boat is pronounced ready for her journey by the workmen at the ship yard, The boat is built upon the lines of a tug, is 80 feet in length and is 16 feet at her widest part. She is designed expressly to make unnecessary the dangerous and se- vere trip across the ‘“‘pass,’’ and is provided with a number of small boats for use in the numerous creeks which flow tributary to the Yukon, Steam will be the motive power and the miners will also act as the oat’s crew. One feature of the trip — Mr. Wig- gin lays great stress upon#@is the quality and quantity of supplies which will be car- ried: There will be var.ety as well as abundance, and this Mr. Wiggin looks upon as a powerful element in keeping his pros- pectors not only in the best of health but in the best of spirits. Supplies will be car- ried for three years, the time estimated to accomplish plans which have long ago been quiefly laid. Mrs. Wiggin expects to stand the fatiguing trip, and more than that to re- main in the desolate wilds of Alaska until all hands are prepared to return to civiliga- tion, with gold dust in their eyes and pockets bulging with nuggets. Mr. Wiggin is superintending the trip, and will: look after the work when the gold fields are reached for an Eastern syndicate, which has ample capital behind it. Of course, he will not divulge the objective point of the ype gen but wd — = synd.cate has s eye upon a rich vein, which to yield millions, ee “Our venture is really @ ‘grub-stakin ly undertaken,” said Mr. Wiggin to a Post- Inste out a party of miners PE setting them forth to do the best roviding them ing every de- as comfortable plies an tail of the perilous errand A RECORD FOR BURGLARY.

From the crest of one of the Middletown hills back of Alton a email funeral pro- cession will wend its way this Haster day down and up to the cemetery on the crest of another hill. It will be the escort for Mrs. Virginia Ut- ley from a home where her burdens were too great for her frail mental and physical strength to a home where ehe will find peace. For 17 years Mrs, Utley, a slave to her con- viction of duty, cared for a husband who was a hopeless invalid. Two years ago he died. But his death did not release her from her bondage to the sick room. In Alton Mrs. Rachael Gaeure, the woman | who had adopted her and loved her and reared her as if she had been her own child. was bending under the weight of 80 years and the affliction of an incurable dis- There was nobody but strangers to ease. care for her. : Mrs. Utley buried her husband at Ke- waunee and hagtened to Alton. With a heart of lead she took up the task of car- ing for the helpless old woman. She was fit to be cared for herself, but she struggled against the revulsion which came over her | and did not comptain. Her body and mind were not as strong as her sense of duty. She became a victim to what the simple folk on the hilltop called “spells.” She fell to talking about her dead husband and the rest which was his, and once or twice she said she did not see how she could wait until the Master called her away from earth, The other day she got a letter from one of her sons. He was in some sort of trouble. That was the last straw. Friday afternoon Mrs. Sarah Hall came up from Fourth street to see the invalid. Mrs. Utley complain of feeling badly. Mrs. Hall offered to bring in some coal and water. “T have all the Spee and water I shall ever need,”’ said Mrs Utley. Half an hour after Mrs. Hall had gone away, Mrs. John Winkler eat down at her window next door to play with her twin babies.

A 8ST. VINCENT AVENUE RECEPTION. GUESTS VOLUNTEER TO FIGHT. Their Wives Drink to Their Success and Urge Them to Defend the Honor of Their Country. ~~ There was an impressive and atirring scene in a pretty home at 3017 St. Vincent avenué last night. It was a striking manl- festation of the spirit of patriotism which is just now actuating all Americans—save only Mark Hanna. The residence is that of Thomas Fitz- patrick, a well-known roofing contractor. Mr. and Mrs. Fitzpatrick were entertaining their friends at a “war reception.”’ On the surface it was a brilliant function, but un- dor all the gayety was a current of deep sig- nificance. The parlor and dining room were ablaze with incandescent lights. Festooned from the chandeliers, the doorways and the cor- ners of the rooms were the national colors. Flags were used profusely in the decora- ti ion. Mr. and Mrs. Fitzpatrick received their guests in the reception hall, The hostess pitined small American flags on the coats and dresses of the party. Those present, besides the host and host- ess, were Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Abel, Mr. and Mrs, A. J. Thompson, Mr. and Mrs. C. B, Martin, Mr.- and Mrs. William Nolte, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Hughlett, Mr. and Mrs. J. lL. Klaus, Mr. and Mrs, Lawrence Kava- naugh, Mr. and Mrs. James Connell, John Meagher, Thomas Sheehan and William Ross. A course dinner was served. When the tempting viands were disposed of, Mr. Fitz- vatrick pledged the dead heroes of the Maine. te and women arose, stlently —ifted their empty glasses, turned them side down and placed them reversed upon the table. Mr. Fitzpatrick made an address, in which he said the time was at hand for every American to show the sterling quality of h-s patriotism. The country, he sald, wouid soon need volunteers to fight for the stars and stripes. He asked those present willing to join him in responding to the first call of troo to drink to the flag. The men arose as bY one {impulse and emptied their —S Then they strengthened the pledge by grasping each others’ hands. Throughout the impressive scene the ladies had remained seated. Atfier the pledge Mrs. Fitzpatrick arose, and, filling her glass, said: “IT want the wives of brave men to drink with me to their success. If they die may they die fighting. If they Jive may they return as conquerors.” he ladies drank the toast standing. The men who were at the reception }re all in business, prosperous and with every tie to bind them to their homes and fami- lies. Their action is a fitting rebuke to the peace-at-any-price croakers. They are all men of fine physique and would form the nucleus of a sp com- WILL BE AMICABLY SETTLED. North End Building and Loan Stock- holders to Get Together. A determined effort is being made to set- tle all differences existing among the stock- holders and directors of the North End Building and Loan Association. When the receivership application was called in Judge Talty’s court yesterday all parties asked that the mAtter be laid over until Monday morning, as a satisfactory ad- jJustment seemed probable. None of the attorneys would discuss the plans under consideration. he case came into court Friday morning, when Altred A. Drew filed an application for a receiver for the association, repre- senting that the board of directors had re- signed. State Supervisor of Building and Loan Associations Henry Il. Gray and the association were represented by attorneys. These gentlemen represented that the pro- ceeding was irregular.

' The building, eight stories high, of Mil- waukee brick, with. a frontage of 110 feet and a depth of 220 feet, running from Wash- ington to Lucas avenue, belonged to Ed- ward Mallinckrodt, and was one of the ost substantial and imposing business ouses on the avenue. Three prosperous firms have quarters in the building. . They @re Friedman Bros. & Schafer, wholesale shoes, from 901 to ; Glaser Bros., , @nd the Loth Jeans Clothing Co., #7 North inth street, just to the rear of Friedman ros, & Schafer. Glaser Bros, closed their doors at 2 p. m. and no one Wag in the house at the time the fire started. It was first discov- éred by Erhest Milsinger, a clerk in Fried- man Bros. & Schafer’s, who ran to Tenth a Washington avenue and turned in the alarm, The origin of the fire has not yet been explained. uls Glaser, senior member of the firm, said there was never any fire in their basement, and the engine room, which furnishes heat and power for the building, Is under the Nintb street pave ment, on Friedman's side of the bullding.

William Smatl, Were both at their posts when the alarm _of fire was given, and hur- ried through the basement to locate it. It was not in the basement of the shoe house, and a partition of sheet metal separates the basement of the two firms. he fire Started in the Lucas avenue end of the building, and it was there that the firemen first commenced work, though it was with difficulty, as Lucas avenue is all torn up by conduit contractors. Glaser Bros. had their reserve stock stored in the basement, and it being of light material, needed but a spark to touch it into a blage. Like a flash the flames shot through the basement sauthward, as the north doors were opened and a strong cur- rent of air rushed tn. The firemen had to break open the Washington avenue doors, and with pick and ax smash the heav sidewalk gratings in order to get down with their hose. Through the elevator shaft the smoke whirled, until the whole building Was filled to suffocation. __.Friedman Bros. & Schafer had not yet i Gooed their store, and fearing lest the _— _—_ ee Pees arpa would hn envelop r house, the clerks were re) ; in the basement, which will be a tot toa : wenn oo remove the val from fire and water. It was necessary to flood the first floor of the store and the goods there will be greatly damaged, be- sides the delicate character of the whole stock on other floors made them easily darhaged by smoke, and Mr. Giaser;thought a aedernte estimate of his losses would be $50,000. Friedman Bros. & Schafer carry a stock of $50,000, and had $30,000 or $40,000 worth of shoes in the cellar, all of which Were mounted a dry goods box, and sternly or- dered the curious spectators to fall back. They instantly obeyed. A few minutes afterward Capt. Joyce was seen to carry a helpless fireman to an am- bulance. He was cheered to the echo. Some one yelled: “He deserves a medal!”’ The cry was taken up and continued until the warrior captain doffed his cap in recog- nition. Although drenched to the skin, the warhorse of the “Bloody Fourth” worked unremittingly, aiding the unfortunate fire ae and holding the excited throng in chec TOSSES AND INSURANCOHE. Heavy Damages to Goods and Building by Fire and Water. Glaser Bros. have been in business for fifteen years. Louis Glaser said they car- ried a stock ranging from $200,000 to $250,- 000, and the insurance is near $200,000, here were about $30,000 worth of — os: and it was 7 o'clock befo n to withdraw oe gi During that time seven men had been Gragged from the smoke-filled cellars, ap- ently lifeless from suffocation. The first be taken out was Melrose, who was Pulled out by his colleagues on the Ninth eet side. A-patrol wagon took him to the City Dispensary. Then a call was made for ambulances and two came quickly. The st one reachgd the scene in time to receive Alonzo Salmon, foreman of Engine Company No. 82, wha Was taken out of Glaser - Bros,’ ©ellar, more dead than alive, and before the ambulance could get away John Israe) was Grasged out Iimp and laid in the car- riage beside him. Drs. Jordan and Reber attended the men at the Dispen ; A few minutes later Sinan, Schnell and Malloy were takeh out on the Lucas ave- ue side and were attended by Dr. Gre ry . Miller, examini surgeon of the rire epartment, until they could be taken to “ prapeneary ‘ eirose, Saimon, Doran and Israel the worst sufferers, and for a thine it wus feared they could not be revived, but by 8 o'clock Dr, Jordan had all of the smoke victime sufficiently resuscitated to be sent to their homes. : JOHN GAINES’ NARROW ESCAPE. Almost Suffocated by Smoke and Hemmed In by Flames. John Gaines, manager of. the sample goods department at Friedman Bros, Shaffer, had a thrilling experience. He was on the top floor of the building when the fire broke out. He was almost suffocated coo omake and narrowly escaped “with e. “The first intimation I recetved.”’ sal r Gaines. relating his eaperiehba’ “One ths fire bells clanging on the street.

The fire caused the biggest street car tie- up since the Ely-Walker building was de- stroyed, more than a year ago. The busy hum of Saturday afternoon in the spring season is earlier than during the winter months, and this was Easter eve. When the fire started thousands were starting from downtown for their West End homes. Many of them were business men, who closed their offices early, but the greater number were fair shoppers, homeward bound, laden with bundles containing Eas- ter bonnets and spring finery. Only three blocKs east of the scene of the .fire is the busiest corner in the world, Un- 'der ordinary conditions three street cars a | | minute cross Washington avenue. Even ‘before lines of hose blocked their way the c ara of the Lindell weré stopped by the surging crowd that struggled to get near the fire. In ten minutes all the cars on the line east of Twelfth street were tiled up. As the cars moved up close together they OF THE | 7) Shanhattal SPECIAL $0.00 - Shoes?

The cars of the Scullin and Hamilton ‘lines on Sixth street ran only at intervals. ‘Those of the Cass avenue, Southern Elec- ‘tric and Southwestern roads, on Seventh and Bighth streets, were delayed an hour, at the end of which time bridges’ were thrown across the track to support the hose, and traffic was resumed, East of Ninth street and west of Elev- enth street were lines of cars of the Lin- dell system. A switch between Eleventh and Twelfth street was used to get the cars in motion west of that point, but at 7 o'clock there was still an unbroken line of south track. It was 8 o'clock before the cars of the system were passing the scene of the fire. SCENE IN A CHURCH. Anti-Ritualist Advocate Tears Crucifix From an Altar. IONDON, April 9—The anti-ritualistic crusade of Mr. John Kesit, the layman who on January 15, 1897, caused @ sensa-~ tion by reading a protest against the elec- tion of Dr. Mendel Creighton, a Bishop of London, In succession to the most Rev. Frederick Temple, now Archbishop of Can- terbury, on the ground of Dr. Creighton’'s alleged desire to “underwork the work of the reformation by introducing the trink- lets of Rome,” etc., has been specially vigorous during holy week, culminated in giving extraordinary scenes in St. Cuth- bert’s Church yesterday, Good Friday, where, as has been customary during past years, the conduct of the service consisted in chanting St. John’s story of the passion on the same lines as the Oberammergau play, the Christ, Pilate and Calaphas. One of the principal feature mony is known as the “‘Venération of the Cross”’ and the crucifix w&s being removed from the altar to the steps where the clergy, acolites and congregation advance in pairs, prostrate themselves and kiss the figure of Christ. At the tail of the pro- cession was Mr. Kensit surrounded by a body of friends. Tékey advanced to the al- tar steps, but, instead of kneeling, Kensit horrified the congregation by suddenly seizing the crucifix, raising it aloft and frantically rushing toward the door, shout- ing: “In the name of God I denounce this idolatry and popery in the Church of Eng- land. My God help me.’’ A most painful scene ensued. A crowd of people surrounded Mr. Kensit and people struck him and wrestled with him, one man going so far as to thrust a handker- chief tnto Mr. Kensit’s mouth tn order to make quiet. Finaliy the congregation res. cued the crucifix and the police entered the church and arrested Mr. Kensit. Michael as a Pugilist. Casper Leon says: “I have heard much about Jimmie Michael's cleverness as a boxer. He. is a bantamweight, and I wish I could arrange a bout with him at. 105 »0unds.”” Among bicycle riders Michael's oxing ability has Deen discussed for a long fime, but it is hardly probab.e that he will take up boxing, in view of his plans in oth- er directions, AN AQUARELLE. white, the tapers’ My Lady Jean, In filmy, fleec Her goid hair gleaming ‘neat ght, Lies on a silken couch of palest blue— Heaped. high with plilows of the same eweet hue: he’s like the new moon on a summer night; Ink roses *scape her fingers—jewel bright, From out the laces of her gown one slight ed foot shine whitely in its satin eh My, Lady Jean.

C. F. VARNEY’S BROTHER GEORGE MAKES MARK LANGLEY SHOW HIS PAPERS. AN ARREST. a The Officer Went to Serve an Attach- ment, but the Youth in Charge Would Not Let Him Enter the Office. AFTERMATH OF Deputy Sheriff Mark Langler was put to rout yesterday afternoon by an empty gun in the hands of a beardless boy. The conflict was one of words, and the big deputy after calling a truce acceded to the demands of the young man behind the gun. William H. Stephenson, President of the Central Law Journal Publishing Co., fol- lowed up his criminal proceedings against Charles F. Varney with an attachment suit to recover the $1450 he charges the architect with misappropriating. The papers were given to Deputy Sheriff Langler to serve. With Mr. Stephenson be went to Mr. Varney’s office in the Wain- wright building, where he found the tm- prisoned man’s younger brother, George Varney, in charge Young Varney wae in the private office when the officer appeared and asked his business. Langler replied that he had some papers to serve. Varney asked to see them, but the sheriff demurred. “Then you cannot come in here,” the boy. “Oh, I guess we can,”’ returned Langler, and he laid hold of the door. . Varney fastened the lock. Then the sher- iff tried the small window. He got his head and shoulders through beat scrambled back when a revolver was poked in his face and a determined young man told him that it meant death. Langler started to parley, edging again toward the window. Varney seized a bi water bottle and made a pass at the of ficial’s head. Langler ducked back, and when he again came up the gun was in play once more. The Sheriff saw the game was up and agreed to exhibit the papers. They were handed into the private office where young Varney perused them slowly and carefaly. Then he opened the door and amilingly bade the discomfited officer enter. A box of private papers, 10 finished plans for buildings and a box of papers bélonging to a disinterested party were seized. Mr. Varney made light of the tncident., “The gun was empty,’”’ he said, “but I should have-certainly used the bottle, I was not going to let them in -because last week the office was searched by some in- terested parties during my brother’s ab- sence, and I dia not want a recurtence of that eort of thing while I am in charge.” Laugler feafs'the joking of his fellows and with great bluster denies that anything unusual occurred, MERAMEC SCHOOL ASSOCIATION Petition to Be Presented for the En- largement of the School. At a meeting of the Meramec Schoo! As- sociation last night in the school building, Meramec street and California avenue, a petition was drawn up for presentation to the board next Tuesday asking for the en- largement of the school building. Speakers dwelt upon the fact that both the Froebel and Mt. Pleasant schools had been carved out of the Meramec School District, still the building was unable to accommodate the children of school age in the vicinity. Large classes have to be transferred semi-annually to schools of higher grade. The patrons complain of the inconvenience of having to send their chil- dren to schools at great distances from their homes. An addition of fdur rooms would right matters. The board will be asked to build the extension during the ap- proaching summer. — ~ said Not an ordinary compilation of é of a6 gag ie. Lee OP SR Ae tae eee et lata at so OR - » ion!

DECATUR, I1l., April 9—Most men who go to the penitentiary go unwept. When the prison door closes on them they. are dead to the people who once knew them and in a few years they are forgotten. In October, 1889, Jack Faunce was sen- tenced to the penitentiary from - Macon County for life for the murder of Mat McKinley. To-day a petition signed by nearly 6000 citizens of Decatur and vicinity goes before the Illinois Board of Pardons asking for his release. The case is most unusual. The night of July 3, 1889, Mathew McKanley, a grocery clerk, was on his way home from the store. His way led through a disreputable quar- ter of the town. Two women were ac- costed by a man on the street. The women called for help. McKinley went to their assistance and was shot by the man and ilied, On the evidence of a stranger who claimed to have seen the shooting Faunce was held by the grand jury. The stranger did not appear at the trial, but a woman known as| MH es ‘the mysterious woman in red” did, and on Fe a a a a i i te ae her testimony Faunce was convicted. Main- ly because the woman was of notoriously bad character the jury fixed his sentence at imprisonment for life. The trial excited no unusual interest or Sympathy. Faunce’s people were poor and without influence, Faunce himself was not an especially valuable citizen. He was dis- sipated and had been punished before for minor offenses, By all the ruies that gov- ern public sympathy in cases of this kind he should have faded from the memory of the good citizens of Decatur in five years at the most. But he didn’t. A few who followed the trial that Faunce was innocent. As the years went by there were rumors that another man was the guilty party and there was much evidence that was not brought out at the trial. The rumors multiplied in num- ber and the conviction grew in the minds of many that serious mistake had tbeen made. Finally Harry M. Wheeler, a ‘bright young newspaper reporter, became inter- ested in the matter and began to investi- gate it. He obtained a number of affida- vits from witnesses who had testified at the trial of Faunce and from other wit- nesses who had not. ‘These affidavits to- gether with letters from prominent citizens and a petition signed by a large number of business and professional men of this city were laid before-the board of pardons and the pardon of Faunce was asked. This is now pending. The grand jury was in ses- sion at the time and they took the mat- ter up. The result of their investigations was that Joe Mauzy, son of the Sheriff at the time of the murder, was indicted. The trial which ensued was full of thrill- ing interest. Memories are not always good for nine years, and there was muen conflicting testimony. The able attorneys for the defense fought over ever step of the ground, and at the end of the three- weeks’ trial Joe Mauzy was acquitted. Then the people became wildly enthusiast- ic for the pardon of Faunce. Women car- ried petitions from house to house, Men would walk for blocks to find a petition to sign. Merchants laid petitions on their counters and called the attention of their customers to them. The grand jury pre- pared and signed a petition of {ts own. The judge who tried Mauzy signed the petition as did several members of the jury. In a few days the list was swelled to nearly 6000 names. The Board of Pardons has notified those in charge of the petition that they will take up the case on the 14th inst., and to-day the petition was forwarded to them, KEPT OUT OF POLITICS.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 9.—The chances are that Uncle Sam will «soon possess the finest fighting machine ever equipped for war—the most perfectly equipped airship in the country at the present moment. It may be bought outright for use against Spain. M. Jernague, the scientist in charge of the~balloon, described its features to a Post-Dispatch correspondent. “Ifa Spanish fleet should attempt to enter the harbor of New York nothing short of a cyclone could prevent this wonderful airship from going out to sea at a height of two miles and from there dropping down the most destructive explosives known to the scientific world. “In a few minutes the entire Spanish fleet would be destroyed, It would be a very difficult thing, as the guns are now mounted upon a man-of-war, to sight a gun upon the balloon two or three miles in the air, for the guns cannot be sufficiently elevated to get it in range. “It is claimed by the scientific war aeronauts that this flying machine can leave Key West any day, even in the face of opposing winds, and, hovering over Havana, blow the city in’a few hours out of existence. “Another plan which has been suggested by naval officers would be to have the airship accompany a squadron. The few hours’ warning it could give the Com- mander of an approaching fleet would enable him to prepare for battle In advance of his rival. An observer from a balloon a mile of two miles high with a strong glass, looking down upon the shore defenses, could discover batteries in sunken , emplacements that would not be visible from the deck of a ship. He could also see the number of guns, and their probable caliber and disposition in every fort would be noted and could be telegraphed or telephoned from the car of the balloon to the Admiral of the fleet. “Torpedo boats and dynamite gun vegsels hiding behind points of land, ready to dart off to make an attack, may be discovered by the observer up in the clouds. A rough chart can be sketched from the balloon, showing the position of every fort and battery and all shore defenses, and this chart would be sent down by a travel- ing basket to the Admiral, who could then select the best position from which to bombard or flank his enemy. During action with shore batteries the observer could keep the Admiral informed of the effects of his fire and warn him of the approach of torpedo ‘boats or any other attacking force. | “In case of a landing the best place could be selected. A map could be made of the route to take after landing and the strategic positions that ghould be seized and the disposition of the enemy’’s force.” The airship was built in France by the ,wheels by gearing and chains similar to great expert, Mallet. those used on bicycles, and these chains It was meant for arctic exploration and ,connect with propeller fans, one under the uch purposes, but war may change its lear to raise it, one in front to advance it. fate.

The Post-Dispatch depreeates reckless journalism of the kind exhibited in the publication by the Globe-Democrat of a forged telegram purporting to be from prominent citizens of St. Louis, all of whom were within easy reach for purposes of | verification, Denouncing the forger as a scoundrel and the forgery as a high crime does not dispose of the responsibility of the news- paper for publishing the forgery without making the slightest effort to verify it. Careful newspaper siderations of prudence .o interview prominent citizens in community in which the newspaper is published, toatelegram of such an unusual and sen: ational nature be ing their names. Ordinary journalistic in: tinct would suggest the news value of interviews with prominent citizens who were credited with*sending to a message ex- pressing such radical views and couched in sus h vulgar lan- managers would be prompted by con- | the | } public man a Fuagre. While the forger is guilty of a crime, the blunder of the | newspaper is so suggestive of recklessness and herdiless stupid- | tix, that {t amounts toa crime. ‘The paper shares the responst- | bility and in a large measure deserves the denunciation Gt its course expressed by the victimized St. Louisans. Of a stripe with this reckless dealing with the names of rrominent citizens is the lack of judgment and proper § re | exbibited in the publication of the combination of runior and | guess concerning the blowing up of the Fern. Both of the morning papers printed it, and the Republic gave it the mis- leading prominence of a piece of highly important news. This reckless publication of fakes and forgeries makes the | r pro- | judicious newspaper grieve. It reflects on the newspayp fession and injures the newspaper business. It tends to bring newspapers into contempt with the reading public to " ‘ 1 extent that even carefully managed newspapers sue somewhat from the discredit brought upen the profession by the reckless folly of the blunderers. It has recently been the duty of the Post-Dispatch to deny a number of false reports that have been published as new B by its: contemporaries. This denial of false reports is as) much a part of careful and successful journalism as the printing of the actual news. It is the duty of a good n paper to see that the public is not misled. Accuracy is the first rule of sound journalism. The pride of the Post-Dispatch in its magnificent achievement in gathering | the news about the Maine disaster and other important eve! is Based as much on the proved accuracy of its reports as on the fact that its news was the first and the fullest. The Post-Dispatch not only prints the news, but the news it trints is real news. It is accurate. —---- —~- 0 -—~—----—- Pierpont Morgan's hasty messenger to Washington might as well have remained in New York.

In other words the business man | cones and goes as a minor character who plays an unim- portant part in the drama. It isa worthy subject for some American or English artist Wao is equal to it. Mr. Hanna is a representative man, Mr. Pierpont Morgan is the symbol of modernism in one of its essential phases. There is good stuff in them for him who has the wit to see it. Let not the artists forget their vocation which Is to delineate reality in all its manifestations. Art no respecter of persona, and however uninteresting the busi- is ness man may be to the superficial observer, he is in him-| self just as fit for interpretation as the society men, the princes and the peasants who are the heroes of modern fiction, — ee -- 9 @Oe-— —- The merit system is gertainly necessary in public expendi- tures.

A committee composed of some of the most eminent busi- ness men of Massachusetts has sent a memorial to the Legis- lature on the condition of the cotton industry in New England. These gentlemen acknowledged that the manufacture is ina bad way. They attribute the decline to Southern competition ant to Jegisiation In favor of the laborer as against the em- nloyer, which has discouraged capital and driven it to other Sta ‘es, | Two things are directly in front of them—reduction of wares or abandonment of the business, either of which is disagree- able, The committee suggests longer hours of labor and a rednction of taxation on the plant withoul an increase on te real estate used for manufacturing purposes. But it is ‘y doubtful if the shrinkage can be arrested. is is a sad confession of failure. Protected wages are to ‘uced in spite of protection and the capital is to be eased i respondence with rr: ° | Zlegenhein to with regard | ay. | * | of time saddle all the load on the working people. Wil they not after! " all be forced to adopt the common sense view? Should they not acknowledge that the natural laws of trade rather than artificial legislative helps are the safest to adopt? Ta teach wisdom to New England may seem like carrying coals to Newcastle, Lut wisdom often finds comfort in commen senge, —* 4 o— lt is incredible that the President should place any credence | Ou Tumors emanating from Madrid to the effect that Spain | may agree to an armistice in Cuba. Such a thing is too pre- posterous for serious consideration. It would require the consent of the Cubans, would prolong the uncertainty and + _further unsettle business interests, would keep the Cubans in oO eats | Suspense Without really helping them out of their instant riisery and would only postpone the final settlement—free Cuba-—for an. indefinite time. The President may rest as- sured that it is but another trick of Wily diplomatists ready to seize upon any pretext for further delay. Minister Wood- ford’s weakness in giving voice to such shams merely adds to the humiliation of the United States. —_——_—_—__—_—_—_—_¢o—_____- FUBLICITY IN FUBLIC AFFAIRS. Whatever may be-thought of the course actually pursued by the President this crisis has certainly shown the folly of Secrecy in public affairs. The consular reports have that they would inflame the — the ground doubtful if been held back public mind. It on is — Pe eens spree ee the publication of the reports would have inflamed the public mind n have Ore than the hints of their horrible contents which given out. But granting that their publication would inilame the public mind, why should the President try been to avoid just pepular indignation and keep from the people information to which they are entitled? When the crisis became acute with the blowing up of the Maine the President must have known that the people would Stand by him in any manly policy and had he taken them into his confidence he would have been certain of himself because certain of the publie will behind him. Instead, the country was kept in the dark, feeding on such morselg as were occa- sionally thrown out by “indiscreet” officials. Had the cor- Madrid been published, had the American Government’s demand and the Spanish answer been given out the people would have been informed concerning the conduct of their own affairs and if well-managed publicity would have strengthened rather than hindered executive action. This was Mr. Cleveland's course in the Venezuelan crisis and he had every reason to be satisfied with the response which came so quickly and so earnestly. ° Publicity is Democratic: and privileg secrecy harks back to monarchy Ours is a government by and for the people and they have at all times a right to scrutinize the conduct of their chosen servants. The tradition which ordains any procedure implying distrust of the people is certainly undemo- tic, un-American and unwise. > o-----—__ ----- cra It is to be hoped that the patriotism which leads Mayor his Government for the Spain absorbed by the members be a stirring sight to see omer services to the Will be It would inpendine war with if his municipal family. cite officials and employes scrambling for places in the Mayor's regiment. st.- Louis would*tenthuse over it and Would give the regiment a send-off unparalleled in history.

Dr..George F. Hulbert, the Family Physician, Has a Battle for Life With His Patient, but Conquers. While temporarily insane W. A. Cock- rell, manager of the Star Elevator Co., last night threatened his own life, fired a bullet wild into the ceiling of his bed- chamber, and later attempted to kill Dr. George F. Hulbert of 4230 Delmar pboule- vard, who was called in to see whether he had injured himself. Mr. Cockreil pounced upon physician, with a revolver in one hand, while with the other, his fingers out- sretched, he reached for the doctor’s throat. Sheer strength and presence of mind saved the doctor from faliing a victim to ine wrath of the crazed man. All this happened at the grain merchant's fashionable home, 4228 Delmar avenue. he trouble began at the dinner table, when Mrs. Cockrell and the little daughter &reeted Mr, Cockrell, upon his arrival from gown town at 6:30 p. m, It was noticed that he acted rather quietly. He made no reply to the greeting, ‘(xcept that a few moments later he stated that he cared for nothing to eat. He leaned back in a chair, with a news- paper in hig hand, but he did not seem to be interested in its contents. Then sud- denly there was an outburst of angry words, The man stood up, stamped his teet and tore his hands through his hair. There Was a@ strange glare and glitter in his eyee, He screamed and swore and said some- the stalwart thing about ending it all, At the same time | he drew a revolver, and Mrs. Cockrell and her child, frightened, ran into the parlor. The crazed husband and father did not seem to pay any attention to them. He was talking and flourishing the re- volver. Then he mounted the steps to his bed chamber, shut the door and fired. The report was heard a block away. A passing pedestrian stated that he heard two shots. But Dr. George F. Hulbert, who a:- rived on the scene a few moments later and ialked with Mrs, Cockrell, says that only one shot was fired. A servant whe summoned the doctor was too excited to tell anything about it. Mrs. Cockrell was equally hysterical, and the information given the physician that Mr. Cockrell had fired a shot and was in his room. He might be dead, they ex- citedly cried, for there was not a sound from that part of the house. Dr. Hurlb.rt was not prepared for what foilowea. Armed with only his ‘‘emergency erip sack’ he reached the bed chamber. The door was shut, but not locked. He pushed it open and saw the ftigure of Cockrell crouched upon the bed. «ves curled up, his knees being drawn as though the man were suffering. His back was toward the door. Dr. Hulbert turned the gas higher, and walked around tou the other side of the bed. The sight would have unnerved any one The doctor said that he “felt enough.’”’ Two glaring .eyes, the lids open, expos- x the full pupil, were fixed upon him, and the hands, crossed, concealed a weapon. was the revolver from which the was fired. queer was ' midstream. i strokes, HEROIO EFFORT OF JOSEPH PALMER TO SAVE THE UN- FORTUNATE WOMAN. HER BODY WAS RECOVERED. Sorrowing Search Made by the Family, Ending in the Terrible Discov- ery on a Slab at the Morgue. Clad in the garb of glad Easter, Mrs. Lenora Holt stole away from her luxurtous home, 2518 South Broadway, yesterday afternoon and rushed madly to death at the bottom of the big river. Loved ones and the strong arms of a hero reached out to stay the suicide, but death won the race by little more than the length ot a finger tip. The hero was Joseph Palmer. The woman who so persistently sought death was the wife of Gustave Holt, a pioneer chinaware merchant, who for more than a quarter of a century has conducted a prosperous establishment on South Broad- way. Joseph Palmer—plain Joe Palmer, as he is known all along the river front— sat in his shancy boat at the foot of Quincy street, Bazing out upon the water, He saw a woman of pleasant face and fashiona»le dress emerge from behind a String ol cars on the levee, two blocks dis- tant. The woman walked slowly to a long pile of cinders on the river’s edge, a short dis- tance from where Palmer sat watching. She seated herself upon the cinders. -Sne removed her tastily trimmed bonnet and laid it by her side. With as much precision as though she had been before a mirror, in her own dressing room, she arranged her hair. Rising, she looked about for several minutes. The stylish appearance of the woman was in such striking contrast with the gen- eral surroundings of the territory she had invaded that plain Joe Palmer was los® in bewilderment. He wondered what it all meant. Suddenly the woman waved her arms frantically, uttered one agonizing cry and leaped into the murky current. Palmer was awe-stricken. He motionless by some strange spell. There was:a wild floundering in the water and Palmer saw only a ripple to mark the spot where the body went down. He cast off the spell that held him fast. One great bound, and the hero was in the river, swimming as only ‘a riverman can swim, to save the drowning woman. Close behind himin a skiff, came Palmer's son, who had witnessed only the last act of the thrilling scene, and was wondering what strange fancy had seized his father. There was a gurgling sound and the body of Mrs. Holt rose above the water. Manfully, Palmer pustied forward with outstretched hand. His arm fell short. The perishing body wént down again, Palmer paused and gasped for breath, came the body again, this time far out in Palmer made heroic forward Tossed on the waves but a mo- was held Up ment, the Woman sank again. less accustomed to dealing with the insane. | lgl.ng | Palmer Shot | Holt. Almost without knowing why, the physi- | clan stood still, speechless, watching Cock- ' rell, Then he turned to .ay his grip on a chair. At that moment a@ wild cry came from the crazed man. He sprang out of bed and leaped upon the doctor, One hand grabbed his throat. The other held tightly the revolver and pressed it to the doctor's face. With the alertness of the insane Cock- reil had taken advantage of the moment when the doctur’s eyes were off him. Cockrell had the etrength of two men. Hiis fron grasp nearly choked the doctor, when, by a clever move, the latter succeed- ed in grasping the insane man’s throat. There is a way known to physicians of subduing a frantic person by pressing on the jugular vein. This was what Dr. Hul- bert was trying to do. But the patient would tear away from his graep. had laid the revolver on the bed and was Cockrell | working with both of his hands at the doc. | 'mer and a policeman stood guard, pending tor’s throat. Finally the physician's artfulness proved the master. Cockrell was thrown to the floor, and then began another struggle to keep him there. The revolver was taken out of the room by Mrs. Cockerell, or one of ‘the servants. It was to be a struggle of strength., In a few minutes more the insane man seemed to be growing weak. tie was placed in bed, but he would not per- mit an examination, A shot had been fired, but he would not say whether he was in- jured, It was nearly an hour after’ the struegle began, and Dr. Hulbert gave up for the night any further search for possi- ble injuries. Later the leaden ball was found lodged in the ce.ling of the room, No police arrived until after a telephone message was sent to Capt. Boyd of the Seventh District, to send an officer to guard the house. Officer Jim Haley was detailed to investigate. He remained at the house a short time and then gave place to a friend of the family. “It is necessary to keep a watch on the man,” said Dr. Hulbert. “This micfortune seems to be a complete mental derangement. Possibly Mr. Cockrell had been drinking. Hie has not been in the best of health lately. 1 know that I was called and found hima raving maniac, He had shot off a revolver, und I was trying to ascertain Mhether he had injured himself. He would not have i°. and pounced tipon me. He tried to strangle me, and Itell you, that with his strength and a dangerous revolver in his hands. I felt as though something dreadful might happen.” FORTIFICATIONS ON THE FLORIDA COAST. Special to the Post-Dispateh, ST.

The first amateur baseball game of im- portance this season was played at the Pastime Grounds on Saturday, April 9, be- tween the Smith Academy and St. Louis University. The score was 16 to 7 in favor of Smith Academy. For the Academy, Meier pitched excellently. In the fifth in- ning he struck out three men in succes- sion. Gambie put up about the best game, He was behind the bat arid did not let a single ball go by him. Baker played well on bag No. 1, but his batting was ‘not of the best and not up to his usual style. ‘Bear’ Love played second " base. His playing was very fine. Capt. Steinwender played short stop. He batted well and also played his position in his usual style. Kelley played third, but did not geta chance to distinguish himself as things did. not come his way. Huiskamp played left field. This is his first year with the team, but he put up a very fair game neverthe- less. Arthur Wear played in center field. His playing is known of old ag he 80 suc- cessfully played in the field last year. Stockho played right field. He is playing on the Smith team for the first time this year. He is a very good player and is also a great pitcher. The fielders did’ not have much to do, as it was seldom a ball went that way. The St. Louis University team played an excellent game. Two star plays were made by St. Louls University, one being a liner to the third baseman, and the other was a one-handed catch by the left flelder. Ken- nedy pitched a good game for the Univers- ity, but his curves were soon found by the Smith team. The Smith Academy t @m has a full schedule this season as games will be played with the St. Louis High School, the Missouri Medical College and also the Western Military Academy and mamy others. All home games will be piayed ‘at the Pastime grounds. The Smith team practice daily at Ve Hodiamont.

THE WHEELING OUTLOOK. What the Bicycle Dealers Have to Of- fer the Public This Year. The bicycle trade of St. Louis, like every other kind of business in this city, has given evidence of its solidity, and capabili- ties of weathering every kind of financial and hard times storms. Notwithstanding the many circumstances that have operated against it in the past, it has come up smili- ing for the ’98 trade, and evidence is plenti- fui that the established ones will reap a plentiful harvest this year, : As yet it can hardly be said that busi- ness has fairly opened, for the springtime has been lingering a ,ittle too long in the lap of winter for the riding to be fairly sturted, though the early ones are choos- ing their mounts now and getting at the clever salesmen at a time when wiles explain the full points of merit of their wares and before the many customers fill up the shops. These are mere indications of what will come later. The steady sales in March and early April in the b.cycle line always point to a good rush a little later on. There is not now a bicycle store in town in wisi ., full corps of salesmen :s not busy, and possipers find little to do, 80 engrossed are the dealers. Of course one of the main mooted points lis chainless vs. chain, and advocates of both ‘their opinions. } ' { imaker sides are earnest in their arguments for Aside from this, however, the changes in the size of frames, han- die-bars, etc., afford many opportunities for the wise ones to talk A potent influence in the Inducements for the public to buy this season is the reason- able prices of wheels. One can now have anything he wants from $35 to $125. There is no standard price for a.l wheels, but ehch values his bicycle at what is fair ' ‘ iDave S., ‘and reasonable, and if one does not want a j ‘high-grade mount he can get one at police—just about the time that Palmer was | |} relating his experieh*e to the First Districe yfficers. “Tl ean only attribute my wife's self-de- struction to mental derangement.

The next important meeting of high-class pugilists will.be that between Gus Ruhlin and “Kid” McCoy. McCoy is something of a philosopher. lie believes that he cah defeat Ruhlf but he frankly admits that Ruhlin may very likely beat him. He ts anxious for the meeting, because he believes that sooner or later he will have to meet the big men or get out of the prom- inent position he holds at this writing in the pugilistic world. McCoy does not underestimate the skill and strength of the Akron giant. He knows the latter has faced some of the best men in the country and held his own with them. He knows that recently Ruhlin has improved greatly in the boxing line. It looks, too, as though McCoy realized to the full the big contract he had on hand and it would seem as though he hoped for victory more “3 clever tactics in the ring and a chance blow than anything else, To one not acquainted with McCoy’s skill as a boxer and ring tactician the task which he has set out for himself looks to be an im- ssible one. Compared to Ruhlin in build, eight and weight McCoy is at great dis- advantage. What makes it appear, though, shat he is certain of victory is the fact that “Doc” Payne, McCoy's present boxing part- ner, Was at one time the boxing partner of Ruhilin, and that he has advised McCoy that far the cleverer man and best fighi- er of the two, It would appear that no bet- ter line than this could be drawn, and yet it may be that since Payne was with Ruhlin the latter has improved greatly, In such a case Payne’s prognostications are worth nothing. The fact that the two men have picked Columbus, O., as the fighting-ground would appéar to mean that they were not very anxious for a meeting, for no sooner was it announced that they were to meet there than bets were freely made that the Ohio ' authorities would not permit so important State. a fight to be held in the capital city of that tuhlin and McCoy, however, had good reasons for going there. In the first lace, the Columbus people guaranteed a ig purse for the fight, and also guaranteed each man $1080 in the event of the fight not being brought off there. The killing of Stout ~s Gardner at Columbus last Thursday night adds another phase to the Situation, and makes it almost certain now that the Ruhiin-McCoy fight will not be ought off there. Neither of the men are worried over the situation, and they will probably pocket the forfeit offered by the Solumbus peonle and move on to some other | point. San Francisco will tn all probability get their game, as that ts the only ctty In | America where prize-fights of any import. ance can he bhrourht off withont Interfer- ence on the part of the authorities.

LOUIS BROWNS HOPE IT WILL UNDER THE NEW MANAGEMENT. SO DO LOVERS OF THE GAME. How Bad Luck and Stormy Weather Have Followed the Home Team Now for Several Seasons. It looks as though !1) luck and ill tortie would never let up on the St. Louis Browns, Even the elemente have conspired against the team. Two Sunday games have been postponed recently on account of wet weather. From the day the men went in training nearly a month ago rain and snow and sleet and ice have followed them with a relentless hand and interfered with their work on the dia- mond, The first year that Von der Ahe went into the basebaH business he knew nothing about the game, but good luck followed him from the start. The lirst year of his management not a single game was postponed on account of inciement weather. That year it rained all around old Sportsman's Park on differ- ent Sunday afternoons, but never inside the Park and it was often sunshiny in there when it was cloudy and wet in other ends of the city. In those days the “Dutchman's But sMce those days the luck has changed and bad luck has followed the “Dutch- man’’ and Brownies with a cruel hand. It is. to be hoped that this Baster morning the clouds will roll away and that this Easter week the Browns may start out on a more fortunatesand honorable career than has been their lot in recent seasons. On next Friday afternoon the home team, under its new management, will play the first game of ite championship series, with the Chicago Club as its opponent. It mat- ters not what may be the outcome of this game and the series of four which is to fol- low it, but one thing is certain, and that is that every member of the home team will put forth his best endeavor to bring vic- tory to his side. Tim Hurst, if he has ac- complished nothing else, has brought about good feeling in the ranks and a determina- tion to get hold of one end of the rope and pull together. In the training line the Chicagos have had every adyantage over their opponents. In this much the home team will be badly handicapped in their epeng game. One thing is certain, however, no St. Louis team has ever gtarted out with more well wishes than that which commences the champ.on- ship season under Hurst's management next Friday afternoon. That team and manager will receive the undivided support of the lovers of baseball in St. Louig until they prove themselves unworthy of it. The regular championship season of the National League will be commenced next Fr.day afternoon. The schedule of games They’ _ Are for that day brings the Western clubs to- gether on Western ground and the Eastern clubs together in the East. The opening ames will be }ilayed with these teams acing each other’and at the places named: Chicago at St. Louis. Pittsburg at Lotisville. Cleveland at ‘Cincinnati. Boston at New York. Brooklyn at Philadelphia. Baltimore at Washington. If condition is to be taken into considera- tion, the winners on the opening day should be the Chicagos and Pittspurgs in the West and Boston and Baltimore in the East. The games between the Cincinnatis and ven affairs. land and Cincinnati should be a desperate one. Those teams have been playing in the South and their players are in the very pink of condition and keyed up to the very high- est notch. Pittsburg and Louisviile are about even on the score of condition, Chi- cago holds the edge«on St. Louis in that articular. So, too, has Boston in that ine the advantage over New York. Con- dition is looked for to settle these eary contests. If it does not settle them, why, then, there is nothing in condition. John I. Rogers has gotten out an address to the Phiiadelphia public and in it he gives the players who have left that organ- ization a gentle roasting. He says, among other things: “The disastrous result to us of the championship contest of 1897 has caused a complete change in our policy. Certain men, whose soc.al habits were not conducive to their own at physical con- dition, but were demoralizing to their as- sociates, in addition to a few, who have been — retrograding in playing skill, were compelled to sever their connection with our club, and their places were filled by men of good, sober reputations and acknowledged pinying, abilities. ‘Every man who will wear a Philadelph a uniform this season has signed a total abstinence contract, which is otherwise elaborate and | all restricting, as regards the conduct and discipline of the player. It is to be hoped, Inay, it ts confidently anticipated, that no necessity will arise for the imposing o® the severe penalties prescr'bed for viola- tions of those contracts or of the club’s regulations. Their enforcement, however, will inevitably follow each default and de- linquency.”’ Nash, who was talked of as likely to play with St. Louis this year, is not likely to re- yort at all to the Philadelphia Club. He has een offered a salary, it is said, away below out, it is not thought that he will take the trouble to come on from Frisco, where he is now commanding a comfortable existence, Nash has had a brilliant career on the dia- mond, and he can not be blamed for not wishing to play second fiddle.

Jack Doyle, the ball player, saw the Sharkey-Goddard bout at San Francisco, and believes that the Aurtralian was a vic- tim of one of the under-the-rose tricks peculiar to the Pacific Coast clubs. “Bast- ern eporting men said after the fight,”’ ex- plains Deyle, “that Goddard had gone back and was but a shadow of the Goddard who fought Peter Jackson to a standstill in eight rounds at Melbourne in 1880.

VERY: LIVELY CHASE — THAT, IS WHAT CONNIE MACK’S MEN LED THE BROWNS YESTERDAY. | THE FIRST PART THEY LED. Move On and Managed to e Just Win Out. The lovely weather of yesterday after- noon, the only break indeed in the cold, wet spell since the Browns went into training, brought a crowd of nearly a tiousah per- sons to Spvortsman’s Park. The delightful weather and the kindly sun appeared to put life and spirit into both sides, ana they played ball fromthe start. Connie Mack’s Milwaukee team showed up good and strong at the bat, and for the first part of the game they led the Bréwns a very lively chase. 5 At one time it looked as though the visit- first beating they nad received this year. wee started the run-getting Brewers by hitting one right on the nose and sending the ball away over Holmes. It was a clean three-bagger, and /Lewee scored his run a moment later on Mack’s out from short to first base. 5 In the third, after two men had been re- tired, Lewre hit safe. Mack’s grounder got past Crooks. Then Barnes hit safe, and brought in Lewee and Mack’ with two more runs. In the fourth inning Gilpatrick went into pitch for the Browns, and Taylor, Mil- Waukee’s long pitcher, opened upon him with a three-bagger. He eame home on W eaver’s out from short to first. Up to this stage the Browns were without a@ run. In their half of the fourth Cross reached first bare on bails. Crooks hit safe to short left. Bierbauer got in a safe grounder to right. Hall went to bat with the bases all occupled. Clements called on him’ to hit the ball hard. .He hit it hard, but it flew high to center and Hail went out, but Cross came home on the play. In the fifth both sides drew a blank and in the sixth, after retiring the visitors, the home team went in to do something des- perate, After Crooks had flown out to right, Bierbauer got in a safe to left, Hall also hit safe for a single, sending Bierbauer to third. Turner flew out to center and Bierbauer scored. In the seventh Taylor went in to pitch for St. Louis, and after he had bowled out the Milwaukee batsmen without a run 8t. Louis went in to tie the score. Dowd walked to first and then stole second. Holmes was given a base on balls. Cross, with fa Ssac- rifice, advanced the two. It needed two to tie when Crooks came to bat. Heshit a beauty bright to the right fence for three bases and Dowd and Holmes came in with the runs needed to tie the score. In the eighth the Browns. after blanking / run, peg. Waldron, Milwaukee, scored what proved the winning Turner was given his base on bal's.

CHAT WITH BREWER SCHORR. He Was Knocked Off His Pins When He Saw Presbyterian Beaten by Isabey. Albert B. Hurd, now superintendent of the Harlem Racing Association and well known in St. Louis turf circles, reached here from Chicago this morning. Mr. Hurd says the outlook for racing in the West this year is particularly bright and that the reopening of Washington Park in Chieago will give racing in that vicjnity such a boom as it has not enjoyed in years. According to Mr. Hurd, Harlem will re- open its gates about May 24, and the racing at Roby will be inaugurated on May 6, — Mr. Hurd says there are now 300 horses at Roby and that there are new arrivals there dailv.

During the meeting of 18% an official of the Washington Park Jockey Club was arrested at the instigation of owners of the | Hawthorne race track. This action led the directors of the ciub to abandon the meet- ings of 1895, "96 and '97, and Corrigan’s part in the affair was also responsible for the closing of the Hawthorne track, the strife eventually leading to the closing of all tracks around Chicago.

RAILROAD CYCLING CLUB. All Arrangements Completed for the Forest Park Road Race. The Railroad Cycling Club held their regu- lar meeting last Monday night. Notwith- standing the bad night there was a full at- tendance, Chairman Endicott of the race commit- tee for the Forest Park road race, to be given on May 22, reported that everything was going smoothly, and all the details re- garding the race have been arranged. The club received 15 new members, several from the Terminal Association, several from the Iron Mountain, and some from the M.. K. & T., among them being Louis I. Finn, who made quite a record last year. Messrs. Finn, Cundiff, Thompson and Ker- win should make a great quartet riding from scratch. Owing to the inclemency of the weather during the past month, the club had to drop their runs as they were formerly laid out, and have taken the runs up again, and will run as follows for the coming month: Sunday, April 10, to Busch’s Grove, leav- ing headquarters, 801 South Twenty-third street, at 10 a. m., taking dinner at Busch’'s Grove. Sunday, April 17, the club will go to Ball- he rain or shine, leaving headquarters at a. m. Sunday, April 24, to St. Charles headquarters at 9 a. m., and Sunday 1, to Creve Coeur Lake, leaving head ters at 8 a m. Captein Endicott’s idea of making these short runs early in the season is to get the club hardened and used to riding by the time thet the roads get in good condition, and the intention is to make some excep- tionally long runs, as the club desires to Surpass in number of runs, and also in miles, all other clubs in St. Louis, and if Mr. Endicott’s intentions are carried out, on June 5 the club will go to De Soto, leav- ing headquarters at 4 a. m. This will be the first-of the long runs, and the long runs will then be continued until the end of the season, ending up with @ grand club run, either to Cincinnati or Chicago, which will be left to a vote of the club to say which place will be selected. Everybody starting in this run “must agree to ride there and back. The entry blanks for the road race are now in the hands of the secretary of the road race committee, C. L. Burlingame. Employes of all railroads should send for entre blanks as soon as possible so they will be leaving May quar- | certain of securing one in time to fill out properly before May 12, as that is the date that the entries will close. No entries will be received after that date, in order to give the handicapper plenty of time, * South Side Cycle Club Notes.

Nineteen members out |of the 40 that started braved a drenching and rode to Clayton. There a good dinner was disposed of and by making an early start the party got back to the club in time to avold a wetting.

SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUJS POST-DISPATCH—APRIL 10, 189% “IMMEDIATE ACTION PARTY”’”’ STANDS BY THE PRESIDENT. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 9.—Mr. A. J. Hopkins represents the Eighth Illinois District and is Chairman of what i®known as the “Inmimediate Action Party.” -He furnished the following signed statement of his position to the Post- Dis spatch cor- respondent to-night: “The position that the President has assumed, which, if we _— correctly un- cerstood him, will lead to the absolute dndependence of Cuba, { is one that meets with geperal favor among what is termed ‘the immediate action party.’ Many members of Gongress and some Senators would declare for war directly. : “The Pesident’s position, as we understand it, is: Armed intervention and the freedom of Cuba from Spanish dominion. It looks now, from an exchange of views with members of Congress, as if the Republicats will generaliy rally to his support. The present attitude of Spain, if maintained, will unquestionably lead to war between the two countries. = “Prompt action is what is desired, and both members and Senators would con- cede something in the way of reaching a decision as to the form of the resolutions so as to obtain prompt action.

Hliis contemplated leisuré wil! doubtless give us some inter- eatin books, for Loti intends to devote his first Suieure to a vovage in Asia. has also denied that he is interested in the Spanish-American trouble, save as the legal representative of the Ward Line of steam- ships, which are operated between New York and Havana and Central American countries The Post- Dispatch learns, howeVer, rpon highest authority, that President »Mc- Kinley, who, by the way, offered Mr. Mc- Cook three Cabinet positions in Jan‘tary, 1897, accredits him with a good deal deeper interest in the settlements of the Cuban trouble, The President believes, for instance, that Mr. McCook, while not the official egal rep- rescntative in Washington of the Cuban Junta at present, acted in that capacity when he brought to Washington in Febru- ary the letter Written by Senor de Lome, oe Spanish Minister, and presented it to t | Department of State. ) sublished Mr. to the day the De Lome letter was McCook had been one of the most Welcome callers at tae Executive Man- | sion, Since then, however, he hhas been persona non grata at the White House. The Pres!- dent was greatly displeased at Mr. McConk’s connection with the De Lome incident and has poigtediy declared that he would rather the letter written by the Spanish Minister had not been published. The President re- garded the letter as a private communica- tion between two gentle men and although in it he was called a “‘politicastro’’ he ‘did not consider the ublication of it War- ranted, and especially as there exis*s@& gen- eral belief that the letter was stolen in Havana at the inetance of the Cukhan Junta. The actual connection of Mr. McCook with the project to secure the President's sanc- tion of his scheme to legalize the bonds al- ready issued, or those which the apulsic of Cuba, so called, intends to iss to raise a war fund is a mystery to ma of the men who have enjoyed his confidence. He has presumably abandoned the project and The Massachusetts will take the place of the New York. The theory is that the New York will be held here and if the flying squadron is ordered to Porto.

THE VICTOR LIGHT 4 HARBER. because I was a woman. Because I was a woman had been the ground upon which I had been refused many positions and I was disgusted with it. I desired an oppodr- tunity to show that there was nothing in it. I insisted that Mr. Moore give me a trial as State Organizer and he finally yielded. “Success crowned my efforts from the first, and Mr. Moore was aStonished by the showing that I made. I am still en- joying my good luck, and I have not yet failed to organize strong societies wher- ever I have tried. I expect to organize them in every county in the State, and I have no doubt that my success will be greater in the future than in the past. As I accumulate experience, I will be better prepared to do my work. ‘“‘My method of organizing these soctietics is vercy practical. I go to the county seat of a county ahd begin immediately to go- licit membership. I always try to have my membership lists well filled before I make an effort to organize a society. I first go to the prominent people of the town and get their names. I then visit every voter of the town. I do not miss any of them. I do not care what thelr occupations may be, whether they are rich or poor. Of course every one whom I see does not be- come a: member, but I always get the names of the majority of those with whom I talk. “The membership fee is $1- ‘and the money collected in this way pays the ex- penses of the organization and buys enough literature to supply al] demands. “After the membership list has been as well filled as possible, a convention ts, called and the organization is effected. A presi- dent, secretary and treasurer are elected, A vice-president is elected from every town- ship in the county. These vice-presidents are expected to send to the president every month reports of the condition of roads in their respective townships. The members of the society pledge themselves to demand good roads legislation from their represen- tative. They also agreé to request the County Court to devote one hour of every session to a discussion of the condition of the public roada, “The purpose of all this Is to arouse en- thugiasm for good roads among the mem- bers of the society by showing them that they have a personal interest in the Ynove- ment. When the enthusiasm reachés the proper stage, the legislation will be forth- ccming. WILL BE A HUGE FLOATING HOSPITAL. Special to the Post-Dispatch. FORT MONROE, Va., April 9%.—The Cromwell line Creole, recently purchased by the Government and renamed the Sol- ace, is rapidly being converted into a huge Segne hospital in the Newport News ship- yara, This vessel will be one of the wonders of the navy. In equipment she wil! be as com- plete and as modern as any hospital in a large city.

Spectal ‘to the Post-Dispatch. NEW HAVEN, Conn., April %.—Pedro Mederos, a Cuban who graduated from Yale, who arrived here from Havana yes- terday, reports that stories of Cuban dis- tress have not been exaggerated in the least. “TI conld tell you of sights,” he said, “be- yond comprehension. You have been told of the starvation of reconcentrados driven from their homes and of the misery endured by them, Shall I teH you of one of the last sights seen by me as I left my home? Within a block of where I live, at the en- trance of a church, I saw seven dead bod- les—peopie who had starved to death. I saw a babe scarcely two days old at ita mother’s breast, and she dead. I saw a Chi- naman lying in the street with the corpse of a dog claspel tight In his hands.

Some Facts About the New City Hall. The formal occupation of the new City Hall by all of the municipal officials, which takes place at noon to-morrow, marks a sorrowful milestone in the progress and metropolitan greatness of St. Louis. It is the goal for which the city fathers have atriven during many years, and, in- complete though it is, ft 1s cause for sel‘, congratulation that they have been enabiea to reach it this early through the troubles that have beset its construction, It is a magnificent building in appearance, but will stand as a monument to incapacity. For nine years the new City Hail haa taken precedence in local issues, for the de- mands of the city for a building commren- Ssurate with its increasing growth in popu- lation, wealth and al) the factors that gv to make a city great, were imperative, men who planned the building had broad ideas as {to space, and the selection of Washington Square for the location was thoughtful, not so much for commanding osition as for the amplitude it would give or such a atructure. And this structure, in so far as “delightful dimensions” are in- volved, is on a scale to meet the most ex- orbitant demands of the city, even when it ma have quadrupled its present popula- tion, } The Anterior of the building ts far more impressive than its crumbling exterior for Whatever criticism its antique admixture of stone and brick and Gothic gables may eall forth the interior is thoroughly modern. k, gray marble an | and its approaches are as many as the points of the compass. The building sits on an eminence in an undulating park that will in time be beautified with trees and charm- ing flower plots, through which people will walk on broad granitoid roadways up to the long marble steps, past colossal pillars, through sculptured marble doorways, into magnificent corridors, which open on the three floors into offices. Some idea of the size of the building may be gained from the fact that it conta‘ns 5.500.000 cubic feet, making it take rank with the largest municipal bulidings in the country. The ordinance which authorized the erec- tion of the City Hall became effective April 4, 1889, and was signed by George W. a _* *s ye s ‘ rt Tit Le ; Se ae en” a ed ’ wee = relinquished that office to enter upon the duties of Governor of Missouri. he cost of the building was estimated at $1,000,000. Actual work on the building did not com. mence until July 3, 1890, when the corner stone was lald by Mayor Edward A. Noonan. The ordinance authorizing the building also created what was to be known as the City Hall Commission, to consist of the Mayor, President of the Board of Public Improve. ments, Comptroller, President of the City Council, Speaker of the House of Delegates and Commisgioner of Public Buildings. A premium of $5000 was offered for the architect who would submit the most ac- ceptable plan for the building, and it was earnestly contended for by architects from I to be designated by number or name. Sidel, Guissart & Ginder’s ‘Pro Patria was given first place by Prof. Ware of New York. he having been called Ip as 4n expert, but for some reason, never yet explained, Sidel, Guissart & Ginder were ignored by the City Hall Commission, and “St. Louis, 1892," submitted by Eckel & Mann of St. Joseph, substituted and award- ed the $5000 premium. This firm was also selected as architects of the structure. Mr. Mann's troubles began early and they never ceased until a few months ago, 80 far as the new City Hall was concerned, when te was paid $6000 to release his clans for services to the city. For three or four years the work went on by jerks and turns. he appropriations gave out, scandalg arose and ugly rumors filled the air about how vast sums of the people's money had been and were being squandered by politicians who regarded the City Hall funds as a prolific source of boodle. Jealousy and po- itical greed and hate began to figure in the hall’s construction, even before Hill & O'Meara had made its foundations. At last rumors of corruption became so rife that an investigation was ordered by a joint committee of six from the two houses of the Municipal Assembly. This committes conducted its investigations behind closed doors, and after six months of crimination and recrimination {t was finally concluded that In order to save everybody involved froen jail, it would be best to give them a nice, clean whitewash, declare everybody intensely honest; that every cent of the money had been honestly spent, and if the carping taxpayers would only be patient St. Louls would eventually have the finest and best City Hall In the United States. All the same, nearly $1,000,000 had been eaten up, work was virtually stopped on the hall and only the walls were up and the roof put on Work was practically sus- pended for nearly a year. The City Hall Commission was powerless to do anything. Architect Mann wes at loggerheads wit the Commissioin, and it looked as though the skeleton of a building was all pe yee ple were going to get for nearly 51.) Finally Mir. Mann was iet out altogether and in 18% B. H. Brown, an architect ot wide experience in New York the | was made rintendent of Const A : se ‘ee ow pence them, Superintendent Brown has been @ executive, who has put the bull the road to completion.» —— = When Mayor Ziegenhein, who ts a tie cal builder, was fastalled ae Mayen. aan ear ago. he declared he would celebrate is first anniversary in the Mayoralty by peviag. into the see City Hail. It haa en Ss pet ambition and he wi good his boast. : The hall is far from complete—tn fact tt is doubtful whether a year from now will see it a finished bullding. Thus far it has cost $1,300,000, and it is estimated it will take fully $990.4) to finish it. But it is amply comfortable to accommodate all the city offictals, In 189% it was decided that quarters should be completed as qu ckly as s- sible for the Assessor and Collector, and all the energy of the contractors was direct to the spacious rooms on the southwest and northwest first floors of the bullding. Be-« sides, it was found nhecessary to rep some of the fireproofing, as the new bul ing was growing old from exposure before it was half completed. It was aiso discov- ered that no provision had been made for ducts for the heating and vemtilating sys ‘t em. All of this work was done at & staze in the building's progress when b ing could interfere with its correct ment. The same rule was observed wit the wiring of tbe peshding for tight . « y will n | for a multiple arc branch system of electric lghti sup- plied by three wire feeders.

HO OWNS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AANDS N ST rOUIST é¢ ISS KATHERINE ALICE COL- LINS has the most beautiful hands in St. Louis. They are almost perfect. The contour of the arm is admirable. It is as nearly perfect as I have ever seen.” This is the verdict of Mrs. Edith Lewis, manicure. She has traveled extensively, both in this country and Europe, and has had any opportunities to judge of hands and their good points. She has resided in St. Louis three years. Miss Collins is a saleswoman at Nugent's ribbon counter. She.is 2% years old. Her height is 5 feet 6 inches, She has dark halr, which she wears braided and loosely colled at the back of her head and curled at the front. Her eyes are deep violet and shaded by dark silken lashes. The brows are dark and delicate of outline. Her face is rounded and full, and her complexion clear and rosy with the glow of perfect health. Her fig- ure is more than ordinarily attractive. MANICURE EDITH LEWIS GIVES MISS COLLINS THE PAL “Her hands,slender and tapering, are eas ly the most beautiful I have ever seen. The fingers are long and slender, and the joints are almost imperceptible. “Four tiny dimples hide the knuckles of each dainty hand. The nails can only be compared to pretty pink pearl. The skin is a clear, soft, velvety pink, without even a trace of a vein showing. Even to touch it is delightful. To see its equal is a pleas- ure rarely experienced. I can hardly con- celve of a fleshly object more beautiful. “Fortunately, Miss Collins has never had any hard work to do. True, her hands have been constantly employed for several] years, but their tasks were light and have not had the effect of marring their beauty in the least. “If Miss Collins had been at leisure all the time, with no other. care and no other aim in life than to preserve and enhance the beauty of her hands, she could not have bettered their condition. “Her nails are remarkable, considering the fact that they had never been scientifi- cally manicured unt‘l they came under my attention a few weeks ago. How she ever managed to preserve them so perfectly I curved at the ends. The quality of the nails is exquisite. There is not a flaw in them, and the color is enchanting. “‘Miss*Collins’ hand is not small, as one might imagine, because dainty things are usually small. She wears a No. 6 glove. “Another St. Lou's girl who has a beauti- ful hand is Miss Lilian Handlan, daughter of Alexander H. Handlan, Vice-President of the Buck Manufacturing Co. Her nails are kept in condition by numerous visits to a manicure, and thelr appearance is some- thing of which any young woman might be proud, “There are many pretty hands tn St. Louls, I have found, especially among society women. ‘The men here do not pay as much at- tention to their hands as they do in the East or in San Francisco and other Western cities. They are not used to the practice, I suppose, and many of them believe their friends would consider them effeminate if they knew they had their nails mani- cured. : ‘This is a mistaken idea, “T contend that a man cannot keep his nails in proper order—which few attempt to He has the most perfect nails I ever saw, FADS IN NAILS.

ID I go to hear the opera Monday |) night at Music Hall? Well, of course —you don't suppose I could miss a good thing like that, do you? Holy Week? I know perfectly well that it was. But I don’t think good music is any less elevating, educating or enjoyable in Holy Week than at any other time. So I went to hear Melba and Campanari sing, That was what.1 paid my little $3 for. Of course the DBusch-Faust contingent were there in a box, and from the moment they entered the auditorium every opera- glass in the -house ‘was turned full upon their party. In front, next to the railing, sat Mrs. Eddie Faust, her ringlety hair caught up in a soft Psyche knot by the in- evitable diamond star. She had on a low- necked gown, I suppose (although I really couldn’t see much of it), and her diamond dog-collar looked very stunning against the marble-white of her rounded throat. Next her sat Mrs. Adolphus Busch, hand- some and stately as ever. She, too, was wearing a great many jewels, I am glad to gay. We 8t. Louis people do not have many opportunities for reveling in the re- flected HMeht of diamond necklaces and ta- ra-ra’s and things, and it is on occasions like this that we should be indulged. Those Busch-Faust people are just as nice as they can be about quite approve of them. Dr. and Mrs. Otto Forster were, as usual, in:a box. And yet they seem to bear up remarkably well and enjoy life to an aston- ishing degree, considering gircumstances, Mrs. Forster is just a ‘dandy woman,” as 1 heard one of the younger set say tho other day. She is always so elegantly and tastefully gowned, and so cordial and gra- cious in her manner to everybody. Long may she wave! In another box were Mr. and Mrs. Alex Niedringhaus and their sister Irwin Hay- ward, while In the parquet were their dis- tinguished relatives, the Harry Papins— blonde, well-dressed and adamantean as ever, Gen. John W. Noble was an imposing group in the fourth Dox on the left, and near him was Dr. Eusthasius Chancellor, M. D. (Q. E. D.), 8. H. and M.

Two or three times during the evening, I saw from my point of vantage, the faces of Prof. William Schuyler and his sister Sophie, as they bobbed excitedly about among the wings of the stage scenery. That man Schuyler stands in with everybody, the Damrosch Opera Company. He is so versatile, too. Fancy one man being euper- intendent of the High School, professor of Applied Ethics, professor of morality, musi- clan, musical critic, artist and expert chem- ist. My goodness! In the dress circlé were the Wayman Me- Creerys, resplendent in théir beauty, size and strength, and back of their party wete Mr. and Mrs, Dan Catlin and the Titian- haired One. And oh yes! Jordan Lam- bert and his pretty lttle wife were con- spicuous among the boxholders. And I no- ticed that Mrs, Lambert wore the very new- est style of glove—reaching to just below the elbow. Very long gloves with short- sleeved gowns are no longer in vogue, say the London and Paris modistes. Speaking of modistes and things, I saw Sid Walker flitting airly about from box to box. And as I passed through the foyer on my way out of the building I caught fleeting Francis Lane, Elbridge Fulks, Truman Post, Mrs. Nellie Strong Stevenson, who, by the way, sailed yesterday for Europe to spend the summer, Miss Jessie Ringen, Sam Davis and Miss Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. Zach Tinker, Alex Primm, Johnnie and Arthur Lee, Jimmy Grover,, Tom Walsh, Judge Finklenbure, Judge and Mre.

- ' Qe } HOW TO KEEP WELL. ADVICE TO WORKING GIRLS. BY A TRAINED NURSE. F there is anyone who needs health and P | strength more than another it is the girl who has not-only her own living to make but that of others. It is such in whom J} am deeply interested, and desire to benefit by remarks on the above sub- oe... The first thing to consider is freedom of the muscles. This cannot be had if they are restricted in the least degree. If those ef the arm were bandaged as tightly as eas the corset binds the waist, they would become useless. This is just what happens to the muscles of the «aist. The girl whe wears a corset wii] never admit that It is tight, but she will confess that she feels like she is faljing to pieces if she takes it off. There is no better proof that the mus- cles have become weak and useless, instead of being able to do their legitimate work of supporting the trunk. Aside from this the whole digestive ap- paratus is pushed out of place, and held go tightly that it cannot do its work prop- erly. There are many cases on record where the liver has been squeezed so tight- ly that the lower lobe was nearly severd from the upper. The Chinese retalfate. when expostulated with for their barbar- ous custom of foot-binding, by saying that we arn worse than they for we squeeze God's life. Then are we so much better as cto foot binding? Tight shoes, shaped less like the human foot than the Chinese sandal, are seen daily. The result is every kind of deformity, and a mincing gait that is far from graceful. The circulation is also disturbed; the blood, which should be in the feet’ to keep them warm is some- where else doing harm. I have given a few of the results of tight clothing and will suggest how the change can be made without altering the looks. This can be done and with less expense than when wearing a corset. If one is stout there is even greater need to remove the pressure. There are numerous contrivances for supporting the bust. If the reader cannot get one of these, buy some drilling and cut it by a basque pattern, which fits well, having buttons and buttonholes in- stead of steels. Sew sufficient buttons on thé seams so the dress skirt will not sag, and will be high enough in the back for the front. Work buttonholes in the bands to match these buttons. By putting small equares of drilling crossway of the goods, inside the band. where the buttonhole is to be worked, torn out buttonholes will be avoided. A row of buttons below for the underskirt is necessary. If thin, a waist like this is all that is needed, with a full- mess set on the outside, in which the hair- cloth forms may be placed. The flannel petticoat is another nuisance. An extra pair.of under-drawers is warmer, does not cling to the limbs in walking; is more easily washed, is cheaper, in fact is more satisfactory in every way. The eques- trian tights may be worn over these in very cold weather when out of doors, unless one, is warm enough without them. These gar- ments cover the ankles, which need more than they get. One skirt of wash material, that takes starch well, is sufficient. If ex- tra fuliness is wanted, ruffles may be added “go sult the wearer. Sack skirts are fresh and clean every week, and do not hold dust like unwashable goods, For extra silk or white gcods may be worn. This should also be fastened to the waist as a tight band is as injurious as the corset. The garment worn next the skin is a gourcs of trouble in many ways. Heavy woolen underwear makes the skin tender, thus rendering one more liable to cold. The pores ca inot open and close rapidly, so as to keep the body of the same temperature, even when exposed to extremes of heat and cold. They are no more equal to this task than the muscles of the waist are to support the trunk after they have become weakened by the corset. Heavy cotton fleeced-lined ones are ample protection in the coldest weather in this climate, unless one is so weakened by disease that sufficient heat cannot be manufactured. Union suits are the best; but if these are not liked, then button the drawers to the underwaist, and cut off the lower part of the vest a little below the waist. This prevents overheating that part of the body. The clothing should be loose anough to allow one to take a full breath and hang from the shoulders. After once experiencing the comfort and freedom of proper clothing mothing could tempt the wearer to torture ber body again. {f you should put the dress of thé ordinary woman upon a laboring man how long to you suppose he would stand his work? No wonder we have so many invalid women, if the doctors were as eager to teach them how to'keep well as they are to pocket the fees after they are sick their condition would not be so deplorable. In this article only a few hints on diet can be given; simply enough to enable those in ordinary health to avoid sickness. But the treatment for the sick is too extensive a subject to take up at present. It requires knowledge and skill to treat the sick by hygienic measures, and I can only refer the reader to those who employ such methods. Diet is the most important factor in the preservation of health, and also the most dificult to manage. There are very few who understand that we generate disease in our bodies by eating food that cannot be made into healthy tissue; and if not healthy it must, of course, be diseased. Whatever the nature of the disease it all comes from bad blood, and of what is the blood made but food, drink and air? If we keep the blood pure, we do not furnish soil for contagious diseases. Such germs cannot thrive in good blood any more than seeds will grow without the proper soil. ft-has been thoroughly demonstrated that the only way to purify the blood is to stop putting impurities into it, and nature will do the rest. This includes every form of poisonous or irritating substance, such as drugs, pepper, mustard, vinegar, spices, coffee, tea, cocoa, etc. -_Nor must we forget that worry and anger produce poisons as injurious as any of these. Bread 1s called “the staff of life.” This term is incorrect, for the bread that is commonly used is robbed of its most nutri- tious constituents. A grain of wheat con- tains 15 elements, only three of which ap- pear in white flour. The salts, phosphates and most of the gluten, the bone, nerve and muscle-building materials, are removed. We feed that which is needed by our bodies to the cow.. No wonder she gives us rich milk! Besides the lack in nourishing qual- ities. white flour is intensely constipating. To make it worse, the cook adds grease (al- so indigestible), and then sweetens to give it flavor. Bread made from graham (not that which is a mixture of coarse bran and white flour, but the whole grain ground with nothing removed,) is wholesome. The whole wheat flour is also sweet and good, Any one who is able to make good white bread can make the graham by using- the white sponge, this so thin that it will just pour from the spoon, not drop. Have enough so that no water will be needed to make the desired amount; then stir in graham or whole wheat flour uatil a dough is. formed stiff enough to handle, but not too stiff, as it would be dry and harsh. , After one has recovered from the effects of stimulating substances he will enjoy the rich flavor of nature’s seasoning. A dog fed only on white bread will dle rin 40 days, but if fed on bread that is made from flour of the entire wheat, with water to drink, he will live out his full time and be healthy. To supply the elements that are wanting in white bread, meat is used; and In this way we get nutrition at second hand, with the addition of poisonous waste material. The ox or the hog eats the grain, and we eat him, If the animals were always in perfect health, the danger would not be so great; but very few are free from disease, and that often the worst kind, as consumption, or tuberculosis. One pound of grain fur- nishes three times as much nutrition as a pound of meat, and costs much less. Most people use more swine’s flesh than any other; though a more loathsome article of diet can scarcely be conceived. The hog wallows in filth, and eats filth. Like fles, hogs.are scavengers. They were made for such; and in this respect they are of ser- vice. As things are at present, we have made the hog our worst enemy; he is the innocent cause of consumption and cancer. At the back of his foot is an opening from which the foul corruption passes; and if this becomes closed, the animal] dies. Beef, mut- ton or any meat that lies in cold storage or elsewhere to make it tender, is not a great improvement. If kept much below the freezing point the process of decay goes on till the emeat is tainted and has a bad odor. If one must eat meat, wild game is freer from disease. Chickens, ducks and geese are scavengers; if eaten they should always be drawn as soon as killed. Food fried in grease is very indigestible.

T is a nervous disease and exists largely | in the imagination. Weakened by the straih of business and pleasure the patient believes that he is about to die from varied ailments that are without a pathological cause. The common idea is of the presence of heart disease, Bright's dis- ease, the immunence of nervous prostration, consumption and many other ills that hu- mah fiesh is heir to. Sometimes the victim worries himself sick,but I know cases where the most healthy, able-bodied, strong mind- ed man is overcome with the fear that some fatal malady has seized him. “This is merely the workings of a disor- dered nervous system and can only be cured by tonic treatment and persistent sugges- tion that there is nothing wrong. Neuras- 'thenia has only been recognized as a dis- ‘tinct malady of late by general practition- érs. In women and children it would be ‘called hysteria, although it Is not exactly that, as the patient does not give way to violent emotions. “There has been conclusive proof that the malady is inherited.

LOUIS WOMAN LEADS HER SIS IEKo | 10 TAE MONOPOLY OF A NOVEL TRADE ISS DIXIE LEE STERNE of S8t. M Louis is one of the very few suc- cessful traveling saleswomen in this country. She is*employed by a St. Louis wholesale grocery house to introduce special goods. Her territory extends from Boston to San Francisco, but she is only required to make the larger cities. When éhe arrives ina city she goes to the best ho- a terest persons in new goods by merely dis- cussing their qualities, for so many new articles are put on the market every day that they will be confused in the mind of the one whose interest is sought unless some unusual circumstance fastens a par- ticular article in his memory. Men call with such things frequently and there is nothing in their coming to impress the , tel and secures apartments. She begins her work immediately and completes it as rapid- ly as possibile. She covers every field, how- ever, where she may create a demand for her goods. She has numerous samples to distribute, and a large number of people to see. But she has a system by which she works and which enables her to perform these duties without the least confusion and worry. She its required to interest physi- clans, She must see every physician in the city where she is stopping and tell him of the merits of her goods. As soon as this task is done, Miss Sterne packs her trunks and sends them to the next city on her route.

It has taken St. Louis nearly a century of corporate existence to secure a home for its municipal officers that did not cause its citizens to blush when asked by stran- gers to be shown the Mayor’s office. For whole decades of that time the city |had no building of its own fit to house its 'officials and commodious enough for the transaction of public business. It had to rent them, and as a consequence depart- ments of the government were located blocks from each other. From 1809, when the city was incorpo- rated, to 1823, the city was governed by a ' Board of Trustees, three in number, Pierre | Chouteau was the ruling force for many | of those. earlier years in the town board, /and the first election for trustees was held at his house, on a Sunday, and so were | several other subsequent elections, It was a pretty good government, so history says, | that the Chouteau triumvirate gave the | sparsely settled town that straggled along _the river front, and little did they dream ‘that it was destined before the end of the ‘century to become the metropolis of the | Mississippi Valley. The old Courthouse, had, was built in 1774 and stood on the northwest corner of Third and Plum streets. It was torn down in 1875. It was in a room of this quaint old building that the town’s public business was transacted for probably a quarter oOf:a century. It was in the old Courthouse that Dr, William Carr Lane, first Mayor of St. Louis, was inaugurated, in March, 1823. Lane de- feated Pierre Chouteau for the mayoralty, receiving 122 votes to 70 for Chouteau. The Mayor was elected every year in those days, and Dr. Lane must have been a very wee oe gd officer and clever poli- tician, for we find him holding the mayoral- ty until 1828, when he seems to have lost his hold on the popular will for a period of ten years, or voluntarily retired from pol- itics; but in 1888 he came to the front again as chief executive of the city. Along ir the early 30s the city built what was then a fine new market-house, on Main street, betw.en Walnut and Market stree:s It was a brick structure, two stories high, and the city offices were on the second floor. They remained there until the dis- astrous Bre OF 18439, when the market-house wis partially destroyed, along wit} Ly of the records. . . The city then rented quarters in is now the Chestnut Street Police yore wtion, near Second _ street, and remained there until the Courthouse was completed It then secured quarters on the Fourth street side for the Mayor, Register Comp- trolier and one or two other officers and remained there until 1873. The Courthouse was the property of St. Louis County and the city had to pay heavy rent for its domicile, amounting in the latter years of its stay there to $54,000 a year. This was considered not only an exorbitant charge against the city, but local pride insisted that there should be 942 31,229 8,580 8,500 82,578 80,500 3,016 7,200 0 8,007 7,950 5,243 792 5,544 the first St. Louis carried free as baggage on the rallroads. ‘and these are shown by light lines.

He was several times a mill- ionaire, had been elected on a platform that meant to push St. Lou's to the front as one of the leading cities of the West, —, he vigorously addressed himself to the task. In 1872 the City Council passed an ordi- nance appropriating $2,000,000 for a new City Hall, and the authorities were to issue bonds to that amount. But Mayor Brown vetoed the bill, on the ground that the city needed better streets more than it did a new hall. At the same time he deter- mined that the city should cease to pay such high rent for quarters, and set the machinery in motion to build a temporary hall. The city owned the ground on which is located the present old City Hall, and it had long been used as a one-story tobacco warehouse. All of that was cleared away and the new building commenced. It was never lutended to be the city’s permanent quarters, and no effort was made at archi- tectural design. It was to be on the style of a mammoth warehouse, three stories high, cut up into apartments for branches of the city government, and such ‘t fs, fill- ing not well but sufficiently the city’s pur- | poses within its rough brick walls, that reach from Market to Chestnut streets, along Eleventh, half way the block west. Orders were given the contractors that! the building must be rushed to completion, but to the chagrin of Mayor Brown, when. it had progressed two stories, the con- | tractors failed and went into bankruptcy. The building was to cost $74,000, and that amount had been consumed. Undaunted bv such a backset. Mayor Brown took hold of affairs, and under h’s direction the build- ing was completed a few months later. Its total cost was about $104,009. The history that St. Louis has made in 'the old City Hall has rendered her famous land at times has drawn to her the eyes of | the nation.

i UU AT AL —>—_o—o— @ ASTER SENTIMENTS FROM SIX PULPITS. “If Christ Were on Earth To-Day?” the Theme | of the Bishop Tuttle of the Dioces2 of Mis- souri: é¢ RF Christian folk be indeed risen with rf Christ, let them seek things which are above in doing justly by fellow-man, of whatever nation or country, loving mercy, and walking humbly with their God. Let us be just to the Spaniards on this Easter morning, as well as the Cubans, and not arrogate to ourselves the. right or power to right all of the wrongs of other nations. We are only one nation among many, and the question is not one eo much of humanity, but of international! law. Therefore let us walk humbly and be sure we are right. I think this would be Christ’s message to his children this troub- lous Easter."”’ Rev. C. J. Otto Hanser, pastor of Trinity German Lutheran Church, Fighth street and Lafayette avenue: ed tar: great importance of the resur- rection of our Lord Jesus Christ is shown by St. Paul, 1 Cor. 15, in the following words: If it is proclaimed that Christ has been raised from the dead, how say some of you that there is not resurrec- tion of the dead? But if there is not a resurrection of the dead neither has Christ been raised, and if Christ has not been raised up your faith is deceptive, you are still in your sins; then also those having fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ we are more pitiable than all men. This is most certainly true. For without resurrection there is no life everlasting. Without this most precious hope the earthly life of the (hristians with their self-world denying is nothing but a great fraud and deception. But even the life of all men with its cares and sorrows, with its stckness, pains and fear of death, with its shattered hopes and broken heart—this life in this dark valley of tears and sighs from birth to death, with feeling hearts and full consciousness of its pain, is too miserable to live—with- out the hope of eternal joy and peace. This _brings the resurrection of Christ. St, Paul continues: ‘But now Christ has been raised from the dead, a first fruit of those _having fallen asleep; for since through a man there is death, through a man also there Is a resurrection of the dead.’ “But now Christ has risen, you Chris- tians are no more the most pitiable among men, your faith is not deceptive, your hops not jost. No, you are the most blessed of allmen. In the dark valley of tears shines the heavenly Easter sun, and there is now for all believers no more darkness of sin, curse of death, hell or damnation. but all their Preachers. grace, all salvation. “Let the infidel deny Christ’s resurrection and let him make a fool of himself and make his life hopeless—full of fear of death, but we C hristians, by the grace of God, will rejoice in the words, ‘Oh, death, where is thy sting; oh, grave, where is thy victory?’ “Thanks to that God who gives the vie- tory to us through Jesus Christ, our Lord.” Dr. Mosheim Rhodes, pastor of the Lutheran Church: é —~>—_+—o-_o— « _¢— 4 — 0-0 © o-oo @--O-- #004 #000 0 | “THE MILLENNIUM IS NEAR,” CRIES REV.

Withdrawing so many men from agriculture would cause a famine, and the dreadful loss of life tn a modern con- flict would render it difficult to bury all and conditions would be ripe for the pes- tilence, Then he drew attention to the fact that prophecies regarding the rich were being fulfilled, education and travel were the rule now and not the exception, and all this had been prophesied as to take place in the just days. “The coming of the Lord,” he concluded, ‘is the only hope there is for this groan- ing, sin-cur earth, and when he comes (be ushered In the great thousand- um of peace and joy, when [ | A. , sie (TAN EASTER SERMON BY “— a THE DEAN OF CANTERBURY. —_—_ ---— Written by the Very Reverend Frederic W. Farrar, D. D. FR. S., Especially for the Sunday Post-Dispatch. “Who Shall Roll Us Away the Stone From the Coor of the Sepulcher?”’’—Mark xvi., 3. O asked those poor Galilean women—the wives of peas- S ants, the woman who had been a sinner and a demoniac, the humble friends of their crucified Lord as through the dewy gloom of that spring dawn, more than 1870 years ago, they groped their way on that first Easter morning to the garden tomb. They were carrying their spices for the corpse. It was the last self-sacrifice of a despairing love. Jesus, their Lord, their Saviour, their all-in-all, had been crucified. They hadspent the mst desolate Sabbath that ever was—and Christ was dead! No more (so they thought) no more for them the light of his countenance, the touch of His healing hands, the inspiration of His example, the con- solation of His gracious words, They were going to seek a dead Christ, and with Him all their dead, plucked up by the roots. A stone blocked up the door of the sepulcher where lay the dead; a heavier stone lay on their own crushed hearts as they slowly sped through the darkness of that unrisen morrow and sighed forth the de- spairing whisper, ‘‘Who shall roll away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?”’ Yes, they sought a dead Christ, and nothing more. Though He had told them that He should rise again they were too familiar with death’s unbroken si- lence and unutterable darkness to dream of a Christ who should rise and be ative forevermore. Had they not seen Him hanging dead upon the cross, the limbs telaxed, the body cold, the head drooping on His shoulder with its crown of thorns, the spear gash in His side? How could they believe that He was living, even on that desolate Sabbath, when His in the tomb? How ‘could they grasp the truth, scended into’ hades; that He had gone {to preach to the spirits in prison; that His footsteps were to illuminate forever the valley of the shadow, and that, shat- tering at a touch the gates of brass and smiting the bars of iron in sunder, He had but gone to release death’s prisoners, and leading His captivity captive to sweep heavenward, His chariot wheels thronged with the innumerable multitudes of the redeemed? Ah! how often we know it not! How often God seems most far away, even while dramas of unimagin- able mercy are being enacted behind the veil—the veil so im- pen@trably opaque to guilt and disbelief, so transparent to the @ye of faith! And then up sprang upon them the sun, the Easter sun, the burning sun of a Syrian spring! In gne moment the earth was bathed in gold. The rose of Sharon and the lily of the valley flushed to life and breathed with perfume, and the light made many colored diamonds of their million dew- drops. The breeze whispered in music of the dawn and the world awoke, and lo! they found the stone rolled away, with- out their poor aid, from the door of the sepulcher and angels in it; and the garden glimmered with angel presences and was vocal with angel words, and on the tomb of their own dark hearts also rose the sun of righteousness with healing in its wings. Yeu, the sun of righteousness, for at last Christ Himself appeared to Mary. Then was their anguish scattered like a morning cloud, and thereafter the whole world learned to echo the enraptured “‘Rabboni!’’ ‘‘My Master!” of the Magdalené, and the “My Lord and My God” of doubting Thomas. On that morning there paSsed into the hearts of the disciples a thrill of rapture, an electric Mash of hope, which since then has never ceased to gleam and to vibrate The hush of speechless stupefaction, broken only by sobs and groans, which had followed the aw- ful tragedy of Golgotha was now broken, first by stray chords, which-sounded like the tuning of angel harps and the preluding to angel melodies, until at last they swelled into that resonant fugue, that bursting multitudinous chorale f Baster, which has rolled through all the later ages its tri- umphant, tumultuous acclaim. What did it mean? It meant that they and we and all mankind were to have not a mem- ory only, but a presence; not a dead ChriSt, but a living Christ: not an absent Christ, but a more closely present Christ: not a blighted expectation, but a boundless fruition; not a helpless and humiliated sufferer in the hour and power of darkness, but Jesus the mediator ofi the New Covenant, the Holy One of God, the God-man, the King eternal, immor- tal, invisible, with the rainbow, in sight like unto an emer- ald. shining forever over his crown of seven stars. “‘Why seek ye the living among the dead?’ So asked the angels. “He is not here: He is risen, as He said.’’ “Cling not to Me,” He said to Mary, “for now my physical presence is to be changed for one nearer and more glorious, even that spir- itual presenee—wherewith I shall be with you always, even to the end of the world.” “I am the living one and I be- came dead, and behold I am alive forevermore,.”” So he spake in the Apocalypse to His servant John. ‘Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the world.” So he promised to all His Apostles, and through them to all His people, before He was taken from them into Heaven. This is the full meaning of these good tidings to us and to all mankind of a Saviour which is Christ the Lord. They were announced at the first Christmas; they were consummated at the first Easter, Reg- navit a ligno—He reigned from‘the accursed tree. The cross, the Lord of Glory was for our sakes perfected in suffering, was but a tree of life; the death was but the birth- throe of an infinite and eternal redemption; the earliest thrill of a living regenerative influence, which shall not cease until evil has been forever vanquished, and the king- doms of this world have become at last the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ. The stone was _rolled away, but alas! for how many has that fatal stone been rolled back again to the door of the sepulcher and back upon the human heart. Because we are weak and sinful and faithless; because want and woe are everywhere; because deserved punishment still dogs Iinevit- ably the heels of crime; because soul after soul forfeits the Eden ef its innocence, is driven from the presence of God and sees the avenging gleam of the cherubim, with their sword of flame; because earth Is still What earth is and man still what man is, how often are our feelings more like those of the dejected disciples, as they watched from afar the shame of that cross on Golgdtha, than like those of the women when they saw the ange Is in the garden, or those of the Apostles, when, with an unimaginable ecstacy, they clasp inseparable hands in joy and bliss and said, “The Lord is risen indeed and hath, appeared unto Simon.” Often and often we seem comp elle#@to sigh helplessly as they did, ‘Who chall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?” It seems as if it still lay there—cold, heavy, immovable above the dead—and nothing but prayer and self-abasement can then restore the living Christ who seems so dead to us, the near Christ who seems 80 far away. How many have cast away their faith, have lost altogether the living Christ! To tiem He has become nothing but a beautiful story, and a a handful of c rumbling dust. And so one has confessed in touching words: That gractous child, that thorn-crowned Man, He lived while we believed, Now he is dead! Far hence be lies In that lorn Syrian town, And on his grave with shining eyes The Syri.n atars look down. To all these the voice of Easter says, year after year, for- ever, ‘Be not faithless but believing.”’ Oh, whg! even in face of this constant miracle of spring, of the risen flowers, whose tender feebleness, taking into themselves the immeasurable forces of nature, have triumphed over their wintry grave— why should it seem impossible to any that God should raise the dead? Is it more strange that God, to save the world which he has made, should not have left Christ’s soul in hades, nor suffered His Holy One to see corruption, than It is that the tiniest bubble of air, were it overwhelmed in the Erebus of waters, under the lowest ocean depths, will yet rise by its own hidden law, rise inevitably, irresistibly-—rise be- cause air cannot be holden of the waters—rise to join its own upper air? Was that divine soul of Jesus, the breath of God, the divinae particula aurae, less potent against mere death than the tiny air bubble against the infinite ocean? And ts any man able to believe that all the m corpse lay that He had de in the souls of men. whe re by eS RA Ge ssintilid mS own hopes were twice Barren ol ‘ae it was the power, Church of God, and all the beauty of spiritual holiness in the lives of good men and women, ten thousand times ten thou- sand, and thousands of thousands, were wrought only, as sceptics would have us believe, by the force of a feeble Gali- lean fraud—half He, half hallucination—adopted by a handful of unlearned and ignorant fishermen, fresh from their boats and with their clothes wringing wet? The pillared firmament is rottenness, And earth’s base built on stubble. Oh, roll away that stone, thou risen Savior! Roll it away from the sepulchers of the doubting hearts of men! If we be- lieve in God at all, let us accept the witness of all history to the resurrection, for history is but “a civil theology of the Divine Providence!” Get the start of the majestic world And bear the palm alone? Is our conception of God’s moral government so abject as to persuade us that the secret spring of this strength of irresist!- bie weakness was a hysteric. vision or a fraudulent inven- tion? No; but it was “‘the power of Christ’s resurrection.” W hat was it that crumbled into dust the religion, the might, the grandeur of the old paganism? What was it which changed the thunderbolts of the Capitoline Jupiter into the Keys of St. Peter, and forced the dreadful Pallas Athene of the Acropolis to yield her Parthenon to the humble Virgin of Nazareth? A lie? No; but it was “the power of His resur- rection.””’ What was it which won to order and obedience the wild hordes of Northern barbarians, making them lay aside their savage ferocity to accept the White Christ, the Prince of Peace, and so turning an effete civilization into a new Christendom? What is it which to this day smoothes the child’s dying pillow, and fires the soldier’s courage, and steels the martyr’s soul, and at the same time enables men in a weary world to sleep “in that chamber which opens toward the sunrising and which is called Peace,” assured that their faces, however darkened now, shall soon be golden with the glow of the dayspring from on high? What was it which sustained alike and in equal blessedness St. Rose, the young- est of the saints, and St. Philip Neri, one of the most aged? What was it which came like ‘‘a moist, whistling wind’ amid the fires of martyrdom to the old man Polycarp at 8, and like a gleam of heaven to the young boy Pancras at 14, when the axe fell upon his neck? Was it a foolish-fraud? iNo; but the divine power, the invisible power of Christ’s resurrection, whereby also, ; When our last feeble breath Shall rend the veil in twain, By death we shall escape from death ‘And iife immortal gain! But there {s a stronger evidence for the resurrection of Christ than even the witness of history. That “power of Christ’s resurrection’? which so absolutely subjugated both the world of civilization and the world of barbarism was manifested by a proof still more signal. It is dally evidenced by the far more supernatural resurrection of miNions of hu- man souls from a deeper death to a life yet mere glorious— from the death of sin to the life of righteousness. The resur- rection of Christ was divinely attested by the revelation of a new ideal, and the power granted by His promised spirit, even to the weakest and humblest, of attaining toit. It was attested by that purity and holiness which the risen Christ inspired and could alone sustain. In one brief, unanswerable challenge Tertullian, in the second century, proved to the heathen the truth of Christianity when he dared to say be- cause it was true, “Nos soli innocentes sumus.” It was that new innocence which evinced the mortal and spiritual vic- tory of the Gospel and convinced the world Christ had risen, because they also, who loved Him, had visibly.passed from death to life, from being dead in trespasses and sins to holi- ness and immortality. In the old world a holy life, a pure life, as judged by the Christian standard was almost un- known. From all the annals of antiquity we could scarce choose five names of men whose lives came up In any sense to that angel measurement or wi: ajked in that air of glory; but in the Christian world there is ‘not a village, not a ham- let, scarcely even a house, among those who name the name of Christ, in which some man or woman—dear saints of God --is not walking with the risen Christ in newness of life. Have you been so hopelessly unfortunate as never to have known them? Among all the ignoble, the indolent, the In- carnately selfish, among all the hunger, thirst, fevers and appetites, among the base faces, the bodies wanting souls, have you ever seen on human countenance, and not in dreams, the force of manliness, the bloom of modesty, the glow of sympathy? Have you walked along life’s dusty or miry path, among the molehills of sham and semblance, of vulgarity and selfishness, of effeminate religionism and artificial convention, and have you seen no sunlit eminence of pure and lofty man- hood? Among the scrub and thistles, the starved brambles end jagged bents, have you never been able to look up to some cedar of Lebanon with the purple bloom on its glorious boughs? If you have never seen them, I pity you; if you have, you have seen ‘‘the power of Christ’s resurrection,” you have seen true living men among the masks and phantoms and the gibbering ghosts. A dead oran absent Christ would have as little saved the world as a dead Socrates, The hopes of humanity could never rest on a sealed sepulchre or a hand- ful of gray ashes in some smouldering urn. But when, bursting from the tomb, Christ manifested Himself as the Lord of Glory and of Life the world took note of His disciples that they had been with Jesus. Mankind was conquered by the sanctifying faith of those whose eyes even at the stake shone with heaven's own light, and who even on racks and in dungeons rejoicei with joy unspeakable because they had seen His face and His name was written on their fore- heads. And when we thus belleve tn Christ’s resurrection and fee] {is miraculous force in our own resurrection from the death of sin to the life of righteousness, what a flood of glory is poured on the sad phenomena of death and the Intolerable in- dignity of dust to dust with which we are all so famillar! ©, the tears we drop on dead faces! O, the sound ae of ever- lasting farewells! O, what turning away, in the anguish of helpless bereavement, from the open grave and from the cof- fin on which the wreaths have already begun to fade! Oh, the sobbing of the winds of autumn! Py the sunset streak of stormy gold! the poor heart, thinking, In the | mamta Night ts coming and the grave {a cold How many, how many can I recall in the past of the play- mates, the companions, the dear, familiar faces, who have be- come dust and ashes!

All flesh {[s grass, and the glory of man as the flower of the grass! The grass with- ereth, the flower fadeth. I have seen the stripling die. And the strong man meet bis fate.

MEN WHO HAVE FALLEN, Former Convicts Bless This Pastor of the Opem's Door Mission. 4 RS. lL. B. HATNDS jis pastor of the Open Door Mission at 1626 Franklin avenue. She is devoting her life to the reformation of men in penitentiaries. One of her ideals is to establish a great mission where erring men may be given an opportunity to start life anew. Every effort she makes is put forth in behalf of fallen humanity. She married that she might be better’ able to prosecute this work. She is devoting her efforts now to the prisoners in the Southern Hlinois Peniten- tiary at Chester. At the mission of which she is pastor she holds services every night, assisted by her husband, except at such times as she is absent from the city. Mrs. Haines was born tn St. Louls some- thing more than 30 years ago. At an early age she was married to A. K. Veatch. Only a few months ago she was married to Mr. Haines, who its also interested in mission work. The first thing you notice about Mrs. Haines is her voice. It is “soft and low— an excellent thing in woman,” and well calculated to turn a sinner from the error of his way. It is sympathetic—even pleading, at times —and by many is considered her_ principal charm. Yet her large brown eyes, fringed by long lashes and shaded by straight, deli- cate brows, are not to be disregarded, Above them is a broad, well-shaped fore- head, from which her hair, black and fine, is brushed straight back. Her nose is not more than ordinarily prominent, but her chin attracts attention at once. It is not obtrusive, yet it Is suffi- ciently long and square to impress one with the idea that the owner is a determined person, with a distinct object in life and a sufficient amount of perseverance to carry it out successfully. And this impression is strengthened by the appearance of her graceful but dignified figure of 5 feet 4 inches. She usually wears a close-fitting taflor made gown of gray cloth, and this, with her erect carriage, gives her an appearance of additional dignity and stature. Alto- gether she would be a compnanaing figure in any assembly, . Mrs. Haines said: “Through my own experiences I had seen the consequences of sin, became converted, joined the Baptist Church and was bap- tized. After that step I felt the call of God to devote my life to the uplifting of human- ity. Just what form this work should take was not revealed, but I decided on mission work and have been engaged in it ever since. “My duties in that line caused me ‘to visit the penitentiary at Chester, IN. “T found this great field almost neglected. I heeded the Master’s injunction, ‘Go ye into the byways and hedges,’ and decided to make a specialty of this work. “The results have more than repaid my efforts. ‘It is no uncommon thing while holding services inside of prison walls to see hun- dreds of hardened men weep, and when asking for a response from those who de& sire to lead better lives, to see hundreds of hands raised as a request for prayer. ‘‘What the convict needs to-day, I belleve, is the influence of charity and the touch of a loving hand. I feel with the poet: ** ‘Down in the human heart, Crushed by the tempter, Feelings lie buried that grace can restore, Touched by a loving heart, Wakened by kindness, Chords that were broken may vibrate once more.’ “My recent marriage to Mr. Haines was contracted not only through affection, but because I felt it would be helpful to me to have somebody who.was equally interested in my work to assist me. “We became acquainted In the course of our work among prisoners and agreed that after marriage we would continue our labors with redoubled zeal “Mr. Haines sings well and ie also a good talker, and most of our work is now done together. ‘We endeavor to furnish entertamment and instruction for the prisoners by 4's- tributing books and papers of all kinds among them, and we took more than 100 with us on our last visit to Chester. ‘T have found that my experience as a married woman gives me more privileges and is a material aid to my work. “I go to Chester every two weeks, I leave St. Louls Friday night, which puts me there In plenty of time to begin work Faturday morning. “The first thing I do is to visit the South- ern Penitentiary Hoespttal, where I hold a song service and conduct religions exer- cises, which usually consist of prayer ani a short sermon. “This programme occupies my time from 9 until 11 o'clock iu the morning. “A pathetic scene was enacted during my last visit to Chester. Two of the prisoners were dying. By the bedside of one of them sat his sister. By a rare circumstance, her husband, also a prisoner, was in the hos- pital. “He was permitted to join his wife and her brother. While Mr. Haines and I sang ‘Nearer, My God, to Thee,’ the hearts of the mourners were rent with anguish, and the soul of the dying convict went forth, I hope, in peace. “At 9 o'clock Sunday morning I go to the penitentiary and commence work in the chapel. I play a@ march and al the prison- ers who care to attend--and they are in the majority—file in in regular order ‘The meeting is opened with prayer, and after that we sing four hymne. Then I deliver my sermon, “Dinner is served to the 900 prisoners at ll o'clock. “The entire afternoon untill 6 o'clock we “My greatest sorrow, every time I leave, is that I am not able to talk with more than 200 of them during any one visit. Te do more would be physically impossible, “We have a choir of 3% members and an orchestra of eight—all prisoners, remember —and {t is both surprising and gratifying te eee the pleasure these men take in music. “My favorite hymn its: ‘I Will Sing the Wondrous Story,’ and they always make it a@ point to sing that first, because they know it pleases me, “In all of my experience I have never met with a rebuff, and I have never found difficulty in persuading even the surifest and most hardened to Hsten to me, what- ever the effect of our conversation may have been. “During my last visit to Chester @ con- victs who had been converted were baptized, They are not invited to join any particular church. they are free to follow their own inclina- tions as soon as they are liberated, “The pleasantest experience I believe I ever had took plac several months ago. “A most defiant and unruly prisoner, who had been confined ten years for embezsie- ment, had been touched by what, to me, wag @ simple act, and yet which to him wag the turning point of hia life, “He had been shut in the dungeon—a come mon experience with him—for some infrac- tion of the prison rules, and his heart seemed hardened against everybody, “‘When she was released he found a small package lying on the floor of his cell. “He opened it and discovered it te be a song book which I had left for him, with two hymns marked, ‘Let a Little Sun- shine In,’ and ‘Though Your Bins Be as Scarlet.’ “This little kindness seemed to touch a spot in his h which had been long neg- lected, and that moment he resolved, as he afterw told me, to obey the prison rules, cause more trouble and give heart to God. And, as far as I have occasion to observe, he has carried out resolution faithfully. “I encounter some cases so path they almost crush me when I think of the great responsibility I have upon me in try- ing to lead these poor men and women into better ways and to foster and encourage their new-born hopes and ambitions. “One old man sat In his cell the other morning reading a letter. It was from his daughter. “His eged head was bowed with shame and remorse. This child, the pride of his heart, had written to tell him that though the world scoffed at her, she believed him Suiltless, and that she would stand by him to the last, though mother, * brother, and friend might desert him. He handed me the letter to read. I finished it, handed !t back amd passed on. “I felt that his grief was too great for utterancé and too sacred for comment, “The picture of that poor old man, broken in health and spirits, standing there, leaning his gray head against the iron bars of his cell, with the tears stream- ing down his aged cheeks, will always re- main with me as the most pathetic of all my experiences. “I am frequently called to the bedside of a dying woman, who requests me, when her son's term is up, to meet him and give . him advice for the future, for she knows that she will be dead, and that I am the one most Ikely to take her place. “Buch ts one of the great responsibilities of my mission. “When men are turned loosé from the penitentiary their hearts are filled with ap- prehensions for the future. They belfeve — that the worldd looks upon them with fear and distrust, and that every man's hand ig againet them. . “They go from place to place seeking: employment, and when the question is asked, ‘Where did you work before?’ they must either reveal their past or tell a false- hood, “Many of them have no home and no friends. When a convict is discharged he has a sult of cheap clothes, a sult of rough underwear, a ticket to his destination and $10 In cash. “Bick at heart and discouraged after long imprisonment, he wanders around, homeless and friendiess, with nothing more friendly, perhaps, than a policeman’s stern ‘Move ont “Is it any wonder that turns to crime? “Now, we want to establish a home where convicts may come after being discharged; where they can obtain temporary employ- ment until they are able to establish a credit for beng sincere and deserving, “My idea is to get a building that will cost about $20,000.

A deiver in ancient legislative lore made the discovery that such a law had been slumbering-on the ordinance books for these many years, The good ladies will endeavor to have it revived and put into effect. The present curfew epidemic broke out about four years ago. It i spontaneous origin in Kansas, the general breeding spot ef everything unusual in legislation. In some town out there in the middle of a prairie an ordinance was passed requiring all children under 16 years to be in their homes at 9 o'clock p. m. It might have spread no further, but somebody who had been attending school exhibitions called it the curfew law. The name caught on, It Waa the gérm which carried the tnfection. Last week State Superintendent of Pub- lic Inaetruction Skinner of New York pub- licly advocated a curfew law in that State. There is great: difference of opinion with reference to the expediency or wisdom of the law. Those Who oppose it argue that it js an infringement of personal liberty or at least an unwarranted Interference wit. the rights of parents to control their own “iidren. Those who favor it contend that ie a neccessary safeguard to the mora! ' being of the young. police power has seldom if ever been 4 to in enforcement of curfew - hy. Ge MEE, eS nance fixing the evening hour at which children must be off of the streets and pro- viding adequate penalties. Spokane, Wash., has had such an ordl- nance s'nee Oct. 16, 1894. I prohibited children under M4 years of age to be abroad after &8 p. m. from October to April, or after 9 o'clock from April to October, un- less accompanied by a parent or other male adult or unless pursuing an errand “with due diligence.” After being once warned both the child and the person having the care and cus- tody of it might be fined not to exceed © and imprisoned until the fine was paid. Feb. 15 of this year the I4-year Iim!t was raised to 14. A. G. Avery, Corporation Counsel of Spokane ,writes ‘to the Sunday Post-Dis- patch: The effect of the curfew ordinance tin. this city is not easy to state, Its enforcement has not been found necessary to any extent, and, for that Teason, 1 dare say its observation has been, to a slight degree, neglected. The caption of the ordinance in effect at Stillwater, Minn., reflects rather severely on the youth of that place: An ordinance te prevent riots, nolse, din- turbance and disorderly assemblages in the city of Stillwater, or any disorderly conduct ta public places, and to provide for the arrest and pupishment of any person or persons guilty of the same. It is made unlawful for any boy or g‘rl under 16 years of age to be abroad between — and quiet of the city.” For the first offense arrest may be made by a policeman or a citizen without pro- child taken and delivered into guardian or employer. Upon any subsequent arrest by policeman or citizen the culprit is taken before the municipal court and punished by a fine not exceeding $10 or by imprisonment not ex- ceed'ng 10 days. The signa! for disappearing is nine slow taps on the city fire bell. The ordinance was approved Feb, 8, 1896. City Attorney F. V. Comfort naively says the enforcement of this ordinance has been very beneficial. He writes: While. we have had very few, if any, causes to prosecute under it, yet it has a healthy tend- ency in keeping children off the streets after night, and has especially cleared them out of the business portion of the city and from around public buildings where they were in the bhabi¢ of congregating and loafing at unseasonable hours. We have never had occasion to test the validity of the ordinance for the reason, per- haps, more than any other, that the citizens generally consider it a good thipg and render it hearty co-operation. An ordinance passed by the Counci] of Kansae City, Kan., June 2, 18%, makes it Unlawful for any minor under the age of 15 years to loiter, ramble, play or frequent the cess and he the hands of parents, mane Society, is heartily in favor of the curfew law. “It is a good thing,’ shé sald, “and I would iike to see it generally adopted and enforced. I am certain it would re- sult in better ¢hildren and better young men. I don't know that the ex- pediency of having such a law in St. Louls has been discussed, but it would be just as wise and beneficial to keep children off of the streets at unreasonable hours as anywhere else.’’ each year, unless accompanied by a person having legal custody, or in the performance of anu errand or duty, or whose employment makes it necessary to be upon the streets. A fine of $25 may be inflicted on both the child and its lega] custodian. City Attorney T. A. Pollock writes warmly in commendation of it. He says: This ordinance has been generally enforced and observed in this city since its passage, and the beneficial effect dpon the children of this city, from its enforcement, is beyond ques- tion, In fact, 1 am unable to see bow anything but benefit can reaylt from this ordinance, of that there can be any question whatever as to its wisdom. The ordinance {n effect In Topeka, Kan., since August 17, 1896, is almost identical sidewalks, streets, alleys or public places of with the Kansas City ordinance. The 9 the city after 9 p. m. between March 1 and ¢ Umit is 16 years and the winter schedpie August 31 of each year, and after 8 p. m. from September 1 * + the last day of February of does not go inte affect antl] the end of § City Attorney W. A. 8S. Bird has fur- nished copies of the ordinance to a large number of cities, some of them as far Hast as New York and Delaware. He thinks it is a good thing. Writing of it he says: This ordinance, since it went into effect, has practically enforced itself, as IT do not now re- member of one arrest having been made under it; and I believe it has had an excellent effect upon the young people in this city. I do not believe it would be possible to repeal it. The ordinance passed at Manhattan, Kan., Dec. 15, 1996, was modeled after the two preceding ones. It fixes the age at 14 years. The hours are the same and the schedules change on October 1. The fine is ndt less than $1; not more than $6. Acting City Attorney Sam Kimble writes that the ordinance is not at all enforced. He telis why: After its passage it orcension@d eome little excitement among the bors and it was expected to be vigorously enforced. The city arranged with the Electric Light Co. to sound curfew by means of a large steam whistle, which proved in its operation a nuisance and became q at once the subject of serious complaiat from residents In the vicinity. The whistle used was one of those large devices giving forth an ubearthiy shriek that caused many complaints them after the novelty wears off. While the object of the ordinance is unquestionably a laudable one, there is a feeling In the minds of a great many people that such enactments are to some extent an infringement of personal privilege and even atnong those who advocated the enforcement of the ordinance, we have found that when it chanced to be applied to their own children, there was an immediate objection. Anyhow, the interest of the peo- ple generally in the enforcement of such ordi- nances is not sufficiently fixed and permanent to cause thelr continued enforcement. The experience of this city bas unquestion- ably indicated that if such ordinances are to be applied and enforced, some means for an- nouncing curfew signal must be employed which will pot in iteelf become objectionable to the residents. It bas beep suggested bere that the curfew be sounded by a bell, bet that suggee- tion is opposed by some as being uncertain, there being so many bells fn the city om the various churches, school bolldings, efc.. as to justify a doubt of the identity of the signal. There are so many difficulties surroending the enforcement of such legislation that upon the whole I am inclined to think no very great benefit ordinarily resulta from it, the proper management of children in the majority ef In- stances, and especially io the eamaller cities, being more properly left te the parental control $25. Regarding it City Attorney N. © Avery | writes: a This ordinance bas been in force here fee | something over two years, and while t¢ te probably not very strictly enforced, 1 believe @ | quite effective ia keeping an unruly class og the streets at sight, During the summer of 1938 the of Warrensburg, Mo., passed a curfew nance.

AYER How Various Obstacles to Beauty May Be Successfully Met and Overcome. HER REPLIES TO MANY QUERIES. Harriet Hubbard Ayer, Recognized Authority of the East, Tells Beauty Seekers What to Do. AM afflicted with Dlackheads and pimples, and have been neing Blank’s soap for over six months, but it does not seem to do any good, If vou write me a formula, how long should I use it, and should I nse the soap while I am using your treatment? Please give me y% formula that will be beneficial. Can it be filled at any drug store? Ww. KB. &. The only real cure I know of for black- heads is the use of the camel's hair face scrubbing brush with warm water and a soap. Use the camel’s-hair Immerse pure hygienie serubbing brush every night. the brush in warm water, rub the soap on it until you get a good lather, scrub the face for a moment or. two, rinse thoroughly with clear warm water, then apply a good cold cream or skin food. All this should be done at night, just before eon to bed. If you have the correct brush it may make the face a little tender for a day or two, but not longer. If the blackheads are obstinate put a small bit of washing soda in the scrubbing water. The first effect of this treatment is to make the blackheads more conspicuous than hefore, because they are brought to the surface. Recollect that these skin blemishes are merely a collection of dust and olly secretions, and that the thor- ough cleansing of the clogged pores is the only way of getting rid of the blemishes and establishing a good skjn circulation, LEASE tell me what to use for my hands to remedy excessive perspiration. When clos- ing my hands for a few seconds they be- come very moist. It is almost impossible for me to wear kid gloves. EKDNA EARLE. Cologne water, 70 grams; tincture of bel# ladona, 15 grams; moisten the bands with a very little of the mixture several times a day if necessary. There is always some internal cause for this excessive perspira- tion. No external application will do more than paliliate. ILI. you kindly advise some treatment for enlarged pores, the result of getting rid of flesh worms? My face is smooth and clear, except in some places, where three or four pores have enlarged. It makes my face look bad. Cc. a a It takes a lone time to cure enlarged pores, and the only way I know of is by the use of the scrubbing brush and a pure hygienic soap. Ky this process the pores which have become enlarged by the clogge od Becretions, are Kept free and gradually they will contract and bécome normal in size, I know -of thousands of cures effected in this manner. ILL you kinfily repeat the recipe for the \ face bleadh that you mentioned Iast week’? Kitdly tell me what food one ould eat in order to have a elear complexion. mid you advise one to use the face mask that so extensively advertised ? READER, wmoride of mercury, in coarse powder, 10 grains, distilled water, one pint. Agitate the two together until a complete solu tion ts obtained. Then add one-half ounce of glycerine. Apply with a emall sponge as often as agreeable. This is not strong enough to blister and skin the face in aver- age Cast ey It may be increased or reduced in strength by adding to or taking from the amount of bichloride of mercury. Doe not forret that this last ingredient is a powerful poison and should be Kept out of reach of children and ignorant persons. You ehould avoid all greasy and stimu- lating food. Take plenty of exercise in the open air and sleep in a_ well-ventilated room. Ido not advise the use of the face mask. I have tried it with a number of my patienets, and in every case it has failed to improve the skin. AM very much interested in the beauty hints you give through the columns of the Post- Dispaten, so much go that I look for them the first thing Sunday morning. Will you kindly give a formula for ,removing superfiuous hair? Could I bave a druggist compound same for me? ABBA, The only way of positively destroying su- perfluous hair is by electrolysis. This oper- ation is painful, expensive and, unfortun- ately, has to be repeated many times be- fore all of the hair roots are exterminat- ed. There are thousands of so-called depil- atories upon the market. These prepara- tions are composed usually of sulphate of arsenic or caustic lime, and merely burn dhe hair off to the surface of the skin, They ‘onvjliy..dvertised as preparations that naneitir eridigate superfluous io not hesitate to &"¥~that they ym this service.

There is a chain of botanical gardens reaching around the globe, and there is a constant interchange of ideas and com- modities between the directors. Thus it is that each day witnesses the arrival of some recruit to the flower world. Last week seeds were received from Naples, Italy; Berne, Switzerland: Edinburgh, Scotland; Chris- tlana, Norway; Odessa, Russia, and from China, Japan and South Africa. Even the botanical garden at Vallencta, pain, contributed her quota to the famous Louis beauty spot. “These contributions,” explained Head Gardener James Gurney, ‘“‘are mostly in seeds. and many of them result in noth- ing.

MADAME GADSKI’S PLAIN WORDS. Foreign Study Is Necessary toa Finished Musical Education and Both Time and Patience Are Required. UST a little practical advice to-day—ts8 that it, my child? You have asked me — a great many questions since we starte ed our music talks, Suppose we now cone sider a few of your difficulties, First of all, about this subject of foreign? study. You will remember that I have al- Ways advocated studying with the best teachers to be found at home.’ I am loat® to advise a girl to leave her home any sooner than necessity compels her to dp so. Howe =| ever, if @ public career has been decided 7 upon, the first thing to be learned is the sacrifice of natural inclinations on the alta® of art. A woman in any public office is not in her natural ephere. Forgive my say!rs” so. It is quite necessary for the good of the, world that exceptions should be made to most excellent rules. The cause of art-—-th@ ” vid pleasure of the many is advanced. The de#-. tiny of the woman ts perverted. In shors she is a freak. Good bless the freake! Life would be a pretty humdrum affair without them. But—and here is the point of my argument —bear in mind from the outset that the wo- man who has chosen a public iife myst be prepared to sacrifice everything to her pro- fession. She must not expect the ordinary conditions of the natural woman. The d's ciple of art must consider her mistres® first, her individuality last. So, then, if the surroundings of home life are not conducive to advancefhent in your profession, the home must be sacrificed, It. sounds harsh, I know, Sut nothing can b* accomplished without singleness of purpose, and your one aim must be to develop your talent and make the world richer by your” perfected art. One very sordid but {mportant fact must be borne in mind, however. A musical education in Europe requires a long bank account. It is utmost folly for an American girl to expect to study satisfactorily abroad Bf 4 with an insufficient supply of money. It is no economy to go to a poor teacher even if his prices are low. Then, again, the cost of living for thé foreigner ia not so small ag many persons imagine it to be. The student must live comfortably, If she economizes in this re- #pect her voice will suffer. Before leaving America be sure of an adequate financial provision for the entiré time that you expect to study in Europe. Count on something more than $1000 @ year for your expenses. However, do not be die< couraged at the outset by the consideration of expense. If it is right for you to £0, bend every effort toward securing the means to do so. If your voice ia really worth the cultivation there will be found friends whe will consider the advancement of the coe et sary funds a very safe investment for —_ money, which you will repay with interest later on. Naturally, though, ft fa better if possible to incur no debts or obligations at the beginning. Another thing. Don't @ecide on a year’s study abroad under the impression that ig will be sufficient to complete your train- ing. A teacher, perhaps, can get potnts in @ comparatively short time which will aid he? in her work, but a student cannot obtain enough good in a year to justify the ex- pense. Preliminary training is, of course, a matter of years. Dramatic work can scarcely be touched upon in so short a pe- riod as one year. The advantages of foreign study are most apparent. Aside from the consideration of the musical atmosphere to be found in most of the large capitals of Europe, and the greatly increased facility for the study of languages, the mere fact that the American girl can do nothing but devote herself to her studies without the strife for recognition, either as teacher or singer, which she would be sure to encounter at home, is in itself an incentive to good work. You came to me in tears after one of your public appearances. Some “brute of » critic,”’ you said, had written unkind things about you. Foolish child! If what the critic said were true, you should thank him on bended knees, We ere often blind tg our faults, and a timely word of warning, earnestly heeded, may do us Incalculabig good, Supposing, on the other hand, that the critic was mistaken or unjust In what he said. That sometimes happens, my child, Why, then, silly one, are you not wasting your tears and emotions? Why pay any at. tention io false sentiments? If you know your critic to be wrong the matter shoulg simply amuse you. Use your common sense, my girl. Keep ag even in disposition as possible. A singer should always be good natured. Don’t laugh. Singers are not always what they should be, unfortunately; but does not experience teach you that on the whole they are a phiic. sophic lot? Live intelligently, which meang live moderately. Eat plenty of simple, nourishing food, but never overeat, Avoid the excessive use op stimulants. Sleep and rest sufficientiy to repair the waste of tissue, which means don't jet your. seif get tired.

The scheme was a failure, and he lost some $2000, and the couple had then but little money left.

Neither husband nor wife would consider writing for funds from Eastern relatives and friends. The little wife could not leave at the ranch ‘houses. her husband, bedridden with frightful hem- orrhages, to seek employment by which to provide for the family. For days she sat at her husband's bedside thinking, as hard as anyone ever did. One day when the husband was once more convalescent, Mrs, Erving heard some one tell of a.tract of Government land, where one might pre-empt a claim which would prove valuable. Moreover it was a very favorable locality, in its freedom from fogs and valley dews, for invalids with lung ‘diseases. It was five miles north from the village of Cucamonga in San Bernardino County, ‘I’m going cut to Cucamonga to-morrow,” said Mrs. Erving a few evenings later to the woman who ran the lodging houge where the Ervings lived in Los Angeles. “TIT want you to stay with my husband and the baby. Let me know at once if anything happens here, and my aid is needed. [I may stay out in the country a week or two, Something must be done here soon, and I'm going to do it.” She was up before daylight the next morning, busy preparing food for her sick husbang and her child for days in ad- vance. “Yes, Henry,” said she, “I'm going out in the country to find a ‘high, dry and sunny locality for a home for all of us. be gone several] days.”’ In vain her husband pillow that she was undertaking too much, and that he was not worth her constant care and such geal. “O, I’ve got a scheme for the cosiest and most unique homie in Southern Califor- nia,” said she, “and I can’t rest until I accomplish it. I just want to show you what I can do,” With a hug and a kiss for both husband and child, while there was a choking down of a great hard lump in her throat and re- pression of tears, the petite lady whis ked out of the room and ran down the stairs with®a valise in her hands. It was still in early morning. The ride on the railroad ocoupied almost two hours. of the community had scarcely finished breakfast, when Mrs. Erving landed there that day.

Then if he passes another rigid examination he is given a commission. The practice still prevails in European countries to place the sons of infiuential parents on board ships and after a few years’ service give them rank as officers. These meh do not have the severe four years’ course that is compulsory at the United States naval college. Therefore, it is universally believed that American naval officers are the most efficient of any in the world. Commissioned officers are at present di- vided by an arbitrary line into two classes— line and staff—a line that it is sought to remove. The line. attend to the sailing duties, the maneuveriing and the fighting of the ship. They are captains, command- ers, lieutenant commanders, leutenants, lieutenants junior grade, ensigns and naval cadets, On the staff are: Chief engineer, Neuten- ant of marines and paymaster. Ana ths calls for a reference to what might be thought an error—that only graduates vf Annapolis can be officers in the navy. This applies to members of the fighting and sailing force. Complimentary rank is given tu two classes of men who do not have to serve at the naval college—surgeons and paymasters. Their rank depends upon their years of service and the size of the ship to which they are appointed. The chief engineer was formerly in this class, but to-day he, as well as the line officers, must be a graduate of the college, The eelection of line and staff is made during the last year at Annapolis. The wishes of the cadets are considered and abso their adaptibility. Half of each class is transferred to the line and half to the staff, the latter for duty as engineers and as officers of the marine corps.

That was a very busy day for young Mrs. Erving. It was also a day of remarkable experiences for her, She hired a horse and buggy, and engaged a man to take her to view the land claim. In a few hours she had made formal entry upon the quarter- section among the foothills. Then she inter- viewed the village carpenters, made terms with one of them for his labor, and she figured with the village lumber merchant for a lot of ‘his wares. Before night there was a pile of scantlings and pine boards on the claim pre-empted that same day. The next morning the building of the Erv- ing home was begun. The Cucamonga people tell with much gusto how bravely the pretty little blonde Mrs. Erving went to work about the build- ing of her frame house. They are all proud of her. She was up at dawn that first morning ‘the building began, and, mounted high on a load of boards and laths, she rode off to the foothills with her carpenter employe. Before 8 o'clock, she had marked out upon the plateau at the foot of the mountains, the location and shape of her new home, and had started the carfienter at work there. Going back to Cucamonga for another load of lumber, she bought a pair of blue jeans overalls, a blouse, leather mittens, and a felt sombrero, all of which she put on at her room, and then staried a.second time for the foothills, behind the carpenter’s mules and on ‘the big lumber wagon, transporting more housebuilding material. At noon she and the carpenter ate from their tin pails on a pile of lumber, and then both returned to work, he to build- ing and Mrs. Erving to hauling lumber from the village. All the boards, timbers, shingies and other building material neces- sary had been hauled to the site of the structure by the evening of the next day by the young woman, The following day, she took the piace of a carpenter’s neipcr. She aided at carrying timbers and heid boards in place while they were nailed, She helped at sawing boards, under the di!- rection of the old rural builder, and she did the odds and ends about the work of putting up the cheapest possible two-story frame house. Each mornir® for three weeks she rode out to the building with the carpenter, each noon they ate their lunch- eons gn adjoining saw horses, and at early evening they drove home to Cucamonga in the rattling and thumping big lumber wagon, Every evening, after tea, Mrs, Erving wrote her husband in Los Angeles words of cheer, and a full description of how the house was going up and the de- licious climate the invalid would find there a little later. It ought to be said that she had news that he was better and was able to be up. When the roof of the house came to be shingled Mrs. Erving had become handy with a carpenter's hammer, and along with the old man as a tutor, she went up On the roof and worked ful] time every day. When the shingling was finished, and while the carpenter was busy for several days with putting in window and door casings and performing some more particular work about the structure, Mrs. Erving put two coats of heavy paint all over the roof, hauled a wagonload of brick from BDth da Station, mixed mortar and built a ymall chimney 14 feet high In one corner ¢f the structure. To be sure, the chimney qm not the most symmetrical and evenly laio fam- ple of brick work in Southern Calijgrnia, but it is well built, etrong and serviqable, Here and there may be a slight devwation from a perpendicular line, but not ony per- son in five would notice it, and it alg wers its purpose just as well. No funds were available for a building not absolutely nec- essary, so the plastering of the hougy was dispensed with as a luxury in the gsemi- tropic land, and only the cheapest wory was done on the partitions and floors. The whole affair cost $400 and not a cent was wasted. Three weeks and four days from the Mrs, Erving arrived at Cucamonga home was ready for occupancy. Mra. Ere ving went to Los Angeles and helped her husband to pack up their household effects, and after purchases of furniture, cooking utensils, bedding, provisions, etc., the fame ily started for their new residence, ; “IT can never tell the curiosity that pose- gessed me from the time my wife told me about her building operations until I got here,” said Mr. Erving in speaking of his going to Cucamonga, “‘to see what sort of & structure my wife and her carpenter friend had put up. It’s grand, elegant and just like my little wife, i¢ all I can say. Believe me or not, I wouldn't trade this place for any | home I ever knew.

ORGANIZATION, CLASSES, VARIETIES OF DUTY, GRADES OF PAY, TRADITIONAL RULES AND AMENITIES. Written for the Sunday Post-Dispatch by C. H. Wetmore, author of “A Famous Sea Fight,” printed in It will be noticed there are no ranks of Admigal or Vice-Admiral in the American Navy. So there are no Generals or Lieu- tenant-Generals in the army. The highest rank jn the navy is that of Rear Admiral; in the army, Major General. Congress is jealous of its right to bestow the highest ranks, and the positions held by Farragut and Grant must be won by active service. The word “Captain” is frequently misun- derstood by those not familiar with naval] parlance. The rank of Captain is next to that of Commodore, yet the prefix *“Cap- tain’’ may be placed before the name of a Lieutenant or even an Ensign, should he be detailed to command a ship. Frequently officers of junior grade command gunboats, torpedo, boats and in case of emergency larger craft. They are always addressed as “Captain,” although they retain the rank accredited them in the naval list. The words “Admiral,” “Commodore,” “Oaptain’’ and “‘Doctor’’ are the only ones used on shipboard as prefixes to names. Commander Smith is called “Capt.’’ Smith. Lieutenant Smith is never given his title in addressing him verbally. He is always designated r. Smith. So it is with ensigns, naval cadets, the lieutenants of marines and the chief engineers. The pay- master is accosted familiarly by his as- gociates as “Pay,” but is addressed for- mally as “Mr.” It is bad form to say: ‘TAeut. Jenkins, good morning,” and only a land lubber would do it. A Lieutenant in the navy ranks above a Lieutenant in the army. The relative ranks of the two branches is as follows: NAVY. ARMY. Rear Admiral. Major-General. Commodore, Brigadier-General, Captain. Colonel, Commander. Lieutenant Colonel, Lieutenant Commander, Major. Lieutenant. Captain. Kansign. Lieutenant. ON BOARD SHIP. No monarch is more exclusive than the captain of & man-of-war. Navy regula- tions provide for this In a ‘itasure: tom has added force. ‘‘The king can do no wrong; neither can the captain’of a war- ship in the eyes of his subordinates. The y cannot question an order, nor offer a sug- gestion, unless he requests it. With all this power comes a loneliness that is depressing. Monarchs have cour- tiers in constant attendance; commanders of warships have no one save the orderly who stands at salute outside his door and the obsequious steward, who lays the cloth and waits on him at table. Commissioned officers mess together itn CuUsS=- the Century Magazine for April. the wardroom, and a merry crowd they are; the captain eats in state alone in his cabin. Occasionally, while at sea, he re- quests one or more officers to dine with him and of an evening he may invite one or more to play cards, but no officer would think of dropping into the cabin for a friendiy chat, nor can an officer reciprocate the attention by inviting the captain to a function in the wardroom, a place he is not supposed to enter except on a visit of in- spection. This exclusiveness is carried beyond the cabin to the deck. There is an imaginary line, cxtending from the stern of the ship to the mainmast, parallel with the keel. To the right of this line—that is, the star- board side—is the Captain's territory; to the left—port side—is the space for the commissioned officers below the Captain's rank. Across this imaginary line comenis- sioned officers are not supposed to step to starboard unless business calls them, or they are summoned by the Captain. ‘The fatter may walk over to the port side and chat with his officers, but he seldom doés BO. This observance of etiquette is specially noticeable when the officers gather on deck after dinner to smoke an evening cigar or pipe. They congregate on the port side and talk together, while the Captain paces up and down the planking to starboard, all alone in his glory. And in the same manner the non-commis- sioned officers and geamen cannot step aft further than the mainmast unless ordered there on duty. If a seaman has complaint to make to the “‘old man” he steps to. the Mainmast and salutes. The officer of the ideck asks what he wishes. The message is repeated to the captain, and if the mat- ter be weighty enough he steps forward to the mainmast and lstens, Junior lieutenants and ensigns, who have Dasse -d the required examination, are termed “etch anG divimon cificers.” They stand Watch and watch both in port and at sea. In port they are called officers of the deck; at sea, watch officers; and while doing this duty are responsible directly to the captain. In port when any officer leaves the ship he must approach the officer of the deck, saiute and inquire: “Permission to leave the ship, sir?’ On returning he saye: “Returned on board. air.” Thus even a Heutenant-com- mander hes to secure permission from an ie providing he be officer of the deck. le Sam provides a naval officer noth- ai at ae + a bunk, a bair mattress, a dressexz and a long table iy the ward room, The officer has to buy his pillows, pillow slips, sheets, blankets, towels, soap, etc. All the non-commissioned officers club together and purchase their chinaware and silver. They elect a caterer of the mess and one of the wine mess. The former buys all the food and the latter all the liquors and cigars. For the food the men are as- sessed pro rata. Luxuries are paid for as ordered. The Government furnishes a cook and wardroom stewards. Every. man in the navy, from Rear Ad- miral to oiler, is granted 21 cents a day for rations. Théy can commute this and secure money from the paymaster or pur- chase ships stores through this individual. The steerage mess is for officers who rank below those in the wardroom, In the steerage are found ensigns who are not watch and division officers, naval cadets, assistant engineers, assistant surgeons and paymasters’s clerk. Then there is the petty officers’ mess and finally the seamen’s megs. Every morning at 9 o'clock, while at sea, quarters are sounded. Then every man of the fighting force on board responds, except such as are excused by the surgeon. The navigator takes the bridge, relleving the officer of the deck. Each officer reports to the executive the condition of his sta- tion and drill then eommences. From senior watch down to and including the ensigns, each officer has command of a gun's crew and his men are exercised at the pieces. Meanwhile the lHeutenant of marines is drilling his command at smal! arm practice. The first Sunday in the month all hands gather aft, in full dress uniform, and lis- ten to the articles of war, which are read by the Captain. MARINBS.

It is a curious little community with a curious history. It is situated on the city dump at the foot of Brook street on the Ohio River bank. It was founded on the day after the great tornado which destroyed so many lives and wrecked so much prop- erty tn Louisville in 1891. Bolivar Buckner, @ one-armed negro, walked along Brook street to the city dump and saw that a large number of tin roofs had been de- posited near the dump by the tornado. He was without a home and, as roofs would TINTOWN, BUILT OF ROOFS GATHERED BY A TORNADO, et MAT BE DESTROYED BY AN OHIO FLOOD. make good building material, he concluded to build him one. He secured a portion of a tin roof, and in a few hours the first house of ‘Tintown had _ . w»been erected. The only tools that were used by the builder were a can-opener, a hatchet ‘The tin and the timber were The stove pipe * and a shovel. not pierced by a single nail. was made of oyster cans, Other negroes saw Bucknér’s house. They, too, decided to build homes of tin, and, in a few days, Tintown had a hundred houses and over 6§$=0 Inhabitants. Streets were made and a thoroughfare, called Ashbarrel avenue, became the pride of the community. Three years ago Tintown residents deter- mined to build a church. As all their houses were built of tin, they decided that the church must also be built of tin. The tin roofs which the tornado had cast into their way were exhausted, and for a time they did not know where they would get the ma- terlal for their church. But Bolivar Buckner suggested that oyster cans be used, and his idea was received with approval, Louisville alleys were searched carefully for the cans, and after several months of hard work enough were secured to build the church. It was a unique structure when it was fin- ished and was visited by many white peo- ple. A large barrel was used as its pulpit, and services were held there every Sunday. After they had built their church the in- habitants of Tintown decided to organize * ‘2.3 as a municipal body. Bolivar Bur as thy founder of the place, was elect yor. He settled all the disputes and quarrels of hig fellow townsmen, and a case never went te the city court from Tintown. Mayor Bucke ner always administered justice although he did not have a great regard for the forme of the law. Tintown also had a fire de~ partment. A marshal served without He separated combatants and forced husbands to go to work and help np ay their wives, who toiled at the washtub, _ Tintown folks took life easy, working; gaming or idling, as they wished, and the troubles of the world did not rest heavily on their minds.

Mr. Rabbit Has Something to Say About the ~Moon, During Which He Explains the Spot on It. HIS is the story that Mr. Rabbit told a Mr. ’Coon and Mr. ’Possum when they sat together on the edge of the world and hung their feet over and looked at the moon, Mr. Rabbit, you know, was visiting the other two, who lived with Mr. Crow in hollow limbs— one limb for each. Mr. Crow was out tak- ing supper with Mr. Dog that night, so the ‘Coon and the ’Possum had brought their company out for a long walk. After Mr. ’Possum had finished his story, the Rabbit leaned back and swung his feet over the Big Nowhere awhile, thinking. Then he began. Mr. Rabbit's Story of the Moon. ‘Well,’ he said, ‘“‘my folks used to live in the moon.” “Humph!”’ “Nonsense!”’ said the ’Possum. “Yes,” said the Rabbit, ‘‘they did. The moon is a world, away over on the other side of the Big Nowhere, and it doesn’t stand still and stay top side up like this world, but keeps moving about and turning over, so that you have to look sharp and hang on tight to keep from falling off when it's bottom side up, or standing on its edge as it is to-night. My folks used to live said the ’Coon., there and Mr. Dog’s folks used to live there, too. That was long time ago, before Mr. Dog ever went to live with Mr. Man, and he was big and savage and had no more man- ners than he has now. **‘My folks never could and never did get along with Mr. Dog’s folks worth a cent, but they could mostly beat Mr. Dog’s folks running, so they didn’t have to associate with him unless they wanted to. “Of course Mr. Dog’s family didn’t like “USED TO HIDE AND WATCH FOR US.” that, for they thought they were just as good as we were, and they used to hide and watch for us, and when we came by jump out and try to keep up with us for as much as two or three miles sometimes, just as Mr. Dog tried to keep up with me the other day, which you may remember.”’ The ’Possum and ’Coon grinned to them- selves and nodded, ‘‘Well,’’ continued Mr. Rabbit, “there are some laws of etiquette— which means politeness—up there in the Moon, and they are very strict. The Old Man in the Moon makes these laws, and when one of them is broken he makes the one that breaks it just go right on doing whatever it is for nine hundred and ninety- nine years, and sometimes a good deal longer when it’s a worse break than usual. *“‘Now the very strictest of all these laws used to be the one about Mr. Dog trying to keep up with our folks. It was called the ‘Brush Pile law.’ It didn’t say that he couldn’t keep up with us if he was able, but it did say that when we ran behind a brush pile, as we did sometimes he must follow ie JUS Te ani “MY TWENTY-FIRST GREAT-GRAND- FATHER COULDN’T RUN VERY PAST.” around the brush pile and never jump over it, no matter What happened. This was a hard law for Mr. Dog to keep, for he was mostly fat and excttable and my folks would run around and around a brush pile, as much as a hundred times .very often, and tire Mr. Dog so that he couldn’t move. Then my folks would laugh and go home leisurely, while Mr. Dog would sneak off with his tongue hanging out till it dragged on the ground, “Well, one day in the spring, when my family was out for an airitig and a little sunshine, they got a good ways from home, and all of a sudden there comes Mr. Dog and his whole famfly, too. My folks didn’t want anything to do with them, and set out for home in several] directions, with Mr. Dog’s family following most all of them. My twenty-first great-great grmnd- father was getting pretty old and couldn't run very fast, and there was a young, anxious-looking dog named Leap quite close behind him.

The dog family kept on running till they got to Mr. Man's house, and there they hid and stayed. “And since that day,’ concluded Mr. Rab- bit, “there have never been any of our fam- ily in the moon, and Leap is the only dog there.

A Boy Engaged in a Doubtful Undertak- ing Hears Something That Places Him in an Unpleasant Position. was the custom 20 years ago for farm boys to begin several weeks before Eas- ter and take from the hens’ nests one or two eggs each day without the knowledge of their parents. These eggs were hidden in a safe place in the haymow, and on Eas- ter morning after breakfast the boys of each neighborhood gathered together with their booty and there was a grand egg roast and feast in the woods. Fathers, remem- bering their own boyhood, often condoned the practice, and mothers, too, sometimes, but in the case of Jerry Brown's parents, who had come not long before from a fru- gal district in New Hampshire, there had been a strict order issued against any- thing of the sort. Jerry had a number of friends who were “hiding eges,’’ and who told him each day at school just how many they had. They told him, also, of the great joy that at- tended the secret gathering and feast in the woods on Easter forenoon, and every night when Jerry collected the beautiful fresh eggs from the mangers and barrels and dark corners of the barn he was tempted sorely. They had a great many chickens —more than any one in the neighborhood gs each day for a few days would never be missed. All the boys and nobody except his own parents This thought came ‘e some portions of the Middle West it as the hens laid more freely and Eas- ter drew nearer his resistance grew less and less, One evening—it was the Monday before Easter—he found, far down under the barn eaves, just above the stable, a new nest. There was one fresh, warm egg in it, and after a moment’s hesitation he left it there. By Sunday morning there would be five Six egaes would be enough for his It did not seem so bad His parents nest. He made himself believe that this was not the same and that he was really obeying orders. Jerry was only a boy of 13, remember, and no worse perhaps than most boys of his age or than some very much older, He was not quite so sure of his position as days passed. He thought about it a great deal, amd many times was on the point of bringing the eggs to the house in the evening with the others. Each time, however, he remembered that he had told the boys at school that he would join them on Easter morning with six eggs. This had seemed a small number to the most of them, some of whom had as many as 2, but they were glad he was going and told over and over what a good time they al- ways had. But on Saturday there was no school and Jerry thad all day to think about it. He had a book to read, but somehow he couldn't get interested. So he went to the corn crib and shelled enough corn to last the chickens through’ the coming’ week. This was his regular Saturday's job, and perhaps there is no other occupation that leaves the mind so free for. refiection as ehelling corn. Jerry shelled and thought and shelled. His father returned from town during the afternoon and brought with him a bulky package. It was a new sult of clothes which Jerry had wished for very much. Then Jerry thought and shelled harder than ever and by and by, when he had finished and gathered the eggs, he found it almost impossible to leave the six that were hidden in the haymow far down under the eaves. He left them, how- ever. and went in to supper. Then he found that his mother had scrambled some eggs with bits of ham in them, his favorite dish. “Eggs are high,’’ she said, “and farmers can hardly afford to eat them, but Jerry's been working this afternoon, and he’s fond of them. I'll make some custard for you to-morrow, Jerry, for Easter.”’ “Jerry is a good boy,” said his father. Now Jerry doted on custard, and the ap- preciation of his parents, coupied with his favorite dishes, affected his conscience sorely. He went to bed early after supper, but he could not sleep. He dropped into a troubled doze now and then, but always woke with a start. By and by he heard his parents breathing heavily in the next room and knew they were asleep. Then he rose softly and drew on his clothes. It was a cloudly, dark night, but he knew he could find his way. He woald slip out through the back door of the kitchen to the barn, and he would put those eggs with the others in the pantry. Then perhaps he could sleep, A, eR Ki i Nag yest ie th, i a &@ le Wl loll Ak. sieht pi wT. ns" = Mi) a fi { i Ui; H up to make him find the money for us, but if he makes any fuss hit him with the billy.” “You’re sure he’s got the money, you?” “T saw him get it to-day in town, * wt aed > we) i \y a et ai AN \ at eh ae ff " are Sold ih Si a 0 #) Nu ' in i! i he ih, ly if Mt ) if WARE “STOP RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE!” He was not afraid, and as he stepped out into the moist spring night he began to fee! better. He entered the barn from the front. Then he crept up the ladder to the mow and over the hillocks of hay down under the eaves. He had just taken up the eggs three In each hand, and was going to turn back with them, when suddenly his heart stood still. Just below ‘him in the stable were voices of men entering. “We'll have to get in through the parlor window,” said one. “The blind is off there. We may have to wake the old man his wheat and got $600 in cash.” ‘An’ there ain't nobody else there?’ “Nobody but a boy we can knock in the head if he wakes up.” Jerry felt the coid sweat pouring off of him. They were planning to rob his father and perhaps murder them all. He must get out at once and give -the warning. Then the thought came to him that his father would want to know what he was doing in the barn at that hour. He would have to confess about the eggs. These things flashed through his mind in a second’s time, and In another he had thought of a dozen stories to account for his being in the barn. Then he thought it would Se better to slip out and back to the house and not rouse his father until he heard the men at the par- lor window. He began to wriggle softly from under the eaves, but it seemed to him that the dry hay made a frightful noise. He felt sure the men below must hear him, and he expected them every moment to announce his discovery. Jie still heard their voices talking, but he did not listen. He had heard enough. His only thought now was to get out safely and into his own room. At last he stepped out into the open part of the mow. He listened an instant, then softly crept to the back window. He dared not descend the ladder by which he had come. The window was open and only a few feet from the moist ground. When he reached it he sat down on the hay, with his feet hanging out, and pushed himself into the darkness with his hands. He fellina heap, but was on his feet in an Instant and running toward the house. He reached the kitchen, and, closing the door bolted it. Then he went straight to his father’s room and shook the sleeper. “Father! father!” he called, softly; “there are some men in the stable who are going to rob the house. I was in the hay mow, where IT had been hiding Euster eggs and heard them. They are coming to the par- lor window!” Then he broke out crying, for after all he was only a boy of 13. Jerry's father leaped out of bed instantly, and, throwing on some clothes, selzed an army musket which stood in the corner. He had borne the musket through the war and was not greatly frightened at the thought of two cowardly burglars. Jerry's mother, who was a heavy sleeper, had not awak- ened. Followed by Jerry Mr. Brown nt into the parlor and softly raised the dow. Then he sat.down in a chair, resting the musket on the sill. Jerry still sobbing with remorse and fear crept to his side. The father reached out and took the boy’s hand. “That's all right, Jerry,” he sald. “ I was a boy once. You can have ali the eggs to-morrow you want.” Presently they heard the gate latch lift softly and dimly saw two figures approach- ing the house, It was very dark within and the men outside could not see that the win- dow was open. ‘Stop right where you are!” said Jerry's father, calmly, when they were within a few feet of the musket. “You are covered and the first man that moves dies!" There was a curse from one of the men and both stopped. “Throw up your hands!” commanded Ie ry’s father, and two pairs of hands were seen to rise In the darkness. ‘Now, Jerry,”’ said Mr. Brown, “take this musket. It’s cocked, and if either of them makes a move kill him.” Jerry had handled that musket before and knew how to use it. He took it now, and his father opened the door and stepped out into the yard. In a moment he had cut @ long piece from the clothesline. “Now, gentlemen,” he said, “you will bring your hands dawn behind you. While I am tying this scamp, Jerry, keep the other one covered, and if he moves kill him,”’ Twenty minutes later Jerry's father had the burglars in the wagon and on his wag to jail. Mrs. Brown slept, knew nothing of it until the next morning, and after break- fast Jerry set out with a light heart and a full dozen beautiful eggs for the Master gathering In the woods, His mother said he was a hero, but Jerry was never quite sure of it.

LOVE OUTLASTED TIME AND CHANGE. Strange Story of a Kansas City Woman Whase Affection No Circumstances Could Alter. OVE that outlived desertion and di- | vorce and lasted “‘to the very edge of the churchyard’s moj}i,"’ was that of Johanna Hamilton of Kansas City, Mo. It Jed to peculiar complications, but it never Yost its constancy or its flavor. More than 2 years ago Thomas J. Hamil- ton deserted his wife, Johanna, and went to California. She did not hear from him and after several years of waiting sne employed a detective to look for him. He found him, Mrs. Hamilton went to see him. He refused to live with her again and she returned to Kansas City. In 1886 Hiamilton appeared on A year later he from California. the scene divorce. wife a present ‘ and secured brought his They have three children. of the strangest things tn that although Hamilton and Johanna were divorced, and he was married again, they continued to Jove each other dearly and to write each other letters that breathed One the story {x the warmest affection. Mr. Hamilton at- : tended to her financial affairs and did re- pairing upon the houses she owned. She was worth $10,000, and in 18M she made a will leaving Mr. Hamilton's boy by his sec- ond wife all of her estate. The boy died in the a@pring of 18%, and although Johanna Hlamiiton, the divorced wife, would never look upon his face when he was alive, she went to the funeral and placed a costly wreath of flowers on his grave. After the death of the boy she made an- other will, leaving all her property to her divorced husband. She died in February and no will could be found. Her brothers and sisters claimed the estate. Hamilton claimed it, too. ‘He filed in court a copy of the will which she had made leaving all her property to him, and asked that it be declared her true will. A Jong trial of Hamilton’s claim was had in the Probate Court. Their affection for each other was shown by letters, it was proved that she did will her property to Humilton, but, unfortunate- ly for him, it was shown that a month be- fore her death she consulted a lawyer about drawing up a new will and directed him about what bequests to mention in it and the lawyer went So far as to make a draft of the will, but she never returned iO sign it. This, taken in connection with the fact that no will was found, led Judge Guinotte to conclude that she must ha've destroyed it and he decided that she died without a will, One of the letters written by Johanna Humilton to her divorced and remarried husband, in 1892, five years after the di- vorce, was introduced as evidence, and is ase foltéws: My Dear Husband—Excuse me for still calling you so, but I will call you that as long as I live. I was sorry to hear you were in trouble. My heart aches for you. Oh, I would give the world to see you again. I can never die In peace till I see you. I have a spell of heart trouble. I will never be satisfied till [ settle my affairs. The one ' that belped me earn my property is the one that is entitled to it even if you did not want to lve with me. I want to die with au clear conscience, but I do nét want any other woman to enjoy my money. Now, Tom, if you will give me one of your children I will give him all I have. I don't want one of my own relations to enjoy What I heve. 1 tell it to you from my heart out. I will take your child to my broken heart and love it for your sake, I am well at present—all but a broken heart, and all for love of you. Oh, my life is a fa‘lure all through. Will you write to me, \™my dearest, on this earth. With love, much love, from yours until death, your wife, JOHANNA HAMILTON, 1700 East Eighth street, Kansas City. In his letters to his divorced wife Mr. Hamilton always addressed her as: ‘‘Dear- est Joe,”’ These letters were kept up, year after * .~ year, though both lived in the same town. liis expressions of affection were quite as ardent to her. The other wife any of the letters. In ohne of his letters Hamilton says: “‘I cannot see for the life of me how you can be so Kind to me. I do not deserve it, and it makes me bow my head in shame.” Again, in 1896, he writes: “I had a dream about you last nig:.. If ~ou are not well drop me a note.” Again he acknowledges the receipt of a present from her.

His case is without precedent in medical annals, She Knits Fancy Slippers to+ Had he carried his gold in his pocket In- stead of absorbing it into his system he might have been a millionaire by this time. Boyle started to Alaska in the summer of 189%. He succeeded in reaching Circle City in September. When news of the big strike at Dawson City reached the camp he was one of the first to start for the Klondike diggings. He spent the months of the last Ginter in underground mining, intending to wash the output this spring. He was moderately euccessful, but his nuggets and coarse gold had to a consider- able extent been carried lower down the ereek, while the washing from above left the gravel heavily impregnated with what is known as “flour gold.” This is the finest form taken on by the yellow metal, which in that shape manifests its presence in the sands of all the Rocky Mountain plateaus and even In the waters of the Pacific Ocean, into which it is carried by the streams heading westward from the great conti- nental divide, There is no known method of saving “flour gold,” which will escape over the quicksilver plates of a stamp mill in spite of all efforts to capture it. During the summer of 1897 Boyle was im- mersed to the waist in water much of the time. The ice that comes down the Yukon is rich with gold absorbed from the sands of the shallow stream. The cakes get around on a bar, and as they melt deposit their treasure. It is in this way placers are sometimes formed. The alert miner then waghes the sand from the bar and ob- tains his reward, Boyle washed the gravel from his own claim on one of these bars, hoping to reap a double harvest. Being in the water con- stantiy the pores of the skin absorbed an incredible quantity of “flour gold.”’ He was seized with what he thought was rheumatiam, but kept on with his work until him limbs became unmanageable, wf course, and there, amid the serenity and wmforte of home, the President finds relief ‘ i € dt was as if ossification, if not petrifac- tae Freie. a Pie, 5 aa ae tion, had set in.

He resolved upon an experiment to test the correctness of his theory. Boyle was given teenporary lodgings in a Turkish bathhouse and was submitted to a treatment in which the medicine adm nis- tered consisted largely of mercury, which, as is well known, will carry from the human ‘body every alien and poisonous matter. When he had been there about a week, being dosed constantly with mercury, Boyle was given a thorough Turkish bath, being kept in the sweating-room 4s long as it was considered safe for him to remain there, His chair dn the sweating-room was placed in a shallow basin of sinc, so that the perspiration that poured down from his body would all be retained. He was afterwards rushed through the remaining features of the bath and-eput to bed. When he awoke from a dreamless sleep he was found to have entirely recovered from the hitherto unaccountable stiffness of his limbs, his flesh being soft and plia- ble as an infant’s. This was a great step toward the demonstration of Dr. Harris’ theory, notwithstanding Boyle’s mind was still affected. : The next thing done was to examine the contents of the zinc basin in the sweating room. An assay of its contents showed that the mercury administered in the form of pills had passed off through the open pores of the skin, carrying with it the flour | gold with which Boyle’s body had been saturated. An assay by Superintendent M. A. Grant of the Keystone mine showed that the value of the flour gold drawn from Boyle’s body by means of the mer- cury approximated $270. As far as his body was concerned the treatment was a success. His physician did | not care to attempt a mental curé and sent him to the asylum at St. Joseph. Boyle is now apparently in good health, and Superintendent Woodson believes that his reason can be restored. DENVER HAS 75,000 DOGS. ENVER has %.000 dogs.

A great physician once declared that Nature has provided in the field of Botany a sure Remedy for every disease, if man had the ability to dis- cover it. As disease is the disturbance of some natural function of the body, so Nature provides a remedy for such dis- turbance and thuscures the disease. Thisseems specially true of the late discovery of the Kava- ava Shrub, or as botanists call it, the Piper Methysticum, found on the Ganges river, East India. This wonderful shrub has a peculiar and most beneficent effect upon the human Kidneys in conditions ofdisease, The Kidneys, as is Well known, separate from the blood and cast out through the Urine, certain poisonous matter, such as Uric Acid, Urates, ete., which if retained in the system cause Bright’s Disease, Rheuma- tism, Gout, and other maladies of the Bladder Tur Kava-Kava Suevesand Urinary Organs. The Kava-Kava Sirub (Piper Methysticum.) heals the disordered Kidneys, restores them to their natural functions, and eradicates from the Blood the poisons which cause disease in the system. The discovery of the Kava-Kava Shrub, like the discovery of quinine by early Christian missionaries in ' Peru, was first made by observing the use of the shrub by the natives. Dr. Archibald Hodgson, the t English authority on thesediseases, | describes the sufferings of both Hindoos and white missionaries and sol~ diers on these low, marshy swampsand jungles on the Ganges. He says: “Intense tropical heat and moisture acting a Gecayin vegetation | render these low grounds on the Ganges most unhealthy districts. Jungle fevers and miasma assail the system. © * © The Blood becomes deranged and the Urine thick and dark-colored. ® @ ® Life hangs in the balance. Then when all wodern medical science fafls, safety is found in the prom pt use of Kava-Kava.- A decoction of this wonderfal botanical growth relieves the | Kidneys, the Urine becomesclearer, the feverabates, and recovery sets in,” etc. Of all diseases that afflict mankind, Diseases of the Kidneys are the most fatal and dangerous, and hence the discovery of the Kave-Kava SBhrub—Nature’s Positive Specific Cure for Diseases of the Ki is welcomed by suffering humanity, and its medical compound universally endorsed by the Hospitals and Physicians of Europe. The well-known American physician, Dr. J. M. 8.

STOCKS ARE iN STRONG HANDS. Very Little Carried on Margins, but Nearly All Held by These Able to Pay. —_-_— Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 9.—On a light volume of trading the day’s stock market was al- ternately firm and weak, the price changes eee ttled specula- reflecting the neces es in regard pene Fa cami gain be postponed, lent’s an it was believed if the message ‘as again withheld it would imp] some radical concession on the part of Spain. The foreign stock markets were again closed to-day, as they will be until Sass. day, so there was no influence reflecte from those quarters. The local trading was entirely professional in character ane ave the room traders seemed indispose _ operate extensively with the vast possibili- ies of Monday in view. One bank statement showed the decrease in deposits of $12,399,000. : The market weakened after the pub ica- tion of the bank statement, which a — counted an unfavorable showing. The n- crease in specie, considering the aos fy “a ceipts of gold, was very small; whi ts . large loss of legal tenders indicates: hoarding money is in progress. The marke ced ¢ rally. rhe authorities of the Stock Exchange took the unnecessary precaution of keeping open the Exchange for the transaction of business on Good Friday for the first time in 33 years. This step was taken on the be- lief that the President’s message would Rac sent in to Congress on Thursday, thereby, according to the prevalent reasoning, pre- “ipitatine a erisis in our relations with Spain. and in consequence, perhaps, a panic in the stock market. The incident is in- structive as showing the practical unanim- itv ef opinion that exists in regard to the effect upon the stock market of -actual hos- tilitics. the extent to which, according to invariable custom, the course of prices has discounted the event is ignored in this rea- soning, as is the precedent furnished by the action of the stock market at the time of the outbreak of the civil war in 1861. The low prices in ‘the stock market were made upon the firim@ on Fort Sumter, an event which came as a great surprise, the prob- ability of hostilities having been generally decried. Subsequently during the year prices recovered steadily, the active issues making gains from the low point, averaging 10 points. That was a war, too, which de- ranged the country’s internal economy, and which threatened the integrity of the Union and the divis'on of its resources. The tech- nical conditions of the market indicate a sound situation. The liquidation has been very thorough, and the holdings of brokers offices have been heavily reduced. Such conditions means that stocks have passed from weak into strong hands, and that, in- stead of being carried on margins they are held by persons able to pay for them, and carry them at their pleasure. The deal- ings for foreign account in the market have been wpon a very small scale, but they indicate no alarm as to the final issue of. the diplomatic situation as compared with last week, and notwithstanding the apparent imminence of a cris's in our rela- tions with Spain, both United States Gov- ernment and Spanish bonds are higher, It is a matter of common knowledge that there are large sums of money awaiting in- vestment so soon as the diplomatic situ- ation cléars, and it is equally well. known that the books of commission brokers show unusually large buying orders on a scale down from the present level. This in- di¢ates the general expectation that, while the opening of actual hostilities may be accompanied by a furtner sharp decline in| the market, that decline will mark for the time, at any rate, the culmination of the downward swing of prices. Thereafter, in the event of’ continued hostilities, the market might be affected by the actual for- tunes of war, and in this regard there is fortunately little jo fear. Both the money market and the general business situation continue affected by the prevalent uncertainty. On call money has lent during the week at from 2 to 4 per cent. On Thursdav the Bank of England advanced its minimum rate of discount to 4 per cent, the step be- ing taken on account of the low percentage of the bank’s reserves, which have begun to suffer from the demand for gold from this side. large Western Stock Market.

Clam Cecile G le ¥ WORLD'S WHEAT CROP IT PROMISES TO BE THE LARGEST AND FINEST IN MANY YEARS. FAIR AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY. Cash Demands Slow and Offerings Light, but Sufficient to Supply All Demands of the Market. The grain markets have shown a fair amount of activity, considering the unset- tled state of the Spanish-American ques- tion, and while at times the market was inactive there was a fair volume of busi- ness transacted. There was some heavy covering by the shorts, and a large amount of long wheat came out. The latest ad- vices from Australia are that there will be an exportable surplus of about 10,000,000 busheis of wheat in that country, and late advices from (Cnili are also better. The situation was fuil of uncertainties, however, and fluctuations were rapid and wide. News was generally bearish, but receipts of contract wheat at Chicago are falling off and receipts in the Northwest are grow- ing lighter. This is not surprising when the lateness of the season and the fact that farmers are busy with their spring work is considered, During the earlier part of the week ad- vices from California were somewhat alarming, and tended to stiffen prices, but later the reports of good rains in that State and assurances that port stocks of wheat on the Pacific coast are heavier than they were a year ago tended to allay the appre- hensions of any particularly bullish hews from that quarter. San Francisco reports the export demand rather slow. The bears were afraid to venture very far from cover and while the market was nervous prices were well maintained. The opening of hostilities between a and the United States is apt to be followed by a break, and prices are depressed until it is determined how much resistance Spain will be.able to offer to our navy. The cash demand continues rather slow, and while offerings are qomparnuivey light they are ample to supply al demands. Mil- lers are but indifferent purchasers, and there is little shipping demand. Exporters are unable to do any business, as even with the difference between St. Louis and Chi- cago markets, our prices are out of line with the Buropean bids. Corn is relatively stronger than wheat, as the cash demand is good and offerings are Might. Exports continue heavy, and there appears to be no let-up in the foreign demand. Local receipts have been running some- what lighter, and receipts at primary points have been of moderate dimensions, but shipments from some points are unusually heavy. Stocks are larger than they were a year ago, but appear to be in the hands of exporters, and are not being pressed for sale. Speculation is fairly active. The situation in the oats market shows some improvement. Speculation is still light, but the cash demand is good. Re- ceipts are light and offerings of cash oats are small and readily taken at good prices The output of floor continues light and the demand slow. Foreigners appear to be un- willing to pay present prices, and the do- mestic demand is also light. Local stocks are light, and receipts comparatively small, All advices agree that the condition of the growing crop in Europe is better than it has been at this season for a number of years except in Russia, where the condi- tion, as usual, is an enigma, as reports are conflicting. In France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Hun gary, the United Kingdom and even In Sweden the crop ts in excellent shape and the acreage large. In Tunis and ther North African States the outlook is promising, and in Asia Minor conditions are reported unusually favorable and the acreage above the average. Crop conditions in this country, with the exception of California, according to the various State reports andwthe most reliabie crop experts, are the best since 1891, and the most critical stage appears to have been passed. Nearly every State reports an increased acreage, but in several the increase has been remarkable. In Nebraska it is esti- mated at from 50 to 100 per cent. Kansas reports the largest acreage ever soOWN. Texas reports a heavy increase and in Okla- homa the increase in the average is esti- mated at fully 80 per cent. Spring seeding has already begun and it is estimated fully 10 per cent of the acreage has been sown. ..early every locality re- ports preparations for a largely increased acreage, and the ground in good condition for sowing. Farmers are pleased with their last year’s returns and are generally in bet- ter condition for putting in a large acreage than ever before. If the weather continues favorable for the balance of the season the world’s wheat crop for 1898 will be the largest ever grown. As anticipation gewerally has more effect upon the market than real zation, the pros- pect for a large crop is apt to have a more pronounced effect as the season advances, and it will soon become the leading bear- actor. ae the Cuban question is settled the ‘market will continue nervous, and war news will have more effect than weather or statistical conditions. Receipts at primary pone from July 1 to April 4 were 195,948, bu, the largest shipments for any similar period since 1892-3, but the wheat crop of 1897 was the largest since 1891. and with that exception the largest on record. Export clearances of wheat have been heavy, but considering the size of the crop were not phenomenally large. but domestic consumption hag been unuually light. According to the Liverpool Commercial Trade News the total supplies of wheat in all positions a 1 were 930,000 bushels iarger than on March 1, and 5,290,000 bush- els larger than they were a4 year ago. As the world's shipments of wheat to Europe are running heavy, and far exceed- ing the consumptive demands, stocks are likely to continue to increase for some time, and there is little danger of a scarcity of wheat before the new crop is harveste The world’s shipments last week were over 8,000,000 bushels, of which only a Little over one-third was from the United States, and the indications are that this week's shipments will reach nearly 10,000,000 bush- els. The visible supply, instead of decreasing, showed an Increase for the week, and the ” world's visible also showed a large increase, Argentine shipments are holding up well and Indian shipments appear.

Commissioned a Captain and With Others From the &tates Passed Through Horrors—Wants to Enlist Again. : Capt. Alfred H. J. Bailes of the insurgent army in Cuba reached St. Louis Thursday night. He left ‘here three years ago. In the interim he has twice had marvelous escapes from death on the field, been twice captured and twice escaped from Spanish prisons. He bears the marks of Spanish cruelty. When the insurgent war broke out three years ago Bailes was in Springfield, Mo. He had just returned from South America, where he had taken a part in two revolu- tions.’ He spoke Spanish and was familiar with the island of Cuba. He watched de- velopments until he saw that the struggle was one for independence, He went to Mobile and offered himself Gt | J, a —— =_- CAPT. ALFRED H. J. BAILES, and his savings of $1000 to Gen. Alberto de Arteaga. He was one of the 114 men taken from Jacksonville to Cuba on the first trip of the Three Friends. “We landed at a small inlet between San- tiago de Cuba and the Cape,"’ said Capt. Bailes Friday, “and marched to Santa Hel- ena in the Province of Santa de Cuba.where Gen. Maceo was encamped with 2000 men. Gen. Maceo gave me a Captain's commis- sion. From there I went to Cubitas, the provisional capital, and President Cisneros confirmed my commission. “In May, 1896, with 23 men, all Americans, I was on a foraging expedition when we fell into an ambush. I told the men there was a Ege of escape by retreat, but advised them to fight. They said they would fight. “We fought two and a half hours. I with sword and pistol and the rest of the boys with Winchesters. renty of us were killed. Phillip Reynolds and Joe Smith, both of Arkansas, and myself. were taken prisoners. Bound on horses, with our faces to the rear, we were taken to camp, and from there with other prisoners sent to Moro Castle. “That was at the outbreak of the insur- rection and vigilance was not exercised. My cell door was not locked. At midnight I opened it. The guard was leaning against a post asleep. His. gun stood by his side. I crept out, seized the gun and brought it down with all my force on hig head. He sank down without a groan. I dropped from a port hole ® feet to the ground, and escaped without injury. “Havana was not closely guarded then. and as I knew the city well I easily escaped to the woods and regained the insurgenta. ‘Aug. 21, 1897. I was ordered to carry a dispatch from Gen. Garcia, in camp at Las Rosas, Santa de Cuba, to Gen. Gomez at Pinar del Rio. ‘As many Spaniards were known to be in the country around Las Rosas an escort of 14 men was sent to accompany me about 10 miles. ‘ ‘Eight miles from 1. * we came upon a column of Spaniards, fe turned back, to find we were pureued. We dismounted and took to the underbrush. A detachment of 2 Spaniards discovered us and sur- rounded us. We stood shoulder to shoulder until we all fell. I wae the last to go down. The flag had fallen. I ean lt up. A Spaniard leaped upon me. brought my sword down upon his head. The blade snapped. The Spaniard'’s sword laid the flesh of my arm bare to the bone.

A Demented Sailor Gets Into Trouble in Chicago. CHICAGO, April 9.—Threw his money away on Wednesday, blew out the gas on Thursday, jumped in the lake on Friday and landed in the detention hospital on Saturday. These are the experiences of Adolph Nicholson, a demented sailor from Seattle. His satchel, containing $410, was found lying on the prairie near Englewood by the police last night. Two nights before Nicholson threw it away, and walked from Englewood across the prairie to South Chi- cago, where he sought shelter at the police station. Money being found in his pockets he was directed to a hotel. Before going to bed he blew out the gas and narrow y escaped death. Yesterday he jumped into the lake and started to swim jn the direc. tion of the Sixty-seventh street crib, which he imagined was the battleship Maine.

LO ¥ as 5 _ ; alta oe mgm oe ; 5 f Fs - ’ : Ge ECRET OF “Age ie a matter of feeling, net of years.” It has been frequently said that a woman is as old as she looks, but a man only as old as he feels. It has also been from time to time declared by various wiseacres that every woman looks her age. Helen of Troy was forty-s'x when men fought for her smiles and favors. Diane de Poitiers was fifty-six when men far and near acknowledged her a siren whose fascinationg none could re- sist. Julie Recamier at sixty could scarcely dissuade an enam- ored prince, half her age, from suicide, because she declined to accept his protestations of passionate love. Ninon de 1!'Enclos’s last desperate affair of the heart occurred when that lady was in her early eighties. But you will say, very properly, that these are women of history, and personal history !s apt to be far from ac- curate in such cases. Let me then point to you examples of per- of our own generation. who really 1g only as old as her face and figure appear. Mme. Bernhardt is far beyond fifty. or thirty-eight on the stage but, wonder of wonders, she posi- tively does not look a day over thrty in private life. I know Mme. Bernhardt and the last time she was here I leoked closely at her face. I scrutinized every feature; I was on the alert for the lines that are said to mark the fortieth year; for the loss of flesh firmness which is, unless prevented by care, almost certain to in- ‘rude its unwelcome presence at about forty-six. I watched Mme. Bernhardt as perhaps she never was watched before, and I de-, clare to you that, with the exception of a few tiny emotional lines about the upper lip, Sarah Bernhardt is as young in appearance to-day as she was when I saw her twenty-odd years ago in Paris; a thousand times better looking, more charming and Recinating: , Slons and to care for herself aacordingly? I believe that no one — nmevery way. Adelina Patti is another woman over ‘fifty who will never bé old in appearance-and whom no one can recall as a really ol woman, | I could continue,. had I. space, to cite innumerable atin in- + ‘pei stances which would prove the statement I make unqualifiedly | when I declare there is no necessity for a woman's growing old. Now when I say there ts no necess‘ty for a woman’s growing ' old I mean just what the words stand for. This statement is in- for twenty years, if they will. I have another and more compre- hensive one to make, and one that I have fully proved and am prepared to prove again. It is that women of fifty or over who choase to do so may recover in appearance and feeling, the youth ‘ They may get back the lost lines , they have been defrauded of. and curves, the freshness of skin and elasticity of step, if they but will to do so. It has taken a good many years and an eternity of patience to convince the modern woman that she is accountable to herself as - .*'and the more respect I have for scrubbing-brushes, soap and water, triple chin, scant locks, toothless mouth, bent back and a general * invitation in her appearance ‘to T:me to do his worst, a Pushing out te meet and embrace every foe to her looks and her happiness well as to her family for every wrinkle for her middle-aged figure, as well. There is an old adage, and a true one, which says “Comeliness recommends virtue.”’ If there were virtue in plainness this world ought to be very much better than I at least . Mortals are led by appearance. It is the beautiful women of the world who have been the most powerful, It is the beautiful women who have largely made history. be for the highest duties that may devolve upon her. It has been said that there is no royal road to beauty.

Seventy- ve per cent. of the women I encounter at me in holy horror when I insist | their scrubbing their countenances a scrubbing brush; not such a , I hasten to add, as one uses fo! the kitchen floor, nor yet a nail brush, ‘put atwork of care and gcience known to ‘the trade under the name of a camel’s- hair face-scrubbing brush. W3:th this brush, a pure hygienic soap, a simple emollient or toilet cream, and plenty of hot water I will undertake to cure ‘most of the bad complexions in any community, always excepting cases of aoe disease caused by interna] disor- vi ders of inherited tendencies. I never advance this theory to a group of women that I am not met with “‘Ohs” ‘and “Ahs’’ and tales of professional peauties. and great-grandmothers who - never allowed even warm water to come - fm contact with their faces. But I re- ~ main obddurate. T say, ‘Produce your --gnwashed beauty or your remarkable mat-grandmother,”’ and they never do. he four most emphatic representative types of protracted and persistent ~ feminine beauty and perpetual youth- fulness of our day at present, are - acknowledged to be Sarah Bernharft, _ Ullian Russell, Lily Langtry and Ade- ina Patti. I know all of these women f gereonallly. and they are, without ex- _eeption, the greatest scrubbers of my ‘acquaintance. Mme. Bernhardt fairly revels in hot water, brushes and soap. — HIS IS THE WAY TO WASH YOUR FACE. Lillian Russell comes from her dally soap and brush scrub looking like a Verus. Adelina Patti spends an hour a day washing and scrubbing her coun- tenance, and Mrs. Langtry is a verita- ble water nymph. There is nothing for it; i you Want a good complexion you must first have a clean skin. How long do you think your hands would remain clean if you dabbdied them with a little wet rag once a day, or gingerly tapped them every morning with a soaking sponge. It is utter non- sense. Hot water, pure soap, and a scrubbing-brush used every night before going to bed; a thorough rinsing so that every particle of soap is washed out of the pores (for it fs just as injurious to clog the pores with soap as any other matter); a little toilet cream, if the skin is chafed or irritated; time and patience, and you have the secret of a fair, fresh skin, despite all and every argument to the contrary. CURE FOR BLACKHEADS. The only real cure I know of for black- heads is the use of the camel’s-hair face- scrubbing brush with warm water and a pure hygien!le soap. Use the camel’s- hair face-scrubbing brush every night. Immerse the brush in warm water, rub the soap on it until you get a good lather, scrub the face for a moment or two, rinse thoroughly with clear warm water, then apply a good cold cream or sk'n food. All this should be done at THE RIGHT WAY To WASH T THE FACE night, just before going to bed. If you have the correct brush it may make the face a little tender for a day or two, but not longer. ‘THE GEOGRAPAY OF A SPOILED GIRk’S FACE. - There is no dodging the fact that the _» youthful beauty of the American girl in ‘its original charm rarely outlives the third society season.

At the end of three years I beg to point out to you at any one of your ultra-fashionable functions a young woman who takes her cocktails before she can even swal- low her coffee, when she is awaking from a narcotically induced sleep about midday; a young woman who smekes cigarettes almost incessantly, and whose face is, at the end of three years, such a startling record of the dissipations of smart life that the most callous heart is moved to pity in contemplating it.

a. A - VA ge ‘Where fair is, praise cannot mend.’’ Sculptors and painters declare that a woman's beauty is more largely depen- dent upon her form than any other at- tribute. They say that if, like the im- mortal Trilby, she is made up of “‘beau- tiful bones,’’ she cannot fail to be a lovely woman. I differ from,even such high authority. My expériciice teaches me that a woman's beauty depends more upon the delicacy. texture and purity of her skin than upen anything else. I care not how admirable a wo- man’s form may be, nor how classic the lines of her face and head. Moreover, I will add that with perfect form and features a woman may be a paragon of all the domestic virtues and despite these gifts and graces she will not be able to command the affection we all crave, the honest love we have a right to strive for if her face is marred by an unsightly skin. I think Eve would have been quite safe in the Garden of Eden—not only from the historic serpent, but from Adam ~ - genditiae she been freckled or pim- pled. For years it has been my custom to make note of the’ skin blemished of women and girls wherever I have heen, and I have discovered that about twent out of one hundred of the women an girls one meets in the ordinary pursuits of life have really beautiful, healthful skins. The other eighty are afflicted with blackheads, pimples and various forms of acne. If I wish to be truthful and useful to my readers I am bound to say that I do honestly believe uncleanliness is the chief cause of these unsightly skins. Perhaps I should qualify this sweeping statement by saying that a mistaken idea of cleanliness prevails, and that a mere bath every day, without friction, to be secured only by the aid of a brush, or a bath without a good detergent soap, does not entitle one to bé called absolutely clean. The average woman is not much in- terested in the structure of the skin, but every woman should understand some- thing about its nature. The skin is constantly undergoing the process of reproduction and decay, con- stantly secreting and endeavoring to throw off the decayed and useless mat- ter. The skin of the face attempts to throw off its dead and useless scurf in tiny, dust-like particles, It also endeav- ors to rid itself of the sebaceous matter from the skin ducts and of the various oils for which it has no further need. Unless these specks of dead cuticle are daily removed by friction the channels cannot be kept open. In a warm climate much of the refuse matter of .the skin is carried away by persriration. Un- fortunately, the American climate, with its sudden changes, has the contrary effect and arrests the flow of perspira- tion. The consequence is congestion of the skin ducts, and the results, in a short time, are thousands of pores of the face positively loaded and ob- structed with adhering refuse matter, which is not only filthy but actually poisonous in its effects when forced back into the blood. I wish that I e vidual woman who poe hy spair of women and my patients, and Ha Is who have been cleansing and friction Vv mequtitul. Satiny aumeee sine i y women of great refinemen a most extraordiny idea as to the Pn mee ing of the word “cleanliness” in connec- tion with the skin, particularly of the face, and thousands still believe that soap will ruin the complexion. I cannot on my life understand by what theory a woman arrives at the conclusion that her hands require scrubbing and wash- ing with soap several times a day. and that if she wishes to keep them soft and pretty she mus «keep them clean—as nothing so absolutely destroys their beauty and texture as dirt and inatten- tion—and yet will insist that soap and water and friction are unnecessary for her face in order to keep it clean and pretty. As a matter of fact, the face ts much more susceptible to dust than the hands, because of the numerous oll glands. Unquestionably tne weauty of the skin is more dependent upon its cleanliness than anything else, and in this climate cleanliness may only be obtained by fre- quent use of warm water, a pure hy- gienic soap and by a friction which must not be too violent but must be searching enough to dislodge all foreign matter from the pores, keep them open and en- ourage them in the performance of their functions. This friction ié obtained through the dai.y use of the camel s-hair face-scrubbing brush, which is no fad of mine, but has proved its value in hun- dreds of thousands of cases since it has been made ee mata the columns of the Sunda orld. Blackheads and large pores, and many of the simple forms of skin diseases, need no other treatment than that which is celled the camel’s-hair face-scrub- bing brush treatment.

When a wife sees a pepeare-comins ghost of herself reflected from her mir- ror; whan perhaps she is' painfully con- scious that the eyes she loves best are turning from her faded beauty to a less worthy object, then I think she is not only justified im delicately simulating, 7 every aid kmown to cosmetic art, the charms she has lost, ‘but she is stupid not to do so. It is the plain, unadorned, weary and too natural woman whose husband inva falis a victim to the wiles of a Delilah «r succumbs to the artificial charms of a Jezebel in propria persona, The very man who will almost fall in a fit at the sight of toilet powder in his wife’s dressing-room will break her heart and waste his substance in the worship of a peroxide or regenerator Titiam-haired blonde.

The faded woman who proposes to call cosmetic art to her support should learn to sim- ulate nature by practising in the strong- est daylight. The make-up here suggested is in- tended for evening and to bear the glare of electric lights and should be very much modified for wes Instead of an enamel, which always gives the face a porcelain look, a deli- cate liquid powder is first applied to the face, neck and arms. This preparation is called the liquid whitener. It is made as follows: LIQUID WHITENER. One quart of water, previously boiled and strained; alcohol, thirty drops; ox- ide of zinc, one ounce;. bichloride of mer- cury, eight grains; glycerine, twenty drops. Take four ounces of water and heat it to boiling; dissolve the bichlo- ride of mercury in this hot water, add the alcohol. Mix the zinc and glycerine together in a bowl; pour the larger por- tion of the quart of water in; stir, then add the diluted bichloride of mercury and alcohol. Bottle and shake always before using. Apply the liquid with a small, soft, velvet sponge. This liquid should be wiped off with a chamois skin before it has had time to try, or it will appear streaky. A little color for the cheeks (the finest French rouge should be used for this purpose), ‘the slightest touch of the eye- brow pencil to the eyelids and eye- brows, a faint addition to the color of the lips, stolen from a stick of French “grenadine,” as it is called, and last of all a very little powder (formula for which I give), all applied in the strong- est glare of daylight—this sort of make- up is positively imperceptible at night, and is, beyond question, wonderfully be- coming. WHITE FACE POWDER. Finest cornstarch, one ounce; pure OX- ide of zinc (best quality), three ounces; mix thoroughly and sift through very fine bolting silk; reject all that remains in the bolting; sift the second time through another bit of bolting silk; perfume with three drops of oil of rose. It is very difficult to make a satisfac- tory rouge at home. I give formulas, but I must say the ingredients are fre- quently adulterated or of inferior qual- ity. Therefore I advise the imported article.

The Giggler ECHNICALLY a wrinkie is @ looseness of the skin, caused by the failure or attenuation of the under-structure. This definition, how- ever. applies only to such of the lines in the human face as are formed in ex- treme age by the degeneration of the muscle as well as by tmpairment of the fatty tissue. It is a mistake to suppose that all wrinkles indicate old or aa- vanced age. It is a tallacy to suggest that wrinkies and lines are not indica- tions of temperament and character. We are each one accountable tor the lines ang crows’ feet on our faces, for they are the most faithful and unerring record of our past. The muscular contractions of the brow or cheek cause the lines, and it is fortunate for us that there are among them those that indicate good and beau- tiful attributes. When you see a man or a woman with a wrinkied face you may be very sure that every line Is a tell-tale. The lines that indicate a sense of humop are easily enough recognized. They are frequently called crows’ ‘feet, and are found at the corners of the eyes even in ear.y youth. They are never unpleasant. These are not the lines of the s.lly, simpering girl, who, unless she mends her ways and ceases to gig- klé, will develop into a woman who is accompanied through life by an idiotic grin. It is absolutely impossible for a wom- an of charity, benevolence and human- ity to look Ike an avaricious or spite- ful woman. When you see a woman with a spiteful face, you may be certain her countenance but reflects her char- acter. The lines that indicate a love of gos- @ip are’ very readily recognized. There is a certain droop to the mouth which @ woman's face will always take on suet after she has asked if you have du WRINKLES ’ heard the latest about Mrs. Bo and Bo. It does not need any explanation from me to describe the lines that tell the story of an irritable, fretful nature, They are always drocping, just as mirthful happy lines are curves. The lines in the face that ind-cate revenge are also always drooping and malicious looking. In such cases there is usually a line from the nose to the lower corner of the mouth, and several fine, obiique lines upon the sides of the nose. The cynical face is marked by an up- ward, sneering line at the mouth ecor- ners and usually by a network of small lines which indicate a general contemp! for persons and things. The talker’s wrinkle commences in and ines near the lower cheek, andj runs down under the chin from side to side. The straight up and down lines fur- rowed in the brow denote sternness and sharpness, Horizontal lines across the forehead are an indication of a eonscientious struggle to do right. Diagonal lines, criss-crossed in the middle of the brow, mean smal! frets and worries. After sixty one should expect wrink- les. Up to that time they may properly be considered premature. I do not hesitate to say, however, that the treatment necessary for their objlit- eration is largely a mora] one. For ex- ample, I do not believe it possibie by any external agency to eradicate malicious wrinkles until after the subject has re- formed ‘her ways, nor do 7 think re- vengeful lines will yleid to massage alone. In other words it comes to this—that an ill-tempered woman cannot have the lines provoked by her lack of amiability taken away until she ceases to exercise the muscles that reflect her thoughts and have caused these lines. A good woman cannot like a bad one, and a bad thirty-five years of age, in my has never looked Mke a saint.

They may be tem- porarily removed in some cases by the following omtment: Kaolin, 4 grammes; lanoline, 0 grammes; glycerine, 4 grammes; carbonate of magnesia and oxide of sinc, 2 grammes each. Apply to the moth patch at night and wash away the fol- lowing morning with warm water and a pure hygienic soap. Where the moth patch is very dark and is of long standing electrolysis will be more satisfactory than any other treatment. In ordinary cases the bi¢chloride of mercury bleach will keep the patch in abeyance. All women afflicted with these ugly discol- orations should set to work to relieve the cause by a course of treatment for the liver or kidneys. SUPERFLUOUS HAIR. Superfluous hair on a woman's face is a most unfortunate blemish. Science haa failed to discover a cure for this deformity. Electrolysis alone is successful. There are thoysande of +:o- called depilatories upon the market. Depilatory powders are the commonest of these. These preparations are composed of sul- phite of arsenic or of caustic lime and merely burn the hair off to the surface of the skin. They never eradicate the roots, and the hair will always reappear. Electrolysis is painful and, unfortunately, the operation has to be repeated many times, as it is rarely successful; that is to of one hundred hairs that are treated the average is

“Culling from every flowér Their virtuous sweets.” The result of an attempt to make fragrant odors from the flowers themselves is usually most discouraging to the amateur. All delicate odors are made from oils or pomades. These oils or pomades contain the perfume of the flower. The process of preparing these pomadeg-is intricate and rarely successful except when done scientifically. The pomades are im- ported, however, and can be obtained from dealers in essential oils, and it is not difficult to distil a perfume from them. If you wish to make an extract of rose, take an ounce of oi] of roses, add one p'nt of pure alcohol (above proof), shake together in @ large clean bottle. Place the bottle in a ves- se! of hot water, until the contents acquire a temperature of about 8 degrees Fahrenheit. Then cork the bottle, shake it briskly until the liquid is cold.

Certainly these brown, oval-shaped epots dotted about the face and hands are not pretty, but they do not look-un- clean, as blackheads do, nor do they re- flect diseas , a8 scerofulous pimples must. They are, however, disagreeable and unpleagant. Freckles are divided into two classes— summer freckles, which usually fall to the lot of fair-skinned, light or auburn haired girls, and are produced almost in- stantly on exposure to strong light, dis- appearing within a little while if the subject remains indoors or in the shade; and winter freckles, sometimes called cold, which never disappear except through. external agencies, and ‘then only with the cuticle itself. A great many women labor under the impression that some lotion made of simple and neutral ingredients will, if they can only get at the secret of its making, remove every freckle from their faces in the course of an hour or two. l am constantly besieged by anxious girls and women who insist that, if I only will, I can tell them ef a perfectly harmless liquid which will remove their freckles. A freckied face is a face which 1s stained clear through the skin, in spots. This stain comes from under- neath and is brought to the surface, as I have attempted to explain. The dis- coloration may be faded very much in some cases by the use of a relatively harmless and innocent compound, but there is no way (and I make this as- sertion without reservation), of remov- ing dark frecklés, and many of the lighter ones also, except by the use of an irritant strong enough to blister and peel the skin. The best known freckle removers are made of a base of bich- loride of mercury, which is identical with corrosive suDlimate, and is, of course, an active mineral poison. All of the face bleaches so called, contain bichloride of mercury, or at least all those I have analyzed, some twenty or thirty. Bichloride of mercury is a spec.fic for many skin maladies. Its use in this particular !s authorized by the macopoeia, dispensatory and French dex. Its abuse should be, if it ts not, criminal offense. The pharma copecia lows a certain amount of bi ‘ mercury to be used in soluti wise, in skin lotions, but tating the cuticle that it and peel. Besides the bi cury bleach—for which I give formula in its modified and proper quest tity—there are two others successful-y used, one which is made of @ base of lactic acid and has been indorsed by the Medical Record, and the other a preparation called hydrozone, a form of peroxide of hydrogen. In the bleaches which are sold the amount of bichloride of mercury is cer- tainly three or four times more than that which I give. The manufacturer of the first face bleacn, so called, in this country told me herself that this — was so, and she also related to me the direful results in some cases of a solu. tion not sufficiently dfluted. f

ate = So tee RIGHT WAY TO WASH THE HAIR. 999000999999 99 9OOOE: “Oh, wondrous, wondrous is her hair, A braided wreath of golden brown, That drops on neck and temples bare.”’ The whee of a beautiful head of hair is prehistoric. Nations have differed in their standard of the beauty of every feature of the face. They have all agreed with St. Paul: “If a woman have long hair it is a glory to her.’ Scant locks and bald heads seem ever to have been objects of contempt, ridicule and satire. Even a Roman slave was made to feel this, and sold for half his value if he were bald. The quality and abundance of the hair are largely inherited. One sees entire families of scant-haired women and prematurely bald men, and less often a race of people who, for generations, are noted for their superb heads of hair. You will hear frequently of certain families: ‘‘All those Smiths had spiendid heads of hair’ or “The Johnsons all lost their hair early.”’ The general health has a great effect upon the hair growth, and the result of serious illness, particularly where there is fever or great loss of flesh, is always severely felt in the condition of the hair. Bald- ness, unless the hair roots are absolutely dead, can be cured and a new growth of hair will finally repay the time and patience re- quired in producing it. The hair roots are like those of a tree or plant—capable of coaxing back to life and ‘strength so tong as there is anything to work upon. Of course, once the hair roots are dead it is useless to attempt to bring back the growth. There - is mo cure for dead roots of the hair. When the hair falls out after a long illness or grief or anxiety or too pryfound study the best course is the heroic one—cut it off and cast it from you lit- erally. Care of the hair should begin in infancy, when it is generally soft, thin aid extremely pliable. From babyhood up to the age of seven a child’s head should be thoroughly washed daily. In no other way can the scalp be kept clean. Water and soap are the only cosmetics required for children. Grown persons should wash the hair at least once a week. The following shampoo is the best for the weekly hair-washing: FORMULA FOR SHAMPOO. Melt a cake of pure olive oil soap in a quart of boiling water. When the soap is dissolved the result will be almost a jelly. Take ‘ of this jelly say two large tablespoonsfuls, add a small lump of common washing soda about the size of a filbert. First wet the hair thoroughly with hot. water; then rub the shampoo mixture well into the roots. Rinse thoroughly in several waters, then carefully dry, Occasionally an egg shampoo is more useful than the regular soap mixture. This is the case frequently after fevers and ill- ll TWO GOOD CURES FOR FALLING HAIR. Cologne, 8 ounces; tincture of cantharides, 1 ounce; oil of Eng- lish lavender, oil of rosemary, % dram each. Apply to the roots of the hair once or twice a day. It is positively necessary that the scalp should be kept clean. Shampoo at least once a week. Phenic acid, 2 grammes; tincture of nux vomica, 7% grammes; tincture red cinchona, 30 grammes: tincture of cantharides, 2 grammes; cologne, 120 grammes; sweet almond oil, 60 grammes. Apply to the roots of the hair with a soft sponge once or twice a day. This lotion is especially good for very dry hair. WRONG WAY TO WASH THE HAIR. ness due to debility. The egg shampoo is made as follows: Yolk of one egg, one pint of hot rain-water, one ounce of | spirits of rosemary. Beat the yolk of the egg, add the water lit- tle by little, beating continuously; lastly the rosemtary. Use it > rubbing it well into the skin of the head. Rinse in several waters. It is a mistaken idea that washing the hair frequently is in- jurious to it. On the contrary, cleanliness has never been other than healthful. Brushing the hair thoroughly and gently is of the utmost importance, but the old theory that brushing alone will promote a magnificent chevelure is erroneous. Scurf, or dandruff, is, unless in a most aggravated form, not a disease. It is the result of neglect, or, in plain English, uncteanliness. Scurf, or furfura, is a natural and healthy formation, and very fre- quently it is produred by rapidly growing and very luxuriant hair. You may keep dandruff from accumulating, but you cannot prevent its formation. When the scurf is excessive, despite great cleanliness, it denotes an unhealthy condition of the scalp. In such cases the following lotion may be used, but always in con- junction with very frequent washings: Extract of rosemary, 1 dram; tincture of cantharides, % dram; solution of carbonate of potassium, 1% drams; distilled water, 4 fluid ounces. Where there is great physical debility and a great failure of health in connection with the falling hair, a course of tonic medi- cines taken internally is often very serviceable. Prematurely gray hair is usually an inhermtance from father to daughter or from mother to son, or it may come from a gen- eration or two back. The failure of the hair pigment causes the change in color. It has been demonstrated that in connection with the natural oily substance contained in the hair tube, there is always a quan- tity of mineral ingredients in the pigment. The failure of one of these minerals will cause a change in the color of the hair. Blond hair contains a great deal of magnesia; chestnut and brown hair a preponderance of sulphur, while in black hair the iron predomi- nates. The failure of iron is usually first in the pigment, and for this reason black hair turns gray earlier than blond. For this same reason women with black hair are obliged during the transition process to submit to the curious change from black to a sort of yellow, which is indescribably ugly and trying. Many -women write me asking for something which will change black hair to silver white and do away with the yellow shade. There is no harmless preparation which will effect this desirable result. Inasmuch as the color of the hair depends upon the minerals in the pigment I am forced to say, despite all argument to the contrary, that no external preparation has yet been compounded which will really restore the original color and is not a stain or dye. If you, by a chemical process, take the color out of a bit of ¢pink cashmere you know it cannot be restored excepting by a dye. The same is true of the hair. I have never seen a home-made dye which was not plainly perceptible.

Physical culture has, happily, passed the ‘‘craze’’ stage, and has settled down to a sensiMe and reasonable amount of daily physical exercise. Thinking women who know something of anatomy and a little of pare ogy, gre satisfied that nothing will take the place of the daily exercises which bring all the muscles of the body into play, expand the lungs and send the blood tingling through the veins. They know that by a certain amount of physical training they will never lose their sup- ple grace, never develop huge abdo- mens and hips and will never join the army of distorted creatures, the extraor- dinary results of overeating and inertia, known as the women with the middle- age figure—the women who, as poor Kate Field used to say, ‘‘will insist upon sitting on the ends of their spimes.’’ There are a number of excellent m- hasiums in eve large city where women may go, when they wish, to take . exercise, but the average woman may towing ae well practice gymnastics in er bedroom. Boudoir gymnastics, persistently fol- lowed, will prevent a woman from grow- ing stiff or stout, and will remedy many physical defects which are the results, usually, of bad habits and inaction. Even young girls inclined to stoop, and aenemic, may take exercises every morning which prove of incalculable benefit to them, with very simple ap- pliances or, indeed, with none at all. The boudoir exercises may include the use of the stick, dumbbells and clubs. They may be perfectly well taken in the night-dress. The windows should be thrown open, if the weather is not too cold, to admit the fresh air. The first exercise should be a breathing ex- ercise. The subject stands perfectly erect, heels together and arms extended straight in front, palms touching. The palms are now separated, the arms sweep backward. The exerciser mean- while draws in a full breath. Next the arms are thrown as far backward as ‘STRENGTH AS BGAUTV’S Abby. Points on Boudoir Gymnastics. ossible without inconvenience, the ungs are expanded and the exercises reversed, the arms brought to the first position and the breath exhaled. These movements shuuld’ be repeated about five times. The next movement is as foHows: The subject drops her arms close to her hips and raises them above her head without bending the elbows, but drawing in the breath during this move- ment, exhaling the breath as the arms are dropped to the hips again. Next the subject doubles her fists and draws them toward her until they strike her shoulders, the elbows being close to her sides. Then she extends them full to the front as though striking at a punching bag, inhaling and exhaling at each movement. The neck exercises should follow; the subject lets her head drop forward as though she had no control over the muscles of the neck. She then rolls her head with a circular motion from side to side as though she were trying to describe a circle. The next. boudoir gymnastics are usually those with the dumbbells. The first fgur simple dt™mbbell exercises are practiced. he leaning movements, where the subject leans forward until! the tips of the fingers touch the toes, are also excellent. The leg swing. where the subject tries to see how large a circle she can describe in the air by swinging first one leg and then the other, using the large toe as a marker, is useful for ee the thigh, and brings into action all the muscles of the leg trom the foot to the hip. High kicking is also practiced, but I disapprove of it, as I have known cases where serious results have followed. and it is usually too much of an exer- tion. The broomstick exercises, as well as those of the bells and clubs, are per- fectly described in a little book called “Handbook of Light Gymnastics, which can be purchased for a very small sum at any of the booksellers. $e 9 Be = +o e Gon se een e Gem eee Ge ~ Oe — Oe — Be ~ Be — Oe — Ge — 0 Be — 9 Be -9 Oe — 0 ® YOU CAN’T BE TOO CAREFUL OF YOUR TEETH. “Take .one front tooth from fair Helen’s mouth,” says an old author, “and there had never been a siege of Troy and the divine Iliad had never been written.” ; Truly it is impossible to conceive of a beautiful woman without her rows of shining white teeth. They are the key- stone of good looks, and many and many a girl has been saved from plain- ness by the possession alone of a double set of perfect, compact, well-formed, white teeth. Twenty-five years ago there was some excuse for the prema- ture loss or decay of the teeth. Scien- tific dentistry has made tremendous strides during the last quarter of our century; and I say it advisediv a girl or woman. disfigured by imperfect, ill- £ shaped teeth at the present time is a human being suffering from a neglect whiwh only the extremest poverty can cond. te. No sacrifice should be con- sidered too great to the mother who must economize where her own or her whildren’s teeth are concerned: better a thousand times go without furbelows and superfluities of every description than without the care of a good dentist; not the so-called professor of painless tooth-snatching, but the serious, ac- complished and always conscientious dental surgeon who will care for each tooth patiently and wisely, treating it and its ailments as catetuliy and scien- tifically” as though it were an eye or a limb. No tooth should ever be extracted =e there is a vestige of life left in its roots.

HOW TO CARE FOR THE NAIRS. Best Ways to Beautify Prety Fingers. Manicure means care of the hands, It is said that it takes three generations to make a gentleman, but five to insure perfect and patrician hands. The first manicure (at least of modern times) was M, Sitts.. The office was created by Louis Philippe, King of France, Sitts had for some time been intrusted with the care and comfort of the roya! feet; one day the august patron complained of an agnail on one of his fingers, and Sitts removed it so deftly and with such skill that the grate- ful monarch then and there gave the care of his sacred hands to the delight- ed pedicure. The descendants of the original Sitts still control the manicure trade in Paris. : To take perfect care of the hands one requires a very few simple implements and five minutes’ time six days in the . week. A nail clipper should be uséd in placed of the curved scissors; the clip- pers never create agnails, commonly eal'ed hangnails. Never use a sharp in- etrument under the nail. An orange- wood stick carefully whittled to a emooth, flat point should be used instead of a metal nail cleaner. Abjure the cuticle knife; it simply bruises and hacks the selvage around the nail, which should never be cut. Use a vel- vet file instead of one of the rougher kind. A bit of lemon will remove all stains from the fingers and will not in- jure the texture of the nails. All liquid bleaches for whitening the nails are merely a diluted mineral acid of some powerful nature; they inevit- ably thicken the nail and render it opaque instead of transparent. Keep a bit of pumice soap on hand for re- moving roughness and ink spots. After washing the hands press the skin or selvedge around the nail gently away from it, particularly at the base, so that the moon will show, as it is considered a sign of beauty. The moons are really indications of physical strength, and are never seen on the fingers of the sick. The little white flecks on the Dails in- aes ‘4 ¥ ee 4) rey igh wide eS hae me +, Ka 1s he PEEL ta dicate disturbed circulation: no external application will cure them. Once a week is often enough for man!- curing, which one may easily do for one’s self. Operate upon one hand at a time as follows: Cover the tips of tie fingers with amandine; soak the hand for at least fifteen minutes in a bow] of warm water, into which a piece of hygienic soap has been cast; dry the fingers carefully, pressing the selvage down all around. Use the clippers to cut with; a little practice and you will secure a perfect pointed oval in form, and each nail will be the same length and contour. Remove all foreign matter from unde the nail with the orange-wood stick. If there are stains or discolorations, take them off with lemon. Apply a very, very little rose paste to the surface of the nail; next dust them rather thickly with nail powder and polish with a bit of chamois skin; rub always across, never up and down. Rough, -hard wors will, Of course, injure the appearance of the hands un- less they are cared for. Almond meal, used each day, is all that is necessary in addition to the advice above, to keep them soft, white and pretty. Where there is undue moisture of the palms try the following lotion: Cologne water, 70 grammes. Tincture belladonna, 15 grammes. Amandine may be made at home, but is very difficult to prepare. It is cheaper in the end to purchase it at one of the department shops. NAIL POWDER. Silicon, eight ounces; oxide of zinc, two ounces; infusorial earth, one ounce; lake (00), enough to color pale rose. Mix in a mortar and sift through fine sieve. ROSE PASTE FOR THE NAILS. Spermaceti, one and one-half ounces; white wax, nine drams; oil of almonds, twelve ounces; alkKanet root, two ounces; attar of rose, one dram. Melt the first four ingredients in a hot water bath; strain, beat until nearly cold; then add attar of roses.

THIS IS THE WAY TO REDUCE WEIGHT. (Illustrated by an Actual Instance.) | i ” b 1 BEFORE BEGINNING TREATMENT. (From a photograph for the Sunday World.) The case of Mrs. Martha Baker is briefly given here that it may serve as an object lesson to all who are inter- ested in ‘the reduction of flesh. After studying the subject for many ‘ears and experimenting in innumer- le cases, I am convinced that there id only one wholesome method for iminating fat, and that that method is practically made up of diet and ex- ercise. Unfortunately, as the flesh-forming habit increases, the disposition to stir about or take exercise decreases, and the results are seen every day in the men and women of positively monstrous proportions who drag out an existence which is really a burden to them. During the first two or three weeks, Mrs. Baker lost flesh because she ab- sorbed each day a certain amount of the accumulated fatty tissue instead of adding to it. as she had done. 1 Bive Mrs. Baker’s regimen herewith, and in a general way obese people may perfectly well follow this system : Seven hours’ sleep only out of twenty- four. No naps. Indoor and out of door physical exercise, such as house- hold duties, walking, bicycling, tennis, golf and gymnastics of any kind. Recol- lect that exercise that! oxygenates the blood positively must burn the fat away. Diet: The obesity patient may eat gluten bread or toasted wheat bread with salt as a substitute for butter; un- derdone beef and mutton as often as the subject wishes. Fowls at rare inter- vals, Any fish excepting salmon or fish which !s preserved with salt and oil. All salads or so-called green vegetables eaten without oil as a dressing. Spin- ach, cucumbers, radishes, tomatoes, cab- bage, cauliflower, turnips, celery, all ripe fruits uncooked, or cooked without sugar. One cup of coffee, without cream or sugar, in the morning. If it is im- possible to drink coffee without sweet- ening substitute half a saccharine tablet. These saccharine tablets may be ob- tained of any drugg'st. One cup of weak tea at night without milk or sugar, hot water at any time and as often and as much as possible. Lemon juice or lime juice at any time, in hot or cold «apt (hot water is far better). Oys- @vs and clams in moderation—raw rather than cooked—and never cooked with milk or butter. On this regimen, Mrs. Baker’s weights and measurements decreased as follows: Monday, July 5, weight 205 pounds; July 12, 1971-2 pounds; July 19, 1931-2 pounds; July %, 190 pounds; Aug. 2, 1861-2 pounds; Aug. 9, 1821-2 pounds; Aug. 16, 178 pounds. This was the date of Mrs. Baker’s discharge. On this oc- casion. Mrs. Baker wrote me a letter from which I quote the following lines: “August 16, 1897. ‘My Dear Mrs. Ayer: I feel positively like a new woman. I 100k at the pho- tograph taken of me the day I began the treatment and I find the change al- most incredible. The experience has been one which I shall value all my life. It has taught me that not only my health and strength but also my looks and happiness are completely under my own control, I can now walk twenty-five or thirty blocks without fatigue, ride my wheel ten or fifteen miles every day and feel such renewed vivacity and energy that it seems im- possible for me to remain quiet any length of time, whereas but a few weeks ago it was an exertion for me to move.”’ When I discharged Mrs. Baker I told her that she now knew as much about the treatment for obesity as I did. She promised to continue the regimen and to let me hear from her. Months passed, and in the pressure of many other duties I had almost forgot- ten Mrs. Baker's offer to write me at DISCHARGED CURED. (From a photograph for the Sunday World.) the end of six months. A week ago a tall and noticeably handsome woman of graceful figure and carriage called at the Sunday World office. When she ap- proached me I did not at first recognize her. The Sunday World's obesity pa- tient, Mrs. Martha Baker, was reduded under the streatment while she was in my care. twenty-seven pounds. Without aid or assistance on my part she has continued the system and to-day is for- ty-six pounds lighter in weight than when she first came to me last summer, and certainly appears fifteen years younger. Mrs. Baker's offer to have her picture taken for the benefit of Sunday World readers was gladly accepted and Is here reproduced as the best evidence of the complete success of the obesity cure accomplished without medicine or drugs of any kind or description.

AS MISS LANE WAS. Jae A little over a year ago | received a letter from a correspondent, 00g known by the Sunday World readers as ‘“‘Mrs. Cornelia ' the time an absolute wreck, shendidete: and had been pronounced _ jncuraile by a number of well-known physicians. The young lady’ 3 es sy so far as the Sumday World readers have khownt, was ‘Miss oe Lame,” and thousands of the readers of the Sunday | - World will recollect the extraordinary cure which was effected by "means of hygienic care and treatment. Ve Migs Lane had been under the care of a number of physicians repute, who thad given her attention and treatinent to ich she did not seem to respond. Her condition was diagnosed chronic nervous dyspepsia in its most aggravated form. The 3 was in every case most unfavorable. | For three years she had suffered every night with a pwroxysm fi pain which lasted for several hours, and was so agonizing that if seemed as thous she might die in arty one. | I found in Catherine Lane the saddest young creature I have r gazed upon. Tall, slight as a wraith, emaciated to such a degree that it was painful even to look upon her. I told her of the offer I was author- ned te make her for the Sunday World, and I asked her if she would be willing to come to me. I told her candidly that I couid be certain of nothing in her case. Miss Lane decided tio accept the Sunday World's offer and the lay following my interview she was brought to New York to my house, where she remained during the six weeks of her treatment. _ My first effort for Miss Lane's retief was directed toward her breathing. It was impossible for her to draw a breath excepting & little quick gasp that seemed to come from her throat. I tried soe success to teach her to breathe from the diaphragm. It Was quite phain that she could not, so I sent for a cylinder of com- "pressed oxygen and, by the customary method of holding the nos- - trils elosed while she inhaled the oxygen through the mouth, I . succeeded in getting breaths from a little lowe¢ down. I discovered that there was an adhesion of the pleura on the side. AS SHE Is TO-DAY. About a week after Miss Lane began to inhale the oxygen she suddenly exclaimed during the treatment, ‘“‘Why, something has @iven way in my left side. I felt it. I can breathe now long, deep breaths.” From that hour ghe has never had any trouble in breathing, and within a few days the oxygen treatment was remitted, as there was no further occasion for it. Immediately after Miss Lane became my patient I seoured the services of the most skilful women electrician in New York, and she was given an electric bath every other day during the six weeks she was the Sunday World's protegee. It was understood that my patient was to take no medicine of any descrption. This promise was faithfully kept. Besides the electric bath, Miss Lane received Swedish massage. These treat- ments were given her on alternate days. Catherine Lane is 5 feet 7% inches in height. When she placed herself under my care she weighed 108 pounds. When she left me at the end of six weeks she weighed not quite 120 pounds. When she began her life of hygiene as my ward she could not walk ‘three yards without almost physical collapse. At the end of five weeks she walked twenty and thirty blocks a day, rode a bicycle and practised an hour with bells and clubs without a par-’ ticke of fatigue. Despite all predictions to the contrary, Catherine Lane has con- tinued to improve in strenmgth and heaith. Six weeks ago I received the following letter from Miss Lane: : Chicago, Jan. 1. Dear Mrs. Ayer: We shal] be in New York next week at the Grand (Opera- House. I long for an opportunity to see you again, and [| want also to exhibit myself, for if | am not a miracle then never was one effected. I have been playing eight times a week ali season, rehearsing besides, and I am never conacious of fatigue. I have never been so well in my Iife. | was very sensitive about my real identity being known while I was the Sunday World's patient. It seems to me now that I can express my gratitude better by letting the Sunday World readers know who the girl really is who owes so much to the great paper, so, if you like, you may tell the Sunday World readers that the Catherine Lane who was your patient, and who is always your grateful friend, is no other than yours affec- tionately, LILLIAN DAILY. 4116 Pennagrove street, Philadelphia, Pa.
