What promised to be a disastrous and fatal conflagration was subdued and a sick mother and her babe was saved by the presence of mind of women Thursday after- noon. It all came about through the curiosity of a small boy, who deeply desired to know iff gasoline and water mixed would burn. He was aware that water would not catch fire, and his thirst for knowledge led him to pour some gasoline into a pall of water and touch a match to it. His action was purely in the interest of popular science. What he desired to know was: Which is the strong- est, gasoline or water? Gasoline is inflam- able, water is not. Touch a match to the combination, which will be in the ascen- dancy. He had not yet learned that oil remains on top of water. But then he is only 9 years old. The name of the youthful experimenter is Don Dickinson, and he lives with his par- ent® at 1374 Stewart plica He and his brother, Gordon, 4 years old, were playing in the back yard when they espied a large can of gasoline on a shelf jn the cellarway, 1s Grind Out Os Sober Influence.

All of us in our sleeper were awake, And there was a godéd deal of noise, as some of the Knights of Pather Mathew were singing, and the rest of us were listening. A brakeman came through the sleeper and said that the train was tn the hands of robbers. All of began to hide our valuables. While we were gstowing things away the negro porter came in, very badly frightened, and confirmed the report of the brakeman. “There were several shots fired just after this, and in about ten minutes the en- gineer, whose name is Mooney, and the fireman came back and stated that the en- gine and express car had been uncoupled from the train and run up the track. “The engineer said that sik men had boarded the engine, and, presenting re- volvers to the heads of himself fireman, had forced them to leave the en- gine. . “*As I got off,’ said the engineer, ‘one of the robbers shot at me. A man in front of me fell, ard said, ‘“‘what the -—— do you want to shoot me for?” I knew then that the robbers had shot one of their number by mistake. The fireman and I ran back to the train. The robbers picked up thé man who was wounded, and put him on us and ihe the tender. Then they pulled out and that‘ was the last I saw of them.’ “The uncoupled coaches, 11 remained where they were about four hours Then an @nd shoved us up the road. About three miles from where we were stopped the body of the dead bandit was found in a Gitch by the track. It was ail doubled up and had evidently -been thrown from the engine. There were two bullet wounds in the body and one in the center of the fore- head. Was Too Badly Aturt to Escape Capture. “It was perfectly clear that the robbers had murdered their wounded companion when they found that he was so badly hurt that he could not escape capture. “We heard the report of the explosion when the robbers blew up the express safe. The messenger told us that the bandits got about $100,000. Of course I don't know whether his etp~tement was correct or not. “The engineer and fireman were very positive in their statement that the @ead robber was shot by his companions. The published statements that the robber was killed by the express messenger are erroneous. If the messenger had shot bandit, the robbers woulg never have car- ried the body so far before throwing it into the ditch.’’ Henning brought back several souvenirs of the hold-up, most of them being pgces of the safe, which was blown to pieces. Among the passengers on the train were Henning’s two sons, Arthur and Clay; Bergt. Haley of the Ninth district, Patrol- man Thomas Haley and several members of the St. Louis branch of the Knights of Fathew Mathew. L.&N.

Guess I know the bird o’' freedom when I see him.”’ A crowd stood at the corner of Sixth and Wash streets at 8 o'clock this morning, looking up at a huge bald-headed bird perched with outspreading wings on a tele- graph pole, and, of course, the man who knows it all was there. But it was not an eagle, but a atray buzzard, the scavenger of southern cities. How it ever got to St. Louis is a mys- tery. Walter Howard, at Sixth and Wash Squalling of a cat and a heavy bcating noise in.Wash street about 11 o'clock Thursday night. Going out he saw a huge bird in the middle of the street beating its wings and pecking savagely ata cat it held in its talons. Howard ran to the bird and tried to get held of ita wings. He thought it was-.an escaped caglie. ~But he was buffeted about and knocked down several times before he caught the bird from behind and held it down As he was carrying it to the sidewalk the bird pulled one of its wings from his grasp and began to peck his hands and bare arms and every time it struck it brought blood. With the assistance of a boy, who was also badly pecked, both wings were secured and the bird thrust into an empty room until morning. : When Howard opened the door of the room in which the bird was a prisoner Friday morning there was a rush of wings and Howard was almost Knocked down by the escaping bird. It got out of the saloon and flew to the top of a telegraph pole. Here it remained several hours with its wings outstretched, blinking at the curious throng below. Its red beak, tipped with a white hook, and its curiously wrinkled pur- ple forehead proclaimed to those who knew ihat it was the great American buzzard. Howard climbed the pole after it but be- fore he reached it the buzzard took wing and flew into the open window of a room above the saloon, almost frightening th« occupant silly. Before’ it could escape again Howard rushed up and secured jt. Thte buzzard is tied to the saloon door by a piece of manila rope tied to one leg. It was peacefully blinking on the R&idewalk about 10 o'clock Friday morning when a small, black, inquisitive dog came smelling along. It smelled the buzzard and in an instant there Was a whirl of feathers and black fur, howls from the dog and hisses from the buzzard. The bird's claws were firmly fixed in the dog's back and its beak was pecking into the dog’s hide. It took two men to sepa- rate the buzzard from the dog, which went up the street like a streak of black paint on porter in Fink's saloon streets, hoard the ton avenue, Brockman of 1415 Market street and Ella Mullen of 2214 O'’Falion., In the room where they were arrested was found men’s furnishing goods, many skeleton keys, 10 rings, pawntickets, razors, a bank book from the 8t. Louis Trust Co bearing the name L. 8S. Musler, anda strong box from the I. O. O. F. Lodge No. 132 Murphysboro, Ill. ' When they were taken to the police sta- tion they admitted their guilt. Ella Mullen, their girl accomplice, left her home sometime ago to live with her aunt, Mrs. Benvelope, of 3382 Laclede ave- nue. Brockman coaxed her to go with him from there. Since then she has lived with the other thieves at 1415 Market street. Detectives Cordell learned of the where- abouts of the thieves a few days ago Thursday night he followed Russell h.me, but arfests were not made until Fr-day. Some of the houses robbed by the th eves are: Candy store at 1002 Olive, rooming houses at 1603 Washington avenue, _ 1806 Olive, 1309 Washington avenue, 1685 Wash- ington avenue. It is thought that this capture will put an end to depredations of this character. CHICAGO'S MURDER MYSTERIES Dead Body of Another Woman Fqund, the Second in the Past Twenty-Four Hours, CHICAGO, Aug. 8.—The body of an uni- denithed womaa was found early today in a ditch near the Chicago & Northwestern Railway tracks, near Mayfair Station. There was considerable jewelry on the body, which was well dressed. No marks of violence “were found. The police are Mm- clined to the belief thut death may have resulted from an accident, but the discov- ery of this body following so closely upon that of the nude body of a woman last night in a field near State and Seventy- fourth streets, has led to an investigation on the theory of murder. TO FIGHT TEAMSTERS UNION Chicago Express Companies and De- partment Stores Have Decided to Refuse Drivers’ Demands. CHICAGO, Aug. 8.—The express compa- nies practically have decided to resist the demands of their drivers for increased pay and shorter hours, and have taken steps to protect their business, should the team- sters’ union call a strike, Coupled with this decision come rumors of a similar action by the managers of some of the big department stores whose stablemen and drivers are threatening trouble. Both decisions were reached at a secret joint conference in which representatives of some of the stores and most of the sey- en =e express companies wer@g present. In the Ratiwuy Express Dirvers’ and Con. ductors’ Union, No. 20, the express compa- pies will have to deal with a branch of the National Teamsters’ Union, which fought the packers and became involved in the freight handlers’ trouble. The plan of the express companies will be to order agencies not to accept perish- able goods billed to Chicago, and-to can- cel from all shipping agreements the clause which compels delivery. When shipments reach this city the express companfes will send word to the consignee that he must call for goods. Perishable articles will be sent py fast freight. DELIVERY BOYS STRIKE. Chicago Department Stores Were De- layed by Their Action. CHICAGO, Aug. 8.—Several hundred boys employed On the delivery wagons of the State street department stores struck to- day for an increase in their wage scale from $4 and $% to $6. Delivery of parcels was delayed to a con- siderable extent. As in the recent messen- ger boys’ strike, the boys made the affair much of a jollification. NO CHANGE IN COAL STRIKE. Mines All Idle and No Signs of Re- sumption. SHENANDOAH, Pa., Aug. &—The strike situation In the Shenandoah region remains unchanged and, despite all reports to the contrary, there are no visibie signs of preparation being made to resume work in the idle mines. The strikers hereabouts say a have not heard of an com- 1a white fence | pan its men to return WOMEN CAPTUR PURSE SNATCHERS Mrs. Harmon and Miss Ack- man Took Three Prisoners. BOLD YOUTHS INVADED STORE PROPRIETRESS AND CUSTOMER FOLLOWED THEM OUT. Boy Who Had Taken Purse Tossed It to a Companion, Who Was Caught and the Money Was Recovered. Two determined women, Miss Cora Ack- man and Mrs. E. L. Harmon, overpowered and held three negro boys Thuraday after- noon, after one of the boys had snatched Miss Ackman’s purse and had tossed it to one of his companions. — The women held their prisoners and turned them over to the police. Friday morning Miss Ackman went to the warrant office and obtained warrants charging petit larceny against George Buckmann, George Richards ani Layman Elder. The trio, all colored, and all young, are now fn jail, and will be tried next week before Judge Clark. Miss Ackman lives at 2819 Olive street. Mrs. Harmon, who is the widow of the late Harry Harmon, for many years a North St. Louis justice of the peace, is proprie- tress of a dry goods store at 2006 Olive street. Shortly after noon Thursday Miss Ack- man entered Mrs. Harmon's store to make some purchases. While Mrs. Harmon was making change Miss Ackman held her purse in her hand at her side. She was near the door. She observed three colored boys standing near her, and she noticed that they were watching the store and the street peculiarly. But it never dawned on her that they planned an attack on her. Suddenly one of the trio made a rush and grabbed her purse from her hand. He im- mediately tossed the purse to another of the trio, and all ran. Miss Ackman took after the one who had snatched her purse. He was barefooted, and easily outstripped the woman, who was seriously handicapped by her skirts. Mrs. Harmon joined in the chase and ane of the boys slipped. Before he could arise Mrs. Harmon was upon him. This was the DON DICKINSON WHO STARTFD THE FIRE. , PCLICEMAN LANE APPREHENDED Photographed by the Post-Dispatch. MST ABREST FOR LITTERING STREET AUGUST M. GRAEF. August N. Graef, employed as a clerk in & store at 19 North Main street, was ar- rested by Patrolman Lane Thursday after- noon charged with sweeping rubbish on the street. This is the first arrest made since Chief of Police Kiely instructed his men to start a crusade for clean streets. Lane arrested John Langdon, empleyed by the Perrin & Smith Printing Co., 217 Olive street, shortly after Graef was appre- hended. Langdon is charged with burning paper on the streets. Graef was placed on trial in the First Dis- trict police court Friday, charged with sweeping rubbish in. the street. He said he intended to place the waste tn a barrel near at hand. udge Sidener discharged him. Langdon will be tried Saturday. FLEECY CLOUDS PROMISE RAIN Dr. Hyatt, a landscape artist of local re- nown, fetched out his paints and brushes Friday morning and lined a bulletin of tn- terest to. every St. Leulsan. “Cooler Friday night and Satur- aay,” it read. What could be better? Thursday night was counter- pane weather, and the city slept under cover. If the tem- perature ts much lower it will he blanket weather in a day or so. “Partiaty cloudy and possibly local thunder storm are the last words in the weather sign, painted by the serene prophet. The temperature Friday morning Was 77. a decent show. By noon the metcury had reathed the & degree mark, but the sun was partially veiled by fleecy clouds, and the wind swept the streets pleasantly.

The water was brought, and the adventurcus Don foured a goodly quantity of the evapo- rant into it and set it in the-middle of the fioor while he ran for a match. ' New Baby Shared in Excitement. The cellarway is about 6x4 feet, and G6r~ don stood in the far corner near the gaso- line can and. close to a small window open- ing into the yard. The pail of water and gasoline stood between him and the steps leading into the yard and the door into the cellar. The moment waa propiticus for the ex- periment. Their mother was in bed asleep, and by her side was the new baby, only a week old. Everything was quiet, and there was no fear of interruption. Dan snatched a match and applied it to the surface of the mixture in the pail. There was a puff and flames shot up six feet into the air, even to the rafters of the celling. Dan now knew that gasoline was a much more powerful fluid than water. Younger Brother . Voiced a Wail. Gordon, penned in the corner by the flames and the wall behind him, did not appreciate the scientific value of the ex- periment because he Is only 4 years old. So he set up a howl that could be heard a block away, and Dan, seeing his predica- ment, lost ail interest in scientific pure sults and added his voice to the turmoll. The neighbors, accustomed to hearing the children screaming and laughing at their play, were not surprised to hear the boys yelling, but Thomas Dickinson's nurse, Mrs. Heburn, not wishing to have her pae tlent disturbed, hurried out to quiet them, only to learn the true situation. The flames were mounting high, and a lot of papers and rags in the area had caught fire. Mrs. Heburn saw the danger in which Gordon stood, and, running around, slid the window open and reaching in grasped that youngster by the collar of his shirt waist and yanked out and rolled him on the grass. Meantime Mrs. Mary Mack, who lives next door, heard the commotion and looked out to see what it was all about. “Run and get the garden hose.” said Mra Heburn. And Mrs. Mack and her daugh- ters, Mre. W. H. Turner and Miss Lauwrette F. Mack, both young women, manned the garden hose and made a coupling in 3 1-8 seconds, record time. Mrs. Heirs Joined Rescuers. Mra. James W. Heirs, who lives at 1377 Arlington avenue, looked cut of her back door and saw the smoke coming out of the cellarway across the lot. Fhe left her work and ran over. She at once realized thas fire or no tire, Mrs. Dickinsen and the new baby must not become alarmed or excited, She went into the house by the front way. Mrs. Dickinson had been aroused and was getting uneasy when Mrs. Heirs walked in as naturally as life, and said in a tone in which there was not a particle of excl ment: “How ta the baby this afternoon? Thought I would just drop in and see it.” And #0 they got to talking of the baby, and you know how it is when two womes get to talking about bables, nothing short of an earthquake can stop them. Out in the back yard, Home Guard Hose company No. 1 was battling bravely with the flames. Mrs. Heburn had run past the flames into the cellar, and had coupeé the garden hose there and soon twg streams were playing on the fire. On Arlington avenve, a painter, P. a Relderman, was at work In a new house He saw the activity in the yard across the way, and sauntered over tn time to see the fingh. He happened to be the only Man for blocks around. He was permitted to carry out the bucket on the end of a stick | and throw it over the fence. / THE WEATHER INDICATIONS. For &.

Thomas Farrell, Secretary of the Wag- on Makers’ Union, Receives a Painful Wound Below the Right Knee. A shooting affray, which was witnessed by several parties, occurred this morning at 1 a. m. in @ wagon shop iocated at Broadway and Spruce street. Thomas Farrell, living at 6117 Natural Bridge road, was very painfully wounded by a shot fired by one Billy Waldron, Hving at 2609 Sheri- dan avenue. Another workman, John Shee- han, living at 1024 North Tenth street, was also slightly wounded. Mr. Farrell, who is the secretary of the Local Carriage and Wagon Workers’ Union, was struck by a bullet just below the right knee, the ball passing through the leg. He states that Billy Waldron came into the shop, where he is employed, and that he engaged John Sheehan in conversation. He further states that there were no angry words exchanged, and that he is utterly at a loss to explain the attack. He has al- ways been on friendly terms with Waldron, who until recently was employed in the same shop with. him. Sheehan bears Mr. Farrell out in his Statement that there was no dispute be- tween himself and Waldron, but he says that Waldron made the remark that he was going to set even with Farrell for ‘“‘scab- bing.”” Sheehan, realizing that Waldron was in anything but a sober state, warned him to have a care, at which Waldron drew a revolver, and began firing. The injured men, as soon as they found themselves !n danger, made a run for the rear of the shop, so as to evade Waldron. Witnesses say that after firing the shots Waldron deliberately placed the weapon in his pocket and walked away. Waldron has, aa yet, not been appre- hended, Farrell's wound, while painful, ie not con- sidered by his surgeon as serious. He was removed to his home as soon as the wound was dressed.

Three negroes narrowly escaped drowning Thursday in an effort to secure a silver dollar. They are Robert Wilcox, James Sloan and “‘Buck’’ Jackson, roustabouts on the steamer Cape Girardeau. The boat was on the return trip from Cape Girardeau, Mo., and carried a large number of passengers. As is frequently the case the passengers became fatigued with the sports provided aboard the boat, and lookout for a more exciting game with which to amuse themselves. Someone suggested that a handful of pen- nies be thrown the roustabouts, who were gathered in the forecastle, singing. This met with favor and it wus but a few mo- until a pile of Scrambling dark es were piling over each other in quest of the spolls. Finally someone tossed a dollar onto the deck and in the struggle for this prize overboard. The shouts of the passengers warned the boat’s officers, who quickly lowered a small boat and rowed after the men. All swimmers, they were able to keep afloat until help arrived, when they were brought back to the steamer. One of the rescued men held the dollar |'while in the water, and on returning to the boat it to his envious compan- ions, displayed Take Care of Your Watch, A feature of business is high-class our ' watch repairing, which we do qnickly and “An All-Day Food” Wheat and Pure Fruit Combined | Until within a few years very little attention Was given specially prepared of high nutritive values, their use being scouted except to fount « invalids and confirmed _dyspeptics.

LOUIS The conference of municipal officers today is mainly for the purpose of taking measures for a clean city. Intelligent co-operation among heads of departments ought to insure improvement. The mayor, health officers, chief of police and police justices can, by united effort, compel the daily collec- tion of garbage by the collectcr and likewise enforce the ordi- nances against scattering garbage and refuse on the streets and in the alleys which so many citizens habitually violate. This is a work advocated with unbroken persistence by the Post-Dispatch, always foremost in pointing out public needs and always fearless in exposing official neglect. Municipal cleanliness should be the first, as it is the most con- spicuous, municipal virtue. Citizens are themselves to blame for a reckless disregard of the ordinary rules necessary to insure clean streets and alleys. They throw garbage, waste paper and other refuse wherever they happen to be, with the result that the streets are littered with a mass of unsightly and disease-bDreeding rubbish. In a city like St. Louis such practices are discreditable if not disgraceful. More important, however, is the daily collection of garbage. The contractor is paid twice as much under the present contract as he recefved under the former one, but the collection is Uir- regular and much less complete. He should be compelled to carry out his contract. To excuse the performance of such a contract for any reason is to trifle with the city’s health and expose its highest interests to needless peril. We are all working for New St. Louis and if {s time to put away all*the follies and vices of old St. Louis. [If officials will co-operate among themselvés and citizens with them, the work of cleanliness at least can be efficiently performed. The policy which seems to be proposed by the Manhattan éle- vated railway, in New York, of employing poorly-paid, unskilled labor, to run its trains, in place of the we!l-paid, responsible en- gineers who are now on the trains, will hardly meet with public approval. The proposed change is of wide interest, because if the company can succeed in making it, a aimiar change may be brought about al! over the country as electricity displaces steam. This is a question of public safety, as well as of economy for the railways. ——— = > A New Jersey company will have at the Wor!d's Fair aerial trolley cars for the transportation of dispatches, letters and light parcels, and it will also have a wonderful exhibition of what can be done with kites.

His movements were so quick and queer, He might ere long be coming Here, And some of us were moved with fear; But Tracy's gone.

It may be we shall have clean streets, Now Tracy's gcne; The bobbies all will walk their beats, Now Tracy's gone; The kids will mind their parents dear Of passing tramps we'll have no fear, And nothing will seem quite so queer, Now Traey's gone. Perhaps we'll down the Philipeens, Now Tracy's gone, Get them to eating Boston beans, Now Tracy's gone; Fitzsimmons may that bluff explain; And Hyatt may control the rain, And every puzzle be made plain, Now Tracy's gone.

Most of these outside workers (more than 2,700,000) are employed in foresiry or agriculture, including wom- en land owners [Industrial occupations claim nearly 2,000,000 more, the cloister 120,- 00. the theater about 12,000 and the liberal professions 128,460.

Most of these species are found in and around towns or are pests known to travelers and traders.

AMONG HIS CONSTITUENTS FAVOREDSTREET CAR BILL Sixth Ward Delegate, Who Is Considered Intellectual Superior of His Fellow-Gangsters, Says He Dis- eovered No One Who: Wished to Have Public Service Regulated. “IT haven't seen or heard of a person in the Sixth ward who favors. the street car bill. Not one has complained of my course as a member of the House of Delegates. If my constituents were for that measure, would not be against it.”’ , Charles J. Denny, representing the Sixth Ward, made this statement to the Post-Dis- patch Tuesday morning. In other words, Mr. Denny desires to go @n record as saying that of the entire pop- ulation of his ward—and it is something over 20,000—he does not know a man, woman or child who desires the passage of an or- dinance to regulate the operation of street ears. Not one who would have the speed of cars regulated. Not one who would have the street car companies run at regu- lar intervals. Not one who would have the cars stop at every corner where a pas- senger desires to get on or off. Not one who would favor legislation designed to prevent the maiming and bruising of his or her little ones. Not one who would bring within the limit of the law the great corporations enjoying franchises worth mil- lions of dollars, for which po compensa- tion has ever been paid to the city of St. Louis. At least Mr. Denny says $o, and if there is no citizen In his ward who will rise to refute his declaration it must be 8o. Denny Works for Gould Lines. Mr. Denny was elected to the House of Delegats a year and a half ago for his second term. He is an employe of the Mis- souri Pacific Railroad, holding a clerical position in the offices of that company at Seventh and Poplar streets. He is a tall, broad-shouldered young man, apparently about 30 years old. He is credited with being more intelligent and possessing greater shrewdness’ than the majority of his official colleagues. He has long been a worker for the Gould interests, and his employers give him credit for being a skilled clerk, steady, industri- ous and energetic. At the solicitation of his friends, he made the race for the House of Delegates and was elected by a substantial majority. \When the House was reorganized a few months ago there was considerable talk of making Mr. Denny speaker. liven the minority members, who have cteod for good legislation, rather favored hia candidacy. “Denny,” they said, “is a good fellow, seems pretty upright and ought to have enough independence to vote as he thinks right.” The combine had not been formed. Denny was being tried, and the gang now in power hated to trust a legislative ‘“‘cub.’’ But to quote the phraseology of (Cronin, “the gang has become wise. Denny ain't no bunko steerer. He is with. us when some of them other ‘guiness’ ait.” Proud of Gang Loyalty. Mr. Denny has made. a valuable acqulsi- tion to the gang. He has vofed and worked for the interests of the gang and he prides himself on his loyalty. Mr. Denny seldom talks on the floor of the House. He is not an orator. Above all, he lays claim to no rhetorical genius. But this doesn’t make much difference. His vote is all the gang desires, and it has had it on every proposition whichi the mem- bers have favored. Mr. Denny was seen by the Post-Dis- patch at his place cf business Friday morn- ing. He was busy checking vp railroad reports. Around him were a dozen other bright- faced young men, working assiduously, just as Mr. Deany was. They all know “Charley Denny.” he has had the title of ‘‘honorable”’ fixed to his name, they have come to look on him with more than ordinary admira- tion. Mr. Denny is modest and quiet, He sel- dom gets rattled. He rather impresses you as a man who never worries, who may do a whole lot of thinking and calculating, but never permits little matters such as a street car bill or a pure milk ordinance to disturb his mental poise. Mr. Denny was informed that the Post- Dispatch desired to give him an opportu- nity to explain his action in helping to kill the street car bill, which the people of St. Louis have demanded for the past two years. Had No Explanation Ready to Offer. “Ts that 60?’ was his reply. am not going to be interviewed.” “Have you no explanation to make as to your vote?” ! “No, sir; not now, at least. My acts will for themselves.”’ “Do you think your course cn that meas- ure meets with the approval of your con stituents?”’ “Well, I haven't seen or heard of a per- gon in my ward who favored the bill. Of course, I am governed by the wishes of my constituents.” “Do you regard any feature of the street ear bill as too severe” Another line in a report. was scratched out with red ink. He reached for a blotter, then replied: “J say I won't be interviewed. I do not ‘meun to be discolirteous, but this is one of those matters that 1 do not care ty alr in the newspapers.” Red Ink Work Went Right On. More reports were placed on Mr. Den- ny’s desk, and after looking them over, he turned to his caller and remarked: “J am not looking for encourageme nt or aympathy from anyone. I think I know what my duties are as 4 member of the House, and whether I am fulfilling them is gomething that concerns me alone.” “Do you think there is any chance of passing the street car bill, if cer- tain amendments which may be agreeable to the House members are added ai “{[ say I won't be interviewed. I will talk and explain at the proper time.” Several rows of figures were aided, the reports wera then laid agtde, and Mr. Den- ny picked up another batch and resumed his task with as much unconcern as if he were just casting a vote with and for the House ‘ganz.’ ‘Jim Since pre- “Well, I possible .

Delegates Listened to Arguments for and Against Bill Now in Their Hands—Dr. Starkloff Of- fers Criticism. The public hearing on the pure milk bill was begun before the sanitary committee of the House of Delegates in the House Chambers Friday morning. Delegates Buckley, Faulkner and Stanze, the members of the sanitary committee, conducted the hearing. The pure milk bill has passed the Council, and the matter now rests with the House.’ Dr. Chapman and Dr. Merrill and Health Commissioner Starkloff spoke in favor of the passage of the bill. Dr. Starkloff said that he favored the proposed ordinance. with the exception of the clause which placed the inspector under the direction of the city chemist. Dr. Starkloff, said the inspection should be controlled by the health commissioner. Attorney ‘ Steber, representing the dairy) interests, said that the dairymen favored the bill with the ex ion of clause which provides that ct{les of skimmed milk shall be labeled ‘‘skimmed milk.’ and unskimmed milk marked “pure.” Object to Most Important Feature. This proviso is regarded by friends of the bill as the most important provision, Dr. Chapman said that all milk shouid be kept at 50 degrees, and that warmer or impure milk endangered the lives of thousands of St. Louisans. He said that bad milk might kill a child within 24 hours. Milk sold, he said, should test at least 3 per cent butter fat. Dr. Merrill began to address the meeting at noon. Dr. Chapman's appea] for the passage of & pure milk law was the feature of the hearing. ‘*There )) ~—s are se sass . bec > > AR LASS RAS (Mes ¢ CITY 10 UNDERGD HUUSE CLEANING Municipal Crusade Against Dirt Planned. OFFICIALS CONFER FRIDAY MAYOR HAS CALLED DEPART- MENT HEADS TOGETHER. | Chief of Police, Judges, Prosecuting Officers and Health Commis- sioner Will Join in San- itary Measures. As exclusively announced in the Post-Dis- patch Thursday evening, a conference of city officials will be held in Mayor Wells’ office Friday afternoon to perfect a plan for the co-operation of municipal depart- ments to make and keep St. Louis clean. Mayor Wells’ decision to call the confer- ence grew out of his visits of inspection to each of the police districts. At each sta- tion he impiessed upon the captains and their subordinates that it,was their duty to see that streets and alleys are kept free from dirt, and to report every instance where garbage is not collected. The members of the Board of Public Im- provements have been invited to the confer- ence, and they will be urged, particularly the street and sewer commissioners, to have their subordinates co-operate with the police in seeing that the streets and alleys are kept clean and all violations of public cléaniiness reported. The police court Judges and the prosecut- ing officials have also been asked to the conference. and they will be charged with the duty of meting out just punisnment to those who wantonly interfere with the pub- lic efforts to clean the city. The members of the Board of Health will likewise attend the meeting and Dr. Stark- loff will be asked to have his sanitary in- spectors pay éspecial attention to unclean streéts and alleys, and particularly to un- collected garbage. President Hawes of the Beard of Police Commissioners and Chief Kiely will attend the. conference and it is thought that some effective plan will be devised by which all municipal departments, particularly those specified, can co-operate with the police in LEVEN DEAD AR TAKEN FROM MINE THIRTEEN WERE IN IT WHEN EX- PLOSION OCCURRED. ALL WERE PROBABLY KILLED Premature Powder Shot in Colorado Shaft Is Supposed to Have Caused the Disaster. TRINIDAD, Colo., Aug. 8.—The party at the Bowen mine, where a dis- astrous explosion occurred last evening, was compelled to suspend work at 1 o'clock this morning owing to firedamp. At that hour the bodies of 11 dead had been recovered. Ithere were at least 13 men in the mine at the time of the explosion and all undoubt- edly were killed. _ The known dead: James Hunter, single, miner. Frank Groats, married, miner. Joe Sanchez, single, miner. W. H. Elliott, miner. Felipe Fena. miner, Mexican, single. L. P. Jensen, miner, single. H. Creech, single, driver. J. Keanolly, ‘miner, single. Oscar Berg, miner, single. Joe Gordon, colored, single. Arthur Myers, miner, single. Tilden Winfield, colored. single. 5 No gas has ever been discovered in tne mine, and it is the opinion of the officials that the accident was caused by a prema- ture powder shot. The powder house at the mouth of the mine, containing about 1000 pounds of blast- ing powder, was exploded by the shock in the mine and great damage was done to the mouth of the slope. The town of Bowen, quarter of a mile below shaken and a number of broken. Immediately after almost the entire population of the town rushed to the mouth of the mine and the scenes there were heartrending. The mine is almost a total wreck as far as can be determined. The explosion occurred about one thous- and feet from the surface. The mine was quickly filled with gas and spoke, and those who escaped _ instant ‘death were undoubtedly suffocated.

Street car advertising has been employed by a St. Louis church as a means of call- ing public attention to its services. Placards announcing a special service, to be held Aug. 17 in the Church of the Holy Communion have been placed in the street cars of the various lines by Rev. Charles F. Blaisdell, rector of the church. Rev. Mr. Blaisdell, the originator of this method. of advertising, has been in St. Louis but a few months and was for two years previous to his coming here the as- sociate of Rev. David H. Greer, rector of St. Bartholomew's church in New York City. It is from a saying heard while there: “A minister, to reach a man, must fish for him with a specially devised fly.’ that his idea of advertising a men’s service came. Dr. Blaisdell believes that the card will attract more men to his church than have ever been within its doors. He says that While he wishes it made known that he LOCH’ PROGRAM Uh COMING M Club Will Distribute $15,000 in Purses During Open- ing Week, Horsemen racing in St. Louis as well as those at Chicago and other tracks ex- press themselves as pleased with the first week's program of the Kinloch Park Jock- ey Club's meeting, which opens. next Thursday. | ; Manager Carmody promises high-class | racing for the entire meet.

I en- deavor in my sermons to demonstrate to the best of my ability the manliness of the characters in the Bible, and especially In the life of Jesus Christ.”’ It is for these reasons. Dr. Blaisdell says, that he has selected the subject ‘‘God Loves a Man.”’ Rev. Mr. Blaisdell is himself a_ fine specimen’ of a man, tall and striking. His conversation is convincing and he holds the attention of his hearers firmly. Edu- cated at the University of M ssouri, he went East to complete his training for the ministry. He has been with the Holy Communion Church in the capacity of rec- tor since May 18, and has in his. congrega- tion many warm admirers. GOVERN AI CAME TOO LAT Tried to Rescue, Drowning Couple But Came In at the Death. BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,\ Aug. 8.—Terry MeGovern, former champian featherweight pngilist, made an unsucces¥ful attempt to rescue from drowning Miss I@a Miller, aged 2i. and George Culver, aged \55, who were capsized yesterday while saNing on the Housatonic river in Stratford. McGovern saw the boat capsize and at once jumped in with Joe Humphreys to try to lend aid. Culver was entangled in the sail and the young woman threw her arms around his —_ | neck and prevented him from aiding either himself or the girl. Both were drowned before McGovern and Humphreys could get to the scene of the accident. McGovern recovered the body of Culver, but it was too late. of Miss Miller was found later. a AMATEUR BASEBALL NOTES.

Father Henry Becker of Brighton, Ill., who is an aquatic expert, is a priest who believes that a man should first see that his soul is safe and then learn to float. He advises all who would shun watery graves to acquire the art of floating. He says that a person who really knows how to float need have no fear of ever being drowned. | One who can swim is not so well equipped for meeting an emergency in deep water as one who can float, he says. At intervals during the past four weeks Rev. Father Becker, who is in charge of the Catholi¢ Church at Brighton, has beem staying at Piasa Bluffs Chautauqua As- sembly, where his feats of floating in the water have attracted the interested atten- tion of large crowds. _, He has shown there that he can lie down on the water as another might lie down on a couch and repose there in apparent slumber for hours if he were disposed to stay in the water such a length of time. With only a part of his face out of the water, with eyes closed and muscles inet, he has floated about on the crumpled sur- face of the Mississippi as nonchalantly as a cork might float and with as little appar- ent effort. His Body Is Human Launch. Floating with the current involves no exertion on his part. It is only when go- ing across the current or contrary to the current that he uses h'is hands. With these serving him as paddles he cruises in any direction, paying no heed to the cur- rents, sailing around in a circle or head- ing here arid there like a veritable human launch. Not for his own recreation, but to please the children, whose favorite he ts, he some- times floats with an American flag held between his toes and another he!d in hig teeth, or holds them in his outstretched hands. As a special feat in floating he permits himself to be bound hand and foot and pushed into the water and floats away a Seer ene eee POST-SEASON GAMES NOT PROBABLE _.—_—- @Qoo —---- —_ Robison Is Opposed to Series Between Cardinals and Browns.

Paul Dillon, an intimate friend of Wefers and a fellow student of the former sprinter, received a letter from Wefers yes- terday asking if there was any outilock for an opening here. Wefers thinks St. Louls will be a great athletic center during and following the World's Fair period, and he would jike to be established here. It is thought probable that Washington University may want just such a man, as the Institution is branching out into al! departments of athletics. Hitherto the track team has heen an upimporiani feat- ure of the tInstliution’s athietics, chiefly ad want of a trainer and training facil - ties.

Secretary Hedges’ challenge offers many inducements for the National League man- agement to accept. Not least of these | would be the financial end. A series of seven games is Mr. Hedges’ idea of the contest, should it by some miracle eventually be ar- ranged. The management of the American League Park estimates that at least 75,00 persons would attend the contestk, and it is probable that this figure would be greatly exceeded. The general local interest in the teams, too, would be enhanced and the fans, }it Is thought, would turn out to watch the progress of the clubs from day to day. | Prize Would Be . $2500 Trophy.

JAUGHERTY WANTS 10 BOX ATTELL Philadelphian Thinks He Could Outpoint McKenna’s Man in 20 Rounds, If Abe Attell wants a battle after his own heart and qa promoter can be found to back the match, Danny Daugherty will give him one and such a one for cleverness and speed and science as probably was nev- er witnesses before between two little men. To demonstrate a theory, Da erty would like to meet McKenna’s s phe- netnenee in a 20-round contest for points purely. In a discussion as. to Attell's merits terday, Daugherty advanced the - pro tion that any fighter with fair speed, who yes- | was after points merely, could be as clever and rapid as Attell and create a great im- pression of possessing science. “To prove what I say, | am willing tq take on Attell any time in/such a match, said Daugherty. “I belleve I am not rat as any remarkably clever man. When am in a fight, I fight and don't waste time —oe and touching my opponent. The object is to hurt him and that’s what I'm there for. “Should I, or anyone else, go into ¢ ring to play a merely defensive part content myself with striking blows tha count points, | would not have to lose ti tetting myself to get driving force hehi the swings and punches. I could be always on the move, landing and getting away. tormenting my opponent, scoring poin though not hurting him particularly. Anybody that Knows the game and is not slow can do it. It Is a case with the man opposed to you of taking a tap to give a knockout punch. The man with whom you are playing the game. if it is a real fight, does not bother himeelf to stop half the little slaps delivered. He ‘s waiting hie chafice. Attell ts clever enough to newer give his opponents a chance, and on that score has bultt up a great reputation as a fighter. I claim any boxer can do the same thing. If Attell will spar me 3 rounds f points. I'll show him uo aod demonstra that my proposition Is correct.

FAIR OFFICIALS INTERESTED SANDSTONE WILL CLARIFY MIS- SOURI RIVER WATER. Experiments Made at St. Albans, Franklin County, Convince St. Louis Engineer That His Pian Is Practicable. Bidwell Young, a hydraulic engineer with an office in the Century building, thinks he has solved the pure water problem for | St. Louls. His plan fs to filter Missouri river water through natural hills of white sandstone at St. Albans, Mo., and pipe it into the city. Several months ago Mr. Young submitted his idea to Water Commissioner Fine. who is an advocate of filtration. Mr. ad dda not grow enthusiastic over the han In fact he intimated that it was tmpractica- ble. ut Mr. Young was not discouraged. He laid his plans before the ergineers of the Missouri river commission. hey oe well enough of the project to give Young a permit to experiment near 8t. Alban’'s. He pought a strip of ground one and one- eighth miles in length on the river bank at St. Alban’s. Then he secured an option.on a 40-acre tract adjoining. Experiments Made for Three Months. For three months Mr. Young and a force of men have been experimenting there. And as a result of these experiments Mr. Young says he is prepared to convince anyone who will visit St. Albans that wa- ter pure enough for anybody to drink can be secured by merely allowing the Missouri river water to filter through the rock that forms its banks on the ene and one-eighth mi's strin he has purchased. Mr, Young came to St. Louis from Chi- cago, and says he is backed by moneyed men both in that city and in St. Louis. They are ready, he says, to undertake tb construct a pipe line t at will bring pure drinking water to St. Louis. As a pre.iminary, Mr. Young says his company has offered to sup pply ppre water to the World’s Fair grounds sition, he says, will be taken u Fair company after Director o Taylor has an opportunity to visit St.. Al- bans. Mr. Young says that the project is one of his own developing. He first.began a study of the whi:te sandgtone, or silica, that horders the Missouri river at St. Albans, while at Pacifific, Mo. Stone Crops Out of Ground. He says he soon found that it was a per- fect natural filter and he began to look about to see if the same stone could be found close enough to 8t. Louis to be used to filter are water. He found it cropping out of the ground at St. Albans, so he says. St. Albans is a cross-roads station on the St. Louis, Kansas City & Colorado in Franklin Cunty. It is 40 miles from St. Louis via this road, but only 25 miles due west from St. Louis. The Colorado road, after turning west from Creve Coeur Lake, runs along the south bank of the Missouri. St. Albans fs right on the river, and the one and one- eighth mile strip purchased by Young lies between the Colorado tracks and the riv at St. Albans. The 40-acre tract on whic he has an option is on the opposite side of the tracks. Mr. Young’s explanation of the geological cecnditicns on which his project is based is interesting. lie says that the proper place of white sandstone or silica in nature is about 150) feet helow the surface. This sandstone, instead of underlying St: Louis and the ad- qepent territory at this level, according tb r. Young, underlies the city in the tern of a basin, the edges of which are read ly traced above or near the surface in a’ cir- cle with a radius of about 25 miles Silica Rock Engirdles City. Mr. Young says this silica sand rock rises into hills of grand propoftion at 8t. Alban’'s, at West Point, Ill., above Alon, near Crystal City, Mo., and across the river near the Big Cave at Waterloo, IiL, it comes within 300 feet of the surface The edges of this sand rock basin, our. Young says, have an average thickness of about 100 feet. From St. Albans to the Mississippi! at St. Louis Mr. Young says this saidstone formation dips beneath the ground at an inclination of about @ feet pe mile, seek- ing its proper silurian dept “Just west of the county line it is ex- osed ort both sides of the Missour! rivet forming its geological banks for severa said Mr. Young to the Post-D.s- “As it dips beneath the surface it obviously forms the bed rock of the river for “tea / a mile, and from th‘s point he vary ag imestones. which overlie it may be easily traced to St. Louis, each in its turn being a surface rock and every mite or so sinking beneath tne ground to be succeeded in an ascending series until the St. Louls Umestone forming the bed roc of this city is reached. Closed Pores Would Open Easily. “As the Missouri river passes through Augusta Bend, which ts near St. Albans, the full force of its current {mpinges on the vertical face of this sand stone, and is d3- flected at nearly right angles in a northerly course, There are acres upon acres of this stone in close proximity to the river, sug- gesting the possibility of vast reservoirs of portable water within 20 miles of St. Louis. “The natural action of the river hag for ages closed the pores of this stone at the m.les, pate h. i surface tor | Consult Dr. Bond, about an eighth of an inch, but it requires but a touch from the hand of man to open (them again and develop this natural fiiter to its full capacity.’ Mr. Young says that the product of an experimental regervoir he hag sunk in the solid rock at St. Albans it, to all appear- ances, a perfect water, having a natural temperature of 52 degrees, absolutely ec.ear, tasteless, odorless and as soft as rain water. Believes Quantity Would Be Ample Mr. Young says that sufficient water could be filtered there dally to supply 8t. Louis. Hie states that !In an actual test 6 square feet of exposure yleided 5000 gallons of water per day by capliilarity alone, The absorbing power of this stone is, he gays, far in excess of that amount and shoud ield five times the amount of the capil- lary test under proper conditions.

Diploma, Wedding Ring and Grave Came in Quick Succession of Joy and Sorrow to Mrs. Estella May Smith Culver. BY ROSE MARION. Graduation, marriage, death—the three most important events in a woman’s life— these are what “sweet sixteen’’ gave Es- tella May Smith Culver of 4956 Cote Bril- Yiante avenue. A diploma, a wedding ring and a deep grave—all in one short year. Fate some- times gives much. Less than a: year ago Estella May Smith was a white-robed graduate. She stood in the line of giris whose school days were over. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edwari M. Smith of 2856 Euclid avenue, were proud of her achievements. Her graduation dress was a pretty thing of soft, filmy white goods with ruffles of lace. Girlish of course, but very becoming to its wearer, making darker her brown hair and fairer ber oval face. In the late days of March, when spring came to St. Louis, the young graduate was a bride. Philo A. Culver was the bride- groom, and though they were both young— she 16 and he 18—they loved each other, and that was enough. Death Was Last Chapter. Enough for four months of haippiness, and then fate saw fit to write another chapter Not a happy story this time, although there is a white dress and flowers just as there were before. This is the last chapter, and in it is the pathos. Death, the last of fate’s gifts, came to the child-wife Thursday. She had been sick but a week. Today she lies in her coffin ready for the graye. In- stead of a shroud she wears her graduation dress. Her brown hair is rolled back as it used to be when she was a school girl, and she and Philo were sweethearts. Her face is paler than it was wont to be then, but it has a peaceful lcok as if its owner were satisfied with her little taste of life. Todhy her parents are sad instead of proud, and her boy husband is broken- hearted. But she smiles as she sleeps in her graduation dress with her soft hands folded. At the door is white crepe and black. The white tells that the sleeper is young the black that she is married. Saturday night it will be all over. There will be another grave in the world's great cemetery, and that will be the ‘“‘finis’’ of the life of Estella May Smith Culver, who was a graduate, a bride and a corpse al! in her sixteenth year, CITY NEWS.

BROWN HOME WAS PLUNDERED HEAD OF FAMILY THREATENED WITH DEATH. After Getting Garments, Watch and Money From Clara Avenue Resi- dence, Negro Visited Other Houses and Added to Stock of Apparel. Charles E. Brown, cashier for the E. J. Schuster Printing Co., and his young wife awoke at 8:30 o’clock Friday morning while a negro burglar was searching the bedroom of their residence, 1444 Clara avenue. Now they are congratulating themselves that they escaped assassination. While the burglar was rifilng Mr. Brown's trousers a gold watch fell from one of the pockets. The noise resulting from its con- tact with the floor awakened Mrs. Brown. She sat upright in bed and said: ‘‘Who’s there?’’ In reply the negro placed the muzzle of a revolver before her eyes and said huskily: “Keep still or I'll kill you.” At the same time he pushed her back to a recumbent position. Mrs. Brown invol- untarily seized her husband as she fell back on her pillow, and the latter awoke. started Argument With the Robber. Wher he opened his eyes they looked squarely into the barrel of the negro's re- volver. “Lay back or I'll kill both of you,” the manded the negro. Brown dared to argue with the negro) He muttered something alhout showing the negro where everything was if he would allow him to rise, but the negro shoved the cold steel against Brown’s temple and re- peated his order to “‘lay back.’’ Then the negro, who had meantime picked up the watch, and who had a bundle in his left hand, including the trousers, held the pistol close to Brown's face as he started to step away from the bed. Brown's two children were alseep on a pallet.on the floor near the bed, and he cautioned the negro not to step on them. The burglar stepped over them but kept his pistol leveled at Brown as he backed out of the room. As he vanished Brown says he jumped from the bed and ran to the drawer where he kept his revolver. But he found that the burglar had taken that. He looked out of the window and shouted an alarm as the burglar passed out the back gate. Burglar Had Taken “6 Purse and Watch. He telephoned the mounted police station from a neighbor’s residence, and within a ialf hour a sergeant and two’ policemen responded In the interim Brown found ‘that the burglar had decamped with a vocketbook containing $40 as well as the watch, The policemen started out at once to search for the burglar and the stolen goods. About 4:30 o'clock one of the policemen -re- appeared with a pair of trousers, “Are those yours?’ he said to Brown, as he displayed a pair of the striped va- riety. “No,” said Brown, “mine are solid black.”’ The policeman explained that the trousers had been found in a shed In the vicinity of Lucretia and Wells avenues. Brown accompanied the policeman to this shed, and found thatthe owner of the shed had also been visited by the burglar. The negrd had taken $4.50, and had removed all his visible habiliments from the house, but had not awakened their owner. The burglar was evidently not after clothing, as he left all the garments in the shed. Mr. Brown returned home, and about 5 o'clock another policeman informed him that a pair of trousers had been found in a lot on Belt avenue near Page boulevard. Pants ered : With Pockets Empty. This time the pants proved to be Brown's. In the pockets -he found his pocketbook, minus the cash, but with all the papers and checks undisturbed. While standing in this vacant lot Brown says he heard a woman say that the bur- glar had also been at her house, which he presumes to be in the immediate vicinity, but had secured nothing but a quantity of receipted bills. Mr. Brown is of the opinion that the negro visited still other homes in that sec- tion of the city. He also expresses the opinion that he had an accomplice who knew the interiors of the homes he broke into. He entered the Brown residence through a side window, breaking the screen, and. emerged the same way. Mr. Brown says the negro was yellow in color, with a brutal face. He describes him as being about 5 feet 9 inches tall and wearing a dark sult. Brown says the burglar carried a bicycle lamp, and that, though it was dark when he visited his home, Brown says the green shade on the back of the lamp cast a light over his features and impressed them on his mind. He can readily identify says, if he is arrested. the negro, he ey Huntington Is Better. NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—Archer Milton Huntington, a son of the late Coll's P.
