HANNA 1S. NOT ON THE SHEL Renewal of the Talk of His Presidential Candidacy. ACTIVE IN LABOR MATTERS REGARDED AS INDICATION OF DE- SIRE FOR NOMINATION. Friends Make the Statement That He Now Has Enough Delegates to Make a Strong Showing. Post-Dispatch Burean, 13845 Pennsylvania Avenue. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 15.—There has been a revival this week of the gossip con- cerning Senator Hanna's candidacy for the presidency. It is stated that the senator already has enough delegates to oppose Roosevelt in 1904. The senator's recent activity in labor matters has been pointed out as an indica- tion of his desire for the nomination. Sen- ator Hanna himself says nothing publicly concerning these rumors. Privately he tells his friends that his knee is constantly getting worse and, even if he did have presidential aspirations, he doubts if his health would permit him to make a canvass. If McKinley had lived Senator Hanna would have entered the field as a candidate in 19%. He feels greatly complimented by the constant recurrence of his name at the t of the lists of possible candidates. ‘Menator Hanna is growing rapidly as a ublic man. He has developed into one of he strongest debators in the Senate. The dispotsition of the Senate toward him has changed. When he came, the old sena- tors were inclined to resent his presence as that of a man who had no claims on the lace except those of a political boss. Hanne gritted his teeth and made his fight and he has today won the respect of all his coll ues. Senator Hanna has no particular enthues- jasm for President Roosevelt and his ad- ministration. His position is that of a man who is aeitting quiet and waiting for events to work themselves out. He has said sever- al times that he would like to see Roosevelt do well, and that he would help him when- ever he could. President Roosevelt is anxious about Hanna, and nearly every week has scme- thing printed in one of his personal organs to show that the best relations exist be- tween him and the senator. So far as 1904 is concerned, Hanna will be for Roosevelt if Roosevelt is the right man to nominate. There are a great many shrewd politicians in Washington who are of the opinion that Roosevelt will really be the unanimous choice of the next Republican convention, or that his tame will not be mentioned in that convention. A hundred columns could be filled with speculations showt why Roosevelt will n ated or why won't be. The only that Roosevelt at the present time candidate for the nomination n the minds of the masses of the Hiican party. Whether he holds that position depends on himself. ENGLISHMAN MET THE BOERS Dr. Clark, Leader of Peace Party in Parliament, Dined With Envoys in Chicago. CHICAGO, March 15.—Dr. F. B. Clark, a member of the English parilament and a strong peace party man, who is in Chicago supposedly on business and the Boer En- vyoys, C. H. Wessels, A. D. W. Wolmarans and Montague White, met at a small dinner given by Peter Van Vlissingen in a private room at the Chicago Athletic Club. The eyvoys arrived in Chicago from Washington ge gf Dr. Clark reached here Thursday. Dr. Clark's visit, with the motive therefor, is veiled in myatery and it ) er nst his wishes that his presence the city this e became known to anyone ou e of the officers of the Trans- I e. Dr. Clark is known to be one of the ngest opponents the English war part today.

STAYED AWAY FROM LEVEE “BY GATLING, NO,” SAID THE FORMER GOVERNOR. Noted Texan Politician Was Invited to Court Affair by Mr. Choate, but Costume Was Too Much for Him. “By Gatlings, no knee breecaes for me!” sald «x-Gov. James 8. Hogg of Texas as he emphatically seribbled his signature to a letter of regret stating that he found him- self unable to attend King Edward's levee on Thursday, a week ago, at St. James’ Palace, London. “By Gatling!’ is a favorite expression with the rotund ex-governor, and he always rumbles it out when he is very much in earnest. Ex-Gov. Hogg is not the first American tO uphold the dress of his country as Op- posed to the furbeloWs of European fashion. benjamin Franklin wore an at the French court and won greater popu- larity thereby than any man that ever rep- resented this country in France. Lx-Gov. Hogg is, however, the first man to strikes out for the especial dignity of American ‘‘pants.”’ Several weeks ago Mr. Hogg arrived in London for the purpose of engineering a $29,000,000 ofl syndicate to develop his oil fields, near Beaumont, Tex. A warm friendship has lenge existed be- tween the Texas politician and Ambassador Joseph Choate, who represents the United States. at the Court of St. James. Nature has endowed Mr. Choate with a courtiy figure and long experience as given him the chronic sentiments of a dip- lomat, Mr. Choate has no objection to knee breeches. The scruples of Mr. Hogg as a Texan and a popular character agaipst the sma!) clothes and sword of court etiquette were unknown to Mr. Choate. In a happy moment, the Gov. Hogeg's arrival in f.ondon, Mr. Choate dictated an informal note to his eee: It is said to have read some- thirg like this: “Dear Governor—Can you arrange to g to a court shindig, otherwise levee, March 6? It will be held at St. James’ Palace and it may be something that you would like to cast your eye on. -A good many people with handles to their names will be there, and as Texas is a long way off I think that you can safely attend. Come early and will open a bottle of the vregula- tion size of the ‘Jim Hoge’ quart.”’ “By ganny,’’ smiled the Texas ido: he read this note. Forthwith he sat down in the bi chair in the Hotel Cecil and tossed w+‘ following to his friend and social gpons°r, Joseph Choate: “Dear Choate—I'm on. etc. The schedule Kdward's Mr. Hogg: “Got your knee breeches vet, gove-snor?”’ ‘‘Knee breecnes!'’ roared Mr. Hogs, “have you been readin’ Shakspeare:”’ Then the Former Governor Balked. Then Mr. Choute kindly and as painlessly as possible explained to his friend Hogg that knee-breeches, fancy gaiters, a long- tailed velvet cout and a sword are among the requirements of court etiquette. Th: man who aspires to kiss the hand of Eng- land's King must attire himself in all these things. ‘“Choate,’’ said Mr. Hogg, solemnly, “I’m off. Plain American pants will beat knee- breeches and give ‘em any odds. I weigh 300 pounds and there isn’t a dressmaker— pshaw, I mean tailor—in London that would risk his reputation making knee-breeches look nice on me.”’ Mr. Choate argued, mained firm. “Pretty figger I'd cut in those gewgaws,”"’ he insisted strenuously.

The ex-governor is by no means illiterate, but either by désign or through careless- ness he sprinkles his conversation with quaint phrases and many amusing slips of grammar. In 1894 Hogg and some of the state offi- Clals took a grand swing around the circle to om, Texas. They went to New York and were given a dinner at the Waldorf. Up to that time ogg had never worn a suit of evening clothes. He was told he must put some on that night and finally consented. (It may be remarked in pass- ing that he dresses for dinner every night now). .There was a great scurrying around the town, and finally a dress suit ihat would fit him was found, and Mr. Hogg put it on and went to dinner. It was on this trip that Roswell P. Flower took him to a German club for luncheon. “Will you have a glass of wine?’’ asked Mr. Flower. ‘No,”* shouted Hogg, 80 every German in —e room could hear, “Beer is good enough or me.”’ Hoge Loves His Home and Family. Reaching down into the cavernous depths of an inside coat pocket, ex-Gov. Hogg is wont to pull out four photographs and hold them spread out fan-like before him. ‘"hat's what makes me love my home,” he says as he gazes at them admiringly. They are the p.ctures of his daughter and threa sons. ‘That’s a hand that nobody can beat,”’ he adds. “J suppose you've heard the sto- ries about the names I gave my children. Now the truth of the matter is that my girl's name is Ima Hogg. The boys all have rational names—Tiom, Mike and Will. “Ima was named by her mother. Mfrs.

Being a portly man, Mr. Hogg loves phy- sical repose. The soft clip-clip of the bar- ber’s shears lulled him fnto fatal slumber. As the clipping ceased he roused himself and gazed dreamily into the mirror. He beheld a fat Frenchman with whiskers for all the world like Gen. Boulanger’s or Louls Philippe’s. ‘Huh! I. had no idea that barber was so fat,’’ he murmured. He moved. The fat Frenchman moved, aked beard and the turned up waxed whiskers moved. With a shriek the ex-governor sat bolt upright and the fat Frenchman did like- wise. In fact, he was the fat Frenchman. “Take ‘em oif; take ‘em off, quick! Some- body from Texas might come along,” he said, as he sank back in the chair. The barber shrugged,his shoulders.

PENSIO JAMES WEAVER HAD SERVED ON BOTH SIDES. WOUNDED IN SOUTHERN ARMY. Got a Pension for It on Claim That He Had Received It While Fighting for Uncle Sam. NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 15.—James Weaver, who lives in the country near Old Hickory, was. arraigned before United States commissioner on a charge of violat- ing the pension laws. He pleaded guilty to the charge against him and was bound over to the federal court. Tha case is quite an interesting one. Weaver served something like three years during the civil war as a soldier in the ,of the war. little | | His ithe pension office a second time and later ‘a third time, but failed to get it through. a beardiess | |aliowed several | had Confederate army. At the end of that time it is claimed that he deserted. He at least left the Confederate army and joined the Union forces, serving there until the close At any rate, he served in both armies, as his plea at the hearing indi- cates. After the war was over he applied for a pension on the ground that he had con- tracted rheumatism while in the United States army. The claim was disallowed. attorney brought the matter before a pension on been wounded anion army. This claim was years ago, and he has for ten vears or more been drawing a pension. A special pension examiner in some way got an inkling that the case was not all It appeared tc be, and looked very closely in- | to the matter. He discovered, according to the evidence he had, that Weaver received the wound while serving in the Confederate army, and was drawing the pension on the ground that he had received it while in the Union army. Under the statutes so long a time elapsed that he could not be prcese- cuted for fraudulently obtaining a pension, It was found, however, that-.a pensioner has to make a certain affidavit every quarter when pension» money is paid, and he was charged with making a false affidavit. He was arrested at his home by Deputy United States Marshal T. G. Brown and brought here for trial. The final outcome of the case will be awaited with interest. Weaver pleaded guilty to the charge, stating that he had served in both armies, and that he was drawing the pension for a wound received while serving the Confederacy. The case is unusual, and it is difficult to tell what will be done with him. It is, of course, a settled fact that he will receive no more pension money from Uncle Sam. made a claim for that he had then ground in the 1 He the while SHIP SUBSIDY NOT NEEDED, Minority Report of Commerce Commit- tee Calls It Class Legislation.

From Judge Robinson's remarks these ay ee +. ae Refusal of the Writ Asked by St. Louis and the Board of — in Interviews With the Post-Dispatch. On Feb. 19, 1902, former Judge R. E. Rombauer, acting for the St. Louts School Board, and City Councelor Charles W. Bates, acting for the city of 8t. Louls, ap- peared before the Missour! Supreme Court at Jefferson City and presented an ap- plication for a writ of mandamus to compel the state _ borad | of equalization to assess the property of the public corporations of Missouri at its full value, as re- ' The petition recited that the present rate of assessment fixed by the board is one-third of the property's total worth, or 33 1-3 per cent. The court, with all the members save Chief Justice Burgess present, took the application under consideration and, following an executive session which lasted about 30 minutes, handed down a decision, simply stating, ‘‘The writ ‘s dented.” Judge W. N. Robinson is the only member of the court who would consent to make even a partial explanation of the court's reasons for so doing. conchisions are drawn: 1. That the petition for a writ of mandamus was referred to Judge William C. Marshall, who explatned its contents to the members of the court. A discussion participated in by Judges Gantt, Marshall and others followed, during which the decision was reached that the state board of equalization was an elective body acting under authority of the legislature, that it had made assess- ments as required by law and that no writ would apply against its members. 8. That the court could not attempt to go behind the published proceedings of the board and ascertain for itself whether the law was betng obeyed. From a Post-Dispatch Staff Correspondent. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., March 12.—The decision of the Missouri Supreme Court de- nying the writ of mandamus sought by the taxpayers of St. Louis, to compel the State Board of Equalization to fix property val- ues as the law directs, has strengthened the determination of the board to continue to allow the great franchise-holding cor- porations to escape taxation on millions of dollars. The attitude of the board members would indicate that the Supreme Court's ruling was a logical expectation. Judge Rombauer has characterized the ruling as ‘‘unprecedented,” and says that by refusing to grant an alternative writ the court has reversed itself completely. A week before the petition was filed Ed- gar R. Rombauer, son of Judge Rombauer who acted in behalf of the St. Louis school board, met Sam B. Cook, secretary of state, Mr. Rombauer, on as asked whether Mr. Cook made a prediction to him at that time as to what the court would do with the writ, said: “Mr. Cook did say something to me on the subject. He told me that my fathel! was on the wrong track in presenting this writ; that it wouldn't be issued, because the court had as a matter of fact disposed of the question, or words to that effect.’’ Mr. Cook was asked by the Post-Dispatch regarding this conversation, and stated most emphatically that he did not recall having made any such remark to Judge Rombauer’s son. Said He Had An Informal] Ttalk. Mr. Cook did say, however, that he had talked over .property assessments, or the rules of the state board of equalization, with Judge James B. Gantt of the supreme court. ‘It was only. an informal talk,”’ Mr. Cook said, ‘‘and took place some time ago.’ The Post-Dispatch interviewed all the members of the supreme court. Judicial etiquette or propriety is the barrier be- tween them and the public on this subject. Three of the judges declared that the Rom- bauer petition was in no sense different from hundreds of others that are presented to them for consideration, The equalization board will meet in April to assess the property values of 30 Missouri corporations, whose aggregate worth is $360,000, On this sum they will proceed, if the present equalization rd scale is followed, to levy an assessment of about one-third, or on the basis of 331-8 per cent, which is the uniform rate, they contend, prevailing in the state. St. Louls home owners pay 70 per cent on their pro a4 The Bt, uis Transit Co., worth $50, 1,000, is assessed at only $160,000, 00v. Of the amount on which assessments wers levied last year the board decided that the franchise value of ail the cor- porations was $25,193,031. The physical val- uation was fixed at about $85,000,000. Judge Rombauer says that in 8t. Louls the property of public service corporations is worth $100,900,000. The state board levies an assessment of $26,000, 000. In consequence the municipal and school treasuries of St. Louis suffer a licss of over $200,000 in revenue every year. Gov. Dockery and Sam Cook Talk. Gov. A. M. Dockery Its the president of the Board of Equalization. In response to ques- tions put by the Post-Dispatch, he said: “IT won't cross a bridge until I come to it. I do not know what the State Board of Equalization will do or intends to do, nor can I say what my intentions are. ‘The matter of assessing franchises Is a long way off. When it comes up I will be ready to act. ‘I shall try to perform my duty as best I know how. I have nothing to say about the Supreme Court decision, except this, that I welcomed the institution of man- damus proceedings, because to try the case would Save disposed of the question ef- fectually.’”’ Secretary of State Sam B. Cook, who itis vice-president of the Board of Equalization, had much to do with fixing the values of public service property at the 1901 session of the board. To the Post-Dispatch he stated that he did not see any good reason for departing from the rule already -laid down = the board, viz.: the assessment of public service property on the basis of $344 per cent, or one-third of its total value, He emphasized his former declaration that this is the basis prevailing throughout the state and that because St. Loulse, Kansas City or Bt. Joe is obliged to pay more Is no reason why the state board should raise the rate of assessment. Mr. Cook was asked about the statement of Edgar R. Rombauer to the effect that he (Cook) had told him a week before the Supreme Court rendered Its decision on the mandamus case, or before the issue was presented, that his father was on the “wrong track;"’ that the Supreme Court ap- rroved the assessments made by the State Board of Equalization. “ft do not remember having used that language,’ he replied. “In fact, I know I did not say that or an y words to that ef- fect or anything which could be so con- strued. “T talked over this whole assessment question with voung Mr. Rombauer, but I feel sure we did not discuss the probable view which the court might take of the case.”’ “You did not mention the Supreme Court at all. then, at any time during the con- versa‘ion?’’ Certainly not. At the same time I do not think that young Mr. Rombauer meant to misrepresent me. He simply misunderstood what I did say.” “Was the action of the Supreme Court a a ay to you?” “Well, I do not know whether te gay yes or no to that question. It wou have pleased me ff the court had granted the alternative writ, because I wanted to see this cquestion settied. I am sure all the members of the board of equalization want- ea the court to pass on it.” ‘discharge of my sessing public service co rati his or their judgment all right?’ Not that I know of. I remember that some time ago I talked over this question informally with Judge Gantt. The conver- sation was a purely personal one, and I [aid hone talked. to Judge Gantt as @ not been « supreme Court,’ . ee ee “Do you recall what you said about franchise assessme : , response?" ments, and Judge Gantt'’s “The matter was discussed, as I have said, In a general way. Ido not know just what reply Judge Gantt made or just what his views were on the subject, and I would not attempt to quote him.” Will the board of equalization continue to asSess the property of public corporations at only one-thi of its value?’ “T cannot say what the board will do. As for myself, I do not see how we can change the rule. We know that in the state is assessed at onl and I do not believe we can di “Is there any assessor in an of the state whose record chews: thet be assesses property on a basis of 881-8 per cent, or 30 per cent?” “No, but I know that it done. would be very easy to prove this since assessors would admit the rate of prevailing in their respective coun ‘Does it strike you as pecullar, Mr. that the Supreme Court is the pro bunal for the taxpayer aoe pro be overassessed, but not the tri secure the increase of an assessment?” Mr. Cook smiled. ‘T am not a lawyer,” he said. “ what the Supreme Court has done, will pave to consult the members of court. “There is ample opportunity to test rights of the equalization board tn a now pending in the .cirouit court at Louts. The proceedings were institu the Suburban ratlroad to prevent the collee- tion of taxes levied against the be- cause, it is claimed, the plaintiff’s-property was assessed on a basis of 40 per cent.

The 6ub- urban was assessed on that basis two te ago. The company refused to pay ay simply deci to let t and this vear we the assessment stand. Another Member of the Board. State Treasurer R. P. Williams feels that the criticium of the board of equalization for not levying a higher assessment on public service proper is not only unwar- ranted, but unjust. He said: “IT am under no obligation to any ation or individual when it comes te duty. My consctence is my guide. I know I can say as ay the other members of the board. W to assess public service property ac- cordance with right and justice, ~ “In every community custom takes cedent over the law. tl has been customary in this state, and is customary now, x valuations for assessing purposes at aan one-third. “The state board, in my judgment, has no right to compel a corporation, use it is such, to pay & or per cent when others are only paying 30 per cent on thelr holdings.” “How about the city of Bt. Louis? st. Louis pays 70 per cent.” ‘Now, I don't know about that. IY made inquiries while in St. Louts question and I learned in several ! that property there is assessed as as has been represented.’ “Was the decision of the Supreme Court in the Rombauer mandamus proceeding @& surprise to you?” “No, it wasn't. I don't see how the could have done anything else, What ite views on the subject are on't know, but we feel that ite action Is. In vindication of the work of the board. "The board of equalization ts trying to Ge pose of this question fairly. It ts one th to criticise and another to show warran for the criticism.” Auditor Allen’s Opinion Unchanged. Auditor Albert O. Allen has not changed hfs opinion on the subject of franchises assessment. He admits that the question Is not settled to his satisfaction, but declares that it requires years of study to unravel the tntricactes of state taxation. “I am not certam how I will vote at the coming session of the board. I am under oath to discharwe my obligation as a meme- ber of the board of equalization and I shall endeavor to act for the interests of the whole people.” “Do you not think, Mr. Allen, that lic service pregene should be asse high tn St. Louis as that of real estate personal holdings?” “Well, the people of St. Louls 7% per cent on their personal hold cause the city needs the taxes for pu ses. “Yn the state. the assessment is very ual.

Garrard, patriarch of the Garrard famlly, which has been at war with the Whites in Clay County for 65 years, died yesterday in his famous ‘‘old mansion’ near Man- chester. Gen. Garrard was one of the few surviving Kentuckians who figured promi- nently in the Mexican and civil wars. He had been urged by the members of his fam- lly to leave Clay County, but, proud and haughty of spirit, he had spurned the sug- estion and said he would not reave his| ome. He had spent five fortunes in main- | taining himself and his family in the Clay | County vendetta. It is estimated that over | 30 lives have been lost since the feud be- gan. % ublic thinks. The l won't be inter- “I don’t care what the decision is rendered, an viewed on it.” Court May Give An Opinion. Judge James B. Gantt was seen at his residence, 110 McCarthy street. At the beginning of the conversation he referred very diplomatically to the “dignity | and sacredness’ of a court and remarked | that for the first time since he was on the bench he was requested to give information which did not appear officially in the court records. Asked if he did not oonsider the Rom- bauer mandamus case of extraordinary im- ortance from the fact that it meant a sav- ng to every taxpayer in St. Louis and an additional increase of revenue amounting to perhaps a quarter of a million dollars, he repWed: ‘The writ was a very ordinary one, The proprieties of the court are such thaf I can- not go behind the record to explain what prompted my conclusion or the conclusion of any other member of the court. This much I will say. The court weighed this question very carefully and, after a full and free discussion, the decision to deny the writ was made,” ‘Would you mind stating, Judge, wheth- er it was tho unanimous opinion of the court?’’ “T think go, but I am not positive on that point. Possibly Judge Burgess was absent, or, may be, Judge Valliant. At any rate, there was nothing to conceal. We simply acted with this writ as we do with hun- dreds which come before us every day.” “Is is definitely settled the court will not hand down an oral or written opinion of the subject?’’ ‘Well, I cannot say as to that. The court has not yet finished its session and until then it may render an opinion on any case that may have come before it.’”’ Digressing from the official action of the court and talkine in personal vein, Judge Gantt said that he recalled that some years ago, while the state board of equalization was in session, the late John J. McCann, the noted tax advocate, who became a prisoner rather than pay a real estate li- cenee which he contended was a tax on industry, applied to him for a writ of man- damus. “T told Mr. McCann,” said — Burgess, “that no writ would be proper at that time, since the state board had not yet concluded its labors. Of course, speaking prawn b where an assessor has refused absolutely to levy a tax, probably a writ of mandamus would Ife. Did Not Recall Talk With Cook. Judge Gantt stated that he was entirely unfamiliar with the work of the state board of equalization and that it was some years since he had given the subject of property assessments any consideration. He was then asked if he remembered taiking over the question of assessments with any member of the board of equaliza- tion. He replied that he did not. “Do you recall any informal conversa- tion with Mr. Cook on the subject?’ “No: I am pretty certain | never dis- cussed the matter with him.” Proprieties Prevent an Explanation. Judge Theodore Brace told the Post-Dis- patch that he would be glad to enlighten the people of St. Louis on the decision of the court relative to the mandamus pro- ceedings instituted against the state board of equalization, but that the propertJes of his position would not permit him to give out such information. “It is just this way.’ he said, “I am only one of seven members of the M s- sour! Supreme Court. To attempt to speak on this subject would be to piace myself as the orator of the entire body. The court speaks by its record. “In this case it has denied the applica- tion for an alternative writ. There is nothing more that I can say. No written or 0 opinion was handed down. It is not customary." ‘But, judge, this question is of such vital importance to the taxpayers of 8:.

The Whites say they want peace and are willing to do anything fo stop the trouble which has disrupted Clay County for s0 many years. There are now few barrards and Whites left in the county, and it is said if any more trouble arises the friends of the families, the Howards on the White side and the Bakers and Philpots on the Garrard side, will have to make it.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., March 13.—Another 60-barrels-per-hour gusher has been struck in Knox County. Mr. D. H. Milligan, who represents an oil well company, received a telegram yesterday from that section say- ing the Barnes well had come in. It is half a mile east of the Wages well. on Little Richmond CreeK.. The striking of the well means the biggest boom Knox County has ever known.

Grant of Kalamazoo, has just heard from his brother, Alexander, whom he has not seen for 50 years, and who was supposed to have been murdered by the Ute Indians and Mormons in the Mountain Meadow Massa- cre. The family lived at Glengarry, Ont., and Alexander went to California in search of gold. After a few years had elapsed and no tidings came from him Lewis started in search of him. Then a third brother started tn search of the two brothers, and he is still missing. Alexander, now 70 years of age, is living at Bell Grade. Neb. He inserted an adver- tisement in a newspaper, and thus his whereabouts became Known. It developed that Lewis’ children attended school where Alexander's daughter acted as teacher, but the identification never became known. Every effort is now being made to find a trace of the third brother. JONES AND DAVIS DEBATED Senator and Governor Discussed State awd Private Politics at Forest City. FOREST CITY, Ark., March 15.—Senator James K. Jones, candidate for re-election, and Gov. Jefferson Davis, a supporter of the candidacy for the Senate of former Gov. Clarke, met here in joint debate yes- terday afternoon. Each speaker devoted most of his ad- dress to discussion of state matters, and it was only when Gov. Davis touched upon the Senator’s private business transactions that anything like spirit entered into the debate. Senator Jones explained his connection with the Roundbale Cotton Co. and an- swered the charges of his opponent, MR.

How many of these places could you hold for a day? If you were suddenly thrown out of employment, and there was nothing doing in your line, to' which of these offers could you turn with any assur- ance of being able to fulfill the conditions prescribed?

SAVAGE NEW YORK, March 15.—There is in New York—and the like ts true of all great cities —that which calls itself par @xcellenee so- cfefy. It is made up of the Four Hundred, or, I think, some recent authority has been reducing it to One Hundred and Fifty: Whatever the number may be, I do not mean to say anything against the persons who constitute this interior organization in society. Many of them are noble, Intellectu- ally cultivated, charitable and generous. I have a word to say against them as individ- uals. But a society that is organized around the idea of wealth alone must of necessity ignoble and vulgar. here is nothing, in the highest and finest sense of the word, human merely fn the possession of wealth; and, if these people who meet together and consthiute a cer- tain section of society merely because they are rich will excuse me for not wanting to be with them, I will freely pardon them for not gan 8 me. There is nothing there that is in any wey attractive to a person who cares for what is essentially high and fine in humanity; and it degenerates sometimes into that which is exceedingly vulgar. I was at the opera there other night, and I saw one lady—I do not know who she was, though I might have found out by seeking the number of the box on the pro- gram and reading the name—who I!lustrates what this sort of thing comes to when it degenerates, And gets itself perfect expres- sion. I have never seen anything outside a showcase at Tiffany’s that in any way eh aage this lady. It was barbaric in the extreme. She had the air of telling every- body that she had not come there to hear the music, but merely to be hooked at; and she was loaded and hung al! over, in every possible place, with diamonds and géms and jewels of every kind. Worse Than the Fiji Islanders. Now we can forgive an Indian ora Fij! Islander his anklets and bracelets, or his nose-rings and earrings, because he has not, presumably. been developed to any- thing higher than these; but the type of so- clety whose distinguishing feature is that kind of thing certainly Is not human in the true sense in which that word ought to be used. I know women—I have known of them, I have nobody at present in New York in mind in saying this, and I speak of them because they are specially and pe- culiarly the home-makers—who have given themselves up s0 unreservedly, so indul- gently, to the pleasure side of society that they have little time for the home, for their children, for the husband, for culti- vating the highest and finest things in themselves. They exceed the just limits and propor- tions. perhaps without any intention, by sxiving themselves so largely to the mere pleasure side of social interests. For example, I have known women to belong to three or four whist clubs, and spend half the week, perhaps more, in playing whist. I have nothing to say against whist, but no matter what the thing may be; it is quite possible for peo- ple to expend more time on it than they have a right to spend, in view of a hun- dred other things, which demand thelr attention. There «are too people who go through religious forms and ceremonies, having their emotions touched and plaved upon, who really think they are engaged in religious exercises, who never do. a religious thing. It is possible for people to become inter- ested in the theoretical, the emotional side of the world, and yet all their powers and emotions to be spent in this way while they really do nothing to help mankind. We must touch the world tin these three ways: Enter into relations with our fei- low-men for the sake of the pleasure, the satisfaction the restfulness that they may bring to us; enter into relations with our fellow-men for the sake of study, of learn- ing, of widening our outlook; enter Into re- lations with our fellow-men for the sake of learning the world’s need, and doing what we can to make the world better. There are a great many homes where the burden of home-making and hame- -aring are such as to leave little ftime or these outside assoctations. I believe that in the process of the evolution of 'the home toward its ideal there is to be ever more and more opportunity in this / di- rection. It is the man who furnishes [the means for the making of the home: but it is the woman who makes us. The man has little time for home life: and the woman-— @ great many of them are tied too much to the home, so that they have little time for the outside aad wider .life of the world. I ve that reformers will come, as the touching the ons of met Io “tine halons.

When we get really civilized and adjusted to the true ideas of home life, we shall know. that money is merely the raw matert- al, end that it is to be turned into ideal homes, {deal social conditions, and that the man must leave himself free for home life ane social life, both, if he is going to be a 1an, And the women will become freer from the home drudgery, as time goes by, and be able to enter into the larger and wider life of the times. , I have no fears that women will become less womanly, mothers less motherly, be- cause they study and become wiser, be- cause they get into personal contact with interests beyond the range of the home. It is not these people who are in danger of neglecting the home. r It is the selfish, the self-indulgent, those who do not appreciate what the home means, those wso care more for every com- fort and luxury than they do far their chil- dren. Such always have neglected the home; and they always will. The only hope is that they will become educated out of these mental and moral and spiritual conditions of character. But the women will remain women. Na- ture will take care of that; and love and the home-making will always be the high- est and deepest thing in the woman’s na- ture, and the woman’s life. And, if you set her hands free and her brains free, I believe it will reault in her becoming more typically and nobly womanly, and help on so the idealizing of the home and the ideal- izing of society as well. For, at the close, let me say there is no antagonism between these claims. The acme of the world’s civilization will be at- tained when you find a perfect home; but that will be when you have a perfect so- clety surrounding ft an matching it. There is no antagonism between the two. If one selfishly ._withdraws himself from social contact he makes himself less a man, the woman makes herself less a woman, and therefore, the home, which ts the product of these natures, will be of necessity some- thing less than ideal, ROCKEFELLER'S BIG.

He was pitted against two men who had been for many years connected with the Republican machine political organizations, and who had consequently had opportunities for building up a constituency which would serve them fn good turn when they ran for office, This availed nothing with the mountaineers when Mr. Buttram went among them on foot, wearing the habili- ments they wear and at every house leaving an old-fashioned Noah Webster “Blue Back Speller’’ for the children. With the East Tennessee mountaineer Webster's “Blue Back Speller”’ ranks next to the Bible, and soon after Buttram be- gan his canvass of the mountain district, which composed a good part of the vote which would be cast in the nominating primary, his competitors realized t they would be hopelessly defeated. The man who was afterward nominated, which was equivalent to his election, cone tinued to visit with the mountain le and to distribute his ‘“‘Blue Back Speliers.”" Iie was gaining ground every day, and something, though his two opponen must needs be done to “head him off.” in the Tennessee vernacular. So, working along this line, the report was started that Buttram was not fit for the position of attorney-general; that he was a backwoodsman, rn on the farm, lacking a college education and generally deficient. AlJl of the charges were true perhaps, with the exception of the last one. Buttram made political capital out _ he n charges, and tn addition to continut distribution of the speller f claim that he was of the people, have their support for that chestnut sto caught the fancy of the sturdy Fast Tennessee mountain voter, and Buttram was nominated by a large yote over his machine opponents.

A. Hardy. WAS GUEST OF GOV. SAVAGE THE LATTER HAD HEARD OF HARDY’S ACHIEVEMENTS. When Brought to Lincoln to Make Good His Friends’ Stories the Cowboy Astonished All the Natives. LINCOLN, Neb., March 15.—Some remark- able rifle and revolver shooting was done here the other day by Capt. A. A. Hardy, a cowboy friend of Gov, Savage. When the governor attended a big roundup at Hyan- nis jiast fall he ran across Hardy, whv punches cows on the range most of the year. After his return the governor began tell- ing tales of Hardy's prowess that were greeted with jeers by local marksmen. To re-establish his reputation as a veracious sportsman he invited Hardy down to give the city fellows some points on how to hit things. Hardy has never given public exhibitions of his skill for money. Here are some of the things he did before the 400 sportsmen on the grounds of the Lincoln Gun Club: He handed Gov. Savage a handful of hickory nuts and tasked him to throw them up in the air as fast as he could, one after the other. Not one escaped his fire bullet. ‘ive or six cents thrown 15 feet in the air never came back. At a distance of 15 paces he cut clean in two an ordinary business card held by the governor. He directed a friend to hold a card out at arm's length and within a space the size of a nickel he placed five bullets as fast as they could be fired. Half a dozen hazel nuts, stuck on skewers and forming a thrée-quarters circle on the head of a man, were shot off in succession from a distance of 2 paces. he six nuts were shot off in 10 secconds, and al] the skewers were left exactly the same length, showing that he had hit each nut squarely in the cen*er, The captain borrowed a watch from one of the spectators, He marked on a card a spot about the size of a cent. This card +he guve to the man assisting him and sat- tioned him ten paces north of him. The captain faced to the east with his body, but turned his head due south. He rested His rifle on his extended left arm. eghied it by means of a reflection in the case of the watch and put a bullet within a quarter of an inch of the spot on the card, Arching his body until his feet and his head touched the ground. he put five bul- lets, as fast as he could deliver them, into a small business card held by his assista:it. who | Some one called his attention to an Eng- lish sparrow rooting in a dirt ry 50 yards away.

Although under a constant surveillance, he has a small farm and receives $35 a month as ‘government scout.”’ This sum is in the pature of a bonus, and Geronimo has been Known to chuckle shrewdly at the queer. tactics of a téreat Father who hires scouts to watch scouts. With Geronimo 298 Anaches, the remnant of the Chiarchauas, will be released. Geronimo is said by Indian fighters likes Gen. Miles, Leonard Wood and others to be the worst Indian 'tthat ever lived. It cost the United States government $1,- 000,000 and hundreds of lives to capture him and put him in irons. Three times he sur- rendered and escaped before his final cap- ture by the late Gen. Lawton, then under command of Gen, Nelson A. Miles. Geronimo’s ‘‘death hunts,’’ the annual excursions for plunder and murder, which the Apache chief carried on for many years, are still remembered with horrible distinctness by settlers of the Southwest. Geronimo was born on his father’s ranch away upon the table land at the head of the Gila river, in Arizona. ‘‘As a boy.” he said, ‘I worked with the rest planting corn, pulling grass for the cattle, and such things. We had to pull up the grass by the roots or else twist it off, for we had no way of cutting it. We did not know what ascythes and sickles were, and the big knives cost much money, or, what was the same as money to us, our corn and wheat and s.ock and skins.”’ Geronimo was 10 years old before he ever saw a white man. His grandfather had been a chief, and “Giatly,’’ as the Apaches called Geronimo, early became a trusted man at the camp- fire councils. From the first He hated white men. He despised civilized customs and the dress of the paleface. Tells of His First j Active War Service. This is his picturesque account of his first entry on the warpath: “T got married,’’ he says, ‘‘and supported my wife and my family by hunting. 1 bought horses. The valleys and the table land of the Gila are good places for horses. 1 always liked horses for hunting, and was getting rich. ‘One day some Mexicans came to our vil- lage to steal while I was on a hunt. Dur- ing the fight they killed my wife and my two papooses about three and five years 0/4, “When I came back and found my wife dead and my children dead it made my heart sorry for myself and hard for the, Mexicans!”’ Geronimo became the merciless enemy of the Mexicans and the paleface, and for 2 years he was dreaded as a scourge. The Mexicans believed he was a god end used to sacrifice their cattle in the hopes of appeasing his wrath. From the rocky fastnesses of the Gila riv- er he sallied out at intervals with his band of Chiarcahuas, the fiercest of the Apaches, to murder and to torture victims who were | not so fortunate as to be killed at once.

In six years 425 settlers, half the popula- tion of Arizona at that time, were mur- dered by Geronimo and his band. The last death trail in which Geronimo engaged was in 18%. He and his band killed a rancher named Becker in Arizona, tortur- ing his wife and children te death. Before the party of Indians left the war path they killed 76 settlers. For years Gen. Crook. the king of Indian fighters, had camped on the wily Indian's trail, and in 1883 he persuaded Geronimo and his people to settle peaceably for two years on the Mexican bcrder.

PARIS, March 15.—What cceuld be “better fitting’ than that Maitre Jeanne Chauvin, the famous, the only woman advocate in France, should represent Mine. Philbols in this celebrated casé, the ‘“affaire cadolle contre Philbois?’’ For a corset was the ca ave of this law- suit. It, the suit, must greatly interest Miss Helen Gould, who tas done so much for the legal education of woman; must in- terest the women lawyers whose beauty and brains adorn the American bar; must, indeed, entertain all wonsen who know all about law—and corsets. . Maitre Jeanne Chauvin proved that, learned in the law as ahy man, she knew infinitely more about oOorsets than any mere man lawyers can lewrn. The unhappy president, of the court, who undoubtedly knows much law, knew so lit- tle about corsets that he adjourned the court for eight days to ponder the points about ““‘guegsets’"’ and .‘‘shoulder’ straps” submitte 5 him by Maitre Chauvin. The trial/was held in the fourth chamber of the tritjunal of the Ssine, and was an ap- peal against the judgraent of the civil courts. /The real issi¢: was the “separa- tion between the gusset and the shoulder trap."’ Mme. Cadolle., corsetiere, contend- ng that this “separag on” was her inven- tion, and that Mme. F’hilbois, a rival cor- set maker, had copied it. The Court of Appeals was filled with an audience of women. The president ordered the usher to call the “affaire Cadolle vs. Philbois. The usher, knowing the point of the dispute, was naturally nervous. Usher Made First Mistake. “Cadolle vs. Philboés,” hesitatingly cried the usher. Two women, glaring at each other, advanced. The usher tremblingly turned to one and said, pointing to a bench on the right: Cadolle, doubtless. VVill you sit re- The woman, pale with indignation, torted: “Monsieur, I am Mme. Philbois, who created le corset Ph'tlbois. Pray, do not mis- take Philbois for Cadolle.”’ “The usher, looking as if he wished cor- Sets had never been invented, stammered an apology. Mme, Philbois seated herself on the left, Mme. Cadolle took a place on the right. Then entered Maitre Jeanne Chauvin. The charming and wise advocate bowed to the court. then to her client, then to the public, Almost bashfully, Maitre Allard, Mme.

Men carried into ourt dummy figures attired in carsets. reatly confused, these men mixed up the corsets Cadolle with the corsets Philbois, to the infinite indignation of the contesting arties, who, finally had to sort out their andiwork and rightly range the oorseted mannikins—no, not mannikins, figures—in a row to right and left of the court. “Maitre Chauvin, you have the word,’’ arain said the President.

Briefly, eloquentiy, she traced the history of the corset, told that Herodotus speaks of it, that Greek statues show the cein- ture; that there exists the ‘“Venus of the Corselet. Quickly coming to the corset Philbois, Maitre Chauvin demonstrated that its gusset and shoulcer strap have nothing in common with the corset Cadolle. “As you see, M. le President,’ she ex- claimed, ‘“‘the corset Philpois 1s designed to'’-—- But why pursue her convincing argu- ment? When his turn oyme Maitre Allard embraced the subject in hand by throwing his arm around one of the figures. He tried to show that the gorse: Philboils was a r imitation of the corset Cadolle.

Mr. Hackett is said to have made a care- ful production of ‘“‘The Crisis’’ in all ithe costumes and scenery and castin play. Its first performance in on Thursday, March 6, was a triumph for his ambition, both as an actor and pro- ducer. From Pittsburg he took it to Cleve- land and met with the same success.

In going through the “‘open door’’ into our newest go eg for the theme and color- ing of his opera, Mr. Ade has abandoned the hampering limitations of conventional ecmic opera composition, and his libretto seems to he the triumph of the original.

Mrs. Harmansef Twice Knocked Down a Sergeant and Blacked Bota of a Lieutenant’s Eyes. NORFOLK, Va., March 16.—The women of this city have developed a lively interest in the affairs of the strikers on the lines of the Norfolk Railway & Light Co., and Mrs. Harmansef, wife of a barber, attacked sev- eral members of the state guard, and whipped to a standstill a sergeant and lieutenant, blacking both the latter’s eyes. The reason for her attack was that the sergeant prodded her husband in the arm with a bayonet. All during the day a mob of 500 excited men, and as many women, paraded the main streets upon which were run the cars of the company, and there were several sharp encounters between the strikers. po- lice and the soldiers, In some parts of the city tne cars were operated in a desultory manner, but in no instance were more than a few passengers brave enough to ride. Stones and all sorts of missiles were hurled at the soldiers who rode on the cars as guards, and in several instances men were severely injured. A crowd collected near the barber shop of Harmansef and a sergcant and a detail of soldiers attempted to disperse it. Harmansef was prodded in the arm by the sergeant and ina trice the barber’s wife entered the lists. With a right-handed hook she sent the sergeant to grass, and when he attempted to rise she floored him again. Lieut. E. R.

Boston Freight Handlers and Clerks Not Yet Satisfied. BOSTON, Marth 15.—The final settlement of the great transportation strike In this city has narrowed today to the issue be- tween the freizht handlers and the freight clerks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford and the Boston & Maine Rail- roads. ‘ The issue made by the freight handlers is that of being taken back in a body instead of being treated as new men. The only concession thus far made by the railroads is that they will take back as many men as they can find places for without prejudice, but the strikers refuse to yield. They are about 200 in number. Practically all otheas engaged in the strike observed the order declaring the strike off today. Some of the longshoremen found that their places had been filled. but those who could not return today, relying on Gov. Crane’s representation that all difficulties would be settled In due time, faced the con- ditions with more or less patience. The team drivers, whose return vesterday did much to relleve the congested freight houses and docks. the coal teamsters, the longshormen and the expressmen were narly all at work as usual. HE WAS LITTLE BUT WICKED. Twelve-Year-Old Negro Shrewdly Robs Safe in a Courthouse. HARTSVILLE, Tenn., March 15.—Trustee Banks Robertson's safe in the courthouse was robbed by a 12-year-old negro boy, who did the work as dextrously as an experi- enced crook. Mr. Robertson, having left Deputy Reaves in charge, was leaving the courthouse when the negro, Herman Reed, asked him fcr his keys, saying that Dep- uty Reaves needed coal in the office. Not suspecting anything, the keys were given him. He then went to the office and told the deputy that he was wanted up the street. Roaves went out, leaving the boy alone in the office. The outer doors of the trustee’s big safe were open, and seeing this the young thief found the key to the money drawer and secured $55. The deputy learned that he was not wanted, returned to the office to find both the negro and the money missing.

He says. “The patient was a man who had suffered, to my knowledge, for years with dyspepsia. Everything he ate seemed to sour and create gases in the stomach. He had pains like rheumatism in the back, shoulder blades and limbs, fulness and distress after cating, poor ap- petite and loss of flesh: the heart, be- sleeplessness at night. “I gave him-powerful nerve tonics and blood remedies. but to no purpose. As an experiment I finally bought a 50 cent. package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at a drug store and gave them to him. Almost immediate relief was given, and; after he had used four boxes he was to: all appearances fully cured. “There was no more xcidtty or sour,! watery risings, no bloating after meals, the appetite was vigorous and he has gained between 10 and 12 pounds in weight of solid, healthy flesh. | : “Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets: are advertised and sold in drug stores, vet I consider them a most valuable ad- dition to any physician’s line of reme- dies. as they are perfectly harmless and can be given to children or invalids or in: any condition of the stomach with per-. fect safety, being harmless and contain- ing nothing but frait and vegetable es- sences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal. “Without any question ee are ; , the’ SWEPT THROUGH A GREAT SEWER Terrible Experience of a Plumber’s Helper. LADDER AND LIFE LINE BROKE CARRIED AWAY IN A NIAGARA OF SEWAGE. He Just Kept Swimming, He Says, and Was Eventually Tossed Up in the East River and Rescued. Special to the Pcaet-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 15.—To be swept through a giant city sewer for rearly a mile, then shot into the tide-swept East river, was the rare experience of Edward Boyle, a plumber’s helper, and yet he lived to tell his thrilling experience. That he escaped being drowned, asphyx- lated by foul gases or killed by being dashed against some obstruction when the force of the current shot him into the river, is con- sidered little short of marvelous. ° Boyle and his ‘‘boss,’’ George Bradischer, and others were working at the sewer from the manhole in front of 252 East Fifty-third street. Most of the le on the block watched them, as it had been rumored that the men were likely to be swept away at any moment. One of-ethe sewer inspectors started the rumor. ‘*Those plumbers are likely to be drowned down there,’’ he remarked. “That ig the most dangerous sewer in tewn. It has a pitch of more than 30 degrees and water is six feet deep.’’ The sewer inspector warned the plum- ers to lash their ladders with ropes and they did so, adding planking and scaffolding to prevent the ladder from being broken by the force of the water. A few minutes after this warning had been given, Boyle buckled on his rubber boots and insisted upon going down. Brad- ischer gave him a life line to take down with him, twisting the end of the line around Boyle's left arm. The other end was held od Bradischer and the rest of his men. oyle had got about half wa down the ladder when there was a cras and his voice was heard shouting: ladder’s broke and I’m hanging in the air. For God's sake lower me till I can get the rope off my wrists.”’ Shouted They Were Pulling His Arm Off. But the men holding the rope pulled the harder to drag Boyle out of the sewer. He shouted again that his arms was being torn off. “Lower me a little, for God's sake,’’ he called. The men with the rope slackened it, slow- ly. lowering Boyle back Into the sewer. A moment later they heard Boyle's voice shouting: ““‘Good-by _ pals, I'm a dead one; I’’°— They pulled and tugged at the rope and up came a piece of the ladder. t hac broken almost in half. The lower piece had disappeared and so had Boyle. Men ran up and down the street shouting. Women at the windows screamed. A score of men ran to the foot of Fifteenth street, expecting to see Boyle washed out of the sewer at that point. Others ran to a fire engine house nearby and called out the firemen with their ladders. At all of the manholes in the neighborhood ladders were lowered and gangs of men searched for Boyle. ‘“Youse are all wrong,’ a tough-looking boy in the crowd told them at last. ‘Dat man’'ll fetch up in the river at the foot of Forty-ninth street.”’ , As the crowd moved toward Second ave- nue, bent on following this clew, the clang of an ambulance bell stopped them. An ambulance from Flower ospital swung around the corner end stopped in front of the Dempsey dwelling. @€ moment it Hope for Consumptives. A Positive Cure Found by a Celebrated Michigan Physician.

MAPS SHOW SPAIN LARGEST Geographies Represent Philippines as Larger Than the United States— Pupils Are Mischievous and Seem to Love to Lie. Special to the Post-Dispatch, COLUMBIA, 8. C., March 15.—According to Mr. R. D. Epps of this state, a col- lege graduate, now conducting the school at Binan, Laguna Province, Philippines, the most radical change made by the Amer- ican teacher {fs in the mode of punishment. Native teachers have made the boys un- dergo torture, while they pinch the giris upon parts of the body which the native costumes render accessible, “To write intelligently of the Philippine school is out of the question,” says Mr. Epps in a letter. “I have just been read- ing a little book, which describes 47 dis- trict tribes who live in these islands, and there are doubtless others never visited by a white man. Each tribe has its own dialect, customs and peculiarities; hence schools adopted to the needs of one section might be quite unsuitable in a town a few miles away. The Spanish method of making all the children study at the top of their voices is here described. Continuing, Mr. Epps says: Put All the Pupils in a Pen. “The children here are certainly full of mischief, though I am told in other parts of this province they are easily managed. One native teacher decided not to worry about discipline, so she bullt a large pen in the yard and into this she put all the children, allowing the classes to crawl through a crack when wanted for recita- tion. Many.geographies distributed throughout the islands represents Spain as the largest country on the map and it is almost im- possible to change this false impression. Many of the native teacher return the new maps and books, saying they were all wrong, as the, United States was made to appear larger’ than the Philippines and even Spain. “In view of this, it fs a task +o t to teach our language and methods, but it Its already a partial success. There are prob- ably 20 young men and women in this town who have learned already enough English to carry on a fair conversation, while hun- dreds of children have made such progress that it is very little trouble to make them understand and answer questions in short sentences. “The native teachers are cruel in their ways of punishment. The boys are some- times made to kneel and hold thelr arms horizontally in front of the body until they are exhausted. At other times they have their ears twisted or are flogged with bamboo canes.

THE HARVESTING MACHINES which cut the country’s grain require two horses and one-man to do the work of six men, but these machines made the Mc- Cormick millions. THE SEWING MACHINE, which works five times as fast as the seamstress, built palaces and supports whole townships with its earnings. But the Basket-making Machines of the Mergenthaler-Horton Basket Machine Company are so efficient and so perfectly autematic that with each ef them ONE GIRL DOES THE WORK OF TWELVE MEN. COMPANY CONTROLS ITS OWN FIELD. In addition to the great saving of labor, which would commend these machines as an in- vestment to every business man and every thinking person, there is the most important fact that the Mergenthaler- Horton Basket Machine Company will absolutely contro! the industry which employs the machines. IT WILL DO THE BUSINESS ITSELF. Its mode! factor- ies will be set up on a scale commensurate wit the great scope of the Compan ys field of work, and will manufacture from raw material and deliver to the fruit grower every basket needed fer the moving and marketing of every ounce of fruit produced, IN THIS WAY the full control of prices, of product and of pro‘t will be retained by the giant organization which represents the people, who are alive fo the merit of a proposition stronger than any which has ever been offered to the public for popular subscription. A preposition controlling an industry of which the present and immediate PROFITS ARE OVER $4,060,000 A YEAR, and the demand for fruit baskets of all kinds is increas- ing at the rate of 150,000,000 baskets a year. Already there are six thousand shareholders in this great Corporation. Already the plans of the Company are taking definite which are nearing completion and which, when announced, price of the shares higher and higher. FACTS THAT COUNT. OVER THIRTY-THREE PER CENT ON THE ENTIRE CAPITAL ON THE PRESENT VOLUME OF BUSINESS. The machines may be seen in operation at the Robison Basket Company’s factory, Painesville, ©., where over thirty are in- stalled; at Elmira. N. Y., at the machine shops of Emmett Horton, one of the invent- ors, and at Sodus, N, Y., where they are also ink « peration. Is The practical working of the machines is now shown in eyery office of the Company named below. The Company will not sell or le ase its ma- chines, but will equip and own and operate basket tactories all over this country. Truth About Recent Advances.= Reasons Why a Further Rise to and Beyond Par is Inevitable. Shares in the Mergenthaler-Herton Basket Machine Company have advanced to 50 cents (par value, $1.00 full paid and non-assessable). The rise is due to pepular appreciation of opportunity. Such epportunities usualy go te a Syndicate ef Capitalists. This one has been effered direct to the public, and prompt advan- tage has been taken of it. It has become ‘THE PEOPLE’S TRUST.’ | 5 When the announcements of the Mergenthaler-Horton Basket Machine Co. were first made, there were marly who were interested in the new facts pre- sented, and a large percentage of the interested ones subscribed for the first allot- ment of shares. Another large number subscribed for the second allotment, and on both allotments there were many who, through indecision or oversight did not make subscription in time to get their stock. A GREAT MANY (nearly 1500) subscriptions to the first allotment of shares, which closed on Feb. 28, did not arrive on that day owing to mails delayed by storm and flood, and all those subscribers who had not taken the precaution to telegraph the Company were advised that the lists were closed. This was by many considered to be an arbitary ruling by the Company’s officers, but it was made necessary by the fact that the first allotmerft was already somewhat over-subscribed, and the direct- ors were in duty bound to refuse all subscriptions, at the price of the first allotment the moment the time limit had expired. THESE OCCURRENCES made it necessary for the directors of the Company in announcing the second allotment, to reserve the right of closing the subscription at any time at their discretion. Thus, many were disappointed, but with no misunder- standing as to the power of the directors to reject their subscription. DIRECT TO THE PEOPLE. When the Comipany’s shares were first offered to the public, it was figtired that as there was no “underwriting syndicate” to absorb a large amount of stock, it was possible to offer the first shares at a low price to provide funds for initial steps in getting the far-reaching plans «* the Company under way. This would give the first subscribers the advantage to which they were entitled as the work of gathering capital proceeded. A certain amount of stock was therefore set aside for the first allotment, and the second allotment was announced at a higher price. This second allotment has now been closed, and with such success that the realization of the great profits which will accrue from operating the automatic labor-saving basket making ma- chines of the Company has become a business certainty. WITH SUCH POSSESSIONS as the only Basket Machines ever inveuted, pro- tected by basic patents and all improvements covered, it is a plain business proposi- tion that capital and management will accomplish great success. This capital is being furnished by the people in steadily increasing volume; and this business manage- ment, broad and iin as it must be, is provided out of the experience of the Com- pany’s own directorate of business men who first recognized the great opportunity and grasped it. THE PROPOSITION. The proposition of the Mergenthaler- Horton Basket Machine Co. is one of au- @tomatic machine work as opposed to hand labor, and none of the noted labor-saving machines familiar to every one can compare in effectiveness and practical accom- plishment with the basket-making machines which this Company owns and SORT 5 MUSICAL SEASON WILL CLOSE > WITH SOME FINE ATTRACTIONS THE MERGENTHALER- HORTON BASKET |.

March. 15.—President Roosevelt shook both of Gen. Funston’s hands when they met in the White House today and looked as if he wanted to hug him. He jumped across the room when the little Kansan came in and almost shouted: “Funston, I'm glad to see you. I don’t know anybody I'd rather see. Tell me all about it. I want to know about that cap- ture of Aguinaldo and all the rest of the things you've done.”’ The President pumped questions into the general with Gatling-gun rapidity. They talked together for half an hour. #After- ward Gen. Funston was a guest at lunch- eon. Others present were Edward Everett Iiale, Senator Beveridge, Attorney-General Knox, Arthur Hale, Eugene F. Ware, Sherman Bell and Albert Shaw. The luncheon party did not leave the White House until after 3 o'clock. Gen. Funston will again meet the President for & more extended talk on Philippine condi- tions. Before going to the White House, zen. Funston called at the war depart- ment, paying his respects to Gen. Miles and Adjutant-General Corbin. Gen. Miles and Gen. Funston are old-time friends. When Secretary Root returns Monday the general will confer with him relative to his future assignment. The secretary of war is disposed to give Funston a command in the United States unless he prefers to return to the Philip- pines. The retirement of Gen. Otis and Gen. Brooke will make vacancies in the department commands in this country and, in the rearrangement, the department of the Colorado or of the Dakotas will be open to Funston Gen. Funston has attracted more atten- tion In Washington than any of the miii- tary officers returning from. the Philtp- pines. He will be a guest at several din- ners befure he leaves. Gen. Funston, after conferrin retary Root, will go to San meet Mra. Funston, and after movements will be governed by from the war department. HOUSE BROKE ITS RECORD.

This is the largest number of pension bills ever passed by the house at one session. Earlier in the day, a resolution was adopted calling upon the war department for information concerning the government transport service between San Francisco and the Philippines. with Sec- rancisco to that his orders —— ——— — PAPAL AGENT 1S COMING Archbishop Sbarretti Brings Claims of Friars in Philippines Amount- ing to $8,000,000. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 15.—Archbishop Sbarretti, the papal delegate to the Phil- ippines, now en route to Washington. brings with him an inventory of the friars’ lands in the Philippines, prepared at Rome. The sum usually assumed as an outside valuation of the estates is $8,000,000. A prominent Catholic of the Pacific slope. who is familiar with the archipelago, today laughed at this figure. He Soieves that when the war department inspects Mer. Sbarretti’s inventory there will be cause to change the figures. He said: “The friars have had from 1000 to 2000 men working in the Philippines for 30 ears, They were given large grants of and by the ae crown and have im- roved them during that long period. It oes not seem reasonable that this great body of men working for such a long time. almvst unhampered, amassed fixed weaith of such srnal!l value. It is more than likely when an assessment is made that the value of the friars’ lands will exceed the sum paid to “rey by the treaty of Paris."’ It is said that this inventory will {nclude two separate schedules, one the churches, schools and property directly used in public worship or education and another which will define item by item the landed estates. The advent of Mer. Sbarretti will place the government in possession of the first definite idea of the situation from a clerical] Viewpoint. Up to date the testimony before Congress and the administration has come from agents of the government or men who are positively opposed to the policies and intereste of the friars. Those who are well informed as to church affairs assert that Mer. Sharretti is vested with plenary authority. It is likely the question will finally reach a definite settle- THE PARADE SUNSHINE “FOR Cold Wave and Snow Flurries Expect- ed to Lead to a Bright, Crisp, St. Patrick’s Day.

CHICAGO, March 15.—‘‘You ask me whai hope the Boers have?’ said one of the Boer envoys who has come from South Africa to seek aid in the Uhited States for his struggling countrymen. “The best answer to that question lies in the words spoken by the galhant De- larey in the war council held in Pretoria, June 1, 1900. At that time Delarey said: "With the help of God the hour will still come when Great Britain will acknowledge the independence of the two republics. A tremendous change will come over the sit- uation. There is every chance that we will yet drive the enemy out of the country.’ This was said in the darkest hour that the war has seen and we now believe that Delarey's words were prophetic. “Ry one daring raid he has again aroused the world’s interest in the struggle of free men for a continuation of their liberty. The ‘Boer Situation Has Improved. “The Boers are not in the last ditch. “The Boer troops are in better condition for fighting now than at any time since the surrender at Pretoria. The commanders of the Boer armies are all sensible men 0% good judgment and they certainly do not r@ard the contest as hopeless or they woulé continue fighting.” “In the last vear our losses have been amall and our forces have been recruited from many sources. They are liberty-lovers of all nationalities in the commandos of Botha, De Wet and Delarey. “The war has now entered upon its thir- tieth month, and the eyxyg-nditure of blood and treasure has borne out Paul Kruger's prediction that the conquest of the two re- publics would cost a price that would stag- ger humanity. “England cannot keep this struggle up indefinitely. Then, the men she has in field now are not to be compared as a fighting force with those whom Buller led _ to slaughter on the Tugela or those who fol- lowed Methuen in his charges on the un- seen enemy at Modder river and Magers- fontein. “Disease and Boer battles have thinned owt those veterans. The bulk of Kitchener's army is new levies—men who have yet to be trained to fight. not The Strain on Great Britain. ‘The straln on England {fs something ap- palling. She is losing prestige as a world power, and speedily growing poor.

The Release of Methune. ‘‘The release of Gen. Methuen is in strong contrast with the treatment of Scheepers and Kritginger by the English. Gen. Methu- en has burned more houses and created more devastation, with a greater amount of resulting suffering for the women and children, than any other English officer, and yet we have freed him. Scheepers, on the other hand, was shot. If he had been an Englishman he would have been given the Victoria Cross for going back to the aid of his men when he waa captured. Instead he was executed. And now they are trying to trump up charges against Kritzinger. “T do not believe that either Cronje or Viljoen will be released by the English. Mhat is too much to expect of them. Lord Milner is not the kind of a man to do such a thing. Lord Kitchener might—he is a soldier—but, Milner, he is a politician!’’ and, of to go to law, whereupon Mr. Wessels broke in bit- terly: “International law!

ON THE WAY TO WASHINGTON ALL IN LEG IRONS AND SOME IN STRAITJACKETS. Pitiable Sight Presented at the Union Station at Omaha as the Train Came in From the West. Special to the Post-Dispatch. OMAHA, Neb., March 15.—A carload of maniacs who were brought in from the w®st today caused some commotion at the Union Station. They were United States soldiers gone insane in the service in the Philip- pines and their condition was pitiful. All were absolutely mad and violent. All wore leg irons and handcuffs and some were in straightjackets, being then bound to isolated parts of the car. There were 18 of those mantacs in all. The guard and caretakers were a squad of government soldiers stationed at the d00r of the car and at intervals along it with clubbed guns. As the train pulled tnto the station there was @ confused sound, as’of a menagerie approaching. The imprisoned men were chattering, snarling, growling, moaning, roaring und whining like so many wild beasts. Each one seemed to imagine himself some representative of the animal kingdom, and the result was terrifying. : The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul road took the men to the Insane Soldiers’ Hos- pital at Washington. ENGLAND FINDS A NEW HERO Sergeant Paish, Who Says He Hanged Four Boers With His Own Hands. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, March 15.—The latest returned South African hero is Sergt. Paish of the Glamorganshire Militia. He hanged with his own hands four Boers accused of break- ing their parole, a punishment which in !t- self is a. breach of civilized usages. . What especially aroused jingo admiration was Paish's description of the “pretty scene’’ created by the wife of one of his viatims when she saw him practicing the hanging beforehand with an old anvil. This practice was carried on in a public place so the women could not fall to see It. ANOTHER VICTIM IN RIVER Police Believe Sixth Body Was Also That of Man Murdered by Bennett Gang. RF-AUMONT, Tex., March 16.—Another body was taken from the Neches river, making the sixth that has been found in the stream at this place. The body was identified as that of John McNamara. Coroner Brown says the evidence is plain that the man was murdered. The officers think he is a victim of the ‘Hattie’ Bennett gang of robbers and mur- derers. Kseaumont citizens are expressing threats. The fact that another arrest, that of ‘Joe’ Hood, one of the white men implicated by ‘Mattie’’ Bennett's confession, was made last right, and the prisoner lodged in jall today ia, however, having a quieting effect as contidence in the officers’ abilfty to round ur the whole gang is felt. The body of McNamara had evidently been in the water from 15 dayg to three weeks. A thousand persons saw ‘t taken from the water.

The ar- rest of Hood, which was effected at Sile- bee last night. ix regarded by Sheriff Lan- dry 2s important. ‘Mattie’ Bennett, the selt-con*essed lead- er, charged him, in her confession, with be- ing one of the gang.

That datghter is a precious legacy, and the responsibility for her future is largely in the hands of the mother. The mysterious ba that develops the thoughtless girl into the thoughtful woman should find the mother on the watch day and night. As she cares for the vain! well-being of her daughter, so will the woman be, and her children also. When the yo girl’s thoughts become sluggish, when she expe.’ riences headacien aenanne faintness, and exhibits - abnormal di | sition to sleep, pains in the back and lower limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude, and a dislike for the society of other girls, when she is a mystery to herself and friends, then the mother should go to her aid promptly. At such a time the greatest aid to natyre is Lydia EF. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. It prepares the young system for the coming change, and is the surest reliance in this hour of trial. The following letters from Mrs. Southard are practical proof of! Mrs. Pinkham’s efficient advice to young women. ’ , 4 ‘ : «3 CRETE SHIP Ree ss 4 ‘ in att Oe * Mothers Who Allow Their Daughters to Suffer are Cruel When ~ Relief is Easily Obtained.

LOUIS , i Arthur G, Babcox of Oleveiand. O., Will Give Them to the World’s Fair City for Cost of Removal and Shipment. — —- —- -—— + De —_————_ LOCAL COMMITTEE WILL ARRANGE FOR DISTRIBUTION St. Louis is about to be presented with 6000 trees particularly adapted to the soil and atmospheric conditions of this city, for the mere cost of their removal from the ground in which they are now growing to this city. They are the gift of Arthur G. Babcox, president of the Arthur G. Babcox Landscape Gardening Co. of Cleveland, O. In making this offer to the people of St. Louls, Mr. Babcox siys: “I have noticed with pleasure the move- ment recently begun in St. Louis by the Englemann Botanical Club. and the Civic Improvement Society to interest the schoo! children and the people generally in the growing and care of trees and shrubs, and the kind best adapted to growth in the city. Buch a movement will eventually add more to the beauty of St. Louls than any other one thing. To encourage this movement for the permansat adornment of your city I have etermined to present outright to your citi- zens 6000 fast growing Caroline poplars This tree is one of the three kinds that Prof. Herman von Schrenk of Washington Untversity correctly declares most suitable to St. Louis. I will also give 50 fragrant honeysuckles to St. Louis. TI have given 6000 trees to the citizens of Cleveland and shall give 5090 trees to Chicago. “I am not in the nursery business, either directly or indirectly, but as a landscape architect have a contract to clear some 30 acres of land now covered with beauti#u! nursery trees and change it into what will be one of the handsomest estates in Ohio. In clearing this estate all these trees must e taken up and, if they are not trans- planted, they must be destroyed by cutting or burning. “The trees are of four sizes, from 15 to 18 feet high and from 12 to 15 high, 10 to 12 feet and § to 10 feet. They are now growing near Springfield. O. I will have them dug up an carefully bundled, hauled to the ears in Springfield, and shipped to 8t. Louls. In St. Louts I will have them hauled from the depot to some central point, where I wil] have them heeled in, and where the eople of St. Louis can get them by calling or them. Trees Will Live If Set Out Properly. “Each person who takes a tree or vine will be given printed directions for sctting out and the subsequent care of the tree. As a professional landscape architect I have had many years’ experience in tree planting and growing, and my directions, if patty A followed, will save every one of these - tPeeas and 600 vines. ‘The actual cost of digging up the trees where pig 4 are now growing, wrapping them into bundles ready for shipping, cart- ing them to the depot and paying freight to St. Louis and the hauling and ‘heeling in’ at St. Louis, together with the cost of a competent man in St. Louis to care for the trees after their arrival and to assist in delivering, will, I estimate, be as fol- lows: For the largest poplar, about 35 cents; for poplars 12 to 15 feet high, 25 cents; pop- lars 16 to 12 feet high, 15 cents; poplars » to 10 feet high. 19 cents, and 10 cents for each fragrant honevruckle. “Those who desire to get one or more trees may do so by merely paying the ac- tual expense of getting them to 8t. Louls from their prevent growing ground at Springfield, O. The trees will be carefully inspected on thelr arrival In St. Lovis by rome citizens of wide practices! experience in tree planting and growing before they RO to the people. “! shall personally see that the trees are delivered tn St. Louis, making no charge Whatever for.my time or services.” Mr. Babcox on March 8&8 tendered to Mr. William B. Ittner, commissioner of school buildings of St. Louis, enough trees to roperly plant the grounds of the Eugene leld sachool at Olive street and Taylor avenue free of cost to the citv, to be plant- ed under the direction of Mr. Babcox. At the same ftime Mr. Babcox offefted the beard of education 500 trees to be planted on the grounds of city schools, 2%0 Norway maples, & to 10 feet high, at 2% cents each, and 250 Carolina poplars, 15 to 18 feet high, at 3% cents each. Mr. Babcox will person- ally select these trees and personally su- pervise and approve the planting, pruning and general care of them. Before leaving Ohio the trees will be Inspected by the Ohio state inspectors and will be accompanied by their certificates. The buildine committee of the Board of Fiducation cénsidered Mr. Babcox’s offer and accepted it by unanimous vote March 0. Mr. Daboo will begin to set out the es as s00n as the season will permit. Mr. Babcox's offer to furnish trees to the Citizens of St. Louis for the cost of remov- ing them from Springfield has n ac- cepted by all those ta whom its attention has come, as a splendid opportunity for the ple who own ee to get trees and set em out. Trees of the kinds and sizes of- fered by Mr. Babcox for from 3% to 10 cents h cost in the nurseries from 75 cents to each, with an additional cost of 25 cents eaoh for shipment. Committee Will Distribute Trees. For the purpose of taking advantage of the offer and of systematically distributing the trees to those who desire them a com- mittee of six well Known citizens has oon- sented to take charge of the matter. The committee is as follows: Julius W. Koch, resident of the International Steel Post o., chairman: Guetave W. Niemann, secre- tary of the Title Guaranty Trust Co.; Ben- Schnurmacher, president of the erican Trust Co.;: John R. Parson, dealer and banners; Edward De- of the Devoy & Fuerborn . and Frank EK. Richey, attorney at law. ® method of distributing the trees will probably be as fcdlows: ; they arrive in St. Louis they will be “heeled in’’ the ground at some central point in charge ot a competent gardener who will see that every citizen gets what he has d for. Those who desire trees will pay their money to Mr. Koch, the chairman of the tigzens’ committee, and will be ven a Noe on which will be designated the number and kind of trees he has paid for. At the place where the trees are stored he will be given the trees called for in the re- eeipt and complete printed inetructions for planting, pruning and caring for them. sa copy. will be given to each purchaser of one or more trees: i. sine Received of Mr. Gene, GB. esd e ., being full pa Carolina poplars, from 15 to 1 price of 45 cents each. os feet high, at the The person to whom this receipt is given may mee it as an order on Mr. Arthur G. Babcock. president of the Arthur G. Babcock Landscape Gardening Oo. of Cleveland, O., for the trees or vines named therein at any time after they have been inspected by a competent inapector to be chosen by the citizens’ committee having the matter in charge. Notice by mail will be g’ven to the bolder of each receipt of the date and place in St. Louis where the receipt is to be pre- sented, These rTeceipta can be obtained only from Mr. Juiius W. Koch, chairman of the citizens’ com- mittee, at the office of the International Stee! Post Co., 719 Chestnut etreet. The citizens’ com- mittee will distribute only 5000 Carolina poplars amd 500 fragrant honeysuckles in St. Louis in the spring of 1902. Ordera with remittances by mail will receive prempt attention and rece'pts will be returned Nelther trees por vines can be obtained withont one of these receipts, and there wthll be no other kind of nursery stock on sale whatover. The money paid for these trees and vines is to be deposited with the American Trust Co., and will be retained until after the trees have been inspected in St. Louis to the eatiefaction of the citizens’ committee. If the trees are not received and inspected before May 1, 1902, the money wll be returned to the holder of the re- ceipt by the American Trust Co. When Mr. Babcox offered the citizens of Cleveland, 6000 trees their distribution was placed in the hands of Mr. W. G. Marshall of that city. Within eight davs after the notice of the offer was published in the newspapers 4000 of the trees had been gold. Cleveland Man Has a Post-Dispatch Idea. Mr. Marshal! was so gratified with the in- terest taken by the people in tree planting that he declared he would be one of 26 citi- zens to give each $50 toward a fund to fur- nish prizes for the best small lawns and gardens tn Cleveland. In defining his idea Mr. Marshall said: ‘‘I favor restricting the size of competing lots to # feet front, 80 that the gardens of the wealthy would not be in competition with those of people of lesser means, and the prizes limited to those who did the work on the lawns and gardens themeelves."’ On March 11 the Post-Dispatch made pub- lic a plan whereby the children of 8t. Louis might be induced to take an interest in civic improvement. It was guggested that the school children of the@city. compete in the writing of essays on the subject: “How Can a Boy or Girl Best Contribute, by Home Work, to Beautify St. Louis?’ The subject of the essays relating chiefly to the beautifying of the home surroundings by the cultivation of lawns, flowers, trees. shrubs and vines. The prizes are $20, $15 and $10 in gold for the three best essays from all schools, and a prize of $1 for the best essay from each school. The competi- tion suggested by Mr. Marshall of Cleveland is intended to reach children of an older growth, who could be thus Interested helping to beautify their city by making their own home surroundings lovely with trees and shrubs. In large cities it is almost useless. to plant slow-growing trees, such as elms and hard maples, as they are sure to be stifled by smoke and gases before they are old and strong enough to resist them. Fast growing trees like the Carolina poplar that are capable of resisting smoke, and the Sturdy and rapidly up-springing Norway maples, such as are offered by Mr. Bab- cox, are successful city trees. One of the greatest values to come to St. Louis from Mr. Babcox’'s gift will be the interest it will arouse among the citizens of all clasges in the growth and care of trees. Everybody's interest will be aroused in tree culture, and for every tree thus giv- en away three will be planted next year. The people, having thus a general proprie- tary interest in trees, will give them better care whether they belong to them per- sonally or not, The addition of 5000 trees to the streets and yards of St. Louis will make a percept- ible difference in the beauty of the city and will serve as part of the necessary adorn- ment for the World’s Fair. The trees from Springfield will be In St. Touts on or before April 1. Due notice of their arrival will be published in the Post- Dispatch. WOMAN KILLS A PANTHER. Wounded Him With a Shotgun and Dispatched Him With a Rifle. mer, wife of a construction foreman of the Rock Island Railway, killed a huge pan- ther in the vicinity of their tent that was in the act of springing’ upon her. Conduc- tor J. H. Lee brought the story of the courageous. woman's. adventure to the city. Mrs. Clymer was hunting qual! with a shot gun when a noise in the brush behind her attracted her attention. Turning quickly she saw a huge panther crouching for a eyeing. The woman fired both loads of rdshot at the beast, which retreated bad- ly wounded. Returning to the camp. she se- secured a Winchester and thus armed trailed the panther across the sand and with a well-ainged shot ended nis life. Hillsboro 1 Town Tickets Nominated. HILLSBORO, Ill..

NEW sObhk, March 15. =atter two days of hard fighting the American chess team vanquished the British team tonight, this being the seventh of the _ international series of matches for the Newnes cup. America won 5% games and Great Britain 4%. The distinction of achieving the first victory fell to the Englishmen by virtue of Trenchard's brilliant defeat of Delmar on board No. 7. Almost simultaneously the news that the amateur, Atkins, had low- ered the colors of Marshall came. This was a hard blow, as the Brooklyn Chess Club had reiied upon Marshall and Pillsbury winning their respective games. At that time the outlook was that the match would be lost. Hymes was then in 4diffi- culty and Voight appeared to be beaten. The former, however, soon extricated him- self afid proposed a draw, which Mills ac- cepted. Voight also redeemed himself, the game being eventually drawn. For a long time afterward the score remained at 2 to 1 in favor of England, the solitary win for the American side having been achieved later on the last board by Helms. Pilisbury was unable to make any head- way against Lawrence, and had to be fin- ally satisfied with a draw. Barry made a great effort to win, but could not do so and finally accepted the offered draw. After the agreement of the contending parties the remaining games énded as stated above and the victory belonged to the Americans. The summary of the match follows: 1. Pillsbury 1-2 vs. Lawrence 1-2, Ruy Lopez. 2. Barry 1-2 vs. Mason 1-2, Englisb. RK, Marshall 0 vs. Atkins 1, Queen's gambit de- clined 4. Hodges 1 vs. Lee 0, Queen's gambit declined. 5.

WOMAN'S MIND 4 z * Study of Florence Burns as JEALOUSY ONE STRONG TRAIT -_-—--- —- SHE BETRAYS IT UNCONSCIOUSLY AT THE TRIAL. Analysis of the Woman Accused of Walter Brooks’ Murder and Theories Evolved to Fit the Accusation. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 15.—The question whether Florence Burns did or did not kill Walter Brooks is susceptible of a varia- tion: Did she kill him because he refused to make her his wife, or because of his at- tentions to other women? This variation has several merits. In the first place, it contains a theory which may be false, and which fcr that reason is all the more inter- esting. Second, it has the advantage of lending an air of pseudo-romance to the young per- ~ tee otherwise she could not properly Third, it is in better consonance with the inconsequences of feminine logic, and, fin- ally. it fits the prisoner's looks. hese looks are not unprepossessing. Florence Burns has the appearance of a dairy maid, who, stolid sodan, tomorrow will be stout. For one so young, she seems quite mature. She seems also quite com- posed. Despite this composure, which, if feigned, ig excellent acting, it is pathologically ob- vious that the nervous system of the pa- tlent is defectively nourished. Jealousy is a nervous complaint. Florence Burns is a Jealous woman. Hope Is a Curious Force. A jealous woman does not kill a man be- cause he refuses to marry. S8o long as he is unmarried, she may hope to be his wife. Hope is a force, and a very curious one. Its outposts are thoroughly picketed. In- til the last glimmer of its bivouacs has vanished, always beyond is a sentry. That fentry remains as long as the man is sin- gie. In cases, known us, hope has out- asted marriage and patrolled the frontiers until relieved by death or divorce. though jealous women do not kill who refuse to be thelr husbands, they do kill and have killed and will kill men who are faithless to them. In the hearing last week Mr. Backus, counsel for the prisoner, examined a wit- ess regarding an escapade of Brooks with ewurk girls. During the recital of that escavade Florence Burns listened without exhibiting as much emotion as the quiver of an eyelid may betray. Her teeth were set, her features in perfect control, but from be- month er skirt, in and out, there moved a shos Woman’s Foot Is Talkative. In all the world there is nothing so talkative as a woman's foot. Already the girl's appearance had. been to us sympto- matic of jealousv. The loquacity of the foot confirmed the diagnosis. It did more. It gave her a romantic tnterest which hitherto she had lacked. You saw in her not the commonplace person, who, out of revenge for a promise unfulfilled, yet still fulfillable, had jured a man down to death, but rather a heroine resuscitated from the old dramas of you Greece, the victim of Venus, who prefers a thousand times at any cust to see the beloved lifeless with- out her than living and loving some one There is the romantic interest which the di osis produced. Such other inter- est as the girl has posse has principally to her appearance. seemed incongruous that a girl so could stain her hands in the fashion al- jeged. But there ‘s nothing incompatible in comeliness and crime. Prettiest and Worst of Women. Tn the portrait gallery of history «wo of the prettiest women ere Lucretia Borgia and the Marchioness of Brinvilliers. They figure not alone among the prettiest, but among the worst. In comparison with them, Tsai An, the Dowager Empress of China, is a lovable old lady. here are others, as with women, so with men. Valliant, who nearly blew up the Vrench Parliament, was an attractive fel- low, modest as a maiden and of a sensitive- s which seemingly did not extend to the mber of Deputies. ropmann charmed Tourganieff and de- ted Sardou. He was a handsome boy, h an engaging manner and a sweet voice, yet he slaughtered a family of seven with callousness of a cobra. Then there was nzine and there was also Prado. Both committed atrocities which exceed anything the Ratcliffe highway saw; yet one was a Lovelace, the other a Lothario. Each had a string of women in love with their looks. nd though, to balance matters, Mrs. e, who, with her lover, killed and butchered, looked like a comfortable cook, there must be exceptions, or we could ve no rules. Under What Rule Shall She Be Placed? Under just what rule Florence Rurns comes the future alone may decide. Mean- while, assuming her to be guilty of mur- dering Brooks, even the indifferent have found themselves perplexed at the contra- diction which she presents. lt ed unnatural that a gtr could Peat ® so devilish and so demure. contradiction, however, is. common eno ~ It is iy to ee eee Fo, tary, what peycholo s term personality and plain people the Old Adam.

In a most dramatic way, Mrs. omas ther of Walter Brooks, today at Florence Burns threatened to kill her son.

Ziow He Worked His Way Up From the Police Court to Congress and Some of the Things He Has Done. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch HAVERHILL, Mass., March 15.—A Yan- Kee lawyer has jumped in a few years from the presidency of the New England Base- Dall League to a position in the cabinet of his country. William H. Moody, who only ® few years ago was nothing more than ai country lawyer of unusual brillfancy, is to! fake his seat at the official table of the presicent of the land. He is only another example of the strenuous life. At home Moody is still “Billy” Moody, @nd though a score of receptions are be'ng Planned for him next week, he will prob- ably be just the same genial! fellow he was When he had no aspirations except to get out of Congress and earn the money that his legal ability entitled him to earn.

B. Brickett, as good a soul as ever lived, was Moody's chum. He is dead now. but he would have been the happiest man im the world if he had lived to see this day. How Moody Became a Great Orator. They used to get about all the assault Cases that came up in court, and it was in telling old Judge Carter how Smith had become so vexed that Brown had dec+ erated his eye, and how Jones had made the rag necessary to k ep Smith's head to- Bether, that Moody became an orator. The courtroom was too small for the' crowd when Moody and Frickett were tel!- | tmm—™ these things to see which side should avoid nyaying a $5 fine. but it was these contests in the old courtroom, when Moody | met and defeated the brains of this sec- tion—brains that have heIned «ince to Girect the policy of the country and state— that develoned the argressiveness,. the Dility, the farsightedness that President nosevelt has recognized under the name Strennousness in the country lawyer, ana decided to take to his own use.

George used to be yp to about all the pranks that were going, serenading the girls over at Bradford | cademy to making thines uncomfortable or their friends and comfortable for them- Seivyes. And that spirit today still lives, nd Moody is never happier than when he @ining with his friends or smoking wita em and swapping varns about what they used to do when Brickett was alive. He went from city solicitor to district torney, then to Congress. He had some esitancy about doing that when Congress- man Coggswell died, as he wanted to make Bome money at iaw, and he was several! mes about to give up Congress to get ack into law when he was urged to stay in n take what was coming to him po- tically. and now he is forced In by being tendered an honor that no yvoung man, and Sspecially no young man of New England, ‘can decline. P Moody Has Always Been Aggressive. Moody has been aggressive in everything he ever did. He has literally forced him- self forward, but till now his goal had been the law rather than politics. He was ag- ssive at An lov" r, where he led his c ee, 6 was the ame at Harvard could take a ball off the bat, break chebush line or win a case in the moet trying the boodle aldermen of Law- Fence he fought till he w an beaten by juries that could not agree, and final y sent sev- ‘@ral men to jail.

The virile young district attorney fought so hard that the court ve the maximum penalty of 20 vears and en added 12 more on e charge vof at- tempted burg'ary in the night. Moody had previously sanctioned the pardon of this young man when he had been sentenced On 28 minor charge, but he avowed then and here never to sanction another pardon, and e never has.

Mendez FALL OUT OVER A PLAY PARIS LAUGHS AT’ CORRESPOND- ENCE NOW MADE PUBLIC. “+, . oy ——— It Began With Most Endearing Terms, Then Changed to Mutual Ex- pressions of the Chilliest Nature. PARIS, March 15.—The ‘Parisians are keenly interested in the developments of a quarrel between Sarah Bernhardt and Catuile Mendes, the author and poet, about the production of the latter's poetical drama, ‘“‘Sainte Therese,”’ which had been promised to Comedie Francaise. Mme. Bernharat heard of the drama, begged to be allowed to produce it, ahd M. Mendes withdrew it from the’ Comedie Franéaise and gave it to her, under stipulations ’en- suring a good run, M. Mendes subse- quently took it back, when In full rehearsal. on the ground that Mme. Bernhardt had made ar.angemenis to go to London, which preciuded a satisfactory run for “Sainte Therese.”’ The story has been told in a series of re- markabic letters exchanged between Mme. Bernna-dt and M. Mciiies. wh.ch the jat- ter published. The letters are most amus- ing with their mutual, gushing compli- ments and poetical forms of address, which, however, deteriorated into the chil- ' liest > ab pean as the quarrel became em- bittered. Mme. Bernhardt first addressed M. Men- des as ““My dear beloved poet,’ asking to be alllowed to produce “Sainte Therese” and M. Mendes responded to his ‘“‘despetic sovereign” offering the piece for the coming Scason., Mme, Bernhardt then replied to her ‘‘dar- ling friend,”’ promising to produce it March 1. . Mendes thereupon telegraphed as a reply: “‘Dear Therese—The play and the author are yours."’ Then Came a Decided Change. But later he heard that Mme. Bernhardt was making conflicting arrangements and telegraphed for explanations. This time Mme. Bernhardt merely addressed him as “friend,”’ and explained that her arrange- ments did not affect the production of the Piece. M. Mendes was not satisfied, but wag nduced to leave the play with Mme. Bern- hardt. The rehearsals were begun, but M. Mendes says he found Mme. Bernhardt had let her theater to an Italian company for a period which rendered the promised run mpossible. He realized that all was not — sailing for “Sainte Therese,” and got ack his manuscript which he wrote, e will place in a drawer strewn with red roses, Symbols of his admiration for Sarah Bern- hardt, and with violets, emblems of her fickleness.”’ The last communication of M. Mendes Was written in the third person and was adfressed to “Madame Sarah Bernhardt.” Mme. Bernhardt repiied to the publica- tion of these letters by explaining that M. Mendes was wrong about the arrange- ments which he thought would interfere with his play. She intended to give it a run of 30 nights and could not arrange for a long run because of the risk of osing her London season, which brin a large fum of money, and complained that M. Mendes resorted to a trick to get back the mnanuscript which, he said, was only needed for a few corrections. Calls Him That Man. Mme. Bernhardt concluded her letter as follows “In a terrible fit of despair and tears, I drowned my illusions, hopes, admiratiorr and my friendship for that man. I came out of this crisis a pareent wreck, with nina whirl, but my will safe and ong as I live I will never ad- mire Catulle Mendes again.’ M. Mendes, on reading this, telegraphed as follows to Mme, Bernhardt: “Is it not silly for us to quarrel when, fin reality, we love one another?’ The author-poet then offered to give “Sainte Therese’ to Mme. Bernhardt if she would only promise to run it whi.e it was drawing money. Mme. Bernhardt did not even reply to this communication, whereupon M. Mendes wrote to the Temps, replying to all the points of Mme Bern- hardt’s letter, and concluding, after a fer- vid outburst of admiration for her, that he would await “‘repentance in her dear, royal, cruel heart.”’ The matter thus remains, without hope of a reconciliation.

PAINTERS’ STRIKE WILL LAST Compromise Failed After Committee Accepted Rate and Non-Union Men Will Be Hired. Efforts of conference committees of the Master Painters’ Associationg and the striking Journeymen Painters’ Unions to eeeet a settlement yesterday were unavail- ng. As a result the master painters decided last night to employ nonunion painters and to send to Chicago, Cleveland, Buffalo and other cities for men at once. This an- nouncement was made by A. G. Clark, sec- retary of the Master Painters’ Associations. The preser.t union wage scale Is 37% cents er hour. The union painters are dergand- ng an increase to 4 cents. Ait the commit- tee’s conference yesterday the master painters agreed to pay 40 cents if the men would return to work Monday morning, with a promise of 45 cents Sept. 1. This was satisfactory to the committee, but not to the general body of the striking painters. They oy oe it. ecretary Clark says the first notice the master painters received that an increase in wages would be demanded was on Jan. 1. MAN GOES INSANE AT STATION Flourishes Revolver, but Drops It When Pursued by Policeman and Hides in Train Yard. Sergeant Rea, assisted by Policeman Kel- ler and Detective John Howard, scoured the Terminal yards at Union Station for two hours last night in am effort to apprehend an insane man who escaped from the au- therities during the afternoon. The man acted peculiarly in the waiting room and drew a revolver and flourished it ~ ym oe Policeman Keller placed him under arrest. @ prisoner, who refused to give his name, said he was to leave St. Louls for Grafton over the Bluff line train at 6 o'clock. While the policeman’s attention was distracted the man broke from his rasp and started across the midway at ull speed. As he fled he dropped his re- volver. He turned east on the Midway and went throu the gate where Jack Manion was standing ard. Manion, who has achieved & reputation as a fistic artist, followed. The race continued down the platform 300 yards until the fugitive found a hiding eee among the cars. 1 of the station employes were notified, but no trace of the man could be found. ls p le the fellow was drunk, .

(Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing ©o.) LONDON, March 15.—Dr. Barton intends to compete with M. Santos-Dumont in aerial navigation. At any rate he so in- forms the aeronautical society. before which he has exhibited a model of his alr- ehip. It is acigar shaped receptacle, holding 160,000 cubic feet of hydrogen. As super- imposed upon aeroplanes, driven by 90 horse power motors, has a lifting capacity of 11,000 out and the whole, including the car, weighs 9000 qounds. Dr. Barton is negotiating with the British war office in regard to his machine, which he claims is completely under control and steerable with or agaifist the wind. Hiram Maxim has expressed the opinion that the machinery of Dr. Barton's airship is too heavy, but he wished him every suc- cess in his experiments. Mr. Pearson's offer of $20,000 to M. San- tos-Dumont for a trip from London to FRirmingham remains in abeyance pending a settlement of the contitions of filght. M. Santos-Dumont is holding out for a shorter run, but the London Aero Club thinks a hund miles necessary to test the real practicability of the machine.

(Copyrigbt, 1902, bg Press Publishing Co.) CAPE TOWN, March 15, 6:59 p. m.—There has been no further change in Mr. Rhodes’ condition up to this hour. He is very drowsy, and hardly speaks. His strength is still kept up by means of oxygen and stimulants. The weatner rs warm and not favorable to the sickness. Mr. Rhodes is suffering from an toris. His heart for some time has been radually enlarging, encroaching on the ung space and making respiration difficult. Relief is obtained only by the periodical ad- ministration of oxygen. Dr. Jameson, who has for years been his confidant and medi- cal adviser, is in constant attendance, and no one elac is permitted to be near him but a few close personal friends, whose pres- ence does not excite him. Intimate friends of Mr. Rhodes have known for a long time that he was afflicted with an affection of the heart, but his life has been so vigorous, his health so ap- parentiv robust, his vitality so great. that the occasional weakness of his heart caused no alarm. If Mr. Rhodes himesclf had any secret misgivings 2s to his health, he care- fully concealed it from his friends and b ness agsociates.

(Copyright, 1902, by Press TPublteh'ng Co.) COLOGNE, March 15.—The Holleben. the German ambassador at Wash- ington, says he is well known in Berlin. where he lived for a considerable period without regular work or occupation. After severing his connection with Ret- ter's Telegram Co. he became involved in a law suit with that association, In which he | was charged with attempts to extort mon- ey. He used to visit the editortal offices of the various newspapers to try to interest pereons in his case.

LOUIS ANEW 8 Ignace Jan Paderewski played to an en- thusiastic audience at the Odeon Saturday afternoon. Every seat in the gallery was taken 30 minutes before Paderewski struck his first note. Many persons stood up in that part of the house and there were few vacant places in the parquet. The seven ages of woman were well rep- resented, save for the babe in arms. The school girl was there, so was the aged Srandmother. The fair maiden with the love story in her eyes did not stay at home, tieither did the young wife. The mother of many daughters brought them and. they | stooa next to the girl who earns her living 'by teaching music and in front of the man jand woman who had traveled 20 miles to | see the master's touch. Women of society, | women of homes and women of work. There was no more attentive listener in | | the large audience that greeted Paderewski | , at the Odeon Saturday afternoon than the wife of the noted performer. She sat near the boxes on the left of the parquette, with the son of her husband's manager, a bright boy about 16 years oid. Mme. Paderewski is below the medium in womanly figures,,with features cut like acameo. They aré framed in masses 0 blue-black hair, woven low. at the neck. She was in a black cloth 'gaqwn, a Persian lamb jacket, and a hat of black and white tulle, the brim crossed with straps of cut jet. This she wore well over her face During the first encores she sat perfect- ly calm, watching her talented husband, Not the slightest movement escaped her watcn- ‘ful eye. After the second encore, when he reappearéd, bowing, she arose to her feet and resting her hands on the back of the seat in front of her, she exclaimed, with a foreign accent: ‘“‘He is so tired. If they would only let him rest!’ But they did not, and the little woman's nervous temperament showed itself in her restlessness and the tense look in her eyes. “You are greatly to be admired in being | the wife of so celebrated an artist,’ a young woman said to Mme. Paderewski. “Yes,”’ was the reply, ‘‘very proud.” But there-was nervoygness in the voice. There was anxiety in” the look. The life of a celebrity's wife is strenuous. Madam said the party arrived Friday morning in their private car, in which they remained during their stay in St. Louis, Madam was impressed with the enthu- sSiasm of the audience. All Friday after- noon the party drove through the residence district, and the only word madam had te express her delight regarding it was ‘Beautiful, beautiful!”’ An attempt has been made to compare Paderewski and Kubelik in -their respective realms, but there appears to be little basis for any. Kubelik is a master of his instru- ment, but is still in the hobble-de-hoy stage whe conception is immature and he shows it in spite of technical excellence. Paderewski is a mature artist in execu: tion and conception. His playing is not of that flat, gray, neutral type which feels but does not know its aims. His perfermance Saturday afternoon was like a tropical land- scape full of varied colors and sharp con- trasts of light and shadé. Satisfactory though the performance may have been from a musical standpoint, there was one in the audience who went away unsatisfied. As the crowd edged out to the sidewalk after it was all over a voice said: “We ll, how did you enjoy it?’’ “All right;, only the program was not classical enough. I expected to hear things I’ . never before heard,'’ said an answering voice. She had had her wish and did not know it. * audience that heard Paderewsk!i representative of S5St. Louis. Dr. Ek. Taussig came in early and found seat well up in front of the parquet. Mrs. Ezra Linley and Mrs. Hayward » seated in the middle aisle. were joined later by Miss ward and Miss Ella Daugaday. Miss Grace Priest,.in a tailor gown of blue cloth, came with a party of friends. Mrs. Ware and her daughters, Mrs. Max Kotany and Mrs. Bert Walker, came to- gether Mr. and Mrs. Reid Northrup and their son Murry occupied seats on the right well up in front.

CRANE INTERESTED Chief Executive Striving to Prevent the Tying Up of All Steamship Lines. Post-Dispatch. BOSTON, Mass., March 15.—Gov. Crane undertook a big job when he gave the thousands of strikers in this city to under- stand that he would settle the difference to their satisfaction. It is not entirely settled yet, but thanks to the unremitting efforts on the part of the governor the situation is clearing fast. The principal block to its settlement is the attitude of President Hall of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. The governor has as yet been unable to move him. The Then, according to Mr. Hall, can come back, but his old order that they help un- load teams, which is the main issue over which the men went out, must hold He maintains that as he pays the men he has a right to have them do all the work that he wishes. Gov. Crane pointed out to him that the other roads here do not require this. but it availed nothing. The governor is far from pleased with the attitude of the road. He is quoted as sayin that he believes the strike hsould be settled and that the concession asked of the road is reasonable. The plan is now, it ts said, to have the merchants display to the road what their feeling is on the subject and in a way which cannot be mistaken. apparently may mean a contest with the governor and merchants of the city on one side and the road on the other. President Ryan of the longshoremen to- day called on the governor in a very dis- couraged frame of mind. He complained were the Philadelphia and Savannah hnes were the only ones ready to take back thelr men. Mr Rvan made this significant statement: “If this thing is not settled by midnight Special to the | tomostem. we can close the steamship lines up tighter than a drum and the men will do it!’ This would mean the calling out of long- shoremen at all the southern ports. The governor counseled Mr. Ryan to modera- tion. It is difficult to see how trouble can be averted for several of the steamship lines refuse. to take back any of the men. JUDGE & DOLPH HOUSE WARMING. Splendidly Appointed New Store Is Opened Formally. Member of the Druggisis’ Club and of the medical profession of the city to the number of nearly 300 attended the open- ing of the new Judge & Dolph Drug Store at 615 Olive street, last night. The second floor of the building was ar- ranged for the serving of refreshments. After the serving thereof a vaudeville pro- am was rendered. tl pleased mightily. here was uniqueness tn it. The arrange- ment devolved upon Arthur Davenport, who was styled on the program the master of ceremonies. Besides the druggists and doctors pres- ent there were a number of newspaper meh. Even they,.as hypercritical as they are known to be, could find no fault wit the faultless new store. Cut in the Neck in Saloon Brawl. Charlies McCabe was cut in the neck by John Fortune, the police say, at a saloon, Hunt avenue, ‘at 11 o'clock last night. Fortune zee arrested.

NEW YORK, March 15.—Just what sort of representation the Empire State should have at the great Loulsiana Purchase Cen- tennial Exposition to be held next year at St. Louis has led to much discussion. There is a bill pending at Albany which calls for the appropriation of the meagre pope owns these 1200 acres and leases its land to any applicant of satisfactory personality. e rentai charged is based solely on the value of the ground ieased, from the standpoint of site and productiv- ity. The leases are given for ninety-nine years, so that the renters have «a foothold on the land, and no hesitancy about im- proving the property. “The Fairhope company pays all taxes out of the rents, except the taxes on mon- eys and credits. This plan makes “he land Values bear all the urden of taxation, and realizes the ideal of that great thinker, Henry George. No matter how many im- eo a renter puts on the land he eases, his rent is not raised. Suppose you buy a seat In the theater. You pay a stip- vlated price for it, and the mana does not charge you any more, whether you wear clothing or jewelry valued at a million dollars or attend in the plainest at- tire. After you purchase the seat, it makes no difference whether you attend at all or not, in fact. Just so with the land—the land is worth no more with a house on it than before the house was built, unless there are other causes for an advance in ite value. “Fairhope owna all its franchises.

He had writ- ten a strong letter to Goy. Odell on the imatter and now gives the World his views ;on the commercial value of this great in- dustrial enterprise. The article will appear in the World tomorrow. BY GEORGE J. GOULD. The relations of the ‘great state and Mis- sissippi Valley in a commercial way to the financial metropolis of the country are very close and strong and the city of Bt. Louis being the central city of the great Missis- 'sippl Valley, ought te recefve from the | hands of the city of New York, as well as from the state of New York, proof of friendship, g004 fellowship and support and deep appreciation of the commercial ties that link the two cities together. Every passenger that comes here from St. Louls and the great western country, of which it ts the central point, pays tribute to New York. Every ton of freight that comes here from that point—and they are numbered by the hundreds of thousands—pays tribute to this city. The wonderful marine commerce of this city is not dependent upon New York state nor its {mmediate environment. but upon the great aggregation of states in the in- terior, the most fertile of which are be- tween the Aljecwhanies and the Rocky moun- tains and Canada and the Gulf of Mexico. ro those states, whose interests wil] cen- ter in the St. Louls Exposition, the state of New York ought to extend the hand of fellowship and give just recognition of the debt thet is due to all the great territory for all thet it has contributed to the great- ness of thls imperial commonwealth. The time will come, perhaps, when New York or some other great Atlantic city will undertake an international] exposition, and the eyes of the citizens of this state will then turn to all the other states from here to the Pacific slope, for the expostition’s sup- port and appropriate representation with state buildings and state exhibits, so that the country in all its ndeur of power and strength a roduc can displayed. Dp ts be fully What a Great Exposition. Does. The great international expositions, con- ceived on right lines and formulated with the widest possible scope, present to the observer a compact history of the world from the remotest ages to the present day. This is not generally realized except by those who have given a great deal of study to the motive underlying enterprises of this character. For instance, at the great Paris Expo- sition of 1898, every art ané industry and phase of human life, from earliest ages to the closing years of the last century, were depicted and illustrated The Columblan Exposition of 1893 was re- markable in two ways. First, because of ‘ts broad scope, and also, and perhaps more especially, because of {ts wonderfy! presentation of architectural effects. both in design and construction of buildings and jin the landscape architecture of garden- jing. No other exposition was ever con- celved on so -broa lines, nor have such ‘remarkable effects been produced by happy and artistic combinations of graceful bulld- in and beautiful landscape vistas. fr reference to St. Louls, let me say first that. financially, the enterprise is started as liberally by the city, state and nation as was the Columbian exposition, and that it. has the support of the citizens of St. |Louls and the state of Missouri with equal, lif not greater, zeal than that given by Chi- cago and the state of Illinois to the expo- sition of 1893, There is no question whatever in regard to the financial phase of the great enter- price, for ample funds will be provided to make it a striking success. The very best talent is being gathered together for the reparation of pare of grounds and build- ngs to the end that even finer effects in landscape and architecture, and the com- bination of both, will be achieved, than was presented in Chicago. Opportunity te Show Our Greatness. The Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louls, accentuating, as it will, the first great expansion ‘of territory of the United States, will be a fitting opportunity for displaying to the world the greatness of our country with our new possessions in the West Indies and the Philippines. Moreover, we are now, as it were, a world's power, mixed up with the affairs of the world greater than ever before.

This letter as written has not yet been published in full and I herewith append it: 2 — Pacific Railway Co., New York, Feb. 6, 1902. Hon. Berjamin F. Odell, Governor of New York State. My Dear Sir—With my knowledges of the magni- ficent stretch of country between the Alleghenics and the Rocky mountains drained by the Miseias pp! river and its tributaries, have always been, and am now, strougly impre* with the commanding position of the city of St. Louis, the central city of the great Mississippi valley, and I am deeply in- terester with those who are endeavoring to build up her trade and comnerce. A vital factor in the immediate future in the ad- vancement of these will be the Loulsianana Pur- chase Exposition, the gates of which will be thrown open in a little more than a year, and the plans for which are lald on broad end comprehensive lines. The exposition will not benefit St. Louis alone, nor aid only the development of the remarkable aggregation of states between the Alleghenies and the Rocky mountains, but wiil assist almost equal ly in the advancement of all the states in the union, and all interests and industries throughout the country generally. These international expositions are milestones in the path of progress and civilization, and are s0 recognized by the great nations, and by none more so than by our own, It is not necessary to recall to your mind the liberal action of Congress and of the different states in favoring the Columbian Ex- position, nor its and thelr liberality toward other expositions not international in character, but upon and within narrower bounds as you know, made a large ap- PRESIDENTS SONS TO INDULGE IN EASTER SPORT EAGER DEMAND FOR TWO-YEAR- OLDS IS NOTED.

WASHINGTON, March 15.—The Easter Monday egg rolling at the White Lot’ back of the White House this .year will be unique tn the history of the sport. All the Roosevelt youngsters and their companions will participate. Such an attraction at this great outdoor festival has not been known since the practice began many years ago. In itself, this is a wonderful event. All the children of the city crowd the beautifu] lawns, rolling eggs down the slopes and then tumbling after them. Boys in the prettiest and brightest clothes mingle with young newsboys and little street gamins. Girlg with nurses and without them help to swell the throng. All Washington comes to look on. The marine band plays. Thousands of children make it a merry day, and there will be none gayer this year than Kermit, Archi- bald and Quenten ‘Roosevelt, who are col- lecting a etore.of eggs for. the occasion. These boys are now very industrious at 1. pastim= peculMar to Washington, and which is prelimfmary to the egg rolling. At Least 50,000 Have Been Contract- ed For at Prices That Range From $22 to $24 Each. FORT WORTH; Tex., March 16.—The cat- tle buyers from the Northwest are here, and they are hungry for Texas 2-year-olds. The fact ig that there is not any considerable number scattered around above the quar- jantine lines for sale. There have probably been more 2-year-olds above the quarantine line sold up to this time for May and June delivery than for a number of years past. It is estimated that fully 50,000 2-year-olds have been contracted for at prices ranging from $22 to $24. Five thousand of the Spurs were sold to A. J. Nesbit of Denver; 300 of the O. Xs were sold to John Shelton of this city. The Spurs brought $24 and the O. Xs $23. John . McElroy of Midland sold to Harris Franklin of South Dakota 6000 twos. He also sold 3500 to Clay, Robinson & Co. of Chicago. They Drought $22.50. Mr. McEiroy sold 1000 fours to W. M. Ferguson of Kan- sas at $28. Six thousand twos from the Mil] Irons were sold to Franklin. Frank Co!'{- son of Clarendon. also sold 2000 twos. A. B.

J. GOULD. An appropriation of $50,000 or even §$100,- 000, as suggested, is ridiculously inadequate and will be so regarded by all the great states of the Union. Our state should lead off in this matter and set the pace for all the others, instead of appropriating a trifie and inadequate sum that would of no use whatever for the purpese for which it is intended and which could not fail to make the Empire state look ridiculous, not only in the eyes of our a bag but el- so of the world at large, to whom we must look for hearty support and co-operation in the underta _— I am greatly gratified to see that the sug- ges on I have made have been taken up y the World and some other of our pa rs, and I feel personally grateful to them or the support «they are vi me in this matter.

The prices this year are very satisfactory to the Texans.

Thev give as the reason for the unusual demand at satisfactory prices this vear the fact that the prices for beef at Chicago Kansas City and St. Louis are good, anda that the Northwesterners, with the splendid range they have. can make no mistake in picking up all the Texas twos they can get their hands on.

Ur TWENTIETH How It Gained Its Name of “Fighting 20th,” - REAL AMERICAN _ REGIMENT RAGGED LOT MADE A MOST WON- DERFUL RECORD. How They Captured Caloocan With a Rush—Three of Its Men Win the Coveted Medal of Honor in One Battle BY BRIGADIER-GENERAL FRED- ERICK FUNSTON. WICHITA, Kan., March 10.—When =the “Fighting Twentieth" arrived in San Fran- cisco, on its way to the Philippines, it was the laughing stock of the whole Pacific coast. So far as looks were concerned, the men were certainly not a very promising lot. There was not more than one uniform to every four men, and what clothes we had were in such bad condition that we were nicknamed ‘‘the Ragged Regiment."’ The men were armed with a job-lot of old Springfield rifles; very few had up-to- date weapons. We knew little or nothing about military drill. Probably not one of the six officers knew “fours right’ from “fours left.” We remained in San Francisco for months before we were pronounced “O. K.” Uni- forms and new Springfields were given to us and we were raised to 106 men to a com- parry, making our total strength 1272 men. One peculiar fact about the “Fighting Twentith'’ was that two-thirds of the men Were lawyers. We had in our ranks two + Say, professors, one insurance man and two journalists. It was an out-and-out American regiment. Only 18 were of foreign birth, or one out of every seventy. Nearly all were the sons of well-to-do farmers and none were what you would call “city men.” All the drinkers and the physically unfit were weeded out before we set sail for Manila. Altogether, we got rid of 150 men. As a result of this weeding-out process the health of the regiment was always good, and the sick list very rarely went above 4 per cent, even during the hardships of the campaign. —, battle of Caloocan was the first of any importance in which the “Fightin Twentieth” took part. We were obii ed to drive the enemy out of a dense thicket of brush and bamboo, so tangled that we could not see more than a hundred feet ahead of us. Nearly all our men were right up on the firing line, and in the cmrge we used up 100,000 rounds of ammu- nition. Captured the Town With a Rush. We captured the town of Caloocan with a rush, and for 40 days were under fire from the Fillpinos, Our losses, before the enemy could be driven out of the thicket. were ll men killed and 24 wounded. Perhaps the most dare-devil work done by the men of the “‘Twentieth’’ was the number of dashes they made across bridges and rivers in the fact of a hot fire from the enemy. For instance, on one oc- casion 12 of the Kansans volunteered to tog across a broken bridge that spanned the Bagbag river. When half way across they found that the bridge was too badly broken to hold their weight, and without a moment's hesitation the brave fellows jumped into the river and swam the re- maining distance. The Filipinos were so taken by surprise at this act of courage that they turned and fled. Ina few hours the bridge was repaired and the whole regiment got safely across. A short time after this a daring exploit was performed by Corporal Ferguson, who igs now first lieutenant in the Fourteenth Infantry. The railway bridgce across the Rio Grard de Pampanga, the second largest river .n the Philippines, had been almost destroyed by the rebels, and I had obtained permission to attempt to carry it by as- sault. In order to find out what condition it was in, I selected Corporal Ferguson from among a number of voluntecrs and sent him to cross ths bridge, if possible, and report. Though the enemy was strongly intrenched on the other vide, Fergusen promptly set out, armed with nothing but a revolver. Inder cover of darkness Ferguson crawled from girder to girder until he reached the other side of the bridge, which was 350 feet long. At one place he was obliged to creep along a girder three inches wide, liable at any moment to be dropped to the rushing waters below. He h lit- erally to feel his way inch by tInch, ob- structed by the broken ends of fron rods and without a glint of light to show him his way. Received the Medal of Honor. Right up to fhe nearest insurgent out- post Ferguson went, and then returned to camp by groping his way once more across the broken bridge. For this daring deed he received the medal! of honor, Two other men of the “Fighting Twen- tieth’’ who received the medal of honor Were Privates Trembley and White. I had determined to force a passage across the Rio Grande de Pampanga and asked for two volunteers to swim across and fasten a rope to the other side. I chose Trembley and White for the job out of sey. eral dozen who were very anxious to have it. There were always plenty of volun- teers in the ‘“‘Twentieth,”’ no matter how great the danger might be. Trembley and White each took a rope in his teeth and, under cover of a fire from our sharpshooters, got across t a point 25 feet from the enemy's intrench- ments. Both were stark naked and they had no weapons ‘ There were no trees or they could tie the ropes, actually f stones to which 80 one of them rawled up to the nearest trench and tied his rope to one of the posts of the fortifications. Six feet from the post were three armed insurgents, but they were so terrified by the fire of our sharpshooters and s0 amazed by the audacity of thase two naked white men that both White and Trembley escaped unhurt. The moment the rope was fastened eight of the Kansans sprang upon .a raft and pulled themselves across. Six remained on the further shore and held off the ene- my until the other two returned with rein- forcements. The raft continued to make its trips un- tll we had.100 men across. Then we rushed the trenches and pushed the insurgents from ditch to ditch, until they retreated agg oe yd into the forest. Our loss was two killed and 16 wounded. Stories of the Fighting Twentieth. During the severe fighting around Calco- can a barber shop was siarted in the camp of the Kanzans. The barber solicited cus- tom from one of the soldiers, who replied: “No, thank you; i had a close enough shave yesteracay.”’ As the order to advance at the battle of Caloocan was given a wild yell wae heard from the left of the line An Fnelish of- ficer who was voene the action asked: “What is that?

Casing Was Blown Through Derrick, Wrecking It. | BEAUMONT, Tex., March 16.—While men were pulling the six-inch casing -from a well of the Forward Reduction Co. on Spindle Top yesterday, an explosion ot- curred in the hole, driving the pipes up through the derrick, demolishing it. The workmen narrowly escaped death. The flow of mud and water continued for two hours, and the hole, being without a casing, .: large hole was drilled in the mouth of the well by action of the mud stream. Into this hole the rotary and other machinery tumbled and was lost to view, even after the flow stopped of its own accord. The slush and mud were so deep as to make it tmpossible to get near the hole. The well was about 850 feet deep.

NEW YORK, March 15.—Which Is all very well as far as it goes. Butin real life it goes further. Edna May was good to look at in her 8Sal- vation Army uniform, but Edna Ellis, who last week married Henry A.

When she gave up rescue work to marry her aged suitor she left behind her @ record that will live in hundreds of homes d in hundreds of human hearts. re.

Many disastrous and fatal accidents have been ilirectly caused through Epilepey or Fits. long ago a prominent actress naArred performance by baving an eplieptic at. cently a New York paper published an account of a young lady being seized with a fit and faliine from the third floor of a building, sustaining fatal mo ries: but it was left for a citizen of Vinita, I.

The pony became frightened.and started to run; Bil odway, who was near by, made a great iasso throw, caught the pony and eaved Chonteau's life. Chouteau had been warned not to ride, as he was subject to terrible attacks of eplhepsy since infancy—the attacks coming sume- tines three or four times a week. Chwuteau about this time began taking Dr. Fred EF. Grant's cure for Epilepsy, and to quote his ows words, ‘'] have never had an attack since.’" As this occurred in "96, be is beyord a doubt permanently cured. Dr. Fred E. Grant, spoken of In the above, is a re- nowned physician, who bas made a life study of the cause and cure of Epttepey or Fits. He has prepared a remedy which is a purely vegetable compound, and he empbatically states that this reparation will permanencly and positively cure ts in all ite forms, no matter from what cause. He wishes to convince everyone that his statement is a fact: he therefore asks every person in the United States suffering with Epilepsy or Fits to send their name and address to Dr. F Grant, 918 New Ridge bidg., Kansas i and receive absolute ; free a large bottle of thie wonderful remedy. Remember, it is not a sampie bottle, but a large, full 16-ounce bottle, and if Yeosts you nothing. From the marvelous cures that have been mnade, it can be positive'y stated that every case will be permanently cured that tahes this treatment. Our advice is, write today ad take advantage of this generous offer. Sa —— pa brought the courtship to a close. It was a real courtship, too, developed congenial tastes and kindred aims. And now they are married—which is as it should be. Not only because they love each other or because all good romance ends that way, but because it justifies a golden text. It more than justifies. Miss Ellis cast her bread upon the wa- ters—and it came back cake. TO CHECK MORMON INVASION. School Superintendent: Makes Order Keeping Elders Out of Buildings. PARKERSBURG, W. V., March 15—State Superintendent of School Thomas Miller has taken summary action in regard to stopping proselyting by Mormon elders in this state. He has notified all school trus. tees that Mormons are not a religious de- nomination, within the meaning of the law, and that they cannot be allowed the us of schools in the state for the purpose o holding services. In most of the country dstricts where the Mormon elders are working there is no other place to hold services. Over 100 elders are prosetyting in this state, and last year they made over 300 converts.

M’KENZIE, March 15.—John Allen and Julla Reynolds were determined to marry despite pareftal objections, so Thursday night, after the young lady’e parents had retired, John mounted his mule and rode over to his sweetheart’s house and she made her escape through a window, and both mounting the mule rode to town, where Squire W.

NATCHEZ, Miss., March 15.—One of the preliminary moves toward municipal own- ership of public franchise was made when the board of aldermen appointed a commit- tee of five to employ an expert hvdraullc engineer to appraise the value of the local waterworks and sewer company. The legis- lature passed a bill authorizing the is- suance of $150,000 municipal waterworks bonds to purchase the plant or baild an- other plant under the ordinance granting a frunchiso to the company. Mr. R. Burton, of New York. one of Its largest stockholders, is here for the purpose of dis- cussine the matter with the board. ATTENTION To physical warnings will often prevent a serious illness.

Not all these symptoms will occur at once or in any single case, but any one of them indicates a disordered condition of the stomach and other organs of diges- tion and nutrition. A prompt cure of these conditions will be effected by the timely use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It heals dis- eases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, perfectly and permanently. Many diseases, seemingly re- mote from the stomach, have their origin in a diseased condition of the organs of di ion and nutrition. "Golden Medical scovery” cures through the stomach diseases which have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach. and hence diseases of liver, lungs, heart and other organs are by use of the " Dis. covery.” It contains no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine, or other narcotic.

SUNDAY MORNING-8T. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MARCH 16,190. —————————————— * Ny $ oe , ‘ee » a. ta , \ - wy ‘ts - ‘ \ ’ OF FINE QUALITY & Of a Different Grade From Spindle Top Output. NEW GUSHER IS A WONDER SPOUTS SEVENTY FEET AND IS FREE FROM SULPHUR. Drillers Declare It Will Prove to Be the Equal of Anything on Spin- dle Top Heights JOUR LAKE, Tex., March 15.—The gush- et of the Atlantic and Pacific Oll Co., on | the property of the Sour Lake Springs | Co., has proved itself to be an oil well of the firet quality. The most conservative , estimate placed upon its output should its future flow be anything like the perform- ance of the 7th instant, will be over 30,000 barrels per day. The oll is of a different grade from the | Spindle Top output. It is of a rich golden | green color and very light in body, and as far as practical tests can demonstrate, free from sulphur. This was demonstrated by the drillers working in the gas thrown out the well while they were setting the S-Inch casing. While this work was in cro one the well got away once or twice and gushed high in the derrick, but by Tunning the pumps at extra speed the well's effort to free itself was overcome, and it was soon placed under control. Should the opinions all expressed as to the ~ a illuminating and lubricating qualities of this oll be confirmed by analysis there | is no doubt that Sour Lake's oil will be an important factor in the markets for such ol! in the future. The coming in of this gusher was some- what unexpected, although experts had icted that the Sour Lake field would be lly as rich as the Beaumont. Drilling of this well was resumed on Thursday, the 6th instant, and the pipe was sunk that after- noon about five feet.

You may be dazed for a moment at the enormity of this offer, but don’t remain dazed too long, or you will be too late to get The proposition we make you has never been equaled, and it will require quick action on your part if you do You not wish to be among those who have their money returned, You Are Protected by Collateral Worth Fully the Amount Then Act Quickly Invest. THESE TWO PROPOSITIONS DESERVE YOUR CAREFUL CONSIDERATION With each share of stock you purchase in the Continental National Oil and Refining Co., at its par value price of 1|O cents a share, you receive absolutely free one barrel of oil. This is by far the greatest oll proposition offered in the Beaumont field today. You take no chances whatsoever. Each share of stock is protected by col- lateral worth on the open market more than the amount you invest, and as safe as government bonds. YOU CANNOT LOSE If you purchase 160 shares of stock ($16.00 worth). You receive in addition to your stock certificate an oil certificate, under the corporate seal of the com- pany, good for 160 barrels of oil or one car load. Fighty shares of stock and a certificate for elghty barrels of oil are the smallest certificates that will be issued. Your ofl certificate alone can be sold for at least the amount you pay for both certificates, and you will then have your stock certificate remaining, which has virtually cost you nothing. Our First Well Is a guaranteed Gusher with a capacity of at least 50,000 barrels daily. We will reserve from our first well sufficient oi] to redeem al] oll certificates presented by our stockholders or any one holding our oil certifi- cates. The oil to be delivered at our well. AND WE WILL FURTHER AGREE To attach and make connections with an independant pipe line that has tankage sufficient for all ample purposes, and the necessary loading racks at Gladys City, where connection can be made with any railroad. The Independent Pipe Line Company's present charge for taking the oil from the well and running through their pipes, storing and loading, is 2 cents per barrel. We are assured that this price will be reduced to 1 cent per barrel, provided we can run five million barrels through their lines in one year. YOU WILL AGREE WITH US That this is a fair proposition. We have no right to ask you to take chances on the company paying dividends on its stock from the sale of its oil. We want to protect you fully and let you in on a ground floor plan. We know that this is not the usual way that oil companies are floated, but it is our way, and it is a decent way and is bound to win. THEN AGAIN, we will have millions of barrels of oil, but we must have money to market it. Tank cars, storage tanks, pipe lines, etc., are needed. We want to sell sufficient stock to purchase these things, and we want you to feel that vou are fully protected to the full amount you invest. Besides protecting our stockholders, we do more, for the reason that each stockholder will likely sell his oil certificate to some manufacturer, and be the means of starting him to use oll and, through our stockholders’ co-operation in most cases the manufacturer can be made a regular customer of the Contl nental National Oil and Refining Company, and much good wil] result there- from to the Company, and its stock will soon be on a good dividend-paying basis. THIS OFFER WILL NOT LAST LONG. When we have sold sufficient stock to furnish the necessary equipment to store and market our oil, this offer will be withdrawn without further notice. So we advise you to come in now. You will have one year from the date of your certificate to present same at our wells and secure the delivery of your oll. The oil certificate will be delivered to you with your certificate for stock. —_ Lt i ee ee ee ee eee = _—_ —_ i i i i i a a a ll ll ill, Kg A FREE TRIP TO TEXAS AND RETURN TO YOUR HOMES, Seeing is convincing.

The question most frequently asked by those interested in buying oil stocks is: “If you have a good thing why do you want to let others in on it; why don’t you put up the money yourselves and keep the good thing?” Our answer invariably is: Our stockholders would like very much to buy all the Treasury Stock offered for sale; but they have put up a great deal of money, in fact, all they can spare from their respective lines of business, knowing the returns in the shape of dividends will be heavy; but they cannot afford to take too much money out of their business, it might seriously cripple it; then again, there is so much money to be made out of this company they will be satisfied with their share, and are willing to allow others an opportunity to feather ‘their nest. We need some more money for pipe lines, tank cars, etc.,etc.,and for a little while longer we propose selling stock at §0Q cents per share (par } value $1.00).

Utilizes Crude Oil and Is a New Power. INVENTOR SAYS IT IS BETTER THAN ELECTRICITY. — oe ae Zt Is Portable and Can Be Used on Steamships, Street Cars and for Stationary Motor Pur- poses. TOLEDO, O., March 15.—Col. William Heckert of Findlay, O., but now practically a Toledoan, is one of the most sought-after men in the country today. There is scarce- ly an hour when he is not waited upon |‘ by representatives of some railway com- pany, manufacturing concern or steamboat line. They all want to confer with him regarding the mechanism of a certain plece of machinery, which is being thoroughly tested and applied practically before it is to be offered to any one or any company @s @ practical utility. The C., H. & D. Railway Co, a some western lines have already arranged for an inspection by the proper committees, and, without a single instance, thus far, every practical or scientic man who has investigated this plece of mechanism is simply amazed. It is called a ‘“‘trimotor.”’ It is a combina- tion of the steam boiler and steam and gas engines, or, as might be more correctly stated, a substitute for these three devices, with the defects removed. It is more com- pact and fully as simple in construction as the usual run of steam engines, It does its own firing, generating just the amount of agg ea of steam required to do itg wor ny archer only a small amount of water and using the same over and over again, only such an additional supply of water being necessary as is lost by leak- aca st t dispenses absolutely with firemen, boll- ers, amokestacks, cinders and the insuf- ferable and ever-present smoke nuisance. The motor can be started, stopped and reversed just the same as any of the best steam locomotives. It shows a proper de- sign and mechanical conformation to cer- tain natural laws, under which nearly all of the heat of combustion can be converted into motive power or made avallable for lighting and heating houses. The best engineering practice heretofore has’ made only about one-eighth of the same heat available. This great waste of fuel has long been a source of perplexing annoyance to the engineering wo rid, and many have been the attempts to solve the problem by improvements upon the steam and other en- gines, but all without success. The Inventor’s Strange Prediction. Referring to the use to which the tri- motor may be applied, Mr. Heckert said: “Soon we may see steamships plowing the | ocean with increased speed, but without smokestacks, boilers or coal bunkers. In lace of this coal one-four’+ “‘« weight n oll will furnish better power. Tt can be stored in perfect safety in sea com- partments and fed to the trimotor auto- matically through the pipes arranged for that purpose “The machine {is subject to perfect con- trol from any desired point above deck. even while the lower deck may be entirely filled with water. The removal of all the useless weight of the coal would not sake add profit in carrying capacity, with in- creased speed, but In times of war would oreate a revolution equal to that of the)! turreted monitor and the present armor- | clad warship. “Locomotives without smokestacks, with increased veloc city from Boston to Ear Wrancisco, with the addition of only a f wrrels of water and crude oi] on the wa costing less than one-fourth the pres- ent .ost of motive power. The same con- dition will apply to street cars, where trol- ley power houses, boilers, engines and dy- namos can be abandoned with a saving of fully one-half the present cost of construc- = and two-thirds the cost. of operating, | the addition of independent action to every car in use, is also applies to the smaller motor carriages now in use and, finally, the tri- otor will provide power, licht and heat r houses and all other purposes at less than one-half of the present cost under ex- isting ethods of heating, lighting and — power, This invention ll al- greatly stimulate and give a new field to the crude oll industry, which ts fully as versified in point of locality as coal. The scoveries also embody a process for the quefaction of natural gas, now wasted, a superier fuel for trimotors, and it rther extends to the economic erection gas and liquefying plants at all coal noe. utilizing the entire output In a — uct far superior in quajity and quan- ty to that now produ », and a natural aptibility to every line of human bene- t in the manufacturing and commercial world.” .Mr. Heckert has already, in a practical thoroughly demonstrated the ab- certainty of every point of merit for this wonderful world-revolu- pas invention.

The week locally in grain closed more favorably than it began as far as sentiment and feeling ig concerned, but at a loss in values, which was most marked in the high- er price” cereals, the coarser grains show- ing better recuperative powers, owing to their environments, which were favorable to better prices late. The weather and crop conditions were the ruling influences in wheat throughout the week. The abundant rains in the entire winter wheat belt, and in particular in the drouth-stricken Southwest had a very benefiicial effect upon the crop, which later was favored by mild and spring!ike weath- er. A condition that was followed later in the week by a change to colder weather, the temperature in the Northwest taking a sudden drop, and predictions following for colder weather in the West and Southwest. The market early in the week was buoyed up by the report « the reserves in farmers’ bands, ac cording to the government report and Bra: istreet’s eaiculations based upen this report iinted to A small imcrense in the visible and invisible supplies, 'Tt was éethuweated that baeed wpon the perrentagé (of wheat in farmers’ bands, on a crop of 6v,- 000.000 bu, the farm reserves would amount to 156,030,000 bu.

But let some honorable member on the op- position benches make the slightest ref- erence to the colonial] secretary and at once the trim, well-dressed figure is promptly on its feet with a correction or contradic- tion, and the keen, alert face is seen far too wakeful for his critics. Mr. Balfour, instead of cutting a heroic and commanding figure at the table, is doubled up on the treasury bench, with his legs resting against the table in a graceful arch, Other well-knewn Men on the front benches recline in their seats with an abso- to appearances. Both corn and oats this week broke loose from the higher priced cereal and throughont a greater part of the week has dictated to that grain. This was particularily true of the first named which has shown more strength and fewer losses and hae cage for some time. The bullish influence in both these grains were the heavy rains checking re- ceipts, which were emall at all receiving points and the vernment report both of which imported a very ullish feeling during the week. The offictal .Indications if farm reserves were sald to be the smallest in corn for 20 years, and exceedingly limited for oats. A better influence was the ex- port movements, the total clearances for the week amounting to only 183.414 bu, the lowest record for many years, as compared with 852.406 bu last week and 3,.24@57% bu last year. Traders, how- ever, appeared te be indifferent to these exports, and a atrong speculative movement was had in the May option here and elsewhere, and so well wos the market sustained that the close yesterday showed a gain In May of \4c for the week and of “ec for July, the former clearing at 62%c, the latter at 62%c elso. The strengthening tnfluence in wheat aside from the emall farm receipts was the strong specula- tive position of wheat.

The picture, which is an immense canvas, is held by the authorities until the duty is Mail Service to Farmers Be- coming Very Great. 16,000 NEW ROUTES ASKED RAPID INTERCOURSE BETWEEN CITY AND COUNTRY. Circulation of Magazines and Newspa- pers Amazingly Increased in Outlying Districts—Coun- try Storekeepers Benefited. WASHINGTON, March 15.—Although the postoffice department only asked the House of Representatives for an urgent defici- ency appropriation of $220,000, with which to provide by July 1, 1992, a total of 8600 free delivery routes, $500,00 was given on Jan. 25. For the next year the department has requested an appropriation of $6,250,000. As Congress has decided to increase the car- riers’ salary to $600, this amount will prabably be raised to $7,500,000. The fourth floor of the postoffice building presents an interesting scene. Here is the division of rural free delivery, as busy a hive of industry as can be found in any department of the capital. City dwellers, even in Washington, have only a vague idea of the wonderful growth of this ser- vice, whose very inception dates back but a few years, but which now bids fair to endow country life, in every section of our vast domain, with the only essential it lacked to make it the most delightful ex- istence on earth— —namely, rapid intercourse with the great urban centers. This desideratum is being gradually ex- tended in every direction, through the op- eration of the system of rural free deliv- ery. To say that the farming population is desirous of being served by frge_deliv- ery of mail is but mildly to state the case, the fact being that our agricuiturisig are determined to enjoy the same privileges as those provided by the government for dwellers in towns. The pressure for the extension of rural free delivery has become nationa. Despite the great increase yarly in tha sums pro- vid by Congress for the pony Ben ra and maintenance of thia work, the service has necessarily been behind the immense de- mand for it by the people of all parts of the eg 4 Sixteen thousand petitions have been re- ceived for routes; by July 1, 1902, probably 9000 will have been disposed of, ‘eaving 10U0 untouched for the work oft next year ‘To establish 6000 or 6500 routes during the oom- ing year will test the availabie force of the department; and by July 1, 1903, with pos- sibiy 14,000 routes in operation, ths post- master-general will still have on nand vé@00 or 7000 unexamined petitions. Nothing more marvelous has been ob- served in the establishment of the routes than the demand for money orders, 175,000 of these notes being issued through 2000 rural carriers on their routes during the first year this service was undertaken. One by one the facilities of the postoffice have been added to the rural system, until to- day the rural carrier may be looked upon as a traveling postmaster. The farmer realizes that the value of his acres is increased by their location on a rural free delivery route, and besides this comforting knowledge he receives through the free delivery system daily items of in- formation that mean just the difference be- tween success and failure in the disposal of his crops. Not only are the requirements of the market and the schedule of prices communicated to him every day, but the distribution by the rural carriers of fore- casts of the gg Bet 24 hours to about 42,000 families ie farming dis- tricts is one of the ae mirable methods for the utilization of scientific knowledge for the benefit of the agriculturist that was ever devised. The circulation of magazines an papers {is being amagingly increased t the workings of the free deliver One Illinois route of 25 miles traversed ‘ally by carrier has increased its demand for pe- riodicals from almost nothing to 22 daily papers, 82 semi-weeklies, 71 semi-weekly county papers and 60 weekly county pa- pers. Even the country storekeepers, who at first objected to the system because of a fear that the mall order trade from the large cities would injure their business, now see that, on the contrary, their sales are enlarging. Luxuries whic were for- merly unknown are becoming necessities, and the country merchant feels justified in carrying a better and a fresher line of goods, for where formerly one customer crossed his threshold, a dozen now order by — A.

PARIS, March 15.—‘“What is your per- formance to consist of?" a critic respect- fully inquired of Mile.

The statement would not be as accurate mow as it was then. Otero does not dance and sing as much as she did, for it is be- ginning to bore her. But she wears even more diamonds.

Miller, a Missouri river Steamboatman, says the Missouri river did not sink so many steamboats as were sunk masters, and that the reason steamboat- ceased on the river is that insurance on Missouri river boats became so stiff a boat owner could not stand it, However these things maybe, it is a thing to see this great river, day day, and never a boat of any sort ‘upon it.

A. W. MILLER. HE Missouri river, one of the greatest arteries of commerce in the United States ar the world, ts to be improved a, eo far as the efforts of one snag- expending an ae pepenpeesee of “wi is es «cr pa knee “| records of the commission will show, that during the eight months of annual naviga- tion there has been an average depth in the channel of four feet six inches. That's enough for any craft on the Mississippl and is surely sufficient to maintain a flour- ishing steamboat trade on the Missouri. The people ask why nothing is done. It is because they do not take the right steps to insure improvement. In 10 years this river has been given an intermittent appro- priation. Sometimes the sum has been large enough to carry on a creditable sys- tem of work. Again we have been forgotten by congress and when the next came along, after a lapse of a year or so, the bulk of it would have to be expended in patching up the fleet Took at the plant now. For practically two years it has laid up at the bank at the mouth of the Osage. Three hundred thou- sand dollars worth of good river property is going to waste swiftly. There is even no use for it in the Mississippi! and so it rots up there in the Missouri while Con- gress continually ignores the value of the work it conld accomplish, There is a fleet of barges, four plile-drivers, one twoboat, with a valuable iron hull, and three smal! towboats. They lay in idleness against the shore and one long snagboat is detealed to clear the river from the Mississippi to Kansas City. That is not so important as it would be if the banks were secured and the thannel did not shift. Last summer but one wreck showed itself between the Mississippi! and Omeha. Thit was the boilers of the Ray- mond,sunk 3 years ago four miles below the mouth of Grand river, opposite Brunswick. This spring there may be a dozen bad holes below Kansas City. What we need is not more water or the snags drawn, so much as a completion of the revetting and diking undertaken. This could be accom- plished if Kansas City, St. Joseph, Atchi- son, Glasgow, Booneville, Jefferson City, Herrmann and Washington would act to- gether. Enough pressure could be brought to bear to send the Missouri valley con- gressmen into the hottest kind of a fight for a respectable appropriation and would in the end result in making the Missouri per- manently navigable to Sioux City. It seems strange to me that the farmers along the river have not appreciated before the value of such a movement. There ts no finer land for agriculture than that along this stream. Over that soft. sandy, crumbling stratum that fe ever a prey to the swift currente and constantly gives way slipping Into the water, is a layer of the richest soil on earth. It extends to a depth of five and six feet and ever yields abun- dantly. This sandy subestredm is what causes the trouble. The water washes it into the channel. Not only does a rod or so of a man's farm slip into the river, but a new bar is formed of which the pilot of the on- coming steamer knows nothine His only guides are the eddies in the water and the geneFal aspect of the bank Ti wae not lack of water that killed seamboating on the Missourt. This has been accomplished by unscrupulous boat owners whose tactics have forced insurance rates so high that shippers will no longer take the chance. Many years ako the re- port went abroad that the Missuurl was a treacnerous stream and that no property was eafe upon it. Men who owned wornout boats | them to the guards, placed «a maximum insurance thereon, and sank them ‘an the maneuri.. The stream had such a ehh aie > Se Sees As ¥ “vv he RS gone, but the insurance companies boosted the rates so high that business was swiftly There is no reason on earth why this condition should remain.

This was the beginning of a virtual abandonment by Congress of the purpose to make an effective, general improvement of the river for navigation. In 1897, 1898 and 1899 the appropriations were $300,000 per year and, in 1900, $250,000. In five appropriation acts, 1896 to 1990, 17 detached localities were named where work was to be performed, one of which was in the Kaw river. The effect of this large re- duction of appropriations and scattering the small amounts available to points from Omaha to Pelican Bend, a distance of 350 miles, was disastrous. The systematic work on the first reach came to a full stop. The unit cogt of the various kinds of work was largely increased by.the necessity for mov- ing steamboats, barges and pile-drivecs over long distances and returning them to the boatyard at Gasconade, or making ex- pensive provision for their care at other points during the winter season. The work- ing plant became depleted, there being 0 funds available for renewals. The chang- ing of working forces, in taking up separate pleces of work, was also very expensive. The work at these localities was detached, that is not connected with any other work, and subject to destruction by change in the flow of the river. What is absolutely necessary for proper control of the river.and for the permanency of works ts that the regulation should be continuoous downstream, so that works once placed shall not be destroyed or ren- dered useless by changes of the approach of the flow from above. On account of the soft material of its bed and banks and ‘ts great flood velocities, the contro] and regu- lation of the Missouri river is as difficult as that of any river in the country save that of the lower Mississippi, where the same condition exists in an aggravated form. The difficulty consists almost en- tirely in making the works stand on sueh an unstable foundation, and many devices have been tried in their construction. That works can be made to stand, and that the river can be fully controlled and regulated has been abundantly proven by the work done by the commission, and at a cost that is not excessive when compared with other river improvements. The genera! improvement of the Misseur! river—opening it to commerce and carrying with it as an Incident the complete protec- tion and great enhancement in value of all property along ite banks—is a matter to be urged by the people of the Missourt vallev. Two chairmen of the rivers and harbors committee told me that while many ap- peared before the committee asking for ap- priations for the Missouri river, it was a rare thing for anyone to ask for a genora! improvement of the river. The efforts to localize appropriations dur- ing the last few years have prevailed to such an extent ar to completely paralyze the general work. As a consequence, the effective improvement of the river will probably be postponed until such time as there will be an awakening of public sent!- ment to the desirability of its accomp!ish- ment. In the meantime Congress will prob- ably be forced to yield to demands for fragmentary, disconnected works, whict., !1 the aggregate, will cost more than complete improvement without restoring commerce to the river. : There are 45% miles of continuous work that was nearly completed, but which has suffered deterioration on account of funds being directed to other places. In addition, there are 18 localities between Omaha and the mouth of the river that have been im- proved some. They will aggregate about 45 miles of river. By CAPT. H. M. CRITTENDEN.

Thus it is to be seen that the greitost menaces to the safety of navigation have its bed, the total number of accidents from been thé snags and rocks, which abound tn: these two causes being 24. The next prin- cipal cause of wrecks has been fire. In the majority ef instances disasters from this cause have been due to sheer carelessness. . asinthe cases of the Butte and Chippewa, where lighted candles were carried in the hold, A notable wreck was that of tne side- wheel steamer Bedford, engaged in the 8t. Louis and St. Joseph trade, which struck a snag at the mouth of the Missouri river on the night of April 25, 1840. A large hole waa knocked-in her bottom and, ffi about a minute, she sank to her hurricane deck. A severe rainstorm was raging at the time, and a number of persons were lost in the darkness. The fatalities are placed at 12 or 14. A trunk, containing $6000 In specie, was lost and never recovered. Many persons were killed and wounded by the ex- plosion of a boiler on the sternwheel steam- er Big Hatchie on July 25, 1845, as the bout was passing Hermann. The Boreas No 2, a sidewheeler, was fired near Hermann in 1846. The boat was loaded with silver Dullion and Mexican money, which was stolen and never recovered. The wreck of the Bowling Green, which went upon the rocks at the head of Osage Chute Dec. 12, 1842, still shows where she went down. The Chippewa’s end came in May, 1861, 15 miles below Poplar river. Fire was discovered at supper time on a Sunday evening. The boat was run ashore and the passengers put off, and she was then turned adrift to avoid danger to property by the explosion of powder aboard. The . boat drifted across the river and nearly a mile down and, just as the fire had reached the water's edge, blew up. The disaster was caused by deckhands who entered the hold with a lighted candle. It is presumed . that they tapped the whisky barrels; be- came intoxicated and knocked over the candle. Cora Islend, near Bellefontaine Bluffs, owes its existence to the wreck of the Core No. 3,-engaged in the St. Louis and Fort Benton trade. She struck a snag Aprfl 18, 1869. She was owned by Capt. Joe Kinney of Boonville, Mo., and Capt. Ed Baldwin was the pilot. Barth and @rift- wood caught by the wreck made the pres- ent flourishing island.

It Is true that we are the only country which has parades, but if you were to go to the farthest corners of the earth you find tie sons of Erin celebrating this day. In Sidney, Melbourne and Adelaide, Aus- tralia, the day is celebrated on as elaborate scale as in America. In Cape Town, South Africa, in Germany, in France, in Rome— well I could include all the nations of the universe and say some material part of their population are devotees of St. Patrick. The first clergyman to serve as grand marshal of the St. Patrick's Day parade was the Rev. Father Timothy ¥. Demp- sey, rector of St. Patrick's Church, Sixth and Biddle streets. He was fellowed in 1900 by Father O’Leary; last year Rev. James Casey, rector of St. James Church in Clifton Heights received the honor.

But the boys have gone so fast of late tombstones. Let me see. Why, four of the old-time end-men have died within the pasg two months. Billy Rice, Jack MHaver'y, Billy Emerson and Billy West. Let me take up my acquaintance with these men chronologically and tell you about them. To begin with myself is nec- essary in @ measure in order to introduce Emerson. I lerned to dance naturally, picked it up, as it were, on the sidewalks, and before I knew it could make my feet talk. Long before this Billy Emerson was on the stage and in the very midst of his great hit, “The Big Sunflower." He was a hero to me, I can tell you. Why, I used to hang around his hotel to get a look at him. [f was consumed with admiration of his sing. ing and his gracs on the stage. This was in 1868. Shortly afterward I went on the stage myself. You ought to have seen the stage I went on. It was the limit—a free- and-easy run in connecticn with a beer hall. I was billed as ‘‘The Buffalo Boy,” and my specialty was in the song-and-dance line. An interesting fact in this connection is that the man who played the fiddle for me in that old beer hall was Dan Emmett, the immortal author of “‘Dixie.”” He could play, too. Emerson was in a near-by thea- ter dong “The Fig Sunflower” and his spe- clalties. One night he either came in to get a glass of besr or to see me, I don't rightly remember which. I flashed upon his startled vision on tho stage in a white duck suit and danced and sarge the best I knew how. I was nearer to stage fright than ever before, however, be- cause I was doing my turn before the man I had regarded as my ideal. I was only a somehow and =. te Pn », ee 2 | —* a oe hans at Gp a: OE ERROR eet ee ee eRe take ts ee 4 ; s . er eon ie ol ae : “yy a: “ , — arg a ———_—_——————— ee looked at Emerson. He appeared to be very much interested in a glass of beer and several noisy companions. I could see his diamonds flash every time he raised a hand. ' I had scarcely gone off the stage when Emerson appeared behind the scenes. “‘I would like to eee that boy who did the dancing turn just now,” he said. I was introduced as ‘‘Master George.’’ Emerson kindly asked me where I got my knowledge of dancing. When I told him I had picked it up without training he paid me some very fine compliments. Hewaid: “My boy, if I had your feet and my pipes I wouldn't TM sorerrgit n WAY ‘es. ‘er eeeeem Ly \ RAW WY Every old-timer knows how Emerson could sing in those days. He had a clear, high tenor and sang absolutely without ef- fort. Later on he made his second great hit with ‘‘Are You There, Moriarty?’’ Shortly after my first meeting with Em- erson I met Billy West, the second of the four great iuatbets who have recently died. We were both two woung. rosy-cheeked fellows in 1869, when he was dancing in a concert hall in Buffalo, and I was doing my turn in another cnly a block away. We were business rivals, our turns at this time being almost alike. Stories were brought from one to the other by mutual! friends, a oo — SRI eel TO i . - - do our dancing turn. ve - .g ntnk Dee aot. % Dee ge ity > sacl a OP ROT eS EON Ri LEGGE! PA i OGRE OR BE EA Ne Ot * Per Re i pleat a Ree ay ’ and we were intensely anxious to meet, but could never do so. I wanted to see West dance and West wanted to see me dance. One day in the fall of 1869 we met on a gatreet corner accidentally and were intro- duced by an acquaintance, and six months later we had launched out for ourselves un- der the firm name of Primrose & West. Billy was one of the finest fellows under the sun to get along with. Our first engagement was to go with John O'Brien’s circus. The “negro priv- lege,’ as it was known in those days, was held by Doris and Batcheler. Well, Billy and I contracted to dance in the con- cert after the regular circus for $15 each per week and 5 per cent of the ticket sales. We had to sell the tickts. Ah, those were the halcoyn days! As I said before, Billy and I had to soll the tickets. We went among the spectators shouting, ‘‘After the big show, ladies and gentlemen, a concert will be given In the smaller tents adjoining, all for the small sum of a quarter of a dollar—only a quarter of a dollar, gentle- men. Tickets may be purchased now for the concert.” When we had sold all the tickets pos- sible we would go down and black up and It will seem funny when you know that in the concert with us, doing a double Dutch singing turn, were George 8S. Knight, since dead, and Charley Ellis, the Dutch comedian and yo- dler, and Harry Kernell, also deceased. Then we went to New York under the management of George Tyler at the old Olympic, on Broadway, where we played for two months. A song with which. we made a hit at that time was “Love Among the Roses."" Another favorite was ‘“‘Quit That Tickling Me.”’ At that same old Olympic Theater with Billy West and myself was a cast that would put any of the modern vaudeville houses to sleep. There were Delehanty and Hengler, Sheridan and Mack, Sol Smith Russell, the Berger family of bell- ringers, J..W. McAndrews, the watermelon mau, and Harry Stanwood, the banjo play- er. The opposition was fierce in those days. West and I got $50 a week aplece and lived in a boarding house on Houston street. About this time Billy Emerson said good- by and went to Austrailia. He had made a good deal of money, but had lost the most of it one way or another. Billy West and I traveled through the country, dqing fairly well until 1874. Then Billy Emer- son came back from Australia and with him I joined Jack Haverly at the Hooley Theater in Brooklyn on Nov. 20. I served four years under “Capt. Jack,” as we used to call him, and I may say that I was greatly benefited by the school- ing in more ways than one. Haverly came to town we used to simply suspend business and go with him. Noth- ing was too good for ws. He was a prince in his way. Whenever Poor old Jack! In that fam- ous company were Barlow and Wilson, E. M. Hall, and the California Quartet, led by Tom Dixon, who sang “Sally in Our Alley.” Afterward Barlow and Wilson formed a partnership with West ané my- self in 1877 and we opened at Wilmington, Del., on Aug. 20. In that audience were Colcross and Dixey, Frank Moran, Bdéy Fox, Billy Sweatnam and Matt Wheeler. When this firm died I went with Haverly again, but this time as a partner. I was with him when I met Billy Rice for the first time in 18%. He was with us five years. Billy was known as @ burnt-cork low comedian and a burlesquer of Shake- pearean roles. In a burlesque of the “Mas- cot’ which we gave Chauncey Olcott was ‘singing Pippo. Rice started out several enterprises on his own account, but they always went wrong. Since 1877 I have never received a salary, but have always conducted my own bual-" ness enterprises. Five years ago poor old — Billy Emerson came to me and asked to get in on the game. We had a long mMmter view and he promised to keep etraight. Well, I took him on and he did not a drop for five months. I could always dle Emerson when nobody else anything with him. I could do it around with him and mingling people and treating them sqaurely, In 1889 I formed a partnership with West which lasted until the early part « 1898.

The tragic failure of this young Chicago singer was clearly due to nothing but the attempt of a famous French teacher to graft his incorrect method of singing upon her artistic American style. An American success is the great object for which all American singers strenuously struggle, and when the American teacher receives the rec- ognition that is clearly his due, we shall hear no more of the lack of “art feeling”’ in this country. Not one, but many Ameri- can singers of the first rank attest to the fact that the real basis of their lyric suc- cess is in the early lessons received under conscientious teachers in this country. The only reason which formerly existed for be- ginning one’s career abroad was that there was no high-class organization in America which sung in the English language the lyric masterpieces which constitute the repertoire of operatic organizations abroad. That reason no longer exists. By ETHEL}HOUSTON DU FRE T are many reasons why I firmly belleve that American singers shoull go abroad to perfect their art for an- operatic career. In the first place the young women who studies among her friends and quaintances in America, is apt to have dis- quieting and distracting social duties which take her mind from her professional studies and occupy hours which should be given to vocal practice. On the other hand the student who goes abroad for teaching has no socia) ties to occupy the mind. The student of paint ng or sculpture in Paris lives constantly in an atmosphere of the art which perpetuates itself in marble or on canvas, and the stu- dent of singing finds himself environed by an-‘atmosphere that Inspires thoughts of operat art and nothing else. Broadly I should say, therefore, that one fs able to concentraio the mind more strong!y on study in Paris than at home, say in St Loults or Boston or New York. This, of ace cuuree, Imolics no disparagement to the | IMARTEN ADELAIDE LYORW0OoD, OPERA Co.

America’s scorn for traditions is a bar tv learning here the accepted interpretations of great roles by the great artists who have made musical history in the past. Further- Again, itn foreign eee eee more, the music makers of the present and of the future are not found in America. Puccini, Delibes, Mascagnd and the other composers of the hour are always delighted to instruct earnest students of singing in the phrases they compose. Who can over- estimate the value to Frau Materna of les- sons in the Wagrerian roles from Wagner himself; or of the benefit it must have been to Emma Eames to have been couched in the part of Ero, in Ero and Leandre, by Mancinelli, the composer? We all know that Christine Nilsson was instructed in the role of Marguerite by Gounod; that Bizet himself gave lessons to Calve In the role of Carmen, and thet Verdi! gladly co ched Etelka Gerster and Adelina Pattiin the part of Violetta in ‘“‘La Traviata.’’ The immense advantage of this personal acquantance with the author's in- tention, regarding the singing of the roles he has written, cannot be over-estimated, and, of course, could never have been ob- tained in America. As all good Moham- CASTLE SQ.

In America such former opera singers as now teach the rising generation how to sing are those whose bad and faulty method has ruined their own volces and caused them to abandon the stage for the good of cperatic art. I should say to the ambitious young American girl, avoid the former op- era singer who teaches singing in America as you would pestilence. Of course, I do not deny that now and then there is born a singer with a voice which is bound to make itself heard, no matter where it Is taughi.

The following notes of the latest conclave are furnished to the Sunday Post-Dispatch by one who had access to the facts: The relatives of the deceased Pontiff (Pius IX), who had received no notice of his death, arrived at the Vatican at 8 o’clock in the evening of Feb. 8. Meanwhile the cardinals were taking the oaths as to the secrecy of the conclave. Strange to say, no book of the Gospels had been sauna and the oaths were sworn on a crucifix passed from hand to hand. When Cardinal Bartolini shouted, ‘‘He at- trapez do.c le gros Christ," a missal was substituted for the more enmbrous crucifix. The cardinal chamberlain, Gloacchino Pec- cl (afterward Pope Leo XIII) mantfested his implacable attitude to United Italy by proposing at the outset to hold the con- clave in a foreign land. His proposal was negatived. The relatives of Pius IX, waiting at the door, were confronted , by orders from Card]. nal Chambvertain Peeci refusing admission.

Sycamores and maples should be allowed at least 32 feet when full grown. It is gener- ally found advantageous to plant them at half that distance at first, so as to give immediate results. As the trees grow the intermediate ones can be cut out. Much of the ultimate success in making trees grow depends upon the way in which the tree is planted. The preparation of the soil comes first in importance. If the #oill (and subsoil) consists of good loam, it is only necessary to dig a hole large enough so that the roots of the tree can be spread out in their natural position. As a rule there is but little good soil in the city streets. When this iS the case, a large hole shottd firet be dug; if it reaches into hard clay, a drain should be laid from its bottom to some lower drain or opening. Where g00d gravel is obtainabls it may be well to put in a foot or more of gravel, which will facili- tate drainage. On this, good loam or ashphalt pavement it is often desirable to fill in this loam out into the street and under the sidewalk. An important feature in street planting is drainage. There are several ways in which this may be obtained. An excellent method is to place a vitrified T sewer pipe so that the two openings end in the gravel, and the other end just above the ground. This open end is covered with a perfor- ated tile, which can be removed so that water can be poured in from time to time. Another method is as follows: A four- inch vitrified sewer pipe with cemented joints should be laid five or six feet deep direcdy under the line where the row of trees is to be planted. There shonld be a tle every eight feet from which a drain tile is laid to the surfac of the ground. Some of these lines of tile should be vertical, others slant toward the walk, and others toward the gutter, with the tops of all covered with a grate. ‘The cemented pipe — | TREE —-HOVULD LOOK. f/ PLANTED TREE HOULD NOT Loo te _— - How I ACUT TING RESULIS [™B SO, yer os a “ ~ : + ER > att ee ok ap pet PLN He TMIDT cg eenre a, , adi - . — STS EERE TT FT EE rt Pe. x Pats Sake.

LOUIS SPoseecoeeseseosoeosssosoeos _ NeverBefore Has the U. S. Patent Office Received so Many Applications for Protection to Devices That Are Supposed to Fly. HERE is a great boom in aero- statics in the United States. They are simply flying high. Never be- fore did so many Americans turn their minds to the invention of airships and flying machines, and the announcement of the aerostatic contest at the Louisiana Purchase Fair in St. Louis has brought upon the United States patent office a deluge of devices. Two hundred and one applications for patents have been made by American inventors of flying machifes. The first of these was made in 1844, and 50 of them have been made within the last six years indicating the activity the science of man- flying is enjoying just now. | The big prizes offered for excellence in ir navigation by the St. Louis Fair Co. sent every Darius Green to his work- shop and cverv Icarus to his wings of wax. New native genius is cropping out. Startling devices are being propos- ed. There is scarcely a state without its inventor suring his wits to winning this prize, and the prospect is that myriad ereatures most fearfully and wonderfully mate will fairly swarm St. Louis in the year of the Fair. WASHINGTON, March 14. Bpecial Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. HE $200,000 to be distributed in prizes among the navigators of air at St. Louls has proven the leaven in tho areostatic dough. Everything i!s looking up. Modest geniuses who had not before confided their schemes to the United States patent office are now making bold to make a clean breast of their hopes, and such a fiéet of weiltd and winged creatures as is being patented now was not even equaled when the pterodacty] paraded the heavens or the vampiree now vanished flew. Not to be outdone by the novices, the veterans of the balloon and sailing board are alert and at work, and, if it is true, a& the American boasts, that this is the miost inventive of peoples, then Santos-Du- mont might just as well stay at home. he and the lesser lights of his ilk behind him. The latest, granted to a Washingtonian, ie for “a combined balloon and aeroplane, #0 constructed that it can be readily ccn- vérted from a balloon into an aeroplane or vide versa.” It is propelled by “screws of Gonhsiderable length, having continuous sp!l- ral webs or blades.”’ An airship propelled by the explosion of cartridges at the stern was the inspiration Which gave a patent to an Oakland, Cal., Benius the other week. “The gases resulting from the explosion of the cart- ridge tn escaping through the orifice exert their full force in propelling the ship for- ward,”’ explains the inventor. The third most. recent patent tn aerostat- feos goes to another Californian. “A suitable bedy or house,’ says he, “is constructed, the upper portion of which forms a gas- containing chamber.’ An Albuquerque man cores next with a balloon in the shape of a huge ring in whose center is fixed a powerful and enormous propeller wheel, re- volving in a horizontal plane and thus gcrewing the entire device toward the ze- nith. Below puff powerful engines about which hover the terrified crew. A giant bumblebee, or an airship which looks exactly like one, was lately paterted by a genius of the Quaker City. Although the outlines of the vehicle are so like the insect named, the inventor specifies that “its principle of locomotion shall resemble that of a bird—that is, it shall have the lightness and strength, with the wings or propelling devices located at the most de- erative. A statute now demands that all patented inventions be “useful.” Airship inventors the world over are whetting their wits for the world’s first aerostatic congress, to be held in St. Louis in connection with the Louisiana Purchase Exposition.

A Frenchman some time ago obtaincd from the government a patent for a sys- tem of propelling aerodromes by means of birds harnessed to a horizontal wheel to be turned by a pilot, according to the de- sired direction of flight. Then there have been several Darius Greens given the sole right to manufacture and sell within the limits of the United States attachable wings wherewith to dart through space. An inventor who for several years remained a familiar habitue of the patent office re- ceived sole rights for an elongated, pencll- shaped airship of aluminum, which, if poised upon end, would have had the di- mensions of the Washington monument. Claims were granted this man for interior cabins as capacious as those of ocean steamships and steam engines of ponderous weight. Count Zeppelin has received letters pat- ent protecting in this country not only his far-famed airship, but a whole train of cigar-shaped balloons coupled, vesti- buled and drawn by an aerial locomotive. But .Mr. Langley, to whom the fruits of commercialism have never appealed, has applied for no patents. Santos-Dumonts aetrostat is not patented in this country, neither are the experimental airships of Maxim. ¢ Today patents are not granted for al;- ships not provided in the specifications with balloon attachments.

This snug fortune and the additional purse of $50,000 in prizes to be offered to aerostat racers of various classes are sufficient bait to attract flying- machine geniuses and filying-machine cranks from all enlightened corners of the earth. And this lucre will be but a small fraction of the spoils of victory. The laurels of international fame are guaranteed. Sir Hiram Maxim agrees to expend $1,- 000 in preparation for the contest—to put this extravagant sum on a brandnew air- ship. Whether the new aerodrome which Mr. Langley is constructing for the army will have been completed in time for the St. Louis contest is a matter of doubr. While Europeans have made the most noi- able strides as masters of aerostats of the dirigible balloon type, Mr. Lafhgley has unquestionably won the laurels of the cor- test in the broad field of aerodynamics. His aerodrome, weighing more than the air which it displaces, ts sustained and propelled exclusively by forces which its engine produces.

[) Such is Tommy Stringer, aged 15, whose inventive genius its attract- ing widespread attention to the Kindergar- ten for the Blind in Jamaica Plains, Mass., where he is being educated. Tommy Stringer is the happiest and brightest boy I have ever met. Greater than the marvels in mechanical device, Which, in spite of sightless eyes and s!- lent lips, he has invented, is the marvel in character which he has built up in the =~ val trifold afflictions. 4 my has never seen the sunshine, but hé Khows what it feels like, because he has Interior sun-making machine of his own. ite has never heard the songs of birds or music of a human voice, but he knows what music is, because his life is a song Of giadness for such biesings as he has.

At this time he was taken to the Perkins Institute of FBoston and placed in the kindergarten branch to Jamaica Plain. Tommy was at first the most hopeless case this institution ever undertook. He was just a mass of nét too healthy flesh and blood formed in the shape of a child, with iretipcts and characteristics resembling those of a pup)'y. The first step towards restoration were a series of simple exercises to improve his physical condition and strengthen the flabby unused muscles. When this was accomp- lished he was able to stand and taught to walk, to feed and undress himself and play in the open air. Then began the difficutt process of es- tablishing a communication between Tom- my and the outer world. The child's intcnse apathy and dogged resistance thwarted the most patient efforts for eight months. Then the firet ray of light penetrated the thick walle, and Tommy's ealvation began. He had known what bread was, but knew no name for it. Each time that bread was given to him the eign world for it was spelled upen his hand. Then the bread was taker away, in the hope that Tommy would plead for it with the sign. But he could not or would not do it. Hundreds of hours of toll were spent upon this object, until Tommy's case looked hopeless indeed. Then came a day when tie sting of hunger filled the blind eyes with tears and the dumb lips trembled. The baby hand reached out for the teacher's paim and made the sign for bread. Since then the education of Tommy has been rapid. Physically, mentally, morally he has grown, wai the puny creature with the has pa B nya c bi) keen sense of humor, a great capacity for human love and sympathy, and a genius for mechanical invention which holds » of fame and fortune. ») Tommy evinced as 7 - os « ewe = nett, a, = i ¢, tee \ — , | clue SN ll = ap , \> ‘ ’ ,? , 4 >} : ' 4) » ‘\ Bhan , * i) | for the teys that amuse ordinary boys.

And when such toys came his way Tommy im- mediately prdceeded to take them to pilec- es, discover the secrets of thelr working and replace every part where it belonged. Some time ago a clock which had served his time and was no longer considered mendable was given to Tommy as an or- nament for his room. Tommy probably dismembered the timepiece, strengthened the weak parts, substituted a new spring, and in two weeks the clock was merrily ticking on his bureau, which delighted Tom because it kept him company at night. It is then that Tom does his thinking and planning and solves the problem of how to make things ‘“‘go.”’ strong in him and “to create’’ the goal toward which everything worth while gravitates. When every one else in the institute its asleep Tommy lies awake planning means for correcting every household evil. When the wind blew in, despite locked windows, he made strips of wood, which he himeeif sawed and beveled, to cover the cracks around the windows. Yet Tom- my did not know that weather strips ex- isteod. When the windows wedges to keep them steady. As there were a great many windows to be fitted, however, requiring many sizes of wedge and much waste time in the fitting thereof, Tom thought the problem out one night and hit upon the scheme of making a wedge of universal size, thick at the top and tapering almost to a point, which could be pushed down to accommodate an open- ing of any sige. After the windows were attended to the doors gave Tom considerable annoyance. Those intended to remain open Anvariably slammed, and those which should have re- mained closed were always open.

The first arrangement was found particu- lariy useful in the barn stall where he * keeps his bicycle, the door of which had an unpleasant habit of slamming just as Tommy and his wheel were getting through. Before he dreamed of owning a real bi- cycle, which was a present from an in- terested friend, Tom had made for himeelf, during one of his summer vacations, which are spent on the farm of a kindly old min- ister at Wrentham, Mass., a crude substi- Construction is gt for a wheel, which gave him plenty of represents %°ope for probiem solving. Two good-sized wheels were secured from a toy wagon, and it was easy enuvugh, for Tom, who excels in sloyd work, to con- struct a brace and seat. But the solving of a practical pedal ar- rangement which would make the wheels go round took nearly the whole summer. It was finally effected, however, and if the machine looked crude it could “go,’’ and to the blind boy's mind that was its whole purpose. He knows nothing of beauty. He has never seen color, and the only impression symmetry conveys to his mind is that of weight, power and relative values, these all mean much to Tom, for he interprets them through his sense of touch, which is de- veloped prehensibie to to a degree incompr e people whose power is divided | among all the senses.

Competent instructors direct nothing. F ALL the children of St. Louis were graduated from the manual training de- partment of the St. Louls Provident As- sociation, cooking would be better, buttons would stay on longer, and every housewife could sit down and make her own clothes hamper. For the young people who take the course in manual training out at the Washington avenue house of good works can cook and sew and weave baskets. Every Saturday afternoon they are busy from 2 until 4 o'clock acquiring these useful arts. They have a modern kitchen fully equipped; a seWing room with every necessary appoint- ment, and in this same room a long table around which the baskets are woven. It is quite wonderful to look in upon these busy little workers, who are not working for wages or for anybody's immediate profit, but are fitting themselves for the necessities of their more responsible years. On one side of the large sewing room, seated around long tables, are 30 little girls ranging from 8 to 14 years of age. Wach littlé seamstress has her own workbox. Each is quietly intent upon her work. Thirty bright needles fiash in and out as they baste, run seams, backstitch, cast over and make the weaving stitch. On the other side of the sewing room are 30 little chil- dren, boys and girls, seated around long tables, learning basket weaving. In the kitchen are 19 little girls and one little boy learning how to cook gocd, whole- some food. The children of this class are older than those of the basket weaving and sewing classes. No child under 12 years of age is taken into the cooking class. On the wall of the kitchen are special rules for dishwashing. After the little cooks have baked bicuits, a pile or cake or boiled & potato, they must wash the dishes. One Washes and the other dries. By MRS. EDWARD T AUSSIG. OR some time we felt the need of a F manual training department in the Provident Association. It was not that we hoped to teach the children some- thing by which they could earn a livelihood, but to take them off the streets, to teach the idea and the results of work. and to make them dexterous for future work. A great many people have no idea of work or the results of it. We have people apply to us for aid. Believing that the best way to help anyone is to help them to help themselves, we offer them work. They lool: at us in astonishment, and say, “I never have done anything in my life. Do you ex- pect me to work now” By teaching work, its value and its re- sults, tre hope to do away with the idea that it is an easy matter to beg a living. Every boy and girl, if properly trained, takes pleasure in creating. They take a great deal more pleasure in a simple thing they have made than they do in a costly manufactured article. Why? Because the Sense of ownership is stronger. They made it. It is theirs. It is a part of them. We instruct them how a thing should be done. They give us the expression of doing, of making. We reach a class of children that no other organization can reach. We are very fortunate in being able to secure com- petent instructors. We also have a num- ber of volunteers who give their services for the instructions they receive. The as- sociation furnishes everything. All we ask is that the pupils apply themselves and make good use of the opportunity given them. We investigate each case and see that the parents are unable to send the ohildren elsewhere. Many of them are mem- bers of deserving families that the asso- clation looks after. The classes meet on the third floor of the @ssociation building, Sixteenth and Wash- ington avehue, Saturday afternoon from 2 to 4 o'clock. The cooking class, or do- mestic science department, is in charge of Miss Carrie Eisenhardt, one of the do- mestic science and sewing teachers of the =: Louls public schools. This class is ‘or this training, not grow in the way they this and it costs the children work, composed of 19 girls, ranging from 12 to 16 years of age, and one little boy. The mem- bers of this ciass, as the membership is limited, are chosen by the association from those worthy of the training. This depart- ment is quite expensive.

The room used for this purpose is fitted up like all modern cooking clings rooms. Each child has an individual gas stove and a portion of a long table, a drawer which contains a spoon, a fork, a knife, a measur- ing cup. a rolling pin, a liscuit cutter, a small pie tin. three small sauce pans, a frying pan and a small loaf-cake or bread pan. Jelow the drawer is a large space used for the dishpan and soap dish and a rack on which to hang the dishtowel and dishcloth. F'ech little cook must come to the class- room neat and clean. Their hands and faces must be clean, and their hair neatly brushed. They must have clean aprons. They are provided with tablets and peneijs with which to take down notes. They are taught to prepare good, wholesome and economical food, palatable and inviting in appearance. Scientific methods as to the effects of hot and cold water upon meats and vegetable. are thoroughly taught. They are made as simple as possible so the children may un- derstand. ‘They are shown the reason for doing things as they should be done by practical experience and not by hearsay. after the food has been prepared, sampled and pronounced a success or failure, the dishes and tables are cleaned properly and put away. Sometimes the children eat the food they have cooked, but mostly they take it home to show their parents. The sewing clase is under the manage- ment of Miss R. H. Bruckman, a graduate of the New York Teachers’ College. The class ts composed of 30 little girls from 8 to 14 years of age. The first work of this class is the weaving stitch. This {s taught by placing a number of perpendicular threads of zephyr on a card and running horizontal threads through it by passing over one and under one. By thie they are shown the relation of weaving to cloth. The next step is to learn the different stitches and their uses. This is done on small strips of unbleached muslin, two and a half inches wide and varying in length from 3 to 9 inches. First the baisting stitch is taught, then the run, next the overcast or patch- work. and last the back stitch. When the children can make the stitches nicely they are given some article to tnake. In this way they apply what they have been taught to practical use. When they have learned to make a few simple garments, they are given a doll to dress. They cut out the clothing and dress the doll without the aid of the teachers. When the doll is dressed it is theirs and they may take it home. They are taught every branch of plain hand sewing, from baisting to making button holes. As soon as they have learned to make the stitches neatly, they are given something useful to make. This teaches them the results of work. The basket weaving is also under Miss Bruckman's management. This class is composed of boys and girls, 30 in number, ranging from 6 to 14 years of age. In this department the best material that can be purchased is used. It is generally raffea and fine reeds. Raffea is a fiber or inner stripping of a palm growing in Mexico. It is used for making mats, baskets, ham- mocks, hats and various other things. The first step with the reeds is that of a fiat mat making, weaving over one and under one. Next comes the round scoop and third the round basket or hamper. The fiat mat first made is now used for the cov- er of the hamper. The hamper is followed, by an oval basket, with or without a cover. When a child has mastered the reeds, raffea work is given. This may be ae ?.

From this 1s made baskets of innumerable styles, nap- kin rings, hats and other artistic and use- ful articles.

Doesn't all cream ”?’'—— Ila Du Barry guregled as I looked uncon- cernediy out. of the window of the best suite at the Fifth Avenue, turning my head back just in time to catch the sight of a Louis XIV slipper tossing out the train of a Louls XV housegown, till the yellow crepe folds fell in shimmering masses and melted with the'tones of her hair. " “You actor people,” I said, with appre- plation, “know just exactly how.” “T am not,”’ said Du’ Barry, with all the fignity of the Tullleries, “actor people— now. I let you come to my holy-of-holies #0 see what Du Barry is like when she isn't Du Barry. Mrs. Leslie Carter’’—with the point that captivated his Majesty the King “at your service!” ~° “Some more tea, then,’ I said, promptly. “and before you show.me what Du Barry Is when she isn’t let me tell you what she is when she acts. “I¢ you'll aay something nice’’ — poising the tongs in midair with the acme of ar- tigstic effect, “‘I'll give you four lumps.” “Indeed, you will not,’’ I replied, with the virtuous. alr we assume when refusing bribes we can't use; “it isn't my way, any- way. It belongs to the man behind. He gat speBbound through last night's per- formance. He cried with you, laughed with ou, rose and fell with you. He was de- tel when you fooled the king, despaired when you lost Cosse and blew his nose when the mobs mocked you in the streets of Paris. “When they tock you off to be guillo- tinea I expected he'd rush around to the stage door to catch your head, but he didn’t. Instead ne walked leisurely out to the lobby with some other men and said: **Yes?’’ “T think I won't tell Sweetiy humble now’’—— “Oh, go ahead,” impatiently; ‘tell me— you must—please do.”’ It was the combination coax and com- mand which is Du Barry's prettiest trick— the one that wins the Duc de Brissac in the third act. I tried to analyze it and couldn't. “Well,” I replied, for I couldn't hold out against a combination to which a captain of the King’s Guard succumbed, ‘‘he said you were good and the play was good and the cast was good, and the situations were e “Oh, Everything was just good! He must have been a‘Frenchman.”’ “He didn't state, but I think he wasn't. For he said you were better than Bern- hardt, which a FPrenchman wouldn't. And better than Duse, and Terry, and any other actress that acts—yourself, even, for you'd broken your own record and stood on the pinnacie of success. And others say it, too. All over town I've heard’’— you. You're 6o “Oh, my dear.”’ Leslie Carter’s head fell in.-her hands and a warm flush spread up to her hair. For moments she forgot to act. For moments all the womanliness within her—which is strong—made her happy and unaffected— woman whom the public does not ‘see, and to whom “Zaza” and “Du Barry” are un- discovered territory. “Of course, it isn't news,"’ I said present- ly; “you knew all that before we did. The advance sales tell their story, and the wel- come on the opening night, the curtain calls, the crowded aisles, the unfailing ‘nohting for this week’ at the box office— and above all the consciousness that you sway the audience and they follow all your moods. These things keep you pretty well posted about the rung of the ladder you rest on, don’t they?’ Mrs. Carter shook her head. “Tl hadn't applied them before,’ she said, thoughtfully, ‘“‘not that way. Perhaps I’vc been too busy. I’ve never devoted so much time as this to thought of ft before. Or perhaps I'd grown so used to regarding it all as struggling and working thatit had becomo a habit. I used to wonder how I'd feel if I had repeated curtain calls.” “And having had them?” “T feel just the same; just as I used to feel about it: just as Oliver Twist felt about It. I want some more. It’s never the thing I’ve done that exalts me. It’s the thing I want to do. “The present condition of things looked like a golden impossible paradise in the old days, yet today I'm as far from my ideals as ever—the heights of my ambition are just as far above re.” Mrs. Carter rested her chin fn her hands and the corners of her mouth drooped dis- consolately. “Tt’'s because the goal advances,”’ I sug- gested; “Uncle Jasper says even ‘the sun do move!’ ” “lJncle Jasper is an astronomer and a philosopher. It moves so fast we can't catch up. And yet’’—with a characteristic bob of her head that threw her bright braids in the sunlight—‘‘things are changed, if I'm not. “There isn’t the struggle there used to be, and the work doesn't seem so hard. Don't smile. I have worked terribly hard. It may seem to you now that it came easy; but it didn't. “If I lived forever, I should never forget the Deginning—such a long, rough, discour- aging beginning as it was. When I first took hold my energies were impaired by worries of every sort. “That retarded my progress. But Mr. Be- lasco was patient. He is patient with eve- ery one who is struggling; kind to every one who is down. Despite repeated failures, his interest in me did not flag, for I had one quality that appealed to him. It was my willingness to work. I didn’t want to stop a moment. If I stop working I think— and I hate to think.”’ Leslie Carter drew her brows together ull they made a horrid little frown. She was thinking. “Belasco was so patient,’’ she repeaced, smiling a little, “‘and so confident. He would talk to me about finesse and repose, and making points and getting effects. It was all Greek. The more-he explained the less a ee Sale Tig Beale any ye I understood. But I tried to look knowing and said yes. I was so ashamed of my stupidity and so sorry for his wasted ef- forts. “Then would come a day when Belasco would cry, ‘Great heavens, that’s it, you've got it'—and light would break in. Now I know what all these things méan, but I couldn’t explain them to you. “That's why this profession is so hard. There are things that cannot be taught or told or passed on. You must fall in them and succeed in them, before you master them. Ore cannot blossom out upon the stage, no matter how great the genius, and become at once a finished actor. It re- quires time and experience to attain finesse. “What is finesse?:It sounds good, but vague."’ “it's 88 Vague as it sounds. It's a will-o'- the-wisp.”’ “Wat's it nearest like, of a'l the things you can teuch?’’ Leslie Carter gurgled. No other word de- scribes her lavgh, which is soft and rip- pling ani intectious. “Well,”’ satd she, meditatively, “for one thing, it's this, the power to feel artificial things naturalivy and having reaily felt them to be uwatural to convinve others that they are. sounds involved, but takes your time.’’ Mrs, Carter looked sweetly over the tea- cups while I pondered and conquered. “Not a bad try,” I retaliated, “but none too cucid. Its logic wasn’t unimpeachable, either. I've heard actors say that the most successful’ way to make others feel is not to feel it oneself, but to act it.”’ “A theory,’’ said, Leslie Carter, firmly, “which they never applied to or deducted from successful acting. Do you know Zaza was.more successful than my other at- tempts, Because I was learning to feel. Not that I didn’t know how—I had in real life run the gamut of human feeling. But I was learning to forget myself and feel; to feel the sorrows and the joys of others. “Selfishness and conceit are barriers to reatness. Genlus can never find sufficient scope in the limited experience and char- acter of one human being. He who would succeed in any profession—and particularly in this one—must sink his own identity, must forget his own pleasures and pains, and let his sympathies go out and find the miseries 1nd motives of others. “It does not matter if thase others be live people around us or the heroes or heroines of history and fiction. If the comedies and tragediss of their lives can draw upon our laughter and our tears, till we forget our own lives and live with them in theirs, then have we made the right‘ foundation of his- trionic success. And when we reach that point where we can feel those feelings and portray those lives, so that they, who look and listen, lose-their sympathies for the time, then have we built a work of art in- deed upon that right foundation.”’ Leslie Carter rose and paced the floor. She was full of earnestness and sincerity, which constitute her best charm—and she wasn't acting. e : “That's the sort I want to build,” she said, stopping abruptly, ‘‘one that will not only shelter me well while I am here, but remain as a2 monument to my efforts after lam gone, “It isn’t to satisfy my vanity, nor is it to swell my bank account, that I am work- ing, working unceasingly. These motives would not be strong enough to demand every waking hour and every grain of force and energy in my life. It is the desiré to do for the mke of the th'ng done—to ac- complish for the sake of accomplishment— and to accomplish it to the very best there is in me.’’ “Do you think art do this? alone can HAGERSTOWN, IND.

Because I went down into the depths with her and suf- fered, and up to the heights with her and rejoiced.”’ “And Du Barry?” . “I have been Du Barry for a year. I have worn the sort of clothes she wore— not for effect, but because I've studied her and pitied her, admired her and imitated her for so long that I actually find myself having the same tastes in all the little de- talls that make up a woman's life. “IT have lost myself in the part of Du Parry. From the time I go on in the mil- liner sheop—how d'you like that milliner shop?” “Almost as much as Du Barry did.” “Good. Aren't the hats pretty?’’ “How about you, isn't it pretty hard woo- ing sleep after the nervous strain of Du Barry ?’’ Mrs. Carter threw out her arms, threw back her head and invited me to look at her. “Tell me, do I look like a nervous wreck?’’ She was the embodiment of health and vitality. “Somewhere I read that ‘Mrs. Leslie Car- ter js a complete wreck after each perform- ance of Du Barry.’ Do you want to know the truth? Mrs. Leslie Carter fs ready to begin all over again, at the close of each performance. Indeed, she would like con- tinuous performances of Du Barry, and never be Leslie Carter, which means a woman who rests—except when she's Zaza. Now, which do you like the best?’’ “Du Barry. The play's greater.” “But the women—their characters?” “Why. I didn't know they had any.”’ Mrs. Carter sat bolt upright and defended her heroines. “I wonder,’ she said, impatiently, ‘“‘why people always look over their heads for morals, instead of under their feet, where they are. I wonder why they see goodness along only one line and refuse to call it goodness if it follows any other. Du Barry was an unfortunate, but she was good. Her parents were of the sort that form the dregs of Paris—what could be expected of her? “Yet she rose to be more than Queen of France, and, with all her low-born heritage, she blushed to be the courtesan of a king, as women with blue blood had failed to do before her. Do repentance and charity and atonement and good works count for nothing? “Du Barry was not bad. Carlyle black- ened her, but what woman escaped _ the scourge of his whip? “Guy de Maupassant gives us the true Du Barry and her memoirs speak for them- selves. She was a woman of: the people, and common blood was in her veins, but she was a woman. She shows it in the second act when she repeats what are to my mind the best lines in the play, ‘I'm always sorry for the things I do, but I’m always sorry too late.’ ’”’ There was the little choke in her voice, just as there had been in Du Barry’s the night before. But art and nature are close- ly blended in Mrs. Carter, and I couldn't tell whether the actress were speaking or whether the woman had dominated the act- ress the night before. “Again she is a woman,” said Mrs. Carter slowly, ““when she goes to the guillotine. When Marie Antoinette faced the same hor- ror she begged the executioner’s pardon for stumbling over his toe, and smiled de- flance at the world. When Du Barry got there she confessed she was afraid. ‘The slender white throat was to be sev- ered from her body, and any woman who had a woman's sensitiveness would have ‘| been horror-stricken. “I only play*the part, but you don’t know what that guillotine means to me. I can see the knife when I first come on in. the milliner’s shop in my gayest mood, ané@ it hangs like a weight over me all through the play. “But that isn’t the worst of it. Twenty- two times my own throat has been cut by the knife of the gullloine. It's a most un- happy ~vay to die. I have always waked up directly after, but it makes a very bad dream. I believe I play the part:a good deal harder in my sleep than on the atage.”’ “Then your nerves are not strung on cast fron, they really are affected by the play?” “O, I haven't said it doesn’t affect my nerves. But it docen’t make a physical wreck of me. I’ve been urging Wednesday matinees, but Mr. Belasco wouldn't have it. He doesn’t know what I can stand, but I do, and I know why. “When I'm not working I’m resting. The stage is my whole life. It’s all I have and all I want. I have no fads, no friends. There is no time to cultivate either. You have no idea how isolated from everything my life ‘s. Why. I don’t even know the current fashion. I dress so much at the theater I'm glad to cling to these negligees when I'm home. “For my part I hope there won't be a moment's interim between acting and dy- ing. That eomething within me which pushes me on and makes me act would burn me up if I should stop.”’ Mrs. Carter leaned against a mantel, and the folds of the yellow gown leaned with her. It may have been art or it may have been nature, but either way it sounded well, and withou: the limelight and with- out the makeup she was winsome enough to tempt a King of France. rrr ee ee fi - a = . one Ye y ; FSS (|!

Van Sant of Minnesota, whose pictures were printed in the Sunday Post-Dispatch three months ago upon the occasion of their seventieth wedding anniversary. HAGERSTOWN, Ind., March 14. Bpecial Correspcndence of the Sunday Pcst-Dispatch. R. AND MRS. ELISHA BROWN, M whose home is at the edge of this village, are undoubtedly the oldest married couple now living In Indiana. They were married in this township Feb. 20, 183y, and have just celcbrated the 724 anniver- sary of their wedding day. Mr. and Mrs. Brown remain in fairly good health, and apparently justify the hope of their friends that they wil! live to celebrato their dia- mond wedding in 1995. . Flisha Brown was born near Cynthiana. Ky. Dec. 35, 108. His parents removed to Jefferson Township, Wayne County, Indl- ana, in 1°16, the year that Indiana was ad- mitted as a state into the Union. and that township has been his home ever since. “Sacto 4 Mrs. Brown, who was Miss Margaret Lurns, was born near Waynesville, O, July lj, 1811. Her parents also came to Indiana in 1816 and. settled near the cabin of the Browns in the eastern part of this town- ship. These two children were the only white babies known in a wide stretch of country, and they attracted atfenticn when- thev appeared at pioneer festivities. From the first occasion of their mseting they manifested the greatest preference for each other's society. In those days there was but little society in the back- woods, and the number of young people w very small. Apperentiy there was nothing to interrupt the association of young Elisha Frown and Miss Burns, and their subse- quent wedding in 18% was accepted aa t natural sequence of the circumstances un- der which they had passed their livee in the wilderness, ever Mr. and Mrs. Brown started housekeeping in a most primitive log hut. There was no windo 7 to the single room, and the one door had wooden hinges and a wooden latch, which was lifted with a thong cut from a deerskin. The chimney was stick and clay, and Mrs. Brown says there were but few days when it didn't smoke more at the bot- tom than at the top. There were no cook- ing ctoves in those days, and all the cook- ing was done over the fire in the open fire- piace. At first there was not even a crane in the chimney upon which pots were to be suspended on chains, but later that innova- tion was added. The roof of the cabin was of clapboards, and they were held in pos!i- tion by weight poles. The floor was clay hammered smooth and hard and kept clean by sweeping with hickory-withe brooms. There were a few chairs, a ro table, some treasured blue china yet In the fami- ly, a bed formed of poles secured to the side cf the cabin, some pewter ware, health, energy and happiness, and those wete the things with which Mr. and Mrs. started to housekeeping. Accord.ng we) te testimony those were among the h 4 days. | vs It ts almost past bellef that within the span of theie married ‘life almost every one of the modern improvements and inven- tlons have been introduced and perfected. BEEN MARRIED 72 YEARS were no roads through the green woods, and the government had its mail carried on norseback through the backwoods set- tlements. It cost D cents to send a letter, and newspapers were not received in that way in this far western country. There were no railroads anywhere near this part of Indiana. Absolutely all the supplies were carried on horseback. The nearest grist mill was #@ miles away, and the grain was carried on a horse’s back. The journey there and back usually took a week. Indians came occa- sionally. but they were friendly. They were only the ones who longed to see their old home once mere, and endured @ jour- ney on foot through the wilderness that they might revisit the scene of their early life. Probably no two persons have ever lived who were more closely arsoctated together through all their lives than Mr. and Mra. Brown. From the time of their first meet- . ing as children it is sald that they bave neve er been absent from each other as much as a week at a time. Their devotion to one another in their old age is beautiful to see, and tt ts the wieh of all who know them that when the final summons come both will hear the call and obey together. } Eleven children were born to Mr, an@ 8 Mrs. Lrown, six of whom are

It T WAS a fiction character who sung | in “Treasure Island’’ that grewsome etrain: Sixteen men on a dead man's chest, Ho, bo. ho, and a bottle o’ rum. But it is A. M. Strong, a character in real life, who comes back to St. Louis, after 18 months away in the South seas, singing himself for eeca ditty: Forty-two nights on a bale of hay, Ho, ho, ho, for a jolly bum. A. M. Strong has been abroad again. This time he has traveled a little matter of 25,- 000 miles on a $8 start, and has incidentally served a while with the British army in South Africa, but he is all right. Tourist Strong is not the sort of person that grts shot by Boers, run over by trains, sucked down by sinking ships or put out by fever. He thas been on a hospital corps, but never on a hospital cot. On his last ng abroad Tourist Strong took passage oh the British steamer Mon- arch out of New Orleans for Durban, Natal. On the same ship there happened to be 1000 horses going to the British army in the Transvaal. Almost any other tourist would have complained about this state of affairs, but not so Mr. Strong. There was no state- room for him, and he was compelled to re- main below with the horses. Ordinary sea voyagers would have found this maddening, but it mattered nothing to Strong. He had horse sense. He got him a bale of hay and made his bunk upon it by night, and during the day he drew 35 cents for the humane work of seeing that the horses immediately around 4@id not die of starvation or thirst or kick each other into the sea. The food was very c.arse and peor, but Strong as- serted his ordinary uncomplaint. What the food was mattered nothing in a place where a voyager could look outdoors almost any place and see such espectacular scenery as the whole sky, the heaving sea, the place where Columbus discovered America, the isie where Napoleon died, sharks’ whales, waterspouts and the Spanish main not one whit different than it was when the gallceons ef Pizarro went staggering and creaking across with their treasure of golden loot. It would be a mistake to call Strong a tramp. As well might Isaac Newton be chilled a loiterer or the good Pere Marquette a vagrant with no permanent place of abode. To be sure Strong has thumped out his many thousands of miles in a box car, and has slept with no other protection than the sable curtain of night around him, but he is not a tramp. Tramps travel a country to work it; Strong goes merely to eee it. Tramps beat their way for sheer sake of beating; Strong does it because it enables him to travel when otherwise he would remain at home perforce and deny himself that educative polish which can only e@pme of much brushing around the world. Tramps are artiess, illiterate and unobserving; Strong is artful, educated and everything. So to call Strong e tramp would be to forget that there are travelers “ae travelers.

I left St. Louis with $3 in cash and, with that for a starter, I have just com- pleted a trip of some 25,000 miles. I have wandered without any object In view be- yond a desire to see other countries. I am not atramp, but a drifter. I work for what little money I need, and I am always in- dependent. ' | worked at railroading for some years, and an acquaintance among railroad men has partially enabled me to go as | would without funds. Of course,’ there are rai)- roads and conductors who do not regard me kindly or else don't regard me at all. In such events i indulge myself in a Pull- man—one of those with the sliding doors on the side. On Nov. 2B, Hiouston, Tex., see. for days time the trav- times people 1 was. 1900, I left St. Louis where | arrived 10 later. Of course, this is not runaway between St. Louis and Houston, but train upon which I| happened be eling was broken up a good many and always gave right-of-way who were in more of a hurry than From Houston I went on to*New Orleans. During my first week there | saw in a newspaper an advertisement for men to take a cargo of horses to South Africa. The advertisement promised good treat- ment and $15 upon the arrival of the ship at its destination. White I had _ visited many foreign lands, | had never been to Africa, and | wanted to that country. llere was my opportunity. The advertisement had been placed by a Mr. Schwartz. I hunted him up to get in- formation. I found Mr. Schwartz a diplo- mat. He was not running an information bureau. He was simply hiring men. He knew nothing about life on a horse boat, and took pains to see that I knew less. His reluctance to tell anything convinced me there was somettiing about it too good to be bruited about, so I put my name on the list. Twe weeks later I went down the river to where the Monarch, Capt, Morgan, was loading horses for South Africa. She took on 1000 horses and 100 hostlers to take care of them. The next morning she dropped down the river and, before dark, the Mon- arch was on blue water. The trip across the Atlantic is not a par- ticularly pleasant memory. The food was bad. There were no beds for the men. We had to sleep wherever we could curl up, and before the trip ended some of us had learned to sleep standing up like a horse.

Mutinles were common, and it was nothing unusual to see four or five of the ringleaders handcuffed to the bridge railings while ‘“‘the old man” read to them the articles of their service contracts or ex- pounded for their edificativum the mysteries of maritime law. Long before the Monarch dropped anchor at Durban the skipper assured us in round sea oaths that none of us would be permit- ted to go ashore, but he was an Englishman unaware of the resourcefulness of a Yankee hobo. We had made the trip to see the country, not to get his horses across, and the country we would see. The first line had not more than gone out to the big dock before we were drilling ashore, the skipper sending after us a volley of oaths that would have discomfitted a less valorous army. When we reached wanted men and badly. The recruiting-of- ficers fairly jumped at They got us. We had not expected to go over ‘there and fight for John Bull, but he offered us new sights to see, and we went to Pietermaritz- burg that night. For more than a week an old gray geant of the Dublin Fusileers drilled Yankees, and then we set off for the front. At the last pinch I failed because of my eyes, which are not strong, and was sent to the hospital corps, the other boys going to Kitchener for scout duty. There were 93 of them. and they were as good fighting men as eve: wore khaki, even though they did bring over 1000 horses. When the Duke of Cornwall and made his visit to Africa, he asked Kitchener: “Who make your hot fighting men in this war’? ‘The Yankees, your grace,”’ replied the commander-in-chief. “They are more adaptable. They never seem at a loss what to do. and can be depended upon to look out for themselves. Nearly all are fine riders and good shots. They are the best of scouts and, against this enemy, kind of men we need.” On the first day of March | was with about 23 others, to No. 14 Genera! Hos- pital at Newcastie, Natal.

A good plano and a fine organ were there, and many of the of- ficers and ‘‘non-coms” had musical instru- ments of their own.

The com- missioned staff of No. 14 General Hospital was Col. O. Todd, commanding: Maj. Ecke- ersiy, surgical division; Maj. Culling, mede- ical division; Lieut. Parry, orderly medical officer, and Lieut. Nolan, quartermaster, all of the-royal army medical corps. The non-commissioned ataff comprised 16 ser- geants, two of them sergeant-majors, and 2% corporals. There were from 30 to 300 orderlies (privates) about equally divided between the R. A. M. C. (regular) and the imperial hospital corps (colonial). There was, in addition, a corps of 3% trained nurses from the best hospitals In England and Australia. They were splendid women, all of them, and, by their ability and eare- ful nursing, saved many of England’s song from a grave in far-away Africa.

During the revolutionary times of 1848 the great rush of immigrants began. Some of the most famous Germans who have carved out thelr careers in the Unth- States were among the ‘“Forty-eight- / ead ers. When the civil war commenced the flood of immigration from Germany was stopped and’ did not begin again until the new raili- roads and land-grants attracted settlers, to *the western state. Up to 186 a large number of political exiles were obliged to seek a haven in America; but «ince that time the main in- centive to immigration has been the desire to carn a better living and to earn a home. In every Germar immigrant the spirit of self-help ana independence ts very strong. Few Germans are to be found on the books of charltable societies.

The Indian in the bow, Standing upright, uses a pole to aid in pro. . pelling the canoe or in keeping it steady. OF THE LAKE Lying ready to his hand is a dip net four feet in diameter, fastened to the end of a pole, perhaps 15 feet long. The fishing is done at the foot of the rapids, where the water bolls and tumbles furiously. With his pole the Indian in the bow keeps the boat moving about in the rapidssand gazes constantly into the water, which is often 10 feet or more deep. Suddenly the Indian in the bow seize the net handle with one hand, never ceasing to manipulate the canoe with his pele in the other, nor for an instant remov- ing his staring gaze from the water. The net is not more than in his hand before he has pluhged it perhaps 10 feet distant from the boat, thrusting it at the same instant te the bottom. Then he gives it a peculiar twist, draws it up, and surrendering the care of the canoe for the moment to the Indian with the paddle, he draws the net up, never without from three to half a dozen glistening whitefish in it, frequently will PERIOK INDIANS weighing five pounds each.

EMU 4 hee, vs a. ei * of the Foremost of New York's Modistes, and Makes an Interesting Forecast of What People Will Wear. RS. AYER.—Mme. Waliman, how M many hats should a woman have for the spring and summer season in order to be suitably dressed so far as hats go on any occasion? MME. WALLMAN.—Do you refer to a fashionable woman who wil! attend many functions during the two seasons, or to just an every-day woman who wishes to “n presentable at the least necessary out- ay’ MRS, AYER.—Women readers of the Sun- “ay Post-Dispatch are of every socia! class. I should -ike you to answer this question for the several women—the conservative follower at a certain distance of Dame FPashion--the little mother who must be very careful of dollars and cents. and the buginese woman whose hats must not only be becoming and suitable, but must possess wearing qualities not genera!ly to be fourd in fashionable millinery. MME. WALLMAN.—The smart woman re quires at the least, I should say, half a dozen hats. She can conveniently employ a dozen. Many fashionable women carry 20 chapeaux with them to Newport or oth- er fashionable summer places, but of course more than half a score in such a case would be light, fluffy, delicate hate, not servic- able and never too elaborate or costly. A summer hat is really in better style if it gives the appearance of absolute fresh- ness, daintiness and simplicity. It should never be worn after it looks the leaet bit soiled or shows signs of usage. ) MRB. AYER.—Suppose @ smart woman has $100 to invest in summer millinery, would that be enough to turn her out well? MME. WALLMAN.—It would be ample. There is no limit to the money a woman can put into hats, but I do not think the best-dressed women, by any means, are those that wear the most expensive hats, although perhaps it is not very polito for me to say so. With $100 to invest I would suggest first an English walking hat for traveling and city wear with tailor gowns. It should cost no more than $10 or $12. For example, a turban of Tuscan braid with black Mer- cury wings, or a London round hat of white linen braid, trimmed perhaps with rosettes of ecrue batiste ornamented with tiny black velvet buttons as center. Buttons, you know, are a craze in millinery just now. There are innumerable walking hats to choose from. Then she should have four hats suitable for afternoon wear. The turbans, composed entirely of moss follage and tiny outtons rosebuds, are very fetching; they ccst from $15 to $25 each. The front nats are most becoming, too, and look charning with spring or summer gowns. Large flat hats of ecru or colored braids, trimmed with strawberry leaves, blossoms and ripe strawberries are lovely. Jisis made entirely of currant leaves and fruite, or grape follage and clusters of blue purple grapes, are wonderfully smart. Fruits are very fashionable—cherries, currante, ciny peaches, oranges—all the prettiest ‘friu'ts have been claimed for hat trimmings. A pretty hat would cost about $18. The hat illustrated with the two huds un- derneath would be charming for afternoon, and a simple chiffon or muslin toque, with garland of flowers, would make a pretty fourth. Now, I think at the lower prices men- tioned I have spent about $50 of the 48200.

There is no economy in buying cheap feathers. As to novelties, Tuscan hats trimmed en- tirely with Tuscan ornaments, beads and passementer, are very fashionable. The nat- ural color of the Tuscan braid is extremely becoming. The Tuscan hat is expensive, but it has a @istinction about it which cannot be secured in a cheaper straw. The undressed Leghorn also hes cachet. The palmetto braid for misses and chil- dren is a novelty. It comes in the most beautiful shades—scarlet, geranium, pink and blue. The shape is flat and large. These hais are trimmed with black velvet ribbon and fruits with the blossoms. We have very simple hats trimmed with straw- berry blossoms and fruit. The novelties in braid are the Mexican, carnation and chrysanthemum. Fruits and vegetables take the lead this year in trim- mings. The very latest cry is a split green pea pod with pearls substituted for the ,peas Crushed raisins and baked apples are used as color schemes. A baked ap- ple and a crushed raisin hRave beautiful tones which have been copied. We have one hat trimmed with pineapple cone, called the pineapple hat. MRS. AYER.—Shall you straws at all? MME. WALLMAN.—So far we have re- ceived no Panama straws, but the unfin- ished Leghorns will supersede the reign of the Panama. These will be trimmed with fruits, ferns and black velvet ribbcn. Long sprays of ferns will be very fashionable. Picture hats will be made of fancy braids, lattice work of beads, as wel! as of rows of roses, chiffon and mousseline. The Du- Barry hat will be fashionable and f&*bet- ter suited to women between thirty and thirty-five than to younger faces. It is too elaborate for extreme youth. The Dolly Varden hat is charming for very young girls. It is trimmed with bride or lover's Knot roses, which come in strings. A picture hat nged not of necessity cost a fortune. A hat of mousseline or Valen- ciennes lace edging trimmed with bride roses can be made for a few dollars and is charming on a young. fresh face. A hat of the Palmetto braid, scarlet in color, trimmed with peach blossoms and tiny peaches, is a novelty. Children’s hats are big brimmed, flat and pliable. Dress hats for misses will be very sim- ple. The mousseline hat, with dwarf roses and buds, is as pretty and appropriate as any style for little girls. Sallors and tur- a use Panama . bent down as formerly. FASHIONS ST. LO bans will give way to what is called the l.ondon round hat. These hats are light and becoming. They are made of linen Tuscan and trimmed with batiste orna- ments, with buttons and coachman’s ro- settes. MRS. AYER.—What do you consider the most distinctly novel feature of the «+u- son? MME. WALMAN.—The automobile hat It has but just appeared in Paris, and is quite the rage. It has been impossible ta get a hat for the automobile that was be. coming, would stay on and protect the eyes from the dust. The tricorne, with the mica faciliere, has solved the problem. ([t is wun- derfully becoming and practical as well. The three-cornered hat, turned up at the back, is the last cry in Paris. The Freach fashions go to extremes, which we never quite reach for a year. In contrast to the three-cornered hat we have a large hat, built down low almost to the collar; not The hair, dressed very low at the back, is covered witn a pearl or braid net, and the hat trimming is made to correspond. MRS. AYER.—In ribbons what iabrics are fashionable? MME. WALLMAN.—Dresden ribbons have been revived in Paris. The market here was flooded with them five years ago and Americans got tired of them. American milliners would not purchase them last 4ea- son. Now we find they are ail the rage again. Louisine and moftre will also be worn. MRS. AYER.—Has the fashion changed in respect to mourning millinery? MME. WALLMAN.—In mourning, En- glish soft crepe has entirely superseded che stiff, wiry French crepe. An innovation }s8 the widow's ruche, worn all around the face. It is differently disposed, and is only on one side of the toque, but the com- blem is-the same. Crepe has never been worn so generally for mourning; it is un- relieved by any other trimming. Veils are attached te rubbers, just as they were years ago. MRS. AYER.—What about the veil at- tached to the hat, a revival of the second French empire? MME. WALLMAN.—Yes, that: fashion is, also, coming back. It will scarcely be ac- cepted in America for another season. As I have said before, it takes us always a year to really accustom ourselves to any very decided innovation. LAWS OF HEALTH AND BEAUTY Soap Julep for Shampoo. EW JERSEY.—Soap Julep is made as N follows: Alcohol, 8 ounces; rose- water, 1 quart; extract of rondeletia, 2 ounces; white soap, 14 grammes; saffron water 14 ounces. Cut the soap into small shavings. Put it upon the stove with the saffron and one pint of rosewater and let it boil gently until the soap is all melted.

RED A. SM!TH and his sister, Mis; Della, of 3912 Lindell boulevard, heve designed and dressed a large dol! fur an exhibit to be held in New York City thic week. The wax figure, which was a blende, stood over three feet in height and sug gested the stylish little lady of today, ready for an elaborate afternoon or evening function, attired in a high-neck reception gown of olive green crepe meteor, costng $5 a yard, {rimmed in Venetian polnt lace and pale blue taffeta. The lace on the gow: cost $25, Mr. Smith having purchased jt in Italy on one of his recent trips. Al! ma- terials for this creation cost $100. The lace was dyed to harmonize with the soft shades of the olive and blended in a most exquisite fashion. The pattern of the lace was that of large plumes, known as “Prince of Wales feathers,’ and small bunches of roses. The bodice of the gown was of the olive green crepe meteor, with a round yoke effect of the Venetian lace, over blue taffeta. The lower portion of the bodice was of tiny hand-run tucks, curving in a graceful manner from the yoke and under arms to the girdle. The back was tucked in a similar fashiun. The right shoulder bore two tiny rosettes, of blue taffeta, which were made of 2% or 80 small pieces of silk not an inch square.

A soft collar of glistening blue liberty gauze and lace was edged at the top with blue chenille and inset with dainty tur- quoise beads. The sleeves were tucked above thé el- bow in the sunburst tucking and trimmed at the elbow in the point lace. Two large puffs of the liberty gauze form- ed the lower part of the sleeve and a soft ruffle of the gauze fell over the hand; it was finished at the wrist in the blue che- nille and turquoise beads.

CHILLICOTHE, O., March 14. Bpecial Corresponaence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. N THIS thriving little city of 14,000 In- ] habitants the street cars are in charge of lady conductors. Although the inno- vation was made three years ago, and has been carried on ever since, Chillicothe still has the distinction of being the only city In the United States where girls collect the street-car fares. The girl conductor was not the outcome of a strike. The fare collectors they dis- placed were the little glass boxes, hung up at each end of the car, bearing the invita- tion, in brass letters: ‘‘Please place your fare tn this box. Fare, 6 cents.” Some passengers heeded this invitation; some were too busy or absent-minded, while others thought that if the company wanted their fare they couki ask for it. In the meantime, the motorman, who was sup- posed to look after the fares, had troubles of his own secing that his car did not run into reckless drivers and stray babies. The directors were aware that the loss im uncollected fares was considerable, but to put on men conductors would have re- quired more than the tota) receipts to pay their salaries. Boys were turned down as an uncertain quantity. Finally, the presi- Gent of the road, who owns a large dry goods store employing numerous lady clerks, suggested that girl conductors be The Mea was new, very new, but tt was adopted. In response to an advertisement the next day the street railroad office looked ifke «a millinery etorg on the opening day. From the numerous applicants seven young wom- en were selected—al) girls of good breeding, and whose characters were as that of Gesar'e wife. And om the goo judgment She does not stand on the rear plat- exercised at this beginning is no doubt due the success of the innovation. There were rour cars on the line, each girl was given a run of four hours on and four off, with eight hours’ work a day and one day off each week, the cars, after 9 p. m., going without conductors. It was quite a novelty for awhile, but the girls stood the notoriety without losing their tempers, and now the system excites no more comment than the employment of girls in stores and factories. In fact, the girl conductor is just like the everyday | shop girl that Is seen in every town. They sit in the cars with the passengers and, when passing the business center, stand up in the car. Sometimes, when a new conductor goes on, she labors under the impression for awhile that the car is her drawing- room, and it is inoumbent on her to en- tertain her passenger callers. But they soon get over this, and then only speak when first addressed. The result of the innovation has been that the receipta from fares the first month were more than doubled! At first thie in- crease was attributed to the novelty, but when the receipts continued to increase there were two reasons assigned. First, the collection of fares that the old glass boxes didn? get; second, there was always someone on the cars. Before the lady con- ductors went on it was not unusual to cars go by without a single passenger. a city where one can walk the entire dis- tance of the street-car line ang Tongans | citisensprefers to walk when he has ‘ask a gentleman to repeat his visit, but pany rather than ride in a big car all by | to accept and. Th | young lady should not ask a man to call winter, of dark gray skirts of short length, with coats and hats of the same material. In summer the uniform is made up of linen skirt, straw hat and any variety of shirt- waist. They have no pockets, but have sus- pended from their belts a large chatelaine purse, in which are carried the tickets and cash. ‘ The girls can ring up fares and make change just like any other conductor and, in a limited way, can help on and off the aged and infirm, but they would never be able to take care of a car in a big city. On rare occasions they meet with unpleas- ant experiences, but on such occasions the motorman is always present. About a year agoa gay drummer got on one of the cars from a train getting in here at 9 o'clock at night. This drummer’ was the only passenger on the car, except’ one other young man, who happened to be - . the lady conductor’s friend. The drum Bo ee seemed very much amused when he found: — that the young lady on the car was the conductor, and at once began to annoy her. The young lady stood his impertinence’ without a word until forbearance coased: to be a virtue, when the young man took 4° hand. It was not long until the two con: ductor’s champions were sitting on the drummer, who conveniently lay on the floor. When the car reached the police station the latter was unloaded and spent the night in Jalil. ts #ETIQUETTE IN LITTLE THINGS# | When the A’s and B’s Meet. RS. A. introduces Mrs. B. to Mrs. ©.

The exceptions are In case of an invalid, an elderly woman, or in cir- cumstances where a Woman requires as- sistance or protection.

After the first call a young lady may himeeif. With the lady conductor to start che «should not appear eager, nor should with, passengers kept getting on just be- cause the other fellow did.
