PARKER AND OTHERS WAITED TOO LONG. They Have Known Prof. Herron’s Heresy and Conduct for Eight Years, but Have Remained Si- lent and Passive. Special to the Post-Dispatch. TRYON, lo., is living here. She says neither fhe pro- fessor nor his ally, Miss Rand, has a better friend than she. Furthermore, Mrs. Herron intimates that Dr. Hillis of Brooklyn and the busyecitizens of Grinnell make her tired. Mrs. Herron had not heard of the storm that has been raised in Grinnell and at New York over her hsuband’s divorce when a Post-Dispatch reporter saw her today. For eight years Miss Rand had been in- timate in the Herron home, she said, just as if she were a sister to Dr. Herron or her- self. She declared that it was of no concern to her if Miss Rand and Dr. Herron mar- ried today or tomorrow, but if the marriage took place the public could draw its con- clusions as to the divorce and the preceding circumstances. * She refused to say anything regarding her ficient to support herself and children. When the dispatch from Grinnell was shown her Mrs. Herron smiled sarcastically and said that she appreciated the motives of Prof. Parker and the others, but they were rather late taking this matter up, that for eight years they had been aware of the facts upon which they based objections to Dr. Herron and yet all that time they had remained quiet until she made matters public. Her tone in speaking of the Grinnell peo- she wished to thank them for their in- tended kindness. She spoke of Dr. Parker as a venerable old man, who means well, but she thought his antagonism to Dr. Her- ron was largely due to political differences. Asked if she knew the other signers of the Grinnell protest, she said: “O, I have marketed with some of them.” These people, she continued, were anx- ious to down Dr. Herron politically and it was to this motive more than friendship for her that she ascribed their interest in the case. She refused to say whether or not she indorsed Dr. Herron’s religious and sociological views, but declared that they were the same he had been preaching for others who formerly approved them were silly to object to them now. “IT will say this,”’ sdid Mrs. Herron, ‘neither Dr. Herron nor Miss Rand has a better friend in the world than myself. I think Dr. Herron is exactly right in refus- ing to say a word for publication.”’ Mrs. Herron’s intention is to remain in Tryon.

Herron of Grinnell, | home, 9% Washington avenue, Brooklyn. Be- cause of his powers as a hypnotic Mr. Thur- ling has been invited to experiment in the eperating room at the Bushwick Hospital. For several months Thurling has been as- tonishing the residents of his neighborhood by his examples in hypnotism. In order that he might demonstrate his powers be- fore physicians, he invited Drs. Frank Clark and J. J. Dooling of the Bushwick Hospital and Dr. A. J. Walters and Dr. George Kuhn to be present. After putting his subject, William Smylie, through the usual tricks performed by pro- fessional hypnotists, Mr. Thurling said he would try one of the most difficult. At his request the four physicians exam- ined the pulse of the young man and agreed that it was 84. “SmyHe, you are suffering from fever,”’ said the hypnotist. “It's getting worse— now it’s at its worst.”’ The doctors made another examination and found that the pulse was throbbing away at a rate of 160 beats to the minute. They declared this a most wonderfu! per- After allowing his pulsation to continue for some time the heartbeats were The temperature of the subject was changed in the same way. To illustrate that he could command per- fectly the action of the heart and arteries, Mr. Thurling drove two hatpins through the fleshy part of the subject's arm and not a drop of blood came out, nor was there any sign of a wound after the pins were withdrawn. ‘‘Now, Smylie, I am giving you a bottle of the most delicious perfume,”’ declared Mr. Thurling, handing the subject a bottle (of strong ammonia. When it was opened those in the room were almost choked by the fumes, but the subject sniffed the odor and a smile of sat- isfaction passed over his face. After the exhibition Dr. Frank said: “This young man certainly has wonder- ful power. I have no doubt he has studied hypnotism for a long time, but he is gifted person illy. He has consented to go to Bushwick Hospital and try his gift in the operating room, where it may be possible to avold using anesthetics by throwing pa- tients into the hypnotic state.”’ Dr. Walters declared that the man’s power would undoubtedly as he ¢rew older.

The St. Louis and Pittsburg baseball teams play Saturday at Pittsburg. The fiooded grounds have been pumped dry by fire engines, and, with some slight excep- tions as to muddy deposits left by the flood, the grounds are in as good shape as ever. Tannehill, who went in for Pitts- burg in the last inning of the last game of the series played here, will do the box stunt for the Pirates, while Powell is scheduled to pitch for the Cardinals. The St. Louis team has had no practice since leaving St. Louis and will have none, ex- cept for the 15 minutes’ warmup before the contest Saturday. Pittsbure played Holy Ghost College Friday, and will g0 into Saturday’s game in much better form than the local team. It is no sure thing that the Pirates will win, however. Patsy Donovan's band has shown that it can play ball, even though it failed to get the usual Hot Springs trip. Pittsburg is known to have cherished fond hopes of the pennant, and figures that with almost its entire team of the season revious back in the game, while other ational League teams are minus several stars of 1900, there is nothing that can beat it. Yet championship aspirations and paper teams hav? before this resulted in disappointments, and something of _ the kind may happen the Pirates. At any rate, they will be wise over in the Smoky City if they watch the Donovanites very care- fully. St. Louis looks to be a good second in the League race, on form, SO far shown. If they come back with a scalp or two of the Pirates, League Park will not hold the fans who will juorney out to see the game with Cincinnati Wednesday. The American and National leagues had their first opposition seances at Philadel- phia Friday, the former being an easy win- ner in point of attendance. Boston and Phil- adelphia of the big League and Washing- ton and Philadelphia of the American were the attractions. Less than 10 people saw the game of the National League, while more than ten times that number watched the battle between the teams of the new or- ganization, Two other games in each league were played Friday and the total attend- ance at the National League games was 11.000 less than at the American League games. The latter are playing to 25c stands and the receipts of the two rivals are about evened up. Baltimore has reawakened under the in- fluence of _McGraw,. and _ 10,900 people watched the game between the Boston and) Oriole teams. at the Monument City. Ban Johnson, president of the American League, was present and started the ball rolling The game was fast and clean and_ the crowd that saw the Baltimores win by a score of 10 to 6 went away satisfied that the American League can play first-class baseball. There has been much curiosity as to what McGraw would make of his team of misfits. Mueggsy had about as variegated an assort- ment as it is possible to get together, and most of the critics of the country have con- fidently assigned: his aggregation a place close to eighth in the American League. | McGraw. however. can do wonders with | men, though he failed to show any ability in connection with the St. Lonis| team.

NEW YORK, April 27.—Three special trial races will be sailed between the cup de- fense yachts Constitution and Independ- ence, the dates of the matches being July 2, 4 and 6. This announcement has just been made by a representative of the Newport Yacht Rac- ing Association, and in the solution of the deadlock between the New York Yacht Club which threatened to make impossibie a race between the two rivals. The races will take place off New- port. A rule of the New York Yacht Club for- bidding a nonmember to sail in a race of that organization, excluded Thomas Law- son’s yacht from competing in the matches that were to decide the choosing of a chal- lenger to meet Sir Thomas Lipton’s Sham- rock II. Mr. Lawson, on the other hand, refused to comply with the requirements of the New York Yacht Club and decided to get around the rule by sailing his boat in | the New York yacht trial races under the name of a member of that club. The mat- ter was settled by the offer of the Newport Yacht Racing Association to present a cup |'for a contest between the rival vessels. The races are not under the New York Yacht Club, that club having taken no whatever respecting the trial matches. Mr. Duncan, the manager of the Consti- tution, and Mr. Lawson, the owner of the Independence, have signified their willing- | ness to race for the Newport Association's Desirable Weather.

The withdrawal of Garry Herrman leaves Allard Schech, John Schorr's colt, the favorite for the event. The draw for Sunday’s coursing events to be held at Pastime Park Sunday after- noon, was held Friday night at De Hodia- mont.

He Then Tried to Break It With a Rock and the Explosion Shook Fort Schuyler’s Walls. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 27.—Private John Arm- strong Roylfe, Eighteenth United States Artillery, was blown to fragments at Fort Schuyler by the explosion of ) pounds of dynamite. Sixty pounds of the poor fellow have been recovered in tiny-scraps, but the other 100 pounds of him are missing. Private Peter Haley and Simon Lewinsky, a dealer in old iron, of Brooklyn, were knocked un- conscious. The force of the explosion shook the fort to its foundation. Officers and enlisted men and their families poured out of the dwellings and barracks in terror. The ex- plosion was heard miles away and the earth trembled as if there had been an earthquake. The government had sold some 6 old smooth bore Rodman guns at the fort. Lewinsky decided to break them up and used dynamite. Roylfe and Haley were detailed to hel him. Lewinsky had a box containin pounds of dynamite. Roylfe brought aiong a pail of hot water to soften the explosive. He soaked a stick of the stuff in the pall and then tried to break it In two. It would not break. He picked up a rock and tried to break the stick that way. Just then Lewinsky saw him. He was 7 feet away, with Haley. ‘*‘Look out!”’ he shouted, ‘‘don’t do that!’ He was too late and the stick of dynamite exploded in the soldier’s hands and the de- Fame set off the entire 30 pounds in the Ox. Lewinsky and Haley were found uncon- scious on the ground, Roylfe was nowhere to be seen. A systematic search was begun over a radius of 300 yards. Bit by bit they picked up fragments of the soldier's body until they had pounds. No more could be found. Roylfe weighed 160 pounds. No fragment weighed more than five pounds. The fragments were carried to the fort by Roylfe’s former comrades and will be —e with military honors at Cypress ills. Roylfe was 35 years old, and entered the service in Boston. His relatives live in Ireland. Mothers will find Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup the best remedy for their children. MR.

The Council Sanitary Committee has gone at the garbage ‘ question jn an orderly, business-like fashion, Facts relating to the experience of other cities are being collected and will be turned to account in outlining a plan of procedure in St. Louis. The information already obtained is encouraging. There is nothing to prevent St. Louis doing as well as Cincinnati, Phila- delphia, Toronto and other American and European cities. It will not do to yield too readily to difficulties or admit that obstacles are insurmountable. In a work of this kind the public interest should be consulted first, last and all the time. The prefit to individuals must be subordinate to the health, cleanliness and good order of the city. What is needed in St. Louis is a system of garbage collec- tion which shall coilect the garbage. Expertence has demon- strated that under a loosely drawn contract the city is at the mercy of the contractor, who makes -his own conditions for his own profit. A reform is necessary which will make it impos- sible for the contractor to.collect or not to collect at his pleasure. —— i i A After the night banquet at the White House did the Cuban Commissioners dream a dream of liberty? Ae '-—- AS TO SAINTS. Ohicago co-eds. are exercised over the discovery of a seeming saint, in the person of Prof. Algie R. Crook, who has an- nounced that never in his life has he used ‘cuss words,”’ emoked, chewed, drank, or hugged or kissed a woman. Now, why does the saintly professor couple cursing with kissing and getting drunk with hugging? Has the intoxica- tion from whisky any connection with the intoxication of love? Can’t a man be a good lover unless he smokes, chews, uses profane language and looks upon the wine when it is red? Are not teetotalers affectionate and were not the Puritans ardent in their love affairs? Perhaps the professor is not such a paragon as to frighten the girls, after all. The true saint is not self-conscious and does hot brag of his saintliness. That he has betrayed this Nttle failing shows that there is still hope for Prof. Crooks, He may yet lead a fair co-ed. to the altar and prove himself @ mere man. = = * — a The three mayors—Johnson, Harrison and Wells—will vie ‘with each other as municipal managers, and should they meet at the Iroquois Club they may have something interesting to say.

Mr. Sage says: “The prices of most railroad stocks are en- tirely too high. There will come, of necessity, a big crash, un- less the people come to their senses and get outin time.” He thinks it is the wildest market since 1807. Probably no man is better qualified to speak on this subject. Russell Sage is a veteran speculator, uniformly successful and noted for his temperate views on finance. It is time to restore sanity. There is iver in the bioui of the market and rest and quiet are much needed. The consequences of a crash at this time will be incaleulably gerious. The country is in a sound condition in all respects, and everything but this crazy speculative movement points to a period of healthy prosperity. This should not be endangered by reckless booming. Hill, Gates and the other big fish seem to have got out. The small fry should keep out, at least un- ‘$il the excitement subsides. Se i - - : A Post-Dispatch special announces the invention of the tele- ‘graphone, which receives a telephone message and keeps it until the one for whom it is intended is ready to listen to it. ‘The time of both the sender and receiver is thus economized., Telephonic and telegraphic improvements will be an interest- ‘gng feature of the World's Fair. oe ——/ | —@ THOUGHT MARK HANNA WAS PRESIDENT In a Pennsylvania town a judge refused naturalization to a ‘foreigner because, in answer to the question, ‘‘Who is Presi- dent of the United States?” the applicant replied, “Mark Hanna.” But the would-be American produced a copy of a newspa- per containing this editorial] paragraph, “Notwithstanding the claim of Republicans Mark Hanna is President,” whereupon the judge decided that he had been misled and granted his petition. The man might have been a humorist. At any rate it is mot necessary to think he was ignorant ora fool. Whether the President of the United States is under William ‘McKinley's hat or Mark Hanna's is a question which has oc- cupied the philosophic attention of thoughtful observers. The Post-Dispatch firmly believes that the present tenant of the White House is the President, but it cannot be denied that the _Benator from Chio is not without great influence. It is just possible that he and his business associates have had their ‘ghare in shaping the policy of this most business-like adminis- tration. There's millions in it. - ee The beet sugar people would’rather see Cuba free than Cu- ‘ban sugar free. JOINT OWNERSHIP OF CARS. A Joint ownership of ali freight cars is proposed by the rail- road companies in order to expedite traffic and increase the amount of service. - The companies have been brought to this by the reduction in the average daily service of cars. This has fallen from 90 the freight cars are all pooled and reduced to a single owner- ship locomotive and passenger coaches will follow. How long before roadbeds and all other property go the same way? In other words, will not “ community of ownership” of se- eurities result in the exchange of securities of individual roads for those of a consolidated company? This may appear improbable if not impossible. But the movement is in that direction, and this proposed common own- ership of cars is merely an item of a general program. — —_—=— The gorgeous “Imperial” palace car for the President was sidetracked on account of its alarming name, and now a Post- Dispatch special from New Orleans says that the crowns be- longing to the electric display to be made in honor of Mr. Mc- Kinley’s visit will be omitted lest they should be misunder- stood. The President’s imperial power covers only our re- cently acquired islands and it must not be celebrated in the United States. ——— = = 7-~ Fr NEW ST. LOUIS COMING. The planning vf a monster wholesale house covering a block of ground on Washington avenue, between Twentieth and Twenty-first streets, is one of several business undertakings which are directly traceable to the World’s Fair. The signifi- cance of this building, apart from the evidence of expanding business and confidence in the future of St. Louis, is the ex- tension of the new wholesale district. It marks a westward boundary undreamt of a few years ago. St. Louis has never been a boom town and we do not antic- ipate that it will be one in the ordinary -meaning of the phrase; even under the stimulus of World's Fair activity. But St. Louis will prosper. The World’s Fair will attract a vast amount of capital, brains and energy to the city and its activi- ties in trade and manufacture will be greatly increased. The future of St. Louis is assured. Its growth will be phe- nomena! within the next three years. What we need now is to lay the foundations for a beautiful and healthful new St. Louis. We want a city whose attractions and comfort will impress the people who come to St. Louis as much as its business opportunities. Every dollar well invested in public improvements will bring rich returns. Push the charter amendments. == —_" we. The Baltimore Republicans have gone to work to educate the negroes in night schools—not that the negroes may be educated, but that they may get enough education to vote and help to “lick the boots off the Democratic party.” Though this may not be a commendable motive, the negroes will get the educa- tion. Keep the Baltimore night schools open. = = —=— ww A Pittsburg cempany builds nine locomotives in six months for £1378. A British company’s lowest bid on the same work is £1514 and nine months’ time is asked. Thus it is that the Pittsburg company will build nine locomotives for Calcutta.

In fact. when the road was ovened trains were not allowed to carry passengers at all. About 220 feet to the mile is the maximum grade of the mountain railways of this country. A steeper road is neither profitable nor safe. The Calumet Branch ascends 408 feet to the mile, and if they carried passengers the gross earnings would not pay for the people they would kill. If the reader can imagine himself in a bucket going down a well after the rope has parted he can form a very good idea of the action of a locomotive let loose on a four hundred and eight foot grade. George Russ let the 409 get awav from him one day. and from a dead standstill she was able to get up speed enough to throw her from the track before she passed the sec- ond telegraph pole. They found her at the bottom of a deen gulch and drew her mangled remains up with blocks and falls and locomotives. More than one engineer, after making his maiden trip over the Cal- umet Branch. has asked for a change. The writer of this sketch belonged to that class. Old ‘“King’’ Cole kept the run a whole summer and never had an accident. The Branch was always closed if winter the same as a bathing resort. When sprin came again and the old man was call for the Calumet he refused to sign the book. Of course there was not a man on the dl- vision who was not willing to face death, but there were other runs, longer, to be sure. but more desirable. Whenever a new man was employed from an eastern road—‘‘prearie sailors’’ we used to call them—the Calumet run was offered him. ‘‘Here's a short run.’ De Remer, the foreman, would say: ‘‘ten miles, one trip a day, pays $4. You can go up in an hour and come down’’—then the foreman would suppress a grin and glance about for ex- pert testimony: “How fast can he come down. Cole?’ ‘Fast as he wants to.”’ says the old man, sliding off the “‘loafing bench.” “VYo' in bie luck if vo’ don't come down in a woden ovahcoat. sah.’’ says Mclvor, oiling the 270. MclIvor always had that playful way with strangers. Mr. Lee. the traveling engineer, would go out with the new man the first day, and the next dav the new man would go out alone—looking for a railroad that was not so high at the other end. Meclvor took a cruel delight In cnuneg the tenderfeet who tried the steep run an found it too swift, and the master me- chanic determined to take it out of the Virginia gentleman and ordered him out on the idtamaat. Mclvor went ay | like a little soldier, but when they came for him the second day he refused to sign the book. “What's the matter with this run?’ de- manded the master mechanic. “Well, there’s nothin’ the mattah with the run, Mistah Jones, only it’s that in- fu’nal pu’pdindiculah I can't find a place to set my dinnah pail.” It began to look as though they would have to promote a reckless fireman to get an engineer for the Calumet Branch, when Abe Leonard came, unexpectedly, to the company's rescue. ‘‘Hardluck’’ Leonard, as he was called, had worked less than six months in two whole years. He had gotten lost in the mountains while deer-hunting ‘and had his feet severely frozen. Before he was able to work he allowed himself to get hemmed in in the hallelujah corner of a negro revival in Leadville. A dusky dam- sel. roaring with rapture, tipped the stove over, set the church on fire, and Leonard got ‘burned. When he had been discharged from_ the hospital at Salida he went down to Den- ver to get a clearance from Chief Surgeon O'Connor in order to collect his accident in- surance. Leonard went into a drugstore to stop his thirst, the soda fountain blew up and Hardluck went out through the roof and then back to the hospital. It was after his fall with the soda foun- tain that Leonard alarmed the master me- chanic by asking for the Calumet run. ‘“‘He’s cou’tin’ death,’ said MclIvor; and for once he had no advice or discourage- ment to offer. He had been over the road. = “Oh, Abe! why do you take that run? asked Mrs. Leonard, with blanched face. “It's safer than Sunday-school, said Leonard. glancing at his hand that had been caught in the burning church. “Gi’me the death run an’ the all-night saloon, but keep me away from camp- meetin’ and so@y-fountains. Mrs. Leonard wi the tears from her tired eyes and Abe went 7 the road with his pilot fourteen inches higher than his tank and a gage-cock in the top of his ler. Orne engineer was the least bit nervous the first day, but when his associates un- dertook to poke fun at him he declared that he had seen worse things than the Calumet run. The air is delightful up there, eight or ten thousand feet above the sea, and Leonard continued to ¥° up and down the hill until the middle of the sum- mer without an acident.

WASHINGTON, April 27.—A complete Fapprochement between the governments of. Austria and Mexico has been brought about and as a result each country is about to send a minister to the other.

A bill assed the Mexican Congress reciting the act of a rapprochement and providing for & minister to Austria at a salary of $15,000 annually.

For many years there has been no diplomatic intercourse between Mexico and her sister republics on the southern continent, as there was little commerce between them and few political uestions requiring diplomatic representa- tions. Recently, however, Argentina made a friendly move by accrediting a minis- ter to both Washington and to Mexico City and Uruguay has taken similar ac- tion, The selection of Mexico City as the — for holding the congress of American epublics has had a further influence in inducing Mexico to extend her relations with southern countries. As a result of this sentiment a minis- ter to Argentina is now named and one to prusuay probably will be appointed before ong.

MORE INFORMATION WANTED Tenth Ward Improvement Association Favors Municipal Ownership, but Not of Ed Butler’s Plant. The Council committee on sanitary af- fairs, at its meeting Friday afternoon, de- cided to defer action upon the suggestions contained in Mayor Wells’ message until further information could be obtained upon the subject of municipal ownership of gar- bage plants. Health Commissioner Dr. M. C. Starvloff was present at the meeting, on the invita- tion of Chairman Sheehan. The latter said to the Post-Dispatch Saturday: “We decided to do nothing until addi- tional information could be collected from other cities regarding the removal and re- duction of garbage. Dr. Starkloff was pres- ent and gave us the benefit of his advice, and he Was requested to write the health departments of other cities for the purpose of securing the desired information. “The committee has no disposition except to serve the city’s best interests, and if the purchase by the city of the garbage reduc- tion plant is found to be feasible and of advantage to the city, 1t will certainly be recommended. As soon as the necessary information is secured, the committee’ will be called to meet again and its report will be pre- pared.”’ At the meeting of the Tenth Ward Im- provement Association Friday night at Chippewa Hall, corner of Chippewa street and Oregon avenue; a resolution, offered by H. C. Koenig, declaring for municipal own- ership of the garbage reduction plant was passed, . The South Side plant of the St. Louis Sanitary Co. is located in the Tenth ward, and the Koenig resolution provides further that the reduction plant, to be owned by the city, shall be located elsewhere. and, in fact, not in anv thickly populated sec- tion of the city. For this reason it opposes the purchase by the city of the present plant. A commitee, composed of Mr. Koenig, J. F.. Dauering, Cc. Brinkof, Edwin Rosen- thal and Louis Padberg was appointed to present the resolutions to Mayor Wells, the City Council. House of Delegates and the Board of Public Improvements. A suggestion that a copy be also pre- sented to Health Commissioner Starkloff was abandoned, on the advice of Judge Zimmerman, who thought it might arouse opposition to the measure.

The saloon of Redmond & Bradshaw at 217 North Compton avenue is said to have been t y of Mark Gumberts. It was concerning this saloon last Wednesday night that Gumberts had trouble with M. G. Cooney of 3202 Olive street, who refused to sign a petition for Gumberts to obtain a renewal of his license for the place. Commissioner Seibert heard evidence Fri- day against James Sanford of 214 Poplar street; J. A. Willmers, 1933 Olive street, and William C. Zimmermann, 1024 Chouteay ave- nue. They conduct salocns at the numbers given, and it was alleged that they con- ducted improper winerooms in connection. Willmers and Zimmenmann were instructed that their premises did not meet the require. ments of the law and they must remove certain objectionable features. Sanford's case was taken under advisement. Mr. Seibert announced that after July 3 no more state licenses would be issued in the city. These licenses are held mainly by druggists and grocers, who are authorized to sell in gallon quantities. This law has been repealed and liquor can be sold only : quencies of three gallons and over after uly TURNED HOSE ON MR. BALL The Loudest Footgear Had the Call and Tame Designs Didn’t Go at All. Young men and women friends of Albert Ball, newly married, «f 4549 Cook avenue, as a birthday remembrance, presented him this week with 15 pairs of the ‘‘ioudest’’ socks they could find thn the market. They called it a ‘‘sock shower.”’ BY A POST-DISPATCH POET. Young men and merry maidens (Who love the lively stocking) Conceived a birthday present That some may think quite shocking; In fact, they got together all And turned the hose on Mr. Ball. Beneath a noisy shower Of socks the most caloric, They buried him so deeply That he (alas, poor Yorick!) Could make no protest, for his vox Was drowned by more vuciferous socks' Ah, well! there's compensation; For he will have this season— When to the park he goeth— For joy sufficient reason: He'll be the only man: out there With hose as loud as ladies’ wear!

Mrs. Hanley was awakened by the smoke | pouring into the room and by the scurrying of feet on the porch at the rear. She called to Mrs. Anderson, who was awake in an instant.

OMAHA, Neb., April 27.—The state rested in the Callahan case last night and the de- fense put on its first witnesses this morn- ing. As anticipated, an alibi was offered to Show that the accused could have had no participation in the kidnaping of Eddie Cudahy. Charles McDonald, a neighbor of Calla- han, related a conversation he had had with the defendant on the afternoon of the kidnaping, Dec. 19. At the moment the ab- duction was taking place McDonald said he sat on the porch in company with Cal- lahan at Mrs. Kelly’s house, the defendant's boarding place. McDonald said he-and Callahan were to- gether between the hours of 3:30. and 5 On cross-examination McDonald said he remembered the date because it was the 2th birthday of his son. He ad- mitted, however, that he had recently told two detectives that he was not quite sure whether it was Dec. 19 or on the day or second day following. Mamie McDonald, the Httle daughter of the preceding witness, prov an unfor- tunate witness for the defense. She said she remembered a man named Johnson who often visited Callahan and had heard it whispered that he was the notorious Pat Crowe. Frank Hensman, a paper carrier, testified to having seen Callahan dafly at Mrs. Kel- ly’s house as he made his rounds. He de- livered hisfpapers between 3:30 and 5 p. m., and had aQ”impression that he saw Calla- han at the house on Dec. 19. He felt some doubt, however, as to the exact date. James Gillan, another carrier, remem- bered seeing Callahan spending his time in Henry Orff’s saloon when he was supposed to be absent on his kidnaping mission. He aiso was not positive as to the date. The star, witness of the defense, Mrs. Kelly, sister to Callahan, will be put on the stand this afternoon. She is expected to testify that Callahan om the afternoon of the kidnaping at ome. FUNSTON §=©WAS SURPRISED Says He Did Not Hope That He Would Be Made a General in the Regular Army. IOLA, Kan., April 27.—Brigadier-General Funston, writing to a fellow townsman under date of Feb. 26, a month before the capture of Aguinaldo, says he did not ex- pect appointment in the regular army. He says: “Under the operation of the law I must be mustered out of the service July 1. as that is the last day of the volunteer army and from that time all of the work will be turned over to the regulars. I was not disappointed that | was not given any- thing in the reorganization of the regular army, as I had no expectations.

From the Mirror, Manchester, N. H Rheumatism is one of the most pain- ful of the many troubles which afflict mankind. In its mildest form the aches and stiffness are enough to seriously dis- tract the mind and interfere both comfort and with work, and, as it grows worse—for it never will cure itself and it never stands still—it becomes more and more painful, the stiffness spreads frequently, the sufferer is reduced to @ helpless condition—a physical wreck, tortured when still and unable to move without agony. It is a disease w cannot with safety be neglected. But it can be cured if a proper course of treatment is taken. The real cause of rheumatism is the presence of acid in the blood, and the only cure is to purify, nourish and strengthen this vital If this is accomplished the pains and the stiffness will vanish and new life and vigor will come. The best specific yet discovered for this purpose is Dr. Will- iams’ Pink Pills for Pale People and the number of cures they have effected in cases of this dreadful disease is wonder- ful. Mrs. D. Loveland of No. 133 West Hancock street, Manchester, N. H., was cured of a severe attack of rheuma- tism by the use of this remedy. She Says: “Several years ago one of my knees was intered by a fall. About the first of June, 1897, rheumatism set in and at last got so bad that I could not bend my knee. It was very painful and I was unable to move about. I tried various remedies, but not one of them relieved me in any way. “In the latter part of August, nearly three months after the pain and stiffness began, a friend, Mrs. Rothwell of Ever- ett, Mass., told me of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. I willingly gave them a trial and experienced relief m a few days. I continued until I had taken three boxes and was able to bend the knee and go up and down stairs without difficulty. I have since taken the pills a number of times for other troubles and always with good results. eur “I have recommended Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People many times. I have not learned with what effect they were taken, excepting in the case of two of my relativgs and a age woman liv- ing in my family, each of whom was greatly benefited. I feel that I cannot say too much in favor of the pills. Donal MRS. S. D. LOVELAND. Subscribed and sworn to before me this 27th day of February, 1901. JOHN G. LANE, [Seal] Notary Public. All the elements: necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves are contained, in a con- densed form, in Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities and all forms of weakness. They build up the blood The. vahie af’ Hil | and restore the glow of health to ese ‘and sallow cheeks.
