EB Your Husband. « COS SOOO OSHS OHEOTODG Mrs. Martha Parent of 3200 Locust street, @ widow, waited two hours Thursday in the Office of her attorneys, T. B. Edwards aud Charlies Peters, 1098 Union Trust building, while her dream of a rich marriage van- fehed in thin air. The bridegroom, Thomas Benton, failed to appear. This is the second time in three Gays in which Mrs. Parent has kept an appointment with Mr. Benton, anticipating the fruition of her dreams and his prom- ises. Mrs. Parent and Mr. eBnton were to have been married Tuesday at 4 o'clock at his boarding place, 3104 Clark avenue. Rev. Mr. Kelzer of the First Christian Church Was summoned to perform the ceremony. Mr. Benton appeared, sans a license, dut the bride staid away. Thought Him a Monte Cristo. Her belief that Benton was a modern Monte Cristo had been shatiertd by a note phe received, signed with his name, shortiy before the hour set for the weddiig aski:'g Yor the loan of $43 to pay express charges ‘on $47,000 in bonds, his nuptial pregent. Mr. Benton saw Mrs. Parant Tuesday ~~ .—g@vening and explained how even a wen man might sometimes need street car fare At noon Wednesday Mis. Parent visited Mr. Benton at his board is place, prepared ‘to marry him at once in case he had heen successful in straighteniag out his husiness affairs. Mr. Peters and Mr. Edwards cf the law firm accompanied their client, Mrs. Parant. : Mr. Benton conferred with the trio, Bmiled.on his fiancee, and assured her at- torneys that he would produce evidence that he was a wealthy Texas ranch owner, 4 millionaire and was prepared to marry and care for Mrs. Parant. He would prove all this by appearing at Edwards & Peters’ law office Thursday at 11 o'clock and showing some real money. Woman’s Wait Was a Vain One. Mrs. Parant waited in the law office for two hours Thursday for her fiance. He failed to come. Mrs. Parent smiled and was happy. though her dream of unlimited Wealth and a life of happiness in the Lone Star state was ended. She told the story of how Mr. Benton had wooed her and won her heart. "TIT met Mr. eBnton about six weeks ago - when ho came to the boarding house I was conducting at 3200 Locust street, asking for board.

In one of the briefest cupbatone battles in the experience of St. Louis, Mrs. Susie Goldstone, postmistress at Maffitt substa- tion, Seventeenth- and Washington avenue, defeated an unidentified highwayman Mon- day night. Two robbers engaged her husband, Ber- nard Goldstone, on the street In front of his store, 1707 Washington avenue. Mrs. Gold- stone ran to succor him and attacked the larger of the robbers. ee Me a. He was six feet in height and weighed 180 pounds. She is five feét eight inches in height and weighs 140 pounds. The fight lasted one minute. Round 1. The postmistress came with a rush and landed a stif€ right on the high- wayman’s jaw, jarring him severely. Tak- en by surprise, he turned with his guard down, only to have his head sent back with a jarring left to the nose. The high- wayman was a heavyweight, but the jolts visibly jarred him and he retrented. The postmistress saw her advantage and forced the fighting right and left to the highway- man’s face, rocking his head. He tried to rush to a clinch, but the postmistress side-, stepped his rush and hit him a clip on the side of his head. As he turned ne met a ripper with his solar plexus which doubled ~~ 4) THIS POSTMISTRESS KNOCKED OUT HIGHWAYMAN him up.

At the time it was thought that robbery was the motive that prompted the assault, The detectives do not take that view of it, and now the Gojdstones believe that the assault was premeditated and that revenge was the sole reason. , The Goldstones have an agency fora cut- rate laundry, and it is proposed to’ estab- lish a laundry that will continue to cut the rates for laundry.

Morris Fleischmann, who swore out a warrant Wednesday against William Garen, manager of Havlin's Theater, found himself in a peck of trouble Thursday when he called at the Four Courts to see what was going to happen to Garen. Fleischmann entered the sheriff's office and asked Chief Deputy Charley RBilhartz how his case was coming along. Mr. Bil- hartz asked what case. “The case against Garen.”’ “Oh, yes. That's the case where Fleisch- mann is the prosecuting witness. Do you know Fleischmann?” “Yes. That's mo.” “Well, IT am glad to know you,” said Bil- hartz in his politest manner. ‘“‘We have had a warrant for you for nine months and could not find you. You have spread the report that you were in Florida ani 1 will just take you on that warrant now.” Fleischmann, who runs a saloon on Mar- ket street, between Broadway and Sixth «treet, had one of those big music ma- chines which the law prohibits from being operated in saloons.

That, too, was soaked with biloed, which ran from the upper wound. Many locks of his hair were carried away, and, in sume places, his head was made bald. His trousers were cut into strips, and, bee fore they were divided, they were cut inte smaller pieces. Many of Tracy's cartridges were divided among the members of the posse, and those that could get at the buckskin bag. —+0*——— elares Tracy “Has Revolutionized Business” Eugene T.

There are occasional deviations, but I have never found an author daring enough, with his publisher's eye upon him, to stray so far from the beaten track as to have his villian cut such capers as Tra- cy Jid. 4 By his actions Tracy has revolutionized the business of the dime novelist. Hence the writers of 10-cent thrillers will have to make a markéd alteration in their scheme of plot and construction. They must work on new lines or shut up shop. _And these may mean the narrowing of the field.

SAWYER. as an — =i — Tracey Was Desperado in His Youth, Says an Old Associate Special to the Post-Dispatch. CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 7.—The Rev. Robert C. Wuestenberg, pastor of the Woodland Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church in this city, was a boyhood as- sociate of Harry Tracy, the Western out- law, and today gave his recollections of the boy as he knew him. It was at Bellefontaine, O., that Mr. Wuestenberg first met Tracy. The latter was then 14 years old, and he had, ap- parently, developed all the characteristics that have since made him one of the worst desperadoes in the West. “Harry Tracy was born at Louisville, Ky. said Mr. Wuestenberg. “His father was a well-known and respected traveling man. His mother died when he was qa small boy. When he came to Bellefontaine, he had a younger brother, Nathan, who was unlike m. “Being without the gentle and restrain- influence of a mother, Harry soon de- veloped into a street arab, and became wild and unruly. What impressed me most of all was his extreme cruelty even as a in course, did not associate with him closely. Hie went with the other boys of his own age, but he was never q leader among them because he was too much of a bully. [I remember that the boys were dig- gusted with his cruelty. He seemed to have no sort of feeling for dumb animal«. It was a favorite pastime of his to tra birds. He would catch them alive. an would pull their legs from their bodies and gloat over thelr agontes. “He would also catch a cat, tle it in a tree by its feet and shoot its body full of bullets. He would laugh when he saw the ose oo He never saw a dog without ston- ne it. “In those days, Tracy was a dead shet. He could strike a match with a bullet from a revolver at fifty feet, and he could shoct ‘almost as well with his back to the target, using a mirror to sight. “Tracy was an {[ntelligent boy, but be was a confirmed sneak. His only rede.me- ing trait was his love for hie father “The boy went from bad to worse,” sfaid Mr. Wuestenberg, “and, at the age of li years. he had become utterly hopelers. I met him afterward at Columbus, and he had develoned into a lawleas Aeaners- boy. I was three years his senior, and, of do. He might have turned out different if he had had the care of a mother.” ¥ Story of Traey’s Last Stand by Cons —_—— — a C. A.

The armed men or- dered several felons to pick up a ladder and place it against the wall. This was re- fused despite the fact that the demand was backed by ugly weapons. Seeing that they must act unassisted, Tracy and Merril! picked up the ladder, and, leaning it against the wall, quickly ran to the top. “racy now, as at all times, took the lead. He shot Jones, who was at his guard box on the wall. There is some controversy as to just how Jones was shot. The indications are that he was killed as he sat on a high chair in the box. He did not use his rifle or make any attempt to do so. It was found leaning in a corner of the. box, loaded Before scaling the wall the armed con- victs shot at ‘“‘Frenchman’’ Tiffany from the rear of the foundry. With Tiffany was Duncan Ross, who was about to relieve Tiffany and assume charge of the post. The bullet struck Ross in t forehead, but was turned aside by his hat, which was ripped open around the brim. Ross fell flat upon the wall, and at che same moment, probably supposing that his companion was killed, Tiffany jumped to the ground on the outside of the inclosure, taking his rifle with him. Tracy and Moer- rill climbed the wall, and, puliing up their ladder after them, placed it on the outside, amid a rain of seven bullets sent at them by Deputy Warden Dilley and Guard Jay McCormick, and descended to the ground. Ross regained his feet and called to Tiffany to come back upon the wall, declaring they could best fight there. Tiffany called for Ross to jump to the ground and assist in heading off the escapes. Ross obeyed, and, as the two men started to run around the wall, they came face to face with the des- peradoes. The guards dodged toward the wall and attempted to shield themselves by the slight projections on its surface. Tracy and Merrill were determined, and having the drop on the guards, ordered them to come out and surrender. This Tiffany and his companion did. The out- laws then marched Tiffany and Ross in front of ther, using them as shieids until the bridge spanning the creek 40 yards from the penitentiary wall was reached. While on the march to‘the bridge Tracy swore repeatedly, and cursed Tiffanv. He seemed to be working himself into a pas- sion, and on arriving at the bridge Tracy sent a bullet through the guard. As Tirf- fany fell he knocked down Ross, and the latter lay perfectly still while the two convicts hurried for the brush ahead. Be- fore leaving Ross and Tiffany, the mur- derers took the latter's rifle. emptied his cartridge belt and threw the empty gun and belt to the ground. Then the long pursuit began. THE MURDER OF MERRILL Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 7. — Outlaw Tracy's own story of his murder of Mer- rill, the convict with whom he escaped from the Oregon prison, is characteristic of the desperado. “I shot him in the back,” sald Tracy, while conversing with Frank Scott, wer: accompanied him to Seattle on the N. & 8. launch. “We re The day before the quar rel we found a newspaper which contained an account of our escape and the pu.suit. That account gave Merrill equa! cvedit with myself for the deeds which I alone com- mitted. The newspapers s:nce we escaped have all along persisted in giving him equal credit for the escape and the get- away with me. The fact of the case is he did not have the nerve of a rabbit. He al- ways wanted to sneak through the coun- try, keeping under cover, and preferr«d to go hungry rather than show himself for the purpose of getting food. “No man can take me alone. And if I had a proper traveling companion, a man of nerve, I couldn't be taken by a regiment of deputies. “If Iam shot it will be from behind. And with another man to guard the opposite direction, a man of some nerve who knew how to handle a gun, we could go wherever we wanted to and not be compelled to keep under cover a portion of the time, as I am in traveling alone. “But Merrill wee n. g He was never anything but an impediment to me, and I am glad he is out of the way. I never could trust him on guard, except in places where there was no danger anyway, and then he was.so frigntened that at times he would wake me up needlessly in the fens that we were being surrounded. “So when I got a 2vopy of the newspaper, and saw that the reporters and the people thought h3 had some nerve, it made me hot. I thought at first I would shake hirn and travel alone, but before we agre2d to sep- arate I taunted him with his cowardice, and he got huffy. Then we agreed to fight a dvel. This was in the woods in Lewis County, not far from Chehalis =) “We agreed to start together from a line, and walk 10 steps each in opposite directions from each other, and then turn simultaneously and begin firing.

She was crouch- ing against a tree, while half a hundred and more cows stood around, chewing their cud and watching the little waif. The flaxen-haired, blue-eyed tot was last seen swinging on the gate and singing to herself. It was not long until she was missed, and after the parents had made a fruitless search the alarm bell was sound- ed and the neighborhood, by telephone and call, came in response and oined in a sys- tematic search, which continued until guc- cess crowned their efforts. There wus a heavy rainfall Sysing the night and the little tot haif lay, half crouched in a pool of mud and water, clothed in a little gingham alip, which was mud-covered and water-soaked. Mud in- crusted its arms and face, and its appcar- ance was most pitiful, but the littie one Kave a merry laugh when eager arms Snatched her. up, and the dirty, mud-cov- ered baby was showered with kisses as she passed from eager arms to mm oa hag While a great shout, taken up hunters far and wide, proclaimed this fide ings.

ABUSIVE WHEN DRINKING SIXTEBN-YEAR-OLD BRIDE’S LIFE HAD BEEN FULL OF MISERY. = When Girl’s Father Procured Rifle the Murderer Shot Himself and Fell on Body of His Dead Wife. Lillie Watkins, in whose 16 years of life more than one had been spent in marital misery, was brutally murdered by Riley Watkins, her husband, in the presence of her little sisters in front of her home, 5304 Wise avenue, at 7 o’clock Wednesday night. Having made sure that his wife was dead, Watkins killed himself. The double crime was the sequel of the persecution of a man, who tried to force an unwilling woman to live with him when she could no longer submit to his abuse. Lillie De Moss was a mere slip of a girl, living with her father, Louls De Moss, 4 carpenter, when Watkins, a lusty young laborer, 27 years of age, came wooing her. His attentions were never graciously re- ceived, either by the girl or her parents. Watkins was a widower, and it was com- mon report that he had led his wife a stormy life. So that when he began to call at the house of De Moss he was coolly re- ceived. He was of a persistent, stubborn disposition, and would not be brooked ia any of his desires. After a short courtship he won the con- sent of the child by means of bluff and threats, who, according to the reports of the neighbors, was simply terrified into be- coming his wife. They were married in February, 1901, and at once went to live with the bride’s pa- rents. After a few weeks of comparative happi- ness and quiet, Watkin’s real character be- gan to assert itself. The girl-wife com- plained to her mother that Watkins, in fits of intoxication, beat her, and showed her bruised body in evidence. Went Home to Her Parents. Wash fabrics.

CLARKE NICHOLS, PRETTY FACE WO TEACHER'S PLAC ALTON SCHOOL BOARD GAVE PALM TO BEAUTY. CHAIR OF RHETORIC FILLED Phétographs Were Sent by Applicants and Iowa Girl Was Easy Winner, The members of the Alton Board of Edu- cation have selected a new teacher for the class of rhetoric, in the High School, and they made the selection of Miss Emma Reppert of Burlington, Io., because she was pretty. The members of the board advertised for a teacher, and many applications were sent in. : Some of them sent their photographs, and through this means Miss Reppert secured the position. Her qualifications are considered Ao be good, but the members of the board select- ed her because her picture showed her to be a beautiful and winsome maid. When they held their meeting and looked over the app!ications and the pictures, there was a general expression of admiration for the picture of Miss Reppert. After considering her record as a teach- er, the members deci@ed that, taking all in all, she was the person they ought to have in charge of their rhetoric class. It was a case where beauty won the prize. Russians Fight Cholera in Vain.

LONDON, Aug. 7.—Replying in the House of Commons today to a request of Lord Charles Beresford for assurance that no binding agreement would be concluded be- tween the government and the shipping combination without the agreement being approved by Parliament, the premmMer, A. J Balfour, said: “I do not think it possible to negotiate on this or any other subject if the pro- posed terms are to be publicly discussed before the government has concurred in them. The government, however, is most anxious to take the House into its confi- dence at the earliest possible moment.” Mr. Balfour’s reply has’ particular inter- est as Belfast dispatches today announce that the government accepted J. P. Mor- gan’s offer to give the admiralty claim on all the combine’s ships. As evidence of the acceptance, it is stated that the government has chartered the Corinthic, the first ship built for the com- bine, which pee aw wane completed at the d-Wolf ship yards. “eauivies show that belief is general that J. Plerpont Morgan's offer practically has been accepted by the government. The Belfast dispatch may slightly antic- ipate the technicalities required to close the agreement, or.may not allow for the changes inserted since the offer was originally made, but there appears to be little doubt that h ny — of the scheme to the cabinet. " BO organ Co., when asked con- cerning the reported eement, adopted the same non-committal attitude as Pre- mier Balfour. —— Prosperity of Ntional Banks. Special to the Post-Dispatch, WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—The comptroller of the currency has «ompiled the follow- ing figures on the condition of the National banks of the country, based on the report of 4,585 institutions on the close of business July 16: The loans and discounts tn 12 amounted to $2,221,989,411 $2,956,903,375 in 1901. The national creased from $119,008,811 in. 1901 to $115,019,- 625 In 1902. The most remarkable gain was in the amount of individual deposite, which ierrenees from ek a in 1901 to $3,098,- n he total resources in- $5,675,910,042 to $6,008,754,975. He made no effort to evade the sheriff, who arrived in a few hours and took him to jail. Father and son had previously had trou- ble about the management of the farm, owned by the father and tilled by the gon. The father went to make a contract with his son for the wheat. A contract was proposed and presented for the son's signature, but he refused, whereupon the father demanded possess:on of a team that young Ragsdale had used for some time. The father secured the. team and start- ed to drive them off the prem ses when the young man ran into the house, se- cored a revolver and, returning, ogenes fire on the father, shooting him five times, killing him almost instantly. WARE STIRS UP HIS CLERKS. Pension Commissioner Punishes Drunkenness, Incompetency and Shirking. Special to the Post-Dispatch, WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—The business methods of Eugene F. Ware, pension com- missioner, has caused excitement among his clerks. Mr. Ware is not running his department to make soft snaps for anybody. Every- body must work, a condition extraordinary in a government office and particularly so in the pension office. The commissioner watches the work of all of his clerks. Those who shirk or are incompetent are promptly discharged and they are never taken back. His latest crusade is against excessive use of intoxicants. Seven men have been discharged this week for that offense and others are slated to Eo.

That admission is fatal to his usefulness. If he had courage and endurance to fight the rascals to a finish, he would not have resigned. He can withdraw his resignation now if he feels equal to the task. But if he persists in res'gniug, why re-elect him to an office he has deserted? Why try to force him into a battle for which he confesses he has no stomach? We need in the House of Delegates not only honest men, but fighting honest men who will not surrender to the bood’ers.

Gee a oe > |e ces oe The question, why did the House of Delegates defeat the street railway bill, may be supplemented by another, How much? = REED'S MUNICIPAL WORK. - Mayor Reed's victory over the Metropolitan Street Railway Co. in Kansas City is a brilliant example of good public work. When Mr. Reed was elected, two years ago, the Metropolitan owned the town. It bribed juries and assemblymen and bossed doth perties and ran public affairs for the private benefit of its eteckholders and managers. Reed began war at once. Two of the company's officials are fugitives from justice. The president re- fuged to produce the corporation books on the plea that they would incriminate him. The grandjury mercifully accepted the Gebasing confession and fet him go. Then things became so hot that the company surrendered to Reed, conceding him everything be demanded. The company is to pay 8 per cent of its total receipts in lieu of taxation, out of which all taxes are to be paid and all surplis will go to the city. This sum, however, shall never be less than $100,000 a year. The company is to expend $6,000,000 immediately in tmprovements and pave the streets between the tracks and 18 inches on either side. all lines end a satisfactory schedule is insured. Reed's success in Kansas City is like that which followed the fight in Chicago when Harrison brought the franchised corpora- tions to terms. And in Cleveland Tom Johnscn subdued the street railway companies by the éxercise of the same qualities of mind and character. ) This kind of work can be done in any city by this kind of men.

Marry Tracy, the outlaw, was good as his word—liberty or death. Tracy is already invested with all the mystery, wonder and nobility of a popular hero. A man needs only toe be physical y courageous, picturesque and violent to become a dime-novel per- sonage. The popular imagination is always alert and the inci- dents of Tracy's murderous career are already tinged with ro- mance. But a serious interest attaches to this bloudy outlaw. He illustrates the principle of personal liberty, minus the social ingredient without which freedom is barren isolation, and liberty @ life not only free from social obligation, but a state of positive hostility to one’s kind. With the intelligence and force which go with real greatness, Tracy was a mére beast of prey, lacking the quality which elevates the beast to the grade of a social animal or man. Tracy had force and intelligence’ which he employed for the sole benefit of Harry Tracy. And he had his reward. If he had been a little wiser he would have been a man. might have done must always be matter of conjecture. But one thing is certain. Had he had the social ingredient which human- izes force, his work as a man would have been néither common- piace nor mean. He failed, but he failed greatiy.

The New South Wales arbitration act is based upon the theory that a strike is a “nuisance and public injury.” An interesting provision is that which makes systematic organ- ization not only lawful but compulsory, and prescribes the powers and obligations of industrial unions. Strikes and lockouts are forbidden, being defined as misd>- meanors with appropriate penalties. The powers of the court of arbitration are defined, one of them being the power to prescribe a minimum wage. The orders of tho court are enforceable by: the ordinary processes.

Booth Tarkington, the pale Indiartta novelist, expects to be elected a member of the Indiana State Legisiature, and in case he is successful, there will be something do.ng right from the start. He already has in his breast pocket a bill, which he hopes to be in a position to introduce and elucidate with his own veice, providing for prizes to be awarded annusliy by a state committee to the producers of the best sirgle pieces of literature in the state during the 12 months ending each Jan. 1. His object ts to stimulate the production of good iiterature throughout the state; and this movement he hopes to extend to every other state, believing that the whole country would be b-ne- fiited tf out “mute, Inglorious Miltons,” who are at present tov -etruggle for recognition : Tt may never have occurfed to Mr. Tarkington, as it has to some poeple, that there is already too much literature. The visible supply of Nterature is even greater than the visib e supply of Carnegie Ubrarive, which is saying a great deal. A iarge per cent of the Mterary output comes from Indiana. and for ;ar it Mr. Tarkingtén is himself responsible.

In the Carpinteria valley, a few miles frum Santa Barbara, Cal, is an *normcus grapevine. It was planted in 1842 by Joa- quina Lugo de Ayala, and therefore has just completed its three-score vears. The first election in Santa Barbara County un- Ger American rule was h:2!d beneath its ample shade. This candidate for the world record is double from the surface of the ground up; the two parts are knit together in a David-and-Jonathan-like embrace to a height of about five feet seven inches, where they separate into huge branches, the largest having a circumference of three feet. Six inches above the ground the vine measures eight feet five and a half inches in circumference and it covers an area 115 feet square. Sixty posts support the frame- work. The owner says that were provision made it would spread over a greater sur- face, for it is pruned every year. Fabulous tales are told of the grapes this vine pro- duces. That it did actually vield ten tons in a recent season seems to be authentic. When the inhabitants of Sidestrand, near Cromer, England, awoke one morning a few weeks ago they were surprised to find that a large portion of a cliff on the seashore had sunk into the sea. Thirty thousand tons of earth had fallen and with it the wall and a portion of the graveyard of old St. Michael's Church. The ancient church tower itself is now in jeopardy, for during the day following the slip a further portion of the cliff crumbled away, leaving only a few feet between the tower and its edge. A grewsome feature of the slide was the unearthing of many long-buried coffins and the scattering of human remains far and wide. The authorities of Lisbon recently took a strange step to relieve the Portuguese cap- ital of loafers and beggars. These children ‘of leisure were gathered together, dumped ‘into a steamer and deported to the Portu- guese colonies in Africa. THE MOUNTAIN AND THE SQUIRREL.

Of- ficers and cadets will turn out in his honor and everything will be done by the superin- tendents of the academies to make his visit pleasant and interesting. The report was current In Pekin at the i'_me Prince Chen left the capital that his father was anxious he should go abroad for his health, it having been broken by over- indulgence in oplum and other vices pecul- lar to the gilded youth of China. Prince (hing accordingly informed the Empress Dowager that the minister of Great Britain had requested that his son. be named as special ambassador to Great Britain, and this statement resulted in the appointment desired. The report does not accord with tnforma- tion received at the state department and is indignantly denied by Wu Ting-faes. The voung is strong and healthy. He was educated in Pekin and underwent a course in the Pekin College, where he was taught a smattering of English. When he departed from Pekin for Shanghal, en route to London, he was escorted to the railway station by Bannerman and a detachment of troops belonging to the army of Yuan Shihkai, viceroy of the province of Chee- Lee, and boarded the special train wait- ing for him amid the cheers of the crowds of -aeneee and the military airs of the na- tive band. Nevef before had Prince Tsai Chen seen a railway train, but he conducted himself with the nonchalance of a locomotive en- gineer, expressed no surprise at the puffin engine or at the line of cars and betraye excitement as the special whizsed the country. His departure was by the British and Japanese representatives of other and some of them are re- ported to have expressed the opinion that he was an unsuitable selection and that “onee more a Manchu prince hag sacri- ficed his country’s tInterests to selfish ends.”’ Novelty of Railroad Didn’t Surprise Him. The conduct-of the prince at Shanghai and leaving China has effectually disposed of all these allegations concern- ing his fitness to pepessens his government rroperiy. He remained a week in Shang- ai, during which time; under the guid- anee of Str Liang Cheng Tung, appo nted minister to the United States, he made a careful inspection of the foreign settle- ment. He mingled freely with foreigners at social gatherings and showed himself to be affable, pleasant and cheerful in his intercourse with those he met. JIn fact, this has been the expertence of all who have come in contact with him since his in England and during his visits Netherlands, Belgium and France. has evinced a desire to learn all he possibly can concerning western civiliza- tion and the tndustrial and economic life if western people. His appearance and be- havior have aroused great respect § in Europe and in Shanghal, where it is stated thal ‘tno other Manchu prince, not even the experienced Prince u, could have behaved more correctly, maintaining the dignity of his position with perfect cour- tesy and cordlality, yet with a strict at- tention to all ceremonial observances.”’ Princess Charming.

Victims of London Promoter Said to Have Lost $100,000,000. LONDON, Aug. 7.—The official receiver announces that he has issued summonses against Whitaker Wright and Robert Le- man to recover $750,000 in connection with share transactions between the Britisn- American Corporation and the failed Lon- don and Globe Finance Corporation, limited. In the same report the receiver says that for the present it is not proposed to prosecute the directors of the London & Globe Co., for misfeasance: The city, however, is displaying the deep- est interest in the London & Globe group of companies and the demand that the pub- lic prosecutor act is increasingly insistent. A special petition has been circulating on the stock exchange and signed by many in- fluential men demanding the prosecution of Whitaker Wright, and it {s considered that the credit of the city and the stock ex- change demand a thorough investigation of the London & Globe methods of finance. Probably the full extent of the money lost to the public by the company will never be known, but financial experts now estimate it at upwards of $100,000,000. The floata- tions for which Wright was responsible ag- regated 41, with the enormous capital of 111,775,000, and, with few exceptions, all these companies are either in lIiquidation, have been absorbed or are defunct. What the shareholders will recover from. the crash may be imagined from the announce- ment that the creditors of the London & (Jlobe will receive only 5 per cent and that nothing remains for the shareholders. The compulsory liquidation of the Lon- don & Globe Finance Corporation, Limited, was ordered Oct. 30, s ABSENCE NO PROOF OF DEATH. Appellate Court Denied Wife’s Insur- ance Claim. Judges Bland and Barclay of the Court of Appeals, in an opinion from which Judge Goode dissented, reversed the de cision of the Circuit Court in the suit of Lena Winter against the Knights of Pythias. She sued for $2000 on a policy in the order issued in favor of her husband, Gustav Winter. He disappeared in Janu- arv, 1894, and has not since been heard of. After his disappearance, Mrs. Winter de- manded the money and was told she must wait seven-years before her husband would be legally dead, in the absence of any provuf as to what had become of him. At the end of the seven years she repeated her demand, and the order refused to pay her. Then she sued and recovered judgment for $2088. The Knights of Pythias appealed, and two of the appellate judges reversed the decision, holding that the trial judge erred in handling the cage. Chicago Municipal Humor. From the Chicago Chronicle.

¥ a s _THURSDAY-ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—Avcust 1, 1902. oe ALL THE NEWS OF THE SPORTING WORLD AMERICANS LEAD NN TENNIS. TOURNEY Finals in the Singles May Be Ended With Today's Matches. — NEW YORK, Aug. 7.—Today’s contests in the international lawn tennis tournament between the English and American teams, in progress ‘on the courts of the Crescent City Athletic Club, at Bayridge, opened with the third sets of matches between Malcolm Whitman vs. Joshua Pim and Wil- liam Larne s. R. F. Doherty. Rain in- terrupted play yesterday after both Ameri- cans, \VWhitman and Larned had captured two of the three sets which are neces- Bary to decide matches under the rules of the Davis trophy contest. The Englishmen were beaten off in both cases by the brilliant playing of the Amer- icans. im was particularly easy for Whit- man and lost both sets, 6-1, 6-1. Doherty put up a stouter exhibition against Larned, but the Americans fast and brilliant play was beyond the speed of the Englishman who dropped both sets, 6-2, 6-3. But for the intervention of rain it is probabie that the match would have one to the Ameficans in straight sets. ollowing thé’ conclusion of the deciding gets of the matches, the partners will be reversed, Larned playing Pim and Whit- man, Doherty. If the singles are concluded today, the doubles will be played Friday or Saturday.- The Englishmen hope to cap- ure these with their world famous team, he Doherty Brothers. Ward and Davis, however, have the confidence of the ex- erts here and the chances of the Davis rophy remaining in this country are con- sidered bright. The point score follows: First set-- Whitman (America) 4 Dr. Pim (Great Britain).. Second set— Whitman Firet set— W. A. Larned (Am‘n).5 R. F. Doherty (G.Brit.).8 Second set— W. A. Larned . Doberty CHARGES. AGAINST COLLEGE ATHLETE -_ Professionalism Is Alleged Against Champaign and Lake Forest Men. Special to the Post-Dispatch, CHICAGO, Aug. 7.—Charges of profes- sionalism and competing in unsanctioned games have been made against well known athletes of the University of Illinois and of Lake Forest University, and charges are pending against members of track teams of several other well known western colleges. The Central Association of the American Athletic Union is the aggressor in the apht for pure athletics, represented by Dr. . K. Herman, secretary of the associa- tion, and C. O. Duplessis, handicapper. The charges are to the effect that F. M. Cayour, the Indian football player, C. E. Bell and H. B. Ketzle, of the Illinols Ins l- tution, and 8. B. Herdman, of Lake Forest, took ng in races at the tournament of the Illinois firemen at Blue Island this weck, where cash prizes were offered. Officials ot the A. A. U. say the men will be sus- pended pending trial. Much faterest is manifested among col- lege athletes, inasmuch as Trainer Con- Nisbear, of Tllinoils, who brought similar charges unsuccessfully against Ed Merrell, of Beliot, early in the spring, now finds the character of his own track men assailed. BASEBALL PARAGRAPHS. Rain prevented yesterday's game at Bos- ton and the Cardinais packed their grips and left for Brooklyn, where they play to- day. The Bridegrooms are not taking to the Cardinals very well and Hanlon thinks he has a hard series on his hands. O'Neil will probably pitch for St. Louis today. Following the series with Brooklyn, in- e@ugurated today, the Cardinals go to Phil- adelphia for a series of three games, af- ter which the club returns home for two games with the Brooklyn aggregation. Pitcher Wiley Dunham has returned to the city and witnessed porrnay © ame at American League Park. The erainaly’ big twirler looks to be once more in shape and is fit, except for want of work.

Special to the Post-Dispatch, LEBANON, Mo., Aug. 7.—John Forest, a Grove Springs merchant, is dead as the re- ult of being struck on the head by a stone thrown by John Randolph, with whom he quareled Sunday afternoon. Randolph and: his partner, Josh Smith, ran the mail back between Niangua, a sta- tion on the Frisco, to Grove Springs, and had hauled some goods for Forest. for which service Forest refused to pay, claim- ing pe had given them no orders to get the goods. Smith attempted to enforce payment with a club, but Forest drew a revolver and was in the act of firing on Smith when panteocen threw the stone, which crushed his skull. Randolph surrendered to the local constable Forest was for 12 years circuit clerk o Wright County. RICH MAN IS FOUND DEAD. Circumstances Indicate He Was Murdered for His Money.

BROWNS MAY WIN AMERICAN PENNANT MIKE KRHOE CATCHER. Team Has Been Improving Gradually and the Schedule Is in Its Favor —Bostons Are Dangerous Rivals. ss Notwithstanding yesterday's set-back the Browns are more than in sight of the pen- nant. From the position of the team in the race at present and judging from its work from July 1 to Aug 6, during which time it may be assumed that the club has been playing at its best, it appears that the coveted flag is just fluttering outside the grasp of the McAleerites., Since July 1 the Browns have been gain- ing steadily and have come to the front in point of percentage of games won with a rush, passing even the strong advance of the Philadelphia Athletics and the Boston club. Up to yesterday’s game the Browns have won 20 and lost 12 games, a rate of speed which will win the pennant yet, un- less some unexpected brace pn the part of the other first division clubs occurs. From the present outlook less than .600 percentage will capture the pennant, though some club may take a spurt at the end and move out in front of the bunch. Figuring .600 as the ideal percentage to be made, the Browns will have to move faster than they are going at the present time. They will have to win 37 games and can afford to lose 19, which means that a percentage of .661 will have to be made for the remaineder of the season. To make this, every team in the League will have to take a decided brace, and St. Louls, on {ts recent form, appears likely to do it aS any team in the League, Browns mngeeting Gradually. If it is figured that the winning percent- age is to be under .600 the chances of the Browns improve, for the team has shown a tendency to improve gradually rather than by spurting. Whether the high water eek has been reached is the vital ques- on. On its performance since the start of July, Coleage does not appear to be in the hunt. In that time it has played at the rate of but .485. The team has suffered in its itching de- partment, however, and this defect may be eliminated by the recovery of the great staff possesses by that aggregation. Phila- delphia’s work for five weeks makes it the rincipal contender with the Browns for ret playing honors. During the period named the Athletics and lost 11 contests, a per- have won 17 centage of .607. Boston, the team consid- ered by most critics as the dangerous fac- tor of the first division clubs up to yester- day’s game and since July 1 has won 16 poms and lost 15, a rate of but .516. Lat- erly the team has gone at a whirlwind pace however, and it may be that (Col- ins’ aggregation wil spurt to the end. It is uch more likely to receive a set-back, owever. Fielding Work Compares Favorably. If figures favor the Browns in the final Struggle for the flag, other conditions are not adverse. It is true the Browns are bat- ting no better than sixth in the team av- erages, but its work on the bases has been good, its fielding compares with the other clubs of the League favorably, and its pitching department is now in shape to stand the strain of a hard finish. Three of the staff are in the first 20 of the League pitchers, Donahue, Harper and Powell, a proportion which is not excelled by any other club. Not a man on the team, barring acy fs whose finger is almost well, is out of condition for active work. ‘ To top this off the schedule favors the home club which does not play any games in the East from Sept. 1 and during | e entire month of eptember meets only one of its forinidable first division rivals away from the houme grounds. Sept. 19, 20 and 21 the eiub does to Chicago—the only foreign engegement during that month that shoud prove rormidable to the Browns. Two oth- er series, with Detroit and Cleveland, will be played away from home, and the rest of the stretch running will be at Sports- man's Park. Schedule Favors the Browns. A fair proportion of games remain ‘to - ae : ea, i ; Pa Gaee. .a a ve A ge: _—_ ow — JOZ SUGDEN CATCHER WHY THE BROWNS HAVE CHANCE FOR THE PENNANT Work of leading American League clubs from July 1 to Aug. 6: 7.

DANNY DAUGHERTY ARRIVES Will Meet Woodman Here Saturday in Twenty-Round Contest at West End Club. Danny Daugherty, formerly champion bantamyeight pugilist, arrived in St. Louis this morning bright as a dollar and looking 60 per cent better than on the occasion of hig last appearance against Harry Forbes this city. Dn ests has an engagement to box 20 rounds with Kid Goodman at the West End Club Saturday night, the winner to meet Tommy Feltz. Daugherty's ring career hag been success- ful ce he met defeat at the hands of Forbes. In his various fights about the country he has four yictories to his eredit and not a defeat. Kid Goodman, whom he meets Saturda —_ was one of the box- ers who lost eo the Philadelphia bantam. It ook 15 rounds, but Daugherty won the on. HARRIS IN FIVE ROUNDS. rry Harris, who was touted as the Bw ehampion of the world after is return from England, was put to sleep mn five rounds by Daugherty, Goodman ig said to be improved since his fight with Danny, however, and on_his showing against Regan, should make a great fight against the Quaker city fighter. Daugherty is a fast, clever, strong two- handed boxer. He will fight an opponent at any style the latter choses and his ver- satility keeps his opponents at sea. His inclination fo meet hters at their own ame, however, stood him in bad stead in ig matches with Forbes, as the latter is a whirlwind in a swinging match, Daugherty will train at the West End Club.

Rumored That the Road Is to Be Taken Over at 150 and Sharp Advances in Its Stock Price Fol- lowed. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 7.—The return of Mr. Gates to New York has resulted in a de- cided increase of activity in the market, but the business has been done through a few houses and commission business gener- ally seems very quiet. London houses were heavy buyers of Atchison and Southern Railway, but in view of the well-known fact that there is practically no interest in Americans in London, the bellef was strong that the or- ders in -Atchison and Southern Railway Originated on this side. Louisville & Nash- ville was strong, the strength being accom- Panied by a report that J. P. Morgan had decided to exercise his option to take over the control at 150. It is believed that if this is done the stock will ultimately sell at 17%. The road is said to be earning 13 804 cent and its construction account has en closed for some time.

EDISON 5S DEVELOP STRENGTH Many Indications Which Point to a Materially Broader and Stronger Local Market. In most respects the St. Louis stock mar- ket was stronger Thursday. Libera! indi- cations of approaching strength and widen- ing activity were the two signs which served to make the day's sessions of more than ordinary interest, despite the fact that the morning’s business was of rather a restrictive churacter. There was quite a demand for Missouri- Edison Electric 5s during the session and this, following recent rumors of a lighting combination, was looked upon as altogeiher si nifleant, Neither the preferred nor common stocks were olfered in any quantities and, in the words of a broker, “It would not take a 100-share order to move both of them up 4 point or more.’”’ fraciede Gaslight common stock was bid for at $8, but there was none for sa:e. Among the bank stocks, Third National was the foremost issue, and was advai.ced 250 to 327%, without and trouble. Only a Small lot was offered at . As intimated in this column yesterday, there are exceedingly important mati rs brewing in this bank stock and pred ct ons are rife on Fourth S8treet of the develop: ments.

GRAIN MARKETS ClHuCAGO, Aug. 7.—Grains held toa very steady undertone on early trades today. Sept. wheat opened 4c down to unchanged at O8%@60c. Ca- bles were firm and the very good cash business in most of the marketa yesterday in wheat had a slightly etrengthening effect. ceipts were light but advices were to the effect that the country was giving up much of its wheat because of the fine weather for movement. A feeling seems to prevail, however, that much of the best wheat is being held back by farmers for high prices. Sept. wus bought sparingly and advanced to 60144,4@O0\c. Local receipts were 219 cars, one of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 134 cars, mak- ing a total for the three ints of 853 cars, against 501 last week and a year ago. Corn arrivals were only 41 cars. Cables were Slightly lower, but there was some covering by a big house earl , and for a timee prices were he:- ter.

Provisions opened easy on a liberal run of hos and lower yard prices. Pork was wanted and the demand helped other products regain part of the early joss.

SHORTS HAD BOUGHT FREELY A Lack of Speculative Backing and Nearly EverYone Bearish on the Crop Situation—Cash De- mands Good Generally. 7 Grain. Short sellers covered iarge lines of wheat, corn and oats today, the ca h st uation being the inciting cause, as tht striking them as shaping bullish. Consid- ering w heavy were the purchases, t e rain in price was reaily small, especialiy n wheat, which aypen see to indicate that a large amount of selling was go.ng on, likewise. Just as soon as the bears were through buliing the markets took a header and down they went, losing all the ear.y gain and more, too. The ciose was prac- wef at the bottcm and very heavy. WHEAT—September, the principal trad- ing option, struck 64c at the open ng, but there were so many more buyers th n se 1- ers that the market quickly rallicd. soon gaining %c. It was principally buyirg to secure profits, but there was aso som. itor long account by people who believed thire had been decline enough, for a time at any rate. eptember opened with sales at 64c to 6444c, the inside rate %@%c decline. and ad- vanced until 44@ c was bid. opened %c lower at c, sold at 6i4%c and 6044@66%-: was bid. The fact that foreign markets had not followed America’s further decline of yes- terday—cables reported Liverpool un- changed and Paris steady to %c higher— had considerable effect in calling a halt exceeded those of a year ago by 50,000 bu, but they were not half the 303000 bu that came in qa week ago. ditions continued perfect in winter and spring wheat sections and the Cincinnati Price Current said returns indicated a fe equaling or bettering early expecta- ons. The discovery that the stock of contract wheat had been reduced 215,00 bu since Monday created considerable uneasinees in the ranks cf the settlers, but though Chi- cago had advanced on strong export bids, it was said, not much o0o a ae- mand was stirred up here, and September sold 5c below that option in Chicago. Pri- mary receipts were still above last year’s, but clearances good and Liverpool had ad- vanced, though only %d. Paris, however, had — and was dull and 4c lower for the day. my or sold up to 64%c and December to ‘.@064c, later then falling back to ws but September not below 64%c. rimary receipts were 396,000 bu against 880,000 bu one year a gO. and shipment: . 95,- 000 bu, against 690. bu last year.

A large amount of short wheat was cov- ered and as soon as this demand let up the market began to go down, Indicating how lacking was speculative support in the shape of buying for long account. As soon as the traders got onto this they made @ quick rush to sell and such was the pressure that a break to below 64c and 66c took place.

CORN—The little speculation going on in the St. Louis pit appeared to be based en- tirely upon the Chicago chalk marks. As these showed September strong and Decem- ber weak, these options were affected about the same way. Magnificent weather for wintering the enormous crop being grown, of which the Price Current said fine pros- pects are maintained, was still the big bear effective in ‘comparing with 29,600 bu a year ago. ribs starting 5c /pool had declined argument.

A gradual toning up of the market fol- lowed the early changes in part throuzh covering by shorts, who did not pao reports of a better cash market in ClHlcago.

The late break in wheat and Snows ¢s- timate for a crop of 2,600,000,000 bu started the crowd to coltine, and as the buying had shut off appreciably and lost all the edge that shorts had put on fora while, there was quite a decline, and the close tec to wc below yesterday. .

These were still larger, and the 199,000 bu’ Weather con-- estimate for a 775,000,000 bu wheat crop, Mr. Snow may estimate it that high, but the government will not by a long ways. The week's clearances of flour and wheat romise to be large, but will fall far below ast year’s same week. Then there were over %,800,000 bu. The coming statement of Broomhal!l on Zuropean supplies of breadstuffs on Aug. 1 will probably show an_ unusually small amount afloat for and held in Eurcpean marketa on that date. The decrease during Juiy. according to Bradstreet’s, was 20,- M000 bu. Dut a part of this was the cor- rection of a previous error. A decrease of around 15.000,000 bu may be reported, how- ayer, which would bring the total Furo- sean available supplies down to 42,000,000 yu. or 31,000,00 bu less than a year ago when the decrease for July was 4,300,090 bu. On Aug. 1, 1897, European supplies were jown to 38.000,000 bu. These low stocks, together with crop failures in France and ‘ther European countries, started the bull campairn that culminated in the Letter deal.’ There are no crop failures this year in Europe, but undoubtedly their present low stocks are one cause for the well-sus- tained markets abroad. Recent reliable advices from Germany, says the Chicago Trade Bulletin, say that the consumption of rye as an article of fuod is steadily Sein ens in that coun- try, and that many miJjs have altogether given up grinding this cereal into flour. For so man ears has rye been a mere food- stuff | orth Europe that a positive de- cline in its use would mean a materially enlarged market for American and Russiin wheat. Broomhall cabled: This market ruled ex- tremely dull today. Wheat opened un- changed and unchanged at 1:30 p. m. Only %d fluctuation having occurred, that being in the nearby option. The undertone was steady, however, on the unfavorable weather in this country. Corn opened at %d decline on freer American offerings. later the distant delivery steadied 4d on covering by shorts. Cash business in wheat at Chicago yester- ‘day was 300,000 bu No. 1 North at 3% over ‘September in store. Sales of No. 2 red winter wheat were 100,000 bu. Sales of corn lat the seaboard were 72,000 bu. Charters ‘here were for 685,000 bu wheat and 100,000 | bu corn. | The August crop report of the Depart- ‘ment of Agriculture will be issued next Monda'y at the usual hour-—3 p. m. 8t. Louis time. An improvement is looked for in the condition of both wheat and corn from that reported a month ago. Then the average for winter wheat was given as 77, spring wheat as 92.4 and corn as 87.5. The stock of contract wheat in this mar- ket has decreased 215,900 bu since Monday, mainly through withdrawals for export, but a fair amount taken for shipment to outside mills. The total No. 2 red now in public elevators is 662,000 bu, where a year ago 2,453,000 bu was thus held. The Cincinnati Price Current says: ‘The fine corn vyrospects are maintained. Weather is more favorable for thrashing. Oats are yielding well with a low average quality. Wheat returns are equaling or bettirng early expectations.

Average Mortality From Famine for Beveral Years Past Has Been Fifty Thousand in That Por- tion of the Austrian Empire. VIENNA, Aug. 7.—After a special inves- tigation among the agricultural laborers in eastern Galicia, the Neue Freie Presse draws a gloomy picture of the miserable conditions which led to the existing strike. The average mortality from famine for everal years past, according to the Neue ele Presse, aggregated 60,000. borers’ wages range from 8 to 16 cents @ day and women earn from 4 to 8 cents a day. The peasants rarely taste bread and @xist chiefly on a soup, the principal in- @redients of which are water and herbs. LONDON, Aug. 7.—A Vienna dispatch, June 30, said that a great strike of agri- Cultural laborers was in progress in Gali- a, the laborers demanding an increase in ®@ wages of 6 cents a day for men and £ cents a day for women to double that @mount. A Vienna dispatch, on Aug. 6, re- orted that there had been many conflicts tween the striking peasants and the mili- y. A dispatch to the London Dally Express on Aug. 5 said that in one encounter be- tween the strikers and the military, 13 per- pons were killed and 118 wounded, and that in another case 200 persons were killed or wounded. Advices were received from Lemberg, Ga- licia, last night to the effect that the strike showed signs ©f coming to an end, com- romises having been reached in several stricts and the military authorities hay- quelled the disturbances in others, CITY NEWS.

HAVANA, Aug. 6.—The Platt amendment “and the Cuban constitution can be complied with, high officials here say. The Congress of the United States, not having approved reciprocity, cannot prevent Cubans seeking money to face the existing crisis and pay recognized and valid debts. It is the intention to negotiate a loan in the United States. The bonds will be payable tn American gold and are to be advertised in New York. There {s no jn- tention to contract debts with Europe, which might cause difficulties for Cuba or 6 United States. t is believed the loan proposition can he Brought within the provisions of the Platt @mendment, and that it will not be neces- Gary for President Palma to veto the bill.

Special to the Post-Dispatch, KANSAS CITY, Aug. 4.—Roswell, is planning to have the N. M., of a county fair,”’ on September 23 to 26 inclusive. At any rate, so says Jerry Simpson, the former Kansas congressman, who is now & resident of Roswell and the president of its this afternoon. “It'll really be a three-county affair he explains. Chaves, Lincoin and a Et have joined in the undertaking. the fy, though Mr. haan out in ew so, he already handles the like one to the manner | County he calls ‘‘Chav-vis,’ eady Spanish names Roen. Chaves for instance. the ‘‘Pay-gus river."’ After a bit you fin he means the Pecos. Mr. Simpson has a 480-acre farm in the famous Pecos valley—on the banks of the Kio Hundo, rather, just above where it empties into the Pecos, This _ is down in the southeast corner of New Mexico. The Hurdo rises in the Rockies about 100 miles away. Ordinarily it's a compar- atively trifling stream. But now and again it ‘“‘booms’’ and spreads all over the valley. : “It's a good stream, though,’ Jerry “Tt gives an does not Simpson says, take away. It’s our Nile—every time it overflows it covers our land with a thick sediment of the richest kind of: soll. The Pecos river is a good deal like the Arkansas—more sand than - water. It flows about 300 miles and finally joins the Rio Grande. Mr. —— maintains that the Pecos valle “the greatest apple and fruit country on earth, bar none.’ And to prove it he has brought along with him on this trip a bushel or so of samples. They're py Sig fine apples, sure enough— almost as a man’s head, red- cheeked and af fine flavor. “Mr. Hagerman of Colorado Springs has 640 acres of orchard,’’ said Mr. Simp- son. “He was offered $60.000 for this sea- son’s apple crop, by Chicago people. And refused it. He told me he'd have 150,000 bushels of apples. “We have no worms or Insects to both- er us. The alkali in the soil kills all borers and other worms. ‘But about our fair. I hope Kansas City will ag us a delegation. Our show will be worth seel Mthow. And =o only. a thirty-hour trip. We'll show a ificent lot of fruit. But that won't be all. urs {is a great cat- tle country, too. The Slaughter ranch, for tnstance, has 600 acres of alfalfa. They cut it every month for five months each year. And they take off over a ton to the acre at every cutting. And then all winter it's good pasture, for we never freeze up out there. “Well, at our fair we shall have contests for expert cowboys. We are offering $500 for the best ye gee omg we've got men who have records of roping, throwing and tying the legs of a steer al! in 31 or 82 seconds. “Yes, I'm an enthusiast on my new coun- try,.”’ concluded the former Kansan. ‘So must anyone be who once gets to see it and appreciate it.

MOSQUITOES HAY NO WARNING | - — SS NOISELESS INSECT ADDS TO NEW JERSEY’S DISCOMFORTS. WORSE THAN SINGING KIND Approaches His Intended Victim and Strikes the Blow Without Arous- ing Suspicion of His Presence, Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEWARK, N. J., Aug. 7.—A serious situ- ation confronts:Bloomtield, N. J., and the inhabitants of the old reyolutionary town are in a state brdering on panic. A peculiar variety of mosquito has opened its surnamer campaign in the town, and just what measures to employ in dealing with it is now occupying specia: attention. The ordinary type of mosquito is not feared. Every one there knows its ways, knows how to checkmate its rapacity. ‘lo- bacco smokKe, pennyroyal, fans—all these and more have proved effectual in past summers against the voracious designs of the little pests. But this year it is differ- ent, and unless the emergency calls forth the man the inhabitants of Bloomfield are likely to lead a perilous existence until the frost comes, The mosquitoes th?s year are voiceless. That is the whole trouble. Instead of a word and a- blow, it is a blow all alone, without the slightest sign of a preliminary accompaniment. Their ways are insidious, and therein they suffer by comparison with their brethren of former summers, who at least give warning of their approach by that long- drawn, tremulous battle speech, which so often preceded their demise under the palm 1FINE SHOES BIG CUT IN Ladies’ White Felt Hats, 89c Ready-to-Wear Hats — Lm em ply a styles — ape- for tomorrow § Qe $14 45, $1.25 and.. ~ Century’ s 15¢ Ladies’ Slippers, 353 aeeays LaGgies’ and Thleren’s High Rostyre s $2.00 Ladies’, M! and Boys’ High ntury’s imitation ~ a4 velvet embroidered Century's $1.00 Men's Canvas 25e Chi'dren’s Straw Sailors, 5¢ 2% Washable Tam O’Shanters wwe 8 Soys* Millinery Slaughtered.
